"I wish I was named after someone cool," Will said. "You're named after that guy from the bible, right? Why can't I be named after someone?"

Jonathan looked at his brother. "That's because you already are named after someone. You're named after Ziggy Stardust," he said, ruffling Will's hair, making it a mess. "You're named after one of the most flamboyant idols of rock these days. You should be proud."

"But Ziggy is just the nickname you gave me," Will said.

"So? Ziggy is the name that you can own if you really wanted to." Jonathan pulled his brother in for a hug. "C'mon Ziggy, you can make history with your own name."

Will smiled.

"Or you can base your future off of Bowie's character. Either way, you have a bit of a glam rocker in you," Jonathan finished.

There was a moment of silence as Will thought.

"I am named after Bowie's character," he said proudly, "and I take inspiration from Ziggy all the time, but I would also like to write my own story."

"Cool cool," Jonathan said, going back to the tapes that were in front of him. "So... Ziggy still?"

"Of course," Will said with a grin, starting to continue his drawing.

I've been waiting for the Umbrella Academy since I was 15 because it's literally been in development (was originally supposed to be a movie) for that long and I feel like I just wasted the past 13 years of my life being invested in it for them to fuck it up spectacularly at the final hurdle

[acaesic]

if yapping in the tags were a job id be jeff bezos

[our-dumbass-of-sorrows]

Ok so I swear there is an interview or something where Gerard says the demolition lovers are reflections of the masculine and feminine sides of himself but I cannot find it, can someone please tell me if I'm making this up or not??

[fagdykebassboy]

its actually not a choice a want or even a fucking need for me at this point i have to start a band i dont have any choice in the matter actually

[notruevampire]

I could never be in a band because I couldn’t do those dramatic band photos where the camera is on the ground. That’s my worst angle

[angelg0r3]

so im like deeply in love with basement gerard (like who isnt?)

Anways ways hes this pathetic high school boy with no friends, joined the choir, and just straight up smells but of course your have the slightest crush on him cuz how can you ignore a cute face like that! Soon word got out about your little crush so gerard asks you if youd like to come over to his place after school, of course you agree because hes just a sad loser boy and it would crush his sad loser heart if you said no.

so your over at his house in his room (the basement) hes digging through piles of clothes, cds, and dvds so you can watch a movie together but unfortunately he never finds it (he did he just had other plans) so he grabs the goriest filthiest movie he owned and said “i cant find it, my brother probably stole it, we can watch this instead!” He was already so hard just from having you in the room and with him. When the first gore scene flashed on the screen he bucked his hips and groaned, you just ignored it thinking he was just trying to get comfortable, but one scene after another it happened again and again, soon a sex scene was displayed on the screen, gerard had a blanket over his lap and was was palming himself through his jeans hoping you didn’t notice him doing that, but of course hes wimpering and bucking his hip even more so you decide you needed a break for him so you say “uhm i need to go to the bathroom ill be back soon…” but of course your just wandering around the house trying to get a break. But when you get back gerards cock is out and hes jacking off the remote is in his hand its his hand and hes replaying the sex scene but specifically the part where the girls head gets cut off and theres blood spilling everywhere, his hand thats on his dick is going faster and faster, he cums and doesn’t even notic your int he room

~🦝🎸

im going to explode BASEMENT GERARD <33333333333

[sneefsnorf]

i have a question about Gerard Way

so like. i remember seeing my dash freak out cause they said something about them being... some version of trans? i know theres an interview from 2014 where he says he goes by he/they but im looking for more recent stuff. is that true or am i mistaken

honestly i have no idea im not really that invested in celebrities personal lives or identities. a lot of people use he/they and he doesnt seem to mind, plus hes always been really gnc and performative with gender (see the entire swarm tour). there is definitely some more stuff out there where he talks about identity and stuff if you want to go look for it but i dont have it with me. im not the person to ask sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[not-bluejay]

unforeseen consequences of the gerard way wall:

they watch me sleep

my mother won’t enter my room bc she’s unsettled by “that gentleman”

i am forever banned from the colour printer (i saw that one coming)

gerard way appeared in my room last night and told me mcr5 is coming (it’s real guys trust me)

[gerardpilled]

i get why the story about gerard watching the planes from the ferry has circulated because its like an evocative image and everything but its kinda crazy to me that its just not true and hes never said that and people don't ... know that? theres that whole part in the kevin smith smodcast where he and mikey are talking about how he was watching from the shore and even ended up in a photo in the local newspaper the next day and the entire time i was listening to it i was just like . how have i been a fan for seven years and never heard anything but the ferry story

It’s so crazy!!!!!!! Brian the king of misinfo!!!!!! No one talks about the actual story, and I’m really surprised because it’s lot like he just said it once lol. I think he even mentioned that he just went out of his way towards the shore to get a better view because that’s what everyone was doing? He might have saw the 2nd plane hit, but then, most people did…

Like you said, I think the ferry story is more visceral, and if you’re looking at his life as a piece of fiction like a lot of fans prefer to do, narratively speaking it feels more punchy. If they were to make a biopic of mcr I bet his ass would be on the ferry when the planes hit for that more cinematic experience.

1, 3, 9, 20, 25, 27, 28, 39, 45, 47 SORRY THIS IS SO MANY LOLL

o my goodness ok im putting a cut here for everyone's sanity cause all these questions got me excited

Do you have a favorite place near you to “touch grass”?

theres a little woodsy park near my house just within easy walking distance which is easy to get into regardless of time of day or night and has an incredible hill where you can sit under an oak tree in the tall grass and watch the sun or the moon come up or set depending on time of day and year and i love love love it one of the only good things about my town i go up there for my Rituals And Things gkjhsf

3. If you could see any extinct species in the wild, what would it be?

im a sucker for megafauna id love to see an irish elk or an aurochs or a woolly mammoth that would be so so cool

9. Do you have a favorite nature photo you’ve ever taken?

here's some of the best photos ive ever taken in my life, and then some pictures from the hike back to the cabin when we realized the sun was setting sooner than we thought it would and it was about to get WAY too cold for how we were dressed

20. What’s your favorite poem or song lyric about nature?

definitely a gerard manley hopkins!!! he's my fave poet ever and half his work is about nature. i'm torn between two, tho: i think my favorite of all time, really my favorite poem entirely, is the windhover (ive been trying to copy and paste it here without ruining the formatting but it is not working alas so you must google it sorry), but the last stanza of another of my favorites of his poems, inversnaid, is also just. fucking killer

What would the world be, once bereft Of wet and of wildness? Let them be left, O let them be left, wildness and wet; Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.

25. What’s your favorite plant to grow yourself?

i unfortunately live in a terrible spot to grow stuff, the yard of my family's little house is like. straight dry clay and entirely shady, so my thumb has never gotten even the barest hint of green to it. one day id like to grow wheat or corn or some such tho

27. What’s your favorite outdoor activity?

honestly????? i love to just Sit And Observe. i used to love love love swimming in creeks and lakes and things, but obv i havent swum in anything for a very long time. hopefully i will again one dayy im also a big big fan of a fire for singing around. and to be honest shakespeare doesnt feel right unless its performed somewhere outdoors and beautiful now

28. What’s your favorite local animal you see all the time but still love?

ALL OF THEMMMMMM we get raccoons and possums and squirrels and mule deer and black tailed deer and crows and ravens and pigeons and rats and mice and apparently frogs i learned recently and newts and theyre all my best friends and i get so excited when i see them

39. What ecosystem do you consider your “home” ecosystem?

absolutely all american pacific northwest shit i love a temperate rainforest with redwoods and doug firs and such and then the deciduous layer underneath all ferns and moss and little creeks and then the harsh cliffs down to the beach all cold and foggy and windy. that's where i Belong easy peasy. i do also associate the more aggressively californian Beige Grassy Hills With Lonely Scrappy Little Coast Live Oaks or Valley Oaks On Top type biome with home and growing up, but its always been a little too harsh and dry and sunny for me here.

45. What is your favorite wildflower?

o god thats hard i love wildflowers. im a sucker for daisies, obv, and i love forget-me-nots and california poppies and indian paintbrush and columbine and and and

47. What is your favorite species of tree?

o no thats hard too!!!!! ummm probably oak trees, especially white oaks like the valley oak or the oregon white oak, especially the really big old wise looking ones, but i also adore sequoioideae and other conifers, unsurprisingly, and rowans and apple trees among others hold personal spiritual significance, and theres this specific kind of maple or sweetgum idk what it is but they grew outside the theatre i grew up in so they always make me nostalgic. OH and i LOVE the smell of california bay laurel thats the Good Summertime Smell for me

[jerseymuppet]

i might be stupid but. is the gothamverse a muppets batman au? is that what the thing in ur bio means? (either way plz do tell me abt it)

That would definitely be infinitely cooler than my idea! Gothamverse is the beautiful result of me playing arkham knight while waiting for an mcr livestream to start up and thinking ‘damn bitches from jersey are fucking insane! ....wait a minute’

It’s basically a silly little idea I came up last March with where all the mcr guys are from Gotham and what their villain origin stories would be etc. I followed the main Batman villain archetypes: extremist, anti-hero, camp, and serial killer, and I had a fucking blast! It’s very silly and just something I did for fun. I guess I can go a lil bit into it here.

full disclosure, I am psychotic and disabled and I do not believe in the vilification of mental illness or disability in media, all of these characters will eventually get the help they need. Batman at its core is about a mentally ill man helping others who have been failed by society and I will never forgive dc for making him into an overpowered, glorified cop.

Frank’s character (Francis ‘Frankie’ Stein) is the extremist (duh). He’s the son of a mafia boss who is steadily ruining their town with crime and Frankie just kinda snaps and kills him to take his place as the head of the family and try to undo some of the damage done. He has great intentions, he’s just very unyielding and kind of insane 💕 his moniker is Frankenstein! And his whole schtick is that he’s very hard (if not impossible) to kill. He’s also chronically ill and Jewish, these are not important to his character but they are important to me !

Mikey’s character (Micheal Way) is the serial killer. He’s a ‘sociopath’ (theres nothing actually wrong with him, people just suck and made him feel lesser and out of place :/) trying to fit in with everyday society but he always feels like something is missing and becomes a neuroscientist to try to find what exactly it is. He invents a machine (the empathsizer) that allows him to experience other people’s memories and emotions as though they are his own. From there he accidentally gets addicted to the chemical responses his brain has to doing that. And keeps doing it. Even after the testing phase is no longer accepting applicants. It gets worse after he experiences someone’s near death experience and starts chasing the high it gave him. Idk what his moniker is? It’s sandman for right now but that’s honestly so boring and uninspired.

Ray’s character (Raymond Ortiz) is camp but very loosely. He’s an engineer by day and a rockstar by night! He’s really only an engineer to save up enough money to pursue music full time but it’s hard because he doesn’t get paid that much. Winter hits and with it, cuts to his hours! So he’s forced to choose between rent and electricity. When he gets really sick as a result, he can’t afford a doctor. And when he wakes up with his hearing gone as a result, theres nothing he can really do but spiral into a depression. Until he realizes he’s a literal biological engineer. If he can’t fix his problem he can at the very least prevent it from happening to someone else! Research does cost money, so it’s very fortunate that Gotham has so many banks. His moniker is Dr. Megahurtz! His weapon of choice is his guitar, which has been retrofitted with sonic emitters to amplify and weaponize the hertz. Not enough to hurt, but enough to incapacitate.

Gerard’s character (Jules Moss) is the anti hero! She’s (yes I made Gerard’s character a trans girl, they took too long to make a trans character so I did it for them) has the same backstory as Gerard actually! On her way home from work she witnesses a terrorist attack, but instead of starting a band she decides to fight crime instead. She does so bad. Literally her first night out patrolling she gets killed by some priest who’s been driven insane by what he claims is an angel that’s ‘chosen him to impart gods will’ but it’s just a fallen star looking for a vessel to possess and the first guy it came across wasn’t dead lol. The star turns into a sword of pure light and that’s what Jules gets stabbed with, but also it fuses itself to her dna so she wakes up a few days later, schrödingers girl, with some scary new abilities and a voice in her head that definitely wasn’t there before. Her whole arc is her trying to find the guy that killed her and get revenge. Her moniker is stigmata! Because when she gets impaled it also goes through the palms of her hands and the wounds don’t heal.

but yeah that’s the bare bones of it all! I’m planning on making this into a comic series but the script is still being written at the moment! Thank you for letting me ramble about it 💕🥰

What do you think happened to Charlie during Emerald Twilight? Did he know what was going on or did his ring just suddenly not work while he's on some strange planet and now no way to get off, for like. Years.

oh theres actually an issue of quarterly (#3) that tells us what happened when the battery was destroyed the first time!! he was on a planet (Hwagaagaa) trying to stop an invading military force from taking over and he ignored the call to assemble bc he was busy, and then his ring cut out and he was stranded in the middle of a warzone with literally nothing, so he ran for his life and hid until some farmers found him and then bc gerard jones is gerard jones, charlie somehow teaches the farmers to become a fearsome military through the power of acting even though charlie is, lovingly, a bitch and a pussy. anyways these panels are interesting to me bc if you squint and ignore the author you can pretend that the subtext here is that charlie became an actor because he's running from himself and he wants to be someone better than he actually is but he chooses the escapism route instead of self-improvement which adds a layer to his alcoholism and dead brother guilt backstory

and this is where his bandanna comes from! its more of a cape but im ignoring that godbless

anyways they eventually repel the invaders through a war of attrition (the invaders go this sucks idc anymore and leave), and charlie roams around the planet teaching people about the wonders of Shakespeare. and then somehow he joins the darkstars so i guess he either got off planet somehow or john swung by and rescued him. and then he dies 👍
