#cg!franco

— coyle originally chose franco to be his caretaker because he figured that since franco regressed, he could regress around franco just like how franco regressed and acted childish around him.

— franco thinks coyle is much more relatable compared to his bond with the other prime assets, considering their trauma was quite similar. despite showing "hatred" towards eachother, coyle is nicely cared for behind those curtains

— franco has no idea how to cook, so him and coyle namely feed off of whatever is left in old vending machines and stuff. (or they resort to pistachios)

— coyle is almost rarely aware of danger when regressed, so franco has to keep an eye on him just so he doesnt snag barbi's lupara, or his own cattle prod.

— franco typically endulges in classical games with coyle like peekaboo, tag, or hide and seek.

— ^^^ barbi also adores using pet names on leland, usually ones in italian like mio lupo, bellissimo ragazzo, mio bambino, and etc.

— coyle uses paternal terms/names on franco aswell, depending on how little he is. if he's big, he'll say pa or frankie, but if he's little, he'll say papa or ba-ba (short for barbi or bambino).

— franco HATES, HATES it when leland gets dirty. he doesn't pressure coyle immediately into taking a bath, but he definetly has to consider it later on. (spoiler alert, coyle fusses. alot)

— even when coyle isn't regressed, franco still feels slightly protective over him sometimes when a reagent throws something at him. coyle attempts to brush it off and shrug about it, but franco isn't having it.

— if coyle happens to regress during a trial, franco will praise him with small displays of affection after it ends, saying things like ' you did so well ! ' , telling him how much of a good cop he is, and etc.

— leland constantly needs something to bite down on or chew on when little for oral stimulation, and if he doesn't have it he typically gets very frustrated and sad. so, franco lets him borrow his own pacifier sometimes when that kind of situation occurs.

— franco is great at keeping secrets . he’s had deep , embarrassing ones in a lifetime , so he eventually got used to keeping them well , the same way he does now for you .

— franco is more of a pleasing caregiver, always trying to fit into your interests or hobbies . he lets you ramble about them for hours on end sometimes !!!

— he gets VERY prideful if you draw a picture of him , boosting his self esteem to the max , just to make it clear he loves your hardwork !

— franco is relatively okay with dress-up , but only if it’s something masculine like suits or anything like that . he views feminity as slightly embarrassing , and thinks he wouldn’t “look pretty in a dress” , despite your insistence . he’ll just kindly decline and ask for something else

— uses petnames like ' bambino ' , or ' bambina ' , depending on your gender . (if you’re GN , he uses ' lupo ' instead !)

— purposefully acts silly and dumb to make you seem like the smart guy when you find out something new , acting as if it was completely foreign to him

— during a tantrum , franco would usually calm you down by letting you borrow his pacifier or snacking on something . food is the savior for him

— only lets you sleep when he finds a comfortable position for you , franco doesn’t want you to wake up with any sort of pain
