#trying to just doodle some headcanons I had throughout the game

[faragonart]

"...They declaired you a heretic, too, haven't they?"

headcanon below (HW spoilers)

In the game where the WoL finds Ysayle in the heretic hideout, my headcanon had Ridel chased down by suspect Ishgardian soldiers while on his mission to seek out her hideaway. They were no sooner laid low by his "Moonshadow"- something he had yet to understand or control... and Ysayle had come upon the aftermath...

(It also was the reason why he, Alphinaud and Tataru were tried for herecy upon his return...)

pls write Simon henriksson headcanons I’m gnawing at the walls of my enclosure 👩‍🦲

WARNINGS; SUBSTANCE ABUSE (SMOKING/DRUGS) MENTIONS OF MENTAL ILLNESS (DEPRESSION/ANXIETY) MENTIONS OF INTERNALIZED MISOGYNY, UNHEALTHY COPING MECHANISMS (SELF-HARM)

AUTHOR'S NOTE; FIRST CRY OF FEAR REQUEST LET'S FUCKING GOOOO !1!1!1!1!1!!1!! kind of short, still new to the fandom so my headcanons of the characters might change overtime.

-it was confirmed that Simon is a fan of heavy metal and DSBM :3 personally I am not an avid listener of this genre, I think it's pretty cool. I'd like to headcanon specific bands that I think are suiting for Simon but I barely know anything so I don't really have a say on this.

-probably has some sort of internalized misogyny. he grew up all alone, his mother being quite overprotective didn't help with that at all and seeing no mentions of his father in the game makes me think his parents were divorced quite early in Simon's life. being exposed to such settings at a young age might have messed with his perception of love and healthy romantic relationships. despite that, he doesn't care much about gender norms now that he's older. left that mindset long ago.

-picked up on his coping mechanisms in his early teens. he was a bit scared at first of trying something like self-harm, it took him him a lot of time and internal conflict but then decided to just fuck it, he had nothing to lose. felt guilty at first, dropped it for a bit and then picked up on it again. he knows it isn't a healthy way to deal and cope with his negative thoughts but he couldn't care less at that point.

-isn't unfamiliar with drugs but not that crazy about it. not as much as cigarettes, although he does it occasionally, he could still smoke like a pack in one sitting if the situation really called for it. usually just sticks to 2-3 cigs, thinks it's a good enough amount.

^ can you tell I have no idea what I'm talking about.

-you'll never get that crusty ass grey hoodie of his off of him. it's like a cartoon where the character's never change outfit throughout the entire show. besides the fact that it's a literal video game, even in his daily life he almost never switches things up. not necessarily dirty, just worn out and stained with stuff that doesn't want to come off no matter how many times he washes it.

-has a mini fridge full of energy drinks in his room. and by full I mean like two cans because the rest have been consumed and thrown somewhere onto the ground.

-cannot save money for the life of him. as soon as he gets his hands on some cash, it's immediately spent on either a pack of cigarettes or some useless shit. he doesn't even remember what he spends it on, it's just gone.

-hadn't picked up his camera in quite a while, he's slowly loosing grip on his interests. not necessarily because he is starting to dislike them, just doesn't have the motivation.

-but it's usually full of recordings of him on the train, lonely streets of Stockholm or some stray cat that has grown a liking to Simon for some odd reason.

-one time Sophie took his camera without telling him and recorded a small video of herself, just doing something simple like a peace sign or showing off a little doodle she drew in her notebook. despite trying his best to move on, he watches that video from time to time.

Skin Writing/Drawing Soulmate AU Headcanons

Vash

He was absolutely scared out of his mind when he first saw the ink appear on his skin. He even went as far as to try to scrub his skin raw, and the ink was still fresh as ever. Poor blondie is wondering how the hell something like this is happening.

Meanwhile, you’re doodling like there’s no tomorrow with your ballpoint pen, tracing the outlines of your veins and doodling smiling faces.

Over time, Vash learns to just accept the random appearance and disappearance of drawings across his body. At the end of the day, it’s like a fun little game to see what’s been sketched on him underneath his turtle neck.

It takes a while for Vash to realize that it’s his soulmate doodles appearing on his skin. Warmth floods his heart each time he thinks of this, causing him to lovely trace the marks across his own skin.

He would laugh sometimes at the sudden ink smear appearing on his skin before new sketch marks appeared, your work hypnotizing him. He especially loved when you used different colors, almost painting his skin like a canvas. Eventually, he makes the move to respond.

So imagine your surprise when you find a poorly drawn flower appear on your skin. Ensue the same panic Vash experienced when you remembered you didn’t draw that.

Wolfwood

Scrubbing his skin did nothing. Seeing the scripture on his forearm made him wonder if he had perhaps gotten too drunk the night before and had gotten a tattoo.

The fancy calligraphy was choice, especially with that proverb. For the lips of the adulterous woman drop honey, and her speech is smoother than oil. Wolfwood decided that there could be worse things etched into his skin from that old religion.

You, on the other hand, were giggling to yourself. Oh, the irony of something appearing to beautiful but naughty. A snort escapes from one of your nearby friends.

He didn’t put anymore thought into it until the next day when the ink disappeared. Lowkey, thought he was super dehydrated for him to imagine that, but nope, even after drinking tons of water, the ink was no longer on his skin.

Cue some praying. He nearly has a heart attack when more ink appears on his skin. He has to go back to the orphanage and ask the elders for help on understanding the situation. Turns out it’s a soulmate thing, one which they didn’t even bother to mention until now.

Overtime, he appreciates the calligraphy he appears on his skin, particularly when new motifs appear. Wolfwood liked seeing you test new things and watch as the ink appear on his skin.

However, he was very glad to wear long sleeves when you would write down a particularly dirty proverb like 5:19. He would always end up blushing a bright red like a tomato, a huge contrast to his normal, stoic personality.

Imagine, your surprise when you notice fresh ink on your skin. For your ways are in the full view of the LORD in basic script.

Knives

He almost didn’t see the script appear on his arms, the ink nearly blending into his suit and pale skin. His fingers traced the letters he could make out. Knives immediately knew what this meant, it was his soulmate reaching out- most likely not knowing what was happening.

He tried to ignore it the best he could and kept himself covered with his cloak. Having someone would just drag him down, make it harder to reach his goal of eradicating humanity. However, his curiosity got the best of him.

Taking another look, the bleach blond quickly recognized the letters as chords with their denoted accidentals. Luckily for him, he new how to play. It was child’s play, really.

Meanwhile, your trying to understand how to play different songs only by listening too them. You were too stubborn to look them up, very confident in your ability.

And so it became a pattern for him to decipher your song you had written on his arm. He would spend hours playing the piano, watching the notes on his arm be crossed out and replaced. The composition rarely stayed imprinted on his skin for longer than a day.

Often, Knives would see lyrics being written with the chords. A little artist are we now? His small joke to himself caused a small smile. He would end up humming them, his low voice cutting through the air. It was for the sake of rhythm, he told himself.

Imagine your surprise when you saw a new. mark you knew you hadn’t inscribed into your skin, a word marked out for another.

[o-hora-o]

hello your art is amazing !! i wondered, do you have hcs / doodles / thoughts about the aftermath of the 1955 disaster ? be it eins and tesla's reaction, how they had to support each others to rise again, how eins had to survive joyce's loss etc... also i'm curious because we always talk about einjoyce in 55 naturally, but the game showed us she still thinks of him even in 2018, it's been so long.... after all the welt joyce is the whole pillar emblem and creation of anti-entropy, it must be hard to be one of the founder of a worldwide organization based on your old lover's legacy otl

Thank you very much!!! Both for the compliment and the question. I often think about 55's aftermath, of course. And these thoughts torment me most of the time so that I draw sketches and make hcs about the alternative outcome. Sometimes I do want to draw more arts about canonical events, and I probably will but it's just...hard.  

Now further goes my headcanonical 1955 disaster aftermath and einjoyce fan ramble and I’m sorry in advance if this is not what you expected to hear from me: 

In the novel, Ada mentioned that after waking up, Ein and Tesla accepted everything that had happened very calmly. But I imagine Ada wasn't present there when they woke up, she spent all her time with Joachim and took care of him. And maybe at some point, the boy got so attached to her that that’s why he eventually decided to run away with her for 20 years, away from the problems and legacy of the late hero (And then hi3 mentions Ada only...what, once?) I imagine that Ada was really the only one who could look after Joachim because Planck spent most of her time in the hospital. 

So, now let’s talk about Planck. I love Emma, she might have quirks but she’s very dear to me. She played the mother figure whose presence could bring the sense of peace, comfort and safety. Emma was “everything is going to be alright” person with a strong yet soft spirit, she was someone Lieserl aspired to be. But oh, how lonely she’d been...throughout all her life. I think Carl was the only one who understood her like no one else. Then she lost him and was on the verge of losing her dear girls. Not to mention she had already lost Edison and Schrodinger. She had to take Edison's place and single-handedly create an entire organization out of the ashes, and Schrodinger...Planck did not live to see the day when it turned out that Erwin was alive. So yeah, Emma was a lonely woman with no one by her side but the unthinkable unbearable burden, she was the first one who had to carry the weight of the World on her shoulders. All in all, back in 1955-56 Plank was either in the hospital or busy trying to find a new base. Oh, yes, most likely she had to organize funerals which Ein and Tesla, obviously, missed. 

Ein and Tesla...as I’ve already said once, not seeing waking-up-from-coma scene in the novel was the greatest loss but the greatest blessing at the same time. I think it was the hardest and most horrific moment in their lives. And I also like to imagine around then they got drunk together for the first time. 

To be honest, I admire Tesla's copium and how she's doing...mostly alright these days. Especially regarding her unfortunate life. But damn how easily 1955 can trigger her. I think she's been holding a very deep personal grudge against Welt all these years. She almost never mentions him or speaks his name out load and, in general, she never speaks of those years either, unlike Ein. If Ein and Joachim are stuck mentally in the past, Tesla seems to exist only within "today". It's only when Joachim tries to sacrifice himself over and over again all the accumulated resentment and despair wakes up in her. Because Welt's sacrifice did all this to Joachim and Welt's legacy is louder than Tesla's cry to stop playing a lonely hero. I think Tesla is a definition of "I told you so" in this story. She was the one who foresaw Welt's death. She was the one who wanted to share her "know there's nothing worth remembering in our lives so there's no need to dwell on the past" ideology to help him let go of the guilt and start appreciating his life. I think she cared about him no less then Ein because I see Tesla and Welt as a younger brother/older sister duo, they always bicker, tease but care for each other nonetheless. So of course when she woke up, she was lost, angry, hysterical and hurt. I think she deserves no less than Joachim or Ein the opportunity to meet Welt again and to talk everything she’s been holding inside all these years out. But apparently this was too boring for the writers, and they just decided to erase Welt’s soul for forever and took away from AE the opportunity to try locating his soul in the core and bring him back when they’re not busy preventing the end of the world every day. But instead, we got Joffrey (I have nothing against the boy but this whole clone thing just feels so.... utterly wrong, help). And I find it ironic that the one who unwillingly made Tesla’s life a mess is, kinda, became her son whom she’s been taking care of and who will be by her side from now on. 

And Lieserl...you know, I’ve never been a fan of romantic stories but somehow einjoyce got a chokehold on me and my heart, for me they’re the true manifestation of soulmates and match-made-in-heaven thing. I already had a little brainrot post about her living after 1955 but yes, you are right, she still thinks of him even in 2018 and I still can’t wrap my mind around it. That and the fact she’d been analysing him for 3 years before she took him in to the 42 lab. For 3 years, without seeing him in person (and she even tried to practice talking less “nonsense” so she would look mysterious and idk attractive to him? But totally failed on the very first day spent together with him). And then, in the course of one, ONE, month Welt became someone who could not only understand Ein’s quirks, chaotic thoughts but also enjoy her personality and communicate with her in pure silence. He was the last one she talked to so freely and who actually listened to her. And Lieserl being ready to rather die than let Erwin hurt Welt is a whole “hear me out” conversation on its own. So yes, I believe a part of her died that day with Welt and the other - later on with the death of her "ultimate navigator" Planck (I still think about how she shortly mentioned that that period was a nightmare for the organization). Now she's just Doctor Einstein and even though she acts as her younger self from time to time she still feels like an... empty cold vessel with an escapistic fixation on work, books and games. And if she has no Tesla to tease, no work to do, no book to read and no game to play, she escapes into nostalgic thoughts. Does she really care about the future of the world and humanity? Because I think she can't care less about 99% people around her. She and Joachim are just driven by symbolic and twisted sense of Welt's legacy who thought his death would be insignificant and then it turned their lives upside down and inside out. Does she even care about Joachim or just sees him as a part of Welt’s legacy? 

But back to the 1956. 

Would it be too sadistic to imagine she had a long dream in which no one died whilst she was in coma? I remember I had an old headcanon similar to this one but it's about present days where 14th Herrscher puts everyone to sleep with an ideal dream. And it back loops to the moment when Ein wakes up in sweat early in the morning in the villa of Southend-on-Sea.  

But anyway. The moment when she woke up from coma...I’m no writer but let’s say her consciousness awakened before her sensations. She couldn't understand where she was or who she was. She didn't remember what happened. And this void of perception caused both calmness and unease for her, everything around felt like through fathomless water. It was hard for her to open eyes and concentrate because she was met by blinding light and dizziness instead. Her hands were shaking, and her body was shivering when she tried to get up. As she called for Welt and Tesla her lips felt numb and every word seemed to scratch her throat, taking away all her energy so that she was ready to fall asleep again. And let’s say Tesla woke up sooner than Ein so that Nicola and Emma were both in anticipation and fear of the moment when she would wake up only to split her life into “before” and “after” with mere three words. She would be in denial and panic would slowly rise up her throat. As the realisation set in, she would slowly suffocate on the verge of tears. Because all of it was so unfair, she entrusted her little World’s fate to the world, and it took him away. She failed to protect him, and the guilt slowly consumed her from the inside day after day, year after year. And to give her an eternal life with an option of ending it by her will is... sigh. I hope she and Tesla at least got sedative pills while in hospital. 

So that’s when Tesla and Ein formed a strong bond. But their problem is that they are constantly keeping all their opinions, feelings and thoughts to themselves (yes, even Tesla) and most likely it resulted in various quarrels and then Emma helped them realise that from now on they only have each other and the life will go on but in the end... they will be the only one left.  

Sometimes I forget that not long after all of this hospital chaos they took part in numerous interviews with Joachim who had to shapeshift into Welt's appearance, and he had to do that for years. That's almost as dreadful as getting eternal lives.  

As you can see, I can endlessly talk about them and all the known scenes they took part in after 1955. I honestly tried to write my thoughts as short as possible, and I hope you don’t regret opening this door into abyss of my endless thoughts with your question. 

[deep-space-lines]

what is your opinion of your Geth?

deep breath OKAY. ohhh boy. here we go.

I was a "this is my OC, a sentient robot struggling with their humanity" sort of teen, which is just code for "ace and neurodivergent but doesn't know it yet", & when Legion showed up I was like, oh ok I see! I need to protect this guy with my life. stupidly long response incoming-

I love the geth so much ok. I've got a few unfinished doodles of Legion lying around because I LOVE drawing robots so much and Legion's design is just so neat, I'm really looking forward to working on their stained glass piece because mechanical stuff and stained glass go together better than one would think! It makes me sad that you can't explore all of their dialogue in ME2 without killing the Normandy's crew :( I don't remember for sure but I think I actually installed a mod that lets you talk to them more before the suicide mission, genuinely wish they'd gotten more screen time!! The geth are one of the few intelligent aliens we see whose thoughts and society are completely and truly alien and I love that!!

BUT I think ME2/3 could've handled them so much better. Especially ME3. Ok I really don’t like what ME3 does to the geth. I like ME3, but there’s a lot of things I need to mentally slap a headcanon bandage over and the geth are one of them.

The fact that they're genuinely alien and don't think the same way or view themselves as individuals the same way organics do doesn't make them any less sentient? I would've liked it so much better to see everyone overcome the challenges of understanding something that thinks in a completely different way, rather than one side having to fundamentally change to make peace possible. I loved the fact that in ME2 they didn’t seem to want to become more ‘human’/organic! Legion was already ‘alive’ before the Reaper code upgrades. Those units have a soul in Mass Effect 2 too! I just don’t really like “already clearly sentient robot has to change themselves to think more like a typical human” plots :( (glances at Data from Star Trek.. my boy you are just autistic)

I also don't like that the peaceful resolution to the geth/quarian conflict involves Legion uploading Reaper code upgrades. It just doesn't make narrative sense? We get so, so, SO many examples throughout the course of the game of a) the geth using Reaper tech and being indoctrinated, and b) other people trying to use Reaper tech for their own purposes and having it backfire big-time. ME1: The geth are controlled by Reapers so you have to kill them. ME2: The geth heretics are controlled by the Reapers because of Reaper code so you have to kill/rewrite them. ME3: The geth are being controlled by the Reapers so you have to… give them more Reaper code???

I always make peace between the geth and quarians because I love Legion and Tali, and I know there's a happy ending there so I can headcanon away a better explanation. But when I played for the first time, I had no spoilers, zero outside knowledge, and I chose to destroy the geth, because if I were Shepard in that situation and Legion was telling me they wanted to upload Reaper code because this time it's gonna be different we promise, I would not let them do that???

But APART FROM THAT I love the geth. I would've loved to see more of the geth interacting with other aliens in the galaxy after peace is made, and what impact that would have on their society. They were initially slaves, and then almost completely isolated themselves from organic life. And sure, they did some observing, but actually interacting with the other races would've been a whole different ball game, and it would've been so COOL to see the geth explore not only other cultures/societies and be surprised when they were unable to accurately predict the actions of individual organics, but also to see how they develop in relation to that, how it changes the way they see themselves. How they'd have to learn to effectively communicate with organics when they're used to sharing information at lightspeed. How they as a species would navigate political or interpersonal, rather than physical, conflict... I just wish we got more geth content bc they’re one of my favorite aliens & I really hope ME5 gives us more geth

OK my apologies if requests r closed but if not;

I just maybe possibly most likely sprained my wrist, and i was wondering if u could write some hc's for the demon brothers taking care of mc after they had an accident and hurt their dominant hand (bc i would like comfort ty very much i rlly appreciate it/gen)

Brothers Caring For GN!MC Who Sprained Their Wrist (Headcanons)

A/N : Oh god, sprains are so annoying, so I really hope your wrist feels better soon, anon <3

Lucifer

He’ll definitely help take care of you, but not in like… a babying type of way. More so, if you need his help, he’ll be there in the blink of an eye, but he doesn’t want to hover… unless you want him to hover… He can do that too.

Since it is your dominant hand, he can’t imagine not being able to use his dominant hand, so he’ll definitely help you with writing or texting.

He’ll make sure that you’re following doctor’s orders though because he wants your wrist to heal quickly so you won’t be in pain anymore.

Mammon

He’s very worried. Whether you come in with a splint, a cast, or the bandage that keeps you from moving your wrist too much… He’s panicking, and he has so many questions. What happened? Who did it? Where are they? Are you okay?

He’s definitely babying you, you’re his human, and he’s going to make sure that you get the very best care he can give you. No matter how annoying it may seem.

Although he doesn’t know much about how to treat a sprained wrist, he’s very good at getting the ice packs, and the pain medicine. He still feels like he’s doing a good job though, and he’s trying his very best.

Leviathan

At first he thought that it was just a joke and your way of getting out of playing video games with him (please don’t get mad at him for thinking that though, it’s just his pessimistic brain talking.)

When he realizes that you really did sprain your wrist he feels really bad for assuming, and he’s going to help wherever and whenever he can. He’ll help you rebandage your wrist if you need help with it, and he’ll probably be really blushy the entire time.

He’s not really the best at caring for other people since he is usually alone, but he’ll do his best to try to care for you because you mean a lot to him.

Satan

He is the #1 caretaker… There's a book about this and he’s read it. He’s going to ask you a bunch of questions, and he’ll probably sound more like a doctor than any doctor you’ve seen.

He’ll really delicately examine your wrist, make sure there’s no swelling and no redness. While your wrist is still healing he’ll hold all the books that you want to read, and he’s kind of taking advantage of this because he gets to spend more time with you.

Dr. Satan knows all the remedies, all the at-home care and treatments for this, and he’s going to show you all of them. He won’t let you be in too much pain for too long.

Asmodeus

He’s got a lot of questions, but the main one is if it hurts, and if it does, how bad? He doesn’t want you in pain, it hurts his heart. He will help you with anything, literally anything.

He hovers, but only because he cares a lot. If you need help in the shower, he’ll offer to help (not in a sexual way, in a “please let me help you” type of way). If your wrist is in one of the bandages, he offers to find nicer ones that’ll match your outfits. Just little ways to brighten up your look on it.

He actually follows the doctor's orders very closely. He also really likes to do little doodles on your hand to keep you smiling throughout the day.

Beelzebub

With all the working out he does and the sports that he plays, he knows what it’s like to have a hurt wrist, although, as a demon, he heals pretty fast and it doesn’t hurt as bad. He definitely knows how to care for a sprained wrist though.

He’s a big proponent of letting your wrist rest, so he will do everything he can to keep you from using that hand at all. He’ll help feed you, and he’ll buy cute little curly straws to put in your cups so that you don’t have to lift them.

Basically, he’s letting both your wrists rest until you’re all better. He doesn’t want you to put extra strain on your other wrist to compensate, so he will do everything for you.

Belphegor

He doesn’t ask many questions because he doesn’t want to pester you about it, he mainly wants to know what it is that he can do to help you heal faster.

He’ll bring you ice packs, and pain medication, he’ll also use all of the pillows on his bed for you to rest your hand on to keep it elevated. He’ll definitely ask you to stay up in the attic with him just so he knows that you’re not straining your wrist or using it too much.

After you’re healed is when he’ll ask all the questions. He really just wants to know if someone did it to you. He waited so he could fully focus on you and get your wrist better first though.

pls talk more about dawn,, also diluc's hawk!! I'm just curious about them both.

with pleasure !!

i've actually been meaning to make a whole post about dawn with doodles for reference, but since i've never gotten around to the doodling bit i only have this to offer right now

the gist of it, if it's not obvious, is that dawn grew up alongside diluc. she was just a baby phoenix chick when he first got his vision (diluc probably first summoned her by trying to make his flames take specific shapes, with birds of prey being especially familiar given theyre a family symbol). she went from the size of a hawk to the size of a giant condor throughout his teenage years. of course, giving up his vision meant parting with her as well, so it was quite the shock to summon her again years later and seeing how much she'd grown.

that's also when diluc acquired a better understanding of what she really was. before then, she'd always been a very friendly presence, enthusiastic, intrepid, eager to please. diluc simply figured he'd been blessed with an elemental companion (think of oz, or razor's electro wolf - although i doubt either of those had their visions back then already, i assume it wasnt completely unheard of). however, dawn was very different from how diluc remembered her when they reunited - not only bigger, but also much more fierce and standoffish, not unlike the vision-bearer who brought her to life.

for dawn is not just a companion but a reflection of diluc himself, an embodiment of his soul brought about through the element he's so attuned to. think of daemons in the golden compass/his dark materials - dawn is much like that ! she can reveal diluc's state of mind or how he might feel about the people he's with, for example - which is part of the reason why he only calls upon her in battle nowadays. they share a very strong connection; diluc will feel it if she gets hurt (also why she's only summoned briefly in battle when she is), just as he will feel it if she's praised or dotted on.

of course, keeping her ignited takes energy in and of itself, though it can be worth it in certain situations (like wanting to keep warm or intimidate), and certain circumstances (like having her out for very long or flying away very far) makes it more demanding. notably, keeping her out and about in the rain is very unpleasant for the both of them, you can actually see her flames are more scattered and not as bright

as for diluc's bird,

this was actually the first headcanon i ever posted on my original blog. the gist of my theory being that it's vennessa. to reprise the main points making up this theory:

vennessa reincarnated into a falcon that looks very similar to the one in diluc's idle animation. she's also one of the four winds, 'the falcon of the west', and would be the only one of the four winds we still haven't seen in-game for some reason if she wasn't the bird in diluc's idle.

in the manga, venti see her after waking from a long nap and says something along the lines of 'oh she's still watching over mondstadt', implying that she very much is still around and keeping watch after all these years, in spite of what people may think.

there’s a number of hints that strongly imply diluc is vennessa’s descendent; the several bird symbols associated with the ragnvindr family, the hair color, the connection to pyro (children of murata), etc. which would explain why vennessa would check on him regularly

perhaps less relevant, but the dawn winery area is the westernmost region of mondstadt, so it would even make sense if she kept an eye on this area especially.

the idea behind diluc's first encounter with her is similar to that of dawn's, in that he was very young at the time and didnt really catch on to her true nature until years later. i like to think she would have approached him out in the wild, and being already familar with the basics of falconry (thanks dad) diluc simply offered an arm as a perch and never questioned why a wild falcon would already be trained. again, they eventually got wind (eheheheehe) of her identity over the years, but her secret is safe with him.

(the new idle is legitimately the first thing to make me doubt this theory, although it made a lot of sense up until this point, i dont think the spirit of vennessa would serve as diluc's personal messenger bird - not unless it's to dive into another potential theory that she specifically watches over him because he defends mondstadt on her behalf, but that's much less likely. i really hope we actually get a bit of lore on that front with the new outfit so i can decide whether or not to adjust my interpretation sdfjhfsdh)

Your first meeting was all a bit of a misunderstanding, you caught Changsub pulling a funny face, presuming that he was doing it in your direction, pulling one back. It was only when you noticed a guy behind you, you realised it wasn’t actually at you, but Changsub was far too much of a tease to ignore what you’d done.

C ⇴ CONFESSION 

It all ended up working in your favour though, and the two of you got to know each other well. Changsub ended up confessing how much he enjoyed getting to know you through a short song that he’d written. Music was his best way of expressing himself, and so he invited you over to his place one day, with plenty of instruments laid out in the living room, inviting you to sit down and listen to what he had to say.

D ⇴ DATES 

His love for music often resonated into your dates as well, Changsub loved to take you to live gigs and other events in the city, whether it was music, a film, or even sometimes a comedy event, he loved seeing someone else go through the adrenaline of being on stage as he often experienced. You just tended to trust him and his suggestions on places that the two of you could go to, but they usually turned out to be a pretty good time anyway, with only a few minor hiccups along the way with some acts.

E ⇴ EXPERIENCE 

Changsub had some old dating rumours which certainly played on his mind when the two of you began to get together. He was determined to keep you protected out of the vicious cycle that the Korean media could be, and make sure that you were sure that a relationship was something that you definitely wanted before things got too serious between you both. Changsub couldn’t help but worry, and also the last thing he wanted was to deal with the attention of a dating rumour once again.

F ⇴ FIGHTING 

If there was one thing you learnt about Changsub quite early on in your relationship, it was that no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn’t hide whenever he was in a bad mood. It usually ended up working in your favour as you’d know when to steer clear of him and when not to start an argument because he was feeling pretty low. But if you managed to catch him off guard, then the bad mood would very quickly be very obvious to you, and once you’d been caught by his vents of frustrations, it was usually a pretty terrible loophole for you to find your way out of without the two of you arguing with each other first.

G ⇴ GETTING TO KNOW HIS FAMILY 

Changsub was incredibly close with his family, which made you incredibly anxious to meet them all. You were terrified, putting off your first meeting for as long as you possibly could, until his sister’s birthday came around, and Changsub promised that you’d be in attendance without even asking you to join him.

H ⇴ HOME 

You were quite quick to move into Changsub’s place, he loved having you there and the company that you brought. It was no fun for him to mess around in such a nice apartment all by himself, and so having you there to enjoy it with him was definitely something that he wanted sooner rather than later in your relationship.

I ⇴ “I LOVE YOU” 

Changsub ended up being the first of the two of you to say, ‘I love you,’ on a letter that he wrote whilst BTOB were in the middle of a tour. He was far too nervous to ring you or say it in person, so at the end of a lengthy letter about all the adventures he’d been on so far, he signed it off with his name, and his confession too.

J ⇴ JEALOUSY 

Just like with his bad moods, it was very apparent to you too when Changsub would be feeling jealous too. His face always managed to give it away, how his eyes would narrow at whoever was making him feel jealous, and how he’d always poke his tongue against the inside of his cheek. Whenever you’d challenge him about it, he’d always vow that he wasn’t jealous, but as soon as you’d imitate the face that you saw him pulling across the room, he’d know the game was up and that he didn’t have a leg to stand on.

K ⇴ KIDS 

You certainly felt the pressure from his family to start considering a family of your own quite soon into your relationship. They knew the two of you were great, and it was obvious to them all that the two of you were going to stick together, and with that, their minds instantly looked to kids. Changsub could often only apologise for how forward they were, assuring them it was something you’d think about when the time was right.

L ⇴ LAUGHTER 

Changsub had plenty of quirks and weird habits that meant there weren’t many times around him that you didn’t have a smile on your face. You never knew quite what to expect from him next, one minute he’d be serious and an adult, the next minute he’d be running around the place like a kid, trying to get you involved in all sorts of pranks and jokes on the other members. Changsub loved to enjoy himself and was more than happy in expressing himself and how crazy he could be without the fear of what others would think. All that mattered was that you loved and enjoyed the person that he was.

M ⇴ MISSING 

Just like with many other stages of emotion, it was very clear to the group when Changsub was missing you on the road too. Of course, as with his jealous, he’d argue that he was fine, but the group hadn’t spent a decade together for no reason, they knew Changsub better than he knew himself sometimes. Eventually they’d manage to wear him down into admitting that he was struggling, but not before he made them all promise that they wouldn’t tell you how low he was feeling, because as he always told them, and you, the last thing he wanted to do was make the tour more difficult for you.

N ⇴ NICKNAMES 

Changsub loved to give you cute nicknames that he knew would make you blush. He was always coming up with new ones, sometimes very random, but each one always managed to get him a reaction out of you.

O ⇴ OBSESSION 

He was obsessed with your eyes, he could always tell exactly what was going on and how you were feeling, usually just by the way that you looked back at him.

P ⇴ PDA 

You could never expect Changsub to be normal with his affection in public, he loved to clown around, and would often play up to any cameras that were around too, knowing that the fans loved to see the two of you too. No matter what, it would always take you by surprise, and leave him scolded when you got home too.

Q ⇴ QUESTIONS 

He’ll always make sure to check in and see how you are at various points throughout your day together. Your eyes are always a giveaway, so if you lie, then he’ll just keep asking until he gets the truth out of you.

R ⇴ RANDOM FACTS 

You’ll often find yourself falling asleep with your fingers tracing over Changsub’s tattoos, usually with him already fast asleep beside you. You’ll often doodle new ones too, tracing random patterns along his arm or his ribcage. Although he never lets on, the feeling of your fingers trailing along his skin is definitely a feeling that helps him sleep tonight, although he’s far too scared to admit that to you in person.

S ⇴ SEX 

For the most part, Changsub is always incredibly loving when it comes to intimacy, he enjoys the moment and the adrenaline rush that comes with it. However, it usually isn’t long before he starts up with his usual antics, when he finds himself falling too deeply, he’ll come out with a joke or make a funny remark to try and make things a little less intense between the two of you, never quite knowing how to cope with the sudden passion.

T ⇴ TEXTS 

If he can’t ask you in person how you’re doing, then Changsub will often text you instead. Although he never wholly trusts in your response, the fact that you responded alone is usually a good enough sign for him.

U ⇴ UNIVERSE 

More than anything else, Changsub loves that you’re someone who can really appreciate his sense of humour and give him somewhere to be himself. He never has to hide or pretend around you, because you love every part of who he is.

V ⇴ VACATION 

It had been quite a while since Changsub got to spend some time with his family, and so when the chance to go away came around, he decided to create a huge trip for you, him, and his family too. It was also the perfect chance for you to get to know them more too, and another event that you couldn’t back out of.

W ⇴ WHINING 

There were definitely times that Changsub would whine, whilst he didn’t crave attention, sometimes he just couldn’t help but want your eyes on him.

X ⇴ XXXXX 

He would love nothing more than when he was able to tease you with his kisses, he loved to pull away just as you began to deepen a kiss, or tug gently against your bottom lip when you were busy in the hope that it would distract you from what you were doing and put your attention on him. However, if you ever did that to him, you could be guaranteed to be in big trouble with him, unimpressed by your antics.

Y ⇴ YOU 

You were his best friends, together you were the best possible team.

Z ⇴ ZZZ 

The struggle was definitely real when it came to trying to wake Changsub up in the morning. You’d never known someone sleep as well as he did, often resorting to dangerous tactics to try and wake him up and get him out of bed.

[toorumochi]

Hello~ I created some KaruShuu Headcanons for you guys~ hope you enjoy ❤️🧡 (Questions ain’t mine, I just answered them) Also some of them are based off fanfics I have written/read.

Who rocks the Ferris Wheel seat and who flips out and begs them to stop?

KARMA IS A BITCH AND IS ROCKING THE FERRIS WHEEL SEAT WHILE SHUU IS HOLDING ONTO THE POLE FOR DEAR LIFE

Who is always horny and will have sex at any time, at any place and at any time?

Hm. Both. Lmao

Who is more into taking showers/baths together? Who tries to make it relaxing and who tries to make it sexy time?

Karma is the sexy time, always time and Shuu is the relaxing time one BUT. That doesn’t mean he isn’t playing along with Karma

Who likes to walk around the house naked and who tells the other to go put some clothes on?

Karma. Karma walks around at least half naked maybe some boxers - and it’s not like shuu doesn’t enjoy watching his manly man walking around the house beefy af and flexing his muscles without even trying but he still tells karma to put some clothes on

Who sleeps on the couch when they get into a fight?

I DONT CAREEE HOW SOFT THE ARGUMENT WAS. KARMA SLEEPS ON THE COUCH.

Who takes photos of the other while they sleep?

BOTH DO. BOTH DO TAKE PICS OF THE OTHER ONE AND THEY TEASE THEM WITH THE PICS LATER ON

Who said “I love you” first? and who ends their arguments in a fight with “Because I love you”?

I would say that Karma was the first one who said ‘I love you’ and the ‘bc I love you’ feels like smth Shuu would say

Who likes to wear the others sweatshirts?

Shuu likes to wear Karmas, and then:

“...shuu pls give me my clothes back I swear I have nothing to wear-“

Who wakes the other up in the middle of the night to tell them a cool dream they had? Who has the most nightmares, and who sings them back to sleep after?

Karma would be the one with cool dreams and wake Shuu up but since Shuu is a supporting bf/husband he will listen to him ❤️ and when it comes to nightmares, I would say that Shuu gets them but Karma is always there to comfort him ❤️❤️

Who is more likely to cheat?

No❤️ but if it’s in a video game- karma. He is a little bitc-

Who makes fun of the other for having a crush on them, and who has to remind them that they are in a relationship?

NDNSNSNSBD KARMA WOULD MAKE JOKES ABOUT IT LIKE

“Wait whattt??? You have a crush on me? Omggg stahp I’m blushing now”

“......Karma we are dating-“

Or better!

“What? Omg- really? You actually have a crush on me? Damn Shuu why didn’t you tell me”

“...Karma we are marrIED-“

Who starts a food fight in the kitchen?

Karma is a little bitch and he would start with maybe splashing some water onto Shuu and then Shuu turns to face him with a straight face “oh it’s on”

Who initiates duets? and who is the better singer?

Both initiate duets; anywhere and everywhere - and Shuu is the better singer. Karma sounds like a bitch

Who starts the hand holding? Who grabs the others butt? Who slides their arm around their waist? Who likes to put their fingers in the belt loops?

Hmmm maybe Karma would take it easy with the hand holding; like he would start taking Shuus hand when they are at home and when it comes to public he lets it be and waits for Shuu; cause if he is ready to hold hands, Karma is ready too.

GRABBING BUTTS- OMG PLS. KARMA. KARMA WOULD. AND AND HE WOULD TEASE SHUU ABOUT BEING HEAVIER THAT HE IS AND SAY THAT HIS ASS IS 4KG HEAVIER.

AND THE ARM SLIDING AROUND THE WAIST- *slams fist on the table* KARMA WOULD DO THIS ANYWHERE LITERALLY ANYWHERE.

AND THE BELT LOOPS- SHUU. SHUU WOULD THIS BUT LIKE HE WOULD DO IT AS A SIGN THAT HE IS UNCOMFORTABLE AND WANTS TO LEAVE SO HE SHOWS IT TO KARMA THAT WAY AND I THINK ITS ADORABLE.

Who likes to write the others name on their wrist?

Karma would doodle his own name on Shuus arm during study sessions or so ksksksks bonus: Shuu does NOT wash it off, when in the shower, he has this one hand stretched out so the water won’t touch the doodle.

Who is more seductive when they are drunk? and who is louder in bed?

Shuu. Both is Shuu. Pls.

Who is more protective?

Karma is pretty protective- but not in an obsessive way, more like taking care of Shuu and his health as well as his eating habits and sleep

Who talks to the other while they are sleeping?

Karma would just talk and talk till Shuu falls asleep but karma KEEPS ON TALKI-

Who drives and who has the window seat?

Karma drives bc he is the most terrain oriented and besides, Shuu likes to drink from time to time (like coming back from parties or so) so there is no way that a drunk Shuu at the steering wheel would survive.

Who falls asleep in the others lap and who carries them to bed?

Shuu would fall asleep in Karmas lap (DURING SHREK MARATHONSSS 🥴 Idk if anyone gets that but in my fanfics on Wattpad Karma is OBSESSED with Shrek lmao so Shrek marathons >>>) and Karma would carry him to bed.

Who cuts the others hair?

I would say Shuu would cut Karmas hair, pls he is perfect at everything. (.......except cooking and baking *clears throat*)

Who is super bad at sexting? and who sends them encouraging messages throughout the day?

Shuu is hella bad at sexting, but when he is drunk he is the god of flirting lmao

And the encouraging ones- hm... both djdjdjd

Who thinks they are not good enough for the others love? and who’s more afraid of loosing the other? Who thinks they keep messing up, only for the other to tell them they don’t need to worry?

AAAAAA NOOOO *war flashbacks: “You’re my Moron” fanfic ending II”*

Who starts random slow dancing with the other in the kitchen? Who holds the other just above the ground and kisses them?

KARMA KARMA KARMA WOULD. KARMA WOULD START TO RANDOMLY SLOW DANCE WITH SHUU IN THE KITCHEN AND THEN KISS HIM AAAAA

Who says shitty puns and sex jokes just to see the other giggle and blush?

KARMA DOES THIS IN THE MOST INAPPROPRIATE TIMES PLS

Who kissed first?

OH OH!!!

I think!!! That if maybe Karma was the first one to confess bc come on, Shuu has a reputation so yea, but when it comes to first kiss- Shuu would. Shuu would be the one who kisses Karma like totally randomly, maybe hanging out at each other houses and watching a movie and then Shuu leaNS IN AND KISSES HIM AAAAA-

Who orders take out at two in a morning? and who wakes the other up at three in the morning to go downstairs with them to get a glass of water because it’s too dark?

JDJSJSHS KARMA WOULD ORDER TAKE OUT BUT ONLY WHEN THEY ARE MAKING MOVIE MARATHONS AND THE FOOD RUNS OUT- AND THE THREE AM WATER GETTING IS SHUU BC HE IS JUST SCARED OF THE DARK YES.

Who writes poems/stories and love songs about the other? Do they sing the songs the write for them?

YES. THIS. SHUU WOULD. Since he plays many instruments, he finds himself creating love songs for Karma butttt he wouldn’t give them to him bc he would be too embarrassed ndndndnd on the other hand, Karma would write poetry and stories for Shuu like very dorky ones and cute and Shuu finds it adorable on the inside but he has to keep his reputation and standards and stuff like that up so he just says it’s stupid but let me tell you, that boy loves Karmas poetry and stories

Who does some crazy stunt to try and impress the other and who ends up driving them to the emergency room after it backfires?

KARMA WOULD TRY TO IMPRESS AND THEN BAM. HOSPITAL.

BUT. JUST BC KARMA IS A DORK, IT DOESNT MEAN THAT SHUU ISN’T. IMAGINE SHUU TRYING TO BAKE SMTH FOR KARMA FOR THE FIRST TIME AND HE FUCKS UP SO BADLY THEY HAD TO CALL A FIRE DEPARTMENT-

Who is embarrassed when they have to wear their glasses and who thinks they look super cute?

KARMA WOULD WEAR GLASSES BUT HE WOULDN’T BE EMBARRASSED BUTTT SHUU WOULD FIND HIM EVEN MORE ATTRACTIVE

BOTH, they worry that they won’t be good looking enough for the other one

who hogs the blanket?

Karma is a hoe.

Headcanons for April Fool's Day

Don't you just love April Fool's Day? I joined my very first event on April 1st, I think, so I wanted to do something this year as well

Kayano once pretended to know how to to play the piano for a role in a movie and actually had to play a song during a scene. She did not know how to play the piano

Legit just speedran learning how to play that one specific song in like 3 days

Memorized all the hand positions since she can't read sheet music and can still kinda play it now

Had to sing for a movie audition once but couldn't remember any songs so she sang happy birthday. She still got the part

Gakuho played video games once or twice after being kicked out of principal-ing and Kanzaki beat him in the game quite brutally

He never even stood a chance

Sugaya paints all over his room. His ceiling is galaxy. He painted a forest on his favorite wall. There is no escape from the smell of paint

His second favorite wall has a big chalkboard on it and he and the rest of the Art Trio doodle on it all the time

If Sugino and Maehara ever meet each other on their way to school they try and race each other into the classroom. Kimura almost always manages to come in from behind and win, because he was racing with Okano behind them

Itona and Hazama are lowkey cat magnets. Tgang leaves them alone at the park for 5 seconds and they already have 2 new cat friends

They are also crow magnets but that's just cause they always feed a murder of them once a week and now the crows love them

Kayano and Itona have good senses of smell so sometimes they walk into a room with food and try to guess what it is

Once it was something neither of them actually knew, but still guessed "whatever it is, the sauce is red"

(They were right)

Isogai and Maehara became friends so long ago that neither of them really know when they became friends, so they can't truly celebrate the anniversary of their friendship

Maehara's solution is to simply celebrate it on random days throughout the year

Yoshida and Hara on the other hand

Also don't know when their friendship's anniversary either

However he is mentioned in Hara's old diary, so they picked the page mentioning Yoshida that was dated the earliest, and decided to celebrate that for their anniversary

They both have it marked on their calenders

As per (am i using that phrase right?) this post, the class celebrate Nakamura and Karma's birthdays on April Fools as a joke

Fuwa and Takebayashi have a running joke of greeting each other with a line from a manga/anime and seeing if the other recognizes it

And then the other responds with another line from the same series

Fuwa: Go, go, let's go, let's go, Dateko!!

Takebayashi: rolling thunder!!

Sugino has doodles of the entire class scattered about in his notebook

While Nagisa's is fairly detailed, Karma's consists of 3 shapes: a circle with 2 devil horns on it

Once Kimura pranked the class and then framed Karma and Nakamura

Hara's little brothers legit love playing with Yoshisa when he comes over. Like he can drive a motorcycle and in their eyes that's just the Epitome of Coolness

Yoshida's older sister and Hara bond over teasing and jokingly complaining over the dumb stuff Yoshida does

Hara and Yoshida have gotten so much blackmail on each other over the years

Itona is annoyingly good at keeping a poker face during blackjack

Kayano is the most likely to cheat at card games in group 4. Everyone suspects Karma too much for him to cheat and the rest are mostly pretty fair in card games

Nakamura constantly tries to marry people during monopoly to have more money

I have only just now realized that Ritsu probably knows Every Meme in Existence and i just feel like that's a nice fact by itself

93% of Maehara's conversations with his sisters are just teasing each other mercilessly. The other 7% is gossiping about their classmates

Chiba is always dragged into pillow fights by his siblings, joke's on them though cause he can accurately throw pillows at them from across the room

Under no circumstances may Sugino's little brother be left alone with Karma. The two of them really hit it off after the kid picked up when he tried to prank call Karma from Sugino's phone, and then they both tried to prank call each other instead

Karma, Kayano, and Sugino give each other very stupid dares all the time. Kanzaki pretends to be against this but secretly dares them to do something more chaotic. Okuda can sometimes be convinced to let them do it if given the right reasoning ("for science!") and also some safety precautions. Nagisa lowkey regrets making friends that don't have any common sense

Nakamura once had a dream when she was 10 that her mom threw her into a ball pit and she couldn't get out. Then a guy gave her candy, and told she was in North Korean and couldn't get out. It's been in her top 5 scariest dreams ever since

[the-currian]

May I request for 16 with tsumugi from the prompt list please 🥺 i have such bad tsumugi brainworms now 😭

OKAY TSUMUGI IS A FREAKING ANGEL, ALL MY UWU’s ARE FOR HIM. Also I hope you don’t mind, I inserted a certain headcanon of mine for this scenario - I feel like Tsumu would be the type of person to keep a bullet journal to make up for his weakness in technology. All people I know that keep bullet journals (myself included) tend to be obsessive over their bujo habits and I personally beat myself up a bit whenever I screw up something in my bullet journal huhu.

16. Knows your schedule from the back of their heads (and gets shocked when there is a sudden change to your routine)

Tsumugi prided himself on being an organized person. While he wasn’t as strait-laced as a certain childhood friend of his, Tsumugi was quite meticulous.

Not that keen with technology, Tsumugi had developed the habit of keeping a bullet journal. He relished in being able to express himself through his writing – keeping pages filled with trivial things like random doodles, to sentimental things like pressed flowers, to important things like training regimens and daily spreads. It only made sense to him that when you two started dating he would make spreads with you as his muse. Aside from some spreads that he kept of the memories you two have made as a couple, he included your daily activities alongside his own daily spreads.

Which is why Tsumugi is surprised to see you in the audience of his troupe’s public dress rehearsal. His head immediately starts racing in confusion.

‘Did I get their schedule wrong? What are they doing here?’

Tsumugi’s apparent carelessness in keeping track of your schedule bothers him so much that his anxiety starts to manifest in his acting. He tries his best to hold in his grimace onstage when he hears murmuring coming from the audience. His castmates pick up on it, too, and struggle to follow through with their performance with their leader’s head in the clouds. The tense atmosphere of the theater drags on until Tsumugi’s final monologue of the first act. He walks to the center of the stage when you catch his eye, and the silence before he starts becomes a bit too long as he zones out. You give him a smile and thumbs up in encouragement, trying your best to communicate your support for him in that moment without words. This seems to flip on a switch for Tsumugi and his eyes widen as he registers your actions. He delivers his lines with the prowess you know him to have, and you beam as the curtain falls, signaling the end of the first act.

Matsukawa’s voice rings throughout the intercom, announcing a fifteen-minute intermission, and you practically leap out of your seat to race over backstage. Not giving yourself any time for second-guessing you throw open the door without knocking, startling the members of the Winter Troupe. Ignoring all of the adults’ piercing gazes, you call out to your boyfriend.

“Tsumugi.” You say in a firm tone, prompting the other members to shuffle out of the room, mumbling excuses about going over to the wings.

Your boyfriend keeps his head hung down in shame, even as you approach him. Carefully, so as to not spook him, you place your hands on his shoulders.

“Tsumu.”

He still doesn’t look at you but he does make a little hum of affirmation to let you know he’s listening.

“What’s going on?” you say softly, gently rubbing circles into his shoulders to help him relax. “You’re off your game tonight. Come on, talk to me.”

Tsumugi stays quiet and you are about to rescind your offer and leave him to his thoughts, choosing to respect his need for space, when he grabs your wrists and finally looks at you. You’re startled to see sorrow and worry in his gaze.

“I’m sorry.” He says.

“Eh?” you can’t help but utter in confusion. “Sorry for what?”

Tsumugi sighs and stands up, picking up his bag from the dresser. As he rummages through it, your mind races as you speculate what could’ve prompted the unexpected apology coming from Tsumugi.

He produces a moleskin journal and starts frantically flipping through the pages, sputtering words like “journal” and “schedule”, too fast for you to follow.

“Tsumu, calm down!”

At your exasperated tone, he quiets himself and looks as if he’s about to draw himself back into his shell.

“No no, Tsumu, I’m not mad at you. Just tell me what you’re going on about clearly so I can understand what’s going on.” You say, this time in a much gentler tone. “Now, why did you feel the need to apologize?”

Tsumugi’s face colors as he turns his attention back to his journal, flipping to what looked like a color-coded page. He turns the journal to face you, and your attention is drawn to the big “OUR SCHEDULE” written in elegant calligraphy at the top of the page. You’re shocked, but also flattered, to see details about your daily and weekly schedule details written out in a way that complements his own. Something clicks in your head as you take note of the details that involve today’s dress rehearsal.

“Tsumu, is this what has you all worked up?” you ask, pointing out today’s schedule. It clearly stated that you had an outing today at work to attend to while he had his public dress rehearsal.

“Y-yeah.” He mutters. “I know I’m not that good with technology, so I keep this journal to help myself stay organized. Everything important to me is in here. Seeing you here at my event is kinda throwing me off my focus. Did I mishear you? Did I forget something? Was I not paying attention? Shouldn’t I know these things as your boy-“

“Hey,” you chide lightly, stopping him before he spirals down his train of thought. “Look at me.”

Reluctantly, he obliges.

“It’s okay to have some spontaneity. You didn’t mishear me, you didn’t forget anything – heck, you’re the most attentive boyfriend I’ve ever had and I absolutely love you for it.”

“Then why…?” he trails off with a pout, brow furrowed in frustration.

You give him a reassuring smile.

‘He’s just too cute!’

“I decided to skip the outing at work today so I could catch your dress rehearsal. It’s been awhile since your last play at your actual company, so I wanted to surprise you.” You let out a sheepish laugh. “Guess I didn’t surprise you the way I intended.”

Tsumugi’s eyes widen at your confession. Finally, a smile forms on his lips. “Thank you.”

You give him a peck on the cheek before standing up. “Alright, now go out there and show them what you’re made of!”

At your words, a determined glint shines in his eyes.

“You bet.”

True to his word, the second act goes off without a hitch, the entire cast’s morale boosting from the energy their leader radiated.

Following the dress rehearsal, the play consistently gets stellar reviews up until closing night. On closing night, you wait for Tsumugi at a café, waving to him when he walks in. Once he settles down into his seat next to you, he gives you a chaste kiss on the mouth.

“Hey, flower.” He murmurs as he pulls away.

“Look at what I got!” you say excitedly, pulling out a moleskin journal of your own from your bag. Tsumugi’s eyes widen and he breaks out into a smile. “I was hoping you could help me out?”

Tsumugi immediately pulls out his own journal, along with several art materials, from his own bag, and the two of you get to work on planning your futures together.

APH College AU Headcanons: Japan

JAPAN/KIKU HONDA

- Double majoring in STEM (idk, engineering/robotics maybe?) and digital animation/game animation (inspired by hetahonda’s hcs). - He couldn’t really decide between having a “useful” major (STEM) that’s pragmatic and doing something he’s done as a hobby for years (digital animation) but might not be a great way of supporting himself later, so just went with both. Anyway, he’s pretty good at managing the workload most times, so it’s not that stressful/taxing.

- Like Germany, he’s rather Organized (but a little more chaotic and Done with Life) - All his assignments are written on this massive calendar that takes up most of the wall, would like to have his whole year planned out but his professors don’t tell him their assignments that much in advance - Green tea once a day in the afternoon; before school started, he bought a bunch of large bags of loose leaf tea so he just needs some boiled water to make it. Therefore, he also brought a plug in kettle that is a permanent fixture in his room now. - Usually* finishes all assignments in a timely manner, and also usually** tries to help anyone in need of assistance (aka Will Pull an All Nighter With You to help you finish that paper by 7 AM if you ask nicely, are a casual friend, and aren’t overly annoying/someone he likes to tease a lot). - *However, sometimes he just can’t be bothered to do his work (sporadic but extreme laziness) and procrastinates. On these occasions, he just waits till a couple hours before something’s due and then it’s crunch time; but even if it’s sloppily put together he usually gets good marks.

- **And also, sometimes he just wants to watch anime and do nothing and isn’t in the mood™ for being Generous™ and helping people get work done, and he just hides out in his room, wrapped in blankets like a burrito, with a “do not disturb” sign on the door. - Sleep schedule is either really chaotic (energy drinks and 4 AM nights) or really Extra/Healthy (bed by 9:30 PM, watches anime for another hour and then turns in for the night). However he can get by pretty well with ~4 hours of sleep, and doesn’t really drink coffee; tea is preferable. - Sometimes relies on ramen + boiling water (from that kettle), sometimes goes to China’s restaurant to eat (I have this whole AU planned out and yes, China is the chef of a small restaurant). If he can be bothered (maybe 15% of the time?) to eat good food, he’ll go to China’s. - Was sad he couldn’t bring his cat (and his dog) to school, but visits them on weekends because he left them with China - Tried to help Greece (Heracles) bring his cats to school because he felt bad about leaving his own behind. Keyword tried, because it wasn’t successful - Respected because of how he can get away with certain things*** and how he can keep up his grades although he’s double majoring and considering his sometimes chaotic schedule, but most people would still consider him approachable. In contrast, Ludwig is more revered but distant to the average student, while Kiku is on a more even level with people. Maybe it’s due to his more typical work schedule and eating habits (re: ramen and 4 AM nights) or just because he seems more college student-esque. - ***Getting away with things: aka sneaking somewhat inappropriate subjects into essays and going off-topic in discussions, but being so conversational (I think he’s really good at pretending to be casual and nice when he might actually be feeling cranky) that the teacher doesn’t always notice. - He’s still a bit awkward though, and prefers to be alone. I think he’s an ambivert who can adapt okay to the situation, but who has more introverted tendencies. - However, I also think he tends to thrive more around shy people because he can relate to them a whole ton, and definitely doesn’t mind if a friend isn’t really talkative. - He’s just really good at pleasing people with the conversation they like. - Good at judging people by first impressions, and picks up little things about them and their habits. - His notes are pretty neat, but sometimes hard to read because his handwriting gets a bit messy when fast, and he writes shorthand a lot, making up acronyms that stand for things only he knows. They contain a lot of doodles (they’re more like designs and building studies than doodles, unlike Feli’s) and ideas for projects and things he might do if he has the time (or if it fits an assignment). - Friday night TV with Alfred; horror shows or anime, but never romantic sap or anything. Alfred talks all throughout the show though, to Kiku’s half-annoyance. - Grades around the A- to A range, his grades are pretty consistent and stable. He takes test studying actually really seriously, so it often makes up for homework that wasn’t the best. - He’s got an idea for a pointless simulation game where you try to avoid all the hardships of college, and it’s based on his daily life. He hasn’t actually made it, but every time something dumb happens to him he mentally adds it to the list of things that the game characters are going to have to face. - He made another pointless game in high school where you try to get to school on time. He got driven by Yao a lot, who wasn’t the most punctual, and it usually resulted in them getting out the door with almost no time to spare. Their route was always cluttered with random wildlife, down trees, road maintenance, garbage trucks, slow cars, and traffic, and he had to run to his first class sometimes to not be late. All that was converted into a game, where players just have to pick their route and hope for the best. - A bit of a resident anime nerd. In the art club and robotics club (the latter is only because it’s recommended to join if you’re majoring in the area). Sometimes, he makes posters for events and things happening around college.

Ok that’s it, please feel free to add on/react/whatever! Thanks for reading!

Tell Me (also on ao3)

Something was wrong.

Reg peeked over his Switch to look at his partner in crime.

Sure they’d only been working together for a handful of months but Reg already considered them friends, and he was worried.

Rufus was never this quiet after a successful con. 

Heck, he’d been a little off the entire day.

Reg had seen him staring a few times when they'd been selling ‘healing crystals’ and ‘fortune readings’ to the residents from one of the farther towns, even dropping some of the products after noticing he’d been caught.

Another weird mishap had happened in the next town during Rufus’ magic show, when the fox’s chosen volunteer had been too close to where Reg was making his pick pocketing rounds in the crowd.

Maybe he was sick?

Usually Rufus would recount his favorite parts throughout the rest of the evening, with the raccoon chiming in every now and then about someone’s baffled expression or a highlight of their plan he’d enjoyed acting out.

But no, the fox was just sitting there, one leg crossed over his knee while the other jiggled rhythmically as he thought hard about... whatever he was thinking about.

Honestly it was starting to freak him out.

“Reg.“

“Huh?“

Reg blinked, realizing that he’d been caught staring at his friend for a good 10 minutes. Rufus chuckled softly before standing up and extending his hand.

“Care to join me outside for a bit?“

Reg quickly saved his game, using the offered hand to get off his chair. He noticed Rufus hadn't let go as they made their way outside, only separating to sit on a nearby log. The night was warm, a half moon showing through the trees as fireflies darted through the air.

‘This is nice.‘ he thought, swishing his tail and watching as a firefly landed on the tip of Rufus’ ear. Reg snickered, the taller of the two glancing back at him questioningly, sunset eyes crinkling at the edges and a wry smile on his face. 

Reg’s breath caught, eyes widening a little. Oh.

Oh.

Reg looked down, cheeks warm. ‘Just because you both like guys doesn't mean he’s interested.’ 

They’re hands were really close though. If one of them moved a bit closer their pinkies would touch. Reg really wanted to hold hands again. Friends did that right? Hand holding? Maybe if he just...

“Reg-“

“Yes!“ the raccoon jumped, startled.

Rufus raised a brow at him, face sliding to neutral as he went to stare ahead.

“Would you mind if I asked you something?“

He tilted his head, oblivious. “You already did?”

Rufus snickered into his fist, “I suppose so.”

He shook his head, shuffling in his seat and turning his body towards Reg, “Another one then.” His eyes darted off to the side. 

“Reg, I know we’ve only recently become more permanent partners in crime. But I was wondering if, maybe, you would like to try being a different kind of partner?”

Long ears nervously flicked back as the fox bit his lip and waited for a reply, eyes still focused on fidgety fingers.

“Yes.“

Reg smiled wide as he watched the other’s head snap up, eyes comically wide and struggling to say something.

“Wuh- really???“

“Yeah, of course!” he laughed, moving to give his new boyfriend a hug. “Why wouldn’t I want to date you, Rufus?“

The fox’s tail bushed out in embarrassment, wagging happily from side to side as its owner blushed and returned the hug.

Reg felt the other square his shoulders.

“I- I’m also asexual, Reggie.” he gulped, squeezing Reg tighter. “I do hope that won’t be a problem...”

He’d always hated whenever one of his exes dismissed his sexuality, claiming that it didn’t exist. ‘But we’ve had sex before!’ they would say. Idiots, just because he was sex-positive didn’t mean he still wasn’t asexual.

Rufus was jolted from his thoughts by Reg wiggling his face from under his chin to grin at him. "That’s fine! I’m actually ace too!”

Rufus stared for a moment, eyes shining. “... Would you mind if I kissed you?“

Reg laughed and they both leaned in, breaking away to hold hands shortly after. Both content with just enjoying the moment and watching the fireflies a little longer.

HEADCANONS FOR DANIEL DREIBERG DO IT

  character headcanon meme!!

   oh danny... my sweet birdy boy. i’m excited to talk about him!

2-4 songs that are probably on their ipod: the first time i ever saw your face by roberta flack, unchained melody by the righteous brothers, you’re my thrill by billie holiday and for you my love by nellie lutcher. the man loves jazz and soul, especially from the 30s and 40s.

the one place they sometimes end up falling asleep — where they’re not supposed to: usually at the desk in his bedroom after he’s pulled an all-nighter, or at his workbench downstairs. you’re more likely to find him crashing at the latter if he’s still working as nite owl.

the game they’d destroy everyone else at: any sort of flight simulator for obvious reasons. this man can pilot nearly anything.

the emoticon they’d use most often: dan’s an older guy and fairly easy to please most of the time, so i’d feel like he’d stick to the basics. a smiley face if he’s happy, a sad face if he’s reacting to some unfortunate news, an angry face if he’s reacting to something that displeased him and a heart if he’s trying to convey affection. and of course, he wouldn’t be able to resist using bird and owl emojis on his social media profiles.

what they act like when they haven’t had enough sleep: visibly groggy and distant, usually. he tends to get quieter and retreats further into his own head. if he’s under a lot of pressure, he might snap at you, though he’d feel bad about it immediately and would try to explain himself.

their preferred hot beverage on really cold nights. or mornings. or whenever: he loves tea at night! green is his preference, with milk and honey. in the morning he’ll usually drink his coffee straight black to wake himself up, even if it doesn’t taste very good.

how they like to comfort/care for themselves when they’re in a slump: dan’s definition of self-care is turning to things that bring him a lot of comfort or remind him of better times. usually it’s his weathered copy of the sword and the stone (his favourite book growing up), a tube of raw cookie dough, putting one of his favourite records on or taking a few days to lie down under the covers (which... can get dangerous for him if he’s not careful because dan’s reclusive tendencies can lead to periods of full-blown self-isolation). when he was nite owl, he found a lot of solace in rorschach’s company; ror didn’t talk too much, and it was nice for dan to be around someone who wasn’t constantly demanding answers or entertainment from him. he could just... share his space with him and simply be. dan doesn’t have a lot of people in his life he can really do that with, and he cherishes that. he misses him.

what they wanted to be when they grew up: dan went through a series of phases where he wanted different careers. at one point he wanted to be an author, then a doctor, then a ornithologist, then a mechanical engineer, then a musician, then a newspaper editor, before settling on training to become the original nite owl’s successor at the age of 16. ironically enough, dan did end up dabbling in every one of his aforementioned interests throughout his adult life and never settled on one specific job. he likes the variety and is very grateful that his financial situation allows him all that freedom.

their favourite kind of weather: clear blue skies. sunny, but not so sunny that he’s sweating buckets. he isn’t particularly fond of rainy days because they depress him, and the cold makes him miserable.

thoughts on their singing voice (decent? terrible? soprano? alto?): if we’re going off his actor patrick wilson’s actual singing voice, dan is INCREDIBLY talented and has a lot of range. he’s a tenor! if you haven’t heard him sing before, i strongly suggest you check him out because... wow. wow. like patrick, i like to think he was trained professionally and that he’ll still sing when he’s alone, even if he’s kind of out of practice these days.

how/what they like to draw or doodle: birds. big shocker. he’s gotten pretty good at it, too!

I got pure carried away sorry.(ok so i made some names up for people so, your best friend is: Beth and Beths older brother is: Dante) i havent proof read sorry :(

spazclaiire said: hii could i request headcanons or a fix of excuses five has used to hold your hand or ‘four times five had an excuse to hold your hand and the one time he went for it’ please? thank youu

words:3350

Books weighed down your arms as they spilled over the threshold of your carrying limits, they were heavy, a mix of ring binders and oversized textbooks were making you sway like a drunk man. People barging past in steady streams didn’t help your balancing act either, stumbling every few seconds hoping that the library got closer quicker. 

Swinging open the door to the library your eyes scan the room for the table you and your friends usually sit at and by ‘usually’ you actually mean every single break you get, whether its just for 5 minuets or the full hour you get for lunch or free periods. The table in question even had all your names written on the underside along with other random scribblings and doodles. You make eye contact with a few people on your table as you get closer.

“Y/n, I’ve got some tea to spill, and it involves you!” Beth excitably suggests. Beth always had some new tea to spill, she was a see all hear all person, it also helped that her older brother was in the year above and in the group of the schools self proclaimed ‘bad boys’. She always knows what they’re planning, the who, what, why and where, she had it down to a T.

Speaking of ‘T’, any tea involving you wasn’t good, there had been drama circulating about you before and it took long enough for that to die down. You sigh, hoping it’s got nothing to do with the group of ‘bad boys’. “Go on then, spill.”

“Five Hargreeves has his eyes on you.” Of course, Five was the year above and one of the smartest students in the entire school. The only reason he even knew who you were is because his best friend is Beth’s brother and you were in his AP physics. He was also classed as the fittest boy in school with the worst reputation yet the cleanest slate. 

“For god’s sake, why?” The last thing you wanted was for Five to actually care about who you were, he was a heart breaker, something that you just didn’t need.

“I’m not too sure, I haven’t heard much about the plan, but there is a plan so just be cautious. He’s probably after you because you’re fit.” You smile at her words. “Are you in the art building for lunch again?” You just nod in response.

You had been spending an increasing amount of time in the art buildings, it was just a soft and aesthetically pleasing environment to be in and it meant you’d actually get your work done. You could sit and draw for hours but with how hectic life was the art buildings was a safe getaway. So at lunchtime that’s where you found yourself, aimlessly painting the view out of the window, fields and trees and streams filled the canvas. You were in your own world, minding your own business. 

“Your painting is really pretty, but not as pretty as you.” There it was, not only half a day after being warned about Five Hargreeves he was already trying to chat you up. He was leant against a wall behind you, scanning your figure and the painting. “And I was here thinking you were just a brain and a pretty face.” It was a pitiful, low effort attempt and a half-arsed compliment.

“What do you want, Hargreeves?” It may of sounded harsh but you didn’t want to deal with his bad attempts at flirting.

“Harsh much,” He jokingly placed a hand over his heart. “Listen I need a favour, all you have to do is walk out of this building holding my hand and pretend to date me for about 2 days maybe.” A shockingly fake smile spread across his face as he held his hand out.

“So let me guess,” You tapped your finger on your chin, mockingly thinking. “I’ll pretend to date you, you’ll win some sort of bet and then the best part is when you tell everyone we shagged then you dumped me right after!” You returned his bittersweet fake smile. “I’m going to have to pass Hargreeves, I’d rather not be apart of one of your silly little games.” 

With a tut, he turned around to leave the block not before having the last word. “You’ll fall in love with me eventually y/n, they always do.” You could help but to scoff as he walked out of the room, he was too cocky, all the years he always had any girl he ever wanted to drop at his feet but not you.

Time ticked away slowly until it came to AP Physics, it was a brutal way to end the day often ending with being completely worn out. You were concentrating on rearranging the equations that needed to be used, it was going well until a piece of scrunched paper landed where you were writing. You simply brush it to the side and continue with your work, you had a faint idea who it was from seen as Five sat on the opposite side of your table of 4, ideal, you know.

“y/n.”  His foot playfully tapped yours, causing you to roll your eyes. “Open it.” 

So you did, only to be met with the more than classy words ‘my offer still stands ;)’ You couldn’t believe it, looking him in the eyes you pretended to ponder his decision, swiftly followed by tearing the note up and sliding it back over to him. Fives mouth hung open, you smugly go back to what you were working on. 

Five was relatively quite for the rest of the class, resulting in it going much quicker than it normally would. He would sometimes answer questions but other than that there was no more chew from Five. In a blink of an eye it was time to go home to rest and recuperate from a long day of lessons, to prepare for the exact same the next day, the same as you do every day.

Five paced around his room, he hadn’t lost a bet yet and he wasn’t going to start losing them now. It was a simple bet, make y/n fall for him. Five didn’t particularly want to follow through with this bet, it wasn’t fair on y/n seen as she hadn’t done anything wrong to Five. Dante had only made Five do the bet as he knew Five used to have a slight thing for y/n, it was almost comedically convenient that Dante’s younger sister was best friends with y/n, Dante couldn’t help himself whenever y/n was around his house with Beth to make a comment about it. But despite all this, he couldn’t lose the bet.

The next day, Five had a plan, he knew that in AP Physics the teacher was about to set a new project to be completed in pairs, so naturally he went straight to the teacher. “Sir, for that paired project I really think I should work with y/n, we’d work so well together.” He practically begged his teacher.

“I’ll think about it Five, but if I do place you together, please make an effort to improve your behaviour. It’s your last year and you have such great potential, don’t waste it.” The spiel was met by a roll of Fives eyes followed by a muttered ‘sure’. Five regularly got this talk all the time, everyone says that he needs to focus his academic knowledge into something, anything, but he’s just not motivated by anything. Everything had either been invented or is being invented so there was just no point in trying.

The weekend drew closer with every ticking minuet, teasing you with every small movement of the hands, counting down like a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. You were sat in your last lesson, AP Physics, took your seat and took out your supplies. You lazily observed as the rest of your class walked in, you gave and received a few smiles to and from various classmates until last person the last person in, Five Hargreeves, he waltzed into the room with confidence oozing from him. 

Before Five had a chance to speak the teacher was already up and writing the title on the board ‘electromagnetism’. As soon as the words appeared on the board a collective groan of despair was heard throughout the room. 

“So,” The teacher started, clearly enjoying the sudden drop in mood. “I know how much you all love electromagnetism, so what were going to do is work in pairs to create a powerpoint and a poster covering all the aspects of electromagnetism!” The room livened up a bit at the prospect of working with a friend, that was until the teacher continued. “I have put you in pairs, so listen in as I call the pairs out and then move next to your new physics partner.”

People moved about the room to sit next to their project partner, you listened closely to hear who you’d be partnered with this time. “Y/n?” “Sir.” “You’re with Five Hargreeves.” You see Fives face light up as he slides his books across the desk the the seat next to yours, the smug grin never leaving his face once. 

You begin to write down what you had to do for the presentation, feeling Fives eyes stare into the side of your head. “So over the weekend can you do as much research on magnetic flux, flux density and field strength and I’ll cover BH curves and permeability, does that sound good?”  

“Why don’t we just meet up over the weekend and make a start together?” He nudged your elbow, your pen run up your page, ruining the word you were writing.

“Can’t. I’m working all weekend.” Which was met with a small ‘o’ from Five, he turns way and messily scribbles on a sheet of paper and then slides it back over to you. 

“Well if you can’t meet up this weekend then at least have my number.” You slightly smile and fold the piece of paper up and slip it into your notebook. Before Five could slip in another word the bell rang, signalling the end of the day. You say your goodbyes and begin the walk home, it was a fairly long walk home maybe reaching around 30 minuets but it was always a pretty sight to walk through the woods during the spring, pink petals from the cherry blossoms littered the ground, colouring the dull world waking up from winter.

Once home you stared at the crumpled paper with Fives number on it, also noticing the smaller scribbled snapchat username. It felt like a smarter decision just to add him on snap for now but save his number in your contacts, just in case. As soon as you added him he accepted within a matter of seconds, followed by a picture message ‘hey x’ it read. You simply send a picture back of your blank wall and place your phone down, you let a small laugh as your phone buzzes again. 

Sitting at your desk, you pulled out your books and your laptop to make a start on the physics work. You just couldn’t help but check what Five had responded, clicking his name you were met with his face in a pout. You respond with a picture of you sticking your tongue out, which got a response quickly. This stream of photos carried on until the early hours of the morning not even realising the time and that in a mere 6 hours you had to go to work, you send ‘night’ to Five and place your phone on the side, a small smile on your face as you drifted to sleep.

Five laid awake, considering calling the bet off all together. Hours of talking to y/n only felt like minuets, Five wanted to get to know y/n on his own terms not on the terms of a bet. He shouldn’t of accepted the bet to begin with, his competitiveness got the best of him. 

The weekend went far to quickly for your liking, mixed with work and school work. Five was also non-stop messaging you throughout the weekend, he found a way to talk to you about everything and anything, often sending long video messages of him walking round his giant house, you could always hear the shouts of his siblings in the background.

Monday nights were the one night of the week that you enjoyed, Monday was movie night at Beth’s house. The night usually went that straight after school you’d take over the living room, bringing out the blankets and extra pillows, you would both then decide what films to watch and what food to get. Once that was all done you’d both bunker down and start the movies, getting ready for a long night.

About halfway through the first movie Five and Dante slowly made their way into the main room, stealing some of your pizza before sitting down on the sofa to join you. Five took a seat next to you while Dante sat on an armchair, Five pulled your blanket so it was covering both of you, leaning back into the sofa you could feel physically how close he was to you and it was driving you mad.

Beth caught your eyes and wiggled her eyebrows, you responded by sending a cheeky wink with a joking smile. As the night moved on and the movies continued, you and Five slowly moved closer throughout the movie marathon, it couldn’t of been helped, you were both like two magnets. 

The final scene in The Breakfast Club was playing, both Beth and Dante had already fallen asleep, you felt Fives hand touch the side of yours. You slightly push your hand back against his, welcoming the warmth as his touch, your reaction invited him to link his fingers with yours. Light from the TV bounced off the features of his face, defining his angled lines of his face, you couldn’t deny that he was handsome, very handsome. 

The screen of the TV turned dark as you used the remote to switch it off, a dim glow of the moon shone through the open windows, the moment was romantic, overly romantic but it was the sleepiness making you ignore the voice that was screaming that he didn’t mean it, he had an end game and you couldn’t forget that. 

You pulled your hand from Five and lean over to Beth and lightly shake her shoulders. “Beth, its 20 past 1, I think it’s time to go to bed.” She responds by making some unclear noises and began to sit up, you smile and stand up pulling her with you. You spare a glance back at Five before continuing upstairs, unable to stop the tingling feeling in your hand.

Eventually, you had to meet up with Five to work on the physics project, you both hadn’t spoken since Monday night. Well not exactly, Five had been messaging you a lot but you just hadn’t been responding because all you could think about was if he had a possible end game. You didn’t want to get played by Five.

You heard soft steps getting closer, you look up to meet Fives eyes. “Hey.” He spoke in a soft voice in the quiet library. He pulled a chair out from besides you and sat down, pulling his textbooks out of his bag. You both made small talk during your work, it was a nice atmosphere in the library, a nice atmosphere between you and Five with no looming pressure after what happened Monday night.

A breeze drifted through the large room, causing you to break out in goosebumps and shiver. You decided that morning that you could just wear a T-shirt with no jacket as the sun was out, how wrong you were when dark clouds swarmed over. 

“Do you want to borrow my hoodie?” Five asked, but he was already taking it off to give to you.

“Oh no Five it’s okay, it’s my own fault I forgot my jacket. Anyways what would you wear?” Despite how cold you were you really didn’t want to borrow Fives hoodie, he would be just as cold as you were.

“No please y/n, take it. I’ve got an extra jacket in my locker anyways.” He pushed his hoodie into your hands. You could tell he was probably lying about it but you sheepishly took his hoodie and put it on, it was warm and you couldn’t help but smile a little bit. 

You mutter your thanks, a warm flush coming over your face as you continue to work on your project until your next lesson. Once the bell rang, you both left to opposite directions, you completely forgot that you had Fives hoodie on until you sat next to Beth in english to be passed a scrap piece of paper with scribbled writing ‘That’s not your hoodie???’ you smile at the sheet and just write back ‘Five’s’ 

You didn’t see Five for the rest of the day until you got a message during the last lesson. ‘meet me near math class at the end of the day x’ It wasn’t a question, he was telling you. You send an ‘ok’ and continue with your lesson, constantly distracted by the ticking arms of the clock, counting down it’s last minuets.

As the clock strikes 3 you make your way to the math department, you were fighting against the tide as everyone rushed to get out of school. As the crowed begun to thin you saw Five standing outside the maths classroom, standing hoodie-less. He made his way towards you, smile present on his face.

“Where’s this jacket that was meant to be in your locker?” He just laughs and shrugs his shoulders.

“I mean my hoodie looks better on you than it did on me so I don’t mind.” You smile at him and begin your decent through the school. “So I was thinking we could just like, go for a walk? It’s just nice spending time with you.”

You both aimlessly wandered around town until finding a small cafe to reside in when the weather started to turn, Five had a black coffee and you had a hot chocolate. The room was filled with noise from others in the cafe and also from the outside world that couldn’t reach you in your own little world.

“Five, not to sound daft or anything but are you still trying to do this for the bet or are you being genuine?” You didn’t want to sound harsh but you were still unsure if this was genuine or just an oscar winning act.

“y/n,” He reached over and took your hand. “I called the bet off just before Monday night, as soon as I came to the school and saw you I knew straight away I wanted to be with you.” He ran his thumb gently over your knuckles. “I know you wont trust me right away but I want to make you trust me, I want you to feel the same way about me as I do for you.”

“Okay.”

All it took was that one word to kickstart your time with Five. It started small, handholding any chance he got, he seemed to always need to be close, holding and hugging you. He was so affectionate and almost touched starved, begging like a stray puppy. Five slowly gained your trust and love for him, he had an infinite amount of hoodies and oversized T-shirts, truth be told you were pretty sure Five just loved to see you in his clothes.

You and Five were cuddled up on your bed, he was running his fingers through your hair as light cut through the curtains, lighting the room in a heavenly glow. Five placed a kiss on the side on your head, pulling you closer as he did. 

“Y/n, I think I’m in love with you.” You smile and lean into his embrace.

“I think I’m in love with you too, Five.”

davenzi headcanons + david starting uni

-matteo takes a year off from school, still deciding what he wanted to do with his life, but david goes straight from highschool into uni, knowing that he wanted to do art and film and anything that let his creativity out from under his fingertips where it felt like it was vibrating underneath his hands. he takes the basic classes that everyone has to, and he does okay in them. but he gets a quick reputation in all of his art classes that he’s one to watch out for. 

-david, having gotten over his urge to stay tucked tightly inside his shell during highschool thanks to the constant itching under his ribs caused by a certain boy, becomes involved in a variety of activities at university, and once he becomes involved in them, he becomes involved. he joins a football team and becomes the starring forward. he joins a theater group and somehow manages to director the end of the year production of Waiting for Godot. he starts a group that meets up once a month to talk about their favorite artists while working on some of their own work. it gets so popular that they have to make a waiting list after one of the professor’s pointed out they reach max occupancy like three weeks ago at that point. 

-matteo asks david to move in after they graduate, and david quickly agrees. he says it’s because matteo’s place is a couple blocks closer to school and tries to rein in his thoughts of of course i would shining boy i never want to be away from you just thinking about leaving you for even a minute makes my heart break into giant shards and only you have the right glue to put them back together because saying that feels a little too revealing for 3 in the afternoon in a random coffee shop that they stopped in. matteo didn’t even plan to ask him. he was the one who couldn’t rein in his thoughts that day and blurted out please move in with me, only stopping short of admitting that he counts the minutes until david comes back and thinks about how much of that time they could have spent memorizing each other’s souls. he then quickly tried to cover his quick thoughts up with a diversion about how with mia leaving they need someone else to help with the rent. david shuts him up with a kiss. matteo doesn’t say anything about how their places are actually equal distance from the school, and they both go home smiling so big their checks feel like they’re going to split.

-the first couple of weeks, with david’s quick ability to fit in with whichever room he walks into, matteo admits that it was a little lonely. he thought having his boyfriend share his closet and his fridge and his bed and his life in such close quarters that they would see each other so often that they might get sick of each other. it was never a serious concern for matteo because every time david is around, matteo feels like he can never get enough. david has always been his worst drug. he doesn’t tell david any of this at all though because he’s worried that he might seem too clingy or too needy and that david will think it’s not worth the trouble. hans is the one to ultimately gets it out of him, and hans is the one to try and get matteo to talk about it with david. he doesn’t which irritates hans to no end. but then hans tells him that maybe he should get some hobbies of his own if he was just going to grumble around the whole apartment about how david wasn’t home yet. hans had eyes. he knew that david wasn’t back. 

-matteo starts to accept his co-workers’ at the deli invites to hang out outside of work, and he starts to find that they’re actually kind of cool. he becomes quick friends with a girl named sofia who has the same sense of humor when it comes to memes. they send them back and forth outside of work. he’ll show them to david when david is around, and usually david will snort about it but then remind himself to ask jonas later what the references mean. matteo also joins a board game group, he doesn’t like to say the word club, at this game shop a few blocks away. he’s actually quite good at chess he realizes because no one can ever get a read on him and his strategy. the key is to have no strategy. but he also likes to play clue and risk. he feels a little less lonely while all his friends and david seem to be taking the next step in life while he’s just working to scrap by and pay his bills. 

-the two of them get into an easy flow with each other and their schedules after a month or two. david is easy to get swallowed into his studies and his projects and all the pots he tries to watch boil at once, but he promises himself to not let it go too far after he snapped at matteo when he tried to tell david he should go to bed. he had immediately tried to take it back and apologize to the boy he knew was quick to retreat and hide when people got too loud around him, but at that point, matteo’s eyes had already gone glassy and he just said whatever and went to be by himself, refusing to let david touch him the entire night even though they knew that would make them both feel better. he grovelled a little bit the next morning by cooking matteo breakfast and leaving a post-it with a doodle of david apologizing and holding flowers on matteo’s phone. he did actually get flowers that night, and matteo said it was overkill but he smiled and brought them close to his face when he thought david wasn’t looking. after that when matteo suggested david take a break or give it a rest for the night, david would listen.  

-david has a reputation around the school as being cool and suave and slightly mysterious but mostly just on a whole other plane than the rest of us with the way his mind works. his presence is magnetic, and people are always trying to get close to him to pick his brain about this or that. david gets invited to just about every event in every social circle. he’s got an in with the jocks because of football. he’s practically the leader of the theater circle, and he gets an invitation to every gallery or show opening in all of berlin it feels like. he could pencil something in for every night of the week if he really wanted to. he could even double book himself some nights, but david only really goes to like a fourth of the things that people mention because that’s about as much as matteo can handle. 

-matteo tries to go to all the football games, all the plays, all the art shows, but matteo was always a slower pace of a person. and that much activity wears him out pretty quickly. david tries to tell him that it’s okay. he doesn’t have to go to everything. david knows that he’s there in spirit and is always supporting him. matteo holds his tongue about how in spirit isn’t good enough and remembering empty stands throughout his whole childhood to the point where he wouldn’t even mention things anymore to anyone and how he never wants david to feel like that. 

-they’re pretty comfortable with going to separate parties after a while. matteo will go hang with ok.cool. or the gang at a smaller friend thing, and david will go make an appearance at one of his social events. matteo knows that david gets a lot of attention, and he really doesn't blame people that look too long in david’s direction because like he has eyes, too. he knows david is drop dead gorgeous. david just kisses his head and tells him not to worry because everyone knows that david is very off the market. and david is always quick to let people know if they ask, which most people don’t anyways because everyone can recognize what art looks like when it’s made by someone who is totally and completely madly in love. matteo is one of david’s favorite subjects after all. 

-there was this one girl who didn’t seem to know when to take a hint though. she didn’t seem to recognize that all of david’s best art pieces happened to have the same muse achingly present in the forefront with sweeps of messy hair drawn quickly in graphite and with freckles on shoulder blades perfected in painstaking detail with water color. she didn’t seem to get it when david told his actors what love should look like on stage with a deep longing that only someone who has known a true and pure affection could know. she didn’t even get it when david had politely brushed off her offer to go out together to see a new film by saying that he already had a date. it finally sunk in when she saw david at a house party half way through the spring. he was off in the corner with some guy she had never seen before. the guy was casually leaning against the wall with a goofy smile on his face, and david was leaning over him, his elbow up near the guy’s face, bracketing him into the corner, and david’s other hand on his hip. they were whispering to each other with an ease that only a couple with a resolved history and decided future would. it didn’t seem like they even knew they were at a party. they were completely ignoring everything that was happening around them. she backed off after that. the couple making out in the corner for at least an hour during the party didn’t help either.
