He made it to the bathroom and stood there learning heavily on the sink, staring at himself in the mirror. He didn’t look like a creepy sadist. But neither did Christian Bale, and that hadn’t ended well for anybody.*

Frank wasn’t afraid of his emotions or anything. He laughed when he was happy and he yelled when he was mad. He said ‘I love you’ when it was true, and he hugged when he felt like it, and he still got all choked up when Gerard sang Cancer live and he didn’t care what anybody thought about it.*




Sparkle Motion

The Fall and Rise of The Black Parade

At the time, it was like, Great, of course the fans who are waiting around to give you chocolate bars and like, are those Skittles?, and a whole fucking shitload of candy, of course they show up when you’re in the middle of rushing back to the hotel because Ray and Bob and Mikey all have food poisoning.*




Skin of the Canvas

I’ve always wondered why, when Gerard decided he wanted to save lives, he turned away from visual arts and started a band. This is an AU version of one answer.

I Just Want Your Extra Time (and Your… Kiss)

Frank takes a quick look in his rear view mirror, runs his fingers through his messy hair and then smiles at his reflection as he slides the key out of the ignition.

Walk Into the Sun

Bandswap

It wasn’t like he didn’t know these guys; not like he hadn’t spent weeks practically living in their back pockets during Warped.
