The pictures of Gerard, Lindsey, Mikey and Alicia shopping at Comic Con make me smile. But the one below is my favourite by far.





You know they'll have thousands of pictures like that.

annemaris is awesome and made this gif of pouty Mikey in action. I have to keep tabbing back to have another look *___*

I've been trying to finish reading the wave one BBBs before wave two arrives, so some recs. This morning I read Blaming Frank, which is present era MCR GSF and I enjoyed it a lot. The sex is hot and some scenes excessively so, between the Mikey/Ray wall sex, with bonus carrying ♥ _ ♥ and an excellent Frank/Mikey rimming scene I was very happy.

Last weekend I read Draculoids Will Never Hurt You, the killjoys origin story, and it's incredible. The world building is amazing and I fell in love with all the characters, especially Show Pony.

Then during the week I read James Cameron Got It Wrong In which 2005 Frank ends up in killjoys time. Considering who wrote it I knew going in I'd like, but I really liked.

I still have so many more to read though. I need to read like the wind.

My wave 2 has been picked for art and mix. I still feel the need to apologise and say, it will clean up, promise.

Corey's room has been painted and he's got it looking very spiffy. Paint casualties included Milo's tail and the front of my dress, when I got white paint right down the front of it. Thankfully Vanish and a quick wash got it out. He needs a new carpet and curtains now, also a new wardrobe as moving the one he's got almost made it fall apart. He also broke up from school on Friday, so soon it'll be uniform buying time again. At least he's already got his jumper, so there is that.

Awesome photo!

I really liked Blaming Frank. I didn't have any expectations at all but it was such a fun story with so much hot sex. My favourite scenes were completely different from yours though ;-)

I've just finished Draculoids Will Never Hurt You and it really was fantastic. I love how central art and music was to the whole story and I also loved how everyone had their own motives for doing what they're doing. (I'm terribly worried about Gabe and Pete though!)

Wasn't James Cameron Got It Wrong fabulous?! She even made me cry! Bringing someone from our time forward into the Killjoys universe really brought home what terrible things had happened.

I've "only" got four stories left on my to-read list from wave one and I hope I'll manage to get around to reading all of them before the posting starts for wave two. Somehow I doubt it though. Particularly since I've claimed a story to make art for and that has to take precedence.

I saw that your story already had gotten claimed for both, go you!!

[turps]

It makes me laugh every time I look at it.

I couldn't remember any buzz about Blaming Frank at all, which is a shame as it's a solid story with really hot sex, and as your comment shows, varied enough that it has scenes for every taste.

They just replied to my comment and said there's a follow up in wave two which I'm very happy about.

I'm worried about them too! It was a story I was sad to finish. The world building was perfect, and I love how it was different to the majority of Killjoys stories, where it's not so much black and white ( or I suppose in killjoys terms, white or colours ) but shades of grey where people still work because they have to and in fact some seem content to live their lives that way.

I also liked how Frank was so dubious about the killjoys at first and what they wanted with him. And no wonder. I'd be freaked too. There's just so much I loved, and the concert was amazing, even with it ending badly.

James Cameron Got It Wrong was so good. I expected it to be hot but I loved the character interaction more than anything, and how it was shown so starkly how things had changed. I like to think Frank does change things somehow.

I've just tried to read the zombie story. After they killed Jamia off casually, then Bob, then had Frank shoot Mikey in the head I backed out.

It did. :)

What did you think of the wave 2s? Personally there's a load I want to read but I know some people aren't as happy.

[turlough]

I don't remember any buzz either. Sometimes I get a little irritated at how it only seems that it's the "big names" that get any buzz. If the writer isn't someone people recognises it doesn't seem to matter how much you rec it, no one will look at it any way. (I spotted the sequel in wave two last night.)

First class worldbuilding, totally! I already feel like I want to reread it soon because I know there was details and connections I didn't notice the first time.

I didn't even look at the zombie story. Zombies are icky and zombie apocalyses are definitely not my thing at all.

I'm positively suprised by wave two actually. It seemed more varied than wave two somehow. The Gerard pairings were definitely more varied. There are much fewer Panic stories though and that might be why some people aren't very happy.

[turps]

I'm with you there. It is sad that the lesser known people don't get their stories read, especially when you find gems that get unread because they don't get given that chance.

I would have explained it away by pairing but even allowing for the people who won't read due to the waycest, the story has a lot of all the other pairings.

I'd read so many side stories set in the universe, about Lindsey and her crew and Gabe working in the factory. Just everything.

Which just reminded me of something I liked in Foxxx's story, the scene with Brian. That was so sad.

Zombie stories can be written really well. One of my favourite BBBs remains Cold Pennies from a few years back, but that was subtle. This was just bad.

There is a good spread of pairings, and a lot of intriguing summaries. I'm looking forward to it going live.

[turlough]

The scene with Brian was heartbreaking! I'm so glad she included the hope of a future possible reconciliation.

Well, if you like the "rocks fall, everyone dies" sort of ending they might be, but I prefer my endings with at least the possibility of future happiness.

I was talking about the Ways at Comic Con with Akamine earlier tonight. Because a fannish friend of ours went there (like she does every year.) I didn't realize that there was a possibility she crossed paths with either/both the Ways at some point yesterday. :-/

Overall, I have to say that I'm more excited for Wave 2 fics. IIRC, there were only something like 20 fics that I wouldn't read even if someone paid me to do so (because I don't like the pairing or the genre/theme or am not interested in the band that the fic is about.)

Though curious enough to consider reading Blaming Frank (seeing how it's got a sequel), I have to pass. I can get around some squicks except for 5 hardcore ones. And, even the prettiness of the Way brothers can get me over the 'cest fence. Luce!FAIL. /o\

Can't wait to see your bbb fic, T. :)

[turps]

It must be amazing to just come across the Ways casually at some place like Comic Con. I've been reading reports of them going for the last three years and each time fans have said how happy they are to take pictures and talk as long as they have time to do so.

Wave 2 seems to have some amazing stories. I want to read them all! Well, truthfully not all but close to all. Which means I really need to finish reading the wave ones soon.

That's not a fail at all about not being able to read cest. It's very understandable and the only time I'd use a cest fail on anyone is if they told me I was sick for liking it. Which I'm sure you wouldn't.

I need to finish my bbb, I've given myself time off from it and have got lazy writing wise. At this rate I'll look up and the final draft will be due.

[glitteryv]

To Gerard and Mikeyway, Comic Con is deffo a must-see! I mean, how "coincidental" that it happened when they're on vacay. *g*

It's very understandable and the only time I'd use a cest fail on anyone is if they told me I was sick for liking it. Which I'm sure you wouldn't.

No, I wouldn't, Terri. To do so would be an incredibly tacky and obnoxious thing. Besides, in a world as vast as fandom, there's always something that someone else might not like or read. Having different likes and dislikes even within the same fandom is groovycakes with me.

In my case, it'd be mpreg. I simply adore it (not every fic out there, mind you. But it's deffo a bulletproof kink for me.) Meanwhile, other people are all dnw about it.

As far as the Way brothers are concerned, while I might not be interested on them as a sexual pairing, that doesn't mean that talking about/squeeing about/being totally fannish about their non-sexual bond isn't the cat pajamas in my corner of the world. ^_^

[sperrywink]

Ahahaha, that is the best picture. And I think it will be perfect for MWD since it is a ninja not a fan photo. Or something like that.

Ooohh, with the gif, I like the way his hair falls over his face.

Go Corey! He'll have a smashing room in no time.

[xoxxblitz7.livejournal.com]

That gif *____________* He really is so sexy.

Mine hasn't been claimed for anything yet, starting to get a little worried! :(

[annemaris.livejournal.com]

Mine hasn't been claimed either, let's worry together!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

He is the sexiest, and needs to pout like that always.

There's still so many stories left to be claimed, and the post hasn't been up a day yet. I know it's easy to say don't worry, but, don't worry. I'm sure you'll get claimed soon ♥

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You two worry and I'll keep reminding you it's early yet, and will do so until I get annoying.

You'll both be claimed and you'll get awesome mixes and art. I'm sure of that.

♥ to you both.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

When I saw it last night I had to sit and gaze with heart eyes for the longest time. I like to think Gerard has a scrap book full of pictures of Mikey, the spaces in-between each photo filled with sketches. And you know they have a few My Space style pictures of them both in the same shot. Probably showing a close up of Mikey's nose and the corner of Gerard's smile *g*

Yes! He is the hottest with the prettiest hair.

His room looks really good. Though I laughed at his row of shoes. They take up nearly half a wall.

[annemaris.livejournal.com]

Aww, thanks bb. I just have to stop refreshing the post, lol. Oh, btw, I made a picspam (http://annemaris.livejournal.com/307008.html) of the Making Of of I'm Not Okay, in case you're interested. Um.

[squashbee.livejournal.com]

I don't think I've read any of the wave one BBB's besides yours. :( I tell myself I'm saving it all for rainy days to come; However, most likely I'll read them between waiting for classes.

I'm glad to hear your wave two got picked! I'm excited to see the art for it. \o/ (Did you contact your artist/mixer? ;)

[turps33.livejournal.com]

BBB season is awesome, but the stories take some reading. I need to learn to read faster, though somehow I don't think that's going to happen.

Ahahahaha. No, I'm flying blind this time. My poor artist though. I know I added more to the draft you saw but at least it was mostly complete, the one this time is a mess.

[anoneknewmoose.livejournal.com]

Thank you for that gif, guhhhh. *____________*

[nikibee.livejournal.com]

OK, I've been a fan of MCR and Mikey Way for a while now, and while I've always thought that he is good looking I've never actually stopped and thought DAYUM that boy is HOT.

Thanks to that gif, I just did.

God, Mikey Way, be more aloof rockstar-ish, I dare you.

[annemaris.livejournal.com]

!!! This pleases me greatly. \o/

[slashxmistress.livejournal.com]

Seconding this as a mixer >:D. Especially if your story is a bit down on the list -we tend to chose the first one we come to that catches our eye - and you have to be quick before someone else takes the one you're interested in - so it's kinda grab and go!
I'm a pretty quick mixer tho and I always go back and pick a second and even a third, most of us do so no worries! We'll get to you ♥

[slashxmistress.livejournal.com]

Oh man there are still a few wave one's I haven't read either /o\ and wave two looks so goooood! (One reason I love being a mixer- I get to read a couple of them early! )
Mikey and Gee geeking out will never not be squee worthy. I saw dancinbutterfly's pic with Grant Morrison and LynZ too and I am SO jealous of anyone who went this time around O.O

That gif is amazing you , just ...cannot look away ♥

[x_dark_siren_x]

I've been working so much this month I haven't even read any Wave One BBBs. :( And I'm so far behind on Comic Con shenanigans. Damn you, work! Thank God you will be over on Thursday.

In conclusion: Miiiiikey. ♥_____♥

[nikibee.livejournal.com]

Your gif pleases me greatly!!

[rubytuesday5681]

Blaming Frank and James Cameron Got It Wrong were definitely two of my favorite BBBs. I just adored them both.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Yes!

Blaming Frank had such filthy sex, and it was amazing!

And ladyfoxxx brings it every time.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Damn work indeed! *shakes fist*

But soon it'll be over and you can read all the fic and reports in the world!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I have so many left to read it's ridiculous, and multiple non-bbb stories too. While I do enjoy loving so many pairings and bands it does mean the fic tends to pile up sometimes. Not that I'm complaining!

That picture is epic!

And yeah, the gif is amazing too. The boy knows how to move.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

The man has become smokin' lately. Combine that with his confidence on stage now and you've got one amazing package.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!
