I just really honestly do not care for Brian as much as I care for Ian. I think it is genius how the author is playing with such an interest thing as reincarnation is, and not making Ian truly accept his 'past' life because yeah no shit.
He has all the right to feel distant with it, and it makes Ian loving Solleith much more powerful, he doesn't love him because he was Brian, he loves him because of who he is. I don't think I am explaining myself, but Ian rejects Brian, he is his own self and the idea of anything he has ever preached or feel is based on his past life.
The relationship Brian and Solleith had is truly beautiful and well written, but I like to imagine Ian how he sees himself, just as Ian. I honestly hope if he remembers his past life he still defends his position as a new and different human being, who wants to create a new life with Solleith based on whom he actually is and not who he is supposed to be.
