Strong Justin

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 ;)

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. ;)

And, you know, Baby Jessica.

I never watched Lassie. I know, I suck.

baby Jessica I actually remember.

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