Alright sorry for the wait! here’s the first part of the mini fic. 

(I know you mean just the radio, book and tv boys but I should just note the script had Crowley getting a baby he was supposed to raise. He lost him in five minutes...)

ahhh thank u!! nobody asked me abt my boy in forever thank u! i know @avoidingdestiny also asked for reed tooo! sorry im late to these lol timezones! 

malcolm reed 

what they smell like: coffee, whatever phase pistols smell of (id assume it’s a kinda metallic scent?) and the most plain allergen-friendly soap there is 

how they sleep (sleeping position, schedule, etc): boring pyjamas, but comedic socks his sister gets him, on his side. he’s pretty good at not moving at all when he’s asleep unless he’s sleeping next to someone, he will end up using them as hot water bottles bc he runs cold

what music they enjoy: ‘classic’ british rock, whatever that is in the 22nd century lol 

how much time they spend getting ready every morning: he has it down to an efficient ten minutes, and that allows for essential stuff as well as a whole ass three minutes to do his hair

their favourite thing to collect: miniature guns. like model one. nerd. 

left or right-handed: im so sure he’s right handed? ive stared at him long enough 

religion (if any): atheist 

favourite sport: rugby, only because i want yall to think of him in shorts, covered in mud and grinning like an idiot oh god sports au,,, someone let this man play rubgy

favourite touristy thing to do when traveling (museums, local food, sightseeing, etc): he hates touristy shit, but does buy bookmarks from most every place he goes, not that he reads physical books that much now

favourite kind of weather: calm and sort-of warm, the perfect weather for sentry duty and guns 

a weird/obscure fear they have: this man is terrified of guinea pigs. they’re small and untrustworthy and his sister’s bit him as a kid once and he lives in fear of guinea pig rabies. 

I’m cackling, because dude, totally cheating. 

Yes, on literally everything, except: brown eyes. Boring ol’ brown eyes. 

I sing in the car. And that’s literally it. 

Standard yes, my favorite season is Fall, but the fun part of Me lately is that I don’t really care about...like...most anything anymore. Even Halloween (my favorite holiday) makes me sad.

chocobith suggested that the ask might be combining two fics: Dreams and Circus Crowds by Selenayand the A Lunch Counter Love Story series by Saone.

AHH THANK U ! 

Reed

Headcanon A:  realistic

he’s the organised type, he keeps a journal it’s probably a bullet journal and he trusts pen and paper far more than technoology to remember things

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious

he can handstand like nobodies business. he never could as a kid but maddie rubbed it in his face enough he taught himself how to. it became a thing for them to yell handstand at each other and for them to drop everythign and do it. he practices regualrly bc it still happens now. his gut reaction to nayone saying handstand is to do one and one time this lead to him almost dropping his tray in the mess bc he overheard someone say it and he felt the need to prove himself. what a loser.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends

despite things getting better and being okay by the time they got to the expanse malcolm felt so disconnected from everyone he considered a friend and spent so many nights awake till morning, feeling very very alone in the darkness of space but of course you dont talk about that sort of thing and besides he has no one to talk to. it was a bad time for him. 

you know what is sad but actual novel-canon is this guy left everything in his will to trip uM bc he felt he had nobody else What

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.

okay sure he can’t have kids but he is a brilliant father who adopted 3 kids with his husband trip and they’re all amazing children who love him and he loves them more than anything in the universe 

Tucker 

Headcanon A:  realistic

he is exactly the kinda guy who takes pictures of you holding stuff you borrow off him especially his tools and will hunt you to the ends of the galaxy if you dont return his hypospanner when you’re done with it

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious

when he’s nervous he plays the old song, the macarena on the harmonica. its the only thing that soothes him.

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends

is saying he died alone in a chamber even a headcanon it happened on the show

when malcolm told him he left everything to him, trip changed his will to leave his comic collection to malcolm (because a lot was already going to family) but didn’t tell him. it made post TATV incident v emotional. think abt it.... 

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.
