#because i've argued that he doesn't THINK of himself as beej because beej is a new nickname from hawk that he's adapting to

Today's gleefully sadistic brainrot is the realization that Hawkeye was not the first person to call BJ Beej, and how incredibly annoyed he must've been to hear Leo use Hawkeye's Special Boy Nickname that now Hawk knows has never completely belonged to him.

#remy stop using one-off characters to sharply influence character development challenge #failed #this is actually great news for me as a writer though because i've always said that i can't use 'beej' in bj's pov unless it's dialogue #because i've argued that he doesn't THINK of himself as beej because beej is a new nickname from hawk that he's adapting to #but now that i know leo uses it without once hearing it be used by hawkeye in front of him this opens up new possibilities #thank god honestly because reusing bj five hundred times on a page is exhausting #anyway i'm rotating hawkeye at rapid speeds #and i'm rotating how bj's heart might skipped a beat when hawk called him that for the first time out of nowhere #i know in my soul that he hadn't heard it for years #my ramblings
