hear me out tho: dakin and irwin at a music festival (based on a conversation with yu qin myskittlesexploded)
it's dakin's idea, irwin is somewhat Reluctant but they've both been working too much and need a break, one of dakin's friends from work is selling a couple of latitude tickets and dakin's just like "tom. tom we're going. the manics are headlining and you know how I feel about james dean bradfield”
irwin insists on packing camping gear and Sensible Clothes and dakin's just despairing because "it's a piss-up in a field tom this is not the time to be channelling your inner bear grylls - oh my god is that a fleece. tom if you wear that I'm not being seen with you"
once they get there dakin has to wrestle with the tent and he insists he knows what he's doing but he has never put up a tent in his life and it's harder than it looks and irwin isn't that much better either so it ends up being the joint effort of them and some helpful fellow campers (but somehow the tent miraculously stays up all weekend)
despite his reservations irwin gets really into it and his inner teenage hippie resurfaces
on the second day it's really hot so he just wanders around shirtless all day and my god dakin cannot wait to get him back in that tent
on their last night they end up in the woods with some people they just met and somebody's brought a guitar and they're singing round a campfire (well, dakin’s singing, irwin’s not drunk enough) and someone offers them weed
irwin's never done it, and dakin hasn't done it since uni so it is an Experience (when they get back to the tent they have some amazing sex and everything is amplified so it’s super intense)
