MC Who Sleeps Like The Dead - Headcanon

Arcana Characters (Main 6) x MC

A/N: for another lovely anon! I just finished drawing one of my OCs to prepare for art fight, so I’m feeling a bit more inspired than usual! Please let me know if there are any spelling or grammar mistakes :) requests are open!

❤️Julian❤️

This is a man who runs on stress and caffeine, so he’s always up at ungodly hours of the night

Your ability to sleep through every instance of him stubbing his toe or bumping his head, or just generally swearing at whatever script or medical case he’s having trouble with at the moment is a blessing in his opinion

Of course, on the rare occasions that you manage to get him to bed, he’ll be as out of it as you are, if not more so

He flails in his sleep, and since it won’t be waking either of you up any time soon, there’s a good chance you’ll both end up with some mystery bruises

He’ll feel a bit bad about it in the morning, but it’s nothing some kisses can’t fix

🧡Portia🧡

Considering how tired she usually is by the end of the day, she’s a surprisingly light sleeper

This can be a problem for her when Pepi decides she wants to make biscuits and Portia’s the only potential victim around

So when you two start sleeping in the same bed, she sacrifices you to Pepi and makes sure she’s the one sleeping next to the wall

Pepi seems satisfied with this arrangement and leaves Portia alone, meaning she gets the sleep she needs and you get a cat to cuddle with while you’re unconscious

It’s also great for when she needs to get up early for work; she can make as much noise as she wants while she’s getting ready, and you’ll sleep right through it

💛Lucio💛

No no no, this will not do

Lucio operates under the assumption that if he’s awake, you’re also supposed to be awake

So if he’s having trouble sleeping while you’re snoozing away next to him, he will be trying his best to wake you up

His attempts will start with whispers and a couple gentle pokes, but when you don’t look like you’ll be getting up soon it quickly becomes less subtle

This man will fully kick you off the bed and onto the cold floor to get you up

If you sleep through that, he’s gonna get really close to your ear and scream

For the sake of everyone else nearby, you may need to learn to sleep less heavily

💚Muriel💚

He’s a light sleeper thanks to anxiety, and he doesn’t really understand how someone can sleep as deeply as you do

In the early days of your relationship he was a bit worried that there might be something wrong with you

Once he settles into the idea that you Will Not Be Woken Up before you’re good and ready, he takes full advantage of the extra alone time it gives him

It’s nice to just coexist with you and go about his day without worrying about waking you up

Once Inanna took a nap on you and he thought you may have actually suffocated under her, but turns out you were fine

He does not mention this to you when you wake up

💙Asra💙

While he certainly sleep often, he does not sleep heavily

If he’s sitting down, then he’s probably already at least 10% asleep

He doesn’t usually sleep in the traditional sense, and instead takes a few extended naps throughout the day

So when you’re getting your proper 8 hours, he may be laying awake beside you, gently rubbing your back and reading a book

He likes that his sleep schedule doesn’t affect yours, and that he gets to see you so peaceful and far from the stresses of life

💜Nadia💜

Most of her life is on a pretty tight schedule, so your sleep habits are not something she’s particularly fond of

If you’re asleep when she wakes up to begin her day, then she’s learned not to bother trying to wake you

She’ll kiss your temple and try to find some time to spend with you at the end of the day, but she misses the quiet moments you two could share while the rest of the world starts to wake up

Overall it’s not a hassle, just something she has to adapt to

Unless of course there’s an early morning event that you’re also supposed to attend with her

Then she’s trying to figure out the most gentle way to pry you from the hands of sleep (she may quite literally drag you out of the bed and start getting you ready before you wake up)

In case you didn't know, Nadia isn't actually a wine expert. I didn't know and I was devastated when I found out.

i try to redraw her every few years to see how i’ve improved :)

reversed ending rant!!! it’s nadia time babyyy

-HOT. holy shit hot. hot devil nadia. would smash platonically. 10/10 hot scale

-okay sorry jokes aside her design in this ending is delicious. the outfit is stunning. i love love love the goatish features or whatever the correct terminology for weird goat people is, i love the hooves and the claws and the horns and the EARS bdnfjdjf. also the eyes are super cool. just overall amazing sprite amazing design im in love with the cg, we stan devil nadia

-i LOVE that nadia and mc teamed up with the hierophant to an extant, im sure there’s a reason it was him specifically but i really don’t care, as far as im concerned he’s just there because he’s cool and awesome and i love him

-also, again, this ending makes me feel very cool. working alongside the devil who is also your wife is a very edible idea and the “only mc and the guards can navigate the devils realm” thing makes me feel good about myself for some reason. why am i being flattered by a fictional situation that a fictional character is in in a fictional world

-the writing is fucking scrumptious. nadias personality is so. yes. i love how confident she is and i love the “don’t you dare die before I’ve proven myself” line

-THE IMPLICATIONS. OF NADIA AND MC LEAVING HER REALM INTO THE MORTAL REALM. i need. more. i don’t understand it enough i want to know what happened please god how doES IT ENDDD

-hot goat lady :3

Petite MC - Headcanon

Arcana Characters (Main 6) x MC

A/N: Can you believe that I wrote like 150 Arcana headcanon sets before someone asked for a petite mc? I feel like this is a classic that I missed out on in my early days. Please let me know if there are any spelling or grammar mistakes :) requests are open!

❤️Julian❤️

He was already constantly filled with anxiety and an ever looming sense of dread, but meeting you has somehow increased it

Logically he knows that your size doesn’t diminish your many talents and capabilities, but he worries all the same

He likes to keep you in his line of sight, and in crowded spaces he’ll hold your hand or place one of his hands on your back or shoulder so you don’t disappear into the fray

Often he can be seen looking behind you, a bit hunched over so he can hear what you’re saying

He likes to think he looks like a scary guard dog, but depending on the circumstances there’s a good chance he looks even more scared than you

🧡Portia🧡

You can be short legends together

She hopes you’re okay with short jokes, because now that she has a partner who’s just as short as her, she’ll be making them all the time

Says you can tag team taking out people’s ankles if they piss you off

She really likes that she doesn’t have to worry about getting on her tiptoes to kiss you since you’re about the same height

Once joked about having you sit on her shoulders with a cloak to pretend to be Muriel while committing crimes

💛Lucio💛

Loves being the taller one in the relationship, it makes him feel strong and important

He’s always been a fan of heels (the higher the better), but he does appreciate that he can give his feet a break when he’s out with you

Does try to talk you into wearing heels for special events though; he says it’s more fun to look down at people

Makes short jokes when he’s feeling petty, but they’re not very well thought out, and mostly come down to “well, you’re short, and that’s bad because I say so”

Still feels really bad about this later, and insists that you should feel insulted even if you were totally unaffected

💚Muriel💚

He may actually cry from the stress

He’s always been uncomfortable aware of his own size, and that sensation is heightened whenever you’re around

If he bumps into you, you will be going down, and he is terrified of that

He tries to make himself smaller by hunching over whenever he’s standing or sitting next to you to draw less attention to the size difference (obviously it doesn’t work, and most people just pity him since he looks so awkward)

Hates that people are perceiving him as a sort of guard dog for you; he feels like the juxtaposition is leading to stereotyping, and you’ll need to reassure him that you don’t see him that way

💙Asra💙

You know, he’s never really noticed it all that much

Of course, on a physical level he knows you’re pretty small, but as someone who has always been right in the middle of short and tall, he doesn’t really see it as a very big deal

He does like that you’re just short enough to fit under his chin when he hugs you, but that’s about it

You don’t have to reach too far to give him a kiss, which is also a plus

And he’s already got plenty of step-stools around for reaching the top shelves, so there’s no need to ask (not that anything but decorations ever goes on those shelves anyway; if neither of you can reach them on your own, why bother giving them a practical use?)

💜Nadia💜

Adjusting to your height takes a bit of getting used to for her

She’s the type to wear heels and keep perfect posture, so she stands tall even among people of a similar height

She accidentally looks over your head until you call her attention down to you pretty often

Expect to be gifted plenty of heels or platform shoes early on in the relationship

She’s not particularly fond of the idea of abandoning her own heels, but if you struggle with yours then she’ll switch to something a bit more practical so she can kiss you more easily

She complained about neck pain exactly one (1) time, and silently prays that you never bring it up again to tease her

[theintrovertbean]

Contrary to popular belief, I think Nadia is quite an obsessive partner. Like, y'all realize that she's in love with MC, right? She won't be like "eww no" when the love of her life asks her for an extra hug in the morning. Yes, she's busy with her Countess duties and she has so much stuff to do. I'm not saying she'd neglect her duties because she definitely wouldn't do that.

BUT. You can't tell me that when they're apart, she doesn't spend every moment of her day thinking about MC. She's signing some silly little papers about shrimp prices while fantasizing about cuddling and kissing them for hours. Put her in a room with literally anyone and she's gonna gush about MC at the first opportunity.

Yes, she's very dutiful. She works her ass of to make Vesuvia a better place. But she's also baby girl and a romantic. If she could choose between working or making out with MC, she'd gladly spend her whole life kissing them.

Also Nadia is hella possessive. She has to have at least a hand on MC whenever it's possible. You belong to her, got it? Anything you do makes her melt.

All this woman wants is to hold and to be held, but life often gets in the way. Please, give her all your love and affection because she craves it.

Nadia spent her entire life dreaming of this love. The entire Lost in Prakra tale proves that, hello??? Don't ignore that.

Wilmina/The Cast's Dynamics

To be clear, Wilmina's partner is Asra in this.

Asra: Not only someone she admires and loves deeply, but also someone who helps a lot with her illness- she still suffers from mild/moderate plague symptoms despite being healthy. He's very much helpful when it comes to finding whatever magic can make any flare-ups better. Also, they're so accommodating on adventures, recognizing Wilmina's love for adventure and doing their best to make sure she has fun but doesn't overextend herself.

Julian: They worked side-by-side during the plague, and he was the one to diagnose her with the plague first. This is where we steer away from the canon, because Julian actually stole Wilmina away to keep her in hiding, knowing what was happening to the other victims. After the upright ending, he does a lot of work with managing Wilmina's pain and weight issues, finding a calorie-dense diet to keep her from wasting away. Outside of office hours, they're somewhat friendly and hang out, though not as close as they were during the plague.

Nadia- Oh geez. Royalty and politics causes Wilmina a little anxiety and at first she felt really awkward talking with her. However, as Wilmina got to know Nadia better she became a lot less intimidating. Now, Wilmina may take a visit to the palace every now and again for tea or a walk in the gardens.

Muriel- Since he's friends with Asra, he's also friends with Wilmina. She tries to visit when Asra does, plus some extra... And when Asra leaves Wilmina at home and has Muriel keep an eye on her, Wilmina never hesitates to invite Muriel in, whether he wants to hang upstairs when the shop is open or stay downstairs when the shop is closed.

Portia- Portia probably was so worried at first seeing Wilmina so skinny, oh no... But, they are definitely besties. Portia actually helps Julian with the calorie-dense diet thing, by literally loading Wilmina up on baked goods and Mazelinka's soup. In return, Wilmina uses her proficiency in water magic to help water the gardens. And it's yet another excuse to wander around the gardens.

Lucio: She's highly hurt by his actions and can't begin to forgive him. Even though Bip was a gift from him when Wilmina was very young.
