Sympathetic to Brian
Dec. 7th, 2009 01:18 am***RECS*** pretty please with Strawberries on top (Cherry's make me gag)
I want some good stories (preferably longer ones) that are more sympathetic to Brian. I don't want Justin bashing, and fully understand that Brian could be pretty crappy to him. But the majority of the stories I read blame Brian for everything, like he is just a huge a**hole who doesn't care what happens to those around him, and then when reading a story and the author makes Brian do something jerky (and lets face it, it's kind of a requirement for a QaF story) all the comments are all "Oh poor Justin, such a saint for putting up with that A**hole!) I some how always want to smack them and say "HEY! What about Brian, they're are generally good reasons for the A**holishness."
Oh, and I'm all for stories that have Justin defending Brian, or understanding why he does what he does (because he's "on to him")
Thanks a bunches

But I fully agree with everything you said. This is a very Justin friendly fandom not that their is anything wrong with Justin or anything, I love him just as much as Brian.
