Relationship: Reader X Hangman Adam Page

------------------------------------------------------------

On October 25, 2023 in Philadelphia, after the team of Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, and Hangman Page, better known as the Hungbucks won their ROH Six Man championship defense, an event occurred that left you in disbelief.  You were ringside for the match and celebrated in the ring afterward with your two closest friends and fiancé. But the video on the big screen soon changed from the Elite's images and showed Swerve Strickland opening the door into you and Adam's home just twenty minutes away from the Liacouras Center, where Dynamite was being held. You watched as he raided and tore things off of your shelves. Living in a small town outside of Philadelphia was a common thing. However, you couldn't figure out exactly how Swerve managed to know exactly which house was yours. Strickland and Prince Nana took their own tour around your home, kicking their dirty shoes up on your couch, ripping important photos apart, and throwing one of your favorite necklaces, a gift from Hangman somewhere in the grassy backyard.

You and Hangman booked it out of the ring even though it was totally pointless. You had to explain to your fiancé that there was no way you'd make it home in time. You still had your own match to wrestle and Hangman refused to let you out of his sight.

Later on, after a long half hour of your mind running at a million miles a minute, you wrestled in a Philly Street Fight. You requested that all of the Elite remain in their locker room as for the match would obviously get out of hand. It was a draining match, however you were thankful you ended up not losing any blood. While you ended up being successful in winning the match, the big screen once again flickered to Swerve Strickland and Prince Nana. You quickly grabbed a microphone and spoke before they had the chance.

"Whatever you want from me, you're gonna have to get over yourself and drop it." You huffed as you tried to catch your breath, still feeling the impact of the match. "Your problem isn't with me, Swerve. It's with Hangman. Don't bring me into your bullsh..."

"No need for the frustration." Swerve laughed. His enlarged face on the bright screen in front of you.

Nana's smile grew as the camera panned to where they were standing. Directly outside of the Elite's locker room. Standing outside of where you told your best friends to wait. Nana put a few brooms within the handles of the doors, preventing it from being able to open. "You better watch out. As Swerve said before, Hangman's loved ones would be the one to face the consequences of his actions. You just happen to be the one he loves most."

Nana walks out of frame with Swerve and the camera cuts. You toss the microphone out of the ring and start to limp your way to the back in an attempt to help your friends. Then you take a large hit to your back. What feels like hundreds of kicks are dropped upon your already damaged body. For a second they stop and you are able to make out the faces of Brian Cage, Toa Liona and Bishop Kaun.

It was a planned attack.

Even though you couldn't see it, the camera footage came back up on the big screen. You could hear the Hungbucks banging on the door, trying to find a way, anyway out that they could.

Swerve's music hit. As you tried to climb back to your feet, the pain across your body continued to make gravity feel like it was so much stronger. Collapsing at the knees repeatedly. Swerve and Nana finally made it to the ring, staring you down like a cat stalking it's prey. Strickland reaches under the ring and pulls out a black bag. The black bag known infamously to every single wrestler and every single wrestling fan on the planet. As Strickland climbed in the ring he backed his men off. He looked back at the big screen to still see no sign of Hangman or anyone else getting out of the room. Just a bunch of helpless banging on the door.

Swerve brought a microphone up to his mouth, the black bag still in his hand. He used his foot to knock you over again, then pressing your head into the ring mat with the bottom of his shoe. "It's a shame I need to do this to you. Your fiancé wanted to make this personal. Now where is he? He's in the back in a panic. Locked in a room. Watching me push your head into the floor with the bottom of a shoe that I used to walk around the dirty city of Philadelphia." The crowd booed as Swerve insulted their, and your hometown. He then kicked you directly in the head but you somehow managed to get your arms up enough to block most of the shot. "You know, maybe the two of you will have a real nice talk after this. He can't protect you. He can't save you. He doesn't really love you, does he? If he loved you he would be out here by now, wouldn't he?"

You immediately popped up to your feet to defend the cowboy but when you swung at Swerve, Toa Liona knocked you down. Swerve threw the microphone at you before opening the bag and dumping hundreds of thumb tacks onto your back. The coldness of the small pieces of metal gave you goosebumps. You had no energy to move. Being held in place didn't help as Swerve climbed to the top of the ropes. He jumped off and drove his two feet into the tacks that were resting on your back. You screamed and writhed in pain but you were picked up again. This time Swerve had you up straight, pile driving you into the already bloodied collection of tacks. You tried rolling away but the pain in your neck was unbearable. Every time you tried to move, the tacks drove themselves further into your skin.

Swerve grabbed you by your hair, pulling you into a slouched sitting position facing you both towards the hard camera. The final tack falling from your temple, your blood was trickling hastily down your face, leaving a metal taste in your mouth and a burning sensation in your eyes. Prince Nana gave Swerve another microphone. "This is what happens. This is what happens, Hangman!" Swerve yells, still holding your head up. "I warned you, cowboy. And now you can't do anything about what's already been done." He drops you and you limply fall to your side. Your face was turning the mat a dark red as you laid there gasping for air. "Whose house?" Swerve cheekily mumbles, making the crowd scream 'Swerve's house' in reply.

Just as Swerve stood back up straight, he saw the door break open. Hangman broke through all of the broom sticks and was fully sprinting towards the ring. You wiped the blood out of your eyes and managed to roll around a bit, being able to lean on your elbow. The second the Hungbucks made it through the curtain, Swerve and his group bailed from the ring. Hangman ran right passed you to try and get to Swerve, however, he was already gone.

First, Nick tried to help you up, but you pushed him away asking for space. Instead, you pulled yourself to the ropes. You turned to look at Adam but he refused to break eye contact with Strickland. You got yourself up to your knees and then Matt tried to assist you. Again, you pushed him away.

You managed to get up to your feet but you were using the ropes to carry all of your weight. Finally, Matt went over to Hangman and pushed him away from Swerve. "Forget him. She needs you right now."

Hangman turned to look at you. The panic finally overpowered his anger as he rushed to you, wrapping an arm around your back. "Shirt." You manage to say.

"What about it?" Adam asks.

You cough a bit before turning to the side to spit out blood from your mouth. "I don't want to ruin your shirt." You say as you try and keep him from being worried. He told you that he didn't care about the shirt but you forced a smile and replied, "No, but I like that shirt."

Hangman rolled his eyes, knowing you were trying to make sure he wasn't too worried despite the fact you were standing in front of him covered in blood. He pulled his shirt off, revealing his large shoulders and chest and allowed you to rest his weight onto him. He held you up, whispering repeated apologies in your ear.

A Minute later Angor Rot has joined the cuddle pile

Angor Rot (grumbling): I can’t believe you talked me into this.

(Y/N): I barely said anything. :3c

Strickler as a single father to a daughter the same age as Toby, Jim, and Claire and is also a part of the Trollhunters?

This man is beyond stressed.

~ First of he adores you, you are his entire world. He worked hard to be where he is in the Order and now that he's where he's at you are safer than you would've been before. He knows he hasn't always made the best decisions for your relationship but he does his best as a father and is always thinking of your future and saftey.

~ Thankfully young changelings who are naturally borne and not switched from the DarkLands are often coddled or given special treatment. Changelings instinctively are very protective of their young whether its their kin or someone elses. They will do whatever it takes to protect the young of their clan. Otto and Nomura love you as if you were their own and when you were growing up they were your closest family other than Strickler.

~ Otto was a doting uncle and Nomura a caring but estranged wine aunt. You are older now but many changelings still coo at you like a child depsite being a teenager. Strickler tells you to use that to your advantage since it won't last forever but in his eyes no matter how old you grow you'll always be his baby. Despite his uneasiness around Nomura and Otto he knows they feel the same.

~ No one ever told Stricklander they were proud of him growing up. No one ever thanks him for his hard work or gives him his credit where it's due unless he fights for it. He bit and clawed and chewed and fought to be where he is now. That being said he always tells you how proud he is of you. He always lets you know your accomplishments mean something and he always lets you know your loved. He's not always good with physcial affection but he will always tell you he loves you and is proud of you.

~ Fighting and sparring is a bonding activity. He needs to know if anything ever happens to him you'll be able to take care of yourself. He tells you to depend on Otto and Nomura but never be surprised if they turn their back on you, that is the way of changelings once they grow. Strickler is prepared for any situation and he had raised you with that same skill set making you remember the honor code of changelings. Adaption is your middle name and decepticon is a game you've always played, Strickler couldn't be more proud of your talents and skill.

~ You both communicate in Morse code when your upset or in dangerous situations. He clicks his pen and you tap your fingers. If your stressed and can't speak or feel your words catching in your throat morse is the best way to communicate your feelings. Strickler taught it to you when you were very young and now it's ingrained deeply in your mind. Thanks to your dad you know many languages and codes and you never feel out of the loop.

~ At first Strickler wants to homeschool you worried your changeling nature will be revealed but you've grown so much and have mastered your powers. Plus it would be suspicious for a teacher to keep a child at home. It's at school you meet your dads favorite student Jim.

~ Before Jim becomes the trollhunter you and him actually grow really close. Toby and him being your only real friends. Strickler trusts them and you'll often ride your bikes home together and get tacos when your dads busy. You have to dedicate a lot of time to school and the Order but at least you have Jim and Toby when your in school.

~ Acting is in your blood so the theater club seems like a natural form of escape. Thats where you meet Claire. Jims told you endless stories about his crush and now you act as an agent. You help Jim and Claire get closer and suggest he tries out for the play so he can get his dream girl.

~ Your grades are beyond excellent and your role in the Order is forming nicely as you cement a place next to your father. Strickler has high expectations of you but he never pushes you too hard to break you. As your father he's supportive of your decisions only wanting what's best, but he reminds you the Eternal Night will be coming soon. And one must always be careful with their emotions.

~ Nesting is instinctive as a changeling. Doesn't matter how old you are, your getting long cuddles from your dad as he grooms your hair and babies you. Pillowforts and blanket nests are a must after a long week. You'll be huddled together and watching movies on his day off preening each other and snuggling into each other.

~ When you relaized how bad the Eternal Night was you flee from Strickler to join the Trollhunters and stop the Order. A strong divide is created in your relationship as you seperate yourself from your father and he does everything to try and make you come back. Its thanks to you Jim knows changelings are real and in Arcadia. You've endangered everyone in the Order and yourself. Depsite your original treachery Strickler still loves you and tries to talk to you whenever he can at school.

~ You'd moved out so suddenly having preplanned this and now you worked with the trollhunters full time. Your father wasn't sure if he was proud or safe Your kept safe in Trollmarket where you live with Blinky and Aarrgh in Blinkies library. Having you living with two other trolls especially trolls you saw as fathers infuriated Strickler to no end. He tries to get in contact with you to make you come home but Jim and Toby always had your back making sure he couldn't take you back. The friends he thought would keep you safe were now keeping him away from you.

~ Once Claire joins the group he's not sure of his next step. You leaving was unplanned, the amulet picking a human unprecedented, and Bulars temper tantrum about treason were unpredictable. He was left in a giant mess you helped create and there wasn't a lot of options out. However seeing the four of you together as team did warm his heart. His baby was growing up.

~ Chaos ensues in the Order after your departure. Strickler is doing his best on the inside to keep you safe but with changelings wanting revenge it isn't easy. When Bular is killed and the power shifts however Strickler sees an opening. As Strickler and Otto rise to the top of the Order your father wonders if summoning a certain Trollhunter assassin talented in kidnapping could get rid of both of his problems...

Are you able to do some fluff with strickler who just wants to cuddle but the reader is trying to do house chores. Key word is "trying" can't when you got a strickler who wants some cuddles

You had been trying to tidy the house now that you have a day off but Strickler had other ideas. He followed you like a lost puppy emerald eyes sad as payed more attention to your work than him. You swept, you vaccumed, you mopped, you took out the trash, did the dishes and now you were polishing your shared desk.

Finally done Strickler grabbed the hand that wasn't wiping down the desk top. You hum curiously at the sudden grab before letting out a yelp as he pulls you back. A flash of light and green wings are wrapping around you as Strickler nuzzles the back of your neck letting out a deep rumbly purr. Huffing as you turn in his grip he smiles at you mischeviously.

"I love you my emerald but I have work to do." He grunts in response and pulls you close hiding in your neck as he continues his purring and preening. "Strickler honey our home needs to be cleaned." You whine but his wings simply wrap around you like a heavy blanket, keeping you warm and close as he cuddles you. His horns touch the underside of your chin as he continues to nuzzle you making small chirping noises as he takes in the smell of your clothes.

"I'll do it later..." He promises when you continue to squirm but your not sure if you trust his word as he snuggles into the blankets and pillows under him pulling you closer still.

"Honey..." He pulls away and smiles before silencing you with a kiss. Blushing and stuttering he smirks pleased with his distraction before he closes his eyes feeling you near him.

Sighing getting comfortable you snatch a blanket frol underneath him and smile as his chest becomes your personal pillow. "Good night my love." You murmer and he purrs.

"Good night..." He responds before you both drift off into a nice nap.

For an ask can you do Walter strickler having to reveal his troll form to his s/o because they accidentally saw another changling with him, thank you. ^_^

Strickler had left you in the car because he needed to discuss something with a business partner. When you learned that business partner was Nomura and that they were meeting after hours at the museum you were suspicious. Why would Walt need to meet his adopted sister this late at night and at the museum of all places for crying out loud?

Sighing trying to come up with reasons on why this was taking forever, you check your phone and see it's been half an hour. Tapping your fingernails against the cardoor you purse your lips. Stricklander and Nomura better have one hell of a reason for blowing you off like this. Nomura knew not to call in personal favors on date night and Strickler knew better than to do work when you two were alone together.

'This is what you call a "short" meeting?' You text hoping to tease him or make him see he'd been away forever. You knew him and Nomura took awhile sometimes but this was date night and this was getting ridiculous. You'd give him five minutes. Five minutes and then you were storming the castle.

He doesn't respond as another five minutes slip by and you huff. His message showed he'd read your text but hadn't responded.

You might get arrested tonight. That dick.

Strickler was one with many secrets and you wanted to repsect his privacy but this was just... taking a deep breath you hum. Calling him as you tap your foot in the car feeling angry the dial tone goes on forever before the voice mail turns on. Hanging up you sign, hands dragging down your face as you take another deep breath.

"... I'm gonna kill him."

Getting out of the car you stalk towards the museum opening the door and letting yourself in. They'd left it open so you walked in. If Nomura griped at you, you'd tell her to shut up.

~~~

The Museum was quiet... walking through the empty halls your shoes click against the tile and the sound echoes all around you. Texting Strickler again he doesn't respond, doesn't even look at your text so you continue to wander, hoping to find him in this vast place.

Hearing voices you go towards them and seeing a giant curtain in front of you, you bat it away and cough loudly into your hand hoping to gain their attention.

"If your not going to respond I hope you know your sleeping on the couch tonight-" You stop mid sentence as you see a tall pink woman and a tall green man with horns. Dropping the curtain slowly green and golden eyes stare into your soul.

In a moment their back. You blink there's a light and Nomura and Strickler stand there. Nomura looks amused but Strickler... Strickler is all but panicked.

"(Y/N) I-" His eyes were glowing. Nomuras had been glowing. You'd seen them. You'd seen them as something other than themsleves. What was happening? What had you seen? Had you seen anything?

Blinking slowly looking down at the tile your head spins as you feel a headache coming. Maybe you drank too much. Maybe you needed sleep. Maybe they ticked you off so much your mind hallucinated them as demons.

"You brought them here? Why?" Nomura hisses and Strickler looks something between flustered and angry as he looks between you and Nomura. You take a deep breath as they begin bickering.

"(Y/N) whatever you just saw-" Strickler states firmly. You don't let him finish and turn around.

"I didn't see anything. I'll wait in the car." You state before stalking off.

"(Y/N)-" Strickler tries again but your already down the hall.

"I'LL BE IN THE CAR." You respond sharply before walking off to the car. StrickLander Walthomew sure had a lot to explain and he better explain it quickly because if Nomura didn't kill him for whatever that was, you would.

The Order Dating Aesthetics 🗡

StrickLander: The smell of old books and tea, black coffee no creame, blue black and red pens, glittering emeralds, pristine tea sets, piano keys playing in the distance, music sheets spread out on a table, ink stains on paperwork, a silver tongue, forehead and hand kisses, the sound of throwing a dagger, draping a jacket over you, old maps to a location unknown, books lost to time, bouquet in hand compliments in mouth, secrets whispered from the shadows, long walks underneath the starlight, V.I.P events, blood dripping off knifes, drinking wine at midnight, a tie like a noose, Greek mythology.

Nomura: The scent of old things, whistling at midnight, oil paint under the fingernails, colorful tapestries with dark histories, clay dust on shoes, warm tea at strange hours, music echoing off high ceilings, light spilling through stained glass, an attention to detail, stories to distract from sleep, opera, renaissance pottery, the stickiness of blood, secretive hand holding, a knife sticking into a wall, a love for the theater, stories hidden from history, silk kiminos, a tragic romance, gossip cuddled in blankets, secrets in hidden spaces, a quiet track of Little Gynt.

Otto: The smell of chocolate, honey brown eyes, praises whispered in german, face kisses, delicious pastries, falling asleep at the desk, shuffling papers late at night, irritated growls, hands ruffling through your hair, claws against wood, the distant playing of a gramaphone, secrets murmered as your held close, cute nicknames, long bubble baths with wine, glares sent at others, mistrust, missing people, buried secrets, hidden weapons, pretty flowers, fine dining, sharing stories, sweets.

Can I get a strickler and his werewolf s/o cuddling and just having a good day in general?

As a werewolf it was your natrual instinct to build a den and settle with your mate. Thankfully Strickler as a changeling had that same urge but with nesting. Nuzzling him as you add more pillows and blankets to keep you extra warm and soft he chuckles at the semi fort, semi nest your building.

As you lay on top of him finally done with the fluffy creation he smiles claws carefully running through your hair. Purring deeply low rumbles escaping your throat he chuckles scratching your head just where you like it scratched. As you kick your leg happy at the feeling the forgotten movie plays in the background. Strickler with a mischevious look pulls you close humming as he wraps his arms around you. Feeling your heart beat against his as you lay on his chest he closes his eyes in bliss.

"I love you." He murmers. It'd been a long day but with you here it was worth it. Snuggling close you hum.

"I love you more." Giggling as he kisses you Strickler and you smile cuddling close as the movie plays on.

[troublesometrollhunters]

OHOHOH! How would Strickler and Otto (separated or only one whatever is best for u) react to Reader bringing a puppy home and saying it's bc it reminds them of Them? Sorry just got a pupper and I'm in love

Don't be sorry I love dogs !!!

Strickler

You find a peppered English cocker spaniel on your morning walk. The poor thing looks ragged and you can tell its more or less tame so you scoop them up in your arms before taking them back to the house. This poor dog needed to be rescued stat.

It doesn't have a collar and after a quick trip to the vet it isn't chipped either. Guess the dogs yours now.

Strickler is very OCD if you want any chance of keeping this dog you need to make them presentable. They don't like it but you wrestle them into a bath and wash them off. Once their clean you dry them off and brush out their matted furr. You trim their coat as best you can and carefully clip their nails. They aren't very happy with you but a fluffy towel patting and some dog treats later and now they absolutely love you.

"But Strickler it looks like you." Making pleading dog eyes as you hold up the dog Strickler signs taking a deep breath. About to say absolutely not he pauses. The dog did have green colored eyes and peppered fur similar to his hair color. It was also English. He groans giving in.

Reluctantly he agress that the dog can stay. A week later he's a total dog dad and in love with the pupper. Argos is doing amazing in his new home and is absolutely spoiled to death.

Otto

You found the poor dog on the side of the road and decided that was unaccapetable. They looked okay for being abandoned but they were skinny and needed food, water and a bath.

Taking pity on the brown German pimscher you lead them home with some treats you had in your pocket before getting them settled in the garage. Running inside you get any supplies you have in the house and head outside to help the poor pooch.

Knowing Otto wouldn't say yes unless the dog looked better you begin cleaning the poor guy up. Your able to brush their furr as they eat some food you'd gotten. When you finsih they curl up in your lap refusing to move. Giving them a kiss you pick them up taking them inside.

You named the dog Chocolate after his lush brown coat and because you and Otto love chocolate so much. Plus you just find it cute. Whenever you call that name he wags his tail so you think he likes it too.

When Otto comes home hes surprised to find the dog but he isn't mad. Holding the puppy close you make a pleading face. The dog whines and Otto is such a sap because seeing you and the dog he gives in. Chocolate now lives a very pampered life and you and Otto love him to death.

Being Adopted by the Order

~ Growing up in the Order was interesting. You were a new Polymorph Changeling discovered later in life after an accident happened with the paperwork and placement. You slipped through the cracks and sadly you had no idea what you were until recently.

~ Joining the Order as a teen, Strickler was your designated mentor since you lived in Arcadia and went to his highschool. He was to catch you up on everything you'd missed and help with any of your issues. Nomura and Otto part of Stricklers teams were higher ups you were to report too if Stricklander was busy. You weren't supposed too work yet and they were just there to answer your questions and prepare you for life later on.

~ Changelings by nature are protective of their young and you being younger than them it took a lot of self control not to baby you. That self control was gone by your first week in the Order. It seemed you'd been adopted by the group.

~ Father or Dad Strickler, Papa/Uncle Otto, and Wine Aunt Nomura. It was strange at first but it quickly became normal and you enjoyed being spoiled by the three.

~ When you began "working" at the Order your jobs were kept small and controlled. The Changelings want to keep your information filtered and protected. It's mostly just mild paperwork and learning how all the machines work.

~ They were quiet about the darker parts of the Order doing their best to slowly ease you into it. You may be older but you aren't old enough to know the full truth yet or anything about Gunmars coming. As much as Otto wants to tell you hoping you'll become a Gunmar enthusiast like him Nomura and Strickler persuade him to keep it a secret a little longer.

~ Strickler is in charge of your indoctrination into the Order and adjusting you to living a double life. He also handles a lot of your emotional needs and is a therapist as well as a mentor. Nomura is responsible for your more physical needs. She handles training and controlling your troll side. As a changeling you must know how to fight, people out there will try and hurt you, she wants you prepared for when they can't help you. Otto handles a lot of the paperwork and contacts for the Order but he helps you with your polymorph abilities as they're rare and he's one of the most successful ploymorphs. He teaches you to shift and how much you can shift before it hurts you.

~ The museum, the school, and the Orders office become like second homes. Your parents are informed you have an internship for school, a small job at a travel agency, and volunteer work at the museum. Slowly your distanced from your human family but you dont even notice as you feel so comfortable with your changeling one.

~ Otto is the most affectionate with you. He gives you hugs whenever he sees you and praises you. He brags about you whenever he can and keeps a picture of you in his wallet. Him and Strickler are constantly fighting over the best dad slot in your life. Strickler is the second most affectionate, giving you small displays of affection to show he cares. A shoulder squeeze, saying he's proud. Small but meaningful actions. Meanwhile Nomura really only touches you when your fighting. She cares deeply about you but being a changeling she's dealt with a lot of loss. Her affection is through advice and actions. She doenst often speak her emotions but when she does it's very genuine and you are assured she loves you.

~ Strickler spends a lot of time with you in his office. He rearranged your schedule so you have a free peroid and he uses this time to tell you about your heritage. He takes artifacts off his shelves and tells you ancient stories about changelings and trolls. You learn changeling and trollish from him and he enjoys telling you about your history.

~ He's traveled the world and seen a little of everything. There's always a little more to learn but he chooses to teach what he knows instead. Strickler informs you about everything involving history and cultures and tribes. He tells you stories of his adventures and he hopes someday he'll be able to take you on one. Missions aren't always fun but he must admit traveling was always a plus.

~ Otto isn't allowed to talk about Gunmar but there are other things to discuss. You mostly bond over being polymorphs and get closer as you work together. He helps with paperwork and shows you the less dangerous side of the Order. He hopes one day you can join him and be a spy but for now your doing fine at work and he couldn't be more proud.

~ Ottos constantly buying you sweets and cakes. Feeding you and making sure you know your cared for. In Germany everyone offers food to their loved ones and your not aloud to say no, so for Otto you not eating the food he brings is the greatest offense. You learn very quickly not to fight him and just let him love you.

~ You spend long hours at the museum with Nomura or by yourself. Your either learning about your Changeling side or Changeling culture or wandering around looking at the exhibits. Nomura explains many artifacts show that changelings have existed forever simply hiding in plain sight. She enjoys giving you the tour and telling you all about the secret side of history. Often her and Strickler will bicker about it but she swears she knows better than him.

~ She's very strict about her job but every now and then she'll let you touch something that your not supposed too. She's also let you design exhibits to showcase work and has shared her love of pottery with you. She has a little studio so if you ever feel stressed or upset it's there for you. Sometimes when your angry Nomura will sit and pound clay with you helping you get your emotions out. She warns you while sculpting you are safe but there are others who would take your moments of weakness and use them against you. She doesn't elaborate but the Order is starting to show it's true colors the longer your there.

~ They each have something they like doing with you. Nomura does pottery or art projects, occasionally taking you to new art galleries or shows. Strickler enjoys reading with you or going on short trips. He shows you secret places or overlooked stores that have hidden treasures. And Otto loves taking you to restaurants or the movies. They all spoil you with affection and enjoy doing activities with you.

~ Bular becomes a problem a couple months into your shift to changeling life. With you spending time in the museum and Killahead being formed it is not a surprise when you finally meet him. He's going to eat you but you get so scared you change into your troll form and attack him. Bular has never seen you before and is so surprised you get a couple hits in like Nomura taught you.

~ Strickler and Nomura thankfully come to your defense before too much damage can be done. However, with Bular now knowing of your existence things get more compliacted. More of the Order is revealed to you and continuing to hide what they've lied about is hard.

~ The group does whatever it takes to keep you away from Bular but it seems the troll has gained a crush. Otto sees this as amazing. Imagine their baby courting and marrying the Prince of Darkness. A changeling as consort of the GumGums. You'd be a ruler. Strickler considers it but Nomura does not like the idea.

~ As Bular begins to try and court you, you begin to discover more about the Order. The Changelings begin giving you space and more freedoms allowing you too see what the Order truly is. It's up to you to decide on what to do next. But the changelings do assure you they love you and whatever you decide they'll support.

[troublesometrollhunters]

Can we have Valentine Day head canons on how Otto, Strickler, and Nomura would surprise their human crush? thank u <3

(The Changelings have very different definitions of a date and romantic lmao)

Valentines Day :D

Strickler

Stricklander is never one to halfass things and he likes to take pride in the fact he is a romantic. He has a night planned for Valentine's Day and knows you'll enjoy it. After all he planned it for you.

He tells you he has a surprise and to dress nice. An hour before your reservation he arrives at your house in his best suit and tie with a bouquet of flowers. Having a drink at your house together he won't tell you what he has planned and says to trust him. He likes keeping you on your toes.

You always seem so excited to find out what he's planning. Especially since he's so good at hiding what he's feeling so he keeps it a secret as you drink together.

This date is important to him. Strickler has been planning this for months on the side of his very busy changeling work and disguise job. He's taking you to the most romantic and fanciest resturant in town for this special occasion and he has pulled strings to make this the most romantic date ever.

When you arrive to the restaurant your lead away from all the other table's and too a private part of the restaurant. You have an entire room to yourself, and better yet it's glass so you can see the stars while enjoying your meal together. You order and he smiles as you chat waiting for the food.

As Strickler holds your hand under the table he smiles squeezing it. He leans in for a kiss and you kiss back face flushed from the wine and romance.

Nomura

She has a secret romantic side but only for you. She wouldn't call herself a romantic because she's not one but being surrounded by Renaissance art and constantly hearing proclamations of love in the museum can leave one wanting for love.

Your the first one she's liked since Draal... she wants this date to be special. She may not be sentimental but she's not ready to let you go yet.

Nomura decides her job has some perks when she's able to sneak you into the museum after hours. She has a set up waiting and hopes this'll be special enough for you.

A blankets set out with a bottle of wine. As you two sit your surrounded by beautiful art as you stare out of the muesums ceiling out at the stars.

For hours you drink and laugh and talk and Nomura hasn't felt like this in a long time, if ever. She hopes the night never ends and the day never comes as she leans on you listening to you talk.

Otto

He's been busy but he always makes time for you. And today is your special time together, nothing will get in the way of this. Not even Gunmar. (Please no one tell Gunmar)

For his work he's always out and about. Going to meetings, dinners, lunches, companies, premieres, parties. He's almost always travelling or away so for Valentine's he just wants to spend it in the house with you.

He originally tries to make you a romantic dinner while you were getting ready at your place but he burned it and decided ordering out would be better.

He lights candles to get rid of the smell but also to get in the spirit of Valentine's. He bought you flowers and chocolates and a card and thought you could watch old movies together and cuddle. It's nothing really special but to him being with you and having time off is the most special thing he could ask for.

When you get there he enjoys eating with you and smiles as you laugh and chat the whole movie. When you fall asleep cuddled up to him he hums falling asleep with you. This was perfect.

Ask: hellooo, i couldn’t find an ask option so i did this through submit a post! anyways, hemhem. yandere!strickler x human/changeling woman? thank uuu

You worked under cover together and had been close for a long time. Hundreds maybe thousands of years infact and in all this time Strickler couldn't word how he felt for you. Thousands of years of hugs and forehead or gentleman hand kisses. Holding you close when you were upset. Cerebrating your freedom from the darklands. Sparring together. Enjoying life in the mortal world and running the changeling order together. He knew he needed to tell you but he didn't know how.

He watched you in either of your forms and everyday he fell a lil more in love with you. Your fierceness to defend changelings, your dedication to the Order and him, and your undying loyalty to your friends like him. But the problem with being only friends until he did confess was that others could easily swoop in and take you away. Like Otto.

Otto that pig faced greedy changeling that had been trying to take his position for years now.

He glared as you two ate in your office alone together. You were laughing at a joke he was telling and he wanted to put a stop to it. He always brought you lunch but here you were with Otto who'd cooked you a meal and was currently flirting with you. He couldn't take it so he knew he had to do something about it.

Taking Otto's familiar via portal he put him in an adoption program under a new name and Otto could no longer transform and was stuck in his changeling form. He became useless to the Order and was eventually kicked out. Strickler watched with satisfaction as Otto left the Order alone and confused on what to do next. Not that it mattered what really satisfied him is that you were all his again.

You seemed saddened by the loss but such accidents were a normal occurrence. He had many enemies and you figured one got to him. Signing as you stare out at Arcadia through your skyscraper suite Strickler relaxing in your living room as he'd brought dinner you smile. Strickler was such a good friend. Coming over to eat when he kissed you, you couldn't say no to his offer and he smiled golden eyes shining. He finally had you right where he wanted you.
