Repeat after me “revive the black phone fandom before the second part comes out!”

I really hope it’s a prequel or at least something that gives more backstory to the characters, especially the grabber (+ I want more lore of my bbys 🥺🙏🏽)

Bruce head canons because my online persona is.. Well, Bruce Yamada..

‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵

• He calls everyone by their last names.

- Bruce for some reason, refers to everyone by their last name, no matter what.

- He only says Finney's and Vance's first names.

- With this, he knows everyone's last names somehow and no one knows how he did it.

- Though if you call him by his last name, he'll ignore you.

• He holds grudges.

- Sure, Bruce is an extremely nice person and it's hard to upset him, but when someone does. He holds his grudge.

- "Hey what happened with ?????" "They upset me." And he hasn't talked to that person for two months.

- He has grudges against his friend group, but feels too bad to ignore them so he's passive aggressive to them.

• He clueless.

- Omg, he's so clueless. Half the drama in the school, he knows nothing until the last moment of it.

- If a pen is flying towards him, he's not noticing it, or he is and is just not able to do something about it.

- He uses all his attention in baseball, so out of it. He's just not there.

• He hates movies and listening to music.

- Bruce much rather just sit down in the silence and read a good book, or help his sister study or when study himself.

- He keeps himself busy too, so he doesn't have to resort to watching things or listening to music.

• He's always busy or out.

- He makes sure his schedule is filled 24/7.

- Bruce is always outside or if he's inside he's doing things, cleaning, studying, helping his mother, helping Amy, hanging out with his friends. Whatever it is he's doing it.

• When he's in love, he's in love.

- Vance was definitely the first person he had fallen for. So, when he fell. He fell hard.

• He's definitely demi-romantic.

- As the years passed, he watched all his friends get crushes, he didn't understand why but he never did. Then, Vance happened.

• He's a sarcastic bitch.

• He doesn't think about peoples feelings until after he's said something.

- Bruce is nice, he's definitely the nicest person in the school. Though, sometimes he gets a little too sassy and says something without thinking, which leads to hurting someone's feelings.

- "Are you stupid?" Then he realizes what he said. "I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me."

• He pretends not to know Finney when they play against each other.

- He's extremely competitive, so. He'll pretend not to know Finney while playing so he feels less bad for playing so aggressively.

• He rubs off on people.

- Bruce has somehow turned two people into sarcastic sassy bitches. He didn't mean to, and he's not even as sarcastic as them.

Finney: This is bad, this is really bad! Bruce: Dude, what is it? Finney: I kissed Robin Bruce: Whoa Bruce: I owe Vance so much money

☆ currency exchange

Almost every kid in Denver knew that you could bribe Vance to do whatever you wanted, as long as you paid him in quarters. Most people saved up money to pay Vance to beat up other kids, but more often then not some favours were different.

Bruce Yamada has had a crush on Vance since sixth grade, when Vance asked to borrow a pencil. At that time he had only been held back once, and was a year older then Bruce. Vance had grinned at Bruce, and from that moment on Bruce had fallen head over heels for Vance.

The raven-haired boy would hang around the Grab'n'Go, watching Vance secretly play pinball.

The idea to ask Vance out on a date came from another girl who also had a crush on Vance. She brought Vance at least $5 in quarters, and asked him to go on a date with her. Fortunately, Vance said no. He asked her to return with more money next time, at least $15 in quarters if she actually wanted Vance to go on a date with her.

Bruce had saved up for months, doing spare jobs such as mowing the lawn or washing dishes for extra cash. He kept every quarter he owned locked away in a piggy bank underneath his bed. Eventually, it seemed like Bruce had enough quarters to successfully bribe Vance to go on a date with him.

Bruce mentally prepared himself for days, trying to think of the perfect way to ask out his long time crush. On the day Bruce had finally gained enough courage to ask Vance out, he grabbed his sackful of quarters and walked down to the Grab'n'Go. Bruce's heart was beating fast, terrified of what could possibly happen. It was the 70's, and people weren't so forward thinking. What if Vance said no? What if he made fun of me? What if he beat me up? What if... Bruce was interrupted from his thoughts as he reached the door of the Grab'n'Go, taking a deep breath before entering the shop.

Bruce spotted the curly haired blonde immediately, as the loud noises of the pinball machine attracted Bruce's attention. Fortunately the shop was mainly empty, which allowed Bruce to feel a little braver in asking out his long time crush.

Hesitantly, Bruce tapped Vance on the shoulder.

"I have some um... some quarters for you to do something for me. If that's okay?" Bruce stated, fiddling with his hands behind his back.

Vance turned around from his game, and grinned at the idea that Bruce Yamada, Denver's golden boy, was asking him for a favour?

"Sure" Vance muttered, trying to mask his excitement with pretend annoyance.

"I have at least $20 in quarters. Would you go on a date with me?" Bruce blurted out, his face flushing in embarassment.

Vance stood there in shock, his brain trying to process what Bruce just said. Bruce Yamada just asked him, Vance Hopper, on a date?

"Oh. Um, sure." Vance commented, hiding the excitement that he was feeling inside. Vance has had a crush on Bruce since the beginning of sixth grade, from the second Bruce introduced himself to the class. The first time Vance ever actually spoke to Bruce was near the end of sixth grade, when Bruce lent him a pencil in third period.

Bruce grinned, showing off his perfect teeth.

"I'll pick you up on Friday at seven?" He asked Vance, still grinning.

Vance nodded, now blushing a deep shade of red.

Bruce walked out the store happily, a new spring in his step. He was going on a date with Vance Hopper!

i wanna write a fanfic

I have the urge to write a branch fanfic even tho I've never written a fanfic before. Y'all know the song Good Luck,babe by Chappell Roan? Yea imagine that

[cruelyyours]

Summary:

He’s given a room, it’s tiny. He puts his backpack on the bed. The whole thing feels so surreal.

“Let’s get you down to the evening prayer session now. Then it’ll be dinner time.”

He doesn’t fight her on it, he just follows her down multiple halls before leaving the building and walking to a church just a short walk away. There’s cars parked along the way, Finney thinks about jumping in them and speeding away. He thinks about Robin. Missing him. Hoping he was alright. He never saw him after what happened last night, he didn’t have the chance to say goodbye or anything. He hoped Gwen would tell him.

OR:

Finney and Robin get caught making out, Finney is sent to a church camp that will "fix him" and he meets some interesting characters who are far too similar to him for his liking.

✦ synopsis: in which vance is still learning how to be a boyfriend

⟡ content warnings: fluff, swearing, grumpy x sunshine, not proofread

✦ word count: 445

This is stupid. This is really fucking stupid. Hanging out in Bruce Yamada's backyard? He doesn't do that.

Bruce Yamada is stupid. With his stupid brown eyes and his stupid smile and his stupid perfect hair. 

What is he even doing here?

Hanging out with Bruce Yamada. That's what. 

Vance is sitting at the bottom of the back porch steps, watching Bruce set up that stupid perch thing that he puts his baseballs on to bat. 

Everything is kind of weird. He was kind of nice to the idiot once because his stupid goddamn smile makes him kind of warm inside and Bruce took a liking to him for whatever fucked up reason and they got to talking now he has a boyfriend.

What the fuck?

Bruce tosses a baseball back and forth in his hands. "You're always so grouchy," he teases.

Vance grunts. "What, 'cause you're always such a ray of fucking sunshine?"

Well . . . yeah. He kind of is. 

Bruce just laughs and sets the ball atop that perch thing and Vance doesn't know how someone so soft can like him.

"I've been told I am," Bruce says.

"You're my type." He almost blushes at that. Almost. Bruce picks his bat off the ground and adjusts his grip on it. He gives him a glance over his shoulder. "What's your type, anyway?" He adjusts his stance, winding the bat back a few times to get a feel for it. 

Vance rolls his eyes. "Fuck if I know. Whatever you are, I guess."

Bruce hits the ball, watching it soar across his yard, and laughs. It knocks against the grass by the far back gate as he turns to Vance, dragging his bat behind him. "You sure know how to flatter a guy." He drops his bad and squats in front of him, tilting his head. "You could at least act like you like me."

Vance fiddles his thumbs in his lap. This whole boyfriend thing is very new. "I do like you," he grumbles. 

Bruce moves a little closer, smiling softly. He stretches a hand out to touch his face. "You're so grumpy."

Vance slaps his hand away. "Stop it."

Bruce chuckles and cranes his neck forward to kiss him. 

He actually blushes this time, feels his face get all hot as his hands go limp in his lap. 

The kiss ends almost as quickly as it starts, punctuated by a quick little peck before Bruce away and stands back up, setting another baseball out of his pocket on that perch thing. "You're all red," he teases,

Vance crosses his arms, moping. "Oh, fuck off."

But he feels kind of warm on the inside.

>> Fluff!!

AN!! I'm getting back into TBP fandom guys!! Trying, I'm moving in two days so I'll do as much as I can because I miss this fandom and writing in it <3

Being dead wasn't exactly the most fun, especially being stuck with four idiots; Well, a child, a paperboy, some kid, and Bruce. Bruce was the best part, at least in Vance's opinion.

The endless nights of talking with the baseball player, it made him feel warm and fuzzy inside. Even if he was technically cold and leaden inside.

"Well would you even know good music?" Vance pressed with a weak punch to the other's arm, "No actually. I wouldn't, I don't have time to listen to music," Bruce huffed, folding his arms over his chest.

"We have nothing but time B," He poked his arm gently, although his finger pulled away from his arm; his eyes lingered on the skin, "Hey paperboy," He yelled out across the room.

"What."

"Got a pen?"

"Sure," The way his demeanor changed so quickly concerned the others but what were they supposed to do? Make the newsboy talk about his feelings? Absolutely not, Robin wasn't one to talk about his feelings, Griffin was a kid who barely understood his own and Bruce was always occupied with Vance.

A pen went flying towards the blonde and he caught it, definitely!! (He didn't catch it,)

"Gimme your arm," Vance asked as he pulled the cap off and spat it out, Bruce looked at him with a bit of worry but he pushed his limb onto Vance's lap.

Vance steadied his arm and started to draw around his lashes and scars, Bruce stared. His face lighting up like a tomato.

Vance didn't do much, he made a few stars around them, "There now it's not all boring," Bruce cocked his brow, "Oh, were my scars too boring for you?" Vance immediately nodded, "Yes,"

Bruce groaned and snatched the pen from him and then Vance's arm, "Oh are mine too boring now?" Bruce looked up at him, "Yes,"

Vance watched as Bruce started to draw on his skin.

"That's fine with me."

[deadbydad]

Bruce: Hoeny, babe, baby Vance: Yeah? Bruce: I love you, but shut the fuck up

[starlightshadowsworld]

Meanwhile, Robin and Finney are together and are conspiring with Billy and Griffin to get these two idiots together.

For all of their sakes.

After bruce comes out as bi to vance, Vance asks what his type is and bruce says "bad boy, tough, long hair, wears tank tops, and stands up for himself." and Vance being oblivious thinks hes talking about robin so Bruce asks vance what his type is and Vance says "pretty boy, baseball, shockingly strong" and bruce is also oblivous so he thinks vance likes finney.

so now they both think the other likes someone else and are now jealous because they wont talk about their feelings.

[bia23]

Finney: Llegue a un punto en que ni siquiera estoy sorprendido por esto.

Bruce: *a su lado asintiendo mientas suspira con cansancio*.

Finney/Bruce: *Ven a Vance y Robin magullados con los nudillos rotos y sangre en sus ropas*.

Robin/Vance:* Cabizbajos tratando de evitar las miradas desopobrativas de sus respectivos novios*.

Bruce: Sé que me arrepentire por preguntar pero ¿porque?

Vance/Robin: *hablando al mismo tiempo*

Vance: ¡Ese idiota dijo que eras patético para el béisbol!

Robin: ¡Estaban burlándose de tu ultimo cohete a escala Finn!

Robin/Vance: ¡Estaba defendiendo tu honor Bruce/Finn!

____________________________________

Finney: I've gotten to a point where I'm not even surprised by this.

Bruce: *at his side nodding while he sighs tiredly*.

Finney/Bruce: *They see Vance and Robin bruised with broken knuckles and blood on their clothes*.

Robin/Vance:* Head down trying to avoid the dismal looks of their respective boyfriends*.

Bruce: I know I'll regret asking but why?

Vance/Robin: *speaking at the same time*

Vance: That idiot said you were pathetic for baseball!

Robin: They were making fun of your latest Finn-scale rocket!

Robin/Vance: I was defending your honor Bruce/Finn!

☆ will I ever see you again?

Bruce was riding his bike home from his baseball match, which his lost 7:14. Bruce knew he had been distracted from his game recently, since his boyfriend went missing around a week ago. Vance was supposed to meet Bruce in the park after school, but never showed up for their date.

As the Grab 'n' Go came into view, Bruce slowed down to a halt and left his bike outside the store.

The raven-haired boy walked inside, trying to ignore the pinball machine that his boyfriend was glued to 24/7. Bruce takes a quick look at the high score, smiling softly as he sees that Vance's high score is still the top.

He walks to the cold drinks isle, picking out a diet coke and paying for it at the counter. Bruce unscrews the lid, taking a sip. The fizzy metallic taste fills his mouth, and Bruce gulps the soda down eagerly. He was parched, since he forgot to bring water to his baseball game. Vance always used to bring Bruce a cup of water, since he knew Bruce always forgot to.

Bruce finished off the can, dumping it in the trash can outside the store entrance. Plastered on the windows of the Grab 'n' Go, was a bunch of 'missing' posters of kids who had gone missing recently. The first poster Bruce saw was Griffin Stagg's, a kid in the 6th grade who went missing over six months ago. The second poster Bruce saw was Billy Showalter's, who was in the 9th grade. Billy delivered papers to the Yamada household daily, until his disappearance four months ago. The last poster, the newest one on the window, was Vance Hopper's. Bruce stared at the picture of Vance on the poster, and read the information below. Vance Hopper, 173 cm, age 15, last seen 16th July.

Bruce felt his heart tearing in two. He had tried to ignore the fact that Vance was missing, but this poster just proved the fact that Vance was missing. Like the other two boys, he might never come back. Bruce might never see Vance in his math class again. He might never see Vance playing pinball inside the very same store that his missing poster was hung up on. He might never meet Vance in the park after school again. He might never see Vance again.

Bruce breathed in sharply, jumping on his bike and cycling away as fast as he could, blinking away the tears in his dark brown eyes. He sped through the neighborhood, enjoying the wind rushing through his hair. After half an hour spent riding around his whole neighbourhood, Bruce eventually slowed down and parked his bike in his garage.

Bruce unlocked the front door, slamming it behind him and locking the door. He walked up to his room, gently shutting his bedroom door and sinking down onto the floor, allowing a few tears to escape.

Bruce wiped his eyes, trying to control his shaky breaths. I will see Vance again, right? Maybe it was a mistake. Maybe Vance just left Denver for a while? Vance was okay. Vance was going to be okay. Bruce reassures himself, his breathing slowing down to a normal rate.

Vance was going to be okay, right?
