I really love Gus in these stories. His characterization is beautiful, and I love the different facets of his personality you can attribute to each of his four parents.
>>“The fiddler? I thought his name was Ian.”
This line cracked me up. Because of course everyone knows who the fiddler is, even Gus, but that he believes his name is Ian made me laugh so hard. And I loved Alex's story about Justin's reaction to hearing him on the radio, too.
It sounds about right, too, that it takes this long for Brian and Justin to actually DEAL with that whole time in their lives, because they tend to move past things without actually talking about them.
This story is so much fun, and I can't wait for the last part.
