Hello trio anon! Nice to see you around! Interesting to not see a trio from you, but not unwelcome. Francis x Afton sounds like fun!
Headcanon below!
Both Francis and Dr. Afton are no stranger to working long days at their respective places of work, and both have a bad tendency of missing each other when one gets back to the apartments. As soon as Francis is done with his milk deliveries, Afton's usually gone to his office, and by the time Afton's home from the psychology office, Francis is already out and preparing to deliver the next batch of milk. Sometimes, they get to share a passing glance, a quick hello, maybe a kiss, but their opposite schedules make it difficult for date planning.
In situations like that, you have to get creative, so Francis decided to kickstart a little tradition if you will. One morning before heading out, he left a little note on the fridge for Afton to find. "Mmm...good morning. I hope you have a good day. I know we don't get to talk much but I still love you a lot. I'll catch you later. - Francis"
Afton usually isn't one to get flustered by small gestures, but something about the small note left behind made this nerd's heart beat so fast he forgot what he was doing at that moment in time. After all, he had to reply with his own message. "To my dearest Francis: thank you for the note that you've left on the refrigerator this morning. It was quite nice to hear from you. Read from you? Regardless. I appreciate the sentiment, and my feelings for you reflect yours for me. I look forward to writing to you again. - W. Afton"
After a while, it got to where the entire fridge was covered in notes, so Afton had the idea of swapping them out every week to make sure the surface wasn't completely covered in notes. The ones from weeks past are kept safe in a lockbox.
