A series of scenes I wanna work on for a while after their Propnight collab ˇˇ

I know it's late to post here... The reason is that I'm worrying if it's appropriate or acceptable to share the kinda fanworks on tumblr at the very beginning, but anyway I'm here so _(: _ㄥ)_

Also post on my plurk / twitter / instagram, if you find the same pieces on the above sns, yeah they're all my accs.

Bonus rough sketch bcs I truly loOOove fuu-chan and his cool, cooler, coolest megane uwu

Their ages in my hc

🔴>36; 🟡>12; 🟠>10

🟣>32; 🔵>8

Basically a cheesy romance telling two single fathers with their kids respectively meeting each other and then being together and finally living a happy life ~THE END~

How about Estonia and Iceland for the ship meme💙🤍

I answered this one previously, but I will copy and paste it here! :D

(Thanks for the ask!)

EstIce:

when I started shipping it if I did: This is a pairing I started shipping more recently than others in this ask. I think it was like...back in 2014 that I started shipping these two, though I didn't really think about them much other than 'ooh, they'd be a nice ship'. However, a few months ago, I started thinking about them as a ship again, and I ended up having tons of headcanons for their friendship (and a potential eventual romance). Especially after reading the 'Ice's Birthday' comic again. (Like...Eduard...why did you wink at him?? XD.)

my thoughts: I honestly think they'd work well together (as either close platonic friends, or romantically). Both are older teens** (in human age, I mean) dealing with past trauma (though I need to research more about Ice's before I can write about his more accurately). Also, both their families/close friends are in the same friend group (hooray for the NB8!), so it's natural they'd interact. Also, and this is more of a headcanon, I see them both as ace, so they'd relate to each other about that, too.

What makes me happy about them: They're two of my favorite characters!

What makes me sad about them: I see them as people who keep their emotions, especially negative emotions, bottled up. (Until they finally hit their breaking point and everything spills out, and it's not pretty.) I do see Ice reaching the point of tears a bit easier than Eduard. (Since I see Eduard having the opinion that if he [Ed himself, I mean X'D] cries, especially around others, he's showing weakness, and, due to past trauma, he absolutely doesn't want to show any sign of weakness. So if Eduard does cry around someone, he A. trusts the person completely, or B. is dealing with something so horrible that he just can't hold the tears back.)

things done in fanfic that annoys me: -deep breath- I am so sick of the 'Eduard-the-wannabe-Nor.dic' thing. I hate hate hate it, especially when I see it in fics. And ESPECIALLY when said fics either make Ed into a creepy stalker (umm, no? These are his friends, remember?? D:< ) or that the Nor.dics hate him/talk about him behind his back. This is the fastest way for me to backspace out of a fic featuring Eduard. -rant done-

things I look for in fanfic: Ed being close friends with the Nor.dics AND his fellow B.altics (NB8!), angst/hurt-comfort, Ed and Ice dealing with their trauma.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: For Eduard, other ships I like with him are: DenEst, EstLiet, FinEst, AmeEst EstMona (does anyone else ship this? I barely see it around, and while it seems like a crackpair, I think their personalities work well), EstLat* (*this one in the platonic sense, I mean, but I am still putting it on here because I like fics where they have a close bond) For Ice, other ships I like with him: IceLat (it is so rare but it works historically, and I think they'd get along well??), IceSey, IceLiech, HongIce (this last one I prefer platonically, but I am warming up to it as a romantic ship, too)

My happily ever after for them: Basically Ivan leaving them both the hell alone. :/

who is the big spoon/little spoon: I don't really see them cuddling like this, (esp. since I headcanon neither of them liking a lot of physical affection), but if they did: big spoon: Eduard, little spoon: Ice

what is their favorite non-romantic activity: sitting outside together, just silently enjoying nature. (And for something a little less old-man ish, I see them enjoying watching movies together, and both making snarky comments while watching like...a romcom Alfred recommended to them or something XD)

**I see many people aging the characters (esp. Ed) up, which is totally fine, and I definitely see why they do. However, I stick with the canon ages, and combine aspects of those human ages with a certain level of maturity, given the fact that they are immortal and centuries old. However, for characters whose human ages are sixteen and younger, such as Ice and especially Raivis, I tend to write their mentality skewing younger in general (though of course they have moments of maturity as well). Eduard is in a grey area, for me, because he’s caught between ‘teenager’ and ‘young adult’. Because of this, and due to his immortality, this is why I have no issue shipping him with Toris, Den, Alfred, or Fin, but I also ship him with Ice, too. (Though, the is why I really only ship Ed with Den and Fin in the canon nationverse. For human AUs, I lean towards him with Ice, Mo.naco, Toris, or Alfred, since their age gap is only one year (for Ice) and two years (for Toris and Alfred). Mo.naco wasn't given a human age, but I am assuming she's around 16-17 as well? Maybe 18?

i feel satisfied.

extra contents↓

the comments situation is kinda like

"Eduard, it's your turn." "Ah, okay. Oh, and the hair dryer is in the dresser, also you could take other stuff in my room if you need them." "Got it. Takk." "Then it's my shower time..."

*Eduard humming & closing the door* *Emil unplugging his phone & laying in bed* *new notifications from insta*

"?!??!!? Holy Sh*t I forgot that's his acc..."

*1. Nor's username in the beginning is @/trolllukas *2. Ice's username is a combination of "woolly willow" and "Emil Willow". His name is from my human AU headcanon: Emil Viðjusson (matronyms) > his mom's name Viðja is "withy" in Old Norse > so if he's abroad and doesn't wanna explain his name in detailed he'll call himself Emil Willow Woolly willow (Salix lanata) is a willow native in Iceland. Emil also uses the pun to joke his temper.

also here's the updated single ver. the original post's here

and here's those tiny pfps in low completion if anyone is interested in
