some steel trap headcanons of varying levels of thought, because me and @roxie-roo are ever so normal about this dumb movie. so normal, in fact, that we made a whole au (party crashers) where robert and melanie live.
also all the last names mentioned in here apart from kathy's aren't canon, the movie doesn't give the others any.
robert hollister
aka the character with the most final guy energy in this entire movie i said what i said
bisexual king
has a younger adoptive sister named blake, @tseliius' oc. they are the siblings ever i love them
was definitely the guy that got paid to write essays for people in high school/college
loves rock music, stuff like american pearl, breaking point, finger eleven, etc.
has a black cat named loki
always has Cold Hands. nobody knows why, including him, they're just like that
dictionary brain. will use big words / legal terms in sentences sometimes for no reason
doesn't want kids with nicole bc he has issues with his dad and doesn't want to risk passing that stuff to them
roxie and i have a crossover ship with him and dani ardor from midsommar. they're so hades and persephone coded (but like. in a good way)
color association: black or dark green
melanie reed
opposite of nicole's "screaming woman" trope. if she's scared she will just Hard Dissociate
platonic besties with robert. he nicknames her mel, she calls him robbie
adhd queen
stims by humming, swaying, and/or pulling and twirling her curls. if she's really stressed sometimes she'll end up pulling her own hair out
weapon she'd take from the box is a pair of scissors (insert until dawn reference)
has scars on her neck from the elevator cables
bubblegum bitch by marina coded
rip girl you would have loved slime. especially the clay texture ones
would wear those little ceramic star bracelets
develops hemophobia after the experience with the bucket
terrified of spiders. robert isn't. hilarity ensues
loves the princess diaries movies
adopts a puppy at some point
also gets a gf :)
color association: pink
nicole palmer
her and robert are Very bleak december coded i said what i said
there is no way things would've been stable if robert married her
needs glasses but hates wearing them, so she has contacts
color association: dark purple probably?
kathy king (aka kay knight)
read carrie in high school once and got a little... fixated.
besides melanie getting blood dumped on her, adam's death is also a reference to this: he's the "pig" that gets slaughtered for the blood, and his corpse wears a crown like tommy does in some adaptations of the prom night
and if i could / i'd bring them all down to their knees / i'd make them sorry forever for teasing
kay+carrie parallels. the writers might not have meant it to be That Deep but i see the vision
made the locked room trap because she thinks robert's selfish / egotistical (the sticks and stones exchange, she also outright calls him an egomaniac later i think?) and wanted to see who between him and wade was more selfish than the other
color association: deep reds for, you know, reasons
