~BOOK IS ON HIATUS~ In the liminal space between tours, Frank and Gerard find themselves unraveling the silence that has grown between them. It's been years since The Black Parade, and something unsaid has lingered. A shared studio, old notebooks, and late-night confessions bring them closer to something neither is ready to name.

#1 in gerardway 2/2/2026 #2 in MCR 1/24/26 #1 in illimcmillin 1/24/26 ((updating regularly))High school is hell, but it's worse when you're Illi McMillin - a comic book-obsessed, eyeliner-wearing trans girl trying to survive sophomore year with zero popularity, no lunch table, and a target on her back. Meanwhile, her freshman brother Mikey Way is out here charming everyone with his glasses, D&D stats, and unintentionally magnetic energy. Illi's not bitter. Okay, she is bitter. In a school ruled by jocks, cheerleaders, and fake smiles, Illi's had enough of being a background character. With a camera, a killer playlist, and the quiet rage of a thousand rejected superheroes, she's ready to fight back - one glorious breakdown at a time. Based loosely on the "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" music video. Angst, eyeliner, awkward sibling bonding, and the slow burn of finding your voice.

Gerard is new to the school.. he finally got kicked out of his old one, now being forced to go to school with Mikey, not that's it's a bad thing. unlike what people would thing, Gerard and Mikey get along great..it's just other people that bugs Gerard. he sticks out like a sore thumb, hes soft spoken and has pretty feminine features as well as dressing up in pastel clothes (skirts). he gets into fights a lot and he's not afraid to stick up for himself but it gets tiring so he normally lets his bully's do whatever they need. at his new school he meets Frank. he's known to not let people push him the wrong way and he'll call you out on your bullshit. Frank finds Gerard...uh, interesting. it's hard to tell what Gerard is thinking most times and that really bugs Frank. Gerard tends to be in his own and Frank wants to change that...but how can he? Gerard will forever be known as the "cross dresser" and Frank will always be seen as "too good" for Gerard.

Gerard Way was nothing short of an idiotic imbecile, and Frank Iero was the definition of punk rock. ↓ "You said I couldn't punch anyone. You never said anything about kicking." "Oh my fucking God-" - - cocky!punk!frank | idiot!pastel!gerard [SOME CHAPTERS ARE POORLY EDITED IM SORRY]

In the hostile town of Belleville, New Jersey, a small diner was situated, run by Bob Bryar and somewhat co-owned by the bitter redhead known as Gerard "Gee" Way. It wasn't much, and a bit too busy for a comfortable scene, but it was the exact place a lonely Frank found himself at a useless hour, chatting up the nervous waiter whilst sipping away at a vanilla milkshake that was much too much for him and his small form. • • dangerdays!gerard parade!frank

In which Gerard is self repulsive and can't believe his little brother forced him to leave his room. That is, until he meets a cute baker that has just the right amount of tattoos. [COMPLETED] + [POOR EDITING WHOOPS]

Have you ever been sad? Good news, this exists. Just an ungodly amount of little gay boys living their best lives. Updates come often. Any requests or ideas from Tiktok will be added to this collection.

i whisper with my lips close to your ear, i have loved many women and men, but i love none better than you. o i have been dilatory and dumb, i should have made my way straight to you long ago, i should have blabb'd nothing but you, i should have chanted nothing but you. -walt whitman, to you ~~~~~~~~ basically just the plot of dead poets society but if neil and todd were a thing

Gerard Way is the school's Norman Bates. He's freaky, he acts like he's constantly anticipating something, and he does taxidermy. People fear him, and quite honestly, he gets off on it. There are so many bad rumors circulating about him that even he isn't sure which ones are true. Meanwhile, Frank Iero has a reputation for himself. He's an idiot. A comedic one, especially with his friend James, but an idiot. He once came to school high off his ass and passed his math exam with flying colors. It was a dumb move, but an entertaining one. Just like when he took the dare to make Gerard Way fall in love with him. • AKA "That ONE fanfic where ray is a massive asshole" Theme Song: Paralyzed - The Used

Frank is your average punk high schooler who gets himself into a stupid dare in order to fit in and get his bullies off his back, but the shit he got himself into turned out to be a life-changing experience. Read on to see what happens cause I'm obviously shit at descriptions. Warnings: serious case of cringe-attacks at some parts (sorry), smut, strong language, and mild suicidal thoughts around chapter two (nothing too serious, I like to keep my fics happy cause I'm already traumatized enough with gay fics and real life), also a bit of cross-dressing. P.s: Gerard is a supernatural being in this one cause I apparently hate humans and cannot write a fucking normal fic. All the love, HR. xx
