Romantic Pogue Thoughts.

Pogue issuch an old fashioned romantic. Always picks you up before a date and he doesn't just drive you home, he walks you right up to the door and opens it for you; gives you his jacket when it's chilly out; pulls out a chair for you; just a total gentleman at heart. Honestly, Pogue makes other guys look like losers compared to him, he's just that good and barely has to try to do it.

He takes things slow, even before you’re dating, but that’s just his way. Pogue wants to be careful with the partner he chooses, knowing how important this is., and at first, he just thought you were cute. Flirted a little bit, stole lingering glances when you weren’t looking, thought about you a lot, it takes a while to finally make a move. But when it got to the point he was having dreams about you and getting pissed when some other guy hit on you, Pogue figured this was more than a crush and asked you out. And he was so smooth about it too, driving up on his bike while you were walking home one day and telling you that you really should go out with him sometime.

"Like a date?"

"Yeah, like a date," he replied. "Dinner, dancing, all the classics."

And it's sort of the best date ever, Pogue walking you home that night, holding your hand all the way. He didn't kiss you at first, even though he wanted to, leaving you at the door and wishing you a goodnight. But halfway down the drive, he thought, fuck it. So he turned around, pulled you into his arms, and kissed you the way he'd been dreaming of for weeks. Now he gets to kiss you every day and he takes full advantage of that

Pogue is SO supportive. Giving a presentation in class? He'll purposely ask a perfect question that allows you to expand on a certain topic (and if he can't be there, he'll get one of his friends to do it). Got a game or event of some kind? He's right there, giving you a kiss for good luck. Pogue has read your favorite books, listened to the bands you like, knows everything about you and loves it all.

Very touchy, very affectionate, he always has to be touching you to some degree. Playing with your hair, stealing a kiss, holding your hand, an arm around your shoulders or waist, pulling you onto his lap. The coven teases him for it, especially Caleb, but he couldn't care less.

"Dude, how about you two get a room?"

"Hey, how about you get a life?"

He wears thick silver rings, some plain and some with designs and at some point, he accidentally leaves one with you. When you try to give it back, he tells you to keep it and calls it a "promise ring." It's too big for you to wear it on your hand, so you keep it on a chain around your neck and he loves that. The way the silver shines against your skin, the ring falling just between your breasts...always kissing your neck, playing with the chain, tugging you closer, the man is OBSESSED.

Some idiot hits on you right in front of him, to the point of trying to touch you, only for you to slap his hand away as he calls you a cunt. Pogue isn't even going to waste magic on this bitch, no, he handles this the old fashioned way: takes him outside, beats the hell out of him, and makes it clear what's going to happen if the guy ever looks at you funny. Then Pogue turns around and returns to you, promising that the bastard won't dare do it again.

He keeps a few pictures of you around at all times. One in his wallet, some on his bedroom mirror and in the garage, where he keeps his tools, a few more in a box where he keeps mementos of your relationship.

Pogue likes to write. Horror stories, mysteries, and historical fiction mostly. It's something not a lot of people know about him (he's pretty private) but he's actually a really talented writer and lets you read his stuff later in the relationship. And when you tell him how much you like it and how certain you are that he'll be published one day, he can't stop himself from smiling like an idiot. He will be published one of these days and his first book is dedicated to you, of course.

Very overprotective of you, to the point where you have to call him on it. Pogue cannot help it, the feeling comes naturally to him, but he does recognize that he can be overbearing at the worst of times and works on that.

Pogue struggles to open up, he's the kind of man who keeps his cards close. But by doing so, he pushes you away and calls it protection, his actions nearly costing him your relationship. Once he sees this and realizes how much he loves you, Pogue will finally tell you everything.

Loves seeing you in his clothes, especially his jacket around others (it's like he's claiming you with a silent mine) and his oversized t-shirts in private, when you stay the night with him. You used to bring your own clothes when you stayed over but they always seemed to vanish (hmmm, I wonder why) so you just gave up.

If you have a job, he WILL show up and very sweetly bother you. Waitress at a local place? He and the coven are there at least a couple times a week, Pogue flirting the whole time and leaving a massive tip (he also punishes any and all patrons who are rude to you and the rest of the staff because fuck that noise). Helping out at the school library? Well, he just so happens to be studying and could you help him find this particular book in a dark, quiet, perfect for making out the corner of the library? He'll be certain to reward you for it.

Calls you every night before bed just to hear your voice. Pogue loves your voice, the way you say his name, whispering as to not wake anybody up, smothering laughter when he says something sweet. It's his favorite ritual and he honestly can't sleep without it. The day you move in together and he gets to hold you and talk to you every night, my god, he's just in heaven.

Loves to take you on long bike rides out to some pretty place, quiet and peaceful. It's just the two of you, hiding from the whole damn world and being so, so in love and that's how he likes it.

Pogue is the first guy you brought home that your dad actually liked (mostly because he grew up with Mr. Perry and thinks well of him) and he's so smug about that. Wins over the whole family in a single night and comes over a couple times a month for dinner, always clears the table and helps with the dishes. Reid calls him a dork for this, but Pogue just points out that NONE of Reid's "meet the parents" moments have ever gone well and maybe there's a reason for that.

He shows you his magic through something beautiful: snow in the summer. You love snow and, wanting to ease you into the strangeness, he makes something he knows you'd like. At first, Pogue is so afraid that you'll still be scared, that you'll reject him. But all you do is kiss him, snow melting between your lips and making everything okay...maybe that's your sort of magic.

"I love you, Pogue..."

Pogue stresses a lot and you see that. You're always there for him, always comforting him and listening to him vent, taking up for him when others talk trash behind his back. And he loves that about you, loyalty is something he deeply values.

Pogue knows he wants to marry you about a year and a half into the relationship. Something went down and, instead of being afraid, you had remained by his side the whole time, his rock in the tempest of everything. And in that moment, he knew he wanted to marry you, buying a ring in secret and holding onto it until the time was right and he knew it was what you wanted to. And after that…

Happily ever after.

I was re-watching The Covenant after like a bajillion years and can they re-make it as a tv show? I have so many questions that need to be answered ???

[ciaossu-imagines]

For the friends with benefits prompt from the event, I used number 17 for some of the boys from The Covenant! I had fun thinking this one out and hope you lovelies will enjoy the headcanons 😊

17) Our muses aren’t romantically involved but wind up having sex out of convenience

CALEB

Caleb is actually the least likely, out of all the Sons, to fall into a friends with benefits situation. He knows he’s good-looking, he’s used to being the subject of really shallow crushes. It’s been happening since he was around eleven, honestly, people crushing on him because of his looks, his wealth, his reputation. He knows that if all he wanted was casual sex and shallow relationships, they’ve always been at his disposal.

At one point, he was happy with it being at his disposal. He really was. At one point, Caleb was kind of a dick. He was a pre-teen Lothario, making out with whoever caught his fancy, moving on just as quick and leaving behind broken hearts.

He found out quickly though that it was a lot less fun than he figured it would be. He was also going through a lot around that time, especially with his father, and that period of being a complete dick was thankfully short-lived.

That’s not to say that Caleb can’t be turned by a pretty head. It’s not to say that he won’t casually date. But it’s just that – he casually dates. He has relationships, even if he doesn’t mean for them to be serious, long-term relationships and more just fun, for-now romances. (He likes romance but he has some pretty solid standards for long-term dating partners, what can I say).

It’s really rare for him to be okay with doing the whole friends with benefits thing. He’d have to be kind of in a rough spot, mentally and emotionally, again for him to be falling back into that.

If he is, he expects a friends with benefits to really be a distraction. He wants nothing but sex, fun, silly conversations, and nothing at all serious or heavy. He almost doesn’t want to see the other person as a full person, with their own emotions and things they’re going through, in a way. He just wants fun – if heavy things come up or the person starts to show they’re not just a ‘good-time gal’ type of deal, Caleb would bail.

He’d honestly, deep down in his stomach, feel horrible about the way he was treating them even while he was doing it and he’d regret being so awful to them once he was emotionally and mentally back into a better position and he’d probably apologize if he ever saw them again.

While he might have moments and situations where he can be a dick, overall, Caleb does like to try to be a good man.

POGUE

Though we first get introduced to a Pogue that is in a serious relationship, I don’t think that is, or has always been, the case. It’s not that he’s not happy being in a relationship. While it wasn’t something he purposefully set out to get into (him and Kate started as something casual that just developed into more), Pogue is someone who enjoys the safety, security, and connection of a full relationship.

However, as I said, it wasn’t something he was looking for. Pogue had a long stretch of time where he really wasn’t looking for anything serious as far as relationships went. He enjoyed playing the field and did so from the time he started getting interested in dating. There’s a thrill, an excitement, to the beginning of things, that rush of endorphins and happiness in the early stages of getting to know someone, of first making out with them, of the initial hookups. And to a thrill-seeker like Pogue, that feeling was a little addictive.

Because of that, he was someone who really played the field. He had a reputation as a bad boy already, but he also gained a reputation as both a ‘ladies man’ to use an antiquated term, and a heartbreaker. That reputation actually added an additional layer of attractiveness to him for quite a few people, who were convinced that they could ‘fix’ him, reform his playboy ways.

During that stage of his life, Pogue really had no qualms about friends with benefits relationships. He wasn’t prone to developing feelings for his friends with benefits and could be a little callous about shutting down and icing out those fwb’s of his who developed feelings for him beyond just enjoying the sex and occasional companionship.

Pogue can definitely catch feelings in that situation, but it’s very rare. It’s a once in a blue moon type of deal.

However, because he really turns on the charm and brings a lot of excitement to those friends with benefits type relationships, his friends are prone to falling for him. He’s aware of this and he warns them ahead of time not to fall in love with him, lets them know he’s not looking for anything serious. He does at least try to communicate clearly what he’s after. He’s not a total dick about it.

I do think that, after breakups happen in his life, as someone who doesn’t handle heavy emotions like that well, Pogue will turn to friends with benefits relationships, one-night-stands, and casual sex to try to make himself feel better. He’s a believer in the saying of ‘to get over an ex, get under someone else’. It doesn’t really help, not in the long term, but it makes him feel good in that moment, which is all that really matters to him.

REID

Reid likes to think he’s the type of guy who could not only have and maintain a friends with benefits relationship with someone but could have multiple relationships of that type going at any one time. He wants to give off that aura and vibe of being a playboy; he wants people to look at him and assume that people are clamoring to fuck him, that he has zero issues pulling in casual sex at any point.

That’s not quite the reality though. I think that, when it comes to Reid, there really is a disconnect, a severe one on occasion, between the persona he shows to the world around him and who he actually is inside, how he feels and thinks at any given moment. He’s someone who does try to keep that outside persona, who does want to be seen as ‘cool’ or ‘tough’ by other people and because of this, acts in ways that don’t always align with his own morals, thoughts, or emotions.

To tell the truth, Reid’s actually someone who would really want a relationship more than just a casual fuck. He sees other guys his age getting into these solid, seemingly really happy relationship and he gets jealous. He’s got a romantic soul and he would love a relationship and not just a sexual one. The idea of having someone to take out on dates, to create happy memories with, to be able to talk to and support each other through everything? That appeals to Reid just as much as the guaranteed sex does.

However, he just hasn’t gotten lucky that way. He hasn’t met that person who he connects with properly yet, though not for lack of flirting and trying. While he still wants that, he’s not against the idea of taking friends with benefits along the way until he meets that person. Part of it is definitely to keep up that outside persona, to seem like the big man on campus, but another, more internal part of him, does always hold a glimmer of hope that maybe the friends with benefits situation will lead somewhere deeper and more solid.

It is because he does go into those things  with that little spark of hope, combined with the fact that Reid has problems having no strings attached sex, without developing some emotions towards the other person, that Reid has a bad tendency of catching feelings for his friend with benefits. He falls head over heels, quicker and harder, every time they’re together and he starts to get a little more possessive over his friend with benefits.

In his mind, he is in a relationship with them when he starts developing those feelings and he doesn’t really stop to consider that his fuck buddy doesn’t necessarily share those same feelings. Things don’t typically turn out pleasantly for anyone involved in the end, to be honest. Both sides walk away a little battered emotionally.

♡ Hobbies for the Sons of Ipswich ♡ because I think they need some hobbies beyond warlock shit/being hot, you know?

Music and wood carving. There's always music playing with Caleb around, mostly rock. His grandfather liked to wood carve, said that it taught him patience and attention to detail, and he taught Caleb too. It helps with being a warlock, woods can be used to make talismans and things, but he mostly does it for himself...and for you, carving a little charm and hanging it from a charm bracelet for you.

Writing and mechanics. Pogue loves to write and hopes to one day be published. For now, he's mostly scribbling in notebooks (always with a dark blue pen, it's a tradition) and he always has a notebook and pen with him, just in case an idea hits him. Of course he loves working on his bikes and on cars too, music blasting in the garage and his tools everywhere as he gets to work, it's so relaxing and simple compared to everything else in his life.

Music and running. He's always listening to music, much like Caleb, but he dabbles in it too. Plays guitar and piano and writes his own songs (which no one has ever heard/read before), records them all on cassette tapes because he's old school like that. And running helps him clear his head, especially when he starts to lose his temper and get lost in it. That's actually how you meet, Reid blasting music as he runs, stumbling upon a pretty girl and her broken down car in the middle of nowhere.

Art and reading. Ty is a crazy talented artist, mostly in ink and charcoal sketches. But he also dabbles in painting (acrylic and watercolor) and a little in sculpting too. He has a habit of drawing/painting on everything, doodles covering his homework but no one minds. And he's always got a book with him, mostly historical fiction, sci-fi, horror, classics, and (secretly) romance. Pogue actually likes to read too as they're always sharing books.

Caleb's a nerd (affectionate) and enjoys learning about logistics and statistics.

"Trick or treat!" A small horde of children approach to celebrate Halloween. There's a zombie, an astronaut, and a splash of 80s aesthetics. (for whichever of your muses you want and or whoever you headcanon to give out the good candy. ;) because these monsters love only the best)

@anderson-residence

"Caleb! There are trick-or-treaters here!" Reid called from the door of the Danvers home.

Caleb appeared with a big bag of candy, handing out a good helping to each of them.

"Don't give out all the candy," Pogue told him, his mouth full of a piece already.
