Bob and Spencer’s band mates are conniving little shits, and they get a look at what constitutes romantic while on tour.
When Pete Wentz decides to write a soap opera, he doesn’t do it small; he does it HUGE and gets everyone involved. But is the real soap opera the one playing out for the television audience with Spanish villas and pirates and evil, sinister betrothals or the one behind the scenes that involves pill poppers, awesome partiers, live chickens, romantic gay love, wacky Three’s Company Too mix ups and betrayal of the worst and most heinous kind? Well, that’s kind of up to the crazy mix of actors, musicians, various crew and production members to decide for themselves. Even if they are the ones in the thick of it.
“Are you lost?” Spencer asked. “No,” the New Guy said, and continued to look in both directions while standing in the middle of the hall.*
Nick’s alarm goes off at an absolutely inhuman hour of the morning. He groans and sticks a couple of toes out from under his comforter and soon discovers that, yes, it’s still cold as a witch’s tit. Fucking unusual cold spell and its fucking… coldness.*
There’s a voice inside his head telling him that this is Bill, this is Bill in pain, he should be there, he should try to make it better, he shouldn’t leave Bill alone, and there’s another voice reminding him of how much Bill likes his privacy, that he should respect the few intact boundaries they have left.*
Marine Biology student Patrick Stump was looking to get away from everything when he signed up for an internship, but he didn’t expect to get sent all the way to southern Ireland. He’s been assigned to work with Pete Wentz and his whale watching tour business, and though he’d never admit it, the town and its crazy inhabitants may hold exactly what he’s been searching for.*
The one where they’re all grad students. Bob has a stupid crush on Frank, Frank’s stupidly oblivious, and Gerard and Pete are stupid for each other.*
Gabriela Saporta isn’t some pop princess. From Humble Beginnings to Midtown to Cobra Starship, she lives life her own way and damn the consequences.*
It’s a Friday night, and the rest of Midtown is at a hot wings place trying to beat the locals at trivia. Normally Gabe would be with them, but he’d been sidestage watching the Academy set tonight when Bill had demonstrated pole-dancing with his microphone stand, so he has other plans.*
There’s a pirate hiding in the C-deck stairwell.* In the same universe as Behind the Sea.
Mike answers on the second ring with “What the Hell?” and Kevin knows he’s getting off easy.*
It’s about three a.m. when the guy comes in, Frank guesses, because he’s just getting the itch for a cigarette but knows he doesn’t have another break coming for a while. The guy is young, although not that young, not a college kid on his first strip joint tour or hazing for a frat, and anyway he doesn’t look like the type.* Sequel to Straight Up Chicago Style.
“Wait, you’re the psychic?” isn’t the best first impression Gabe has ever made.* In the Behind the Sea verse.
Art School AU. Brendon Urie, street artist from New York City gets and offer he cannot refuse – a full scholarship to a reputable art school in Chicago. After leaving his two room mates, the only family he has, Brendon has to learn to adjust to the new environment and art scene. He finds himself entangled in the webs of friendships and relationships as he meets new people. This is a year in their shoes.*
The Jonas family is well known for their purity rings and religious views, and it’s good to see that it hasn’t prevented Kevin from denying who he is. This magazine is behind you 100%, Kevin Jonas, and wish you and Mike Carden a happy marriage!*
“Word on the street is that you’re bearing the fruit of my good friend’s loins.” William says, draping himself against Kevin’s back, and Kevin considers the logistics of crawling inside of his locker and dying.*
“This isn’t exactly what I thought you had in mind when you said retreat, bro,” Gabe comments, fingers digging into muscle just enough to make William’s shoulders rise.*
He’s glad he didn’t know about William’s questionable lifestyle choice before they met, because he’d had this vision in his head of what Shakespearean actors were like, and frankly he wanted nothing to do with those weirdos.*
Mike shrugged, and why couldn’t Kevin be more like Mike? He could lose his Disney status within a set time frame if he could just act like that.*
Kevin hasn’t seen Mike in over a month, and maybe he’s a little bit annoying. So maybe his brothers and Bill lock him and Mike in a closet.*
Some love stories fizzle out in a haze of missed chances and regrets, while others break under rejection and denial. When Bob and Spencer meet, they are bruised around the edges, tired and lonely, but they find something in each other that’s worth holding on to.*
Kevin’s breathing goes all shuddery, bordering on gasping, and Carden oh-so-slowly pets him there, right on the side of his throat, and shushes him and Kevin thinks, a little hysterical, that if he’s trying to calm him down the petting thing is totally not working.*
Brendon’s more of an in-your-face naked guy, while Mike’s nakedness sneaks up on you out of nowhere. It’s like Kevin doesn’t realize Mike isn’t wearing pants until he realizes Mike *isn’t wearing pants.*
William is not entirely certain how this happened, how he became a veritable magnet for downtrodden orphans, but he’s going to blame John.*
“Notice how the skinny tie makes him look less like he’s carrying shrunken baby heads around in his pockets.”* Follows Dancing Goes All Night.
Patrick Stump is one day out of prison, and already has an idea for the biggest heist of his career. But he’ll need some friends to help him out.*
Kevin’s confession loses him one family, gains him one; he still manages to come out ahead, somehow.*
FBR’s Hot Messes versus the Jonas Brothers’ Road Dogs in an epic battle of the softball titans.*
It turns out coming to terms with a shift in sexual orientation isn’t any easier the second time around.*
Where Kevin is only half a son, Nick has got Miley pregnant, Joe has chosen the wrong Taylor and Frankie is two years shy of a teenage rebellion that will put everyone else’s to shame.*
That’s what I think of when you say ‘snakes on a plane’. I think of unplanned pregnancies.*
When he gets home, styrofoam cup in hand, Gabe is sitting outside his door with that ever-present cigarette between his lips. “Sorry?” he offers, though it’s distant and lacking feeling. William just shrugs and lets Gabe into his apartment. Once they’re inside, he takes a drag of Gabe’s cigarette and Gabe takes a sip of his coffee and they end up fucking on William’s old, beat-up couch.*
Again, Gabe has managed to fall asleep. It’s a miracle, he thinks, and he’s having a fabulous dream about William, naked, with a Cobra hanging from his neck, when he feels something poking at his head. He slowly opens his eyes to meet the deer-in-the-headlights face of William Beckett. He says, “Um?*
Usually, when William comes, Gabe’s vision fills with bursts of robin’s egg blue. But when Gabe really works for it, really makes William feel it, sometimes focusing so much on his lover that he himself never reaches climax, William comes and Gabe sees rainbow. William comes hard and his voice can’t pick a key, ranging from high to low as he whimpers and moans and it’s all so musical that Gabe can hardly breathe and he ends up coming anyway.*
When Pete Wentz throws a Halloween party, he doesn’t just set out some pumpkins and peeled grapes. After due consideration and some time with the other guests (for values of ‘other guests’ that mean ‘Mike Carden’), Kevin is glad.*
For two boys who aren’t even dating, there’s an awful lot of drama going down.*
In which Kevin is a sad little elf, and Mike panics and buys way the fuck too much tinsel.*
In which Kevin realizes Mike is his Disney princess, and Mike realizes Kevin would look hot naked.*
Mike is an angry 17 year old who’s been exiled from home for the summer while his parents finalize their divorce. Shipped off to William’s place, he’s startled to find that William has somehow found himself a shifty older boy friend, and an angel in the attic.*
Kevin quits showbiz, gets a divorce, goes to college, starts a band, and gets adopted by crazy people.*
“We’ll get it, and it’ll be cute for a day, and then I’ll be the one stuck feeding it and cleaning up after it,” Kevin says, trying to aim for his mom’s scary face and probably falling flat, because Mike just crowds into his space and smiles slow.
“Isn’t that exactly the same thing you said when I mentioned wanting kids?” he asks.*
Every Saturday night, every teenager in town tuned into Radio Freedom. Mike’s their biggest fan, and that was before he met their star DJ. Otherwise known as the pirate-radio AU.*
After the Jonas Brothers stopped being the Jonas Brothers and went back to being the plan old Jonas brothers, Joe went to LA to work in movies, Nick went to New York to work on music, and Frankie rebelled and ran off to Chicago. Kevin, though. Kevin just got divorced.*
Kevin has a big, fat crush and a guitar class with Mike. Did I mention Kevin shares a dorm room with one Adam T. Siska… or that Mike happens to live with Bill who basically runs campus? Meanwhile the band is planning a huge surprise for the President’s annual Winter Soiree.*
Kevin Jonas, resident Maid Marian, is the eldest son of an infamous crime lord, and he is quiet, polite, shy, and very obedient. At least, until his sprawling suburban home is burglarized by Mike Carden, resident Robin Hood (sort of).*
The week that all of Kevin’s friends leave to go to college, he turns off the phone and plays eight different games of Monopoly with Nick.*
Mike doesn’t really know how these things happen to him. No, wait, he does. He can totally blame it on Bill. / Kevin doesn’t really know how these things happen to him. It’s possible he was a disobedient lemur in a past life and this is how the universe is letting him make amends. Or maybe there’s like, some kind of quota for number of crazy things a person has to do in his life, and fate’s just helping him along. But probably, probably it’s just Joe’s fault.*
Kevin Lucas is not a girl, even if he did just wake up as one. He’s handling it pretty well though; especially once he gets some highly unexpected help from Mike Carden, William Beckett, and Brendon Urie, who isn’t a girl either. But with his parents worried, his brothers suspicious, and Spencer Smith apparently plotting his demise, waking up as a girl might actually be the least of Kevin’s problems. [JONAS-verse]*
Mike Carden is a student without a scholarship who needs to find a way to fund his studies, fast. When William suggests Mike try out for the coed cheerleading squad, the Northeastern University Cobras, Mike mans up and lands his first sober back tuck in years. Kevin Jonas and Nic Anderson are two star college cheerleaders who have transferred to the Cobras after a mysterious scandal had them leaving their last school right before the National competition they were a shoo-in to win. Mike may have only scraped his way onto the team by the skin of his teeth, but with Kevin as his room mate, maybe he can master the stag tuck, the pom-pom wielding, and the insults from every other athlete department on campus. And maybe Kevin can learn how to be a real boy (who likes boys) beyond the limits of the life he left behind. [college cheerleading AU]*
