Summary
Gerard stopped with his cheek still stretched. He fixed Frank with a stare that looked goddamn crazy in the vanity lights, powdered rot and bruising distorting his face into something close to familiar but just off enough to send a jolt like an electric shock down Frank’s back. “Did you want makeup, Frankie? We could do makeup.”

Summary
Vic lifts a hand to Kellin’s jaw. Sea foam flecks his fingers when he pulls them back, damp and gritty, seeping into the cracks in his skin. There is no explanation for this—no earthly reason for his lover to cough up the Atlantic in their bed, for him to see something beyond Vic’s own sight, some vision that’s left them both cold and shaking on the floor.
--
A nautical horror AU.

Summary
They’re passing another exit, this one brightly lit and overcrowded with gas stations and fast food joints, and Vic can see the curve of Kellin’s throat illuminated blue and purple by neon lights, see them shift like stage lights as he swallows.
--

Summary
“You called for maintenance?”
John stares at the guy for a second. He’s gotta be a head taller, hair long and messy, tool belt slung low around his hips, flannel undone over a graphic tee so faded John can’t quite make out the print. And he does try.
--
In which John has a crisis preparing for his studio's annual Christmas Concert and Adam is his apartment's mediocre maintenance guy.

Summary
If it was five years prior, Gerard would close the space between them. He can still feel Frank’s hair ghosting between his fingers, still remember just how warm Frank always was, a living space heater whenever he pressed up against him. Frank wouldn’t be watching him like this back then, though. Gerard wouldn’t be this desperate to run.
--
After his career in LA falls apart, Gerard moves home to start fresh. He just plans to crash at his brother's apartment while he's getting back on his feet, but Mikey's roommate is Frank, and Gerard's suddenly confronted by the shards of the life (and love) he left behind in Jersey five years ago.
All he has to do is keep his distance and pretend he still isn't head over heels for Frank (and still terrified of commitment) until he can afford to move out. How hard can it possibly be?

Summary
It seems as if Gerard can’t go more than a minute without picturing drops of wax losing their shine as they cool on Frank’s tattoos.
He's starving for it.
--
Porny epilogue to Primadonna. Gerard meant it when he told Frank he could be into wax play.

Summary
“Up.”
Frank blinks at Gerard, not sure what he’s getting at, but then Gerard’s wrapping his hands around the backs of Frank’s thighs and lifting him, and he automatically clings to Gerard’s shoulders and raises his legs to circle his waist. He's sandwiched between Gerard’s body, still hot and sweaty and smelling like sun and the stage, and the wall, cool and unyielding behind his back.
--
"ProRev era. Gerard picks Frank up and fucks him against a wall."
