You have broken my goddamn heart. Oh, Frankie, you hopeless romantic. Oh, Gerard, you crazy fool.

I'm not sniffling. I just- I've got something in my eye.

[joyfulseeker]

Awww, I'm sorry! I didn't (quite) mean to. Those pesky eye-cinders! They can be quite bothersome.

[miznarrator]

Oh my heart.

Frank.

[joyfulseeker]

Thank you!

[joyfulseeker]

Thank you so much! You definitely picked one of my favorite parts, or, at least, the part that I messaged quettaser about and said, "OH MY GOD I JUST GOT TO WRITE THE MOST CLICHED THING EVERRRRRRRR."

Good times, yup. I just, what I love about Frank is that you can absolutely make him say something like that, absolutely, which is a lot of fun.

Oh, oh, so sweet and sad!

"That wasn't so crazy," he whispered, and Gerard smiled so that Frank could feel it everywhere they were touching.

"I wanted to do that," Gerard said.

"I like that you did that," Frank said,

I love that moment SO much! Gorgeous. Thank you for sharing, even if it did break my heart a little. ;-)

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it! That was my other favorite part, when I was rereading on one of my bouts of "oh lord what happens next why am I writing this story?" so I'm glad it worked for you as well!

[joyfulseeker]

Oh, you know, that's a really interesting point, and one that I hadn't thought about, because I am by default reading from the perspective of knowing how it ends. I'm so glad that both ways worked, gosh! Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it. At one point, I was like, YES, ADDING TO THE STORE OF AMBIGUOUSLY UNHAPPY MCR STORIES, YES!
