Justin goes out with Steven (Ben's friend) but gets back with Brian - TREVOR not Steven

Help please! I've looked everywhere and I can't find this story - Justin and Brian are not together because of Ethan. Ethan is not in the picture anymore but Justin is not with Brian. He ends up going out with a guy named Steven (Ben's friend). When Steven goes to the diner he sees the gang there (without Justin) and tells everyone that Justin is like a 3,000 year old demon. There's some kind of party at the end and Justin challenges Brian about not going there until he can own up to what he wants. Thank you in advance for any help.  FOUND! IF YOU NEEDED ME BY MYRNA - everyone in this community is just wonderful!! Thanks!

Stubborn Justin.

It's been a very long time since I last read qaf fanfics and I'm trying to find my favorites without remembering anything from the plot. Please, help me to find stories there preferably both Justin and Brian are stubborn with elaborate and interesting character. A brilliant example of such story that fits perfectly is WIP TOWJWAGABI by myrna, except that I prefer finished stories.

Justin gets a job at a New York agency owned? by Brian

I remember this wonderful fic of Justin turning up and being interviewed by Brian and working at the agency. Brian takes him home night after night and even treats Justin to dinner (amazing himself). They have a stormy relationship and in the end Justin resigns after getting another job at a rival firm. I remember that Brian insisted on Justin having a final talk in his office and Justin realized that Brian had a migraine coming on. He searches Brian's desk for his pills and finds photos of them together in the bottom drawer. There's a lot more to it but I think this will identify it.

I would be so grateful if you'd tell me where to find this or at least the name of the author.

Brian moves out when Justin and Melanie are having a baby

Hi does anyone recall a story where Justin and Brian are living in a penthouse or large apartment. Brian has had a falling out with Michael and when Justin and Brian throw (I believe) a Halloween party Ted brings Michael along and he is dressed in a costume that would make it look like he is Brian's partner. I also think in same story Justin gives his sperm to Melanie and Brian is so angry he moves out.

Fic Search- Ben leaves Michael for Emmet

Good evening one and all!

I was looking for one specific fic where Ben ends up leaving Michael for Em. I can't remember a whole lot about it beyond that aspect though… However here is what I do remember: the story was centered around B/J and was rather Anti-Michael, Michael's behavior is what will cause Ben to end up leaving him.

Sorry I know that might be rather vague :( but I thank you all greatly for your time.

Thank You,

FOUND: Long post-513 fic where Justin doesn't make it in New York and goes back to Pittsburgh

I'm looking for a a long post-513 fic where Justin doesn't make it in New York and goes back to Pittsburgh.

I don't remember a lot of details to narrow it down more, except that Justin took up a job drawing a cartoon character that he hated and that he felt a bit embarrassed asking Brian for help. It's a tad angsty, but has a happy ending.

I feel this is a reasonably well-known fic, too, but I haven't read in this fandom for years and going back in the first few pages of the post-513 tag, nothing's clicking for me.

Justin an Artist, Brian a Reporter

I'm looking for a story where Justin is an artist and Brian is a reporter who covers the art beat. He's covered Justin's shows in the past, but never met him, because he's too nervous/shy. Cynthia, I think, arranges for Brian to interview Justin and he nearly has a nervous breakdown.

I've checked a number of tags and can't find it. Hoping this rings a bell for someone.

Thanks.

FOUND: It's My Only Critic by galeandrandy.

Brian and Justin are neighbors; Justin teaches econ at Carnegie Mellon(?)

Okay, I remember a lot about this fic, but some of it may be confused with another fic.

What I'm certain of:

  • Justin moves in to Brian's building, and they don't really hit it off at first. Brian doesn't treat Justin with respect, and Justin is all indignant because he is a professor (or Economics?) at CM. He is older, approaching 30.

  • The story is told from both of their perspectives in the form of journal entries. In one chapter one of them is writing, and stops suddenly saying "He's at the door!"

  • Pretty soon they decide to have a neighbors-with-benefits relationship, where if one of them is too tired/busy to trick, they will have sex

  • Justin thinks he will top, but Brian does some sort of tantric, multi-orgasm thing that blows his mind and he has to work up to topping Brian

  • Over time they get closer and closer, until Justin realizes they are pretty much dating, and Brian freaks out with his usual commitment issues. Justin lays down the law and calls Brian on being stupid.

Stuff I'm not 100% about:

  • Justin has an ex (?) come to town and they have a threesome with Brian. Justin's ex is black.

  • Justin knows Ben, and Mikey and Ben try to get Brian to meet Justin over dinner before they realize they are neighbors.

  • Pretty sure I read it on livejournal.

  • Justin renovates his loft's kitchen? Some sort of blue and white theme?


This has been driving me crazy; even if it isn't online anymore, if you remember the title at least I would have some piece of mind!

Justin/Brian adoption stories

Hey, everyone. I'm looking for some stories where either Justin or Brian were formally adopted by Debbie (not where Brian or Justin just move into her house). I know I saw a description of a story somewhere where Debbie adopted Justin at a young age, but I didn't get around to reading it. I searched for "adopt" in the tags but came up empty.

Any and all suggestions would be appreciated! :)

Update: [livejournal.com profile] kellydeer found the story I was thinking of. Does anyone else know of other stories like this one?

FicSearch: Hobbs in love with Justin

Hello. After searching and reading a lot of JealousBrian Fiction I’ve remembered another one I read once… unluckily I cannot remember title and authors. But maybe you can help!
Here is the plot. Chris Hobbes is actually in love with Justin and, in a way he is convinced that Justin would have been with him if not for Brian. So when Brian and Justin take a pause after a fight Hobbs (who is kind of stalkerish) thinks this is his occasion to be with Justin. Of course this isn’t true at all. In effect Justin is even a little bit freaked out by Hobbs’ interest in him. It wasn’t an AU but a little bit of a “what if”. The bashing happened. Ethan and Cancer too. But I’m  not sure about the bombing, since the fight “could be” (but could not be) the one that the boys have during season 5. At the end Brian and Justin were together but I do not remember what happened to Hobbs.
I’ll let you know that it’s not “Spring Fever” since I’ve already checked it as all the fiction in the justin/hobbs and justin sees hobbs tags but I'm kind of slow to read it all so maybe some of you can help me!
Please please please!!! Can some of you wonderful people (eheheh) help me???

EDIT: I'm still searching for it. In the meantime in the comments there are a couple of interesting suggestions of something similar. But if any of you can help me to find it I'll be so happy!!! :D

Brian throws Justin Out / Justin discovers he has brain tumor

I am searching for a story where Brian throws Justin out and he goes stay with Debbie. He goes to the Dr. and discovers he has brain tumor. Brian over hears family talking about how tired Justin is and asks him what is wrong. Brian fights to get Justin back. I think I remember Michael telling Justin that Brian is feeling sorry for him. I remember them reuniting and when Justin has surgery to remove the tumor it has disappeared or shrinked so he could live.

I have searched the tags, justin ill, and brian/ justin with brain tumor and could not find it. It is similar to (If you need me by Myrna) and  (Parameters) but they are not it. Please help I have been searching for weeks.



****FOUND!!!!!!!!

Different bombing scenario

Yes, I did look through the tags and did not find this. And I definitely could have missed it, but what I'm remembering is that Brian was not on the way to the airport, but was with a trick when the bombing happened. He goes to the hospital and Justin is sitting there covered in soot. Justin hugs Brian and smells the trick/sex on him and pushes him away.

Am I mixing up stories between Kimberley's "Incendiary" and another story? I know in "Incendiary" the loft is on fire and Justin's hands get burned, but I just remember this one part of the story that I'm trying to find where Justin pushes Brian away after smelling the scent of sex on Brian.

Thank you in advance.

Justin Allergic to Condoms....?

Hello, I'm looking for a fic where Justin is allergic to condoms, i know i bookmarked it when i originally read it but have cobed through all my bookmarks and can't find it...
I know its by [livejournal.com profile] galeandrandy ut cannot for the life of me remember what fic and i really don't want to go through all of them as ive already got two fics on the go!
I remember that justin had to find 'The one' as he could't have sex with a condom so the person he lost his virginity had to be special, i also remember that he told brian about this quite late in the fic (its was a WIP the last time i read it and went up to chapter 7, whether it is now i don't know) it was revealed to Brian about chapter 6/7, i think justin might have ended things with brian because he didnt think brian loved him enough to give up the tricks...
thats all i really remember ... so if anyone can help you are amazing! because is really bugging me now!

Thanks in Advanced!

Brian's older boyfriend (Evan?)

Hello, I'm looking for a series (believe there was also a follow-up series) where Justin learns about Brian's boyfriend from the time he was in college. Justin is convinced Brian was in love with this guy (I think his name was Evan) and become very jealous - meanwhile, the ex-boyfriend wants Justin back. Of course it turns out the guy never loved Brian. In the sequel, the guy works a free-lance gig with Brian, and Justin gets jealous again.
thanks!

FOUND (and even better than remembered)! It's "Love Remains" by blissink
The sequel is "Saving a life"

Justin leaves Brian, future fic.

Hey,

I'm looking for a future fic where Gus is in his late teens and is trying to get Brian and Justin back together. Brian had a heart attack at some point but never adopted a healthier lifestyle so Justin leaves and buys a condo in LA because he won't sit around and watch Brian kill himself. I've looked throught the obvious tags, (really, I swear) but I haven't found it yet. Maybe it's there and I'm just blind. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Thanks!!

Brian and Justin High School au

Hey guys, I'm looking for a specific fic where Justin and Brian meet at a beach over summer? Brian takes Justin's v-card and Justin ends up being besotted with him. For the rest of the summer Justin trails after Brian, and Mikey is annoyed. Then they go back to school and find out that Justin is the new transfer (?) student? I remember Brian still being older than Justin by a couple of years...

Also, I'm not sure if this is part of the fic or is another fic, but Brian has a band? and Justin tries out for it? and theres this competition where Brian comes really close to winning but doesn't end up winning but they all think thats okay...

I'm sorry these descriptions are all very jumbled up and vague but any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers guys!

Angsty recs

Hi!
I know this is in no way an original request or anything, but I'm addicted to angsty fics and every few months I like to ask around for new or rediscovered fics to break my soul. A little. Or, you know, A LOT.
I can read about everything. Whichever season, happy ending, not ending up together, death!fic, kid!fic... I do have my favourites, however:

- First break up. During or after the Ethan arc. Like Mesa's fic? That's a perfect setting.
- Post 5x13 but not together.
- Brian getting older and freaking out.
- General breaking up.

Only requisite is for the fic to be rip-my heart-out-of-my-chest angsty. And not much OOC, pretty please! They can be WIP, just, not abandoned works, cause they make me so sad!

Thank you, guys!
