Any holiday would be fine, bonus points if they're spending it in New York.

The # of entries combining the holiday tags is a bit too daunting to go through.

eta: some recs in the comments.

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!

FOUND!: There are already some links in the comments. But feel free to keep them coming my way! :))))

(I tried to find a similar post but there is no such tag. The closest thing was somebody asking if some specific fanfics are in character and this is what actually gave me the idea to file such request.)

There are many fanfics out there - epic in proportions, well-written, with great plots. But I have to admit that many of them, even those considered must reads and classics - give me a feeling of OOC-ness. There's Brian - nice and affectionate in a schmoopy way, not afraid of commitment. There's Justin - pliant and a completely damsel in distress-like, letting others abuse and manipulate him. There's evil and plotting Michael that actively tries to break Justin and Brian up... No matter that according to canon!Brian, there's nothing to break up. There's even more evil Ethan, Mel and Lindsay being such bad mothers that their children have to be taken away and even though all of those plots are fun to play with, they're not very much true to the characters from the show.

So I was thinking about compiling a list of stories and authors, that could be considered QAF purists when it comes to characterization. No matter if it's a gap-filler, or an AU story, I just need something to sooth my QAF withdrawal, something that will really feel like the show.

I trust your judgement, even though I'm aware that people can feel very differently about some stories. It doesn't matter, I still want your opinion! (After a while, I'll compile your recs into a nice list and put it in this post, under the cut).

Other fandoms have a lot of it, but I can't say I've ever read anything like it in QAF fanfiction - a nice (or not so nice!) apocalyptic, end of the world, battle for survival, zombies slash earthquake slash nuclear fallout fic where our favourite characters fight for survuval and conquer all, or not as the case may be.
Surely there is something along those lines, somewhere? I'm in a dark, apocalyptic mood. But I'm totally not against the thought of a happy ending, no matter how dire the circumstances may seem.

Also, another quick question... I remember once reading a fic where Brian had ties to the Irish Mafia, and hired a hitman to avenge some wrongdoing against Justin. I can't remember the name of the fic, but I think Ethan was involved and Justin was in trouble for something and went on the run to New Orleans (this rings a bell I think). I would like to know the specific fic, but what I'm really asking is if anyone knows of another fic where Brian does something illegal (and I don't just mean the ususal drugs). Ties to organised crime, premeditated beating someone to a pulp, even something more serious. I would be especially thrilled if the reasons were him being protective of our favourite little blond.
It just seems to fit, doesn't it? We all love him, but he doesn't exactly carry a halo with him, and - to use a British term - he is a bit dodgy, isn't he? It all just follows... in my mind, anyway.

Thanks in advance, you're all wonderful. And congratulations on over 5000 posts! Way to go!

EDIT: Sooooo many links within. Thank you all! Still searching for some more Crime fics though! Anyone? Link to the mentioned story within...

Hi, fandom newbie here.

I just read "Subject to Change" by

themagichour and it's seriously one of the best pieces of fanfic I've ever read in any fandom. It's given me a real craving for fics where Brian and Justin break up and then try to be friends, eventually getting back together - or not, either sounds good. Can be post 5-13 or AU at any point - fics where they become friends before hooking up also welcome provided the boys are IC and there's some delicious angst :)

Longer pieces appreciated, I'd prefer completed fics.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Edit: Thanks you guys! Some great recs here, but more are always welcome!

Ack. I'm sorry to make this my first post on the Get It Here! comm, but dang, I'd really like to find some well-written (or mediocre written.. or written) stories where one or the other of them, well... you know. I love the happy/schmoopie/hawt stuff so very much, but sometimes I just love a good cry, too.

I just read Counting Blue Cars by mclachlan and it was wonderful (and really unique). Doesn't have to be a 'happy' ending like that one. I also read both of kiden's and Five Things Brian Kinney Never Did by ragingpixie (also wonderfully written).I did check the tags for death fic and major character, but didn't find much besides these. Any help would be appreciated!

So fast!!! Thank you for the links. You people rock my world! And you just continue to do so!
