#I am normal about this dog

[lumine-sm]

i just wanna say thank you again for responding to my post, it made me really happy to see, and i love love love talking about headcanons and my favs !! so please feel free to just jump into my notes anytime !!

Anyways, on that note, I'd love to hear about some of your Gorou headcanons if you're comfortable sharing ? :3c (no pressure of course!)

No problem! I’m glad I got to hear some takes on this as he’s not a character many of my Genshin playing friends tend to take much interest in and honestly your headcanons are just really good!

For me personally my main interest in the character comes from the way he helped me get to grips with my gender identity a bit. Because of this my head canons and theories tend to lean towards Miko and his life outside the army, which is why I hadn’t considered the Kokomi headcanon.

Personally I headcanoned him as bigender for a while, seeing him as coming to occasionally use the Hina pen name in his personal life after stuff like the meet and greet (Gorou Hina skin when? Please hoyo). A lot of this came from projecting onto the character and him being a vessel for my own gender discovery. Now I stand by this headcanon but I’m less… militant about it, shall we say. idk if it’s the best one and I think there’s a big place for transmasc Gorou and however else one sees him! Because really I think there’s a case to be made for a lot of different gender identities which I think makes him a really interesting character, at least to me, a gender enjoyer. That said I do think transmasc Gorou holds the most water and is the most recognised.

I’ve also always been a big fan of Ittorou. It’s canon compliant, they work well together, and also, Itto was my first five star. He was sort of the reason I kept playing Genshin and the reason I first pulled for Gorou. Regarding the ship I’ve read a few fics that follow the premise of Itto falling for Hina then falling for Gorou, sort of like that old post about a Bi person falling for a hot man and a hot woman and then realising they’re the same genderfluid person?

I’ve always like the idea of Gorou being a good complimenter? Like you described the way you saw him as a very empathetic person, I see that as one of the ways he connects with his troops, that he’s someone who’s good at positive reinforcement and recognising strengths.

In terms of personality I don’t think I have anything different or interesting to say than what you did. Someone who’s passionate and happy but more quiet and thoughtful in private.

I was originally gonna put this in the tags but here’s probably better. Thanks so much for responding to my asks and reblogs! Hearing someone else’s perspective and passion about something I care about has sort of made my day (I know that might seem silly). I may pop into your notes in the future but

There’s something like the anticipation of a kiss, then the pleasure of being cloaked in peace~

Imagine with me, for a moment, that you are an energetic teenager. You were kind of a weird kid and despite being very extroverted were quite lonely for a good portion of your childhood, especially the last few years. Now you’re not quite an adult but for certain reasons you are wondering around on your own and you come across this dog.

This dog is tied up in the backyard of some big house and he’s not looking so good. You think maybe you should help him out but you’re warned that the dog is agressive and that would be a very bad idea. Then you see a kid come and try to feed the dog. The dog growls and snaps but never actually bites the kid, and not long after you approach the dog and manage to give him the food. Despite what everyone says, the dog never bites you, and you look into his eyes and think that he is a very good dog and that you want to beat up everyone whose ever hurt him.

So you decide to rescue the dog, but as soon as you untie the dog someone comes out of the house and just starts threatening both you and the dog, so you start fighting this guy, and the dog fights with you. The first time you see this supposedly aggressive dog bite someone is when he’s defending you.

So now you have this dog and he’s super loyal to you and would do anything for you and won’t bite if you tell him not to and of course you’d do anything for him too, because that’s your dog and your best friend and suddenly you’re not so lonely anymore.

Anyway that’s how Monkey D. Luffy met Roronoa Zoro.

it's always been difficult for me to make new friends, and now that i'm almost 30 it seems just impossible. unless it's a 40yo geologist i know. then it all goes back to the childhood method that always worked: "hey look at the cool rock i just found"

Can’t stop thinking about Willy’s proposition to the teens. They’re free to go but where?

Back to the place so lovingly crafted by a devoted mother to accommodate for a lack of a father?

Back to the place that once held so much love and strife, the place that reliably held a girl’s mother and best friend only to now hold nothing but a safe left in her name by her stepfather?

To a ruined plot of land, now full of ash and burnt reminders of a presence that will never return?

To a place that once held a child’s whole world?
