Overtime - Relationship Headcanons
Happy Valentineās Day! These are just small tid bits of what came into my mind if they were in a relationship. Also forgive me if I mess up a few words or the grammar doesnāt make sense, Iām always sleep deprived so Iām running on my last 30% of brain energy.
For Emery and Annette headcanons: Sorry if these headcanons seem like theyāre written for a particular group of people. I am a bi woman and this is my first time writing romance for a female character. Iāve read many romantic stories and headcanons of other female characters however Iāve only ever self inserted myself being in a relationship with them, making me more used to f/f relationships when it comes to headcanoning female characters. However, I am still trying in making everything gender neutral because I want to include everyone, advice is welcomed!
Also I apologize Josiahās are different from the others. His is mostly talking about dates because I already wrote many headcanons about him specifically.
Would be a chill person to be around if itās only you. He doesnāt interact with the others as much.
He wouldnāt go outside much but if you insisted he would go to a park with you or something and walk alongside you. Overall not much of a outside guy. Trying to imagine him hiking on a long trail would be hilarious, just constant heaving 20 minutes in. He wonāt leave until you leave though. He will not risk you being out of his sight and potentially having danger come to you.
Find something you guys can do together otherwise gaming is going to be the No. 1 spot in hanging out. Josiah would probably prefer to play fps/pvp games to de-stress and troll other players for fun. Would I see him playing animal crossing or other sim games? Yeah. He gives no damn about what games he plays tbh, as long as heās with you heās good. If he sees you play animal crossing heāll ask you for your friend code. Heāll even constantly visit your island to bug you while youāre doing chores or decorating. His island would look cluttered and chaotic however it would still have his charm added into it. Somehow manages to keep a 5 star rating despite all the crap he has on his beaches.
If you like going out while on dates he complies no complaints. Taking you out to eat is leaned onto more. Not to a high end restaurant or anything (once in awhile if you do want to go to those restaurants) but more of a humble and nice place. You want to try out some of his favorite dishes? Hell yeah, heāll take you out to his favored Vietnamese restaurant.
Josiah can cook basic meals and instant foods. Eggs, spam over seasoned rice, chicken n rice, etc. Has never tried to cook anything other than easy meals because he didnāt have a reason to. Doesnāt mean heāll make a bad cook though, if you ask him maybe he could make something more extreme. Though he can cook the most youāll see this man eat are instant foods so for the love of god, start hanging his gaming console over his head and make him eat healthier.
Baking with him! So cute, youād be doing most of the work though. Itās not because he is incompetent or whatever, he just likes to have fun with you! Teasing you left and right while you batter some chocolate, sticking his finger in the said chocolate and then wiping it over your face, maybe heāll kiss youā¦ or maybe heāll start a chocolate marking war with you. He likes having fun with you the most as long as youāre okay with it! Only with you, of course.
During work he usually does his own thing and will only stick around you for the most part. If you need him heās there.
Him comforting you after getting berated by another employee would be him holding you in some way. Heās not the best with advice or words but heās there with you. Donāt ask about the rips on his shirt though.
After all, heās used to it.
Cons for this man: Uhhh thereās a lot already. But besides the obvious of why, Iāll say that his codependency rises up the chart when you both start dating. State your boundaries with him and he will try to respect them. As long as he is not in a horrible state of mind, he is more likely to listen to you.
Last thoughts: Quality time man! I said this before and Iāll say it over and over again. Him being around you makes him happier than stabbing those who bad mouthed you earlier! His devotion to you is āinspiringā.
Polite man. Heās very eloquent so itās easy to be in a conversation with him. However he does come as stand-offish. He means well.
Already a canon hockey player. He will teach you how to play hockey on your off days if you ask! I see him a bit of a perfectionist so teaching you how to play properly is more on the table for him rather than just standing and joking around. If you donāt want to though itās fine! When he plays hockey during his free time you are more than welcomed to watch him and cheer for him! Even if itās not official he appreciates you and always basks in your praises.
Speaking of praises, keep praising him. I swear to god keep praising him. Especially for his skills in hockey. He basks in your sea of praises and eats every single one of them. Becomes flustered for the rest of the day.
Imagine him covering his face after you praise him.
An active person. Since his job stresses him out he spends his time outside just de-stressing in nature. So on your dates you both would be out and about doing something. Doesnāt have to be hiking or whatever. Damian wonāt mind spending the day at home with you as long as itās not all the time.
Bring a camera on your dates! He would love to look at the photos you took of your dates and just smile at em. Would put them in a album.
Since youāre the only exception in the workplace, he would assist you with whatever work that needs to be done. Heāll scold or decline anyone else who asks (Gavin) and continue on with his work. However with youā¦ heād make the exception. If he sees you being all sickly, tired, exhausted, etc, heāll quickly go over to your cubicle, push you slightly away from the computer, finish your work in the span of 3 seconds, carry you, take you home, and put you in bed with the proper necessities laid out next to you. All of this while heās lightly scolding you, comforting you, and cursing the damn workplace like itās a spell.
When you both are in the office he tends to be more professional however if you need him to comfort you etc he will! He would either quickly finish his work or set it aside and just open his arms. He knows how much being heard can help someone (given his background, Iām assuming his parents always shoved their beliefs and stuff on him and he never had the chance to do the things he wanted) so he wholeheartedly listens to you vent. If you want silence he can do that as well!
Heās patient, so if you have a hard time talking about certain things, doing certain things, etc, he understands. Heāll wait until youāre ready.
Heās the kind of partner to push you outside of your comfort zone, so be prepared!
Since he knows you and Josiah are good friends he refrains from talking bad about him. Other than complaining to you about his cans crowding his space, he holds his tongue. Even though he loves you, he wants to keep you away from Josiah. The look of that man has definitely encouraged Damian to keep you away from him at all costs.
One con I would have to say about him is his vulnerability. I can see him bottling up his emotions and closing them off. Heās used to staying professional and saying nothing too harsh to keep the peace, so please let him know itās okay to feel and express his more negative emotions!
Last thoughts: Words of affirmation would be his love language! He loves you and in his own time he would say very sweet things to you! He would 100% be more happier if you give him the same energy too. Overall very sweet man.
A really cool person to be around. A relaxing aura and a overall positive personality, how can you hate the guy?
Would ask to do a reading for you (if youāre not familiar, tarot reading specifically). He knows a lot more than he lets on. The moment he saw you heās like ātheyāre my soulmate frā.
Something you both could do is just vibe out at home or outside and do relaxing activities. Heās not as active as Damien however he does like to be outside and do his own thing. I imagine him refocusing himself in nature to tune himself spiritually. Heād introduce you to his hobby if you know zero to little about it! He would also appreciate it if you were open minded as he got called ācrazyā or ādelusionalā for being interested in these things. He is really passionate about this so if you were 100% interested in what he does he would SWOON.
If you are the same as him he would be over the moon. He wouldnāt show too much on front but inside heās just so damn happy, having to meet his soulmate and finding out theyāre into the same stuff he is into?? Mans would collapse.
If you have your reservations about spiritually and magick he understands though. Heāll do his own thing and youāll do yours.
Cue in him gifting you his crystals. He thought about you for one second and said āHm hm they said that they were getting anxious recently, Iāll give them an amethyst!ā Ooh! And when you guys get even closer to the point of potential life commitment, heāll give you a Kunzite, a crystal of love and devotion!
At work you and him already work together on the same floor so during lunch time he would just go up to your cubicle and have the both of you head somewhere. Conversations between you guys would flow smoothly and either consist of crazy things or level headed topics. He makes time for you, mostly because he is usually waiting for something to update or process through. Oddly enough, he gets his work done pretty quickly.
Larp with him and the both of you can be the IT floor menaces teasing Damien every so often with āHm hm!ā.
He smiles often but when he genuinely smiles? It will be the prettiest sight ever laid onto mere eyes.
If you need him to use his powers to read into people and get information about them he will do so. However he tends to leave some information ambiguous and sometimes even gives you lies of omissions. Could it be for fun or your safety?
Very intuitive! He can catch on to your feelings pretty quickly! If youāre upset the first thing heāll do is try to soothe you and make you less upset. Heāll try to make joke or tell you a interesting story to take your mind off things. 50/50 on advice-talking. May or may not make things a bit worse.
Knows everything about everyone. Not even Josiah would be safe if Gavin looked into him more.
One con about him, Iād say that he would have the tendency to avoid problems by staying away from them even though they need to be intervened with. If you want to confront him head on the best thing to do is to never wait for the āmomentā. It will come no matter if you are prepared for it or not.
Last thoughts: Gift giving is the way this man goes! Gavin loves seeing your face brighten up when he presents you with his crystals. He goes out of his way to memorize what you like and donāt like, so when you see all of the things you wanted for the past few months on your cubicle donāt act surprised when you see Gavin occasionally looking over his shoulder and at you. Heās waiting for that kiss on the cheek.
She is a hard worker and fighter. Her determination to get through tough times inspires you.
Emery likes to get things done and quick. She prioritizes duty and prefers to have things orderly. On dates she would want to plan a well organized schedule packed with things to do whether the date is inside or outside. It mostly goes well on almost every date.
I am imagining a coffee date in a humble establishment. It would have the right amount of people in there and the right amount of quality put in those drinks. After that you both would head somewhere bustling. Maybe a mall where you could ask her which clothes you should wear to the upcoming work party? Or even the city square to visit shops until daylight runs out.
Probably the most versatile to dates. Sheās okay with home dates and outside dates as long as theyāre not dangerous. When you both are on outside dates she packs necessities, towels, first aid, etc just in case! With inside dates like at her house, she makes sure she has necessary things in order to make you comfortable! Before you head to her house, she wants to cook up something just in case you havenāt had your fill. Not necessary you said? Okay, how about some snacks?
Polished inside and out of her house. Compliment her choice of decoration! She works hard to make this house comfortable to live in. She has good decorum compared to the others.
When you both get closer she might offer to cook lunches for the both of you if she sees you arenāt doing to well. She will be more than happy to accept.
If you do the same for her, she will be very appreciative! Albeit a little uncomfortable because she isnāt used to others going out of their way for her. Nonetheless she is very happy that you think of her.
She used to be lonely at work until you finally talked to her, she was reserved at first but never pushed you away, now she has a partner she can happily call hers! If she sees you being scolded/harassed by the people at work, she will forcefully grab your hand and take you away from them, only giving them a dirty glare as a goodbye. After that, she would set you down near a break room and prepare a warm drink for you. If you wanted to vent she will listen and add her input in when needed. If you were a bit more somber she would just embrace you and offer her warmth to comfort you.
She would literally fight for you. Sheās not a total professional fighter however she knows some techniques and moves on the side. Her reflexes are crazy too!
She would last the longest against Josiah. Should she ever catch Josiah with a knife in his hand and you on the ground, all hell breaks loose.
One con for Emery is her insecurities of being needed. She wants to be of some use, to have something to do besides stand around and watch everyone ignore her very being. When she finally dates you, her need to be useful springs up. Remind her itās okay to not always do things for you to show you her love. Talk and work through ways for her to express herself more. You can also compromise with her to do equal acts of service together!
Last thoughts: Acts of service is her love language! She smiles to herself imagining how appreciative youāll be in the afternoon when she shows you the next lunchbox, how youāll trade pieces of meat and vegetables with her, and how youāll gush over her thoughtfulness and consideration.
Peppy and hopeful. Being a new worker has brought in a lot of pressure from her peers, however it seems she takes comfort in you.
Her ideas of date are a bit romanticized but all in good faith. Picnics, amusement parks, movie theaters, etc, itās all simple but fun! She probably doesnāt consider most home dates as dates tbh. If itās not a homemade dinner or a movie night, sheād consider it just a regular hangout between the both of you.
If you take her out to dinner, sheāll be a blushing mess! What is she going to wear? What if her hair tangles up in the middle of it? Even worse a stomach ache!
She will become anxious and more anxious up until she sees you come to pick her up. She immediately relaxes and tries to become more resistant to fear on the way there. On dates out to restaurants, sheāll always offer to pay full meal and if you wonāt let her, 50/50! She wonāt take no for an answer. She wants to be a good partner and that she is!
She does her best to look good for you, physically and status wise. She never wants to see you look at her with disgust or even worse, pity. She believes she might not be the best of all but she has you and she wants to build herself up to become the best version of herself. Let her know that she is enough for you and that you love her the way she is (or else *clocks gun*).
When sheās comfortable she tends to linger around you with a ghost of a touch. You make her feel secure and protected, so she attaches herself onto you when she starts feeling nervous.
At work, when you get called over by another co worker near the entrance sheāll watch with a bit of longing. Once you start showing signs of discomfort though sheāll pick up on it. In a split moment of decision making sheāll come up to you and tell you about a emergency on the upper floor slightly stumbling her words in the process. Sheāll grab your arm and drag you to the elevator area, not sparing a single glance to the person who was talking to you just now. She would be very anxious afterwords but sheās more focused on you who was just put in a uncomfortable situation. Reassure all is well thanks to her. She would be very satisfied with herself for being able to protect you in her own way as you did with her.
Since she is still very new there, a lot of employees tend to ignore her, scold her, or even harass her. She takes comfort in you after the ordeals. Though not required, she would feel a sense of relief if you were a fighter (as in a very resistant and feral if provoked) because she would know that if anything beyond that happened to her, you would immediately come to her defense.
She sees you as an inspiration, the way you carry yourself around the office, the way you donāt take shit from anyone else, and the fact that you are quick to be so easy going with the other workers. She has admired you from afar and developed a crush long before you even dated.
You both have become accustomed to going home together and that brings her peace. However she noted that sometimes when you went back to your office to retrieve something you had forgotten, a certain management worker would always linger in the area until you came back.
Cons I have for herā¦ it would be her insecurities about herself as a person. As she is obviously meek and young, she has a tendency to want to rely on others and look up to them. Sheās a follower and knows so, even though she really doesnāt want to be. The change wonāt come if all she does is look and not do, so you would have to be up front with her and give her some confidence!
Last thoughts: A lover of physical touch! She wants to be secure and comforted by someone she trusts, leading all but for you to just cuddle with her and relax in bliss. Even at work with a single kiss or some loving hand holding she would immediately become motivated just to see you at the end of the day.
My goodness this took a very long time. Apologies if some headcanons are different from what you imagined the characters to be! I had half a brain when writing these and I just wanted to finish asap. Thanks for reading!
