Mikey was still gangly, all arms and legs, but he wore it better these days. The awkwardness that had plagued him into adulthood was gone.
There were new wrinkles at the edges of Mikey's mouth and around his eyes. He hadn't shaved in a few days; his square jaw was stubble-y and there was the beginning of a terrible mustache above his mouth. His hair was buzzed close on the sides, spikey on top, a plain brown like Gerard's. Gerard hasn't seen Mikey's natural hair color since they were teenagers.
