#wttt wisconsin/illinois

Oh look! Even more of these!

[doueverwonder]

*meanwhile at a Midwest meeting*

North Dakota: I have a question.

Illinois: Shoot.

North Dakota: Is the S or C in scent silent?

Ohio: Fuck you, I��m going to be thinking about this all day.

Nebraska: Okay well, cent is pronounced the same way as scent so I’m gonna say the S is silent.

Indiana: Okay, but sent is also spelled the same way.

Missouri: Google says that the C was added in the late seventeenth century, so I guess the S is silent.

Wisconsin: Plot twist, both the S and the C are silent and the E actually makes the sss sound.

Minnesota: Wisconsin is not allowed to talk anymore.

some midwest headcanons that refuse to leave my mind

ohio has two degrees, one in astrophysics and the other in aerospace engineering (his love for planes and space coming together in one degree)

the only times you'll see minnesota and indiana angry is when hockey or basketball are involved, respectively. the rest of the time they are unanimously considered to be the nicest and most peaceful midwestern states

minnesota can and will hold grudges, but it's very rare that he's obvious about it

indiana sometimes works as a car mechanic, but he loves to buy old cars and restore them before selling them again

wisconsin has a harley and is extremely proud of it

every year, minnesota and wisconsin go hunting together on the first day of hunting season, there is no hope of contacting either of them that entire first week

illinois is a closet theatre kid. he doesn't want to admit it out of fear of being called chicago even more than he already does

illinois has a personal vendetta against The Bean. the only joy he gets from that thing is calling it "The Bean" to piss off the artist

michigan is the go to driver when it comes to midwest events. not only is he the best driver out of the group, but he also refuses to get in a car if ohio, wisconsin, or illinois is driving

kansas has a dog called Toto because he unironically loves the wizard of oz. his favorite musical is, of course, wicked

kansas has a little farm with chickens, goats, a vegetable garden, and a sunflower garden and tries to live off the land as much as possible

michigan and wisconsin love to make the states outside of the midwest try to pronounce their city names

ohio is attracted to fire like, well, a moth to a flame. the same goes for fire to ohio. even when he has nothing to do with it, things just happen to spontaneously combust around him

Florida: Chicago, are you friends with Sconnie?

Illinois: Kind of? Not really. He's in my life and there's nothing I can do about it

WTTT Midwest Nicknames HCs

I'm bored and scrolling through the #wtttindiana tag so... credit to @xechoecho88x for this idea! :D

Indiana - I see your "Indi" nickname and I spit on it (/nm /lh) it's a cute nickname but I - and by extension, he, as these are my hcs - think Indi/Indy is reserved purely for the capital. so sorry. Not a big nicknames guy; will respond to "Hoosier" or some variation of "Ill- Ohi- Mich-" because he's used to the others mixing up the Midwests' names atp.

Illinois - HATES nicknames. His name does not lend well to them, and he refuses to acknowledge others if they try to call him by another state's name, or, God Forbid, call him Chicago. Appreciates the nickname "Prairie", as it's his official nickname, but if you're not close with him (so. if you're not Indiana, mostly, stretching it if you're Minnesota, Michigan, or Ohio) he might actually cut you. so.

Ohio - "'Hio" (pronounced Hi-O), "I-O" (pronounced the way it's spelled), "Buckeye" - He's really pushing for "O-H" (also pronounced the way it's spelled) but the other states dgaf. (his ass is NOT getting called O-H). Also refuses to respond if other states start calling him anything other than his name. Will shun and not speak to someone if they accidentally start saying "Mich-"

Minnesota - Will respond to "'Sota" (pronounced Soda) and "North Star", and will be passive-aggressive but respond to, "Minnesota" in a very stereotypical Minnesotan accent. Wisconsin does this often. "Minne/Minnie" (pronounced Minnie) depends. If he's in a very good mood, go for it. Does not go over well in meetings; as the youngest Midwest state, he's got kind of a thing about being seen as 'childish', even if it's just a cute nickname.

Michigan - "Mich" is pretty standard. Secretly prays for the day that somebody calls him "Wolverine" as it's one of his official nicknames but nobody is going to do that. Also not a big nicknames kinda guy, but Ohio is walking proof that he will respond to "The One that Shall Not Be Named", "That State up North", "Voldemort", or any variation of that.

Iowa - Generally others just call him by his name; it's pretty hard to shorten a 4-letter name. "I-O" (pronounced as seen above) can be used but only if Ohio isn't around. Sometimes referred to as "Hawkeye", as it's his official nickname. This drives Michigan up the wall - if Iowa can get a cool superhero name, why can't he?! Iowa doesn't gaf.

Nebraska - "'Braska" is pretty solidly his only nickname. He doesn't care what people call him. He'll respond to a mix of, "Ill- Indi- Wisc-" but be passive-aggressive about it. Might be petty and call the state who'd messed up the wrong name on purpose, but generally doesn't care.

Kansas - Like Illinois, generally dislikes nicknames since his name doesn't lend to them. However, will happily respond to, "Sunflower" or "Dorothy". He thinks they're cute nicknames and doesn't mind friends or other states using them.

South Dakota - Responds to "South" best, or "SD" (pronounced like it's spelled). Doesn't have a lot of other nicknames, but will start a massive argument if you accidentally call him North. Doesn't respond to "'Kota" since it's a shared nickname with his brother.

North Dakota - "North" or "DK" (pronounced like it's spelled) are his preferred nicknames. Will be passive-aggressive and make you feel like sh!t if you accidentally call him South. Doesn't respond to "'Kota" since it's a shared nickname with his brother.

Missouri - "Souri" (pronounced like Zuri, from Jessie if you've seen that) is pretty much his only nickname - though it doesn't get much use. He doesn't like many other nicknames, not that there are many. "Missy" can be tossed in, but that's usually just teasing from Ohio or other states trying to bother him.

Wisconsin - Happily accepts "Sconnie" as a nickname, doesn't get called "Badger" (another official nickname situation) often but doesn't mind that, either. He's generally pretty chill about it and doesn't mind the use of his full name or whatever nickname you can come up with.

This was all in good fun, no offense meant :3 - if you think of any fun state nicknames for them definitely tag them I just can't stop thinking about them. I love them. Found Family (they're literally us states)

real photo of a midwestern meeting (they r chilling)

[mittenstroll]

Great Lakes states definitely celebrate birthdays together. The also aren’t allowed to be rude to each other during these celebrations…and this is def how it goes

[louis--wifey]

How tall I think all of the states are

I don't think I've done this before if I have, I forgot. I'm bored and I have nothing better to do. (I'm gonna list them by tallest to shortest and with minimum commentary)

Note: as I am writing this note, I am midway writing this whole thing and realizing that basing it off of the size of state is not the right choice. I am now going with energies but I am not changing any of the commentary that I already made because fuck that

Alaska - 6'8"

I've seen people put Alaska as over 7 ft tall and I have a cousin, multiple cousins actually, who are in fact over 7 ft tall and I don't think you guys understand how tall that is. It is terrifying to be barely over 5 ft tall and have somebody towering to feet over you. My neighbor is 6'7" and that is about as much as I can handle without feeling like I'm about to get trampled by a fucking Sasquatch. Alaska is tall but he's not 7 ft tall and I will stand by that

Texas - 6'4"

California - 6'3"

I know that Texas is fairly larger than California but California is long. I see him as being tall and skinny but not taller than Texas tall like barely shorter than Texas tall.

Montana - 6'2"

New Mexico - 6'

Arizona - 5'11"

Nevada - 5'11"

Colorado - 5'11"

Wyoming - 5'11"

Oregon - 5'10"

Minnesota - 5'10"

Idaho - 5'10"

Missouri - 5'10"

New York - 5'9"

Most of these are, in fact, based on the size of the actual state however New York has 5'9" energy. I can't explain it but he does.

Nebraska - 5'9"

South Dakota - 5'9"

North Dakota - 5'9"

Oklahoma - 5'9"

Alabama - 5'9"

Mississippi - 5'9"

North Carolina - 5'9"

Tennessee - 5'9"

Utah - 5'8"

Utah is another one that is not based on size of state because he has too much smol boy energy

Kansas - 5'8"

Pennsylvania - 5'8"

Wisconsin - 5'8"

Georgia - 5'8"

Louisiana - 5'8"

Illinois - 5'7"

Kentucky - 5'7"

Virginia - 5'7"

Arkansas - 5'7"

Iowa - 5'7"

Ohio - 5'7"

South Carolina - 5'7"

Michigan - 5'6"

Michigan is actually the biggest one of all of the midwest states but I'm making him the shortest because he has too much blouse energy to be taller than 5'6".

Washington - 5'6"

West Virginia - 5'6"

Maine - 5'6"

Indiana - 5'5"

I take it back, Indiana is shorter because he has skirt energy and he has even smoler boy vibes than Michigan

Connecticut - 5'5"

Florida - 5'5"

Florida is 5'5" because Ben is 5'5" that is my only reasoning.

Maryland - 5'4"

Hawaii - 5'4"

Massachusetts - 5'3"

New Jersey - 5'3"

Vermont - 5'2"

New Hampshire - 5'2"

Delaware - 5'

Rhode Island - 4'11"

[doueverwonder]

back to thinking about Gov making the regions intermingle, the Midwest and South was somehow the worst and best of all of them. What started off as Country Folk Shenanigans(TM) and a worrying amount of jello and/or cool whip based salads ended with a stand-off to see who was going to be impolite and leave first. They ended up having to send other states in to break it up.

wttt midwest nickname headcanons bc i'm bored~

Indiana: totally fine being called indy, he thinks its a cute nickname

Wisconsin: likes being called sconnie, any other nickname he finds kind of strange but will not confront you about it

Minnesota: do not call him minnie unless you're indiana or wisconsin. he's not going to say anything directly but he will be very passive-aggressive about it. fine with being called soda(sota), finds other nicknames to be silly but won't say anything about it

Missouri: hated being called misery by the other states. loves any and all other nicknames

Illinois: do not call him illy if you value your organs or are indiana. neutral about ill, and will beat you up if you pronounce the 's' in his name

Ohio: desperately wants to be called O-H, no one will call him this

Michigan: most commonly called mich, all other nicknames are uncommon but he's not really bothered by any of them

Nebraska: has a few nicknames and finds them all to be fun. (nebby, braska, etc) just likes the recognition

Kansas: avid hater of nicknames, probably because he doesn't have any good ones. will correct people if they try to use a nickname

the Dakotas: honestly impressed if you manage to find a nickname that isn't being used by another state. when its just the midwest north and south are acceptable. typically called souda or norda by other states

Iowa: anytime someone tries to give him a nickname he questions their sanity, because his name is only four letters and he finds the obsession with nicknames to be ridiculous
