It was the weather that brought them back together.

The night started as any other did when they had time off from tour. Drinks, partying, music, and each other.

Is it the end of their friendship or the start of something new?

“Ax?” Jack prodded seconds later, the rush of emotions a sudden dread. “Mm?” “Can you do me a favor?” “Which is?” “Promise me you’ll be safe out there?” “Oh baby,” Alex purred, the vibrations revibrating against Jack’s ear. “I will cause a scene.”

A reimagined version of what happens before Axel’s Last Ride.

Hello!

We just bid goodbye to 2024 and that means the first year of the All Time Low Microfic Challenge is also behind us!

Technically speaking, the challenge will see its first birthday in March 2025, but the collection I set up for it only made sense to keep open for the remainder of the calendar year.

So, I have now closed the 2024 collection, and thought it would be fun to do a little round-up.

From March to December 2024, this is how the first ever All Time Low Microfic Challenge went.

🌟 A total of 49 microfics were submitted by a total of 12 writers.

🌟 Pairings featured included Jalex, Callakarth, Zalex, Merrikat, Rilex, and Alex/Tyler Posey (Poskarth?).

🌟 While the ratings varied across the board, it was most heavily G-rated fics that featured (much to my shock, believe me).

🌟 We also had contributions for some prompt words from a few lovely followers, namely @jackinalex, @neon-danger and @melljunee!

Feel free to tell me your favourite microfics that you read this year in our ask!

Jack and Alex had always been known as “affectionate friends” and that’s how they liked it.

But Jack was starting to feel different.

A crack. A space that shouldn’t exist, yet does. A different dimension. A place where the universe folds in on itself.

“Congratulations, Alex, you’re our winner!”
