The most amount of Headcannons I've ever wrote for a single character!!! Guess my favourite Ghostbuster lol, I love Egon 😂😅

• He's a very neutral individual overall, he can easily be misunderstood and seen as rude or uninterested but he does care a lot.
• I feel like the most likely situation for him finding out about your regression is if you didn't tell him yourself is that he found out during a particularly long night in the lab. You being tired had regressed and he had his suspicions from there.
• Him becoming your Caregiver was never something actually verbalised, more just a responsibility he was happy to take on and the two of you went from there.
• Egon is big on praise, he knows he's not always the most affectionate (although that's not to say never) however he doesn't want you to believe he doesn't care, he makes sure you know how proud of you he is and how amazing you are doing!!!
• I think he'd have a tangle toy in his desk (if you guys are at the fire station) or in his pocket if elsewhere for you (and himself)
• Watching TV (movies or shows) are a fun activity for the two of you as it doesn't require talking but you guys can if you want to. - he also enjoys reading be that him reading to you, you reading to him or the two of you individually reading in the same area <333
• Egon really enjoys being your Caregiver. It allows for him to de-stress from his very chaotic job/life.
• As I previously said he really enjoys reading, his voice is very calming and it isn't out of the ordinary for you to fall asleep listening to him read or just talk about something he's currently analysing.
• He got the two of you small matching rabbit plushies. You absolutely love yours, keeping it with you always. (Egon also always has his own on him, it's in his pocket. It got slimed once whilst he was on the job.. he was not happy in the process of it being cleaned, no one knew why you were the only one he wasn't being subtly (not subtle at all) grumpy towards)
• He often lets you sit with him whilst he works on experiments, he has a box of crayons for you to use - or you can watch him work on his experiments.
• No touching anything to do with an experiment. A joke that Peter came up with was "if you can't pronounce it, don't touch it" ..that motto ended up sticking around for everyone in the end. It became a rule for all of them, it not surprisingly stopped quite a few accidents.
• He has let you use his jacket as a blanket.
• He really likes doing little things for you such as tying your shoe laces or brushing your hair.
• With how popular the Ghostbusters became lots of merchandise was made by different people. Egon ends up surprising you with a little Ghostbusters badge.
• You gained the nickname of "Mini Ghostbuster"
• He is terrible at going to sleep, he is normally quite good at making sure you're okay and getting the stuff you need to thrive (an actual healthy amount of hours of sleep.)
• Speaking of making sure you're safe he is very protective over you, even if people don't realise. He's extremely aware of how dangerous his job is and is not willing to let anything happen to you.
• He would have a reward chart for you!!!
• He does have a habit of sometimes over complicating things. If he ends up confusing you he will try to explain in a better way for you to understand.
• He likes telling jokes but he has quite a dry sense of humour. He tries- He's not at all offended though if you don't understand or find those jokes funny. He ends up making it into a sort of game to see who has the best jokes. You win. Everytime.
• His go to for a babysitter is Janine. He trusts the others but Janine is typically away from well, most of the ghost danger and so when Egon is out busting ghosts you get to stay with her which is always fun. She would so spoil you!!!
• ^ She would make a sensory bin that's under her desk, it has a bunch of fidget toys, and other little toys to keep you entertained. It also has a sensory cube that she made you.
• I think that he'd actually be pretty bad with keeping you from eating too many sweets. He has a sweet tooth- 😂 marshmallows though.. they are funnily enough off the table.. along with jelly/jello...😬
• He would enjoy doing those kids science kits with you!!!
• ^ Enjoys learning related games for you. Think like numbered or lettered wooden blocks.
• He doesn't share food with anyone that isn't you by the way- :D
• I think he'd be really good at getting you to settle down for bed.
• He got you some chewalry. He makes sure you have it on you always. (If you end up forgetting it's okay because he didn't and he's got it in his pocket for you!!!)
• I cannot see him being able to cook - at least not well 💀
• When he does act affectionately it's normally away from anyone else. He gives amazing hugs 🫂 — His cuddles are so comforting!!! <333
• ^ In public/around others he doesn't show as much physical affection, although he isn't against it if you'd like it. He typically sticks to linking pinky fingers!!!
• ^ He likes ruffling your hair, if you end up huffing at him because he "ruined your hair" he will find it even more amusing.
• Forehead kisses <333
• He's good at comforting you when it comes to nightmares.
• Documentaries are often left playing in the background.
• You could so convince him to have a tea party with you!!!
• He'd be so patient with you!!!
• I don't think he'd be overly strict. He'd be strict enough to keep you safe but other than that- pretty sure Peter and Ray get told off by him (a lot) more than you would- 😂

• Out of all the guys, Peters’s the best at playing pretend. Making things up comes very naturally to him, and he’s always happy to go along with your games.
• He loves to tease you and he does it all the time; but he also gives you plenty of genuine compliments.
• He’s an “I’m going to count to three” caregiver, but he rarely actually gets to three.
• He loves to perform the tablecloth trick for you, despite being… well, less than great at it.
• The man has very little ego. He doesn’t care how silly he looks or how much attention he’s calling to himself, he will do whatever it takes to make you laugh.

• He gets so excited to play with you, and he pours his heart and soul into it. He wants you to always be having fun.
• He makes sure you have your own personal corner in the firehouse where you can hang out while they’re on calls.
• He likes to tell you about all the different types and subtypes of ghosts; how to recognize them, how to handle them, etc.
• (Sometimes he forgets he’s talking to a kiddo and you need to ask him to explain things more simply. He’s always happy to do so.)
• Whatever you find interesting, no matter how odd or unusual, he wants to hear you talk about it.

• He’s the one who’s most concerned about things being safe and child-friendly, though he can be persuaded to let you take some risks.
• As the main tech guy for the group, he’s fully capable of building some neat (and practical) toys for you.
• He is SO bad at playing pretend. He’s incredibly stiff and monotone, and he constantly looks like an actor who forgot his lines. It’s hilarious.
• He likes to show off his fungus collection, and he’s eager to see any collections you have.
• He loves to tell you the bizarre and paranormal local histories. “You think that building looks creepy? Well, it is, because in the eighteen hundreds…” He needs minimal prompting to go on a spooky tangent.

• He’s the most level-headed of the group, and the most traditional caregiver; he makes sure you eat regularly, brush your teeth, all that good stuff.
• (He’s also the most likely to actually punish you for misbehavior. Sorry, but puppy eyes don’t work on him!)
• He loves to drive you around the city in Ecto-1, showing you all the coolest places.
• If you like them, he’ll read you Bible stories before you go to bed.
• He’s a major hype man; he knows how awesome and capable you are, and he’s determined to make sure you know it too.

• the fundraiser collected over $10,000 in its first 40 minutes
• the announcement that the fundraiser would close, at $21,000 and 215% of its goal, was made on January 14th, the 100th day of genocide in gaza
• during the fundraiser's active period, fans of the show were discouraged from talking about or linking to fundraising efforts for palestine, for various reasons including 'to avoid confusing people', 'to avoid guilt tripping fans of the show', and 'because our goal is actually achievable'
• fans behind the campaign were encouraged to flood the comments on HBO's social media, including a documentary about a real black woman who lived and worked through the civil rights movement, which was highlighted for Martin Luther King jr. day.
• organisers of the fundraiser knowingly chose to continue pushing fans to flood social media with show related hashtags throughout the global strike for Palestine, which specifically called for social media to cease. this was justified within the community as falling under 'necessary' social media activity.
• while all this was going on, supporters of the campaign were also busy flooding the inboxes of Palestinian bloggers who had expressed discomfort with their actions. you're quick to accuse me of using gaza as a 'bludgeon' as if the subject is unrelated to the context of this campaign, meanwhile ofmd fans were invoking real people's dead family members by name to harrass them into silence. as far as I know this is the only fandom to have added 'targeted harrassment against people affected by ongoing genocide' to the rap sheet.
• to your point, around half of the raised funds were spent on purchasing some of the most expensive ad space in the world (a billboard on times square and...a plane with a banner?? okay)
• the fan community were invited to decide how the other half of the money was directed to charities. this created an uproar as some fans took exception to their money being spent on anything but more billboards. some people left the fandom over their money being given to charity.

• The fundraiser organisers spent the $10,000 on the ads the organisers they said they would spend it on
• The surplus money from the fundraiser was donated to various charities
• Nobody who donated money to that fundraiser got scammed
• You feel powerless in the face of an immense tragedy and have decided to lash out at other people who are also powerless in the face of that tragedy by falsely accusing them of being a bunch of scammers, but hey, you get to feel the righteous and addictive fury and dopamine hits from reblogs from people agreeing with you and cheering you on.
