    That was amazing. I can't really say anything new; it's all been said, except i started reading this and... well, i had a similar experience at my MCR concert.

    Unfortunately, there were no sunglasses to take off (i...kind of hate those sunglasses, don't you? I think it's because they hide his eyes. They make him look like a Rock Star. Silly reasons, i know,) and there was no other language for him to yell 'I love you guys!' in, and no yell of 'i love you guys!', to restore faith while i was at that gig. But it was days later i think. I had avoided them, i had tried not to look at the posters, not quite daring to pull them down, and i had convinced myself that this band, they were just another one of those bands, one that i could fall for so hard and have the sense kicked into me so easily a few months later, and convinced myself that in the next few years there would probably be a long string of them, and i wasn't to worry.
    I can't remember exactly what kicked the real sense into me again. I didn't document it, didn't even tell anyone, just like i hadn't told the friend who was standing next to me in the far back corner of the stadium when i saw him walk onstage as the "god that reigned over whatever heaven rejected, all the fucked up things the world had to offer", and felt myself choke on my cheers. But something clicked again. Maybe it was a song. It probably wasn't Famous Last Words. It could have even been a photo when i skulked back onto the MCR-inhabited parts of the internet. But i woke up. The faith was back. It's back to stay now. If anything, it cemented it. I think maybe you can only believe in something with all your heart once you have managed to convince yourself why you shouldn't. Or perhaps i'm just quote-churning.

    Sorry. I just abused a comment by telling my life story.

    But i think you're a pretty damn amazing writer, you know?

    Oh my God.

    It was beautiful!
    The description, the flow of emotion, the hesitancy the fan was experiencing and the fluctuation in her prespective was beautifully executed.

    When she thought all hope had to be burned and dragged to the ground along with useless memories, it returned with only the view of his eyes. Shielding his temples has also shielded his passion in away, along with his smile. His beautiful smile.

    I usually don't comment stories/One-shots out of thin air but this... this has blown me away!
    Just... amazing.

    Thank you.

    Holy crap that was awesome.

    Every part of that was so realistic and believable, i can understand to a degree what its like to get really worked up about seeing a band and then be a bit underwhelmed by them.

    A god that reigned over whatever heaven rejected, all the fucked up things the world had to offer.
    Great line! An excellent way to describe him (:

    But then your whole world goes quiet.

    Hushed now, like the beating of a heart you can't feel anymore. The throb of a pulse that licks the underside of flesh that cannot be found.

    That part was great, i could just imagine the intense silence punctuated by the sound of the person's heart.

    As if the music was now meaningless. Like the crescendo of shattering glass; beautiful and chaotic but oh-so terrible in its brokenness.
    Wow! That comparison was beautiful, just....wow.

    I'd quote more but frankly i'd end up quoting pretty much all of it.

    The ending was perfect. Just when we think the faith is lost, there it is (:

    he smiles, he smiles, oh how he smiles. - perfect :D

    Awww Isa. I hope you're not disappointed at all when you go see them. Maybe I was lucky because I had no expectations when I saw them, but it was truly THE most amazing concert I've ever been to. I really think it'll be like that for you, because no matter what people say, they really ARE amazing.

    You know. Not to mention the fact that your writing completely and totally owns the world. Or that the descriptions are flawless. Or that you know exactly how people think. Yeah. Aside from all that.

    This was just...beautiful.

    I don't know what to say to that.
    Because it was such a true, emotional piece of writing.
    It was like I completely stopped reading. I was there.
    I saw him smile, and it made me smile.

    That was beautiful.

    I must confess (mustn't I?) that I'm not all a lot into fanfics(or MCR fanfics, or MCR) to spill it all out, but some of the fanfictional stories around here are pretty damn good. Your is one perfect example of fine writing, one perfect situation when I can totally and absolutely forget all about anything and just think of it as of a regular story.
    great writing, great story, great everything. congrats.Clap

    Great...great.. story. And I think it really captured everything that people have been saying in the MCR thread. He hasn't changed. He's still the same.
