*planted firmly in stage nine*
*wobbles*
At this point I'm not even not-writing because it's RPS, or because it's lame, or because they're a boy-band-for-crying-out-loud. At this point I'm not-writing because I know next to nothing of the "canon" (timelines, who sings what, etc.) and am afraid of perpetuating fanonical stereotypes and being regarded as a poor writer.
So apparently there's not much I won't stoop to do, as long as I can be assured of doing it well.
I'm kind of pleased by this realization, actually. *grins*

Everything you need to know to slash these bastards. In depth. It's wonderful.

Anyone wanna give me a good Joey/Chris bunny?
(Have also just read about Lois seeing the puppies at a U2 concert. Tell me not to write a crossover? Please?)

No wonder boyband-fandom is so stereotyped. Y'all fightin' like girls, sheesh. Get with it, yo. [/bad Justin imitation]
And once upon a time, I thought Lance had freaky-eye syndrome as well. Then I watched 'Making the Tour', and *that* excuse to hide behind went right out the window.
And yes, Vali, they do dress horribly. Their mothers should all be ashamed at what those boys wear. But it doesn't make them any less fun to slash. (And they don't wear stuff that's any worse than what Bon Jovi wore in the eighties.)
