I wrote this for the QAF Gift Exchange. It was the first fic I've written in about a year. I'm still a little surprised I was able to finish it.


TITLE: One Need in the Night
GIFT REQUEST: Fic. angst. Brian/Justin. Brian and Justin growing apart, still love each other fiercely, do not know what to do about it
NOTE: Happy Holidays selenebj! This may not be as angsty as you wanted but I hope you enjoy it. Title is from "One" by U2.

Over the last few weeks, qaf_drabbles had a special challenge theme of Rimming vs Blowjobs. I may have found this mildly inspiring and written 24 drabbles. I am trying to stay in the habit of writing drabbles on a regular basis. We'll see how long I can last. With out a doubt the hardest thing about drabbles is coming up with at title for all of them. Sometimes that takes me longer than writing the drabble does.

Here are my drabbles. If you haven't already, go to qaf_drabbles and read all of them.

I put myself up for auction to help raise money for the Queensland Flood relief HERE. I am offering QAF fic and drabbles.

There are many wonderful authors in several fandoms also offering fic so I'm sure you can find something to your liking.

So the incredible xie_xie_xie ran a drabble event at qaf_drabbles on IJ> 37 Days of Gusmas raised money for The Trevor Project by offering a daily prompt from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day. An amazing amount of money was raised through a variety of challenges, THIS POST gives a breakdown of all the money raised.

My contribution was 41 drabbles. Included are my usual mix of pairings and ratings. I hope you find a few you will enjoy.

I wrote this fic as part of a celebration of 513 five years after it aired. It's really an ensemble fic with a focus on Brian and Justin if that makes any sense.

Warnings: None

I signed up. Have you?



Seriously, I hope ALL of you sign up! I love this exchange so much because it really has something for everyone. Since it is open to both fic and graphics, there are lots of ways to participate and so many possibilities for requests. I have been amazed by the lovely gifts I've received, and had so much fun fulfilling my own requests.

I also think it is a great opportunity to request that fic or graphic you've always wanted, but wasn't sure anyone would create. And it allows us to step out of our comfort zone as artists if we choose to. I've written Ted/Blake, Brian preseries, and a PWP none of which I would have thought of on my own, but I am very fond of all three of those stories. Participating in the gift exchange has changed the way I write and think about writing.

So if you haven't signed up, go to qaf_giftxchnge right now and ask for something you really want and volunteer to create something fabulous for a fellow fan. Have fun! You won't regret it.

I really need to do these drabble posts more often, but I won’t dump all of them on you at once. Consider yourself warned for my usual mix of pairings and ratings.
