Have Some Random RTC Headcanons While I Wonder Why I’m Up So Early

Have some random RTC headcanons while I wonder why I’m up so early

Penny sits in chairs backwards. She finds that much more comfy than sitting normally, and she does it in class so much her teachers just gave up

Constance adores spicy food. She just loves anything spicy, could be Mexican, could be Indian, could just be chicken wings slathered in Buffalo sauce, she loves it

Ocean, despite claiming to be as religious as possible, always has a temporarily tattoo of Saturn on her arm. It’s usually covered by her uniform, and she wanted to get it permanently done when she was old enough… that never happened

Ricky enjoys watching cartoons for little children, they stimulate his brain and they’re his comfort zone. He has forced the choir to watch every single episode of Bluey ‘till they all could recite half of them on a whim

Noel and horror movies go together like PB&J. He watches them whenever and usually gets Mischa to watch them with him on date nights. If he wasn’t so engrossed in his French cinema he would’ve definitely become a horror fanatic

Mischa doesn’t like strawberries. He just doesn’t. No one knows why, or if he has an allergy or anything, they just know he despises strawberries. Only Mischa knows that strawberries were his mother’s favorite, and now that she’s gone he hates eating them without her

Something that really got me about 17776 was people talking about things from their childhood...

Orange text: You know, I never went to New York. Never even visited. I don't know why I didn't. I remember watching Sesame Street when I was little, and I liked how people would just sit on their steps and talk to each other in front of these nice and neat and square buildings. And all they had to do was cross the street or go next door to talk to each other.

Orange text: NANCY: I remember that! It was a little before my time, but I remember my dad used to talk about it, he didn't think too much of it. He called it uh, what did he call it?

NANCY: Oh, he said the WPA stood for "whistle, piss and argue!"

Green text: Yep, and you can probably fill in the rest. When I was a boy, you know, eight, nine, ten, I used to go back here and play. I was like, "I bet I'm the only person in the world who even remembers that little cave at all." And look at me! I was right.

Green text: And now nobody does. Even my childhood friends, the ones I used to play with when I was a boy, they've forgotten about the cave we discovered in the way back when. Or else they don't care, because I'm sure as hell none of them come to visit.

Orange text: I was eight years old then, and I remember just kinda standing there and looking at the light, and the room. And you know what I thought?

I remember thinking how strange it was that the light was still on. I thought that, well, if he was gone, then the light he switched on should've turned off. That as soon as he went, everything should go with him.

But there it was, though. Just glowing.

Like most people will forget many things from childhood over the course of their natural life - can you *imagine* holding on to multiple lifetimes' worth of memories? And still recalling the oldest ones??

Yellow text: JASON: Man, it's funny how you don't remember something so obvious. There's just too much to remember.

Orange text: LORI: Oh, absolutely! I mean, it's thousands of years! You can only remember so much. OK,

You can only remember so much. And yet Lori still feels an ache that she never got to see New York. Eddie is still memorizing every inch of the cave he played in as a kid. Nancy still remembers what it was like to lose her grandfather as a child, and things her dad used to say.

After THOUSANDS of years... but of course they would hold onto them. After all, those memories seem to be the only pieces of human childhood left - besides beautiful old murals, submerged and abandoned.

But we're talking about infinity - how long until the last person forgets how things used to be? Until the centuries are blurred together, until forever has been always?

Or can anyone truly, entirely forget what childhood felt like? Is that not what they're all chasing, coming back to through creating and playing games together?

It never has to end, the sun will never set, you never have to go home, we can keep playing together and never have to grow up again. We will never get to grow up again.
