Summary: After escaping his family's expectations of a college degree and a secure job in favor of music, Jon Walker joins up with The Academy Is... as a tech and finds himself in a whole new world. Always before, he has been one of the band members, now he's on the outside and seeing things he never had the distance to see before. TAI is far from as steady as he thought they were, especially when Panic! at the Disco catches a break while in England and become stars overnight. It's becoming increasingly clear that something is going to break.
So far, the story is similar to history. But then Brent befriends Jon and introduces him to Panic, an impulsive Flickr decision leaves Jon fangirl-famous and Jon starts to realize that maybe he wants more than friendship from Brent even as TAI starts to break and Panic deals with their sudden fame. And as things between Jon and Brent heat up, everything else begin to fall apart.
