From Days of Yore by saekokato, PG13

This is my last rec of the month and I am sad to go! I've had plenty of fun scowering for fics to share with everyone and I hope you've liked what I've picked. Even if it's a story you've read before! So take care peeps and have fun next month with your new van driver!


Fandom: BANDOM
Pairing: Mike Carden/Kevin Jonas
Length: 9200
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] saekokato
Author Website: [livejournal.com profile] kate_fiction
Why this must be read: A newer pairing in the bandom community (there is a comm for this pairing too! [livejournal.com profile] sodamnskippy) but it has taken off. It was even featured in the [livejournal.com profile] bandombigbang this year, although I have yet to see a fic come out of it, except maybe a slight mention in that FOB/Scott Pilgram VS the World fic. But this fic itself shows how two completely different people start to grow on one another and a relationship blossoms from here.

There's some wacky hijinx and Bill declaring the Jonas Brothers to be virginal unicorns and not to be touched.

It's a classic story of bad boy falls for innocent baby deer.


“So.” There is a Jonas Brother standing in front of Mike. It has to be a Nick or a Joe, as there isn’t a Frank on tour (Jonas, anyway), and Kevin has about as many scarves as Ryan Ross. (Bill believes they breed them in the night, slowly, so that one day they would rise up and take over, first, the tour, and then the world.) Mike has no idea why a Jonas Brother, Nick or Joe, would be standing in front of him.

“So,” Not!Kevin repeats. He rocks back on his heels and sticks his hands in the front pockets of his ridiculously tight white jeans. Mike is having a hard time deciding if the pants are more ridiculous because they are so tight (not likely giving the rest of the Decaydance crew) or because they are so white.

Mike finally decides on the latter. Because nothing should be that clean this far into a tour.

“Your pants are disturbingly white, young Jonas,” Bill intones as he leans over Mike’s shoulder to peer intently at said pants. Bill starts to topple sideways, and Mike lazily reaches up to push Bill back on his feet. As funny as it is seeing Bill fall flat on his face, they do have a show to put on in a few hours. The hilarity isn’t worth listening to Tony shout at him.

Not!Kevin blinks at Bill. “We did laundry at the last hotel stop.”

“Industrious of you, young Jonas,” Bill agrees. He pokes at Mike’s shoulder. “We should have thought of that.” He nods to himself.

Mike rolls his eyes. Bill always takes out his crazy-freak!persona when there are new people around. As hilarious as that can be, after a month and a half of touring, the Jonas Brothers are hardly new people and, frankly, the act does get a tad bit annoying. And Bill has a tendency to take the act too far. “You come over to share your bleaching secrets, kid? Because you really shouldn’t feed the lions at the zoo.”

“No. The secrets of awesomely not tie-dyed laundry are only known to our mother and Nick,” Joe says. “I came over to tell you, against every one of Nick’s protests, that Kevin thinks you’re hot.” He pulls a hand out of his white jeans to gesture at them.

I love both of these great tastes, and yet, have not tasted them together! It's a tragedy.

I totally missed that- I'll have to go look for it!

I'll check it out. And I've never said that about anything involving a Jonas brother before.
