heyy is there any chance youd be willing to recommend some mclennon fics ? i love your characterisation and the way you write so very much & i feel like i’m likely to enjoy fics that you’ve enjoyed. thank you + happy birthday :))

absolutely!! here's a top 5:

Boy, You've Been A Naughty Girl by @scurator paul crossdressing is the most important thing in the entire world. the kind of fic where the sexual tension just leaps out and wraps you up in it. I've read this so many times it's ridiculous

tomorrow, i'll miss you by @pauls1967moustache this one is so gorgeous. the writing, the atmosphere, everything. I love before sunset and it works unbelievably well as a mclennon au

The Birthday Party by @merseydreams I understand that everyone and their mother has already recommended this fic, but consider this: the "there are no time machines" scene makes me cry every single time I re-read it. it's also very funny

Got to Get Down by @eveepe it feels like I should be able to go a single day without thinking about the fic where john goes mental over paul's tiny dick. but no. I'm thinking about this always

To Lead A Better Life by downtothelastdrop there's a beautiful flow to this one, voices that feel very true to john & paul, and (for fans of starving) it's also set in 1966

you can also peruse the mclennon tag in my bookmarks here

1974 in la

We were four guys, that... I met Paul, and said, "Do you wanna join me band?", you know... and then George joined, and then Ringo joined. We were just a band who made it very, very big, that's all.

love when a bunch of new people join a 20+ year old fandom and are like "erm nobodys talking about [issue thats been beaten to death every 6 months for the last two decades]" yeah yeah the issue we all know the issue. think of something new and innovative to say.

we'd do away with pining john/oblivious paul and replace it with pining paul/oblivious john under my regime

i know it's hard to choose from great things

having now reflected on tropes for several days, i've whipped up this poll instead of agonizing over perfecting the categories (so just roll with me here).

“What is up with all these unhinged anons recently” Well I am sorry but there is nothing “unhinged” about calling people out for chasing clout by writing fic just so they can get attention and validation and then having you and all their other friends rec the same authors over and over again, trying to get as many kudos as possible by breaking up their fic into like 20 chapters or adding to the same universe bc people are subscribed already and refusing to read fic by new authors. You just don’t want to admit it bc you’re in their little circle.

lol yeah buddy, you're definitely beating the unhinged allegations with this ask
