#Lemme know if you ALSO have any Mario personal struggles would LOVE to see more headcanons from people

[kakusu-shipping]

You’re all getting another unpromted headcanon dump because I’m very personally tired of the “Mario would hide his struggles and trauma post Movie from Luigi because he doesn’t want to look weak and keep up the appearance of the Strong Older Brother” take. Don’t Eldest Daughter Syndrome Mario. He and Luigi are a team. A pair. He would tell Luigi everything.

Anyway here’s everything I think Mario personally struggles with and would rely on Luigi for

The Mario movie put it very blatantly on the table that Mario’s a little touchy about his height. It’s probably more so because he’s use to being picked on as The Short Guy on the sports team rather than it really actually bothering him all that much. He’s just assumes someone calling him short is an insult. The only personal problem he has with it is being shorter than Luigi. They spent a lot of their childhood the same height, and Luigi being taller still messes them both up from time to time

This is another left over from Highschool; Mario and Luigi (accidentally) kind of fell into the trope of the Smart twin and the Sporty twin, with Mario being the ladder. This messed with his head in a way he couldn’t really articulate, being expected to be a Meathead like the other guys on his sports teams did actually cause his grades to go down, especially in Math which use to be his best subject, which of course caused a lot of concerned backlash from their parents, especially his dad. Now he has it locked in his brain somewhere he’s stupid when he’s not.

He’s bad with people. Luigi’s a lot more of a people person than he is. He has a hard time connecting to people, or making simple small talk. He can be pretty blunt, or awkward, and maybe a bit aggressive sounding, especially to someone not use to how loud and confidently he speaks. As he gets older he gets quieter, speaks less, falls into a much more comfortable selective mute life style, and it suits him much better than trying to fumble through talking to people. He prefers to listen

He’s definitely a workaholic, he’d gotta be busy busy busy all the time. A lot of people will see him run from one project to the next, never turning down a request for help with something, constantly juggling tasks and working on something in his spare time and think it’s all because he’s such a nice, hard working guy. But no. It’s the stress of not doing enough. Or because he anxious being alone. Luigi’s the only one who knows Mario will keep going till he crashes, and is the one to always stop him and remind him he’s doing enough, he’s enough. Take a break.

Mario’s always struggled with separation anxiety. He’s never been one for the whole concept of “alone time”, he’d much rather be near people he loves and trusts and can relax around. He use to joke it stems from being born first, those few moments before Luigi was born was more than enough alone time for a life time. He tries to wave it off occasionally, but it really is a problem. If he is ever left alone, say Luigi goes off on some grand adventure without him, he finds things to work on until he passes out, and then just sleeps and lays about until Luigi comes back.

Sakamaki Character Analysis: Cuntdelia's Children

continuing on to Cordelia's kids now. Again, they all need help in some form. Although full warning they aren't my favourites so I may not be as on point as I feel I was with Reiji and Shu.

Ayato:

So Ayato has a god complex and a narcissistic streak, why is that any why does that mean he needs the special care? Well his mum was abuisve, that's a fact. In the games we hear mentions of physical punishments as well as emotional manipulation, gas lighting, and all that other horrid stuff. Ayato is a ball of insecurities stuck in the way his mother forced on him. He has to be the best because she said she has to, and as a defense mechanism due to her constant criticism he developed his "I'm the best call me Ore-Sama" thing.

Now a lot of fanfics just see you the reader make fun of the ore-sama thing or be too depressed to even care about it, and lemme tell you why I don't think they'd actually the best thing for him. So let's say your mother, a primary care giver, puts you down all the time and makes fun of you. You grow up isolated and constantly feeling you aren't good enough but don't have anyone to talk to so internalize it all and put on an act. Then you get a person trying to date you or befriend you that does exactly what your mother did. Now when I put it like that do you see why the whole "pfft whatever oreo-sama" thing won't actually help. You'll end up dead when he snaps I'll bet money on it.

I think Ayato needs a partner who won't pander to him but won't put him down either. So when you don't want to make him takoyaki say "Not right now, I'll do it when I'm finished this level in Mario. Wanna play with me Ore-Sama?" don't say "Go do it yourself oreo-sama. Wait do you seriously not know how to make it? lol."

Furthermore push him safely. Ask for help making the takoyaki, start small with a "hey I can't reach this pan and you're super tall can you help?" as to slowly built up to "hey will you mix this sauce for me as I prepare the meat? I'll tell you what to add the ingredients are all there." I feel Ayato would benefit from this as he'll slowly realise he's learning how to do things. I think a big part of why Ayato struggles is that he was told he needed to be perfect first try and so he gets disheartened easily. Home boy needs compliments and you to not bring attention to his mistakes. Just be like "oh that's fine you can add more salt if it'd too sweet or sugar if it's too salty."

This goes for everything too he's gonna need someone who slowly teaches him, and trust me the day he realised he's learning he'll be greatfull, he won't show it much at the start but over time he'll get better. Like remember when Ayato slept with Yui in the anime? Sorta like that happens and he whispers a thank you when he thinks you're asleep. Then it slowly becomes a thing of if he knows it's just you and him in the room he won't be against putting his head on your shoulder when he needs some love.

When his grades improve you better make him takoyaki and suffocate him with hugs and compliments because he needs that to be a more open and better person.

Laito:

Laito is a hard one, because I see many s/o for him written as anti-sex who won't give into him, or those who give in whenever and I don't think either would fully work.

If you meet through a one night stand obviously you're never going to get in. I think his best chance would be a classmate he sits beside often, potentially a sacrificial bride but I'm kinda meh on that. He needs reliable no touch love before moving on to anything. So let's say he noticed you doing a crossword before class one day (it's canon he loves em) and he helps on a word or something. Now response here is everything, no swooning and "omg Laito-senpai sleep with me" crap but also don't ice queen it. Hearing "I don't want to sleep with you leave" will shut him out from you forever. I think something akin to "Oh thanks Laito, I didn't know you liked crosswords you seem pretty good at them." Now let's break this down as to why this works best in my opinion. First off you thanked him for something that had nothing to do with physical touch in anyway, second you complimented him but not on his body or skills with said body. Instead you showed appreciation for his brain. And finally the "I didn't know you liked crosswords" gives him an opening to start discussing interests other then sex.

Laito was sexually abused and I think as a result it'd need to be slow and steady with things. So holding his hand and not letting him touch the boob just yet shows you don't want sex you want him. Talking to him about things like fashion means he can do his perv on the girls for a bit before slowly toning down and starting to talk more on the outfits. He will definitely be sleeping with other people at this point, you're not dating at all. I think he'll slowly begin to appreciate the routine of having one person in his life he doesn't need to give his body to, and he may just open up about the abuse. I think being supportive and gently saying something like "well I'm not a professional so I'm not going to be much help, but if you decide to talk to a therapist I'll be there every step of the way for you." BE HIS CRUTCH.

I think he's the most likely to consider and maybe even go to therapy before dating you (I think eventually all the boys would be convinced to start going). I think it would be in therapy where he realises the fact he wants to be near you all the time isn't lust like with other girls but it's love. I imagine he'd be like "It's weird because I want to be with them all the time but fully clothed and eating macaroons or watching movies, not [the following is censored for a good reason]

I think Laito has the ability to be a great partner if he can deal with his abuse and PTSD from said abuse.

Kanato:

Kanato is a tricky case. He definitely has bipolar disorder or manic depression or some serious mental health condition past just PTSD or depression brought on by abuse. So I think he'll need medication and an actual therapist although getting him there is the hard part.

Firsts off toss the "Yeah I have a Teddy too and love sweets as well let's be 5 together" fantasy out the window, especially if the file up sentence to that is "I also like killing people, we're both crazy". Also you can't be a sacrificial bride, you'd be dead or he'd ignore your opinion.

I think maybe if you went to a therapist for a less severe issue (anxiety or something that doesn't make you STAB PEOPLE WITH FORKS) then maybe if he was following you or picking you up and had a meltdown the therapist would actually help him through it which will be like a "omg I don't have to scream to feel better" moment for him I think.

So from there he goes to therapy. He's still childish in his likes and stuff but he doesn't kill people or keep his weird ass dolls. You need to set some ground rules. "No I'm not going to make you cake unless my homework is finished and that's something I have to stick with. Remember your breathing, the longer you shout or be angry the longer you'll end up waiting for cake." Wear his pretty dresses and be nice to teddy and all that good stuff. But set limits. I see Kanato is pretty asexual, like I don't see him as the kinda guy to want sex, I don't think he's against romantic feelings for someone but I don't think he'd have sex with a s/o.

Hi! I was wondering if I could please bother you for a BNHA match-up. I am not too picky with any specifications as long as the students are aged up. I am a straight, 26 year old doctor doing my residency. I am chubby, 5’1” with blue eyes and wavy light brown hair. I love cooking, baking, reading, writing, working out, playing video games, yoga and watching anime. I love spicy foods and weird new combinations but I’m not the biggest fan of sweet foods.

I am a INFP Capricorn and tests seem to think I would be a good Gryffindor. I genuinely dislike people who are willfully ignorant or unwilling to experience new things. I am an introvert with a pessimistic line of thought but unless you know me very well I appear to be an extremely happy and outgoing person. I have a social battery meter that I have to follow closely or else I get overwhelmed and need to be either alone or around someone special to recharge

Hi, thanks so much for requesting. I’ve had to put A LOTT of thought into your match-up because I seriously didn’t know who to choose

in the end i decided to match you up with...

~KIRISHIMA EIJIROU~

Now.. I know that some people may not agree with me but lemme just quickly explain why

I seriously believe that Kiri could bring out the best in you ESPECIALLY as an aged-up Pro-Hero and vice versa

I’m more than 100% sure that he won’t even dare judge by appearances since its not manly at all, his best friend is Bakugou for Christ’s sake, so if your appearance, whether it be your height, features or body type, is something you’re insecure about this ManlyMan ® wouldn’t give up until you feel like the Goddess that he treats you like

I’m guessing that being a doctor means working long hours so you two might not see each other much but when you do he makes sure that you both are having the best time and being comfortable. He’s up for whatever your up for, be it a nap or an hour long hike

I don’t think that he is a master chef but he wont burn water either, so you two would DEFINITELY cook dinner together and bake cakes for yourselves like in the movies and all I’m so jelly

I also think he’d eat pretty much anything you would and he has a sweet tooth but won’t force you to go binge eating sweets with him

On days he’s more tired he’d love for you to read him your current book or something you were recently writing whilst cuddling together wherever

Just a quick note on cuddling- HE’S A HUGE CUDDLE BUG

When it comes to writing if you’re the type to write late at night when he’s come back from work (assuming you two live together by then) he’d put your health first and draaaag you either to bed or to take a warm bath with him.

If you ever feel comfortable showing him your work, asking for criticism he’d really focus and try get into the story for your sake so that he can be as honest as possible with you

As honest as he’d be he wouldn’t utter a bad word about your work, compliments only when he’s in charge!

He’s literally a Pro.. of course he’d be working out and would have so much fun doing it with you.

He does mostly, if not only, muscle and cardio work so if you do other types he’d definitely be open to trying!

Same goes for yoga, although i can’t imagine him having very good balance so he’d struggle at first but find himself so at peace watching you gracefully change positions and would find it absolutely adorable

Kirishima, without a doubt, has experience with anime and video games

Animes- he would probably be into ones that give off a yaoi vibe without him even realising it ,he’s just there for the drama and competition. He isn’t the type to watch things like Tokyo Ghoul though (he probably used to get nightmares tbh) but I’m sure you two could mutually agree on something to watch on days off

As for video games.. this man will turn to be so competitive, and the both of you will just try to sabotage each other all the time if you two play something like Mario Kart. If you’re more of a COD, Overwatch, R6S typa gal then He’d love for you to teach him and play with him every now and then but would rather watch you get you mad when you die, puff your cheeks when you get frustrated 

BUT HE WOULD FORCE YOU TO PLAY ACNH WITH HIM

You’d go to each other’s towns and it’d just be really cute and soft

This God of a man would never turn down trying new things, he’s all for it!!

Pleeaase introduce him to stuff he’s never seen before he honestly thinks you’re the most wonderful person ever he’d do anything for/with you

As an introvert tell him if you ever feel uncomfortable when you’re out or if you’d rather stay in than go out he is  p u t t y in your hands

He will try to take you out to new places and introduce you to new people because he is such a social butterfly, just tell him when you don’t want to be involved anymore and he’ll completely understand

When you reveal to him your more pessimistic thoughts he’d be kind of shocked but wouldn’t question you and would just try to let you see the more optimistic side of things!

You have to let him know about you getting overwhelmed because he would just make it worse by trying to press you to tell him what’s going on which I imagine wouldn’t lead to something pretty

Tell him and he’d completely understand! He’ll leave you be and you can go to him whenever you need and rant or whatever would relieve you from your stress

Further into your relationship hopefully he’ll become a special someone you can recharge with (it’d be his honour) and like always he’ll be following your every command

This is exactly like opposites attract and I personally think that you’d have a very wholesome relationship!

THANKS SO MUCH FOR REQUESTING AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR

MATCH-UP❤

Sunday funday

So yesterday I was pondering around ma crib thinking ‘hmmm, what should I do for my next blog post?’ and then ‘EUREKA’ (Anyone get that reference? I hope you did) the ‘Light bulb’ (Another reference...) switched on! ‘Let’s be annoying and ask ‘mi buenos amigos’ some questions’. Lemme just say it was HILARIOUS some of the replies I got, I was crying (LITERALLY). I learnt new things and I hope they make you smile and laugh as much as they did for me (I will only ever laugh if I truly find it funny - I’m easily entertained)... But in all seriousness take note on the more serious questions and answers, because they’ve actually given some decent replies - take it in! 

1) What is the funniest video you have ever watched?

Hannah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hElms3Jk1Ls - Thai cheese commercial (it’s weird but funny)

Amy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyGomklDbts - “Sorry that scared me” vine 

Abi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AloNtiGpAZ0 - Hi stranger (the weirdest, creepiest video ever but strangely funny at the same time)

Jack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJGCBNndLHc - We are number one but THIS IS SPARTA (the editing is pretty legit and the song is pretty funny)

Callum: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXB6GAR5dNE - Basketball fails

2) Favourite song/s at the moment?

Hannah: Come to the alter - Elevation worship (One of my favourites too) 

Amy: ‘Sign of the times - Harry Styles’, and ‘Hard times - Paramore’ (She also said just about any Katy Perry song :D)

Abi: Something just like this - Chainsmokers ft. Colplay

Jack: Big beat Mario - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O36f1p8QSaw&t=239s (it reminds me of geeky rave music :D)

Callum: Paramore - Hard times 

3) Have you ever cried with laughter - if so, why?

Hannah: (in her words - and I have been given permission to share this) ‘Heck yeah I have - when I put my bra over my head and pretended to be a fly.’ (Oh my goodness, I laughed my head off when I saw her reply :D)

Amy: ‘All the time, usually some really stupid puns or a fail somehow.’ 

Abi: ‘Yes when Ethan slid down the hill and all you could hear was Ethan going ‘ahh’ and ‘help’. (She’s such a great girlfriend :D)

Jack: ‘The only time I remember coming close was: My friend asked me for a specific book but got the name wrong. This made me chuckle so I turned around to get it, but when I turned back he had leaned in close to me with the most stupid and contorted look on his face. I couldn’t stop laughing for a whole minute!’ 

Callum: ‘I have. It was because of a humorous preach by Nathan J.’ 

4) Anything AMAZING ever happen to you in your years of living?

Hannah: ‘I met David Attenborough and he told me he was busy. We’re basically best friends’ (I can never tell if she’s being serious or not so I’m guessing it’s Hannah being humorous :D).

Amy: ‘Performing with Andre Rieu at a sold out LG concert’ (Ummm, say wut?!)

Abi: ‘My trip to the Philippines because it was a very surreal experience’

Jack: ‘One of the most amazing feelings in my life came from completing the whole of ‘Go Ape’ with my dad. We are both scared of heights so this was a big challenge for us, but at the end of the final course (the tallest) there was a zip line that travelled all the way back down to the ground. When I finally made it there I began to descend, but it turned in the air to face backwards. On the way down I was able to see all the obstacles I’d conquered, and it felt GOOD!’

Callum: ‘I have been blessed with amazing friends.’ 

5) Advice for anyone struggling?

Hannah: ‘Hold out because the best is yet to come.’

Amy: ‘The advice I’m trying to use for myself that I’d recommend would be to make yourself proud, like don’t worry about who else is or isn’t proud of you just be proud of yourself be happy for yourself obviously care for others and take their advice but mate be proud of what you’re achieving but don’t be a poo about it.’ 

Abi: ‘My advice would be if someone is struggling is to always try and stay positive whatever situation it is, personally I find that my faith helps me when I’m struggling!!’ 

Jack: ‘The biggest enemy you will have to face in your life (your biggest bully and critic) is yourself. When you make a mistake, don’t belittle yourself, but acknowledge what needs to change. It’s easier to shoot yourself down from your dreams than to backtrack after a ‘wrong turning’. It’s not your mistakes that define you but what you do about them. You are an incredible and unique individual, and you can’t accept anyone without first accepting who YOU are.’

Callum: ‘Trust in God with everything and cast your anxieties at His feet.’

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And then I thought ‘hmm, what about me?’ - so here’s my answers:

1) Funniest video ever watched - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzWqfJFxC0w (literally had me in stitches when I first watched it :D)

2) Favourite song/s at the moment - ‘Symphony by Clean Bandit and Zara Larsson’ and also ‘For once in my life by Stevie Wonder’ 

 3) One of them is this picture: 

But the main one would be New Years when me and all of my friends played hide and seek in the dark, and my fabulous friend Abi hid in the toilet when it was her turn. A few people found her and then hid with her as a joke. My ICT friend Jack thought she was in there (which she was but he didn’t know) and said ‘Abi, I know you’re in there...’ and then my potato friend Callum was one of them in there with her and goes ‘I’m having a pee mate’ (he was covering Abi) and Jack then goes ‘Oh, sorry...’ - You’d have to be there to understand how INCREDIBLY funny it was :’D... They were all laughing so hard in the toilets (apparently)...

4) Amazing thing that happened - When I came to realise what an absolute plonker I had been my whole life and became the confident person I was always supposed to be - thanks to my pal Jesus it was an impossible aspect that turned into a possible one. 

5) My advice - When you’re struggling take a look at yourself in the mirror and speak words of truth out, and then simply smile at yourself (it seems creepy and weird but it works miracles). Personally seeking help and advice is the best thing to do, there’s someone you can turn to when you struggle. Little secret from me to you who are reading; I smile into my mirror, literally EVERY night before I go to bed, I have never told anyone so you people are lucky to find out if you’re reading (the only reason behind this is that if I have had a hard day and I’m upset I can see the smile and it makes me feel better - stupid I know but it helps, try it)... I also would like to mention that taking a step back and staring at the negativity in the face can intimidate it - tell it to sit down and shut up, shine your light in its face and be yourself because then the negatives can’t catch up. If you need to, scream into a pillow (this also helps), cry a little (or a lot) and don’t ever underestimate your power. Darkness is just the absence of light - never forget that. 

I know this was a long one but I hope it was worth the read - I know I would love this :’D 

Bhai Felicia and have a magical, wonderful day - stay smiling and laugh, its the best piece of cliche medicine - it’s good for you! <3
