It's Torbin' Time!

¨Came back wrong¨ but I actually came back better than ever, people are just stupid and refuse to believe such a fact

my design for college age Hidgens based on the lore drop in Workin Boys and some Nightmare Time stuff

You are not immune to frostbek propaganda

"Workin' Boys" is quite vocal about Grace and Ted mirroring each other somewhat (both believing the show to be about prostitution, Ted being dead and Grace being a murderer by the end) and while many have already pointed out that they're both "doomed by the narrative" (Ted always dies, Grace always ends up the villain) I don't think we've talked about the fact that the way they're doomed are exact opposites of each other.

Ted always dies because he makes a (sometimes) selfish decision. He runs away in TGWDLM, he tries to take back Jenny in "Time Bastard", he gets up to leave in "Workin' Boys".

Grace always lives because she is forced to act selflessly by giving up her innocence. She has to let Boy Jerry and Girl Jeri get murdered to save Steph and Pete, she has to give up her chastity to save the world from Max, she has to shoot Hidgens to protect anyone else in the theatre.

Ted is a bastard who barely cares about what his actions are like in the minds of others. He always dies because of his bad decisions.

Grace is utterly devoted to a higher power and so desperately wants to be "good". It's never her choice to become evil, it's up to fate.

I believe you owe me some Ruth and Richie headcanons?

I love those silly billys so much

Firstly, I do have a little fanfic series (it's like 4 oneshots) that's like post npmd where Ruth and Richie come back as ghost (self promo because I don't have many headcanons to say right now)

Ruth:

Her favourite musical is Be More Chill

Sometimes she has a meltdown in a bathroom then calls it 'playing Michael In The Bathroom' because it makes her feel better about it

She was posting bad star wars fanfics on ff dot net, bad self insert fics on wattpad, and really good star wars fanfics on ao3

Her best subject is history because she gets too into researching it (if something mythology based is a class, then that's her favourite because sex myths)

She's constantly cold

Ruth exclusively owns novelty socks

Adhd

Richie:

His favourite anime is Soul Eater

He Naruto runs places without realizing it

Let his autistic ass stim, okay?

He hides behind Ruth a lot, despite being so much taller than her

He is Ruth's beta reader for fanfics

His best subject is math because 'it's just formulae' (his second best is art except his teacher hates him because he keeps handing in fanart)

He's constantly overheating

which one of u was going to tell me that tea tastes different if u put it in hot water?

do you ship it?

Out of the depths of hell and back I bring you three lords in black

Ted’s fine in there btw don’t worry about it
