ghouls night out headcanons🪩
you asked (no you didn’t) so i responded (sorry) - here’re my half-baked headcanons for our favourite demon musicians/ethereal hell creatures on a mad one
this is heavily influenced by clubbing in the uk because a) i am british (sorry) and b) i love clubbing so pls lmk if this is incomprehensible
i’ve said this before but i’ll say it again: swiss is ABSOLUTELY the one who brings questionable sunglasses to the club and forces everyone in the group to wear them at some point or another. this ghoul LIVES for the cheesy music room in the club (swiss cheese joke ding ding ding) because he somehow knows every lyric, but you just know he’ll throw it back for absolutely anything with a beat. 11/10 icon who’s somehow incredibly photogenic in star-shaped sunglasses
we know aether has BDE (big dad energy) but i feel like it’s off the CHARTS on a night out - from keeping track of how much everyone has been drinking to making constant trips to the bar to get water for the liability of the group, he’s the real angel of the evening (he’ll herd the ghouls home as well when the uber he booked doesn’t turn up). also can chug a pint faster than any other ghoul. 12/10 literal guardian angel demon who is the only one holding this night out together damn it!!
rain is the aforementioned liability. he’s the friend who is too proud to admit they’re a lightweight (even when they’ve fallen arse over tit outside the club), he’s the friend you have to physically restrain to convince the bouncer he should be allowed in. he’s also the friend that has the BEST vibes at the afters because he’s finally reached a sensible level of drunk. 11/10 he might need a tacky c (don’t even ask) but he’s got the best stories for the morning-after debrief
mountain is the self-proclaimed munchies aficionado. a comforting, looming presence as the group dances the night away, he’s almost always got his mind half on which kebab van/chip shop is nearest (and best value for money). he enjoys a boogie as much as any ghoul, but really comes into his own as they stumble out into the night and guides the ghoul gang (ghang) towards the best places for scran like a chippie lighthouse. 11/10 will flirt shamelessly with the kebab shop owners for free chips
short king of the pre-drinks is dew. possessing an apparently infinite knowledge of drinking games (thunderstruck is his favourite with ring of fire a close second) and an endlessly specific range of playlists, he’s the real mvp of making sure everyone heads to the club on the best possible square level. he’s definitely a big fan of squadka (equal parts squash, water, and vodka - it’s a british thing sorry but it’s very dew) and will tell you at LENGTH why it’s the best pre-drink (‘you get hydrated AND blackout drunk, what’s not to love?’) 12/10 mixes terrifying drinks but will have you on the square AND on the level by the time you reach the club
everyone knows you need that one friend who isn’t afraid to scrap on a night out. no surprise here it’s cirrus - if a creep comes anywhere near one of the group she’s there with a well-placed elbow to the diaphragm and a snarled threat of worse. she’s also not afraid to argue with bouncers but the ghouls will attest that sometimes SHE needs an elbow in the ribs and a muffled ‘please stop arguing we’re trying to charm our way inside’. 12/10 has always got your back and is ready to throw hands (and drinks)
cumulus is the ceo of the club bathroom. ghouls travel in packs when loo trips are concerned - whether it’s at the pre-drinks or in the club, cumulus has you covered. armed with a tiny folding hairbrush to fit in her bag, powder to fix your makeup, and the smallest bottle of tropical-scented bodyspray you’ve ever seen, she’s always dead-set on making sure everyone feels their best when they’re throwing it back (swisstopher i’m looking at you) on the light-up dancefloor. 12/10 will tell you if your eyeliner has smudged and always has a hairband on her wrist for when the club gets sweaty
our beloved sunshine is the unofficial club photographer of the group. she will SOMEHOW make you look sexy n candid even if you’re in the grimiest club in town with your eyeliner halfway down your cheeks. a big fan of ‘paying it forward’, she’s the first to buy rounds of drinks, appearing from nowhere with eight bottles miraculously clasped between her claws. 11/10 documents all the highs and lows of the night for the ghang to laugh at as they suffer through their hangovers (it’s mostly pictures of rain falling over)
always nice to put my questionable decisions field research into practice! hope you enjoyed ghesties
