Hey all!  I'm looking for two fics this morning.  I know I should know these, but I can't for the life of me remember the titles or authors.

The first on is a long fic.  In fact, I think it includes a couple sequels.  I really only remember that Brian and Justin end up buying a house from a older gentleman who has lived there for years.  His partner used to be an artist but passes away a while ago.  If I remember correctly, he's just been waiting for the right people to come along and he determines that Brian and Justin are those people.  Unfortunately, that's all I remember.  I know it's not much, but I think this fic is fairly well known so hopefully someone will know.

The second fic is also a longer fic.  I don't remember the circumstances, but Brian and Justin end up having Brian's nephews live with them at Britin.  Justin even decorates rooms especially for them based on their personal tastes.  I remember that the social worker brings John and Peter to Brian and Justin's wedding.  I also remember that for part of the wedding, Brian and Justin recreate their first meeting under the lamp post.  They even speak the same lines they did that night.  I remember that Jennifer is like "Is that really how they met?".  I hope this sounds familiar to someone out there.  Again, I think it's a well known fic,  so I am hopeful.

Thanks in Advance!

EDIT: Second fic found.  It's No More Pushing and its sequel Married At Last by Edom.  Thanks for Edom for the link!

EDIT #2: Seems like the first fic is Wren's Homecoming after all.  Here are the links to Homecoming and its prequel Reverberations.

I've never read Homecoming by Wren, so I know that's not it.

Yes, No More Pushing and Married at Last are the ones. I knew I would kick myself for not remembering...I've read them multiple times. I think the idea of them recreating their first meeting at their wedding is pure genius, btw. Out of all the fics I've read I think it's my favorite Brian/Justin wedding scene.

This is chapter 6 of 'Homecoming' if it's not this one, someone else has stolen the idea:

Agreed. That is precisely the plotline of Homecoming.

Yes, that is what I remember. It's really wierd though...I am almost certain (you have me second guessing myself now) that I haven't read this fic before. It looks like it's a WIP and I generally avoid those like the plague.

But, yeah...looks like that's the right fic. I think maybe I'm loosing my mind!

Sorry I disregarded your answer...looks like you were right after all!

LOL, that's ok, and it is a WIP, but it is so very good. A lot of Lesbian!Hate, and some Anti!Mikey. My favorite things ;)
