Thinking Of Young Andre Who Grew Up In A House That Speaks Almost Purely German And Nothing Else. On

thinking of young andre who grew up in a house that speaks almost purely german and nothing else. on his first day of kindergarten, he walks in to kids talking and laughing with each other. he knows basic phrases and questions, of course, but even then, his voice is laced in a thick accent like his father. laughs follow his every word, and he sits alone at recess. books pile up next to his bed as he begs his parents and brother to read to him in english every night. he feels like he’s so far behind and will never catch up.

eric loves popsicles. during the summer, he almost always has one. when he’s in his or alex’s room, he’s got a popsicle in hand. when he’s sitting in his back yard, he has one. even in the car, he has one. alex has no fucking clue where he gets all of them and how they don’t melt.

their kisses always taste sickly sweet as eric’s mouth is coated in sugar and fake dye. there’s a constant ring around his mouth. sometimes it looks like he’s got some sort of weird lipstick on and other times he just looks ill. he doesn’t mind, though.

cal crushes on people constantly. andre takes months or even longer to get the slightest bit of romantic feelings for someone.

when they were younger, cal would ask him if he liked anyone and would get so upset when andre said no. he thought andre was flat out lying to him. it took forever for him to understand that andre was being genuine. he didn’t like anyone. when he does, though, cal jumps up and down and forces andre to talk to them.

will u perchance be posting more elephant headcanons..

YES!!! i will be! also if anyone wants to send asks about them i'm more than happy to answer them!! it can be about any character, not just alex and eric

iroquois high school is shown to be two or more floors. every time i remember that, i think of andre and cal running up and down the stairs during the shooting. andre’s track star self would be killing it, hustling without problem. cal, on the other hand, would go up a flight of stairs and have to catch his breath for a second. after a while, andre just tells cal to take care of the first floor.
