fiddauthormay ideas for the pecking
ford and fidds having their own relationship before meeting emma-may, and ford is so scared that emma-may is his replacement. the two of them show him that that's definitely not the case
ford being a later addition to the relationship, so fidds introduces his girlfriend to his boyfriend and leaves the room to let them bond for a second while he goes to the bathroom (unsure if they'll get along) only to come back to them in a fierce debate about whether rangers are a bad class or not
study sessions where they're all laying on the floor of ford and fidds tiny dorm so their legs and bodies are all tangles while they separately read their textbooks and take notes, propping their stuff on each other and laying on each other for comfy cushions (and consequently elbowing each other and pushing the others away when they get in the way of Important Work)
poking fun at each other for their majors despite all being stem majors (think the line in the martian where someone says "it's just botany, it's not like it's real science.")
ford feeling left out because he's not one for PDA and prefers not to be part of the public face of the relationship (for safety reasons and more) so his partners show him he is definitely as much a part of this relationship as both of them are
if they're all cis-- emma-may is pregnant! but uh. they're not sure who the father is.
^ (or some other fun combination of compatible reproductive systems :P)
what if they all celebrate different winter holidays and get to introduce each other to their respective traditions :)
meeting the parents (probably emma or fidds' parents. something tells me ford isn't going home for the holidays anyways)
someone coming to emma-may As A Woman to tell her she thinks fidds is cheating on her and emma's just like. whaaaat wow thank you for telling me. comes home to her boyfriends kissing and she's like you'll never believe what just happened
the ddmd campaigns go crazy
they're menaces in the same course. professors start refusing to let them sit next to each other in classes
who sleeps in the middle of the cuddle pile?
