#shrimpo x reader

[the-s1lly-corner]

May I ask for Shrimpo and Reader as friends/besties and they both usually bond over play fighting?

Like, example, yk how goats play fight? Yeah, well like that

In general Reader loving play fighting

Playfighting w/ Shrimpo

Hmmm hmm it's currently 1am as I write this opening debating on if I should sleep, work on requests, or work on art hmmm hmm hard choices

Notes: reader is gn, platonic post, toon reader, short post, written on mobile

CWs: none

Sometimes he gets a little too into the fight. Gets a little too rough and he kind of eggs you on to get into it as well

You guys elbow and punch each other in passing- in the hallways, in the eating areas. Elevators, too

You've both gotten told off over it for doing it during visiting hours by some of the staff at gardenview

...shrimpo immediately elbowed you as soon as their backs were turned

100% there's a cartoonish cloud covering the both of you when you really go at it, complete with random objects flying out of the puff

It's.. a little funny actually...

He has longer arms so he's got some range, it just makes it more fun for you to try to dodge around his hits

He's slow so at least you got the upper hand there...!

♡ Shrimpo... Oh boy, Shrimpo

♡ Getting him to just not hate you is a challenge all its own, so if you're in a relationship with this shrimp, it means you're probably gonna need patience. Like, a lot of patience.

♡ But, once you're past that, it's surprisingly not the worst!

♡ He's not really used to being friendly with someone, much less being romantic, so he's gonna be... Awkward at times

♡ He probably talks about you really highly, but he does so in the same sort of condescending way he does about himself

♡ Like "[NAME] IS SO MUCH BETTER AT THIS THAN YOU!!! JUST GIVE UP, YOU'LL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS THEM!!!"

♡ He gets flustered really easily, so even something as small as holding hands in front of people is enough to have him refusing to make eye contact with you or anyone else in the room

♡ That said, PDA is usually a no-go unless it is something small like that. Being affectionate in front of other people is embarassing for him...

♡ Immediately on the opposite end of that, though, he's touch starved!

♡ Once you're behind closed doors he'll be a lot more open to affection

♡ He's actually very cuddly, but he's also very stubborn about it

♡ He doesn't like initiating because that means directly asking you for affection in most cases, so sometimes you'll just catch him staring at you with rosy cheeks and have to figure out what he wants from there

♡ On the occasion he does put aside his own pride long enough to ask he'll always yell about how he hates being cold or something, literally anything not to admit he just likes your touch

♡ He prefers positions where you can both wrap your arms around each other, but he doesn't really mind as long as you two are close together!

♡ Onto something completely unrelated, you have to stop him from fighting people a lot

♡ You've become the individual the other toons go to whenever Shrimpo's about to try and beat someone

♡ You always have to grab him and drag him away from whatever confrontation he's in to go calm him down. He'll struggle around and grumble at you the whole time, but he won't try to get away when you let him go...

♡ Everyone is confused as to how you can keep him pacified; You're the only one who's been able to do so without sustaining some variety of injury

♡ You're also usually the one to tend to any cuts or bruises he sustained during the altercation. If you didn't know how to dress a wound before, you're about to learn!

♡ Shrimpo really loves you, even though he's bad at showing it sometimes. He's really trying, please be patient with him!

"...I HATE BEING COLD."

You blinked, looking up from what you had been doing to be met with the flushed frowning face of your partner.

Shrimpo glared at you, though his eyes held no malice; If anything, there was something expectant in them.

You stared back, searching through your brain for what possibly he could want. Seconds passed with nothing but silence between you two, and from an outside perspective, one could easily assume you two were locked in a standoff.

It clicked after a bit. He wanted to cuddle!

You asked him as such with a smile, offering him a seat beside you.

He grumbled something you couldn't make out as he moved to slide in next to you. He didn't object when you wrapped your arms around him, nor did he when you gently pulled him against you.

He sat there for a moment, content to simply bask in your warmth, before slowly returning your embrace.

His grip was tight, just enough so to be secure but not uncomfortable.

...You weren't going anywhere for a while. You didn't mind though. You were happy in each others' arms, even though one of you probably wouldn't ever admit that.

You mumbled out an "I love you" which was met with a huff and a "I HATE HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU TOO."

With that, you both fell into a comfortable silence, which would soon become snores as you drifted off to sleep.

He wasn't cold anymore.

Toon!Reader!

This took me more than a week and it's not even that long!? Also I'm working on a new format hope you like it. I seriously love Shrimpo like this is no joke gulps😣

You stood still in shock, shivering in place while listening to the laughter of the toons who had done this to you: Glisten and Tisha.

You never were able to figure out what went wrong between you and Glisten. For whatever reason, he just never liked you. Soon enough, he had roped Tisha into his sick little games with you too. That brings you to where you are now, your walk back to your room from Brightney's book club having been interrupted by Glisten, an empty bucket, and a sick joke.

"Sorry," he sneered at you, "You looked like you could've used a shower. I thought you liked cold water," Tisha laughed along side him.

You didn't exactly have the best day today. All you had for breakfast today were cold eggs and a single piece of burnt toast, Sprout had snapped at you for accidentally getting Cosmo cut by grabbing his attention while he was using scizzors, you had fallen off a ladder while putting some books back in the library and hit your head too hard for your liking, and now having been splashed with freezing cold water. Frustrated with the events of today, you could feel your emotions coming up, up, up, until you felt your eyes sting and hot tears poured down your face, your shoulders bouncing with your hiccups.

Glisten and Tisha's mouths formed into wide grins, "Awe, are you crying? Don't be so dramatic," Mocked Glisten.

"God, just-" you sniffled, "leave me alone!" Running to your room, you slipped and nearly fell if only you hadn't grabbed your doorknob to pull yourself up and locked your door tight once inside. You slid down against the door until you were sitting and hugged your knees close to your chest and cried for a bit, still shivering. Just a few seconds later you finally registered that you were freezing. You sloppily wiped away your tears and the water, the majority of your face still soaked however, and got a fluffy towel out of a drawer and stripped out of your soaked clothes to scrub yourself dry and then changed into some comfy clothes. You hugged yourself with a small smile, already feeling a bit better.

You violently jumped in place when incredibly loud, violent banging came from your door. You turned to the noise with a pout,

"Go away, Glisten!" Came your sullen voice. "I already told you to leave me alone." All you wanted to do was curl up under the covers of your bed and sleep until tomorrow came.

You heard a growl of frustration from behind the door before a familiar voice spoke, "Glisten doesn't bang on doors, idiot!" You blinked one, twice, at the door in surprise. What would Shrimpo want with you at this time? Internally, you dreaded the idea that Glisten had gotten him to pick on you with himself and Tisha and that did not want to make you open the door. But, you figured you might as well see what he wants, maybe that would make him go away faster. With a defeated sigh you unlocked your door and cracked it open so you could poke your head out.

Behind your doorway stood Shrimpo with his arms crossed over his chest, looking at you with a sharp glare. Your relationship with Shrimpo had been a bit of an enigma for a long while now, he always said he hated you and whatever you did, just like he did with all the other toons, but after a while he seemed to get the slightest bit less bothered by your existence. Sure you were nice to him, always wishing him a goodmorning or a good day or a goodnight with a warm smile, and you never really saw him in any bad light despite his short temper and frequent dendencies to be both narcisisstic and a bully, but that was just the good samaratin within you. However, deep down you wanted someone to truly call a friend. Every toon in Gardenview had someone to call a friend, however nobody seemed to deem you worthy of that title.

You did know that the same could be said for Shrimpo, however for more obvious reasons. Truly, you hoped that one day the two of you could be friends. Although, as of recently, you would be lying if you said you didn't like him more than as a potential friend. More than once you had caught yourself thinking of how cute he was.

"What is wrong with you?!" Shrimpo shouted, and you whinced a little. "I hate hearing you cry!"

You blinked, "oh," your voice was small, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you, Shrimpo." Shrimpo's room was next to yours, you wondered if he could hear you cry at night whenever your feelings overwhelmed you. "It's- It's nothing, really." While slinking back inside, an orange hand forced your door back open.

"I hate secrets! Tell me what happened, now!" He demanded.

You swallowed a lump in your throat, "I... Glisten, uh, threw some water on me. But, I'm fine now!" You smiled, yet you knew he could see through your thinly veiled façade, "really..." You could hear Shrimpo's throat rasp in a growl. "Have a good night, Shrimpo."

Your back pressed against the door with a yawn, and you heard Shrimpo stomp off. You let out a tired hum and dove under the soft covers of your bed and snuggled against a pillow before closing your eyes. Only a few minutes later you awoke to the sound of glass shattering and muffled yelling and cussing and other chatter. You got up, rubbing your eyes, and left the comfort of your room to investigate the noise.

You stopped only a few steps into the hallway leading to the kitchen. Surrounded by half of the other toons was Shrimpo beating up Glisten, and you could see Tisha to the side was targeted as well. Was he doing this because of what Glisten had done to you earlier? The thought made your heart thump a little faster and your face flush with a soothing warmth no blanket or jacket could ever offer.

"Shrimpo!" However, you couldn't just let this happen. "Shrimpo, stop!" Glisten was bleeding, blood stained the wooden flooring, the liquid coated his attacker's fists. Glisten was terrified, and Shrimpo was not relenting at all. "Please, that's enough, Shrimpo!" He could have killed him.

You had to physically drag the crustacean away from Glisten, and as soon as you did the others flocked around the flashy toon concerned and loud. As you looked at Shrimpo's face, you could see that he wasn't unscathed from this encounter, as he had cuts and some bruising around his face and arms. You also noticed how his seething expression in the fight softened to a more tame angry one once you got him away from it.

"Come on," you spoke, your arms wrapped around one of his, "I can take care of your wounds." You would much rather deal with light scratches and bruising rather than deep gashes that bled profusely. Your heart was pounding from having taken in such a gruesome sight, yet also because the one who caused it was allowing you to touch him and bring him to your room.

Closing your door and flicking the light switch on, you prompted Shrimpo to sit at the edge of your bed while you got a spare med-kit from a drawer in your bathroom. You quickly returned to your main room and sat next to Shrimpo, who looked at the floor with a softer expression that seemed more annoyed than angry. You coated a cotton ball in antibacterial alcohol and turned to the crustacean,

"Can you look at me, please? I'd like to clean your wounds," you said. He complied after a moment more of staring down your floorboards and turned his head to look at you. With a gentle hand you cupped the side of his face, "this will hurt a bit," and you softly dabbed the wet cotton ball at an open cut, earning a hiss of pain from the toon. "Shh, shh, shh, it's okay. It's okay." You couldn't help but comfort him despite the little damage he had taken. "You're gonna be okay." He had earned it, you think.

Finishing up on his face, you moved down to dab the alcohol over the cuts and bruises on his arms. With this, you failed to notice how red in the face Shrimpo was.

"Shrimpo," your voice was soft, "why did you... beat up Glisten?" You discarded the cotton ball and reapplied the alcohol onto another and dabbed the cool liquid over a mean bruise.

"Because I hate him!" You expected that answer. "I hate his face! He's always so mean to you and you never stick up for yourself! I really hate that about you!"

The cotton ball dabbing against his knuckles came to a hault, and you moved your head to look at him,

"You were... sticking up for me?" You asked, genuinely surprised.

Shrimpo's eyes widened after landing on your face and he looked away at your floorboards, his face looking reminescent of a tomato, "W-Well, of course I was!" His voice lost its personally unique angry and loud tone as he further went on, "of course I would- do- uh, I mean- I would-!!!" He promplty shut himself up.

You smiled at him, awfully flattered and sharply aware of your increased heartbeat. "How sweet of you, Shrimpo." You leaned forward and pressed a sweet kiss on his cheek. The toon stilled in response while you moved to return to cleaning his knuckles, you were pretty sure he stopped breathing for a bit too. You hummed while putting away your supplies back in the med-kit, going to your bathroom to return the med-kit and discard of the dirty cotton balls.

Your feet padded against the floor before stopping by the end of your bed next to Shrimpo who sat stiff as a board and still studied every atom of your floorboards, "It's very late, so I don't want to keep you," you informed, yet the other toon made no effort to move. "Oh, wait!" A lightbulb came into your mind, "Astro's hosting a sleepover tonight!" Your voice turned somber, "but, he forgot to invite us, again..." Being sleepy all the time could lead to forgetfulness, you knew. But you weren't stupid, you knew that he hadn't forgotten to invite you and Shrimpo.

A smile crept onto your features and your eyes locked onto the toon beside you, "hey, Shrimpo, why don't we have our own sleepover?"

Said toon shot his head up to you, burning with anger, "I hate that you want to do something with me!" He exclaimed. You tilted your head as he went on, "and I hate that I really really want to, as well!"

Instantaneously, your face lit up with a bright smile. "Really? I'm so glad!" You slept better having someone beside you and knowing you weren't alone, anyway. You flicked the light switch off and opened the covers of your bed after sliding to one side, patting the open space beside you. Shrimpo plopped himself down beside you with a small huff and got comfortable on his side, closing his eyes. He even slept with an angry face. Too cute!

"I'm still awake!!!" Had you said that out loud? That totally wouldn't haunt you till your final moments. Swiftly you got comfortable on your side, facing away from Shrimpo.

"Um, goodnight, Shrimpo." You heard him mutter angry nothings to himself before quieting down again. Just as you were beggining to feel sleep take you for the night, arms wrapped firmly around your middle and a face pressed against your back. You sluggishly moved a hand over one of his with a sleepy smile. You should have sleepovers more often.

If you notice any mistakes, feel free to let me know. Hope you enjoyed!

ORDER : Arts and crafts

Your aren't one of the craft twins (DEPENDING) but you like arts and crafts !

its your favorite hobby.

But you know what else is your favorite ?

The shrimpiest of shrimps. SHRIMPO !!! (⁠☆⁠▽⁠☆⁠)

You both are . . Kinda friends ? So you decided to ask him if he wanted to do arts and crafts with you !

" Shrimpo ! There you are :D i've been looking everywhere for you. Even through the holes in your walls. " you say, Shrimpo knows your joking about the last part but if you actually did : he wouldn't be suprised at all.

" WHAT DO YOU WANT. " You tried getting closer to him, like Finn for example. And you succeeded, its just that he still often screams a lot. But at least your kinda there, He doesn't exactly just let people talk to him without him turning it into an argument just because he ' feels like it '.

" thank you for asking, Can you do arts and crafts with me ? I dont wanna always be alone while making . . I dont know, a origami frog ? "

" WHY. "

" because i want you to go with me and i love arts and crafts ? ? Im offended you asked. " You joke, faking offense at the last part.

" . . FINE. " no way its that easy. no way. You think, being suspicious of how quick he accepted. But nonetheless, you were excited and practically dragged him to the place you put all the supplies for making stuff in.

Also, wouldn't he normally say ' I HATE ARTS AND CRAFTS ' or something like that ? Suspicious . . . . (⁠･ั⁠ω⁠･ั⁠)

Once you brought him to the table. You grabbed like- 6 sheets of paper.

6 sheets because you know he was gonna rage while drawing and crumple it.

you are prepared for war (⁠ㆁ⁠ω⁠ㆁ⁠)

anywho. You ask him to draw something, and you give him a pencil.

" Shrimpo. This is the most focused you have EVER been for a drawing. " true. When has he ever had focus on drawing or even drawn before. I mean. Maybe he does, but you just never see him do it.

After he finishes the drawing, he shows you. his face kinda flushed, Its a drawing of you ! Kinda sweet. Wait. EVEN MORE SUSPICIOUS, WHY WOULD HE DRAW YOU. Even Rodger wouldn't crack this case 🙀

" IT LOOKS AS UGLY AS YOU. " he says. Yeah, you can't exactly just believe thats what hes thinking when hes flushed, gaze to the side, and the drawing looking exactly like you when the whole time he was drawing, he didn't even look at you.

so its safe to say, This shrimp likes you.

very very very obvious and very safe to say.

shrimpo x reader who matches his energy possibly...

Ofc, I haven’t written for dandy’s world yet so sorry if this is ooc at all!! <3

Prompt: Headcanons(can be read as platonic or romantic)

Characters: Shrimpo

Pronouns: GN reader

Shrimpo and you butt heads a lot literally. Brawls aren’t new for you two, most of the other toons swear you two are actually trying to kill one another. However behind the scenes, yes Shrimpo still hates everyone…but…he tolerates you. When you two argue alone it normally ends in “SHRIMPO HATES YOU….AND NEVER WANTS TO SEE YOU AGAIN!!!” Then about 5 minutes later he comes back in asking if you wanna watch TV with him. He never really means that he hates you. He doesn’t…he thinks? Shrimpo just knows he hates you a little less than everyone else! He loves watching shitty reality TV with you, or Hell’s Kitchen. He likes making fun of the people in them with you. One of the only times he’s ever really smiled. DONT TELL ANYONE ABOUT IT THO!!! Got his though guy persona to keep in tacked! You two bounce of each other well, similar tempers, similar personalities, everyone thinks you two despise each other, when you don’t! Two peas in a pod!

I hope this is okay!!

[donutz]

Shrimpo confession + Headcanons!!

You might not read this bcus its Shrimpo, but like... He's adorable..

— Shrimpo warms up to you, suddenly not hating burgers anymore..

Warnings: Bright colors; That's all I think

^^This is you(If you'd like to look that way)

"Does this mean I'm a girl?!" No, if you remove the eyelashes

It's kinda wonky but I did my best ^_^

☆Intro☆

When you two met, you were a newbie. A lot of the toons surrounded you, wanting to see who you were.

Of course, you were shy. There’s 17 different toons looking at you. One of them is looking at you with a frown.

“I HATE BURGERS!!”

You jumped a little, because of his sudden abrupt voice.

"That's Shrimpo."

“He’s kinda mean.”

“Kinda is an understatement. Also it’s kind of, not kinda.”

“Potato potato Rodger.”

After Shrimpo’s hateful statement, you just stared. You two made eye contact, and he looked away first! So you won!

You smiled at him, and he looked away again.

A day after that, you thought—

‘Maybe Shrimpo could be my friend?’

You hung out with Shrimpo, a lot. He couldn’t understand why you weren’t going away.

Why don’t you hate him like everybody else?

As days passed, he tolerated your presence more and more. Like not yelling at you as much. Somehow managing to be less of a hater, and him continuously losing ‘staring contests’.

You could convince him to do arts and crafts. Convince him to hang with the other toons, convince him to not bang his head on the machines. Say, why does he do that?

“... I DON’T… Know..”

Oh okay.

The other toons noticed obviously! Have you seen how calm Shrimpo was around them? Only when you’re around though. When you’re gone it seems like he’s more angry compared to before meeting you.

Dandy was walking around, looking for you and Shrimpo.

"Shrimpo!!"

He was walking around, with his hands on his hips.

‘Where did those gremlins go?’

He looked into a smaller room, seeing you.

'Oh!'

You were facing Shrimpo, the both of you sitting on your legs. With you holding his hands.

“Why.. Do you like me so much?”

“Well, it’s just that I was hoping for you to not hate me. So it resulted in me hanging out with you a lot. Then the more I hung out with you the more I started to like you.”

“It led to love, I guess. The other toons might not like you but I do. I like you a lot actually.”

Looking up from his hands, you two make eye contact.

“I love you, Shrimpo.”

You heard a gasp, but it wasn’t Shrimpo’s.

Sensing who it was, you got up, walking over to…

“Dandy!”

"Hey you..!! The toons sent me to look for you guys!" (That’s a lie, he did it himself)

“Oh wow really! That’s nice, it’d be more nice if you left!”

"... Yeah alright, just meet up with us in less than five alright?"

“Mhm.”

Dandy walked away. Mainly happy because his theories are right, you two do love each other! He thinks…

You turn around, looking for Shrimpo.

“Shrimpo?”

You could see his little feet hiding behind the wall.

“Aww, silly.”

You came back to him, holding his hands once more. There he was, red as ever.

You’d think that if he got any more red he’d cook himself.

“So..? Do you love me back?”

“...YES. LET’S GO” 

He quickly got up and dragged you over to where the rest of the toons were.

Headcanons—!!

Yells at everybody, except you

Of course he still yells at you, but not as much when it comes to the others

He’s actually started to stop banging his head on the machines, or tries to

You’re very important to him, just your presence can calm him down

That’s one of the reasons Dandy suspected he liked you

Because of how calm Shrimpo was acting around you

All of a sudden he likes burgers.. I wonder why..

Minus burgers, if you’re any type of thing, food, anything really, he’ll like whatever visible trait you have

Like if you were a tape type of character then he would suddenly like tape

PDA is a no no, it’s not like an ego thing or like embarrassment thing(That’s another lie, he gets really embarrassed) he just feels off about public displays of affection

He gets pretty cuddly in private, probably the little spoon, but wouldn’t mind switching it

He’s soft around you

It took some time to get him to smile, it happened when you gave him multiple kisses on his face

He was slightly functioning, then blinked away his non functioning self

Before he knew it, he was smiling

You quickly took a picture

Surprisingly, for the rest of the day he was smiling more, not in front of the toons, but just in front of you

He was really clingy too, he hadn’t realized that those kisses were all he needed to be happy and smiling for a day

It’s hard for him to communicate his feelings, you really gotta reel it out of him

He’s very vulnerable in that moment, so try to not make any jokes or else he’ll be mad at you for the rest of the day

One little giggle and he’s out!! Is what he says

Your first kiss was adorable, it was on his birthday!!

Publicly and sneakily!!

He was trying SO HARD to not blush

He started shaking

I don't even care for Shrimpo that much

[whyareyoulookingatmelikethat]

[15]: Seafood Sickness

Requested by KarmaSolver on AO3! Thank you soooo much for requesting! :D Sorry this was late...

Double whammy today! Thank you @vliveshere for motivation.

“Y/n!”

You quickly swiveled your head to look around for the source of the voice.

“Y/N!”

The voice sounded urgent, panicked, even. You were spinning in circles trying to find wherever it came from though.

“Y/N!”

You were nearly stumbling at this point because you were so dizzy. Suddenly, someone slammed a hand on the outside of the archway, startling you. It looked…blue- is that Tisha?

“Y-Y/n! Please come quickly! Shrimpo-”

She huffed and panted, trying to catch her breath and still muster out the words, but you already knew what she was going to say.

You groaned and raked your nails down your face, speed-walking over to her and leading her to a chair. She let out quiet huffs as she sat down.

“I’ll go get him…” you sighed, jogging out of the room.

It wasn’t hard to find him, anyone could hear his screaming voice from anywhere. You winced as the yelling grew louder with each step you took, the sound grating on your ears. You swear you’re going to go deaf one day…

You turned the corner to see a very angry Shrimp attempting to bite Vee, who held him tightly as he struggled to get out, swiping at Finn who snickered a few feet away. Must’ve been more jokes…Sprout was facepalming, Rodger was rolling his one eye, Glisten was cringing in disgust, Boxten was worried, etc.

You let out a sigh as Finn cracked another joke about how mad Shrimpo was, and in return Shrimpo screeched and scratched at Vee’s arns, damaging the metal. She told Finn he was lucky she wasn’t super mad right now. Alright, you've seen enough.

“Shrimpo! What is going on now!?”

Everyone looked towards your direction, little bits of relief visible in their eyes. Shrimpo whipped his head towards you, his movements stilling if only for a moment, before coming back full force. Vee yelled out in anger and let Shrimpo go, the former lunging at Finn and tackling him with a hiss.

While Vee examined her arms and cringed at the damage, you grabbed Shrimpo by the back of his shirt and yanked him off Finn, dragging him across the floor to who knows where. You pointedly ignored his complaining and instead focused on getting him away from the other toons so he could calm down.

Shrimpo scratched at his shirt, trying to reach you, but the odd angle made it impossible for him to stretch past his clothes. He stopped struggling eventually, huffing loudly, and constantly as he was pulled back around the corner.

Once you were far enough away, you dropped him, before pulling him up by the neckline of his shirt to face you.

“What have I said about being aggressive with the others?”

He glared at you, but you stared at him with gray and hollow eyes, effectively making him shrink up, although reluctantly.

“...To not.”

“Correct. And what did you do just now?”

He gritted his teeth, embarrassed, and looked away from your piercing gaze.

“Got aggressive with the others…”

“Exactly. Now don’t do it again today.”

You set him down again, letting him stand up and brush himself off. He knew this was “for his own good”, but it didn’t make it any easier. Old habits, especially ones done your whole life, are hard to break.

He’d get there, eventually.

The two of you couldn’t be any more different, and it’s honestly shocking to everyone else how you managed to get along in the first place. Shrimpo hates just about everything, and he makes sure nobody forgets it. Meanwhile, you’re the complete total opposite! Either you like everything, or you’re at least filled with curiosity about it. Then there’s Shrimpo, lacking your energy, preferring to ignore anything he doesn’t think is worth his time.

Yet thanks to the soft spot you worked so hard to earn, Shrimpo would begrudgingly ease up and join you in your little hobbies. Baking? He hates baking! …But if you really insist, he’ll give it a shot, “just don’t expect it’ll turn out any good!”

And the surprising part is that when Shrimpo actually puts in the effort (thanks to your wonderful motivation), he turns out to be a pretty good baker! During those quiet moments when it’s just the two of you alone, whether it’s painting together or some other creative crafts activity, you can’t help but notice that Shrimpo has a knack for art when he’s comfortable and willing to try. Beneath all the constant criticism lies a hidden talent only you could bring out.

But do keep in mind that if something goes wrong, Shrimpo might freeze up and start doubting himself, diving into a rant about how stupid he was for even trying. But you’re always quick to brighten his mood with your upbeat reassurance, easing his nerves before his frustration boils over and he gives up.

Shrimpo doesn’t ignore your slightly odd demeanor, which might come off as a bit off-putting to some other Toons. Sure, your positivity is contagious and appreciated by everyone— there’s hardly a Toon who doesn’t like you! But you can be a little bit… scatterbrained. Your outlandish ideas, while good-intentioned, aren’t always the most convenient solutions to others’ problems. At first, Shrimpo found it hilarious, assuming you were purposefully trying to throw the other Toons into chaos. But when he realized you were just being yourself, which was only shortly after your confession, it unexpectedly became something he found quite endearing, not that he’d ever admit it though.

Your relationship is kinda like an equal balance of sun and moon! Your unyielding optimism contrasts with Shrimpo’s straightforward honesty, which helps ground you when your boundless energy starts to feel overwhelming. At the same time, you’re always there to help him out of his shell and motivate him to give things a try.

Can I request headcanons for shrimpo x reader please?

I tried my best with this one! he's a dumby shrimp You can read this either platonically or romantically, I tried to tailor it to fit both perspectives, enjoy!

—As we all know, this little shrimp hates EVERYONE, so it’s no surprise that your first conversations mostly involve him ranting about everything he dislikes about you.

—Over time (after you’ve spent a lot of time following him), he might start to tolerate your presence.

—He’s pretty much bipolar most of the time, often contradicting himself when he says he hates or dislikes your company.

—He’s too embarrassed to admit it, but he’s learned quite a few things about friendships from you.

—It goes without saying, but he has serious anger issues.

—He sometimes gets jealous when he sees you spending more time with other Toons.

—Fear of abandonment, maybe? /hj

—He absolutely hates talking about his thoughts or feelings, refusing to let anyone see his vulnerable and completely opposite side.

—When it comes to showing affection, his way is simply spending time with you.

—You had to buy him a stress toy, but they all end up broken.

—He’s terrible at physical affection—his hugs feel like he’s trying to strangle you.

—Let’s say his anger levels drop from 100% to 90% when he’s around you.

—Not much else to say about him; he tries really hard to control his temper with you, but… his anger and hatred toward anything that breathes is a tough habit to break.

Poly beautifulangrybowl x reader

warnings: none but pure fluff

shrimpo (surprisingly) has a very subtle soft side for you three.

glisten does makeup “tests” on you guys (he likes to see your faces all dolled up and he compliments the three of you just to see your flustered reaction).

finn gives fish petnames like bubbles, gold fish, lucky rod, goldie, etc.

glistens gives basic petnames like darling (his favorite one), beautiful, angel, baby, babe is only on rare occasions.

all three of them are really clingy, sometimes you see 2 or all of them cuddled up together in one of their rooms.

everybody knows about your guys relationship, some people wondered how the two of you (glisten and you) can handle finn and/or shrimpo.

if glisten (or finn) sees one of you for even a split second, he’s speed walking (or running) to give you a kiss.

shrimpo will just call the three of you by your names or just idiot.

shrimpo can and WILL fight (or argue) whoever walks in and disturbs y’all cuddling sessions and beauty sleep.

if you, shrimpo, or finn don’t talk like you guys usually do daily, glisten KNOWS something is wrong and will check up on that person. he will ignore whoever who needs him for something and stay by his partners side.

finn will immediately stop with the fish jokes if one you is having a gloomy day, and will wait patiently on what’s making his partner sad while hugging (or cuddling) them

shrimpo doesn’t exactly know what to do whenever someone’s having a bad day, but his words are quite obnoxiously comforting. “I HATE WHEN YOUR SAD!” “AND I HATE WHEN YOU DONT TELL ME WHATS WRONG!”. will wait patiently while resting his head on your shoulder or he hugs you tightly (only if his lovers ask of course)

physical touch is a MUST in the relationship

finn will try to stop with the fish jokes (he can’t help)

shrimpo says he hates kisses, cuddles, hugs, or anything that involves touchy things. he doesn’t say anything when one of his lovers do those things

glisten makes beauty face masks when you all don’t have anything to do

you or glisten are the ones who initiate cuddle piles

shrimpo once got so embarrassed and red, when you picked him up bridal style to save him from twisteds, he almost didn’t talk to you for a whole day

finn yaps about fishes at random times

you got injured so bad one time, your partners immediately dropped whatever they were holding and ran as fast they could to you

twisted hc’s and angst hc’s will be in part 2 (which is coming soon) :3

i love poly dw ships sm.

[the-s1lly-corner]

Calling them pretty boy 3/3

PART 3 WOO YEAH

I. thINK this is all the male toons! If I've forgotten anyone let me know TToTT there's so many characters

Running in to add RUDIE I ALMOST FORGOT RUDIE IM SORRY DEER BOY

The girls are getting their own parts soon-- maybe not directly after this but I'll definitely try

Characters: shrimpo, razzle & dazzle, sprout, dandy, rudie

Notes: gn reader, toon reader, can be read as pre or post game, short post, admin may get razzle n dazzle mixed up bare with him, written on mobile. I think in the future I'll just give the mains their own post so the third part isn't long compared to the other 2

CWs: none

SHRIMPO

He kind of just stares at you for a second, audibly grumbling to himself as he stares right into your soul

...hes... always a hard one to read- you can't really tell if he likes it or not- you can see hid tail kind of. Tense up too

"IM HATE BEING PRETTY!" And he just. Storms off into a huff. Ignore the faint crack in his voice

(He's so tsundere coded/hj)

RAZZLE N DAZZLE

Razzle takes it in stride and brightens up over it... dazzle on the other hand may think you're teasing him until you insist you aren't- afterall you've never called them pretty boy before..!

Dazzle doesn't smile that often but you get one from him from the sudden comment, it's faint but it's still there. He kind of.. stares at the floor and thinks over your words

Razzle is going to adopt that name and will (lightheartedly) give you flack for not calling tjem that again

SPROUT

Oh you're so sweet...! Pretty boy isn't exactly his first choice but he's not going to shut you down, it's simply... different!

You're not too bad looking yourself, and he's going to let you know that! He's got a talent for turning things right back onto you casually

If you say it while he's piping he WILL mess up the frosting :(

DANDY

Takes it in stride, hardly shoes any surprise on his face when you call him pretty boy

Sly grin with a smile, oh you cheeky little..! Did you really think he was going to let you get away with this Scott free?

Oh nononono! You've opened the floodgates! You've given him an invitation to try to fluster you right back and trust me he's not going to pull any punches with his affectionate name calling

RUDIE

Nose? Glowing. Ears? Perked. Tail? Wagging. Ooooooh he loves it! Actually he loves every little name you give him, so it's not much of a surprise that he loves this one too!

Will call you pretty in return with no hesitation, in fact he makes it a point to call you pretty more often!

Definitely thinks about it all week, he's the type to kick his feet in the air in bed

♡ How did you- How did you manage this??

♡ Two of the most volatile twisteds, and you're all in a relationship with each other-?!!

♡ Well, either way, you're in it now! Have fun!

♡ Shrimpo's basically a guard dog. He's very protective and will literally growl at anything he percieves as a threat

♡ Which is... A lot of things. He's somehow gotten even more angry because of being turned, and it's resulted in a very thin line between friend and foe for him.

♡ He will and has attacked things that aren't even alive, purely because they looked threatening.

♡ You and Glisten end up having to calm him down a lot...

♡ Which is a feat all its own, because the poor shrimp is almost always enraged thanks to how the ichor's corrupted his mind

♡ Both of them are glued to your side pretty much constantly. In Shrimpo's case, it's because he wants to protect you, and in Glisten's case, he's afraid you won't come back if he lets you out of his sight.

♡ Speaking of, you have to reassure Glisten a lot. He's very insecure about his current state, and there's a constant fear in the back of his mind that you, or worse, both you and Shrimpo will get tired of him and try to leave.

♡ Shrimpo was cuddly before being turned, and even more so now. The ichor's made him a bit more prone towards his base instincts, so there's none of the embarassment that would've stopped him before. He's the same touch-starved shrimp he's always been, despite everything.

♡ Glisten's also physically affectionate, but in the sense of just wanting to be near you and hold hands as you walk together. Being able to touch you and know you're there with him is comforting.

♡ Which sometimes ends up in cuddle piles where you're all snuggled up together in some isolated corner away from everything, away from the machines, away from any other twisteds on the floor...

♡ Glisten loves it. It makes him feel secure, which is rare for him. It's also a chance to see Shrimpo completely pacified for once, which is rare as well.

♡ ...There's ichor all over you. It'd be easy to mistake you for a twisted if it weren't for your eyes still being normal. Both of them have large patches of ichor on them that leak everywhere and get on you whenever you're in close proximity to them.

♡ It doesn't help that both of their hands are constantly covered in the stuff...

♡ You need to get accustomed to the feeling of ichor on you very quickly if you want to be with these two!

♡ Despite their respective current situations, they care for you a lot. Just existing as a twisted can be incredibly painful physically and emotionally, but you help make it just that bit more bearable for them! They appreciate you in their own ways, and they're grateful to have you by their side.

Footsteps echoed off the empty walls of Gardenview, the sound loud in the overwhelming silence that usually filled its hallways.

The source, you and your boyfriend, searched the corridors carefully.

Once again, Shrimpo had gotten aggressive with one of the other twisteds roaming the floor you had been exploring, and ran off after them.

So, as his very caring partners, it was up to you to figure out where he had gone, which had led you deep into the winding passageways of the floor, much deeper than any of you had intended to go.

Glisten held your hand tight, the other hanging limply in front of what remained of his stomach.

His eyes darted around, keeping a careful watch on every little patch of shadow within his range.

You, on the other hand, were trained to look for any flash of that shrimp. It was literally impossible to miss him, considering he was still Shrimpo and essentially allergic to the concept of stealth.

"Oh, [Name]... I don't like this." Glisten spoke softly, worry seeping through his tone. "What if something happened to him? You know how Shrimpo is..."

You turned to look at him, uttering a gentle assurance that your beloved partner would be fine, just like he always was, and that you'd find him soon enough.

He met your eyes, and you two held each others gaze for a moment before he nodded. "Right, yes. He'll be alright. Thank you..."

You offered him a smile, and with that, you set off on your search once again.

You two looked up and down the halls, behind every piece of cover, and even returned to a couple of places you had checked beforehand in the hope he had wandered into them while you were away, yet no such luck.

It was beginning to worry both of you; this was the longest yet it had taken to find him, even on the roomier floors.

Until Glisten paused suddenly. You stopped as well, asking him why he had done so.

"Look," He said, raising his free hand shakily to point. "There's... A trail of ichor..."

You directed your gaze at where he was pointing, met with a long smear of ichor that began a few feet in front of you. It seemed somewhat recent, as you could still see the light shimmering off of its wet surface.

You pointed out that it could have been left by Finn, although you hadn't seen him on this floor up till now, but the mirror simply shook his head. "No, it's too wide to have been left by him... He doesn't seem to be on this floor, either. Which means..."

It may have been left by Shrimpo. You were both thinking it.

You nodded, taking a deep breath before beginning to cautiously follow along the path, lead by the remains of the dark liquid.

It wound through the halls, taking a few turns and seeming to have lightly pooled in some places. You even happened upon the unconscious body of the twisted he had gone after at the start of the floor at one point, the shrimp clearly having beat them until they passed out. Ouch...

The trail tapered out into small droplets left behind from the remnants of the beatdown as it continued, slowly growing less frequent, before finally drying up altogether near the broken elevator.

Letting out a sigh, your gaze fell upon the end of the track, and as you turned to face Glisten, you saw it.

A flash of an ichor-stained shrimp tail.

It was your turn to point now, quickly shouting that you saw Shrimpo before sprinting in the direction you'd caught sight of him, dragging Glisten with you.

There he was. It didn't take long for the shrimp to take notice of you two, your footsteps thudding loudly against the floor as you ran. He appeared mostly unharmed, the only evidence he had attacked someone at all being a few extra splashes of ichor on his shirt.

Glisten sped ahead of you, and it was your turn to be dragged along.

He called the other's name, letting go of your hand to meet him with a tight hug. You caught up soon after, being invited swiftly into both of their embrace.

Shrimpo warbled something you couldn't make out, but what remained of his voice was clearly filled with something like joy.

"Oh, Shrimpo, we were so worried for you..." Whined the mirror, to which you voiced agreement. "Please, stop running off like that!"

The shrimp in question simply let out a huff. Obviously, he thought he was in the right for going after that other twisted earlier... Of course he did. Classic Shrimpo.

He was a lot sometimes, but moments like these where you three were happy and content together made it all worth it.

You love each other, and that's all that matters.

Astro with a reader who sleeps a lot!

Reader x Astro

Warning: none, complete and pure fluff!

————————————

•Astro

The moon toon here also tends to sleep a little more than the others! Whenever he finds you curled up in your room, eyes closed, slow breathing, and just snoozing away. He happily climbs into bed to rest with you, wrapping his bottom arms wrapped around your waist, upper arms lacing his hands with yours.

At first in the relationship he was a little too shy, he’d give a small smile, a kiss on your head, and then would walk out.

he always makes sure that you have good dreams, he would never intentionally want to cause you harm! Emotionally or physically.

Although, he would get concerned sometimes- why do you sleep so much..? Are you not getting enough rest? Do you not feel well? Is something wrong? He would want you to be okay, but if you assure him that it’s just how you are and it’s just kinda a cycle of tiredness!

He calms down after that, no longer too worried but sometimes he’ll carefully shake you awake juuuust to make sure. If you wake up and stay awake he’ll apologize, just reassure him that it’s fine and you don’t mind! Maybe cuddles for extra reassurance?

The only downside to you sleeping all day is.. your a giant night owl, up all night doing whatever- and when it hits sunrise you waddle either to your own room to rest or Astro’s room to snuggle up with him to go back to go to sleep.

Now he didn’t realize this until one day he got woken up by the fire alarm with all the other toons because you and Cosmo set the kitchen aflame- you and the swiss roll had sheepishly apologized after some of the others scolding and Shrimpo’s yelling of ‘I HATE FIRE!’.

Astro had asked you why you were up and you explained to him that this was actually when you were usually awake! And you just didn’t want to ruin Astro’s sleep schedule so he could hang out with you.

The blue moon had blinked in surprise, it was sweet but at the same time- he didn’t mind, he’d like to be able to spend more time with you, and if that costed a little bit if his own sleep schedule? Then he guessed that was the price.

Although, he did try and help you get rest a normal time so it could be a little healthier. He’s willing to stay up with you always, but he is also going to be making sure a little more effort of a sleep schedule is put forth!

“Starshine.. what are you doing..?” Astro’s soft barely above a whisper voice called out, tilting his at you as the grip on his blanket around him loosened.

“I’m making a bracelet! Scraps has been teaching me!” You chirped back, excited and lively despite the (real) moon hanging in the sky.

“Oh..? Could I see?” He asks.

“Not yet, it’s a surprise silly” you giggled back.

“A surprise? For who..?” Astro hummed.

Turning around, you waddled closer to your boyfriend, you had put the last finishing touches on it. It was a pretty beaded bracelet with a mix of blues and purples, as well as the occasional pale yellow bead added with a moon charm that had a hanging heart attached!

“For you! I had asked scraps to teach me how to make bracelets so I could make you one..” you squeaked, bashful. Holding the bracelet out to him so he could take it.

He blinks in surprise.. you made this for.. him? His cheeks heated into a pretty sapphire blue, making his starry freckles glow softly, he looked like he had the night sky on his cheeks! It made you melt slightly inside, your own face feeling hot and your heart beating faster at how star-struck he looked.

“You.. made this? ..for me?” He whispered, carefully taking the beaded bracelet holding it like it was glass instead or plastic. He looked down at it taking every detail in, his tails wagging much like a dog’s would but that was a really rare sight for him!

“Well.. yeah! It’s to let you know how much I love you! And even though I sleep a lot that doesn’t mean your any less important to me, I love you so much I’d be fine if the sun never came out again if it means I get to keep you here with me!” You tell him, it was a little cheesy yes.. but it was how you felt!

“..I love you to starlight..” he whispered back, gently slipping the bracelet on and walking towards you to embrace you tightly, he smelled like vanilla and he oddly cool to the touch but you wouldn’t have it any other way as you wrapped your arms around him as well.

“I love you Astro.”

“I’ll love you forever my moonlight.. until the stars stop shining and even more after that..” he whispered back, gently squeezing you as he burst his face into your head.

—————————————————————

This was a little self indulgent- I do love the moon boy a lot tho <33

[m00nst4rd0ll]

ORDER : Poor taste

Sweet.

You are undoubtedly a sweet person, really.

There isn't anything you have done that people can deem rude or just generally not polite.

But . . The problem with you is uh.

Your taste in toons. Such as Shrimpo, no one knows why or how you like him

Not even he himself knows. But in the bottom of his darkened heart, he can't help but feel the same.

One day, in the Toon rooms lobby, you were walking around. You weren't finding anything or anyone in particular, you just wish to converse with someone if you find a person who's willing to. And you found just who you wanted to see after so long of him ignoring you.

" Shrimpo ! Hello, it's wonderful to see you in such a day like this. I was thinking we would never see eachother again ! " You say, showing that smile everyone has seen. But Shrimpo has seen it the most out of anyone. He looks at you with a gaze you can't exactly read, is it hate or is it something new ?

" WHAT DO YOU WANT. " (HAH 2ND TIME I'VE MADE HIM SAY THIS) The shrimp makes no sign he wants to talk with you, but your happy he is.

" nothing ! I just wish to talk with you, that's all. Especially because I've noticed you've been ignoring me, why is that ? "

" ITS BECAUSE I HATE YOU. "

" that's . . Unsurprisingly in character. Shrimpo, I won't force you to not hate me. I just wish to ask why you hate me. "

" . . BYE. " He runs away before he even answers or before you could tell him to stop. Surprisingly, this is the fastest you've seen him run ? Oh, he must've got a speed trinket or the devs have to ban him for hacking, we'll never know.

" and he's off again. " You mutter.

Safe to say you'll never get to talk to him AGAIN without him running away.

But you got to speak to him one last time before he ignores you again.

Is this how Shelly feels ? Talking about the shell, you haven't seen her in weeks.

Maybe you'll feel better if you talk to someone.

©m00nst4rd0ll do not repost, copy, translate or modify.

I had to find the dictionary file in my head for this please be proud of me 😿

( HI. UPDATE SO : IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THAT READER AND SHRIMPO DATE. I ACCIDENTALLY FORGOT THAT PART OUT WHILE WRITING THIS. )

[pukefactory]

I LOVELOVELOVELOVE UR WRITING SM!!1! its so scrumptious /pos <33 could i please request shrimpo headcanons with a reader who is the complete opposite of him? they’re very sweet and kind and shrimpo is…shrimpo lmao. tysm if you can! :33

Thank you, anon! I’m glad you enjoy my writings. This is such a cute prompt, and it’s my first time writing Shrimpo, so I hope it meets your expectations!

⁺‧₊˚ ཐི HELPLESS FOOLS ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺

✦ Summary: A compilation of headcannons featuring Shrimpo and an overly sweet reader.

✦ Character(s): Shrimpo (Dandy’s World)

✦ Genre: Headcanons, Fluff, SFW

✦ Warning(s): None - Completely Safe!

♡ It’s probably obvious to say that Shrimpo absolutely despises showing affection and dislikes receiving it even more (or at least that’s what he pretends), but you don’t really give him much of a choice. No matter how often he pushes you away, you always return with the same unwavering determination. Your kindness is just as relentless as his disdain, which makes you two an oddly fitting pair.

♡ Initially, he bullied you more than he did most others, driven by your unwavering kindness toward him. He resorted to his usual antics—yelling, claiming to hate you, and both verbally and physically pushing you away—classic Shrimpo behavior. Despite his efforts to repel you, he soon realized that his usual tactics were ineffective. Reluctantly, he began to tolerate your presence, much to his frustration and your satisfaction.

♡ It’s no surprise that Shrimpo gets hurt frequently—almost daily, in fact. Whether it’s from fighting with other toons or simply stumbling into various accidents, he often ends up covered in bumps, bruises, and small cuts. Fortunately, you’re always there to patch him up. He’ll grumble and yell the entire time, of course, but he reluctantly allows you to apply bandages and bandaids wherever they’re needed. Amusingly, a few days later, he’ll return and demand that you remove them immediately which is likely his way of showing he trusts you with his care.

♡ Whenever you’re at risk of being harmed by a Twisted or any other threat, Shrimpo never hesitates to rush in, scoop you up, and lift you into the air while making a swift retreat. He shouts at you the entire time as he charges toward the nearest safe spot. However, the moment you reward his efforts with a quick kiss on the cheek, his demeanor shifts entirely. His iconic angry expression remains, but now it’s accompanied by a deep scarlet blush as he stomps his feet and marches off in flustered indignation.

♡ When he opts to trade his usual outfit for his Dark Spikes attire, you shower him with affectionate compliments, which quickly tests his patience. He’ll yell at you before storming off, but when you persist, continuing your praise, he’ll metaphorically cover his ears and scrunch his face in frustration, attempting to drown you out by shouting over your words. The only remarks he seems to accept without protest are when you call him “cool” or “awesome.”

♡ Shrimpo regularly creates chaotic messes, tossing and throwing things around for no apparent reason. He usually leaves the mess for the other toons to deal with, who understandably complain the entire time. Except for you, of course. Since he endures your over-the-top kindness so often, he makes an effort not to create too much of a mess when you’re around, just to avoid watching you clean it up with such relentless cheerfulness. However, when he inevitably does make a mess in your presence, he’ll surprisingly pitch in to help. “I’M THE BEST AT CLEANING! WHY ARE YOU EVEN TRYING?!” He’ll shout.

♡ If you attempt to hold his hand, he’ll immediately pull it away and shout that he hates hand-holding and doesn’t want to be touched. However, you persist despite his louder protests and attempts to shake you off. Eventually, he gives up and begrudgingly allows you to hold his hand whenever you like, all while muttering angrily under his breath. Over time, though, he starts grabbing your hand first and declares he hates not holding hands. I suppose that could be considered a victory.

♡ Hugging him was an enormous challenge at first. Whenever you wrapped him in a tight, affectionate hug, he’d scream and thrash like a child mid-tantrum. His relentless flailing made it nearly impossible to hold on, and he always managed to wriggle free within seconds. Did that deter you? Absolutely not! In fact, you started hugging him even more often. While Shrimpo still isn’t a fan of your embraces, he seems to tolerate them when he’s particularly overwhelmed with anger. At least now he has a reliable way to calm down, even if he never says it aloud.

♡ Shrimpo is incredibly picky about his food, despising most dishes and the toons who prepare them. Often, he won’t even consider trying something if he dislikes its appearance or smell. That is, of course, with one exception—your cooking. Initially, he refused to eat anything you made, but after sneaking a bite of the pancakes you prepared when you weren’t looking, he suddenly couldn’t get enough of them. You always decorate them with a whipped cream smiley face and a syrup heart around it. Though he grumbles and eats in a strangely aggressive, messy way, he secretly loves it. He even has a soft spot for the smiley face.

♡ One thing he truly despises is the ironic heart-shaped pattern on the back of his head, but you absolutely adore it. You often tease him about it, calling it adorable while lightly poking and prodding at it as he furiously shakes his head in a futile attempt to make you stop. He’s secretly relieved that you’re always behind him when you do this; he’d be mortified if you saw his flushed, blushing face.
