A Tragedy in Three Parts by Starla (R)

Fandom: QUEER AS FOLK: US
Pairing: Ted/Justin, Brian/Justin
Author on LJ: soundczech or themagichour
Author Website: Blatant Narcissism
Why this must be read:

I mentioned my whole unrequited Ted/Justin guilty pleasure, right?

While I, personally, never saw any hints of Ted/Justin on the show (though Scott Lowell, the actor who plays Ted says it was apparent since season 2), I could totally and truthfully picture it. Justin is, in every way, Ted's type. But then, I'm not out to prove to you that Ted/Justin could exist. I'm here to tell you you should read this fic.

And, perhaps, that I have an unhealthy desire for more Ted/Justin fics. And this fic is the reason why.

I don't feel like I need to blather on about why any Starla!fic should be read. She's been recced here multiple times before, and that should speak for itself. But in regard to this fic, she has this magical way of making you believe in this total non-canon pairing, while still keeping everyone fully in character.

This fic also has, in my opinion, the most perfect line ever to encapsulate Justin's personality: “Ted,” Justin says. “I promise you you don’t love me half as much as you think you do right now. Or you wouldn’t if you knew what a pain in the ass I am.”

Read the fic that spawned my fetish!

So, um, you know the pairing you have is Ted/Brian, not Ted/Justin...
