Power shifts, lines blur, and by the end, they’re both bleeding.Warning:

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
A flyer pinned to the community bulletin board at Frank's favorite dive bar reads:
TATTOO TAP-OUT. $350, ARTIST'S CHOICE. I'LL INK YOU 'TIL YOU CRY. (8 HRS MAX). SHOW UP @ MXRDER SCENE TATTOO & LET'S DO THIS.
He tears it off the board and stumbles outside with a half-empty Schlitz. To drive home sober is but a suggestion.
***
OR, a weird middle-ground between a bottle episode and a dialogue study, in which Gerard Way is a tattoo artist and Frank Iero is an ink fiend willing to take eight hours under a needle in exchange for... well, he isn't sure.
Spanning a year's worth of tattoo appointments-- trending toward mutual therapy sessions-- and the occasional adventure, Frank and Gerard bond over croquet teams, missing cats, deep fears, and the belief that a city can shatter a heart, but the right person can put it back together again.

Summary
After a disorienting night on tour, Gerard wakes up in 2005.
He remembers exactly how this story ends. The problem is that changing it means lying to everyone he loves, and the more desperately he tries to protect the future, the more damage he does to the present.
Something went wrong, or something finally came back.
Either way, the past remembers him too well.
AUTHOR'S WARNING: This started as a silly time-travel fix-it and somehow evolved into a LONG character study about communication, regret, and second chances. The early chapters are shorter than the later ones and a little rough around the edges (•́ ᴖ •̀)
Please enjoy the emotional damage.

Summary
Nurse Iero is a fuckup. What else is new? But this fuckup deserves a special kind of punishment. And maybe in Ravencolm Hospital, servicing the prisoners in the adjoining penitentiary, he might find purpose again, maybe even peace. Turns out that's pretty fucking hard to do with a coworker like Gerard, with his inexplicable need to dress the way he does, and treat Frank like human flotsam. The rest of the town's creepy-ass denizens aren't helping, or the fact that it's in the middle of nowhere, without even a proper grocery store. Or maybe Frank just deserves to go through hell.

Summary
Somewhere in 18th century coastal Italy, a Gentleman's son firmly believes there is more to life than a comfortable home, ambitious parents, and a part-time gig at the butcher's shop. Then, from the depths of the ocean, like a well-timed plot device riding a squid, Gerard, Boy Princess of the Ocean, comes to show Frank just what he's missing.
[A repost of the original 2008 gay starfish comic.]

Summary
They've been best friends forever. All Frank ever wanted was for Gerard to conquer his insecurities and get the recognition, praise and attention he deserved. All Gerard ever wanted, was Frank.
When a last-minute trip right before their first year of college doesn't quite go as planned, Frank and Gerard's friendship starts to unravel. As they grow up and battle with careers, relationships and considerable trauma, it seems that things can only ever get worse when they've been ignoring one simple thing for more than a decade -- that they've been in love ever since the start.
[Or: the one where Gerard writes a screenplay, Frank's band goes double-platinum, and no matter how bad things between them get, they can't quite seem to stay apart.]

Summary
There was something about the way Gerard looked, moved, and sang tonight that caught Frank off guard – and he couldn’t figure out why. Maybe it was the alcohol, weed, and adrenaline, but those were always present at the other shows they played, so he couldn’t exactly blame it on that. Also, Gerard’s jacket was far too small on them and for some reason, Frank couldn’t stop staring.

Summary
Ever since Gerard Way got transferred to his school, Frank's life has been hell and his only goal is to survive his final year and, well, maybe harbour a secret crush on his bully. That is until their relationship starts developing into something else - something that is messy and complicated and far from ideal. But love is supposed to hurt ... at least when you're a masochist.

Summary
All Frank ever wanted in life was to find a hot Dom to love and cherish him and maybe pay all of his bills while they are at it. But things just never seem to work out in Frank's favour, and not even a cute comic book writer and a hot lead guitarist can change that, can they?

Summary
Frank was a broke exhausted sex worker before someone swooped him with a helping hand to guide him away from it all. That was years ago. Frank has been out of the game for a while now, all for the sake of mending his broken heart and past, learning how to navigate life on his own. Additionally, adjusting to life as a submissive with no one to come home to. When Ray directs him to Verity, a fetish club that holds private parties with the promise of Frank's exact interests, he wanders in and falls in love with the obscenities he finds there. Gerard, Verity’s shy but magnetic owner, is immediately captivated by Frank’s public display at a party and guides him under his wing where Frank finds a chance at not only fully coming to terms with his past, but kindling a fast and intense love he both desires and fears.
