Strong Justin

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

So... the last days I read a couple of good fics, but I realized most of them portrayed Justin as a weak, teary-eyed bottom, who's always the one who needs to be protected, to be taken care of, cheered up etc.

Are there any fics (B/J of course) where Justin isn't whiney?
C'mon... I need some fics, where he's strong and smart and sexy and knows what he's worth ;)

Aahh, thanks for all the recs - I guess I'm busy with reading for the next week, lol

If you don't mind BDSM I have one where Justin is the Dom:

It's still a WIP though.

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

omfg, so many chapters *gawps*
thanks, I'm fine with BDSM, I'll definitely check it out ^^

That's really depressing that all you've read are those kind of stories! You definitely need more of a selection.

One of my favorite stories is called the Fellatio Quintet that shows the evolution of Brian and Justin's relationship in short but poignant vignettes. It's by Eliza and you can find it here (http://elizacake.dreamwidth.org/51366.html).

There are also a couple of future fics that I really like. They're both kind of from Brian's perspective but it has a lot of strong, confident, knows-what-he-wants Justin in it too. The first one's called Forty by Sandra Gia and you can find it here (http://web.archive.org/web/20050308002322/sandragia.brianplusjustin.com/f_01.php). The second one is by rhiannonhero called Forever Changes Everything (http://www.rhiannonhero.net/rhi/QueerAsFolk/foreverchangeseverthing.htm).

These are more plot based than anything. If you're looking for more Justin tops Brian then there are the "Jealousy" series by Danny. You can find that here (http://www.dannysobsession.com/Jealously.html).

Enjoy!

Well, they weren't hard to find, lolol
I went to qaf-fic, hit the 'non-con' button and it was all sprayed out XDD

and thanks a LOT for all the recs, they sound exciting, can't wait to read them <3

I'm often told that I write a strong Justin.

I don't care for Justin down the well - well, not too often anyway.

Despite the physical age difference, I like to see these men as equals.

I've friended you at my fic journal netfics you may find Commuter Flight Stories and But is it Art the type of thing you're looking for.

Note: to other people who are looking to be friended - please don't clog up the getithere with "please friend me" in the comments on this message - it fills up the moderator's email boxes. Go to netfics click on User Info and use the Personal Message option to send a friend request (instructions are on the first post in the journal).

Justin down the well? (is that a term? sorry, I'm not a native speaker ^^° )

"Despite the physical age difference, I like to see these men as equals."
Great, that's refreshing, I second this.

Thank you, I just looked over it... you really have a LOT of stories there, woah.

[netlagd.livejournal.com]

Justin down a well - i.e. he needs to be rescued - from circumstances, danger, himself...

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

thank you ^^

[court1429.livejournal.com]

The phrase comes from, I think, a reference to an old US tv show called Lassie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lassie). Lassie was a wonder dog: always obedient, loved her owner, Timmy, and smart enough to go her own way when the circumstances were critical. I don't know if there was an actual episode where Timmy fell down an old, abandoned dry well and Lassie went to get his folks to rescue him or was brilliant enough to drop a rope down to Timmy or not, but Lassie was always rescuing Timmy from something he'd gotten himself into. Hence, the phrase "down a well" signifying some drastic circumstance where someone needs rescuing. Hope that helped a little. ;)

rahaha, from Lassie?
omg, I watched that show when I was a kid...
yeah, funny story, thanks for telling XDD~

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

And, you know, Baby Jessica.

I never watched Lassie. I know, I suck.

[court1429.livejournal.com]

baby Jessica I actually remember.

Lassie, I've only heard of. Never seen it once. ;)

One of my favorites is besame_bj's Kid.

Brian's particular form of pain management backfires when the tricks he picks up attempt to assault Justin - and Justin fights back. The fic deals with the aftermath.

I can't remember if this is one of the fics where you have to be friended to read, though.

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

sounds interesting, I'll try and look for it, thanks ^^

[darla-isabelle.livejournal.com]

Try Severina's Whenever You're Ready http://severina2001.livejournal.com/tag/qaf+fanfic+-+nanowrimo+2007 and its sequel The Long Road http://severina2001.livejournal.com/tag/qaf+fanfic+-+nanowrimo+2008. There's zombies and definitely a strong Justin.

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

Oh, I remember her style was great, thanks for the rec <3

[masterglory.livejournal.com]

Well, they have already said almost everything, and I totally agree, netlagd, besame_bjare so good to write equal Justin, also you can check the entire work by edom56 and even the ff by wren_kt7oz, especially check for "Experiment" and "a pirate's tale", they features an incredibly shining strong Justin.

Plus, I love so much these authors, they are my favourites of the time;)

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

thanks for the recs on the authors - currently I'm busy reading myself through besame_bjs fics, lol
But I added all the others to my list, thanks again ^^

Try this one:


Easy Out (http://ragingpixie.livejournal.com/207334.html) by ragingpixie

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

Oh, I already read that one a week ago and it was great, but thanks ^^

[b3dst3.livejournal.com]

One Strong Justin you just cant miss!

http://elyxer.momentsgoneby.com/main.htm


Elyxer "Collar bound" and "Leather bound" (BDSM)

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

oh, I already have her page bookmarked, because there were so many fics, thanks for reminding ^^

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

OMG, what stories have you been reading??

Read 's Only Time series, almost anything by ragingpixie, bigboobedcanuck, and vamphile. Vamp likes to throw Justin down the well, but she likes to let him dig his own way out. Read her Keeping series.

Myrna loves torturing Justin, but he's always strong, ie Growing Up Kinney and If You Needed Me.

Everything I've mentioned is in the memories.

[court1429.livejournal.com]

that's what I was wondering! i just made a strong justin tag. now i just have to remember to use it. ;)

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

haha, I was on qaf-fic.com and clicked 'non-con' - then I got greatly written stories, but mostly with justin as, what you would describe as ÜBER-uke in animes/mangas, lolol

oh, yeah, I remember ragingpixie... but I didn't know the other 2 authors yet. thanks for the recs ^-^

[court1429.livejournal.com]

Well, take this with a grain of salt because bdsm isn't my cup of tea, but when I think of strong!Justin, him being the dom in a bdsm scenario isn't at all what I think that description means.

Doesn't mean he's not a strong individual in those fics, but being the dom isn't what makes him strong, IMO. If that makes sense.

[lumcheng.livejournal.com]

Hm, I'm okay with everything, except scat and mpreg, lol

I think, I know what you mean.
when I requested strong!Justin I was more looking for a strong personality, him being not whiney and helpless, instead of rough bdsm-action, but as I said - that's also fine ^^;
