Feliciano 'Empath' Vargas showing Lud that he understands his feelings

How They are When Jealous (Axis)

Headcanons for how I think the Hetalia characters would act when they're jealous of someone hitting on their S/O.

Italy: Feliciano doesn't doubt your love for a second, but he can get pretty jealous if a man is giving you extra attention, or outright flirting with you. While not one for conflict, he'd be quick to stand by your side and put an arm around your waist or shoulders, pulling you closer to him, all with a smile on his face as he tries to engage the other man in polite conversation. Feli will do his best to show that you're his without starting a fight. And if the guy is extra persistent, Feli will straight up tell the man that you're his before swiftly escorting you away from the scene.

Germany: Just like Feliciano, Ludwig doesn't doubt your love for him, not even for a second. However, the man does sometimes feel like he's not good enough for you, and sometimes wonders if you'll wake up one day and realize that you deserve better. He understands that he's not the most emotionally open, and that people are often intimidated by him. So when he sees another man flirting with you, he'll suddenly become very self-conscious. He may not say anything in the moment but might bring it up later at home. You'll have to reassure him that you love him, and that that's not changing anytime soon.

Japan: Kiku doesn't get jealous that often. Whenever someone flirts with you, he's able to largely ignore it. After all, you're a beautiful person, lovely, even. Who wouldn't flirt with you? But it would irk him a little if you flirted back with the other person. He also isn't above sending dirty looks or death glares to someone who's getting just a little too friendly with you. If this happens, and the death glare has no effect on the other guy, he'd be quick to respectfully tell him farewell and try dragging you away.

Prussia: Gilbert is no stranger to jealousy. As someone who's had unrequited feelings for someone before, he's no stranger to the pain of watching someone he adores being charmed by someone else. But make no mistake, Gilbert's a very proud man who will never admit to being jealous. What would happen is that, if he saw another man flirting with you, he'd be quick to slide on over and lazily wrap an arm around your shoulder, pulling you close and asking the man what he and his s/o are talking about. Placing extra emphasis on you being his s/o. After the two of you eventually walk away, he'd likely send the man either a death glare or a cocky smirk over his shoulder.

Romano: Alright, you think Ludwig is self-conscious? Lovino is worse. While Ludwig is used to people avoiding him because he's intimidating, Lovino is used to people just avoiding and leaving him in general. He's used to never being anyone's first, second, or even third choice. So when he sees another man flirting with you, his inner alarm bells go off. Immediately becoming confrontational, he'd put himself between you and the man and ask him who he thinks he's talking to, and that you're his. If the man doesn't bolt right then, you'd have to be the one to help deescalate the situation, leading to a possible argument/discussion at home. Is this a red flag? Yes, absolutely. And while he loves you, this is definitely something Lovino would have to work on in a relationship.

Transient lore overview

Figured at this point I have enough separate OC verses, let alone actual OCs themselves that its worthwhile to make big overview pages that describe all of their settings, characters, themes, connections, etc.

Transient is a OCverse i've been working on for a few years now ft. Sulu, Function, Felis, Splish, and Alpha in a fantasy space setting. In my head the intended format is an episodic cartoon comedy series, akin to things like regular show, futurama, adventure time, etc with no overarching ""plot"" per se, just following characters as they interact and develop.

Sulu:

Sulu is the main character, he travels throughout sea-space solving problems and helping people however he can. He is very competent and gives things his all until a problem is solved.

He spends a large portion of his time alone, but he frequently links up from his friends Felis and Splish when the need arises. He has a warm, comforting, friendly personality but doesn't often stick around long enough to form deeper bonds. Hes akin to a benevolent trader joes staffer that gives you a soothing sense of ease as he guides you where to the munster cheese is stocked, but like two ships passing never again will your two paths meet.

Sulu as a character is very dedicated and compassionate, and is genuinely motivated in helping others. That being said, there is a deeper layer to his unwavering dedication. Its a two-pronged coping strategy and distraction from his own struggles. He often ignores any ill that happens to him as a result of obsessively working and puts off addressing his own problems to an extremely problematic degree. His struggles with depression and self neglect end up devolving into the primary conflict.

Function:

Function is the closest thing to an antagonist the series has. Function is an entity originally from the realm of pure math that got wedged in what he refers to as "the meat world" (ie the physical world). By nature his intent is to increase disorder without bound. He's still adjusting to being stuck in the physical world and doesnt always understand the harm he's causing by driving chaos into systems. Although most of the time he is still uncomfortable in having a physical form, he adores thematics and getting attention from others. He has an expressive, energetic, rambunctious personality.

At first he poses a serious risk as a genuinely harmful figure in a cotton-candy marshmallow world, and Sulu has to frequently neutralize his actions. This causes a comical nemesis-esc relationship between the two, but in time as he adjusts and copes with his situation he settles down more into a goofy, campy 90's anime rival archetype and the two form a more genuine bond. He becomes great friends with Alpha, forming a "chaos crew" as the two largely goof around and make the most of things. He has a significantly hard time processing emotional turmoil as he's still trying to wrap his head around basic day-to-day functioning, let alone complicated interpersonal conflicts.

Alpha, Felis, Splish:

The other core cast consists of Felis, Splish the fish, and Alpha.

Felis is Sulu's current best friend, as they spend the most time together and work in tandem often. Felis is genuinely an out-of-place-astronaut, as all the other denizens are aquatic creatures. Felis has a classic goofy cat-like personality, they like to be entertained and pal around, but can struggle with serious matters and completing long-form tasks.

Splish is a space safety ranger and works hard to keep everyone safe and happy and within the rules. He employs Sulu's help on the very frequent occasion when he is out of his depth. He doesn't really comprehend serious matters at all, as he belongs squarely to the "marshmallow head" class of sea-space critters. (Felis is capable of processing serious things, but often elects to not engage)

Alpha is a character from Sulu's past, in particular his former closest friend. She and Sulu were incredibly close in their teens and early 20s, but she eventually lost contact as he splintered off and isolated. Alpha gets frustrated with his lack of care towards his own health and functioning, especially how it affects others around him, seeing it as not taking proper responsibility for himself. She clicks with Function not just because they both have very similar bombastic personalities, but also because she admires how dedicated Function is to adjusting to his new circumstances and improve himself. She is wickedly driven, she loves new experiences and exciting things and is overall incredibly active, but can be somewhat introverted. sort of a "i want to do cool things, but only with the 2 people i have allowed into my inner circle". Holds grudges like the dickens.

Setting:

The setting itself is supposed to be a fusion between underwater and space, there are lots of fish, whales, coral formations etc scattered throughout open space. The various planets act more reefs, collecting lots of life and activity. From afar things look more like ""space"" with planets, stars, galaxies, etc, but the actual deinzens tend to resemble either fish or cartoony space aliens. The overall palette is very bright, colorful, and pastel tones to reflect the cheery, cotton-candy environment.

Concept:

Most of the types of problems Sulu, Felis and Splish work on are lighthearted or comical in nature, such as chauffeuring constellations around, babysitting in a stellar nursery, fishing for asteroids, a mediating in a break up between a binary star system, trying to fix the cowlic generated by the hairy ball theorem, cleaning up a milk spill in a galaxy, a magnetar that keeps demagnetizing people's credit cards, things spontaneously gaining more degrees of non-trivial rotational symmetry, neutron star bowling, and other sorts of whimsical space/math problems.

Every so often something more serious pops up, like a quasar posing a legitimate threat or instability in the laws of physics such as a power on a spatial dependence term flickering back and forth, but 90% of the time its cartoony situations, a la regular show. Another equally descriptive statement would be "Cyberchase but with 30-40yr old queer anime people."

Elephant in the room, Sulu is indeed intended to be an outlet/projection/expression of my own struggles with depression and how severe depressive episodes get entangled with my work and social life, but on a more surface level I also enjoy working on this thing because 1) i like drawing fish, 2) i love using vivid colors, and 3) I love being obnoxious about math and physics jokes while stuck in the throes of a physics phd myself.

would u consider gerita headcanons with regrssor germany and caretaker feli? particularly maybe padded ludwig whos shy about it but feli reassures him? feli doesnt mind, he loves taking care of ludwig, and babies just need extra love and care! tsym!

Ludwig as an Age Regressor

•Ludwig is very disciplined, serious, and used to being in control, so the idea of needing to regress or wear something like a diaper ( so padded ) would likely make him feel very shy and embarrassed. He might struggle with feeling vulnerable and out of character in his regressed state

•However, Feliciano is there to reassure him with his naturally gentle and carefree nature. He’s not judgmental and would likely tell Ludwig, "Bambini just need a little extra love and care! It’s okay, I love taking care of you"

•Overcoming Embarrassment : Ludwig might hesitate to ask Feliciano for help at first, but Feliciano would instinctively notice when Ludwig needs comfort. Feliciano could easily calm Ludwig down by encouraging him with his cheerful, optimistic outlook, reminding him that it’s okay to let go of responsibilities sometimes, especially with someone who loves him unconditionally. "Luddy, don’t worry! It’s nothing to be embarrassed about"

•One of the main triggers for Ludwig's regression could be the overwhelming stress from his responsibilities and his need for order. When things become too much to handle, his mind seeks comfort in a simpler, softer state. Feliciano would start to recognize the signs when Ludwig is on the verge of needing to regress, like when his usually precise behavior becomes more tense and his expression more worried

•Though he’s too shy to ask, Ludwig secretly finds comfort in a pacifier. Feliciano would probably have one on hand and offer it without hesitation, teasing in a lighthearted way like, "Here, Luddy! I know you like it" to make Ludwig feel less embarrassed about using it

•Despite his initial embarrassment, Ludwig would gradually start to find genuine comfort in being cared for by Feliciano. He’d never say it out loud, but he’d secretly enjoy those rare moments where he doesn’t have to be the strong, responsible one. When Feliciano holds him, Ludwig feels safe and loved, something he doesn’t allow himself to experience often

•One of the first signs that Ludwig is starting to regress might be his attachment to something soft and comforting, like a blanket or a plush toy Feliciano gave him. Perhaps he even has a favorite plushie (maybe a little stuffed dog, since Ludwig loves dogs) that Feliciano keeps just for these moments

•In his regressed state, Ludwig might speak in simpler sentences or just make soft, mumbled noises, especially when he’s feeling too shy or overwhelmed to talk. Feliciano would understand this immediately and would speak gently, offering lots of positive reassurances, like, "It’s okay, you don’t have to say anything, sweetheart. I’m right here!"

•Ludwig, padded and feeling small, might be too shy to walk around on his own, but Feliciano would take his hand and encourage him to move around, saying softly, "Come on, Ludwig! You’re doing so well. Let’s go play!" Feliciano’s cheerful encouragement would help Ludwig feel less nervous

•Outside of his regressed state, Ludwig would be incredibly grateful to Feliciano for his care, but he’d also be a little shy about it, hoping no one else ever finds out. Feliciano would never tell a soul and would probably tease Ludwig lightly

Feliciano as a Caretaker

•Feliciano has a more carefree and affectionate personality, and in a caretaker role, he would genuinely enjoy doting on Ludwig. Whether it’s making sure Ludwig has soft blankets, a bottle, or just snuggling, Feliciano would be completely in his element. He’s used to showing affection and being tactile, so he’d be the perfect calming influence for Ludwig’s anxiousness

•Feliciano could add a playful element to his caregiving. He could baby-talk Ludwig in an affectionate way or sing little songs, making sure to lighten the mood when Ludwig is feeling shy about his regressive state. Feliciano’s famous pasta-making might even become a comforting thing for Ludwig when he’s regressed—Feliciano could make special soft foods or warm soups to give Ludwig a sense of security and warmth !

•Feliciano would make bath time a soothing routine for Ludwig when he’s regressed. He’d make sure the water is warm, and add bubbles or soft toys to make it more comforting and fun. He might even hum a little tune to keep Ludwig calm, gently washing his hair and making sure he feels completely cared for

•Their relationship already has a natural balance, with Ludwig being the serious, structured one and Feliciano being more easygoing and affectionate. In moments where Ludwig is regressed, that balance would shift slightly, allowing Feliciano to take on a more protective role while Ludwig lets go of his usual need for control. This would strengthen their bond, as Ludwig would feel safe enough to rely on Feliciano completely

•If Ludwig is feeling especially small and regressed, Feliciano might even feed him soft foods like pasta with light sauce, or simple soups. He’d make sure it’s something gentle and easy to eat, smiling the whole time and reminding Ludwig that he’s doing a great job. He might joke playfully, "See? You’re such a good boy, Luddy! So strong, even when you’re little!"

•One of Feliciano’s favorite things would be snuggling with Ludwig during nap time. After making sure Ludwig is comfortable and padded, Feliciano would tuck him in with lots of blankets and stay close, sometimes reading him a story or just holding his hand until he falls asleep. Feliciano himself might even doze off next to him, keeping the mood light and peaceful

•Ludwig is deeply self-conscious about needing things like a diaper or soft clothes when he’s regressed. Feliciano would sense this and never make him feel bad. Instead, he might say, "you look so cute like this, really! No need to be shy!" Feliciano would help Ludwig into more comfortable clothes, always doing it in a way that feels gentle and unhurried, so Ludwig can relax

•Art Time : Feliciano might set up a little art time for regressed Ludwig, giving him crayons and paper to draw with. Ludwig, though a little embarrassed, would enjoy scribbling quietly while Feliciano draws beside him, praising his work and keeping the atmosphere lighthearted

If you're in the basic criteria , are DSMP fans, vivziep0p fans , h0tel/h3lluva b0ss fans, Owl h0use fans, St4r butterfly fans, Ghibli fans, ddlg/abdl blogs, nsfw/k!nk blogs, anti-agere blogs, or anti Christians/Christianity blogs : just dont interact !

Ooh please expand on the Italy bros relationship! Even in canon they have a bit of an odd relationship. Sometimes they actually act like brothers and other times they seem uncomfortable around the other.

ah, this is going to be a long one everyone.

the relationship of the two brothers is...much more complicated than what hima portrayed, so I hope I can explain myself the best I can. Let's start in order with a bit of history! (I'm not at home, so if the writing/formatting is a bit weird sorry in advance! I will get to the other asks as soon as I can use my pc)

So we all know that both Felice and Romano are Rome's grandkids and cherish him very much even after his passing. Although Rome wasn't an ideal grandfather, preferring Feli over Romano since he "inherited" his artistic tendencies. This point to understand their relationship is quite important, since it seems that Romano's inferiority complex starts from here at a very young age. He resents his little brother already, but that is only because he's still a kid and doesn't understand why he's treated differently.

Now, after the fall of Rome, Italy was divided and conquered by many nations. The two brothers, that already didn't have the best of relationships, get separated. And they don't meet or have a proper interaction up until the Unity of Italy, in the 19th century. This to make it clear, that for the most part of their lives, these two were separated and assimilated completely different customs and cultures. That is why when the Unity happened, it didn't make a "Greater Italy" rather a "Unified Italy".

And so the year 1861 comes, and the Reign of Italy comes into fruition. Nothing short of a mess. The South, still deeply rooted in agriculture and farming, is much much poorer and behind the rising North, whom, closer to other European nations by geographical position, is being affected by the industrial revolution. How do you (the government) intervene with this situation in hand? Harshly repressing any uprising coming from the people, of course.

There have been some instances where the government tried to help the South, but all the attempts can be described with a perfect adjective "Half assed". The Giolitti government (we are in the first years of the 20th century), whom tried to industrialize the South with modern infrastructure, called the southern part of Italy "nothing more than a place where to gather political consensus"

you understand where I'm coming from?

The resentment between the brothers is HIGH at this point of history. People are literally fleeing the crumbling south (and still today!) and Romano and Felice cannot for the life of them stand eachother. Felice thinks his brother is just a big burden, while Romano thinks Felice is an ungrateful bastard that walks all over him.

There's also the whole argument about the Unity of Italy and how it was more of an "occupation" from the North, but uhhh...I'm not really going to go in that place for now.

This to say, that back then they had a terrible relationship. After WW2 however, they are trying to rekindle their broken relationship, although still today there are a lot of prejudices between the north and the south.

Romano is very sour about this, and so is Felice. They are trying to move on past this, but it's hard. It's hard to not dislike eachother. They argue a lot nowadays, since they always seem on opposites sides for everything. But, deep down, I think they care for eachother, even if they don't show it.

This to say, Hima was wrong to make romano the only one that is "mean" to feli, because in actuality it is a dislike that goes both ways. Have you ever seen a Juventus-Naples football match? don't tell me these two don't get into physical fights after it.

Oh and Romano still has a massive inferiority complex in regards of his brother. Feli is the richer, modern, and successful one, while in the parliament he is the "black sheep" of his country. Its rare, but Feli sometimes comforts him for this, explaining to him that he is an important part of their country too.

Because, despite their differences, they're part of a bigger thing, Italy. They might argue A LOT but its undeniable the love they share for one another. Never forget that ♡♡

How about the classics? Usuk and Gerita?

Hi bestie! Thanks for send me this!

Gerita is the anthem of this fandom. You couldn't like it, but at least you should show them respect, because Hetalia is possible in any way, thanks to them. So yes, GerIta fan in here! I consider them one of the most nice, romantic and imaginable couple in all the story. They really deserved each other.

Ludwig is sensitive and protective and Feli maybe seems weak, but he has a strong personality to stand someone as Germany, with all his strict behaviours and insecurities. He gives comfort and in a way Feli is the whole world to Lud.

And...

Ok, this is the moment when maybe I'll lost some friendships )?. I don't like UsUk at all. The only way I can stand them is when they're in the father/son dinamics, or Atlantic bros #, like a family. I can enjoy some good art about them, of course; they're amazing artist who do them together. And the aesthetic in the Cardverse is very nice, but as a romantic couple whose only love have been always the other one, is kind of nonsense to me. I can understand the the affection and the historical reasons, maybe... but my OTP is EngPort, so as they have stronger historical reasons, you can do the math XD.

I'm not closed to some poly casual ships tho, but nothing permanent.

Besides, I don't like how most usuk fans picture Arthur, as a twink. I know this is part of the fetish stuff, but my own libido goes to zero. I prefer punk Arthur, a king, a moterf**** king who conquered the world once. I do enjoy bottomed-Arthur, but with his own pride.

Headcannons and Behind the Scenes -- Princess Linx!

Our favorite Felisian princess! Some headcannons, facts, and other behind-the-scenes goodies

* She's actually a canon character! She appeared in a free comic book day comic. Her name was spelled "Lynx" here, though, and she was.... Quite different:

Yeahhhh. She had good bones! And I figured she could be fun to play around with. She isn't so much a "warrior princess" as a princess who knows she has a good life, and wants to make other lives good as a result.

* Who's the baby? That's something for later, let's focus on the present yeah?

* Her voice was always Natasha Lyonne. The was no shuffling on that. It helped the rest of her personality come into play.

* Why the name change? I liked it better.

* She's s STEM gal at heart. Loves science, math, engineering. She doesn't get to play around with it much though because she's first in line for the throne. So she grew up being trained in politics, communication, and conflict resolution.

* Her culture is polyamorous! She grew up with eight mothers and her father. Her biological mother died in childbirth. Her favorite of her stepmoms is a nuclear physicist.

* All of her moms are brilliant in their own rights, from lawyers, to doctors, to educators.

* The birth rate on Felis is fairly low, so she doesn't have as many siblings as you'd expect

* Mimosas are an all the time food <3

* She's yellow-blue colorblind!

* Loves partying, clubs, and dancing

* All the same she can turn on the socialite charm. This duality is based on my, no lie, very real respect for Paris Hilton.

* She also fell for Rocket at first sight. She still loves him to this day, but understands he's happy. So she loves having him as a friend!

* How's he feel about her? Well... 👀

* Meti is basically one of her best friends now. After the initial envy, they see her as someone with impeccable taste. They have phone calls several times a week.

* I included her as another catlike alien because a lot of times you see ONE species of aliens meant to represent cats, ONE for sharks, etc.. She's meant to show that there's more than one way to draw a cat!

* Her dad loves her but worries for her. He's a LOT more chill after his heart attack.

* Does she ever find love for herself? Well. 👀

* She went on several dates with Peter, who introduced her to things like Waffle House and off-roading. He couldn't make the distance work and also she scared him a smidgen. They still consider one another close friends.

* Is she into girls? Not really. Would she kiss Mantis since she's also kissed Meti and Peter at this point? She wouldn't say *no*.

* She keeps a very, very messy room and ship.

* A bit bored at the current moment. Maybe there's a career change in the air in her future.

Parent Support Group AU

Time to move onto the kiddos.

You can find the info about the parents here. Also check the reblogs of the post too because I added some parents through that. 

Let’s start with ages

Peter: infant (no older than 1 but probably younger)

Kugel: Also an infant like Peter

Luxembourg (I don’t have a human name for him): 2

Ludwig: 3/4 

Erika (Liechtenstein): 4

Feliciano: 4

Alfred and Matt: 5

Emma (Belgium): 5

Kiku: 6

Romano: 6

I’m also adding Emil: 15/16 and he volunteers at the daycare portion of the meeting because he needs a certain amount of hours to graduate. 

Okay with that out of the way. Let’s get into what it’s like for these kids at the daycare. Basically whenever a new parent joins the group they introduce the kids to each other before heading to their meeting. 

Arthur is still fairly new to the group like Gilbert and Gilbert is wearing a t-shirt with a band Arthur likes so maybe he’s finally found a possible friend in this sea of parents who look at him like he’s a fuck up (they actually don’t, but he thinks he’s a fuck up so he thinks everyone else sees him like that). Anyway, Arthur tries to get the boys together but Alfred refuses to come away from the toys so it’s just Matthew and Ludwig who are introduced to each other at first. 

Arthur warns that Matthew is shy and doesn’t talk much and Gilbert assures him “it’s okay. Luddy here is the same.” 

And the little boys instantly connect. No words. Not even gestures. There is just this unspoken understanding that “Hey! You’re like me.” And they go off together. Ludwig plays with blocks while Matt plays with some plastic animals. Ludwig gets excited and shows Mattie his tower. Aww maybe Ludwig builds Matthew’s animals houses. 

Feliciano and Alfred probably also gravitate to each other because they are both bubbly and talkative. Though Feli ends up making friends with everyone to some extent. Feli is probably how Alfred got introduced to everyone.

Alfred and Kiku bond over Pokémon and become like best friends despite Kiku being wary of him at first. Kiku already has a massive collection and he brings it to show Alfred and Al is just floored. Al probably only knows the anime, so Kiku maybe gives Al a card to get him started. 

Like I said in another post I think things are actually tense between Feli and Ludwig at first because Feli doesn’t know how to approach Ludwig without making him uncomfortable. Thinking more about it, I’m thinking maybe the two of them finally make a break through one day when Matt has to stay home sick and Ludwig is devastated. Feliciano can tell he’s very upset and wanted to do something. He’s picked up on how Matthew and Ludwig play: not really together but they do an activity beside each other and occasionally come together to show what they are doing. So Feli suggests that he and Ludwig should make get well cards for Matthew and give them to Mr. Kirkland before he and Al leave. So Feli and Ludwig draw for most of their time together. Feli even teaches him how to draw some things. Drawing eventually becomes something they do together regularly. 

Erika for awhile was the only girl. She played with Feli and Kiku sometimes, but often times she stuck to Erzsébet’s side and helped her get snacks and stuff. Eventually a new parent comes in and brings along another little girl named Emma. Erika is shy and worries that she won’t make a good first impression. Luckily Erzse helps them break the ice. 

Lux is really young so it’s hard to play with the other kids sometimes. There is not much else I can say right now other than that he always follows his big sister around.

While everyone breaks off into friend groups, Roma is kind of left out. Everyone seems to get along, some of course hang out with others more, but no one ever seems to want to hang out with Roma. Emil sees this and keeps him company when he can. Roma thinks Emil is so cool because he’s a teenager and wants to hangout with him. 

But now I feel bad Roma doesn’t have kids around his age to hangout with...Hmm...I guess we could get Afonso and Antonio in here? WAIT NO! We can do Carlos (Cuba). Carlos and him bond. And then Roma gets to know Mattie because Carlos is also friends with Mattie. I don’t know who will be Carlos’s guardian but we’ll figure it out later 

Emil really doesn’t want to be there tbh. He’s a teen after all. But he needs volunteer hours for high school and since his uncles are the ones running it, it was an easy in. The kids like him though because he talks to them like their people (I don’t know if this makes sense, but you know how some adults talk to kids and like...talk down to them. Not on a purposefully malicious way, but like...they talk very differently to kids and it’s like they don’t understand what kids are capable of). But I think it would be cute if he warms up to the position and when he’s deciding on what he wants to do after high school he decides to be a teacher or work in child care in some way.

" --- LET ME TEAR THAT BITCH TO PIECES !!! "

monstrous snarls coming from the symbiote. ohhh. he wanted nothing more to grab Miguel and impale him with one of his tendrils to the wall. Make an example out of him , as he thought he could do to Fel so many FUCKING times.

he reeks of entitlement. reeks of power hungry. Carnage wants to put HIM in his place. remind him that at the end of everything , he is NOTHING without his ego. NOTHING compared to what Fel could be , on her own. Fel is ten times the person that rich brat could ever be. Writhing rat with no regard.

--- I WANNA MAKE HIM SUFFER. MAKE HIM BLEED AS HE TRIES TO CALL FOR HIS "EMPLOYEES." TAKE EVERYTHING FROM HIM. LET HIM SEE HOW SMALL HE REALLY IS !!!!

he wants to KILL. He wants to KILL Miguel O'hara. Wants him to feel every cut. Stab. Bite. Tear. he will make it slow. He will not be kind nor have mercy. Not a smidge of understanding from him. No matter how much he begs, because how often did Feli beg ? How much has she cried ? How much blood , sweat , and tears has she given for this POINTLESS society ? For HIM.

And the COWARDS that just STAND there and let her break. Worthless. All of them. He may not like that boyfriend of hers , but at least HOBIE BROWN was no COWARD. Did NOT turn his head nor offer comfort AFTER he stood there.

Carnage knew he was a tyrant. The symbiote did not walk around , being a JACKASS and acting like he was a good man. Unlike O'hara. Carnage knew he was fucked up.

Maybe he should show Miguel HOW fucked up he could be.

Summery: Dionysus warns percy, percy thinks he lost his chance until she has a talk with artemis

Chapter: 1/?

Words:6425

Angst, fluff, coming out, trans girl percy, Poseidon is a dick, Myrina (trans girl percy)

Author notes: this is my first fic so it isn't that well written but I hope you enjoy

"Child, I warn you, don't ask for what you want, it isn't time yet." Dionysus said, trying to sound as cryptic as possible.

"What do you mean?" I asked, not sure how to even respond to that.

Then he disappeared with a flash of lightning, without even leaving a note.

After an hour I finally got my answer

————————————————————————

Tyson walked back to the group, looking satisfied with his new materials for forging.

He immediately started comparing them with Grovers new sets of Panpipes, and Clarisse's helmet.

"Annabeth Chase, comeforth." Zeus' voice thundered, showing he was getting bored with us.

"Lord Zeus, I would like to receive a blessing of agility and speed, to help me fight faster in the next battles." Annabeth's voice was the clearest of all of us, not showing any fear; but it still made my chest burn. She asked for a blessing?, was that allowed?, but only a few gods seemed to acknowledge it.

Zeus spoke in an irritated tone, "You have worked hard, however we deemed that you cannot receive a blessing for a quest that isn't your own." As Zeus said that, Ares leaned forward with a smug smile.

"I understand. Lord Zeus, may I save the reward for another time then."Annabeth said with dissatisfaction in her voice. "You may."

As Annabeth walked back, Athena was the only one that looked satisfied, then Zeus called out.

"Perseus Jackson, come forth."

I walked to the centre of the hall, with every step my heart beat harder, what can I ask for?, should I get equipment?, I have riptide, but is that enough?, and what should I get?, Armour?, what type?

Until I remember Circes island

"What do you see?" C.C. asked, with a confused face, almost like she couldn't believe her own work.

"A girl, I see a girl, what does that mean?" I asked, heart beating but not in fear, or disgust but definitely something I didn't know.

"That means, my dear, that you are looking at your ideal self, your perfect you, and I can help you reach it."

I froze, I didn't know what to do, I could finally become who I wanted for so long.

"I'll give you time to think about it. What would make you truly happy, to be how you currently are, or to be the girl in that mirror. You can be beautiful, have long flowing hair, with a beaming smile?" C.C. reasoned, and it sounds right, not just her soothing voice but also her words. I could become who I want to be, the person I hid.

"Can you really make me look like her?, truly be her?" I asked, feeling a new tightness in my throat.

"I can, but it starts with you, to be her you need to start eating more fruits, a light exercise routine, and substitute this for a normal meal." She said as she walked behind a bar and filled a glass of water and added a drink mix powder.

"And you're sure there aren't any side effects?" I asked, skeptical despite her obvious acceptance. "Not one, this meal substitute will give you the perfect body." C.C. assured.

I drank, hesitant at first until I felt my body change, my body became hot, like my blood was boiling, then I started to get shorter; like I wanted, but I realised I kept on shrinking, and my body rapidly started growing hair, my teeth fely heavy in my mouth. I tried to shout at her but all that came out was "reeet, reeet, reeet"

"They you are, my dear, your true self. It's a shame, there was finally a man that understands the truth of the superiority of women, but you are still a man so it can't be changed."

My heart pounds, harder and harder every second, in pain, shock, fear, but most of all from the feeling of loss. The loss of something I was promised, of something I never had.

But I also feel relieved, I don't need to question if my friends would accept me, if they were still my friends.

————————————————————————

I know what I want, in front of these 12 gods, I will tell them that I want to change my body, I want to be a girl. 

"Perseus Jackson, what is the reward you would like -" Zeus started, "FOR THE QUEST YOU TRIED TO STEAL FROM MY DAUGHTER" Ares shouted over his father.

"SHE COULDN'T OF SUCCEEDED WITH OUT MY SON, YOU SHOULD BE THANKING HIM AND ANNABETH CHASE FOR NOT TAKING ALL THE CREDIT THAT THEY DESERVE." My father argued, which led to each god voicing their opinions.

"QUITE, EACH OF YOU" Zeus thundered, as the master bolt slammed against the floor. "I would like-" my voice became tight.

"Could I please... if it isn't any trouble, I'm sure you can but ..." I was already anxious, but thinking of Circe's island made it worse.

"Percy, it's fine, just tell us what you want." Poseidon said, trying to calm my nerves, but it didn't help.

Dionysus' warning rang in my ears, "don't ask for what you want." Was he talking about now, he had to be.

 "Could I please . . . also save the reward for later,." It's heart braking, but still it feels like it's the right thing, for some reason Dionysus warned me, and I'm not dumb enough to take a warning from the god of insanity lightly.

 What made it worse was that the only one that looked satisfied was Athena, but what is strange is that Artemis, and Aphrodite both sat back, like they're disappointed.

"Seems not all of Poseidon's children have a sea sponge where their brain should be." Athena said, which didn't make me feel any better. "Good choice, Perseus Jackson."

"Uh, thank you, Lady Athena." And with that I headed back to the group, with disappointed looks from three gods, and questioning looks from two demigods, and a satyr.

"Young demigods, Cyclops, and satyr, you have all proven worthy to receive gifts, make sure you do not waste them, or you may deeply regret your choice." Zeus warned.

With a crack of thunder, and a blinding light we were all back at camp.

For awhile I questioned why Dionysus warned me, why he didn't want me ask for what I want.

Sadly I got my answer a few months later

————————————————————————

"My Lady, thank you for letting me speak to you in private." I said, nervous of the next words that will come out of my mouth.

"I need no thanks." Artemis said smoothly. "What is it that you would like to speak of?"

"After the last quest I was on, Dionysus warned me to not ask for what I wanted, I wanted to know if you knew why he warned me?" I said, my heart racing, knowing what she would ask and what my answer had to be.

"I can only tell you if I know what you want." She said with a slight smile. "Can you tell me what your request would have been?"

My throat is tight and my voice is shaky, I haven't told anyone this yet, not my Mom, or Annabeth, or Grover, "My Lady, I wish to be a girl, I have wanted to be one for as long as I remember, I thought I could become one with the reward but Dionysus told me not to." I said with a breaking voice

My tears stream down my face, the words are choked out of my mouth, I place my head down in shame. "Lady Artemis, I need to know if I wasted my chance." 

Artemis walked towards me, placed her hands on my face and made me look her in the eyes before she said, "You have wasted nothing, you are a maiden that has survived much greater threats that a child your age should, both mortal and immortal."

"Thank you, my lady." I said, practically a whisper.

"I don't need thanks for speaking the truth, as my own personal reward for your bravery I will tell you why you were warned, as well as giving you my protection." As she said that a small crescent moon appeared on my arm, it shined with silvery light, bright against my skin.

————————————————————————

After a few minutes she told me everything about Dionysus' warning.

"Is there any more you would like to ask?" She said with an even voice.

"There is one final thing I would like to ask." I said as I wipe away the tears that fell from our conversation.

I know it's a long shot but I still have to ask, just incase the fates decide to do me a favour this one time. "Can you turn me into a girl?" 

"I can, but" Not the best way to start. "the only way for me to grant that wish right now is for you to be a hunter. If you are willing then take the vow and I will accept it."

I have another chance, but I don't know if I can take it... I run my hand through my hair to my neck, I know I want love, but can I lose this, I might never get this chance again. But is it worth the love I might lose, or are the powers I would gain worth not seeing the people at camp, or my mom.

"I'm sorry... I want to try to find love, I can't lose that, I don't... I don't want to lose that either." I try to wipe the tears, but they don't stop. Gods, I'm a fool.

"I understand, many people have denied me before because of love, but without you being part of the hunt I can't grant your wish. If you ever change your mind I will gladly accept you."

"I understand, Thank you my Lady." As I get up to leave, wiping the tears from my eyes, she says one last thing to me, "I swear on the styx that I won't let any of the other gods hurt you for this." As she said that thunder rolled over the mountains.

"And if you need help -no matter the reason- just call and I will be there. You aren't a hunter, but you are a maiden, and maidens will always receive my help."

I hold a thankful smile, "Thank you."

She smiled back, "As I have said, there is no need. I will see you tomorrow so please rest well."

I did, and after a few weeks I would learn if she would keep that promise

————————————————————————

I watched as Thalia accepted being Artemis' new lieutenant, there was a silver light that surrounded her, until she seemed to absorb it.

When she made her way back Zeus called "ANNABETH CHASE"

"Last time you were here you asked for a blessing, at the time we said no if it wasn't your quest, however for your bravery and strength we will allow you to receive a blessing if you wish." Zeus explained while multiple gods gave Ares looks of hatred.

"Thank you Lord Zeus, I would like a blessing of speed and agility to help me fight." Annabeth said with confidence that rivaled Apollo.

"Is that all?" Zeus gave her a look as if she grew an extra heads.

"If I can ask for more, and it isn't too much to ask, I would like a blessing of strength as well." I questioned how her voice never wavered.

"If that is all you ask, Athena will provide the blessing, as you are synchronised with her power most." Athena stood up, raised her hands, and annabeth started to glow with a grey light that seemed to seep into her, her eyes also changed to glow a brighter grey before they faded back to normal.

"Prove the worth of that blessing, for no blessing is minor, especially when used with wisdom." Athena intoned as she returned to her throne.

"Yes, Lady Athena, thank you" Annabeth said before returning to the group.

"PERSEUS JACKSON"

 "You have done us a favour again, Son of Poseidon." Despite his complementary words, it was said with a tone cold enough to freeze the entire ocean, as I tried to calm myself to avoid fumbling what I would say next, he said "You may ask for what you wish."

Artemis gave me a reassuring look, I took a deep breath, looked down seeing the crescent moon, and said with as much confidence as the rodent I once was "I wish to be a girl." My heart felt like it was sprinting a marathon, but Artemis only showed a smile.

The words jumped from my mouth, it felt like they wrapped around my chest and started to squeeze, wrapping me in a cocoon of anxiety.

"You... what?" Zeus asked, his voice hoarse from shock, when I looked him in the eyes he had a face like I told him a riddle, so did other gods, a few were smiling, mainly Artemis, and some had an even face, and one had a face of unblinking focus, Aphrodite, but only one had a face of hidden disgust. My father.

"I have always ... I asked Artemis but ... I would've asked but Dionysus ... " I didn't know what to say, what to do, tears streaked down my face, I know I'm protected by Artemis, she said she would help, and I know that I want this, that I worked hard for this, so why am I crying.

Zeus raised his hand, I immediately stopped, when he lowered his hand he only asked one question.

"Is this what you want? You are certain about your wish?" His once cold tone, now warm and understanding, it left the world quite, Olympus made no noise, all I heard was the blood rushing through my ears.

"Yes" it came out as a sigh but that was answer enough.

Poseidon stood up, "Percy, what are you talking about?, why are you saying these things?, You never -"

Artemis interrupted him as she stood, "She did, Lord Poseidon" a wave of warmth passed through me when she used my pronouns. "She came to me before I was kidnapped, she asked if I could explain Dionysus' warning and that led to her asking if I could grant her wish, I couldn't without asking for Zeus' permission, so I asked her to join the hunt, however she declined."

The tears streamed down my face, I wiped my face so many times that my face felt raw. Poseidon changed to human size and started moving towards me, but Thalia and Annabeth were suddenly at my side, looking at me with understanding in their eyes as they both wrapped their arms around me.

Thailia let go and stood between me and my father.

"I didn't know they started letting boys into-"

"They didn't, Lord Poseidon." Thalia was standing infront of my father.

"It Is wise not to interrupt me, Thalia Grace" Poseidon said with a voice more violent then Ares could ever be.

"Dad ... don't." Is all I could say between sobs.

"Fine, but I didn't know Artemis let boys into the hunt" he said while looking her in the eyes.

"It has happened before, I have also let people like your daughter join, like Siproites, yet you had no problem then." She said, her tone becoming more impatient and irritated.

"WELL SIPROITES WASN'T MY -" His voice was basically a growl

Artemis moved towards him, each step a threat to my father, "Your daughter has been deemed a maiden in need, and I help maidens in need, I can change the hunters vow and it's gifts to help her in anyway and you can't interfere with my sphere of influence without repercussions, Poseidon." She made her last comment in a tone that showed it was a threat.

Poseidon tried to reply, but Zeus warned "POSEIDON, if you value your throne, use it." His tone was cold as he regarded my father, "Both of you be seated" Zeus warned, only when everyone was silent did he continue, "As king of the gods, it is my choice to accept or deny rewards, and it is my choice that the wish will be granted." My jaw hit the floor, my wish was being granted. Poseidon looked more ready to start a war then Ares, while Artemis and Aphrodite -for who knows why- where beaming with pride and joy.

"Thank you, I... thank you."

"We need no thanks" Hera quickly said, "it is a minor gift to us, you will see that we have granted this before, with almost no issue," She stared daggers at Poseidon, "and we will grant this wish again. As you asked us all, I will take it upon myself to help yo-"

"No you won't, you know it's my turn." Aphrodite finally spoke up with a mischievous look in her eyes. Annabeth immediately took a step forward protectively. Even though she didn't join the hunters, the didn't mean she loved Aphrodite.

After a few seconds of silent battles between Aphrodite and Hera, "If you insist, my schedule is busy enough as it is." As she said that she disappeared in a cloud of peacock feathers.

With that most of the gods left, leaving only Aphrodite, Artemis, Zeus, and ... Poseidon 

Aphrodite gave us a smile, "Well, let's go get you some clothes before we do this", She snapped her fingers, and I found myself, Annabeth and Thalia in what I could only guess was a clothes store filled with modern clothes, Aphrodite appeared, smiling more than when Tyson met rainbow.

"Uh- where- are" I stumbled over my words, coming down from the shock of coming out, to all the olympian gods, and having the idea to have them turn me into a girl. Genius idea. I had no idea I was this smart.

Aphrodite gave me a kind smile, "Bit nervous?, don't worry, I decided to take care of you, I'm the goddess of beauty, so I decided to help you with fashion before we change you. I'll let you talk to your friends while I find you some clothes, I have a few ideas that would be cute." I turned bright red as she walked away and disappeared between racks of clothes, then Annabeth and Thalia faced me.

"So ... how you doing?", Thalia said trying her best to not be as awkward as me, she failed.

"Doing... Good, I think" I tried to not think about how strong my heart beat was only moments ago.

"So, how long have you known?" Thailia asked nervously.

"I- kind of um always knew, I just haven't had the words or courage to say it" I answered honestly, as I started picking at my clothes.

"Why?, you're the bravest person I know." Annabeth said genuinely, eyes studying me but still kind. She stared to make her way to some chairs and sat down, as I followed her my legs finally stopped working, luckily Thalia caught me.

"What happened to the strength to lift the sky?" Thalia joked as she helped me to the seats before she took her own.

"Thanks," I said before I answered Annabeth, I took a deep breath to calm myself before I replied, "You remember gabe, and uh ... the stuff he did ... to me and my mom?" They both nodded slowly. I had told them about the horrible things he did before my mom went into her 'temporary art career'. "Well, he Uh... watched TV a lot and ... sometimes people like me would be there, and cause he was a great guy, he said some ... horrible things, so there wasn't anything safe that I could... do, so I ... hid it." I fought back the urge to cry, I teared up but luckily I didn't start crying, it was bad enough with my voice being so shaky.

"Oh gods, I'm so sorry." Annabeth leaned in for a hug, I was happy to finally feel accepted, however Thalia just sat there in silent rage, when she realised that I saw she steadied herself, Gabe should feel glad to be a statue, I don't wanna think of what would happen otherwise.

"Sorry, not big on hugs" Thalia said, obviously trying to keep her voice even.

"Then how come you didn't tell your mom, or teachers?" Annabeth asked

"Well the walls were thin in our apartment so I couldn't really say it there, and I didn't want another problem for mom, so I decided to try and hide it, but for school, Yancy Academy was many things, but accepting wasn't one."

"Fair point" Annabeth replied with a glum tone.

"So when did you decide to tell people?" Thailia said with a concentrated look in her eyes.

"It was some time during the sea of monsters, Circe showed me a mirror that showed me my perfect me, and um ... soon after that Dionysus said to not ask for what I wanted, so I didn't, and it shattered me, I felt like I wasted my chance," I was tearing up remembering what that felt like," later I spoke with Artemis and she gave me the confidence that I needed."

"So that's how you got the mark on your arm?" Thailia said pointing to the blessing that Artemis gave me. Annabeth looked at the mark, not in disgust but definitely concentrated on it.

"Yeah, she gave me a blessing of her protection, and um... claimed me as a maiden in need, since she couldn't do more at the time, so if I need help then she will come."I immediately turned red, calling myself a maiden in need, being a maiden was nice but being in need felt wrong, the last time I was 'in need' was with gabe. It sounds like I'm waiting to be rescued by a hero, and I know that I can save myself if needed.

"Maiden in need?, cute. Lady Jackson." She and Annabeth started smiling when they saw me turn red. "Poseidon owns a kingdom so you're already royalty.", Thalia snickered as she said "Dam, how many chariots do you have?"

Thalia and Annabeth kept bouncing jokes back to each other. Every time I turned red or fumbled my words Thalia laughed harder, until she was howling, "As long as I don't need to kiss a frog." I mumbled, and with that they were both wheezing, with Thalia on the floor, Annabeth folded in half. Thalia laughed harder every time she tried to get her composure back. "Bark for breath, you ok?" I asked with a smile spreading across Annabeth's and my face.

She finally got control of her laughter, still chuckling to herself as she sat back down, "Gods, fish sticks, you're hilarious."

I rolled my eyes, but Annabeth looked serious again, "Have you thought of any new names for yourself?"

like the genius I am, I never thought of a name. What would I name myself - and what would I tell everyone else? The campers? My school? Mom?, wait, name first, this is possible, right?

I thought about it and decided I would copy my mother, "How many women in ancient Greece had good lives?"

They exchanged looks before looking deep in thought, not a good sign. I didn't know much about myths, but I knew that most heroes didn't have good lives, and that even less women tended to have good lives.

"Um,  there are some, but most don't. Like Atlanta, she was strong, great hunter, she was with some of the strongest hero's, like Heracles and Jason. It would fit you well and she also had a connection to Artemis." She shrugged and went back into thought.

"How about strength?" Thalia reasoned, "Like Myrina, brave, strong, good leader, similar to you." I blushed being thought to have such great qualities.

"I don't mind being named after someone strong, what did she do?"

"She was a queen of the Amazon's, she lead an army against the Atlantians, she won against others as well, like a group called the gorgons ..."

"... like medusa?"

"No, they were more similar to the Amazon's, just the same name." Annabeth jumped in.

"She did more than that." Aphrodite interrupted, and we all turned in surprise to see her.

 "Aphrodite, what do you mean?" Annabeth asked in suprise, probably not sure what to say, just like me and Thalia.

"While she did conquer places and won wars, she also made peace with the Egyptians, with the ruler at the time."

"Who was the ruler at the time?" Annabeth seemed amazed and intrigued.

"... Doesn't matter, the point is that she was smart enough to find peace."

"Why haven't we heard much about her?" Annabeth seemed mystified but a bit annoyed, and I couldn't blame her.

Aphrodite rolled her eyes, "Sadly many women in history have been forgot about or lied about by historians, especially by the people like Ovid," She spat his name out like it was acid, "Some guy he was, anyways, Myrina was strong, brave, and knew to make peace. She was also similar to Perseus by defeating a sea monster to save a princess."

"That's... amazing, I don't think I'm worthy of a name like that." I can't even imagine being like that.

"Nonsense, but if you are looking for name suggestions, I would suggest Andromeda, links to Perseus, beautiful, and lived an okay life."

Thalia shook her head, "No offense, but i don't think it fits her, some people have described you as attractive -their words not mine," as Thalia said that Annabeth turned bright red and looked away, "but you went up against me, I don't think you need to be rescued."

"Sure, you are strong, don't get me wrong, but is that all you want to be known for, you could give Andromeda a different meaning, one of strength and beauty?" Aphrodite asked almost solemnly.

"I have to think about it, but I'm not sure yet, maybe Andromeda as a middle name to show homage to what my mom called me."

"Okay, just let me know soon, and I need to know if you want to wear a jeans or a skirt?"

It took my brain a few moments to realise she was talking, and looking, to me, "Jeans, it's cold outside and I want to take it slow for now, I'm going to wait a few days or weeks first before I wear a skirt."

Aphrodite stifled a smile, "You could wear tights, but jeans will work. I have a few tops that would look cute. Do you know the different washes of denim?"

"Grey, stone, light, dark, black, white, acid, medium, and coloured." I answered fast enough to catch Thalia and Annabeth off guard, while Aphrodite only smiled.

"Gods, I didn't know you actually had a working memory." Thalia cracked a smile.

"I knew you looked after your appearance more than most, but i didn't  expect ... " Annabeth's mouth hung open, "That."

Aphrodite beamed with excitement, "You have to start spending time with my kids, they will love you, trust me, promise to spend time with them, they will adore you!, so what wash of denim do you like?"

"Normally grey or stone, they go well with many different colours of tops and shoes, and since I mostly wear sneakers I think stone would work best." I smiled confidently as Annabeth and Thalia stared at me dumbfounded, while Aphrodite was lighting up the room with a smile before she disappeared into the racks of clothes again.

"First a working memory, and now being able to think, you are full of surprises." Thalia said with a growing smile. "Tell me if you want to get into punk style clothes as well." She said, still smiling.

"Totally, I'm going to be experimenting with loads of different styles so if you have any hand me downs I will happily take it." I said blushing a bit as they both looked at me.

"Hand me downs?, you think I'm letting the princess of porpoises have hand me downs?" Thalia said as her smile grew, "First of all, I don't want to get smote by Aphrodite, second of all you deserve more than just hand me downs, I plan on being there for your first clothes shopping, especially if it's my expertise."

"Th-Thanks, I honestly don't know what to say."

"Gods, you are such a girl." Annabeth sighed, I blushed for the 700th time today while being both embarrassed and happy.

"Yeah, I um guess... Thanks, but back to names." I played with my shirt, still trying to be normal -or as normal as I can be.

I thought about it, These were some of the strongest women in ancient greece.

Atlanta, she was skilled and connected to Artemis, Myrina, She was strong, smart and a good leader, and Andromeda, Beautiful and a connection to what my mom called me.

It was a lot to think about, but I made a decision.

"I like all the names, but I like... Myrina the most, I'm going to use one of the others as a middle name, but I really love the name Myrina." I felt nervous when I said that, like I was introducing someone else and myself at the same time.

"Myrina." Thalia said in thought, "Myrina. It suits you, I'm glad I can speak to you with your name."

As she said it, my doubts faded, it felt warm, like the first time I had ambrosia.

"So how does it feel to have a name that fits?" Annabeth asked with a gleam in her eye.

"It feels... right, I don't know how to describe it, just warm."

"I'm glad, and let us know if anyone tries messing with you, we'll teach them some manners." As she said that, her eyes gleamed like when she killed a monster, and Thalia had lightning flicker between her fingers, I feel sorry for anyone that says anything hurtful, actually I don't.

"Thanks, both of you." I smiled as I thought of my name, not the act I have to play, but my real name.

Aphrodite came back, looking excited, she was in her sphere of influence, and I was excited as well but still nervous.

"Here's the clothes!" She said in an exited tone as she placed the stone washed jeans, a plain white T-shirt, a slightly larger cream sweater, and a pair of red vans, "Time for the part you waited for, your transformation!"

"Shouldn't I change first?" I asked hesitantly.

"No, I need to measure you, then resize the clothes to fit you, so if you get dressed it won't fit properly, you also need underwear, and by the looks on your friends faces," As she said that I realised that they both haven't stopped grinning for most of our conversation. "they are just as excited to see what you look like as I am."

"Okay then, I'm ready when you are."

"Like most things worth doing, this could be painful." As she snapped her fingers, I felt strange. First I was hot, like my blood was boiling. I felt lightheaded, fighting to stay awake from both pain and fainting. I fought against the pain, to scream out, but it was hard—almost impossibly hard. It felt like every joint was popping; like I was over extending them until they cracked. After a few moments it faded; my body cooled and joints relaxed; the light-headedness faded; and I felt like myself but also different, with how much I flinched from the pain, I nearly fell off the chair.

"I really out did myself this time." Aphrodite said cheerfully.

I groaned softly as I tried to deal with everything that just happened.

The first thing I noticed was my voice, it was higher and softer, even that little groan sounded more feminine, I'll admit that I didn't have a gruff or deep voice before bit still I definitely sounded like a girl now.

The second is that I was shorter, only a few inches but it was strange that everything was slightly taller and seemed more out off reach.

The third, my clothes just didn't fit, my T-shirt was baggy, my shoes were obviously oversized, and when I tried to readjust myself, my pants slipped, I caught it but still.

Forth, my hair was longer, normally it was wild but still didn't touch much of my neck or forehead, now I felt it roll over my shoulders, I felt how much weight was suddenly added, not much but still noticeable.

"You were short before but dam." Thalia said in shock, and I laughed, it sounded completely different, and more real then before.

Then I noticed everything about me, my frame was smaller, before I wasn't bumping into doors(too often) but I was definitely smaller.

My hands were smaller as well, they seemed delicate or dainty, and my arms both seemed shorter and less muscular, they were still defined but definitely lost mass, and the mark was still there.

"If you would be so kind, Miss Jackson needs her measurements taken, so Annabeth and Thalia please give us some privacy, I am sure she will appreciate it as much as the compliments." Aphrodite said cheerfully, still pleased with herself.

Annabeth and Thalia left, leaving behind encouraging words and smiles as they went to find a room, leaving me alone with Aphrodite.

"Myrina -love the name, by the way- it's time to take measurements and that means you need to strip, I don't want this to be long, so no complaints."

I nodded while trying not to blush. I failed. I stood up while holding up my pants, I took a deep breath, and dropped them. I hesitantly grabbed the hem of my shirt and froze.

I never liked looking at my body before and thought that seeing a body I like for the first time should be more private.

"Myrina, I know it's a lot but we have to get this done, just one minute is all I need." She spoke in an assuring voice

"Yeah... okay." I lifted my shirt and tried to not look down at the body I wasn't ready to see. I dropped it to the floor and took a step out of the pants.

"Okay, I'm just going to take a few measurements and then it's done." Aphrodite's voice was calming, I felt the tape measure wrap around my body in several places, around and under my breasts, hips, butt, and shoulders. She then measured the length of my arms and legs.

When it was done, my eyes opened as she snapped her fingers and she handed me my clothes.

"Put these on and I'll meet you with the other girls."

As she left, I sat down to change; still feeling jumpy after everything. She gave me some simple black underwear and bra, the stone washed jeans, a plain white T-shirt, a cream sweater, and red vans. A pretty outfit. Everything fit perfectly, and only the panties and bra took getting used to; as well as feeling slightly embarrassing.

As I pulled my hair from under my clothes I felt that same warmness I felt many times during the day; something that feels so much better than any amount of ambrosia.

After everything felt comfortable, I breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm ready!"

I watched as Aphrodite came back and gradually smiled as she saw how I looked.

"You look amazing, honestly you made it easy with how pretty you are." Aphrodite said sincerely.

"Th-Thanks, you really helped, but where are Annabeth and Thalia?" I was feeling nervous after being separate from them for so long on a hard day.

"I still haven't finished helping you, so I asked them to wait outside until we're ready, I can call them in if you want." She said with some pain in her voice.

"No, if it's okay with you I want to look my best before seeing them." I started to feel excited, I want to show them my best after they helped me so much.

"Of course it's okay, there's only one last step, your hairstyle, have you thought of anything yet?, It's kind of long, but if you know anything cute I can do it for you."

I looked in a mirror, and realised just how long it was, it reached close to my hips, I thought about it and it was too long to really be convenient everyday.

"How about this... shorten it to above half my torso, and then make it into a shag with bangs, the layers and volume will help frame the face, what do you think?" As she smiled I knew that I made the right decision, she snapped her fingers and a few inches of hair disappeared as I felt my hair change position.

"Honestly, I don't get why Athena thinks you dumb, you are a genius, I can't forgive you for hiding such talent." She smiled and I felt warm.

Even with all the compliments, a thought never left my mind, all the help I have got today from friends and gods, but I haven't even told my mom yet; I have to change that soon.

"Thanks, Aphrodite." I smiled getting used to how much my voice changed.

"You ready to show them?" She asked

I nodded, my heart raced with excitement as I saw them come back.

As they saw me they froze.

"Wow! You look amazing! Can't believe how well it suits you, Myrina. Good work, Aphrodite." She seemed hesitant about the goddess, but happy to see how I looked.

"It was no work at all, she's so pretty that she didn't even really need my help after the transformation." Aphrodite said like she was bragging.

Annabeth walked towards me with a smile and hugged me for a few seconds. I was so much shorter that I wasn't fully over her shoulder. "She's right." she whispered in my ear as she pulled away.

"Thanks, all of you. I don't know what I would've done without all of you help." I wiped away the happy tears, not being able to stop smiling.

"We just have one stop before I take you home. Artemis will want to see you, so I promised to bring you to Olympus, but barnacle beard might be there; will you be okay?" She asked, clearly worried for me. And to be honest, I don't know if I'll be okay, but I want to try to be.

"If I have all of you, then I know I will be." She snapped her fingers and we were back on Olympus.

bashing my head against a wall. i could fix binding blade's story. i could. and i am going to ramble about it and you can't stop me.

so long. this is so long.

Feli special usual features:

- tangents

- no apparent structure

- probably many typos

- getting emotional over the 2 moments i will actually deign to call well written

- i might as well just write fanfic at this point

- if you're me you understand

- actually dont even look at this. dont look at me.

first off one thing i actually really like about it compared to other FE games. everything, every location or name that ever gets mentioned, also shows up. every country can be visited and has more than one representative in the cast. additionally, you always know who to recruit people with if you paid attention to dialogue.

playing blazing blade rn and the augury really clutches it for that game. but in binding blade? the only characters i had to look up how to recruit were karel and gonzales. that's it. somebody's trapped or also fighting your enemy? talkto them with roy. anybody else? oh look, it's the brother clarine mentioned! that's the girl noah was hanging out with! that's sue's grandpa! character relations are clear and evident right from the introduction.

in short, the story is incredibly cohesive.

...doesn't stop it from being narratively weak though.

i've seen suggestions for changing who the main character is, and yeah, that works. the first suggestion is always lilina, which would work incredibly well. she fits more typically into the mold of FE lords, and hector's death gives her a more concise motivation for revenge against bern and zephiel. another suggestion i've seen is Fae, since she's the focus of the dragon conflict, and binding blade 100% undervalues her narrative potential (see: my complaint that she doesn't even get unique battle quotes against jahn)

(side note: for how cohesive the story is, jahn kinda spawns out of nowhere. like, he's the only guy not mentioned beforehand somewhere. wack.)

but the story could work with roy, i think.

so there's this part with roy and guinivere, when roy gets the binding blade. he asks if anyone could've pulled it, and she says yes. anyone could've pulled it with the fire emblem, but what matters now is that it's roy specifically who does so.

roy doesn't have anything to do with the conflict at large. he doesn't. the scouring? well, lilina's the descendant of one of the eight heroes. etruria and bern? elffin is actually the prince who faked his death, and he's the one percival and douglas care about. dragons? well, fae's the last divine dragon besides idunn.

but i think if you just like. made that the point. like echoes, except instead of undercutting your everyman protag by having him be a secret prince, he just stays.. some guy.

some guy who was in the wrong place at the right time, and it all just kinda spitballs until he's leading the etrurian army. ike is a protag who does this well, i think. it's just a job for him. and once he's done and paid, he leaves to do the next thing.

it's like. roy is kinda bland. but he doesn't have to be. this is ABSOLUTELY me honing in on minor character details because dissecting bland protags is a personal hobby of mine, but, dude was studying to be a bureaucrat. land management and shit. he's brains over brawn (if his stats didn't already show that). fucking string bean of a unit.

he is ardently chill about everything in the plot, but what if instead it like.. started to actually weigh on him. he struggles to live up to all the expectations suddenly on him, when all his life he just expected to be head of the second most important house of a minor nation. now there's un-dead princes and vengeful kings and dragons running about- and he has to unravel all these things as quick as he can to keep himself and his home safe.

what if he figured out that elffin is etruria's prince and had to weigh telling the three generals to gain their support, or potentially feeding an ally to the wolves? what kind of decision is dismantling the government of the nation you're supposed to be helping?

he just Does The Right Thing, Unquestionably, and that's it.

as for the dragons, introduce jahn earlier, by god. or, find some other way to exposition dump everything about idunn. hell, maybe fae has heard of idunn before, of a divine dragon who didn't make it to arcadia, and roy slowly reveils the horrifying truth of the demon dragon with what snippets he hears from bern's soldiers. maybe have an earlier fight with idunn actually staying on the field as a mysterious figure. anything. i bet you could just cut out jahn altogether if you did that.

like, make roy and everyman and commit to the bit. he wasn't born to step into hartmut's legacy. he just wanted to save his dad from a random attack. but he chose to do it anyway.

and one moment i do really like. from the atrocious exposition dumb of ch24. is when jahn says the binding blade conforms to its user's will, and that's how hartmut spared idunn, i could feel it just click for roy. in that moment, he knew how to save idunn. and he knew he would save idunn long before that.

play into the theme of legacies. hartmut's legacy is, on the surface, of the man who killed the demon dragon. a legacy of violence that roy finds himself in. but, beneath that, it was a legacy of kindness. of only as much blood as need be, and not a drop more.

put this against zephiel. he's like. i dont know how to phrase this. but the opposite of what the previous paragraph is. zephiel has a gigantic legacy as crown prince of an empire, but it's one that's denied to him out of petty jealousy by his father. i think his motivation is actually pretty compelling; he's lost faith in humanity. so he claims his birthright through murder, and uses it to end all legacies to ever exist. whereas the legacy roy obtains is kindness cloaked in violence, zephiel's is violence cloaked in kindness. by trying to end all conflict, he will only create an empty world. he doesnt really care about the dragons, either; it's idunn's soulless war dragons that are his ideal, not fellow creatures of ego like jahn.

and guinivere. god. the potential. zephiel has become to her what his father has become to him. it's again, legacy. zephiel's father broke his faith in humanity, and he has broken guinivere's. she is an ardent pacifist until the end.

....until she gives roy the tool he needs to kill her brother, that is. she first steals the fire emblem in the hope it will force a peaceful resolution. and she gives up. not in humanity. just in her brother.

GOD. THE TRAGEDY OF IT ALL?? in my head it could be so good. it's again just all cycles of violence and kindness. she's trying so so hard to break violence with kindness but it doesn't work. but she chooses to see the good in humanity despite it all. she really embodies that philosophy that roy brings up in his speech against zephiel. it may be humans who do wrong, but it's humans who stop them. we're all just going to keep making the same mistakes over and over, but we're always going to try to do better, and that's what matters. history isn't moving upward. just forwards. but we're trying. hartmut tried, and he didn't quite succeed; just prolonged it. but hartmut was just some guy who tried to save idunn, and that vain attempt was what allowed her to be saved for real.

(clears throat)

OTHER CHARACTERS!

so. since this hypothetical binding blade remake would cater to me specifically.

first of all, replace merlinus with lilina. binding blade's story with her is really hampered by the fact that lilina is killable.

only unkillable characters (i.e roy), characters who 'retreat' instead of dying (elffin, merlinus) or NPCs (Guinivere) are allowed to have narrative importance for more than their intro chapter and relevant gaidens. this blows.

make lilina the deuteragonist. there's already a clear trajectory for her; she calls herself a warrior, she says she must stay strong in the face of adversity, she cannot allow herself to cry now, but still she fiercely believes in the good of others. she's an incredibly good judge of character, and chooses to bet her life on kindness, as seen in how she can recruit both gonzales and garret.

she's, as brought up occasionally already, a much more archetypical FE lord, with a weighty legacy and a dead dad. it would be fun if she just bottles everything up and it crushes her. maybe she has her dad's temper and is trying to be a Proper Marquess in conduct. she n roy can find solidarity in fellow imposter syndrome. they'd both believe they're not good enough, think the other is so much better, only to end up as each other's biggest supporter.

and. listen. the lilina ogier support haunts me. and it gives a terrifying opportunity. like choosing your legacy and not being bound by blood but by shared conviction?

hey. what if lilina was adopted.

i dont know where exactly i'd put a reveal like this. second half of the game, surely. how would she find out? who knows. i don't. i'm just rambling about random points of potential. maybe she encounters someone in the enemy army who fought hector; murdock, maybe? and then it's pointed out how odd it is for hector to have a daughter when he died a bachelor. reverse alm.

and then she'd remember something incredibly distant, long buried as unimportant; of being young and alone and abandoned and seeing a city for the first time.

it would be crushhhingggg for her, since she relied so much on "blood of a warrior" as a crutch. BUT THEN! thematic coherence. it doesn't matter whether she's of his blood or not; there's no doubt in anyone's mind that she's hector's daughter, through and through. and she chooses to keep that legacy, to believe herself worthy of it. she didn't get so far by being roland's descendant; she did it on her own strength, her own smarts, her own merits. hector could've picked anyone off the streets, but it happened to be her, and that's what matters. the paths life offers are infinite, but we are here, and these are our choices.

and that's what i'd do for lilina! yay!

if it wasn't difficult to figure out logistically considering theme-ing and pulling an alm again i would also ABSOLUTELY make ninian!roy canon since blazing blade pushes elinini anyway. yeah i talked about the unimportance of blood but also. manakete roy is REALLY fucking funny.

"dragons still exist?" listen to me boy you are for real a dragon asking this.

also fun recontextual reading of his desire to learn all he can about dragons to learn more about himself since he would've thought his mother was the last dragon in elibe, which would've given it a more tragic slant. and additionally his very existence would be proof that dragons and humans can live in peace, which feels poignant. imo you could still push the everyman angle since ice dragons are largely irrelevant to anything happening with the demon dragon, and all the shenanigans nergal pulled had no effect on binding blade's plot outside of worsening zephiel's already bad relationship with his dad.

it's also just so so so funny to me. on god. it really is.

also allows for solidarity moments i.e sophia as part-dragon people. and also a reason for him to be invested in the dragon plot. and maybe a motivation for him to want to save idunn too. and the sheer irony of wielding a dragon-slaying weapon.

feli is this hypocrisy. maybe a little bit. But Also you can still push thematically. It Just So Happened that roy pulled the binding blade. there are dragons already living in harmony with humans. sophia may well have been the one to lead instead. she just happened not to be.

it also extends the just some guy-ness to eliwood i guess. he kind of is. to me. a gentleman, maybe. a righteous guy. but not the most important guy ever.

anyway! yeah! this was my word vomit about binding blade!

don't let me know what you think! i don't want to hear it because i am doing this to exorcise thoughts from my brain! thank you for not reading! bye!

What’s on the menu? For cats, just about everything.

Saturday December 9th, 2023

Over the last two decades, the Auburn University ecologist has amassed a tally of all the different creatures domesticated cats have been documented eating. The number has passed 2,000 species and shows no signs of slowing.

“It sure seems there’s not a lot that a cat would pass up,” says Lepczyk.

Despite all the cute cat videos, it’s been long known Felis catus is a fierce killer, particularly when it comes to birds and small mammals. By one estimate domestic cats kill as many as 4 billion birds and 22.3 billion mammals per year in the United States alone.

But Lepczyk wanted to know just how broad these animals’ palates are. The findings could have implications for scientists and policymakers trying to understand how cats are contributing to changes in ecosystems or affecting the fates of endangered species.

Cats have evolved to depend on animal protein. Their bodies aren’t built to metabolize plants, meaning they rely on meat to get most of their nutrition. Over the years, as Lepczyk went about his regular research, he kept a growing list of species turning up in any scientific papers that documented cat diets. The number has continued growing and growing. That, in itself, makes Lepczyk suspect the list will keep getting longer.

AAAAAAA thank you so much for reblogging and adding your feedback!!! you weren't condescending at all don't worry 💞

so disclaimer, i am very much american but my dad is argentine-italian and his side of the family is actually from the naples area!! so what little i do know influences my headcanons. i love napulitano south italy and i apologize for the inaccuracies.

he has such a bad smoking habit, dude fucking reeks. but understandable. cigars are expensive af and an occasional treat. i'm not sure how tobacco is taxed in the EU but i'm in australia and can hardly afford to smoke here. either way i do think romano is the kind of guy who doesn't mind spending money and enjoys reflecting wealth and good taste (e.g. showing off) then again i can say us italian americans can be kinda cheap 😭

tbh i was not aware that grappa isn't as popular in the south but now i do. he would definitely drink amaro liqueurs and digestifs, idk why i didn't think of limoncello but you're so right!!

also yeah i know dean martin is italian american, that was a bit of a personal touch just cause i like him. my nonna always ironically called him dino martino 😭 but yes i know rino gaetano!

i appreciate that you understand the way i describe his personality. like, you get it exactly. he's a generous, crochety old man. he wants to be left alone but he doesn't want to be alone. he's fiercely protective of feli even if he acts like he can't stand him. he's soft for toni and toni only.

and as far as names, i feel like hima either hits or misses with human names and the italy bros canon names are... inaccurate but i usually go by them just because. but i love your redesigns and renamings!!! they're so ... ughgggggghh 😍🤤

thank you again for your perspective, i'm always down to scream about romano and his pet idiot.

APH South Italy/Romano Headcanons 🇮🇹

(SFW, Spamano/RomaSpa centric)

He wears a lot of jewelry, but it's classy never flashy. Several rings, one of which is engraved with an 'A' for Antonio. Usually wearing at least a solid gold chain and a crucifix.

He's very Catholic, in a uniquely Italian way (iykyk i cannot elaborate)

He smokes like a chimney, high quality cigars and cheap cigarettes. If you ask him to put it out he will blow it right at you. This is on top of heavy cologne (Versace Eros) so you can smell him from a mile away.

Certified Short King™, maybe around 5'7? I can see him with almost any sort of physique, that being said I don't think he's a twink, he at least has some wiry strength. He's lean but solidly built, maybe even has some pudge esp as he ages?

He's very warm toned. His skin is a light olive, not pale yet not quite bronze. He tans well but isn't tan all year round. Honestly he probably uses tanning beds during winter lmao

He's got a fair amount of body hair and often leaves his shirts unbuttoned to display this, intentionally or not. He's a sharp dresser when out in public, but at home he sits around in sweat stained tanks and boxers.

He loves his red wine, and apertifs. Grappa or Sambuca for something a stronger. Doesn't mind the taste of hard liquor at all. Definitely holds his alcohol better than his brother or Antonio.

Loves sailing and yachting, leisure sports. Has a bit of a gambling habit. Not to a destructive point, just in good fun.

When he's in a good mood he hums to himself and you might even catch him singing if he thinks he's alone.

Dances to Dean Martin in the kitchen with Antonio. He actually likes cooking together. Normally he'd be the type of person to hate others in his space while doing something, but Toni is an equally talented chef so he allows it.

Makes a big pot of sauce and polpette on Sundays. Italians will know. Eats wayyyy too much meat than is healthy. You can pry his salumi out of his cold dead hands.

He's sensitive and not always rational - the type to make mountains out of molehills and deflect real issues with humour. Explosive temper. Born to argue. Quick to throw insults (and hands). Just as quick to forgive and forget. If he holds a grudge you really fucked up.

If he likes you, he'll tease you and call you names. If he doesn't, he won't bother to talk to you much. He likes to fuck with people to an extent but has little patience for unnecessary conversation.

He can be extremely condescending; and to Tonio exclusively, extremely sweet. He's a smooth talker and romantic when he feels like it, laying on the pet names and sweet nothings, especially when he wants something in return.

He's honest and loyal, but generally a very private person. It's difficult to earn his trust and get on his good side but once you have it you're one of the lucky few. He's hospitable and generous and often does that for show. Loves to give meaningful and lavish gifts. If he cares about someone not only will they be spoiled in a material sense, but he'll do favors for them to make their life easier.

(note: this might be controversial re; accuracy but i don't actually have beef with his canon human name. 'lovino isn't a real name' well yes and no. it's not common or representative. but there's so much variety in italian naming that it certainly could be a first name. according to forebears there are 259 ppl named lovino on record but only 9 are in italy lol. or u could just call him ~romano~ which is a more popular human first name. i kinda like lovino, its unique.)

[vtoriacore]

Hey there! :D

Do you take requests? If so you think you can make headcanons for the Axis and Allies with a reader who is as light as a feather and has to wear weighted things just so she wouldn't float? You could refer to the peculiar girl with the power of levitation from Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. If you don't do requests then just please feel free to ignore this. :)

✧ flyin’ high 

note: can you tell yao, luddy and francis are my favourites...? literally the only fictional characters i can currently think about lmao

synopsis: in which the boys react to you . . . floating? how strange.

ludwig

oh god help his poor soul, the minute he sees you up there is the minute he dips one leg into the coffin

will be worried 24/7 about you and will definitely ask you if you’re wearing the heavy things you need for appropriate occasions and whenever you’re out in the open pretty much, especially somewhere without a ceiling

he has a heart attack each time he thinks about this ^^^^

has a personal list of the things you need and is definitely the type to go out to get something if you so much as ask because he doesn’t want you going on your own and accidentally floating away

probably holds your hand every time you two go out though just in case (even if he gets flustered easily and isn’t much for pda, he isn’t risking anything!)

he often wonders what would happen if you just randomly floated away and gets worried all over again

calm him down and remind him that you will be fine, show him the heavy things you wear and he will be calmer again (like your boots, weighted bracelets/necklaces/belts, heavy bag etc.)

all in all is worried 24/7 but trusts that you know what you’re doing

“are you sure you will be fine [y/n]?”

“for the hundredth time yes, don’t worry”

“what about your-”

“all the things i need? i checked everything off the list, let’s go!”

“wait but-”

“look i love you but you need to loosen up come on luddy”

“okay... ich liebe dich auch”

feliciano

doesn’t understand the issue... that is until you start to slowly drift up to show him what you can do

panics and cries out for you to come back down because “how can i live without your pasta bella/o!”

while he’s down there crying, you’re most likely up there trying not to laugh because oh god what a sight to see

after you come back on the ground he starts to look out for you a bit more in his feliciano ways

might randomly ask you if you’re wearing the things you need while cooking, when you’re out on a stroll or when he’s painting just to make sure you’re okay

if you even jokingly answer ‘no’ he might actually cry so don’t (both for yours and his sake)

after some time he gets used to everything and will be much less worried

unless you do a stunt like the first time, he might glue himself to your side both metaphorically and physically to make sure you don’t float

it’s just his way of making sure you never leave his side, double win!

“buongiorno bella/o! did you sleep well?”

“mhm, yeah i did feli”

“bene! let’s go make breakfast!”

“haha okay love you~”

“ti amo anch’io bella/o~ don’t float away okay?”

“ah almost forgot!”

kiku

definitely not what he was expecting a human to do

usually they wouldn’t defy the laws of gravity like that?

actually looks surprised when you show him the way you can mindlessly float and then quickly reprimands you to come back down to earth, literally

is not as worried as ludwig but also not as carefree as feliciano, just the right amount you’d say

since he’s quite an observant person, he will immediately notice the way you pace yourself or if you’re not wearing the proper things, be it a belt or a heavy bag: nothing will get past him

spoiler alert: will also remind you in an instant to go get them or might even go with you to ensure your safety

please spare him the heart attack

sorry but he will not hold your hand like ludwig, even when you go out, he is just not the man for pda no matter what and that’s precisely why he will ask you questions in advance

“[y/n]-chan, are you sure you’re wearing everything you need?”

“hm? yeah pretty sure kiku, why?”

“you’re walking with an extra... bounce in your step.”

“oh? i didn’t even notice...”

“where is your special necklace?”

“oh! thank you for the reminder, i’ll go get it now love you!”

“i love you too”

alfred

first thing you’ll hear from him is “that’s so sick dudette/dude!”

and then he will think over what he said as he watches you float

and... panik

colour him surprised because wow that’s so cool but also maybe don’t accidentally get stuck somewhere when floating?

you’re up there giggling as he’s contemplating over what is even happening anymore ???

he doesn’t have qualifications for bringing people down to earth but he definitely will try... with a lasso

i think it’s best if you yourself get down there or else you might get injured, don’t worry, arthur would most likely show up and stop him... for now

will sometimes ask if you’re doing okay but overall isn’t that worried since he trusts that you know what you’re doing

alfred is definitely the type of person to just treat your ‘super power’ as he calls it more casually after that point and will even joke about how the both of you can be heroes now

might come up with a nickname for you that you’ll either hate or love or maybe both at the same time

“hey floatee~ wanna go get take away?”

“alfie... i swear to god if you call me that again-”

“okay what about levi-girl/boy?”

“no let’s just go get some pizza”

“aww okay fly-”

“NO”

arthur

what in god’s name do you think you’re doing

cue cardiac arrest

his eyes are bulging out of his sockets as he’s just staring at you in complete shock because humans shouldn’t do that??

is one second away from calling the fire fighters, that is until you come back down

will ask if you’re okay shortly before giving you a long lecture about the way you worry him

please never do that again, you do not want another 3 hour talk

you vow to never carelessly do that again and inform him on the things you have to wear not like he demanded to know seven times

is now like a walking reminder/checklist and probably memorised all your needed items of clothing

belt on? check! special weighted shoes? check! that metal necklace weighing at least 750g? check!

whenever you two go out shopping (which happens rarely), he’ll definitely point to things that might help you and his wallet will sigh in annoyance as he buys them because what’s stopping him?

he just wants to be reliable so please accept, it will make him insanely happy and will definitely make him proud of himself

“hm, what do you think of this [weighted] bracelet, love?”

“oh wow it looks amazing! the matte colour-”

“it’s only £45, i’ll get it for you”

“what do you mean only? i can’t let you do that-”

“yes thank you that will be all, let’s get going now love”

“thank you artie, love you but-”

“no worries, i love you too”

matthew

okay wow yeah no not today and not tomorrow and not ever

the minute you so much float up for a second, he’s instantly dragging you back down by your hand with worry filled eyes that just scream “please don’t”

looking like that much of a sad puppy has to be illegal

your heartbreak is immeasurable and your day is ruined moment?

please remind him that you’ll be okay and that you know what you’re doing, tell him that you’re not leaving and that he can trust you <3

just comfort matthew and he’ll instantly feel better after the ordeal

might offer to make you pancakes at 4 pm now, if i were you i’d accept the offer with no hesitance

will still be really worried about you when you’re out in the open and will quietly ask you if you’re okay every time

warning: heart melting in 3,  2,  1

always makes sure you have everything you need on you and is the type of person to similarly to kiku, observe whether or not you forgot something

“ah, are you ready [y/n]?”

“hm? yeah mattie, give me once second, just need to get my bag”

“okay, don’t forget the belt...”

“oh thanks! nearly forgot, okay be right back love you~”

“love you too”

ivan

can and will interrogate you on your ‘magical abilities’

and will inquire if you’re a magic user as he watches you temporarily float in he air before softly bringing you down himself

honestly he isn’t that worried (because he knows you’ll be okay), more of a fascination really

will ask if you can do the “levitating trick” again in safe conditions

say yes say yes say yes

cue in adorable smile and head tilt with a soft “thank you sunflower”

will definitely at some point ask if he can give you a magic metal pipe of pain 2.0 to compensate for all the other weight you’re carrying

will softly laugh if you decline but reminds you the offer is still there

all in all, very chill about your abilities

“hm i think we should go for a stroll, da?”

“yeah sure, im fine with that”

“Ладно (okay) let’s go sunflower :)”

“ah also... will you please show me your floating trick again?”

“awww of course ivan, any time~”

“Спасибо, Я люблю вас :) (thank you i love you)”

“no problem love you too~”

francis

initially perplexed and has this awestruck expression on his face once he sees you in the air

can and will compliment you from every angle and just say how “magnificent” you look when you levitate

cue in enthralling french laugh as he tells you to drop down so he can catch you (is it just me or did your heart just skip a beat?)

you thought he was joking? no. he did in fact, catch you with that charming smile as his hair swayed in the wind-

yeah you clearly picked the right mian to appreciate your ‘magical prowess’

just like ivan, he isn’t overly worried about the way you can float but will every now and again remind you of the things you need to wear

might also, like arthur, buy you some expensive weighted jewellery or clothing to show you he loves you nonetheless

so many shopping dates . . . literally sacrifices his money just to make sure you’re safe and happy so please accept everything with a smile~

“hm~ bonjour mon amour, how was your sleep?”

“oh it was fine thank you!”

“ah c’est bon~! we should definitely go shopping today then”

“hah? but we went yesterday-”

“hm~? mais je t’aime!”

“ . . . i love you too”

yao

cue in a “hah? what are you doing [y/n] you get back here right now-”

you’ll give him a heart attack if you do that again, please don’t

will most likely scold you, but don’t worry, it comes from a place of love and worry

say sorry and and hug him and he’ll forget the event even happened (for a minute at least)

after that point, he’ll start looking out for you more often and remind you of the things you need to wear

might or might not have warned you that if you ever purposefully levitate again, he’ll put a leash on you

don’t worry he’s only half joking!

if you ask him about what he thought of when you were floating, the chances that you’ll get a compliment are pretty high because even he cannot deny that it looked quite serene and peaceful

cue in rambling about how pretty you would’ve looked if you were surrounded by flowers and greenery-

and now he’s definitely red on the face so please spare him the embarrassment and suggest you two go cook something

“hnnng~ that tastes good don’t you think [y/n]?”

“oh definitely! you’re such a good cook!”

“o-oh! thank you very much!”

“should we add a bit of spice?”

“that would- hey wait is it just me or are you lighter than usual?”

“oh you’re right! i took my bracelet off to help-”

“aiyah! put it back on what if you float away-”

“hey it’s alright i’ll be fine kay? love you :)”

“ . . . love you too”

These are just some mixed general HC's but I can definitely get into certain/ specific ones too ;

- Italy makes up songs for America on his guitar (like the Germany song)

- Randomly, they'll start impersonating each other just because it's funny

- Alfred does his best to learn Italian so he can understand and talk to Feli in his mother language

- At the meetings, Alfred will randomly send Feliciano memes which in turn makes Feli burst out laughing

- One of the reasons they started dating was because of their combined love for food

- Feli's favourite person to paint is Alfred and Al is more than willing to pose for his artist.

- Even though Alfred isn't the best cook but he'll make Feli breakfast since he wakes up first.

- On Halloween they're the couple that ALWAYS matches costumes

- Whenever Italy is cooking dinner, America brings home his fave dessert since he appreciates Italy's cooking

- On Feli's birthday Alfred will host a huge fireworks show just like on his own birthday

- They have a combined playlist of songs they like or that fits the other It's basically meme songs

- At a party with drinks, Feli will choose not to drink (or will only drink one) so Alfred doesn't feel left out.

- Their preferred spot to have dates is either at a trampoline park, or the cinema

- On the days leading up to valentine's day, Felicano will leave notes around the house that have some romantic message or a joke

- On warm nights Alfred will lay a blanket down and will stargaze with Feli, even pointing out celestial bodies or constellations.

- They like to tease/ prank their older brothers at the same time poor Matt and Lovi

- If Alfred kills a spider or gets rid of something that scares him, Feli will always call him "my hero"

- Most Saturday mornings they will watch cartoons while eating breakfast.

- They share the same braincell

- Both are so interested in one another's countries that they do research (which is done by asking the other millions of questions.)

- Thanks to Italy, America's favourite type of food is Italian

- They always say "I love you" to each other even after a fight which was only once because they couldn't decide if Die Hard was a Christmas movie or not, technically not a fight

- America is very loud which Italy enjoys this because he knows he isn't lonely. (Plus he’s quite loud himself)

- If something at the store interests Feliciano, Alfred is quick to buy it for him.

- Whenever Al is out shopping he always buys flowers for Feli

- During the holiday season, they always watch Christmas movies, overly decorate, and have a friendly competition of who has more Christmas spirit. They always end up with a tie though.

- Definitely the video game couple; Feli plays games like Animal Crossing and the Sims. While Alfred plays games like Dead By Daylight and Injustice 2 . Either way they always end up playing together.

- Italy loves wearing America's glasses even if they hurt his eyes after a while

- If Alfred was in college Feliciano would 100% make his lunch (and does if he has to work too)

- Feliciano likes to cling onto Alfred and he likes to jump on him.

- Every time they see one another it's always loud excitement: "Americaaaaaaa~!" and "Italyyyyyy!"

- They give each other nicknames; Italy calling Al things like amore mio, bello, principe mio, etc. (my love, handsome, my prince.) America in turn calling Feli things like his sun, sweetness, baby, etc.

- When trying things like ice skating/ skating, Alfred always manages to catch Feli if he falls.

- Somehow Feli can understand everything Alfred says when he has food in his mouth

- If Italy gets homesick, he looks into America's eyes because they're the same colour as the water in Naples. or just his home in general

These are just some of my HC's, I do hope you enjoy! Maybe a part 2?
