Queer as Folk Holiday Gift Exchange

Happy New Year! Here's my annual wrap up post! Thank you to all who participated and went the extra mile to share TEH LOVE! And as long as there's continuing interest, I'm definitely happy to carry on the tradition - It's a bit of an annual reunion! I wanted to post everything sooner rather than later so we didn't have to wait! As my neice says, waiting in boring!

[Poll #2097994]

AND

As you begin to cross-post, please remember to tag on tumblr with #qafgiftxchnge as well as maybe @ mentioning @qafgiftxchnge so I can reblog there. (Maybe this year I'll get around to posting that pesky masterlist - she says again for the millionth time, a little more hopefully.) And if you post to AO3, please include it in the qaf_giftxchnge collection. You can also post to the Midnight Whispers collection and read along there.

Also, I back up this LJ to a mirror on Dreamwidth. If you haven't already indicated you do not want your work cross-posted there, please let me know if you'd like yours removed as well. PS - if someone knows how and wants to create a journal theme/layout for the DW account, please let me know! (Still looking!)

-->Oh, and if anyone has a pillowfort account, I created a community there at qaf_giftxchnge.<--

Thank you to everyone who participated and continues to spread and share TEH love of Brian and Justin and the rest of the our Queer as Folk characters. Happiest of New Year's to all!!!!

TITLE: Everything I Ever Wanted
GIFT REQUEST: Fic. fluff/schmooop, canon-compliant, humor Brian and Justin - living together
NOTE: As I thought about Brian and Justin living together, I found that I just loved the idea of them hosting the annual "family" Christmas get-together, so I decided to go with it, and this was what came out. Hope you enjoy!

TITLE: Let's Hear It For the Boy
GIFT REQUEST:Gifset or Picspam sexy fun times B/J of course. I'd love a gifset of them dancing - so many of my fave scenes are them dancing together - the first time in Babylon, the reunion scene, etc.
NOTE: I tried hard for a gifset, but the screencap sites don't capture enough for it not to be herky-jerky and my computer is too old to do the screencaps myself anymore. Hopefully you'll like the picspam.

TITLE: It’s Back
GIFT REQUEST: Fic. angst, AU, canon-compliant, hurt/comfort I'm fine with AU or canon-compliant. Something where Brian or Justin gets sick or hurt, or maybe they're both injured and there's some mutual angst and worry? Brian has a cancer scare? Or maybe Justin has one? They're in an accident or some sort of natural disaster?
NOTE: I hope you enjoy it! Happy Holidays!

TITLE: After the Storm
GIFT REQUEST: Fic canon-compliant, humor, sexy fun times Brian/Justin finding their footing when Brian took him in after the bashing
NOTE: Not sure this is anything like what you had in mind, but it’s what my muses served up. I figure it’s set during the period where Justin is living with Brian after the bashing. After zucchini man and even after Michael’s “he just feels guilty” speech, but before Vance takes over at Ryder and definitely before Ethan. The good news is that maybe if it had gone this way, Ethan might never have happened.

TITLE: A Christmas (Cookie) Story
GIFT REQUEST:i Fic fluff/schmoop, AU, canon-compliant, humor, Brian and Justin - Brian and Justin work together. Other specifications: no BDSM, no Ethan, no Cody, if AU in canon
NOTE: I hope you don’t mind that I took a bit of a different spin on your prompt, and that you like the way it turned out! Merry Christmas!!

FROM: sfscarlet
TITLE: Ode to Uncle Vic
GIFT REQUEST: Fic angst, canon-compliant, hurt/comfort, sexy fun times I would LOVE to see some detailed gapfiller of Brian's POV of the Liberty Ride, from his motivation/decision-making process to meet the group in Toronto and participate anyhow (and why it was important to him to do it)...then why he kept going even after breaking his collarbone. His thought process behind what he said to Michael about "if I can survive this, I can survive anything." Then the two of them finishing the ride together, from inside Brian's head. After that, maybe picking up with Brian and Justin at home.
NOTE: I hope this story fulfills your request. I don’t think I’ve ever written a first person story, so this was a challenge too. Happy holidays.
