Drink Me (Brendon/Ryan)

[cest_what]

At last I get to post this. I am so ridiculously in love with this 'verse.

Bandom (Panic at the Disco) | Brendon/Ryan | 10,000 words | PG

Summary: Steampunk AU. The worst thing was that Ryan, the boy with the newsboy cap and the shy smile, didn't know about the love potion.

I wasn't joking about being in love with this 'verse. Trust me, there's going to be a Jon/Spencer sequel :p

I'm so glad you liked it!

[xbeax]

YAY!! :D

I'm looking forward to reading it~! :D

This was fantastic. To be honest, steampunk kind of scares me but this was so perfect. I just want to draw hearts around it. ♥

[cest_what]

... possibly I haven't read the scary steampunk, because for me it's just MAGIC PLUS CLUNKY MACHINES THAT BELCH SMOKE, and nothing makes me smile harder :-) I'm so glad you liked this!

[inawonderland]

No, like what you've described sounds awesome. What I'm more scared of is the steampunk scene I guess? Weird stuff sometimes. This was soo lovely though. (I'm re-reading :D )

[cest_what]

Yay :D

(I think the steampunk scene maybe gets mixed up with the cyberpunk scene at times? And that stuff's just depressing...)

Oh, I loved this! I loved that twist on the traditional love potion, and I love that Brendon dosed himself, and I especially loved this moment:

Vicky-T pulled both her knees up on the counter, resting her chin on them. She raised her eyebrows. "I guess you're going to be in love with him sometime, Bden," she said, a teasing curl in her voice.

which I keep replaying in my head. Yay! I'm glad I got to read it, thank you.

[cest_what]

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked the twist. It's difficult finding a way for a love potion premise to actually finish on a sweet and charming note and be at all believable, so I'm glad this worked :-)

[cest_what]

I'm so glad the style worked! That's always a gamble, when you're trying to write any kind of out-of-time AU. Thank you and I'm glad you liked ♥

*FLAIL*!!!!!!

Not only did you lure me into bandom and made me a complete fanfic junkie, now you've managed to somehow cut my age in half as well. :-D

Magical bandom! Vicky-t in a shop with magical creatures! Gabe Saporta the potions master!

Absolutely genious. I cannot flail enough.
Thank you so much for this.

I turned into a fourteen year old halfway into my first bandom fic, I'm pretty sure :-) I'm so glad you liked this!
