Damn. I’m really late. Actually, I just came home from two other parties, so it’ll be like I had three in one day!
Anyway, I discovered QaF a year ago when my best friend introduced it to me. I actually had heard about the show before, but the gay rights activist in me was immediately turned off by the fact that gay people were depicted by always having sex and taking drugs. (Think of me as Gay as Blazes-- just as politically correct.) She convinced me to take a peek when she mentioned that they included a disclaimer on the show about how it really wasn’t a true portrayal of gay people—blah, blah, blah.
I fell in love with Justin.
I have to admit I was ready to get up and leave after the ridiculous introduction, but the story of Justin intrigued me. You see, my best friend first introduced me to season 2, and I wanted to know why some sick fuck would hurt him. By episode 203, I was hooked and I wanted to know more about the characters, mainly Justin and Michael. It wasn’t until around the end of s2 that I started to grow to love Brian as well. His behavior was new to me, and it took a while for me to warm up to him.
At the end of 513, I called my friend bawling. She probably didn’t understand half the conversation. After calming me down, she “rec’d” me This is Not a Pick-Up Line. I was hesitant at first because I was just beginning to get out of the Harry Potter fandom and I didn’t think I was ready for another fandom. A few months ago, I found qaf_drabbles (yay!) and I drabble when I’m inspired.
Um, hello, I’m queerasfruit, and I’m from California. :)
