I am re-watching season 2 and have another question - why do you think Ted and Michael didn't say anything to Brian or Mel and Lindsay about the BB party and the fact that Howard Bellweather was there - considering he was set-righteous in the community and had written horrible things about their best friend Brian.
Also, do you think Justin was hard done by and did lose some of his youth by sleeping with Brian when he was so young? Even when they are on street together and Justin learns to walk in crowd of people, Brian is so vulnerable there, and when they say goodbye to each other, we can see on his face that he does not believe how he can have someone so understanding and caring by his side. I love this part . I love how he stands there with his arms open and kisses him on the street . They have such good chemistry |

Justin probably did not have typical adolescence as other people in his age, but I dont think it was for worse, he gained more than he lost, if he lost anything. Because its idealistic to think that if he would not be with Brian he would find immediately some partner who he would have been completely happy with. Someone else could have cheated on him eventhough pretending to be monogamous or infected him etc. I think it was in his fate to be with Brian, Because he was courageous snd Brian was challenge for him as Justin was challenge for Brian and thes attracted to each other lifes.

Jennifer broke his heart when she said he couldn't be with Justin anymore.

I'm glad they sorted it out and Brian didn't seem to mind at all really. The scene where they're sitting at the table after Justin gets accepted back into college and Brian kisses Justin at dinner is so nice too - it shows to me that he is happy with the relationship and really likes and accepts Justin.
After that they all bet against their relationship - what do people think about that? Another example of them not seeing Brian changing and growing as a person? I like how Deb stands up for them as well. She does get mad at Brian at times but she is supportive as well . |

But one thing about this scene. I dont how what effect it had on you, but for me this was actually certain reassurance that their relationship would survive and they will last till the end. Because always in the show when was thing was given to us clear result, the opposite would happen. |

About the scene in Babylon I think I read somewhere that Cowlip considered it as sort of their "marriage". Like that they got commited to each other on their own rules. there is though one thing I was bit surprised about. And that is when Brian says: "you were right. The reason i took you in was tnat you took a bat to the head. But thats not the reason...." because in this way when he says Justin was right, he confirms Justins question whether he took him in because he felt quilty. BUT I dont think that was the only or main reason, he certainly had the same feelings for Justin when he took him home as he had at that scene in babylon. But was probably afraid to admit it to justin? |

I like the idea of that being their commitment to each other - the middle of Babylon on the dance floor, just focussed on each other and what they want from each other and the kiss. I like where he says 'I want you to be safe and I want you around for a long time' he always has these wonderful things he says New topic/question You see Brian meet Ben and then find out later that they had slept together at a white party only a few years before and that Ben had HIV+ for 5 years so that means Brian would've slept with Ben while he was HIV + as well. |

Ben comes in season 2 and I still don't understand how Michael got him at all. They don't seem to be on the same level in so many ways. Am I being too harsh on Michael? |

Ok I am back to Justin sleeping with the virgin and Brian saying you kissed him and Justin not saying anything about it but just wanting to shower. He often wants to shower after Ethan as well - do you think it's because he wants to wash the feeling of guilt off him so to speak? To clean up cause he feels bad? I still don't know why he doesn't say anything but watching it again after that scene Brian goes to the gym and works extra hard like he feels he needs to be better or fitter to keep Justin and I'm wondering if Justin was so mean to that other boy partly because of his guilt over kissing him. Like if he hadn't kissed him and had Brian say something he might have been nicer to him instead of being like an unsophisticated Brian. Also, at the end of that episode Justin says he wants to go home with Brian and to stuff the game and they kiss - it looks to me like Brian just pushes him away like he is going to find a trick - what do other people see there? Is that what you think happened? Last edited by fmaldy24; 07-28-2017 at 05:16 AM |

That end is very painful when Brian pushes Justin away, even if he wanted to go for a trick and not to be with Justin why he had to push him aways so noticeably, amost with a force? Its almost like he is saying **** off....and the music playing is very sad. Its hint that things wont go well for two of them in near future. |
