Repeat Retread.
I've retreaded this fic before, but I just re-read it and felt the need to share it once again.

This is one of my favourite fics EVER. It has the whole gang at Debbie's, laughs, incredibly IC dialogue, sweetness, IC B/J romance and hot sex. It's just wonderful.

Enjoy Catching Fire by the incredible flashfly and be sure to leave her some feedback.

Last night I was so excited about you sharing your list. I went and started looking and I ran across Everything At Once, by Plumsuede....Where the F have I been?

I've been in this fandom since 2003, at least as a reader. I had never read it. I'm still floored. SHe is a fantastic writer. So fluid, so vivid and it was like the current in a river....just pushing me along. I loved it.

I'm crashing and tomorrow I start on your list. lol

It's been a week and I haven't forgotten your list.

Slowly, I'm working my way through it. You know. I search and see something 'shiny' and read that.....lol

I've read Subject to Change and really liked that. The same with Raginpixie and the bigboobed one. lol That is where I truly became sidetracked. I moved from there to Julad and now I'm printing out Worth The Fight.

Thanks so much....WOW, I really did miss quite a bit. And to think, I thought I was really activley reading and trying to participate in the fandom. I just realized it was mostly in the middle of the night. lol

	I'm so glad you're enjoying them! IMO these really are some of the best our fandom ever produced, so I'm glad you're able to read them finally. Better late than never! I'm not posting recs here anymore, but I am posting at qaf_recs, so come join and there will be lots more lovely recs in the future! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I have read this many times and each time I read, I enjoy it more. This time my favorite part was the epilogue. God, that was gorgeous. This whole thing is delicious. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It is an amazing fic...but then again flashfly is without a doubt one of my favorite fandom writers. I love everything she does. This one is especially lovely when Brian interrupts Justin's memory of making the "snowflake" cake as a kid with the description of what his "forgotten" first kiss looked like. swoons I will enjoy re-reading it...

	I absolutely LOVE the ensemble cast at the start, everyones dialogue is so IC, and I love Brian feeling Justin up under the table! Then the kiss in the car swoon Not to mention the sex at the end! asfgh! (Reply to this) (Parent)
