    Summary

    Gerard didn’t think he would make it past the age of 25. It just never seemed to be in the cards for him. The world he lived in was not meant for people like him. That’s why at the age of 26, somehow still kicking, he found himself adrift, attending weekly group therapy sessions for suicide survivors and scrambling to make a list of all the reasons he shouldn’t try again.

    He certainly never expected the newest, aggressively hostile member of the therapy group - Frank, who seems to hate everyone and everything on principle - to become the next bullet point on that list.

    Summary

    It's not that Mike wants Will to be a girl, but if he were, their lives would be so much easier.

    (Or; during a game of truth or dare, Will ends up in El's clothing. Mike can't help but notice how similar they are.)

    Summary

    “What are these?” Will flicks through the stack of letters neatly wrapped and sealed in unsuspecting white envelopes. He looks back up at Mike. “I mean, I see what it is: letters. But why are they addressed to…”

    Will reads the text on the first envelope again, as if doubting his own vision. Mike watches him, unable to speak or move. Will brushes over the card with his thumb. Gentle, soft, caring. His eyebrows twitch, a multitude of emotions flashing across his face all at once.

    “You,” Mike says softly and Will’s head jumps up to meet his eyes. “Seven letters. All addressed to you.”

    -or-

    Mike wheeler has been writing letters to Will for months, and he never sent them. One day, when they are about to go into the final battle with Vecna, he decides to give Will the letters. The letters in which his darkest thoughts rest.

    Summary

    “Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile.

    Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?'

    Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.

    Summary

    Will didn’t know what was wrong. He’d drawn Mike before. Hundreds of times.
    But now, he couldn’t seem to grip the pencil properly, let alone apply delicate layers of paint. The furthest he’d gotten was Mike’s torso and an outline of his head, but when he tried to draw the rest of his body, Will ended up feeling so dizzy that he had to sit down.
    He flopped face down on to his bed with a whine. How was he going to be a brilliant artist if he couldn’t even draw a figure?! It was just Mike! It was just legs! Will wouldn’t actually have to draw his… his crotch…

     

     

    As Valentine’s Day sweeps across Lenora Hills High, Will finds himself struggling to finish a very special painting. Searching for answers in the library, he comes across something that shakes him to his core, changing the way he looks at Mike Wheeler forever.

    Summary

    At the ripe age of twenty four Frank Iero finds himself in charge of a family pizzeria after his father skips town. The business is hanging by a thread, and Frank, who has little to no experience in running a restaurant, is desperately trying to make ends meet and not destroy the Iero family legacy in the process.
    In comes Gerard Way, once a chef in Michelin-starred restaurants, now looking for a job at a pizzeria in Newark. And he might just be the person Frank needs.

    Summary

    Finally, Paul has the chance to break into the cool side of the Liverpool social scene with the musicians and the art students thanks to Ivan, George reluctant and grumbling at his side. They get an invite to John Lennon's house for a party, and Paul's looking to get drunk, get high, and make a statement.

    He certainly gets what he wishes for when he meets John Lennon, and cool fucking facade be damned, because he might just have fallen in love at first sight.

    There's a catch, however. John's got a girlfriend. Paul doesn't fuck boys with girlfriends. Not anymore.

    John has a funny way of fucking up his so-called rules.

    Summary

    On April 28th, 1961, 8:26am Paul McCartney’s alarm goes off.

    “Paul was on the precipice of something brilliant, and every nerve in his body could feel it. What was about to take place was something deeply woven into the tapestry of his fate and history. Paul was nothing of the person he once was, and the person he was about to become was just on the horizon.”

    Inspired by Groundhog Day and “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles

    Summary

    “Look, asshole, do you want a job or not?” Mikey interrupts. “You said yourself you were bored. I know you can’t afford cigarettes anymore. Until the millions of jobs you applied for decide to call you back, this is the best you got.”

    Gerard grimaces.

    “Besides,” Mikey continues after a beat, “you’d get to hang out with me. And Ray and Frank too, I guess. But at least you wouldn’t be loitering at my job instead of finding something else productive to do.”

    Gerard looks at Mikey for a moment before groaning and tugging a hand through his hair. “Fine, you win. Brian, can I have an application?”

    Summary

    It’s 2005, the Grim Reaper has taken up residency in New Jersey and one high school kid’s causing him a real pain in the ass, going by the largely unpronounceable name of Frank Iero. Frank Iero has been able to tell when people are going to die for as long as he can remember. He’s also hated Gerard Way for as long as he can remember, who happens to be one of the few people whose death dates he doesn't know. The hatred is very much mutual. Well, for now, at least.

    Summary

    Religion! Horror! Exorcisms! Piercings! And Gerard is a priest.

    Disclaimer: I stole frequently and unrepentantly from Joss Whedon and the makers of various horror movies throughout this whole series. Also I am not an expert on the Vatican or medical-type things, so please accept my apologies in advance for all the wild inaccuracies I am sure you are about to encounter. If everyone could just assume this is the Magical Made-Up Vatican, you know, like the religious institution version of those tour buses that drive themselves and don't carry anyone but the band, that would be awesome.
