title: It Starts With Penguins in Space, or Some Shit Like That
author: lisa roquin
fandom: MCR/30stm
pairing/characters: Shannon Leto/Bob Bryar, background ensemble including-Jared Leto, Tomo Milicevic, Gerard/Lyn, Mikey/Alicia, Frank/Jamia, Ray/Christa, James DeWees, Matt Cortez, Brian Schechter, OMCs, OFC, various others flitting through the background.
prompts: my 2008 pairings prompts Shannon Leto/Bob Bryar, and intended for
[Bad username: ”ides_of_march”] prompt-Seasons but the rest of the set isn't getting written in time for that. Obviously.
disclaimer: lies, fiction, untrue. completely and totally made up. I know no one, know nothing of their personal lives. I make no claims of knowing much of anything.
Summary: The last time Jared tried to play matchmaker for Shannon he almost got his brother killed. This time-well, there's bus breakdowns and blizzards, techs rented out for the price of a slice of veggie lovers, penguin break ups, stolen thermal underwear and the two most oblivious drummers on the planet too good at ignoring machinations for their own good and things just spiral into batshit crazy from there.
Warning: slash, language, alcohol, reference/small amount of casual drug use and fluff fluff fluff Schmoop and more fluff. Somehow the prompt of Shannon/Bob for a smutlet turned into the
facepalm! Oh you Dorks! version of a Harlequin.
author notes: much love to TW & Dreamyraynbo for their pokes at where these guys made them go “buh?” with their jumps
