Headcanon that Abby and Connor install baby gates before Nikki’s even born The baby gates aren’t there for any baby  They’re there for Sid and Nancy, so they can’t get into, say, the bedroom Sid and Nancy chew through them

[i-was-bored-so-this-happened]

One of my favourite headcanons is that when the new ARC was being built, when Lester agreed to come back, he made up a list of names and had them carved into a wall. A memorial wall, for employees missing or killed in action, civilians lost through anomalies or to creatures

[i-was-bored-so-this-happened]

Headcanon that Connor and Emily zone out a lot. Like really zone out. Like they over-pour their tea and burn their hand with the boiling water. Like to the point where they’re chopping vegetables and don’t realise they’ve cut their finger until someone else yells about it

1 word headcannons: food

Send me a word and I’ll make a headcanon for each character (+OCs) based on it

Food

Canon Characters

Nick - Pasta is the go to for him to cook. Spag bol, always. Has a habit of not looking at what he’s eating is he’s working, so he tends to just shove whatever he grabs into his mouth and then spit it out when he realises it’s an ammonite. His tea is always cold by the time he gets round to drinking it

Stephen - Sick of Nick’s spag bol. Good cook, but likes bacon sandwiches best. Drinks incredibly hot tea (in his Spice Girls mug)

Danny - Also loves bacon sandwiches. Really knows what to do with spices. Will eat anything you put in front of him

Becker - He bakes. Banana muffins are a specialty. Good at baking. Burns dinners. Would live off prawn crackers if given half a chance. Will take someone else’s cup of coffee and start drinking it

Sarah - Big believer in comfort food. Has at least one tub of ice cream in the break room freezer at all times. Usually has biscuits in her bag. Teaches the more competent cooks of the team family recipes

Claudia - Experiments a lot, it usually turns out pretty well. Likes eating out

Jenny - Experiments a lot, it usually turns out pretty well. Always seems to know exactly what to order at a restaurant within thirty seconds

Lester - Him and his wife cook together a lot, and they like to go out to eat

Connor - Surprisingly good. Loves making curries. Has several of Sarah and Jenny’s recipes in a notebook. Also has a habit of shoving whatever his hand finds into his mouth, which is bad when he does so much stuff with electricity

Abby - She’s okay. Can do eggs about a million way. Never wants to eat fish again after the Cretaceous

Jess - Likes to try and do complicated stuff. Sometimes it works, sometimes she sets the fire alarm off

Matt - Likes food. Likes food a lot. Will steal bits of food off other people’s plates

Emily - Learning how to bake, and she loves it. Still very nervous when ordering at a restaurant. Has snacks in her bag at all times

OCs

Alex Hart - Banana and chocolate chip loaf is a speciality. Takes other people’s food all the time. She goes through phases of not eating and then eating a bit too much. Drinks hot chocolate all the time, more than tea. Likes how coffee smells, but not the taste

Morgan Becker - That person that opens stuff and never finishes it, and never closes it properly. Opens orange juice and milk cartons and forgets to put the lid back on. Drinks green tea

Mark Page - Very good at rice, not good at much else. Has a juicebox in his bag most days

Next-Gen

Nikki Temple - Good at eggs, like her mum. Her dad tried to teach her one of Sarah’s recipes. Disaster

Stanley Foster - His gran is an excellent baker, and she’s teaching him

James Hart - Do not leave him alone when he’s trying to cook. Just don’t

Taylor Craig - Instant noodles and that’s it

Maddie Miller - Is often James’ supervisor when he’s trying to cook

@givebeckeratank brought up my ‘Jess and Connor rig the ARC so when people walk through doors music plays’ headcanon and I’ve just thought, what if they play Sarah Smiles for Becker?

[i-was-bored-so-this-happened]

Super cool headcannons for becker?

Super Cool Headcanons

My Generation by The Who (it reminds him of Danny)She Loves You by The Beatles (Connor put it on there)

At his desk. Connor has photographic evidence of him cuddling a paperweight

Just Dance, but no one knows how he does it, because as far as they’re concerned, he’s crap

“I don’t use those stupid things, there’s no point to them” but has a habit of just randomly sending Emily or Abby a line of water gun emojis

When Becker’s sleepy, he’s a mess that can’t form full sentences. He will cuddle, and he will not let go. Tries to be growly, and fails

Coffee

Bakes (a speciality is banana and chocolate chip loaf) Also eats a shit-ton of junk food

He was essentially raised to be a soldier

Cold winter nights where the ground crunches under his feet

He tries. It’s okay. Funnily enough, his singing voice is at it’s best when he’s sick

Triangular patterns in the margins that just repeat and repeat and repeat all the way down the page

[i-was-bored-so-this-happened]

Stephen Hart died in March, in 2x07. If we assume there are several weeks to a month or so between the anomalies, which is very likely considering certain lines from characters, this meant that the Season Two team had Christmas together.

Can I get some becker headcannons please?

Sure you can! He’s a favourite of mine, ask/request for him as much as you likeHere are some previous Becker-specific headcanon postsOne about him and Sarah (not shippy)One about him being bi

He bakes

He’s the one that teaches Emily to drive

Also lends Emily clothes sometimes

Is okay at singing. But don’t bring that up

Hates thunder and lightning. Kinda scared of it, actually. Definitely don’t bring that up.

When he’s sleepy he’s cuddly and can’t form full sentences

Absolutely loopy on meds in hospital. Will give you ridiculous names and cling to you like a baby koala. Completely chaotic, will try and pull out whatever tubes or needles are in him

Strangely child-like when drunk

I could go on about the three above for hours on end

Out of work, literally only wears flannel shirts, hoodies and that one leather jacket

Literally a human electric blanket. Always warm, always

Gets bored really quickly in hospital and discharges himself 90% of the time

When confronted with a child under the age of three, he will hide in the kitchen. At least, that’s the case until Nikki Temple is born

Thought he never wanted his own kids until he actually gets them

Seriously, I could go on about Becker and kids for days

Becker can speak German

Winks at people all the time (that’s canon, but I thought I should remind you)

When he has a boy/girlfriend, at work he has two modes. Full On Flirt Aiming To Seduce or Stone Wall With No Reactions To Anything

In certain fics I write, he’s a little dyslexic
