First, Good luck on your GED! Second, when youâve got the time, any Chris and Zach headcanons?
I canât find any of my old CtD headcanons, and Iâve kinda forgotten some of my own hcâs about my own damn characters đ so weâre just gonna wing this shit okay ily and thank you so fucking much for sending this in! Also wasnât sure if you wanted separate or Chris/Zach so I went with the laterđ
Chris was friends with Damon before he was friends with Y/N and Zach, and Zach was friends with Y/N before he was friends with Damon and Chris
But the more time that Y/N and Damon spent together, meant the more time they all spent together
At first they didnât get along bc they were total fucking opposites. Where Zach was loud and craved everyoneâs attentions and had the ability to make everyone laugh, Chris was more quiet with a smile wider than the universe
Eventually though, after a few months, they began to balance each other out. Zach was able to adapt to Chrisâ quietness and Chris Zachâs loudness, and soon enough they opened each other up
Zach was always so loud because of how often he was ignored and neglected before the foster home, and Chris was quiet because he learned to live in the shadows to avoid detection and trouble
So, after a few years, Chris learned to give Zach the attention he craved and needed in order to quiet him down. An arm slung over his shoulders, flashing him a funny meme on his phone, wrangling him to his while he played video games. As long as Chris was touching or talking to Zach, he had a tendency to quiet down and actually focus on the things around him
Same goes for Chris. Zach is the only person that can manage to wrile him up and get him shouting or laughing hysterically. Sure, Damon and Y/N can him to talk plenty and grumble about Y/Nâs dumb impulses or Damonâs stupid authority issues. But only Zach can get his vocal chords vibrating. Zach keeps Chris out of his own head most of the time and reminds him that what happened when he was younger wasnât his fault, and no matter how quiet he was wouldnât change a thing
Once they become official though, theyâre obnoxious (adorable)
All four of them have codependency issues, no matter how you look at it. But once they pair up and start dating within the group, shit just gets worse
Theyâre always together, regardless of whatâs going on. Thankfully in California there arenât too many homophobes or bigots or racists to deal with, so they donât have to constantly be looking over their shoulder, but even the thought of how dark the world is getting makes the two of them shiver sometimes
âWeâve killed people. We can do it again if anyone gives you two shit, you know that,â Y/N would say whenever they would come to her or Damon with underlining worry.
âThatâs not the point. We shouldnât have this fear in the first place.â
âYouâre right, I know, and Iâm sorry I canât make it better for you guys. But Damon and I wonât let you fall without a fight, weâve got you.â
The gang goes to all of Zachâs sport games, depending on what heâs decided to do for the season, and Chris paints his number (16) on the inside of his wrist
Chris doesnât do school participation, or school in general. He usually skips with Y/N, so Zach will often bring him notes and help him study if he decides he wants to show up for a test.
Only thing Chris really does look forward to at school is art class, which heâs enrolled in like 3 classes worth. If heâs proud of a piece heâs made Zach will hang it up in their room and post it on his socials (he tries convincing Chris to make an anonymous instagram account for his artwork, but Chris doesnât wanna risk getting caught up in the fame and popularity that could occur)
Theyâve only ever broken up once, a year before the gang left for the Cortez. It was a messy fight, one that Y/N and Damon got pulled into and it ended up shattering the group for a few weeks. Nobody was talking to anyone and they all became to morbidly depressed, their foster parents put them into emergency therapy
Thatâs how they all figured out they were truly codependent and had a problem, but none of them wanted to fix it if it meant spending more time away
So Y/N and Damon had to do the cliche âshove the two lovebirds in a locked room until they kiss and makeupâ bullshit, while also figuring out their own issues
None of them talk about the fight it was so bad, but now the 4 are more tight-nit and know how to work around arguments to keep that from happening again
