FACE Family Troubles

I didn’t post this for this for the longest time because the angles were ass but I still think it’s funny so here we go. France is at a meeting and nobody misses him more than America and Canada.

It took them 4 hours to get ready because Francis spent 3 of them begging Arthur not to wear socks with sandals.

it was supposed to be a post on February 14th, but I couldn't resist. I love this trend and thought it would be nice to make it with my beloved family 🌟

England: Tell Sealand about the birds and the bees.

Canada: They're disappearing at an alarming rate.

Assorted FrUK/FACE Fam Headcanons

These are silly little thoughts I've had while drafting Migraines in Margaritaville, so these apply to the world of that AU (modern, human; FrUK parents raising NA bros in Massachusetts, US). Most of these involve food because I seem to think about them when I'm hungry???

• Francis and Arthur practice "one-parent-one-language" with the boys. Matthew took to French much easier than Alfred did, but both brothers managed to pick it up without much of a fuss. In elementary school the twins would use French to cheat on tests (they weren't allowed to sit next to each other after their schemes were discovered).

• Arthur set the grill on fire three times in one summer. Francis clearly doesn't learn from his mistakes and Arthur is too stubborn to let Francis do all of the work when it comes to preparing dinner.

• Follow up on the point above -- Arthur can prep vegetables and throw together food that doesn't require too much measuring or too many steps on the stovetop. He doesn't have the patience for most dishes and doesn't have a sense of what spices go well together/what is enough vs too much. Francis lets him help by chopping up vegetables and Arthur was usually the one to pack the boys' lunches. Sometimes they'd get leftover portions of whatever they had for dinner last night, but Arthur often defaulted to some sort of wrap with deli meat and assorted veggies/crackers for snack.

• Francis gives me similar vibes to those youtube moms who try to make homemade versions of popular American snacks. He may spend the weekdays at work in a kitchen, but on the weekends he's at home, still in the kitchen, trying to make homemade fruit leather and homemade cheese crackers for his sons.

• Arthur's the one more willing to let the boys get snacks from the store or take out. Francis is very much "we have McDonald's at home."

• Both Francis and Arthur would've been so excited to decorate the twins' nursery. They're both artistically inclined, be it in different ways. Arthur made blankets for both of them; Matthew is red and Alfred is blue. Francis paints floral designs on the furniture, in particular purple irises and both red and white roses.

• Because the twins were identical and because babies are kinda just blobs, they definitely accidentally mixed the twins up. The color coding might've come after the swap. They had a crisis about it. Francis "sacre bleu, we just gave two people permanent identity crises" Bonnefoy and Arthur "if we compare them to every picture we have of them we can figure it out" Kirkland. I'm imagining this happening before the twins have enough hair for their cowlicks to really form.

• It's tradition in the Kirkland-Bonnefoy household to have a box of Whitman's chocolates at every family party and Alfred is the reason why. One Christmas each twin got to pick out something special for the party and Alfred picked out the 22 piece Whitman sampler in the yellow box. They're not the best chocolates, but it became a tradition. Thankfully there's two layers in the box so Mattie and Al can have their own messenger boy pieces (the shaped chocolate that's the centerpiece of each layer).

• Neither Arthur or Francis have favor for one twin over the other. They both have their own activities they can do with Alfred and Matthew separately. Francis will cook and bake with Alfred and draw with Matthew. Arthur teaches Matthew to garden and watches old (by his son's standards) movies with Alfred.

• Francis is the parent the boys can come to no questions asked. Arthur isn't apathetic, but Francis is more inclined to give more thoughtful advice for relationships and general fuck-ups. He won't press on why or how something happened, but will help his sons figure out the best way to solve a problem.

• When Alfred and Mattie turned 10, Arthur wanted to teach them the importance of personal finance. He would give the boys $5 each week to spend on snacks at the grocery store (Arthur does the couponing and the shopping for the house). They were allowed to hold onto the money to use for later and could help with the couponing.

• Arthur drags the family out to Salem every Autumn. Sure, they live in Massachusetts and are well aware of how bad tourist season is, but he's fascinated with the city. Alfred initially went because he really liked this one New York style pizza shop in the Witch City Mall (how they got Francis to step foot in there, I don't know), but eventually grew interested in the witchy stuff Salem has to offer. Francis only puts up with it because the city has an art museum and weekly art fairs in the Fall. Matthew dreads their yearly trip. He loathes it. He'd rather tag along with Francis to the museum.

• Until the boys were old enough to start protesting, they had family Halloween costumes. Francis thought it was tacky, but saw the appeal when Arthur got the twins (still babies) all dressed up in lobster costumes.

Headcanon: Matthew has written n several awards for axe and knife throwing. While his brother is good with guns, he’s good with old fashioned knives and axes.

Headcanon: Both Matthew and Alfred have impeccable aim. Even before Arthur scooped them up. It was just another thing they bonded over.

…

Headcanon: Because of Canada and America’s great aim England used it against them. Often fighting with France saying that they are more like him because of their aim.

Headcanon: While England’s comments about aim didn’t affect America much, in fact America used it against him. Canada stopped throwing knives and axes for a long time. Only starting again after gaining independence.

Headcanon: Canada still hides that he has several awards from knife and axe throwing from England, and swore France to secrecy.

Headcanon: After France and America found out about the competitions, they never miss a single one. They always cheer Canada on.

Canon fruk would throw up if they saw this- I am so deep

Set in the Punk Dad Au, after a handful of years of Fruk reuniting after some time apart from school. Alfred and Matthew are around 11/12 and Alfred's gotten his first film camera!

1980s Paris. Frenchman who thought he'd never find true love, happily married with kids. (Alfred cried more than Francis did, he's in a soap opera/sappy romance movies obsession phase, that he only falls out of when he's pushing 15- Cried that 'it was like real life movie moment'- He does in this au grow up to be a film director and cinematographer, so there IS a red lining!)

Happy Halloween!!!!! Can we have more monster x human fruk? :D

I bring you a special treat based on this post I made back in July.

-The Next Day...-

Bonus:

[qhimberly]

Shhhhh they’re sleeping. The boys fell asleep listening to their dad tell them a fairytale. This is how Francis found them after coming home from grocery shopping.

[sunnysssol]

Human AU... Francis is like their step dad and Al and Matt are like... 6 or something... and the mug is a gift from the boys :>
