#look i’ve seen so much hate for this headcanon that i had to speak

[starmoji1]

just a random thought

There is nothing wrong with Dadbastian and the hate I’m seeing it get is INSANE 💀

Seeing Sebastian exhibit some fatherly (more like motherly) traits and actions towards Ciel and having fun with these scraps makes the overall story of Black Butler more sad because you have the story of a young boy who lost everything—his parents, his brother, his home—and his savior is the very person who will kill him. The idea that Seb acts somewhat like a parent to Ciel as a very consistent male figure in his life (a role he must play to ensure their contract is properly filled), giving Ciel a little bit of a family before ultimately having to kill him…

Well I think that makes the story of Ciel Phantomhive just a little bit more interesting.

Also, the idea that Dadbastian fans believe this headcanon is an official fact is ridiculous; it’s just a silly au for funsies. It doesn’t mean that we ignore canon or ignore the darker aspects of BB. A lot of the Dadbastian hate sounds like y’all are taking this as a personal insult for no reason. I assure you, we know the lore and the actual canon. We just wanna have some fun with it too 🤷🏾‍♀️

Any hc’s for Scott (twisters) who is only not an asshole when he’s around his s/o? Others see him being sweet to her and are like wtf why can’t be be that nice to us 🥲

No cause I’ve also been obsessed with that idea of him for so long, ahhh. He seems like such a “I care about you and you only” kinda guy and it just fuels my obsession

A/N: this is my first time ever writing anything like head canons so if it’s goofy I apologize in advance. Not proofread as usual. Also I really hope it was anything like you expected 😭. But anyway, enjoy!

Scott Miller Headcanons

Right off the bat, I think we can all agree talking is not one of Scott’s strong suits. The only times he really talks is when he’s proposing ideas to Riggs and Javi about potential deals. So when the team finds him willingly chatting with you after a day of collecting data, they all just short circuit.

Like hello?? Are they dreaming??? Wtf going on???? Like out of everybody to talk to you choose him??? And they’re not even mad they’re just..they have no clue what to think, they’ve never seen him look so at ease before lmao. There’s no permanent scowl on his face or anything, just his baritone voice mixing with your own. Ngl it creeped them out at first, they really thought the world was ending that night.

Javi’s the first to really notice the changes in Scotts demeanor around you; the quick glances, the ever so slight smiles, and even the smallest touches like his thumb rubbing over the back of your hand when he’s giving a speech, he’s seen it all.

Speaking of, I just know that Scott’s love language has got to be either words of affirmation or physical touch. He loves hearing you tell him how much he matters to you, or how you remember small things about him, it just makes him smile. For him being a not very vocal person, it’s hard for him to tell you straight up how much he cares for you. It doesn’t even have to be gentle or meaningful words, making witty comebacks to his sarcastic remarks is always enough for him.

But his way of expressing his affection is through small touches. Standing close enough to you where you can smell his cologne, brushes of his fingers to your waist or hand, overall just standing close to you. (Now that I think abt it, that’s a looot more like quality time but whatever☺️)

Anyway, back on topic cuz I’m too easily distracted. The crew really tried their hardest to get Scott to even be remotely nice to them after that. I mean if he was nice to you then he could be nice to them right? Can’t be that hard. Boy oh boy were they wrong…they literally did everything in their power. They bought him coffees on early mornings, made sure he has the nicest, or as nice as they could be, bed sheets at motels, volunteered to do his dirty work of pages and pages of paperwork, but literally nothing worked. All they ever got were blank stared nods or a grumbled ‘thanks.’ At this point they were flabbergasted. How could you get that cocky bastard to even glance at you?? Nevertheless smile at you?

They have up like 5 days after trying lmfao, it was utterly useless to try and make that man any less brooding then he is. After trying through, they realized that all their attempts didn’t go completely wasted.

Scott brought you hot drinks on the chilly nights and morning as you two sat together in the crappy hotel rooms. Stopped smacking his gum whenever you side-eyed him a little too hard, much to everyone’s relief. Always walked you to your room after a late night to make sure you got there safe.

As much as they hated how self centered and blunt Scott was, they all secretly knew how love drunk he was about you. (Don’t bring it up to him, but they’re all secretly jealous they dont get any kind of special treatment

First head canon ask!! I do not think I did very good at it though💀💀. I had ideas in my head but they were not coming out the way I ask. But I hoped you at least liked some of it! I promise to write a better one in the future!

And as always, feel free to comment about anything you liked or didn’t like. Inbox is always open to more ideas! <3

Love your writing for bi-han- but I want to see how you write Kung Lao a little more. I have a personal headcanon that Kung Lao loved bunnies..so I was thinking- what if hybrid bunny reader one day shows up at the academy and Kung Lao becomes smitten. Like full blown- protective- I’ve laid my claim to this one- no one touch her she’s mine and reader is just like “huh-“

Hop to it

Yip notes: Headcanon? I thought it was canon! Also sorry if this is weird but the way you worded your first sentence reminded me of what my professors would say to me when it came to my writing and idk it’s funny to me.

Pairing: Kung Lao x Hybrid Bunny! Afab reader

Warnings‼️: No thumping

Have you seen? Have you heard? The bunny girl in the Wu Shi Academy is hopping to and fro. Of course, you know who that bunny girl is. She is you!

You were just a girl looking for a safe place where no one would harm you and you could obtain food. That’s when Liu Kang found you. He found you munching on berries you picked from bushes that were near the Wu Shi Academy. You were worried that you were in trouble but Liu Kang was very kind to you. He informed you that you could stay with the Wu Shi for as long as you wanted and have as many berries as you desired. You were very grateful for his acceptance. He did tell you to not worry too much about the monks and warriors around. They won’t bother you at all. Well, he thought they wouldn’t.

He should have known better and realized Kung Lao would be excited to see you.

The first time he ever saw you was a magical moment for him. He was resting by the shade, watching everyone else train. He was near the blackberry bushes and decided why the heck not. He can go for a couple of berries. But when he went to get a handful he saw another hand grab them. He jumped back and yelped a little. That’s when your long bunny ears popped up from behind the bushes. You started to stand up and Kung Lao got a look at you.

He saw how your ears matched your hair color perfectly. You had a cotton tail that was puffy. Below your knees were actual bunny paws. Toe beans and fur! He was shocked. He’s never seen a creature like you. You stared at him while munching on the blackberries quickly, the purple juice staining your lips. Since he wasn’t speaking, you decided to hop away. You moved like a bullet with your bunny legs.

He stood there gawking like an idiot. It was only when Johnny began to speak that he became aware of his surroundings again.

“Finally met the bunny girl, huh? She’s a cutie.”

══💤══╡°˖✧🦊✧˖°╞══💤══

If only Kung Lao was that enthusiastic about gardening when he and Raiden were back in Fengjian. He’s working those monks to the bone. Since when did Kung Lao like oregano and celery?

It’s not for him. It’s all for you. The moment the garden seemed to be flourishing he grabbed the biggest vegetables and the ripest fruits and gave them to you like they were a bouquet of flowers. You were ecstatic and thanked him a bunch, even hugging him which captured his heart even more.

To everyone else, this crush that Kung Lao had on you was a surprise. It happened so fast. Raiden understood immediately. Kung Lao always had a love for bunnies. While all the other gardeners and harvesters hated bunnies since they would mess up the crops, Kung Lao was the exception. He would make sure none of the bunnies got hurt and would help bring them somewhere safe. He would never keep any of them since he knew he couldn’t stay with them the whole time. Might as well let them stay free.

But you! You’re around all the time. That means he can have you and love you, and cuddle you, and pet you, and…and…AND! Relax, Kung Lao! You’re gonna hurt your precious brain.

Oh, he couldn’t help himself. He did everything to get close to you and have you trust him. It worked. Soon enough he was next to you all the time, petting your ears and feeling how soft your fur was. His eyes would shine with adoration at every little thing you did. He found the way you eat to be adorable. Whenever you shake your cotton tail his cheeks would warm up from how cute it was. When your ears would flop around he wanted to play with them.

Yes, you’ve sure captured his attention and his heart. Now that he has you in his life he never wants to let you go. You’re just too precious and he would do anything for you. He would even protect you. He’s already been protecting you.

Let’s be honest, Johnny is a flirt. After his ex-wife left him and he hadn’t seen a female in months his eyes were on you. Yeah, he knew Kung Lao was smitten with you. But does that stop a man who thinks with his second head? Didn’t think so. That man had plans and Kung Lao was not happy with what Johnny was thinking.

“I bet she would look good in a Playboy bunny outfit. No ears needed.” He joked with Kung Lao.

All Johnny got in return was a death glare. He was not pleased with that perverted comment. He would have smacked the fuck out of him if it weren’t for Liu Kang being around. You don’t deserve comments like that, especially behind your back. That’s why Kung Lao does his best to respect you, love you, and treat you right. He’ll protect you from Johnny’s perverted ways. He’s a better man than him anyway.

It does explain why he was being more touchy with you.

Whenever you two would pass the others, Kung Lao would wrap his arm around your shoulders before carrying on. Or he would ask you for a hug which you never deny him of. You like being squeezed by his muscular arms. And of course, he would mess with your ears. He would push them back, flop them up and down, or try to make the fur on them point straight up.

For some reason you were not getting the hint that he liked you. The abundance of vegetables and his touches didn’t set off any alarms in your mind. You silly bunny! He had to say it outright for you to get the idea.

══💤══╡°˖✧🦊✧˖°╞══💤══

Kung Lao was really getting agitated with Johnny at this point. He wouldn’t shut up about how he could easily win you over even though he has done nothing for you. He’s never given you a compliment on how high you could jump or even found the sweet spot behind your left ear. Only Kung Lao has been treating you right. If you were to fall in love with anyone it would be him.

Something snapped inside of him. He couldn’t take it anymore.

“You’re a bigger fool than I imagined, Johnny. You clearly don’t know how to take care of a lady, let alone a bunny lady.”

You’re right, Kung Lao. But you didn’t have to say it out loud. My goodness.

“I’m the only one around here who has made an effort to claim her heart and protect her. I would never let you touch her even with a ten-foot pole. She’s mine, Johnny, get over yourself.”

“Huh?”

Your voice rang out behind him. When he looked at everyone’s faces which confirmed that you were behind him. Even Kenshi had an awkward face, and he usually had a grumpy expression. Kung Lao slowly turned around and saw you looking at him with a curious expression. Your head was tilted to the side and your ears were pointed straight up. Well, this is a little awkward.

“Well since you are so sure about her falling for you why don’t you ask her right now.” Johnny was getting sassy.

Immediately Kung Lao grabbed onto his razor-rimmed hat and was about to chuck it at Johnny but everyone was yelling at him to relax. Even you told him not to do it since there was no point in getting himself in trouble.

“There is no need to kill him! He never had a chance anyways.” See you said it yourself; Johnny never had a chance.

Kung Lao luckily stopped and turned back towards you. He shouldn’t be shocked, he was putting in the work. He showed you kindness. He was delicate with your fur and ears. He never made an attempt to pull your tail like some people did. You watched him gather all those yummy vegetables and fruits for you the first time he decided to talk to you. You knew at that moment that you could trust him with your life.

Johnny, and everyone in general, never stood a chance. You wanted Kung Lao and he clearly wanted you. You gave him a smile before grabbing his face and placing a kiss on his cheek. His cheek warmed up immediately which you found cute.

Oh my, he’s getting shy! Looks like the prideful and skilled Kung Lao was stumped by a cute bunny girl. You sure gained yourself a cutie.  

Yap notes: I feel better at this point. Morning was rough but I think I'm okay. I just had to accept that it's not my fault that I didn't catch the signs and that I'll pick myself back up. I've drank about 2000ml of water which is impressive. But I need some salt cause I was giving myself a headache by accident. I hope nothing from this day affected my work.

❛ when you run into your ex… ❜ pt3 — dateables

synopsis. it’s been years since you’ve seen your ex, but on an excursion to your hometown in the human world with your boy, you run into them…

is aware that his position of Demon Prince is one that’s rather advantageous. He keeps this especially in mind when it comes to his lover. Diavolo is also very aware of his overwhelming demeanor that his loyal subjects know all too well, but the human world has yet to see that side of him. He’s his usual bubbly and extroverted self when he first meets your ex, but when mention is made that this is, in fact, your ex, his whole disposition changes. He’s standing taller, his broad shoulders squared, his glare narrowed on the target before him. He had all but flared his wings and flashed his horns fully in his demon form. It doesn’t take long for your ex to take notice of this and politely and very quickly excuse themself and head the opposite direction of you and Diavolo. “Oh, it’s a shame that our conversation ended so quickly!” It’s not that you hadn’t noticed his swift change in tune, but you certainly weren’t going to question it or mind it, really. Diavolo loops your arm in his and start you all in the opposite direction your ex had walked, “I saw a flyer for a carnival in town, let’s head that way!”

— 𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐁𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐒

is pretty low key and honestly doesn’t even react to your ex showing up. Well, not on the outside at least. The utmost decorum and poise is expected of Barbatos, but his thoughts can be rather ruthless. If your ex approaches, Barbatos will exchange niceties but swiftly move you away from the conversation with whatever lie he can muster. “Come now, my dear, we mustn’t be late for an appointment with the Young Master.” You were a little confused what he meant because you weren’t aware of any appointments with Diavolo, but you roll with it, say your goodbye, and begin walking with Barbatos towards the shops. He keeps an arm around you, grip tight on your shoulder. “Forgive me, my love, but I couldn’t spend not one more second around that scoundrel,” he confesses. You’re a little taken aback, not really pegging Barbatos as jealous type. So, you question him, asking him if he really was jealous. And to your surprise, he says yes, “Well, of course I was. They got to know you long before I did. Got to touch you long before I did. Perhaps even experienced sides of you I’ve yet to experience. But, in due time, I will know every inch of you. Every thought. Everything. You are mine, my dear, I won’t let anyone else have you now.”

— 𝐒𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐎𝐍

is absolutely the jealous type. But the silent anger type of jealousy, much like Barbatos. Simeon will exchange a hello and maybe even a handshake and do it all with a smile, but on the inside this man is seething. As the conversation with your ex wraps up and the three of you share your goodbyes you notice Simeon is quiet. You ask if he’s all right and he responds, “Yes, I’m okay, my little lamb. I just…” He trails off, looking dejected and blatantly avoiding eye contact with you, “Did you enjoy talking to them?” Simeon speaks low and, it was hard to hear, it almost sounded like he asked through gritted teeth. You tell him you neither hated it or loved it. Simeon looks relieved and wraps his arm around your shoulder, pulling you close as his eyes settle on a nearby flower shop. As he redirects your paths to the shop he continues, “I can’t believe how angry I just got.” Simeon lets out a small laugh, “I can’t think of another time I got that angry that quickly. When I saw you smiling at them the same way you smile at me…” You reassure him that you would never smile for anyone like that but him and he seems relieved yet again. He purchases you a big bouquet of your favorite flowers and you both head back to the Devildom where Simeon walks you home. He makes sure to give you a slow, deep kiss in front of the door right in view of Mammon who was about to let you in.

— 𝐒𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐌𝐎𝐍

will get very clingy after a run in with your ex. After you mention to him that you see your ex across the way he’s quick to yank you the opposite direction, much to the dismay of his enemy in question. Solomon grabs your hand with a tight grip and with his other he’s using magic to teleport the two of you back to Purgatory hall. You try to question him as to why he’s acting this way but he’s quick to silence you before you can even ask, “Surely you don’t think I’d like meddling with your ex?” You cross your arms, giving him the same silent glare a mother would use with her child. “Oh, come on, love. I’m sorry, okay?” Solomon insists as he steps towards you, placing his hands on your shoulders. As he looks at you with pleading eyes, he slowly begins trailing his hands down your shoulders, resting them on your upper arms. Before you can even register it, his fingers are tickling your underarms. You let out a huge laugh as you try to wrestle away from him but he quickly subdues you by pressing your back into his chest. His arms lock around you, his hands roaming farther and farther down your torso, stopping just above the waistband of your bottoms. “Let me show you just how sorry I am.” You feel him smirk against your neck right before he smothers the skin in bruises.

my boyfriend charlie dalton headcanons ☀︎︎

very passionate writer- not just poetry, but letters, mini stories, etc

writes said love letters to you often

he’ll spray them with his cologne

there was only once he forgot an anniversary, and he spent the next week making it up to you

flowers every day, chocolates on your doorstep every night

likes to bring you to dead poets meetings- sometimes he’ll let you take his part in reading, just so he can hear you speak passionately

likes to draw on you, whether it be with actual pen or just his fingers

you’ll leave with either mini hearts or something very inappropriate

escapes with you to the theatre quite often

he once snuck you backstage to meet a cast you were crazy about

“this is y/n, and i know you guys are a big deal but so are they-“ “charlie!”

another time was just so he could get you alone for more than 15 minutes, doing what, he’ll never tell.

he’s very funny but you’re never the bud of his jokes

actually very cleanly and takes great care of himself

however he doesn’t want anyone to know his elaborate skincare routine

has a very hard time opening up, but once he does, it’s like it’s the easiest thing in the world for him

will do anything to see a smile from you

once jumped into a frozen over lake just to get you to laugh after a long day

he crawled out shivering, cut up a bit from clashing with the thin ice

“why the hell would you do that?!” you say between laughs

looking with a sense of longing you’d had yet to see from him, he said “you could cure the world with that laugh”

you’ve never seen him nervous- that’s not something he does

however, on the rare occasion you sense the tiniest bit of antsy-ness, you’ll grab his arm, ever so gently, and not let go

has never been rough with you in anyway, shape, or form, unless you ask for it, of course.

interlocks fingers when holding hands

has the most meaningful look to him, he doesn’t half ass anything he looks at, especially you

denied how he felt about you for a very long time

the king of avoidance on his feelings, until he met you, that is

the first time he kissed you was when he confessed he liked you

outside of the first annual ball welton academy ever hosted, you followed him outside in a rush of anger after he rejected your plea to join the dead poets for the billionth time.

“i don’t understand why you treat me like this- let me join the dead poets. you know i’m good writer and an even better poet. how much longer is it going to take for you to realize i’ve already won? and that everyone is against you on your denial to let me in? are you afraid of my talent? my wit? what? my seemingly flawless ways i’ve won everyone over except you?”

“i’m afraid of how i feel about you. i’m afraid of the dread, the longing, the space, everything. the continuous push and shove i feel inside every time i find myself enjoying your company for a little too long. I’m afraid of you. you’re my dread and desire in one goddamn place and it kills off every wall i’ve ever put up in my life”

the shock on your face was all it took. he closed the distance and within seconds, you found yourself feeling as weightless as a man on the moon.

he’s the most dedicated person you’ve ever known- surprisingly to even his studies

he hates on cameron the most, but that’s mainly because of his unrequited crush he had on him as kids

you tease him for it all the time,

“i wasn’t the one who was in love with cameron-“ “but you’re in love with me now, so who’s really losing?”

really an incredible romantic

couldn’t plan a bad date even if he tried

a very good kisser,

incorporates everything into a kiss, it’s a full out affair to him

a world class champion at rolling his eyes

very avid in helping you study

he likes to host actual study sessions for just the both of you

but when the others are invited, he always gets it done no matter what

very serious board game player,

tries to get everyone to take up a game with him but they all know how that’ll end

[mothmanssweetsucculentass]

Bloody Painter Headcanons

Did y’all miss these? Idc if this seems like a weird direction to go from my past two HC lists, I’ve always loved Helen as a character and I just went and read up on all the compiled lore DeluCat made of him years ago, and I got some HCs fresh in my mind!

I used THIS YouTube video from DeluCat herself as my main source, assume anything I don’t list/discuss here is filled in by anything here. I’m actually really impressed that she did so much research on different serial killers, psych ward operations, and violent crimes to make Helen as realistic as possible.

Expect canon typical horror/mature topics being discussed from this point forward, nothing is censored beyond this point!!!!

Roughly about 25, give or take a few years

STRICTLY he/him, will react violently if anyone calls him different pronouns, especially feminine ones

Despite this, he’s definitely not cis (it’s actually canon that he’s agender! Friendly reminder that pronouns =/= gender)

Like bro you were literally raised to have a gender crisis. Everyone point and laugh at the egg

Jeff used she/her for him once as a joke and he still has deep scars from what Helen decided to do to him

Like I shit you not, Helen took a sizable chunk of skin out of Jeff’s back, and only stopped because Eyeless Jack physically had to hold him back until Jeff left his line of sight

You wouldn’t even expect such violent outbursts from this guy considering how normally calm he is

Barely talks at all tbh

Like, he’ll interact politely with most of the residents of the mansion and isn’t turned off by conversation, but don’t expect him to hold a full conversation if he deems you boring or unimportant

Which tbh he probably will, he’s not super big on friendships considering how his last one went

Mostly prefers to keep to himself and is often in the more run down/abandoned wings of the manor

Has a naturally more feminine looking face (long eyelashes, smaller nose, etc) and does nothing to try and fix/hide it

Has converted one of the dilapidated rooms into an “art” studio

And by art. Heh. Let’s just say. Corpses

No actually he really just has an entire room dedicated to some of the most fucked up art a person is capable of making

Sculptures made out of bones and flesh, jars filled with coagulated blood submerging his taxidermy projects, eyeball jewelry, teeth jewelry, paint made from pummeled organs and flesh, brandings and etchings on stretched human skin, plushies made of human hair, he’s got it all

He also makes more “normal” art, which in reality is just more traditional mediums that still depict his usual obsessions with violence

Has gotten used to the scent of rot and decay like pretty much every resident has, but is one of the few who enjoys it

Is very selfish, self centered, and has an ego larger than Texas

Him and Ben have a somewhat transactional relationship; Helen films all the depraved torture and crafting he enacts and shares it with Ben, and Ben prints out news articles of Helen’s crimes for Helen to make art with, or just look at to admire his handiwork

ZERO empathy. His morals heavily align with the BEN AI, and even somewhat Slenderman’s

Hates animals. Not cause he’s scared of them or anything, but because he finds their existence useless

…unless he’s using it for fucked up taxidermy

LOVES torture the same way Eyelss Jack loves vivisections

One of his favorite things to do is rip a person’s fingernails out one by one, and then severing the hand and using the bleeding nail beds as the world’s most fucked up large paintbrush

Besides art, he loves to read. Kind of a given considering he’s basically the quiet kid

Loves depraved horror novels and serial killer memoirs/autobiographies

Can speak fluent Chinese, and often shit talks other pastas to their faces without them even knowing

Kagekao learned Chinese just so the two could gossip

Similar to EJ, has a more “buff” physique and has been seen breaking bones effortlessly. When you’ve been murdering steadily for over a decade at this point you kinda just learn where the weak/break points are in the human body

Can improvise anything into a weapon

Actually he really loves killing people with unconventional murder weapons. Scenes are often found with things like metal straws lodged in a victim’s sternum, or the top of a bowling pin shoved down a victim’s throat so far their jaw broke and the victim subsequently choked on their own blood from their shattered teeth

He’s gotten so good at this that the other pastas will literally make a game out of it and challenge him to use an outlandish item as a weapon the next time he kills

“Okay okay how about a bong” “are you being serious right now” “just answer the question art boy” “twice, actually. Though technically I think one of them was a really weird ceramic frog instead. That, or a pcp pipe.” “Awesome”

Hates removing his mask around anyone he’s not acquainted with

Gets reeeaaalll fuckin quiet too

Has gotten so good at being stealthy he doesn’t even alert or startle people like Eyeless Jack does

Surprisingly enough he actually gets enough sleep compared to most of the other residents of the manor

He’s also able to get comfortable and sleep practically anywhere, in the weirdest positions too. Is often found passed out in his studio sitting up, or laying on the floor covered in metal torture tools and bones

Despite his lack of empathy, his blood boils and he seethes if anyone dares to mess with Sally

The first day he stumbled across the manor and introduced himself by what the media called him, Sally gave him a drawing of himself, and he vowed on the spot to look out for the little snot

Is already a naturally patient person, and is incredibly patient and gentle when explaining how to do specific art things to Sally

Jokingly “agrees” with Sally about not liking doctors whenever she’s around eyeless Jack (though in his case he hates psych doctors vastly more than physical ailment doctors)

Back to the patience thing: will stalk a victim for months to toy with them. He has an eternity to do this to people with his newfound abilities granted to him by slenderman, why rush?

Helen 🤝 BEN/Ben = malewhore mansplain manipulate

Will say anything to get what he wants

Thinks in a very transactional and technical way. If you don’t do or offer something to benefit him first, he doesn’t even see you as a person

Is friends/close with: Sally, Eyeless Jack, BEN/Ben, Jason, Ann, and KageKao

Has a tolerable relationship with/is very neutral about: Masky, Hoody, Jane, Liu, Puppeteer, LJ, and Slenderman

Doesn’t get along with/HATES: clockwork, Nina, and Jeff

Him and Jason often collaborate together on pieces involving still living people

Him and Ann have a mutual distaste for doctors/hospital settings, and can often be found stitching up their wounds (or sometimes in Helen’s case a piece involving human flesh) together

Ace, heavily questioning if he’s aro too

He finds Ann aesthetically pleasing to look at, but his thoughts don’t go any further than that. Often uses her as figure practice (with her consent)

Is mainly fascinated by the fact she’s a walking sentient corpse

Tried cannibalism once, wasn’t a fan

Tried going to both Eyeless Jack and Ann once during a dysphoria-spurred panic attack and begged for bottom surgery

“But why tho” “I’m ace. I don’t need it. Don’t women who never want to get pregnant get rid of their uteruses anyways?” “Well, yes, but-“ “so help me god get this thing off my body”

Obviously one of the few times he actually doesn’t appear calm and put together to people. Tries his damn hardest to hide these panic attacks unless around Eyeless Jack or Ann. Would be mortified if Ben, Sally, or any of the loud judgmental pastas saw him in this state

Gives a lot of his full corpse art pieces a physical sex swap

You’re dead but hey free top surgery and you get to be fucked up art

Honestly doesn’t give a shit about symbolism, makes art of whatever he wants/feels like and makes it pretty clear there’s no hidden meaning

[edsanon]

I don’t feel like drawing, so have some platonic Lumi and Alastor headcanons :

They met via Rosie. They had seen each other before, Lumi accidentally helping Alastor taking down on an Overlord, but they officially met via Rosie.

Lumi is terrible at social cues, but they are good at picking up patterns, which is how they can read people, Alastor was no match for that.

Alastor is thankful for that, since Lumi can pick up on people, and Alastor can use that to his advantage to strike deals.

Lumi died in 1917 at 18, while Alastor died in 1933 at 35(ish). They often joke that they could’ve met each other had they lived in the same country, and how they could’ve been around the same age had they died at the same time.

Lumi and Alastor don’t exactly show vulnerability, if at all, so for one of them to show vulnerability, the other will have to show that first. It’s truly a mess.

During the time where Alastor disappeared, Lumi genuinely thought that he had died. They grieved and continued on with their life- until they saw the commercial for the hotel and they recognized him.

Lumi has their little family down in hell : twin sister, younger brother, youngest sister and mother. They do not get along with their mother. Their younger sister and father are in heaven.

Alastor doesn’t really like the twin sister, can barely handle the younger brother. But the youngest sister ? Who is a cannibal ? He adores her ! He doesn’t like children, but Yu is an exception, he secretly spoils her to no end.

Speaking about baby Yu, she resides in cannibal town with Rosie, Lumi visits often.

Alastor believes in discipline that involves hitting children (it’s canon), but he knows better than to hit any of Lumi’s siblings.

Being friends with Lumi made of Alastor a cat person. He hates dogs already, so a friend who is a cat and purrs and smells like happiness and all the best things ever ? Count him in.

Husk dislikes Lumi for this very reason.

Speaking of Husk and Niffty, Lumi likes them, they don’t understand how Husk hates being a cat, they’re apex predators after all, and they like Niffty, and Niffty adores them so much.

Lumi showed her a katana they use when they train with their students, ever since then they became one of Niffty’s favorite person.

Alastor has witnessed how they train their students, they were a samurai after all and he was curious. Let’s just say that watching them gave him new torture ideas with how rough and hard that training looked (He quite felt bad for that one student who had to start over 500 swings because their body wasn’t correctly placed in Lumi’s standards.)

Lumi reads Alastor better than a lot of people, so they know that he loves and craves attention 24/7 among other things. So when the attention is striped away from him (like in episode 5 where Mimzy turned her attention to Lucifer) Lumi is here to give him some attention (“So you used to dance ? Maybe I should accompany you to one of your outings then, I’d like to see that for myself.”)

Which Alastor appreciates immensely.

Lumi has a set of rules they follow to stay on Alastor’s good side.

Alastor was very sour when he learned that Lumi had a partner when they were human. They are the one to always give them the attention he wants and needs, to always praise him in some way, who can understand him like nobody else, he doesn’t want their attention away from him.

In reality when the partner comes along eventually, Alastor has now 2 people hyping him up and giving him attention when he needs it.

And this is Lumi’s partner we’re talking about, when Alastor latches out and tries to make the partner jealous (“I’ve stayed with them for the last 80 years”) instead of being met with anger and jealousy, he is met with patience, gratefulness and understanding. (“I see. Thank you for taking care of them, I am glad they found a friend who cares for them the way you do.”)

Alastor taught Lumi how to cook, and cooks for them sometimes.

And Lumi taught Alastor French. He had a good start, but it could’ve been better.

Lumi speaks 9 languages, and they are native Japanese.

Alastor had to teach himself how to hold chopsticks, and Lumi had to teach themselves how to use a fork.

Whenever Alastor notices that Lumi isn’t doing great (aka they start to melt because when their emotions are too much they become magma and they start to melt), he takes them on a walk in the Bayou side of his room.

Alastor and Lumi fought Adam together, they got severely hurt together and left to lick their wounds together.

Lumi has tagged along on a few radio broadcasts of Alastor, it’s just them sitting next to him, listening and purring quietly.

Alastor loves the sound of their purrs, he wants Husk to make the same sound.

Lumi started to use pet names such as “honey” or “baby” after hanging around Alastor and Rosie as much as they do.

Alastor often calls them “Lumi dear”, and occasionally “Darling” (he found out that the nickname snaps them out when they are panicking or experiencing a flashback of some sort)

Lumi nicknames Alastor “A-kun”

Comfort & Cackles💙💛

I think it’s more than likely that Shiver gets a little down post-Splatfest… quarrel- so it’s become a big headcanon of mine that Frye has been entrusted with not leaving Shiver alone until she gets her to smile again, or in this case to laugh~

[⚠️: Tickling (WOAH REALLY?), mild shipping]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The chaotic city of Splatsville is simmering down after another exciting Splatfest. Every team fought long and hard, although one team in particular seemed to once again stand out above the other two, leading to much unnecessary hate between participants; time and time again, most all of that hate is targeted towards one poor Octoling in particular, and one could imagine how tolling that can be after a while... Luckily, she’s never had to deal with all of it on her own..

Frye slowly opens the door to Shiver’s room, frowning at the sight of her laying at the edge of the bed and facing away from her. As she hears Frye coming over to sit with her, Shiver turns over and shuffles to the center of the bed, where she’s met with a warm embrace from Frye. She gives a small smile as she reciprocates the affection.

At this point, just Frye’s hugs were a quick fix for all the unfair backlash she gets. They don’t even have to say anything, like they can read each other’s minds.

“Feelin’ better now??” Frye finally decides to speak up, lightly stroking the long strand of hair that covers one of Shiver’s eyes, forcing a small chuckle out of her. “Yehes… thank you.” Shiver replies with a big, genuine smile. Frye returns the smile with her own usual fangy grin, pulling Shiver in a bit closer. “Of course bud! Anything to put a smile back on your face.” She chirps and brings her hand back over to lightly pinch and poke at Shiver’s cheek.

“PFFThmhMHM!!”

The room totally goes silent. Shiver cuts herself off and throws her hands over her mouth. Frye backs up and tilts her head to one side, squinting her eyes. “..Youu okay bud.??” She asks in an almost amused tone; all she gets is a weak and giggly “mmhmmm” from the Octoling. 

Frye just stares at Shiver, who’s blushing like crazy and not moving an inch; it’s hard to say if she’s even breathing.. “Oooookayy then..” She tries to shake it off, leaning back in to hug her again, but, expecting the worst, Shiver panics, a giggly squeal escaping through her lips as she aimlessly throws her hands out in Frye’s face.

“Wohohohoah!!—“ Frye chuckles and gets a hold of Shiver’s arms, starting to play with them. “Sharky, what’s going on with you??”

“N-nohothing at all!!” Shiver immediately retorts, leaning back in and resting her head on Frye’s shoulder, trying to just play it cool (which clearly isn’t going too well for her at the moment). Frye raises an eyebrow and smirks. 

“Are you sureeeee??? I don’t think I’ve ever seen you so giggly so suddenly..~”

“Y-yehs, I’m fine…!!”

“Hrmmmmmm..” She can tell something’s going on here.. but what?? “I see there’s something you ain’t telling me..” Frye repositions Shiver so that she’s looking into her eyes. “..so why don’t you just fess up and say it???” 

Shiver shakes her head and looks away, earning herself a sassy groan from Frye. “C’monnnnnn, I’m sooo curious…” She whines, slowly running a finger down Shiver’s upper arm, which, of course, turned her into a giggling mess for a second, this time even sending her flopping down backwards onto the bed, and giggling still after that..

Frye looms over Shiver, still confused out of her mind.. She takes a minute to try and think of any other times Shiver’s been all giggly like this.. and then, just like that… it comes right back to her. It’s been forever, but still.. how could she forget about the pure, giggle-filled moments they’d share with one another so much??

“..Wait a sec now.. I think I got it..~” She says in a slow, eerie tone, making Shiver’s eyes go wide in terror. She DEFINITELY figured it out. Frye raises a hand ad up and points her finger down at Shiver’s tummy and begins to slowly lower it down towards her, making her scream and start trying to squirm and crawl away, until Frye stops her before she could make an escape by locking Shiver’s legs with hers to hold her down.

“Did ya let something slip now..~?” Frye can’t help but giggle a bit herself as she moves that finger around in a circular motion, keeping it coming closer as slow as possible. Shiver is being crushed by that deadly feeling of anticipation, it’s very obviously doing a number on her; she can hardly form words at this point, all that’s really coming out of her mouth is panicked stammers and giggly squeaks~

“PfffffmhmehehahaAH noOO!! FRYE  DOHon’t PLEHehEhease!!!—“

“Ohhhh, but why would we stop now…? The fun hasn’t even started yet!!” 

As Frye says this, she quickly drops her finger down towards her belly, and the Octoling screams at the feeling of it… lightly landing on her skin.. still enough to get a giggle outta her, but not what she was expecting.. and then just a second later she realizes she’s fallen right into a trap..~

Frye stares into Shiver’s horrified eyes that stare back into her own, the Octoling being met with that glimmer of mischief that she knows all too well.. She’ll never understand how Frye’s so good at this..

Frye could tell just what all this is doing to her~ She raises her hand back up, keeping her now-wiggling fingers close to her stomach and once again brings it in closer and closer, until…

“AaaaandGOTCHA!!” She suddenly wasn’t faking her out anymore, but brings her other hand over and digs her fingers into her hip, and Shiver instantly loses all control over herself, descending into an uncontrollable laughing frenzy~

It actually takes Frye a little off guard.. she can’t remember the last time she heard Shiver laugh so hard.. she can’t remember the last time she heard anybody laugh so hard!! It was pretty surprising, but at the same time amusing, and totally endearing too.. She couldn’t help herself, keeping at it the best she could~

“STOHHPSTOHPFFAHAHAHHH STOPIT!!!!” It’s difficult to understand her, as one may imagine, but the message of pleading for Frye to stop still gets out~

“You’re beggin’ already?? I literally just started!!” Frye says with a small laugh as she starts scritching up and down around Shiver’s belly, now using both hands~

Shiver attempts everything in her power to stop Frye, but the best she could do is push her back a little bit.. of course, not enough to stop the tickling.~ Even if she could go into swim form to try getting away, it wasn’t worth the risk of Frye catching her; then she’d keep her here and she’d have signed up for more than she could handle~

 “Y’know you’re pretty cute when you’re wigglin’ around and laughing so much!!” The Inkling chirps, her grin widening at the sight of Shiver once again panicking mid-giggles when she briefly lowers her finger into her bellybutton and scribbles around in there~

“NOONONONONONONOSTAHAHAHP!! STOHPIHIHIT NOTTHEHEHERHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!—“ Shiver finds herself shrieking and squealing more, no matter how hard she tries to hold herself back. Her body ends up totally going limp and she lets all her giggles out, her desperate and frantic squirming being reduced to her jerking around a little bit and laughing her head off.

“You’re so silly!! I’ve missed this~” Frye coos as she leaves Shiver’s bellybutton alone only to spider her way from her sides up to her armpits, and Shiver tries to stop her, mustering enough strength to grab her hands for a sec. “WAiHaihIHIHIHIhIt STAHP!! LEHheHEHeHeHT mEHEEHEE GOhohOHOHOhOHohO!!!!” She holds her the best she can, but when Frye’s thumbs scribble at her palms,she immediately lets go, and it’s game over for her.~

Frye wastes no time at all and rapidly spiders all the way up her sides~ The Octoling tries in a last-ditch effort to quickly clamp her arms down, but by the time she could, Frye’s fingers were already scritching and pinching her armpits. “No escape nowww…aaaaaaaaTICKLETICKLETICKLETICKLE!!!” 

She can’t help laughing a bit along with Shiver, of course it’s not nearly as loud or hysterical, but still laughing out loud. It feels so good to see Shiver like this.. all blushy and giggly~ She’s just too cute!!

Frye finally takes notice of how little Shiver is fighting back, and smirks. “No more pushing or squirming, huh? You‘re lovin this, aren’t ya?? Or has someone been laughing a little too much now??” She teases at her, splitting up her hands so one is tapping at her midriff and the other tracing circles outside of her bellybutton~ 

“HIHIHIHIHISHUhUHUHUTAHAHAHAHAHAHP!!—“ Shiver shouts back, and Frye playfully gasps~ “Uh, rude!! I think we gotta find another tickle spot for that.~” 

“WHAHAHAHAT NOONONONONOHOHO WAHAHAHAHAIT!!!—“ She immediately regrets her choice of phrasing, but even still makes little effort to actually stop Frye~ Keeping Shiver occupied with some tummy squeezes, Frye lets her other set of fingers dance around her body in search of another tickle spot, and soon enough, her sights are set on Shiver’s thighs.

“Oooo what about here..~” She whispers as her hands shoot down to her thighs and squeeze them, making Shiver’s laughter suddenly get really squeaky~ “HIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI NOPLEHEHEHEHEASE!!!!—“ She squeals and begins slightly squirming again~ She can hardly believe how fast Frye is relearning, she has no time to brace herself for any possible next move.! Despite her trying to escape the tickling, she can’t shake off a feeling of bliss and enjoyment in this moment of theirs~

As Frye makes her way back up to her belly, Shiver’s laughter becomes a little less unintelligible. She’s still having a blast, but it’s hard to say how much longer she can handle this..~ “OHKHAHAHAY AHAHAHAHARE WE DOHOHOHONE YEHEHT!?!?” She manages to ask in the midst of her laughing fit~

“Ughh, fine…” Frye playfully rolls her eyes and lifts her hands from Shiver’s belly, lending her a break.~

..Until she pins her down to the bed again and starts tickling aimlessly all around her body~ “But you’re just soo cuteee!!!!”

Shiver gasps loudly and squeals even louder, and as she feels Frye attacking her all around her body, there’s nothing she can do to stop herself from laughing harder than she ever has before, to the point where tears are streaming down her blushy face~ She tries to speak in between giggles but just can’t anymore, not holding back a single laugh~

Every poke or pinch makes Shiver jerk around, but Frye’s hands just follow her wherever she squirms to~ “C’monn now Shiver, you can’t handle a liiitle bit of tickling??” She asks in a baby voice, and Shiver just admits defeat and shakes her head frantically, to which Frye laughs to again~ from her armpits to her ribs and bellybutton, to her belly and thighs, and even briefly behind her knees and her neck, Frye’s hands move rapidly around Shiver’s body, faster than she could react to at all until she’s already being tickled to tears~ But of course, she can tell Shiver’s about reached her limit.

“Hehahahh, okay okay okay!” Laughing about as loud as Shiver’s been, Frye finally lets up, getting of of Shiver and lending her a break. “Wouldn’t wanna over-tickle ya.~” She smiles as Shiver rolls into her lap, still giggling like a kid~

Shiver looks up at Frye with one eye open. That.. was certainly something; definitely the last thing she thought would happen tonight, but she absolutely wasn’t complaining about it. Even though she couldn’t think all that good during the tickling, as her mind was a mess of nonstop giggles, looking back at it brings back loads of good memories. In the impossible scenario that the tickling wasn’t enough, the memories alone would be enough to make her night.~

After a few minutes, Shiver sits up, and is instantly brought into another warm hug from Frye~ “There ya go!! Wasn’t that fun??” She asks and pokes Shiver’s shoulder, making her giggle once again. “Absolutely..” She replies, leaning into Frye.

“We gotta do it more often in that case.~” The Inkling chuckles just before they hear the doorbell ring.

“Ah! That’s Big Man with our grub.~” Frye and Shiver get up from the bed, and before they leave the room, Frye quickly grabs Shiver and gets some last giggles out of her with some kisses to her cheek, and then they leave, mustering up any of their remaining energy to pretend like nothing happened~

Shattered Glass Knock Out Headcanons

These are my personal interpretations of how Knock Out would be in the alternative Transformers universe. I’ve seen a lot of interpretations of him and I’ve also thought about it a lot, so here is an extremely self-indulgent list of purely Transformers brainrot. I just had to put this somewhere before he took over my brain.

APPEARANCE

A blue-green paint coat (the color of hospital scrubs) as the primary color. White markings, or maybe silver for a little contrast.

Bright blue optics.

The elf ears stay.

PERSONALITY

A lot of headcanons portray him as callous when it comes to his appearance, which is great! But allow me to offer: SG!Knock Out who still cares about how he looks, but for completely different reasons.

He doesn't mind being covered in scratches, marks, dents, or the like. He only hates it because it's unhygienic and thus unsuitable for a doctor's office/surgical ward.

He also thinks having a clean appearance gives off a more professional and comforting impression to his patients.

Sometimes, on bad days, it can get a bit...obsessive.

"Um, doc, didn't you already clean-" / "I HAVE TO MAKE SURE BREAKDOWN I HAVE TO MAKE SURE!!!!"

Sometimes it's funny.

"My liege, you know how I respect you, but I swear if you set a pede into this ward without disinfecting your servos at least-"

RELATIONSHIPS

Breakdown: His partner and most trusted confidante in every universe<3 Knock Out tends to worry too much about his health, and insists on a check-up after every battle. Breakdown indulges him, but also makes sure to soothe his worries.

Starscream: My idea of SG!Starscream is that he always downplays how bad his injuries actually are, leading to Knock Out running after him (or, better yet, sending Breakdown to drag him to the medical ward). I like to think they exchange the same playful quips, but with a more somber undertone, because anytime Starscream actually allows himself to stay put in the medical ward means he's been severely injured.

Megatron: Knock Out takes his duty as the leader's official physician way too seriously. He has everything organized: Megatron's daily routine, optimal energon intake, regular check-up appointments. Megatron doesn't really need all that, but he humors him because he knows this is Knock Out's way of dealing with the guilt when he can't save a patient.

OTHER DETAILS

Speaking of guilt - Knock Out is really bad at not blaming himself. When vehicons are offlined and he's forced to disassemble them, he will later still remember where each piece came from, even if it's been attached to another bot.

I like to think this version of KO still likes the art of disassembly, but less out of a delighted, morbid curiosity and more out of a desire to learn more about Cybertronian anatomy.

He still street races with humans, but again, for entirely different reasons: he's fascinated by them, and has since picked up an e-book on human anatomy. And when he street races them, he always plays fair, and takes quite a great offense if another participant doesn't follow the rules. Allow me to demonstrate.

Racer: [keys Knock Out's side door]

KO, swerving to face him: Excuse me, are you out of your mind? Why would you ever ruin the joy of a good race with this childish behavior? And I have patients, you know! What would they think of their own doctor if they saw him in such unseemly fashion?

Racer: Wh-

KO, full on ranting: And I barely squeezed this race in between my busy schedule! Now I have to go back to base, disinfect the scratch, get buffed, all in time to prepare my office for the next line of patients! Do you have any idea how demanding it is to be a doctor on a warship? Always on call! I had this one hour to myself-

[It is at this point that Breakdown shows up to calm his favorite doctor. They end up just racing together<3 ]

And that's basically all I can think of, for now. My version of SG!KO because I know I'll never write this. Feel free to add more in the tags or whatever you like :)

[giggly-squiggily]

Okay, I just watched Moriarty the Patriot recently and been obsessed with them(as I’m sure you can tell considering I liked every fic you had of them😜) Anyway! I was thinking of the reunion. We know William survive, but he lives in Switzerland and we know Sherlock moves out there with him as well. So, the Moriarty brothers, James Bonde(Irene Adler), Fred, Moran, and Jack goes to Switzerland and they see William and Sherlock and after the tears and words that haven’t been said that are finally spoken they have a they have a tickle fight.

{Headcanons to Dabbles: CLOSED!}

JEJRJERJEKJRJKE YESH! I love this so much alrkaejrajkej This kinda turned into "Let's wreck William- the dabble" but like- the tickle fight elements are in there! I hope you like it friend :3

William hadn’t realized how hollow he felt until he was in the arms of his brothers once more.

Louis’ wet voice saying his name, Albert’s arms strong and steady- the dull ache in his chest was finally starting to ease as he breathed them in, barely fighting off his own tears as he squeezed them close. “I’ve missed you…I’ve missed you all so much. Welcome home.”

Around him, he heard movement- Moran barely hiding a sniffle while Bonde bumped him gently, Fred offering his assistance to Sherlock as they carried in bags. Soon though, it was just them once more; three brothers no longer separated.

“Come now- let’s go in before we catch our deaths out here.” Albert was the first to pull away, shivering as the cold air cut through his jacket.

“Have you been well? You’re thinner than last time I’ve seen you.” Louis noted, hand already out and squeezing William’s side. “You’ve been eating, yes?”

“Ah-Yes, yes I ha-have! Louis!” William caught the investigative hand, pulling it away gently from his waist. “Please!”

“Forgive me brother- just worried.” Despite the apology, Louis was smiling, sharing a look with Albert across his shoulder. Oh dear- this wasn’t going to end well.

~~~

Sometimes, William hated how right he was.

“L-Louis, really! I’m fine, I promise!” He scooted back further in his seat against the couch, hands held up as his brother approached. “There’s no need to interrogate me further!”

“Who said anything about interrogating? I just haven’t heard you laugh in such a long time. Neither of us had, right Albert?” Louis turned to their eldest brother, nodding once.

“But of course, Louis. I for one missed our dear brother smiling and laughing. The last time we’ve all seen one another- well, you were quite the character.” The brunette moved quickly, snatching up William’s wrists with ease, pulling them up and out of the way. “I don’t fault you for it- but I would prefer my next big memory of you in mirthful tears, not pained ones. Ready?”

“Ready!”

“Oh no- don’t you da-ahahhhahahahre!” William all but broke when Louis grabbed his sides, tapping against them with rapid speed. He’d gotten better at tickling in their time apart. “Lohohohoohuis, pleahhahahhahahse!”

“There it is! That’s the look we’ve been longing to see.” Louis giggled softly, easily switching from tapping to pinching and further sending William into giggly hysterics. “It’s so refreshing to hear it, don’t you agree?”

Albert was quiet, watching William laugh with the fondest of expressions. When his voice wouldn’t work, he simply smiled, alternating his grip so he could hold William’s wrists with one hand and tickle him with the other.

“Ah! Nohohohohot youhuohohohu twohohohooho! Alhahhahahahhalbehehehehhert!” William could barely speak, flustered and breathless. He was happy though- it was clear as day on his face as his brothers drew out every once of laughter he buried away for so long.

“What a sight to see, wouldn’t you agree?” Hidden just out of view by  the doorway, Moran grinned at Bonde, arms folded across his chest. “Hadn’t seen that sight in awhile.”

“Yes. It’s lovely.” They nodded, equally moved by the nostalgic sight. For a moment, they stood there taking it all in. Then…

“Shall we go get Fred? Give him a similar treatment?”

“I thought you’d never ask.”

~Kaoru Kiryuu Dating Headcanons~

~~~🎐~~~🎐~~~🎐~~~

Fandoms: Futari wa Precure Splash☆Star, Otona Precure

Fanfic Type: Headcanons

Reader: Gender neutral

Relationship: Romantic

Characters Included: Kaoru Kiryuu

Genre: Fluff

Rating: PG

Warnings: None!

~Masterlists~

~Futari wa Precure Splash☆Star Masterlist~

Guide: Reader’s dialogue is uncolored, Kaoru’s dialogue is blue and Michiru’s dialogue is pink.

~~~🎐~~~🎐~~~🎐~~~

~ It takes a while for Kaoru to form strong bonds with people, so it also took a while for her to fall in love with you. Once she did, the only person who noticed was her sister, Michiru. She was smiling way more, mostly in your presence. She’d also bring you up during conversations that had nothing to do with you.

“Why do you speak of (name) so much, Kaoru?”

“I’m not sure. They just come to mind often.”

“Does it make you happy?”

“Yes.”

“Well, I hope you’re aware of what you’re feeling.”

“Yes. I believe I am.”

~ Having never been in love before, she decided to take a safe, classic approach to confessing to you. That being a small gift and some honest words about how you made her feel. Because of the way she speaks, it came out nearly poetic. She made it very clear that there was no pressure to accept her feelings, but she was still noticeably happy when you did.

~ Kaoru is not a super emotional person, even less so visibly. However, her feelings are much more noticeable around you. This is partly because you make her this way, and also because she wants you to know how she feels. She understands that it can be hard to tell, so she wants to make it easier for you. She’d hate for any misunderstandings.

Your friend: “What’s wrong, Kaoru?”

“Nothing.”

“Really? Are you sure? You look upset.”

“What are you talking about? She’s not upset. I can tell she’s really happy right now!”

“Okay. I’ll trust you, because I can never tell.”

~ She doesn’t show a lot of physical affection. It has nothing to do with you. It’s just not the kind of person she is. She does, however like holding and kissing your hand. It’s a subtle, but sweet way of showing appreciation. When it comes to you showing affection, she doesn’t mind one bit. She’s not one to get embarrassed about it, so go right ahead.

~ She’s not the kind of person who needs fancy or extravagant dates. She prefers staying home, or going to a small local restaurant. But that’s just her preference. If you want something else, she won’t complain. Anything to see you happy!

“Is there any specific movie you’d like to watch, (name)?”

“Have you ever seen (childhood movie)?”

“I have not.”

“It’s really good! I’ve loved it since I was a kid.”

“Alright. Then let’s watch it.”

~ Kaoru is new to romance, so there are things she’ll need teaching on. She understands things that come to common sense, but she gets stuck on some other, more traditional things. Rather than bothering you about it, she just turns to the internet for guidance. She wants to be the best version of herself for you, so she wants all the information she can get.

~ She is scary good at reading you. She can tell exactly what you’re feeling, and in some cases, what you’re thinking. This comes in handy for many situations. If you’re ever feeling uncomfortable or overwhelmed in a social situation, she’s quick to get you out of it. And if you’re feeling down, she’ll subtly do things to lift your spirits.

“Your eyes are droopy. Are you feeling tired?”

“Yeah, a bit.”

“I can take you home if you’d like.”

“It’s okay. We don’t have to leave if you don’t want to.”

“I assure you, I couldn’t care less. Now, let’s go.”

Fuck it, Simon Belmont, because why not you basically themed your blog after him

You don’t have any specific numbers, so I’m just answering every question >:3c mwahahaha—

1. “Why do you like this character”:

A lot of reasons!!! First off, most of his games are super fun and some of my favorite platformers just in general. I replay CV1, Simon’s Quest, and SCV4 most often cause they’re a real joy to play! I also absolutely LOVE Simon’s story, I’ve considered making comics about it if I could ever get out of recent art block whoops, even though I’ve seen many people say he doesn’t have one (´TωT｀). His designs are really cool, he’s got great music in his games, there’s just a lot to love and I’ll explain more in detail in other questions.

2. “Favorite canon thing?”

I really like the concept that he looks up to Christopher as this legendary hero and then ends up considered the same kind of legendary hero by Juste and others after him. It’s pretty ironic, kinda bittersweet, especially after being hated for so long. Castlevania loves its cycles like that. Also just Simon’s Quest in general, I love that game.

3. “Least favorite canon thing?”

Ooo that’s very hard. There’s kinda a lot of things about him that aren’t explained or confirmed, especially personality wise, but I kinda like that in a way cause it leaves room for interpretation and whatnot. Idk hmmm. I’m gonna go with Grimoire of Souls in general. I had some hopes for it, but it ended up being kinda lame. A lot of the characterization was weird and don’t even start me on things like the Cursed Whip theory being in there 💀. So I just choose to ignore it and not consider it canon.

4. “If you could put this character in another media, what would it be?”

I have thought about drawing him as if he was a character in other series for ages lol. I’ve already drawn him as a Pokémon trainer, I’ve thought about drawing Castlevania and Soul Eater crossovers before, and I tried drawing him in the style of Resident Evil 1 but could not get the art style down. Idk put him in Fortnite or something that’d be funny we already got Solid Snake so Konami has been in talks with them I guess X,,,,,,,,,,D

5. “What’s the first song that comes to mind when you think of them?”

Probably either Simon’s Theme (of course lol) or Bloody Tears, but I do wanna mention that I have a YouTube playlist of songs I wanna make Simon animations with eventually (alas animation is HARD).

6. “What’s something you have in common with the character?”

Mostly negative things unfortunately d(;w; ). Like self comparison, doubt in my own abilities, trouble making and keeping friends, etc etc. Although a lot of these are based on assumptions and interpretations, as a lot of him usually is. Simon does have a really similar hair color to me on the NES box art tho so that’s cool.

7. “What’s something the fandom does with this character that you like?”

There’s a lot of really nice art of him!!! Usually portraits, but sometimes there’s other doodles and whatnot too :3. Cool fan redesigns too! I also have seen a lot of neat headcanons, a lot of which I’ve adopted. I also appreciate the Captain N reunion stuff for the most part, it’s pretty wholesome.

8. “What’s something the fandom does with this character that you don’t like?”

I’ve seen a lot of comics, especially around when Smash Bros Ultimate came out, that were really… weird. I think all of them could kinda be boiled down to “old = bad” in the way that the artists probably just found out he was from the 1600s and then decided to make him the Boomer to Richter’s Gen Z for whatever reason (ya know despite Richter being from the 1700s but anyway). Simon would either be the jerk in the situation and/or the butt of the joke. I don’t think that Simon would have any issue with any of the female characters’ outfits let alone start harassing them for it. I saw some comics that made fun of him for not speaking very much in some genuinely disgusting ways too. Like making him not able to read or practically just the generic caveman stereotype. Especially in cases where the artist would depict other silent NES protagonists really nicely after making Simon out to be a complete idiot and asshole. There was also the trend of making him generally be all “oh no witchcraft!!!!!!!!!! What sin!!!!!!! The horror!!!!!!!!” about like anything and everything. I guess a lot of this comes from Smash Bros fans not usually being fans of Castlevania, but I’ve seen it in the Castlevania fandom too just less frequently. There’s also the “Simon has no story” thing oof. I’ve seen people tell people to skip his games or play fan games instead before :(

9. “Could you be roommates with this character?”

Realistically, no, my room is too small for another person :(. If that wasn’t an issue, then yeah probably :).

10. “Could you be best friends with this character?”

I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO—

11. “Would you date this character?”

No, he’s probably married, generally feels more like a bestie, and I’m aroace lol

12. “What headcanon do you have for this character?”

Too many oh my god. I think he probably makes things. That’s a very vague sentence lol, but think like armor, knives, general woodworking, all his necklaces and headbands and stuff, etc. He generally seems like he keeps to himself and lives mostly alone, so I can see him doing all that by himself. He keeps some bones and teeth of things he hunts most of the time. A lot of people have him as the most super Christian of the family, but I see him as like Christian but really not organized or strict about it, if that makes sense? I’ve seen someone else describe the Belmonts as like “Christopagan” before and yeah I think that fits. Idk why but I have consistently drawn him with his cross necklace in his mouth sometimes. I headcanon him as semiverbal (I think that’s the correct term for it, basically like inbetween speaking and nonspeaking). I like to think he’s like really average height for the 1600s cause he’s about as tall as other townspeople and skeletons and stuff. Which is funny cause that’d make him like 5’5-5’7 ish and that’s kinda short in modern day lol. And I guess that makes his 8bit sprite being used all the time make more sense XD. I have way more, I didn’t even get into Simon’s Quest related ones, but I don’t wanna make this too long aaaaaaaaaaaa

13. “What’s an emoticon that reminds you of the character or you think they’d use a lot?”

Ok this is funny cause I actually do have one for this and it’s got context. It’s the “:3”. So I was watching a bunch of people’s playthroughs one night cause I was bored and ran into a channel with a toooooon of speedruns of maps from Harmony of Despair. Whenever they’d get to a boss battle they’d use the typing feature just to go “hi” with a different cutesy emoticon every time, but when they got to Dracula they specifically went for the “hi :3” and then went “oh no :(“ when Dracula started attacking and now that’s the way I think he’d text I guess.

14. “Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character”

How does one properly explain how much this guy slays in one aesthetic term—

15. “What’s your favorite ship for this character?”

Oooooo, in canon probably like his wife (Selena) and/or the Mysterious Woman (who could be the same character depending on what theories you go by), but outside of that Simon Belmont x Getsu Fuma and I can’t even explain exactly why, but it’s pretty cute.

16. “What’s your least favorite ship for this character?”

Any BelmontXBelmont shipping ugh, it’s unfortunately really common on some places… also the whole Lucas or Pit or whatever other child character thing the smash bros fandom had ugh. I guess I also just don’t see the appeal of shipping any of the Belmonts with Dracula.

17. “What’s a ship you don’t hate but it’s not your favorite?”

I’ve also seen people ship him with Solid Snake, Palutena, or Bayonetta before. Ummm he doesn’t really have a lot of other characters he’s shipped with tbh. Idk I saw someone ship him with one of the priests from Simon’s Quest once.

18. “Relationship in canon you admire?”

Unfortunately he doesn’t really talk to people enough in game to form canon relationships 😔

19. “Relationship in canon you don’t like?”

I don’t even know if I can answer this one for the same reasons as the above 💀💀💀. I guess the townspeople hating the hell out of him, but I don’t hate that cause it’s kinda integral to the plot???? Yeah idk lol

20. “What character is the ideal best friend for this character?”

Simon and Shanoa would get along a lot I think. Sara too. Hmmmm… I think he and Alucard would probably also be good friends. Christopher too for many reasons. Simon just really needs friends my poor dude is out here in Dracula’s Castle and the Romanian countryside after being cursed alone like this poor guy :’(

21. “If you’re a fic writer, what’s your favorite thing to do when writing this character? What’s something you don’t like?”

I have not written much at all, however what small comics I have done I looooove to make sure to sprinkle in whatever symbols he has in the games into it. He has a lot of cool things ranging from like rose thorns to The Hanged Man card and a lot of them end up meaning things like martyrdom and whatnot idk I made a post about it a while ago :3. I also like specifically Simon’s Quest speculation stuff, like what if scenarios for the vague, left open spots of it. If it’s not something super angsty or lore heavy, it’s usually just wholesome character interactions or doodling him being comforted by Christopher or Trevor cause I was sad or something lol. As far as things I don’t like writing uh idk that’s hard, maybe just any kind of filler scenes cause I’m not very good at those oof. Dialogue is hard too 💀💀💀

22. “If you’re a fic reader, what’s something you like/don’t like to see in fics?”

I’ve mentioned a lot of things I don’t like seeing in uh question 8, but things I do like is when people really try to go full horror with him. I’ve seen some Simon’s Quest fics (sadly there’s very few :’3) that really try to get that same feeling of anxiousness and dread the game does and I love that honestly. It’s a really dark story in the series! I also saw one that went psychological horror with it with him kinda losing himself a little at night it’s just ough it’s cool :D! Simon is a horror protagonist! Make him afraid!!!

23. “Favorite picture of this character?”

Again, too many!!! X3

24. “What other character from another fandom reminds you of them?”

Not from fandoms I am in (yet, hopefully I’ll get into these), but Ragnvaldr from Fear and Hunger I’ve heard is just directly inspired by him and Alfred from Bloodborne also, to me, seems heavily inspired by him. The whole Vilebloods section seems very Castlevania inspired tbh. From other fandoms I’m in, that’s hard to say, there’s not really any I don’t think.

25. “What was your first impression of this character, is it the same as now?”

Well I got into Castlevania through Smash Bros and at first was completely indifferent about him, he was just kinda fun to play as. Then Richter got me to play SotN and actually get into the series more. I had no idea I had SotN on XBOX360 for a long time, but that made it pretty easy to start playing. And now I am absolutely hooked and Simon is my favorite character so uh yeah X3.

26. “Freebie!”

I guess I just say anything? Ok, I am currently half trying to cosplay Simon’s Simon’s Quest design rn! I have like everything but the armor, but I’ll have to wait a while to be able to get materials for it oof. But yeah :). Hopefully that works out. 

Ok yeah that’s pretty dang long wow, but yeah, thanks for the ask!!!! I am happy to rant about Simon anytime :3

While I’m not a dinbo fan (din/fennec all

The way) I do have to say your positivity of this season is refreshing. I feel like I’ve been defending this season all by myself. Dave and Jon are excellent writers and I trust them with my whole heart. This season has really focused on the subtle plot choices that are going to come clashing together and make sense.

Nice to see another fan enjoying the show. 🧡

I love this! Thank you so much for sharing these thoughts. It's so nice to hear from other voices who are not so quick to jump on the negativity bandwagon. The Mandalorian tag has definitely had its ups and downs over the seasons. I can remember when the chief complaint was that there were too many episodes with canned plots that were "filler" or "slow" or "side quests" and everyone kept asking "where is the plot?" Of course, the overarching plot (that all those canned episodes contributed important pieces to) always came crashing down in the last few episodes of the season and they complained about that too.

This season has seen a lot more world building and has been incredibly focused on character development. The chief complaint I've heard now is that Din's character is "regressing" or being "sidelined". In the first two seasons, Din's priority was a) keeping Grogu alive and b) getting Grogu to a permanent home. Since The Book of Boba Fett, Din has accepted that Grogu is now his responsibility for the long haul. That has shifted his whole world. He can't keep dragging a baby on bounty hunting missions and even if he could, he wants something better for Grogu. He wants to give him a home and people, a stable lifestyle. Bo-Katan can make that happen and he is willing to support her in any way possible to help her succeed - not just for his and Grogu's benefit - because he truly believes in her.

And though I understand and respect that Dinbo is not everyone's cup of tea, I do believe that is the direction the writers are taking their relationship, especially in light of the fact that Bo has voluntarily (with zero prompting from Din) assumed a motherly role with Grogu. For me, I just really want to see these characters find some peace and happiness. I know that in Star Wars peace is always temporary, but it would be very satisfying for me to see Grogu, Din, and Bo (three characters who started this journey utterly alone) become a family. They have each grown so much over these three seasons and the writers have spent the most time focusing on them for a reason. I believe their story can be told well without detracting from the bigger picture of restoring Mandalore and pushing back against the restoration of the Empire.

We know that Star Wars fans are a toxic bunch who aren't happy unless they're complaining. I'll be the first to admit, I went through a phase where I really hated on the sequels (even though I was actually enjoying them until TRoS). We've all done it. And let's be real, there are legitimate reasons to be critical of some of these shows/movies. But I really do believe that a lot of the negativity over this season of The Mandalorian has been predominantly from fans who were just salty that their hyper specific headcanons weren't coming true or because they jumped the gun and judged it before they got to the end. If I had a nickel for every complaint about loose threads, I'd be rich. Even before the season is complete, the vast majority of those threads or pieces have become relevant and now everyone can clearly see why those were important. Patience is a virtue, y'all. Let the season play out and just learn to enjoy the ride. Save your criticisms for after it's done - you'll probably have a lot less of them and you'll undoubtedly feel less stupid when that plot thread you thought was just dropped actually became relevant (looking at you people who thought they went through all that trouble with IG-11 for no reason). Maybe we should all start meditating on my new favorite Mandalorian proverb:

"One does not speak unless one knows."

It sounds a lot like this other favorite of mine:

"Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace; When he shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive." Proverbs 17:28

[lulu2992]

I just want to share something really quick, and I'd love to hear your two cents on this.

One of the best things about Collapse (despite its flaws) for me was the Voice not being as benevolent of an entity as Joseph initially thought. That reveal actually gave me a lot of vindication on my own personal headcanons surrounding the Voice before Collapse had been released. And it's something I don't really see talked much about, often times its brushed over really.

The Voice is manipulative, especially on Joseph, and I actually believe that the only reason Joseph was given the visions of his family alive in New Eden was so it could a) ensure Joseph stayed devoted and b) just to give Joseph a false sense of hope and ultimately laugh at Joseph's desperate attempts to keep his family (such as John) alive and for his eventual breakdown over their deaths (I headcanon that the Voice had never intended for Joseph's siblings to survive). It uses its cunningness, omnipresence and ever knowing knowledge to create and execute plans accordingly, and with just how arrogant it is, you just know it expects things to happen according to how it wants and must have a kick in watching Joseph and many others suffer, helpless to its power. It clearly knew what it was doing when it chose to speak Joseph right after his wife's death. I have no doubt that the Voice anticipated/expected Joseph to sacrifice his infant daughter, despite how the situation was presented as a test or choice to Joseph.

I don't even think it ever actually cared if 3000 souls were saved in the bunkers from the Collapse. The Voice definitely doesn't cry a river about it. It just wanted to string Joseph along and play him like a fiddle until it eventually gets bored with him. And just thinking about it makes my heart ache for Joseph even more. There was no happy ending for him from the beginning. The Voice played Joseph from start to finish, giving him moments of hope and peace (finding his family again, being right about the Collapse, New Eden, the Captain of Security's arrival) before taking it away (the Deputy killing his siblings, the post-Collapse world not being as peaceful or fulfilling as he expected, New Eden burned to the ground, and Ethan's bitterness and envy growing to corrupt and eventually kill him) because the Voice is just that cruel.

The Voice is the greater-scope villain. It planned, and inflicted pain and suffering and misery on Joseph (a devoted instrument) and everyone else around him just because it could and wanted to do it.

Collapse wasn't a DLC I enjoyed very much, but the Voice will always be a highlight for me. It's now one of my favourite "love to hate" antagonists. And it gives me a real rush of serotonin thinking about the Far Cry 5 fics I want to write that are heavily dipped in a "screw destiny" plotline just to wipe the Voice's smugness.

Yeah, that's all I wanted to get off my chest. Happy second day of 2023 (or first depending on your timezone).

I like what they chose to do with the Voice in Collapse too! Even though it’s also played by Greg Bryk, the fact that it shows Joseph his future as we’ve seen it in New Dawn indicates that the Voice is clearly not a figment of his imagination. In the DLC, Joseph had no idea what New Eden would look like, that the Deputy would become his Judge, and even that he had a son, but he saw all of that because the Voice is real and omniscient, not just “in his head”. I’ve been saying that “God” was the true villain of Far Cry 5 all along and, even if I don’t consider the Far Cry 6 Season Pass canon for many reasons, I was glad the new writing team agreed with that!

Ironically, the Voice being malevolent, choosing the highly devoted, well-meaning Joseph Seed as a punching ball for its own enjoyment, ruining his life, and never intending to keep its promises (except the Apocalypse, so the death of millions of people) can also explain several of New Dawn’s inconsistencies and why that game’s ending felt pointless. I don’t know if it was intentional and the DLC’s writers thought that “the Voice never cared about anything or anyone and did things just because it felt like it” was the best solution to make everything sort of make sense but, honestly, they’re not really wrong…

I’m not sure the Voice was supposed to be 100% evil and manipulative in the minds of the original Far Cry 5 writers, but I think Collapse was right for showing that Joseph was telling the truth, merely following orders, and that, because of his unwavering faith, had to suffer the loss of everyone he loved. I’m obviously not saying he didn’t do bad things, but it’s important to remember why he did them. Making the Voice Joseph’s guide and villain in the DLC was a great idea.

And, yes, it was the second day of 2023 for me when you sent this, so thank you very much, and happy 6th(?) day of 2023 to you :D

[danny-chase]

Ok I’ll just send a few of my unpopular opinions for you to react to later lol

1. I think a lot of Jason Stans act like Tim Stans as of recent and say he’s the smartest bestest batfam member. The smartest Robin thing is stupid because they’re all smart and it depends on who is writing.

2. As much as I want it to be true I don’t think Dick is queer-coded or bi in canon. I can’t speak for the stuff in the 80’s and earlier but most of the stuff I’ve read makes him so straight (especially Tom Taylor) 😭

3. Dick was not the angry Robin or an angry person in general and so many people take his angry moments out of context.

4. I want Clark and Lois to have another kid because they robbed us of Jon content and I think giving him a sibling would be neat

Pls don’t hate me 😭

1. I don't really pay attention to that so I don't know

2. Recent stuff? Yeah no. Outsiders 2003? Maybbbe? Winick explicitly had Grace call out the sexual tension between Dick and Roy, and call them a cute couple, it definitely felt like he was flirting with the idea, haven't looked at his intentions. Devin Grayson, a writer on Nightwing in the 00s also said in an interview she headcanoned him as bisexual. It's also worth mentioning Inheritance was officially put out by DC which is probably the most intentionally queer coded Dick's ever been in anything, i haven't read it, but seen some quotes and yeah. When most ppl refer to old stuff in the 80s they're talking about ntt, which yeah discowing outfit is camp, Marv Wolfman i believe was trying to write Dick as straight and accidentally added some gay moments in (like Dick meeting Joey i was like??? Marv are you bi and never realized you were into men??? Because that's how your Dick internal narration comes off). Either way, while i joke about those moments I don't consider them queercoding because to me they didn't seem intentional

3. I feel like this one's pretty popular among Dick fans. Dude started out as angry, calmed down, stiffened into a rigid little guy (teen titans 66 era Dick my beloved, he's such a square i love him). In canon generally his anger has a cause, not unlike the rest of us shshsh

4. I don't like what they did aging up Jon, and i don't really care if they have another kid 🤷‍♀️

I'm not gonna hate you shdhhdhdhdh it's just opinions

[decent0distraction]

Does anyone else watch those teacher skit videos on TikTok by SquireHaligast I think his name is?

Well, if you do, here’s my head canons on the characters, if you care. I might add drawings later if I’m feeling brave, but we’ll see.

To begin, we have Ethan.

Ethan is male, he/him. He has an average group of friends who do average teen things. I wouldn’t say he’s really in any clubs or sports, since he canonically is jaded and apathetic. He slacked off a bit his first two years of high school. Now a junior taking a senior class (which is canon), he wants to be done with school but he isn’t sure where he wants to go with his life.

During the conversation he and Haligast have in the theme episode (the one where Ethan is bored and can’t focus and the assignment is to read a short paragraph and identify the theme), Ethan mocks Haligast by looking through the classifieds. Haligast suggests he should be an English teacher, telling him that he’ll have be able to identify theme though. This gets Ethan to focus.

Based on that, my headcanon is that Ethan considers becoming a teacher but instead goes on to be a high school counselor instead. He understands what’s it like to be a lost kid, laughing at everything until you wake up one morning and you don’t get the joke anymore. Or maybe you just can’t, because you’re too tired; too bored.

Next up is Sam. I wasn’t sure about their gender at first, but someone said they sound like Brennan Lee Mulligan and after rewatching the “New assigned seats game” episode and the episode where Sam is “upset” about being in Haligast’s class again, here’s what I came up with.

Sam, they/him, chronically intelligent to the point that they don’t see the point in not being in control, because if it were up to these idiots he would never admit he loved, everything would go down like a lead balloon. In the episode where Sam helps Ethan figure out what score he needs on the next assignment, Sam uses language and vocab associated with Dungeons and Dragons. A big part of my headcanon is that Sam not only hosts DND games with his friends, but he convinced Haligast to host the DnD club at the school when he was only a freshman.

Sam seems to have a love/hate relationship with Ethan. Ethan isn’t nearly as smart as Sam, but Ethan is much more flexible. Like Ethan, Sam is a junior taking a senior class. But while Ethan had to request the harder class and make up in summer school for skipping Junior Lit, Sam got placed in class due to exceptional grades. I like think that they were friends maybe in the 8th grade or at some point, but as Sam became more and more ahead of the curb, Ethan was further left behind. As juniors, they still hang out in class, but they don’t sit together at lunch and you’ll never catch Ethan in DnD club or Sam at whatever sports game Ethan is pretending to care about.

John! My favorite character, honestly. He/him, John has always been quiet. Everyone is used to it. They don’t expect him to speak, so when he finally does (like in the pep assembly episode), they’re taken aback.

But John knows who he is and he cares about his friends and his grades. When he gets a taste of being the teacher, of being someone that important, he realizes that he wants to be seen. He just needed the right stage. He goes on to be a teacher (an English teacher obviously)

The kid in the t shirt. We don’t know their name. We just know that they’re usually the mediator between Sam and Ethan. In the transfer from 3rd period episode, they come off as petty and almost resentful of the kids named from 3rd period, eyeing Alex when they come in.

Until we have a name, my headcanon is that this is the first official girl of the group. I’ve been calling her Emily in my notes, I don’t know why.

But Emily, she/her, doesn’t get involved unless it directly concerns her. In the “Stalemate, Almost” episode where the kids argue over a game, movie, or talking, she tries to direct them to one thing, which prompts Sam to ask if she’ll be boring forever or if she’ll get a personality for Christmas.

Emily is intelligent, but she can disengage unlike Sam. She’s relaxed like Ethan, but she can go toe to toe with Sam. I don’t think we’ve seen her interact with John, but we get two filler characters in “Stalemate, Almost”. One is wearing a long sleeved black shirt and the other is in a grey t shirt. Ethan bargains with the kid in the long sleeved black shirt, and Emily backs him up. Grey t shirt kid counter argues and Emily keeps it up, defending her stance with the other movie people.

Overall, Emily is a chameleon, but she’s not afraid to stand by her friends and her opinions. I definitely think she and Sam are academic rivals.

Alex, the transfer kid, they/her. I choose to believe that she and John are friends, given how they immediately sit next to him and talk about how they’re excited to be in the class.

Alex is from 3rd period, which is described as calmer by their own teacher. I think that means that Alex is hardworking, friendly, and keeps to herself. She’s polite to the others when she walks in, but she directly speaks to John. She greets Sam, who doesn’t actually say hi to her. My headcanon is that she was invited to Sam’s dnd club by a friend or boyfriend/girlfriend and Sam is simply threatened by her.

Alex plays themself off to not be as intelligent as she actually is, claiming she doesn’t know what the counselor meant when they said they had to “even things out”. She comes off as fidgety and nervous, but she’s better at conversation and settling in than John is.

That’s all I have so far. I think it’s kind of weird that I’m making headcanons for these videos, but it’s my comfort show (I know it’s not a show, shut up). Don’t overthink any of this. It’s just for fun.
