Summary: Riley and Huey with a little sister!

⁠

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ When Granddad first saw you, he swore up and down you were a gift from heaven itself. His sweet baby girl finally someone in the house who wouldn’t break things, start fights, or quote Marx during dinner

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ He spoiled you rotten from day one. New shoes, cookies before dinner, extra TV time all of it meanwhile, Huey and Riley sat on the couch side eyeing granddad ⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ “Granddad… she’s literally three. She can’t even read.” “I don’t care! She don’t talk back! That’s already more than I can say for you two.” "I'm six...?"

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ Huey pretends you’re “just another distraction from his work,” but secretly he makes sure you’re always safe and fed first

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. You’ll be coloring next to him while he writes his next essay about social injustice and he’ll quietly hand you more crayons without saying a word

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. For Riley the minute you could walk, he was like, “Aight lil sis, time to learn the hustle.” You’re his partner in crime until he gets caught, then it’s “Nah, she ain’t even involved"

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Riley is the only person that does your hair properly.. other then Jasmine of course

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Riley had no clue what he was doing at first kept pulling too hard and acting like you were the problem “Stop movin’, you makin’ it harder!” "GRANDADD-" "AYE DONT BE A SNITCH" But after a few tries (and some yelling from you), he got surprisingly good at it.

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Braids a little uneven? Sure. But he’ll slap some beads at the end, hype you up, and say, “See? You look fire!”

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Huey teaches you self defense the first thing he does when he starts the first lesson like it’s a military operation “Discipline, focus, awareness.” You're staring at him wondering why is he teaching a six year old how to rock someone's shit

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. The three of you once tried to cook dinner for Granddad. It ended in smoke alarms and takeout, but he still called it “the best meal ever.”

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Huey reads you bedtime stories that somehow turn into history lessons

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Once, a kid pushed you on the playground the next day, Huey showed up early to “observe” recess. That kid never pushed anyone again

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Granddad lets you get away with everything. Broke a vase? “That’s okay, baby.” Riley touches it? “BOY YOU GON’ PAY FOR THAT"

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. You asked Riley to help with your homework once big mistake. “Aight, 2+2 is… like, 8, right?” Huey had to intervene before your report card started to burst into flames

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Riley is your favorite to play with, but Huey is your favorite when you can’t sleep He’ll sit on the floor next to your bed, reading until you drift off

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. You and Riley fight over the dumbest things who gets the last juice box? Who controls the remote? Who used whose brush? Huey just sits there sipping tea like, “And people wonder why I have trust issues.

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. One time, Riley snatched your favorite snack, so you used one of Huey’s self-defense moves on him Riley hit the floor like, “Ayo she just mortal kombat-ed me!” Huey didn’t even look up from his book

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ It always starts small Riley blasting music too loud, Huey trying to concentrate, and you sitting on the couch minding your business. Until suddenly Huey yells, “Riley, turn that noise down!” and Riley just ignores him

━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ You try to stay out of it at first. You really do but then Huey turns to you like, “(Y/N), tell him it’s too loud.” Riley spins around “Don’t listen to him! Tell him it’s fire!” and now you’re in the middle of a political debate over Thugnificent’s new mixtape

━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹ Hanging out with Jasmine is your favorite part of the week. She always shows up with snacks, a new story about her dad, and at least three friendship bracelets for you “because matching is important!”

⁠━━━ ．°˖✧ 🎀˚₊ ⊹. Granddad tried to take a “family picture” once Riley refused to smile, Huey looked like he was plotting a coup, and you were grinning with missing teeth Granddad printed that picture out and hung it in the living room anyway

Being Huey & Riley Freeman little sister headcannons.

Pairing: Huey Freeman x little sister!reader x Riley Freeman. Mentions of grandad too.

Trigger warnings: none.

You have your own rules. Granddad says “no fighting,” but Riley teaches you how to throw a punch and Huey teaches you how to dodge one. So technically, you’re following someone’s rules — just not always Granddad’s.

• You lowkey have the most power in the house. If you cry, Huey pauses his revolution. Riley puts the game on mute. Granddad starts handing out ice cream and bribes.

• Your style is a mix of both brothers. Some days you rock braids and little gold hoops like Riley picked your fit, other days you’re in combat boots and oversized shirts like Huey helped you dress. Either way, you’re cooler than everyone at school.

• You’ve perfected “the look.” One raised eyebrow, arms crossed, just like Huey when he’s disappointed. Riley says it’s scary how good you are at it — mostly because it works on him.

• You narrate everything dramatically. Riley caught you doing a fake “Boondocks” voiceover one day and now he hypes you up like, “Yo, my sister tryna get her own show!”

• You make up dances to Riley’s mixtapes and force him to be in your TikToks (he hates it but does it anyway). Huey acts uninterested… until you catch him watching them with the faintest smile.

• You’re the only one who can make Huey laugh out loud. It usually happens when you misquote a philosopher and follow it with “… or whatever he said.”

• You say “I’m telling Granddad!” at least once a day. It’s your trump card in every sibling argument. You don’t always snitch, but it’s your most powerful threat.

• You call family meetings. You saw Huey do it once, so now you bang a spoon on a cereal bowl and make everyone sit down so you can talk about something important — like “who keeps using my glitter pens.”

• You’ve got a whole gang of neighborhood kids who follow you around. They call you “Lil Freeman” and think you’re the brains and the muscle behind both brothers.

• You fall asleep during movie night with your head on Riley’s arm and your feet in Huey’s lap. They pretend they’re annoyed. They’re not.

Your Relationship with Huey Freeman:

• Huey is the big brother who lowkey acts like a parent. He’s overprotective but in a quiet, strategic way — he doesn’t hover, he watches from the shadows like a hawk.

• He sees you as the one person he has a chance to “save” from the ignorance and chaos of the world. So he tries to raise you right — reading you radical Black history books, teaching you martial arts, and correcting your grammar like it’s a revolutionary act.

• Despite being serious 99% of the time, he has a soft spot just for you. You’re the only one who can get him to crack a smile or break his “calm and calculated” vibe.

• He always walks on the side closest to the street, carries your backpack if it’s too heavy, and makes sure your nightlight works — even though he’d never admit it.

• If anyone messes with you, Huey doesn’t fight first — he investigates, finds their weakness, and ruins them with quiet precision.

Your Relationship with Riley Freeman:

• Riley calls you “Lil G” or “Shorty” and swears up and down that you’re gonna be his “ride or die” someday. He spoils you with candy, lets you wear his chains (temporarily), and teaches you all the words you probably shouldn’t be saying in school.

• He teaches you how to roast people. Like… really roast them. Your comebacks are elite because Riley made sure you didn’t go into the world soft.

• When Huey’s being too serious, Riley takes you skateboarding, sneaks you ice cream, or lets you stay up late watching rap videos — “but don’t tell Huey.”

• He tries to toughen you up because he thinks the world is rough, but he’s also the first to step up if someone makes you cry. He’ll square up with anyone — classmate, teacher, grown adult — if you’re upset.

• You’re the only person Riley shares his drawings with. He pretends he doesn’t care what you think, but your praise means everything to him.

Your Relationship with Granddad (Robert Freeman):

• Granddad treats you like the princess of the house — until you break something. Then suddenly you’re “just like your brothers!”

• He lets you watch his soaps with him and gives you little life lessons like “Don’t trust no man without a job or a good hairline.”

• You wrap him around your little finger. You want candy? You get candy. You want a dollar? You get five. But if Huey or Riley asks? “Get a job!”

• He complains about all the noise in the house, but the second you fall asleep on the couch, he carries you to bed and tucks you in like you’re still a baby.

Random Headcanons:

• You sleep in Huey’s old hoodie because it makes you feel safe. Riley pretends to hate that, but he leaves his next to it “just in case.”

• You get in trouble at school for correcting the teacher because Huey told you the real version of history. (“Christopher Columbus didn’t discover anything, ma’am.”)

• You and Riley have matching sneakers. He bought you a pair with his allowance after he scuffed yours by accident.

• You and Huey read under the covers with a flashlight. Sometimes he lets you read aloud, and he patiently helps you with the big words.

• You say “I love you” to Huey and he nods and says “Me too.”

You say it to Riley and he goes, “Man shut up… I love you too though.”

Huey Freeman x Reader

A/N: A boondocks universe in which aged up Huey is in university, and he has a wabi sabi girlfriend.

Background:

Your relationship is kept on the down low unintentionally; he’s not a PDA type of person and you don’t mind the thrill of ‘sneaking around’. It’s really not sneaking around but he lets you have your fun. Also, personality wise, people wouldn’t guess you guys were together. He’s quite and you’re….well….random.

The truth is you both grew up in the same neighbourhood but not close enough that you interacted on a daily. In fact, the first time you guys spoke to each other was at uni despite attending the same primary and secondary school.

Huey was a reserved but observant, highly intelligent, stoic, detached but a caring person and you were a free spirit, passionate and self-motivated, somewhere along the lines of an anarchic individualist.

From his younger years, Huey has been forced into roles of authority like; captain of the kick ball team or the drama performance at school. So, he barely struggled when he’s thrust into the role of class president and that’s how he encounters you, captain of the medieval reenactment society and his classmate.

Relationship:

You and Huey share love languages, quality time, physical touch (mostly you) and acts of service (mostly him). He has also ‘studied’ you, not in a creepy way, but like someone who’s memorized the rhythm of your breathing. Knows when you’ll bite your lip before you do, when your hands will fist at your sides. He’s the type to slide a coffee toward you three seconds before you realize you’re tired, or list out ‘Option A will make you overthink; Option B will piss you off, but you’ll pick it anyway’ when your brain starts spiralling.

Although there is no overt display of affection, you guys share little touches here and there. Like during lectures when you sit together in the busy hall and you want to hold his hand but hesitate because you know how serious he takes his studies and the last thing you want is to be a distraction. While you wrestle down the impulse, his hand slides over yours under the desk, thumb smoothing your knuckles and giving a reassuring squeeze. He doesn’t glance away from the lecture but the corner of his mouth ticks up, just for you.

Other times, it’s him feeding you while you ramble about your recent hyper fixation. Or when you’re with friends and he stares at you intently to get your attention.

Bonus example: You and Huey usually walk to your accommodations together after school but one day you had waited half an hour and so you went in search for him only to find him passed out in an empty classroom. Walking up to him, you peck him on the lips and whisper his name. He opens his eyes and reciprocates the kiss apologising for his tardiness. You forgive him of course.

At Wood Crest:

At home everyone knew both of you were together, Riley, Grandad Robert, Tom, even Uncle Ruckus (no relation). On break from uni, you guys head home together, and you usually spend most of your time at his house. You’re an only child so nothing happens at your house.

At the Freeman household, Riley is still getting into trouble, Grandad Robert is still bringing home strange women, Huey is still advising them, and he is also still getting ignored. Usually, he swallows the frustration that accompanies these situations but ever since you came along, he uses you as his stress relief.

For example: Riley had just shared his new ‘brilliant’ business idea with Huey. Huey, at his desk, typing, shut him down because his ‘brilliant’ idea could get him killed. Riley did not appreciate the honesty as usual. Some unpleasant words were thrown around before Riley stormed out. You lay on Huey’s bed half scrolling on your phone and half listening to the commotion. Some minutes after Riley left, Huey releases a loud sigh and then you hear sounds of shuffling before feeling the bed dip. Soon your arms are being lifted to make room for him to lay on you.

“He’s impossible” Huey grumbles into your neck. “He’ll be alright” you respond while massaging his scalp and scrolling on your phone. Theres another sigh and then a deep breathhu.
