Stex Appreciation Month- Day 5/6: Electra and Ashley!!

(Doing both of them in the same day since im busy with family stuff and wont get around to it)

Electra:

(Wip of an Electra doll I’m making! Im also gonna make the components)

- Favourite Performer?: Jeffrey Daniel! Im a sucker for OLC Electra! I also like John Partridge and Mykal Rand!

- Favourite Song/Scenes?: As much as I love AC/DC, no comeback has my heart as my favourite Electra song! For my favourite scene its whenever they’re interacting with his components

- Favourite Costumes?: AUS/JAPAN TOUR OMGG, I also love original London

- Favourite Ships/Friendships?: For ship probably Electra x Components (not sure of the name) or more specifically Electra x Killerwatt. For friendships I’m not actually sure!

- Headcanons?

Any pronouns for every Electra but Wembley (Wembley uses they/them)

Had their components assigned to them by whatever company she works for

Crash didn’t leave them too badly harmed, Wrench was able to fix them up (and spent way more time fixing them than Greaseball and C.B/Red Caboose/Slick)

Would probably freak out if one of her Components got hurt, thinks its their fault it happened in the first place

Has a massive bed

Ashley:

(Ashley bracelet that I made)

- Favourite Performer?: Nikki Belsher in London! Im not very familiarised with many Ashley actors sadly.

- Favourite Song/Scenes?: For song is girls rolling stock! Like yes queen be gay with your wife Buffy while hyping up your bestie. For scene is during the races!

- Favourite Costumes?: Bochum! It’s the one I’m most familiar with and prefer!

- Favourite Ships/Friendships?: Smokingburgers! (Ashley x Buffy) for my favourite ship! My favourite friendship is her and all the coaches!

- Headcanons?:

Thinks vaping is for losers and weirdos

Wembley Dinahs mother, Buffy being Dinahs other mother (Named her after well, Dinah!)

Definitely tried to convince Dinah to break up with Greaseball more than once

Stex Appreciation Month- Day 4: Dinah!!

(My Dinah cosplay for this day! I fear shes still not fully finished 😰)

- Favourite Performer?: I really like Frances Ruffelle and Jane Krakowski Dinah! I also love Georgia Pemberton as well!

- Favourite Song/Scenes?: For song I love a whole lotta locomotion it just sounds so good to my ears I cannot explain it. For scene it would be when she’s introducing Pearl in the Wembley production!

- Favourite Costumes?: ohh my i wonder… (post 2018 and original London production) i just really like blue Dinah!

- Favourite Ships/Friendships? I love love love love kitchen repair and greasedinah as ships! For friendships its her and the other coaches!

- Headcanons?: Dinah is like my #1 favourite character (sharing that place with joule) so expect a lot of headcanons

I believe she’s still friends with the components (especially Joule, Wrench and Volta) after the races

Has reading glasses and freckles

Buffy and Ashley are Wembley Dinah’s mothers

Rusty is like her brother as she grew up in the same yard as him and they were freinds

OLC Dinah and Buffy taught Wembley Dinah how to cook, also how Girlball met Dinah

All the different versions of Dinah’s secretly know each other, like a secret network of dining cars called Dinah

Met Greaseball through racing as a child and being their racing partner a few times, saw her a few times when OLC Dinah was helping her at her cooking lessons as well

Sometimes tones down her accent but when she’s around people who she’s close with she doesn’t hold back

OLC Dinah and Greaseball are Girlballs parents

Actually dyes her hair a lot! Her favourite look is blonde with blue streaks

Stex Appreciation Month- Day 3: Greaseball!!

(No drawing for today because i forgot💔 and I’m terrible at drawing every version)

- Favourite Performer?: Al Knott! I also really like Rory McCollum’s and Robert Torti’s greaseball!

- Favourite Song/Scenes?: For both song and scene my favourite is rolling stock! I like the choreography so much and the song just sounds super good to me and gets stuck in my head a lot!

- Favourite Costumes?: Ohhh ohhh I loveee OLC Greaseballs costume especially his hair! It reminds me of wolverine as well. Also shout out to broadways costume too!

- Favourite Ships/Friendships?: Basic I know but greasedinah especially the WLW version. For friendships it would be Greaseball and the Champions (I’d say Nationals as well but Greaseball seems to be more friends with the Champions)

- Headcanons?: sorry for like very little of these on the first few i only really come up with headcanons for my favourites

Not sure if this is full canon or not but Girlball is a lesbiann

Spends hours in the bathroom getting their hair ready (BOTH versions Guyball would care so much about his appearance)

Guyball is Girlballs father, Dinah being her father

(Also random note but i legit do these right before i go to bed probably not the best time because i do not remember anything)

Stex Appreciation Month-Day 2: Pearl!!

(A quick Pearl sketch because all my good drawings of her are in my school books)

- Favourite Performer?: Sighhhh once again i am a huge Aus/Japan tour fan so obviously Nikki Belsher! I also really really love Reva Rice as Pearl on broadway!

- Favourite Song/Scenes?: My favourite Stex song of all time is next time you fall in love (mentioned this already but it deserves to be mentioned again), but if i had to choose one fully focussed on Pearl it would be OLC he whistled at me. Give Pearl her pop song back!! My favourite scene is all of engine of love!

- Favourite Costumes?: I loveee Aus/Japan tour costume but Bochums pink pearl wig!

- Favourite Ships/Friendships?: I love love love Prusty! My favourite friendship is Pearl and the coaches, my favourite version being Wembley!

- Headcanons?: Also not much here but enjoy them!

Her hair is actually dyed pink, original colour is blonde like post 2018 Bochum

Only child (she just gives off those vibes as a only child myself)

Originally first class but converted to a observation carriage

Stex Appreciation Month- Day 1: Rusty!!

(I swear ill try to do drawings for this i uh just kinda forgot it started today)

- Favourite Performer?: I’m a hugeee aus/japan tour fan so Bobby Collins is one of my favourites! I also really love how Jeevan Braich, Ray Shell and Kevin Kohler all play their Rustys as well!

- Favourite Song/Scenes?: My favourite song in all of stex is Next Time You Fall In Love but if i had to choose one mainly focused on Rusty it would be Call Me Rusty. My favourite scene is during the Starlight Sequence when the stage is filled with the stars and Rusty finding the starlight.

- Favourite Costumes?: Bochum!! Im also planning to cosplay this version!

- Favourite Ships/Friendships?: Prusty is one of my favourite ships! I just think they’re super cute! My favourite friendship is the Rusty and Coaches friendship! I always think of Dinah as like his sister figure.

- Headcanons?: Only have a few for him but here they go!

Momma and Memphis Belle are his biological parents

He so said “with the power of friendship!” Until he got bullied out of it

His rust is a genetic condition, treated as like a rash/eczema but it can become deadly if not treated right

Cries to Mitski in his room (this started off as a joke but I don’t think it’s a joke anymore)

The Rockies/Hiphoppers (depending on what version) are like his siblings (same goes for Wembley but Lumber, Porter and Slick), also considers Dinah as a sister since she grew up with him in the same yard and they were friends
