Word Count: 34, 598

Summary: “Welcome to the Dance, Tyson.”
Tyson keeps having these dreams, full of music and creatures and Him. He can’t stop them, and they keep coming. Every night, without fail. Madness was never this horrifying, was it?

Author's Note: This was meant for last Halloween, and has been an absolute Nightmare (haha, get it?) to Beta, so it’s taken a whole year! The biggest of thanks have to be given to nuclearxsquid and xaritomene who were there every step of the way while I was writing this and allowed me to ramble at them incessantly for months, and then for having goes at Betaing this. More thanks again to xrysomou who had a go, and finally neon_footprint for finishing the Betaing and putting up with my ignorance of the English language. They are awesome and if you do anything, leave them a comment for how brilliant they’ve been. They’ve earned it.

Posting everywhere, sorry for the spam guys!

Fic - The Humming Two (Or how Tyson is Nick's Kryptonite)
Title: The Humming Two (Or how Tyson is Nick’s Kryptonite)
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Mentions of mental health issues
Word Count: 5,091
Summary: When Tyson stopped calling, Nick was annoyed, but looking back, that had probably been the first symptom of The Humming
Author's Note: So! Yes! I’ve done a sequel, or rather, companion fic for The Humming! I’ve had it for a while, but just haven’t gotten around to posting it because I wanted to wait and see what happened. So I did, and there is also a third part in the works! It’s approaching completion, so I thought it might be a good thing to post this!
HUGE THANKS goes to nuclearxsquid for betaing, and xaritomene for being a lovely plot bouncer! If I could, I’d give them all the Tim Tam’s in the world :P
Posting everywhere! Sorry if there's spam!

Fic: The Queen and Us: AAR: Nick/Tyson
Title: The Queen and Us
Authors: xrysomou and xaritomene
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Word Count: 4320
Pairing: Pairing is not the focus, but background Nick/Tyson
Disclaimer: We are not affiliated with any of these people, and everything herein is a filthy, disgusting lie. Also, Mike isn't really a mad defender of the proletariat. And Chris is almost certainly not a closet royalist who's bought a commemorative 'Will&Kate' mug.

We hope.

Summary: AAR watch the Royal Wedding. No, we don't know either.

AN 1: So, apparently some girl got married to some guy today, and it was kind of a big deal. Driven mad by union jack bunting with people's faces on it, we wrote this.
AN 2: We're really very, very sorry.

Fic: schmoop_bingo Amnesty: 'serenade'
Title: Serenade
Prompt: Serenade
Pairing: Nick/Tyson
Rating: G
Warnings: None, though brief mentions of sex
Word Count: 957
Summary: Tyson has a cunning plan to win Nick over, though unfortunately, it looks quite a lot like their normal interactions, and Nick is not racing to get with the program.

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with any of the people written about here, and none of this is true. And if you are one of the people written about here, for your own sanity, leave now!

AN: beta'd by the fragrant and lovely xrysomou and cheerled by the delicious lullula.

Fic: AAR: Most Delicious Poison (And You're the Cure, Too): Nick/Tyson
Title: Most Delicious Poison (And You're the Cure, Too)
Rating: Light R
Pairing: Nick/Tyson
Warnings: um, teenage boys making out. Which, handily, is also a summary.
Word Count: 3268
Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with any of the people mentioned, and everything you read here is a filthy, filthy lie.
Summary: Teenage boys making out; Nick and Tyson are eighteen and sixteen respectively, it's the summer before Nick goes off to college, and the band is kind of nascent right now. But that mostly takes a back seat to the kissing.

AN: The only way this could be considered a PWP is if the value for 'PWP' was 'Porn without Porn', which would just be silly, so it is a KWP - Kissing Without Plot. (and it's the most kissing I've ever written ever, so, please be kind?) Beta'd by my dearest xrysomou.

Fic: AAR: Gen: You've Been Framed
Title: You've Been Framed
Authors: xrysomou and xaritomene
Warnings: None! Well, er. Some language?
Pairing: Gen or pre-slash Nick/Tyson, if you (ha!) squint.
Rating: G
Word Count: 1275
Summary: Tyson has a bit of an obsession with Nick's glasses, but he never meant to break them. Scrambling to get back into someone's good graces is less fun when they can't really see it...

AN: Will eventually be part of a trilogy (the imaginatively named Glasses Trilogy!), the other parts of which don't link into this so much as are linked by Nick Wheeler having, well, glasses. One of them is a Superman!AU? *lures* And these other parts will be here soon. Honest.

Fic: Arguments in the Key of Reason: Nick/Tyson
Title: Arguments in the Key of Reason
Authors: xaritomene and xrysomou
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Here be smut. Consider yourselves warned for Gabe.
Pairing: Nick/Tyson (minor Gabe/Tyson, mentions of Gabe/Bill)
Word Count: 4727
Summary: Nick and Ty are in love and have been forever - they just need a helping hand in the right direction. And Gabe... well, Gabe's always been handsy handy.
Disclaimer: Not ours, never happened, never will, please don't eat us.

A/N: This fic is a mix of utter crack and a sliver of canon; Gabe once got thoroughly over-excited about meeting Tyson and posted about it on his Twitter. The word 'swoon' was mentioned. Sadly, they never did meet (one gets the impression that Tyson, very sensibly, ran for his life), and the tweet itself is lost in the mists of Gabe's Twitter
Here's what we like to think might have happened:

Title: In Which Tyson is Silly and Nick is Sillier

Fandom: All-American Rejects

Pairing: Tyson/Nick

Theme: Resisting Temptation (Number 116)

Genre: Romance, Fluff

Warnings: Alcohol and slash!

Words: 738

A/N: This is set in their highschool days, if that makes any difference. xaritomene convinced me into crossposting this, so enjoy! It was written for the 500themes  prompt "Resisting Temptation."

Crossposted to my journal, aar_capslock , and bandslashmania . Sorry for any spam!

Nick was finding it very hard to not kiss Tyson. And with each beer he drank, he found it harder to rationalize not kissing Tyson. Especially when Tyson kept leaning in close to whisper-shout something in Nick's ear.

Fic: AAR: Rhyming in the Key of Magic
Title: Rhyming in the Key of Magic
Rating: PG
Warnings: Ridiculousness?
Word Count: 1,953
Summary: Tyson thought the letter he got was a joke, until he actually arrived at Hogwarts. The entire thing was mad, strange, insane - and yet, he somehow managed to enjoy himself along the way.

AN: Harry Potter crossover, obviously. Almost every bandom character is here! Gerard is Snape's potions assistant! Pete Wentz runs the school with an iron fist! Everyone is a Pureblood! Chris is sharing a dorm with Harry Potter!

...Yeah, I don't even know what the hell happened. (Written for my bandom_100 prompt table, for the prompt 'magic'.)

Two Short Ficlets
Title: Feelin' Good, 883 words
Band: AAR
Pairing: Nick Wheeler/Tyson Ritter
Rating PG
Nick and Tyson are crushing on each other, and when they look back on things, they'll blame the summer heat for the way they're both totally, totally oblivious to each other's giant crushes.

Title: Ships in the Night, 752 words
Band: All-American Rejects/My Chemical Romance
Pairing: Mikey Way/Mike Kennerty (mostly gen)
Rating: G
Mikey just wants a bit of goddamn peace in the mad rush of Warped Tour. With what feels like hundreds of other bands around, though, peace is a hard-won commodity.

Fic: Music With Rocks In
Title: Music With Rocks In
Rating: G
Warnings: None! (O.o)
Word Count: 796
Pairing: Gen
Summary: When Tyson and Nick were younger, they had plans to take over the world. The plan's changed, but the goals are still the same.

Or: "What're we going to do tonight, Brain!?" "What we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world."

AN: The crack that dares not speak its name! Written for whocares19_05 as the fic she donated for over at help_haiti. She asked for an angsty Tyson-moves-to-LA fic. I did talk to her before giving her mad, vaguely Terry Pratchett-esque, Pinky-and-the-Brain-inspired, unashamed crackfic, but I'm still not entirely convinced this was a fair exchange. *grin*

Fic: Taken Where You Want To Go: Nick/Tyson
Title: Taken Where You Want To Go
Authors: xrysomou and xaritomene
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Light bondage (of the DIY kind; er, homespun bondage?)
Pairing: Nick/Tyson
Word Count: 9973
Disclaimer: None of this is true, and neither of us are affiliated with anyone mentioned here. If you got here by googling yourself or your famous friends, the back-button is probably your best and most famous friend. *nodnod*
Summary: It's ludicrous that Tyson would mumble it, but he tries to anyway, and he kind of stumbles over his words, lips numb with alcohol as he tries to lower his voice. "Yeah, and I was just thinking. Best sex has been when someone held me down."

AN: Probably the most hardcore thing either of us have ever written, and we're nervous as hell about posting. Er, be gentle? (Also, the italics for the beginning section are deliberate, not a coding mess-up; bear with it?)

Title: The Sparkle Lounge, Part 3
Authors: xrysomou and xaritomene. xx!
Rating: NC-17 overall, R this chapter
Pairing: Nick/Tyson, Mike/Chris, Toad/Kim
Warnings: Mentions of the sex industry, stripping, blatant sexual content, some language
Word Count: This part, 4259 words
Disclaimer: Tyson is not a stripper, though that isn't always obvious IRL. *grin* Basically, we are not affiliated with these people and the events described are not true. The old 'if you Googled yourself' disclaimer, as always, applies. (AVAUNT THEE, TYSON RITTER!)
Summary: Tyson is a stripper, and Nick is his accidental client brought to his club by a well-meaning friend for his birthday. Things escalate (horribly) from there.

AN: Title (appropriately?) taken from Def Leppard's new album 'Songs from the Sparkle Lounge', as is the base for the banner. Neither of us have ever been to a strip club so please forgive any errors, all those who know more, and do please enlighten us as to our mistakes. *g*

Possessed by Colour: A Series of Ficlets (Nick/Tyson)
Title: Possessed by Colour (Series Title)
Rating: PG
Warnings: Occasional bad language, some kissing later.
Pairing: Nick/Tyson
Summary: Tyson emotionalises colour – that is, he associates certain feelings with certain colours in his head. He doesn’t know whether it’s some kind of psychological thing to help him deal with them, or whatever, he’s just always done it, that’s the way it is. And it sure does make the inside of his head a prettier place to be sometimes.
Disclaimer: These are real people presented here; I’m not affiliated with them and none of these events took place. If you got here by googling yourself or your famous friends, abandon all hope, ye who enter here please hit the back-button now.

AN: Based on the first few my bandom_100 prompt table here, where I claimed ‘Nick/Tyson’. Hope you enjoy!
