Focal lengths, apertures, are really a subjective and personal decision.  It seems to me though if you're a "28mm guy" that 35mm is too close?  Maybe if you want a fast lens the 18mm f/1.4 would be better?

I like pairing a fast prime with a standard zoom.  I'm a "50mm guy" so I have the 33mm f/1.4 and the 16-80mm.

I've owned at one time or another all the "fujicrons" and I think they are all great, it's a matter of what focal length you prefer.   For me, the 35mm f/2 would pair better with the 18mm f/2.

Good luck with your decision.
