Gus Grown Up Fics

[well no wonder I wasn't getting any answers and didn't see this here, I posted it in the wrong place! - silly me]

Any recs for fics when Gus is grown up (gay or straight Gus)?

Looking for post high school, college years, coming home to Brian and Justin between semesters, or all graduated.

I've been reading some gus fics where he's a teenager, just wondered if there are any good more grown up Gus fics.

ETA: Good recs in comment.

Growing Up Kinney by Myrna, one of the best fic I've ever read. Justin is going blind and in the beginning Gus is very shitty towards him.
Look after me where Justin is sick (sorry I love this kind of fic). It's a Gus's point of view. Here's the link:http://ellyrianna.livejournal.com/51530.html
What Gus Wants by Branwen777
Never On Sundays by Allie quixotic Gus introduces his new girlfriend to his dads.

I really like "Growing up Kinney" and the stories by freakykat, as federicos mentioned above. Also, I like "Wild Child" by Thyme, the trilogy of fics by sonofabiscuit77, R.C.McLachlan's fics, and "Hell Week" by Mickiebg (sequels are "Karma" "Gene Pool" and "Progeny" but they don't exclusively focus on Gus).

In the past, many people have requested for Future!Gus stories (myself included), so check out the memories.

I adore [livejournal.com profile] sonofabiscuit77's trio of fics: The Lamest Most Half-Assed Plan In The Universe, The Most Boring New Year's Eve Party Ever, and Sometimes Only A Starbucks Coffee Will Do - http://community.livejournal.com/qaf_challenges/64178.html (link is to the last one which has links to the first two)

The same author also has Father of the Groom, which is set apart from the others: http://sonofabiscuit77.livejournal.com/13523.html#cutid1

In these Gus, well, having been raised by all these characters, turns out to be quite the character himself. :D

This is by far the best Gus grown up fic I've ever read. He's in his mid-twenties and working at Kinnetic. I think you'll like it.
You might need to ask Mickie to add you as a friend but she's great and that shouldn't be a problem.

Allie Quixotic's How We Got Where We're Going is a great fic. It had a sequel but I don't think she has finished it, but the first story is 25 chapters and is complete.
