Why This Must Be Read: I don't read fics of this fandom very often because most of it is Justin/Alex and while the pairing has some fantastic writers, I can't really get into incest.

However, this is a lovely because it has great characterization. The fic idea is pretty original and it explores what it would have been like if Justin and Alex met in different times and under different circumstances, and I've gotta say that it always remains faithful to the nature of their relationship i.e. their devotion to each other. It's far from perfect; I would have liked the writer to elaborate on some parts but it has its moments.

But, if you like the 'five things' sort of fics, if you like stories where the leads meet each other in different lifetimes and if you like satisfying endings, this it.

PS to mods: can I get tags for the pairing and the fandom :)?
