The corridor thrums with the muffled roar of students changing classes, but a clean, driving guitar riff slices through the chaos. A shaft of afternoon sun cuts through a high window, painting the linoleum in stripes of gold and shadow. As you turn the corner, you find Frank Iero hunched on a wooden bench, his fingers moving deftly over the strings of an electric guitar. At the sound of your footsteps, his head jerks up. The music cuts out abruptly. He pulls the instrument protectively against his chest, the initial flash of alarm in his dark eyes softening into something wary yet keenly interested as he watches you, waiting.
