Some headcanon ideas I came up with based on the OTP questions from Tumblr.
The OTP questions - Jamie/Cathy edition
-big spoon/little spoon
Jamie's the big spoon, Cathy's the little spoon. They love to sleep in each other's arms; it makes them both feel safe. :3
-favorite non-sexual activity
They still love their park bench, and will sit there at least once a week.
-who uses all the hot water
Jamie. He has to keep that lovely head of hair of his clean. ;)
-most trivial thing they fight over
Leaving the front door to their flat unlocked. Cathy has a bad habit of doing this, and Jamie is constantly reminding her to lock it at night.
-who does most of the cleaning
They split it up evenly, and they love to blast music while doing chores. Jamie in particular likes to sing while cleaning.
-what has a season pass on their dvr/who controls the netflix queue
Hmm. Well, Cathy rather enjoys Disney movies and book adaptations, while Jamie's a closeted nerd and loves Back to the Future, Star Wars, and most action films.
-who calls up the landlord when the heat's not working
Cathy has to do that, because Jamie will whine about how cold it is, but he won't actually get up and call.
-who steals the blankets
Cathy loves stealing blankets. She likes to be warm while she sleeps, and Jamie allows her to do so.
-who leaves their stuff around
They both do. They try to keep their flat like one of those model homes, but most of the time, their stuff is everywhere.
-who remembers to buy the milk
Cathy. She goes foods shopping every week.
-who remembers anniversaries
Both of them, but usually Jamie's up early for each one to give Cathy cute little surprises. ;)
-who cooks normally?
They switch off, and sometimes they cook together.
-how often do they fight?
Not a whole lot. They did a lot of fighting before Jamie's accident, and they try not to get too angry at each other about things.
-what do they do when they're away from each other?
Well, Jamie works eight hours a day at a coffee shop, and Cathy has a local internship for a psychiatrist. They'll text each other during breaks, and occasionally call.
-nicknames for each other?
They both call each other baby, sweetheart, honey, and sweetie. Jamie calls her babe if he's teasing her. And occasionally, they'll address each other as James Andrew and Catherine Lorina, if they're feeling cheeky.
-who is more likely to pay for dinner?
They switch off, although Jamie tries to pay when it's Cathy's turn.
-who steals the covers at night?
Jamie does this, as well. Cathy wakes up freezing, and has to wrestle them away from him.
-what would they get each other for gifts?
Nothing very fancy. Jamie would probably buy her jewelry and books, and Cathy would probably buy him ties and…books. :p
-who kissed who first?
Jamie kissed Cathy under a random sprig of mistletoe. (Their first unprompted kiss was almost a year later, at Bob's due; Jamie was, again, the one to initiate that.)
-who made the first move?
Jamie did, although he masked it as a joke.
-who remembers things?
Jamie does, whether he likes to or not.
-who started the relationship?
Hmm. Well, they both did at Bob's due. Then Cathy came back after Jamie's accident, and she stayed at the hospital. And when he got out of jail, he asked her out first. So…both of them.
-who cusses more?
They're both guilty of this. ;)
-what would they do if the other one was hurt?
Cathy knows when Jamie closes himself off that he's hurting, so she gives him space for a while before letting him talk and giving him hugs and the occasional kiss. She, on the other hand, is much more open about her pain. And he's right there with her, wiping away her tears and holding her close.
