☾ ⋆ ☮ ♤ (sleep, sex, living quarters, and cooking?) heacanons. heronstairs
So basically you’re looking for the most domestic AU ever?
Ok, let’s go
Victorian Era Domestic Heronstairs Headcanons
- ☮ Will and Jem (magically cured by magic), get a suite of rooms big enough to share as bachelors (actually 90% sure that this is where Infernal War 2 will start except without the magical cure).
- ☮ Will fills walls with books to the point that Jem worries he’s going to bankrupt himself on novels.
- ☮Jem is neat. Will is not. Jem tends toward passive aggression when he’s cranky. Will tends toward dramatic outbursts when he’s cranky. As long as they’re not both cranky at the same time, life is very good.
- ♤They hire themselves a housekeeper because neither of them can toast bread because they are warriors and gentlemen. She’s kind of Mrs. Hudson like and mothers the hell out of two young men who haven’t had a mother figure since they were kids. (They adore her and would KILL you if you hurt her).
- ☾They give up on sleeping in separate beds before they cross any romantic lines. The yin fen made it almost impossible for Jem to dream and once he’s off it, years of nightmares catch up to him. It’s deeply disturbing to him since he didn’t even realize how much he’d gotten used to not dreaming. Having Will nearby evens out the nightmares and keeps him from panicking when he wakes.
- ⋆ They’re committed and exclusive long before either of them realize the potential for a physical relationship. They’re a bit like a married couple by the time they’ve been living together for a year but it simply doesn’t occur to either of them to push past that line. Jem starts it because Jem is the more physical in his expressions of affection and always has been.
- ⋆The physical relationship starts so so very slow. Hugs that last just a fraction too long and then longer the next time. Will using Jem as a footrest. Jem falling asleep with his head in Will’s lap. The abandonment of the second bedroom. Little things like fixing Will fixing Jem’s collar and letting his hand rest against his neck. A hand on his bare chest while drawing a rune.
- ⋆ When the physical relationship does cross the line, it happens fast. They go from tentative to all in with the blink of an eye. They’re both affectionate people and their cleaning lady only comes in the mid afternoons to prep meals and sweep. Unless there is a hunt or other Clave business, they have no reason not to spend all their time wrapped up in each other.
- ⋆ Will thinks he’s adventurous but really it is Jem who pushes him into new territory. Neither of them say no very often when offered sex so they often get thoroughly distracted from everything else by it. Like leaving a dinner half eaten to go do other things with their mouths because Will made an off colour joke and Jem raised his eyebrow in just that way.
