Another Domesticity fic. This one was a bit unwieldy so Josselin was kind enough to read it through and offer suggestions. And words. All much appreciated!
don't know which of you gets credit for this line:
"Did you know," Justin said conversationally, "That a lot of the time when you're talking to me, what I actually hear is the wah wah wah from a Charlie Brown cartoon?"
Jesus Christ, subtlety was wasted on that little fucker.
I always have to laugh at the way you write Brian. He's as bad as you make him out to be but in such different ways from his 'reel' persona. But he's so deliciously in love with Justin in your stories that he makes me want to hug him when I'm not wanting to strangle him.
As always I love the sarcastic tone of the humor that you've infused throughout the this whole series. I also love how you slip those tiny moments like this into the middle of it:
"I know it drives you crazy that you can't undo it. Whenever it comes up it's like...you look... You want to undo it. Make it not have happened. But you can't."

I am...totally incoherent about the rest. It's too gorgeous, even the pain and rage, so I'll just stare at it like a sculpture, mesmerized and open.

"My sister's kid," Brian said easily. "He goes to special school so I like to take him out in the world every once in awhile."
"Really?" the guy said, looking back over his shoulder and craning his neck to get another look. "He's hot."
"Yeah, but retarded, so..."
"Man," the guy said, slowly shaking his head in consternation. "You think he's okay there by himself?"
Brian shrugged. "Eh, he lives he lives, he dies he dies."
Honestly Myrna I loved this so much it made the fic for me.
