do y’all fuck with ben/mike/bev
was reading a fic a few days ago and the ben and mike scenes were rly cute in it
the funny thing is, the fic wasn’t even meant to be between them as a ship. i checked the tags, thinking i had missed something when i finished it and was like, “why the fuck is this tagged benverly? this is literally benlon.”
wip of the boys playing chess but the pieces are random so dont @ me
@rosegoldeddie asked: Benlon nsfwish, ft. body positivity (aka differing body shapes) if you can! If not… then how about some Mike hanlon as a vet ♥ I hope you like it
Can you do Mike Hanlon but skip: least favorite thing about them, nOTP, and unpopular opinion? :)
I was not thinking when I reblogged this right before bed but YES I CAN
Favorite Thing: How much he loves his friends 🥺 But also his resilience. Mike stayed in Derry, gave up a chunk of his life to stay in a town that would, on the whole, not give a damn about him, even rather see him dead, to stay a post that he knew would be forgotten if he left. He did that to help a town that didn’t care, and he did that for the people he loved most. I would die for Michael Hanlon FIGHT ME.
Favorite Line: I won’t lie, I don’t know a lot of Mike lines, but the first that pops to mind is: “I don’t know, it’s just a place I’ve always wanted to go.” (In terms of Florida in Ch2). Also “It’s a root.”
Brotp: Benlon. I love book nerds hanging out in the library with snacks having competitions to see who can find the weirdest history about the town. They regret them every time but it’s still fun.
OTP: Bike. Stanlon is a very, VERY close second. But my eyes were opened to Bike after Ch2 and I just cannot shake it, I love it so much.
Random head canon: Mike whittles. So each of the Losers have little wooden figurines, hand carved specifically for them.
Song I associate with them: Oh! Fire On the Mountain by Rob Thomas is one; and Silence by Marshmello and Khalid.
Favorite Picture of them: I’m not sure if this means like fan art or picture from film or just like fc but:
We love a happy man 🥺
Thought: Ben Hanscom and Mike Hanlon could’ve been the bestest of friends without Ben having to steal Mike’s personality.
Mike is homeschooled, so he would hang out in the library LOADS to learn and read about things that his family can’t teach. He’d probably have all the time in the world to read almost all the non-fiction books there, he’s very interested in the world outside of Derry and he knows his way around the entire library (so much so that the librarian would often ask him to help out). However, Mike prefers the books that expand his knowledge rather than those that tip it over into the realms of fantasy, so he doesn’t read much of the fiction (unless it contains many historical references and remains practically grounded in reality).
Ben would be more into literature and arts (having written the ‘haiku’ poem for Beverly) and with him being the new kid he brings all this outside knowledge to the librarian, giving book suggestions as the library is in dire need for new ones.
Mike and Ben bump into each other very often in the library, Mike is fascinated by the possibilities of all of Ben’s outside knowledge of the rest of the world. They finally have chance to speak when Ben picks up the nerve to ask him where the non-fiction books about Greek Statues are, Mike caves due to sheer excitement that he can finally talk to the ‘Boy from Out of Town’ and he ends up giving him a full tour of the library, giving him book recommendations along the way and a quick summary of what he deemed important for each one. He would also skip relatively fast through the fiction section as nothing really suited him personally until Ben stops, takes a book from the ‘crime’ section and points at it, handing it over to Mike as he does so. Ben would then go on to say how much one of the main characters reminded him of Mike as they too had a deep interest for the History of the Earth, even though Ben barely knew Mike outside of his vast knowledge of the library, Mike would hold on to it and later borrow it once Ben had left.
Mike would recommend more non-fiction books to Ben, specifically those about Ancient Architecture (which would then develop Ben’s love for the subject and hint at his future as an architect) and that’s how I think Ben’s knowledge of How To Build a Dam would originate from, just from reading a book that Mike recommended. Ben would also recommend books too, fiction. It took Ben a few weeks to have a look through the library’s entire selection of fiction, remembering what he had and hadn’t read, but he got there in the end and hands over some of his favourites to Mike. Mike’s skeptical at first but he notices that most of these aren’t even books he’s fully noticed before, he reads them and enjoys all of them (to some extent, he still found them ridiculous but came to accept that as he progressed through them). They’d exchange book recommendations until Ben has exhausted his and turns to his lending Mike his own books from home that aren’t available at Derry’s library. Mike is now convinced that he wants to open up a bookshop when he eventually moves away and travel all across the world a wide variety of books for it.
They’d just be complete nerds together. Mike would also help out when Ben needed to study, testing his knowledge with flash cards and random questions he passes to him on Ben’s notepad. On the front of this notepad Ben had written the name “Book Buddies” and Mike absolutely loves it! They’re both incredibly happy as they were both each other’s first best friend, Mike doesn’t care that Ben might move away he’s just happy to have found someone who’s NOT his family OR a bully and Ben doesn’t care either because he’s managed to get Mike’s home phone number so they can discuss some of the books louder at home without the risk of the librarian shushing them. They’d also discuss their personal lives on the phone too, Ben would often talk about the girl in his Social Studies class and Mike would ask about his school experience and his experience in each state he’s been in. They’d talk over the phone for hours until either Mike is dragged away to the sheep or Ben’s mother decides to take him out shopping with her.
