Translations of Blood

Wow. There's just so many good things that I want to say, I just can't even verbalize them. I think te first part that caught my attention was "anything as safe as a nightmare". That just rings true really deeply inside of me, and I think lots of other readers as well. The thought of nightmares, generally the scariest thoughts and representations of the worst fears and guilt that we feel as individuals, being safe… wow. There's just so much meaning in that, and the implications are through the roof. Just… intensity. And the way that you described the punk club was so descriptive without unnecessary words. I wanted to be Frank. I felt like I was him, and it was crazy. (I'm worried about him now being drunk. Nothing good will come of that.) and the parts with Gerard!! What can I even say to those… nothing that isn't obvious. He is intense, and the parts about him are intense, and I loved every syllable of his parts. I think it was in his part that you said something about shadows getting bigger when you din't look at them, and for me that was scarier than all of the other parts, I mean, I am laying on my side in bed in a dark room and I felt like murderer-Gee was about to come out and kill me dead (although I wouldn't be opposed to him doing anything to me). Thank you so much for the update, I think this might have been the best chapter as of yet. And one last thing, pleaseprettyplease don't let Lindsay start dating Frank. I like her as a real person and as a character, but her presence only ever adds frustration to fanfiction.

Oh my god, thank you so much, honey! Your review actually made my day :'D I'm so glad you get all the descriptive metaphors and stuff- I was kind worried people wouldn't. I'm sorry I scared you, though! Seriously, ahh...just thank you so much! I'm smiling like a crazy person right now :'D
Thank you (once again) for taking the time to leave such a wonderful and detailed review- they make my day!
