I'm Gonna Give You What You Need - Comments

i just caught up completely and this fic is so good!! i love the character development and i love how Jitters has become a more confident person. at first i thought patrick would freak out and be jealous of Jack but i'm glad he's encouraging their friendship .. Jack still does give me the vibes that he might try something with Jitters though. idk i can see Jitters turning to him if she and Patrick ever reach a low point in their relationship, but that's just my opinion. anyways, i hope you update soon because i really do love this story and your writing :)

I've finally caught up and I can now say I absolutely love this story! I used to love Bam Margera, I was obsessed with him when I was younger, and this fic reminded me of how much I liked him lol Jitters and Patrick are perfect. I love the way that you had their characters develope through the story. I really enjoy stories where I can see the characters grow from experiences or change a way of thinking because it seems more realistic. I think you did a great job with the characters. Also I like that Jack is in this story, you caught his personality perfectly. I can't wait for the next chapter!!

@ bobobo
Bahaha! I am so glad I was able to help! I can't wait for more! :)

@ alyiscool
Oh my god thank you so much! I hope you like it! Let me know what you think

this is like my fav fic ever i honestly love it so much .. every thing about it is great .. i just wanted to say that (even tho im not caught up yet)

@ Flickering Lights
thanks!! I'm hoping to work more Bam in from now on

im loving how jitters is slowly progressing and becoming more confident through out the book and its good to see bam again keep up the good work as always

@ leah94rose
wow, oh my god I know exactly what I want to do now.
Holy shit, you seriously don't know how much you just blew my mind! Thank you so much! I think that I showed a little bit of maturing in this last chapter and I hope you like it! I feel like I rushed it a bit, but no one's commented on the last chapter so I don't know haha

@ bobobo
I'm so sorry that happened to you /: I've gone through similar abuse as well. Some people don't handle it very well either when they see something like that happening which can be heart breaking in itself. You could possibly just draw from your own experiences. You could have Jitter's possibly go through some of the same things, maybe she ends up maturing, has a realization and forgives her cousins, or beat them to death lol. It's hard though because Jitter's has such a dense character, lots of different layers going in her personality. So I bet you're thinking you want to do something with regards to her cousins in a way that still shows Jitter's character without making it seem like its something so different from her personality

oh no i totally don't see it as mean it actually helps me a lot! i know he is a little controlling but i guess as the writer it's a little hard for me to pinpoint examples so this helps a lot!! and yes emotionally controlling totally makes sense. that wasn't mean or offensive at all i actually love any and all comments you make!

“I just really want you to come back on tour with me, babe.”

“Patrick-”

“Meagan comes to visit like once a week with Bronx-”

“That’s Pete’s kid-”

“Sometimes she comes alone. And Marie-”

“Patrick, they don’t really have demanding jobs-”

“But if you can work from home you can do the same on the bus, can’t you?”
i personally find this piece of text a little emotional controlling ( i know that doesnt make sense but anyway) like his is expecting Jitters to do the same like the rest of the girlfriends even though she probably works more then he does, i dont mean to come off mean its just something that i picked up on cant wait for the next update

@ leah94rose
I totally see where you're coming from! Feel free to ask for more details about anything; seriously, sometimes you help me come up with more writing when you get my wheels turning. I've actually been thinking about making her deal with that because I think you made a comment about that a while ago but I'd have no idea how to implement that. I feel like I struggle with it because my cousins have abused me and my mom knows about one and she did nothing about it. He still comes around and is really polite to me but I don't feel threatened by him anymore if that makes sense? I think it's because I'm older. Which is crazy because I know he's abused other family members since me, but again, no one did anything. So it's kind of hard for me to come up with something, you know? I'm totally open to detailed suggestions though and I would love to hear what you're thinkin'

@ charmbaby12
Thank you! I think of you every time I write; you're actually one of my biggest motivators because I know you'll comment and give me feedback! I kind of realized I had strayed away from Bam too so I'm definitely going to work on that. How do you see him as controlling? Like what kind of situations? I feel like it's hard for me to tell and I need examples to follow up with lol

I loved the last two chapters and I only just relived you updated as it was a very quick update. I really like the progression that jitters has had and you have done it very slowly but it is noticable. And I do miss the envolment of bam and rest of the gang as that was the main reason why o started reading this story but I have grown to like Patrick even though I do find him slightly controlling in certain parts but anyway I love the update

@ bobobo
oooo! I always love to get the back story about how you mold your characters. I 100% believe that attitude of Soul Punk era Patrick. Totally confident.
And yes I meant face her fears with the cousin stuff. I'm glad she's starting to deal with it again. I mean it's terrible but it adds for more growth you know!
I'm not sure if you are portraying him correctly. I'm more familiar with Alex, but I was a fan of All Time Low for a while when I was younger but not so much anymore haha. I don't know if you portray him correctly but he is a great character! You do a good job of distinguishing your characters well. They all have distinctive personalities.
As far as what I think should be going on next I am not sure. You've seem to have set the tone for some stories (Friendship with Hayley, Jitter's flashback to her cousin, etc.) that I am looking forward to!

@ bobobo
I like how you've included him and I feel like he was perfect to add in and a good friend for jitters

@ Flickering Lights
thanks! I've actually just updated this week after a month or so haha glad you like it! How do you feel about Jack?

Wow it's been a while since I've been able to read this book but ive finally caught up and I still love it! I can't wait for more! Keep up the good work!

@ leah94rose
That's such a good question! I have no idea, I actually haven't really thought about that (which is probably why im so wishy-washy when i write -_-)
There's this guy I've been friends with for a few years I suppose. We haven't dated because I feel like we work together really well and in my selfish manner I want to have fun before I settle down with him. I kind of molded his protective and reassuring manner into Patrick. Also specifically Soul Punk era Patrick. He seemed totally confident and had this aura of "I don't give a fuck anymore" while he was a solo artist. I can go into more detail if you want but I wasn't sure how much you were looking for haha.
Also I'm so glad to hear that about Jack! Not necessarily that he makes you nervous but because it seems like he'll be a character that's going to stick around finally. I realized that I was just name dropping a lot and not building characters up which is just kind of a waste of writing.
Do you mean face her fears in the sense of confronting her cousin with the abuse or something? I'm actually looking to thicken the plot and stop writing as many filler chapters so if you have any ideas let me know!!!! (also, I'm not sure how familiar you are with All Time Low, but if you are do you think I'm portraying Jack decently? I'm feeling insecure about that)

@ bobobo
This next chapter was fantastic!!! I was wondering if Jitter would have to face her demons again soon. I think the chatter before this with Hayley was a good side chapter, detailing Hayley's problems more
. I don't know why but Jack makes me nervous. I'm always afraid he's gonna try to pull some moves on Jitter's. I have a question: who are your main inspirations for Patrick? I'm assuming Patrick himself but I'm curious if there are other individuals in your head who inspire the character of Patrick in this story
