Why this must be read: Lance has been turned into a frog and goes hotel hopping, trying to find his pop prince. This story offers a convincing alternative to the nsync creation myth, and is an excellent example of the ever so popular boybanders-turn-into-animals genre.


Once upon a time in a parallel universe, which wasn't exactly a parallel universe so much as it was a convenient device for the author, a young man sat by a hotel swimming pool, by turns scribbling frantically into a notebook and chewing thoughtfully on his finger in a most delightful way. Or so thought the frog, at least, who squatted under the jacaranda bush a few feet away, watching in rapt attention and heaving a little froggy sigh of would-that-‘twere-me every time the finger slipped into the young man's mouth.

The frog, as you may have gathered, was no ordinary frog, oh, no indeed, and not just because he was a parallel universe frog, either, or a frog capable of having lascivious thoughts about young men who suck their fingers, although he was both of those things. This was an enchanted frog. Because, yes, in this parallel universe, such enchantments, although rare, were very much possible. A long time ago - or a good two years ago, at any rate, but it seemed much, much longer, as one might imagine, life as a frog being what it is - this frog had been human. He'd been a very nice looking human, too, if he did say so himself, with charming green eyes, some decent biceps, and a rather splendid ass.
