New Fic: B/J: It's Only Time

[xhaleslowly]

First off, a huge *thank you* to the anonymous sweetheart that gave me a Valentine's rose last week! That was very nice to get :X :X

So, in the Valentine's-ish spirit (yes, I know I'm like over a week late, but it's still February, okay? That kind of counts :P), I have schmoopy fic! Just a little post-513 thing :)

Oh, Ethan. Thank you for taking that stupid, stinging comment and making it beautiful.

This had the elegant sorrow that first enveloped Brian in canon, but allowed us to see the righting of the ship and the positive ending that should have been.

Hey Deb... yeah, I never liked that comment, and really wanted to try and make sense of it - or at least try to make it just simply make sense. I remember being stumped when I heard it and that feeling really stayed with me. I hadn't intended on writing this fic, it was just one of those ones that crept out once I started thinking about that line and how it could fit into the future that I like to believe Brian and Justin would have.

Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback... you made me feel like the story did what I wanted it to :)

I'm always so thrilled when you post new fic! I rushed in to read, and then time seemed to slow while I was reading. Very appropriate.

It was so beautiful, so beautiful. My heart was breaking for Brian while I read. Then by the time Justin came home, I had reached tears. Your wrting always makes me feel just how much Brian loves Justin.

I was just as proud of Justin as Brian was, by the end. Really lovely post-513. But then, I adored 'Starting Over' too. It's simply perfect.

Thank you ♥

Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback - and for mentioning "Starting Over", as well. I liked your comment about how time shifted for you while reading this... and also what you said about my writing making you feel just how much Brian loves Justin. That's usually what underlies all my stories, so I'm glad they make you feel that way :)

You made me cry and that's a good thing. Your stories always invoke such emotion from me and I thank you for that.

You should never stop writing!

Your stories always invoke such emotion from me

Thank you so much for that comment... that's something that I always want my stories to achieve... to be able to create emotion in the reader. I'm so glad this one did that for you :)
