(****DISCLAIMER: THIS IS AN RP BLOG FOR A FICTIONAL CHARACTER FROM THE MTV SERIES ‘ZACH STONE IS GONNA BE FAMOUS’.)

"I'm pretty sure a vampire lives in that house across the street... never seen the guy step into the sun before. Think if I expose him, I could make it big?" Zach is mostly joking but a big part of him is incredibly curious now.

[gonnabefamous]

May make another promo banner. I also want to make some animated icons of Zach in my own style to better suit animated muses during interactions.

[gonnabefamous]

Hey, I'm back! Went through a rough patch in life for a minute there! Also updated my rules and added a disclaimer as it seemed other users were getting confused, though I will state this again: THIS IS A BLOG FOR A **FICTIONAL CHARACTER** FROM AN MTV SERIES.

Yes, I use an IRL faceclaim as that is who portrays his character in the show but this blog is not affiliated with Bo Burnham in anyway outside of that. This blog is not a reflection of his life or him as a person, it is all completely fictional scenarios and stories. Please DO NOT accuse me of playing an irl person because that shit is weird and something I would never do.

[gonnabefamous]

Sorry for being silent! I’ve been going through something extremely personal at the moment and haven’t had the motivation to write for my boy Zach. 8( For this reason, this blog is gonna be on a temporary hiatus. I have everyone’s responses drafted and plan on getting to them eventually; I apologize for the inconvenience! I do have a ton of fun playing Zach but I gotta get over this hump in life first to go back to enjoying writing rather than stressing about getting replies out. Don’t forget about me!

“Catch me an’ the bois headin’ out to find Mothman later.”

Slides over like the nosey creature he is.

“—you know where Mothman lives!?” He wants to be one of the bois.

“You have kids??? You don’t look old.” (Pls excuse Zach he has (1) brain cell)

"------- I'm not old. I'm in my 30s."

[gonnabefamous]

Zach was only 18 so anyone above the age of 25 to him was technically old. His mom was in her fourties which made them practically the same age in his head.

"...Yikes, your 30's?" The words tumble out of his mouth before he can even think. He clears his throat quickly after, "I mean, ahh... ahah, I'm sure you're doing something meaningful with your life atleast. When I'm 30, I'm totally gonna be a famous--!!!....Uhh, a famous something. I haven't decided yet."

am i dramatic yes is it justified also yes

which type of protagonist are you? 

universe's accident ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

 you don't think you're special, but you really, really are. and yeah okay, maybe you weren't supposed to be here, but damn, we're glad you are. whatever prank the universe pulled, it was backfired beautifully. you're the type of protagonist whose flaws become their greatest assets. your boughts of bad luck eventually come back around as bonuses to you and what you protect as miraculous coincidences of earned convenience. always remember--there are no accidents.

🥰 Have you ever been to a pride parade?

🥰;; Have you ever been to a pride parade?

Zach hesitates at first.

"...Will you judge me if I say no? I mean, I've always wanted to go to one--it's totally my thing." He rolls his shoulders, giving it a moment of thought. Why hadn't he gone before? He had certainly thought about it. Perhaps it was the fear of large social situations and judgement; he wasn't sure how accepting they would truly be.

"I just... don't wanna feel like a poser for being only half-gay. People on the internet are always talkin' smack about bisexuals."

There's a sudden alertness in Zach's eyes when he looks back up and he's curious. "Why, is there one going on? R-Right now? What are we waiting for!? I swear to god, they better have bi flags I can wear like a cape!"

"Shit no I wanted to go but I was unable to because I had other plans for the day and I was going to kill someone that day. The things you miss when you want to go to them but you can't."

Solid reasoning, he supposed. He was growing desensitized rather quickly towards Nate’s violent comments and habits, it seemed.

“Neither have I! And they look awesome. Everything’s rainbow and alot of people are just straight up walking around half naked. There’s actually one going on later today in the next state over if you wanna try to catch that one... c’mon, I’m ready to party!” Zach’s loud outfit mirrored his attitude.

🌈 How do you identify?

@predatorymaniac

PRIDE MONTH ASKS

🌈;; How do you identify?

Like alot of people still figuring themselves out in school, Zach was often the subject of bullying especially when it came to his sexuality. He wasn't macho or some kind of guy-bro--his interests were more commonly feminine and the friends he tended to attract (when any) were female and those relationships had been nothing but platonic which he was totally okay with.

As for his sexuality, he had always identified as straight despite having some inner turmoil about his identity; it was just easier that way but as he's gotten older and graduated out of that environment, he's been more open to listening to himself. His parents were accepting no matter what and it wasn't like being gay was a bad thing so he tried not to take it as a negative thing when the word was used as an insult.

Back to the question at hand, Zach has to think for a moment, mostly because he's not sure whether or not he wants to share this information. In his mind, men and women could both be pretty--he would be lying if he said he had never had a crush on a guy before; guys just tended to intimidate him more than women if that made sense. Romantically, anyway. Any romantic involvement made Zach nervous, honestly but guys could be off putting and tended not to care when they hurt his feelings!

"I think I'm bisexual." He says after a long moment of staring at the floor in thought. Then, he looks at Nate. "I mean, men can be just as pretty as women can, y'know? I've seen it first hand."

Though she didn’t say it out loud, Mallory had to admit that she could kind of understand Zach’s friend. After all, he had big dreams and there was always a chance that they wouldn’t come true. How many people tried to become famous, and how few of them ended up making it? There were probably some depressing statistics on that. She doubted his friends hadn’t told him that already and yet he still seemed determined. It was honestly kind of heartwarming.

When Zach asserted that his friend Amy would have totally ratted him out to his parents, Mallory narrowed her eyes in suspicion. He really did start the fire, didn’t he? She was almost sure of it now. But still she didn’t call him out on it. Nothing bad really happened, everyone made it out alright and…well, she had no concrete proof to be accusing him with. Mal ordered the same thing as Zach, except with a doughnut on the side since she hadn’t eaten since breakfast. It wasn’t the most nutritious thing to order and she’d probably feel bad about it later, but she was too tempted by all the glazed goodness that was sitting beneath the glass displays of the café.

As soon as her doughnut arrived, Mal’s eyes lit up and she quickly started eating, all the while listening to Zach’s idea. He was talking about editing now. She paused, taking a moment to swallow her latest bite before she interjected: “But…don’t you need footage first?” She had no idea about the camera’s that usually followed him around, or the fact that they took off running after his fire-stunt went awry. “I guess if you have a camera and a green screen, it could work…” She tried to be encouraging, but she wasn’t sure how much Zach really knew about editing. She certainly had very little knowledge about it, it wasn’t like she could give him tips in that area.

“And don’t you need somebody to film, also? If we both need to be in frame at the same time, who will be behind the camera?” All sorts of questions were popping up in her head now. Honestly, it was kind of fun thinking about this project, even if it wasn’t her idea.

Zach picks up his frappe when it arrives and sips on it, a garbled scoff leaving him at her question.

“What, do I look like a guy that didn’t come prepared? Of course I have a camera and green screen.” He pauses to take another sip, holding up a finger as if to indicate that he needed a second. His face crinkles into a complicated expression and he exhales through his nose, fighting off a self induced brain freeze. A moment later, he’s once again ready to speak as if it hadn’t just interrupted their conversation.

“Way ahead of you-- I actually have my own camera crew.” He tells her, an excited laugh leaving him after. He would leave out the part about blowing his life college savings on said camera crew in order to obtain his uncertain fame. “They, uh... were on break when that whole thing happened.” He quickly makes up an excuse as to why they weren’t present at the theatre, going back to sipping on his frappe moments later whilst leaning back in his seat.

It doesn’t cross his mind just yet that she would be able to witness the start of the prior chaotic event through the footage they captured before editing and Zach was no professional editor. He just assumed one of his camera guys would know what the heck he was doing. “Mmm, this is so addicting. Next time I’m asking them to sprinkle chocolate chips on it.” Half way done with his frappe by this time, Zach stands quickly, his mind onto more important matters, i.e becoming famous.

“I only live a few blocks from here, come on! While I still feel inspired!” The tall young man quickly darts out of the coffee shop, beverage in hand as he makes his way back to his parents house. He slows down about half way, pausing to breathe. “Shit... I gotta... go slow. Otherwise this frap is gonna come back up…” a hand rubs at his chest as he attempts to contain his acid reflux before pressing on.

At Zach’s house, the camera crew had seemingly made themselves at home in his living room. His parents were out which was great because he didn’t want to hear any harassment about bringing a new friend over. Parents were so annoying sometimes.

“Hey, guys! This is Mallory, she’s a new friend and coworker.” Zach introduces her to the crew, glancing over at her with an excited smile. “She rescued me from the fire that you jerks left me to die in.”

“Well it wouldn’t have happened if you didn’t—“ The cameraman’s words are cut short when Zach interrupts.

“AH—we’re not… here to point fingers.” He laughs nervously, giving the man a look afterwards. “A-Anyway… I wanna show her the footage we have so far. We gotta edit it, you guys. Obviously. Who here knows anything about editing?” He asks, a finger lingering in the air, moving from pointing at one person in the crew to another. No one seemed enthusiastic about raising their hands nor does anyone end up raising them. “Goddamnit, you guys… I gotta do everything myself.” Not true.

Here I go drawing punk Zach again

[insidefantasy]

"fantasy and reality don't agree when they're face to face." red lips accentuating the frown worn on sun-kissed skin. maybe that was olivia's problem, she always expected more, always wanted more and life just--couldn't provide her what she desired. fantasy was always better than real life. nothing had yet happened to prove to her otherwise.

[gonnabefamous]

“Reality sucks," Zach was in much of the same boat, finding himself wanting to follow his newfound dream of becoming famous so he could escape his mundane life and the friends who were leaving him behind for college. Sure, it was a subconscious cover for what he truly wanted--not to be expected to know exactly what he wanted straight out of highschool and not to be left behind. He wanted to do something meaningful, for him, that would leave a mark on the world so there was no way he could be forgotten. It was when he tried to hard to be something he wasn't that reality and fantasy tended to collide.

"Well, in my fantasy I'm famous and living it up with all my cool popular friends. I know it's gonna happen one day, mark my words. A-And get all the autographs you can before I get too big."
