[twyrrinren]

what's the purpose of the shipping wars. (especially in dungeon meshi fandom???) are you the police. are you catholics. are we fighting over Kabru's hand in marriage.

ship. trans (ftm) kabru x reader

cw. nsfw + oviposition + monster/beastkin!reader

an. very very self indulgent for me and my followers. basically, kabru’s pretty and you gotta fill him with eggs. it’s only right.

It’s not often Kabru finds himself in situations like this. Or ever. Yet. Here he is, all due to his inability to say no.

And well, he can’t just blame it on that. The situation at hand is a byproduct of his own curiosity as well. Deep in the back of his mind, this is something Kabru’s been secretly curious about as well.

Breeding season is never easy. And it’s especially more difficult when you have such a handsome lover like Kabru around.

Your body’s been on overdrive. You could tell by your newfound appetite along with the growing desire building for Kabru. You need him. More than what he’s already given you, though. That’s not enough.

Just looking at him would have your mind on fire. His pretty, blues eyes…lithe body…even the sheen on his plump lips would be enough to make you shake off thoughts of pinning him to the table and fucking his brains out.

It got worse when the two of you would retire to his quarters at night. Sex didn’t even need to be on the table. When Kabru would take off his shirt, exposing his smooth tummy…

You’d wonder what it’d look like filled with your eggs. Kabru’s skinny enough that you’re sure you’d be able to see the distension in his abdomen after you pumped him full. He’d be such a good carrier, maybe a little broody—you shake your head. It’s enough Kabru’s conquered his fear of monster kind and has decided to enter a romantic relationship with you. You couldn’t ask him for this. Not now.

Kabru notices your discomfort. It’s written on your face the way you seem to be holding back around him. Disengaging with him sexually. He asks about it. And after a little discussion…he seems curious—maybe morbidly so. But it’s his responsibility as your boyfriend? Mate? Whatever? To help you, right? And it’s not like this can go anywhere unless you choose to fertilize them, so…

The length of your ovipositor rests against Kabru’s thigh. His chest rises and falls with a quick rhythm as you start to cover it with his slick.

“Is it going to hurt…?” He asks. There’s apprehension in his tone, but in the back of your mind you know he isn’t going to back out. His hard on makes that clear.

“Just a little.” You answer honestly. “There’s secretions that’ll…open you up. Keep you comfortable. But it’ll take a moment for that to kick in.”

Your body isn’t meant to breed with a humans. But you know it’ll affect Kabru’s similarly to a mate of your kind. It’ll feel odd at first, but pleasurable. You have a feeling he’ll come to enjoy it more than anticipated.

You line yourself up with Kabru’s entrance, then gently push in. This in itself isn’t a new experience. Kabru’s walls eagerly open for your length as they usually do. His head falls back onto the pillow, eyes fluttering as he does so. You place a kiss to his neck, continuing to pump in and out of the man before you. Kabru’s breathing picks up as his light moans fill the air.

You relish in his warmth around your length. It feels good, no, great. The familiar way his walls flutter around you and clench when you hit a certain spots makes you shudder…but something more primal than achieving orgasm drives you. After ensuring Kabru’s had enough time to stretch out, you let your length bottom out inside Kabru fully. You use one hand to gently stroke his cock, making Kabru’s thighs twitch as more wetness starts to leak from his slit.

He cracks open an eye. He’s so gorgeous, you have to resist the butterflies that flutter in your stomach.

“You’re stopping?”

You huff, lifting Kabru’s hips to better angle to fuck him deeper. Your length presses against his cervix—knocking the entrance to his womb. Kabru hisses, and you shush him with a kiss. As you said, the secretions from earlier have his body loosening up. An egg passes down your ovipositor, prying Kabru open for you.

He cries out. It’s in discomfort at first, but it quickly turns into pleasure. You can tell by the way his eyes roll back that your own biology is ensuring the upmost pleasure for your mate. His body shakes with orgasm after orgasm as you continue to fill him. Each one you talk him through it, cooing words of encouragement and praise of how well he’s taking you. How perfect he is for letting you impregnate him.

Kabru takes the eggs surprisingly well. Each one that fills his warm hole has him gasping and groaning in pleasure. It’s the same for you too. Not only is it pleasurable to have him clenching you and milking your length, but there’s a biological need taken care of by filling your mate with your eggs. You’ve staked your claim on his womb.

“M’ full…” Kabru mutters. His words are slurred—likely a mix from the pleasure and effects of the chemicals from your body.

You take a look at his abdomen. It’s slightly distended. Kabru’s human anatomy likely can’t make room for any more eggs, at least not in his womb.

“Can’t take anymore?” You tease, kissing his temple now. “I think you can stomach just a few more.”

He growls. You comment about him being broody already, which doesn’t earn you any favors.

Kabru tsks, his brows furrowing in annoyance.

“Just pull out. I gotta…”

He seems…very embarrassed. Which is odd, considering the situation at hand has progressed past the need for that. You shrug and oblige.

Kabru parts his thighs. His hole twitches annd ass flexes as he tries to push something out. His puffy lips part to let out one egg, and then another. You’d feel bad if it weren’t for the lewd moans he’s making—along with the pride you feel for wearing out his human body.

“I guess I did fill you up, hm?” You kiss his skin as Kabru’s face falls in relief.

“I’m just glad it’s over…” Kabru says. Drowsiness lies thick in his tone. “I’m exhausted…”

“Who said it was over?”

[enigmasong]

Girl, is it gay to go into a daze when you see someone and then shove your closest friend out of the way, ignoring them speaking, so you can introduce yourself to them before they can even notice your existence?

Like, okay, okay, there's nothing about about Kabru's actions that that can only possibly be interpreted as romantic/sexual.... but this ain't platonic.

Really, I'd put it as borderline manic.

But, mostly, I'd say Kabru's feelings towards Laios at this point in the story is a realistic undefinable cocktail of emotions - or, to put it terms Senshi may use: a stock broth. What their relationship can become will depend on what ingredients get added to the dish.

I mean, I ship it, but...

[prismatoxic]

you get it. dont mind me, but this has been nagging for a few days when i saw mentions of chilaios has no 'canon basis' or along those lines or dont get why its even a thing and its really not that hard? like theres a ton of reasons why someone would gravitate this ship and for myself while i enjoy the height difference alot, its their deep mutual trust and respect that has me vice gripped. idk it seems like more ARE catching onto chilaios and its steady rising so its weird to still insist on its 'crackship' status

right??? it drives me insane. i don't know what the hell happened in modern fandom for people to dismiss ships with plenty of material to work with as having "no canon basis".

i guess it has something to do with fandom's increasing gravitation towards canon being necessary for shipping. in this fandom specifically you can certainly ship farcille by that metric, and like... god, i dunno what else. i assume they're just making shit up about how their ships of choice have a canon basis to make themselves feel better about it. bc at the end of the day, dunmeshi is not a romance, and the only kiss we ever see is from a relationship where one is in love and the other is like "aw, you're such a good friend." (kabru was real mean for that.)

either way, back to chilaios--back in my day (shakes cane), what they have was more than enough for a "valid" ship. so much so that no one would have questioned it except people who hated it. which... is probably true here as well, a lot of the time. like, dismissing a ship you don't like as being meaningless probably feels pretty good if you actually believe yourself.

you know what an actual dunmeshi crackship would be? (throws a dart at the wall) mithrun/dandan. makes no sense, right? they were in the same room maybe once, never interacted, and have no reason to interact. that's what a crackship is. it has no canon basis whatsoever.

crackships and rarepairs can overlap, and often do, but a rarepair can also be something with real canon interactions that just didn't take off in the fandom. chilbell probably still counts as one, though it does have fics and art, so your mileage may vary.

chilaios, then, with an entire fucking 14-volume-manga's worth of interactions, several of which were important specifically to the two of them, is not a crackship, and god knows it's no longer a rarepair either, if it even was back before the anime. (i know there was like, 1 fic on ao3, but the manga was being published for like 10 years so i assume the general fandom was just a lot smaller.)

calling chilaios a crackship is straight up just not true. not what that term means. they have the same amount of canon basis as multiple other popular ships, and imo they have the chemistry to back it up, but even that isn't necessary. all told it's a pretty standard ship. they're friends, there's tension between them but there's also a deep mutual trust, and there are very few chapters where they don't directly interact (either because the chapter isn't about the touden party or bc one of them isn't present).

sorry for rambling. i feel passionate about this, lmao... not even just because it's my otp but because misuse of fandom terms drives me up the fucking wall.

[bi-hop]

kabru

hell yeah

How I feel about this character:

do I need to elaborate-

Okay, beyond that, I find him to be a very fascinating character. I wouldn't even say he was made in a lab for me. I was made in a lab precisely for the sake of spreading Kabru propaganda. He does happen to combine a lot of my favorite traits in a character though. I could personally and happily read a manga just about him.

The reason for this is because he has both a strong personality where you can easily figure out what he wants, how he thinks, what his moral code is, but the ways that his past and environment have shaped him really set him up for so many narrative and textual roles. I don't think I would have predicted "key figure in a growing kingdom, poised to take over an advisory position Eventually TM" when I first started watching and reading Dungeon Meshi for him (... if I had gone into it completely oblivious. which I did not <3), but it works perfectly for him. I want him to be happy. I want him to ride a horse off into the sunset. I want him to gawk at strange and grotesque monsters forever #Okay

All the people I ship romantically with this character: I think if you spend any time on my page or see anything I write, the answer to this is a little obvious, but. yeah, Labru. when they're foils foiling all over the place... when you see yourself reflected in the other and it repulses you a bit but draws you in all the more. when your worries about him accidentally save his life (funniest shit I've ever seen)

I also think a lot about one-sided Kabrin because it's interesting, it's fun, and Rin should get to chase him around with a stick for that kiss scene. however I say this but it's basically canon in that weird Epic the Musical AU I've been daydreaming to while I write this month, so. hm. *shrug*

My non-romantic OTP for this character: his party!!! this is a bit of a cop-out answer because in basically every fic of mine with him (either uploaded or in the works, to be clear), they're his friend group, but it's true. every bonus comic with them is hilarious to me. there's so many bangers. undine pee shower. 'let's get naked' shapeshifter incident. the sea serpent/stung by a bee fiasco. I wish more people would write them in Kabru's life.

My unpopular opinion about this character: I don't really think I have unpopular opinions about him? like, sure, he has his haters. but I feel as though that's a minority. I could be wrong though. I think there should be more art/fics of him growing up, let's say that-

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: honestly, so long as I keep getting Kabru bonus comics with those blu-ray what-ifs next season, I don't have anything in particular to wish for. maybe just more of his childhood? bc I'm always morbidly curious about that part. but I've discussed that elsewhere so that's not a new assertion.

[my-past-disgusts-me]

All I Need Are Things I Like - Izutsumi

Motivation is Dead - Mithrun

every single character in dunmeshi is autistic, but the ones that are most *my brand* of autistic are Izutsumi, Kabru, and Mithrun.

In order we have “I don’t want to do anything I don’t like….but I guess I’ll do it if it’s for the people I care about”

“Every social encounter I’m in needs to be overanalyzed until I’m sure I’m winning it (creating the best outcome possible)”

And “All motivation is gone to do anything even the things I enjoy except for spite and maybe a need to be loved and respected”
