My icon is from Arrested Development, but really, when ISN'T it appropriate?

Several more things about my current bandslash fascination:

a) Without making any attempt at any specific genre beyond "good writers" and "fall out boy-centric", over the course of this weekend I have read a high school AU, a superhero AU, a craigslist AU, boy-wakes-up-a-girl fic, wingfic, vampire fic, antichrist fic, tons of underage smut, and many stories that actually deal with, you know, these boys in this one band. Pretty much all of it has been awesome.

b) There seems to be no direct connection between who I am attracted to and who I want to read fic about. I'll try most anything, but most of what I'm reading has been Pete/Patrick -- which is partly Zee's fault, because it's her OTP, but also there's a lot of good quality stuff of it. But even though they're all kind of adorable in their own ways in youtube clips and picspam, Joe Trohman and Jon Walker from Panic are totally the ones who make me go "wow, I have a total ridiculous crush on you and want to DATE you. The hell?"

c) My favorite picture changes very frequently but right now -- as it has been for most of the day -- it is totally Pete Wentz at the VMAs, wearing a cape and making out with a monkey. I have no words.

HI THERE. On a completely different note, I am trying to figure out how to make bit torrent work on this computer. My success or lack thereof will determine whether or not I get to see Rome anytime soon. (Roooooome! I need my Titus Pullo fix!)

I imagine lots of my friendslist has already gone to bed and is thus seeing this for the first time on Monday morning, and so I present a gift to you, to make up for the morning-of-Monday-crappiness. Fraser loves you, you know. He wants you to stick with it.

god, i hope monday morning isn't too crappy. i mean, i'm operating under the assumption that it's a federal holiday, and so i didn't come back from canada yet :)

maybe the crappy bit comes in when america lets me come back.

I hope your noncrappiness has continued on!

I'm pretty sure Jon Walker has magic powers. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't adore him.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

As far as I have observed so far, that seems to be exactly how it should be. Yay.

Those of us who have stayed up are also happy to see Fraser’s thigh.

Nnnngh. I’m off to my bunk...

It is a present for EVERYONE, really.

Link a bitch up!!

Also, thank you for boy-in-underwear pic. It was much appreciated on the wee early monday morning (2:30am Monday counts, no?)

Heh, I have to get all my feedback reading before I link. But you can always peruse the tags at <lj user="damnyouwentz".

omg that picture. /thud

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I have posted it before, but it does not ever get old.

[aimeelicious]

I am sad that I have missed it in the past, for lo, it is life changing.

[sdwolfpup.livejournal.com]

Wow that's a nice, nice picture. All Mondays should start this way.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Seriously, what is not improved by judicious amounts of Fraser?

Dude - just a word of warning. Be very careful about downloading HBO shows; they do actually take measures to try to track down IP addresses and send C&D letters. If you can get Rome on a private tracker, definitely go for it.

Thanks for the advice.
