Summary
AU in which Anthony accidentally moves back in with Ian at the Smosh house after breaking up with Kalel, and things progress from there. Featuring the Smosh Games crew, a healthy amount of drunk!Anthony shenanigans, and an Ian who mysteriously skypes with Melanie a lot and despairs at the quantity of drunk!Anthony shenanigans.
Happy ending, I promise!

Summary
Ian is a Boss.
Not in the cringe ‘You’re a boss!’ way, but like, actually - a boss.
Like, talking about key metrics with Production on the YouTube shorts - then confirming with HR that they were still exploring buying into a dental plan with Mythical - and how yes, he was aware and authorizes, three artist proposals for the new office mural.
It took a while for Anthony to settle himself with the thought.
Update: Surprise! The time Anthony gave Ian COVID has been added as Chapter 2. (As my friends get sick around me). The funeral roast is Chapter 3.

Summary
“It’s beautiful, right?” Ian hears Anthony ask, his voice drawing Ian from his own thoughts.
Ian looks up and sees Anthony standing there, a long sleek line in his dress shirt and pants, his tattooed hand curled around a flute of champagne that matches Ian’s own.
Ian nods in agreement and sips from his own flute before he answers Anthony.
“Yeah, it is, and kinda crazy.”
The two of them are on the sidelines of the party as they watch Courtney and Shayne fuck around by the pool with Chanse, and Arasha, and Spencer. The group crouched near the water while Angela filmed the whole lot of them, cackling and filling the air with joyous laughter.
“I think this must be what parents feel like when their kids get married,” Anthony says as he watches the other cast members laugh and celebrate.
“Anthony, we aren’t that much older than the rest of them,” Ian scoffs.
