Looking for 4, maybe 5...

So, I just got my DSL back and instead of catching up on lj and email and life, I'm procrastinating. With fic. My list of lost stories has grown and I apparently suck at Advanced Googling, so I'm hoping that some of you will know some of these off the top of your heads:

1. Post-S2. Brian's POV, something about the Ethan affair provoking a thought worthy of a teenaged girl: I can't believe I let you fuck me.

FOUND: The World Falls Apart in Just Seven Days by adis723.

2. Brian's reading aloud to Gus. The book's format is similar to Good Night, Moon. Only the narrator says "I love you" (instead of "Good night") to anything and everything. Of course, cuteness ensues when Brian gets to the line "I love you, sunshine", but IIRC, he does manage to say it.

FOUND: Welcome to the Monkey House by mcpofife.

3. Post-series. Brian misses Justin but resists any suggestion from those around him to move to NYC. I might be mixing up two stories, but I believe that this one also has Brian & Ted friendship, and Brian telling Ted something endearing about Justin and socks. In the end, Justin asks Brian to move to NYC, which is all Brian was waiting for :)

FOUND THE SOCKS! Beyond the Yellow Brick Road by plumsuede.

Still looking for Justin asking Brian to come with to New York.

4. Justin's stoned. Among other things, he hallucinates that the couch in the loft is a white elephant and starts crying because Brian has no peanuts to feed it. It's freaking hysterical :P

FOUND: Caution by ragingpixie.

I can't shake the feeling that at least a couple of these are obvious, but I just can't remember. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Big thanks to weirdqafan and seanmegansean :)

Ah, I must be mixing up two stories, then. I loved Framed, and I started Yellow Brick Road, but decided to wait until it was completed. Does it have the thing about the socks? Maybe if I start re-reading now, it'll be completed by the time I get to the end. Here's hoping :) And thanks!

Oh it definitely has "the thing about the socks"! That was one of the most adorable things I've ever read. I'm not sure if it will be completed by then (depends on how fast/slow you read of course :D) and I'm usually not a big fan of WIPS, only in this case, even if there were never another word to follow, you should still read all of what there is right now. I've never seen anything like it in fanfiction. And even though I don't know anything about you but that you loved "Framed" (good start LOL) I think it's safe to say that it'll make you laugh and cry and just fall in love with it. And you're welcome. Glad I could help ;-)

Yay! And yes, Framed was brilliant and the socks are a fabulous detail (note how how it totally stuck with me). Hmmm, maybe I'll indulge and re-read both stories, heh. Thanks again!
