#columboposting

See, my wife, she’s better at this whole “tumblr” thing than I am. Got a few “sideblogs,” in a few communities, but me, I just keep it simple, y’know? Still learnin’ the ropes and all that.

Well despite all that I’ve still managed to wind up with a few “mutuals” which from my understandin’ (and I could be wrong) signifies… a certain level of friendship. So I pay attention to the post, because when your friend talks, well I figure you oughta listen. And, pardon me if I’m wrong, but I coulda sworn I remember this particular post you made…

Y’see I remember thinkin’ it was funny at the time, because you mentioned in the post what time it was in your timezone and wouldn’t you know it, it was the same time where I was. Funny how that works out, isn’t it?

Now I’m not one for jumpin’ to conclusions, but unless you’ve moved recently, that means we share a timezone. Hell of a coincidence, that. Big ol’ internet out there and the two of us just happened to be in the same timezone… ah, but I’m gettin’ sidetracked. Where was I… right.

Awfully funny then, that if we share a timezone, that you’re postin’ at this hour. But that’s none of my business. Although I can’t help but remember; didn’t you say you haven’t been gettin’ enough sleep?

Oh you bet your sweet bippy I do!! Here’s a little list of headcanons I got for these lovelies.

Although I could see them meeting after the war and bonding over their time, I really like the idea of them meeting during the war. Columbo was mainly on KP duty, but he got sent to the 4077th after his camp was under fire and was injured. Once he’s sent there, he couldn’t help but notice the corporal that’s inexplicably dressed in a candy-striper nurse’s uniform. And he also had wonderful bedside manner, so that’s a plus! Once he’s sent back to his own camp, Columbo and Klinger became pen pals and the rest was history!

The two really try to embrace each other’s cultures. There have been plenty of times where others have looked down upon Maxwell’s Lebanese heritage (and love of his hometown), but Columbo? He wants to learn more, especially about the food! And Maxwell loves hearing about Columbo’s Italian heritage and traditions.

Their “honeymoon” was in Toledo ofc

The best part of their day is when Columbo finally gets home from work. Whether it be staying up to watch a Bette Davis movie marathon or him crawling late into bed after Max has fallen asleep, it just feels right. No more worrying about a case, no past anxieties from the war, just the coziness of being with a loved one.

Klinger doesn’t dress as femininely in public (for safety purposes), but he does get to indulge in his love for fashion at home and certain events. Even though Columbo isn’t as into fashion and such, he’s really impressed by his abilities. It certainly helps that Max has the legs for it,,,

God love him but Columbo CANNOT listen to the “hang gliding over the camp with fuzzy pink slippers” story. He gets airsickness just thinking about it.

I had seen Columbo around on tumblr before tbh, but I didn't know much about him other than the fact that he mentions his wife whos never shown a lot. Also no ones ever mentioned that the show, for the most part, is told from the killers perspective rather than Columbo's himself. You dont really get to see how Columbo solves anything at all.
