#dont touch my afro

“Don’t touch my hair, when it’s the feelings I wear. Don’t touch my soul, when it’s the rhythm I know.” - Solange Knowles

[supahstarrr]

as a dr fan we need to acknowledge that some of the danganronpa characters suffer through chronic liners for bad humor by out-of-touch old guy writers syndrome

[cuteidiot]

sometimes ppl touch my hair. like pet me. like im a goat ? or perhaps a little kitty ? i understand the confusion but i am in fact just a very cute girl ��

[danceyreagan]

Its so hard being a black women who likes fanfiction. Like there is just still so little representation. Even when things are “reader” they are coded for white people.

No one is running their fingers through my silky hair. Or brushing hair out of my eyes behind my ear. I have an afro and when I dont its in twists. Also, black women dont really let people touch or play in their hair.

I dont have pink nipples.

I dont blush. My skin will not turn red no matter how hard Im blushing.

Now I thought it was hard in the Peaky Fandom. But there are some amazing black fic writers here and likely more have emerged since I havent been active in the fandom for a few years.

Trying to read Kpop fan fiction, its even harder to find representation.

If you are in any of the fandoms below, please comment or reblog with your fave black fanfic writers.

[metamorphiacreations]

i want to talk about Jjajang Cookie and cultural disconnection

bc its not the focus of the story but its important for her as a character

hi welcome back to Meta rambling at 3am again akandn

The dish of jjajangmyeon or black bean sauce noodles (which sounds so fucking good, i really wanna try some) was brought to Korea in the late 19th century by way of Chinese migrant workers and stems from the Chinese dish, zhajiangmian or fried bean sauce noodles

i saw a post from @/walnutcookie where he mentioned that unlike most other cookies, Agent Jjajang doesnt know how to make her own dish, Cream Puff Cookie knows how to make cream puffs, Latte Cookie knows how to make lattes, even Tanghulu Cookie's whole thing is going back and forth between hot and cold baths because thats what you do to the fruit to make tanghulu, but Jjajang has never made jjajangmyeon until she starts running the noodle shop and even then she doesnt get the hang of it until Olive (who ill call Oli for this post) shows her how to make noodles.

this could be interpreted as Jjajang representing children or descendants of immigrants that have one way or another, lost touch with their culture. the chances of it meaning to be that deep are honestly 50/50 because on one hand the story is a hardass of a government agent does average life work to track down aliens but at the same time the story so far has constantly brought up going back to your roots and homestyle nostalgia. in fact the reason the restaurant blows up in the first place is because Jjajang learned how to play to the aliens' favor by making the noodles taste like home to them.

the franchise doesnt need to say it out loud because its so obvious but a cookie's main ingredient is integral to their living and for a lot of cookies, that ingredient is like 98% of their diet. so the fact that Jjajang up until this point had been eating instant noodles rather than proper jjajangmyeon probably wasnt good for her.

we can see that slowly but surely she starts becoming more happy and comfortable making noodles and even catches herself taking pride in her work, although she tries to bring herself back to reality afterwards. she is a secret agent, not a noodle chef! but i wonder if she realizes that she's finally able to find some connection to her ancestors. given the dishes history, it would make Jjajang canonically Chinese Korean but she talks like she never had the chance to partake in her Chinese heritage.

i myself am afro-dominican. 2nd gen american born or however you say it. my great-grandmother, grandmother and great aunts moved from DR to New York and without getting too personal, i dont feel confident in my knowledge about Dominican culture. i dont know about the history of my country, i dont know about our clothing styles or anything specific but i do know about our food! we eat it all the time! i love sancocho, i love mangú, i love platanos in general. food just makes me feel connected to DR even though ive never been (yet!)

call it projecting or whatever but i feel like Jjajang is the same way, shes happy making noodles because it brought her closer to her family roots and even if that wasnt the intention with her character, i still think its a great aspect and wonderful, quiet plotline.

I Am Not My Hair

What actually happens if I shave my head bald?

Why cant I see what I look like without hair?

Why do I have to be sick or have cancer or be dying?

Why am I not allowed as a woman to just shave my head?

Why do I need a reason, a justification, an explanation?

Why do I have to justify being hairless?

Why are people acting like Im dying and have cancer just because Im bald?

Nothing happens. Thats the gag.

Youve been taught to fear.

Its just my bald head. Why is that forbidden?

Verboten?

Why cant I ever see what my actual head looks like without all this hair on it?

Why cant I see what my face looks like without it constantly being surrounded by hair?

What if I like being bald?

What if I like not spending $1200+ a year on my hair?

What if I like not styling my hair?

What if I like not doing anything with my hair other than cutting it super short, about an inch or two, every few months?

Why does it threaten people for a woman not to care about her hair?

I dont want to go to a hair salon or barbershop.

I dont want to go back to an afro.

I dont want locs or dreads.

I dont want shaved sides, I already did that last year.

I dont want corn rows or bantu knots, Ive done that too.

I dont want to grow it out.

I dont want a $500 lace front wig.

I dont want a wig professionally installed by a stylist every 2 to 3 months.

I dont want to wash or brush my hair.

I dont want to put any products in my hair.

Why is it a sin for a black woman to not want to grow her hair out?

I dont want my "long beautiful" hair back.

I dont want it halfway down my back again.

I dont want it to my waist again.

I dont want to relax it again -- there are lawsuits against Loreal, black women who used Just For Me and other chemical relaxers to straighten their hair are being diagnosed with cancer, inferitility and fibroids.

The chemicals in a relaxer are strong enough to break down and destroy the natural texture of your curly coiled kinks and force it to be straight -- those same chemicals are also strong enough to literally peel paint off of cars -- why are you putting this directly on your scalp for an hour plus every 2 to 3 months from the time you are a pre-teen or in high school until adulthood, for decades, and thinking that there wont be health issues?

They target products to Black women that kill them.

Remember the little Black girls that sang the R&B pop jingle in the Just For Me commercial?

"Just for me...hair so healthy, silky and free."

Who was that song for?

This was the 90s and there were multiple Black girl groups back then -- TLC, 702, Blaque, Xscape, Jade, Total, MoKenStef, etc. -- they wanted to get us while we were young so we would keep using their products until adulthood. 

I got my first perm, I am 4C, at 11. I was so glad my mother stopped burning me with the hot comb that she had tortured me with since I was 5. Anything was better than that as I had a very sensitive scalp or "tenderheaded" as it is called in our community.

I couldnt wait to go to Touch of Magic salon where my older sister already had her long, silky hair. I was tired of being tortured by a hot ass comb that was constantlu burning my fucking scalp and I was tired of being told to "sit still" while my scalp was being fucking burned. I couldnt wait for the Revlon Fabulaxer so the dreaded golden hot comb could be forever banished from my existence.

From 11 to 34, 23 years, I faithfully got  a relaxer at the salon every 2 to 3 months. It was about $120+ (relaxer, deep condition, style, split ends, color, etc.). Over the years, that fucking adds up, over $100k I spent on my hair. Even when I went natural at 34, my 4c hair is extremely thick, kinky, nappy, unruly and very difficult to deal with. People have literally broken combs trying to comb through it. Needless to say, I couldnt manage anything myself but a wash and go so I spent thousands at the salon as a 4c natural on Senegalese twists, box braids, Bantu knots, corn rows, twist outs, twist updos and flat twists. 

Then I shaved my sides and cut my hair super short and started going to barber shops but I was dyeing it fuschia back then so my hair was still costing me money.

Then last year, I finally just grabbed kitchen scissors out of my kitchen and hacked it myself and decided I was never going to go back to a salon or barbershop.

I was going to cut my hair with kitchen scissors myself every 2 to 3 months. I do like different looks so I have five cheap synthetic shitty wigs that are different colors (blue, blonde, green, black). Depending on the lewk and fit, either I just wear my hair natural and short or I slap a wig on.

But thats it. No maintenance, no upkedp, no hair care routines, no wasting away a Saturday at a salon, no barbershops, no wash and gos, no 15 hour sessions getting braided extensions. 

Just literally cutting it with kitchen scissors every 2 to 3 months and slapping on a cheap shitty wig whenever I have a certain fit or lewk and thats it.

Then in August, I decided to shave my head bald. I didnt want even a few inches of hair anymore so I grabbed my husbands razor and shaved it. Didnt go to a barbershop or stylist. Had no idea how to even use the razor and just shaved it all off in under 10 minutes. I loved the bald look especially with thick ass winged liquid eyeliner, bold dramatic eyeshadow and colorful lipstick.

I have a few inches of growth that in a month or two, I will grab the kitchen scissors again and cut my hair down to an inch or two. Ill do that every few months. I love it bald but even shaving my head on a regular basis is more time than I choose to devote to my hair. Cutting it with scissors to an inch or two every 2 to 3 months is my absolute limit.

As a woman, thats not allowed.

Especially as a Black woman.

And I was raised by a Southern Baptist fundamentalist, so forget about it.

You have to obsess over your hair, products, styling, color, length, look, appearance, texture, curl pattern, thickness, volume, care routines, pre poo, deep conditoning, tea tree oil, diffusing, texturizing, blow out, straightening, relaxing, lace front wig installations, weaves, kanekalon, bundles, braids, twists, locs, dreads, corn rows, bantu knots...

You cant just not do your hair!

Only you can. Because thats exactly what I do.

Even as a Black woman and we are brainwashed to be absolutely obsessed with our hair.

Go back and look at the hysteria India Arie caused when she shaved her "beautiful curls".

Just like India Arie, I am not my hair.

Boo tang 🐻: “STFU 💀.”

(Small argument over what its called, me personally i agree with miles.)

You: “You betta hurry yo fine self over here before I lock you out.”

Boo tang: “Alr mami be right there 💕”

You sit up from the couch and head to the kitchen. Searching your phone for the ingredients of Cinnamon buns. (Or cinnabuns), You read the ingredients, nodding your head as you read them.

• Milk

• Sugar

• Unsalted butter (Melted)

• Baking soda

• Vanilla Extract

• Ground Cinnamon

• Cream cheese (For the filling)

“Check- Wait what? Cream cheese??” You start scrambling throughout the fridge,

“BRO WHERE-“ A knock interrupted your plea for cream cheese, You move from the kitchen to the Door, you open it to see Miles pretty glowing eyes, and bright smile. He leans in and gives you a quick kiss before stepping in with his hand on your waist.

“Hey ma,”

“Heyy- Oh I forgot to tell you… I don’t got no cream cheese.”

“Ma, I was right by the bodega.”

“Ik Ik bae, I just found out. But it’s okay ima set the ingredients out and we can leave?” You say as you throw your jacket on. Miles nods as you grab your keys. You both head out to the bodega and enter. You head to the aisle where the cream cheese is until you notice Miles at the Coffee machine playing around with it, You grab the cream cheese and walk up to him.

“Miles, Stop touching shi, acting like this at yo grown age.”

You gives him a quick kiss before dragging him to the cashier, He pays and you both head back to your house. Here comes the hard part. Cooking. “Alright Miles.” You say as you roll your sleeves up.

“So what we do Ma?”

“Huh? I thought you had the instructions?”

“No ma, I thought you did.”

“Morales go get your phone!”

He listens and searches up the instructions.

“Okay so, Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, sugar, and melted butter. The mixture should be just warm.”

“Bby!! Can you get the Milk?”

“Alr,” He grabs the milk and places it on the counter stupidly.

“Miles. I asked you to get the milk..to pour it.”

“OH!” He grabs the milk and completely misses the bowl im your hands. “Mierda!” (Fuck)

”Miles, NO PUEDO YA NO PUEDO.” (Miles, I can’t I just can’t anymore 💀) You start dying and then, you place the bowl down and Miles starts cleaning your hands and the marble countertop. “Alright take two. This time I’M DOING IT MILES!”

“Alr Ma, Watch you gonna see how hard it i-“

He stops watching you pour the milk out effortlessly. “HOW-?” You give him the most shit eating smirk ever. After that the cinnamon buns are in the oven and you guys sit down and start playfighting, Until Miles sniffs the burnt air.

Sniff - Sniff • “Yo, Mami Hueles eso?“ (Yo, Mami do you smell that?)

“Oh shit.”

You and Miles run into the kitchen panting, And open the oven. You clap your hands as Miles takes the cinnamon buns out.

“YESS! THEY AINT BURNT THANK THE LORD!!” You yell

“FINALLY WE DONT BURN THE HOUSE DOWN!” Miles said. You both sit down and taste it. In 3…2…1! As you both pop the delicious treat in your mouths. You both smirk at eachother giving “Hmms.” And small moans and sighs in approval. “We should work for gordon.” Miles says with a mouth full.

“Miles! No habla con comida en la boca.” (Miles, don’t talk with food in yo mouth.)

“These Cinna-Buns is hittin dif.”

“Miles, for the last time. Its Cinnamon Buns/Rolls.”

Javier peña x Black!reader.

cw: Smutty shit and shit smut, little plot, Javi being Javi, (unprotected) p in v, oral f MINORS DNII!!!!!!!!!! The reader is a Afro Latina and the rest is history 🌸

You and your bestie, Kayla, went to a bar that you had been to multiple times just to blow off steam….with sex. Tonight you were ready to fish some asshole out of the crowd and hopefully he’s decent in bed.

After settling in with a few drinks Kayla pointed out a guy staring at you as you scan him for any sign of marriage you hear Kayla snickering, “You are NOT falling for señior woofers over there I rebuke it.” You scoff “your boy toy is bite sized I’d rebuke him if I were you ” She just rolled her eyes and finished her drink “If your feeling him that much go talk to him.”

You stay quiet for a few seconds “Nah im gonna see if he feeling me first.” She groans mumbling something under her breath. “Okay babe I’ll see you tomorrow and if not I’m calling the police.” Kayla walks off to find her boyfriend you presume.

Kay leaves the guy comes over almost immediately reaching in his pocket to pull out his badge “Javier peña you’re under arrest for being so addictive.” You smile “Way too corny,” You snicker watching him sit next to you as you share your name.

“I’m complex you gotta work for me honey.”He his pinches his eyebrows together in amusement. “Ay, mi amor your killing me.” Teased resting his hands on your hips. “What you signed up for when you came over here baby” You reply swiftly.

______

Javier had taken you back to his house after you sent Kayla your location "just in case". You set your bag down letting him do what he needed before settling with him.

You were both sitting on his plush sofa, the dim light of the fireplace casting flickering shadows on your entwined hands. With a teasing grin, Javier leaned in close, his warm breath tickling your ear as he whispered, "I've been wanting to do this all night."

You shivered, feeling the tingle of anticipation racing down your spine. Javier's hand slid up your thigh, his fingers grazing the hem of your skirt. You bit your bottom lip, as his hand continued its journey, his touch sending shivers through your body. His fingers danced along your inner thigh, brushing against the fabric of your lace panties.

You couldn't help the moan that escaped your lips when Javier's thumb brushed against your swollen clit. He leaned in, capturing your mouth in a searing kiss. You parted your lips, allowing his tongue to explore the sweet recesses of your mouth.

Javier's hand lifted your skirt, exposing your wetness to the cool air. He pulled your panties to the side, slipping a finger into your slick warmth. You gasped, clutching at the fabric of his shirt, your body arching into his touch.

"You're so wet for me," Javier whispered huskily against your neck, his voice arousing you further. He removed your panties, discarding them on the floor. He positioned you so that you straddled his lap, your core pressed against his throbbing erection.

As you ground against him, Javier unbuttoned his trousers, freeing his hardness. He guided you down onto him, filling you completely. You both moaned, a mixture of pleasure and lust.

Javier's hands gripped your hips, guiding your movements as you began to ride him. The friction between your bodies built a crescendo of desire that threatened to consume you both.

You leaned in, your breasts brushing against his chest, as you whispered, "Don't stop." Javier's fingers dug into your flesh, driving you both toward the edge.

_____

The room was filled with the sound of your passionate cries, your bodies moving in perfect unison. Javier's lips found your nipple, his teeth gently grazing the sensitive bud. You threw your head back, the pleasure overwhelming you.

You could feel the climax building within you, the tension coiling tighter and tighter. "Javier," you gasped, clinging to him. Your orgasm hit like a tidal wave, your body quivering on the precipice of release.

Feeling your body tighten around him, Javier couldn't hold back any longer. His hips bucked upward, driving himself deeper into you. He groaned your name, his release flooding your core.

The two of you collapsed together, your breaths heavy and labored as you came down from the high of your ecstasy. Javier's arms wrapped around you, holding you close as you both basked in the afterglow.

"That was…" you panted, searching for the right words.

Javier pressed a tender kiss to your forehead, a satisfied smile on his lips. "Unforgettable," he finished for you.

As the heat of the night faded, leaving you both spent and sated, you could only agree with Javier's assessment. The night you both gave in, became a memory etched in your minds, a testament to the passion that burned between you.

Sorry this was out so late I was in the mental hospital then the regular hospital. My life is amazing 😋 👍

[bravrdm]

poly!bats boys x plus sized black reader headcanons?

Omg I completely ignored the poly part my bad I’ll do another one but for now here’s this

THIS HAS NOT BEEN EDITED AT ALL SO IF ITS BAD DONT JUDGE

Azriel

He worships you body in the bedroom

He knows how it feels to be insecure (via his hands)

So he always make sure to remind you your beautiful.

Fucks you when ever you get a new hairstyle

If you ever worked for the night Court you would be a perfect spy bc ur change ur wigs all the time.

When you wore your Afro out one day in the city the kids came rushing out to greet you and they put a whole bunch of flowers in ur hair

He he didn’t think it was possible to fall even more in love with you in that moment but he did. He loved seeing you with kids

Punched a dude in the face for making fun of ur weight.

He thinks ur hair is really cute

Would try to use ur hair and ur ass as a pillow.

Always touching ur belly and kissing ur arms/shoulders.

{dam bitch why I’m blushing}

Goes feral when u wear skin tight dresses and that one color that looks good on ur skin tone.

Kisses you stomach when he’s going down on u.

When u fall asleep he’ll put on ur bonnet for u and kiss ur forehead.

You’ll be at the dinner table with everyone and he’ll be kissing ur wrist and kissing up ur arm like chill bruh it’s not that serious

He’ll learn how to do ur twist outs and will make sure u never run out of hair grease.

Don’t make jokes about ur weight or skin color in front of him. He will fuck you in front of the mirror/ window just to show u and everyone else just how pretty you look when your cumming on his dick.

Ur sitting in his lap ALL of the time

Seriously

When even u joined the high lord meetings with az rhysand wouldn’t even give u a chair bc he knew Azriel would just pull u into his lap and you would both just sit there

U thought he was lying when he said he would fuck you in front of everyone if you kept making jokes about yourself?

The next meeting he had he had you facing everyone while fucking the shit out of you while his shadows covered the both of you so no one would see.

Sadly the shadows couldn’t hide your moans so u had to keep quiet.

Rhysand chewed him out for it but he also told az he would of done the same thing (they both nasty like that ew)

Cassian

He’s a big man so of course he likes everything big.

No offense to nesta but I don’t think it’s really realistic for cassian to be with a skinny girl 😔

Big beefy men usually go for big girls idk why ask your baldheaded mother.

He would only wanna see u in skintight dresses. (Or naked but that’s another story.)

He would HAVE TO learn how to do ur hair

Territorial asf

One time u had a male hair braider and he almost went crazy

You smacked him and kicked him out

After that he made sure to learn how natural hair works bc there was no way he was gonna let anyone else touch you.

It was kinda romantic teaching him and watching him learn about your hair.

He’ll do ur cornrows and then fuck u.

I feel like he would be more intimate when it comes to doing ur hair.

Like he would light candles and wash ur body in the bathtub and then wash ur hair.

After he’s done he would lay u on the bed and oil and lotion ur whole body down. And put u in one of his shirts

He would have u sit in his chair at his desk, section your hair and twist it up

You’d be so relaxed at that point and turned on.

9/10 im slow fucking him after that ngl.

Nice sleepy cuddle-fucking? Yes sir yes sir.

Rhysand

He tried to learn how to do ur hair but he was so busy and was always tired after his long work days.

But there was no way in hell he was having his high lady looking like shit

So he made a plan and got together the best stylists and braiders in the game for his wife ❤️🤞🏾

He would definitely have u living that pampered wife lifestyle

Im not really into the soft life shit but he would definitely have u living the soft life

Always buying expensive hair jewelry and headbands.

He got u a wet brush with a fat diamond in the center.

All ur hair products would match bc he likes organization.

Would probably have a whole separate room dedicated to ur hair and jewelry.

I’m kinda mad at rhysand rn so no more for him.

[tesla-runner]

Another hc for The Chameleon bc I just cant stop loving her.

She has a brother, called Mamihasina (From the Malagasy mamy meaning "sweet" or "well-liked" and hasina meaning "sacred power, sanctity, virtue") (he chosed a chinese name, 荣 (róng) meaning "glory, honour, flourish, prosper") who is an artist in both drawing and ceramic. She lost contact with him when she moved to Juniper City but she doesnt miss him bc of how her family seemed to support him more in his drawings that her in her sorcery and she hates him for that.

Róng, on the other hand, has tried to get back in touch with her, but has given up hope of being able to build a relationship with her when she became ruler of Juniper City

yeah, in my headcanons Chammy is afro-chinese, nope, I dont care if you think im woke

[natikoko]

WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH IAN- HE’S SO UNBELIEVABLY SILLY HSHSH /vpos do you have any fun facts to share with the press about this really goofy goober? ₊˚⋆✩٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و

THABK YOU FOR ASKING WBOUT IAN HES MY GUMMY LITTLE GUY

he’s 18, his smallfry is named Shrump (his brother!!), and he really only joined the NSS because cuttlefish offered him food after every mission (how can you say no to free food?) and he got roped into this crazy damn family. he loves them though

he loves rap and secretly writes verses in his free time, and speaks in a typically AAVE style. his whole style is based around the early 2000s hip hop scene, influenced by the modern underground rap movement. (because I imagine splatsville’s general style being very black inspired) wears baggy comfortable clothes and detests dressing up. takes the utmost care of his afro

hes a nice kid! very good— monotone and dry, but it’s just how he is. people mistake his dryness and his general resting bitch face as annoyance or something similar but it’s really, really not!! he’s quiet, but not meek. he’s actually really confident, just doesn’t appear that way. he’s got a sibling rivalry going on with tilly. I think he just likes bothering her because she gets really upset easily (“Ian… DONT TOUCH MY SQUID SISTERS WACKO POPS THEYRE THE EXCLUSIVE LIMITED EDITION GOLDEN ONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”)

he’s interested in social behaviors… like how Inkoplis teens interact with splatsville residents and the dynamic and differences between the different regions. it’s extremely interesting to him!!!

he’s very good at cooking!! he isn’t professionally trained but he makes a lot of spicy chicken fry’s and tonkatsu (his favorite food!!). likes expanding his taste but cannot stand crunchy and mushy shit together…. he hates peach cobbler…!

he’s also good at riding bikes…. hits wheelies all the time and does that really dangerous think where you ride your bike down a flight of stairs and dodge traffic… will scold people if they do that (it’s okay when he does..!). I also think he just likes staying home. hes comfortable home. he can play games and sleep. he usually goes outside for shopping, alterna, or joining in on some random rap group spittin’ on the streets

he sleeps like a cat. like all curled up n shit. has really good balance for some odd reason

ian isn’t interested in dating at the moment. he’s in a qpr with Shelbie..!

[richardsikens-secretlovechild]

here’s a poorly constructed headcanon/rant because my brain is very full rn

yk how there are various poc headcanons for james? like indian, hispanic, filipino, etc. (which i love by the way dont get me wrong!! i love how various groups can share their experiences through him it genuinely brings me joy)

what if i just.. make him jamaican in one of or several of my fics?? what happens then?? who’s to stop me?? like imagine indo-jamaican effie and afro-jamaican monty moving to england during the mass migratory period, settling into the wizarding community there then having james??

and james grows accustomed to wizarding society and england in general but his parents also make sure he still understands his roots

and i can imagine them speaking to him in patois at home and him teaching the boys bits and pieces of the dialect

and because i also head canon that mary is of jamaican decent as well (more so that she has extended family living there even though her parents were born in england), i think she’d let him help her stay in touch with her culture and they’d trade recipes too because jamaican food is god tier and everyone should try it (seriously)

one thing i’ve always been hesitant about is writing my dialect within fanfic. because like when it’s a standard language like french or english it just feels different ig like maybe people won’t be interested in jamaican creole as much because it’s not thought of as one of those romantic languages really it’s just broken english to many people and also it’s not really a language that’s formally written outside of jamaican literature or casual texting between jamaicans

but ykw i don’t think it should matter to me this much and i think i’ll write it regardless because my dialect deserves to be celebrated and also writing is supposed to be a form of expression, there’s no use worrying about what ppl will think about it really and i could def put end notes with translations and stuff

jesus this went from a headcanon to rant to me accepting that i’m allowed to write patois into my fics☠️

[trippygalaxy]

So i cant help but write abt this, im srry if like you dont have the same hair type or smt like that? Anyway i rlly dont see any fics abt curly haired readers SO why not write chaotic curly hair reader with the entire chain >:) Lol not the reader able to steal rupees and put them in their hair without the chain noticing >:DDDD HOPE U ENJOY BTW THIS IS JUST LIKE I LITTLE DRABBLE I THOUGHT OF NOT RLLY THE OFFICIAL OF THE OTHERS

I yell at wind cause for some reason he looked like he was getting sturdy on the water....thats wild frfr (sturdy is a type of dance btw) "this bun is killing me" I mumbled to myself, closing my sketchbook. I wore a bun the entire time i traveled with the chain. I had my reason tho. If i were to take of the bun, my hair would be a complete mess AND so poofy. Especially if i get it wet. Also i havent seen a curly haired person in all the hyrules yet so im not sure either way.... BUT IM TIRED SO YK WHAT? FUCK ALL THAT AND BYE BYE BUN!

[kyle-fiore]

Ill just drop various headcanons I have for the TWST characters. These are bound to change one day.. But, whatever.

My favs have them more detailed.. Aswell as theres little to no reason for them.

No specific theme to it all.

Self harm, ED, and sexual assualt mentions, Im sorry.

Heartslabyul

Riddle Rosehearts

AFAB, cis

Muslim (I want to see her at Vietnamese aswell, but I dont know..) Wears a hijab aswell.

Has an eating disorder.

Trey Clover

AFAB, transmasc, omnisexual

Cambodian, speaks English and Khmer

Autisitic & Bipolar (With depression and anxiety obviously..)

A part of the Felmier family, and I believe the Felmier and Clovers are related. Epel and Kyle are his cousins, to be exact.

Kasane fan for sure.

Feminine body, with a little chub of course. He definitely wears a binder. I think he would have an unfortunately big chest, and its especially bad for gym class. It mustve been hell in his first year...

A few beauty marks, and slightly darker skin with a yellow undertone. Definitely has the signature Kyle beauty mark. Aswell as having two on top of one another under his left eye. Freckles too, just because!

Slimmer, upwards eyes too.. And, a mullet-ish hairstyle.. I just want Trey with longer hair.

Cater Diamond

AFAB, transmasc

I dont know what race exactly, but I think he would be dark skinned anyway

Curly hair, because why not.

Cuts himself ocassionally and hides it in everyway he can.

Doesnt wear a binder (Non supportive family, not allowed to get one.), but hes flat chested enough to hopefully pass as male.

Definite eating disorder..

Deuce Spade

AMAB, transfem (Because I think she would go through an arc of wanting to disregard her previous identity as a deliquent, plus exploring gender in a way she believed she would be bullied for.)

Mexican

Super supportive mom (ILY Mama Spade), so shes on estrogen. Wears a bra since she believes shes already developing boobs. (Even though she had started is recently..)

Blonde tips in her hair. Also, her hair is just long enough to make a shirt ponytail, and shes very proud of that.

Ace Trappola

AMAB, cis

IDK hes just ginger.

Savanaclaw

They all have animal noses according to their species, by the way.

Leona Kingscholar

AMAB, transfem, omnisexual and poly

Extremely insecure about her looks, believing she looks "too masculine" to really express herself with feminine clothing.

SAed as a child (I think her place as being the second "son" and that she was ignored for her stand off-ish personality put her in a vulnerable state.)

Hypersexual, aswell as having alot of sex partners in the past.

Cuts herself often. Also, an achoholic and smokes.

Has an eating disorder. I dont know which exactly, but I think it would be a binge eating disorder or one that makes her not want to eat.

Muscular, but has the slightest feminine touch to her appearance. Developing boobs slowly, as shes on estrogen of course.

Hairy.. Its too canon, ok? Shaving is alot of effort.

Dreads, for sure! Nonchalant Dreadhead Leona may be canon.

Ruggie Bucchi

AMAB, cis

Has vitiligo (?)

IDK I dont pay much attention to him.

Jack Howl

AFAB, cis

Big, poofy afro.. Itd be so cute..

Most of my HCs for her are from my girlfriends original headcanons.

Octavinelle

They have features, like gills and scales, according to their species.

Azul Ashengrotto

AFAB, cis

Dark skinned, but I dont know what race..

Little octopus texture, or whatever it would be called, on her cheeks.

Also, her hair would be shaped like an octopus.

Definite eating disorder.

Chubby! Chubby Azul forever!

Jade Leech

AFAB, cis

Has vitiligo

Into Punk fashion and music, just for fun

Gills and whatever those fish ears that are on her eel form are. Its morphed with human ears.

Floyd Leech

AFAB, genderfluid

Has vitiligo

Definitely a Jirai Joshi. (Honestly, I think she would find out about it sometime after getting on land, think its cool and weirdly relatable, and just goes around presenting herself as that.)

Same eel features as Jade.

Scarabia

I dont have many headcanons for either..

Kalim Al-Asim

AFAB, non-binary (?)

Unfortunately definite eating disorder..

Jamil Viper

AFAB, cis

Has an eating disorder.

Pomefiore

Vil Schoenheit

AMAB, bigender, She/He pronouns

She doesnt need to be changed by my delusions.. Hes too perfect already..

Has an eating disorder, for sure..

Part German! Or, Japanese.. I dont know!

Rook Hunt

AMAB, cis

Freckles and tanned skin, please.. Muscular aswell.

Epel Felmier

AMAB, cis

Cambodian American, speaks a little Khmer

Used to wear glasses, but wears contacts now since he used to break the glasses often.

A part of the Clover family (Like I explained with Trey) Kyle and Trey are his cousins, to be exact.

Kyle, again, is his cousin that grew up beside him. Theyre practially brothers. They call each other "Lil' bro" and "Big bro" just because! Even if theyre the same age with a month difference.

Tanned skin, for sure. A few beauty marks here and there. Definitely the signature Kyle beauty mark.

Ignihyde

Idia Shroud

AMAB, cis, bisexual and poly

Greek, I think..

Super skinny and underweight. Likely has anorexia, or something along those lines.

Horrible Monster Energy addiction. Definitely has a collection of those Monster Energy guns.

Cuts himself often, though a few times being by accidents while working.

Bipolar? Autisitic, though.

Definitely a Jirai Danshi. But, hes too insecure to go out in Jirai Kei. He just dresses up for himself, and Magicam. He has the perfect look to be a Jirai..

Trys to keep himself and everything around him clean. Hates to be sweaty, or feel dirty in any way. It makes him want to rip his skin off. I think he would be a germaphobe, to some extent.

Takes showers often, but struggles to stay standing most of the time. Im sure hes passed out in the shower atleast a few times.. Ortho coming to help immediately, of course.

Ortho Shroud

Robot. Its hard to assign an assigned sex when his body is a robot. He is male though. Maybe, demiboy.

IDK.. Maybe freckles too. I think thatd be cute.

Diasomnia

Malleus Draconia

AFAB, cis, onmisexual and poly

A little chubby.. Because itd be super cute.. Plus, I heard that greek men preferred chubby girls. Source was my girlfriend.

Dragon scales on her body! Theyre especially visible on her cheeks.

I think she would have darker skin aswell. The image of have her eyes glow compared to the rest of her just feels right, you know?

Constant fear of the ones she loves leaving.

Lilia Vanrouge

AMAB, bigender

Presents however the hell he wants to, honestly.

Wears dark girly!

More on the muscular side, with cool battle scars.

I think him having small bat wing on him would be super cute.. They can grow bigger aswell.

Silver

AMAB, transfem, bisexual

Albino, for sure. I think she would have locs aswell.

Shes already perfect, honestly..

Sebek Zigvolt

AMAB, cis

Tanner skin and crocodile scales on his body, especially visible on his cheeks.

Very sharp features.. Also, slightly pointed ear. Or, maybe floppy ears?

I dont have HCs for the staff, side characters, or Grim.. I tried to hold back from adding their relations to my OCs. Its was required that Kyle was mentioned with Epel and Trey, though. My 2nd favorite trio!

I spent like an hour on this.. Oh well!♡

I was gonna add all the character tags, but I didnt know 30 tags was the limit?!?!

[anxiouslezbean]

nonstudy related, but im going to work with my natural hair out for the first time ever and im a tad nervous

last time i didnt even have my hair out but it was a kinky textured wig and some lady that isnt even in my department touched my hair which for a person with physical boundary issues was tbh lowercase t traumatizing

and this time is my real hair, not straightened, not in a wig, my hair the way it grows out of my head that ive always been self-conscious about

and i work in a corporate office so we’ll see if it attracts any negative attention from my bosses but knowing them i cant imagine it would be anything more than surprise and curiosity so that part im not too too worried about, i just dont want strangers to put their nasty hands in my hair 😭

i have been practicing a back up/slide away move with the phrase “i did not give you permission to touch me but i appreciate the compliment” and hopefully i got freeze and not do anything like i did before

ACTUALLY I SHOULD PEP TALK MYSELF

I am stronger than I was before

I am smarter than I was before

This is only the first step to growth, it will get easier with time

I will no longer let my past traumas dictate my present life, as I am a different version of myself that can handle these things better

Worst case scenario is I'm told not to wear my hair out again or I choose to wear my hair out less to protect myself-- I won't get fired for having an afro, someone inappropriately touching my hair will make me uncomfortable but it will not end my life

[kalopses-sonderes]

Tomorrow is a good and bad day

I took out the over 200 twist on my head so I have my afro out again, that means I dont have to put any make up on my forehead cause its covered. And it feels good to have all my hair out again😋

But I have my afro again.. in a white school full of people and teacher who ask if they can touch it, if its real, is it a wig, or their white friend has a bigger afro than me😐 and I gotta deal with the few other blacks students disrespect and them making fun of me for wearing natural hair and embracing the fact my hair IS beautiful and I wont stop loving it😒 they mommas would kill them if they found out what they say about other black women
