Can I request some separate headcanons for Yan Qing and Robin who have a female master, master can't sleep and wants a midnight snack so they take her out and break into like an ice cream shop or a cafe or a boba tea shop, you get the idea. And help themselves (aka steal) to a late night treat with their beloved master

It's hot as fuckin' shit. 90° F and it ends up that warm inside my grandmother's house. I survive on ice cream and ice packs. 

Master is having the worst time sleeping on a sweaty summer night. They're uncomfortably toasty and have a mighty need for sustenance. Yan Qing and Robin Hood come to the rescue. (Separately.)

This was available July 6th on Patreon.

Yan Qing

When Master asks Yan Qing for boba, he stops pacing mid-step. He turns to look at them. A look of confusion stretches across his face. There’s almost something comical about his apparent distress. 

He dramatically recalls a recent game of paintball he played with Billy the Kid and Arash. They went for a snack afterwards. Upon hearing a young woman order "boba," Billy hooked his arms around both men's shoulders and asked if they wanted "boba these nuts." Arash asked what this meant. Yan Qing pretended he didn't know. Billy was mortified.

Yan Qing has a vague idea of what boba tea is. It's far after his time, but he does like when cultural artifacts from his home gain popularity. It gives him a sense of nostalgic pride (and dissonance, because he is conflicted about Taiwan).

Master has to drag Yan Qing out of his riveting conversation with himself and also his other self. He puts up a fuss at first, busy arguing over whether or not "boba deez nuts" was offensive. Master convinces him that he'll have to try said boba before he can decide whether or not Billy's dumb comment was worth kicking his ass over. 

Unseeable, untouchable, he breaches the locally-owned cafe Master likes. Once inside he opens the back door for them to join him. There's a chill and a thrill that passes between Yan Qing and his Master. The satisfaction of doing something bad and getting away with it is overwhelming. 

First they have to do something bad, though. Neither of them is interested in the till or the safe. Stealing goods that are packed as a donation to a food bank would be gross. Taking ingredients back to Master's residence would leave them with armfuls of materials they couldn't effectively use. It seems they have no choice but to make their bubble tea on-site. 

Neither of them know how to make bubble tea. Master makes a face at this realization and Yan Qing cackles wildly at their misfortune. Thankfully they have the power of the internet and mobile data at their disposal. Master reads a few recipes and scans an article and Yan Qing looms over their shoulder as he so quickly catches up to their reading. 

The recipe, he thinks, should be easy enough. It would be easier if he’d ever made anything like it in his life. The tea is easy. Yan Qing can brew tea. He can brew tea with the best of ‘em. But what’s with the tapioca balls? Why are they so squishy? What is he supposed to do with them? He wants to juggle them, or throw them. It’s very distracting.

Master pulls him out of his daze. They instruct him to brew the tea while they take care of everything else. Black tea is the common tea for boba, according to the page Master has pulled up on their phone. Yan Qing is not in the mood for black tea. He also doesn’t think iced coffee is appropriate at this hour. Chai tea, maybe? He likes chai tea lattes with soy milk. Milk isn’t necessary for one’s health, did you know, Master? There’s a conspiracy afoot in big dairy where decades have gone to advertising milk to produce more profits than—

Perhaps Yan Qing should acquire different friends.

Robin Hood

Master hobbles out of their sleeping quarters at about 05:00. Robin Hood is kicked back waiting for the sun to rise. When Master shuffles over to him, he nearly jumps out of his skin. Nobody needs to exist this early. 

It appears Master cannot sleep, for Master has a mighty need that must be met: the need to fuckin' chill. They're hungry and whiny from being stuck unable to sleep all night. The likelihood of agitation in the morrow is too damn high. 

This is not what Robin is contracted with his Master for, but he has a feeling this isn't the weirdest or least convenient thing they're ever going to ask of him. 

Under normal circumstances, Robin would prefer to support a local stand or shop that makes and serves their own ice cream. He likes when the worker is connected to the output of their labor–when they own the means of production, as it were. This in mind, the logical course of action is for Robin to hit up Corporate Ice Cream Chain Location for Master's favorites. 

He must correct himself on that, because Robin doesn't like calling…whatever-it-is Corporate Ice Cream sells "ice cream." It is "frozen dairy dessert" or something like it. It could be neither frozen, nor dairy, nor dessert, and still labeled as ice cream. 

After a quick trip riding Robin's back like a sleepy koala, Master is sat down on the roof of Corporate Ice Cream Chain Location. He props them against the nearest clean-ish looking brick structure. While they listen to birds sing to sunrise (tweet tweet food caw caw sex), Robin condenses himself into spirit form and sprinkles into the building. 

The weak security warrants no effort. He isn't surprised by how little there is. Between his cloak and the incompetence of the camera setup, Robin can say quite comfortably nobody is going to see him on the recordings.

Corporate Ice Cream's backrooms are dismal. They're pitch black save for blinking lights on whirring machines with ominous silhouettes. Robin is definitely not scared, but he is unsettled. It helps that he has Darkvision like any shifty rogue worth his salt. Super Secret Agent Spy music plays in his head. It's a playful tune from a movie he watched with Master. It makes him feel dangerous and sexy. 

The current conditions are not dangerous, and they are also not sexy. It's cold as shit (a pleasant contrast to the outdoors, which are currently hot as shit) and that's about it.

Robin almost feels bad for potentially ruining some minimum wage worker's day. Almost. But he chose this location because it's an act against their employer. It's not his fault they're hostages under the milky boot of corporate ice cream. 

He returns to the roof with four white plastic tubs with frost on the sides. He tries to peek around them and fails. Master takes two of them, and together they escape back to their base of operations.

i always look at salieri and think what could’ve been if there weren’t rumors about him murdering mozart (the fact my sorry ass in school read pushkin’s little story about mozart and salieri and thought this shit was real bruh) and he was summoned as an actual salieri who took ibuprofen

i just want to see my child happy and healthy and honestly would’ve been funny is he was summoned as ruler

man who was as far as possible form magic and magecraft in life got summoned as a ruler because he has no desire for grail or any of this and it’s hilarious he got summoned into opposite of his initial class hfbdjdjdndjdj

Can I have some headcanons for how various servants would deal with thier master having agoraphobia, which is the fear of open spaces or places someone cant easily escape from? Its like the oposite of claustrophobia basically.

Ayyy, a number of years ago I worked for a guy that had agoraphobia. He’d pretty much go to the shop or stay home and go nowhere else if he could avoid it. 

I’m wondering if you’re requesting this because you, yourself, have agoraphobia, Anon. I appreciate your willingness to share that with me and give me a shot to write about it. Since I do say I’m willing to give mental health-related pieces so long as nobody takes it as a monolith. 

I hope this finds you well and that it reassures you a little.

(A Few) Servants With An Agoraphobic Master

Abigail Williams: Of the Servants that effectively live with Master’s agoraphobia, Abby is among the most compassionate. There are plenty of things that Abby is terrified of—many of which are things others couldn’t possibly imagine. 

Abby tries to make Master’s life easier in little ways that she is capable of. She adapts outdoor activities for indoor settings. Anything that needs to be done out of the house, she learns how to handle via Master’s nifty technology. She’s quite adept at ordering food.

In the Holy Grail War, Abby doesn’t want to bring violence into Master’s safest places. It’s hard to balance Master’s security and her own insecurities, but she’s a big girl. She’ll go out on her own to fight if she needs to. Between technology and their Master-Servant bond, she’ll never feel alone wherever she goes. She’ll bring Master whatever they need so they can return to reading books and enjoying each other’s company.

Jinako Carigiri: At first, Jinako views Master’s agoraphobia rather selfishly. Master can’t complain about what a NEET she is if they’re also kind of a NEET. It’d be totally hypocritical for them to judge her, right? 

Nope, not right. It takes a while for her to realize she’s being an ass, but she’s definitely being an ass. She knew she was selfish, but this went right over her head. And honestly, why should she be surprised by her shit take? She views things through the lens of her own comfort. How is she supposed to handle anybody else?

Jinako slowly warms up to the idea of being less of a loaf. Not because she expects it to change Master’s fears or feelings. Phobias are a serious thing. She doesn’t know how she didn’t recognize it before when her own NEET status grew from her anxieties. She sucks at being perfectly considerate, but she gives it her best shot. There is nothing on the planet that could breach her protective shell, and she’ll extend that to Master as long as she can. There is nothing she can’t protect them from as long as they stay in one place. 

EMIYA (Assassin): Assassin’s relationship with Master is simple. They give orders, he executes them. He never once questions Master’s condition. It’s not his business. He doesn’t need to know them personally to follow instructions. Something, though… Something nags at him.

They don’t nag him verbally, but their presence gets to him. He finds himself increasingly agitated by their circumstances. How wrong it is that such a young person finds themselves in a Holy Grail War when they suffer a condition that ensures their battles will always be uphill. It’s not like he minds. If anything, Master’s agoraphobia will benefit him from a tactical perspective. But he’s not happy.

He had someone once—twice, thrice perhaps—he felt obligated to protect with his life. A family, maybe. People he feared for. Those long-clipped heartstrings are the tiniest bit tugged with this Master. He’ll never tell them, lest it put their safety at risk, but… This contract is more mutually-beneficial than he was willing to hope for.

merlin is blind (headcanon)

ok so i sent this to a few of my friends but i wanted to archive it here bc it is IMPORTANT to me and maybe some other people will enjoy the headcanon. please keep in mind this is Really self indulgent and not really rooted in anything canon but the “blind seer” trope is a thing that happens in media so idk. go crazy silly.

here’s some like... tidbits on how i think it’d impact him and such. enjoy! read more bc this is a bit ramble-y.

starting this off just saying - he keeps it a secret. he Does not want people knowing this. merlin is merlin so he has to be mysterious at all times or he will Die.

i think he has trouble remembering faces and thus has trouble placing Who people are bc he can't recognise their features visually... he relies on other traits in order to know who people are, but he's Notably bad with faces... most people attribute it to him not caring abt individual humans and he plays along with this as to not raise suspicion...

the one thing he's really good at seeing is movement, and it's so good that it really... erases most people's suspicions about him not being able to see, if they have any in the first place.

his staff! it's really important!! he uses it as a white cane but very subtly... people just assume he's doing normal staff wielder things with it but every time he extends it, taps it on the ground, or relies on it for support while walking it is ALL because it is helping him figure out where things are. :)

fou! is important too!!!!!! fou ofc knows... he is very insightful :) but like fou will often nudge merlin in the right direction silently (it looks like he's just doing normal creature things... but someone who is acute ex: artoria would notice the correlation)... ofc...

his abilities as a seer are a REALLY incredible coverup. he can "see" anywhere in the present ofc!! this means he can hijack his vision... he's not exactly "seeing" in a visual sense, but the knowledge of what's going on around him (or wherever) is absorbed :D

his spacial reasoning skills suck. if you asked him to fit something into a crate in a way that minmaxed space he would utterly fail, it would take him multiple tries. he can't visualise sides of objects either, so if you told him to turn something on its side, he would do the opposite/etc...

hair is always messy which is partially bc it's Long and Fluffy but people point it out to him and he's like "what? i brushed that 5 times!!! it's fine!!!" (it's not fine)

i also like to think his hearing is really sensitive to make up for his vision (this often happens!!! it happened to me ) it's important to note he's not completely blind (as in, he can't see light), but he still is Blind... :) so yes he can see, but it's very very poor!!! ^-^

in battle, he focuses his mana and such on his clairvoyance in order to make up for any shortcomings... it’s not noticeable unless you Know what to look out for. sneaky sneaky.

people who i think would catch onto merlin being blind are: fujimaru (servant-master bond yadda yadda and also fujimaru is merlin’s scrunkle), da vinci (girlboss genius powers GO), romani (he’s very insightful... and even if he won’t admit it he’s close with merlin AND HE’S A DOCTOR), artoria (but i think it would be something she doesn’t speak up about... i can see her and merlin sharing some very tender moments though irt it bc thats his child!!), fou (he’s the seeing-eye beast and knows merlin’s secrets), karna (relevant to his lore he sees things people do not want them to see AND the father of his bff/soulmate was a blind king and like even if they don’t interact majorly it just Makes Sense), amakusa&edmond (they’ve met people like that in their past lives...), gilgamesh (he’d be a bitch about it but secretly cares and makes sure merlin is Doing OK. merlin feeds off of the banter though), andersen (duh), holmes (DUH... deduction is His Freaking Thing + he’s compared to merlin in camelot... he’d kinda be a Rude Boy abt it but means well, and he does keep the info private), and lastly bedivere (sidenote: i don’t think any of the other knights of the round table would know lol. they’re too busy being Fans of merlin aka they just... don’t realise!? silly guys).

and here’s a silly re: roman being like “Merlin’s seer abilities (eyes) suck”

The Achaean Empire

An ancient civilization that makes a conglomerate of solar systems in a faraway galaxy. They're said to be among the first civilizations of the universe as we know it, and has persisted despite the passing of time and war with other empires of the same galaxy. Among the solar systems that make the empire, stand out: Athína, Spárti, Kórinthos, Thíva, Ródos, Árgos and Siracusa.

Technology-advanced and strict, the Achaean empire has ruled itself for eons of years with the Four Cardinal Virtues: Prudence/Wisdom, Fortitude/Courage, Justice, and Temperance/Moderation. All Achaean citizens should aspire to display these virtues in the public eye, just like in their private life. Various forms of art and war, philosophy, government, science and medicine that are widespread across the universe are part of the Achaean legacy. With such a remarkable past, nothing less than excellence is to be expected from its citizens.

Theos Klironomia

Also known as the 'legacy of the gods', the Klironomia are nanomachines made of Orichalcum (a refined combination of rare metals only found on a hidden water planet: Atlantis) used to greatly enhance or restore the strength and performance of an individual.

The Klironomia plays a prominent role in the life of every Achaean citizen as it is given immediately after birth, even before the newborns are given to their mother to held for the first time. The nanomachines are the greatest difference between the Achaean citizens and individuals from other solar systems and galaxies. If anyone that isn't of Achaean descent tried to use the Klironomia for themselves, their internal organs would liquify and shut down. To be able to withstand the powerful effects of the Klironomia, the empire's citizens have been adapting and developing resistance to the negative effects for countless thousands of years. There are various imitations of the Klironomia all over the universe, but none of them are made of Orichalcum.

Even though all Achaean citizens have been blessed with the Theos Klironomia, its effects aren't the same on everyone, as some more are far more apt than others. How suited one is to the blessing of the nanomachines depends on the individual and how suited were their ancestors.

Twelve Machine Gods

Aside from the standard Theos Klironomia, specific variations exist for each of the Twelve Machine Gods, the revered founders of the Achaean Empire, with their own unique characteristics:

Zeus Klironomia: Increases all abilities of the user.

Hera Klironomia: Grants protection to the user in the form of an unbreakable shield or armor.

Poseidon Klironomia: Provides sea-related abilities to user. Used mostly by workers in charge of the mining of the Orichalcum.

Hades Klironomia: Grants pseudo-immortality to the user.

Demeter Klironomia: Provides enhanced regenerative capabilities.

Apollo Klironomia: Grants clairvoyance to the user.

Artemis Klironomia: A long-distance weapon of any shape, capable of throwing a projectile that can cut down even diamonds and return to the user.

Ares Klironomia: Increases physical strength and attack, reducing all damage by a certain percent.

Athena Klironomia: Increases all combat abilities and enhances the user's skills.

Hephaestus Klironomia: A short-distance weapon that can take any shape, known for cutting even diamonds.

Aphrodite Klironomia: Grants an enhanced power of persuasion to the user. Used mostly by generals, diplomats and politicians.

Hermes Klironomia: Vehicles known for their speed and hardness, from a bike to combat-ship, and are surprisingly light.

Dionysus Klironomia: A new type of nanomachines meant to replace the Hestia Klironomia. Still in development.

Final Notes

Just like the Theos Klironomia, the 12 (11 available) variations are injected on the body, which is what allows the user to freely materialize, modify, change shape, etc. of the nanomachines. Even if they take the shape of a shield, a weapon or a vehicle, the nanomachines are part of the individual.

The Klironomia variations aren't given as freely as the Theos Klironomia. Only those who have proved themselves worthy and have a good suitability to the nanomachines are granted the variations.

It still is impossible for an individual to have all Klironomia variations due to the limitations of the human body. It might take dozens of thousands of years for it to happen. The most an Achaean citizen (Heracles) has been registered to have is 7.

Likewise, some variations cannot be given if the citizen already has others, as the combination would have a deathly effect on the user: Hephaestus & Artemis. Athena & Ares. Aphrodite & Apollo. Hades & Demeter.

Hermes Klironomia is one of the most difficult to absorb and takes a toll on the body because of its higher concentration of nanomachines.
