#i'm not immune to awkward child interactions

[meanbossart]

His biggest crime: bald-faced lying to a child.

[fractiflos]

Any sShinomori headcanons? ^^' I'm open to hear your thoughts on this guy

I have a lot for him too.

He likes turtles.

Idk how unpopular this opinion is, but I headcanon him with a farmer mentality towards animals. Like, yep, I will make sure these creatures are safe and healthy, but I will also eat some of them.

Speaking of which, I like to think that his family were farmers.

He prefers things plain. Like, plain food, plain clothes etc. Not a lot of need nor want for extravagance.

When he was younger, he did a lot of camping and already had some experience with the woods.

He prefers novels over the manga Yoichi likes, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like it when Yoichi reads to him. (I also headcanon Yoichi read to him).

Less of a headcanon, but I think he would look good with glasses. He should wear some.

Because of danger sense and his general demeanor, I headcanon that he's totally fine in a life-or-death situation, but if he's running three minutes late (or something equally small), he freaks out.

It takes a lot for something to make him angry. Partly because he's calm, but also because he doesn't generally care what people say or do to him.

The best he can cook is just roasting something over a fire. That's it. To be fair, it is all he needs to do, not having an actual kitchen.

Speaking of, I headcanon he's got a really strong stomach and doesn't get food poisoning.

Well, really a strong immune system too, as I also think he doesn't get sick easily.

He was the quiet kid when he was young.

He's got a dark sense of humor. When his scars first appeared, he decided to play a prank on Banjo and pretend that he had been attacked.

He's kind of superstitious. Not to the point he inconviences people, but if you observe long enough, you'll notice a few odd things he does.

He hated going outside as a kid and would've rather stayed in his room and read. He warmed up to the woods eventually though. (I know this clashes, I just can't decide which I like best. 2 wolves and all that)

He's never been the most up to date with things, but Banjo would try to make sure he kept up and would give him newspapers, books, things like that.

He tried to be all self sacrificing and have will power and all that by refusing to do... pretty much anything that one needs to be healthy until Banjo convinced him to be a little easier on himself. Which helped him store up more strength.

His parents were a lot like him, but also more extreme in some ways. His mom was not only superstitious, but also believed in some crazy conspiracy theories and his dad was so awkward he didn't know how to interact with his own child. Also, he's an only child.

Rain and snow used to be his favorite because he could sit inside and watch. Then he had to live in the woods and decided that sunny days were best with a nice breeze.

And that's it. Sorry this took so long to answer, I had a lot going on this week.

ROUND 3 POLL 1

7. Suspicious Stew (He/Him, Xe/Xem) @hilaomart

Stew is the reincarnation of a thief and swindler who died from poison. This untimely death leads him to an early interest in various poisons and their effects on the body. Fearing his own untimely death, xe begins to drink his experiments in small doses to give himself an immunity to the substances. His lack of basic lab safety led to an incident in which he lost his right eye, leaving a large chemical burn over the right side of his face. Other than this, for a while, he was relatively normal. After an incident with another mad scientist in which he was the unwilling subject, Stew began to lose himself in his work to cope. Xe branched out into the broader fields of biochemistry and potion magic, experimenting on himself to avoid putting anything else in the position he was once in. Xe got a job in a more normal lab to pay the bills, occasionally stealing equipment and materials from his job for his own home lab. He began to sell potions and poisons on the black market to fund his work.

Xeir hubris began to catch up to xem. One incident in his lab with a dangerous substance led to permanent damage to his body as well as the loss of his right arm. The various mutations he gave himself were slowly making him less and less human as his morals slipped away. He experimented with the art of creation, bringing abominations of flesh to life. Xe began to rob graves and steal corpses to experiment on. He was becoming what he feared the most, though xe didn’t have enough humanity left to care.

Stew is a strange little guy. He’s quite unnerving and dare I say, suspicious. He’s protective of those he cares for to a dangerous degree. Xes awkward, finding trouble in social interaction due to years of self isolation. He’s doomed by the narrative and only half aware of it. Besides his scientific endeavors, xe enjoys practical jokes, skateboarding, and the company of whatever family he has left.

Also he does like cupcakes <3

26. Angel Anide (She/Her) @x0majestea0x

Miss Anide is a 37yr old chemist who is very much not doing normal chemistry. In her early 20s, she lost a lover dear to her, and began spiralling after she failed to clone her. Now she's been trying to make a chemical that can bring people back from the dead and has taken many lives while doing so. And kill her boss while she's at it.

Her favourite experiment was on someone named Malley, who she successfully managed to get her boss's conscious into and get them out of her way. It was also the most interesting to watch.

You should vote for her because she's also a mother. The clone she failed to make ended up as her daughter and she loves Allay so much. She may be a little evil but she would never hurt a child. She has love in her heart even if it's violent.

Angel also loves cupcakes and would eat them in one go.

Ps. She has cybernetic tentacle limbs that come from her back! Cool!

Relevant Links: I'm sharing her human version because she has the most up to date art. Her toyhouse is not the most organized/up-to-date but theres a lot of images.

[oncegreatness]

— character info sheet.

(repost, don’t reblog)

name: Basil Karlo.

name meaning: Literally named after Boris Karloff and Basil Rathbone. Basil is a plant, also.

alias/es: Clayface, or Clayface I.

ethnicity: Mostly German and Indian-American [as a nod to Boris Karloff]. Other than that, we don't know specifics.

one picture / icon you like best of your character:

three h/cs you never told anyone:

I've said it on Discord forever ago so technically not cheating, but he is wholly immune to prion diseases. He simply out-mutates the prions.

Other voiceclaims I'd considered for him were Tony Jay and Tim Curry. Eventually I decided the vocal dissonance of having him be mainly voiced by Vincent Price was too good to pass up.

I've implied it, but he suffers from pretty bad Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, or wet brain disease, due to a lifetime of alcoholism. More on that here. It's bad, yes, but he has been convinced to try and get help.

three things your character likes doing in their free time:

Drinking. Dear god, drinking. It started off as a way to numb the pain of his nerve endings being on fire, but of course the 1900's just spurred on social drinking as a movement overall.

Providing snarky commentary on any situation ever. He revels in being a catty gay.

Just vibing NGL. Gotham is a very hectic place, and Basil is old as shit despite the powers offering a physical boost. Boy needs a break sometimes!

eight people your character likes / loves:

[main AU and in any AUs where I happen to write them both] Viktor Albrektsson Fries/Mr. Freeze. They're in an awkward polycule with Nora. Literal ride or die.

Sondra Fuller. The only child he doesn't view as a parasite, for whatever reason. Honestly, even I don't really know why he immediately latched onto Sondra. Perhaps it's because she reminds him of himself.

@enignoema he's quite fond of Riddler. Quite. It's genuinely rare people get beneath that exterior and tragically Eddie has captivated him.

Mary! @babydxhl :) best buds forever

Film Freak as a broad general. Fuck yeah, a loser who only speaks in movie references.

[NPC] Thierry Baudin. Arguably the first person he ever truly loved and wasn't just using as a means to an end. Baudin had a dark side to him, one he tried to only express in his camerawork.

@ people: yeah IDK interact with me more?? Shrug. My characters don't know a whole lot of people on the Tumblr side of things.

two things your character regrets:

Not killing his father.

At his lowest moments, the fact he wasn't the one who died. He managed to hide his having AIDS, as he was somewhat sickly to begin with.

one phobia your character has:

Being alone. He'll never cop to it, though. Who is he when he isn't performing? I don't think he knows; maybe he never knew.

Tagged by: I stole this lmfaooo

Tagging: @enignoema , @babydxhl ; whoever else wants, I'm going to bed in a bit and I have a literal single digit number of followers on this blog

[starlight-phantom]

Ai the somnium files for the fandoms ask? You can include nirvana initiative if you want :3

I think I did one of these for AI about a month ago??? But my memory's terrible so I might as well just do it again 👍

3 male characters I love:

Kaname Date, I'm usually not a fan of the pervy character in things, but Date works so well because 1) He thinks all these things and makes comments but he never actually does stuff to people to make them uncomfortable, and 2) It's not his defining characteristic, he's so much more than horny. Like he's a great detective, he cares about his peers and wants to keep them safe, he's a great father figure even if he doesn't really know what he's doing, he's just such a great character. Also Greg Chun's performance is 👌👌👌

Kuruto Ryuki, *slaps roof* this boy can fit so many mental illnesses. I love this boy but goddamn he is a filthy liar whenever he says "I'm fine". But his story was so engaging and you really feel for him when it clicks into place. Like I've been giving the game a second playthrough with the knowledge of the twist and wow so many scenes hit different. Also, this is the first time I've heard Stephen Fu in a big role (The only other time I've heard him is Douma from KNY and he's only appeared a couple of times so far) and wow, I really wanna hear more of his work because his performance was incredible.

Pewter, I dunno he dresses like a fruity Pokémon villain and he's got an awkward yet charming personality. Not to mention, his story in the right path of the first game made me feel so bad for him... Like damn, just let this man be happy please, he deserves it. Also, I know I'm a broken record, but Sean Chiplock's performance, his delivery on the weirder lines are so funny (Yes I am thinking about the chairs line, how did you know?)

3 female characters I love:

Aiba, I fucking adore Aiba. She's the best. I love how she's the straight man to Date's shenanigans IRL but when they're in somniums, Date is the straight man to her shenanigans, I love her excitement whenever she sees bugs, I love how she knows Date so well she can manipulate him into being a better fighter, I love her lil jelly hamster form, I love Erika Harlacher's performance, I just really, really love Aiba.

Mizuki Date, I don't even know where to start with Mizuki... She's honestly one of the best written child characters I've seen in a game. And this poor girl has been through so much in both games but her route in the first game had me sobbing buckets. Not to mention, Corrina Boegetter's performance, they really knocked it out of the park for every single facet of Mizuki's personality. Also they genuinly managed to sound like a twelve year old, that's impressive all by itself.

Shizue Kuranushi, Listen... I am not immune to hot women voiced by Allegra Clark, okay? I'm only human. But seriously... Her design, her personality, her dedication to her co-workers, her office and the funny interactions that come from all the stuff she just doesn't throw away, and the fact that's somehow simultaneously a girlboss and a cringefail milf???? Impressive. She has the range, darling.

Also, quick shout-out to Tama, I adore her and her crazy laugh so much

3 romantic ships I love:

Kaname Date/Hitomi Sagan, god those two are so cute, really bummed they barely interacted in the sequel...

Kaname Date/Kuruto Ryuki, Date has two hands. But seriously, the admiration Ryuki has for Date and the way they watch out for each other is really sweet

Iris Sagan/Amame Doi, cute bubblegum colours but also they have each others backs and they always have fun hanging out with each other

There was another ship I wanted to add but it's spoilery and a mutual was considering potentially checking out the series so I thought it would be best to leave it out. But if you've played the first game, you can probably guess who it is.

3 platonic dynamics I love:

Kaname Date/Mizuki Date, I mean... Chances are if you've been following me for a while you know that I am just a huge sucker for family dynamics. And the dynamic of adopted father/daughter viewing each other as their real family but being too embarrassed to admit is something I adore.

Kuruto Ryuki/Tama, I love these two so much. I love how IRL Ryuki is just so done with all of Tama's dirty jokes and then in somniums Tama is so done with all of Ryuki's weird suggestions and skits. But also it's their concern for each other, you can tell they're partners. I feel like the best example of this is when Tama insists that Ryuki goes to the hospital no matter how much he protests, like... She just wants him to be safe and healthy...

Ota Matsushita/Mayumi Matsushita, god the Ota route destroyed me when I played through it but seeing them as a family getting through their issues was so sweet. I won't go into detail because it's personal but a few months ago I went offline for a while because of a family emergency and it's because of similar situation to Mayumi. So yeah, playing that hit hard.

3 favorite moments in canon:

The ending scenes of both games. If you know, you know.

Again, I wanna avoid spoilers but the Annihilation Route interrogation. Holy shit that scene was incredible.

The final scene in the final Somnium of Nirvana Initiative. Just... Goddamn that hit hard and the delivery of the "I have no regrets!" Crushed me.

3 favorite headcanons:

I honestly can't think of any headcannons off the top of my head... And I've been typing this response for way longer I intended... Sorry...

3 least favorite things about it:

Some of the somniums can have some obscure logic but like... Not in the way that you proud when you figure it out, but more angry in a "how the hell was I supposed to figure that out?" Kinda way.

I really hate how Ryuki and Tama just got kinda shoved to the side halfway through Nirvana Initiative. Like they stole the show for a lot of their scenes and then once the Mizuki Route started they barely appeared and when they did, they weren't really shown in the best light, especially Ryuki. Granted there's a plot reason for this but still... It's disappointing. If there's an AI3, I hope they get more screentime.

I feel like Tearer really didn't get enough screentime in Nirvana Initiative, especially when unmasked. Like c'mon this is the main antagonist, give us more of him! Especially considering his entire backstory, that's a lot of really interesting stuff to build off of! Also just... I wanted to hear more of Billy Kametz' villainous performance. It was rare to hear him in those roles but he was so damn good in them.

[marsvs-thesun]

Oof had to take a few days fighting the brainrot to get some actual work done, end of semester and all that jazz... sorry. This is all DELIGHTFUL tho! I'm realizing i actually love whump thanks to you lol

On one hand i totally agree with you, on the other i feel like Pythus couldn't resist the urge to gloat about one upping Ingressus ^^" well, so long as he's a terrible person he's in character i suppose

YES! It's about the trust and its inevitable break! Damn Senn's loved ones all want to kill each other... poor little guy. Will Senn ever understand the kind of person Pythus is tho? It's hard to let go of the only person in the world who had your back, no matter how terrible they were.

Del is trying his best! He's just Like That. Thankfully, Ria is kinda Like That too so I have a feeling they would be best buds by the end of the war lmao. Give murderous teenagers/young adults/no canon age with a death wish or give me death!

Listen. Almrak deserves to bonk someone and Pythus deserves to be bonked. It just works! (Side note, but i've always headcanoned Almrak as pretty good with bow or a crossbow, since he has two hands and a lot of free time, sooo here's another possibility as to How To Commit Regicide)

...Not to be angsty on main but now I'm wondering what kind of leverage Pythus could gain over Senn if he found out about his little found family... would be a reaal shame if one of those lovely people were to lose their head :) Thalleous and Osivian deserve that L imo. Imagine you raise a child so horribly a literal hostage situation/toxic situationship is were he finally starts to heal and finds comfort. They failed SO hard.

"Pythus tempting the Cain instinct" that's it, the character in a nutshell. Ultimate characterization. We made it.

Ooooh well you did NOT help me finish my homework considering ive reread this at least three times so far but i forgive because this is some DELICIOUS food /lh

Oh Ingressus you self sacrificial little idiot. He really would sell his soul for the slightest improvement of the Voltaris' situation uh... This man is NOT putting his oxygen mask on before helping others. I love him dearly.

Weird detail but i love your use of colors in this! I was really annoyed with the Nether in SoW being all dark red and gloom, since it came out after the Nether update and the new Nether is literally so beautiful and colorful! Let Netherans wear teal and magenta and gold/quartz accents! Let me see soul fire goddamit! There's more to life than Nether bricks

Damn Pythus living in luxury/throwing his wealth in Ingressus' face is super interesting since i'm pretty sure the canon reason for the Nether's original involvement in the Great War was their lack of ressources, and especially food... (I'm taking this from the season 2 commentary i think? I'm not sure anymore, and i doubt the video is still online). Like, either the man is really trying to flex or he's a terrible king (it's both. but mostly he's terrible)

The thing with the sow protecting her babies with her life... it's about Dominus and Ingressus right? Cause if that's the case then the foreshadowing this casts on their relationship is... aaaaah

First time in my life wanting to eat blood soup damn. You make it sound really good.

YES INGRESSUS! STAB! STAB! STAB!

Ingressus about to teleport outta here lol. Poor guy is having the worst social interaction of his life. Being thrown off a cliff was less awkward.

The handmade gift thing is such a good hc! I almost want to think Pythus is being genuine here... I am not immune to propaganda.

Oooooh Tygren's gonna diiiiieeeee

Necrophilia is one thing, but Pythus is Netheran... and Netherans are the best Necromancers out there. Anyone down for a zombie!Senn AU?

(Somewhat unrelated, but circling back to the beginning of our conversation- I remembered that the suitors have a villain song in epic! and it fits Pythus a little TOO well actually, especially the second verses. It's Hold Them Down if you want to listen to it, though the final version isn't out yet. CW for sexual assault in the third verse, though, it IS a villain song and not a very fun one. But very catchy!)

That's it btw, you've got me. Despite my best effort i've started yet ANOTHER fic i might never finish but hey might as well try. It's Ingressus/Pythus and i might steal a few of your hc for it cause ngl they are really good I have a few idea for platonic Senthus as well, but i think they would require a longer fic than a one shot so they'll stay in my head for now :)

This close to drawing a ria and herobrine animatic based off no longer you

Ria is Odysseus

Herobrine is tiresias

Ria is pissed about this whole situation

[fanon-canon-idfk]

Hi there! Can I request a Saiki K scenario? Like Saiki having a little brother that just daydreams all the time and has a habit of wandering, and is immune to his powers or something like that.

I'm not sure if I requested something already but if I have then you can ignore this request.

IVE GOT YOU

I DECIDED RATHER THAN HAVE THE ABILITIES NOT WORK THAT IT WOULD BE FUNNY IF THE READER WAS JUST DAYDREAMING SO MUCH IT WAS UNBEARABLE-

Head in the Clouds

Saiki’s younger brother reader

It was your birthday, you were turning 15 and your entire family was so happy to celebrate you, even Kusuke came home to celebrate you!

However, your other older brother, Kusuo, was not enjoying himself.

Everyone was getting you gifts and Kusuo was planning on just opting out, but knowing how your mom that obviously wasn’t happening.

His first idea was to just read your mind for what you wanted but.. Kusuo then remembered just who his little brother was..

A constantly daydreaming teenager..

You constantly annoyed him with your random instantaneous thoughts.

One second he was being able to think quietly, and the next he was hearing your thoughts about being in your favorite anime and having a super cool adventurous life.

Sometimes it was entertaining, like watching tv, and other times he wanted to strangle you.

This was a strangle day.

So he decided he’d have to do it the hard way. Social interaction.

He begrudgingly made his way to your room, already hearing the sound of your annoying thoughts as he drew closer.

He opened the door and you stared back at him. You then spoke up “What’s up, Kusuo?” You asked as you paused your tv.

He looked you dead in the eyes before simply saying (telepathically ofc) “what do you want for your birthday?”

“All that awkward silence for that? Geez, only you can make easy things that complicated!” You chuckled as you made fun of him.

“Must be a family gene…” he thought to himself. You spoke up again “hmm what do I want..?”

He was waiting for any thoughts about something he could just get at the store since he didn’t feel like putting that much time into it.

And then he regretted ever asking..

You went from think about gifts, to video games, to tv shows, to imagine yourself in tv shows.

It was an endless cycle with you…

How would he ever figure out what to get you if you totally spaced out every time??

He was ready to give up and get the mom penalty at this point.

“Oh! I know!” You exclaimed out of nowhere.

He was so relieved you’d finally figured it out, he was thinking about teleporting away at this point.

You stood up and pointed at him “I want you to help me live my fantasies for a day!” You announced with a smirk.

. . .

It was silent.

He just gave you a look that clearly expressed his hard judging of your demand.

“Oh come on! Let a guy live his dream!” You complained “especially when you know you can do it with your fancy powers!”

“You’re a sad existence..” he deadpanned. You dramatically frowned.

“Come on Kusuooo, make the birthday boy’s wish come true??” You pleaded.

He was ready to turn you down again, until you continued speaking.

“I’ll tell mom you refused to get me anything.” You threatened, a creepy little smile on your face.

“This kid is seriously playing the favorite child card..” he thought to himself before turning back to look at you.

“Fine.”

That night you got to play as the main character in your absolute favorite anime, it was so much fun for you.

Kusuo watched throughout your experience, he was was rolling his eyes in annoyance. So childish.

And yet, as your big brother, he couldn’t help but feel satisfaction from seeing his brother smile.

OK THIS ONE WAS SHORT AND NOT THAT GOOD AT ALL BUT SHHH I HOPE YOU LIKED IT

[tenthgrove]

Omg imagine la squadra with a teenage teammate 👀 (platonic obvs but I'm 18 and I wonder how they'd act with a team member that's a lot younger than them) cause I hc them as being in their late 20s early 30s ‼️

Okay I love love love this idea! I decided to go for the approach of a younger teenager, someone around 14 or 15 years old, and make them someone who is keen to prove themselves and be respected, but still has all the fears that would be natural for someone in this situation so young, hidden beneath the front they put on.

La Squadra Interacting with a Younger Teammate

Formaggio- The prospect of La Squadra’s next recruit being a kid is actually quite appealing to Formaggio. He doesn’t get much respect from the rest of the team, but he hopes a teenager would be more impressionable, more easy to wow. As soon as the newcomer is through the door Formaggio is already pulling out his cool uncle act. He’s always begging to show them something cool (usually just some random thing he shrunk) or tell them a gruesome story from the job. He totally forgets how naturally weary they’re going to be as someone who recently moved teams. When he finally realises how uncomfortable he makes them, he feels very guiltridden and backs away. But then one day, by pure accident, he makes them laugh. Genuinely. Things ease up a lot after that.

Illuso- Since he isn’t particularly good with kids, Illuso thinks it’s best to just treat them the same as he does any other teammate. This doesn’t go well, their interactions clunky and awkward as the newcomer is unsure how to respond. Eventually, Illuso realises too and decides he’s going to have to change tactic. What do teenagers like? Mischief? While the idea of taking the kid around the mirror world to wreck havoc on the base is tempting, it would not go down well with Risotto once he finds out. What else is there? Gossip? Yes, that could work. When Illuso finds himself alone with the kid with nothing else to talk about, he starts telling them all the dirty secrets he’s collected about his team over the years. There’s nothing age innappropriate, but it’s enough to break down the image the kid has of La Squadra as humorless, intimidating adults. The others soon notice a change in the kid’s behaviour and congratulate Illuso for helping them settle in, however it was he managed to do that. Well, that certainly wasn’t Illuso’s intention, but he’ll take the applause anyway.

Pesci- The arrival of the newcomer marks a big change for Pesci. He’s no longer the youngest of the group, both in age and in experience. While he’s glad to lose the associated teasing, it fills him with a sense of responsibility he isn’t quite ready for. Being the youngest in the group gave him a slight feeling of immunity for all his fuck-ups, both real and percieved, and that’s gone now. Worse, he sees this kid and he sees someone far newer to the game than he is yet somehow still able to face it with more courage than he does. The kid scares him, really. It feels like he is the junior member of the dynamic they have together. Then one day he finds their phone in the front room. He knows the others have a habit of pinching things like this for mean-spirited jokes, so he puts his anxiety regarding the kid on hold to go up to their room and give it back to them. He didn’t expect to find them crying there. He rushes up to them immediately, patting them on the shoulder nervously to offer some comfort. He asks them what’s wrong. “Everything. I’m scared.” At the end of the day, they really are just a child.

Prosciutto- The second-in-command doesn’t have time to mentor the newcomer to the same extent he does with Pesci, but he’ll still keep an eye on them whenever he can. Any of those violent idiots could teach them to kill, but Prosciutto’s going to make sure they learn to carry themselves right as well. For one, they need to get rid of those grungy hoodies and jeans they insist on wearing. He supposes he’ll just have to take them shopping. Overall, he can seem quite harsh on the kid, but he has their best interests at heart. He wouldn’t be paying them any mind at all if he didn’t have faith in them to go far.

Melone- As is only natural with his stand, Melone is good with kids. Teenagers are a different matter, and with little concrete memory of the whirl of heartbreak and emotions that were his own teen years, Melone isn’t as sure of himself as he would like to be. So he takes the experimental method, observes how their reactions to certain interactions in order to figure out the best way of keeping them at ease. It’s overall a good approach, and Melone becomes one of the earlier members of the team who the newcomer opens up to. The only issue is the others. They do not trust him. So, Melone takes it upon himself to prove himself. He makes a point of adjusting his behaviour, abandoning some of his more unsavoury habits for good, and not just in the kid’s present. The others are surprised, but pleasantly so. Melone is thankful to the newcomer for improving his standing with the team in general.

Ghiaccio- He is not happy. He knows about other teams getting actual children dumped on them, but he never thought it would happen to them. It makes him absolutely furious; the last thing this team needs right now is some petulant brat to take care of. Ghiaccio will give them the cold shoulder for a long time. Eventually, it takes Risotto dragging him into his office and point-blank asking what his problem is to make him reconsider. Ghiaccio drags his heels, insists he needs nothing to do with the newcomer, but then Risotto reminds him how young Ghiaccio was when he got trapped in his life. That changes things. That evening, as Risotto watches on silently from the doorway, Ghiaccio approaches the newcomer in the sitting room. “Hey… kid… do you like video games?” he asks uncertainly. The kid perks up, surprised to hear such an offer from Ghiaccio of all people. They accept. Ghiaccio invites them to play with him often after that. Risotto doesn’t need to ask him.

Risotto- Well, this is interesting. Risotto finds the kid hard to deal with because of how much he sees himself in them. They’re pretty much the same age he was when his own life went to hell. Risotto may have trouble facing the newcomer, but he’ll do it anyway for their sake. He wants to do what he can to make their own youth easier than his, if only by a fraction. For them, he’ll let down his walls and be a confidante. He’ll let them be honest about their fears with him, and he’ll comfort them to the best of his ability. He doesn’t want them to end up like him. He doesn’t want them to lose their humanity.

Sorbet and Gelato- “Sorbet, that’s a baby.” “Christ, you’re right.” Sorbet and Gelato may be devoid of sympathy towards a majority of humanity, but they at least have it in them to feel sorry for a kid. Especially a kid dumped into the closest thing the couple has to a family. Truth is, Sorbet and Gelato have long desired a child of their own, but never truly believed the opportunity would present itself. They know taking in a scarred teenager a few years off from adulthood will never truly take the place of a child to call their own, but if this is the closest they can get, they’ll take it. So yeah, congratulations kid, meet your new group assinged fathers. Sorbet is the more realistic of the two, the one who reluctantly accepts the need to prepare the newcomer for mafia life. They develop a dynamic somewhat comparable to Pesci and Prosciutto, with Sorbet becoming the primary mentor for the child when Risotto is too busy. Gelato is the one who really tries to baby the kid, trying to keep them away from their work as much as possible and always fussing over them whenever a mission can’t be avoided. The kid might be reluctant to accept it, but it is what they need. At least once in a while.

OBSESSED WITH GISELLE.. what would she think of berdly’s friends ????

YAY I'M HAPPY YOU LIKE HER i'm also obsessed with her. to answer your quastion...

noelle:

very nice girl! berdly is very hesitant about letting people come over - it's just...awkward; it feels like he's revealing too much of himself :/ for a long time, noelle was the only friend of his who got to see his house and meet giselle ! anyway. giselle is not very great at interacting with her own kid sometimes and is generally worse at interacting with other people's kids. the first time she met noelle was actually at the spelling bee, since noelle got second place and also because after seeing her break down on stage berdly was like :( and kind of attached himself to her hip and was trying to cheer her up! giselle didn't retain much about her at the time but she was thinking to herself "oh what a sweet little girl", and after that berdly starts saying things like "i'm going to noelle's house after school today" and giselle's like ? who's noelle. and berdly's like, ...you met her at the spelling bee, and giselle's like OH. ok. and is secretly very pleased to see berdly making a close friend (take THAT toriel i told you he was a capable well-adjusted child-)

as noelle starts to come over every so often, giselle finally pieces together that she's the holidays' youngest daughter and remembers the big uproar about that snowstorm and their oldest disappearing during it... that aside, she appreciates how kind and clever!! noelle is. but she sees the deep-set sadness in her eyes and it breaks her heart, and she wishes she knew how to reach out... and for her part, noelle is Wary of giselle, having had many a conversation with berdly about both their moms' less than stellar performances over the years. she stays totally polite, but maintains a certain icy distance. BUT when berdly tells her that he thinks things are going to get better, she starts to let her guard down. she starts having proper conversations with giselle when berdly leaves the room for whatever reason. the ice is officially melted when giselle passes by the living room and sees noelle looking at the (few) framed photos giselle has of younger berdly hung on the walls, and because berdly is upstairs and out of earshot and can't protest, giselle asks noelle if she'd like to see her photo album, where all of berdly's Baby pictures are hidden

kris:

oh she adores kris :) they 100% have her blessing agfjkdlfldj. she loves that they’re like...themself. and they’re not interested in conforming to other people’s expectations (small tangent to clarify that a lot of kris’s character revolves around this struggle of feeling like it’d be better if they were a different person, someone worthy of being in the dreemurr family, the person the red soul tries to make them be - but they don’t want to be a different person. no matter how hard they try to force themself. they don’t want to be like... ralsei. they like who they are. much like susie, they are unapologetically themself. but they are apologizing for Not Wanting to be another person, because they do still feel like they should, but they don’t. and after the red soul stuff is resolved they really embrace who they are and stop making apologies entirely. make sense? ok great anyway)

their generally very relaxed disposition, sardonic sense of humor, and the slight spunk to their attitude... they remind her of herself when she was young! before 5795748354735748 billion things happened and she became more of a high energy whirlwind. (she’s mellowed out again in recent years but she’ll also never be as chill as she was when she was a teenager) she thinks they temper berdly, and she’s right :) they get along well!! giselle adapts quickly to essentially having a second (third. fourth? christ) kid all of a sudden

susie:

as a mother, giselle is not immune to susie’s insta-charm and adoptable aura. she isn’t as motherly and nurturing as like, toriel. but she definitely thinks very fondly of susie and likes to make sure she’s doing alright. and of course, it’s always very nice to see berdly’s circle of friends growing... since you can't really separate her from kris and/or noelle, she's a frequent guest for dinner and hangouts and etc

tem:

i just think this is a funny friendship possibility so i'm writing it into existence. she sits next to berdly ok. she pesters him until one day he's like "y'know what you're alright actually." they aren't Close-close but like idk she keeps him company on really slow days at the library. so actually lottie knows tem better than giselle does, but lottie speaks well of her to giselle! maybe one day it's raining pretty hard after school so giselle goes to pick berdly up and he's sharing his umbrella with tem and giselle asks her if she needs a ride home too. and ya sure whatever, the pastabilities

jockington:

giselle doesn’t see jockington too often - mostly just at cross country meets! but she thinks he’s a good kid. she’s super happy that he and noelle got berdly to join the cross country team because that’s what she did in high school too :) little bit of motherly pride seeing her kid do the same extracurriculars she did etc.......

catti:

berdly isn’t close with catti so giselle sees her even less than jockington. if they hang out, it’s because she’s tagging along with like jockington or noelle or kris. as berdly starts to get Over Himself and makes more of an effort to be friendlier to his classmates, catti’s like oh, chill. and starts doing things like giving him a little wave when he comes into class. they just. don’t have a lot of common ground...? they did get into a rather (positively) heated discussion about dragon blazers once tho. ANYWAY i’m thinking that giselle, lottie, and berdly all go out to qc’s while catti’s working and she passes by their table and pauses and is like, hey berdly. and moves on. and giselle’s like who is that, does she go to your school, are you two friends, etc

the high school class is so small that i do think all the kids are Pretty Much friends one way or another. but giselle knows MK and snowy Even Less than catti. she knows they like, exist. she sees them around. she doesn't know their names tho

Mentor Day

Note : In This AU, Hawks is adopted by the todoroki Family, enji is a good dad and dabi is not a villain. And Todoroki's Mom is a Hero.

Pairings : Jealous! Hawks x Reader

Writing style: 3rd Person

Warning : Cussing

Word count : 3623

3rd Person's POV

" I'm so excited for Today! I can't wait to meet your Mentors! " Kirishima yelled with enthusiasm punching the air.

Everyone was gathered around Ground Beta for the sole reason that the Head of Agencies they were currently interning in were coming over to discuss the growth of the students, also because they chose U.A as the meeting Venue knowing that it's one of the places in Japan that is Highly guarded and secured and the School was Near the City so if anything were to happen they could always get there in a jeepy. There was another Reason but it wasn't disclosed to any of the students and nobody questioned it.

" Shut Up shitty Hair! " Bakugou snarled smacking Kirishima who seemed to be unaffected by Bakugou's ' affection ' towards him.

" Hey aren't You and Tokoyami Under Hawks's? The number 2 Pro Hero!? " Mina pointed out and suddenly everyone's attention was now settled on Y/n and Tokoyami.

Tokoyami had an unreadable expression but his face mostly showed that he was awkward and uncomfortable with the Topic. Not because of His Mentor... It's because of His Mentor's Interest.

Y/n on the other hand looked annoyed pissed, it was very obvious that neither of the two wanted to talk about it because of the lack of answer and their current expressions.

" So... What's it Like to be Under Pro Hero Hawks? " Momo began to press deeper onto the subject and was oblivious to her two classmate's look of disapproval. And it seems like she wasn't the only curious one.

" Well? " Jiro raised a brow when they didn't hear an answer. The two were very hesitant until y/n finally spoke up.

" Tokoyami-kun would I be breaking the law if I talk shit about him? "

" Eeehhhh!? " Everyone was confused as to why the sudden change of their classmate's personality took shift at a questionable rate.

" Technically there's no law about that and since he's not here to hear it... It's fine " Tokoyami answered with a straight face and his response got everyone questioning their experience even more.

" What the hell happened to you two while you were there? " Denki asked staring at the two. Tokoyami was hesitant but y/n just looked pissed and angry .

She showed irritation that could match Bakugou's.

" That's not something you should be asking me... You should be asking y/n that... I just had the unfortunate privilege to witness... That.... And I know a very dark secret I wish to unlearn " Tokoyami muttered at Everyone was fidgeting with curiosity while staring at y/n who looked like she was about to explode any minute now.

" Well if you Must know. On the first week I had to endure a bunch of whiny one night stand's Drama and Rage while trying to get them to go fuck themselves and trust me... Persuading a bunch of love struck delusional hoes to go home and keep silent for the rest of their lives isn't a very charming job. I had to suck in every single cheesy pick up lines that'll have anyone gagging, I had to endure being dragged around through the wonderful 'skies' like a ragdoll in the most unfortunate hour and I had to deal with Birdman's constant fuckery every single day so yeah... It wasn't that bad.... It was terrible. " Y/n's tone was forcefully dragged out and polite but her hostile expression got everyone shuddering.

Yes, Hawks was a flirt and he'd flirt with her with every chance he got, much to y/n's dismay. But knowing Hawks's reputation she brushed it off like it was one of his most common habits and got used to ignoring him, he was nice though and she felt like a sheltered child. Hawks never let's her go out to patrol on her own unless it's with Him and only Him. He constantly brings her gifts and snacks to which she is thankful and greatly flattered but she didn't like hearing Rumors about her with the Pro Hero himself. Overall she was thankful that she was being treated well but she didn't appreciate the special treatment.

Tokoyami on the other hand knew of his Mentor's love and affection for his Classmate, if he knew any better he found out that Hawks had imprinted on y/n like a new born chick. The reason Tokoyami knew that was because of the gifts, the flirting, Hawks's constant need to be around y/n, His possessiveness and Don't even get Tokoyami started on How much Hawks talks about y/n during patrol. Hell, Even when Hawks is literally stepping on a Villain's Face he'd still talk about How ' Perfect she was ' . At most of all, his Classmate was very unaware of Hawks's actual feelings and he's afraid he couldn't blame her simply because of Hawks's reputation as a 'playboy'.

" Wow.... I didn't think it would be like that.... Hawks's still pretty cool though " Sero muttered and that left y/n gawking at him because the least they could do was sympathize with her!.

" No shit " She grumbled sarcastically and she felt two hands grab hold of her shoulder behind her and speaking of the Devil, Hawks was already here.

" Hey there chicken nugget, what are you kids talking about? " Hawks asked leaning down , resting his chin on y/n's shoulder while both of his hands clamped down on each side of her shoulder blades protectively.

" Nothing Hawks, we were Talking about Nothing " Y/n who was already immune to the Touchiness of the male behind her was nonchalant on her reply and she sounded bored but her expression clearly showed ' Oh No, Not this Shit Again ' .

" Oh really? Well ok then baby bird but I have to say You look Perfect little dove but that is to be expected by my Epitome of beauty " Hawks grinned rubbing his cheeks against y/n's own in a very affectionate manner.

" Yeah, Yeah. Get off me Birdman you're getting that irritating Chicken stench on me " Y/n grumbled pushing him away from her to which she was successful with.

" Aww~ But you felt so soft " Hawks whined in an almost childish way.

Everyone was witnessing the very thing Tokoyami dreaded and they were choking on their own spit after seeing the interaction between the two.

They and so many questions yet so little answer and they knew they couldn't just bombard y/n with questions, not when Hawks was around.

" Uhh... You two seem.. Close" Denki commented to where he earned a proud grin from Hawks.

" No we're Not. He's just being A flirt, you'll Get used to it " Y/n snickered rolling her eyes at Hawks who was trying to hug her.

" You should have heard How much He talks about her at Home... He's like a broken Radio. Y/n this and that " Todoroki snorted and his comment got everyone gaping.

It didn't look that way to everyone else, it was clear that the Pro Hero liked her if throwing himself around her wasn't enough, the look in his eyes definitely spoke otherwise.

" So this is the little Lassy Hawks have been talking about? " Fatgum along with the rest of the pro Heroes Were slowly gathering towards them.

" This is Her? She's adorable in person . Keigo Never stops talking about her at home" Another voice came from a woman with white hair, and is almost identical to Shoto.

" .... Hah! You should hear what he has to say when he's asleep " Dabi murmured with a laugh.

" .... You Talk about me? " Y/n asked staring at Hawks who was nodding his head, a smirk plastered on his face.

" Ewww, Stop that. It's annoying and creepy " Y/n sighed shoving Hawks away.

" Isn't she lovely? " Rei mumbled a small chuckle escaping her lips as Dabi stared at her in bewilderment .

" So you're not gonna question their age gap?..... Really mom? " Dabi snorted and enji stood behind him, patting his back.

" You know how your mother is " Enji muttered staring down at his son.

" You have a point.... "

____________________

By now everyone was gathered around, some of them chatting with their mentors and some were meeting their classmate's other mentors.

Rei, Enji and Dabi were intently observing Keigo who looked so close to snapping, sure his face looked playful and relaxed but they knew him well enough to know that it was Keigo's facade.

On the other side was Y/n and Hawks talking to Fat gum, well it was only y/n showing enthusiasm about their conversation, Hawks had never left her side the whole time. Always trailing behind her like a lost puppy.

" That's really cool! I heard from Kirishima that you have two Forms? " Y/n's eyes gleamed with curiosity.

" Why yes little lady " Fat gum answered as he nervously glanced at Hawks. He could feel the raging intensity of Hawks's Jealousy radiating brighter than the sun's ray. To which y/n was oblivious of.

" Ya know buddy, you really have nothing to worry about when it's me " Fat gum stated his words directed towards Hawks who let out a sigh and gave him a genuine smile for once.

" Sorry, I couldn't help it when it comes to my little dove " Hawks chuckled slinging his arm around her shoulder and y/n immediately reacted by shoving his arm away without even glancing at him.

" Stop talking about me like I'm not here " Y/n muttered to which Hawks replied by doing it again and y/n shoved his arm again.

Fat gum was both entertained and a bit awkward with the situation until he spotted his side kick. Tamaki whom he had kindly asked to pick up something for him

" Anyways! That's enough you two, I'd like you to meet Tamaki Amajiki. He's my sidekick " Fat gum proudly introduced Tamaki who froze in his spot and began trembling nervously.

" Oh wow! I've heard so much about him! Our class was introduced to him before! But I never got to see his face clearly because he had his face on the wall the whole time! Let's start all over again. Hey I'm y/n l/n! Nice to meet you senpai... For the second time " Y/n grinned putting her hand out to shake his.

Tamaki who was nervous and flattered that someone remembered him shakily reached out his hand to shake hers but a look of pure shock flashed through his face when Another hand met his.

" Nice to meet you Buddy " Hawks grinned in an odd and threatening manner squeezing poor Tamaki's hand .

" U-u-uhh" Tamaki stuttered at y/n was annoyed at Hawks's actions.

" Hey! I was the-- you know what? Never mind. Anyway, senpai I heard stories about you from Kirishima-kun! And I think you're really cool! And you're cuter up close! " Y/n tried easing the nervous senior with compliments in order to atone the actions of Hawks. But Hawks took it in a different way.

Tamaki flushed red and Hawks let go of his hand with disdain, his eyes having a deadly glint and his smirk almost looked threatening and sadistic.

Fat gum who witnessed the scene knew he fucked up by calling Tamaki over, the Todoroki family were astonished to see how reactive Hawks could be when y/n was involved. At home he was really hard to read and when they thought they knew him Hawks suddenly surprises everyone by proving them wrong. But now his expression looks so raw and unmasked.

" Tsk, He doesn't Look much to Me " Hawks suddenly spat out in an irritated tone.

Y/n elbowed him after seeing Tamaki's expression.

" He doesn't mean that! He's just really insensitive... Aren't you Hawks? " Y/n glared at the man beside her and he scoffed looking away.

" You're actually really powerful Senpai! Trust me! Kirishima talks about you all the time it's adorable seeing him look up to someone who's equally as cute as Kirishima " Y/n tried covering the damage done by Hawks and Tamaki was conflicted. He didn't know who to believe anymore.

Another scoff was heard from Hawks and before he could make another comment y/n stepped on his feet making him wince.

" Ouch! " He grumbled looking down at y/n who was glaring at him threateningly.

Jealousy bubbled at the very core of Hawks, She called two men cute at the same time and she dared to do it in front of him! He praised men who aren't him. Sure they aren't official but isn't it clear that he was showing how much he could give her? He knows he's enough but it seems like his little dove was very dense. It's starting to irritate him. He didn't feel good inside and he really wanted to punch a bitch. Was she taunting him? Oh she definitely was. Just look at how she looks at them , it really makes him want to rip off someone's throat.

His wings began to bristle and rose intimidatingly the edges becoming sharp and ridged, jealousy was getting the best of him.

With a rough Tug, he dragged her away forcefully even with the harsh protest from the girl.

" Hey! Ok this is getting out of hand! " Y/n pulled her hand away and Hawks looked back at her with a gaze that could kill.

" Stop taunting me Y/n. I'm not handling it well " Hawks muttered but his voice was rough and demanding. Y/n shivered at how her name rolled out of his tongue. He never uses that tone or calls out her name like that unless she's in deep shit.

" Clearly, you're mad about shit I didn't do so go cool off or something " Y/n shot back her expression was out of sheer anger and Hawks responded by spreading his wings and he flew off without another word.

With a sigh y/n went back to her classmates, she was unaware if the stares that were thrown her way.

" A lovers quarrel? " Mt. Lady mumbled.

" Definitely a Lovers Quarrel " Fat gum confirmed.

" Is no one seriously questioning the fact about their age gap? " Dabi stated and Rei gave him a cold glare. Even shoto was seen glaring at him from his group.

" Ok fine jeez " Dabi shrugged shoving his hands into his pockets.

_____________________

20 minutes had passes and Hawks was still gone, by that time everyone was gathered around, the class was seated on the ground as the Pros started giving out their opinions and deductions on hm their performance.

Rei began to feel worried about her adopted son that had raged out of the area. Enji tried reassuring her that Keigo was old enough to take care of himself.

And on cue Hawks had arrived holding a box in his hand, he looked calmer now and more relaxed.

" Keigo dear, are you ok? " Rei asked approaching the male.

" Yeah I'm fine... Just needed a little breather.... " He muttered, his eyes glued to y/n who was listening intently to the discussion. Rei noticed this and a smile graced her lips.

" Go get her dear " Rei encouraged the male and Hawks flashed her a grin.

" Oh I will. And I'm going to make sure you're going to have a daughter in law soon " Keigo smugly stated and Rei's eyes widened only to have the woman laugh.

Luckily the little lessons the Pro's were conducting had finished and everyone was free. As the students began to stand up. Y/n was pulled away immediately by Hawks. And once she was a few feet away a box was shoves towards her. She was caught off guard but managed to hold it in her hands as she lookes up at Hawks questioningly.

" What's this? " The girl asked suspiciously.

" You like that doughnut shop near our agency yeah? I was flying by and decided to buy some for you as a Sorry present.. I admit that I went overboard... " Hawks explained rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.

" What!? I can't accept thi---"

" Eat it or Throw it. I'm giving it to you and that's final so do what you want with it... Although it would be a waste if you throw it away... I did go out of my way to buy that for you with my own money even though I was still angry---"

" Ok fine you don't have to guilt trip me! I'll accept it ok?.... But you did say I could do what I want with it so... I'm sharing this with everyone " Y/n smiled and Hawks snapped his head towards her his eyebrows furrowed.

" What? No. I bought that For YOU not for them " Hawks grumbled and the girl gave him a playful smirk.

" You did say it was mine and I could do whatever I want with it " She replied slyly and Hawks turned away stomping his way towards Rei, Enji and Dabi.

" Ooo... You got it Bad. She's denser than a--"

" Don't finish that Touya I swear " Hawks glared at Dabi who only laughed at his protectiveness.

" Just be patient Keigo, she is young and she probably still doesn't have Love on her mind yet " Rei assured Keigo while rubbing his back.

" Tsk. You better not give up. You're a Todoroki after all , and I already acknowledge her as a daughter in law... No crazy woman would stomp their feet on the number 2 hero like that " Enji nodded and Hawks should be delighted but his eyes were glued to the girl.

She was sharing the doughnuts he bought for her and the last straw came when she had fed Kirishima with a doughnut.

His fathers on his wings bristled and the ends began to sharpen, his eyes darkened at the sight and his teeth were gritted.

The girl took notice of this and approached him. God he was losing it. One wrong move and he might forget the fact that she's still a minor and just go straight up to breeding her if he had to. Fuck everything she does is turning him on . He is smitten.

" Hey what's wrong? "

" You have the guts to ask me ' What's wrong?' Oh why don't ask that to all the other guys you fed doughnuts to? The ones I bought for you! You're so oblivious it's starting to piss me off little dove. Was I not subtle enough? I fucking Like---mphf--" Hawks was cut off when a Doughnut was shoved in his mouth by the girl in front of him.

" Shut your worm Hole You stupid Birdman, I like you too ok? But please stop being so annoying. I'm also protecting your reputation as a Hero here. I can't have you all over the tabloids stating that you like a high schooler. You'd be seen as a pedophile you dumbass " The girl finished and was about to pull her hand away from his mouth when he grabbed hold of her wrist, he kissed her finger gingerly before licking and sucking on that very finger she held the doughnut .

She froze, Dabi Froze, Everyone froze.

" What the fuck? " Katsuki was she first to speak up.

" I second that ' What the fuck ' " Y/n muttered and Hawks gave her a look that could have her melt into a puddle. A smug and triumphant grin plastered on his face as his arms wrapped around her waist possessively.

" Awww~ it warms my heart to know that you're protecting me that way. For a moment there I thought you don't care and all that shitty jealousy was so worth it because you told me you like me in the end.... " Hawks cooed his face nearing hers and she immediately distanced her face away from him.

" Hawks get off me! " She yelled her face was flushed and he had the sudden urge to kiss her right now.

" You'll have to pay for making me jealous though. It was not a very pretty feeling " Hawks grinned before his wings spread open and gave one strong flap and he was already flying her away from the scene.

" Holy shit.... Dude " Denki muttered staring up at the sky.

" Enji! Do you think we should renovate the house? " Rei asked enthusiastically.

" I think we just might have to " Enji replied.

" .... I ship it though " Mina stated and the girls gave an unspoken agreement to her statement.

" So... How many chicks do you think they'll have? " Dabi asked and Rei smacked him.

" Touya! " Rei scolded making Dabi chuckle.

" Nah it's too early... He won't knock her up just yet... Or will he? " Dabi grinned and this time Rei had frozen him in place.

" Touya! Stop that! " Rei fumed.

Dabi shut up immediately fearing Rei's wrath after seeing her angry expression.

[myaekingheart]

50,40,27 for the ask game! For Rei. 16,24,39 for another oc? 👀

Ooh yes okay this is going to be fun xD

[oc asks game]

For Rei:

50. How does your sleep at night? Are they a heavy or light sleeper? Do they dream or have nightmares? Do they find it easy to sleep or are they more a night owl?

The truth of the matter is that Rei does not get good sleep at all. She's definitely a night owl, and a little bit of an insomniac, to varying degrees throughout her life. She's had lifelong anxiety that always likes to strike at night, so sometimes panic attacks will keep her awake. Other times, she's just not tired and she'd rather stay up reading a book or watching trash TV. During her ANBU years especially, she had a bad habit of staying up until 4am and then dragging herself to work two hours later. When she does sleep, though, she's a very heavy sleeper. Not even a freight train could wake her, and when she does snap awake in the middle of a deep sleep, she's super disoriented. She's not immune to having vivid dreams, either, though whether they're happy dreams or nightmares is relative. Though I'll admit, I do find myself writing more nightmares for her when I write about her dreams at all.

40. Your character’s friend has just been mugged. What’s their reaction?

I hate to say this, but it depends on the friend? If her best friend Sekkachi gets mugged, then Rei is more of an accomplice than a defender because Sekkachi would already be after the culprit in two seconds flat. The same can be said of Rei's ANBU comrade Arai. If her other best friend Naru was the one being mugged, Rei would be a little more protective. Not that Naru can't hold her own, because she certainly can, but I'd say she's a little less confrontational? And she also probably wouldn't care that much because she comes from a wealthy family where she can simply afford to replace whatever was stolen. And if it's Rei's other ANBU comrade Mikazuki that is getting mugged, then by all means Rei would apprehend the suspect because Mikazuki would not put up a fight at all. If anything, she would try to brush it off and pretend like it doesn't upset her, saying that she didn't really care about the money stolen or the goods or whatever anyway, don't worry about it, it's really fine, please don't make a scene. Rei would undoubtedly get frustrated by this and do the right thing anyway because few things boil her blood more than seeing people get away with crimes.

27. What are their opinions on children? Do they view children as sweet angels or evil crotch goblins?

Rei honestly has some very complicated opinions on children? She's always wanted children of her own ever since she was a little kid forcing Kakashi to play house with her. She'd always insist that when she grew up, she would become the first pregnant ninja on duty or something like that, and she'd stuff her baby doll up her shirt and run around pretending to throw shuriken, and wild stuff like that. As she gets older, though, Rei becomes really out of touch with how to interact with kids--that is, until Kakashi becomes the jonin leader of Team 7. Rei often finds herself struggling to relate to children or find ways to interact with them that don't feel awkward and forced. Over the years, however, she learns to adapt and more than anything trust her instincts around children and she ends up becoming a mother to six of her own (including one adopted child). And yes, she does inadvertently achieve her childhood "dream" of becoming a pregnant ninja on duty...in the form of giving birth to her first child on the battlefield of the Fourth Great Ninja War. It's a long story that basically highlights Rei's stubbornness and her affinity for making really, really bad decisions. Definitely not as cool or exciting as she had likely imagined it might have been as a kid.

The second set of questions, I'm going to ask for my OC, Sekkachi! She is Rei's childhood teammate and brutally-honest best friend, and who I would consider my second most developed OC behind Rei, if I'm being totally honest.

For Sekkachi:

16. What do they look for in a friend? A love interest?

Sekkachi doesn't exactly look for friends. She's certainly not a social person, and she isn't particularly fond of people, either. In an ideal world, however, the types of friends she aims to keep in her life are the ones who can prove their worth by breaking past her barriers and fighting through her bullshit in order to reach the long-lost vulnerable side of her. And this is the same for love interests, too. Sekkachi commonly has one night stands and casual sex with various women, but she will only ever truly open herself up to someone who proves that they can handle all the dark stuff that she hides in the back of her mind, all of her uncomfortable truths and irrational fears and overall vulnerability. She needs to feel extremely comfortable with someone before she can allow herself to be fully open with them, so it can take some time and some chiding but eventually, if it means enough to her, she'll open up and once she has, her loyalty knows no bounds.

24. What are your character’s special skills?

Sekkachi cannot use ninjutsu or genjutsu, like Rock Lee. Thanks to a chronic illness, her chakra network is kind of wonky and so her only option is taijutsu. The symptoms of her illness can make the physical demands of taijutsu challenging, which is why her family has never been successful in the ninja world, but Sekkachi does not let that stop her. She was paired up with Guy as a sparring partner from a young age, on the suggestion of Sekkachi's sensei Chikara, and ever since the two of them have been lifelong friends and spar every Wednesday afternoon. And really, who better to perfect your taijutsu with than the master, Might Guy? Sekkachi definitely gives him a run for his money every week, and it's that sort of challenge that they both really thrive off of.

39. What’s your character’s guilty pleasure?

Sekkachi will never openly admit this, but she secretly adores cozy things. Blankets, pillows, fuzzy robes. You name it, she's secretly hiding it in her closet. On the outside, she'll refuse to admit her love for comfort items because she thinks it makes her look weak and stupid but she absolutely cannot deny their benefit when it comes to her low spoons days. Whenever she's having a flareup, curling up in a giant, fluffy blanket inside perfectly crafted pillow nest is ideal.

[justcallmesailor]

May I please I have a Reign male ship please? I am a female, about 5'10 (sadly) with sickly pale skin (kinda goes with my weak immune system) with light blue, silvery eyes, and long dark red hair. I am told I'm kind, caring, selfless, a bit too ambitious, insecure and stubborn, but I will help anyone I can. I love reading, writing, and singing (musical theatre is my passion). I often put others before myself, which can effect me negatively but I care less. Thank you so much. I adore your writing

No problem. Also, thanks. I ship you with Bash! While he loves how selfless you are, it gets on his nerves sometimes. The combination of self-sacrificing tendencies and stubbornness the both of you exhibit often ends in lengthy “arguments” that mainly consist of who gets to actually sacrifice for the other. As soon as he find out you liked to write, he would constantly come up with crazy plots for you. Even though he knew you’d never use them, he enjoyed seeing the smile that would come to your face. He often leaves little notes in all of your favorite books, most of them cliche “love notes” of course. 

How you two met:

You met Bash many years ago when you both were kids. Your parents had sent you to French Court in an attempt to keep you from getting sick. Before you had officially met, you watched him from afar with a small bit of jealousy. He was always outside, whether it was running around for fun or for the purpose of learning, and you almost never were.

Eventually, one of your lessons had to be outside. That was when you had your first conversation with him. It was quite an awkward conversation, really, because both of you were trying to let the other speak first. You wish you could say it was love at first sight but, alas, it was not. The two of you were like every other child at that age, you had no interest in the opposite gender. You didn’t actually become friends until he covered for you when you wanted to go with him outside on a sunny day.

As you grew older and grew closer, the feelings started to develop. At first it was small signs that you liked each other, such as him being mesmerized while hearing you sing for the first time or you getting jealous when watching him flirt with other girls. Your interactions with each other were “saucier” when the two of you realized had any feelings. Both sides remained oblivious even though you and Bash were flirting with each other. Everyone noticed before the two of you, mostly because you two were extremely insecure when it came to romance.

You continued like this for awhile. The flirting would increase from time to time, whether it was you or Bash touching the other more in whatever way you could (pushing hair out of the face, friendly smack on the arm, poking the other, etc.), suggestive jokes, or cheesy pick up lines.

Your first date:

It was another one of those many nights in French court that was filled with drama and parties. You had withdrawn into one of the various halls, needing some quiet from the constant problems everyone seemed to have. You had found that, since arriving, you had turned into a therapist for just about every person in the court. You couldn’t bring yourself to say no when people asked if you were able to spare some time for them, though, so you were always busy hearing about everybody’s superficial drama.

That was how you found yourself on an overly luxurious couch, late at night, reading one of your various books. As you went to turn the page, another hand came into your view and turned it for you. You glanced up and found yourself lost in an aquamarine gaze.

“Bash.” You smiled. “(Y/N). Do you mind if I join you?”

You shook your head and he sat down next to you. It was a comfortable silence as you read. You could sense that Bash was looking over your shoulder, reading along with you. You chuckled and paused reading, “Should I read aloud? You’re reading with me, anyways.” He smiled and nodded. You rolled your eyes, smiling slightly as well; you began to read quietly since no one else was there. 

The pages started to fade together, your voice was working on autopilot now. This was mostly due to the arm resting on your shoulder and the hand in your hair. You stole a quick peek over at him only to find that he was currently staring at you. Both of you quickly looked at away and you knew that your face had a pink tint to it now. 

“Ba-” “(Y/-” At nearly the same time, you two turned to the other and were about to speak up. You laughed and gestured to him, “You first.” He sighed, knowing that if he disagreed you’d be caught in a loop again, “Fine. I was simply wondering if um…if you..” You set down the book, “Well? Get on with it..” He suddenly gained a serious expression, “I was wondering if you have any feelings for me.” 

Out of all the things he could’ve said right then, that was the last thing you expected. You were now caught like a fish out of water. What do you even say in response? Well, technically, you didn’t have to say anything. Thus, you nodded meekly.

An awkward moment fell between the two of you; you watched him, tense, and it appeared that he was fixated on looking at something outside the window. You frowned, “I’m sorry if I just messed things u-” It was impossible to finish that sentence because Bash suddenly turned and pressed his lips to yours. As you were trying to figure out what just happened, he pulled away slightly and murmured, “Good. I have feelings for you, as well.”

Who ships the two of you:

Francis does, of course. Seeing his brother happy makes him happy. He makes quite a few attempts to get to know you. You weren’t very good friends with Francis as a kid, seeing as most of your attention went to Bash, but you’re closer now that you’re essentially part of the family. Being with the king’s bastard child obviously draws attention to you but Francis makes sure to distinguish any rumors before they spread too far. He really doesn’t want to see the aftermath of any drama brought to you or Bash. Without your knowledge, many of your gifts are actually Francis’ idea because Bash is slightly clueless when it comes to you.

There you have it, folks! One of the first requests for the day. I’m trying to get everything in my drafts done (I currently have three more ships). Anything that arrives in my inbox will probably be at least a couple more days because I need to get my AP Language summer reading done. After three/four days it’s my own procrastination, though. Anyways, hope you enjoy reading this, as always!
