Hello people of the blog-o-sphere ! This is a blog fully dedicated to RTC headcanons and writing/rants !
You can anonymously (or publicly) suggest topics of interest, ask me about my thoughts on certain things, and tell me that my only purpose is writing for the people
I try to post once every two weeks, but it does depend on circumstances. Recently my schedule has been off due to personal reasons. Quantity of posts has been reduced due to my growing lack of interest in Ride The Cyclone, but i vow not to quit unless it gets to a point where i can’t even make in-character content. If i do quit, i will post every draft and announce my resignation.

If your requests don’t follow my personal opinion, i will still write them. I run this blog for those who like Ride The Cyclone, so i will take any suggestions as long as they are not hurtful or deliberately wrong.

Examples of bad asks include but are not limited to
Noel x female character - obviously Noel x Ocean or something there’s not much to make an example with

That’s all ! Have fun reading or requesting these headcanons !
hello ! this is a rather important post, no headcanons.
If you haven’t noticed, I haven’t posted… though, i’m sure most of you have noticed. My lovely curse of neurodivergence unfortunately causes me to completely drop one hyperfixation for another one, and I now struggle with writing headcanons that are actually in character for the character i’m writing for. I haven’t wanted to do this, i’ve tried to get back into writing headcanons by rewatching Ride The Cyclone with no luck. So, i’m giving up.
Instead of fully going inactive, I’m allowing someone to take over the account for me. Since i use tumblr through a drawing app (due to strict parents and restrictions), i can’t actually give someone the login or anything, so any ideas on how to hand over the account is greatly appreciated.
I know i haven’t even been on tumblr so long, and i regret that deeply, but it’s just how things played out.
Please DM me if you’d like to take over for me or at least help with letting someone else take over.
Monique from ride the cyclone is very obviously transfem coded like. her ENTIRE song is about wanting to be a french woman who's a bit fucked up. come on now
hi i’m so so so very sorry i haven’t been answering requests (i haven’t gotten any requests recently but i still have some in my inbox), and also not posting on schedule
this one just a little different than my other posts, but i hope you still like it
Modern RTC headcanons
MISHA
-Misha would’ve been a weird younger version of those white millennial mothers who know every lyric to Eminem
-^yeaaaahh he’d have a breakdown if he heard Eminem was getting cancelled + be happy when he found out Eminem isn’t homophobic (i’m pretty sure that’s true i’m not 100%)
-Misha is Roblox and Minecraft player (iPad kid alert)
-^He still would’ve been an outdoor kid when he was little but he’d grow up to play kids games for fun
-Had a nintendo and loved it
-Brainrot 💔💔
-Falls for ragebait far too easily
-^forces Noel and Ricky to watch it and at one point Noel blocked him because all he would send was ragebait or brainrot youtube shorts
-Accidentally ragebaits Noel (telling him about ragebait videos he watched and getting pissed when Noel isn’t as annoyed as him)
-Back to Noel blocking him, he cried when he found out his messages weren’t sending and had to go to his house to beg Noel to unblock him
-Genuinely hates 6 7 (me too i genuinely am filled with rage and need to punch something every time someone, especially when someone i am close with does it)
-has said ‘do you love me’ ‘yes’ ‘on skibidi?’
NOEL
-Noel would’ve been even more miserable.
-Would’ve deleted youtube (if he ever had it) because of brain rot shit
-Would’ve given up Taco Bell for Hot Topic (yes, i know it was already a company but i feel like they definitely would’ve built one at the mega mall by then)
-Definitely would’ve done research on every social media about Talya (Doesn’t want Misha to fall for a catfish or worse some dickwad using AI)
-Thrives off of I Saw The TV Glow (me too)
-^Relates to Owen in the worst way (i’m rocking back and forth in a fetal position get me out)
-Way too many angry blowups due to people using brainrot
-^he’s not easily ragebaited, it takes a lot to make him angry, but when it’s his close friends it’s much easier to make him snap or yell at them
-hi, i know this is tumblr but Noel would definitely have Tumblr and pinterest
OCEAN
-Clean girl (not as obsessive as those girls with hundreds of dollars spent on products)
-Got flagged for using AI just because she’s a try-hard (she cried in front of the teacher and the teacher saw how distressed she was and figured out that it was real)
-^Noel compares the way she talks to Chat GPT
-^^used em-dashes and semicolons
-Would’ve loved calling every movie/show/book/etc historically inaccurate just so she could prove she was smarter than people
-(begrudgingly) says ‘lock in’ to the choir just so they pay attention
-^Misha cycled through the stages of grief in like three seconds when she did so
CONSTANCE
-Loves her brother but he’s an iPad kid
-^Misha gets along with her brother because of it (it’s absolute hell for Constance)
-sells recipes, crochet patterns, crocheted items, crafts, etc on Etsy
-found an AI crochet pattern and had to stare at the finished product for three minutes with disappointment before realizing why it turned out bad
-loves those keyboard extensions with decorations (stars, bows, etc)
-this probably isn’t modern but i can see her loving gummy snacks and possibly using melatonin gummies to help sleep
RICKY
-The special ed classes improved only slightly in Uranium and so now he just leaves class early so he can get to classes on time rather than hobbling in his crutches through a crowd of students
-Kind of dislikes the newer starwars movies and shows, feels like beating a dead horse at this point
-actually really good at spotting AI videos / photos somehow
-i’m too lazy to do research but they definitely are an ao3 addict
-^sadly found out what omega verse was at a young age
-shrinky dink earrings (idk if that’s ‘modern’ but i think they’d do it so)
PENNY
-Uses brainrot but ironically (genuinely hates the straight guys for using it unironically)
-Loved those stickers/pins that mentioned lobotomies (‘On my way to get a lobotomy!’ ‘ask me about my lobotomy’ etc)
-avid Hot Topic shopper with Noel
-Has definitely said ‘the end is soon’ and jokingly played into that one guy who believed God told him when we would go to heaven (i forgot the name of it sorry) (also uhh i’m christian but i’m also also dumb so sorry if this is offensive ??)
-^edit, the Rapture, someone reminded me of the word earlier
-favourite word is probably ‘whimsy’
-^likes those quotes about the world needing more whimsy
I WAS REWATCHING RTC MISHA’S LITTLE LAUGH AFTER NOEL TELLS HIM ‘that’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me !’ IN THE 2016 PROSHOT BRO IS NOT LISTENING !!
sorry if this sucks it’s kind of old and some parts are a little weird but i can’t be bothered to rewrite it merry late christmas
Noel at work.
He’d be frowning his whole shift, even during his short break. He’d force a weak grimace-like smile his eyebrows still creased when he served specific customers.
He hated his coworkers, the only decent person was a girl who lived in a different city but came to this mall because it was the only job that hired her. She was a mild ally, so she didn’t ever mention Noel being feminine after the first time she asked if he was gay— unlike Noel’s male coworkers and some other girl who kept saying ‘Oh my gosh! You’re like, my gay best friend!’ Noel always stayed at least one metre away from her.
Noel’s main job was cleaning (thank god, Noel loved cleaning and organizing), but he also had to manage the register. Whenever a customer asked for the manager, he’d just tell them ‘look, other than me, the only other employee here is sitting in the break room watching a show and not doing their job. i’m your best bet at a manager.’
There would be the occasional customer who was clearly homophobic, so he’d slowly shift to his ‘straight guy’ voice so they didn’t do anything worse than shouting or glaring at him.
fun fact, Noel never used third person pronouns to address Monique (he only said ‘fucked up girl’) so she might as well be just a drag queen like in Jean Genet’s book
this isn’t my post of the week i’m just bored also yeah kind of the same thing as the last post
piggybacking off of the last Noel post (only the topic of his nails) but whatever we ball
this is technically canon since Kholby talked about it in the 2015 recording where they talked about the characters and preformed the songs but no one talks about it. also i say ‘repaint’ and ‘nail polish’ 18 times don’t comment on it please i’m dumb.
Noel picking off his nail polish isn’t just an anxious habit, rather a self deprecating action that came from his mother telling him to blend in. He wants to please to his mother, so he resolutely tries to get the nail polish off before just repainting his nails in a fit of rebellion.
Noel tells himself that he should get the nail polish off so the people at school stop nagging him about it, but just before he picks it all off he think ‘I’m just being myself, this is my decision,’ and repaints them.
He’s stuck in a cycle of shame and anger, trying to ‘dial it back’ as asked of his mother, then late at night, when he’s recharging from being around the jackasses he calls ‘classmates’, he decides that he prefers to stick out and repaints his nails.
This goes on, slowly just becoming a habit. He’d begin picking off the polish without thinking, then look down at the chipped paint and frown.
Noel would ‘paint’ his nails with a black marker at school and then wash it off in last period before his mother could find out he was doing that. The smell was rancid (yes i am referencing), it disgusted him, but it went away eventually. It made him more euphoric than sickened, anyway.
posting two short things today cause i’m lazy to write long things
Constance who didn’t get to watch her brother grow up. Constance who was excited to see her brother grow up. Constance who planned on helping her brother get through middle school and high school whenever it got difficult. Constance whose brother grew up to ask for his sister’s help when he was alone, knowing she couldn’t answer.
assuming the choir was together before, misha would be like, the last one to join the group, right? so just ocean and noel are fighting like crazy and mishas all confused and rickys just like... no. this is their thing. this is what they do. no don't stop either of them they'll yell at you too
