Echoes in Paper - Comments

You know, this has to be the best frerard one-shot i've ever read in my entire life. It was amazing. It wasn't overpowered by sex or dirty passion(not that that is a terrible thing)... and it was just... I don't even know. sweet, adorable, and it made me think of not talking for a while. starting my own notebook(:

This was so beautiful and sweet. I adored it. I like your writing...A lot :)

It was beautiful. I'm not going to leave a long comment, though, but it most certainly was one of your more creative pieces, as well as twisted. I really never knew what was happening next. I loved it. =3 It was adorable, and amazing!

words can't describe how incredible this story was. everything felt so real, so.. wow..
this is definately one of my favorites..

sorry for just now commenting. when u first gave me the link to the story, i read some of it, but couldn't finish it bc i got in trouble as you know. but i was able to sneak a bit on the computer at one-thirty in the morning, and finished where i left off.

okay things about the story that im just going to ramble on about how much i loved it:
i thought the plot was so unique and interesting. the plot was just amazing, and i love how you made everything fit into place and have everythign worked out just perfectly. it all seemed so together and just real.

frank was such an amazing man in this story. he was so caring, so sweet, so loving. you can tell that he cared for gerard and was really willing to wait for him, it was so romantic.
gerard's character was simply amazing as well. him not talking seemed to work out just perfectly. it all went along amazingly.
telling the differences between the two men and how it seemed to strengthen the relationship was absolutely stunning, how you managed to work it out just right.

the notebooks were a great idea. i thought it was so cute and amazing when frank got his own notebook with gerard. that was just so sweet. everything was just so.. omg idk even, it was just amazing. truely amazing.

i loved this story so much, you are such a unique and amazing writer.
incredible.

Wow girl! You've never written a story that is less than amazing! Yet again, a brilliant job!

The idea itself was so original. It made me think about how lucky we are to have the gift of speech and throughout the story, i was thinking of so many different situations where it would be difficult to communicate if we weren't able to talk.

…looking to his left as a little boy thanked his Father for the chocolate ice cream. His mind gave him images of his own happiness with his parents and it made him look to his feet in some sort of a sad reminiscent echo.
This little scene made me heart melt. Just something so simple that poor Gerard never really fully experienced with losing his parents before his childhood was taken away from him.

Strange, not only because he was someone I’d never seen before in my life, but also because he was wearing plain white clothes.
The first thing i thought of was the outfits LeATHERMOUTH wore on thier tour last year! Haha! A woman possessed i have become.

Gerard didn’t know what he was going to do with it, but some part of him wished that the man wanted to keep it so that he could think of him clearer.
Aw bless! For some reason i thought this was one of the sweetest moments :]

"But the rules, you didn't explain the rules", the second one insisted
Haha! Reminds me of my brother when we play a game and he loses! Haha!
The psycho men reminded me of children in a way. I don't know if that was the way you wanted them to be portrayed, but it seemed to me like they were acting like kids. Especially with the conversation about the game.

You've done an excellent job yet again! Good luck with the contest! :]

P.S. I think i may check that movie out too. It sounds interesting.

I don't think I have ever read anything so heartfelt, so amamzing, so loving.
Something the really shows the meaning of love without haveing to say I love you.

It was more than amazing, wonderful. It was more than words can say.
Applause and an oncore will not do either.

I loved it.
I loved the detail, the time you took.
The way you made frank and gerard.
The way you showed how their love grew.
I almost passed out from my heart beating so fast when Gerard finally spoke to frank for the first time “Yes. I. Will.”.
Ahh I could have died with happiness.

This story shows true love to the purest.
How you capture so many things is truly undesribable.
You did an amazing job.
I loved it. I loved it. I loved it.

Oh my Gee.... that was a mix of pain, sadness, love, and passion.... and so much more. It was long and well written, no one could have done better. Very original story line and I thought it was magical in some ways, like the love between Gerard and Frank but the way you described it, nothing could compare to their love :) Write more like this, it was fabulous. :)

Wow, that was beautiful. I loved how Gerard's first words were when he accepted Frank's marriage proposal. Although the whole wedding proposal was really cliche and I could see it coming a mile off, it was still amazing. Which is what I liked about that scene. Wedding proposals should be cheesy and romantic. (:

The zoo was a really nice idea too. I just loved the whole idea of the story and I thought it was really beautiful so well done. (:

holy moly that was beautiful and well written i loved the entire story and how frank was willing to wait for gerard for the rest of his life to talk. and how he had to see the gruesome murder of his parents and was able to over come it

a second comment!!
well i did warn you that i was going to write another one, didn't i?
*chuckles*
In a glance, Gerard studied his facial expression in full detail as he opened the notebook to some random blank page; and he found nothing more than sweetness on that striking face. The same Paradise lingering on his lips was plastered along his gentle features. There were only the minimum details in the face that hadn’t been included in the painting, but that fact only made this man even more worthy of Gerard’s every smile, every gaze, every thought, every line of paint.

Wow... i actually found it amazing that Gerard almost had Frank's face down to perfection in the painting... it really meant that Frank had impacted him so deeply, only after two encounters!! how he made him smile and think about him... that was so beautiful, the way you put it. and it was clear that Frank thought the same too, especially when he pocketed the very paper that Gee gave to him for his order. they never knew what hit them, didn't they? *chuckles* how a chance encounter could change both of them so drastically, especially Gee... *sigh*

In there, they made love for the first time, taking a long time with the first kisses to prove to each other that they were there for the love and not for the pleasure. They already knew it, but it felt cosmic to feel it in the other’s body and kisses. Gerard always remembered that first night as a bright light in his heart and mind: the first time their skins touched entirely, the first day their hands explored hidden corners, the first night their fingers exchanged their purest secrets that no notebook could ever hide.

Oh hun. <3 i love the way you wrote this... how they made love to each other... how lust was not their main driving force, but love... Sometimes i feel that people spend too much time describing about the "lust" and not the "love" you know? Sex is overrated. Haha. I thought it was a good change... and it definitely created a very sweet atmosphere. Oh my, Frank and Gee are so adorable. <3

"Three whispered words formed a finally spoken answer that the notebook would never have, but that all attentive gods would hear."

Omg... that was so goddamn beautiful. damn i'm running outta words to describe your story. i better think of more. but anyway... that sentence was just so amazing. it was a turning point for the couple, for Gee... he finally spoke, after so many years... 19 years of silence... no sound, just written words... and Frank was the reason why he finally spoke... *sighs*

He came to me like an angel and saved me from a long gone past.

*sniff* I believe so too Gee. Frank was your angel. He saved you from a cruel past. But i believe, that you were his angel as well. <3

:arms:
*giggles*
I'm finally done.
This story was simply amazing beyond words. <3
And damn girl...
You never fail to touch me.

*giggle*
I'm taking your comment virginity!!!
*laughs*
Oh man oh man, i can never be able to tell you how much i love this story.
Cliche as it sounds, but...
<333
I'm glad i beta-ed it as well!!
I love u hun!!

Gerard. Smile. Please.
I don't need to tell you how much i awwwwed at this part do i?
that was so sweet, the way Gee knew how upset Frank was, about his "rejection"... in a way, Gee wanted those "lips of paradise" to fold back into a beautiful smile again... and i thought that sentence was the sweetest part of the story. <333

He wanted nothing more than just stare at the smile every second of his life, only to memorize and try to paint it in its magnitude. He knew it was impossible, as even his steadiest brush-strokes would never get closer to the true smile of Frank’s lips. It was unique in a way that no one would ever be able to reproduce it, in any imaginable way.
It's funny how people always only remember smiles, right? it's imprinted in the mind, especially the smile of someone you love. i love the way you made Gee try to memorise Frank's smile, it made it seem that Frank was so important to him that Gee wanted to "keep his smile" close to his heart. that was so amazing.

it was so sad, for something like that to happen to a 12 year old boy, and for Mikey to blame him too... that was so tragic. I can't imagine what it is like, to live in that kind of pain and suffering and guilt Gee went through. I'm glad Frank saved Gee. <33 I've read far too many Frerards about Frank being saved by Gee *and honestly, it gets a bit boring sometimes*, and this definitely made my day, when i first read it. It was something different, something to look forward to. For once, Frank was the bigger person... and Frank was the hero of the day.


Love. You. Always. Love you as you are. Love you because you’re strong. Love you because you’re unbeatable. Love you because you’re Gerard. I accept you. I. Love. Gerard.
It's amazing, how the most simple combination of words can mean so much and bring so much emotion. Dammit, you really know how to make someone tear, don't you? I could feel so much passion and love in this sentence. it's so overwhelming.

I love the Metamorphosis idea.

hehe.
I'm a bit biased aren't i.
but i truly loved the way you put it...
Frank had slowly taken his very own place inside Gerard and the latter believed in salvation. Frank was the spring Gerard needed to break free from the cocoon of his past. Gerard had matured into the beautiful butterfly that Frank had seen that he would ultimately become.
So freaking beautiful and touching!!!
I'm so happy it ended this way...

Beautiful story hun.
This is my favourite so far.
:hug:
