    Summary

    Modern day cafe AU

    Frank Iero is a barista who at one point really, truly enjoyed his job at the local cafe. But the powers that be (unchecked capitalism) have turned his workplace into something soulless and miserable, a thing he has to get through to pay his rent on time. The only thing worse than the new corporate bullshit is the newest regular: a weird, quiet guy who camps in the corner all day on his laptop and gets under Frank’s skin like no one else.

    Summary

    St. Michael’s is where bad kids go to get better.
    Frank Iero doesn’t believe in “better,” and he definitely doesn’t believe in God.

    Father Way says he’s only here to guide him. Frank thinks he’s full of it. Until he starts realizing that not everything about faith is as black & white as the collar around Father Way’s neck.

    Summary

    It’s both Frank and Gerard’s first semester at The University. One is a late-coming freshman who would rather be anywhere but a lecture hall, and the other is a rookie professor trying to find his place in the world. What they have in common: BusComm101, Monday and Wednesday mornings from 10:00-12:00, and a predisposition for a sneaky love affair. Though Frank is battling demons that he thought he’d long since defeated, and Gerard is suffering from a seemingly-endless identity crisis, the two just might find peace in the chaos that is each other.
    ~

    “Do all your office hours appointments go like this, Professor?” Frank said, his voice barely a whisper. His eyes fixated on a single strand of hair that had fallen in Gerard’s eyes, and his heart rate jumped as he awaited a response.

    “You got me.” Gerard said with a grin, narrowing his eyes. He lifted his hands and shook them in a mimicked surrender. “I’m playing favorites.”

    “I’ll be your favorite any day.”

    Summary

    Nurse Iero is a fuckup. What else is new? But this fuckup deserves a special kind of punishment. And maybe in Ravencolm Hospital, servicing the prisoners in the adjoining penitentiary, he might find purpose again, maybe even peace. Turns out that's pretty fucking hard to do with a coworker like Gerard, with his inexplicable need to dress the way he does, and treat Frank like human flotsam. The rest of the town's creepy-ass denizens aren't helping, or the fact that it's in the middle of nowhere, without even a proper grocery store. Or maybe Frank just deserves to go through hell.
