Summary
He and Adam had not left off on a good note. In fact, they had left off on the worst note possible.
The last time he saw Adam was still vivid red in John’s mind. The screaming match. The glass shattering. Driving to Shaun’s house in the rain with tears streaking his face. Waking up the next morning to dozens of missed calls from Adam. Ignoring every single one.
No, Adam Lazzara was not dead. And he was standing near the back of the bar, staring directly at John. -

Summary
Ocean for days on all sides, clouds edged in the brightest of pinks, no sound but the waves and the morning call of the gull who lives in the foremast. It’s a communion he has with the sea, one Michel at least understands, or so her eyes say as she approaches.
A Fuckin Whatever threesome fic that also happens to be a sequel to The Timberwolf and the Terror.

Summary
In 1714, siblings John and Michel Nolan are officers on the pirate ship Timberwolf, and Adam Lazzara is the handsome young shipbuilder's apprentice who stowed away. In 1722, the Timberwolf (captained by Adam) and the Terror (by John and Michel) are rival pirate ships, the former with success and the latter with a deep-set grudge. When a freak storm forces the enemies to work together, they have to learn how to trust each other again, while a series of flashbacks reveals the history that tore them apart. Includes featured appearances by MCR as traders in magical curiosities, John O'theMaine as a hapless naval nepo baby, and Anthony Green as quite possibly a sea wizard.

Summary
Again you go from one to other. On the edge of 2006.
(Small blur I wrote in another life, redid the ending. More like a soothing dialogue with a splash of vomit blues.)

Summary
Every little thing reminds John of Adam. Even when he doesn’t see him on the TV screen, the specter of Adam haunts him in every interview he has to give, questions of his past life with the band, and in every line of every song he’s ever written.
Even when he says otherwise.
