Hey, I've just re-read [personal profile] besame_bj 's series and I'd love to keep on reading fics or ficlets in which Justin's relation to Gus is highlighted, it can be antsy, sweet, ... and all the better if it involves Brian, the cwazy lesbians or a very stupid/pathetic Mickey (= Michael)!
EDIT: FOUND plenty of links about Gus thanks to [livejournal.com profile] elvenfixation , see in comments

Who's Mickey?

Yeah, it's MICHAEL. There are people who like him, so please, keep your opinions to yourself in a public forum such as this. :/

RE: stories: have you checked the tags/memories? 'Gus stories' are a pretty popular search subject, so there are a ton of links already posted.

Okay, that's a bit over the top. Opinions are fine. My beef was with the spelling, really. After 8 years, we should all know who the principles are. And lately, I've been through enough posts where the main characters are either misspelled or mis-named. And I can't edit posts, so it's frustrating.

I get what you're saying, and even agree, just...bring it down a notch, k?

I didn't mean "opinions in general," not really. I posted that after the response to your first comment. I know we all have opinions (I myself am not Michael's biggest fan by any stretch), but this isn't a 'rant' community. We should all play nice. :P

P.S. I'm pretty certain the spelling was deliberate. That's my beef.

Agreed. And I thank you. ;-)

No one's asking you to like Michael; lots of people don't, hence the anti-Michael fic. Just remember that lots of people do, and see beyond the first impression that was given to us. Canon was very ambiguious in the early days of QAF, possibly do to the correlations to the original UK version, where the Brian and Michael avatars do end up together. That spawned a huge shipper war early on in fandom. There are folks here that got caught up in that, and they are very touchy about it still. Thankfully, I came along later.

So there's some fandom trivia for you. And I totally understand if English is your second language. Misspellings happen. Sometimes we react to them without taking that into consideration.

Cool.

Oh, one thing...Youtube leaves out a lot of stuff. I've seen some clips there, and talk about holes in the narrative!! If you can get your hands on the dvd's, I highly reccommend it. You'll be amazed at what got left out!

OMG, really!?!?

That sucks!! I got mine from Ebay, but you might need those region specific ones, huh?

the UK version was never showed in France
Ok, je sais que tout le monde n'a pas accès à Canal +, mais elle a été diffusée il y a quelques années. Je ne me souviens pas quand exactement, probablement 2 ans après sa diffusion anglaise, mais pour avoir vu le nom de la série dans la grille des programmes de la chaine à l'époque (cela m'avait même intriguée mais passait trop tard pour moi), je sais qu'elle a été diffusée.

as for the US version, we only had the first season
L'intégrale de la série a été diffusée sur Pink tv et la saison 2 passera dès la fin du mois sur Série Club :)

80$ the season
Pour avoir acheté les DVDs, je peux t'assurer que tu peux trouver chaque saison de QAF US pour environ 40€, sur des sites comme Alapage ou Amazon.fr :)

C'est vrai qu'acheter la série complète représente un investissement et même si comparée à d'autres séries, celle-ci n'est pas très cher, 200 euros c'est quand même une somme.

Décidément, tout le monde est froissé par mes commentaires.
Je ne sais pas pour les autres mais en ce qui me concerne, je ne suis absolument pas froissée. Je faisais juste une petite précision quant à ton commentaire, c'est tout ;)

You could try the German ebay too. It's the same region code. There are lots of offers.

I just put together this list of Gus fic a few weeks ago; it's in four parts - little-gus, teenage-gus, grown-up gus and humor-fics: http://elvenfixation.livejournal.com/3437.html

http://elvenfixation.livejournal.com/3828.html

http://elvenfixation.livejournal.com/3903.html There's a few in there about Brian, Justin and Gus being a family.

...your welcome...have fun.

I'll be updating and adding a few more that I've found, so you might want to take another look next weekend.
