Me Just Now Realizing Mark Was Probably Even More Okay With The Slightly Slow Young Boy Talking To Him

Me just now realizing Mark was probably even more okay with the slightly slow young boy talking to him because he smells like his ex mate 🫣

Also not to mention he was probably only at the diner to watch out the window and see if he could spot him inside the shop. 🫣🫣🫣

Okay but imagine a random off day, whether it be a holiday or a Sunday Gordos off and the days he’s off he lets himself sleep in (it’s really the latest is like 9 probs) and he wakes up, and this is after they live together. And Marks awake and he’s just watching him and Gordos like “dude that’s freaky don’t do that i will still harm you.” But that changes nothing on Marks face. He’s still smiling so eventually Gordo’s like “okay WHAT.”

And Mark just all shy and shrug and is like “you smell like me.”

And Gordo’s like “get out of the bed right now.” But he doesn’t mean it and Mark knows it and hed just wrap his arms around him, shoving his nose in his neck saying,

“Underneath it’s still dirt and leaves and rain but on top it’s me; and mine; and us.”

And Gordo’s so content with the touching but he fights back for a minute like “you and your possessiveness, overgrown dog, stop sniffing me like I’m your dinner.” But then he just stops and relaxes cause truth is he doesn’t want to fight Marks strength.

I just had a thought…. Maybe Mark wasn’t necessarily just like “oh it’s Gordo” on Marks shirt because at THAT point, he would have had no idea that Marty had passed and Gordo took over the shop.

So instead of like “aww omg you smell like Gordo” it’s more of a “Gordo took over it and made it his 🥺” because Mark might be one of the only people who knows how much Gordo loves cars. (Since Thomas is lowkey a dick)

The Wolves convincing Ox Santa Clause is real:

A thread: so it starts off innocently enough, it’s Christmas and Robbie and the other guys at the shop are simply talking shop and Christmas comes up.

Gordo reminds him that anything that he can think of is real out there… is real.

Ox doesn’t believe him

Carter and Kelly get involved and then Joe

Ox thinks Mark won’t lie, except Mark says he’s real to.

The Bennett Brothers now vow to make this the best Christmas Ox has ever had, with presents from “Mr. s” for everyone, Mark becomes their middle man and says ‘Santa’s real but only if you believe’ and if we’re being honest Ox got shit all his early life so he didn’t believe.

Then Christmas Day, “Santa came” and the childlike innocent way Ox’s eyes light up, though his heart is still ever so steady, the brothers realize they made a mistake and now have to do this every year.

Because to Ox, Santa is real.

Elizabeth doesn’t step in because she doesn’t see any harm in it, she’s never seen her boys get so excited about Christmas before this.

One Year of Zack: Day Seven

He was a nervous wreck, so much his palms were sweaty and he had to wipe them on his pants to try and get ahold of himself. An understanding hand patting his shoulder, he went through this at one point too.
