Graduation by Arsenic (PG-13)

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

Fandom: POPSLASH
Pairing: Lance/JC
Author on LJ: arsenicjade
Author Website: Arsenic Jade
Why this must be read: this is being recc'ed possibly only for this line: Then again, it wasn't like Lance had ever denied that being in the group was a lot like sleeping together without the actual, say, intercourse.
Again, JC/Lance pairing; the plot is that Lance has decided that he's going to college. And so he does, with all that comes with that in terms of angst about his worth, angst about his grades, angst about his homework, and oh yeah, angst about whether or not he's leaving his friends behind. Which might sound depressing, but manages to be sweet and fun and still ring true.

Excerpt:
"Don't even think about it."

"Think about what?"

"You are not putting blacklights or lava lamps anywhere near this place."

"La-ance." JC bounced in supplication.

"No, Jace. We're going for college chic, not pimp chic."

"But lava lamps are college chic. I know, Taylor had four of them when he was at Rollins."

"You bought him all four!"

"Well, yeah, but he kept them."

Lance sighed. "Will you relent if I let you string Christmas lights in any color and shape that you choose?"

JC could compromise. "If you take me to a place with a good selection."

"This is my shag pad, you think I'm taking chances here?"

someone needs to tell me what is up with this whole lava lamps thing. everyone's talking about it and yet i'm all...?

The original story is apparently truly horrible and was read alout at a British sparkly fan meeting last year to much laughter and spurred a wave of silly, cracked-out sequels. I have collected them all in my memories here. 'The lava lamp story in pics' is Terri's take on the original story, the rest of them are best read in sequence I think.

Don't forget rating info in your subject lines. Thanks!

Wheeee! It's so funny, I was thinking about this fic earlier today for some random reason, and I haven't thought about my popslash stuff in forever and then there was this, and wow, yay!

Thanks so much.
