Dressing the 141 up in a couples Halloween costume
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Price
Is initially pretty lukewarm to the idea because he thinks he's too old to dress up for Halloween :(((
But with just the right amount of convincing + puppy dog eyes from you, he'll eventually go along with it
However, he's adamant that he's not going to shave. So you either have to give him a bearded character or resign yourself to seeing a mustachioed fairy
In the end, you think he makes quite a dashing Captain Hook (move over Jason Isaacs, there's a new captain in town)
If it's a party you're dressing up for, he'll go and have a great time (i.e. get absolutely sloshed and terrorize people with the fake hook)
Gaz
Is suuuuuuper into Halloween because it's his favorite holiday
He goes all out every year. Like, all out. Like, we're talking planning 6+ months in advance levels of obsession
In fact, you're not even the one who brings up the idea of doing a couples costume. He does, and he already has a theme in mind: Star Wars
He has a hyper-detailed Han Solo costume ready to go, complete with the blaster and boots and everything (yes, he made it himself, and yes, he's very proud of it)
You'll end up being 45 minutes late to the party because he won't stop taking pictures of you two posing in your outfits
Soap
Isn't opposed to the idea of dressing up, but there's a slight problem… He's already promised someone else that he'll match with them
You're like ??? when he tells you that, but end up chuckling once you learn who said person is: his four year old niece
He's the gallant knight to her glittery princess, and he's planning on taking his role very seriously
But he'll feel bad for leaving you hanging, so he'll run to the store and buy a pair of wings and a tail so you can tag along as a dragon or smth
You'll end up skipping the party so you can go trick-or-treating with them, and have much more fun that way anyway
Ghost
Is by far the least on board with the idea
He vehemently wants nothing to do with it – the party, the dressing up, nada
It'll take so much begging and bartering on your part to get him to finally cave in (the specifics of what you offer him, I'll leave up to your imagination ;))
No matter what costume you choose for him, he's gonna be snarky about it
"How the hell 'm I supposed to see with this bloody triangle on my head?" "It's a pyramid, Si." "Tha's what I said."
He'll stay at the party until he thinks you're satisfied with his attendance, and then he's Irish goodbye-ing it out of there without a second thought
Bonus - Full squad costume
If you're somehow able to convince the whole squad to dress up together, there's only one theme I see them doing: the Hundred Acre Woods
Price would be Kanga because there's no one else that accurately emits that fatherly motherly aura
Gaz would joke that he's going as Roo to accompany Price, but will change it last second and show up as Piglet
Soap would bounce on Tigger before anyone else could claim him (he's sooo Tigger-coded, I can't explain, he just is)
And lastly, for Ghost, I can think of no better fit than the king of brooding himself: Eeyore <3

Hello!😙 I have another tangfei headcanon if you like. After they became "almost friends" in the series, one day Tang yi sees Shaofei crying. What does he do? only if you like, because a fandom is nice when everyone enjoys sharing things without obligations😊
heya!!! okay i knowwww i took super long to answer you ask and that’s because i kind of wanted to write a fic on this but i figured i’d answer it first and write the fic later hahahaha! firstly, thank you headcanon anon (i assume you’re the same one who’s been giving me headcanon asks) you have my eternal gratitude for putting ideas in my head!!
so - they become ‘almost friends’ after tang yi gets shot at and i think this might also be set before shao fei gets shot, but after he’s moved into tang yi’s house, after the massage and after shao fei realises that he likes tang yi!! (and in the novel, canonically shao fei cries after he realises that he likes tang yi and thinks tang yi doesn’t like him back this is chapter 5 i think)
i can’t imagine shao fei really crying for small things, he’s always the pillar of support ya know? so it has to be something really major for him to be crying, so… okay, this is gonna be long but:
1. Shao Fei’s pretty reliable in the police station and people get along with him pretty well, but it’s known that he’s a persistent person when it comes to Li Zhen and Tang Guo Dong’s murder case, and because of that some asshole police officers in the precinct like to poke fun at him for it from time to time, like asking him if he’s finally given up yet, if he’s finally admitted that LZ is a corrupt cop, that he should just cut his losses while he still can instead of embarrassing himself and his team by hounding Tang Yi etc. and it gets worse when they find out that Shao Fei actually moved himself into Tang Yi’s house
2. Shao Fei isn’t the kind to retaliate in a fight because, he’s a cop, and even if he could totally take the fuckers down in a fight he can’t because they’re his colleagues and all he can do is just glare and ignore, and they don’t do it very often anyway because they know Shao Fei can beat them into a pulp, but they also know that Shao Fei has no way to retaliate which is why they continue to insult him
3. We know that he has a photo of LZ and him on his desk, and he hides his music box probably at Shao Fei’s table as well 
4. One day, he returns back to the office (he’s staying with Tang Yi still and being his bodyguard and shit) to grab some case files, and because he’s there, he gets roped into half a meeting with interpol and Captain Shi because they’re there coincidentally and see him, and they all know he’s assigned himself to Tang Yi, so out of curiosity they ask him how’s it going etc.
5. Interpol chief throws in some barbs about how he’s wasting his time and also chiding Captain Shi for spoiling Shao Fei and letting him do whatever he wants - and SF is already in a shitty mood when this happens
6. He goes to the washroom later and he hears the usual two asshole officers making fun of him again while he’s standing right there, and SF can’t really do anything but grit his teeth and move on
5. He returns to his desk and that’s when he sees it - the photo of him and LZ, the photo frame shattered into pieces on the floor by his desk, and the photo torn, with shoe print marks over it and it’s ruined from dried coffee stains (everyone else in team three is still in a meeting so they don’t see this happening)
6.and his heart just BREAKS after the day he’s had, after being reminded that after 4 years he still can’t solve LZ’s case, and TY doesn’t like him, and is everything he’s doing for naught? SF’s pretty damn stubborn but I’m sure there were little moments where he just thinks.. what is he doing wrong and how long can he last doing this? But then he always bounces back because even if no one believes in LZ he will
7. but anyway, he picks up the tattered pieces of the photo and cleans up the mess - he has an idea who did this but when he sees the two officers standing at the corner and sneering at him, he almost goes over and starts a fight because how dare they touch his precious things when his phone rings - it’s Jack, keeping him updated on his and Tang Yi’s next location so SF can catch up, so he abandons his plans for a fight first
8. he’s totally out of it the rest of the day, so much so that Tang Yi notices, and Jack does too, and while the both of them exchange looks in the rearview mirror they don’t say anything
9. Tang Yi finds SF’s silence disconcerting, and at night after a quiet dinner and after SF retires back into his guest room, Tang Yi is about to sleep, when he decides that he should walk past SF’s room, and the door is ajar - that’s when he hears the sniffles
10. startled, TY opens the door and SF jumps to see who the hell is here and TY stills as he sees SF’s red-rimmed eyes and the dried tear tracks down his cheeks - SF hurriedly wipes them away with his sleeve and indignant, asks what TY is doing here and seriously can’t he knock?!!
11. TY’s first reaction is to say “it’s my house”, and then SF’s face crumples because he can’t deal with TY right now, and TY then asks what happened? of course SF isn’t going to tell him what happened and he shoos the man out of the room and locks it after him - still, TY goes downstairs, and brews a cup of tea, and then goes back upstairs - this time, he knocks, and SF looks really annoyed when he opens the door at TY’s insistent knocking, and when he sees that TY brought him a mug of tea, his demeanour softens somewhat
12. TY leaves SF alone for the rest of the night, and in the morning, when SF is doing the dishes from breakfast downstairs, TY sees that SF’s room door is open and somehow walks inside - and that’s when he sees the ruined photo on SF’s desk
13. At this point I think TY likes SF quite a lot already even if he doesn’t wanna admit it, and he cares for SF quite a bit, so he gets Jack to find out what the hell happened - and Jack being Jack, and also because Jack knows ZZ, he collects the info he needs, pieces it together, and then reports what happened to TY
14. I HAVEN’T REALLY THOUGHT OF HOW TY WOULD HELP SF out in ‘punishing’ the two asshole officers because he can’t get ppl to beat them up right, cuz he’s reformed and all that, but i know he’s going to do something, just haven’t figured it out
15. and then because TY would have hired a PI or something to dig out everything on SF and LZ the moment LZ and TGD died together and SF started hounding him, TY has a copy of that photo of SF and LZ together
16. and somehow, when SF returns to Tang Yi’s home a few days later with TY, he goes back to his room and sees a brand new photo and photo frame on his desk
17. SF puts two and two together and he’s grateful, and when they have dinner later in the evening, SF and TY keep exchanging small little smiles and looks (smth like the scene in the car where TY opened the bottle of water for him) and TY being extra nicer and more gentle to him than usual
So yeah I’m gonna write a fic on this, and the cute parts will be more obvious - It’s mostly plot at this point heh but I thought if I left it to when I actually write the fic your ask would never be answered!!!

gather round fellow crackheads, it is time for me to break down sign by none other than the captain of our ship and expose how not-subtle he was
friendly disclaimer: jeremy hasn’t shared the official lyrics for this song jeremy renner sir i know you’re stalking my blog so like get on that thank you! so anything wrong is on me, i’m going by ear
ALRIGHT LADIES so, we all know that after engagement number #3 jeremy renner said he gave no single fucks anymore and that he was gonna call this bitch OUT and while i knew this was coming all the way back in the days of 2014, i was not. expecting. this. shit. i need to preface by saying i did not think this song was about scarlett until we got to the chorus and after that, i had to comb through every lyric and realized that even if you don’t hear “oh scar” it is about her, welcome to the hell in which i break it down for ya. i’m gonna try to stay as clear to what i personally think is the most unbiased version of the rennerson timeline as i can, so if you have any contributions you would like to make as well, SEND ‘EM TO ME we are officially in crackhead hour! as the vine once said THIS IS ALL MY OPINIONNNNN! it’s all jeremy’s fault so he can’t say shit to us! alright, buckle up!
i went down to the river and lost my mind i said lord won't you save me just one last time thought i told ya i was looking for a sign
alright, well, first of all, we KNEW you lost your mind. got that much, good sir. so in my unbiased timeline scarlett and jeremy have hooked up at least one time. we all know that they’ve had a super flirty friendship for YEARS now and during the our town play just about anybody who was in the room and has reported back to the internet said that their nonverbals were off the charts and that there was obviously some kinda something that either was/had gone on in the past with the two of them (duh). 
to me, this verse talks about a situation where jeremy and scarlett are together and how whenever he’s around her, he just kinda loses his mind? there’s reference to them hooking up in their whole weird “no strings attached we’ll still be just friends after we kiss or have sex or whatever and we won’t get into a relationship!” agreement thing even though that’s not what jeremy really and truly wants from her. he wants a sign that she wants him for real for real and he’s gonna ignore everything saying that issa bad idea to Go There and just shoot his shot, hoping that the lord or something will save him from himself and all his rather poor impulsive decisions & something different will come of it (spoiler alert: it doesn’t) 
had it once wonder if i would get it twice peace of mind only comes in the afterlife thought i told ya i was looking for a sign 
...i mean, how fucking obvious? is this? he had her once. wondered if he would get her twice. the peace of mind in thinking about that and everything that they could be will occur only when he is dead. he said it all, not me
i need something to believe in throw my hands up to the ceiling oh sky, won't you give me a sign tell me will the world one day ever be mine will it ever be mine will it ever be mine tell me will the world one day ever be mine
*cracks knuckles* this CHORUS IS LOUD, YALL. let’s start with the first two lines, “i need something to believe in / throw my hands up to the ceiling” i think the first part about needing something to believe in is generally straightforward?? after everything that he’s gone through, UNDERSTANDABLE! he needs something that he knows will be there long-term and that’s not gonna let him down since everything else kinda has????? that’s what i get, anyways??? he just wants something that’s real??? and then if you are throwing your hands up to the ceiling you are essentially saying “i give up” so i think this is him saying that he’s giving up on trying to influence the situation himself and is taking on the whole “what will be will be” stance, trying to put it in the universe’s hands because clearly he ain’t getting anywhere doing what he’s doing 
and then we get to the very end of the chorus with the line “oh sky won’t you give me a sign, tell me will the world one day ever be mine?” which threw my ass for a LOOP when i first heard it. maybe i’m a delusional fangirl but i absolutely heard “oh scar” the first time??? no matter if you read it as oh scar or oh sky, he’s asking for the same thing regardless: he wants to know if the world will ever be his. i don’t think this is necessarily in the fame money power glory sense because? that’s never truly been jeremy — my mind always relates back to this interview where they talk about how jeremy would have loved to have had more kids and how there’s a moment where he thought he and raincoat and ava would have been a real family forever and sksksk that part of the interview always breaks my heart but i digress! to him, the world is having stability in his personal life (he’s got stability in his career okay he’s an a-list actor with music and home renovation and he’s got it made. that’s not what this is about). he wants to settle down and raise ava full time, that’s been his mission since the day that child was born. he wanted to have more kids. he wanted to have a WIFE (“I’ve done so many amazing, cool-ass things in my life — but I think as we get older, there’s more value in doing something with somebody.”) AND A FAMILY. to him, i think having the world was having all the things he’d dreamed of and he was still missing that one part of it which was someone (scarlett) to raise a family and grow old with and he is asking if it’ll one day ever be his because he’s gotten close before and it fell through and sksksks okay i gtg
i was down on my knees i was living a lie i was king of the rubble just wasting time thought i told ya i was looking for a sign
okay, this is where i need yall to just like, hang in there and stick with me while i iron out my thoughts because this is where things get a lil more muddled depending on which way you wanna look at it
one way you can interpret this verse is that it’s about the s*nni situation. “down on his knees and living a lie” having ava obviously put him in an entirely new position where he was essentially at this woman’s mercy since she had his fucking kid and could VERY EASILY WALK OUT WITH HER (never forget her threatening to leave to canada with ava where he would have no say!) hence being down on his knees and then living a lie, the lie being him and s*nni’s marriage actually being happy or whatevs and him trying to own the mess it made in his life (don’t tell me s*nni didn’t complicate things for him) and making a throne on it, hence him being king of the rubble and him wasting his time in that marriage is just kinda straightforward — he thought he told y’all he was looking for a sign OUT!!! *cough scarlett is the out*
another way you can interpret this is still through the scarlett lens! “down on his knees and living a lie” she has him whipped, i think we all know and recognize this, so that’s where we get him on his knees, and then living the lie that something’s gonna change with her, that she’ll wake up one day and walk away from her other relationships or that she loves him back in the same way that he loves her (sidenote: ouch) and again, he’s sitting in the rubble of EITHER a) his own pile of failed relationships or b) where the two of them crossing the line destroyed him ever being able to just see her as a friend and he’s wasting his time waiting on her to come around and he’s like “bitch i thought i told you i was looking for some kinda sign outta you and that you wanted me”
sick and tired of running circles for miles and miles being lost ain’t ever really been my style thought i told ya i was looking for a sign
i think this is pretty straightforward no matter what stance you take for the first half of the verse: jeremy lee renner doesn’t play games, he doesn’t like getting the run around and going in circles that lead him nowhere. he doesn’t do being lost. even when he doesn’t quite know what direction he’s heading he’s got some kinda plan, something to keep working towards (bc that’s him) and being lost isn’t his style!! no matter if you read it about s*nni giving him hell and he’s looking for scarlett to give him the out or scarlett just giving him the run-around now that she’s 2x divorced and finally single sksksks, they’re both doing laps in his head and causing him to lose sight of what he really wants (bc he’s either rolling over on his back for s*nni since she’s got his kid and he won’t jeopardize it regardless of what he really wants outta the love department aka scarlett OR he’s rolling over on his back for scarlett deluding himself into thinking he can live with her jerking him around because he would do anything for that woman and to stay in her life)
he thought he said HE WAS LOOKING FOR A SIGN aka some kinda sign that will help him find his fucking way out of whatever disaster and into the life where he gets the world in his hands not on his fucking back
i didn't want to have to sell my soul so i took the hard road please won't you show me a sign
THIS BRIDGE WAS?????? WHEW??????? “i didn’t want to have to sell my soul” i think he (and we) all know that he would just about do anything scarlett asked of him, even if it’s something that’s not really him? he’s that whipped? and i think this is him saying that he didn’t want to compromise who he is just for something that he wanted, when he knows full well there’s a chance it’s not going to be a fair trade and he won’t get all of what he wants from her — that she’d walk away or they’d really ruin their friendship or smth they can’t bounce back from??? so he takes the hard road and he takes the step back & says “what will be will be”, he puts the ball in HER COURT because if it’s coming from her then that’s how he knows it’s for real for real. IT’S WHY HE SAYS PLEASE JUST SHOW ME A SIGN bc scarlett sis if you give him a sign then he’ll hit the pedal heavy metal but until then he’s content to take the back seat and love you like a friend???
in conclusion: jeremy renner ain’t subtle, this song is about wanting scarlett johansson (but not having her because she’s a dumbass who literally finds all her boyfriends on the shelves at the food lion) and i really and truly don’t know who he thought he was fooling with all of this, thinking that the subliminal would remain subliminal, that man couldn’t do something discreetly if his LIFE DEPENDED ON IT mister “she makes me want to be more of a man” renner
if you read all of this i am so absolutely sorry but i’d love to hear your thoughts on it as well and how you interpret the song (or any of his new songs tbfh) ok thanks for coming to this wildly pointless tedtalk
