∇ - old age/aging headcanon

sorry this took so long!! <3 note: this goes from how they spend time together as they age to being old together because i had a lot to say

Even when the kids grow old, Robbie still pretends to be a villain, because he likes to play tricks on his boyfriend.

It doesn’t bother Sportacus because every day feels different.

When they want to live together, they need to choose: Sportacus likes how he can keep an eye on the entire town but there’s no way Robbie is setting foot in that flying death trap.

On the other hand, Sportacus doesn’t like sleeping in the lair. He feels like he can’t breathe, so low under the ground, and there’s only one exit. But Robbie likes how it’s far from people.

They settle for a small house away from the center of town, but still close enough that Sportacus can arrive in time when someone’s in trouble.

They often go on a picnic together. It is a sort of compromise: Sportacus gets to stretch in the fresh air and burn energy as much as he likes, while Robbie gets to nap all he want and enjoy some quiet time.

Robbie needs constant reassurances Sportacus isn’t gonna leave him, which the latter doesn’t mind giving. It becomes a daily routine, kissing him when he wakes up, reminding him how much he loves him at night.

Robbie is the one who cooks. He figured out early in their relationship what food they both liked, and has since then improved and created hundreds of recipes.

Sportacus never tries to make him eat sportscandy, but sometimes Robbie surprises him by stealing one of his strawberries, just to see his face.

Even though Robbie still wears his disguises for his games, he stopped using inventions and sugar apples, as he realised how dangerous it could be.

Sportacus stops doing his extravagant stunts. After all, it was only to impress the kids. So he runs, and swims, and stops doing his flips and showing off his strength… Except when Robbie is watching.

Sportacus also brings him flowers that remind him of Robbie.

Robbie pretends like he doesn’t care. Why are you trying to flirt with me we’ve been together for five years now. But secretly he loves it and keeps all the flowers pressed in one of his recipe books.

Sportacus feels like he isn’t needed now that the kids, well, aren’t kids anymore. Robbie makes sure those thoughts disappear from his mind.

They bicker a lot. Every day. - At least I say “fruit” and not “sportscandy”. - At least I don’t snore! But they both know the other loves those traits about them.

Robbie freaks out the day he sees his first grey hair. Sportacus tells him it makes him look even more handsome.

Robbie merely scoffs. You have nothing to say. You are as beautiful as the first day we met. Is it because of that damn healthy food? I bet it is. I bet you eat it just to look prettier than me and live forever. Like vampires.

They slow dance together. Gently humming to the music, eyes crinkling as they smile at one another, speaking softly about old times. They fight for who gets to dip the other one.

They read by the fire together, during the winter when it’s too cold for them to go outside. Robbie is horrified by Sportacus’ reading material.

Do you realize you’re reading some dark stuff? You?? Those stories are not meant for children. Stop laughing, you’re a child! They get eaten in the story. I don’t care I told you the ending. Did I really marry you? Where is my husband? Stop laughing I said!

When Robbie’s back aches too much, Sportacus gives him a massage. And if he still grumbles after that, he kisses him until he stops.

When Sportacus becomes too old to exercise, Robbie teaches him how to do crochet, how to cook, anything to make sure his boyfriend – yes, he still calls him that after all this time – isn’t bored.

Sportacus pretends like he doesn’t notice but deep down it warms his heart.

They share the garden. Robbie has the prettiest flowers in the whole town while Sportacus tries to grow as many sportscandy as possible.

They bicker about who takes up most of the garden. - The roots of your magnolia must go way beyond your borders. - Really? The shade of your apple tree is what keeps my roses from blooming properly! - Well, those petals sure are on my side of the garden. - SPORTACUS I SAW YOU PUT THEM THERE YOURSELF!

Hey, did you need this picture? :) xo iwasntscared

GOD BLESS AMERICA THANK YOU GREATLY

waxflower: are you a bee or a butterfly person? a dog or a cat person?

I love butterflies! the Pacific Science Center in Seattle has a room where you can enter and butterflies fly all around you and sometimes they’ll land on you and it’s amazing! and I definitely prefer cats, but I love dogs too.

marigold: what’s your favorite tea?

I like vanilla chai tea! I can’t drink really bitter teas but I love the flavor of vanilla chai. (however regular chai tea is just… too much)

golden rod: are you more of a baker or a cook?
