"Send me a Hellcheer request": Chrissy knows the origins of Eddie's scars, but he doesn't know hers. So he learns each one.
“And that one?”
“Hm?” Chrissy is prodding a light patch of hair that grows differently to the rest of it. Not in spirals and waves but weird tufts, a shade or three (okay, fuck you, he’s going gray at twenty one, shut up) lighter than his natural colour. “Ah, yeah. That was dear old dad with his monkey wrench. I don’t think he meant to hit me, I just got between him and the dog.”
“Your dad sounds awful.”
“There’s a reason we don’t have family reunions much.” He flops back against the floor and closes his eyes for a second and just relishes this. What he has. Chrissy in his arms and weed smoke heavy around them and the sun brightly burning hot. He loves midsummer. He loves how colourful everything gets. Even the dead grass looks like honey and woven gold. “What about yours?”
“My what?”
“C’mon, princess, are you going to lay there and tell me you’ve never had a tumble from the top of the pyramid so bad you got a little roughed up?”
“Oh. Well, yeah, but…” Eddie opens an eye to smile at her. To slide his fingertips from her chin to the shell of her ear, to really really really look at her.
“You don’t have to tell me about anything you don’t want to.” She sits up anyway and twists around on herself to lift the back of her shirt, and show him a hooklike curve of puckered flesh above her hip.
“I fell off a horse when I was four and broke the bone. I had to wear one of those diaper looking casts for months and I wasn’t allowed to go swimming in the summer.” The scarring is warm when he touches it, and he holds his hair away from his face in one fist when he leans down to kiss it.
“Braver than I am, horses are fucking freaky.”
“Oh, you just don’t like it when things are taller than you. That's why you surround yourself with halflings, kids and Steve.”
“I also hang out with Robin.”
“She’s a halfling with me. So’s Nancy.”
“Yeah, you’re a freak, alright.” It’s good to see her laughing, though. Even if the scar on her back isn’t what he was talking about. He knows there are others hidden on her skin which weren’t accidents at all, but this golden afternoon isn’t the time for those stories. He doesn’t want to taint this place by forcing answers he doesn’t need from her. All that matters is that he hasn’t seen a fresh one in a year. All that matters is that when they fall into bed at night all the lines she’s made on herself are ancient and silvery and from old battles instead of new ones. All that matters, to Eddie Munson in early July with the bees abuzz around him and butterflies kissing the cornflowers, is that Chrissy tips her face into his and let’s him breathe her in.

Okay hear me out!!
HeiShino { Heizou x Shinobu }
They both look cute together. Because if you think of it, the pairing would work well cause their interaction from their voice line seems to be a positive one. [P.S. This is just out of the blue, I wanted to say if they were ever to be a potential pairing. It be an interesting and an adorable one.] But even if some would disagree, I would say they'd be a good set of working partners in general.
(Plus who doesn't love a lawyer + detective duo having a soccer match 😭✨)
