Bandom Summer Blowout 2025: "watch us until we blur" by akaparalian, with art by Chiena!

Patrick has never understood why the Run is mandatory for omegas; it’s stupid. It’s not like forcing him to Run is going to make it any more likely for an alpha to take an interest. All that’s going to happen is Patrick’s going to be fucking miserable in the woods for two days, sleeping on the cold ground and eating trail mix, and at the end of it he’ll be tired and probably sunburned and covered in bug bites and decidedly not claimed by any fucking alpha.

Bandom Summer Blowout 2025: "Mini's Bedtime Story" by Chiena, with companion fic "Where The Crow Feeds" by buzzkill_after_dark!

What happens in Korse's secret basement, stays in Korse's secret basement (until it does not).

Bandom Summer Blowout 2025: Tuck(er) Everlasting by turnpike_divides, with mix by AidenPlays!

If it were up to Tucker, Geoff would never have to worry about when he might find the smaller boy next. If it were up to Tucker, he would take Geoff home with him and introduce him to his friends and tell him everything that he had never – could never – tell anyone. But it wasn’t just Tucker’s life he had to worry about, and although he felt that, even so soon, Geoff may very well be one of them, he had to protect the ones he loved. So, he smiled at Geoff as he whispered, “Come find me,” in the other boy’s ear, before placing the gentlest of kisses against his lips. -------- Geoff moves to New Brunswick to attend Rutgers University, and crashes (quite literally) into a gorgeous boy with a charming smile at a basement show. However, he soon discovers that this boy is hiding a lot more than your average twenty year old, and Geoff is caught in between his growing feelings and real life. A story of life, love, and what happens when you drink the New Jersey water.

Bandom Summer Blowout 2025: "Stardust" by murd3rsc3n3, with mix by namupokemanchan!

“You know Bowie?” Gerard began. “He said we’re all made of stardust. Like, we’re tiny pieces of something huge. Even when everything’s shit, there’s still something magical in all of us.” “That’s kind of dumb,” Frank said lazily. “But it’s nice, I guess.” “It’s not dumb,” Gerard protested. “It means we can never really fall apart. You and me, we’re stardust.” Sure, you had to be strong to use heroin. But right now? Gerard felt invincible. Frank is broken, running from a sour home life of looming threats and danger disguised as parental figures. Gerard is fed up with conforming to his middle-class roots. Together, they leave it all behind, flying high on the adrenaline from their escape. But when the rush fades and the stardust settles, they are faced with a terrible reality. No one can fly forever. Eventually, you need to come down.

I decided to participate in @bandomsummer this year, so here's what I drew for @buildarocketboys's fic!

The fic is super cute and I loved reading it, so check it out! The first piece I did is Pete attempting to do the smoulder, and the second is what Patrick might look like in the AU.
