Don't you have headcanons and junk for Rico from home on the range?
Rico (Home On The Range) headcanons
Okay, Rico deserves so much more content! He had such an incredible voice and design. But let’s get into this hopefully good bout of headcanons!
* Rico has such a hard time opening up to you and accepting that he is allowed to be open and show people his true feelings. Rico really does want to open up to you, honest! He just… struggles with it! So much of your relationship with Rico was teaching him how to be vulnerable. He thanks you internally every day.
* Rico isn’t the best man or partner. He knows this, he’s dangerous, has connections with worse men, and does work for worse men. Sometimes he will take a mission that haunts him, you can see it in his eyes when he gets back. He dreams of those missions and it makes him kick in scream in his sleep. He’s very hard to calm down on days like that and you should avoid him
* Rico giving loving language is gift gifting and acts of service. He somehow always knows what gifts you have been wanting, what you don’t know is he notes all the little things about you, and he notices when you’re with him. If you look at a shirt for a second too long he will remember. He is also very good at acts of service. He just loves the look on your face when you see that he’s done something so small for you but it makes you so happy. Plus it’s one of the love languages that keeps him in his comfort zone.
* I think Rico loves all forms of love. He wished so long to have someone who loves him truly, so any little bit you give him after breaking his shell is eaten up, he loves being loved after he learns what it’s like. You were cuddling him one night and began petting his hair, that was the day where he discovered his love for head scratches. You can’t escape the monster you created… have fun.
* On a sadder note, if you were to ever break up with him for reasons other than his work or your safety he’d just stop believing in love. How could he be the happiest man in the world and be so in love with you and you just… leave? His heart wouldn’t be able to handle it and he’d relegate himself to one-night stands only.
* Rico wants to build a life with you, maybe get some farmland, and have a kid or two. He doesn’t care just as long as he spends the rest of his life in your arms. The arms that hold him warm during winter, the person who retaught having feelings to him, the person who he loves more than anything. He’s happy as long as he spends his life with you.
* I headcanon Rico just loves dogs, if you have a dog it’s not your best friend anymore it's his. Rico goes on runs all the time with your little fur baby and he loves playing with them. You will find the dog with Rico on the couch all the time napping, cuddling, or playing. It’s adorable.
* If you have a cat for some reason it just loves him. He doesn’t understand it but you think it’s so cute. The cat follows him all around the home. Rico claims he hates the cat, you’d never tell Rico but you’ve caught him cuddling with the kitty and slipping it extra treats all the time.
* All in all, once you break past his hard shell he’s so sweet and cute. He loves so fiercely and he’s so sweet.
Private's eyes went wide as Skipper explained with his hands before moving put of the way so Private could see.
"Cheesy Dibbles!" Private squealed looking over the bagged food. Y/n smiled and watched as Skipper spun a gold coin on his finger before giving it to Private.
"Happy ding-dong birthday, ya little scamp!" Skipper grinned watching at the smaller kid took the coin in his hand's with the biggest grin on his face.
"Thank you!" Private goes around pecking every one on the cheek staring with Skipper, followed by Kowalski, finally giving one to Rico.
Only for the Rico to engulf Private in a brone crushing hug for ten seconds before then released him from lack of oxygen.
Y/n laughed as Private staggered across the floor, Skipper and Kowalski watchung in amusement. Y/n failed to notice the pink tint on Rico's face as she laughed.
"You mess with the bull, you're gonna get the horns, Private!" Skipper folded his hands behind his back. "Now hit that machine and get your present!"
Private tosses the coin into the coin slot, presses a button and watched as the bag if cheesy Dibbles falls into the lower slot. Private bends down onto his knees and digs around trying to reach the bag.
"We just broke in the most secure cheesy Dibbles facility in North America. Do you know what that means?" Skipper asked turning to look at the cheesy dibble's.
Y/n listen and watched as Private reached around for the bag. Y/n smiled, walked over and helped Private look for the bag of good's.
"We're wanted criminals who will be on the lam for the rest of their lives, always feeling the hot breath of Johnny Law on our necks?" Kowalski asked adjusting his galsses. Skipper shook his head.
"No. It means, as elite units go, we're the elitist of the elite. Top shelf in the bureau. The penultimates. Plus one" They continued to talk failing to notice their surroundings.
As Private and Y/n struggle to get the bag out of the vending machine, A octopus tentacle come's out and pull's Y/n and Private in through a bigger opening in the back of the machine.
Once Rico noticed the absence of Y/n he turned around and saw nothing but a bag of cheesy dibbles. He slapped Skipper on the arm who came back to reality from his day dream's.
"Where'd Y/n and Private go?" They walk over closer to the vending machine. Inspecting the cheesy dibbles bag before Kowalski noticed Y/n and Private squished against the glass.
"Oh, there they are"
"Oh, You two. How did you get in there?" Y/n and Private teied speaking but it was muffled by the glass.
"Well, this outrageous. Even for Y/n" Skipper concluded earning a glare from the H/c haired girl.
Rico stood next to glass looking over Y/n as the other two tried to thinking of a plan to get them out of there. Y/n smiled as Rico spoke to her through sign language. Y/n nodding and carefully signing back to him.
Suddenly, an octopus tentacle comes out of the vending machine slot, grabs Rico and takes him into the machine with Y/n and Private. Rico is now pressed against the glass next to Y/n.
"Sir, the machine is alive!" Skipper and Kowalski get into battle stances. The octopus tentacle again comes out of vending machine and takes Kowalski.
"Well, I don't think I like your attitude, vending machine. Or your prices!" Skipper yelled angrily at the machine. "Release them!"
Skipper screamed as the tentacle comes out of the machine for thr last time and take's Skipper into the cramped space with the other's.
The octopus emerges from the bottom of the machine, struggling to stand up from all the weight before scaring a security guard and running through the wall. He run's up the cheesy dibble boxes and goes throught the roof of the facility.
Y/n screamed and clung to Rico as the octopus went across the roof top's into the night.
Rico stood frozen not knowing what to do with this type of closeness, but awkwardly held onto Y/n. His brother's snickering in the background.

Bertholdt can be rather shy and recluse when it comes to initiating kisses with you. He’s never really been in a relationship or kissed anyone before, so he hesitates for a moment. Usually he stares at you for a little while beforehand just to make sure that it’s okay that he kisses you. However he really, really enjoys kissing you. Once he gets over that initial fear of actually kissing you, he can really leave you breathless. Likes giving you long, loving kisses that make you feel like you’re floating.
Rico always kisses you in private. She doesn’t like seeming unprofessional so she won’t kiss you in the presence of others. Because of this, she usually goes the whole day without kissing you. Which builds up inside her until she snaps. Her kisses are desperate. Not only from not kissing you, but from the stress of her job. She’s lost a lot of close people to her that she fears that you’ll leave too. So her kisses are hungry and needing. She needs to feel you close. Also hates pulling away so she makes them last for as long as you’ll let her. Likes cupping your face just to feel your skin while she kisses you.
Summary: Y/n, one of the cadets is getting bullied by other cadets in her year. When Rico is walking by on patrol, she sees this happening and scolds the cadets harshly before reassuring and comforting Y/n.

A/N: i’m really excited for this as a trans person myself so i hope you enjoy ! also its a bit short im sorry i suck at bullying and comforting 💔
You knew it would happen eventually. You had expected it. You just didn’t think it would happen between you and your comrades. The people that were supposed to help you if you were on the verge of getting eaten by a titan. But if they couldn’t even handle you being “different” then how could they save your life on the battlefield? Were you really that different that they most likely wouldn’t save you because of it? So many thoughts ran through your head as you stood on watch inside Wall Maria in a small town.
Being a cadet, you weren’t able to do many things yet except sit tight and hope that the day wouldn’t come that titans decided to break through the wall and destroy humanity at their very will. But you didn’t mind. It was like everything else, you had to progress and continue going up the steps to success and hope you don’t fall on your way up. You’ve had to do it many times, so wanting to become a part of the military wasn’t going to be anything new for you.
But god was it hell still.
“Hey, Y/n!” You heard someone say your name and you turned your head, seeing one of your comrades walking up to you with two other guys behind him.
You could feel your body tense up upon seeing the trio of boys walking to you, knowing that whatever was going to happen wasn’t going to be a very fun ride for you. “Hi!” You forced a smile onto your face.
The boys stopped in front of you and the one in the middle began to talk again, “Hey so look, my buddy here needs some help with what he’s doing right now which is moving heavy stuff like guns and ammunition for the regiments and he needs someone strong. Like, guy stong. So, would you mind helping him?”
Your teeth gritted against each other when the male finished his sentence, and you shook your head. “Why would I help? You three are men, aren’t you? You can help him just fine, and much more as three than just me.”
“Nah, I think you’d be stronger.” He responded. “Would you just help him, man?”
“No.” You answered. “You can help your friend perfectly fine by yourself. I don’t have to be involved in any way. So I would appreciate it if you please left me alone.”
The boy’s expression changed into anger as he walked up to you, grabbing the collar of your shirt and pulling you towards him. “Look, Y/n, all I’m doing is helping a friend here. Why can’t you do the same? Because you’re a little bitchy girl now? I won’t be leaving you alone until you help. You know you have the muscles, obviously you do. But you’re not going to because you’re a bitch now? Tsh, should have expected it from someone like you.”
Your eyes immediately shut the moment he grabbed your shirt and pulled you, afraid that you were going to get hit next. “Please, stop.” You said quietly.
“No, I don’t think I will.” He growled angrily. “Do you wanna help like a good person or be a bitch for the rest of your life?”
Meanwhile, still in the town that you were located in, Rico was walking around, making sure everything was going smoothly in the town as well to check in on the cadets when it was necessary. As the girl was walking, she glanced around until she noticed you and the three men, one with his hand gripped harshly on your shirt while looking extremely angry. She began to walk towards you all when she heard what was being said.
“Oh so you are gonna choose to be a bitchy girl for the rest of your life? Why don’t you just go back to where you came from, Hell?”
Tears welled up in your eyes and a few slipped out, running down your cheeks slowly. “Please, just stop.”
Rico’s eyes narrowed into a glare as she stopped in front of you two, grabbing the male’s hand and ripping it away from you and twisting it around, resulting in him yelling in pain as she spoke, “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” She spat out.
“I was doing nothing!” He cried out.
“Tsh, like I believe that. I heard what you said to her, cadet. Don’t think I won’t tell Commander Pyxis and get you kicked out.” Rico told him in an even harsher tone.
“No, please don’t tell Commander Pyxis!” He said quickly, shaking his head rapidly.
“Then don’t do this shit ever again.” Rico let go of his arm and continued to glare at him. “If I or anyone I know find’s out you continue doing this, you will be kicked out and left for the Titans.”
The boy nodded quickly and started to walk away, the other two following behind him quietly.
You stared at the girl in complete shock, not expecting anyone to help you at all since no one had before. When Rico looked over at you, you quickly looked away while moving your hair so it was covering most of your face, not wanting her or anyone else to see your tears that were still falling one by one.
“Hey...You okay?” She asked you, taking a few steps closer to you.
You glanced over at her and nodded quickly, “Oh uhm, yeah.Thank you by the way.” You replied, wiping away the tears.
The girl put her hands on your shoulders and you looked at her confused. “Save your tears for another day, don’t let those fuckers get to you. And when you become better then them whichever regiment you go into, you won’t even think about them anymore. And by the way, you’re the prettiest girl I’ve seen here.” She gave you a small smile at the end.
A blush spread across your cheeks at the compliment and you nodded, “Thank you. I really needed that.”
“It’s no problem, really. If someone ever fucks with you again, just come and find me, the name’s Rico Brzenska, it’s pretty easy to remember.” Rico responded.
“I will, thank you.” You nodded again, smiling.
The girl nodded and patted your shoulder, “And join the Garrison regiment while you’re at it, that’s where I’ll be.” She told you. “You have a really nice smile too, don’t let it go away, no matter what happens.”
“I was thinking about joining the Garrison regiment anyways.” You chuckled. “And I won’t.” Your smile grew wider.
“Good.” Rico leaned forward and hugged you for a split moment before pulling away. “Now, I’ve got to get back to duty. But maybe I’ll find you afterwards and we can talk more. I’ll see you, Y/n.” She added, flashing a smile for a second before turning and walking away.
Well, you definitely didn’t expect things to go that way. But you were glad that Rico was nearby and helped you, since no one else would most likely. You would save your tears for another day, a day that they would actually matter. You would keep the smile evident on your face as well, not going to let anyone bring you down just because of who you were. And always remember,
"Y/n, you dont have to go if you dont want to" Alex came behind me.
I giggle and continued helping the Penguin's load up their, Private's, luggage.
"I know Al, but I want to!" I anwsered with a small smile.
Alex huffed and moved his main like hair out of the way from his eye's. I frown and engulf my brother into a brone crushing hug. Alex winced, but tries to hide it since he know's I enjoy giving bear hug's.
"Oh! Sorry Alex!" I immediately released some pressure from the hug, Alex let out a sigh in comfort.
After loading the last of Private's stuffed animals, I came across a box that was horribly tapped shut. I looked around before peaking inside the box to find multiple stick's of dynamite stacked loosly in the box. I shake my head and pack the dynamite neatly with styrofoam padding on the inside. Afterwards, I grab a red marker and write: Rico's Dynamite on each side of the box.
"Y/n! Boy's! Let's move!" Skipper announced waving towards the car.
I quickly load the box, say good bye to my friend's and family, and get in the very back of the car with Private. Once every one was seated, Skipper started the car and drove away from the circus ground's. Me and Private waved to Alex and the other's till they were out of sight.
"Hey Private! What do you want for your birthday?" I asked the blue eyed boy.
Private looked infront of him in thought before answering with a bright grin.
"Another plushie, and to be a valuable member of the team!" I smiled and hugged Private, who gladly returned it.
"Hey Private do the funny thing again!" Skipper holldered looking in the rear view mirror.
The ten year old nodded and got into a saluting position, crossed his eye's and stuck his tounge out. Skipper laughed and looked back to the road. The other two not even paying attention, Kowalski is busy on his computer, Rico spaced out looking out the window at a fireworks stand.
Private put his hand down and also stared staring out the window with a sad expression. I unbuckled myself from my current seat on the driver's side and scooched over to the middle, next to Private.
Private glanced over at me, a giant smiling stretching across his face once he saw his unicorn plushie. Private took the stuffed animal and cuddled into my side, say a small thank you before he fell asleep. I kept Private close and thought one thing before I also fell asleep.
Private, you are such an important member of the team, but the other's just dont know it...Yet
Y/n Leone is Alex Leone sister, and some how manages to go with the Penguins and North Wind on an adventure to stop Dave Octavius from making human's into animal's.
Along the way, something between The demolition Expert and Y/n ignited like Dynamite!
