Ship breakdown for sweet Caroline and her Joe pls

Thank you bb!!

I’m going to put some of it under a cut because it got long!!

edit: I'm sorry, I just realized how mobile messed with the format in this post :((

How did they they meet?

They met in foster care after Joseph’s second home and after Caroline’s first home. Caroline was scared and not aware of what was going on because she had been with her foster parents since she was a baby, and Joseph helped her feel safe and gave her a friend before she was sent to her next foster home. (She’s about 6 when this happens, Joseph is around 9/10).

Who developed romantic feelings first?

Definitely Joseph. Caroline was a little slow to realize how she felt for Joseph, but Joseph knew from the second time they met when they were teenagers that he loved her.

Who is their biggest “shipper?”

Their daughter Ruth. She’s in love with her parents’ love and always says that she can’t wait until she finds a boy to love her as much as Joseph loves Caroline. (She’s about seven when she tells them this).

When did they have their first kiss and under what circumstances?

Ooh okay so their first kiss happened when Caroline was 19 and Joseph was 22. He had just started working on Caroline’s adoptive parents’ orchard/farm and they were sitting out under the peach trees eating some of the fruit. Caroline had some peach juice on her lips and Joseph went to wipe it away with his thumb, but he decided to kiss it away instead.

Who confessed their feelings first?

Joseph! He basically hits her with the whole “God has told me about you, he’s shown me that you are meant for me” and Caroline, being in love with the idea of soul mates, thought that was romantic.

What was their first official date?

Joseph took her to a small Italian restaurant when he got his first paycheck from her parents. They stayed out until after one am looking at the stars from under a tree in the park.

How do they feel about double dates/group dates?

I think the only double date they’d go on would be if I put my other girls in their canon. Otherwise, I don’t see them going on any!

What do they do in their down time?

Fuck.

Okay, serious answer now! Speaking for when they’re living in Montana, when they aren’t busy with their jobs they will usually lounge together in their backyard or bedroom. Joseph works on his sermons and Caroline reads a book. They’re always cuddling in private, Caroline being a very cuddly person, always wanting to be near Joseph. They also spend time with their children, playing games and taking turns reading to them.

What was the first meeting of parents as an official couple like?

Caroline never met Joseph’s parents for canon reasons, but Joseph’s first meeting with Caroline’s adoptive parents went…alright. At first he was just looking for a job, but once Caroline’s parents found out they were together, they were a little wary of Joseph. They were scared he would cause Caroline sadness and take advantage of her, typical over-protective parents stuff. I’m still playing around with the idea that they both will eventually meet Caroline’s birth mother one day (I’m not sure just how much angst I want to include there)

What was their first fight over and how did they get past it?

Their first real fight was over their living situation. Caroline had started getting annoyed that Joseph couldn’t hold down a job and that they moved around so much while looking for John and Jacob that it was hard for Caroline to keep a job. She was tired of living in his car and having no money and she threatened to go back to her parents. They moved past it when Joseph told her that this was all part of God’s plan for them, that they had to suffer and be tested so they could make it to the new Eden that was promised to them. Caroline, believing in Joseph wholeheartedly, decided to put faith in him and continue to pray that their situation would eventually change.

Which one is more easily made jealous?

Ooh definitely Caroline! Envy is one of her greatest sins. She grew up envious of the children that were adopted before she was, envious of the way her friends had steady jobs and places to live…she becomes jealous very easily.

What is their favourite thing to get to eat?

Because they never had much extra money (or money at all, really), they weren’t used to eating out much. Pizza was always a go-to in the beginning, but there was nothing better than Caroline’s home cooked meals.

Who’s the cuddly one? What their favourite cuddling position?

Caroline, definitely. She loves sitting with her back against his chest and his arms around her. She also loves when they cuddle in bed, with her head on his chest and their legs intertwined.

Are they hand holders?

At the beginning they are! They cut back on it once Eden’s Gate really starts taking off in Montana, but before they left Atlanta they held hands constantly.

How long do they wait before sleeping together for the first time? What’s the circumstances?

After they meet up the third time (when Joseph starts working at the orchard), it takes them two months to sleep together. Caroline is a little worried because she had never had sex before that Joseph wouldn’t like sleeping with her because she had no experience. It happened one night that her parents were out of town; Joseph had gone over to spend a couple of hours with her (she hated being home alone), and one thing led to another.

Who tops?

Would I be controversial if I said Caroline?

What’s the worst first they’ve ever gotten into?

Ohh most definitely the one where Caroline asked him to stop looking for his brothers. That was…bad. Caroline was seven months pregnant with their first child and still living in his car and she was tired of it, she was uncomfortable and terrified for their future and begged him to just stop looking, just for a year, so they could find jobs and settle down somewhere they could afford an apartment so their baby wouldn’t be taken away from them because they were homeless. She was scared and lashed out at him.

Who does the shopping and the cooking?

Joseph did the shopping and Caroline cooked. Eventually she’d get Joseph to help out with the cooking, but Caroline got a little obsessive with keeping their kitchen clean once they finally had a home that she’d chase Joseph out.

Which one is more organized and prone to tidiness?

I think they’re both pretty even, honestly. I can see, once they’re in Montana, they both take pride (ha, bad phrase choice) in the home they’re finally able to own together with their children and want it to look nice with everything in its place.

Who proposes?

Kind of both of them? Caroline brings it up first, saying that if God is telling Joseph that Caroline is meant for him, that they should just get married. It’s not an official proposal, and a couple of months later Joseph gives her a ring with a small diamond he got from a pawn shop and officially proposes to her.

Do they have joined Bachelor/Bacheloette parties or separate?

They didn’t have a true bachelor/bachelorette party, they just got a cheap bottle of wine and shared it a couple nights before they got married.

Who is the best man/maid of honour? Any other groomsmen or bridesmaids?

Caroline’s parents were there when they were married. Caroline’s friend served as her maid of honor, and her father stepped in as Joseph’s best man. (They were married before they found John and Jacob)

Big Ceremony or Small?

It was a very small ceremony in a small church.

Do they have a honeymoon? If so, where?

John paid for them to go on a honeymoon once they found him. The two of them chose Nashville because it was close to where they were living, and Joseph knew he had to continue the search for Jacob sooner rather than later. They were in Nashville for four days, with John meeting them there to continue looking.

Do they have children? How many?

I’m stuck between five or eight….they have a lot of kids, oop (if they have 8, the last two pregnancies were twin pregnancies, sorry Caroline)
