Summary
He's like these prey animals playing dead, when he gets like that. Won't move, won't talk, won't open his eyes, won't do, won't listen, won't, won't. It's scary like nothing else in the world. You've got this thing curled up in a bed, right here, and it's not doing a thing. Not moving, not talking, not opening its eyes, not, not, not. A gunshot wouldn't wake him up. So you've got this thing between (in, in, in) your hands and there's nothing you can do with it.
A (somewhat) study of Jimmy's mental health and relationship with Robert through the late 70s. Quite boneless and plotless.

Summary
1973. Led Zeppelin is huge, Jimmy is making himself scarce, and Robert is keeping himself busy to avoid thinking about it. It doesn't work.
I've been wanting to do a tribute to my wonderful friend/coauthor LuxeApocalypse (who came up with the title)'s wonderful story, What Is And What Should Never Be (specifically the 1973 chapter) for a long, long time, but never felt like I had anything to add! Until now! My spin is supposed to be a bit dry and melancholic, retaining the second-person tense that I love so much in WIAWSNB, with added sex with strangers (and friends).

"Digging Deep(er)" or “Holy Shit, Jimbert Is Real?!”- The Meta by AshToAshes77, Goldragon (thebookhunter), ledbythreads, mary_anjel, thebookhunter

Summary
(Harrumph. Tap-tap. Is this working? okay)
So what you'll find here is a collection of uuuh literary analyses of Robert Plant's original lyrics from the 70s to current times. The idea behind it is that Robert has been writing about his epic love story with Jimmy Page...
(*shuffling of chairs and rumble of footsteps as the audience stampedes for the nearest exit in a panic*)
... Oookay. So. The three brave souls remaining, with enough curiosity and open-mindedness (or enough "poor girl, she's tried so hard") to give me a chance. Gather round, bit closer.
What I was saying. Robert Plant has been writing about his epic love story with Jimmy Page in his songs since forever. It's really not that subtle. All it takes to see it is considering "so what if it was real" and have a quick look.
But since I've found symbols, metaphors, recurring themes, connections and callbacks all over the place, I'd like to tell you about them. I've done the work, so you don't have to.
The conclusion is (spoilers) yes, Jimbert is hella real, it's not platonic, it's colossal, it's fucking beautiful... and it's alive.
Intrigued yet? Come on board mateys, we're going sailing.

Summary
1977: In a smoky Cokeworth pub where the Sex Pistols scream Anarchy through crackling speakers, Hermione's serving chips while young Severus Snape pours pints and practices his sneer. She wasn't supposed to be here, but a cursed Time-Turner had other plans the night Dumbledore fell. Their summer burns wild and free, all vinyl records, heated nights, and a love affair that tastes like rebellion. But September's reality crashes in: they're both heading to Hogwarts, where choosing sides means more than picking records.
Two decades, two wars, and one hell of a temporal mess later; the future's about to get a new soundtrack.
Never mind prophecies, History's about to get loud.

Summary
In 1975 the band was at its absolute peak, the Black Dragon was at its mightiest, and it was the apotheosis of the Golden God.
That year, Jimmy and Robert travelled to Morocco.
It wasn't their first trip alone together, but it was many weeks long, and it left a deep, enduring mark. When they reunited for Page/Plant in the mid 90s, this is the place they chose to find their groove again. Not many years ago, Robert did the thing he does of telling the press he wishes they would go again, Jimmy and him. (Just pick up the fucking phone, old man.) (NO! I'll make an entire album instead!) (Fine by me anyway. I love that album.)
Very soon after that journey in 1975, disaster struck in the form of a near-fatal car crash which left Robert wheelchair bound for months. He recovered, but things were just not the same after that.
Based on Achilles Last Stand, we fantasise about how it might be in Jimmy's heart and mind in those days, before everything started to fall apart, as well as some terrible, ominous hindsight from his present-ish self, who knows what happens in the next chapter.

Summary
Fifteen years after the war, Hermione and Severus have built a life together. For the past year, they have been trying for a child—hope rising, hope fading, month after month of quiet heartbreak.
Then, an unfinished equation. A shattered artefact. A spell completed at last.
And Lily Potter wakes up—thirty-two years after her supposed death.
She is displaced, grieving, and clinging to the past—to the man who once loved her, the man who spent years protecting her son in her name.
But Severus is not the man she remembers. Nor is he the man he was at the end of the war.
Because now, he has someone else to love. Someone else to fight for. Someone else who loves him in return.
When past and present collide, what will remain?
ATTENTION: This is NOT an infidelity fic! Read the tags and the list in the story notes on the first chapter!

So long ago and out of sight by AshToAshes77, Goldragon (thebookhunter), ledbythreads, mary_anjel, thebookhunter
Fandom Led Zeppelin
22 Dec 2022
Summary
"And now the carnival is over
Someone turn out the light.
Our fields of plenty filled with clover
So long ago and out of sight.This little light that keeps on shining
All through the darkness, through the night,
That ever more will keep reminding
Our journey is long, our flame is bright.And if there's one more time I can dance with you
Let me dance with you tonight
It's the last chance our hearts will dance
Into the lovers' night.Out in the land of never ending
The rich parade, the roar of life.
We shared a world forever changing
Through dancing days and wondrous nights.I offered up the secret places
Revealed the magic of the land
All bound by blood and lipstick traces
Till time conspired to steal our crown."(Robert Plant, "Dance with you tonight", Carry Fire, 2017.)
This is the song that started all of this. The Copernican Turn. The Wait A Fucking Second moment.
I found a thread, I started pulling, and everything else just fell into place.

Heart in your hand - The first season by ledbythreads
Fandom Jimmy Page - Fandom, Led Zeppelin, Page & Plant, Robert Plant - Fandom, Rock Music RPF
15 Apr 2021
Summary
This is my *personal* One True Pairing canon timeline series for Robert Plant/ Jimmy Page. It's a story set as far as I am able right up against reality so dates, people, places, are as fully researched as possible. Partners, children, crew, are all present and Jimmy and Robert's story is about falling in love in the midst of other loves and other events - a love broken and repaired many times. I'm writing chronologically* starting with 'Push Push' in May 1969 and I plan to write through to Page/Plant times. Though each story can be read in its own right they make more sense as a larger work and refer to each other.
This is fiction as real as I can make it.*ok my chronology with shorter works is out the window of a limo in the motorcade; it's up a tree with a squirrel in Wales; it's under a rock in north Africa. I'm just going with it. (October 2020)

Summary
Saturday night. 18th May 1985. Jimmy is finally touring again in a band that is working for him. Robert is days away from releasing Shaken and Stirred. He's never seen Jimmy from the audience and he just has time before he flies out to the US.
Jimmy knew this tour would be different. Not like these little bits of projects and charity gigs. Something real. Playing Birmingham it's not such a surprise he's come. Well, maybe it is. It still makes a difference. Knowing he's listening.

Summary
July 1977. Jimmy is thirty-three years old with nothing to show for it. No beautiful wife. No two-point-five kids. No satisfying, fulfilling career. Nothing to point to a life being lived with any success. His closest friends are Beep, his high school friend turned Hollywood hotshot who supplements Jimmy's burgeoning cocaine addiction, and Robert, his annoyingly British coworker at Swan Song Records.
After Jimmy finds himself unemployed, he boldly attempts to make a change: he's going on a cross-country road trip, and he's taking Robert with him. Burning up the highway, Jimmy struggles to make sense of the mess his life's become and tries in vain not to fall in love with Robert, whose brilliant optimism threatens to break through Jimmy's cynical, hardened heart. As they drive across the United States, strangers become friends, passions are awakened, and lives begin anew.
