This photo of Gale and Randy, taken at the Queer As Folk Convention on June the 9th 2013, inspired me to write this story. Pic by my dear friend Kim predec2 and is posted with her permission. Thank you Kim :)

Enjoy,let me know what you think :)

Thank you so much dear Judy for making my story more readable

Post 513 - Justin lives in New York with his son Bryson. Brian still lives in Pittsburgh and is extremely close to Gus. Brian and Justin haven't spoken to one another since Justin left with Ethan 18 years ago. Although time changes many things in life, there are some things that time can never change. When fate conspires to bring them together again, will history be rewritten? Or will history simply repeat itself? Ready or not, whatever may happen, the time has come. 

What would happen if Brian thought his life was about to change for the worse?  He knew he would have to change that life.

This is based on a movie by the same name.  It stared Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds.  Check out the movie.  It's great.

I love to let my imagination run wild for all those times we could only guess what was happening to Agron and Nasir when they weren't in a scene. So I've taken two episodes...#7 (Sacrementum) & #8 (Balance)...from Season 2: 'Vengeance' and filled in some blanks, at least the way I saw them in my mind. I hope you will enjoy them.

Many thanks to my beta, Judy for her wonderful help.

Patrick Jane gets ready for a big party at the CBI and memories of the past seem to be around every corner. Better than it sounds.

Brian and Justin enjoy a secret side to their relationship….

Agron has developed a firm friendship with Nasir, but it is only when he is parted from the young Syrian (and there is the very strong chance the young man could be killed) that he begins to realize there is more to their relationship than that. How his newfound feelings affect them both, and how it changes things between them, is revealed in thought and deed.

Unbeta'd for now, but will be corrected as soon as my beta is free. So please forgive any errors. Thank you, and enjoy!

Debbie finds out it's never too late to say goodbye

DISCLAIMERS:

Everything’s Cowlip’s, I own nothing and no-one. I gain nothing, not a cent from this, except, maybe, a smile from sungaizing85.

NC18 for sex & drugs. No violence.

Inspired by a true story. More on that after you read the whole thing.

Mid or post season 3, during the summer (Cowlip timing is too hard for me to decipher. It’s the summer. That’s really all that matters).  

Featured Story for May 2013 - Winner of the "Spring is in the Air" Challenge

This is for the "Spring Is In the Air" Challenge...and believe me, writing an angst-free story was challenging for me! But I enjoyed it, and I hope you will too :)

****

This story takes place in the "For the love of Kai" realm. You don't need to be familair with the story other than the fact that Kai is Justin's younger half brother with autism that Justin adopts and raises with Brian.

special thanks to the amazing predec2 for the beautiful banner!!!

Agron and Nasir have had a loving, trusting relationship from the moment they got together, but the honeymoon period is quickly coming to an end with the arrival of a good looking pirate named Castus.  Castus has taken a shine to Nasir and isn't afraid to show it, much to the irritation of a certain German rebel.  When Nasir sees how upset Agron is with Castus's presence, he promises to avoid the pirate in future.  When Agron sees them together, he gets the wrong idea and, like an out-of-control battle, all hell breaks loose.  What happens when Agron uses the wrong word on Nasir to show his displeasure could tear them apart.  What happens next is up to Agron now.  

Many thanks again to my dear friend, Judy for her beta help.  I also want to dedicate this story to my fellow MW reader, Boriqua522.  I was given the idea for this story by them and I am deeply grateful.

If you are a Spartacus fan you have no doubt noticed the unique necklace that Nasir wears throughout the final Season of the Series. A little research into ancient Roman history was the inspiration for my version of how and why Nasir ended up with this interesting item around his neck. Agron once again reveals his softer side whenever it involves Nasir.  And for those who are not fans (yet) here's a glimpse of Nasir's necklace.  And once again I owe a debt of gratitude to my wonderful beta, Judy.

Just a little story that popped into my head. Hope you like it :)

Two detectives must question their two only coherent witnesses in order to find out what transpired that night at the Baths to cause the riot.  Season 2.  Written for the dare challenge on lj a while back.

Summary: AU. Brian Kinney did a lot of stupid things when either drunk, high or both. Those things usually and somewhat surprisingly ended up changing his life in some irrevocable way and affecting it for years afterword. But he never thought that taking Japanese as his required foreign language in college on a drunken dare from his equally drunk/high college roommate would have such far-reaching consequences and would eventually, over a decade later, completely change his life.

Written for the Spring is in the Air challenge

Brian thinks its time for Justin to come home.

Written for the 'Spring is in the Air' challenge.

A post S5 one-shot. Brian Kinney is not a 'flowers' type of guy. He doesn't give them, ever, and no one has ever had the audacity to give them to him. At least, until that morning in April when he walks into work to find a hideous little flower arrangement on his desk. Naturally, he makes it quite clear that Cynthia is to shoot anyone bearing flowers on sight should they endeavor to accost him again...

Justin hates being dependent on Brian and asking for money. Will his solution this time be a better one than dancing at Sap's?

-  Feedback is always welcome

Justin just inherited a castle in Scotland along with a few surprises. This is a sequel to The Prophecy which you should read first.

Featured story for March 2013

After 513 Brian and Justin keep things going long distance for almost a year. Then one fateful night, at a family gathering at Deb's, a comment made by someone in the family throws everyone and everything into a tailspin. After a horrible argument the boys split up for good, severing all ties, and the family is forever fractured. Twelve years later, a 17 year old Gus finds photographs of Brian and Justin together and goes on a quest to find out what happened between the two in the hope of mending the ties that bind them all together. Enter various beloved characters from the original show that tell him their sides of the story.

~*~*~*~

Brian and Justin discuss sisters and Justin decides to do something about his.

Life doesn't always run its course like everyone wants it to do. There are times you want to give up, where you want to return to a point, you think you can change everything or do something to change your own course. There are also times you feel truly happy and you think it's the best thing that could have happened, just to recognize it isn't.

After Justin left Pittsburgh, he and Brian broke up. The story begins in 2016. I hope you accompany the boys as well as the other family members on their way.

Justin moves to the south of France to live after his partner dies in an explosion at a gas station. His paintings are a success and he’s quite successful after a year.
Someone that fits the description of Brian pays the price in full of €2000 for his ‘Love Lost’ piece, and Justin thinks nothing of it. Then Justin gets a phone call asking for a painting of a ‘Naked Guy’, which he paints Brian onto. After the ‘Naked Guy’ painting is passed onto its owner, Justin gets kidnapped – But by who?

***Completed***

SET TWO MONTHS AFTER THE CAMPAIGN: Stockwell has lost the campaign and his wife decided to leave after finding out he had something to do with Jason Kemp's death. He's pissed he's lost everything and blames Brian for it. He plans revenge and comes up with the perfect way to get it.... Justin. Waiting for the right time, he takes Justin from the diner and gives Brian two months, the same amount of time it took for him to lose everything, to find Justin. Everyday he's not found Stockwell tortures him. Stockwell leaves the family clues every Friday to help them find him. Can Brian find Justin in time.... Or will he, like Stockwell, lose everything? WARNING: THE TORTURE SCENES AREN'T GRAPHIC BUT HIS WOUNDS DISCRIPTIONS ARE. ALSO THERE'S A LOT OF SWEARING. RATED R TO BE SAFE!!

Justin goes on holiday with his family and meets Brian and
has “The Time of His Life”. You’ve seen the film; here is what happens
in 2001. Jack and Joan Kinney own the resort, and oh my god… you’ll
never guess whom the "Very hot" dance instructor is? Lol, Enjoy.

A very special thank you to Viv foreverbm for the beautiful banner and to Cat britinmanor for being my beta :) (orginally posted on Livejournal on April 16th 2011)

I hope you'll join me with this story. It's not a story about the movie itself but does take place in the same resort. The plot may resemble that of the movie,but I'm doing things differently.

I hope you'll enjoy my story.

Inspired by Frou Frou's 'Psychobabble'. Sometimes the music isn't enough. And memories don't keep you warm at night.

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' 

What if, after their first encounter, Brian unintentionally linked himself to Justin? With a baby on the way, Brian Kinney needs to take up responsibility for his actions and become a full-time Daddy. Mpreg. AU. Brian/Justin.

Thank you again to my beta, amythesw :)

Thank you to foreverbm on LJ for the banner!

'Justin’s Magical Heart Shaped Ass Day' as arranged by Amanda mander3_swish for Valentines Day on the community queer as flics as part of the PWP challenge. Brian loves Justin's heart shaped ass.  mander3_swish also made the banner :)

Brian laments sending Justin running into Ethan's arms.

What might have been going through Brian's head post 2.20. A one-shot examination of his state of mind.

had this idea because my friend loves the stupid Cupid scene with Brendan and Joel. This is an early Valentine's Day fic. What if God made Cupid help out Brendan. warning of lots of bad language and sex. Tragedy and romance

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?

   FEATURED STORY for FEBRUARY 2013

Brian reflects on turning 30. Life after 30's - A Birthday Project For Pam81. This short fic was written by myself for our very wonderful Pam pam81 who's Birthday is today. I hope you have a great day sweet heart and eat as much chocolate as you can!!! Fixed by my beautiful beta Cathy britinmanor

Time line: Season one (Story written on 24 April 2011)

Another **MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH** (Brian has passed away) I will not be writing anymore death fics,you have my word.

After my cousin died a few years ago I actually had this dream. I believe he visited me, and we spoke for a while.

I will be convinced until the end of time this is what happened. He told me in the dream he forgave me for a misunderstanding we had and that helped me move on. So I decided to work with that dream and came up with this, I hope you like it (Of course,some parts are added to this)

No more death fics for me,I hate them as much as you do. I swear!

I can make a story with these two from very weird things, can't I ? lol

We have seen Brian and Justin so intimate in all the QAF - Season 1 episodes. But what is really happening behind the scenes. Are they as intimate as what we saw in front of camera? This is my imaginations of Gale and Randy's stories during the filming of QAF Season 1.

It’s 1887 in England, and the Taylors move to London so young Justin can attend art school. A family who has everything ends up losing it all. Can Justin recover from a tragedy too horrible for one so young to understand? - A Novelette - This story is good if you are learning English. Short & Simple! Banner by Predec2.

This was written for the QAF xmas gift exchange.  The request was for a fic where one of them has cancer.  It is NOT a death fic. It is one of the hardest fics I've ever written.

Comments are always welcome.

Brian is forced to take dance lessons when he loses a bet.  But does his luck change when he meets his beautiful, blond, dance instructor?  B/J AU Romance. 

*STORY IS NOW COMPLETE!*

I  (Yes me lol)  go to the Pitts and meet Brian Kinney at the diner and well, just give the story ago, I think it's quite funny hahaha.

I wrote a letter for a Writer’s Block Question ~ If you could have any fictional character write you a letter, who would it be and why? For a bonus, what would the letter say? I chose a letter from Brian Kinney (It’s posted in this story, if you haven’t read it yet).

Long nights won't be spent alone for Justin.
