Also I’ve noticed people tend to draw Drew in one of two ways:

Option 1- Your average depressed emo teen.

Option 2- TWINK.

(Both are correct)

(Anyways should I digitalize this?)

Day 12! Favorite Crack Ship!

Druffering HANDS DOWN EASILY THE BEST SHIP IN THE SHOW. Drew is just a creature of suffering. A magnet to pain if you will.

This is beautiful I’m so happy to see more lettuce posting😭😭😭

A message to Lettuce Lover from Henry Theory Anon

I apologize I do also love lettuce HOWEVER. That is not what I stated in the theory. Lettuce is not a bit, but LETTUCE JUICE is a bit. Have you tried to juice a Lettuce? How many letti (comedic plural for lettuce) would you need to make one lettuce juice? I think personally the fact that Henry states he likes lettuce once, was low-key made fun of, and then shows up with an ACTUAL JUICE BOX OF LETTUCE feels like indication that it's a bit... idk. Just my thoughts.

Because for me the appeal of lettuce is the crunch, not the taste because lettuce tastes like almost nothing. Henry even states the crunch was what made his mouth drool in the show, meaning the crunch was his favourite part. But since people latched onto the "lettuce" part and not the "lettuce cruncyy and I humgry" part, he made "lettuce juice" instead.

Thank you for reading my theory though! I apologize for the confusion!

Okay this’ll be the last 🥬-related message I’ll answer (I don’t want my blog overrun with 🥬 post lol) but this is a fair point. But I feel like that would further point towards Henry being self-aware of his role as a comedic device since he’s AWARE of what the fans think of him as. Which is crazy lol.

Day 11! Something I like/dislike about the Music Club!

If I’m being honest, I don’t have too much to say about these guys. I quite like them, they’re very silly.

I think my favorite thing about them is honestly just seeing them all grow to accept Jake over time, each with their own little episode and whatnot. It’s pretty heartwarming, and I love me a redemption story that takes place over several episodes instead of just one. (Lookin’ at Zuko here.)

And honestly, I like all their characters a lot! (Except Hailey.) They’re all just funny little guys!

I think what I dislike though is that they don’t really stick out of me much as a group. I don’t really know how to explain it, but when they’re all together it just feels… boring? I like them more individually. Or when they’re in pairs. But when it’s all six of them, it’s just… not really that interesting. Like, they’re cute together, don’t get me wrong, but there’s nothing really about them that really keeps me invested in them. Like I won’t really be rotating them in my brain for hours on end like I do with the Jomies.

@31days-of-freakblr

Dear insane henry theory anon,

I love you. So much. (Scene horned up milf lovers unite/silly) However, I must point out one flaw in your argument. LETTUCE IS NOT A GAG 😤. Lettuce is the best food ever (/srs) and I will not tolerate that becoming a joke, henry is the only lettuce lovers representation we get on anything nowadays and you shall not take that away from me 😀

-Sincerely, Lettuce lover anon.

Lmao yeah lettuce is pretty fire🥬

insane henry theory anon is back yeah about Liam i never really like had that much theory energy put into him but seriously it fits too. Like, ALSO FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE (i kin all the dromies.) like sometimes you literally get bullied into making yourself as sexual as possible to fit in with every one else (and in the end, i got slutshamed despite only hopping on the bandwagon for one year...?). Like, how could a scene kid go from friendly (see : jake flashback to freshman year) to like a horned up milf lover? I mean I'm not saying scene kids cant be horned up milf lovers i mean im scene i love milfs too but what im saying is he went from "Hi! I'm Liam, and this is Henry! He likes anime dating games >:3" to "𝓘 𝓰𝓾𝓮𝓼𝓼 𝓼𝓱𝓮'𝓼 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓴𝓲𝓷𝓭 𝓽𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓬𝓪𝓷'𝓽 𝓫𝓮 𝓽𝓪𝓶𝓮𝓭…". He literally went from regular kid to stereotypical fuck boy. He even got a YEE YEE ASS HAIRCUT anyway ya thats it

Damn bro, Henry and Liam being amalgamations of what they were bullied for goes fucking crazy. But that’s so sad tho😭

Love taking characters with little to no hints of angsts and shoving a bunch of it in their face lol.

Sorry for the extremely long Henry ask I know you're a drew blog 😭

Don’t be! Henry is just as welcome as the rest of the Music Freakies I love me a silly lettuce goob. Ty for the theory twas fun to read lol.

I am NOT the you are to drew like Henry is to me anon I am a completely different person however. I'd like to share a little something about Henry.

I had a friend on discord once and we talked about Henry quite a lot, and we made what is what I think my FAVOURITE Henry theory of all time.

Okay, think about it: what's the ONE tmf character that has a design trait that literally HIDES or CHANGES their real appearance to the audience? That's right; HENRY. Henry's real EYES are never seen (except for the glow up video which I'm really not counting because that's like... a silly little thing BUT ANYWAY) in the show. And we all know eyes are the window to the soul. What I'm getting at here is that I don't think that Henry is genuine, not in a malicious way, but in some sort of... like, joke... way?? Gosh I can't explain it but here look.

Think about it. Why the hell would Henry spit gum into Zoeys hair? ZOEY, aka Drew's girlfriend, aka THAT ZOEY? For the comedic value. Because its funny.

Why does he like lettuce juice? Really think about it. Really. What. Does lettuce juice. Taste like. Just fucking water. Maybe terrible water but you can't juice a fucking lettuce. This is a gag, yes, but the only closer similar gag is maybe Zander drinking grape juice I guess... but that's not similar. Grapes can be juiced. Where would you even GET a lettuce juice box? That's right, NOWHERE. Henry must've crafted those boxes, or at least stuck a sticker onto a green juice box, for a bit. Wouldn't that be insane ass effort to put into a bit? Hell, the juice is green. If you juice a lettuce it wouldn't be green. It's not a lettuce smoothie, it's a "lettuce juice". Meaning that Henry either getting green juice or dying water himself isn't out of the picture.

Why is he always goofing around? Sure, you can say thats just his silly goofy aura, but just THINK. He is DESIGNED with silly goofy in mind. His literal physical appearance is silly. HE LITERALLY HAS MEME EYES. HE'S THE ONLY ONE WITH MEME. EYES.

I know this is just an archetype. I know he's just a character.

But just. Think.

He isnt just "a comedic relief character", he IS the comedic relief character. In their show. That's the role he put on himself. The role he's putting effort to play no matter the consequence.

But why would that be? I mean, look at Liam! He's silly and goofy too, why am I doing this whole ass essay?

I bring another point into discussion; the fact that he's a WEEB.

A DORK.

A GEEK.

Now, I may be projecting just a smidge here, but that just means I have personal experiences of that happening.

We all know Drewy Bear loves to adopt absolute fucking losers and up their status, as shown with Jake. And, come on, think about it, Henry is like THE most bulliable character in the show, no offense. So, what I'm proposing,

Is that Henry must've gotten bullied before too. It would make total sense! He's a weeb, excitable, probably says "nani!?" Unironically, etc. And you know, sometimes when you're picked on... you really start to internalise that shit. Sometimes the attention you get from people laughing at you feels good. Terrible, hurtful, and devastating... but good. Because they find you funny.

And you then put ALL your effort into being funny. That's the only thing you're gonna be, after all, you're hillarious. Oh, you can only eat X food? What are you, a rabbit? Hahaha, turn that into a funny bit! Etc, etc etc.

We don't know how long this went on or how long Henry was a Dromie, but one things for sure (in my theory): all of this slowly made him less and less of a person, and more and more of just a joke.

And no, the lettuce thing isn't a reach. I've had this genuinely happen to me personally; people kept on making fun of me because I had to soften my food because of my chronic fatigue, so i turned it into a bit. I'm not ruling this out for Henry.

....

But hey that's just a theory A FREAK THEORY thanks for watching aaaaand send ask

That is a WILD theory but I TOTALLY see what you’re getting at!! That makes so much sense! And it takes his silly role as comic relief and spins it around to be hella depressing. (Turning yourself into the joke just to make people laugh is way too real-😭)

Almost makes me wonder too what if ALL the Jomies were bullied prior to meeting Drew? I mean Liam’s not exactly the definition of cool either. That’d be really interesting to see.

Day 9! Something I like/dislike about the Jomies!

I LOVE the JOMIES!!!

Genuinely I cannot express how much I adore these four! They’re my little scrimblos, my goobers, my sillies, my stinkers even!! (I’m so fucking cringe.)

I think my favorite thing about them is how well they all work as a friend-group. Because I feel like you wouldn’t really expect these four to be friends at all.

I mean, you got a charming little heart-throb, (Jake) the classic mean, grumpy rich kid, (Drew) some milf-obsessed dude, (Liam) and a very excitable weaboo, (Henry).

It’s a pretty random range of characters, yet they all play off each-other so well. They all have fun little dynamics with one another, yet they’re all separate characters perfectly able to stand on their own. I mean, it’d be pretty easy to just make Liam and Henry nothing more than Drew’s lackeys, but they’re not. They have depth to them. They have their own little personalities and quirks and they just so happen to go along with Drew.

And because of their dynamics with one another, it’s so much fun writing about them and imagining different scenarios involving either some of them, or all four of them. They’re just so awesome. They’re such a fun little group.

(And the mental image of Drew watching Liam, Henry and Jake be absolute crack-heads while wondering who’s medical bill he’ll have to pay next will never not be funny to me. I love this dynamic so much.)

I genuinely need to do an in-depth analysis about the dynamics between these four, but for now, I should probably move on to something I dislike.

If I’m being honest, I had to think about this for a while. Because, I mean, there’s not much I particularly dislike about them. I considered saying something about how them being bullies, but in all honesty, I don’t actually hate that about them.

I mean, that’s their job. They’re the antagonists of this show for a reason. They’re supposed to be mean and cause conflict. And if they didn’t, well, we’d have no show. (And that’d be lame.)

This isn’t to say I support their actions at all. (In fact I was seething at them in the Comic Episode.) I’m just trying to say that I can’t really bring myself to dislike them when they’re only fulfilling the role they were created for. (And they’re also characters outside of that role and those characters I really like.)

I think the real thing I dislike about them is ACTUALLY THE FACT THAT THERE ISN’T A TMF SPIN-OFF THAT FOLLOWS THE JOMIES DURING SUMMER VACATION PRIOR TO THE SHOW.

GIVE ME JOMIES BEACH EPISODE GIVE ME EPISODE WHERE THEY GO TO THE BEACH AND PLAY VOLLEYBALL AND DREW INSISTS ON BEING ON A TEAM WITH JAKE ONLY TO LOSE AND GO AND SULK UNDER THE UMBRELLA. GIVE ME HENRY TRIPPING IN THE SAND AND FREAKING OUT ABOUT CRABS. GIVE ME HENRY AND LIAM BUILDING SAND CASTLES WHILE JAKE’S OUT IN THE WATER AND KEEPS GLANCING BACK AT DREW WHO’S STILL ALL UPSET. GIVE ME JAKE DRAGGING DREW INTO THE WATER AND SPLASHING HIM AND THEY START SPLASHING AROUND TOGETHER AND HENRY AND LIAM JOIN AND-

Anyways I think my only real complaint is that they all lied to Drew. Makes me sad.

@31days-of-freakblr

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to all the people that’ve been sending me asks recently. Idk it means a lot to me and I honestly love reading through them. Makes me happy seeing other people’s thoughts and stuff.

Okay bye now :3

I'm the "you are to Drew as I am to Henry" anon and what I meant was that you talk about Drew the same way I talk about Henry (except in generally more aggressive with it if that makes sense) lol sorry if I accidentally weirded you out too much 😭

Oh you’re fine lol. I wasn’t weirded out at all, I just wasn’t 100% sure what you meant and I didn’t want to assume and just write a response that was completely unrelated lol. My bad on that one. (I’m a tad bit slow.)

But anyways glad to know I’m not the only person who rotates their blorbo in their mind 24/7 lol. Sometimes I feel like I’m that one image of the guy with the red string connecting all the dots and whatnot. Like I rewatch the same Drew scene 20 times and be like “because Drew’s eyes drifted slightly downwards for 0.00005 seconds it ACTUALLY MEANS insert wildly uncanon headcanon-”

But I gotta admit I’ve been getting a lot more interested in Henry recently, too! He’s an awesome character, and I can see quite a bit of angst potential too lmao. Love to hear some of your Henry thoughts if you’re comfortable sharing!

I think this needs to be seen by everyone in this fandom. This literally cures depression.

Thanks to @rosypenguins i now agree with the headcanon that Drew meows back at cats & is overall a cat person. Sooooo….

drops this on your foot and runs away

————

“You guys are doing what?”

“We’re gonna go check out this new e-sports club they’re starting up, wanna come with us?”

“No, i’m not as much of a dweeb as you two.”

“Alrighty then, suit yourself” Liam shrugs.

He and Henry were gossiping about this so-called “esports club” they had just seen posters for. They’re incels anyways, so they’d fit right in. “Maybe i should just start heading home, they’d probably assume i did that regardless of where i went.” As the duo walked the opposite direction, Drew walked out the double doors leading down the usual route they took home. With a cold wind walking alongside the boy, he put his earbuds in and cranked up his music. There was no need to take in the sounds of the depraved middle-aged women of the forsaken parent pick-up or freshmen delinquents yelling about some “brainrot terminology” he’d been hearing of recently.

Shortly after the second right he usually took to get home, he noticed some bushes rustling in front of a house. He saw glimpses of grey between the leaves. Slightly intrigued, he walked over towards the area and a curious fellow peeked from around the bush. A small, grey tabby cat with soft green eyes was staring at the larger man who had cracked a slight smile. Drew squatted down, holding out his hand; “Pspspsps, come here baby” he said in a soft, high-pitched “baby” voice. The cat slowly walked over to him and sniffed his hand, rubbing its side against him shortly after. Drew smiled as he watched the cat open its’ mouth, as if it were meowning while Drew pet its smooth coat. The boy meowed back, seemingly striking up an intriguing conversation with this lovely, vibrating fellow.

As multiple songs passed and multiple meows were exchanged, the cat decided to walk away, seemingly back to its owner. Drew got up and dusted himself off, sighing and turning around to be met with a smug Liam and Henry staring at him, Henry’s phone aimed directly at the magenta haired boy as he felt his face go hot.

“Wh-what the fuck are you two doing here?”

The brown haired spoke first; “We were walking home?? What were YOU doing here?”

“Uh..” He walked back on to the sidewalk, “I was also walking home? Henry, why’s your phone like that??”

The snickering little twerp looked at the boy, “I was recording your little “conversation” you were having.”

Drew’s face went flush, “You did WHAT?? Give me that-!” As he lunged for the phone, Henry started laughing as he played keep-away with Liam. After a minute or so, Drew facepalmed. “Can you please just delete that video?”

The green-haired boy chimed through tears, “Yeah, but it’s already in our group chat!” As his laughter only got louder, Drew whipped out his phone to see a video get sent to the group chat the Jomies were all in. And he saw a familiar face typing…

Jake?! What does this freak have to say?!

Frantically typing pleas to prevent Jake from watching, the message was sent.

“LOL that was the cutest thing ever. Just gonna… yoink that!”

Drew fell to his knees, his face burning as his pride went with it. Liam bent over and patted his shoulder, “Hey man, it’s alright. Seems like your boyyyyfriendddd enjoyed the video.”

“I hate you both…” Drew muttered, as he got up and walked home whilst tugging on his hoodie strings.

What a couple of dweebs.

Day 8! Least Favorite Character! (Warning: I get heated in this.)

Okay, now I know these two are fairly popular in the fandom, and to an extent I understand why. I’m not trying to knock anyone who likes these characters, I honestly just want an excuse to vent about why I personally do not like them.

Quick explanation for Zoey: I think she’s annoying. She’s one of those two-faced popular bitches who talks about everyone behind their backs because she believes she’s better than them. I hated these girls in school. I’m not gonna like them in my silly little Gacha show. She’s also a total brat, and I find a lot of her lines annoying. And on top of it all she’s a gold-digger and she cheated on Drew. (And that’s not nice.)

Okay, now for Lia. Let’s get the easy stuff out of the way: Similar to Zoey, I find her super annoying and I hate how much she flirts with Jake. It’s like her entire character up until Episode 8. Genuinely, nothing about her stands out to me beyond that. She’s just constantly hitting on him, being a bigger simp than Drew of all people, and it’s super annoying. I hate the trope of “Character A keeps flirting with Character B because B will reciprocate eventually” it’s genuinely so annoying and makes me feel slightly uncomfortable. And I’m not too interested in her backstory with Hailey either (beyond the potential Hailia).

But despite all of this, I never really hated-hated her until Episode 10. Where it was revealed that she was the one who leaked the audio of Jake back-talking the club.

Words genuinely cannot express how much I hated this scene, nor can they express how much I hated her in this exact moment. All I can really say is:

JAKE👏SHOULD👏NOT👏HAVE👏FORGIVEN👏HER

Genuinely, it infuriates me so much he did so. She literally got him kicked out of the Music Club; the one group he felt comfortable around and accepted in. She went and completely fucked him over all because she was jealous.

And honestly, I feel like the build-up of her jealousy was a lot worse than Drew’s. Maybe I just need to go back and rewatch the episodes, but I feel like Lia’s jealousy wasn’t as well portrayed I guess?? Like, I don’t know. I just feel like there weren’t enough scenes between her and Jake to actually make me feel bad for her or make her actions more understandable.

And I hated how weak her reasonings behind her actions were. “Oh, you don’t pay attention to me anymore!!” All you do is flirt with him and he’s made it clear he doesn’t reciprocate, what do you expect?!

I don’t care if she owns up to it and apologizes. I still find her actions shitty and I don’t have to forgive her. (Neither SHOULD JAKE-)

Seriously I feel like Jake should’ve taken like at least a little bit of time before forgiving Lia, like… she fucked him over and he’s just like “oh yeah that’s fine sorry I ignored you for making me uncomfortable.”GSGSYHDSJ-

Okay, but despite all this, I gotta admit I love seeing fan-interpretations of these characters. Honestly, makes them a lot more interesting.

(I wonder if this is gonna shock anyone, because I don’t think I’ve ever complained about them on here and I do draw them quite a bit lol.)

@31days-of-freakblr

You are to Drew as I am to Henry

Anon I’m sorry but what does this mean?😭

I get 70% of my drew head-canons from your rants on him, 10/10 rants 🔥🔥

THANK YOU!! Yeah Drew literally never leaves my brain he rotates up there 24/7 I could literally write a whole damn novel about this boy (and I pretty much have lol) I’m glad you like themm

I feel like you'd appreciate my droey dream

Im not going to spill every detail just bc its oddly personal LMAO ( and i want to turn it into a fic ) but its healthy droey with drew having some mental health struggles and zoey being there for him and its very fluffy 🫶🫶 the way zoey's room looked in it was so perfect tho it was so weird. I would imagine her room to be more on the minimalist side with fluffy rugs and white furniture, but in my dream it was kind of tropical beach vibes. And u just KNOW she would wear a lot of clothes with hibiscus patterns.

HEALTHY DROEY HEALTHY DROEY HEALTHY-

Yessss I love healthy Droeyyyy it’s so cute to think about!! I love the idea of them being sweet and caring with each other and Zoey actually recognizing Drew’s problems and helping him through them and letting him lay down on her chest while she plays with his hair and kisses his head sksbskabodndn raaaaa

And I could totally see Zoey having flowers on practically everything she owns. The way you’ve described her room sounds super accurate lol.

Day 6: Favorite Background Character!

🎶Jakey’s mom has got it goin’ onnn🎶

I don’t even know if she counts as a background character, but I don’t care. I want to talk about her.

Honestly, this all started with my Drake fic titled Hamburger. (Blame @ratkingnezu for the name.) She played an EXTREMELY minor role in that story, but God I ended up coming up with so many headcanons for this lady it’s so insane.

I don’t usually get super attached to characters with no dialogue or screen time but Jake’s mom means so much to me I just-

I know she’d be the most caring person ever. I know she’d work her ass off to support her two boys, and I know she’d down lay her life for them without a second thought. I know she’s tired 24/7 but puts on a brave face to support her children. And I know she practically adopted the Jomies and treats them like they were her own children. (She probably doesn’t know about all the bullying though because if she did there’d be an onslaught of slippers being pelted at them.)

And holy shit I just keep finding myself thinking about her and Drew specifically, like how Drew would probably be pretty quiet around her because that’s how he is around his own parents, and how she’s like the only positive parental figure he has since his parents are always gone, and how she genuinely cares about him and how Drew doesn’t know how to handle that and djshwiabakka-

Please this woman needs more appreciation she needs to be in Season 2 and she needs to be very loving and very caring and very sassy or I will cry.

@31days-of-freakblr

hello!! I'm trying to prove my point in this post. https://www.tumblr.com/darlingauroralove/757996180657618944/i-love-posting-random-stuff-and-reblogging-it?source=share

so to prove my point, could you list all of the fandoms you are currently in rn?

Omg I love seeing little experiments like this ofc!

So, I only ever interact with the TMF fandom, but theres a lot of fandoms I still keep up with such as Genshin Impact, Omori, LoZ, TOH, Arcane, Marvel, ATLA, Bluey, Moominvalley, HunterxHunter, Demon Slayer, Komi Cant Communicate, Heartstopper, Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss, TADC, and Lackadaisy.

Day Five of Freakblr Month! Something I like/dislike about Jake!

To start off, something I like: I absolutely adore his struggle between choosing the Music Club, and the Dromies.

Now, I’m gonna start this off saying that I’ve BEEN in Jake’s exact situation of having to choose between friend groups multiple times in my life. (People-pleasing tendencies be damned.) And honestly, this is genuinely, unironically one of the best portrayals of that I’ve found in media. (And it’s a Gacha of all things.)

But seriously, I adore the way his character arc was written, and how he struggles to keep both sides happy. The lying, and the struggle to remain loyal to both sides (which only in turn makes him loyal to no-one) hits so hard as someone who’s been through this.

He constantly shoves his own thoughts and problems to the side. He ignores his own desires in favor of pleasing those around him. And the line where he expresses how he wishes he was someone else, is honestly so real and genuinely hurts to hear.

Like, the scene in episode 7 puts it so damn well. I cannot express it enough. How he feels he almost owes it to Drew and the Dromies to stay by their side, and how he still cares about them despite how much their words and actions hurt those he cares for, and him.

He’s never shown to care about his own feelings, he only cares about making everyone else happy, which is why it feels to rewarding to see him finally figure out and fight for what he wants. And to see him finally reveal the truth, despite knowing how much it’ll hurt his old friends. He no longer lies to please others. He finally learns to tell the truth. The painful, ugly truth, that finally sets him free.

He’s a flawed protagonists, but he’s trying. And seeing him grow throughout the show is genuinely so rewarding, and watching him find a group that finally accepts him for who he is just…

This image is how I feel. Unironically. I love Jake so much.

*+*+*

Now, for something I dislike: I hate; with a burning passion; how Jake handled the fact Zoey was cheating on Drew.

Now before I get into this, I’m just gonna say that I don’t think this is a flaw of Jake’s character. I think this is more a writing flaw, considering Jake is shown to care about Drew in every other instance, except for this one. To recap the situation: Jake found out Zoey was cheating on Drew, and instead of telling Drew, his literal best friend about this, he chooses to keep it secret, using it as blackmail to protect a girl he’d known for two days.

I’m sorry… WHAT?! EXCUSE ME?!?! You’re BEST FRIEND IS BEING CHEATED ON AND ALL YOUR ASS IS CONCERNED WITH IS THIS GIRL WHO YOU MET A DAY AGO??? Like I understand Jake’s a people pleaser, but JAKE THAT’S YOUR BEST FRIEND??? YOUR BEST FRIEND WHO TOOK YOU IN AS A FRESHMAN AND GAVE YOU A PLACE TO BELONG?!?! YOUR BEST FRIEND WHO GENUINELY CARES ABOUT YOU AND WANTS TO PROTECT YOU?!?!!

It genuinely makes no sense, especially considering it IS IMPLIED Jake cares about Drew, yet his actions here scream otherwise.

And I know that Jake’s not the only one in Jake’s friend group who lied. Everyone did. (RIP Drew.) But I feel like their reasons for lying were a little more understandable.

Like, Henry and Liam were clearly being threatened into keeping their mouths shut, and Lia’s Zoey’s best friend. Lia had to keep quiet or risks losing her popularity and reputation, which she got because of Zoey. But Jake isn’t being threatened at all. He’s the one threatening Zoey.

Not only that, but when Jake DOES finally tell Drew, he weaponizes it. He KNOWS that he’s going to hurt Drew by telling him this and THAT’S why he does it. Not because Drew deserves to know, but because he’s using the truth as a weapon. He uses it AS A WEAPON TO ATTACK DREW FOR SOMETHING HE DIDN’T EVEN DO?!?!

It’s genuinely so fucked up and so out of character for Jake to do. Like, I understand he’s upset but this is just downright shallow and petty. And not at all fair to Drew, who has only been trying to help Jake in his own twisted possessive way.

And does he go back and apologize once he finds out Lia’s the one who leaked the recording? NO! Does he express any sort of guilt or remorse? NO!! IT’S SO FUCKING SHITTY!! And also completely illogical, which is why I think this was more of a writing flaw than anything. It was something to give the climax more drama I guess, but there are other ways to do that without taking Jake out of character.

TLDR: I like Jake’s character development. I hate how he covers up Zoey’s cheating only to weaponize it just to hurt Drew.

@31days-of-freakblr

“So… this is what you left me for…”

(Am I really posting Drew angst on Jake’s birthday? Hell yeah, who’s gonna stop me??)

I’m joining Freakblr Month! I might not do all the prompts (because honestly I still don’t really know much about the Freakblr Lore) but I still kinda wanna participate in the character-related prompts soooooo yeah! Day Two! Favorite characters time!

Drew is my obviously my all-time favorite. He’s comfort character, my muse, my entire personality and tbh he became my biggest coping mechanism after a particularly dysfunctional relationship. I absolutely adore his character’s complexity and I found a lot of his actions and feelings to be pretty relatable unfortunately. Seriously this little stinker means so much to me.

Jake’s just a little scrimblo. Just a silly little guy. He’s cute, he makes me smile, and his struggles being a people-pleaser are hella relatable. I like him.

Zander used to be my all-time favorite, up until episode nine, actually. And even though I’m not as crazy about him as I used to be, I still love his character. I actually really like his character development of learning to trust Jake and I love his personality and just like the two mentioned above, he is incredibly relatable.

Luke is just… I love Luke. I don’t care how many people say he’s boring or he’s cardboard. He’s the sweetest character on this show and I don’t care what anyone says, I think his relationship with Zander was adorable. The PDA, the cringey pet-names, the silly teasing and flirting, I ate that shit up. He’s just genuinely such a comforting character, he’s so precious and sweet and kind and he’s a good boyfriend and he’s such a goober and I adore him.

@31days-of-freakblr (Hope it’s alr I joined even though I’m not technically a Freakblr OG)
