finally finished the monstrous qaf fic
I finally posted the last chapter of swimming with sharks a few days ago -- right before I flew to toronto for pride weekend. (that's a whole other story.)
next up is trying to figure out the season 4 plot rewrite and not diving right into a s1 bdsm au. my main focus for s4 is actually this: what makes it so Justin goes to Hollywood without expecting too much from it? what gives him that maturity and enough cynicism to know that, even as he's having the time of his life, it's fleeting and it's wrecking brian from the inside out?
because that, that is really when I believe their relationship started to falter and never came back. they grew apart while he was away, and never really came back together again. and that happens, god does it happen, but it doesn't have to.
currently I'm working off these possibilities:
having to be as invested in Kinnetik from the beginning means Justin has more financial stake in pittsburgh when he leaves for hollywood (which means he can't take the extension)
him being closer to Mel means he takes Ben's "be careful, they'll straight Rage up" more seriously and gets Mel to look over him and Michael's rights more carefully
somehow maybe making sure Michael keeps him informed of how much Brian is actually struggling? or maybe from the fact that he'll have to still be working partly with Kinnetik at the same time
....something else? I don't know. Brian will have to go and visit (and it will have to be a business reason or he'll cancel).
anyway, something something Justin knowing before he goes that this could be something they can't come back from, so doing his fucking damndest not to screw up. he's very easily swayed by the glamour, but I don't think Brian should be the person to show him the glamour isn't everything? I'm just not sure who should be.
Justin really needs another friend or two of his own.
