Blind Justin

[deviant-queen.livejournal.com]

I started to look for this fic in this post, but now I remember exactly what I'm looking for. It was a fic on a personal website, not on bjfic.net, so it's out there somewhere. It was an AU fic in which Justin was blind, he and Brian fall in love, etc etc. One chapter I remember is Justin finally getting his sight back after surgery and Brian being nervous Justin won't like what he sees. Of course, he does. First he see's his mom and the doctor and then asks where Brian is. Brian walks in and Justin says he's either "beautiful" or "gorgeous". Hope this is clear enough.

Thanks in advance! :)

It sounds like 'eye of the beholder'

I think that's the one cowboystracker mentioned in the post I linked up there, but it's not the one I'm looking for now. But thanks for that link, I'd like to read that one too. :)

Nope, it's not the same one, jsut the same name, check it out.

Scratch that. vlredreign just reminded me that they start off as email buddies and I think Brian comes to visit Justin and finds out he's blind.

I did. I know it's the same name as the one where Brian was blind, but it's not the same fic. But this is the one where Justin is a massage therapist and Brian goes on vacation, right? In the one I'm thinking of, it doesn't take place on a vacation. Justin lives at home with his mom, so it takes place in Pittsburgh.

could be eye of the beholder... but maybe not...

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

Both those links are for the same fic. I know which one you want, it's the one where Brian is in Pitts and Justin is in CA, and they're email buddies, yes?

I've read it, let me see if I can find it.

[deviant-queen.livejournal.com]

Yes! That's it! I'd completely forgotten about that part until now. Hope you can find it. :)

the one you mentioned is "going the distance". at last i believe this is what you mean...

[deviant-queen.livejournal.com]

Yes! That's it. Do you know where I can find it?

Thank you so much! :)

[kiddoditto.livejournal.com]

you are welcome.

never read it before. is it good?

[deviant-queen.livejournal.com]

I remember liking it. I mean, they're both 17 so it's really AU. I don't know if that's your thing or not.

It's not IC, but it's cute, you know? Schmoopy. I liked it, but then, I've been known to indulge in the crackiest of crackfic.

See, now I wanna re-read this...lol. Torchwood COE is depressing me at the mo'.

[kiddoditto.livejournal.com]

nearlly everybody thinks children of earth was/is depressing... rumors are that their will be a 4 season. but most people already say that they won't watch it because of what happened in episode 4. unfortunatelly i have to agree (sucks for the producers, but personally i think they killed their own show)... never liked the show because of the scienfic part, but i liked it because of the connection between the people...

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

Actually, I wasn't ever a big fan, I'd seen a few eppies. I thought COE was a great story. Yeah, the Ianto thing, not so cool, but the subject itself and especially part 5, that was really good storytelling. Anything that deals with kids and death is gonna be a bummer, but I liked that it showed Jack having to sacrifice to make up for an earlier decision. I think a lot of people missed that part. First time around, he sacrificed that which did not belong to him. Second time around, karma was a bitch and made him pay for it. It wasn't his place to do what he did in 1965, regardless of the why.

So there's my objective view. lol
