#How Much is a Human Worth? Plenty (headcanons)

[ozzgin]

Hello, i wanted to ask you for a part 2 about the female predator from earth.

I wanted to know if you could write about the courting process with which male ? The gifts, show of power, that they are capable of producing and protect pups ... And one day reader has her first heat because before she didn't have potential mate. She's all sweet, affectionate and vulnerable, and that is total opposite of the typical female in heat who is dominant and fight her partner. How ours sexy hunters react and do ???

And expect me to soon ask a part 3 with a pregnant female 😁.

Bye, thanks for reading this.

Assuming the courting happens simultaneously I have a feeling it’d end in a bloodbath, so the harem shall be at distanced intervals for the time being.

Various Predators x Predator! Reader Headcanons: Courting

Featuring the previous Predators (Feral, Elite, Bad Blood and Berserker) but with a more detailed description of their courting process. Time to pick your baby daddy. TW: Dubious consent again.

Part 1: Meeting

Part 2: Courting

Part 3: Mating

Feral Predator is the most respectful and approachable of the lot. After all, he’s the one that introduced you to your lost heritage. His communion with nature and tradition shapes his beliefs of sacred respect towards the opposite gender. You’re the bringer of Life and his purpose is to serve you. He enjoys impressing you with his agile hunting prowess. He has perfectly adapted to Earth and if you desire to remain here, he is the only one that can provide for you. But don’t rush to assume he wouldn’t do well anywhere else. His blood is that of noble survival, relying on raw, primitive instinct and intelligence. He is not bound to technology or modern aids, just pure skill. Your lineage will have its success guaranteed under his watch. Feral Predator is briefly taken aback upon seeing your sudden affection, but he’s quick to figure out why you’re acting like this. At this point he may know your body even better than you do. No worries, he will show you the ropes. He will lead everything.

Elite Predator would very much like to simply scoop you up and return you to Yautja Prime. Though spending the rest of his life with a resentful wife doesn’t sound too fun, so he’ll have to make an extra effort to convince you. What do you even need convincing for? Truly, it must be your human background that stops you from seeing the obvious facts. He hasn’t been ranked Elite for nothing. He’s a veteran of the battlefield and has proven his worth plenty of times. You cannot possibly find someone better when it comes to guarding and training the offspring. He’s ready to put an end to your stubbornness when he notices your abrupt neediness. This it not how it usually goes and he’s unsure of how to proceed, but maybe this will serve as the final proof that you must choose him as your partner. Do yourself a favor and accept the given truth. There’s no one else for you.

The fugitive Bad Blood isn’t one to care much for approvals. Or morals, for that matter. Your protests are mere foreplay to him, although a little bit of compliance every now and then wouldn’t hurt. In that case he doesn’t mind threatening you with the lives of your little human caregivers. So you can be good and agree that he’s the best choice for a partner, or he himself can help you with your reluctance. Give you a little push. Oh, don’t make that face. Your parents would’ve agreed! There’s a whole universe to explore and you’re held back by pitiful attachments to creatures that don’t even matter. Once you accept him as your mate, you won’t need anything else. That’s a promise. It’ll be you, him, and the future sucklings as proof of your bond. There’s a reason he’s managed to survive for so long all alone: he’s strong. So really, it’s better to have him on your side rather than your opponent. Especially when you’re so vulnerable.

The Berserker doesn’t need to rely on threats or persuasion. He prefers to let his raw power and aggression speak for themselves. He knows that you can tell the difference: he’s a different breed altogether, stronger and bigger. Why would you willingly settle for less, when you can have the best of the best? You wouldn’t deny your future younglings the superior genes of survival. If you become his mate, you’ve sealed your success whether on Earth or any other Planet. As much as he enjoys your feisty, stubborn side, he finds your heated clinginess an addicting stroke to his ego. Your displays of affection are borderline pathetic, but that’s fine because it’s for his eyes only. See, you have the privilege of being as vulnerable as you wish with him as your protector. So go ahead and beg for his attention. He’ll be happy to comply.

This is random and i’m not sure if you’ve talked about it before but do you personally believe that ginger is a virgin(?) I see him as someone too driven by his own goals (for now) and I think he’d wanna do something that intimate with someone he truly cares about or maybe after marriage (family small village guy) but then again anything is possible. This is for fun anyway~ Most fanon sees him as a playboy while most fans see him as an awkward virgin. Him being a playboy is a possibility i’d never believe though

character sexuality headcanons lets goo ^^

the thing with the boy is that he doesn't attach human meanings to things

that would apply to sex too. he'd treat it with the same weird fae logic with which he treats everything else

so I don't believe him to be the playboy type. playboys are in it for the feeling of power more than for sex (you can tell it by how they get confused or even offended when the girl is only interested in sex too), and he's canonically not interested in power

(the difference between strength and power is what this fandom consistently gets wrong)

personally I don't believe him to be the type of virgin you describe either (although it's not technically OOC). intimacy? what's that? in the game he keeps even loved ones at arm's length. marriage? why would he care

I assume he'd also have plenty of opportunities for something casual, as someone stuck in the military from teen years. he'd need a convincing reason for not taking them out of curiosity at least

other than that anything is possible, I have multiple different headcanons about this guy

battlesexual aroace Childe? perfection

someone who tried a few times and decided that sex was boring and not worth it? my personal favorite

hypersexual with lots of partners but not in a "player" way? sweet and hilarious and absolutely possible too. there's a lot of sex to be had if you just treat people normally and don't expect much from them

I do think he's awkward and a bit detached, he isn't good with human connection in general. he also seems to me like a guy who would have an easier time connecting with others through kink

these are all personal headcanons, of course

[danieyells]

I can also see Romeo straight up setting a glory hole, tying your knees to your chest and shoving your ass in a hole. Basically renting the mc by the 15 minutes and bc he hates the mess and it would be annoying to send someone to clean every few hours so he is strict about condoms, tho if someone paid a few hundred dollars he might look the other way

Re: Sold by Sinostra(Frostheim edition) mini headcanons because i guess i have to give these a name i can remember

Oooh absolutely. Just shove them in a box so he doesn't have to look at them crying and being a disgusting hole, plus less mess! Although as far as cleaning goes i imagine a lot of it is just like. One of his goons comes in with a hose and sprays them down. Or there's some sort of anomaly that he sends in that cleans all the mess up, like an akaname. But I think 'if you don't want to use a condom you'd better pay a lot more' would also be very in character, no matter what you're allowed to do to the pc. Mortkranken has medicine if you have problems.

And since @jadeleechsupportgroup and @dewstickynotes said who they wanted next. . .

Sinostra! As you can see I've got ADHD that's so bad that it took me damn near a month to do something as small as this, so please do not stay up all night waiting on it lol. maybe Hotarubi next since you both also said Haku.

romeo got two since he's the catalyst for this scenario--or maybe just because i had two distinct things in my head for him. i don't remember what my initial idea for taiga was which is bothering me.

As Romeo is the one selling you, the opportunities are plentiful. But if he likes you a lot, he'll treat you very well. You feel more like an oiran the way you're pampered and dressed and only sold to people Romeo doesn't think will treat you too crudely. Not to speak of the price he sells your body for--as if you're a luxury good, not an indebted whore! He dresses you himself, making you up to his standard with makeup and skin treatments. After you're bathed(whether by yourself or a trusted underling) you sit at his feet in the VIP room, bare naked, like a pet, until he's ready to tend to you. He complains about how much of his time you're taking up, but he seems to enjoy treating you like a doll. "See? This isn't so bad, right? You'll be able to pay me back in no time this way!" After an hour of sitting nude at his feet, Romeo finally acknowledges you, stroking your head. His underlings bring a selection of clothing he must have ordered them to retrieve, and he stands you up as he decides what to put you in. An expensive-looking box of make up is placed on the table, but he turns your head to face his mocking expression before you can see the branding. "It would certainly have been better if you'd only paid what you owed, but you've done a good job so far of making the money back. Of course, I'm pricing you at far more than you're worth--so how about you say 'from the bottom of my heart, thank you for making me worth something, Romeo' for me?"

On the other hand, Romeo could want you all for himself if he likes you in a different way. For you to be handled by the filth out there when you ought to be his. . .in the end he wouldn't be able to take it. Once your fate was sealed he would tell you he needs to gauge how much you're worth. He knows most of the auction room customers who're out to purchase other humans are out for sex--so he'll have to evaluate your body and your performance. "Do well, or you'll be here even longer." But this 'evaluation process' seems to take quite a while. He examined your body like you were a dog at a show, and you blew him and cockwarmed him while he worked, sitting idly by when he didn't want you to touch him. When his underlings frustrated him, he threw you down and used you until he wasn't so angry anymore. You knew he punched walls and slammed tables, but you somehow didn't expect the spankings or the rough pounding. Somehow you got scolded over the bruises he gave you. "I've made a decision." He announced after his workday seemed to be over and he'd finished counting the casino's profits. "I think you'd pay off your debt to me better personally. So you'll be my property, for me to do with as I see fit, until I've decided you've paid me back. I tell you what to do, and you say 'yes, sir' or 'yes, Fico'. Got it? No backtalk, no bitching, and no questions! . . .If we're alone, I'll even let you say 'yes, Romeo.'" He talks as he leads you through the halls and to a room--his bedroom, by the looks of it. He sits in a similarly fancy chair to the one in the VIP room, and gestures to his feet, where it seems you'll be sitting more often for a while, then lifts your chin with the tip of his shoe. "Why don't you you start with showing me how thankful you are that I'm not making you a common whore, used by the rodents outside? I think that's worth a little worship, don't you?"

You'd think Taiga wouldn't remember you well enough to get you out of this, but the way he coos "here, kitty, kitty" at you to beckon you to the bars of your cage to pet you says otherwise, as does the way he asks, more to Romeo than you, "what's my little kitty cat doing in a cage, huh?" But the cold and empty look in his eyes also tells you something important--he is hungry, and the tight grip on the back of your neck when you try and back away doesn't inspire much hope that he doesn't intend to use you to solve that. His underlings pay Romeo, and Taiga unlocks your cage himself before he parades you through the casino, despite your state of undress, to bring you all the way back to his room where his goons take their places guarding outside the door and you are shoved onto his bed and easily held down with a single hand against your chest. "You really wandered into some deep shit with your debt like that, huh! Lulu would've had you in there forever if I didn't come along and save ya! Y'know how literally you'd've been fucked if not for me?" He laughs, moving away from you to open the curtain to his torture room. "So, what should we play with today, little stray kitty? Then again, I'm gettin' pretty hungry. . . ." He takes up and admires a rather nasty looking knife. "But if I ate you right now, I wouldn't be getting my money's worth. . .you get what I mean? You weren't cheap, so you're gonna have to entertain me a little, kitten." He puts it away, retrieving his pistol and aiming it towards the ceiling. "I got an idea! How 'bout I be the cat today. . .and you be a little mouse. And all you gotta do is get off this ship before I catch you. . .I won't even have my mooks stop you from runnin' and hidin'. I'll give you a head start, too! Between that and how hungry I am, you can get out of here, right? Oh, but if I catch you. . .you cost a real pretty penny, like a real purebred kitten. . .so let's hope I can get as many meals outta you as you were worth." A click. A bang. Shattering glass and a pop and sparks before the room is shrouded in darkness. The doors slam open, Taiga's underlings bursting in in alarm at the gunshot. Your opportunity for freedom is marked only by Taiga's voice. "You've got 30 seconds."

"Vice Captain, this could easily be prosecuted as unlawful imprisonment under Article 220 of the Penal Code." Ritsu explains, gesturing towards you in your cage. "As far as this contract goes, the consent towards confinement has been retracted. I must advise that you return their clothing and allow them to leave the room." It's surprisingly easy to convince Romeo to yield under threat of law--although Ritsu only requires that you're released and ignores any other occupied cages in the room. As for your debt, Ritsu has already prepared a contract for you, allowing him to pay it off for you, subsequently making him your creditor. As you work with and are frequently paid by Ritsu, part of these paychecks will simply be withheld. . .it's a very thoroughly written contract, which you sign as it will keep you out of Romeo's 'private office'. An NDA is also procured for further discussion of this particular incident. "It would have been preferable if you had informed me of this debt of yours beforehand." Ritsu sighs in some disappointment, walking you back to his office. "For you to be burdened by such a debt reflects poorly on me as well, you know. So long as you and I continue our working relationship and you do well on your missions, I'm certain you'll be able to repay me in time. Now then, as for the fee for negotiations. . . ."

[kyouka-supremacy]

Atsushi for the ask game.

ATSUSHI HERE WE GO THANK YOU FOR HEARING MY PRAYERS

Favorite thing about them: HIS SELFISHNESS. It's so so delicious to explore. Can you imagine a protagonist that saves others not out of simple good will, but because of egoistic self-preservation motives? It just feels counterintuitive for me lmao, and I found it quite messed up when I first watched the anime, but now it's so compelling to explore. His whole “everything I do is in order to gain the right to live” is crazy fashinating. Because lol, that's entirely nonsensical to me! There's no such thing as “gaining the right to live”; all humans, every person in the world is inherently deserving of life. All. No exception. So there's no level of “weak” or “worthless” that would make you lose that right. The fact that's it's a vision so distant and absurd from mine, idk, it just makes it very compelling to explore? “What if there was a little fucked up guy who believed the right to live had to be earned” just sounds like a very interesting premise.

Least favorite thing about them: When I first watched the anime, I think I found him low-key annoying? I just... Don't do very well with self-deprecating people and people who complain a lot in general, I usually suffer in silence and tend to (wrongly) assume others should do the same (this probably makes me sound pretty mean, I swear I try to be understanding irl). However, it doesn't bother me as much anymore, I simply think it's more of a distinctive trait of the character that makes him multilayered and unique. As of now, I can't think of anything I don't like about him if not the fact that I wish he'd rely on Dazai and others in general a little less. I know that has to do with his lack of self-worth, so maybe it makes sense,, but as of now he feels kind of stuck. I just wish we'd see him grow more on that front.

Favorite line:

There may be better ones, but I really like the delivery of this one.

brOTP: KYOUKA AND ATSUSHI they make me go insane. Already talked about this in the Kyouka post but just to reiterate: in my headcanon Kyouka really is the only person Atsushi feels genuine, selfless affection towards. It's very sweet. They're siblings. Kyouka's happiness is really important for Atsushi. They really do have that feeling of people who got out of an abusive environment learning what normality is supposed to be like together. I also really like how they compensate for what the other lacks, be it decisiveness and coolhead for Atsushi and empathy and positivity for Kyouka. Although plenty shipping them romantically, I really like platonic sskk and atsulucy as well.

OTP: I really like sskk eheh. I think they're neat. There's a thousand and one reasons why I find them pretty great. They're objectively the only reason why I got invested in bsd as well as the only thing that has me keep up with the franchise to this day. Right now, I feel like the one thing I really appreciate about them is how you can be the worst person in the universe and still somehow be loveable to someone. I think it's sweet. I also find it very fun and enterataining to explore their various soulmatism antics. They're both very complex and multilayered characters with something deeply wrong with how their minds work that makes them very fun to analyze both by their own and in the complexity of their relationship. Their collective story arc and canon relationship progression is extremely engaging and nice to follow, too. I love dazatsu and atsulucy as well!! Both were ships I wasn't particularly invested when I read the manga for the first time, but really grew in me in the last six months or so. I really dig akuatsulucy as well!!

nOTP: Nothing?

Random headcanon: He really likes reading. There's some real meta-analysis to be made here I actually had written this is probably not the right place to talk about, but in a work that's all about literature, he's the character who reads.

Unpopular opinion: He's the hardest character to write / characterize. That's why people should probably go easier on other fans when they mischaracterize him. He's just very multifaceted and genuinely hard to get. I keep seeing people being like “Stop babyfying Atsushi he's an independent adult!!” then turn around to say “he can't be shipped with Dazai because there's too much unbalance of power :// [somewhat implying Atsushi can't make free decisions for himself]”, or “Stop making of Atsushi a soft baby who never did wrong in his life!!!” then turn around to say “Atsushi is the happy puppy of the agency who gets treats and pats from everyone ^^ ” like. At least to me, a lot of people's arguments sound self-contradictory all the time; but that doesn't mean people should stop having fun and characterize the characters as they like! Just, let's stop being mean to each other and try to be a little more accepting towards others' takes, shall we? And yes that also includes letting people find Atsushi annoying if they find him annoying (although like, I've NEVER found anyone call Atsushi annoying ever, so really, what remote fandom spaces is everyone visiting? Why are you looking for clothes (good takes) at the soup store (Tik/tok I assume?) ).

Song i associate with them: Common World Domination by Pinocchio-P, HIBANA by DECO*27, Ghost Rule by DECO*27, so on and so forth.

Dc X Dp Headcanon - Kryptonite

What if kryptonite in these kinds of crossovers wasn’t ghost candy?

Kryptonite was formed from the death energy of a planets worth of in an instant. It’s formation is unique due to the number of deaths involved in its creation, the stressors the ectoplasm was exposed to after the planet blew up, and just how much agony and sorrow it contains within even the tiniest piece.

In every piece of Kryptonite from the largest to the smallest there are countless echos wailing in wordless sorrow, screaming in a cacophony of anger, or in some combination of the two. The reason why the only members of the living that are effected by kryptonite is Kryptonians is due to the echoes extreme jealousy that they got to escape, that they got to live while none of them got that luxury. So they inflict every ounce of their suffering, every single thing they felt when they died, on those who dared to escape and this is the canonical result to kryptonite we see in kryptonians. The echoes miss the other members of the living because they aren’t liminal enough for them to touch. Living kryptonians are similar enough that they don’t have this protection.

Ghosts are also negatively effected by kryptonite, but not anywhere near the same level as kryptonians. Whenever a ghost gets too close to a chunk of kryptonite, all they can hear are the screams. A weaker ghost will be forced to make a new path due to the strength behind the screaming because it is just too painful, while stronger ghosts can push through it if absolutely necessary but it won’t be pleasant. The ghosts also aren’t entirely sure whether kryptonite is made of just echoes like what can happen with condensed ectoplasm but gone weird, or if the extreme disaster of the death of kryptonite captured the souls of its dead and melted them down into these crystals of pain. No one is willing to find out either.

Liminal when exposed to kryptonite will not experience pain like ghosts and kryptonians, but they do get something. They do hear the screams that kryptonians don’t hear while ghosts do, but it is muted. The amount of liminality a person has determines how loud the kryptonite is from a barely there whisper to a conversational level. Liminals also can sense that there is something deeply wrong with kryptonite whenever they are around it. How we, the average liminal who would be exposed to kryptonite would ignore these symptoms as unnecessary paranoia instead of them being able to see beyond the norm.

There is no such thing as true synthetic kryptonite. All of the human researchers thinking it is just another crystal and trying to replicate it are missing a n important part of the process. Earth has plenty of ectoplasm form them to shape into a crystal, but the researchers don’t have the necessary amount of deaths in the proper way to make it. So every type of kryptonite they do make had the fun combination of whatever overpowering thought they had while trying to make it combined with the intent for it to only work on kryptonians. Without this second but their synthetic “kryptonite” would work just as well on humans, but since all the people making it want to just hurt/affect kryptonians, that is the only group it works on. This is where all other kryptonite colors comes from. True kryptonite can’t change color and green kryptonite cannot be reproduced.

Match Made in Valhalla

A very underrated duo to me in RTTE (spoilers) is Dagur and Sleuther.

The way Dagur got both dragons was honestly perfect to me. He started of with a Gronckle because no one in their right mind would give him a dangerous dragon. Then, what does he do? He Dagurs all over the place and somehow makes a Gronckle cool enough to even outmaneuver a Razorwhip. After that, he gets his first already cool dragon. That's fun as it is, but the emotional side makes it so much better.

They're kindred souls. It's possible that Sleuther (or Strykie as I prefer since Dagur always calls him that) used to be less violent before he was captured, but that's not the Triple Strykes we know. We see the one who is ready to kill anyone if he needs to. No hesitation, just violence. Does this not sound like early Dagur? On top of it, they both had adjustment periods with the Riders. Strykie was so difficult for them to train and Dagur still isn't someone you can really tell to not do something if he wants to. Putting these two together shouldn't work. If anything, it should cause them to just be more aggressive since neither really wants to stop, but look at that adorable picture. They're able to understand each other more than the other dragons or Vikings could. As great as Shattermaster was, we didn't see these tender moments between him and Dagur. They were great friends and he was a great starter dragon, but these Dagur and Strykie can relate to the anger they have inside and help keep it down.

We've already seen that Dagur has nightmares. A headcanon of mine is that they both do. Whenever fatigue hits them so much that they can't remain awake to avoid that anymore, one stays guard for the other. When Strykie has a nightmare about his time being forced to fight, Dagur can soothingly wake him up and assure him that he's safe now. When Dagur has a nightmare about (pick a topic. There's plenty to choose from), Strykie is able to do the same.

Also, there's the added cuteness of how they met. Dagur and Shattermaster saved Strykie from getting attacked, then he returned the favor. Strykie is actually the first anything (dragon or character) to choose Dagur, but he did. He waved his stinger and sort of said, "We're friends now." It even took Dagur off guard, but I still think that little moment of Strykie letting him know that he can ride on his back and Dagur realizing that he can is adorable. If I can find an image later, I'll try to add it, but it might have that little search thingy from Pinterest if I can't spot it on Google.

I wish this had been explored some more, so a future fic of mine is going to delve into how they can help one another in these ways. I don't think there's anyone else who could truly get it the way that they would. None of the other humans or reptiles have been prisoners the way that they both have or have done things that would haunt them. Who knows how many dragons Strykie was forced to kill and what mental space he put himself in to be able to stomach it day after day. We already know Dagur has guilt he'll never recover from since he's killed an island + worth of people. Their other friends could support them as they try to change, but they're the only ones who could just look at one another and already know what's being felt because they'd each felt it before too.

Caregiver Emotions Headcanons (Inside Out)

This one was a little tricky; it’s hard to write them as completely independent characters rather than extensions of Riley. But this is my very favorite Pixar film, and one of my biggest comfort movies, so I tried my best. 🙂

Joy

She is a super playful caregiver, constantly messing with you and telling jokes.

Her high energy means she’s always ready for a game of chase or make-believe or just whatever!

She constantly tries to make the best of things, which can sometimes be… a little frustrating. But at other times, she is truly able to help turn things around, so it balances out.

Joy has absolutely no qualms about breaking the rules for “good” reasons; the others sometimes have to reign her in. (“Oh, you can totally have another cookie, sweetheart-” “Joy, this is how people get stomachaches!”)

She is much better at listening than she used to be, and more willing to step back if she isn’t the caregiver you need at the moment.

Sadness

She’s a much calmer caregiver, and is totally content to sit quietly with you if that’s what you want.

She is AMAZING at helping out when you’re sad. It’s incredibly easy to talk to her about your problems, even if you usually struggle with that. She’s just a fantastic listener.

(She’s also a fantastic hugger.)

Sadness knows a lot about human psychology and can actually give a name to certain mental issues you might be experiencing, which for some people is incredibly helpful.

She frequently reminds you that whatever you feel is okay. Certain actions or responses to emotions may not be healthy, but the emotions themselves are alway okay to experience.

Fear

He is SUPER focused on your safety. There are plenty of dangers in the world, and he does NOT want his kiddo to experience any of them!

(But some dangers, obviously, you will experience - which is why he has a library’s worth of emergency plans prepared.)

As much as he fusses about your safety, he really tries not to be overbearing. He doesn’t want YOU to be afraid of things, just… mindful of danger.

He’s actually great at soothing any worries about monsters or other “imaginary” dangers - and he’s super understanding if they still make you nervous.

Fear is the best one to go to about nightmares; he fully listens if you want to describe them, and doesn’t press if you don’t.

Disgust

She’s great at standing up for you if you struggle to stand up for yourself. She finds it very easy to take charge and has no problem telling others you’re uncomfortable. “Hey, my kiddo doesn’t like strangers, so you can go ahead and back up.”

And if people aren’t willing to listen? Oh boy, she will rip them a new one. Disgust has insults for days and will leave anyone who messes with you in tears. Then she’ll lead you away and check that you’re alright in a more private location.

She makes sure you always have cool clothes and accessories for every occasion.

She is great at helping you hide your regression when you need to, giving you subtle reminders for behavior and keeping attention off you.

She’s not always good at helping if you just want to cry, but if you want actual reassurance? She is ON IT. She will go over every aspect of your appearance and personality, point out every wonderful trait you possess, and remind you that anyone who can’t see your awesomeness needs their eyes checked.

Anger

He radiates heat, and is wonderful to cuddle with. (Which he complains about a little but actually LOVES.)

He insists that people respect whatever age range you’re in at the moment. “You expect a preschooler to do this?! Come back when they’re older, buddy, we’re building a house right now.”

(He also gets huffy when people treat you too condescendingly for your age range. “Can it with the baby talk, they’re eight years old!”)

Anger will fight someone if they upset you. He will fight multiple someones. Anybody. Everybody. NO ONE gets away with upsetting you.

If you’re the kind of regressor who swears, he DEFINITELY encourages it. It cracks him up whenever you swear around the others and they look shocked.

[blacksology]

venom & riot NSFW alphabet

venom:

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

eddie: eddie is very sweet after sex. he’ll ask if you need anything. massages, baths, food and water, or another round. either way, he treats you like a queen

venom: same with eddie, he’ll lick all the scratches and bites he gave you. he’ll then set you in his chest and let you lay there while he rubs your back.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

eddie likes his hands. their thick and finger you so well. he also likes you ass. he will grab and smack it in public. he is not afraid.

venom likes his tongue ofc. it can reach places no other human being can’t. he loves LOVES you hands. he loves how soft they are and how well they work his cock.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

both eddie and venom like to cum inside you. less of a mess. but if your not feeling it, they’ll cum on you.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

eddie wants you to peg him. plain and simple.

[aziraphales-library]

Hello! I'm new here, and I'd like to say I love your account so much!! Would you happen to have any good posts centered around Crowley and the old lady that lives below his flat? Those always tickle me •⁠ᴗ⁠•

Thank you!

Hi and welcome! We have a #crowley's neighbour tag, so check that out for fics like this. There aren't loads, but here are a couple more to add to the collection...

The Neighbor Upstairs by DandelionDrabbles (G)

Like any little old lady worth her salt, Edna knew everyone who lived in her building, and then some.

All it took was plenty of spare time, open eyes and ears, occasional well-placed nosiness, and a keen understanding of how to read people. She knew the things about her neighbors and their lives that they openly showed the world. She knew the things that they tried, and failed, to keep secret. And she knew the things that they by and large successfully concealed from the rest of the world… but not from Edna.

For example, she knew that Mr. Anthony J. Crowley, who lived a couple floors up and sometimes gave her houseplants, really, really needed a hug.

Baby, It's Cold Outside by SparkKeyper (T)

Old habits die hard. Crowley and Aziraphale’s habits are very, very old.

Building their own side is difficult when 6000 years of instincts won’t shut up.

“Little old lady on the floor below” by Mischievous_Misfit (G)

"I headcanon that he helps the little old lady downstairs with her groceries and the like but that if anyone asks about it he just lies. She knows he's not human and removes all the religious stuff from her house to make him more comfortable. It isn't until she says something about having to hide her garlic away that he realizes she thinks he's a vampire."

A Tree of Life by aknightofthe7kingdoms (G)

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. Proverbs 13:12

Crowley was certain that he wasn’t ill. He just wasn’t feeling...quite well.

TBB Boys as Desserts

This has been something I’ve been wanting to do for over a week now, but I’m just now getting around to it. This idea was made by the prompts of the @renegade-force-99 team and our discord. I absolutely took this way too seriously, but here we are, and I regret mostly nothing. 

Enjoy our sweet boys and my headcanons for them, and why they match with certain deserts! 

Crosshair is a macaroon. 

The process of making a macaroon is of high difficulty, at least from my understanding and experience, and I feel like Crosshair, as a person, is just as high difficulty. They are very particular, and require the exact right type of environment in order to ‘come out right’, or in Crosshair’s case, function healthily. 

They are stubborn, particular, and time-consuming. They have a hard exterior, but a very soft interior. Despite all of the hardness and difficulty, they are worth every second of effort and time, and deserve to be cherished - they are highly sought after, and considered a delicacy, just like our sniper. 

Echo is gelato. 

Gelato has some different ingredients than ‘reg’ ice cream - there are some extra steps, or pieces, that exist in Echo, and in gelato, that regular clones and regular ice cream don’t have. Gelato, and Echo, both need to go at a slower pace in order for them to efficiently function. You can’t push or rush them, otherwise, that can spoil it. They need time to warm up, cool down, and it’s better if you let them take their time. 

It is a very healthy option, and I feel like Echo is one of our most healthy boys, emotionally and physically. It is dense, as well - as for how this translates into our boy, it doesn’t mean stupid - I’ve taken it to mean more ‘info dense’ because that boy can recite whole reg manuals off the top of his head. 

Gelato, and Echo, tend to be more intense than regs as well, but they are still an easy go-to, as well as a comfort item for plenty of people. Repetition (or ‘echoing’ a process) is important to them as well since there is a specific way of going about things. 

Hunter is red velvet cake. 

A lot of this is just based on vibes. This man screams ‘red velvet’ to me. Like all cakes and most clones, they are good with kids and are a good, easy option to interact with. Hunter and red velvet both are easily loveable, and aesthetically pleasing, as well as a classic to gravitate to. I consider them a leader in the cake world and clone world. They are ahead of the game, and setting out a strong example for others to follow. 

At its roots, it is technically ‘regular’, but it’s made to look different - for red velvet, it is simply for the sake of being pretty, but in Hunter’s case, he looks the most like other clones, and while being almost exactly the same as the base, he had to find a way to stand out (i.e, long hair), and be different while still ‘being basic’, while also not being basic at all. It’s special. 

Tech is cheesecake.

One word: pie. Cheesecake isn’t technically a pie, but it’s also not technically a cake - it’s a funky middle ground that I think works well with Tech, as well as the joke of him being smart and having the name of a mathematical number. In my experience, cheesecake people are always vehement that they are right, and cannot be disproven. Remind you of anyone? 

It is straightforward but quirky. They could be left as a base, or add toppings for more flair - in cheesecake, this could be strawberries, but in Tech, it’s his adaptability, ability to work in most situations, and plenty of variety in personality. 

They are multifaceted. They are also much more sturdy than they appear to be. (Example: if they fall from a tall height, they are perfectly fine, even if the composition may be a bit broken, they made it, and are still function as a dessert, or a human.) They are also a fan favorite. 

Wrecker is cookies. 

Unlike Crosshair, Wrecker’s difficulty setting is on easy. How can you look at a cookie, and not enjoy it? It brings you joy, plain and simple. They are straightforward - no lies, complications, or anything difficult here. They are classic, enjoyed by almost everyone, and how you enjoy them depends entirely on how you treat them - they can be hard or soft, depending upon your attitude and approach. 

Cookies are easy to cook, which also makes them a good contender to be good with kiddos, just like Wrecker is. There are so many options with them, even if most people gravitate towards one or two ideas, or perceptions, of them. They can be unassuming and ‘stupid’ but they can be much more complicated.

what if Isaac and Hector decided to stick together after the end of S4? 🤞 Head canons for how their partnership would look??

Ask: what if Isaac and Hector decided to stick together after the end of S4? 🤞 Headcanons for how their partnership would look??

A/N: Ooh, good question! 

Isaac & Hector Partnership Headcanons: 

I think the both of them have learned so much, and grown as men throughout the last three seasons, but I also don’t think they’re done yet. While both of them have come to admire humans and non-humans as capable creatures, often worthy of respect, they still lack experience living in the middle of just your regular, average-joe people. If Isaac is to continue ruling, and Hector chooses to stay, I see them gravitating towards each other fairly often. This grants them some familiarity and refuge among the new elements of everyday human interactions. 

Hector still feels himself in debt, quite a bit to Isaac, for his betrayal of him and Dracula at Braila. Even though Isaac has already acknowledged this, I think having a Hector who wants to prove his worth and apology pleases Isaac greatly. His whole thing with Dracula was about loyalty- he was so loyal it blinded him. Of course, now he knows blind loyalty isn’t the answer; but that isn’t to say Isaac’s disregarded it entirely. He still values trustworthiness in the fellow human he has come to call his friend. It means even more now, the two of them being able to see the other for who they wholly are- the good, the bad, and all that’s in between. 

Hector said he’d like to write a book maybe, and I see no reason why he can’t do that there. The castle is full of resources, I’m sure. Plus, there’s still his forge should he want to do any of that class of work. I’d imagine he’d stay, even if just for the time being, as he writes, before setting off on his own into the real world. 

Additionally, I see Hector as someone who craves approval and adoration- why do you think he keeps reanimating so many dead pets? It’s not just that he likes animals, it’s that animals provide unconditional love to the ones who provide for them- more so when you’re their necromancing master. He said he was cast out by the humans long ago, but deep down, just like everybody else, he wants to be accepted; Hector wants to be loved. 

Ironically enough, love is somewhat of an area of study for Isaac, as for the longest time, he viewed his act of cleansing the world as a final act of love. ‘Love’ for him has never been the kind of healthy, mature variety he deserved. It took him crossing an ocean and multiple countries, seeking out what he believed to be the opposite of love (i.e. revenge) to discern what real ‘love’ and compassion were as they pertained to mortal kind. 

There are still plenty of answers to find in one another and the world around them. I don’t know if their newfound partnership would last for the remainder of their lives, but I do like to think they spend a deal of time continuing to grow together.

Can we get a nsfw alphabet for ash? 👀

Y’all horny💀

But alright (NSFW facts under the cut)

A = Aftercare(what they’re like after sex)

If he’s hooking up with someone, depending on what they expect from him, he can range from kicking them out immediately after or offering for them to chill for a bit and cleaning them up. He will not cuddle unless absolutely necessary.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

Physically speaking, he doesn’t really have a preference. I guess he likes his figure? And as for a partner’s, maybe their hair. They have to be aesthetically pleasing as a whole in order for him to consider them a good candidate for the “fuckbuddies to give a character testimony if needed and also to get off with if he’s craving sex” role.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

His cum is pretty thick and moderately salty. He typically has a lot because he doesn’t care to get off much.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

Sometimes he thinks about torturing and/or murdering his fuckbuddies during the act, but in the end, it’d be more trouble than it’s worth and he can get off just fine without it. He prefers his partners to think he’s a great guy even though he’s the complete opposite.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

He’s hooked up quite a bit and has no problem getting people in his bed because he’s studied human behavior enough to be charming and lacks any sort of anxiety that would hinder his attempts. He knows what he’s doing and if it serves him, he’ll give you the best orgasm of your life.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

Missionary on a lavish bed with plenty of pillows while his partner is tied up or wearing lacy lingerie because he finds it aesthetically pleasing. He will sometimes do doggy style if he doesn’t feel like looking at his partner’s face.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

Serious. It goes without saying that anytime he’s acting goofy, it’s very much an act. While in the act, he prefers for his partner to think it’s a divine experience so they’re willing to overlook his red flags, and being goofy just doesn’t fit that mold in his mind.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

He’s trimmed. He knows most of his fuckbuddies find a happy trail to be hot, so he keeps it well groomed to keep up the illusion of social acceptability. He’s actually just well maintained in general because he wants people to like him on a surface level.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He will fake intimacy if he knows that’s what you want or expect. He’ll skimp out on it though if you’d still maintain your purpose without it.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

He prefers jacking off as opposed to having sex because he doesn’t like dealing with people, but sometimes he wants something pretty to look at while getting off. He doesn’t jerk off more than a couple times per week.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

He likes lingerie, bondage, knife play, sensory deprivation, medical play, degradation, (all giving) and he’s a sadist. There’s probably more, but idk. He’s also a fan of enthusiastic consent, surprisingly enough. He likes affecting people, be it positively or negatively.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

His guest bed. Or a hotel bed. Maybe a couch if it fits with the scene he’s trying to do. He’s not a big fan of doing it anywhere else because it would seem tedious. He enjoys seeing people he’s aesthetically attracted to splayed amongst plush pillows and fluffy blankets.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

Hormones and necessity. He isn’t sexually attracted to people, so trying to get him riled up doesn’t work. He gets horny only when his body does it on its own due to hormones. He will also fuck someone if he needs to do it to maintain his image (ie. Keeping his fuckbuddies hooked and addicted to him). Though I will say that he finds contrasts to be pleasing to the eye and he likes things that would be classified as “striking”. He’s a big fan of black and white color schemes, so if you’re a lighter person with dark hair/clothing or a darker person with brighter hair, clothing, or eyes, he’ll be interested. If you have vitiligo or anything similar, that’ll definitely make his head turn. The starker the contrast, the better. (*coughHarpercough*)

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

I think the shorter list would be “what would he do?” He isn’t into much, but one obvious “no” is cuddling and anything else too chummy. He also won’t do scat, watersports, or age play because those gross him out.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

He isn’t a big fan. He doesn’t mind giving or receiving so much that he isn’t willing to do it (for example, to get his partner prepped for him), but he’d rather just fuck normally.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

He’s usually pretty slow and sensual just to make sure it’s a good experience and to make sure he hits all the right spots to make his partner come crawling back for more no matter the consequences. However, he can get rougher if he needs to.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

They aren’t his thing. He’d get annoyed if someone tried to initiate one with him, but he’d play it off as being a restrained gentleman. But yeah, if they get too pushy with him, he’ll find a way to dispose of their body.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

He likes what he likes and he doesn’t really care enough to make sex a big enough part of his life to do much experimentation. He’s fine with risks, but not stupid ones.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

He doesn’t really care enough to go multiple rounds. If his partner is interested in a longer night, he’ll make them cum as many times as he needs to, but once he cums, he’s tapping out.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

He owns a few, but doesn’t use them much. It’s mostly just dildos or vibrators for certain partners. For him, he’s fine with just his hand most of the time.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

A moderate amount. He likes affecting people, but he’s not eager to edge anyone and would prefer to get the whole ordeal over with as fast as possible so he can get back to torturing the poor unfortunate soul in his basement.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

Pretty much dead silent except for a few grunts and pants unless he’s degrading someone.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

His goal when fucking someone is to make them think that he’s a sex god so that they’re willing to put in a good word for him if he gets into trouble with the law (and also to drive his victims crazy with the sheer amount of people singing his praises). Cuz if he’s in jail, how will they get their fix of Ash dick? Sexytime with him is purely manipulation and for him to get his dick wet.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

He’s big! 8.5” and thick enough to fill. Unfortunately for him, this means he spends a lot more time on foreplay than he’d like. (But he can deal with it lol -Dev)

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Pretty close to zero. He tries not to focus on it too much.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

He’ll be up for a while after. His orgasms aren’t too strong, so they don’t tend to affect his functioning afterwards or make him sleepy.

[crystallinestars]

-same anon here ✨

Nah you’re all good! I was genuinely just curious to know your thoughts hehe. I’m also a biologist so I can see the argument for Foxian behavior going either way. There’s a lot of room for headcanons to add onto HSR’s pre-existing lore.

I’d like to think they only have some kind of instinctual behaviors but not many? If that makes sense. In a reproductive sense I feel it’s much less important: I can see the median average of Foxians having only 1 kid… very rarely 2. But for the sake of their species as you said, it’s not really an important thing to procreate or have those animalistic traits.

Red foxes supposedly have behaviors that can indicate monogamy in males but it can be iffy and isn’t always an exception the rule of irl foxes. Though, it’s been observed that some male foxes never have/refuse to have another mate if their original dies. Also, good point about Yukong’s dead friend that I didn’t think of!

Jiaoqiu is a very complex character that I can see being very attached if he allowed himself to meet someone who broke down his walls and “mend his broke heart” I.e. someone who brings out positive emotions in him in a romantic way. As an “old fox” (as he’s described himself) I don’t see that as being something he’s too concerned with, but it’s just an added plus for fanfic writers to give some happiness to the grumpy, cunning, traumatized guy :( lord knows he needs it, even if just a platonic “found family” sort of way— (I’m not over 2.5 and his backstory as you might be able to tell)

Anyways, sorry for popping in so randomly and rambling here. I do appreciate you taking the time to respond and give your thoughts! It’s always a pleasure to chat with fellow writers and brainstorm some stuff with fandoms! ^.^

Oh my gosh, a fellow biologist! Hello! 😄

Much like you, I can see foxians having some instinctual behaviours. Even if we weren't shown or told about any in the game, I recon some exist, though not to the extreme that we might observe in wild foxes in real life. Plus, as you pointed out, HSR's world building leaves plenty of room for players to insert their headcanons into the world, so anything is possible.

I bet some employees at Mihoyo have ideas about foxian physiology and reproductive behaviours that they can't include in the game. Considering how they made Ganyu's horns canonically sensitive, I wouldn't put it past them...

Nature has a way of always creating exceptions to whatever rule we as humans develop about a species. I didn't know that some male foxes are monogamous, but it sounds like they're similar to humans in that way. Some stay with a single partner for life, and some do not. It comes down to the individual.

Speaking of, I do think Jiaoqiu might have had a partner in the past since I believe he experimented with relationships when he was younger, but it wasn't anything serious. However, the war changed him a lot. The war left him numb inside (I actually saw a cool theory on twitter about Jiaoqiu potentially being a Self-Annihilator), so he eats spicy food because the pain makes him feel alive, and by extension I think his emotions have become dulled, including love. It could just be that he grew jaded and bitter after the war, lost about his own worth as a healer, or perhaps he's fearful of growing attached and having his heart broken again. Regardless, I completely agree that he would grow attached to someone who helped heal his trauma, gave him a purpose again, made him feel alive and appreciated, etc (much like Feixiao does for him right now), and he would bind himself to them for life. Again, just look at Jiaoqiu's loyalty toward Feixiao and the lengths he's willing to go for those he truly cares about.

That 2.5 quest was uncalled for. All my favorite Hoyo men have self-sacrificing tendencies, and I am tired of constantly worrying about them aahh

I'm certain post-war Jiaoqiu would devote himself to a single romantic partner. It would take a special person to breach his barriers and mend his heart, and not just anyone would fit that bill. Just the fact someone cared that much and put in the effort for his sake would touch Jiaoqiu deeply and leave a strong impression, that I don't think he would be able to take on another partner after, nor would he want to because nobody can replace them. I think this applies to any of us in real life, too. If someone is there for us in our lowest moments, shows us care and affection, then we'll feel an attachment to them.

Jiaoqiu is on the older side, but I don't think he's as old as Yukong (who has a silvery tail compared to Jiaoqiu), so he still has lots of years left to live. Even if he's not concerned about finding healing, I still hope he does manage to overcome his heartbreak and find purpose in life again beyond just healing Feixiao.

No need for apologies, I'm happy to receive character analysis asks! Thank you for taking the time to send them in and for indulging in this discussion with me, it's a lot of fun hearing others' ideas.

If you also write for Jiaoqiu, I'll be very happy. He's so underrated and deserves a lot more love than he gets from fandom. Majority of my faves end up being unpopular, which is why I took to making my own content about them. The more Jiaoqiu fics that exist in the world, the better 😤

this is such a boring and frustrating take, and it sucks that you and the rest of the clique of jedi stan blogs are so hostile to anyone who loves the jedi but is also willing to critisize them.

Okay. I'm done throwing away a lifetime's worth of boxes and moldy food and paper clips and old magazines and I'm just tired enough to feel like being salty.

Look here. This post?

See the "do you think" part? The part that announces that post is about what *I* think? Why would you feel the need to tell me that you, a perfect stranger to me and an anon on top of that, personally find my opinion boring and frustrating? I don't know why you think that. I don't know (though I can guess) what you find boring and frustrating. I can't have a conversation with you because you're anonymous and you're not interested in engaging in any sort of debate - if you were, you'd be refuting some of my points with you're own arguments. Your response would still be unprompted, but it'd be a lot less annoying.

That post also states again and again that I don't think the Jedi are perfect. Nowhere does it say I think they're above criticism - I even say the exact opposite. I'm guessing you're taking issue with me saying I wouldn't change anything about the Order. If that's the case, grow a thicker skin.

Finally, I absolutely take issue with you calling me hostile, because nothing about that post was remotely about other people's opinions, much less policing them. It was a post about what I think, on my blog, which is for me. I don't send contentious asks, I don't reblog posts I disagree with, I very rarely comment on those either, I try to not tag my vague salty posts so they don't show up unprompted on people's dash, I do tag my longer takes appropriately so people can filter them out and I don't do call outs. How is my salt (and the post you linked WASN'T EVEN SALTY qsghtrertgh) hostile?

Like, come on! That post you're annoying me about? Had this in the links:

I’ve been thinking a bit - a lot, for like a year - about all the headcanons around Jedi’s biological people, and there are really only two possible cases that seem to get explored: the pure of heart, flawed but loving, desperate parents who ‘had’ to give up their precious child to the Jedi and didn’t feel they had a choice (most commonly seen from the more Jedi critical parts of the fandom, but not always), and the horribly abusive no good parents at all who gladly dumped their baby onto the Order (which appears to be the way of some Jedi fans to ‘justify’ the adoption into the Order as legitimate, which really shouldn’t be the point because adoptions are just as legitimate without abuse factoring in).

What’s kinda sad is how little we’re willing to explore all the possibilities, maybe because we don’t want to be perceived as on the wrong side of the fandom by our own pals. We all deal with just so much bad faith discourse that we smooth out any sort of human drama and nuance to try and have clear cut narratives that are so black and white that they must prevent bad faith interpretations. Jedi have to be perfect pure angels that have never done anything wrong to be recognized as good, because we’re afraid that if we write them in an interesting way people will jump on the opportunity to accuse them of all sorts of stuff.

Well, I’m tired of vanilla fics and good guys vs bad guys when dealing with purely human everyday stuff. Bad guys are for the galactic battles, the epic clash of eternal forces. When dealing with how Jedi younglings come to the Order, we can have plenty of amazing, heart-wrenching drama and warm, happy moments where all sorts of good and regular people have different goals and meet and clash without anyone being at ‘fault’ or being to blame for it. I want to see (*sigh* to write) complex, difficult situations that can’t be perfectly resolved but where people do try and everyone feels like a *person*.

So yeah. I guess you were taking out a larger frustration on me, which is understandable but also very unwelcome

After Hours 08

Can we agree that windows updates are really annoying?

Really frustrating when you’re looking forward to unwind after work, only to greeted by my laptop lagging and finding out that window’s been downloading/installing some new updates that I have no fecking idea what they are.

Worst part is, when it’s finally done and just needed to restart and when you do so, you’re greeted by either:

The updates not installed properly and have to wait for it to finish updating again or, even more fecking updates.

So I’ve been thinking about some way to return Afton in the story, given the amount of times that guy(human) gets revived/resurrected in the main franchise, and he(mouse) barely have any screen time in the story.

You’d think the guy who’s responsible for the mess our friends are in, would have more role in the story.

A bit of lore dump and you could consider it a bit spoilerish.

My headcanon is that one of his many research delve on gaining immortality.

While the idea of making remnant did came across his mind, he shelved the idea due to being that there’s little to none to extract and not worth the trouble. No, he didn’t kill anyone, at least not by his own hands; just plenty of unauthorized entries into the morgue.

My explanation is that as anthromorphic animals, their survival instincts are heavily embedded in their genes unlike humans. And for all the “We’re top of the food chain” or “humanity fuck yeah!”, our survival instincts are pretty much shit; hence why our determination to live hits into overdrive.

At least that’s how I see it.

The other method he tried was to upload his consciousness into a machine.

One of his tests was copying his personality in a helper robot, while he did succeed, he still deemed it a failure since it didn’t copied everything or they clashed with his personality.

 Said one of his test, is the one Beanie is talking too. The helpful one.

Given her experience with his “works”, can’t blame her.

Gil for the character ask?

First impression

Oh man back when I first watched FSN and half of Zero like a decade ago I HATED him, but it was like one of those.... "I hate you so much but you're very compelling, but also i HATE you", and also he was very popular so that made me kinda dislike too.

Impression now

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH OH MY GOD. Watching babylonia was so worth it because it showed me that he was definitely more than he was in UBW which, uh, wasn't his finest moments. Seeing him there and in CCC was like, a blessing, and he's such a great character and I own a copy of the epic now and that's my number one fate boyfriend

Favorite moment

WHERE DO I START-- well there's a lot of little things in CCC that I absolutely adore (AUO castoff take my money), but I think one of my favorite moments is the scene in Babylonia where he talks to Enkidu about his role as king while watching his people celebrate. Also - heartbreakingly not in the anime but in the game - the bit where he tries to fight some spriggans but one's a rider and it bitchslaps him across the field and he's so OFFENDED, i wish that had been animated. Honorable mention is either his sacrifice in Babylonia or the bit in LB7 where he straight up tells Fujimaru to kill Kirei before he betrays them, I laughed really hard at that.

Idea for a story

I WANT STORIES WHERE GIL GETS THE SHIT BEAT OUT OF HIM, I WANT HIM TO CRACK EMOTIONALLY, I WANT TO SEE HIM BE LESS THAN PERFECT, BREAK THIS MAN IN ANY WAY YOU WANT AND I WILL LOVE IT ahem. listen sometimes a man needs a spiked baseball bat to the face if we want him to have any growth at all, mr perfect op bastard goldie is one of those people

Unpopular opinion

This is probably not an UNPOPULAR opinion per se I know plenty of Gil fans who agree with this, but there's still enough dudebros to make this at least a less common opinion-- I don't like him in UBW. And I don't like him for how OP powerful he is. I like him because he's absolutely one of the most human servants despite his demigod status and protests otherwise. He's ridiculously flawed and makes a ton of huge mistakes in his backstory and he's a petty arrogant selfish egotistical childish brat over half the time, and his grief for Enkidu is so relatable and I just /waves hands around/ THAT'S the good shit. Also the REAL unpopular opinion is that I really don't like Koto*Gil all that much.

Favorite relationship

You mean besides Enkidu because that's a given? Well, I ship him with my Fujimaru so there's that, but I think my favorite relationship he has is the UBW Idiot Trio. The closest thing he has to friends and equals these days is Cu and Emiya and I love the way the three of them tend to interact a lot and are like idiot frenemies who still hang out together. I don't think Gil would process friendship post-Enkidu if it bit him in the ass, but I really like that trio's weird dynamic.

Favorite headcanon

Well, Gil is dark-skinned in Fate regardless of how pasty canon wants to tell me he is, suck it illustrators. But most of my headcanons for him are like...more in depth stuff so we'll leave it at that.
