Summary:

Patrick is a solo artist who's sunk his heart and soul into a second album that's failing to chart. Obviously what he needs to bump up sales and dirty up his nice guy image is a sex scandal. His music label hire amateur porn star and aspiring poet Pete to pose as Patrick's boyfriend and together they make one intimate video destined for infamy on the internet.

Patrick falling for Pete isn't part of the plan.

A/N: I need to give massive thanks to pennyplainknits for alpha reading and handholding, also big love to melusina and girlpearl for encouraging this madness at every turn. Huge, huge thanks to anoneknewmoose for stellar beta, fixing all my stupid mistakes and making this readable. Big props to my entire twitter feed for being a bunch of enablers! Love you guys.

Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Canon fuckery - this is an AU which borrows heavily from canon, but it's still an AU.
Summary:
"You and me, right Mikes?"

"Yeah, fuck everybody else."

Best friends since high school, if Frank could've chosen a brother, he'd pick Mikey. Then Mikey became a rock star and Frank... didn't. After years of radio silence, Mikey steps onto a stage in Jersey and back into Frank's life.

(Or, the one where Frank is a school teacher and Mikey plays rhythm in The Used.)

A/N: This story owes a lot to a lot of people. To anoneknewmoose for stellar beta and making sure I knew it was worth posting. To mizubyte for straightening out my canon fuckups (she drew me a diagram of the Starland Ballroom, you guys!) and being generally brilliant. To jenepel and silly_cleo the most awesome Nano gurus without whom this story wouldn't even have been finished, and to turps33, kopperblaze, cee_m and my entire twitter feed for continually reassuring me that there were people out there who actually wanted to read this ridiculous story. Lastly, to the awesome bandombigbang mods for running the challenge beautifully and being super helpful and amazing.

Author's Notes: To anoneknewmoose for convincing me there was at least one person out there who wanted to read Mikey and Ray's backstory from Timetravelverse, and also for beta-ing the shit out of this. Huge thanks to my girl mizubyte for canon checks, holding my hand and being awesome.

A story that spans fourteen years.

Please Be All Mine by xoxxblitz7

Here is a few things in no particular order!

Signal boosts:

1. pikasafire is hosting a not-in-November Nanowrimo! 50k in a month, and it doesn't even have to be ONE fic. I am going to try to finish all these WIPs I got lying around. We'll see how well I do with that, eh?

2. Over on dreamwidth there is a Really Awesome Looking Bandom Rec Meme going on. I read all the way to the bottom and got sad when I ran out of comments, so go rec stuff! There's a lotta Panic happening RN and you know what they say about variety? \o/?

3. bigbang_mixup looks interesting! It's a reverse big bang where you can submit a fanmix and someone will write fic to it. Sadly, this one is all-fandom and it looks like no one from bandom is signed up as yet. I started thinking about a mix I'd like to make and wound up bunnying myself with a story. Oh my GOD I am NOT allowed to start any new fics. No no NO.

Has there ever been a Bandom Reverse Big Bang? That would be awesome. Someone should get on that. :D?

4. In my bbb procrastinations, I updated my Masterlist! Thanks everyone for your kind input in the poll, it was most helpful!

5. People are starting to talk about their BBB posting dates and art and mixes, but I haven't got mine yet /o\. Wave 2 has been so weird for me because it hasn't been a crazy big rush with me writing 20 000 new words in the last weeks before deadline. The fic itself hasn't really CHANGED that much in a while and I keep getting stuck in the "ugh, I don't like it, no one will read it whine whine whine" place. But hey, I am VERY excited for lots of new fic and so many of my favourite writers have written for this wave, so that's cool.

6. Anyone got time to look over a little 2k ficcy thing for me?

7. Because I am a sheeple, let's have this meme that everyone is doing:

If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach.
— Alfred Hitchcock

When I write a story, what do you immediately look for?

I know, I know, porn. Humour me?

I'm BACK Bitches!

So hey, guess what I did on Friday? I posted my bandombigbang! At like, ass-o-clock in the morning because I HAD to get it out before the weekend and there was no way I was gonna have time to do it at work. I spent all of Friday being sleep deprived and slap happy but I'm so SO relieved to have it done. I mean, I know it could have used another few days polishing but W/E, W/E, gawd I'm just glad to have it FINISHED. I will have my EVENINGS BACK. (Seriously I was spending every spare moment I had working on that thing. I really cut it fine. Thank GOD for mizubyte and desfinado being awseome.)

Oh lord, I can't believe I actually finished it and posted it.

( Wherein I blather about my bbb and how it came about. )

Anyhoo, if you like the sound of a great big pile of words that is basically me using time travel as an excuse to write lots of porn and dress skunkhawk!Frank in Killjoys garb, feel free to check out James Cameron Got It Wrong. It's like my love letter to the Terminator movies, right down to the ridiculous logic and plot holes. You have to love James Cameron for giving us those.

If you don't feel like reading the fic, dear GOD just treat yourself and check out the AMAZING art by my_twistedshell which is GORGEOUS. I am IN LOVE with it and her. *_____* I also have three gorgeous mixes, that seriously nearly made me CRY, they're so good. Free music, anyone?

Also, I'm just going to leave this here:



Because, you know, if Frank were to run into his clone he would "embrace the double. And use it to DO THINGS." And he would be happy to have another person LIKE HIM around. And the rest of the band think this is all FABULOUS and would do the same. And Mikey thinks they should come up with a secret code RIGHT NOW because obviously this is going to happen and they need to have a PLAN.

HI THERE I ACCIDENTALLY WROTE CANON.

The other cool part of getting my evenings back is that I can now catch up on all the awesome fic I haven't been able to read because I've been writing crazy timetravel fic. ( It's a NOT-REC list! Because I haven't actually read the fics yet! )

IN CONCLUSION: ( HERE IS BRENDON URIE HOLDING A KITTEN )
