I've been stupid busy so y'all get 2 day old Nimona headcanons
I feel like Todd would try really hard to be friends with the trio after everything went down
Bal is an absolute angel who can do no wrong so while he doesn’t forgive Todd he is willing to acknowledge his growth (sike he has the moral backbone of soggy cardboard and the character development of a rock)
Bal makes no attempt to befriend him but he’s also civil whenever he’s around
Nimona and Ambrosius on the other hand they’re not afraid to slam doors in his face and tell him to take a long walk off a short pier
There have been multiple times when they’ve had to hold each other back from beating the absolute shit out of him
And it’s not cause they’re scared of losing or anything
No they’re both confident they could kick his ass in 5 seconds flat
They’re scared he’s gonna try and twist it and figure out a way to make it seem like them harming him led to more of his “character development”
So they settle for mental torment
Before Nimona got comfortable with Ambrosius she gave him the shovel talk with an actual shovel in hand
He wasn’t offended in the slightest
Was he a little scared? absolutely
But offended? No not at all
If anything he was incredibly grateful that there was another person in the kingdom that cares for Bal as much as he does
Maybe a month into them trusting each other Nimona turns around and gives Bal the shovel talk
And he actually started crying
Nimona tried to stop and get him to calm down frantically asking him what’s wrong while shushing him
And Bal encouraged him to continue because this was the moment that he knew Nimona viewed Ambrosius as part of their family
I gave my headcanons in this post about how often I’d think the trio would cry which got me thinking about how they’d comfort each other
Ambrosius was very used to Bal’s constant crying so he’s pretty good at comforting people
So when Bal and Nimona do cry he doesn’t overreact
He’ll quietly console them and wait for them to be done before asking if they want anything
Food water a blanket
Anything they ask for he gets
Bal is a nervous wreck when the duo cries around him
He’s still not used to Ambrosius crying in general
And seeing Nimona cry is about as likely as seeing a double rainbow in a tornado
He tries to damn best to comfort them and most of the time it works (emphasis on most)
Nimona is just awkward around crying people
Because crying is something they don’t do often and they haven’t gotten too close to anyone in a long time comforting doesn’t come naturally to them
Most of the time they try and get the boys to stop crying by making them laugh or distracting them
And they didn’t realize how damaging that was until one day Ambrosius just said “Nim love all I want to do is cry please let me do that”
They started working on their comforting skills after that but it’s very much a work in progress
While Bal and Ambrosius are incredibly sappy dorks I feel like they don’t overdo it with the PDA
Like sure they’ll hold hands and kiss occasionally but it’s so small that most people don’t comment on it
But if someone tries to make a big deal about them kissing or holding hands they will go overboard just cause they’re petty like that
