random thought of the day: i was listening to lisa by makeout (rejects playlist my beloved) and got the vision of the rejects performing at at tango's bar, and when the part at 2:27 happens jimmy does it and tango has to stay behind the bar because no one can know that he's hard
(i'm v tired today so that's my excuse if this sounds weird)
MARS!!!
This is canon actually <3
OKAY SO. A bit of OOS lore because fuck it, I'm so slow at writing. BUT, scarian complicated situation with lots of miscommunication and uh ohs. Lisa is about scar lol. Joel convinces Grian to write out his feels journal style and hes so pissed about their recent issue that its like, mega emo. Jimmy reads it, tries to be supportive, fails, then says "hey this could be a good song though." he then proceeds to make them make it into a song.
EITHER WAY. yeah, its them both making fun of Grian and his constant issues with Scar, and them having messing around for giggles.
I think that Lisa is such a good song. Makeout is such an underground band some how? theres lore to how I know them but I cannot share it or I will get eaten by Them. I love the silly moan at 2:27, and I think Tango would very much have a moment about it the first few times. Then he starts rating the moans and telling Jimmy if they sound real enough.
I cannot stress this enough yall. This is such a smut heavy au and the smut has both nothing and everything to do with the plot. Do I have to write the smut? no probably not. but I want to show Jimmy's progression with his self confidence and also OOS is such a sticky au (under all the serious queer themes and coming age bullshit I come up with) that I don't think I could get away without the smut anymore. you gotta see baby gay Jimmy learn how to be a freak in real time, trust me it's actually a part of his coming out process, no don't ask me how I did that, and also no don't ask me what that has to do with John Lennon, it just does.
Yes....aough thank you Mars I missed silly asks like this. come back to my inbox yall I miss you and I'll give you all kisses on the head for it. mwah
