Hey. So. Reblogging this post again. I may or may not have spent the night doing... research.
Here's a list of every canonical Mr. Lancer fact.
And yes, I did re-watch the show for this. And re-read the comics.
No canonical first name. He's just Mr Lancer. Surname comes from a café near Nickelodeon HQ.
Crossdresses for fun, and then uses a photo on his desk of him crossdressing as emotional blackmail. Wore a red wig and a pink sparkly dress.
Owns a green tuxedo suit with a blue undershirt that he wears for prom events. Honestly pretty cute.
Huge fan of Shakespeare, and organizes the Casper High theater performances. Quotes plays a lot. Thinks Danny is a surprisingly good actor (when given a script. Danny can't improvise for the half-life of him).
Has both striped-pink and Shakespeare-themed underwear.
Super close to Jazz. She trusts him more than any other teacher, and he supported her every step of her education. She comes to him to talk about Danny. 10/10
"Ahh, everybody's mood has lifted, as though some gloomy malevolence has been shooed away. Your disappearing act worked marvelously," is an actual quote from the show. He unironically talks like this.
Despite being bald, he’s so hairy it's concerning. So much back hair. Shaves constantly.
Good friends (and silly rivals) with Tetslaff.
Has a Casper High Ravens coffee mug.
The staff alternates hosting the Halloween Haunted House every year. He thus has a very high tolerance to jumpscare horrors.
Literally suspended everyone who skipped class to go to Ember's show.
His license plate is “LNCR.” He drives an old blue car.
His biggest fear is not understanding basic math. Hates the sound of nails on a chalkboard.
Teaches English and History (and occasionally Maths). Also taught Astronomy as an elective. Might be an overall course coordinator? He's also the Vice Principal, right under Ishiyama.
Also, one of Lancer's main staff offices has security cameras, apparently? It's a very pink office with a globe and a few chairs. It shows up every few episodes in season 1 as a surprisingly consistent background. It's where he does his PTA meetings.
Was stuck in a closet for a whole weekend. RIP
Was the one that initiated school-wide ghost drills and actual ghost protection (even if the safety measures started off a little lame).
Collects tiny trains in his basement, and has a blue train conductor outfit to match. Calls the model town “Lancerville.”
The first male cheerleader at Casper High, and possibly the district. Main organizer of Spirit Week, and full of school spirit.
Loves meat, and made a BBQ for the teachers when Sam insisted on the vegan menus. This was, I might note, right before ghosts first showed up.
Handcuffed C.A.T test answers to his wrist.
Was honestly really disrespectful towards minimal wage jobs, especially those that worked at the Nasty Burger. Not cool, Lancer.
In the TUE timeline, was forgotten after he died :(
Swears in book titles. All books are context-relevant, so that the themes, characters, or double meanings of the title apply to the situation.
Buys his own Christmas gifts. Also, he has a fireplace, and his living room is so brown.
Horrible reputation amongst students, mostly because they think he's very lame. Really bad at addressing bullying, somewhat because he also suffers it. He's constantly busy with students calling him for stuff.
Has a metal plate with his name to make his desk look fancy. Also has a framed photo with three rebel students, which might imply he used to be a foster parent or something of sort.
Commits tax fraud! All adults in Amity Park do. I'm led to believe it's to cover up the financial costs of ghost disasters, but the reason is never confirmed. Also openly refuses to cooperate with the feds (GIW) until they threaten him with his tax crimes. Love that he's anti-fed. Good for him.
Canonically a pro gamer. Loves old sci-fi and talks to himself while gaming. Beat the main trio. Goes to the arcade when he can.
Honestly pretty biased at first; especially towards the jocks, because of aforementioned hyper school spirit. He also gave the worst detentions, including physical labor. Behavior improved as the series progressed, thank goodness.
Happiest when he sees his students succeed. He is so proud of them, he wants nothing but the best for them in life. He actively tries to help them study and gives them so many chances. Amazing.
Led the school trip with Tetslaff. She made him wear a bear costume "to keep the kids happy and take their minds off the disappearances." He did it without hesitation. He was SO concerned for students when they started disappearing :(
Reads books on teenage behavior and teen jargon, such as "How to Sound Hip for the Unhip." That's very skibidi rizz, no cap.
Loved dry white toast. Of course he does.
Genuinely concerned Danny wasn't eating enough. Also went out of his way to make sure that Danny got to the safe area during a ghost attack.
Tried to roll a boulder up a hill like Sisyphus and almost succeeded.
Uses a fire extinguisher to protect his students from a monster. Hell yeah.
Also used to be paid per grade, which is in itself a terrible system. Thus sees his students' failures as a measurable reflection of his own.
Has a very nice bathroom at home, actually. It's teal with some checkered patterns and a deconstructed flower painting. Good design.
Helped run Dora's beauty pageant, which went horribly wrong in every way. Has three lines in that episode and he speaks Old English the entire time??
Also tried to start a school radio, which also went horribly wrong.
Used to like the Fenton parents, but not as much now, both for letting Danny "slack off" and repeatedly targeting him with ghost weapons.
Surprisingly, almost as tall as Jack Fenton.
Take this, use it for any blorbo reasons.
