⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Bow

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀headcanons for my favorite archer!

· Bow wasn't the name his dad gave to him at birth. (This can be because he is trans or because he change it just because)

· He was 16 at the beginning of the series and 19 at the end

· Contrary to popular belief, he has a lot of sisters. Is the main reason why he's baby and drinks respect women juice all day

· He doesn't like bananas. Why? He just... doesn't. Idk

· His first kiss was with a boy (because bi king) and Glimmer was so jealous because she had never kiss anyone.

· He had on and off crushes with Glimmer since they were like 14. He is just really good at hiding his love-feelings

· He really liked Angella. He felt like she was the mom he never had (not that he wanted one, but yk)

· he writes songs. That's it.

· He wears crop tops because one of his sisters started to send him a lot of those (because she also likes using them) so he tried them and LOVED THEM

· He wants many babies because 1) he loves babies and 2) he has a big family so he's used to the big parties and all that

· He makes his own arrows from scratch! He's really good with wood work but he never brings it up

· He eventually gets a piercing for Glimmer, as we know, but he also gets a tattoo to match with Glimmer. They don't tell anyone because Glimmer would have to accept her wings are just tattoos she got without permission.

· He sleeps with A LOT of pillows and stuffed animals. He just likes to feel the bed crowed.

· This in the future leads to him letting his kids sleep with him almost every night.

· Everyone knows Bow before he starts dating officially Glimmer. People recognized him as her best friend before, but then they recognize him from his speech during Horde Prime's attack.

· Micah and him? Best friends. After his first child, each month he takes a day for Micah and his dad's and they just have a dad's day out.

Okay but Bow deserves an actual apology from the best friend squad

He carries all the friendship in season 4

My poor baby singing "we are best friends, we are, we are"? Hurt me so much

Adora and Glimmer did him so wrong

Also I'm talking about season 4

The rebellion would support the Black Lives Matter movement and so should you!

All lives can't matter until Black ones do! She ra is all about inclusion, and black folks must be included in all conversation. The rebellion wouldn't support racism and you shouldn't either. Please, use your voice. ✊🏿

Catra and Bow talk

He let out a sigh, seeing Melog come again to the kitchen, curling by his side. He half smiled, turning around to see Catra standing there. Almost every time Melog was around, Catra was too. It had been odd when Melog spent a little while with them when Catra wasn’t there at all.

“Arrow boy.” she said, as a greeting that Bow had already got used to.

“Hey, want a cookie?” Bow asked, opening a chair to invite her to sit with him.

“That looks disgusting.” she said, sitting by him, but taking the cookie with Adora’s face “Actually, this doesn’t look that bad.”

“Thanks, I made it” he said in a funny tone “It would’ve been more fun with you here.”

Catra looked at him, smiling softly. She liked the feeling of being included. Bow always made sure she was, even in things the Best Friend Squad used to do without her. Bow understood the feeling of being left out, and when Adora became part of the rebellion he made sure she felt included, and he obviously did it too when Catra eventually became the fourth member of the squad.

“I was with Scorpia and Entrapta...I’m...making real amends.” she said in a low voice, as if she was a little ashamed of saying that outloud. “I didn’t think today was a bad day for me to...be here.”

“Hey! Don’t say that. I think Adora is not upset with you, she just needs to remember that she doesn’t always have to be the hero. On the other hand...Glimmer might need some time.”

Catra surrounded herself with her tail, “Just say it, she will always hate me. I don’t blame her.” she mumbled.

Bow raised both eyebrows “No. You don’t pity yourself, you made a bad decision and you are always trying to make up for it.”

“Would you forgive me if I killed your parents?” she was getting angry, and Melog showed that, but she wouldn’t hurt Bow. He wasn’t afraid of her anymore, anyways.

“You didn’t kill Angella, Catra. You opened a portal, and she sacrificed herself to save us all. What you did led to what happened to her, but it wasn’t your intention.”

“If I wasn’t such an idiot Adora wouldn’t feel like a failure and Glimmer would have her mother here, don’t you understand!? I know what I did, and it doesn’t matter how many times I say I’m sorry, I’m never going to undo my mistakes!” Catra cried, surprising herself because again she was screaming at friends. Again, she wasn’t controlling her rage, her emotions. “No one is going to actually forgive me because I don’t deserve it.”

“Get out.” Glimmer's voice startled both Bow and Catra, while Melog just hid behind the other feline.

Catra looked directly at her; Glimmer’s eyes were teary and red from crying, but she couldn’t read her expression. Bow walked towards her, but she just shook her head when seeing Catra was about to get out of there.

“Not you. Bow.” she said, surprising, again, both of them.

“Glimmer…”

“Please” was the only thing she said, and he just decided that it was better if he went out than if he tried to convince her otherwise. Catra could take care of herself, and if she couldn't, he was close enough to come back.

“Make sure you give your all, and if you ever fall know that I'm right here”

I don't see many people talking about my sunshine babies and their friendship. I know, with Glimmer they are the golden three (and then Catran joins) but this two dorks? They love their angry girlfriends and are the purest of them all. Just, look at them 🥺💓

Okay but can we all agree that Bow is Best Boy? 🥺🏹

Everytime I remember that "Forgive Me Friend" by Smith and Thell is in Glimmer's playlist my heart breaks a little

btw I'm talking about the playlist Noelle made for them

breaks my heart for glimbow season 4 everytime

The hardest part of writing angst scenes with Glimmer is deciding if I want Catra or Bow with her

Just in case, I mean I don't know if I should make a friendship scene with Catra or a lovey dovey scene with Bow hdksks

HUGS!

Hugs hugs hUGs hugs hugS

Some headcanons for my favorite girls to celebrate me hitting 300+ followers💖

Can we talk about how Bow and Glimmer are both crying because Catra is hurt? (or as many think, dead)

“The war is over, and we are beginning.”

— GLIMBOW 💖

I will just leave this comparison, say I love them, and go. 🥺 also thanks for the 230 followers. ♡

“Fighting is supposed to be dangerous!”

“My mother raised me to be brave. My friends taught me to be kind. And I'm stubborn, I get that from you. I will never stop fighting!”
