vance auclaire is not from here. he lived in france for the first 14 years of his life, until he is forced to move in with his father in america after his mother suddenly lost custody of him. vance is now forced to go by vance hopper, and be around people who only speak english; a language he doesn't speak. he feels so confused. he just wants his mother and old friends back. but then he meets bruce yamada. lucky for vance, bruce knows a good amount of french. he gets to know vance, and patiently teaches vance english. it's alright at first. but then he falls in love. and he isn't sure how to communicate that in a way that won't confuse vance. #4 in brance - 12/16/22 1.91k views - 1/12/23 2k views - 1/13/23 7.35k views - 5/25/23

Vance Hopper and Bruce Yamada had always been at odds with each other. They were complete opposites - where Bruce was a friendly well behaved kid and loved by most, Vance on the other hand was short tempered and loathed by almost everyone in town. Where Bruce loved the outdoors, Vance preferred to stay inside. Where Bruce was always joking around, Vance took everything seriously. It wasn't that they disliked each other - in fact, they never actually had a one on one talk with each other - but there was an undeniable tension between them that neither could quite put their finger on.

bruce yamada is tired of his parents demanding he gets into a relationship. but, eventually he complies. he decides to seek out someone he knows they would absolutely hate to see him with. that person? vance hopper. characters are sixteen-seventeen btw, modern au based on the song 18 by anarbour! intentional lowercase

I was tired of not seeing more of brance so I made a fan fic :P

Bruce feels disgusted by himself after the Grabber touched him. [The kids that were kidnapped before Finney weren't killed, just locked in a room with connection to the black phone in Finney's room. They helped Finney kill the Grabber the way they did in the movie and then got rescued. In that time the 'dead' boys became friends and hung out, including Finney in their group.]
