aronix:
Here’s a combination of me and broski’s headcanon about Jake and Dirk:
So Dirk always thought that Jake was this prissy British kid who stuffed too many crumpets into his mouth and is making all this island stuff up.
That is until Jade sent Jake a webcam for his 13th birthday and they saw each other for the first time. And that’s how it all started.
Dirk: Uh, hi, English.
Jake: Hey Strider! *double pistols and a wink*
In which Dirk immediately closed his webcam and blushed like an anime character.
Later on, Roxy was going all.
Roxy: great to see jake irl istn it
*isst
*isnt
Dirk: Um. Yes, very great.
Roxy: i knwe itttttt
Dirk could not talk to Jake in pesterchum properly for weeks after that.
Eventually it led to “Goddammit English stop trying to send me webcam calls.”
Jake: Roxy tell me honestly.
Am i
ugly?
Roxy: WAAAASHHSHHT
NO
youre a total sudt
*sdtu
*stud
who told you that
ur ugly
im gonna thowr my martini in his fce
And Roxy just went around talking about Jake’s webcam and making everyone awkward, including the AR.
here’s a new one just for tumblr
jake learned his english from all the old books in the mansion’s library
including a copy of colonel sassacre’s
jade tried to keep her library up-to-date but couldn’t bring herself to throw out the old books, which jake finds more interesting anyway. jade has given up sending him recent books for his birthdays.
the problem is living alone on an island jake doesn’t know the correct pronounciation of all those fancy words and he just sort of gallivants around putting stresses in all the wrong places
being jake of course he makes it sound attractive
dirk tried to correct him but couldn’t bring himself to do it after a while because watching jake try to pronounce words while frowning was too adorable
