NINJA | PG-13 | ~32,000
Kevin Jonas/Mike Carden (also: Kevin/Zac Efron, Brendon/Spencer, Bill/Miranda, Pete/Ashlee, Pete/Patrick)

There are grooves in Kevin’s fingers from where he’s gripping his bass, soft, but calloused underbellies digging into the strings. It’s enough pain to ground him; he releases the strings backwards, the positioning a direct reverse of the beginning of In Front And Heavy. This is it. There’s no going back, even if one of the kids singing along in twenty minutes recognizes the curve of Miranda’s mouth, the timbre of Brendon’s voice, the strawberry blonde curl of Patrick’s hair under his knit cap; Bill’s splayed, spidery legs, Kevin’s wrists, fingers – the white band of skin that isn’t hidden by a thin band of silver.

*We are your losers, your loud weirdoes, your science stars, your shy, retiring band geeks*, Kevin thinks, and sets off for the stage.

A/N: This is it. The completely pointless, self-indulgent high school AU about a secret band playing secret music and writing a secret blog. I kind of hope you enjoy it. Massive thanks to insunshine for the excellent beta-work, and also to starflowers, who cheered me on through this entire thing. This actually had a different title, but then I thought, fuck it, because it's always been NINJA in my head. (ps – more notes at the end about who’s who in some of the blogged about bands, if you’re curious)

Saponification | PG-13 | multiple pairings | 19,000+
Sequel to Supersaturation, Solvation, Enthalpy, Entropy, Sublimation, Allotropy and Adsorption.

“I don’t usually follow gossip,” Brendon says, which is a blatant, bald lie, “but word is Crawford’s got an imaginary friend.”

A/N: For those of you who skipped Adsorption because of the JoBros, I strongly urge you to reconsider (Carden is awesome!) – I’m gonna say you probably need to have read ALL stories that have come before, and I’m gonna say that because I basically throw every character ever at you in this one. Except for, I’m sad to say, most of Panic. Fear not, they shall be the focus of the very next installment! Saying that, Saponification (title tongue-in-cheek) is about a slight mystery surrounding Joe, Gerard, Johnson and Ian. To make things slightly less confusing, have a Supersaturation Character Cheat Sheet! There are Nickelodeon and Disney people now! I blame Bonus.
Much awesome thanks to insunshine for the kick-ass beta-job. I totally don’t have favorites, but this is for druidspell (my best ‘verse supporter), nunshavingfun (I fixed Joe for you!!!), and starflowers (whose mere existence makes me smile).

Build Your House, Call Me Home | PG | 10,000+
William’s House of Orphans AU
William/Gabe, others implied

William is not entirely certain how this happened, how he became a veritable magnet for downtrodden orphans, but he’s going to blame Jon.

Warning: this is not even remotely historically, geographically, or culturally accurate in any way.
A/N: I don’t know if this qualifies as actual fic? I’m sorry. I’m just—really, really sorry. Title comes from Sara by Fleetwood Mac.

The Perfect Man | PG-13 | 14,000+
Bob/Joe, Brendon/Spencer
(download the soundtrack)

Joe refuses to be charmed. Joe’s neighbor is some sort of drunkard or druggie, okay, and he smells like wood varnish and burnt hair and Joe really, really hopes he doesn’t have an explosive meth lab set up in his garage.

Finally! The Joe fic is done!! Okay, okay, so notes: loosely based on the book Mr. Perfect, by Linda Howard. As usual, massive thanks go to insunshine – who is such a darling - for the awesome beta. Basically, this is for nunshavingfun, because her love of Joe/Bob rivals mine. And for the record, Joe is one tough mofo to write. I have a feeling I’m wildly off base with him here, but I had fun anyway. Title is extremely lame, even for me. Sorry.
By the by, this was technically written for harlequin_bands. I don't know if it actually qualifies anymore.

All In The Way That You Trip | R | 22,000+
Brendon/Spencer | Harlequin AU

“I’m going to ask you one more time,” he says, and he looks – Brendon shudders – he looks like he *wants* Brendon to stay quiet, like he’s just itching to take Brendon apart and maybe put him back together wrong. “Where is Ryan?”

A/N: Okay, so this is the Harlequin Fic of Horrible Doom I’ve been teasing you with for so long, written for harlequin_bands. It’s highly ridiculous, implausible, inaccurate, dumb, ill-conceived, poorly plotted, nonsensical, etc. Mainly it’s just Spencer hauling Brendon around a lot, which may or may not be your cup of tea. I’m still kind of totally embarrassed I actually wrote this *hands*. Many, huge thanks go to insunshine for beta’ing this and for being extremely supportive and lovely and awesome, as usual! Title comes from a song by The Prix. I'm gonna go hide out and be ashamed all by my lonesome now *slinks off*

Instructor Bob’s Annual Summer Campout | ~5,000 | PG-13
William/Siska | Saddle Club AU | Sequel to Featuring Murray… and The Monroeville Farms Starlight Ride.

It’s tragic, really, how long William had avoided Monroeville Farms.

A/N: More boys and horses! This is silly and schmoopy. Enjoy.

Found Days | PG-13 | 13,000+
Brendon/Jon | band AU
download the soundtrack

Brendon has a habit of handling Pete the same way he handles his twelve-year-old daughter.

A/N: So it seems like each time I finish an AU I say that it’s my favorite world to play in, but seriously, this is totally my favorite world to play in for reals. It’s a future fic in a world where all the bands are the same except Panic, and Brendon and Jon both have kids. I kind of love it a lot. I even made art! Massive thank yous to insunshine, for beta’ing this even though she didn’t feel well *hugs* This is not actually kid fic. It’s about Beach Dog.

( Found Days )

Don’t Say I Didn’t Warn You | PG-13 | ~7000
Brendon/Spencer, Jon Walker’s beard, The Cab, Little Adam

Brendon likes leaning on tall things, like lampposts and Gabe Saporta. Which is probably why he wakes up naked, duct taped to a Big Wheel.

A/N: Remember how I said, when I started The Cab As Brendon’s Sidekicks snippets, that this was impossibly dumb and I couldn’t possibly write any more of it, because it was just—irredeemably stupid? Yeah, it’s still that dumb. Sorry. Many thanks to everyone who participated in the epic Drunk Naked Guy conversation, which was inspiring in a whole lot of ways. Rutherford B. Hayes was our 19th US president. If you don’t know who ZZ Top is, I’ll pray for your soul. Unbeta’d, so please let me know if you spot any horrible mistakes!

( Don’t Say I Didn’t Warn You )

So, like, I wrote you unicorn!Jon Walker fic.

Just throwing it out there. You know. Because I'm awesome and love you.

So how's about someone write me some Singer fic? Singer/Cash, Singer/Johnson (!!!), Singer/Ian (O_o), there is a serious lack of Singer fic, people! I would like this rectified asap, preferably in the form of high school AUs.

We Would Bring It On And On | @27,000 | PG-13
Spencer/Brendon (minor Spencer/Jon, Spencer/OFC, Colligan/OFC, Pete/Ashlee, Pete/Patrick, Frank/Jamia, Mikey/Alicia, Ryan/Greta, Bill/Greta, Gabe/VickyT, Gabe/Bill)
download the soundtrack

Every day he texts Frank that he’s dying a slow, painful death, and Frank always ignores him and sends him pics of Gerard’s nostrils or dog shit or something. Frank’s an asshole. He has no idea why they’re friends, and Spencer misses him so much sometimes he feels like punching something that’ll punch back.

WARNING FOR: gratuitous cursing, POINTLESS RAMBLING, Original Female Character of Doom, Gabe Saporta, and everyone is practically the same age here, okay, because I like it that way. The high school is made up and this is completely unrealistic!

VERY IMPORTANT A/N: This is my attempt at taking a badfic premise – Spencer moves away! Spencer comes back with a Jersey EDGE (kind of) - and trying to make it as entertaining as possible. Many, many thanks to ink_on_the_page for the awesome beta, for the encouragement and for thinking this is actually funny! Title comes from the Mates of State song Goods.

When it lasted all day, we would blast it all day
We would bring it on and on

It's all in your head
