Summary
There was a time when they couldn’t get enough of each other; when they would tell each other everything about their lives, only they didn’t need to, with how deeply immersed they were in one another. There was a time when he would’ve known if Paul was in the same city as him.
John sees Paul in the street while he's in Liverpool for a break. It's funny, because neither of them knew the other would be in town. And John can't figure out why that is.

Summary
John Lennon, tired dad, walking disaster, expert at all things inappropriate, is just about desperate enough to take the first job that’ll have him. He doesn’t expect it to land him inside the polished office of Apple Corps, wrangling calendars and crises. And he definitely doesn’t expect his new boss to be bloody millionaire Paul McCartney, charming, infuriating, and far too good at making John forget he’s supposed to be working.
Somehow he ends up as a personal assistant, a job he’s wildly unqualified for, except maybe in sarcasm and showing up late. Between flat whites, childcare, and more longing than he'd ever like to admit, John discovers that working for Paul might be the biggest mess of his life… and somehow, the best thing that’s ever happened to him.
Edit: On hiatus. This work is NOT abandoned.

Summary
When two oblivious teenage boys meet for the very first time in the summer of 1957, a transcending bond to be passed on through decades to come makes its initial formation; a sanctuary, a home, a secret, a storm, a song, and a love to surpass the regular circumstances of time itself; it all starts in a city called Liverpool - but where will it take them from there?

Summary
This is a look at what might have happened to the band, and especially John and Paul, if Paul had come to the conclusion before he met John that he wasn't straight. This fic tells the story of the band with that new context, and therefore it will diverge from the events as we know them.

Summary
On April 28th, 1961, 8:26am Paul McCartney’s alarm goes off.
“Paul was on the precipice of something brilliant, and every nerve in his body could feel it. What was about to take place was something deeply woven into the tapestry of his fate and history. Paul was nothing of the person he once was, and the person he was about to become was just on the horizon.”
Inspired by Groundhog Day and “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles

Summary
Something ticked in Paul’s mind as the familiar words washed through him. When he looked at John, his friend was already looking at him. And suddenly, it all became clear: He remembered having that conversation more than 50 years ago. He remembered it too well.
He had been thinking about it for years, wondering what he should have understood, how he should have reacted. If it was as meaningful as it had felt or if his memory had just romanticized it.
“I don’t think a love like that obeys to any rules,” John went on, unaware of Paul’s agitation. “It’s not something that humans have created, not like a societal thing. It’s deeper than that, and that’s what some people are afraid of I guess, because they can’t control it. Whatever laws they create, they can never control it. A white lad will fall in love with a black girl.” He paused. “A lad with another lad. You know.”
--
Summer 2019, 77-year-old Paul wakes up feeling surprisingly good. One tiny problem: he is back in December 1965.

Summary
"Murdoc looks terrible—even more than usual. He’s disheveled and covered in monitors. Asleep, he looks nearly dead. If this man—this man who bought her a jetpack as a child, and kind of taught her how to drive, and never hesitated to cut down any interviewer who said the slightest thing inappropriate about her—dies after she yelled at him on the phone and abandoned him in jail, Noodle will never forgive him. Or herself."
Shortly after the release of Cracker Island, the band's good times are derailed by a medical mystery. Murdoc has an existential crisis, Noodle takes it upon herself to save her sort-of parental figure, Russel tries to keep the peace...and 2D realizes it's time to adult.

Summary
Everything is intimate when it's new, until words become worn and the body leaves indents for hands like memory foam, marked even in absence. Once 2D shares a drunken night with Murdoc, they spiral into sharing far more than intended, all under the guise of casual sex. It's ironic to call it no strings attached when 2D's being played like a puppet.

Summary
“I think,” Cas grits out, “that the spell requires me to say the truth. I’ve been trying to suppress it with my grace, but it’s… not working.”
“Got it,” Dean says, nodding, because he can work with this. “Yeah. Sure. So give me some truths. Some stupid little ones.”
Cas narrows his eyes. “Such as?”
“Like, I dunno, what’s your favorite color?”
Cas’s face somehow goes stonier. “Green,” he ekes out.
Dean clears his throat. Blinks a few times. “Oh.”
________Or: when Dean and Cas investigate a group of high school students getting mysteriously ill, Cas gets hit with a truth spell.
