#saionji ukyo fluff

[junosmindpalace]

Hi, loved your last dcst headcanons, so here's another idea.

We all know that they the team travelled by ship the most. Well, how about a modern AU, characters (Ryusui, Senku, Tsukasa, Ukyo, any others you like) taking their s/o /friend on a trip?

Like, method of transport, why would they decide to do it, what will they do at the destination. If that's not too specific, of course.

hi there! thank you for your request! i love imagining the dcst characters pre petrification in modern era  !!

SENKU:

When Senku suggests trips, they can be mostly last minute and pretty unexpected.

He’s mostly hush hush about all the details as he plans it, which is evident when Taiju found out last minute about his plans to go to Africa. 

It’s almost the same for you, but with a little bit more of a heads up so he knows how to prepare. 

Nevertheless you’re still caught off guard when he randomly suggests or asks if you’d want to come on a trip somewhere with him, usually motivated by an experiment or scientific curiosity. 

As for the destination, I think it depends. We know he’s not below just keeping his locations to some place locally. Dude is traveling all over the world on impulse.

So you’re really trying your best to predict whether or not you’ll be flying over to the next continent or taking a train ride when Senku suggests a trip. 

Method of transportation also depends on the destination. Again, if it’s somewhere faaaar far, plane is the way to go. If it’s within the country, however, you’ll mostly likely be taking some trains. 

The destination itself, no matter what it is, is also something that will always leave you surprised. Whether it’s some remote place or a museum or whatever it is that is the source of Senku’s curiosity, most of the time Senku is going with a clear idea of what information he wants to get. So he’s primarily focused on that.

But he encourages you to find amusement for yourself, too, and would absolutely love it if you helped him with his research. 

RYUSUI: 

Hou boy, where even to begin with Ryusui and travel. 

Method of transportation is obviously the first thing I have to talk about; you’ll be traveling first class, absolutely luxuriously, no matter where it is you’re going. Could be a ten minute trip into some place locally and you’ll still be getting the best accommodations money can buy.

Whether it be on a plane, train, or bus, or one of the Nanamis’ personal jets and helicopters and what not, you’ll be smooth sailing (literally and figuratively) the entire way. Ryusui might also be pretty eager to take you on his ship once it finishes, so be prepared for some eager talking and insistence to come along with him, and even more eager captaining. 

The destination itself, similarly to Senku, can be pretty spontaneous, or at least it seems that way to a lot of people. He’s quite used to suddenly springing up trips he wants to take; he probably has the means to up and leave whenever he wants. 

But no matter what it is, he always encourages you to tag along with him with a boisterous laugh or a solemn expression, depending on the goal of his visit. No matter what, he loves commanding his ship and showing you all the fascinating things he’s learned about them in the time he dedicated himself to its art. 

Again, similarly to Senku, the trips are often motivated by a sudden desire to do, see, or obtain something that he isn’t able to with his own two eyes or hands within the country. And as Ryusui wants to act on his desires as soon as possible, most of the time he gives staff a day to prepare pilots and vehicles. It’s also time he gives you to consider his offer of tagging along. 

Seems a bit unfair, but Ryusui always brings you back in one piece! And you may also find some fun in his eagerness to include you in his activities.

TSUKASA: 

Probably the most normal when it comes to traveling. As in there aren’t any insane locations or high end accommodations. 

The most frequent kind of travel Tsukasa generally does (or suggests for you to tag along on) is to the hospital where Mirai resides, or to MMA fights and related interviews. He probably trusts you enough to see those vulnerable parts of him, and it may also contribute to some sort of comfort he feels when he gets lost in his head and heart full of hard feelings and thoughts. Having someone he cares about just standing by the corner and giving him a small smile helps ground him and offer a small smile back. 

That doesn’t mean trips are limited to these occasions, however. Most other trips would be dates; nothing too high end, but still fun and heartfelt events that pop up locally. And of course, if there’s a specific place you’d like to visit, Tsukasa is more than happy to come along no matter what it is. 

Unless you receive accommodations for interviews and scheduled fights, most of the time the two of you will either be taking the train, driving, or walking, depending on where it is you’re going. Tsukasa loves walking through parks and beaches with you the most. 

UKYO:

Don’t know how much time he’d have for traveling, generally speaking in terms of his work, so they might be sparse/few and far in between. 

But just like Tsukasa, trips would probably be more casual and planned out a little more compared to Senku and Ryusui’s seemingly impulsive and loosely structured trips to wherever for whatever. 

Ukyo probably intentionally plans bigger trips like day outs or overnight trips around the available time he has off from work. He looks forward to getting to spend some time with you doing something fun and interesting. 

He would probably want to plan the destinations alongside you, too. The itinerary is carefully compiled together, but not too rigid as to cause stress. They’re usually anywhere and everywhere; cafes and restaurants never before visited, parks and scenic routes, and perhaps some stores in between. He’s more than happy to tag along to anywhere you want to go. 

Mode of transportation also depends on where you’re going, but like Tsukasa, the most frequent modes of transport are driving, by train, or by walking. Though he hates getting stuck in traffic jams, so public transport and walking are usually his go-to’s.

No matter where it is, though, Ukyo is just happy to spend some time with you, especially if your separate responsibilities have been keeping you apart.

DrStone Incorrect quotes#9 Outta the two you made one cry guess who-

Ukyo, watching Tsukasa and Hyoga fight each other...more personally this time than most times* Are you sure they should be fighting? What if they get hurt?

Yuu, not bothered by the chaos: It’s fine, They’re too evenly matched to hurt each other fully

Ukyo: Then... who’s the strongest out of you three?

Tsukasa: Y/n

Hyoga: Y/n

Y/n: Me

@myreygn,

“Ukyo, care for a magic trick?” Gen asked out of the blue one afternoon, hands tucked away in his sleeves as he smiled at the older man.

“....What?” Ukyo blinked, half out of drowsiness from the early morning and half from confusion. That was usually a question reserved for the younger kids or Chrome. It was weird hearing it directed at him. “Why?”

“Why not? Don’t tell me you don’t believe.” Gen waggled his brows, his smile never dropping. “Besides, you're the best person for testing it.”

Ah. He understood now. “If you need a volunteer for your magic, why didn’t you say so?” Stretching his arms out, he followed the mentalist away from the village, entering a small clearing near the edge of the forest. Once there, he folded his arms across his chest, rocking on his heels as he waited. “Kay, now what?”

“Patience, magic takes time.” Gen flapped his hands, shaking his sleeves out of the way. He raised both hands, showing the front and back. “As you can see- there’s nothing here.” He nodded before stepping forward, suddenly very close to the taller man. “Now…what’s that behind your ear?”

“That old trick? Gen, I’ve seen you do it a hundred times-” Ukyo was about to point out how it was a favorite among the children when he was cut off suddenly as Gen’s fingers wiggled, making him duck down with a choked yelp. “G-Gen!”

“Hmm…wait, hold on- I lost it.” Gen reached further up, pressing into the sensitive spots behind the lobes. “It was here just a second ago.”

“Lohohohohoohohost whahahhahaht, yhohoohhoohohur mihihihihihind?” Ukyo scrunched further, cheeks starting to pink from how much he was giggling. He reached out to grab Gen’s wrist, pushing gently. “Stahhahahhap thahhahahaht! I’m noohohohohot a khiihihihihihd!”

“Hmm..was it this ear or…” Gen alternated which side he pressed, wiggling a finger behind both ears. “Maybe it was here?” He ran a hand back further so he could get Ukyo’s neck. “I might have dropped it down your collar?”

“Aheheheheheheh-EhehheHE!” Ukyo all but collapsed on his knees when Gen lightly scratched his shoulder blades, scrunching the best he could as his neck and ears were once again attacked. “Geheehheehehehehehn, whahahahhahahahait!” 

“Hmm…not here, not there…” Gen danced around him before sliding fingers into Ukyo’s armpits, making him arch with a squeal. “Hmm, maybe it’s here!”

“GEHHEHEHEHEN! AHEHAHAHHAHAHAHAA!” Ukyo cried, cheeks bright red and eyes watery with mirth. He squirmed this way and that, flailing about before falling over completely. He tried to push up and get away, but the mentalist had taken a seat on his back, fingers drilling into his armpits and upper ribs with reckless abandon. “PLEAHHAHAHSE IT TIIIHIHIHIHICKLES!”

“Does it now?” Gen grinned, laughing softly as he finally came to an end. “Oh, look what I found!” With a flick of his wrist, he brought his hand around and showed Ukyo a delicate white flower. “Stashed behind your ear this entire time! Thanks for letting me use you for practice, Ukyo!.”

“Heh…hehe…” Ukyo was too tired to question it, giving a tired thumbs up before face planting against the dirt.

Gen’s delighted cackles were quick to fill the area soon after.

Thanks for reading!

Perfectly Unromantic

Pairing: Ishigami Senkuu/Saionji Ukyou

Genre/s: Canon Universe, Fluff, Romance

Summary:

Sometimes, Ukyo finds himself playing out a scenario in his head where he confesses, and everytime he does, it only ends in similar ways—where Senkuu tells him to quit it, or jokingly say it's gross, or say that it's troublesome so he should quit it. (At least, those are all things Ukyo's heard Senkuu actually do before.)

Ukyo is too big of a coward to try finding out if it really will end up that way. At this point, he'd rather stay a coward than be rejected.

[eempxth]

Ukyo Saionji x reader

When Ukyo first met you, he shrugged off how he thought you were cute. You gave him a bright smile, giving the same smile to the other new members of the Science Kingdom. 

After that, ever since he was injured at the fight between Tsukasa and Senku, he would always end up staring at you, mesmerized. The way you laid him down gently, the way you were patient with him everytime he groaned at the pain, whispering assurances that everything would be fine. You treated him with care, and bandaged him gently, and he was in a trance. He only snapped out of it when you asked, “They are in trouble. Could you help them, just a bit?”

After his newfound admiration for you, he slowly got up, and went back to the fight. But before he could take one step away, you grabbed his hand, which gave him happy tingles all over. “Take care of yourself, Ukyo.”

Since then, he would always get warm whenever you were around. He wasn’t dumb, he knew what it was, but he didn’t want to admit it yet. He reasoned with himself, ‘I’m just observing her ways of medicine and simple first aid, you would never know who needs it in the future.’ Yet even when you were doing things completely different from treating injured or performing first aid, he would pick up your small traits. He would see your bouncing knee as you sat down, anxious that you might have not treated them properly. 

Even if he couldn’t keep his eyes on you, he would listen for you. He quickly realized it was a hobby of yours to sing. He would hear you humming the old songs from the modern age that you still remembered. It was a way for you to stay awake during all of those years of petrification, he realized. In one way or another, by hearing you hum those songs, he remembered music from the modern age too. You would sing a variety of songs when no one was around you.

When he asked you, you replied, “I love music. I couldn’t live without it. Besides medicine, I could play a number of instruments.  Though since this stone world doesn’t have music, I have to sing them to myself just to not forget.”

He approached Senku after that, consulting him about music.

“Hey Senku, is there a way for us to record some music or songs? Like what your father did?”

Senku grinned. “We could. It would take a lot of manpower to make a recorder. We skipped a lot of years through science.”

Ukyo nodded solemnly. Senku suddenly nudged him with his elbow and snickered.  “Oh, what’s this about? Is it for someone?” 

Ukyo turned away, before Senku could see his slightly red face. He walked away, without any response to the said question. The things he would do for you….

He smiled to himself.

He liked you. 

—-------------------------------

He kept his crush on you a secret, and did his chores and patrolling as usual. But he could hear your singing lessen throughout the week, and he became genuinely concerned for you, as he could the chopping, scraping, and whatever sounds you could make with wood around you. 

When everyone would get called for breakfast, he could see deep eyebags, obviously from you staying up all night, doing whatever you were doing. That only increased his worry even more.

But then you began talking to Senku and Nikki more. He tried thinking of similarities between the two, but he couldn’t think of anything. You looked so excited and happy, he didn’t want to interfere with your happiness.

Oh boy, he was in for a surprise. 

After two grueling weeks of worrying about you, Senku called everyone over at night, after everyone ate a delicious dinner of ramen. He rarely ever hears Senku call for everyone, so this must be serious. 

That was false. As soon as he saw Nikki standing beside you, with both of your faces lighting up, he sensed your happiness would go through the roof tonight. He let it be, and listened to Senku beginning to speak. 

“Uhhh, hello everyone, you dunderheads might be wondering why I called you all over tonight. We-” He was cut off by your squeals of joy, and everyone’s heads turned to you.

Senku snickered, “Fine, you explain.”

You grinned, and turned to the group. “We made instruments!” 

The brutes, the scientists, the engineers, the combat fighters, all cheered.

Nikki spoke up. “You all love Taylor Swift, right? Because I do. So much. And Y/N here is going to play some songs for us.” 

The villagers had a comical question mark above their heads, except for Ruri, who cheered too. “I heard about her in the tales from our ancestors! She was a great pop singer in their time!” That caused the villagers to cheer too.

“I remember most of them, but I’m not sure about the others. Make sure to correct me, alright? We don't exactly have electric guitars or proper drums, but this was the best I could do!”

You then sat down, with Nikki beside you, holding drums, and you brought out a real guitar with real strings.

“I’m going to sing All too well first, alright? This is the 10 minute version.”

The group cheered so loud, Ukyo thought his eardrums were going to burst. But nevermind them, he too, missed Taylor Swift’s songs.

| start playing all too well now, you’re welcome to sing along, make it even more realistic, to feel the moment yk |

You strung the first few chords of the intro, and everyone quieted.

I walked through the door with you, the air was cold

But something 'bout it felt like home somehow

And I left my scarf there at your sister's house

And you've still got it in your drawer, even now

‘Wow. Just from the start, your voice was so relaxing.’ Ukyo thought.

Oh, your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze

We're singing in the car, getting lost upstate

Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place

And I can picture it after all these days

And I know it's long gone and

That magic's not here no more

And I might be okay, but I'm not fine at all

Oh, oh, oh

'Cause there we are again on that little town street

You almost ran the red 'cause you were lookin' over at me

Wind in my hair, I was there

I remember it all too well

Photo album on the counter, your cheeks were turning red

You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin-sized bed

And your mother's telling stories 'bout you on the tee-ball team

You told me 'bout your past, thinking your future was me

And you were tossing me the car keys, "Fuck the patriarchy"

Key chain on the ground, we were always skipping town

And I was thinking on the drive down, any time now

He's gonna say it's love, you never called it what it was

'Til we were dead and gone and buried

Check the pulse and come back swearing it's the same

After three months in the grave

And then you wondered where it went to as I reached for you

But all I felt was shame and you held my lifeless frame

And I know it's long gone and

There was nothing else I could do

And I forget about you long enough

To forget why I needed to

'Cause there we are again in the middle of the night

We're dancing 'round the kitchen in the refrigerator light

 Down the stairs, I was there

I remember it all too well

And there we are again when nobody had to know

You kept me like a secret, but I kept you like an oath

Sacred prayer and we'd swear

To remember it all too well, yeah

 Ukyo heard Yuzuriha whisper to the others, “This part is so magical.” They got even more absorbed in you. He smiled. He was looking forward to hearing how you would sing it.

 Well, maybe we got lost in translation

Maybe I asked for too much

But maybe this thing was a masterpiece

'Til you tore it all up

Running scared, I was there

I remember it all too well

And you call me up again just to break me like a promise

So casually cruel in the name of being honest

I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here

'Cause I remember it all, all, all

 Ukyo’s jaw dropped. Could you get any more amazing?

 They say all's well that ends well, but I'm in a new Hell

Every time you double-cross my mind

 You said if we had been closer in age maybe it would have been fine

And that made me want to die

The idea you had of me, who was she?

A never-needy, ever-lovely jewel whose shine reflects on you

Not weeping in a party bathroom

Some actress asking me what happened, you

 That's what happened, you

You who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes

Sipping coffee like you're on a late-night show

 But then he watched me watch the front door all night, willing you to come

And he said, "It's supposed to be fun turning twenty-one"

  Time won't fly, it's like I'm paralyzed by it

I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it

 After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own

Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone

But you keep my old scarf from that very first week

'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me

You can't get rid of it

'Cause you remember it all too well, yeah

 'Cause there we are again when I loved you so

Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known

It was rare, I was there

I remember it all too well

Wind in my hair, you were there

You remember it all

Down the stairs, you were there

You remember it all

It was rare, I was there

I remember it all too well

 And I was never good at telling jokes, but the punch line goes

"I'll get older, but your lovers stay my age"

 From when your Brooklyn broke my skin and bones

I'm a soldier who's returning half her weight

 And did the twin flame bruise paint you blue?

 Just between us, did the love affair maim you, too?

'Cause in this city's barren cold

I still remember the first fall of snow

And how it glistened as it fell

I remember it all too well

 Just between us, did the love affair maim you all too well?

Just between us, do you remember it all too well?

Just between us, I remember it (Just between us), all too well

 As your strums began t slow and outro slowly died down, everyone didn’t make a sound. Everyone’s jaws hung open, including Ukyo’s. I guess that’s the effect of not hearing this song in 3,000 years. He fell more deeply in love with you. After a minute, you just sat there, scared they didn’t like your voice, or your playing of the guitar. 

 But then everyone started clapping, shouting. 

 “That was awesome!”

“Your voice was so calming, Y/N!”

“Do it again!”

“I miss the old times!”

 You chuckled, happy that you made everyone happier. 

 But you made one person the happiest. 

Ukyo.

He loved you now.

 Yeah, he did.

Hello, this is my first blog, I hope you all liked it, thanks !

romantic; fluff

[ asking out through archery !!! , ukyo is somewhat ooc idk , he's also an ass in here (he apologises dw) , some archery-related words; quiver = the bag where u put arrows, pinhole = the most center on archery target round thgy ]

requested from wattpad

dr stone masterlist | main masterlist

it's the end of your usual training session with ukyo. you had asked for his assistance in archery since you thought it would definitely be a benefit for the science kingdom to have not one, but two archers. initially you wanted to learn fighting hands-on from kohaku but seeing as she's already got two students in her hands, you low-key felt guilty and opted for archery instead.

at first, ukyo was just a mere acquintance for you. but perhaps months of lessons with just the two of you had made you catch feelings for the green-eyed guy somewhere along the line.

while you remain professional about it, ukyo had been the complete opposite. ah yes, he caught on. it's ukyo after all. you've been ignoring his advances because it's not like he blatantly flirts with you out in the open or anything like that. he only does these when it's you and him. just, a touch here and there. a little wink here and there. but this? oh, you hate this move the most.

leaning his back against a tree, he smiles deviously, "leaving already? you still need to practice more you know". you let out a scoff, holding yourself back from rolling your eyes as you adjust your quiver and attempt to walk pass him when he once again opens that annoying mouth, "you did get high scores but it was a little unconsistent than yesterday's". ukyo and the bullshit he spews. you don't resist the urge to eye roll this time as you whip your body back and march straight towards him. throwing caution off the wind, you let the words roll off your tongue,

"you just want to spend more time with me don't you?"

ukyo doesn't flinch at your outburst, simply looking at you and you almost feel the regret forming at the pit of your stomach. almost, before he breaks the silence,

"and what's so wrong with that?"

and with the way ukyo is staring at you, you're sure you're hearing sirens somewhere in your head. still, he definitely needs a lesson so you reply with a sigh instead, "but you can't do that. i've worked hard today and did well. you can't just add extra hours for personal reasons, however smooth that was. instead, just ask me out like a normal person if you want to so much". he lightly nods, his head ducked a little afterwards and you're about to get closer to check if he's okay when he abruptly shoots his head up, startling you in the process. he waits a while for you to calm down and then he speaks, "i'm sorry, you're right. but asking away just like that won't be fun so...", he continues when you prompt him to,

"if i hit the pinhole, would you date me?"

"but you always hit them?",

you furrow your eyebrows at him and ukyo's lips turns into a smirk. 

oh. oh.

"yeah- yes. i'd go out with you if you can do that", it came out in a mutter and you want to knock your head for it, how embarassing.. ukyo pays little mind to it though, pushing himself from the bark and immediately searching for the nearest target. when he does, he calls for you and points at it. he starts fixing his stance once you approach his side, hands swiftly moving to his bow and arrow just as he did hundreds of times before. you intently watch the arrow head and your gaze slides to his face when you notice that he purposely pauses his shoot.

throwing you a wink, ukyo mouths a "for you" and that's when you hear the swoosh.

if it hadn't been for you being so flustered, you would have notice that his arrow had indeed pierce through the pinhole. not like you need to check anyway. since ukyo gives your clothing a little tug and a nod towards the village, "now let's go, girlfriend"

Tooth rotting fluff of ukryu in the modern cafe au 👉👈 make both of us happy. Idc if you write something out or do hcs we just need a liddle love

I did my best to make it properly cute, but I honestly struggle to tell if something is truly cute to anyone but me. This little scenario was inspired partially by a story by, I believe, IAmStoryteller on archive of our own, all respect to them for this idea!

Ukyo's plan after the military had been to settle down and live a quiet, stress-free life, so he found himself a quaint cafe to work at in a quiet part of town. It was a dream job for him, not super busy most of the time, lovely bosses, and the rowdiest coworker he had was a girl in university who had a habit of singing her heart out to Lillian almost as soon as he left at the end of his shift and she was alone. The only other nuisance Ukyo found was a specific customer. Ryusui Nanami, of the Nanami conglomerate.

Ryusui was known for being a loud, abrasive, slightly out-of-touch rich kid who seemed to have no idea about honest struggles, so the radar technician didn't exactly start off liking him. However, the millionaire was swift to set his sights on the shorter man and was determined to disrupt his peaceful life with his well-off chaos. At first, Ukyo thought he'd get the hint that this hairbrained scheme of his wasn't going to work, but Ryusui was as stubborn as a mule and was shockingly charming and accommodating, which was Ukyo's one weakness when coupled with how attractive the heir to the Nanami conglomerate was.

He was just as loud as the cafe worker had thought he'd be, but when Ukyo explained how sensitive his hearing was, he actually toned it down, and sometimes would even go so far as to use sign language if it was one of the cafe's rare busy days and the place was already roaring with noise. With that, and some other charming things he'd done, the pretty rich boy had managed to finally win Ukyo over, and so, their relationship started.

It'd now only been two months at most since Ukyo had been lured into dating him, but he'd already been tossed from Ryusui's bedroom window like a child's bag of soccer equipment, which is why they now mostly spent the night together on his ship, harassed by Minami for answers to her questions about their rumored relationship, and subjected to sugar baby jokes by customers who assumed correctly that he and the blonde were an item despite them not being public thanks to Ryusui's parents being hellbent on his sexuality staying under wraps.

Though Ukyo had to admit, it wasn't that bad despite Ryusui's family life being...strange, and the few times the well-off man forgot his boundaries about noise. Despite his mask of being obnoxiously out of touch with reality though, Ryusui was honestly one of the most compassionate people Ukyo'd met in a long while.        "It's all an act, Uky," he'd admitted to the snowy-haired sonar-tech on their third date, "It's easier for me to just be the person everyone expects me to be than to fight it to try and convince them I've changed," he explained, taking a bite of the Alfredo Francois had made them for the date,        "Well, you realize you don't have to fake it around me, right? I think I would've left by now if I wasn't willing to accept you not being as awful as people say you are." the other man hummed, and Ryu looked at him, somewhat measuring his honesty before swallowing his mouthful and nodding. Ever since then, Ryusui had been much more open and relaxed around Ukyo. Even when he came by the cafe he worked at, Ryusui still came off as a more honest version of himself, not as snobby or pushy, just purely excitable, like a puppy dog.

The memory made Ukyo smile a bit, so he rolled over in the small bed he and the blonde currently laid in on Ryusui's boat to snake his arm around him as the sea swayed and rocked them gently,         "Whatcha up to, pretty boy?" the millionaire hummed, looking down at the smaller male who was cuddling up to him now, "I'm just being affectionate." he hummed, making the man snort, but he didn't deny him the cuddles, just putting his arm around him loosely and returning to watching his phone.

For a while, Ukyo just cuddled up to Ryusui and was comfortable until his phone buzzed and his alarm for work went off.         "I thought you didn't work today," the millionaire huffed, tightening his hold on the smaller male while he squirmed to get to his phone,        "I don't, but one of the workers had an exam today, so I offered to take her shift," Ukyo explained, stretching himself and trying to take advantage of how the gentle rocking of the ocean sometimes scooted his phone just a bit closer until he could finally grab it. So, the problem of the alarm was solved, but now he had to pry himself away from his boyfriend.        "Ryusui," he sighed, turning his head to look back at the noisy blonde as best he could with said blonde nuzzled into his neck, "Let go now, I need to get to work." All he got was a muffled 'nuh-uh'.

With a small sigh, the snow-haired veteran began wriggling and writhing and lighting smacking at Ryusui when he tightened his hold too much until finally he managed to win his freedom and scramble to his feet. In response, his boyfriend sighed dramatically, rolling onto his back and acting as if losing his small cuddle buddy was the end of the world for a moment, then he finally sat up and helped Ukyo gather his things. After that, he didn't actually complain or pout as he simply drove Ukyo closer to the cafe he worked at, but he did get revenge.

Just as the radar technician was getting out of the car and gathering his things, Ryusui came over to his side of the car and struck like a waiting, publicly affectionate snake, hugging him, littering his face with kisses, knowing very well how much PDA embarrassed the shorter man.        "I swear to god, Ryusui stop it! This is humiliating!" he whined, trying to contort himself to avoid the onslaught of kisses, but with the sailor being around 6'2 and as stubbornly strong as he was, Ukyo had no choice but to bear the act until he was finally released, his boyfriend satisfied with the vibrant red of his cheeks.         "Have a good day at work~" He sang, returning to the driver's side of the car, acting as if his partner wasn't glaring daggers at him. Afterward, Ukyo just shook his head and huffed, but went to the cafe, not really as mad as he acted.

heya, Dr. Stone headcanons of the Wise Generals' (all or any ones you prefer) sleeping habits? Pretty please🥺

i’m sooo indecisive when it comes to headcanons i just end up talking about every perspective! but i hope these are fun! sorry some of these are shorter than others </3 i had more ideas for ryusui and senku

-> SENKU:

I’m pretty sure it was shown or implied very briefly in the show, but I believe Senku is a kind of person who sleeps pretty neatly.

Maybe not like a vampire on his back with his hands crossed over his stomach, but he mostly keeps to himself; his limbs aren’t usually all over the place, and he’s probably just curled within himself on his side. 

I don’t think it’s impossible for him to splay all over, but usually he’s a pretty still sleeper. Maybe he shifts around a little, a stray arm or leg here and there, and unless it’s super hot or cold or he’s unnerved by something, he’ll mostly just stay curled within himself. 

I think it was also shown that he tends to stay up pretty late doing science related things, so maybe a little bit of a night owl, too. 

Has at least once or twice pulled an all nighter doing science related things. Sometimes he isn’t even aware of the time, and he ends up accidentally staying awake all night (which he feels the effects of full force in the morning when he has school). 

It also seems like when he’s nervous about something, he can’t rest easily, either. So most of the time he should be spending sleeping is instead used for problem solving. 

He knows that, logically, he should be investing time and effort into developing and upholding a more than adequate sleep schedule in order for him to function and continue on with his hobbies at 100%. Buuut…he’s an eager person, and, for a lot of the series, a teenager. So his sleep schedule is probably a little all over the place. 

He’s probably out sometime between 12-2am on average though; that’s typically when he starts yawning and his body starts feeling heavy. 

Usually he just ends up exhausting himself with experiments, however, and retires to bed when the words in his textbooks begin to blur by curling himself up under a blanket. 

Doesn’t mind sleeping in the dark, and doesn’t fully mind sleeping with a small light. Too much of either, however, might set him a little on edge or make it harder for him to fall asleep.

Not a deep sleeper but not a light sleeper either. 

If he’s sharing a sleeping space, he’s not going to go out of his way to do anything particularly different. He’ll sleep as usual; depending on the person, he might choose to put some distance. 

If it’s with you, he may just fall asleep facing you. That’s the only notable thing. 

Overall just a generally calm and quiet sleeper. 

-> GEN:

Also similar to Senku in a lot of ways, such as in that he doesn’t sprawl around too much. 

He’s usually curled up, perhaps even more so than Senku, however, and out like a light. It’s funny for me to imagine him a deeeeep sleeper. 

But in actuality, I think he’d be an inbetween of heavy and light sleeper. When he’s nervous about something, he’s much more aware of himself and his surroundings, so the slightest off detail will have his eyes wide open. 

Usually, though, he can be a pretty heavy sleeper. Maybe a mouth breather. Maybe snores just a little (on occasion). 

Sleeps fairly regularly despite his celebrity status and being a student, or at least finds it harder to pull all-nighters. But like anyone else, he may get restless if he feels nervous about something. 

If I remember correctly, the fanbook mentioned details about his family life not being so great (either that or its some headcanons that resonated with me based on the almost sad expression he makes in reference to his family). Perhaps the exhaustion or stress from that either kept him awake or had him passing out when it came to sleep.

Maybe sleeps in somewhat of a fetus position? Wakes up with his neck killing him (projection). 

If he’s sharing a sleeping space, he might be flirty about it, depending on who you are.

Teases you slightly in every scenario, however; it only depends on what kind of jokes he's making. 

Also depending on his mood, he may start up some late night convos before heading off to sleep, usually if he’s got something on his mind.

In the same bed, I think he would want to be cuddly, but just wouldn’t be able to handle the sweat and discomfort I think, so he goes back over to his side fairly quick.

Has a thousand alarms for the morning because he has a tendency to sleep in or immediately fall back asleep when he wakes up.

-> RYUSUI: 

I can imagine Ryusui’s sleeping habits going either way.

On the one hand, Ryusui can be a pretty deep sleeper. With his pampered lifestyle, he probably has heavenly bedroom accommodations; luxury bed, high brand pillowcases and mattresses and what not. He also doesn’t have very many worries in his life. So he probably sleeps like a rock at night. I can also see that deep sleep habit occurring even in the stone world, much to everyone’s disgust.

At the same time, Ryusui can be weirdly alert. Perhaps this would be more so stone world, but I can see him being disturbed by small changes in the environment and waking up to them.

His sleeping schedule may also be all over the place, but generally organized and well kept up. I imagine that he doesn’t fall asleep too late. 

He does occasionally pull an all-nighter if he’s working on something of his, however. When his mind is set on something, sometimes he can get caught up in it. 

Francois’ character profile lists events pre-petrification, saying they developed “a special drink for Ryusui, who has little time for sleep, to help him recover from fatigue after a short night's sleep.” I forget if context is ever given for this, but it sort of implies Ryusui doesn’t sleep a lot. So the all-nighters may be more frequent than expected. 

Either way, he’s probably one of the first people awake at any time, around maybe 5-6am. He likes to spend his days being productive, so no matter what, he’s typically up bright and early, no matter what time he goes to sleep at. 

I can imagine him with a somewhat firm expression while he sleeps, again, mostly during stone world. The lifestyle sort of toughens him up, makes him a bit more on edge constantly. It’s reflected in his face while he’s sleeping, mouth firm, eyebrows furrowed. He may also have this kind of face while he sleeps pre-stone world too, however, almost like he’s always in a perpetual state of slight unease despite his optimism. 

If he’s sharing a sleeping space with another person, he probably tries to be mindful of differing sleeping schedules…but either way, he might accidentally wake you with crashes depending on what he’s doing.

If he’s with you in bed though, I think he might like to cuddle, at least at first. Until he gets all uncomfortable and accidentally pushes you away.

But you get to share in all his bed luxuries! And all of the things Francois does to help keep Ryusui awake throughout the day also extend toward you on his order. 

-> UKYO:

One of the more calm sleepers. 

He’s another person who’s, again, like Senku, in that he just lies on his side the entire night.

Doesn’t move around too much when he’s sleeping, maybe just to readjust his blanket or whatnot. At most, he’s just repositioning himself to be more comfortable.

I think he too would have a bit of a firm face when he sleeps. 

He may like to hold something when he’s sleeping. It’s usually just the pillow he’s sleeping on top of, but sometimes he might yank it down enough so it's almost like he’s holding it to his chest. 

Also maybe curled up in somewhat of a fetal position, also wakes up with a killer neckache on occasion. 

If he’s sharing a sleeping space with someone, he probably just sticks to his side of the bed. 

Doesn’t mind cuddling, but like most people, that probably just means you’ll break away later in the evening when the two of you fall asleep. 

Might try to watch shows and movies he’s wanted to catch up on only to fall asleep curled up on the couch (you don’t have the heart to wake him) (it's why you have a blanket on your cushions now) (more projecting).

Also may have a billion alarms, all at absurd times. He gives you an apologetic kiss on the forehead if it disturbs your own slumber.

-> CHROME: 

Ultimate mouth breather, ultimate blanket hog, ultimate BED hog (exaggeration). 

I’m mostly kidding, but out of all five, I can imagine Chrome to be one of the more chaotic sleepers. 

His leg is in the air, he’s starfishing, he’s snoring. He’s the whole insufferable package.

At the same time, however, I feel like it’d be funny if people anticipate Chrome to be such a difficult sleeper, only for him to be the exact opposite and instead sleep like a sound baby. 

I can see him being pretty hyperactive during the day and then crashing out at night so much so that he hardly moves, but mostly on days where he’s working himself to exhaustion. 

So take it either way.

If he’s sharing a space with you when he’s sleeping, he might be nervous as hell. Or if you’re a good enough friend, he’ll turn over and pass out with his leg out unapologetically no problem. 

I think for obvious reasons he doesn’t really tend to sleep with anything; no pillows or toys. 

And I also think cuddling is not a big thing. Though you might find an arm or leg tossed over you on restless nights…

If you confront him about those things in the morning, he’ll deny them endlessly.

Switch ukyo and chrome from dr stone please

*delightful clapping* YESH! I love these two very much! I've gotcha covered, anon! :D I couldn't decide whether to write this romantic or platonic, so read it as you see fit :3

Cloud 9 (Taglist):

@myreygn

“It was just so…incredible!” Chrome gasped out, tears in his eyes once more as he reflected on his very first trip in the hot air balloon. “I never knew humans could fly, you know? All my life I accepted that the only way I could see the world is by climbing the highest tree, or the tallest mountain- but that? That was so….”

“Life changing?” Ukyo smiled, something squeezing in his chest as he watched Chrome gush. It was like watching a little kid opening the presents Santa brought them; the joy in their eyes as they looked upon their dream gift. Even if the hand he had in it was one of thousands, he couldn’t help but feel a bit proud he was able to give Chrome something so magical.

“Yes!” Chrome sighed, shoulders relaxed with a happy hum. “I’m a little jealous- back in the modern world, people had access to planes and hot air balloons with ease. Did you like it the first time you went airborne?”

“Nope- I got sick almost immediately.” Ukyo grinned, laughing at Chrome’s shocked face. “To be honest, I’m still a little motion sick when it comes to the sky. That’s why I like doing groundwork.”

And I get to spend time with you. He didn’t say it outloud.

“Yeah, I gotcha.” Chrome nodded in understanding, puffing up with sudden pride. “Us groundwork people- we’re lucky! Sure- the sky team gets that breathtaking view, but we get to find all sorts of neat things! And we get first touch!” To prove his point, Chrome dropped into a squat, reaching into a bush before pulling out a shiny rock. “See what I mean?”

“Pretty. What is it?” Ukyo asked as Chrome tossed it into the collection basket.

“No idea. Senku would know though. Best guess I got is that it’s just a pretty stone, but someone ought to like it.” Chrome’s eyes glew then, a new idea taking form. “Hey- Ukyo; let’s play a game!”

“Aren’t we working though?” Ukyo asked, amused.

“We are- it’s like Senku always says: Science is fun and productive!”

“When has Senku ever said that?”

“I don’t know- maybe I dreamt it. Anyway-” Chrome waved him off, grinning with glee. “Let’s go look for more shiny rocks! Whoever finds the prettiest one wins.”

Ukyo hesitated. It seemed kinda…silly. Like something children would do. Not to mention they still haven’t found the oil- it seemed like a waste of time.

And yet…

“Oh okay.” Ukyo gave in, smiling when Chrome whooped. “But we’re staying within the area- if we go too far we’ll lose track of the sky team.”

“Fair enough- get ready to lose!” Chrome grinned over his shoulder one last time before diving into the wildlife, seeking out stones.

“Oh don’t worry- I’ve already won.” Ukyo said to no one, just a tad breathless.

~~~

Stone hunting turned out to be quite the challenge.

The shiny one they found must have been a fluke- every rock either turned up earthworms or even uglier rocks beneath. Ukyo felt himself grow a tad frustrated at the lack of good stones.

Just a few paces away, he heard Chrome whoop in glee- most likely finding another shiny rock. Of course he had a natural knack for this sort of thing; he grew up collecting since he was likely a baby. Chrome was gonna sweep the floor with him.

Ukyo admittedly didn’t care if he lost- but he didn’t want Chrome to feel like he won by default either. He carried on searching.

Some time passed, and eventually Ukyo’s back was starting to ache from all the crouching. He went to announce defeat when he found Chrome kneeling with his back to him, studying a stray rock closely. He was so focused- tracing the shape with his eyes and swiping at excess dirt with his already stained thumbs.

So focused…and so vulnerable. Ukyo felt himself grin as he put down his basket, creeping over to the unsuspecting scientist.

“Is this…no, just a regular rock.” Chrome tossed it back into the bush, shaking his head in disappointment. “The pickings are slim to-DAHAHHAY!”

It was a dirty trick, but Ukyo had long lost interest in shiny rocks. Fingers danced along Chrome’s sides, pressing into his ribs and trailing along his belly, scratching through the fabric of his shirt. “What’s wrong? No luck with the rocks?”

“Ahehahahhahhahaha! U-Uhuhuuhuhkyo, you chehehahhahahater!” Chrome cackled, falling back and sending his collection basket rolling. “Wahhahahit, my treahahhahasures!”

“Don’t worry- we’re not on a slope.” Ukyo reached out with one hand to push the basket upright before returning to the tickles. “And I’m not cheating- I’m collecting a new stone. The Chrome Stone.”

“Yoohohoohu’d have to lohohoohoohhok soohohohomewwhhehehehere ehehehehelse for Chrohohohoohohmium! Ahehahahhaha wahhahhahahit- I miiihihihiihssed the johohohoke!” He cried, twisting and turning to escape the other man’s tickling fingers. “Stahhahahhap stahhahhahp gehahahhahahhahaha!”

“Mmm…nope. I don’t want to.” Ukyo grinned, even as he began to lighten up the touch. 

Big mistake.

Chrome- with a sudden burst of energy- twisted around and tackled him, sending them back into the grass. Before Ukyo could even react Chrome was tickling him, fingers flying across his belly and sides- sending riptides of laughter into the air around them. “Chrohohoohohohme whahahahhahait, I’m shahhahahhahhaharry!”

“Sorry, but sorry isn’t gonna save you now!” Chrome giggled, one hand moving up to Ukyo’s armpit while the other carried on drilling into the soft parts of his belly, making him squeal and arch. “You cheated in our game- and for that you must be punished Ishigami Village style!”

“Yohohohohoohou guuhuhuhuhuhuhys tihihihihiihihihckle eahhahahhahahachothehehehehher?” He wheezed out, too mirthful to get anything else out. “Thahahahhhahahat’s kihihihiihiihnda cuhuhuhhuhuuhuhuhhuuhte!”

“Cute? Oh no- we’re tortuous!” Chrome swept his hands up to Ukyo’s ears to make a point, pinching and pressing into them and his neck. “We make our bad villagers suffer!”

“CHROOHOOHHOOHOHOME!” A squeal ripped out of Ukyo’s throat, his laughter anew. He reached up to grab the other’s wrists, but his arms were jelly after a combination of rock hunting and tickles. He had no strength left. “PLEAHAHHAHHAHASE STAHAHHAHAHAP!”

“Do you admit defeat?” Chrome squeezed the base of his neck, earring a cackle.

“YEHEHEHEHHES!”

“Am I the stone finding champion?”

“OHOOHOHOHF COHOOHOHOHOURSE!”

“....Promise?”

“CHROOHOOHOOOHME!”

“Hehe, okay okay.” Chrome laughed as he stopped, watching Ukyo collapse beneath him- gasping for air. “That’s what you get for trying to cheat!”

“Fahahhair enough…what rocks did you find anyway?” Ukyo nodded at the basket nearby, forgotten in their game. Now it was Chrome’s turn to blush, a sheepish smile on his face as he scratched at his chin.

“Heh…so, you know how we were supposed to be looking for rocks? Well..I kinda got distracted.” He got up and dragged over his goodies, showing Ukyo the insides. The only rock within was the one they originally sighted. The rest was a variety of herbs, mushrooms, berries, and what looked to be a stink bug. “His name is Jerry.” Chrome answered Ukyo’s raised brow. “He wouldn’t get off the mushroom.”

“Pfft- I’m sure Francois will have a field day with that one.” Ukyo laughed as they stood, gathering up their things. “Technically you won; you were the one to find the shiny rock in the first place. Victory is yours.”

“How about we call it a draw instead? Then we’re both winners.” Chrome grinned, hiking up the path. “Besides, I got to spend the day with you. That’s a win in my book.”

He was too far ahead to notice the small inhale of air Ukyo took, nor did he see the soft smile playing on his lips after.

“Yeah…that sounds good to me.” Ukyo nodded before following along.

Thanks for reading!

Happy birthday to Mod Hadrian!!! ___________________________________________________

"...Ukyo-chan."

"Hm?" He blinks and looks up, as if he hadn't heard the footsteps on their way to his hut almost 5 minutes ago. As if he's surprised that the mentalist has shown his face in the doorway. "Everything okay, Gen?"

Gen's lips are pursed in what he thinks is supposed to be frustration, but the expression doesn't look good on him and Ukyo would rather wipe it away.

"I suppose so." Gen tilts his head to the side. "I'm uncertain what would be wrong, Ukyo-chan."

And, of course, he can tell that Gen doesn't mean that. He could tell that Gen didn't mean that even if Gen didn't have an eyebrow raised and a tightness about his entire body. He can't help but think that it's the closest he's ever seen the mentalist to dropping his façade.

"Okay, then, are you here for any specific reason?" He raises an eyebrow, small smile coming to his lips. "It is the middle of the night, Gen, what are you doing awake."

"Hmph." Gen steps into the hut with an air of annoyance coming to replace the frustration. "I could ask the same of you, Ukyo-chan." He watches the other with careful consideration and a cocked head as Gen crosses the room, coming closer and closer towards him. 

"Well, I'm not the one wandering into other people's huts in the middle of the night, am I?" He smiles up at Gen, and he knows that the other will see it as the teasing expression that it's meant to be. “So, Gen, even if you’re not asleep right now, why are you here?”

Gen presses his mouth into a thin line, he glances over his shoulder, eyes landing on the curtain covering Ukyo’s entrance, just for a second, before the mentalist drops into a sitting position beside him. Ukyo has to blink the surprise off of his face to avoid gawking at the way Gen inches closer and closer and–

Has Gen ever gotten this close to him before?

The only other time he can think of is that time in the forest, after Gen came back from Ishigami Village, looking just like he had that day all those years ago–

–all those hundreds of thousands of years ago–

–when the two of them had first met. When he clung to Ukyo’s torso as though he would disappear, as if he wanted someone to comfort him. As if he were afraid.

And even then, he hadn’t dropped his façade beyond that.

He remembers lacing their fingers together that day,

And he feels Gen pulling on one of his hands. He feels the magician linking their fingers and leaning closer.

“…I apologize for bothering you so late at night, Ukyo-chan.” He mutters. “I suppose I was simply so concerned for your well-being that I just had to check on you~!”

“Uh-huh.” He nods with a soft smile taking up his lips. He grips Gen’s hand right back, leaning closer to the mentalist and closing his eyes in content. “Sure, Gen.”

“I’m serious, Ukyo-chan!” The mentalist shoots right back with annoyance coating his tone.

It’s a cover. Ukyo knows that.

“I didn’t say you weren’t.” He turns his head. “I know you are.”

Gen lifts his head and turns to meet Ukyo’s eyes. They sit like that, staring right into each other’s irises for a long, silent moment before Ukyo takes it upon himself to lean forward, to press their lips together and laugh softly, teasingly, as Gen lights up bright red and jerks backwards with a loud screech of “EHHHHHH??????”

“Awwww, did I steal the mentalist’s second kiss too~?” He coos, reaching his free hand up to pull his hat down, hoping that maybe, just maybe, it could do something to hide the blush spreading over his own cheeks. “I’m in shock. I’d think a celebrity like you would have had a great deal of first kisses already~”

“U-Ukyo-chan..!! I wasn’t ready..!!” Gen puffs out his cheeks in annoyance and Ukyo can’t help but laugh again.

“Well, you did tell me to be alive to return it.” He squeezes Gen’s hand in his fingers. “So, I’m alive. And I’ve returned it.”

“…mmm.” Gen’s smile drops right back off his face and Ukyo feels him inching closer once again.

Gen always was clingy.

“Gen.” He leans a bit closer to him. “You can tell me–“

“I–“ Gen frowns, deep and annoyed. “I had a… well.” He tilts his head away. “…It’s embarrassing.”

“No one’s here but me, and you’ve embarrassed yourself for me way too many times for me to change my opinion of you.” Ukyo smirks and Gen’s cheeks light up with a soft dusting of pink once again. 

“…fine. Fine.” The mentalist huffs and lifts his head, resting it against the wall of the hut and glancing up, towards the ceiling. “…I had… I had a bad dream.”

“Oh?” Ukyo raises an eyebrow, lips twisting into a serious line. 

“…you…” His eyebrows knit themselves together, and he looks as thought it’s a struggle to remember it. “…you died. Hyouga-chan… g-got you… in…” Gen gestures wildly towards his chest with his free hand. 

“In the heart?” Ukyo finishes and Gen nods. 

“…mhm. And… you died. I couldn’t even…” He moves his free hand up to grip his hair. “…I couldn’t do anything to help you. E-Even… S-Senkuu-chan couldn’t–“

He pulls their hands apart and, just for a moment, he sees Gen’s eyes go wide. He sees him look as thought he’s about to panic, until Ukyo instead wraps his arms – both of his arms – around Gen’s torso, pressing his lips to the mentalist’s temple and gently leading the other’s face into his shoulder.

“I didn’t die, Gen. See?” He smiles softly, pulling away just as quickly as he pressed them together, just enough for their eyes to meet. “I’m right here.” And he moves his hands downwards, gripping one of Gen’s hands in his. “If you need more proof,” he leads Gen’s hand across his chest, upwards and over the bandages still wrapped around the gash on his chest, upwards and over until the mentalist’s long, delicate fingers reach the intended destination. “Feel that?”

Gen’s eyes are wide, just for a moment, before he shifts forward, pressing his ear over his hand, still wrapped up in Ukyo’s and the archer feels a soft blush dusting his own cheeks. He can feel Gen’s hair tickling his neck and his chest and the other’s cloak is over his mostly-bear legs and–

“Mmmmm. I much prefer to hear it, Ukyo-chan.” He can hear a smirk in the mentalist’s voice, and he thinks that he much prefers this to the sound of fear and sadness. 

A long moment passes. Neither of them moves.

Ukyo thinks that he wishes every moment could make him feel this warm.

“…it’s quite the lovely sound, Ukyo-chan.”

“It is, isn’t it?” He smiles, one hand coming up to card its way through Gen’s hair. “It’s always such a nice sound.”

“Yes, but,” Gen looks up at him. “Your sound is such a nice sound, Ukyo-chan.”

And the blush is on his cheeks again–

“A-Alright,” He clears his throat in an almost dramatic fashion. “Alright. It’s time to get some sleep.”

“Awwwww,” Gen whines. “You’d truly send me back to my hut so late at night all by my lonesome?” He looks up with pouty eyes and scrunched lips. “What if there are ruffians about, Ukyo-chan??”

He breathes a deep sigh. Not a single puff of air is made out of genuine annoyance, but both of them appreciate the brief spectacle, the façade of a different meaning behind their actions.

“Well, if you’re worried about ruffians, then I suppose you can stay here tonight.”

“Yay!!” Gen chirps, shifting up and curling against Ukyo’s side. “Goodnight, Ukyo-chan!”

He breathes another sigh. Fond, quiet, and soft.

He presses his lips to the top of Gen’s hair.

“Goodnight, Gen.”
