CAN YOU DO CG/ TINY PENTA HEADCANNONS PLEASE???

OF COURSE!!!! I hope you enjoy!!! <3

CG:

He is most definitely a cuddler. He'll hold his baby constantly, carry them around in his arms, giving them a piggy back ride. Really any form of physical contact, he absolutely adores.

The arts and crafts love is still there when he's big, and he'll spend hours helping his baby with whatever they're doing. He'll organize all of their art supplies so that it's little brain friendly, and he'll sit next to them or behind them the whole time, always praising their artwork.

He is also big on matching with the merch!!! If his baby wants him to dress them, he will absolutely dress them in his shirts and sweaters, you name it. He'll also be more than happy to share his personal clothes with his baby, he loves nothing more than seeing them in one of his own hoodies.

He takes the mask off around his baby. It definitely takes a lot of trust on his part, but he loves his baby more than anything on this earth. (Maybe except Fenix, they're equal) He'll sometimes wear it as a costume thing, to make them giggle.

Hand decorates sippy cups and pacifiers if his baby uses them. He'll either fully glam them out to match with his masks, or something that his baby really likes, like a cartoon or certain anesthetic. He is very skilled at Rhinestones while big, surprisingly.

Will buy any and every toy his baby wants. They've had to have talks while both big because he will just drop money the moment he can. He just wants his baby to feel loved, and like he's doing everything he can for them.

LITTLE:

He is MUCH more of a cuddler with someone when he's little. You wouldn't think it's possible, but he's literally glued to his CG at all times. Like, to a concerning point. He will stand in the hallway while they're in the bathroom, pouting.

He has exactly one (☝️) ‘traditional’ little thing, other than his stuffies, and that's a red sippy cup that has dragons on it. Even though he's technically past the age to need to use them, he just likes the feeling.

Listen, this man loves dragons, ok? Like, LOVES dragons. Any clothes he has that have dragons on them? He's wearing it at any possible moment while little. Anything that has a dragon on it catches his eye. He has a winter blanket with a giant dragon on it that he loves to be wrapped in while little.

He shouldn't really be alone with the stove, but he can still cook, and he does well. Nothing like how he cooks while big, but he's GOOD. He loves making Rey/his CG(s) breakfast or little snacks, it makes him feel like he's thanking them for taking care of him.

Doesn't really care for toys. He has his stuffies and sippy, and that's all he really needs little wise. He's more than content to do something outside, go to a park, a restaurant, an arcade, something like that. Even while resting at home, he'll choose to either work on his art, watch a show, or cuddle with his CG(s)

Takes naps! He'll say, once or twice, that he's big enough so he doesn't need a nap, but if Fenix even so much as yawns around him, he's snuggling up to him and holding him till they're both asleep. As long as Fenix is there, he can definitely be convinced to take a nap, especially if they've just been to a park.

[goldsdaydreams]

already commented on ur agere fics but the penta and fenix new scratch my brain so well since I've been trying to slowly come to terms w my agere once more n seeing my special interests in those situations help me :3 thank u so much ur so cool - algae

Ah thank you so much Algae!!! I'm glad I'm cool to at least someone <3

I'm really glad I can be of help, it means a lot to me! Just know you'll always have people supporting you, me included!!!

Penta and Fenix are literally my babies, I'm glad someone else enjoys them!

[goldsdaydreams]

Hi! I was wondering if I could ask for a little Seth? I know he takes care of two littles and a pup, but… doesn’t it affect him too, in some way? Like it does with Randy, or Drew, or even Roman? I’m just really curious! Totally okay if not tho :D

YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN!!!! :D

I hope you enjoys this, feel free to tell me your thoughts/if it wasnt up to youe standards or anything. I really hope you enjoy!!!

[goldsdaydreams]

Randy vs Cody at Night of Champions, how are we feeling y'all?

DON'T REMIND ME OH MY GOD STOOOOOOP

Amyways :)

I choose to believe that after the match, no matter who wins, Cody will demand all the cuddles and kisses from his daddy, and he needs at least 10000 apologizes from Randy for hurting him (even though he's not actually hurt)

The MOMENT they leave that arena, Cody is jumping in his arms and not letting go. They spend the whole rest of the night wrapped around each other, cuddling and watching Octonauts until Cody falls asleep, pacifier in his mouth, clutching onto Randy as tight as possible

[goldsdaydreams]

I'm honestly really curious about your take on regressor Rhea & CG Damian. I have a feeling that she's even more of a menace while small.

I hope you enjoy these!!! :D

And she absolutely would, her and Damian are called the terror twins for a reason

Look. You've seen it. I've seen it. We all know it's happened. Rhea is a meanece when it comes to Labubus while little. She has a collection, and she will very lovingly call them her dolls. Her favorite is one that looks like Damian that they were given by a fan. They all have names and a lot of them have stories. Damian is expected to know each and everyone of their backstories. She tests him on it.

She's stealing his clothes. Without a doubt, every hoodie and sweatpants he owns is ending up in her dresser at one point or another. What's his is hers, and she won't hear otherwise.

She still absolutely loves the whole goth/alternative style while little, and Damian loves it just as much. All of her blankets and toys and stuffies are all black or purple or skulls.

She is the kind of little to absolutely ADORE horror movies while regressed. She will beg Damian to let her watch them, and they'll make movie nights out of it. However any of the terrifier movies are a big no no while she's little.

She doesn't tend to regress too often, and usually not around the other members of Judgment Day. It's nothing against them, she loves and trusts them just as much, it just happens to be only around Damian like 90% of the time.

She loves to give him makeovers. She has cheap makeup for when she's little that she'll sit and apply to his face for as long as he lets her, trying to make him pretty like her. She'll also take markers to his tattoos to make them colorful.

If you think she liked matching before, it gets 10x better, or worse, when she's little. Depending on what shirt Damian's wearing, she has to wear either the same one, or something REALLY close to it/from the same franchise.

Mami knows best, even while little. It takes a lot of convincing (pleading and bargaining) to stop her from doing what she's set her mind to. Usually Damian just sighs and lets her do it, watching carefully, but one time she was determined to climb onto the roof and he had to bargain cuddle time with baby Dom to get her to not do that.

She's not really old enough to handle cooking all by herself, and usually she'll sit on the counter while Damian cooks, and just watch him. However the entire time she does so, she judges him and makes teasing comments about the way he cooks, all while giggling.

He has to hide his weapon collection or firmly lock every door that she could possibly get into, or else she WILL pull a knife off the wall because “it's really shiny and cool papi” She had no sense of danger and he nearly had a panic attack.

[goldsdaydreams]

I’m loving these snippets and hc’s about the littles and caregivers!!!!

I was working out at my gym when I thought what would each little do as their caregiver is working out? Join in? Badly copy? Play or mess up equipment? Or pretend to be weights just to be carried?

Also here’s a napping drew pic!!!!! I’ve been getting these a lot on Pinterest (definitely not squealing each time I see them..)

I LOVE THE NAPPING DREW!!! :D

Pinterest is so wonderful for cute photos of everyone, I love it so much <3333

I hope you enjoy!!!!

DEAN:

He doesn't really ‘work out’ so to say. Taking him to a gym while he's regressed wouldn't really be a good idea. However, he LOVES running around in the backyard, having Seth watch him. If Seth or Roman are working out at home, he'll sit on the floor and babble excitedly about anything he can think of. He can be convinced to do a few push ups though if one of them says they don't think he can do more than them

ROMAN:

He pretends not to be, but he's really too little to properly work out. He'll swear up and down that he can follow Seth's routine, but he'll get distracted so easily. It's a lot for his tiny brain, and trying to keep up with Seth can get overwhelming at times. Usually he'll just leave and find another one of his boys to curl up with, but if he does get overwhelmed, Seth will find his weighted blanket and wrap him in it, rocking him until he's calm.

BRON:

Kinda like Roman, following a routine or doing certain things can be too much for a puppy, and he'll just sit and watch the Shield work out. Seth will have him run around the backyard (maybe even trying to run on all fours) with Dean as a way to “work out”. He will however use Dean or Roman as weights when they're regressed, just to make them giggle.

JACOB:

If he's with someone very, very patient (So, Solo) he will try his hardest to copy him. He'll be a bit sloppy, and isn't able to handle as much weight as he usually is, but he wants to make Solo proud. He'll follow along with whatever it is that Solo's doing, even if it isn't what he would usually do.

DOM:

He's too baby to work out. Either the Judgment Day has to take turns working out so someone can watch him, or they'll call Rey in to babysit him while they go to a gym. He loves to sit in a corner and watch them, babbling away, but he loves ‘working out' with his dad even more. He'll lay across Rey's back as he does push ups, squealing with delight the whole time. Plus, Rey can be very easily convinced to give him a sweet treat afterwards.

JD:

He's actually very good at working out while little, for the first half an hour. He'll be very careful and calm, listening to everyone and following his own routine. However, once he gets bored, he starts fiddling with the equipment the rest of the Judgment Day are using. It gets to a point where they'll either have to give him someone's phone with a cartoon on it, or send someone home with him.

PENTA: Actually really enjoys working out with Fenix while little. He enjoys it while big too, but there's something about the extra care that's there that he loves. He'll follow Fenix's routine the best that he can, listening to his every word. Occasionally Fenix will have Penta pick what they do, and he spends the whole time giggling with joy.

JEY:

Cannot be convinced to go anywhere near a gym while little, unless threatened with no waffle house. That's only used if they have no babysitter for him though. He will quite literally lay down, starfished on the floor. If his CG tells him to do something, he'll lightly lift his legs and say he's exercising. However, if Sami asks really nicely, he can be convinced to lift a (light) weight, he does it to show off for Sami.

PUNK:

Nothing brings him more joy than being with Drew or AJ. If either of them are working out at home, he'll very nicely ask if he can join them. He can't 100% keep up with them, but they'll usually go a bit more gentle, and he loves it. He won't go to a gym or anything while little, even with one of them, but he will happily sit in the car. AC on and his phone playing his favorite show of course.

DREW:

Kinda like Punk, he really won't choose to go to a gym while little, but he does occasionally join Punk or AJ. He will sit in the same room with them if they're home, playing with his action figures (dolls) and pretending he's working out that way.

CODY:

Literally just a baby. You will not catch him doing anything that sorta looks like exercise unless Randy or Brandi is there. Even then, it's him having them lift him up, or sitting/laying on Randy's back. He loves it when either of them pick him up and hold him, and the first time Randy held him bridal style and started to curl him, Cody laughed out of pure delight so hard he cried.

[goldsdaydreams]

Hii,

Would you ever write little Randy?

Hii!!!!

I may consider it

Maybe

Just a bit

Maybe a whole lot

To the point where I wrote it

I hope you enjoy!!! :D

[goldsdaydreams]

hii !! been keeping up with your wwe agere oneshots on Ao3 and wanted to request some more bron & seth fluff ? they’re like my fave pairing rn lol !

- xx , mc <3

Hi Mc!!! So uh.....I wrote this as fluff, I swear. Like I opened my google docs happily and smiling and excited.....and then it just turned into angst I'M SO SORRY I'M A SUCKER FOR HURT/COMFORT

Even though it wasn't what you asked for exactly....I hope you enjoy!!! And if you want to, totally feel free to send me another ask and I'll find something completely angst free to write about! <3

[goldsdaydreams]

Could you write CG Finn headcanons please?

Of course!!! I hope you enjoy :D

Not the world's biggest cuddler, but he won't complain if his baby wants to be held. He is a master at swaddling someone in a blanket and just scooping them up to carry them around.

He's an okay cook, but better than some people (cough cough Roman) However he is an AMAZING baker. He loves spending hours and hours in the kitchen with his baby, teaching them how to properly measure, combine, etc. However, only he is allowed to touch the oven.

If it's bedtime/naptime and his baby won't sleep, he will lay with them and tell them bedtime stories to get them tired. However, if his baby doesn't speak Irish, he will tell the stories in Irish and say that they don't understand because they need to sleep. He does this a lot, especially to Dom.

He has probably the world's largest collection of coloring books and crayons. Any theme- dinosaurs, disney, hello kitty, marvel, other trademarked brandsTM, he has it all. He has them very, very organized, and he knows which little prefers which one. JD has his own crayon box though because he grips them so tight they break.

If his baby likes it, he 1000% plays into the Demon role. He knows that it can be scary, especially for little ones, so he's really careful about it, but he will use Demon Balor instead of something like “the tickle monster”. He gets a kick out of it too, he secretly loves dressing up for it.

Speaking of which. Goes ALL out for Halloween. Like, every inch of his house is orange, and every single outfit he dresses his baby in for the entire month of October is going to have some form of Halloween theme. He'll sit and spend hours carving pumpkins with them, designing costumes, making decorations. (One year JD asked to go as Demon Balor. Finn happy cried for an hour in the bathroom before he said yes)

[goldsdaydreams]

I have a suggestion!

Imagine Bron as a guard dog, whether on accident (like someone tries to attack a member of the Shield) or Bron just sees it as his duty to protect his family like how a dog normally would. I imagine it would be a mixture of cute that Bron wants to protect them in his headspace and maybe a bit scary for the littles.

Anyway even if you don’t do anything like that I love your writing!

Thank you so much, I'm glad I make something you can enjoy!!! :D

I hope I did this justice, even if it isn't 1000% what you described-

I just uh......really hope you don't like Logan Paul, because if so, I apologize sincerely. Enjoy this meme I made to go with it

https://archiveofourown.org/works/66755644

[goldsdaydreams]

This morning, my dad took me to get donuts. While he was in the auto parts store, one of our dogs jumped up onto the console between the front seats and took a bite out of my donut. I feel like that’s something Puppy! Bron would do, randomly steal a bite of Seth’s food on occasion.

No meme today, instead, here’s a mugshot (photo) of Penny (the culprit of the crime stated above lmao).

NLFJQOSJ THE MUGSHOT IS SENDING ME. The doggy just wanted a treat 💔

Also, my favorite stuffie is named Penny! :D

And absolutely he does. He bites to show love, he'll just randomly go up to Seth and just bite his shoulder or something as an 'I love you'

He WILL sit next to Seth/Dean/Roman, whoever, and just slide random bites of their food onto his plate/just straight into his mouth if he's regressed. They don't even realize he's doing it at first till they realize he's sitting there eyeing them like 👀. You know the look dogs give you when they've done something bad, he absolutely does it too. However ☝️, Dean can absolutely be convinced to give him food when Seth says no. Just a promise that he'll run around in the yard with Dean and he'll essentially give him table scraps. Roman is a lot harder to convince, he wants to be good, but a promise of cuddles is usually enough to convince him.

[goldsdaydreams]

What finally gets The Miz to snap out of denial?

Funnily enough, it's R-Truth. Miz would be in one of his "moods" where everything's fuzzy and overwhelming, and he just wants to lay down (he's actually regressed) when he (physically) runs into R-Truth. Miz gets a bit of a stutter type thing when he's little, and he over apologizes while nearly crying. R-Truth (having already babysat Cody a lot at this point) calls him "little dude" and says it's fine. There's just something about the way Truth says it that makes something click in Miz's brain. He still won't know what his regression is actually called until Truth explains it to him later, but that's when he excepts that there's something different about him, and it's not necessarily a bad thing.

[goldsdaydreams]

Your headcanons legit make me so happy!! Can I request so random CG Roman ones?

Of course you can!!! And I'm so glad I can make you happy :D

I hope this is what you were looking for :3

As previously stated, he's VERY big on physical affection. Hand holding, holding their shoulder, their waist, anything to be close to his baby. If whoever he's looking after takes naps, he will absolutely spoon them, taking a nap too.

He absolutely knows how to braid hair like a pro. It doesn't matter what texture of hair it's on, he can and will make the most intricate designs if given the chance. He especially likes it because it makes him feel closer to his baby, and the repetition is calming for him and his little.

He's an…..ok cook. He can cook basic meals, and he could follow a recipe book to produce a decent dish if his baby wants, but it takes a lot of focus. He's much more likely to have someone else cook, or if the puppy eyes are pulled out, he'll order (somewhat healthy) fast food.

His favorite nickname to use is “his little flower”. That, and/or “his little tribal chief” if he's feeling funny. The nickname isn't necessarily feminine, he just means it as something to take care of, something to love and coddle, like how he views his baby.

He'll let his baby color in his tattoos. Even though it's not something to “technically” color in, He'll let them take rainbow markers in between the lines and everything, he'll sit very silently and just let them color away.

He has a baby bag with all of his little's stuff in it. Pacifier, blanket, stuffed animal, any basic things they would need. It's always either in his closet, in a hotel room's closet, in the trunk of his car, or stuffed in his locker room. He needs to be prepared at all times

This man MATCHES. Any oufit that isn't pajamas, he'll try his hardest to be in an oufit that looks somewhat similar. When it comes to pajamas, he will try to dress his baby in his merch.

“I promise it's a totally normal pajama shirt this time.” And he hands them an oversized ‘Head of the Table’ shirt.

[goldsdaydreams]

Update:

Roman: Roman INSISTS that he is older, like 8/9, but he's really around 4. He does a horrible job at convincing everyone that he's big, everyone knows he's little.

Bron: He doesn't really have an age when he's in his puppy-space, he just knows that he's young. He can't really take care of himself, he needs someone else to be there for him

Drew: He's 6. He's just there in the space where he'll argue that he's a big boy, but he LOVES being babied and cared for.

What's everyone's little ages in your fics?

OK SO SETTLE IN, THIS IS A LONG ONE!!!

Mankind: 5. He's more often than not in a sort of little headspace when he's with Gold, even if he's not fully regressed.

Dean: 5, but he enjoys more “younger” kid things, like his pacifier. However he gets younger (about 3) if he's really really stressed out, or if he's had his body weight in sugar

Jey: 6. He definitely acts like he's older and he's the boss whenever he's with another little, except for Punk.

Jacob: 5. Not age related, but he only regresses around Solo like, 99.99999% of the time. Even if he wants to, he won't unless he's with his cousin.

Cody: 3-4, but he gets younger occasionally. Especially after Mania and his feud with Cena, he got to around 1, maybe 2

Punk: 8-9. He's like an older brother to any of the other littles. He's never gotten younger, he enjoys being sort of a big kid.

ALSO!

For one's I haven't written about but feel like they're also littles:

Seth: He's a flip, but like Jacob, only when it comes to Roman. He's around the same age as Dean the majority of the time.

Penta: Like Punk, he's on the older side. He's around 9-10, and he does enjoy it. I also feel like his main (maybe only) caregiver would be his brother, and if it's been an extremely hectic week or so, he'll get a bit younger (think 7) only around Rey

Dom: He is a BABY. Exactly like Cody, he's around 3-4, but it's not uncommon for him to get younger, especially with the OG Judgment Day

Jd Mcdonagh: Around 6. In my perfect world where everyone is happy and no one hurts, he's still in the Judgment Day, and Dom is like his little brother. He's young, but still old enough to care for the baby

Solo: Solo will regress but only ☝️ around his family. Even then he's around 9. The twins absolutely love having their baby brother literally be their baby brother again, and Solo will complain the whole time, but he loves it because it's his family.

The Miz: He's in denial. He's 5, but he has fully and completely convinced himself that needing help with everything and being unable to fall asleep without a pacifier when his head gets fuzzy is 100% "normal adult man” behavior.

[goldsdaydreams]

Even though no one asked, here's the littles favorite thing(s) :)

BRON:

His rope chew toy that he bought. It's the only item he's ever bought for himself, and he bought it before he even knew what his regression was. Chewing on it brings him peace, his favorite thing in the world is to sit in someone's lap (Usually Seth's) and just chew away. It's one of those small dog tug-of-war toys he got from a petco near him, and he brings it everywhere.

CODY:

Cody's is the custom pacifier he got from Brandi and Randy on his birthday. It's a blue and white one, with beads spelling out 'nightmare' on the handle. He cried for an over when he got it, and he can spend just as long tracing over it. Even when he's not little, having it in his pocket brings him comfort. He needs it with him at all times if he is little though, even if he's not using it, he'll throw a fit if it's not near him.

DEAN:

Mr. Quack. Listen, Dean does not like ducks. They are annoying and loud and weird, he just doesn't like them. However his stuffed duck means the world to him. It's a cheap fluffy thing that Roman bought at a rest stop, and he's practically never let it out of his sight since. He can't sleep without it when he's little, it helps calm him down. Even when he's big, if he's being self destructive, one of his CGs will hand him Mr. Quack because he loves it too much to hurt it.

DOM:

Dom's is chicken tendies. The way to his heart is through getting him some nuggies and calling it a day. Joking lol.

His actual favorite thing is a Judgement Day merch hoodie he stole from Damian. He stole it before they found out about his regression, he would curl up in it and pretend he was being held. Now that they know, he wears it constantly, only giving it to someone else either to wash it, or so that they can wear it so it can smell like them.

DREW:

His action figures. He will not let anyone else call them dolls or toys, even though he absolutely refers to them as that when he's little. He loves his collection, and he'll spend hours organizing it if given the chance. He has very detailed stories and intense lore for everyone, even if it has nothing to do with the actual figure. The CM Punk figures however, somehow always end up in some sort of danger, needing to be saved. No idea why though.

JACOB:

Jacob's favorite thing is Solo.

Seriously though, Solo bought him one of those necklace things that you can chew on. It's black with a red wolf paw print on it, and Jacob LOVES it. The feeling of chewing on it is so comforting, he can just sit and lean on Solo for hours. Solo bought it for him when he tried to give Jacob a pacifier and he had completely torn up the plastic nipple within 15 minutes.

JEY:

His stickers. He has a whole collection. Disney, shapes, animals, cartoons, random blobs, animals, you name it, he has it. His CGs are experts at removing stickers from anything and everything, because the moment they turn their back, he's covering something with stickers. His favorite thing is to wait till Jimmy or Sami are sleeping, and cover the men's faces with stickers, giggling silently.

JD:

JD has a blanket with the logo of Finn's wrestling school on it. It's super soft, and for some reason, about 10x the size of a normal blanket. He loves being swaddled in it and cuddled by his CGs and Dom. The only thing that makes it better is if Finn is swaddled in the blanket with him.

PENTA:

His stuffed dragons. Fuego is very loved, and he brings him almost everywhere. He's very loved, but Penta doesn't need him to be comfortable per say, he just likes him. His other dragon, the one named after Fenix however, gets king treatment. It has a special spot on a shelf, a specific spot on the bed, and it is always handled very, very gently. He'll even hold up pieces of his food/his cup to its mouth when (the human) Fenix isn't looking.

PUNK:

His stuffed moose and stuffed bear. AJ bought him the moose, and it was his first official “little” gift. He was attached to it like velcro for a week straight, and AJ had to actually pry it out of his hands when he spilt syrup on it. Drew bought him the bear, and it was also his first official “little” gift from the man. He views the stuffies as proof that they love him no matter what, that they support him in everything.

ROMAM:

His pacifier and his weighted blanket. Everyone is aware of the blanket, he brings that thing everywhere. Everyone knows that if Roman wants to cuddle with them, they better be prepared to have the weight of 1000 sounds on them too. It's almost like being held, and it's even better if he has the blanket and it being held. The pacifier is something he won't admit though. He can't actually really sleep without it, but he'll deny it up and down. Even though he doesn't think less of anyone else for having one, he fears that it'll make his CGs think he's weak.

[goldsdaydreams]

Not agere related but…

I have acquired a baby (happy ghast) and named him Penta because of the harnesses you can have them wear.

PINTEREST MEME OF THE DAY

Aww that's so cute!!! The ghasts are so cute, I need to play Minecraft again. Thank you so much for sharing!!!! :3

And thank you for the meme <333

[goldsdaydreams]

What are the CGs methods of soothing their little ones when they can't sleep?

This is a very long one so I apologize lol, but I hope you enjoy!!!

Jimmy

He has to essentially beg Jey to go to bed if he's not tired, even going so far as to offer candy in exchange for him to just take a nap. However, if Jey wants to go to sleep but can't, Jimmy will wrap them up in the biggest blanket he can find and sing him lullabies that their parents would sing to them as kids, rocking him softly until he fell asleep.

Solo

Jacob sleeps curled up at the edge of the bed. It makes him feel the most safe, and the most like he's protecting Solo. However, if he can't sleep, he'll nuzzle against Solo's shoulder until he lays down, resting his face in the crook of Solo's neck. That's usually enough to help, but if it's not, Solo will tell him how much the family loves him until he falls asleep.

Seth

Dean has a lot of energy, and it's difficult for him to calm down, even when he wants to. On more than one occasion Seth has brought him to the backyard and had him run around a bit so he could sleep. If that doesn't work, a glass of warm milk and honey will usually do the trick.

Roman needs to be held to go to sleep, and usually Dean and/or Bron go to sleep at the same time as Roman to help him. Even if he's being held but can't fall asleep, Seth will spend as long as it takes gently tracing over Roman's tattoo's with a pen. It works every time.

Bron really is like a puppy, so when he crashes, he crashes hard. It's very unusual for him to not be able to sleep, but when he does, Seth will hold him in his lap and gently scratch at his beard and scalp. The motion is extremely soothing to him, and he'll usually be asleep within moments.

Sami

He has an amazing singing voice, even if he denies it. He'll wrap Jey up in their blankets, and sing any lullaby he can think of in Arabic. He'll hold Jey's head to the bottom of his throat so that he can feel the vibrations from the singing.

Roman

He's a holder, so if Dean can't sleep, he just wraps him up in his arms, makes sure that Dean has his pacifier and Mr. Quack, and squeezes as tightly as is comfortable. The pressure makes Dean doze off immediately, even when his insomnia is the most persistent.

He'll do the same thing for Bron if Seth isn't there/is otherwise occupied. He enjoys the motion, and the repetition honestly helps him sleep too.

Randy|Dustin|Brandi

Cody, being the baby he is, absolutely loves naps. That being said, he gets extremely, EXTREMELY fussy when he's tired but can't fall asleep. Crying and blubbering and whining, the whole works. He'll even get snappy. The three of them have figured out the best way to get him to sleep in to give him his pacifier, tuck him into a blanket so tightly he can't escape, and put an episode of octonauts he's already watched on the tv. He's out like a light. If they don't have a tv though, Randy will hold him against his chest and rock him until he falls asleep. Dustin absolutely will lay next to him and dramatically tell his baby brother stories in his 'goldust voice', dramatic inhales included, and it makes Cody comfortable enough to sleep. Brandi will lay his head down in her lap and trace shapes on his scalp with her nails until he drifts off.

Rhea|Finn

Dom needs bedtime stories. No matter where they are, what they're doing, he requires Rhea to snuggle up to him and pull out her phone to read him a story. If that doesn't work, usually a bottle of (very slightly) warm milk will send him to sleep. Finn will tell him the same stories, but in Irish, and tell him he can't understand what he's saying because he needs to sleep

JD very rarely has sleep issues, but if he does, he just curls up with Finn. He'll have Finn talk about his next upcoming match, explaining everything in excruciating detail, until it sends JD right to sleep
