#now someone gimme an excuse to talk about the murphy siblings /hj

[sincerealev]

Thank you @milksteakkk for giving me an excuse to talk about them too 🕺🏻

Here goes:

Alana is a lesbian, and Jared is gay. Mlm 🤝 wlw solidarity

The way Alana discovered she was a lesbian is that she was watching a movie with Julie Andrews and then she was just hit with the realization

→ (Yes she had/has a crush on Julie Andrews, especially in The Sound Of Music)

Honestly, I think she'd enjoy vintage musical movies

Jared probably had a celebrity crush on Keanu Reeves at one point. I thought of this just now and it just made sense to me

Jared is the shortest of the friend group. Like, 5'5

→ Alana is slightly taller than him, like 5'6 or 5'7 (and then Evan is taller than her, like 5'9, for reference)

Jared's wardrobe is a mess, in the way that generally every morning he'll just put on whatever he finds first in his closet, doesn't take time to meticulously choose clothes that match

→ His favorite shirt is one that has a picture of a bowling ball knocking some bowling pins, and in comic sans it just says "bowling" underneath

Alana is the opposite, of course. She chooses her outfit of the day the night prior

Honestly, she's very grandmacore

→ She lives with her grandma too (yes, I know in canon she said her grandma died, but also, everyone has two sets of grandparents so shhh,,)

Jared collects stuff like miniature dinosaur figures or rocks. And also has a vast collection of comics, from vintage comics to the newest ones

Alana loves baking, when she's not busy with school work and such. Almost every week she'll come to school with baggies of cookies, or a Tupperware with cake to share with her friends :-)

She volunteers in a local library

Jared is kind of lazy, or more like distracted when it comes to school, but he also doesn't slack. He always ends up doing his assignments, studying for tests, and getting good grades (but the majority of the time he leaves stuff for the day before, which he regrets everytime)

When he's bored in class Jared will color in the squares in a notebook page with pencil

As patient and calm as she is, Alana can visibly get angry if you get in her nerves (this refers to Jared most of the time). She's good at controlling her anger though

→ Both Alana and Jared bicker a lot, honestly. It's kind of funny to see

Jared has three pairs of glasses. One of them are prescription sunglasses, which he uses to feel cool

For college, Jared studied software engineering or computer science

As for Alana, maybe she studied law or something to become a lawyer maybe?

→ I thought of that just now because I feel like she's very good at debating, and she's very neat and organized in everything she does, loves public speaking, uses logical reasoning all the time... Y'know. Tell me what you think :0

I think that's enough hcs or this will get very long. What do you guys think 🕺🏻

Here's a drawing of them (ft. Evan) me and my gf @devildarling08 made :-) (it's from a boarding school AU we made together)
