Summary
“I don’t know you anymore, Frank. Like, what is this? What happened to you? And you want me to sell you my fucking bookstore?”
***
or: Ten years ago, Frank and Gerard had a summer fling that felt a lot like love. The last decade hasn't been easy for either of them, and now they're both leading lives they never planned for. Gerard is the reluctant owner of a failing bookstore left to him by his grandmother, staying sober and keeping the place open and not doing much else. Frank is a reluctant corporate broker, white-knuckling sobriety by not staying in one place too long, buying buildings for companies he doesn't respect.
When their current lives intersect over six weeks, they confront who they are, who they were, and the feelings they never fully grew out of.

Summary
Frank Iero works at Flirty Girl Fitness, where he specializes in yoga, breathwork, pole conditioning, and connection-based movement, including a class on tantric foundations.
Gerard Way is a burnt-out comic artist who clicks on the website by chance. Frank’s profile, however, is not a chance. One look becomes two. Curiosity becomes need. And suddenly he’s Googling “tantric foundations meaning for dumbasses” at 11:05 pm while trying not to panic.

Summary
In 1892, Gerard Way fled New York City to become a lighthouse keeper in Nova Scotia. It would have been the perfect opportunity to escape the unpleasantness of his past, had it not been for the beast that stalked outside his door and the mysterious string of deaths that followed him.
