Was going through @polydamnory posts for the D.A.M.N polycule and it's inspired me to write down some of my own headcanons for these guys. Enjoy!

Dear and Damien are both the chefs of the polycule, Dear is probably the most trusted person to cook in Damiens kitchen unsupervised.

Huxely likes giving extra hugs to his partners whenever they're stressed out about something but it's really just an excuse to pick them up and drag them away from their laptop/whatever they're working on so they can get some proper rest. Has done this on both Damien and Freelancer when they both desperately needed a break from cram studying especially if the usual pleads to take a break don't intially work.

Dear has magic hands where whenever they run their fingers through their partners hair, they all melt at their touch. They turn to pudding as soon as those head rubs happen. They've actually helped a lot with migraines that Freelancer and Damien have.

Gavin, Freelancer and Dear have competitions sometimes to see who can fluster Lasko up more in one day. They all think he's adorable when he's choking on his words and trying to come up with a coherent sentence after mercilessly being teased. So far Gavin and Dear are neck in neck with these challenges.

Speaking of Gavin and Dear, Dear I feel like is someone who doesn't get flustered often which Gavin sees as a personal challenge to fluster them up whenever he gets the chance. Dear finds Gavin very cute whenever he tries to and flirts right back with that same energy.

This is more of a personal headcanon but from tallest to shortest it's Huxely, Dear, Gavin, Damien, Freelancer, and Lasko.

Lasko manages to get everyone into DnD and the polycule tries their best to schedule at least one session a month depending on their own schedules. Lasko usually DMs but Dear also DMs so Lasko can have a chance to play too. Gavin and Freelancer both shamelessly flirt with the DM no matter who it is and whenever it's Lasko it usually throws him off for a good minute or so.

Lasko gets cold very easily so he usually goes to Damien for cuddles when he's feeling extra frosty. Damien doesn't mind and likes having Lasko in his lap while he works if it keeps him warm.

Following up with that headcanon, Damien gets Lasko a shit ton of warm clothes, blankets and socks so he can wear em around the house around fall and winter because of how easily Lasko gets cold.

Freelancer smacks all their partners asses equally and with accurate precision.

Huxely I feel like would be a really good gardener for vegetables and fruits, Dear helps him with growing them. Every few months when certain fruits are in season, they bring em back to share with the polycule and make desserts outta them. Dear makes some killer peach cobbler, apple pies, strawberry pastries etc outta them and there's usually nothing left by the end of the week.

Gavin likes to playfully push Damiens buttons. Right when Damien looks like he's about to blow, Gavin kisses him and it gets to Damien every time lol. Gavin finds it highly amusing.

Freelancer likes giving gentle love bites to all their partners, it's not sexual all the time but whenever they're cuddling one of em or hugging them they have specific spots they like to go for.

For example, Freelancer likes giving love bites on Huxelys and Dears chests. For Damien it's his arms and chests if he's the bigger spoon while cuddling. For Gavin and Lasko it's their necks or arms, whichever is more accessible at the moment.

Dear most of the time is really good at hiding their emotions whenever they're stressed about something or just feeling sad in general but Huxely can pick up the signs pretty quickly. When it comes to his partners he's very observant and can tell when somethings off with any one of them and that includes Dear. Cuddling sometimes turns into a good cry sesh depending on how severe whatever is affecting Dear is.

Sure, I got a few!

Seths a no sabo kid (Stole this headcanon directly from @/stxph-artist) but can understand it if someones speaking to him in Spanish.

Seth doesn't drink much nowadays but he can hold his liquor pretty well.

Is a bit of a bug guy! He knows a lot about insects due to being outside a lot, specifically if they're poisonous or not. Also knows quite a bit about reptiles, rodents, birds etc etc because of it aswell.

He has the gene where cilantro tastes like soap.

Really likes chocolate covered almonds, favorite candys are Almond Joys.

Isn't much of a tech guy outside of cars, he gets the appeal of having a touch screen built in a car but God it gives him a headache trying to figure it out.

I feel like he'd be a great track n field type of guy in highschool if their highschool had one. One of the sprinters for short distances, a discus thrower or shot putter for sure.

Seth had a growth spurt first in middle school before Alphonse grew like a fucking tree in highschool during freshman year.

When camping he doesn't have a lot of signal on his phone, so he downloads horror audiobooks in advance to listen to while he's out in the woods. Has a few of his favorite scary story podcasts saved too, good background noise as he hikes.

Not much of a social media guy, really likes YouTube though, has a few posted vids about cryptids and such on there. Big fan of a YouTube channel called "Snarled", specifically their "Wanna Hear Something Scary?" series.

Can cook pretty decently, his go to meal is making chicken quesadillas. They're fairly easy to make with a few ingredients.

Lactose intolerant 😔

Alphonse headcanons that have been sitting in my drafts for like waaaayyyy too long so here ya go guys lol.

Alphonse when he first dyed his hair pink, it was his first time dyeing his hair at all and he didn't realize he had to wear gloves for it. His hands were stained pink for awhile after but it faded over time.

Al has never been a real good baker or cook until he met Boo, he's learned a thing or two since dating them and likes making pasta for dinner dates sometimes to make things extra 'romantic'. He likes coming up behind Boo real close, wrapping his arms around their waist when they're trying to cook something up while Boo raises an eyebrow at the totally non-suspicious placing of his hands. Al earns himself some smooches but gets playfully slapped on the hands by a spatula so he can behave himself until after dinner.

His drag queen name is Sweetie Bubblegum.

I like to think that one of Al's favorite breakfast meals is a good breakfast burrito with chorizo in it.

The BitterSweet polycule at last!!

It took me a bit to draw them all out but I'm happy how they turned out!

If you want to hear me yap a bit about my version of SugarBoo, feel free to read more below!

Some David headcanons I wanted to share alongside a few minor Angel ones, enjoy!

Davids dad used to bake Davids favorite cake for his birthdays when he was still alive. After his death it's hard for David to enjoy his birthday because it reminds him of the loss. When David and Angel got together, Angel despite being god awful at baking or cooking in general, still went out of their way to make him a cake for his birthday. The cake was borderline inedible but the whole gesture was something that David really appreciated.

Definitely a personal headcanon of how he looks like but I see him with more longer thicker hair, his dad had similar hair while his mom in the photos and videos he has of her has shorter hair. If he were to ever cut his hair shorter, I'm sure he'd definitely look more like his mom.

I can see him having a personal journal to write in, especially around the time his dad passed. He wasn't able to grieve properly due to his position as being the new alpha so he turned to writing his thoughts down instead. It was easier with a private journal and in a way it helped ground him enough to get through the week. David doesn't write much in his journals nowadays due to finally being able to properly grieve and Angel being a major part of his support system. But, he does occasionally look back on those journal entries to see how far he's truly come.

David is very much a well groomed person and takes care of his hair very well. Conditions that motherfucker almost every day and shampoos it every 3-4 days thoroughly. It's just part of his routine that he sticks to.

Really doesn't like energy drinks in general but absolutely is a coffee addict.

Has matching Minecraft skins on Minecraft with Angel whenever they play together.

Angel managed to convince him to watch a few Aphmau videos with them specifically the Pheonix Drop series and he lowkey was invested in Garroth as a character. Angel teased David that he was like Aaron in the series and now David doesn't like him anymore. (He doesn't hate Aaron, it's definitely more lighthearted than he lets on but he'd rather let Asher cook dinner any day than admit that to Angel.)

David is strangely really good at tic tac toe, he always manages to win and believe me when I say his friends have TRIED to beat him at the game with little to no success.

Makes it a point to try and cook with Angel at least once per week, quality time is apart of his love language and he treasures every moment with them.

David usually keeps his hair up in a ponytail but has let Angel stylize it before when they're just relaxing.

During the Quinn situation, David was definitely on high alert with the safety of his mate. He knows Quinn isn't stupid enough to try but knowing Angel could've gotten hurt like Darlin's friend who got attacked just by associating with them shook him to his core. I don't think he'd ever forgive himself if something did happen to them and he wasn't there to protect them.

Davids dad was a really good cook and made a lot of his own recipes, he always wrote them down on note cards which David has saved and kept safe in a tiny wooden box in the kitchen. When David misses his dad, especially around the anniversary of his death, he gets out one of those recipes and cooks it. It's nostalgic for him and eases some of that grief that still lingers.

David really hates the cold so when winter hits, Angel is his personal space heater throughout those frosty months. Though, he does like spooking Angel a lil bit with how cold his hands can get. He put his hands under their shirt one time when his hands were particularly cold and they nearly jumped.

Angel gives David playful love bites and David loves recieving and giving them.

David has trained his body to wake up 10 minutes before his actual alarm goes off in the morning so he can cuddle Angel longer.

Some poly shaw pack headcanons I thought of, I wanted to write it out after reading @polydamnory headcanon post. Enjoy!

Both Sweetheart and Angel can't handle greasy food very well, it gives them major stomach pains and headaches. David, Milo and Baaabe know this and have been active to avoid making foods with a lot of grease in it whenever it's their turn to cook dinner.

Darlin' can't cook that well but they're really good at grilling. Same goes with Sam but he's more cook than griller.

Darlin' has really rough and rigid hands, scarred over by the fights over the years. Sam has simialr hands and he likes to run his thumb over their palms since it's the softest area there whenever they cuddle and hold hands.

Sweetheart and Angel are a very dangerous duo in the sense of being very infamous pranksters within their polycule. They're plotting every other day and giggle mischievously about it.

Baaabe and David are seen as the most responsible aside from Sam out of all of them. Baaabe and David have very similar work methods, they're well organized, they keep their ducks in a row, very workaholic centered in a sense. Sweetheart dances between the lines of 'workaholic' and 'passionate about their job' often but they're getting better at it compared to David and Baaabe.

The rest of the polycule have to remind them to take breaks. Darlin' has absolutely scooped up Baaabe before out of their desk chair to get them to take a break and has no qualms of doing it again.

Darlin' at the beginning of the relationship with everyone definitely had a hard time asking for simple small affections so they'd stare at a certain person until they got the memo.

They did this with Sam at first when they first started dating and Sam explains what they're doing whenever it happens. The one person who cracked it on their own when they first saw it was Asher, he can read someone pretty well surprisingly and it wasn't hard to figure out what they wanted. (They wanted a forehead kiss.)

Angel absolutely has tons of funky lil photos of all their partners, all in weird but funny positions. Has the weirdest ones set as all their pfps in their contacts because it makes them laugh.

Milo had to help Angel find their phone once and called them on his phone. When they did find it, the picture for Milos pfp was his face poorly edited onto an elf on the shelf pic with the name "Santas Helper 💚". Angel proceeded to bust their ass off laughing while being chased by him. The nickname was Ashers idea because of course it was Ashers idea lol.

This is just my own personal headcanon for Darlin' but I see them being one of the taller spouses in the polycule. They're the second tallest compared to David with Sam being the third tallest. Every cuddle session with any of their partners is just Darlin' becoming the equivalent of a heavy weighted blanket ontop of them. Like, as soon as they lay ontop of you for snuggles you are NOT getting up any time soon. The only people that can lift them up is Sam and David.

Some headcanons of Charlie and Casper I wanted to write down. Enjoy!

I like to headcanon that Casper has pretty big hands, a little rough to the touch but Charlie likes how they feel in his own hands. Sometimes while cuddling, he'll absent mindedly trace his finger tips along the lines of their palms. It soothes him whenever he's had a long day.

Charlies beanie was originally Caspers beanie from awhile ago as teenagers before it was gifted to him. Casper mentioned how it looked better on him then them and he's worn it pretty regularly since. Still in good condition, surprisingly!

Charlie and Casper tried their first Chicago deep dish pizza together on Charlies 15the birthday. The concept of the cheese being under the sauce was mind boggling at first but he still really enjoyed it. It's one of Charlies favorite memories he looks back on fondly.

Charlie has broken a skateboard or two (or more) on accident when he was first trying to learn how to skate.

Charlie has made Casper laugh so hard that one time in the midst of drinking their drink, it came up outta their nose. Charlie has made it his personal mission to get em to laugh that hard again.

DD has a designated spot on the bed between the two.

Charlie gets sun burnt easily during the summers so Casper always has sunscreen on hand. One time Charlie insisted he didn't need it while out to the beach and his whole back got sun burnt.

They both have matching painted black nails. It was Caspers idea.

Casper sometimes needs some extra reassurance that Charlie loves them, it's not often they're like this but Charlie is more than willing to kiss away any doubts to reaffirm his love for them.

Charlie naturally has pretty sweaty hands and has to dry them frequently. Caspers hands get dried up easily so they carry around hand lotion with them just incase.

Charlie keeps a photo of him and Casper when they were teens being goofy in his wallet.

Casper whenever they need to run an errand, they always bring back one of Charlies favorite snacks.

Casper is really good at playing Super Mario Kaizo, Charlie gets nervous just looking at the levels they've played but it's still fun to watch them go at it.
