Rowan Omondi Speedruns A Sexuality Crisis In Six Easy Steps by burntoutandproud
Fandoms: I Was Born for This - Alice Oseman
09 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Okay, so, full disclaimer, Rowan has never been all too attached to his sexuality. He’d grown up in a pretty progressive household, best friends with the gayest boy he could find, his sister had painted his nails and dressed him up in tutus and he’d never felt the need to have a crisis about it. He liked girls. He liked dresses. The two things could coincide, no problem.
If he’d had the slightest desire to bat for his own team, wouldn’t he have figured that out by now?

Summary
"Jimmy grins and makes room on half of the stool for Lister to join him. It’s tiny, so they’d never be able to sit like this for more than a couple of minutes. They really can’t avoid the way their thighs are pressed together, and, yeah, that’s totally normal. That’s fine. Jimmy is very warm. Lister’s heart pounds steadily in his chest.
Casual as anything, willing his hands not to shake, Lister wraps his fingers gently over Jimmy’s knuckles. His hands are so warm. Lister’s hands are bigger than Jimmy’s, longer and skinnier.
They fit nicely together, he thinks."
_________________________________
It's Year 10. Jimmy is god-fucking-awful at the drums. Lister has recently developed a god-fucking-awful crush on Jimmy. Whatever will they do!

5 times people sang "Happy Birthday" to Lister, and the 1 time he actually asked them to.
(Dedicated to tumbler-nerd13: "Can someone PLEASE write a fanfic of Lister lying awake on the night before his eighteenth birthday being shit scared of the whole new wave of people who are going to sexualize him?!!?!")

Summary
On typical Tuesday nights, Jimmy and Lister find themselves in either of their rooms, with a shitty romcom playing on TV until they fall asleep. Typical Tuesday nights do not end with Lister on his knees, giving head like his life depends on it, but here is.

Summary
The burning sensation that spread through his body. The feeling that nothing would ever be okay again until he was half a bottle in and could barely stand. The way his entire body would tense for hours and he wouldn't know if he was hungry or if he was thirsty until he was sick from neglecting those needs.
It's cold on the bathroom floor, or at least he thinks it is. His arms are covered in goosebumps but his shirt is drenched in sweat and tears.
He can't do this.

Summary
Lister leaned back against the door, cool against his feverishly hot skin, and closed his eyes. “I don't know,” he groaned. “I don't know what this is, I don't know what we're doing, I just know that I love you like I’ve always loved you, but now there’s–this.” He gestured vaguely. Jimmy tried to smile at him, but it didn’t reach his eyes. “And also, you're hot.”
(Basically, my take on early stages Bicci. Loosely inspired by Charli xcx’s Talk talk and a few of Alice Oseman’s Tumblr posts where they mentioned that Bicci’s relationship would probably be very messy at the start (and potentially would continue to be messy until the end). They really, genuinely love each other, guys! They're just also a mess.)

Summary
“Testosterone makes you fucking horny, man.”
Years of media training allow Lister’s voice to remain steady. “Oh yeah?”
AKA: The Jimmy Kaga-Ricci x Lister Bird messy hookup fic we've all been waiting for. The tamest smut you can imagine with a lot of feelings attached. If you know me IRL... no you don't.

Summary
Lister deserved so much better. After everything he had been through, after being sexualised for years, is that all Jimmy can offer? More no-strings-attached sex followed by the silent treatment for no reason? It wasn’t fair, so if Jimmy was going to be selfish and keep him closer than he arguably should, well maybe it was about time to give something back. Right? “Fuck it!”
JKR says trans rights @JimKR
so glad everyone enjoyed the show!! this tour has been amazing!!! @LisBird is my boyfriend---
Lister and Jimmy are messy friends with benefits who fight constantly. Nobody is enjoying themselves. -

title from (Comfort Crowd) by Conan Gray.
Rowan struggles to deal with everything (including himself) not being perfect and going exactly how he wants. No one can sleep. Rowan and Lister best friends time (read: they start to talk to each other about shit and act like friends instead of bandmates who are technically friends but have an odd relationship due to...you know, so many things). The Ark gets tattoos on a whim. -

Summary
If you asked Jimmy what he was thinking in the moment, he’d say that the heat got to him.
He is a professional. He has undergone extensive media training since childhood. He does not make impulse-driven, risky decisions- well, not publicly, at least. He does not kiss Lister Bird onstage in front of thousands (actually millions, counting live streamers) of people.
...But listen.

Summary
Lister’s anxiety spiked to a new level. He hadn’t felt this nervous since he was a kid, since before he started drinking. He was just going to see Rowan and Jimmy, what did he have to be nervous about?
Jimmy. The voice in his head interjected.
