oh. and Who's Next.

If Ryan Ross were to meet Pete Townshend, this is how I think it would go. And other things would happen, too, like Spencer would make small inquisitive remarks about father figure issues (real quiet and non-pushy, though, because he knows how Ryan is) and Pete would give Ryan lots of tips about sleeping with other musicians ("but come on, Ross,

wah.

Goddammit, I really really (seriouslyreally) dug that.

I WILL NOT BE SUCKED INTO BANDOM, WOMAN. DESPITE EFFORTS LIKE THESE I REFUSE.

But this was kind of fabulous, and by kinda, I mean totally.

hee, I'm glad you liked it. But seriously, try not to get sucked in. It'll just confused the hell out of you every moment of the day, make you think too hard about definitions and things. It is so, so uncool. It's just that... you fall in accidentally because the boys are cute and wear eyeliner, and then the underaged aus and the insanely well written kink keep you there.

I kind of enjoy the fact that when you add Pete Townshend into their mix, though, everything else they do, musically or otherwise, but especially musically) seems trivial. :P

Oh my God. I am in love with this like burning. Ryan talking to Pete Townsend! I cannot even comprehend the amount of joy that would bring me him.

[seedyapartment]

Oh, excellent! And I KNOW, RIGHT? RYAN. AND PETE TOWNSHEND. Two very awesome world collide. ♥

Oh, wow. This is the music-loving Ryan Ross of my heart. I love the way Ryan's hero worship gets derailed by music discussion so easily, and the way you evoke the music they're creating with relatively few words. And the subtle humor of this is really excellent - The title's only got two words in it - ha! Love it!

There should be a bazillion more classic rockers and young rockers together fics.

There should be a bazillion more classic rockers and young rockers together fics. How incredibly true that is. I feel like there's a gap between eras of music that should be bridged... if not in real life, most certainly in fictional worlds. :P

I'm very glad you liked this. I really want to hear Ryan talk about music more, the music that he likes. Strip him of all the makeup and the glamour and hear what he's got to say about the music, because you know he takes those sorts of things seriously but the fans never really get to see it. ♥

ooohhhhh smart bandom! I like it

[seedyapartment]

♥ thanks, I'm so glad!

[figletofvenice]

Oh, god, this is fucking amazing. Just, I can't even explain to you how happy this fic makes me.

Also, I will love this line forever: Pete clutches his heart, and whispers fervently, "that he eats!"

Love!

Glad you liked it! I had so much fun writing this, but I was afraid I'd be the only one who'd ever read it. ♥
