Shout out to my mother for being my own personal Juno! Thanks for the fic ideas bestie <3

May I ask how did you get your beetlejuice?

Like did you just acumulate headcanons and got him or did you like sit down and tought of things you'd like to add.

Poor guy has like 75 different mental illnesses and counting I love him so much

What a delightful question, thank you!

So it’s sort of a combination of both of those. I thought up the fic idea, then sat down and watched clips of Alex Brightman’s performance (and a few of the others musical BJ actors of course) to try to really get a good handle on the character. I’ve always headcanoned Beetlejuice as autistic because. Look at him. And non-binary because demons probably have a different grasp on gender than us! His mood ring hair color has been charted out since the start, of course. While plotting out the fic in its entirety, including through part 3, I really pondered why he’s Like That. I ended up putting a lot of my personal experiences (coughtraumacough) into him, since I obviously know how to write from the perspective of someone with those experiences, and I really wanted him to feel as real of a (not) person as possible.

I had to figure out demon lore right away, of course, and how that impacted Beetlejuice, because I love LOVE world building/species creation. And I wanted to have there be more to his past, since he’s thousands of years old and probably has a lot of Lore, so I plotted out characters and experiences from his past and made sure to reference them when considering how he reacts and speaks!

The rest really came to me as a wrote, like his horns and legs when I wanted to make sure he was very obviously not human at his core, and to help create a cool thematic through-line of sheep/lambs and wolves and such. Some things were added for jokes, some things were thought up too late to add in, and will probably be added in the post-mortem rewrite!

Thank you again for the question! I also love him so much, and I’m glad you enjoy him!

Wow, a little scarily accurate. Literally just jump-attack/hugged my coworker a minute ago!
