white christmas is on!

I adore White Christmas. It's my very favorite Christmas movie :)

I was sick at home for Thanksgiving. I couldn't stop coughing, so I missed turkey dinner. Sadmaking.

So whatever, here's around 1800 words of a larger fic that may or may not ever be finished:

Patrick clutches his satchel to his chest as the train rocks to a stop. )

crack, harvey girls au, bandslash

You put Gerard and Mikey in drag, and it appears to be justified by the plot! That is so awesome. I'm intrigued by the cryptic conversation, too, but seriously. CORSETS FTW. :D

You've somehow made me very fond of Ashlee. How did that happen? She's kind of great, though.

Brendon's reaction to Ryan cracked me up, and I love that you made Ryan a cardsharp. I'm really looking forward to this fic now, and not just because there are good odds of Spencer Smith in a low-slung gunbelt... ;)

*g* It's TOTALLY justified by plot. Kind of :) They make such pretty but awkward girls!

Honestly, you could get away with even the tiniest justification. When you're starting with an idea from the musical comedy genre, it's pretty easy to get away with even really insane things. :) Not that anyone would mind completely unjustified corsets, in this of all fandoms.

I know, right? Nnrgh. Although I can't seem to choose between picturing girly!young!Spencer or the more recent scruffy!Spencer in a gunbelt. They both have their selling points. ;)

they do, oh man, which one? SO HARD TO DECIDE! I think I might go for the scruffy broad shouldered Spencer, just because Brendon would be all over that. In my head.

Mmm, yeah. All scruffy and wearing work-worn clothes and boots. I would go for that, too, if I were Brendon. :)

On the other hand, think how pretty young Spencer would look in an outfit something like this. (That character also comes with a spring-loaded forearm holster, which, HOT.) And some of those old-fashioned arm garters, like he's wearing in the "But It's Better If You Do" video. YUM.

I can't decide. This is just too hard. Clearly, cloning and/or time travel is in order. Maybe an evil twin...

EVIL TWIN! BRENDON TOTALLY HAS NO IDEA WHAT'S GOING ON, BUT HE LIKES IT.

HAHA, YOU BET YOUR ASS HE DOES.

The real question is, does Spencer's evil twin have the requisite goatee? And wow, isn't that a horrifying mental image that proves the beard is not as bad as it could be...

*dies laughing* okay, so there totally has to be fic where Pete decides all of Panic! is their evil twins because of the beards. They're holding real!Panic! hostage at the cabin! It'll be hilarious.

*dies* LOL, PETE WOULD TOTALLY. This is why the album took so long, you know. He makes Patrick to watch that old Star Trek episode with evil Spock, and some telenovelas, and maybe calls Gerard for research (because who else but a comic book fan would know so much about evil doubles?) :D And then he starts collecting "evidence"--like, Jon wearing actual close-toed shoes one day, and Brendon acting like a mature adult. And now I have a mental image of Patrick in a Sherlock Holmes hat, because Pete decides outfits were necessary to be Real Detectives. There are notebooks and binoculars and maybe even a noir-style voiceover. (...it is possible I've seen Humphrey Bogart detective movies?) And then he gets distracted by imagining real!Panic! in the cabin, all tied up and huddled together for warmth, and tangenting onto doppelganger sex and wondering where he could find a promiscuous double of Patrick... ;)

OUTFITS! Oh my god, that's hilarious and I can so picture it. Patrick all long-suffering but going through with it because it's easier than trying to argue Pete out of it - plus, he's sort of curious about how far Pete'll take this 'evil twins' thing.

*g* Poor Patrick. At least he gets a new hat out of the ordeal. :) I'm guessing that, for the sake of comedy, it would have to go at least until Pete confronts Panic! with his "evidence." And then they're faced with a dilemma--string Pete along to mess with his mind, or try to figure out a way to prove they're not their own evil twins. Personally, I don't know how this could be done (unless, like me, you actually have a twin, and can claim that an evil triplet is just statistically impossible ;D), so I'm voting for Brendon to bust out that Disney Villain Laugh he's been practicing. (You know he has been. In front of the mirror, even.) :D

Hee. Brendon would totally string him along. Spencer, too, but Ryan would just give him a dead carp stare and be like, really? and Jon would just SMILE. All the time. He would smile so much that Patrick starts thinking maybe Pete was right, because he feels like Jon's smile maybe wants to jump off Jon's face and eat his brain. Maybe. It could be that all the late-night commiserating phone calls from Gerard are getting to him.
