Wttt Washington - Tumblr Posts

Washington just strikes me as the guy to be involved in 17 different petty internet fueds at any given time he's like "sorry i can't hang out i have to be on facebook for when Barbara responds to my comment calling her grandsons piano recital underwhelming. why? ok so like six months ago she vague posted about my crochet project and--"

hi guys sorry for the lack of art lately (I’ve been making a bunch of bracelets lately and ive been distracted.)

here’s Washington as an apology

Pool Side

Gov watches his family have fun at the pool, glad there are no injuries — this time, at least.

Idea from @fl0w3rg0at! Thank you, Lovely!

———————————————————————

The Statehouse is massive, that much is known. Not as large or as strange as The Jones Residence, but massive and strange in its own right.

The properties expand for miles, more than enough space for everyone to have their own thing, their own hobbies, without encroaching on others’ space.

Sometimes there are disagreements on times and places, usually solved within a few hours, but there is one thing they never disagree on.

The pool on the back patio.

Absolutely massive, large enough for all of them times three, with plenty of deck chairs and grills and tables to satisfy all of them and more.

It’s a beautiful day, not too hot nor too cold, the perfect temperature for them all to be happy with it; spending the afternoon and evening by the pool.

Some spend most of the time actually in the water, others amongst the grills and tables.

Gov reclined on a deck chair, in buckled sandals– often called his ‘Dad Shoes’, but little Kayleigh had been teaching Paisley to paint nails, so Gov was going to show off their work (he was more than happy to be their test subject, and they did great [do not say anything to the contrary]) – and deep blue, knee-length swim trunks with a black waistband. A white, thin, short sleeve button down rested open over his chest, his compression top and his brace underneath it. DC, one of his eldest children- Daniel-, passed out asleep in the chair next to him, in cargo shorts and a similar shirt with far too many colors for Gov’s eyes. The boy’s crutch settled on the deck table between them. He’s been healing well, after waking up from his comatose state but a few months ago.

Sunglasses rest firmly on Gov’s nose, eyes too sensitive to the bright daylight as he watches his family.

Robin dives and glides through the water like she was meant to be there, dressed in a baby blue two-piece with a white, sheer wrap-skirt that ends a bit above her knees. Popping up every once in a while to splash lightly at the children– and even her own fathers, Massachusetts immediately diving into the water to enact his revenge.

Some of the cities were there, Nicki being all too willing to let his little sister climb his shoulders to avoid their father, while Grayson and Phillip - Philadelphia- gleefully charge at Mass through the water.

There’s yelling and laughter as more of the swimmers join in on the fight.

But Robin is a stone-cold woman, and it’s with that grin he knows and loves– not the same one she wore when dealing with… certain people but one she wore when being an Annoyance On Purpose, very similar but not the same, closer to the she wore when she was being Feral On Purpose– she wraps herself around Nicki’s torso and lets her weight fall back.

The city yells out in betrayal, but is cut off the moment they breach the water, Robin unwinding herself and darting off under the reflective surface.

“YOU LITTLE SHIT–!” Nicki gasps as he burts back up into the air, water dripping down his face as he pushes his hair back. “GET BACK HERE–!”

Ivan stands closer to the edge of the pool, and Robin would never betray her baby the way she would her siblings or parents. The largest State, and the largest of them there, aids his mother by standing in front of her.

“ROBIN!-”

“You touch mah baby boy, Nicki, and Imma turn yer knee caps intah chowdah!” she points threateningly at the City, who scowls at her. She’s grinning, still, looking around Ivan straight at her brother.

“Get ovah here and fight me, coward!”

“I’ll give ya a right scrap, ya mutt–!”

Gov snorts as Robin dives into Nicki with a screech, sending them both back under the water and splashing several onlookers.

He snorts as more people dive into the water, devolving into splash fights and playful yelling as he watches from his seat. He watches it go on for nearly 30 minutes, enjoying the time he has to simply observe and relax.

He’s so caught up in the watching, the adoration he feels for his loved ones filling his heart completely and utterly, that he hardly notices when someone makes their way closer to him. It’s not until something– someone– presses into his side with a muffled murmur that he notices.

Ivan had climbed out of the water, likely that the amount of people had grown distressing. It’s moments like this that Gov is glad to have thought to order custom chairs, the regular deck chairs most humans buy would not have held the weight of both him and his son.

He settles, placing an arm around the boy's shoulders as Ivan buries his face into Gov’s side. It’s not uncommon for any one of his children to grow distressed or overstimulated by their environment, but Ivan had always been one with the lowest tolerance. Gov thinks it must be from the sheer isolation the lands of Alaska have, but it could simply be Ivan himself.

The splashing dies down, the yelling quiets into normal outside volume, but the jumping and dragging under water does not cease, though most grow content to simply saddle up at the pool sides or allow themselves to float among the expanse of water.

He spies Robin climbing out of the pool, grinning wide and smug at Nicki. He doesn’t entirely know what the goal of their impromptu brawl was, but it was clear she had won something.

What that something was, he had no idea, and doubted he ever would. His dear Infinity’s relationship with her siblings was different from Gov’s relationship with his own; not by much, but enough for both of them to be a bit confused by each others interactions with their family members. His relations with his parents cities, his siblings, had been morphed by how ill and weak he was when he finally became Congress. His Robin’s relations had been changed from how feral and how she unapologetically caused trouble for anyone who annoyed her– or himself, for that matter, she’s always been the protective sort.

But that was alright, they rarely needed to know; but they would always explain it to each other if asked.

He has no idea why humans divorce or leave their partners so regularly, unless it’s physically or mentally harmful. They really should learn to communicate with their partners. And their children, for that matter– though he hardly has a leg to stand on in that matter, he’s been working on it.

“You look a little lost, dear.” his wifes’ voice is amused as she stands next to his seat, hands on her hips, “Have you wandered far?”

“Not at all,” he hums, curling his arm tighter around the largest, yet one of his youngest, of his children. “Simply observing, love.”

She just hums, still amused, taking up residence in the chair on his other side, and it isn’t long before another State, either overwhelmed or simply too tired to find anywhere else– not that either of them would complain– finds their way into her lap. Sebastian had never done well with warm weather.

Or cold weather.

Or any weather different from his States usual rainy days, to be fair.

They sit for a moment— the grilling should be done soon. Then they could all eat before the sun set entirely. Gov doesn’t know how long the States and Cities would continue to party, but he, Robin, and the few Departments that could make it had to wake up early.

But for now, they watch their family enjoy themselves, almost all together for the first time in decades.

He’s…missed it. Missed being around his kids and his parents and his uncles.

Sure, they’ve been around each other near constantly— but he’s always working. He’s missed just being there, watching them all have their fun and keeping them safe.

He feels a hand rest on his arm, but he doesn’t jump. He shifts his gaze to his dear Robin, who had plucked a set of sunglasses that match his own from thin air, and he knows her eyes are curious and concerned beneath the tinted lenses. One of her eyebrows raised as she runs her other hand through Sebastian’s hair.

He can hear, can feel the silent question.

Are you okay?

He smiles back at her, and it seems to appease her, as she settles back into the cushioning of the deck chair.

Gov settled back into his own seat as well, taking a glance at the still sleeping Daniel, the boy easily grows exhausted, much like he did for a while after the Civil War— hell, even for a while during and after the Revolution.

He hums, clutching Ivan closer to himself as his gaze finally returns to the chaos in the pool and the patio surrounding it.

He hasn’t had a chance to properly relax like this in…he doesn’t remember how long. Even in the 20’s they were still working, just not on Government work. The only times he’s been completely free of work had been times he was bedridden.

…

It’s nice.

Ok someone help me or I'll go completely mad.

I remember there was a video of the Western states waiting for DC/Gov to announce whether it's a boy or a girl (el niño or la niña). I can't remember which one it was but California was, as always, f*cked. If this video exists or was completely made up, someone send me the link right away.

I also need it for research purposes.

Edit: thank you kind strangers for rb and helping me find answers. Anyways, back to my research paper

Fist off sorry for the big wall of text coming up, I just had to get this out of head so I can finally sleep and not keep thinking about this -v-

Okay so we know that the states do have kids and partners but like do their family's know?? Do the in laws know? Or it just one big family secrets that only a few know about, what are they might to do when their kids and wife get older but they never age??

Won't people question that? Would it be harder for them to date because they have to worry about telling the wrong person that they are a state? So the states make a game out of it to see who can get the most people trying to expose them in the past before Gov gives up all together and just let's the public know? Dose the other parts of the government even know? From the welcome to the table or seems like at lest some of them do, but what about the people in chairs that switched out ever election, some of those people are bound to slip up at some point or get made they were kick out and tell the public! Would the public even believe them at that point???

Or ever, or would it turn into another  conspiracy, OoOo states are alive and the government is trying to bind it from you OoOo, if you told someone would they even believe you? Or would they just think your crazy and start spreading that as a story of a wired guy you met, what about after the government comes out and says it's true? Would anyone believe them???

Would they have to show pictures of them when they were younger to prove, yeah I was a live for a while haha, which being me to another thought, do they have human names? And if so do they change it, if so after how long? Surly they would have to because they would be found out pretty easily if they did, but that would also be a lot of work to change everything so I'm not sure, also if they have banks and stuff would they have to let more people in, or do they just switch banks a lot so they ces keep using the same info?

What if they tell someone but the break up/divorce  have they made special government workers to "take care of them" before they can spared the word, or just make them sound as insane as possible so no one will ever believe them.

Another thing is are their family okay with them living on the state house? Like at all??

Did Gov even clear it with the states first or no? Dude they have kids to rise and your taking them away to lie with other states!

And for what for them to get alone? Who give a shot about that let their kids have a father figure Their life, also how would you even explain that to your kids? I'm sorry I have to leave you guys my work is forcing me to live with my coworkers until we can fet along :D

Also how do their families feel about them possibly having countless children and wife's that died before hand like in the 1800?

Who know how many states have kids from back then, has their Statehood ever been exposed because their family tree would be fucked? Like hey wait why do all theses people lead back to someone very much alive to this day?

What about their kids having kids? Do those kids know about the family secret or are they clueless about it? Are their states just filled up with their family members at this point?

Like hey we have the same great grandpa and look his still alive to this day making more off springs to make his state less empty 😌 surely the government would have to be working overtime just to cover everything up unless everyone already knows about it for some reason, that also bags the question would their people be okay will the state making all the calls since their "human" at lest in a way, would they think the state is making all the calls or the people they elected into the government?

Also what would they do if their kids uses yeah well my dad is the sate of Washington? Could the states use their  positions to kick out families and people they don't like?

Ie a guy bumped into you without saying sorry, welp guess you'll never get a job here again! Nore will anyone in you family either! So it's this tired family line that can't get a job in New York after someone killed his pigeon, his tracking their entire family line to make sure none of them can sneak back into the state no matter how many years have gone by.

Anyways this is all to say them having wife's and kids create a lot of questions I would love to see Ben's opinion on

You know what. Scratch that, Fuck you Ben for making me stay up thinking about fictional anatomical states , because now I just keep coming back to add more stuff!

But on the mean time thank you for coming to another late night rambling with Thunder <3
