[spacerockwriting]

Thank you @spacerockwriting for the @galladrabbles prompt this week.

Kinda late this week, but I don't want to miss continuing my series.

The Apocalypse pt. 30

"Have you ever wondered if you could tame them?" Ian asked while eating his beans.

"Huh?"

"You’ve seen The Walking Dead, right? One of them had them on a chain."

"They’re not pets you can take for a walk, Gallagher."

"Could be useful. We should catch one. Tonight."

Mickey desperately needed to find those damn pills. He'd not be late.

"No way I’m spending my first night in a real bed after days because you wanna chase zombies," he said, hoping Ian would take the bait.

"How do you want to spend the night then?"

"Moaning." Mickey smirked.

Southside Social Media Celeb AU

The TikTok halloween video has 14.4 million views, 2.4 million likes, 13.6 thousand comments, and 131.8 thousand bookmarks.

It's posted by Debbie, one of the three Gallagher siblings that have risen to internet stardom thanks to one viral video around the pandemic era.

They owe their fame to a stupid one-minute video of the two eldest Gallagher brothers patiently explaining to their naive younger brother about STDs, with Debbie (@debz_thegallagher) recording and laughing her ass off behind the camera.

(The caption of that fateful video reads:

"Lip & lan: we're gonna hold ur hand as we tell u this. Carl: 👁️ 👄 👁️”

And that video goes a little something like this:

A shaky start where Debbie is settling her phone on a surface somewhere so it captures her three brothers in the shot, and then —

"Waitwaitwait, Carl. Say that again, but slower," Debbie cackles behind the camera.

A doe-eyed teen boy with a devastatingly handsome face and wavy dark hair frowns at the camera briefly. This is Carl Gallagher, who would soon rise to his own fame on TikTok (mostly posting dance covers or TikTok trends), but never quite managing to shuck off the nickname the internet has christened him with: Naive STD Boi.

Carl Gallagher defensively says, "What? I tested negative, so that's good, right? Ian asked if I got antibiotics for it and I didn't, because I don't have it!"

Sitting opposite Carl on the couch is an older man, also a looker in his own right: chiseled face, with a mop of curly, sandy hair, and a pair of piercing blue eyes. This, the internet would later learn from Debbie's subsequent videos introducing her family, is Lip Gallagher. He is not on any social media platforms, much to the chagrin of Debbie's fans, because apparently he "doesn't do all that."

In the STD video, he's frowning at Carl throughout the entire sixty seconds, as if he's unsure he's hearing things right but is fearful of offending his little brother if he outright asks, "Do you seriously not know?"

"O-okay, but Dom, she tested positive?" Lip asks as he shares a look with the third person in the video: a redhead sitting on the coffee table, also unfairly good-looking, with freckles adorning his kissable face, and a pair of green eyes that’s hiding mirth and amusement behind them.

This is Ian Gallagher. He's mostly on Instagram, but would later also create a TikTok account where he would share fascinating insights into his life as an EMT in Chicago (such as his experience working at music festivals, little sketches based on real-life patient encounters, and helpful first aid tips). Half of the internet will be disappointed to learn that lan is gay, and the other half will go wild with delusional thoughts of getting together with him.

The internet, being the internet, would fawn and fangirl over all three brothers and Debbie, with most commenting something about the Gallaghers winning the genetic jackpot and asking @debz_thegallagher if she has any other siblings running around that they should know about.

(She says she does, and in a separate video, she introduces her oldest sibling, Fiona, and her youngest sibling, adorable little Liam. The internet falls in love with both of them, too.)

"Yeah, she tested positive," Carl says. "And I gave it to her," he sighs.

Debbie howls with laughter behind the camera, further agitating poor Carl.

"Yo, shut the fuck up!" he yells, but Debbie is gasping, "I can't — I can't, I fucking—”

"Debs, you're not helping," lan chastises, but he, too, is fighting to keep his face neutral. It seems like he, too, doesn't want to offend Carl in this sensitive matter.

"Look, buddy," Lip chimes in gently, "if — if you don't have it...there's no way you coulda given it to her."

Ian nods emphatically, while Carl looks half relieved and half confused.

"I... I couldn't?" His tone is soft, uncertain.

In the background, it sounds like Debbie's finally managed to catch her breath.

"No," Ian says, "but it means that she, uh..." There's a trace of a smile on his face now. "Got it from… somewhere else."

Carl nods and looks down for a brief moment.

"Oh. Like from a toilet seat?"

This sets Debbie off again.

“Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!” she yells, her bright peels of laughter drowning out whatever protests and curses Carl is hurling her way.

Even Lip is smirking now, but he quickly schools his face back to a semblance of seriousness as he speaks over Debbie's cackles in the background:

"No, no, no..."

"Uhhh," says lan, who is now smiling tightly at Carl. Carl, who looks expectantly from one brother to the next.

"More like, um..." Lip pauses, and stares right at Carl. "From another guy's dick."

There is silence from all three brothers then, but Lip's direct, rip-the-bandage-off approach has Debbie dying of laughter again in the background.

Before the video ends and loops back to the beginning, the viewers can see that Lip's face is still serious, but he's biting his lower lip as he looks steadily at Carl. Carl is frowning at the floor, letting the information that his girlfriend is cheating on him with another man sink in. Ian has his head bowed, hiding his face from the viewers, but his shoulders are shaking, probably with laughter that he can no longer contain.

Then Carl groans — “Motherfu—" — before Debbie cuts the camera off.

This STD video has 75.6 million views and counting.)

Not all of the Gallaghers have remained on the internet, though. Only Debbie and lan are active on their respective preferred platforms, so this particular halloween video of hers has garnered more views than her other recent ones because it features a reunion between her and two of her brothers from the famed STD video.

Carl Gallagher has let his natural curls take over; it's in something resembling an afro now, and the internet asks if the Gallaghers have any African American blood in them, seeing as Liam, the youngest, is black.

(Debbie never answers these questions, content on leaving her followers to keep speculating.)

Carl appears in a chef's outfit as he crosses in front of Debbie who is dancing to and miming the lyrics of Lady Marmalade (or the gitchi gitchi ya ya da da song). She is dressed up as Kris Jenner, with a short black wig to embody Kris Jenner’s iconic haircut, a boob-tastic black outfit, and a pair of sunglasses.

Ian Gallagher crosses in front of her a short second after, eyeing the camera and smirking at it and scratching his nose with his left thumb before disappearing to join Carl on the other side. He is sporting the beginnings of a mullet, and is dressed up in a black tux. No one has any idea what he’s dressed up as, not even Debbie, apparently, based on her replies in the comment section of that video—

—the comment section of the video, which looks something like this:

Debbie • 2023-10-26

They just got Krissed @cgall19 @iangallagherEMT

Champagnemamami

OMG ALL THREE BAES IN ONE VID AGAIN?? THE REUNION WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR [liked by @debz_thegallagher]

Emma | Seeing Tyler

Debbie

Yep!! 😝 WHAT ARE YOU 😡 AN IDIOT SANDWICH 🥪

knackmovesaway

Lip????? Where?????? 😭

Debbie

Sorry he hates the internet because he is Old™

While most of the comments are focused on the siblings’ reunion and halloween costumes, a small, hyper-focused portion of them are obsessing over a new detail they’ve noticed with Ian Gallagher. Apparently the tiniest, most briefest action of him scratching his nose had given people something to speculate over.

grossmatthew!

Waiiiit 👀 Ian is married now??

kay in her idgaf era

I spy with my little eye a wedding band @iangallagherEMT

Asia Deveraux ✨

No 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 tell me its not true ian youre not married right!!!!!

🐐 🐐

I hear a thousand fangirl & fanboy hearts breaking lmao congrats @iangallagherEMT

🖐️ Dani 🖐️

@iangallagherEMT husband reveal when?? 👀

JewelOsco’s Cousin

Omg u guys need to chill tf out abt ian it could just be part of his costume

Debbie doesn’t reply to any of these comments, and neither does Ian.

(But his actions speak louder than words when, even after the halloween video, the silver band remains on his left ring finger in his EMT videos posted on his own platforms, convincing his and Debbie’s followers that he is indeed married now.)

The STD video and the halloween video continue to garner steady views as the years go by, with new people coming in and commenting things like,

“My sex ed teacher showed our class this video today lmaooo I think everyone paid attention today!!”

and,

“poor carl 💀 kudos to the patient brothers tho for handling this with such gentle kid gloves”

as well as,

“tag urself im the unhelpful sister cackling in the background!”💅🏻

Carl Gallagher eventually learns to embrace his internet nickname and even gets invited to Liam’s school to make a brief appearance during their Sexual Health Awareness Month (much to the embarrassment of Liam).

One can find the Gallaghers on their respective social media accounts below:

Debbie:

@debz_thegallagher (TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat) — where you will most likely find contents on womens’ rights, LGBTQ+ issues, and updates on the other Gallaghers;

Carl:

@cgall19 (TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat) — if you are into TikTok thirst traps and viral trends;

and Ian:

@IanGallagherEMT (TikTok) and @IanCGallagherEMT (Instagram) — if you’d like to learn some life-saving tips or get content on mental health awareness, or if you’re just into funny EMT skits.

(Debbie once joked that Lip might have a Facebook account somewhere, and she is right. You can find him by searching Lip R Gallagher on Facebook — but the page is blank save for his name and DOB, which is listed only as 1995.)

Inspired by:

Emma Rose Kenney’s original TikTok video

That one funny scene where Lip & Ian had to gently explain to Carl that his gf is cheating on him!

And also Markiplier’s fans freaking out over the apparent wedding band that he’s wearing in this Cloak video.

GALLADRABBLES #167 - TWIN SIZE MATTRESS BY THE FRONT BOTTOMS

Thank you for the lovely song rec, dear Comet @spacerockwriting ❤️ Here's a little AU and I have no idea how much sense it makes 😅 Paging @galladrabbles 😎

---

‘Can I crash at yours tonight?’

He freezes, fork halfway to his mouth. The knee-jerk answer is hell, yeah. The more reasonable one would be not sure I want you to see where and how I live.

A fucking dump. Obviously better than the Milkovich house of horrors but still…

So he buys time.

‘Why?’

‘Lip’s flavour of the month is coming over and our walls are paper-thin. Can't fucking do it anymore.’

Right.

‘I only have a twin bed, man, and the lumpiest sofa.’

‘I’ll sleep on the floor. C’mon, Mick. Help!’

This is the worst idea ever.

‘Fine.’

Twin Size Mattress by The Front Bottoms

Thanks for this @galladrabbles prompt, @spacerockwriting. This song will always make me think of @creepkinginc.

Previously, in The Lord and the Footman, they enjoyed each other's company deep in the forest. But the proposal and dinner loom...

---

They lay together, spent, clothes scattered. Fat droplets of rain plunked through the trees, bouncing off their skin. 

Ian reached for his tunic. “T’wouldn’t do to show up at dinner looking a wet mess.”

“What, her ladyship won’t accept your hand covered in my seed?” Mickey smiled, pleased. Possessive. 

“You have somewhere I can clean up?”

“Sure. But my quarters are a shelf and a small mattress. Hardly what you’re used to.”

Ian touched his cheek. “You aren’t cursed to sleep there forever. I’ll ensure that.”

Mickey nodded, barely convinced. “Let’s get you ready to head into the lion’s den.”

Galladrabbles: Twin Size Mattress

Thank you @spacerockwriting for our @galladrabbles song prompt this week! Such beautiful and melancholy lyrics in this song, but of course I could only think to put them in this situation 🤷‍♀️

===================================

“I want a normal twin mattress, man. Don’t need no sleep-number-temper-whatever-the-fuck-memory-foam crap.”

Mickey starts pacing around the “Mattress Showroom”, and for the tenth time, wonders why he ever listens to Mandy. What was wrong with buying this shit online like everything else??

Don’t be a dumbass, you gotta go test it out first!

He’s staring at another bed when a new sales guy approaches. 

“Sir, my associate tells me you’d like to test out a mattress?” Says a tall redhead sporting a name tag and an obnoxious smirk. Damnit.

“Yep. Maybe you should show me that King-size one over there.”

[spacerockwriting]

Ian is the kinda guy who would save stickers because he wanted to be sure he placed it in the best spot

Mickey will take that fucking sticker outta his hand and put it on his forehead “there ya go, big guy! the best place for it”

[spacerockwriting]

What If-part 7

Adjusting on the bed, Mickey looked at Ian with questions in his eyes.

Ian smiled at him softly, “Yes, it is our bed.”

Cocking his head sideways, “You couldn’t upgrade or even buy a new one?”

Shaking his head, Ian replied, “It wouldn’t smell like you.”

“You saying I smell Gallagher?”

Ian looked at Mickey, “You smell alright. You smell like home. Fuck, I missed you.”

Mickey pulled himself over to straddle Ian’s thighs, “I missed you too.”

Kissing him, Mickey pulled back, “The hardest thing I ever had to do was send you away.”

Ian pulled Mickey into kiss.

Shameless Big Bang Round 13

Fire When Ready by Suzy_Queue and @francesrose3 with art by @kiennilove 39414 words, 14 chapters Canon divergent

What if the season three kiss and sleepover never happened?

Mickey is out of juvie, but Terry still breathes down his neck. Ian wants more than casual hook-ups. After a weapons run out of town, Mickey realizes that being away from Ian is the safest option, even if it breaks his heart.

This reimagining of canon events weaves a new path filled with pining and reunions set against the backdrop of The Windy City Gun Show. With Mickey perpetually on the road and Ian alone at home, will they always find their way back to each other?

Read on AO3!
