fairy tail dragon slayer headcanons pt. 1
⥠what the first gen and second gen dragon slayers eat is pretty self-explanatory. all of their elements are... somewhat tangible. sting and rogue though? they're still figuring it out. rogue wonders if he can eat someone else's shadow, and sting immediately volunteers himself. "for science!" he says. the result is that sting almost passes out. oops. he insists they try on their friends, much to rogue's displeasure. the results are that sting is the most susceptible, then yukino, rufus, orga, and minerva is the least susceptible to magic drainage. sting insists rogue tries to eat an inanimate object's shadow, and nothing happens to it, so they decide that's the way to go.
⥠when wendy eats air, the oxygen levels thin. she has to be careful or she'll cause her allies and enemies alike to pass out. when sting eats light, the area gets darker and darker. this is great for rogue, who starts eating the shadows, and they manage to balance each other out.
⥠sting insists that different types of light taste differently. his favorite is light from golden hour, right when the sun is dipping below the horizon. moonlight will do in a pinch, but it's so diluted that it takes way more of it to recover sting's magic. he also gets sick if he eats too much moonlight.
⥠pantherlily already has transformation magic and enhanced strength, and carla learns to transform so she can help wendy fight. the other three exceeds feel... a little left out. happy learns how to fly faster and for longer (though he still complains about lucy being heavy). lector goes to porlyusica and wendy to learn some stamina regeneration spells for sting. everyone is surprised when frosch, completely on their own, manages to learn an adorable light spell that creates floating pink bubbles. rogue can consume the shadows from them without worrying about draining frosch's magic, and he spends the entire afternoon crying about it.
⥠dragon slayers are a bit like crows. their way of bonding with someone is through gifting trinkets. natsu will bring lucy, erza, and even gray pretty rocks or seashells that he's found on jobs. wendy picks up a new craft or hobby every week, so the members of fairy tail are constantly recieving handmade accessories from her (gajeel helps during the metalsmithing phase). gajeel does not buy cute things for people. he is like a dad in the fact that, when juvia mentions she wants watermelon, he buys her 20 watermelons. walking math problem fr.
⥠laxus has mixed feelings about his more draconic features and habits. he's never loved his magic because of the way he got it, and the memory of his father basically torturing him as he inserted the lacrima will stay with him forever. he tends to suppress dragon instincts more than anyone else in the group, and they all scold him for it. on a rare occasion, laxus will give in and buy something shiny (like a hairclip) for wendy. she has a little jewelry box for them that she guards fiercely.
⥠cobra considers himself more of a flying snake than a dragon. he once drew a picture that sent everyone into a laughing fit. he prefers to stick with the old oración seis crew, but the guild dragon slayers are always happy to see him when he stops by with crime sorciÚre.
⥠sting, because of his heightened senses and his affinity for light, prefers nighttime. the day can often be overwhelming, and overexposure to bright settings and lots of people leaves his skin buzzing. he likes to sit in the dim guild hall, leaning against the cool stone wall, as the chatter of the crowd quiets down with the setting sun.
⥠dragon slayers all have the Bite instinct. some exercise a degree of control about it, and others go crazy with it. wendy will very gently nibble on erza or mira's arm when she's in the mood, and sometimes she does it absentmindedly. natsu, on the other hand, is an absolute menace. multiple of erza's armor sets have natsu-shaped bite marks on them. he tends to go after her the most because he knows he won't hurt her with the armor. when natsu's more calmed down, he will chomp on lucy's shoulder. gajaeel copes by eating all of fairy tail's silverware (mira starts buying ceramic spoons), but when levy offers her wrist to him he can't help it.
⥠rogue is another one who doesn't really bite people. he, very rarely, nips at frosch's ears, which causes the exceed to giggle. sting is a Biter like natsu, but with slightly more decorum. he really wants to go at it but will restrain himself because most people aren't willing to be treated like a chew toy. luckily for him, gray and cana aren't most people! because they both wear pretty exposing clothing, gray and cana have no qualms about showing off sting's bite marks on their skin. sting always turns bright red when they tease him about it.
⥠laxus and cobra don't really feel the Bite instinct due to being second gen, but cobra is a little shit and bites people for the fun of it. laxus is completely unbothered when natsu clings to him like a koala and gnaws at him.
#lychee writes#gray and cana are best friends with sting. loke too. this is canon mashima told me#minerva taught frosch the spell btw but she'll take that secret to her grave#genuinely how does one eat light or shadow though#I can't even visualize itđ#fairy tail#fairy tail headcanons#natsu dragneel#wendy marvell#gajeel redfox#laxus dreyar#sting eucliffe#rogue cheney#cobra#sabertooth#dragon slayer#gajevy#if u squint

Hello there! What are the pros and cons of using naginatas as a weapon specifically? Is it fairly similar to the ones for lots of other polearms? Or is it it's own unique thing? (Trying to get an accurate idea of how it would feel to use one in combat for some writing I want to do.)
Thanks!
Pros:
Firmly encourage people to maintain social distancing.
Slice people you haven't even met yet.
Slice people riding horses or standing on low roofs.
Add ribbons and streamers as fashion accessories.
Easy to carry.
Can always find one at the right length for you.
Better leverage for your blade than if it had been mounted of a katana.
Never need to explain that you're overcompensating for something.
Amazing looking duels with fellow naginata users.
You can use it on horseback.
Try to impress the Onna-musha.
Cons:
A little bit claustrophobic.
Not great in a mosh pit.
Doesn't like going indoors.
Not good against people who refuse to social distance.
No one will respect you for being a samurai, and may still make fun of you.
Still a delicate razor blade.
Fail to impress the Onna-musha, they know all your moves, are probably better at them than you, and are more interested in making jokes about the length of your shaft.
So, the naginata is basically the blade of a katana mounted on the end of a long shaft. This doesn't make it inherently bad. But it does inherit some of the weakness of a sword, combined with the range of a polearm. That said, keeping them intact is quite doable, you just need to be careful about how you strike.
As mentioned above, and as with almost all polearms, it shines in situations where you can keep enemies at range, and becomes a lot less appealing if you can't keep them off of you. This means it works really well in phalanx-style applications. As with all (or, almost all polearms), it has serious value as an anti-cavalry weapon, letting you dispatch riders.
As for it being its own unique thing, yes and no. It is a different kind of polearm, and you can probably some surviving manuals on exactly how to use them. And there is a modern martial art based on the original form. However, I don't know how much of the original Naginatajitsu martial art has been lost. As far as I know, there were at least a few decades between the, âdeath,â of the martial art in 1868, and it's revival sometime after 1889. Also, when it was revived, it was as a physical fitness regimen, and not as a martial art. That's enough time, to lose a lot of the technical detail, and meant that if it was preserved, it was done so quietly, which increases the risk of elements being lost.
As polearms go, the naginata is pretty light, ranging from about 3 to 8lbs. (Specifically 1.5 â 3.5kg.) Which does make it a bit more agile than you'd expect from a polearm. It's not clear how much of the flourishes you'll see from modern martial artists were actually part of the original martial art or just spectacle, but you can get some solid movement out of them. And even in its day it the weapon's agility was noteworthy. (Though, to be fully honest, I'm not sure how much of that was in the contemporary literature, and how much is from modern analysis. I do suffer from not being able to read the primary sources in this case.)
Naginatas were a very egalitarian weapon, used by the samurai, monks, peasant footsoldiers, and the Onna-musha (women warriors.) That last category has become one of its more enduring cultural associations. In fact the physical fitness revival was specifically targeted as exercise for young girls. (This is part of why the weight range is so wide, as there's a massive variance in shaft length. Anywhere from 4 to 8 feet in length. (Specifically 120-240cm.)) As a polearm, that's kinda short, but the blade itself adds another 85-100cm. This puts the total length at between 6'8â and 11'2â. And, yeah, a three meter polearm is not a joke. Even if there is an unusual amount of blade on the end of that shaft. It's part of why the naginata is immediately distinguishable from other polearms of similar sizes.
The short answer would be that it is a specific weapon, with its own identity. Some of that is a function of physics and some is cultural.

I would like 2 hear ur susie analysis plz
Susie is a highly organized, highly intelligent businesswoman, engineer and mad scientist. She is also a very affable and silly young adult, and has no shame about it - she openly adores sweets and cute things and decks out her carefully engineered WMDs with bright colours and pretty patterns. Thereâs even adorable watercolour-style official art of her mundane day-to-day life â fussing over a board meaning, exercising on a treadmill*, singing karaoke, trying on hair accessories (with her helmet on?). She ate a rock that one time.
Sheâs also the villain of the story; or at least most of it. And sheâs a damn good one, too!
Susie doesnât see herself or her actions as evil or cruel, and it shows; sheâs cheery and well-mannered even when sheâs trying to blast you to little pink bubblegum bits. She speaks with an air of dismissal and condescension toward inferior ânativesâ like Kirby and openly dehumanizes MK as somewhere along the lines of a product or object, but itâs so⊠casual. The contents of her dialogue may be utterly horrific, but her tone is nearly always friendly. Customer Service Voice-esque.
She genuinely believes she is doing these people - well, whether she truly sees them as people at all or not is oft called into question, but I digress - a favour. She dehumanizes other species as ignorant and inferior, like children who donât know any better and need the guidance of an external force to live up to their full potential. In her eyes, these native âprimitivesâ need her help; to take advantage of their home planetâs lush resources, to be shed their âlazyâ lifestyle and put themselves to work, to adhere to her standards of how good, proper folk had ought to conduct themselves - like machines.
When Star Dream absorbs her fatherâs consciousness, in the original Japanese and PAL localization, she stops calling Kirby by twee little nicknames and finally addresses them by their name. (In the former, itâs name AND title: âKirby of the Starsâ). Kirby defeats her in combat time and time again, and ARGUABLY maybe even earns her respect, a little bit. The eleventh hour strikes and sheâs forced to rely on the kindness of someone who sheâs up to this point belittled as a lesser being, because now theyâre in the same boat and sheâs on the receiving end of being treated as an obstacle to be disposed of, too. And itâs GREAT.
I donât even have a proper conclusion to this whole thang I just like Susie so much.
*She has legs, theyâre just invisible. Fun fact. Her feetsteps

You can choose whichever Antiques you'd like for this one!
Taking them to a store (Walmart style or a department store with a bit of everything), giving them a hundred dollars, and telling them that they can buy whatever they like within that price limit.
Who takes advantage of it and what do they buy?
Enfield â He happily buys food, medical supplies, and other necessities. Although he can't see it as anything other than a normal supply errand, he's at least content to find useful things to buy for both of you. And to try to show how competent and helpful he is.
Snider â He'll buy anything that he thinks can be used as a weapon, and is openly irritated about the lack of actual military supplies in the department store. He's also trying to make a "point" about why the whole idea is stupid, so his choices are intended to piss you off.
George â His purchases are mostly food (will you cook burgers for him???), and he doesn't have the slightest second thought about spending the full amount. However, there's at least one surprisingly sweet gift for you mixed in with the junk food and impulse buys.
Kentucky â He mostly gets various craft and DIY supplies, fully intending to make gifts for you later. There might be an accessory for himself included too, thoughâ one that he asks your opinion about before buying it, just to make sure Master likes his style.
Pennsylvania â He feels kind of bad about spending your money (he really doesn't need to be spoiled...), so he tries to buy things that will be useful to both of you. It's mostly practical items and things he knows you like, and he spends far under the full amount given.
Charleville â He's both deeply insecure about being too "high-maintenance" and unsure of what he should want, in the first place, so his purchases end up being little more than a piece of flattering clothing and some sweet wine. He gives most of the money back.
Chassepot â The main thing he gets is a showy, "romantic" gift for you, but if you pay close attention, you'll notice him smuggling a couple of bags full of cheap alcohol (an emergency emotional control measure) past you when he thinks you aren't looking.
Tabatiere â All he gets are cigarettes and some nice things to cook with, like new utensils or food he knows you like. He's deeply uncomfortable with the amount of money you gave him, so he's trying to make sure you get something out of this too.
Dreyse â A mixture of whatever practical supplies he needs (such as non-perishable food or exercise equipment) and Herme management tools, such as a belt that takes some coordination to remove. He'll also give you a good portion of the money back, in the end.
Jitte â His main purchase is nice sake for the two of you to share! Depending on what's available, he might also get Japanese candy, a little potted plant, or an interesting novel, but he's thanking you profusely for being so nice to him, regardless. Master is so kind!
Karl â He gets a fair amount of nice chocolate, and that's it. The rest of the money goes back to you. It's partially a dignity thing and partially just that he doesn't want to look needy, but he can't make himself spend very much. A small treat is plenty, really.
Lorenz â There's not much in a department store that interests him, so his selection ends up being an eclectic selection of objects that he intends to experiment with somehow. He'd also get a book or two if there's anything available that seems worth his intellect.
Cutlery â He spends the full amount, and it's all food. Specifically, non-perishable food that he can hide in his room and hold onto for the next few months. He tries not to let you see exactly what he's getting, and is concerningly protective over the bags when you leave.

đ for cascade or jubilee? đ„șđđ
For... Cascade! Minovae's eyes light with something between awe and nervousness. Cascade is so utterly gorgeous and her style... Mino presses her fingers together and begins to think. Maybe she'd like to go dancing together?? Mino is highly trained and experienced in Taldan Tango and other partner dances and there's a showcase coming up soon... would Cascade enjoy the honor of being her dance partner? She hasn't had anyone to seriously dance with her in... well decades! Aside from Woljif who she pretty much press-ganged into being her dance partner at the victory gala since she forced him to learn the moves as a training exercise.
Top:Â The first thing Mino notices is the color motif: the gold and black and white with red shawl. Hmmm... not Mino's typical color scheme but she can work with it! They'll have an opposite's attract kind of vibe for their paired entry. For this, she's going to go with a little bit of a swap on primary colors, bringing red to the forefront to counter her own paler and greener natural colors. For that, this deep crimson halter dress is absolutely gorgeous! The shimmer and shine on it will look great with all the jewelry she knows Cascade loves, and is what she would call 'tastefully' revealing. It calls to mind Cascade's usual red shawl but in primary, and the free-flowing hem will look great in the spins. There's a subtle floral motif that she'll carry into other parts of the look, too [and don't mind the silver, Mino will swap it for gold].
Bottoms:Â The dress is a bit short cut, though, so Mino also slides forth these shorts to wear beneath! They keep up Cascade's black and gold preference, and will create a fun peek-a-boo effect. They'll keep Cascade comfortable and should be plenty capable of keeping up during the dance :)
Shoes:Â Right, the 'shoe' situation. Hrmm hrmm hrmm, Mino hasn't had to work with hooves before. She trusts Cascade to supply all the jewelry she has but doesn't want to go with just that... so how about these 'barefoot sandals' in gold color? They continue the floral motif and will look so fun between the hem of the shorts and Cascade's hooves! They're delicate looking yet sturdy enough that they won't need to worry about pieces flying off or getting damaged, too. Mino will make sure they're probably fitted to hooves!
Hair/Hat:Â What's that? A little bit of green in your wardrobe, Cascade? Well what a perfect color to round out the crimson and gold and also tie back into Mino's own outfit and colors she'll be wearing! It's tough to pick something that wont interfere with Cascade's pretty horns (why would we ever want to hide those!), so for her hair, Mino'll help tie up those pretty black tresses into this gold and emerald piece with vine and floral motifs! She'll leave some flyaways to to accentuate the spins, but not enough to get into Cascade's eyes, and this will pull everything back to really show off how pretty those horns are.
Other Accessories: So. Many. Accessories.... Rather than a free-flowing shawl (that could get lost in the dance!) Mino is supplying this golden lace shawl instead that fits more like a bolero top! The deep golden hue is so, SO pretty and will look gorgeous with Cascade's own natural tones. It won't be at risk of flying off and the front clasp can be adjusted with any piece of jewelry from Cascade's own (impressive) personal collection. NOW! That being said, Mino has picked out a few suggestions! She wants to continue the emerald compliment color with these various pieces: a chain circlet similar to what she's seen Cascade rock before but not as in her face and possibly a distraction; these thick cloth emerald and gold bangles and bands (love a solid block of color!); these bracelet and ring combo with chain across the hands (a classic look for her); and lastly these gold floral ear cuffs (modified for tiefling ears!) that'll pair well with the hair piece. Mino of course encourages Cascade to supplement whatever jewelry she wishes! She knows she is but an amateur in comparison >flushed<
#ask game#ask meme#outfit ask#oc: cascade#I hope they enjoy dancing together!#mino gets fiercely into it and very competitive! she doesnt get to really do it all that often hehe

Because I need to just... get it out, I guess (regarding the weird trigger this morning). TW: health, food/sugar, fasting, diabetes, weight, weight stigma, EDs, etc etc. There will be numbers of blood glucose readings.
So, years ago when I was on oral contraceptive pills (during the time of pseudo-recovery, btw), I also had a theory that they may make me mildly hypoglycemic. They don't, but I got a glucose meter + strips and stuff to test out the theory. I like data and numbers and whatnot, so it was kind of fun to just see how my body responded etc etc. I loved getting the data as I could in any kind of situation- how did my body respond to exercise? Did my glucose spike regularly? How and when? When I learned that CGMs existed, I loved the idea of them because continuous data that didn't involve several pokes. But, gotta prioritize people with actual diabetes, yeah?
I will also say: diabetes is one of those conditions that I have health anxiety after. There is a lot of fearmongering about food / carbs and diabetes. It's not so much about developing diabetes that makes me anxious but more so how I will be treated should I develop diabetes. The first issue: obviously as somebody recovered from a restrictive, weight-based eating disorder, being told I "should" restrict any food and/or lose weight (restrict calories) is terrifying. I literally cannot do that without it going into an unhealthy place. It's already hard to get atypical ana to be seen seriously, and to essentially be prescribed the diet that hurt me so much is terrifying. The second issue: people treat diabetes (specifically, type 2 and in some cases gestational) as a shameful disease that is your fault because of your weight. I want to be clear that I do not think there is anything inherently shameful about having diabetes of any type. It's just seen as this thing socially and I'm already hyper-aware of social perceptions of my body.
Back in 2021, my curiosity peaked when I found out about a company that gives CGMs to people who are higher weight. I decided to try it out- not in the sense of weight loss as this company wanted, exactly, but just to see how my body responds to various foods (especially to exercise). I didn't like the company itself as it demonized having blood glucose above 120 mg/dl in any capacity, even though it's totally normal / not an issue to have blood glucose go up to even 140 mg/dl or higher after meals. So I had a huge issue with how they wanted you to stay under 120 no matter what. But whatever. I didn't see anything then that was concerning to me except that when I do heavy cardio, I can get hypoglycemic, which I had already suspected but now how concrete data to say yes, it happens (glucose in the 40-50s mg/dl range).
The last time I had a "fasting" glucose level checked was about a year ago, when I had COVID and went to the hospital. I didn't have respiratory issues, but basically, the night I got sick, I got up to use the bathroom (feeling like I was going to throw up), and had a "near syncopal event" which isn't so much the issue as is the fact that when I felt like I might pass out, I collapsed onto the bathroom floor instead, and major muscles contracted and I couldn't move. Not full paralysis couldn't move, but my hands were contracted, I couldn't move my legs, etc. Rob was staying in his office (across the hall) as he had tested positive and we were trying to avoid me getting sick too. I was barely able to call him for help. He called paramedics, they brought me to the ED, I was able to move by then (it was about 45 min to an hour after), and then they did the CBC, CMP, etc. My glucose was slightly elevated at 108 mg/dl. My PCP wasn't too concerned- I was sick, and based on timing, she thought it was possible my body had pumped out some epinephrine which raises glucose a little bit.
The other day when I was rummaging for some AAA batteries, I found a (traditional) glucose meter and all the accessories. The strips weren't expired. I got curious last night and about 45 min after dinner decided to check my glucose. It was 114 mg/dl which is totally normal after a meal. But this had me very curious for this morning. So I decided to check it fasting again.
And this is where I got triggered, because it was higher than last night's post-meal value. At 116 mg/dl. I checked it again and it said 110 mg/dl. This seemed super weird to me, because that is very firmly "pre-diabetes" level, and I was kind of hungry. I found some old control solution, and tried that out... it read kind of high for the low control solution (60mg when it's supposed to be like 24-58 mg/dl) and low for the high one (like 214 mg/dl when it's supposed to be like 250-350 mg/dl). So my confidence in that meter is basically 0, but it still triggered that fear of developing diabetes.
Usually one-off readings like this aren't triggering in any way because I can explain it. If I was consistently eating high carb meals, okay. If there was evidence of delayed gastric emptying, okay. But my snack last night was vegetables + ranch dip (not many carbs at all), I've been quite active the past 5 weeks, and I even did a real calorie restriction where I was very meticulous for a couple weeks when I was worried about something going on with my thyroid. So by all accounts, my fasting glucose should be going down, not having a one-off high reading. I'm also not much heavier than I was last year- maybe a few lbs but it just feels very weird for there to be any impact on glucose and I just am confused by it.
I know not eating / skipping meals isn't going to do anything, but I'm just having a hard time actually getting myself to eat after this. It's irrational in every sense of the word, and I don't even know what I think will even happen (for example, glucose will not continue to drop with prolonged fasting, and I know this). So idk. I think it's more like, this feels like "permission." Like oh, if my glucose is actually high, nothing bad is going to happen if I just like, skip meals. Oh, you don't really need to eat unless your glucose is low. All BS but that's the only way I can explain this trigger.

21.04.23
two things!
1. i got accepted into the masters program i applied for!!! no more maths! im gonna be an econ major now lol. to be fair, ive complained about not wanting to do this for so long. but now that ive been accepted, im relieved. sure, im not passionate about economics, but at least im gonna have a masters degree.
also the funny thing is, i thought they didn't even consider my application bc on the website it said that if your application is incomplete they're not even gonna get back to you. and for mine, i didn't provide any proof that i speak english (i don't have like the toefl or the cambridge exam or whatever it's called that's required) and they asked for a logic text (gre) to which i replied with "umm i do maths đ
". so my application was very much incomplete. but i guess my cv and cover letter blew them away lol. i have to say, my career does look quite impressive on paper.
but now the next question is, do i really want to do this program? because on one hand, yes, it's very prestigious. like it's very much lse vibes, like rich kids in polo shirts and moccasins kinda vibe. and it probably will look good on my cv. but at the same time like it's really not my vibe and it's super theoretical so idk if it's gonna be useful to me personally. like from an outside perspective, yes, it's great to have a masters degree from this school. but is it gonna provide me with the skills im looking for for my dream career in particular?
(but at the same time most people who have my dream career are engineers. but i feel like im too superficial to be an engineer. so idk.)
another school im looking at is not prestigious at all, but it has a very practical approach that's gonna be more useful to me specifically. but also is it gonna be more useful? because the practical approach is basically you have to learn everything yourself + they require an internship as a part of your diploma. so there's very little theory at all and i do need theory. so idk. lot's of questions.
2. im getting my very own ice skates tomorrow from the super professional skating shop in a different city! we're going on a road trip with my student and my bestie and we're also gonna get like all the accessories necessary and maybe even costumes lol. im so excited!!! like i literally couldn't sleep because ahhhhhhh !!!!!!!!
i'll show you guys the skates im gonna get! they're gonna like measure my feet and customise them for me and everything, like im gonna be a professional skater! i wanna get the brand that sasha trusova has so that i can boast about it to my cousin but i'll see what fits me best.
also we had a really interesting meeting yesterday and it made me think a lot about like... how do different types of people present themselves and is the way you present yourself a sort of dogwhistle for certain groups of people. idk it was quite eye opening. like if im an econ major is it gonna give off a certain kind of message to the people i meet? what is it that i want to signal to people?
also i went to the back doctor bc my parents think that my back is crooked and i need to wear a corset. but shocker, my back is completely fine! the doctor said that im a bit asymmetrical, which is natural for most people. but i have good posture, no tension and everything's looking good. and the exercises i do for figure skating (because of course i told him that i skate lol) are good for me. my mum still doesn't believe it lol.
i had a dream about B. i was going to the rink (can you tell im obsessed with skating yet lol) and i got out of the tram and he was there on his bike. and he grabbed my hand like "i miss holding your hand" and i was like aww and he felt very warm. and then i got on the bus but it started going backwards. and i called B like "i still have some time before skating, wanna grab a coffee together" and he was like "jacky, it's not the same as before, do you understand? we can't have coffee together". and was like ouch. and then i went skating (in my dream i already had my new skates) and then i woke up.
#this skating obsession has taken over my life#my student is also gonna make me and my bestie members of the skating club#so that we can go to the rink any time we want#im living the dream you guys đ§ż#april

Top 9 Best Hamster Cages Of 2023 â Top Picks & Reviews
Before getting a new hamster, plan how youâll feed it, where itâll exercise, and what toys youâll play with. Theyâll also need a home, preferably an escape-proof, easy-to-clean cage with enough space to thrive.
Erin Ramsey, owner of Cheeks and Squeaks Hamsters, an ethical Syrian hamster breeder, says hamsters need the most space possible. âThe minimum should be 600 square inches of unbroken spaceâthis does not include the second levels. Studies show this, and in homes, they thrive in extra-large cages.â
Please note that these cages are too small and absolutely not the 24/7 home for your hamster. Consider them a dorm room where they sleep when youâre away. We recommend supervised exercise for hamsters.
1. Prevue Pet Products Hamster Cage â Best Overall:
The Prevue Pet Products is a large unit that is 3212âł wide and 1712âł deep. The cage is made of hard, durable plastic and has a solid wire exterior that lets your pet see out but keeps it safe inside. The space between the bars is only 3/8 of an inch, which is tight enough to keep your hamster from getting out.
There are two doors on the cage: one at the front and one at the top. The top entry point is great for making cleaning easy.
The base of the unit is also lowered, but the cage has a raised platform that acts as a second story. A ramp on the inside lets your hamster get in.
You should know that this unit is more expensive than most similar products. But if you want a solid option that will last for a long time, the Prevue is a good choice. Overall, we think this is one of the best hamster cages on the market in 2023.ProsCons
Large dimensions
Two maintenance-friendly doors
Sturdy build
Pricey
2. Habitrail Cristal Hamster Cage â Best Value
The Habitrail is a simple, inexpensive unit that makes it into our list of the best hamster cages for the money. The unit is 16âł x 10âł, but it can be linked to tubing to make the habitat much bigger.
It also comes with everything you need. The cage comes with a water bottle that wonât break if your pet chews on it and a strong hamster wheel that will keep your pet busy. Itâs easy to clean because it has a big access door.
The door of the cage can be a real problem, which is sad. It doesnât lock in very well, and you have to move the frame of the unit a little bit to make the locking mechanisms work. Because of this, it can be easy to leave the door open by accident.ProsCons
Affordable
Wheel and bottle.
Cleans easily
Door latches poorly.
3. Lixit Hamster Heaven Metro: Top Pick
The Lixit is a large hamster cage that is kind of like the penthouse. Itâs 31âł x 19âł, which is a lot of space for your hamster. The base is low and sunk in, so it has a lot of rooms for hamsters to play and exercise. The cage is also easy to clean and move because it has large doors and handles that are easy to hold.
The many accessories are definitely the main draw, though. The Lixit comes with two âhousesâ for your pet to sleep in, as well as tunnels, a wheel, and multiple platforms.
The unit is a lot more expensive than almost all other hamster wheels, which is a shame. But if you want your hamster to live in the lap of luxury, this is a good unit to think about.
To sum up, we think this is the best hamster cage out there if you want a high-end one.ProsCons
Large sizes (31â x 19â)
Cleans easily
Easy hold
Many built-in accessories
Very costly
4. Savic Hamster Heaven Metro Cage
Explore the fascinating Savic Hamster Heaven Metro Cage, packed to the gills with fun features to occupy your hamster. Your pet will have a blast digging in the bright, deep plastic base. This all-inclusive hamster cage features an exercise wheel, two comfortable hiding spots, a water bottle, and two feeding and drinking bowls.
Hang tasty treats and fun toys from the mesh wire top, and give your hamster a new way to explore its surroundings with the transparent tunnel. The cageâs detachable bottom and side handles make it simple to move from one location to another, and regular cleaning is a breeze. This is the playground of your hamsterâs dreams!
Dimensions: 31.5 x 20 x 20 inches | Weight: 12.17 pounds | Wiring Spacing: 0.4-inch | Whatâs Included: Tunnels, exercise wheels, 2 houses, a toilet, water bottle, 2 feeding bowls and moreProsCons
A variety of accessories are included.
Design that is fun and colorful
It has big carrying handles.
Complicated to put together
5. Midwest Critterville Arcade Hamster Cage
This hamster cage is in the style of a âarcadeâ because it has a lot of different ways for your pet to play. Itâs 18âł x 11âł, so itâs a good size for playing, but thereâs a lot more to say about its entertainment potential.
The main feature of the unit is a second level of play that the hamster can get to through a tunnel. There is an exercise wheel, a water bottle, and several platforms for the hamster to run around on in the extra space.
Itâs also made in a modular style, which means that you can add on to the habitat as much as you want with the right parts.
But there have been many reports of problems with the way it was made. The main complaint we hear from customers is that hamsters can open the cage door. People have fixed this problem by adding more wires, but itâs always best when the cage works the way it was meant to.ProsCons
Largely sized
Modular design
Cool accessories
Some hamsters escape easily.
6. Ferplast Favola Hamster Cage
The dimensions of the Ferplast Favola are 23.6âł x 14.4âł. The base is made of clear plastic and is deep, which makes it easy to borrow. It also has a second floor that is easy to get to thanks to a ramp. There is an exercise wheel, a food dish, a âhouse,â and a plastic water bottle on the second floor.
This is a modular unit, which means that with the right tubing, you can make it bigger. The quality of the accessories is very low, which is a shame. For one thing, most hamster breeds are too small to fit in them. Also, they arenât very well made, so they probably wonât hold up well against a chewing hamster.
All of these accessories can be replaced, but itâs better if they donât have to be.ProsCons
Acceptable as a loan
includes a second story for lots of scouting
In a modular fashion
Poorly made accessories.
7. Little Friends Grosvenor Hamster Cage
The size of the Little Friends is 33âł x 18.5âł. The top of the unit opens up so itâs easy to clean, and it comes with a variety of accessories to keep your pets entertained. The bottom is slightly sunken to make it easier for your hamster to dig. The top floor, which is reached by a ramp, has a house, wheel, food dish, and water bottle.
The space between the bars is only 1 cm, which makes it easy to care for a wide range of pets, like rats and chinchillas.
Unfortunately, cats might be able to get to the top access point. Users say that when cats sit on it, it sags, making it easy for their paws to fit through. Not everyone will have a problem with this, but for some, it can be a big problem.ProsCons
Simple to clean
There are a lot of accessories.
Build so that it works well for a wide range of pets.
Cats might be able to get into the cage
8. Ferplast Hamster Cage
The Ferplast is a moderately priced unit that comes with a lot of ways for your pet to have fun. With a size of 18.11âł x 11.61âł, it gives your hamster plenty of room to play, dig, and run around. Itâs easy to clean because you can open the top of the cage, but the accessories are what really sell it.
It comes with a wheel, food dish, âhouse,â and water bottle, as well as a variety of tubes for exploring.
Some users have said that the bottom is not well sealed, which is a shame. They noticed this when they saw urine and feces coming up from the bottom through cracks and crevices, which is definitely something you want to avoid.ProsCons
Reasonably priced
Dimensions are adequate.
There are numerous play accessories.
Inadequately sealed
9. Kaytee Crittertrail Quick Clean Habitat Hamster Cage
The Kaytee is a simple, inexpensive unit that is 16Ⳡwide and 10.5Ⳡtall. The bottom is made of clear plastic, so you can watch your hamster as it digs and plays. It is also easy to clean because it has a big door on the top and comes with a wheel, a dish, and a water bottle.
There are a few things to keep in mind. One thing is that the accessories arenât very good. The water bottle tends to leak the most.
Keep in mind that bigger hamsters may find it too small.ProsCons
Bottom is see-through
Simple to clean
Poorly made accessories
Some hamsters may find it too small.

A bunch of Ryley headcanons
I need to write these down before I forget them- just lil titbits of what I think would happen to and with him from living on 4546B for so long
It is most unlikely that he would simply be climbing up the mountains with his bare hands- as much as I acknowledge that this man is a feat of pure strength, I do struggle to believe that he can seriously scale the mountain island with his grubby mitts alone. I think that on the Alterra ship there was likely a few climbing harnesses, likely reserved for maintenance workers or the like, in a part of the ship that we cannot access in the game. As Ryley is essentially a janitor, he likely would have access to these. And when it comes to rope, this would likely be found in the same place. And more of a fun idea- what about if he had little spokes on the back of his heel made from stalker teeth that he could use to slide down slopes! Of course, he likely will need a climbing axe. This he could likely craft from various metal scraps and pipes.
The main hurdle I have with Ryley's improvements to his whole getup is that he needs to be aerodynamic, as he often has to do swimming. He normally wears a whole scuba kit with the rebreather/helmet etc... but if we were to say add useful accessories such as belts, built-in weapons, small pouches, etc.. then suddenly all of those aerodynamics are lost. Though more often he's in like a prawn suit/seamoth in the later-ish parts of the game, so this makes a bit of sense, as the introduction of exosuits and vehicles aligns with the introduction of new inventions and tools. Plus the area of 4546b he is on is a tropical climate, so everything has to be super lightweight and unobtrusive.
Now- considering his diet and lifestyle: Ryley lives on a 13-20% protein diet (considering that fish are 60-82% water and 1-20% fat) and that his daily doings are almost entirely swimming, which uses the entire body's worth of muscles, as well as retaining his breath AND scaling mountains, extreme heat, fighting off deadly creatures, traversing difficult landscapes, and surviving electrical shocks, radiation, overwhelming tropical climates, concussions, brain damage, a deadly bacterial infection, just to name a few. Essentially, he is built different. This means that he will be burning calories, and consequently fat, at an astronomically high pace. This man has to be utterly shredded. It is not until late-ish game that he *might* gain carbohydrate-based fuel (marblemelons and lantern fruit) so by living an INCREDIBLY protein-rich keto diet while practicing strenuous exercise, he is likely to gain muscle mass. Hence, his physical appearance will most likely change from how it was at the beginning of the game. The body is incredibly fickle, and I know it's incredibly hard to show this in a video game! Seeing as he spends at least 7 days on 4564B (including average un-glitched speedruns) this diet is sustained for long periods, which will prove drastic results, for better or for worse.
AND considering that Ryley's PDA at the beginning of the game is completely reset, there are likely hundreds of blueprints missing that would have normally been on his PDA, seeing as the PDA system is one that houses all kinds of tools, both from Alterra and outside sources (Mongolians, sunbeam, etc...) he likely would have even more things to find and build that we, the player, might not be able to. I mean, take the large amount of Below Zero items that aren't in the original game! Goodness knows what's out there... and seeing as he is an engineer/janitor, he likely has experience in handiwork, so upcycling junk he finds is very likely in his DNA! I would imagine him living much like Maida, using bits of junk and handiwork to craft a lifestyle designed to survive the harshest conditions and defend against the worst of the worst.
And also- he most definitely made some panpipes to keep himself occupied, like imagine the soft whistle of panpipes echoing off the two mountains of the floating island at sunset... sweeeeeeet
#subnautica oc#subnautica#ryley#ryley robinson#ryley robinson subnautica#headcanon#head canon#brain fart#i need to actually do something productive for once#marguerit maida#subnautica below zero#below zero#we getting into the science boys#subnautica sunbeam#trashion#get urself a man who does diy and makes it look good#hes not just a janitor hes a boss babe

Chapter Nine: The Party
Friday October 11, 1985
Homecoming came quicker than expected and the entire school was beaming with school pride: everyone was wearing their Hawkins shirts or their green shirts. The girls had all green and gold accessories and makeup on today. And all the extra effort was worth it because the best part is we won! 28-21. You were waiting on Robin and Ali to finish getting ready since you decided to wear a simple costume this year since itâs not even Halloween yet. You were wearing a slinky black dress, black stockings and heels with an old witchâs hat from a number of Halloweens ago. Ali and Robin were going as Claire and Allison from The Breakfast Club so they were layering their outfits while you started on makeup.
âSo predictions on who is gonna hook up with whom?â you ask, looking in the mirror while you apply eyeshadow. The music in the background was fast and upbeat, Ali having chosen the I Love Rock and Roll album.Â
âWell John from French class was eying Madeline so I bet he makes a move tonight.â Ali noted as she adjusted her ankle length brown skirt.
âBlonde haired John or Soccer team John?â Robin asked.
âBlonde John,â Ali says.
âNo shit!â you and Robin say.
âSaw it while they were conjugating verbs last Tuesday.â Ali said
âI think that Ben from Chem will finally ask out Samantha Greer.â Robin said.
âThe choir girl?â you ask.
âYep.â Robin said.
âOh theyâd be cute together,â you say.
âYou know who else would be cute together? You and Eddie Munson.â Ali said.
âOh my god yes. The King and Queen of The Freaks,â Robin said, spreading her hands out like she was announcing a movie pitch.
âYouâre relentless, you two.â you say.
âAnd youâre an idiot who canât see the obvious thing right in front of her!â Ali retorts, putting in her earrings.
âWeâre friends!â you try.
âWho are totally into each other. Face it: heâs your Steve and youâre acting like Ali.â Robin said.
âOuch!â Ali said, hitting Robin lightly.
âBut you see my point?â Robin asks
âI suppose so but I barely know him,â you say.
âGet to know him then!â Ali said.
âI have been getting to know him or trying to but okay fine: I do like Eddie but I have to make sure, without a doubt, that heâs gonna be one that staysâ you say.
âI get that. How can we help?â Ali asked as she adjusted her pink blouse.Â
âJust promise me not to let me get so wrapped up in him that I end up looking like a fool.â you ask.
âOf course dear,â Ali said.
âWeâve got you honey,â Robin said. You finish getting ready, deciding on a dark eye look for the night hoping to come off as mysterious.and witchy. Robin looked adorable in her black cardigan and skirt with black converse: the ultimate comfy and cute look. Ali was working on her makeup at the moment since she just needed to put on her slouchy brown boots.
âFive bucks says Eddie is gonna steal Y/N away tonight at some point.â Robin says.
âYouâre making a pointless bet: Iâm gonna see him at some point anyways since he was the first one to invite me to this party,â you point out as you go through Aliâs albums before deciding on Queenâs Sheer Heart Attack album. The whimsical opening sounds of Brighton Rock blasting through her speakers.
âI give it an hour,â Ali said, holding out her hand.Â
âI give her 30 minutes,â Robin countered, shaking on their bet. You rolled your eyes as you got down on the bed again, laying down while you waited for them, singing along to each track. The girls joined in on a rendition of Killer Queen as they finished their makeup.
âAlright we ready?â Robin asked as she grabbed her car keys. Ali was pulled on her boots and nodded at Robin.
âIâm good,â you say. Once Ali had her boots on and everything was situated, you three headed out the door and into the car. You sat in the back and they took the front seats. Robin turned on the car and Madonna was blasting through the car as you girls started to sing along. The drive was supposed to be only 15 minutes so it wasnât too bad.
âSo is your boyfriend gonna make an appearance tonight?â you ask.
âYes he;s gonna meet us there just in case we get too drunk to drive.â Ali said.
âAww what a sweet Mother Goose he is,â you say with a laugh.
âHe is really sweet.â Ali agreed.
âIâm really happy for you Als. Like seriously.â you say earnestly.
âThanks Y/N. You know we want that for you too right?â Ali said with the same amount of conviction in her voice.
âI know.â you say with a soft smile in the darkness. You arrive at where you suspect the party is based on the music and how many cars are parked down the street. You park a ways down and note how many people are here.
âAre we sure this is a good idea?â you ask as you are walking up to the house, nerves getting the best of you.
âYeah. Why wouldnât it be?â Ali asked.
âYeah Y/N. It's gonna be fun. Just us, some shots, dancing, seeing our friends. I promise itâll be fun.â Robin said.
âYouâre right; Iâm just being paranoid for some reason.â you admit as you walk up the entryway to the house. Ali opens the doors and the house is packed with people all in costume. A lot of people were dressed as Greeks, movie characters or just dressed in their sports outfits. You smiled at how they decorated the place with black and orange streamers and a fog machine but also had a banner in big bold letters saying CONGRATULATIONS TIGERS! WAY TO GO!
You three immediately made a beeline for the kitchen, making a human chain to ensure not losing each other. Once you get to the kitchen and find bottles of booze just lined up along the kitchen counter. Ali takes some shot glasses and washes them out before pouring up some shots. You clinked glasses and drank down the clear, fiery liquid.
âAnother?â Robin asked.
âAnother.â you say smiling as she pours up the shots. You down them in a quick procession, grimacing as the liquor goes down your throat.
âDo you want to dance?â Robin asked.
âI wanna make a drink first,â Ali said, already having a bottle of rum in her hand already.
âMake me one too?â you ask. Ali nods as she pour rum and New Coke into a pair of glasses. She handed you yours and cheers-ed before taking a big drink and going to the âdance floorâ in the living room. The group was dancing to Take On Me by A-ha, having the time of your lives. You hadnât been to a party since last year so it was absolutely thrilling to let loose and have a good time. The song ended and changed to a Michael Jackson song.
âHey I just saw Vickie walk in. Iâm gonna go talk to her for a bit. Are you gonna be okay?â Robin asked, pointing in her direction. You nodded and smiled at her with a thumbs up. Ali soon followed her after dancing to a few more songs, seeing Steve show up. Duran Duran started playing and you smiled, taking a drink out of your cup while you swayed to the beat and moved your hips and arms. You finally felt free again and you loved it.
Until you feel a pair of unfamiliar hands place themselves on your waist.Â
âHey there, sexy . Can I have this dance?â a voice said from behind you. You tense up a little bit and immediately feel anxious since you didnât know the guy.
âUmmâŠâ
âOh come on, Miss Witch. I just helped carry home a win for us. Least you owe me is a dance,â he said in your ear. You shivered out of uncertainty.
âFine.â you say, unsure of what would happen if you didnât. The entire time, his grip on your hips was too tight and uncomfortable. His breath on your neck smelled like beer and it reeked of pot and something else. You looked desperately for your friends, who were unfortunately busy with their crushes. You tried to fake happiness when one hand left your waist, hoping he would be leaving.
âSo whatâs your name, Miss Witch?â
âLaura,â you lie, not trusting him one bit.
ââWell Laura, do you want a drink?â he asked.
âNo, I already have one,â you say.
âWant another one?â he said, trying to sound sexy and coming off sleazy.
âNo thanks. Iâm trying to pace myself.â you reply.
âSuit yourself,â he says, returning his hand to your waist. The next few minutes felt like the longest of your life as you waited for the song to end. When it did end, you immediately came up with a plan.
âHey stud Iâve gotta pee. Meet me in the kitchen?â you say coyly.
âHell yeah baby!â he said as he raced to the kitchen. As soon as he walked away, you made a point to lose yourself in the crowd to avoid the creepâs gaze and downed the rest of your drink but you almost spit it out because it was either watered down or something just tasted off. More metallic than before. You immediately swallowed it and made a beeline for the patio doors, letting yourself out and closing it behind you. You immediately started to feel warmer and anxious after that interaction so you took a deep breath to calm yourself, thanking your Deity for your quick thinking. After a minute of deep breathing, you headed out to the back to see who all was out here. There was a little bit of everyone here tonight so you were happy to be able to blend in. You saw a big cloud of smoke coming from 50 feet away so you started to make your way out of it. The walk was a little wobbly from the heels and the alcohol but you made it to the source of the smoke and you were so glad you did because, as promised, there was your favorite person sitting by the bonfire laughing with his friends wearing just a pair of overalls, no shirt with his tattoos on full display. You started to make your way towards him, leaves crunching under your feet. The sound caught their attention and as soon as Eddie saw you, he smiled wider under the joint in his mouth.
âY/N! You found me!â Eddie said smiling as you were in ear shot.
âHi guys. Howâs the evening? How was Hellfire?â you ask as you go towards Eddie to sit next to him.
âItâs going well. Hellfire was fucking rad! We got to fight a small army and won!â Gareth said, taking a drink of his beer.
âWell Iâm glad it worked out well. Maybe Iâll sit in on a session one day and see how you run a campaign if thatâs okay.â you say sitting next to Eddie.
âOf course Princess. Iâm more than happy to show you the ropes if you ever wanna guest playâ Eddie said with a smile.
âSo howâs your night going Y/N?â Jeff asked.
âItâs okay. I lost my friends to their crushes so I danced for a while until this jerkoff jock forced me to dance with him,â you say with a shiver.
âWhat?â Grant said with wide eyes and an open mouth.
âWhich one?â Eddie asked with a clenched fist, rings prominently visible and his bare chest visibly raising and falling rapidly.
âI donât know. I tried not to look at him, gave him a fake name and told him I had to pee before I came out here.â you say with a slur, the alcohol starts to take its effects.
âSmart move!â Jeff said as the other agreed.
âYouâre with me the rest of the night, got it?â Eddie said look at you with a serious expression.
âYou wonât hear me complaininââ you say. You fade out of the conversation for a bit, watching the bonfire burn. You think about simple thoughts like what you would eat when you got home, how youâd maybe watch some tv or listen to music. You wondered if Robin was doing well with Vickie and what Ali had planned for her and Steve. You are pulled from your thoughts when a gentle hand touches your shoulder. You turn to your right and see Eddie looking at you quizzically. His touch feels amazing for some reason.
âYou okay?â Eddie asks.
âI donât know; I feel kind of weirdâ you say.
âWhat do you mean?â Eddie asks, full attention turning to you.
âI mean I feel drunk but also tired but then itâs like Iâm fine,â you say. Eddie hands you a lit joint he had just rolled and sparked.
âTry hitting this once or twice. Small hitsâ Eddie said. You take the joint and take a few small hits before passing it to your left to Gareth. You sit there for a minute or two focusing on your breathing.
âOkay, at the risk of sounding like an asshole, how much did you have to drink tonight Y/N?â Eddie asks as gently as he can.
â2 shots and a rum and coke.â you slur
âWho made it?â Eddie asks.
âAli did.â you say. Eddie was quiet for a minute or two, clearly deep in thought as he hit the joint Grant passed him. His eyebrows creased in thought, he finally turns back to you.
âWere you dancing with your drink in your hand?â Eddie asks. You had to think for a moment before nodding. Eddie passes the joint to Gareth, skipping you and causing you to pout.
âDid you drive?â Eddie asks. You shook your head no.
âR-R-Robin did. Whatâs with all the que-questions?â you slur, rolling the R in Robinâs name.
âOKay. Iâm gonna take her home guys,â Eddie said to his friends who nodded in an agreed understanding. Eddie stood up and moved in front of you, offering his hands to help you up. You grabbed his hands and he helped pull you up to your feet as gracefully as you could manage. He moves a hand to your side where his arm is wrapped around you, to balance you and you do the same.
âHow are you feeling? Can you walk?â Eddie asked as you started to nod. You two started to make your way back to the patio entry. Your walk was a little wobbly but you were okay in Eddieâs hands. He slid open the patio door for you and went through first, offering his hand to pull you through. The party was still bumping so you and Eddie easily slid through the crowd undetected as you searched for your friends. Eddie spotted the pair sitting comfortably on the couch talking to another couple. He led the way over to them.
âHey Roberts.â Eddie said, grabbing Aliâs attention to him and you. You could see concern written all over her face.
âHey guys, everything okay? What happened?â Ali asked.
âNo, justâŠnot here. I can explain tomorrow but just trust me, I need to get Y/N out of here NOW.â Eddie said calmly. At these words, Steveâs attention snapped to the conversation.
âYouâre sure youâve got her? We can take her if you want to stay.â Steve said with raised eyebrows, his protectiveness over his friend coming out.
âYeah Iâve got her. Stay here with your girl and have fun, Harrington. I hate these kinds of parties anyways.â Eddie says.
âOkay if youâre absolutely sure man. Just please donât leave her by herself.â Steve said.
ââI wonât. Iâll sleep on the floor with her dog if I have to,â Eddie said.
âY/N, Iâm coming over tomorrow first thing to check on you,â Ali said looking at you as you nodded at her. âI love you Y/N/Nâ
âI lubb you tew Ali and Steeb,â you say as Eddie leads you to the front door and opens it for you to go first before closing it and going back to your side.Â
âMy van is like a block that way so the walk shouldnât be too bad,â Eddie said, helping you get down the stairs.
âOkay Eddie. Are you mad at me?â you ask suddenly, hitting the magical level of fucked up where you say whatever comes to your mind.
âWhereâd you get that idea from Princess?â Eddie asks.
âEarlier when you asked about my drinking.â you say.
âY/N I want you to be safe. You can have fun, Iâm not saying you canât, but tonightâŠâ Eddie stopped himself, deciding not to say it.
âI was fine until that jerk wouldnât let me go.â you whine, getting to the final step.Â
âI know, pretty girl,â Eddie said softly.Â
âI just wanted to dance by myself or withâŠâ This time itâs you who stops talking but Eddie has other plans.
âWith who?â Eddie asks with something different behind his voice. Jealous? Possessiveness?
âI wanted to dance with you honestly.â you admit.
âAww you wanna slow dance with me?â he asks teasingly and that does it for you.
âYou donât have to make fun of me! I know itâs stupid and I donât need you to help either at making me feel it,â you say as tears start to prick your eyes, threatening to fall.
âWhoa hey Y/N I didnâtââ
âJust donât then Eddie. I just wanna go home now,â you say, walking faster now, dropping your hand from around him to get away from him. Eddie watched from a second as you sped up, heels clicking loud and fast as you looked for his van. He wanted to kick himself right now for upsetting you; he just didnât believe that out of all the guys at school, you wanted him. He wasnât used to being picked first, let alone at all. He picked up the pace and caught up with you effortlessly. Within minutes, you reached the van in silence as Eddie wordlessly opened the door for you and helped you settle in. You put on your seatbelt as Eddie got in the van and started it, taking off at a slower pace for Eddie. For the first part, you looked out the window as the town started to pass you by and it didnât take long to figure out just where you were going.
âPlease donât take me to the hospital,â you say seeing a sign for it on the road.
âWhy not Y/N? That prick put drugs in your drink and we need to get them out of you before it really causes some fucking damageâ Eddie asks.
âMy mom works there as a nurse so if I show up to her work like this, Iâm dead.â you say.
âSo what? You want me to take you home where you could possibly OD in your sleep?â Eddie rambles.
âI donât know Eddie! Iâm fucking scared, Iâm feeling tired and I just want to sleep,â you say.
âFine. Iâll take you home but youâve got another thing coming if you think Iâm leaving you alone tonight,â Eddie states, turning right to start heading to your house instead.
âYou can do whatever the hell you please,â you say, crossing your arms like a child. Eddie exhaled, trying to not laugh at you in this state right now as he looked back at the road.
âIâm gonna find that asshole who did this to you and kick his fucking ass,â Eddie said lowly, more to himself. You decide it best not to answer as you try to think of when he couldâve done that to your drink but the drugâs effects were already at work, causing you to doubt yourself and just forget. It really frustrated you that you couldnât remember. You felt like a scared child and you hated it.
âWhat are you thinking right now? Talk to meâ Eddie asked, when he was a few minutes away from your home. You had been muttering to yourself for a solid minute now and he had had enough, You looked at him in tears and he immediately softened.
âI want my Uncle Dave. He would know what to do,â you say as the tears fall down. Eddieâs heart hurts for a moment seeing it. He so badly wants to do anything to make you feel better.
âWeâre a few minutes away from your house. What would you like me to do Y/N?â Eddie asked as he grabbed your hand, rubbing circles on the top of it.
âCall him,â you cry softly as Eddies nods. He lets you cry for a moment while he holds your hand and then he starts to sing along to the radio.
âI get this feeling I may know you as a lover and a friend. But this voice keeps whispering in my other ear, Tells me I may never see you again cause I get a peaceful, easy feeling that I know you wonât let me down cause Iâm already standing on the ground. â Eddie sings as you try to focus on him. He pulled into your spot in the driveway and parked, undoing his seatbelt and getting out of his side. You do the same, getting out and immediately feeling super drowsy and gross. Eddie places his arm around you and walks up to your door.
âKey?â he asks.
âUnder the fairy,â you say. Eddie picks up the fairy ornament by the potted plant, grabs the key and unlocks the door before replacing the key under the fairy. You walk in and kick off your heels moaning from the relief as Norm rushes to your side, excited to see you.
âGo get some pajamas on and Iâll be up with some water here in a few minutes,â Eddie says as you nod, going up the stairs. Eddie went to the kitchen to the wall phone and looked for an address book. Luckily for him, the number was pinned next to the phone on a chalkboard. He dialed the number and waited. One ringâŠtwoâŠthree, four, five rings, sixâŠsevenâŠ
âHello? Jameson residence, Dave speaking,â a groggy voice answered.
âDave? Hey I donât know if you remember me from a few weeks ago but this is Eddie Munson, Y/Nâs friend?â Eddie started.
âEddie Munson?â Dave groaned over the phone, clearly trying to wake up and pay attention to the conversation at hand.
âYeah Y/Nâs friend. Look I wouldnât have called this late but itâs an emergency. I think Y/N got roofied at a party tonight and sheâs scared. She wouldnât let me take her to the hospital; insisted on coming home and sheâs crying out for you. She told me to call you.â Eddie said, exhaling at the end. He could hear shuffling in the background and slight whispers.
âOkay Eddie. Get her to drink water, lots of it, and try to get her to throw it up. Everything. Iâm on my way and Iâll be there soon. Iâm five minutes away,â Dave says.
âOkay Dave thank you,â Eddie says as they hang up the phone. He went into the actual kitchen and got together a glass of water and a bag of frozen peas in case you got overheated. He looked around for aspirin but couldnât find any so he went up to your room where he found you lying on your bed in shorts and a Black Sabbath shirt.Â
âHey angel. How are you feeling after getting out of that dress?â Eddie asked.
âYeah a little betterâ you say into your pillows.
âOkay good. Can you sit up for me and drink some water?â Eddie asked sweetly. You complied, sitting up with a groan and taking the water from him. You took a few big gulps and sighed.
âGood girl. Now I need to try and get that disgusting stuff out of you.â Eddie said.
âYou meanâŠâ
âYeah sadly I do,â Eddie says as you groan, âGotta get all that shit outta your body, baby girl. I know it sucks but we gotta do it. If it helps, Uncle Daveâs on his way.â
âYou called him?â you say, feeling sheepish.
âYep, heâll be here any minute. I feel like you might listen to him more than me but he might have a lecture ready,â Eddie said. You sigh, nodding before getting up and going to the bathroom, locking the door behind you while you take care of yourself.
When Eddie went back downstairs to get himself a glass of water, he heard a key in the door and Norm barking. He looked through the open doorway and saw a long haired man walk in, greeting Norm with some pats. His black and gray tattoos on both sleeves on full display with his tank top and sweatpants. Eddie could tell he grabbed the first thing he had thrown on.
âHey kidâ Dave said, seeing Eddie in the kitchen.
âHey thanks for coming. Sheâs in the bathroom right now and she drank about a third of her water so far,â Eddie informed.
âThanks for the call. Howâs she doing?â Dave asked, walking to the kitchen.
âSheâs pretty shaken earlier but she seems okay for now, now that sheâs home but knowing Y/N, sheâs hiding how sheâs really feeling,â Eddie admitted.
âYeah she has always done that. Sheâs never been one to trust people easily so thatâs why Iâm glad she was able to at least trust you when in this situation. Thanks kid. I can take it from here if youâve got places to be,â Dave said.
âI actually donât. Would it be alright if I stayed? I probably wonât be able to sleep very well tonight if I donâtâ Eddie admitted again, not wanting to seem like heâs overstaying his welcome.
âI respect that. How about you take my nephewâs room? He should have some sleep clothes you can borrow,â Dave said, pointing at the room across from yours. Eddie nodded as they heard Y/N open the bathroom door open and shuffle up to her room. Eddie sighed.
âYou got her this far man. You did good, kid, now go rest up. I can watch her,â Dave said with a smile as Eddie nodded, starting up the stairs. âOh and Eddie?â
âYeah?â
âSick Eddie Van Halen costumeâ Dave said with a laugh.

đŠKirishima HCâsđŠ
Absolutely no one asked for this i just like him a lot
Heâs an adult in all of these. 20s-30s at least. Some NSFW because Iâm a big perv. Minors do not interact. Shoo.
- - - - -
General:
He is in the dictionary under Himbo, right next to Kronk.
Works part-time as a fitness instructor before making a name for himself as a pro hero. Most of his clients are middle-aged women, because he makes people feel safe. Before long, word gets around and he amasses this like. Loyal army of jacked housewives and older ladies who are his biggest possible fans. They mother-hen him like crazy.
Has a large and complicated extended family. Lots of cousins. You will never learn all their names, donât even try. I have no idea if his parents have canon occupations but no matter what Horikoshi says, they actually own a mountain onsen. Kirishima went to the city by himself to go to middle/high school, his family is all off in the country somewhere and he gets homesick a lot but never admits it. Heâs broke for a long time even after making it as a pro hero, because he sends most of his money back home.
Heâs a dog dad. You cannot, WILL not convince me otherwise. Big dogs. Small dogs. Fancy dogs. Ugly dogs. He has a whole pack. He calls them all baby, sweetie, pupper, the worst and most embarrassing baby talk. Tells them about his day. All of his furniture is wrecked. Heâs an active member in online dog groups, where he is careful to use a pseudonym and never show his face, but eventually people are going to figure out that Red Riotâs dogs look an awful lot like this one userâs....
Heâs in a casual taiko group, always on the o-daiko. Loves participating in festivals and parades. He has never, ever, not once, worn a shirt while drumming. Probably has been gifted at least one antique taiko drum for his hero work, and he keeps it in his house but is too afraid to play it because itâs scary valuable âuhh itâs definitely hauntedâ
Regularly goes out drinking. Socially and responsibly, like clockwork, always with the same people. Heâs a goddamned lightweight, and no one understands why. Will mope if he has to miss a night out at the izakaya.
So heâs clean, but sloppy. House looks like a tornado ripped through it, and nothing he owns matches. Not a single thing. I mentioned the dogs.
Will absolutely use âmanlyâ as a replacement for âawesome,â and will constantly tell you how manly you are. Your actual gender is a non-issue. If you hang out with him for more than five minutes youâre manly as hell now.
He cries a lot? Sometimes itâs for show but he gets genuinely misty-eyed over the dumbest things. Do NOT show him pictures of puppies.
Heâs good at braiding hair. His or yours. When his hair isnât hardened, he likes doing all kinds of wacky stuff with it. He usually keeps it long enough for braids, ponies, buns, quirk-assisted faux-hawks, whatever. Mina has given him many bad ideas. He will definitely steal your hair bands and accessories, if you use them.
His fridge is just like, meat and beer. He will, if forced, consume perhaps one single vegetable. Unfortunately, his B.O. reflects this. God bless him - he showers and bathes daily, because he works out a lot and is just generally hygienic. But donât ever touch his socks barehanded.
He wears the cheapest, most predictable cologne you can imagine, the kind that comes in an aerosol can and punches a hole in the ozone every time he sprays his pits. It smells stupidly good on him. How. so fucking manly. you kind of hate him for getting away with it.
- - - - -
And now, the đ¶ Spicy Ones đ¶
Does not date or hook up much; wants a serious relationship.
Has a tough time getting dates, weirdly. Heâs still secretly insecure, but mostly heâs got rocks for brains and never knows how to flirt. He ends up friendzoning most of the people interested in him, because he is, in fact, a little too chivalrous for his own good and can never make the first move. Heâs an emotional open book, but clueless romantically. I recommend being extremely straightforward. Draw him a map if you have to.
Is afraid to kiss you too deeply because of the teeth. Will take a lot of gentle encouragement to get him comfortable, but once he knows youâre safe, heâs going to be kissing you all the time. Like, too much. People are gawking, Kiri, for Godâs sake.
He radiates massive doses of husband/dad energy. Will immediately marry the hell out of you. If you are capable of and willing to have his children, you are going to get extremely pregnant. Very quickly. Not necessarily a breeding kink (though why not), he just really wants to start a family with you.
Heâs Big. Just huge. Tall and broad, and also... his dick is a summit and you will need to prepare for the climb. Heâs had problems in the past because no, not everybody wants ALL THAT inside them. That said, if you can handle it? Woof.
Hard as a rock is No Joke with this man. Can and WILL use his quirk on his dick. If you donât think thatâs the first thing he mastered as a teenager I dont know what to tell you. Ever used a glass dildo? Well buckle up cuz itâs like if a massive glass dildo whispered sweet nothings in your ear and held you close in big strong arms and fucked you till you cried. Itâs a sometimes thing. Otherwise youâd simply pass away.
He loves your brains. Your smarts and wit are a huge turn on, and he gets a boner when you use a word he doesnât know. He also loves fucking your brains completely out, so that you cant use any words at all.
Heâs a devout church-going body-worshipper. Heâs so jacked thatâs itâs constantly intimidating, like, how dare you stand next to this chiseled statue of a man?! but whether you love power-lifting with him or would rather die than exercise, heâs gonna treat you like the prettiest fucking piece of cake on planet earth.
Size kink ahoy; he gets his big grabby mitts on you... and you psychologically lose three feet. Doesnât matter how tall or small or fat or thin you are, you are getting groped, squeezed, and manhandled. You didnât even know it was possible to get thrown around like that; always onto something soft.
Not dominant. Not unless you ask very, very nicely. had a brief pushy phase at the peak of his teenage manliness obsession, unconsciously trying to be more like Bakugou, but he quickly realized controlling people wasnât really him. It certainly isnât very manly. Doesnât want any toxic masculinity in his love life, even as roleplay.
That said, he can and will be a soft dom, if thatâs what you want. After some practice, heâd get pretty good at it too. But his natural sexual groove is goofy, a bit awkward. Usually finds a non-sexual excuse to touch you at first; prepare to get tickled a lot. If you sit in his lap itâs all over.
If you get dominant with him, even a little, heâs gonna turn to putty in your hands. Go ahead and boss that big dumb puppy around. Nothing turns him on like seeing you get exactly what you want.
Youâll have morning wood pressed up against your ass. Every damn day. He might hump and grope you in his sleep, moaning a little. Usually it just wears off. If you wake him up to fuck, heâll have no idea whatâs going on but will be like âhell yeah i guess this is happeningâ
Gives oral like a starving man. Has absolutely zero reservations, because he knows his tongue and hands canât hurt you. Will be as loud and messy as possible. If you get embarrassed or shy about it, heâs going to mumble sweet talk directly into your junk until your teeth fall out.
Heâs vocal in bed. Growly. A moaning groaning disaster. He says the sweetest, gentlest things... has the cleanest dirty talk youâve ever heard, but tenderness filtered through his bourbon-barrel chest comes out all dark and rumbly, especially when heâs close. you feel his âI love youâ in your bones
He thinks making his partner cum is the manliest thing he can do. Any orgasm is good, but if you cum untouched on his dick, heâll be riding that high for days

i canât drown my demons they know how to swim
This started off as a conversation I had with Jas (@jaspxr) that spiralled into... this. I don't know how either but if we have to have the mental image, so do you. It got slightly long so itâs under the cut. Fair warning, itâs ridiculous.
The worst shoes Hotch owns are buried at the back of his closet for a good 350+ days of the year, and the only reason he keeps them is because Jack has similar ones and would absolutely notice if they were gone.
He got them on holiday one year, when Jack had needed cheap shoes for the beach (he liked to swim but hated the way sand clung to his feet) from one of those shops selling awful quality cheap beach products.
And Jack had naturally seen a similar pair in adult sizes and, well. It was a ridiculously simple way to make his son a little bit happier and it was just for the holiday. Also, there were tourists in worse so he could pretend the shoes were less awful.
Over the course of the holiday Jack finds accessories for his own shoes in that shop (Hotch is regretting not ending up in literally any of the others) which then means he has to find them for his dad, too. It's a very sweet gesture and he's glad his son has manners like that, but if he could exercise it at any other timeâ
They get back and the shoes go into the closet until the next holiday somewhere like that.
And then Hotch has to get some minor surgery on his foot or his ankle (maybe because he drives like he's trying to give an orthopaedic surgeon nightmares) and he can't wear tight shoes due to the bandages and the swelling. 'Tight' shoes unfortunately manage to include his sneakers and actually pretty much all the shoes he owns. Which isn't many.
...except The Shoes.
Because it's only a small operation he's got a couple of days at home (not without taking paperwork he can do because his foot is hardly going to interfere with his ability to think, is it?) and then he'll be back to work fine. Just not while the only shoes he can wear are those.
Then he gets a call from Strauss at eleven at night. There's some minor emergency â maybe something about a data breach, someone gaining access to confidential FBI systems â which to everyone except the BAU is actually major, given their benchmark for "not major" is nobody is imminently or actively dying. Regardless, they still need him there.
He gets dressed as usual except he doesn't even try his normal shoes over the bandages, and his trainers are just too tight to be comfortable. So it's The Shoes. Just because he loves Jack does not mean he doesn't recognise that they are objectively awful and given the opportunity to do so without hurting him, he would gladly watch them burn. The juxtaposition with a suit does not help.
It's late at night and there will be fewer people around than normal and he can blame it on his surgeon. And the annoyance being woken up for a meeting which he's beginning to gather is more about being lectured for a while than actual achieving anything is starting to show. People notice his shoes but they're wise enough not to mention it.
Hotch gets to the rest of them in their conference room and sits down before they notice, taking advantage of none of them expecting to see him. It works whilst they're all sat down.
He stands up. He goes to leave. The shoes make the same ridiculously loud sqeaky noise they always do, which is almost as offensive as their appearance.
"I think that might be yours?" Reid says, offering him one of the accessories which had apparently decided that the optimal moment to fall off was right now. Because of course it had. As if it could belong to anyone in the room but him.
Derek is just looking, taking in the shoes then glancing up at him with a pointed expression. Emily is losing it, JJ isn't far behind, and Dave just looks confused.
Hotch would be mad if those weren't all entirely appropriate reactions toâcalling them shoes seems like an insult to actual shoes. He's mostly just resigned to it.
"Is thatâ" Emily has to catch her breath. "âis that weed?"
"Why one sock?" Derek says. He answers that one because then he doesn't have to tell Emily she's right, that the little foam pin they're tossing around is the shape of marijuana leaves because someone somewhere decided that was a good idea.
"The other doesn't fit," Hotch says.
"But, but, one?" JJ says. "That's worse!"
"Sir, crocs with socks just does not work on anyone."
"I'm not sure you can make those worse," Dave says thoughtfully.
Reid waits for the wave of laughter to almost die down before he corrects, "Crocs with sock."
At least it's too late for someone to come wandering into their unit only to find six agents losing their minds over the word 'sock' and a seventh looking at his shoes with a disdain most unsubs weren't even worthy of.
That, and bright teal crocs with a jumbled assortment of foam pins pressed through the holes. and really he's just glad the weed one (Jack shows him a handful: "âan' I found you a plant, an' this oneâ") is distracting them from the rest.
"I didn't feel like explaining marijuana to a five-year-old!"
"Why is that even a thing?" "Who sat around and thought, you know what I need, that?" "I'm guessing he was high, pretty boy." "Whoever he is, he deserves a drink just for this."
"It was that or yellow," Hotch explains. And then: "Because Jack wanted matching onesâdon't look at me like thatâand I can't get rid of them."
That makes it worse because then they find it sweet and horrible at the same time and heâs regretting not pretending he was asleep when the call came in
Theyâve almost forgotten about it by the time heâs actually back to work. All of them except Penelope, whose get-well card includes a new charm in the shape of a tiny little tie.
Jack may or may not purloin that for his own crocs
Again I have no idea how we ended up coming up with this but I went onto the crocs website for this. My pinterest is full of crocs. Send help The things you get on crocs are called charms (I hate that I know this now) and yes, the weed one (âhemp leafâ) is the highest selling one. Thereâs also an aubergine, wine, and a peach fairly high. I wish I was lying
Also the colours mentioned are real. Neon yellow and sludge green/brown were a strong contender for colours to make The Shoes and you should probably thank @jaspxr that theyâre only teal haha

neccio đđ
if you thought i wouldn't make an annoying evil oc for @sand-worms evil oc who has no lore, you were wrong <3 under the cut for length
Real Name: LĂ©opold Jean-Marie Benjamin Francisque Noel
Alias: Neccio
Age: 39 (as of 2001)
Date of Birth: December 24, 1962
Place of Birth: Yvelines, France
Zodiac Sign: Capricorn
Gender: Male
Pronouns: They/them exclusively
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Height: 6 ft
Face: Picrew link
Eyes: Light brown
Hair: Their hair is loose and wavy, and long enough that it passes their mid back. They normally wear it loose, and their bangs are asymmetrical, with one side a lot longer to the point that it brushes their shoulder, and the other right above their eye. Itâs a forest green, with the tips dyed a fire brick red.
Makeup: None, isnât against it, just doesnât really care enough to learn how to wear it
Scars: Theyâre absolutely covered in scars, especially in the arm and torso area, simply because they get stabbed a lot. Neccio also has one over their eye as a result of getting into relatively big fight when they were 17.
Tattoos: They have a tattoo on the back of each of their hands that is a snake head that lacks any color, surrounded by holly branches. Itâs normally covered by their trademark red gloves.
Piercings: Their ears are stretched to fit about a 19mm plug, they normally will wear just a plain black or gold pair of plugs, as itâs normally hidden behind their hair.
Casual attire: Neccio wears a pair of straight fit velvet pants in a deep burgundy, paired with a red button up silk shirt that they leave fully unbuttoned. Their shirt is always tucked into their pants and held in with a small golden belt. Over this, they wear a dark green overcoat that is a velvety material and goes down to their ankles. As for shoes, they wear a pair of platform heels that add a few inches to their height.
Accessories: Neccio loves wearing a Gainsborough style hat with a single black plume feather, although they will swap the base hat out for different colored ones depending on the day or occasion. They donât wear a lot of jewelry as itâs just not super practical for them, but will occasionally wear rings.
Personality: Neccio is very much a not kind person, theyâre very annoying and adore to get on peopleâs nerves. Theyâre very confrontational and in fact really enjoy getting into arguments, and are just really abrasive in general. They really enjoy being cruel and are easy to anger over little things. The law never really plays any aspect into their decisions on if theyâll do something or not, as they genuinely get a thrill from committing crimes and making life worse for other people, whether through their job or being violent. In general, Neccio, is extremely impulsive and selfish, theyâll make snap decisions solely for whatâs going to benefit them. Theyâre very controlling and manipulative and enjoy using their stand for gaslighting people around them. Outside of doing that, theyâre relatively persuasive and pushy and enjoy making people feel as though theyâre backed into a corner with no other option. Neccio is incredibly materialistic and believes their taste is highly sophisticated. Theyâre relatively greedy and just keep climbing higher in their career only to get more money.
Likes: Neccioâs favorite thing is going out into their backyard at around 9 pm and lighting a cigarette and just soaking up the night atmosphere. They collect a lot of vintage ashtrays, and theyâre normally in carefully chosen places around their house. Neccioâs favorite kind of interior decoration is modern, and furniture thatâs one of a kind. They tend to prefer buying luxury items and love to eat seafood, especially when itâs homemade. They read a lot of romance novels, but solely to read them aloud and torment people around them. Neccio also pole dances a bit in their spare time as a way of exercise. They really enjoy speaking in public but also dealing with the people that they have to collect loans from because they find it funny when people get desperate. Their favorite smell is pine or any evergreen scents, and they prefer savory foods over sweet, excluding mint (which they love).
Dislikes: The biggest thing that irks Neccio is if they arenât seen as intimidating, which always results in them getting a bit violent in a way to rectify that but also because they just truly enjoy being violent. They donât enjoy being super far out into nature, as something about it (maybe having to walk in heels) just isnât their cup of tea. They hate when people are on time, as they tend to show up about a half hour early solely to impose on people, but hates even more when people are late. Commitment and relationships that solely exist to be together forever is something they honestly despise and will dump people for fun if it gets too serious. A big dislike with partners that they have is when people have facial piercings because it tends to get caught on their hair.
They have a lot of decoration pet peeves, and if you decorate with posters, they will just take them down, even if itâs their first time visiting. They would much prefer blank walls or paintings and thinks that posters are trashy. The trend of black and white color schemes irks them as there is absolutely nothing more boring than a home in just black and white. When things are messy at their own home, it really irritates them because they know they wouldnât make a mess on purpose. In terms of smell, the new car smell is one they despise and they hate the scent of lavender. They canât stand pop music and hate puns.
Phobias: Amnesia and clowns
Habits: Neccio tends to pop their gum a lot, solely to irritate people and gestures a lot when they speak. Unfortunately sometimes those gestures include gesturing a bit violently, although itâs funny for them.
Favorite color: Jade green
Favorite musician: Lita Ford
Backstory: Neccio was born to a rich family as their only child and their childhood could be described as fairly average. Their stand awoke when they were pretty young, and being a kid, they were really impulsive with using it. The overuse of that caused them to pretty much not be able to remember most of their childhood, but it doesnât bother them at all. When they were sixteen, they used their stand to fully rob their family of their fortune and moved to Corsica. They wanted to go there because they had heard of the crime rates being high and wanted to continue their crimes.
Neccio ended up joining the FLNC relatively soon after it began and contributed to their money laundering and bombing. They stayed with them from 1982 until 1990, when they moved to Naples for a bit of a change of pace. Pretty much as soon as they moved there, they became a loan shark solely for fun, as they didnât really need the money and did it solely for fun.
Family: Their parents arenât really a part of their life and they have no desire to rekindle any relationship with them.
Pet(s): Neccio has smuggled home a nile monitor, and since they have a pretty big house so just let it roam around. They tell people that itâs a komodo dragon solely to trick them, since theyâre somewhat similar sizes.
Occupation: Loan shark
Languages: French, a bit of Corsican from living there for four years, and is mostly fluent in Italian
Stand name: Angry Machines (based off the album by Dio, specifically of the song âStay Out of My Mindâ)
Stand abilities/other info about it: Angry Machines is activated by Neccio touching someone, and they have the ability to erase the memories of the person they touch for a certain period of time. They can do five minutes of time erased without any consequences to themselves, but when they get past that, it starts to chip into Neccioâs memory. It will initially eat away at their most recent short term memories and will eventually get into their long term memory if they keep it up for long enough.
Stand appearance description: Angry Machines blends in relatively well with their normal outfit as it manifests as their pair of red gloves that have a lace top half and a red silk part covering the palm and bottom half of their fingers.

How do all the other stands feel ab sr? Iâm sure they all somewhat get along, right?
iâve been wanting to give a longer, traditional hc style post about this!! since youâve asked itâs the perfect opportunity to express my thoughts on it. itâs more of a combination of SR with the user and their stand, i hope thatâs okay hjrktme
Bruno Bucciarati;
Sticky Fingers is the first Stand from Bucciaratiâs group that you got to see! So thereâs a special place in your heart for it. By extension, Bruno was the first person to see Scarlet Ribbons. SR was very inquisitive during their initial meeting, since itâs the first time she ever saw a Stand other than herself. She was looking around a lot, and lowkey wondering where are this things bows at??Â
Though Stand powers wildly vary from one another, Bruno was able to give you a general explanation of what to expect from SR. He didnât want to go too overboard with advice because he feels a natural fighting style stemming from your own abilities/instinct is best, especially since your Stand is created from your soul. He basically just told you to go with your gut, which at the time felt a bit frustrating... it turned out to be good advice though!Â
Sticky Fingers and SR have almost opposite abilities in a way? SR can close up gaps whereas Sticky Fingers opens them up. Itâs not uncommon that when you and Bruno are chatting, that your respective Stands are just kinda messing around in the distance. Sticky Fingers likes making zippers in walls, and SR tries to see if she can close them with ribbons... it doesnât work like that, but itâs kinda endearing to see them interact with one another lmao.
Giorno Giovanna;
Itâs gonna be super cute okay. Giorno in general might give the impression of knowing what heâs doing when it comes to romance, but he really is just winging it and kinda going ??? the entire time. Meanwhile, Gold Experience is going ham with SR, pulling all the stops to impress her (and you, by extension). His Stand makes flowers of a striking red color, trying to match the shade of SRâs ribbons!! Mostly poppies, tulips, and occasionally roses.Â
Giorno is kinda curious how SR seems to be out a lot of the time, heâs thinking should I do the same thing with GE...? Youâll be doing exercises, and SR is there bringing a water bottle over to you. Or when youâre cooking, SR is hovering over your shoulder wanting to help out as well. Sheâs just almost always around, even if only in the background to explore her surroundings. It makes Giorno let GE out more often, subconsciously.Â
He does ask you about it once, and you just kinda shrug and say SR likes the freedom to do as she pleases. Since she isnât rambunctious like Pistols, you donât see the harm in letting her roam around. Â
Gold Experience wants to try making ribbons, but the best it can do is creating ribbon eels. Itâs not quite the same, but itâs a solid effort. Giorno just has to stop GE from putting the ribbon eel on his head in the same way SR has a ribbon on hers. Mista was around to witness this historical event, and no, he does not intend on letting Giorno live it down. Giornoâs grateful he stopped it from actually happening though.Â
Guido Mista;
Letâs just say your Stands together can be pretty chaotic. The first time you met Mista, and he realized you were a Stand user like himself, he had a very pressing question. When you showed him SR, he looked at it for a moment, as if in deep thought.Â
âD-does... yours talk too?âÂ
Mista passed Polpoâs test only to be gifted talented, albeit troublesome little gremlins. Before he realized giving Pistols food is a reliable method of calming them down, it was a war zone. One of the mornings where the two of you had to do some standard protection fee collection, he looked like a borderline zombie. Lamenting that the Pistols refused to let him sleep, and asked if youâd please use SR to cover their mouths lmao. They were protesting the entire time, trying to convince you not to do it.
When Number Five starts crying, SR makes a little ribbon to put on his head!! Itâs super cute and Mistaâs heart is just leaping in his chest. Then, of course, all the other Pistols want one bc equal attention!! When the two of you arenât paying solid attention to your Stands, youâll sometimes spot SR testing how many accessories she can fit on the tiny Pistols. It isnât a lot but theyâre insistent on trying.Â
Pistols are always trying to get SR to do crazy stunts for their entertainment. Eventually, you had to lock your refrigerator with her ribbons to prevent the Pistols from stealing your food. But when youâre busy, the Pistols keep trying to convince SR to undo them so they can snack. She actually felt bad for them once, released the restriction, and the Pistols went to town on your leftovers. : (
Mista felt pity for you though and offered to take you out to get more food!! So it all worked out for his benefit in the end. The Pistols do not take issue in reminding him of this as well, saying that theyâre the reason he got to go on a date with you. :â )
Pannacotta Fugo;
He remained fiercely adamant on keeping Purple Haze from you for the longest time. Fugo hates how his Stand practically comes out of its own autonomy whenever youâre in the vicinity, wanting to get a closer look at you. There have been a lot of close calls when you first got to know when another, leading to Fugo abruptly leaving in conversations.Â
Your Stands get along well once Fugo feels comfortable enough to let Purple Haze out around you. Since SR is a long ranged Stand, she can do her cute ribbon tricks from a distance outside of the virusâ range!! Though she has a habit of trying to get closer, just out of curiosity. Fugo gets freaked out when this happens though, so she waits until heâs distracted with talking to you (a little genius)!Â
Purple Haze makes the biggest puppy dog eyes at SR, which humiliates Fugo to no end. He gives his Stand intense talks when youâre not around, telling him to keep it cool, he doesnât want you thinking heâs an idiot. But as soon as he even mentions SR, Purple Haze gets all thrilled and is like !!! So itâs ultimately counterproductive. Fugo just hopes you donât put two and two together, over why his soul likes yours so much. Itâs his daily prayer...
Fugo has an embarrassing habit of doodling ribbons on stuff heâs working on, when he starts zoning out. When he realizes what it is heâs doing he gets flustered about it, cursing underneath his breath and hoping that you donât happen to come by and notice. Unfortunately for him, as SR likes to see what everyone is up to, she came over and saw what he was doing. After putting two and two together, she gave him a nod and a thumbs up on his doodles. Didnât snitch to you though, so the two of them have a mutual understanding. :â)
Narancia Ghirga;
He wants so badly to impress you with Aerosmith. Narancia will whip his Stand out in your presence at any given opportunity, having it do a few flips and tricks more than necessary. Then he stares over to see what you and SR think about it... she once clapped in Aerosmithâs honor. It was all Narancia could think about for the rest of the day.Â
The two Stands typically just play around with one another. Aerosmith likes to make little ribbon shaped clouds, and SR attempts making a plane shape out of her ribbons. Itâs not quite the same, but sheâs trying!! Narancia finds it adorable, and tries to make requests of shapes and stuff for her to make. SR does her best to fulfill the requests, concentrating hard on the task!!
Since SR enjoys making hair accessories, sheâs tried to make a bandanna similar to Naranciaâs for you. Though she ultimately scrapped the idea, giving you a disapproving look and fastening it back into the normal bow it normally is lmao. When you mentioned this behavior to Narancia he was like wait, what?? Lemme see! But if SR doesnât find something fashionable, she doesnât have any intention on doing it again. So heâs outta luck...
It doesnât stop him from asking about it. He just canât believe that your Stand thought about him when he wasnât around!! It touched him in a way he never knew possible. Itâs also a bit of a relief since youâre often the subject of his thoughts.Â
Leone Abbacchio;
Similar in a sense to Fugo, where he didnât want Moody Blues around you that much at first. He takes a much more serious approach to his Stand than others, since itâs deeply rooted in his past trauma. Itâd actually be one of the few moments he might snap at you, should you ask to see his Stand one too many times. Not out of malicious intent, heâs just... very disillusioned with Moody Blues at first.
You two had a job which required some investigative work, the client having seemingly disappeared with some goods that belonged to Passione. Figuring out what happened with the merchandise was essentially childâs play for Moody Blues, a replay showing the full extent of the events. Abbacchio wasnât keen on showing you his Stand, but it couldnât be helped any longer.
Unlike the others who tended to pester him on the extent of Moody Bluesâ abilities, you just complimented him. Saying that itâs similar in utility to your Stand. You willingly comparing yourself to him, and in a positive light nonetheless, kinda had him at a loss for words.Â
He didnât really offer a strong rebuttal like he normally would, so you assumed he didnât think much of your comment. Which, of course, couldnât be further from the truth. If you could see good in him of all people, then well... there was a lot for him to think about that night.
After this incident, heâs noticeably just a tad kinder to you in general. What you said meant a lot to him. Obviously not enough to make all his self deprecation go away overnight, but it just gave a small glimmer of hope. That maybe he can someday be better.
Trish Una;
Another person that I picture SR being especially adorable with!! After the events of Bruno betraying the boss, you and SR would be feeling hurt on Trishâs behalf. You instantly draw the parallels of living a carefree life, only for Passione/gangsters to come in and essentially ruin everything.
While dealing with the pain of rejection from her father figure, Trish also wonders if you consider her less important. Since your original job was to protect her, due to being the bossâ daughter, wouldnât it make sense you donât care about her now that itâs no longer your job to?
SR covers the spot where her hand was severed with a bow, even after Giorno properly heals it. Trish just looks at you confused, and you explain itâs your Standâs way of wanting to help her feel better. That where her father had inflicted pain, Trish has the support and strength from you and herself to overcome it.Â
Needless to say, Trish thinks highly over you, the feeling extending over to Spice Girl. During your meetups after everything is over, Spice Girl and Scarlet Ribbons come out and embrace one another!! Well, itâs more like SR goes for the hug, and Spice Girl is just :â) woah affection. Trish finds it a little embarrassing at first, but secretly loves and it and looks forward to it. Though she does wish Spice Girl was a tad more discreet.Â
During Trishâs travels for her singing career, if thereâs anything that even vaguely reminds her/Spice Girl of you, she snaps a photo to text to you. Itâs mostly red hair accessories and clothing, which she of course purchases. Spice Girl misses SR a lot, so expect to receive a lot of texts asking how you and your Stand are doing.Â
When Scarlet Ribbon spots Trishâs name popping up on your phone, she immediately brings it over. The Stand impatiently shoves your phone in your face, as if to say respond now!! Itâs Trish, itâs important!! Scarlet Ribbons loves her a lot đ„ș especially since Trish sends her accessories...

Hand headcannons (ft. First Years and Grim)
So, I might have lost it.Â
Look, it was supposed to be a fic about rings and eventually leading to a romantic scenario, but nah, HANDS bro.Â
First Years: Ace Trappola, Deuce Spade, Epel Felmier, Jack Howl, Sebek Zigvolt, [Name] and Grim (sorry, Ortho, Iâm basing this of off Grimâs groovy, which, btw, SO CUTE AHHHH ALL OF MY HUSBANDS ARE THERE AAAAAA)
edit: after a day or two, i think the title can be interpreted as something else, hold on
there, boom
âWhat do you think about rings, prefect?â Aceâs question snaps you out of your note-taking concentration.Â
âHuh?â You frown, holding your hand up on your chin as you stare at the boy. âWhatâs this all about?â
âJust a question.â He urges, fallin back on his seat, hands hidden under the table.Â
âI mean, theyâre just accessories. Iâm not too particular about them, if you ask me.â You reply, looking at your other hand, twisting and turning it about. âItâs cute, sure, but I prefer bracelets.â
Jack pops in, sitting behind you. âBesides, rings are more difficult to exercise with.â
âThatâs right! Itâll be a dishonor to have something thatâll get in the way of training for the Young Master!â Sebek shouts, Jack wincing as he shouts. You gesture Sebek to lower his voice, and he does.Â
âDo you have one on, Ace?â Grim asks, shifting on your lap to face him.Â
Ace smirks and slowly lifts one of his hands. A big, chunky ring made of silver rests on his middle finger, with a polished gem stone on it. âCheck it! Doesnât it look cool!â
âWhatâs that?!â Epel gasps, rushing towards the lot of you with Deuce. âThat looks cool as hell- I mean, it looks cool!â
âOoh!â You hum in interest. âWhereâd you get it?â
âMade it during alchemy.â Ace answers, lifting it so the jewelry catches the light of the classroom. âDoesnât it look sick?!â
âDoesnât Heartslabyul have a rule about that?â Deuce warns, looking at the ring.Â
âBah, itâs fine~ so long the dorm leader doesnât know, right~?â Ace hums, hiding his hand once more.
âI wanna make that too, so I can sell it and buy more tuna~!â Grim suggests, turning to you as its blue eyes widen in excitement. âHenchmen, letâs do it!â
âIsnât the gem fake?â You ask, and Ace scowls at your assumption.Â
âHuh, it IS real! I thought it was fake. Dang, good job.â You praise, impressed with the quality. âAh, sure, Grim, we can try that.â The monster purrs happily in response. You plop it on your index finger easily. The ring was far too big on you, easily sliding in and out.Â
âNo, itâs not! Here, feel it for yourself!â Ace gingerly hands you the ring, and you feel the heaviness. âIâm not that dumb, unlike Deuce here.â
âHey, watch it!â
âLet me see.â You hand the ring to Jack, Ace and Deuce too busy squabbling to notice. He glides his fingers across the smooth stone. You notice his hands are a little more coarse than yours.
âAllow me to see it, too.â Sebek says, slipping off the gloves he normally wears. Jack gives it to him, and under your gaze, he rubs the silver holdings of the ring.Â
âWhy are their hands so big?â You wonder, staring at your own. âDo I just have baby handsâŠ?â
Aha! A lightbulb strikes in your head.
âEpel, can you give me your hands?â The purple-haired fellow gives you a weird stare. âI want to see how small mines are.â You explain. He nods, and shyly places his hands on yours, a light blush coloring his cheeks.Â
His palms are soft, most likely from the cream Vil forces him to use on a daily basis (as he often complains about their flowery scent) and surprisingly, also bigger than yours!
âTheyâre small. Smaller than mines.â Epel murmurs in wonder and takes it a step further, clasping your other hand and folding his fingers so they wrap around yours into a hold. Now itâs your turn to blush as Epel grins at the size difference.Â
âWhatcha guys doing~? Flirting so early in the morning?â Ace teases, the ring back on his finger.
âNo-!â You and Epel shout at the same time, meeting each otherâs eyes and as quickly, looking away from each other.Â
 âMy turn.â Ace hums, taking yours into his. âWoah, it really is small, perfect! Hehe, prefectâs got baby hands~â He teases, the smirk on his face never leaving.Â
Aceâs hands are a bit rougher than Epel, and warm, much warmer than Epelâs hands.Â
âI donât have baby hands, leave me alone.â You defend, even if the physical evidence says otherwise.
âI want to feel it.â Deuce replies, also slipping his gloves off to reveal his hands. âHuh, you havenât seen their hands that often.â you realize.Â
You wrap his hands around yours. As usual, itâs bigger than yours, but itâs more coarse Aceâs and covered with scratches, most likely due to the yankee fighting he had in his days.Â
âAre these the scars from back in your day?â You ask in a mumble, tracing the scars on his palm slowly with your other hand. He nods slowly.Â
âDamn, dude. Who were you fighting?â Ace asks, leaning over your shoulder to check Deuceâs scars.Â
âSome big guys. D-donât talk about my past, it feels weird!â He snatches his hand away, a faint blush on his cheeks and quickly puts his gloves back on, to your (surprising) disappointment.Â
âJack, your turn.â Epel urges, Grim in his arms. âI bet he has the biggest hands out of all of us.â
âProbably.â Deuce agrees, nodding along.Â
Jack blushes and looks away. âI-itâs not like I want this to happen or anything. Itâs out of pity, okay? Pity!â
âMhmm.â You all mumble, knowing the wolfâs tendency to get flustered.Â
Your hands donât even reach the start of his fingertips, my goodness! You canât even wrap your fingers around them, but itâs softer than you expect. As soft as Deuceâs, youâd say.
âPerfect does have baby hands.â Epel laughs, smiling. âItâs kinda cute.â
âHey.â You pout. âDamn, Jack, why are your hands so bigâŠ?â
âProbably his size. I mean, heâs jacked. Get it?â Ace teases, and you can all only collectively sigh and shake your head.Â
âAllow me.â Sebek intervenes, and all of you look at him.Â
âAww, missing out, Sebek?â Ace teases, and Sebek opens his mouth, ready to yell at him in max. Volume, but you quickly distract him by clasping your hands on his.Â
It's the coarsest one out of all of them, most likely from all the sword-gripping and the training he does. Itâs smaller than Jackâs, but bigger than Ace or Deuce.Â
âHuh.â You clasp his hands between your fingers, and he blushes bright red, quickly grabbing his hand away.Â
âW-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!â He booms, and thankfully, youâre used to it, so you give him a confused look instead.Â
âMeasuring hand sizesâŠ?â You question, and a small smile blooms on your face. âAre you embarrassed, Sebek~?â
âN-NO! I WAS SIMPLY-â
âEh~â
âEh~~â
âEh~~~â
âHmm?â
âFgna~?â
âS-silence, humans! Iâm going to go now, youâve distracted me from Young Master-â You all grab his jacket to prevent him from leaving, and he sits there, ears red and hands crossed against his chest.Â
âDonât be embarrassed, Sebek~â You smile, patting his shoulder. âSorry, mustâve shocked you.â
âItâs the Great Grim next!â Grim shouts, placing his paw on yours. Obviously, it's smaller than yours, tiny pink pads pressing against your palms as his claws lightly scratch your skin.Â
âYours is the cutest, Grim.â
âNo, itâs not! The Great Grim has the coolest paws of âem all!â It grumbles, hands on its sides.Â
âSure, Grim.â You smile at the protest.Â
âItâs true!!!â
âMhmm~â You all collectively hum.Â
âLISTEN TO ME!!!â
