hcs of bio dad dick and child gar

also hi!!

hi Elle!! you asked for headcanons and headcanons you shall receive,,

- since Dick was the only adult Gar grew up around, it's not a surprise he acts and talks like him. The Grayson sass/sarcasm is strong with Gar. Imagine Gar's attitude in season 3 but cranked up a little more. He's well mannered and sweet with his dad but to others yes, including Kory and Rachel when they first met not so much- mostly because he's copying Dick, who's all soft and sweet dad with him but gives everyone who's not Gar (and the soon-to-be fam) an attitude. They're sassy dramatic kings who have the same laugh.

he also might have been a little upset when Kory and Rachel joined them because for the last few years he hasn't been getting a lot of father-son time with Dick and once he finally gets it, some strangers Dick buddied up with join in on a mission he didn't even know they were on. But Gar doesn't express his inner emotions and will sit in the back seat of the van like :) while the other three discuss.

- Dick is a good parent (much better than Bruce ever was) who's not afraid to let his son know how much he loves him and will do anything for Gar, but my gOD does the man SUCK at time managing. He's detective like canon which means he's gone a lot and when he's not at the office, he's doing something work related at home. So there were a lot of days Gar would come home from school to an empty house and wait for Dick or the days Dick would be staying at work into the night, he'll make dinner for himself and do whatever else until it's time to go to bed. Gar knows Dick's job is important and knows how hard it's been for him having to raise Gar mostly alone but he's still his dad, he wants to spend time with him and can't help but feel thrown to the side when it comes to Dick's job, even though he doesn't want to feel that way. He doesn't feel unloved or neglected, just lonely and little sad.

- we're still on the angst train so sometime after Asylum, Gar confronts Dick about his going feral and beating the guards with a pipe in the asylum tunnel since yikes did that confuse and slightly disturb Gar. If I saw my dad, who I barely saw angry, snap and destroy like fifteen people in the span of four minutes, then end up being covered in said people's blood. Yeah, I'd be a little uncomfortable/disturbed too. Knowing he can't lie his way out of this one, Dick reveals to Gar that he used to be Robin, Batman's sidekick. Explaining how he could fight so well. And that reveal would have went over well if this was canon Gar but it isn't, this Gar was raised to believe superheroes were untrustworthy and maybe even wrong to exist. A belief brought upon by Dick refusing to let go of his past and what Bruce did to him by making him Robin. Dick is a very bitter man when it comes to heroes since he was fucked over so many times by them and the villains that follow. And Gar, being a kid who can't understand or see the full picture since he knew nothing about his dad's past as Robin or what he went through, overreacts. Upset and hurt that not only lied to him but had the NERVE to hide so many things from him when all Dick did was preach about not hiding things, especially serious things, when he was growing up. That information mixed with him already struggling with post-asylum, it was not a good night for him but he wasn't alone for too long thanks to Rachel.

- Barbara didn't truly meet Gar until this au's version of s3. She was overjoyed when she got to meet him though, instantly taking the aunt role very seriously. Much like Donna, telling Gar about all the stupid stuff Dick did as a kid. Her first thing she did after meeting Gar was joke to Dick "Wow! he looks nothing like you. Sure he's yours? He's much cuter than you, too." which made Dick fake a laugh, saying "I have the dna test to prove it" because it's not like he gets that one all the time or anything.

- I'mma leave it with this one since it's getting long. Dick dies in this s3 the same way he does in canon but with a little twist with Red Hood being the one who shoots him instead of random dude because that was dumb. What did he see in the Lazarus Pit? Who knows, he didn't tell anyone. But what is known is that little act of revenge Red Hood pulled made Gar want him to drop dead, now and probably forever hating Jason. Well, it's not like Gar really liked him anyway, so.

Im dying to know, do you have any holiday-themed Steve, Robin, Party, etc. headcanons?

god you KNOW i do!!! first of all i celebrate christmas and i dont rly know anything about other holidays this time of year so im just gonna... work on the assumption that they all celebrate christmas, but if anyone who doesnt celebrate or celebrates something else wants to reblog and add their own hcs i encourage it!!! okay this is gonna be so scattered but:

steve never really liked christmas very much. it was always just stressful and he hated having to spend time with his family and he always got like the most generic expensive boring gifts from his parents and it just wasn't really fun... the first christmas he really got into it was the christmas he spent with nancy and after they broke up, he was like oh christmas just fucking sucks!! but then...

that next christmas dustin invites him over for christmas eve and he brings a pie that he bought from the grocery store and claudia thanks him a million times and he wishes that he'd baked it himself so he didn't feel so guilty

dustin gives him a little baseball bat ornament and claudia is like "oh i thought you played basketball!" and steve is like "oh uh i do but i like baseball too :)" and he and dustin kinda smile at each other and steve ruffles his hair and they watch rudolph on tv and steve is like oh christmas.... is good......

speaking of dustin he always starts thinking about christmas gifts in like october but somehow ends up with absolutely nothing on december 20th and he has to run around in a panic finding gifts for the party

he drinks hot chocolate like a maniac... he doesnt drink water the entire month of december it's hot chocolate or it's nothing

hes one of those people who will say "come on it's christmas!!!" on like the tenth

lucas is one of those people who will say "no asshole it's december tenth"

lucas loves christmas!! he just thinks that it's a day and not a whole fucking month!!! he thinks anything before like december 15th is too much

the only thing he hates about christmas is that his parents always make him and erica pick out gifts for each other with no help from them... and since erica is an evil genius she always gets lucas the perfect gift just so she can hold it over his head for the entire year when he accidentally gets her a toy she already owns

she literally watches him open his present like >:) and lucas is pissed when it's this extremely specific action figure that he's wanted for a long time but he swears he never even mentioned it to anybody

and then he just sits there feeling like a stupid asshole as she unwraps a random doll that lucas figured she might like since its hair looks kind of sort of vaguely like erica's and she's like "thanks lucas :) i think i have this one already but it's sweet" and his parents are like "hey it's the thought that counts! erica see your brother knows what you like :)" and she's like "yeah :)" and then as soon as their parents aren't looking she sticks her tongue out at lucas and he sticks his out back at her

the sinclairs have such a disgustingly perfect christmas like they bake cookies together and shit it's adorable

speaking of adorable families the byers house is so full of love on christmas

almost all of the ornaments on their tree are handmade little crafts from when will and jonathan were younger and they buy tinsel at the dollar store and just go fucking ham with it their tree always looks like a hobby lobby threw up

growing up joyce would usually try to get them some things they need on christmas and then like one or two special things for each of them and she could never buy the fancy new toys that were in all the ads on tv and in magazines but she knows her boys.... jonathan got his first camera on christmas and it was from a secondhand store and kind of dinged up and definitely old as shit but he loved it..... will always got some new construction paper and crayons or markers so by the end of christmas day joyce would have new drawings to put up on the fridge or a new little ornament that he made for her.....

sometime in november jonathan would always be like "okay will i have a secret mission for you, you need to find out something mom needs that we could give her for christmas!" and will would be like "you have to say your mission should you choose to accept it" and jonathan would say "well i know you're gonna accept the mission" and will's like "jonathannnnn" and jonathan would be like "okay fine your mission should you choose to accept it" and will would be like >:) im a spy >:)

so little baby will would action roll around the house humming the mission impossible theme and peeking around walls at joyce and then after like a week he'd say "i think mom needs a stool she keeps jumping to try and reach stuff high up in the cabinets" and jonathan's like awesome thanks and he finds a cheap folding stool and some chocolates that he can afford with whatever money he has saved up and he has will wrap it because he figures it's like ten times cuter that way and joyce cries when she sees the little christmas card will put with the stool for her

i'm going way more in depth than i need to thvjdjcd but basically the byers house is all love man... so much love ..... they don't use colored lights anymore they only use the solid strands but they still have fun decorating together and will makes paper chains and stuff to hang up and i'm about to make myself cry

so!! this is getting super long fjvndmcmd

nancy is absolute dogshit at buying presents for people she's just terrible at it. she always just asks mike and holly and her parents what they want and buys exactly what they tell her and if they don't tell her anything then she has like a mental breakdown about it and panics and buys like. a flannel pajama gift set from the department store.

when she's dating steve he tells her not to worry about getting him anything which she takes at face value until her mom asks what she's giving steve like three days before christmas and then she starts panicking and she goes to a sporting goods store and just asks the first employee she sees what a teenage boy who plays basketball might like

steve can't tell if he should be like happy or vaguely offended that his girlfriend gave him like shoe deodorizers and a water bottle and socks for a sports team that he doesn't root for... she tried though and thats all he cares about

she and jonathan agree they'll exchange gifts but nothing over like MAX fifteen bucks which is easy she just finds a tape or a record she thinks he'll like and she's set (she spends a full hour in the music store and almost just gets a gift certificate for him but eventually she just says fuck it and picks some random shit she's never heard of and hopes he likes whatever it is)

mike on the other hand is actually like... insanely good at gift giving because he pays close attention to the people he cares about and he just like Knows if lucas or dustin or will is gonna like something

he just doesnt really buy into christmas all that much?? it's cool to get free stuff and eat cookies and all but he thinks people make it into a bigger deal than it should be

holly still believes in santa though so he likes seeing how excited she gets on christmas... it warms his cold tween boy heart.....

the first christmas he gets to spend with el he turns into a fucking christmas enthusiast and he makes her hot chocolate and gives her a tape full of christmas songs and he asks his mom for a bigger gift allowance because he has a GIRLFRIEND now and she's never- uh, THEY'VE never celebrated christmas TOGETHER so it has to be SPECIAL MOM!!!!

karen is like buddy calm down but it's so nice to see him excited about something again that she caves and gives him like forty bucks and tells him not to tell nancy or his dad

el and hopper christmas... i cannot go into detail or i WILL cry but hopper takes her with him to pick out their tree and she's so meticulous about it like examining all of them and he's just standing there in the cold freezing his ass off letting her do her thing because she's so excited that he doesn't have the heart to tell her they're basically all the same and to just hurry up and pick one

he gives her a lot of books... there are so many books under their ugly fucking tree because el picks one thats extremely crooked because she says it seems nice and hopper cant find any of his old decorations so they have to start from scratch...

el enlists the whole party for help finding hopper a present because it has to be the best present of all time!!!! they're like well what does he like and she's like uh tv.... coffee.... gun...... and they're like uh we can get him a coffee mug?

so on christmas morning el presents him with a "BEST DAD" mug full of candy and he hugs her so she won't see that he's fucking crying

she also gives max a drawing she did of max as wonder woman and it isn't very good but max says it's her favorite present she's ever gotten and she keeps it folded up in her nightstand

max has mixed feelings about christmas

i should not have saved her for last this is depressing

fuck her family fuck all of that okay max spends christmas eve with the sinclairs and christmas day with el because her mom and neil don't really feel like celebrating this year and so for the first time in a long time her christmas is full of love and joy and hopper makes them cinnamon rolls for breakfast which el has never had before and it's great

the party usually does a big gift swap and they don't get each other anything too fancy or expensive but it's sweet... they all gather in mike's basement like the day after christmas and eat the leftovers from the wheelers' christmas dinner and give each other comics and action figures and dice

once robin enters the picture she and steve lowkey get smashed on christmas eve together off peppermint schnapps and they play rockin around the christmas tree like ten times and jump around until they get dizzy...

they give each other little things like every other day leading up to christmas so by the end of december they've exchanged gifts like ten times but it isn't their FAULT okay!!! steve just saw these earrings and thought of her so he got them... and robin couldn't just leave that wham! crop top sitting in the store...... and steve couldn't resist the cheap bff necklaces he found while looking for a gift for erica....... and what is robin meant to do, ignore the stuffed kermit doll she saw in a store window?

it's just unrealistic

i like to think that everybody gathers at the byers house for lunch or dinner on christmas eve... they just hang out and exchange presents and make cookies and watch christmas movies and argue over which ones suck and which ones are actually good...... they just spend time together without any fear or danger and it's good
