#theyre so cute...

harry:

horrible relationship with his father

catholic raised (internalized homophobia)

fell desperately in love with coop the moment he met him

smokes (doesnt like to admit it)

secretly enjoys light and sweet coffee

reads a lot, especially before bed (has stress-enduced nightmares and reading is the only thing that calms him, adores tolkien)

adorer of cereal, especially chocolate cereal

rarely lets himself cry (really needs to)

has struggled with depression and anxiety disorders for his whole life, thought everyone did until hawk told him it was alarming (hawk literally knows everything about harry, including the feelings for cooper)

loved josie, just not in the way he thought he was supposed to

gay

cooper:

good parents, now both passed away

raised to love himself

comfortable relationship with his own bisexuality

immediately felt love for harry, although it was not as soul crushing as harry's was

also smokes (on occasion)

loves boston cream donuts

enjoys crossword puzzles and intelligence based games, as they let his mind focus without tiring it out

allows himself to cry, just often doesnt need to

very affectionate with most people, but is self conscious about it because most people get weirded out (withholds himself from touching harry after the feelings are comprehended)

autistic, with ptsd regarding windom earle, probably general anxiety disorder (minimal panic attacks, which he usually works through independently)

knows how to deal with his mental health problems, helps teach harry how to do so as well

the worst nightmares ever, the second he loves someone they show up dead in his dreams (has called harry on numerous occasions to make sure hes still alive)

he and albert are a broken up situationship, one that ended because they ultimately loved each other as friends

bisexual

relationship <3

when cooper wakes up from nightmares, harry reads to him until he falls asleep again

both are cuddly and unmoving sleepers, so they are very very hard to wake up

harry confessed first, cooper then initiated most of the milestones (first kiss, first i love you, etc.)

they think theyre so sneaky about their relationship (hawk picked up on the feelings immediately, lucy saw them kissing in the office and pretended she didnt, andy thought they were married the whole time)

cooper loves to just stare at harry to embarrass him and then act all oblivious

they work through all their issues with minimal conflict, unless one of them is so agitated and exhausted that they just yell (usually harry, dale is much more level headed), and even then they talk it through after

both have awful morning breath

both normally taste of coffee and smell of pine

share clothes probably before they were even dating

harry starts to open up and cry more as their relationship progresses, and dale is extremely patient and kind about it (because ofc he is)
