(translator use, Sorry if there are any mistakes in this)

First, I love you, I'm super in love with hyugo and you're one of the few people who made x reader content with him, and the writing is so well done that God. It's beautiful 😭💙

Could I request some headcanons with a shy reader? Just like the one you did with Geo but with Hyugo?

Reticence (Hyugo x Shy! MC/Reader)

Thank you for being so patient with me Anon and @cuentademeri *quietly despairs and prays for forgiveness* and for reading my work! I had fun writing this (however, reminder that I am someone who isn't even remotely shy,so if the shyness part seems inaccurate, well, I tried). Hope you enjoy! :D

P.S Thank you for the compliments. <33 They're appreciated.

A/N: Btw if I take longer to answer requests, it's not because I gave up on them, it's simply the fact I don't want to make this blog quantity > quality. Also an original work for TKATB shall be out soon, so uh rejoice.

Reticence: an unwillingness to do something or talk about something, for example because you are nervous or being careful.

—--------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Hyugo first met you, he simply thought you were quiet, like Sol. Until he noticed you essentially never talked.

He wasn't concerned per se, more so curious. Did you feel awkward with him and Sol? Why even sit if you weren't gonna chat?

Tries to befriend you, is the type to wave to you and grin if he sees you around.

Is honestly a tad surprised when he finds out you're shy and reserved.

Doesn't have any issue with it though.

Will make more of an effort to chat you up. Words of affirmation and aggressive positivity galore. "The girls keep saying I'm hideous. I don't believe them but..." "You're not." "Yeah but-" "No buts! Those are for sitting! And I'm going to make sure said people who called you that won't be able to comfortably sit ever again!"

When you star talking more, he's a very happy man.

Likes it when you tell him things, doesn't matter what. He just enjoys hearing you chat about nothing.

He'll ask you at some point why you are shy. He's never been shy so he was curious.

You just explain you're simply not as outgoing as a lot of other people are.

But if you feel shy partially due to appearance woes? He'll tell you you look gorgeous! (He means it he just hasn't realised the extent of said words).

Oh, but if you get bullied? Doesn't matter for what, Hyugo'll fight those responsible (Sol's got too much on his plate already *sob*). Will stand up for you if conflicts arise, mf won't even bat an eye.

He honestly doesn't understand why people target you. You're sweet, cute, even funny when you start crawling out of your shell.

He's honestly angry about it.

He doesn't even fully understand why he feels so strongly about you, nor why he's so eager to see you.

Until one day it hits him. Hard.

It's not like he couldn't see it coming, he suspected it deep down, but refused to admit it.

He has too much shit on his shoulders to catch feelings, no matter how angelic or beautiful or smart you may be.

Alas, his heart has other plans, because it eventually will decide to beat solely for you.

Y'all are the classic "Shy x Outgoing" trope.

He's fine with it. He gets to boost your self-confidence, get you to open up bit by bit, until he's got tens of files on you; with only the necessities of course: - Where you were born - When? What time? - Parents? Carers? Financial situations (doesn't know about the debt teehee) - You get the point

Asks you out right after graduation if he's alive then anyway, to which you say yes. Obviously.

Becomes a very content guy, literally spoils you more than a king ever could. He's rich af.

Will hold your hand in public if you're shy or anxious, is okay with also not holding you if you wish although he will pout at the latter with his plump fucking lips.

Also boosts your confidence, eventually you and him end up having the most absurd, comical banter known to man.

Hyugo is am 11/10 bf, will cater for you, and will never tire of ensuring you're comfortable, content and cordial with him.

And you most definitely are. <33

Kaveh and Cyno would walk around the city while holding hands. This way Cyno would gain a little bit more confident by staying close to Kaveh. When his hands were occupied, he'd clutch onto his clothes or hold his - then kept longer - braid (carefully, of course, so he doesn't hurt him).

One time some adult joked at them that they looked like they were in love and Kaveh got very upset. It made little Cyno sad because he thought of Kaveh his best friend, and he loved him dearly (not being aware of the difference between it being platonic and romantic at the time). As a result, he stopped reaching for Kaveh's hand when they were out and about. He also stopped coming by when Cyrus visited them.

Kaveh assumed that there was only one explanation - Cyno must be dying (he knew Cyno was sick, but he didn't know exactly how it worked) because why else would his friend avoid him? He scolds Cyrus for being so neglectful and leaving his poor friend all alone and demands he's being taken to him (for what he is reprimanded by his parents). Cyrus doesn't understand what is going on, but calms everyone down and agrees to take Kaveh with him. And so Cyno sees Kaveh all flustered, almost crying, and it took him a long time to explain that he was fine. And Kaveh hugs him all so tightly it's almost painful, but he's too surprised to react.

A few days later, he shyly asks Cyrus about it. Why was Kaveh upset when someone assumed they were in love? Cyrus's brows went high, then frowned. And then he laughed.

"Why won't you ask him yourself?" he proposed.

And so the next time the boys were playing together - by which I mean that Kaveh was drawing and talking about his drawings while Cyno was listening - he brought the topic. Kaveh stared silently at Cyno for a moment.

"Do you not love me?" asked Cyno, for which Kaveh's mouth went agape.

"Of course I do!" he nearly shouted offended. "You are my friend, of course I love you!". He dropped his supplies on the grand to hold Cyno's hands.

And Kaveh went on asking about it: what had he done, what made him think so, was Kaveh not a good friend for Cyno, did he forget about something important? What could've made Cyno think he didn't love him? Is that why he stopped visiting? And holding his hand? And pulling at his braid (although trying not to make it hurtful!)

All of a sudden, Cyno felt very embarrassed about the reason behind all this. His friend was worried about him so much and for what? For him to assume something so, so wrong. Yet he still managed to tell him about this one person who joked about them looking like they were in love. And how Kaveh got upset. And how it made him sad.

Awwwww. Little chronically ill Cyno and protective af/anxious Kaveh! I love it.

They'd be okay, they'd grow up together but even in the Akademiya, Kaveh would be very protective (which is hilarious because Cyno really doesn't need it by that point.)

Idk if your thought for this was aro Kaveh or for eventual romance but it really has the energy for both.

Hellooooo! Talk to me about Lucas? 💖

Hello, my adored Debby!

So, I HC Lucas liking the kitchen answer to his question on the first date (the one he never answers). I believe it's a bit of an unpopular opinion, and I can 100% see why the popular ones make a lot of sense. But I have a point. In this essay I will talk about why Lucas actually craves a domestic life. Don't kill me.

So, let's begin with what we know about Lucas: he grew up travelling around the world, he doesn't hate his parents but the relationship could be closer, he likes good food, and he's very organized down to waking up early on weekends to keep his routine.

He's also described in the game as "the handsome daredevil" or whatever the hell when you have to pick someone for the wedding. He rides a motorbike he likes so much he got an ugly tattoo of it. He tells MC he "likes a little danger" and he hasn't regretted anything majorly since year six. He's a bit jealous, and fairly particular about his hair. He hasn't slept around much. He can get insecure.

Yet, what I read in Lucas is a tendency to control. Not in the bad way, not in the sexy way either, but rather in the stability way. Sure, he likes "danger", he's "a daredevil", but I believe all of this is strictly under his own terms. The risks are extremely calculated, which makes them, well, not very risky.

That's why he doesn't regret much. He owns his mistakes as such, he has his own back when he makes wrong decisions because at the very least he made them himself, and he wasn't persuaded by anyone else (I do think he's more easily influenced than he likes to believe, but that's a different discussion. I mean, the bike itself…). That's why his "number" is lower compared to the other boys; you think he'll just sleep with someone he barely knows? Think about all the unaccounted "what if"s!

Sure, he will take off on his bike just because. But it won't be to the middle of nowhere where night will come and he'll have to find a place to sleep on the fly. Oh, no no. Maybe he picked the location at random, to be adventurous, but rest assured, he booked the hotel before he left his house. He's prepared for every contingency, always. Again, not very risky. Lucas is not a risk taker, he likes control. I doubt he has a good tolerance for uncertainty (cough cough Casa Amor cough cough).

But this was about domestic life, right? Well, he's travelled a lot, and can you imagine what his friendships must have been like growing up? Any girlfriends? His neighbours? His bedroom? The only constant he had was his family. Then came college, and the relationship got tenser. We can assume he's been living alone for a while now. Who thinks he has a roommate? Anyone? No? That's what I thought.

So, if we don't equate "domestic" to "marriage, kids, and a dog" but to "stability"… Watch when you tell him that what you imagine when you think of the love of your life is just doing something mundane, in quiet and comfortable silence because you already know everything about each other, with no tension because you know how he folds the towels, in a kitchen – your kitchen – that has been the same one for so many years you both move around it like it's second nature. That you're not only happy when he brings you presents or takes you on vacation or parades you proudly in front of other people, but that something as simple as a new day with him, that makes you happy, because you don't need more than him being him by your side.

That. That is stable, and true. That saves him having to wonder what tomorrow would be like, because after all you're a person and as such he can't control you or your choices the way he can control whether or not he has a spare tire for the bike, and that's a bit scary for him. And we know the boy gets anxious af, so the best thing you can give him is security, and take the pressure off his shoulders that you love all he does for you, but you don't love him because he takes you on a trip around the world.

He would never show it, and he would never ask for it, but I believe people like Lucas need permission to relax a bit every once in a while. Think of it like this: each thing you could do in life is a coin, but for the million coins in existence you only have ten fingers. If those fingers are occupied with basic coins, logically they're taking the place of more interesting ones. So, how do we solve this? What if I told you that you could move those basic coins to the palm of your hand, and not worry about them anymore. Now suddenly you have all those free fingers you can use to hold a plethora of actually fun and interesting things because the basic ones are secured. Maybe that's a shitty metaphor, but I hope the point gets across.

What I mean is that doesn't mean that Lucas wants a "boring" life. He will be his extra af self regularly, but again, it would be different when built on this foundation of, yes I'm gonna say it again, stability. Something he for once doesn't feel the need to control because of the thing's very nature; it won't move, it won't go anywhere, you can rely on it and redirect your energy somewhere more productive.

There are a million contra points for this, and different ways to interpret this. Some people might say that he hates the answer because "That? That's all you want? You could say anything, and that's what you chose? That's mediocre" and that would also be very valid. But I like this alternative, for whatever reason. So yeah. That's why I always pick the kitchen in the first date.
