Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?
(#) fallout_uk 2007-04-27
So this is the first story i have written a review about. I have followed this story from the beginning and i just love it so much. I should get a slapped wrist for not stating so sooner.
I love your style of writing and the twists and turns that emerge.
I end up sitting on the edge of my seat in anticipation.
Its amazing!Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?

This story is one of my absolute faves on here.
And despite not loving MY drama filled life,I do love how drama filled this story is and all of the twists you put into your story.
Hm...favorite Fall Out Boy Song:Grand Theft Autumn/Where is Your Boy?
Mainly because that song totally applies to my life right at this moment.Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?

"I'm glad you didn't kill me." That made me laugh. I both adore and despise that Molly is so dense at times. I am also sad to see that Patrick and Molly will never be, but I think that Pete (or at least the Pete you portray) will work well with this new Molly. Speaking of which, I adore the way you write Pete. You don't make him this obscenely self-centered Romeo like many people do, you add more to him, make him more human.
And I have been waiting all my life to answer that question.
My number one FOB song is actually a tie between "Sophomore Slump or Comeback of the Year" and "Gay is Not a Synonym for Shitty." "Sophomore Slump" has this feel to it that is so full of honesty, but still so "we are who you want us to be," and I love it. As for "GINASFS," I love the concept, the prospect that it might be about a boy rather than a girl (especially with the last chorus), and the way it's got kind of a slow feel underneath the fast melody. Plus, when Patrick sings "I traced your shadows on the wall now I kiss them whenever I'm down," there's this quiet desperation in his voice that chokes me up. It's awesome.
So there's that. I absolutely love this story, I look forward to alerts about it, and every time a chapter ends, I get all antsy and twitchy. So keep writing, I'll keep loving.Author's response
Never say Never. The kiddies have some time to maybe work out their problems. Thats the problem with children who think they're adults.
To me Pete IS human. He's more human then a lot of other people I see. He has his fuck ups and he lets us know that. Also part of me hates him a little bit. If you ask anyone who knows me (some people more so then others) tell me that I "am" Pete. and I think that's why I hate him--I'm not the biggest fan of myself.
The reason I asked is because I can not pick a favorite song of mine from their catalogue. Sophmore Slump is right up there and I fully plan on getting a tattoo in relation to that song one day (but thats because of a line in it not necessarily the entire song) but its not my total favorite. I love all their stuff too much, I was curious as to what others thought. Probably my closest to being favorite is: GTA or Thriller. I cry anytime I hear thriller like a lame ass and GTA is just so much fun, esspecially live when everyone sings along.
I'll write more tonight as I'm sick as a dog and won't be going to visit my bestest buddy this weekend :(Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?

"Pity. I liked them." - the quote staight outta B's mouth. haha.
GINASFS.- best song off of IOH.
Dark Alley.- best song ever. you know i cry everytime i hear it and you DO know that i cried when i read it in this chappy, right?
Hand of God.- Best FOB song ever. I can listen to it on repeat and never hate it.Author's response
that so is a line right out of my mouth. I said that shit the first time I heard Dance Dance too. ...as for the crying, try writing that. you KNOW me too--so imagine ME trying to write a character having that conversation with the Pan.Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?

Your update are seriously the best way to wake up/fall asleep depending on the doomed hours I work at the Pancakes slave house/IHOP. Which reminds me, for the longest time anytime I saw Infinity on High abbreviated (IOH), I instantly thought of pancakes and IHOP. Maybe, subliminally, thats why I work there now. Aside from all this, I still think you're amazing as ever. And I would have to say my favorite FOB song is "Calm Before The Storm", come on- with lines like "He's well hung and I'm hanging up" you seriously cannot go wrong.Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?

Keeping the bitchy A/N in mind XP....I really love how you've developed Molly's character throughout the story. From the beginning to this point in the story everything that she has gone through just hits the right chords. It doesn't read as too over the top, but just right. I can't wait to see how you develop the rest of the plot line. Good work!

Ok, so Pete wrote it?
That just makes things all kind of interesting. Seriously. If it's the case then there may be a direction here that I really didn't think you would be going in. Not that it would be a bad thing. It reeks of drama and, hey, we all love the drama.
And my favourite thing about this chapter was that it didn't make me cringe. Usually, when people write fics where they invent a character to take credit for song lyrics, it just makes me uncomfortable and just seems so contrived. But yours doesn't. Ever.
I hope you take that as the compliment it was meant to be
Hope that was substantial enough, and not just rambling nonsense :-)xAuthor's response
I love how everyone thinks I said Pete wrote the song. Pete only told Molly the song was written for her.
but thank you for the kind words. I can see how it could be confusing. Honestly, I got a little thrown off 'cause I can't find my damn cd booklet and I've heard "patrick wrote it." "Pete wrote it" 'patrick wrote it' etc etc. but...I'm gonna go with the one I've been "positive" of since the song came out.Would You Believe Me If I Said I Didn't Need You?

I can't wait to read the next chapter and find out who really wrote it.
I like Sunny. Humans are stupid.
Evie: "Me and You"?! That's not even a real bass line. Just a slide with two extra notes. Pah. ;)
Can't answer the fav FOB song question because I am too fickle. When it comes to bass lines it'd have to be along the lines of "Dance, Dance", "16 candles" and "I've got this ringing...".
