Hey :)

I was hoping to get some recommendations. I am looking for some fics that are more Brian introspective or that deal more with how Brian's life was affected by the childhood he had (aka the emotional barriers etc). I really loved Reverbarations because it showed Justin really understanding Brian. Sorry the post is so vague, if it's not right tell me and I'll delete it :)

Edit: got lots of recommendations :D Thank you! Links in the comments!

Oh, you MUST read 'Interval (or what five years will do to Brian Kinney)' (http://dontyouwaitup.livejournal.com/492.html)
by [livejournal.com profile] dontyouwaitup, it's absolutely incredible, a very, very sharp analysis of Brian and his life, his relationships.

If you don't mind self-recs, I've got three fics in which I take something in Brian's past (specifically Joan and Jack, and how they treated him) and how that affects him when dealing with life, Justin, cancer...
The Most Important Place (http://arlad.livejournal.com/10176.html) - post 513, Joan Kinney dies.
Hold Your Head High, Heavy Heart (http://arlad.livejournal.com/30614.html) - Brian feels the shadow of Jack when he finds out he has cancer.
On a Dark Night I Pondered (http://arlad.livejournal.com/9219.html) - Brian reflects on his various visits to the hospital throughout his life.
