Summary
It was odd: in all the times he’d had friends over before, it’d never felt so important to get everything right. You weren’t supposed to care this much about being a good host when you were fifteen, he thought. It was the sort of thing that only mattered once you got older.
(Or: the mortifying ordeal of having someone you like over to your house.)

Summary
A little remix of this kinkmeme prompt:
Paul wakes up in the hospital after his "crash" in 66, high on painkillers. John is sitting next to him. Paul, who is completely out of it, accidentally admits he's attracted to john
But instead of painkillers, Paul wakes up with temporary amnesia. The only thing he can remember is that he and John are in love. Unfortunately, John doesn't agree.

Right so this all got started because of that one infamous tumblr post regarding the Grinch and Tony the Tiger's tragic break up: www.reddit.com/r/tumblr/comments/k51rck/so_gaud_is_making_a_tony_the_tigergrinch_fix_fic/
Anyways, I hope the existence of this fic bothers you on a level you struggle to articulate to your loved ones and/or therapist :)

He’d had the idea to write to John for weeks now, but hadn’t acted on it because, well, it was daft. He knew it was daft. It was immature, manipulative and wrong.

Summary
During the Lost Weekend, John decides to start rumours that he's queer. Paul reacts.
Written for the kinkmeme prompt:
"I was trying to put it 'round that I was gay, you know–I thought that would throw them off–dancing at all the gay clubs in Los Angeles, flirting with the boys...but it never got off the ground."
John Lennon interview with Lisa Robinson for Hit Parader, 1975.
I want a fic showing what this would look like. Doesn't matter if he's just pretending or if it's real, or maybe he doesn't even know himself. Enough people think it's real for it to "get off the ground." How do his friends react? How does Paul react? Doesn't have to be endgame John/Paul, but I'd like that. Mostly I want to see John dancing and flirting in gay clubs. (Maybe Elton's showing him around at first?)

Summary
This is a look at what might have happened to the band, and especially John and Paul, if Paul had come to the conclusion before he met John that he wasn't straight. This fic tells the story of the band with that new context, and therefore it will diverge from the events as we know them.

Summary
Kept boy John Lennon is feeling stuck. His art is going nowhere, and he has the sinking feeling his sugar daddy is losing interest in him. To make matters worse, it seems all of London is abuzz with talk of the new boy on the scene. Robert Fraser's new pet is pretty, talented, spoiled, and infuriating.
John can't stop thinking about him.

The Ian Leslie book infuriated me so much I thought I’d dig out this rant I wrote for a magazine in 2022 about why the Beatles are a lesbian friendship group and can only be understood as such, and why men don’t ever get them.
