I have so much love for this fic!!! Wow, all the side conversations and little references to the band and others seemed so real, and like, they were actual 20 something guys, you know? But Jesus, des, the hotness... You have a way if allowing ridiculously hot moments to build amidst storytelling, and you also aren't afraid to let some of the building be actualfax bad sex, or meh sex. A theme in your writing is lack of romance, and I should just point to you when ppl don't get why I am antifluff but like happy endings. It's not so much that your characters have no romance, I mean, I think it's clear over time what sort of relationship is developing here, but that they do so with lack of expectation, pretension... I think that's what feels so right about it; your characters aren't walking around with half a romance in their hearts, waiting for the next attractive person to waltz in and fill the other side. They tend to tumble into it, and look up, months or years or minutes later, and be like, fuck I totally have a boyfriend!

Every. Single. Thingyoudid with Mike was fucking fantastic. Not sure I can coherently describe the brilliance of his strong restraining--ONLY TO HELP, NOT TO BE *PART* OF IT. fuck. Frank's neediness for being held/gathered was beautiful, actually. Who wouldn't want to be caught between Gerard Way's pretty and sassy mouth and Mike Pedicone's muscle tanned chest and low voice FUCK. and yeah, I was hoping for the cock shoved down Frank's throat too, ngl.

Oh! I love how Gerard took the blame for the Internet search. That? See now, that's romantic, without you ever drawing hearts around their initials, you know?

Well I wonder wonder wonder how that night went after the label or Mikey suggested they audition Mike Pedicone for WCT.... and what happened when he joined them. Uunnnnffff

Wow, thank you SO MUCH for this incredible comment (and for the real-time feedback on twitter, that was SUCH A TREAT), you spoil me! ♥

It's SUCH a compliment to hear that they felt realistic, and that the bad sex worked - because I am totally with you, sex fails a LOT, but that's how you learn and it kind of makes it even better when you get it right, y'know?

And I TOTALLY feel you on the romance thing. It just - the way it develops in romcoms just doesn't feel like it would match up with the boys as we know them! And yeah... my idea of fluff is Gerard telling Frank that the only thing that's ever been in his ass is Frank's dick, LOL, (or like you said: Gerard taking the fall for the google search) so I agree 100%. So happy you enjoyed it!

And PEDICONE unnnnnnnnngh. The RESTRAINT. I am SO INTO this idea too, and I am really into writing a sequel to explore that more *_____________*

Thank you SO MUCH for taking the time to read this and let me know your thoughts ♥ ♥ YOU ARE GREAT
