Misfit Justin (or misfit Brian)
Oct. 25th, 2008 11:18 pmHello,
I've recently read mohawking's Unleashed, and its fantabulous concept (and quite a good execution for most part) left me craving for more fics in which Justin is a misfit, an outcast, isolated from the society and civilization, unable to communicate properly or unaware of basic social dynamics (for example, having been brought up in isolation), or forced outside of society by other circumstances (serial killer?alien? yeti? Loch Ness monster? dinosaur? err...). I don't mean stories where he's just shy, defiant or emo, or kidnapped by Ethan (or Mikey), or used by an evil pimp. Certainly, a perfect course of action would be if he was brought back to civilization by the healing power of love (*cough* and anal penetration), but it's not obligatory. I am very interested in this kind of POV, especially if it's well written, heh.
Anywho, do you know any other fics with a similar concept? It can be a misfit Brian, too, actually, but I'm kind of leery of a barbarian!Brian for some reason O_o Of course, if it's good, bring it on anyway.
edit: thanks for the recs so far, guys, but I think I didn't make myself clear before, so I refined description a bit. Please bear with me and my confusing ways.

Date: 2008-10-25 10:04 pm (UTC)Hah, I was was expecting a rec of something by Jan, because I'm familiar with her fics and suspected that this request would fit her genre.
But thank you anyway, I'll mark Gothic on my map.

But thanks a lot for replying!

Date: 2008-10-26 12:23 am (UTC)I think the idea of barbarian!Brian has some merit. I'd like to see what others come up with.

Date: 2008-10-26 12:45 am (UTC)I've been actually eyeing this Mechanical Michelangelo fic from afar, to be honest. Because yes, it's unfinished, sadly. Thanks for the hint on its plot, though. (:

Date: 2008-10-26 01:01 am (UTC)I passed Mechanical Michelangelo over on my first go round of QAF fiction. There is quite a bit to it though so I think it's worth while to see how the author fleshed out the characters and what happens to them despite not wrapping it up.

Enjoy the fuck out of it. I will warn you that it is violent.

...Guess that's what I get for blindly relying on only one source. Oh man.

Date: 2008-10-26 06:39 am (UTC)"Edge of the World" by Crazyfairy: http://www.angelfire.com/folk/defensivewalls/edgeoftheworld.html
Historical fic. Not so much lack of civilization, as a clash of cultures. Brian is a Roman officer and Justin is a tattooed Celt.
"Once Upon a Time" by Moonshadow Woman, one of my favorites: http://www.midnightwhispers.ca/viewstory.php?sid=194
Justin is more seriously hurt in the bashing than on the show and he’s never allowed to see Brian or the gang again. His parents keep him in an attic apartment for years; until Gus accidentally finds him.
"Captivating Coupling" by Forever Folked: http://qaf-fic.com/atp/viewstory.php?sid=8761&warning=NC-17
Justin is kidnapped as a child and kept alone in a small apartment for years. Until Brian is also kidnapped and locked in with Justin. Warning though, it is a mpreg.

Date: 2008-10-26 12:42 pm (UTC)I've read 'Edge of the World' and 'Once Upon a Time', actually. (er, that's becoming, like, my motto lately. lol ._.) The latter is close to what I'm looking for, although this time I'm after more difficult obstacles between Justin and real world.
That mpreg story, on the other hand... :o That's a lot of kidnapping for one fic!

There's a story based off Blue Lagoon where Brian and Justin grow up together on an island and are therefore very isolated from society. It's called Stranded in Paradise and it's by Scoobysnacks.

(flocked though)

Date: 2008-11-04 12:41 am (UTC)So I'm thinking maybe she took down the version that has been up, before she starts posting the new one. Hopefully, then the story will be back up in a couple of months.
If not it's probably on the rescued stories list on Midnight Whispers from before the crash, or there's probably someone out there with a copy.

Date: 2008-11-21 02:22 am (UTC)It's a hustler fic so be warned. In this fic Justin is like seriously fucked up and doesn't know how to function in society unless it's picking up some johns. I don't want to give away to much, but I really think this is something you might enjoy.
