The Lost Boys: What is their fighting style? 

Marko 

emotional and violent 

It doesn’t take much to get Marko to fight 

A bump of a shoulder, or a wrong look or word, and you’ve got yourself a psychotic little gremlin on your hands 

He definitely doesn’t fight with any honor, will absolutely stab you in the back if it fits the situation 

Speaking of stabbing

His father taught him how to fight with a dagger when he was a young boy 

He’s most comfortable fighting with a dagger, and keeps one on his person at all times 

If stabbing was an emotion, he would definitely feel “stabby” 

Paul 

Definitely a punching and kicking type of guy 

Doesn’t know any fancy fighting styles like some of the other boys do 

He didn’t do much fighting during his human life, so the vampire learning curve was pretty tough for him 

He got beat up a LOT during the beginning because when you hang around the boys your bound to find trouble 

His go to move is finding something to hit people with 

Like sticks, board walk signs, tire irons, other people…

He does a lot of jumping around too! Like a frog! 

He jumps on peoples back, and from structure to structure 

Think parkour 

Dwayne has been trying for years to get him to actually learn how to fight, but Paul doesn’t really have the attention span for it 

Dwayne 

Doesn’t like weapons 

He likes to look the person (or people) in the eye, and fight relaying on his skill 

He is a strong guy, but brute strength only goes so far 

His fighting style is most similar to Judo for those who are familiar 

For those who aren’t, it’s a lot of throws, ground work, pins, and arms bars, ect. 

Essentially, you can do a LOT of damage with these moves 

I can totally envision Dwayne throwing people around on the board walk, and breaking bones when needed 

His strength helps, but he is a skilled fighter at heart 

He somehow managed to teach Paul a throw once, and he did not make that mistake again

Paul spent months sneaking up on the boys and throwing them when they weren’t paying attention. He got away with it for awhile too before he went to throw Dwayne.

Dwayne caught his arm and broke it 

Paul cried like a child, and never tried it again 

David 

Likes to instigate (as demonstrated in the movie) 

The guy CRAVES a good fight 

So when the board walk has found itself in a peaceful streak, he takes it upon himself to liven things up! 

He prefers to fight in his vampire form, that way he can have a little snack while he’s getting down and dirty 

He likes to use his vampire nails to rip and scratch while fighting 

He doesn’t rely on skill or strength while fighting (even though he is strong)

he does like to hold down his victim’s opponents while they try to squirm away 

At his core, he is a trickster 

Loves beating his opponent in an unfair clever way 

Honor, who is he????

He is not above using his mind tricks on whoever he is fighting 

The way he sees it, is if they were stupid enough to pick a fight with his boys, then they were too stupid to survive on the Boardwalk anyways

How Marko got his gloves;

Marko: Gnawing on the arm of Dwayne's jacket

Dwayne: ???

Later, Dwanye approaches Marko when they're in the cave.

Dwayne: Marko, put your hands out.

Marko: *Suspicious* Why?

Dwayne: Just do it.

Marko: *Puts hands out just enough for Dwayne to reach.*

Dwayne: *Puts gloves on Marko that's the same material as his jacket.* Here you little gremlin.

Marko: *Happy munching noises*

So like we owned The Lost Boys dvd when I was a kid and for like ten straight years I literally judged it off of the cover and the title, it was the one with the red background and Michael on the front with Star and The Boys you know this one and it didn’t have the “Sleep all day party all night it’s fun to be a vampire” quote on it so I had no idea it was about vampires I always assumed it was about a biker gang of runaways and it would be like a cheesy drama or action movie you know just a stereotypical badass biker movie for men because that’s what my dad usually watches

Until i turned 13 and my dad was driving me back to my moms house and we had a 2 hour car ride and he gave me his tablet and put on The Lost Boys and was confused with the fact that i never watched it because we had it on DVD and he claims he watched it often even though i don’t ever remember him watching it at all during my childhood I just remembered the DVD cover

So im watching the movie with my made up little plot in my head and like… the moment I found out that it was about fucking vampires of all things I flipped because I genuinely had no idea it was about vampires. I didn’t know it was a horror movie.

David: We should let Michael know what's going on.

The lost boys: *jumps off a bridge and never explain anything*

Marko: no drinking. No gambling. No premarital sex? Paul, they outlawed 90% of your personality!

------------------------------------------------

Paul: what a dumb idea.

Paul: do it.

David: Well, you know I love the boys. 

David: It's just sometimes I want to get on my bike run ‘em all over.

The way I cackled out loud at this

[dulusionalapocaliose]

I desperately need crazy unhinged bossgirl woman and their pathetic man representation. And by that I mean intelligent, ambitious, unhinged, disgustingly educated but hyperfeminine, that knows how to fight magnifically and are mad science smart queens that would do what is needed to get what they want and need, and their husband/boyfriend supporting and following them around like lovesick puppies.
