Favorite Cooliver headcannons?

ooooooooo okok i’m probably gonna forget some but here are some of my favs!!!!! (also plz plz plz y’all tell me yours!!!!!)

really long list under the cut :p

-they’re cat ppl. idc. like they don’t hate dogs or anything but when they’re all grown up their first pet as a couple is an orange cat :)

-normally i’m a huge supporter of every ship ever being girldads (literally my user lol) and like… cooliver are girldads but they’re also soooo boydads. they have a son. his name is spencer. also their daughter is probably named after katie

-OLIVER IS A CUDDLER. HE ALWAYS DENIES IT. BUT HE LOVES CUDDLING.

-^cooper is normally the big spoon

-cooper has really bad eyesight. he wears contacts normally, but then oliver sees him in glasses once and is like constantly begging him to wear his glasses bc they look soooo good on him

-obviously cooper calls oliver every spanish pet name ever

-cooper cooks, oliver does laundry

-when they get married, they consider hyphenating but they end up just being oliver and cooper otto

-when they kiss, cooper tastes like oranges (i literally wrote a whole fic about this) and oliver tastes like licorice

-they had their first kiss when they were 14 (cough cough s3 e5 “trust me” cough cough) and maybe had a few more casual kisses and moments after that but didn’t actually officially get together until the summer between junior/senior year of high school (so like right after s5)

-before they got together, oliver would always make fun of triplor for being so touchy/pda-heavy but then after he and cooper got together they’re even worse

-cooper asks greg and katie for permission before proposing. he knows they’ll say yes, but he still wants to ask.

-^they have a HUGE fancy proposal but actually a pretty small wedding

-when they start college they try to live separately for a bit but then they can’t do it bc they’re already too used to living together

-the version of katie’s 40th birthday pic w cooper and trip in it is framed and hung up in their house

-cooper never explicitly comes out to oliver, it just is something they’re both aware of

-sometimes cooper will just say something super out of pocket and oliver will be like “wtf are you talking about……. wait no you have a point actually”

-this is so engrained in my mind that i genuinely forget that iirc it’s not actually canon: they share clothes. like they don’t even really have separate parts of the closet. once oliver is tall enough that they’re the same size, all their clothes are communal property between the two of them

-^with that being said, there are a few sweatshirts that are distinctly oliver’s and cooper LOVES stealing them. especially if oliver has to go out of town for a business trip or something, he’ll sleep in them and stuff

I love it when fondoms just kinda collectively agree on headcanons

Like I could be wrong but I don't think I've ever seen anyone headcanon Cooper as anything but gay and Oliver as anything other than bi

And it's bc we're right Abt it ✋

I appreciate that your Bradford takes no prisoners. You nail the cold. cooperate side of him well. He's smart, mean and sarcastic but you don't forget he's a hurt scared person deep down. My favorite post was the one about how he felt about Isabella. I never saw their relationship that way before and that last line 'you never thought of anyone else but yourself, and because of that I do the same thing' still gets me.

I like that my Isabella post stuck out to so many people. I don't feel like people think about the psychology of indoctrination as a child. The morals and values (or lack thereof) that you are taught (or not) as a child reflect on those who brought you up. People don't just willingly shut others out or disregard them unless trauma is involved or it's imprinted on them by their parents. Of course, this is merely my headcanon but if Bradford's parents are not in the picture and Isabella raised him, then with her recklessness and lack of concern for the welfare of others, Bradford at a young age would learn to show that lack of welfare or concern when he got older through indoctrination. He would feel, through the trauma of adventure growing up that this was just how the world worked. I am very raw with my portrayal of him. This is how someone like him acts. In canon he's cold and sadistic at times. He has little regard for others and is a very cagey, brick wall of a man who hides behind cooperate professionalism. His analytical mind paired with his trauma makes his ride on sociopathy's side pretty hard. Any kindness from him on my part is earned through development because I feel that's what's needed. It's earned. To be his friend is earned and to someone like him, valued highly if you can get him to trust you.

I've done a lot of research on crime syndicates, namely mobs and the yakuza. Also did a lot of research on hitmen. Fascinating stuff and fascinating mindsets. I put some of that in Bradford as well, since he's pretty much a mob boss, let's be real. I'd also be doing myself a huge disservice to not be accurate, because I have CPTSD and I know how bad it sucks to feel that lack of empathy, to find it hard to connect with others, to feel like you can't trust people because you feel like they'll hurt you. Granted my PTSD isn't quite rooted in the same place, but the symptoms are across the board. It's not easy to deal with someone who's like him. It's why I ship with chemistry and it's why I say it'll be a long road. As I have said before, having friends or even someone to love doesn't solve all Bradford's problems but it does make things better for him. Thank you for your compliments, anon!

i will always be pushing the “oliver’s a cuddler” agenda. cooper wakes up every morning in a death grip, and he just has to stay there until oliver wakes up bc when oliver’s asleep/tired he’s just so cuddly and touchy and cooper’s not even upset about it bc he LOVES oliver and he loves being his teddy bear and and and

[trobedgirldads]

headcannon: basement-era oliver and cooper absolutely love having deep conversations from their separate beds in the middle of a the night. like at least once a week they’re awake at 2 am discussing their feelings and/or the meaning of life

[trobedgirldads]

Adding “You’re Still The One” by Queen Shania Twain to Cooliver’s Playlist hashtag.

Looks like we made it

Look how far we've come, my baby

We mighta took the long way

We knew we'd get there someday

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"

But just look at us holding on

We're still together, still going strong

You're still the one I run to

The one that I belong to

You're still the one I want for life

You're still the one that I love

The only one I dream of

You're still the one I kiss goodnight

Ain't nothin' better

We beat the odds together

I'm glad we didn't listen

Look at what we would be missin'

I feel like this would be a perfect song for both of them. I can imagine either of them playing the song to the other, maybe slow dancing at their 10 year anniversary or after a fight. 🥰

I miss these idiots a lot.

[ficsnships]

Can y’all imagine if instead of ballet, Oliver did figure skating ⛸❄️? With the Winter Olympics going on I had to post about it LOL.

I need a Cooliver AU about it! 😂🙌

[ficsnships]

So I was watching Schitt’s Creek, and there’s a super romantic scene that had me on tears. Patrick singing “The Best” by Tina Turner to David, and David’s happy cute face 🥺, broke me. Like, what a gorgeous moment! 😭😭.

So of course, I had to add that song to Cooliver’s Playlist tag! 🙌👀 It just made me think about how much Cooper means to Oliver.

I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire

You come to me, come to me wild and wired

When you come to me

Give me everything I need

Give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams

Speak a language of love like you know what it means

And it can't be wrong

Take my heart and make it strong, baby

You're simply the best

Better than all the rest

Better than anyone

Anyone I've ever met

I'm stuck on your heart

I hang on every word you say

Tear us apart

Baby, I would rather be dead

In your heart, I see the star of every night and every day

In your eyes, I get lost, I get washed away

Just as long as I'm here in your arms

I could be in no better place

Bonus:

I am also sharing that scene, because it deserves all the love!
