this parallel in how brian not-romantic kinney first touches justin's lips and keeps his eyes open for a few milliseconds, on the night of prom — his first grand romantic gesture showing his love — and on the night of the anti-proposition 14 event — his first time telling his love — to then close his eyes to let the moment — kiss — sink in, keeps me awake at night.

QUEER AS FOLK SEASON 1 EPISODE 12
“Ice Cream Kiss”
twenty-two years ago, brian kinney met the one person who, he didn't realize at the time, would, sometimes consciously, other times unconsciously, help break his phobia of growing up by showing him there is more to life and his persona than beauty, there is power in love and vulnerability, there is joy in trusting what the future holds.
twenty-two years ago today, brian kinney's son was also born, a ticking-clock reminder that he's getting older by the minute, an opportunity for brian to be the man he was deprived of: a parental figure.
and in twenty-two years, i know that brian kinney continued growing up, working on his demons, teaching his son there is indeed power in love and vulnerability, there is joy in trusting what the future holds, there is pride in allowing yourself to change.
in twenty-two years, i also know brian kinney is still the most iconic, beautiful, cynical, unapologetic, chaotic, drama-queen, hilarious, imperfectly perfect fictional man to ever exist on cable tv.
he feels real to me. and i'm proud of him.
