#and the amount of other physical trauma... you guys get shot/stabbed/blown up WAY too many times to be walking around pain free

hi i would love to hear your disability headcanons for the squints!

OH this is so special to me <3 idk what Specifically you meant but im gonna talk abt my physical disability headcanons bc they are important to Me and i never talk abt them

brennan: ok with the amount she's physically gone through she would definitely have chronic pain- plus in archaeology "chronic back + hand pain" are just like ,,, standard parts of the job . i would also like to see more about her brain injury- even though she was healing quite well in the finale, TBIs are SUCH complex things and she would likely have lasting effects. so Yeah !! i would also like to headcanon her as a cane user PURELY for projection reasons <3 she would have MULTIPLE very nice canes bc you know she loves a coordinated outfit !

booth (not a squint but . shh): canonically has chronic pain + a tbi (who DOESN'T in this show jfc) but also . he would very likely have hearing loss ?? with the amount of explosions and gunfire he's been part of there is NO way he wouldn't have hearing damage. hard of hearing booth my beloved

angela: is there anyone in this show who WOULDN'T have some form of chronic pain 😭 i hc her as having joint Issues, probably some form of arthritis? which is super common in artists. or hypermobility bc once again ! projection <3 i hc her using braces for her wrists/fingers :-)) im very insecure abt mine at times but this idea makes me happy

hodgins: CANONICALLY DISABLED KING 💪💪 obviously he is . paralyzed but i also hc him with hearing loss, either from the blast itself or even just from the long-term sound exposure of his job (he does NOT always follow safety procedures when he's blowing things up). i love him sm <3 in my headcanon he also makes his wheelchair look SO COOL- he's got all the customisations he can find just bc he thinks it looks sick as hell

cam: so there's like . no way the whole Literally Almost Dying from poison thing didn't cause some sort of permanent damage- the poison REALLY effected her lungs so i'd say she has some form of lung damage (scarring? asthma? i dont know much about lungs). i also hc her with epilepsy bc . im sad about my neurological issues but i LOVE her <3 in my hc she uses an inhaler (she also put a 'just breathe' sticker on it because . dark humour 😭 (shoutout to my bestie who actually did that))
