Ship potential: G'raha/Haurchefaunt, Ysayle/Yotsuyu & Minfilia/Moenbryda. Some unusual ones, as a treat!

This Meme/Request || Accepting

These were fun to discuss and think about! Thank you, Anon!

G'raha/Haurchefant

Right away we have to say that this would not be a romantic ship. G'raha isn't Haurchefant's type, and the pair just really would make much better friends. They both have a strong moral compass and deep love for their nation (Ishgard, Crystarium), and genuinely are just so kind-hearted at their core.

G'raha and Haurchefant would bond over their admiration for the WOL for sure, possibly to the point of embarrassing them a little. G'raha would also ask a ton about Estinien, and Haurchefant would end up teasing him about it!

The pair would have a lot of respect for one another's perserverance and inner strength, and constantly be the type to hype each other (and the WOL and anyone else who needed it) up.

Ysayle/Yotsuyu

Considering all she's been through, we think Yotsuyu would be sex-repulsed/aromantic. We acknowledge that not everyone who has been through similar trauma reacts this way, but Yotsuyu specifically is only interested in revenge. And she'd likely look down on anyone she considered attractive, anyway.

That being said -- Ysayle has such strong morals that these two likely couldn't survive being in a room together. We think Ysayle would attempt to sympathize with Yotsuyu upon learning her past, but Yotsuyu would immediately recoil from any sort of "pity" and insult her. Call her a dragonwhore, etc. And Ysayle would inevitably become wholly disgusted by Yotsuyu's blind hatred, as Yotsuyu has no interest in healing or breaking any sort of cycle of violence.

The only 'classic evil villain' moment Ysayle had was her cackle when she broke the protective seals on Ishgard, so she does have a tiny bit of potential to go off the deep end similar to Yotsuyu... but that was very brief, and it would likely take an even more tragic back story to get her to that point. Perhaps aesthetically Ysayle would think Yotsuyu is attractive, but her twisted personality would destroy any hopes of that evolving beyond aesthetic.

Who do you think would win in a Tsukiyomi vs Shiva fight though?

Minfilia/Moenbryda

Okay, THIS one we actually really like and could totally see being a thing! After all, we headcanon that Moenbryda and (the real) Yda had a thing when they studied in Old Sharlayan, so we know she likes blondes! And Minfilia appreciates a strong woman like herself.

Moenbryda would ask so many questions about Louisioux and how he was leading up to his death, and Minfilia would be happy to share all that she could. We forsee a lot of hanging out and talking over drinks/dinner for these ladies.

It would be a gradual working relationship turned friendship turned romance, but it wouldn't take a long time for it to happen! Yes, work with the Scions would come first and they'd remain professional throughout, but an occasional flirtatious joke would tip the others off. Thancred would probably be the last to know.

ex nerd! scientist! miguel o'hara x slutty! reader

part two here!

word count: 745

TW: smut, nsfw, d/s themes, mentions of pet play.

A/N: THIS IS INSPIRED BY @nymphomatique SO PLS CHECK THEIR ONE OUT!! their drabble rlly inspired me so i thought maybe i could add a little twist;) welcome to the club!

back in your college days, you were.. promiscuous, some would say. well, you were the biggest slut on campus. if your body count didn't say it all, then the rumours sure did.

you took chemistry, maths, physics and biology. you wanted to be a physics scientist, partially because of the thought of there being lots and lots of different universes, but mostly because the pay was brilliant.

miguel o'hara was your 'pet' back in your college days, per-say.

you used him for your homework, and in exchange you would fuck him, give him head, handjobs, you name it. you took miguel's virginity, and every bit of innocence he had left. he was totally smitten by you. i mean, a pretty, popular girl giving him attention no one ever did? sign him up.

miguel was the biggest loser you knew back then. he wasn't the most muscly, and he had those ridiculous black square glasses, and his outfits were shocking. he had a slight lisp due to his late braces, and his hair was far too long and he clearly struggled to maintain it. to keep it blunt, he wasn't cool at all. he was a loser, a simp, and a goody two-shoes. perfect as your little pet.

it wasn't until after graduation did you stop your little encounters. after leaving college, you blocked his number and left campus on the same day. you thought you'd never have to see that nerdy freak again. well, that's what they all say, right?

that was until you finally got a job at ALCHEMAX. you were a 'technological support scientist', which sounded smart but really all you got to do was watch all the better scientists do tests. you didn't mind, it did more then just pay your bills. hell, with the checks you're bringing in you could probably buy a new car in a few months!

you thought things were all sunshine and rainbows, until the thunder walked in. it's funny though, you didn't realise thunder looked like 6'9 tall and 310 pound of pure muscle and attractiveness. his braces were gone, his hair more clean and cut a little shorter, and his glasses just resting on top of his head, but you knew exactly who he was.

'm-miguel o'hara?!' you said, shocked. he turned around swiftly, looking down at you, before his eyes widened. 'y/n l/n?' he said, surprised. you both had become blushing messes. well, his glow up sure came after only 3 years.

'you.. work here?' you asked, absolutely awe-struck. 'i.. do. i am a technological scientist here. you work here too? why haven't i ever seen you around before?' he asked, intriuged. 'i-it's my first day here. you.. matured.' you said, clearly checking him out.

the man smirked. he actually smirked. the man who would whimper, begging to just get off on your shoe, smirked at you like he was in control. 'and you look as gorgeous as 3 years ago.'

your heart stopped. who was this man? this muscular, defined, confident, completely self aware man.. this wasn't miguel. there was no way.

'you..you're very different, miguel.' you said, a blushing mess. he chuckled, putting some latex gloves on. fuck, even his hands were attractive. 'well alot happens to a guy.' he says smoothly, his voice deeper. god this was going to be hard.

♡︎♥︎♡︎♥︎♡︎♥︎♡︎♥︎♡︎♥︎

that very night, you were spread out on the bed, and you didn't recognise the man above you.

3 years ago, a scrawny desperate nerdy little boy was on his knees, as if you were a goddess. and now, that very man was on top of you, kissing your neck so skilfully, as if he's done this for years. his thrusts had rhythm, as he grinded along your g spot with ease, you let out a gasp and a breathy moan, as he shushed you.

'sh, bonita.. you've changed. where's that dominatrix you were back in college days? why are you so.. obedient?~' he whispered in your ear, as you moaned again.

'i-i think i-it's y-you that changed, m-miguel..' you breathily said in response, as he chuckled. 'oh no, sweetheart, i'm still the same loser that was begging on his knees for you. just now, i've learnt how to please you as well as me.' he said in response, his hands moving down from your breasts to your hips, his cock deep inside you as he grinded his hips as you felt every inch.

god, is this heaven?

Shape Language in Cinderella Boy: An Analysis

Hello, world, I come with an analysis. Also known as more proof that Punko is a genius, in case you were in doubt.

So first of all, we know that violet is a beautiful iconic queen.

Look at her. Queen.

Violet's features are very distinctive - all of the keys are very distinctive. She has tall shoulder pads that slim down to a form-fitting dress that wraps around her ankles - in this way, she is shaped more or less like an arrow, pointing downwards.

Now let's look at Buddy's outfits throughout season one.

Violet gives him this same shape, time and time again. He is shaped like Violet is, through the clothes that he wears; this downward arrow sort of look. And it fits both of them; villans are commonly pointy. If you look at many villanous characters in media, you will see that triangles are incorporated into their designs all the time. Triangles are less friendly looking than other shapes - they make us think of sharp, pointy things. And Buddy's outfit contributes to it, too. The way his shoulder pads, fabric layers, and even boob windows are shaped all contributed to this sort of top-heavy, narrowing atmosphere. (It also makes him look pretty, which he is).

Now let's look at Silver.

Silver is less pointy than Violet because her job is the heroine, and when we see round things, we think of them as more comfortable objects - soft, smooth, not prickly to the touch. Friendly. But in addition to this roundness, Silver is shaped like an hourglass, a shape feminine and strong. And if you look at the outfits worn by Chase:

They often don this same hourglass shape. Interesting too because usallly the hourglass is more prominent on the bottom (most obvious in the 2nd image above), which means that if you simplify him, he is often shaped as a triangle with the base resting on the ground - while Buddy is an upside down triangle. They are each other's opposites, not only in archetype and personality, but in their simplest composites: their actual physical shape.

It works for Deacon and Bronze, and Prunella and Goldie, too. The outfits of the keyholders match the shapes of the keys.

Bronze is shaped like a rectangle...

Deacon is a gawky boy.

Square shapes are often sturdy and reliable. As the helper, this is Deacon and Bronze's whole job. In addition, you can see that sometimes Deacon also dons a trapezoid shape around his shoulders, with the shorter base on the top and the longer base on the bottom. This is most noticable with the Still Waters and RoBaM arc outfits, and it also contributes to this feel of "groundedness".

Finally, Goldie and Prunella. I think this is the most clear example.

Goldie is not pointy. He is round, friendly, and affable. His smile is rounded, his eyes are round, even the tips of his hair do not sharpen to a point. He has the same roundness that Silver does, particularly in his shoulders (REMEMBER THIS, THIS WILL BE IMPORTANT LATER), and his armor gives him another larger circle to more or less center the two smaller circles. Thus, Goldie is shaped like Mickey Mouse.

And it is very. Very. Very obvious with Prunella.

Because she is a kid. She's innocent, childish, carefree - I wouldn't say playful, nessecarily, but her age alone implies that she is much more of this rounded shape than the older characters.

And these clothes support their personalities. Like a bow or an hourglass-shaped dress, Chase is feminine and cute; Deacon is sensible and grounded, reliable. Buddy is all triangles, he's prickly and triangles also have a proven visual appeal to them that Buddy is well able to match. And Prunella has shapes of circles and hearts and semicircles in her outfits - what I like most about her shape language is that even though I illustrated her skirt as a circle, it is often flat on the bottom, which ALSO makes her seem grounded, just like Deacon's trapezoid.

Buddy's shoulder pads intriuge me most. Because they are all very pointy. Look at his cat outfit, or those over-the-top shoulder pads in Sick Day. All except for one arc.

Still Waters.

The finale.

Because of the way Buddy's outfit is, he still has the arrow shape that Violet does. However, this time, due to the fluff, his shoulders are much more rounded.

Like Silver.

Like Goldie.

Like a hero.

Like, Y'ALL.

ROUND:

POINTY:

ROUND.

Because this arc, this moment, is when Buddy becomes a hero. He stops with the triangle-shaped shoulder pads that have until now been cohesive with villainry, and donned the roundness to his shoulders that the hero archetypes have, via the fluff.

And it's really, really cool.

And what's also cool about it is that it doesn't only extend to these outfits!! Compare Deacon and Chase's houses, for example; there is shape language there. It's everywhere in a lot of media, and it is so cool to me that it was intergrated into Cinderella Boy in this way.

Sadly I already typed this out once before, accidentally deleted it, and had to rewrite it - so I'm going to stop there, lol. I promise the analysis of the Still Waters fit was much more cohesive the first time, but I think the point still gets across

I did it. Tada

The last talon (among the many others)

While Argile introduced me to many more talons they barely gave me any mind. Mouse, the ex skywing solider was the final one who seemed rather intriuged in me.

Mouse is a small and scrawny skywing. He coughed little flickers of flame every so often almost as if his body kept trying to make fire. Despite his size and lack of strong flame he is crafty. Every plan he makes works out perfectly. Im quite impressed and he seems rather nice... though he can get nosy

He says he joined the talons of epace because he saw the destruction of war and wanted it to end. The whole reason he was exiled from the skywings was due to wanting peace. I feel bad as his years as a soldier seem to weigh heavy on him

overall he is a decent dragon to hang around

LIAR

LIAR! LIAR! LIAR!

HES DOOMED ME! THAT BACKSTABBING SNAKE!

Mouse ran back to the skywing queen and ran his big chicken head mouth off about my visions and prophecy! The whole of pyrrhia knows of me! THE SKYWING QUEEN HAS A BOUNTY ON MY HEAD.

Whats worse is that none of the other talons seem to care.... Argile just shrugged and told me to stay out of sight.

I... I.. dont know what to do... I dont know where to go... I...why couldnt I have gotten a vision of this? Am I just some cosmic messenger? Some meaningless pawn?

The moons have forsaken me....

Hello, hello!!! I love your writing so much, it's just so great and captures the vibes of these characters so well! I have been Inspired by your Vergil and Dante quotes and was wondering if it's okay to request those two with a complete chaos gremlin partner. Like Vergil has to keep track of the Yamato because it will be swiped by his partner who will use it to create chaos and accidentally open portals to who knows where. God forbid his partner accidentally execute a judgement cut

i love chaos gremlin!reader that can just do what Vergil does but without limitations. just for the shits and giggles of it all. i hope this was okay for you. :)

Vergil, the moment he finds that the Yamato wasn't in the place he had last left it, knew that he had made an major mistake that would only end in chaos and something most likely being destroyed with his sword firmly within your eager hands.

'foolishness, you do not understand the power of which you hold within your hands.' He had onced hissed at you upon the first time you had snatched the sword from under his nose, his piercing eyes firmly locked on the unsheathed weapon you held so carelessly.

'did someone say power?' you replied as within a blink of an eye you had slashed a portal into existance, much to Vergil's surpise at your seemigly effortless control of his most valued weapon, just as you cackled and entered it with no knowlege of where you'd end up.

Especially so had Vergil not acted fast as he did and ran into the portal after you...only to drag you back home by the collar of your shirt, reeking and coated head to toe in the foul sulphuric smelling blood of your enemies, tearing the Yamato from your iorn clad grip and uttering one last 'foolishness' as he helped get you clean. Needless to say Vergil was intriuged at how you, someone who had less experience with a sword like his, has somehow managed to acomplish such a feet as opening a portal within the first minute of wielding it.

It went against everything he's ever known and he even felt a little upstaged by you in that initial meeting, Dante told him to be cautious of leaving things in your presence, but he didn't think you'd attempt to created and unleash the most purest forms of chaos to satiate your seemigly never ended boredom; And that in itself was what made you quite a dangerous person.

So ever since Vergil had made sure to keep an close eye on the Yamato, mainly by keeping the dangerous sword within the sheath on his hip, and making sure to keep it away from you as much as possible for the bettement of his mental health and everyone else in general. Yet Vergil was aware that while this might the solution for now, your chaos would not die with a whimper but instead rage on within you, biding the time in silence until you could get your hands on his sword once more when his guard was lowered enough for you to take advantage.

Something of which Vergil would keep a close eye on you for, even when you greeted him so sweetly and kissed him on the cheek, the man knew what you were capable of; all in thanks of being constantly underestimated as a person incapable of being much of a threat. You secretly thrived off of the asumptions people made of you as it only made the chaos you created to be tethered to someone else.

You certainly knew how to play your cards to your advantage and Vergil could respect that at the very least. What he didn't respect was your constant need to steal the Yamato as though it were a toy and not something that would easily kill you if proven extremely careless, and yet Vergil was often left in need of anwsers when you prove yourself capable of wielding his sword on countless of occasions.

He remebered a mission a while back where you had SOMEHOW performed the most perfect Judgement cut the half devil had ever seen in his entire life; Your form was perfect, your grip was perfect, almost as if you had watched him perform the move million of times to replicate it without issue.

'NOW IM FEELING MOTIVATED!' You'd exclaim as you exacuted Judgement cut for a second time as if there was no cool down period for you in the slightest, no limitations to what you could do with the Yamato as you were giving out Judgement cut after Judgement cut, and at such a pace that Vergil himself had a hard time keep up with it; How that was even remotely possible is up for debate as Vergil himself was still very much in denial of the entire debarkle.

Even when Dante asks him about it teasingly, Vergil acts as though his brother had said something not founded within reality, though not before stabbing him as per their dynamic.

Vergil does love you, but you sure were more the what most bargined for that was for certain. So don't be surprised when your being squirted at with a spray bottle by him in order to be kept away from the Yamato...you have caused enough mayhem for one day.

H... hi 😋 would you mind making some headcannons/thoughts about the suspicious man/bellham??? :3 (aka this dude)

//Desc: Uuuu, now he’s an odd bunch, that’s for sure! Ever since he appared near The Hub, he intriuged me deeply, what’s up with this freak-o-zoid and why is he so freakishly captivated by Enas? We may never know, he is one suspicious man after all! He is super cool though, his design is so unsettling (especially his lovely face) but his voice is by far my favorite part about him. Like yeah keep talking handsome, speak your truth. But I certainly have a thought or two about the old man, thanks for the request!!! \\

. 𖦹˙— 🔔 Bellham / Suspicious Man General Headcanons 🧵 . 𖦹˙—

————————————————————————————

Bellham not only has a rather suffocating gaze, most people complain of a low screeching sound, dizziness, slight nausea, blurred vision and even sudden fatigue after looking into his eyes, the symptoms prove to be similar to one of a gas leak. His voice brings ringing into the ear for a few minutes after people listen to it. So think twice about having a give-and-take with him that’s longer than a minute.

He, like various other creatures, has regulared speech, his chopped, interruptive pattern confusing many. Unlike what most people speculate, he isn’t under any curse that permits him from speaking ordinarily. He chose to speak as such, however nobody can quite put their finger on when exactly he decided to do so, nor what had perhaps triggered it.

A town gossip says he used to be a Shaman, much like the other one in Seal House, although whenever somebody brings up the topic to him, he simply grits his teeth, laughing under his hissing breath.

The Six Eyed People seem to be afraid of him and avoid him at all cost, but also refuse to speak of him.

Bellham has been around for longer than anybody in The Hub can remember. Nobody know where he crawled out of, only one thing is certain. Whenever an Ena comes about, Bellham’s interest is sparkled up. When he first noticed the burgeoned amount Enas, he thought he has fallen victim to some kind of Truman effect, and spiralled into madness about them. The lunacy quickly blossomed into maniac fascination, Bellham began to study, to observe various Enas to soothe his infatuation. His deviant tastes made him obsessed with the idea of Enas, not quite them, but the thought of them. He is keen on correcting any mistakes people would have about an Ena, like their names written as ƎNA.

His henchmen cannot talk, but they do understand Bellham and can communicate with different ringing patterns of their bell head. They admire him and hang on his lips all day, every word of his sounding like gospel to them. Bellham is fond of his henchmen and enjoys the admiring looks he gets from them. In return, he likes to show them tricks that he performs with his red threads. He is quite good at it.

Bellham kind of acts like a homeless madman in public who would shout at people to tell them about how the world is about to end and the apocalypse is near. Only with much more laughter. He is also those kinds of old people who come up to you and mumble a joke that only they understand. Just smile and nod.
