Anyone Else But You

College AU. Panic never formed at high school. Instead, they meet at college, and in between striking up a friendship with his working colleague Spencer and trying to ensure that his roommate Jon doesn’t get sick of him, in between forming a band and writing songs, Brendon would really appreciate it if his bandmate (and Spencer’s best friend) Ryan Ross didn’t turn out to be Brendon’s TA. Especially considering their fling just before the start of the term.*

The Sky-High City

This is a story about something that could maybe happen to Frank Iero after his band breaks up.*

The Dazzling Lances of Our Love

Frank wasn’t afraid of his emotions or anything. He laughed when he was happy and he yelled when he was mad. He said ‘I love you’ when it was true, and he hugged when he felt like it, and he still got all choked up when Gerard sang Cancer live and he didn’t care what anybody thought about it.*




Sparkle Motion

A Red So Deep

A Constantine movie AU, with a watered down plot and lots of scenes that don’t exist in the movie. This would probably make more sense if you’ve seen the movie, however.*




Staring Through the Demons

Sequel to How the West Was Won.*




How the West Was Won

Spencer really wishes that “sorry, I had to slay this vampire” was an excuse he could actually use for not having finished his homework. It’s not like it’s not true.* (AU in which the Panic boys are still in high school, and Spencer finds out he’s destined to be a Slayer, a la the Buffy verse.)

The First Rule of Broom-Wielding

“I hate Valentine’s Day,” Patrick says while tearing into the Taco Bell bag the runner brought to the studio for lunch.

The Fall and Rise of The Black Parade

At the end, it wasn’t that he didn’t realize he had a problem, that he was in trouble. It was just that, even knowing that, he couldn’t stop himself-or believed he couldn’t, which amounted to the same thing.*




Hear Me Out

It’s not so much the turning into a girl that’s a problem; that’s happened before. It’s the fact that Frank doesn’t turn back.*

Burn Baby Burn

In which there are more than three movie references, and Spencer and Bob swap bodies.*




I Find You Alluring

It was the best game William had ever conceived, and to be sure, William had conceived of many good games. But Steal-Everyone’s-Phones-And-Make-Inappropriate-Calls Game was both a great time waster and a time of wasted greatness. Oh yes.*




Girlverse: girl!Spencer/Bob

They started flirting the first time they met, when Pete took Spencer and Brendon to see MCR.*




I Never Knew I Needed You (Until You Told Me So)

Frank is an asshole sometimes. But that doesn’t mean that he can’t learn things about himself and other people. He just needs some encouragement sometimes.*




Penpals

He puts an ad out on New York Craigslist (so he doesn’t run into anyone from any scene) in the Strictly Platonic section. He sets up a new email account, one that starts MusicalGenius. He wants a pen pal. He gets a lot of creepy responses, and one he really likes.*

On tour, everything gets found out, and the stuff that doesn’t gets made up anyway. But tour is a good time to try things you might not have before.*




Unapologetic Love Story Part 2

second part not linked to the first




Unapologetic Love Story

Falling in love is an everyday thing.*




A Blue Ribbon on My Brain

Frank always feels the clumsiest when he’s doing this, touching Gerard like this. He runs sweaty fingers down Gerard’s spine, tracing slender muscles, scratching with blunt nails, lip sore between teeth and shallow breathing.*




Fantasy Book

At the time, it was like, Great, of course the fans who are waiting around to give you chocolate bars and like, are those Skittles?, and a whole fucking shitload of candy, of course they show up when you’re in the middle of rushing back to the hotel because Ray and Bob and Mikey all have food poisoning.*




Skin of the Canvas

I’ve always wondered why, when Gerard decided he wanted to save lives, he turned away from visual arts and started a band. This is an AU version of one answer. Gerard is still at SVA, having taken a while away to enter AA and get sober; Frank is a nude model and punk rocker who’s moved to New York City. Romance (and sneezing!) ensues.*

Sound Tracking

The beat is muted, almost non-existent, and the loss hits Bob hard. He’s used to living his life in a constant thrum of sound, sensing those around him, the rhythm of the universe a constant companion, but here there’s almost nothing. He can feel the sound that’s been pulling him for weeks now, but little else. This place is dead, almost silent, and Bob aches with the feeling of being cast into nothingness.*




25 Days of Bandom Xmas – Day One

It’s all Pete Wentz’s fault, the matching tshirts.*




Consolation Prize

Frank was sitting on the floor in Gerard’s basement room, waiting for Gerard to come shuffling down the basement steps with his holey, army green bag and messy hair.

I Just Want Your Extra Time (and Your… Kiss)

Frank takes a quick look in his rear view mirror, runs his fingers through his messy hair and then smiles at his reflection as he slides the key out of the ignition. He’s really fucking late, but that’s never a good reason to look anything less than hot. He grabs his cargo bag out of the passenger seat and flips the automatic lock on his second hand Honda and then walks as quickly as his short legs will carry him to the entrance of Penny Lane.* Retelling of Never Been Kissed.




Love Is the New Feel Awful

Gerard Way, a Cartoon Network peon in possession of the world’s worst taste in men, may have finally found the perfect boyfriend. Or a serial killer.* Based on the movie Head Over Heels.




Anything Please (Except for Defeat)

“What? Oh, geez, kid.” Gerard laughs, and it’s not mean, but the kid half-flinches back, a repressed sort of reaction, mostly suppressed but still visible. Gerard notices for the first time the way the line of his hips is sharp enough to cut paper. “Ryan,” he says, meeting Gerard’s eyes again. “My name is Ryan.”*




The One Where Bob Is Not a Masochist, Not Even a Little

“I just don’t wanna go alone,” Frankie has said, and tugged on Bob’s arm until he agreed to accompany Frank to the piercing studio.*

“This is political,” Gerard announces, and kisses him.*




Stripy Socks and Red Bull Shots

Brian is not entirely sure how he ended up with a half-naked Brendon Urie in his lap, just like he is unsure of how My Chem ended up on tour with Panic at the Disco in the first place.*

It’s Warmer When the Rum’s Gone

It’s the high seas at an indeterminate point in history. Gruesome Gerard and Lyn-z face off in a contest of who will be the dominant do-gooder, with Ray the cook, Mikey the first mate, Pete the stowaway, Frank the failed ninja, and assorted others falling over in the background. In short: pirate AU!*

Like Stubborn Boys With Big Green Eyes

“Bob, you’re the man for me. No one has ever made me happier, dude, seriously. Fuck Mikey, okay? I can do anything he can do, and better.” Follows the Future In Your Pictures.




Eight Times

Gerard recognizes him, and that’s not weird, but a little bit, because he was pretty sure the only boyband member he would recognize on sight was Timberlake and only then because of the whole “wardrobe malfuction” thing and whoa did that kid ever not pay his publicist enough.* In the same universe as 42.




Berkeleyverse

Spencer hangs out with Billie and Gerry. They go to girls’ school! They are bitches! It’s a very cool girls’ school, so there’s no uniforms and some classes are outdoors and they go on field trips to Mexico.




The High School Teacher AU

I saw a picture of Patrick and said, “Patrick teaches tenth grade science.” The rest wrote itself! Yes, the first section ends abruptly, but really, we were distracted by Gerard.*




Wait, What?

Spencer Smith can rattle off like a list of things she thinks are wrong with her life.*




39 Flavors

The first year they’d been together, Bob had called Spencer on Easter and said, “Happy Easter?” because he wasn’t really clear on exactly what Spencer’s brand of Christianity was. It didn’t seem to involve as much bitterness as Ryan’s, nor as much angst as Brendon’s, but it wasn’t exactly as lackadaisical as Jon’s, either, from what Bob could tell.*




And I Dream of What I Need

When one is the male princess of a magical kingdom, few things come as a surprise anymore.

The Sweetest Things Burn Before They Shine

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.




The Boys and Girls in the Clique

“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.*




Everyday Mysteries In the Summertime

It’s two thirty in the afternoon. A fly buzzes eagerly around the counter, the only living thing that isn’t drooping listlessly in the heat. It’s only June but the summer’s already gearing up for the kill, probably smelling blood in the water. The A/C has been out for a week.*




Walk Into the Sun

Sun beats down mercilessly on Gerard’s shoulders as he toes the edge of the browning lawn. Nothing in Jersey looks better by the light of day. The run-down houses, peeling paint and disrepair all stare back at him in sharp relief. He sighs. Everything hurts. He hasn’t had a drink in three days and he flushed the last of his coke down the hotel toilet before getting on the plane.*




Bruised Knees and Battered Shins

The end of the semester blows.*




Drama!AU Snippets

The Second One

Bob is a good personal assistant (the best) and he definitely knows better than to fall in love with his boss. But when your boss is the goth-pop comic master of our time, Gerard Way, there’s more to the job than keeping a datebook. There are appearances to shepherd him to, showers to make him take, and deadlines to remind him to meet. And, really, he’s so earnest, it’s not that surprising that a crush might develop. Just at tiny one.*




The Girl at the Rock Show

High school sucks, parents suck. Frankie is a 15 year old punk rock chick who pretty much hates her life. Her parents are always fighting, her mom is a bitch, she is not really popular. Then, she meets Gerard, a senior who spends his days watching clouds and stars and playing D&D.*




The Uncharted Sea

Gaslights burned steadily along the street, lighting patches of overnight fog a sickly yellow-brown. A few streets over the music halls and bars were roaring. Business was just drunk and rowdy enough to be spilling into the streets, but hadn’t gotten bad enough that the police had been called in for the nightly roust.*




It Might Be Instamatic

On Tuesday, Bob woke up four years old.*




Lines of Communication

Bob finds out what Ronon does for a living.* Follows Along the Wire and Heavy Connection.

The Flaming Box of Fiery Doom

Gerard is a magician. Bob is his surly assistant.*




Natural Disaster

It happens like this: Frank needs a new roommate.*




Heavy Connection

Bob meets Ronon in an emergency room in Colorado. That fact…yeah, says something about the both of them when you consider that it was a tragic accident involving a sander, some duct tape, and one of Gerard’s shoes that landed Bob there, while Ronon was hit by a fucking bus and is still conscious.*




Along the Wire

Bob might not remember why he decided to try to out-hardcore someone who was hit by a bus and remained conscious, but he’s totally invested in it now. And if Ronon just thought about it, he’d see just how badass Bob totally is. *




Bandswap

It wasn’t like he didn’t know these guys; not like he hadn’t spent weeks practically living in their back pockets during Warped. It was just… There was a difference between the screaming chaos that was a tour and this. Patrick took a deep breath, pulled his hat down, and knocked on the door of the bus.*




Count Down From Today

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.*




A Cage Went In Search of a Bird

Frank has lived his life within the narrow confines of his master’s house and his master’s bed. He was happy enough with what he knew; when he is liberated, he finds both great promise and complete confusion. (Set in an alternate universe U.S.)*




anon_lovefest: Post #61

Gerard is his usual lame-ass self, but for some reason people at school think he’s edgy and dangerous. Little dorky Frank doesn’t think he’s cool enough for Gerard. :D*




Any Place You’ll Allow (Rogues and Queens)

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.




Absense Sort of Does Make the Heart

When The Used finish their summer tour, finally, the first thing Bob does is pile some shit into his car.*




Worth It

Bob’s always a little excited when he leaves home, even the times when he’s actually reluctant to go.* Follows Absence Does Make the Heart.




Nightswimming

Frank wakes up to the muted chirp of his cell phone alarm at one in the morning on the Tuesday of the last week of summer school.* Follows Everyday Mysteries in the Summertime.




Of Color and Composition So Magnificent

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.*




In Which Frank is a Lip Virgin Who Can Drive

“Dude,” Gabe hollers, his voice barely rising above the din in the background. “Can you pick me up?”*




Step Eight

Mikey came awake to the buzzing of his pelvis and the annoyed realization that he’d clearly fallen asleep on his phone. He pulled it up, peered at the screen and noticed the time first. Three oh seven. Normally, that would have been enough for Mikey to just turn over and go back to sleep, figure he could deal with it in the morning, but there was only one number in the world that could bypass Mikey’s block on unidentified callers. Mikey pressed talk. “Ronon?”*




A Collection of Eighties Love Songs

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.*




Clouds Across the Moon

Bodolf was delirious with pain and fever for nearly a fortnight after the animal attack on their camp.*




The Saddle Club

There’s very little that Brendon loves more than his old pony Murray.*




Where the Heart Is

In which Valentine’s Day comes and goes and something finally explodes (Although not becasue of Gerard. This time.)* Follows the Beat That My Heart Skipped.




The Beat That My Heart Skipped

Umbrella Academy Cakes is known all over the Tri-State area for its fantastic and realistic custom cakes. What goes on inside the bakery is almost as complicated as the culinary art Gerard and his team produce. Ace of Cakes!AU*




Don’t Fear the Reaper

Gerard’s not the greatest with faces but there’s one that keeps crossing his path that he can’t ignore.*




A Little Frayed At the Edges

Canon revisited through a peculiar perspective. In which Bob has a condition that renders him unable to feel any kind of physical pain. He’s not a superhero, just someone with a genetic disease who tries to lead a regular life – of sort, going from being a drum tech to joining MCR to building a steady relationship with both Brian and Ray.*




Wuthering Heights and Stormy Nights

When Bry thought about her post-touring future, she always imagined herself crusading for truth, justice, and girls in the music scene. She’d picture herself managing female artists and female bands because that was where her passion lay, showing that girls had a place in the scene and a right to take it up. She never imagined My Chemical Romance.*




Where the Heart Is

In which Valentine’s Day comes and goes and something finally explodes (although not because of Gerard. This time.)* Follows The Beat That My Heart Skipped.




Three Cheers for Tyranny

Mafia AU. Loyalty – Respect – Honesty: values Frank takes to heart when he steps into position as Gerard Way’s bodyguard and confidant.*




Nothin’s Fair in Love or High School

Frank can deal with being a loser in high school, but he’d kind of like to stop being a loser who’s in love with his best friend, thanks.*




Tell Us a Story

It’s the end of the world as these kids know it, and Gabe Saporta is throwing the party.*




The Difference Between Lemonade and Metaphors

For all his experience and education, Bob thinks he could have been a little better prepared before joining a band, particularly this band. For example, he really would have liked a seminar on how to tell the difference between a metaphor and making idle conversation.*




Between the Wish and the Thing

Gerard has been in love with his best friend and bandmate for years. It sucks. Especially because he’s convinced himself that Frank does not feel the same. But a series of events including a long overdue break from touring, gastroenterology specialists, a new puppy and a visit from a know-it-all brother and his smart-as-hell wife, make Gerard question his assumptions.*




A Matter of Logistics

High school AU. Frank would like to know the logistics of going down on girls. Gerard can help him with that.*




Would You Believe Me (if I said I didn’t need you)

Marengo Tower was the Tower for wayward Talents, those who had been sent to the edge of the galaxy to rot. It was a punishment duty, though of course no-one ever called it that. So how on Earth or off it did they get assigned a Prime? And a member of the legendary Jonas family at that? What could he have done to merit Marengo? (An extension/AU of the Tower & Hive series of books by Anne McCaffery.)*




Any Note You Can Reach

Honestly, Gerard only even knows who Panic! at the Disco are because of all the shit Pete is always sending Mikey. Burned CDs, emails full of mp3 tracks, demos in varying stages of completion. Seemingly every single band Pete has any connection to at all winds up on Mikey’s iPod in the end, and it’s almost an accident that Panic’s album is the one Gerard chooses to listen to on the day his own iPod takes a nosedive off the edge of the shelf and directly into Gerard’s steaming cup of coffee, leaving him at Mikey’s (and, by extension, the Pete Wentz Music Empire’s) mercy until he can get it replaced.*




On the Midtown Direct

Gerard Way has a system for his morning commute.*
