Thomas and Pat for ask game
Thomas:
A song that reminds me of them: "I Want You To Want Me" by Cheap Trick. I mean, the name says it all, doesn't it?
What they smell like: Like an old library
An otp: Thomas/Humphrey. Every so often Thomas sees Humphrey as more than an object, and Humphrey is able to let his guard down around him knowing he won't be punted that day. The two would bond over their artistic pursuits in life, be that poetry or painting. I have a lot of soft feelings about this pairing, though there's some heavy lifting to do on Thomas's part to get him to be nicer to Humphrey.
Thomas/Fanny is a new interest of mine, as a short-lived affair when Fanny was still new to the ghost crew.
A notp: Thomas/Kitty romantically (but I am partial to Kitty having a one-sided schoolgirl crush on him. Once Thomas found out, he started playing into it, but then she wasn't interested anymore)
Not a strict notp, but I'm not interested in Captain/Thomas. No big reason as to why, I just don't care for them together in that way (weird considering I ship Humphrey with both of them individually).
Favorite platonic/familial relationships:
Thomas/Kitty as besties, I DO think!!! There's a lot of fun to be had with these two, with them both being hopeless romantics and slightly annoying about their infatuations. They're supportive of each other nonetheless.
Thomas/Mary, I see the vision, I see it for them! Mary has no issue putting Thomas in his place, and she apparently is a voice of reason for Thomas. There's a lot that can be explored with these two. I also like the idea of Mary having been attracted to most of the ghosts in the house, except Thomas. And he takes that personally lol.
A headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that I disagree with: I don't think Isabelle was Thomas's true love. I think she was one of several women that he became infatuated with. It's just tragic that he happened to die over his feelings for her. Also idk if it's a popular headcanon that Isabelle was his true love, but yeah, I don't think she's the Sophie, Carol, or even Havers equivalent to Thomas's backstory (depending on how you choose to read Havers' significance to Captain).
The position they sleep in: he sleeps like a vampire, on his back, arms crossed along his chest.
A crossover AU I'd love to see them in: I would love a WWDITS crossover in general, for all the ghosts, but Thomas specifically. I would love to see him fall for both Nadja and Laszlo.
My favorite outfit they've ever worn: He's only got one outfit that we've seen, but the jacket he wore with it in The Thomas Thorne Affair makes the outfit more cohesive.
Pat:
A song that reminds me of them: "Gotta Get Up" by Harry Nilsson. Pat wakes up each day ready to be productive!
What they smell like: like the great outdoors! And aftershave
An otp: hmmm I don't have any go-to OTPs for Pat. I can see him with just about anyone. Maybe Pat/Julian?
A notp: Pat/Kitty romantically
Favorite platonic/familial relationships:
Pat/Julian I really enjoy! They're the ghosts who are closest in time, both in life and death, so I enjoy watching them bond over pop culture references that the others don't understand.
Cap/Pat. I see the potential for them to be romantic, but I also like them as friends. Aside from Fanny, Captain is the closest to Pat. Sometimes they're at odds regarding who's the "real" leader of the group, but they seem to have a lot of respect for each other.
A headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that I disagree with: I don't think this is a popular headcanon, but Pat is not as politically correct as he may seem. I mean s3 kinda confirmed that, but yeah. There are levels to Pat that I think go ignored in fic and headcanons sometimes.
The position they sleep in: he could only sleep on his back due to the arrow, right? So yeah, on his back, even though he hates having to sleep like that.
A crossover AU I'd love to see them in: Not a crossover, but a band manager AU would be interesting for Pat!
My favorite outfit they've ever worn: His jumper from s3ep5!!
**update: I guess I should've elaborated, but the reason I don't ship Kitty romantically (anymore) is because I'm assuming she's somewhere around 18-19 years old, and the others are just much older -- the closest in age to her might be Thomas, but headcanon him as early 30s, or late 20s at the very least. and I used to be in the Kitty/Mary train, but thinking more about how Mary would have watched her grow up, shipping them romantically feels a bit off... so yeah ✌🏾
