Chapter Text
A short summary that I wrote as the very first thing and it surprisingly still fits:
Cyrus is trying to get over his crush on TJ with the help of Iris. TJ is realizing his feelings for Cyrus with the help of Buffy. When TJ finally confesses, it takes Cyrus couple of steps and a look back to realize he might keep his crush and even have a chance of turning it into a relationship. Also discount blond guy and Iris being a motocross queen.
Chapter 1: Set the Scene: This one is for the deep dive into the drama and has all the feels of the Extended AMS3A Promo.
Chapter 2: Cyrus Has A Type: Cyrus gets his own muffin in this one and that’s about all for the happy parts, sorry.
Chapter 3: Friend in Need: Cyrus being a badass – all I have to say for this one.
Chapter 4: Revealing the Secrets with Iris: Who doesn’t like a good Cyrus coming out to Iris, she deserves that canon, their friendship deserves that canon.
Chapter 5: Cyrus’ Masterplan: I wrote this one half asleep/half bus-sick so the words are very spontaneous.
Chapter 6: TJ’s Biggest Fan: It’s the bittersweet lemon boy plot.
Chapter 7: Blond and Flirty: Cyrus meets biker boy (we love alliterations) Bill.
Chapter 8: Lonely Day of TJ Kippen: This is THE angst chapter. But at least Buffy is revealed as the biggest Tyrus shipper.
Chapter 9: Rehearse with Honesty: This chapter changed title so many times and now it fits perfectly.
Chapter 10: Finish the Scene: This is a direct continuation of Chapter 1 and thus get your promo gifs ready to compare the feels.
Chapter 11: Kiss the Scene: If you are one of those people who wants dessert at the beginning of supper this chapter is for you.
