Two recs for you today:

Center Parts and Awkward Smiles by impertinence. I hereby claim this story in the name of all Pearl-os everywhere, okay? High school AU Pete/Mikey, with asshole Pete, nonchalant Mikey, and belated realizations. Imp, you make me think totally creepy thoughts about making you write bandslash stories for nonstop forever. It's gross. <3<3<3

play it again sam (and this time make it count) by sathinks. Mikey fic! Oh, man, this presses like ten different buttons for me. Pete/Mikey and Alicia/Mikey, and it gives weight to both of them and treats them with respect. The Pete/Mikey relationship is sad and bittersweet, but still hopeful and happy in its own way; even if they didn't make it as a couple, they're still friends, and they've both turned out all right. Also, Mikey judging karaoke!

In other news, bandom's reaction to the news of Frank and Jamia's wedding just reminds me why this is my favorite fandom of ALL TIME.

WOT!? FRANK GOT MARRIED? TO THAT H0R? BUT HE'S SUPPOSED TO MARRY GERARD BOB ME!!!!!!

Oh... wait.

Seriously, the fact that the reaction across all the good bits of the internet has been absolute, unrepentent joy and wishes for their eternal happiness makes me love this fandom so much. WE JUST WANT OUR PEOPLES TO BE HAPPY!

If fandom really does have any hive mind powers at all, they are totally going to get a happily ever after.

Exactly. ♥

eep. thank you. ♥♥

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

It's a loving kind of wanting to eat your brain, I swear.

[impertinence.livejournal.com]

that coupled with Gerard being a total weirdo in your icon is making me laugh and laugh.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

This is my favorite default icon of all time, I swear. Gerard, what the hell is the matter with you? Don't ever stop.

*om nom nom nom*

God, they're just so fucking cute with the married and cute and MARRIED.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yes! They are just irresistible. ♥

[photo-confused.livejournal.com]

they got married? really? Thats awesome lol!!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yep!

[spilltoblue.livejournal.com]

It warmed my bitter little heart to see page upon page of YAY FINALLY!s in response to the wedding news. Especially because the fact that Frank very obviously thinks the sun shines out of Jamia's ass reaffirms my faith in true love.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Seriously! I am happy.

Isn't it just lovely? I adore this idea. I mean, they trade pictures of hotel lamps... And it's all just *understood* and they communicate without having to say everything out loud over and over. I was so happy reading this fic.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

It was really happymaking.

Isn't it awesome?? I haven't seen one negative comment about it ANYWHERE, which is just...god, bandom, I love you ♥

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Bandom = awesome.

[athousanderrors.livejournal.com]

Bandom is awesome, seriously. I've never seen another fandom be this gleeful and dorky over one of its' pin-ups marrying. I think the OVERWHELMING ADORABLENESS OF FRANKNJAMIA overpowers all evil. *nods solemnly*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yay bandom!
