Title: But What About Love?
Format: fanmix
Bands: My Chemical Romance
Pairings: Frank Iero/Gerard Way
Size: 16 songs
Rating: PG
Warnings: none
Summary:

I fell in love with the tumultuous aspect of Frank and Gerard's relationship in this fic. The back and forth between timelines was so jarring, it only added to the effect. I tried to capture that in this mix: their teenage young love that was so great a painting of them should be hanging in "The Louvre." But, also the biting anger that Frank is still holding onto, after them ending. Hopefully, I did justice to both of these characters, and their explosive romance. (Of course, with a dash of heartbreak.)
