Some Garfield Lynns Headcanons to make you cry
Some absolutely horrible Garfield Lynn’s headcanons that will make you cry
He leaves a light on in his hallway when he sleeps so when his nightmares wake him up it isn't pitch black
He carries around a lighter given to him by a stranger years ago. It’s a very simple, solid red colored lighter. He keeps refilling the fluid when it runs out. When his anxiety acts up and he’s stressed, he takes it out and flicks it on and off.
Ever since the accident, he’s struggled with PTSD brought on by occasional bright lights or sudden explosions. During his pyromania episodes, it doesn’t bother him quite as much.
Ever since his trip after the accident, he’s been desperately afraid of hospitals. He refuses to go, no matter how close he is to dying. Drury has had to physically force him to several times.
Ever since half of his house burned down due to unattended candles, Eli got him candles that automatically extinguished when the wicks burn too low. He keeps the first one she gave him on his nightstand.
He looked for his sister once. After he learned she moved to metropolis, he abandoned his search assuming she would hate him anyways.
He’s always had a weird soft spot for the youngest robin. When he died, he left a single lit candle on a roof batman frequented. When Jason came back to life and incidentally learned about it, he decided to leave the pyro alone for the most part.
After Drury abandoned him for the first time, he actually thought about giving up his suit and seeking actual help for his pyromania. The introduction to Firebug and the competition, however, made him return to his ways.
Burn cream is sent to his apartment weekly. He isn’t entirely sure who sends it, but has a suspicion it’s Harvey Dent who has similar problems.
He doesn’t care much about physical appearances, but catch him on the wrong day when he’s already stressing and he’ll end up worrying about his burns. He usually wears long sleeve shirts when going out to hide them. The ones on his face, he covers with concealer and foundation. After Edward made fun of him for it one night at the Iceberg lounge (the only time they ever spoke), Harley gave him some tips and some samples that she had used before.
He has a necklace he never wears, but sits wrapped around the candle Eli gave him on his nightstand of the bird symbol she wore before she disappeared.
Despite Drury leaving him, everytime he gets a moth in his house he gingerly puts it back outside
The first time he saw fireflies he cried
