I have a dumb question that you should by all means ignore if you see fit, but are your headcanons for a younger Jacob or the sexy 40-year-old Jacob? Do you have any specific headcanons for older!Jacob?
I never ignore anything in my askbox, (and if I did, then that’s because tumblr ate the message and omg I sincerely hope that’s never happened to any of you). Nor will I ever find any questions you guys have for me as stupid. You guys are amazing and probably the best followers a blogger could ask for, it is physically impossible for y’all to give me a stupid question. Literally, ask me anything!! I will never not want to answer you lovely people!
But hmm, I honestly imagine younger Jacob for most of my headcanon’s, but many (if not all) of those daddy headcanon’s can also apply to 40yr old Jacob.
As for specific headcanon’s for Older!Jacob, of course I have them ಠ‿ಠ
But, many of them are on the angsty side given his history of reverting to alcohol with his depression from Evie leaving him and him being all alone. He’s needy without proper attention the puppy cinnamon-roll can easily become depressed
However, there are happy ones if we’re pretending Emmett was his canon son, such as his days of training Emmett, (and possibly happy times with his wife, if we’re saying she’s around too), and his dealing with fancy official Detective Freddy, hehe. And don’t forget him probably annoying the crap out of Aleck every time he comes to him for new weapons or he breaks something lmao. I also have headcanon’s of his super cute interactions with Clara, and helping her grow up. I know she wasn’t in the DLC, along with any other associates (which supremely pisses me off), but I firmly believe she had a total crush on him- and that he later became a strong father figure in her life.
I HAVE A MIGHTY NEED TO WRITE A FIC WITH OLDER!JACOB WALKING CLARA DOWN THE AISLE S C RE AMS
*ahem* okay I am fine now.
Oh- and speaking of father figures, I am without a doubt a believer that Jacob became an unintentional Father to many of his Rooks, as they were probably orphans once that grew up to become a part of his gang (which further breaks my heart then when we learn his Rooks turned against him in the DLC I’m sad now). But, happy thought: you bet your buns he still probably had dealings with the kids throughout the years, and at least had a new generation of happy, young, bright chubby faces greeting him back after his time in confinement with Jack :’) and I’m also certain that’s one of the main reasons he learned to gain some confidence back in himself and recuperate back to his legendary ‘ol self after the whole Jack the Ripper mess- all with Evie’s help of course.
But with all that, if you want me to make a fun somewhat angsty little list, I sure can! Just make sure when you make the request you specify it’s for 40yr old/Older!Jacob
