I Am Unsure If I Posted This... But It Was On My Ao3 So I Decided To Post It Here Too. Hope You Enjoy - Tumblr Posts
Headcanon: Their S/O giving them the silent treatment.
Any warning: Some swearing.
A/N: Just another headcanon.
DIRECTOR ALTO CLEF: At first Clef is confused about what they are upset about. Like he is lost at what he did. What did he do? Was it something he said? Most likely this dude has no filter.
They are going to have to tell him what they are upset about because he generally has no clue. This morning alone he did like fifty things that has half of the scientific department and ethics committee angry at him. So, list off what he did wrong or what he said. But realistically speaking he wouldn’t pay it much mind either. He is just going to continue doing this thing until they are talking to him again.
But be warned when they do finally come around, there will be a cocky smirk on his face as he looks up from his computer. Most likely would make a snarky remark about how they are finally speaking to him again and over their “immature act.”
DIRECTOR JACK BRIGHT: Bright is likely to notice the second his S/O is upset with him. He just knows them well and knows when they are pissed off. Most likely Bright did something regarding an SCP and almost got himself and other researchers killed. (Even though it may not seem like it, it wasn’t his intention to do that. He doesn’t believe in unnecessarily costing people their lives). So, he understands why they would be upset and would give them a few hours to cool off. The last thing he wants is to piss them off even more. And he doesn’t want to cause a scene at work and prefers not to ruin their reputation at work as well. So, he would give them their space. Additionally, he wouldn’t want to smother them so he lets off for a bit. But once he notices that the silent treatment is continuing and they aren’t speaking to him he becomes internally irritated.
Like are they really going to start ignoring him now? Just like that? To him, he sees it as immature and a childish tactic, to be honest. Now Bright may not seem like the most mature person with all the shit he does in the Foundation. Most people would think he is incapable of being mature and serious. But when it comes to his relationship, family, close friends, and how he deals with things internally. It is serious to him. He doesn’t play around with that. He begins to think to himself like: why can’t they just come and speak with them like adults? Why are they just avoiding him and the situation? He knows he should at least try to talk to them and he does. But after getting no replies from them, he becomes visibly annoyed and walks away. If they want to continue acting that way then that is fine but he wouldn’t participate any longer… When they are ready to talk like adults he will be in his office… And when they do finally come around and speak with Bright. His usual (yet rare) soft smile he has whenever he sees them wouldn’t be visible. He would have a stoic expression on his face and would let them speak but… would also voice his opinion when they are done. He will let them know that he doesn’t entertain the whole silent treatment thing although he will say he understands why they did it. And would promise not to aggressively endanger his life or others the next time during an experiment.
DOCTOR SIMON GLASS: Oh NO! Don’t do this to him! He would also feel irritated since he sees it as an immature act but wouldn't overreact. Like yeah, the fight must have really upset them if they are giving him the silent treatment. So, he would just give them space to cool down. And also, having his S/O give him the silent treatment would make him feel a bit anxious because he generally hates fights. Makes him feel bad too... but he knows that they are going to come around sooner or later.
DOCTOR BEN KONDRAKI: Oh, you wanna give him the silent treatment? Fine! He has work to do anyway so who cares… He does a lot. But once he sees they aren’t coming to his office at all or haven’t called him he becomes irritated. Like what the fuck?! Are they just going to ignore him that easily?! He would literally march to their office. He doesn’t care. And confront them about it. Just tell him what is going on so, he can try to fix it and make things better….
DOCTOR CHARLES GEARS ("COG"): Gears is another one who would know when his S/O is angry with him. He is intuitive like that. He would first try speaking with them. He knows it is a bit futile but he still tries. And when they don't give a reply. He just sighs to himself and walks away. I mean what else can he do? They are angry and refuse to communicate with him. What is he supposed to do? Follow them around like a lost puppy? Trying to coax them into speaking with him? No. The latter would most likely just anger them even more. And he isn't going to make himself look like a fool just so they can speak to him again. He would give them space and wouldn't think much about it further. When they are ready to talk then they already know where to find him.
SCP-073 (Cain): He is slightly annoyed at them for giving him the silent treatment but knows to not let it affect him that much. He knows they are just angry and need to cool down. So, he would let them cool down. And wouldn't want to upset them more by trying to make them talk. So, he would just stay away for a while before choosing to approach them.
SCP-076 (Able): He is infuriated. He doesn't like being ignored. He would take that as an act of being disrespected and would lose his temper quickly… And it wouldn't end well… Don't do it…
