heathers: the musical

Summary:

chaotic groupchat about the spring play

a/n: discontinued!

Notes:

A/N CONTINUED: feel free to read for some fluff, but i cannot find it in myself to continue this when i know i heavily disagree with joshua bassett’s actions irl. he has three sexual assault allegations against him (one was already disproven) & said the f-slur recently. plus his silence towards BLM spoke volumes. he’s spoken up since then, but only because we (the fans) pressured him to, and that honestly doesn’t sit well with me. nonetheless, RJ will always have a place in my heart.

 

 

- original a/n
i was having second thoughts about making ash and kourt NOT be together in this story but i think i’m going to stick with the whole ash/red storyline because kourt is a strong independent woman who don’t need no relationship to distract her from theatre 😤

that being said, the two main relationships are gonna be RJ and gini because gay rights! also this story is inspired by whoever wrote an au where the cast ended up doing heathers: the musical for their spring play (except whoever did that au wrote an actual STORY, whereas this is a literal shitshow. i promise u, whoever wrote that story, i am not trying to undermine u nor steal your work at all!)

nini: how

gina: ricky’s obviously making fun of EJ’s initials

ricky: he doesn’t like when i call him by his real first name so i make up other names instead

ash: i’m-

kourt: how does ricky have so much weed ALL THE DAMN TIME and not get caught

big red: his dad

kourt: his dad gives him weed?

big red: no i mean his dad isn’t ever home anymore so it’s not like he can ever tell ricky anything

big red: so ricky just buys a LOT and lets it sit in his room until he smokes EJ out 

nini: i wish my girlfriend would smoke me out

gina: but you like it more when i do other things 😈

big red: this is a christian minecraft server...

gina: she likes when i take her thrift shopping, get your mind out of the gutter

big red: 😕

ash: you walked right into that

carlos: ok but doesn’t EJ play water polo?

seb: drug tests 👀

nini: he’s not doing water polo until the summer when school ends

seb: why?

nini: he wants to do theatre right now in high school because he’s probably not going to do it next year in college

gina: you know so much about him, it’s almost like you dated 

nini: but i love you more 😘

kourt: so EJ’s getting smoked out, getting some bomb ass relaxation time with ricky AND he has good grades?

kourt: wishing that was me 💔 

kourt: we’ll all talk later when i get smoked out, byeee

seb: i’m gonna go milk my cow

carlos: i’m gonna help him milk his cow

ash: is it just me or...

big red: ...that sounded oddly sexual?

nini: knowing them, they probably actually are milking seb’s cow

gina: seb’s too innocent to come up with an innuendo like that

gina: plus, ricky and EJ are the horny ones that say dirty shit 24/7

ash: you guys have no idea how hard it is being EJ’s cousin sometimes

ash: now he has you guys but i’m still like his best friend

nini: i already know what you’re going to say 😭

ash: ricky could breathe and EJ would be like

ash: “he breathes the same way when he’s choking on my d-😳”

big red: and on that note, i’m gonna go talk to ricky and EJ 

gina: now that he’s gone ^

gina: CONTINUE

nini: yes please i can’t wait to laugh at EJ about this when he comes back

ash: omg so last year

gina: yeah???

ash: i was at the mall with them and EJ was ordering our food at the food court 

nini: classic EJ

ash: and one of my old friends from middle school came up

ash: obviously i was talking to him for a while 

ash: but EJ only turned around when this guy started talking to ricky and had his arm around him

gina: oh shit

ash: this guy’s completely straight btw but he was being super flirty with ricky because that’s just his personality 

nini: me

gina: you put your arm around other people when you meet them for the first time?

nini: no ofc not!

ash: ANYWAYS

ash: EJ finished paying but he was MADDD

gina: me when nini puts her arm around other people 😪

nini: babe!

ash: ok but EJ came over and he didn’t even wait for the other guy to take his arm off of ricky

ash: he just started making out with him in the middle of the food court and smiled at the other guy when he was done 😭

ash: my guy was out of there when EJ did that

gina: he really took “carti i wanna go to pluto” to the next level...mans DIPPED

ash: EJ got our food to go and he made me drive back home while he kept making out with ricky in the backseat 😔

nini: lmaooo ash i’m so sorry omfg

gina: EJ said fuck ash rights, i’m going to think my boyfriend is eye-fucking every other guy in the world 💔

ash: to be fair they had only been dating for a month then and EJ was still insecure about the fact that “someone like him would like someone like me”

nini: aw ☹️

gina: yeah i think it would be weird if he was still doing that when it’s been like a year now

ash: it only happened once, i just think it’s funny that he really let himself get that jealous 

nini: no i get it, gina’s done that sometimes (not in a bad way)

nini: it’s nice to know that someone cares as long as they don’t go overboard 

ash: ok true 

gina: the way this chat just got deep...

ash: the way EJ is gonna see these texts later...

nini: LMFAO BYE

nini: i had no part in this 🤫

gina: EJ if you’re reading this, nini and i are innocent ❤️

gina: we are leaving now ❤️

ash: the way i’m alone now

ash: heart been broke so many times

big red: i don’t know what to believeee

big red: mama said it’s my fault 😢

ash: were you just listening to me spill tea i-

big red: maybe

ash: i’m leaving now ❤️

big red: not if i leave first ❤️
