Okay, this weekend was my weekend for punishment and not in any way that could be considered fun. I stupidly read grover's fic, "Agoraphobia" featuring fat!swooning!slimy-cum-soaked!agoraphobic!Justin and the Brian who loved fat!swooning!slimy-cum-soaked!agoraphobic!Justin. Truly a match made in someone's demented imagination heaven.
After being pointed to the perfect ending, I again stupidly read grover's "Ghost". What I couldn't understand and no one with a functioning brain could is how the story could be described as having a "happy ending" since Brian and Justin die (it was fated, it seems) at the hands of Evil!Ethan and Evil!Ben who felt that Brian was taking too much attention from Michael and Justin. I, personally, think the only way the ending could be considered happy is the fact that it actually ends but not soon enough, IMHO. I did find it disturbing interesting how Brian and Justin can now bareback through all eternity but only have to kiss to actually cum. Justin is thrilled by this turn of event while Brian wants to score an orgy.
Did the glutton for punishment stop there - NO! Damn me. I then went on to read "School Days" by Amoeba which I still contend was written by an amoeba since there's no way in hell that was Brian or Justin. Justin, IMHO, acted like someone in need of timeout and Midol since he was PMS'ing his way through high school. Chris Hobbes the great standby for high drama in a fic and his jock friends harass and bully Justin to the point where he becomes withdrawn, sullen, and has a tendency for crying at the drop of a hat. Did our strong!Justin from cannon stand up for himself? No, that would be too easy. An eternity Eight chapters later - after trying to hide what was going on from Brian - Brian just happens to be at the school to see what's been going on with Justin.
These are the highlights to the fic that I truly thought I was going to crack:
"Justin, believe it or not, I'm not just some asshole who bases everything on looks. I don't really give a fuck what people look like . . . "
I still believe this one since Brian fucks some damn ugly men. ICK!
I'm just going to copy and paste the rest of my rant review of "School Days" from my IJ post from yesterday:
"Aww, you're sweet. My knight in shining Prada."
It happens after Brian steps in when he finds out about the bullying.
Oh, and there is mention of:
"Yeah, I guess you are on to me, huh, brat?" Brian laughed softly, thumb caressing the Justin's seemingly tiny hand.
I'm not sure what "the Justin's" is unless it's a new form of title like: the adman, the artist, the older man, the younger man, and so on. I suppose it was only time that they became The Brian and The Justin.
And then there's this:
"I'm gonna have to pick you up, is that ok with you? I promise I won't hurt you, and I promise I won't let anyone do anything without asking you, ok? I'm with you all the way Sonnyboy."
Justin hesitated, but nodded again, and held his arms out to Brian like a trusting child.
Apparently, Justin has a mini-breakdown of sorts after the whole bullying thing, and Brian - recalling some vague documentary on trauma victims - tries to help Justin.
