J/E/B fics.

I'm looking for your favourite post Justin/Ethan breakup fics. Particularly where Ethan observes Brian/Justin back together, and realises he never stood a chance ;))

There's one where Ethan is watching B/J dance at Babylon and then watches them fucking in the backroom. It's v v hot and Brian notices Ethan watching just before they leave. I think there may have been a smirk involved. There's another one too where he watches them at Babylon and ends up getting really drunk and sleeps on Ted's couch after he can't manage to get himself home. There's also one where B/J are in a cd shop and Ethan watches Brian checking out some guy in the country music section. Then Justin calls him over to show him a cd with a song they'd danced to at Babylon. Does anyone know what they're called?

I'm in the mood to read any of these that you may know of. Especially the ones that involve a confrontation with E/B. It's one of my fave fic premises. You just know that Brian loved that he could rub Ethan's nose in it!

There's the one (is it Omelet? I just can't recall). Anyway, Ethan comes back to the Pitts a big star who wants to "recapture his muse" so he performs at Babylon. Justin goes to confront him and accidentally calls him Ian, Brian is there, they laugh and go away to dance.

Then there's a scene that sticks in my mind but I'm not sure if it's from the story I just referenced or another one. It's also at Babylon and Mikey drags Ethan up on the catwalk to watch B/J and tells him that everything Justin does is for Brian. Even kissing Ethan and leaving with him at the Rage party was all about Brian and nothing to do with Ethan. Maybe one of you with much better memory will recognize these descriptions.

The Omelet one that I know of is where Ethan comes back and says he has HIV and BJ freak out and go get tested, and wait around nervously for the results. :*( I'm pretty sure I bawled on that one. I want to read the "recapture his muse" fic that you mentioned though. That sounds good. Hopefully someone finds it.

Thanks. I couldn't even remember who wrote Omelet so I could doublecheck, just thought I remembered Ethan playing a part.
