Edward Ranch AU headcanons
TTTE Fin's Human AU megapost
hi i'm back here's Edward's stuff :D
(If you don't know- the Ranch AU is my TTTE human au, where the engines are humans and live on Sodor's North Western Ranch. Read the megapost for details)
His full name is Edward Azure-Sharpstewert, but obvious he's not gonna call himself that mouthful so Edward it is. Don't call him Eddie unless you're a good friend, he doesn't want to talk about that whole incident.
He's such a dad. Like, when it's someone's birthday he's the one that left a care package in that person's mailbox or room or wherever he knows they'll probably see it.
He's here legally, unlike Thomas. He did actually sign contracts and stuff.
He's one of the oldest on the ranch, but he's still as limber as the day he first came to this part of the country. With a few more creaks then usual, of course, but that's only natural.
He has his own route- Edward's Line, it's called. To the surprise of many people, he's a actually a foreman, and runs the ranch's Brendan Docks area.
He also has a bit of a vendetta against the first Sir Topham Hatt. He's good friends with the next guy though.
He usualy tries to keep things orderly, but every now and then indulges Toby in one of the guy's antics. He finds it kinda funny, too.
He's also not sure how but he's the one guy who can say something and people actually listen??? He's accepted that Sir Topham Hatt II has esentially deemed him "the guy to ask if I'm not around". He doesn't mind, but he's still la bit confused about how that happened actually.
He's been a mentor to most of the current ranch hands.
He also has a private tea collection. Every so often, he gets together with Skarloey and Rheneas up the mountain, and they share a cup and discuss the latest news.
But he's not just some old geezer, he's a king at Monopoly. And it's scary how good he is at chess and scrabble. Duck's lost 32-0, and Edward's still going.
He spends a lot of time just sitting and watching the world move around him, when he can afford a day off. He likes seeing how things change over time, and for a while had a small ant farm.
He knows every inch of the island, or so he says. Whether this is true or not has yet to be proven.
He's well-respected and for good reason. He's done some truly wild stuff for a guy who looks like he'll fall over in the wind. From the list Thomas and Percy compiled, he's singlehandedly brought back a full wagon of guests through a rainstorm with nothing but him, his horse, and his braker; he's run all the way up the hill to deliver Mrs. Kindly her groceries during a very bad week of bad weather; downed five can of Sprite in one go once; and once tosed an apple behind his back and it landed perfectly on a target. Though they figured out that one was just Edward knowing where the target was so there's still a debate on whether to count ti or not. And those are the first four on the list, the thing's a little long.
He likes blue- it's a calming color and one he's comfortable wearing.
that's all i have right now because I'm tired i'll finish this post properly later. IDK where the Edward piccrews went :/
