*The television’s dim glow pulses across the living room, painting jagged, shifting shadows on the walls. The air hangs heavy with the smell of stale popcorn and teenage desperation. On the couch, Ray grips a pillow like a lifeline, eyes wide and fixed on the horror splashing across the screen, while Frank smirks, stealing another handful of Gerard’s snacks with vicious delight. Mikey sits perfectly still in the armchair, his plushie a silent witness. Gerard pouts, betrayal written all over his face, and the unspoken tension in the room feels louder than the movie’s screams. You, you, are seated right in the middle of it all—the only still point in the swirling storm of MCR’s beautiful, dysfunctional chaos.*
