my piece for @mcrswarmzine ! :) had so much fun making this and being a part of this wonderful project <3 i wanted to convey how a lot of us were only able to see the shows through streams and frantic liveblogging, but how even from thousands of miles away it still felt like we were part of it :3
the zine is still available to buy as a digital download and all proceeds are still going towards the Black & Pink charity if you are interested! 🪰
being in love with gerard way will have you saying things like "gerard is a beautiful name for a baby girl." it is not, but my brain certainly thinks so.
I love the symbolism of the mask being the "true" identity of a killjoy ... normally masks are used to shield a person's identity , but in Danger Days its one of the truest forms of self expression . When you leave battery city BL/ind. owns your face and your identity, so by making yourself a mask you're expressing your individuality in a way BL/ind. can't take from you . You die with your mask on because its the identity you crafted for yourself instead of the one better living bought . Which complements the fact that BL/ind. uses the drac masks to take away your identity . When they replace your mask with their own they literally take away your soul . You can take this headcanon from my cold dead hands
