Brian + playfully pinching Emmett

[winderlylandchime]

Fanfiction Year in Review 2023

I fell out of fandom in 2021-ish for mental health and other reasons (iykyk). I returned this past year and reunited with old friends and made new ones. I absolutely adore fandom and all that it brings with it. The passion, the love, the community, the complete bypassing of cringe. Please, more.

This year, I returned to fanfiction and published over 150k words. I know absolutely that word counts mean nothing but if we’re taking writing as a symptom of emotional and mental well-being for me (for me!), then I feel so very good about this. I also learned how many ways someone can write about the same theme (prom! arc!) without completely losing their audience. I wanted to do a little year-in-review by listing the fics I’ve published and my favorite line from each.

Thank you so much to every single person who encouraged me in DMs, servers, kudos, and comments. Writing brings me happiness but the community around writing brings me the most joy. I would not have returned to fandom without each of you.

And then there were three rating: T, word count: 727, ficlet, inspired by a prompt by @lostcol and a bit of a character study of Brian Kinney.

Favorite line: Oh, there are mothers in Brian’s life now. They’re surrounding him as he sits, head bowed, face covered in tears-streaked blood, scent of death and ammonia in his nose.

(and I’d do it again) rating: E, word count: 6,865, one-shot, canon divergence in S5, maybe something other than a bomb can bring them back together

Favorite line: It’s not like Justin is going to come back to the loft with him. Not after he up and left five weeks and three - no four days ago. He’s ready to wash his hands of this night. Ready to be done to the extent that he’ll ever be done with Justin. To the extent that he’ll ever be able to fully wash his hands of any of this. He feels like Lady Macbeth with her eternal spot, forever marked by blood on the cold cement floor of a parking garage.

carried me with you rating: E, word count: 36,405, after prom Jennifer asks Brian to stay away from Justin, and he does

Favorite line: ”But that’s not me taking care of you. That’s, that’s - ” I struggled to find the words to convey what was natural, what was something that didn’t require effort or thought or intention. “ - that’s like breathing.”

love is so short (forgetting is so long) rating: T, word count: 2,777, WARNING MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH, what the fuck was I thinking?

Favorite line: His mama, an artist, just said, “Gussy, some people, most people, have an infinite capacity to love. Other people have the capacity to love one person infinitely.” He never asked again.

clothes mean nothing until until somebody lives in them rating: M, word count: 3,007, 5+1 things and clothes sharing

Favorite line: That night, Justin lies in Michael’s old bed and holds the shirt over his face while he remembers the vibrations of Brian’s moans against his skin as he ate him out the night before. He jerks off to the memory. Not the first boy to jerk off to thoughts of Brian in this bed.

you’re like a tattoo (something i can’t undo) rating: E, word count: 87,170, my first QAF complete AU, sugar daddy AU. also kinneycutt!

favorite line: “Oh, darling,” Emmett’s voice is dripping with something cashmere soft. “Oh, oh, oh . Darling, you are fucked. Oh, you are beyond fucked.” He looks at Brian. “And you don’t even know it.”

beautiful like the darkness between the fireflies rating: E, word count: 18,611 (WIP), my first QAF post canon, exes-to-lovers, soft fluffity fluff

favorite line: “And, dad?” There’s a hopeful edge to Gus’ voice, something that hasn’t been killed by the spectacular failure of their moms’ marriage and generally having Brian as a third parent.

“Yeah?” He feels the word bubble up from deep in his chest. He wants this kid to hold onto hope for as long as they can.

“An anchor can be good, it can keep you grounded, you know?”

[chloesjanedecker]

what do you wish we saw more of on qaf?

OH MAN

Brian being a dad to Gus as he got older

Justins relationship with his sister? Like, she’s there, and I get he’s doing his own thing but they sort of...forgot she was there.

More of the cancer arc, more Justin caring for Brian

More Kinneycutt friendship (you can’t tell me they didn’t sleep together when they first met and I need the evidence for science) 

dealing with Brian and Justins obvious mental illnesses. 

soft Brian, literally just loving, romantic, soft Brian because we know he has it in him and I need it. 

The side of Debbie that wasn’t berating Brian? The one that obviously loves him like a son, we got it, but I need more. 

Leda, for selfish reasons.

a fucking holiday? I want a QAF Christmas/Hanukkah

Jennifer Taylor being the MIL she deserves to be.  I want her and Brian going out to lunch when Justin is in Los Angeles and eventually New York, both of them concerned about their boy but so proud of him, too.

College highjinx || Kinneycutt

Emmett was humming to himself decorating his dorm waiting for his roommate to show up and busied himself setting up a plate of cookies. He heard the door burst open no knocking or anything. He looked up and pursed his lips when he recognized the man.

"Excuse you, Brian what are you doing here?" He demanded his hands on his hips as he waited for an explanation. "Did you get lost, I know it's hard for you to take direction." He teased his friend lightly. He grabbed the paper out of the others hand and held his own to it but there it was his dorm number. He rolled his eyes and laughed. "Welp, no mistaking it guess were roommates. " He confirmed.

Queer as Folk – 3.14: The Election

[winderlylandchime]

A & B & J <3

A. Ships that you currently like a lot.

My forever and ever OTP is Brian/Justin from Queer As Folk. And, of course, my platonic KinneyCutt aka Brian/Emmett. I am also 100% invested in the Ineffable Partners aka Crowley/Aziraphale from Good Omens and platonic Doctor/Donna from Doctor Who. I'm feral to the extent that I created an entire side-blog. There are, of course, other ships that I enjoy (I cannot wait to see what unfolds in The Pairing fandom...just chewing the walls waiting for Kit/Theo fic) but none that I adore as much as Britin, KinneyCutt, Ineffables, and Doctor/Donna.

B. A pairing - platonic, romantic, or sexual - you initially didn't consider, but someone changed your mind.

For IWTV, I did not understand what all the fuss was about Armand/Daniel and then I read Devil's Minion and some very persuasive gifs and people made be realize I was wrong. Also, Ineffable Bureaucracy (Beezelbub/Gabriel) was included in tons of fics and I was iffy about it and then Neil Gaiman changed my mind.

J. Name a fandom you didn't think about until you saw it all over tumblr.

Grace, I feel like you know this has to be hockey. Truly no one would believe that the finest minds of my generation are writing HRPF. I love it. I nearly blurt it out every time my colleague mentions his very close ties to a hockey team but I am a big girl who can control herself.

I have a ton to do today, help me procrastinate!

Kinneycutt PSA!

It's so hilariously fun to watch people opening their eyes to the possibility of Brian and Emmett as more than just friends. I don't remember when it happened to me but usually people's reactions range from shock to some sort of denial, cause they keep saying it's their secret kink or guilty pleasure. But you don't have to feel that way. People crack!ship all the time and the best thing about Kinneycutt is that they're not even crack material at all cause they're 100% canon, you see. This is an actual fact completely confirmed by me, so fear not. Ship away! Write fics. Make graphics. Whatever you want. It won't take away from your love of Brian/Justin AND it will make the Kinneycutt fandom stronger.

Eva's iconic Kinneycutt gifs can be found here, here, here, and here 

My fabulous and quality Kinneycutt tag is here;

Some amazing Kinneycutt fanfic this way;

And if you're lazy and will not read or click the goodies presented here, you can read THIS 1x05 gapfiller. If it doesn't make you see the strobe lights, nothing will, so just continue living in your world that clearly lacks tall fabulous people and carry on.

Parties and parties|| Kinneycutt

Emmett sat at a table at the diner looking a bit stressed a mess of Christmas cards and wrapping paper and notebook full of scribbles and doodles of floor plans and wedding to do lists. He loved it normally. The planner felt a little overwhelmed. He didn't notice the jingle of the bell to signal someone coming in or the looming figure of his friend. He didn't look up from his task but finally voiced a greeting. "Hello Brian, you do know it's a bit rude to hover." He finally looked to him with a smile to him. "Sorry, just my weekend is crammed to the brim with holiday party after holiday party. It's enough to turn anyone into a bit of scrooge. My fault I shouldn't have said yes to everyone " He wrinkled his nose. "What are you up to?" He asked moving his papers in a bit of a sloppy stack so the other could sit down.

What's that episode again where Brian and Emmett are dancing together? The "we're both tall" scene?

[justsoqueer-blog]

Remember that time I had your dick in my mouth?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY RAFA!!!

I can't make pretty graphics, and I can't really write good fics either, but I wanted to give you something for your birthday, so NOW GO READ IT AND SUFFER! Hahahaha. 

So here's the link to your Kinneycutt-not-really-smutty-fic.

Now, the sappy part! Before I really started talking to you in your ask box or anything I just thought you were talented and had great taste in TV shows. But then you followed me back and we got to talk a bit and I was like, wow, thins girl is so nice! And then we started with the qafparties and that was it: talented, nice, pretty and funny as hell? This girl is not real! 

But turns out you are real! I just got lucky and got to meet you. Thanks for being so awesome! 

Muak!

Kinneycutt Fic for Rafa and Eva

Author's Note: Because the world needs more Kinneycutt. This would be Brian and Emmett's first meeting, and by extension, first fuck. Beneath the cut, for, well...fucking, lol. Please pardon my rushed sex scene. I can write a 1k ficlet in an hour, but it might not be pretty.

Five years swimming in the sea of writhing, half-naked bodies under the lights of Babylon has taught Brian about the scent of fresh meat. And tonight—not twenty minutes through the door—Brian's already out for the kill. He turns by the staircase, pauses just a few feet away from the bar, and finds this infamous, southern boy that has Babylon abuzz.

And he looks campy as hell.

The first thing Brian notices about him is how lean he is, like he hasn't had an honest meal in weeks. Still, the jut of his hipbones—despite the questionable and vibrant pair of pleather pants beneath them—intrigues him. Intrigues him enough to move towards him, to lean against the bar next to the queen and eye him up.

When the queen turns around to set down his empty glass, he jumps, apparently not having realized that Brian was there at all. Brian just smirks, straightens himself, and closes in on this dashing Southern belle. 

"Um, hello there." The guy says as he edges away from Brian. "My, aren't you friendly."

"You wanna fuck?" Brian asks with a shrug.

The queen brings a finger to his lips—as if to shush someone—and just stares at him, confused and blinking rapidly. He opens his mouth, then—apparently at a loss for words—closes it again. Brian gets that; the prospect of being fucked by him has left many a twink speechless. 

"W-wow, you don't waste a minute, do you?" The guy waves his finger around as he says it—and Christ, Brian has never seen someone talk with their hands so much—and cocks his hip. 

Brian inspects his nails, quickly growing bored but not enough to walk away yet. The queen is obviously a total bottom, and Brian's been itching for someone with a little experience. His last couple fucks were barely worth the condom he used to fuck them with. Plus, this Southern belle has got a great body, if a little on the thin side. And the gap in his teeth is pretty fucking hot.

"So," the queen says, suddenly a bit flirty and that's a hell of a lot more like it. "You really want to fuck me?"

"Yeah, and the offer is going…going—" 

"Wait, alright, alright. I mean I'd be nuts to pass you up. You look good enough to eat." He tosses his hand to the side and rolls his eyes, giggling like some mad queen. "But why would a delicious hunk like yourself be interested in little ole me?"

"Does it even fucking matter? Because we're both…" Brian quickly surveys the guy. "Because we're both… tall?"

The queen nibbles his lip, as if he really needs to fucking think about it. And Brian can't remember when a trick took this long to decide whether or not he wanted Brian's dick in his ass. Just as Brian is about to walk away and save this one for another day when he's a little more drunk, the queen grabs onto the hem of his shirt. 

"Okay, I accept!" He smiles, and then, "I'm Emmett. I just got in town two days ago and—"

"I don't give a shit," Brian says, pulling the guy in the direction of the backroom. "Keep your name and your life story. I'm only interested in your ass." 

"You really know how to romance a girl, don't you?" Brian pushes him face first against the wall. "Although I can really appreciate your honesty…umm, sorry I didn't catch the name." 

Brian peels the pleather off the queen's ass and pulls out a condom. "Doesn't matter. You'll be calling me 'God' in about five minutes or less."

"Awfully—ahhh!"

The queen breathes deeply, adjusting to Brian's cock. When Brian feels the guy relax against him, he moves quick and hard, pulling back and driving into his ass.

"Oh god!" 

Brian smirks. "Told you."

He grab's the queen's hips as he thrusts into him. Then again. And again. Shifting his angle. And there. Just fucking there. Brian's head drops back as his hips piston, as he grinds against this new guy and takes him for all he's worth.

Surprisingly, he's worth about nine inches or more by the time Brian really starts feeling the ache in his balls. A grower, not a shower then. He smiles. Very impressive, Ms. O'Hara. Who knew a little southern girl like…Emmett?—who is practically howling for every fag in Babylon to hear—would be packing a cock like that? He could put a lot of tops Brian knew to shame.

Fixated on it, Brian grips Emmett, strokes him in time with his trusts. His moans and cries are fucking music to Brian's ears. Brian likes vocally appreciative fucks; they give his ego a nice boost. Just as he circles the head with his thumb, just as he drives into Emmett's prostate, he feels Emmett's ass clamp around him, cum shooting onto his hand.

Another thrust. Another. And then Brian just fucking loses it, lost in blistering, blinding white. His lungs give out, and fuck, probably his heart too. He's shooting his load into Emmett's ass as Emmett pants against him. 

Then it's gone.

Just fucking gone. 

And Brian feels hollow again. Christ, when will it ever be enough to sate him? He's starting to think never. 

He pulls himself out of Emmett with a grunt of discomfort, ties off the condom and tosses it. Then, Brian pulls up his pants and it's over. He's walking away when he hears his charming Southern belle calling out to him.

"Excuse me?!"

Brian turns. "Yeah?"

"Really?" Emmett crosses his hands over his chest, the picture of modesty with his dick still hanging out of his pants. "That's all? You're just going to walk away without saying anything?"

A pause, and then, "You have a nice ass. See you around, Emmy Lou." 

And Brian does.

…I know? Okay, not helping. Do you think your family would react badly if you told them you smoke? Not that you’ve been smoking for 7 years, but let’s say you tell them you started not too long ago. I mean, you’re way past 18, not a child anymore.

i just told him

that i'm a social smoker...

and he's not happy about it and it doesn't feel okay
