Why this must be read:
Popslash is a fandom that loves to ask, and then answer, "what if" questions. This story asks and answers the timeless question: "what if JC could read his bandmates' minds?"
JC was actually a lot better at keeping it to himself when other people were around, which pretty much convinced Chris that he could do it all the time if he wanted to -- but just didn't bother. Chris wouldn't have been surprised if it was his roundabout way of being really nice and doing the guys a favor, blurting things out when it was just them -- reminding them that they weren't alone in their heads anymore, and as uncomfortable and unfair as it was, there wasn't anything he could do about it.
Lance, on the other hand, was the worst. Chris had always hated how he'd characterize the rest of them when they interviewed him -- the Crazy One, for him, or the Sporty One, or the Flirty One. Chris could laugh off outsiders' criticism but he thought it was stupid to invite it, like that. And so one time, when Lance wasn't particularly sober for a radio appearance, he called JC the Freaky Mind-Reading One, and Chris had to smack him.
Chris found he had to smack a lot of them, a lot of the time, since they found out.
The story is told from Chris's point of view, and it's great. Just the right mix of humour and seriousness. And a healthy dollop of looooove, of course.
