#redacted David

[aimedis]

dad!david texts his kids everything ominously

"Okay..."

"Love you. Get home safely..."

"Remember to close the door."

and angel makes fun of him for it all the time

[tankwiththeangst]

Yall not gonna like me for this one…

Slight NSFW under the cut!

Yall can’t tell me that if Sweetheart and David had sex it wouldn’t be some of the craziest sex the world has ever seen!

LIKE COME ON! SOMEONE SEE MY VISION!

I’m not saying YOU have to ship them! But like you can’t tell me it wouldn’t be interesting!

David and Sweetheart are both freaks. If you have patreon then you know what I’m talking about!

That would be some dangerous sex

[themeridian]

i wonder if empowered pplz have to worry about human politics ?

like are david, angel, asher, and babe worried abt their marriage??

are they all voting kamala??

can d(a)emons even vote??????

[moronkyne]

It’s hard to lead. That’s not a question nor is it a contingency.

For David, everything seemed almost effortless to Gabe. Paperwork…sure, Gabe would stay up later, maybe have a migraine or…few…but he’d get it done. A fight within the pack? Hell, running the company? That was Gabe. That was a leader. That was a role model—That was who David aspired to be. That was a Shaw.

When your lungs seal tight, eyes go sour, heart throbs, and throat goes numb…time won’t stop. Legacy won’t stop. Not when it flashes before your eyes, not when you wish the day would be over. Not when you cut your hair, not when you tie it up. Not when you wash your face with ice cold water and not when you burn your skin in a scorching hot shower.

David wasn’t Gabriel. David could never be Gabriel. Gabriel had a mate, a son, no foundation—A dream. A want. David had nothing but pressure, the loss of his father, and anger. Anger at life, at inevitably, at the roads, at his father.

David was angry at Gabe. Angry at him for leaving him here. Angry at him for bringing him into this life. David was angry at his existence.

Time can run, the clock can tick. David was never going to live the life he dreamed of. Not with some high school sweetheart that he never managed to…well, manage. Not with Asher. Not with children, not with a stable foundation. Not with Gabe.

David wasn’t Gabe…and he’d wonder if that was for the better. If seeing his father’s reflection in the mirror was enough tournament. If hearing his mother’s honey sweet voice in his dreams was enough to keep him going. If his saving grace was his Angel. If grief was his redemption. If feeling the blood drain out of his cheeks in a cold, cold stadium was enough to scare him shitless—not for himself, not for the company, but for the gashing scar that ran across Asher’s chest. If it all made him someone Gabe would be proud of.

💫🌔David angst🌖💫

David who finds his old baby blanket after years on a week when Angel is away on a “girls' trip” for the bachelorette

David sat on his bed, watching videos struggling to sleep without knowing whether the angels were safe or that one of the other pack members had heard from their mates

David who starts spiralling a little more then he should, and instinctively goes to find angels hoodie, just to pretend for a little that they are in the bed…

He knows Angel steals his hoodies, he knows they took one of the hoodies with them so what's the harm in him doing something similar right?

However, instead of finding his mate's hoodies, he finds a box he tucked into the corner of the wardrobe during moving-in week, all his baby stuff, he had taken the box out of storage years ago to look at old photos of his family, photos that where still in there at the top of the box…

He took the box over to his bed, angel hoodie tucked on top of it, he set the hoodie on his lap as he looked inside the box, his baby blanket sat under the photos, he didn't want to just toss it to the side, so he wrapped it around his shoulders, pretending it was a hug from his mother, it still smelt like home, the smell of his dad. His mum. Both of which were engrained into his senses, he looked through all the photos, and at some point, he put of fallen asleep

When he woke up he was clutching an angel hoodie, blanket still wrapped around his shoulders, sun peaking in through the bottom of the curtain

He didn't want to move, he felt safe. For the first time since the inversion, since the angel had left him to sleep alone, he felt grounded

He stayed like that until he got a call from an angel…

Now that I've noticed that some of yall highkey fw David x Sweetheart here's some totally funny and totally not angsty hcs /blurbs

(I was being sarcastic. This is angsty.)

>Both David and Sweetheart fooled around a lot. David says it was casual. Sweetheart says otherwise.

> after the wedding sweetheart went to go take a bath but they didn't, they just laid in the empty bathtub listing to Good Luck Babe!, Picture You, And Casual by Chappell Roan.

*they still love Milo, but there's always that one person that someone will always have feelings for regardless of their dating status

> sweetheart absolutely refuses to text David unless if it's an emergency, all together the both of them have maybe texted 5 times

> Sweetheart and David both collectively agree to never speak a word about it because of how messy it is

>Asher is onto them but hasn't connected the pieces, or maybe he has and now that David is married he for sure won't say anything.

[do0dlfex]

i headcannon that Milo Asher and David all communicate via Discord but used to use Skype to talk back in the day

[escapisttt]

a little late for this but idgaf. my university shut down for election day so have my thoughts on redacted couples costumes!!

milo and sweetheart: morticia and gomez addams DUHHHH AND THEY ACT LIKE IT. this or kermit the frog and miss piggy (you can choose who’s who but in my heart of hearts milo is miss piggy c’mon now)

david and angel: toji fushiguro and the fucking worm from jujutsu kaisen. david was convinced because of how simple the costume is for him; just slapped on his black muscle compression t-shirt and found some big ass pants and called it a night. meanwhile angel slathered their entire body + their tank top and shorts in purple paint and put on a bald cap. (david carries angel on his shoulders the entire night)

asher and baabe: cruella deville and ash just as a dalmation dog (baabe is dragging him around with a leash and he’s living his best life) this or mermaid man and barnacle boy.

sam and darlin’: octavious and jedidiah from night at the museum come ON. literally no question about it. if sam was more fun, darlin’ would have them go as clawdeen and draculara from monster high, but he will probably never cave.

group shaw pack costumes: the walking dead themed. sam is rick. david is negan. ash is glenn. milo is michonne. darlin’ is daryl. sweetheart is maggie. baabe is carol. angel is carl. and they’re not dressing based off of the characters’ relationships within the show or else things would be weird.

vincent and lovely: just any tim burton couple. jack skellington and sally? emily and victor from corpse bride? edward scissorhands and the girl whose name i forgot? it’s either that or walter white and jessie pinkman.

damien and huxley: deadpool and wolverine (again you can pick who’s who but i think it’s obvious)

gavin and freelancer: donkey and dragon from shrek. to be clear gavin is the dragon and he’s wearing a slutty pinkish-reddish dress with his tail on full display, a pair of fake wings, and a full face of makeup while freelancer is in a donkey onesie from walmart or something. oh and caelum dressed up as the gingerbread man.

lasko and dear: if you wanna go basic, milo thatch and kida from the animated atlantis movie. but that’s boring and lasko doesn’t just wanna be himself. so if you wanna be fun and accurate about it, they’d be gimli and legolas from lord of the rings. lasko is gimli. let him live out his d&d, fantasy-loving dreams.

porter and treasure: phantom of the opera and christine. masc treasure can dress up in a white suit or just anything fancy and white, doesn’t have to be a dress. i just need phantom!porter hnnngh. alternatively if they’re feeling a little goofier they’d go as marceline and princess bubblegum from adventure time.

anton and his lover: no one talks about them enough i will bring them up at any opportunity. that being said, wall-e and eve. anton is wall-e and his lover is eve and they hold a little plant together. i’m crying.

[grilledcheezy92]

You just know Angel would be making craddle robbing jokes if they were even a MONTH older than David.

[magicalmagpie]

I like to think that when a member of the pack gets in trouble, it's expected for David to be mad. But when Angel is also mad, then they know they're in real deep shit

[sincerelywhistler]

Tight squeeze

Bonus Davey image because I know no self restraint (& the actual post)

[themeridian]

being in a creative writing class means writing shaw pack as teens fanfic and trying to keep covert in it and turning it in as an adventure story

[yournewmusictaste]

friendly reminder that:

"Shaw" in Gaelic means wolf.

"Talbot" means light-colored breed of hound.

"Greer" means alert, watchful, and swift.

The Shaw Pack Wedding 🕊️

(Ft. My beloved @angelicaether ‘s Angel and David)

Hot Boy Honeymoon event on the Sky Side server~

This time the theme is weddings and honeymoons in honor of the pack wedding!

The things that audio made me feel was SICK I LOVED IT SO MUCH

Here’s my quick notes it—

Nothing will ever take me out quicker than Asher’s “I’m gonna be a husband!” It’s been on loop in my head since the video came out and it’s never going away

The listeners silence will never not be funny to me, I’m sorry—lowkey wish Sam was a part of the mate car tho, could’ve gotten wolf time too pleasee

Y’all heard Milo’s inner Lasko slip out there when talking about being nervous with Sam right lmaoo

Hey so fuck you David for that beautiful speech you gave Ash, I’m literally rolling on the floor choking and sobbing (It was actually his vows to Asher, if you wanted to him instead should’ve just said so /pos) that “more words” part was actually very real and hit too hard

I’m too much of a sucker for when any of the wolf boys hug

“We still got enough time for me to beat your ass and get you cleaned back up, Beta-boy” quoted at least once a day

Milo’s voice crack when he tells Asher ”I love you too, asshole, come here.” MY BOYSSS 😭

Also fuck you too Milo for the Gabe quote

More silence, but the crying and whimpers from both of them in the background please be still my heart

WE’RE MARRIEDDD‼️

Bonus of Angel and Baaabe’s vows written by Aether and yours truly—

redacted asmr headcanons pt.3

-darlin’ gives sam puppy dog eyes all the time both with or without their own acknowledgement (they bite their lip too and it drives sam fucking insane)

-asher and baabe are literally johnny and mavis 

-vincent and lovely are always together. always. (where one is, the other is not far behind) 

-gavin telling freelancer they’re pretty every single day

-“your eyes are so pretty” was one of the first things coworker said to lasko and he stopped breathing for a solid minute

-under extreme stress, cutie loses control of their powers and it can either make them slide out of someone’s head or into everyone’s head (during the inversion they could hear everyone’s thoughts and they were trying to fight off a panic attack the whole time)

-milo and darlin' make fun of each other’s trauma (milo: “that’s why your dad doesn’t fucking love you” darlin': “your dad doesn’t love you either, bitch”)
