Rearranging the ToC  
so. this is how it goes: i don't believe in deleting things, because my standards are based on wavering self-esteem & i know there are some things that i no longer like that might be someone else's favourite, so sending it to oblivion is just unfair. therefore, links to everything old & no longer entirely representative of how i write can be found in this post, & the newer (& for me, better) things can be found, as usual, in the table of contents on my profile page.

Fic -- Brian/Steve -- Behind the Glass (Just a Peeping Tom)  
Title: Behind the Glass (Just a Peeping Tom)

Chapter: [1/1]

Word count: ~ 700

Fandom: Placebo

Pairing: pre Brian/Steve

POV: 3rd, Brian

Rating: PG

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: It always feels, from this side of the glass, like no-one else can see what’s going on. -- Brian watches from far away. Steve calls him closer.

Author's Notes: This is sort of like a snapshot fic from a non-existent, longer AU taking place in Brian's college years. I might revisit this verse, I'm not sure.

Art & ficlets -- The One With the Non-AU Halloween Party -- Pete/Patrick  
Title: A Little Less Interview with a Vampire, A Little More Sesame Street (or The One With the Non-AU Halloween Party)

Pairing: Pete/Patrick

Other Characters: Andy, Joe

Rating: WS

Materials: HB pencil, Unipin graphic pen, touch-ups in Finepix

Notes: For the Halloween Ficathon at [info]peterickfics! A series of four kind of silly drawings with drabble-esque ficlets accompanying them.

The situation is, in all honesty, completely ridiculous. )

Fic - Can't Keep My Hands Off You (or The One With The Cheese Porn) - Howard/Vince (Boosh) - [1/1]  
 Title: Can't Keep My Hands Off You (or The One With The Cheese Porn)

Chapter: [1/1]

Word count: ~ 1800

Fandom: The Mighty Boosh

Pairing: Howard/Vince

POV: 3rd, the cheese

Rating: R

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: Seeing as he possessed neither manners nor morality (he was only a slab of gruyere, for God’s sake) the cheese was simply content to watch eagerly as Vince pressed himself up close to Howard.

Author's Notes: Never having written anything in the Boosh fandom beforehand, it is obviously logical that my first foray into this world would come in the form of a cracked-out birthday present for a friend, featuring Howard/Vince porn from the point of view of a chunk of gruyere. Obviously. 

Warning: Not that it should be an issue, but this requires some serious suspension of disbelief. This is soft porn with hard cheese. Um. *facepalm* Features sex, some language, & major crack. Did I mention the cheese?Howard. The cheese melted. )

Chapter: [1/1]

Word count: ~ 530

Fandom: Fall Out Boy

Pairing: Pete/Patrick

POV: 3rd, Pete

Rating: PG

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: Pete thinks Patrick is something like an angel.

Author's Notes: It's gone 5.30am, & really, if I wanted to sleep, I wouldn't be writing this. Exploring something new -- now seemed like a good time to try it out. I don't know, I'm sleep-deprived?


Soundtrack:

-
Hurt -- Nine Inch Nails

Late Dawns & Early Sunsets -- My Chemical Romance

Fic -- Placebo -- Against the Grain -- 9/?  

Title: Against the Grain

Chapter: 9/? -- Kisses in the Afternoon

Fandom: Placebo

Pairing: N/A for now

POV: 3rd, Brian-centric

Rating: PG-13

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: A chaptered WIP tracking Brian's days in Luxembourg, his struggle to come to terms with himself and the people who help him along the way.

Warnings: Language

Author's Notes: 1. By now, you all hate me for updating this slowly, I realise. I apologise. 2. This has been in the works for almost two years now. The chapters I'm posting have been written for months, nearly a year & honestly? I pretty much now hate the way I wrote them. BUT I don't like to see a fic die, so I'm posting reluctantly anyway. I think a third re-write would just be ridiculous. Thankyou all for bearing with me for such a stupidly long time. Previous chapters can be found here.

Fic -- A Night at the VMAs (Or How Joe Trohman Finally Got Into Andy Hurley's Pants.) -- One-shot.  
Title: A Night at the VMAs (Or How Joe Trohman Finally Got Into Andy Hurley's Pants.)

Chapter: One-shot.

Word count: ~6,800

Fandom: Decaydance bands

Pairings: Pete/Patrick, Bill/Travis, Gabe/Ryan, Brendon/Justin Timberlake (ohmygod, I know), Brendon/Spencer, Joe/Andy.

POV: 3rd, alternating

Rating: R

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: "Jesus," Andy says, looking down at his own glass of water. “Did they put something in the drinks?"

Author's Notes: I don't even know. This was spawned from a post by [info]disarm_d (wtf, why can't I think of fic ideas of my own accord anymore?) following the video from the VMAs where Gabe is Gabe-like & Ryan Ross is drunk. And then there was 14-odd pages of non-chronological, POV-switching, multi-pairing VMA shennanigans. Also, let's pretend RL significant others just don't exist for the moment, mmkay? Sidenote: there is no Justin Timberlake porn, here. Sorry to disappoint. I swear, I tried, but it just -- wasn't happening. xD

Fic - Right Where it Belongs, Pete/Patrick, [2/2]  





- Huge amount of thanks goes to [info]britchick5000 for beta-ing this for me. Her knowledge of Oxbridge & general historical brilliance helped make this into what it is. She did an amazing job, and I learnt a great deal, too. For example, did you know that it was fabric handkerchiefs, and not paper tissues that were used until the 1970s? Without [info]britchick5000 's help, this small yet significant error would have remained. xD

- Thank you also to [info]periculosa for her encouraging words and without whose excellent nitpicking many stray commas and rogue apostrophes would have gone unedited.

- A final word of thanks to [info]mack_at_home for unsticking my brain so that I could finally write the ending. 

- The lines being read out at the poetry reading come from Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

- Title of the fic comes from the song of the same name by Nine Inch Nails, Right Where it Belongs. (DL link.)

- Cut-tag also from the similarly-named Nine Inch Nails song, We're in This Together. (DL link.)

- Lyrics at the beginning of the fic from Placebo's English Summer Rain. (DL link.)

- I hope you all enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. It was quite a challenge, keeping it historically accurate and attempting a style to go with the period. I kind of don't want to let this AU go. :D

Fic - Right Where it Belongs, Pete/Patrick [1/2]  
Title: Right Where it Belongs

Chapter: [1/2] 

Word count: ~12,300

Fandom: Fall Out Boy, various

Pairing: Pete/Patrick

POV: 3rd, Patrick

Rating: NC-17

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: It's the early 1960s. Patrick Stump attends one of the greatest universities in England, full of determination to take his chances and succeed. His plans, however, take on a somewhat different turn when he finds himself falling for Pete Wentz, rich, charming, and three years his senior.

Author's Notes: This is a sort-of partner-fic to go with [info]disarm_d 's Looking For Techniques (although it doesn't quite follow the storyline.) It's not essential to read her fic in order to follow this one, but you should read it anyway, because it's pretty much awesome. It all began with a picture, then spiralled into something quite epic. Much thanks to [info]britchick5000 and [info]periculosa for the amazing beta job. I couldn't have made this as good as I wanted to without your help.

Section of the Prissy British University AU...  
Okay. I don't even know. Following this picture of Panic! in sweatervests, [info]disarm_d started talking about a prissy, British university AU where Brendon & Spencer totally <3 each other but can't do much because of inexperience & homophobia. Until one day they get carried away &... things happen.

NOT MY FAULT. THE SCENARIO WAS EATING MY MIND.

So I wrote this. for [info]disarm_d, because I love her brain, & if she writes this AU in its entirety I will be very, very happy.

Fandom: Panic! at the Disco (AU)
Paring: Brendon/Spencer
Rating: R

Of course, Brendon is ridiculously vocal in everything he does... )

Warnings: Language, sex

Author's Notes: I have this new, burning, unbridled passion for the pairing and seriously, there's not enough of them around. I haven't written anything that isn't drowning in complexities in, oh, ages, so of course, my first impulse is to write smut. Because.

Rating: PG

Disclaimer: I know no one and own nothing

Summary: Everyone forgets that he broke her heart.
