I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only bandom-resister turned bandom-can't-get-enougher! I just honestly never expected to like the music or find the guys cute. I've never really been that into musicians in the past. And yet! I like the music a lot, and the guys just keep getting more and more adorable.

Yay, I'm thrilled I could turn someone else onto "the last good thing about this part of town." I've read that story about fourteen times now, and it still makes me giddy every time.

And yes! I have read the Houselights verse, and LOVED, LOVED, LOVED it. I've known Linz for a while now, since our old SV days together, and she's been encouraging my new bandom enthusiasm. I want to do another recs set of canon-based stories, and the Houselights verse will be at the top of the list.

I am hoping to have some Pete/Patrick writing inspiration, but nothing has come to me yet. I guess I'll just have to immerse myself some more! :)
