WILLIAM/BRENDON D/S IS MY BIGGEST WEAKNESS, OH MY GOD. Just. Vampires! Vampires and everything that goes along with them!
Ahahaha I forgot you're not actually in bandom. Brendon's the lead singer of Panic! at the Disco. He showed up (along with William Beckett) in the Fall Out Boy video for A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More "Touch Me," which is one of the most influential videos in fandom because OMG CANON VAMPIRE 'VERSE OMG OMG, basically. He shows up most prominently around the five minute mark, mesmerizing chicks and being a general hotass. I LIKE MY FANDOM, CAN YOU TELL \o/
(YEAH I FIGURED YOU JUST DIDN'T ASK SO I DIDN'T WANT TO EXPLAIN SOMETHING YOU ALREADY KNEW, SORRY. He's the lead singer of The Academy Is..., which is on the same label as FOB and Panic. He's the leader of the Dandies, the dapper-looking vampire types that show up in that video. The one who drinks tea all the time and is generally gorgeous. THE WHOLE LABEL IS PRETTY MUCH A GIANT INCEST PIT THAT SHOWS UP IN EACH OTHER'S VIDEOS.)
Basically vampires are great and YEAH, EVERYONE REMEMBERS PANIC, THEY'RE KIND OF HOW I GOT INTO FANDOM. Okay that's a lie, mostly it was 1st_eggokage being all "MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE PORN? :D?" and me being like "no :|" and then she was all "LOOK WILLIAM BECKETT AND GABE SAPORTAEXIST" and I was like "...:o" and then I found out Panic had a fandom too and yeah, my life kind of got better/worse from there.
THE FUN THING ABOUT BANDOM IS THAT THE MUSIC IS ACTUALLY GOOD. I came into thinking "Yeah I like Panic and all but fuck MCR and FOB :|" and then I actually downloaded their albums and was like :OOOOOO. Folie A Deux is still on my top ten list of all time, Patrick Stump and Pete Wentz are amazing human beings. And music in general is kind of MY LIFE so that's pretty much key to keeping me here. And everyone is amazing and even if sometimes they are douchebags most of them are charming douchebags. It is the best incest pit ever.
IT'S OKAY EVERYONE CALLS HER EGGO ANYWAY. She is my braintwin and best friend and possibly-future-roommate-in-an-imaginary-apartment-in-LA and is the enabler for a lot of things that I do. She is great and everyone should love her.
Yeah Gabe and William are kind of really, really, really, REALLYREALLY IN LOVE AND MY FAVORITES. There is not enough fic of them in the world.
...Which may be in part due to the fact that I'm sitting here writing vampire porno that's not of them. Hm.
The thing about Fall Out Boy is that I hated them when they were popular, half because...they were popular (lol tiny elitist past-self I hate you) and half because Sugar We're Going Down is not a good song. Nobody told me that Folie A Deux existed. It's their last album they made before they broke up, and holyshit is it great. Most of Infinity On High (the one that had Thnks Fr Th Mmrs on it) is amazing too. They just really improved after Cork Tree, though I know some people will disagree with me.
Mychem took me a lot longer to get used to because HARDCORE GUITARS, I AM NOT USED TO THESE HARDCORE GUITARS I AM JUST COMING OUT OF A SHOWTUNES PHASE, but Black Parade is just so theatrical and ridiculous and god I could just listen to Mama all day. I'm still not big on their past albums (TO THE DISMAY OF MOST OF FANDOM) but oh my god Danger Daaaaaays. I'm so glad I was in fandom when Danger Days started exploding, it would be so confusing to try to explain to a newcomer. Which is...what I'm essentially trying to do right now, isn't it
( ... )
I AM JUST LINKSPAMMING YOU WITH EVERYTHING TODAY. But yeah oh my god Headfirst Slide is like, the greatest thing in the world. The whole ALBUM is the greatest thing in the world, all the orchestration and Pete's lyrics and PATRICK'S VOICE UNF UNF UNF I COULD LISTEN TO THAT MAN SING ALL DAY.
Mychem is made of ALL OF THE THEATRICS, I love them so much. It's like, okay, have this album full of okay songs, also we're going to be COMPLETELY INSANE and wear black suits on Warped Tour. Then we're going to go MASQUERADING AS THE MARCHING BAND OF THE DAMNED. AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO GO LARPING IN THE DESERT WITH GRANT MORRISON. I think the more ridiculous they get, the better their music gets. Because seriously. Seriously.SERIOUSLY. This albuuuuum
( ... )
Planetaryyyyy oh my god I just listen to Planetary ALL THE TIME, half because it takes exactly one playthrough while waking to get to my morning class, half because IT'S SO AMAZING.
OH GOD THE CONCERT VERSION IS MY FAVORITE. Hearn is my favorite Sweeney, Patti is my second favorite Lovett (next to Angela Lansbury, eeee), and NPH IS MY FAVORITE EVERYTHING EVER. SO GREAT. I WANT THE DVD.
I can bullshit essays pretty quickly (my sentences are LONG AS FUCK, IN CASE YOU DIDN'T NOTICE FROM MY FIC), I'm just so lazy and the internet exists. How can I compete with the internet?
(< kind of bracket goes here)a href ="URL GOES HERE"(> kind of bracket goes here) TEXT GOES HERE WHEEEE (backslash a in brackets)
Yeah, classes are technically over, but I'm still going to need it since my Latin class over January is going to be in the same building. Going home on Tuesday, wheeeee.
WHY THANK YOU, YOU HAVE EXCELLENT TASTE AS WELL.
High school made me ridiculously good at bullshitting, mostly because the AP English class I took was bullshit. And doing essays in German isn't as hard because as long as you're using proper grammar and have a variety of vocabulary, it's not like you have to actually dig deep into the topic at hand. MORE TIME TO STUMBLE/CHECK TWITTER/BROWSE YOUTUBE/PLAY FLASH GAMES. My life.
I WILL LISTEN TO IT LATER, I got a Skype call the second you commented, ahahaha. I love musicians having fun though, omg you have no idea. MUSIC IS FUN. EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE FUN AND PLAY MUSIC. OR DANCE TO MUSIC. MUSICKING!
Yeah, AP Lang was a lot more intense, because the teacher was INSANE, but I definitely learned a lot. AP Lit was like...idk. The teacher was awful and we spent too much time on Crime and Punishment and half the class hated me (uuuugh we don't talk about the time I got glared at by EVERYONE for implying that open marriages are actually an okay idea) so yeah, not fun.
I kind of sort of want to major in German, but I love ALL OF THE LANGUAGES so I'm taking intensive Latin over winter term and want to take intro Japanese next year. Because I am a masochist, apparently.
TWITTER IS GREAT AND EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE ONE. It's how I keep up with my bands. And it's kind of how we have half the Killjoys canon, Mychem had a bunch of fake character Twitters because they're RIDICULOUS.

The Music Man is one of my favorite older plays, it's just so cute and clever and hilarious spoken word nonsense never gets old. And I mean, 76 Trombones. Classic.
