Michelle, Marvel, & Pride 25

Link to questions.

What sort of pride apparel do you think the characters would wear/have, if any?

Joey Gutierrez: He has a wristband he wears often enough, and for pride month he wears a bit more stuff. He wears things like backpacks with rainbow straps and a shirt with the gay flag (holy heck I just realized his sexuality is never confirmed as solely gay. He could be bi or something, but I'm pretty sure he is gay).

Peggy Carter: I don't know enough about queer history. She would have something subtle from her time period. Very subtle. This is a time where it was illegal for homosexuals to have federal jobs, such as director of S.H.I.E.L.D. But more recently, I like to think Sharon gave her a little bookmark or something colored like the bisexual flag.

Valkyrie: If she was on Earth, I think she would look really nice with thread braided into her hair to make a bisexual flag. It would look super pretty.

Ayo: Again, I don't know how pride is celebrated in Wakanda, but if there is anything, that's what she would do. I get the vibes from her that she'd like have rainbows on social media or something though.

Loki Laufeyson: He would have some clothes in the colors of the greyromantic, pansexual, and asexual flags, but not straight out the flags. And he'd have a couple of easy to hide apparel, things like this.

Also, I like to imagine Scott doing a card trick in front of him, joking that he can do magic too. Loki is interested (because he's being nice) and he finds it funny that Scott insists on showing him a bunch of ace cards. So Scott starts jokingly buying him stuff with aces of spades, and Loki is down because that is ace as heck.

Bucky Barnes: He has lots of shirts, flags, and all sorts of stuff. I like to think he has rainbow laces he wears with his shoes. He has lots of things that, even if they aren't explicitly queer, give him vibes. Things like the purple lava lamp he found on clearance and a red, purple, and teal tie dye shirt he found at a thrift shop. They aren't mean to be greysexual or bisexual, but they give off the vibes.

Wanda Maximoff: She'd have things with all the flags that apply to her. Those being abrosexual, bisexual, pansexual, aromantic, and asexual. On days where she's aroace, she'll wear her aroace stuff. Pan stuff on pan days. You get the point. And she wears her abrosexual stuff all of the time. She has things like rings, denim jacket with the flags ironed on, maybe shoes kind of like these.

Lance Hunter: He has a watch with a bisexual flag band that he wears a lot. And he likes to throw in bi stuff or rainbow stuff wherever he can. Things like the soles of his shoes being rainbow or his jacket being lined with bi colors.

Daisy Johnson: She does her make up in bi and demi colors, but that's mainly during pride month. Normally, she has a bracelet like the one I had pictured with Loki. She has a T-shirt that says something like "Inhuman, Queer, & Proud" she got because there are starting to be queer inhuman groups.

Jemma Simmons: She'll dress in pink, purple, and blue as a subtle bi flag. In June, Daisy does her make up sometimes. Jemma has cute little decorations she'll have, like a cup in bi colors to hold pencils or her phone's wallpaper as a cool pink to blue ombre with stars or something. Her and Fitz have matching bi wristbands someone got them as a wedding gift.

Leopold Fitz: He has the bi wristband same as Jemma. Other than that? I don't see him being the type of person to do all sorts of flag or pride or whatever stuff. He's heteroromantic bisexual, that's all. Part of it is that he doesn't want to be given crap for being varioriented ("you can f*ck a guy but not fall in love" sort of bs), but even if he was biromantic and bisexual, it's just not really his thing, so have a bunch of random colorful things shouting to the world that he's queer when he prefers to keep this very, very private.

Steve Rogers: Steve has bi and rainbow gear, but it's not something he normally wears. More of a pride thing.

Carol Danvers: She changes her suit to the lesbian flag for pride month! Outside of that, she seems like a person to wear lesbian flag socks. Which is totally random and idk if those even exist, but I get the vibes.

Peter Parker: MJ bought him some bi pins that he has saved in his room. He has some general mspec ones he wears around, that make him look supportive of hims omnisexual girlfriend, and he also can be secretly proud of his bisexuality. He also has an mspec solidarity shirt he only wears at home, with MJ, with Ned, or with Tony. It has bisexual, pansexual, polysexual, omnisexual, abrosexual, and other flags and has some phrase about them all being friendly.

MJ Watson: She'd wear lots of omnisexual and mspec pins. Omni for her, and mspec for her and Peter. She'd have a pair of black doc martens that she doesn't wear often but have rainbow laces. She also has a plaid shirt with the omnisexual colors.

Tess: Again, sad day, she doesn't really have anything for pride.

Sam Wilson: Most of his stuff is rainbow things. He was pretty certain he was queer but didn't know in what way, so he only got rainbow stuff for a long time. And he isn't in a spot where he's comfortable to come out as aromantic, so he just says he's queer. But he has an aro flag on the boat, and a tiny little aro flag magnet he keeps on the wings.

Mantis: Gamora gave her a bunch of whatever the galaxy terms to be ace stuff.

Nebula: Someone on Earth would buy her this shirt as a joke.

And the tank top, and the mug, and the short sleeved shirt, and the 3 quarters sleeved shirt, and the hoodie, and anything they can find with this.

That same person also gets a million things (this time including a bumper sticker they put on her ship) with this design or similar.

Vision: Dude can literally make his own clothes pop out of nowhere. He makes himself a non-binary cape sometimes. He also has a couple of enby gifts from Wanda

Easy Love

First in the proposal series. 1/4. Please enjoy. 

It was his fault and he knew it, but that wasn't going to stop Luke from blaming everyone else. It his her mother and her from the throat Minnesota accent's fault since she wouldn't give them more than six minutes alone at a time. She had their entire visit scheduled with meeting extended family members, going to random steakhouses including an Outback, and going to Cagneys's nephews lessons which were so boring that now Luke was blaming them too. Her dad also had a stake in the situation, Luke thought. Brent Bloom in his head to toe denim made no secret how disappointed he was that his daughter had been dating a musician. Cagney had always told Luke to not take it personally as her dad had been upset when she first moved away to England at 18 and then was just as cross when she chose to give up her loyal clientele for working as a hairstylist for 5 Seconds of Summer despite the creative doors it opened for her. Luke barely heard her though. It was hard to not take things personally when even after he worked up the courage to ask Brent for his blessing to ask Cagney to marry him, he still brought up her only other boyfriend, some guy named Guy that had come out as gay around their high school graduation.

Luke sat fuming on a tattered plaid chesterfield backstage at the stadium in Pennsylvania they were in. He watched Cagney take to Michael's fried hair with both hands, but he couldn't stop picturing Minnesota and how things were supposed to have gone. He completely missed what the guitarist had said to him through the mirror because he was too busy hating Cagney's oldest brother in her mind. Griffin Bloom. Griffin Bloom and his chewing tobacco breath, his screaming baby and annoying five year old son, and his effortless penchant for taking shots at Luke's inability to do conventionally masculine tasks even though Cagney kept pointing out how dated that thinking was. He supposed her other siblings weren't that bad, twins Arden and Wagner. Arden was quiet and seemed as disinterested in Luke as she did her own family which he could respect. She looked like Cagney, but if Cagney looked perpetually bored. Wagner was nice enough as well, but he was barely around. Between having his son all weekend and working through his last year of law school, Wagner somehow managed to squeeze his way out of the Bloom's morning to midnight agenda. Luke realized that he didn't hate Wagner, he was just very jealous of the single dad.

The plan was going to be a hole in one. Cagney was always homesick for her mother's hugs and pot roast. She talked almost poetically about Edina, Minnesota and growing up there with her close knit family. Luke had carried the 3 karat princess cut ring designed and created by Simone Telford-Irwin everywhere they went, even to The Outback Steakhouse. He had every intention of asking her in front of her family, but there was never a moment good enough with their personalities gnawing on Luke's nerves. He ended up bringing the ring and Cagney back on tour after their short hiatus. He was sour now and not engaged like he told his brothers back home in Australia he would be. Luke had told himself before going to visit Cagneys's family that he could handle being related to them. It was worth it to be with the beautiful girl. Besides it wasn't like he had to see them very often. If they were to come visit in Sydney, California, London, or wherever he and Cagney chose to set up, Luke knew he would just put them all up in a hotel. The enormous bill would be worth the privacy and space.

Shaking himself out of his bitter and disappointed bubble, Luke watched as Grace entered the room with a Diet Pepsi in hand, drinking it through a straw. She waved to Luke before going over to hug Cagney and then sit right on Michael's lap. Cagney had learned how to cut and/or style Mike's hair with her view blocked whether it was because Michael and Grace were making out or in the middle of sparring. Luke wished he had Mike's situation though. He didn't have any in laws to deals with. Grace didn't speak to her mother as far as Luke knew and she didn't make it a secret that her Dad had fucked off around the time her little sister was born. Hell, Luke would have loved to switch places with Ashton. the Telford family adored him as their own. They were too busy to bother them constantly, they were loaded and connected so nothing about Ashton's life was worth teasing over to them. Luke didn't really know much about Skye's family life, but she was Canadian so he assumed her family was really nice and tapped maple trees every morning before breakfast.

"Yo, you're up." Michael smacked Luke on the shoulder from behind the couch, shaking him out of his mental tunnel. Luke had no idea it was the third time Mike had called for him. He swallowed the mindless sip of beer he had taken and nodded until he was up on his feet.

"Do whatever you want, G, but don't mess up his hair!" Cagney warned as she set aside her clippers for a sanitized pair. She trusted that Michael and Grace were going to be fondling one another until they were on stage, recently engaged themselves and constantly searching for corners to make out in. "She's totally going to mess up his hair." Cagney frowned at her boyfriend. She wanted a single show this tour to not have Michael wearing a ball cap, but she was learning that might be a pipe dream.

Luke kissed her quickly, just a peck, before settling into the chair that Michael had made warm. He ignored his view in the mirror and out his beer down between her brushes on the counter in front of them. The noise outside in the hallway drowned out the music playing in the dressing room, so Cagney cleared her throat and spoke above it all.

"I know the break wasn't what you had in mind." They hadn't had a chance to talk about it yet since they slept on their flight to Pennsylvania from Minnesota and Luke had been with friends or in sound check all morning. "Next time, I will visit on my own." She did appreciate that he had come and told him that over a dozen times.

"It's fine, Keg." They had already talked about it and it just only reminded Luke that her hadn't proposed because he had been in too miserable a mood while there. "I know you love it there and that's worth it for me." He wanted it to be true. She was still wearing her Minnesota Twins sweatshirt and that told Luke that he had done the right thing by visiting her home with her. She spent all her time in his schedule and tending to his dreams, four days with her family was the least he could do.

"They don't mean to make you feel uncomfortable." Cagney felt confident that her parents intentions were benevolent. She just grew up so differently than Luke had and so had they. The idea of some Australian rock star splitting a Bloomin' Onion with them and their 90 something mothers was out of the realm of possibility before Cagney brought Luke home a couple years prior.

"Cagney, it's fine." Sighing, he tried to end the conversation. "We can't choose our families." Luke did feel like he really lucked out with his, but he knew Cagney felt she did as well. "Well, we can, but you know what I mean..."

Nodding silently, Cagney agreed and then ran her fingers through his hair to find where she wanted to trim. It wasn't an unusual motion for her. Both she and Luke always found themselves using their fingers like combs on one another. He was wearing his hair long, but Cagney still liked to keep the ends from splitting like poorly kept makeup brushes.

Through the mirror, Luke noticed Ashton making faces at him. He was mouthing something aggressively, but Luke could barely make it out. Through reflex, Luke whipped his head around to see Ashton properly causing Cagney to almost chop off a whole chunk of his hair that she had just sprayed with water.

"Whoa, careful." She warned and checked behind her at Ashton who stood still as soon as Cagney began to turn and see him.

"Sorry." Luke coughed out once he sat properly for her again.

"I thought I had broken you of your squirming." She shook her head around, perfectly blown out locks bouncing above her sweatshirt covered shoulders. They chuckled lightly in unison, recalling how eyes first met when Luke was in London recording and in desperate need of a haircut. He took his friends advice and made an appointment at the Sassoon salon on Mercer, requesting the American blond his buddy swore by. Luke was constantly moving around, but since a good portion of Cagney's clients were small children, she knew how to adjust his posture and keep him still enough that he still had even lines in the end. It wasn't until his fifth appointment with her that she told him out loud to stop moving around like he had ants in his skintight jeans.

"Old habits die hard." Luke winked at her through the mirror, spotting Ashton again miming a proposal. He had been married under a year himself and highly recommended the decision to anyone who would listen. Ashton had never departed cloud number nine since meeting Simone through Cagney. He wasted no time getting down on one knee. He knew as soon as she had him over for dinner that the British jewelry designer was for him. Luke squirmed again, making Cagney laugh with a playful eye roll, but Luke didn't stop. He sat up and walked away from her, over to the couch where his satin bomber jacket was discarded. She just assumed he wanted his phone, often teasing him that he was addicted to the device.

"You know that Jay told me you'd never go out with me?" Checking his pocket, Luke folded his jacket over his arm and informed her of their mutual friend, her former client. "He said you were too good for me."

It was news to the hairstylist, Cagney frowned at the info and scratched at her face with the pick side of her comb, "That's really rude. What does that even mean?"

"No. He's right. So is your oldest brother," Fucking Griffin. "You are too good for me," Up until she finally agreed to stay the night with him, Luke had assumed she was dressed by chirping bluebirds every morning. Simone always called Cagney 'The Last Unicorn', a heart so rooted in the right place that you couldn't come by them anymore, all others had been broken. Luke knew that rumors proceeded him and plenty of people warned her that he was a player, but she never let that influence the love she gave him and he was thankful for that. "But you love me anyway."

Shaking her head, Cagney disagreed. She put down the comb and locked her hands in the pouch of her fitted sweatshirt, "You're very easy to love." She assured him as she had many times since before they even officially began to date.

"You are patient with me and forgiving even when I don't deserve it." Luke laughed, thinking about how he had called her brother 'a fucking moron' when Cagney approached him hiding behind the bed of her Dad's Chevy pick up, sneaking a smoke during a self-appointed break from her family's midnight round of charades. "You are my favorite part of the day even when you tweeze my brows." Making her laugh he came closer and then pulled his jacket on before leaning in and kissing her hard enough to pull her closer by the bottom lip, his hand sliding around to her back. "I wanted to do this in front of your family, but then your mom made a jab about my hair - "

"She thought she was - " Cagney began to defend her chatty Cathy of a mom, but Luke getting down on his knee in front of her shut her right up. "Huh?"

"Cagney June Bloom, will you marry me?" Grinning up at her, exposing all his teeth, Luke was glad he worked up the hopefulness and nerve to ask her. It was better this way. It was the two of them, the way he preferred it. In the pocket of his jacket, he pulled out the custom made ring and nearly blinded them both when it caught the glow of the vanity light she set up for her station.

Cagney just stared at Luke, tightening her neck. They both hadn't noticed Ashton right in the middle of the doorway watching with adoring eyes or the sound of the first Green Day album playing around them.

"Absolutely!" She bent down in front of him on both her knees and threw her arms around him. Her hands were shaking as she held out her left, Luke sliding it onto the designated finger as she paused from kissing him. He was lucky that Simone already knew Cagney's ring size and Luke didn't have to do any sneaky checking while Cagney was sleeping.

Both their smiles matched, stabbing through their cheeks while they laughed and kissed again. Luke was about to pull them up onto their feet when Ashton ran in and engulfed them both in a hug, his arms stretching out as wide as they could and keeping them down on the ground. It was ten minutes until they were supposed to be on stage, but none of the three cared. They didn't want to leave the dressing room and have to wait to celebrate how happy they felt.

Cagney watched the entire show from the side of the stage, clutching her heavier hand by the wrist and dancing. Usually, she went back to the hotel or hung out with crew backstage as she had seen the band perform on a daily basis, but this time she was watching her fiance. It was the first time and it felt brand new somehow. She didn't care what others thought, she knew that Luke was worth all the compromises, noise, and chaos. She knew what he wanted when the concerts were over and the music was turned off. She knew who he was outside of the designer jackets and alone in a hotel room in front of a stupid comedy movie. She was going to love both sides of him for the rest of her life because she was lucky.

[seven-oomen]

So today’s moments of random thoughts (and attempts at including links) are brought to you by the fact that today they replaced the back office computer at work that controls the store’s music, so it was uncomfortably silent for several hours, meaning that my brain suddenly had to provide the soundtrack again, and that’s always a total craps shoot.  Will it be 48 hours straight of “Toss A Coin To Your Witcher”?  Will it be some surreal all day medley of AC/DC, Rihanna, and the South Park version of “Pokerface”?  Will it be a non-stop Disney sing-a-long?  Who knows?  Everyday is an adventure with an ADD brain jukebox. 

One of today’s tracks of choice was “Little Red Riding Hood” by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs, a favorite since long before I was old enough to understand the implications or subtext.  And since you enjoyed the last terrible porn scenario so much, why not throw out another classic?  Because there is NO WAY they haven’t done this one.  Like.  Just no way.  Oh no, will the brave and daring young hunter woodsman manage to subdue the wily Alpha wolf, or will poor innocent Omega Riding Hood be devoured by the lustful lupine?  (I think the only correct answer here is yes to both.)  And because part of me wondered if such a thing even existed (I just had to know if I could bring in the plaid), I searched Google and found this (for a more casual approach) or this (for if they’re feeling fancy) for Noah, preferably paired with some tall black combat boots, perhaps (also, just saying, both would be a great option for a chase night).  For “Grandma”, I was thinking something along these lines (theoretically demure, yet also highlighting the collar bones, especially if unbuttoned slightly and allowed to slide off one shoulder.  Perhaps in the blue to bring out his eyes. XD ) because it comes across innocent in all the ways Peter would very much not be at that point.  All Chris would really need is his tightest jeans, deepest v’d henley, and maybe a nice denim or suede trucker jacket.  (Have I spent WAY too much time thinking about this?  Probably, but in my defense it kept me from snapping at all the idiots out without masks who refused to properly distance.  So.)  And because why the hell, not, I haven’t confused my Google search enough yet, here’s a couple of options for Chris that are a little more classy, as far as such a thing can apply to an outfit like this.  I mean if the other two are getting nice, quality outfits in that scenario, dammit he deserves the same.

Oh, and to briefly segue it back towards the more serious (and god, I really hope this comes out the way I mean it to, I am legit terrible at trying to word stuff like this), I would just like to say that frankly this version of how the physical/biological/however you want to phrase it aspects of the male/female vs alpha/omega spectrums play out makes so much more sense than a majority of the a/b/o I’ve seen.  I may not read it often, but I’ve been in fandom too long (and in a few too many small ones) not to have read a fair amount.  There have been a number of times where I just end up going “…his body has/did what now?…"  Whereas with yours it’s just like "oh, cool, that makes total sense”.  It’s natural, logical, and easy to understand, unlike my first few experiences back in the day when I kept having to Google the whole Omegaverse concept (a TERRIBLE idea, btw) to try and figure out how things worked.  So, yeah, I, at least, am a fan of this variation/interpretation/whatever.

Anyway…having hopefully managed to avoid cramming my whole entire foot into my mouth, would you care for some more assorted headcanons?  Maybe one day Stiles and Noah are in the attic working on sorting and organizing some things (Stiles is about 14 or 15 at this point), and after going through a couple boxes of Claudia’s sketchbooks, he finds one that contains a few mangled pairs of fishnets, a mesh shirt or two, maybe a pair of extremely short black cutoffs, some studded bracelets and collars, and he’s just like “man, Mom was a little more hardcore than I would have guessed."  After a couple moments of pointed silence, Noah finally offers ”…that’s not your Mom’s stuff, Stiles" while very determinedly not looking his son’s direction.  Cue a hysterical sequence of microexpressions of shock and horror contorting Stiles’ face, culminating in a brief full body flail and ending with him shaking his head with all the intense desperation of someone trying to clear an Etch-A-Sketch, before he just quietly goes back to sorting through the other boxes and they just never speak of it again.  Alternately, I would accept this same scenario for Chris and Allison (thinking the box had belonged to Kate), because I feel she would have the next best reaction faces to Stiles (less grimacing, but more internal screaming), with basically the same end result.  Or perhaps both had an incident like this, and they use it as some sort of bonding moment.  They’re an odd family after all.

 Don’t think I didn’t notice that the preview changed again.  Just going straight for the feels this time, huh?  God, poor Peter.  I feel so bad that he’s missing out on all the cuddles (familial and romantic), but I’m sure they’ll all be more than willing to make it up to him later.  Really hope he was doing that super speed thing on the way back to the hospital, or the Sheriff’s station might get some strange reports of a naked man running through neighborhoods.  

On the subject of the kids and education, I would vote BioChem for Allison.  It would be useful in learning about all the stuff hunters use, and figuring out ways to combat them, as well as potentially offering some overlap with Lydia’s degree.

I’d vote Criminal Law for Jackson.  It would be both a nod to his adoptive dad in the show having been the D.A. and offer a connection to the traditions of the family he’s just now learning about.  And I suspect that it’s entirely possible that if Stiles went after a Criminal Justice degree (or similar, I’m not entirely sure what it would be called), they’d likely have some overlapping classes, which would just piss Stiles all the hell off.  So win-win, really.

I think Malia could do really well with either type of Engineering.  I want to lean more towards Mechanical, particularly for the auto repair aspect, but part of me really wants Electrical for the Ant-Man connection (speaking of high Intelligence, low Wisdom…)  I think she would hate it while she was getting the degree (WHY DID NO ONE WARN ME THERE’D BE SO MUCH MATH???!!!), she’d be so proud once she’d graduated.  I feel like I could see Derek partnering with her on the shop (he’s working on a Master’s in Business.  Anything Law just felt too close to what he’d lost, but he also couldn’t bear to stray too far.  So, business.  Eventually I think he’d join in with the artsy side of the family and go after a degree in Design, so he could help build up the shop that way, as well.)

Totally agree on the other two.  I can also totally see Kira and Malia coaching some sort of intramural sport for kids one day.  Soccer (football), Little League, Lacrosse, doesn’t matter which.  They absolutely love it, and the kids love them (they totally get the smaller Pack kids involved, too).  Eventually they talk Isaac into creating a team for some of his kids that are looking to socialize more (they make sure that the experience is 100% positive for any of them that play.  They refuse to tolerate any bullying or poor sportsmanship of any kind.)

Hmm…not sure about the others, either, but I like the idea of Boyd ending up as a professor of Mythology and Folklore.  He was the one that actually thought about whether he wanted the bite, and whether it would be worth it in the long run.  He seemed the most interested in the reality of being a werewolf.  I can see him learning as much as he can about the supernatural from Peter and Noah (and some of the other side of things from Chris), and utilizing that in getting his degree (and eventual Doctorate).  And let’s face it, after dealing with the Pack’s shenanigans over the years, college kids aren’t intimidating in the slightest.

And before I forget, may I just say that “People buy it because it’s Tumblr, why wouldn’t two gay dads run a wolf rescue?” had me laughing so hard I started snorting.  Moving on; I know you recently shared a post that featured shots from the episode where Stiles gets his dad drunk to distract him from reopening the Hale case (I have Opinions about that black shirt, and how disappointed I was that it Never Showed Up Again, so I notice when it pops up in Tumblrs I check, okay?  Don’t judge me.), and some of the other blogs I try to keep up with have shared some pics of J.R. in glasses, and now I can’t help but wonder if that becomes like a Thing for Peter at some point.  Like, once they start to get a little older (once Chris has grown out his beard again, and maybe Noah has retired [my uncle was a cop and retired in like his mid-forties, I think] and started letting his hair get just a bit shaggy again) and his husbands start occasionally wearing glasses for reading, or fine detail work, etc.  (I would not judge him if it did, because, uh…, hard same.  I blame too many years of anime.)  Like, they slip them on and his brain just immediately starts going to more terrible porn scenarios.  Stern librarian, called to the principal/headmaster’s office, courtroom shenanigans.  Actually, if Peter is supposed to have been a lawyer they probably do that one anyway.  The Prosecution and the Defense take turns attempting to sway the Judge/Jury Foreman in their favor.  Who is who just depends on their mood at the time, and who feels willing to put on a suit (god help Peter if he gets both his mates in well cut suits and at their persuasive best.  He can barely keep it together long enough to stay halfway in character.  They are fully aware of their power, and file the information away for use in anniversary/graduation/other celebratory settings.)  Wow…that kinda got away from me.  Again.

Anyway, I tried to do the reader poll thing, hope my responses went through/made sense.  Hope the assorted links I’ve attempted work, I’ve never tried adding them to something before.  I probably still have the tabs open if I need to try again, unless my computer randomly decides to close them, which I have had it occasionally do.  Glad that you are feeling somewhat better, and that it doesn’t appear to be anything serious (and possibly even somewhat positive, in the long run, at least?  If it’s a sign of things trying to heal?)  Sorry in advance if some of this makes assisting customers difficult tomorrow.  XD  I feel like it should just be implicit, like my brain just compels it’s own warning in general.

I think I’ve read through this at least ten times because it’s just so good. I don’t really have the energy to reply to everything, but I do want to leave you with some headcanons of my own. 

Mainly Hogwarts houses:

Ravenclaw: Lydia, Melissa, Natalie, Julio, Stiles

Gryffindor:  Noah, Derek, Kira, Allison, Boyd

Hufflepuff: Scott, Chris, Jordan, Ben, Isaac

Slytherin: Malia, Jackson, Peter, Danny, Erica

Ben’s super cute playfulness as a wolf pup

Peter definitely wears a pair of wolf ears during sex, although he’s a little sad that he can’t mark up Chris and Noah as he used to. He liked to bite hard and draw blood, but with him as an Alpha, that’s just not an option anymore. Although there are plenty of other ways he can mark them up and he enjoys finding new ways. Even if they’re not as visual and permanent.

Peter also makes time for each of his kids and enjoys being a father. He revels in the role and loves reading bedtime stories to his younger kids, PTA meetings (he rises to the top of the rank really quickly, starts a turf war with a Karen but gets backed up by Mack’s mom. So it’s all cool.) And With his older kids he finds new ways to guide them through life as young adults. He’s there for every homework assignment, every break-up, every report card, and all the little moments he’s had to miss out on.

Also when Noah is pregnant, he’s closely monitored by Melissa and his licensed midwife. (He’s given birth to Malia and Stiles at home, he’s planning to do it again. Chris too, only has had homebirths, although Ben had to be rushed to the hospital because the doofus swallowed amniotic fluid during birth and turned blue after ten minutes. (Which is based on a true story, my brother had that complication after homebirth. Homebirths are very common in my country which is why I put them in my fics.)) And Peter and Chris go into protective overdrive. He keeps working for as long as he can but at four months pregnant with twins, he has to take a step back and only work desk duty until he’s 7.5 months along. He takes some time off after that and gets time to recuperate and rest. 

Chris for his last pregnancy also chooses to have a homebirth, Julio comes to work for him to do his arms deals and meetups while Chris takes a step back and works from his office until the day he goes into labor. And even then he’s still trying to get this deal done while breathing through contractions.

Also, imagine Peter getting to experience both of his mates being pregnant again. I like to imagine the smile on his face when he hears the heartbeats for the first time, how he just knows when his mates are pregnant, he recognizes the scent change now. He knows Chris is pregnant before Chris does. With Noah it’s a bit more of a tie since Noah can pick up the twins’ energy signatures and heartbeat at 4-5 weeks. Which is when the scent change happens.

I imagine the three of them curled up together after the youngest has been born, all tuckered out and completely passed out. The new baby curled up in the cosleeper next to the bed. Malia sneaks in without waking her dad and starts snapping pictures for the family album. And at one point during the night, Ben and the youngest twins end up sleeping in their parents’ bed as well. It becomes a routine until Ben is ten and generally likes to sleep alone. (Unless he’s upset, then he comes running.)

Also, the mere image of Chris wearing glasses and Noah wearing his police sunglasses (or regular glasses), like yes, sign me up. Also, Peter shows solidarity and starts wearing glasses later in life too. Which doesn’t only do wonders for their sex life (though that was never bad, to begin with) but also every single parent at Ben’s high school and the twins’ elementary school suddenly have the hots for the three extremely hot dilfs.

It also helps with getting justice for Ben when his son is being bullied at school and Chris has to convince Peter not to kill anyone, Noah shows off the sheriff’s  badge and starts suggesting a few things, and Chris likes to remind people that his son (Jackson) is now the youngest DA in the country and works from Beacon Hills and his other son (Stiles) is now an FBI agent who certainly wouldn’t mind digging into the past of whoever is bullying his little brother. (Not that he ever has to get that far, usually he smiles warmly and charms the principal or the teacher with his trademark smile and within a day Ben’s bullies are disciplined by the school.)

I have no idea where I’m going anymore as I’m pretty tired at this point. But these were stuck in my head and I had to share.

(Once again, I adore every single headcanon you’ve send me. <3)
