[1920s mafia AU] Gerard Way is a young, ambitious journalist in NYC, partly controlled by the mafia. His yearning for the truth starts getting him into trouble, but he is willing to go as far as it takes for his investigations. Maybe a little too far. This also happens to be the case of a certain Mr. Iero, who shares... peculiar bonds with the mafia. What if fate gives them a hand and make their paths cross? Will they both survive such a challenge? ⚠️Trigger warnings⚠️ violence, blackmail, death, mental illnesses, mention of trafficking and lots of illegal things.
