Peraltiago babysitting a playdate between Mac and maybe Ava (maybe too much age difference idk)

i’m guessing ava is 5/6 now so she’ll be a little bit older once Mac is able to play with her independently but out of all the squad’s kids, Ava is the one Mac gets along with easier, the others can be a bit too fussy with Mac and baby him too much which Mac hates despite being a toddler still,

Terry and Sharon are attending the twins school perfomance and due to tickets and the size of the school function they made it limited tickets only so Ava stays with Jake and Amy for a couple of hours. Mac is very excited and waits for Ava by the window and runs to the door when she walks up the drive. The pair run into Mac’s playroom as soon as they get in and play with Ava’s toys, Mac then shows Ava his new turtles that he brought a few weeks back.

Amy calls them both for a snack and tells them they can watch a movie, Ava chooses a movie and Mac agrees they watch the movie and sit on the floor together and every time Ava moves into a different seating position Mac does the same, Jake and Amy notice & both look at eachother and smile.

They then all play together for a while and Ava gets to see Libby who has just woken up from a late nap.

Terry and Sharon arrive back to pick up Ava and Mac gets really upset to see her leave but Jake reassures him that they’ll see eachother very soon

Crying over Jake meeting baby Ava first

[vernonfielding]

From heaven they sent

Story No. 31 of my Season 7 Countdown Project. THE END! THIS IS IT!

Summary: “You want to hold her?”

Jake holds his goddaughter for the first time. Takes place during Ava. (Read on AO3.)

It’s only as Terry is bent over the bassinet, hand sliding under his daughter’s delicate head, cupping the warm weight of it in his palm and thinking again how precious this life is, how fragile, that it hits him: Jake has never done this before.

(Truthfully, he doesn’t know that for sure, but he’s almost certain.)

Terry eases his other hand under Ava’s tiny body and lifts her to his chest, awed all over again by her perfection – the curve of her nose, the curl of her miniature eyelashes, the plump jut of her cheeks, which are already flushed a rosy pink. She is asleep and for a moment he’s lost in her, memorizing her face and the five wrinkled fingers that have slipped out of the swaddle. His heart is so full of love his chest aches with it, in the best possible way.

He’s blinking back tears when he finally turns to Jake.

“Have you held a baby this small before?” he says, making no move to pass over his girl right away.

Jake is swaying a little, pushing from one foot to the other with nervous restlessness, and Terry can see the muscles tensing across his shoulders. But his eyes are fixed on Ava, and there’s a softness there and in the small smile playing at his mouth, and the look on his face isn’t fear, it’s wonder. 

Jake shakes his head and then breaks his gaze and glances at Terry. “Are you sure you want me to-”

“Yeah,” Terry says, and adjusts his daughter, cradling her head as he holds her out toward Jake. “Bend your arm, a little more- yes, just like that.”

And then he’s setting Ava’s head in the crook of Jake’s elbow, and he guides her body into Jake’s arms; she’s so small, not much more than a bundle of pink blanket against Jake’s gray hoodie. Terry adjusts Jake’s position, moves his arms until he’s sure Jake’s got a good hold. He lays a palm over the crown of his baby’s head and strokes his thumb over the smallest frown that’s formed on her brow, and he takes a step back and leaves Ava alone in her godfather’s arms.

Jake’s eyes are bright as he gazes down at her. Terry can’t imagine what thoughts are flashing through Jake’s weird and exceptional mind (he isn’t sure he wants to know), but the love that Jake already has for this child is obvious – he’s practically got hearts in his eyes – and not surprising.

Terry chose Jake as godfather in large part because he asked. The two most obvious godparent choices – Sharon’s best girl friends from college – had gone to Cagney and Lacey. Terry has plenty of non-work friends, but none of them expressed any interest in being a godparent before, nor have they been especially active in the twins’ lives since. The fact that Jake had campaigned for the job had earned him points with both Terry and Sharon. In the end, when Terry had asked Sharon about it, she’d shrugged and said sure, and then, “Isn’t he the one who gives you acid reflux?”

Initially, Terry had thought it might be a joke, or possibly a prize – something for Jake to lord over Amy or Charles (or basically the whole squad). But Jake quickly had made it clear he was serious, and then Terry had thought: Jake is brave and smart and confident, and he has such a good heart. And Jake laughs. He laughs more than anyone Terry knows. And didn’t Terry want that for his daughter? To be as fiery and fierce as her sisters and her mother, and as full of laughter as her godfather?

Even after he’d said yes, Terry mulled it over some more, and later he realized that Jake loves the same way he does his job: with reckless abandon, with all of his strength and his passion, with his arms and his heart wide open. He screws up sometimes, but he doesn’t hold back. He will give his godchild everything that’s in his power to offer.

Eventually, Terry’s doubts disappeared entirely.

Terry sits beside his wife on her bed and carefully drapes an arm around her shoulders, and she settles into his side, and it doesn’t matter one bit that they’re in a hospital, that almost everything went so horribly wrong today, because the important things went right and Ava is here and she is healthy. And Jake is responsible for a lot of that. Their baby is so lucky to have him.

Jake shifts his arms, and it’s barely a twitch, but Ava’s eyes open. Terry knows she can’t really see anything just yet but he’d swear they are making eye contact, that they are locked on to one another just now. Jake grins at her and Terry can feel his unbound joy like a presence in the room, like something electric.

“Hi,” Jake says, voice so soft and gentle it’s almost unrecognizable. “I’m Jake. I’m your godfather. We’re going to have so much fun together. And if your parents die, I’m going to take reasonably good care of you.”

“Terry?” Sharon says. She reaches for him and her grip on his forearm is painful.

“Uh, Jake-” Terry says, rising from the bed.

“Look, ‘reasonable’ is the best I can guarantee, and I’m not going to make promises I can’t keep. That would be a terrible way to start godfathering,” Jake says to them both. He looks back at the baby, blinks at her and beams when she blinks back. “Isn’t that right, godbaby?”

Terry means to respond to that – and he knows Sharon is a half-second from asking Terry how the hell Jake got the idea that he would ever be Ava’s guardian – but then the baby hiccups and every sour emotion in the room dissipates like it was never there, and everyone is smiling and crying and overcome again with how right and perfect the world is.

“That was the cutest fucking sound I’ve ever heard,” Jake says.

Terry kisses his baby’s forehead and then he kisses Jake’s forehead because he just can’t help himself, and he says, “Amen, my god-wife.”

End Notes:

Title is from Bikini Babe Workout (Bash Brothers).

Weirdly, this was the first story I wrote for this project. But it seemed appropriate to end the countdown with Jake holding his baby goddaughter for the first time. Here’s to season 7!!

(I’m going to be super obnoxious now and thank a bunch of people for their help or support or flailing or whatever with this countdown project.)

First thank you: Oh my god, @fezzle. My beta and my dear friend. I WOULD NOT have attempted this dumb project without her. She beta’d 31 STORIES (That’s more than 30K words! In a month!) and she saved my ass more than once. She also helped me brainstorm ideas and she talked me off the ledge a few times. I cannot capture how completely amazing she is and how much I love her. Everyone should be so lucky to have a Fezzle in their lives (especially if they’re going to attempt something ridiculous like this series, but also just, in general).

Second thank you: Everyone who gave me a fic prompt! Some of the best ideas came from you guys. I’m going to name folks here and hope I don’t forget anyone or get a name wrong: @fezzle, @madeofitzits, @andrewsambags, @exploding-snapple, @theoneintheblue, @vic-kovac, @weshallmeetagain, @ofbuttsandbombs, @amyscascadingtabs, and @feeisamarshmallow. (That’s in the order stories were posted btw.) If you sent me a prompt and I didn’t write it, please tell me! I may have missed you somehow. I’m also super open to prompts at any time, so don’t hesitate to hit me up after this month.

Third thank you: EVERYONE who left kudos or comments or likes, or who reblogged on tumblr or reached out to me personally in some way. I LOVE YOU ALL. Writing fic can sometimes feel weirdly lonely and isolating and it is always so great to get any kind of feedback. (Let’s be honest, feedback is like a fucking drug and it is the best.)

(Yes, I’m sorry, these End Notes may be longer than the actual fic.)

Fourth thank you: I really especially appreciated the folks who engaged in some great fandom discussion with me relating to these stories – in particular, @amyscascadingtabs and @feeisamarshmallow and @exploding-snapple (timeline!) and MediumSizedEvil. That was fun, guys.

Fifth thank you: Anyone who read all of these stories, even if you never feedbacked. Fedback? Anyway, you’re out there and I appreciate you too!

Sixth thank you: Fezzle again, just because. ❤️

Is anyone else curious as to what happened to Ava Jeffords? I mean, she was born in season 3 and even in the ep where Jake and Amy babysit Terry’s kids (a season later), only Cagney and Lacey are shown. Ava hasn’t even been mentioned since she was born, despite Jake being her godfather and that seems like something he’d bring up every once in a while

[b99reblogstuff]

jake + babies (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:·ﾟ✧ 

[crazynerdandproud]

Terry and Sharon just had Ava and my heart is about to explode from joy. This episode was amazing.

[lady-of-the-spirit]

One of the funniest scenes from Brooklyn 99 is that scene in Ava where Jake is talking about how he has experience with childbirth.

and it cuts to a scene of him eating chips and watching a nature documentary and his reaction to the birth of a rhino calf is "Gross! Come out of an egg next time!"

[annevmoreira]

"For not stopping him in time? "

Day 13 and 14: apologies and throat for the @31daysofwayhaven

[nocontextginalinetti]

I'm so happy for you and I never wanna see your daughter or remember this day

[sidecharacter-of-a-sitcom]

C, L and N have been solving little mysteries since middle school. Ava has never really been into their "childish sherlockian stuff" as she has always been way ahead of her years. But she got involved after Enigma joined the team recently, and Ava became quite smitten with this raucous personality, who says "I love you" 10 times a day (the Boyle in her)

New fresh idea.

Brooklyn Nine Nine babies have their own show in 10 years. So Mac will be like 10. Cagney and Lacey and Nikolaj will be young adults. Ava and Enigma, almost teens. And they all SOLVE CRIME together. With. Arlo. 😭😭😭

Who will write a fanfic for me now?

I love how Jake is the only responsible one for once when Sharon goes into labor at the police station. It's usually Jake being the immature one while the rest deal with the fallout of his impulsive actions, but in this episode Jake deals with the craziness of the precinct, with Sharon and with the pressure of making the final choice of going to the hospital. Jake would be a great dad, is what I'm saying. He pulls through when it matters.

Small things about b99 that you may have forgotten:

• in her dreams, santiago always holds a label-maker.

• peralta eats the same cereal as cagney and lacey

• along with that, he also has his cereal with orange soda in

• boyle’s ex wife is a monster

• peralta was the first out of the whole squad to see and hold ava jeffords

• in the pilot, stephanie beatriz used her normal voice to play diaz, that’s why it sounds kinda off

• all of captain holts friends think he’s hilarious

• peralta laughed when he found of holt was gay because he didn’t believe it

• gina has survived both being hit by a bus, and being literally stabbed in the back

• peraltiago names their son mac after john mclane because jake loves die hard so much

[littlebvtterfly]

Send a fandom + Brooklyn 99?

CHARACTERS I WILL (PROBABLY) NEVER WRITE FOR (21/?) aka SEND ME A FANDOM AND I'LL MAKE A PLOT BUNNY FOR IT AND VICE VERSA

I tried a different approach this time because I don't want all B99 OC's to be cops so hopefully this works!

JUDE CARTER

Aliases/Nickname: J, JC

Birthdate: June 26th, 1994

Relatives: Margaret Carter (Mother), Eddie Carter (Father), Sharon Jeffords (Older Sister), Zeke Carter (Older Brother), Terry Jeffords (Brother-In-Law), Cagney and Lacy Jeffords (Nieces), Ava Jeffords (Niece)

Hair Color: Black

Eye Color: Brown

Species: Human

Affiliation: FDNY

Marital Status: Single

Occupation: Firefighter

Character Description/Backstory: The youngest of the Carter kids by far, Jude had always felt a bit left behind. May that be because his brother and sister were a lot older than him or because he really was left behind. At 19, Jude decides that it is time for him to move to the big city and pursue a career in fire fighting, much to the chagrin of his Sergeant brother-in-law Terry Jeffords. But Jude deals with the bullying from him and his squad, if only aware of the fact that what he's doing is the right thing. He is great friends with Faye Loyd and loves to spend time with Sharon and his nieces. Jude is a goofy goober through and through. In his off time he likes to travel and he's a big foodie. Jude is a sweet guy who really just wants to fit in somewhere and slowly but surely he starts thawing the biased hearts of the 99th Precinct.
