drawing! today was supposed to be our final grade day for this first pose, but we did the critique and then he gave us another week to fix it up even more. \o/? I really don't have a lot to do with mine. darken a few things, straighten my horizon line, that's about it. I was actually impressed with the progress a lot of other people made; there

Mikey comes in a few minutes later. Gerard doesn’t move, and he doesn’t bother with tugging the blanket up over Frank’s ass. Frank won’t care. Mikey hands him a beer bottle; it’s more than half gone. Gerard leans up on his elbow to take a sip without choking or spilling on the bed.
“That was kind of fucked up,” Mikey murmurs. He sits down cross-legged at the foot of the bed.
Frank snuggles closer at Gerard’s movement and tangles their legs together. Gerard looks down at his face, the soft curve of Frank’s cheek where it meets his own pale skin, and nods. “He’s kind of fucked up, I think,” he adds quietly, and it’s true. Frank would be the first to admit that.

Gerard grabs the front of his shirt and slams him into the bar, pushing down so Frank’s bent backwards over it. “Don’t you fucking call me that,” he hisses. He doesn’t hold Frank there; he lets go a second later, reaches into his pocket to toss a wad of money onto the bar, and disappears ( ... )

I really liked the Bob/Frank friendship in Guilt and how Frank has to confess what he's done because Bob, like everybody at the time, jumped to the logical conclusion that Gerard had been the one in the wrong when it was really Frank pushing and pushing him. Frank finally admitting aloud what he'd done, that he was the one who had turned Gerard's life upside down was really a big thing for him. I remember the first I read this I was really surprised that Frank tracked Gerard down after he broke down with Bob. I like to think the story would have a happy ending but there is so much standing the way.

“Should I let you clean up before we get out of here? Or do you want to walk around like this?”
“Please let me clean up,” Frank whispered.
“Maybe I should just leave you tied up next time I go out,” Gerard mused.
“No!”
“Why shouldn’t I?”
“No, don’t, please,” Frank cried. He remembered vividly the horrible ache in his chest from being abandoned like that, the loneliness and the uncertainty, and the more physical ache in his shoulders from being unable to move for hours on end. “I’ll be good, I promise,” he said. “Please don’t leave me like that again, please.”
Gerard reached around to the back seat and pulled out the makeup kit. He tossed it into Frank’s lap. “Clean yourself up,” he said coldly, “and don’t piss me off.”
