TV Convention with the cast of Queer as Folk in Los Angeles June 9, 2013

Thanks to Midnight Whisper to again allow us to promote this event among the readers and members

Brian has a secret past that is about to be revealed. Old demons will need to be dealt with, and new ones will emerge. How will Brian’s past affect Justin, and their future together?

Was it merely serendipity that brought Justin to that lamppost on that fateful night, or was it a preordained event? This is a tale of pain and struggle, and love and hope. Where old characters are merged with new ones and life takes some very interesting turns for the gang and especially for Brian and Justin.

Note: This story is a repost. It is the first in a series.  The sequels are 'Return to Me', and  'A Stitch in Time' 

Brian and Justin are finally together, but when tragedy strikes, their happy home is turned upside down and everything seems to fall apart. What will happen when Justin makes a tremendous mistake? Will Brian be able to forgive him, or will they part for good this time?

Are there any winners in love?

Justin narrates his own version of the B/J love story in this AU version.  He meets Brian the day that Jason Kemp’s body is found.  (S2, E10).   The timeline is adjusted in that Justin has completed a 4 year art degree.  He’s 22, has had to hustle for survival and is tougher than he was in the series.  Brian is slightly OOC.  Inspired by the movie “Boy Culture” (X=J).

This is an AU story that splits off from the original series at the end of Season 2.  Justin leaves Brian for Ethan, per series, but Justin is happy with Ethan for two years (not just a few months).  Brian is OOC from the original series - his outlook on life is different.  Will Justin and Brian find each other again?  How will a possible reconnection affect the rest of their lives?

Brian and Justin have a past that none of the gang know about.

Justin Taylor is the guardian of his five younger siblings after their parents disappear.

Sequel to "Bless the Beasts and the Children."  Justin gets an unexpected art commission just before he and Brian plan to host Gus and the Munchers for Christmas at Britin.  What will happen, though, when a certain someone decides to surprise Justin by coming to NYC to get him? **STORY IS NOW COMPLETE!**

Happy Thanksgiving to all my readers who are celebrating the holiday.  For those who don't, I still hope you have a wonderful week full of things and people to be thankful for.  

For this year's annual Thanksgiving story, we move forward in time to the second year after Justin has moved to New York City.  He and Brian see each other as often as they can, but it is far too seldom for either of them.  When Justin is invited to spend his second Thanksgiving away from Pittsburgh with Mel, Linds, and Gus in Canada he is happy to go thinking he'll see Brian there.  Brian himself crushes that dream.  But will Justin find himself having more to be thankful for than he thought he would?  Read on to find out.  Many thanks to Judy for her beta skills and Marika for the lovely banner.

I know that i'm adding yet another story but i'm currently updating my old ones so i hope you guys don't mind.

Due to recent decline of my story at first I said I would not put this up for future readers but I miss the readers I lost so i thought I would   THIS IS NOT A RAPE fic.    Somthing in the most recent chapter made it seem that way but if you read on you will see that it is not.   I treasure all my readers and value comments good or bad but for people to think wrong me I dont like.  I invite you back to my story i promise you will be glad you gave it another chance
