I'm down in the nark hole, but I think I disagree with something, and it's that, between the two of them, the one who at one points has cold feet and runs away breaking the other's heart is Nick, not Lark.
Hear me out: yeah, Lark has his issues, this man needs therapy for yesterday. Yep, I'm aware. But he's still Henry's son, he's still an Oak, and Oaks care so much for others, even if he's the Oak that it's not vegan and thinks as violence as the solution, he loves his family so much, and he's a fighter. He's messed up, but he stays at his family's side. Hell, he stayed at Henry's side until code purple, even when he says he hates him. He's not the kind of person who gets cold feet, probably because when he makes a decision he is sure that is the correct one and thinks about it for 48h before taking it (I'm talking about the big decisions, otherwise he can be hot headed).
And then you have Nick Close / Foster / Freeman, who is an absent father, is divorced and is carrying his family's trauma about not talking and not being there for others. He's hot headed, and reckless, and he cares a lot, but like Glenn, even if he loves someone with all his heart, he takes bad decisions almost 85% of the time.
Nick is the one who appears in Lark's bunker in the middle of the night and disappears before the morning comes.
Then he starts to stay, and doesn't think about why, until one morning he wakes up and goes to the kitchen to get some breakfast and realizes that there's always cow milk in the freezer even if Lark drinks vegan milk, and he has a towell and a toothbrush in the bathroom, and he has spare clothes in one shell and that's when he panics because oh shit, he likes him, and probably runs away.
Lark is never going to be the first one to say I love you, but I think he's the first one to realize it, and he's not able to leave Nick (something that makes him feel guilty because he doesn't think he deserves it), so he just waits until Nick leaves him.
At the end of the day, both are more like their parents that they would like to, and let's be real, one family is used to leave the one's they love behind, and the other is used to have a broken heart.

Randomly some love for Jodie and his bizarre life
I will never bot find it funny the the ship name nark is pronounced narc
Those boys are like the token potheads of the kiddads
I did these doodles wile trying to figure out my ideas for the designs/dynamics between the kiddads! I wanted to have everyone in the driver’s seat, passenger’s seat, and back of the odyssey all at least once and use this to both explore their dynamic and also how i thought they’d wind up.
I did end up defining some parts of their designs, like I started giving Grant curlier hair and glasses as I went on, but this was mostly a personality thing and I’m still trying to decide if I want to flesh these out more <3 I’m still very new to the fandom, so LMK if you think my interpretations fit the characters or vice-versa!
Just imagining Sparrow looking at Nick when they're suggesting doing Code Purple again and saying, "If I can make peace with my father never forgiving me, I think I can handle if you don't."
Dungeons and daddies characters that I think wouldn’t care if I called them “girl”.
KEEP IN MIND THAT AT THE TIME OF POSTING THIS I HAVE NOT FINISHED S2 SO I MAY INCLUDE SOME STUFF THAT IS MAYBE CANONIZED LATER OR EVEN DISPROVED LATER IN THE SEASON. OTHER THINGS ARE ALSO JUST HEADCANONS SO FUCK OFF.
1. Glenn Close. You can’t tell me that as a bff or significant other of Glenn, if you ran up to him to spill the tea and were like “GIRL” or even “bitch guess what” he wouldn’t immediately get excited and be like “omg girl whaaaaat”
2. Henry Oak. We all known Henry tries his best to embrace all and all his hippie shit, however I believe this is because of a few things. Henry isn’t afraid to be in touch with that femininity, henry has canonically had at least 1 bf and has slept with at least 1 other male alongside his wife, you can’t tell me Barry Oak and probably quite a few other Oakvalians aren’t homophobic and transphobic and that they wouldn’t refer to him as terms trying to be derogatory but Henry takes them in stride and says fuck you.
3. Nicky. Whether we’re assessing Nicky pre or post Jodie, I don’t think it matters. I am a firm believer in transmasc Nicky and I think while he is a cutie lil trans boy I find it hard to believe he wouldn’t love the idea of being included when you are spillin the tea or being a silly and call him ‘girl’.
4. Scam Likely. Girl, Scam be scammin and Scam, while usually referred to as male, is a cousin of the library, a horrific eldrich being. Scam is Heckin shapeshifter brother. I think, like Nicky, he would just enjoy being included. Me and Scam be sippin tea every Wednesday at lunch and he calls me “bitch” “whore” and “babe”. I call him, or them rather, “babygirl”, “girl”, slut”, and “bestie”. They also love when you tell them they’re serving cunt
5. Taylor Swift. Now, I hate this. Taylor I believe would love it, HOWEVER, I take 1d20 psychic damage minimum when Taylor opens his mouth, so I wouldn’t hang out with him, let alone call him ‘girl’
6. Normal Swallows-Oak-Garcia. Now, with this, I think that it only lasts a little bit. I think that while Normal is trying to find who is he without Teeny the Teen, he questions a lot about himself, sexuality and gender identity at the very least(see: obsession with Hermie). With this I think he would absolutely try out some different pronouns and such, even tossing the idea of she/her or she/they etc around. Overall I think he sticks to he/him, but he definitely tried it and asked to be referred to as such while he was going through this period of finding himself and is OVERJOYED when you comply and treat him like the girlypop he is for as long as he is comfortable with before reverting.
Some honorable mentions are: Paeden, Yeet Bigly, and Mark Likely. However, they were not included for specific reasons.
Paeden was taken into consideration, however, two factors disqualified him. 1. He has the soul of Frank Wilson and I don’t think any of the omega daddies would let you get away with calling them “girl” and 2. Paeden is very proud of who he is, both as Paedon and Frank and would prefer you refer to him as what he sees, which is fair.
Yeet Bigly was taken into consideration, however, I believe Yeet would only allow his sister, Killa Demall to do it. They are very close and I think they gossip all day long and have a great time, but I think only Killa could get away with it. It’s special sister privilege.
And Mark Likely was taken into consideration, mainly because of the relation to Scam and The Library, eldrich beings and such. However, not all eldrich beings are girlies(see: dood) and I believe Mark Likely having taken on the form of my bf Dennis Anderson and also staying as identifying as he/him(as far as memory serves) as Mark Likely, I don’t find it likely that Mark would be a girly. That is not to say that he would be mad, just that he would ask you not to.
