“That comfortable place where you write and read…”
//Alex doesn’t get too many days off from work I imagine, work being their DHOW science stuff along with episodes of Keeping Up With The Starks. But! When they do have enough free time, they like to spend it in the woods with their guitar.
//I imagine they write a lot of their own songs and definitely had a little garage band with Taylor and Calvin in high school, though Calvin dipped and Taylor still dabbles here and there with the keyboard. For the most part though, it’s just Alex and their guitar, plus some sheet music as they mess around. Their style is definitely midwestern emo with lots of inspo from TFB, and they like to play for friends but haven’t done so in a long time. Calvin wants to monetize their music, but they like keeping it to themselves. This is for fun after all <3

I have a working theory that you could sort groups of main characters from one fandom into each category, but for now it’s a hodgepodge of media I enjoy.
my absolute favorite dynamic in media is “two sisters who had a complex relationship during their childhood, and a sibling rivalry, if you will, but then actually end up being very close when they’re adults”
kinda of wanting buck at some point to have realization like alex in RWRB where we find out he did like make out with a boy, or do some not so straight things with boys on his adventures
Yeah, I'm not saying that Buddie/Dickl(e)y is so FirstPrince-coded (where the actors nationalities and the character's sexualities are flipped) that it actually hurts, ...
... but some one should really guard Madney's wedding cake with their fucking lives.
