For: arsenicjade
Title: Crunchy And Taste Good With Ketchup
Pairing: Bob/Gerard
Rating: R
Warnings: swearing, fluff, DRAGONS
Summary: Bob is a dragon. Gerard is his treasure. 8400 words.
Author's Notes: This is probably not the story arsenicjade expected. It is not the story I expected to write for her, that's for sure. I originally started with an entirely different idea that, frankly, ended up being dead boring. I was discussing the situation with rue_quercus and seimaisin and this story appeared. They, along with exitsign, were invaluable in its creation. rue_quercus and seimaisin also deigned to beta for me as well. They are awesome.

( seriously, do not meddle )

Band(s): My Chemical Romance (with a brief appearance by members of Fall Out Boy)
Pairing(s): Bob Bryar/Brian Schechter
Word Count: ~ 26,800
Rating/Warnings: NC17
Author Notes: This story was born in chat with amandazillah, fleshed out in chat with exitsign and rue_quercus. It wouldn't exist without them. farwing was brave enough to take on the job of beta reading my purple, purple prose and the story would be poorer without her intercession. Any errors that remain are strictly on my shoulders. When I originally conceived the idea for this, it was truly epic, covering six years, two continents, and several tours.

Luckily, cooler heads prevailed.

Summary: Bob Bryar is a man of mystery, even Frank says so. What if there was a reason for his reticence?

Fanmixes!

So in the middle of writing the Bob/Trish epic, I also ended up helping rue_quercus finish off a story that'd been stalling out on her.

It's girl!Gee/Frank. It's smoking hot. You should go read it.

Title: and weather in the heart alike
Author: carleton97
Pairing: Bob/Trish (always a girl! Patrick), ~16,700 words
Rating: NC-17

Disclaimer: If you googled yourself, or someone you know, go away.

The title of this and the cut text are from Adrienne Rich.

Thanks to:

exitsign for the first 8,000 words of this story & rue_quercus for the last 1000. Without the two of them, who knows if this would ever have happened.

fayemeadows and lallybroch were brave enough to offer to beta this monster. Well, fayemeadows offered. lallybroch was conscripted even though she's not a part of bandom, she's not crazy about any of the bands, and her husband ruthlessly mocks Dead On Arrival whenever he plays Rock Band. They're both awesome for reading through my craziness and any and all mistakes left are mine.

Notes: OK, so these are totally going to be tl;dr. Sorry.

This all started back on at the end of October, right after I fell headlong into bandom. exitsign and I would spend days emailing back and forth all squeetarded about THEIR PRECIOUS FACES! I had just finished reading nafs fantastic Patrick/Nick Carter story and desperately wanted to write some Bob/Nick Carter, but exitsign shut that down pretty quick. Instead, I got the image in my head of Bob getting turned into a wee tiny child and we spent a couple of days going back and forth about that (it's hilarious and if she gives the OK, I may post it just as chatfic), and at the end of it, out of the blue, I say:

You know what I was thinking this morning that I've never seen, but would BE THE BEST THING IN ALL THE WHOLE WORLD?

girl!Patrick/Bob. Either always a girl or genderswitch. homg.

That was October 31, 2007. It's taken me four months, and nearly 17,000 words, but I wrote it. And now you should read it.

We started this particular story a long time ago and parts of it are actually written by Jane herself. All the awesome parts are hers. I'm a horrible cheater pants when it comes to Janemas. Mea culpa.

Spoilers: None.
Archive: Yes, keep headers attached
Summary: One day in Speed's lost year.

Disclaimer: Not mine. Never were. I make no money from them.

Author's note: Part of the background that was on the CBS.com site for Speed was that, when he was a senior in high school, his best friend was paralyzed in a snowmobile accident. The friend (I call him David) dies a year or two later and Speed drops off the face of the earth for a year, reappearing on David's uncle's doorstep in Miami. This story takes place in that missing year and is part of two series I'm currently working on - a multi-fandom tattoo series and a denial!verse crossover AU.

Title: Shadows Keep On Changing
Author: carleton97
Pairings/Characters: Dean Winchester/Tim McGee
Rating: NC17
Category: slash
Word Count: 1780

Notes/Warnings: I started this for the ncis_flashfic "Supernatural" challenge, but couldn't finish it in time. It's mostly just sex, kids. The planned sequel, otoh... well, that's mostly just sex too.

( there are more things... )

Now with added sequel! i'm just giving you a warning

So, I was just tooling around my own LJ to see the fic I've written lately (part of a convo with lallybroch) and I realized that I never posted or posted a link to the Yuletide story I wrote this past December!

Here it is!
