Good Riddance - Comments

@ freedove
Thanks a lot, glad you liked it! :)

I absolutely LOVE this! You made me cry when I read the letter! I also love how you put my two favourite bands together AND I love how Good Riddance ties in with the story so well :D that made really happy

I'm the opposite. My brain gets excited and bubbles start popping out of it all over the place like in a mind map. I especially like coming up with a ton of increasingly ridiculous ideas and bombarding the person with them ha ha. It's the best fun ever.

I do find it a little hard to actually write the ideas, though. My brain poo-poos the idea of working tediously to describe scenes that are perfectly clear in my head but which I seem to have no words for.

stawa: Thank you! :)

Annalia: Oh I love to discuss stories, but rarely have the chance to; so it's mutual!

Can't do Gerard's POV 'cause then I'd kind of have to write hetero. :P Uh..no, I'd get bored in 2 seconds if I wrote that. Band member + random girl is not my thing, either to write or read (nothign against it, just not my cup of tea). It was just background story for this, but it doesn't interest me enough to write about it. There's not much to say, anyway, Gerard just fell in love with a girl he studied with, and he saw every day -while he saw Frank 4 times a year with luck. He tried to fight it because of Frank, but in the end couldn't. *shrugs* I don't like what happened, but I'm always writing stories when they're together forever so when i got this idea I said: "Why not? Let's write something a little different!". Then I had to add Bob so I wouldn't leave Frank alone, that was too much for pansy!me. I prefer to leave this as it is. If I ever wrote a sequel -probably not- it would be a Frob. If not, I've written and hopefully will write others stories where Gerard and Frank are together to make up for this. :D

I wish I could write things just because, or take requests, but my brain sucks. It doesn't work if I try to force it to come up with something. Like, for example, writing challenges or prompts? They null my brain most of times. :( The only way I can write is if a random idea pops up in my head. Sadly, it doesn't happen too often...

I like how you're willing to have discussions about stories. I find talking about stories and how to write better is the fun part about writing on a site, and not many people seem to do it. I'm glad I found you :]

<3

(Frank's definitely not gonna try to get Gerard back xD). <---- This disappointed me. -Sad face-

Buuuttt you should write a version from Gerard's POV falling out of love with Frankie and into love with the girl then so I can know WHY. Please?

I just loved this :) It was amazingly written and beautiful and all that.. You should do more stuff like this :)

Well, maybe some day there will be a Frob sequel for that and I'll make you love Bob! (Frank's definitely not gonna try to get Gerard back xD). I prefer Gerard too, but in this particular story I felt it had to be this way...

Maybe I'd feel better about it if you made me love Bob like you made me love Gerard. But I'd probably still vote Gerard, just because haha.

And yeah, Bob's pretty cool, all cute and shy and always backtracking and scowling at cameras haha.

Well, not BEG him to take him back, and Crash is too strong a word. But he should change Gerard's mind in a dignified way. Hmph. lol.

Hahahahaha. but Frank crashing the wedding would have been too un-original, even for me. xD Also, it didn't seem right after how things happened. If Frank had done something wrong then yeah, it would have made more sense for him to go and try to get Gerard back. In this case distance ruined things and Gerard fell in love with someone else; so I thought Frank needed to have some dignity, couldn't go beg him to love him back. And...Bob is always my second best for Frank after Gerard. :D

Mm, yeah, crash the wedding lol.

I guess it's safe now. I was going to say that I'm not completely satisfied with Bob over Gerard — I still feel sad lol. Gerard was so sweet. You did too good a job at making him seem perfect. I'd rather see Frank put on his determined hat and go win him back hahaha. Maybe you should write that.

I read this one on Live Journal and really liked it. It's very emotional.
