.✦ ݁˖ BOWERS GANG X TOP OF THE CLASS, HEADCANON .✦ ݁˖
i couldn't think of anything so here's another bowers gang headcanon.. i'll probably make one centered about one of them
HENRY BOWERS
will call you things like "geek" since he finds that a little romantic, especially since you're top of the class. he’ll tease you a lot because of this.
he'll frequently ask you for help for homework since he really struggles with it, and knows you can do it.
he'll actually try in his classes because of you. not only because he loves you, but because you make it a little cool to be smart and be top of your classes
occasionally would ask you to some kind of library date where you guys study, but he'd immediately get off track and would do literally anything else but study, and will somehow get you to stop studying
if you guys share a class, during any quiz or test, he'd try to cheat off you, even if he sits on the other side of the class, he would still try to cheat.
PATRICK HOCKSTETTER
thinks that grades and homework is an arbitrary thing, but he's impressed with your grades in particular.
he is horrible at school, like, horrible. he's been held back multiple times, but honestly doesn't care for it whatsoever. you make it a little bit more interesting though.
when he needs help, he immediately goes to you, and will get upset if you're busy, trying to do other things, or anything else that isn't helping him, and would force you to focus on helping him.
if he has to take summer school again, he would try to make you go too, knowing that it's completely useless for you, he just wants you to be there to help him.
honestly finds it hot that you have a lot of knowledge, but is a little worried that you're smart enough to figure out other things about him.
BELCH HUGGINS
he himself cares about his grades, but when it comes to you, he doesn't really care if you're smart or dumb, he just likes you for you.
is really attracted to you knowing you're top of the class, he finds it really cute that you care to be so good.
he would boast to everyone that you're top of your classes, he would tell every single person, and would say things like "that's my girl" when he sees you get 100% on your homework/quizzes for the 50th time.
if you got handed some kind of paper for valedictorian or anything like that, he'd ask to have it and keep it somewhere in your car for him to keep.
loves seeing you succeed, and whenever you do (which is probably all of the time), he’d drive you around Derry in his car, and treat you.
VICTOR CRISS
is pretty smart himself, not as much as you, but he still is smart (or maybe just emotionally smart)
supports you, and think’s it’s hella cool you’re top of the class, and is honestly a little intimidated by it
you both will simultaneously help each other with studying and homework, and would even focus on helping you, rather than hanging out with the others
loves to have you over with the sole purpose to just study, and would hangout with you just to study and do homework
would always bring up your grades and how you’re top of your classes if the two of you get in trouble for anything, but if it didn’t work, he would always put the blame on him, and apologizes for using your grades to get the both of you out of trouble.
i know this one isn't that good since it’s rushed, and it's lwk a little filler, but next post it'll be centered on just one character (bowers or losers), so lemme know who you wanna see!
