" ...I like your sounds, maybe even better than your skin, the way it just barely hides everything else about you, the way you're so fucking forever underneath your flesh." I'm rereading arsenicjade...-- each of the five parts on it's own is a complete story, and together they're perfect.  Also, JC, which was more of a draw when I was fresh from popslash, but I do still love fanon JC kind of a lot.  :D

The Stupid High School AU Where Hardly Anyone's Gay: Gerard/LynZ by impertinence ; interband, het, does what it says on the package. One of the most fantastically gross and awkward high School...without a map, working out this relationship thing. To spy my shadow in the sun by formerlydf ; Interband, Gabe/William. Those games that aren't really games; throwing things at William's head

Jon Walker; Dark Lord by arsenicjade , NC-17 Panic is literally magic. Okay, seriously just the idea of this is brilliant and then the rest of the story follows. Wow, and brilliant and,...Brendon looks at Jon's wand for a second. "Magic." But now he's starting to smile, slowly. "Please, Brendon, really, this has to be our secret." Brendon nods earnestly. Jon is totally screwed.

Jon's Bookstore (A Few of My Favorite Things) by foxxcub , R A funeral is really the wrong place to learn you've inherited a business. I adore foxxcub 's work, I have adored her work...means this is my new Favorite place." He suddenly drops hi s hand and snaps his fingers. "Where do you work? 'Cause they're letting you off early, because you're coming to lunch with me. Right now.

The Rift In The Lute by jocondite , R Seriously wonderful, and very well done. A pleasant read. He comes in on Thursday, too. Ryan is a smooth, well-oiled, barista machine. He is polite...wanting him to smile at the customers and to try and sound interested ("Come on, I know you have some enthusiasm in your voice, we just need to bring it out!") and to get their orders right and stuff.

On the rare days when Brendon calls in sick, Ryan is lost. His voice goes even more monotonous and he doesn’t bother giving anyone their messages. Spencer just laughs and laughs. He’s lucky that he’s...Patrick there. “My very own Ugly Betty!” Pete will say, fluttering his eyelashes at Patrick. “Except not ugly, or a girl. You can be Hot Patrick instead.” He follows Patrick around constantly.

Starts In My Toes by foxxcub (PG-13) Spencer has spent all of freshman year learning the things you don't do, and having a debilitating crush on a junior is one of them. Amusing, lovely...it by turning into a girl over Walker, Texas Ranger. So, thank you, Spence. Thank you for ruining Chuck Norris for me." Spencer considers glaring at his cell phone. His best friend is such a dick.

Lines in the Sand (are meant to be crossed) by iamtheenemy (R) “Hey,” the Sultan grinned, stretching out a hand that Ryan shook. “Nice to meet you.” He eyed Ryan’s boots, jeans, jean jacket...have you said that to today?” “Today?” Jon responded. “That’s how I answer the door every day.” “It’s true!” a voice cried out in the background. “I’m an eternal optimist, Spencer,” Jon said.

this chant, this frenzy striking frenzy by oheartheart (R) It is nine o’clock in the morning on the second day of school, and Patrick is already in the principal’s office. Gorgeous and lovely...fond of the school nurse (“Caregiver!” Brendon would say defensively. “Nurses wear short white skirts,” he would add, maybe a little thoughtfully, making Ryan choke on his coffee or drop his papers).

Pictures of You by rivelare (R) It's not even Bandslash really, it's Tom and Jon and it's lovely. Oh, ohh, pictures! "Do you wanna get pizza?" Jon asked. Tom blurted out, "Are we ever...off his lips. Jon gave him a Look, capitalized because Jon might as well have had a patent on it, his long, dark eyebrows raised, his head tilted to the right. "Did you really just ask me that?"
