Could you do relationship headcanons for our big deal boys Jerry and Brad (and Jason and Lineman too if you want) 👉👈 Or maybe them eating dinner with reader for the first time in a while and realizing how much they miss reader?

Hi Anon! Thanks for requesting :) I can't believe I haven't done more boyfriend/relationship hc?! This has been sitting in my drafts forever and soooorta is what you asked for.

Lookism guys as YOUR boyfriend hc

Uhhh almost everyone here (Brad, Jason, Lineman, Jerry, Jake, Sinu, Daniel, Jay, Vasco, Jace, Zack, Vin, Goo, Johan, Eli, Warren, DG, Samuel, Xiaolong, Ryuhei, Eugene, Jihan, Jibeom, Hudson + crumb for Hangyul, Taejin)

Brad Lee

Happy go lucky most of the time. Brad will make you smile and laugh, your best friend as well as your boyfriend. Don't be fooled, just because he can be silly doesn't mean he doesn't take this relationship seriously. Sincere and committed, will do what he needs to make you and him work. A girlfriend privilege, or chore if you're being honest, is constantly shaving his head. If he pisses you off? Shave a stripe down the middle and hide the razor.

Jason Yoon

Self professed as not that great with words, and can be a little standoffish but worships the ground you walk on. Loyal to a fault, and waits on you hand and foot. He's not the most physically affectionate but anticipates your every need, doing things for you before you even realise you wanted them. Self-sacrificing with Big Deal and as your boyfriend. Make sure his needs are taken care of, he deserves it!

Lineman

Listen, this guy bullshits a lot. He's full of bravado and confidence but he is surprisingly earnest when it comes to you. Everything may be exaggerated and said flippantly, but Lineman does think you're the most beautiful, the smartest, the absolute best. No competition. Completely fearless with anything you throw at him. Whether that's something adventurous in the bedroom or a life plan 10 years in the future.

Jerry Kwon

If he is Jake's sword, then he is your shield. Most of the time he barely needs to do anything, just being with him makes sure thugs and troublemakers will stay away. Nevertheless, protects you from danger and cuddling with Jerry will melt all your stress away. Loves you as much as he respects Jake. Which is a whole frickin' lot. Probably more than you would ever know. A big teddy bear, and can be shy - needing you to make the first moves or read his moods.

Jake Kim

You've done it. You've reached the peak. Maximum good times, minimum mental breakdowns. He is stable, a great caregiver and maybe the funniest person you will ever meet, or at least he likes to think so. Does tend to prioritise Big Deal over your relationship and being his girlfriend. You need to be very understanding. Shame he spends a lot of time away from you dealing with the crew but he more than makes up for it with kisses and cuddles and attention (where he can spare it).

Sinu Han

Who do you think taught Jake how to respect women? Gapryong? Nah. It's this girlboss. Didn't used to have much time nor money as Big Deal boss. Now at least he has lots of time and will make sure you are top prority. Literally got yourself a whole househusband. He has nothing better to do than look after you. When you're apart, loves making and sending little videos of himself to you to cheer you up. And it's not hard once you see his beaming bright smile.

Daniel Park

Very sweet, Zack might have stole his first kiss but he wants you to be the first for everything else! His obliviousness to all the girls hitting on him would piss you off though. Once you've spoken to him and he realises, he'll apologise profusely and makes sure it's very clear that he's taken. "Yes, I've got a girlfriend. Yes, I'm very happy. Please I'm not interested!" Very easy for you to make him blush. He might have heard a lot of flattery, but just tell him how cute he looks today and he will flush bright red.

Jay Hong

Are you ready to be spoiled? Have all your whims fulfilled? This man will literally go to the moon and back for you, and he could pay for it to. Loves spoiling you, shopping with you is one of his favourite pastimes but enjoys spending time with you even if it's chilling with the pups. Writes you little messages and notes for you to find throughout the day. Very sentimental and keeps a memento of pretty much everything. Apart from having cash for days, other major girlfriend privileges include seeing his eyes and riding around on his motorbike. Which is pretty sexy, not gonna lie.

Vasco Tabasco

This cinnamon roll!! What else is there to say about him! He's innocent and naive and doesn't really know how to be the best boyfriend but he's so eager to learn and to make you happy. Make a big deal out of every milestone and anniversary. Looks forward to big occasions like meeting the parents until the actual day comes and he almost passes out from nervousness. Being with the head of Burn Knuckles means you've automatically adopted the rest of the gang too. Watch out for your sanity.

Jace Park

Goes a bit too hard on the romance front, but unfortunately picked most of it up from kdrama or romance novels. Imagine his surprise when after your first fight you actually did want space and wasn't pleased when he turned up on your doorstep. Kind hearted and good intentioned. He's dotes on you and a great listener. Insufferable to the rest of Burn Knuckles as he won't shut up about you. Once he's with you, he is WITH you. He may be 'married to Burn Knuckles', but in a relationship, you two are as good as married. And yes, he is the best househusband. Obviously.

Zack Lee

BIG softie. Clingy, a little obsessive but He. Loves. You. We've seen how he is with Mira. Being in a reciprocal relationship with someone would turn that up to ELEVEN. He will always always try his best, and gets a little insecure and sad if he lets you down but to you it doesn't matter. Seeing his effort is enough and you make sure to let him know. Will walk to the ends of the earth for you, you barely even have to ask. Also will deny he's a simp to everyone as they look on at him incredulously. Seriously? It's the most obvious frigging thing!

Vin Jin

Oh my god this guy. He will play his music for you at ANY opportunity. It's a good job you love him, otherwise you would need to jam some chopsticks in your ears. You can't help but be charmed though seeing him doing what he loves, so you take up the role as his number 1 fan. Plays it cool but he is very clingy. Probably text you with 'wyd' and if you don't respond in the next 10 mins, expect a barrage of messages. And if you're busy and haven't seen him for a day or 2? He's on your doorstep: "Here I got you a gift. Me."

Gun Park

He's a surprisingly good partner. He doesn't like wasting time and least of all his own so he knows already you're a good fit with him. The fact that he agreed to be your partner means that he already holds you in exceptionally high regard and cares about you a great deal. Still a walking red flag though. Especially cold and callous when he's had a bad day or you ask him about something he doesn't want to answer. You can go hours or even days not talking after your fights until he finally asks if you can hear him out. He's not stupid. He knows the way he reacts isn't how you should treat a partner and promises to keep working on it

Goo Kim

A rollercoaster ride of a boyfriend. In an established relationship, he can be exceptionally clingy. You better be patient and on the same wavelength as him or you're going to have a bad time. Your nights together can flit from watching anime to light arson in the blink of an eye. At least you can't say he's boring. Soft in his own way for you, and spoils you with your demands and requests, and his money! Really does let you get away with a little too much.

Johan Seong

He was shocked when he realised he cared more about you than Eden and Miro. You were too, you know what they mean to him... And now what you mean to him too. A little feral and not the best at expressing himself but if you have the patience to support him then he'll have the patience to try. Do not offer to share food with this man. Not a bite, no snacks, nothing. He would take advantage. The definition of give him an inch and he'll take a mile. Leave your plate unattended, and the food will be gone the moment you're back. Eden and Miro will get the blame.

Eli Jang

Hope you're ready for 2 cuties in your life because Eli and Yenna are a package deal. Eli never thought he would get the fairytale happy family but with you it's actually happening. He loves planning family dates and seeing you and Yenna together. He's already carved out a future for you and him otherwise he wouldn't encourage you and Yenna to bond.

Warren Chae

Absolutely adores telling you he loves you. With you the words flow, and so do the compliments. In his quieter moments, you catch him staring at you a lot until hegrabs your hand and gives you three squeezes instead. I. Love. You. Privately, renames himself from 'Gangdong's Mighty Warren Chae' to 'Y/N's Mighty Warren Chae'. Super silly, but it makes you giggle everytime. He means it though. Will look after you any way he can.

DG

Keeps you out of the spotlight. Please don't be insecure, it's not that he doesn't want to be seen with you - he's just protecting you from public scrutiny and his horde of fans. Generally cool and aloof but with you he can be surprisingly soft and romantic. Truly a k-pop idol capturing the heart of millions. You will become his biggest stan, and he would find that equal parts amusing and endearing. As long you are kept a secret, he will tell the media he has a special someone, someone that really knows him. Makes you and the general public melt everytime he is heard talking about you.

Samuel Seo

Aw Sammy. He just wants some praise and love and you readily offer it to him. Puts up a lot of walls at first before seeing that you don't care who he is or where he's from and love him for him. Definitely one to wait for you to say I love you and fall first before he could reciprocate. He needs to make sure this is real and you are real. Sometimes though, the moment just feels too right for him to keep his feelings to himself... Spends obscene amounts on you to try and impress you. It doesn't. Not really. Ok maybe a little bit.

Xiaolong

One to go to extremes to please the one he loves. Old example: Vivi. Please see updated example: You. There is nothing he will not do for you. To the point that it terrifies you a bit and you need to calm him down. "No, if you don't actually want to go on an ice cream run at 3am that's completely fine! I was only joking about punching my boss, please don't do it!!" Hope you're ready for an unconventional sex life because this man will do what he can to satisfy you, penislessly

Ryuhei Kuroda

Theres a long list of simps in Lookism and he's close to the top of the list. Hes an avid texter but since he likes to follow you everywhere, you wouldn't know. Despite how much of a shit he can be, genuinely respects you and thinks the world of you. Will happily and without hesitation sock anyone that says a bad word about you. Unlike Xiaolong, all in working order downstairs since you met. You have no issues getting him to stand to attention. Have fun!

Eugene

A bit of an absentee boyfriend. He has a lot on his plate. He never regret his position or what he's achieved until you started dating, and now he wishes you could spend more time together. When he's with you though, he's WITH you. You have his full attention. He even turns his phone off. His assistants know that they can't reach him when he's with you. Building burning down? Nope. Don't care.

Jihan Kwak

You thought he was a troublemaker at first. And you would be right. He can run rings around you, teasing and a little mean, the cause of many headaches. All the words are meant with love though. Just look at the way he looks at you as he calls you an idiot. This guy is impossibly soft for you. Make sure you don't let him get away with too much though. As the youngest and spoilt, he can be bratty and a little inconsiderate. He's no fool. Tell him and he will adjust his behaviour.

Jibeom Kwak

There's something so fun about stealing the clothes from your teddy-bear boyfriend. So what if his taste is terrible and ugly as hell. Seeing you in his t-shirt or shorts or even boxers will absolutely break his brain. A little dense, but very trusting - bit like our other cinnamonroll, Vasco. Always well-intentioned, but you may need to be explicit with him. Don't worry, he's a quick learner. Loves you an awful lot and has no problem telling the whole world, even if that means teasing from his brothers.

Hudson Ahn

There's two very people that are at the tippity top of Hudson's list. Taesoo, and you. Your boyfriend is your sun. Quiet and a little stoic, watching you with an intensity and a little smile on his face that takes your breath away. Especially when he's usually cold and reserved with most people, the fact that you can make him look like that just being in your presence? The BEST. Blessed with one of the better asses in Lookism that even Heat Daniel couldn't resist. Always rolls his eyes whenever you grope him, you not being able to resist a quick squeeze even as you walk by, but he could never tell you no.

Hangyul Baek (here's a crumb)

Looks at you a lot with a smile on his face. Which is sweet you suppose, if he wasn't a plastic surgeon and scrutinishing faces and bodies all day. And then he calls you beautiful. A true beauty. And you preen, happy with the compliment.. until. Hold on. What exactly does he mean?!

Taejin Cheon (here's a crumb)

Wew, this guy is flashy. Which is great if that's your thing. Will likely get you kitted out in all sorts of designer brands, even more so than Samuel Seo. Despite not shown as having any tattoos, has the vibe that he would get your name tattooed on his neck. If you break up? Will just get a line put through it lol.

How Lookism characters would eat you out

- Daniel, vasco, zack, gun, goo, Dg

Daniel Park

He’s a virgin. Cant expect much homie

I’d expect him to be a quick learner so he’d look at you throughout it, very experimental with it

Soft kitten licks soft kitten licks soft kitten licks.

Oh? You like it here instead? Okay! He’ll go crazy 💯

Id see him as quite shy and nervous as he wouldn’t know what he’s doing though he’d get more comfortable and confident with reassuring words!

As he gets more used to it you’ll be in tears

Soft and sensual licks, his face buried inside you flicking his tongue the way he knows drives you crazy

UI Daniel on the other hand… a menace. Absolute menace.

Forget walking bby you’ll forget how to think all together

Goodluck soldier

Vasco

I LOVE VASCO

Maybe it’s bc his milkers are so large you get delusional or maybe it’s bc his abs are all sweaty and he looks hot but theres SOME CHARM THERE

Vascos so cute

[gatorbites-imagines]

Lookism characters with a male reader with squishable looking chests or/and butts

Lookism characters

Headcanons

Since theres a million different Lookism characters I just picked a some of my faves.

Zack Lee

Zack is the type who definitely notices and takes a peek every now and then, but he wouldn’t go out of his way to touch you unless he’s completely sure that’s what you want.

He also glares at anyone who looks at you wrong or talks lewdly about you. He will start fights if he has too, even after his training with Gongseob, that’s one of the few ways to make Zack see red. You’ll have to pull him away or tell him to stop when he gets like this, best way to do so is to hug him, maybe give him a kiss.

Vasco/Euntae Lee

Vasco takes his respect juice, so he would never touch or grab without being strictly allowed too. Honestly in the beginning he probably didn’t even realize, since he’s well… Vasco. He would realize how others leer at you though, and glare at them because staring like that makes them a bad guy.

But when he does realize he’s the type to be flushed about it, but again he would never stare to grab unless you tell him he’s allowed too. Then he’s more likely to use your chest as a pillow.

Warren Chae

Another one who devours the respect juice, you left him speechless the first time you met and he had to put great efforts into introducing himself, always scolds himself for looking at your chest or butt.

Even after you started dating, he always catches himself looking and immediately looking away with a blush, at some point your gonna have to just pull him to your chest and let him rest his head there as he goes beet red. After this he will allow himself to look, and even touch, but he’s still shy.

Vin Jin

Vin never stopped himself from looking since he’s wearing sunglasses, but he can’t see very well with them on, so he probably never realized just how squishy and touchable your chest and butt was. He will throw down with anyone who talks about you though, since you’re his partner.

Then the first time he takes his glasses off around you, he says and audible “damn…” when he sees. This results in you smacking him and he just laughs and hugs you, of course copping a feel because how can he not when you are right there.

Jake Kim

Can’t stop himself form looking every now and then, because how can he not when your so attractive to him, he enjoys when you sit on his lap too since he can support your weight with a hand under your butt, but he doesn’t grope you just hold you.

He doesn’t take anyone talking lewdly about you or catcalling you well, and because your Jakes boyfriend the rest of Big Deal wouldn’t put up with it either. Afterwards he makes sure your alright, please hug him, he wont initiate it himself but he loves it.

Sinu Han

The biggest respect juice drinker, would never look at your chest or butt because he wouldn’t want to be that type of creep, though he has to admit you are very attractive. He would at times make you wear his jacket or clothes, not to cover up but because he likes when you wear his stuff.

Is in absolute heaven if you let him rest his head on your chest or your butt, he just wraps his arms around you and lays there in his own little world. Please kiss his forehead and brush his bangs out of his face, he’s so sweet to you.

Johan Seong

So blushy and flustered, especially if you wear tight shirts or pants around him. To everyone else Johan is tough and scary, but to you he’s just sweet and so embarrassed because he has no idea how this whole dating thing works.

You’ll have to tell him its okay to look and touch, and after that he always has his hand in your back pocket or rests his head against your chest when he’s had a long day. You are his favorite pillow in the world.

Hudson Ahn

Hudson would never be the type to stare or touch you since he’s worked in places that had a lot of those creeps and he’s always looked down on them. This also results in him being protective of you when those creeps look your way.

Has made you wear his jacket more than once to cover you from prying eyes as he goes to deal with said creeps. Hudson is also the type to walk around with his hand in your back pocket or on your hip, not to cop a feel like many others would but just to be close to you.

[inzsanewrites]

Lookism - PDA

Daniel Park

It’s a bit foreign to him since has no prior experience. So at first he’s very shy with it and even hesitates before he even tries to hold your hand. As your relationship progresses and his confidence grows he is more natural with it but outright telling him things you prefer he not do in public and encouragement of certain acts of affection is highly appreciated.

In most situations, public and private he just likes being close to you or touching in some sort of way. Your touch and presence is always something that’s comforted him greatly. So he won’t have a full in make out session in public but he won’t disagree with it if you do it in the when your in a more private place.

James Lee

Little to no PDA exists at all. Since he’s an idol and everyone knows how crazy fans get when celebrities have a romantic relationship of any sort and he wants you to be safe, he rarely approaches in public. Now he will keep an eye on you and likewise have hidden security for you, he won’t have any physical contact with you if it’s not necessary and any loving words are so quiet that the room has to be silent enough for a pin to drop if you want to hear it. Sometimes he gets tired of this and will look for a remote place just so you two can have a proper date.

In private it’s a different story. Since he is in public quite often he’s a bit touch-starved. He’s far more passionate and often initiates any sort of physical activity, be it kissing, hugging, touching, or any bedroom activities. He talked more often too and a lot of suggestive things are said so try not to get too flustered.

Vasco

Regardless of private or public, he’s very affectionate (not sexually though). Although Vasco is very unintentional with his touches as it’s more of him being comfortable with you with you.

He wants to feed the ducks? He’s holding your hand and dragging you along.

You look particularly cute that day? He holds your face and tells you the exact same thing.

He’s about to fight a bad guy? Vasco picks you and placed you somewhere safe.

Even if you’re not very comfortable with it, never holding back with you it’s something subconscious he does so you may find a hand holding yours when he’s not really thinking about it.

Thanks for waiting!

KOBY X PIRATE READER

EP: 1113, RUN KOBY!

"I'm sorry! I won again!" Said the pirate, "you guys sure have a lot of dree time. Now, give me the keys to the cells." Said, perona. "Who the all are you!?"

"Hey." Perona walks closer to the two pirates, "hold your tongue, you fool." She said. "What did you just say!?" The man yelled, "You have a lot of nerves, young lady. " Perona laughs.

"Is 'shut up' easier for you to understand?" Perona summoned her powers and her ghost apper, "kneel down." She said. "Negative... hollow!" Perona ghost come out, "Negative! Negative!" Each ghost went to pirate chest.

"I'm sorry that I have less courage than a water flea." He said, "I wanna quit pirating and live quietly in a prison." Said the other. Perona smirked and laughed, then got the keys. "I got them!" She said, "Good, let hurry up before someone sees us, " you said, appearing from the shadow .

Perona pouts, "Geez, no need to be bossing!" said Perona as she moved. You and Perona walk, look every each cell to see much of skeleton. "They're all out of spirit..." said Perona.

"What did blackbeard do to them?" You said, then you and Perona saw someone doing upside down push up, and you realize it, koby. "Koby!" You said Koby looked at you, and he collapsed, "Ouch! Ow, ow, ow..."

"So this Koby, the boy you looking for?" Said Perona, Koby look up, "(Y/N)... and Perona!? What are you doing?" said koby. "I'm here to save you," you said, "and I'm here to my captain, moria," said Perona.

Koby was shocked, "Wait, (Y/N), are you working with moria?" He ask, "what!? No, Perona asked me to take it to blackbeard Island and make an alliance." You answered. "But (Y/N), I'm a navy soldier... moria is a pirate" he says.

At the bar, where pirates are drinking and man barge in. "I have big news! Captian koby has escaped!" he shouts, "Are you serious!?"

"Ya-hoo! Now that he's escaped, he's no longer commodores quarry, right?!" Said the pirate, "how much will we get if we captur him?!" She asks. The pirates were excited to capture koby and start looking for him.

You and koby walked with blackbeard slaves, trying to get out. "Everyone! We're almost there. hang in there!" Said koby, as he's in piggyback ride on you. The slaves walked, "koby-san, thank you for saving slaves like us..."

"Hold on. Don't call yourself a slave! You're all unfortunate victims who were captured by pirates. I'm a navy soldier! And I'll save you at any cost." He's says. Pizarro, making an angry face as see you and koby saving the slaves. "Pizarro-san! What's the matter!?"

Pizarro sees more slaves are free, "I feel a tickle on the left side of my chest-meow. That's where slaves are held before the sale..." Then pizarro saw you and koby running, pizarro opened his mouth. "Are they breaking out!?"

"The slaves escaped!? Can we hunt them all, pizarro-san?!" Pizarro, look at them angrily, "don't be silly! You guys are so savages! Bring them all back! Don't even kill koby! Or I'll tell teach!" He said.

The slaves were scared. "Why does that rock talk?! He knows that we're here!" Koby looked at the slaves, "let's hurry up!" He shouted. But slaves decided to give up, "What?" You said, "This is it for us... just run away before we slow you down." He said.

"Are you kidding me!? Bu-" but you were got of koby, "everyone, cheer up. Don't give up hope! We'll be the bait!" Said koby, "what?!" You ask. "So make sure you all get away! Well then... we'll meet again!"

You and koby take off, the slaves cheer for you, and thank you guys. Shiryu, look outside, "Why don't you capture them yourself, pizarro?" He asked. Pizarro forms himself, "then teach will get mad at me later! Whenever I move, I end up breaking things-meow."

Then pizarro noticed someone sitting on a bubble while it floated up. "Can I go?" Said vasco, "vasco shot. What are you gonna do-meow?," Pizarro asks, vasco smiles and drinks the shake.

"If I set the town on fire, they'll have nowhere to run." He said. "Hey, don't do that! That would be a huge fire-meow! Teach would get pissed-meow!" Vasco shouts, "no problem. Leave it to me!" Said vasco.

"No-meow! We just finished repairing Rocky Port!" While asco and pizarro started Augering, you and koby look at directions to see nothing. "Okay, (Y/N), you can put me down now." Said koby, getting off your back, "are you sure? Cause that ball is heavy, " you said.

"Don't worry about it. I'll just pick it up." He says, "Okay, let get moving!" You said, running, koby run as well. "We need... we need to buy more time!" He says, then koby saw a group of pirates, "(Y/N) over here." Said koby.

You follow koby, "we can't go that way, either!" But koby bump to someone that made you pissed off. "Oh, you look cute and doclie, but you're surprisingly bold..." She said, "Hey! You better watch your mouth, or I'll kill you!" You said walking closer to this woman.

"Oh! This boy is your boyfriend? Well, he'll be worth a lot of money when I capture him!" She shouts, you grab koby hand and start running, "I found him! Right here!" The woman shouts.

"Shit, it seems that they found us!" You said the pirates start chasing you guy and shooting. And almost shoot koby glasses, "Okay, that it's!" You scream, you summon the shadow of the pirate, making their shadow attack them.

"What the!? My shadow is attacking me!" The pirates stop chasing you, but there still more. You and koby have to keep moving to give more time to the slaves to escape. "(Y/N) is here!" One of them shouts. 'shit, they know it's me! Hope they come here now!' You thought.

Koby rember what Teach says when he was captured.

"Hey! Koby, the hero!" Teach laughs, "koby the hero, I want to turn this island... this pirate island... into a full-fledged nation! A world government-affiliated nation!" Teach laughs, then sit down.

"I'm gonna be the king! Blackbeard kingdom! What do you think!?" He asks koby, "That's ridiculous. There's no way it'd be accepted! It's a country of criminals!" Koby yelled.

"Hey, don't ruin someone else's dream! I'll negotiate with them using you as a bargaining chip."

"If the government and the navy start negotiating with terrorists, we're doomed! And you're wasting your time. Because... I'm a member of SWORD!" Said koby, Teach was confused.

"Sword? What the hell is that?" Teach questions, "Oh, I see... this isn't gonna go well. Give up on the trade, Teach. SWORD..." kuzan walk towards koby, kneel down and pat koby's head. "That means... he's a navy soldier but also not. He surrendered his navy code." Teach was a bit confused.

"SWORD is a group of... navy soldiers who have submitted their resignations. So they can pick a fight with the four emperors without permission from above. They can also do whatever they like and disregard any orders."

"They're wild-card commandoes! In exchange, the navy is in no way responsible for their actions and can fire them anytime." Teach laughs, "I see! That's the difference between the half-wits who are waiting for permission to fight us and the ones who just charge in without a care in the world!"

"I like that style. I get it now! But... I'm not changing my plan! I'll try anyway! Even if you're a SWORD member, people call you a hero, so I wonder if the navy can stick to the decision of abandoning you. I'll ask the public!"

Koby was shocked. "Then the government can't remain unblemished! Zahaha! Until then, lock him up! I can't wait! Don't let him escape!" End of the flashback, you and koby started running.

Koby, remember how you make a deal with Perona in order to save him. 'I cooperated with the pirate... but necessary knows the law!' Koby thought himself. "Instead of keeping guard, I wanna hunt five star, too." Then the pirate saw a navy ship heading towards.

"What's that!?" He asks. You and koby find a best hiding place so the pirate won't find you two. "I hope those who escaped are all fine..." said koby, you look at him, and a loud explosion erupted.

"Tree navy soldiers showed up at the port!" The pirates scream, "took them long enough to get here!" You said. "What? Navy soldiers?! No way!" Said koby.

"Hurry up!" You and koby hide while the pirate runs past you, "They're strong! Be careful!" They shout. More explosion erup, koby look at you with surprise look, "(Y/N), did someone come to rescue me?!" Koby ask.

You looked at him, "Yeah! It took them forever to come, someone call me about your kidnapping and asked me if I rescued if they didn't make it, but finally!" You said. Three navy attacked the pirates, "Who are they?! Why are they so strong?!"

"They're heading towards the center of the town! What do they want!?" The pirates ask, "how should I know?! Shoot them!" They start shooting at them, but it didn't work. "What? Guns don't work on them?!"

One of them decided to slice the navy soldiers, but it didn't work as well. Then, the building starts to move, "h-hey... aren't those buildings moving?!"

"No, stupid! They're not! You drink too much!" But the building did move, then pirate heard someone wiping and looked to see a woman.

"Hey! Be a good little boy! Move forward!" She said, "There is a strange woman, who is that?" He said. "Come on! Bruce up! You look pathetic! Come on! Come on! Come on!" She shouts.

"She's whipping a building..." Then the woman looks at the pirates, "Why are you staring at me?" She ask, the pirates blushed and saw her hat. "S-she's a navy soldier!" He shouted.

She smiled, "How rare is it to see a navy soldier when you're a pirate?" Said kujaku. "Come here. You're so cute. I'll displine you."

The pirates have their guns, ready to shoot you two. You got wounded on your left arm, koby is with you, and you can't use your power after you have a battle on onigashima.

"You're cornered, koby, (Y/N)!" Koby looked around to escape, 'oh no! We're surrounded!' He thought. "Take aim!" Koby started to sweat.

You're too weak to fight, "shoot all at once! Fire!"

"This is it for us!"

On the marine ship, "Everyone's is place! We'll be ready soon!" Said tashigi. Garp smiles, "Wait for me, my beloved pupli!" He says.

Lookism boys living together HCs

Ft. Daniel, Vasco, Jay, Zack, Jake, Johan (<33 ahem-), Eli, Warren, Samuel, Gun and Goo (because why not?) if I forgot to add someone maybe i’ll add it later

Overall HCs for them

DG is the Boss at home, why? Because I say so and he just gives me that kinda vibe😌

Vasco does most of the work in the garden 🪴

Zack doesn’t do anything at all but he will clean up if he’s told to

Daniel tried to help out here and there, wherever he can

Gun and Goo make money so they’re excused from doing housework

Eli takes care of Yenna so he doesn’t have to do a lot of work but he’ll still help clean

Warren helps Vasco in the garden 🪴

Johan cleans the clothes (guys he knows how to use a washing machine 🥹)

Samuel takes care of finances and all the paperwork 📄

Jake cooks and cleans

Everyone (except Jay)plays with Eden and Miro much to Johans distress

My HCs for Gun & Goo and Gun & Samuel

* Gun and Goo share a room (obviously-)

* They always argue so DG had to separate them

* Now Gun shares a room with Samuel (because Samuel practically begged DG to put the two of them together)

* Goo sleeps in the basement…alone. (no one wanted to be in a room with him for safety reasons)

* Gun visits Goo‘s room in the basement from time to time

* Gun‘s room is extremely minimalist and organized

* Goo sleeps in the basement but it doesn’t look like a basement at all… his room is very…flashy

My HCs for Jake & Sammy and Jake & Johan

* Samuel used to share a room with Jake

* They literally had the „You can’t cross this line…here…this is my territory, there…that’s your territory“-thing (people who used to share a room with siblings will understand)

*you know this meme? that’s how their room looks like

* After Samuel moved to Gun‘s Room Jake now shares a room with Johan

* Jake always tries to start a conversation with Johan but Johan usually ignores him

* From time to time they hold some conversations though and I feel like Johan would rant a lot and Jake would listen

* Johan would feel bad for ranting though so he’d probably do something for Jake in return like fold his clothes

* Jake likes to play with Eden and Miro a lot and although Johan didn’t want it at first he doesn’t care anymore

My HCs for Danny & Zack

* Daniel and Zack share a room

* Zack often visits Johans room but Johan always tells him off

* What more can I say about Zack and Danny? They’re bffs

* Daniel cleans Zacks things from time to time

* They sleep on a bunk bed because bunk beds are cool

* Sometimes they talk until deep into the night until the people next to their room tell them to shut the fuck up

My HCs for Vasco & Warren

* Vasco shares a room with Warren

* They hardly talk

* Vasco always tells Warren a lot of things and Warren listens

* Vasco somehow managed to completely misunderstand the things Warren says since he leaves out a lot of words

* They still get along well

My HCs for Eli & Yenna (and Yenna & everyone else)

* Eli is in a room with yenna

* he always tries his best to fulfill her needs

* whenever yenna cries everyone comes rushing into the room (because yenna is the queen and everyone should love her 💯 …except Sammy, Goo and Johan they just put on headphones)

* Yenna runs around in the house a lot and everyone tries their best to take care of her (even Sammy, Goo and Johan try not to hurt her and sometimes take care of her as well)

My HCs for Jay

* Jay! I forgot Jay!

* he sleeps alone because he’s rich 💵

* but he visits danny in his room a lot

* sleeps over in danny’s room too

My HCs for DG

* DG sleeps alone in a big no huu~uge bedroom

* his room is like four times as big as the others rooms (and just twice as big as Gun‘s and Sammy’s room)

* I imagine his room to be like royalty style if you know what I mean

* he rarely leaves his room

I’ll do some more HCs next time maybe and writing is not my forte but i’m still glad if you read until now! tysm for reading! 💖💕

[nomnomdiary]

I just re-read and seems like I have a different opinion from the previous one

Many Jiho stan blame Daniel Park and justify the statement "Daniel can be successful because of visual". I think Jiho was wrong, not Daniel. Little Daniel was bullied just like Jiho. But he can survive and have friends. Vasco, Zack, Zoe, etc. They became friends since Daniel was fat. You could even say that Vasco was a friend who changed Daniel 180 degrees. Daniel learned a lot about life from his friends especially Vasco.

But Jiho. He doesn't want to learn from his mistakes and only blames the world. When he was still in school, he often did prestige like wear expensive brands, smoked and act cool even though he still look stupid. He made two mistakes. It's okay to make mistakes for times because nobody is perfect. But he has no willingness to learn mistakes. He was pretty different from Daniel and Duke.

Jiho is a type of friend which if you criticize in a gently way, he will get angry and accuse you of hating him because of some reason. He is anti-criticism, selfish, does not learn from mistakes and always blames the world.

I'm not Jiho's slander. I admit Jiho's character development makes a lot of sense and that's good. I am not the type of fan who judges bad character stan means justify the evil act. I'm also stan of the bad character in Lookism. But the thing is many Jiho Stan justify him and blame Daniel.

But I'm not surprised because there are so many people who are anti-criticism and only blame the world like Jiho.

streamer daniel au?

ok so i’m a vtuber watcher right. i Get the parasocial thing. lemme get to it im just gonna make this in bullet points

1) daniel is a streamer: he’s wannabe pro gamer! went from “i’m gonna game and beat up enemies as stress relief bc i get bullied irl” as a middle schooler to a high schooler being like “actually i can make some good money out of this” bc he got a growth spurt and went from og daniel to current daniel, his real name is park hyungseok (they all use their korean names) but he streams under the name ‘daniel’ and wears a mask to prevent being completely doxxed. it was beomjae’s idea bc you can’t tell me he’s also a gamer (he and daniel are a lot closer in this bc 1) jay does not go to the same skl 2) vasco and jinsung are not gamers and they both want Gamer Bros yk and daniel is hilarious when he malds he daipans and everything and beomjae has the time of his life watching daniel scream at npcs)

2) daniel uses pet names a lot: he calls people baby, sweetheart, honey, jagiya bc he’s a pretty boy and fansa pays SO WELL. he also does bfe sometimes so imagine he’s like vox akuma from nijisanji en fourth wave luxiem. hot guy with a smooth, comforting voice calls you baby. i’d be dead in seconds. people like lala kim eat that shit up

3) you know who also eats that up? hong jaeyeol. bc he’s gay and daniel is like The hot guy who coincidentally plays the same video games as jaeyeol (who games bc he’s a hikikomori loser /j), it starts from jaeyeol going “yo jaehye look there’s a guy who plays this game too i’m not the only one” to “o fuck he made me a mod bc i helped him bonk the backseaters” to “he. he just called me baby. excuse me im gonna pass out” (’jace’ is daniel’s other mod. the duality of having nice mod ‘asdf’ (jaeyeol) and mean mod ‘jacepogg’ (beomjae))

4) they graduate from high school and they end up at the same uni (STEM major jay? med jay? law jay? poll needed? + compsci major jace + business major daniel, they’re all in the same free elective (still unknown) with the rest of the j high gang) and hyungseok catches jaeyeol playing the video game (bc he’s bored, he’s just taking this for the credits he alr knows all the content) and he’s like “YO. you’re good” and jaeyeol’s like !!!!! bc those are daniel’s eyes?? is this guy daniel?? daniel his ‘celeb’ crush is sitting next to him??

5) they become friends and at some point jaeyeol casually reveals he’s a yt mod for a gamer and hyungseok like wait. WAIT. and the reveal actually happens bc daniel’s mod ‘asdf’ and hyungseok’s bestie hong jaeyeol text the same way + react the same way to being called pet names

What kind of drunks are Machete and Vasco?

I don't think either of them are heavy drinkers in either setting.

Vasco would drink socially and he's known to socialize a lot, so he must've ended up going overboard a few times, especially when he was a little younger and testing his limits. But I like to think he only gets slightly more careless and reckless when inebriated, you don't have to fear that he goes and does something exceptionally stupid or dangerous. If anything he becomes sort of a mom friend around people he's drinking with and tries to look after them. He gets jollier but he's pretty cheerful at all times so it's not much of a change. In modern au Machete's influence has a stabilizing effect on him and he doesn't feel peer pressured to get as plastered as he might otherwise.

Machete can't hold his liquor at all. He drinks very carefully and avoids anything stronger than the usual glass of (diluted) wine. He doesn't particularly enjoy the taste, but more than that he strongly dislikes the idea of being drunk, because he's all about self-control and vigilance and having your senses and judgement impaired puts you into a vulnerable position. If he does get a little tipsy in an environment he deems safe however (with Vasco, in private), he becomes uncharacteristically giggly and more relaxed and uninhibited. In modern au he's happy with his role as the designated driver, and others tend to view him as a very responsible and reasonable person for it, even if it means he's going to stay somewhat uptight.

HELLO!!! OMG I LOVE YOUR WORK SO MUCH ❤️✨. I WAIT FOR YOU EVERYDAY TO POST 💖 YOUR WRITING IS LIKE THE BEST THING IN THIS WORLD 🙇 CAN I PLS REQUEST LOOKISM MEN WITH A HOUSEWIFE READER. THANK YOU SO MUCH LOVE YOUR WORK 😍🥰

Hey anon, thanks for reading my brainrot and your request! You are adorable and I am loving the energy in this ask.

Gone for hc, but lemme know if you want a lil fic/drabble. I started to write a snippet for Jake and Goo and then realised I wanted to write for more of the boys but it gets a bit repetitive, yknow?

Lookism Boys with Housewife S/O headcanons

Jake Kim

After what feels like a lifetime of instant ramen and worrying about Big Deal, it's nice to have some homecooked meals and know that at least one part of his life is running smoothly.

Will always try to split the chores and errands evenly with you, because it's Jake. And if you wave him away and say no it's fine, he will follow you around anyway because spending time with you? Yes please.

Goo Kim

If you want to be a housewife, knock yourself out, honeybun. If you want to just sit around on your ass all day and do nothing, that's fine too. Goo will hire cleaners. Whatever makes you happy.

Actually loves doing shared chores with you though, and canonically he loves to cook. You do the prepping, he does the actual chef work. A little because it's a fun roleplay for him, and a lot because he does appreciate time together where he can just ramble on to you.

Gun Park

Housewife is.. fine. He can provide more than enough for the both of you. Honestly doesn't have any feelings about it one way or the other.

From a practical and pragmatic sense, it's nice to have someone he trusts look after your home. And then if/when there are kids coming along then it's also a lot easier if you are a stay-at-home parent too.

Samuel Seo

You're not so much a housewife, as a kept wife. Samuel has the vibes that if he can afford to so, and he absolutely can, then you are not lifting a finger.

Yes, he loves you but more because it's a matter of pride that he can provide for you in all areas of your life. You keeping the household running smoothly? Fine. But doing dishes? He has the ridiculous notion that it's below you.

Eugene

Yeah, you're also not going to be a housewife with Eugene. You can be in a power couple with him, but there is zero expectation to be a traditional housewife. You guys employ people for that.

Enjoy your shopping and brunches and being on the board of charities or whatever with other socialites.

DG/James Lee

This guy has enemies and unhinged fans coming out of his butthole, so for your safety and his peace of mind, housewife is great. Leaves pretty much most of the errands to you as his fame prevents him doing even the most simple things (but yet no one catches him beating up minors).

Extremely private with his personal life and with you. You're the only bit of normalcy in his insane life (lives?) and appreciates the sanctuary and home you have both built. Seeing you do the laundry, dust, cook, whatever? It's a sigh of relief for his soul.

Zack Lee/Vasco Tabasco

The two of them are pretty similar here.

Are you kidding? Absoutely loves that you are a housewife, there's something about the fact that you are looking after their wellbeing that they adore.

Has very traditional ideas of gender roles, much to the chagrin of you at times, so them being the financial provider, and the household being your domain sounds great to them. Any issues with that? Don't worry, just let them know and they will bend over backwards to make sure you're happy.

Xiaolong

Takes a long time to get used this, and even then you being a housewife and looking after the household and family never quite feels right.

Don't blame Xiaolong though, he has had a lifetime of servitude. Always feels a little guilty about not looking after you in all areas of your life. He never quite fully breaks out of this mindset but is forever grateful for you and all that you do.

Vin Jin

What housewife? You're on the road touring with him when he's an international platinum-selling rapper.

Johan Seong

Well a positive of you being a housewife is that the further away from danger you are, the better.

However, being the sole financial provider does stress him out. He's had to scrape so goddamn hard for his mother's surgery, and the thought that the he has to do that forever? It does freak him out a little.

Much much prefers an equal partnership.

Eli Jang

Loves the stability of having you being a housewife for Yenna.

He trusts you with his life, and more importantly with Yenna. Eli knows she is in a safe pair of hands with you so that is a massive weight off his mind.

Overall it does a lot for healing the shitty childhood he had. Experiencing the loving home you have cultivated means more to him than you will ever know.

Warren Chae

He is the best househusband, and no one can convince me otherwise. Being able to have a calm life, with a loving partner and his biggest concern are looking after the home and family? After worrying about Hostel? Sign him the fuck up.

Warren will wave you off to work with a smile, the most delicious home-cooked lunch ever and a little note for you to read and perk up your day.

[spaceyflowers]

LOOKISM

-mary kim; she has a muscular figure with a lil tummy ! naturally started losing weight and building muscle while doing judo as a sport and exercising in general. she's still a little sensitive about her weight due to bullying when she was younger and at a larger size, but shes happy where she is now. she'll beat ur ass if u shit talk her weight but if u do it behind her back, vin jin will step in if he catches u ^_^

-jay; hes selectively mute, it formed mainly from his social anxiety but also because he's naturally an introvert and was neglected during his developing childhood stages, so that snowballed into selective mutism ! (saying this just bc i like having reasons for everything rather than just make him not being able to talk a Unique Character Trait Thing) i also have a whole ass backstory idea for him but i'll only share if someone's interested 😭 tbh tho i might get too attached to it and ignore canon if his real backstory ever comes out LMAOOO

-leonn; i ABSOLUTELY fucking refuse to have the only woman in the architecture department be there just bc she has a crush on some fucking guy (not an insult to vasco, simply an angry comment directed towards gross heteronormativity and the shitty use of female characters). anyways she mistook her deep admiration for vasco as romantic feelings

-warren; has a blackhole stomach. everyone in hostel is wary about wasted food bc theyre,, not very well off to say the least so anything they dont like/cant finish they give to warren and he happily chows down ^_^ also yeah hes not very picky about what he eats !!

-vin jin; the easiest way to tell he's embarrassed is when his ears go red. (jace, too... for obvious reasons) its hard to catch him blush under his shades sometimes! this may or may not also be the reason he grew out his hair ^_^

HOW TO FIGHT

-snapper has become such a talented cameraman he is now great at secretly recording things to blackmail his friends LMAAOAO (obviously nothing serious tho, snapper's not evil 😭)

-rumi has a habit of petting people's heads affectionately 💖

-jisoo's ass is rotting in jail! ^_^

-taehun is a child magnet. you'd think he'd scare off kids but nope they all wanna play with him. and he acts like he hates this fact yet he always plays with the kids or at least entertains them a little (when hes not busy). altho he does hate this fact; babies are always staring at him (yknow that one science study or whatever that said babies stare at pretty people? yeah.)

-THE GIRLS ARE ALL BESTIES!!!!!! bomi, gyeoul, rumi, and gaeul <3 bomi is the calm collected smart one, rumi is also the smart one but more bubbly, gyeoul is the little goblin they kinda have to keep on a leash and gaeul's dumb of ass pure of heart <3

Compañeros (1970)

Directed by: Sergio Corbucci Genre: Western

CW: None

I love a movie that can get me to say things like, "And then they torture him with a guinea pig who's claws are reportedly strong enough to dig through solid ground."

Like what an interesting thought to have while watching a movie! It's exactly what happens in it. If that sounds too silly to be enjoyable- fear not! You are in good hands.

Compañeros starts at the end with Lola (Iris Berben) running through a mostly empty looking town to its train station where two men face off. Between them, a statue. One of them calls the other Penguin. Interesting. It's a good place to start. It has made me adequately curious.

The movie is set during the Mexican Revolution and right after the flash forward, we see one of our two men, Vasco (Tomas Milian), celebrating with his men in town after a successful revolt. They are drinking and shooting effigies of the president. Lola is there as well though she has much more hair than she did in the intro scene. She meets Vasco first and he assaults her which I must say felt completely unnecessary. She doesn’t need a reason to dislike him. She doesn't subscribe to his use of violence to win the revolution, and we later find out she leads a different band of rebels. Not to mention the fact that Vasco will soon cut off her hair which feels a far more appropriate reason for her to immediately dislike him.

Of note here is that I watched a slightly shorter version of this movie. I only know this because there is a boot shining scene where Mongo (José Bódalo), one of the antagonists, hires Vasco to his cause at about this point in the movie. It was not in the version I watched on Tubi. All things considered, I do think that such a scene is unnecessary for establishing the characters of Vasco and Mongo. I don't know if there were any other changes between the two versions but the difference in runtime was just about 5 minutes so I don't suspect a whole lot got cut.

At the train station a Polish mercenary is arriving in the same town. His name is Yodlaf Peterson (Franco Nero) but you probably won't remember that and it's frankly unimportant because his real name is the pet name Vasco gives him- Penguin.

Vasco and Penguin do not hit it off, in fact it seems Vasco was soon to kill Penguin if not for Mongo showing up shortly thereafter. Penguin is here to sell guns to Mongo after all.

Of course would you look at that? The money he's to be paid is being kept in a safe that no one can get into and the only man who knows the combination is another revolutionary named Xantos (Fernando Rey) who is currently in Texas. Xantos practices a no violence approach and it's implied at this point that Mongo really only cares about the money he could make from the revolution and not its values.

Penguin resolves that he will track down this Xantos entirely with the intention of charging Mongo more and Mongo makes Vasco go with him. So, now about thirty minutes in, our two have teamed up. I really like the beginning of this movie for the most part. In particular, Penguin has a lot of charming scenes where he worsens his relations with Vaso and is just generally entertaining.

Which on that- this movie is a very homoerotic western. It’s not Catlow (1971) levels of homoeroticism but by god it’s close! Granted, this genre is sort of built for homoeroticism. Your leads are almost always men so all your most important scenes and moments of character development are about, for, and between men. It’s incredibly easy to project a romantic interpretation onto that. But Compañeros seems unusually romantic at some points. For example, in the beginning of the movie Penguin gives a dollar to Vasco, and Vasco proceeds to wear it as a necklace the whole rest of the movie. And the coin comes back a lot! There is also the fact that save one another frequently. It does one well to remember that if this were any other genre and one of the two was a woman, they would be falling in love by the end of the movie.

Vasco and Penguin start their journey on horseback and then switch to the train. The scene is a little cute actually because they're just nestled together in the seat. Unfortunately these two cannot escape trouble for long and that comes in the way of Lola and her rebels. The pair get away and back on the train but then Penguin disconnects the cars from the engine, leaving Vasco on his own.

Now the meat and potatoes of this movie is a lot of fun! I haven’t encountered a western villain this hokey in awhile and I must say that Jack Palance as John, the man with a wooden hand, is utterly brilliant. He’s slimy, conniving, and somehow as sinister as he is silly. He wears a cape and has a falcon named Marsha as a familiar.

Him and Yodlaf have history. In a biblical sense you might say. And I mean that as both a suggestive joke about their relationship, but also as a pun on the actual events that transpired between them.You see, on their last job together Penguin left John for dead and John was literally crucified. He only managed to get away because Marsha ate through his hand. What a backstory!

Once Penguin gets off the train he sees Marsha and John. It’s here we learn of his amazing backstory and John leaves Penguin precariously hung from a post where he must balance on a barrel or choke to death. Marsha stands nearby waiting to eat him or something. So of course, because this is a movie, Vasco shows up in time to gloat and then save his life.

I really love this scene. It was used in some iterations of the posters. Giving very Spider-man and MJ. Vasco even comments on how beautiful and like the sky Penguin's eyes are.

Now without a train we have an excuse for this bumbling journey to last longer and for more chaos to ensue. This is your Midnight Run of cowboy movies if you will. The actual goal is straightforward but the progress our leads make is bumbling because of their clashing personalities and outside forces (John and both Mexican and American armies) wanting to thwart their efforts. I have a soft spot for movies like this.

In town, Penguin meets with a prostitute he knows. She helps them get into a military camp to break out Xantos but before she does that, Penguin suggests she sleep with Vasco. When Penguin goes to find Vasco later, he’s in a state of shock lying on the bed with his boots off and lipstick on his face muttering about how she’s blonde everywhere. When Penguin asks what happened, the prostitute replies, “It’s too much of a shock, I guess.” I do not know if Vasco will beat the allegations…

But hey, neither is Penguin because while saving Xantos he announces himself by saying “I’m the Swede, but they call me Penguin.”

Saving Xantos is an easier task than some of the other events that befall our leads and so about an hour in we are on our way back to Mongo. Xantos is very steadfast in his beliefs and during their ride repeatedly tries to talk to Vasco and convince him that Mongo doesn’t have his best interests at heart.

Xantos doesn’t try to convince Penguin because Penguin will literally join anyone’s side for whichever slice of the pie is bigger. He’s consistent to say the least, and in a way perfectly reliable because of it.

Penguin tries to abandon Vasco overnight and this time it seems to work! Vasco gets caught by John and this is where we see the vile, contemptible guinea pig that is said to render flesh. It is put in a basket tied to Vasco’s bare chest. At first Vasco laughs because it’s ticklish, but then he begins to scream and call out for Penguin. Xantos refuses to go onward without saving Vasco and so Penguin goes to get him back.

Back on the road again, Xantos finds baby turtles. He remarks how unusual it is for this breed of turtle to be here and begins to collect them all. This seems like a really odd scene but actually it is hilariously relevant because when Xantos gets captured by John while running away from our two boys, he starts to leave the turtles like bread crumbs. This movie has a lot of things in it that are so beyond expectations.

Now with the aid of Lola, our team goes to get Xantos. Following that, John makes a move on Mongo and suggests they team up and bait Xantos in to kill him. John is hoping to get the Penguin with him.

So thus we are led into our final confrontation! Or well sort of. It sort of feels like this movie ends ten times but we’ll get to that. Xantos goes alone to confront Mongo and Penguin and Vasco both follow. Penguin takes a different route so he can spot John’s trap for Xantos and fires on the supports of the tower he’s in. Mongo’s men come all running out and basically Vasco and Penguin take down the lot of them. During this scene Vasco gets fatally shot, but what do ya know? THE BULLET HIT THE DOLLAR COIN HE WEARS AROUND HIS NECK.

Something about this scene is like what I imagine seeing a unicorn would be like. Rapturous and euphoric, and at the same time I cannot believe it’s happening and that my eyes and ears beheld it.

At the end of the fight Mongo gives up. He’s alone anyway so, yeah he better. Xantos convinces Vasco not to kill him, though the effort is moot because Mongo proves to be treacherous again. He’s about to kill Xantos when he is fired upon by all of Xantos’ other rebels who've finally shown up. Xantos then gives Penguin the combination for the safe and it turns out it didn’t have any money in it. Just the promise of money. Penguin looks like he’s about to finally snap but he soon reconciles the loss in a different way.

You see all the while Vasco and Lola have been falling in love. Or I mean I guess? Vasco is suddenly far more appealing when he’s on the write side of the revolution and yeah it sucked when he cut off her hair, but it was really romantic when he revealed he’d been storing it under his hat to remind him of her.

I expected this turn of events from the movie, but it doesn’t really justify it. I think the actors do fine together and convince me this matters, but the events that transpire between them leave a lot to be desired. I mentioned how Vasco and Lola meet and that’s sort of a huge vibe killer for their relationship to me. I really think the movie would have made way more sense if that scene just wasn’t in there at all. Vasco doesn’t really seem the type of person to act that way for the entire rest of the film and his removing her hair worked better on its own.

But I digress, they are in love now and Lola will only be with him if they get married. They have no priest but they instead will use a statue of San Bernardino. As they are finishing their vows, from the roof Penguin steals the statue and cackles. You see, it was the only thing of value in the town and he could never leave empty handed and now we see our character back in the beginning. They are about to have a duel but then John and his couple remaining men catch up to them, and Vasco and Penguin shoot them instead of each other.

Xantos is killed by John and Vasco invites Penguin to fight with him. Penguin declines but as he’s leaving he sees the Mexican army on its way so he rides back into town to join them for an incoming fight, shouting “Compañeros! Vamos a mator, Compañeros!” Vasco smiles, beautifully I might add, and the movie ends.

Really good stuff. Really great stuff! This was an absolutely blast of a good time. I did enjoy myself a lot while watching it. I don’t know if the movie will hold up as well on rewatches though. This movie is just under two hours and sometimes you can really feel that runtime. Most of the time you don’t feel it, but it does have moments that drag. Like the ending. Additionally some of the scenes, as mentioned already, are unnecessary. They don’t destroy my overall enjoyment of the movie but they are things I might skip when I rewatch it.

I really loved the acting, especially from Nero, Milian, and Palance. They are a blast to watch and captivated me the whole way through. The interactions between Vasco and Penguin are just full of chemistry and are very entertaining.

The score was done by Ennio Morricone whom I generally always love. This was not my favorite score by him. I liked the main theme but not so much some of the other tracks. They reminded me of scores of his I liked better from My Name is Nobody (1973) and Two Mules for Sister Sara (1970).

All in all I’m feeling this movie has earned a 6.7/10.

One Piece Chapter 1087 - Initial Thoughts

And We Are Back!

5 long looooong weeks for Oda to acquire his eye surgery laser vision but now we can resume the Egghead arc well...everything but the Egghead arc it seems

Still we finally get a manga dose of One Piece so let's see what we have

Spoilers for the chapter, support the official release also

An Ace cover page this time, shame we didn't do anything with the laser eyes but Ace and Capybaras make up for it

In the G1 shipyard there are two navy ships whose hulls are dented, apparently known as 'battleship bags' which Garp trains with

Jango and Fullbody are surprised that this is Garp's daily routine, but also that the second ship was Aokiji's!

Also these dents are caused by brute strength, no fruit or haki

Reminder too that Navy ship hulls nowadays are layered with Sea Prism, so I think this is the first instance we've seen of Sea Prism being weathered

I get that this dude has been present in the post TS Navy exposition but where's my man Bogard?

Back to Fullalead and Wolf is already in the drink

I mean Garp just tossed the mega-giant into the water like Thames Water dropping sewage

Vasco's next for the attack with a fireball

That's cold Garp, using the lesser pirates as a shield, but I guess since they're not your allies it's not morally ambiguous

Garp ain't even fazed either

Garp's fighting has managed to get all the slaves and marines back on the ship to escape

Oda my man, why did you bring Tashigi if you're not letting her do anything???

Coby, Helmeppo and Grus are fighting with Garp still, but the plan is to fall back

Aokiji's back and he didn't hear no bell

Garp gives the orders for the trio to leave while he holds ground, but Coby spots a woman in danger and jumps in to help

But Grus senses it's a trap, and he's right

Garp steps in but eats a stab from Shiryu!

Garp says the wound is nothing but Coby's still on the guilt

I wonder how Shiryu is bypassing haki? because Coby is known to have great Observation Haki, even sensing enemies below surface level

Cross Guild were foolish enough to bounty Garp? Seems that Crowns are worth 1 billion berry (how does Buggy, Crocodile or Mihawk have that kinda cash?) and Garp has 3, on par with an Admiral...and his otherwise absent grandson

The redshirts try to swarm Garp but Aokiji tells them they still wouldn't stand a chance

Mini flashback of how Aokiji became Garp's protege, turns out Aokiji insisted him into it

Young Garp definitely looks a lot like Luffy

So Kuzan was like 'I've learned everything the marines told me' but didn't know Haki? I thought all Vice Admirals knew it

Joint training led to Garp just venting at Kuzan about his family

"You have a habit of raising enemies" - well 'raising' is used loosely

Double punches from master and student sends both men flying

Now Pizarro starts gloating, taking aim at the escape ship

Pizarro's fruit does just feel like an advanced form of Pica's fruit

Pizarro being annoyed with Blackbeard being on the news is interesting, wonder if there's like a slight bit of dissent among the crew

Hibari, much like Coby, is annoyed that she couldn't help, but gets some reassurance from Kujaku

Garp is hopeful justice will prevail though, as we're left on a cliffhanger

It's good to be back

This chapter could've been a lot more action packed I feel, but I'm happy with what we got. Glad Aokiji showed more fight too, because making him look strong works for both Blackbeard and Akainu as well. Also kinda glad that the other Blackbeard members got involved, seemed weird that they would just spectate.

This is a point where Oda could easily move on to another plot section though, which I hope doesn't happen. But I'd also like Tashigi to do something impressive and if she can do something similar to Zoro's feat against Pica to save the ship that'd do pretty nicely. Realistically thinking there may be some navy backup, but we also can't rule out Perona and Moria getting involved, since Coby only escaped because Perona gave him the keys.

It's been 5 weeks but Oda has us leaned back in

[mark-of-chrysus]

I had an idea for a time loop, but it has more to do with Viral Hit - and if those characters were also in a time loop. It also has a lot of crack in it.

What if Taehoon and Daniel meet in one of the time loops during middle school and Taehoon is new to the time loops, but seeing a poor kid get beat up tugs at him and he decided to help Daniel train.

Eventually he meets Yeonwoo and Dowoon earlier and Dowoon survives (bc I don't want him to die) and he rescues them more successfully this time around. He also makes other friends who do different martial arts and they go around beating up bullies and gangsters

He still does have the 'bully' reputation, but it's more like Vasco's this time around. Cue Daniel actually getting in shape but not looking like a completely different person - like buff and tall with some chub) when he somehow goes to J High and meets Gun and Crystal.

Gun tries to fight with him and Taehoon subsequently finds out his friend student got beat up and decides Guess I'll 1080 kick this guy.

Cue Gun simping for Taehoon and hitting on him and Taehoon actually not hating it - all while Daniel is trying to get with Jay and keep the fighting psycho Crystal's bodyguard away, Taehoon's friends wheezing, and Yoo Hobin company betting on this weird guy's weird flirting tactics.

I'm so sorry for how long this idea was.😭 I just had a crack idea and wanted to share.

(Okay so, I haven't actually gotten around to ready Viral Hit yet, but I did some research and I think I did quite well for myself. Thoughts? Also, love, love, love the prompt, and thank you very much for it. If you have any other similar or different ideas feel free to send them my way!)

Danny, despite all his training and losing so much of his weight, still had baby fat on his cheeks, making him look like a squirrel. That was the first of Taehoon's problems. The second came in the form of one psychotic black-eyed bodyguard currently standing over the fallen form of his young stupid little squirrel-faced minion.

He.Saw.Red.

The motherfucker didn't even know what hit him until his face was plastered on the sidewalk and Taehoon was staring down at him with contempt with one leg still raised in the air. The newly dubbed 'satan's secret lovechild' rose slowly and turned to the brown-haired boy with what could only be described as an utterly filthy look. While outward the boy remained nonchalant he was inwardly squirming with a mix of disgust and worry.

"Gun stop this or I'll have my father pair you up with Goo again." The girl who had watched the whole debacle go down finally intervened when 'satan's secret lovechild' looked ready to pounce (and not entirely in an aggressive fight-y way).

The bodyguard grumbled but complied and got into the driver's seat of the car while Taehoon lifted Danny up by his arm. The smaller boy squirmed as the taekwondo prodigy let go of his arm only to grab him by the ear and begin lecturing him.

"Have I taught you nothing-"

The car drove out of the parking lot and the bickering pair was left behind, although Gun's thoughts kept straying to the strong boy. In the passenger seat, Crystal discreetly shifted closer to the window and tried to ignore the perverted grin on her bodyguard's face with all her might. She did not want to know what weird fantasies he was currently having and she sent a quick prayer for the pitiful soul that had attracted his eye.

ー Activity levels: ✦✦✦✦✧✧

ー The Nauts' involvement:

As humanity evolved and changed over the course of time, so did the Nauts. They went from sailing the seas to sailing the stars. While they still have their members on the ground - across from various of planets - to sail any seas (or skies), their primary travel is within outerspace.

While their main business is to carry both cargo and people from one planet to the next or from one place on a planet to the next place on the same planet, they can be found to have warships. To be involved with any sort of combat. Many if not all their cargo ships are armored with light armor and weapons to defend themselves while they are traveling about. To prevent people like pirates and mercenaries from taking over.

When the Andromeda Initiative was introduced and slowly building itself up, the Nauts was a bit iffy in joining in, given they didn't see it working. Not at first. It took a bit of convincing before they sent some of their own people to join and to send them to another galaxy.

Mind you, many humans makes up the ranks of the Nauts, but as time went on by, other alien species joined the ranks. So, it's not surprising to see species like Asaris, Turians, Salarians, and many more go through the recruiting system like the humans did or even be seen within the ranks.

ー Vasco's involvement:

Vasco isn't a recruitable (and romanceable companion) in ME1. He is just an npc-like character during the events of the first game, providing a few missions here and there or popping up to help. As best as he can that is without getting too involved. All because he might get in trouble with the Nauts. The same people he calls his family.

He can be recruited during the second game, though it takes a bit of convincing for him to do so. Mind you, the Nauts and Cerberus aren't the greatest buddies. In fact, they are on opposite ends on the spectrum in terms of alliances and friendships. It's because Cerberus tried to figure out ways to gain the Nauts' secrets and using it for the sake of humanity, though it's far from it. That and they have somehow getting into some kind of trouble with the Nauts, earning a lot of pissed of members and a big no for any future alliances. So, it's no surprise that Vasco has a tough time joining onto a ship that belongs to Cerberus, despite it being an upgraded Normandy and seeing familiar faces. Eventually he does join the crew, though mostly to work under Shepard. A smaller reason he may only reveal to Shepard is that he wants to see if they are the real deal and not some clone or copycat.

His personal quest during ME2 is figuring out about his family. His family is a wealthy family who does a lot of business with other organizations or families as well as trading. What exactly is still unknown for now. This mission would require your muse to sneak in and grab the right files that contains his information from the Nauts. Shortly after knowing who his family is and where he comes from, he will ask to go see his family, who he later realizes are assholes. So, he doesn't reveal himself to them and will say he is proud to be a Naut. Not that he was before. Just more.

If failing to do this mission, it will result in him leaving before jumping into Omega 4 Relay. What brings his death during the jump is if you don't help him complete the loyalty mission from the Nauts.

Now, there is two routes you can ask for when it comes to Vasco in the events of ME3 / Andromeda. Please do specify which one since this can determine the outcome for any threads taking placing in either ME3 or Andromeda. Anyways! If you have Vasco stay in ME3, he can be recruited again, but he isn't laid off. He is close to being fleet commander if not already.

Here is the thing, there is an evil clone of Vasco running around, who joins Normandy right off the bat. You can tell something is off about Vasco, especially if your muse is close with him. The way his eyes may look more red than gold or the way he seems to be more colder and ruder. This clone's personality is a bit off, though it can easily be mistaken as him being tense due to the arrival of the Reapers. Again, unless your muse has grown to know who he is or have grown close to him than they may notice something is off but can't place a finger on it. If you allow the real Vasco to stay, he can be seen around the time of recruiting Tali, which throws people off seeing two Vasco.

Depending on which side you take, it will determine what will happen to the actual Vasco. If you choose to believe the clone!Vasco, the real version will die and the Nauts will not become a war asset, which provides a good amount of asset. If you choose to take the real Vasco's side, the plan of what the clone wanted to do will be revealed. And depending if you have softened him up or toughened him up during his time on Normandy, he may take down the clone (toughened him up) or allowing Shepard to do it for him (softened him up).

If you don't let Vasco stay during the events of ME3, he will go onto the Andromeda Initiative, heading to the Andromeda Galaxy. He will be one of the few Nauts to be woken up, which he will join both Ryder and the Tempest crew. During his time away, there is no sooner way of knowing if the clone!Vasco is the real deal or not. This will lead to more trouble than what it is worth. If not stopping the clone!Vasco in time, the Nauts will not provide any war assets and instead, majority of them will be killed off by the Reapers.

Little side HCs: Vasco will not hesitate to start throwing hands, including using his omni-blade left and right, no matter where he is. He is used to fighting from afar as well as being up close, depending on how tough the enemy is. This will not affect anyone who has these muses, unless y'all wish to insert into our connection, but Vasco gets along the most with Liara, Tali, any of the Krogan companions (Wrex, Grunt, & Drack), Garrus, Vetra, and Jaal. In fact, if you don't romance Vasco, he will end up getting together with another crew mate, though this can be discussed further in private.
