#or like. a meaner way of being like “you won’t succeed with that kind of attitude” or wtv bc thats how shes been conditioned to think abt i

[aroace-poly-show]

ummm revamped showtime at 25 mafuyu thoughts. smth smth her mom was a struggling actress who gave up on it and i am debating on whether she immediately pushes mafuyu to do acting as a way of living vicariously through mafuyu’s future success or her initially not allowing mafuyu to act bc she believes its a pointless and worthless thing to pursue from her own experience but then she sees actual potential in mafuyu and the way people praise her and decides to let her act. either way bc of her past failure she really pressures mafuyu into aiming for fame and stardom and performing on big famous stages when mafuyu originally only wanted to make people smile with shows. mafuyu then loses this true passion for shows and forgets why she wanted to do them at all like her whole thing in canon. yeah

Riiii hiii could I please have the rest of the letters for Leslie if it’s okay? 💜💜

-NITL✨

ABSOLUTELY OMG??

(also, i like to keep my ducks in a row, so to have the whole alphabet under the cut i copypasted my answers from my other leslie post into this as well! sorry to make you read them twice lol)

⚠️ NSFW BELOW THE CUT ⚠️

DIRTY HEADCANONS A-Z

Alone Time Leslie is a guy with a decent imagination, and he’s easily gotten off just from a thought that was vivid enough rather than needing something to look at when he’s by himself. He spends a lot of time planning his outings, and I’d say he takes his fantasies by an almost similar approach. Lots of care, lots of research, and of course lots of preparation.

Bondage He likes it both ways, and while it does give him a boner both physically and in his heart when he’s tying an S/O up and has full control while he plays out whatever he wants, them completely submissive to it and trusting in him … he’s also a fan of being edged while not being able to do a thing about it too. That’s not something often said aloud, nor something that comes before a lot of trust has been built with said S/O, but once he’s there it’s one of his favorite things.

Also this is just me but I’d imagine he’d love a good Shibari tie, like this. (click at your own risk, it’s obviously nsfw hehehe)

Crying He would be very taken back if he fucked you good enough to make you cry, and while it doesn’t necessarily turn him on or encourage his boner/make him want to get you to cry more, he’ll think of it as a connection that’s been made. It’d be kinda funny if he didn’t know sometimes people cry during sex just because, but anyone who loved him would see his face when the first honest sob left your mouth and decide it’s best not to tell him...(at least, I wouldn’t.)

Dominance He absolutely prefers to have the upper hand, even in the bedroom. That doesn’t mean he won’t let a partner attempt to take that from him, and if they want to try and dom him, he’s going to give them a fair shot. He’ll enjoy it regardless of if they succeed or not, as he does with games like these. All I’ll say to a daring Leslie fucker is that you got to know what you’re doing, and as much as he loves you he loves to make you know just how smart he is too.

Extra Info - You’re going to be fucked around/in the orchard at least once. He’s going to ask you to keep quiet, and see how long you can go. - Despite being a tough nut to crack, once you got him submissive he’s all over you. Face in the crook of your neck, whimpering like you’re hurting him and whispering the sweetest nothings. Very talkative when he’s broken down. - Very into weapon play and leaving marks with his sickle over other methods -- whether that’s cutting, flogging with it so it leaves crescent-shaped patterns on your body, etc.

Food Play I...I don’t personally think there’s a lot of food in the bedroom, haha. Maybe like, an apple as a joke just sitting on the nightstand or something, but I’m fresh out of headcanons for this one! (I apologize and plan to make up for this one in ‘J’, lol!)

Group Sex Leslie wouldn’t be interested in adding a third person + engaging in group sex unless his partner talks him into it. He’s not opposed to the idea, but is a little shy about this type of thing and assumes he just likes having one other person. He’s got an open mind about it, and if he’s lured in by his person he’s all for it. (Poly ships with Leslie are a cute thought, ngl ;;)

Humiliation Leslie loves to verbally tease his partner, but generally keeps it lighthearted and peppered with a healthy balance of affections/kisses/etc. If you’re egging it on and giving him it back, though, he’s prone to get a little meaner or assertive with it. Like most things with challenging his upper hand, do it at your own risk!

Impact Play While Leslie isn’t jumping on the idea to slap/use a flogger/etc. out of the blue, kind of drifting more towards something more sensual or soft when left to his own accord, he’d become more inclined if he’s got someone that’s pushing his buttons. Frustrate him and he might use the flat of a blade/whatever’s in close range for him to use.

Jelly Flavored lubes pique his morbid curiosity so hard! Yes, he’d probably just straight up lick it off your finger before you two even have a chance to take it for a spin -- just so he knows what he’s gonna be in for. 😝 Also, remember that part in the movie where he was putting on that homemade face stuff and explaining how he added a flame retardant and all? He’s made his own lube at least once. Look me in the eye and tell me he wouldn’t.

Kissing He likes keeping most of his kisses around the face/neck, finding it the most standard spot but also just liking being at that level with his partner. He’s also partial to hip/V kisses, especially if his S/O is ticklish and will get a big reaction from it. As for what he likes getting kissed? The chest and the knuckles. Just little spots that not everyone gets access to all the time. When it comes to leaving mouth marks or hickeys, he’s more into doing that through weapon play/rope.

Lighting It wouldn’t be set to be the perfect session without the proper lighting, now would it? Leslie will usually take it into account along with other details: the amount of light in the place him and his squeeze are gonna be doing it, what time of day it’s going to be when he plans to strike, etc. I’d say his favorite is dim. Like, flickering candle-light dim -- or under the moonlight. Minimal lighting makes him 🥰🥰🥰

Masochism Leslie likes pain in a fashion where he can see how far he can go, I think. Not really one to take it because he likes pain, but he likes to find his threshold. As for causing pain, he finds it in the same wheelhouse as crying: It enamors him, but doesn’t make him feral per se.

Not Yet I feel like a broken record, but edging/orgasm denial is another instance of power play for him! Leslie enjoys edging as an endurance test for both him and his partner, and will definitely indulge someone who also enjoys seeing how much they can take. If they give into it and cum, though, the orgasm will be a temporary bliss before he has his fun.

Outdoor Sex If this was a checkmark box, he’d just select ‘yes’ without further explanation. He’s done it outside, he enjoys doing it outside, and when the mood strikes him he will find a way to take it outside – especially if him and his partner are getting rough with it. If you really want me to go into my headcanon on this, he has a little bit of an exhibitionism kink and the risk of getting spotted works him up more than he cares to admit. He prefers to never pass the edge and be found out, of course, but also likes to hear unsuspecting suspicion from a distance while he’s doing the do, feeling the possibility grip him by the shoulders.

Photography Oh, like this little shit wouldn’t send you nudes when he knows you’re somewhere public or doing something important. Bonus points if he decides to find you, watch from a distance as your eyes boggle and your hands fidget after playing with your phone and seeing it. He’d never ask, but if you send them back he’d cherish them. Keep them somewhere discrete on his phone and look when he’s missing you, the standard. 🥰

Quiet, Please Leslie is a fan of whispering/keeping his volume low. You can get him whining with certain actions (See: E, Z), but he tends to keep his own noises at a minimum. If anything, there’s more focus on your noises. He loves learning the intricacies of every little moan, grunt, sigh that comes from you when he does certain things. He’d sometimes play with keeping you quiet if you guys engage in the more public outings, but is mostly game for letting you express yourself. The vulnerability is a turn on!

Routine He loves to incorporate the element of surprise into his endeavors, so I’d say obvious routine is rare. He’s one of those enigmas where everything and nothing is planned all at once, so while the timing might be pulled from a hat upon first glance...you’ll lay there afterwards and realize he knew that was going to happen. I guess it boils down to how observant you are, and if the clues he may leave for you catch your eye.

Sleepy Sex (i am a somno slut so i’ll try to behave with this one) I’d say if it’s discussed or he knows you like it, Leslie would absolutely try to wake a partner up/put them to sleep with oral. He’s a dog for his partner being utterly open with him to the point where they can’t control showing themselves, letting him know they want him and will sometimes do whatever he desires to let him make them cum. It’s the hottest thing to him to see them in a half-awake state, begging or making more noise than they usually do. As for him, he’s not opposed to it at all, but prefers being woken up over falling asleep during it.

Top or Bottom I’m going to say Leslie prefers to top. He likes to be the one pulling the strings, tightening the rope, etc. Not to say he doesn’t like giving that control up -- but only if he feels it’s earned. He doesn’t sub without a fight, haha!

Underwear Leslie wears the kind of boxer briefs with little room. He thinks aerodynamics matter when he’s doing work-related stuff, and usually people are too taken back by that kind of reasoning to argue. Sounds right, I guess. As for lingerie, he’s all eyes for it on a partner (Immediate thought: Oh, you want to look special for me? 🥺) and loves to indulge them in turn if they like to see it too. Also, just a me thing I think but he looooves corset + collar combos...

Voyeurism Leslie likes to occasionally watch his partner without them knowing. It’s in his resume, after all, and while he tries not to make his sex life a spitting image of his work life he can’t help incorporating the parts about both that he finds fascinating. That includes watching, having those strange moments where the other person thinks he’s there but can’t quite be sure. He sometimes can hold off to watch you do chaste things, like change clothes or go about your day without being aware he’s got eyes on you. It riles him up, and while usually it makes him want to go for the throat he more so wants to just pepper you with kisses when it comes to a partner rather than a victim.

Water Akin to ‘F’, I’m gonna say he isn’t terribly interested in shower/underwater sex. Doesn’t strike me as the type to be about it, but I mean, if his partner wanted to get it on by a lakeside he’d run with the outdoor part of that just fine, lol!

X-Dressing When it comes to costumes, Leslie is not afraid to fuck in his slasher getup to play into his partner’s own fantasy, and sometimes his own. He also doesn’t really mind if his partner wants to see him in lingerie, and like I’ve said in ‘U’, he enjoys it on the other person too.

Yes, Master Leslie is like Lester, where he’d just nut if a partner said his name because it’s such a serious thing to him in the moment. ...It’s pet name city with this guy, though. You will never hear your name with him when he’s in the bedroom besides when he needs to get your attention back on him or he’s overwhelmed (which is rare but not impossible). Other than that, lots of sweets, cutie, hottie-with-the-body, etc... He’ll find something that fits you just fine!

Zones Adding onto ‘K’ somewhat, the chest is a big erogenous spot on Leslie. If he’s going to lose volume control at any point during the act, it’d be if he’s already halfway there and his partner starts putting their hands/mouth on his pecs (or god forbid play with his nipples). Even having an S/O sleep with their head on his chest sometimes gets him hot under the collar and a little sensitive to touching as a whole, even when it’s an otherwise chaste situation.

Favorite twst boys?

Oooohoohoo, you wish me to talk about my Night Raven College baes? Let’s see then...

Ace Trappola ~ Okay, so I should admit right off the bat that I have a huge soft spot for the Heartslabyul dorm in particular. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll are one of my favorite things ever, and so most adaptations of those works tend to give me some amount of glee, even the really flawed ones. But for Ace specifically, it took me a little while to warm up to him, given that he can be a real prat, but once he and Deuce really rallied around Yuu (especially when they dropped everything on their winter break and took the bus all the way back to school during the Scarabia incident to try to rescue them and Grim -- MY HEART!!!), I fully adopted Ace as my second trash son and that was that. I also loved Ace’s development in the Ghost Bride story line, as well as his admittedly harsh, but still rather fair tear-down of Riddle immediately pre-Overblot. Ace can be really harsh sometimes, but that also makes him an incredibly honest sort who won’t take anyone else’s bull and won’t let anyone push him around -- yet at the same time, he’s also lighthearted enough that he never takes himself too seriously. In some ways he kind of reminds me of Jounouchi Katsuya from Yu-Gi-Oh!, and that’s definitely a compliment.

Deuce Spade ~ MY ORIGINAL TRASH SON. I loved Deuce pretty much from the get-go, considering how passionate he was about trying to fix the mistake with the chandelier and how adorable he was casting the only magic he could manage (“COME FORTH, CAULDRON!” XDD). Then there was the whole “chick” incident where we not only saw his delinquent side which he tries so desperately to hide on full display for the first time, but we also got to see how much he truly loves his mom and how friggin’ stupid and yet absolutely sincere he is, and I just fell in love with Deuce even more. The Wish Upon a Star event where we learn Deuce wants to basically be this world’s equivalent of a sheriff after having been such a delinquent in his younger years only made me feel all the more for this guy -- him wanting to be so much better than he was even if he’s not the smartest, strongest, or most talented guy around I find so compelling and likable.

Riddle Rosehearts ~ Yeah, I know, a lot of Heartslabyul love, but like with Ace, it took me a LONG while to warm up to Riddle. I thought he was a total jerk and I wanted nothing more than to give him a good telling-off (“go ahead, use that stupid collar on me -- I don’t have magic for you to block, you bullying prat!”) until Ace got around to punching Riddle in the face and then tearing him a verbal new one for me. It honestly took Riddle’s Overblotting for me to feel the least bit sorry for him, but it was how sincerely he acted after the fact in trying to make up for his mistakes that really softened my heart to him. Riddle has lived his whole life following rules and convention to the letter, and it’s made him miserable, so now that he’s come to grips with the fact that he doesn’t need to be miserable in order to live an upstanding life, he’s softened a bit. Even with this, though, that rule-abiding, upstanding attitude isn’t always hard to shake, and I think it makes for a much more balanced outcome than if Riddle just went hog-wild and stopped caring about everything -- because the whole reason Riddle followed the rules so closely is he wanted to do what was best for all and to be the best he could be, too. His motivation for being so strict came from a deep passion for leadership and order, and I’m glad that passion of Riddle’s wasn’t dampened, but instead given nuance. Now he can focus his passion more effectively, rather than lashing out in all directions indiscriminately. Like Ace as well, I loved Riddle’s development in the Ghost Marriage plot line, particularly his individual side story with Malleus. It really showcased Riddle’s noblesse oblige moral code, which I personally find the most compelling and likable aspect of his personality.

Jack Howl ~ JACK IS A GOOD BOY. Anyone who disagrees can fight me. (LOL, not really, but...) Like with Deuce, I liked Jack pretty much immediately. From the start, he just came across as so much more down-to-earth and honest than either of the other two main characters from Savanaclaw (even if Jack is also a total tsundere, but honestly, if you’ve watched any kind of anime, you’re fluent enough in “tsundere” as a language to know exactly what Jack really thinks of something). He was sort of depicted as a black sheep in his own dorm, and -- honestly? -- I’m a sucker for characters that are sort of on the fringes and don’t quite conform to what people expect them to be. Add to that how passionate Jack is about working hard and being the best he can be in his own right, as well as how deathly loyal he is, and he’s just overall a character I would love being friends with.

Jamil Viper ~ Jamil was the first character who Overblots who I actually felt sympathy for long before we see his side of the story in flashback form. Part of this admittedly is because I could sort of see where Jamil and Kalim’s story was going ahead of time, but the other reason is that I could see how much work Jamil put in all the time. Even though yeah, it was a real dick move to try to foist out Kalim so he could become Head of Scarabia instead, and yes, he manipulated things to make everyone see Kalim as cruel and irrational, it doesn’t change the fact that Jamil still acted like a Dorm Head a lot more than Kalim did a lot of the time, in the sense of making sure things run smoothly. Kalim definitely brings amazing enthusiasm to Scarabia as its leader and inspires a lot of positive feelings in the people around him, but if there’s a problem, it’s Jamil who often ends up fixing it, not Kalim. And from the start, I really felt for this guy who Kalim -- simply due to privilege -- didn’t seem to acknowledge he was demanding so much of, without receiving the same kind of attention and appreciation in return. I never disliked Kalim for this, because I could tell Kalim didn’t mean it maliciously and admittedly Jamil really should’ve said something since Kalim adores Jamil and would have likely been more than receptive to hearing what he had to say...but at the same time, given their power imbalance, it’s also not completely unsurprising that Jamil didn’t feel like he could say something. The best part about Jamil for me, at least, ended up coming out after he was allowed to finally speak his mind. Yeah, maybe he’s a little meaner now. Yeah, maybe he’s not so patient or amiable now. But he’s also allowed to show more of that deep, searing passion and ambition he’s been bottling up for so long. I loved seeing how much he enjoys dancing and performing through the Fairy Gala event and the recent Pomefiore chapter. I’ve loved how thoroughly (and pretty justifiably) distrustful he is of Azul. I’ve loved how he’s sort of on the fence emotionally about looking after Kalim the way he used to and making sure Kalim doesn’t expect his service the way he subconsciously did before. Jamil is one of the TWST characters who surprised me the most in how much I enjoy him, and I honestly can’t wait to see how much more he grows.

Epel Felmier ~ I WILL PROTECT THIS BOY, OKAY. Not because he’s delicate-looking, but because damn it, if he wants to eat macaroons and steak with the wrong fork, then he should be allowed to just go out and do it. I absolutely love the contrasts we’ve already seen in Epel so far. For as sweet and bishounen as his face is, he has a real rough, informal side fitting his background as a kid from the country, and yet he also has his “Prince Charming” moments too. He completely on his own comes up with the idea to arrive riding a horse when trying to impress the Bride during the Ghost Marriage event, and yet he’ll also tear into a bunch of ghosts who dare mistake him for a girl. Epel reminds me of a friend of mine from high school who also was a lot gruffer and more cynical than his short height and cute face would suggest, and it makes for a very interesting character, I think. You can’t pin this kid down or put him in a single box, and I think that’s awesome.

Vil Schoenheit ~ All right. Before the Pomefiore chapter, I thought there was no way in Hell that I would ever warm up to Vil. His slapping of people’s butts in the Fairy Gala event, his superficial focus on exterior beauty, and his bullying, condescending attitude toward Epel in particular really made me dislike him from the get-go. But then the Pomefiore chapter started and we reached the auditions...and I found myself agreeing with just about every critique he made, in contrast to Rook’s sunnier, fawning reviews. It made me feel like I was watching American Idol or America’s Got Talent and agreeing with Simon Cowell (which I honestly almost always did, whenever I watched those!). And as the Pomefiore chapter’s unfolded, I’ve seen that fascinating contrast in Vil. Yes, he’s very superficial -- but his dream is to act and be an idol, and in that world of celebrity, appearances are important. Yes, he’s very conceited -- but he’s also an incredibly hard worker who’s put in a lot of effort to improve himself and his talents to the point that he should be proud of them. Yes, he’s almost cruel in how relentlessly he pushes people -- but he never holds anyone to a standard he wouldn’t also expect of himself. Yes, he’s very forceful and sees his way as the only way -- but he does truly want those people to succeed in his own weird way, even if he can’t properly express it. Not to mention the fact that he’s constantly typecast as villainous characters, and he just wants to be a hero who makes it to the final curtain call!! My heart!! It’s made it so that like with Jamil, I’ve found sympathy for Vil long before he Overblots, and so I’m all the more eager to see how both the Overblot itself and its aftermath impacts Vil as a character and his relationships with the other characters.

Malleus Draconia ~ Oh, come on, who doesn’t love Tsunotaro? This precious child needs all of the love and party invitations in the world! (And yes, he may be an immortal fae, but he’s still a precious child to me, so there.) I would totally love chatting about gargoyles and grotesques with him. X3

8. Do you genuinely want your muse to be happy? What do you think would make them most happy in life?

//Fred? Yeah. I want him to suffer for it, work for it... but in the end, I want that kid to have some kind of happiness. What I think he needs is a romantic partner he trusts and is flexible with his needs and some kind of purpose, even if it is just being a Rocket grunt. Like, give that kid a job he’s good at, but won’t mentally scar him any more. And give him some closure on the things about him he perceives as flaws but are actually just... traits.Ted? ... Harder to answer. Kinda of yes and no. I want him to be happier, but I’m not sure he deserves true happiness. I know he struggles to find happiness in everyday life, and what he thinks would make him happy would only make him meaner, since most of his dreams are just power trips. I guess I want him to succeed, become a better scientist, and progress up the ladder, albeit with some hitches that are entirely his fault. I want him to bury the hatchet with Fred and work out better ways to have friends. But I don’t think it would be fair to say I want all of Ted’s dreams to come true, and a Good Ending where he and Fred are dating and he’s Boss of Team Science, and he has one hundred pet snakes and his Dad is proud of him. It’s just not realistic. More to the point, he doesn’t deserve it. Bad and naughty children get put in the OC wiggler.

13. What about your muse makes you sad?

// Let’s start with the easier one. Fred is sort of an extension of me in some ways. Like, a lot of his flaws are directly from me. His awkwardness, his stay-at-home attitude, his struggle to DO things. Like, there is a lot of me in there. So, from an empathy point of view, that gets me a bit sad :( Plus... the whole being manipulated by his only friend thing really stings too, I guess. But SOOOO much makes me, genuinely, truly upset about Ted. Like, man... Imagine having a personality so defensive, so isolating that you’re basically destined to scare off all potential friends and spend the entirety of your life alone. I’m not for a minute saying he doesn’t deserve it, but fuck. That makes me sad. Because I know it makes him sad. It would make anyone sad to be so isolated, and it must be even worse to not know why, when the answer is apparently so obvious to everyone else. How much it must injure his pride, as an intelligent person, not to be in on this. Again, all totally deserved, but I guess the thing that really get to me is that??? Real??? People? Have NPD. And I get sad about my freakin’ head-son. How must it be for them? Like? Heck man, that really upsets me. 

15. Would you like your muse as a person if you met them in real life?

//Fred I can really imagine as one of those friends I keep at arms length. I like ‘em, I find ‘em funny, but I don’t wanna get too close, because I kinda know they’re a bit of a train wreck and they say some really silly stuff sometimes. But I know I’d like him. He’s supposed to be a sweetie pie, after all.And No. No, I would not like Ted if I met him. I’ve met people like Ted, and I pitied them, but damn did I not like them. He’s literally horrible. Which just so happens to be my favourite kind of fictional character. But be under no illusion that I’d like him irl. No way.
