ESSAY IS FINISHED!!!

[nova33]

Naturally, this requires me to tell all of you about it! And, okay, it's not totally done,  but the rough draft is. So I'm dancing around the kitchen to Metro Station and making myself another mug pot of tea. BECAUSE I KNOW HOW TO PARTY, OKAY?

Ahem. Anyway. How do you guys feel about Gerard/Pete fics, just generally? Does it work for you? If so, why

I'm down with Gerard/Pete! If you felt the need to write Gerard/Patrick, I would also be down with that. Pete/Gerard/Patrick works for me too.

[nova33]

I don't know if I could write Gerard/Patrick, to be honest. I am only attempting Gerard/Pete for secrethitmen. But if I ever decide to write threesome fic, I'll tell you.

[jk_rockin]

Yesssssssss. Also, tell me why you could not write Gerard/Patrick! (this isn't indignant! this is just curious.)

[nova33]

I don't know, I kinda struggle with writing Gerard in the first place, because I find it hard to get inside his head. (I find it a little easier to get inside Pete's; not sure what that says about me.) But I have no idea about Patrick. And while I like Gerard/Patrick fics, I wouldn't be totally sure how to work the dynamics.

(Just as a side note - the first fic I read that wasn't Pete/Patrick was Pete/Gerard/Patrick, or something close to it.)

[unphoenix]

Hmm. I have some...difficulty...in accepting Pete/Gerard, because I tinhat for Pete/Mikey so hard. That said, I would read it if you wrote it, especially since lately I've been a little bit more open to the idea after thinking about the Peter Pan references Gerard's got in Headfirst For Halos, and Pete's Peter Pan obsession.

So, in conclusion, it might work for me.^^

[nova33]

Hey - I hadn't thought of that before. That's kinda awesome.

See, I've never really understood the appeal of Pete/Mikey. This seems somewhat strange because it's a pretty popular pairing, but, I dunno, just never clicked for me.

But I'm glad you'd be willing to give it a try! (If it ever gets finished, that is.)

[unphoenix]

I was first attracted to the Pete/Mikey ship because it's got so many roots in canon. And it's always so gorgeously sad.

[nova33]

No, that makes sense. And I understand the sadness of it as well, I just...I don't know. It never worked for me, I guess. Don't know why, though.

I'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER IF YOU WRITE GERARD/PETE FOR ME. No, seriously, they're my interband OTP of fucked-up psyches. I love love love how they're both so fucked up on so many levels and it'd be brilliant to throw them together to explore chemical reaction. Plus most people think it's Pete&Mikey, so I want to see how Pete&Gerard would work over that. It's interesting and OMG MY OTP I CANNOT BE COHERENT.

[nova33]

Oh good! Then you'll love them enough to like even really bad fic? Yes?

No, discuss with me further what it is you love about their supposed relationship and dynamic. Because I need to get my thoughts straight, and if they're your OTP, I'm sure you have some strong opinions on the matter.

\o/ Yay for essay finishing! *hugs* Homesickness sucks, lovie. Hope you feel a little less blue soon. *cuddles*

[nova33]

Thank you! *cuddles back* It should go away soon - the bouts never last too long.

[andcrashrewind]

Gerard/Pete is totally good by me.
...As long as no one feels the need to redub it Gerete or Petard or something.

And I second astridthemighty on the Pete/Gerard/Patrick threesome. *noms*

YAY FOR THE ESSAY-FINISHING. <3

[nova33]

No, wait - I can't call it Gerete? But it's so catchy!

Okay, okay, you second the threesome idea - let's not get ahead of ourselves, or anything.

\o/ (Thank you!)

[andcrashrewind]

IT IS NOT CATCHY. IT IS ALL SORTS OF EWWW.

[nova33]

Wentay! Wayentz! (Wantz? lol.)
