I’m supposed to be cleaning the kitchen right now but instead I wanna talk about Kayleigh Day headcanons
Thick Irish accent
I mean thick, like, thicc thick, like, strong
I’m thinking something between Belfast and Dublin
Wymack didn’t understand anything she said the first time they met
Pretty happy-go-lucky, is here for a good time and a long time
Super athletic, had basically been living the Jock Life all her life
Assertive AF and got a reputation for being a “bitch” for it because men can’t handle shit
Would indulge in a lot of banter when she was teaching Wymack Exy
Also got waaaay too into it
Wymack: This is lacrosse for maniacs!Kayleigh: AMERICAN FOOTBALL IS RUGBY FOR PUSSIES, DAVID, WHATS YOUR POINT????
Don’t challenge her to arm wrestling oh dear god please don’t do that
So bad at asking for help. Terrible. The worst. Convinced she could do anything and everything on her own
Speaking of!!!!
Before Kevin, Exy was her favourite thing. It’s now joint 2nd with coffee
Liked the name ‘Kevin’ years before she got pregnant
Never forced Exy onto him, he just loved his mum and wanted to play her sport
Coach Moriyama would try to get her to get Kevin in a specific mindset and she’d be all “what, no. No, I’m not teaching my son that winning is everything, that’s not healthy.”
Moriyama was always the one thinking of how to be the best, Kayleigh just wanted to be.
She would sometimes think about telling Wymack the truth, late at night while staring at the ceiling. She’d always decide it was too late and she was doing fine, anyway
That doesn’t mean guilt didn’t eat at her, she just shoved it down deep as she could and ignored it
Would burst into tears under too much stress, but would leave the room so no one knew
Loved Wymack. Loved Kevin.
Was really looking forward to watching Kevin grow up
