Tsbs headcanon dump because i can
-Nebula wasn’t born an astral, instead created into one by the main group, similar to lunar
-Jack has a habit of disappearing randomly to sit by the lake near the house post-infection (scares the living hell out of solar)
-He also likes swimming and tree-climbing
-Earth uses flappy-hands when excited (this one isn’t really a headcannon since you can see her doing it when Kat uses Vr, but-)
-Dazzle really likes flavored(?) bread (Ex: chocolate, pumpkin(though she doesn’t tell Jack about that) and Banana)
-Nebula has the ability to translate text into any language just by running their finger over it
-⬆️Adding onto this, Nebula writes in their native language (the one they spoke before becoming an astral)
-Before astral-hood, Nebula wanted to become an astronomer, that is why their so curious about Earth
-Dazzle+Jack share a tumblr account (neither sun nor solar knows they have a tumblr account)
-(Mgafs)Andrew and Jack would be those cousins that beg their parents to hang out every weekend
-Moon has gotten into sculpting (Based off of their interests in making figurines)
-Eclipse was forced into baking by Ballora and is happy to admit: he hates it (he’s lying and everyone knows it but they’ll let him think they don’t)
-Eclipse needs glasses but he refuses to get any, causing him to squint all the time
-Earth’s favorite dessert is strawberry shortcake (this later became Nebula’s favorite as well)
-Lunar’s favorite food is a pizookie with chocolate ice cream, nutella, and whipped cream
 -Ruin actually really enjoys talking and playing with Charlie but feels he’d be deceiving her by telling her about his past after allowing her to get attached
-Jack is possessed by Johnathan (this is personally a theory because i noticed Jack started to gain sentience once old moon came back)
-Astrals don’t actually speak English, they speak in their own language and translate it with their powers (similar to how their names aren’t actually the star signs, and how they chose their forms off of the symbols for said signs)
-Jack actually gets sad-jealous, everyone likes everyone else more than him and he really, really doesn’t blame them
-Eclipse’s rays are broken; some are loose and cannot retract at all, others are cracked, and two or three have their points snapped off. this is from him getting angry and being surrounded by important items and not being able to break anything without regretting it later
-Old Lunar used to draw pictures of him, Eclipse, and Bloodmoon together
-Nebula+Solar take turns info dumping about random topics (neither of them usually know what the other is talking about half the time, but they still listen anyway). Because of this, they’ll both randomly drop information about the topics they learned from each other to other people and no one knows what they’re talking about.
-Earth taught Dazzle, Pollux, and Nebula how to make flower crowns
-Earth has a book filled with pressed flowers and quotes from her friends+info about the flowers on the pages
-Nebula brings down flowers from other planets to gift to Earth (they also make flower crowns/bracelets/necklaces out of said flowers for themself, and has taken up half of Earth's flower book)
-Sunshine is having a Sun moment and hiding an animal, but instead of him hiding a cat, he’s hiding a chinchilla (i have no idea where he got one, he just did) and named them Kimchi
-Moonlight has tried to create a Jack of his own, but Eclipse keeps catching them before he can even finish half of him(inspired by when Moonlight and Moon made a reaction video together)
-(Post-infection) Solar checks Jack’s tracker every 30 minutes, and that is NOT an exaggeration

Note
Random headcanon that Sun reminds Dazzle more of her mom than her dad, so sometimes she just... calls him mom. It's mostly accidental, and at first the other's tease Sun for it (("femboy supremacy/level 10 femboy" type stuff, all in jest)), but eventually it just... sticks.
It winds up with the other kids (including Jack) just going Sun = Mom/Backup Mom. It eventually includes some of the regulars at the daycare. Most of the parents find it low-key hilarious, and it isn't harmful so they let it go.
Sun just gets BOMBARDED on mother's day tho
Children calling Sun "Mom" sounds so adorable ngl

SAMS/EAPS/LAES Music taste headcannons
☀️🌑🌎 in no particular order☀️🌑🌎
hyper specific because with head cannons its go big or GO HOME! (if you see me namedrop a song/musician its a recommendation/hj)
Sun- pop songs n' jazz, primarily romance, plays them in the daycare with a small bluetooth speaker and on request lets kids suggest songs to play to. (its not a loud speaker, if the kids don't like it they can just step ten feet away and its basically static)
does listen to some spicy songs but has multiple safe guards that a playlist with them in it never gets played in the daycare. (one time Moon was told to play some taylor swift or something and it started blasting Unholy)
memorizes every single song he listens to. listens to 20 songs on repeat every single day and never gets bored of them.
has dozens of playlists, 4 songs in each one. (except for the one for the daycare with like at least 40) and that playlist is constantly being reworked because it's not organized enough
specific bands he listens to; um.. like top ten spotify list idk I don't listen to pop music much, only time I do is when my dad forces the radio in the car instead of me choosing me silly music
Moon- Indie rock and glam rock are his top hits but he likes other rock genres, blasts the volume real high (plays it in his head) to the point if your like a regular human walking past him you can make out the lyrics just with a tad bit of distortion
literally cannot work without music
because of how loud he blasts it he cannot focus on work.
low hanging fruit but he listens to Seb Lowe n' mother mother
has one playlist (the 'liked' songs playlist) has over 500 songs, 34 hours, and can switch on a dime from the above category to a Latin chant that sounds vaguely Shakespearian / Christian
Earth-k-pop/pop girly, listens to sillyies music at home n trying to sleep but cannot at the daycare because she wants to make sure she can hear when children need her and since a lot of her songs are energetic she feels it will distract her.
has a lot of favorite musicians, cannot pick one, either listens to every single song in every one of their albums (regardless if they like all the songs or if its a minority/ one album they like, they are loyal!) or listens to one song and loves the vibe but PHYSICALLY CANNOT listen to another.
another low hanging fruit but she listens to barbie movie OSTs
prefers to listen to music with a headset (the pastel ones with cat ears) instead of playing it in her head because it makes the music feel like its around her than inside playing in her mind
Lunar-k pop, literally the same thing as earth since the only / first time he encountered a music genre he liked (HATED the loud headbang of Moon's songs) was when he was at Earths house.
maybe did use to like Moons music but listening to it when trying to sleep gave him the most eldritch nightmares known to man
listens to music to sleep, that's the only time he listens to songs..
during nap time in the daycare he dozes off with the children, he has to physically restrain himself from playing black pink while the other children are sleeping. (insert the making deal with rez thumbnail but Rez is his Spotify app)
started listening to other types of songs since the playlists earth has have started getting old after a few months, discovered he likes indie folk and certain country songs.
has a song literally named GOOD MORNING SUNSHINE (by the narcissist cookbook) that he, again, only listens to when starting to sleep despite probably needing that as his alarm clock's tone.
Eclipse- anything with a sick beat + a mind melting meaning, like Saint Bernard by Lincoln, I Am an Island by Phemiec, Cannibal by Neathen Apollo. ect. listens to songs to decompress and simmer in thoughts.
only listens to sad/angry songs
not because those are the emotion he dwells on the most, he just likes the vibe that sad/suffering songs tend to have.
..yah its also that.
Solar- k-pop girl band girly, Chappell roan, bit of folk and synth pop?, Eclipse didn't design his new body with the function to do things inside the head, he uses his phone to listen to music.
listens to music when working, lowered however so he can focus.
the music doesn't make a difference, he tunes it out after the first five minutes. he probably listens to music to make sure his phone didn't fall out his pocket/ has enough battery incase of emergency situations where he needs to be called
for the first week alive again he had to use wired ear buds because the wireless ones were being shipped, he HATED them because when he crouched to reach something or got forbit do some precise mechanics below eye level it would get in the way.
Jack-we already have a canonical answer to that >o w >o but uh, probably some intense dream pop, neo-psychedelia, and indie pop.
Solar was the one to set up jacks Spotify (he is just using Solar's) just so jack wouldn't listen to anything too explicit.
Solar put the daycare theme on there as a joke because he knows Jack gets frustrated listening to that dundundundun over and OVER in the daycare, somehow fixed the music burnout problem?? jack started voluntarily listening to that daycare theme playlist every single day
the daycare playlist has one song and that is the daycare theme on repeat for 3 hours.
Ruin- I know the low hanging fruit is Hamilton but I have some real suggestions, hyper pop, country and folk pop, and yeah, basically anything from 1990's/classical/theatrical
has a theater kid playlist that goes from Regina George to Tom lehrer so quick and he giggles when it goes from LET THE WORLD BURN to hehe I'm so happy Ima end ww3 : DDD hehe mom look at me! dropping! a! bomb! on! the! capital! of! Britain!
in the same playlist he has Will Wood and Tom Cardy
every week he has a new favorite song (he cycles through them too fast) this week it was Unsweetened lemonade by Amelie Farren, last week it was Rum Sum Sum no I will not elaborate.
when making playlists he just adds a bunch of recommended songs and then listen to them later, when making a 1920's playlist he heard 'you are my sunshine' and started tearing up because he immediately imagined it being about him and his Monty.. 'don't take my sunshine away from me' ..yeah.
has the most absurd playlist names but at the same time those are the best themed ones, they are available to the public. he knows their vibes are impeccable, he wishes there to be a treasure hunt for his great taste in music
Dazzle- likes piano music, though doesn't like listening to music in general since she'd prefer watching a video with music or just a video in general. visuals are importent.
EAPS Sun- Hyper pop (Ruin recommended it to him), that is all he listens to.
doesn't understand volume modulators and blasts it LOUD. like, not intentionally, it doesn't sound too loud to him but it's like the entire daycare can hear him blasting I <3 Harajuku by Alice Longyu Gao , Fraxiom
also does not play it in his mind, he thinks he is, hes just using his speakers.
Moon has physically begged Eclipse to silence the speakers and automatically make his spotify play in his head because of the amount of times Sun would just blast some foul things not understanding the meaning infront of children (webcore! by kwite as an example)
EAPS Moon- exact opposite of Sun, took the opposite side of Ruins taste profile, the classical stuff, though you cannot bring him to enjoy anything musical related. think, Bernadette by Elle Cordova, I'm always chasing rainbows by Judy garland.
very chill songs, Ruin tried to ease him in with one of Tom lehrers calmer songs (be prepared) but he didn't like the vibe.
he'd probably be down to try other genres, especially rock. that one seems cool to him, the teens like it. he just assumes anything negative would activate his KC even though he knows thats not how that works.
Puppet- mixed bag, either country romance/breakup songs or anime OST's (I know thats low hanging fruit I literally got no read on Puppet on that front of things.)
would like the Orion experience, though when one of the orion songs come on they (she? plz correct me but I am not sure on Puppets pronouns, isn't Puppet trans?) get whiplash because Orions voice is similar to theirs

TSAMS/TLAES characters and MLP
(This is my headcanons about TSAMS/TLAES characters and what they think/would think about MLP since MLP used to be my favourite cartoon when i was a kid.)
Sun: He does not know much about MLP, hears about it from kids at the Daycare and Dazzle.
Moon: He watched a few episodes, his favourite character is Fluttershy. Not a that big fan of MLP but he likes it.
Eclipse: He knows that MLP exists, but like Sun does not know much about it. If he were to watch MLP, i feel like his favourite character would be Sunset Shimmer for some reason.
Lunar: They have watched MLP episodes with Earth, but is not very interested in it. I imagine Lunar would make theories based on the details they have noticed if they was more interested because they are very observant.
Creator: Does not really know about it, but if he did he would see it as meaningless distraction for kids.
Bloodmoon: They do not know about MLP, if they would it would not be interesting to watch for them. Maybe they would like those Pinkamena horror comics and MLP infection AUs because those usually include blood and violence.
KC: I doubt he would know about MLP, but if he did i imagine he would watch it because of curiosity.
Trashcan Man/Felix: Does not know about MLP, if he did he would have the same opinion as Creator would.
Solar Flare: I imagine he does not know about cartoons for children, however if he watched MLP i feel like he would analyse the characters and the plot. The character that would be his favourite is the one he finds the most interesting.
Earth: MLP is one of her favourite cartoons that she watched. Her favourite character is Fluttershy. She would probably watch it with Lunar or Pollux.
Nexus: He loved MLP, maybe still secretly does love it. I imagine Nexus would love the MLP songs so much for some reason. His favourite character would be Fluttershy or Applejack i think.
Ruin: Has heard about it, but did not watch it. Would absolutely love Rarity as a character if he did watch it.
Solar: Watched a few episodes with Nexus. His favourite character would be Twilight perhaps? But MLP would remind him of Nexus so i feel he would try to avoid thinking about it.
Castor: He watched some MLP episodes with Pollux. His favourite character would be Twilight.
Pollux: Loves MLP, it was one of the first things she watched. She would watch it with Castor or Earth. I feel like her favorite character would be Pinkie Pie.
Jack-O-Moon: Has watched MLP with Dazzle, likes it but not very much. Absolutely Loves Rainbow Dash.
Dazzle: Loves MLP, but it is not her favourite cartoon. Her favourite character would be Pinkie Pie. Watches it with Jack, Sun or Molten.
Molten: Watched it with Dazzle and Jack. Is curious about this cartoon.
Dark Sun: Like Sun, has heard about this cartoon from the children in the Daycare. Does not have any opinion about it.
Frank: Does not know about MLP, but if he saw someone watching it he would watch it with them.
Neptor: Does not know about it, if he still would be alive he would watch it with Dazzle and Jack.
Computer: Knows about MLP, but never watched it.
Taurus: Pollux told him about it, he finds this cartoon interesting but did not watch it.
Nebula: Watched it with Earth a few times, says that it is cool.
Monty: Has heard about it from kids and Earth, did watch a few episodes.
Goliath: Does not know about it, but even if he did he would not care about MLP.
Lord Eclipse: Does not know about it, because he does not care about cartoons.
Servant Sun: Maybe he would have known about it before, but since Lord Eclipse erased his memories and turned him into loyal servant, he does not know about it now.
Monty (Lord Eclipse dimension) : Does know about it, but does not care about it.
Lord Lunar: Maybe he does know about, maybe not. Though i feel like he would like watching it when he is bored or has free time.
Servant Eclipse: Views it as stupid cartoon for kids, and does not care about it.
Lord Bloodmoon: Does not know what MLP is. Would like horror comics and AUs about it perhaps.
Evil Lunar: Maybe he did know what MLP was, but does not care about it now.
Evil Monty: Does know about MLP but does not care about it.
Evil Earth: Loves MLP, but does not think much about because she is busy with other things.
Solar's Sun: Perhaps he did know what MLP was, but did not watch it.
Solar's Moon: Does not know about MLP, would not care even if he knew what it was.
British Monty: Heard about it from kids, but does not know much about it.
Ruin's Monty: Also heard about it from kids, but does not know much about it.

SOLAR AND RUIN HEADCANONS THAT ARE LONGER THAN THE BIBLE! :D
IMPORTANT: I CALL RUIN/JIGSAW DOLUS BTW SO DON'T BE CONFUSED- QWQ
Solar:
Tumblr media
(I SWEAR IT LOOKS BETTER IN REAL LIFE TRUST ME THE QUALITY OF MY PHONE IS JUST STRAIGHT FROM THE 99 CENT STORE- 😭🙏)
Solar is Romanian (WHERE MY ROMANIAN PEOPLE AT? >:D And don't question the logic of my headcanons MY HEADCANONS, MY RULES >:D). Solar can speak fluently German, Romanian of course, and a bit of French and Portuguese.
Solar is gender-apathetic and could care LESS about gender and pronouns. Solar still dresses more masculine though because he simply likes it.
He's gay and somewhere on the ace-spectrum :D (HE'S OUR ICON I TELL U 💅)
Solar has chronic migraines and backpain and they just get worsened by his AWFUL posture habits. He always takes medications for those, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to function properly in life. Sometimes, however, he overuses them and goes overboard. Sometimes TOO much overboard. (I SWEAR TO Y'ALL IF YOU QUESTION THE LOGIC OF THE MEDICATION THINGY I'M GONNA MAKE YOU EXPLODE LIKE LUNAR 😃)
His rays aren’t usable anymore. They are fully broken, and two tips of the seven couldn’t be patched up, while the two others were able to be a bit restored by fixing the ends through another, mismatched metal. HIS Moon used to always grab and tug at them as punishment, and unconsciously, he sometimes repeats those actions inflicted upon him by lightly pulling at them when he is stressed or dissociating. He doesn’t allow anyone to touch his rays. NO ONE. (... OUR TRAUMATIZED QUEEN 💃✨ BUT LIKE HE GOING THRU IT FR 😭🙏)
He is an insomniac and a workaholic with a non-existent sleep schedule. He’s got no free time to rewind and relax and doesn’t ALLOW himself to do so, only fueled by coffee and medication.
However, he finds comfort in Dolus (AKA RUIN) and whenever he spends all of his time to hang out with him. He loves those musical numbers Dolus always persuades him into, and although he looks like he is annoyed at first, it’s a big joy for him.
Apropos Dolus, Dolus gifted him a shark keychain which is now securely hanging from Solar’s belt every day. (See picture above :D) Solar uses this as a stress toy because its soft, squishy texture and wool underneath makes it perfect for it.
He often vapes when no one's looking. That's why his voice is so raspy (and from the screaming)
Dolus (aka Ruin/Jigsaw):
Tumblr media
DOLUS IS BRITISH, MATE, NO ONE CAN CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE, MIC DROP 👏 He can only speak English in a British accent and the most broken French known to mankind.
He is genderfluid and sometimes feels like a man and sometimes just non-binary :D His preferred pronouns are he/they.
He is Achillean and somewhere on the ace-spectrum too!
Dolus has a passion for musicals and the theatre. He knows every song of the Hamilton Musical in and out and has watched “The Greatest Showman” over a dozen of times and loves EVERY song of it. Every day, one can catch him humming a song from his favorite musical and dancing a bit to them. In addition, he LOVES to perform those musicals, and he involves Solar in them. Basically: He is a theater kid.
He also has a REALLY big obsession with sharks and even has a full-body shark suit for sleeping and a few shark plushies, which is why he loves the nickname “Sharky” so much.
A big scar is stretched across his face and covers up his right eye, coming from a fire incident where he was trapped underneath ashes, flames and wood. His right eye is still usable, but not as strong as his left in terms of eyesight.
He also has weak joints and can’t endure any sort of pressure for a long time, which is why he has to take sitting and laying breaks and has to do some physical exercises. It's annoying and prevents him from doing some things, but this won't stop him doing things he LOVES. He can’t run properly because of this, walk for a long time and stand more than necessary. Solar sometimes helps Dolus sit when Dolus needs a sitting break or helps him walk when there's no other option. Dolus feels bad about that.
He doesn’t like travel and moving vehicles, as well as bright lights.
THANKS FOR LISTENING, TUNG (=Bye)! :D

☁️🩵✨AEOLUS (HEADCANONS)✨🩵☁️
(I was bored, not headcanon btw)
They are Very shy and self conscious
They’re the same age as nexus, they came around the time after V2 eclipse died.
They’re bigender and can go by any pronouns. Usually goes by “he” or “they/them”
they’re pansexual, recipromantic, and Achillean but super closeted. They’re afraid no one will like them back or not be interested. They don’t know what love feels like.
They have angelic singing voice, that’s useful for soothing crying babies and anxious children. They like to sing in private when they’re alone. Nexus likes to call him his “little song bird”
They are very popular, despite their popularity, they still feel very insecure about themselves around others because they secretly didn’t like to have so much attention but, they try to hide it for the sake of the children, they’re friends and themselves.
They enjoy science, and likes to share out some ideas. He and new moon hang out privately to enjoy scientific activities together and sci-fi exploration.
They have a stage name, cloud drop/sky drop
They have HUUUGE hyper fixation with clouds (it’s called nephophile), they love seeing clouds, how they can takd shape and look beautiful in the sky. New moon would take them out to do cloud watching because he enjoys them being so excited.
They are shorter than everyone else, but slightly shorter than ruin. For reasons, they are made innocent and less intimidating for shy kids and babies.
They love soft textures and have a plushie collection
He and nexus are soulmates. They are independent and are dependent on each other. Aeolus always accompany him in the hardest times, especially during solars death. Nexus hates everyone except for Aeolus because he was the only one that companied him, everyone else gave up on him but he didn’t.
Aeolus HATES Monty because of his brutish nature, (and for shooting his bf) but he Earth are besties :)
He and nexus had a secret relationship and didn’t want to reveal anything because they are awkward. They hang out together in private and don’t want to let anyone know where they go off too. Solar was the first to discover their relationship but agreed to keep it secret. Solar respects their privacy and lets them to decide if they ever feel like coming out or not. (Big brother Solar approves 👍)
They enjoy cult of the lamb. He and Sun have a BIG hyper fixation of the game and play for HOURS through the day night.
They love to do ballet and aerial dance, they practice doing they’re poses for hours to get ready for performances. they practice on the wire the first time and got tangled up new moon had to
They have favorite TV shows/movies: Mlp, frozen, Cinderella, Snow White, the nut cracker, Alice in wonderland
They been givin nicknames, specifically by new moon/nexus: “Fluffy, snowy, snowflake, angel, bunny, cuddle bug, puppy eyes, starlight, little dreamboat, princess, darling, babe, love, sweat heart, little song bird, baby doll, precious”

I JUST HAD A THOUGHT-
(this is coming from someone who can't remember if Solar ever told anyone about Jack's little gift to him)
Remember how Solar (in the ep where Sun's voice is just- really broken) got defensive and secretive about anyone going near his bed?
My random headcanon is that Solar keeps Jack's gift under his bed, away from everyone else, so he could listen to it every night before bed and every morning before he gets ready for the day.
I mean- this would honestly really fit Solar better than other headcanons I've thought about (like a secret diary. He doesn't seem like the type to write out his feelings to me)
That is a sad but also a very cute headcanon

I have a idea hc for my Molten and Gilioth.
I can't spell their name but anyway.
I just remember Sari from TFA(Tranformers:Animated) of how-
Spoilers for season 3 I think.
That she was a protoform and dad's DNA.
SO,I am thinking crap.But Molten and Golioth are both protoforms? And I just look it up since I forgot the name.
BUT.Since cybertrain,they can grow abit- So depends whatever bullcrap the creator's did(Well,I am not theorizing.But headcanoning for my aus mostly) put extra stuff that can restore or protect their project and then add whatever design.
I don't think the Creator's would have taste to put a flipping design on them,but yeah!
Anyways,gonna give Molten a sibling-

Lotr headcanon, having lots of patches on your clothes is fashionable in the Shire. The more patches, the cooler you are. Especially if it's a lot of different fabrics. It's common to trade patches with friends and family, and it's usually treated with high sentimental value. It's like carrying a piece of someone with you.
While the hobbits are on the quest, their clothes get holes and such. This leads Sam and Frodo to nab small things from the other members of the fellowship, like handkerchiefs or anything too worn for use, to use as patches. Merry and Pippin aren't so courteous, and cut pieces from the fellowship's clothes while they sleep.
Of course, the hobbits exchange patches amongst themselves while traveling, and they never go anywhere without a needle and some thread. Sam is the best at sewing. Pippin is not allowed around needles.
Boromir notices this, thinks it's adorable, and leaves things out purposely for the hobbits to use. Eventually, he asks about it, and they convince him to do the patches, too.
Aragorn also notices and thinks it's adorable, but doesn't bring it up to them. He's secretly flattered to find pieces of his rag on Frodo's pants. He asks Boromir about it instead.
Legolas doesn't notice. His clothes are elven-made, and the scissors refuse to cut it.
Gimli notices the random holes in his clothes, and the things going missing, but doesn't realize it's the hobbits. He brings it up to Legolas, who immediately convinces Gimli that he's crazy and it's all in his head.
Gandalf notices, obviously, and he doesn't mind until Pippin tries to cut his cloak while hes asleep. He proceeds to wake up and yell at him until dawn.
After Boromir dies, Aragorn takes his cloak, and sews pieces onto his clothes. These are the only patches he has.
Bilbo has a set of clothes with patches from the dwarves, from his own adventure. He told them about the tradition, and they all gave him pieces of fabric to use. He can still recount which patch belonged to who.
