Okay but imagine babies Eddie (5) and Steve (4) trying to take care of a 3 year old Billy. They're not alone no their moms(Steve's nanny) are all watching them from the side and smiling at them.
Billy fell after he slides and Steve saw him so he run to help him. And Eddie follows him behind because Steve was his bestEST friend. And they just stand beside Billy as he cry and hold his scratched knee.
Steve takes a neatly folded handkerchief from his little pocket and holds it on the blonde boys knee. And when Billy won't stop crying Eddie just goes down and smooch his chubby pink cheeks. "I kiss it better" he say to the kid "my mom always kiss it better and it always works!". And when the blonde boy stops crying and looking at the other two brunettes with his teary eyes and snotty nose Steve just went in slowly and wipe his nose with his expensive shirts sleeve. Billy was looking a little better now. Blue eyes shiny from all the crying and nose is shiny from the snot. He then went in and give him a smooch too. And Billy smiled at him. After that they always stay together and never left each other when the others cry.
Heyyyy, how are ya? Do ya have any hc for kid!Billy or teen!Billy? Thanks!
A/n: as it turns out, I have a lot anon. Here are the things we've already discussed and some new:
kid!Billy
I'm a firm believer that good or bad people don't exist, we're all are the product of our circumstances and you can't fault someone for being selfish or whatever if they've grown up in a situation where if they needed something they had to take it for themselves
that's Billy
I genuinely believe that he has a gentle soul and therefore was a soft-spoken child. the change came in his teens
he didn't have an easy childhood, we all know this
I imagine little Billy to be a loner, closed in his little bubble
it made things easier for him to be in his world
sure, whenever new kids arrived at the group home he was curious about them
and tried to befriend
but he learned soon enough that those relationships are temporary
and Billy has a big heart and wants nothing more but to love and be loved
so after a while, he doesn't bother with the new kids anymore
I've said before that little Billy is scared of thunderstorms or in general of loud noises
I can see him building a little fort with his blanket and pillow and his stuffed animal
we've also talked about the potential presence of a loving figure
I don't think he's been that lucky but admitting that he had been and there was a lovely old lady to take care of the kids then Billy would absolutely love her
and she, him in return
he loved watching her doing even the simplest of chores. he had always thousands of questions and even asked her to teach him.
and then leads me to another side of Billy: his creativity and curiosity
Billy loves to learn new things
and since he didn't enjoy much interacting with the other kids, sports and other similar activities were off the list
so that left books, drawing and even writing
that's not to say that Billy loved to write but he enjoyed the process of learning and writing fit right into it.
it was a challenge for him
once he had conquered it, he put that aside and moved onto the next thing
Teen!Billy
now, I've said before that when I think of teen Billy I think of angst. a lot of angst
being a teenager is all about trying to fit in, find your place in the world etc
of course, this process for Billy was even harder.
he didn't fit it
and to be fair, he didn't even try that hard
unfortunately, when you were an orphan people put a label on your back
people were either straight up rude or abusive or those who tried to approach Billy did so for pity
and he hated both of those things
the thing is that Billy knows loss and abandonment and he's not keen on repeating the experience
people leave, that's life, so why bother getting attached to them?
I feel like this would be Billy's philosophy
so he makes it even harder for people to approach him or become his friend
and let's be honest, people do not bother much with those that are considered weird or different for some reason. even more so in high school
so yep, I don't think Billy like to go to school that much
but if that's something he learned was how to defend himself
he took up fighting
at first, it was just survival. bullies harassed him and when they strike, Billy answered. it was more of an instinct really
but then, he opted for honing this ability and started to train
very amatorially but still, he got the results he wanted
and even took it up as a way of making money
he was about to turn 18 and he knew that he needed to make something out of himself if he wanted to survive in this world
never had he thought about fighting for a living
even more so joining the military
but once, during one of his fights, someone approached him and talked about "his options" and invited him to become a recruit
we all know what happened
Billy place a bet on his fighting skills and took that path
but honestly, Billy had always been smart
he could have easily found another way of becoming someone
it would have been extremely hard but in the end, he had no one he could rely on for counsel
he had only himself
at least, by joining the military he met Frank and found a family that loved him
so yeah, all the pain had been worth it in the end
How do you think kid!Billy reacted when he first heard a horror story? My friend came up with this question and I have no idea how to answer it 🤔
Aaa okay, I think it depends.
Billy is not like every kid. Young as he is, he's already seen some pretty awful stuff. And even if he still isn't fully aware of what exactly he has seen and what it means, it has opened his eyes and robbed him of children's typical naivety.
For this reason, as much as he's spooked by loud noises and thunderstorms, I don't think Billy would be frightened by clowns or ghosts. Because he's seen scary things and has lived them. What he cannot perceive or see, doesn't exist and therefore cannot hurt him.
If however, whoever is telling the story is a wonderful story teller, engaging and manages to make noises then yes, Billy could react to that.
