Oooh lemme see what I've cooked up so far

Lash Headcanons

Sure, we all know Jacob Lash is an asshole, but he's surprisingly good with kids. Don't get me wrong, he doesn't want to sit around and babysit your tyke by any means, but he's pretty good at entertaining them. He's also not a complete dick to children... But he can be a bit of a prick in an amusing sense. "Hey, kid, did you know that the Lash can have all the candy he wants? You can't, though. Gotta eat your veggies to stay strong."

Despite the teasing above, Lash actually does eat pretty clean. Clean in the sense of no junk like candy, overly greasy or fried foods, and rarely will you see him drink a soda. He also doesn't drink a lot, and if he does drink, it's always something on the drier end, like gin or vodka.

...That also being said... He does have a sweet tooth. He pretends not to, but if he's ever going to stray outside of his diet, it's going to be for a baked good. His favorite are brookies.

Lash thinks he's better than everyone. Really, truly better. He doesn't hold a lot of respect for anyone... Anyone beside Seven. He's very intrigued by Seven, and holds him to a higher regard than most others. He's probably the one guy out there he wouldn't straight up go in and have a brawl against without training.

He's a bit of a comic geek. Hides it pretty well, but you can bet this mf is buying his favorite new comics on release. In fact, he has a guy who gets him releases a day or two early so he doesn't have to go wait in a line somewhere.

I don't have many yet just because I need some suggestions in my inbox for HC's/themes :, ) BUT I do have a couple!!

Abrams Headcanons

Abrams is NOT a patient man. Despite being a detective, a profession notorious for having long periods of stints with no activity towards what you're trying to narrow down, he grows easily frustrated when there's been no progress on a case as of recently.

Of all the vices he partakes in, drinking is his biggest. When he’s sitting down to review files, have a chat, after work, or during dinner, he’s usually seen with a glass of amber in his clutches. Bourbon neat is his preference. 

He’s kinda full of himself. He knows he’s a good detective, and he’s not afraid to fuck around and find out(with the instance of assuming he’ll come out on top). He’s a lot of brawn. 

…That being said, Abrams is well educated. He’s actually quite good with the law, and had considered pursuing a degree in that field instead. Unfortunately, he can be easily riled up should someone take repeated jabs at him, or something not go his way. It would always spell disaster in court. 

He prefers cases that are quick to close. Although he enjoys hunting around New York or other cities to pursue what is needed, any case that lasts for more than a few months really grinds his gears. He prides himself on his quick, thorough work, but that’s because he tends to be picky about the cases he takes on. 

He also did PI work for a while. He was good at it, but wasn’t good enough at trying to not look like a big ass demon obviously stalking someone. 

He can be a bit awkward when it comes to dealing with emotional situations. If there’s ever a time on a case where he has to question someone bawling their eyes out and he can’t calm them down within a couple minutes, he usually walks away from it. He tries to remain cordial, of course. “Here’s my card. Call me when you have the headspace to talk.” He does not want to sit there comforting a weeping widow.
