Thinking too hard about Carolina and Tucker after retirement; think abt secretly biggest geek Tucker who just so happened to have the insecurity/social inisght (depending how u look at it, hes either smart enough to not get bullied, or too repressed to be genuine/vunerable and it just works out in his favour) to keep them tucked away and not end up as the blue team version of Simmons, who's finally starting to apply the whole no more toxic bravado masculine shit he learned: having all these cool hobbies and intrests that he's slowly learning to be less ashamed of, in combination with Carolina; whose on this misguided, furious, quest to get a good grade in relaxing, and is learning to Have A Hobby TM. Thinking about her barging in on Tucker working on a sewing project of a cosplay for his new favourite series because she hasn't lived with other people long enough in so long that she still doesn't knock ever and him freezing like an idiot, caught in the decision between claiming its for hallowen (11 months in advance) or just melting into the floor out of embarrassment.
Thinking about him accidently launching into a big info dump abt something nerdy as all hell while their hanging out because thats a thing they apparently do now, and then suddenly hesitating and stopping in his tracks because "people don't normally let me talk this long. Why haven’tyou told me to shut up yet?" And then having to kind od sheepishly explain that "well, I usually get told to shut up at this point. And I mean I get it, I'd tell me to shut up too." And Carolina stares at him like he's stupid while she debates in her head wether you can beat self esteem into someone.
Thinking about Tucker and Carolina in retirement. Thinking about how that's her lame ass friend but also "DID YOU JUST CALL HIM LAME? NO SAY IT AGAIN CMERE-" Because that's her lame ass idiot and he is so fucking cool and don't you dare say otherwise.
Anyway i rewatched a bunch of the seasons now that I have them on DVD and wanted some background noise while working on art fight suff and now I have a fic to write post haste. THE BRAINWORMS PERSIST!
