I liked how you opened this with the phone call to Daphne. She’s always been there for Justin and I love their friendship so it was nice to see it on display here. It provided a nice introduction to the rest of the fic.
It had been everything he’d told Brian it was. Hot, fun, exciting. And it was also over before he was ready. Justin sometimes wondered what would have happened if the movie hadn’t been cancelled and he’d returned to Pittsburgh with a feeling of accomplishment for a job well done. There really wasn’t a point in dwelling on that though, because what had actually happened was that Justin had found himself back in the Pitts…. and absolutely nowhere.
I often wonder how differently things would have gone had Rage been finished. Justin back in Pittsburgh with no real direction is a sad image. I’m glad you left us with a view of him happy and starting to make a success of his time in NY. :)
