FUCKS SAKE I never write Modern Au’s but I’m on me fucking holidays; Hansry backpacker au in south east Asia.
Hans and Henry on a group tour of the same place, Henry’s been saving for it for ages with a bunch of gigs, he maybe is still a blacksmith or something and he and his (step-)dad run the forge at like a living history museum or something.
Hans tossed trust fund money at a last minute distraction to keep delaying adulthood. And for fun, Hans is still in some way, technically, ‘Sir Hans’, and when Henry finds this out (and also the kind of school he went to) he calls him ‘Sir Hans’ to piss him off.
Some kinda initial hiccup involving maybe, Hans and Henry being switched out of their 18-30 group tour and moved with a bunch of oldies (The Devil’s Pack, probably.) and so get kind of thrust together as natural travelling companions/roommates but they hate each other.
Maybe there’s like, idk a natural disaster that happens when they land (BASED ON NO RECENT PERSONAL EXPERIENCES) and the travel rep gets them the last hotel room available and it’s an ah oh no only one bed scenario, bc why not take advantage of the trope?
And they’re having kinda different trips; Hans is paying for all the additional extra shit, like he pays 100 baht to take a picture with an iguana in a bar, but Henry’s the one that tells him the man will expect money when he takes a photo because he’s the one pulling him out of trouble and telling him to mark smart choices. And he pays because like, why not, that’s like barely anything in ‘real money,’ live a little Henry!
And at some point they get a bit too stoned together and watch homoerotic fire dancing and have like a. Huh. Moment, and make out in a club on the beach.
Anyway for the rest of their travel group;
Godwin is some old hippie perma-traveller spiritualist who’s been on a semi Buddhist trip of south east Asia for a few years. He’s got a lot of Asian style tattoos and you know he’s rocking the elephant pants too. Also probably taking advantage of the legal weed very heavily. Is definitely still a priest, but more generally ‘spiritual’ than particularly pious.
Zizka, Hynek, Kubyenka, Janosh and Adder are all there on holiday together.
Kubyenka and Hynek are on an absolute weeks-long bender and just indulging in every vice that’s offered, drugs, alcohol, sex, adrenaline, everything. (And Hynek is maybe luring Henry to the dark side a little/peer pressuring slightly sheltered village lad travelling this far his first time into trying hard drugs and getting into danger.)
And the others are there - Adder and Janosh and Zizka have all gone travelling together, they’re something like old army buddies/still actively involved in some shady military shit. Zizka’s like team captain making sure the pack don’t get into too much trouble, but seems to be okay letting them ‘let off steam’ however they like. (He also seems to be surreptitiously recruiting Henry to their shady military shit when he starts recognising his potential from how he reacts to Devil pulling him into shit.)
Katherine seems kind of above it all, and is just trying to relax and sunbathe and shit and it’s not super clear if she’s part of the other group who already know each other or she came by herself? But she keeps disappearing and no one really knows what she gets up to.
Rosa’s maybe there too - she’s like 18 and on her gap year before starting at a very prestigious university to study literature. She’s having a hot girl backpacking trip. She can’t stand Hans bc he’s just like all the other twats she went to school with, but Henry seems like a good shot for a tour fling/entertainment, but annoyingly he’s obsessed with Hans, and having such bad taste has to count for a mark against him. Katherine takes her under her wing and makes her even more terrifying. They start coordinating outfits.
just because your child is smiling at their phone doesn't mean they have a boyfriend / girlfriend. maybe they're just looking at Luke Dale Audition Tapes (2015 - 2018)
