#and we were like holy fuck this is a fob au

[angelsarrm]

what i've learnt here today is that you, mars, have the power to talk to me endlessly about literally any tv show if you simply recolor it as a fob au. like i would be completely entertained with whatever you say

sometimes i watch movies when im high and insert fall out boy into the characters im not even gonna lie to u so im glad my crazy stretches of weird fob aus can appeal to someone HAHAHAHAH

[fandomfluffandfuck]

Hi I know you’re not officially writing rn but as the self-appointed FOB fan on this blog I am letting you know I would read the fuck out of ‘Just One Yesterday’ or ‘Heaven’s Grief, Hell’s Rain’ or ‘Find Yourself a New Gig’ or really anything I could suggest lyric titles for ages truly (or whatever you decide to call it - this is about that cop!Bucky/incarcerated!Steve AU - you know, the 2nd oldest draft? yeah)

[[obvi your writing never misses but your AUs with FOB lyric titles?? I Want To Teach You A Lesson??? they FUCK!!!!!!]]

🖤

related to this for the incarcerated!Steve × cop!Bucky plot bunny

I mean, you're not the only Fall Out Boy fan here obviously lol. Their music is just *chef's kiss*

I don't know why but I love everything about it, Patrick's voice, Pete's lyrics (which, now, everyone's lyrics because they're all amazing song writers), the sound, the production. Just. Yes.

On the topic of FOB lyrics... here's a few that ✨inspire✨ me beyond "Anything you say can and will be held against you / so only say my name / it will be held against you" :

"He's well hung and I am hanging up" (obviously a fantastic title for a phone sex fic lmao)

"Keep quiet, nothing comes as easy as you" (I mean... 😏 if that lyric doesn't scream public play, let me jerk you off under the table and whisper humiliating things into your ear while you try not to make faces or sounds that tell everyone what we're doing... idk what does)

And from the same song, "So wear me like a locket around your throat / I'll weigh you down, I'll watch you choke" (perfect for a good ol' breath play fic y’know)

Uhm, just all of Church because that fucking song is About Blowjobs And You Can't Change My Mind. "If you were church, I'd get on my knees / confess my love, I'd know where to be. / My sanctuary, you're holy to me..." then "...and take the pain / make it billboard big then swallow it for me"

"We do it in the dark / with smiles on our faces / we're dropped and well-concealed / in secret places" (just. Y'know. Causual semi-public sex.)

"I wanna see your animal side / let it all out I wanna see the dirt / under your skin" (...omegaverse anyone?)

Anyway... yeah. Fall Out Boy just strikes a chord in me I guess and whatever comes out of their lyrics is just feral lmao. I'm glad you appreciate it haha

Ohmegod YES PacRim is THE movie my favourite movie of all time tell me everything you think about it!!!

- Lemon

HI LEMON *blows kisses*

Pacific Rim? YOU MEAN THE BEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME. I like it a normal amount. *vibrates at a frequency that shatters glass*

I'm not going to write actual meta on it bc I've only seen it twice now and the movie is older than my tumblr account, but I will talk about things I liked!

Raleigh's bitch ass accent was fucking HILARIOUS. I think the actor doesn't actually have an American accent and was TRYING HIS BEST but honestly he sounded like those hick guys I grew up with who were trying to imitate city dudes.

Raleigh and Mako? The only ship ever?? Like let's be honest, there are only two m/f dynamics in action film media and it's Competent Female puts up with Dumb Blond who is somehow Better Than Her until she falls in love with him and magically becomes useless + Sexiest Guy and Passive Love Interest make eye contact one (1) time and They Are Canon.

But Raleigh and Mako? Yeah there's a bit of friction there, but it's clear that they have respect for each other and are putting the mission above everything else!! Raleigh really takes one look at her and goes "yup I want that one" and fights for her agency!! And Mako is allowed to have a character arc besides side kick to Main Character and it's amazing and I'm crying she's literally the best.

The Marshal was so fucking good and that speech couldn't have been delivered by anyone but him in this dumbass movie. My first thought when he showed up on screen was oh this guy better fuck up the white people AND HE DID! Fuck yeah this guy is awesome!!

I am a Slut™ for characters with daddy issues so the relationship between the Hansen's actually had me feeling a certain way.

Speaking of which, surprised they didn't give Raleigh daddy issues bc that's usually the trope given to your main character, not the side rival. Actually, I was overall impressed with Raleigh as a character. Even though he obviously had Trauma™, he's dealing with it in a healthier way than most protagonists and takes the first opportunity to open up to Mako about it. We absolutely stan vulnerability in this house.

Drift Compatibility is The Only Trope I Care About Right Now. I am writing every fandom au on the planet for this bc it's that good. I have hated the soulmates trope literally forever, but this one gets a pass.

Giant robots punching ocean aliens activated my inner eight year old.

THE SWORD THE CHAINSAW SWORD THE DRAGON + KNIGHT IMAGERY HOLY SHIT.

The fact that FOB has a song based off the scene where they meet in the rain has me feeling a certain way (thanks Loo for bringing this to my attention I will be have cry feelings about this for a while).

THE SOUNDTRACK HOLY FUCK WHAT WAS THAT SOOO GOOD.

The CGI was also banger for 2013 like that shit holds up baybe.

Gay fucking scientists? In an action movie? It's more likely than you think. Okay but fr these guys be married and I will not be taking criticism. I also really liked the tattoos the one guy had that was also banger.

The sparring scene was Cinema and one of my favorite film scenes of all time. Between the off the charts UST and the incredible stunts I was fr loosing my mind.

ALSKDJFLKD honestly so many things I could rave about in relation to this movie there literally wasn't a moment that I did not enjoy and it's been living in my head rent free for the last 70 hours. Tysm everyone who bullied me into watching it, but jokes on you now I'm going to shove every au down ur throat until you block me. <3

McGrawHamilton Uni AU

I’ve been to uni in the UK and met some people and had some experiences that made me want to write the Black Sails characters as Uni Freshers. So here it is, 

PART 1 of infinity, I kid, but really I’m not seeing an end to this so....... PART 1

Imagine James McGraw is moving to Manchester for the first time and is all O_O and lost. Anyway, he’s like “Take a deep breath James, it’s just a city, no biggie, calm down, be cool, it’s only your first day at Uni, you’ll be alright.”  Thus our story begins.

It took James McGraw a bus and a train ride to get from his home to the city of Manchester. Once in Manchester he took a deep breath and used GoogleMaps to get his bearings as well as figure out how to get from the train station to his new halls. He had admittedly lost his mind a tad and splurged a bit when he had gotten his student maintenance loan, so he was looking for one of the “better” halls in Manchester. Once he had figured out how to go from the bus station to his halls (”Bus number 147.″ a polite -if slightly drunk- man had told him) he was able to take another deep breath.

He managed to get on the bus and get to halls in about half an hour. After getting his welcome pack from the reception of his halls (which contained two different forms as well as his access fob and room/flat and post box keys) he is told his flat number and the building it was in. 

He manages to get from the reception to his flat relatively painlessly. Once he enters his flat he finds five other people sitting in the common area. (”Fuck, I look and smell like shit, I’m not ready to meet people and here I fucking am with like five people looking at me, SHIT!”) He goes to his room (”Ensuite- awesome”) and dumps his bags, and suitcases on the floor. He washes his face, brushes histeeth and then braces himself to meet his new flat mates. (“Stay cool James, stay cool.”) There’s six of them in this flat:

Charles Vane (”Don’t think about how hot he is James. Cocky fucking git he probably already knows, SHIT”)

Jack Rackham, (”What a sweetheart, shit, I just want to hug him and his perfect floppy hair”).

 Madi Scott (”I wish I was that organised, she already has her text books, I don’t even know what my reading list looks like.”)

Max Parker (”She’s such a cutie, look at her smile, also wow holy weaponised sexuality, batman.”)

Miranda Barlow (”Is she meant to be here? She’s like hella posh, fuck, am I meant to be here? Also WOW she brought a WHOLE harpsichord?!”). 

Charles decides that the best way to bond as room mates is to play drinking games. Max and Charles are the heaviest of heavy weights. Jack gets drunk and is apparently a hungry drunk because he decides that they should go to a pub to eat. “I’m sure there’s a ‘Spoons near here.” Jack announces after demolishing another bag of crisps. Miranda handles her liquor well as she is no where near drunk, but she is getting gigglier (”Is that a word?”) and gigglier.  Madi didn’t want to drink but she watches them get stupider and stupider, records their bad behaviour and laughs at them. And he....... he wants to curl into a ball and cry. He also wants to fight Charles, just because...... why the fuck not. He ends up arm wrestling Charles (and losing, but never mind that).

They end up at a kebab shop approximately 20 steps from their halls. Jack orders a kebab with everything. Charles is flirting with a random girl they met at the shop. Madi gets cheesy chips (”Now I weirdly crave falafel and hummus.”).  Miranda gets a chicken sandwich meal deal and gives Max her fries. James gets a classic fish and chips and douses both with salt and vinegar. When they look up from their food they find Charles is already locking lips with the girl (”That didn’t take long” Jack tells him, “Yet, when you look like that, it wouldn’t take long.”). Then Jack goes off with some random redheaded girl. (”Hi Anne.” “I wanna fuck.” “Okay, then, I guess I’ll be off, bye guys.” Max and Madi laugh at Jacks’ retreating form, Miranda just smiles into her apple tango.) Charles also leaves with the girl. (”Don’t wait up guys, daddy’s gotta take of business.” Charles whispers at them with a massive smirk. “Fuck off Charles” James says with a mouth full of fries. “Have a good night.” Max offers, before returning to the near empty box of fries.) Max finishes the fries and then pouts at the empty box.  “If you want I could get you more fries?” James offers. Max brightens up at that. “Thanks.” “Get like two boxes then, sine I’m sure we’ll all end up sharing them.” Miranda says before turning back to her phone. “Sure.” James responds as he goes to the counter. 

A group of lads then walk into the kebab shop. (A/N This image kinda captures their banter with each other but they are dressed more like Jack and Finn from Jacksgap- which is to say well put together, perfectly fitted and stylish as hell).

They all have extremely posh accents and look like they’ve never seen the inside of Primark, let alone the charity shops James buys 70% of the clothes he owns from. Three of the lads go to the second of the three booths in the tiny shop. One of them comes up to the counter. He sees James and smiles. 

James smiles back, then he remembers he was meant to be buying food. 

“Uh, can I get two boxes of fries.”

“And some onion rings.” Max shouts from somewhere behind him.

“Uh, and onion rings.” James adds putting 3 pound coins on the counter.

The man behind the counter gets busy serving the dishes. “Sauce?” He asks. “No thanks.” James says with a wide smile.

“Next.” The man says after handing James his food. 

“Hi.” The posh lad says. “Can I get two number 7′s, a 5 and a cheesy garlic bread.” He then hands the man a twenty. James goes back to his booth. Miranda looks up from her phone and then exclaims “Thomas!”

The lad at the bar looks back at them. “Miranda! Madi!” At that Madi turns around to face the lad and ends up grinning.

He then comes to their booth and to give Miranda and Madi massive hugs. Miranda pseudo crawls over James in her haste to give Thomas a hug. “I haven’t seen you since we went to the gardens last month. How have you been?” Miranda asks. “I’ve been goo-”

“Thomas.” One of the other lads calls from their booth. “I think the food is ready.” The other boys laugh. Thomas shakes his head before giving Miranda another hug. “I’ll be back.” He gets the food, dishes it out amongst the lads he came with and then returns to their booth with his order. 

“Aren’t you leaving your friends a little high and dry?” Miranda asks chuckling and stealing one of his chicken wings. “Hey boys, am I leaving you high and dry?” Thomas calls over his shoulder. One of the lads he came with laughs out loud while another one says “Nah, you can have him. We’d have killed him if he had stayed.” The third is focused on eating.

Thomas then looks at Miranda who shrugs. Max steals another of his chicken wings. “Please eat before Max and Miranda eat all your food.” Madi says eating an onion ring. Thomas laughs and tucks into his burger. James hasn’t stopped staring at him. (”Holy shit he’s hot. Like, fuck me, he’s really hot.”) Thomas turns to smile at him. “I know Miranda and Madi but I don’t know the rest of you.” James goes slightly red as Miranda starts introductions. “That’s Max.” Max smiles and eats some more fries. “Next to me is James.” James almost chokes on his chip. He manages to hold out his hand for a hand shake. Which Thomas takes with a soft chuckle. “You already know Madi.” Miranda says while staring at him questioningly. “Yeah we were chained together on the M4 for the better part of a day. We then spent 30 hours in holding.”  Thomas then shakes his head “Not to forget going to court for those three days.” Madi adds taking one of two his chicken pieces.“Yeah. Good times.” Thomas says with a smile, giving up and pushing his last three wings, piece of chicken and left over fries towards Max, Madi and Miranda.

“How do you and Miranda know each other?” James dares to ask. Miranda then laughs very loudly before looking at Thomas. “The truth?” He asks her. She nods. “We’re married.” James is grateful he has no food in his mouth because then he’d have spit it out. Max and Madi look as stunned as he feels. “We got married in kindergarten.” Miranda clarifies. “We’ve been stupidly close since.” Thomas then kisses her hand. “I’d be lost without you.” He tells her. Miranda then gasps. “We should have you over for dinner tomorrow.” Madi nods. “Dinner?” James asks. Miranda looks at him. “You mean tea don’t you?” James says with a wide smile. Max looks confused. “De quoi parlez-vous?” Miranda then answers “The great English North- South divide.” James then turns to Max. “As we are in Manchester- which is the North- the correct term for the last meal of the day is tea.” Madi and Miranda roll their eyes. Finally Thomas says, “Very well then, am I invited for tea tomorrow night or not?” James smiles and says “Yeah, sure.”

“Thomas!” One of the lads calls out. “You’re either in this Uber with us or your taking the bus.”

Thomas smiles at them as he gets home. “Well that’s my cue. Good night my dears.” He kisses Mirandas’ and Madis’ hands and shakes James’. Max gets up and kisses his cheek. “Thanks for the food.” She tells him. “You’re more than welcome.” Thomas says before leaving.

James discreetly sniffs the air around where Thomas sat, and finds that it still  smells of Thomas’ cologne and after shave.(”I’m fucking screwed. I have a crush on a rich southern lad. Great.”) 

“Well what are we doing for tomorrows dinn- I’m sorry I mean tea.” Miranda asks the table. “Let’s discuss this tomorrow.” Max says. “I want to go to this party I was invited to.” Miranda nods. They all leave the booth. They all offer to walk Max to the party. Max declines their offers. “I’ll go back to the flat, get changed and then meet my friends at the reception. We’ll go together.” Miranda nods. 

Once the get back to the flat James bids them all good night and then goes to bed.
