Klaus And Dave - Tumblr Posts
Can i just say im in love with Klaus Hargreeves?!?! Like, he is so perfectly handsome and has such an awesome vibe. His humor is super dark and he can be seem as irresponsible, but deep inside he is the sweetest guy, you can see he really cares about his brothers and his affection for Dave is also lovely. Im sooo obsessed
dave: i need you
klaus: for?
dave: -ever.
klaus: *voice cracking* oH.
Thank god Dave is dead because if he wasn’t they’d probably have him kissing fucking Diego or some shit at this point
SOMEONE PLEASE WRITE THIS
AU where Klaus dies instead of Dave.
The bullet went just a little bit to the left. It missed Dave. It didn’t miss Klaus.
He didn’t die instantly. He had time to say goodbye to Dave, to thank him. The words “I love you” were still on his lips when he took his last breath. Dave spent the rest of the battle hoping for a bullet to take him next.
He was tasked with packing up Klaus’ things to “send them home.” He had tried to tell the higher ups that Klaus didn’t have a home. (Well he did, but that home was with Dave right here in Vietnam.) Klaus hadn’t been forthcoming with much information about his family, but Dave knew they didn’t get along. From what he’d heard about his father he couldn’t think of anyone less deserving to bury his lovers body.
Klaus didn’t have much. A couple shirts they’d picked out because they were bright enough to blind their eyes, a couple pictures of him and Dave together, his dog tags, and a ratty old coat he’d only seen him wear once.
It’s when Dave took one last glance under the cot he found the briefcase. He remembered, once, Klaus had mentioned a time machine. They’d been drunk. Dave has liked the idea.
He’d never been an imaginative man... that was Klaus’s expertise. Dave liked his feet square on the ground and his eyes set straight ahead. Imagination can’t help you when your belly is empty and your house is freezing because you can’t pay the bills. But his lover was dead. And he thought maybe, just maybe, he could pretend for a moment, that a briefcase really could be a time machine. That maybe it could bring Klaus back.
So he opened it.
Next thing he knew he was sitting on a bus. It was day where it had once been night. The briefcase was in his arms, Klaus’s jacket was slung over his shoulder, and his dog tags were warm against his chest. Everything else was unfamiliar. The world was too loud and bright and he couldn’t quite wrap his head around what the fuck had just happened.
He’d been in Vietnam and now he was not in Vietnam.
He might’ve wandered around the street in a daze for hours if a man with scars across his face and a knife in his hand hadn’t approached him and asked “where the fuck did you get that jacket?”
And that’s how Dave finds out his boyfriend was a time traveling superhero who could talk to the dead.
And that’s how Diego has found out just how much he had failed his brother.
(If anyone wants to continue please go ahead... might write a proper fic about this later though if anyone’s interested.)
PLEASE
If someone wants to make a Klaus Hargreeves/Dave edit to the song Soldier by James TW, I wont stop you
please tag me, i need this
And I remember when I met him, it was so clear that He was the only one for me. We both knew it, right away.
So i was trying to fall asleep when Love Of My Life by Queen started playing and I just had the saddest idea so now you're all ought to hear it.
Imagine a scene in S3 where klaus discovers that he failed again. Dave still died, just not on the A -Shau Valley , and this time they never even met. So Klaus goes to the graveyard where Dave lies, trying so hard to ignore all the ghosts calling for his name. Once he gets to the headstone, he sinks down to his knees and reaches with one hand the cold stone where his lovers name is engraved, while the other goes to wrap around the metal of said lovers dog tags. [All while a slow piano ballad is playing in the background] Klaus then touches his forehead to the stone tablet and just fucking breaks down. We have him profusely apologizing and calling out Dave's name. Here love of my life starts playing . The camera slowly pans out and we cut to Flashbacks of their in Vietnam. Maybe the first I love yous or something like that. Happy moments where we get to see both of them being in love, where we get more of Dave's character and what he is actually like .
