blasphemy! blasphem-you! blasphem-everybody-in-the-room!
So, guys. chebonne and I were thinking that what this fandom REALLY needs is an epic Gerard = Second Coming of Jesus AU!
I mean, can't you just see it? The way they find out was not particularly exciting. It isn't like Gerard trips and falls, nearly going head first into a lake and instead managing to walk on water. ("Look," Frank said. "Gerard's hatred of being clean gone to its logical conclusion!") And it isn't like God comes to him in a dream and lets him know whats what (which, by the way: thanks for nothing.)
They actually figured out that Gerard was the newest manifestation of Jesus Christ, our lord and savior, on a hotel night just after Gerard got sober, like, a month. Gerard was bitching like had PMS or something and Frank threw a water bottle at his head, just to shut him up.
It didn't work -- it was just batted aside. Frank groaned in frustration and turned away when Gerard kept on whining.
After a moment, though, Gerard spluttered and said, "Hey!" He sounded hurt and offended, actually, causing Frank to snap his eyes open. "That's not funny!"
Now the water bottle he had was filled with a dark red liquid -- it looked like wine.
And oh, hahah. Pete can be the Antichrist! Most hilarious battle for the souls of humanity ever.
And, as chebonne pointed out, it explains why Gerard was so cranky about Mikey dating Pete during the Summer of Like!
I mean, at the time, Gerard had just thought he was sleazy! But now with his newly discovered Christ Powers, he realizes that Pete is not only sleazy, he is also the son of Satan!
He goes to Mikey and says, "I so told you."
Mikey shrugs. "Dude, Pete told me he was the Antichrist after like, a day."
Gerard: "!!!"
Mikey shrugs again: "Forked tongue."
Gerard: "!!!"
Mikey wanders off to lose to Bob at guitar hero, again.
And the next time Gerard sees Pete, he is all bristling and bitchy and shit. And Pete is sort of confused, but not really - I mean, Pete has known he was the Antichrist for ages, so he totally picked up on the fact that Gerard was Jesus. He's a little hurt, though. Just because they had to do apocalyptic battle for the souls of human kind did not mean that Gerard had to be so cruel to him! He liked that hoodie, it didn't make him look like an eggplant!
Patrick finally has to step in and be like, "Look, Gerard. Remember turn the other cheek?"
And Gerard, who had really fucking hated sunday school, except for when the Bible and/or catholic theology got really gory, said, "Oh yeah. Wait, what, Patrick? Are you a demon too?"
"Naw," Patrick says, tugging the hat farther down his eyes. "Just a Satanist. Please don't bless me."
