I hope i'm clear , sorry for my mistakes.

Merci beaucoup

Pre-series / QAF prequels

Hey everyone,

I feel like reading some pre-series/prequel type of fics. Anything goes: fics about Brian's childhood, Brian-Michael friendship fics, Brian-Lindsay friendship fics, fics about how everyone got to know each other and stuff like that.

I've looked through some of the tags trying to find stuff but came up quite empty. Only thing I found were Morpheus' prequels which I have already read. (They are excellent though. Here is the link in case someone else is interested: http://morpheusqaf.com/Season1-Chron.html )

I vaguely remember reading this one story where a teenage Brian takes an overdose of some pills he finds in Deb's bathroom. I think he is really distraught because he has hit Jack back... Does anyone know this story?

Thanks for your help!

EDIT:
Kmboatright recommended Gaedhal's Queer Theories which has quite a lot of Brian pre-series back story - link is in comments

Also I remember a bit more about the fic above (about teenage Brian taking an overdose of Deb's pills). I think once he is at the hospital Brian is given charcoal as an antidote. And I think there is a very brief appearance of Justin (who is obviously just a kid and at the hospital for some other reason). I think Justin just asks why Brian is black around the mouth or something like that. I know, random detail to remember from a fic, but I thought maybe it would jog someone's memory. It's just so darn annoying not to find the fic!
