Watch me be insane about copperright

Soooo I've been thinking about early copperright (in suave era to be specific, because that's when I headcannon they met) and I brought some headcannons, and how I like to imagine they met.

I like to think that Reginald has been in the clan longer, maybe he was even born a toppat (since we know that happens) meanwhile RHM joined somewhere during Terrence Suave's time.

They first properly acknowledge eachother during one of many heists.

On that very heist they become friends. I like to think that RHM's loyalty for Reg could come from him being potentially saved by Reg. I mentioned in my other post how their fighting styles can complement eachother really well and they have eachother's backs at all times. Their first meeting is Reginald saving RHM's life by shooting a guard that ambushed him.

I see RHM as someone who's never got the chance to experience what it feels like to be cared about, and while for Reginald, shooting the guard was just a thing he could do, for RHM it was special, he felt like someone other than him actually cared about his life and it made him feel good, he decided he needs to return the favor one day (he then proceeds to save Reginald's life for like, thousand and more times probably until it's not even returning the favour anymore it's just his love for the guy)

They get to work together during that heist and actually enjoy eachother's company, they are very compatible in combat with Reg being the brain and long range attacker and RHM as the more in front close combat guy, which then leads to them growing closer more and more, until they are almost inseperable.

Eventually, Terrence is overthrown by Reginald and his allies (a group toppats and RHM) and Reginald becomes the leader.

I like thinking of their potential backstories, is anyone interested in hearing more, because I definetely want to draw more of them back when they just met I think it would be cool

god what happened to Hyde. What happened

an experiment gone wrong, leaving him hospitalized, and when Jekyll visits, guilt ridden and teary-eyed, when Hyde wakes up again after days, weeks—

Hyde won’t even look at him.

Won’t listen.

there’s nothing Jekyll can do to fix this. Any of it.

When Hyde is finally discharged, he shakes off Jekyll’s hand and stumbles off of that bed, ignoring the wheelchair they’d provided and hissing in pain as he crumples to the floor, and muttering curses the whole way (maybe he lost his voice) (maybe Jekyll is imagining him cursing, maybe he’s pretending everything is still normal) (what kind of injury is it, what happened)

in the months that followed, Hyde didn’t speak to him once. Even when his voice came back (if it left at all)

When Jekyll got the news that he’d been accepted at Oxford, that he was leaving the country — Hyde looked him in the eyes for the first time in months.

He’s known Hyde his whole life. He could see what Hyde meant from his eyes alone. He could see the mixture of relief and fear and anger hardening into something that screamed “good riddance”

When Jekyll left, Hyde didn’t even say goodbye

Jekyll couldn’t blame him

—

He tried, those first few months. Sent letters. But none of them ever got a response. When the first one came back, “return to sender”, Jekyll felt himself smile, an ugly little thing that held no joy, no bitterness. Some unnamed, third emotion between the two. Relief, maybe.

“Good riddance” he tried to say, but the words tasted like ash and caught like glass in his throat until all that came out was a choked, wet sound. It didn’t matter. At least he knew where they stood, now.

He kept that letter, and every single one written after it, in the bottom drawer of his office table, the one that locked with a little silver key that he never went anywhere without. He never looked through them, either.

And yet.

No matter where Jekyll fucking turned, his stupid brother was there. He took to covering up the mirrors. Took to cutting his hair even shorter than he’d kept it before, trimming the sides until they were just stubble.

When he got really, really shitfaced one night, early in those years before he’d started cutting his hair every damn month and it was growing out in that choppy, awkward way hair did, he looked in a mirror and laughed. He hugged the bottle to his chest, kneeling on the floor of his dorm, and giggled at his reflection.

“What,” he slurred, Scottish accent thick, “You want some too, Hyde? This is my bottle, you get your own.”

And then, despite himself, Jekyll started crying.

He woke up that morning, face sticky and mouth tasting like shit, and stumbled straight out of his dorm — throbbing headache and all — to get his hair cut so short he could hardly recognize himself anymore. Lanyon laughed at him, when he saw him later that day. Jekyll just shrugged, told him he was trying something new.

And it was better this way. He had to believe it. This was better for the both of them.

okay okay so William's son dies and, obviously, he is devistated but he's been squashing down his own emotions for so so so long he just kinda files that away with everything else. Compartmentilises the fuck out of it. So Michael wakes up the day after to his dad humming while making breakfast. Henry sees him a week later at work and he's still smiling and chipper. Everyone is uneasy.

"I Will" by Mitski is SO clervalstein coded and its making me VERY upset /pos

One of the most unrealistic things Fellowes ever did was have so many men in their mid thirties alive and available post WWI, happy to patiently wait around for the Blessed Mary Crawley to come to a decision, with seemingly no background or baggage of their own while Mary comes with a complete and complicated life story.

Tony? An on and off dalliance with Mabel Lane Fox.

Evelyn? Broke off an engagement, it was implied because he was still hopeful Mary might pick him after all.

Henry? Nothing at all. I'd buy a "fuckboy who never settled" backstory for him, though.

Charles? Now listen up. What if he reacts to George like he does because ... he's a father himself? He's used to handling the kid while his wife was otherwise occupied? He's a widower who lost his wife to the Spanish Flu pandemic? Something?

Something that would've given Mary more to think about and choose from, apart from which one makes the prettiest puppy eyes at her?

That's the main problem with Mary's Men and why the later seasons were comparatively meh. No depth at all.

sorry i know most people think it's a nice funny moment but i do Not get jj being so apprehensive about letting spencer babysit henry at the end of 7x16 😭 ill admit some of this is headcanon but i think it's reasonable extrapolation from canon: spencer was a lot more independent than most children from ages ten and on, and also functioned as a caregiver himself a lot of that time. he's not incompetent. obviously i get that being an independent and parentified kid doesnt necessarily mean youre going to be a good babysitter but the "we don't trust spencer to take care of a toddler for a few hours" joke doesnt really land for me

especially because. why would jj make spencer her son's godfather if she doesn't trust him to babysit solo for a few hours? the role means different things to different people, especially nowadays as it's become more secular, but sometimes there's an expectation that the godparent will become the child's guardian should something happen to their parents. i mean, garcia is the godmother so it's not like he would be solo, but i just...don't get why you'd give a role like that to someone you don't trust to be around your child for a few hours?

(this is a writing problem to me, by the way. i could see jj forgetting spencer does actually have some experience in taking care of someone other than himself, but not trusting a godparent to babysit for a few hours is just illogical to me)

This is a bit of a rant but

WHY HAS IT TAKEN ME THIS LONG TO GO THROUGH THE TFA ALLSPARK ALMANIC WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME

This was litteraly my first time seeing Oilslick's first concept art and BRO thank FUCK they changed it (and then changed it again and again 😒they should have just kept the toy design)

But I'm literally bouncing off the walls, they have colour concepts for Prometheus black and that lanky ink sketch of Oilslick is chefs kiss, not to mention the box art of Oilslick that I never got to see because my Oilslick was unboxed 😭😭 I kinda wanna buy a second Oilslick figure just to repaint him in his unreleased concept paint toxic Oilslick. I've actually made it my mission to own asmuch Oilslick stuff that I can get my hands on, nothing will stop me (aside from the financial aspect)

Bonus, Their Meltdowns mugshot and the way henry masterson types, RIP Henry masterson you would have loved MySpace you freaky little emo

(Meltdown melting his mugshot card 😭 this man is actually a wet cloth, I love him)
