TO THOSE MAKING NATIVE OCS

I see this a lot, no one has actual names, or any reference for names, that are legit Native American, varying among the tribes, for their characters.

Babynames.com and shit like that will give you names made up by white people.

However, I’ve got your solution.

Native-Languages  is a good website to turn to for knowledge on a lot of native things, including native names. If you’re unsure about the names you’ve picked, they even have a list of made up names here!

Please don’t trust names like babynames.com for native names, they’re made up and often quite offensive to the cultures themselves.

ROAD TRIP AU for ur group

just think about it

them arguing over which music to play and in the end they just play the funkiest songs they can find like the playlist of shrek or what does the fox say and slowly everyone of them start singing along to the songs until they’re all screaming their lungs out and performing them dramatically

there’s always this person that’s like “are we there yet” and “can we stop here? i nEED TO PEE” and everyone’s like goddamn it we just had a break ONE HOUR AGO WHY DIDNT YOU PEE “i didnt have to” FUCK YOu okAy fINE 

one of them constantly falls asleep on other peoples shoulders but thats not the worst thing the worst thing is that they’re SNORING SO LOUD what the fuck but nobody says a thing and lets them sleep and when they wake up everybody is like “GOD KEEP UR SNORS TO URSELF” “u couldve woken me up” “nah u looked so peaceful”

EVERYONE falling a sleep on each other, none of them care, there’s not enough space for them all but they just HAVE to do it somehow and some just kind of fall down the floor or just half and their limbs are all tangled in each other but they just dont care its okay its fine they just want to sleep

them arguing over who drives next because nobody wants to drive in the middle of the night and dont want to be the only one awake when everyones peacefully sleeping and they just switch every couple of hours

them stopping in the middle of the night at stores that open 24hrs and look like a huge fucking mess and probably have bad breath cause they just woke up and its 3 am and now we’re here in this store and want to buy snacks and everything is SO BRIGHT and “why the fuck are you sitting in this shopping cart its not right give it to me let me sit in it”

and last but not not least: HOLDING HANDS DURING THE RIDE i dont care who or how many its just super cute
