I just got hit with a wave of nostalgia I didn’t even know was possible…

mojang make jesstra canon and my life is yours

this feels like an interaction between me and one of my besties (she licks people’s hands if they get too close)

Peter has really sensitive hands. One time he covered Egon's mouth to annoy him, Egon licked his hand in retaliation and Peter screeched

gb headcanon day #106

Due to popular demand, here are some of my personal Ghostbusters headcanons! Using the prompts that I had from my original posts lol. Most of these talk about Ray and Peter, but I’ll eventually talk about the other guys too :)

just a reminder that these are MY OWN personal headcanons, and if you don’t like them then you’re free to ignore them and move on. If you use my headcanons, please credit me! Also, if I get anything wrong about mental health here, please let me know so I can fix it! I’m still in progress of getting an official diagnosis for myself, so if I get the symptoms of depression and anxiety wrong, tell me! I do not want to accidentally stereotype, and/or misinterpret mental health.

Family-

Peter’s family is of confusing origin. His father, Jim Venkman (yes I’m using the canon name, but perhaps one of Peter’s relatives was named Charlie, and thats why Peter has the middle name Charles) was born in America by parents of mostly unknown origin, and his mother is Italian. (I gave her the name Beatrice, with her former last name being Lorenzo. If you use it please credit me) She moved to the Americas and eventually met Jim. The two inevitably fell in love and had a kid, Peter. Unfortunately Beatrice died when he was young, causing Jim to be distant, throwing himself into work. It is unknown whether or not Peter has any other relatives out there- in some of my writing it’s implied he has a sister, and maybe another relative..? But that’s for another time- but his family situation definitely influenced the way his personality is, being dodgy with personal questions and being a bit of a little shit to mask the loneliness that still lingers in his heart from being ignored so much. I’d imagine Ray not talking about his family or childhood memories too much, but when he does, it’s usually standard stuff. Roasting marshmallows at summer camp, learning to ride a bike, the typical happy childhood. This leads most to assume that he had a pretty good childhood. The truth is, the memories he share aren’t really painting the full picture. He was happy as a young kid, yes. But it’s mostly because he was simply blind to the truth when he was little. In my headcanon, his mother wasn’t the greatest person in the world. Perhaps even cheated on his father. The family was lower income, [I’d imagine the only reason Ray got into Columbia university was pure chance, a science fair or some other scholarship that got him off the ground and to a better school but idk yet.] and his mother just used it irresponsibly. Was it gambling? Was it alcohol? Nobody knows. But he had no clue. To his child self, he didn’t seem to understand why his mom constantly ignored him and his [possible] siblings. His father, like Peter’s, worked a lot to pick up the pieces and inevitably divorced his wife- and for good reason. Now as an adult, he’s trying to make up for the years of love lost, which is why he’s so close and affectionate with a lot of his friends. He wants to give them what he was missing, even if he constantly denies it.

Curse-

This is more of a metaphorical sense, but in a planned comic there IS an actual curse that sticks around in the Venkman family, which causes problems. (If you wanna know, please ask :D)

The Venkman family has an issue with keeping the ones they love around, whether that be romantic or platonic. Somehow people keep disappearing and/or leaving them, and it usually results in putting up walls and ignoring the ones who really do love them, out of fear of being hurt. The Stantz family usually has a pattern of mental health issues being passed down. Ray’s mother was most likely depressed, leading to her ignoring him a ton. (This isn’t saying that her depression is the thing that made her a horrible person. What made her a horrible person was the cheating, lying, and misuse of money that was meant to go into feeding her family. Her mental health isn’t what made her horrible. It was her actions. She used her depression as more of a shield to shift the blame.) Ray most likely has depression and/or anxiety too- implied in some of his dialogue in the starting cutscene of spirits unleashed. (The dialogue saying that some days he couldn’t find the motivation to get out of bed in the morning, wondering why it was worth it to try.) He most likely feared becoming a parent, worrying that his own mental health will be tanked and he’ll ignore the poor child, just like his mother did with him. He puts on a happy face for the public and his friends, always acting energetic and happy, but the scars still linger, which is possibly why he smoked a lot. Stress relief.

Parallels-

You probably caught on already, but both Peter and Ray have HEAVY parallels here. They were both Mama’s boys growing up. Both were quite young when their mother figures disappeared on them- figuratively or literally- and their fathers were distant. Their personalities came from defense mechanisms, trying to either make up for the years lost or protect themselves from further heartbreak and harm. They stick with their friends because they don’t know where else to go, because there’s always a lingering fear of judgement. The fear of commitment, the uncertainty of having a kid but being super protective of any child in danger, like Oscar.

The two bonded over this. It’s how they first met. They sought each other out. It’s also how they probably met Egon too. Another man damaged by his childhood, just attempting to be normal in this world.

And of course, when their mental health finally starts getting better- when things are looking brighter for all of them…

Egon leaves.

(Bro this is incredibly depressing wtffffff- please feel free to add on and/or analyze my yapping, and I hope y’all enjoyed my first official personal headcanon post!!)

I KEEP FORGETTING THERE’S A MANGA WHAT

there's a ghostbusters manga and i particularly like egon in goth lolita

OMG I LOVE IT AAAAAAA

Anyone have any ideas on how I can incorporate the other ghostbuster characters into the gravity falls au?

We already have some characters who fill in the roles of their gravity falls characters loosely

-Pheeb and Trev are like Dipper and Mabel, can be interchanged but I feel like trev is more Mabel while pheeb is more Dipper.

-Egon is Ford

-Peter is Stan

-Mel is Pacifica-will explain more but she isn't an antagonistic

-Lucky is Wendy- I will say they are around the same ages as they are in afterlife. I wanna say it's their ages between afterlife and fe.

I kinda want to make Gozer Bill.... but if you guys have any other ideas I'd like to hear!

Ohh I can make The Rookie from the video game Soos!

Maybe I can make Podcast a character like Candy of Grenda?

Oooh I feel like Melody would absolutely love Litwick and it’s evolutions

Like Omg look at them they’re so cute

Idea...?

What would people think of a Checkmatch Pokemon AU? I don't know if its already been done but i've just been thinking about it....

Me: watching Ghostbusters for the plot

The plot:

AaaaaaaaaAAAAAA

this whole AU gets me wondering about how every other episode would go and I’m so curious.. maybe the blind eye could be Gozer worshippers? Blind Ivan could be Ivo Shandor!

Vigo as the Shapeshifter idk why

Maybe he’s made of mood slime and that’s how he can change forms

OOOO I LIKE THIS IDEA, and the weird bug form can be his "demon" face form...

ALSO YES BEING A GOO SHAPE SHIFTING CREATURE MADE OF NEGATIVELY CHARGED MOOD SLIME IS PERFECT
