yes i did!! i had the privilage to see him TWICE this year actually (a lot of people like myself bought tix to the first tour bc we werent sure he was gonna make it to where we were, but lo and behold he swung around for the second part of the tour!!)
i got to see him on night one of his brooklyn show with my family (sort of…i was closer to the front than the rest of them bc i wanted to wait outside for two hours like a crazy person) and it was definitely the best concert ive been to by a country mile!! (with the possible exception of the tyler the creator show i went to and the impulsive bbno$ show i went to with my sister lol)
psychologist!zemo is just laszlo without the parental issues and the sexy beard
okay but why are you absolutely right
just imagine like. god. i think its just bc i LOVE psychology and wanted to be a psychologist for the longest time (still kinda do), but hes so SMART and SNARKY but also he understands people and their emotions so well, hes so suited to that kind of role.
in some alternate universe zemo is your therapist and he just takes your hand and says “it’s okay to cry draga” when you’re having a break through moment in a session PLEASE-
How does Hudson destress after a busy/stressful day? (You mentioned wine and my brain kinda spiraled to that question NANNSNS)
LOL UR GOOD honestly i still need to figure out how i destress after a busy day BUT im sure hudson has his own little way with things :)
this actually got a little angtsy and surprsingly smutty lmao but i hope you enjoy!
when the wings retract (unwinding with hudson hcs) ⛅️
despite this man being a literal angel incarnate (unknown to him as of yet), hudson can have some pretty rough days. the man is a nurse after all, let alone at a children's hospital of all places, so sometimes he unfortunately has to see and witness some pretty gruesome and heavy stuff in the ER. he's long enough into his career to not be naive to those types of situations, but of course, it doesn't stop the pain completely.
if he's having a pretty rough time (specifically during/post-work), the first thing he usually does is takes a moment to remind himself that there was no more he could do. he did all he could, the best he could, and that was that. he tries to keep himself out of his own head, at least until he gets off his shift for the day/night/whenever he gets off.
instead of music for his commute back, he throws on a podcast - again, something to keep him out of his head - and listens to the semi-absent chatter while he texts some of his friends (maybe even a familiar friendly mortician if it's not too late in his time zone 👀). if his usual suspect best friends reply (more on those guys later) he'd tell them about his day a little, and depending on how bad the day was, may or may not accept an invitation to go out to get his mind off things and make him feel better.
at the mention of wine, despite making dandelion wine and all that jazz, hudson is purely a social drinker! if he does drink when out with his friends to destress, it's usually a cider or a light beer, maybe a bubbly white wine if they're out at a nicer place or when the mood strikes. he likes light, fruity drinks, but nothing too overpowering. one intense college party and too many tiki drinks and screwdrivers can do that to you.
of course though, if he has an s/o, he's going to shoot them a text too. he probably wouldn't tell you right away that things were off, asking you about their day and typical check in things like that. he'd smile at his phone like a goober seeing you typing or sending him funny pictures from the day, and ofc be honest when you start asking him the same thing back. he'd probably ask if you'd want to come over and chill at his place too, get some take out and just cuddle without a care in the world.
one of the best ways you can pick up on if hudson is feeling okay is his breathing - he tends to have a lot more deep sighs and exhales when he's down, along with the occasional frustrated huff depending on the circumstance. usually when he gets home after a bad day, he turns the lights down to a reasonable level, then collapses on the couch of his bed, just letting his breath leave while he takes in everything around him, including his thoughts. depending on how bad it was at the hospital, he might shed a few tears, but he'll be okay! he just needs some solid alone time like the rest of us would.
once you show up, he makes sure to get cleaned up and decent before answering the door, pulling you into a sweet, warm hug and kissing your head, holding you like you were the most precious thing in the whole world. he only lets you go briefly to let you wander to the couch or the bed, then goes right back to having his arms around you, holding you close and just taking you in for all you are, and how much he loves and cares about you.
you guys would order some food (probably pad thai since that's one of his favs), and either eat it on his bed/couch or move to his little kitchen bar. hed talk more about his day, and he might be a little worried about bumming you out with the details, especially given his line of work, but you assure him he's fine to speak freely about his worries and feelings...but he'd also be eager to just shove some noodles and tofu in his mouth while he watches you talk, the both of you either having some pretty solid deep dialogue, or just joking it out to try and lighten the mood.
once you both kind of settle down for the evening, where hudson is back in that contemplative mood, just holding you in his arms and gently stroking your arms or your face, he'd just press a light kiss to your cheek. he obviously asks if you're okay with him kissing you, no matter how long you've been together, and if you're happy to let him do so, you'd probably smooch it up for a good long while :3c
and honestly? there could be a small chance it gets a little steamy. it could be one of those nights where hudson get wrapped up in his thoughts, thinking about how grateful he is for his life and how somehow his path led him to you, he just might want to show you how much you mean to him in a much more...physical sense (of course, only if you're feeling up to it)
every kiss is so soft, so gentle, and absolutely overflowing with love. he kisses your cheek, your nose, your lips, your neck...pretty soon you lose track of where your skin ends and his lips begin, with how much he ravishes you with his rather literal undying love.
he undresses you like a treasure wrapped in delicate silk, gently undressing you like a gift hand delivered from the man upstairs himself. his hands are slightly calloused but still soft and gentle, groping you gently and holding you close, making love to you softly, slowly, to show you just how much he adores you.
he might be a tiny bit prickly if you ask to help him out, but if you phrase it as something that you want, he's more than happy to oblige. he's focused more on what you're feeling, making you feel like you're floating in bliss, and he kind of gets a secondary high from it in a roundabout way
of course, whether its after sex or just in general, he's gonna want to just veg out to some tv and cuddle for a while most likely, maybe with some hot tea (he prefers earl grey or raspberry with a touch of sweetner, usually honey). hudson's favorite comfort show is probably arrested development, since it's just so absurdly funny to him, along with shows like parks and rec or the good place (oh the irony)
i know i talked about the whole breathing thing before, but one the signs to notice if it's really bad for hudson is if he calls his mom. yes this man is a momma's boy through and through, don't get me wrong, but if he's calling her after a bad day at work, then it was really, really bad. in that case he needs all the support and rest he can get, and usually shortly after plans a weekend trip upstate to visit his mom and get away from the big city. he likes to go up there to get away since his mom usually always needs some type of help around the house, whether it's cleaning things up, baking things, or tending to her garden - and of course, hudson is more than happy to help :))
along with the comforts of home, he may find solace in attending mass if sunday is around the corner, or even just a saying a small prayer at home before a meal or bed (and if you're there as his s/o but aren't particularly religious/christian, he won't pressure you to do come along or do anything you don't want to).
it makes him feel better when he can directly do some good in someone's life when he's feeling blue, so maybe he'd also hit the local places he volunteers at depending on the circumstances. besides, there's always good out there to balance the bad - that's just how the universe works. :) it may take some time for him to come around after a bad funk, but he always has faith that things will be better. the sun always comes out tomorrow, doesn't it?
Just saying that with Maxi being a Virgo and Hudson being a Pisces, when you look at them purely from an astrological sense they are made to be great friends and I think that’s fun and fresh
BAHAHAAH YES, i literally showed this ask to rae (maxi's creator) when i got it originally and just forgot to answer it sjkhgkfd but YES
honestly we're kind of still figuring out their relationship details, but maxi and hudson are pretty good friends! the two of those dudes are peas in a pod (and possibly in a more literal sense with an idea i told rae about but that's not canon) LMAO
I just found out about the existence of Hudson and he seems so careful and thoughtful not me being a hoe but does he have moments going feral for his s/o? 👀🥵
well anon, welcome to the angelverse! im so glad you like hudson so far and hopefully you'll like his friends to come >:) but to answer your q, surprisingly yes!!
hudson actually considers himself demisexual - part of that is just due to how he was raised/his religion, part of it is how his genuine attraction to people functions, and another part is just him being surprisingly easy to fluster.
i wouldn't say he'd go absolutely feral persay at least in his human form - his angel form might be another story, but we'll get to that, but he acts kind of more like those scenes in cartoons where the heart like leaps out of their chest? if that makes sense?
as an example - say you and him were going for a nice out with some of his friends to a nice little cocktail bar, and you decided to put on a cute little cocktail dress with tights, heels, the whole shebang. he'd definitely have a moment when he answers the door and just freezes like a deer in headlights, his breath sputtering like a bad car engine, and he just lets out a weak "y-you look great! :,D"
hudson is a very restrained man - not by his religion or sexuality or anything like that mind you, he's just very, almost painfully polite. you could literally come home from dinner and give him a full-on strip tease, and this man would sit as still as a statue flustered out of his mind and not lay a hand on you out of politeness. eventually though if you help him ease out of his near-virginal awkwardness, the best way to do so would be to guide his hands for him. it helps click in his brain that "oh! it's okay to touch you!", and then he can mostly take it from there. once he gets into a groove, he definitely starts to go a little more traditionally feral so to speak.
he'd pick you up and grab you, whispering little "sorry"s in between bites and kisses on the way to bed (or the couch, or the wall, or the kitchen counter, whatever works for you), and probably start kind of letting his mouth run loose (in more ways than one) - first it starts out as sweet, with him talking about your outfit and how beautiful he thinks you are...but then maybe it starts to dip into slightly unholy territory. the best way to describe it is that he'd want to be all over you all at once, because you're so beautiful, so pretty, and he's so grateful to have you in his life, that he just can't contain all that big ol lovin in his heart anymore and needs to express it. and of course, maybe it also would be a sort of confessional moment for him - not as in like confessing his love, more like confessing about the time he stared at your boobs for too long, or how he thought about how nice your legs are while riding the subway earlier that day.
if you guys were farther into your relationship, he'd definitely be a bit more open as far as engaging sex himself/first. there's definitely be more nights where he just sees you and hes like "MINE" (even though he's not particularly possessive) and makes sweet sweet love to you till the sun rises :))
I am in love with Hudson! Ah, okay so I have to ask (and I’m going personal with this) how would he react to having a mostly pagan (omniest) s/o that occasionally goes to church/participates in church events with him. I find myself doing this out of respect for my family and friends and I was originally raised as a Roman Catholic, my belief system just changed.
oh my gosh, first of all, thank you so much!! im so glad more people are loving on hudson - it feels so good to see all the reception about him since ive been in SUCH a writing rut lately, so i really appreciate it ;w; hudson loves you too bestie :D
that being said, hudson would ABSOLUTELY love a pagan/omniest s/o! he'd obviously love his s/o no matter what religious beliefs they have (he loves having engaging conversations about it all with no pressure to 'convert' or anything), but i think the utmost important thing would be your comfort. obviously he's aware that there are some aspects of his religion that can make people uncomfortable (i would hope it's obvious hudson isn't one of those assholes that preaches hellfire and horrible things to anyone remotely different than him), and while he loves it when his s/o wants to participate in that important aspect of his life, he wants you to be totally aware that you do NOT have to unless you truly want to. (this also gives me a moment to touch on the fact that even hudson doesn't go to mass every sunday LOL, this man is an on-call nurse most of the time, but he does try to go when he can.)
but it also goes both ways!! hudson would be super curious about pagan stuff and pagan traditions, especially bc he's aware that most christian traditions are stolen based off of pagan holidays and celebrations. he'd definitely try his best to keep track of all the holidays and text you the day of like "happy yule honeybun!! let me know if you want to go attend a bonfire or something! :D", this man is well researched and educated when it comes to anything his s/o cares about.
