Fandom: BANDOM
Pairing: Brendon/Ryan/Spencer
Length: 7900
Author on LJ: arsenicjade
Author Website: Following H With C Since 1999
Why this must be read: Written for the no_tags comm, this story shows a 'what if' with Ryan, Brendon and Spencer after The Young Veins broke up.

It's heartwarming and heartwrenching at the same time. arsenicjade writes the trio so wonderfully you can't help but feel you are right in the room watching a scene just like the story unfold before you.

Yes, it is the three of them getting together, but it doesn't happen right away. It's built up towards it and comes together with a conclusion satisfying for the reader and the boys.


Ryan showed up at Brendon’s house at 3:42 on a Thursday afternoon. Brendon heard the knock while he was having a semi-serious phone conversation with Pete—which was to say that they were discussing tour outfits, rather than surf boards, or something else completely unrelated to business. Upon seeing Ryan at his door, Brendon asked, “Uh, can I call you back?” and hung up without waiting for an answer.

*hugs the crap out of you* Dude, there's nothing like scrolling through c_v making sure all the tags are done correctly, as a mod might regularly do, and being like, "wait, that's MY name!!"

Thanks for the enormous smile and day brightener.

*giggles and returns the hug*

You're welcome! I love your fic and I found this little gem in notags there, because I'm sure all of bandom has read everything you've written so far and this was new and fresh and absolutely wonderful, I just had to share. :D

I'm glad I could make your day! :)

Seriously, if you were near, you would probably not escape my hugs alive. It would be tragic. Thank goodness for geographical distances.
