Eugene’s books from home and the ones he’s amassed since moving to the city have resulted in piles of volumes growing around their tiny apartment. So when Eugene goes home to visit his family for a long weekend, Snaf builds and stains shelves climbing to the ceiling on the wall next to their bed, and he sections the books onto them according to how they are piled.

He stares at it for a while and then goes out and buys some plants he thinks Eugene will like and mixes them in. He adds a couple candles and steps back to admire his own handy work.

The shelves are almost knocked back off the wall when Eugene gets home and is so excited that he shoves Snaf into them as he mauls him with kisses.

All those fancy manners and that big froufrou home couldn’t save Sledge from being one of the messiest eaters Snaf has ever seen.

Snaf only noticed it with a smirk during the war. The way Sledge would drink from his canteen and water would dribble from his mouth, down his chin, onto his uniform - normal enough when you’re dying of thirst. Or how he held his spoon in a way that, when Snaf secretly attempted to mimic it, half of the food wouldn’t stay on the utensil. It was all odd and adorable - when Snaf had the time to consider things odd or adorable.

However, today on laundry duty, as with every laundry duty since shacking up together, Snaf is staring down the latest victim of Sledge’s defective eating abilities: a shirt soiled not only with blobs of tomato sauce, but also nearly an entire glass of red wine.

Snaf soaks and scrubs the shirt, tries every trick his mama ever taught him to get stains out of clothes, and eventually gives up and hangs it up to dry with the thought that he can tie it around Sledge’s neck at dinner as a bib.

(THANK YOU @spoondragon for this headcanon!!!)

merriell throws a handful of snow at eugene and they start slinging snowballs at each other until merriell is screaming that he can’t feel his fingers and “god damnit sledge you win, knock it off,” and eugene packs the snow for a moment more before dropping the last of it, grabbing merriell’s hands, and blowing on his fingers until he can wiggle them again.

eugene convinces shelton to go camping with him. they take a train south and borrow the sledges’ car, and take off for a campground. then entire time they set up their campsite, shelton complains about how stupid it is to bring a car to go camping, that if they’re gonna do this they might as well hike off into the woods and be away from other people. but that night, when he wakes up hearing weird noises, he shakes eugene, tells him there’s a bear, and drags him into the back seat of the car to sleep.

sledge and snafu moving to new york city and eating too much pizza their first week there.

sledge loving the museums, libraries, and bakeries.

snafu exploring the parks, half looking for trouble and half trying to escape the mania of the city.

sledge keeping snafu’s spirit up by talking about how great it is to be here, all the stuff there is to do, but also quietly sitting by their one skinny window and thinking of home.

snafu loathing the cold, wistful for louisiana in the dead months of winter, but urging sledge to come out in the snow with him when he notices him moping too much.

merriell has too much energy for eugene. days off together almost never consist of sleeping in, and instead, typically begin with eugene waking up to big eyes and a shark-like grin hovering over him. not getting up is punished with tickling, and eugene just can’t.

eugene likes to read to shelton as he’s falling asleep. shelton likes to fall asleep listening to eugene read.

sledge won’t ever buy candy when snafu asks him to, says it’s unhealthy and that they didn’t survive the war so they could get diabetes. but any time snafu gets some for himself, sledge eats half the package.

[domesticsledgefu]

sledge comes home with weed but has no idea what to do with it, so snafu rolls it for them. sledge’s never smoked before and it’s been years for snafu, and they burn through the first joint, sledge grumbling about how he’s not feeling anything and snafu doubled over with giggles. but sledge is disappointed, so snafu rolls another. as they start in on it snafu gets hungry and goes to make a sandwich. sledge gives up on getting high and yells for snafu to make him one, too. he ends up eating both sandwiches when snafu gets so paranoid he forgets about his and has to hide under a blanket.
