wake up and shake the glitter off your clothes now

[schmerica]

Oh god it is the time of the week when I am so tired I want to sleep forever but I can't because work! If I owe you comments I will get to them soon, but possibly not until Sunday, because I am working all weekend and also I really need to try and get my statement of purpose done tomorrow so I can mail things off on Monday.

BUT HEY YOU GUYS LET'S TALK ABOUT WAYCEST. Specifically: Paramour Waycest. I think I have mentioned before that this is probably the era where I find the incest the easiest to buy with these guys -- and then the people I was talking to stuck their fingers in their ears and shouted "LA LA LA" until I agreed to start talking about non-heartrending things again. But, yeah, seriously. The house of fucked-up-edness, and everybody at the very edge, and Mikey fucking Way you guys, falling apart so badly with nothing anybody can do to stop it. Canonical going into Gerard's room to sleep every night! I just want that sense of trying so hard to hold onto himself, and trying to do that by holding on to Gerard, because Gerard's always been there, the thing he can rely on and measure himself by, and Mikey's drowning in just all of this and needs something. Except that Gerard isn't doing that well either, and when you're drowning you tend to pull the other one down with you, and Mikey is far enough gone and needs enough that there's no sense of outside perspective, no sense of how things are in the outside world, and that's when things go farther and weirder and worse than they ever would if they weren't clinging together in this very specific situation.

SO YEAH THAT IS WHAT I AM THINKING ABOUT. Someone should write that! Lots of someones! Also I am very sleepy so I should go to bed now because I have to get up in eight hours to go and work some more.

So remember this one time like a million years ago I asked for ficlet prompts and you were like "Mikey/Gerard or Mikey and Gerard, insomnia"? And then I basically only did like three of the prompts? But I started a bunch of other ones, including yours, which turned out to be pretty painful heart-wrenching Paramour Waycest. I should try to finish that over Christmas.

OMG, so not online right now. Back to work! ♥

I HAD TOTALLY FORGOTTEN ABOUT THAT BUT NOW I KNOW AND I WILL NOT FORGET AGAIN

There needs to be so much more of this in the world. ♥

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I know, right?

[valmontheights.livejournal.com]

I just want more Paramour fics, period.

I know some people won't touch it because the boys went through some goddamn serious shit in there, but it did give us the pile of motherfucking awesomeness that is "The Black Parade", and now that they're gearing up for a new record I still don't think fandom has really dug deep enough about the creation of the last one.

I want that knee-deep in depression, heavy-room conversation, day after day after day of fucking numbness torture with noises banging around empty halls and water running on itself kind of a mess.

Siiiiiiigh. There's really a limit to how much I can take, but that limit is definitely higher than what's out there already.

[impertinence.livejournal.com]

i nominate you!

I, uh, approve of this endeavor. I'd write some, except I have a rather self-indulgent Gerard/Lyn-Z in the works that is demanding my attention.

[iamsupernova.livejournal.com]

Which, actually, does feature the Paramour as a turning point in the plot. I'd write some incestuous undertones into it if it wouldn't totally undermine the Gerard/Lyn-Z.

I can wait! :D?

Yes. That house, just. It was kinda awful and so ... intense and that must be written. *proper icon*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I am such an expert on things that really should exist. :/

[magdalyna.livejournal.com]

Its an important skill.

[escherzo.livejournal.com]

Oh god, so tempting. I don't think I know enough about the Paramour to write it right, but waant.
