Nice...although I'm still wondering how a picture of roses can be phallic? FanSee

I'm very curious about this, too.

Maybe the stems? And they've got thorns.

Now, if one were to look at what's on the other side...

I probably didn't make this clear for people who weren't terribly famililar with The Little Prince (the book), and my wording didn't necessarily help, but there are no roses in the painting. At least, not literally. The buyer asked what the inspiration was for the painting, and Justin responded honestly.

This is more a reference to The Little Prince (the book) than anything else, as the little prince spends the second half of the book trying to get back to his rose. Justin is finally where he needs to be (with Brian), so he's back with his rose, in a way...and I realize that sounds totally lame when it's all written out like that, but yeah. Before, he was focusing on baobabs, but the re-prioritizing has helped him focus on roses.

...Does that make sense?

Okay, I've been itching to answer this question since stories went live. There are no roses in the painting, but they were the inspiration. This is more a reference to The Little Prince (the book) than anything else, as the little prince spends the second half of the book trying to get back to his rose. Justin is finally where he needs to be (with Brian), so he's back with his rose, in a way...and I realize that sounds totally lame when it's all written out like that, but yeah.

It is a good story with a happy ending. I think that you've written very believable turning of events after Justin's moving in NYC. Unhappiness, restlessness, longing for what was behind him in Pitts and finding his anchor all over again in Brian! And associations with roses were great!

Thanks!

Thank you! I strive for realism in my fics, so it's very important that you thought it was believable. =)

That may be the truest sentence ever written.

After a summer in NYC, that's the conclusion I arrived at, and I figured it was probably fairly universal. I'm glad it went over well. =)

"....you don’t need to prove your undying love with real estate. You know that, right?"

BEST JUSTIN RETORT EVER! LOL.

Tee hee! Justin knows how to nicely tell Brian no, doesn't he? =P

Thank you so much.
