Went blueberry picking with @theartfuldead for 3 hours, so of course I made headcanons & she added to them (with a bit of help from our friend Jamie). Inspired partly by this.
Ashley: Ashley is bisexual, and her preference (between girls&boys) is split fairly evenly, but her major crush on Chris has stopped her from exploring any other attractions. She was, however, briefly attracted to Jess, which was one of the hints that made her realise she’s bi.
Beth: Beth 👏 is 👏 a 👏 lesbian 👏 and 👏 proud. Her first kiss was with Sam, and that’s who she had her first real crush on, but her feelings faded pretty quickly when she pushed them down. She really wants to get into a relationship with a cute girl, but is making the most of being single.
Chris: Chris is asexual (sex neutral) and biromantic. At one point, he wanted something more to happen between him and Josh, but then he met Ashley and it was “one-sided” puppy love. He’s been too nervous to ask anyone out, because he didn’t know how they would react to him being ace. Whenever Josh teases him about taking Ashley to the Bone Zone, he gets a little uncomfortable as he’s not really sure that he wants to. (Maybe the date zone? Not quite as catchy.)
Emily: Emily is asexual and greyromantic, rarely having any attraction to anyone. She did care for Mike and Matt, but not in the way they may have felt about her. She would much rather have a close friend to share her life with than any sort of romantic or sexual partner, and never plans on getting married.
She thought maybe Jess could be her exception and she really tried to have feelings for her (bc everyone loves Jess), but it didn’t work out. They both enjoyed their fling and it made them closer friends (who occasionally have drunken make out sessions when Jess is single).
Hannah: Hannah is the one totally straight friend of the group. They used to have some others, but after the years the weak weeded themselves out. Hannah will protect her queer friends and will fight anyone if they have a problem with them.
Jessica: Jess is pansexual. If you’re attractive and can keep up with her at parties, there’s a good chance she’ll look your way, but when looking for a real relationship, she’s a little more picky. While she takes her relationships seriously, she has trouble seeing the person, or less specifically, the gender of the person she’ll eventually settle down with.
Josh: Josh thinks he’s straight, but then again, he may be bi… or pan (he’s definitely questioning it). Josh can’t tell how to draw the line between finding someone nice to look at and actually being attracted to them, so he’s not sure on how he wants to identify yet. He finds all of his friends fairly attractive, but would probably only date Sam (and really wants to). HOWEVER, Josh will flirt with anyone, especially if it makes them blush (sometimes Jess joins him).
Matt: Matt identifies as heteroflexible, because he’s only really been into girls, but he’s met a guy that he’d be into dating, and doesn’t feel like he could *only* fall for a woman. He had a very brief thought about what him and Mike would be like, but shut down that train of thought almost immediately.
Mike: Mike is bisexual with a heavy preference towards girls. He struggled with internalized homophobia for a while, but learned to accept himself and now jokes about his sexuality a lot of the time (but only he is allowed to do so). He’s never had a serious relationship with a guy, but he has hooked up with one or two and could see it happening.
Sam: Sam’s demisexual polyromantic. In fact, she’s so demi, that she’s only had one big crush (on Josh), and maybe one or two smaller ones (she’s not entirely sure, because feelings are confusing). She’s been attracted to a few others, but whenever she imagines herself getting married and starting a family, it’s only been with one person, even if she hasn’t had a crush on him in a few years.
