Still up to sprinkle some fernest propaganda ✨
Fernest from Cult of the lamb
Ernest and Larry: start dating while teens-late twenties, mostly out of convenience because they didn’t see any other option. puppy love. as Ernest slowly joined the firestarters, he began to blame Larry for firefighter activities. Larry becomes an easy punching bag, and the relationship slowly becomes Incredibly Toxic. Larry still trusts him despite all instincts. explains the boiling scene and lack of fear in his eyes. guess this would also be where they began to explore BDSM, most likely in not-so-healthy headspaces. Ernest was a Not Good man.
Ernest and Bertrand: in his later twenties/early thirties, possibly overlapping with Beatrice and Bertrand’s marriage. “special friends,” always on the cusp of a relationship. Ernest desperately fell for Bertrand and naively hoped it would work out. Bertrand, obviously, would never let it. Bertrand always thought it was a fun time and that they were on the same page. When Ernest found out about the engagement he was devestated. Helped confirm his beliefs that firefighters are manipulative, but it dampered his feelings of insurgence. He’s tired.
Ernest and Fernald: late 30s/now (early 40s) started as a relationship out of convenience, very off and on given how little time they spend with each other. Fernald is almost 10 years younger than Ernest, and Ernest sees a lot of himself in the man. Over time they grew infatuated. Started incredibly unhealthy as a way to work out their unhappy feelings about the firestarters, but slowly developed into a place of love and support they need. See each other even less regularly than Dewey and Kit seeing as though the hotel is “majority firefighter.” they’re in love but won’t admit it.
au where the denouements start an inn on some remote coast and Fernald and Ernest are happy and also Fiona is there as is Carmelita, ernest’s adopted brat daughter who has slowly been learning how to act like a reasonable being.

Behold my doomed yaoi
I think one of the big reasons I love Ernest and Fernald is because Fernald is Ernest about five years younger. He has the fiery drive Ernest had, and working out his abuse and ptsd under VFD while also starting to realize the firestarters aren’t truly a better alternative. Fernald has a dead end crush on someone who will never see him as a romantic option. He’s Ernest, but this time with hooks.
I have a very specific scene in my head where ernest and Fernald sit on the roof of the hotel denouement at 3am, leaning against the back of a pool shack where no one can see them, and looking at the stars. Fernald knows all the stars and constellations and meanings from his time on the Winnipeg, and Ernest listens to him ramble. Eventually Ernest pulls out a cigarette (a nasty habit frank tells him to quit) and offers one to Fernald. Fernald turns him down and notices that’s ernest’s official firestarting lighter, metal and heavy, and asks why he’s using it for something so mundane. Ernest simply replies “cigarettes are all this things good for” and lights up his smoke. He takes a heavy draw and leans his head on fernald’s shoulder. They continue to watch the stars.
you cowards let Fernald and Ernest date
