HEADCANONS
So, Zev 2.0 is really not that different, but he is a little more angsty. He’s mellowed out a bit now, but high-school Zev was definitely a little bit of a handful
He’s still mostly the same guy, still kind of a nervous outcast with a heart of gold, he just has a bit more of a rebellious streak. it’s only very small rebellions (making stupid gory horror movies with friends, swerving his skateboard around tourists on the boardwalk, loitering in the mall, you know how it is)
He’s a little more in touch with his sexuality. “comfortable” is not the word i would use to describe it, but i wouldn’t be surprised if he’d had some ~experiences~ in the past (oh hey that’s a fun new plot someone plot that with me hehe)
if you catch him at home, at a family outing, or at his internship you might get whiplash. he puts on full ‘preppy drag’ (sweater vests, polo shirts, slacks, ties, pastels?!, loafers?!?!) for those things but all other times he’s in jeans, a random t-shirt, sneakers, and his leather jacket.
he spends just an insane amount of time at the mall. if you are ever at the mall, at almost any time of day, you can probably find zev. he usually sees pretty much every movie the cineplex is screening and plays every arcade game as many times as he can before someone yells at him for hogging the machine
he hates his internship and tries to do as little as possible at it. if no one is looking at him, he’s probably making notes for his next movie or trying to be discrete about listening to his walkman
zev brings at least one camera everywhere. he has a standard polaroid for shooting still images and a vhs camcorder. this boy asks for nothing but packs of film and blank tapes for christmas and birthdays
the only part of his room that is organized are his shelves. he has one bookshelf that’s all the videos he owns (movies, tv seasons, etc) and another shelf that’s all the tapes he’s shot. they all have handmade labels saying a couple words about where they were shot and when. it’s getting to the point where he’s going to need another bookshelf…
NEW PLOT POTENTIALS
aforementioned ~experiences~
regulars in his movies. i want to really put his silly little films and his filmmaking dreams back at the forefront of his character. someone please be the bruce campbell to his sam raimi, the kyle maclachlan to his david lynch, the jeffrey combs to his stuart gordon. are you down to not only get covered in fake blood and gore but also make a mess of the hargrove kitchen by helping to concoct it? you’re in.
literally whatever man idk lets have fun with it
