Space! Future! Boys! Tea! New Brunswick!

[provetheworst]

New Brunswick!

(I've used it as a location in this 'verse before, but this time I had a concrete reason beyond "oh man I need a name for this planet!" and that reason was the motto. spem reduxit innit?)

[xcarex]

It is, oh it is! Sure, we're the country's most useless province with nothing to offer anyone except some pretty good poutine and decent salmon fishing (which is why I moved away to Halifax immediately after high school)... but the motto is something I've always loved.

[cyanei]

What does it mean? And do all provinces have mottos, or just the old ones? I don't think Alberta has a motto! If it does I don't know it!

PS: kaitoucheckers, this is amazing. If Pete Wentz ever dies his bandmates should hire you to make blog posts for him so we don't suspect. Uh, that's a really creepy compliment, sorry. I'm kind of creepy.

LOVE IT.

[quettaser]

Oh I love this! You use just enough detail to paint the picture of this world without overwhelming with context. It's still Pete and it's still Patrick only this time their distance is physical instead of metaphorical and, wow. Amazing. ♥ ♥

sometimes youre better off keeping your friends closer than your enemies

[eleanor_lavish]

You're Pete, aren't you. I mean, clearly you ARE-- you write porn about William and Travis and fucking in zero-G, and that's not quite suspicious, but you write THIS and your emails are perfect Pete-voice, and either I should be worried about you, or you're Pete Wentz.

I choose the later.

PS your best friend is hot.

you know somebody once thought i was ricky wilson?

he doesnt even play bass

[tricksterquinn]

*scoffs* And EVERYONE knows you're a bassist! How could someone make an error like that?

[provetheworst]

i could only dream of rocking the cowbell as hardcore as ricky wilson

[robjlea]

I really loved how you wrote Pete and Patrick's confusion over why he was even getting messages and what they were supposed to mean. The contrast of them at the show was so fitting. I really liked your Patrick in this.

[provetheworst]

i really like that you really liked it
