Summary
Justin is torn between Brian's offer to move into the loft with him, and Brett's offer of a job in L.A. After Brian encourages him to accept the job, Justin heads out to California but it isn't quite what he was expecting. His life with Brian back in Pittsburgh is equally complicated, and Justin needs to figure out what is really important to him before he can move forward with his life. Or, the one in which Justin is full of angst and confusion, Mikey is a mildly annoying but good friend whose criticisms are more valid than anyone wants to admit, Daphne and Ben are awesome, and Brian is, well, Brian.

Embark, Framed, and Beyond the Yellow Brick Road by plumsuede

Summary
Embark is the beginning of now completed, post-513 trilogy that picks up Brian Kinney's and Justin Taylor's relationship after the end of the series. (The trilogy is made of this piece, Framed, and Beyond the Yellow Brick Road. ) Chapters here do not correspond to LJ because I have included Embark and Framed as part of this series. Timeline wise it opens immediately after the last scene Brian and Justin are in together at the end of 513.
This work is complete here on AO3. Your comments are always appreciated.

Summary
“I’m sorry,” Brian repeated, his tone serious and deliberate. “For a lot of things over the last two days. I… I didn’t know what to do with what happened before I left Pittsburgh, and I wasn’t ready to talk.” He paused, sighing. “And I don’t know how to lie to you. I haven’t for a long time, and you know that. So sometimes, it’s easier to piss you off, so you’ll leave me alone until I find enough of my remaining ball to face you -- as irrational as I know that sounds.”
“Or,” Justin said, a small smile playing on his lips, “you could say, ‘Hey Justin, I’ve got something on my mind that I’m not ready to talk about, and I need a little space.’” He gave his husband a meaningful look before continuing. “Brian, I know what you’re doing when you do it now… But what I don’t understand is why, almost two decades into our relationship, you still think the solution to anything is to push me away -- if for no reason other than it won’t fucking work.”
***
Brian gets some unexpected and difficult news and turns to his usual coping strategies. Justin knows better.

Summary
That damned Showtime channel and their time limits. Due to circumstances beyond their control (I'm sure), Cowlip et al were exceedingly surprised when the finale of QaF was cut short by a few minutes. It changed everything and, boy, were they pissed. But... what were a couple of rich, influential producers of a successful ground breaking hit show to do? Apparently, nothing. The milk had been spilled, the cart overturned, the bridge burned...
But, here is how the ending was ACTUALLY filmed. (I swear, this is *true* [Okay, so maybe it's an urban legend]. I heard it from a friend who has a cousin who works with this guy who dated a celluloid vault-keeper's sister...)

Timeline: Six Months after 513
April 15 2017 marks the 10 year anniversary of when I first completed and posted Queer As Folk Season 6 in its entirety on livejournal. It's been friendslocked since then but I thought it was time to bring it over here to A03. Enjoy!I've written this fic in a way that'll hopefully give you the feel of watching an actual episode. I'm trying to include all the humor, hotness, angst, suspense and LOVE that made us adore the show. I appreciate any feedback you can give and feel free to use the comments to discuss the episode amongst yourselves! Have fun!

Summary
Brian Kinney does not do love.
That’s for starry-eyed straights and dykes and silly faggots. Not for me. What has love ever gotten anyone? That’s what I’ve been telling myself for years. It’s all bullshit.
Right?
Justin is on his hands and knees, cleaning up my puke. I had missed the toilet pretty spectacularly. It’s disgusting. There are chunks of the roast beef sandwich and fries that I’d defiantly had for lunch, despite the doctor’s warning to only have soup.
He doesn't even blink.
