Bob fic-recs...
Okay, went looking for some Bob fics after I read a request over at mcshearts and I kind of went overboard with looking so here's a list of my recs.
Bob recs - in a not so specific order - but with some additional details.
Long-fics, short-fics... Many pairings represented and I can recommend all of these :)
I will try to organise this further later and add more, so feel free to suggest new fics.

watch him as he goes by clumsygirl bobfrank superheroAU 14700
The second one (or: Adventures at JerseyCon) by mwestbelle AU BobGee 20k
Summary: Bob is a good personal assistant (the best) and he definitely knows better than to fall in love with his boss. But when your boss is the goth-pop comic master of our time, Gerard Way, there's more to the job than keeping a datebook. There are appearances to shepherd him to, showers to make him take, and deadlines to remind him to meet. And, really, he's so earnest, it's not that surprising that a crush might develop. Just at tiny one.
T he One Where Brendon is a Street Busker and Bob Owns a Music Studio and is Sick of People by ihrtangusyoung BobBrendon 4600
(Not Your) Superman Tonight by torakowalski BrianBob telepathyAU 37k
A Gentleman's Agreement by mahoni AU 56k
Summary: Brian buys and sells unicorns and bicorns for the titled and wealthy. When Bob's stepfather defaults on a debt he owes Brian, he uses Bob as barter to pay the debt off. Brian and Bob agree that their arrangement will be a marriage on paper only, that Bob will run Brian's stables and the relationship will remain strictly professional. But despite Bob's trust issues and Brian's propensity for drinking a lot instead of dealing with how he feels, their mutual affection for Brian's horses breaks down the walls between them. With a little help from Brian's friends and his possessed house, they begin to fall in love.

Summary: When Frank's online sort-of boyfriend Bob comes to Jersey, everyone knows it's a terrible idea, but Frank's never been good at listening - especially to himself.
Bob Bryar's Secret Baby Project by carleton97 BobBrian Kidfic 26800
Summary: Bob Bryar is a man of mystery, even Frank says so. What if there was a reason for his reticence?
Figure You Out by gonnafeelgood BobGerard mindreading 4200

Putting the B Back in Subtle by Algernon_mouse & Secrethappiness
Pairings: BobOmc, BobJepha, BobBrian
Summary: In which Bob Bryar gets a real job, grows up a little, puts the drums aside, becomes a touring sound engineer, drinks too much, repeatedly goes against his better judgment, hooks up with Jepha, gets sucked in by the earnestness of My Chem's message, is dumped by Jepha, joins MCR, develops an inconvenient crush on Brian Schechter, nearly dies, and says something he's been meaning to say for awhile.
Listened to the podfic of this and I can rec that too :)
Edit, some additions:
The One In Which Frank Wears Socks And Bob Acts On His Queenly Impulses by nanasaurus Bob/Frank 2400

Podfic available
Bob Will Never Hurt You by 1001cranes Bob/Frank 6400
Excerpt: Bob gets turned into a vampire while touring with The Used.
He’d like to say weirder things happened, but that pretty much took the cake.

The difference between lemonade and metaphors by secrethappiness
Bob/Frank of which there is podfic by Falter.
Summary: For all his experience and education, Bob thinks he could have been a little better prepared before joining a band, particularly this band. For example, he really would have liked a seminar on how to tell the difference between a metaphor and making idle conversation.
Bob recs - in a not so specific order - but with some additional details.
