Trauma: John Carter x Reader

Tagging: @kmc1989 @anna-bailey @ofsoapsuds @queenslandlover-93 @gemofspace

Summary: John makes a realisation after his confession.

Companion piece to:

Little John - You try to keep John's mind off the task at hand.

The First One Is Always The Hardest - You comfort John after the death of a patient.

Forget-Me-Nots - John wakes up hung over in a strange bed and with an unexpected memento of the night before.

Speak Your Truth - John speaks his truth in the aftermath of a tragedy.

It’s been an hour since John told you he loved you and so far your reaction has been extremely lacklustre. You’d simply uttered the words ‘OK John’ before you’d grabbed him by the arm and hauled him to his feet. He doesn’t remember putting his coat on or the car journey over here or much of anything else after that. He just knows that right now he’s tucked up on your couch, his shoes by the door and a cosy grey blanket has been tucked around him. In the background Die Hard is playing on the TV, part of a movie marathon that’s running tonight.

“So I guess we’re just not going to talk about it.” He says, his cheek pressed into the cushion as he watches the screen. “We’re just going to pretend I didn’t say what I said.”

“Pretty much.” You respond as you set a mug of steaming hot tea down on the chipped thrift store coffee table in front of him. Everything in this apartment comes from some version of Goodwill, it’s all mismatched and pre-loved. His mom would freaking hate it but to John, it feels more like home than any place he’s ever lived. “I’m not putting validity on anything you say during a period of an emotional distress.”

“Is that what you think? That I’m emotionally distressed?” He asks you, picking up the mug that’s always allocated to him when he’s here.

It’s one of those Mr Men ones from the books you used to read as a kid. He’s Mr Bump because he’s of the amount of times you’ve had to stitch him up, and you’re little Miss Helpful because you were always there with whatever he needed. He sips from it as you take a seat on the opposite side of the couch.

“Kinda yeah.” You inform him, picking up his feet and setting them in your lap. Your palm comes to rest on his ankle, thumb tracing delicate circles over the scar on his calf from crashing his bike as a kid. “You saw a woman throw herself off a roof and then had a dissociative moment. Do you even remember anything that’s happening in this movie?”

He stares at the screen where John Mcclane is climbing through a vent in a dirty white wifebeater, muttering to himself. He knows the scene, he’s seen it fifty thousand times before but he doesn’t for the life of him know how the other man got there. Just like he doesn’t remember getting here or where the blanket came from. He just knows he’s in your home, safe with his Mr Men mug.

“No… I…”

“Do you remember our psych rotation?” You say gently, the light caress of your thumb keeping him anchored in the moment. “The different ways people respond to trauma? I think this is your way of processing what happening. You just need to relax for a while, somewhere familiar, where there’s someone around who actually gives a fuck about you.”

Everything you’re saying, it makes sense. His support network back home, it’s woeful. His family hate the fact he chose to become a doctor, they don’t understand the toll it takes, how some days it’s the best job on this earth and on others… well it’s like this.

If they knew anything about what happened today they would try to leverage him into leaving, force him back towards the philanthropy and in this state, he doesn’t think he’d be able to fight it.

Coming here has taken away that burden, given him the space to breath. His mom and dad probably wouldn’t have given a shit but his Gamma, she’s a force to be reckoned with. He would have found himself seated on the board of the family foundation long before his head had even stopped spinning.

“I did mean it.” He tells you, the exhaustion seeping into his bones as the tension in his muscles begins to unfurl. “It wasn’t some trauma response-”

“And if that is true you’ll tell me some other time, not after you’ve been through something horrible.” You say firmly, squeezing his ankle to make your point. “I’m sure there’ll be candles and moonlight and other fancy shit…”

“You’re making fun of me.” He mumbles, burying his face in the cushion.

“A little.” You concede, your head tipping back to rest on the couch. “It’s been a day for me too, I gotta get my kicks somewhere.”

It’s the little sigh that captures his attention, the one that is almost undetectable. You do that sometimes when you’re stressed, it’s like you’re trying to discreetly eject the remnants of a shitty day without letting anyone else know you’re having one. He puzzles back over your shift, the glimpses he caught of you during his. It comes back to him in fragments, tiny blocks he tries stacking one on top of the other until he comes to his conclusion.

“Your paediatric patient...” He begins, tilting his head to look at you but you shake yours in response to his words.

Kids, they’re always the hardest and this one had been barely more than three months old. Shaken baby, you had told him when the two of you crossed paths in the hall. Parents were addicts, couldn’t deal with the crying. You and Doug Ross were doing everything you can but…

“Brain dead.” You tell him, gaze fixed on John Mcclane’s antics. “Parents were arrested while you were up on the roof.”

“Oh Crys…” He says, his voice filled with sorrow because he didn’t see how much you were hurting, not until now. “You said we’re in this together and here you are looking after me. Come here.”

He lifts up the blanket and pats the space in front of him, gesturing for you to take up residence there. You comply, stretching out along the length of the couch with him, your back against his chest. He drapes the blanket over you, his arm wrapping around your waist, drawing you into the shelter of his form until every inch of you is pressed against him. His cheek comes to rest against yours, the bristles of his five o’clock shadow ghosting along your jaw.

You weren’t ready he realises now, to hear what he had to say. You do this thing when you get overwhelmed, you shut down, focus on the things that need fixing, the things you can control. It’s another way of dealing with trauma and John, he’d been too in his own head to see the signs.

“No more looking after me.” He whispers as your fingers thread through his, clasping his palm to your chest where your heart beats steadily underneath his fingertips. “We look after each other remember? That’s the rule.”

I think Wade Wilson is way more intelligent than people give him credit for. Or, another character essay no one asked for :

This will be based both on comics and movies. Also, spoilers for Deadpool and Wolverine.

I think it's often said that Wade doesn't know how to read situations, as he often acts inappropriately during them. He doesn't seem to sense the mood of the person he's talking to, angering them more often than not, and he doesn't really care about watching his mouth around children, etc. There are tons of examples of Wade being 'stupid', and 'immature', blah blah blah. But I don't think that's quite true.

Wade has also numerous moments where he perfectly reads a situation. He is extremely aware of how others may perceive his scars, he figured Negasonic Teenage Warhead pretty easily during the first movie (when talking about sarcastic comments or whatever, if I remember correctly). He knows how people act and think, and he definitely knows how to assess a situation. When he got Johnny Storm killed, he knew what he was doing. He was into a dangerous situations, just having been kidnapped and he couldn't fight, not even knowing how strong and what powers Cassandra Nova had. But by turning her against Johnny, not only was he able to assess her, but also prove that he wasn't here to cause her trouble. It was a cruel and ruthless action, but it was smart nonetheless.

Besides, people often forgets very important facts about his skills. Wade is an extremely good fighter, and that's partially due to the fact that he's a master at almost every martial arts. He knows a bunch of them, and he is capable of practicing them with impeccable form. He's also a master at espionage, infiltrations, cover missions, etc. He knows how to handle a lot of different weapons, and he is canonically one of the best fighters in the entire Marvel Universe. All of those skills require a certain level of intelligence. Fighting demands to remember the different styles and techniques, as well as enough practice to switch between them easily. Espionage, infiltration, and cover missions demand someone who is capable of discretion and and ability to judge a situation, notice details that no one else would and invent on the spot creative ways to do things. All in all, he has to be extremely smart to be able to do all of that. That's also without counting the fact that he knows how to speak fluently five different languages.

With all of these proofs, it's impossible to say that Wade is dumb. But why does he acts like it?

There is no official answer as to why Wade is this way. The most you can get is that he is extremely mentally unstable. This is the result of both a bad childhood and very traumatizing experiences as a superhero. It is said he was already mentally unstable during his childhood, so I'm inclined to believe that it also has something to do with his brain in general.

What I personally believe is that Wade is someone who gets bored extremely easily. He has ADHD (not really official in the movies, but canon in the comics), and he always seems to jump from one topic to the other. His mind is often considered a mess, and he himself sometimes has trouble keeping up with it. I think that someone like him has to be stimulated at all times, because boredom is definitely the worst thing that could happen to him. Even in the last movie, he seemed to hate his job because of how boring it was, not hesitating to go back into action and becoming more and more himself again as he just do exciting things. He has always been like this, even before he got his regenerating factor. When he did his job, he wasn't always careful and often loud-mouthed. It didn't interest him to just kill people, he wanted a fight. He wanted a back and forth, a sort of game. He needs to feel in danger, needs the thrill of it.

But then he gets his mutation. Suddenly, he can't die, he can't be seriously hurt, nothing has any real consequences. And so the games became boring. What is the point of putting himself in dangerous situations if he's never really in danger? How boring it is to do a job where you're perfectly safe? The only kind of thrill he can find anymore is by having the back and forth verbally. That's when it has consequences, and people actually able to surprise him, to beat him even. Attacking by talking his is one way to not feel bored. He surprises, he shocks, he annoys, but it's always different. Even during the last movie, when he was with Logan, he clearly said they didn't need to fight, yet he couldn't stop edging him verbally, always finding ways to push his buttons.

Wade is a very bored person, with a great understanding of where the limits are. And because he's so good at finding the limits, he's even better at crossing them willingly, sometimes at the expanse of the people he loves, because he can't be bored.

(I also like the interpretation of him just needing to be at the centre of attention, but I think it's a bit more classical and has already been done and re-done. So, this one is a bit trickier and way funnier for me.)

Chris Redfield: General Headcanon

Request: "I saw your post wanting more requests/head cannons, and I was wondering if I could request again? if not that's chill lol. but if you are I'd love to hear your head canons just about Chris in general."

I had an idea to try and do two timelines seeing as Chris has been through a lot, so I did some for pre-trauma and post-trauma, hope you guys enjoy

Happy reading my lovelies

Pre-trauma Chris (before S.T.A.R.S & Early days in raccoon city) (Basically, before the horrors of the spencer mansion & umbrella’s bioweapons wrecked his life)

Optimistic but reckless – Chris was always a bit of a maverick, known for his rebellious streak in the air force before being discharged. He believed in justice but wasn’t afraid to bend the rules if he thought it was the right thing to do. He had an innate desire to protect people, but back then, it was driven more idealism rather than deep personal scars. 

Big brother mode – He was probably always overprotective of Claire, even before their parents passed. He likely worked multiple jobs to support her, possibly taking on security gigs or military contracts before joining S.T.A.R.S. when she went off to college, he definitely called way too often to check on her.

Life of the party (kinda?) – Before everything went to hell, Chris was actually more sociable. He enjoyed going out for drinks with his S.T.A.R.S. teammates, cracking jokes with Barry and Joseph, and teasing Jill about being too serious. He wasn’t exactly wild, but he had an easy-going charm that made him well-liked.

Adrenaline junkie – Even his early days, Chris had a habit of throwing himself into danger. He loved high-risk activities: skydiving, rock climbing, motorcycle racing. He was that guy who thought nothing of jumping out of a helicopter for fun.

Terrible cook – The man could survive in extreme conditions but could not cook to save his life. He either ate out a lot or relied on MREs way more than he should have. Claire probably tried to teach him, but he never really got the hand of it. 

Post-trauma Chris (post-spencer mansion, post-Raccoon city, BSAA days & beyond) (Basically, after Resident evil 1 and progressively worsening after the tragedies in Code Veronica, RE5, RE6 ect��)

Burden of leadership – After losing countless teammates and friends, Chris became more of a hardened leader. He still had a deep sense of responsibility, but it weighed on him differently. Instead of reckless optimism, his hero complex became almost self-destructive. He constantly put himself in harm’s way, believing it was his duty to bear the burden. 

PTSD & Survivor’s guilt – No matter how many missions he completes, how many bioweapons he destroys, he never feels like he’s done enough. The ghosts of spencer mansion, Raccoon city and Kijuju haunt him. He likely has nightmares about the people he couldn’t save, whether it’s his fallen S.T.A.R.S. teammates, Piers Nivans, or even enemies like Wesker, who embodied the fight he could never truly escape. 

Alcohol as a coping mechanism – During his darker moments (RE6 timeline especially), Chris turned to alcohol to numb the pain. He never let it affect him in the field, but when he was alone? He drank to forget. This was especially bad after losing Piers, Chris went completely off the grid, drowning in guilt before being pulled back into the fight.

More closed off, less playful – The guy who used to joke around and enjoy team outings became more distant over time. He still cracks the occasional dry joke, but his humour became darker and rarer. Only people like Jill or Claire could get a real laugh out of him. 

Still a protective big brother – Even after everything, Claire remains one of the few people who can get through to him. He still worries about her constantly but tries not to smother her (she absolutely calls him out when he does). He keeps tabs on her work with TerraSave, sometimes anonymously ensuring her safety.

Military precision, almost to a fault – By the time of the BSAA, Chris became even more disciplined, almost machine-like. He planned missions meticulously, trained obsessively, and pushed his body to the absolute limit. He knew that one mistake could cost lives, and he refuses to let that happen again.

Aging warhorse mentality – By the later games, Chris is exhausted. He knows he’s getting older, he knows he can’t keep doing this forever, but he doesn’t know how to stop. Retirement isn’t an option in his mind, he believes the fight won’t end until he’s dead. (Or until someone, like Claire or Jill, convince him otherwise.)

Still has a good heart – Even after everything, Chris never lost his core. He still fights for the innocent, still risks his life to stop bioweapons from spreading, and still believes in doing the right thing. He’s just a lot more battered, bruised, and wary than he used to be.

I'M BEGGING ON MY HANDS AND KNEES.

PLEASE. X-VIRUS/CODY HEADCANNONS OR SMUT. HE DOESN'T GET ENOUGH LOVE. PLEASEE.

-Just some blob on the internet (Ace😋✨)

𝑋-𝑉𝑖𝑟𝑢𝑠 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑐𝑎𝑛𝑜𝑛𝑠

A/N: I freaking LOVE Cody, and I wholeheartedly agree that he does not get enough love as the others do—which is odd considering his character design looks similar to Toby’s. Also I wasn’t sure if you meant headcanons for just him or x reader so I incorporated both, I hope that’s okay! Thank you for your request <3

Word Count: 5.1k

TW: NSFW (MDNI) (Also if you’re squeamish with any explicit content, there will be a divider that tells you when to stop reading!)

Reader is Gender-Neutral.

Remember to stay hydrated and eat plenty of food, you are loved!! ❤️

🧪 My Cody stands at 6’1” (185 cm). His height, combined with his lean but muscular frame, gives him an imposing presence.  

🧪 He’s wiry and athletic. His strength is deceptive; while he isn’t bulky, his muscles are well-defined from years of manual labor and survival.  

🧪 Dark brown and messy, often looking like he’s just rolled out of bed. He doesn’t pay much attention to grooming unless it interferes with his work.  

🧪 His eyes are a piercing gray with dark circles underneath, a result of sleepless nights and his obsessive tendencies.  

🧪 Cody’s body is littered with scars from his experiments, fights, and a hard life. The most notable is a jagged scar running along his right forearm from an incident in his youth.  

🧪 He favors dark, practical clothing—hoodies, cargo pants, and boots. His outfits are often splattered with paint, dirt, or the remnants of his experiments.  

🧪 Cody is 24 years old.  

🧪 He’s of mixed European descent, with his pale skin hinting at northern European roots.  

🧪 Cody identifies as pansexual. He’s attracted to individuals based on their personality, intellect, and connection rather than their gender. To him, chemistry and shared intensity are what matter most.  

🧪 While Cody isn’t one for overt romance, he has a deeply possessive and protective streak. If he forms a connection, it’s intense and consuming, making his partner the center of his focus.  

🧪 Born into a chaotic household, Cody experienced neglect and abuse at the hands of his mother. His father was incarcerated, and his adoptive father later met his end by Cody's own hand.  

🧪 While his “hobbies” lean toward the macabre, Cody enjoys reading scientific journals, tinkering with mechanical devices, and sketching out ideas for new experiments.  

🧪 Cody’s knowledge comes from self-teaching and observing his adoptive father’s work. He has a deep understanding of biology, virology, and anatomy despite having no formal qualifications.   

🧪 Cody forms a close bond with Ticci Toby, seeing him as a kindred spirit. They share a dark sense of humor and a mutual understanding of what it means to be an outcast.  

🧪 Masky and Hoodie tolerate Cody, though they view him as unpredictable.  

🧪 Slenderman values Cody’s intelligence and scientific expertise, though he’s wary of his recklessness.  

🧪 Cody finds Jeff the Killer insufferable, viewing his chaotic, impulsive behavior as a lack of discipline.  

🧪 He avoids interactions with Laughing Jack, whose eccentric and erratic demeanor grates on Cody’s nerves.  

🧪 Cody is calculating and observant, always analyzing people and situations. However, he has a short fuse when things don’t go according to plan.  

🧪 He frequently cracks his knuckles and chews on pens when deep in thought.  

🧪 Cody operates on a twisted version of morality, believing that his experiments serve a greater purpose—even if they involve extreme cruelty.   

🧪 Cody resides in an abandoned lab deep in the woods. The space is cluttered with equipment, jars of specimens, and notebooks filled with his observations. Though sometimes he’ll stay at the Manor and help Eyeless Jack with the Infirmary.  

🧪 He has a poor diet, often forgetting to eat while engrossed in his work. When he does eat, it’s usually something quick and practical like canned soup or protein bars.  

🧪 His signature weapon is a bat with nails embedded in it. He also carries a small scalpel, which he uses with precision.

🧪 Cody has a deep, gravelly voice that’s both soothing and unsettling. He speaks slowly, choosing his words carefully.  

🧪 He always smells faintly of antiseptic and metal, a result of his experiments.  

🧪 Cody may seem cold and detached at first, but he warms up to you over time. His affection is subtle—like brushing his fingers against yours or standing just a little closer than necessary when you're out together.  

🧪 Despite his violent tendencies, Cody is surprisingly gentle when it comes to you. He’ll lower his voice and soften his expression when you’re upset, though he doesn’t always know the right words to say.  

🧪 Cody loves listening to your stories about your life. It fascinates him, especially since his own past is riddled with chaos and pain. He quietly takes mental notes about your preferences and habits.  

🧪 On rare occasions, Cody will cook for you. While his culinary skills leave much to be desired (his food is either over-seasoned or undercooked), the effort he puts into it is heartwarming.  

🧪 Whenever you’re feeling stressed or upset, Cody will quietly sit beside you and offer his presence as comfort. He isn’t great with emotional support, but he’ll stay by your side until you feel better.  

🧪 He has a bad habit of bringing you odd “gifts.” Sometimes they’re bizarre trinkets from his victims, but other times, it’s something like a wildflower he found in the woods or a shiny rock he thought you’d like.  

🧪 Cody has a strange sense of humor and loves teasing you in unexpected ways. He might sneak up behind you and whisper something creepy, only to laugh when you jump.  

🧪 He’s surprisingly protective, always keeping you within his line of sight when you're together. If anyone so much as looks at you the wrong way, he’ll give them a glare that could freeze their blood.  

🧪 Despite his tendency to push others away, Cody allows you into his personal space. You’re the only one who gets to see him without his guard up, whether that means resting his head on your lap or letting you hold his hand.  

🧪 Cody has a fascination with small, intricate objects, and he loves watching you do anything that involves precision—whether it’s painting, writing, or crafting. He’s mesmerized by how focused you look.  

🧪 He struggles with physical affection but tries his best for you. He’ll awkwardly wrap his arms around you or let you cuddle him, though he gets embarrassed easily.  

🧪 Cody loves hearing your laugh. It’s a sound he doesn’t hear often in his life, and he’ll go out of his way to make jokes or do something silly just to see you smile.  

🧪 When you’re asleep, Cody often finds himself watching you. It’s not in a creepy way—he’s just amazed that someone like you would choose to stay with him despite his flaws.  

🧪 He has a habit of collecting things that remind him of you. Whether it’s a leaf that matches your favorite color or a broken charm that looks like something you’d wear, he keeps them all in a hidden box.  

🧪 Cody gets jealous easily but won’t admit it outright. Instead, he’ll become extra protective and clingy, making it obvious to everyone else that you’re his.  

🧪 He enjoys listening to you talk about your dreams and aspirations. Even if he doesn’t always believe in happy endings, he secretly hopes you’ll achieve everything you want.  

🧪 Cody tries to teach you survival skills, insisting that you need to know how to defend yourself in case he isn’t there. His lessons are thorough but filled with genuine care.  

🧪 He’s surprisingly good at sewing and mending clothes. If you tear something, he’ll fix it for you without a second thought, though he grumbles about it being “extra work.”  

🧪Cody enjoys taking you on walks through the woods. He knows all the hidden paths and secret clearings, and he loves showing you places he considers “his.”  

🧪 Whenever you’re scared or nervous, Cody will stand behind you and place a hand on your shoulder. It’s his way of silently reassuring you that he’s there to protect you.  

🧪 Cody is awkward with words, but he’ll often mutter compliments under his breath when he thinks you can’t hear. Things like “You’re really something, you know” or “Can’t believe someone like you puts up with me” escape him sometimes.

🧪 He tries to show affection in practical ways, like sharpening your knives or patching up your gear. He’s not one for grand gestures, but his quiet acts of care speak volumes.  

🧪 Cody doesn’t like to show his vulnerable side, but you’re the only person he trusts enough to let down his walls. Sometimes, he’ll open up about his childhood or nightmares, though it’s rare.  

🧪 When you’re cold, Cody will casually drape his jacket over your shoulders without saying a word. He acts like it’s no big deal, but secretly, he loves how you look in his clothes.  

🧪 If you ever get hurt, Cody is relentless in making sure you’re okay. He’ll hover over you, clean your wounds with an almost clinical precision, and insist on carrying you if you can’t walk.  

🧪  Cody loves it when you play with his hair. He won’t ask for it, but if you start running your fingers through his hair or gently tugging at it, he’ll practically melt under your touch.  

🧪 He has a soft spot for hearing you sing, even if you’re just humming absentmindedly. The sound soothes him, and he’ll often close his eyes and listen, letting it calm his chaotic mind.  

🧪 Cody’s past has made him wary of trusting others, but he’s fiercely loyal to you. If anyone tries to hurt you or betray your trust, he won’t hesitate to deal with them personally.  

🧪 He’s not much of an artist, but Cody occasionally sketches small things in his notebooks—doodles of you, your favorite flower, or anything else that reminds him of you.  

🧪 Cody doesn’t understand traditional romance, but he tries his best to make you feel special. He might not give you roses, but he’ll leave little surprises like a carefully wrapped snack or a handmade bracelet.  

🧪 If you’re ever upset, Cody will do whatever it takes to make you feel better. He’s not great at emotional comfort, but he’ll stay by your side, offer silent support, and maybe even crack a bad joke to lighten the mood.  

🧪 Cody has a habit of stealing little things from you—like a hair tie or a keychain—and keeping them with him. It’s his way of feeling close to you, even when you’re apart.  

🧪 He’s surprisingly good at fixing broken things, whether it’s a piece of jewelry or a faulty flashlight. Cody will sit down with it for hours, determined to make it work again for you.  

🧪 Cody loves the way your hand fits in his. He doesn’t hold hands often, but when he does, he’ll gently squeeze yours as if reassuring himself that you’re really there.  

🧪 He has an uncanny ability to notice when you’re uncomfortable or scared. Cody will immediately step in, either removing you from the situation or making sure whoever caused it regrets their actions.  

🧪 Cody doesn’t like crowds, but he’ll endure them if it means being with you. He’ll stay close, his hand brushing against yours, ready to pull you away if things get too overwhelming.  

🧪 Despite his violent tendencies, Cody is surprisingly gentle with animals. You once caught him feeding a stray cat, and he got flustered when you teased him about it.  

🧪 He loves watching you sleep, not in a creepy way, but because it’s one of the few times he feels at peace. Seeing you so relaxed and vulnerable reminds him of what he’s fighting for.  

🧪 Cody gets easily embarrassed when you compliment him. He’ll scoff or roll his eyes, but the faint blush on his cheeks gives him away every time.  

🧪 He’s incredibly observant and remembers the smallest details about you—your favorite food, the way you like your tea, or how you always hum a specific tune when you’re happy.  

🧪 Cody has a habit of calling you by teasing nicknames, though they’re never mean-spirited. He enjoys the playful banter and the way it makes you roll your eyes at him.  

🧪 He doesn’t celebrate holidays, but he’ll go out of his way to make them special for you. Whether it’s cooking a special meal or finding a small gift, he’ll do his best to make you smile.  

🧪 Cody has a low, raspy laugh that’s rare but incredibly genuine. Hearing you tell a joke or do something silly is one of the few things that can coax it out of him.  

🧪 He’s surprisingly good at building small things, like birdhouses or little wooden trinkets. He once made you a tiny figurine of your favorite animal, though he played it off like it was nothing.  

🧪 Cody is always on high alert when you’re together in dangerous areas. He’ll walk slightly ahead of you, his bat at the ready, making sure no harm comes your way.  

🧪 He doesn’t like to show weakness, but when he’s injured, he trusts you to patch him up. Your gentle care is one of the few things that can make him let his guard down.  

🧪 Cody loves quiet moments with you, like sitting by a campfire or stargazing. He doesn’t need words to feel connected to you—just your presence is enough.  

🧪 He’s fiercely protective of you, to the point where he’ll challenge anyone who looks at you the wrong way. Cody doesn’t care about making enemies as long as you’re safe.  

🧪 Cody has a habit of touching his scars when he’s deep in thought. If you ask him about them, he’ll open up, but only if he feels safe with you.  

🧪 He treasures every moment he spends with you, even if it’s just sitting in silence. Cody doesn’t say it often, but he can’t imagine his life without you in it.

🧪 Cody is well-endowed, with a length around 7.5 inches when erect and a girth that’s above average, making him both noticeable and a bit intimidating.  

🧪 He’s uncut, with a smooth, clean appearance that reflects his tendency for practicality and hygiene despite his chaotic lifestyle. His skin tone there matches his overall complexion but darkens slightly at the tip when aroused.  

🧪 Cody is highly sensitive, particularly around the underside and the base. While he’s confident and composed, certain touches can elicit sharp reactions, revealing a rare vulnerability.  

🧪 He has prominent veins that stand out when he’s fully aroused, adding to his rugged and primal appearance.  

🧪 Cody keeps himself neatly trimmed, though not obsessively so. He prefers minimal maintenance to avoid distractions from his experiments.

🧪 Cody is experienced but not overly promiscuous. His confidence comes from a natural understanding of people and anatomy rather than a long list of partners. 

🧪 Cody is extremely possessive and demanding during intimate moments. He relishes leaving visible marks—bites, hickeys, and scratches—as a way of claiming you (Or if you do it to him, he sees it as a way to be claimed in return). Seeing those marks later fills him with a deep, primal satisfaction.

🧪 His kisses are fierce and consuming, as if he’s trying to devour every part of you. He loves holding your face firmly in his hands, making sure you can’t look away from him while he’s kissing you.  

🧪 Cody has a love-hate relationship with control in the bedroom. While he often dominates, he secretly enjoys the rare moments when you take charge and make him lose himself under your touch.  

🧪 His favorite place to touch you is your neck. Whether it’s light brushes with his fingertips, possessive grips, or gentle nips with his teeth, he’s obsessed with how sensitive you are there.  

🧪 Cody has a surprisingly sharp sense of what makes you tick. He pays attention to every gasp, shiver, or moan, learning exactly how to push you over the edge.  

🧪 Despite his tough exterior, Cody is incredibly attentive to your needs in bed. He’s hyper-focused on your reactions, always ensuring you’re enjoying yourself as much as he is.  

🧪 He’s not big on verbal communication during intimacy due to his reserved nature, but if he is starts becoming feral he’ll start to let out low, raspy groans and primal grunts that are impossibly arousing–sometimes even cursing and praising you. Can you blame him though? The sound of your name on his lips when he’s lost in the moment is intoxicating.  

🧪 Cody is rough but never careless. He loves the thrill of pinning you down or gripping your hips tightly, but he’s always aware of your limits and will stop immediately if you ask him to.

🧪 His hands are calloused from years of hard work and violence, and he loves running them over your skin. The contrast between his rough palms and your softness drives him wild.

🧪 Cody enjoys experimenting with power dynamics. Whether it’s binding your wrists with something improvised or letting you take the lead for a change, he’s always up for pushing boundaries safely.  

🧪 He loves the idea of you being completely undone for him and only him. Knowing that he can reduce you to a breathless, trembling mess gives him a rush of pride and possessiveness.   

🧪 He has a habit of whispering dirty things in your ear, his voice low and gravelly. Sometimes, his words are sweet and adoring; other times, they’re raw and primal, leaving you flushed.

🧪 He loves kissing every inch of your body, especially the parts you’re insecure about. He’ll take his time showing you just how much he adores every detail about you.

🧪 He enjoys the element of surprise in the bedroom, whether it’s catching you off guard with a sudden kiss or pulling you into his arms at an unexpected moment.  

🧪 Cody loves hearing you beg for him. Whether it’s for more kisses, rougher touches, or just his attention, the sound of your desperate voice is intoxicating to him.  

🧪 He has a habit of gripping your thighs during intimacy, leaving faint bruises as a reminder of how tightly he held you. He loves the way your body fits perfectly against his. 

🧪 Cody can be a bit of a tease, often stopping just before you reach your peak, making you plead with him to continue. The power he feels in those moments is exhilarating.  

🧪 He’s fascinated by the way you respond to him. Every gasp, moan, or arch of your back feels like a reward, and he’ll do whatever it takes to elicit more of those reactions.  

🧪 Cody loves it when you wear something that’s just for him—whether it’s lingerie or one of his shirts. The idea that you dressed up specifically to entice him sends his desire into overdrive.  

🧪 He has a thing for eye contact during intimacy. The intensity of his gaze as he watches you unravel under his touch is almost overwhelming, but it’s also deeply intimate.

🧪 He’s surprisingly playful in bed at times, peppering you with teasing kisses or making you laugh before things get serious. He loves the mix of passion and lightheartedness.

🧪 Cody values secrecy in all aspects of his life, including intimacy. He prefers secluded locations or settings where he can completely lose himself without fear of interruption. 

🧪 Cody is drawn to the visual aspect of intimacy—messy hair, flushed cheeks, and lingering touches ignite something deep within him.  

🧪 Cody hides a softer side, which only surfaces during particularly tender moments. He struggles to show this vulnerability but cherishes it when he does.  

🧪 He’s particularly sensitive to touch and smell. The feel of someone’s hands on his scars or their scent lingering on his clothes can leave him distracted for hours.  

🧪 Cody approaches intimacy the same way he approaches his experiments—with focus and intensity. He thrives on exploring every sensation, pushing himself to the limits.  

🧪 Cody’s mind often wanders to darker scenarios. While he keeps most of these thoughts to himself, they fuel his intensity during private moments.  

🧪 Cody exudes confidence during intimate moments, using his knowledge of anatomy and sensitivity to take full control of the situation.  

🧪 He rarely uses words to express affection but instead shows it through physical acts, like holding someone close or lingering touches.

🧪 Despite his dominant tendencies, Cody exercises significant restraint, ensuring that his actions never cross into disrespect or harm. 

🧪 His body tends to run a little colder than average, which is reflected in his skin’s temperature. However, during moments of passion, his arousal heats him up noticeably.  

🧪 Cody’s stamina is impressive, thanks to his athletic build and endurance. He can go for multiple rounds, and his recovery time is remarkably quick.  

🧪Clean and slightly metallic, reflecting his hygienic practices and the environment he works in. There’s always a faint hint of antiseptic, though it’s never overpowering.  

🧪 He’s a heavy pre-cum producer, and it starts leaking early on, a sign of his intense arousal.  

🧪 Cody prides himself on his self-control. He can hold back for long periods to draw out pleasure, but when he loses himself, his release is powerful and overwhelming.  

🧪 He rarely makes loud noises but instead lets out deep, guttural groans. His hips buck instinctively when he’s overstimulated, and his hands tend to grip whatever’s nearest.  

🧪 Cody’s climaxes are intense and leave him momentarily breathless. His body tenses up completely before releasing in a wave of satisfaction.  

🧪 He’s not someone who indulges often, preferring quality over quantity. When he does, it’s an all-consuming experience for both him and his partner.  

🧪 His idea of aftercare is quiet but deeply caring. He’ll clean you up with a damp cloth, pull you into his arms, and stroke your hair while you catch your breath. He doesn’t say much, but his actions speak volumes. 

🧪 Despite his rough exterior, Cody is surprisingly mindful after intimate moments. After finishing, Cody is quieter than usual, his intense energy replaced with a rare softness. His idea of aftercare is quiet but deeply caring. He’s attentive, he’ll clean you up with a damp cloth and get you something to drink or eat to restore energy—or if you’re up to it he’ll even take a steamy bath or shower with you to clean further. Afterwards, Cody will climb back into bed and often pull his partner close to share the lingering intimacy, while his hands brush hair out of his partner’s face and lazily trace patterns on your skin. He doesn’t say much, but his actions speak volumes. 

🧪 These quiet moments of intimacy are his favorite, reminding him that, despite everything, he’s found someone who truly accepts him.

🧪 Kinks (Although these were already mentioned, put I wanted to create list for everyone to see ;)):

Dominance and Control: Cody thrives on power dynamics. He enjoys being in control, whether it’s through physical dominance or psychological teasing. His dominance isn’t loud or forceful but quiet and commanding.  

Intellectual Stimulation: Cody is turned on by a sharp mind. A partner who can challenge him intellectually or match his wit earns his full attention.  

Sensory Play: He loves exploring the senses. Blindfolds, temperature changes, and heightened tactile sensations are tools he enjoys using to create unique and unforgettable experiences.  

Biting: Cody is a biter, both giving and receiving. He loves the raw, primal connection that comes with leaving or receiving marks.  

Rough Play: He’s into roughness, such as gripping, hair pulling, and controlled aggression. However, he’s always careful not to cross any boundaries.  

Possessiveness: Cody enjoys the idea of “claiming” his partner, whether through leaving marks, whispered words, or lingering touches that remind them they belong to him.  

Voyeurism: Cody has a voyeuristic streak. He’s fascinated by watching reactions—how a partner’s body moves, their facial expressions, and the subtle changes in their breathing.

Praise and Degradation: He’s skilled at blending praise with degradation, creating a dynamic where his partner feels both wanted and vulnerable under his control.  

Bondage: Cody is intrigued by restraint and confinement, using ropes, cuffs, or makeshift tools to explore power dynamics and vulnerability.  

Experimental Curiosity: True to his scientific nature, Cody enjoys experimenting in intimate scenarios. He’s open to trying new things as long as they align with mutual consent.  

Aftercare: Despite his intensity, Cody is attentive and caring after intimacy. He understands the importance of grounding his partner and making them feel safe and appreciated.  

Exhibitionism in Controlled Environments: While not reckless, Cody enjoys the idea of being seen in private, controlled settings where the possibility adds an edge of excitement.  

Dirty Talk: Cody has a low, gravelly voice that becomes even more intoxicating when he uses it for dirty talk. He’s skilled at weaving both commanding and teasing tones to leave his partner breathless.  

Voyeuristic Teasing: Cody enjoys making his partner feel observed and desired, even outside of intimacy. A subtle, lingering gaze or a whispered comment can set the tone for what’s to come. 

Slow-Build Intensity: Cody loves drawing things out, building tension slowly until the intensity is almost unbearable. He thrives on the anticipation as much as the act itself.

Partners with a Strong Personality: Cody is drawn to partners who have a strong sense of self and aren’t afraid to challenge him. He finds the contrast between their strength and their vulnerability during intimacy thrilling.

Scar and Injury Exploration: Cody’s scars are part of his identity, and he’s intrigued by the marks on others. He finds a strange comfort in tracing or kissing scars, viewing them as stories written on the body.

Non-Verbal Cues: Cody has a talent for reading body language and enjoys communicating without words during intimate moments, letting movements and touches speak volumes.  

Edge Play: While careful to maintain trust and safety, Cody enjoys exploring physical and emotional edges, walking the fine line between control and surrender.

Intense Eye Contact: Cody uses prolonged, piercing eye contact to establish dominance and deepen the connection during intimacy. 

Discretion and Secrecy: Cody finds thrill in keeping intimate moments hidden, making shared secrets feel even more private and intense.  

Roleplay: Occasionally, Cody enjoys scenarios that play into power imbalances or forbidden dynamics, adding an element of fantasy to the encounter.

I HATE YOU!💢 I just watched all the dubs you've done and… I LOVED THEM!😩❤💖💕 I love how good they sound, but now I'm mad because I wanted more. Please don't forget the dubs, please🥺😳🙏.

I love you💌, but you've got me like this now:

Hehehe, anyway, I have some silly 👀questions this time:

Is the "diamond beam" ability like a beam that literally disintegrates everything in its path, or is it like a heat ray?🤔 A silly part of me imagines Ray can heat his coffee with that ability, and I wonder if it's possible. XD

Would Ray be able to love again if he decides to let MC go? Sometimes I think it's possible, but I also wonder if with that second chance he'd be different. Like, would he act differently? Would he be softer or more intense in his obsessive love? Things I ask myself on a typical afternoon sipping coffee and bread☕🥐👌🌟.

What would Ray do if MC were asexual? Let's say he wants a romantic relationship, but not a sexual one.���

What would Ray do if MC lost his memory🧠❓? And in an even more extreme situation, what would happen if his amnesia was permanent? Would he take advantage of that situation? I imagine so, but I wonder how❔❓.

Would Ray be team flesh or team blood?🤨

Team heat🔥 or team cold❄? There would be a LOT of problems if he were team heat (regardless of the scars, which are a separate factor, why I think he'd prefer colder climates to cover his scars).

If MC were the type to give his partner stuffed animals and flowers, how would Ray react?🌤💞

If MC asked Ray not to read the minds of close family members (like parents or siblings, or perhaps a very close uncle or grandparent) because he feels, in part, that his privacy is being invaded by doing so?👁‍🗨 Sometimes you have family members who are so close that they know you as much as, or even more than, you know yourself. Because of this, it can sometimes feel like reading the minds of your close family members is like invading theirs too, because that family member knows you quite well💫.

I once had the idea of ​​an OC who was basically an MC with the ability to not sleep💤. She could literally go her entire life without sleeping and she'd be totally fine⏰🤙, healthy, with no short- or long-term consequences or effects✔. Sleeping is basically just something she would do just to look normal or just to lie down⌛, all while having the energy her body stores from eating and staying hydrated. How would Ray react?

What would Ray be like if MC had a dangerous ability? We are talking about an ability that is dangerous for both others and herself, I have imagined it as an ability that makes MC absorb the negative feelings around her as a form of dark energy that can be stored, but by storing a lot of this it can make those negative feelings or thoughts of others that she has absorbed at some point mix with her own, as if they overflowed and she lost control of herself every time, becoming a beast that is carried away by those negative feelings but inside her head as if she were fighting a battle between herself and all that energy that controls her, negative feelings strengthen her, it could make her body so resistant that she could be thrown into a building and go through it with her body with barely any scratches, she could lose a limb and in less than a minute the dark energy would regenerate that limb like new or even use that energy to modify parts of her body into weapons (in the style of the symbiotes in marvel), MC would be so overwhelmed, always on the edge, between madness or sanity, Almost like a schizophrenic, tired, her treatments no longer working💣, she just wants to disappear or end her life to stop suffering from an ability that destroys her from the outside in⛓. What would Ray do? He couldn't absorb her; that's basically condemning himself to the same fate, or worse. I doubt NAHA would ever risk Ray absorbing an ability that would "taint" the path he's built for Binary Star, like the one I used as an example just now🩹.

What if… MC were only attracted to women👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩? How would Ray take it if, in this case, MC could only offer her friendship because he ultimately has no chance of being attractive to MC?💔

OMG, too much text again. Sorry.

Casual questions: How are you? Have you drunk water? Are you eating well? Are you healthy? Have you done anything interesting these days? I've been wandering around the "Final Destination" fandom a bit because I'm a fan of the series and loved the latest installment in the franchise💕. I still have hope for a seventh film💟.

I love you🐻💕. I browse here every day to see what other content I can find. I watch old content to entertain myself for a while.💫

Greeting my little Bear,

I appreciate the love/hate 😂 I have not forgotten, I promise there will be more. I have the one I’m working on recorded now I just gotta do the voice match up.

1. So the diamond beam when i think about it’s pretty much like Superman. He could absolutely control the heat level and how thick the beam is. It can slice or it can just heat. He could also cauterize a wound.Heat can absolutly take fingers or in Rays case, can destroy a full room of henchmen. 😐😬 that or warm up coffee.

2. He absolutely could fall in love again. Now, to kind of bring in a few points, I think that Ray will behave a little differently. He’d honestly be more unsure, he’d constantly try to prove himself over and over again until this new love interest proves to him that, “you don’t have to do that. Just be yourself.” Granted, you wouldn’t notice. It would be right out the gate, it would take a minute for you y to realize he’s being a try hard. He’d be more obsessed. Even if he agreed to not read your mind, he’d still do so because he can’t risk anything going wrong. Eventually though, after trust, love, and time. He’ll calm down.

3. That’s fine, Ray longs for the emotional connection, the person to person, heart to heart, so that’s not really a problem. Granted he’ll still want that kind of connection. The things is, by the book, asexual is the lack of sexual attraction. Which to simplify a little is when you fall in love with someone it’s not sec appeal, even more there is really a sexual drive. Doesn’t mean that it still won’t happen. The only possible difficulty is that, I think Ray is a more Sexual man, as in he somewhat has a need for that to feel connected. Granted, he won’t make you do anything and he’ll be reasonable. You’ll just have to find your rhythm.

4. Like the last ask, if that’s the case. He’ll treat it like 50 first dates. (See the last post to find a more in depth answer.) if you left him and you forgot? He’ll use it, use old videos, photos and what not to make it like you never left. Soooo he might manipulate. Just a little bit. Besides, no one else deserves you. What? Who said that? Who said that?

5. You know, I researched this a little this morning before answering, I got a very basic understanding. Honestly reminds me a little of DND. However, I think yes Ray has strength and what not but I think he’s more of a defense and plotter. So def Flesh. (I think that’s the right one, the one that doesn’t rely on offense and more strength.) Ray is a warrior of the mind!

6. He’s defiling a team cold. He laps just like having to get warm via coffee, blankets, etc. I bet even his suit had a cooling factor to keep him cool. He’s a sweaty man no doubt and in summer it’s even worse. My personally headcanons is he will sweat being outside because he’s just in the heat. Not just because of the sweater but because he’s warm bodied anyway. So he gets overheated easily. If he weren’t a hero and just a normal dude? He’d be more apt to have heatstroke. So yea. Team cold.

7. Honestly, me too, I’m giving this man all the flowers and little crochet projects I make. Stuffy? Heck yea! He’ll have to snuggle mine so they smell like him. (Whoa? What kind of obsessed freak would say that? It’s me. I’m freak.) he’ll love having them. They smell like you, and or they are from you. He loves that in general. He keeps everything you give him. Even birthday cards he had a whole drawer of them. He’s a bit sentimental.

8. Yea, he’ll try to abide by that rule you set. He understands why, and he’ll do his best to do just that. To do what you asks.

9. Listen, as long as you don’t ruin Rays sleep, (cause he doesn’t play when it comes to sleep.) he’s fine with that. Just snuggle him. Please. Maybe just massage his head, run your fingers through his hair until he falls asleep. Be a comfort if you are willing. ☺️ just lay with him till he falls asleep.

10. Yea, there is NO way the NAHA is risking Ray having that ability. Ray would fight to keep you happy. He honestly wishes that he could take Al that pain from you. Honestly, I’ve thought about this too, Ray having a MC that had a self destructive power. However mine was that MC had dreams that tell the future. (Kinda like criminally yours) except, that’s it, no other power. So the NAHA keeps her hook up to machines at night to read the dreams but the dreams start affecting her negatively, spasms, lack of sleep causing her to have mental strains. (Seeing things, extreme exhaustion, etc.) for both, he’d probably take you away. Take you to a little cabin. No people. Just you and him. No negative to take away besides his which he’ll try to be as cool as a bean.

11. In short, it is what it is. Ray will accept that, after all there are plenty fish in the sea. However if you are still friends, he’ll pros ably come to you for romantic advice you know, since you are a woman and are a friend and you would know better than he would. He’ll get over it. 😂

12. Awww, baby bear (hope you don’t mind the nick name.) I am so happy you’re asking. I’m honestly…doing alright. Been fighting for a job got hired on the spot today, going to be a server. Not the job I wanted but, the job I want isn’t available right now and I still have to make money. 😭 i actually HAVE been drinking water! I’ve been getting healthier physically but creating a little morning and night schedule for myself. Getting that B-12 and stuff. As for eating well, mmmm….we don’t gotta talk about that. 😂 I’ve been on my tuna sandwich train and blueberries/ strawberries. Not mix together obviously.

13. For the final destination, I watched the first two YEARS ago. Like when I was 14. After the first two movies it just felt like a copy paste and I didn’t like that, it also seemed like gore without plot. Just a “look how shocking this is!” However! I watched the new one and I was presently surprised. It had a good plot and tasteful gore. I had low expectations going and left feeling like I had watched a good movie. For movies personally, I’m on the “28 days later” loved the first two movies. Have seen the new one yet but, I’m excited.

Anyway toodaloo baby bear! Make sure you take care of yourself too! If you haven’t seen 28 days later, go for it. (honorable mention is house of wax and Midsommer. A personal fave.)

Doing more Trolls (Branch-centric ‘cuz he’s my favorite) headcanons:

Branch speaks both Spanish and Korean, he learned from the K-pop Gang and Reggaeton Trolls

Kismet all have minor scars from either getting in a tussle with Branch, or saving him from trouble (taking on a big predator-critter on his own, one of his inventions almost exploding in his face, getting into confrontations with trolls bothering him (aka Creek and co.), etc.)

YK how we see how trolls can make their hair glow in the dark in ttbgo? Branch’s eyes glow in the dark. It’s pretty rare, since most trolls don’t roam in complete darkness, like he probably did for so many years to avoid detection from predators, so most trolls don’t even know they have that capability. It allows him to see in the dark, as well as scare the shit out of anyone that might catch a glance of him (Kismet, the bros, etc.)

A continuation of the hc that Branch needs glasses, from the post linked above: Since he stopped wearing glasses at such a young age, Branch struggled a lot with both reading and writing. This resulted in him having to label things in his ration-stock with very big letters, which were often also misspelled. No one, neither Kismet nor the Snackpack, thought to correct him, since they didn’t deem it too important, but Clay was genuinely saddened by the fact that Branch had had to struggle with this from such a young age. He offers to help Branch correct the mistakes and teach him how to read and write properly, which makes Branch extremely embarrassed at first, but he reluctantly obliges when he sees how nonjudgmental Clay is about it. Clay later discovers that the main reason Branch struggles so much, is bcs he needs glasses, and not just bcs he never got taught grammar past the age of like five (around the time Rosiepuff died). This has Clay silently cursing himself out, ‘cuz how could he forget in the first place that his baby brother needed glasses?? He makes it his objective to get Branch some new glasses, which Branch shows much reluctance to in the beginning, and it takes a lot of convincing from Clay, Poppy and everyone else to get him to try it. Cue Branch seeing clearly for the first time in 20 years, and the first -and almost only thing he can comment on, is how beautiful Poppy is. Cue Poppy getting emotional.

Bruce probably has the softest hair in the world, and gets pretty upset when he learns that Branch, whose hair used to be almost as soft as his, hasn’t done any haircare other than brushing it every few weeks for 20 years. That and just taking a break and relaxing overall. He takes it upon himself to try and get Branch to relax, and tries to treat him to a bro-spa-day, but ends up going way overboard with face masks, hair rollers, sauna, whale sounds, burning lavender-scented incense, etc. It’s all just way too overstimulating, and instead of relaxing, Branch is just put in a state of overwhelming, suffocating stress. Bruce his completely oblivious to this, until Brandy points out how Branch had already accidentally crushed five coconut-drinks in his hand, and maybe, he should try and sus out what’s bothering him instead of continually handing him drinks. This leads to Bruce pulling Branch away, where they have an heart-to-heart; Branch tries to apologize at first, since he was trying so hard to keep up and stay relaxed, as to not bring down the mood, and mentions how the trolls back in pop-village would always complain that he did that, back when he was gray. Bruce is heartbroken when hearing this; for one, the fact that Branch had to endure so much (frankly a little cruel) judgement from everyone around him, when he’d just been afraid, instead of anyone helping him or taking his feelings into consideration. And secondly, that he now felt he couldn’t speak up about what’s bothering him, with the fear he’d be rejected. Bruce ofc tells him he has nothing to apologize for, and that it should be him apologizing, since he never even noticed how uncomfortable Branch was; and they continue the rest of the bro-spa-day, doing something low key, but still relaxing.

Floyd partied hard during his solo-career days, and is horrified to see his baby brother with a candy sucker (I hc them as being like drugs for trolls)

Branch clings to others when he sleeps, but only sleeps when he feels secure enough, so there’s been many sleepless nights. Kismet tries to combat this by staying with him to ‘keep lookout’ while he naps. This is how they discovered the clinging, and it later evolved into all of Kismet taking regular naps together, in an almost sleep pile (think the Croods)

Branch is a silent observer and easily notices patterns and specific quirks with the ones he’s close with. This leads to him often being a step ahead; Ablaze likes his coffee a certain way at a specific time in the morning? Branch already has it ready for him when he walks in the kitchen. Hype has a tendency to bump into a specific spot on the table every time he walks past it? Branch is there, ready to hold a protective hand over the spot when he walks by. Poppy usually runs out of scrapbooking-material around the same time at the end of every week? Branch is already waiting at her door with another unrequested ‘delivery’. Branch always returning with specific things, snacks, etc, every time he return from a run in the village, because ‘he knew they (each individual member of Kismet) liked those things thing, snacks, etc.

Branch doesn’t show physical affection very often, so when he does, it’s automatic bragging-rights for whomever got shown affection (Kismet, Brozone, The Snackpack), plus it often puts them in an emotional state. (And yes, everyone (Kismet and Brozone) is very jealous of Poppy and how much more physical affection Branch shows her)

[daylite-writes]

Ayo ayo!!! I got an angsty idea for ya!!

Imagine this:

The harbingers find out that the reader has a plot to kill them/the Tsaritsa. How does this go? How do they react?

And for even more angst;

Imagine if they were successful

(Songbird anon- New anon)

OKAY OKAY OKAY I LIKE THIS (also hi ur my first named anon!). I won’t be doing “if you succeed in killing them”, since they’re dead and therefore won’t have a reaction lmao. I also won’t be doing every Harbinger here because that’s so many words omg. Probably will have multiple parts if ppl are interested.

Wasn’t sure if the ask was meant to be yandere, but this kinda is lmao. To varying degrees for each. Didn’t go too hard on angst but oh well

HARBINGERS REACT TO READER ATTEMPTING TO KILL THEM OR TSARITSA—AND IF YOU SUCCEED? (Pt 1, ft. Childe, Dottore, Arlecchino, Scaramouche)

cw: yandere, violence, referenced death, implied kidnapping, death of reader (in Arlecchino’s), etc.

Childe - mixed results

If you attempt to kill him? Oh baby. He lives for this shit. If you are strong enough to even get close? Well, his heavy panting, wide eyes, and red cheeks convey his feelings easily. If he wins the interaction, overpowering you and forcing you to the ground, he won’t kill you. He’ll probably let you up, let you try again—come onnn. Don’t tell him you can’t continue. You wanted this, baby. Try again. If you escape unscaved, then by god he’ll be thinking about this for weeks. Blushing, refusing to wrap the scars you give him.

If you attempt to kill the Tsaritsa, Child takes it very, very badly. One thing people forget about this man is he is not loyal to the harbingers, but he is extremely loyal to the Tsaritsa. Sentient abyssal creatures tend to latch onto an idea, a “purpose” of sorts that they will hinge their entire sanity on. Without her guidance he is nothing. He will fight tooth and bone to squash any attempts you make on her life. He takes on his Foul Legacy form to fight you, and in his anger, would end up either maiming or ending you. If you survive, he will make sure it never happens again (Read: mangling you). You just had to ruin a good thing, huh baby?

Succeed in killing the Tsaritsa? He’s either killing you, or dying trying. There is no way you’d both survive.

Dottore - Takes it pretty well

Attempt to kill him? How annoying. If it’s a physical attack, he’ll simply thwart it, pinning you down, tossing you in an observation cell, or sedating you. After, he’ll probably just reduce your privileges—less access to the lab, no longer allowed to go out without him. Be a brat, and he’ll put you on a leash no problem.

But… if you're clever about it? If you're slipping poison into his coffee, or setting up traps around his lab, only to greet him at dinner with only a strained smile when it fails? How fun. He’ll let it continue until he’s bored of it, ignoring your attempts. Honestly; it’s a little cute. He’s blushing a little bit you can’t tell with his mask.

Attempt to kill the Tsaritsa? He’ll stop you. Weirdly enough, he’ll only really punish you if the Harbingers or the Tsaritsa herself noticed. Otherwise, he’ll chastise you, leading you back to his lab with his thin, sharp fingers digging into the back of your neck.

Succeed in killing the Tsaritsa? Well… damn. You gonna eat that? He’s kinda turned on. This isn’t a dealbreaker for him, unless it really messes with his plans, in which case he’ll punish you for it later. An easy way to get out of trouble with him is to just gift him the Tsaritsa’s corpse. So thoughtful! He’s never had the opportunity to play around with the remains of an archon. Hm? What about overthrowing Celestia? He’s the second of the fatui harbingers, on the power level of a god, they’ll figure it out.

Arlecchino - takes it badly

Try and kill her? Her eyes sharpen as she evaluates you, panting heavily and on your knees. You’ve proven yourself a traitor, and a bold one at that. Something so bold, to her, indicates you are not an independently acting force. There are others you work for or with. After a moment, her face softens. “I’m hurt” she says, voice raw, “But I love you. Leave and never return.” You take the chance. You have to.

It’s a trap. Her subordinates—handpicked by her—are trailing you, stalking you. The moment your guard drops and you meet with your associates, she’s got you again.

The last thing you see are her boots, languidly walking towards you. The last thing you hear is her voice, barely cutting through the screams of your co-workers. “I suppose I should kill you. It’d be fair. But I am… selfish. Don’t worry, darling, you won’t go unpunished. This will be a fate worse than death.” The last thing you feel is her claws, carding through your hair.

Try to kill the Tsaritsa? You’re called into her office with little explanation what for. Usually, it’s empty. But there are Fatui by the doors. Scattered over her desk, is the proof of your sins. An attack against the highest of the Fatui. You can’t see it, but her heart is quick, and her throat tight. She opens her mouth to speak, baring her teeth, too white, too sharp. Her voice trembles a bit, almost minutely. “You understand what this means? What the collapse of the Fatui would mean for me? For my children? And still…”

It’s a death sentence. She speaks it once, lifting her hand to signal her children to step forward. She doesn’t do the job herself, leaving the room, letting the heavy wooden slam behind her.

Kill the Tsaritsa? She’s not there at the time. Still in Fontaine while your plan gets carried out in Snezhnaya. When she gets the news, she freezes. Hardly a few weeks ago, she found the will to break character for a moment to press a kiss to your cheek before you set out on the voyage north. She ignites the page as soon as she’s done, storming to her private quarters.

Later, when she collects herself, she’d set her assassins out, correspond with any remaining harbingers, and lay out a plan for the future. For one, painful night though, she mourns.

Scaramouche - Manipulatable

Try kill him? Oh god. The monologue. You almost wished he just killed you in response. The “fourth betrayal, at the hand of his lover, cruelest of them all—” it’s a long tangent, and your body hurts from the binds. Don’t tune it out though, because the moment he notices, a jolt of electricity tears through your body. His face darkens at your scream. How dare you ignore him—he probably won’t kill you, but your leash shortens considerably.

Whether you kill the Tsaritsa, or plan to kill the Tsaritsa it’s roughly the same response. It all depends on how you treat him after. Suck up, apologizing again and again, creeping closer and closer, until you climb on his lap, whispering how you only have eyes for him. You love him. So much. Press a kiss to his cold, doll-like cheek. Say after it was all done, you were going to run away with him—it’s your best shot. He may just stow you away, somewhere where his coworkers can’t get to you. He’d keep you to himself and tell everyone he disposed of you.

If you’re unapologetic, making it clear you didn’t care for him, he’d freak the fuck out. A very dangerous temper tantrum. At the end of it, you’re hardly conscious, laying on soft blankets, body throbbing in pain, you wince when you try to move. A hand, porcelain and cold, drags you down. Stay still, he says. You’ve been an idiot and gotten yourself mangled. By him, yeah. He couldn’t bring himself to kill you though.

~~~

So… much… and i didn’t even get half of themmm aaaaa

Anyways I really enjoyed this ask, but doing something for all of the harbingers is a lot, plus this is a side blog and I’m 6k works deep in a main blog project, bleh.

OC Tag Game

Guess who just finished her ref for Artfight! Perfect timing.

Tagged by @cosmemery, and I tag.... YOU!

— GENERAL

Name: Zly

Alias: She doesn't have an alias, just Zly. This is actually a bit of a plot point because it would make sense for her to have an alias or two but... nah. She's who she is and she owns her actions.

Gender: She doesn't have the same concept of gender as we do but she uses she/her. The easy answer, to use a word we'd use and she wouldn't her gender is butch.

Age: 25ish

Spoken Language: She's fluent only in Spiral Creole but tries to be BASIC conversational in Aliqua, Desteren, and the Perch sign.

Sexual Orientation: Listen because of gender and sex headcanons the concept of sexual orientation in Spire doesn't actually exist. She likes women primarily but she's only aware of the concept of a lesbian because of human interpretations of sexuality, which she is in fact aware of, but the concept isn't really meaningful to her.

Occupation: Bound of Perch! She is bound to her gear and her community, part of an organization of community minded vigilantes who keep the city guard out of Perch. She's also a Minister, a revolutionary agent of a forbidden cult, but that's like, a side thing.

— FAVOURITE

Color: The easy answer is the red that identifies the Bound, but ask her and she likes the deep blues of the night sky.

Pastime: Talking to people! She loves just being around people and talking and hanging out. She's constantly doing something with somebody because she just loves people.

Food: Asking Zly her favorite food is like asking a mother of 8 to pick a favorite child. She loves food! All sorts of it. Some of her favorite types of foods are spicy curries, sweet pastries, and a good old fashioned stuffed mushroom. Mmmm...

Drink: She loves tea a lot, she's constantly making tea, which feels like the easy answer here, but her real favorite is something special. A friend she's made that comes through Perch's skydocks to trade brought once, and then brought it again because Zly liked it so much, a spiced fruit juice drink with a strong, unique, almost acidic taste. Apparently the fruit it's made from, called pineapple, can really only be grown well on some of the human islands.

— HAVE THEY...

Passed University: Hell no. We are not in a place where education is widespread, university is only for the extreme elite, which she is not. She has a pretty basic home education and is capable enough at reading and writing.

Had Sex: Zly has a wide, sprawling polycule across Perch and occasionally into other districts. She has had lots of sex, and will in fact continue to have lots of sex, because its fun and strengthens bonds between people, and has she mentioned its fun?

Had Sex in Public: I haven't thought about this one! I think she'd ask for both your definitions of "public", and "sex". But it's also not like Perch is known for having thick walls.

Got Tattoos: Absolutely!

And she's got even more planned! The next one will be a half sleeve that includes a coverup of R.D. Fun fact she still sees R.D. around sometimes.

Got Piercings: You know I always forget about piercings in character designs so the answer is no because I have never drawn any

Got Scarred: Yeah, she's got a lot of scars. She's gotten lucky so there's nothing super major, but she's healing from a nasty gash on the back of her arm right now from when she (successfully, she'll add) diffused an argument where one party had pulled a knife. Otherwise it's a variety of scars at a variety of degrees of faded from having an active, dangerous lifestyle and carrying weapons around with her since she was a teen.

Had a Broken Heart: I mean. Yeah. Lots of times. R.D. was definitely one of them, but sharing lots of love means lots of love will be lost. There will always be more, though.

— ARE THEY...

A Cuddler: Absolutely! She lays all over her friends, lovers, lover-friends, anyone really. She loves reciprocated physical intimacy.

Scared Easily: She stays very calm in high stress situations and is not scared easily, and when she is scared, which she will admit is not infrequently, she is good at not letting that cloud her judgement. It makes sense to be scared! Scary shit happens to her all the time.

Jealous Easily: She tries hard not to be. But when people have it easier than her, naturally, or take for granted privileges they have... it's hard not to be. She's not typically the jealous sort around relationships though!

Trustworthy: She is an extremely well known and respected member of her community who doesn't wear a mask in a group that almost universally wears masks. She better be trustworthy, because if she isn't, everyone's about to hear about it. She's true to her word.

— FAMILY...

Siblings: She has a younger sister who's just about 10 years younger, and she had an older sibling, about 3 years older than her, who died after they were drafted into the army when Zly was about 13. Her younger sister wants to follow in Zly's footsteps and be a Bound, but to be honest Zly doesn't think she's cut out for it.

Parents: She's got a bit of a complicated relationship with her parents thats uh... kinda a fair bit her fault. They've always loved her and tried their best, though everything was rough for everyone after her older sibling died. As she approached Durance age—the age all drow are required to do 4 years of indentured servitude, and the thing that killed her sibling—she ran away to join the Bound, cutting all contact with her parents, because she thought it would be best to protect her family from the legal consequences of her dodging. It wasn't until several years later that she reconnected, after feeling guilty about the situation for a good long while. She tries to keep in better touch with them these days.

Children: None, and she honestly doesn't plan to. She's not the settling down sort.

Pets: Her lifestyle is a bit too precarious for a pet, she feels, though she loves animals.

Hi!

Something, something about post-torture Griffith’s face being always nearly fully blacked out, even in moments when he seems smiling, or being �� as much as it's possible in his state — at peace. When reading first time I thought it was because of his scars, and about just not showing us how badly he was injured, but then during eclipse it's were for a first time see his face fully. When he turns to face Guts, ad a human for last time. "Yes... Out of thousands of comrades and tens of thousands enemies only you, only you... You are the only one who made me forget my dream."

We don't see anything except for two paths dried out bloody tears, and soft smile. His face is pretty much lighted up, no shadow this time.

Do you think there is some sort of symbolism, — or am I just overthinking — and just overall I would be really happy for your thoughts! (You are one of very few who actually understands Berserk, at least in my eyes.)

Hope you are doing alright, and wish you great day!

Thank you!

I assume you mean this panel?

I think there is a noticeable difference between that and, say, a panel like these:

But I don't know if I'd call it symbolism exactly.

I think in that panel at the top Griffith's expression is extremely important and therefore we're shown it as clearly as possible under the helmet. His face is still shadowed a bit imo, but it is brighter, and cleaner, with Miura making sure we can see the nuance of expression around his eyes and mouth.

I don't think his face is meant to be pristine though, either symbolically or literally. I agree with your initial assessment that the shaded areas we usually see under the helmet are meant to suggest wounds, flayed skin, scarring, that sort of thing. In the third panel I posted I think you can see that Griffith's face is somewhat fucked up pretty clearly actually. And I think that's downplayed a lot in that Eclipse panel when he looks at Guts, but you can still see a few stray bits of hatching that I think are meant to suggest scarring. But yeah it's definitely really reduced.

Miura tends to favour using his art to evoke an emotion rather than adhering to strict on-model continuity, at least at this point in the story. He's a bit looser with the details, so it fits his style imo that Griffith's facial scarring ebs and flows with what we're supposed to be feeling when we look at him.

When he looks at Guts before the sacrifice, I think the scarring is reduced to make sure his expression and his feelings are very clear, and, honestly, maybe also to make him as beautiful (and like his old self) as possible under the circumstances, to illustrate Guts' point of view, his love for Griffith, and his own sense of loss. It fits with how Miura tends to draw Guts and Griffith as hot as possible whenever they're looking at each other in significant moments lol.

Thanks for the ask, hope you have a great day as well!

CECIJI VALENTIES DAY SKINS

READ BELOW FOR DESIGN NOTES/HEADCANNONS

Design Notes:

okay first off

I think that neither of them like the scars on their own body, but they adore the scars on the other because it shows resilience, and it makes them both feel even closer, therefore their scars here are highlighted in gold

second off,,,,

smudged lipstick. on the both of them. I KNOW WHAT THEY WERE DOING 🫵🤨

ganji has kiss marks on his scars on his nose, chest, and one on his hand, while cecille has one on her chest and thigh (one on her left hand as well but its covered by the glove.). those are their favorite places to kiss one another

cecille is missing a garter and ganji is missing his thigh chain thingy, the other one has it wrapped around their hand 😭

these skins are like the,,, ceciji final boss

Personality Change:

I like to think when it comes to skins for characters, it alters their personality in a way, and I know that this is a common head cannon as well so,,, :3

they're both like... freaky in a non freaky way... idk how to explain it

always flirty, teasing, kiss each other when they can, both EXTREMELY dramatic and poetic with their words... so sweet to the point where you get cavities....

they're so in love that they make each other woozy and lightheaded from just holding hands, slurred words and gentle praises, and when they kiss?

forget it. they're probably passed out on the floor

default ganji isn't the biggest fan of pda. though, eternal promise? he does not CARE

he needs his wife and her needs her NOW!!!!!

like, if they're decoding they'd have their sides squished together or would extend their legs so they be touching

oh my god.

both of them are so... posessive...???? but they're rather polite about it, at least in front of other people...

you thought Ganji's jealousy was bad before hand

lord look at him now

like if shes getting healed he'd just swiftly tap the person with his bat and say, "shoo. she dosent need you." And smile down at them innocently.

if the survivor just keeps healing her and the timing isn't urgent, cecille literally rejects the healing and moves closer to ganji and kneels down to get healed by him.

cecilles jealousy does show much more often in this skin, seeing ganji get healed by someone else when shes right there upsets her, especially if its a survivor who dosent have a healing buff. if ganji gets hit again and she heals him, shed tell him something like, "you know I do a much better job than they do when taking care of you. you only need me."

its safe to say that their tummies get butterflies when they're possessive 😭

if they be regularly kissing mid match and someone says, "theres people here, yknow.", they're getting ignored neither of them really gaf and they keep smooching

if the hunter is friendly they probably giggle and run away to the basement to make out or smthn idk they're lowkey freaks

both in general are very bold and very confident, the clothes add onto it. they both know they look good and will put on a show for the other if they're around. wether It comes to kiting, saving, or just simply running by.

I like to think that its cute that they were getting dressed to put on the outfits and then they were absolutely fucking clocked by how good the other looked when they finally changed, they probably started kissing like crazy (hence the kiss marks and smudged lipstick) and ganji pulled off cecilles garter, kissed her thigh, wrapped her garter around his hand, and took off his gold chain on his own thigh and gave it to her.

(im ngl this skin might have been when ganji realized hes a thigh guy. shout out to thighs)

Okay I finally wrote like, whole bios for Mors and Clover

Paragraphs of writing below 🫡

STCR-H1304 "Mors"

Mors is the Storch unit assigned to lead an investigation into Imperial spies in the Nation’s Vinetan facility H13-Hesperides. She is partnered with Kolibri Clover.

She is infamous as the unluckiest unit in the facility; more accidents, injuries, and even deaths have happened under her command compared to any other. Mors’ most notorious incident happened at the end of her mentorship with the highly-respected STAR-H1301 “Rüstung”. While chasing a Gestalt, a hallway suddenly collapsed. Rüstung was able to push away Mors, saving her life, but was crushed under rubble, something which Mors forever blames herself for. In that same accident, Mors’ left eye was hit by the rubble, destroying it, and could only be replaced with an older model, leading to occasional glitches in her vision. It also left Mors with a noticeable scar on her face and a drooping left eye where the synthetic skin couldn’t be replaced.

Mors is strong and straightforward, in words, actions, and thoughts. She’s almost constantly frowning, made more intimidating with all her scars, and the only time anyone has seen her brighten up has been around Clover as their relationship deepens. After Rüstung’s death, Mors rarely gets extremely angry; she’s tired and grumpy but lacks a lot of the “fire” that the other Storches have. Mors is always at least a little on edge and rarely, if ever, feels truly relaxed, along with having poor self esteem and a bucket load of survivor’s guilt all due to her bad luck. Despite this, Mors refuses to completely give up, even if it’s just because she feels like she would be wasting Rüstung saving her life.

Mors falls for Clover first due to a combination of Clover being the only one who doesn’t treat Mors differently for her bad luck or past incidents and that their shared interest in reading finally gives Mors a chance to drop all the history and mythology facts she's memorised. However, Mors deeply fears her bad luck striking and Clover getting hurt or worse, causing Mors to push down her feelings and attempt to keep Clover at a distance until they eventually get together. Mors is incredibly loyal to and protective of Clover to a degree becoming unhealthy, but when no one else in the facility genuinely trusts her, it was inevitable.

KLBR-H1307 "Clover"

Clover is a member of the newly arrived Kolibri cadre assigned as the main support unit for the spy investigation in H13-Hesperides. She is partnered with Storch Mors.

Clover takes her job seriously; she is confident, stubborn, and very willing to prove her abilities to those who underestimate her. Clover is skilled at coming up with strategies as well as improvising on the fly, aided further by her bioresonance. She also has a very good “sixth sense” and almost seems to react to danger before it happens at times. Clover says this is simply a byproduct of her bioresonance and nothing more, but the rest of her cadre treat her as a lucky charm of sorts. Originally, Clover wasn’t supposed to be a part of the Kolibri cadre sent to Hesperides, but production issues led to her becoming the unintentional final member of the group. Clover doesn’t want to admit it, but she feels like she has to do more to prove her worth as a member of her cadre (though from no fault of either herself or the other Kolibri).

Along with being exceedingly stubborn, Clover prefers to focus solely on her work, especially just after she arrives at Hesperides. She is identified through her always messy hair. For Clover, it’s simply not something she considers important, and she usually ignores or forgets about it after prioritising her tasks. Her favourite books to read are mysteries and she always tries, and usually succeeds, in solving the book before the reveal. Being a new unit, Clover hasn't quite gotten used to the bustle and constant different thoughts throughout Hesperides and occasionally gets overwhelmed, getting headaches and exhaustion. However, Clover refuses to let this stop her and disregards her own health to keep working.

Clover appreciates how straightforward Mors is, being willing to simply speak her mind and act accordingly, and comes to trust Mors’ judgement and experience as a protektor. She also enjoys being able to chat about what they're each reading and finds Mors’ knowledge fascinating. Mors is also the only one able to stop Clover from overworking herself. At first, Clover utterly denies her attraction towards Mors, considering it a conflict of interest and distraction to the assignment, even when she’s fully aware of the fact that Mors and her’s feelings are mutual. Eventually, Clover realises that she’d rather have happiness over trying to prove her worth.

ok but i saw an ask on your feed talking about pretty boy jason and i agree hardcore! i'm such sucker for pretty boy jason and you can pry it from my cold dead hands. while i think he has some facial scarring, i don't think it would be any more than any of the other bats? he wears a helmet for fuck's sake, so. i always hate when people depict jason as ugly with heavy scarring on his face and the rest of the bats as flawless (as if scarring makes someone ugly).

like do people forget that dick and jason canonically look really similar?? and if dick is considered handsome, then logically jason must also be?? i love the idea of jason taking off his helmet and people being so thrown at how fucking pretty he is. ugh.

my theory (i may be thinking about it too much), but i feel like people depict jason as uglier or more scarred than the rest of the bats because they feel like his morals are a more grey area. there are studies that show people associate morality with physical appearance and because jason has questionable morals, people write him as less attractive than the other bats. the bats are righteous with good morals = beautiful people, whereas jason kills to protect others = must be ugly.

i want to say somehow classism links into all this as well, but i'm probably being too cynical and reading too much into it. although, the way jason is written as a stupid brute sometimes has me suspecting classism hm.

omg yes to everything

i'm all for jason having scars, i love it, but i also think he would have less facial scars than the other bats. jason most definitely looks extremely young. he's barely out of his teen years and you're telling me he looks like almost 40 year old bruce wayne? even him looking older than dick is a stretch. they have a good 6 years between them.

i don't care if jason's ugly or pretty but i mean it's just not possible to be unattractive if he was physically similar to dick in his robin days. coming back to life doesn't erase what jason used to look like-- he doesn't have a new face. if anything, his face would look even younger/"prettier" (since people equate beauty with next to no facial flaws) because of the lazarus pit removing any scarring he had from both his childhood and robin days (this is considered during the period he was back in gotham).

you're definitely right about the simply put "bad people=ugly" theory. it really just depends on the artist in charge but it's still questionable when jason is drawn as this harsh, extremely masculine brute in comparison to the other bats. i love his character design, i love that he's rlly muscular and scary! but i also like considering why he's drawn like this and why dick/bruce are the same but are given more grace.

PERSONAL STRIKER HEADCANNONS ♡‧₊˚

(general, romantic, physical.)

note : ahh i’ve been wanting to write about him for a while :,3333 my little snake dude !!!-!-!!—!! i freaking love him sm !! might write about him and my oc sooooown;)) this isn’t proof read sorry:(

THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR HELLUVA BOSS EPS IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY WATCHED THE SHOW.

General

୨୧ I feel like Striker would be demisexual/romantic. He’d probably only be intimate with somebody after he put his whole trust and faith in them. It’s implied by S2 Ep4 that he’s lost the people that he cared about before, so It’s an explanation for his hostility. I also think he’d be Bisexual like js look at that one scene in Harvest Moon like i know he was trying to manipulate Blitz butttt;))..

୨୧ Loves mud fights and fist fights, won’t elaborate on this;).

୨୧ While rewatching Harvest Moon Festival, Striker looks a bit old fashioned and traditional compared to the other Imps. So i believe that he def gets his style from watching old western movies when he has the time.

୨୧ Constantly trying to get money for business phones, but he always breaks all of them in a fit of rage (a little canon).

୨୧ Fucking loves Bombproof with every fiber in his body and treats him like a baby in private, also I feel like he’d own more horses and call them his family.

୨୧ FAWKING LOVES HORSERIDING COMPETITIONS!!!! he almost always wins and then shows off Bombproof but never lets anybody touch him.

୨୧ Bombproof is def his main way of transportation but he’d probably have to drive a car once in a while. (he’s absolutely reckless and his vehicle is literally on life support and barely even working)

୨୧ His gold tooth is a souvenir and shines insanely bright.. he also wants to lose more teeth to replace them with prosthetic gold ones.

୨୧ Decent penmanship, despite his reckless and crazy personality. It’s not the best.. but at-least it’s legible…

Romantic

୨୧ In the scenario that he’d be in a relationship with somebody, he’d probably be a bit harsh/ or even cruel at first. He hasn’t experienced that type of shit in a while so he’s grown to know intimacy as a stranger. Striker has a tough shell.

୨୧ Once he’s warmed up to that person, he’d be super overprotective. He doesn’t want to lose another person, and to experience that grief again. Striker wouldn’t be the perfect partner because he still has some flaws within his personality due to being previously scarred, but he’d def ensure that the person he’s romantically involved in is comfortable and reciprocates the same feelings as well.

୨୧ Overall, Striker’s a bit inexperienced with romantic concepts but not completely unfamiliar with it. He wouldn’t mind showing affection, such as occasional cuddles or words of praise.

୨୧ also extra if he were to be your roommate, he’d be extremely messy.. like look at his lair shit is everywhere 😭.

Physical

୨୧ DEF MORE ROUGH AND MESSY HAIRRR. Work gets in the way of his personal hygiene and sometimes he forgets to cut it, making it grow a bit longer. Also fighting takes a lot of effort so no doubt it’s messy 😭.

୨୧ Longer gloves, maybe even normal non-fingerless ones. Striker kills people for a living and he’s legally wanted so I don’t think he’d leave his fingerprints behind that easily.

୨୧ Doesn’t always fight with his jacket, sometimes fights get messsyyy and he doesn’t have the time to keep washing it.

୨୧ okay sorry if I get bashed on this but I prefer norman reedus as his va.. NO HATE TO EDDD I FREAKING LOVE HIM BUT I LIKE THE HIGHER, RASPIER VOICE..

୨୧ snake-imp. Personally I don’t believe Striker to be half shark but everybody has their own headcannons. I also think he’d possess more animalistic features, such as moving around more snake-like and slithery.. def does this to confuse his targets,, like one moment he’s here and then u blink and he’s literally gone.

୨୧ honestly I feel like he’d have more scars on his body, especially his forearm/general arm area. He’s a literal assassin it’d be a little unbelievable if he didn’t have any remarkable scars.. and I also feel like he’d have one specific scar he’d show off and forget about all the other ones he has. but this is just my humble opinion!!!

♡Kaito (Vocaloid) x Reader/Master HCs [4]♡

Hey guys! As many of you know, April is Sexual Assualt Awareness Month. I myself am a SA survivor with (ongoing evaluation, but and I quote "very likely") PTSD, and I take a lot of comfort in the idea that my favorites would take care of me since many people in real life who assured they would have failed to do so. I've been... kind of afraid to post these since they are very personal to me and I wasn't sure what kind of response this would envoke. If this doesn't really resonate with you, I appreciate the fact you're willing to read through it anyway. If it does, I hope it brings you as much comfort as it brings me.

So For the Fourth installment of this series, I'd like to write about Kaito taking care of a SA survivor with PTSD symptoms similar to mine.

I think this goes without saying, but CW for mentions of SA and talk of PTSD-Related things.

☆When you finally open up to him about what happened to you, it breaks his heart. He can't believe someone would even think about doing that to you.

☆Kaito is extremely considerate of your boundaries. He’s not one to push or try and “make you get over it,” if it makes you uncomfortable he wants no part of it.

☆ Kaito is also a fantastic listener. If you need to spill and cry out about things that have happened, he’s going to hold you close and give you all the comfort and love he can. Moving forward is not always easy, especially when memories plague you. He’s going to do his very best to comfort you and remind you that you’ll always be safe in his arms. And it doesn’t matter how many times he has to tell you that, he always will without fuss or question. He wants to make you feel as safe as possible and understands that the traumatic memories can and will come back to haunt you, oftentimes against your will.

☆Speaking of, you having flashbacks or resurgances of traumatic memories are never a “mood killer” or off putting to him. It’s something that unfortunately happens, and that’s okay. If you need physical space during these times, he’ll happily give it. If you’d rather have him hold you close and hug you until it passes, he’ll gladly oblige to that as well. Whatever helps you is what he’s going to do.

☆ If you’re the type who wants to reclaim what has been taken from you, he’s gladly going to do whatever he can to help you, on your terms of course. He understands how hard this is for you and how important reclamation can be. If at any point things go too far for you, he’ll gladly stop right away no matter what. YOUR comfort and safety comes before his enjoyment.

☆ If you’re completely sex repulsed, he’s 100% okay with that too! Kaito loves you for you after all. Being a part of your life is more than enough to satisfy him to begin with.

☆He'll always, always, always be there for you. No matter what. You could tell him anything about what's on your mind and why it's bothering and he'll sit there and listen and talk you through it no matter how in depth or graphic it is. Kaito loves you unconditionally no matter what. You'll always be his darling despite your battle scars.

☆Kaito thinks you're incredibly strong and brave at the end of it all, you're still here despite everything and he's so proud of you for continuing to push forward. And he'll never let you forget that he's proud of you either.

Well, that's about all for this post. Thank you so much for reading through to the end. Again, reiterating these are based off of things I personally have to deal with in terms of trauma-related memory resurgances and things that would make me comfortable and I understand that may not be the same for everyone who's gone through something like this. Remember to take care of your friends who are survivors, and to take care of yourself as well if you've gone through this hell as well. Stay strong out there, I believe in you and so does Kaito!

Mumbo day! Our wonderful fan fan. Also featuring ConVex, playing him like a fiddle.

AKA how DID Mumbo-redstone-Jumbo end up the herbalism teacher?

(AKA how Mumbo was tricked into studying herbalism, which would /finally/ tick his fourth mastery box, and gain him the title of archmaster. The enchanters all tend to forget other magic exists.)

"Mumbo Jumbo, my good man, just who I hoped to see."

Cub slides an arm around Mumbo's shoulders, steering him away from the corridoor and into a paticularly shady looking office.

Not that a shady office is a problem, of course! Mumbo has been in plenty of shady offices, even owned a few himself. As a teacher of demonology Cub probably should have a shady office! A dark one, even, possibly even rancid; the office just being shady is positively respectable, given the circumstances.

It's just that Mumbo had been wanting to get to his /own/ office. Or, well, Grian's office, given that he has yet to have one assigned. That, and they have a little rule that Cub is a little scary. Even though Scar is there, sat looking a little too smiley and polite for comfort, that does not make Cub unscary. It just makes Scar scary, really. And Scar makes Cub scarier. Mumbo does sometimes wonder if this is how other people feel when they see him and Grian together, but that would be quite silly. Ridiculous even! Mumbo has, to his knowledge, never eaten a soul.

"Ah, um, hello Cub! Scar. Did you gentlemen need me for something?"

Mumbo looks between the two - obviously yes, if the thin grins are to be understood, but he cannot possibly think that; Mumbo has been travelling between cycles, not even causing trouble! If Doc had wanted to speak to him well, then, that would make sense, Grian always got him into trouble with Doc, but Cub?

"Oh it's nothing, we have a little bit of a problem," Scar takes over. "You see… the shadow magic department has been short of staff, recently, but it's also very popular these days! So my good friend Cub, here, he asked if I'd come help out! Which of course I will, I'd never turn down a friend in need, but I can't really both work here and teach animal handling."

Mumbo doesn't like where this is going.

A little too polote to say that, he just nods his head.

"Now, now, Scar, don't scare the poor man," Cub picks up, slippong his tongue between his teeth as he speaks. "Mister Bee-Double-Oh has already agreed to take those classes. He has already found cover for most of his other responsibilities, but herbalism has proven more difficult. We thought - maybe Mr Peace Love and Plants might be interested?"

A joke.

That had been a joke, and two cycles ago at that. It's not that Mumbo cannot see the logic - if his numbers are correct, and his numbers are one of the things Mumbo is proudest of, then all of the people qualified for the position are already extremely busy.

But him?

Herbalism?

Peace, Love, and Plants had mostly just been a game he played with the rest of the crew. Even in his brief phase as a hippie he hadn't really studied plants, more just learnt via trial and error which were going to kill him - Scar, needing to be careful of his medications, had done more research than him!

Mumbo, then, means to decline; it would be silly to do otherwise, and definitely cause problems down the line. The students would be very disappointed in-

His poor students! There are students returning this cycle, just because they wanted to study under him - it's the entire reason he's here so early, so he can teach some of the advanced enchantment classes for those few.

"I already have classes to teach," Mumbo glances between Cub and Scar, desperately trying to guess who will be more sympathetic.

"The timetable will be arranged so you can still teach your special classes," Cub informs him. "We've a similar agreement with Bdubs, so he can keep the module on megaflora."

Well. That's one module Mumbo doesn't need to worry about, but doesn't megaflora sound interesting? He thinks so. Maybe he'll read into that anyway.

Despite declining the offer. Because he is, of course, going to decline; he had plans for his reduced schedule! Like holidays! Sightseeing! Maybe dabble in some local politics?

... That is, of course, not what comes out of his mouth; nothing is ever really that simple, is it?

"Oh, um, well, I suppose I should get studying, then? Plants, is it?"

Cub and Scar smile at him, thanks on their tongues.

As Mumbo is steered out of the office, he is left with the distinct, but obviously false, impression of them both having just a few too many teeth.

I am demanding answers for questions 1, 12, 19 about Dirge. NOW!

o7 IM ON IT!!!

ask game from here!!

1. What was the first element of your OC that you remember considering (name, appearance, backstory, etc.)? 

So, from the get go I was going to make a Dark Urge. I had just finished a playthru as my Bard Tav, and I wanted to do a D!Urge before I tried any of the origins. From there I just went pure self indulgence, making a Tiefling Warlock (which is my go to. Very "Daring today, aren't we?" for me.) and went Great Old One for psionics cuz I wanted to go ham on tadpole powers. And then I hopped into CC!

I immediately decided on a blue and black theme to contrast Orin's red and white, because I adored her on my Tav and really wanted to emphasize her importance and contrast to D!Urge, and then I just went with vibes from there. Dirge ended up being very easy to design in CC, significantly faster than my Tav, with most of his facial features just falling into place (his scars, his tattoos, his eyeliner, his horns, his hair). He has a very strong design+silhouette that all kind of formed together into a cohesive image at the same time. Very fun and distinctive!!

12. What have you found to be most difficult about creating art for your OC (any form of art: writing, drawing, edits, etc.)? 

His goddamn diction!! I forget words VERY easily (part of why my mom suggested I look into dyslexia), and while Dirge has a very clear character voice, writing how he talks is at least 60% me googling a word i remember the meaning of but not the word itself. He speaks very eloquently, but in a casual, habitual way thats very informal, so while I know the sentence I often struggle with getting the exact words right.

Damn well read bastard...

19. What is your favorite fact about your OC?

I answered this one here! But I love a lot about Dirge so you get my next fave fact.

I love that despite having OCD, none of it is Organizational. Dirge is extremely fussy and fastidious about camp and constantly corrects the placement of random items purely because hes neurotic about it. He's constantly doing shit like adjusting the mugs to all face the correct way and point their handles all in the same direction.
