Ryan Ross: Wedding Planner (What We Do Is Love) by adellyna (R)

Fandom: BANDOM
Pairing: Ryan/Brendon, Jon/Spencer

Why this must be read:

Ryan Ross the bitchy wedding planner is probably the greatest AU idea ever, frankly. Brendon's his incredibly loyal assistant, and Jon and Spencer are the first gay couple that he's agreed to take as clients. Jon and Spencer are adorable, and their relationship is very sweet, but what makes this fic is Brendon, and how obviously in love with each other he and Ryan are. Brendon has photographs that Ryan's taken hanging in his apartment, and Ryan has a picture of Brendon in his. You don't get more dorky and in love than that.

When they’d gone to scout the location, Brendon had packed a picnic lunch. He’d spread the blanket on the ground near the lake, fussed with it until it was smooth, even brought regular silverware because he knows how much Ryan hates the fake stuff. Ryan had wandered, photographing the angles and the way the light melts across the surface of the lake, the way the trees thin and finally relent, giving way to the open clearing that wraps around and embraces the water. A number of these photographs are framed and hang in a long, straight row in Brendon’s living room. The one of Brendon laying careful place settings, his face smooth and intent, hangs in Ryan’s.

There'd been so many assistants before Brendon. If Ryan has it his way, there won't be any after, though he might be getting Brendon one, if their business keeps growing this way.

He hears the door swing open and glances over his shoulder at it. The doorway is empty, and Ryan cocks his head to the side. “Bren?”

“Here! I’m here!” Brendon’s voice is muffled. Ryan has to lean over and look down to see Brendon on his hands and knees, gathering paperclips and shoving them back into the box. They won’t fit, Ryan knows. You can’t put a full box of paper clips back to rights once they’ve been spilled. They’re like secrets in that way.

Since the month's almost up I might as well tell you, that you totally hooked me on Panic!fandom. Like, I HAVE ACTUALLY ALREADY READ THIS FIC LOLOL. And it was awesome. So... thanks? I guess... :DDD

If inducing me to spend every moment of my spare time for the better part of a week bouncing from pic-spam to pic-spam, only to then spend an entire day preparing to pic-spam my own, ultimately horrified friends list qualifies as "help", then yes, your overview was very helpful. :|

Oh, and GSF is my flavour of choice, with an emphasis on Brendon/Ryan. *makes grabby hands*

I'm loving pretty much every panic pairing combo...except maybe Jon/Ryan. It makes me feel kind of bad for Bden 'cause I just can't seem to buy him as a disinterested heterosexual. :(

There seems to be a lot of AU's with the MCR guys in supporting roles? I'm digging the whole thing tbqh. :DDD

I have mixed feelings about Ryan/Spencer. I gag on Spence calling Ryan a slut in GSF fics, but I sort of love the idea of him supporting 15-year old Ryan's cross-dressing habit by buying him silky little camisole/panty combos. :DDD
