How the AFC Richmond guys proposed Part II

Here’s part two of this because I’m finally back in the mood for this sweet stuff.

Here’s Part I

Jan Maas

Blunt bitch.

Nobody ever said Jan was subtle.

Or if they did, they were lying out their ass.

It wasn’t entirely romantic, but it was entirely Jan.

You were talking about the days you both had while you made dinner together.

“Will you get the olive oil out of the fridge?” You asked him.

“Sure. Will you marry me?” He asked in return.

At first you didn’t process it, you just thanked him for the oil.

You actually poured out what you needed and set the bottle down before it hit you

“I’m sorry, what did you just say?”

“I asked you to marry me.”

You had exactly zero words as you watched him take the little velvet box out of his pocket and get on one knee. Your brain was buffering.

“What do you say?” He asks with that damn goofy smile on his face.

“I say fuck yes!” You answer excitedly.

Thierry Zoreaux

Thierry knew he wanted to marry you after your first date together

By date number 5, he was already planning the wedding in his head

By date number 10, he was imaging your family and future together.

But he was having a hard time making any of it happen.

He couldn’t seem to find the perfect ring: whenever he found one, he’d always find another that was a little better. It got old and discouraging. It made him feel like he didn’t really know you.

When he did finally find a ring, he ran into trouble planning the thing.

He thought about doing something big, but he didn’t want you to feel pressured. He thought about doing something private, but that wasn’t his style.

What he ended up doing was totally by accident.

He was so used to venting things to you; he vented his frustration about not being able to figure out the right moment.

Thierry didn’t even acknowledge that he’d said it until you’d asked him what he’d said several times.

He kinda just gave a little huff. “I just want to marry you! Why is that so hard?”

“My answer is yes.” You tell him with a cheerful grin.

“Is it? Even if I don’t do some fancy proposal?”

“Obviously!”

Roy Kent

He pulls the romance out of his ass to make sure it’s a nice, memorable night.

He planned a pleasant picnic at Nelson Road the day before a big game against Manchester.

As the sun set and you shared a drink, you noticed he was quieter than usual.

“What’s wrong, love?”

“Nothing.”

“You’re being quiet...er than you always are.”

He gave you a look for that little joke.

Unfortunately, he used all of his romance points to plan the night for you both and when it came time to actually pop the question, his mind was blank.

“I’ve just been thinking about us a lot.” He says. “What about us?” “Just, you know, that maybe we should get married soon.”

How this man says that so casually is a mystery because you choked on your drink just hearing it.

You actually ask him toHow id co repeat it because surely you misheard?

"I want to fucking marry you.” He says with an almost coy smile as he pulls out a ring that can really only be described as minimalist.

“I wasn’t sure what kind of ring you’d like because you don’t wear them that often, so I thought something more practical would be better.” He explained as he slid it on your finger hesitantly. “I can return it and get something else if you don’t like it though.” “It’s perfect, Roy.” You promise. “I love it, and you.”

Moe Bumbercatch

First of all, he proposed on New Year's Eve.

Everyone was at Nelson Road for a party and fireworks and a good time.

Not wanting you to feel pressured by doing it in front of everyone, he found some excuse for you to come back to the locker room.

He made small talk to calm his nerves so you knew something was up immediately.

This man waited until your back was turned to do it too.

“You know how I want to start the new year?” He asked after a few minutes of gathering his courage. “How’s that, love?” “Engaged to you.”

Your head has never snapped to look at him so fast, but by the time you were looking at him, he was kneeling and holding the ring out.

In his shaking hands, he held a silver ring with a raw, uncut stone on top. He had the most nervous smile on his face when he asked asked the question: “Will you marry me?”

Colin Hughes

How did Colin propose?

Probably/definitely by accident.

He was showering after a game and you were hanging out in the locker room since everyone else had finished and left.

You’d had a date scheduled for after.

He asked you to hand him his shirt and when you did, what should fall out but a little velvet box?

You actually didn’t give much of a second thought as you handed the little box back to him.

“What’s this babe?” “Hm? Oh the ring I’m gonna pro...pose... with... tonight...” He said. His words slowing as his brain caught up with his mouth.

You kind of just stare at each other for a minute after that.

“Whoops.” Is all he says to break the silence before asking: “so... will you marry me?” “Yes, obviously, love.” You beam.

“When I ask at dinner, will you pretend to be surprised? The guys are gonna be there to take pictures of it.” He says with a goofy grin. ���They’ll never know you blurted it out.” You promise happily.

[its-a-show-stoppin-number]

Random Ted Lasso headcanons because…why not:

Roy is an absolutely PHENOMENAL cook

On the other hand, Isaac can’t cook for shit like my guy burns water EXCEPT for breakfast foods. Isaac makes the best pancakes, waffles, French toast, etc.

Ted and Higgins both go to pride every year and wear a “Free Dad Hugs” shirt

When Frozen came out, Phoebe forced Roy to watch it so many times that he could’ve probably quoted it word for word (he took her to see Frozen 2 and ended up running into Trent and his daughter)

Whenever Trent’s daughter plays pretend with him and hands him an imaginary phone, he always comes up with the WILDEST scenarios for their game

One time at team karaoke (which became a pretty regular thing after the Everton F.C. match), Jamie and Colin sang Agony from Into the Woods and Jamie did the choreography (he definitely didn’t learn it because he rewatched the musical so. many. times. because he had a crush on Chris Pine *wink* *wink*)

Ted made the mistake of showing Me Before You at a team movie night one time and the entire team was sobbing by the end

Bumbercatch is the jumpiest mf ever but LOVES horror movies

One of Jamie’s favorite movies is Dead Poets Society and his favorite character was Neil (he was inconsolable when he watched it the first time and Neil died)

Beard knew about Trent’s crush on Ted and teased him about it every time he got flustered around Ted

The only times Roy isn’t the princess when he plays Princess and Dragon with Phoebe is when Jamie plays with her (Roy has SO MANY pictures of Jamie dressed as the princess on his phone and one is his wallpaper)

We all know that Jamie’s bi awakening was Roy and Keeley but Will’s was Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher in the Star Wars movies

Will was raised by a single mom who he loves more than anything (I saw someone else hc this and it makes so much sense)

Bumbercatch LOVES Buzzfeed Unsolved True Crime/BU Supernatural and low key religiously listens to a true crime podcast

[ramorazinn]

My wife sent me this

and i had to think of something to say that was not “OMG Moe Bumbercatch”

(All these Olympics B-plots are giving me Ted Lasso headcanons/plotbunnies like… the Muffin Man is clearly Jamie but is the choccy muffin something Roy has made for him, or something Simon/a venue/a restaurant makes that Jamie is using to egg Roy on to make ever more elaborate attempts to try and best it?)

I am unwell send help

[coolpointsetta]

my personal headcanons (not really founded in any canon events i just think they’re neat)

- isaac has only sisters and has picked up habits from them. most common: when he’s searching for something, he always grabs his moobs

- everyone else has picked up the habit, so whenever someone loses something in the locker room they all grab their moobs and search

- moe is banned from the reichstag building in germany (nobody knows why and nobody dares ask how)

- dani collects squishmellows, brings a different one to each away game

- jan and richard have keys to each others places and it’s not a surprise if they come home and the other is eating their snacks

- thierry sleep talks, the team has a running challenge to see who can make him say the craziest shit before he walks up

- beard can (and frequently does) sleep standing up, scares the shit out of everyone

- rene (sewer man) knows the underground, but somehow will the kitman found a way into the building through the vents

- moe got an online certification to be ordained, whenever the team drinks he always tries to marry people off

- roy’s got his yoga moms, and jamie’s in a book mom club. they meet every sunday and read anything from hardcore porn to the classics

[thetarttfuldickhead]

So if team board game night rotates, who would pick which game?

Jamie, somewhat surprisingly perhaps, tend to bring out trivia games. Things often get heated on those nights because the boys argue over the correct answers a lot. Jamie himself tends to do shockingly well in some categories and insanely, horrendously bad in others; his knowledge is spotty, to say the very least. He gets a kick out of arguing his absurdly wrong answer even after he gets they're wrong, and he gets incredibly smug when they hit upon a category that he can surprise everyone by being super knowledgeable about.  

Dani is a fan of Dixit because the pictures are gorgerous, and you get to make up tiny little stories, like poetry! He very rarely wins, however, because his associations just run very differently than the others. Dani doesn’t care, though; it’s the joy of playing that matters.

Sam alternates between table top roleplaying games (preferably in a fantasy setting because he loves magic!) and word games (which he is fucking brilliant at but which he knows that Jamie doesn’t really like, so he mostly saves them for evenings when our No. 9 can’t join them).

Colin likes a bit of everything but makes a point of bringing Welsh made games because Welsh pride they include Welsh names that no one else knows how to pronounce, that’s just an extra bonus. In fairness to the boys, they all do their very best with the pronounciation and does not mind Colin shaking his head at their efforts. Well, he only shakes his head at the English players, and then him and Jan Maas bond over how hard some people appearantly find it so very hard to make simple sounds.

Isaac arranges poker nights. He’s got a room for it at his house and all, and always dresses for the occasion. Once in a while, when they’ve really got time, he brings out Risk and all hell breaks loose. (Isaac is the Worst when it comes to snacks, though, so Richard has taken it upon himself to make sure there’s drinks and appropriate niblets. That way, Richard also get to claim co-host rights and gets out of having the team over to his place, which he just thinks is too fancy for this lot. Also, Richard doesn’t really care for board games.)

Bumbercatch is into cooperative board games, especially if the goal is to work together to solve some sort of real world issue, like Pandemic. Uniting rather than tearing each other down is the way to go if they ever want to overthrow the unjust world order!

Jan Maas also enjoys cooperative board games, except he tends to opt for the ones that include traitors (like Unfathomable), because it’s just fun to watch the rest of the team succumb to paranoia and chaos. Mafia is good too! Jan Maas tends to do well in those games because he takes full advantage of the fact that everyone expects him to be very blunt, making it easy for him to get away with lies.

Zorro is a Card Against Humanity guy. Those nights are rowdy and loud affairs, and the coaches (Roy in particular) don’t like it all that much, because it invariably lead to the team shouting weird fucking phrases and sniggering about it the day after.

The coaches aren’t invited to these things, but if they were Nate would have the team play the most elaborate strategy games and he would crush. them. ever. single. time.

Musical Episode of Ted Lasso

I’m Still Standing, Elton John

Sung by Jamie, very dramatic obviously. I feel like he’d be singing while running through Richmond or something

Sway, Michael Bublé

Sung by Dani, complete with an insane dance number featuring his two girlfriends (?)

I’ll Make a Man Out of You, Mulan

Sung by Roy, featuring the team. No seriously go watch this on youtube and imagine it’s the team. Them walking onto the pitch to the intro?? So good. Anyways these parts sung by these characters.

Don’t Go Breaking My Heart, Elton John/Kiki Dee

Sung by Jamie, Roy, and Keeley. I feel like Jamie and Keeley start it off singing to Roy/each other and Roy is like 😐 and eventually they sing “don’t go breaking my heart” together and Roy is like “I won’t go breaking your heart” 🙄

please add songs you think would be in it 🙏 i’m so curious

[fallenangelontheceiling]

tell me your headcanons about what each of the Richmond players do on their days off

[tobebbanburg]

jamie sam bestieism, colin isaac bestieism, jan richard bestieism..who's bumbercatch's bestie??

Bumbercatch’s bestie isn’t any of the players: it’s Gail, the physio. Each of his physio sessions is just their “true crime” club where they discuss their latest podcast/compare murder boards. Bumbercatch is the only player she’ll take her earphones out for, and she’s the only member of the Richmond team that knows what his bachelor’s degree is in. They learn how to pick locks together and get bloody marys every other Sunday because they think it’s funny.

[carothehotmess]

I saw this gif set by @kamillahn of the team all exiting the bus after the Man City win, and one gif in particular caught my attention.

Specifically this one:

And now I have this headcanon that Bumbercatch and Will are secretly best friends.

Like they meet up each morning and flip a coin to see who gets to say the most out of pocket thing in the locker room that day. Or on days off, they go on adventures to really weird places, like faerie circles or famous execution sites, or that they will regularly, yet accidentally, stumble onto some thing/place ancient and just never tell anyone. They’ve made vows with old gods and conversed with the dead.

Or that they sometimes set up a stand at the Sunday farmers market where its buy 1 get 1 piece of advice, but like they each give wildly different advice. Like some woman walks up and explains how she’s struggling with mentoring someone in a new career field, and Will gives somewhat specific yet atmospheric advice, like “A teacher can open the door, but only the student can choose to walk through it.” And the woman looks to Bumbercatch, who says, “Your new career won’t even exist after the impending societal breakdown, so just do your best for now and maybe pick up some more useful hobbies on the side.” And their only payment is for “a piece of produce that resonates with you.” So at the end of the market they have a basket of assorted, weirdly shaped fruits and veggies that they bring to training.

Feel free to share whatever headcanons you have about Will Kitman and Moe Bumbercatch (individually or as a pair) in the tags or comments bc I need to know that other people also think they would be a very entertaining pair

AFC Richmond as dads

Should all of them be dads? Probably not, but that won’t stop me from indulging myself.

Jan Maas

He is over the moon excited about it.

He’s almost as happy as he is scared shitless (but you’d never know he was scared).

As soon as he’s able to, he’s bringing that baby to Nelson Road to introduce them to everyone.

He even brought everyone the traditional beschuit met Muisjes to announce your baby.

He’s a pretty goofy dad, very playful and amusing for them.

Thanks to his height, your child misses nothing (but the same can’t be said for the people behind him.)

Jan has a very loose approach to parenting. He likes to let them make mistakes so they can learn from them.

Of course he’s there when they need and want him but he isn’t going to be over protective. They’re gonna fall when learning to walk or riding a bike and they’re gonna make mistakes.

Jan doesn’t want a perfect kid, just his kid is good enough.

Isaac McAdoo

Fucking Isaac.

He’s the exact opposite of Jan in the sense that he’s very overly cautious but about the wrong things.

He’s a nervous wreck about them learning to walk and run because he worries about them getting hurt but he’s also not good at remembering to latch cabinets closed or even close doors all the way.

He loves the baby with every fiber of his being but once they learn to walk it’s game over.

That child and any others are going to run laps around him.

He really thought he’d be able to keep up.

Bribes with Rolos.

He lives to see the two of you at the games.

Twins with the baby every so often and he had a special onesie made that looks like his jersey.

Sam Obisanya

He’s gentle.

He’s the parent who has full on conversations with the babbling infant.

Bedtime stories every night.

He doesn’t enjoy putting the baby down, his favorite thing is when he’s relaxing and the baby is just on his chest/in his lap.

Sam is all about the bonding experiences, he wants to have as good of a relationship with his child(ren) as he does with his own father. He wants to be the best father he can be.

His face really lights up when someone, anyone, asks about how you and the baby are doing and there is no off button for that.

Richard Montlaur

Another parent who has full-blown conversations with the baby.

He’s about halfway on the strictness spectrum.

Richard really wants them to be able to do things and learn on their own within reason, like he was raised.

But that being said, the second they’re old enough, he is taking them to his parents farm to show them everything.

He can be a goofy dad but he prefers to do it in the privacy of your flat.

In all honesty, he gets a solid B/B+ for his parenting skills.

He does have to call his parents a lot for advice because when it’s just him and the baby, he doubts himself.

Jamie Tartt

Scared. Shitless.

Jamie would rather jump off the London bridge than risk doing something to mess up the kid so he’s incredibly overly cautious.

He calls his dad for advice.

I’m just fucking around. He’d rather move to Texas than call his father for parenting advice. He actually calls Ted.

And side note, Ted answers every single time. He answers all of Jamie’s questions no matter how stupid they may or may not be.

Jamie holds the baby as they’re made of glass because for the longest time he’s afraid just breathing wrong will make the baby hate him or mess them up.

He has so much love for the child but for the longest time its overshadowed by his anxiety.

Once he gets a hold on the anxiety though, he’s just the ultimate girl dad. 

He excels whether or not he thinks so and that baby loves him.

Dani Rojas

Dani is the most fun parent.

There’s no crying fit he can’t stop.

And thank god for it.

He’s more than happy to take the night shift unless he has a game the next day, which is fair.

He really enjoys singing the songs his mother sang to him when he was a growing up.

He gets a little lost sometimes, but his hearts always in the right place. 

He has high hopes they’ll like football and want to be around it, he really wants to bond over it but he won’t force it.

Thierry Zoreaux

He's kind of nervous because he’s so far from home and he always thought he’d raise his children around where he was raised so they can have the same experiences he did growing up.

He’s the one who reads parenting books and goes to the preparation classes.

This man is ready for everything.

He takes a logical approach when it comes to making decisions about the baby.

The most illogical thing he does is buy baby yeezys. Multiple pairs of tiny little yeezy shoes that he can match with his own.

Moe Bumbercatch

First of all, Moe knits so many blankets and booties and little toys for the baby its unreal.

He spends the entire pregnancy knitting things, including a little miniature version of his jersey to put on the baby’s teddy bear.

He likes to take the baby out and about to show them the city. 

Moe isn’t the best at keeping a schedule because he’s so easily distracted but he tries his best, he’s gotten a little better.

He truly enjoys playing with the baby and bonding and being a dad.

He loves being a footballer, he loves being a partner, and he loves being a dad. 

He’s good at keeping calm when things get hectic, and they do sometimes, but he always manages a level head. 

Colin Hughes

He’s not allowed to put the baby in the Lamborghini. It’s too much car for him.

He’s very fun, very active, very present overall.

He’s good at making the baby laugh and his camera roll proves as much.

Colin has the time of his life with the baby around.

He’s a good lad, great with any child you give him.

A+ in child rearing with a D in driving.

8/10 times he falls asleep with the baby on his chest but 100% of the time he will wake up if you take the baby to put in their bassinet 

Tag Team: @bdffkierenwalker​ @anarchistbeauty​​ @tsundere-cherry-girl​

[fruity-phrog]

This is a headcanon I will die for. 

Trent clocked Colin immediately and wasn’t surprised when he saw him kissing Michael. If anything, he was glad his gaydar was correct. 

He was surprised Colin was kissing Michael, though, because he was so sure Colin was head over heels for Moe Bumbercatch.

In (I Don’t Want To Go To) Chelsea, Trent walks by Colin and Moe talking, and later in the locker room they are sitting next to each other. And Colin canonically finds Moe attractive. So Trent, with his spot-on gaydar, immediately assumes Colin is practically in love with him. And so the main shock the next episode was the fact that Colin was actually in a relationship and wasn’t just lamenting about his unreciprocated love for Moe while listening to Taylor Swift.
