Trent Crimm, my love

At some point my obsessions reach a critical mass and require their own side blog. It's Ted Lasso's time.

me after the s4 pics release:

FIRST LOOK: ted lasso season 4 | source | “ted returns to richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women’s football team. throughout the course of the season, ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.”

[flopstat]

beard: Ted is my best friend, he is my savior, he is my rock. I will define my life by servicing him as his assistant and I will drop my entire life in the span of three days just because he asked me to. My biggest regret that still haunts me years and years later is that I betrayed him, and I have been punishing myself ever since. He’s an agent of good, I follow him like he is Jesus and I am just a simple worshiper. I love Ted. I have ruined relationships because of my devotion to Ted, my own girlfriend turned wife hates Ted with a passion due to her jealousy. I am constantly having to pick between my girlfriend and ted.

ted: this is my best buddy beardo :{D

Beard, Ted, and Trent

I swear, Beard's first scene in a hypothetical S4 better be him signing divorce papers. Assuming they even keep the wedding as canon.

Beard: Is that a hickey I see? Ted, embarrassed and panicking: What? No, it’s just a mosquito bite. Trent, walking in: Morning. Beard: The mosquito can talk?!

someone PLEASE make a gifset of all the things Jamie and Cockburn are doing in the background of locker room scenes because I just remembered they did a jump high-five in the finale that cracked me up. This is so extra.

other things I’ve noticed:

them either trying to double high-five and failing miserably or straight up playing pattycake

constantly knocking each other on the shoulder or pointing at each other

and one absolutely brilliant moment where Cockburn goes in for a fist bump and Jamie meets him with a high-five and then they both turn away from each other in shame. genuinely almost cried laughing when I noticed that in the background.

Phil and Dejon must have been having a blast that whole season.

Jump highfive! Pattycake! Missed Fist Bump/HighFive! OMG! YES!

Jamie being so happy/silly/safe/nurtured in a himbo environment!

did you guys know that this website is for fun

Ok but.... Hear me out.

Y'all have watched Our Flag Means Death, right? Where a clueless overly-earnest anxious father who likes to rhyme runs away from his failing marriage to a smart and confident woman to do something completely unadvisable a world away and in doing so takes a group of rugged violent men and teaches them to be soft and to respect each other and the world around them (and has a panic attack when he meets his ex wife again and found she moved on and might be getting remarried)? And his love interest is a man with long salt and pepper hair who is well-versed in the ugly sides of the life the other man chose blindly, and who has become disillusioned by the whole thing and therefore completely compromises himself for the possible chance at a life with the first man since he was the first person who showed him how truly powerful kindness could be? Also the grey haired man starts off the series appearing aloof and stern and slowly gets more silly and authentic because of his exposure to the earnest man, and comes around to believe in the kind way of doing things despite himself, and spends the final season (barring renewal) following the earnest man around and trying to earn his place back with this crew who, rightfully, spurned him for his callousness.

Anyways. Wild coincidence, huh?

Away fixtures are always rough, but away fixtures when Trent has to keep tabs on both children are even worse. Sure, if it was a big match Trent knows he could call in a couple favors and join the Greyhounds on the coach. It is, however, harder to argue that a game against Nottingham Forest is anywhere near important. Not when they’re hovering two spots above relegation and the only thing ‘important’ about the result is Richmond improving their goal differential as they chase another title.

No, he’ll save favors for the next time they play United thank you very much.

Having to wrangle a twelve year old and a seven year old should come with hazard pay.

Trent tried to stay up. He really did. But wearing one of Ted’s sweatshirts and feeling like his husband has his arms wrapped around him with how he swims in the garment — Trent’s asleep in a matter of moments.

He has no idea what time it is when he feels the mattress shifts. Feels Ted, dressed in a faded Kansas City tee and sweats all but drapes himself over Trent like an extra blanket. Ted’s head rests on his chest, tucked beneath his chin like he belongs there. (He does.)

“Go back to sleep, darlin’.”

“Meant to stay up—”

“The kiddos found the biscuits didn’t they.”

“That they did. Remind me yell at you tomorrow.”

“But we won! Shut out. Four to zero.”

“Nil.”

“But we scored.”

“Four-nil.” Trent runs a thumb along Ted’s cheek. “You’ve coached how many seasons now—”

“Listen, I know the offside rule now. That counts more than knowing nils and ties.”

“Draws.” Trent is smiling, drifting off to sleep. Happy having Ted back in his arms.

“Love you too.”

Some of you ship tedbecca, tedtrent, and/or roykeeleyjamie and was extremely disappointed that none of them set sail in the finale but none of you will ever understand the pain of my otp not happening,

“Colin, you better have a damn good reason for showing up at 7 am.”

“Why, you got someone here?”

“Of course not.”

Meanwhile, the not-someone upstairs…

Not saying this would have been a better ending to S3 — but I’m not not saying it.
