Subject To Change by Starla (R)

Fandom: Queer as Folk US
Author on LJ: soundczech (personal)/themagichour (fic journal)
Author's Website: blatant narcissism
Pairing: Brian/Justin
Why this must be read:

First, this story is an AU. Not an uncommon premise in this fandom, but it's rarely done as well as it is here. Spinning off from episode 121, this story takes on what might have happened if Brian had gone to New York and what happens when Justin runs into him six years later in a club. Both of them older now and wiser (sort of), they begin to form a friendship that surprises them both. The characterizations here are excellent, with a Justin and Brian that seem like real people, not the caricatures that they so frequently end up in AU fic. A truly gorgeous story and one of my personal favorites.

Soundczech have much talent in writing, when I read her stories, my heart broke and I felt like "well, that's why we are human being." On the other hand when I saw Gale acting Brian, my heart broke as well and I felt like " Well that's why I am a human being".

I feel the same way! Her fic is amazing.
