I headcanon that Gerard Keay doesn’t always wear his goth aesthetic. I mean, he does if he’s outside anywhere, but at 10PM during a quiet night in he’s not as worried about it as one might think.

This plays into a Doorkeay headcanon of mine that’s just the concept of Distortion Michael deciding to pay Gerry a visit at 1AM and being getting genuinely shocked and unsettled by seeing him dressed down. Just:

Distortion Michael: “What are you, and what did you do with my book burner?”

Gerard who is wearing a bright purple hoodie, light blue pants, and a has a pink scrunchie in his hair: “I feel like you’re being very dramatic right now.”
