Thanks so much. I'll try to keep it up in future. (Brian!muse would add a snarky comment here, but I'll let you fill that in yourself)

Wow, this story is really great!
I'm loving it so far, but I feel angst about to come in..
Hope you'll post next chapter soon!

faramir_boromir March 17 2006, 19:14:16 UTC

The next segment's up. Get all the angst you want.
Thanks for the positive feedback--it always means so much.

Well, I got my answer from my previous comment answered in this chapter regarding how long Justin's been in NYC. This was a very good entry. Not at all obvious you are new to writing these guys. Both of them seem very in character.

Thank you very much! I appreciate hearing that the guys sound as they should.

I love this part.

But for anyone who considered his eyes, well, his eyes told a different story. The blue there wasn’t unadulterated joy from a carefree life, but something much older. Darker. He’d known pain. Someone who suffered lived behind those eyes. There was more than a hint of anger to go with the sadness, too. If you could see into them long enough.

That's a perfect way to describe Justin, no one goes through the stuff Justin did without it leaving it's marks. That paragraph reminds me so much of a line in one of my favorite songs. The line is "There's a journey in my eyes, and it's getting harder to hide."

The one thing he needed was safe, on his keychain: the key to Brian’s loft. Anything else he needed, he could find in Pittsburgh. Fuck New York.

Exactly. Justin wants to be there for Brian, he needs to be there for him and I think Brain will need Justin although he'll probably never admit it out-loud.

I've thought long and hard about that keychain. I think it speaks to where Justin's real priorities lie.

Glad you're enjoying this installment.
