  2. Summary

    The Farm Frolics AU (also affectionately known as the Welsh Fuck Cottage AU) is a joint project by bron_yr_aur and LuxeApocalypse. The result of many long, agonized conversations about Jimmy and Robert’s fate and how we could change it in fiction, the series seeks to answer the following questions: what if there was no accident in 1975 and the planned tax exile and ensuing world tour proceeded uninterrupted? What if Jimmy and Robert decided to go all in and shack up together in a love nest in the hills of Wales? Can a dog person and a cat person live together and make it work? What happens when they both become goat people?

    There’ll be fun, frolics, fucking, and farm animals (the latter two NOT at the same time, thank fuck…) Silly adventures, occult mishaps, cuddly domesticity and lots of love. Also a touch of bittersweetness early on, but that doesn’t last long.

    This series is a work forged from our own demented imaginings, and written entirely out of admiration and love. We wish to make it clear that certain tragic events do not happen in this universe, and we will therefore refrain from going into detail regarding the whats, hows and whys, out of respect for the individuals concerned.

    Summary

    1973. Led Zeppelin is huge, Jimmy is making himself scarce, and Robert is keeping himself busy to avoid thinking about it. It doesn't work.

    I've been wanting to do a tribute to my wonderful friend/coauthor LuxeApocalypse (who came up with the title)'s wonderful story, What Is And What Should Never Be (specifically the 1973 chapter) for a long, long time, but never felt like I had anything to add! Until now! My spin is supposed to be a bit dry and melancholic, retaining the second-person tense that I love so much in WIAWSNB, with added sex with strangers (and friends).

    Fantabulous, carnal, dreamlike like a hazy Los Angeles afternoon in the Seventies

    Summary

    «In the hotel room next to mine, Jimmy and Jackie were having a very hot romance. I guess what he was doing in that hotel room was getting interesting.»
    «I said, “What happened to you?” He said, “Jackie invited me to spend some time with her. And she restrained me.” He wouldn’t answer, but whatever it was, it appeared that he’d been held against his wishes.»

    Jimmy Page as the boy-toy captive of Jackie DeShannon.

    Summary

    You know exactly what he is, of course. You know it because the two of you have met. Six years back, when you’d spent a couple of months following the band around, and looked a lot different. You crossed paths in the Bay Area, at a club after a show at Berkeley—or, more accurately, he took a liking to you from afar, and had one of his goons fetch you and bring you over to him. Fast-forward to 1975. You did not go out tonight expecting to find Jimmy Page in Studio One of all places. Not because you don’t know he’s a flamer—let’s be clear about that—just because Zeppelin’s supposed to be playing shows in the Midwest right now. But here he is, smack dab in the middle of a gay club, pretending to neither be who he is, nor to know where he is. He glances at you again; oh, he definitely thinks you’re cute. Knowing him, though, there’s no way he’s going to approach you in a million years.

    What do you have to lose? Not your dignity—that’s his thing. Repugnant as he is, he sure is pretty. You straighten up, smooth your hair back, and start making your way across the room while he furiously reverts his gaze to his beer bottle and picks at the label.
