Some Wildly Specific Zennie Head Canons That Help Me Sleep At Night (when ideas pop in my head, I zoom my way over here to add them to keep my fellow zennies happy so check frequently for new ones!)
Another note… I am not a fanfic writer so these head canons are up for grabs if you want to put them in your story! It would super cool to see!
So on with it!:
Hyde always bites Jackie on the back of her neck during freaky time as a way to mark her as his
Jackie has a grasshopper tattoo that Hyde drew on her hip and every time Hyde goes down on her, he kisses the tattoo
Hyde reads them books (think of Orwell or Steinbeck books)
They both have panic attacks and nightmares due to the trauma their parents gave them and take care of each other when they happen. Hyde usually has nightmares: Jackie kisses all the scars he got from his mom and her boyfriends and tells him affirmations (like “you’re enough” or “it’s not your fault”). Jackie’s are usually sudden outbursts that are so bad where she throws up: Hyde notices her sudden mood change and to protect her “reputation”, he takes her somewhere private, cradles her, and kisses the back of her neck until she falls asleep
Their youngest (a daughter) is Hyde’s everything and has him wrapped around her finger and sobbed when she was born. She’s a mini Jackie, even with the different colored eyes. Hyde calls her, his “babydoll”
They actually met in elementary school when a kid pushed Jackie off the slide and hurt her. Hyde came up and punched the kid in the face but they agreed to never talk about it due to his “bad boy” reputation and her “popular girl” reputation
Hyde always waits for Jackie to fall asleep first and makes sure she’s asleep by kissing her forehead
Jackie is a pillow princess through and through and Hyde is okay with that because he likes to dominate her but makes fun of her because she will never go on top. He once bought her a crown to tease her about it
Jackie’s way of telling Hyde he loves her is through biting. She bites him A LOT
Jackie doesn’t know her limits when it comes to alcohol and weed so Hyde cuts her off
They often go on dates that help heal their inner children like the arcade or even just building Lego sets
Jackie always forces Hyde to slow dance with her in the rain
Hyde is a really good singer and guitar player but nobody knows except Jackie. He even sings her Tiny Dancer by Elton John and Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin
When fighting, Hyde lifts her chin up with his fingers to get important points across
They play chess to see who does the dishes because they both hate it
Jackie gets sick really easily and Hyde never leaves her side when she’s sick because she’s scared of throw up and it doesn’t phase him. Literally she can throw up all over him and he won’t care
Jackie actually loves his fro and does weekly curl treatment on in. Hyde pretended he hated it at first but actually loves it
When they first got back together after Sam’s departure, they went to Chicago for a fancy dinner in the river walk. They stumbled across a dog (think of a silver lab) that was very obviously malnourished and had signs of abuse and neglect. Jackie wanted it, Hyde didn’t because he’s afraid of dogs (something that only Jackie knows). Jackie basically gaslit him by saying, “but he’s like us though, he was abused and neglected. Please Puddin Pop?” with her signature pout. And obviously Hyde gave in. They named him Hippo. Now Hyde and Hippo are inseparable.
When Jackie was a kid, she choked on steak and had to go to the hospital. Hyde ALWAYS cuts her steak now and gets pissed when she doesn’t chew it enough
Hyde has a wall in the shop dedicated for her type of music called “my chick’s picks”. It attracts a lot of teenage girls
Jackie became one of those luxury designers (and of course a model cause she’s gorgeous). She started selling her clothes in Hyde’s shop… when a billionaire was stumbling through town and went into Hyde’s shop, Jackie got recognition and basically took off from there! The billionaire also fell in love with Hyde and his personality as well and gave him some kickstart money to start his own production company. Now, he has a successful record label but still owns the Point Place Grooves :)
Hyde insisted their wedding vows were done in private because he wrote the cutest and most sweetest things and didn’t want his friends to call him whipped
Believe it or not, Jackie is extremely smart and philosophical (obviously Hyde is too) so their pillow talk gets philosophical sometimes
Jackie and Hyde don’t celebrate Thanksgiving. Instead they go on trips because neither likes the holiday. Hyde because of the whole meaning behind it (duh!). Jackie because it reminds her of her broken family but she also takes into account the history of the holiday (which Hyde helped her realized ofc)
They skinny dip every time there’s an opportunity to do so
When Jackie was a kid, her mother always pointed out how her eyes are 2 different colors and how she was imperfect and alien like because of it. No one really noticed it but she’s always been insecure about it. Kelso never noticed it nor did any of the gang except Hyde in season 2 when Jackie was trying to get with him. He didn’t tell Jackie he noticed until they started their fling that summer when he pointed it out for her. When that happened, she broke down and told him all about what her mother has done to her and how she always needs to be perfect. Now every time they have an intimate moment together, he always makes sure to tell her how beautiful her eyes are
Hyde LOVES Jackie’s uniforms. The classic cheerleading uniform, the cheese maiden outfit, and even the smock she wears when helping with cars. They do role play in them…
When driving stick shift, he puts Jackie’s hand on the stick and his hand on top of hers
When Jackie was hoped up on drugs after the birth of their first child, Hyde convinced her to name their son Johnathan after John Bonham’s Led Zeppelin. Jackie got him back a few years later when she gave birth to their second son and named him Benjamin after Benny Andersson’s ABBA. Their last baby was a baby girl, they agreed on the name Clara because Jackie knew it meant “famous” and Hyde thought it was a cool name
When Jackie was pregnant with their daughter, Hyde learned how to do girly hairstyles on Jackie’s hair so he can do it on their daughter’s hair. Surprisingly, it was Hyde who came up with this idea because he fell in love with being a girl dad the second he found out that Jackie was pregnant with a girl
When fighting, if it looks like Jackie is about to cry, he will stop the fight right away and comfort her because he hates seeing her cry
They often go on roadtrips with no destination in mind when one of them is having a hard time
Jackie brought home two dogs from the shelter without Hyde’s knowing and named them Captain and Tennille. Hyde was mad at first but it didn’t last long when Hyde found Jackie sandwiched between Captain and Tennille (Hippo is there too dw he was just on the foot of the bed) in bed and thought it was the cutest thing ever
They usually have their own side conversations in the basement/gatherings and ignore the main conversation that’s going on
They have their own circle after sex as a form of aftercare
Jackie wears Hyde’s aviators during circles. Started off with Jackie stealing them off of Hyde’s face and now it’s a tradition. Hyde plops them on Jackie’s face every time without failure
Instead of actually saying aloud how Hyde feels about Jackie, he writes her letters and notes. When they were in high school, Hyde slipped notes in her locker. After high school, he puts notes on her bedside table or work desk
A repost of my head canons. I love these it makes me happy
