Cowrie Shell Bracelet

Okay, I 've just left Ebay and the ever present listings of replicates of Brian's cowrie shell bracelet.

What I'm curious about is there any fic out there that addresses the absence of the bracelet after Justin returns it Brian?

Why did he stop wearing it and when?

Found! Link in comments to fic, thank you!

ETA: I found this quote from Patrick Antosh and thought it was interesting, hmmmm.

Hmm... I think, they used the scene from 215 ep. in 301 (I have no idea why they did)...You know, the one where Brian was waiting for Justin to come home from the comic book store. If you watch these two scenes, you'll see that they are completely identical. Besides, Brian had shorter hair while lying in bed, and when he opened the door to the hustler, his hair were much longer. :)

omg, the hair - you're right.
why do they do this? lol

but then again, they make new scenes for flashbacks (like the ice-cream scene...)
sometimes I just don't get cowlip, lol

Yes, that's a reused scene -- it's not really from
Season 3.

He doesn't wear the bracelet after Season 2.

Well, I'm re-marathoning, so I'll be sure to pay very close attention this time around. I think that when you become si used to seeing something, you don't notice that it's gone until it's brought up specifically, eg 304. I thought for sure he was wearing it at Babylon in 301.

Okay, now it's bugging me. I gotta go see!
