    Summary

    "I want to go find me real dad," said John.
    Paul quite nearly choked on his toast. The keys kept twirling.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Paul McCartney turned seventeen years old in the summer of 1992, and he only wanted two things out of the holiday: to play music, and to laze about, at least until he had to go to work.

    This plan worked out excellently for him until the first day of July when John Lennon turned up on his doorstep. Holding the set of keys to a brand-new motorbike, and with the intent to track down his long-lost biological father. After a bit of resistance, Paul went along. Because how could he not?

    Thus began their thirty-day road trip across Great Britain: a journey that changed not only Paul’s perception of the world at large but his perception of himself and the people he thought he knew inside and out.

    Summary

    “The girls have started calling Paul daddy, Eppy, what do you think of that?” John asks, cutting Brian off in that way he does, and it’s instant, the way Brian stumbles, blinks, flushes pink down his neck and across the long point of his nose. George presses his legs together, swallows, briefly contemplating tossing himself out the window to be pulled apart by the sea of girls outside, when Brian clears his throat.

    “Yes, well, Paul’s always been popular with the girls,” he says, then frowns over at George. “Haven’t you washed up yet?”

    Summary

    Elton remembered, vividly, the last time he'd seen John and Paul together, an unassailable little bubble of two in the corner of Elton's New York hotel room. Paul had been off his face then, too, but not like this. 

    "I've spoken to Yoko," Paul admitted, after a minute. "Now I've come to speak to you." 

    "What about?" Elton said politely, pretending not to know.

    Or: in 1981 or thereabouts, Paul and Elton almost talk hard truths about John Lennon, but not quite.

    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
