Woke up with Hearson brainworms today </3

Funny thing is, I've always liked the ship, but I didn't think that much about them- until it randomly "clicked" to me overnight, apparently 🫠 and now I feel like we're kind of...sleeping on them, lol. ( also, something about the idea of poet x writer tickles me a lot, in a way✨️)

On a sadder note though, I realised some time ago that neither of those two has an explicit death scene in the book. Like, they both just happen to be...gone, at some point </3

Anyway, I lowkey had to make a moodboard for them, soo. Hope you guys like it? ^^'

Top Pearson Ships?

HOORAY!!!!!!

there are only like. four that i seriously entertain in my mind palace but all of them are so fun

hearson. i just think they’re neat!!! they’re both writers, they’re both perceived as slightly nicer than they were in canon and both of them are a bit morbid about the walk. pearson with his pennies and harkness making guesses on who will go next and talking about marketability, additionally harkness is a talker and pearson is up front enough in his communication that it wouldn’t be a problem for them. and they both wear glasses !!!

pearssler. @/mexicancat-girl wrote a reallyyyyy good fic about them and it clicked for me!!! they would be so sweet. they’d be so endeared by each other and i like to think they talked at least once before pearson died. and i think as two disabled black members of the walk there’s some solidarity there that i like to chew on in relation to worldbuilding.(pearson’s asthmatic and i think in the script at least tressler’s implied to be mute or deaf) i return to that fic Often.

pearlson!!! i think they would have a lot of fun torturing ray garraty together ♥️ they’d just be so funny!!! they’d have so much fun!!! they both studied the rule book A Lot!!!! and there’s the dynamic of olson really liking pearson but being disturbed by how detached he allows himself to be on the walk by the usage of his pennies to keep count. so he’s wrestling with a lot of feelings!!! i have a genderbent drabble i’m planning that will hopefully be on time for rarepair week!!!!

pearbraham!!! because in september there was this really good fan artist and i had no choice they were so fun. their book banter is great. “you wouldn’t be doubting my grandfather’s word, would you?” “heaven forbid.” they’re so fun!!!!!

hearson headcanons also... put me on...

THIS IS HAPPENING!!!!!

Richard calls him Jamie I do not make the rules I just benefit from them

They are horrible gossips. Pearson is from Tennessee and Harkness is iffy with boundaries they talk about people constantly

I think Pearson is honestly pretty straightforward, especially if he’s irritated. He’s not one for dancing around an issue he has with something when he’s with friends or people he’s comfortable with, so he’s less concerned about whether things are “acceptable” to say and I think that’s specifically why he and harkness work. Richard likes to talk, sometimes to the detriment of his speaking partner and I think Pearson could either match that or say something about it really quickly into the relationship. Either way it works for them

They proofread each other’s work. Pearson likes to write poetry, and Harkness writes articles for his classes/job. They dedicate time to just switching drafts to read over the other’s.

They’re so giggly when talking to each other. If you didn’t know better, it would seem like they were making fun of you if you try to have a conversation with the two of them. They laugh so much it could seem like you’re missing an inside joke. You’re not. They’re just like that.

James has so many stories I think. Old people are really endeared to him so he’s just been able to collect them and they’re very entertaining. Richard lovesss them.

Richard cannot sing. James kind of can if he doesn’t do too much. He can carry a tune.

Specifically nurse Pearson or nursing student Pearson but they stay up together. Harkness is an insomniac To Me and Pearson takes his education seriously so he has to pull all-night study sessions. They stay up together in silence and the only noise in the room is the clicking of computer keys or the turning of pages. They finally crash on a shared couch after Pearson’s exam and when Harkness’ body finally allows him to rest. This happens at least once a month.

Richard’s the type who sends pictures of random things during his day that he thinks James would like. James likes animals so this works out. He gets a blurry picture of a pigeon at least once a day

I think Harkness has a junk journal and if Pearson finds something he deems interesting enough he’ll bring it back for him to add

Pearson is superstitious!!! He’s constantly course correcting the two of them when they walk together, so they don’t split the pole, or step on cracks. Richard puts in effort to pay a little more attention to his surroundings when he’s with him because of it. Everybody’s grateful about that part.

When Pearson first started crushing he watched all of Harkness’ letterboxd top 4 movies so they had more to talk about.

this is it for now!! i must come back with more at a later date!!! thank you for asking twin!!!
