So fantastic! I know I'm going to be quoting parts that everyone else has already quoted, but I'm going to anyway!
There is absolutely no question that Justin is a scheming little shit.
The perfect first sentence. You had me grinning ridiculously right from the get go!
He says or does things, I try not to think about what they mean, and the next thing I know, I’m standing there with my arms or my bed or my loft full of blond
LOL. I love the way you phrase this. I must admit that for me a lot of times it's not just 'what' is written in a fic but the 'way' it's written (which is a bit hypocritical since I'm as coherent as shit most of the time and I think I just proved it in this sentence). :/ :)
He was all red and had little pillow wrinkles on his cheek, so I had to kiss him and make sure he was still alive.
Awww. That warmed the cockles of my heart.
My desire to protect him could sometimes overwhelm everything else. And I knew he’d hate to hear that, even while he was burrowing into me like I was the last safe place on earth.
Beautiful. Since we usually think of Brian protecting Justin, it's nice for it to be Justin feeling protective. And in a lot of ways, Brian is more vulnerable than Justin....and I think Justin understands this.
“You’re considering monogamy… MONOGAMY, which as you so often point out is a word closely related to MONOTONY … in order to fuck Justin without a condom?”
Love Ted and you write him perfectly.
“Sometimes people decide to have sex just with one person, the person they love, as a way of showing their commitment to that person, and to their relationship. They choose to be faithful to that person because they love them.”
That's so Ted.....patiently explaining as though to a 2-year-old.
That is a really brief review of what I particularly liked. There was a whole lot more, but I really have to get to bed.
Oh......I saw above you were wondering what people who didn't comment about the voyeuristic sex thought of it. I must admit I rarely comment on the sex scenes, partly because I sort of assume everyone loves the sex parts, partly because I figure everyone has their own fetishes and partly due to my own hangups I guess. Stupid really since some sex scenes are definitely better written than others and we should let you know what "worked" for us. This was a particularly good one; definitely "worked" for me! The whole voyeuristic thing is very satisfying. ;)
I'm wondering what Justin thought of Brian bringing in the other men, given that he was wondering before whether it would bother Brian if he (Justin) was monogamous. Will he assume that Brian purposely wanted other men involved (even though he will be unnecessarily complicating the issue......I don't think Brian had any premeditated motives)?
Oh god, I hope that makes sense.....I'm half asleep here.
Maybe I can sleep on it and get back to you if I have any flashes of inspiration (although I wouldn't hold your breath!)
Thanks for writing again.
