#Miri's HC

[mirensiart]

For the pain sharing AU: what is each boy's most "embarrassing" reoccurring pain? Be it physical or emotional

Ooough lemme think 🤔

Sky: I personally don't see him as being easily embarrassed lol but if I had to choose I bet he feels a lil self conscious over how much he aches thanks to missing zelda so much, like the chain teased him over his infatuation over her a lot pre-curse, but now that they can feel just how lovesick he is, I bet it makes him a lil bit uncomfy

Four: the migraines, I bet, like he gets them a lot, especially post-portal hopping

Time: I wanna project my awful terrible back pain to him, so yeah, back pain lol u know that one scene from the incredibles when bob is fighting that robot and his back starts acting up until it cracks back into place? Like I can see that happening to him a lot lol

Twilight: the midna heartache lmao

Wind: I like the headcanon that he struggles with blisters on his feet cause of not being used to walking, since back home he was raised in a small island and then sailed everywhere, he's embarrassed of the blisters and feet pain cause he doesn't want to be seen as weak and also cause he knows the other will fuss over him

Legend: his chronic/joint pain :( also the emotional pain being in wind's hyrule/lurelin village causes him (the sea)

Warriors: I headcanon him as being super nightmare pilled lol like this baby can fit so many nightmares (war related, traitors related, cia related, etc) pre-curse he played it cool since he's great at pretending he's OK (he's not lol) but with the curse everyone keeps waking up over his nightmare emotional pain and he's mortified the others know

Hyrule: ooooh if we go with the hyrule is part fairy headcanon then I bet he's very embarrassed over how much iron hurts him lol

Wild: probably the emotional pain his memory moments cause him since he doesn't have control over them and he doesn't like how the others look at him post a specifically painful one

More Clothing Practice ft. Kazurei ❤️💙

Happy Buddy Daddies Friday!

[sapphim]

obsessed with Shepard dying and being reconstructed by Cerberus. waking in a body you don't recognize, free of scars, a clean slate, unlived in. minor tweaks here and there, "upgrades" unasked for, cybernetic or bioengineered. 20/10 vision, too crisp and clear. a more efficient liver. old L3 biotic implant replaced with cutting-edge technology. forcibly assigned übermensch. have you been cloned, or merely Ship of Theseus'd? if they cloned you once, would they do it again? could you be activated as a sleeper agent? would you have any way of knowing? they say that paranoia is a sign of reaper Indoctrination. is it really paranoia if you have good cause?

Rei is significantly more relaxed over the years, but the saying "once a hitman, always a hitman" rings true for him.

And Kazuki.

There were instances where they got robbed, or there were attempts made anyway, where Rei's sole working arm was preoccupied, or he found himself in an otherwise vulnerable position.

And yet, no harm had ever come to him, and that was not because of Rei's doing at all.

It was Kazuki.

That man had stored more weapons in the crevices of the diner than Rei had back at their old place, which was an incredible feat to surpass. All weapons were well out of reach and knowledge of Miri (unbeknownst to them, Miri knows all the hiding places) and if Rei were ever in a position to be distracted or incapable of disarming an intruder, he could always count on Kazuki.

The first time happened when Rei was carrying a heavy box and carefully positioning it on his shoulder to heave it on a high shelf. He had heard the intruder, his senses still sharp as ever, but had no time to grab any of the weapons from the kitchen.

But Rei knew, he didn't need to.

The second the intruder whipped out what Rei assumed was a pistol, the same second a gut twisting scream tore from the man's throat and a loud thud followed it.

The would-be robber was sweating (and probably soiling) himself. Kazuki Kurusu stood with one arm filled with groceries and the other holding a loaded gun aimed at the guy's head, a menacing, almost sadistic smile twisting his usually kind features.

Rei smirked and finished heaving up the box on the shelf, very much unbothered by the sight before him. "Ah, did you forget to buy the lemons, again?"

Kazuki's sadistic killer smile vanished and he glanced at Rei with a twitch in his eye. "Did I forget- I'll have you know, Miri wrote down everything we needed! So no, I didn't forget to buy the lemons."

Rei rested his hand on his hip. "Outside?"

Kazuki nodded, gun never once leaving its position aimed at the intruder's head. "Yep, but she can barely wait for dinner so lets wrap this up qui-"

The intruder thought Kazuki was sufficiently distracted to attempt to tackle Rei and at least flee the scene, but as soon as he moved, Kazuki and Rei moved as well.

Rei swiped his feet out and tripped the guy, while Kazuki brutally slammed his foot on top of the guy's head. An audible thud rang through the air when the man's skull made contact with the floor, the cold steel of the gun pressed into his head. "Oi, it's rude to interrupt people while they're talking, dickhead."

Rei was already calling the police, silently lamenting the fact that they couldn't bury him in their backyard. Perhaps his plants would grow faster too that way.

Oh well.

"You didn't buy the lemons." Rei stared blankly at Kazuki while the police escorted the beat up robber outside.

Kazuki's eye twitched again. "MIRI!"

Miri huffed. "I swear I wrote it down, Kazu Papa!"

Buddy's are struggling to be daddies

[silversoulstardust]

If miri is like any other teenage girls she is probably into boybands and stuff and I just know she would force the lore of her favorite idols on her papas.

Idk what's funnier, kazuki going to fan events and concerts with his daughter holding on to the merch for her (I'm talking about headband with the idol's name and fan and shirt with a big face of the idol plastered on it) or rei being able to give a 20 minutes powerpoint presentation on the idols plus extra material on the rival group beefs and gossips surrounding those idols

[getosbf]

One detail I really love in this episode aside from the fact that we see Rei becoming more and more included in Miri's upbringing is that they are oh so obviously the heart/brain/soul trope.

Kazuki being the heart, keeping the house functional (i think we all know how Rei's house was before him heh) and making sure the others stay alive. Him being the moral and verbal support for the other two every time they need it also contributes to his being the figurative "heart" of the house. Then of course his bubbly personality and constant attempts to keep the other two happy even though he has enough to deal with of his own, as a heart keeps functioning for the body under all circumstances because he can only exist as long as the body (and here, figuratively, their family) stays alive.

Rei then works as the brain. Although sometimes he can be a dumbass (or maybe he really just wanted kazuki to bath him but you never know with this dumbass) but that what a brain does, doesn't it? The brain exists upon knowledge and instincts combined and is the most vital part of the body. As Rei is seen here providing Miri with the knowledge which can help her best (and god do i need to hug this man because no, he's not telling them to Miri because he's never dealt with kids, but because that's probably what he was taught when he was that age). The brain's instincts are usually followed to protect the body (as i said, their family) and in the last episode we clearly saw that Rei was putting aside all his years of training (at least for a while) to listen to his instincts, because he had something to protect. And what I mentioned about him being the most vital part of the family, since because of him, shigeki wants to eliminate the other two from his life. So figuratively, if not for him, the other two, the body, would die.

Then comes Miri as the soul. In the first episode, we see that the house is clean, but not well lit. There is a sense of darkness but when Miri comes, all the lights are on and thew house is bright as an eyesore. As if the house without Miri being a representation of a body without a soul (see: Rei before and after Kazuki). Before her the house was functionable, but we see Rei and Kazuki working as mere colleagues, even arguing in the first episode but after she came, she strengthened their bonds and gave them a somewhat "enjoyable" environment. Like Kazuki coming into Rei's life to keep him emotionally alive, which was functionable, but because of Miri, they can now be described as happy and the house is finally tied together with the heart, brain and soul. Completing their family, the body.

I will never, never in my life shut up about this trio because oh my gods just look at them, i want to put them in a blender and drink them so they can be i just have so many feels alaksdhsvagskd

[doodle-dog-draws]

Anya, Towa and Miri! The three gremlins that live in my head rent free forever (੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭♡*:･.★

[kazureicentral]

I am a firm believer in the

“Rei thinks of Kazuki during every sappy love song he hears.” Headcanon

THIS INCLUDES ALL THOSE DISNEY ONES!!

[dizzybizz]

when the brainrot hits you like a truck

here are some cooking and cooking related headcanons!!

• kazuki is a very good teacher, hes generally very patient and attentive, he tends to bicker with rei a lot, he struggles to formulate himself concisely sometimes but hes doing great

• miri joins in anytime they cook, they let her wash the vegetables or mix ingredients together, which she obviously has little songs for

• rei is trying his darndest damn it!!

• he finds it really hard asking about stuff and especially for help but hes trying and i love him 😢😢😢

• rei sucks at cracking eggs, miri laughs endlessly, kazuki is dying in the background,,, he keeps explaining how to do it correctly but it never seems to get through to rei

• its not even funny at this point, either the egg is smashed before hes even tapped it to the counter or he ends up using too much force when tapping it against the counter or he successfully cracks the egg but shell ends up going in alongside it-

• he is also stupidly fixated on being able to crack eggs single-handedly (he says its bc its efficient and its always good to have a hand free, which is true, but really he just thinks its badass) and its the bane of kazukis existence, he comes home one day to find both rei and miri (bc miri would also think thats the coolest thing ever and want in) in the kitchen with an almost empty egg carton and egg and shell covered counters, they make eye contact and kazuki immediately turns around and leaves to buy more eggs without so much as a word

• kazuki abandons using omelets as an easy entry-level dish after that

• rei is bad at seasoning savory dishes, hes bad at eyeballing the appropriate amount, kazuki does his best at helping or getting him to use measurements but rei is stubborn, he obviously doesnt want more to have more dishes that absolutely necessary so he needs to work on his eyeballing skill

• during early sessions kazuki would always supervise closely and sorta just constantly stare like a hawk over reis shoulder, he learned quickly not to do that again 💀💀💀

• rei doesnt really grow to like vegetables but kazuki learns ways to work around that by discretely incorporating them in dishes

• rei does like cucumber tho, subtle and very crunchy, put some salt on that sucker and youve got an easy snack (that he shares with miri), you dont even have chop it in order to enjoy it which is appreciated

• kazuki throws a bunch of cookbooks at rei and urges him to look through them and see if anyhting piques his interest, rei flips through them before going to sleep which can bite him in the ass when he has to go to sleep hungry as fuck 💀💀

• hes woken up multiple times with a cookbook in the tub with him

• rei enjoys baking a lot, his and miris sweet tooths never go unsatisfied

• he doesnt bake frequently per se, but he does so in bulk, and freezes cookie dough and such

• kazuki, early on, suggested cooking games in order to maybe get rei a bit familiarized with terms and techniques but he grew to regret it, a gaming night where everyone is gathered in the living room and kazuki loses his mind at the logic in the games, he doesnt stop commentating

• they end up getting into cooperate cooking games like overcooked, plates up and one-armed cook tho and its all good, if they play with miri in the vicinity they have to bite their tongues in order to not swear

• rei struggles grasping his mind around meat, theres so many kinds and cuts and doneness levels and ways of preparation and spice blends- its all a lot

• rei and miri each get their own aprons to match with kazukis 🥺🥺🥺

• miri gets a little yellow one with a monkey or like a sky blue or pink one with a white rabbit, fuck it why not both

• rei has an orange one with a black cat

• or if we wanna stick to an ocean theme, miri would have a goldfish or jellyfish and rei would have an octopus

• rei is a bit of a mess in the kitchen but we love him anyway, i just feel like hed be the type to go "ill clean it all at the end"

• he unceremoniously throws dirtied utensils and pots in the sink to be delt with later

• doesnt even use waiting times to clean or clear his space a little, kazuki is horrified

• rei finds doing the dishes a bit tedious at times but he enjoys the process and seeing the fruits of his labor in the form of sparkling clean dishes

• the repetitive motions are very soothing

• he doesnt like getting wet tho and wears gloves

• rei listens to music when cooking- maybe some instrumental tracks, nothing too distracting

• miri observes whenever either of them are cooking, she stands on a little stool in order to see the counters properly, she is really curious and inquisitive

• early on in reis cooking journey she would give him pointers and reminders she remembered kazuki telling them

• rei isnt an adventurous eater or cook, he prefers things that are simple and quick to prepare

• wait times for rei are long and arduous so he sneaks off to play some video games in the living room, the first few times he did this were disastrous and hes learnt to turn down the volume by a bit and reminding himself that he is in fact in the middle of cooking something

• the family makes lots of homemade popsicles during summer

• when kazuki and rei first try cooking together they mess up a lot but eventually they get a system going where each of them has their own tasks. they make a good team in the kitchen for the most part

• cooking very much becomes a family activity for them after a while

Adding twilight to my very exclusive list of "men I would marry despite me being a lesbian"

[dk-wren]

A thought or idea I've had swirling in my head for some time now is if Buddy Daddies were to get a second season or OVA, "Don't Say Good Bye" is reintroduced/reorchestrated more as a lullaby. (While I don't think this will happen in the final CD drama, my understanding of the synopsis makes me feel like this is something that Rei and Kazuki might plausibly do in the future/after they talk with Miri about Misaki's passing.)

Perhaps the last verse is taken out or Kazuki and Rei come up with some new words, but by singing this song to Miri, it would kinda be like their promise to never leave her and serve as a way to keep Misaki present in Miri's life.

When Kazuki first heard Misaki sing "Don't Say Good Bye" in ep. 3, he instantly recognized it from Miri singing it at home. So, in hearing Miri sing it many times (or teaching the song to her papas), they could then start singing it to her.

Or, if Miri only knows the main melody, perhaps Kazuki could scour the Internet for some recording of the song. Because I have the feeling in this scenario, once Miri starts to hear the lyrics, she may not fully understand the meaning, but she will instantly recognize it as Misaki's song.

Maybe this is just my interpretation, but I felt that Rei and Kazuki were both deeply effected by Misaki's death, especially since by that point of the story, they were both willing to do anything to protect Miri and her happiness. And at the end of the series, Miri still shows a love for her mother, both during the main storyline when she asks if Misaki is coming to the Christmas Party (and looking sad when neither papa could give her a firm "yes") and during the epilogue when she tells the photo of the two of them she is heading out. So again, by bringing back "Don't Say Good Bye" in this context, Misaki stays present in their lives and another layer is added to its meaning.

[saltscars]

Also, naturally Pony has many regrets, but one she'll readily admit to is not learning how to cook like her Auntie. Little Pony was too busy learning how to fight and ride from her Uncle, or reading star maps and history books to learn cooking. Her Auntie kept trying, even gifting her recipes when she left home.

[lady-charinette]

This is like my third version of this plot but bear with me bc I go feral for domestic but deadly Kazurei

Post 10 year timeskip

Rei and Kazuki are cleaning up the kitchen, Kazuki is carrying boxes to the storage room so they store the food safely for tomorrow. Rei is left alone in the kitchen wiping the counters clean.

Someone comes in despite the closed sign being turned up and Rei glances at them and immediately tenses.

He could recognize that look anywhere.

A look that spelled trouble and screamed weapon.

Rei scanned the man from head to toe, eyes zeroing in on what appeared to be a concealed knife from within the man's jacket pocket. "Hey, uh, you guy's still open?"

"No, the closed sign is displayed on the front door, I'm afraid you'll have to leave." Rei didn't miss the way the stranger kept glancing at his limp arm by his side, as if gauging how much of a threat Rei posed since being crippled.

Oh, how dangerous it was to underestimate your opponent.

The man approached the counter and slid his hand along the polished wood. "Sir, I said we were closed."

Rei rolled his eyes when the stranger made a sharp turn to enter into the kitchen area, obviously to gain momentum to draw his knife and stab him.

Good thing Rei couldn't get rid of his blood that easily.

As soon as he caught the glint of metal, Rei sprung into action.

Using his limp arm as a feint, faking the movement of reaching for something, Rei distracted the man long enough to grab his wrist holding the knife and twisting the limb sharply.

The man cried out in pain, bones grinding against each-other viciously. "I said, we were closed."

The man ignored Rei and tried to punch him with his free hand, but Rei acted quickly. He kicked the man's chin, twisting his arm further, causing him to drop the knife. Right into Rei's hand.

Twirling the knife in his hand to hold it in a reverse grip, Rei aimed for the spot between his eyebrows.

When the stranger opened his eyes again, he was met with the sharp edge of his blade inches away from his face. "You have 5 seconds to decide whether you want your liver carved out by your own knife or you run away and never set foot in here again."

The stranger didn't even use the full five seconds before he was out the door, his cries echoing through the half empty streets.

Kazuki returned from the backroom, scratching his head. "Did that guy want a refund?" He rose an eyebrow at the knife in Rei's hand. "Hey man, I told you not to threaten our customers for looking at the family pictures."

Rei tossed the knife into the drawer and closed it, gazing blankly at Kazuki. "....You're one to talk. Didn't you threaten to disembowel a kid and use his innards as ingredients for our next menu item?"

Kazuki clenched his fist at the memory. "I threatened a man looking at pictures of our Miri lewdly! You were itching to get your hand on him, too!" He pouted, sneering at Rei.

Rei grinned. "The kid was 16, I draw the line at beating up kids."

Kazuki cackled maniacally. "HA! Weakling! Good thing you have me! I'll throw hands with a toddler if he made kissy faces at yo- I mean Miri!"

Rei rose an eyebrow at the verbal slip, watching his partner's face heat up.

"Hm...sure you would."
