Something I wrote this because Aqua back to the 80s is stuck in my head all flicking day and Iâm tired. And if my random ass brain can imagine Steve in a scoops suit singing dark trauma to cheesy Euro-pop music you will also be subjected to it. All those colours. Barbie doll. Anyone. No. Whelp looks like itâs just me.
The rest of the gangs around somewhere. Didnât know how to fit them into the bullet points though.
Itâs 89, post Vecna, post government mountain of paperwork, Eddieâs pouting about not being able to continue with CC as his face is too recognisable and they donât need anybody questioning the governmentâs hapdash attempt at a cover up. Heâs spending his off time (which currently is in abundance) writing his trauma into songs (and if he so happens to write a certain dethroned kingâs into little cheesy earwigs because it makes that certain person laugh, it means nothing)
Itâs 90 and Eddie is having a mental block on writing when he hears something that gets the juices flowing. Itâs summer, the party is at Steveâs and Eddie was going to get a drink from the kitchen where heâs halted just outside the kitchens doorway arch. Inside Steve is spinning a giggling Robin about as he sings cheesy made up ditties just to make her smile, which Eddie realises are his earwigs he made about Steveâs trauma. What surprises him more is god that boy can sing. Eddie disappears into Steveâs dadâs office and isnât seen till dinner.
Itâs 91 and Eddie presents steve with a finished lyric sheet and a cassette the CC boys and robin helped him make. A song about vecna and the witch hunt wrapped up in bubblegum pop. [think euro pop band Aqua -esk]. After a bit of confusion, he explains about hearing Steve sing so he wrote a song for Steve to sing with Robin as second. By Christmas they have a song painstakingly recorded, multiplied and sent out to record companies.
Itâs 99 and [insert band name here] is popular. Their most popular songs are about a cookie cutter Ken doll who doesnât fit in, a little birdy with no responding song, two siblings from a small American town with home grown conspiracies, a haunted mansion full of family ghosts, and a song written without their main writer about a curly haired boy, with a large smile and a bigger personality. Rumours of a curtain curly haired metalhead sneaking in backstage are rapidly growing.
As the bell tolls midnight bringing in the millennium a photo is captured and circulated of the metalhead with one of the lead singers of [band] and it certainly wasnât Buckley who everyone was speculating the metalhead was visiting regularly.
Itâs 92 and there is conspiracies galore about the missing [band] members who disappeared only months after the picture was leaked of Eddie Munson and Steve Buckley kissing on new years. What really happened was they all decided to settle down in Italy, run a small holiday vineyard and get some qualifications.
Itâs 2016 and Steve Munson is mortified and happily fielding questions from his class as theyâve somehow managed to find old videos and images of his days in [band]. Talks about Robin getting married to an Englishwoman in 2013 when it became legal. About how his husband wrote most of their songs. And when asked about the subject matter he responds with âwe had over-imaginations and a case of the whimsiesâ.
