Beverly for the character ask please?
favorite thing about them: That despite what she had been through, she remained an overall good person and that she was able to overcome and get away from the things that sought to hold her in place and control her. I find (in any canon) her bravery and ability to fight back very admirable.
least favorite thing about them: The only thing I dislike about her is that she basically takes advantage of the boys in the book in that one scene, but I prefer to erase that whole thing from my memory and pretend it has no basis in canon anyway lmao
favorite line: “Because I want to run towards something, not away” (To this day that line speaks to me on a deep, personal level.)
brOTP: Beverie (that’s Bev and Richie right??) and Stanverly
random headcanon: She steals random articles of clothing from all the boys at some point and adds that one piece to random outfits she puts together. For example, she takes a neutral, warm colored scarf from Mike and pairs it with a baby-doll dress and tall boots. She borrows the most from Ben. None of the boys ever complain though because they find it charming.
unpopular opinion: I strongly disagree with the idea that Bev always knows what to do or say in any given situation. I do not think that she is always best suited to help the Losers. Hell, I don’t always think she is even best suited to help herself a lot of the time. I think that’s a realism to her character that gets kind of lost in fanon. I admire the strength and conviction she does have, but I don’t think she is the type of person who you can look to at all times regardless of the situation. She often finds herself at a loss as much as she would like to help.
song i associate with them: You Don’t Own Me by Lesley Gore
favorite picture of them: I love any picture of her smiling, she deserves to be happy
