Work Text:
- If Blink has a rough day, he’ll just shuffle over to Mush and wordlessly hold up his arms for a hug and Mush just instantly knows exactly what cuddle he needs
- Blink is always giving his boyfriend piggybacks
- Once Elmer, clueless as always, asked Blink for a piggyback. Blink told him to fuck off
- Mush slapped him (it was actually for show and barely hurt) and scolded him, “that’s not nice love”
- They use some pet names. Mush adores all of them, but most of them annoy Blink, so mush respects that
- They compromised with dove, honey, babe, love, sometimes ducky, and sometimes sweets (only mush ever uses that one)
- They share every? Drink?
- When they were first dating, they pretended that they had girlfriends, because nobody saw them during selling hours so they could be all mushy
- But during the strike, everyone was there, and it became very obvious that they were, in fact, dating each other
- Mush is bi, and Blink could care less about girls.
- Blink is always affectionately pulling Mush’s curls gently and watching them spring back into place, he thinks they’re adorable
- Hands are always glued together
- Blink is 100% prepared to beat up anyone for Mush.
- Mush likes putting his head in Blink’s lap
- They’re lowkey so obvious that the other newsies are worried they’ll get in trouble on the streets
- Blink gets huffy at the girls that Mush flirts with for a sale
- Mush finds this funny and endearing
