Up this mother fucking tree

Z: No we're not dating.

A: Zoe's nice and all but she's just a friend.

Z: Besides 'Lana's aro ace.

I don't know if I ever said anything about these two dating in a previous post or like their relationship status but they're not dating in this au.

C: I thought it was cute watching her lil eyes get wide everytime she took a sip of my soda.

C: *on the verge of tears* I regret everything.

Z: I'm not use to seeing Connor act in such a parental way. It's a little strange seeing how gentle he can be with Lizzy. I'm so use to him breaking things and screaming at the tiniest of things that seeing him like this is giving me whiplash.

Z: I can tell he's happy. I'm glad he's happy.

*casually rises from the dead with Starbucks*

Hello children. I live.

C: Yeah i still wear glasses, Lizzy falls asleep pretty quickly when I read to her.

C: She’s doing alright, she was kinda fussy near the beginning but apparently talking to our friends and family on FaceTime helps calm her down.

E: She does this happy little scream whenever she hear them and it’s adorable!

E: As for what we’re doing while in quarantine we’ve mostly been watching movies, and doing arts and crafts. Connors taken up crocheting and I’ve started drawing again.

C: Lizzy has started hiding around the house and it gives me a heart attack every time because she’s so small I’m afraid I’ll step on her so I just freeze in place and yell for Evan to find her.

C: She’s turning into a little gremlin I swear.

C: Here’s the thing.... whenever we leave Lizzy with my mom or with Zoe or Jared she gets excited and happy you know?

C: When it comes to the daycare on college campus she tends to... freak out. She’ll scream until her face is red and it breaks my heart every time so we try not to leave her there, but my mom isn’t always available and neither is Zoe or Jared.

E: We’ve tried leaving her with her favorite stuffed animal but that only does so much.

C: Its weird because she doesn’t freak out around Larry despite the fact she rarely sees him, we can leave her with him and she doesn’t freak out like she does at the daycare.

Haha time for some angsty little headcanons for little Lizzy:

Ok so I know Lizzy was from like a magic Anon and whatever but I’ve decided to give her a bit more background than that because why not. Anyway I like to think that Lizzy has Synesthesia more specifically Chromesthasia and that basically means that whenever she hears sounds certain shapes and colors come along with it. Like a slamming door makes a jagged bright red shape and a jingling wind chime makes overlapping light yellow circles. Things like that.

Moving on, the other day while drawing this I made myself sad by making a little backstory for Lizzy and the night she ended up on Evan and Connors doorstep.

Basically Lizzy’s mom is a teen mom who had to give up Lizzy because she had to run away from home and she didn’t wanna take Lizzy with her because she didn’t wanna drag a baby into her mess. So leaves Lizzy on the doorstep and as she’s getting ready to knock on Evan and Connors door she look at lil baby Lizzy and with a tearful expression tells her:

“I’m sorry sweetie, but I can’t take you with me.”

And like I said the lil baby has Chromesthesia and whenever her mama talks she sees these pretty pink waves that change width and shade with every inflection of her mama’s voice. She associates that shade of pink with her mom, and even though she doesn’t understand what’s being said to her that phrase has been associated with no more mama, no more pretty pink waves.

So whenever she’s left at the daycare and either Con or Ev say this phrase trying to reason with a crying infant (toddler?) it just freaks her out more. It doesn’t help that her mama looked like a mixture of her new dads just with green eyes. So when she looks at em she’s sees a bit of mama. She’s also grown accustomed to seeing her dads colors when they talk.

Evan is lines of sky blue that twirl and swirl around themselves and Connor is ripples of deep reddish purple that bends the space around him.

Connors family have similar colors but different shapes but the color let Lizzy know they’re family. Same goes for Heidi. For Jared it’s the funny shapes his voice makes that leave Lizzy giggly and happy and for Alana it’s the softness of the color in her voice.

I dunno maybe this is cheesy or like dumb y’all tell me.

Food: Anything messy.

Color: Pink.

E: I watch them when I’m on break at work or between classes. Sometimes when I’m at home I watch em with Lizzy and Connor.

E: Occasionally, if she gets really fussy or if she has trouble sleeping Connor or I will sing to her.

C: Depending on how heavy the rain is, we’ll either chill out inside and watch some movies. We’ll wait for the rain to stop so we can splash in some puddles. When the rain isn’t all the heavy and there’s no thunder or lightning Evan tends to just run out and dance around in it.

C: Heh...

C: I still remember the first time I saw him dancing around life a mad man in the rain. Spring had just started and we where at my place hanging out when I paused the show we had been watching and we could suddenly hear the rain. In the time it took me to process the fact that it was indeed raining Evan has already ran out. I had to scramble to pull on a hoodie and grab one on my out for Evan.

C: I was so confused, running after him asking him what was wrong and wondering what was going on. I thought maybe something freaked out or maybe he was having another panic episode but when I got outside and I finally saw him...God...

C: I don’t think my jaw ever dropped as fast as it did that day. He was beautiful with one of the biggest grins I’ve ever seen on his face. He was soaked to the bone water dripping off of him and his body illuminated by the street light outside. He was laughing and dancing and just swinging around without a care.

C: All I could do was stand there in awe, enraptured by what I saw. I think that was one of the moment that has me realizing.... I wanna spend the rest of my life with this man.

Mod Loki.

E: If you consider screaming along singing, then yeah she sings along.

E: The screaming doesn’t stop it from being cute tho.

C: The last time Ev and I went on real date where we actually go somewhere was before Lizzy came into our lives. We don’t really have time especially with work and school. It rare for us to have days where we’re both at home during the day.

C: Sometimes on weekends and late nights we leave her with Zoe since she isn’t attending college at the moment, Jared and Alana attend university out of state so they’re not really an option.

C: Even if Alana was around she’s not really our first choice, she’s a little to huh strung to be around kids by herself. And Jared well I don’t need that bastard stealing my baby girls love from me.

E: Well this year we decided that we would all be vampires. Connor was the most excited about it.

C: You didn’t have to call me out like that Ev.

E: Hush, we all know you’re enjoying this.

C: ...shut up.

E: We had Alana take the picture for us! She was the only one who could keep her hands steady enough while witnessing Lizzy in her costume.

Ay sorry for the lack of posting! But here have this for Halloween! Oh here’s some alternate versions:
