You got any headcanons for Phil and Howard? Anchorstar or otherwise?
A small one of mine is that Howard's a Stephen Sondheim fan. (The writer of musicals like Into the Woods, Company, and Sweeney Todd.) He could never afford to watch a show in person though, so he'd just loiter outside the theaters to try and listen to the music.
Though maybe post-true ending he can watch all of them any time now.
(Hey. Howard could feasibly have seen Shrek in his mind.)
you did not specify for what version so WEREWOLF ANCHORSTA
nah just kidding its taken me way too long to get to such a simple ask because all i've been doing is writing down ideas so i can make everything perfect instead of having... fun. so have some assorted ones because we ball and we swing and we slay and we're queer
phillip was the kind of child who would see any animal in captivity and insisted it needed to be saved. from what? the owner? the plate? the society? he couldn't tell you. he just hates seeing things locked up. he wasn't wrong but it got him and howard (who rather willingly followed) into hot water a lot. it fizzled out when he entered adulthood yet never died...
angelique has always been in a world where she feels she has to prove herself. especially with all the pressure her occupation comes with and ESPECIALLY after being blamed for her idol's death. having people like howard and phillip respect her work with no strings attached or demeaning behavior is an odd feeling she doesn't mind getting used to
howard was very quiet for the first 2-3 years of his life because he didnt understand how people made sentences rhyme all the time and soaked up every word said to him like a sponge. once he started he never stopped and his mother was overjoyed
howard is a Road Dahl fan because I grew up reading Road Dahl and it was the best evolution from the books of Dr. Seuss. I feel as though he aquired a lot of good sass and morals from what he read and it dictated what he wanted to see when he began to read more. all literature was a lit match in a black tunnel
phillip's favourite books were the tale of peter rabbit, the cottage at bantry bay, and the black horse. he's a lot more into
howard visited his home often and they would read lots of short folktales, thickly woven catholic stories, and fictional action jargon. howard is an over-the-shoulder reader and phillip never minded it
angelique caught a fish with her bare hands when she was a child wading in a stream. she was never able to do it again but shes still proud of it regardless
she's also catholic though her faith is more rooted in instinct since she'd been practicing it her whole life. when she feels lost or desolate she will pray. she prayed a lot on that island.
her favourite books are the chronicles of narnia, hard-covered non-fiction of sea creatures, and a bunch of teenager-level books at an age way younger (their eyes were watching god for one)
i am of the popular opinion that howard and phillip adore the beatles. i am also of the unconventional opinion that howard is a secret fan of the rolling stones and the message they stand for. he thinks he's subtle but phillip bought him a vinyl as a birthday gift once
howard takes giant bites of food that he chews slowly (turtle). phillip takes small bites that he chews quickly (hare). angelique looks at both of them oddly yet most of the food she enjoys are halfway liquids she can sip on (spider). weirdos. the lot of em.
to decompress from a hard day they all cook a meal together and choose an activity to do. sometimes they'll host a three-person book club and tear apart some trash fiction. sometimes they'll play board games and watch howard lose his cool at phillip whilst angelique and phillip try not to lose their shit laughing
