George invading and burning down a whole facility because he thought Lockwood and Lucy died – I NEED TO SEE THIS IN ACTION 😩

[ann1eandco]

something i really like about the books are the little snippets of dialogue between george, lucy and lockwood - it builds their relationship so well having moments of domestic interactions and banter

they are so found family and i love them

[sticks-and-souls]

Barnes: We call that a “traumatic experience.”

Barnes, turning to George: Not a “bruh moment.”

Barnes, turning to Lucy: Not “it is what it is.”

Barnes, turning to Lockwood: And DEFINITELY not “oof LMAO.”

I have a personal l&co hc that I can't get out of my head, so now y'all get to enjoy the absolutely riveting content that is the Portland Row budgeting system. under the cut because this is a needlessly detailed post that like 5 people will be interested in

I think that when they are paid for a job, the first thing that happens to the money is that there is a big cut that goes to bills for the house and business. mortgage, utilities, groceries, ghost supplies, advertising, etc. I think it's probably 50-60% of most jobs pay. probably a smaller cut on big jobs that come with bigger checks.

I think Lockwood started out trying very hard to be a "proper business man" and split the remainder evenly and paid them every other Friday because that's what your supposed to do. but I think that would have devolved after only a few months living and working together. between covering each other for dinner or coffee and getting household stuff with their money and everyone feeling a little weird on payday because it was one of the only times there was a clear boss/employee dynamic because they all saw each other as genuine equals, it just didn't make sense to keep doing it that way.

and so I think George (after pestering Lockwood about fixing the budgeting) sat down and set it up so that it was basically automatic profit sharing. first the bills and expenses cut goes straight to an auto pay acct. and then the remaining cut goes to a general house acct, which pays out a small allowance to each of their personal accts each week. most of the stuff they get and do is covered from the joint acct because it makes sense that way. but they do each have their own money and savings.

after the new system is set up George checks on the balances and bank statements once a week but it mostly manages itself. he folds it into the other chores that he does and likes how simple it is to keep running.

Lockwood pretends to be grumpy about not being in charge but is not so secretly very happy to not have to worry about it. he is also very happy that this puts all of them on equal footing with the business because he he like being the leader and the face of things, but he doesn't like the power dynamic of being the boss.

Lucy is worried at first that they will argue about spending from the joint acct, but they very rarely ever run into issues with it, and when there is it is almost always resolved quickly because while they all bicker about smaller things and about everyone's bad habits, they actually get along and manage house very smoothly

edit: i have in fact added more domestic head canons in this thread and I have been seeing a lot of people tagging asking for more. they are in the notes if you're interested

I actually made myself laugh thinking about how post-Bone Glass George, Lucy, and Lockwood would all start fretting over each other.

Lucy and Lockwood would try to take care of George out of concern for everything he’d been put through and guilt for not noticing.

Lucy and George would try to take care of Lockwood because, well, he was shot and fell a long way.

George and Lockwood would try to take care of Lucy because she’d been exposed to the Bone Glass and passed out after making herself the sacrificial lamb.

And also just generally out of love, because found family.

They’re dorks and this is canon.

Finished off the comic book posters for my Psychonauts AU I have written on Ao3. If you ever need a fix of the gang at a Psychic Summer Camp..... Also remembered how much I hate doing backgrounds. (You do not need to be familiar with the games to read the AU, it's written to stand on its own.)

Lockwood & Co Love Languages

George: likes giving acts of service and receiving quality time(?)

it's no secret that he loves giving acts of service, whether that be cooking or cleaning for them. I chose quality time because he loves having conversations with Lockwood and Lucy and spending time with them (he does not like being left out). I remember in one of their cases in the books, they were drinking tea and George said it would be nice to do that (hang out) sometime without having to worry about the Problem.

Lucy: likes giving quality time and receiving acts of service/words of affirmation

Lucy is such a loving and caring person, so it was hard to choose what she likes to give because honestly, she does everything. She does love spending time and sharing experiences with Lockwood and George. In terms of receiving, she loves it whenever Lockwood does things like saving her and buttering her toast. She also loves it whenever Lockwood compliments and praises her.

Lockwood: likes giving gifts and acts of service; likes receiving physical touch

Because he has a hard time admitting it, we see his love for Lucy through the big gestures like the necklaces he gives her. He also enjoys saving and doing things for her. After losing his whole family, I'm sure Lockwood's been touch-starved so I'm not surprised he loves being able to hold Lucy's hand all the time.
