can you tell me more about stand by me? i don't think I've seen u mention that before!
basically. i watched stand by me for the first time around the time season 2 of outer banks came out and i lost my mind.
it's more something that bounces around in my mind than something i'll really write in full but i love it so much.
the main characters in it are. . .
He's JJ's younger brother. He's the Chris equivalent of their group, and as such he falls into the position where he's not a bad kid, but because he's done a couple bad things and his family is generally considered untrustworthy everyone's convinced he's a bad kid. He's on the swim team and it is his absolute favourite thing. he also loves collecting little things from the beach, like shells and sea glass and old bottle caps. He's a really smart kid, but he's not really given the opportunity to flourish.
He's the Gordie equivalent, and as such he has an older brother- Eric, who died about a year before season one started, and wants to be a writer when he's older. He lives in Figure Eight, but he's been best friends with Julian since they were like- seven. they can really bond over their parents not caring where they are. ever. he always. always has loose change in his pocket.
He's the Teddy Duchamp equivalent. He lives really close to the Maybanks, and somehow, his dad is even more of a sketchy figure than Luke- although that's because he's actually- in jail for years and not just the odd stint. He has a younger sister named Rose, and his mom runs a marina. he's reckless and gets himself in trouble the way everyone thinks Julian does, he just almost never gets caught. He's that friend that gets on your nerves every single day, without fail, but in the kind of know it all, pretty much always right way
they're all like maybe- 12-13 around the time season one is happening, and really they're just- following the Pogues around because JJ can't keep his mouth shut and absolutely mentioned the treasure around Julian.
and then everything after that is basically just- vibes.
in my head i have a whole teen drama type thing planned for when they're teenagers- idk the exact details, but Julian and King end up dating.
Then, in true Stand By Me fashion, there's also a whole bit where they're adults, and that part heavily features themes of childhood nostalgia and wishing you could go back but knowing you can't.
I also have a pinterest board (x) and spotify playlists (x,x) for them!
