I found Hatchetfield’s real life location!
I remember someone telling me that Nick Lang said in an interview that he imagined Hatchetfield as being an island in one of the Great Lakes, which would make sense, since Team StarKid started at the university of Michigan. I was looking at Google Maps today to see if I could figure out which lake it was. I saw that Lake Huron had several islands, including one with a yacht club, but nothing significant. Then, I decided to try and find Clivesdale, which I picture as being on a peninsula. It turns out that there is a peninsula which matches my mental image, and on this peninsula is a tiny town called Bad Axe.
Bad Axe was founded in the mid 1800s by George Willis Pack who, presumably like the Men with Hatchets, worked in the logging industry. He found the area while exploring Huron county wilderness, and named the town after a damaged hatchet he found there. And Bad Axe high school’s mascot is “The Hatchets”!
Bad Axe has a few other similarities to Hatchetfield, including an auto repair shop, a place called Pete’s Bar which could be the inspiration for Pizza Pete’s, and, most notably, a coffee shop called Emma’s Coffee House! this can’t be a coincidence.
Several notable people have lived in Bad Axe, including film editor Bob Murawski, who worked on “The Gift”, a horror movie about a woman with psychic powers, similar to how The Gift works in Hatchetfield; and William Potts, the inventor who first created traffic lights with yellow lights, the first of which was placed in Detroit, at the intersection of Michigan Avenue and Woodward avenue, which must have been the inspiration for Bill and Alice’s last name!
Clearly, Hatchetfield has more basis in reality than we initially thought. And whatever Nick lang is planning, it’s very complex, but this could be the key to solving more of Hatchetfield’s mysteries!

The day started off as any normal day for Theodore Spankoffski. He dropped off his brother, Peter Spankoffski at Hatchetfield Middle School, he’s in the 7th grade. Then, Ted took himself to work, 10 minutes late as always. Melissa would try to tell him he can’t keep doing this, and Ted would always walk past her.
Now, he’s sitting at his desk, trying to get himself to write the stupid weekly reports. His finger clicked the mousepad over and over as some sort of stim, his eyes glued to the screen, and his glasses slipping down on the edge of his nose.
Then an unmistakable conversation echoed down the hallway.
“Wanna come to Beanies with me?” Paul’s voice spoke.
Bill shook his head. “Can’t. Writing my report, Davidson will beat the crap outta me if it isn’t finished by Friday, and I’m a diligent worker. I’d like an iced caramel frappe though!”
“Fair enough.” He replied.
Ted heard footsteps moving toward the exit which was in his direction, and he seized the moment. Paul never asked him to go to beanies, or get coffee, or ask him what he wanted. He rose from his chair and slid into the hall just as Paul arrived there.
Ted crossed in front of him, “Hey, you going to Beanies?”
“Yeah.” Paul stared at him.
“You didn’t invite me.”
“Sorry, Ted. Did you wanna come?”
“Yeah. I did.”
Paul let out a small sigh, though Ted could hear it. “Alright.”
The two left the office, Paul put in his lunch hours, Ted did not. They were walking to Beanies this morning. Ted grabbed his phone and put his headphones in, just one of them. He was listening to The Beatles for a shocker. It was a normal song, too. Blackbird. The remastered version of course.
“What are you listening to?” Paul tried to start up some conversation.
Ted snapped back, “None of your fucking business.”
Paul stared at him. “Was just trying to talk.”
Ted felt a small sense of guilt after immediately being rude to him. The dude’s not even drunk. “I’m listening to The Beatles.”
“The Beatles?” Paul asked.
“Yeah. Blackbird.”
They walked in silence for a small moment, Ted felt like Paul was judging him even though the Beatles are AWESOME.
Paul looked back up at Ted, “Cool.” He began, “Who’s your favorite?”
Ted looked back at him, “That’s a hard one, Matthews. If I’m judging by how hot they were— none of em! They all were goddamn ugly. But… Ringo is pretty sick.”
“Good choice. I like Paul and George.”
“Not John?”
“No. Didn’t John like…. beat his wife?”
“I don’t fucking know. I’m a 31 year old in 2015.” Ted shrugged.
They both chuckled together and continued their walk. Ted found Paul so endearing, for a strange reason. The way his short brown hair just rested on his head, his god awful blue eyes that were so damn intimidating though Paul is literally the nicest person you’ll ever meet (Maybe not nicest. But kind), and how he wore a suit and tie to work. It’s just an office job! All Ted wore was a dress shirt and some dress pants, occasionally a tie.
When they arrived at Beanies, Ted opened the door for Paul instinctively. “Whoops, thought you were the girl.” Ted told him.
Paul gave him an unamused laugh and they stood in line together. It was a short line, nothing like Starbucks, where Ted would honestly rather get his tea from. When it reached their turn, he saw a short girl, he assumed she was like 5’0ft tall, honestly. Maybe could even pass as 5’2. She had her brown hair up in a bun, and obviously a waitress outfit on, no name tag, oddly.
“What can I get for you two today?” She asked.
“I’ll get a black coffee,” Paul started, “He’ll get a….”
“Chai iced tea. ICED. Don’t give it to me hot.”
The woman stared at Ted before giving him a slow nod. “Which one of you are paying today? Or is it split?” She asked Paul, leaning on the counter.
Paul looked at her leaning, maybe even blushing. Oh fuck. Was he blushing? “It’s spli—“
Ted slammed down 12$ on the counter. “Does that cover both of us? 12 bucks.”
The woman jumped as she looked at him, and then did a light laugh. A laugh that made Paul absolutely melt. “Yes. God. Yeah, that covers it. It costs $10.68, do you want change?”
“Hell yeah, duh.”
The woman nodded and went to count his change.
“You gotta be nicer to people in customer service.” Paul told him.
“I’m being normal. Fuck off.” Ted snapped, “I’m not gonna suck up cause she’s making me some tea.”
Paul scoffed at him, and the woman handed Ted his $1.32 dollars, and got started on their drinks. After around 2 minutes for the two of them, it was done.
They walked back to the office together, Ted felt a bit more pissed off, but he shoved it down.
“Well, remind me not to go here with you again.” Ted said.
Paul looked over. “Why say that?”
“I wouldn’t wanna… show ya up, yeah?”
“What do you mean?”
“Come on, Paul. I know why you walk the extra block instead of just going to Starbucks.”
“I don’t wanna give my money to some corporate chain.”
Ted gave him a bullshit look.. “Uh huh. Uh huh. You sure it is didn’t have anything to do with that cute little barista over there?”
“That’s not the reason.” Paul defended himself.
“Uh huh. Uh huh.”
Ted never went to Beanies with Paul again, not willing to face his deep rooted jealousy for the woman. He did go alone when she was working to piss her off, especially in 2018 when he would tip on purpose to make her sing. She was the crabby one, maybe not for the reason he said later on. But he wanted Paul, and he couldn’t have that.

Love my gay sons that are older than me <33333333
"i trace it all back, 3:30 AM."

i feel like Steve was first written by a man but then a woman slowly took over and ended up writing the end of his story, while Jonathan was written by a woman from the beginning but was fucked over here and there in his story by a man
the same woman ended writing about the both of them tho and she had intended for them to end up together but the man at the very last took over and said no, let's just tease but never give them that ending they deserve
It's my 1 year anniversary on Tumblr somehow
"eddie isn't queer/gay," you say. "he is straight in canon, so him being gay is just a head canon. it's ok for others to think of him as straight because that's what he is."
let's ignore for a second the fact that eddie has never ever ever ever not even once, said in canon that he is a heterosexual very straight guy. seriously!!! he has never once said it!!! if i am "assuming" he's gay then you are also "assuming" he is straight even though he has never once said it!!
how do you think we got bi buck as canon? like i am serious right now, answer the question. how do you think we go bi buck canon? evan buckley was never conceived to be a bisexual man at the beginning of 911. the reason we have evan buckley as a canonically bisexual character today is because us, queer fans of 911, interpreted him and headcanoned him as bisexual. i would go even further and say that it was us, BUDDIE FANS, who interpreted him and headcanoned him as bi. even before the writers were explicitly writing him as bisexual. we read his actions and his story and his identity and said: "this is a bi character!" and the writers looked back and realized that it made sense! and so they started writing him explicitly and canonically as bi.
was it wrong of us to headcanon a character as bisexual then? like for all intents and purposes we were reading a "straight" character as bi. were we doing something wrong? how come you are not complaining/chastising us/shaming us for how we took evan buckley, an otherwise straight character, and saw him as bi? is it because it now serves a purpose to you that he is bi?
also, taking characters that aren't confirmed queer and reading them as queer is what the queer community, and specifically the queer fandom community, has been doing for DECADES. look up the history of queer coding, i am begging you. it has been through the means of queer coding and the perseverance of people that are engaged in it that actual queer representation in media has increased. and let me tell you right now, eddie diaz is, undoubtedly and undeniably, one of the most queer coded characters there is. whether you think this queer coding is conscious by the writers or not. eddie diaz is queer coded.
and i want everyone who says things like "eddie diaz is not a queer character. he is straight in canon. it's wrong to assume a character is queer without the character saying so" to know that this is exactly what straight and homophobic people say. you are using the SAME rhetoric that has been used to shame queer fans for decades for seeing themselves and their experiences in fictional characters of all types. in fact, us, queer fans (and again BUDDIE FANS), were told so many times by straight fans that we were wrong for reading buck as bisexual. and where are we now? where did reading buck as bi take us? oh yeah, to having bi buck in canon.
so please just stop with the "eddie isn't queer in canon" comments. if you don't want to interpret eddie as queer then that is your prerogative. i will be judging why that is, for sure, but it is your right. but be honest about it. it has nothing to do with whether or not he is straight (which hasn't been said) or queer coded (which he so obviously is seeing as so many of us can very easily read him as queer). it's a personal preference and you're not engaging with canon better because of it.
Dont leave this in the tags @thatbuddie ❣️
