Nap

The irony of doing a whole month of sleep prompts and then not sleeping is not lost on me.

Engineer (Marcus) x GN!Reader, TW: none Words: 316

Being head engineer on such a massive spaceship has been putting some serious strain on Marcus’ body, and it’s been hard for him to stay caught up on his sleep. You’d think that with the endless night sky he’d find it easy to sleep, but unfortunately that’s just not the case. His “nights” have been spent holed up in the workshop trying to piece together some equipment for the other members of the crew.

Due to these nights of inconsistent sleep, despite the fact that “night” is simply a simulation to keep everyone on a schedule, he has decidedly put a hammock under his workbench, just to lay down for a bit if he finds himself getting a little bit too tired to continue working with hazardous equipment. Today happened to be one of those times, so he climbs underneath and gets himself settled in. He’s stopped bothering with turning off the lights or putting a sign on the door to signify he’s sleeping. If he wakes up, oh well.

Somehow, he manages to get some actually restful sleep. He moves his arm to check his data pad, but finds it pinned down underneath something. His eyes peer open, and he sees you on top of him, deep in your own sleep. He freezes, before carefully worming his arm out from underneath you. Marcus considers getting up, but his full body fatigue and mental exhaustion makes a rather compelling argument to stay. So he wraps his arms around you, and uses his foot to push the hammock until it’s gently rocking the two of you.

Marcus figures that you too have been struggling with your sleep, and came looking for him. He’s just glad that he was a good enough excuse for you to take a nap. His heart melts when you just settle right in, cuddling up to him with a sigh. 

“Sleep well, captain.”

An evolution of Mercedes’ team kit (part 3)

2018-2024 Tommy Hilfiger

A blessed partnership! I can yap for hours about it.

A great evolution of an already excellent team kit. Well-fitted outfits, great jackets, no crazy colours, overall an outfit that looked great on every single team member, irrespective of gender, shape or height. Special tribute to the wet shirts and the tight pants allowing us to enjoy Bono and James’ incredible bottoms!

the only davenport-dooley family members i DONT headcanon as autistic are Tasha (neurotypical), Leo (ADHD), Bree (ADHD), and Douglas (ADHD+bipolar schizoaffective), so. Do with that what you will?

Marcus complaining about not getting a dad joke and his engineer immediately having one ready is adorable. I love them. It was a taylor swoft dad joke for those who care.

I'll always find a bit funny when I see some characters in tbosas being hcned as architects because they simply don't have the insanity™ level that's required for such

“Great.” Patrick sulked. “More pissin’ snow.”

Marcus chuckled. “If you play your cards right, you could get Wilfred to take the first supply train up.”

“Nah, I did that last year. Culdee’s probably onto me anyway.”

“Well at least you’ve got Christmas to look forward to.”

“Christmas can kiss my--”

“You don’t have to leave your shed at all! The whole railway’s closed on Christmas.”

“The “whole railway” is closed until Easter.” Patrick huffed, with a negative amount of patience.

“You don’t have passengers to put up with…?” Marcus offered, seemingly forgetting that passengers were, more or less, his entire reason for existing.

“No, I have a ratty old flatbed and a shitload of equipment that I have to shove halfway up the mountain, then hours of standing in the biting cold while they work. How. Fun.”

“There really is no winning with you, is there?” Marcus chuckled.

I'm actually not mad at this "unwashed hobo apostate" look on Marcus at all. It goes surprisingly well with his "romantic lead in a K-drama, some kingdom's lost prince perhaps" face that he's got going on.

look at this guy, he always looks a little like he's about to break into a breathy-voiced, heartfelt monologue about the illimitable vastness of love and longing in the soul

...... also, this was entirely unintentional (his tattoo was just something I figured he kept drawing on the back of his hand and then eventually just got tattooed, kind of serving as a non-magical spellcasting focus, there to remind him to watch where his hand was aiming) but I LOVE how this consistency in shape language ended up working out-

Nevarra and the Dalish are both kind of the triangle-people, I guess

Teddy Bear

Apologies for being a day late on this one, I had a midterm.

Engineer (Marcus) x GN!Reader, TW: none Words: 473

After searching around the ship, you’re finally able to find Marcus, who is asleep in his room. He has crashed on his floor, curled up on a massive teddy bear you’re sure is made from old torn coveralls that no one was using. The stitching is sloppy and there’s a few broken seams, but there’s a certain handmade charming quality to it that truly adds to the scene before you. 

You crouch down, pressing a kiss to his head as you sit down next to him, pushing his hair out of his face. He’s out cold, but keeps his arms wrapped tightly around the massive teddy bear. You hear him mutter a few things under his breath in his sleep, but nothing you can make out all that clearly. But your name slips out as he hugs it tighter, and your heart can’t do anything but melt as you know he’s dreaming about you.

After going through your options in your head, you decide to try to pry his arms off the stuffie so you can potentially squeeze in and give the man what he wants. He’s rather strong, so it’s fairly difficult to do so without waking him up, but you manage. You slip underneath him, on top of the teddy bear, and chuckle quietly to yourself as he then resumes his cuddling with you instead. There’s something familiar about it, like you’ve done it a million times even if it feels like it hasn’t been long since the two of you started dating. 

But it’s the way he slots himself against you, laying his ear against your chest and listens to your heart beat. Like he’s your personal mechanic, making sure your heart is protected and secure. His whole job revolves around maintaining the steady beating of the core of the ship, it surely can’t be all that different when it comes to you, right?

Your arms slide down his back until they fall into a resting position that’s most comfortable to you, that’s the most familiar. Marcus snuggles right back in again and you can’t help but feel like he’s turned himself into a bit of a teddy bear himself. Perhaps it’s his weight that provides grounding to you, or his steady breathing and slight squish of his dense muscles when you squeeze him affectionately. Any way you look at it, it feels right, perfect even.

You find yourself dozing off as he drags you down with him into slumberland, moving his head to rest on your shoulder so you can keep him as close as possible. He nearly hides you with his body, but perhaps the teddy bear you’re laying on is not just a stuffie, but a representation of how you view him. Yours, a little worn around the edges and not perfect, but perfect enough for you.

Characters That Have Never/Hardly Interacted In Canon That I Think Would Be Friends

I love how we see friendships in the series like the gang, Rosita, Buster, and Gunter, Johnny and Meena, and the Moon theatre trio. But I wish we saw more so... tada!! Here's a list of characters who I think would be friends with little to no explanation!

----------------------------------------

Rosita and Marcus: I headcanon that Rosita was Johnny's foster mom while Marcus was in jail so the two got to know each other that way. And now they are just best friends who stress over Johnny and come up with crazy inventions together. Like the engineer Rosita and the mechanic Marcus would have so much in common it would be awesome.

Stan and Gunter: The energetic person of their respective friend groups, I just know these two would constantly be causing chaos and enabling their nieces and nephew to cause utter havoc.

Nooshy and Ash: Ok ok ok, hear me out here. Hip Hop dancer friend to the grungy Rock singer. That dynamic would be adorable and awesome. Also, they seem to be around the same age and I feel like their personalities would mesh together really well. Plus, they were friends in that one promo thing for the Mario movie (I think? idk) and now they are besties in my mind.

Marcus and Clay: I feel like these two said nothing to each other for like the first eight meetings, then promptly trauma-dumped about their late partners to each other, and then never spoke of it again. Now they just keep in contact about Buster's stupid ideas and their kids (Johnny and Ash respectively).

Eddie and Barry: They'd be video game buddies!!! Eddies loves video games and I headcanon that Barry does too so you just know they team up online and like completely sweep tournaments. Also, they are both the logical ones of their current friend groups so I feel like they could bond over that.

Ryan and Mizuki: I feel like these two would just be a really good personality mesh for two very energetic and extroverted friends. Also, as a former principal dancer and now troupe leader, Ryan has a lot of networking and social media experience so I feel like they could bond over that since Mizuki seems to be in charge of that for the New Moon Theatre Troupe.

Rosita, Marcus, and Aamanee: One, I'm giving Meena's mom a name. Her name is now Aamanee, ok, cool, moving on. Two, I just want the three parents of the theatre trio to hang out. Like Ash is Rosita's adopted daughter at this point and all three parents are bound to be stressed about what Buster is dragging their kids into now.

Ryan and Suki: Mainly, again, this is purely from my headcanon that Suki took Ryan's mom's dance class as a kid and literally has known him since he was born, so the two are pretty good friends. Suki would be the tired older cousin that Ryan, a ball of extroverted energy, drags to events to "have fun".

Nana and Clay: I think these two definitely know each other from when they were younger and ran into each other at a ton of celebrity events so now they are friends who gossip and drink tea together. That's it. That's all they do on like a weekly basis. It's funny and adorable.
