The Gang Meets Jamie’s Mum (Part 1)

I wrote this because I realized that since Jamie is around 25 and Rebecca and Ted are mid-forties, if Jamie’s mom had him in her early twenties she would be about the same age

Ted’s on his way to work when he bumps into a middle-aged woman lost on her way trying to get to Nelson Road Stadium.  She makes an awkward comment which Ted misinterprets as flirting, and he panics, slightly

For the past twenty years, Ted’s response to people hitting on him has been Sorry, I’m Married.  That doesn’t work anymore and he has no way to politely turn somebody down prepared and he blurts all this out

She laughs and says that she definitely wasn’t flirting.  If she’s honest, she wouldn’t know how.

Ted is relieved but he also senses there’s something more here so he does the Ted Lasso special active listening and she ends up spilling the beans

She admits she’s been too busy being a working class single mom, and her last relationship ended badly.  Her son is very protective and she’s doesn’t want to worry him, and it’s been so long and she’s gotten so old she’s sure there’s no point.

Ted is too recently divorce to at all engage with the topic of what children think of their parents dating life

Ted’s is trying to encourage her to believe in herself, that she’s a real catch, and hey, if she wants she can practice flirting with him right now.  They know they’re not interested in each other so it’s nice and low stakes!  Training is key to success!

Jamie Tartt walks in to find his coach and uncomfortably close to pseudo father figure Flirting With His Mum did you just fuck my mum coach lasso of course not she’s just gotten to town today but Jamie doesn’t say anything yet he’s just focused on greeting his mom.

Mum how did you not realize this was my coach how many people with Kansas accents did you think would be around here

She was just flustered from being lost and didn’t think about it, besides, she points out, he could have been at least one other person!

he could not have been beard mum.  he has a mustache.

Jamie’s mom breaks off to go to unpack she was just stopping by because she couldn’t wait to say hi to Jamie first thing when she arrived to stay in town

Jamie pulls Ted aside like It’s Time To Talk

Ted is trying to walk the very fine line of Jamie, I have tremendous respect for you, it would be a conflict of interest, except I have zero interest, but not because she isn’t attractive, she is, just not to me, but she could make somebody else very happy, somebody else other than me, because she’s her own woman with a sexuality that is none of my business and you need to be okay with that!

Jamie is like this is the worst day.  

but at least the coach isn’t actually trying to get with his mom

It was right there all this time... TED LASSO 2.01 | 3.12

[luminarai]

And that was the last time anybody on the team attempted polite small talk with Beard.

I’ve been working on this since eurovision and got it done just in time for the s3 finale 🥲 speaking of eurovision, if you look really really closely at the interval show you might just be able peep Beard in the background…

Ted Lasso S03E05 - Signs

[sideboot]

beard/ted soulmate au where ted and beard have known each other for forever but ted and michelle had known each other for a slightly longer forever so beard has always known them as tedandmichelle and so obviously ted and beard must be platonic soulmates right?

because ted has michelle and beard has a series of five minute flings and doesn’t think too much how it’s almost like there’s someone who’s taking up more of his attention.  

And now ted’s marriage is falling apart and together ted and beard are upending their lives to move across the atlantic and for the first time there’s technically an opportunity for their relationship to also change but also beard doesn’t want that he wants to be the steady sure known thing in ted’s upside down world, because that’s what ted has always been to beard.  

Beard thinks if he can just be the same person he’s always been then ted will come to him with his problems the same he’s always has but he can’t tell if it’s new problems or if what they had was a lie, if they knew each other for decades and ted just kept all of his panic and trauma inside him, if he was drowning the whole time and beard never knew a thing
