Hiiii, I would like some Dungeon Meshi headcanons please! Reader is the oldest human in the main group and they're really motherly towards them. Like they're always fretting over their well beings and acting like a doting parent. And if you want, could you also add that Chilchuck's kinda into that so he falls for them?
Tumblr media
That's all thank you!
Tumblr media
…ft! chilchuck x gn! reader, platonic touden party & reader
…tags! fluff, some crack, headcanon format, mild manga spoilers, reader is referred to as ‘mom’ once
…wc! 847
…notes! the way i nearly screeched in delight when i got this ask. chilfuckers i’m one of you let me in. you used they/them for the reader so i’m gonna assume this is a maternal gn reader! i hope it is for your liking ty for being my first request 🥺

Having a more wise, of age individual in the party is always a plus when you need some advice.
And when most people in the party are absolute lunatics.
You have your hands full trying to stop Laios acting recklessly in action, or doting on Marcille when her emotions get the best of her.  Goodness, even Senshi has your hair going grey from how he gets sometimes!
Laios just sort of… lets your doting happen.
He can get slightly grumbly if you get too mad at him.  Still, it’s not the worst thing a parental figure could do.  Go easy on him!
Marcille takes psychic damage upon learning your age.  She’s staring at you, at the age in your face, and taking the years into account.
It’s simply not computing.  You… You should be, like, a pre-teen or something!  Human ageing baffles her once again.
Still… she is incredibly receptive to you doting on her.  She’s more of a carer on instinct but she finds herself falling into you whenever her spoons are low.
Senshi just sort of hits you with the “why tho” when you try fretting.  It’s actually slightly frustrating.  Still, you can recognise his wisdom and take a step back.  He can take care of himself… most of the time.
Izutsumi… oh the dear girl.
You must have recognised the signs immediately.  Her lack of table manners, her reclusive nature… she’s so young.
The girlcat was a bit prickly to any doting at first.  You would probably remind her a bit too much of Maizuru for her liking.
With time, perhaps sometime after he run-in with her succubus, Izutsumi would be a bit more welcoming of how you treat her.  It’s… It makes her feel nice, or whatever.
She accidentally calls you Mom once.  She was mortified as Marcille squeals in delight and Laios laughs to himself.  You couldn’t even ask if she thinks of you as a mother figure before she’s already stomping away to hide in a corner somewhere.
Then there’s Chilchuck.  Oh, what to say about him.
You probably thought he was a young human at first too.  He’s taller than other half-foots after all.  Still, as soon as you even try to act maternal around him, he yells at you and tells you he isn’t a kid.
Keep your distance for a bit, and he’ll warm up to you again.
Watching you do your thing with the other party members will have him commenting that he has no idea how you can just keep up with everyone like this, and he’s the one with three kids here.
You just smile gently and reply that it helps you keep stability knowing everyone in the party is doing alright.  At that, Chilchuck will give you a glance, and internalise your words.
Upon Izutsumi’s arrival into the party, Chilchuck’s perspective on you begins to alter slightly.
Initially, he respected you a fair bit.  You were more like the two older co-workers constantly giving each other looks at the younger ones’ antics.
But he sees you with this child he also has to admit he’s grown attached to.  You really were a natural maternal figure to Izutsumi.  He watches you tend to her sometimes, a smile slowly curling on his lips.
Then he catches himself, and his blood runs cold.
…Ohhh, shit. 
Chilchuck is level headed most of the time, but when he’s panicking he can’t keep his cool to save his life.
Around you, he becomes more… frantic, in a way.  Lecturing others to give you a break, even if he can just have a small talk with you.  If asked what’s up he’d raise his voice defensively and say it doesn’t matter.
One time, Izutsumi decided she can’t choose between her two favourite human heaters, and practically forced you and Chilchuck to sleep on either side of her.  Even with the girl slotted in between you two, Chilchuck was internally losing his mind at the closeness.
He even lets you dote on him a bit more again.  Not too much, though.  He’ll accept the occasional checking in and headpat but that’s it!
You can very easily pick up on his feelings for you.  It’s not hard to notice the shift in his attitude.
Well… It’s not like you can complain.  You may offer to help him out with his future shop once you’re out of here, giving him a slight wink.
Cherish how red his face gets.  He won’t let anyone else embarrass him so easily.  Maybe pinch his cheeks if you’re feeling brave, but he may swat you away depending on his mood.
At the end of the day, he’ll give you a small smile, and wonder aloud where the Hell all the party would be if it weren’t for you.
(Bonus!  I think Falin would also super appreciate your presence.  She’s the kind to simply take her own parents’ treatment of her and shrug it off in a ‘it is what it is’ sort of way.  Your doting attitude would leave her slightly discombobulated, but she’s very welcome to it.)

Yandere rottmnt
Rottmnt yandere writing (Romantic)
Warning: Mentions of violence, unhealthy relationships, manipulation, kidnapping. (Do not do any of this in real life, this is just for entertainment purposes)
(Notes: I’m changing Y/n to Mc or just saying you)
Sorry this took so long to post, but I had writers block and it took me a while to write.
Raph
Overprotective and clingy 
He just wants to keep Mc safe and protected, and the best way to do that is to always be around them
He loves hugging Mc because if they’re in his arms, nothing will hurt them, so he cuddles with Mc a lot
As the oldest, he feels responsible for his family's safety, and he includes you in that, so he absolutely loves when you depend on him for anything, it doesn’t matter what it is, it could be just getting something off a shelf, or helping you train
Is very careful around you, because of all his spikes and that he’s just so big and could hurt you so very easily, and he’ll always try to keep you away from his spikes, just in case
Raph wishes he didn’t have to deal with being a Hamato, and fighting villains, and almost dying a lot, because you spend less time together because of it, and you’re in danger cause you’re friends with him
He’ll try and find the courage to confess first, but if you do, he won’t have any issues with it 
If Raph confesses first, then it’ll be on accident, he just blurted it out while you two were cuddling or something
Loves to just be with you, you two don’t maven have to do anything, he just likes being around you
As much as he loves affection is private, he gets so embarrassed with PDA, and doesn’t like it that much
Leo
Manipulative, self-indulgent
Leo wants to be needed by Mc
He’s highly insecure about himself, and he wants to feel helpful to them because he associates his worth with what he can do for others
If Mc comes to Leo with their problems, Leo will feel so proud of himself, and he will do anything to help
Will try to isolate Mc from people, so he can be the only one they depend on
Very manipulative, he makes it seem like isolating you from everyone is a good thing because they “Never really cared about you” or “Are just using you” and other various excuses that he has come up with to keep you with him
The only people you’re allowed to communicate with other than him, are his brothers, Splinter, April, and Casey (he does not trust anyone else with you)
He gets jealous very easily and always wants attention and affirmation that he’s worth it, and that you love him
He seems very cocky and jokes around a lot, but he’s actually insecure and uses jokes to hide it
He’s very affectionate, and caring, but he can be overbearing a lot
Donnie
Impulsive, dependant 
Donnie has definitely hacked into the street cameras near your house, and the school cameras, so he can always watch you
Most likely has at least two trackers on you, and checks them every few hours
He craves your affirmation, and does so many things to impress you, like inventing things that would interest you, or being reckless to protect you
If Mc compliments him, he’ll be so very happy, because like Leo, he’s very insecure
Will try and get you to spend as much time with him as possible, but he's not that jealous, cause he knows you can never replace him
He does worry about it, but he's convinced himself you love him back, because why else would you give him, and only him, compliments
Donnie will only make a move, and ask you out if his brothers or April pressure him enough, or if you give him hints that you like him, however, hes extremely dense and doesn’t get social cues, so even if you flirted with him everyday, he’d never notice it
If you confess first, then he’ll automatically accept, but he’ll definitely try to hide his obsession with you, even more than before 
All he wants is a cute domestic relationship with you, but he’d never admit it
Mikey
Worshiping, obsessive 
Sees Mc as some sort of god, that must be worshiped and praised, and will do absolutely anything for them
Is either very shy around you, or ecstatic to see you, but either way he loves being around you, and he sees it as a gift from you, that he gets to spend the most time with you
Has a closet in his room that’s just filled with stuff you gave him, stuff he stole from you, photos of you, or just stuff that reminds him of you
He does somewhat try to hide his obsession, but he wouldn’t really care that much if you found out, unless you left him for it
Mikey is extremely energetic with his fighting style as is, but if / when he fight people for you (They’re either trying to hurt you or they already have) he’s even more energetic, and much more violent
If it means protecting you, he’ll do anything, even if it's morally wrong or illegal  
If you find out he’s obsessed and you do try and leave him he’ll be devastated, he sees you as a god like being, so clearly the only reason you left is because he’s not good enough for you, or he did something to offend you
He’ll try and get you back by any means necessary, even if you try and cut contact with him
But if you don’t then Mikey will be the happiest person ever, and will probably ask to marry you

Sense Bowser X Luigi as well as king boo X Luigi live rent free in my brain it’s become common for me when I start thinking of one head canon for a ship I also start thinking about how that would work for the other
For this head canon Luigi has trouble sleeping  what kind of ghost hunter/ex ghost hunter a.k.a. person with crippling anxiety doesn’t?
I imagine both Bowser and king boo absolutely hate that. they hate how they see their boyfriend Luigi Wide awake some nights  they also get severely frustrated when Luigi decides to bake or do some tinkering instead of just relaxing.
So with the determination of a pack of lions hunting for a meal they both have a goal In trying to find a way to help Luigi sleep.
Bowser immediately gos to Kamek and kammy Seeing if they have any information but the only thing that they recommend is whipping up a potion for him. in all honesty bowser is not too fond of that idea he doesn’t want Luigi to become dependent on magic and he knows that if you use too much of it, it could have long-term side effects. 
So he opps out and decides to go to his children instead maybe one of them have an idea after all there’s 8 of them. Even though Bowser knew that his kids would try their best in finding a way to help Luigi fell asleep he didn’t expect his kids to be so enthusiastic about it although it’s not all that surprising they’ve learned to care for him almost just as much as Bowser did.
By the end of the entire conversation there was one option that stood out to Bowser from the rest and that was compression therapy it was suggested by one of his oldest.  It’s one of the few options that didn’t seem too far-fetched. listen his kids were enthusiastic but not exactly the smartest bunch he realize that soon after Morty suggest just knocking him out with violence.
Either way one night when Bowser was heading to bed he quite literally had to drag Luigi out of the garage from whatever he was working on this time.  Before cuddling up in the bed Bowser mentions how he wants to try something new and that to tell him if it’s uncomfortable
You see, when they usually cuddle Bowser is very aware of his size so he just usually curls up next to Luigi or Luigi is the one who’s plopped on top of him not to say that Bowser‘s gonna plop his entire weight on top of Luigi no I imagine Bowser putting an arm on Luigi or head head is more than enough weight
Luigi was a little bit surprised by this but it was pleasant nonetheless he half jokingly asks Bowser if he’s trying to trap him to go to sleepbut when bowser didn’t respond his joking tone left as he ask’s again
As for king boo technically he could also do that although I don’t know if that’s quite possible sense you know… He’s a ghost
king boo has a different way of getting Luigi to fall asleep because seeing his boyfriend quite literally staying awake around the same time that him and his boos are is a bit concerning and what’s even more concerning is when he doesn’t even sleep through the morning he just stays awake maybe he’ll take a nap but it lasts like an hour or two and then he’s back up and at it
I really like the idea of king boo liking to garden it was in one of the fan fictions that I read in where he has a garden because he wants to prove to himself that he can keep something alive and that not everything he hast to do hast to deal with death. I love that concept so it must be added to more
With that being said King boo takes out A book about teas and the plants that are used to make them. He ended up making a combination of lemon balm and chamomile using honey and a bit of cream. since he knows that Luigi prefers his tea to be on the sweeter side just like his coffee.
When Luigi was first offered the tea by king boo Luigi was drying his dishes he knows he could leave it for tomorrow but since he has the time now he decided to just go on right ahead since what else would he be doing it to in the morning. luigi wasn’t surprised by the cup since this isn’t The first time that he’s received tea from him but he slightly confused by the sudden appearance it wasn’t until King Boo explained that he made this cup especially for him, to help him sleep is what surprised the fact that his partner made it specifically with him in mind made his heart flutter 
Luigi was touched by this  A big smile grows upon his face as he lets go of the dish that he was drying place his hands on the cheeks of king boo squishing the king face as he plants a kiss on his lips. it was over before King Boo could finish processing what was happening and by the time he did Luigi took the mug out of his nubbed hand taking a hefty sip with a satisfied sigh he thanks him.
Luigi and king boo decide to watch a movie as they wait to see if the tea’s purpose works. When it reached 30 minutes in King boo started to worry on whether or not if he messed up the ingredients but after 15 more minutes his attention is pulled away from the TV by The small sound of their boyfriend snoring 
King boo very carefully picks up Luigi to take him out of the screening room and into the bedroom  to let him sleep the last few hours of the night and the first few hours of the morning away

(bonus: bowser also finds out that humming helps Luigi fall asleep, king boo finds out that surrounding Luigi with pillows and blankets help out)

would you possibly mind describing your version of the masked bullies (dean, mark, jeremy) from the co-parent/step by step au? i’m uhhhh asking for a friend ,, and the friend is me
not to be dramatic but i would die for you
Jokes aside, though, absolutely! I'm so feral for these losers you have NO idea. I've been dying for someone to ask so I have an excuse to rant, so thank you for providing that! I am providing fair warning in advance that since you didn't provide much clarification on what you wanted, I'm going to kind of give a broad overview of everyone. I'll save more detailed backstories for another day, but I’ll give a sentence or two here!
________________________ Let's start with Mark, because he is by far my favorite little guy. I say little, but my man is easily the tallest out of the entire friend group! Marcus Shaw is also technically the oldest, but only by a few months—I headcanon his birthday as January 8th. Mark is fiercely loyal, as we've seen, and also very pugnacious. He loves a good fight, and will actively look for any excuse to start one. Mark has unresolved anger issues, is actively involved in kickboxing, and can and will go to jail to prove a point. This is, of course, much to the eternal expression of his other friends, who love him anyway and are constantly dragging him away from potential fights by the scruff of his t-shirt. Despite his flaws, Mark is loyal, determined, kind, and caring. He's the friend who will take care of you on bad days, who will sit with you quietly and give you a place to talk. He's constantly brimming with rage, but he chooses to be kind. But God help you if you get on his bad side. (goood qualities idk i’m tired af rn). His parents, a therapist and a lawyer, divorced when he was four, and he’s been bitter about it ever since, especially since everyone has agreed that it was his deadbeat father’s fault. Still, his parents do their best to remain cordial and involved in their son’s life. He's originally from New Orleans, and his accent comes out when he's angry (Dean finds it hilarious.)
Dean Perez…it would be easier to list the crimes he hasn’t committed. Of course, he would point at his parents and say “Can you blame me?” His mother is the daughter of a mafia boss, and his father has been involved in police work all his life—it would have been a miracle if he’d turned out a law-abiding citizen. Dean is the youngest of the group, much to his chagrin—he was born last, on August 5th. He does a phenomenal job of hiding his intense insecurities and perceived lack of identity behind inappropriately timed humor. Despite his annoyingly persistent optimism and his insistence on murder being a viable solution to problems, he’s a wonderful guy and an amazing friend. Loyal to a fault (as all of them are), determined, and willing to do anything, and we mean anything, to help. You want a ride or die friend? That's him. Need to bury a body? Or just someone to drink with? He's there! (good qualities) Dean is always ready to either throw a party or throw a punch for a friend. He discovered he was trans masc when he was twelve years old, and began to transition a few months later when he met the others. (Dean keeps insisting they’re the “Queer Quartet,” since all of them are part of the community in some way. The others refuse to call themselves that. Dean swears he’ll get them one day.) (Editor's note: He's right. They get a group chat called the Queer Quartet.)
Jeremy Fitzgerald is the textbook definition of a best friend. As the second oldest (April 22nd) he’s kind, smart, loyal to a fault, level-headed, and best of all, completely willing to break the law if it’ll be funny. Unfortunately, this little guy has more anxiety than a bull in a china shop, and it gets him in trouble sometimes. Plus, he's a bit…morbid, to say the least. There's a reason he knows about organ strangulation off the top of his head. He loves crime and medical shows. If he was born today, Dr. House and Dr. Spencer Reid would be his idols, for better or for worse. His mother, the head of operations at the local hospital, survived breast cancer when he was younger, and his father is an amputee with a prosthetic arm from where he lost it to a shark. That shark was actually the catalyst for his parents’ meeting and their entire relationship. Jeremy has a brother named after that shark—James, his oldest brother! Jeremy has the biggest family of them all, with three brothers and a younger sister about Elizabeth’s age (ten!). He is the chronic middle child.
Finally, we arrive at Michael—our punching bag protagonist! His mother is actually different from David and Elizabeth’s. He was born on May 13th! William had a fling with a Greek exchange student in college, and he ended up with custody of little Michael because she didn't want him. Michael is very AudHD, as are all of his siblings, and despite what he says about himself, he is a very smart boy. He’s been taking care of his siblings since they were born, giving him that token protector instinct, but also leading to a lot of resentment towards his siblings because he never wanted to be parentalized at 8 years old. Thanks to William's…contributions to his mental and physical health, he has depression, anxiety, permanent scarring, and more issues that lead to a ton of self-hatred and rage, which he takes out on his siblings until the accident of ‘83, where in every AU, he realizes he needs to get his shit together and do better. He is easily manipulated, thanks to his father, and extremely self-sacrificing. He will willingly walk into fire and burn just to see his siblings smile, often taking punishments from his father so they wouldn't be hurt. We love him so much and he learns from his mistakes, doing EVERYTHING for his siblings and family, no matter what. (Editor's note: He does have naturally darker skin than his father! He also does not take care of himself because he doesn't matter, right? It's everyone ELSE that matters. Not him.)
That’s everyone, I think! I hope these answered your questions, and if they didn’t feel MORE than free to ask more questions! I love answering them! (Editor's note: Thank you SO MUCH for letting us ramble about our scrunkle scrimblos, I love them so MUCH and they're all AMAZING.)
Bonus: these are picrews my editor and I made of the main cast! I can’t draw for shit but if anyone wants to do better feel free! (Order: Michael, Jeremy, Dean, Mark)

it’s aj kiddos time ! each of which i am pretty happy with, particularly creme and empire. though unfortunately once more, i don’t think i’m keeping one of ‘em. particularly liberty. he’s not a character i preference writing for, and i just don’t think there’s any plot point he could be used for. so he’ll be available for adoption later~ anyways! 
great banquet [she/they|pansexual polyamorous|youngest]
boisterous and loud , banquet has always had a sort of “old family soul” to her. she’s a wild spirit, who will shout to the absolutely high heavens about how wonderful those closest to her are. and how much she loves and adores her siblings, cousins, mom, ma, uncle, aunt, cat, dog, mouse, sheep--everyone really! her favorite past times are making huge feasts for others, and sharing all the love that comes with the food she serves. and no matter who you are, how long you’ve known each other. big banny will be there to give you a hot meal, and warm hug .
apple creme brûlée [she/her|lesbian|oldest]
hot-shot business mare, creme is the headstrong, anchor of her family. she’s a strong armed fighter for her family’s ability to stay afloat, for more than just their farm. and she’s a entrepreneur aimed to expand her catering business, while also dreaming of opening up her very own high-end restaurant one day! her mother on the other hand, tries to keep her much more “grounded to reality” and lead her to working only on the business side of sweet apple acres. causing the two to butt heads quite a lot, as creme’s big aspirations fight against aj’s small town, near and dear-close family mindset.
liberty lionheart [he/him|straight|second oldest]
seeker of truth, pillager of lies, strength of the ponies--liberty is the great and powerful arm of the civilians. the activist of all rights for those who seek them! he is always there! dedicating himself, and all with the voice to do so to speak up and tell the world what he thinks! he will not be silenced! this devoted stallion is the “voice of a generation” as tabloids would say. he’s a kindhearted pony, who seeks to use his passion for those who can’t find it in themselves to. liberty spends his days protesting in towns, making headlines, and tying himself to trees so they don’t get destroyed. and one can’t deny his dedication,,,one could try to get him to relax. as he always seems to find a way to bring up the exploitation of the earth ponies in the lower class every time he visits, and while his family would love to talk more on that! they’d also like to get to know more about what he’s been doing, and how he’s been feeling-and oh. guess not! it’s protest time!!
empire estate [he/him|bisexual|second oldest]
prim, proper, and elegant in most all ways. empire is the pretty face of the blue-apple siblings. he’s cool headed, and speaks only when he deems most necessary. he’s a pretty secretive guy, who doesn’t exactly fit the whole “vibrant-family man” that one would expect of an apple family member. but he doesn’t especially care. empire keeps to himself mostly, and rarely is found doing anything but working. he is very wise when actually getting him to talk, and has a lot of introspective thoughts and perspectives. but his persona doesn’t exactly tend to get that from him all the time, so most ponies opinions on the guy is “mysterious and pretty.”

So how does Guy handle being a father? Is there a moment where after he confides in you about his worries about becoming his dad, you see him being gentle with the kiddo and realize his fears aren't going to come to pass? :3c (@proton-selfships)
I think there were a lot of times, especially leading up to the birth of our oldest, where he just had this almost paralyzing fear of being like his father. I do think as soon as she was born he quit drinking for the most part and it continues with the other kids. Like he refuses to drink in front of them or drink enough to get drunk. He’ll only have a beer or two if we’re out with friends or home alone
His fears would alleviate in time, especially by the time our youngest is born. He’d be a lot more comfortable as a dad and parenting the kids. I think he’d make it a point to never raise his voice in an aggressive way when the kids are within earshot. And he’d really avoid having a favorite child because he was the afterthought kid in his family. So he’d really do his best to show all of the kids he loves them equally and no expectations for them outside of them being good people and pursuing what they’re passionate about
Like yes, as Hannah gets older he does spend a lot of time with her but that’s mainly because she develops meta powers extremely similar to Green Lantern abilities and she stubbornly insisted on becoming a hero. He absolutely takes strides to spend time with each of the kids individually and as a family and learn their interests. When Vivian starts to take an interest in plants and expresses she wants a little garden in the backyard, he takes her to Home Depot immediately to get the supplies and do research. When Hal starts to get into physics and mechanical engineering, Guy takes him to the library to check out as many books as he wants and uses his ring to make mechanical constructs for Hal to safely take stuff apart and build. Emma takes a while to find herself? That’s okay, because her dad is right there to support whatever her current interest/hobby is
And every day when the kids are little and he’s tucking them into bed after telling them a (totally made up) story about his adventures in space, I remind him he’s an amazing dad and 100x the man his father could ever be

Do the Soggy Bottom Boys have siblings?
Because I'm deeply unwell about this movie, this is something I've been turning over for a minute- especially since we know Pete is decidedly brotherless. Here's what I've got.
Delmar: I’ve touched on this before in one of my earlier fics, but to me Delmar gives very sunshine baby only child energy. Born into a family that always wanted children but ended up with just the one, probably late in life. Got doted on a little too much. I can’t imagine there being many other children around either, whether that’s cousins or just friends. He seems like a lonely child. But he’ll find his people in time.
Pete: Canonically no brothers, but sisters are possible. I somehow still see him with no siblings but a lot of cousins, with the kind of family where they’re all just allowed to run wild and form their own conglomerate. So he’d have a similar experience. I really don’t think he came from a good home, and the lack of anyone to look after him or at least share in the struggle would explain a lot of his resilience/stubbornness, if that makes sense.If he did have any siblings I think they’d be younger, based on his interactions with Wash’s son (“You oughta be in bed, crumbsnatcher.”) But he’s got a clear loyalty to kin, and I can’t imagine him not seeking out his siblings in any way.
Everett: First or second in a family of 4 boys. No sisters. The need to be control- usually reasonable but often over the top, the needless (and honestly masterful) antagonism of the other two for no other reason than his own amusement, and the kindness and patience he shows towards Delmar, the softest and slowest of them- all screams big brother. And for all his skills with other men, he has absolutely no sense with women, with hardly any experience with them in real life. As easily he can play Delmar and Pete, Penny can play him. And it makes him so mad. He likes having things his way, and he’s used to it. Any big brother worth his salt knows how to get the little ones to be lackeys. 
Tommy: The real life Robert Johnson was the youngest of eleven, but his film self is so far removed from the actual man that I’m not counting it. I think youngest is right, probably closer to 7, at the point of child-rearing when everyone’s tired and the oldest ones have started to have their own lives, leaving young Tommy more free range. Makes sense no one noticed when he ran off for the crossroads. But he’s clearly been raised right, real gentle and well-mannered. Of course, a big factor in that is also just being a black man in the South, especially in that era. Just asserting that he exists is seen as wrong. But I like the thought of him having a little cluster of brothers and sisters to help him navigate the world, teaching him etiquette and encouraging his dreams of fame- though apparently not taking the time to teach him guitar.

Relationships
 Combaticons (No active blogs. Mostly NPC’s at times unless needed.)
-  Gestalt Team  -  Partners
The only four mechs in the universe Vortex truly cares and would do anything for. The gestalt bond they share has brought them close to each other they decided to become polyamorous. Vortex likes each one in their own unique way, though enjoys Blast Off’s company the most.
Shrapnel  -  metallightningbug  -  G1/ Main Verse
-  Close Friend  -  Torture/ Eating Buddy
The Insecticons have always been an interesting set of creatures Vortex has liked, but Shrapnel especially takes the prize for being just as twisted and sadistic as he is. Torture sessions have never been more fun and entertaining with him at his side either helping out, eating the limps, or whatever is left of the mech after they are done with them. Vortex greatly appreciates Shrapnel’s presence, adores his unique nature, and will happily invite him to every session to watch him delightfully work his magic.
Cannibal AU: Same as above except Vortex’s tastes for Cybertronians seams to have piqued Shrapnel’s interest in the Combaticon even more, and he’s quite thrilled to be himself around the bug without having to worry about being too freakish. Who knows where this will lead for the two of them?
Blaze  -  photobombingcryptid  -  Main Verse
-  Close Friend (with benefits)  -  It’s Complicated. (At times.)
At first, Vortex was interested in Blaze as he was nothing more than a 4 million-year-old virgin copter with strange quirks. After many adventures, frags, and bickering like the oldest couple to ever exist, they have grown to enjoy each other’s company, personality and invade another’s personal space with no complaints. Vortex finds himself close to him and is one of the few mechs outside the gestalt he’ll look after and pamper. Whether the two actually have something between them or not, it’ll likely never be spoken about as they are either too stubborn or are just unable to comprehend those thoughts into words.
The Combaticons have also accepted Blaze as part of their squad where each of them has their own unique relationship with the cryptid, because what’s the worst that could happen to have two badass, flirty, and wild copters running around?
Whirl  -  polyhexianchicken  -  Main Verse
-  Friend -  Spar/ Hang Out Buddy
Another copter Vortex finds himself interested in. He absolutely likes Whirl’s fun personality and the fact that he isn’t afraid or doesn’t seem to be creeped out by the Combaticon’s odd behavior. They enjoy clashing any chance they get as it’s the perfect way for two high-energy and violent copters to release it all in one go. Receiving damage seems to be the least of their worries, in Vortex’s case, it’s because he’s a masochist/ sadist, loves it, and believes Whirl does as well. It’s only a matter of time before he finds out Whirl is actually an asexual, even so, he doubts his opinion of the copter will change.
Wild  -  wild-at-spark -  Main Verse / AU
-  Friend -  Spar/ Hang Out Buddy
A small but feisty doctor who has caught the Combaticon’s attention. It’s not often Vortex comes across someone, a doctor nonetheless, who’s as savage and bloodthirsty as he is and so far she has been ticking off all the boxes in becoming a great friend and fellow companion for creating chaos. He enjoys her company and likes how she can handle his strange behavior without any issues. She has an interesting personality and an outlier ability and he’d love to learn more about the tiny femme.
Yet to be named AU: They become close and develop feelings for each other. Their size difference and demeanor make it a whole lot more entertaining.
Smokescreen  -  ask-smokescreen  -  Main Verse
-  Enemy  -  ???
An Autobot whom Vortex has abused time and time again, even cutting off his door wings at some point because he had a creepy obsession for them to hang in his trophy room. Yet, for some unknown reason, Smokescreen kept returning or contacting Vortex making him believe that they were either brave, stupid, or just looking to annoy him for his own amusement. Whatever the case, the copter doesn’t know what to think of them though he did enjoy their horror movie night session and watching the ‘Bot get scared. Maybe in time, and a couple more binge fests and chats, he’ll figure out what to do with them.
---
Past Relations: 
Blogs that are inactive/ deactivated but still hold a special place here.
Hook  -  G1
-  Comrade  -  Romantic Partner
Vortex crushed hard on the medic who was into strange things while Hook liked how deranged the copter was. Love at first sight? Unlikely. Boundaries were set by the Constructicon to make sure Vortex didn’t overstep and strut around the medical bay as if he owned it, or think he could just get what he wanted because he asked nicely. They truly bonded by cutting open and torturing ‘Bots together, seeing just how fragged up the other is, and filling up their trophy rooms with the pieces/ parts of the enemy to remind themselves of their lovely date nights. Both sides of the gestalt weren’t too happy about the two hooking up but they’ve learned to accept and deal with it within time.
Blades  -  G1
-  Rival  -  It’s Complicated
The fact that Blades is a dirty blood thirsty fighter who also happens to have an helicopter alt mode just ticks off all the boxes for Vortex. He has the hots for him, perhaps a little too much for someone who’s suppose to be the enemy, but it doesn’t stop the Combaticon from wanting to fight, frag or fondle them whereas Blades wants to beat him to a pulp or at least begging for mercy. It’s a terrible love/hate relationship with some sexual tension going on between them, and only time will tell if one will eventually get bored/ sick of the other and just kill them or frag and get it over with.
Allen  -  Main Verse
-  Friend (with benefits)  -  Also Complicated
For some time Allen was another mech who Vortex sought out to torment and play games with just because he could. Eventually, Allen got into it, which made Vortex fascinate and decide to toy with them more. Their relationship was simply casual however Allen did form a crush on the copter and may have wanted things to go further. Vortex did not and thought it was best to keep their relationship the way it was which Allen eventually accepted over time. Whether Vortex shows it or not, deep down he does care for him and likes his presence, he just doesn’t want to get their hopes up.
Overlord  -  Main Verse
-  Friend  -  Torture Buddy
Vortex has read about Overlord in the database but has never thought in a lifetime he would ever get to meet, let alone have the pleasure of torturing some poor soul with the phasesixer. Crossing paths with him was one of the biggest highlights of his life, and defiantly one of the best dates (if one would call it that) of hanging out at his place, getting the privilege to enter the ‘basement’, and pick an unlucky prisoner to ruin in the most unpleasant ways imaginable. Vortex had taken a liking to him considering they shared a lot of similarities, though he wasn’t too keen on Overlord wanting to keep him to himself, and away from his gestalt team.
Caliber  -  Main Verse
-  Deceased Friend  -  Potential Lover
An old friend and a bounty hunter that was very interested in Vortex along with his interrogating work. The Combaticon was happy to be his mentor and show him the ropes so that they could get to know each other more. The two had defiantly gotten close, feelings may have been established and though neither of them would speak up about it, things still remained smoothly between them. Unfortunately, Caliber grabbed the attention of another bounty hunter who injured him severely and when Vortex managed to track him down he had no choice but to put him out of his misery. A task that was not easy to do and something he keeps in the depths of his processor in hopes that it never resurfaces.

Demons vs Human Joints
(The demons lose) Weird Physical Things Humans do that freak demons out - part two I guess? OG can be found Here
It was a brief, trivial thing, to stretch and crack multiple joints in their body. Brief and trivial to them, at least! Popping the nitrogen bubbles in the synovial fluid surrounding their joints was something that humans naturally did. To some it was a habit, to some it brought relief. Sometimes it just happened.  But to Demons? That was not a sound bodies should be making.
Lucifer
“Would you care to explain that awful noise that just emanated from your body, MC?”
That reaction is absolutely a cover up for how genuinely concerned he is. He’s only heard noises like that on a battlefield.
He had been assigned to keep you safe, and now it’s a desire he truly has. He acknowledges that he has failed to do so on several occasions and absolutely never wants that to happen again.
As soon as he heard it, his head whipped towards you, eyes roaming over to make sure you were okay.
Even though he knows it doesn’t hurt you, every time you do it he instinctively checks you over. 
Mammon
“The Great Mammon demands for you to never make that noise ever again.”
The crack in his voice serves to undermine his command. As soon as he heard that noise, and knew the noise was coming from MC, he frantically grabbed MC’s shoulders.
Expertly checks for injuries, which to some may be surprising but only until one remembers he’s the second oldest, and has taken care of his siblings, and now he’s inspecting MC as he had inspected his brothers, countless times before.
“You’re so weird, ya know. I don’t know how to react to even half the things you do! - What even was that sound??”
He is very relieved it wasn’t serious, but he got flustered when he realized his actions. “Well. Of course I knew humans could do that, I am the Great Mammon!”
Every time you do it around him, he perks up. If he had dog ears they would raise in awareness.
He doesn’t quite know how else to react to it - sure, it might be fun to have MC do it to freak others out, especially his brothers. But the sound disturbs him too, just a little bit, and every time he hears it, although he knows you’re okay, worry spikes. So, he always perks up when he hears it.
Leviathan
“WHOA! That’s so cool!”
The first time Levi heard you crack your knuckles, he did a massive double take. See, he was in the unique position of knowing of the phenomenon but believing it was something that didn’t actually happen, much like nosebleeds upon being aroused.
He wasn’t as worried as some of the other demons were, since he was aware of the concept.
It seemed like he was a bit starstruck, to he honest. - “Humans can actually do that!? I thought it was something that had been made up for effect! He forgets his self consciousness and continues his musings.
Frankly, the discovery delights him and he asks MC to do it all the time. His brother’s reactions to this deeply amuse him as well. Sometimes he’ll also ask you to recreate scenes where the characters crack their joints.
Based on the joint MC cracked, the type of his eagerness/reaction is different.
Satan
“You continue to surprise me, MC, It’s truly fascinating to learn more about you. Can humans crack any of their joints?”
Satan was aware that human bodies could do some thoroughly weird things, (To non-humans) but as to the extent, and what exactly that entailed? That was something he had yet to find out. And, find out he would.
Similar to Levi, he requests for you to crack your joints, though he says it’s “purely for academic interest”
Which is total bullshit, that’s only a part of it. He also actually likes the sound. Not in an “What a nice, soothing sound” kind of way, in a “Oh, that was a neat sound!” kinda way.
He, in turn, starts to share things demons can do with the MC. It becomes a mutually beneficial exchange.
He enjoys that you can easily freak some of his brothers out, Lucifer especially.
It makes him happy to learn more about humans, and specifically about you.
Asmodeus
“MC Dear.” Asmo’s tone is bright and bubbly but his expression reveals the fact that he is desperately trying to keep his composure. “What the fuck was that?”
He was aware that humans had more mobility and flexibility than demons, but many of the things MC did surprised him at first. And he loved watching them move, the fluidity of their movement was always fun and delightful to watch. Especially because MC was the one moving.
But he wasn’t the most knowledgeable about the mechanics of human mobility, and frankly, that impossible (to him) maneuver, accompanied by those cracking sounds was highly alarming,  
His natural instinct was to scream and rush over to them, checking for injuries. But MC seemed perfectly fine!
As long as MC was fine, there was no need for him to fret. But! This was something new they could do.
He would not request them to do it, but he pays attention for it! Hearing the cracking sound and seeing the accompanying movement sends shivers up his spine.
Beelzebub
“MC, you made that noise? Are you okay?”
The severity of his reaction really depends on the context. For example, of the MC cracks their knuckles before getting down to work on something, he’ll just pause, look over them and ask if they’re okay, either non-verbally or verbally. Once he gets confirmation, he’ll nod and continue on his way. This happens every time the MC cracks their knuckles and other “low severity” joints. 
However, if he hugs the MC and cracks their back, he will immediately loosen his hold (but not let go as he does not want to drop them and potentially injure them more) and goes into crisis mode, making sure that MC is not injured and preparing to cast magic or take them to get treated.
Beel’s nature as a protector is extremely evident when this happens. Internally, he is extremely concerned and only the worst case scenario and horrible memories are running through his head.
Externally though, it’s a different story. He’s been through awful situations and does know how to keep his head in them. It doesn’t mean he’s not affected. However, those effects manifest in different ways.
Belphegor
“Ah, I see how it is. Specifically trying to unnerve me are you? Too bad - I  like it. ”
Belphie knows humans can crack their joints. Before, it was something he found genuinely interesting about them, since it’s something both Angels and Demons cannot do.
Now, after everything that’s happened, he still finds it fascinating, but he can’t help but flinch. He knows the difference between a good crack and a bad one, so to say but he can’t help it. Especially if the MC cracks their neck.
He’ll also briefly check on the MC, but not in the same way the others do. Usually he’ll just peer at MC and when he confirms that nothing is wrong he’ll shift his focus, preferring not to dwell on it. 
He also likes to listen in when Satan and Levi talk to the MC about it, when he can. It doesn’t happen a lot, because he’s often asleep and they usually ask the MC in private but when it does he pays rapt attention.
Barbatos
“Ah, yet another new piece of information for me to file away.“
Barbatos is honestly the most chill about it, after the first time. He has seen a lot throughout his life, and just accepts that it is a thing that happens.
The first time though, was different, He genuinely did not know it was a thing. It slipped through the cracks, so to say as he had a lot of other stuff to focus on.
The MC cracks their joints and Barbatos, in a very businesslike manner, proceeds to examine them for injuries, and, finding none, prepares to cast some emergency magic as clearly the injury is internal. Genuinely he is very worried, but pushes it aside to handle things.
After the MC explains things, he calms down. Though his composure was never lost in the first place, relief is visible in his eyes.
He finds great amusement in watching other demons react to the sound and the discovery. He will play little pranks on the others with the MC as long as they’re up for it.
Diavolo
“I never would have guessed! It seems there are more differences between Humans and Demons than initially thought. How wonderful!”
Diavolo did keep his composure when MC cracked their joints in front of him the first time, but he was much more openly concerned than Barbatos was.
“MC, what happened? Are you injured?” Magic sparkling at his fingertips in order to heal or teleport, whatever MC needed.
Once that is cleared up, he will also ask you to crack your joints again. It’s interesting to him, and the more he understands about humans, the closer he gets to his goal. Not to mention, there may be a bit of a personal interest as well. ^J^
He’ll also ask Solomon about it! Sometimes though, he’ll also try to crack his joints, but he never injures himself or overdoes it. It’s more of a way for him to try to be closer to the MC. He just thinks it’s neat, and that it would be neat if he could do it too!
Also, he adds that little tidbit of information to the compiled knowledge on humans he maintains. Asks if there are any more things like that that Humans can do, and the MC can tell him about a multitude of things, such as being double jointed.

hii! could i request the demon bros (+ undateables if u can?) with an ugly MC? not that they're insecure they're just... unattractive. and fine with it, because they have other good qualities O_o thanks in advance!
Are all demons this rude?
Brothers x gn!reader
Warnings: none
Wasn't too clear with the req so I decided to turn it more into comfort/fluff haha
.
You were very much aware that you wren't the most good looking and to be honest, you didn't really care. You knew you were competent and you got things done, so who cares if you weren't the best looking person in the room? Your demon roommates certainly didn't. So what happens when they overhear some overzealous RAD students mouthing off about it?
Lucifer
The cold blooded Pridy McPrideface isn't one to be easily swayed by appearances. What he does find attractive however is the way you hold yourself. Confidence is always sexy and knowing you recognize all your worth and merits are unrelated to physical appearance is a good quality in his books.
You are well aware that people generally tend to gaze over you, so you made a conscious effort to prove yourself as a competent person. When you were first confronted with the 9 most powerful and influential demons in the Devildom, your need to prove your worth and meet their standards only grew.
Lucifer stands out to you as someone who is purely business, which you appreciate. As intimidating as he is, he only ever comments on your performance in class so as long as you pay attention to your work, you don't see yourself facing any of his judgement.
Now, Lucifer is aware that you, as the only human student, are bound to be heavily scrunitised by the majority of the demon population. He is also aware of how ruthless demon society can be, and as a result knows what the small groups of lesser demons are whispering about when you pass by.
Lucifer can't take direct action against the majority of them so he settles with dropping a few 'subtle' hints that he appreciates you and your genuine self
It's not like the pointless snickering behind your back ever bothered you but you have to admit it's pretty sweet of him
Now, it's one thing to let them get away with their mocking sneers, but the second one of them decides to take it a step too far... Attempting to physically harm the exchange student would be considered a direct challenge of Lord Diavolo's vision for the future and surely would be taken care of accordingly.
It's a safe assumption to say that he probably had something to do with the same trembling demon begging for your forgiveness the next day
Mammon
It's almost a surprise that for as incompetent as he may appear, Mammon is actually considered an attractive and charismatic demon. You might not have had the honour of witnessing his 'charm' firsthand, but it's clear he has a rep for a reason.
Congrats! You've reduced the second oldest brother to a simp! He finds literally anything you do attractive, so even if you were ever overly conscious about your appearance, you've got nothing to worry about. He's your biggest hype man, and tolerates absolutely none of the shit these lower ranked demons are giving you.
It frustrates him that you don’t care about it, that you have always shot down his suggestions to go teach them a lesson. Hell, he’s raring to get involved too! Screw being the bigger person, don’t you want to feel the instant gratification that comes with a right hook wiping those smug sneers from their faces?
This is why you’re getting strung up by Lucifer every other day
Anyways, he’ll listen to your pleas for peace when you convince him that you simply don’t value what they have to say about you, but the second they’re stupid enough to take it a step too far, don’t think the threat of Lucifer’s corporal punishment is gonna stop him from kicking some ass
He caught two of them trying to curse your textbooks one day and decided the only way they'd get their lesson is through his fists. Don't worry - Asmo saw too and he's more than happy to usher everyone away to let his older brother take care of the pests
Levi
This poor soul has been starved of touch and affection for the better part of the last century, do you think he cares what you look like? Not that it matters to you anyways… but the sentiment is appreciated. When you get closer it’ll be Levi seeking affirmation from you more often than not actually - please tell him it doesn’t matter if he’s a yucky otaku or not, he should still always love himself >:(
Lots of respect for you for not giving a damn about what others see as unattractive. He knows how it feels to be a social outcast, but he could never stop caring so damn much about what he could be or comparing himself to others (well it’s sort of his job to be jealous, but…)
So when he hears that some delusional classmates of yours have been bad mouthing you behind your back, he’s angry on your behalf. Why did they think it was funny to criticise you for something that did nothing to change your character or capabilities? They were clearly nothing more than cowardly scum that didn’t deserve the light of day.
Imagine their surprise when the tame third born gives them a pointed glare from across the hall. Even a shut-in like him saw nothing he’d ever be envious in them and would gladly make his disdain be known.
Dislikes confrontations and would rather not have to deal with the likes of them but do you really think a rag tag group of lesser demons have it in them to challenge the Grand Admiral of hell’s navy? Would gladly help one of his more eager brothers get away with teaching the trio a lesson.
Satan
He’s said on multiple occasions how he values intelligence and knowledge as much as he does raw power. When you first plopped down into the devildom he saw you as nothing more than a tool to get under Lucifer’s skin. Nothing more, nothing less. It was much easier to tag along when he witnessed just how competent you were, and as your presence slowly started to grow on him, he could admire how hard you worked, paying no attention at all to what anyone would whisper about your outer appearance.
He never really cared about the stupid and pointless gossip they spread about you. He finds it laughable how pathetic these demons are being. They see you, minding your own business and succeeding in your studies, and instead of trying to better themselves they choose to harass you, who they are jealous of, for only some misguided and momentary satisfaction.
You didn’t care either, since your sense of self worth had nothing to do with a stranger’s approval - and now, he can’t help having the same opinion as Lucifer on this but he finds that confidence hot. He doesn’t feel the need to acknowledge them either.
There are times where they get dangerously close to setting him off though - like when they try to take physical action. The leader of the group tried tripping you on the main staircase of the RAD campus and you could’ve sworn he was about to pull out a couple limbs in retaliation if you hadn't stepped out of the way in time. Luckily for everyone involved you only laughed at their attempt to embarrass you as you passed on by. 
Satan has his reputation as a composed gentleman to maintain, it’d be such a waste to throw it all away to get rid of such unrefined filth. That being said… it’s not like he’s gonna stop Mammon from roughing them up a lil, and it's not technically his responsibility to tell the profs that it was actually Belphie who framed them for cheating…
Asmo
Being good looking has always been a curse - take it from the avatar of Lust himself. Can you imagine all the hands that reach for him at the parties wanting him for anything other than his pretty face?
If he’s being honest, he too had once overlooked you simply because of your plain appearance. He was looking for something interesting in the new transfer student, and you definitely didn’t show anything worth remarking at first glance.
He feels terrible about his behaviour back then. He realises how incredibly hypocritical it was for him to lament about how superficial all the attention he ever got was when he also only judged you superficially
Now that he’s able to make amends, it’s really refreshing for him to spend time with you, who doesn’t care for outward appearances anywhere as much as he’d be able to imagine. You just naturally bond over your very very different yet kind of relatable circumstances, leading to the two of you confiding a lot in each other.
Now when it comes to these cute :) Little :) very uninformed group :) trying to feel better about their poor lives by snubbing you in the halls, he finds that pathetic. You clearly aren’t giving them the time of day and all they can do is giggle amongst themselves as you ignore their comments
Asmo decides to be as flippant as he can as he makes his way over to you, giving them a threatening smile as their eyes are naturally drawn to his approaching figure. They blanch, unable to do anything other than stand there in their stupor as he plans out exactly how he’ll make the three of them the laughing stock of the school. 
Who's to say that it was him who was responsible for those embarrassing devilgram posts to be recirculated, or the rumours that led to their eventual rejection from the rest of the student body?
Beel
Compliments and assurances all day round for everyone :). Make sure to give some back in return as well, Beel’s always been such a doll. The only thing he pays attention to when looking at your outward appearance is your health - make sure not to skip meals and get exercise daily! 
Happy for you knowing you’re comfortable with yourself exactly how you are. As long as you’re happy and healthy, who has the right to criticise how you live your life? Beel truly didn’t want to believe there really were some demons going around behind your back at school but here we are. 
I say this every time but Beel is such a sweet and pure guy. The thing is, his kindness really only extends to his brothers and you - he is one of the 7 demon lords of hell, and that's how the general public sees him. Not happy at all about what these lesser demons have been on about. It’s rare for you to see him with a frown on his face, but at school he doesn’t try to hide his displeasure with the group.
He confronts them eventually one day, blunt and in their faces. Not only is it uncomfortably awkward, but terrifying for them as well - there’s a reason a rumour about Beel eating lesser demons that got on his nerves exists. If they have a working head on their shoulders, they would stop.
Would offer to walk your around school everyday like he does with Belphie since he intimidates everyone enough to scare even the idea of trying to talk shit about you out of their skulls.
Might even talk to Lucifer about it because even if you say you don’t mind what others say about you, it can always go too far and when that happens, he can’t promise that he’ll be able to stop any of his brothers from tearing them apart.
Belphie 
He’s always been a brat himself so you wonder why he feels the need to confront you about the ‘bullies’ at RAD. Pretends not to care about it, just slipping in a casual question as you’re studying together. You truly don’t feel self conscious about your appearance and he knows it. What he wants to know about is how far they’ve taken the name calling, since you’ve admitted to feeling a bit bothered by their constant jeers. 
Y’know… physical appearances aren’t really that important to demons… do you even want to know what any of his brothers’ true forms look like? It’s not even comparable to what you humans see as ‘ugly’, so don’t expect any self respecting demon to judge that part of you. Clearly these demons don’t even deserve to be in the same room as you. 
Uses this as another excuse to cling to you even more. What if they were to hurt you this time? Surely letting him rest his head on your lap will warn them from getting too close. Don't worry about what others say, and he'll take care of them some way...
When you aren't looking, he's incredibly petty and mean. The trio finds themselves victims of every single prank you could think of. Thumbtacks left out on their seats and in their shoes, phantom appendages they always seem to trip on, buckets of used mop water strategically placed on top of doorways they pass through…
It doesn’t help the poor demons that Lucifer is supposedly turning a blind eye to the youngest brother’s antics… but that’s neither here nor there. Clearly, they brought this upon themselves.

Honestly I think with a couple of weeks distance from eve of the daleks, the most absurd take from corners of fandom is Still ‘why would Dan think 13′s gay’ because like, i’ll be nice and not use her outfit as evidence because while it’s telling it’s not conclusive, either, and say that Dan met two women who live together in a space ship and are obviously very close, and they’re all on 13′s ship for a short amount of time before they somehow end up in the crimea and Dan finds himself back home during an invasion. 
13 actually comes back for him and asks him if he wants to come join her in a dangerous situation that is obviously a trap to save Yaz. He’s already witnessed ride or die behaviour in episode Two. 
When they do spring the trap (and they are very much aware that’s what they’re doing), when 13 sees Yaz stuck up on that pedestal she Blatantly panics and runs full speed to her, it is also obvious from context that these weird crystal creeps are deliberately taunting 13 with Yaz. That’s the oldest trick in the book for bad guy behaviour lbr, kidnapping the significant other to lure in the hero of the hour and then harming them? 
Nothing has given Dan any indication that they are Not an item. Do I think that he thought they were together at this point? Honestly, no, but the point is that once he looks back upon all this he’ll go ‘...ohhh’. 
The next thing Dan knows after this is being pulled into the time stream because 13 measured the odds in half a second and decided saving Yaz was worth risking both Their lives as well. (ilu Vinder but Yaz was absolutely the pulling factor here). 
We hit episode four and 13 runs off and Yaz is obviously a bit put out by this, and they get got by angels and a ton of stuff happens and they run into the division between their era and the 60′s and they see the doctor get cornered and taken. He has to physically restrain Yaz from accidentally killing herself because she was trying to get to 13 and forgot the barrier was a killer. 
And then they have the years in the past with Yaz and that hologram. And okay, he’s Said what he got from Yaz from that, but the other side of it is that he sees 13 Also express all those emotions towards Yaz, express her care. He knows that 13 was worried and took the time to record a message just in case and leave it with Yaz. My point being, Yaz wasn’t the only one playing her hand here. 
Then, when they do get back and 13 appears before them she Literally Throws Herself In Yaz’s Arms. Yaz literally almost gets pushed over with the force of it, she wobbles. 13′s clinging on tight, and she’s just reunited with a lot of people and Dan knows that because she says so but it’s Yaz she throws herself at. He couldn’t see 13′s face but he could see Yaz’s look of utter relief from his angle. 
My point being... By the time Dan might have had a passing thought of ‘oh... They’re actually together, they really love each other’ everything he’d seen Before then would have actually bolstered that thought and in no way negated it. If i were him, by that point, pretty sure i’d have considered them both an item and that’s not even going into him walking in on them looking like they were about to kiss in the vanquishers.  
Must have been a SHock for him when he twigged they aren’t, actually, together. Might even have been a bit of a shock that Yaz was in denial about it. He clearly has twigged that 13′s deliberately not noticing it, but i think Yaz not being willing to acknowledge it may have been the only part to that that Was a surprise to him. 
point being... Dan has seen More than enough to draw some detailed conclusions and it’s not just from Yaz’s end, either. 13 played her hand to him and she’s barely really interacted with him. Basically, he had Every reason to believe this was requited. Just because we’ve seen yaz and 13 manage to avoid this for two whole seasons doesn’t mean he has, he just has the information from Flux to fill him in and no previous experience to colour his interpretations of it. And what he saw was pretty clear... From both of them.

Hi hi, could you do the character bingo for Silver and/or Ortho please?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ortho Character Opinion Bingo here!
***Standard disclaimer: These are just my personal opinions of the character(s); regardless of what I may think of them, sharing my thoughts is NOT meant to offend or to shame anyone that thinks differently.***
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If Twisted Wonderland had been released a few years earlier, Silver might have been my favorite character. Before butlers/bodyguards, I had a thing for prince/knight types of characters 😂 and well… just look at Silver and tell me he DOESN’T look like one or that he doesn’t give off princely/knightly vibes??? … Exactly, you can’t. Unfortunately Silver just doesn’t catch my interest, and it’s not purely because of my shift in tastes.
He’s kind of in a similar situation as Trey where his baseline personality is subdued to the point where it doesn’t stand out against some of the louder and more colorful personalities of his peers. Silver definitely has personality, but it is easily overshadowed by everyone else (particularly those in his dorm, who all boast very powerful presences). Meanwhile, Silver’s over here falling asleep while standing??? And he’s so pure and trusting in the goodness of others… even when it’s Jamil cringing at the idea of getting emotional with Kalim or Jade suggesting they coerce fairies into making translation bells for them 😂 I guess that’s cute in its own way? It just doesn’t help him make a strong and lasting impression other than making me chuckle a little at how naive and oblivious he can be. Again, if I were younger I know this absolutely would have made me swoon BUT HEY I GUESS I JUST PREFER RAT BASTARDS NOW 😔
Because of his calmer character, it often feels like even when Silver is present on screen that he actually isn’t. Like, I cannot recall a single memorable line from Silver in the recent Fairy Gala: What If event even though the whole point of Silver being present was to act as a mediator between them and the fairies. He did smooth things over between the two sides and yet I don’t recall the specifics of that speech. Mmm… I just hope that episode 7 will give Silver more of an important presence.
Whenever I think of Silver interacting with others, my brain defaults to him telling Sebek to lower his voice or being teased by Lilia. Actually, that’s when I think Silver works best: in that found family dynamic of Diasomnia. What I find to be the most compelling and interesting thing about Silver is how he engages with the rest of Diasomnia. He isn’t related to any of them by blood, and he doesn’t always agree with what they do and say… yet his interactions with them make them all feel like that of a real family. For example, Silver’s always intervening when Sebek gets out of hand, but he’ll also stand by and let Sebek show off because he knows it makes him happy. It’s like watching an older brother indulge his younger one in a hobby or letting the younger one win in a video game. Silver and Lilia are also just great; it’s nice to see such a positive relationship between a non-blood related father and son for a change, and it’s amazingly raw and realistic for Silver to reveal to us that he didn’t take the initial news that he was adopted well. Honestly, that fact alone was more interesting to me than 98% of the rest of his appearances 😂
There’s so many fan theories swirling around about Silver, and I find those infinitely more exciting than what we know of him in canon. Man, imagine if Silver was a prince stolen from a kingdom on the cusp of war (or one that had a rocky relationship) with the Briar Valley??? Or if Silver’s parents accuse Lilia of kidnapping their one and only son and declare war to reclaim him, thinking that Lilia has somehow brainwashed him with fairy magic or something??? Ooh, or those theories about how Silver will have to point his blade at OB Malleus and take him out??? Silver being a dream walker?? Or heck, even the oldest theory about Silver being from the same world as MC? I personally don’t agree with all of those theories, but they’re still very interesting concepts to explore regardless.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m going to get this out of the way now: Cater’s design doesn’t do it for me. His Kim Possible coloration (orange hair, green eyes) is fine, but I don’t understand what’s going on with his hair?? The slanted downward shape of his eyes is cool—it kind of reminds me of Floyd, making them both look laidback and yet somehow also sly. On Cater though, it also distinctly gives him vague… uh, basic fuckboi energy 😭 which I’m NOT here for.
There are two main “faces” to Cater, and I feel completely differently about them. I’m not fond of the superficial side of Cater (but I realize its importance in adding to the complexity of his character). I don’t have anything against peppy, easygoing, or sociable characters, but what really grinds my gears about Cater is his fixation on social media. I’m aware that this likely exists as a coping mechanism and to distract from his true nature, but it still makes him come off as shallow and attention-seeking (and even moreso if Cater is only viewed as he is presented in the main story). The fact that he’s an influencer also doesn’t help him (I’ve mentioned in my Vil Character Opinion Bingo that I don’t like “celebrity” characters because they tend to be in the spotlight). At least Vil is more graceful about his celebrity status; Cater is more of an “attention hog”, consistently seeking selfies and whatever will garner him the most clicks and likes. I think this can make him a good commentary on people in real life rely on social media to feel validated, but that still doesn’t make it less irritating to me when Cater stops a whole scene just to grab a pic with someone. 
I have a bone to pick with the way he speaks. I’m not saying it DOESN’T make sense for someone that’s terminally online to have a looser way of speaking, but I think it sometimes goes way too overboard. This problem is especially magnified in TWST EN, which is littered with much more of the colloquialisms and memes than were ever in the original. Cater is ALWAYS spouting random hashtags, even in the moments that are meant to be emotional, and that completely ruins those scenes for me. Why is Cater unnecessarily saying “#wow” when his dorm leader is having a mental breakdown right in front of him? The original just had Cater expressing shock that Riddle is crying, and that conveyed much more emotional intelligence and empathy than his “#wow” ever did.
The overabundance of misplaced memes and slang is also somewhat contradictory to his true nature. People so often forget that Cater is a lot smarter than he lets on. His familiarity with social media gives him an edge over his peers (do you know how much personal information you can glean on social media profiles????), that’s why Cater goes along with MC and co in episode 2--because he knows who in the student body are most suspicious and who they should investigate. Cater also uses his social intelligence to manipulate others into doing things he doesn’t want to do (such as his Unbirthday Party duties in Heartslabyul). He is extremely intuitive and knows how to navigate social situations so that they play out in his favor. Saying random hashtags in dire scenes does NOT demonstrate any kind of social awareness at all; it only hampers his character and sells Cater as being dumb and unable to read the room. Because of this, JP Cater is far superior to EN Cater in my eyes.
To me, it’s just very clear that Cater was designed to appeal to the younger crowd (especially seeing as what they did with him in the localization), which isn’t necessarily bad, but I think this caused the fandom to focus on the most vapid parts of Cater in their depictions and their views of him. They see Cater and they think “LMAO HE’S JUST LIKE ME FR FR” 😔 but he’s actually a lot deeper than he seems... The more complex aspects of Cater are what I enjoy the most about him, so it’s really a shame that it gets overlooked so much.
I find that even when people acknowledge that Cater is actually lonely and depressed, that acknowledgement is on a superficial level. “Cater’s secretly sad” is the full extent of a lot of what I see about him. I don’t see a lot of people really going in on why that is. Of course, mental health is a very complicated topic and there is never really one true “cause” of a condition like Cater’s, but rather the cumulative effects of many factors. I just wish people would not make it out to be quite so simple. There’s a method to that madness, there’s a reason why Cater is so social media obsessed, there’s an explanation for why he’s so cheery. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I CAN’T BLAME ANYONE FOR NOT SEEING BEYOND THAT FACADE, because Cater hides his sadness so well and intentionally wants to be perceived as shallow so no one bothers looking deeper and seeing his true self. That’s such a nuanced take on this type of a character, IT’S JUST SO GOOD HHNNNNGNGGHGHHGHHHH... It’s really too bad that we only get to see that shallow persona of his most of the time he’s on-screen, because I think actually exploring Cater’s cover-up behavior would be so interesting.

hello there. so there's my request - could you please make a big sagau headcanon list of what would it be like to date(or be in long term relationship with) venti or zhongli(reader is really loyal and in awe of them). you can do both, if you would like to do so. it's just that i would like to see longer list so i'm okay with you choosing one of them x3
A LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM
this. i like this. i sorted them by aspect of relationships,i did both because a flip of a coin said so (plus, i wanted to get out of my comfort zone and write for other characters and i love Zhongli, and i know first hand what it’s like ;) so it was either Zhongli or do both hihi.) i hope this was to your liking and was a long enough list! 
includes : zhongli and venti 
cw : pure fluff except a mention of obssessive behavior on venti’s part
sypnosis : how does it feel to be in a long term relationship with two of your oldest and most loyal acolytes? 
work under the cut! 
Tumblr media
ZHONGLI 
HOW DOES HE SHOW LOVE?
Zhongli has mastered all love languages, you can’t ever change my mind.
Quality time - 10. Physical affection - 10. Acts of service - 10. Gift giving - 10. Affirmation - 10.  
Quality time would consist of doing things you thoroughly enjoy! He might introduce you to some other things related to your hobbies that you’ll also enjoy and that he also likes so you two could spend more time together away from all the other jealous acolytes. 
Touch based includes more hand-holding than hugs. As a divine being, he figures you’re way too sacred for him to hold, so he either asks permission or you tell him to. In the context of fluffiness since I’m trying to avoid angst on this, he’s always shying away whenever you try to pull him closer to you because he’s flustered. 
Acts of service consist of massages, lots and lots of food (tea is a common one) and plenty of scooching away to do things for you when you can do it yourself. (Refurbishing your teapot would be a good example) 
Words of affirmation, hm. Now this, he absolutely excels in this department. 
Praise is everywhere to be given to you, you’re his god! With worship, comes praise and it’s a given that everywhere you go, he’ll never fail to remind you that you are enough (and i revel in that fact). 
Gift giving? As this is the SAGAU, this is an absolute given. Of course, there’ll be the expensive stuff, Noctilucous Jade, Cor Lapis, yada yada. He will of course ask if you have any preferences and acquire them immediately. (You like hot chocolate? He gets batches of them and always brews them when you’re feeling down in the dumps.) 
WHAT’S YOUR DYNAMIC?
Possible dynamics between you two would be that he’s the one getting you out of trouble, or you two are peas in a pod and enjoy talking or babbling about things others find boring or you two are simply two crackheads who are dumb because he forgets his mora. 
In the case that you’re very loyal to him, I figure that follower and the person being followed also seems rather fitting but not in the sense that it’s religious, more adoring and similar to the way you’d have a crush or an idol.
He’s going to be flustered whenever you’re shy around him so it just gets really cute and you’re both shy and it’s just UGH. 
HOW DO YOU TWO DEAL WITH PROBLEMS? 
You guys talk it out. He’s an easy person to talk to and he’s very attentive and listens well. 
Adding onto the point that he’s very attentive, he’ll probably confront you rather than you to him because of that, so it doesn’t get messy or out of hand. 
In the case that you ever get angry, he’s always willing to let you take it out on him. He’s really nice like that and he knows you’d never go to the extremes. 
He’s never gonna get angry at you. 
I swear, you’re his god for heavens sake, he couldn’t get mad at you! Least he will do is act like a saddened child or a disappointed puppy.
OTHER THINGS THAT HAPPEN
He’s cautious to act like you two are married but it slips in private away from the rest of the acolytes’ eyes. (this eventually brings up the point of getting married in the future) 
You two probably have a routine and part of it is a small separation. During that time he’s either pining for you or figuring out how to make your return to him really good because you’re usually off entertaining your other acolytes if you aren’t with him. 
Tumblr media
VENTI
HOW DOES HE SHOW LOVE?
Venti’s adept with majority of the love languages. It just gets a bit chaotic and goes the wrong way on some others. 
Quality time - 9. Physical affection - 10. Acts of service - 8. Gift giving - 9. Affirmation - 9. 
I’ll explain why acts of service is the lowest. Sometimes his acts of service tend to get out of hand and he may or may not piss you off unintentionally (it’s all part of your dynamic, so don’t worry!). A good example is when he tries to cheer you up when you’re down in the dumps by playing one of the meme songs you introduced to him on his lyre. (it’s funny but you don’t particularly need it right now)
Quality time, he’s most likely to take you around everywhere in Mondstadt and follow you around to Liyue and Inazuma as much as Ei and Morax aren’t as happy with the idea. Quality time may get chaotic that you two will have to face some consequences from the more over-protective acolytes ( cough Zhongli) but its fun! 
Gift giving, there’s the usual, “here have the finest things from my nation!” archon routine, but there’s also giving unusual gifts with meanings you can’t decipher. He’d find a oddly shaped hashbrown and say “this reminded me of you, Your Grace! Please eat it!” (it was delicious) 
Affirmation, he gets a bit teasing that it sort of gets out of hand. Being the mischief doer he is, he might push your buttons but he’ll always redeem himself afterwards with hugs and affection and sweet, sweet praise.
Touch based, he’s bound to be very clingy to the point it also gets out of hand (he’s borderline, lowkey obsessive). There’s been a good amount of times you nearly fell while he was holding on to your arm.
WHAT’S YOUR DYNAMIC?
You get him out of trouble, you two are crackheads, or you two are friendly rivals who clash against each other teasingly.
In the case that you’re really loyal to him, you’d be partners in crime. He’d take you on little escapade to get some of that good dandelion wine and you two would have to run away from Diluc’s and Jean’s scolding. 
He’s slightly hesitant to accept your loyalty and adoration to him, but he takes it. It works out well in the end and he makes use of it to tease you. 
HOW DO YOU TWO DEAL WITH PROBLEMS?
You’d have to confront him no matter what. Venti’s a slight airhead, imo. He’s usually waving off things and you’d have to be direct with him if you want him to fix something. 
When you do confront him, he’s always gonna listen, and he’s always gonna be beating himself up for being the problem and do better. He really loves you though, so he revels in the fact that you’re happy when he does fix something and that brings his ego right back up. 
He has ZERO problems with you. We’re in the SAGAU, so no one questions you, at all. 
They’re all just sad or jealous cats and puppies I tell you.
OTHER THINGS THAT HAPPEN
Exact opposite of Zhongli and acts like you two are married. Doesn’t give a fuck that the other acolytes are there scolding him or glaring at him. 
Getting married wasn’t really a thought that crossed his mind and he’s happy as is. If ever you do bring it up to him, he’ll certainly be overjoyed. 
Steals you away from every acolyte. He has his turn as always but there’s privileges to being in a long term relationship with you, and the acolytes can’t do anything but to concede.

any dad!levi hcs for father’s day today🥺🤲🏽
Absolutely!! I’ll do this I guess using the kids I have for him in my parent au? If you’ve read that, you know about Holden, but there are two more so prepare to meet them :’) happy father’s day to Levi <33
To begin with, you guys would plan to have your kids (to the best of your abilities; you were intentionally trying to have kids at a time when you both knew you were ready for them. 
Although accidents to do happen, and Levi would welcome an unplanned child all the same; that being said, if you’re both want a family, you would have discussed it beforehand (which is to a degree, is a lot about mental preparation for himself). 
In his perfect world, he’d have two daughters. They’d be equal parts him and you, and they’d be quiet and curious and lovely and life would be good. He’d spend his days with you and his two tiny daughters, raising his little family and doing all he could for his favorite girls. 
So, naturally, he does get two daughters, but also a son in between; and the latter two kids are far from easy in their own unique ways lmfao 
You might have already met Holden, and she’s the oldest in my dad Levi au, and the most like him. Levi’s dark hair, his grey eyes, his overall unimpressed visage, his knack for cleanliness and organization—down to the way she holds her sippy cups, she’s damn near Levi’s doppleganger. 
Holden is somewhere between 3.5-4 years old before you have your second kid, and in that time is when Levi confirms he thinks he was cut out to be a certified Girl Dad. 
Both Levi and Holden take quality father-daughter time very seriously. It’s impossible to change plans once they’re set: “Daddy, you promised we would go to the famer’s market on Sunday. You pinky promised.” And Levi wouldn’t dare break a pinky promise, so he makes time for it. 
Levi doesn’t play favorites with his kids, but there is something special about Holden as his first born. He’s constantly in awe of just how much she resembles him. Four years into raising her and it’s still hard to wrap his head around. 
Much to his chagrin, Hange and Eren are Holden’s favorite adults. Maybe Levi understands the admiration for Hange, but Eren... come on, Holden, you’re breaking his heart at that point. 
It’s almost out of character for your daughter to be so openly affectionate about someone outside of your immediate family, but she really loves having Eren as a babysitter; and you know she’s playing favorites, because she remains neutral on Armin, even though he and Eren always babysit as a duo. 
She doesn’t have a favorite grandparent, but Kenny spoils her the most. Levi tells him he shouldn’t, but when has Kenny ever listened to Levi. The man isn’t a fan of kids, but he thinks yours and Levi’s are pretty cool, and Holden is about the coolest 4 year old he could ever meet. 
When she was learning to walk, Levi’s favorite thing was holding her little hand and guiding her around. Even now, when she can stand perfectly fine on her own two feet, Levi loves it when she reaches for his hand; Holden is a pretty independent kid, even at 4 years old, so Levi never takes affection from her for granted. 
They’re best friends and Holden goes everywhere with him. Their favorite father-daughter activity is going to the grocery store, and Levi lets Holden point to and assess her favorite fruits and veggies while she sits happily in the shopping cart. 
Sometimes there are other parents struggling with a kid throwing a temper tantrum. Levi simply clicks his teeth, while Holden shakes her little head. “That’s pretty embarassing, daddy,” she says, looking at the poor parent with an unamused glare that rivals Levi’s. He nods and pushes the cart past the scene, “Tell me about it, kid.” 
Your second kid is a boy, and he looks more like you than Levi, but manages to have Levi’s signature hair color and pout when things aren’t going his way.
He comes as a shock to both you and Levi, because after your ultrasound, you were told you were having another girl. Turns out, they’d accidentally mixed up your files, and you were having a boy instead, which you do not find out until your mid-term check up a few months later. Cue Levi buffering like an old computer. 
Kiaan is welcomed all the same, even tho Levi is still in disbelief; he was mentally preparing to have another daughter on his hands. He puts more pressure on himself with his son; not that he wasn’t trying his best to be a parent to Holden, but any insecurities he might have about being a good come out when your son is born, because Levi has no “man of the house” example to follow from. 
You reassure him that your son will turn out to be just fine, and raising him the way you raised Holden, and would have raised another daughter is perfectly acceptable. Of course Levi rises to the occasion after the initial shock; he’s determined to be the dad to his son that he never had. 
Where Holden is more reserved, Kiaan likes to talk and babble about anything whenever and wherever he can, to whoever is around. It’s not uncommon for you or Levi to find your son completely entertained by telling a story out loud to himself while playing with his toys.
Loves to rope Levi into making his toys interact and have “conversations” with each other, and Kiaan genuinely thinks his dad is hilarious, even if he doesn’t completely understand what he’s saying. It always makes Levi smile to hear Kiaan try and copy the bass and tone of his voice when he’s mocking him. 
Kiaan loves messing with his dad, and Levi’s all talk, so of course he lets him. He’ll be on a Zoom meeting for work, and Kiaan will be sat in his lap, running little toy cars across the desk in front of him, or tugging on Levi’s hair, and Levi just lets him. It makes quite the cute sight, and Hange has definitely taken a few screen recordings. 
That being said, your son is more of a mama’s boy than anything. Kiaan loves messing with Levi, but if you’re in the room, there’s a 95% chance he’ll be on your lap or at your side shadowing whatever you’re doing. 
Kiaan is a universal copycat tho, so whatever you, Levi, or Holden say or do, he tries for himself. This makes him especially susceptible to repeating Levi’s foul language and bad habits than Holden. (“Kiaan, you can’t sleep on the chair, it’s not good for your back.” “But daddy sleeps on the chairs sometimes!” “...Alright kid, you got me there.”) 
He’s a very loving kid with his words, too, always thanking people and proclaiming his love, so he doesn’t exactly have a “favorite” adult or babysitter, but he does get particularly excited when Erwin or Farlan come around. He feels especially tall when Erwin lets him sit on his shoulders, and Farlan always entertains his story-telling. 
He’s a sucker for his grandma though, and gives Kuchel a million kisses whenever she comes around. Does not let go over her for the entire time she’s over at your house, and will sit on her lap throughout dinner. 
The most affectionate child, so where Holden only likes holding hands, Kiaan loves cuddling with you and Levi, and likes to be held whenever possible. Levi spoils him a little too much, and more often than not, if you’re walking outside for more than two hours, Kiaan will end up on Levi’s shoulders or in your arms. 
Your last kid is another girl, and, yeah she’s just a baby no older than a few months, but Levi can’t help but think she’s especially tiny, and he can’t help but to look at her and hold her whenever possible. Your baby girl also leaves Levi a little dumbstruck because she manages to look like a combination of you and his mother. 
As she grows, it becomes apparent that you’ve got another daddy’s girl on your hands. Doesn’t matter if you’re literally breast feeding her, Aria will throw a tantrum if she’s separated from Levi for more than an hour. 
The good news is, her sleep cycle is as irregular as Levi’s, so he’s got someone to keep him company when everyone else has gone to bed for the evening. Unfortunately, this also means Aria naps a lot during the day, which leaves Levi a little bored since Holden is old enough to be in school full-time, and Kiaan is gone for at least a portion of the day. 
So, he would never tell you, but sometimes he wakes Aria up from her naps just a little bit early to spend more time with her (and cure his boredom). Having an infant trying to grab at his hair with her ravioli sized baby fists while he tries to cook lunch certainly makes the task more difficult, but it also adds welcomed color to his day.
You and Levi have to hold Aria constantly when she’s awake or else she’ll cry (although, if you leave her in the arms of her siblings, she does settle down, too); that, or she’ll find her tiny baby hands somewhere they shouldn’t be. Like dipped in a jar of strawberry jam. Or peanut butter. Or both. 
Levi talks to his kids like he would any other adult, so it’s not uncommon to find him brewing tea with a baby strapped to his chest, narrating the steps to good tea-making out loud to her for her to hear. He swears she can understand him, and he attributes Holden and Kiaan’s growing vocabularies, and the early ages at which they started speaking to this. 
Aria will be in her little chest strap thing while Levi’s cooking dinner, and he’ll look down at her like, “Alright, we’re gonna julienne your carrots today. Yesterday we cubed them, but you’ve got grabby hands, so this will give you more room to work with.”
Kiaan loves holding Aria and honestly just being around her, and you and Levi think it’s adorable how he loves to play with her, and how he knows to be gentle with her. He shares a room with her, and loves sharing his bedtime story times, so you or Levi will read them to sleep together. 
Holden isn’t crazy about babies, but she’s a good older sister, and Aria seems to be obsessed with her. She crawls and scoots towards her if given the opportunity, and Holden will always look to you or Levi before attempting to hold or lift her up, as if asking permission. She’ll pat Aria’s head to get her to stop crying, or let her play with her hands. 
Levi thinks one of the best parts about being a dad is seeing the different dynamics and relationships between your kids. Holden isn’t most physically or verbally affectionate, but she’s still compassionate, and Kiaan looks up to her; and Kiaan is the perfect middle ground, knowing when it’s appropriate to bother (affectionate) Holden, and when to give her space, and curiously hovers around his baby sister, too.

Under the Floorboards
(Technoblade x Reader) link to Pt. II :)
Tumblr media
Picking up a bundle of wood you let out a soft breath, you watched as it escaped out your lips in front of you in a small cloud. Trudging through the snow you made your way back to your house, well it wasn’t really your house. A few months ago you ran into Technoblade while he was searching for a new home far away from this place called L’manburg; he told you he was in retirement and was surprised to find another person all the way out here. As a wandering adventurer, you eventually won him over with your charm, wit, and humor.
That was a joke of course.
You both started a mutual trade agreement, on your way back from the adventures you’d always take a pit stop at his place so he could see if you had anything worth trading. It started slow, he realized you would come back very late at night, and very weary. He offered you to stay the night once, then once turned into twice and before you knew it you began to stay at his place after every late-night adventure. As you spent more time together he helped you become a better fighter, and farmer and you helped him learn social skills and how to cook food that wasn’t steak.
He never told you about his time in the country of L’manburg or why he was in retirement in the first place but you didn’t mind. Everyone has their secrets and even if both of you were considered friends at this point you never pried. Not even when you’d catch him mumbling to himself about chat, or the bloodthirsty look in his eyes after he killed an animal. You kept your mouth shut out of respect, you could tell he appreciated the gesture.
You earned yourself a friendship emerald after he introduced you to his oldest friend Philza, the man treated you like you were his family. It made you feel wanted and welcome, Techno had a little smile on his face the entire interaction as the both of you bonded. In his mind he was ecstatic his two favorite people were getting along. Techno walked Philza out of the house and returned holding an emerald out to you, you knew how valuable these emerald were to him. You were in such shock and awe you almost started crying which caused him to panic.
“I’ll treasure it with my life.” You told him kissing said emerald gently, blush spread across his pale face to his pointed ears.
“I’m glad.” He rubbed the back of his neck, “Chat- chat stop I’m not simp.” You heard him whisper hiss softly but you ignored it, choosing to smile at him instead. He noticed and his blush only deepened. You took his hand, it was so small intertwined in his own, and squeezed it softly.
Eventually, the both of you grew closer than just friends which understandably scared the half pigman to death. You caught him mumbling to himself more frequently, especially when you both were out fighting monsters and gaining experience.
Things like: “I’m not a simp” and “Calm down I’m gonna protect her” as well as “I can’t just say that!” Were very frequent mumblings of his, your brow furrowed and after fighting a baby zombie you turned towards him,
“Hey Technoblade you doing okay?”
“Yes!” He sputtered out reassuring you that he was just fine by saving you from a Skeleton.
You two watched the sunset that same day from on top of a snowy mountain and he confessed to you. The confession was a bit rough around the edges but then again so was he, so to you, it was perfect. You took his hands to get him to stop rambling and kissed his knuckles. He made an embarrassed sound and looked away from you, you cooed teasingly at him and accepted. From then on you both were attached at the hip, well as attached as he’d let you be there was still that level of awkwardness that came with any new relationships but it was wonderful. You’d both spent hours by the fireside as he read to you, you’d help him care for Carl and get enchanted books all the while you were in awe of this magnificent and mysterious man before you.
Shaking your head smiling to yourself you trudged back to his house, the emerald around your neck bounced in tandem with your steps. Technoblade never liked leaving you alone, you reminded him constantly that you had a life before he was in it but he still seemed to be on edge. You figured it had something to do with his past so you did your best to reassure him that you’d be safe when he was away; Techo seemed to appreciate your efforts at least. Whenever he got back from what you assumed was visiting Phil (after all, Carl was gone), you were going to run him a bath and braid his hair the way he liked. Maybe you’d make him a nice dinner then you’d both fall asleep together while reading. It’d earn you some soft kisses and snuggles later, you giggled to yourself as you put away the wood. If you told anyone else this giant of a man, who you’ve seen wipe out hordes of monsters like it was nothing, loves to be cuddled at night they’d call you insane.
You wandered down into the basement to feed his cow but the sound of a blocks-breaking startled you out of your daydream. You whipped around pulling out your sword in the way Technoblade showed you and came face to face with a blonde child peeking out from the floorboards.
“What the FUCK?!” You both shrieked at one another, he moved to try and scramble back down the hole. You followed him down his ladder, you weren’t going to let this child get away with living under your boyfriends’ house so easily. You backed him into a corner and took note of his beat-up appearance and his attempts to look brave as he held up his hands. Sweat gathered on his brow but you didn’t let your guard down, before you could open your mouth to question him he began to talk so fast and loud you could barely keep up.
“OI, OI, OI, OI! LADY, LADY, LADY, CALM DOWNNNN CALM DOWN! SEE, SEE WE’RE BOTH IN TROUBLE CAUSE WE’RE BOTH STEALING- BORROWING FROM THE BLADE! THE BLADE KNOWS ME! I AM HIS LITTLE BROTHER, TOMMY, I AM SURE YOU’VE HEARD OF ME! THEREFOR I’M NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG. YOU-YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND, ARE A STRANGER! YOU KNOW HE’S A BLOOD GOD RIGHT? HE’LL ABSOLUTELY KILL YOU, BUT BUT! IF WE KEEP THIS BETWEEN US I WON’T HAVE TO TELL HIM ANYTHING AT ALL FAIR? SEEMS FAIR TO ME-”
You reached your hand out to cover his mouth, your eyes narrowed into slits, “Start again. Softer and slower. Techno never told me he had a brother.” You watched the eyes of the blonde widen in surprise, assumingly at the notion that you already knew Technoblade. Slowly you removed your hand from his mouth but didn’t lower your guard. He cleared his throat, swallowing tentatively.
“I’m Tommy. We’re not related by blood- who ARE you?” he pressed still completely baffled at the appearance of a GIRL who knew Technoblade. Before you could even respond to him he let out another baffled cry. “DOES HE SIMP FOR YOU!?” He shrieked pointing at you as he waved his finger around. “THERE’S NO WAY- HE DOES HOLY SHIT!” Tommy laughed as you blinked rapidly, how was he able to read all that without you even saying anything? You were trying to process who this kid was while also being stuck on the blood god thing. You felt Tommy’s arm around your shoulders suddenly as he pulled you close. “Well, Miss Blade now that we know who you are maybe we can strike a deal-“
“Absolutely Not.”
“HEY! Come on now.” Tommy whined loudly, “I need your help here! Look I’m sure you know why he’s in hiding and all...and well...I might’ve pissed the same people off and-”
“Actually no. I didn’t know that…” You spoke softly deflating a little, “He’s in hiding? From who exactly.”
A look of shock came across Tommy’s face, “You mean...you don’t know? Like about L’manburg and his betrayal.”
“Does it sound like I know? Look Tommy you seem like a nice kid really, but you need to leave-”
“Nonononnonononono. Look it’s fine, I’ve been living here for weeks now-”
“WEEKS?” You snarled a pink flush coming to your cheeks, you grabbed the boy’s arm and began to drag him up the ladders in Techno’s house. Hee was going to kill you like actually this time. You were about to throw open the door but it swung open in front of you. Techno was standing there completely bruised and bloody and you immediately dropped Tommy in favor of him.
“Oh my god Techno what happened?” You breathed out a worried breath he was about to respond before he noticed Tommy. He grabbed you by the arm and pushed you behind him guarding you with his body.
“Tommy.” He snarled as the boy once again shrieked and booked it back down the ladder Techno turned towards you, “Stay here.” Technoblade commanded you softly the look in his eyes could only be described as desperate. “Don’t leave. Please.”
“I won’t…” You murmured watching him disappear after the British boy, you hoped he was going to explain everything to you after he dealt with the raccoon. You could hear them shouting from down below you, you couldn’t push it off any longer you needed to get answers from him.
