As some of you may know, chering and I have written many, many fics together, I have written many a fic without her (diarrhea of the fingers), and chering has written several solo. What follows is one of chering's fics.

Under the Sheets consists of the bedroom conversations Cowlip never let us hear, and it's rated, as always...NC-17.

Read it, enjoy, and give chering some love.

I've been crazy busy this weekend with all kinds of family stuff but I kept sneaking away and checking in on fandom on my phone. Looks like lots of good stuff has been going on and hopefully I'll have time to catch up this week. I'm especially happy to see all the drabbles!

I've been waiting to find out the release date of my first original fic at Torquere Press and I finally got the email today. July 21st 2010... I was expecting it to be sometime after the first of the year but I was shocked that I will have to wait that long.

Gus and JR ran around the outskirts of the pond, laughing. Michael alternately pelted them with snow, and watched the spectacle before him.

On the pond, revelations were being discussed.

“Okay, explain to me how you’re so good at ice skating?” Justin huffed.

“Ice hockey. Best way to get back at the jocks in school,” Brian replied. “What I don’t get is, how the country club brat isn’t good at ice skating. Don’t they give you private lessons or something?”

“Or something. Good thing my ass is bouncy. Came in handy a lot.”

“So that’s how it got so big!”

For personal reasons I've decided to make all of the entries in my journal private, with the exception of my fiction, which will always remain completely open and unlocked to everyone. I just wanted to let you know. It has nothing to do with fandom or fangirls or anything like that, but with real life nonsense that will hopefully go away eventually. Until then you won't see anything new around here unless I write new fic (which is a distinct possibility). Please don't defriend me because someday I might be back and it would be sad if I didn't have any friends when I did. I'll still be checking in and commenting occasionally and will respond to comments left on my fiction, all of which can be found HERE.

Buy the damn roses, Brian

What do you think would have been different if Brian had bought the roses? (Also does anyone have an icon of Brian holding the not-purchased roses?)

andybj, posting in qaf_bunnies:
Hi everyone!

I just realized I have almost no Jewish icons! which would have been just fine if I wasn't Jewish, but I am, and therefore must have more jewish icons!

I was hoping maybe someone would be willing to make me some icons with Jewish references, like when Mel says "that's right, blame the Jew" or maybe some with Ted in the Gay-Jewish-bar night party or whatever it was in season 5... if you need more, I can give them to you on the comments.

Thanks in advance!

“Hey kids, look! The first snowfall of the year!” Michael gestured excitedly at the window.
“It already snowed lots in Canada, Uncle Michael.” Gus announced, clearly unimpressed.
Justin smirked. “In New York too.”
“Really?” Gus asked, staring up at Justin.
“Yep.” Justin smiled and scooped Gus up in his arms. He drew snowflakes on the frosted glass as he spoke. “In fact I bet it starts in Canada and then sweeps down to New York. It's like we're sharing the same snow.”
“Cool! Is that why you and Dad were so late for dinner? Because of our snow?”

Brian rolled over and landed in a cold spot. He opened his eyes and stared at the place where Justin’s warm ass should have been.

He shoved his hair out of his eyes, grumbling. First, Justin slipped into a tryptophan-induced coma. Then, Brian had to wake him to punish him severely for his lack of decorum.

Well, that depended on one’s definition of punishment.

And now he was gone.

“Hey.”

“Where the hell were you?”

“Calling Mel and Linds, and Michael.”

“Why?”

“First snowfall. We’re taking Gus and JR to the park.”

Maybe he could bury Justin in a snowbank…

Remember THIS POST about my new mpreg!ass!baby?

Yep,he's still a nameless ass!baby!

*pets poor baby*

His parents got into a HUGE fight with me just this morning.My Brian threatened to tear out his new balls and my Justin said he would cut off their wireless connection if their ass!baby would still be just an ass!baby (with no real name) by Sunday evening!

*gasps*

Pfft!!!Who do they think they are!They should just be happy to belong to ME!!!Hubby has a laptop too and it- YES,it's simply an it,not male,not female,no name,JUST AN IT!!!- has to lead a very lonely life.No-one talks to IT (or yells at it lol) on a regular basis,no-one has EVER used it for pretty graphics and stuff.It doesn't has a wallpaper with two hot guys in it,nor does it have a wireless connection with anyone...*sobs*..That poor thing!!

Oops!I think it's really high time to name the ass!baby and since I don't want to carry this burden alone I thought I should finally set up the poll that I was talking about the other day.I got already yelled at by fun_demented for not doing it immediately.*g* let the fandom decide.....

These names are suggestions made by some crazy fangirls and one fanboy wannabe. *giggles*

He’s still asleep. It’s been three hours since we left his mother’s, and four since Deb’s. I have no idea where he put everything that he stuffed in his mouth. My Christmas wish is that it goes to his ass.

Speaking of which…I lean over and smack it, and my dick gets hard from both the red flush and his yelp.

“Brian, what the fuck?”

“It’s been five hours since I fucked you. My dick is lonely.”

“Since when did I have to be awake for you to fuck me?”

“”You don’t. But it would be nice if you were.”

Really really did not like "Coco Before Chanel." Audrey Tautou is gorgeous and I could have looked at her all day, but I found her character's motivations unfathomable, and I had no sense at all where Chanel's great talent and style came from, nor was there any sense of the force in design she would one day become.

This was nothing but an overblown romance that somehow reduced everything she did to being about some guy. Nauseating. I HATED it.

Beautiful, yes. But blech.

I wish someone would make the Chanel film that is in my head. Because this is DEFINITELY not it.

Or you can B) Come join me at qaf_marathons in 30 minutes. At 10pm EST. For episode 512 and 513.

Just a reminder We (hopefully it'll be a we and not just an I) will be watching the beginning and the end tonight at qaf_marathons.

I will get started at 8pm EST, watch 101 and 102 straight through. Then probably take a few minutes intermission and then watch 512 and 513 straight through starting at about 10pm EST.

Please join me! :D

And if you've never marathoned with me before just an fyi that I don't often get very deep with my comments, but you can feel free to. Or stay on the shallow end with me.

Why am I doing this? Because I have an urge to watch them both in one sitting and look at where they all started out and where they ended up without a ton of focus tonight on the hows and whys they got there.

I can't handle the crowds on Black Friday, and besides, my holiday shopping, such as it is, is done. (We're buying for the kids only this year, due to the financial problems of one of my brothers).

So my sisters in law and I are going to see "Coco Before Chanel," while my brothers and their sons do their manly, boy-ly thing without us. And then this evening, not_yet_defined is doing a marathon of 101-102 and 512-513 over at qaf_marathons, so that's what I'll be doing when I get home!

See you then!

Notes: It's almost the Silly Season in Australia.

Ted had run out of Claratyne. The drugstore was closed.

He went to Emmett's despite his stuffed sinus. But Emmett's Persian cat loved laps. Ted's inner ear began itching.

Ted drank to forget. He proved allergic to the preservatives in the wine. His eyelids swelled.

Ted prayed in the bathroom. Tiphini entered, sacrilegiously regurgitating a furball.

'I'm leaving, Emmett. I can't pat pussy anymore'.
'But that's not who you are. You love cats!'
'I made a promise to God. If He never deprives me of effective antihistamines again, I'll never expose myself to known allergens.'

Ted had seen the light.

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.)

“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.”

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

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

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.

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.”

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.

He takes what he wants. But he also gives - and doesn't ask for acknowledgement.

I can learn from him. I can help without saying a word. I don't need to be told I'm brave or clever. That asshole's promise to lay off Brian is enough.

Brian's relief is palpable. He dances with me, uncharacteristically friendly. He can't know it was my doing, but his new warmth and openness say 'Thankyou' to the universe, anyone, me. He picks up my shirt as I almost lose it on the crowded floor. A chivalrous moment - but today, I'm the knight in shining armour.
