so basically whilst me and @cosmic-clara / @put-in-writing were catching up, we somehow started talking about how much we adored watching the buzzfeed unsolved videos and that escalated into an hour long conversation about how modern!peter is a SLUT for conspiracy theories/ghost/aliens/and pretty much EVERYTHING SUPERNATURAL RELATED! so without further ado, hereās some headcanons from me and clara!
(aka, the one where peter is like mulder and his s/o is like scully)
peter has always been super interested in supernatural stuff becauseĀ āITāS SO FUCKING COOL BABEā
but his obsession really started when you guys were procrastinating and started watching the buzzfeed unsolved videos
he 100% can and will sit and watch all of them in one sitting
and he always low key freaks out because āTHIS SOUNDS SO FUCKING LEGIT BABEā
Ā āI KNOW THE ILLUMINATI ARENāT REAL BUT LIKEā¦.. what if they can hear me say thatā¦.āĀ āpeter oh my godā
some nights heāll poke you until youāre awake and be likeĀ āsoā¦. do you think that the clintons are apart of the illuminati and are shapeshifting lizard people? it sounds plausibleā āGO TO SLEEP PETERāĀ ābut i kNOW THEY AREā and then he proceeds to delve into a deep theory and youāre just about to lose your shit
(heās tried to get charles to look into the clintons minds to see if he canĀ āreadā their lizard thoughts)
(charles has lost count how many times heās asked)
he ALWAYS nonchalantly will be likeĀ āwow i canāt believe we ACTUALLY didnāt land on the moonā
kurt is literally SHOOK when he hears that
everyone has to stop peter from explaining to kurt a theory that will last four hours
peter almost cried when charles told him that JFK was a mutant
when heās sick heās always likeĀ āi canāt take medicine, itās a ploy by the government to control our minds-āĀ āpeter just take the fucking advil or i wonāt suck your dickā
one of his favorite cases is the zodiac killer!!
(his favorite meme is 100% that ted cruz is the zodiac killer. itās confirmed that peter made posters with ted cruzās face next to the police sketch and hung them around school)
heāll take you to the crime scenes to look for clues because heās 100% convinced that the zodiac is still out there
if itās dark and he hears a noise heāll dash out of there and back to the car LEAVING YOU THERE
āPETER THIS IS HOW PEOPLE DIE JFCā
a lot of your dates consist of UFO hunting!
you take a picnic basket, loads of blankets, and take a truck out to a remote field where heās researched to be a UFO hotspot and you guys sit out there with binoculars
he takes a picture of you wrapped in blankets and looking up at the stars with binoculars and captions itĀ āUFO hunting with my lady. #BEAMUSUPā
HIS FAVORITE SHOW IS THE X-FILES!
you bought him that iconicĀ āi want to believeā poster and he almost cried from happiness
you guys have gone as mulder and scully for halloween multiple times!!
another favorite show of his is supernatural! (āi only like the first three seasons though, thereās way more monsters!ā)
he has a little journal in which while heās watching, heāll take notesĀ ājust in caseā (there are a lot of little doodles in there, too!)
one day while youāre cleaning your room you find salt on the windowsill, and you sigh
your first thought isĀ āpeter u fucking trash canā but then you realize itās kiNDA SWEET? because he just wants to make sure youāre safe 100% of the time
he also buys you deans amulet one year for your birthday because he again, wants you safe all the time
when you kiss him and thank you warren saysĀ āthatās not the only protection sheāll need tonight ;ā)ā
peter has dozens of the temporary demon protection tattoos from the show!
one time you walk in to your room and heās mumbling something in latin and youāre likeĀ ādamn peter back at it again with the freaky ghost shitā SO WHEN YOU ASK HIM WHAT HEāS DOING HEāS JUST LIKEĀ āitās a protection spell!ā
peter is a huge slut for that cheesy ghost adventures show, omfg
his favorite episode is this one
you actually enjoy this one a lot because its HILARIOUS
he would totally act like that around ghosts, omfg
heād here a noise and fucking BOLT
āPETER THE GHOST JUST WANTS TO CHILL ITāS FINEāĀ āNO GHOST EVER JUST WANTS TO CHILL BABEā
peter getās really into ghosts after he takes a picture of you in the mansion one day, and thereās multiple little orbs behind your shoulder
thatās the start of his obsession with finding the ghost in the mansion
āpeter itās a camera flare omfgāĀ āā¦.thatās what it wants us to thinkā¦..ā
you buy him a cheap ghost detector for his birthday one year as a joke, but he actually getās SUPER excited
he uses it everyday, tbh!
he walks around the halls with it and JFC does the beeping get annoying
one time at like four a.m. it went off and peter freaks out because itās not the usual beeping, itās like erratic beeping
āBABE THE GHOST IS HERE OH MY GODāĀ āpeter it probably just needs new batteriesā ābut bABEā āgo to sleep before i start screamingā
charles has to confront him one day becauseĀ āyouāre scaring the younger studentsā
āyou know what should scare them more? GHOSTS, you should be thanking me that iām patrollingāĀ āpeter, that is a childs toy.ā
PETER MAXIMOFF IS IN LOVE WITH STRANGER THINGS
he really is protective of the boys because he relates to them hella, especially when they get bullied
so you just let him cuddle into you as you watch!!
DONāT IMAGINE PETER DRESSING UP IN A GHOSTBUSTERS SUIT!
HEāLL GO AROUND WITH HIS GHOST DETECTOR SAYINGĀ āWHO YA GONNA CALL?!ā ANDĀ āI AINāT AFRAID OF NO GHOST!ā
(he asked hank to make him ghost hunting weapons like in ghostbusters)
(hank said no)
he bought you one and threw at you and saidĀ āPUT IT ON BABE WEāRE GOING GHOST HUNTINGā
(youāre both low key attracted to each other in the costumes)
one day while youāre in the hallway you see peter bolt by in his ghostbusters costume and youāre just likeĀ āpeter, back at it againā but then you see 10 little boys in ghostbusters costumes chasing after him!!
PETER STARTS A GHOSTBUSTERS CLUB WITH ALL THE LITTLE BOYS WHO GET PICKED ON BY THE OTHER KIDS
they all make little cardboard ghost detectors so they can follow peter around with them
(itās low key bc peter didnāt want them to mess with actual ghosts shh)
charles wants to call him out on it but the kids are so happy with himĀ
so he lets it happen
one night you go to your shared room only to find peter surrounded by the boys with a light under his chin, telling scary stories
peter gave you the happiest little grin you almost DIED inside
you see the way peter makes them all giggle and laugh and thatās just a reminder of why you love him
somewhere along the way the little girls made you the leader of their female ghostbusters squad!
you and the girls are always in a prank war with the boys!
one day you and peter set up a game where The Squad put sheets over their heads and whoever catches the mostĀ āghostsā wins!
if you catch Kurt you win (bc heās a teleporter!) heās pretty much the golden snitch of the game
SOMEHOW YOU CONVINCED CHARLES TO LET YOU AND PETER TAKE THEM ON ANĀ āEXCURSIONā WHICH INVOLVED PITCHING TENTS IN THE WOODS AND WANDERING AROUND THE WOODS LOOKING FOR UFOS
thereās a lot of laughs and pranks and itās such a good time!!
the boys try to prank the girls in the middle of the night but jokes on them because the girls found out and got them while they were trying to prank them
CONSIDER THIS: HALLOWEEN WITH PETER MAXIMOFF
peterās favorite halloween meme is the fucking skeleton war
he hides a bunch of plastic skeletons around the mansion dressed up in weird costumes
āPETER WHY IS THERE A SKELETON WITH A PLASTIC SWORD IN MY BATHROOMāĀ āthe skeleton warā¦ā¦ itās comingā¦ā¦.āĀ āi hate you so muchā
the whole school loves this fucking meme
thereās a sudden influx of plastic weapons and charles is likeĀ āwhat the fuckā when he confronts the kids, but theyāre just likeĀ āTHE SKELETON WAR PROFESSOR, ITāS COMINGā
this is pretty much what itās like living with peter during this
one of his favorite halloween things to do is a stupid fucking ouija board
he gets the squad to try it one night and this is how it goes
peter asked it one time if it was a friendly ghost, and when it moved toĀ ānoā everyone lost their shit
āDID YOU FUCKING MOVE ITāĀ āI DIDNāT I SWEAR TO GODā
somewhere along the way the board got tossed and you all freak out because you were supposed to sayĀ āgoodbyeā and you didnāt
you all donāt sleep for a week
he also LOVES hitting up haunted houses!!
one time while you guys were having sex he thought of a new theory to the Bermuda triangle conspiracy and he literally got up to write it down
and yOUāRE LAYING THERE LIKEĀ āEXCUSE MEā
āI CANāT FORGET IT BABE IM SORRYāĀ āyou do it one more time weāre stopping and going to sleepāĀ
he does it again so you roll over and heās likeĀ āIāM SORRY PLEASE PLEASEā
ānothing makes me drier than you bringing up aliens peter goodnightā
when you tell the squad all the boys roast him for it
āyou can all thank me when the truth comes out byeā
when you guys watch scary movies heās always pointing out the details
āthatās signs of a poltergeist not a demon smhā
āDID THE DIRECTORS EVEN RESEARCH THIS UGHā
āPOSSESSION DOESNāT EVEN WORK LIKE THATā
IMAGINE IF HE THOUGHT SOMEONE WAS POSSESSED AT THE SCHOOL THOUGH BYE
āWE NEED A PRIEST! KURT WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU BLESS THE SHIT OUT OF THIS PLACEā
after peter bugged charles to get a priest, he has the damn audacity to make a daddy joke
you would be the one sayingĀ āthatās youāre fucking plan?! youāre gonna repeat lines from The Exorcist?!āĀ āwell i would assume they did their fuckin research!āĀ āiTāS A MOVIEāĀ āITāS A MANUAL, A FUCKIN MANUALā
one summer you guys hit up every UFO hotspot, roswell, area 51, and the most haunted locations in america (and you maybe even go international!)
one time though you guys got fucking arrested for climbing into a restricted area
charles sent alex to bail you guys out
āwhy the fuck would you try to break into area 51 jfc i donāt get paid enough for this shit
(exasperated dad!alex summers is real af)
another time peter wanted to go hunt for bigfoot so he took you up to oregon to go camping
so you told scott and he bought a bigfoot costume and followed you guys without peter knowing
when you guys are making a fire you tell scott to make some ruckus so when the noise of a twig breaking peter nearly loses his shit
he grabs his camera and drags you into the woods and tHERE IS SCOTT IS HIS SHITTY COSTUME AND PETER NEARLY CRIES FROM HAPPINESS
when you guys get back peter is showing off his pictures with excitement and it makes your heart melt a little because heās so happy, so you and scott decide to keep it a secret
but scott let it slip one day!!! :(((
so you took peter again
but this time when there was something spooky in the woods he was likeĀ ālmao okay scott come onā and youāre like panicking becauseĀ āITāS NOT SCOTT PETER OHMY OGā
long story short you come home with blurry pictures of something that looks A LOT like bigfoot
even though youāre a skeptic and heās a believer, you still love your big nerd of a boyfriend and will always come with him to his ghost adventures and UFO hunting
his argument is alwaysĀ ābabe, if mutants can exist, so can the supernatural!
bye i love peter and his huge dorky supernatural loving ass
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH THIS IS BEAUTIFUL and honestly Peter, if you watch supernatural YOU SHOULD KNOW HOW TO EXERCISE A DAMN DEMON BABE
