This is very funny, but first:

ANYWAY

Yes to all of this.

Y'all wonder why I once said Trevor is totally mom, this is a prime example. He gets woken up one too many times by screams of "MATT YOU BASTARD" at 3 am, and then there's a speech about "No more Mario Kart in the living room, you kids are too loud!"

He will allow them to play in their rooms, as long as "you're far from my room and you at least try to keep it down."

It does not work. He still gets woken up by slamming doors and shouts of "no, fuck this, im going to bed. MATT YOU SUCK" that's when the full ban goes into effect.

"You can't behave, you get your toys taken away, that's just how it goes!"(Like I said, he's totally mom here.)

But because the universe loves to laugh at Trevor, the mobile app comes out within a week of the ban. Now he's got these assholes racing under the table during fucking crew meetings, which isnt great. And during jobs, what the fuck. A hit gets cut short because "I know that asshole is in his cave beating my record, I just know it. Forget the plan, kill this dude and let's go."

(But honestly, this has nothing on the summer of 2016, when half the crew was obsessed with Pokemon Go. One of the few times Larry actually ventured out on a heist, and he and Matt disappeared halfway through because "There was a Lapras! What the fuck else were we supposed to do?"

"And we both got a little closer to a Dragonite, I'd say our heist was more successful."

"Guys what the fuck, you could have told me-"

"Relax, Jeremy, I stole your phone and got them for you too."

You’re so right, but once Jack realises how much power she has with mom kisses she’ll be unstoppable

oh okay thank you ellen!!! i know ze and galm too just from among us streams with jeremy. 

That was a mistake.

The moment Trevor finds out that the heist was an utter failure and that the two together are chaos incarnate, he makes a note with their names crossed out and a bold red not saying "Do Not Pair".

The next time Gavin gets paired with a new member its Fiona. By some grace of god they actually get their job done so this time when they return Trevor makes a new note with their names and a star stating "Only under parental supervision". Said "parent" somehow always ends up being Michael.

I adore the Fiona+Gav+Michael dynamic, it's very 'lets draw straws to see who the grown up has to be' But you're absolutely correct that it's always Michael. He'll draw a metaphorical long straw, but the other two just refuse to abide by the straw system.

The thing is though they work exceptionally well together? They're absolute open books to each other and it doesnt even take an actual system to be able to communicate on a job. They'll be carrying on talking about whatever dream scenario Gavin has cooked up, and Trevor pops in the comm line just "What the fuck are you three talking about?"

"If you had dream powers that affected real life, would you learn to lucid dream so you could harness them properly? Its simple shit, Trevor, keep up."

"Michael dont encourage him. Can we just focus on the mission for five seconds? Please."

"Relax, Gavin already cut the power and Michael's upstairs. We're cool."

"How the hell could you possibly know that, all you guys have been talking about is using dream powers for free ice cream!"

Fiona just tsks into the mic. "Learn to read the tone, Trevor."

I love the image of Trevor with fuckin employee evaluation folders. I picture him with little stamps that are like 'Success! :)' and 'Failure! :(' If he had a nickel for every time he had to use the 'Success Technically But Also An Important Building Burned Down So Maybe Don't Do This Again' stamp he'd have... Well ok he'd only have like ten cents but it is weird it happened twice.

I cant even imagine the chaos a Lindsay+Gav job would bring. Two idiots thrilled to have made it out, done it right, calling up like "You didn't believe in us but our boat says otherwise! Get fucked!"

"You guys got on the wrong fucking boat and left all the money behind what the fuck are you talking about?"

Ok, so Fiona has been a member of FAHC for a while now and is just about to do her first Big Heist. She's stressed af because even though she knows she can do it, she's still scared she's gonna fuck it up somehow. Heist day comes and it goes off without a hitch (which is shocking because there's always that one thing). They get back to the base and the first thing Gavin says to her when he sees her is that he's proud of her.

And Fiona just breaks.

The stress and everything from the day hit her and she's just standing there in the hall crying. But also because of Gavin. Her psuedo big brother is proud of her and its so much different then when Jack or Lindsay or any of the others say it. Gavin is freaking out thinking she's hurt and Fiona is trying to tell him that they're happy tears and for the love of god you're crushing me please let go.

This is so sweet? I love their friendship so goddamn much, they're just so caring and supportive and it really warms my heart. Like I think about that clip from Always Open all the time, when Fiona talks about the message Gav sent her, that he's so glad to have met her. It's such a genuine thing.

I imagine the moment comes during the celebration period, when drinks are flowing and everyone's adrenaline is still running high. And Gavin's so happy and so proud and just... Feeling on top of the world. So he says to her, in this quiet moment and with this big grin "I'm proud of you, you know."

And she thinks it's a joke, some offhand thing. "Why? Because I didn't flat out murder Jeremy for the shit with Michael?"

Gavin just laughs. "No, I'm serious. You did great. You were calm and smart and you saved all of our asses, really." He holds up his beer in a toast. "I'm really glad you're in this crew."

And it's such a genuine moment, and it means so much coming from him. She's heard the stories, how there was always a period of difficulty for new members when it came to Gavin. He could be stand off-ish, or avoid them, or what have you. It often took him months to be comfortable around someone new.

But their friendship started the moment they met. It was instantaneous, this sibling energy that they have. Gav is the first person she turns to if there's an issue, the first partner she wants on a mission. No matter what happens, they're going to laugh and have a good time, and that means the world to her.

And so she cries. She cries because she's just so goddamn happy to be here, to be part of something bigger than herself. So grateful to have someone like Gav on her side, to have any of them. Never in a million years did she think she'd wind up here. But shes so thankful to have done so.

Oh my god I cant believe we've been missing this for so long...

Oh my god I really started my (old) fic legacy by writing movie night hc's, MY TIME HAS COME

What movie/movies are they watching?

It fully depends on who's picking. When the whole crew is involved, they draw names out of Jack's Santa hat. Everybody gets fake mad that she rigged it, because half the time she gets picked.

If that's the case, she'll put on old Bill Murray movies. They've lost count of how many times they've seen the original Ghostbusters.

Lindsay once made them watch But I'm A Cheerleader and they had a great time roasting the shit out of the camp.

Michael will torture them with Just Plain Bad because their suffering amuses him.

Who fake complains about hating it?

Also Michael, even though he's the one who did it. He laughs the entire time though, mostly at Jeremy and Fredo.

Who starts throwing snacks at the others?

Surprisingly, Trevor. He's super sneaky at first, occasionally tossing popcorn at Gavin if he looks at his phone.

Fiona happens to catch him lining up a shot and full on chucks a handful of gummy bears at his face.

One sticks to his forehead and Jack cries laughing.

Who is sitting on who despite their protests?

Jeremy settles himself on Matt's lap even though Matt complains about not being able to see over him.

"Now you know I feel all the goddamn time!"

After the snack throwing dies down, Trevor will drape himself across the laps of whoever has claimed the couch.

He'll end up leaned against Jeremy-on-Matt and Matt will complain about this too.

Lindsay and Fiona are curled up in the lazy boy together. They are in fact adorable.

And finally, who falls asleep while they're still watching and has to be carried back to their bed?

Trevor. Which, because of the aforementioned draping, is not ideal.

Also Gavin, but he's usually sat on the floor in a beanbag so it's not as much of a problem.
