Headcanons on the Northwest Club (a collective of comics).
•He is much more tolerant, responsible (from his collective, he is clearly the most responsible) and less harsh than Bill. But this does not mean that he has stopped being a punk. No, he is just less irritable than Bill, but still arrogant and hypocritical, but the last characteristic deserves a separate point. Let's just say that the negative traits of this character are mostly mitigated by his addictions. So his irritation is muted by alcohol, of course he can be loud, but it's forced.
• and now about hypocrisy. I think it's fifty-fifty here, he deserves both disgust and sympathy at the same time. As with mainstream comics, there's nothing wrong with having your own interests, but that's not the problem. The problem is that he's the loudest critic of everything popular, insulting those who enjoy it, and it's disgusting. Therefore, he deserves to be condemned. If there was no humiliation on his part, then there would be less claims.
• it's still difficult for him to meet girls, but it's becoming more natural for him. He will fiercely reject anyone who shows him any attention, and he will unleash a tirade about how "most people are stupid because they embrace stupid mainstream art. However, underground art makes people smarter." (The underground craves promotion and fame. It's a paradox). of course, his attacks on girls will still be strange and repulsive, but if a girl accepts his comic, he will literally depend on her opinion about his work, hinting (or outright begging) for praise.
• His love language is also a quality language outside of communication. Well, he literally has nothing to offer other than that. He also has a disgusting relationship with his parents, he has no pocket money, besides, he adheres to the principle that he "does not succumb to the pressure of capitalism." And so he will spend all his time with his partner. Club meetings too. I don't think he will allow his partner to participate, but he will allow you to watch and admire how deftly and skillfully he works. In his opinion, a good transfer time is the one he chooses.
• Of course, you could say that he has narcissistic traits, but they are muted. He cannot recognize them in himself because his environment is the same. Yes, the guys from the club also have narcissistic traits. Their desire to stand out, their belittlement of mainstream culture, and their elevation of themselves and the underground are not the most pronounced signs of narcissistic traits, but they are still present.
•oh the big guy really looks epic. Unlike Josh, he is less neat and delicate to the objects of his hobby. Also, his appearance is more bright than Josh, but he has his own reason. If Josh expresses his inferiority and low self-esteem in his snobbishness, but this big guy has another way to express himself. It is expressed in his behavior, in his aggression... although he still remained a snob.
• Like Josh, he probably has an eating disorder, and he also eats too much fast food, but unlike Josh, he is also prone to alcoholism. His favorite drink is probably beer, although he doesn't shy away from stronger beverages. He tends to get drunk to the point where he lies in his own vomit, somewhere in the back alleys of the city, while his mohawk takes on a suspicious color after a night of drinking. This happens about once every two months, but it's an unforgettable sight.
• However, when he gets drunk, he gets loud (as usual) but terribly tactile. He instantly forgets that people have personal boundaries (he didn't respect them in any case), he can give both pats and hugs. So probably if you go to a bar with him, then a person has the opportunity not to leave there until Jay gets away from his drinking buddy.
• He's pretty private actually. It's not that he doesn't feel lonely, but he's probably used to it. There are a lot of things he would like to discuss. He would like to tell someone, and he would like to be listened to, but he doesn't have anyone like that. It seems that he doesn't even trust the guys in the band. If he had a partner, he would probably confess to them every two weeks (or more often, he would talk nonstop about his feelings and thoughts). Alcohol also affects him. Just one can of beer is enough to make him talk.
• His language of love is touch. He's quite tactile when he's relaxed and gets used to a person, so invite him to have a drink a few times. After that, he'll hug you when he sees you. He's actually quite good at hugging, and he's physically pleasant. But don't forget that he's a punk. He's also an artist. Sometimes he neglects his hygiene and may not change his clothes or bathe for weeks, so don't be surprised if you find ink or grease stains on your clothes.
• Oh, if people are to imagine a creative nature, this is it. An artist who actually draws when he feels inspired. And because of this, he has inconsistency in his works, many of his ideas are really good, but they remain in their beginnings, because "inspiration left" and all that. Also, he has more and more often than others, a jumping skill in drawing. He probably also lacks theoretical knowledge, like anatomy and perspective. Although it seems that only he and James have ever taken art classes.
• He probably has trouble learning anything because he can't follow through with his ideas. He gets motivated, but just as quickly loses it. He doesn't develop discipline. Additionally, he feels constant pressure from other students and teachers, as he puts it. However, it's not accurate to say that he's completely unteachable. He benefits greatly from speed-learning and tutorials.
• And due to his sensitive and creative nature, he is more prone to using various substances than others. In fact, he already has a slight tolerance for such substances, so he experiments with them. For "inspiration" and work, he uses something lighter, while for relaxation, he prefers something stronger. Naturally, this has led to health issues. His mental state and coordination are particularly affected. He becomes more fidgety, his hands start to tremble more often, but he doesn't notice it.
• his language of love is gifts. Most likely his partner will become a muse for him so it is safe to say that he will have to create a folder to collect all the works that Rodney will give to his partner. This will be both very successful drawings and sketches, portraits in different angles, sketches in different poses, in general everything that he will produce. In addition, he likes to give gifts to his partner of various kinds. From a pen or a can of beer to something more global, like rather expensive clothes or jewelry.(Although he also doesn't like mainstream culture, he doesn't mind spoiling his partner)
• He's probably the most childish member of the group. He often becomes impulsive and illogical, which can lead to unnecessary spending. I think that, unlike the Eltingville Club, these guys actually work or at least have part-time jobs, rather than relying on their parents (yes, I'm looking at you, Bill). Rodney is also quite restless at work. He probably works part-time as a loader or cashier, so it doesn't affect his work much.but still it is noticeable in communication.
• this guy is cool and he knows it. If Jerry's low self-esteem and social adaptability manifest themselves in modesty and even shyness, James, on the other hand, artificially inflates his self-esteem and appears confident. However, if you dig a little deeper, you'll find an insecure and sensitive individual who tends to lash out whenever someone points it out.
• Despite his low self-esteem and outward calmness, James is a self-proclaimed genius. Of the whole team, he's the easiest to learn from, and he literally picks up on everything, so he often experiments with drawing materials. He's also quite talented in drawing, and he tries to develop himself, even if it's independently like Rodney, but he consumes a lot of drawing content.
• As I mentioned earlier, he used to take art classes, but he didn't stay there for long. He probably had excuses like "I've outgrown it," "I'm not learning anything new," and so on, but the truth is, he just got bored.he likes to experiment with creativity, constantly trying new things, and even if he starts to train hard with one material or one technique, he enjoys it, and art school requires perseverance and obedience to teachers.
• he doesn't have any particular problems with alcohol or other substances (as he says). He may justify his actions by seeking inspiration, but he actually enjoys waking up on a park bench, having lost all his drawings.He really likes it, but he probably doesn't have enough money to do it all the time. Most of his money goes towards new materials and food. So he doesn't have enough money to do it.
• His love language is words of encouragement. His partner will truly know that he is beautiful, charming, and needed. He is generous with compliments and willing to acknowledge that others can also be wonderful. However, he also expects to receive compliments and attention in return. He needs validation and a sense of being needed, and his partner will receive much more support from him in the future.
