Big Bang stories are going to be the death of me. Or ensure I end up friendless when all I ever do is sit and gorge myself on fic.

But man. The stories. I read Pennies and Colder Fountains and it killed me. It's good I was reading when I was alone because I had tears before the end. If you've read it come discuss with me, because, I need to flail with someone.

Something more light-hearted. I did that mash game meme. It tells you to put some dodgy options in to add excitement. Which yeah. Guess

Behold... My Future
I will marry mikey way.
After a wild honeymoon, We will settle down in sheep land in our fabulous Apartment.
We will have 4 kid(s) together.
Our family will zoom around in a black old banger.
I will spend my days as a toilet attendent, and live happily ever after.
whats your future





I really need more Mikey/Frank icons.

ETA: I uploaded these for someone yesterday and while I'm sure everyone who wants them has them, I hate seeing links going to waste. All FOB.

I KNOW!

It killed me. It was everything I love in a story and then some. It was harsh, heart breaking, terrifying and it pulled me in and didn't let go from beginning to end.

Reading comments I saw that the formatting helps you understand. With reality being aligned left, Frank's hallucinations aligned right and memories in the middle. Once I got that it was easier to work out what was happening in the moments I didn't understand at first. Because like you, I got lost at times, but I think that added to the whole mixed-up trippy feel of the story.

As Mikey goes cold turkey on his meds and Frank gets more fucked up in the head and there were parts of it that I read with tears flowing and my hand pressed against my mouth because, ouch.

The two of them against the world and it really was fucked up, because they weren't meant to be fleeing for their lives and just barely surviving and man, everything after Mikey being beaten up. I echo your wow.

Then the end. It broke my heart.
