Trent/Ted/Beard polycule headcanon

I’ve got this in my head so this is how I think the Trent/Ted/Beard polycule sleeping dynamics.

Sleeping Style

Ted: Clinger, even while dead asleep. If there is a warm body in his bed he will be tangled against them and grabbing them. Uses weighted blanket when alone. HUMAN FURNACE! But doesn’t need a fan for himself. Early bird

Beard: Doesn’t like to have weight on him, it makes him feel restricted and overheats easily but doesn’t like fans. Can’t sleep if something is on him. Light sleeper. Early early bird.

Trent: Won’t seek out cuddling while asleep but will respond. If he’s left alone he will stay still but will cuddle back while asleep without waking. Constantly cold, sleeps with many blankets. Not a morning person. Deep sleeper.

The Cuddling

Beard/Ted: Ted is allowed one of Beard’s arm and leg to grab. They hold hands while Ted rests his head on Beard’s shoulder and hooks one leg on Beard’s. Beard needs a fan or he will overheat and die. Beard and Ted goof around in bed with they wake up so will often stay in bed and go out for breakfast.

Beard/Trent: Each have their own side. Trent is a blanket hog from being cold before Beard gets him more throw blanket. Beard used Trent’s cold hands as an ice pack if he wakes up hot, Trent sleeps through it. Sometimes one leg or hands will tangle. By the time Trent is awake Beard has breakfast made and his is half eaten.

Ted/Trent: Always holding each other flushed together. Anyway you can cuddle they do. Trent will overheat sometimes so they also have a fan. Ted will wake up first and will stay in bed if Trent is laying on him but will get up otherwise to start their morning.

The Polycule Pile

Middle Trent: Trent as a buffer between Beard and Ted keeps the temperature balanced. No fan needed. Ted and Beard will hold hands across from Trent. Beard and Trent hardly interact, may hold hands if Ted isn’t. In the morning Beard will wait for Ted to wake up before getting out of bed so they can rise together.

Middle Ted: Everyone is overheating. Two fans going and limbs sticking out of blankets if Beard is even under the blanket. Even Ted wakes up in the morning sweaty. Became more tolerable when they just started sleeping with a sheet. Beard gets out of bed as soon as he wakes up to keep the heat from building anymore.

Middle Beard: Doesn’t. He won’t be trapped. Once Ted went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and decided to slip in on Beard's other side and Beard fully rolled Ted over him to be in the middle.

literally why did Jamie show up for uncle’s day. What was that. And he got Roy a gift. And it was a thoughtful gift that Roy loved. What the fuck was that.

[blessyouhawkeye]

feeling really normal about the parallel between roy talking to ted about "not being able to get jamie out of his head" when he and keeley were getting together in season 1 and all of the triangle stuff in the most recent episode. soooo normal.

[sunwarmed-ash]

Roy: whats your sexuailty?

Jamie: same as my workout routine. I alternate between bis and trys

[youruncleolaf]

i refuse to accept any other ending than jamie, roy and keeley happily polyamorous please and thank you

Georgie/Melanie/Basira/Daisy:

Not Canon. This one is for the toxic yuri lovers 💖 Georgie and Melanie as canonically a couple and I refuse to separate them. Daisy/Basira have a very strong codependent "us against the world" relationship that a lot of people choose to interpret as romantic. For the purposes of this polyship so do I. During season 3 Melanie and Basira start becoming closer, bonding mostly over the anger they share due to their circumstances. I think this bond has the potential to become a relationship, although maybe they are not fully in love with each other, but their mutual understanding bring them a sense of comfort they need. I don't see Daisy ever being interested in anyone else except Basira, but I think she'd be supportive of whatever Basira wanted, and would get along with Melanie as her metamour. In another world, I could see them meeting as normal couples and forming a much healthier polycule from that.

Roy/Keeley/Jamie:

Not Canon (cause the writers are cowards). Jamie and Roy used to hate each other, and over the course of the show, as both of them grow as people, theh become best friends. At the start of the show Keeley is dating Jamie, and a while after their break up she gets together with Roy. Despite his jealousy and the fact he hates Roy's guts, Jamie was always respectful of Keeley's decision. I think her history with both of them, the fact they both openly state they love her and it's very clear she loves them too, plus the development of Roy&Jamie from enemies/rivals to best friends would've been a perfect opportunity for polyamory. I see this as a V polycule, two best friends who happen to share a girlfriend, but maybe one day they could go from best friends to lovers too, who knows!

all of my tv writing teachers harped on the rule of three. if something happens once, twice, then it needs to happen three times because three is a pattern. (because, “a trio of entities such as events or characters is more humorous, satisfying, or effective than other numbers.”) because three is a triangle.

so, next week’s episode against man city has to be emotionally devastating for jamie. i’m almost certain we’ll see his father again. because it’s the rule of three. it’s the locker room scene in 1x10, and 2x08. it’s the combination of man city, and jamie’s father and it’s about measuring his growth and i cannot wait.

listen all im saying is if they make it happen that bisexual triangle will be the greatest piece of foreshadowing known to mankind

[eternallovers65]

Jamie introducing his boyfriend and girlfriend to his mom and step-dad. Never beating the throuple allegations

[tasteslikevelvet]

can’t stop thinking about the 3x06 “in some Native American cultures the triangle symbolized home” to the 3x11 jamie’s “a suitcase is like a drawer without a home” to the 3x11 jamie’s mom’s “off you go. go home” while nudging jamie towards keeley and roy timeline.

Jamie Tartt was born with an aching hunger just below his breast. It’s a greedy, selfish thing that gnaws on his ribs and claws at his stomach—he wants more than he’s got any right to. He was born with an open pit in his chest, a cavern between his lungs and his heart, and nothing he’s ever done has been enough to set it filled. Not even his name is his own.

"do you know you're being baited by the writers and you'll be disappointed in a week" baby i'm the one that put the hook in my mouth and i'm the one reeling myself in, who gives a shit what happens in the actual television show

[coop-of-coffee]

you know... the last character i got obsessed with (Charles Avenue 5) also had a massive crush on the depressed bisexual lead. it was painfully obvious, he was down SO bad for him and. a few episodes later, he pretty much admitted to be in love with said lead.

now, if we take this example, we can assume it's only a matter of time until we see Trent Crimm admit he's in love with Ted Lasso, or at the very least, for it to be clear for the audience as in confirmed. canon.

(if you're into comedies/sci-fi, you should check out Avenue 5. Hugh Laurie is the lead I'm referring to. if you even care)

[disasterbijamietartt]

I’ll have to share my predictions more often, since I had “Keeley and the female VC-owner will totally hit it off” (and then we’ll get wlw and mlm solidarity when Roy x Jamie happens) on my list and feel very smug about myself now.
