main characters first!
Jack:
Draws all over his clothes. Put a pen in his hands and he’s immediately doodling on all over his jeans. Ff there’s a design he likes and doesn’t want it to wash away, he’ll ask Davey to embroider it.
Also draws on other people’s clothes (with permission. unless you're Crutchie and then he's just gonna draw on you).
Leather jackets and cowboy boots.
Never says I love you but always shouts after people to be careful.
Never drinks water and always complains about having a headache, but claims drinking water means he wastes time going to the bathroom when he could be painting.
Can't touch his toes. This is random but I feel it so strongly.
Davey:
CANNOT sit still (or normally). is always shifting, sitting backwards in chairs, pulling his knees to his chest. Claims it helps him think better.
Majored in the humanities in college with an incredibly niche concentration/focus that he will always explain in detail, even if the person who asked about it doesn't care.
Designs his own clothes (and decorates Jack's). He wants to look stylish but is picky about the fabric and fit, so he makes his own stuff and it's rly cool and unique.
Goes to parties to watch people and silently judge them. Stands in the corner with a glass of wine.
Everybody loves him. He is so popular but has no idea.
Katherine:
Rock climbs. Jacked back and freakishly bendy.
Runs the school paper and is everyone's campus crush. She doesn't know this and also could not care less what anyone thinks about her anyways.
Has this one bright red jacket she wears from fall through spring, and is therefore never dressed warmly enough for winter. Her cheeks are always so pink but she claims she's never cold.
Stands with David at parties and takes notes for inspiration.
(I read this one in the fic Nothing but Old Doubts Now by CoraRemarks on AO3) but she has two dads; Plumber and Pulitzer. This is fact.
Sarah:
Plays soccer (midfield, though she did goalie for a bit too) and is insanely good at it.
For two years only wore her hair in two french braids. Immediately after she cut it all off.
DJ'd at frat parties for a long time and would always mix in the weirdest, nichest music. Was threatened to be fired many times, but never was.
Is always injured but you'd never know it; she broke her wrist once and it took her two days before she decided it actually hurt.
Nobody knows NYC like Sarah. She knows every store, restaurant, etc. and has ranked opinions on everything as well.
The WORST at sympathetic words but the best at sympathetic actions.
Everybody is in love with her. She knows.
GUITARIST FINCH CORTEZ‼️‼️‼️
i finally finished my sketches for the 5sos au !!!
finch is the guitarist!!! he and specs have matching dog tags cuz they’re besties
sorry for the shit lighting i took the picture in my kitchen and i don’t have my sketchbook on me rn
thinking about spot teaching race how to lead a borough in preparation for jack moving out.
spot offering for just a little more time with race, and because he never had that help himself, because he was afraid once, and finally spot has something of value to share.
race accepting because with jack on the way out nothing is certain but this boy he met during the strike who’s a little sharp and a little mean but committed to the strike so fully, and race wants someone who won’t back down from him.
anyway i’m writing a fic for this pls ask me about it so i stay motivated to finish it
Whichever cameraman in the livesies proshot that decided to focus so much on Sky Flaherty is my favorite person ever thank you for your service
Also whichever choreographer put him in the front so much.
professor banned technology in the classroom because it was a distraction? jokes on you i'm staring at the wall and writing fanfic in my head
#jack kelly
they need to invent a running away & never coming back that doesn’t affect your life
Nothing will ever bring me as much sadness as the shortened album versions of Seize the Day & King of New York. How am I supposed to video-broadcast the entire show in my head if you cut the dance sequences?? How am I supposed to cope with my day without: "hey, where's Les?" Chaos noises
listening to casmir pulaski day on repeat so many times that my tummy hurts
i will never shut up abt this fic. pls read it if you haven’t.
If you see any inconsistencies or whatever in this, no you don’t! I didn’t rush the editing process, what are you talking about???
He groans aloud when he hears lockpicks in the door. Great, so he’s doing this again. Race hopes this one goes quick and they let him sleep afterwards.
He’s not expecting it to be Spot Conlon who opens the door when the lock clicks.
…
Or, the gang rallies to mount a rescue mission for Race! Read the chapter here!
dally and darry butt heads bc darry has always viewed grease as a curse from birth, while dally sees it as a prize to win. for him, grease is the best out of a bad situation. for darry, it's a reminder the bad situation never goes away. and it doesn't matter that dally thinks darry has earned his grease through and through. it doesn't matter that darry wants more not just for himself, but for the whole gang.
they love and survive in different ways and they never had the chance to teach the other that you do what you need to do to survive, no matter how messy, but you also have to let yourself believe you were destined for more.
