THINGS THAT MAKE ME RIDICULOUSLY HAPPY

[justtothesea]

I meant to post this like yesterday or something but I was busy going "JKGFDJHJGFHJK" all over the internet, so.

First off, GET FAMILIAR:

;____________________; MY HEART. WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO IT. PETE STOP SALUTING AT ME, GO SWIM TO PATRICK. IDEC ABOUT THE BAD GRAPHICS.

Small, unrelated note: I am not seeing anyone online IS IT BECAUSE IT'S FRIDAY AND YOU ALL HAVE LIVES? IF IT IS THEN STOP THAT RIGHT NOW AND COME BACK TO ME.

THE VIDEO.


Okay, so, first off- PATRICK'S LITTLE SEAGULL FRIEND. Ugh, you guys I died so many times and I probably made little, pathetic noises the first time I watched it because !!!!!!

I don't even know where to start (because no, I have not even begun yet). It's. I cried. But okay, yeah, I'm a pussy over lesser things. But still.


I'm glad that I wasn't the only one who thought Pete was the seagull the whole time, right up until they showed Pete- but this is where the theories come in.

So far I've had people tell me that they think:

a) Pete is the seagull
b) Pete is a ghost
c) Pete and the boat symbolizes the ~media and that the seagull is the real Pete who is in fact an injured little creature that Patrick nurses back to health and is his BFFL
d) (my sister thinks this one as well) that Pete's spirit was the seagull--ghost trip type thing--and that that was him as a ghost going down with the ship

THOUGHTS? Tell me them.


The funny thing is that I've watched it like 50 times just today, and it still doesn't feel like a goodbye to me. It feels like a "what comes next" not an ending.

What's even funnier, though, is that it's inspired me to write and draw again :D and not even "what a catch" fic, but like, I'm finishing some WIPs I've had lying around, and I actually picked up a pencil last night and drew (stuff that I'll never post since it was mainly Patrick and the maybe-Pete!seagull and it's all shitty) so only good things - for me, anyway - came of this :D

So you guys, hey, tell me what you thought about the video, whether it's theories or CAPSLOCKING FLAILS I'm down for whatever, what do you think Pete wasss, why was he so happy going down with the ship, ask me to write you comment!fic about maybe-Pete!seagull and Patrick and I will, but be kind of specific with what you want?, did you force anyone in your family to watch it like I did?

Oh and also:

I'LL TAKE "THINGS I LOVE" FOR 500 KTHX.



Pete's tweet:


I'm pretty sure someone told me a story about Tesla and his pigeon when I was in primary school... or maybe we studied the guy, who knows, I was 7.

According to John J. O'Neill, author of Prodigal Genius, the Life of Nikola Tesla, Tesla told him this story in the presence of William L. Laurence, the New York Times science writer.

Tesla had been feeding pigeons for years. Among them, there was a very beautiful female white pigeon with light gray tips on its wings that seemed to follow him everywhere. A great deal of rapport developed between them. As Tesla confessed, he loved that pigeon: "Yes, I loved that pigeon, I loved her as a man loves a woman, and she loved me." If the pigeon became ill, he would nurse her back to health and as long as she needed him and he could have her, nothing else mattered and there was purpose in his life.

One night as he was lying in bed, she flew in through the window and he knew right away that she had something important to tell him: she was dying. "And then, as I got her message, there came a light from her eyes - powerful beams of light". "...Yes," "...it was a real light, a powerful, dazzling, blinding light, a light more intense than I had ever produced by the most powerful lamps in my laboratory."

Tesla admitted to O'Neill that when that particular pigeon died, something went out of his life. Before that time, he could complete the most ambitious programs he could ever dream of but after the pigeon flew into the beyond, he knew his life's work was done for good.

So, what are your thoughts on Petegull now?

Comments

I adored the video more than I can possibly say! Definitely their best work yet, and DAMN PATRICK LOOKS GOOD IN NAUTICAL ATTIRE.

Not sure what to make about the whole Pete-going-down-with-the-ship thing at the end, but I totally felt like the seagull was Pete. Because, as you say, the seagull is injured and Patrick nurses it back to health, and also because Patrick is drifting and lonely before the seagull and becomes more confident and purposeful and makes beautiful music once he has the seagull for a friend.

I also completely agree that the video doesn't feel like the end of anything. It's the story of a band growing up and looking forward to the next stage of their careers.

My one thought about Pete going down with the ship is that it represents some aspect of Pete-of-the-past that he wants to let go of. Maybe the destructive parts of himself. He'd rather be the seagull, healed and whole and free and Patrick's BFF! :)

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

DOESN'T HE THOUGH.

I love all the things you said, you put it perfectly ♥ The seagull felt so symbolic of Pete to me, hell the entire video felt symbolic of their friendship and their personal lives and, weirdly, more about Pete than it did about Patrick. I don't even know how I spun that one.

I think the thing that really throws me off is that they're partying in the end, which is what lead to the Pete-already-being-dead theory because why would they just suddenly party when Pete's still on the ship? Also there was that coffin, but I think that might've had more to do with the "Arms Race" video.

I lol'd but I also loved that there were fangirls on the ship, and that they sort of quietly acknowledged that that's their fanbase and didn't just get some big brawny metal guys for their video. They accept it... MCR not so much.

[hybiscus.livejournal.com]

so much love for that video ♥♥♥
and for the seagull as well,lol XD i love it: i love how it drinks from the mug and patrick laughs,i love how patrick is like taling to it (02:25,more or less) and how it is impassive when the antlers pass in front of it XD
about the "pete=seagull?" thing,i'm not sure he's the bird,because patrick frees it after pete salutes,and maybe they have two different meanings - but i'm stupid,so i don't even know what i'm saying .___.
i like what scribblinlenore said about it: My one thought about Pete going down with the ship is that it represents some aspect of Pete-of-the-past that he wants to let go of. Maybe the destructive parts of himself. He'd rather be the seagull, healed and whole and free and Patrick's BFF! :)
i find very romantic patrick playing the piano :D (even if i don't like this sort of sappy stuff)

this video inspired me as well,i took a couple of screencaps that i want to try to draw :)

i don't understand why some people (i'm talking about what i read somewhere) was so against this video because this isn't the best song out of the album :/ just because they didn't like it,it doesn't mean they can't make a good video for it :)

okay,i shut up,it's better xD

[hybiscus.livejournal.com]

er,i meant "talking" to it ^^;

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Is it weird that I just see it as a very romantic video in general ._.? It's a love sooong to their friendship.

It's just a theory, I think it feels even more like Pete's the seagull in the edit they actually meant to release where he's not in it at all. That and his reference to Tesla (the inventor dude that fell in love with the white pigeon) I think that kind of validates it more.

That's possibly just because the song meant a lot to a lot of people and they didn't want the video not to do the song justice--that's what I've heard from some people anyway *g*

[hybiscus.livejournal.com]

yeah,it's a pretty symbolic video :D and now that it's been edited,without the scene of pete saluting,it's more as if he's really the seagull,friend of patrick :)

the few things i read were simply against the song itself,because they didn't like it :B

[hybiscus.livejournal.com]

and

♥

for the gif ♥♥♥

[shadow-hive.livejournal.com]

I've skimmed though it on mute *shall watch properly soon*Patrick's adorable and yay Spencer!

Yay for inspiration!

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

It's the beeeest I love it ♥

I'm so happy I can look at my WIPs and not make "D:" faces!

[shadow-hive.livejournal.com]

And as I go to see, it no longer works:(

Yay! *has had that trouble wiyth mine so often just does standalones*

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

D: well it told me it got blocked from the UK but I ~disputed copyright, so it should play now :D?

\o/ i like writing long oneshots

[shadow-hive.livejournal.com]

Stupid videos are stupids! *shall try soon*

Me too, though I mostly just write pornnnn. Like the one I'm trying to do now

[losingmy-sanity.livejournal.com]

oooh

i wish i had access to something better than dial up, the videos won't load Dx

and i'm online, where are you?

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

DDD: sucks dude, I love this video &them;

I went to bed, and now I am online >:)

[thebrokenprince.livejournal.com]

first off, PETE'S FACE AS HE'S GOING DOWN LEGIT MADE ME CRY. like the expression on his face was what got me going. i could definitely see a correlary between pete and the seagull, especially given all the taking care of pete i think patrick does (or used to do) and the whole, pete writes the words and patrick puts them together thing. my fiancee started crying as soon as he befriended the seagull (which might mean something significant and might just mean she's more of a pussy than i am).

anyhow, pete's face as he was going down said to me, "i'm going down with my ship, and i don't regret a fucking thing. it was an honor to sail with you." tbh the first parallel i made was with pete's death. he'll go out smiling and laughing, telling everyone "hey, it's okay. i'm gonna be fine, and i did what i needed to do here. you can cry if you need to, but not too long, okay?" and people will move on the best they can, and pretty soon they'll be partying again, like he would have wanted for them, and he'll see from far away, and be happy.

oh hell. now i've made myself cry thinking about pete's death. D:

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

PETE'S LITTLE FACE ;__;

Dude, you started me up again now. Pete. I think it's even more possible that he's the seagull with the other edit of the video, where he's not even in it.

But in the first version, I thought his going down with the ship might've also been some form of loyalty to the band, like, this is it for him, he's not going to quit it or start another one in ten years, whether the ship sinks or sails he's sticking with it. Yeah idk but that kind of made me even sadder about it.

&THEM;

[kittygrenade.livejournal.com]

In they edit they wanted, Pete is not even in it...at all.

Anyway, Patrick. ♥


(off topic but one of the thoughts that crossed my head was the bit from a promo video Charlie the Unicorn did for YouTube Live)

Pete has to be the seagull.
It is obivious that Pete is the segull.
The only way for it to be more obivious that Pete is the segull is if they slapped a little swoosh-y black wig on its head and scribbled NMBC tattoos in its wings. .

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

Ikr, at first I was like ";____; Pete just coz the greenscreen job was shitty doesn't mean I don't want you in it at aaall" but then I was like "... but this means he is obviously the Petegull!"


(omg that would mean evil giant Petegulls)

[kittygrenade.livejournal.com]

Maybe he is a shapeshifter! He has probably been a seagull for so long he forgot how to turn back!



(they are jealous they didn't get stuck in rope on Patrick's sooner)

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

I don't think my brain could handle a shapeshifter Petegull. It would be too much of a good thing. BECAUSE THEN I WOULD GO TO THE BEACH AND BE ASSUMING ALL SEAGULLS MIGHT BE PETEGULLS AND IDK ;___;

[kittygrenade.livejournal.com]

IT IS TO LATE NOW. THE IDEA OF PETE SHAPESHIFTING IN A PETEGULL IS IN YOUR HEAD.
NOW YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF GOING TO THE BEACH AND TRYING TO CATCH ONE, SLAP A HOODIE ON IT, AND A TINY BLAC SWOOSHY EMO WIG.

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

;_____; OH, ONE TIME AT THIS HOLIDAY PLACE THERE WAS THIS SEAGULL THAT HAD HIS HEAD HUNCHED AND WAS ALL GRUMPY AND HE HAD LIKE THIS SPECIAL SPOT HE LIKED TO STAND ON NEAR THE LAKE, AND WHEN OTHER BIRDS TRIED TO TAKE HIS SPOT HE WOULD SQWAUK AT THEM AND BACK THEM UP AND I CALLED HIM PATRICK. HE SCARED OFF PELICANS TOO.

UM. BUT NOW I WILL ONLY SEE PETEGULLS WITH EMO WIGS OMG.

[kittygrenade.livejournal.com]

NOW I HAVE THE IMAGINE OF THAT SEAGULL WEARING THE TRENCH COAT PATRICK WORE IN THE BLENDER SHOOT. OMG!

MY WORK HERE IS DONE!

[rockerelly.livejournal.com]

So this was legit the first time I'd ever heard about this, and omfg theeeeemmmmmmm. ;___; I WAS GOING TO SLEEP TONIGHT. THANKS FOB. And what's all this nonsense about 'this is the end'? As I was watching him fish up the things (OMFG THE DEER BOY. HIS SKULL WAS ATTACHED TO THAT. OMFG. D: D:D: RIP deer boy. ;___;) I felt like, IDK, like they'd been trashed and he was bringing them back, or something? FALL OUT BOY WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU, PSTUMP, GET USED TO IT.

On the subject of Patrick: PLEASE ALWAYS WEAR NAUTICAL CLOTHES. PLEASE. OR NOT, my heart may not be able to take it. Patriiiiick. ;___; I seriously have such an attraction to things with boats and things with Patricks and things with sideburns and things with sea captains, and what do you give me, PStump? YOU GIVE ME ALL OF THOSE THINGS IN A FORMAT THAT I CAN WATCH IT FOREVER. THANK YOU. ;____; It's like he knows my thoughts. Or something. PATRICK STUMP GTFO MY HEAD.

Logically thinking, since this IS a FOB vid, I think that this was probably some thumbing the nose at the media deal more than any sort of anything else. PETE WENTZ WILL GO DOWN EAGERLY AND SMILING NOW LEAVE HIS BAND ALONE PLZKTHXBYGTFO.

Not-logically speaking - THE SEAGULL IS PETE and he ~summoned Patrick to save the band. He would take the fall for them and 'go down with the ship', so to speak, if that came down to it, but FOB would be able to carry on because of Patrick? Or something? IDK. PETE WENTZ STOP BEING A MARTYR AND ADORABLE AND IN LOVE WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND, IT MAKES IT HARD TO THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH I DON'T CARE FOR YOU. ;___;

Also now I'm confused. It kind of sounds like Patrick is referring to himself as Donnie, but I thought that was Andy? ARGH FOB STOP MESSING WITH MY HEAD. ;___;

And now I'm going to pull up all of my ~ghost knowledge and say this: people have been known to see 'ghosts' of people who are still alive, sometimes when the person they are seeing is about to die but needs to relay a message still. Just something to think about...maybe
(oh god, Pete Wentz I don't even care about you that much, why is the thought of you dying making me sob like a little baby? ;____;)

UUUUGGGGHHHH, tell me I don't want to write all of the seafaring fic in the world where Patrick befriends tiny hurt creatures and makes them ~better. OH MY GOD I DIDN'T EVEN TALK ABOUT THE SEAGULL AND HOW MUCH I WANTED TO HUG PATRICK FOR THAT AND HOW I'M SERIOUSLY CRYING OVER A SEAGULL THAT IS MAYBE A METAPHOR FOR THE WENTZ AND IT'S LITTLE HEAD IN THE COFFEE AND ;__________________; Why do you do this to me, FOB. I WANTED TO SLEEP.

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

DUDE WHERE WERE YOU THAT YOU MISSED IT??? HOOOOW. Ugh uuuugh I want so much fic from this video and Patrick out at sea and the Petegull and oh my god I'm dying, FOB have finally killed me, what is thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis (and now I have to listen to that song now...)

YOU WERE WARNED WITH FOBTRAIL. You know, when you go hunting and you have to shoot deer boy? That fucker's fast, too.

LOGICALLY AND NOT-LOGICALLY SPEAKING I think it's about both things, especially with the new edit of the video where Pete isn't even in it at all. Because he's the Petegull, and the video is in a way addressing the media and something more personal and it is so much about their friendship I can't even. YOU CAN'T NOT CARE FOR PETE. BECAUSE HE MAKES VIDEOS LIKE THIS HAPPENNN. ;_____;

Patrick is Donnie, Pete and Patrick've said a lot of times before-- oh wait, let me find something... okay, at like 2:30:



WAC is pretty much written by Pete from Patrick's point of view, and then at the same time from his own. It's weird idk. I think the song has a lot to do with the time Patrick almost quit the band, so it would be a bit about Pete's view on that, too.

Andy was Donnie for the America's Suitehearts video because they all had to have a character and it seemed more fitting for Patrick to be Dr. Benzedrine for it. Or he's both, who knows. FOB MAKE SENSE kthx.

Yes, see? And I read that sailors believed the albatross to be the soul of a drowned sailor. So. ghost!Petegull \o/

FAVORITE SCENE UGH.


Yes you want to write that. You want to write it so much. LOOK AT THEM.

[rockerelly.livejournal.com]

I was in parts of the internet not previously explored, and as such, did not get the message. IT'S DIFFICULT TO GET A MESSAGE TO A SHIP SAILING AROUND THE JAPANESE SIM SITES WITHOUT YOUR OWN HANDY PETEGULL, OKAY.

But, but still. DEERBOY. That was the only part of it that made me think 'Jesus are they breaking up and trying to leave us with one good memory?' I mean, deer boy is kind of a FOB icon, y'know? AND THEY KILLED HIM. D: D:D: That's it, I'm starting a SAVE THE DEER BOYS foundation.

Pete, Pete I may actually love you now. UGH. My friend's going to give me SO much shit for that. BUT YOU'RE RIGHT, HE MAKES THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPEN. ;___; WENTZ. ALWAYS DOING THINGS TO BREAK MY ICY EXTERIOR.

@Pete Wentz: YOU ARE IN LOVE WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND. PLZ ACCEPT THIS AND LET'S MOVE ON. Although I do demand a leaked sextape at some point.
(Dude, you KNOW Pete would leak the tape himself so the rest of the world would see Patrick the way he sees him. And then Patrick finds out and flips his shit and Pete just sits on the couch and takes it and just keeps smiling because Patrick. Basically I think their arguments consist of yelling, yelling, yelling, Pete smiling because he has a Patrick to argue with, Patrick storming off because PETE DOES NOT TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY, and then Pete moping around for a while until Patrick comes back and is like "whatever" and lets Pete snuggle up to him.

Andy should have been Tiffany Blews. HE HAS THE PRINCESS HAIRS TO BE A PRETTY LADY. I need to find a new target to make fun of other than Andy Hurley because I'm pretty sure he's the only one in FOB who could legit kill me.
Patrick being both Donnie and Benzedrine should not interest me as much as it does...*cocks shotgun and kills the plotbunny lurking at the edge of her thoughts*

ghost!Petegull may be my new favorite thing evar. ;___; IT IS SAD. Patrick came to actually care for the little seagull over the time that they traveled together. He seemed to have human thoughts and would answer Patrick's questions when he asked them. They managed to work out a code of sorts! And now his little gull friend is gone. D:
I want to write about when Patrick comes back and is proclaimed a hero or whatever and he just misses his little gull buddy, and then he comes back, only he turns into this hot dude who likes snuggles and cuddles and kisses and Patrick is a little confused because he thinks he's a ghost? And that's gotta be all different kinds of wrong, but it just feels so right, so whatever. Finally he gives in and, IDK, Pete just hangs around until Patrick dies and they spend eternity sailing the sea together and making beautiful music. Or something. ;__;

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

MAYBE DEER BOY WAS ALREADY DEAD DDDD:? MAYBE THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF DEER BOY. IDK HOW THAT WORKS OUT THOUGH. MAYBE PATRICK TRIES OUT THE ANTLERS AND THEY START TO BECOME A PART OF HIS HEAD? IDK

ME TOO. WTF WENTZ, HOW DID THIS HAPPEN ;__; MY BEST FRIEND SUSPECTS I DON'T HATE HIM, SO I HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT GOING "&PETE;" AROUND HER WHENEVER HE DOES SOMETHING AWESOME. JUST LIKE RIGHT NOW.

!!!!! I'M JUST GONNA GO AHEAD AND BELIEVE THIS IS HOW ALL THEIR ARGUMENTS GO. ABOUT EVERYTHING. Like when Pete will someday inevitably handcuff himself to Patrick so that they are never apart ever and makes Dirty swallow the key (BECAUSE WHOA, WHOA NOBODY WILL WANT TO GET THAT AFTER IT'S COME OUT OF THE OTHER END) Patrick will finally just give up and just get to the cuddling part because this shit was inevitable.

I have had this plotbunny where real life!Pete and Patrick meet Benzedrine and Sandman. IDEK WHERE IT GOES AFTER THAT BUT I WANT IT ;__;

PATRICK DIES WHEN HE'S OLD YES, HE LOOKS OUT OVER HIS BOAT AND TOSSES HIS GLASSES IN THE OCEAN AND JOINS PETE IN THE AFTERLIFE AND--

Oh shit wait, that's the titanic ._.

WHATEVER AND THEN THEY ARE SEAGULLS FOREVER MAKING MUSIC AND THEY JUST HAVE TO WAIT AROUND FOR ANDY AND JOE TO DIE

[rockerelly.livejournal.com]

Oh god plotbunny. D::::::

BUT THEN IT IS DISCOVERED THAT PATRICK CAN'T MAKE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC WITH ONLY ONE HAND (he can make decent music but it's difficult to play the guitar with one hand, especially if there is an adoring Pete hanging off the other) AND SO THEN PETE TRIES ALL THIS STUFF TO GET THEM UNATTACHED AND HE KEEPS MAKING SAD FACES THE ENTIRE TIME AND IS LIKE "I just wanted to be close to you always Patrick ;___;" And Patrick's like "I KNOW PETE, YOU'VE SAID IT A MILLION TIMES" and then they cuddle. And then eventually they have to get, like, Andy to come down with a chain saw. AND THEN THEY EACH GO BACK TO THEIR NORMAL HOUSES BUT PATRICK IS KIND OF LONELY. D: But the Pete crawls into bed next to him and there is cuddling. \o/
Resigned to his fate!Patrick is my favorite. ;____;

I actually kinda wrote something like that. Only it was just Patrick. And he met Sandman. But that would be so cool. OMFG THE VIDEO COMES TO LIFE. EVERYONE IS TURNING INTO CARICATURES OF THEMSELVES THAT SHOW ONLY THEIR UGLIEST PARTS. PETE LOCKS PATRICK IN A CLOSET SO HE WON'T GET TURNED BUT THERE IS NOTHING UGLY ABOUT PATRICK SO HE'S JUST HIMSELF, YANNO?

Haaaa. Oh god a Titanic AU. SELF YOU HAVE YET TO SEE THAT MOVIE, YOU CAN'T WRITE AN AU ABOUT A THING YOU'VE NEVER SEEN. YOU KNOW THIS FROM EXPERIENCE.

And Joe and Andy are just like, chillin' on land, and they keep going "DUDE, WHY ARE THERE SEAGULLS STARING AT US?" because Pete'n'Patrick have landed on their fence or something and just keep staaaaaaring at them and it's kind of creepy, except then it's cute because the Petegull butts his head against Patrick's and Joe goes 'awwww'. And then eventually the two of them warm up to the random stalker!gulls and stuff, and then they die and they're like "HOLY HELL IT WAS CAPTAIN PATRICK AND PETE THE ENTIRE TIME. WTF. WHOA. Nifty."
AND THUS, OLD TIMEY FOB WAS REUNITED.

[josiemus-prime.livejournal.com]

I WANT THAT TO BE A REAL FIC ;________; resigned to his fate!Patrick is my favorite too because that is RL Patrick, I will not be told otherwise.

I know you did, it's kind of why you're to blame for me wanting that 'verse in the first place. Seriously, I would not have even thought about it if it wasn't for you and your whole Patrick/Sandman thing and now I need it ;___;

AND THEN STARTS TURNING INTO SANDMAN AND HE HAS PATRICK IN THIS CLOSET WITH HIM AND... things happen. WANT. WANT RIGHT NOW.

I actually dnw a titanic AU... because that will always end badly, but if it ends with Patrick and Petegull waiting around for Joe and Andy to die so that they can be in a ghost band then I'm all for it :D

[rockerelly.livejournal.com]

It's kind of obvious. AT FIRST PATRICK RESISTED, but now he knows that Pete will always be this cuddlemonster attacking him at three AM going "BABY'S CRYING WIFE IS ASLEEP WANT A HUG D:" and Patrick has to get up and go give him a hug. ASHLEE IS NO LONGER SURPRISED - if she was ever surprised at all - TO FIND PATRICK FAST ASLEEP ON THE COUCH SNUGLING WITH HER HUSBAND, Bronx sitting on his chest and playing with his hat and Pete just grinning all like "HI ASH CAN WE HAVE PANCAKES? PATRICK LIKES HIS WITH STRAWBERRY SYRUP, DON'T FORGET. :D"

D::: I'm sorry! Um...hm...

"Patrick. Patrick wake up, there's a thing happening."

Patrick sighed and rolled out of his bunk, and found himself staring at a pair of canary yellow shoes. He followed them up canary-yellow legs to a canary-yellow jacket, and then to a snow-white face. He blinked. That was definitely him in his stupid Benzedrine costume, but...he was pretty sure he was right there, not being Benzedrine.

Over Benzedrine's shoulder appeared Sandman, happily chomping on a Fruit Rollup. Patrick looked over his shoulder to find Pete still standing behind him, looking confused and a little anxious. He pointed at the two characters.

"They aren't in my head and you see them too, right?"

Patrick nodded, and Pete sighed and collapsed onto his knees, leaning his head against Patrick's back. In front of them, Sandman leaned over and kissed Benzedrine, and Patrick sighed.

It was going to be a long night.

AND PATRICK TRIES TO RESIST! BUT SANDMAN IS JUST LIKE "*evil grin* Aw, c'mon, you know you want tooooo~" and Patrick is like "NO PETE STOP IT." BUT HE IS NOT PETE, HE IS SANDMAN, AND SANDMAN IS KIND OF A JERK. But then Patrick randomly turns into Benzedrine and just gives Sandman this little smile.
AND THEN ANDY WAKES UP SCREAMING and he wakes up the entire rest of the bus and Patrick is like "ANDY WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING" and Andy is just like "GUYS. GUYS. WE ARE BURNING THE AMERICA'S SUITEHEARTS COSTUMES RIGHT THE FUCK NOW." And Pete is like "D: I LIKED MY GAUNTLETS, THEY WERE COOL" and Andy is like "RIGHT THE FUCK NOW, WENTZ. >:("

JOE AND ANDY MADE IT INTO THE LIFEBOATS, BUT PATRICK AND PETE DIDN'T. D: ;___; But then! They turn into seagulls and stalk Joe and Andy and eventually they die in some weird freak accident a la Final Destination BECAUSE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DIE ON THE TITANIC SO THAT THEY COULD ALL FORM A BAND THAT WERE BIRDS BY DAY AND GHOST MUSICIANS BY NIGHT. AND THEN EVERYONE LIVES HAPPILY EVER AFTER. OR, like, reincarnation happens, or something.
