#currently working on a little fill-in-the-blanks fic abt his childhood/adolescence

[born-to-strange-sights]

Some Howl headcanons that I will probably be including in some drabbles in the near future. (Part 1, Sophie’s are next!!)

~ QUICK STATS ~

Fav Color: Green. Dark green

Fav Food: Idk some Welsh shit?? Cake??? He says he likes cake that one time. Probably spaghetti

Fav Drink: Earl Grey? Or brandy. Or both at once. He’d do that

Fav Animal: Hmmm. Horse. Or like... otters

(I’m......... not totally sure abt these but whatever)

~STUFF I’M MORE SURE ABOUT~

- Absolute bi disaster

- Saw Rocky Horror Picture Show when it premiered in London in 1975 at age 16 and was INSTANTLY obsessed. Megan actually loves it too though it took her much longer to come around to it and she’s not as fanatical about it as Howl. They lowkey bond over it

- He absolutely goes as Frank N. Furter for Halloween one year, Megan refuses to be seen with him

- Loves Led Zeppelin, Jim Croce, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Jethro Tull, The Who, The Kinks, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Simon & Garfunkel, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, and The Allman Brothers..... but also ABBA, Devo, Bowie, Queen, The Bee Gees, etc. cause he’s ~an intellectual~ but he’s also a dramatic bitch who loves campy shit

- Also he loves the blues. Why? Bc I just feel like he would. He just thinks it’s neat. He also thinks it makes him seem cool and edgy. Plus he was a lil kiddo in the 60’s so he maybe sorta grew up with it?? I mean idrk how well-dispersed the blues were in Wales in the 60’s-80’s but whatever

- WORSHIPS David Bowie probably. I don’t really know much abt David Bowie and personally I don’t really like him but I know he was a cool weird androgynous groundbreaking charismatic famous dude which is basically Howl’s dream

- THEATER KID THEATER KID except the snobby literary kind like “ew musicals? *scoff* peasants, I only read CHEKHOV and SHAW and of course Shakespeare but only occasionally bc I’m not basic like the rest of you bitches”

- He never really came out to his family but they all suspected, there were fights about it occasionally:/

- He loved the book Peter Pan as a kid

- Smoked a literal FUCK ton of weed in high school lmao
