canon details/info about brian's and justin's childhoods?

[simplystars.livejournal.com]

Hey there. :)

I've only recently come into QAF fandom, and there is a story I want to write for which I need some info, any bits of canon-based detail about Justin's childhood, especially, but also Brian's. I know there's a lot of fanon out there, and it's running around in my brain but what I really need and what I was just wondering about is if there are/were any resource pages around, or if the Showtime webpage had ever posted that sort of stuff? Or if someone compiled a timeline or events from B's/J's childhoods based on snippets/quotes from the episodes?

Any suggestions/links/resources/quotes etc would be greatly appreciated. I'll probably end up over-researching, as is my habit, but hopefully it will lead to a good fic in the end. :)

My timeline is for Season 1, not for backstory.

And, yes, it is down right now.

Showtime posted quite a bit of pendant material during Season 1,
much of which was integrated into fanfiction -- things such as
Justin favorite songs, Brian's e-mails to various people,
etc. Some of that info was included in later episodes --
such as Brian liking to watch Justin sleeping -- while
others were contradicted or never used. But the show contradicts
itself, especially on things like birthdays, Ben's length
of HIV+ infection, etc., all the time, which is why a timeline
for later seasons is almost impossible sustain.

Heh, I guess I won't worry *too* much about it then (it's going to be an AU fic anyway)... I did find a google-cached copy of your timeline which I bookmarked. :)

Thank you!
