Hello! I am late, and I am also
lackofsound, your Saturday Night Specialist for the month of July! :D
So, we all remember the Really Really Ridiculously Good Looking tour that ended not too long ago, right? And we all know the bands that were on it: Cobra Starship, The Cab, We The Kings, and Metro Station.
I'm here to inform all of you of the love that these bands have between two of their members. And to campaign for more fic about them.
Beginning with Metro Station, namely, Trace and Mason.
Let's start where they did, at the beginning.
Quick story: Trace is Miley Cyrus' half brother. So anyway, he was hanging out, doing what he does, moaning about the lack of people to start a band with.
Ok, you know what. The band says it better than I ever could.
From their website. Trace and Mason met in Hollywood in early 2006 on what can only be deemed a “blind rock date” set up by their mothers.' A blind rock date, aka, the set of Hannah Montana. (Mason's brother, Mitchel, is also on the show.) But still. They called it a date.
Then, When they started writing together, however, something clicked. “We put a song down and connected on a different level,” recalls Trace. Or, as they said on their
myspace, they had "musical chemistry".
The band ships Trace/Mason too.
Now you know the backstory, let's get introduced to the stars.
Beginning with Trace.
This is Trace. Yeah.
He's part of this family.
Billy Ray Cyrus is his stepdad, making Miley is half sister.
There's not a lot of family resemblance.
Trace is ridiculously tall.
And Mason is short!
So they balance each other out.
Mason owns some cool shoes.
I suppose he does other things, like:
play guitar,
act like a puppy,
and be dorky. But they were some awesome shoes.
Mason also wears his brothers shirt.
.
There's no accounting for taste. Which explains this whole post.
They're on a bed. I don;t know what else you need.
Mason is willing to drape himself over Trace.
You know you want to write about how Trace debauched Mason. Mason did use to be a gospel singer.
Or how
California is about them running away to get married.
Because I know I always hang around and watch my male friends get make up put on them.
Trace is playing to Mason. I've shipped others for less.
This is what they would look like if they read what you wrote. Surprised, because someone likes them enough to go to such lengths. YOU COULD MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE THAT.
(They both play guitar, and they both sing, did I mention that?) Anyway, this photo is only here because it sets the scene for the next one.
Let's all do what I do, and pretend that Trace is taking the picture. (And he could be! You don't know any different!)
Also, Trace taught him to do that.
Trace is singing to him. Which may be slightly hotter than playing to him.
And then he;s Pete and goes for resting on Mason's shoulder. Except it's too far down.
And then there's this.
WHich clearly screams that they;re in love and you should all write about them.
Also, video evidence.
Ok, not really. But these videos are cool regardless.
Metro Station in NY - Cribs style. It is tiny. ALso a mess.
Behind The Scenes. Mason serenades the band to sleep.
A Brief Conversation. Trace and Mason are terrible actors.
And then this.
Friday I;m In Love. See? Mason ships Trace/Mason.
You should write about it.
Like these wonderful people have!
And by "these wonderful people", I mean this wonderful person.
alex_boylove has written the three following fics. The only ones I could fun featuring these two.
pretty.odd. orgy fic. Ok, so it;s not a fic per se, but its words and they're awesome so it counts.
shake shake shake shake shake shake it: y or n. It's both Trace/Mason and Trace/HannaBeth and Trace/Mason/HannaBeth, and it's hot and sweet and brilliantly written. Also it has Gabe.
best friends make the best lovers!. Go and read. It's sweet and cute and adorable and awesome. And Im sure you'll come up with more adjectives for it once you;ve read it.
In conclusion:
Trace and Mason want YOU to write more fic about them, because Trace says, "I’m only going to make music with Mason from here on out. That’s what I want to do."
Hope that was as fun for me as it was for you!
