Friday night LOL
I find that I don't really care for most of the XMFC vids I've seen (not that I've seen a lot, I've mostly been followingkuwdora's guidance on fic and vids), because I am so leery of reading random fic in this fandom, so leery. And true enough many of the vids I've seen have really focused monomaniacally on Erik's past and…that's not what I'm interested in exploring. The movie isn't a story about salvation (and the idea of Charles being able to save anyone is laughable, hello, Charles Xavier has massive issues of his own, they just don't make for good summer celluloid), it's a story about survival, and I find Erik's choice at the end, even though I don't actually think it's terribly consistent with the writing up until that point, to be the more interesting part of the story. Giving up true love for what you believe? Yeah, that's heroic, and interesting to me partly because I doubt I could do it. So, in conclusion, the XMFC vid for me is still talitha78's Til The World Ends, it is the essence of the story that I am interested in. But Set Fire to the Rain manages to address Erik's past without getting bogged down in it, and I liked it a lot too.

My Chemical Romance (Killjoys 'verse)
Gerard hates his job in the art department at BLI. The only good part of his day is hanging with the smokers downstairs, especially Frank, who shares Gerard’s frustration and rebellion against the corporate norms. But when Frank is fired, Gerard quits his job too, and with Mikey’s and Ray’s help, sets off to find Frank, irritate Korse, and turn art into revolution.
I've been hearing about this fic for months, and now it's finally here! I've never read bandom fic before in my life, and I don't know that I will again, but this fic is so good, it's the postapocalyptic anti-corporate art-based music-making revolution fic that you never knew you needed in your life, but you do, YOU DO. ♥ The master post contains art and three fanmixes, too. ♥
