The Substance 2024, Dir. Coralie Fargeat

does anyone know the appropriate amount of headcanons to put in one post?

turned 24 last friday which is actually kinda crazy to think about. planning on working on other stuff i've previously started working on. i'm hoping to get something out soon but we'll see what happens

i wanna write and post something soon(ish) but idk what exactly to work on

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET FILMS + opening quotes .

jack delroy headcanons

i decided since jack delroy doesn't have much of a proper back story, i'd make one up for him! kinda... these are just a few headcanons i came up with for him.

this is my first time writing headcanons or pretty much anything fandom related so please bear with me. also constructive criticism is appreciated. (also please be nice to me lol)

jack loves doo-wop. one of his favorite songs is ‘i only have eyes for you’ by the flamingos

he has a fairly decent relationship with his parents but he’s probably slightly closer to his mom (though, he isn’t exactly a mama’s boy)

has two sisters; one younger, one older. they’re really close and consider each other best friends, always have

had a phase where he didn’t talk he was younger, wrote in notebooks instead

(had a phase where he) hated getting his hair cut by strangers so his mom and older sister learned to cut it for him

got sick a lot as a child, spent a lot of that time reading comics and drawing

was always the entertainer of the family, they knew he’d make something of himself one day

has always loved the nighttime, prefers it over the day. he was always fascinated by the moon and stars. bonded with his mom and his aunt over it. his love and interest over the moon and stars only increased as he grew older. likes to spend as much time as he can awake at night just to stare outside

his favorite subjects in school were english, science, and history. he and his dad bonded over english. his dad would give him different books of different genres to read. he ends up enjoying darker authors like edgar allan poe

gets closer to his dad as he gets older (as close as he is with mom, maybe even slightly more than that)

here's a short list of headcanons i came up with for eddie and his weird girlfriend. i felt like the weird girls were underrepresented so i decided to write something for us lol

also i didn't specify a time for this. i was thinking the eighties when i wrote this bc i'm into that decade but you can read this with whatever time you're more comfortable with

so, eddie’s got this girlfriend. you. a freak like him and his friends; but not so much in the same way. while they nerd out on dungeons & dragons and lord of the rings (at least he does), you nerd out on horror movies and death. 

you’re so interested in it all. the movies are a comfort for you. a home you didn’t have. a belonging. with various stories and characters and the people behind them all. you can feel the love there. 

and death is just beautiful to you. doesn’t scare you much like it does other people. you find cemeteries calming, so you hang out there a lot. 

you aren’t very squeamish either, you’re alright with blood. fascinated by it, too. so most people find you weird. but not eddie’s friends. and DEFINITELY not eddie. he’s into horror too, but he’s fascinated with your fascination with the macabre.

you’ve been called goth many times before but you’re not sure if you are, you’re not really good with labels. you’re just… you. and you just happen to love black. 

and eddie adores it all. encourages it. he’ll plan picnics in cemeteries for you. he’ll buy you trinkets from antique or oddity shops as often as he can when he has the money. 

so you’ve got various animal skulls and vintage jewelry (and who knows what else) all over your house. 

if he doesn’t have the money, he’ll make you something himself. cards in the shape of bats or coffins or teeth or anything else like that.

he loves coming to your house and seeing all the flowers (especially red roses) wilted or slowly wilting away and placed all over the place.

he loves that you kept at least one flower from your first date in a scrapbook and he loves it even more that the rest of them rest on your nightstand.

thank you @storiesbyrhi for helping me out with this a little. and thank you to anyone and everyone who may read this and even like this! i'm pretty new to writing in this way. usually i write poems (i say very loosely) about my life and the way i'm feeling, etc. so please, bear with me lol
