You Keep Playing Me Like A Fruit Machine.

[robanybody]

So I haven't written fuck-all in three months, right? And I had no intention of writing anything? And then this morning sucked and I was bored and I wrote 2,000+ words of Jamie Bell/Channing Tatum RPF because WHY NOT? I'd facepalm, but then I'd never stop smacking myself

Holy jesus, this is awesome. Between this and Those Photos of O'Lough, my night is MADE.

"Hello, Lulubell." Jenna's voice is bright and cheerful, and Jamie thinks that she is the only woman on the planet, besides his mother and sister, who can get away with any of the shit she pulls with him.

"Jenna," he says patiently, trying not to smile and knowing it's a lost cause, "I told you not to call me that."

"Hey, a girl's gotta have some fun. Besides," she adds mischievously, "you're banging my hubby. I get to call you whatever I want."

"Is that one of the ground rules?"

"It's the only rule, babycakes," she says, and Jamie concedes the entire discussion to her because trying to win an argument against Jenna is like trying to destroy a rainbow: it can't be done and you feel like a shit for even trying.

THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS. I have a deep and abiding love for stories where the wives/girlfriends are not only Awesome In Their Own Right, but also Not Bitchy. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I am incapable of making wives/girlfriends bitchy, mostly because I suck at angst. So I'm glad that she came across as awesome and fun. :D

And Jennaaaaaa omg! I adored her in Step Up and when she and Channing got married, I was so ridiculously happy for them both. They seem like the cutest, most relaxed couple.

You do make the most wonderful RPF. Also, I'm still feeling a little whiplash from the quick zags that this story presented me with. It was a fun premise but I have to applaud how you managed to make it a bit heartbreaking when Jamie asks Channing to sing for him.

Yay for bonus Jenna, because I'm fond of the Mrs. Tatum way before she became the wife -- I have much love for Step Up. Her cameo was both fun and sassy but it also makes this thing with Jamie a little bit more exciting, sadder and more surreal. I am hoping for more adventures where Jamie meets up with his married boyfriend and have lots of sex and kisses?

[robanybody]

Oh, I'm so glad the singing worked for you. Apparently, Jamie pines and it came out in the story. Who knew?

And I hope to write more of these two together! Maybe even with porn the next time. With bonus appearances by Jenna where she hangs around to affectionately mock her husband and his boyfriend, and then goes off to be amazing at teaching kids to dance and just generally being awesome at life. :D

[hypertwink]

And I will wait with bated breath. I totally love your Jenna. I also love that she both loves and mocks both her hubby & his boyfriend. Seriously, reading that again makes this so ba-na-nas but awesome. Still bananas.

[hypertwink]

Also, there needs to be a sequel where Channing & Jamie reenact Billy & Michael's scenes together...with tutu (bonus points if it's Jenna's!).

[dine]

oh, I just fell in love - you should totally write much much more about these guys (and Jenna!)

[robanybody]

I am definitely going to try to write more! Especially if they keep being absurdly in love in all their interviews.

I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED READING THIS YET I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW HOW EXCITED I AM THAT IT EXISTS

[stereowire]

FFFFFFF that was AWESOME dude. Like, I can't tell you how happy it made me. Channing is so perfectly adorable and balls-out weird in this. Singing SEXYBACK because the only other choice is Eminem, OH MY GOD HE SO WOULD. I laughed so hard at that I woke up the dog and now he's super offended but w/evs. All the ♥s!

[robanybody]

Ahahahaha! He would've been like, "Dude, I'd sing you 'Stan', but you know I can't hit the high notes like Dido can." And Jamie's response would be, "THAT IS NOT THE PART OF THE SONG THAT YOU SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT, YOU PRAT."

I'm glad you liked it enough to ruin your dog's sleep. <333
