hc_bingo is doing their February "postage stamp" cards again, which means you get 3 prompts + a wildcard square (prompt of your choice) and need to use them all in your fill. I got this:

WILD CARD
cuddling

CPR / rescue breathing
body image issues

Cuddling and CPR work great together! .... and then there's the other one ... which is not so thematically connected.

However, this made me start thinking about characters in my various fandoms and their likelihood of cuddling. (Leaving out the canonical couples; obviously cuddling is a given there.)


Jack-Peggy-Daniel triad - Aside from Peggy and Daniel in an actual relationship, these are not People Who Cuddle except under the most dire life-and-death circumstances. Nearly dying of hypothermia involves being briskly cuddled to health by Peggy and then dropped as soon as humanly possible.

Steve Harrington and Robin - OF COURSE THEY DO. It is impossible not to imagine them tangled up on the couch watching TV. Possibly with two or three middle schoolers draped over them as well.

Danny and Ward - Well, I'm sure Danny probably does, on the flimsiest of pretexts: he misses Colleen, Ward just casually mentioned some appallingly depressing fact about his childhood, etc. ("Get off, Danny, we're in public. God.") Also, traveling together very likely involves sharing beds/tents at some point and Ward invariably wakes up with Danny wrapped around him like human cling wrap.

The Guardians of the Galaxy - There is NO WAY they do not sleep in a big cuddle pile. The only one who might conceivably object to this is Peter, but this probably just results in Drax laying on him. (Rocket is the sort of personality who wouldn't do this if he were a human, but, counterpoint: he's a raccoon.)

Wiseguy - I would say no one on this show is the cuddling type if there wasn't literal, actual CANONICAL COUCH CUDDLING, so ... yeah. I expect camping with Vinnie inevitably results in waking up covered in sleeping Vinnie in much the same way as camping with Danny does.
