Very graphic. very disturbing. In other words, I LOVE THIS STORY SOO MUCH!!!!! XD i never thought that id say that about a torture story about Gerard but i am! your story's amazing!!
by the way, i have a few torture suggestions:
1) hang him from the ceiling by giant hooks in his back/feet/torso or wherever, and leave him there until his flesh rips open and he falls to the ground. then they can do it again in another spot and etc., etc.
2) you know the little delicate peice of skin on the inside of your mouth connecting your gums to your lips? have the blackbirds hold him down and take pliers and rip his lips from his gums or something, idk how to describe it well. then they can sew his mouth shut and when they feed him rip his mouth open causing the stitches to rip through his lips or something
3) or just good ol' fashioned teeth pulling
i know, im a little wierd, but please, keep this story going! its AMAZING!!
