[ headcanon time! ] Which of your muses are the most likely (or already do) dye their hair? Are any of them the sort to dye their hair on a whim/just for fun? Would any of them do it because of some kind of insecurity about themselves?

OH, FUN! Let's see (under the cut, cause it's gotten a lil long):

absolutely do, regularly

Mitsuki Kiryu!

the whole thing's bleached & dyed light pink, both hair and eyebrows - natural being brown. he doesn't hate his natural color particularly, but it's a statement of sorts.

Hanma Shuji!

naturally black, but there's always some amount of bleached yellow thrown in there, gives him that good ol' deliquent look and matches his eyes.

would on a whim

Ieiri Shoko

especially in her younger years but later on too. it'd mostly be temporary dye in some wild color during summer or with a party in mind

Viktor Nikiforov

before he became his own brand, he'd change colours to match whatever his coach said the performance required, later on he'd mostly do some pastel colors just for his own enjoyment

would, for work

Loid Forger

he'd prefer a whole wig if passible but as that's not always feasible he had sported different hair colours for the mission

Hatake Kakashi

his hair and mask/eye situation is a dead giveaway of his identity so whenever tasked with a sensitive mission, you'll catch him changing hair colour

would, because of insecurity

Nakajima Atsushi

mostly just failed attempts to make his white hair darker to blend in, but it only made the bullying worse and usually turned out not how he planned (aimed for brown ended with green, and all that jazz)

Sohma Shigure

hasn't yet, but most likely to go for it as soon as he starts actually going gray

@vulpesly gets a ghost boy

Ah... he had waited too long again, hunger ebbing at him- gnawing at his sanity. Morals and wishes could only let him hold out till his body was once again on the brink of falling apart. No matter how much Mitsuba wishes otherwise- the fear of falling apart outrides the disgust of having to consume creatures just like himself. It doesn't take long to find a wandering ghost or supernatural. Defeat and Devoure till hunger dies down enough for guilt to tear him apart instead.

When the boy stands up, he freezes at the sight of a shadow... someone had seen him... they had to have if they were looking this way. Otherwise there would be nothing to look at but an empty hallway.

A step back, fear now consuming the supernatural. "I-it's not what it looks like- I swear-!" A trembling voice as Mistuba backs up a little bit more. A mirror- or a window... he just needed to escape!

@vulpesly asked: ( snack ) : sender brings receiver their favorite food to cheer them up [ jono to niimi. yes, he caught a grasshopper, and yes, this is the worst day of his life ]

Niimi always feels sullen around this time of year, fingers toying with the spider lilies he had gathered. He knew their meaning, to humans at least, but to himself, they reminded him of playing by the river with his mother as a child.

A glance up as he notices the grasshopper, giving a giggle as he grabs it to take a bite. "Mother didn't like when I ate bugs either." A smile as he holds out the flower to Jono, as if to trade. "Here! My mother and I would pick them, since the river back home was filled with them. If you squinted~ It looked like the river was on fire with how many spider lilies grew there~!"

Crunchy grasshopper.

“  this was probably a mistake.  ” [ jono and maurice? ]

MORNING AFTER STARTERS

Maurice is dozing off contentedly, pretending to be in a deeper sleep than he actually is so he can enjoy a little more time basking in Jono's warmth before they have to part for their respective jobs, more satisfied and happy than he's been in years...

...then Jono utters those five little words and it's like an icy cold shower, blue eyes snapping open and staring at the Hunting Dogs in wide-eyed astonishment.

A mistake? A mistake?!

Those same eyes then narrow into thin slits as the ex-thief all but pounces on his bedmate, their bodies rolling for a moment before they end up with Jono on his back with Maurice straddling him and pinning his hands to the mattress, effectively trapping the other there.

He's fully aware that the Hunting Dog could easily shrug him off, he's certainly strong enough to do so, but Maurice won't let something like that stop him now. This could be the only chance he has left.

"No, this was not a mistake. Don't you dare try to run away!" Maurice hisses, blue eyes set in an icy glare that Jono is sure to feel despite being unable to see it.

His expression soften after a moment, as does his grip on Jono's wrist, although he doesn't let go completely, merely moving his hands so his fingers are intertwined with Jono's, still pinning his hands above his head "When will you stop punishing yourself? I forgave you a long time ago..."

He lets go of one hand to cup Jono's cheek, stroking the soft, flushed skin right underneath his eye "If you've... really decided you're no longer interested, then alright, I understand... but if you're only denying yourself because of some twisted form of penance, or because you're afraid of hurting me again... then don't do it anymore."

He leans in then, brushing his lips against Jono's in the softest kiss they've exchanged so far "Give me - us - another chance... please."

If Chuuya was engaged in a friendly competition (board game, video game, etc) with someone he gets along with, does he go all out trying to win or does he pull his punches at all? Does this change at all depending on the person, type of relationship, or other factors?

It kind of depends but Chuuya likes to go all-in most of the time. He'll go easy on some people of course (the younger members of the Sheep, for instance, when he used to run with them) because he doesn't want to be an asshole.

Its important of course to note not so much whether Chuuya will go all-out to win, but whether or not he'll cheat to win (he absolutely will, if he feels like it).

Chuuya is very tit-for-tat. Do unto others as they do unto you, for the most part. That's something he picked up with the Sheep, so much so that its just second nature for him now. If the other person is playing fair and straight, he'll generally keep his game clean also (maybe with a tiny bit of bending what counts as "cheating"; it depends what's at stake really and what kind of bets are on the table. If he really hates the losing conditions, he'll absolutely try to swing it).

If he's playing against someone that he generally knows is a cheater and/or that he doesn't like so much (coughDazaicough) , he will absolutely pull out all the stops and shamelessly cheat his way to victory. He picked up a ton of tricks on how to cheat really well too after becoming friends with the Flags (most of his motivation was to out-cheat Dazai, obviously).

He'll barely even be bothered to hide it, honestly, especially if said "competition" involves physical prowess (and therefore, something he can use Gravity with).

Chuuya, frankly, doesn't like losing. He barely knows the meaning of the word. That said, if he genuinely loses on equal terms, he'll still honor his loss even if he loathes it (see: the Dog Bet). He has a certain sense of honor about being trustworthy enough to keep his word to people even if he is also willing to cheat to win (he's a mafioso though, can you really expect anything else?).

@vulpesly

does your muse enjoy giving gifts?

verlaine does indeed giving gifts. he makes a lot of the gifts that he gives too. being proficient in woodworking as well as it just being a general thing he enjoys doing, he'll either carve something that he knows the recipient can use. it's usually always practical, and something that he knows will be used instead of sitting on a shelf and wasting away.

he will, however, pay attention to something someone seems to enjoy and make a mental note to treat them with it later if he cares about them enough. there are certain gifts that he makes with different skills, normally knitting or crocheting, that are reserved for those that are much closer to him.

does your muse prefer receiving more practical or fun gifts?

practical, for sure. he'll accept fun gifts if they're given to him, and indulge in them. but like his own gift giving, he likes to be given something practical in return. he's extra awkward about receiving gifts, however, due to the fact that he's only received very few in his lifetime. he used to be extremely indifferent towards them and would be ungrateful.

but that's drastically changed over the past 15 years. he sees just how valuable and precious that they can be. the practical gifts also hold sentimental value in them, so he treasures them a little more.

╰ ☆ ✧ — @vulpesly asked: [ headcanon time! ] if celeste was presented with one of two options of classes to take, which would she be more drawn to: a course that studies natural history, or a course on innovations and developments of technology?

↳ -: ☆ ( Unprompted. ) ☆ :-

Celeste definitely isn't anti - technology; especially given the technological advancements in Paldea and Blueberry Academy ( most notably the latter ). However, she would feel more drawn to natural history given that she's spent so much of her life basically studying FUTURISTIC ROBOTIC POKEMON and even longer trying to fight against them. She's definitely tired of studying robots and technology; especially after the whole thing which is why she eventually steps away to focus on her Pokemon and figure out what she wants to do next in her life.

However, if she were to find a Professor / class that wasn't focused on unleashing robotic Pokemon to destroy the region and wanted to study technology for good, I think she would be okay with studying innovation and technology again !

@vulpesly has inquired: ❝ don't tell me to quit being melodramatic it's the only time i have any fun. ❞

[ jono to teruko (sorry he wanted to pester your hunting dogs!) ]

" You're free to be as melodramatic as you want it, but who said I wanted to be a part of your show? Go be a melodramatic asshole anywhere that's not near me or the Captain... " Teruko snaps back at the anger of two chihuahuas. " Unless you plan to be a melodramatic ass to Tachihara, then I might find myself joining in on the fun, heheh~♪ "

❛ i'm here for business — not pleasure. ❜ [ jono to sigma or dazai ]

The smile that had been there moments ago is quick to fade into something much more neutral. "What can I help you with then?"

It would be a lie to say that the man in front of him doesn't make him nervous. But there wasn't any room for error right now. Sigma clasps his hands in front of him, and he doesn't dare take sharpened eyes off of Jono. "I'll do my best to make sure that your experience is still satisfactory, sir."

@vulpesly asked: "It's all right, you rest now. Don't worry about me." [ jono/niimi ]

Niimi wants to argue, to fight the urge to rest, to just stay awake a little bit longer. There is pain and there is worry. Sure Niimi has his own injuries, but so does Jono- The scent of blood is heavy and it worries the boy.

"Will you still be here when I wake up?" Fingers curl into the dark red cape of Jono's, afraid the other might go- even if it's illogical. But... Jono might leave to keep fighting... to keep Niimi safe. "Please don't go-"

[sunderedscript]

"I don't know which I wished for more, to loose my sight or my hearing." Or rewind the past five minutes of Jono walking in just as he had thrown the nearest object, a spoon with a bit too much bloodlust behind it, at the parasite that had been eating away at his patiences and sanity the past hour. Considering the elderly man's laughter, he's leaning more towards his hearing.

A shame, the detective had worked so hard to skillfully hide this long term issue for Jono.

"Welcome back, Jono-kun. Have you finished your work for the day?"

╰ ☆ ✧ — @vulpesly asked: White Fang meant to mind his own business as he trots through the city, it is usually for the best to ignore humans so that they ignore him in turn. But the wolf-dog’s attention is drawn by a young child, the canine’s steps slowing as he pauses to watch them cross the street. Ears prick forward at the sound of a revving engine and squealing tires, a car whipping around the corner going too fast to possibly see the child or stop in time.

Without thinking, the wolf-dog bounds forward and sinks teeth into the back of the child’s coat to haul them back onto the sidewalk. White Fang snorts in exasperation as soon as he releases the little human, peering at them critically. “Be careful. Those beasts of metal kill even when they are not hungry.”

⊱ ★ ⊰ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤThat line of thinking and the simple lack of experience on the streets were a big part of why the child had failed to LOOK BOTH WAYS. The distant sound of a roaring engine and rolling tires against the asphalt hardly catches their attention until SOMETHING pulls them back. Only then do they finally notice the VEHICLE that zooms past; staring with widened eyes.

⊱ ★ ⊰ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤOnce the shock begins to fade, they turn; expecting to see an adult or perhaps even another child that had pulled them back. What their starry hues fall upon instead was a DOG.

⊱ ★ ⊰ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤWait, a TALKING DOG ? Well, maybe this wasn't the craziest thing they had ever seen considering Jono - niisan and Yuzuki - san. Still, it wasn't every day they saw a talking dog.

⊱ ★ ⊰ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤThe child asks; kneeling down to face the canine. The dog looked like an ordinary dog. Though, the fact that it was talking clearly showed that it WASN'T.

[ injury ] a careful kiss on a partner's wound to make it all better [ jiao to fei! ]

DIFFERENT WAYS TO KISS SOMEONE

"I'm alright, you don't have to..."

Despite his half-hearted protests, Feixue readily complies with Jiaoqiu's silent request and holds out his injured hand, which he's having a bit of a hard time fixing up one-handed.

The fact his uninjured hand is trembling not-so-subtly certainly doesn't help. He's long washed off the blood from the mara-struck he's had to put down for the safety of Aurum Alley, but he keeps seeing red spots at the corner of his eyes whenever he blinks...

Then, much to the innkeeper's surprise, the Foxian healer lifts his now-bandaged hand to his own lips to press a soft kiss to the palm, as if it could help heal the cuts faster.

That's certainly enough to distract the long-lived human from his dark thoughts, lifting his free arm to hide his reddening face behind a wide sleeve even as he mutters a soft "thank you...", hand no longer trembling.

@vulpesly sent: “I think we can safely assume a ghost is not the culprit here!” [ -jono ]

"Yeah, I know, I was being sarcastic!" Risen voice bounces off the corners of the otherwise empty space, devoid of any noticeable habitation.

Maybe the sound and displaced object had been a stray cat or a raccoon knocking into something. Maybe it had been a person. Maybe an Ability was responsible. Whatever the case, chances were good something was here other than them. If it was an animal, no doubt his shout had sent it running. If not? Well, they'd better hope they were just some passerby and not a troublemaker.

More quietly, he grumbles, "I don't even believe in stupid ghosts and superstitions like that. There's obviously a more rational explanation for it."
