Shit To Do Today

Title: How Lily Found Out About Luke and Reid
Author’s Notes: Birthday fic for the lovely and extremely talented newssodark. Originally posted HERE!

( How Lily Found Out About Luke and Reid )

Title: The Beginning
Author's Notes: Unbeta’d spoiler fic based on the latest promo and future spoilers. No doubt it will all be proved wrong on Wednesday, but I had to write it anyway. How else does one fill the unbearably long wait between Luresdays? *pets shiny new obsession*

Title: Sex and Sandwiches
Author’s Notes: A sequel to Relief. Originally posted HERE. Why is it so hard to sit down and write the 3 essays that are due in like, 2 weeks that I haven't even STARTED, but so easy to write Lure smut? asfgh.

( Sex and Sandwiches (are you sensing a theme here?) )

Title: Relief
Author's Notes: Just a little unbeta'd ditty set after the last episode and inspired by the spoiler pic that killed us dead. Plz forgive cheesy double entendre title, I took a leaf out of the Kinney book. Originally posted in the ahhhmazing LuRe comm HERE!

( Relief )

Title: Sex and Chocolate
Author’s Notes: More LuRe fic. This pairing has eaten my brain. Set in a happy post-Noah future. Unbeta’d, quick and dirty. Originally posted HERE.

( Sex and Chocolate )

So, I wrote my first non-QaF fic! It was rather exciting! It's Luke/Reid from ATWT and I know most of you aren't into that, so no worries if you skip this. If you'd like some background on them, their last episode should be enough to get you through this fic. You can find the clip HERE.

Theirs is the story of an emotionally retarded older successful man and the bouncy young blond brat he just can't resist. I THINK YOU MIGHT LIKE IT FOR SOME REASON. :D

Title: The First Time (and the Second)
Author’s Notes: Set in the (hopefully) not too distant future. My first Lure fic (eek!) and it’s porny. Thanks to my brill beta xie_xie_xie for tackling this new fandom for me! Originally posted HERE!

Title: The Way Things Are
Timeline: 108/109
Author's Notes: Inspired by a drabble by lastglances for the Second Chance Challenge 2 at qaf_challenges. There are lots of goodies there, go check them out! A big thank you to my beta, xie_xie_xie!

Title: Comeback
Timeline: AU
Author’s Notes: Written for the Friends and Lovers Challenge at qaf_challenges. This fic was something really different for me, and I had a blast writing it! MASSIVE amounts of thanks to xie_xie_xie for her amazing beta skills on this fic! I could not have done it without you! ♥

ETA: Now with fic commentary, HERE!

Title: Thankful
Prompt: Thanksgiving Day
Notes: I know I'm being glib about Thanksgiving, but it's a very Australian trait, so plze forgive! Tweaked very slightly from the original posted at qaf_drabbles for the 37 Days of Gusmas drabble challenge. There's lots of good stuff going on over there. Check it out!

*

“Happy Thanksgiving!”

“Hey, Sunshine. You too. Or was that yesterday for you?”

“It would have been, but Australians know nothing about Thanksgiving, and care even less. Besides, it’s too damn hot here for turkey.”

“Poor Justin. Suffering for your art.”

I snort. “Shut up. I know I shouldn’t complain; the weather's great and I’ve sold three pieces already. I just wish I was there.”

“No worries, mate!” Brian says in a god-awful Australian accent. “I’ll stuff your turkey when you get back.”

I laugh. “Maybe I’ll stuff yours too.”

He lowers his voice. “Well, there’s something to be thankful for.”

Title: Rainy Day Blues
Timeline: Post-513
Author's Notes: Written for the Weather/Vacation Challenge at qaf_challenges. Be sure to check out the other fics and please drop the writers a comment!
A big thank you to my wonderful beta xie_xie_xie!

( Rainy Day Blues )

Just cross-posting some fic type things. These were all originally posted at qaf_prompts, so you may have seen them already, in which case just ignore kthx.

( Drabble for the prompt Red )

( Fic for the prompt Artist!Justin )

( Fic for the 10 Word Prompts )

( Drabble for the prompt Moving )

( Fic for the prompt Debbie )

I posted a drabble for the red prompt at qaf_prompts the other day in a bid to inspire some fic (please go write some!!!) and then I wrote another drabble.

I guess I had forgotten how much I enjoyed drabbling. As you know, I haven't written any fic in a long time. A "friend" of mine trashed my writing and it made me lose confidence and well, it's not like I ever thought it was great in the first place anyway, so I stopped. But you know what, I LIKE drabbling, so fuck her, and maybe I can ease back in.

This drabble is for me, but maybe you'll enjoy it too.

*

Justin loves his life. He loves New York. He loves working on his art - all night if he wants. He loves going to clubs and dancing, and fucking - if he wants. He loves being the mysterious guy from Pittsburgh with the ridiculously hot boyfriend who comes to fuck the shit out of him every couple months. He loves visiting home, seeing his Mom and Debbie, Daphne, having Cosmos with Emmett, fucking on Brian’s desk and flustering Ted. He loves working on Rage with Michael. And one day, he knows he’ll have Brian every day again. He loves that too.

( And I guess I better post my red drabble. )

Heh. I just wrote this and was about to post when the challenge closed. But Brian won anyway, so yay.

*

He’s wearing his tightest jeans. And that shirt you told him he looks hot in. Once.

“The ubiquitous Justin Taylor.”

He hasn’t been to Babylon in months.

“I love this song! You like this song?”

Could he be more painfully obvious?

“It fills the void.”

”I haven’t danced in forever.”

Yes. Yes he could.

“Knock yourself out.”

“No rush.” The patented Justin Taylor slow blink. “I’ve got all night.”

It’s like he’s 17 and stalking you again. Pathetic.

But you still feel your dick twitch.

Cursing yourself, and the birth of Justin Taylor, you beat a hasty retreat.

For now.

Title: Push/Pull
Timeline: 117 gapfiller
Author's Notes: Written for the latest challenge at BJ Action. It was supposed to be porny, but we all know I don't do porn very well. However, 117 is such a great Brian episode, and the prompt spoke to me and demanded to be written! It also demanded I use second person POV for the first time ever. I'm happy with how it turned out, and I don't say that about my own fics too often. Or ever, LOL. Many thanks to xie_xie_xie for the beta!

Title: Worth It
Timeline: Post-507 AU. The bombing at Babylon never happened.
Rating: G
Author's Notes: Written for the Challenge in Two Parts at qaf_challenges. A HUGE thank you to my beta xie_xie_xie! I've been trying to write a reunion fic where Brian goes after Justin without the bombing as the impetus for a LONG time, and Xie helped me find a way to do that that I felt was IC for Brian. The gorgeous graphic by testdog65 inspired me to finally finish this fic.
