Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas also chickens chickens chickens chickens chickens!!!!! π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€π€
So I've had this idea/headcanon sitting around for a while about Rich; after the events of the story, his grandparents swoop in to take him away from his father after learning about the fire and all the other crap he'd been through. And after the school year finishes up, they fly him back out to their home in the countryside.
I dunno I just have a lot of feelings about Rich; I think he'd benefit from a nice quiet place where he can chill out and touch some grass.
And of course Jake comes to visit him
In these difficult times I would like to remind y'all that y'all are all cooler than a vintage cassette :) So much f'ing peace and love <3
Love love love love love love!!!!!
Tried that grayscale thing colored vers. under
Yaaaaaaaaaaas look after yourself y'all :)
shower. not a bath, a shower. use water as hot or cold as u like. u dont even need to wash. just get in under the water and let it run over you for a while. sit on the floor if you gotta.
moisturize everything. use whatever lotion u like. unscented? dollar store lotion? fancy ass 48 hour lotion that makes u smell like a field of wildflowers? use whatever you want, and use it all over.Β
put on clean, comfortable clothes.Β
put on ur favorite underwear. cute black lacy panties? those ridiculous boxers u bought last christmas with candy cane hearts on the butt? put em on.
drink cold water. use ice. if u want, add some mint or lemon for an extra boost.
clean something. doesnβt have to be anything big. organize one drawer of ur desk. wash five dirty dishes. do a load of laundry. scrub the bathroom sink.Β
blast music. listen to something upbeat and dancey and loud, something thatβs got lots of energy. sing to it, dance to it, even if you suck at both.
make food. donβt just grab a granola bar to munch. take the time and make food. even if itβs ramen. add something special to it, like a hard boiled egg or some veggies. prepare food, it tastes way better, and youβll feel like you accomplished something.Β
make something. write a short story or a poem, draw a picture, color a picture, fold origami, crochet or knit, sculpt something out of clay, anything artistic. even if you donβt think youβre good at it.
go outside. take a walk. sit in the grass. look at the clouds. smell flowers. put your hands in the dirt and feel the soil against your skin.
call someone. call a loved one, a friend, a family member, call a chat service if you have no one else to call. talk to a stranger on the street. have a conversation and listen to someoneβs voice. if you canβt, text or email or whatever, just have some social interaction with another person. even if you donβt say much, listen to them.
cuddle your pets if you have them/can cuddle them. take pictures of them. talk to them. tell them how u feel, about your favorite movie, a new game coming out.
why donβt we just. kill two birds with one stone

Do you happen to have any Jake headcanons, thoughts, art, or whatever to spare??? Trying to cause a surge in Jake content for myself because I love him!!
HELL YES
I LOVE MY BOY JAKE, HE DESERVES THE WHOLE WORLD!!!
Here aare some headcanons :D
He's half North American, half Australian.
A pansexual icon, tho he doesn't really care about labels.
He needs to use a wheelchair - he can still stand up and walk on good days, but the fire + his squip kind of fucked up his legs.
Christine, Rich and him customized his wheelchair with funky stickers that glow in the dark.
Still thinks his parents are good people and looks up to them (they are really shitty parents, even if he can't see it).
After Michael told his mom's about Jake living in a crappy motel, they offered him a room in their house.
Michael and Jake are brothers now, your honor. Like, he's a Mell now, they have adopted him, they are a family now, even if at first they were kind of awkward around the other.
He's clearly talented with music, though he doesn't really see it and doesn't do anything with it.
Plays the violin since he was twelve, though he abandoned it after a few years. He still likes to play it when he's bored.
He's in his highschool choir with Brooke. He's a really good singer.
His flirting skills are so lame, but somehow they work??? Like, with Christine - he can say the most pathetic things ever and still sound really charming? Tho I fear that's just canon.
Big fun of Y2k/2010's white girl music, like Kate Perry, Miley Cirus, Kesha, Avril Lavigne...
A sitcom enjoyer - he probably likes them a little too much, especially the ones that revolve around families (The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Modern Family, Full House...), mostly because his parents were never around that much, so he ended up attaching himself to the families he saw on TV.
When he was younger, he used to be love Adventure Time! It's kind of his comfort show now, because of how nostalgic it makes him feel.
Severely allergic to dogs, which is so fucking depressing because he wants to hug them SO BAD. He's such a dog person. His squip is obviously Air Buddy.
He's also lactose intolerant and Chloe likes to make fun of him for it.
He has watched High School Musical at least 20 times. (Had a crush on both Troy and Gabriella lmao)
He had a goldfish when he was six, called Finn. It died after two months because his dad accidently broke the fishbowl and didn't care enough to buy a new one so he just... flushed it? Yeah, that emotionally scarred Jake for life.
GIFTED KID BURNOUT GOES BRR
He's always trying new things out so he can have his mind occupied and just... stop thinking about everything wrong with his life.
He really cares about Chloe, and he genuinely likes her, the problem is they are so toxic as a couple and neither of them are in the right headspace for a relationship. They don't usually bring out the best of the other. Problem is they don't see it, so they keep running into eachother because they have some attachment issues they'd need to work on separately before engaging in such relationship. It's a closed cycle, I fear. I'd really like to talk more about them bc their relationship is so interesting.
Richjake. That's it that's the headcanon. I just think they're neat.
Goes iice-skating with Christine every winter.
I just KNOW he loves Sweater Weather.
I'd have to write a whole essay (or a fanfic) on why I think he engages in substance abuse, specially after his parents left.
Has a bit of religious trauma I JUST KNOW.
Brooke, Michael and him celebrate movie night at least twice a month.
He's dyslexic and enjoys reading but usually struggles to concentrate, so that's why he prefers audiobooks. He usually listens to them when he's going for a run or clinking his room. He also listens to them when he goes to sleep because he can't sleep with no noise.
Christine turned him into a theater kid. His favorite musical is Legally Blonde, and is the only peace of media that will make him cry.
I wished I could show some fanart, especially one I have where Jake and Rich are standing inside a closet and the thingy from Episode appears with the "So this is seven minutes in heaven?" and they give you the options of "MAKE OUT?!?!?!" and "Strangle him with a coat hanger". I love that fanart, but it's in the sketchbook I share with my bestie and he currently has ππ

This is rough, have any advice on not fucking killing myself?
I know there are a lot of people thinking about killing themselves right now. I felt the exact same way in 2016 when he first got elected.
This is a bad thing, but to anyone having these types of thoughts, please don't do anything that can't be undone. This is the last term he can be be inaugurated, after these 4 years, or hopefully less, he will be gone. It's difficult to stay positive right now, and that's okay. You don't have to stay positive, it's okay to feel these emotions as they are. But please do not commit suicide, because if you do, you won't be able to feel any emotions ever again.
Even though I felt hopeless at the time, I am so glad that I didn't kill myself in 2016.
For my own sake, I really need the people who are upset with this election to stay alive with me
