5 headcanons about wlw sarah

1. The first time she kisses a girl is when there’s already a guy with his lips (and tongue) at her throat. The girl’s lips are soft and taste like something sweet. Sarah presses against the girl, letting the guy crush her between them. For what started out as a simple score (a couple in an open relationship looking for a third for the weekend), Sarah realizes that she’s going to have much more fun than expected.

2. The women are ever so slightly harder to leave when morning comes (though of course it isn’t morning, really, when even the sun still has at least another hour to sleep). The warmth, the smell of strawberry or lavender or mango or coconut shampoo still lingering in her nose, the soft smoothness of skin that’s been well taken care of still making her fingertips tingle. But it’s part of the job, the score. She can feel guilty later - maybe.

3. There’s one she almost can’t bring herself to leave. Rich, certainly, but quick and clever and, above all, beautiful. Sunlight bends out of its way to glitter on her hair. Sarah stays so much longer than she should, knowing that with every passing hour, this woman tightens her hold. And yet Sarah wants, so badly, to be held.

4. Sarah burns every possible bridge with stolen money, a missing car, liquidated assets. It’s easier than saying goodbye. But she always gives her mark one last caress before vanishing into a tarnished memory.

5. Men are so much simpler, so much easier to leave behind, to tease and torment and torch. So she eases off the women - not because they’re soft, but because she is. And genuine attraction is so much harder to hide (and later bury).

Beth & Art as badass partners

1. They split on a chase without thinking. Beth is faster (all that running, all that training), but Art is bigger. Beth chases the suspect, occasionally giving Art directions via her phone, and when Art steps out of nowhere and the suspect crashes headlong into him, Beth is there to pounce on the fray with the cuffs and a caution already on her lips.

2. On Wednesdays, the local bakery has a special. Art is more of a bagel guy, but sometimes Beth will grab a donut instead just to give him a ribbing (Art no longer trusts her to do the breakfast runs, but she does know how he takes his coffee and how to schmooze the baristas into giving her a better deal).

3. Art is the cool head, Beth is the rookie who wants to get into everything like a Rottweiler puppy. Except when there’s a kid involved. She becomes a completely different person when talking to a child witness or the parents of a child victim.

4. When they enter the precinct (not quite side by side because, technically, Art outranks Beth by a few years and a hell of a lot of solves), there’s a synchronicity to their movements that warns every other detective in the homicide unit that these two are set for the long haul. It’s a vibe that some pairs give off, like soul mates with guns and badges. Not to mention that they’ve got the highest solve rate between them than any other team. And no one can figure out exactly what it is.

5. When Beth begins to deteriorate (whispers of “drugs” follow the two of them around without there being a mouth to speak it), that unbreakable synchronicity falters. Art no longer reaches for her - or he reaches, hesitates, then realizes that the moment has moved on without him - and their silent communication crumbles. (Even if the second their super is watching that facade springs immediately back to life, the edges are already worn away.)

cosima stoned af

1. As easily as smiles come, laughter comes easier. The kind of laughter that bubbles over like a pot of water left to boil. A slow gurgle that sizzles as it hits the heating element. Some might find it disturbing, though, because it’s Cosima, the majority find it quite endearing.

2. She seeks nearness. She’s all hands (not that she isn’t normally). Hands on shoulders, a brush across the cheek, maybe a lingering finger on a forearm. Just something to feel close to someone.

3. It doesn’t matter what she uses. Helium, weed, whatever. She’s even experimented with making her own once. Most science students have that phase, after all. How else are you expected to get through finals?

4. She tries to drag Sarah into it, to get Sarah to share a joint with her, anything. But Sarah just shakes her head and sits off to the side. It doesn’t take long before she makes a flimsy excuse to leave.

5. Felix, on the other hand, is something of a dealer. Their laughter can be heard ringing down the hall, echoing off the brick. The better the stuff, the louder they are. And it’s a good warning for the unprepared to steer clear.

Shaysima [romantic, sleep, cooking, random] headcanon

Romantic headcanon:

Shay has always been a sucker for the idea of a candlelit dinner - besides the fact that she prefers the soft, warm light of a candle to the harsh, cold light of most lightbulbs anyway - and when Cosima, after quite a few weeks, finally reveals that she can cook (with nothing short of a home-cooked candlelit dinner for two), Shay is reminded just how much of a sap she is.

Sleep headcanon:

Cosima sleeps on her back, which allows Shay to curl up close, use the cradle of Cosima’s shoulder as a pillow. And Cosima finds herself waking in the middle of the night (something she can no longer stop herself from doing) and smiling at whatever tangled position Shay has managed to squirm herself into.

Cooking headcanon:

Both can cook (though Cosima likes to pretend that she can’t because she likes Shay’s food more than her own). Shay is inspired by Asian cuisine, a lot of Indian and Pakistani foods that are flavorful and vegetarian. Of course, not all of the spices are easy to acquire, so sometimes she has to improvise. Cosima’s favorites are always those improvisations - though they can’t be replicated (because who uses a recipe anyway?)

Random headcanon:

Shay likes to run around the local high school track in the mornings well before school starts. She tries to convince Cosima to join her - so they can watch the sunrise over the hill behind the football field, so they can laugh together as they stagger home - but Cosima always declines. Because morning runs remind her of Beth.

Cosima (sleep headcanons) please

Cosima sleeps under a large down comforter at home, something she can burrow into, something that can swallow her. She also used to sleep any way but on her back: curled in a ball or spread-eagled or anything at all. But recently, it’s the only way she’s been able to rest. It feels to her almost like she’s already in a coffin, tucked in perfectly, still and pale and made-up (because she wouldn’t forgo her eyeliner, even in near-death). Perhaps that’s what makes sleep harder to find.

BC- the golden trio encounter a slytherin talking with hagrid. also could you do a patronus prompt or is it ooc?

(I’m going to try to avoid including main characters from the HP canon series in this AU mainly because my sole interest is in the OB characters, not HP characters.)

–

Beth is the first of the group to learn about patronuses, being one of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor’s favorite pupils and a regular proponent for office hours (as well as trips to the library’s restricted section). She hoards happy memories just for the sake of conjuring her patronus, which remains at her side whenever the darkness settles in. At least, that’s how she views it.

Until she begins passing the knowledge onto her friends.

Sarah’s patronus is a brilliant falcon that takes to soaring in circles above their heads.

Helena’s is a much smaller sparrow - fierce when necessary but more reserved than Sarah’s raptor.

Alison’s is a beaver, diligent and protective.

Cosima’s is a cat, twining around her ankles and going back and forth between getting into everyone’s business and casually observing.

Rachel’s (not that Rachel is a friend, but when they finally do cover patronuses in class, Beth can’t help taking note) is a jaguar - elegant and watchful, powerful claws and jaws flaunted despite a jaunty gait.

Krystal’s is a meerkat, a social creature that, if it could jabber, probably would be - constantly.

Tony’s, when he finally does manage to conjure one (seriously, does that boy even pay attention in class?), is a shark - a small one, with big teeth but a small jaw, unfit for snapping.

In class, Beth doesn’t let her patronus take on its animal form. She views it as something… private. Something that no one else has seen. Instead, she conjures it when she’s alone in the common room, when it’s late and she can’t find sleep. It curls up on the chair arm beside her, and although her hands would go right through it, she imagines that it’s warm.

She remembers when its fur was thick and glossy. But now her poor fox is mangy and, in patches, hairless.

Prompt me?

[lifeorbeth]

yesss. makes sense beth wants dada. she is pretty fucking kick ass too.

EXACTLY! I feel like, despite her Slytherin status, Beth has a bit of a hero-complex. It fits with Sarah's perception of her from 3.06 and from the way that Cosima and Alison talk about her in season 1.
