Long As Hell - Tumblr Posts

thinking about the mutuals as [first name] + [url] like it's their surname

fav andre hcs?

This is going to be a long list. I’m apologizing for that now. The first headcanons are random, but the later ones are more sad and upsetting. They are separated so no one gets jumpscared by sad Andre.

If you want me to elaborate on any of these or make a post dedicated only to one of them, just let me know! I’ll do it.

REGULAR

- Andre’s love languages are acts of service and gift giving. Quality time is next after those, but it’s not one of his main ones.

- Andre falls asleep early. He falls asleep sometime between 10pm-11pm. Whenever Cal tries to make him stay up later, he either sleeps so late the next day or is pissy the entire time.

- Andre CANNOT tolerate spice.

- Andre doesn’t really like smoking. He only smokes every once in a while with Cal. He hates how he feels after.

- Andre full body laughs. He almost keels over when he laughs too hard.

- Andre has to trust people enough to like physical touch. He likes it from Cal and his mom; he’s a bit hesitant with his dad.

- His grey camo shirt is covered in cat hair, just like most of his dark clothes.

- Andre tells dad jokes constantly which makes everyone around him cringe.

- Andre sucks at lying. He won’t look at you or keep a straight face if he tries to.

- He fiddles with his watch all the time.

- Andre’s very book smart but has absolutely no street smarts.

- Andre is very bad with social cues.

- Andre bites his nails constantly. His fingertips are constantly red and sore, but he can’t stop himself.

- Andre wears chapstick. He will never use flavored ones, though. It makes him feel sickly and the texture is terrible.

- Andre loves being alone. Even when he’s with Cal, he makes sure he’s able to get at least 30 minutes to an hour of quiet time.

- Andre’s road rage is horrible. He is not afraid to use his horn and yell at people when he’s stuck next to them at red lights.

- If Andre is dared to do something, he WILL do it. He won’t back down from it or ask for a different dare.

- When Andre gets really tired, he has a slight German accent that slips out.

SAD

- Andre wanted to live after Zero Day because he’s always been told what a great life he could have. He has always gotten good grades, been involved in school, and got into college. Even if the police shot him, he was fighting for that future.

- He has pictures of Mel and Cal in his car’s console. When they leave the car to walk into the school for Zero Day, he puts them in his pocket.

- Andre loves spending time with Cal’s younger siblings because it fills the hole left by his older brother. Him and his brother were never close so being able to make sure no one else goes through that makes him happy.

- Andre would protect anyone he loves. If someone he’s close to gets in trouble, he gets angry and aggressive to get the attention off of his loved ones.

- Andre cleans his messes up around Cal’s house constantly. Not just things like throwing away wrappers after him or making the bed, but things like washing sheets and the dishes. He feels like he takes up too much space and needs to make up for it.

- Andre always has random facts and thoughts on the tip of his tongue, but rarely anyone wants to listen.

- Andre doesn’t know how to say no, especially to Cal. This gets him into trouble so many times and ultimately ends his life.

- The more Cal mentioned ending it instead of running away during Zero Day, Andre would practice it. He would take an empty gun and place the tip on his throat or chin, finding out the best angle so he wouldn’t have to struggle when the moment came.

cal comes home from prom. well, he comes to andre’s house. it’s closer to a home than the building that he genuinely lives in.

he’s standing in andre’s room, having returned from telling everyone in the limo that he’s staying with andre. rachel’s face, flat and disappointed, flashes through his mind. he understands. she wanted this to be the night for him, for him to come out of his shell and realize how fun everyone really is, but he’s returned to andre. just like he always will.

andre walks up to cal and grabs at his bow tie. startled from his thoughts, cal is now very aware of what’s going on, of andre’s hands so close to his throat. he wonders if andre can feel his heartbeat and how it runs faster with every step andre takes.

“your tie is all fucked up.” andre let’s out a small laugh. “fun night, huh? any girls throw themselves at you? couldn’t resist your pretty face?”

cal’s breath hitches in his throat. andre just called him pretty. it isn’t the first time he’s said it, but every time it still catches cal off guard. his eyes travel from andre’s hands to his face to his shoulders, bare and wet from the shower he had gotten out of moments before cal’s arrival. his gaze stops when he gets to andre’s hips where his boxers rest.

“not really, no. not what i’m looking for.”

andre scoffs, stepping away from cal to look in his closet for a shirt. cal walks over to andre’s bed, slips out of his jacket, and unbuttons his shirt. as he flops down onto the soft mattress, there’s only one thought in his mind: andre.
