Shameless indulgence ftw!

Okay, so I've had sort of a crappy last 24 hours and I desperately need something to make me LOL/smile/*heartclutch*/scrinchy face. In the interest of exploiting what this fandom does best (i.e. AUs!) and taking the popularity of wolfshirts into consideration, I bring you

A Whole New World: A Bandom AU Meme!

Think of this as wolfshirts in meme form! Comment with any ( Read more... )

Okay, so there's this something. Maybe it's like the Blue Meanies in Yellow Submarine, or maybe it's more like the Nothing in The Neverending Story. But either way, it's the enemy of happiness and color and creativity and music, and it's turning the world into a gray, silent, unhappy place.

Cue bandom having to literally save the world through their music. It's just like Yellow Submarine in this respect--you play or sing loud enough and joyfully enough at the whatever-it-is, and it's forced into retreat.

Fall Out Boy are the ones who figure it out, because Yellow Submarine is one of Joe's favorite movies to watch while he's high and Pete figures that hey, the Beatle Strategy couldn't hurt to try, right? Once they've realized that it works, they spread the word to the other bands.

MCR totally picks up the idea and runs with it and spearheads the cause, because this is what Gerard Way's been prepping for his whole life, he just didn't know it yet. They break out the Black Parade uniforms and lament the fact that they burned the float.

Cobra Starship is briefly conflcted, because it's not supposed to be their mission to save the world, but hey, if the world is ending, they're throwing the party, which naturally means music and dancing, so six of one, half-dozen of the other.

...And that's I'll I've got for now because I have to not be late for work. *scampers*

ETA: ...And this is not really in fic form, is it. >.> I'll play around with it at work, see what I come up with.

OMFG. I keep wanting more fic where MCR ACTUALLY SAVES LIVES WITH THEIR MUSIC, and this would be the perfect AU. Ever.
And Cobra! They're conflicted! Saving the world's not really their thing, but if the world ends they'd be singing and dancing anyway!

Of course, I say 'conflicted', but it would probably go more like:

Gabe: You want us to help save the world? I don't know, man, that's not really--

Pete: You can do it by throwing a dance party. And I don't know if he's on board yet or what, but I emailed Justin Timberlake.

Gabe: .......Okay!
