Rorschach Being in Love with You - Headcanons

Rorschach x Fem!Reader

Warnings: mention of violence, smut

Of course, in the beginning, he would deny it

He thinks it's better if you stay far from him

And yet, he keeps coming back for you

He often watches you sleep or do daily tasks

And you pretend you don't know he is watching

It was a simple system

Until one day

It was a late evening, you were let off from work later than usual 

Recipe for disaster and for men to take advantage

You ran, but there was nowhere to hide

But of course, you were saved

And from that day on, he never wants to leave your side

And he only does after making sure you are home, safe

A relationship with Rorschach is difficult

And even with your history, it does have a lot of challenges 

But you love him and he loves you, that should be enough

He would always come home late and sleep through the night

But sometimes, on occasion, he would come home early

Sex with him was a bit of a struggle, especially in the beginning

Given how his mother was, he had to get used to having a woman's touch

But once he got comfortable, nothing was off the table

He would refuse to do anything that would hurt you.

But other than that, he was open especially if you wanted to try something out

Rough, angry sex with him is like magic

It was a way to take out his anger 

And it was in a way that pleased you very much

He would pound you so hard, you would lose feeling in your legs for the next few hours and your legs would be sore for the next few days

But he can be gentle

Those are what you would call, love making

When you prove to one another how much you love each other

He likes to pull on your hair and fuck you from behind

He likes to have your legs around his neck as he eats you out and then fucks you

Scratch his back all you want, he will not complain

You can ride him if you ask nicely

He can be so dominant, you absolutely loved it

He would tell you what to do

And he loves to get blowjobs, again, while pulling on your hair

He would call you all kinds of names, Darling, My Love, Sweetheart

He would never degrade you, don't ask him to call you a slut or a whore

But he can call you Kitten, Princess or My Queen

Just imagine riding him, the bed is creaking as you keep moving, all you can feel is his cock inside you and he calls you "My Queen."

But he makes sure you come first before he does

If you tire him out, he won't leave for the night

But there are nights when he just comes home for a quicky before going back to fight crime

You would call it a simple life

But it was your love

And you are the only person who can call him Walter without him killing you

He is not the type to go or to take you on dates

But it doesn't mean he can't or won't enjoy a night with candlelight and food

Soft is not a word you would use to describe him

But he can be gentle with you

And he wants to be better, do better for you

It was love

Undeniable love

Not even he could do anything about it

I agree too, it's about time he was on the cover of this magazine🛐🛐🛐 @peoplemag

[sevrats]

He has a riddle! I made the grave mistake of listening to The Riddler: Secrets in the Dark podcast and holy moly is he just a silly little guy. I am not a super avid DC reader but this podcast makes me crave a series where Riddler and a robin team up to find batman - where Robin is doing it to save him, and Riddler is just kinda doing it to solve the mystery. What a guy

[sthefany16]

I agree! Patrick Wilson is People's #SexiestManAlive 2025 @peoplemag #PatrickWilsonSexiestManAlive2025

I agree too! It's about time he was people's Sexiest Man Alive. Everyone who loves and admires Patrick should share this post so that @peoplemag magazine can finally put an end to this historic mistake. Ps: see the whole thread😍🥰✨❤️

Y/N and Laura putting on their costumes and coming out of retirement.

Y/N: Laura, we need to go right now.

Laura comes down the stairs.

Y/N: (nervous) woah, you still look hot.

Laura blushes.

Laura: (Purrs) Don’t get turn on. Duty calls.

I’m very happy that there’s a slight New York accent to the voice acting in Watchmen Chapter 1

Which reminds me, I forgot Walter would technically have a New Jersey accent, wouldn’t he? He grew up there and all that, so it makes sense…

He’s too busy trying to sound tall to let his accent come through

[thornheartless]

Can you imagine showing Rorschach the way people talk about him on here, I think he'd maybe explode again

[yandere-toons]

Soo I'm back with some more watchmen headcanons! I submitted some more before but tbh I like the ones here more lol. Enjoy! I'm tempted to try to write some romantic Rorschach ones too, he's such a complicated character to think about when it comes to writing but it'd be a fun challenge to write him in a romantic context.

-I think Watchmen would have ended differently if platonic yandere Ozymandias took reader from the rest of the platonic yandere characters so they wouldn't have to be in New York when he enacts his plan? I don't know if Rorschach would've asked Dr Manhattan to kill him if he knew reader was being held against their will, and idk if Dr Manhattan would've left if he knew reader was in trouble too. Maybe there would be one final conflict between everybody?

-The original Silk Spectre and Nite Owl would definitely spoil the crap out of reader. I can see them both telling reader about their old days as heros 

-The comedian would definitely want reader to know some of his old tricks, he'd definitely have the potential to be a horrible influence on them, which is definitely one of the main factors as to why Ozymandias killed him.

-I feel like even before Rorschach snapped after the kidnapping of the little girl, he'd still be pretty protective of reader. Nite owl would worry a lot about them, he'd be like a worrying mother lmao

-If the reader had superpowers, I could see that being a driving factor for Dr Manhattan being fascinated by them, for once he'd feel like he almost has an equal. I imagine the characters would be varying degrees of paranoid about reader's safety as a superpowered person. They wouldn't want to see reader be turned essentially into a government weapon like what happened with Dr Manhattan. Rorschach would probably have the most extreme reaction, he'd probably just straight up kidnap them and isolate them from the rest of the world "foR thEiR saFETy" because he's unstable like that and we all love him for it

[sthefany16]

Why does this feel so good to me? 😍🫦🔥🛐✨

Hi guys, how are you? First post of 2025🥳✨ I hope the end of the year was amazing🥰🥰

⚠️NSFW- MDNI+18⚠️

Can someone write a smut fanfic where Y/n is a vacation photographer who is traveling in the central United States on a motorcycle. You are used to taking photos of beautiful landscapes, so passing by an old church you decided to stop to admire it and take some photos, but suddenly you start to hear screams of a child asking for help coming from the bush on the other side of the street, Desperate and with nothing to do, you decide to go in and try to help him.

After many hours lost and walking in circles you find Ross, father of the boy who you heard him scream. His clothes were already sweaty from trying to find his son Tobin, who despite the situation was in a good mood. Ross was a little strange, but he seemed like a good guy, so you allowed him to guide you to the exit of this maze, while you tried to find your family.

After getting distracted on the way, you lose track of the man and end up being alone again. At the end of the afternoon Toby finds you, accompanied by Becky, a pregnant woman, your brother Cal and your boyfriend Travis. While looking for the exit, Becky started to feel sick and fell unconscious on the floor. Luckily, Ross finds you and helps her by giving her a heart massage.

It was already dark and Ross was taking you to the exit, he was singing and talking to everyone trying to lighten the mood. You were very sympathetic to him, but then Ross takes them to a place with a huge rock and starts saying strange and nonsensical things saying that we had to touch it like he had done too, scaring everyone.

In the middle of Ross' speech, his wife appears terrified telling us to stay away from him, Toby runs into his arms while his father mocks Natalie's face. Becky's boyfriend takes over the situation by attacking Ross so they can run, but they are paralyzed.

Ross breaks Travis' arm and attacks his wife, effortlessly crushing her head with his hands. You run away terrified, trying to get away from him as quickly as possible, but Ross comes after you, killing you one by one. He was interested in Becky, but after he got fed up with her I decided to go after you.

You try to escape him in every way but all paths lead you to him. Ross grabs you and holds you tightly, whispering in your ear while removing the clothes from your body: "You wanna touch the rock, darlin'? Huh? You wanna lay on it naked? Wanna feel me in you? Beneath the pinwheel stars while the grass Sing our names? It's poetry, huh?"

While removing the belt from his pants, pulling his arms back and tying his hands tightly, Ross explains that blood is nice, but tears are better for an old, thirsty rock like that.

"It has to be quick, though. Don't wanna do it in front of the kid." He says with a smile that terrified you to the bone (Patrick's smile is delicious 😍🫦🔥🛐), as he laid you down on the ground, straddling you, pinning you firmly to the ground.

With dark content, non-con, dubcon, (descriptions of blood, body horror), coercion, religious themes, corruption, rough sex (He was so big it looked like you were a virgin), humiliation, degradation, praise, fingering, oral sex (f receiving), dacryphilia, unprotected sex, hair pulling, multiple orgasms, masturbation, deep throat, choking, face slapping, pussy slapping, cum swallowing, spitting and whatever else you want.

The decision whether she manages to escape the undergrowth is up to you!🥰❤️ Pleaseee 🙏 🙏 🛐🫦🔥✨

⚠️ Blood and fake images!⚠️

I know this request is a little different but I hope you like it🥰🥰

The King Come Over and his bride Ygritte Firekissed

art by : @shripscapi

Edited to add: I was hoping that people that did not like this ship could still appreciate the art as I gave them two separate pieces, but people have been coming into my inbox on all platforms, so let me encourage you to block the Jongritte and Ygritte tags on tumblr or twt, as well as me so you will not have to see it if this is you. I also would encourage you to create your own AU as it is very fun. My AU is based on Jon becoming King before leaving the Freefolk, so following his psychology as a character, Ygritte is his only choice as consort as long as she’s alive. You can make your own with Val if you want, but I do not owe anyone to pay for commissions of their preferred characters.

Look at my King dawg we’re definitely getting through the Wall!!!

For the last month and a half, I have been working closely with Liesl to design concepts for Jon as King Beyond the Wall and Ygritte as his Queen. Personally, I’m not invested at all in Jon becoming King of the Seven Kingdoms despite him being my favorite character. He’s not very connected with the South and I don’t feel that it’s his birth right or anything, even being the son of Rhaegar. I am significantly more interested in him becoming King in the North, but my interest in Freefolk culture has led me to be far more invested in the idea of him rejecting Southron society as a whole and becoming King Beyond the Wall (this isn’t necessarily mutually exclusive to being King in the North later on).

The motivation for Jon becoming King as opposed to Mance stems from a theory that has been around since AGOT has come out: that the Others will only treat with/negotiate with a Stark. In the prologue of AGOT, when the Others are speaking among themselves before killing the Watchmen, what if they were confirming with each other that Waymar Royce was not a Stark and that they could go ahead and kill him? All in all, it doesn’t really matter if this is true, but rather that this is a plausible rumor that could easily have been passed down among the Freefolk which could lead Mance to conclude that Jon as a leader would give the Freefolk the best chance of survival. It’s not very hard, at least in my opinion, to imagine an AU like this, since survival is the most important thing to the Freefolk during the events of ASOIAF. But is it plausible that under these circumstances that Jon would abandon his Night’s Watch vows? I think so if he can be led to believe that only Stark blood could defeat the Others, but that is not the only factor. Jon Snow is insecure about his bastard status, plain and simple. He’s always lived in the shadow of his Robb, though he loved him. He’s wanted Winterfell, though he didn’t want to nor had any intention to take it from Robb. But he’s known since he was a small boy that he could never Winterfell and that would never inherit anything because he was a bastard. Jon also has thoughts, at least in passing, that Ned loved Robb more than him. He perceives Ned as having been more proud of Robb, of looking at him differently than himself. He’s seemingly always believed this, but there is a sort of confirmation of Jon’s feelings when Ned allows him to join the Night’s Watch without much preparation on what the Watch is actually like. Fully me making assumptions here, not something Jon has explicitly thought, but it’s unlikely that Ned would have sent Bran off at 14 to the Watch without much warning of what it was like, had Bran not become paralyzed. While we never get this exact thought process from Jon, in my opinion it fits into his psychology and insecurity. All this to say, if Jon is offered to be a figurehead, King, a title equal to his brother, but without taking anything away from the Starks or from Robb, that would almost certainly scratch that itch in him. It would be of his own merit, and there would be people behind him that don’t care that he’s a bastard, don’t see him as less than, and are willing to accept him for who he is. Not to mention that it also lets him feel like a hero and as if he is saving something far more precious than himself. And it probably doesn’t hurt that he would be able to remain with Ygritte as well.

We know from the descriptions of Mance and Dalla, as well as from being told directly by the former, that the King and his wife dress like all the other Freefolk, in thick furs. While the Jon and Ygritte arts from above are not particularly ostentatious by Southron standards, they are in obvious contrast to how Mance and Dalla are dressed. My idea was that Jon, having lived South of the Wall in a Lord’s keep all of his life, brought his own ideas to the Freefolk and added a distinction between a King and all other men. Nothing like in King’s Landing, all changes are inspired by his experience at Winterfell. I tried to think of what was achievable by the Freefolk, that would be difficult enough that it can’t be easily replicated for everyone else, but also keeping in mind of what could be done relatively quickly seeing as the Freefolk are focused on migrating South and saving themselves from the Others. The cultures I took inspiration for the clothing from are the Byzantines, Russians, Incans, Aztecs, and Mongolians. I wanted more “open” and flowy clothing, as opposed to more closed off and excessively modest clothing of 1300-1500s Europe that most of Westeros is based off of. Ygritte is still wearing furs, but they are dyed and there is weirwood embroidery in symbolism of the Old Gods and flame embroidery to symbolize her being kissed by fire. Her jewelry are simply clay beads that have been powdered blue. I didn’t want to give her any jewels as I felt it would be too difficult for the Freefolk to cut them directly and just overall would be against the spirit of the Freefolk. However, getting the blue on the clay like that still would be expensive and take a lot of time. I tried to keep the main color scheme surrounding gray as obviously that’s House Stark’s color. Jon’s clothes are similarly nice, with my main concern being him looking intimidating. I want the furs around his shoulders to be black because I wanted to call back to his time in the Night’s Watch without him keeping his psychical cloak, because I’m sure the Freefolk would not want him to do that. The furs are massive and make his shoulders look far larger, in an effort to make him look more intimidating, especially on a battlefield or in negotiations. He also has weirwood embroidery and his sigil is on the front of his outfit (my original idea was for him to have a flag with his heraldry on it, in which case the sigil would have looked far different, with a full length direwolf). There’s a white wolf on one side and either a crow or eagle on the other side (up for interpretation, both are relevant to Jon and one is one of the animals that can be used a symbol of the Freefolk) and the flame in the middle to represent Ygritte, but also defeating the Others as fire is the way Jon originally tried combating them as a steward at the Wall. The sigil is more than about Jon, after all, as it’s for the entirety of House Whitewolf, the House he founds. I thought the name fit far more in to Freefolk culture than something like Whitestark or something along those lines. Ygritte was supposed to have sewn on the sigil herself, and was very adamant about it, and that is meant to be why the thread is uneven and more visible than it ought to be. She’s not very good at the craft!

As I indicated before, crowns are not something common to Freefolk. That would be something else Jon would implement. Ygritte’s crown is very much like a hat, very casual. The beads are nice but obtaining them wouldn’t be unheard of, and holly most likely would not be particularly hard to come by. The reason I gave her a crown with holly is that during Christmas in the Tudor period and even before during pagan celebrations, people would go out into the woods and find holly and ivy to decorate their houses with. Holly was a symbol of masculine energy and ivy feminine energy. If you found more holly, it was meant to indicate that the man would rule the household for the year, and if you found more ivy then the woman would rule the household in the coming year (this was a way to “tell the future” not a rule lol). I liked the holly better for Ygritte so I’m just saying the Freefolk had the opposite belief. Jon’s crown is made of weirwood, which was important to me as I feel like his connection the Old Gods is also important as it is something that him and Freefolk both use to guide them. It ties them together. That being said, a weirwood crown is often used for Bran so I did not want to use a design that was too similar to the one used for him. Bran’s weirwood crown usually is made of weirwood branches, however, and not weirwood bark or logs, so I feel like it’s different enough. The frozen weirwood sap, as far as I know, is also unique to this design. There’s also some ivy to parallel with Ygritte’s holly.

The remaining bits and bobs I wanted to explain are the blue rose and then the face paint. The blue rose is obviously something associated with Lyanna Stark, who is widely accepted to be the mother of Jon Snow. I originally wanted to give him a rose somewhere, whether he was holding it or it was in his embroidery, but I forgot to ask during sketching, and then it was too late. But Ygritte holding the blue rose isn’t just about Lyanna. It’s also about Bael the Bard, a most likely fictitious person (or at least, the tale is fictitious, though I personally choose to believe it’s real) that went South of the Wall posing as a bard. He impressed the Lord of Winterfell so much that he granted Bael anything he wished; all Bael asked for was the most beautiful flower in Winterfell. This was granted for him, but the next morning he had stolen the Lord of Winterfell’s only child, a girl, and had left the flower in her bed in her place. He hid in the crypt with her for a year and they had a son together. Bael eventually went back North of the Wall and eventually Winterfell, having no other heir, passed to Bael’s child. Under this story, Jon is descended from Ygritte’s idol (maybe idol is stretching it, but she really likes him), Bael the Bard. Not only him, but all the Freefolk including Ygritte, according to her story. Following the story’s premise, Jon also poses as Bael and Ygritte as Winterfell’s daughter, with Jon joining her home under false pretenses and “stealing her”, as she calls it. So the blue rose has significance regarding both the Starks and the Freefolk. The face paint is inspired by tattooing done by cultures indigenous to North America. Indigenous Americans are not the only groups to use facial tattooing, the Vikings were famous for it as well, but Viking facial tattooing had more patterns based on shapes rather than lines and dots. I didn’t like the shapes so much, but the chin tattoo was one was that observed in all sorts of different cultures. Usually the chin tattoos with the line were on women in indigenous America, but I found some on men in other outside cultures. The dots I didn’t see outside of Native American culture and the claw marks on Jon’s cheeks I found mainly among Vikings. Because these all are an amalgamation of different cultures, we did them as face paint instead of tattoos because it seemed disrespectful otherwise. Not enough research went into it to be a proper representation of any one culture so paint was a better bet than a permanent body modification that is sacred to a number of cultures. The only thing that was meant to be a tattoo was the chin tattoo, which like I said, actually is from an amalgamation of cultures. Among the Freefolk (in this AU), dots on the cheeks are widespread, one of cultural mainstays of their people, and are generally a sign of peace, whereas the claws are meant to look intimidating and is applied to look like blood (Ygritte applies it for Jon) and is specifically used for military leaders. I really wanted to drive home the point that the goal with Jon’s whole look is to look fearsome.

I have so much more to say about Jon as King Beyond the Wall, how he negotiates with the Wall, the different rules he sets in place, how he sets up being King as a hereditary title once his daughter Bael is born, etc etc, but then I’d be here all day and approximately one person total read through all this. Oops! Ask in my inbox if you have any questions because I would love love love to answer them. All in all, shripscapi (Liesl) is so talented and she worked incredibly hard for me. She was extremely accommodating and changed as much stuff as I wanted. She never complained about the million times I decided something was not quite right and she sent me so many updates. I would recommend working with her to just about anybody. It was very cool what she was able to achieve and I got it in time for the holidays so I can enjoy my winter themed pfp on twt. So thank you from the bottom of my heart Liesl, and I hope everyone showers her with compliments because she deserves it. I also hope that people that don’t enjoy Ygritte very much can still appreciate the art and the concept of Jon as King Beyond the Wall. Hopefully I’ve gotten across how much I love and care for these characters to a chronically online degree and nobody accuses me of mischaracterizing them because that would make me!!!! very sad!!!

Bonus Jon with weirwood leaves:

How to Read Now: Essays

Elaine Castillo

How to Read Now explores the politics and ethics of reading, and insists that we are capable of something better: a more engaged relationship not just with our fiction and our art, but with our buried and entangled histories. Smart, funny, galvanizing, and sometimes profane, Castillo attacks the stale questions and less-than-critical proclamations that masquerade as vital discussion: reimagining the cartography of the classics, building a moral case against the settler colonialism of lauded writers like Joan Didion, taking aim at Nobel Prize winners and toppling indie filmmakers, and celebrating glorious moments in everything from popular TV like The Watchmen to the films of Wong Kar-wai and the work of contemporary poets like Tommy Pico.

At once a deeply personal and searching history of one woman's reading life, and a wide-ranging and urgent intervention into our globalized conversations about why reading matters today, How to Read Now empowers us to embrace a more complicated, embodied form of reading, inviting us to acknowledge complicated truths, ignite surprising connections, imagine a more daring solidarity, and create space for a riskier intimacy--within ourselves, and with each other.

[yandere-toons]

I've returned with some more platonic yandere watchmen headcanons! These characters are all so interesting to write and think about.

-I feel like Watchmen would've ended differently given that Ozymandias most likely kidnapped Reader so they wouldn't be in New York when he enacts his plan. I don't think dr.manhattan would leave or that Rorschach would ask dr.manhattan to kill him. I don't think any of the watchmen characters would be fine with the idea of Ozymandias having Reader all to himself (though let's be honest, they'd all probably do the same thing under different circumstances lmao) so I can imagine there being some more conflict.

-Back when Rorschach and Nite Owl were partners, I can see Rorschach being protective of Nite Owl's sidekick!teenager!Reader even before he snapped. Nite owl would definitely fuss over any injuries they get. Rorschach would want to make sure they don't have to suffer from a horrible childhood like he did, he'd definitely beat up criminals that dare to lay a hand on Reader even more than he normally would. Obviously he wouldn't kill them since this is before he started killing, but still he would NOT hold back lol.

-Before the Keene act was passed, I can see the public cooing over Ozymandias's and Reader's dynamic. I feel like they'd love to see Ozymandias having a soft spot for Reader, and spoiling the crap out of them.

-Silk Spectre would NOT tolerate The Comedian being anywhere near Reader. Period.

-I can see Ozymandias being pretty calm about the whole "kidnapping Reader to keep them safe from his giant squid thingy abomination" thing. He wouldn't raise his voice at them if they expressed concern for where they are, or if they lose it when they find out about what he did. He'd be eerily calm throughout the entire thing, maybe even offering Reader a cup of tea to calm their nerves.

-Rorschach would definitely lose it the most when Ozymandias takes Reader. Don't get me wrong, Nite Owl becomes an anxious wreck but Rorschach would be absolutely terrifying during his and Nite Owl's investigation. I don't think he'd do his usual "break their fingers for information" thing, I think he'd genuinely straight up kill or at least threaten to do so.

-I imagine the original Silk Spectre and Nite Owl would be like a sweet grandma and grandpa to Reader. You cannot convince me that they don't go all out with buying Reader presents for their birthday or for Christmas.
