Post 5x13 b/j in NYC and vacation fics

[badasnew8.livejournal.com]

Hi everybody!
This is my first request. Unfortunately my idea of Brian and Justin post series is not that of the majority of the fandom, so I can't find many fics I fully like (or maybe I don't know where to find them, that's what I hope!).

What I look for in a fanfiction:
- Brian goes to NYC in a near future (like a couple years after 5x13) and they live there. It can start immediately after the end of the series with Brian still in Pittsburgh or when he's already moved.
- No children (other than Gus).
- No wedding. Or rather, some kind of commitment is ok as long as a big classic ceremony is not involved.
- Angst is welcomed but with Brian and Justin together. No break ups, no major character death. And a happy (or at least hopeful) ending. Or it can also be all fluffy and happy feelings.
- As In Character as possible, therefore no character bashing.
- Length wise, I'd love some multi chaptered ones but I'd go with anything.
I checked the b/j live in nyc tag but I'd like some more recs.
Two fics I liked are The Keeping Series by Vamphile and In Quest of Something by ebbj9891. Something vaguely similar would be great.

I know it's a lot to ask! Otherwise do you know some good vacation fics? So I can pretend they live in NY xD

UPDATE: Thanks!! Some recs in the comments but I'm always open to other suggestions :)

A series I think mostly fulfills your requirements, although B/J split their time between NYC and Britin, is paeansong's 'Talisman of Time.' There's a bit of what might be considered character bashing of Michael and Lindsay, but it isn't severe and is consistent with canon. One warning - the series isn't complete, but is long and still a very satisfying read.

Late to the party, but I can't believe no one's rec'd the amazing Yellow Brick Road series (http://archiveofourown.org/works/2416424/chapters/5345390") by plumsuede. Fandom waited and devoured this series for the nearly ten years it took to finish. It was worth the wait. There are OCs in abundance, but they make sense to the story.

And it's looooooooooooooooooong.

Oh, I thought in this one Justin came back to Pittsburgh and they lived in the manor. If it's set in New York then I'll read it

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

Most of the action takes place in NYC. They do live in the manor, but very little takes place there. And it spans like seven years. Trust me, it's worth the read.

Ok I'll try it. Thanks :)
