Hazard of the profession

Every time I have to do music searches for work, it puts me in such a mood for bandslash. Today I read Pete/Patrick genderswap. AND I LIKED IT!!!

Quite a lot, actually.

I've been reading AI fic.

Oh, look. Is that four horsemen thundering down the road??

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

LOL! It totally is the apocalypse, because now I'm reading another story by the same author of the genderswap, and it's mpreg.

I can't help myself! She's a really good writer!

My excuse is that it's astolat. Which is a pretty good excuse, I think. *g* I haven't ventured further out yet, but I HAVE been watching some YouTube videos and gah, just kill me now!

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, astolat can make me read any fandom. A few weeks ago, I watched "LA Confidential" again, and then I had to go back and re-read all her fan fic. I really think those are the hottest stories in the whole universe.

Seriously. The universe!

Ahaha, I think I know what fics you're talking about. And they're awesome. \o/

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

They're totally awesome! And Pete and Patrick are so cute. Good times, Linz, good times!

[linzeestyle.livejournal.com]

Pete and Patrick were totally my gateway drug into RPS and bandslash. They are precious! And hey, if you want any other fic, I can hook you up... ;)

longtime_lurker's stuff? I just discovered it too and I love it.

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

Yes!!! I'm loving it so much. People keep making me work today, and I just want to read about Pete and Patrick having a baby. If that's wrong, I don't want to be right!!!

Welcome to the party.

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

Oh my God, I have it so BAD. I want to quit my job and do nothing but read about Pete and Patrick and their sexy-sweet OTP-ness.

[ethrosdemon.livejournal.com]

HI!

That was my gateway drug, too. All is lost.

Bandom is ♥

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

I am really having fun with it! There are so many hot, well-written stories. I can see why so many people from SGA fandom got sucked into it.

[iamtheenemy.livejournal.com]

Oh baby, Pete and Patrick got me into bandom too. They're amazing. giddygeek also writes some good Patrick/Pete. Additionally, if you want more information on the bands, I wrote an overview for the crack_van, which I enjoy pimping out as much as possible. You can find that here (http://community.livejournal.com/crack_van/2995848.html). And recs, obviously! Many, many recs are here (http://www.strawtogold.net/steph/bandslashindex.htm). Enjoy! :)

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

Thank you! This is great. I have all these things I'm curious about. That overview is just what I need. I've been devouring giddygeek's stories, and yay for more recs!

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

I have to tell you how much I've been enjoying your recs. They've given me many hours of giddy Pete/Patrick enjoyment! Thank you!

[iamtheenemy.livejournal.com]

That's so awesome! I'm glad that you're enjoying them! Have you branched out past Pete and Patrick yet, or are you still wallowing in that pairing (not that I blame you)?

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

I'm still mostly all about the Pete/Patrick, but I did learn who the members of MCR are, and watched some of their videos, and bought two of their CDs. I really like their music. And of course, they show up in a lot of Pete/Patrick stories, so I'm definitely developing a fondness for them.

But...Pete/Patrick! I just find them so romantic!!

LENORE.

NO. LENORE. NO. BACK AWAY, LENORE! BACK AWAY QUICKLY BEFORE THEY FIND YOU.

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

I can't help myself! Pete and Patrick are really kind of adorable, and the fandom has all these zany, hot, well-written stories. I'm listening to their music as I'm typing this--which, by the way, I am WAY too old for.

So. Yeah. It's like that.

[tardis80.livejournal.com]

ahahaha I know which story you're talking about. OMGSOGOOD♥ Want recs (http://delicious.com/tardis80/pete%2Fpatrick) (Pete/Patrick)?

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

Oh my God, I spent much of the weekend gorging myself on Pete/Patrick stories. And now I'm at work listening to their music, pretending it's "research." Thanks for feeding the beast with recs!

[niciasus.livejournal.com]

Funny thing, I'm not into bandslash. But, man, I have read a couple of femmequixotic Pete/Patrick stories and really like them.

[scribblinlenore.livejournal.com]

Yes! I just read some stuff by her and enjoyed it very much. What I love so far about bandom slash is that it seems very much like SGA fandom in that there are a lot of really well-written stories and people seem to whole-heartedly embrace the zaniest fan fic cliches. And the stories are so hot!

[niciasus.livejournal.com]

Also, Pete Wentz, hee, makes slashing so easy. I see someone posted a link to recs. Gleefully rubbing my hands. Yes!
