My Victoria Byng Headcanons (requested by Anonymous)

I am so sorry I took so long but they’re finally here! I really hope everyone likes them. If you want me to write headcanons for another character, you can but please understand they probably won’t come right away. Ideas just don’t always come to mind that easily. I’m already writing headcanons for Sally so stay tuned for that. I’m actually thinking of writing headcanons for Johnny Bolton so let me know if you want that. Anyways, enjoy and have a lovely day!

🥻Before she became a Downer, Victoria had the delusion that her mother was never imprisoned and was currently having a lovely time in India. She does speak of India from time to time and expresses the desire to visit, but thinking of it brings up painful memories. Partially at the behest of her father, she takes an huge amount of Joy to keep them away.

☎️She has lots of friends but is not particularly close to any of them. This is due to both her tendency to be a workaholic and the general shallowness of relationships between Wellies. This is the reason why she did not realize the full extent of Prudence's feelings toward her. Victoria liked Prudence a lot, believing her to be very talented but sadly, their bond was severed when Victoria told Prudence she suspected her of being a Downer. Shortly thereafter, Prudence vanished. After the events of We All Fall Down, I think Victoria would be very sad to hear of Prudence's demise. She's another name in the list of people whose lives were destroyed by Joy and Vicky holds a lot of guilt. Her role in Prudence's death makes it even sadder. I think they would have been good friends or even lovers.

📦Her home used to have artwork, books and memorabilia from India. She loved them but when she looked at them, they made her sad to the point where she started crying. She told her father about this and he gave her tea laced with Joy. He then hired someone to come into her home and take all of the things related to India.

📚Victoria sometimes hosts book club and women's club meetings at her home. Uncle Jack's three books about the war were the subject of some of the meetings. Looking back at this, Downer!Victoria, being a lover of history, would disparage the books as being terribly written and dull.

🤬Unlike the other potty-mouthed protagonists of We Happy Few, Victoria very rarely swears. Both of her parents, especially her aristocratic mother, made it a priority to install grace and elegance in their daughter. It takes an extreme amount of stress (and anger) to make Victoria swear as seen in the cutscene when Ollie forces her off Joy. Also, if Downer!Victoria ever swore, she would hear her mother curtly admonishing her so she refrains from it.

🪅Victoria's favorite Uncle Jack segments are Funny Old Customs and Famous Britons since she likes history albiet the sanitized version of history shown to Wellies. So unsurpisingly it was her idea to bring the piñata on the day Arthur went Downer. But of course since everyone is on Joy and have no idea they're just watching reruns, many many other piñatas have probably been smashed before the one we saw.

🧳In her post-Wellington Wells, I like to think that Vicky got involved in politics in some way or another. She of course has many regrets but her leadership skills would not fade. Also, she was probably a key witness of what happened in Wellington Wells and has written books and given interviews about it. Most survivors prefer to live as if it never happened.

The long awaited appreciation post/character breakdown

Note : I mixed canon and headcanon facts from my book in here. (Some infos however are still missing because of spoiler reasons)

A/N - If someone would ask me to discribe Héctor, I would tell them that he's a walking ray of sunshine, spreading happiness wherever he goes. He's everything a perfect father and husband should be, and the bestest friend anyone could ever ask for.

Orgins

Héctor Rivera was born to his parents Arlo and Estella Gracía on january 10th in Santa Cartoria (the biggest part of the city El Torres) in Yucatan.

Through his mother's hispanic gipsy orgin, Héctor was brought into a world full of dancing and music. He was loved to pieces by all his family members and discribed as an unusual happy baby, always laughing and hardly ever crying.

The love for guitars especially was planted into Héctor by his father, who was a passionate guitar builder and player himself.

Both his parents, which he was very close with, meant the world to Héctor. Between the age of 3 and 4 Héctor lost his father first to a local civil war whereupon his mother, after seperated from her family, fled with him all the way to Oaxaca, Santa Cecilia by foot. Once in the new city, the exhausted and sick mother and her son were taken in by nuns of the local church. After Estella's death, Héctor was brought to the orphanage, where he subconsciously supressed his memories to cope with the loss.

Early childhood

Despite the great loss of his parents and family, Héctor never lost his optimistic and lively character. Always seeing the good rather than the bad. Though shy and quiet at the other hand.

It didn't take long for Héctor to understand, that he was different from other children his age. Mentally ahead of others, he found joy in reading books, writing poems and exploring the surrounding nature on his own. Since the other kids would call him weird, Héctor didn't even bother to try and fit in, he didn't want to and he didn't care.

If not on and about in the fields and forests of Santa Cecilia, Héctor would find himself at the center plaza to watch and listen to the mariachis. His adoration didn't stay unnoticed for too long. Eventually he was taught how to play the guitar by the leader José Vargas by the age six.

According to Josè, Héctor lived and breathed music, having it in his soul. He also called the guitar Héctors third arm.

Most important Relationships

Ernesto

A/N - I wish I could just tell you their whole story here, that's how eager I am! But, it has its time and place in my book and I certainly don't want to spoil anything. So, here come the basics! Also they're 12 and 8 above ☝️

When Héctor told people he and Ernesto go way back, he meant it. They grew up together, formed a deep brother bond and loved and considered each other family.

Having Ernesto as big brother, Héctor always looked up to him. He couldn't imagine a life without him and tried his best to balance his time after marriage and becoming a father to please everyone.

Noticing Ernesto's behaviour change was painful and confusing. Just as much as getting rejected over and over again in the land of the death. Héctor never understood what made his best friend snap like that but he yearns to understand. Also, in my book, Héctor at one point says this to Álvaro (the doctor)

"As odd as it is, despite everything, I don't hate Ernesto. And don't get me wrong, but I know that he could never hate me either."

Furthermore he says this -

"That man at the sunrise spectacle, that wasn’t Ernesto. That wasn’t my best friend; my brother. He'd totally snapped, gone savage. I … I didn’t recognize him anymore. There was so much anger and fear in his eyes. I can’t make sense of it. I wish I could! I wish I could understand what happened to him. Caused him to become that way."

A/N - writing about their relationship and past was and is still tasking but it's also wonderful and exciting. I cannot wait to share that part of the past!

Imelda

Héctor 15 y. Imelda 16. y 👇

Héctor's one true love, his twin flame and soulmate.

From the moment he first spotted her, he felt that special, unexplainable spark. That deep connection has always been there, and it took a while for Héctor to understand what it meant.

Héctor was well aware that many couldn't really understand how he could manage being with Imelda and handle her fiery temper. But to him, it was never a problem. If asked about it, he would always reply that he even loves her temper tantrums. To him, they are "sexy"

- In my book, I discribe their reunion, their road of recovery and how they get back on track. Also their whole past and future. I'm obsessed with them! 😍 I love love love writing them up and down! *sigh*

Coco

Like father like daughter. Héctor passed down a lot of his characteristics to Coco. He was/is very close to her and despite his young age (becoming a father at 18) he was a remarkable good parent. Surprising everyone around how good he was at handling his baby. Héctor also was what others would call a helicopter Dad. Overprotective and always worried something might hurt his precious daughter.

Next to Imelda, Coco is Héctor's everything. Back when he was still aiming to cross the bridge, he was ready to rather die a second time trying than giving up.

A/N ~ Guh! Did I mention that he's the best Dad? He needs a 'best Dad ever' award!

Character traits

Positive :

Optimistic, humorous, ambitius, caring, altruistic, empathic, spontaneous, honest, protective, creative, easygoing, enthusiastic, gentle, humble, idealistic, innocent, loyal, forgiving, passionate, persistent, bubbly, spunky, supportive, trusting, unselfish ...

Negative/neutral :

Stubborn, melodramatic, reckless, shy, clumsy ...

Man I wish tumblr would allow me to post more than just 10 images 😒 ....

Now, if I haven't already gushed and raved about Héctor enough ... I FREAKING LOVE THAT GUY! Like, man, he's the perfect package of everything! He's incredibly handsome (to me at least) He's got frecklessss, ans those eyelashes! Fluffy hair! He's tall! Full lips, perfect white, straight teeth. And that combined with his personality, Ay Mama!

I enjoy writing Héctor a lot! He's just awesome! Like a hot cup of tea and a cozy blanket after a long walk through a snow covered forest.

His goofyness just cracks me up over and over again. His pure heart just deserves the biggest Aawwwww. I mean, the INNOCENCE! With Imelda behind closed doors, he surely knows the whole rollercoaster menu and while other adults would consider Miguel old enough to know what boobs are (he regulary gets his face shoved into his grandmas chest when she hugs him!) And here comes Héctor cencoring the word!

Back to him being a heli-dad. I bet you, he covered baby Cocos eyes whenever Imelda would walk out of the shower stark naked, trying hard not to drool like a great dane. And Imelda poker faced would just argue why he was covering their daughters eyes.

Or as soon as Coco could walk, Imelda would one day find all pointy furnitures covered with pillows and Héctor would say that he doesn't want Coco to hurt herself.

He would freak out big time when they would be outside and there's the slightest possibility of Coco getting hurt. Bees, birds, cats, dogs, stones, puddles, dirt. Imelda would regulary need to calm Héctor down, convincing him, that a bug bite isn't deadly and no, neither is a little bit of sand that Coco shoved into her mouth. Or that flower she ate.

And I cannot repeat this enough! The 👏 flower 👏 bridge 👏

The freaking thing with El puente ok!

I am over and over again blown that Héctor would stop by nothing to cross the bridge. Get caught? Try again. New disguise blown, try again. Broken bones? Try again. Risking to die a second time? He still tries. He simply doesn't care! He wants, needs, has to get to his one true love and daughter. And even after Imelda has passed over, he keeps going because Coco is still there! If that man's devotion isn't the prime example that perfect father love and the one true love exsists, I don't know what else could be.

Also, again, let me underline his kindness, his altruism! He's too good for the world! He hardly EVER picks a fight, he avoids fights! And even IF there's a situation of conflict, it takes Héctor, what, 5 seconds to backpaddle and be like "ok, you know what, let's not argue!"

We saw that with the police officer. Then with Chich, Ceci, Miguel, Ernesto and Imelda. He constantly takes the blame or gives in for the sake of peace, for the sake of the other ones feelings. He would rather swallow being right, if that means his opposite doesn't get hurt too much.

You really REALLY have to push and force Héctor to the farest edge, to have him snap and really get mad.

Being such a person deserves the highest respect. Being such a person in a word like ours is dangerous. You are bound to get hurt. And if you are STILL standing and still having that pure, kind heart, 👏 applause!

Such souls are rare! Héctor is a full blown jackpot! We need more people like Héctor in the world!

A little fun headcanon: When Jo was seven, Spike had bought her a turtle as a pet ( jk he had grabbed it off the park ). Jo was excited about it for about two to three days before she completely gave up on taking care of her and the turtle died of starvation. And then for the following three months, every night she went to bed she kept having the same dream where the turtle had humane eyes and lips like that nasty copy paste tik-tok filters and kept asking her ‘jO WhY dIDn’T YoU FeEed mE?!’

[dhampirslays]

/ a not-so-tiny ( but still painful ) head-canon: for the most part i’ve been focusing on adult Jo for headcanons and whatnot but now, i want to talk about tiny Jo; the freshly picked out by the Watchers kid who moved to the other side of the world away from everyone she loves and knows, who had trouble connecting with her peers ― a before Hope era ― because word got out that she had been raised by a vampire and, even if soulled, it was still frowned upon. considering she never had anyone to play with during the winters ( and let me tell you what, watchers tend to shove the schools and their headquarters far away from people’s eye so, like their castle in ireland, the school was well into the heart of the forest and it snowed A LOT ) little Jo just used the times of the day that they sent them to train alone to make little snow angels on the ground ― many at the time too. and then she’d just sit there and make up stories about said snow angels; some were explorers into the deep jungle searching for a jewel that made your deepest desire reality, others were faeries stuck in an other reality and they couldn’t go home until they defeated the bad guy. Jo always had vivid imagination so coming up with stories like that wasn’t a particular problem for her. and once day had turned into night and she had to go back inside because curfew, she’d purposely bruise her hands and knees to make it look like she had been training the entire day if anyone checked.

[dhampirslays]

I’ve seen others do it so i’m jumping in the wagon:

Head-canon for sinday:  Everyone whom Jo has slept with are dead:)

[dhampirslays]

It’s now a headcanon that Jo likes to eat her lunch whilst having murder stories videos playing on the background on youtube. The gore-er the better. She’s a well established adult, you see.

head-canons inspired by things i like !

[ 🧭 ] does your muse know what they want ? how well can they advocate for themselves ?

That one's a tricky question. Jo's a well-rounded individual when it comes to the slayer aspect of her life that she has learned to prioritize on almost every aspect; so yeah, in that domain, she's pretty straightforward with her wants and her decisions. It's the human part that she finds herself lacking. Considering she has spent her entire life learning how to be a better slayer, how to keep the world safe, no one has taught her how to be a normal person - even though she has picked some stuff up from her friends and family, such as college and this is probably why her life is so chaotic. She lacks in many of her human life aspects, such as love, a job that ISN'T dusting dead people and even developing friendships and socializing. Although her mental health HAS tainted several of those domains as well, such as commitment and abandonment issues with relationships and friendships, trust issues, and the antisocial slayer persona. But she's trying, okay ? she'll probably have it figured out by the time she's 30 ( if she survives that long ). As for how well they can advocate for themselves, that has more a solid answer to it. The person who can boss around Jo Summers hasn't been born yet, and even though she has a more relaxed and extroverted persona with her friends and family, she can sure as hell tell someone off ( very explicitly if it comes down at it too ) when she sees them trying to cross the lines she has put up as boundaries, or if it comes down to defending the people she loves. So, save from a few instances where she deems it better to keep quiet, she can advocate quite well for herself.

[ 🎈 ] does your muse have many regrets ? what are they ?

Most of her regrets surround the arena incident, mainly because, even though she had no choice in the matter, she was still an active participant. Her thoughts mostly revolve around what if she had tried harder, what if she had fought more, what if she could find another way out that didn't involve the death of all those people. Although there was very little she could have done to change the outcome, those what-ifs still plague her mind and, as a result of untreated trauma and PTSD, they have ended up as her daily nightmares. But chances are even if you catch her in the act thinking about it or in the midst of a nightmare, she'll try to spin her way out of it so good luck on that.

[ 🏆 ] is your muse afraid of failure ? what do they do when they fail ?

On a TREMENDOUS amount, yeah. Jo is TERRIFIED of failure ( hence why her being fired hit her so hard ) because most of the time it'd mean the loss of innocent lives. As a slayer, her job is to protect people and whether it's cause she gets overpowered by a big bad or something as small as arriving to the scene late, it stays with her. It haunts her even. But, it also makes her even more determined to win. As for her copying mechanisms when it comes to failure, it's very similar to her regrets; she internalizes them, and subconsciously allows them to become yet another weight to tear her down. But if you ask her about it, she'll probably say some sophisticated bullcrap that failure is an inescapable part of life and all that we can do about is accept it, even though, personally, she never has.

[ 💭 ] does your muse have imaginary friends ? did they have any as a child ?

Thankfully, never. Since in Buffyverse any instances of imaginary friends are tied to the presence of ghosts and Jo has grown up in a quite sheltered environment at home ( and an even more sheltered one at the school in England where things like that weren't taken lightly ), she hasn't had any encounters with them. Although, if she were to, the scoobies would most likely hunt it down before it could even leave behind a solid memory in her mind.

[ 🩹 ] what does your muse do to de-stress ?

What all slayers do; they beat the shit out of any demons who are unfortunate enough to cross their path. And since she tends to get extremely worked up in situations that cause her stress to begin with, she goes particularly hard on them. Otherwise, when people press her too much about it, she might snap at them ( and apologize later on because she'll feel bad about it ).

[dhampirslays]

Another fun headcanon: Whenever someone pisses her off, she makes supernatural wiki pages on them. For the most part she has pages for Angel, Spike and now for Klaus ( @paintedstory ) where she watches their daily life, types it down and sits back and watches as they freak out to find out what is happening. For Klaus, though, she goes to extreme. She monitors his daily life then writes it down on the wiki page at night to extreme detail and just enjoys the sight of him, driving himself into madness and paranoia over enemies that don’t exist. As a friend said, the devil works hard but jo works harder.

And since Hope Mikaelson likes to get on her nerves, she’s getting a wiki page too. It comes in handy now that she has her humanity switch off and is paranoid too.

[dhampirslays]

baby headcanon: jo has piercings ― lots of them. most of them are ear piercings although she does has a nose piercing that she almost never wears but when she does, it’s one of those little faux gems that shine like little diamonds. One trauma = one more piercing. Cause therapy is expensive but piercing yourself isn’t.

[dhampirslays]

I want to make a little PSA to say that Jo will always love Ethan but she is no longer IN love with him and I think that’s a healthy and realistic behaviour for two people who have been through as much as they have and altogether i think it’s BEAUTIFUL.

[dhampirslays]

I think a tiny headcanon I have for jo’s high school times was that, because slayers were required to be inherently tough, they got taught from a young age how to provide first aid to themselves or whoever else needed it. And under that mindset, whenever a slayer got too worn out / injured during their training, they had to stitch themselves up because the Watchers thought ‘tough love’ would be beneficial for later on in their lives.

Now imagine a 10 year old stitching up their wound all on their own and tell me Jo’s character traits don’t make sense to you.

[dhampirslays]

All of Jo’s headcanons are edgy and slayer/arena related but you want to know a headcanon on the dorky side? That Jo was born in America, surrounded by American family folks but was raised by an 1800s British guy who cusses bloody hell like it’s cherry candy. I believe there was a time in Jo’s early life, when she didn’t know what accent to take on first so you know what was her go to? American accent, british cussing. You can catch her going BLOODY HELL when things go to shit when she doesn’t have a single british bone in her body and I’m honestly so entertained by that idea.

[dhampirslays]

it’s cause she KNOWS she will fuck up okay ? Self awareness is never something she lacked.

WHAT TRAGIC CHARACTER FROM GREEK LITERATURE ARE YOU?

cassandra was the most beautiful of Priam’s daughters and the god apollo fell in love with her, cursed her, proclaiming that although she would be able to tell t he future accurately no one would believe her.

cassandra

you are cassandra from the trojan women by euripides and agamemnon by aeschylus. people have tried to silence you one too many times, but you are resilient. your own dignity and agency have always come first, but at a great cost. you know yourself and your inner strength, but that won't ever stop you from feeling completely alone in the world. sometimes simply enduring the pain won't be enough, no matter how hard you want it to be. above all, you must never lose your unwavering hope in mankind, even as the world forsakes you. it is what keeps you human.
