Summary
"He found himself thinking about one of the last proper conversations he could remember having with his mum. Her face drawn and pale, eyes tired, as she showed him diagrams from one of her midwife books, explained that he wasn’t like regular boys. He’d always have to be careful, she’d said, stay away from other boys. He’d been mortified and strangely offended because of course Mike wouldn’t be getting a similar talking to. Why did he have to sit there and be humiliated, treated like less of a boy because of something he couldn’t control and hadn’t chosen for himself."
Or, that inevitable Paul is pregnant fic I've been tip-toeing around for a while now and been threatening to write for ages!

Summary
“But they haven’t actually spoken about it. Paul hasn’t actually said I’m coming to New York. I’m coming to see you. Meet me at the usual place.”
Or, my take on an imagined 1979 Montauk motel reunion between two long estranged fiancees.

Summary
“I want to see,” George confesses, voice going slightly breathless now, mouth dry. “I want to see what he did.”
“George,” Paul gasps, low and like he’s shocked.
Because there’s always been a sort of separation of church and state, if you will. For years now. George is church. John is state. And ne’er the twain shall meet.
__
Or, George and Paul sleeping together in 1968, and the conversation that ensued, permanently changed the trajectory of the Beatles. But what happens when the (still together) Beatles decide to go on tour in 1974 and John and George have to navigate the reality of having to share Paul with each other?

Treat me like you did the night before?
Or, the shameless sequel to my very shameless art school John draws Paul like one of his French girls fic. They're young and dumb and extremely in love, and it's the morning after the night before. There is no more plot than that.

Summary
John kisses Paul in his kitchen one day, and feels awful about it shortly thereafter. But Paul is a tough habit to kick – things end up taking an interesting turn.
Nervously, Paul asks, “You haven’t been thinking about it?”
The simmering, guilty unease following him around, the sleepless nights; it’s probably not quite the same as what Paul’s referring to. He probably means something closer to the dreams he’s been having, the hot flashes of memory and the lurid fantasies that well up to distract him when he needs it least.
Well, it doesn’t matter what he means, either way. John is intimately familiar with the full range of thoughts on Paul.

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.)
