Katherine Plumber Pulitzer HCs

Fluff HCs My masterlist

davey sometimes just comes along and,, scoop (again, she’s 5’3 and davey’s about 6’1)

picks her up and just

snatch (ily mike) regardless of what she’s doing

she’s an absolute hoe for cuddles, honestly, platonic or romantic, she could cuddle for hours

she’s Incredibly ticklish

i’ve mentioned this in my appearance hcs, but she will always steal the hoodies and sweaters of her S/O

will probably fall asleep while studying or just cuddling, regardless of the time of day

she snorts when she laughs

usually has a pencil or pen tucked behind her ear

she just might melt if you call her “kathy”

if she’s feeling cute, she’ll draw hearts in place as dots for her i’s or j’s

stars make her feel safe

she’ll meet up and have a girl

dad sneezes

one year jack got her a box of cheesy jokes, her favourite is “what’s jayz’s favourite cheese? brie-once!” (get it? Because,, beyonce?”

her and race have study “““dates””” sometimes

she meets up with jack and the gang™ most weekends, at least once a month

god she doesn’t even know what a vine is so jack sits with her and makes her watch vine compilations every so often, though i suppose this could count as angst-

her and albert formed a ginger club

messy baker but good baker! Her favourite thing to make is cherry pie

she can play the guitar and she’s learning the piano

used to do ballet, up until age 15

les wanted to have his nails painted blue (his favourite colour) so kath painted his nails for him and they do it every summer seen as he can’t wear nail polish at school (look i’m british i don’t know how tf american schools work)

she also does his make up for halloween every year, and sometimes sarah if she’s taking him around. But sometimes kath and davey take him around and they just put on some vaguely spooky clothing

she has so many fairy lights in her bedroom

also her bedroom is so aesthetically pleasing??

race wanted to dye his hair for pride, so naturally she helped with that

she and buttons hang out and darn socks or just sew buttons back onto shirts and such

crutchie sometimes does photography so she poses for him sometimes

She also poses for jack’s paintings sometimes

her and davey recite shakespeare together for english

her favourite artists are girl in red, cavetown, and owl city

has a playlist for every mood

writes poems sometimes, usually about girls or stars, sometimes guys too

if she zones out in class then she usually draws planets or stars on the corner of her page or down the margin

whenever she gets bored she scribbles stars on the cuffs of her jeans

low-key believes in the concept of soulmates

her favourite films are mean girls and the breakfast club

her favourite book is of mice and men

doesn’t like tea but will tolerate coffee because it’s the only thing that keeps her awake

[davey-in-a-minivan]

hear me out: post-apocalyptic newsies

as much as i’d love to participate in @the-games-changing​ and @evil-crutchie​‘s katherine appreciation month, there’s no way i’ll be able to post regularly BUT i DID want to share a kick-butt idea for a kath-centric post-apocalyptic newsies au!!

For two years, Katherine has been clawing her way up the ranks of the Pulitzer Corps, a paramilitary org determined to restore stability and government to what’s left of human kind-- at whatever cost. Before that? She doesn’t remember.

Then she’s sent out to collect a group of young survivors who have resisted joining the Pulitzer Corps. The routine job turns complicated when one of the boys calls her ‘Sarah’ and begs her not to turn them in. Assailed by a rush of splintered memories, she hesitates, then smashes her radio. Three days. Just do some reconnaissance, then once you’ve earned their trust you can take them in easily, she thinks. It’s not that simple.

Two of the boys-- Davey and Les, insist that she’s their sister, Sarah, who was kidnapped by the Pulitzer Corps two years ago. They, along with a handful of kids, act as messengers for a secret network that’s trying to resist the domination of the Pulitzer Corps. It’s a gold mine of information-- exactly the big break Katherine needs to shoot to the top of her division. But the longer she listens to them, the less sure she is of her mission, her past, or who she is at all.

Katherine Month- Week 1

I'm only doing one day a week so here's Modern Katherine!

~~

She's a journalist who lives in a bit of a fancy area of Manhattan

But not too fancy since she's not accepting any more of her dad's funding

Talking of Joseph Pulitzer

He's the Executive Principal of loads of schools in the specific area

Also he's Jack's boss

But back to Katherine

She loves wearing skirts and dresses, some of which she designs herself!

I like to think she's got a long haired tabby cat called Sylvester

He's old and blind in one eye but after hearing that loads of old, non white haired cats never get adopted (which they don't!) so she picked him up and he's hers

He looks a bit like this

She meets the Newsies through Jack

They go to a holiday party and she gets on well with him

They don't get together (cause he's with Crutchie) but they do have fun making fun of everyone

Then she hangs out with the newsies and meets Sarah

There's a lot of gay looks (tm) at the start

And they eventually get together

~~

I know it's a day late but here it is!

[the-games-changing]

i love my girl so so much

Katherine Plumber Pulitzer HCs

Appearance HCs My masterlist

5'3

kinda curvy

thicc thighs and they’re saving lives

lots of freckles!!

ginger hair

^^ very curly hair

her hair is usually tied up half up, half down, the up bit being a messy bun

Sometimes if she’s working then it will be in a full messy bun

she really should wear glasses but she just doesn’t, unless she’s too lazy/doesn’t have time to put contacts in

dresses like a nerd

so, she’ll wear a button up and a knitted jumper (collar on show) with either a pencil skirt (jumper and shirt tucked in) or a pair of jeans (jumper and shirt left out)

owns a fair amount of NASA merch

wears skirts and dresses sometimes too!

wears a lot of pink

eyeliner q u e e n, seriously though it’s amazing and so clean and crisp??

big brown eyes!!

usually has ink somewhere on her body

most of her jewellery is gold

always has a pair of hoops in

she has her seconds, usually has some small gold stars in

usually wears a necklace with a star pendant on that davey gave her

and a ring from jack that looks like an arrow is kind of wrapped around your finger

she doesn’t wear bracelets because they’re annoying and they get in the way but occasionally a scrunchie will be on her wrist, and most of the time she has a watch on

sometimes wears heels but usually trainers or sneakers

if she's wearing socks then they're probably odd socks

all her hoodies are way too big and are also probably aren't hers but are jack or davey’s, or generally any of the newsies (they TIGHT)

rolls up her jeans because they're usually too long

she usually carries a bag with her because of lack of pockets

and it’s got a Load of badges on it, some are fandom badges (say harry potter or musicals), some are animals or just nice little things, and some are more political

her nails are usually painted, most of the time light pink but she happily re-paints them just so that they match her outfit

a lot of her plain clothes and bags have small flowers embroidered into them, she learnt to sew as a kid and remembers the odd thing or two, there are a few starry designs (say constellations or the moon)

Katherine Plumber Pulitzer HCs

Angst HCs My masterlist

kicking this off with some low self-esteem, hey it’s due to her father

incredibly neat handwriting, seen as when she was a child, she’d be scolded (by her father) if it was even a little messy

overwhelmed p easily 

if you yell she will probably cry

spends too much time studying so she forgets to sleep often

also avoids sleeping because of nightmares

says sorry a lot

kinda lonely, bill and darcy are more of a pair and she just kind of tagged along before she met the newsies, but even then she feels bad because she feels like she’s invading their friendship group

will flip her shit if you call her “kitty” (as a shortened version of katherine)

has low expectations for herself but also very high standards for herself

doesn’t really know how to react to a compliment

careful to trust and cautious to make friends

short temper

can and will fight anyone, even if they’re like 10ft tall and hella hench

confident until her father, or someone close to him, is in the room, then she’s quiet and anxious

kinda scared of her father, he makes her anxious anyway

avoids her father as much as possible

occasionally gets nightmares of the times where joe went OFF and got the big angry

if she’s not smiling then she’s probably about to cry lmao

tends to avoid eye contact with adults

bottles her feelings

hates asking for help more than anything else

hust doesn’t know how to cope with anything

dresses smart so people think good of her

she really does try to take care of herself, but her priority is everyone else

body image is like hard and shit

wishes she was straight, hah don’t we all

hasn’t really ever had a real and good hanukkah so she cried when the jacobs’ invited her over for the holiday

Trigger warnings HCs, please be careful beyond this point

TW: self-harm, suicide, eating disorders, abuse, short mentions of: infertility, miscarriage, car crashes. oh yes, we’re going there.

hates eating

probably won’t eat by choice on a bad day, someone has to make her

self-harmed a lot in her teen years and it’s gotten better but she relapses occasionally 

she tried to commit aliven’t twice

both times pulitzer caught her and dragged her inside

he’s a dickhead i’ll tell you that

he yells at her a lot

and puts her down, but in a subtle way so it’s not obvious or aggressive

he basically tried to mold her into an entirely different person, obviously it didn’t work

occasionally he’ll grab her arm harsh enough to leave a bruise

if he’s really pissed off then he’ll press a cigar to burn her skin

jack was the first to notice and he confided in davey and he confided in his dad, who’s a social worker

she gets A Lot of shit for not being a perfect daughter/role model for her younger siblings, especially sisters

she tried to hide everything because she’s a good child™ 

either she’s infertile or has had many miscarriages (in adult life) i haven’t decided yet, but she ends up adopting

her sister, lucille, died when katherine was about 15, it was a car crash

story time

they were on their way back from somewhere,driving with the two of them in the car, another car drove into them somehow lucille died (cut me some slack i’m tired and uncreative)

Katherinepmonth2020 Wk 2

Fluffy headcanons for our Kathy!

~~

She loves fruit tea

And coffee

And just hot chocolate

She has cute pastel mugs for all her drinks (and China ones with painted flowers on for tea)

Of course she ties bows on her cat

And collects typewriters

And then she meets Sarah

She falls over

And then stutters a bunch

They get on swimmingly but they're being awkward gays

They meet up few more times before Katherine makes the move

She kisses her on the cheek a bit too long to be normal

And it goes on from there

~~

Not that long but angst is my forté, not fluff @the-games-changing

[cotton-buds-writing]
