《Finding a Way | Adopted by Gerard Way》Introduction
Advertisement
Yes, I've read them all. Or... most of them. All those "Adopted by fill-in-the-blank-with-whatever-fandom-you're-dedicated-to". It's been an escape from my own sad life, living vicariously through these characters who's dreams always come true; being adopted by their favourite band! And yes, maybe you've read them all as well, so my story may not be anything special, but it's special to me.
My name is Evelyn. Just Evelyn. I don't care for my former last name, they were never my family anyway.
As you've probably guessed, I am an orphan. I live in a foster home. I'm sad, I'm anxious, I feel unloved in this place I'm supposed to call "home". Just what you'd expect from another one of these stories. Sorry, I'm cliche. What's not so cliche, though, is that I have hope. Things will get better one day, right? I'll be adopted by a loving family who will see the best in me when not many other people could. But, for now I'm just a socially anxious 13 year old girl with a crippling fear of rejection. That may be why I rarely leave my room.
• • •
so this is just my take on an Adopted (by MCR/Gerard Way) Fic.
it's set in 2006 but I was a small child back then so this isn't going to be historically accurate. she reads fanfic, first of all. is that a 2006 thing?? Idek
my goal word count for each chapter will be about 1000-1600 words. wide range, but I don't know how this is going to go yet, so I'm giving myself space.
POV is Evelyn's unless otherwise stated. Gee is single, Bob doesn't exist.
hope you enjoy :)

Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
