Attitude of Gratitude
I woke up with a headache and started the day off with a whole lot of grumpy left over from yesterday, but then my Yogi tea fortune told me to have an attitude of gratitude, and so I thought, okay, sure, fine. Fine!
So I'd decided to make a list of things in bandom stories guaranteed make me joyous, things that I just love beyond measure, and while some of these things are things guaranteed to make me flail in pretty much any story ever, this is definitely a list influenced by the presence of Gerard Way.

- JJ <3's stories where:
- there are lots of sibling moments. Oh, my heart, I am fascinated by siblings.
- Mikey is integral in orchestrating some part of Frank/Gerard. WEAK IN THE KNEES.
- someone has to clean up someone else's mess, especially if they love the person whose mess they are cleaning up. GETS ME EVERY TIME. (Though what I wouldn't give to see a story where Gerard is cleaning up after Frank. I mean, that would quite possibly strike me dead.) Which leads me to:
- Gerard gets sober - which leads me to:
- the band acts as a family, where they come together to take care of one of their own. Which - ok, you get the point.
- someone is sent or takes it upon himself to "have a talk" with someone else, be it a "don't fuck this up" conversation, an "I'll kill you if you hurt him" conversation, or just a, "You're acting like an idiot and I lost rock-paper-scissors so I had to come tell you" moment. It's such a guy thing. They don't talk to each other, they give or get given talks. It's adorable.
