#epithet erased headcanons

[loonarmuunar]

Epithet side effect headcanons that somehow turned into disability stuff while I was writing 👍👍 (these are kinda angsty I did not intend for that to happen but uh here we are—)

Molly — sometimes if she overuses her epithet, it can almost “nullify” her mind in a sense, giving her short-term memory problems on occasion. Usually it’s mild and doesn’t have much effect, just normal everyday forgetfulness, but when it’s bad, her head gets really fuzzy and she can’t focus or remember anything, she gets awful migraines and headaches, and she has a sort of feverish mind (y’know like when you’re so sick ur head feels Weird and u can’t Brain right). It’ll go away pretty quickly as long as she rests, but uh. We know she ain’t getting much of that.

It’s really Stressful and frustrating for her, because she KNOWS she forgot something but she can’t remember WHAT in the slightest.

This doesn’t happen very often thankfully since she doesn’t strain her epithet much, it’s like a once-every-few-months kinda thing.

Giovanni — got this one from a fic, Giovanni has a lot of sodium in his blood (cause soup, salty) which gives him wonky blood pressure, and it causes chronic nosebleeds. I like this one a lot cause I used to get nosebleeds on like a weekly, and in the summer, daily basis as a kid.

He got his first nosebleed in late spring when he was about 5 or so, just running around outside. He didn’t notice (and trust me when I say it can be HARD to notice) for a LOOONGGGG time. He ended up losing a LOT of blood. When you get a nosebleed it can sometimes run down into your throat and you’ll start spitting up blood it’s Uncomfortable and Gross. Anyways he went back home, went “hi moms :3 *soaked in blood, choking up blood*” andddd they Freaked Out.

He’s anemic because of it, and has to take iron meds. If he forgets to take them he gets really dizzy, and if it’s particularly bad, he can faint.

Sylvie — Narcolepsy. And insomnia. You can have both (and from what I know, they often go hand-in-hand), and he is Not having a good time.

He’s exhausted during the day, he tries to take stimulants to stay up but they don’t always work. When it’s night, he can’t go to sleep for the life of him, and if he does, he wakes up very often. It’s Not Fun. Sometimes he just gives up, and sleeps all day, then works all night.

Mera — We know the side effects, but I’m gonna mess with it a bit (aka I’m projecting). The muscles around her joints are really weak and frail, meaning it’s looser, so she has Hypermobility. Possibly also Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. She’s got a lot of joint pain on top of her regular pain.

She’s got it b a d, if lifts her arm up too high it’ll jerk and she’ll be like “oh yup. Dislocated again.”

She’s absolutely COVERED in bruises and scars, whenever she has to get stitches it constantly tears. She heals horribly. She’s starting to develop arthritis as well.

Medication usually doesn’t do anything for hypermobility related pain, if you’re lucky it’ll take the edge off. Indus helps her out with heatpads and stuff, but other than that, she just has to tough it out.

Indus — nothing. Have u seen this man?? He probably drinks disgusting high vitamin smoothies every morning, he eats full proper meals, dude is in PEAK CONDITION. If he did have any side effects it would be completely negated by his sheer healthiness. Diseases and conditions fear him.

He is however that One Person who is prepared for Everything and will help u if u need it. He carries medication and heatpads for Mera in case she forgets them, as well as bandaids and antiseptic wipes. He’s just a Good fella… <33

I didn't get around to drawing any art of this but I wanna offer up Cupioromantic to the hcs for Lorelai at the table.

Cuz like, do I have to explain? Lorelai wanting to feel romantic attraction for someone else, wanting romance and a romantic relationship with someone else, but being unable to actually feel that. Lorelai creating love interests for herself and trying over and over to feel romantic attraction and.. nothing. She likes the romance ofc but she can't make herself feel it

Like I could totally see her buying into the idea "she needs to find the right person" bs cuz she'd be in denialll for a while abt being aromantic

After discovering how to shape her epithet, Molly shapes her mute bubbles into little bear earmuffs. She can also change how much they dumb down the world around her, the earmuffs look more solidified the more powerful the effect

IMPORTANT QUESTION!!!!

Does Giovanna conider.... CEREAL to be a SOUP???

I think he'd argue that cereal is a cream, to be honest with y

[flicklikesstuff]

“Maybe the flash was to blame. Or maybe it’s his shrunken state that gave the looming witch the illusion of being exactly 10 feet tall.

Whatever it was, it had flicked something within. Suddenly, he was no longer a lizard. Nor a great, powerful wizard. Not even “Rick Shades.”

He was a little Gourami.

Only 12 years old. Eyes wide and unobscured. Skin smooth from the lack of scars. But most of all, untainted by the horrors.

And unlike that little Gourami, he was entirely aware of what’s coming for them. He could warn the 12 year old. Maybe save them even. Tell her that continuing this approach is a bad, BAD, VERY TERRIBLY BAD IDEA!!

…

But he couldn’t.”

My inspiration pieces: :)

Sylvie has a bad habit of assuming the worst in Giovanni. And when he gets upset, he gets defensive. Some instances of this are more lighthearted and easy to resolve! This is one of those instances

Ft. Tourettic Giovanni again. Tourettes awareness month is in a week and I will not be able to hold myself back when it arrives. Prepare yourselves

[euniearts]

love him an appletun ^o^

[nameless-cloudz]

I'm genuinely surprised that I find no one saying that Sylvie has controlling parents.

And I feel like we don't THINK about his parents more like HELLO??? Your child just beat up some people he just met, got involved in a robbery, GOT BEAT UP and probably broke his ribs, GOT HIS EPITHET STOLEN, AND GOT SENT TO THE HOSPITAL. ARE YOU HEARING THIS SHIT RN?

And the fact that he says that he has NEVER been secure in his life means that he probably got neglected by his parents

And him graduating college so early with a PHD, and becoming A DAMN PSYCHOLOGIST at the age of FIF-FOCKING-TEEN probably gave him TOO MUCH PRESSURE. LIKE I CAN'T EVEN STUDY FOR AN EXAM WITHOUT BEING STRESSED HOW TF DO YOU EXPECT HIM TO DO THAT BEING ALL NON-CHALANT?

He literally lacks street smart and is more of book smart pls 🙏

And someone PLEASE GET HIM SOME REAL-ASS GODDAMN FRIENDS LIKE WYM YOU DOESN'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS?

Jello I'm begging you PLS DROP SYLVIE LORE AND MY LIFE IS YOURS.

Lyrics for Feenie are here!!! 🐑🐑🐑

[zoinkszuben]

as someone who was raised by two parents who were both deeply punk in the 90s and introduced me to punk music at the ripe age of since I was genuinely born… and punk music was integral to my childhood development and it’s still integral to me as an adult…..

giovanni potage is punk as fuck. he is punk as HELL! he is PUNK! he doesn’t give a fuck!!!

loud, rebellious and renegade nature, wears skirts and nail polish because he isn’t ashamed of breaking gender norms, encourages his friends to stand up for themselves, stands up FOR his friends….

yes while it’s true punk (at its core when it first came about) was about just rebelling against SOMETHING in general, and it wasn’t really doing things for the good of people. in fact, many punk artists from the time period it was most popular were genuinely pieces of shit

but there’s a sorta… modern punk wave going around as of late that I’m feeling, mostly in a lot of trans spaces, and it’s super awesome because much of it IS about helping one another and rebelling against harmful systems. and that’s what I’m here for man

anyway I love giovanni potage he is a punk in the cool way nobody can change my mind

More Zora headcanons be upon ye.

Zora is really superstitious. She’s picked up a lot of superstitions from drifting, and she has firm believes in destiny and fate. She also has a few beliefs that come just from her knowing Nothing about the world, and being all street smarts and NO book smarts.

Percy: get in the car Zora

Zora: I dunno, I’ve never met your car, and I don’t have any treats on me. Should I let them sniff me first? I don’t wanna spook em, that’d be bad.

Percy:

Percy: what

Zora: what

*A few months prior*

Yoomtah, driving: I can’t slow down we gotta zooommmm

Zora: you can’t keep her runnin forever. She’ll tire out eventually y’know, and that’s just cruel ain’t it? I’m no car wrangler but I don’t think that’s right.

Yoomtah: literally what the fuck are you saying

Zora: you aughta treat your car better. I can excuse murder but I draw the line at animal cruelty

Yoomtah:

Yoomtah, desperately holding back wheezing: YOU’RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ZORA. I’LL SLOW DOWN AND GET SOME GAS.

CUPIOROMANTIC LORELAI MY BELOVEDDD

she is in my heart

[some-weird-fish-guy]

Mera has actually commissioned Ramsey to draw her fursona a couple times in the past. Mera looked over Ramsey’s shoulder once while he was drawing in their cell and her heart sank

[epithetemporium]

reguarding the trixie mario kart post,

do you have thoughts for the other characters? like mains/ skill level/ play style that kinda thing

love ur posts sm :3

(Naww thank you <33)

Molly

she WILL hit you with that green shell

especially right before the finish line

in fact all that stored up anger makes her incredibly good at sniping people with items

Molly knows about a few shortcuts but doesn't really use them because she's too worried about ruining her race by failing them

mains Toadette (and Isabelle but technically she isn't really a Mario Kart character but I'll ignore it since she's in the game)

her favorite track is Maple Treeway

Phoenica

She's too nice to use the items

actually she doesn't even really RACE at all, because it's irresponsible to drive a vehicle at these speeds

Feenie tries to apply real world driving laws to Mario Kart

it does not go well

there are no laws in Baby Park, only chaos

She loves the Princess drivers the most and adores the Babies

Uses smart steering

ALWAYS picks Daisy Circuit because of the statues of Luigi and Daisy together (she thinks they're very adorable)

Trixie

as said, she mains Drybones

Trixie knows ALL the important game breaking things. Shortcuts, best item spots, what would theoretically be the best combo, you name it

I think they'd prefer the bikes over the karts

favorite tracks are Coconut Mall (the Mario Kart fandom will understand why), Mushroom Gorge and Boo Lake

has to intentionally play bad so people don't stop playing with her at all

if anyone has a perfect rating in all cups at all speeds it's Trixie

Rick

he's terrible

I don't think he has fully figured out how a race works, even though he was told multiple times

this man right here plays as a Mii racer, you can't change my mind

he likes playing together with Phoenica. They don't race, they just drive around the courses and look at the pretty scenery together

if he ever gets any speed item in the item roulette he will cause chaos

probably drives backwards and against walls as we're speaking

Giovanni

the way he plays makes you think he's really bad at hiding that he lets you win

.....oh wait no, he's actually worse than thought-

he's oddly competitive even though his skills aren't the best but will intentionally play even worse when he knows someone is having a bad day

mostly uses King Boo, Waluigi and Birdo

favorite tracks include: Excitebike Arena, 3DS Neo Bowser City, Waluigi Pinball and Choco Mountain

he also has terrible luck in this game

loses most of his good items to shocks or gets hit over and over again

Sylvie

oh PLEASE he's way too adult for childish games like these

if you invite him over he'll spend the entire day infront of this game, experiencing inhuman joy whenever he gets a top spot, but he'll never admit it

Lorelai

I feel like if anyone were to cheat in Mario Kart it would be her

I'm not even sure how but she probably finds a way

actually this game would be terrible for her she will get so frustrated over this

she sometimes uses tracks like the Rainbow Roads, Rosalina's Ice World and Sky-High Sundae as inspirations for her Dream Bubbles

most likely likes Rosalina and Daisy the most

Zora

she will make your life a living hell here

sometimes she doesn't even drive she just...waits at the line with items....ready to ruin your entire game

she could totally win if she wanted to but she'd have fun in just targeting some player

[sadsoftserve]

Hear me out, Hypoglycemic Percy? (Its a little headcanon, based off her low stamina and epithet a bit.)
