Brendon wanted to grab him, sit him down, and tell him that they (he) could do this. Tell him until he'd listen for something other than mistakes. )

I can't believe you wrote me birthday fic! Holy shiT I was so not expecting this! :D :D :D :D :D
It wasn't Brendon's fault Ryan was a hobag.
*dies and is ded*
Brendon was bad at standing up for himself. The last time he'd done that, he'd gotten kicked out of his own life.
"I want to call my mom," said Brendon. "I still need to get the minivan from her." And avoid any mention of her conspicuous absence.
They were actually recording now, which was a new weapon in Ryan's emotional abuse arsenal.
He did his best to give what he could and ignore what he couldn't help, but being a doormat could only go so far when that was all he'd ever been.
Because life and Ryan were both unfair, this wound up being Brendon's fault too.
Owwww bb!Brendon. (You are so good at giving me the things I like.)
Brendon crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows. "I'm not really writing a ballad," he clarified. "In case you wanted to tear it up before you had to look at it."I had to go back and reread ( ... )

I was like "it is Elle's birthday nowish!" and V was like "let's co-write her something" and I was like "ooooh, we gotta do something with Brendon being sad and pathetic" and she suggested this. I feel it was an appropriate choice. \o/

But that's not what he needs.
Seriously, Ryan, why must you hide your sensitivity in the closet?

I'm glad that came through as intended! Elle is big on hurt without the comfort, so that's what we were going for. :P
