#redacted David

[thottythoughtdaughter]

david shaw.

most importantly david shaw's scratchy five o'clock shadow face buried in the soft part of your neck after he crawls, exhausted, into bed at two in the morning

most importantly the way your arms fit perfectly around his neck and his arms nestle right in that dip between your ribs and hips and his hands feel like heating pads against the small of your back

most importantly the little snuffles and grunts he makes as he gets comfortable

most importantly the way you pretend to be sleeping because he get softer, vulnerable, more gentle when he thinks you're not paying attention. because old habits die hard, but also because david thinks it means more when nobody is looking.

most importantly david who treasures you because he never thought he'd get married or fall in love once he became alpha and here you are.

most importantly david who smells like warmth and outside and the forest and something sharper and rougher than all of that. david who smells like soft sheets and home.

most importantly, now you can wear the shaw pack hoodie and claim that it does in fact have your name on it.

most importantly referring to yourself as "mrs. shaw" or "mr. shaw" or "mx shaw" or whatever you want but you're HIS. you have his name on you. forever.

most importantly, david shaw loves you, and it hurts him impossibly so.

Redacted Actor AU(since people enjoyed the last one)

Damien's actor actually had to use real fire, causing him to have slight skin irritation.

The inversion was the hardest to film due to the number of backup characters, stunt doubles, makeup, and how hot and loud the set was.

Kody's actor was cut from production, so Kody had to be killed off during the inversion (his actor wouldn't show up for the kill scene, so Kody had to be implied as dead).

Huxley's actor was immediately cast as Huxley due to his size compared to his co-stars.

Sweetheart's actor is a music artist, and it shows during scenes when they're with Milo's actor.

Darlin's actor and Alexis's actor genuinely don't like each other.

The non-canon scenarios are actually deleted scenes, and the AUs are a spinoff series.

Gavin got an incubus tattoo underneath his navel, and nobody knew about it besides FL's actor.

Darlin's actor goes from wearing the traditional black leather jacket to wearing Sam's flannels later in the season.

Sweetie once passed out on set.

Guy's actor randomly sings during filming, but it never gets deleted or refilmed because it fits his character.

Lovely's actor did the math for Vincent's age while they were hanging out and randomly looked up at his actor , saying, "You're 40?!"

Milo's actor has a bunch of cat items in his trailer for Aggro, plus a bean bag chair for SH's actor (they're always in his trailer after getting ready for filming).

Xavier's actor had to leave to pursue a calmer career, and everyone made bracelets for him before he left after shooting the inversion (he stayed for the rest of filming even though he wasn't playing Xavier anymore).

The episode before Vincent died was actually an older episode when Vincent and Lovely's actors were slightly younger (Lovely didn't have an official nickname at the time, so they were just known as "the person who sat next to Vincent on the ride").

Sam Has been too specsavers (do they have that in America?) once and plans to keep it that way.

Probably only has one pair of glasses that hes had for 10+ years and are severely damaged and refuses to get new ones.

I also hc that Darlin wears contacts.

They think their to badass for glasses.

sam has reading glasses and i will die on that hill. YUP I SAID IT

Cyanbug's Redacted Audio Headcanons

(Some of these I might use/did use in fics, but others are just there)

1. Huxley had a bunny growing up. It was potty-trained and very curious about all the flowers his moms' and him would bring into the house. They had to keep the lilies locked away in a different room, to make sure the bunny didn't eat any of them.

2. Babe got a stick and poke tattoo of an outline of a wolf on the lower part of their thigh, as a teen. It wasn't the best, and it's pretty much faded now, but they remember how upset their mom was about it when she found out. They forgot that they couldn't wear shorts or else she'd see.

3. Babe also used to go explore abandoned buildings when they were younger. They mostly went to this one building that used to be an old gristmill, but stopped going there when the roof collapsed after a bad storm. They did it to escape to a place where it was quiet, but sometimes they'd bring a friend along to go exploring. They have a bunch of printed photos from those times.

4. Asher likes to joke with Darlin' that they should serenade Sam by playing "Your Man" by Josh Turner. (baby lock them doors and turn the lights down low-)

5. Smartass was in love with horses as a kid, and would ask for a horse/pony every birthday growing up (they never got one). But they used to collect horse figurines, and still have them in a box somewhere.

6. Asset's favorite board game as a kid was "Chutes and Ladders".

7. For a year or two, David was a social toddler, but at the end of preschool he started to get really shy (nobody really knew why). The only time he seemed to open up was when Asher was around, but was never as social as he once was.

8. Christian likes to go zip-lining and he and Amanda once went on a date to one of those zip-lining and ropes courses.

9. Amanda had braces as a kid, and in her early teens, but she got them off before she headed into high school. She preferred getting neon pink rubber bands.

10. Sam got the chicken pox as a kid (his Grandma mostly took care of him for that week or so when he was sick), and one of the first good things he realized after he got turned into a vampire was that at least he wouldn't have to worry about shingles (or vaccines in general) anymore.

11. Hush doesn't really care for cheese, but whenever Doc gets something that has gooey cheese, they'll let him do the first cheese pull since he likes seeing how far he can get it to stretch. So far he's managed 16 inches with cheesy bread sticks.

12. Aaron likes Neo-Expressionism art.

13. DAVID AND ANGEL GET A CAT. They originally were going to get one after their honeymoon, but then that didn't happen because life got busy again. David thought getting them a cat might be a good [insert holiday] gift, and the two of them could go pick out one at the humane society. But then one day David found a kitten on the street as he was walking by with Milo. The kitten just waddled right up to the two of them and actually seemed to like David. So he takes it home, especially because if Milo were to take it, Aggro would have a problem sharing his people (someone made a headcanon of that awhile ago and I AGREE. Aggro doesn't like to share. He wants to be the one and only best boy. I'll have to find it later. Shout out to whoever thought of it.) And voila. They have a cute little kitten now and are cat parents :D (I have a draft of this storyline, i just haven't finished it)

14. Treasure is really into bats and has been since they were a kid. Their family would always buy them bat stuff as a kid and into adulthood, so they have a lot bat themed things. They also have an old 3rd-grade informative essay, explaining different types of bats, hidden away in a folder. They wanted to be a zookeeper as a kid, specifically so they could take care of the fruit bat exhibit. Porter thought it was ironically funny when he first was invited to their home and the amount of things related to bats (and in correlation, vampires) that they owned.

15. Lovely plays the Sims A LOT (they like to build houses or other buildings the most).

Now I KNOW wolves only come in at puberty but humour me for a second

Imagine baby shifter cubs going through their teething stage, and shifting to bite anything and everything in sight, but mainly their parents. And since they're so gosh darn small, they can only reach their ankles.

Now imagine baby David being an incessant biter, and his mom being his target of affections. Imagine his mom adoring him so much she got the bites tattooed onto her ankles.

Now imagine that when she died, Gabe got them tattooed onto his, they're one of the strongest reminders he has of her and he used to trace over them when he felt lost, they were all David knew of his mom, and it was enough to show how dearly she loved him.

Also imagine Colm not having any memories of Milo's teething, because he was never around, leaving Marie to deal with all of it. She not once complained about it though, she loved watching Milo grow. But in the latest hours of night and rarest of occasions, when Colm would finally come back home sober, he'd kiss Marie's head and apologise for himself, and hold and cradle her and little Milo-even though he was well asleep.

Imagine him smoothening his hand over his son's curls and holding his wife, and bending down to kiss the imprints of bite marks from his little wolf cub.

Those were brief glimpses into the perfect, loving home and family they used to be, the family they could be, and for those rare nights Marie felt whole. Until morning came and he was gone, back to cards and booze.

Neither of the now grown wolves have any recollection of their teething love, all they remember is childhood's harsh bite.

[sunsickcrab]

this is sam and darlin and gavin and freelancer and david and angel if you even care

[itsrubesshawty]

I just randomly thought..

What if Sam didn’t tell darlin about Fredrick and bright eyes at the beginning of their relationship.

Like do you think darlin was just chilling at Sam’s house n started wondering around and like bumped into either Fredrick or bright eyes

And they’d be like ‘wtf.. this mf has kids’

[kathleen-koi]

Do you think shifters would get offended if you meowed at them?

[literallyangelshaw]

A real man is pathetic and poetic. Like David! And Sam.. and Aaron.. and Porter...and Vincent.. and Gavin..

[dahlia-tourism-board]

Okay, after some rumination, here's what I think some of the boys look like:

DAMN Crew

Damien: Black hair that he keeps just a bit on the long side. Piercing blue eyes. Pale. Strong runner's build. 5'10

Huxley: Light brown hair in a crew cut, though he tends to go for long stretches of time between haircuts. Warm green eyes. A bit of a tan. Rugby player's build. 6'1

Lasko: I HC him as black with close cropped hair. Looks younger than he is. Big brown doe eyes. Skinny and scrawny, poor thing. 5'8

Gavin: Can change his appearance at will, but has a default look he likes to stick to. Shoulder length auburn hair. Gray eyes. Thin but toned. 5'10 (He likes being the exact same height as Damien, just to bug him)

Shaw Pack

Asher: Dirty blond hair that he keeps kinda fluffy. Big goofy grin with teef! Very faint freckles on very light skin. Light brown eyes with wildly long lashes. A bit of a sleeper build; he looks thin but is surprisingly strong. 5'10 (and a half, as he likes to remind everyone)

Milo: I HC him as Italian-American. Curly black hair he keeps just long enough to style. Dark brown eyes. Light olive skin. A bit of a strong man build; muscular but a bit on the thicc side (He will devour a home cooked meal). 5'6

Tank/Darlin: Shoulder length dark brown hair in rough, choppy layers. (I imagine they cut it themself). Hazel eyes. Light brown skin, covered in scars. Looks like they could rip a log in half with their bare hands. 5'9

David: True body builder physique. He is strong. Very well maintained crew cut. 6'4. That's all I got for him, I have no idea what he looks like otherwise.

Christian: A basic white boy with medium brown hair. 5'9

Solaire Clan

Sam: Honestly, the best I got is a cross between Jensen Ackles and James Marsden, but with a bit more stubble. 6'1.

[communisticbones]

hey guys, i’m back.

[jasmine-loves-writing]

Theres two sceneries here Angel got these and begged David to wear them or Asher got them and babe happily went along with it

[damnbtway]

babe whats wrong youve barely touched your sandwich repurposed and made from the crushed up mp3 recordings of the shaw pack smash tournament audio

[mushroomerchant]

I don’t usually have a lot head-canons for characters but i keep seeing too many people making my guys too normal. here’s some of my headcanons:

- Darlin addressed Sam only as exclusively “Collins” for a long time. David actually called him Sam before they did. Darlin first called him by his name after the pack meeting. They are not a pet names person, except in cases when they are especially sentimental or tired. They’ll curl up in Sam’s arms, sighing with exhaustion, and play with his stubble while they call him “hun”

- Angel’s a furry. They got into it in middle school, wore those tail belt clips that scene kids would wear. During high school, they were too embarrassed to admit it but in college they made some furry friends and became more open about it. Angel is a very “act as weird as possible in the beginning to scare off the haters” person so they talked about it openly within the second date. Angel is a beginning artist. They usually just had concepts of designs and didn’t know where to go from there but they’re getting better at putting time into learning and improving their art. After a while of them dating, David noticed that they started drawing him in their furry art, having made a fursona for him. It was a fluffy black dog with a lot of piercings. He corrected them that his fursona would absolutely NOT be a dog. This prompted them to interview him about what it WOULD look like. (give me ideas on what his fursona would be, i’m having trouble brainstorming). Angel owns a partial fursuit, as in the head, feet, and hands. David is not interested in getting a fursuit but he has worn Angels paw gloves a few times at their request (everything else wouldn’t fit)

- Asher loved gauges throughout his entire teenagehood. He got his ears pierced at 14 and stretched them throughout high school and college. He had fairly big gauges until they got torn out on a job. They healed but the gauges are much smaller now. He loved the look of how they were before but it freaks him out too much to get them that big again.

Honey owns rats, two of them and they’re sisters. (i’m still thinking of names) Guy was a bit weirded out by them at first. He didn’t say anything about it but their tails freaked him out so he didn’t want to hold them. They quickly grew on him. He carries them around in Honey’s hoodies pockets all the time and he loves cuddling with them. Kayla hated them, refused to look at or deal with them. It was one of the things that created tension between them.

- Starlight is selectively verbal, usually verbally shutting down when upset so they use sign to communicate. Avior learned from them when they first were trapped together so Starlight was very impressed with his signing the second time. They didn’t expect a random demon to know ASL

[porcelaininkpot]

Time for the most important question of the century

Which redacted character is this.

[pagesupinflames]

angel has kind of been. pavloved. to davey’s type of music.

they can’t help it. there’s this sense of stability, this comforting feeling that they get in their stomach when they hear his music play on the radio through bluetooth and they can feel his hand on theirs, sat on her lap with his thumb stroking at their skin like they’re delicate and made to be handled with care. they’ve memorized the lyrics by now, humming the tune to themselves as they slowly drift to sleep in the comfort and presence of their husband.

they listen to his music when he’s out late and sleep has become a foreign concept to them. they huddle up with a pillow engulfed in an old t-shirt that still smelled of their david—squeezing at the plush cotton with the music gently drifting them away, reminding them of his warm that they couldn’t mimic even with a heated blanket and more stuffed animals they could never need in a lifetime. they didn’t need to like the song; they liked david, and that was all that truly mattered in their eyes.

before they even realized it, darkness shrouded their mind in a deep slumber, and the shaw pack alpha would find himself stroking his angel’s hair as his favorite song seeps through their headphones like his soul with every pore in his body when he’s by their bedside.
