Fic: A Pull of the Soul to a Far-Off Place

'Ello! This one was supposed to be Knots 10, but then it grew and morphed into its own thing. So, now it's a mostly stand-alone piece, but also an intercalary chapter between Knots 9 and 10.

I always seem to be on the edge of my seat when I read your stories. I love how you write Sonny and I really enjoy how you get inside his head! This offshoot and Knots take my breath away every time!

I love how Sonny realizes that even if he had met Brian first, that he still probably would have inevitably loved Will! I like Brian and the chemistry between them, but I could never really see them lasting long term.

Looking forward to Knots chapter 10. I will wait patiently while you perfect it. :)

That's really cool to hear. Thank you. :)

Personally, I've always felt that if Sonny had met Brian first or even just a little earlier-- maybe that early period of his and Will's friendship when Will was still in the closet and Sonny was happily dating day-players like Tyler and that guy whose name I can't remember-- then he and Brian would probably be sharing a condo and a German Shepherd by now. (Dogs are easier to take on hikes than infants.) It's that tragic element-- if only this or that-- that appeals to me in Brison. I could wax poetic forever about both Wilson and Brison, heh.

I know exactly what you mean. I could go in circles in my head regarding both pairings. I guess I am influenced by where the show is now. Also, the way Sonny was with Brian on the show. I think, like you address in Knots, Sonny has kind of a hero complex. He seemed a little almost condescending to Brian (on the show) at times because he was used to dealing with Will. For a guy like Brian that would have gotten old fast!

I do remember thinking, at the time when Brian was coming around with concert tickets and being all concerned after T punched Sonny, that it was too bad that those 2 couldn't date because they were so cute together. Even though ultimately I did want him with Will.

I guess that is why this story always has me tied in knots, no pun intended, because I kind of like both pairings and I can't decide who Sonny should choose. Good thing that decision is up to you!! :)
