Elisa/Sergiu headcannons pt2:

Elisa loves using Sergiu as a pillow, when she reads a book. Sergiu usually takes this opportunity to show little affections, like brushing her hair with his fingers or small kisses here and there.

Sergiu's pet names for Elisa: love, precious, beautiful.

Elisa's pet names for Sergiu: sweetheart, darling, sweety, cutie.

Inspector helps Sergiu to pick out flowers for his girl. He teaches him the flower language and he is very eager to learn.

He thinks so much about the way Elisa smiles and laughs at work.

When they are out together, they hold hands all the time. There is no force separating them.

They are both distressed by thunder. But now, they at least find comfort in each other's company.

When Elisa was pregnant, at one point, she was reading a book on Sergiu:

“Sergiu.” She looks up at her lover and he looks at her, with his full attention. She gently grabs his hand and guides it to her stomach, as the baby kicks.

Sergiu lets out a squeal of joy and amazement.

He wouldn't recover after this for a while, he is just so amazed. Kept his hands on her stomach for a few hours after that, to feel that life they created.

Sergiu talks to Elisa's belly in the evenings, mumbling sweet things.

He was worrying the whole pregnancy. It's something he always wanted, but he worries if they are going to be good parents, if he will be able to provide.

He goes so much to Calensk and Inspector, for reassurance.

Elisa is worried too, but tries to swallow it and help Sergiu with his worries:

“You worry too much. We've got it good here.” Elisa comes up from behind, wrapping her arms around Sergiu.

“Eli… What if I don't worry enough, there is so much to take into account. What if we are not good enough? What if the unemployment rate gets worse? What if we won't be able to feed and provide? What if we are bringing it to the world with no future? What if the war starts ag-”

“Shhhh You are spiraling again. It's going to be okay.” She kisses his neck. “You are the sweetest and kindest person, I know. And if the world ends, we will protect the kid, just like we protected ourselves. We lived through hell, we can rise it - together.”

Sergiu turns around to embrace Elisa too. These words do little to calm his worries, but they are enough for now.

Elisa sometimes goes to his coworkers for advice, too.

She doesn't really get weird cravings during her pregnancy, but two months in, she can't stand the smell of bread.

When the pregnancy was in the most advanced stages, Sergiu was all around the place, preparing the kids room, to get Elisa to the hospital, the works.

He worries so much that she will go into labor, when he is at work.

(thankfully it just happens in the middle of the night)

Labour is quite long, around 18 hours. He was forced to go to work in the middle of it. He thankfully managed to ask Inspector's wife and uncle to please watch over her,  when he can't.

So unfocused and restless at work.

When he is done, he runs so fast back.

He invited Calensk and Inspector to come over. They barely kept up with him.

When Sergiu's first kid smiles at him for the first time, he almost dies.

He regularly falls asleep with the newborn in his arms, on the couch.

When they eventually have a girl, Sergiu lets her do make-up on him, paint nails, everything. Sometimes he doesn't have time to clean it all out before work. It always causes some small giggles from Calensk and Inspector, but he doesn't mind, it's all in good fun.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Inspector headcannons pt2:

Loves to lean over, pick up his wife into his arms and kiss her deep.

He's not the strongest guy around, but wants to keep in shape, to always be able to pick up his wife and kids.

His niece once made him a friendship bracelet and you can bet your ass, he wore it everywhere, until it broke from wear and tear.

His son continues drawing and his Inspector booth is absolutely cluttered with his drawings.

Him and Sergiu worked out a system of alerting the Inspector, if the Supervisor or the Ministry Inspector comes, to hide all the drawings before they come.

His favorite season is summer. It reminds him of home. He has his reasons to despise his hometown, but he looks fondly on the times, he could get out of the house and go into the nearby forest, or to read a book in a field. Nowadays he also likes the summer, because he can spend more time with his kids outside.

His favorite flowers are roses. Maybe a bit basic, but they remind him of his wife and their wedding.

He likes giving flowers to his friends sometimes too. He once gave Calensk a blue lily, Sergiu some yellow lilies and Elisa a small boutique of mimosas and purple geraniums (don't ask me how he got them).

His favorite drink is hot chocolate. It’s extremely hard to come by in Arstotzka. He only drank it once or twice, when he traveled to Impor for a few weeks. He wishes his kids will be able to taste it too.

His biggest fear is losing someone he loves. He gets very anxious when any of the family members or friends gets sick.

Other than that he has a small fear of open spaces/big open fields. He can't really explain it. It makes him feel dizzy. It started developing sometime in his 30s. And his life circleling, between his small apartment and his inspector booth, is not helping.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Calensk headcanons pt2:

Tastes of coffee and cigarettes. It’s kinda like eating bitter chocolate, the charm is in that bitter taste, but only few like it.

Neck kisses are the ultimate show of affection for him. They are few and far between, but when they happen it's an ultimate show of vulnerability and intimacy.

His favorite season is spring. He will say that it is, because he will finally stop freezing at the post. But in reality he loves the sight of nature coming back to life. The lil flowers popping up here and there. He likes the contrast between his concrete gray workplace and his way home decorated with nice greens, here and there.

His favorite flowers are mountain avens. They remind him of his trips to the mountains, when he was a young adult. 

He sometimes has migraines.

His favorite drink is black coffee. It smells nice and if it's not 90% water, it helps him stand guard, focused.

He is a decent cook.

Sleeps on his back, arms along his body.

Deep inside, he thinks he is unworthy of love.

He can swim quite well, but has a big fear of drowning and rivers. During the war, he saw many bodies being carried away by the river. Some not even being dead, but too weak to resist the current. It scarred his psyche badly.

He isn't triggered by distant thunderclaps, but if a lightning strikes near - the loud bang and the light awaken his deep buried memories. He usually freezes in place for a while.

It was a late evening in East Grestin. The local couple, sleepy, laid in their shared bed. Elisa was reading a book, her eyes lazily moved across the pages, bearly registering what was on them. Sergiu made as her pillow.

A tap against the window glass. It was dark outside. A soft warm light, illuminated the bed, from a small bedside lamp. It gave both lovers a soft glow that danced along their skin and clothes. Only the sounds of calm breathing were there to break, a quite pleasant silence. Sergiu was hypnotized by the movement of Elisa's rising and falling chest. He watched her through half lidded eyes.

Tap tap tap lazily against the window. It was time to go to sleep. Elisa stretched her arms, book still in hand. Then she rolled on Sergiu to put the book on the bed stand and turn off the light. Sergiu snuggled her into being the small spoon. A quick exchange of kisses and off to sleep…

The tapping of rain on the window turned heavy and rapid. Gallons of water started pouring down on the city. The couple was unfazed, every sound in their minds now blurry and mixing, until-

A loud bang and a tremble rolls through the nearby apartments. It shakes them wide awake. Sergiu could feel Elisa jump a little and curl up, in his arms. Flashes of light illuminated the room, turning shadows into crooked shapes, moving quickly across the walls. Water droplets, like bullets, banged rapidly against the window and walls.

Sergiu closed his eyes and tightened his grip on Elisa. Elisa turned to him and nested her head, in the crook of his neck.

And they laid there like that for hours, unable to sleep. Counting in their minds the time between each lightning strike. Holding each other close, finding comfort in others arms.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Bath time Elisa/Sergiu imagine:

not nsfw per say, but there are like plp showering - naked, not graphic but yeah

It's been a long day for Sergiu. He just came back from his long shift, at the border. Hours spent standing in unusually harsh sunlight, only to get cut short by a terrorist attack. Thankfully the threat was swiftly neutralized, but the stress combined, with the unusually warm day, left him tired and sweaty.

He made his way to his shared apartment and closed the door with a sigh of relief. His exhaustion more apparent to him than before. He slides out of his guard uniform immediately and starts heading straight for the bathroom. But then a slim figure blocks his way.

“Sergiu! You are back early, come I made some-” Before Sergiu can stop Elisa, she embraces him tightly. “Dooon't I'm sweaty!” he says, while cracking a smile. He tries to push her away, but she only tightens her grip and kisses him on the nose. “Tough day at work?” Elisa asks softly. “Mhhhmmm…” Sergiu mumbles something incoherent and averts his eyes. She takes him by the arms and tugs him toward the bathroom. Sergiu almost trips on her, but they manage to get there safely.

The moment the bathroom door closes, they start undressing each other. Elisa finds the act unreasonably funny and starts giggling, quickly infecting Sergiu with laughter. They end up naked and folding from laughter. When they calm down, they look at each other, admiring the other body. Elisa takes Sergiu's hand and he takes hers. They walk into the shower together, Elisa leading him by the hand. She turns on the warm water that slowly makes its way down, on them.

They each take some soap and take their  time cleaning one another. Both take their time, to run their hands all over their partner's body. To appreciate all the curves. To sneak some kisses here and there. It's nice, being so close, taking care of each other. Sergiu's scars have healed nicely. Elisa could freely trace them with her fingers, sighing at the memories, but still being so proud and happy, because of how far they have grown.

Once they were done with scrubbing each other and all was left was for the water to do its job, they finished with a big mouth open kiss. Few additional pecks and kisses here and there and they were out. Towel in hand and the whole dance starts again. Wrapped together in a big burrito towel, they keep each other warm. They keep each other safe in their arms. They keep each other happy…

Kissing hc:

Inspector - He is up for anything - tame, deep, passionate, soft. He can be quite experimental, if his partner lets him. He wants to know what fits them best. As for himself, it depends on his mood. When he was younger he liked deep, passionate and needy, aching for touch and affection. Nowadays he is more tame, soft kisses are the usual. Though every now and again, he likes to turn them quite sensual.

Calensk - A very soft kisser. He tastes bitter, like a fine coffee. And he should be treated as such. Soft, every now and again pecks. His taste is to be savored. Though if you need a fine swig of coffee to down your worries, he got you covered too.

Sergiu - A needy kisser. This man needs some love fr. He aches for affection. He will start by quick and sweet pecks on neck, or jawline and move up. Start nibbling at the bottom lip asking for access. Then he will explore the mouth slowly, making sure to savor the moment. He likes soft kisses too, but its when he is able to connect with his lover that he feels the happiest. Also loves to kiss all over the body.

Elisa - She likes soft kisses, but it's the dominant and passionate kisses where she feels the best. Sucking and soft biting. Grabbing the hair and tilting her partner's head for better access. Her kisses leave breathless, but you wouldn't know that unless you were deep, in the embrace of privacy.

+

Sergiu and Elisa cuddling hc:

Sergiu's cuddles are so soft. He's very clingy, likes to sometimes just pull Elisa into a hug randomly and then pull her toward the bed or couch. She usually starts giggling at the sensation and it infects Sergiu, so they end up in a giggling fit, tangled together.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Do you have any hc for jorji? I love your hcs sm btw!!!

gagahagag thank u!! I don't have many hcs from anyone except for the 3 border bros, but I have some stuff thinked up. Just idk if some of it is a lil off/out there, but I hope y'all enjoy

Jorgi headcannons

I have a hc that he is somewhat, far related to the Inspector's wife. Like a “My great-grandmother had 3 kids, but 2 of them went to live aboard and had their own families there. But here only our grandma remembers them, but doesn't keep in contact much.”

That's why he mostly only goes for the checkpoint in Grestin, even if he'd have an easier way through the Obristan-Aristocka border.

Though, he would never tell the Inspector about the family connection.

Many bad things happened to him that led him to take drastic measures, to get money to live. His age, health and education don't make it easy to get a job. So he did many small, less than legal things, to keep himself and his wife afloat. It led him to bigger buyers, his charisma and personality allowed him to charm his way through and make decent connections.

It's way easier to get into Kolechia, than any other country. People there pay decently and there is always a demand. It's just that it's always dangerous to go and sell there. Jorgi got mugged a few times and got beat up pretty badly.

So when an opportunity to sell in Arstotzka presented itself, he eagerly accepted.

He remembered, some relatives talking about their familial connections in Arstotzka and he managed to hear around that one of his relatives worked at the border. So he chose Grestin as his crossing point.

Reason, why he won't mention his familial connection to the Inspector is that he doesn't want to burden him more than he already does, making his job harder. He always has a soft spot for his family and all its members. He is very aware of the situation the Inspector is in, so he just comes around and takes what he can get.

That's also why even if the Inspector rejects him every time, he is willing to help him out and provide a way to Obristan. If that ending happens, Inspector's family really does go to meet with his distant relatives. He goes there to get help with relocating to a new country. It's also by this, how he learns of his relation to Jorgi.

Jorgi hides his drug business from his wife, not wanting to worry her too. He makes up stories about helping around transporting supplies and that is why he is out of the country so much. She has her suspicions, but she has to let it slide, knowing that it might be the only way.

His soft spot for family is also the reason why he befriended Calensk so quickly. At first Calensk let him go off easily, but then his wife got worse and Jorgi had to at least pay up. Jorgi understood.

At one point Calensk wasn't the one apprehending Jorgi, so he had to full on prison escape, bribing guards and finding weird ways to sneak through, out of the arrest. That's why he got his face on a criminal bulletin that one time.

Not much of classic hcs, just his backstory in my head for now

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Sergiu making breakfast for Elisa:

It was their 2nd day together. She just came from Kolechia yesterday and now she was sleeping soundly, in Sergiu's arms. He couldn't sleep for most of the night. Just wanting to hold her tight, being scared that if he would let go, if he closed his eyes, it would turn out to be all a dream and he will be alone again.

Elisa was curled up on Sergiu's chest. He was just laying there, softly petting her hair, deep in his thoughts. A though emerges in his mind and he decides that it would be nice, to surprise her with a breakfast.

He carefully pulled her to the side. He made sure she was still sound asleep, put a small kiss on her forehead and covered her up with a blanket. He quietly got out of the bedroom and made his way into the kitchen.

There wasn't much to make breakfast with. Sergiu sighed resigned. He took some bread, margarine, lard and started to make some sandwiches.

He thought that with this scanty dish, it's not tas much of a romantic gesture, as he might have thought. It's better than they have it in Kolechia for sure, but its not the bourgeoisie, she probably hoped for. He started to doubt himself. Whether he will be able to satisfy and provide for Elisa. Whether she will be truly happy here with him. Whether their love-

He felt a pair of arms, lazily wrapping around his torso. A faint hint of lips on the back of his neck.

Elisa nested her head in the crook of his neck. “Making breakfast so early and all by yourself? Why so early and no morning cuddles…?”

Sergiu puts his work down and turns around to embrace her. “I was just so excited you are here. I couldn't rest. Wanted to make some breakfast for both of us.” He kisses her lightly on the head. “Well then…” She spins around, takes the bread and puts it in her mouth. “We can sit down and cuddle together, and you can tell me more about living here. And maybe after that, I could get you to sleep some more.” She says with a sigh and looks at the clock. It was nearing 4am. Sergiu's face gets a little red. Elisa tugs at his arms and leads them to the bedroom.

They spend the next hour just chatting about everything, until Elisa gets sleepy enough and falls asleep on Sergiu again. He embraces and spoons her. He focuses his mind on her. Doesn't let his thoughts wander. And he eventually drifts to sleep, with a small smile on his face.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

How Sergiu's friends help him through panic attacks

Elisa:

She herself, had many panic attacks before, of similar nature. Sergiu was always there for her, to helping her through them. It's only natural that she helps him through his.

So whenever he's down, on his knees, clutching his chest, breathing hard. She is right by him.

He tries to play it off, put on a smile. But his eyes are unfocused and hands are clutching his chest, trembling. Always trying to be strong, for himself and her.

But this is not how their relationship ever worked.

She kneels down to his level. Holds his head and sets her forehead against his. She gently hushes him and hums a tune, for him to hold onto.

Carefully wipes the tears away from his eyes. Whispers to him and kisses on the forehead.

She unravels his arms and hugs him tight, slowly petting his back and letting him cry it all out.

After the attack, they spend a good amount of time just cuddling or Elisa reads him one of her books, so he has something to hold onto mentally too.

Calensk:

Isn't unfamiliar with other comrades around him falling to panic. The war did his fellow soldiers, now fellow guards, truly dirty.

As for himself. Well, he never lets it show.

So when he finds Sergiu one day in a familiar position, his heart is touched.

He squats next to him, puts his hand on Sergiu's back, rubbing circles. With his other hand, slowly takes one of Sergiu's hands and squeezes it in a rhythm.

“In one two, in two three…” he lets Sergiu ground himself in his voice.

If he has some, he shares some of his tea or coffee.

After the first attack, he becomes more observant of Sergiu's body language and tries to catch the signs before the attack happens. He does his best to then take him to a quieter place, to calm down.

Inspector:

Panic attacks are not something he is very familiar with, but he is quite observant of people around him. He is able to pick up on Sergiu's distress fast and take him somewhere isolated.

He waits to see how it develops. When tears start streaming down his face and hands uncontrollably shaking, he panics a bit.

He takes his hands and starts to caress them. He tries to talk him down in a soft tone.

When Sergiu starts distressing more, he digs with his fingernails into Inspector's hands. Inspector doesn't mind and continues.

It's awkward, but little by little Sergiu calms down. They sit and stay like that for a while.

Sergiu gets hit with a wave of guilt about hurting the Inspector.

And the Inspector feels bad, about not being able to help better. After that he goes to Elisa and Calensk, to get guidance on how to help Segiu,  through his attacks.

After that he gets better and is able to improve in helping his friend.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Sergiu's and Elisa first bigger fight

It happened late into Elisa's first pregnancy. Emotions ran high for both of them. Sergiu had been working especially hard to provide for them and anything would easily trigger his trauma. Elisa had to be there as his emotional support, most of the time. But she was stressed out too. And the baby took plenty of a toll on her body and mind already.

One day, the dam finally broke, she couldn't bear being the sole cornerstone of his well being. Seeing him curled up on their bed again, pushing her away, leaving her to wonder what was going on this time. She finally snapped.

It was… rough. She wanted to scream, to cry. She was tired - emotionally, mentally and physically. Deep inside she knew it wasn't entirely fair on him, he went through a lot. But she did too. And now she needed him so much, for him to be there for her.

So she screamed, begged for him to let her in, that she was there for him. And that he should be there for her too. That it's rough on them both, but for the past few months it seems like it's all about him. That she has to take the weight for the two of them. That she can't manage it all herself. Her yelling was eventually stopped, by violent sobbing overtaking her body.

Sergiu was looking up at her silently, with so many conflicting emotions in his eyes. When she broke down, he sprung from the bed and embraced her tightly. An avalanche of apologies flew down from his mouth. Soft pleas for forgiveness. He never meant for this. He was too worried, too anxious about everything that he failed to be the partner Elisa needed. And now she was hurting because of him. He vowed to be better, to be there for her, to help her through her struggles too, to be more observant… He starts to slowly cry too.

Elisa makes him promise that he'd take better care of himself too, that he will be more open to people around him, that he never forgets about her. He swears on his life.

They lay like that for a while, embracing each other, crying it all out. Sobs slow down and tears start running dry. They are both so tired. None of them wanted to let go of another. They slowly sway in each other's arms, for the rest of the evening.

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Papers please characters love languages

Inspector:

Gift-Giving. No matter his financial situation, he can't help it. Loves the joy of others getting gifts from him, loves searching for a good present or the process of making it. Even after their wedding the Inspector still gives lil gifts to his wife, without an occasion. Also gives little gifts to his friends. He doesn't want to spare any expense, when it comes to birthday gifts.

Physical touch. Just really loves all kinds of touch - hugs, kisses, holding hands, cuddling, sitting close together... No matter if it's platonic or romantic. When he feels comfortable (and others do too), he likes to hug his friends. Loves big family hugs. Isn’t big on pda, but when home he just showers his wife in affection.

Sergiu:

Words of affirmation. Loves to say sweet nothings to Elisa, to compliment her openly or quietly in bed when they are cuddled up together, always and whenever. If he didn't say “I love you” to Elisa at least 20 times a day, it's an impostor. Is also very open to compliment and praise his friends or kids.

Physical touch. If he didn't hug Elisa at least 20 times a day, it's an impostor. Hugs mean so much to this man, he will hold long and tight. And loves to leave lil kisses throughout the day on his lover. If Elisa puts her head on his lap, this man is melting. Sometimes he gives gentle massages to her, especially during her pregnancy.

Calensk:

Acts of service and Quality time. Will get out of his way to run errands and help around people he loves. Loves to just spend time with people, whether it's a walk in a park, a talk over coffee, a smoke break with a co-worker or helping with dinner. Sometimes people find it hard to notice his love, since it's not so obvious, like with physical touch or gift giving, but if you notice it, it's so special. If he spends time out of work with someone willingly, it's a big sign that he likes and values that person. He is just a simple man, showing affection in a simple way.

Elisa:

Quality time. Loves to spend time with people she loves. Likes to put her head on Sergiu's lap or cuddle up to him and listen to him, or talk herself. They can easily spend hours like that. Likes long walks and coffee/tea talks. (She befriended the Inspector, by long talks about life and books, over coffee and tea.)

Physical touch. Get this woman with Sergiu and they are glued to each other for the next few hours. Loves to take warm showers/baths with him. Likes when he fixes her hair in little ways. They both love to put their faces in their lover's hands and stay like that. Absolutely loves it when it's cold and Sergiu embraces her or lets her snuggle into his coat.

Papers please characters morning and bedtime routines headcannons

Calensk: 

⁺₊⋆ ☀︎ ⋆⁺₊

- Early to rise, between 4-5am. Doesn't linger in bed too much.

- Half of the time, kisses his wife on the head, before stepping out of bed.

- Spends little time to refresh himself in the bathroom. Running a comb through his hair and beard. Splashing some water on face. Brushing teeth.

- Makes himself and his wife a quick breakfast.

- Takes out lunch of the fridge, for work. His wife made it for him the day before.

- And he is off to work.

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆

- Early to bed too. He has a pretty strict routine due to his time in the army (however short it was). After 8pm, if he hits the pillow, he immediately falls asleep. 

- Rarely dreams.

- Before bed, he always showers. The nature of his jobs usually leaves him sweaty, so it's a must. Showers with cold water for the sake of his wife (and his kids, in the past). When his wife is out of the house though, he also enjoys some boiling level hot water.

- Overall both his routines come down to essentials, no fancy stuff. He'd rather spend that time on something more important.

Sergiu: 

⁺₊⋆ ☀︎ ⋆⁺₊

- Life as a soldier screwed up his internal clock badly.

- Wakes up at 5am sharp. Tries to linger in bed sometimes, to try to tell his brain that it's ok,  to sleep in longer now. Doesn't really work that well…

- Also basic essentials in the bathroom. Showers in the morning, as well as in the evening. Doesn't mind whether the water is warm or cold.

- He doesn't eat breakfast in the morning. Used to eating the first meal of the day, only around 10-11am, so he just packs himself some lunch to work.

 ⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆

- Writes letters to Elisa, in the evenings. He isn't much of a romantic poet, but he tries his best to put down on paper, how much he loves and misses her. Also writes about his week and includes some cash to help her out a bit.

- Rarely, he will include a dry, compressed in a book flower, to the letter.

- Then he is off to have a quick meal, before bed.

- Shower, brushing teeth, nothing special.

- And he is off to bed. Hopefully to fall asleep quickly and not spend a few hours, laying in bed anxious, with a big hole in his chest, unable to sleep.

- His dreams are a mixed bag, usually filled with nightmares.

Sergiu and Elisa: 

⁺₊⋆ ☀︎ ⋆⁺₊

- Sergiu still wakes up early, but this time he has an excellent excuse to stay longer in bed. Cuddling with Elisa really helps his sleeping problems.

- Long showers together. Maybe a bit shorter in the morning, but in the evening… (..ofgjgj the water bill…)

- Sometimes Sergiu will brush Elisa's hair and vice versa.

- They make their breakfasts together. Lovey lovey, casually flirting while doing so. Sergiu slowly starts adjusting his eating times, so he can spend more time with her.

- Kiss goodbye before going to work. 

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆

- Making a quick meal before bed is just as fun for these two, as in the morning.

- Showering together part 2.

- Elisa likes reading books before bed, so she just lays in bed and uses Sergiu's chest as her pillow. He loves it, finally having filled the hole in chest. He just looks at her and combs her hair with his fingers, satisfied.

- Sometimes instead of reading, they will talk about anything and everything.

- And after that, it's just all cuddles and kisses. They end up falling asleep tangled together.

- They help each other ease their nightmares. Elisa's soft kisses taking away Sergiu's tears. Sergiu's tight hugs, and soft whispered reassurances, calming Elisa.

Inspector: 

⁺₊⋆ ☀︎ ⋆⁺₊

- He wakes up pretty easily with the sun, but he needs his alarm clock to ring, to drag him out

-Alarm rings.

- Wakes up.

- Groggy.

- Kiss wife good morning.

- Cuddle wife, go back to sleep…

- 2nd alarm

- There is no arguing with that.

- Mostly also just essentials in the morning. Though he prefers to shower before the day starts. Also spends some time washing his beard, he hates when it's dirty or uncombed.

- When walking out, passes his wife, who already made breakfast.

- Kiss wife thanks.

- Eats breakfast with the rest of the family, grabs lunch for work and he is out.

- Sometimes when he has time, will walk his kids to school.

⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆

- Before going to bed, hugs kids goodnight. Maybe read or make up some bedtime story for them, if not too tired.

- Bathroom routine shorter than in the morning. Brush teeth, splash water in face and that's all.

- Rarely, he will read one of his books before bed.

- Cuddle wife, cuddle wife, cuddle wife. Kiss her goodnight.

an addition to the first ref

i wanted to have a ref of his hands and i forgor abt it. also sketches cause i wanted to try out kolechia with 'black eyes white pupils', i think i will stick with gray ones for now and it might just generally work better with his personality

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

sooo i decided to give it a try at countryhumans/humanization of pp countries

(I hope i did that right) (definitly somewhat inspired by kajenus (i am not immune to propaganda hjhgjjh))

also some silly sketches and a lil explanation for em:

so arstotzka kinda can fly, its just never in a way he wants/expects

when he gets angry, he gets more similar to a bird (maybe not that cartoonish, more similar to an actual bird he's based on)

(this kinda connects to my bigger idea for them, but for now im not so conviced/have any strong ideas for these 2 with it)

kolechia used to have a braid, but doesnt now for reasons. the cut isn't clean

also some altrenative outfits/just wanted to draw them again

tw for blood

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

I got the Elisa and Sergiu reuniting gifs post, crossing my dash again. It made me think…

Sergiu steps out of line, recognizes Elisa and Elisa recognizes him. But do you wonder what was going through Elisa's mind before she recognized him? She walks out of the booth, relieved that she managed to cross the border with no problems. But then this guard steps out of line,  blocking her path. Cold shivers of anxiety as to why. Did others know she didn't have the right papers and now gonna take her away?

But then it turns out to be Sergiu ◜ᵕ◝

[jadzio-writing-prowess]

Elisa headcanons:

Headstrong and composed.

Loves to read books and working in a garden.

Likes to read murder mystery novels. She likes to talk about them with the Inspector. Surprisingly, even tho they like completely different genres, they find a lot in common to talk about and sometimes are able to convince each other to read their favorite books.

Would also like to have an intelligent dog or a stray, at some point.

Has some knowledge and experience in medicine and healthcare.

Likes the rain a lot, whether to listen to it in the apartment or to take a walk in.

Inspector & Calensk & Sergiu hanging out headcanons:

They rarely go out drinking. Everyone has too much trauma, for alcohol, to just blow around. Though they might sometimes try it on special occasions. They prefer to drink in their own/family company, better than in a bar.

Calensk is usually the one to have to take care of the others, by the end of it. He has a pretty high alcohol tolerance.

Sergiu is giggling, hiccuping and talking a lot. Bruh is wasted after like 4 glasses, gets so red in the face. If Elisa is anywhere close when that happens, he glues himself to her. Slurred love confessions and compliments.

After alcohol Inspector gets very clingy, slurring over his words. Silly pickup lines and complaints at his friends.

Inspector is always the one with the worst hangover in the morning.

They sometimes play sports together, when it's warm enough. Sometimes it's just them three, and sometimes their kids join to play.

They like to talk about their kids with each other. Calensk was someone who the Inspector turned to, from time to time, for parenting advice. Though for Calensk, the topic of his sons is a bit sore for him, he still wants to help. When Sergiu entered the game, he just listened to them and listened, absorbed information. Once he gets his own, he takes up all of the conversation. Others don't mind, though the Inspector doesn't really feel good enough to give parenting advice. 

Inspector and Sergiu let their kids play together and it makes them so happy to see them get along.

A few years after the events of the game, they all decide to take a big family photo together.

Sergiu/Elisa headcanons

The day they got reunited, neither of them could stop smiling, for the rest of the day (except for a brief terrorist attack).

Most lovey dovey plp in East Grestin, if not the whole Ariztocka.

They can't get officially married. There is a possibility, with Elisa not having all her papers and being illegally let in the country, that if they tried, she could get deported.

They would love to have a wedding, though.

Didn't stop them from consuming their love. Both of them felt the fear, anxiety of war and the separation, and now they have you live once to the fullest, mindset. 

They borrow each other's clothes a lot. It makes them feel better and safer, when separate at work.

Good morning and goodbye before work kisses are a must with these two. On the nose, cheek, forehead, top of the head…

Sergiu is protective of Elisa, but that doesn't mean anything, when she is fully capable of throwing a punch herself and it's Sergiu that ends up having to take her off of someone.

Segiu loves whispering sweet nothings to Elisa and combing her hair with his fingers.

Lots of hugs and cuddling with these two. At home, outside, they are too in love with each other to care if other people are watching.

Sergiu is ticklish and Elisa is ready to fully exploit that :3

For a long while after Elisa gets into Arstotzka, Sergiu gives her the tightest and longest hugs any chance he can get.

He just missed, and longed, and worried and feared for her for so long. He just can't believe she is in his arms again and needs a long while to be satisfied.

Sergiu loves to listen to Elisa's voice. Whenever he hears her, it helps to cure any bad mood he might have.

Sergiu's favorite places to kiss Elisa: back of the neck, lips, cheek, hand, hair.

Elisa's favorite places to kiss Sergiu: cheeks, forehead, chest, lips.

Sergiu once made Elisa a flower crown, with the flowers he grew in the pots in their apartment.

Sergiu likes to bring random gifts for Elisa, under “this reminded me of you”.

When Elisa gets pregnant, Sergiu is just all over the place from happiness.

He might have almost passed out when he heard the news. Then tackled Elisa into the longest hug they ever had.

After their first child is born, he cries so much from happiness.

Probably also passed out during birth.

Elisa was 10x times more headstrong and much more composed during the whole ordeal, while her partner was all over the place. (It's ok he is just so excited.)

Their whole relationship is kinda like that - Elisa composed, very matter of fact, while Sergiu gets carried so easily by emotions.

Though Sergiu still had to make sure,  she didn't strain herself after labor and helped with everything, so that she could safely recover.

They balance each other.

The newborn would be all Segiu can think and talk about, to anyone and everyone.

Inspector and Calensk are happy to hear it and are happy to give advice

Sergiu was so proud to present his kid to them, like “look I made this, isn't it the most perfect thing in the world <3”.

First one is a boy and Elisa was very adamant about naming him the same as the Inspector. The Inspector was in absolute dismay, pleading with them, but Sergiu was like “can't help you mate, next time though for sure it's gonna be different”. Elisa just really liked the name. Before coming to Ariztocka she was unsure for the longest time, but after hearing Inspector's name, this one surprisingly grew on her.

Sergiu would be so involved as a father, but not possessive and glady gives Elisa their child when she wants. Elisa doesnt mind and is glad for the help and having such a doting father for her kid.

Sergiu at first is a bit of a helicopter parent being so worried for the child's wellbeing, but after a while and persuasion from Elisa and his friends, he lets the kid breathe a little.
