Sandy works the phone and scheduling at a hauling company, she wishes it as a bit more glamorous secretary work than it is. Her real goal is to do Avon.

What do you think Buck and Bucky would’ve done for work in the modern era? Would they still have joined the military at any point?

Fun question! I think there's a wide range of possibilities here, because we can headcanon various ways in which the modern world with its social and historical context affects their canon backgrounds and interests. Some ideas:

Gale as a professor/scientist - if his intellectual interests have the most freedom to grow

Bucky working in finance - with his people skills and the mix of risk taking and an ability to assess situations well

Bucky as a project manager - charisma + leadership skills. But needs an assistant to do the administrative stuff that he couldn’t care less about

Artist Gale - trauma coping (my painter Gale WIP)

Social worker Gale - if he goes "no child should ever go through what I did"

Firefighter Bucky - seeking heroism and danger (see @trashbag-baby666 's firefighter AU)

Coach Bucky

Bucky as an athlete - @r-catsby 's baseball AU

Pilots - I really like @hogans-heroes headcanons about this

Both still joining the military - @bcolfanfic's young vets AU

Both drifting in their own way due to their issues - @swifty-fox 's priest Gale x burnout John AU

This turned into a rec list haha 😅 This is just a quick list, there are so many other possibilities! I'm particularly fond of scientist Gale. 🩷

Headcanon that Dick's siblings (-Tim, he knows everything) have no idea that he has a new job every time, and think he's still a cop.

Like Dick every time they mention his police job and he says "I'm not a cop anymore, I'm..." and he names something different every time, they think he's lying.

Jason: Isn't it ironic? One brother is a cop and the other is a crime lord.

Dick: Although I'm not a police officer anymore, I'm a gym teacher.

Jason, thinking he's being sarcastic: Yeah, and I'm not a crime lord anymore as well.

Dick: Good for you.

Damian: Richard, why aren't you in the office? I thought this was your working hours.

Dick, who went to pick up Damian from school: Now I work in the afternoon and at night, I am a bartender.

Damian, doesn't believe him because Dick is Nightwing at night: hm...

Steph, on the phone : Dick, do you think you can get me some reports from the office? There's a case here in Gotham and I think it's spread to Blüdhaven, they probably have them there in the records.

Dick: Steph, I haven't been a police officer for months, but I'll see if I can get through an ex-colleague for you. I'll call you later, I'm in the middle of a photo shoot.

Steph: ok, thank uuuu.

Steph, hanging up the call: If he didn't could help me right now he could say so, there was no need to make up that excuse.

Cass: He might be in an undercover job right now.

Steph: Maybe you're right.

Duke simply refuses to talk to him anymore because he still thinks he's a cop.

Tim: You've been in this job for two months, I think that's a record. Do you like it?

Dick, hanging upside down in the cave: Something like that? I just don't know what I want to do now and I don't want to be unemployed until I decide.

Tim: Hmm... I don't think you want to be in an office again, do you?

Dick: I'm not going back to WE, once was enough for a lifetime.

Tim: Fair enough. Can I at least ask you for a photo shoot for a season to promote the new line?

Dick: Sure, it was fun being a model for a while.

katsuki LOVES seeing you spend his money. you tell him you're having a bad day? he's sending you some money and telling you to buy something nice for yourself. you guys are going out on a date? he reminds you not to bring your wallet—he's got it. and you've reminded him time and time again that he doesn't have to do any of that, that you feel bad spending his money!!! but he doesn't care.

he reminds you every time that he wants to spend his money on you, no matter how big or small. he knows full well that you can pay for the things he buys you. he knows how hard you work for your money, how dedicated you are to your job.

but if he's there, why should you have to worry about anything at all?

“no seriously who did you choose?”

“i chose you”

grover and percy are the platonic soulmates. in the most literal sense possible. i mean, literally nobody in the world, including their respective girlfriends, will ever know grover and percy as well as they know each other. and not just because of their empathy link.

grover was the person who was there for percy the most. he helped percy transition from the mortal world into the greek one. he supported percy in tlt when sally was thought to be dead. grover was percy’s first friend. ever. it’s not fair how people keep forgetting that. grover saved percy’s life.

percy literally did NOT hesitate to save grover when he was kidnapped by polyphemus. percy tried his hardest to be there for grover while grover fulfilled his dreams of finding pan. percy and grover travelled through most of the labyrinth together. grover is the foundation of percy’s best traits. percy saved grover’s life.

there is no other friendship in any of riordan’s books that can compare to grover and percy’s. they’re platonic soulmates. there’s no one like them.

headcanon that tyson thinks percy and annabeth are married. like, he's fully convinced that they're newly weds. and that they just decided to have a private wedding. then one day. percy invites tyson over for dinner with his parents and annabeth. and tyson casually refers to annabeth as percy's wife. and everyone just pauses. but before percy can correct him. annabeth just slyly confirms it and continues setting the table.

Personally, I feel that Lucanis DOES have a suave and flirty side to him (pantry scene style) but it doesn’t come out again until the relationship with Rook settles even deeper post-game.

My headcanon is that he is the type of person to give Rook A TON of space to process all the events they went through over the course of the game. He doesn’t want to overwhelm them with reciprocating grand romantic moves after huge amount of trauma that comes with killing gods and ending a mega blight. Rook offered the same space for him during his own internal battles. He would be content if he never does anything as outwardly flirty as a wall press ever again if I meant that it made Rook uncomfortable in any way.

Yet, the second that Rook dips their toes into a romantic mood then boy oh boy Lucanis would be off to the races. All the classic stuff like dipping them into a kiss or inviting them to dance while he holds a rose in his teeth. The man would go into total Gomez Addams mode for Rook. (We have all seen the scrapped romance storyboards like cmon those are sooooo romantic)

It’s a delicate dance for him, letting Rook take the lead in creating an opening for him to express this strongly emotional side of him. Yet it’s part of the thrill of being in a relationship with Rook, and he is always up for the challenge if it means he gets to pour his love into them.

Evie works as a carhop at one of the drive ins. She likes the short shorts and is thankful the owner hasn’t gone for the roller skate gimmick yet.

I'm just imagining Price walking up to the front door of your job in a full suit.

He's agitated and checking his watch as he starts asking your coworkers where your boss is. They think he's an angry client but he softens when he finally sees you. You hug him, tell him you'll be ready in a minute before running to go retrieve your bag.

You pack up as many of your personal belongings as possible. Your boss takes you to the side with faux concern and annoyance in their tone. They want to know why this (handsome) "mystery man" is here for you.

"I just won the lottery." You smile at your boss, patting them on the shoulder before you walk towards Price.

You wave to all of your coworkers as you leave the building for the final time.

"I quit!"

Not Them still haunting me even on my hike.

More than one hundred miles away from home and I am still unable to escape Them. Not even physically.

I can't anymore. THEY WON’T LEAVE ME ALONE.
