"Are they into PDA?" - Dungeon Meshi Edition

content. multiple x reader, fluff

an. yknow i havent written in like a week ESPECIALLY for my beloved dungeon meshi so. here is this. I'm kinda using this too as like practice bc i have never written for a lot of these characters but I would love to try!

Let me know if you want me to do this for another fandom <3 or if i forgot some characters

Laios's Party

Laios - He can go 50/50. I think at the start of a relationship he’s really awkward about it (he’s not used to anyone being affectionate with him besides his sister). But as time goes on he starts to really get into it. He just loves finally feeling accepted and cared for it’s just 💕💕 yeah. He’s lovey dovey enough with you in public to make people cringe. And he doesn’t get it when people suggest he should cool it down. Laios’s PDA is never heated or anything. Just cute and romantic. He’s smitten.

Falin - Similar to Laios, but I think she’s more chill with it off the bat. Falin gets hit with that puppy love phase HARD when you first start dating so she’s all shy and her heart’s pounding but she’s only bashful because she’s just so into you!! post-chimera she becomes a lot more assertive and has less regard for others witnessing your PDA. She’s always sitting close to you, holding your hand, resting her head on your shoulder (or letting you rest your head on hers). I also think she has a habit of sneaking up on your and nipping your neck/shoulder.

Marcille - ENJOYS IT. Like…there is not denying it. Marcille loves PDA. You would think your hands are glued together or something my God when you two are walking she’s always holding yours and swinging your arms while humming a little tune AHHHH…of course her cheeks will be stained red though. You ask for a kiss in public and she’s squeaks out an “…okay.” (Then has to hype herself up and is timidly puckering her lips w her eyes squeezed shut comically tight). Anyways. Yeah. She’s a little obsessed with you okay.

Chilchuck - He’s more lowkey and chill about PDA. He admires other couples when he witnesses it “aaah, young love.” But I think Chilchuck is a bit too mature to just. Make out with you in public (now if he’s had a few beers. That’s different. Drunk Chilchuck is a different breed okay.) Chil will give you a goodbye kiss or hold your hand for a second and give you a gentle squeeze, but that’s about it when it comes to public affection. I think he shows his affection fr tho by buying you accessories to wear (scarves, rings, pouches, etc.).

Senshi - He’s not super affectionate in public in general but he doesn’t mind it. Like oh? You wanna give him a little kiss? Sure. That’s fine. But then when he realizes others witnessed it then Senshi gets bashful. Thank god he has that thick ass beard bc I know he’s blushing way too hard. He blushes really hard at any PDA between you two. It’s honestly super cute. :3

Izutsumi - No. Hard pass. Do not. It just makes her incredibly uncomfortable (honestly the idea of affection in general makes her feel weird bc Izu thinks she’s undeserving, but she likes you enough to try to love herself. For you.) I think Izu substitutes PDA with handmade things…like. One day after a little thinking and comparing you guys to other couples she’s a little nervous about you thinking she doesn’t like you/isn’t a good partner. So…you guys have matching necklaces she made instead. It’s just a pretty rock and some feathers tied clumsily in twine but! She’s trying! It’s a step in showing that Izu wants something to link you guys together to others.

Toshiro - (idc that he isn’t in the party anymore he just fits best here ok) Hear me the fuck out. Toshiro Nakamoto likes PDA. BEFORE YOU STOP READING HEAR ME OUT. I think it’s a huge deal w his characterization that Toshiro is really repressed and is learning to voice his needs/concerns/opinions/etc. and I think this also applies to like. Getting in touch with his desires. Toshiro desires to be loved and cared for and well. He enjoys actions of affection from you. They make him happy. And when he finds himself getting embarrassed about it…he thinks on it. Like why should he feel the need to not showcase this? Anyways, yes he enjoys it. But keep it classy 💕 He prefers to save anything more for when you two are alone.

Kabru's Party

Kabru - 50/50 like Laios. But Kabru’s initial dislike for PDA stems from his own insecurities. Like…Kabru is just still processing that he is capable of love and doesn’t have to basically set his own desires and needs to the side and sacrifice for others. After he jumps over that jump it’s smooth sailing though. (Kinda. Every now and then he gets hit w an insecurity episode). Kabru’s like a fantasy prince. He gives chaste kisses to your lips and forehead, kisses your knuckles…yeah. It’s cheesy, but from him it works.!

Holm - Average PDA enjoyer. Keeps it cool and classy in public. He doesn’t initiate a lot besides a gentle kiss to your forehead or patting your shoulder every now and then. He has no qualms with it, Holm’s just a really mature dude (plus with his religion I kinda think he values being respectful). But like. As soon as eyes are off you guys Holm is WAY more touchy and lovey. When mickbell and kuroo stay at his place he’s always a little miffed mainly because his privacy with you is SACRED to this man.

Mickbell - Says he likes PDA. Cannot handle being kissed without practically exploding. He’s so cringe (I love him). Mickbell the embodiment of that “first kiss” vs. “expecting a kiss with tongue” meme. But he’s the first kiss part. He likes to pretend he has any sort of experience (he does not) and any attempt at PDA leave him glowing red but in his mind he’s like heh…I was so cool. (He wasn’t)

Rin - NO. It’s a mix of bashfulness and her fear of doing something crazy via magic because of crazy emotions. But I think she desperately does crave affection. Being able to be treated like a normal girl and love and be loved with no issue. Yeah. You can probably sneak up on her and give her a smooch or something and she’ll be too stunned to react (thank goodness bc the explosion spell building up fizzles out before it can be fully cast)

Golden Kingdom

Thistle - Little pain in the ass he acts like he hates it but in reality he loves displays of affection. Like Thistle gets all red in the face and waves you off but then he’s blushing and kicking his feet like a schoolgirl when you’re out of sight. In my mind Thistle doesn’t do a lot of PDA (if any) but he’s most definitely writing about you in his poem books 💀 there’s likely books dedicated to you…and yes he’d die if you found out.

Yaad - In the most princely sense, yes. Yaad is very sweet. Polite. Demure. He kisses your hand as a greeting and may kiss your cheek if he’s feeling really crazy (omg). But he treats you like the most respectable being on earth. Absolutely adores you. PDA makes him blush and Yaad will have a cute little smile for a while afterwards and be in a good mood (Laios asks you to be affectionate w him particularly when he knows he royally messed up)

Canaries

Pattadol - DO NOT. Like maybe a cheek kiss is fine but Patty is working VERY hard to look like a formidable leader and when you distract her! She can’t! Plus the prisoners immediately start making fun of her! You guys gotta keep it cool around them. She still loves you though.

Lycion - This is weird but Lycion seems like the type of guy who can do sexual stuff in public with no issue but PDA? It makes him choke a bit. Only because he struggles SO much with self image + self worth so you doing an action just to show affection for him that doesn’t give you anything in return makes his heart skip a beat. Like damn? You really love him? That’s crazy. Anyways. It’s cute as fuck.

Fleki - I honestly don’t know what to say other than you could eat her out in front of a crowd and she wouldn’t flinch. She’s soooo touchy and all over you it probably makes people uncomfortable but she doesn’t give a fuck. She clings to you like a Koala with no issue (like she did to otta in that comic YEAH)

Otta - Yes but she’s going to be pretend chaste about it. Like Otta acts all down to earth in public but I can’t decide if it’s because she wants to tease you or pretend like she has any sense of self control. Once you’re desperate enough yeah you two will be making out in public’s

Cithis - Idk if this is against the grain but I think she’s a bit reserved about PDA. Not because of any bashfulness or whatever (she could give less of a fuck) but with her hinted past experiences with people not regarding her personal space and being weird to her. In my mind just. Cithis has some personal boundaries about being touched and stuff she doesn’t want to be crossed. That’s not stopping her from getting you off under the table with her foot though. (Insane.)

[yarrayora]

Idk how to explain properly, but I’m a really big fan of the dynamic you portray between Marcille and Falin. I’ve always loved . idk how to say.. divorce? trouble-in-paradise? arcs/portrayals that look at problems in otp, and yours is super interesting. Sorry if this is weird just wanted to say :)

not weird at all! im flattered, thanks!

i wasnt really into farcille at first, mostly i was just impressed an f/f ship managed to be the fandom's no1, basically proving that when two female characters in a mostly male dominated cast are allowed to bond with each others and be their own characters people will latch on to them

mostly though aro touden siblings is still my no1 and even back then i didnt care about shipping because any type of romantic relationship in dunmeshi is less interesting than the potential of political intrigue the worldbuilding set up (yes, even chilchuck's failing marriage is less interesting to me than how living in the dungeon was safer for the orcs than being neighbors to human civilization) (shocking, i know)

but it all changed when i saw the daydream hour about marcille thinking falin looks cute in feminine clothing while falin herself is obviously uncomfortable with it

i can't sleep. i have to think about this. i have to think about how it's their first love and their first relationship and one is going in blind while the other set up her expectations based on a harlequin romance novel. they are NOT in the same wavelength at all and neither of them are particularly good at communicating their intention, with falin who grew up a convenient kid because she thought it was the least she could do for her family and marcille who frankly speaking was used to being treated as someone superior back at the magic school

thank god kabru exists because who else is going to give them a real advice for their very real relationship? chilchuck will be like "okay just break up" while not seeing the mirror to his own relationship with his runaway wife. senshi, wise as he is, is never in a romantic relationship. laios would be like :((( you guys are fighting? and gets stressed out on his own which makes it even more stressful to the girls. namari is like. "i, uh, please talk to kabru."

anyway theres also the bonus comic about falin inviting marcille to watch daltian clan's opera adaptation and while there is something to say about marcille thinking the humans playing elves doesn't fit her aesthetic (and the difference of societal expectations of dressing up as a different race in dunmeshi universe compared to in ours) all i can think of is that in modern day au where daltian clan has a movie adaptation marcille has a tumblr blog where she posts Hate on the daltian clan movie tag and calling it criticism which it is but also not the place, girl, go to rotten tomatoes for that

falin also has a tumblr and she and marcille had no idea the other is a tumblr user. falin made a post like "just watched daltian clan with my gf i get why shes really obsessed with it now" and marcille, against her better judgement replies to the post like "really sorry that you were misled by your girlfriend like that, you should read the novels instead, it's way better."

laios who sees falin looking shocked at her phone asks whats up and then after receiving the answer says "wow sounds like a real jerk! just block them"

anyway thats my modern day farcille when there's no high fantasy problems involved

[beatboxing-puppy]

saw some posts on this website discussing what sort of videogames the dunmeshi characters would play and i think everyone is wrong. everyone is wrong except for me so im going to spell out exactly who plays what. putting it under a read more because im going on a damn tangent.

Laios: He's not a gamer he does not play games on purpose he will only ever play video games when his friends ask him to join them in their multiplayer things. One day tho Falin told him about Monster Hunter and now thats the only thing he plays aside from Spore and he has sunk countless hours into that damn game. Also he probably has played Some pokemon but he doesnt like PLAYING it he just likes it in concept he knows the name of all the pokemon

marcille: people keep saying she would be a cosy gamer playing animal crossing and stardew and other cute games ^-^ its so lalalaaaa NO!!!!!!! no she does not. Marcille plays games that stress her out on purpose marcille plays overwhelming micromanagey games like lobotomy corporation and rimworld and etc. She also likes games with deep lore and mysteries to discover. The only thing that doesn't fit in this category that she plays is Minecraft shes always in there CREATIVE MODE building virtual dungeons and other crazy shit. Also she plays on her work laptop with trackpad ok

Chilchuck: This one is for me. This one im just basing off my own dad ok. Chilchuck used to be a hardcore gamer in his youth but specifically he was playing stuff like world of warcraft and old school runescape he had really big setups so he could run several instances of the game at once on all his alt accounts so he could beat a boss by himself and he was really good at it. But then he had kids and didnt have time for this sort of thing so he stopped playing videogames aside from occasionally helping his daughters beat a super hard mario level. Later in life he probably discovered some shitty little low-commitment phone game like pokemon go or pikmin bloom or some daily sudoku puzzle thing and he plays it every day but its not that big a deal. He has been pressured by his friends and daughters to make a roblox account but he hasnt played it at all.

Senshi: THIS guy is the one that plays animal crossing. He logs in when he can but hes not on that every day grind. Also he doesnt play the newest one he doesnt play horizons he plays one of the DS ones. Wild world probably. He either doesn't like or doesn't know about the nintendo switch. Whenever one of his villagers say that they want to leave he'll nod solemnly and say smth like "Well... I suppose it'd be selfish to ask ye to stay, friend... Just promise me you'll stay safe and never forget me... Go and explore the world. Wish ye the best." Plus his island would be covered in weeds. He also has some mobile games he enjoys angry birds and candy crush and crosswords (gotta keep the brain in shape!) but other than that he doesn't videogame much because he prefers board games and tabletop stuff he isnt too jazzed about all this modern technology plus a console or a laptop and all that gaming equipment is a lot to lug around and hes a nomad he would NOT have that shit

Falin: Now FALIN is the cosy gamer. kind of. Falin plays animal crossing new horizons sometimes and has fun making a bad island on purpose. Very mildly "bad" tho the worst she'll do is use the drawing feature to hide a giant penis on the beach or whatever. Or she'll give her villagers silly outfits. She also plays minecraft (either skyblock or she makes a new world and explores and builds a couple houses and then forgets about it and makes another new world) and roblox (likes 'trolling' strangers by dressing up funny and acting kind of strange in roleplay servers but she's never actually mean or anything.) But the big thing she likes is story-driven indie rpgmaker games. She's the person who will say shit like "Yeah I played Blums Booglies the quest for Big Dinners and it was so good I cried for 9 hours" completely unironically.

kabru: social gamer like laios but the games he plays on purpose are the sims (he likes to cause them problems) and online multiplayer games (he likes to peoplewatch). I can also see him doing absurd and tortrous challenge runs of games like No items no pokecenter one type hardcore nuzlockes. im correct

izutsumi: ACTUALLY trolls people on roblox. And she plays needlessly gory flash games. Maybe she calls people dumbfucks over valorant voice chat sometimes

The final meshi

(reading the final chapters for the first time)

(Previous post)

Man chapter 95 make me wanna cry

So much father daughter bonding energy here

I love chilchuck so much

I love how everyone just misunderstands the question XD

I also lodt how marcille is fine with her fate and is like "yay besties!" With the elves who are gonna imprison her, lol

Man these pages are gonna make me cry i love them so so so much.

I like how marcille learns that she can't make everyone's lifespans longer just like that so she learned what she had been doing this whole story because of senshi and the others 😭

KAHSBSHAJSAYA 😭😭😭

Chapter 95 is probably my favorite of these final chapters, it gives us a final impression of all the main cast and what's changed about them.

That last pannel makes me go ajsgskaahaba

This reminds me of that one pannel of chilchuck i keep seeing

Even at the end of the manga, kui brings uo interesting things to think about in her world, such as what does chimera meat contain? Would some ingredients be toxic to other races?

Marcille blushing so much at eating her girlfriend XD

Also i heard so much about chilchuck doing marcille's hair and i thought that maybe it would be a few pages long. I really wanted a bonding between them especially since they've been at eachother's thoats the entire series, but alas, its one page and i was slightly dissapointed. I was hoping we at least got one pannel where we see chilchuck doing her hair

(Dadchuck :D)

Dang im gonna cry again :(

Ive never been so sad to see one of these end notes

Ahh!! this chapter page looks so nice !!

Also dadchuck vibes (im so sorry i keep mentioning it, but i just cannot stop seeing it)

XD i love the "*please don't acctually do this"

Dang...

Also that first pannel on that second page looks so good

Oooh the first page is so cool

And the second page is so cute!! 💖

This is hilarious XD: falin's nice greeting, shuro's blush, namari's awkwardness, chilchuck's disgust and marcille's pure, hatered filled deadpan.

(Also like how its just characters from laios' first party)

Sigh... like brother, like sister

This pannel is a wonderous piece of art

ahh dungeon food... delicious in dungeon

BRO

I CANT BELIEVE ITS IVER

I DONT WANT IT TO BE

I love this series so much, its probably one of my favorites and im so sad to see it go. Totally buying the adventurer's guide once i can buy it (i want to have something physical from this series) so there may be anther post or two of these but that will be after probably a long while

Final thoughts:

But i love kui's detail in her world and characters, there is so much depth and questions in every corner to develop further. The story was syper engaging and i loved every step of the way. I was told that this series was goofy but then goes super serious for the rest, but it actually did an amazing job at switching between comedy and seriousness quickly but im a way that seems completely natural. (I also adore the art style)

She also did an amazing job at making me interested in ALL of the characters. Usually in series they introduce so many characters all of a sudden and dont develop them that well at all, but still expect me to be invested in them, so the series remains just have a ton of scenes of these new characters interacting but are so shallow that i skim super quickly over them, and then i fall out of love with the entire series as a whole and have to drop it because im getting bored, but kuo manages to keep me invested with every character introduced, so im invested in them almost as much as the main cast and love them all (also the character designs are all super creative. You probably saw those posts where people say you cant play the "find the main cast game" with dunmeshi because of how great the designs are.

Man this is such a good series

Dungeon Meshi Volume 14 Part 3

Eat or be eaten. There is no hierarchy. Eating is, quite simply, the exclusive privilege of the living.

Come on, it's time to eat! What shall we have today?

I think the real takeaway from Dungeon Meshi is that cannibalism is a firm "maybe".

Slurp!

I remember seeing a post a while ago about Dungeon Meshi being fatphobic, and while I kinda see where they're coming from, I don't really agree. It's not exactly controversial to advocate for healthy eating and moderate exercise. While the body types could be a bit more diverse, especially in the main cast, Kui clearly has respect for people of various body types. Have you seen some of the daydream hour stuff?

They know him so well. Chilchuck in particular I think understands best. After all, his succubus becomes what he most desires, but it isn't what he wants.

I love this grumpy old gnome who spits nothing but facts.

This whole sequence is very nice.

So, I know this isn't literal, but do you think Falin would have been able to fully expel the dragon's soul? But even if she could, she chose kindness instead. And that's really nice.

I wonder what the demon thinks about all this. Has it actually learned any sort of lesson from all this? Either way, it at least seems to be taking its defeat as graciously as one would hope.

A precious image. It's all been leading up to this.

So, all the changes I've noticed. First, she has feathers covering most of her body. Some haven't grown in yet, but the coverage seems to match her chimera form, leaving her hands, feet, head, and tummy bare. She has large canines. She might have enhanced strength, though she was known for bashing heads in before her transformation too, so it's hard to tell. She also has normal eyesight, as opposed to her previous nearsightedness.

God, she is just like me.

WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?!?!

Everyone loves pizza.

I still say familiars are the best solution. He can both make his own monsters, and observe real monsters through the eyes of his creations.

Oh, quit your bellyaching. A quick detox spell will have you right as rain.

An adorable image, and a fitting ending for an amazing manga.

Of course, it isn't quite over yet.

Glad to see she's doing well. Cat's would totally do this if they could talk.

This is so cute. Just like when you were in school!

Was it ever established what the heck living armor eats? Most shelled mollusks rely mostly on filter feeding, but that doesn't work so well in a terrestrial environment. Then again, we know monsters can supplement their diet with mana, and the mana in this dungeon awakens Kensuke later, so maybe they're super efficient to the point that they only need mana. And iron.

I love these dumbasses.

An important image.

Have I mentioned I love the dynamic these guys have?

One final precious image to end things off. What are the odds his wife is just off-screen?

Thanks to everyone who joined me for this tasty journey. I still have some other stuff cooking, so stay tuned! The Laios Got Eaten AU might be a bit. I'm struggling to figure out how they defeat Thistle or the Demon without Laios. I also have another AU I might write involving an OC. We'll see.

Have a great day, and may all your Meshi be Dungeon.

[sanwrote]

someone in my dash is liveblogging the succubi chapters in dunmeshi. and. damn. i love that part so much.

i specially like how revelatory the conjured images are about the ways all of the characters think about desire.

chilchuck's is the most straightfoward one: a halfling blonde beauty. it's absolutely what i thought the chapter would be about (figuring out their "types", the traits they find attractive suddenly manifested as reality). we as an audience also have zero confirmation if this entity looks at all like his ex-wife because of course chilchuck would never confirm or deny that.

marcille's gets a little more abstract. marcille doesn't conjure someone that could be a real person trying to seduce her, but this specific fictional character that she likes (the half elven guy from her romance novels). marcille's succubus has been dissected to death but i really dig how it reinforces things we know about marcille: she loves fictionalized narratives (i mean, she's always speculating about other people's loves lives the way one would interact with a story) and expressing her desires in the relm of fantasy. that guy is also her favorite half elven hero so, as a half elven woman, this is a form of self love for her. it's cute and also hilarious because LOOK at him.

laios' is..... honestly incredible. there's so much going on there. he sees marcille, implying that he's subconsciously attracted to her. but there's a catch: of course succubi marcille is not only secretly a monster but she also claims to possess the ability to turn him into a monster. it's one of two instances where we learn of how much marcille's necromantic transgression left a mark on him (the other being the doppleganger chapter, where he envisions marcille the way she looked on the day she ressurected falin). here, he sees marcille as an actor of transformation and that's the way in which he finds her desirable. super interesting stuff. and, well, there's also his furry inclinations and his wish to become a monster himself. but that part is much more obvious.

izutsumi's succubi are my favorite ones, though. she sees a black panther (something her cat half finds attractive! lmao) and also what her human side thinks a loving mother would look like. it's so bittersweet. much like chilchuck's succubus, it's impossible to tell if this is what izutsumi's actual mother looked like or if it's just a mix of half remembered memories and her own longing.

i think this gets even sadder with the information that izutsumi is a cat with a human soul trapped in it. izutsumi wants to be human, longs for humanity, but her human body is long gone. if she were to separate her human soul from her body (like she wishes), she would just be a cat. and this is the thing that always makes me a bit emotional while revisiting this section.

001 dungeon meshi or 002 susahao :3

i sense a long post so this goes under a cut

| dunmeshi |

Favorite character: I can't choose for my mental health. sorry. I love them all too much

Least Favorite character: ughgh Toshiro. next question

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): ooh...5? Okay so Farcille, Labru (it's not a must-have for me but I like it romantically or platonically), Laios x monsters, Chilchuck's messy relationship with his (ex)-wife, and lastly. Cithis x me

Character I find most attractive: goddd there are so many hot people in this manga and I'm aroace. it depends on the day but top contenders in no particular order are Kabru, Marcille, Laios, Cithis (see above), and Falin. and we can't not love Kui sensei for giving us the Senshi fanservice the world needed.

Character I would marry: I would marry no one but...objectively speaking? OF COURSE Senshi

Character I would be best friends with: Chilchuck !!

A random thought: The moment where Mithrun cries because "even vegetable scraps have their uses" made me feel like I'd been revived from the dead. dunmeshi is so good.

An unpopular opinion: hmm I don't really know?

My canon OTP: canonically no one like. "ends up together" in the super official sense and I'm happy with that! however farcille can count...i think anyways. it's not even coding it's plain as day

Non-canon OTP: like i said, any ship qualifies !

Most badass character: Senshi, because truly what is more badass than caring for the dungeon ecosystem and your friends' health and wellbeing by cooking them a balanced diet out of monsters. all with a single cooking pot too

Pairing I am not a fan of: Izutsumi x anyone. that girl doesn't want a romantic interest nor does she need one <3

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): ...no one? I'm gonna finish my reread soon but I highly doubt I'll find one that I'll think was screwed up

Favourite friendship: The whole party warmed my heart. that hug healed me. ALSO honorary mention to Mithrun and Kabru because again the feeling of being restored and learning to feel again is so real. honorary honorary mention to Izutsumi and the rest of the party because that is the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life

--

|susahao|

when or if I started shipping it: "when I fall under your intense gaze..." I very nearly pointed at the screen and went "YOU'RE BISEXUAL!!"

my thoughts: they invented sapphism actually

What makes me happy about them: I love how Haori does not fucking hesitate to keep flirting with Ryutaro upon finding out that he is in fact Susato. what a queen

What makes me sad about them: the fact that their reunion in-game occurs when Susato is coming back, rushed, on what she assumes to be a family tragedy; and what she finds instead is Haori having been through a horrifically traumatizing event in her absence. both of these girls trying their best to study and have careers in Meiji Japan. the world makes it so fucking difficult for them.

Things done in fanfic that annoys me: it's not so much a specific thing done in fanfic as like, an overarching trend that people tend to fluffify them a ton. i get it they're cute and lighthearted but they're also sixteen-year-olds in a world that is unfair to them. that being said, i also don't like the idea of making them 'tragic' for the drama of it all. let them be happy, but also give them depth basically!

Things I look for in fanfic: i don't read a ton of dgs fic these days but i look for good Haori background and characterization

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Gina, Maria...and that applies to either of them lol

My happily ever after for them: marriage marriage fraud (I can't take credit for this idea, since I first heard it from Seven ofc! but it's so real to me)

[ask game]

[justsomeoneintoomanyfandoms]

Hi hi!! May i please request a romantic genshin and hsr matchup? I prefer to be matched with a guy <3

My pronouns are she/her and Im a girl. im 4'10 (i havent grown since i was 12 so uhm😭😭😭) My MBTI is INTP, 4w5. My friends describe my personality to be cat-like. i bite people i like for example on their arm, cheek, neck etc etc. i like knocking things over, being affectionate, and am sleepy. (this is super ironic because my name is Faline and it means feline/cat-like!!) i like getting into trouble in and out of school (i may or may not be banned from a few places ahaaaa-) i can be stupid and reckless uhmmm.. im definetly not smart. My mood changes very, very quickly. i can go from 0-100 real quick. i am not afraid to say what i want. Im quite loud around the people i like and dont like affection from people im not close with.

My aesthetic is best described as the downtown girl aesthetic. My hair is basicaly like ochako urarakas from MHA soo theres that. i have brown eyes and my skin is a light brown. (we love growing up in an asian household and wanting to be whiter ahaaaa.. :( )

My favourite color is purple. i LOVE purple so much its such a pretty colour i could talk about it forever. i love drawing, photography, baking, watching anime and k-dramas, listenin to music and shopping!! im definetly more of a nighttime person and i love animals. animals over people anyday.

I don’t like school… I’m not a very good student and the best part of school is seeing my friends, for sure. i never pay attention in class and end up walking out the class, zoning out or drawing allover my notes or on the table. i skip classes alot too.

I think that’s all, thank you in advance!

Hi Faline! Thank you for your request! Sorry it took a while. I hope you like your matchups!

In Genshin Impact, I match you with...

Itto can appreciate your dislike for school. I don’t think he’s been to school a day in his life. Everything he knows has either been taught to him by Granny Oni or he’s learnt by himself.

Likes your catlike behaviour. He thinks it’s sweet, even if you do bite him sometimes. Just be warned, he will bite you back. He knows he has sharp teeth so he’ll never bite hard enough to hurt though.

Itto absolutely would watch k-drama with you! He would get so invested in the story and characters.

The height difference! Itto loves giving you piggybacks if that’s something you’re comfortable with. Especially if you’re at an event like a festival. He’ll lift you up so you can see over the crowd.

He would love eating anything you bake. He’s convinced your baking is the best in all of Teyvat. He’d love to help out sometimes but it’s up to you whether you want the company and the mess…

Please take photos of him. He’s oblivious half the time so you’d get really good candid shots. You might also be able to sell some of them to the news after he gets arrested for the third time in a month.

In Honkai Star Rail, I match you with...

Dan Heng doesn't know how to feel about your cat-like tendencies. On one hand, he finds them cute and endearing. They’re a part of who you are as a person and he wouldn’t change that for the world.

But when you knock something off his desk for the fourth time that day, he really wonders…

Okay, this guy absolutely sees gentle bites as a form of affection. He’ll return any bites you give him.

He’s so glad you like night time. He’s a night owl and stays up very light almost every night. He likes his own company but it’s night having someone else there with him when he’s reading late at night.

Because of his passion for the archives, Dan Heng will do his best to get you interested in learning. He can appreciate that school doesn’t always teach things in the best way.

But he’d be grateful if you spend some time with him learning about a variety of different topics.

Opinion on the dunmeshi ladies? I haven't seen you post about them yet and I'm so curious on your thoughts about the feral monster fucking lesbians

GDJSJJDJD that's because senshi and chilchuck are women to me 💀💀

IGXOG ASIDE FROM THAT I feel like ive??? Reblogged art of them that I see that I like... I haven't read the manga I'm afraid but I have seen most of the anime so far and it's awesome! I haven't really talked about anyone tbh I just see a good art and I throw it up on my fridge (my blog)

I THINK THEYRE VERY NEAT AND AWESOME WHITE GIRLS. they're sick as fuck I love that Marcille fucking specializes in dark magic it's awesome I loved seeing her covered in blood and I love falins whole deal I like how crucial she is 2 the plot and that she gets turned into a big fuckoff dragon thing

I love her boobs as well.

ASIDE FROM THAT I'll b honest I don't care for most of the main cast aside from like. Idk senshi and that's mostly bc I find him sooo cute/handsome and imagine that he's a he/him lesbian -_- also chilchuck... bc he's a tired cunt :/

I do think everyone is so well written and I like them a lot they are just not rly enough to make me like. Super psycho abt them yet. Perhaps I just need more time!

I LOVVVE a lot of side characters like namari is so so sexy and swag. I think kabru is so interesting and sexy.. most of the side characters we meet are just so charming and cool. Haven't met the cat girl yet but I know I'll like her. Toshiro is a huge dork I like him a lot so far

BUT YEAH probably unpopular opinion I just haven't really gotten super attached to some of the main charas yet so while I do support the main girls they just arnt my personal cup of tea personality wise?? Idk. If they were more toxic I think I'd have an interest in them but that's literally not the point of their relationship I think LOL. Don't think its like just marcille or falin I think I honestly like them more than Laios. I do not like him that much and that could also be the fandoms fault lol.

Either way, I'm gonna wait and see how things play out before I form a more solid/concrete opinion on characters but as of right now they're just kinda floating around in my brain!

THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!!

[crossf1recreat1ons]

I feel like sharing some YouTube channels that I watch with you guys (most of them are art related XD)

First one is Alex Fictus. They make shorts of them drawing prehistoric animals, as well as giving some fun facts about them. Also the artwork they make are little stickers you can buy at their Etsy store, so that’s pretty cool ^^

Second channel is Daydreaming Birdie. They are the creator of the animated webseries CRiTORA (which is about a bunch of virtual creatures living in an island getting into wacky hijinks and such, while also staying safe from ViRUSES (the main antagonists of the series)). There is also other cool stuff found in their main channel, as well as some alt channels, and even a whole wiki about the universe the series take place in.

Heads up though that it’s a FANDOM Wiki (and you know how it is with its ads), so I recommend an adblocker if you want to browse through it.

Third channel is Faline San. He usually makes vlogs about events in his life (and also does illustrations on the side) and I think he’s really funny. I don’t know how to describe it myself, but his editing style and sense of humor makes me giggle ^^

Next up is Gabriel Feitosa. They usually make shorts about dog grooming (where they stylize customers’ dogs to all sorts of wacky patterns and themes) and I think it is super cool and I haven’t seen anyone else do something like that. For anyone concerned, they said in a good amount of their shorts that the dyes used are pet friendly (or something like that (I’m no expert on pet grooming or anything like that, but that’s what they said)). Anyway, I think they are really cool at what they do.

Last, but not least is SorrelsSouls. She usually makes shorts of her painting a bunch of frog models in different themes (or as she and her fanbase calls them “froggers.”) I think they are super cool and I really want to do modelling and such sometime in the future ^^

So those were some YouTubers (or at least YouTube channels) that I watch and want to share with you guys. I might make a part 2 where I include more channels, but I just felt like talking about them and want to share.

[vii-spider]

btwwwwww some elaboration on this bc i mentioned it in the tags

uhhh so basically! i was thinking either mithrun cut her lower down or some manner of magic bullshit happened that made her keep the dragony bits. either way! instead of forming human legs, her body regenerated as a smaller version of her chimera form

she woke up and was like "hey. um. what the Fuck happened? like i'm not complaining because this is sick as FUCK, but. like. Huh?" bc honestly with as much as she and laios have in common i can't imagine she wouldn't think being a bigass monster is the sickest shit ever. marcille goes down a bigass guilt spiral over this because she can't bring herself to keep killing and reviving falin to make her "right" and eventually just. her feelings for falin start clashing with her guilt and she confesses and then Awesome Yuri Moment. and since he's the king, this also spurs on laios to (with marcille's help obv bc he's A Dumbass) draft new laws protecting beastkin, which also ends up helping out ppl like izutsumi

idk exactly what she would do, but she would definitely not be an adventurer anymore lol and would PROBABLY live w marcille

uhhhhh some other stuff,

because of her weaker musculature and how much larger her human portion is compared to the dragon portion of her body, i'm thinking her wings are non-functional. kind of a 'maybe', but, i can't super see a build w these proportions being able to fly all too well

i don't think i did a great job of showing it, but she keeps the fangs and slit pupils since i just think that's cute

proportionally, a lot more of her diet is meat now, since it's safe to assume the dragon was a carnivore. i'd imagine she has to consume, like, around twice the average person's worth of food now too, since she has so much more mass

mentally she's still 100% falin, if a bit shaken up from dying twice and then suddenly becoming half dragon. she does have dragon instincts, though, and sometimes they'll kind of overtake her (ex. seeing a rabbit scamper by, snapping to attention, pupils narrowing, lunging for it immediately). with how her mindscape was portrayed as the dragon pinning her to the ground with one foot so she could barely do anything, and then mid-revival it shrank down to just a little hand-sized freak, i'm imagining that, here, inside her mind would be like. human falin and the dragon is medium-dog-sized, it's not an active detriment but sometimes it drags her around and thus gets her lost in her instincts

i don't think they're ever shown interacting in canon, but i'd imagine that now she has more of of a bond with izutsumi, since now both of them are like, very obviously not fully human and since falin is new to it she's all "ugh xyz fucking sucks" and izu is like "god tell me about it i've had to endure years of this shit" in a Very rare instance of her being willing to show a pinch of compassion

idk if i'll write or draw much for this, i've been slowly hacking away at "pov you are marcille writing down all your unfiltered thoughts on how this shit plays out" but idk if that'll really Go anywhere lol

i'm autistic again. trying 2 understand how the Fuck 2 draw falin

[starsweepers]

...i wanted to challenge myself. listing my muses in order of who i love most and who is most fun to play. by oc and canons. you can ignore this, i just did this for fun.

most fun to play canons in order:

nari ( most flexibility and able to do more than my animal muses )

mittens ( such good, dramatic plots, her threads actually vary )

red ( same as mittens but slightly harder due to fighting her awful canon and then being selectively mute )

pipp ( i just have fallen in love with her personality and she's flexible including her human verse )

georgette ( she is SO FUN, that personality, and it spices up her threads )

fei fei ( flexible, lots to work with post movie )

misty ( lower than fei fei mainly because i'm still figuring her out, no human verse yet, and so mlp tends to be difficult to slot sometimes )

lady ( she's only so low because honestly 95% of her threads are the same thing... i adore her but her threads can get boring )

olaf ( honestly just when i'm in a mischievous mood, he is THE BEST )

lottie and chang'e ( honestly they're kind of the same in a way. lottie is only private because people request her a lot and her threads got boring real fast )

faline ( only because she's so tricky to put in most situations )

most beloved canons in orderish:

lady and mittens ( i've never delved into films as much as theirs to dissect as much as i could. they're tied because while lady is my longest ever fave dis muse, mittens is incredibly important to me )

georgette and lottie and pipp ( spoiled girls who actually can be good hearted? super important to me like there's so much more to them )

nari ( i think the story that should have happened for her is very intriguing and good to know... she's a story of family love but also family abuse )

olaf ( ....idk i just love a snowman )

misty ( she needs love... )

fei fei ( what a gOOD STORY )

red ( she's only low because her actual canon sucks and i'm not 500% confident in the story i made for her. i have a lot of thoughts and feelings for her but compared to the others, she as a character isn't as high )

chang'e ( she's a bit expected. but really love the delve into the movie version of her and learning to move on )

faline ( ....she's just cute but as a character not too deep )

most fun ocs to play in order:

dawn ( her backstory may be simple but she as a character is more complex than she looks, and she's a challenge because as someone completely abled, i have to remember and think about the world through her condition )

laila ( she's spicy like idk how else to explain )

grayson ( very spicy )

piper and faith ( honestly they're just opposite ends of the spectrum. but both complex. i just really enjoy their psyches )

brent ( his story and world is exciting and intriguing. he's lower only because males are a bit tricky for me and so his muse is finicky at times )

andi and sasha ( still figuring them out! )

most beloved ocs in orderish:

dawn and laila ( i can't explain i just. them. my two longest running ocs on this blog )

piper ( my oldest oc ever... at least that is still in use )

faith ( like?? the cutest? )

gray ( i think about him a lot but he's not quite perfect )

brent ( he's only lower because he was developed with the intent to work in a world. molly was actually meant to be the main muse but he ended up working out better. i adore him, but i'm pickier with him )

sasha and andi ( same as above. they're new, still figuring them out, they're fun but not quite that special to me yet )

[bbunnybirdd]

You post a lot about Dungeon Meshi and I was wondering if you'd recommend it and what the plot is? It looks interesting ^-^

Oh definetly!! Dungeon meshi is mayhaps my favourite manga. Not to mention the soon coming anime!! Excited!!!! This is an advertizement essay now.

The start is very lighthearted (minus like the starting premise being that the protag's sister gets eaten by the dragon and that's why they have to rush back down to the dungeon to save her since resurrection is a thing) but it will get uhm. It will go to places. And on their way back to the lower levels of the dungeon they will cook various meals of monsters that they come across (since they didn't have time to get new resources)! That's where the manga's name comes from. (haha going in for funny monster food comedy oh oops THAT'S KIND OF A LOT GOING ON HUH)

So what I've gathered so far, I've seen many turn down reading by just seeing Laios and being like "oh boring protag man" but nope. He's a living monster encylopedia and yearns for info about the monsters all the way to their taste. He can imitate a dog perfectly. He thought a man who hated him was his best friend. I love him so much.

Marcille first seems very soft uwu babey but no, we casually learn that she knows magic like,, actual necromancy. Not just resurrection. :) and she's actually quite unhinged. Also she's girl best friends with Falin (the sister of Laios I mentioned earlier) and wants to save her very much.

Chilchuck is there to just do his work but gets attached to rest of the party. Also the fact that he's a half-foot and other races tend to mistake him for tall-man child when he's actually almost 29, has 3 children and his wife left him. Epic divorce man.

(for comparison half-foot live to be around 50 when elves can live to hundreds and this is important plot wise later on but would also be a spoiler so)

Senshi is the "parent" of the group helping rest of the party to go to lower levels + is mainly the one teaching them about cooking (also we learn through his backstory that there's an extremely heart wrenching reason why he feels the need to keep everyone fed) He's also the fanservice of the series and the only character we've seen pantyshots of.

Izutsumi joins the party way later and she has a cat soul bound with her own and she wants to break the curse that made this so. However later on we get hints that she's becoming more okay with having two souls. Also she's. A cat girl. Like not the usual depiction of just having ears and tail, her behaviours are very affected by the second soul.

Izutsumi sensing a ghostie:

Falin is Laios' sister and very loved and to describe her,, she would show you a cool bug she found. I can't tell too much about her without spoiling major plot points :-)

Oops my hand slipped.

+++ Ryoko Kui's art is very distinct in itself, her character design is pretty much always mentioned when talking about dunmeshi!! And the world building!!!

Also people are being horny over the winged lion..,,

This is not only my blog's desktop version's background but also my actual desktop image (tinified for tumblr):

Heartwarming moments ;_;

+ special mention to characters I didn't even mention but you get to meet by reading!

So I might really like this series.

Bonus, this super cute comic set in our world from the mangaka's blog (izutsumi is a picky eater):

[starsweepersold]

SHIP/PLOTTING WISHLIST

platonic and romantic !!!  most of these are ship suggestions but also just some regular plots too for most muses!

DAWN

babysitters/nannies for dawn that become one of her bestest friends in life other than storm and her family because cat and scott need help around the house so they hire someone to help!

older muses who need some cheering up so little dawn is their spot of sunshine

superhero muses saving little dawn from being kidnapped.  maybe in her daughter of superhero scott verse so she was being used against her dad and the other muse helps

teen dawn with people who need love.  girls who hide behind badassery but just want something soft, boys who need help stepping back in line, sad people, whoever.  let her love.

royalty dawn being nudged to perhaps marry a prince of a kingdom but falling in love with the guard/brother/sister/servant or something instead.

someone adopting abandoned dawn ( see verses )

angel dawn saving someone!  growing up their friend and little guardian angel!

dragonborn dawn with other magical creatures or dragons!

miraculous dawn, pirate-mermaid, hogwarts, or pokemon dawn aus!

LAILA

laila with other rich/famous people going out and living it up.  maybe having some friends with benefits moments... maybe more ( for males, at least, sorry womens but laila has a type fjasklda )

laila and super close girl friends just living it up too, though, being amazing and supporting each other in life and relationships and laila making sure her friends are treated like the queens they are

laila being corrupted by bad boys

android laila falling in love but knowing it’s not right for someone to be with her because she’s not human

junior is killed au where laila is the complete opposite of who she is normally.  paranoid and sad and restrained and a bit overly serious, needing love and distractions from the truth and the two hells she endured

elf-unicorn, hogwarts, and werewolf laila aus

FAITH

faith is popular, give her lots of biffles.  baking friends, cheerleading friends, classmates, wHATEVER.  let them see how overworked she is and how little sleep but her putting them first if they’re having any problems and just not cARING.

muses lost in the forest and running into her forest spirit verse

i LOVE WEREWOLF FAITH COME PLAY WITH THE CUTE FLOOF, let her show your muse her magical world if they’re also magic or maybe accidentally!

famous singer, princess, and pokemon also could be fun !!!

GRAY

give gray some fans :D  or fellow actors.  or people who look up to him because his story made the news and he’s trying his best ( tm ) and he just wants to support others who are going through hell and need to know they can have a future.

i want gray to stumble around pretty girls.  pretty normal girls or pretty magic girls...  whether he’s normal or prince him.  ommmmg prince him needs a soft girl to help him out so much.

werewolf gray threads!

RED

season three red being a little troublemaker and pranking others but also having people just adopt her other than lance because she’s such a precious soul deep down.

same with modern red.  and older modern red being the strange, pretty homeless girl who no one knows how she’s getting by because she’s become such a talented thief, maybe stealing from a muse taking her in only to realize she actually likes them and returns the things later because she values their friendship or the like more.

wHO WANTS TO PLAY WITH MODERN WITCH RED? 8)  I NEED MORE OF THESE INTERACTIONS BECAUSE I REALLY, REALLY LOVE THIS VERSE.

i also made a version of red as a werewolf.  it’s MY version buuuut 8D

PIPER

i don’t really have aus for piper i need an excuse to make more!

give her pretty girls !!!  she is so weak for tough, strong characters but she also would be down for tender and emotional and just.  will make herself stronger to support them yES.

older brother relationships, she needs someone to look up to and to protect her and care for her and love her.  i have no idea yet how she’ll feel about guys so maybe but !!!  regardless they could be so close!

MITTENS

be her neighbor post movie and earn her affection with yarn balls and tuna.

MOLLY AND BRENT

help molly learn about the world again!  someone she can spat with or who will help her and guide her!!

nerd out with brent!  or your muse in trouble and him panicking because he’s been working out so much to be strong enough to be useful when others are in danger but still feeling so useless.

LADY

a muse taking the place of junior?  so they were the child growing up with lady.  awwww maybe an older lady, tired with age just still loving on her bby.

MIRA

always here for mira being soothed from her anger and just adopted and bring out the sweet, kitten side of her.  ooooor be the opposite and fuel her anger, help her find the last murderer to kILL HIM.

FALINE & GEORGETTE & OLAF & CHARLOTTE

nothing specific currently, so open to thoughts!  these muses have been very lax lately and have just done calmer threads.  still available for plotting however :D
