it’s actually still cracking me up SO BAD that henry is canonically able to order the twins away. third parent to bill and ben y’all.

sun shines the sky is blue thomas is a tank engine edwards type is green dames in despair

boco and henry get on really well due to their similar hardships w/technical issues- boco thinks henry can be a bit silly at times but he still grows very much onto him

edward and henry are slowburn mutual pining friends to lovers GETTING there

edward and boco are the already domestic might as well be married type

edward comes to the realization that he basically has two work partners

henry and boco are amiable and know enough abt edward to agree that he loves them both and either way for one of them to court him it has to be a package deal w/the other as well

reactions towards all three of them in a polycule are usually very shocked

“wait, I though edward/boco were ALREADY together???” and some expect henry to be the unlucky third wheel but then he puts bill and ben in their places like he’s been a parent for years and then proceeds to make out w boco GREEN TWERP X GREEN TWERP

BoCo: Now, now! You two need to work together and arrange a train!

Bill and Ben: NO!

Bill: He started it!

Ben: Well, you were being—!

BoCo: Why, isn’t that Big Angry Uncle Henry over there?

Bill and Ben: …

BoCo: Why, yes Henry! These silly little engines have not arranged your train yet!

Bill: OKAY WE’RE SORRY WE’RE SORRY-

Ben: JUST PLEASE DONT CALL HIM OVER—-

Henry: …BoCo, was the ‘Big Angry Uncle’ bit necessary?

BoCo: You must understand that your presence does wonders on the twins. Sorry to play it up, it’s just too effective. 😊

Edward: Yes, sorry, Henry. It was either you, or a new scary story. We figured that they’d grown out of believing in ghosts though, and you did say that you wanted to be more involved. 😘

Henry: Actually, you both know what? I could play a ghost… remember the glow-in-the-dark paint?
