mostly about mikeyway (again)

Today on the bus I was concentrating so hard on the song on my iPod I almost missed my stop on the bus.

Look, it's not my fault, okay, you can't give me the first two or three minutes of "Famous Last Words" and expect me to remember things like "where I live" or "my immediate surroundings"! I have more important things to think about! Things like "GERAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD" and "MIIIIIIIIIIKEY" and "GERARD AND MIKEY" and "MIKEYWAY D: D: D: D: D:" and "BOOOOOOYS."

So, yes. Not my fault at all.

The other day [livejournal.com profile] fox1013 told me there should be a bandom AU for Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer. This is not surprising, because Fox thinks there should be a Rudolph AU for every fandom. We ended up casting Gerard = Rudolph, Mikey = Hermey, Frank = a misfit toy, Ray = Yukon Cornelius. I mention this not because it's that interesting on its own, but because the casting of Mikeyway as Hermey the Elf Who Wanted To Be a Dentist is brilliant in ways I cannot actually explain or make sense of. Like, Mikeyway makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE TO ME NOW, seriously. I feel like it has opened up new doors to him for me!

I was really happy at being scheduled to start at eleven all week, but today I agreed to come in at 8 tomorrow and Friday. SIGH. I will grin and bear it and imagine how lovely it will be to not die of starvation in January.

you do realize your leading my icon-christmasizing brain to seriously dangerous places?

...I hadn't, no, but I am intrigued now that you mention it!

Mikey as Hermey is inspired and I like Gerard as Rudolph, but can't you just see Pete in that part too? and then he and Mikey run away together because they're both misfits who don't fit in!

I can definitely see Pete doing the wacky SHE LIIIIIIIKES ME! spaz!

This is not surprising, because Fox thinks there should be a Rudolph AU for every fandom.

Technically that's not true.

I think there should be a CHRISTMAS SPECIAL AU for every fandom.

Some do not fit with Rudolph, and I would never push that, if they would rather be Year Without a Santa Claus or Frosty or whatever.

Oh! Oh! Or the one about the elf who wants to be a dentist!!!

You raise a valid point! I'm sorry I misrepresented your strongly held beliefs, darling. <3

See, this is why you're the greatest -- you put the warning in the subject line! There was no reading-four-paragraphs-of-post-oh-god-this-is-about-bandom-fucking-hell.

Also, since there are enough names in common with other fandoms, when people are like, "I want Ray/Bob!!!" I'm like, "...you want Vecchio and/or Kowalski to fuck a ghost? Huh...that might work."

Ahahaha, before I got into MCR, Ray/Gerard was the most confusing AND WRONG conceivable pairing ever, you know?

Even if I don't have warnings with my subject lines, you can usually tell by icon, at least! Random goofy dude you don't find attractive = SKIP.

Random goofy dude you don't find attractive

BEST DESCRIPTION EVER. Ha ha ha, man am I happy that you're able to like, enjoy your shiny funtimez fandom without being offended that I *don't*. YOU. YOU are allowed to be in bandom. :)

Dude, I have spent the last year and a half doing the "I love you guys, but I want to stab McShep in the FACE." I understand the other side fo the coin, you know?

[defriends you because of your persecution of my fandom]

OMG SPACE GAYS. SPAAAAACE. I might be more into bandom if it was about retarded ugly boys IN SPACE.

Really, it's a miracle I ever like any other kind of show.

You already have a fandom of retarded ugly boys in space! Why would you need two?

*shares fandom of hot only slightly dim selfish freaks in space with you*
