gn/fem!reader

⋅•⋅⊰∙∘HINATA SHOUYOU∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

-i would head canon him as the experimental type

-he’s kind of just the softie that looks after you a lot even during sex (and especially during sex)

-his aftercare is like the best

-you guys just watch a movie or chill in each other’s arms because it’s comfortable that way

-doesn't like experimenting

-might prefer to keep your sex life private and unlike hinata and kageyama not brag about it

-but the whole team knows of your relationship

-his stamina is just average so usually just a round and a half and he's down and snoring

-aftercare is a must if he isn't that tired

-consists of food, bubble bath, AND TONS OF CUDDLES

-literally an angel

⋅•⋅⊰∙∘TSUKISHIMA KEI∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

-sadist FR.

-he just loves teasing and edging you

-literally when he's helping you with his slim and long ass fingers he stops when he knows you're going to come and goes like

-kEiiiii stappppp plz 🥺

-but when he's not edging you he's just a marshmallow

-but it's not that often he VOLUNTARILY goes to camp (he also wouldn't call you during the potential youth training camp thing)

-down for quickies anywhere

-i feel like he would be into getting caught by both girls and boys because now they know you belong to him and he belongs to you

-sooo yeah <3 ain't he lovely

-his teasing is crazy btw if you hadn't gathered that from the anime that is like "who said you could come, slut?" and "yeah baby, doing well-" it's like two hell and heaven differences

A sorta long post on why I believe Lightbulb SHOULDN’T win season 2 and instead, the other three should be the candidates for winners

Before I start this off, PLEASE DONT BE MEAN TO ME WAUGHHH I’m just respectfully sharing my thoughts as someone who loves writing and I don’t even hate Lightbulb. I just don’t think she would make a good winner to make the story feel satisfied! So this isn’t LB neg, okay? Also keep in mind, I haven’t seen S2 in a hot minute so maybe I might get SOME things wrong but I’ll try my best to go on with my side.

Lightbulb

To start off, I’ll say it, Lightbulb as the possible winner of II S2 will be the most predictable and bland of the four possible contenders. Out of the four, she’s the one who’s managed to get the most out of the show, new friends, enjoyable experiences, a new pet, etc. She also has gotten a lot of screen time ( I think? ) and is a fan favorite for her wackiness n such. Yeah, she’s a little sad her friends are gone but she could always go and be with them if she just quit.

Her friends are waiting for her, honestly I’d say that’s a prize enough For her story, being able to go back and be with her friends, enjoying her time with them without worrying about the game anymore. She’s shown to be distraught with TT leaves, just go and be with your friends to stop being in this game that’s made people way more miserable. She’s got the winner attitude but it’s just. Boring. Predictable. Something that would not be that fun by a story standpoint tbh, at least in my opinion

The other three, I feel would make great winners in their own ways.

Baseball

I’ll start with Baseball, definitely an underdog and a guy nobody expects to win. That’s why he would be a wild card as a possible winner! It would shatter people’s expectations completely, but here’s the twist…If Baseball were to win, it could possible tie back into his story with Nickel. with Baseball probably thinking Nickel would pressure him to share the prize with him and his thoughts of how much of a doormat he’s been for others, Baseball could make his own decision without others influencing him, giving up the prize and giving it to the second place winner, which could be Suitcase or Knife it doesn’t matter.

THAT WOULD BE COOL WOULDN’T IT? Something that ties together Baseballs story thematically eh eh?

Knife

Anyways, Now onto Knife. He’s different from the other three in that, while he hasn’t lost anything like Suitcase or Baseball ( if I remember correctly), unless you count his dignity, he hasn’t gained anything either, unlike Lightbulb. He’s very much a pretty intelligent and strategical person, very much someone who could easily win if it played his cards correctly. There’s also a bit of a lesson he learns from S1 to S2, due to Trophy.

He learns to become less rash, mellowing out after Trophy gave him a bit of a reality check to the way he acts, even if the way he showed him wasn’t the best in the slightest, Knife learns to control his temper, mellowing out and instead uses his smarts to advance more in the game without relying on others and even gives advice to people Like Suitcase, Pickle and Microphone as he goes on.

He learns to be a better person and would honestly make a good contender for first, to reward him for his growth and change, or maybe second place if you want to show his new found humbleness in regards to his emotions

Suitcase

As for suitcase, while she’s sort of predictable as well, she isn’t as predictable as Lightbulb due to the events that she’s gone through and honestly is sort of the most deserving thematically to win out of everyone. Unlike Lightbulb, she’s lost a lot, not really gaining many friends excluding Balloon and gained mental health issues due to the treatment Nickel was giving her. This game has not treated her well in the slightest and she gains growth as time goes on, learning to stand up for herself and speak on her own.

She very much deserves the prize but at the same time, I don’t think she would care if she won or lost. She’s lost a lot and learned from her experiences in the game

Conclusion!

BUT YES. these are my reasons for why Lightbulb should not win. The others have very nice thematic reasons for why they could win but Lightbulb basically gained way WAYY more then they have out of the experience

But yeah, my ranking would go

Lightbulb- not a winner, Fourth place

Baseball - First place ( gives up prize) or Third

Knife - First or Second place

Suitcase - First or Second place too

well it's been almost six months which I think is long enough to break my posting embargo, so, uh: guess what! I got liposuction lol. specifically hip/thigh lipo to quell some pretty wicked dysphoria that stemmed from having such a feminine silhouette… and I have to say I'm really, really pleased with the results.

tbh my initial plan was to keep things under wraps for good which is why I haven't said anything about it yet (and even as I'm typing this up I keep debating whether to post it or trash it)—partly because I was/am worried people might Act Weird about it and partly because I get a little embarrassed talking about bodygendershit in general. but here we are. one reason I do feel compelled to finally share, other than being super happy about how everything went, is that I haven't encountered a lot of discussions about body sculpting as a possible avenue of gender-affirming care (although, to be fair, maybe I just haven't been looking in the right places) and I figured at least one person out there would be interested to learn about what I did and where I've ended up so far.

anyway. pics/details under the cut—nothing even remotely risqué (or yucky), I just know that body image stuff is fraught + not everyone is eager to hear surgery talk.

to be precise: I got tumescent liposuction of the inner and outer thigh, plus this ultrasound thing to help the skin shrink. a different surgeon who I consulted (but ultimately did not go with for a number of reasons) said that even if I got the results I wanted from lipo, which he claimed was unlikely, the affected skin would look loose/baggy/weird forever... and that surgeon was wrong on both counts lol. my elasticity was great bitch!!!!

they didn't take out that much fat overall, only eight pounds or so, but it's way more about the Where than the How Much. my actual surgeon (who kicks ass btw) said lipo isn't that great for weight loss per se, and what it's really good for is sculpting targeted areas—so basically exactly what I did. six months post-op I actually weigh about the same as what I did pre-op, but the distribution has held steady; more weight goes to my stomach now and less, proportionally, goes to my hips since there are fewer fat cells in that area now. so my silhouette retains its new shape!

the overall change is admittedly on the subtle side, since I'm pretty short and have wide hip bones (and you can't change your literal skeleton) but it's still gone a looooooong way. the main thing I requested from my surgeon was "I want to fit in men's pants" and boy did he deliver.

also a good place to note that if you're in the las vegas area looking for a plastic and/or cosmetic surgeon—this guy is board-certified in both btw—then I absolutely have the guy for you. feel free to DM me for details. lipo is clearly his specialty (and it shows!) but he also does a lot of breast revisions/mastopexy (i.e., fixing implants that other surgeons did a bad job putting in), regular implants, and face work (particularly facial feminization surgery). one thing that sold me on this guy was an enthusiastic yelp review from a local stripper who said he hid the incisions for her breast lift in her armpits so none of her clients would notice that she'd had work done... a true master of his craft

okay you've scrolled enough so I'll give you what you're here for lol. I don't have many pre-op pics because I was obviously unhappy with how I looked and was not taking full-body selfies on a regular basis, but here's a few I took ~2 weeks beforehand:

these super thin men's joggers were my go-to dysphoria pants, to the point where I bought five pairs in different colors, but now they're so baggy on me that they have the opposite effect and make it look like I have wider hips than I do. so I retired them from my wardrobe...

...except not immediately because I had to wear compression garments 24/7 for the first three months post-op and these joggers were just loose enough to comfortably wear a medical girdle underneath them at all times, 110° degree temperatures be damned. (not that I was going out much for the first month since I was soooooooooooo fucking bruised and sore lol.) here's a few post-op pics in the same style pants:

(first pic is less than 24 hours post-op, about to go to my follow-up appointment, looking greasy as fuck because I wasn't allowed to shower yet; second pic two days post-op and also post-shower, thankfully; third pic is about a month post-op.)

so, like, CLEAR improvement already. I will not be posting pictures of my black-and-blue-and-swollen-all-over legs but considering how puffy I was from getting internally pummeled with a cannula it's wild that I still saw improvement literally as soon as I came home.

recovery was obviously not a blast in the moment but I got off easy, all things considered. I was supposed to get drains put in and was Not looking forward to that at all lol. the first thing I asked when I woke up after surgery was "how many drains?" because they weren't sure if I'd end up needing two or four, but it turned out the answer was zero. no drains!!!

I did have to lie with my feet elevated for the first two weeks straight, and had major bruising that receded over the first month (you could barely see my regular skin underneath all the mottled spots), but little to no nerve pain, no weird complications, and I was more or less back to normal after six weeks. also noelle took very very good care of me and was brave about injecting me with blood thinners so I wouldn't get clots and die :)

when I went into it I was fully expecting to get huge vertical scars up and down the sides of my legs (and had made peace with it!) but instead I wound up with four tiny incisions like this, each less than two inches long:

what's totally crazy is that the scars are basically Gone now. like even when I'm trying to find them I struggle to locate the ones in the front. I joked to noelle that if someone did an autopsy on me they might not figure out that I'd had cosmetic surgery, especially since the skin on my thighs is back to its normal color and texture. (in this scenario I like to imagine that it's dana scully giving me the autopsy and I'm in an x-files plot where instead of regular lipo I got alien lipo and mulder figures it out purely by accident.)

with lipo it can take up to a year to see the full results but I already feel so much fucking better in my body that seeing old pre-op pics throws me for a loop. and I can absolutely wear men's pants now—pants for short and stocky men, to be fair, but actual regular men's pants and not exclusively Pants For Men With Huge Butts And Legs. which is the only style I could even hope to fit in before. and even then it was a stretch.

big pic dump of shitty mirror selfies taken over the last few months:

:)

(also I really debated sharing this one but I already included it in the yelp review I left my surgeon so fuck it: here's a tasteful before-and-after in my undies where you can see my bare legs for easier comparison. left pic is one week pre-op, right pic is about five months post-op. including it as a link instead of embedding it in the post in case your boss happens to be reading over your shoulder at this very moment. also this is the one and only time you will ever see me stripped down on tumblr dot com so don't get used to it lol.)

M. List

Going Shopping With Some Genshin Characters:

Includes: Childe, Thoma, Albedo, Venti

A/N: Apologies for not writing in a while! Writers block has been a jerk and some personal issues have been going on. Anyway, i hope you're all well!

_____________________________________________

Childe:

Childe is one of those people who just puts anything in the cart

If he starts to notice you catching on and putting things back, he'll try and be a bit more sneaky with it

While this primarily happens during grocery shopping, there's a chance that it can occur when you're shopping in a mall or something of the sort

He always says that it's not a big worry since he has enough money to pay for everything, but it does get annoying when he puts something in the cart that you already have plenty of at home

Outside of that, he can be pretty helpful when it comes to selecting the best brands and all that

I feel like he would be decently knowledgeable about things concerning brands and which products are the best

I also feel like he would also make jokes the entire time to keep the mood light and can be pretty funny when he wants to be

In the end he can be difficult to shop with but he does have his moments that make it worth it

Thoma:

Thoma is more helpful than anything tbh

I feel like he would be one of those people who would go around the house and make a list of whats needed

That doesn't mean that he won't get some things that weren't listed though

I also feel as though he would go for brands that he knows well rather than something new, but if he sees and/or hears good reviews of it he'll consider giving it a try, especially if you endorse it

He also probably sets a budget of how much he's willing to spend for either the entire list or possibly just something on the list

That kind of ties into the different branding situation that i mentioned before

He's another one to make jokes, but doesn't do it the entire time

His jokes are usually funny but he does have his days

Overall it's a pleasure to shop with him since he rarely causes problems

Albedo:

Much like Thoma, Albedo would make a list of things that either one of you need

Only problem is that he doesn't go around the house and look, but instead opts to go off of memory which can cause you two to forget some things

He doesn't set a budget per say, but does know when something is priced too high

I feel like he would only sneak something in the cart if he thought either one of you would like it or suddenly remembered that you needed that item

Either that or he found it interesting and wanted to try it out

Albedo can be pretty quiet, which makes you wonder if he's still around you or not sometimes

This also makes it easier to wander to different areas without you noticing, which gets kinda annoying when you're ready to check out but can't find him

At the end of the day he's another pleasant one to shop with despite his tendency to wander off

Venti:

Remember how i said Albedo has a tendency to wander off?

Yeah, well Venti does that but way louder

He's the type to shout to you about something from the other isle which can be kind of bothersome to other customers

He's had an employee come up to him once or twice and ask him to not do that, but he only half listened

At least it makes it easier to find him

He also puts a bunch of random things in the cart but can't back it up with money unlike Childe

I feel like he would enjoy riding around in or on the cart

He also has a tendency to tell bad jokes, but the amount of enthusiasm he says them with makes you laugh anyway

Another thing he does is pull you to a different area of the store to show you something cool while completely forgetting about your cart

Archons forbid he enters a pet store

He'll be all over those poor animals and probably end up buying one

I headcanon that he would keep a pet rabbit since he just seems like the type to me

Overall he's very fun to shop with and knows how to keep the mood bright. Plus you very rarely loose him with the amount of shouting he does

Thanks for reading! Sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes and have a great day/night! :)

brother

pairing: jihoon & reader / older brother!jihoon & gn!reader

warnings: JIHOON IS ANNOYING, swearing, mentions of parents, informal language

wordcount: 1k words / bulletpoint scenario

right off the bat, jihoon loves to annoy you

no surprise there

literally this man doesn’t know how to shut the fuck up

as much as you punch and slap him he doesn’t Care

you’re not even sure he feels your violent backlashes..

just call ur mom though and he’s apologizing as if he actually cares <3

jihoon is SO PETTY

he’s petty in the sense where you two would argue, he just walks out, and like 2 days later slap the back of your head

“wHY THE FUCK DID YOU DO THAT?”

he shrugs and just says idk

like hE’S NOT EVEN MAD AT YOU ANYMORE

HE JUST HAS TO BC… WHY??

and it happens vv often cause you fight like it’s the last day of ur lives Every. Single. Day.

ur both super stubborn so none of u apologize

but u guys only fight about rlly small things so arguments never rlly came to the point of needing proper apologies

other times he’ll barge into your room and Lay On You

it doesn’t matter if ur not on the bed.

he’ll just come up to u and flatten you out with his 5’10 ass

“get off me.”

“no”

"i can't Breathe"

"yea cause i took ur breath away"

"well give it the fuck back"

jihoon is like constantly looking for ways to annoy u in this state

he'll just lay on the bed and throw his legs somewhere on u

it’s kinda like his bonding time with you

like he’ll just flop onto your torso, pull out his phone and do whatever as if you weren’t even there

after shifting ur position so ur not Suffocating you just continue on with whatever ur doing

because you, as his sibling, would know jihoon was not gonna budge anytime soon.

honestly u would just Forget about him for a while until he randomly slaps your phone or flips your book to a random page

i’m pretty sure he’d spoil comebacks to you

at first ur like “STOP IT IDONT WANT SPOILERSSS”

but then after a while ur just like “waitt no way i thought mashi was dying his hair purple?”

kinda backtracking but he can’t keep his mouth shut so he’ll tell u ANY drama he hears about

totally would call you at any given hour for tea time

tbh if u want him to stop just hang up

he’ll just text you everything u missed anyway

cause he knows you actually do wanna know LOL

i can’t imagine him inviting you to his dorm with the boys

at least not often

he uses the excuse that “you are too annoying for them”

i say excuse cause jihoon doesn’t wanna swallow his pride and tell u that he’s feeling a wee bit protective of u even if he trusts the members with his life

just can’t help it

times he does let you hang w them, he’ll make sure to annoy you a lot in attempt to divert your attention from the boys

as much as u ignore him his plan inevitably works when he starts blurting embarrassing stories of you when you were younger

you have to slap his neck to get him to shut up HAHA

as much as we love the idea of wingman jihoon

don’t tell him if you have a crush on one of the treasure members

ESPECIALLY IF IT’S JUNKYU OR HYUNSUK.

save urself the embarrassment

he will do anything to get you to unlike them or something

if you’re serious ab liking them though, he’ll understand

i mean he won’t stop his ministrations but his intentions will have clearly changed

he’ll start teasing the member a lot and saying very subtle things about you that they might like

he’s gotchu bro but in the rudest way possible

adding on, jihoon genuinely really cares for you

he disguises his concern with teasing

he’ll flick your forehead throughout the day if he finds out you haven’t been taking care of yourself

“come on you should be old enough to know when you need to eat”

“you still need your older brother to tell you when to go to bed? you’re such a child”

he likes to make snacks for you while you study

from things like cut fruits to going to the convenience store really quick to buy your favorite chips

when he catches you all sad, he’ll drag you to your room and wrap you in your bedsheets

he’ll sit with you, regardless if you tell him to go away or not

he won’t say anything, and just let you cry or scream or rant

whatever his little sibling needs to feel better

because whenever you’re sad, he can’t help but feel at fault

he knows he’s not as outwardly affectionate and doesn’t want you thinking that he doesn’t care for you

especially if the reason why you’re sad in the first place is because he made you genuinely angry or said something to upset you

sometimes, when he knows that you’re really hurt, he’ll lay down with you and let you hug him

if you’re hurt because someone broke your heart, he’ll start pointing out every single little thing that he’s noticed that he didn’t like

it’s kinda scary how much jihoon knows actually???

like jihoon is super observant when he’s not talking tbh

“didn’t you notice how they always got a text at 4pm ‘from their mom’ and always had to be home by 5? they don’t live with their mom, y/n.”

you’re like “huh”

“yeah. also don’t you remember how you were getting suspicious of them and their work friend, and how quickly they dismissed that ‘friend’ of theirs when you brought it up that night? as if they expected it?”

“???? you noticed???”

“you didn’t?”

all in all jihoon is super caring in indirect but obvious ways

just call his name and he’ll be there :)

well he’ll be there after he finishes listening to mashi and jeongwoo fight tho.

he’s late by like 20 minutes but when he greets you with “y/n. oh. my. god.” ,, you know that 20 minutes would’ve been worth it.

Thoughts On The Snowgrave Route

[ spoilers for deltarune chapter 2 !!! it’s free go play it smh my head ]

i know i haven’t been active much recently, but my finals’ve been really fucking me up, so i just spend any free time playing games tbh. which lead to me getting my ass up to actually finish playing the snowgrave route at chapter 2. i’m still reeling from the afterglow of it, so words might go a bit funky

firstly, i LOVE this route. unlike the genocide route in undertale, where the game actively punishes you for even attempting it in the first place (heavy-grinding enemies for LV, sans’ fight and chara’s speeches) the snowgrave route though may give you tons of chances to abort it, it doesn’t truly try to guilt trip/shame you for playing the game this way, at least in my opinion. you mostly spend time running around just freezing enemies, which ends up being more rewarding in retrospect because it makes your playthrough a lot faster- therefore being a viable speedrunning technique. yes, there are true route speedruns out there, but said speedruns usually average out to almost an hour, whereas snowgrave cuts down 15-20 minutes for the run. and so, this route is actually more useful than the true route in terms of gameplay.

in terms of story, though ? depends on who you ask, but personally i find it so fascinating. as a writer, i always try to dip my toes into unfamiliar territories, and remove my own personal judgement against what said territories are. which often means i dive into topics which i can’t portray, simply because it’s out of character. but i really love to just explore concepts of psychological horror, manipulation and overall problematic concepts in fiction- as it shows what the human mind is truly capable of conveying in art, no matter the shape or form. still, there are something i generally object to, of which i will not name here for appropriate-content rules. ah right, back to deltarune-

here’s the thing, the snowgrave route doesn’t actually change much (plot-wise, anyways) for the chapter in generally. other from berdly possibly being dead/comatose, the ending largely remains the same, which ties into the ‘two paths, one destination’ theme Toby’s working towards. the reason i find snowgrave to be a ‘better’ story is not because it’s more ‘happy’ or ‘good’, but because it brings more complex concepts to the table. if the player/soul and kris are separate beings and the soul can seemingly talk without need for a vessel then how did they get bound together in the first place ? was the empty vessel created in chapter 1 related to this ? what happened to des/december, and why was her disappearance traumatic for noelle ? what is ralsei planning, and why is he finding time to tell only kris and not us ?- these questions raise discussion and theorizing, which makes a story feel that much more alive and mysterious. i’m not sure if every other party member is going to get their own ‘weird’ route, as there are already theories of either toriel or undyne joining you in the Dark World. along with this, i wonder if these developments would change the party members in the next chapters, since if you attempt all ‘weird’ routes, your team might be changing to fit how your relationships’ll morph.

okay okay. here’s the long as fuck analysis of snowgrave kriselle and how they got forcefully married to eachother- in which would probably not be that long since i usually overestimate myself. as i said, the snowgrave route revolves around kris being controlled by the soul to manipulate noelle into committing mass murder. aside from that, this route actively focuses on kriselle (or player x noelle) as a relationship more than the true route (which has suselle as the main ship) and the way that relationship is portrayed is incredibly fascinating. it’s clear that no party want into this relationship, but a force beyond their understanding forces them together, and ‘marries’ them off. it’s not much of a literal sense, but more of bounding to fearful souls together. we know that kris is often portrayed as a ‘knightly’ type, with their Dark World outfit having a sword, the plated armor, the fakeout that tries to trick players into thinking they’re literally ‘The Knight’ at the end of chapter 2. and what do knights do ? they go save princesses. noelle is made to be a damsel in distress type when you first find her in the Dark World, having to rescue her from Queen’s grasp. along with her being the only character so far that has a long dress often associated with royalty/angel imagery, you can see how kris and noelle feel like a duo of ‘knight and princess’ from a designing and story standpoint. this makes it so that the soul forcing kris to manipulate noelle is that of a twisted version of a king marrying his son off to a princess. this gets shown more and more as ‘marriage’ imagery appears in the route (the addison calling them ‘something else’, the constant appearance of rings and how they work as the push from the player to force kris closer/manipulate noelle further)- it’s a pretty clear way of showing that kris and noelle are now ‘bound’ to eachother, almost like how the soul is bound to kris’ body. i’d imagine this route might lock suselle out of the game later on, but who knows with Toby, honestly.

wow, uh. that’s.. really long lmao- anyways thankers for reading my midnight ted talk see you next week !!

Head canons for an MC with selective mutism

Lucifer: 

He read this in your file. It's all good. Would you prefer to write things down or type your answers? 

Got you a little whiteboard just in case. Stealing it as a  “prank” is now punishable by death.

Perfectly content to let you do your thing and if you become comfortable enough in his presence to whisper in his ear, he will halt any conversation on your behalf. 

Values your contributions to any conversation and feels bad that it's hard to get a word in living with 7 people.  

If you manage to become comfortable enough to speak to him, he'll be insanely proud of you and also flattered. Probably learns to sign very basic sentences if you know any signed languages. 

If you hurt your throat trying to force a few words out for his sake (maybe to impress Diavolo), he'll make you tea with honey and gently scold you. 

Mammon: 

Damn, this human is quiet. Why do you keep pushing notes at him? Just spit it out already. Lucifer told him about you but it still takes him a couple days to realize you physically cannot speak when he or the other demons are around. Like, for realsies.

Becomes extra protective of you. Why did he have to get assigned such a vulnerable human? 

If you force yourself to try and vocalize around him and end up stuttering, he feels like absolute scum and shoves his D.D.D. into your hand with the notes app open before coddling you the rest of the night. 

If anyone teases you, he'll fight them. No one picks on his human and gets away with it!

Tries to speak for you sometimes and feels suitably guilty when called out on it.

Knows that it's selfish and kinda fucked up but he'll like it if you only ever warm up enough to talk to him and not his other brothers. Cried the first time you spoke to him. 

"EVERYONE SHUT UP! MC HAS SOMETHING TO SAY!" *reads aloud from your white board* 

Levi: 

The human never speaks to him even if spoken to so obviously they hate him for being a yucky otaku. Not that's he's tried initiating conversation with you. Seriously, you've lived together a month in uncomfortable silence. 

Why would he care whether some normie talks to him anyway??? (He cares. He cares so much, oh god.)

Eventually you explain that it's not him and you're really trying. Oh hey this is just like that anime where- 

Levi also has trouble getting his words out (though to a lesser degree) to he gets it. Congratulations you have a new texting buddy. This man will text you 24/7 even if you're in the same room and technically he can speak to you. 

If you don’t sign, he'll want to come up with secret codes just between the two of you because you're his Henry! 

MC, stay home and do online school with him it'll be so much easier pleeease. 

If you manage to voice around him, he'll need a moment to collect himself because your voice is so cute! And it's just for him! His brothers are going to be so jealous! 

Satan:

Fascinating, please tell him more. This boy is trying very hard not to treat you like a case study but he just has so many questions.

Thankful that someone in the house is capable of being quiet. Finally, a moment of peace. You’re his new favorite person.

Concerned that this might be a trauma response but he's not going to pry. But you know you can always come to him and tell him anything, right MC? 

At first he's self conscious about reading aloud to you but once you reassure him that you love it, it becomes his favorite thing to do with you.

In his more fanciful moments, this reminds him of a romance novel where the protagonist is under a spell and loses her voice and only true love’s kiss could- Satan why are you blushing. 

If you sign, you’re his teacher now, sorry. He will learn more than Lucifer for your sake but it brings him no shortage of satisfaction to realize that he’s better than Lucifer at something. Will practice with you in front of Lucifer on purpose. 

“MC, please teach me how to swear.” ( You do not.)

Probably one of the first bros you can speak to because his room is quiet and soothing and he never pressures you to talk. 

Asmo:

 TBH, he talks about himself so much he didn't really notice you weren’t able to get a word in at first. 

He thought maybe you were just shy so he made sure to be extra friendly and charming. Cannot believe this doesn't work on you. He’s gonna have an existential crisis over this.

“Oh, honey, you can't talk right now? Let's get you feeling a little more relaxed ;)” 

Will hype you up constantly and slowly expose you to more social situations in the Devildom. If anyone reacts negatively to you then he will destroy their entire life, okay.

Delighted by how expressive your face gets once you’ve warmed up to him. MC, make that face again so he can put it on Devilgram!

Guilty of occasionally trying to speak for you (He just assumes you agree with him because all of his opinions are so good!) 

If you manage to even whisper his name, he'll tackle you and cover your face with kisses. 

Beel:

 It's a little scary how good he is at reading your facial expressions. At first, you think he might have some kind of mindreading demon power.

Never tries to speak for you without permission and is always looking to you to make sure you're okay with whatever is going on. He’s also the first person in the room to sense whenever you feel uncomfortable.

When he finds out you can't even scream for help if you need to, he gets very concerned. Beel is your shadow now. 

Companionable silence. The two of you have it.

If you teach him some signs he'll be ecstatic bc he can talk with his mouth full. 

If you ever get comfortable enough to voice around him, he'll wrap you in the tightest hug possible. He's just so happy you feel safe with him. 

Belphie:

What’s it like being a fragile human, you flop?

He is thankful that he can actually sleep around you unlike his loud-ass brothers.

Thinks your sore throat after he tries to kill you is from the strangulation and then finds out it's from your attempts to scream for help. Feels even worse now that he knows how helpless you really were. 

Did you know that you talk in your sleep? 

Please do not use sleeping Belphie as a white board.

Sometimes he peeks in on your dreams just to hear your voice bc he finds it soothing. Will not tell you this bc he's afraid you'll feel guilty. 

If anyone, teachers included, tries to give you shit then he will go completely feral. Now you're both in detention. Whatever at least he can nap there.

Aces HCs

Headcannons? Yes. Yes.

THIS IS FOR ALL MY FILIPINO FAMS OUT THERE HAHAHA

The 3RD YEAR Aces + Sakusa and Meian being taught the "Filipino" way of washing clothes? Yes please.

Filipinos mostly wash clothes while outside, with a few deep, circular tubs, and a manual pump.

warning: chaos, crack and a bit of spicy content bc.... water soaked aces and meian? hello?

So for this hcs, S/o are at the least, a quarter Filipino. I usually tend to make it as general as possible but... hehehe for the sake of this one.

Thank you to @lovemeian @ushisrever and @saudade-mayari for their inputs HAHAHA

@slutbench helped too ig HAHAHA

Anyway, Enjoy!

ARAN OJIRO

Mans is very curious. He visited the Philippines with you, saw your aunt handwashing the clothes and has the need to help.

Such a gentleman I swear.

Let me help you, Aunty.

He would NOT let you help either.

Even if he doesn't know how to do it, he won't let you help him.

So you sit down a little ways away and tell him what to do.

hE IS SO RECEPTIVE AND ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS WHEN YOU EXPLAIN IT.

So... I rub the cloth between my knuckles like this?

Yes, Aran. You're doing amazing.

He is so careful too, that no water splashes on his clothes.

good for you tbh. The baklas and the titas aren't staring.

but you know how them muscles flex so...

goodluck to you.

Asahi Azumane

Girl. Boy. Bakla. Tomboy.

Oh you poor dear.

He is such a baby in this

I am so sorry for you.

You ask him if he wants to help bc you see him watching you halfway through the coloured load.

He just shyly nods and goes over to you.

The moment he sits down...

Oh honey...

Like a baby trying to swim. Dogpaddles his way through the next load.

He's terrified that he's gonna rip the clothes with his strength so he uses minimal force

It barely cleans the shirt but you just sneakily redo it for him

mans is so proud of himself when he's done

pls praise him.

bc he'll give you kisses and will be more determined to help you.

Hajime Iwaizumi

Ah. The man of the hour.

the entire reason why this was thought of.

we all know that Iwa is half filipino hc right? Right.

Listen. mans already know what to do.

His Nanay had to handwash his clothes when he was young.

Batang kalye si Haji please

Asal kalye yan

BUNGISNGIS DIN YAN PUTA

I feel so sorry for Mama Iwaizumi please

but he matured

and he knows how to wash them clothes.

It's laundry day? He's already up, the clothes are piled and separated in their respective batya and he's pumping the poso like hell.

and he's gonna make you help.

y'know that pic of him with his sleeves all the way up his shoulders? yeah that's gonna be him.

but add in the wet shirt bc he's splashing the water everywhere

so you got the view.

also he uses tide bar with downy according to @saudade-mayari HAHAHA

Koutarou Bokuto

First of all. Don't let him help.

For your sanity, just don't.

He's a literal kid.

He's amazed by how you wash the clothes and he wants to help.

But what ends up happening?

You don't get the laundry done

till late at night bc of him

He's literally playing with the water and the clothes

and he's genuinely amazed at how a bar of detergent could lather so much

mans got you both soaking too

I am so sorry for you

but!

he made up for it

by hanging the clothes up for you when you're done

AND

cuddling you all night hehe

Wakatoshi Ushijima

Oh god.

Another clueless one

Just make him pump the poso.

please

bc if you make him wash it

he wouldn't know what to do

I am? Supposed to wash it by hand? How?

Just follow my lead, hon.

Unlike Asahi who was too scared to rip

Toshi doesn't know his strength.

Mans will rip the clothes and he wouldn't even notice it.

So unless you want the clothes to be all ripped like a poor recreation of ripped denim fashion

don't make him wash it please.

just make him get you water and lift the heavy loads lmao.

Kiyoomi Sakusa

You... are better off letting him do as he pleases.

LIKE DON'T EVEN ASK HIM.

You will not be able to convince this man to wash clothes the Filipino way.

I'm being serious.

He won't even touch the poso.

It's so rusty why would I even go there?

man will travel however long he needs to and will use mineral water as laundry water.

mans will also complain about everything.

Why does the detergent smell like that?

The water?? comes from underground??

What about the filtration system??

Oh and my personal favourite

YOU LET THE SUN AND THE MUSTY AIR DRY THE CLOTHES??

Yes, Kiyo. We do.

...I'm buying you and your family a washing machine and dryer set.

Kiyo no-

…Yeah no good luck lmao

Shuugo Meian

this one is for Lavi HAHAHA

Oh lawdddd

expect people drooling over this man

this 6'5.2, beefy man

like even the lolas are drooling lmao

why?

bc mans is gonna be washing them clothes shirtless.

arms out in display

abs glistening with soapy water

thighs flexing?

back sweating?

whooooo don't get distracted

focus on glaring at the people staring lmao

mans is so good at washing the clothes though like...wow

and he's very efficient and quick.

A job that would've taken you hours? done in an hour.

And he hangs them up so perfectly too.

mans is perfect. don't let him go

looking at you Lavi

Of Tevinter Mages and Dalish Elves

I wrote some cute pavellan because they deserve happiness tbh

cross posted on ao3 under the same name!

Alras leaned against the headboard on his bed, shifting slightly to keep a better hold on Dorian. The other had settled in between his legs, his back to Alras’ front, and was reading a book. Some sort of book on magical theory that was far too advanced for the Inquisitor to even make sense of. Instead he had wrapped his arms around Dorian, content to just snuggle and maybe take a nap while Dorian was occupied.

It was a while before he noticed Dorian hadn’t turned a page. Alras opened his eyes, seeing Dorian staring at the same page he had been a few minutes ago. He only recognized it because there was still the same diagram he couldn’t understand.

“Everything alright, Dorian?” He asked softly, nuzzling his face into Dorian’s shoulder. For all the talking he did, sometimes Dorian needed a prompt to talk about his feelings.

Dorian sighed, setting his book to the side and moving so he was sitting across from Alras. It took all of his willpower not to simply climb into Dorian’s lap, but he could tell this was serious. At least, serious for Dorian, anyway.

“Is your… clan is the word right?” Dorian hesitated, continuing when Alras nodded. “Is your clan going to be alright with… me and you?”

Alras blinked. He honestly hadn’t even thought about it. “I mean, if they made a fuss I was just going to point them in Iron Bull and Rylla’s direction instead.” Most of them had never seen a qunari before, so it would be a bit of a shock to meet one and find out he was dating their first.

Dorian gave him a look.

Alras smiled sheepishly. “Sorry, you’re being serious. It might be an adjustment, but they should be fine. I mean, we’re encouraged to have more elf children if possible, considering there aren’t a lot of us left, but I was never really planning on having kids anyway. I was just going to be a cool uncle, if either of my sisters had kids.” Of course Alwyn was dating Sera and Alea was still pining after Solas, so that seemed unlikely. “Technically I could have kids, but I’d have to do the carrying and I am not about that.”

Dorian chuckled. “Well, I certainly wasn’t planning on children, so we can agree about that.” He scrunched up his face. “You’re sure they won’t mind a Tevinter mage?”

“Most of them are less aggressive than Alea, I promise.” Alras shrugged. “I know we can be standoffish to outsiders, but as long as you’re respectful, they’ll be respectful back.” At least that was how it worked in his clan. There was no need to make enemies of everyone just because they weren’t like them.

“I’ll have to work on the whole being respectful bit I suppose,” Dorian said with a sigh.

“What brought this on anyway?”

Dorian shrugged, avoiding his gaze. “We shouldn’t both be outcasts in our own homes, should we? What would the neighbors think?”

“We’re constantly moving, so we don’t really have neighbors,” Alras pointed out. He moved so he could climb into Dorian’s lap, cupping his face with his hands so Dorian had to look at him, letting their foreheads rest together. “They’ll love you. You know why? Because I love you. It’ll be a little weird at first but it’ll be fine. I promise.”

“You always know just what to say, amatus.” Dorian tilted his head, giving Alras a soft kiss, letting his hands settle on the inquisitor's waist. “What would I do without you?”

“You’d manage, but things would be much less exciting,” Alras teased.

“That is certainly true.”

speaking 💗 uwu 💗 to the haikyuu!! boys pt 2

part 1

characters: suna, matsukawa, kyōtani, tendō & akaashi

tw// illness, swearing, sexual references, cwinge   

Rintarō Suna

bitch- he was shocked

he was feeling sick so you were taking care of him while he lay on the couch looking like the cutest lil’ potato you’ve ever seen

so while you were handing him the soup you made him, you said something along the lines of ‘here’s some wuv-filled soup for my poor honey~’ in the uwu voice

that was the best he felt all day lol

like honestly, you expected him to cringe which is kinda why you did it but he was all for it lmao

‘wait- please do that again, (y/n).’ suna groaned, slowly taking the soup from your hands 

you snickered, gently stirring the spoon to cool it down slightly, ‘no. now drink up.’

you picked up the spoon to jab it at his mouth since he was clearly too lazy to drink it himself, but his lips didn’t part no matter how desperately you poked 

he shook his head, keeping his lips together 

you rolled your eyes, dropping the spoon back into the bowl, ‘stop being a baby and drink the soup!’

suna continued to shake his head, ‘not until you do the voice again.’ he said, his voice hoarse and low.

‘bitch.’ you muttered while rubbing your temples, you were way too tired to deal with his clownery today 

‘please, (y/n).’

‘why are you so needy all of a sudden?’ you pouted, trying to think of something to say in the voice that wasn’t too embarrassing

‘i don’t know.’

‘uwu eat your fuckin’ soup, bi--’ you couldn’t even finish your sentence before wheezing at how silly it was to say something like that in ✨the voice✨ 

suna chuckled, immediately pulling his arm out from underneath the blanket to slurp up your delicious soup

the bowl parted from his lips as he let out a refreshed, ‘ah’ then dropped his gaze to meet yours, ‘you’re so cute.’

Issei Matsukawa

he would look you dead in the eye and smirk 

‘what’s wrong with your voice?’

WAIT BUT DON’T TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY BC HE JUST SAID THAT COZ HE PREFERS YOUR NATURAL VOICE LIKE PLEASE DON’T CHANGE IT YOU SOUND SO DIVINE 

‘nothing~’ you hummed, still holding your voice at a higher pitch

matsukawa quirked a brow, wondering if he was missing something

the thought occurred to him that maybe this a prank of some sort and you were waiting for him to give an interesting reaction

well, i mean, he’d hate to disappoint so-

he leaned forward to place a kiss on your cheek and wrap you in hug

‘what are you tryin’ to be all cute for, angel?’  he muttered against the sensitive skin of your neck 

a light blush dusted across your cheeks so you buried your face into the crook of his neck to hide it, ‘i don’t know.’ you replied in an awkward mix of your natural voice and the uwu voice

matsukawa snickered, rubbing up and down your spine with the large palm of his hand, ‘so you’re not gonna tell me, huh?’ he asked, playfully flicking your spine, resulting in a slightly whimper escaping your lips

‘is this a prank?’ he inquired further, holding a tight grip on your waist so you were unable to pull away - not that you wanted to anyway.

‘kinda.’ you snickered at how surprisingly quick he caught on

‘i fucking knew it.’ he chuckled, pushing you away from him to pressed a rough kiss against you lips, ‘but keep your real voice, angel. not to sound like a simp but it’s one the sweetest things i’ve ever heard.’

‘simp.’

‘shut up.’ he smiled and lightly flicked your back once more 

Kentarō Kyōtani 

he thought it was a sex thing-

you were just showing him your new-found talent while he was blushing furiously and just like ‘shut up, (y/n)! we’re in public! 😡😳’

and you just kinda shuffled awkwardly ‘what does that have to do with anything?’

‘you can’t just do stuff like that in front of everyone!’

he’d probably pull you onto his lap and cover your mouth with his hand to silence you

in his mind, the uwu voice = calling your s/o ‘daddy’ or ‘mommy’

like- just a bit too taboo to do in public-

you were so confused

‘kyōtani, get you’re filthy, dry hand off my mouth right now’

he wasn’t exactly sure what you said considering that his hand served the purpose of muffling your speech but he did hear that you called him by his full surname opposed to just ‘kyō’, ‘baby’  or ‘babe’ hence, you were probably angry 

‘i’m going to move my hand but i swear to god if you do that fucking voice again.’ he growled into your ear, that alone probably should’ve made you feel threatened but knowing kyōtani, he’s all bark and no bite; well, at least when it comes to you 

he slowly removed his hand from your mouth and you just shot him the deadliest glare 

he’s never going to recover from that one tbh- your eyes alone just scarred him for life 

without a word, you grabbed your bag from under your desk to search through it for a moment until you pulled out a small bottle of lotion

‘give me your hands.’

‘no.’ kyōtani rolled his eyes; he didn’t like the idea of putting lotion on his hands bc it’d made his hands slippery and if his hands were lubricated how was he supposed to GRIP?

‘i wasn’t a question.’ you scoffed, grabbing his hand and squeezing a dollop of lotion onto it, ‘have you ever moisturized in your life? your hands are so ashy.’

‘right, okay.’ kyōtani murmured, not even bothering to answer your silly question

‘ashy hands~’ you absentmindedly cooed in the uwu voice while spreading the lotion evenly across his palm

after realising what you hand just said, you immediately shifted your gaze onto kyōtani to see if he was livid >:)

but actually, he was painted a deep shade of red with his head turned away from you 

‘you’re going to hell.’ he hissed, not daring to meet your gaze just in case his face erupted in a blush once more

‘i’ll see you there~’

Satori Tendō

he’d look you dead in the eye and try to copy you lmao

like what else was he supposed to do? lmao

plus, he was sure of the fact he could do it better than you ✋

‘uwu-’ he choked on his own spit as that hellish sound left his mouth

‘TENDŌ!!’ you wheezed, covering your mouth to prevent an ungodly noise escaping, ‘sir, your vocal cords-’

‘wait do it again, do it again!’ he encouraged, clasping his hands together to plead

you snickered before raising the pitch of your voice once more, along with throwing up a little peace sign, ‘you’re such a swut!’

now it was tendō’s turn to wheeze

after a while, he was finally able to compose himself and attempt to imitate ✨ the voice ✨

‘you’re a whore!~’

you gasped, slapping a hand over your mouth, ‘WAIT, SATORI THAT WAS SO GOOD!’

tendō quirked a brow, shuffling in closer to you, taking your hand in his and placing a kiss upon the tips of each of your fingers absentmindedly, ‘really?’

‘yeah’ you nodded rapidly, not even bothering to hide the blush that was spreading across your cheeks at his random kisses 

‘i love you, baby~’ you hummed, pursing your lips in hoped he’d pick up on what your were asking for

‘i love you way more~’ he cooed, leaning in and connecting his lips with yours

honestly, y’all probably never use the voice again after that 

(other than when you play a prank on ushijima :P)

but it’s a fond memory lol

Keiji Akaashi

you did it as a prank but akaashi thought it was for his attention lol

he was just sitting at his desk, ‘studying’ hard (by ‘studying’, i mean he was blankly staring at his notes while thinking about you) while you were sitting on his bed, taking a well-earned break

then you saw a girl on your fyp try the prank out on her bf and ofc you had to try lmao

i mean, it was harmless :)) unlike some of the other pranks floating around

the only thing that could possibly get hurt during this prank was your pride

so you immediately tried it out

‘angel~’ you cooed, trying your best to keep the voice on and stifle a snicker as you watched him visibly perk up upon hearing you, ‘are you hungwy? do you want me to make you some snacks?’

akaashi turned around his chair to look at you and shoot you a sweet smile

HIS SMILE OEIHNFEVBEI pls it’s so holy 🥺🙏

anyway, he replied in his equally as angelic, mellow voice, ‘i’m fine, love. thank you though, you’re so sweet.’

you nodded in response, thinking that you weren’t going to get much of a reaction out him so you were about to go back to scrolling until he inquired further

‘by the way, what’s with the voice?- don’t get me wrong, it’s cute; i’m just curious.’

you let out a sigh, a smile gracing your lips as you figured that you’d end the prank here- you were too impatient to continue lol

‘it was just for a little prank thing.’

an understanding ‘ah’ fell from akaashi’s lips before he got up from his desk and slowly slinked towards you, cupping your face in his soft hands, caressing your cheek gently with his thumb as his lips teasingly hovered over your own

‘well, i’d be lying if i said i’m not fond of it.’ he hummed, his gaze fixated on your eyes for the most part but every few seconds it’d drop to send brief, longing looks at your lips 

he stole a quick kiss before backing away slightly, his hand staying glued to your cheek for as long as possible 

‘i’ll go fetch us some snacks- i’m suddenly craving popcorn.’

he left you in his room alone, blinking rapidly while trying to process what just happened

you just unlocked suave! akaashi

How The Demon Brothers React to Working the Part-Time Jobs 

Lucifer ->

This demon is not pleased in the least that he is being told to do lesser demon work. 

Really MC? He is much too busy to add a part time gig with NO benefits to his schedule.

However, MC makes it a point to let him know Lord Diavolo would be very displeased to hear that the human exchange student is having a rough time. 

Oh, woe is MC, I guess they’ll just have to work the part-time job themselves and get possibly kidnapped by lesser demons. 

*Dramatic MC noises*

...Fine, but so help you if you force him into The Fall. 

He prefers Hocus Pocus or Ristorante Six. 

Lucifer will find a way to get you back for this. 

You aren’t going to go unpunished by the Avatar of Pride, even if he DOES want to keep you safe and not so secretly cares.

Mammon ->

Oi, you really think you can get the Avatar of Greed to work for YOU, and PAY YOU for HIS work? 

Ha, you’re one stupid hum-  

*MC uses puppy eyes* 

It’s SUPER EFFECTIVE. 

He’s already in uniform. 

Fkn SIMP (we love it)

Please at least let him work somewhere interesting...ya know, like Akuzon where he might be able to swipe a few overstock items build up his muscles *cough*

Oh, or the Fall, ...yeah human send The Great Mammon to work at The Fall! 

He can swindle...I mean, convince patrons that he is worthy of their wallets extra tips. 

Yeah, that’s it...anyways when can he start?

Levi -> 

He has to leave his room AND interact with normies? 

That’s a hard pass...

Until MC presents some very solid points. 

MC promises to send Levi to Akuzon for part time work. 

Okay, that is his favorite place to order everything from, what else you got human? 

Well...you’ll have access to all the items...including exclusive stuff...that you could put on hold for yourself. 

Who’s going to try and wrestle the latest game or figurine out of the Avatar of Envy's hands? 

Not to mention at Akuzon he can work in the back, ALONE. 

Win, win. 

Levi is happily convinced.

Satan ->

Easily the hardest brother to convince.

He is fine with you telling Diavolo that you’re not happy.

That threat means nothing to him, he encourages it.

That will get Lucifer in trouble, not him.

MC promises to send him only to the Royal Library.

Okay, Satan is listening.

He is permitted to read as much as he wants, AND he gets to educate others when they request help.

Satan loves to read, but even more he loves to be right.

He doesn’t care about the money, he’s just excited to get a quiet place to read for once.

Not that he needs more convincing, but there are a few cats that roam the library.

Just sayin’

Asmo ->

“Oh, MC…! You need help from the mos-...what? Work?? AND give you the money??

*Chuckle* MC, you’re so cute...not a chance. Move along now...thank you!”

Alright, work your charm MC.

Oh…are you sure Asmo? I heard they’re releasing the latest line of lipgloss for Majolish. Of course, the employees get first dibs~

“MC, come on, I helped release that line and have 3 in every color.”

Hmm...alright MC, time to show your ace in the hole.

Well...I could ask you to work at The Fall, oh...nevermind.

Mammon is taking care of all the gorgeous dressed up demons.

“..!!! Well, now hold on MC...we both know I’M best suited for such an upscale club.”

MC turns around, Asmo is already dressed and ready to twerk work.

Beel ->

Okay, lets be perfectly honest.

It’s not hard to convince Beel to help out MC.

MC doesn’t even need to show the puppy dog eyes.

He just wants to keep you safe and knows humans are pretty fragile.

Bonus points for trusting him working at one of the restaurants.

Not the best judgement, tbh.

But the sheer idea you trust him around food and knowing without this money you would starve (that’s a lie, you get free room and board, but the idea is there) has him trying his hardest.

Best to send him to Akuzon instead for some heavy lifting.

Work out while he works? 2-for-1 deal.

Take the money, but treat the demon to a reward snack for not eating Levi’s packages.

Belphie ->

Second most difficult to convince.

You want him to...get out of bed...and work??

*MC whines in poor*

MC, are you looney?

He immediately goes back to sleep.

“Ughhh...what is it now human?”

Well Belphie...if you work at the Mausoleum, its unlikely that you’ll be bothered.

A very quiet place to be able to nap in complete peace.

No brotherly antics or Beel barging in scarfing down food like a dumpster with a dumptruck booty.

Mmm..you raise a fair point...and there is money?

I’m paying for you to give me a quiet place to nap?

...Deal.

You'll probably have to carry him there.

Some HQ boys brushing your hair (Ft. Tsukishima, Sugawara, Bokuto, Kuroo, Osamu, and Atsumu, separately)

Read the Bnha ver. here!

Warnings: none! Very fluffy

These are really self indulgent so they aren't too inclusive for hair type as I have 2B/2C hair,,, so I apologize in advance 😔

A/N: Personally I think this is a really sweet act of intimacy and I think I would cry if anyone ever brushed my hair for me.

Also this is my first time writing for the Miya twins so please all constructive criticism or advice is welcome!

---

Tsukishima

• My strawberry boy

• when you first ask him it goes one of two ways

• "what? Can't do it yourself?" *proceeds to do it anyway*

• or he just hums and grabs the brush from you

• listens to your short directions and gets started as gentle as possible

• yall got music softly playing in the background (I HC that he listens to indie but it can be anything as long as ur relaxed) and it's kind of a vibe

• sometimes when he's brushed through a strand he'll follow up by combing his fingers through the same strand and it feels so nice 🥺

• when he's all done you immediately turn around and pull him toward you

• his arms wrap around your middle and he nuzzles his nose to the crook of your neck (occasionally will press kisses there) while you run your own hands through his hair 😭

• his lil waves and curls are so cute 🥺💝

• salty dino boy really does love affection deep down so he lives for occasions like these when he can wind down with you and not have to keep his wall of pride up the whole time 

Suga

• sugaaaaaa😭😭😭

• i can imagine him humming a soft tune while he combs thru your hair strand after strand

• your eyes closed focusing on his voice and the brush movements

• 10/10 very nice

• he might add a lil braid somewhere if he knows that you won’t mind

• suga is soft but lets not forget the chaos,,,

• he’ll pause every now and then to press kisses to or blow raspberries into your neck

• you don't know which one ur gonna get tho so be prepared 

• he snickers a lil when you go "Koushi!!" after he's blown a raspberry to your neck hehe

• kinda makes up for it when he kisses you, they are very sweet kisses

• probably dramatically wraps his arms around you when he's done and yall lay there for a bit enjoying eachothers company 😭

Bokuto

• very enthusiastic about this

• "your hair! Of course I'll brush your hair for you baby!!"

• you're kinda scared he'll get too excited and yank a little too hard

• you very calmly tell him to be gentle and give him directions on the best way to brush through your hair

• yall probably watching a movie or show while he does this

• sitting on the couch with you between his legs

• he's very tempted to just drop the brush and wrap his big arms around you in a hug but he resists,,, for u 💝

• plus he knows you'll give him kissies after

• and you do! When he's all gone you lean behind and go

• "thank you Kou, you did good baby, it felt nice." 

• maybe kiss his nose, he’d like that a lot

• bokuto has lil tears in his eyes tbh,,, he's just so soft for you and you're so cute!🥰

Kuroo

• before he gets started he kind gives you a little shoulder massage if you're okay with it

• idk how he does it but I imagine his touch to be really relaxing 

• prolly has you sit on the edge of the bed while he stands behind you

• starts to comb through your hair carefully, using his hand to brush against so he won't hurt you

• uses this time to ask you about your day if you want to talk but he's also 100% okay if you don't feel like talking

• kuroo is literally so willing to do anything you need/want him to do

• he knows you appreciate it and it makes him happy

• so like if you would also like him to help style your hair (trust, he’s actually kind of good at it) he’s down

• (like shinsou from the bnha ver) I can definitely see him also brushing aside your hair to one shoulder so that he can lightly kiss your exposed neck when he's done

• it's actually very sweet 🥺

• he gets kisses as a reward after and is very content with that

• he sees it as another small way that he can repay you for all the things you've done for him

Osamu

• when you ask him to brush your hair for you,,, he is very easy to convince

• just kinda nods at you with a “‘course doll” then disappears into the kitchen and you’re like????

• king of snacks,, yall already know🤩

• comes back with your favorite snacks or something he’s cooked for you to enjoy 

• then he just takes his place behind you and gets to work

• kinda knows what he’s doing? Somehow, you’re not sure

• brushes your hair the way he remembers seeing you do it

• very minimal tugging

• gets all the tangles out pretty easily

• you’re so relaxed you barely notice he’s done until he just places his hand on your head and looks at you so softly before handing back the brush FJBSJVBvjkBdvjsj

• then he gives you this smile and goes “Don’t I get a kiss now?”

• ofc you get kisses ‘Samu 🥺💛

Atsumu

• unlike osamu who asks for his kisses at the end, atsumu is like “uhhh I’m gonna need like at least 10 kisses for that”🙄

• which like obv you’re gonna give him but you pretend to put up a fight just so you can mess with him

• jokes on you he’s literally doing the same thing

• anyways

• he’s like “sure babe, whatever you want”

• has you sit in front of him and wraps his arms around you briefly and presses a kiss to your cheek before getting started🥴

• you’ll probably have to remind him how to take care of your hair for you

• but once you do, he’s got it

• when he’s all done he'll playfully tug on a stand of your hair lightly before handing back the brush and goin “all done!”

• he then returns to his previous position with his arms around you and places his chin on your shoulder

• yall just cuddle with a lot of kisses in between🥺

HI ID VERY MUCH LIKE TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR KAYCEE AU,, (also ik we haven't properly talked in a while so hey what's up !!)

HI YES I DO HAVE CONTENT FOR YOU

(also hi!! It has been a while, I'm doing okay!! Wbu? ^^ love your art and content as always!!!! :D your Kaycee design has inspired me a BUNCH it's so cute,, the way you draw her is 10/10 if anyone reading this hasn't seen said design PLEASE go follow Kal and look at it (I reblogged the specific art recently if you can't find it >:) ))

As a quick note, I haven't finished KM and this AU was made before a lot of that so no KM spoilers, at least not intentional ones lol.

(tossing in a readmore as this rant got long)

OKAY SO

This AU is called Inscryption devs because surprise surprise, it follows the development of Inscryption.

In my funky headcanons, there's been two main development teams for Inscryption. The first one had a bigger team who worked on some other GameFuna games, where everyone slowly either quit or met their fate in a... Sadder way. Generally I've always thought of the characters of Inscryption as being poor unfortunate souls rather than simply sentient AU, but both are fun! It's not like they would remember their past anyways. (If you wanna look for sentient AI in my headcanon, ya gotta look to the Hex. Big call-out post for everyone who got me into the Hex, SO worth it.)

But, then Inscryption gets shelved for a couple years. The office is full of rumors and no one is interested in really touching it, GameFuna is just glad to have the code. (tbh I don't fully know what it does, the ARG confuses me LMAO)

Then comes along Kaycee! She's been working there for a while, avid card game fan, and she's well liked for her dedication to the company and work on other games. After finding out about the Inscryption project, she grows incredibly intrigued by it, and convinces the company to give her a second chance with the game. However, she must work with a smaller team, to prove herself for now.

So, gets into the part where I get to be cringe - my original characters. The Inscryption developer team consists of..

Kaycee Hobbes, the project lead, dedicated and hardworking. She's an overworker with the tendancies to stay late and try to get a lot done on her own all at once. Despite her dependence on herself she's an understanding manager who won't let people walk all over her.

Spencer Kragen, the coder, put on this project as punishment. Spencer is the son of one of the higher ups at the company. Not only does he not want to be here, he's activley making it as insufferable as possible. Through the dedication of Kaycee and slowly learning others perspectives, the stuck up rich kid slowly becomes more accepting of those around him, and learns even a bit about himself.

Diana, the main story builder, is a loving mother of two twin girls. She is overall a very kind and loving figure, becoming a mother figure type to the rest of the group. She has to have a lot of her focus away from work, but she works very hard when she is there. However, when something catches her eye, it's unlikely she'll leave without finding all the details...

Last but not least, Akira! They are the main artist, and a nervous wreck. They tend to overwork a lot, desk full of concept doodles for what they could do with the story. When not working it's likely you'll find them bickering with Spencer. Overall, though, Akira is just a kind and dedicated gamer who is trying their best.

So that's the crew! They spend a good period of time developing the game, obviously, but when it comes down to it..

Everyone in this story is dead by the point of the main events of Inscryption.

It's just fun seeing how they got there! And if you think I write a single story without found family, you are so wrong. /Pos

This also leans into a lot of my headcanons if I am prompted to rant more, so get ready to see things such as the woodcarver as the scrybe of beasts, or just how P-03 acts. Plus uh, all of my Hex headcanons shoved in there, somehow.

And of course, this goofy team of devs lead by the amazing Kaycee.

Okay I'll stop rambling in this longass post I'm sorry for this taking so long hope it's interesting byeee

mechs timeline... or something

good evening gender identities! i’ve been thinking about the order the albums might have happened in, chronologically, and how events from some albums might have affected others! and now i have a whole long theory/headcanon about it, because i’m insane. so. here we are!

(obligatory disclaimer that i did make some assumptions about events that happened offscreen, and while they’re all based in actual canon, they are still, y’know, headcanons that shouldn’t just be taken as fact.)

so, typically the assumption is that the albums take place in the same order that they were released (ouatis udad hnoc tbi, with ttbt songs wherever they fit) which is possible (and probably correct tbh)! but this line from ‘ulysses’s will’ caught my attention:

Doesn’t matter there’s nothing beyond the City save the automated colonies that feed it and the empty black.

which could be interpreted a couple different ways, but the most literal being that there really is nothing beyond the city- there are no more habitable planets, & the city has taken over the last planets and is using them for maintaining the city (presumably). which, considering we know that there are many planets and other Things In Space in the mechsverse, probably means that udad is actually the last of the albums to take place, timeline-wise.

the only piece of evidence i could find directly contradicting this is that nastya went Out right before tbi, and was present (though offscreen) during udad. but time travel is an established thing in the mechsverse that we know the mechanisms have access to, so:

yes, udad happened last in linear time, but that doesn’t mean that it happened last in mechs time- in fact, if i were newly immortalized & could travel through time, the last human civilization is probably one of the first places i’d want to go. so the album release order is probably the order that the mechs visited these planets, even if that’s not the order they existed in, like, human history.

anyway! so what order did the albums take place in, then?

i’m gonna go out on a bit of a limb and say that i think tbi actually took place first! i know it’s usually considered to take place last because it was the last album to be released, (+ the thing in out i talked about already). but hear me out!

tbi took place first, after a good portion of, like, other things had already happened. what other things? i don’t know! the mechs probably didn’t write about them because they were actually happy, or unsatisfying, or whatever. so tbi is actually the first step to the destruction of the rest of the universe, and i’ll explain how that might have happened in a moment. (which actually explains why lyf saw notes that the mechs’ technology seems so alien- it was pretty early along in the timeline, compared to the rest of the albums).

so i’m working under the headcanon that the bifrost managed not only to destroy all of the yggdrasil system, but a good portion of the rest of the universe as well. it’s pretty easy to guess how the sudden disappearance of a whole system would lead to people going to investigate, which would lead to more people getting killed by the Rainbow Shit, and if anyone survived they’d probably bring bits of the Rainbow Shit back to their home planets, ect, ect. (also, not to delve too far into forbidden lore, but the void spreads.) so, the bifrost probably wiped out most of the civilizations in the universe.

but a few planets/systems survive- ones far enough away that they weren’t immediately affected, and were able to get word that Maybe Investigating This Is Not The Best Plan. which brings us to ouatis, which i think happened sometime after tbi (possibly around the same time or after as hnoc- i’m putting it first for organizational purposes, but it could go either way).

so the system from ouatis survives, & this is probably how old king cole was able to establish himself as an immortal tyrant, since there was a sudden lack of other governments to keep him in check/send support to citizens starting an uprising. this basically leaves old king cole free to colonize a good portion of the planets that weren’t destroyed by the bifrost. presumably the government collapes after king cole dies, (to quote the fiction, it most likely suffered ‘the most horrendous power vacuum and subsequent bloodshed the universe has ever seen’ which probably killed a good amount of the remaining citizens) and that’s another mass civilization down! fun times.  

which actually ties very neatly into alice. it’s unlikely that the ouatis system (does it have a name? i can’t keep calling it the ouatis system i can’t) was able to completely escape the horrors of the bifrost, and might still have some residual effects in the areas that the void touched. the planet/moon from alice was probably an area heavily touched by the void, which might be why it’s Like That.

and then we get to hnoc, which, again, could have happened at any time around when ouatis was taking place. we know that they were never able to finish building the station, & that contact with the outside world was abruptly cut off in holder of the grail. so it’s not unlikely that the civilization, or at least part of it, was killed by the bifrost. (i mean, the other option is that they just, like, got bored with the station and ghosted an entire colony). the station survived due to previously mentioned lack of contact with the outside world, although this doesn’t last long.

which brings us to udad! unlike fort galfridian, i don’t think it was completely cut off from the rest of the universe- just far enough away, or relatively untouched, enough that it was still habitable. which is probably why it got so crowded- so many people were moving there after their home got destroyed by cosmic horror rainbows. there’s also something to be said about the fact that the city is modeled after the ‘roaring twenties,’ which was a time of innovation and celebration after recovering from disaster, but that might be reading too far into it.

but, while the city was mostly sheltered from the bifrost attack, it probably was still at least slightly touched by bifrost, similar to alice. which might be how we get things like orpheus being able to see the future in his dreams. hm! sounds familiar! it’s almost like someone else also apparently saw the future in their dreams and was connected to the void!

[ODIN] When I first built this train, this snaking engine of change, I could not have guessed that this is where the songs I dreamt of would lead.

haha. yep.

also, taking the epilogue into account and how ashes burned down the acheron, effectively killing the last life in the universe... and how they died at the very end of the universe, briefly the brightest thing in the universe... well. i’m not saying that when ashes died they were cast back forward to when they burned down the acheron for the first time but maybe that’s what i’m saying.

so, to recap: during the bifrost incident, the void leaks through into our world and destroys most of it. fort galfridian and king cole’s empire are some of the few surviors, due to lack of contact, although king cole couldn’t completely escape the bifrost. both of these civilizations fall, leaving the city as the only habitable place left, although also slightly touched by the bifrost. the city also eventually falls into ruin, and with it, the last humans in the known universe. and that’s how the world ends, i guess! woo.

again, don’t take this as canon or whatever- i’m just taking the vague scraps that the canon did give us and turning it into a story that makes sense, at least from my perspective. so, yeah!
