justin getting DMs from the cast is my favorite fucking thing
For the anon who wanted ben in n3 for the sleepy prompts
Anon .... thank you so much because I love him and I would die for him
Jim from the office and Ben from the umbrella academy are the same person
some headcanons for ben once he’s back alive?
these are some dark ones lol sorry
•ben comes back to life. he's freezing cold, yet his stomach burns and aches with something unsettled
•one of the first things he does is try to eat. the smell of food quickly becomes too strong and nauseating. he vomits out all his dinner
•he forgets that the others can hear him, and tends to only address klaus when speaking
•his skin aches for contact, for touch, starved of it after 14 years of being incorporeal
•his siblings greet him with big hugs.
•the touch is overwhelming, and he quickly has to excuse himself for a break. only klaus can physically contact him for a while after that.
•he forgets how to eat, how to sleep, forgets to breathe and blink.
•after years of built up codependency, it becomes habit and a comfort to ben. the others have to stress to him that he is independent.
•he finds himself still lingering around klaus like a shadow. he slowly grows controlling with knowing where klaus is, what he's doing, now that he isn't around to see.
•anxiety claws at him at long bouts of separation.
•he tries desperately to bond with his other siblings, but forgets how to respond in certain social situations.
•his stomach burns from The Horror being alive again. It rumbles and claws under his skin when he tries to sleep
Klaus: I am straight-up depressed. Ben’s been doing his best to cheer me up. He gave me this sticker this morning just for waking up.
Diego: Ew, it’s like you’re dating your teacher.
Klaus: I know, it’s so hot.
Diego: I turned out perfectly FINE!
Luther: This morning you thought a ghost made your toast
Diego: I DIDN’T PUT THE BREAD IN! YOU DIDN’T PUT THE BREAD IN!
Ben, putting more toast into the toaster: Toasty toasty for my broski
Ben and Klaus Hargreeves are such a lovable duo!
Do with this what you will.
