Summary
1977. Frank falls victim to a knife-wielding killer and not only walks away with his life, but with a set of comic book-like abilities that he’s tried to make the best of.
1983. Gerard falls victim to that same killer, and not only walks away with his life, but with the inspiration to start a radio show dedicated to the man in the mask who saved him.
After ten long years, Frank is growing tired of his role as New York’s resident vigilante, and is more than ready to retire the act — until he discovers that the man who tried to kill him has escaped his life sentence and is now terrorizing his favorite late-night radio host live on air.
Who’s to say history doesn’t repeat itself?

Summary
It's been five states and two months since the diner. They've only got $68.35 left of Randy's savings, and Benson says, half-joking, “Shit, maybe we should rob a bank.”
“We’ll just pick a bank that deserves it," Randy says. "One that’s run by shitty people.” It catches Benson off guard, because he laughs at him at first. Then he looks again, sees he’s only half-joking too.
“Burgers Burgers Burgers was run by shitty people,” he tells Randy, like Randy can’t still taste the mold in the back of his throat sometimes. “And you worked there.”
Randy shrugs. He never used to shrug in answer to people. It’s impolite, his mom always said. Use your words. She still calls him nearly every single day. He ignores it every time.
“If there’s a me working at the bank, he’ll get over it,” Randy says, and he doesn’t see it at the time, but something in Benson splinters at that.

Summary
Benson wasn’t fucking clueless. He knew, by now, that this was more than just a simple fascination with an interesting coworker. But his peace of mind depended upon him ignoring a lot of uncomfortable truths.
Or: 5 moments from Benson and Randy's weird, sad year of working together.

Summary
Benson walks slowly, like he’s not about to drag Randy into the worst day of his life, like he’s not about to set off a chain of events which will lead to Benson lying still and bloody in a dirty parking lot.
Randy wants to vomit. It feels so real.

Summary
Party Poison glares like Frank’s mere presence could’ve jeopardized the game. But then the scowl melts off and is exchanged with a smirk.
“I’m so glad you came tonight!” he says in the fakest sugary tone possible. “It’s important for a novice to observe, because you learn so much. And surely you learned from this, because that?” He motions to the arena behind him. “That’s how you play GridSlam.”
Frank is shaking. He’s this fucking close to decking the motherfucker. Novice? He hasn’t been a fucking novice since age fucking 11!
(a story about heated rivalries, mourning your loved ones, and cheating death)

Summary
Of course Adam's angry all the time. Why wouldn't he be, with all the shit that he went through? Anyone would be.
What gets him angriest, though, is that the one person in the world who could even possibly begin to understand him is also the one person he's pissed off at the most.

“It makes it really hard to avoid me when I show up at your workplace, huh?”
“I am not–” He drops his voice, “We are not doing this here.” Gerard tells him sternly, and Frank nods gravely.
“I wouldn’t dream of it, Father Way.” Frank says with a glimmer in his eyes. “Not the time, nor the place, right?”
Gerard fixes him with a glare. “Right.”

The Science of Sleep by chimneythunder

Summary
It’s 2011 and Frank Iero’s life is pretty average until the night where he starts getting dreams about a strange, apocalyptic California where there’s rayguns, grey corporations and terrorists who use art and colour as a weapon. Interesting and fun at first, but the more he dreams about this world, the more he starts to wonder if it really is a dream... and the deeper he gets into this futuristic world, the more it seems to affect his life in the present day.
And just how exactly does everything all seem to link in with that douchebag black-haired artist who sits in Starbucks every day?
(Set in the Danger Days world but not necessarily following the canon established by the album and music video's.)
