**PLEASE LOCK- UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP**

[ewbluey]

Bringing it back to the petition topic, I think it's a bit unrealistic and invasive to start a petition to bring back the band when they've all collectively decided it'd be better to break up. There have been some speculations about how it was only Gerard who decided this, which-- at the time-- seemed appropriate given that the rest of the guys followed suit with their "thank you's" a day or even a couple days after the original announcement.
But they've all got different priorities and us, being good faithful fans, need to respect that.
I'd like them back as much as anyone, but to get a lot of people to sign a petition for a reunion that most likely won't happen will only get hopes up and bring everyone down further.
For now all we can do is respect their chosen paths and maybe later on they'll do something together. And we have to remember that just because they broke up doesn't mean that they're not friends anymore.

Yes. So much yes!

I agree with this so much. I do miss them but I wouldn't ever want to feel like we're forcing them back together.

And yeah, maybe in like 10 years they'll have an awesome band reunion? /Justkeepshoping!

Wow, sorry I've been so absent lately. I was enjoying my summer but I've just started school! It still seems this thread is moving quite slowly, but I'll keep checking up on it every few days. There's nothing much to report on, but I'm happy the MCR guys are going about their lives and not letting the whole break up hurt their endeavors.

You know what I hate, and this is brought along by the break up
All the crap Mikey has been getting for Sarah Em.
I am also highly worried about him. In a picture of him and Sarah, you can't see it very well, but on his wrist it looks like a cut mark

I haven't been on here in like a year whoops

Honestly I don't think he'd get to that level from this. More than likely it's just a accidental scratch or the lighting. Maybe even just a crease.

To add on to what Ayngel said: Mikey's been through some tough stuff in the past and has worked through it. The stuff he went through that brought him into a really depressed state was quite complicated. Something as small as a relationship wouldn't push him that far again, I would think. Plus, he could easily get out of it if it was too toxic and what-not.
(A little side-note: I'm sure Gerard knows he's in a relationship and if he saw that Mikey was kind of going down again, he'd totally speak up and say something to Mikey. It's Gerard. xD)

can we all take a moment to appreciate Gerard's selfies every Friday tho like its hard for me to believe he's 36 omf

[mitchypoosays]

I actually forgot he was 36. DUDE GERARD'S COFFEE SELFIE. It killed me I swear. I was fangirling the whole week. I can't wait for the next.

And in completely unrelated news, I am crying my freaking eyes out because Pierce The Veil was in Manila (where I live) and I couldn't go. Still crying, though. And also I want to tell everyone that I broke my pinky finger while boxing and now it looks like Gerard's. We seriously need a break from all this seriousness. Lets talk about Gerard's selfies and my awkward Gerard pinky finger.

[jasperco]

Selfie Friday is glorious~! But what happened to this week's? I kept looking for it there were only a couple pictures of a bonfire or something he was at. xD Even my mom was excited about it.

[ewbluey]

Selfie Friday is pretty much all we have to look forward to nowadays (not trying to be negative just seriously), we have Frank and Death Spells and his new stuff but I'm not a big fan of DS to be honest. And Mikey's doing some music stuff which will be interesting because I really want to hear him sing.

I also hate all the stuff Mikey's been getting for his relationship, I'm not a big fan of Sarah but I definitely don't like that people just insinuate that Mikey cheated on Alicia, I mean, for a while I'd noticed Mikey had stopped wearing his wedding ring and I kind of guessed that something might've been up between Alicia and him, then all the sudden he was wearing a ring again so I assumed he just put it back on but that was a couple of months before the whole Sarah thing happened, so I'm assuming that the "second" ring was for Sarah not Alicia, which would also mean that he didn't cheat and they most likely just got a secret little divorce.
I also don't buy all the "tweets" left my Lyn-z and Alicia talking about the whole scandal because if you look on their accounts those tweets aren't there and were most likely faked by someone with the right computer/photoshopping skill.

I love Mikey and I will defend him.
