hi! i love ur work and cant stop reading them everyday :3 how do you think the kc li's would propose or react to you proposing?

MARRIAGE Proposals with the KC! li's.

Fluffy headcanons with the love interests when they propose to the reader.

Cws: Killer Chat! spoilers, mayhaps some blood (Ronin™)

Ronin Beaufort

The place: Ronin wouldn't be himself if he picked out a normal spot for a proposal, nah that ain't him. He proposed in the middle of a flower field, but not just any flower field. No. Surrounding the two of you were flowers dipped in blood, white petals soaked crimson, a sweet place turned into a massacre by the very man who was proposing to you. What a romantic.

The ring: A regular ring wouldn't be his style, too boring, too perfect. He needed the ring to be a reminder of him, handmade, gory, something that would just scream Ronin all the way. If he felt particularly silly, he would just bite the ring onto your finger, bite deep and hard, leaving a scar, his teeth forever on your skin. Still, if he wanted to make it something more special and less painful, he could give you a ring made out of someones bones, his victim's bones, fingers maybe, maybe some gore attached to it too, just a cute little piece of jewelry for you. Less creepy? Ah, but that'd be so boring, love. Alright, he'd make it, engrave some skulls into metal, paint it black and red, something imperfect because your love is just like that.

How would the proposal go? Ronin planned the whole day, he took you on a date first, just to build up the romantic value of the day, maybe a lil couple bonding murder, ripping out hearts from the bodies and using them to symbolise the love you two have for each other. Then he'd take you to the spot, prepared night prior to the proposal. He gets down on one knee, tells you how utterly rotten you are, how much he loves your rot, how much he loves you. You say yes (why are you here if you wanted to say no?) and then you kiss, kiss like there's no tomorrow, kiss like the world is about to end, blood in your mouth because he bit your lower lip, blood around you because he killed someone here yesterday. Destruction is the best form of love, destruction is perfection in this rotten romance of yours.

Maria de la Rosa

The place: She wanted it to be perfect, memorable, something for you to look back a few years after your wedding and smile. An intimate place with as little people as possible, it's your moment, no one should disturb your peace. A meadow, a beautiful cave hidden behind a waterfall, a place torn out of a Disney movie, a princess dream in real life.

The ring. Maybe the place is sweet, but it's still The Heartsick Angel we're talking about, the ring can't be too ordinary. A beautiful rose gold ring with a tooth instead of a diamond, something she partially made by hand. A wedding ring on someone's (cut off) finger, similar to the one she gave you for valentine's but this one way more grand. It's sickening and sweet, makes your stomach turn, but also the butterflies come back to life. She's so romantic.

How would the proposal go? She'd clear out her schedule as much as possible, dress up all nicely, favourite outfit, carefully done make up and all that. First it starts innocently, you go to a restaurant, ignore the paparazzi as much as possible, chat about your book and her new video ideas, ones that ae far from the beauty and fashion videos she usually makes. You go for a walk, somehow managed to scare away the paparazzi, she has her ways. Then, when sunset is near, she takes you to a very special place, asks you to close your eyes and allows you to open them once she holds an opened box right in front of you, there's the ring. Yo tear up, say yes, hug her, kiss her. It's sweet, deep, hungry. You want this romance to go for as long as possible, you want to grow old by her side, tease her with cannibal jokes, annoy her with Ronin, love each other forever. A life from a dream by your lover's side.

Valentin Viljoen

The place: He carefully handpicked the place, a private place full of greenery or art or both. A botanic garden he rented out all for only the two of you to enjoy, amidst flowers, trees, so many beautiful colours all around you. Maybe an art gallery, a room with only the best and most romantic pieces of art, but for him, you're the only one worth his gaze to linger on.

The ring: V knew that big didn't mean better, though if he could he would give you a ring with the biggest and most expensive gem on it. He only stopped himself because he didn't want to overwhelm you. V would pick an elegant ring, flowers engraved in it, looking like a metallic vine wrapped around you finger, or something more elegant, small stones all around the band and V.V. engraved on the inside, maybe even some words about the hunt that started your relationship or a date if the words are too long.

How would the proposal go? It's all carefully planned, he travels with you to England, he wants to do it in his home country, somewhere that feels more like home than anything. After a day spent on sight seeing and a dinner, he takes you to a botanic garden, suspiciously empty ("I wanted us to enjoy the beauty of nature alone.") You don't mind, it's not uncommon for him to do something like this. When you're talking about how fascinating the flowers are, you hear him cough to grab your attention, you turn around to see him down on one knee in front of you. He's flustered, but he will fluster you more with his love filled words, he prepared the speech long before he had the engagement ring ready, every word was well thought, he didn't want to worry about adding too little and adding too much wasn't a bad thing. You say yes, shy from all the things he said about you, he cups your face with his hands and kisses you, tender, sweet, promising something more to happen later in the evening. You feel yourself falling more and more in love with every second spent with this man.

Misaki Katsuo

The place: They thought of the place for long, made a whole list of their favourite places and crossed out most of the names right after. In the end she decided on an abandoned amusement park. The same park you burned down their assassin stuff, everything that held even the smallest memory of their previous job. They prepared it for the day, turned on the electricity and lit the whole place up, decorated it with stars, cats and anything that came to mind.

The ring: Misaki can't afford an expensive ring, nor did they want to. They love handmade gifts, they will hand made your wedding bands if they'd want to. The ring is crocheted. Who needs a big diamond when you can have pretty flowers, or any pattern they'd like to make it out to be? They were gathering info on your favorite colours, flowers, anything that'd help them make this project possible. She wanted to give this her all, after all you would wear this for like forever after the proposal!

How would the proposal go? They pick you up from the airport, laugh at how tired you look, embrace you with all the excitement in the world. Misaki would let you rest in her place if you were too lazy to go to a hotel, or more trick you into sleeping in her trailer ("Why go so far when you can cutely sleep in my arms?") The moment you wake up, there's only chaos, they take you around the city, grab food with you, make wishes in a temple with you and then take you to the abandoned amusement park. You're in awe of the place, excited to test the rides that shouldn't work but somehow still are. Once you're on the Ferris wheel and you can see most of Tokyo from the top, they propose, it's awkward, they're shy and anxious if you will actually marry them (of course you will, you love this silly goof too much.) They hug you and hold onto you even after you make it back to their trailer (police probably tried to catch the people who used the theme park but you somehow escaped.) The rest of the night you spent looking at the stars and planning your life with Misaki by your side. Chaotic life with your even more chaotic partner.

Ghoaptober # 4

Prompt: Home

Words: 3100~

TW: Phonetic Scottish Accents (sfw)

This version of Ghoaptober was created by @spadesandshovels

This one did not at all go in the direction I meant it to. I genuinely thought this one was gonna be short, that's my bad for thinking a MacTavish family reunion wouldn't be chaotic.

So a bit of Premise, I have a headcanon that Soap's actual name is Coinneach John MacTavish, but only his family calls him Coinneach.

Enjoy!

Ghost tried to steady his breathing as Johnny led him up to a picturesque country home, then around the side, under a few lines of drying laundry, to the backdoor. Johnny gave the door a cursory rap as he pushed it open, he’d barely gotten one foot over the threshold when delighted cries resounded.

An older woman, maybe fifty years old, came into view as she hustled over to yank Johnny down into a hug. A smile lit Johnny’s face, the likes of which Ghost had never seen before. It was warm and relieved, happy and teary. It looked like Johnny had been told ‘It’s all okay’ and -for the first time- actually believed it. Johnny and his mother held each other for a long moment, each just breathing the other in. Through the door Ghost could see that the space behind them was crowding with people, all impatiently waiting to have their go at hugging the returned MacTavish.

Mrs Mactavish pulled away, reaching up to clasp Johnny’s face between her hands, planting a long kiss on his forehead, then pulling back again to look him over, murmuring to him in Scots Gaelic. Something Ghost, thanks to Johnny, could now recognize.

Johnny had warned him that it was the primary language spoken under the MacTavish roof, in deference to Johnny’s Grannie, whose grasp of English isn’t the best. Ghost had been forbidden from worrying about it and Johnny had assured and reassured him that "Ma an’ all ae mah wee siblings speak English jus’ fine", so he was trying his best to obey and not stress out.

Mrs MacTavish released Johnny, prompting even more people to crowd into the room to get at him and Ghost redoubled his efforts to not freak out. Wishing he hadn’t been so adamant in rebuffing Johnny when he’d said no one would care if Ghost wore his mask. Being able to hide behind his balaclava would be really nice right about now.

“Ye mus’ be this Ghost fella mah Coinneach is always yammering abou’,” The voice piping up at Ghost’s elbow does not make him jump. Ghost is a highly trained Special Forces Operative, he would notice a middle-aged Scottish woman approaching him before she spoke. He Would.

“Oh! Ah’m sorrae, laddie. Didnae mean tae spook ye,” Mrs MacTavish apologises, “Come in, Come in, Donnae stan’ on the stoop like y’ur no' welcome.”

Ghost finds himself ushered into what he discovers is the kitchen of the house. To his right was the kitchen proper, there was what Ghost could only guess was a genuine wood stove crouched directly in front of the door and guarding the threshold, it was in direct competition with the gas cooker pressed against the far wall, bracketed by counters covered in various appliances that looked like they'd hopped straight off the pages of a fifties home catalogue, but still seemed to be in good repair. Quaintly, the cupboards hanging over them were closed with curtains rather than doors. The only acquiescences to the modern era seemed to be the nice big fridge humming away like an afterthought at the end of the counters, and the washer tucked away in the corner.

It was a nice kitchen, it looked homey, lived in.

To his left was a long oval table with an assortment of seats surrounding it. Ghost could pick out a few chairs with carvings the same as the ones on the table’s legs that could only be the matching set, but they were outnumbered by ones that had clearly been added as needed. He could also spot a leaning stack of metal folding chairs half tucked behind a hutch in the back, clearly the MacTavish house was well accustomed to crowds.

Ghost was chivvied into one of the seats around the table, his Special Forces joints extremely grateful for the soft cushion padding the chair and guarding him from the ache of the hard wood. A glance at his table mates revealed whom the cushioning was truly intended for. A lady that must be around seventy sat to his right, and to her right, at the head of the table, sat a man in the same age range. The man was watching him.

Ghost took an educated guess and presumed that these must be Johnny’s Grannie and Grandad.

Fucking Hell.

Johnny never told him their names.

He’d always just referred to them as Grannie and Grandad, so Ghost had always called them ‘your Grannie and Grandad’ when asking after them. He didn’t even know if they were MacTavishs. Thinking about it, they were probably Johnny’s mother’s parents.

Oh, Bloody Fucking Hell.

What the fuck was Mrs MacTavish’s first name.

How the hell had he managed to have a panic attack over memorizing the names of Johnny’s five siblings and never have the thought cross his mind to learn the names of his mother and grandparents. Ghost is in their house, sitting at their table, and he doesn’t have a single clue what their names are.

What the fuck, Johnny.

The awkward staring contest he’d been entered into by Johnny’s Grandad was only growing more and more uncomfortable. It’d be rude to look away without saying anything, but what the fuck was he supposed to say, ‘Sorry for barging into your home, Johnny demanded Simon Riley crawl out of the grave that Ghost left him in to come meet the extended MacTavish family’?

Johnny rescued him by coming over to the table, leaning down to accept his Grandad’s seated one-armed hug and back pats, then pressing kisses to his Grannie’s cheek as he passed by on his way to drape himself over the back of Ghost’s chair, because sitting in his own chair like a normal human eludes Johnny.

He talked back and forth with his grandparents for a moment then turned to Ghost to make the least helpful introduction he has ever been forced to be a part of, “Ghost, this is mah Grannie and Grandad,” Then turning to his grandparents, “This is mah L.T, Ghost.”

Johnny’s Grandad seemed well used to Johnny’s foibles and reached an arm across the table to shake Ghost’s hand and supplement with his own introductions, “Ah’m Amhlaigh Milne, an’ this is the missus, Fionna Milne,”

Amhlaigh Milne’s hands were broad with liverspots speckling their backs, textured by hard calluses and soft wrinkling skin. His handshake was cursory and firm. He was a man that had shaken a thousand hands before and had no interest in adding pomp or frippery to the exchange.

“Simon Riley, sir, ma’am,” Ghost replied, nodding to Mr then Mrs Milne, “Thank you for having me in your home,”

Mrs Milne said something to Johnny in Scots Gaelic, sounding almost despairing. Johnny cried a shocked ‘Seanmhair!’ and a wild barking laugh carvoted out of the kitchen, followed by a multitude of variations on the same. Mrs MacTavish had been puttering about the kitchen getting tea and nibbles together, and was now bracing against the counters to not fall off her feet laughing. The people that Ghost hadn’t been introduced to, but could only assume were Johnny’s siblings, were leaning against each other and various pieces of furniture as they fought to stay upright on knees weakened by their cackling.

Well, it was good to see that Johnny came by it honestly.

Mrs MacTavish pulled herself together enough to pick up the tea tray and bring it over without spilling, the occasional giggle rattling through the teaset before she made it to the table.

“Ma says-,” Mrs MacTavish cut herself off, planting a hand on the table as a new wave of laughter wracked her, Johnny was hiding his face behind a hand, but the deep red of his ears betrayed his blush, “Ma says, it’s guid tha’ Coinneach is the firs’ ae her grankids tae bring ‘ome a fella, bu’ did ye have tae be a fuckin’ sassenach!”

The last of the translation is squeaked out in between laughs, but Ghost thinks he’s gotten the jist. Mrs Milne was hoping her grandchildren would bring home partners that were Scots.

Add her to the tally of people Ghost had lived to disappoint.

“None of your siblings have had partners before?” Ghost turns his head to address the question to Johnny, getting some vindictive pleasure from the offended squawks coming from the peanut gallery of siblings milling about in the kitchen.

“Nae, they’ve ‘ad partners, bu’ all ae 'em 'ave been too feart tae bring ‘em fer a visit,” Now Johnny is the one laughing, and the greedy beast that weaves through Ghost’s ribs squeezes tight, viscerally glad to have been the one to cause it.

A succession of offended noises comes charging out of the kitchen, followed by the siblings in question.

“Oi!” barks a young man with Johnny’s mousey brown hair, Mrs MacTavish’s straight nose, and hazel green eyes that Ghost doesn’t recognise, “Ah’m nae feart!” The rest of his defense is in Scots Gaelic and therefore lost to Ghost, but by the gasps and laughter it triggers, it’s nothing good.

“Artair!” Mrs MacTavish scolds, and Ghost assigns the name to the face on the internal profiles he’s been habitually building in his head for Johnny’s family, “Donnae say tha’ we’ve company!”

“He cannae understan-” Artair complains,

“Tha’ donnae matter. Artair MacTavish, ye’ll watch y’ur tongue or so help me Jesus, Ah’ll give ye a doin’!” Mrs MacTavish asserts, hands on her hips. Nodding sharply when Artair obediently subsides, “Noo, did ye wan’ a cuppa, Ghost?” She presents the full tea service to Ghost.

“Please, call me Simon, Mrs MacTavish,” Ghost almost begs of the woman, being addressed by his callsign by such a motherly figure is disconcerting in ways that Ghost refuses to analyze.

“Simon i’ tis,” Mrs MacTavish easily agrees, and starts identifying the nibbles she's brought over, “These ‘ere are egg an’ cress pieces, bridies, butteries, tablet, an’ shor’ bread. Have y’ur pick ae the lot.”

“Mo ciallian, did ye-”

“Nae, Da. Ah didnae pu’ onions in the bridies,” Mrs MacTavish supplied before her father could finish his question.

“Guid lass. Pass us up a few, noo. There's a guid lad,” Mr Milne chivvies Johnny into popping a few on a plate for him, Ghost was fascinated to see Johnny automatically make up and pass along a cup of coffee too. His family had never had that kind of camaraderie. A sudden wave of despair welled up to drown him as the unwelcome thought that he had no idea how his mother used to take her tea and there was no one left that he could ask struck him.

Johnny gently squeezed at the nape of his neck, bending down to put their heads in line, so that he could mutter to Ghost what exactly was in all the snacks Mrs MacTavish had just offered him. If Ghost leaned into the contact, buoyed by Johnny’s presence, that was between him and the devil, thank you very much.

Having clocked the identity of the coffee pot, Ghost got himself a tea from the teapot. Opening dishes until he found the milk powder, he mindlessly filled a mug with coffee for Johnny and slid it over along with the milk bowl, setting the dish back amongst the teaset when Johnny had taken what he wanted. The teapot was ensconced in a nicely knitted plaid tea cosy, a brief glance up at Johnny netted him a nod, and he studied the cosy with more interest.

So this was the MacTavish… hmm.

Another glance to Johnny, with a tip of his head in Mr Milne’s direction. Another distracted nod from Johnny, one of his sisters was ranting to him about an incompetent chef.

So this was the Milne tartan.

A woman burst through the backdoor, a small dog following at her heels. Another ecstatic cry went up and the family rushed to welcome her home. Johnny had told him that this was the first time all the MacTavish children would be under the same roof in years, Johnny’s mother had been planning it for months.

“Kennie!” the latest addition cheered, breaking free of the scrum to tackle Johnny in a hug, “How’ve ye been! Still ten, ten, an’ two?”

Johnny threw his head back in a laugh, then held up his hands to wiggle his ten fingers at her, “Aye, ah’ve still go’ all mah bits, Maggie.”

Ghost watched the crease of his eyes, the flash of his teeth, the jump of his chest. Glutting himself on Johnny’s happiness.

“So ye finally brough’ us y’ur man,” Maggie nodded in Ghost’s direction, a released Johnny coming to perch at Ghost’s shoulder again. Memorizing her face Ghost updated his profiles, this must be Maighread, the youngest.

“Aye, doin’ Ma proud, Ah am,” Johnny retorted, “Pickin’ up the slack ae allae youse,”

“Oi,” Maighread barked with a laugh, bending to pick up the dog that had been standing on its hindlegs to paw at her thighs, “A’ leas’ ah’ve brough’ Ma her firs’ grankid,”

“Aye, right.” Johnny conceded, reaching forward to give the dog a few pats, “An’ how’s wee Calum been farin’?”

“He’s grand! Vet said he’s great joints for nine,” Maighread enthused, then gave Calum a smooch on the head and pressed him into Johnny’s arms, “ ‘ere, be a lad an’ hold him while I say hullo to ar seann-phàrantan,”

Watching Johnny juggle a small grey dog and a hot mug of coffee twisted a smile onto Ghost’s face.

“Calum?” He let the question stand on its own and was gratified by Johnny’s response.

“Aye, he’s Maggie’s wee lad. A mini schnauzer. She go’ ‘im off a breeder, he didnae qualify fer a showdog, so noo ‘e’s the first MacTavish grankid. Ma’s go’ ‘im in the albums an’ every’hing.” Hearing Johnny’s accent thickening with every second that he spent amongst his fellow Scots was captivating, “Maggie trea’s ‘im like ‘e’s her own bairn.”

Ghost is not legally obligated to confirm or deny whether he did or did not open a mental profile for Calum the nine year old miniature schnauzer.

“Why’re you holding him?” Ghost asked,

“Dae ye wan’ tae?” Johnny asked in return. That hadn’t been why he’d asked, but he wasn’t going to say no.

Ghost nodded and scooted back from the table to give Johnny room to set the warm armful of dog on his lap, carefully bringing his arm around to make sure Calum didn’t accidentally fall.

Calum the miniature schnauzer snuffled at his face, his shirt, his hands, then seemed perfectly content to take a seat on his lap, propping his forepaws up on the table, like he truly was part of the family.

“Aye, tha’s fine,” Johnny supplied at Ghost's questioning look, “Donnae le’ ‘im jump up or no’hing, bu’ it’s fine as long as ye wipe the table after ‘e gets doon.”

Ghost was then perfectly content to sit, drinking his tea and petting the dog weighing down his legs. Normally the hustle and bustle of the many people talking and swarming about the rooms would quickly become too much for Ghost and he would need to take a break or else risk disassociating or having a panic attack, but oddly he was feeling fine.

With Johnny standing sentinel at his shoulder, his hip pressed against Ghost’s side, and his arm arm idly draped across the back of his chair, Ghost was able to feel secure where he was. In spite of the commotion and chatter around him.

Eventually the whole MacTavish brood was sat to the table, including Calum, who had abandoned Ghost to curl up on Maighread’s lap as soon as his owner had sat down. With cuppas and plates of nibbles close to hand, the air thrummed with idle chatter. Everyone updating and catching up, sharing the newest gossip about people that the table’s occupants would never meet. Mr Milne clearing his throat muted the room, though the silence wasn’t the oppressive tension that Ghost’s father had loved to employ, rather it was more of a curious waiting.

“Riley, ‘ave ye met,” Mr Milne cast a wide gesture out to encompass the entire room, grunting like he’d expected as much when Ghost replied with a quick ‘No, Sir’, and then proceeding to efficiently go around the table, putting names to faces.

“Mah oldes’ daugh’er, Oighrig.”

“Oh, jus' call me Effie, dear,” Mrs MacTavish interjected,

“Oighrig’s oldes’, Iseabail,” Mr Milne spoke on, unphased,

“Izzie,” The woman sat to Johnny’s left offered,

“Ye know Coinneach o’course,” Mr Milne didn’t miss a beat and Ghost got the feeling that this was routine for him,

“Folk ‘roun ‘ere call me Kennie,” Johnny grinned up at him, his chair leg-to-leg with Ghost’s, letting Johnny easily press up against Ghost’s left arm,

“Then the twins, Donella-”

“Nella,” Chirps the woman directly across from Ghost

“an' Eilionoir,”

“Ellie,” Spoke the identical woman sat to Donella’s right,

“Artair,” The young man sat to the right of Eilionoir offered only a nod, “our younges’, Maighread,” Mr Milne indicated the woman sat to his own right,

“Call me Maggie,” She offered with a bright smile,

“An’ Maighread’s Calum,” Mr Milne rounded out, giving the dogs ears a ruffle.

Ghost gave the table a nod, “It’s good to meet you all, thank you for having me,”

His thanks are immediately waved away, eight separate voices speaking their denials of any thanks being necessary. Ghost holds his hands up in surrender and sits back to sip his tea

“So Ellie, did ye tell tha’ man wit’ the gormless ring idea tae get tae fuck?” Maighread’s question forces an aggravated sigh out of Eilionoir, and with that the conversation moves on.

Ghost is happy to have the attention off him, but is even happier to revel in the line of heat that comes from Johnny pressed tight against his side. Planting a hand on Johnny's leg, Ghost silently urges him impossibly closer, appeased by the way Johnny immediately obliges him. Scooting half off his chair he pushes down on Ghost’s shoulder and tugs him around by the waist so Ghost's slumped back against Johnny’s chest. Perfectly aligned for Johnny to drop his head down to rest his chin on Ghost’s shoulder, the soft scratch of the shaved sides of his warhawk rasping over Ghost’s ear and rubbing intoxicatingly against his cheek. Ghost squeezes at the leg he hadn’t released and revels in the tight squeeze Johnny returns to him.

No one at the table gives their new seating arrangement a second glance and Ghost allows himself to wholly relax. Dropping his weight back onto Johnny without any fear of falling.

There aren’t words for the feeling that fills up Ghost’s chest. The closest might be devotion. A gluttonous loyalty, content to share only because it gains him ever more of Johnny, others drawing out sides of him Ghost can’t. A burning obsession that banks and surges with every moment, every glance, every touch that Johnny allows him.

What else is he meant to feel for a man that brings him home.

Thank You For Reading!

So the idea I set out with was "Soap takes ghost home to meet the family, ghost gets a bit overwhelmed by the amount of people, and realises he’s treating soap like some absurd mix of a touch/worry stone and a therapy dog. Thereby realising that soap makes him feel safe, and that wherever soap is, is home to him." I don't know how that became 3000 words, but here we are.

For anyone curious here are my notes on the MacTavish family:

Amhlaigh Milne -Grandad Fionna Milne - Grannie 69yo Oighrig MacTavish - Mother 53yo Iseabail(lesbian, the devil's advocate, she likes to look like the reasonable one and sometimes she is, trained as a professional chef, Job: restaurant owner) 34yo +1yr Coinneach John, 33yo +2yrs Eilionoir(Poly, is used to sharing Donella's partner, is not attracted to Donella, thoughtful and assessing, judgemental, realist leaning pessimist, job: makes jewelry) Donella(Poly, is used to sharing Eilionoir's partner, is not attracted to Eilionoir, more outspoken, open-minded, optimist, Job: professional horse trainer,) 31yo +3yrs Artair(sarcastic, always has a comment, acts like the baby of the family, Job: broker, he gets a budget from his client to find a specific/rare item for them, he bids in auctions and stuff), 28/yo +1yr Maighread(is the baby of the family, no one asks Maggie to do anything she doesnt want to, kind, warm, obliging, but not selfless or overly giving, Job: house sitter). 27/yo

Eilionoir and Donella live together and have four cats, all of which used to be stray cats. Their names are Sir Gawain, Darcy, Croissant, and Soot.

Hi! Do you have any more headcanons or scenarios surrounding the Good Mom!Beryl au? It's just really sweet and we barely have any concepts like this, so I wanted to ask if you had any more ideas surrounding it?

Sure do :)

Headcanons:

-Beryl was hesitant to bring her kids into the spotlight. It’s the best way to hide them she knows that but it wasn’t an easy decision to make.

-Thalia doesn’t let anyone but her mum do her hair. She will be the sweetest lil kiddo in hair and make up until someone takes a brush out.

Beryl apologises every time but she does find it very sweet. Leaving everyone to watch in surprise as Thalia’s anger vanishes as she patiently gets her hair done.

-Thalia is just very protective over her mum and brother. She punched a reporter once when she noticed they were making her mum uncomfortable.

-Beryl has derailed entire interviews to gush about her children. Her kids do sometimes crash her interviews and when that happens she gives them all her attention.

-Jason was on one of those kid rucksack leashes because that boy just wanders off all the time.

-Beryl can’t see through the mist but she’s got a knack for making connections with legacies and demigods in the industry.

Though she doesn’t tell anyone who her children’s father is.

-Beryl never thought she’d be cut out for motherhood but she always wanted a family. She ran away from home years back to chase her dreams.

And had long since cut all contact with whatever family she had left.

-Thalia wears one of her mums old denim jackets. They both made a day out of decorating it to her punk tastes.

Ae far as scenarios goes:

-Beryl falling for Zeus and Jupiter but knowing from the get go they’ll never love her back. So while they’re together she learns as much as she can about demigods and his world.

Because she knows he’ll leave soon enough. Shes just the next pretty little thing that’s caught his attention, shes heard it all before.

It hurts but it’s true.

Zeus doesn’t question it but Jupiter wonders why she never asks him to stay. To which she shrugs and says “I’m not gonna beg for something that’s never going to be mine.”

“You don’t know that.”

“Then why do you never stay?”

-Beryl at the park with her kiddos and Thalia running over screaming about Jason. And even without knowing Beryl rushes over, picks him and takes them home.

She comforts her terrified child who’s talking about hearing people talk about taking Jason. It turns out it wasn’t people at all but wolves.

An annoyed yet regal woman appears in her dreams that night and in an instant Beryl knows who she is.

“You can’t hide him forever.”

“Doesn’t need to be forever, just long enough for him to grow. Both of them that is.”

“I see my husband didn’t pick you for your brains. Whatever you think you’re up too it won’t work.”

“I’m not gonna ask for your sympathy lord knows I haven’t earned it. But as a mother…they’re all I’ve got. I won’t let them go without a fight:”

“Suit yourself.”

“And for what it’s worth…I’m sorry.”

“No you aren’t. And I’d recommend you never lie to me again.”

A lot of the neg claims about II are really just making a problem really big/treating it as , or taking things out of context, so let's talk about some of them, ESPECIALLY because of a certain someone(s) lately. Let me clarify that I know that II's writing ISN'T perfect, but nothing is perfect really, and most of these issues are misinterpretation, the choices of the fandom and/or even AE TRYING to fix the writing of a character because a certain SOMEONE was fired on early stages of the writing of said character.

So.

Let's talk about Inanimate Insanity Invitational, and the usual claims that come with it.

1. Cabby's Writing, Interpretations of Her Relationships, and ableism.

Cabby is one of the most... "controversial" characters when it comes to talk about III's writing, which it really shouldn't be like that at all, although I get where people are coming from expressing their concerns when it comes to the writing of her. Let me clarify something. Yes, I am aware that Cabby's writing changes A LOT and that it isn't perfect by any means, but I think that what people fail to understand most of the time is that Taylor was the one that started the Cabby-Test Tube storyline as a whole, and at some point as early s3 was being made, Taylor was fired from the team due to. Well, you guys know it. Pretty bad stuff. So of course, they had to figure out what direction they could go with Cabby as a whole, and to giving her character more depth than her just using her files for the game.

Now, it is obvious that they didn't plan from the start to have Cabby as a disabled character, but again, writing isn't always perfect. They had to somehow make things work. And even IF it wasn't planned, you guys have to remember the other factors that came with the writing on general. So of course her writing isn't as consistent as the writing of the other character on s3, but on later episodes it does get more better. I can see why people don't really like her arc, but those factors really matter when criticizing a form of media.

Cabby's writting and her disability isn't bad. Yes, it could've had better ways of execution, but it's not bad.

When it comes to relationships, I have seen someone seeing Cabby's relationship with Test Tube as a canonically sapphic thing because apparently Cabby's VA had that sort of intent, and therefore even claiming that Cabby suffers from lesbophobia(via claiming that she had a crush on Test Tube) and misogyny.

And that's not true. First of all, Cabby's and Test Tube's relationship is pretty much an example of friendships that don't work, and Test Tube pretty much exposed Cabby to the world and made her feel bad about herself for the rest of the episodes. A headcanon doesn't mean that the whole thing changes on canon, it's just that, a headcanon/interpretation, and claiming that what they did to her was lesbophobic is. Pretty weird. Since it is shown that Test Tube hurted Cabby a lot. As well, just because the Voice Actor had an intention, IT DOESN'T mean that the writers had said intention.

When it comes to the claims of misogyny, I still don't quite get why people try to see what isn't there.

The thing is that there isn't a lot of femenine characters on II and such, but Cabby isn't treated like that because "she doesn't do anything for men", she helps everyone on general, she cares about people. But she isn't put as a bad woman because of this. What you guys tend to forget is that. Cabby WAS kind of a prick on early s3. She DID commit mistakes and wasn't a great person, but that doesn't mean that misogyny is there just because for that. Just because people treat a fem character badly/not great BECAUSE OF HER PAST ACTIONS, doesn't mean that there's misogyny. The cast on general didn't like Cabby at all until she "redeemed" herself/changed/was true to herself. So that claim is. Pretty out of nowhere.

Now... with the ableism. I do get where you guys are coming from, but if you look into it deeply, they genuinely did have other intentions. The thing that people usually tend to forget is that the II characters aren't all white and black, they're gray. They do messed up stuff when they don't understand things. What the characters do to Cabby before she becomes more open about her disability is NEVER glorified and they always end up learning about it one way or another. Is it reasonable? Yes, was it ever justified on canon terms? Nope! People can be assholes without knowing that they're assholes and THEN learn! Things like that happen all of the time. Writers don't condone the actions of the characters.

Let's take an example at the scene with Bot and Cabby on episode 14. The main problem here was Bot giving fake information to Cabby, which yes, I agree that was a very bad move to do and you should NEVER do that to a disabled person (especially taking in count that Cabby suffers from a sort of memory disorder), but they didn't have an malicious intent whole doing so at all. Bot was still figuring out themselves and didn't want to be written down by somebody (because. THAT'S WHAT TEST TUBE AND FAN DID.), and Cabby doing the file thing was also easy to take on a bad light, but after Justin's explanation, it makes sense.

Could've it been treated on a better way? Yes. And YET, Bot apologizes for what they did to Cabby and DOES the disability aid themselves for her, and apologizes on EPISODE 15, just a few hours later probably or some days later. And on the same episode, Lifering tells Cabby that she shouldn't be ashamed of using her aids and that she shouldn't feel bad about those. Test Tube RESPECTS Cabby's space once she gets that she was wrong about her too. She knows she messed up too badly.

Later on, on episodes 16 and 17, everyone finally gets Cabby's files and respects them, because they finally saw that she actually needs those and that hey, she changed a lot. They treated her good. Characters can be human and can make mistakes, but they can also get better and learn. Although Cabby's arc is not flawless, it is still good. And all of the issues are easily explained just like that.

2. Bot's creation, and how it's never justified by them.

One of the main points that some people tend to bring on "III's poor writing" is the fact that Bot was pretty much built based on a parasocial relationship of sorts. However said people dare to say that AE portrays it as something good/thought that it was okay, and never did anything else to show Bot being uncomfortable by it, but this is NOT TRUE.

Ever since Bot found out that they were a replica of someone, they knew it was pretty fucked up coming from Test Tube and Fan. Meanwhile it is not explained the loss these two went through (The Shimmer egg probably does not count, since traces of "Bowbot" have been seen on early-mid s2), we know for a fact that what happened was pretty bad for the two of them. But, Bot never really forgave Test Tube. "What about the chat they have where Test Tube apologizes to them?", Bot is willing to give her another chance for the fact that Test Tube offered to help them to be themselves.

Even then Bot explains on their interview that the main reason they acted poorly towards Cabby, was because they got attached to Test Tube, the "only" person that could've helped them to change at the moment. However, again, III doesn't justify what Test Tube and Fan did. Sure, Bot considers them their parents, but they just created them and even when Bot was discovering themselves, Test Tube was. Still pushing the fem terms on them.

So, Bot is fully aware about their existence being fucked up, but they're just trying to live their life as well. These claims do not make any sense despite it being the easiest part to look into.

3. Invitational's writing. (And how The Bright Lights not being themselves is part of the fandoms fault, but also what happens when you try to expand an character who's arc is over).

Ah... one of the most... complicated points here. People tend to absolutely want to kill AE over the writing feeling weird or unprofessional on S3, but I think that all of you just kind of forget many factors at hand that came with it.

The reason as to why the most of the main Bright Lights were there IS because of viewer voting. The Bright Lights had their arcs finished on s2, and trying to have an story where something is going on with characters that are pretty much done in their stories is VERY difficult, and should not even happen at all. The only characters that did have something going on were Nickel, Balloon and Yinyang on s2 terms. Even OJ was just not having it.

So of course the viewer voting getting those 3 Bright Lights there kind of made things so much more mid on a building up relationships term. Other characters had a lot going on that needed to be solved, not them. I do think that AE should NEVER let the viewers do anything anymore because that's one of the weakest points of s3: most of the s2 characters. When you try to develop characters who's arc is closed, you kinda pretty much go nowhere with it. But you can't just have them sitting doing nothing till their elimination.

However... it's not bad when you forget those 3 characters (Fan, Paintbrush and Test Tube) and have the remaining s2 guys and the new characters. It isn't bad at all. In fact, their arcs are pretty consistent for the most part (except for Cabby's if we count the start of it), and the arcs of Nickel & Balloon AND Yinyang show some real growth and ARE proof that AE does know how to write characters. As long as they ACTUALLY HAVE something going on for them.

As well, something that people forget a lot when it comes to III's writing, is that it is more lighthearted on comparison to S2. Which I can get to an extent, but then, let's remember this: AE made S3 because they were burnt out from S2's writing.

They wanted to make something more fun, something that was more S1 like, and meanwhile I do get people not liking S3 at all because of this, please do remember that S3 is meant to be more silly. More funny. Less serious stuff. Until the last episodes dropped that is, but it is still it's main intention.

4. ...Transphobic? Allegations/accusations.

This point makes me feel so SO tired at this point and it's how people say "AE gets the trans characters out just when they came out" and get so SO tired of people missing the point with Bot's design, but also missing the whole Paintbrush thing.

The reason as to why they get eliminated is because they get closure to their arc, and they have to get growth off-screen. On both of Paintbrush's eliminations, they were gone as a way to have closure, because the competition wasn't a healthy place for them, and Paintbrush's growth off screen is subtle, but it is still there. Back on s2 they were scared of saying their identity, but after they got eliminated, they got comfortable enough to the point of having the non binary flag on their shared room with Fan, and are pretty respected by the whole cast afterwards.

On s3, their elimination is pretty much the same, but it's them knowing that they don't have it on themselves to keep competing in the show. They get closure with Mephone4 instead.

When it comes to Bot, I have genuinely seen people complain about AE getting rid of the "fem traits" because Bot is... nonbinary. But. That's. That's fucking dumb at this point. The pink and the EYELASHES are FROM BOW. Bot's whole arc is about finding themselves and showing their true self to the world, and Justin has confirmed that Bot still DOES like those things, but that they're trying to find themselves! Trying to be their own person! And them getting out was also them getting closure because they finally know who they are, and they know that no matter what, no one can change that for them.

And for the last part of this... it is pretty obvious that s1 and early-mid s2 had quite some poor humor regarding Painty's gender, but this can be explained by two things: 1- They were still quite young when these seasons were made, 2- Taylor was still on the team (and he was the main reason as to why there were slurs on II, please do correct me if I'm wrong), but they ended up getting treated with respect and decency despite all things. Again. It wasn't perfect. But they managed to fix it and make it work.

Now, are those factors worth pointing out? Yes, they are, but are they arguments to try and say that AE is transphobic on actual times? No. They showed growth and tried to fix their mistakes. And meanwhile it isn't flawless, it's still pretty good.

5. Nickel's Writing Is Actually Good, You Guys Are Just Too Convinced In Your Own Headcanons

Oh boy, now, if you are quite familiar with the plots I usually analyze here, you must know already how strongly I feel about Nickel as a character and his arc with Balloon as a whole. Because everyone gets them so so wrong and misses the whole point of it. You may know this but people complain a lot about Nickel's arc taking "too long" or "being way too rushed", and both of those takes are pretty much wrong. Some also say that Nickel was worthy of a big villain just because, oh, what was his crime? Sucking at communication and trying to protect his alliance from someone he saw as dangerous at the time? That's called being a complicated character. That's literally it. Some even complain about him "not getting what he deserves" but he pretty much does get called out on the series, but also yelling at him and telling him to die won't help.

That's now how it works. Nickel's arc makes sense and it was long because he had to solve a lot about himself and about learning how to be a good, genuine friend. He became soft because he ended up having people (ex: Box) that told him to get his shit together and to stop putting his petty feelings first to focus on the team. Nickel's whole arc is about knowing what you did was wrong, and wanting to become a better person despite all odds. Even if those who you care about might never forgive you. It was necessary for The Grand Slams arc to make sense and to keep on growing.

You guys want a character to get better, but then complain when one character does become a better person, a more genuine version of themselves. And no, Nickel's actions were never justified by the show or by himself, although he did excuse his actions with fear at some point, but even then, he fully recognizes that his actions were terrible and understands if Balloon won't forgive him.

Just because you hate a character it doesn't mean you can just mischaracterize them and or forget the whole point of their arc. Nickel's arc alongside Balloon's MAKES sense and it's pretty much the best arc on s3 all factors considered.

6. Is Invitational a bad season overall?

It isn't a bad season. Yes, I keep repeating myself, it is not perfect, but that doesn't mean that it's a bad season. It doesn't stand up to the point where s2 is, but that's the goal, it's meant to be a season made for fun and to chill, and meanwhile I can agree that there are things that can be better or could've been executed on different ways, and it got way better on later episodes due to better structure.

I can get people not liking s3 because of it's flaws but it's not the WORST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED AND A MOCKERY, it's genuinely just something made for fun. And people tend to forget that.

There is not a media that is perfect. Inanimate Insanity isn't by any means.

But man. Isn't it a good show anyway? Isn't it a show that made you feel for the stories and it's characters? Isn't it imperfectly perfect on it's own way? Isn't it made with care and love? Isn't the fact that it has flaws makes it feel more genuine?

I personally think it is. But that's just me.

Thank you for reading.

extension of you by mili is a ford song because please please please please please

lyrics below cut

first thing i learned: i have to breathe

secondly, i learned to eat

to chew on red meat, clean my teeth

before going to sleep

hello, good morning

i learned to speak, describe what i see

there is me, and there is you

who knew everything

teach me how to sing

da da da-da da…

covered my skin

with pieces of

cotton linen

…

conserve the most vulnerable part of me

for me

…

my ribs opened up

made room for beating hearts

stainless steel happens to my shoulder

pierces through my rubbery skin

upgrades me

with a pair of limbs

my head opened up

made room deeper thoughts

contracting

muscles getting bigger

under my rubbery skin

i’ve became what i thought was human

…

my structure expands

further than you

allow me to be

an extension of you

…

then, i learned there are many more delicacies, tomatoes and cheese

i learned the good and the evil

learned your boundaries

learned your mortality

you’re out of service

out of service

out of service-

aah…

…

for the first time you failed

and i asked myself

is there meaning at all?

…

i know that bodies rot

but where are your self?

where are all your thoughts?

…

i wanted to believe

that ghosts are real

…

there are still many things

that i want to know

stories left untold

does it feel good to love?

to hand out your own?

does it feel good to hate?

to shelter one’s self?

does it feel good to live?

to treasure the now?

does it feel good to die?

to live your next life?

…

…da-da-da da da…da…da-da-da…da…da da…

…da-da-da da da…hmm-hm-hm…

#he is alterhuman you see #and we fully headcanon him to be a changeling. not as an au. he just is #and anyhow ae feel like this can all be compared to him struggling to fit in #to find where he belongs #he learns how to become human (like so many before and after him have had to do)#yet he can’t seem to get it right. he’s still not accepted #but…stan fits the shape of human. maybe ford can learn from his twin how to act like he does too #ae like to think of ford as inhuman both literally and metaphorically #he doesn’t feel human. and that can mean many more things than it initially seems #(NAILED IT YOU NAILED IT EYETREES YOU BRILLIANT DUMBASS)

With a clumsy crush

[ HEADCANONS ] [ AE-3803, U-1146, AA2153, U-1196 ]

[ Cells at Work! ] [ Cells at Work! Code Black ]

The fact that their names are numbers make way more dificult for me to try to remember them!! But something like that wont stop me from being a simp 🤌🏼

remember, this is the fandom all of you voted to be added, so now you have to support me on this! 🫵🏼🫵🏼🫵🏼🫵🏼🫵🏼🫵🏼

AE-3803

AE-3803 is quite cheerfuly and is happy to get to know new people (hopefuly not while she is lost or even in danger), for you two to met is because you have to cross paths at least one time, wich is not difficult since she always travels all across this world, and since the start she has being quite friendly

It doesn't take much time before AE-3803 develop feelings for you, after spending time together she just start to fall in love with you without even noticing it, she can be quite innocent at times and she just accept her feelings without doubting them much, even if she is easily flustered when it come to you she just easily cover it up by admiration or even embarrassment for her own clumsiness

It doesn't take much time for AE-3803 to notice how clumsy you can be and she just find it funny and even a little adorable, unable to not relate to you and your clumsiness with how easily she gets lost, she even constantly make jokes about it (sometimes is just to try to brush off her embarrassed or flustered state)

It became quite common that whenever you two cross paths she is lost or you injured due your clumsiness, at first it was something you would worry but soon just became something over what you two joke around, as long as non of you are severaly injured or in real danger it doesn't hurt to joke about it

AE-3803 can be quite worried about you being clumsy but she is pretty much in a similar position, so even when she worries most of the time stays positive and doesn't talk about it or just ask you to be careful is a friendly way, even prefering to joke around about it to don't worry too much. Besides, AE-3803 isn't the type of person who judges you or underestimate you for being clumsy, she relate to you so she actually recognize the efforts you do when trying your best to do your work and even express her admiration without problems (even if she can get a little embarrassed when she notice what she is saying)

AE-3803 has a hard time understanding her feelings for you, she just doesn't fully get that she likes you in a more romantic way rather than just platonically, even if she gets flustered by you and is more embarrassed whenever you two meet each other when she is lost she still doesn't get that she is in love, or maybe she is too embarrassed to admit it

U-1146

Since U-1146 works protecting everyone from any threat in this world it won't be difficult to get to know each other during work, at first he was mostly polite but as you two see each other more often the closer you two grow to be closer, starting by being simply friends

For him to fall in love it will take a while, his feeling grow slow but they grow quite stronge, somehow you became quite important for him and he is constantly thinking about you and is quite obvious how happy he feels whenever you cross paths (he even offer you to walk with you with the excuse of having to go in the same direction)

U-1146 is stuck between knowing that you are important for him but not being sure of the true extent of his feelings, more than not accepting his feelings is that he doesn't fully understand then (and yet, he just accept the without much troubles)

U-1146 is quite perceptive due his job so it didn't take him much time to notice that you can be quite clumsy, and even when he was a little taken aback by your clumsiness at first it didn't take him too long to get used to it, the more time you two spend together the more he grow acostumed to it and at some point he will just learn to react fast to help you out, holding you or whatever you were holding before it hits the floor

As well, U-1146 can be quite protective over you, he doesn't get jealous easily but whenever he sense any kind of threat he is already getting ready to step in front of you to shield you from anything and everything, specially if you are already injured. However, U-1146 can be not be so serious all the time, if is something smaller or not so threatening, even if is something that is not his job to deal he can let his guard down or just accept that he can't do this and make sure you two are safe until the problem is solved

Despite everything, he doesn't really think less of you for being clumsy nor underestimate you for something like that, he just grow used to it and to ask you if you are alright or need any help when you are being specially clumsy, even feeling a little worried whenever you get injured for it

U-1146 is not the type of person who would underestimate you, even if you are quite clumsy he doesn't doubt your strength or your intelligence and even respect you from still doing your best at your work despite your usual clumsiness (and if you want to improve yourself and even try to have more balance on yourself to prevent more accidents his admiration for you will just grow)

AA2153

This job is definetly not what AA2153 was expecting, even during training they were told that things were better, wich just end up being a cruel joke

AA2153 have being trying his best to acomplish his work, trying his best to dont give up and stay as optimistic as he can, even if he has the world itself against him that won't stop him from trying his best and doing all he can to try and make this world survive

Honestly, falling in love have being a surprise even for him, is more likely you two meet constantly during work and just end up growing to be at least friends, even if it doesn't happen too slowl it will take him a long time to realice his feelings for you just because he takes what he feels like something natural and doesn't doubt them

AA2153 isn't exactly shy, he may sometimes get flustered whenever you two are hanging out, specially if you two are too close, but he will not have troubles to talk to you and sometimes even showing how much he does care for you, paying way too much attention to you and showing how concerned he is for your safety, he can be overworking himself and completely exhausted but always have the time to check on you to make sure you are doing alright

AA2153 already worries quite a lot for you due the condition of the world you live in but you being clumsy just make him worry even more, most of the time he tries to just focus on his work but everytime he sees you he tries to get at least a few seconds free to make sure you are doing alright (but always giving you a smile to try to don't make you worry)

Its not that AA2153 want to underestimate you but as someone who has a demanding work around the whole body he knows how bad things truly are so he just can't help but worry about your safety

With time he will just learn that he can't be there for you all the time and with the condition of this world, you have to learn to be independent and to protect yourself as much as you can, so he just forces himself to hold back and let you do things on your own, still everytime he comes across you always offer you a smile and ask you how you have being doing (at the end he still offer you help everytime he can since he is in love)

As much as AA2153 tries to don't be so worried all the time for you for yours and his own sake everytime he gets to see that you have injured himself he feels like his heart stop for a moment, imediatly asking you if you are alright, just hoping that is not a deep wound (because if it is he will not be able to handle the anxiety and will just forgot about his work for being worried about you)

U-1196

U-1196 is more than aware of the conditions of the world you live in, she is always working hard to try to protect this world and even when she is devoted to her work she isn't blinded by her responsabilities, she doesn't have much troubles to take a moment off if she has the chance

U-1196 is quite aware of herself and her feelings, she doesn't stop herself from feeling and being affected for what happens around but she doesn't forget about her work and what she has to do, thats why even when she didn't exactly thought about love she takes the fact that she had fell in love quite natural and without much troubles, but even when she doesn't deny her feelings she will not act in them for a while

If you two just see each other a few times, running in each other when you two are on work then U-1196 wouldn't even try to act on her feelings, she is too busy and doesn't want to force you to be in a relationship when having little time to spare, but if you two work together or even have jobs that make you two cross paths way too often then she would try to get to be your friend and get close at first

Despite being in love U-1196 won't think much on those feelings, or at least thats what she likes to think because no matter how much she tries to stay profesional she can't help but want to be close to you everytime you two cross paths, or how she instinctively step in front of you whenever there is danger, or even how she can feel quite jealous whenever she sees someone being way too close or friendly with you

U-1196 is painfully aware of the constant danger that the world have for any living creature in here, but you being quite clumsy just make her worry more, she was already quite protective by nature due her job but this trigger her quite often and make her feel troubled, even if she tries to forget about her feeling for the sake of both everytime she gets to see you being being clumsy or even injured she is imediatly trigger and can't stop herself from offering you a hand

U-1196 tries really hard to don't let her feelings affect her job or professionalism but she just can't help it, sometimes she let herself act on her feelings to shield you or worry for you and yet when there is inminent danger she always manage to focus completely do her job (and if you thank her, showing true gratitud or even admiration she will be incredibly flustered, even if she doesn't show it so directly)

as someone who has been playing mysme since the release and developed a hyperfixation as soon as i first laid eyes on the edgy mysterious twink, i just want to say how annoying i find the soft retcon of Saeran's redesign.

the deal with his eye colour and hair colour has never been explained throughout the 9 years of the game's existence so the fandom developed their own crazy theories about the elixir genetically changing his appearance, which i was sure was fanon bullshit up until the Ray After Ending release.

and you know what, okay, him still looking like Ray/Unknown/Evil!Saeran in the AE might be chalked down to very little time passing since he was rescued from the cult. what i find more annoying is the new official arts consistently depicting him with the white hair in what is clearly intended as post-canon content. do they really think we won't be able to tell the twins apart if they both had red hair???

just look at the 707 AE Saeran. what a beautiful little tomato. the red hair is such a clear and natural sign of him accepting both himself and Saeyoung and healing from the years of brainwashing and hatred.

does the red colour clash with his pale skin? maybe, a little. but should you really pick aesthetics over essence when you are writing a story about IDENTICAL TWINS? a story where you have already defined the white haired, ghostly look as an unhealthy state of the character whose happy ending is about accepting his past and reuniting with his twin brother, whom he had been brainwashed to hate by the designated Evil Manipulating Story Villain?

in the originally released After Story for Saeran, following 707's route good ending, he looks like a washed out, unhealthily pale copy of Saeyoung. he is meant to look a little off-putting, because that's the literal visual depiction of his physical and mental state, which was amazing writing!

this is the healthy, default state of both characters, because they are identical twins. it was their separation that had started the tragic backstory for both Saeran and 707. on top of lying to the boys and forcibly separating them for no real reason other than Evulz™, Rika had altered Saeran's physical appearance, erasing all physical likeness to Saeyoung that she could. it doesn't really matter whether she had convinced Saeran that it would be safer for him to look different, if she had asked him to dye his hair and start wearing colored contacts or if she had painstakingly developed a chemical formula that would permanently change his eye and hair colour, as ridiculous as that particular theory is, the point is that looking the way Unknown does would certainly be associated by Saeran as a very dark place in his life. that would be the time when he had less agency over himself than he ever did, and we are talking about a person who was often physically restricted, starved and deprived of water by their primary caretaker since they were a child. other than MC in the Ray route, Saeyoung would be the only person who had ever cared about him since he was born, and Rika manipulating him into despising his brother, from Saeran's point of view after he learns the truth and has the time and safe space to self-reflect would be especially cruel. Saeran is naturally a very affectionate and loyal to a fault person, who is extremely insecure and believes he doesn't have anything else to offer to the person he cares about other than his loyalty.

for this reason, i firmly believe that whatever is the actual reason behind his hair and eye colour, Saeran absolutely would dye his hair red if anything just to show Saeyoung physical evidence of his forgiveness. my headcanon is that even if his hair does keep naturally growing out white, he would dye it for the rest of his life, so that his past as Rika's brainwashed lapdog can be left behind him, instead of buried in the nearest mirror.

for his eye colour situation, i still don't believe the colour was permanently changed, unless Rika was fucked up enough to make him go through a surgery treatment for that, but this is an angsty scenario for another day. my interpretation is that both twins have horrible eyesight from staring into phone and computer screens for 75% of their waking time, but unlike Saeyoung who had bitten the bullet and accepted he is blind without having glasses on, Saeran had started wearing colored contacts with prescription. considering this change had happened while under Rika's care, it's pretty obvious she would be the one to buy him the contacts, so the 'mint eye' fits the whole idea. this leaves several new points for interpretation though. first, Rika is the one who taught both twins to hack, so i am choosing to believe miss girl also has terrible eyesight but wears eye contacts because she is obsessed with always looking her absolute best and avoids touching glasses for this reason. Saeyoung's glasses being a fashion statement (as goofy as they may be) aside, knowing how awful Saeran was at taking care of himself while living in the cult, i am absolutely sure the 'damn bitch you live like this?' boy may have kept forgetting to take his contacts out before sleep but would keep pushing against the irritation and eye tiredness, because it would never occur to him to just. buy a pair of glasses.

which is how we end up with this scenario.

knowing the Choi twins' particular brand of soap opera drama, the whole thing would boil down to a misunderstanding. Saeran, who had never been taught actual self-care skills because all of his caretakers were either intent on murdering him, never learned these skills themselves, or some combination of both, would just keep wearing his old colored contacts even past the expiration date, because there is no Rika to order him a new pair and because it never occurs to him that his bad eyesight can be helped with clear contacts or a pair of glasses. Saeyoung, who is still a dedicated expert at self-loathing, would interpret Saeran's continued use of the mint colored contacts as yet another way to show him how much he hates him, refusing to share an eye colour with his twin unless he is asleep. the misunderstanding would continue on and on without either mentioning anything until Saeran's eyes are going red and he can't blink without crying so Saeyoung rushes him to an ophthalmologist and then MC bonks both of them over the head for their shared refusal to mention anything.

on a less related note but since i am writing a whole essay bitching about character design, let me once again mention Ray's route redesign. what was even the reason oh my god. he was already perfectly fine as Unknown. he is still Saeyoung's identical twin, why give him the huge moe anime girl eyes? i see the dedication to woobifying him as much as possible, but he was already Mr Woobie Worldwide as kid!Saeran, like??

look at this absolute ray of sunshine (ha). i promise we won't care for him any less if his eyes aren't twice are huge as his tsundere twin brother.

look at these pictures and tell me they didn't give my poor man a whole cosmetic surgery while preparing him for the Ray route. the game was never famous for their consistent art style, but at the very least, looking at the old art, you could tell the two characters were clearly intended as identical twins, when put side by side. from the Ray route onwards, Saeran is consistently depicted as Saeyoung's uwu bug eyed cutie little bwother :3

the one thing i do like about the chronological progression of his character design is the pipeline from Ray/Evil!Saeran to Unknown. since more time has passed in the main route, there are telling signs that Rika is not as controlling of Saeran as she was two years ago. this is starkly highlighted by her abandoning him/forcing him out of the cult in one of Yoosung's bad endings, but also pretty prominent in his physical appearance. Ray still believed himself to be ugly, but he was putting consistent effort into his appearance, in both identities. his hair is perfectly bleached and brushed, he is wearing those formal attires, even the Saeran identity is running around spreading mayhem in a perfectly tailored and ironed black suit.

two years later, Saeran is going on his infiltration missions in a leather jacket cuntily leaning off his tattooed shoulder (which i am 85% sure was his own idea that Rika wasn't involved in) with studded bracelets and leather chokers. knowing what we know of Rika, it's very hard for me to imagine her approving of this kind of style lmao. his hair is also in a much worse condition, having not seen brush in ages and not even wild in the style Ray route!Saeran's was or Saeyoung's naturally is, slightly longer, visibly damaged. the bleach job is a mess, leaving him with the famous pink tips that Ray was clearly missing.

the one thing i hate however is that in V's after ending, where he supposedly rescues Saeran and miraculously takes such a good care of him that it works better than therapy... his hair is still fucking white. this version of Saeran wanted to reunite with his brother more than any others did, and had more time to himself after being rescued from Mint Eye, and for some reason he or V just kept bleaching his hair? i can hear the choir of 'it's not that deep', but personally? yes, it is that deep. all of the non-Mint Eye endings for Saeran are inherently bound to be about change, and for a sweet uwu twin who is very explicitly transformed by their tragic backstory narrative, in a visual novel game i can't believe we only have two (2) cgs of adult Saeran with his natural hair colour, one of which doesn't even come from the in-game content.

Cheritz please release my boy from the contract forbidding him to change his appearance ever since he got his own route.

In conclusion, red haired!golden eyed!Saeran deserves rights and to be seen more

#like... if they could afford to give Yoosung a haircut and/or his natural hair colour back #to give Jaehee back her long hair #to give us several cgs of Zen with his hair down or even a wig #to give Vi long hair in his route and then a haircut in the AE #TO GIVE SEVEN SEVERAL CROSSDRESSING CGS #why is my poor boy Saeran robbed of his own eye and hair colour #thanks for coming to my ted talk about an otome boy's hair this was very important to my teenage self to put into words #mystic messenger #mysme #saeran choi
