also idk if ill ever watch euphoria but seeing as i have moots n everyone else also has the brainrot , lemme know if theres ways i can shove ray n chris into a verse :)
CHRIS CHAMBERS WAS TWELVE WHEN HE SAID ALL THAT TO ME. but while he was saying it his face crumpled & folded into something 𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫, 𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭, 𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔. he spoke tonelessly, colourlessly, but nevertheless, what he said struck terror into my bowels. it was as if he had lived that whole life already - that life where they tell you to step right up & spin the wheel of fortune, & it spins so pretty & the guy steps on a pedal & it comes up double zeros, house number, everybody loses. they give you a free pass & then turn on the rain machine, pretty funny, huh, ᴀ ᴊᴏᴋᴇ ᴇᴠᴇɴ ᴠᴇʀɴ ᴛᴇssɪᴏ ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ᴀᴘᴘʀᴇᴄɪᴀᴛᴇ.
nonverbal meme prompts ↪ they seem few & far between, so i tried to come up with as many scenarios as i could think of where dialogue wasn’t a necessary starting point. some are more uh specific than others / drabble-y, but they’re all dialogue-free ( tho ofc this does not necessarily extend to the response itself ). to reverse who sends what, send ‘ [ prompt ]+ ’ ! alter any as you see fit, & lemme know if anything’s unclear ♡

also uh ray’s basically been raising himself the past couple of years so , i’m sure that ties into it to
okay so ray’s whole like ,, being an annoying pain in the ass comes from a deep-seated need for like, attention & validation wrt his just . . . kind of existing ? like, if he didn’t garner himself the reputation he has, he’d just be known as ‘ luke’s kid brother ’ or ‘ kid whose dad is in jail ’ so he comes at it from this mindset of like ‘ well, you already think i’m no good ‘cause of my family connections so why should i waste my time trying to change your opinion on something you’ve already made ur mind up on ? ’ but that mindset’s more specifically for cops / adults / general authority figures. for ppl his own age he needs that attention & validation because it gives him a sense of his own self & being . . . even if it’s for being fucking annoying, or sleeping around, or whatever the fuck it is people say about him. the point is --- they’re saying it about him. the charm & need to like, get under your skin is kind of part & parcel of this whole thing like . proves to himself that despite what is said about him, he still has some kind of allure ( positive ) that makes ppl ignore those things - at least for a night, or something

“ i dont think good things are going to happen to me anymore. keeps me from being disappointed ” vs “ ‘ chris, ’ i said, ‘ why don't you go into the college courses ? you're smart enough. ’ ‘ they decide all of that in the office. and in their smart little conferences. the teachers, they sit around in this big circle-jerk and all they say is yeah, yeah, right, right. all they give a fuck about is whether you behaved yourself in grammar school and what the town thinks of your family. all they're deciding is whether or not you'll contaminate all those precious college-course dootchbags. but maybe i'll try to work myself up. i don't know if i could do it, but i might try. ( . . . ) i want to go someplace where nobody knows me and i don't have any black marks against me before i start. but i don't know if i can do it. ’ ”
(insp.)
okay i know i haven’t written anythning here yet, but that’s ‘cause i’m working on a post outlining why this is a headcanon heavy portrayal, & whilst there’s not really anything in show canon ray does that i don’t vibe with, i just --- don’t love how he’s written, & think i can mould him into smth better tbh
