Howdy folks! Triple Frontier Fans (TFF) fancast event is about half-way done, but don't worry you still have plenty of time if you wanna join in on the fun! The event doesn't end until the 30th!

If you haven't heard of the event, you can find more about it here!

We're doing a whole event surrounding making fancasts for Triple Frontier; and for those interested there is even a picker wheel with various genres/themes for folks to go with~

-> You can see all of the ones made so far, here!

-> and follow along by tracking the event tag!

the reason: undercover mission

the distraction: one william ironhead miller

his fit: all black. a mesh top, cargo pants that are stretched over his thick thighs and wide calves and the fucking shiniest combat boots to ever exist. tattoos nearly hidden beneath the sheer fabric sleeves. glitter across his broad shoulders.

eyeliner!!!

rings. including nips.

a watch because it's fucking Will and he's got a job to do

the pairing: ironfishhhhhhhhhhh

help

Lol thank you for the ask Cas! :D

Favorite thing about them: I like how capable Frankie is. The way he was so focused while flying that helo *screm* I want him to look at ME like that haha

Least favorite thing about them: because I relate to it SO much and so hard- how much of a pushover Frankie can be

Favorite line: the one where he tells Benjamin not to spend all his money before it’s in his pocket!

brOTP: Fish and Santi :)

OTP: IronFish IRONFISH IronFiiiiiiish!!!!

nOTP: um, i don’t know if I’m allowed to say this with the amount of whump and angst that i write but Frankie x Pain. Just. Let him be soft and at peace pls 😭

Random headcanon: Benny and Fish swap hats sometimes :)

Unpopular opinion: Frankie is more confrontational than we see in the film. He’s just not as quick to outrage or as direct as Ben. He’s the sort to let everything bottle up, he holds a lot of resentment and then it all boils up the surface. I think he inwardly admires the Miller brothers for their way of handling grievances. Benny won’t hesitate however he’s usually always justified when he explodes. Will simmers but still lets his emotions be known. Frankie swings between the two but he’s messier about it.

Song I associate with them: i’m putting two. MONEY & FAME by needtobreathe and Sleep In The Fire by 10 Years

Favorite picture of them:

Anything with ironfish lmao

i drag you back, a sleepyhead

Will stood in his doorway, staring at the man sprawled out on his bed. He was so handsome, even in a dead sleep and drooling all over his pillow. Will knew he probably shouldn’t find the sight so endearing; or at the very least be a little annoyed Ben didn’t warn him that the man was crashing at their place. But he really couldn’t find it in him. YotOTP 2025: bed sharing

read the tags! and remember: don't like don't read~

rating, tags, and more below the cut

In every life time, they're warriors of some kind, fighting for some cause that’s bigger than all of them. In every lifetime, they find each other. There were other constants, too: Will and Ben were always brothers; Tom was always the oldest; they always adored each other, and a million more little things. Things sometimes changed, it was bound to happen from time to time. This cycle, Tom had found Molly, before he reunited with them. Frankie had found someone too. Will had tried, he really had… But in the end, it didn't matter what changed or how much; they all had each other and always would.

 YOTP 25: "You're thinking too much"

summary: rated teen+

It’s slow, deliberate work, as Ben carefully peels the orange, taking most of the pith with it in one go; all done with a surgeons precision, a sniper’s patience, and a soft smile. Ben can't show the men his affections in public or in the light of day; but he can peel oranges for them, and in his mind, it's the same.

relationships:

william "ironhead" miller / santiago "pope" garcia / ben miller / frankie "catfish" morales [OT4]

every combo within, is at minimum implied

it is vague enough that you can probably read the will and ben aspect as romantic or not.

inspired partially by my earlier musings on ben & the fruit sharing scene

I do my best to reply to all comments & i'm open to *constructive* and *well-mannered* criticism

[mibabm] interlude #1

i wanna be the one (you're guiding)

the 'maybe i'll be a better man (by the time you come to your senses)' series is primarily focused on and from the pov of tom "redfly" davis. however these little interludes will be used to peak behind the curtain to whats going on in the background, occasionally. i can't promise they'll happen between every main fics, however, but i do have a few planned! it's important to understand that these are not meant to give big info dumps of stuff happening in the background. but rather better round out series of events, from pov's that redfly would not be privy too. so they may not go into depth into certain things, or pick up in the middle of events, etc.
