Sympathetic to Brian

[colormecrazy-9.livejournal.com]

***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

In addition to the specific authors rec'd to you here, and qaf_faves, and Queer Eyes, which are linked on the Sidebar, check out qaf_retread (also linked on the Sidebar); it's a comm of fandom classics. I'd also recommend all of severina2001's and suzvoy's fics. There is a lot of well-written fic in this fandom; you have lots to look forward to!
