woolsey and woolsey but pepeshi

- what? never seen a pepeshi at work?

[littlekiara96]

Okay, you wanna know what is weird as hell?

No one is talking about Woolsey.

How is it possible?

I know he's just an NPC, but come on. Look at him.

Finest Bloodhound out there (except for Gallagher).

[shamblessm]

no one noticing my boy Woolsey 😭😭😭 king you were done so dirty they gave u all that melanin muscle and a nice goatee and a pair of sunglasses to make u hot and they put u in npc jail

[rubywolf0201]

I’ll be honest I didn’t really care for Lighter at first mostly because of how guys in Hoyo games don’t get the same treatment as the females does and also partially out of fear that he will suffer the same fate like Woolsey in HSR did in that he’s a well designed character stuck in NPC hell.

But after Tour de Inferno came out, his backstory partially revealed in it, him being announced as a playable, voiced by Aleks Le and his Agent Story art being the hottest thing I’ve ever seen.

He became an instant favourite of mine.

[shamblessm]

EDIT: I MIXED UP NEKOMATA AND CANDACE'S SKINTONES! The bottom-left gradient chart has them correct, but the one on the top had them mixed up because I reordered them by value. Sorry about that!

I was working on a bigger skintone chart but I noticed something very... concerning.

Woolsey is the darkest character in all of Hoyoverse - A MINOR NPC. So here's a smaller chart.

I love Woolsey to bits and he's my favorite character so far, but it's not fair that a NPC that people have only seen like once or twice with like 5 voicelines get more melanin than *anyone else*.

I'm not sure if I'll finish the expanded chart today (which includes all Natlan and Sumeru characters minus Wanderer, plus more NPCs), but I just needed to throw this out there because... something about this feels really bad. Anyone else is free to make a similar chart.

I just don't know what to say. Feel free to add more to this thread, such as NPCs with darker skintones.

⚶ Here we offer:

A LGBTQIA+ friendly community. We are here to drool over men, after all!

A growing community for everyone!

Shrine & art channels for NPCs such as Wagner, Cyrus, The Eremites, Woolsey, Oleg, Yhan (the Wuthering Waves NPC) and more!

Did we mention we appreciate the male NPCs?

We hope to see you soon! ...or maybe you would like to join now?

Gallagher x Woolsey (GallaWool) Headcanons 🐺🥃

⚠️ MINORS BEWARE: NSFW headcanons under the cut! ⚠️

🔁 Reblogs appreciated so people can realize this ship's potential!

Please share your headcanons in the reblogs or replies 🥺 Need more Woolsey enjoyers.. sigh

SFW headcanons:

Gallagher is the "sub" of the relationship. He's clingy towards Woolsey and he likes to treat Woolsey (like meals and stuff).

Woolsey does like being treated this way by Gallagher, but he's rather shy and doesn't know how to reciprocate his feelings so he ends up being a blushing mess.

Likewise, Woolsey is the "dom". He's the protective big guy. In fact, he's the one that promoted Gallagher to a real Bloodhound Family member.

Despite their dynamic, they still care for eachother. If Woolsey was in a tight spot, Gallagher will use his glowing claw immediately on the threat.

Gallagher forgets Woolsey's not a sweet tooth. Imagine how awkward it is if Gallagher tried to give him chocolate... now who will eat it?

Is Gallagher fake? Yes. Does Woolsey care? No! Despite being basically 1/52 of Gallagher's blueprint, Woolsey sees him more as than just that. He doesn't care that he's just a dream creature - he already practically lives in the Dreamscape, his job needs him to. But if he could find a way to make Gallagher a real entity, he would.

⚠️⚠️ NSFW HEADCANONS BELOW ⚠️⚠️

NSFW Headcanons 😈

Pet play. Gallagher's the pet of course. Woolsey can, and WILL call him a pup, or any other variations of the word. They're BloodHOUNDS, after all.

Gallagher almost exclusively bottoms. The only time he tops is if he's really, really, REALLY itching for Woolsey (he goes hard), or if Woolsey lets him (service top).

Woolsey once "punished" Gallagher for being a fake Hound ifyouknowwhatImean. UGH YES BITCH PUNISH THAT FAKE HOUND. I mean... I wrote a fic about it on AO3... (WARNING! It does have 'enforcement punishment' themes so SORRY IF YOU'RE UNCOMFORTABLE! I tried to make it a happy ending and made it so that Gallagher realized he had it coming.) I made this headcanon before I asked a friend to make a SFW fanfic where Woolsey promotes Gallagher to a real hound, so I'm just gonna think that they like to roleplay this scenario after promotion. And honestly? Before I shipped them I always kept seeing GallaWool NSFW (often times Woolsey is untagged). It makes me feel mixed because yes, they ARE hot, but also... can we have SFW stuff too?

Woolsey will just tease you for even glaring at his tits (i mean come on... those buttons are STRUGGLING!!)

HANDCUFFS!!! YAY!!!!!!

Idk I just need people to see the potential GallaWool has...

[shamblessm]

Woolsey gets a shirtless alt

THANK YOU FOR THE FOOD.

- Sunday awakens to discover himself a miniature denizen of his own model city - he looks up to see a huge other self gazing back

- Aventurine’s boss form shows up and reveals that underneath the mask - it’s Misha!!!!

- Black Swan will end the patch by witnessing a horror incomprehensible (Jade) and will begin crying and shaking - Furina singing causes her brother to repent

- Aventurine will cockblock Acheron and Black Swan from kissing by holding up a straight pride flag

- Dan Heng is gonna one shot Sunday and then make out with Boothill on his grave

- Gallagher will receive a boss form (even less clean shaven)

- Firefly reveals SAM’s evolved form - The Lightning Lord (that’s why Jing Yuan’s here)

- Upon meeting Firefly, March 7th obtains a new form (also a robot)

- Himeko ceases to be a functioning alcoholic

- Welt finally reveals the shotgun (in his cane) and shoots Sunday

- Robin is Siobhan - Everyone is saved as Dr Ratio cracks the dream formula and faces off against Silver Wolf to hack (calculate) reality - Woolsey gets a shirtless alt - Trailblazer acquires a new form - the path of Harmony, in which their weapon is a giant tuning fork (like N-Tropy from crash bandicoot) - Charlie Chaplin esque car chase scene !!!

⚠️ CW: SHIP PREFERENCES/OPINIONS. ⚠️

OPINIONATED COMMENT UNDER THE CUT. DNI IF YOU'RE GOING TO HARRASS ME OVER THIS.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

I had a thought and I was like "muting posts is so cool but what if we get notifs for keywords in posts or at least put them in the timeline"

like thatd be so fucking cool bc gallagher rarepair enjoyers are so starved

and so I took a look and hey, wouldnt you know, GallaWelt is rare even though people like old man yaoi

but then i looked up ga11ah!ll and i was like ?!?!?!?!?!?!? THAT'S NOT A FUCKING RAREPAIR??!? At least gallawelt is old man yaoi so that's clearly one of the reasons why people ship them, but Ga11ah!ll? Sure,... but what's their dynamic?? I'm so lost??? I thought it was just like a couple people in the sea of Galladay shippers???

especially doesnt help that i, a person currently facing religious trauma, do NOT like Ga11ad@y. AT ALL. Like if you like the ship? Fine, whatever, Jesus/Judas or Angel/Devil dynamic, cool, but to me? That's cult leader x cult critic. Even if you argue that hey, Sunday was raised by Gopher Wood to be basically a zealot, it still rubs me the wrong way, so I mute and move

That said, i dont mind people shipping galla with welt/boothill/sunday and thats all fine, i just wish more people heard me out on gallawool, you know

LIKE.

IT'S RIGHT THERE!

Listen. Gallagher poses as a Security Officer of the Bloodhound Family right?? Even Sunday pointed it out, he even pointed out the fact that the scars are from Woolsey. Sure you could also say that he took Benny and Sir Whittaker's features and sure pop off girl but rn his "major" facade is a security officer (aside from the bartending) so please please PLEASE JUST FUCKING HEAR ME OUT. HE EVEN HAS INVERTED COLORS OF WOOLSEY'S VEST. YOU KNOW WHO ELSE HAS A HOUND BADGE AT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEST'S LAPEL? WOOLSEY.

And like. Okay. You see where I'm going?

FAKE COP X REAL COP.

PLEASE.

It doesn't fucking help that pretty much a good amount of GallaWool artworks (which are rare enough already) are NSFW. Yes I know they're hot but even so it's usually that Woolsey's untagged, partially drawn, and/or out of frame completely. UGHFDF. Like yes I know!! Gallagher's practically a bottom and he deserves to be punished for being a fake Bloodhound but there can be ways to draw them fairly and also SFW ways to think about the ship too!!!! It's not always horny time yknow? Like there's so many fucking SFW ways to think of them!! There's minors who like these characters too!!

Woolsey promoting Gallagher, Gallagher leaving Penacony angst and gives his glowing scar+claw powers to Woolsey, the two having sweet SFW lovey dovey fluff moments, YOU NAME IT!!

The takeaway is that I'M TIRED OF STARVINGGGGGGG PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE JUST HEAR ME OUT

BEING THE CEO OF A RAREPAIR LET ALONE A #1 FAN OF AN NPC SUCKS SOF CUKIGN FJDSFHSDHGW5GU23UB34 WHY DO I LIKE MUSCULAR BEARDED MEN AND NOT PASTY PAPER #FFFFFF WHITE TWINKS😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[shamblessm]

In the place where he patrols, in The Reverie, near the Clockie Tower, on the Dreampool, in the Herta Space Station, in the Simulated Universe, in the Goethe Hotel, in the Ambrosial Arbor's roots, in the Dream's Edge, inside Oti Mall, upside-down in A Child's Play, inside Firefly's secret base, while in a Bubble Pinball machine, inside a Hanu's Prison Break puzzle, on a balcony in Dream's Edge, until everyone in Penacony wakes up due to the noise, until the Dreampool is filled with cum, until the Astral Express hears our extremely loud noises, in the Astral Express, inside a Dream Bubble, until The Reverie's Dreamscape has been renovated, inside a trash can, in a phone booth, until a new head hound has to be hired due to his unavailability, until he has been banned from the Dreamscape 😘💋

[shamblessm]

WAIT SO YOU KNOW HOW AFTER THE 2.3 QUEST MICAH SAYS THAT GALLAGHER IS NERVOUS ??? AND HE'D CAREFULLY THINK HIS WORDS??

NEW GALLAGHER X WOOLSEY (GALLAWOOL) HEADCANON: GALLAGHER ASKS MICAH TO HELP HIM WITH HIS PICK UP LINES

please guys what would i have to do to have y'all hear me out on this ship (woolsey is the npc you talk to for aideen tokens he is also one of 52 family members gallagher borrows traits from)

[shamblessm]

I WANNA STAY WHERE WOOLSEY IS PLEASE PLEASPLPAELAPSL PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

What if, instead of going to another planet, I stayed here forever? With Mikhail? With Micah, Siobhan and Cocona?
