Kuya Dating HCs

[RATED 18+ bc of the nature of the game, NU: carnival)

…HOW?

SERIOUSLY HOW??

Getting Kuya to admit he cares about you is like trying to pull blood from a stone – its impossible

Though some males can be polyamorous, Foxes usually mate for life

once they’ve picked their partner, they’ll stay with them for their whole life; even if their partner dies early – which is especially poignant for Kuya because of his extended lifespan as a yokai

because of this, Kuya is one of the people I can actually see being exclusive with you

In my Yakumo HCs, I said most likely it would be Yakumo dating both you and Eiden

But depending if you start dating Kuya pre-Eiden Era or even early-Eiden era – he’ll be much more devoted to you than the new grand sorcerer (although Kuya will still torment him, lol sorry Eiden)

Kuya’s love languages are (weirdly enough) quality time and receiving/giving gifts

I KNOW it sounds crazy but here he out

For quality time – he is obsessed with you, in every way possible

He wants to be around you by any means, even through some mischief and trickery

Hes the type to pretend to be bored while listening to you rant about something, but he actually commits every word to memory

He also never misses an anniversary or milestone in your guy’s relationship

He’ll make any excuse to see you, from ‘he was just bored’ to ‘he left something here last time and he might as well hang out while hes here,’

For gift giving – 1) he loves receiving gifts and 2) he loves your face when he gives you the perfect gift

Kuya knows that he is not a very ‘honest’ partner – he doesn’t verbalise how he feels and basically has never said the words ‘I love you’

Which is why his gifts are so thoughtful and sincere

Whether its your favourite flowers, or something important to you (art, work, etc) – or even just something you eyed for an extra second in the market, his gifts are so meaningful and you can always tell there is a large amount of thought put behind it

He will never give it to you directly but rather leave it in a spot he knows for a fact you’ll find it and probably write some vague, sarcastic note (which more often than not, clues you into the fact that its from Kuya)

He’ll be watching from behind a corner (or hidden in the room with magic) to see your reaction because – while he is a smug man – he wants to make you happy

Kuya is a smug kisser – he knows hes good

I truly believe that while Kuya is a smug bastard, hes also a huge softie behind all of the snark and smirks

He genuinely cannot resist putting his hands all over you, though he’ll frame it as him simply trying to tease you in classic Kuya fashion

Kuya is the type to rarely use your actual name, only referring to you by nicknames/petnames that are designed to rile you up

‘little one’ and ‘sweet thing’ are for when hes feeling particularly teasing

Though, in his softer moments – he’ll slip up and murmur a soft ‘love’ under his breath

He would actually appreciate his own petnames – something personal to him

In the forest, he has his own garden with magic flowers

something along the lines of ‘lavender’ or ‘wisteria’ when you’re feeling sweet – and ‘foxtail’ when you’re feeling a little mischievous yourself

do u guys like. platonically self ship with anyone

[eggiesins]

Your post gave me a silly idea. Would the bachelors take a goth gf, punk gf, or emo gf. This is an important question for science. And if you feel up to it, you should do the girls too sometime. No pressure though.

Anon, I am nothing if not an avid scientist.

This list is gonna be bulleted, as it's more category focused rather than scenario focused. Since it's a shorter prompt, I also have the bachelorettes included!

Prompts are for a gender-neutral builder

Let me know what y'all think! I'm eager to see what categories the rest of the community would assign to the townies. Methodology, headcanons, and some spoilers below the cut :)

Methodology: Since we are using 3 categories, I wanted to offer up how I'm defining these categories based on my own understanding of these subcultures, so I judged the choices based on a combination of the subculture's general (probably oversimplified) philosophy as well as its aesthetics.

Goth philosophy: The world is fucked up & I find beauty in that Punk philosophy: The world is fucked up & I'm angry about it Emo philosophy: The world is fucked up & I'm sad about it

Bachelors:

Arvio

Punk for sure; he's infatuated with the grumpiest doctor in town. He likes 'em angry

Burgess

I already said this man deserves a goth s/o, & I stand by it. Punk seems too ARC-adjacent, & emo seems like it might just bum him out.

Ernest

Goth for sure; they're writing poetry at the cemetery together

Fang

Torn between emo & goth tbh; like yes, let him despair about the darkness in the world, but I do love the idea of Fang learning to appreciate that darkness as well

Justice

Goth; Justice doesn't tend to go looking for the beauty in the darkness, but I think he'd be very receptive to the idea

Logan

Punk; He can definitely relate to lashing out with anger when things are fucked up

Miguel

"None of these words are in the bible."

Emo 100%, they can both be sad about the state of the world together

Owen

Maybe emo or goth, tho I'm leaning toward emo the more I think about the plot of the play during his proposal quest.

Pablo

Goth for sure. You know his lines after Heidi wins the architecture competition, but she's not happy about it? Yeah.

Pen

Punk; the aggressiveness of the aesthetic & worldview would pose both an interesting challenge and complement to his own "survival of the fittest" mentality

Qi

It's a fuckin toss up tbh, Qi doesn't know what any of these words mean

That being said, I lowkey love the idea of Qi being romanced by a more punk builder

This mad scientist definitely understands what it means to rage against the machine (of academic bureaucracy)

Unsuur

Goth! Unsuur also knows the world is a fucked up place but he's very much in tune with still finding the beauty in it all.

He'd spend cemetery dates studying the different kinds of rock used for the headstones

Bachelorettes:

Amirah

Goth! Look at some Victorian-era pottery & tell me that ain't it

Catori

Either punk or emo. Catori does fall into some more emo moments when she experiences setbacks, so I could see compatible philosophies, but she also responds really well when the builder kinda tells her that this isn't the time to get bogged down in sadness, but to get more aggressive & keep facing her challenges head on

Elsie

elsie's a weird little freak who 100% rages against the machine; punk

Grace

Goth, perfect aesthetic complement to grace's more girlypop kinda look

Grace has also Seen Some Shit, so a philosophy centered around finding beauty in the bad would vibe with her really well

Heidi

Gothic architecture, 'nuff said. But to add more anyway: her muse is literally her dead mother

Jane

Emo for sure. I'm seeing dramatic Hamlet-inspired monologues about how cold and sad the world is

Mi-an

Emo. Mi-an is generally a really positive person, but we do see in-game that a lot of it is really more a mask that she keeps in place by throwing herself into her work. Underneath all that, she deals with a lot of hopelessness and sadness internally.

Nia

Punk! Nia fights for what she believes in so I think the philosophies would align really well. I think she'd also enjoy the aesthetic quite a bit

Venti

Goth for sure; basically, the only character trait we get to know about her is that she's relentlessly optimistic & will always look for what's good or nice even in a terrible situation

I highly recommend putting easter eggs in your fics that only YOU might ever know about!

here's one >D this food mentioned in TEG:

“Woo! Good enough for me!” Rodimus flopped back down into his co-captain's chair. “Does anyone know what the Swerve special is today?” “Vosnian crystal curls,” said Blaster quietly. “With spicy red sauce.” “Mmm,” said Rodimus. “Spicy sauce.”

was first written in Face the Past:

They pushed all the stools and chairs together and set out a big feast. Skywarp had bought a strange assortment. It was odd to have Vosnian crystal curls on the same plate as Polyhexian cubefruit, thought Flatline, but hey, they were a strange mix of mechs anyway. There were specialty drinks in containers that changed colors as you drank and an assortment of small treats Spreem had made. Mirage laughed and smiled, cutting everything into pieces and chewing it slowly and declaring each bite more delicious than the last. Skywarp watched him, field flowing in and out with happiness. Flatline watched the monitors.

there was really no narrative reason to do this. I did it because it delighted me

delight yourself with your creative works :D

bitter has taken over my life and I'm ok with that

[19calicos]

the most healing thing in the world is seeing “@eggyrocks reblogged your post” in my notifs

[cocoalatez]

Got an idea for a fic where the two companies hire extremely specific people who have superficial similarities to the mercs in game (only german men who wear glasses and have tangential knowledge of healthcare for example) and send them to go fight in the gravel wars but they slowly realize that they're becoming the mercs

Like medic for example slowly has the horrifying realization that he's getting a very very morbid sense of curiosity and bloodlust or pyro loosing the ability to talk outside of the mask and getting schizophrenia

Medic, pyro, and scout mcs because they're my boyes and I love them

Anyways would yall read that?

Edit: here it is!

[eggnogisdead]

As soon as Russel got home, they immediately got to packing. Their plan was to stay at a hotel in Snowwood (which is where they went to school, and where one of the ‘chosen four’, Jeff, lived), until the starmen found them. Then they’d keep hopping through cities until, A, the starmen give up, B, the starmen manage to kill her, or C, she runs out of money and the starmen kill her anyways.

“Can’t forget this.” He said to himself as he put his Nintendo DS in his suitcase. Russel paused. She wasn’t in too much of a rush. She could afford to play some Chrono Trigger.

As soon as she opened up the DS, she was greeted by bloodshot yellow eyes staring at her from behind the screen, similar to the eyes on the possessed TV from last night.

"Oh FUCK OFF!" She said, exasperated. "I HATE THE GHOSTS!"

They almost threw their DS out the window, but stopped. Their DS was very valuable, and also it was, for some reason, talking to them.

"So, Mr. Abendessen. I heard you were trying to get out of Monsoon. I can he-"

"WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY LIFE."

"Calm down Mr. Abendessen. I'm trying to help you. Ok ですか? Listen very carefully."

Russel was so shocked that they couldn’t even think of anything to say.

"Giygas is real. Don't believe the fools living in denial. It's true that the chosen 4 killed them 10 years ago, but do you really think Giygas is the only one of their kind? On a planet at the ends of our galaxy, there are more like them, but... less corrupted. The armies of that planet are still active, sending starmen, and "UFOs", and "ghosts" like me to Earth. Mr. Abendessen, you are one of the only people left with PSI. You can save the world."

"Why can't you just get the chosen four from 10 years ago? They're still alive! I just want to get away from the starmen, not get dragged into a stupid adventure."

"They'll replace you if you die."

"What the hell is wrong with you?"

"I’m your most sane friend, Mr. Aben-"

"No. Stop that. You’re NOT my friend. Why do you know my last name? Why are you in my DS? WHY ARE YOU IN MY LIFE?!"

Before the DS ghost could say anything, Russel shut the DS and buried it under the couch cushions.

Suddenly, the same yellow eyes appeared behind the screen of the digital clock on Russel's microwave, which began floating over to Russel.

"GET OUT OF MY LIFE!" Screamed Russel

"I'll make this quick Mr. Abysmal. There is a starman factory in Onett, Eagleland. I'll teleport you to Onett, you destroy the factory, and then you can go home and I'll just get the chosen 4 to save the world. But you replace them if THEY die. Deal?"

Russel thought to himself. The ghost wasn’t trying to kill him, but was very annoying and wouldn’t leave him alone, which was worse. The only way to get the stupid ghost to shut up was to go to Onett.

"Okay fine. I'll take the deal. I destroy the factory, and then we go right back or else I'll BURN you ALIVE. And we NEVER speak again.”

"Alright then.”

Yakumo Dating HCs

[RATED 18+ bc of the nature of the game, NU: carnival)

COOKING TOGETHER

Whether you already know how to cook or not, Yakumo wants to show you how

It’s a love language for him in a way

He loves cooking and its important to him so he wants to share that with you

I think cooking and almost ‘providing’ for the people he cares about is his way of showing that he cares about you and wants you to be happy and safe

I think I’m just describing acts of service lol

His love languages are acts of service and words of affirmation

Yakumo is a very kind, sensitive soul – and that has caused him to become somewhat of a people pleaser

His worst fear is for you to think he doesn’t love or care you – because he does. He loves you so much that he feels the need to show it both with his words and actions

Realistically – in a relationship between the both of you, Eiden is going to be there as well

I just can’t see a world in which Yakumo isn’t hopelessly yearning for him

But just because he is also involved with Eiden, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you any less

In fact, if you and Eiden got along; I think that would make him even more smitten with the both of you

The two loves of his life getting along (or even… ‘getting along’)? Heart eyes, swooning, nose bleed

I swear, he really do be fainting like this is some romantic comedy or something smh

But even though he loves Eiden, he makes it very EXTREMELY clear that he will always love you as well – and he’ll do everything he can to make sure you don’t just know that you’re loved, but you also feel that you’re loved

Yakumo is a very timid, but eager partner

Hes excited and eager, but shy and easily embarrassed

PDA (or any displays of affection really) will never fail to make him blush red like a tomato

And any insinuation of ‘other activities’ will make him stutter and fluster like a victorian peasant witnessing a woman’s ankles for the first time

But despite his timidness, he really is so happy when you cuddle up to him and kiss him

Running your fingers through his hair will make him shiver with delight and fondness and he’ll look at you with the most adoring gaze

Yakumo is a shy kisser – even with years of practice, he kisses like hes about to bolt

But prolong the contact and he’ll melt into a puddle

He never knows where to put his hands so at first they’ll softly tremble at his sides or in the air – but when he really starts to feel it, his shaking hands will move to grip onto your elbows or shoulders

He will never voluntarily go to grab your waist because he is so nervous that hes going to accidently make you uncomfortable (even though hes the sweetest little thing ever)

He only uses nicknames sometimes, when hes feeling particularly loving and doting

His go-to is sweet and simple – a softly mumbled “dear” as he passes you a plate of steaming food

If hes feeling particularly sensitive or emotional, he might bust out the ‘my love’ or ‘love of my life’

Can I ask how you pronounce "Athenas"? Also, how did you come up with it? Like is it related to "Athena" or?

Ooo okay, so the answer is kinda lame, but Athena was always a super interesting figure when I was growing up. In most games I play, I usually have at least one character with some play on her name, especially if Im trying to go for a more heroic play-through.

For Sandrock specifically, I really like the odd names like Email and Unsuur, so I wanted to make a character with a name that sounds familiar enough but has a little bit more of a lore-friendly sound.

It wasn’t anything super in-depth, but I think it suits her nicely :)

send me a "۞" and I'll introduce you to one of my other muses

"oh, who's this? another man-thing that mother left us to feast upon?" there's a curious glint to the blonde's gaze as she leans up close to gather a better look. though hooded, it is easy to see the missing fragment of blonde locks, messy attempts of covering it up alongside the noticeable scar that accompanies it. that, or the dried blood that's practically stained to her face. "how shall i present you? torn into little pieces, or left to bleed out slowly for my sisters to take a bite as well?"
