Fandom: Aerosmith RPS
Notes: Modern AU. 1325 Commonwealth was the address of Aerosmith’s communal Boston apartment during their early days. Basic premise is that one of Steven Tyler’s earlier bands broke out first and the Jam Band show at the Barn never happened, and modern technology provides many more non-chemical excuses for Tyler to tune out. But Tyler and Perry being what they are, eventually they were going to get together. For tall_tree, who first suggested Penelope chasing Pepé Le Pew.
Summary: Beach houses, magnetic poetry, New York ramen, lasers, and trans-Atlantic YouTube dissing are the building blocks of legend.

TYLER: There was a lot going on at the time. My health issues, the band’s line-up was in flux, just a lot of other plates spinning in the air. So at first I didn’t really notice him.
PERRY: Basically, Steven’s really fucking dense sometimes.
