    Summary

    Gerard’s perspective of the human body was that each and every one was a masterpiece. They were like landscapes, possible to be similar but unique to each of their own. They had edges and curves, rolls and concave dips, impurities and perfections. So why is his body the exception?
    ——
    Gerard, 24, is an artist has an on-and-off restrictive eating disorder. He meets Frank, 22, who is photographing an art gallery Gerard is selling pieces at. He doesn’t want to fall in love at such a low point in his life but in such darkness even a little light seems comforting.

    Summary

    In 2004, My Chemical Romance were on tour.

    Shitty motels, a sweaty tour bus, sold-out shows around the world.

    Involved with an influentially-bad singer from another band, Gerard began to spiral into addiction. No one really noticed. Everyone went to parties and drank on tour.

    But Frank noticed.

    After a quiet night alone together – and a few tense exchanges he might have called flirting – he started to view Gerard as more than a friend.

    Summary

    People don’t buy doughnuts at three o’clock in the morning.

    That’s one of the main things that Shayne learns about this job, standing behind a fluorescent-lit display case of slick glazed and frosted pastries, the outside world dark enough that it sometimes looked like the little building was floating somewhere in a starless void.

    It’s stupid really. This was supposed to be temporary, just a month or two until Shayne could figure out what the hell his next step was supposed to be but here he was, four months into a night shift job working the cash register at somewhere called Donut Galaxy.

    Things could, he’d remind himself, be so much worse. They certainly could be a heck of a lot better, too. At the very least a lot more exciting. Little does he know that he's about to get his wish, whether he likes it or not.
