Names Johnny Vincent, but I got in on good authority y'already knew that. Here because the whole of Bullworth seems to be, n' whats Bullworth without its king?
I've got three loves in this world, my bike, my boys n' my girl. Anything n' anyone else ain't matter. And since we're speakin' of my lady, look Lola's way n' you'll regret it. Capiche?
Anyways, I gotta race against that Hopkins kid to win. Send me somethin', I s'pose.
Anyone got any connections for some sorta part-time gig, like— I dunno.. waiterin’. Whatever pays. My bikes hella busted and the cost for parts pricey so trust me, I ain’t picky.
God knows beggars ain’t get t’be choosers in this world.
Yo listen @newcoventryking The autoshop was banged up by someone and ya bikes Plus the teachers car got splattered up and painted, i need ya in a calm head so we can talk about how this can be Fixed, Don't swing the fist yet johnny.
tell ya boys to come over outside the Autoshop so we can talk.
If by talk ‘ya mean beat the truth outta you then me and the boys are headin’ over as we speak, Harringtwo. Actin’ like your just gonna get away with this sorta noise..
”Break up with Lola, she isn’t good for your mental health!” Yeah n’ my fists ain’t good for your physical health, yet you’re still givin’ me a good reason to use them.
Can't believe it's been 'bout 25 days since I touched a cig, didn't know I'd I actually make it this far so suck it to de people who had no faith!
I already know ima do to celebrate im gonna ride my bike and get me a hotdog though it won't feel the same without the smokes
Girl why’d you move 😂😂😂😂✌️😴😴
- Your #1 hater again. Wsg
Clear your calendar because I'm diggin' ya an early grave.
hello ! johnny ! you are cool ! my friend is a part of this news thingy, so I wanna try journalising 2 ! im interviewing members of the general poor population !!!
my question is: why are you poor and why havent your parents done anything about it :(
(hi broski.. this is an oc.. she’s kinda dumb.. @bluediorprincess )
(Johnny is so unimpressed by the question and it's phrasing that he doesn't satisfy it with even a one worded answer. It's safe to say his face is riddled with disappointment.)
You're a mechanic, so how comfortable would you be with the fundamental basics of a rotational gearbox? I'm trying to figure out how to fix the one in the observatory that runs the miniature solar system set but it's... in pretty bad shape.
@theearnestjones
Like a transmission? S'pose I could take a look at it,, I mean me n' you had that truce goin' during the election so I guess ya ain't all that bad. I'll bring my tools over to the observatory, you better not stand me up geek or I'll give your regret its own bruises.
I wouldn't dream of standing you up, especially if you're willing to actually help me with this. I can admit when a problem is beyond my own scope, and this definitely is. I'll unlock the gates and meet you outside, just uh... don't expect much, it's kind of a mess in there--
Exiting greaser territory with a metal tray of greasy and rusted tools clenched in his dominant palm, Johnny found himself travelling to a part of the school he wasn’t previously familiar with, being gawked at by confused Jocks as he strode past the bleachers. The observatory, usually secured by gates keeping the nerds safe in their own world, cracked open in expectation of his arrival.
Entering the building with a uncommon lack of belonging haunting him, Johnny called out.
“Smallfry! You ‘round? I ain’t come all this way for nothin’ ..c’mon, show yourself.”
Earnest had spent an entire hour staring up at the great mechanical orrery suspended beneath the observatory dome as though enough glaring might shame it into functioning. It hadn't. The paper mache planets hung motionless in the air, frozen halfway through their celestial dance and covered in cobwebs.
He sighed through his nose.
He'd already exhausted every avenue of expertise he actually possessed. He had calculated gear ratios, consulted the maintenance manual twice, and even attempted to determine the point of failure mathematically.
Unfortunately, mathematics had failed to account for the fact that someone, at some point in Bullworth's history, had apparently repaired the mechanism with what looked suspiciously like fence wire and blind optimism.
Earnest nearly jumped when he heard Johnny enter.
"U-Up here!"
He hurried to the balcony railing, peering over with obvious relief.
"Oh! Excellent, you actually came." He adjusted his glasses, trying very hard not to sound as desperate as he felt. "Please don't take offense to the state of... well... everything. Maintenance funding at this institution appears to have been allocated by orangutans."
He descended the spiral staircase quickly, stopping a respectful distance away from the greaser.
"I appreciate your assistance, Johnny. Genuinely."
The admission seemed to pain him only slightly.
"I'll be perfectly candid, I understand the astronomical significance of the mechanism, the mathematics governing its motion, and the historical engineering principles involved..."
He gestured helplessly toward the silent machinery overhead.
"...but as for actually repairing it? I possess approximately the same aptitude for mechanics as a goldfish. So, ah... if you wouldn't mind taking the lead, I'd prefer not to worsen the damage by pretending I know what I'm doing."
He offered an awkward, almost diplomatic smile.
"I'll hand you tools. Read diagrams. Fetch anything you require. I assure you I can be a remarkably efficient assistant when properly delegated."
He was being a little bit over-obsequious, and internally cringed at the way he sounded. Johnny was intimidating in person. He led the greaser up the staircase, towards the open panel that housed the orrery's rusted, poorly fixed, spider-filled gearbox. ((It's actually hard as hell to find a proper picture of a planetarium gear drive box, but it's something like this))
Venturing up the spiral staircase, a mere few steps behind the other leader, Johnny watched the way that Earnest flailed up the stairs with zero attempts to conceal his amusement. With how little he found himself mixing with the academy's other cliques, it wasn't often that he was reminded just how intimidating he was to the frailer folk at Bullworth.
"Sheesh, Jones. Place is'a proper pigsty.. no wonder you're so,,, I wouldn't be at peace workin' if the shop was-- well, like this. Don’t go expecting no miracles if the shits busted, I’m good with my hands but I ain’t know no magic.”
Despite the clear imbalance between the pairs brain and brawn, Johnny hummed along with a fixed nod at each statement Earnest made, giving the nerd a noticeable side-eye whenever a a series of words miles outside the realms of his vocabulary. Approaching the panel, Johnny almost found himself gagging at the sight of the neglected gears. Certainly not a pretty sight, especially not on a mechanics eyes. Placing his tool tray on the flooring beside him, Johnny was quick to ditch his leather — fingers gripping around the cotton of his jumper and pulling upwards after. It seemed he was preparing for a mess, or perhaps a workout, either way he was getting himself comfortable because next came the rolling of his shirts sleeves,
“I’d prefer you on my six, as long as ‘ya ain’t hover uselessly. Bit pointless if you gotta call me over everytime this —doohickey, so much as needs an oiling, you’re meant t’be smart so I’m sure you’ll pick it up quickly. Any diagrams or manuals ‘bout this contraption layin’ round?”
Earnest wrung his hands, fighting the urge to chew on his nails anxiously. The look on Johnny's face was... not very promising. He was almost glad Johnny ditched the jacket. He was significantly less intimidating in his shirtsleeves, significantly more... just some guy. "The place was 'like this' when we moved in, to be fair. Worse, actually, it was filled with graffiti and trash. We've been doing what we can up to this point... and I don't expect miracles, if you say it's busted I'll believe it's busted." He said, peering over his shoulder. Upon being prompted, he went to grab the manuals he had managed to save, a bit water damaged, a bit chewed on by little rodent teeth, a bit faded and yellow, but readable. They mostly covered how to properly re-synchronize and place the gears for different planets to keep it all moving correctly. He placed them a polite distance to Johnny's side so he could see them as he peered into the gearbox. "We managed to dig these up, but none of us feel confident enough taking this thing apart to see if all the pieces are still here or why it's jammed. Though the bits of wire tangled up in there certainly seem a culprit." He sighed, voice tinged with annoyance over the whole thing. "When you can-" He started, then re-started. "If you can fix it, we should be able to keep it running from there just fine.
Taking hold of one the manuals with his thumb and pointer finger, Johnny let it dangle in the air for a moment to highlight the absurdity of its condition. If it wasn’t for the fact that the contraption —and along with it, the instructions for it — were likely older than the pair of them, he’d be making yet another comment on how poorly organised the nerds kept their important documents. Then again, Neil made sure to shake down him and the rest of his boys at the end of each shop session, all to ensure that they weren’t pocketing tools to pawn or utilise for other unsavoury activity, so perhaps he wasn’t best suited to be judging their situation.
Dramatics aside, and convinced that the nerds should get themselves a Neil, Johnny started to flick through the leaflet he’d plucked from the pile first, searching for anything of use. When it soon became clear this wasn’t a one-manual-will-reveal-all situation, he couldn’t help but let out a groan of annoyance.
Surely taking the gears out and giving the mechanism a good clearing — consequently tackling whatever trash that is surely shoved in there, would be a half decent first step, no matter how unaware he was of his second. Tackling the wiring would be a hell of its own, assuming that they too have fallen victim to the observatory’s rat epidemic.
“For all my trouble I expect to be gettin’ a free A+ in English— or Math,, whatever subject it is you’s are meant to be good at.”
Johnny starts working off a bolt as he speaks, gritting his teeth as the tool sheds sprinkles of rust onto his hand.
“I’m real surprised this sorta thing ain’t your expertise, I mean, ‘ya got a literal machine gun attached to the backgate from what Hopkins has been tellin’ me. No wonder we always find your boys diggin’ through our car scrap.”
whatchu feel bout peanut
That's my right hand man you're askin' bout, whatdya think I'm gonna feel 'bout my best pal? I dunno what rumours you've been lettin' fill that head'a yours but me and him are friends --we ain't nothing more and nothing less..
Screw this, gonna go find him. Way better company than you nosy kids..
What do ya' think about people shipping you With derby or any other prep?
Shipping? Swear I've heard that nerd girl goin' on about that before.. --if you think I'd lay my lips on any of those prissy princesses then your shit outta luck. I'd be quicker t'kiss the whole football team-- or even 'them 'm Blueskies bastards before Harrington and his posse.
..Why Harrington spefifically --'ya ain't been hearin' any rumours have 'ya? Cause they ain't true.
ooc comment: im a massive fan of johnny x prep ships, assuming that there is a progression of the prep in that scenario unlearning their classism rather than it immediately being discarded for the sake of the ships plausibility. i try to make johnnys vendetta against the preps treatment of him and his boys a keypart of his character while roleplaying him, and whilst he might put up with lola's cheating i feel like he'd be a lot less charitable with his partner constantly disrespecting him and his boys/the residents of new coventry in general. this doesn't apply to when these ships are in a more "casual"/less exclusive state, because he'd probably care a little less considering the lack of ball and chain/public knowledge of their relationship.
You make it so easy to hate you, GOD
@richest-bloodline
So much hate in that heart'a yours for me yet you're constantly comin' round to cause a fuss. Got a little something you're wantin' to admit? Because I certainly ain't part'a your "social class" yet you seem to be doing a whole lotttt of botherin'..
how did you meet the other greasers?
(or how did they join?)
Most'a us grew up together, street kids forming packs and stuff like that y'know? New Coventry ain't no different. If they came from a street I wasn't familiar with, then the academy introduced me to 'em.
Us Greasers are a lot less like those Bullhorn Bastards or any of those other groups, we ain't got no smarts, wealth or strength requirement. We see one of our own come along, and we welcome them in.
Johnny I don't think you and lola got it good I think you guys should just, cut it, no offense my guy
How 'bout ya come find me and spout this sorta bull to my face instead. I ain't get myself involved with you and Lefty's couples quarrels so you ain't needa go gettin' yourself involved in me and Lola's. Capiche?
C'mon Squirt, you're one'a my boys. Don't go picking fights that ain't need picked.
damn you can't take a little advice about your girl huh? Got it im sorry big J i won't do it again we good right can i still come by the shop tomorrow
Your advice ain't nothin' different than what the gossips spit, me and Lola are endgame and anyone with their head straight can see it.
'Course ya can,, not like I'd go banning you over a spat.
Who was the greaser leader before you??
Who're 'ya, some sorta narc? You ain't need to know him. Been at Bullworth since I was a boy so I've seen a couple rise n' fall, my boss was a special one and I ain't feel the need to spill his secrets t'ya.
Johnny I don't think you and lola got it good I think you guys should just, cut it, no offense my guy
How 'bout ya come find me and spout this sorta bull to my face instead. I ain't get myself involved with you and Lefty's couples quarrels so you ain't needa go gettin' yourself involved in me and Lola's. Capiche?
C'mon Squirt, you're one'a my boys. Don't go picking fights that ain't need picked.
'Hey, Johnny. Checking in with the guys because I have Tumblr now. How has everyone been holding up?'
@out-of-bullworth (Damir's brother, Bernard.)
Bernard? Fuck, man. Haven't seen you in a hell of'a while, me and the boys where startin' to think you skipped town or somethin'? Yeah- yeah, fellas have been great, y'know how it is.
Screw this website stuff, we gotta catch up for real man, face t'face and all that.
{Can i ask your favorite Johnny ships? Canon implied or canon or wtv :3}
(ooc post, in no particular order) yesyes offf courseee!! in no particular order i find myself very partial to;
Lola Lombardi x Johnny Vincent - If its not obvious from a few of the roleplays I've had on this blog so far with the lovely @/lo-lombardi (literal angel, adore them so much), I'm a big sucker for these two. Evil bisexuals participating in the most unethical non-monogamy you've ever seen, but both of them will tell anyone who'll listen that "we love each other in a special way you'll never understand".
Larry "Peanut" Romano x Johnny Vincent - It's Jonut. What else can I say,, beloved Jonut. Classic "clique leader x second in command" dynamic, accompanied by massive amounts of yearning. Just typing this is making me miss my favourite Peanut roleplayer sigh.
Lucky De Luca x Johnny Vincent - I enjoy the silliness of them being "the clique leader" x "the actual, much more responsible and emotionally stable, clique leader", and I think Lucky would treat Johnny's previous relationship with Lola in a sensitive way that Johnny would appreciate.
Norton Williams x Johnny Vincent - Mainly enjoy them as a pair considering Norton is the greaser we see arguing with Lola at the start of Finding Johnny Vincent, along with the fact Norton's gossip lines mostly revolve around Johnny and his relationship with Lola. He's not a fan of Lola and sometimes I like to view that as being less to do with loyalty and more to do with feelings!
Bif Taylor x Johnny Vincent - JOHNBIF. If you know me, you know I adore "enemies to lovers", Johnbif is my guilty pleasure especially considering the pair are canonically enemies, as I find it so fascinating that Johnny has the most hatred geared towards the Preps second in command rather than their leader. Hating each other in public and being attracted to each other in private?? Sign me up.
Derby Harrington x Johnny Vincent - It's DirtMoney guys, what else can I say. Classic "rival clique leaders", with the added bonus of shame and feeling like they're betraying their boys for indulging in such a relationship. As I'm writing this I've already recieved another ask specifically revolving around Johnny's opinion on being "shipped" with preps, which I'll certainly sneak more of my own ooc opinion into because I do actually have quite a lot to say about Prep x Greaser ships.
Edgar Munsen x Johnny Vincent - Muncent. Back when I was too nervous to interact/post in the fandom, one of the few posts I mustered up the nerve to reblog was a Muncent post, and ever since I've been infatuated. I enjoy seeing Johnny being the one having to repent for his classism, and being educated on how hating the poorer isn't making the rich think any higher of him. Townie x Greaser ships are peak and I shan't listen to those who dare claim they aren't!
Mandy Wiles x Johnny Vincent - I think it would've been extremely interesting if they decided to keep the scrapped Jandy content canon and ingame, because having it explicitly implied and shown that Johnny is also actively cheating on Lola just adds so many more layers to that hefty onion. I think they're cute in a "this is the ideal outcome" because Mandy certainly deserves better than Ted, and whilst Johnny isn't all that better than Lola there's certainly healthier options.
