Nell'estate del 1974, Ryan Ross intraprende un estenuante tour in supporto dell'album rivelazione della sua band, sforzandosi di adattarsi alla pressione e alle prospettive di fama improvvisa. Mentre si divide tra la sua band che sta per sciogliersi, il suo migliore amico che racconta bugie ed effimere ragazze, prende una strada pericolosa e auto-distruttiva, quando si permette di volere l'unica persona che non può permettersi di avere. "Io mi sarei accontentato di un successo mediocre. Un contratto discografico, tour piccoli, un forte controllo di me stesso. È questo ciò che volevo, ciò che probabilmente ho avuto all'incirca tra il primo e il secondo album, ma mi è sfuggito. Non me ne sono accorto. Perciò adesso la mia faccia stampata è su copertine di riviste, i fan urlano e svengono alla mia vista, e io voglio mettere quest'auto in retromarcia e tornare dritto al momento che mi è sfuggito, il momento in cui in un club a Buffalo notai un gruppo di ragazzi che muovevano la testa a ritmo di musica tra un pubblico di tremila persone, e il mio cuore si fermò alla conquista. Ma è troppo tardi ormai, e io sono andato." Attenzione: Contiene sesso, stupefacenti e rock'n roll. Disclaimer: Tengo a precisare che questa è solo una traduzione e che ho avuto il permesso dell'autrice per pubblicarla qui.

"He thinks I have stigmata," Frank said, because what the fucking hell, it couldn't get any worse. He might as well just lay it out. "Oh, well," said Brian into his hands. "Of course." ~ I did not write this story. All credit goes to the author, Bexless on Archive Of Our Own. Link to the original story: http://archiveofourown.org/series/9795

George didn't expect much of his life. He come to be rather complacent with the ways things had turned out to be. He wasn't unhappy, per se, just very uninspired by the world around him. He found himself with little more than vague enthusiasm towards a select few things in his life. Perhaps he'd thought he was okay with that, and that he'd live his life amounting to very little at all. Perhaps he really had thought that, but that was before he'd met Matty. Matty didn't expect much of himself. He'd fall out of trust with the world, and came to bury the person he'd once been deep inside himself, under a mess of arrogance and over spoken ideas about the way things should be. Everything was bullshit - love, family, being a 'functioning member of society', and perhaps it didn't look like he was ever going to get far with his life. Perhaps he'd thought he was okay with that: with locking up who he really was inside everything he'd wanted to be. Perhaps he really had believed that, but that was before he'd met George. Neither of them had much cared for change, but the thing was that change never did stop to ask for your opinion before it happened.

"Parliamoci chiaro, ero un barbone, quello ero, niente di più e niente di meno, ma lui non se ne era preoccupato tanto, non si era fermato a quello che sembravo, ma si era soffermato su quello che ero veramente. [...] Eravamo così simili eppure irrimediabilmente diversi."
