#you know he is the more lenient 'parent' and isn't as strict

[takealookintheback]

just want to see the boys fuck up so bad that Goodween loses his shit (at this point they’re not even bothered anymore by Cotta’s screaming when he scolds them).

Can you do twst child fem reader who always accidentally calls the dorm leaders dad and clings onto them since they miss their dad and isn’t taking the whole separation thing well please??

Suddenly a father

I am so so sorry this took so long!! I do hope you enjoy it <3 I do have a character limit, so I just picked the ones I had an idea for!!

---------------------------------------------------------

Clingy child!reader calls them dad

Characters: Riddle, Vil, Idia

Format: Headcanons

Warnings: none that I can think of

Riddle

-To say Riddle was concerned when a magicless child suddenly appeared is an understatement, and when Crowley decided to let you live in the Ramshakle dorm, on it's own, aside from Grim, the concern doubled.

-So, he pulled some strings, and now you're staying in heartslabyul! 

-Riddle did act similar to a parental figure. He is rather strict, but certainly not as strict as his mother, and while he does try and teach you all the rules, and the consequences of breaking them, he is much more lenient with you. Ace is jealous

-Chances are, you get a tart for every 15 rules you memorize, or if you've been especially good, you'll get a small tart as a reward!

-Seeing like how much he's acting like a dad, that is what your yet to be fully developed brain perceived him as.

-So, you follow him everywhere, like a lost puppy. It confuses him a bit, but he doesn't stop you, as there isn't a rule forbidding you from doing so! Also, he worries about you whenever you leave his line of sight

-When he hears you call him dad for the first time, he's shocked, to say the least! He is still in college, he has yet to get a stable career, find a suitable partner, buy his own house, hE ISN'T READY TO BE A FATHER!! 

-He is frozen in shocked, leaving you to tuck on his sleeve with a questioning look, till Trey gently suggests that the sudden change must be very hard on you, and that Riddle is the closest thing you currently have to a father 

-It's a realization that hit him hard. Once the Realisation settles in, he doesn't correct you when you do- in fact, he now feels like it's his responsibility to take care of you now. Your parents aren't there, the Headmage isn't trustworthy, and he is the housewarden of the Dorm you're staying in! Plus, it's hard to seperate you from him, without upsetting you, so his fate is sealed anyway-

-Not much changes after, just that he is ever so slightly more caring 

Vil

-He was very shocked to see a child at the entrance ceremony, to say the least. 

-Immediately takes you under his wing, no questions asked. He doesn't know why, but something about you tugged on his heart strings

-you get your own room  at pomefiore, and the students of the Dorm take turns babysitting you- but Vil and rook is the first to volunteer if someone can't take care of you on their assigned day!

-Vil would take care of you everyday, but he's a busy man, he has movies to film, photo shoots to do, a dorm to run, ect... but he does try to be there 

-Has posted you on magicamp, but never your face! He'll only post your face once your old enough to decide and consent! Meanwhile his fans are going crazy, trying to figure out if your his little sibling/cousin or if their favourite star is a teen parent!

-You start to run to, and go with him whenever you can, and if he can't take you with him, you patiently wait till he returns, before practically jumping into his arms 

-He is brushing your hair, getting you ready for bed, when you call him dad. 

-he pauses for a moment, taking by shock, before simply continuing on. He knows he is to young to be a father, not to mention to busy. He knows that you most likely have parents waiting for you at home.. yet he can't bring himself to correct you, while you almost fall asleep as he continues brushing your hair. 

-He supposes that, until a way home for you has been found, he can take on a parently role for you

Idia

-He doesn't even realise you're there until the commotion starts, cause, you know, he isn't physically there. When he does, he doesn't know what to do, so he tries to avoid the situation. 

-But you don't let him, being far to fascinated by the floating Ipad, following him around.

-It gets to a point where Crowley decides that you'll stay at Ignihyde under his watch!.. Idia freezes in shock, he doesn't know how to take care of a child!

-At first you're completely under Ortho's control- Half the dorm can't even take care of themselves, and you expect them to take care of a child? Ortho's the only one there keeping you alive.

-Nonetheless, you keep running to Idia, you don't know why either, something about him just feels like home.

-At first the small, clingy you terrified him, but eventually he gets used to you. He lets you stay in his room when you want to and occasionally shares his snacks with you! 

-After you show an interest in Technology, he teaches you the basics, and lets you watch when he builds something! with proper safety regulations, of course! He is gonna end up turning you into an ipad kid

-It is during one of these lessons that you call him dad. He short-circuts, and Ortho has to catch the tool Idia was holding, before it smashes into the machine- 

-Even after Ortho analyses and explains the situation, he is still in a bit of shock with no idea what to do. He very quietly corrects you, but it's barely audible. Meanwhile Ortho is celebrating having a new family member!

-Every time you call him dad, he freezes up for a moment, before quietly correcting you, only to not be heard :) 

Very fun to write, but I’ll be honest, I’m not around children much, so I don’t really know how they act :,) once again, so sorry you had to wait around a month for this request ^^“

Feedback is welcome, just be nice!!

Hope you have a great day/night <3

Best MHA teacher in your opinion?

*puts pedagogical glasses on* i think aizawa is a great teacher :D

i made a pot about this before but let me say it againnnn, while i understand why people like to assign parental roles to the mentors in bnha (and it def isn't that serious to each their own don't kill me), i think it is a bit of a disservice to imply that the role of the mentor has to be "elevated" to a parental one in order to do them justice.

yes aizawa sensei does fill a somewhat paternal role, but i personally think that role is exclusive to Eri. Other than that, I think he is a teacher to the other students and he's great at it :)

I don't think horikoshi did it on purpose but i love that Aizawa sensei has what we call pedagogic tact (he a short definition i found in english, all of my papers on this are in german sorri)

bnha has a lot of moments that emphasize Aizawa's situational awareness & interpersonal skills etc. like while he's a strict and highly consequential teacher who doesn't mince words, he knows when to compromise rules, be more lenient, and communicate with his students on a more personal, intimate level.

I love that horikoshi shows this pretty often through aizawa's body language; Aizawa sensei kneels down pretty often to talk to Eri or Deku like that is so importantttt, he also sits down when he talks to Aoyama idk these small gestures are important when you talk to kids and I like that Horikoshi emphasizes that, too. Aizawa's body language is instark contrast to someone like Endeavor, who intentionally uses his intimidating size and fire to emphasize a power imbalance but back to Aizawa

I also love that he goes easy on Yaomomo early in the manga like why he usually does not hold back because villains wouldn't hold back, either, he clearly prioritizes the long-term goal of strengthening yaomomo's confidence by giving her a sense of achievement like that is his pedagogical tact!

i think he could've handled deku and bakugo's conflict better but i guess he didn't for the sake of plot lmao, would've loved to see him put them in a sports club where they could vent their frustration and feeling in a safe environment lol

i think Aizawa represents a good balance of what makes a good teacher, he teaches with confidence because he's a great hero (expert), is consequential & has great situational awareness etc. (conductor), but he also knows when to compromise his austerity for sake of a more personal, intimate dynamic with his students (pedagogue). he feels very grounded to me i think horikoshi did a good job at portraying a healthy teacher-student relationship because tbh i don't need ever ficitonal teacher to be a pseduo-parent, especially when these kids already have parents lmao

which brings me back to the beginning, the parameters of what make a good teacher aren't the same as the parameters for good parenting, there are big overlaps ofc, but the goal of being a good teacher isn't that your students see you as their mommy or daddy, yes building a relationship with your students is rlly important but there's more than that and I think Aizawa sensei balances those aspects pretty well :D

- Loves baking you treats. He uses his Ma's recipes and it's always delicious.

- Extremely EXTREMELY gentle with you. He'd never let anything happen to you.

- A little too lenient sometimes and has a hard time sticking to rules. He just wants to get you everything you want all the time for you to be happy. But he knows that isn't always the best. He's trying to be more strict but you're just too cute sometimes! When it comes down to your health or safety though, he's real serious.

- Heavily values routine, but everythings adjusted to your ability.

- He loves all nick- and pet names you give him. Just don't call him supes/superman in public hehe.

- He loves calling you nick- and petnames too of course!His favorites being buddy, prince(ss), sweetpea, kid/kiddo, sunshine and love. But he's up to call you anything you'd like!

- Always asks questions to make sure your comfortable. "Do you like it when I call you this?", "Do you want me to hug you, love?", "Is it okay when I tease you? Always tell me if I'm being too harsh, okay prince(ss)?", etc...

- Carries you everywhere you want and in anyway you want. On his shoulders, in his arms, on his back, in one hand even!

- Good at taking care of all kiddos, from infant to teen regressors. One of the best at taking care of rowdy littles as well.

- Praise, praise, praise!!! "Amazing, good job!", "Wow! You're so smart buddy!", "Thanks so much sweetpea, couldn't have done it without you!", "You're such a good kid"

- Loves going places with you. Mostly his parents farm where you get to help feed the animals and collect eggs while he's helping with the big work. But you guys also go to parks, malls, aquariums and fairs whenever you can. You're always on an adventure.

- Speaking of his parents. Both Mrs. and Mr. Kent love you. Their house is so cozy and friendly. They babysit you every once in a while when Clark's busy.

- The absolute best at comforting you. After you'd had a bad day, when your sick, after/during meltdowns. He's calm and collected in these situations and he just always seem to know what you need.

- He's the type who wakes up early on weekends to make you a yummy breakfast. He'd greet you with a "Good morning sunshine!" and a "I made your favorite!"

- Good night stories every night. You often visit the library to find what you'll read this week. He also likes showing you books he liked as a kid.

Hello! I hope you’re doing alright! Is it ok if I ask for the brothers’ reaction to their darling dying during childbirth?

Their attitudes towards their darling’s pregnancy is sort of a mixed bag already which makes me wonder, would they obsess over their child and sort of see them as their last piece of darling or would they hate their child and blame them for darling’s death?

Thank you in any case!

Hello hello anon anon! I hope you're staying cool. I have been sweating like a pig since mid may so even wearing makeup is hard because it runs so much.

As I mentioned before I don't have much experience with this topic so I hope you enjoy it. Let me know if you disagree with me, I'd love to hear your thoughts <3 (AFAB!reader x AMAB!yandere)(grief)(child neglect/abuse)(absentee parent)(18+ readers only please, mdni)[Abuse and neglect are inexcusable in real life. Children always deserve a nurturing, loving home where they feel safe and valued.]

Yandere!Lucifer is most likely going to torment his child as a result, unfortunately. Much like how he treated Belphie in the first game, when he's emotionally overwhelmed he falls back on what is proper and what can be considered as respectable as possible. So he'd be strict with the child and want them to exceed what every other child is doing at the time. However, I don't think he can maintain this kind of mentality. It gets to a breaking point with him where he has to honor his emotions, so I think that once it's clear this isn't working and hurting everyone including him he'd be willing to try and reconsider how he's been dealing with your death and the child.

Also, because he would probably be responsible for children in a few of the below scenarios (lolll), he'd be much, much more lenient and caring with a kid that wasn't his and didn't come from the death of his darling. He'd be a good surrogate father, even if he is a little distant.

Yandere!Mammon would be very, very unwell and probably not able to pay much attention to the child. His typical way to cope is either crying or making jokes about it, but he doesn't have enough tears to cry and can't find a way to laugh at you passing. I think it would take him a few years to be able to be consistently present with the child, but when he did he would try to treasure them as a remainder of you.

Yandere!Levi would probably not want anything to do with the child for five or ten years. They are a personification of his own hell, because they took your attention and presence from him just like he knew they would. He would blame them, I think, but once the child started to reflect your habits and your looks, he would be drawn to them and try to be in their life more. He's pretty negative but not necessarily bitter, so when he eventually tries to bond with the child I think he will be caring and sweet.

Yandere!Satan wouldn't voluntarily give up his child but would likely revert to only being able to feel rage, so they would be taken from him by his brothers. He's not emotionally articulate in the first place so trying to express the massive grief of losing you would exceed his capabilities and just become a lot of destructive, painful wrath. Lucifer will likely parent the baby until Satan can calm down -- and who knows how long that will take? -- but once he was able to be with the child, I think he would really, really do as much as he could for them, researching how to parent and what to do at every point. Even if he doesn't have the words for it, he mostly would see the kid as a testament to his love for you so he'd try to love them perfectly. At first he'd probably be too harsh and too strict, but I actually think he'd course correct sooner than Lucifer would.

Yandere!Asmodeus is the least likely, in my opinion, to end up parenting because I think your death would actually break him. Yan Asmo has managed to smooth over every part of your unhealthy relationship with him by ignoring or reinterpreting it through his delusions, but there isn't really a way for him to be delusional about you being dead. I think he'd be very deeply, personally changed, and it's hard to tell if or how he would recover from it. I think that in the case he did recover he'd be so different from the experience that he'd be rebuilding his personality in conjunction with the kid's development. He probably would never be the same old Asmo.

Yandere!Beelzebub is the most likely of all of them to rise to the challenge and stay parenting the child. Duty is really important to him, considering how seriously he takes protecting Lucifer and the other brothers despite that not being his job any more. He has always imagined parenting a family with you, so if you're not around to make that happen it means he needs to work twice as hard at it himself. Of course, he'd struggle with the grief of it, but your memory would be motivating to him.

Yandere!Belphegor would try his hardest to take care of the child, but he likely wouldn't be able to do it all by himself. He's spoiled and not used to doing anything really difficult, so when he gets really overwhelmed by grief he'd have to rely on the others to help him. Because he'd always be doing his best, as the years passed and the grief became easier to handle, he'd be a better and better dad. I think he's the most likely to use it against the child in an argument when they are older, but he would try to apologize almost immediately (and then probably need help to actually properly apologize).

A little somber, but I hope you enjoyed it!

@annie-handholder rebloged a post I made with some Ursa and Azula art (that does not belong to me, I just got permission from the artist to share it on this platform) and those were the tags, and I'd like to address them.

First of all, there's no indication of Azula being spoiled. Being a prodigy and being praised isn't the same as being spoiled, you are simply getting recognition for the skills you do have that are great and do deserve recognition. To assume that this recognition isn't essential and is actually spoiling a child will only serve to un-motivate them. So Azula receiving praise for being good at stuff is just a normal thing. You try hard and are skilled and you get praise as a reward. This isn't being spoiled.

Being spoiled is to be harmed in character by being treated too leniently or indulgently. This is a definition that I copy-pasted. This definition does not fit Azula. We see Ursa make an attempt to set boundaries and be stern whenever the situation called for it. We even see Ozai tell her to fuck off when she asks for credit for her own plan (which wasn't good parenting, it was toxic as well, but it was the opposite way. If giving your children too much praise is toxic then not giving them recognition at all for their own achievements and ideas is the other end of the rope, and both are toxic. You should find the middle ground and give your children the proper amount of praise).

Additionally, we don't see anything that would imply that Azula is being spoiled with material possessions. We see her get a gift once, but that's all. It's not like she goes around pointing at things she wants and everyone breaks their back to get her that thing. She's not obsessed with material possessions, as you'd expect a spoiled child to be.

Yes, Ozai did not address her bad behavior, in fact, he encouraged it when it didn't affect him personally. But he also nipped it in the bud when Azula did something that annoyed him. And Ursa addressed her bad behavior too. So it's not like Azula grew up spoiled and without rules because her parents let her do whatever she pleased. The problem is that the rules that were in place by Ozai weren't the correct ones. Instead of being a decent dad and person and teaching his daughter to also be a decent person, Ozai just taught Azula to not be a bother to him. And she did do that. So Azula did follow the rules that were in place for her. You wouldn't call a child that follows rules spoiled. At this point, you have to realize that Azula wasn't the problem. She wasn't spoiled. She followed the rules. The problem is that the rules in question were unreasonable. So you can't really blame the child and call them spoiled. You have to hold accountable the people that set those rules in place.

If Azula behaved the exact same way, but the rules she had to follow were the ones society has agreed upon, she'd be a model child. So she's not the problem. She's not spoiled. The problem is that she was playing a version of the game with different rules that the agreed upon, socially acceptable ones. The one to blame in this situation is the one that set her up for failure and taught her to play the wrong version of the game. I'm looking at you, Ozai.

The child isn't spoiled, she follows rules. The problem is the irresponsible parenting. So you can't just go ahead and paint Azula out to be the problem. It's shifting the blame from the irresponsible parents to the misguided child. It's simply not fair.

So if Azula wasn't spoiled, then why didn't she realize Ursa loved her?

Well, that's because Ursa wasn't that good at showing it. I have made multiple posts about how Ursa parented Azula, and so have a bunch of other people. The truth is, while Ursa was strict with Azula when needed, she was too lenient with Zuko, with who she clearly favored and spend more time with. I'm not saying Ursa didn't love Azula, but I am saying that Ursa could have done more to express that love, and then Azula would know it's there.

[twotangledsisters]

What kind of moms do you think Cass and Lady Caine would be?

Well, to be completely honest, I feel like they wouldn't be XD

They'd be cool aunts coming back from journeys at sea with awesome gifts and even cooler stories!

They love sharp objects, dangerous adventures and you know, all the stuff you don't mix with children.

However if they did become parents somehow, like, one of their adventures they find this kid in need of a home and they just know it's their kid and they're gonna love it forever...

I think they'd be maybe a bit too lenient.

Cass grew up with Captain and though she loves her dad, he was too strict and as such she wants to correct that!

Caine knows from growing up alone kids aren't stupid and besides, they're still way more present than either of her parents were able to be so it's good!

I don't think they'd be bad parents, they would love their child and be their protect and supply said child with everything they need including love and cuddles and words of affirmation...

But neither have had the best parenting role-models and that'd cause them to just... lack knowledge in places. I don't think they'd know how to talk to their child adequately or how to handle emotions.

Cassandra remembered Cap teaching Cassandra how not to cry over spilt milk and wants to give her child more emotional freedom but... that doesn't mean she knows the first thing about comforting a child! And telling the kid it's okay to cry isn't actually comfort.

I genuinely think they'd struggle... the kid would learn to wield a sword and a bunch of really neat skills! But there'd definitely be a conversation with their mothers about their shortcomings once the kid is old enough to reflect on their childhood.

Cass and Caine would probably take that conversation to hear though and absolutely strive to do better!

Now animals-mothers???

They are 120% best parents, not a single mistake EVER. They are PERFECT. They have many sweet beloved children who are animals.

[fff777]

Watched Mark, Haechan, and Jaemin on Ddeun ddeun ddeun office with Yoo Jaesuk

You can see people working on their computers outside the door. I guess it's meant to give the show a more casual feel. And it does feel casual. The table is tiny lol.

Not that I am super well-versed in k-entertainment, but I get the sense that Yoo Jaesuk isn't doing as much stuff these days, and he was one of those guys that I felt like I saw everywhere. So I guess it's not unfathomable that he and NCT Dream haven't really interacted.

Lol asking about MBTIs and horoscopes as an icebreaker. This is so cheesy.

Haechan being left out as a Gemini but Yoo Jaesuk knows how to loop him back in lol

LOL Mark feels discriminated against for being INFJ so he just tells people he's ISTJ. Is this some kind of catfishing?

The way Jaemin got quieter and quieter like he was revealing a big secret lol

I didn't know Donghyuck liked taking photos too

Oh Jaemin is going to put on an exhibition :o He's releasing his pictures from the vault! We know he probably has hundreds of them. He mentioned in one of the US trips that only like 10-15% of pictures are usable? (I don't remember the exact %, but it was not high)

The Dreamies are so impressed that Yoo Jaesuk understood the NCT universe. On one hand, I get why it's confusing and if you ask the Neos to explain it, that can fill up more airtime. On the other hand, it is an interviewer's job to research their interviewees. Plus, NCT has been around for so long that NCT being confusing as a gimmick is kind of old. While this show has seemed a little humorous, I don't think it's meant to be over-the-top kind of comedy. So the "NCT is confusing" narrative isn't really necessary for comedy here.

Yoo Jaesuk is really nice to the guys by the way. Mark and Haechan were really nervous so I think it's nice that Yoo Jaesuk is trying to make them more comfortable.

Mark and Jaemin are both the kinds of guys who have to fill up their free time ^^;;

Accidental drooling lmao

I am the same, I prefer meeting people on a 1 on 1 basis. Anything more is too intimidating.

On the flip side, Haechan as the resident E of the group prefers staying at home in his time off lol

This is his explanation

Lol Donghyuck and Mark are both against coffeeshop culture

Mark and his brother got in trouble with their mom for looking at their phones during dinner lol

Donghyuck doesn't like when everyone's on their phones because he likes a boisterous atmosphere but Jaemin explains that being on phones is recharging for introverts

Jaemin prefers phone calls to texts because he likes listening to people's voices :3

Yoo Jaesuk thinks Jaemin is romantic eh >3

Big same

No words lol

What a change of topic

Big oof but he has a good explanation. He knows it's not easy.

New Jaemin lore. He didn't really get into the details (at least not in the English subs), just having said that he left and then came back.

Lol Jaemin and Haechan both confirming that it was because they'd ordered hamburgers

Mark got caught buying Tank Boy at the convenience store and then turned into Mark Boy ^^;;

LOL it was Haechan and a staff who caught Mark buying Tank Boy

Mark's full of questions about parenting eh

LOL Yoo Jaesuk was explaining how as a girldad, he ends up not really scolding his daughter that much while his wife will scold the daughter. But as a boydad, he will scold his son while his wife will be more lenient with him.

Mark: Later in life...if...maybe...later...(I have kids)

LOL Girldad Mark confirmed (but only in the next life)

Lol Yoo Jaesuk and Jaemin are getting DEEP into parenting. Yoo Jaesuk was saying he sees himself in his son so that's why he's more strict with him, not wanting him to repeat his own mistakes. And Jaemin was saying how everything his parents told him ended up being right X'D

Mark: The sky is so pretty~ Haechan: What does that have to do with us? XD

Doesn't surprise me

All the others feel touched that Mark knows that Haechan likes Crayon Shin-chan and Haechan is still figuring out why it's touching ^^;;

Gym talk again X'D

Mark is really excited for Dream () Scape!

All of a sudden? But basically I think Jaemin is a little embarrassed that Mark is so hyped for Dream () Scape and he errs on the side of caution by staying humble.

I think Mark is just really proud of how much work they put into this mini-album :3

Jaemin mentioned how people don't watch TV now so they have to do promos for Youtube shows and do dance challenges XD He's such an old person.

Mark said once you make eye contact, you have to do a dance challenge together ToT so don't make eye contact

Looks like their challenge is similar to Hot Sauce

Aw, we can definitely tell that Mark is really passionate about his work, and I think that comes with age and perspective. Now that he's older, he has more opinions about the direction he wants to take with his work. So his goals are more defined now that he just knows more. And now that he's older and is more skilled, those goals are also more within reach.

Haechan has brought up the graduation system on his own a few times, which is interesting. I love that they're not forced to hide that part of their history because the fact of the matter is that that affected how they grew as a group. And Haechan explains here that there were restrictions on what they could or couldn't do. In this case, Haechan was saying that they didn't release their first album until their fifth year, presumably because Dream was supposed to be a temporary group so it didn't make sense to drop as much investment in anything more than singles or mini-albums. And once Dream was turned into a permanent group and had restrictions lifted, certain goals also became more within reach for Haechan.

LOL Haechan and Jaemin were giggling when Mark said that they had a meeting to talk about how to improve. And apparently it was because it's normally just a meeting to get scolded by Mark or Jisung, which makes total sense because Mark and Jisung are the absolute perfectionists of the group!

Oh interesting, Haechan said that they've been having theese meetings for 11 years, since they were trainees. So it looks like they're like...general meetups for performance review? But now they have more substance and definition since they're actually working on stuff, and also have more opinions.

Aw Haechan sang his audition song :3

Jaemin and Yoo Jaesuk agreeing that you gotta admire yourself sometimes XD

Haechan and Mark say that they admire Jaemin's confidence sometimes :P You gotta know how to hype yourself up! It's probably especially weirdy in the entertainment industry where you simultaneously have people praising you and trashing on you. You have to learn to be confident in yourself through that noise.

So Mark's brother was auditioning for all the groups and Mark tagged along

Mark trying to shoehorn Smoothie into his answer about his concerns XD

I love this though, Mark is so confident that they're going to make a dent with Smoothie

For Liam - thank you!

1. How does your character think of their father? What do they hate and love about him? What influence - literal or imagined - did the father have? 4. What type of discipline was your character subjected to at home? Strict? Lenient? 10. Is your character street-smart, book-smart, intelligent, intellectual, slow-witted? 13. Did they like school? Teachers? Schoolmates? 22. Who are their friends? Lovers? ‘Type’ or ‘ideal’ partner? 25. What are their hobbies and interests? 37. How is your character’s imagination? Daydreaming a lot? Worried most of the time? Living in memories? 40. How is their sense of humor? Do they have one? 46. Is your character tall? Short? What about size? Weight? Posture? How do they feel about their physical body? 49. What about voice? Pitch? Strength? Tempo and rhythm of speech? Pronunciation? Accent?

1. How does your character think of their father? What do they hate and love about him? What influence - literal or imagined - did the father have?

Well techincally, he has two dads, although he tends to call Lucas mom. So I'll answer for the person that he does call dad: River. Liam absolutely loves his dad in every way really. From how he is with Flynn, his mom, and him, and always knowing that no matter what it is, his dad (and mom really) always have time to talk to him about anything. Another thing he loves about River is that he knows he gets honest answers to the things he asks, no matter how silly or out there the questions he has might be. The biggest influence his father has had on him, is probably an understanding that no one is perfect. And to try his very best to have patience with those that cross his path, but perhaps not in the way you would want them too.

4. What type of discipline was your character subjected to at home? Strict? Lenient?

Fairly lenient, they wanted him to explore and learn things on their own. Like having to learn that being a superstars child had some hurdles of its own. He has been allowed to explore what he wants to do, and never felt that he had to follow in either of his parents footsteps.

10. Is your character street-smart, book-smart, intelligent, intellectual, slow-witted?

Liam is fairly street smart, he has learned as he got older to see through those that want something from him, and those that genuinly wants to be his friends. He is also a bookworm, and likes to read, but its more stories than those books you learn a lot from. He isn't the typical super intelligent dragon book worm though, perhaps because his main interrest has always lain elsewhere.

13. Did they like school? Teachers? Schoolmates?

Liam didn't mind school. He liked all his teachers, and he found some good and trure friends there, but he was never into school. He knew what he wanted to be from he was very little, and with that, his interrest in school was only to get through it, to get to his goal.

22. Who are their friends? Lovers? ‘Type’ or ‘ideal’ partner?

His friends are the other kids in his family, and the friend group they have. He has two best friends, that has been his best friend since they met in class. He hasn't really found that special one yet, so far, but for Liam, he needs somene that feels a bit like his dad. Someone he feels safe with, that he can talk freely with, and well, a bonus of course if they love animals and coffee on the side.

25. What are their hobbies and interests?

They blend their hobby and interrest with their work. Like I said, they knew what they wanted to be early on, and while being a shelter helper, the idea of combining his two loves formed in his head. Other than this (sorry, not telling exactly what) he is a very typical dragon who loves to read books. (and of course watch movies)

37. How is your character’s imagination? Daydreaming a lot? Worried most of the time? Living in memories?

Liam is a bit of a worrier, although its something his parents has helped him do less off. He has the same anxiety issues as his mom, just not as bad becasue they have been delt with since they first noticed them. But other than that, he is more in there here and now. Sure he can daydream and imagine up new things, but generally, he is more in the here and now than anything else.

40. How is their sense of humor? Do they have one?

He has River sense of humor to a T, which sometimes drives Lucas to insanity when they get off on wordpuns and just general bullshittery. He loves it really, but two of them can sometimes be a bit to much for Sunlight.

46. Is your character tall? Short? What about size? Weight? Posture? How do they feel about their physical body?

Liam is about as tall as River, so fairly tall. He has a slightly slimmer build than River, which is from Lucas's sundragon side, as sundragons human form are often quite slim and "frail" looking. He also has the characteristic sundragon skin color and hair. Unlike his mom he is comfortable with being a half dragon, so he mostly shows his scales and eyes in his everyday life from a teen and up. Before that he glimmers because its just more comfortable. Their happy with how they look, and pretty proud to be a mix of his parents in every way.

49. What about voice? Pitch? Strength? Tempo and rhythm of speech? Pronunciation? Accent?

Liam is fairly soft spoken, although with friends and family he becomes a bit louder. I would say little like a classicaly trained tenor, but not full opera, to give an idea. Its about the same depth as sunlights, although when he sings, it often would sound a little bit lighter because of the way he sings. He doesn't have any accent, and speaks softly but his prononciation is clear. (yes he has a voice claim for his singing of course XD)

[lilithrebellion]

Mind sharing your thoughts about Krul and Mika’s dynamic? It’s so complicated and muddied thanks to her treatment of him, you can’t help but be intrigued. I also can’t help but notice that she’s a lot nicer to Amaya compared to everyone else but maybe that’s just cause she’s her best solider?

Sure!

Overall, I think Krul has a sort of "tough love" approach to "parenting" Mika. I see her as being strict, but very supportive. In fact, I think the strictness comes from her being supportive, in that she's pushing Mika to succeed in his goals.

In the early flashbacks, Krul's treatment of him does seem questionable since she did force him to become a vampire and talks about how Mika drinking her blood instead of from humans makes him reliant on her like a "dog". But, I also see it as her offering Mika that choice while also being very upfront about the caveats. Because she could have shoved the blood down his throat like when she turned him. But for this scene, she waits until Mika bites her on his own. In a way, she let Mika have what could be considered an informed choice. She's just phrasing it in a vampire-like way.

And while in the beginning, it does seem like Krul is only helping Mika because she needs him for his Seraph gene, I do feel that Krul cares about Mika more than just conveniently using him for her goals. In fact, I think it was made really clear in chapter 96. First, there's a flashback of her training baby Mika. Which, on one hand, does look like she's just one-sidedly beating him up. But you also see that Mika isn't shown as distressed, but determined instead. So much that Krul sounds somewhat impressed at what he's willing to do to save Yuu. And then Mika says he can handle it and asks her to keep going, you get this proud Mama Krul smile.

Plus, the harsh training does make sense. Mika would have understood that he needs to be strong if he wants to save Yuu, and he knows he's not going to get that if he's coddled. Although it's rough, Krul's giving Mika what he wants here.

Same chapter, she comments about how Yuu and gang are dumb (lol) and that if she had raised them, they would have turned out smarter, like how Mika is. Another proud mama moment, in my eyes.

After recalling this, she asks Yuu to prove how serious he is about wanting to save Mika. I'll put the panel again, because it speaks for itself.

Krul is doing this because the idiocy Yuu's been showing has made her doubt his intentions and she wants to know that Mika's care for Yuu isn't one-sided, that he actually cares about Mika in return. She wants to know that Yuu was worth all the suffering Mika went through. Which is, the most blatant protective parent behavior ever. And I don't think she would have bothered with saying this if Mika was just a tool to her.

And besides this, I find that despite the harsh things Krul says to Mika (especially in the earlier chapters), she is surprisingly lenient towards him. Again, with not forcing him to drink human blood. And also with how she encourages Mika's desire to save Yuu. Which makes me think that the harsh statements early on that he "can't defy her since she's his owner" shouldn't be taken literally and actually means "be smart and think this through. I'm not your enemy". In chapter 22 where this takes place, it happened because Mika got mad at Krul for keeping her plans from him. But after saying the above, she ends up whispering it to him anyway. Which, I don't think she'd have done if she actually cared about Mika being obedient. Also I do find it mildly hilarious that Mika goes "I want to run away with Yuu-chan" and Krul's response is essentially "Yes, do it. Go run away with him. That works for me too.👍"

And sidenote. Not sure how canon we want to consider this, but I find this bit from the Shitsuji no Seraph drama cd where Krul is going full mama mode doting on Mika to be adorable.

Now getting into Krul and Amaya in comparison. I also used the "strict but supportive" idea when conceptualizing their dynamic. (Although less "mom-like" with Amaya since she wasn't as young and also already has a mom) Similar to the human blood thing with Mika, Krul is upfront with Amaya about what becoming a vampire means and let her make the decision herself. Plus, when Krul tells Amaya that she should leave after the Ashina battle, it is to protect her from experiencing the pain of being shunned as a monster by the people she wanted to protect if they found out. Of course, she does experience this anyway later on. Krul's intention here is something like "I'm telling you this for your own good, but if you need to find out the hard way then so be it." And when Krul finds Amaya afterwards, I wanted to make sure that her words of comfort didn't come off as too gentle. With how I saw her interactions with Mika, I think she's the type to give the honest truth, even if it's hard to hear and won't sugar coat things. I also find that she values independent thought (from how she's proud of Mika for being smart), which is why I had her tell Amaya to decide for herself what it means to be a vampire.

And mirroring Krul's encouragement of Mika to run away with Yuu, Krul so far has been encouraging of Amaya wanting to protect Yui. However, Krul's support of Mika was partially due to their goals aligning. And without giving too much away, this will also hold true for Amaya and Yui. For now, just know that Krul also has her goal of taking down Karlheinz since she finds him to be an annoyance, and that Amaya helping Yui is currently in line with that goal.

So while yes, Krul is nice to Amaya. And yes, it is partially because she has been a loyal and dependable soldier for about 500 years now. But the main point is that same with Mika, Krul is allowing Amaya's actions because it is also what she wants for one reason or another. As for what that reason is, you'll just have to wait and see.😉

(Low key though, Krul does totally ship it lol)

Day 17

I'm a mom who has a mom, and isn't it true that there are certain aspects of motherhood and daughterhood that give you insight so you can have empathy both for your mother and your daughter?  Let me explain.

When I was a kid my mom would repeatedly tell me: "You'll understand when you have your own kids."  I remember balking when she would say that.  I would fantasize about the kind of mother I would be, and how I would let my kids do this and that, eat this and that, and I would play with them.  There are of course differences between my parenting style and my mom's, but I understand what she meant.  As a parent, you are juggling so many tasks, decisions, cares; your child doesn't understand why you have to say no to what  to them seems like a very reasonable request, but for you it is just too much to add right now.

I sometimes say "no" or "let me think about it" or "maybe some other time," not because I can't comply with what N- is asking, but because I simply do not have the mental energy to make another decision right now.  By the end of the day, I have made so many mini choices, from the order in which I'm going to go about my work for the day, to what I'm going to feed myself and my daughter, to how I'm going to respond to messages and texts, to how I should word a certain phrase, so any additional question feels like the drop that overflowed the bucket.

On the other hand I remember how disappointing it was when I was little and it seemed like my mom was always busy, so I tend to, if she wants to play together, suggest Lego; I used to build multicolor houses with her with her Duplo, but now she's moved on to Lego at her age.  Her dad paints miniatures, and he enjoys painting with her.  N- used to try to get me to play with her MLP or her LPS figurines, but she has a friend who enjoys doing that a lot more than I do, so now I'm off the hook.

I want to create pleasant memories for my daughter, the way my mother did for me.  What I remember the most is when my mother and I would chat in the evening, when both of us were relaxed, and she would get me talking by asking me questions.  I do my best to replicate that.  I honestly think the best gift a parent can give is time.  Time and peace.  And to have a peaceful home environment you need inner peace yourself, which means keeping stress at bay, which can be easier said than done.

I'm generally pretty calm, but I do let certain feelings and emotions build up until they are released in a short, sharp burst of harsh words.  When that happens, I apologize as soon as I can.  And you know how amazing N- is?  She is so forgiving.  She does not hold onto a grudge.  She sees the best in people, and when she forgives, she forgets.  The only time this proves a challenge for her is when someone she loves is wronged.  To me that proves her loyalty.

Many people considered my parents strict.  The way I would describe my upbringing is that they had standards and requirements, but they also encouraged me to learn and take on responsibility.  At times I felt like I wasn't given sufficient freedom, but I think my mom especially was very protective.  I think N- is far less sheltered than I was, because her childhood has been vastly different from mine.  And since she is so creative, I do give her a lot of breathing room.  I encourage her to draw in her sketchbooks and on the computer, to animate, to compose music, and to write stories.

I used to feel guilty that I seem incapable of providing N- with the same structure I grew up with, but I realize now that S- and I are not bad parents just because we let N- have a messy room, which I was never allowed.  I don't really command N- to do things, I remind her and I make suggestions, but I don't enforce.  Of course there are rules that she has to follow, and she has responsibilities, and she's going to accumulate more as she matures.  I wouldn't call us lenient, I would call us relaxed.  And N- is far from rebellious, and she likes to take initiative.  The other day she completely cleaned her room, from the floor to her bed to her desk, without being told.

You know the saying "When I say "Jump" you ask "How high?"?  I've never liked it.  I feel like if our children feel they can communicate freely, and ask the reason for certain rules and regulations, it will make it easier for them to follow direction.  I think the reason N- went ahead and impulsively cleaned her room is that she agrees with me, and a living space that is neat and clean is good for mental health.  I don't need my home to be pristine, I just like a certain amount of order, and I like pretty things all around, from the pile of books on the end table to the scented candle and teacup on the table.

I think the most important quality I can cultivate as a mother is empathy.  And I need empathy as a daughter as well.  Those regular chats I used to have with Mom?  I still have them, just over the phone.  Today she called me and poured out her heart about something that had upset her.  All she needed was a listening ear and some comforting words and I was happy to provide those.  Every human has a unique perspective, and I think it enriches everyone when that perspective is shared, and it enlightens us to one another's point of view.  Within reason of course, there are some disagreements that are unavoidable

I sometimes wonder how close N- and I will be after she leaves our home.  Will she call me every day like I call my mom?  Will she live nearby enough that I will be able to invite her over for dinner regularly?  She's turning thirteen soon, which means she'll have Instagram.  I can't wait to tag her in posts and send her memes.  I remind myself every day to treasure the time I get to spend both with my daughter and my mom, because life is fleeting, and change is inevitable, so from tears to laughter, just being together is precious.  All of it.

Character solidifying: 4, 17, and 35?

Thank you! <3

-

4. What type of discipline was your character subjected to at home? Strict? Lenient?

It was more like.. lack of discipline. Vaughn had no one to shape him. No one to give him rules to follow. Vaughn was actually a little shit growing up, because he had no one to help him learn right from wrong. Not until his teenage years. He has a looooot of resentment for the Bakker's. He needed someone to be there and shape him into a good kid, since his parents were gone, but he didn't really have anyone to look after him until he got older.

-

17. Did they travel? Where? Why? When?

Vaughn loves to travel, it's one of his favorite things. Even if it's just traveling down the road to a new destination. he loves being out and about exploring places and being somewhere new.

Being a nomad, he traveled a lot when he was in the Bakker clan. Pretty much went to every state, even out of the country once, he was in Japan briefly. It's a lot of fun for him, it makes him happy.

-

35. Do they always rationalize errors? How do they accept disasters and failures?

He pretty much just accepts defeat right than and there. He isn't one to rationalize something if he knows he fucked up or something is wrong, he has no problem admitting his error. He doesn't even like the word failure actually. He knows if he tries again he will get it right and it was never a failure to begin with, just keep trying.

Parent headcanons for Upa please!

Sure thing!! The smol boy needs more loveee

* * *

🧘🏻‍♂️ Upa as a Parent Headcanons 🧘🏻‍♂️

One or two kids would be enough for him, and he doesn't care much about what gender they are

Not too keen on the idea of parenting the first time you bring it up. He's very hesitant and doesn't quite feel the want for it at first

He has to think about it for a while, and it takes a few months, or close to a year, before he finally agrees to start trying for a baby

For someone who wasn't too excited about the concept of family, he's extremely protective of you during your pregnancy

If someone as little as looks at you the wrong way, you'll have to quite literally hold him back from Qigonging their ass

Isn't too lovey dovey on your baby bump, but when he does feel the baby kick, he stares in silent admiration and makes some quiet comments on how they're already so strong

Is immediately wrapped around your baby's finger the second he holds them. Not that he'll admit it.

If you make any comments on how cute he's being with your baby he'll try- and probably fail- to make an embarrassed comeback

"Stop looking at me like that.. it's not cute!"

Watches the baby like a hawk almost 24/7 during the first few months. Just as protective of the baby as he was of you while you were pregnant, if not more so

Definitely threatens people that want to hold or get close to the baby with an "If you hurt them, I hurt you ten fold" sort of nature. Unless he trusts them- then he's more lenient on the threat.

He can be cold and harsh at the best of times, but with those he loves, he's very soft and loving when he wants to be. This especially applies for you and your baby

Is more playful and sweet with them in private and gets embarrassed if anyone- especially you- catches him

Definitely a more strict parent, who ensures the little one does as they're told and doesn't go doing anything stupid. Likely a "Be back before so and so" type of parent when they're old enough to be out and about

Takes your kid under his wing as a Qigong deciple and does his best to teach them everything he knows

You'll often find the two meditating together, sparring, and every now and then you might catch Upa lecturing them about doing something incorrectly with the training

They also play Mahjong and tend to Upa's cactus and other plants gifted from his family in spare time

He may be strict and sometimes cold, but wants what's best for you child and does his best to be a good parent

[amporella]

i agree with you that they would be good fathers, but what kind of good dads would they be? personally, my headcanon is that kyle is pretty strict and overprotective (*cough* not unlike shelia *cough*) while stan is more lenient with them. i understand those was basic as fuck, so i could like to hear yours if you’re willing to. regardless, i’m hope you and everyone else has a splendid day/afternoon/night~

I spent a few days sitting on this ask and trying to think of a few more details about exactly what kind of dads they would be, but I think you're pretty spot on! Regardless of what kind of parent Stan is, I think that it's a safe bet to say Kyle is going to end up pretty close to Sheila 2.0 - though I think you could really make a case for whether he's calmer or even more overbearing depending on how the rest of his life goes.

Kyle would probably be a lot like Sheila in the sense that his overarching goal is to protect his kids from harm, and that he really feels a passionate need to drive his own moral values into his kids - and that's not necessarily a bad thing, but in the process it kind of stifles the kid, as Sheila's obviously shown to Kyle. However, Sheila is in general a great mom, and I have no doubts that Kyle would be a great dad! His paternal/fraternal instinct is insanely strong, and he really takes to parenting/taking care of kids like a fish to water - and in Help, My Teenager Hates Me!, he's the only kid to really seek out alternative solutions when his parenting style doesn't work. When faced with trouble, he's willing to admit defeat in the regard that he's willing to try alternative solutions, and he does so quicker than Sheila - Sheila eventually gives in after seeing the consequences of her actions in the movie, but it definitely takes a little longer. That obviously isn't a completely accurate vision of Sheila's parenting skills - that's only one instance, and an instance where she had much more of a (albeit a semi unreasonable) reason to fear for Kyle's safety/health - but I think it's definitely notable that Kyle's learning that skill quicker than his mother did, probably as a result of her being so stubborn in admitting that she's wrong. However, I think Kyle would be more 'strict' than Sheila in other ways - I imagine him having a pretty strict vetting process for his kids' friends, following how much Cartman put him through as kids, and you just know that would drive any kid insane and probably drive them towards less healthy friendships. However, even if he’d be strict about friendships, Kyle’s love for his kids really is unconditional - like Sheila, I think he’d be very accepting about the things that are important to them, and he wouldn’t be afraid to express that. 

In general, though, I think Kyle would be amazingly solid, whether as a single dad, with someone else, or with Stan. He's got the drive to protect his kids, and that drive is one of the things that makes Sheila one of the best parents in the show - not that she has a ton to compare to, but her desire to keep Kyle safe always shines through, and Kyle always knows it. I think Kyle and his own kids could butt heads similarly to how him and Sheila do so on the show, but I also think that being married to Stan in this situation would help him parenting-wise - Stan's equally as protective (I can actually imagine him being more in some situations, or at least there's a sharper contrast between how he behaves normally and how he behaves in situations were protectiveness is really warranted), but expresses it in a way that can seem less overbearing, and I imagine he'd be able to help diffuse arguments in a way that Gerald generally fails to do.

Stan, I think, is a little (less? more? I typed out less originally but then wrote even more for him lol) complicated parenting-wise - though that doesn't mean he's any less of a good parent. Stan would be less likely to create a divide between himself and his kids when they're 8-12 and finally discovering themselves, which is when Kyle would probably have a hard time realizing that his kids are growing up - but he could be more likely to have a difficult time when they're teenagers. Stan really wants to know that his hard work is being appreciated - that, like in the teenagers episode, his kid is actually doing something to prove that his parenting is working - and I can imagine him being a little bitter and adopting the 'fine I'll go f/ck myself' mindset when his teenagers start becoming naturally distant. Kyle's rational enough to realize that just trying and trying to bond might not be enough, and there are different ways to address issues at different stages of life (cue the teenager book), but I think Stan wouldn't understand this at first, even though he obviously underwent that significant life change at a younger age than Kyle did (YGO/Ass Burgers). I think he'd eventually get the hang of it though - and when he realizes that teenagers being unappreciative assholes is just a natural part of life, he'd be able to adapt to bond more effectively with them. His experience with depression at a young age would probably actually help him with this - I think he'd be more likely to be the parent that the kids turn to when they want a good cry, or when they have something deeply personal that they want to share. Kyle is adored and trusted by the kids, but Stan's a better listener, and if you just want to sit on your dad's lap and tell him about the sh/tty kid in your class without having your dad threaten to go in and kill them, Stan's your guy. Stan's more relaxed parenting style requires a little more maturity in the kids, and that's probably one of the places where Stan and Kyle clash - Kyle, subconsciously or not, wants to keep his kids under his wing for as long as possible, while Stan wants them to leave the nest and flourish into unique individuals. Neither of these are bad things, and it's already been shown that the two of them function really well when acting as parents together. They would probably temper out each other's less effective parenting styles, and I have no doubt they'd be able to raise some really sweet, well adjusted kids.

Thank you for the ask!! I could talk about style parenting forever. I hope you're having a good day too!! <3

Hiiiiiii 🌻👋

Do Addi and Alex ever have disagreements concerning the way they parent their kids? It seems like Addi would be a more cautious and strict parent, whereas Alex seems like he would be more lenient.

Hiya Sunny🌻babe!

I hardcore agree with you. Alex is the more lenient of the two. America is really good at creating helicopter parents. Like, I feel most people are helicopter parents here... or at least the ones I see and am around. And Alex is a little closer to that Scandinavian myth (is it a myth or is it true?) of parents leaving their kids in strollers on the sidewalk and them being fine. And those are two very opposite ends of the spectrum, and neither are wrong, but it's all about geography, right?

I would not condone anyone leaving their child unattended in a stroller on a sidewalk anywhere in America. Don't be doing that. The sheer mass of people here means you're likely in the vicinity of a murderer or sex offender at any given moment. Now, if you're in Iceland or Finland... hey, maybe it's a hell of a lot safer there to leave your kid in the fresh air while you run in to get a coffee or something. I don't know. I would never do that, regardless of country. But I'm a product of my environment.

As are Addi and Alex.

I don't think these disagreements ever get too heated or detrimental. They have the same values and are on the same page about how they want to raise the kiddos, they just have different paths to the same end goal, you know? Both want their kiddos to be strong, thoughtful independent people. Alex's path for that is letting them jump on the couch, and if they fall and hurt themselves, they'll have learned a wonderful lesson about their boundaries on furniture. Addi's path is to make them stop jumping on the couch to avoid any potential injury, and then talk to them about why jumping on the couch isn't allowed.

Both are very valid ways of parenting. One is simply avoiding risk, and the other is allowing risky play. Risky play can be good for kids. They quickly learn their own boundaries. They learn to listen to their bodies. This isn't to say that Addi's against risky play. She'll let them climb trees and jungle gyms, and hand upside down from monkey bars. She just doesn't want them jumping on her goddamn furniture 😅

[tnbc-thoughtsandheadcanons]

I saw an anonymous asking about LSB as parents, and I also came to think about this. I have heard different ideas about them as parents, but one thing I wondered is Lock the strict one of the three? Some say Shock would be the stern one while many think Lock would be the stern one. Personally I think Lock would be the stern one while Shock or Barrel would be more easy-going. Lock is the leader of the trick-or-treaters, and he does get upset if he isn't in charge or being disrespected, so I think he would be the one to have rules and want his kids to behave, and he seems to be the brash one in the trio, though I might be wrong.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you have any headcanons about this?

Regarding this ask.

You bring a good point, anon! Thank you for your contributions to this headcanon/idea! This is all so interesting!

Your HCs make sense to me..! Lock would probably be more stern/strict, wanting to be in absolute control with his children & always have the upper hand. Since he’s a demon in my HC, he’s a force that shouldn’t be reckoned with..! Although I think he’d have a troublesome influence, raising them to be pranksters and delinquents(like he was at their age!). Although they would respect their father, they’d likely inherit his brash attitude.

I think Barrel would be the most lenient, letting his kids have sweets and junk-foods. He would also teach them how to be great trick-or-treaters, getting the most candy on Halloween! I see him being kind and loving of his children, proud of them if they uphold is trick-or-treating record..! He’d want to be a positive change compared to how Oogie Boogie treated him, never wanting to be too harsh or unkind. He might spoil them, but knows where to draw the line..!

Shock is probably not *as* easy-going as Barrel, since she has a short temper and sometimes punishes them a little severely. But she’s very protective, and would unleash her wrath if anyone ever bullies or picks on her kids! I think all three of them would be good at catching their children in a lie(especially if they try to cross their fingers behind their backs like they used to!) They would know if they’re ever up to no good since they grew up with a similar mischievousness.
