Hi,

I’m looking for two specific fics, I read both when I first found my way into the QAF fandom recently.

Both are one-shots, relating to episode 513.

The one starts with the last B/J scene at the loft, but instead of Brian waking up to Justin having left, he wakes up thinking that Justin’s gone but finds him elsewhere in the loft (the kitchen, I think). From what I remember I think Justin doesn’t go to NY and the remainder of the fic kind of goes through the years of them together. At one point it mentions that so many years down the line (10 / 15 yrs) Brian decides to stop tricking and be monogamous with Justin.


The next one also deals with the last night in the loft but here Justin does leave. However, Brian finds all these little notes that have quotes and reassurances from Justin of his love and commitment to Brian and their relationship all over the loft.

It’s not much of a description, but I do remember both being beautifully and movingly written.


I'm also looking for any fics where Mel actually stands up/defends Brian to someone (the family/an outsider) or sides with Brian about something. Basically, fics where she doesn't always spit venom at him but shows an underlying respect / like for him.

E.T.A: The second fic was found (Link in comments).
I'm still looking for the first fic.
One rec given for my "Mel stands up/defends Brian" Search, still looking for more though.

Could the second fic you're looking for possibly be Feels Like A New Beginning (http://laciudad.livejournal.com/13715.html) by [livejournal.com profile] laciudad? That's truly one of the most beautiful fics I've ever read :)

I think Wren's "Experiment" will fit the description. It's one of the best fics ever written

Especially in chapter 11 (http://www.mags-nificent.com/MSW/WF/EX11.htm)

In my fic Boys Keep Swinging and it's (coming soon) sequel The Only Way Is Up, Mel defends Brian and is on his side. You can find all the chapters in my memories.
