angsty and fluffy Florida headcanons

(by alligator guy and rad sunflower dude)

(florida hat divider made by @alaskashigh)

Had his left leg bitten off during an alligator accident and it never grew back right so he uses a prosthetic. Sometimes will throw his prosthetic leg at states whenever he's bored or they get on his nerves.

Has a bunch of tattoos. Big tattoo on his back, one full sleeve on left arm, couple on his ankles and feet, few on his chest and ribs, couple on his right arm, one behind his ear, and one on his lower back. Dude is covered head to toe. (His favorites being the ones Loui and Cal tattooed on him)

Sharp as fuck teeth. No joke those things are DEADLY. Also has a gap tooth that he likes to use to shoot water at the states. [It drives everyone nuts]

Can drink his oceans water and be completely okay.

During hurricanes he has to be monitored since he's died during them a bunch. He coughs up salt water, his lungs will get filled up, blood gets replaced with salt water, etc. He once died 12 times in one sitting from a really bad hurricane. It's not fun and he hates it.

Very attached to Loui. When Spain left him with Gov he was thrown into a new scary world and unsure of what to do/where to go. Running into Louisiana was pure fate in his eyes. He wouldn't be the same if he hadn't met him.

He has his own language with Louisiana. The two of them made it centuries ago when they couldn't speak to each other and ended up adding to it more and more. Louisiana and Florida are fluent in it and like to confuse people by talking to each other in it. (I've been thinking about making their actual code or language type thing. if i do i'll make a post about it)

Once bit a walmart employee during a weekly grocery run with a few other states. he’s banned from that walmart now. (you can’t ban him. he will come back no matter what)

His room is FILLED with plushies. He's got plushies from all sorts of places and people laying about. Sitting on his bed, thrown on the floor, up on his desks/shelves, everywhere. Lots of them are from Louisiana and California, some from other south states, and even one from Gov as a gift when he was sick. His favorite is his oldest plushie, one he's been carrying around since he was a territory

@alaskashigh and me in Hazbin Hotel art style :D

We both took tests for which ring we would end up, York in the lust ring and I being in the pride ring. Tried to make us fit the demon style and vibes of those areas, so hopefully, I succeeded.

California as a witch and New York as his familiar

He can’t fly a broom for the life of him

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.

Fluffy and angsty headcanons of Texas/Oklahoma because why not

- (by yours truly, 🐊🌻)

Texas and Oklahoma have dates where they ride around through the mountains and woods on their horses. They'll walk through the streams with their pant legs pulled up, splashing water at each other and dragging the other into kisses. By the time they are back its late at night (if they didn't spend the night outside) and are covered in dirt, giggling and shoving each other like teenagers in love

They have many fights at meetings so as to not fight at home. They may love each other lots, but they still have their differences. It's better off fighting at a meeting (where its pretty much supposed to happen, to Gov's dismay) then fighting at home around the kids and making their house toxic. They always leave the meeting together and are seen with happy faces, so it works for them. (Sometimes this isn't the case, but it usually is)

Whenever Texas gets drunk, he becomes very sappy. He will literally waltz Oklahoma around the house and kiss every inch of him that he can. Throwing praises at Oklahoma for being able to handle his dumbass. When he's super drunk he starts talking to Oklahoma in Spanish

Oklahoma is the only one who has heard Texas speak Spanish for a long time (the last time being right after becoming a state and letting his people know). Texas feels so safe around him to not be afraid to talk in Spanish

Oklahoma has collections of wood carvings that Texas made throughout the decades, it was the first courting gift that Texas gave him and every anniversary he gets another one

They would so have matching belts, Oklahoma has Texas's state flower on his belt buckle and Texas has Oklahoma's

They would watch old Wild West films together, Texas would be the one to talk the whole time and calling characters stupid when Oklahoma is just combing through his hair and not paying attention

Texas combs Oklahoma's hair everyday; every time he walks up, takes a shower, comes back from the field, and gets ready for bed. He picks out different ribbons to braid into his hair, I can so see him picking them out at the store or getting them made for Oklahoma.

Oklahoma every week will make a new bouquet of flowers for Texas, picking them from their garden and making them all pretty for him. Texas gets embarrassed every time and acts all manly but he really does love them

Their house is always loud; Texas is in the kitchen making a mess, the kids are running around with their mud covered shoes, the dogs are running everywhere, somehow a pig got in, and Oklahoma is just making one of the little ones giggle

Whenever Texas gets on Oklahoma's nerves, Oklahoma makes him sleep in the barn. Not that Texas minds, of course. He's already slept in there multiple times just because. Though that won't stop him from being a little upset about having to leaving his comfy bed to go sleep on hay bales. (Oklahoma gives him a pillow and blanket)

Texas is still learning to be and accepting and good parent with Oklahoma's help. He doesn't want to end up hurting his kids or for his kids not to like him, not like how he was raised, so he's learning. Oklahoma is learning as well, but he is a little farther ahead than Texas in his knowledge

Texas has a bad back that constantly cracks from the shit he’s put it/been through. Oklahoma massages his back and helps him stand up and walk when it is really bad. Sometimes Texas can’t walk or move it without agonizing pain so he’ll spend the day in bed while Oklahoma takes care of him. (Sometimes his back is just too stiff for him to move). He cries a lot on those days from embarrassment, anger, sadness, etc because his body is “ruined.” (in his eyes, he is weak on those days. Oklahoma makes sure to tell him otherwise with firm and loving words.)

Oklahoma gets really bad migraines that leave him stuck in bed. He always tries to get up and trudge through it but Texas forces his ass back into bed each time. He'll spend the day in his dark bedroom, warm tea, soup, and pain meds resting on his bedside table, and in quiet. Texas makes sure to keep the kids away from Oklahoma and quiet/out of the house so Oklahoma can heal and won't be in more pain. Sometimes Oklahoma will drag Texas into the bed (if its a slow free day) and latch onto him, refusing to let him get up. (not like Texas wants too/will)

Texas is really good at sewing, he keeps it a secret to others but he will always fix Oklahoma's ripped shirts. He always teases him for being clumsy but doesn't mind at all. It's not just Oklahoma but his kids too.

i made his wings do cool stuff (move). i haven’t really animated in years so, it might be scrappy. i was gonna give him an animated tail, but i gave up since i didn’t feel like working on this anymore

[likelyhyperventilating]

It’s my favorite little dude!! I’ve been thinking about him a lot lately for some reason. He’s so me lmao. Maybe i’ll post my school doodles i’ve made of him tomorrow?? dunno,

Anyways, I really like how my artstyle looks here! I’m slowly finding how I want my artstyle to look, which is fun. I really tried my best to be detailed on everything (besides the shirt, don’t look at the shirt), so I think it’s decent. (i’m still figuring out how to draw the hair I envision for him. i’m getting there though, sigh)
