Hero

I love this fic, and that’s really why I’m writing this. So basically, there are a select few people in the world with superhuman abilities. Think X-Men. Frank has two abilities, and thus he must travel from New Jersey to California to go to this school for rich snobs. Frank isn’t rich, just some punk gay kid. And guess who happens to be his roommate? That’s right. Gerard. And Gerard doesn’t seem to like frank, but is there more to it?
The plot is well constructed (or at least seems so), there are minimal grammar and speling mistakes, and it’s not hard to read but you still have to think about what you’re reading. You have to process it, because there are many levels to the well-rounded characters. If you don’t, you’re screwed. End of story. I really loved the overall structure, and the how there was time between events, it wasn’t BAM BAM BAM! I like action stories, I really do, but this is a good change of pace.
Um… I guess I’ll rate. 8/10, 4/5, whatever floats your metaphorical boat.

Hm… This fic. When it first started, I was really into it. I loved it, whorshipped the computer it was written on. Now… not as much. Basically Frank is the abused, cliché emo kid. Bullied as fuck, whatever. Then Gerard Way, his step-dad’s son comes to live with him. Um, they don’t click. My understanding is that it IS going to be a Frerard eventually, and I’m pretty sure that’s considered incest, but if Waycest exists… I’m down with some good waycest, so whatever.
There aren’t really any grammar/spelling issues, but like in most angsty fics, the same thing is repeated over and over again! Arg! I just can’t fucking stand that! (Annoys me greatly, I have to apologize.) Yeah… I fell out of liking that fic. It’s a huge part of Ficwad culture, so I read it, but I have to sometimes drag my eyes across the screen. I don’t think that it’s necessarily the writing that’s bad, it’s damn well fine, it’s just not that entertaining of a plot and it has this big hype around it. To me, that hype makes me want to read it and then I judge it harsher than I would any other fic. I don't understand why it was rated as original, it should be rated with ambiance. It's well written, just not really my type of thing.

It’s a high school Frerard! But look again, it’s actually a good one!
It’s quirky, random and undeniably very cute. Gerard, the new student and sexually ambiguous. Frank, the gay kid who wants to win Gerard over. So naturally, he asks his best girl friend how girls follow the girl code to get a guy. She produces to him a list of 20 ways a girl can use to get a guy, thus the title.
There aren’t a lot of errors in technicalities that I remember. Mostly I remember I being funny as fuck and cute. A good, well-earned 8/10
