the correct answer, in case you're wondering, is MFY

I'm going to go laugh forever.

Edited to add: Apparently the Pete picture was posted to his buzznet in Feb 2006, and Alicia's hair dates hers to probably sometime around April 2006.

Your kink is DEFINITELY okay! :D

Bert throws a wrench into the proceedings a little, though, I think. Seriously, Gerard, what's up with that?

YOU WOULD SAY THAT. D:

Bert is an anomaly! um. Gerard is denying his true desires?

SERIOUSLY THOUGH: I am kind of convinced that Gerard and Mikey are actually from the Planet Of The Genderswapping Aliens. Think about it! It explains so much. They like to date matched sets, because on their HOME WORLD, they would have dated people who were sometimes boys and sometimes girls.

PLEAS NOTE THAT THIS ALSO EXPLAINS WHY THEY ARE SOMETIMES PRETTY LADIES.

I SEE YOU HAVE THOUGHT THIS THEORY THROUGH VERY WELL!!!

the only question that remains to be answered is whether or not they KNOW about this. Like - are they aware of the way of things on their home planet? do they even KNOW that they're space aliens? Are they just hiding it all? is that the REAL reason their old drummer left?

Or will we eventually get HORRIFIED REVELATIONS? and AWKWARDNESS?

AND ORGIES.

I am pretty sure with you, the orgies are inevitable no matter what.

...you may have a point there. /o\

I am intrigued by your ideas and would like to subscribe to your newsletter. :-D

the real question, at this point, is whether or not they know. Like - did Mikey actually realize he was dating two separate people? or did he just think it was kind of cute that Pete/Alicia went by different names for different bodies?

OH MAN, though. Now I really want to know what it was like when THEY were growing up, swapping back and forth and CONFUSING EVERYONE. awkward teenage craziness: CAN ONLY BE IMPROVED BY ACCIDENTAL GENDERSWAP.

*gasp!* *big eyes*

...Tell me more? :-D

heeeee. the Ways figure out pretty early that other people aren't Like Them, although it takes them both a while. So they, you know. They try to keep to one gender or another! and to keep things mostly constant (although Mikey is a girl for all of 10th grade, and nobody really notices).

But I think that they've got to get curious, at some points - that, or bored, or they just can't keep it under control because they're freaking out or whatever - and then they switch back and forth a lot. And, like - it's not super-obvious; one of the things about things on Their Planet is that they're pretty androgynous either way. Nobody really notices, and so there's not a whole hell of a lot of incentive for either of them to figure out how to stop it, so they...just never do.

And some mornings, Gerard is a girl, and some evenings, Mikey is, and sometimes neither, and sometimes both.

:-O!!!


:-D!!!!!!

*claps* HOORAY!

...this should be an actual story. I would read the SHIT out of that story. :-D

[etben.livejournal.com]

heeeee! I make no promises, but given that I now have several different people poking me about this? chances are high.

*adds it to the WIP-box*

*GASP!*

MORE HOORAY!
