First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to all of the American members! This topic came up during a car ride home with my roommate, so it seems a relevant good wish to make before proposing it haha

SO ANYWAY. My roommate and I were talking, and we came to the conclusion that every sex scene that has ever been in QAF was used as some sort of plot device or has been important to a character arc. We tried to stump each other with this theory, but couldn't do it! So I need to bring it to the bigger table. They're all aesthetic, of course, haha, but: do you all agree with this unproven theory? Was there a point to every one? Or was this another thing Cowlip couldn't get consistent? Feel free to point out any that you can't see the bigger picture~ behind or whatever. This holiday weekend I'll need some good entertainment.

(AND SPEAKING OF LONG WEEKENDS, if any of the members here are into the RP scene here on IJ, a small group of people and I are trying to put together a group storyline that would take place in real time and because I don't want to openly waste room advertising when it's just a side note here: the information on that is all here, if anyone is interested.)

Notes: I know I'm being glib about Thanksgiving, but it's a very Australian trait, so plze forgive!

“Happy Thanksgiving!”

“Hey, Sunshine. You too. Or was that yesterday for you?”

“It would have been, but Australians know nothing about Thanksgiving, and care even less. Besides, it’s too damn hot here for turkey.”

“Poor Justin. Suffering for your art.”

I snort. “Shut up. I know I shouldn’t complain, and I’ve sold three pieces already, so that’s good. I just wish I was there.”

“No worries mate!” Brian says in a god-awful Australian accent. “I’ll stuff your turkey when you get back.”

I laugh. “Maybe I’ll stuff yours too.”

He lowers his voice. “Well, there’s something to be thankful for.”

Happy Thanksgiving to my wonderful friends list.

Let's see..

Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, yams, ham, prime rib, cranberry sauce and deviled eggs.

I am 2 seconds from a nap.

Oh, and I'm in Oregon, and guess what???

It's raining. lol Ah, Oregon Liquid Sunshine, makes everything all green.

Hope everyone is having a great day, and if you don't celebrate...go stuff yourself anyway.

I love my flist. Many of you I've known for years, some just a few months. You guys make me laugh, make me think, make me crazy...and I wouldn't have it any other way.

*hugs teh flist*

Oh, and cause Mistress Bunny asked...

What Brian/Justin scene makes you melt?

There's several, but most of those are sexual. *g* However, this one is so schmooptastically delicious, you can't help but say, "Awwwwww."

I give you Chiquitita.


Shine once more, like you did before, sing a new song Chiquitita

The lyrics are very fitting for this scene, because Justin was still finding that thing that made him Sunshine. And Brian, well...Brian wanted to give him a dance that he'd remember.

Sigh.

The gif is from the lovely and talented pfodge.

Happy Turkey And Pie Day!!!

I know everyone is busy writing for challenges and exchanges and stuff at the moment, but remember that the prompts here never expire and you can come back and write for them anytime!

So, I have the prompt it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Have fun ;)

Notes: Thanks to firehead30 and zaipixie for catching my errors. And for being my bitches.


Deb got her wish, and the house was filled to bursting this Thanksgiving. The girls were home from Canada, and Justin flew in from New York. They stood around the table, hands clasped and heads bowed.

“Everyone name one thing that you’re thankful for this year. Em, honey, you wanna start?”

“Well, I’m thankful that business is good.”

“Brian?”

“I’m thankful that Justin didn’t lose any weight off his ass-“

He was rewarded with a smack upside the head from Deb.

“Mama?”

“Just a minute, Jenny,” Mel whispered.

“But Mama, I havta poop!”

“Well, there’s something to be thankful for.”

Tell me a scene that makes you melt. It has to be a scene that causes your heart to skip a beat every single time you watch it.



I can pinpoint it to the nanosecond: see the look on Brian's face right before he closes in on Justin for the kiss? That's it; that's my scene; that is why I love this show so much.

First, Happy Thanksgiving to all!

A couple of new fandom friends don't know the origin of the name of the current celebration in qaf_drabbles , "Gusmas," so I thought I'd explain.

Once upon a time, four fangirls wrote a story together, and the unbelievable url_girl illustrated it. (Well, we didn't write it, exactly -- it was divinely inspired, so it might be better said we channeled it.)

It was the story of Assbaby!Jesus (Gus for short), and of course, it's his birth we celebrate during the Solstikwanzanukkamas Season, which runs from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day.

Be warned if you choose to read this fic; you're sure to end up on the bus to the hot place if you do.

Title: A Better Idea

Prompt: Thanksgiving Day

( A Better Idea )

Tell me a scene that makes you melt. It has to be a scene that causes your heart to skip a beat every single time you watch it.

101: Their first kiss. Justin is too sexually charged to think or move a muscle and Brian, naked and wet, licks inside Justin's open mouth.

103: Babylon. When Brian puts both arms around Justin, separating Justin from the flotsam. Brian and Justin kiss and lick glitter off of each other's skin and then Brian lifts Justin off of his feet and Justin wraps his legs around Brian, and they dance that way to the thumpa thumpa under the lights and more glitter and it's like Cinderella at The Ball.

122: The prom dance. There's nothing to say. You just have to watch it.

308: When Justin shows so much humility and completely cops to wanting to come crawling back after his romance with Paganini Jr. came to end. He tells Brian EVERYTHING. He gives him everything. And Brian is dead, slayed, flayed, utterly in love and doesn't yet know what to do with it, until...

510: Brian says, I love you. Now I am tearing up and my heart is skipping a beat just thinking about it. You all know why. He whispers it into his beloved ear. They're both suit covered and raw, before Brian says it, you can see on Justin's face, in the way he holds his body, it physically pains him to break away from the hug and then, Brian tells him, with his crooked incisor of love smile, and watery eyes, that he was so fucking scared. All he could think was don't let anything happen to him.

And this where you can see, like Heathcliff could never love anyone other than Cathy, Brian could never love anyone other than Justin. Don't let anything happen to Him. He whispers in his beloved's ear, I love you. And then you see the pain release from Justin's body and Brian is set free from callous resistance.

So ( Read more... )

Happy Thanksgiving my fellow Americans!

I'm thankful to be alive, to have my body in working order even if the joints hurt more often than not, to have a job, to have a roof over my head and food for my body, to be creative, friends in RL and online who love me and whom I can love back, to be able to bake and cook.

What are you all thankful for?

As I was stuffing the turkey and flipping the channels from one parade to another, I had to smile

when I saw Cyndi Lauper performing in the Macy's Parade (in a pink castle, which made me laugh

out loud) and a few minutes later Miss Gloria Gaynor performing "I Will Survive".

I can't wait for the mini-marathon now!

I am thankful for all of the wonderful qaf communities here on IJ and those who share their

unique talents and love with all of us all year long!

It's all about TEH LOVE!!

Per Bunny's instruction, a scene that melts me every time...

203, Justin's walk to Brian. Brian embracing him, followed by sexy and sweet banter. Justin going home alone, Brian wistfully watching. Brian is so proud! And Justin is so scared at first, but perseveres.

I don't have an icon of it, but it is my header right now.

Tell me a scene that makes you melt. It has to be a scene that causes your heart to skip a beat every single time you watch it.

The scene that makes me melt every time I watch it is the Prom Dance scene. I love how close they are, Brian is leading Justin around the floor, so lovingly and they are sharing one of the most romantic moments; ridiculously romantic-Brian might quip. This scene also breaks my heart. I know what this scene caused (or at least helped provoke) and that kills me. I have a really hard time watching 122 because of the ending, I know that it is so real, and it very easily could be someone I love and care about.

This episode, for me, feels like being pushed off a cliff. It is so sweet with the dance, I am so happy for them and I wish I could be one of them, either of them for just a minute. Then I get shoved off the cliff and I am practically in tears and feel sick to my stomach.
