tell me about bobbyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!
I WOULD LOVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT bobbyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
So this was a fic idea that basically jumped into my head shortly after finishing my second watchthrough of the show, basically a character study of Bobby framed by his thoughts watching the Stand Tall performance! I have a lot of feelings about him in that moment, and I’m really hoping I can finish it at some point! It also has hints of Bobby/Rose because the idea came to me long before my eyes were opened to the joys of Boggie oops
I do have a bit written of it - these would be the first couple of paragraphs:
They were supposed to be forever
Trevor remembers the first time he played one of his songs for Julie.  Carrie had liked being his daughter back then, had been proud of him, had dragged all her friends home to listen to his music.  He remembers the way Julie’s face lit up, remembers Rose’s bright smile when she comes to get Julie after her gig. Remembers Carrie whining, wanting Julie to stay longer.
It still blows his mind that in another world, in another timeline, Julie and Carrie might have been sisters.
As he watches Julie step out onto the stage at the Orpheum, Trevor leans forward, watching intently for any sign, any clue that he isn’t about to have his world crashing down on him.  Julie talks about her mom, sets a dahlia on the keyboard, and Trevor can’t help but feel a lump form in his throat.  There’s a loud cheer from behind him and he twists in his seat, spying Ray and Victoria.  Carlos is with them, but he never knew Carlos as well as he knew Julie.  There’s pride in Ray’s eyes, and Trevor knows if Rose was there, she would be feeling the same way.
