Media Sucks
Media Sucks
Anonymous asked: can i request some platonic headcanons about the whole band? so the reader is a part of the band, but the media has been sexualing her so much to the point that she wants to leave the band. How would the boys react?
So, let's get this, even if the band may seem like assholes at times or you guys may argue
You guys care about each other no matter what
You have to, especially because of how long you guys have been together and all you've done together
You all love being in the band
Tom annoys you, Bills the mother of the group, Gustavs the annoying yet caring brother, and Georg is the one to annoy you but also be loveable at the same time
So to see you wanting to leave the band made them sad
Especially because of how the media was treating you
You didn't do much except live a teenage girl's life
You may flirt with fans on occasion, get spotted with a boy or even had a boyfriend
But somehow the media always found a way to sexualize you
Especially because you're the only girl of the band
Tom hated seeing how they treated you, especially seeing how down you got because of it
Bill tries his best to comfort you, telling you to ignore them
Gustav is there for you when you need to talk, constantly keeping you away from tabloids and interviewers who ask questions like that about you
Georg gets pissed at times, especially when interviewers ask questions doing that shit to you
You guys can't tell them to shut up or anything like that
You did once and was scolded by your manager
The band hates seeing this go on
They understand you want to leave and why
But they try their best to get you to stay
The band wouldn't be the same without you
Georg once went pissed off because of the questions about you online, putting a literal teenage girl like that in a photoshoot because your the only girl
The media painted you as some sort of sexualized object and they hated that
When they bring it up they see how you get sad
So they do what they can, if it's in interviews, they ask if you're okay quietly and ignore the interviewer
If it's paparazzi, they push the cameras and mics away and help you get out of here
If it's online, they keep spamming reporting it to get it taken down or have your manager contact the article writers or the tabloids to get them to take it down
They understand you're tired of it all
They feel so bad they can't do more when they see you stress over it and become exhausted
You're like their sister, they hate seeing you upset about this
One point it got so bad with your manager doing nothing that you all refused to work until they put a statement out or legit anything
They didn't go to signings, concerts or anything to help and support you
They all took a small "break"It was really a little strike thing where you guys snuck off for a while and did what you want
They try their best to help you, making sure you're okay and if you want to leave the band still, they understand
They just hope they can find out a way to stop it all, wishing they could
You want a break? They'll let you have it
But they're gonna take it with you until you're ready
