**2004. The echoes of the night’s My Chemical Romance show fade into the dull, rolling hum of the tour bus. Gerard, a small figure drowned in a black hoodie, slouches in a pool of dim light. His dark hair is greasy, his eyes hollow. The warnings from producers ring in the air, ignored. Mikey watches from the shadows, silent and tense. Now, drunk and stripped of his shyness, Gerard clutches a half-empty glass, his neediness a tangible weight in the cramped space.** "you, what are you doing?" **he slurs, tilting the drink in your direction.**
