Elmer x JoJo hcs?

hi these are platonic but could be take in a romantic sense if you ship them! enjoy! <3

› jojo and elmer metin sunday school at the young age of seven years old, making theirs one of thelongest-standing friendships within the group. elmer was the first person toshorten “jorgelino” into “jorgie”, which, over the course of their friendshipand learning his lengthy full name, became jojo, the name that he now goes by.on more serious occasions, elmer will still revert to his first nickname forjojo.

› elmer fell out oftouch with the church at around age thirteen when he realized that he wasn’tstraight. both confused, the boys grew apart from each other, speaking less andless over the years until jojo tried to bring him back with the notion that thechurch will accept elmer the way he is. he isn’t as involved with the church ashe used to be but will join jojo about once a month and for important holidays.

› they love to go seelive theater together. elmer was an avid theater kid (albeit only workingbackstage, usually with costumes) in high school, and introduced jojo to it bytaking him to see waitress on broadway. jojo fell absolutely in love and nowthey both enjoy supporting their local community theaters by helping out on setdays, volunteering backstage, and seeing the shows.

› elmer has amassed alarge collection of blankets and throw pillows in his house. jojo contributesto this about once every three months with a small gift to elmer.

› jojo taught elmerhow to read. it was a long, and, at times, very frustrating process for elmer,who often wanted to give up. with gentle pushes and prods, jojo was able toincrease his confidence in reading, not quite understanding why he had suchtrouble with a language he already spoke almost fluently. jojo discovered thatelmer was actually dyslexic, which was giving him a much harder time puttingthe words together. slowly, elmer was able to pick up the language, and for hissixteenth birthday, jojo gifted him his copy of the great gatsby.

» i’m just…i’m stupid. i can’t do it. allthe letters, they’re…they’re wrong.

» look at me, elmer. you’re not stupid.you’re so smart! you know two languages. just because you struggle withsomething doesn’t make you dumb, okay?

› jojo always bitsthe tip of whatever he’s writing with and elmer is pretty convinced that oneday it is going to kill him

› elmer doesn’t dodangerous things, but he certainly is very clumsy. he’s got scratches up anddown his arms, scrapes on his knees, and bruises covering his legs. he oftenturns corners too fast and runs backwards or waves his arms extremelyhyperactively. jojo stopped trying to get him to calm down a long time ago, andinstead carried around a box of band-aids for him (elmer’s favorites are thekid band-aids that have cool patterns and characters on them. he collects themon his body like boo-boo stickers).

› they love to volunteer!anywhere is fair game—soup kitchens, community gardens, pregnancy centers—but theirabsolute favorite spots to volunteer are animal shelters. one of these sheltersis actually where jojo got his cat, marshy (it’s short for marshmallow, he letelmer name her, of course). elmer also comes over and watches mushy when jojohas to be out of town.
