#hetalia: headcanon (char)

[unhetalia]

I cannot see Arthur as anything other than a horny wolf in gentlesheep's clothing. He's always in impeccable, tailored suits and he tuts over Alfred showing up in jeans and a pastel pink cropped hoodie but he'll still step forward to open a door for him ... and then checks out his ass when Alfred walks through.

But despite being a raging pervert and horndog, he doesn't come out and ask people to fuck. It's all a series of rituals involving smirking and making subtle but pointed innuendos until his target is red in the face and desperate for him. Then he makes a comment about bathrooms or heading off back to his hotel. His success rate is nearly a hundred percent. NEARLY, because —

Alfred is the complete opposite of Arthur. He's no distinguished gentleman - prefers jeans and hoodies and his beaten up converse to suit and ties, and he rarely ever thinks about sex unless he's actually having it. Not that he doesn't get horny - he does! But his mind tends to be occupied with a million ideas and plans and sex is... not one of the things that'll come up in his head during the day.

It means that innuendos and flirting tend to go over his head - he can read conflict in the twitch of an eye and friendship in the tilt of a head, but sex is his blind spot.

So, unstoppable force (a horndog Arthur who gets sex without ever having to actually ask for it) meets immovable object (an Alfred who is blind to anything sexual out in the wild).

It's been one hundred years and Arthur has never succeeded in bedding Alfred.

Alfred is patiently waiting for Arthur to show him he's interested.

S L I M E for the fandom asks

SLIME? SLIME, you mad lad. All right. :P

(Fandom meme ask seen here)

-

S - Show us an example of your personal headcanon (prompts optional but encouraged).

England's favorite movie genre is *Horror,* though less of the hack-and-slash, but more of the thriller and suspense types. He's not ticklish. He's also a cuddler. Wait, aren't all those canon...? 😉

Okay, fine. For Austria, I headcanon him to need a cane, and he may have some trouble/flare-ups with moving/moving quickly and he needs a patient, easy-going companion. He's also a ‘One Person I Need and One Person Only' kind of guy, but if there's a +1, he won't complain too much.

I used to headcanon the hair curls/cowlicks on him, the Italies, America, etc. were like whiskers on a cat. They use them to feel around or sense somethings in the breeze. Or something.

This asks for a personal headcanon, you get a bunch.

L - Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves (chars you’re neutral on are fair game, as are chars you dislike).

I don't hate any of the canon characters! I only hate Uke England and he's not canon so This one's a bit tough. I'd say I'm leaning on the positive side of neutral with anybody with not a lot of screentime in a large cast such as this.

Uh, let's just grab someone random—Bulgaria. He seems like a funky little fellow (affectionate). I imagine he cosplays with Canada and Japan. He's just a dude trying to get by in a crazy world. 🙏

I - Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?

Stopped me from liking any fandoms? No, but I do have some fandoms blocked so they don't clog up my dashboard. Some fandoms I'm okay peeking over and getting the popcorn, like Good Omens. That seems like a good time. Other fandoms I don't care about in the first place, such as Game of Thrones, or Homestuck.

M - Say something genuinely nice about a ship that you don’t ship (or its shippers, or anything related to you).

No prob! As much as I don't like some things, I always try to remind myself of any good little nuggets I can find that would make people like it in the first place. Always good to have all the information before seething over something properly.

I don't ship RusPru, Russia x Prussia. But that makes some damn fine fun times in Cardverse. Always a fan of a jokester messing around with the monarchs.

Also Prussia, as cocky and on-top-of-the-world as he made himself to be, brought down and scared of somebody else...hmmm. :) That's a good thought to chew on.

E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what?

Back in the Day™ I've done nothing but write crack fics. Nowadays, I have an itty trilogy of the Allies all sharing a tent (omg and there was only one tent) that I'm quite proud of, it's exactly like an episode of Hetalia, and that is cracky and hilarious on it's own!

Or. You know. A whole-ass USUKUS monsterfucker series.

Genoa was a brunette girl who collected amazement and boredom. Genoa opened her dark lips to macaia's warm blow.

Genoa, also known as Giambattista, is the eldest of the bunch being 25 years old.

He's 176cm (5'9'') tall and he's quite fit and thin, with strong arms.

His pale face is enclosed by black, wavy hair , that falls over blue eyes; the picture is completed by an upturned nose.

More Hetalia Sitting Headcanons except I deleted my older ones so dont look for them:

America: Bitch has never sat in a char correctly. His most common way of sitting in a chair is when both legs laying over one arm of the chair and his back resting on the one across from it

China: Dudes so old he has to have pillows for his back and butt in chairs

England: ^^ But he doesnt ever bring the pillows bc he always forgets

France: with one leg crossed over the other

Canada: Um...Who??

Russia: He straight up just stands the entire time.

England headcanons (pt. 2):

part 1 |

Out of all the Nations, Arthur is the wealthiest - a combination of the relationship he had with his monarchy, his years as a pirate, and being really good with investments.

Arthur is a knight, both ceremonially and literally. (Alfred finds this awesome and also incredibly sexy, but refuses to admit it.)

Arthur is an amazing gardener, and pretty much grows everything he needs. Unfortunately, no matter how fresh and healthy his vegetables are, they lose all nutritional value once he tries to cook them.

When Alfred comes over, he sneakily batch cooks a few different meals so Arthur can enjoy home cooking under the guise of YOU HAVE NO FOOD AND I'M STARVING, ENGLAND. Arthur's figured Alfred out, but always plays along.

Arthur's an ass man; he has a mental ranking for all the Nations, and refers to them in his notes by that number. You can guess who number 1 is, I bet. (France was initially furious at finding out his own ranking, but conceded that what truly made him special was not his derriere, but what was on the other side.)

His canines are very prominent, and it can be quite disconcerting when he grins or shows his teeth. Antonio calls him the English Devil behind his back, while Gilbert sometimes calls him Count Kirkland (to his face).

Big feet 😏

Banned from like, ten bars in London for brawling. The last bar he got banned from was because some guy tried to hit on Alfred while he was trying to drag Arthur home.

[unhetalia]

England headcanons (pt. 1):

Chain-smokes like a motherfucker. Alfred, who doesn't smoke and pretends very hard to think smoking is disgusting, hasn't yet realised where his secret smoking kink comes from.

Currently works for British Intelligence/has infiltrated his own government.

Carries around either a cane or umbrella that hides a sword even though he has never ONCE had to use it. He just feels more comfortable having a sword. (He does also carry around a gun, which, in contrast, has been used often.)

Also carries around his own pen, and absolutely loathes the thought of using someone else's. The pen is a first edition Michel Perchin Serpent in Champagne LE Fountain Pen given to him by Alfred - only ten were ever made and it cost a cool 8k. While Arthur has more valuable things - especially from his time as a pirate and back when he personally knew his royal family - the pen is still one of his most prized possessions.

His favourite tea is actually French Earl Grey - which is Earl Grey with rose petals. Not actually French? But Arthur's still pretty annoyed about it.

As mentioned in a few of my other posts - Arthur is incredibly physical and has kept up with sword fighting and various martial arts over the years, and regularly goes to the gym. He's very disciplined about it.

Tends to eat only for fuel as opposed to enjoyment whenever he's left to his own devices.

If pressed, Arthur will admit his best friend is Francis. Francis would say the same about Arthur.

(Despite their individual body counts, Francis and Arthur have never slept with each other.)

(Arthur doesn't have a lot of friends and has a strained relationship with his siblings, and has always felt that people don't like spending time with him. Even when he was on top of the world, working with his government to become an Empire, he still felt like an underdog.)

On that note, Arthur worked with his government longer than the other Nations, and was a huge part of establishing the British Empire. It made his already fraught relationship with his siblings even worse, and he regrets a lot of it.

Nations get scars very rarely, because very few things have the ability to give them scars - magical weapons is one of those things. Out of all the Nations, England has the most scars.

England is amazing at knitting and crochet, and he gifts Francis crocheted figurines from French cartoons for his birthday every year, which Francis adores. He also knits Canada scarves and gloves and beanies whenever he remembers him.

One of Arthur's most embarrassing memories is getting gonorrhea during his pirate days. He didn't have sex for a month after his healing kicked in - a record back then - and he became a lot more diligent in procuring and using the linen sheaths they used as condoms at the time.

Three of Arthur's back molars are implants made of real gold.

Alfred is the first (and last) person Arthur will say he's ever fallen in love with BUT the closest he's come is with another American - a nurse that took care of him during World War I. She was blonde and blue eyed and once shouted Arthur down when he insisted on continuing to fight even with a bullet lodged in his shoulder. She completely disappeared in April 1917, just before the Americans officially joined the war. He sometimes wonders what happened to her.

[unhetalia]

I wanted to do those posts about how we imagine each characters' features, then realised there were so many characters I wanted to do them for! Decided to start it off with the NA sibs.

America:

Baby faced. Soft, delicate features and slightly rounded cheeks, which makes his pouting very effective. Long eyelashes, big eyes. America The Beautiful is real and he is a menace. Physically 19-20, but his IDs claim he's older.

When he attends world meetings he has to wear a government approved wardrobe, and even the glasses he wears is carefully chosen to make him look older and more authoritative as a superpower. He absolutely wears insoles that make him taller (his actual height is 177cm/5'9, like in canon 182cm/5'11) and his suits are padded to make his shoulders look wider. Even the bomber jacket was chosen to create that effect.

His hair and skin have a warm undertone, giving him a very California look. His eyes most closely match A17 blue.

Despite America's constant preoccupation with his weight, it would be a stretch to call him chubby. He doesn't have abs, and his stomach is soft - but it's flat. Most of his physical activity comes from being energetic and curious - he does a lot of hiking with Canada and Mexico, and he bikes everywhere because he secretly can't drive, so while he's physically fit, it doesn't translate to a superhero body, to his endless disappointment. Though he has incredibly strong legs on top of his insurmountable strength.

FASHION. America l o v e s colours. He's got pastel, he's got neon, he's got red, white and blue, and he loves anything cute. He's got a thousand hoodies in various colours with various quirky sayings or art on it, and he can easily coordinate his outfits into a burst of different colours that somehow matches.

Canada:

He and America don't actually look very alike, and Canada thinks its more proximity that has people mistaking him for his brother all the time. Canada doesn't have America's baby face, and stopped getting what he wanted through pouting long ago. He has a sharp jawline and can be described as strikingly handsome, when people bother to look. He has the same long lashes and big eyes as his brother and are physically the same age.

He's two inches taller than his brother (6'1), but he slouches so much that they look the same height. His government isn't as strict about his world meeting wardrobe as America's is, and he tends to go for untailored, drab gray or black suits, to France's dismay.

His hair and skin have a cooler undertone - his hair is lighter than America's and his skin is paler. His eyes most closely match A60, and looks purple in certain lights in the same way Elizabeth Taylor's did, but it is actually blue. He also doesn't actually need glasses, and wears them only because his brother had refused to wear his own unless he also had them, years and years ago. He's too used to it now, and it has sentimental value.

Canada is an avid hockey player, hiker and all around fitness buff, and his body secretly reflects that, underneath all the layers. He's broader in the shoulders and waist than America, and more muscular, to his brother's endless, ENDLESS bitterness. He's also very disciplined with his eating, and follows an athlete's diet. He REALLY cares about Hockey, guys.

FASHION: HOCKEY JERSEYS. LAYERS. LOUNGEWEAR. He has the wardrobe of a typical sportsmad lad. Waterproof steel-toed boots, something he and Australia both extol the virtues of. He likes whites, greys, browns and lights blues.

[unhetalia]

I KNOW I already did a Taylor Swift short haired era kinda gives Amelia vibes post but I was looking at photos of Sydney Sweeney because she's my nyo America body headcanon (Amelia absolutely has BOOBS ok) AND LOOK. LOOK AT THIS.

SCREAMING AND CRYING HER SHORT HAIR MAKES HER LOOK SO AMELIA-ESQUE

[unhetalia]

America headcanons (pt. 1):

America's super strength was a gift from his mother before she left. Her one last desperate attempt to protect her youngest child.

America needs to eat A LOT in order to maintain his strength. This wasn't the case when he was younger, but either the spell was only self sustaining until he reached adulthood or ... something else, America doesn't know. Doesn't really want to know. (When he doesn't eat enough, he gets incredibly hypoglycaemic.)

He had vegetarian phase after watching a documentary on the meat industry. Unfortunately, aforementioned strength and its dietary requirements meant he wasn't able to maintain it. Secretly, he was relieved he had a good reason to start eating meat again.

Has a genius IQ, and is endlessly curious. Sometimes he'll disappear for a while because he's getting a degree in whatever thing has interested him. If asked, he'll say his true loves are mechanical and aerospace engineering, as unlike some of the more theoretical sciences, he gets a tangible end result.

Currently works as a physicist at NASA.

Really out of touch with himself, especially in regards to his own sexuality. None of this is because of puritans, like most people would think - he has just run himself ragged so much since he gained independence that he's never once sat and thought about a lot things that isn't the next project or hanging out with his friends.

If he did ever think about it, Alfred would label himself as demisexual. Also, he would figure out he was gay as opposed to bi - something he currently believes because that tends to be the norm for their kind.

His circle of close friends include Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Philippines (female), and India (female). It's a friendship built from a mix of loving food, science, tech and buying knick knacks, and they love going to each others' countries and trying both fancy restaurants and cheap eats, or showing off ridiculous op shop purchases they've made or the latest games they've discovered/books they've read. It's genuinely a really wholesome group. (Note: I think I veered away from the canon of America not having any friends besides Mattie and England because I genuinely think America is fun? He has interests that are really solid bases for conversations and hang outs and while he's loud he also doesn't get mad or offended easily. He has a positive energy and is the right kind of weird to find other weird friends.)

America tends to be emotionally closed off even with his close friends, and only feels comfortable being vulnerable with Tony. He considers Tony his closest friend, and secretly fears Tony will one day leave Earth and go somewhere else.

Alfred can build a car, but can't drive one. He once tried to borrow Arthur's car to learn - it didn't work out, since Arthur was too furious with him for lugging it around to even hear him out.

Alfred is actually amazing at cooking, but barely any of the Europeans - or China - acknowledge it on the basis of him "butchering" their foods, aka changing even the most minor thing. Younger countries like Australia and New Zealand who aren't as ... strict about authenticity, tend to really enjoy his cooking. (And England, who falls a little bit more in love when America bakes him a steak pie.)

He has diagnosed seasonal affective disorder, which plays into him always gaining weight during winter. He has special blankets he only uses for when he's feeling sad, and his homes are filled with heat lamps.

[unhetalia]

YES I hate myself for making this post but... she's a little bit nyo America face claim coded...

[unhetalia]

More than 1 note on a post? I'm gonna take that as people being interested! The follow up of my first character headcanon post - this time for England and Russia aka my America love interests.

England:

Can be described as one word: sharp. Sharp jawline, sharp eyes, thin mouth. He has an eyebrow piercing - he rarely wears it nowadays, but he made the piercing with magic so it's always there. He has an eyebrow slit from a scar he got from the old days - from a battle with a magical creature that never healed. All the other nations are fascinated with it because scars are so rare among their kind (and also because with how England's eyebrows are, it's very eyecatching). Attractive in a rough and tumble way - he's very popular with a subset of the female population who somehow initially peg him for a bad boy no matter how far behind him those days are. (France always jokes he's got the face of a delinquent). Physically 30s, ID says 33.

Tailored three piece suits and oxfords are his regular wardrobe for work, like a proper gentleman.

Dirty, light blonde hair (a bit like this), and D37 green-coloured eyes. While he's very hygienic, he doesn't take care of himself beyond doing things for hygiene, so he tends to have rough, calloused hands and his skin isn't particularly soft, though he has the Nation-blessed clear skin.

Very little body fat, lean muscle. He's 175cm (0r 5'9) 180cm (or 5'10), and is therefore 2cm shorter than America. which infuriates Arthur. A lot of scars from magical battles - he has more scars than any other Nation. Has kept up sword fighting and martial arts, and unfortunately has a temper that means he gets into a lot of brawls. Physicality is very important to him, which comes from some more old-fashioned Nation values that younger Nations don't tend to have (more on this later).

FASHION: Arthur dressed down = replacing the three piece suit with a dress shirt paired with a sweater vest. Or a long, dark coat. He generally tends to prefer blacks, greys, browns. It's rumoured (according to France) that his fashion sense is to stop young women from hitting on him, thinking he's some kind of bad boy. Also why he's cut down on smoking in public. Poor guy.

Russia:

If England is rough and tumble handsome, Russia is prince handsome - really on as opposite ends of a person's 'type scale' as you can possibly get. He's got a strong jaw and fuller lips, soft eyes. Many a six yer old have tugged on their mother's clothes, pointed at him and told their mum there's a prince, and many a mum have rewarded their six year old for pointing him out. Physically 30s, ID says 31.

Whatever he wears always tends to be hidden by a coat and his scarf.

White blonde hair (close to... this colour). His eyes are undeniably violet. Once again the polar opposite of Arthur, his skin is soft and smooth, looking very much like he's never worked a day in his life - but if the metaphor that I was going for is that England's power is in the way he's hardened from work and hardship, and maintains strength and power through sheer will, Russia's strength is in his impenetrability, in the way even years of holding swords or guns never shows in his body.

I've run out of words, so Russia's body type is the second or last one in this image, depending on if he's at war or in peace times. Minor differences between them, generally. Broad shoulders, thick waist, thick everything. No abs, just. Solidly built. Also, he's 6'4 6'7, and wears the kind of boots that make him taller (not on purpose - he just needs sturdy, waterproof boots, and those tend to add height.

[unhetalia]

The way I imagine England is super informed by Hashigo's art while my America tends to be slightly informed by Hobby Hobby (these links lead to a not for kids doujin by those artists in a shady website with terrifying ads, early 2000s style, fair warning). That is to say, my bulletproof headcanon is when they go out on dates EVERYONE around them firmly believes England is America's sugardaddy - especially since England always pays, always drives, gives gifts as form of affection, and has a habit of ordering for America in restaurants, which all tend to read as sugardaddy behaviour to an outsider.

[unhetalia]

Super picky about nyos I like so I wanted to write a list of the ones I do like just for me.

America: I love the concept of female America because it was how I thought of America pre-Hetalia, though I don't love Himaruya's design - especially her outfit. I also think that due to my love of Alfred, I don't always love the way that Amelia is portrayed as completely different from Alfred in every way. I feel like my love for female America is tempered by how much I miss Alfred whenever she's there (due to their lack of resemblance to each other). When I do think about Amelia, she tends to dress in hoodies and pants unless in formal settings, largely due to her own insecurities - though, like Alfred, she hides/makes up for it by having a lot of hoodies in cute colours and eye-catching designs. Her body is very Sydney Sweeney-esque. She keeps her hair short but just long enough that she can tie it up. STILL WEARS GLASSES.

Austria: I love her as much as I love Roderich because unlike with America, wherein I do feel like going from Alfred to Amelia leads to personality changes, it doesn't happen with Roderich at ALL. So it's just the character I love with boobs. I also love her canon design - no notes.

Philippines: I don't even see this as nyo - to me Philippines is a woman and I ignore canon. She's super short, with a large personality. Long, straight black hair down to her butt, dark brown eyes and tanned skin. She's actually pretty unfeminine, but people always assume different because she always wears dresses. The real reason why is because she loves how easy it is to put on and how it doesnt press on her tummy when she's feeling bloated after eating too much. She loves eating, watching dramas and anime, reading, and science - which is why she gets along super well with Alfred. Lactose intolerant but ignoring it.

Mexico: Also a woman to me, as opposed to being a nyo counterpart; Alfred and Matthew's older sister. Brown eyes and wavy brown hair down to her back, tanned skinned. Pretty tall at 5'9, her nails are long and always painted a gorgeous, deep colour that matches her lipstick; she prefers long, swishy skirts and wears an old bracelet Alfred made for her hundreds of years ago. She loves both her brothers but has a very obvious preference for Alfred - but then again, so does Matthew. She's a hacker and pretty great at martial arts, fencing, and shooting. She loathes England because she thinks he took her brother away from her.

France: I just love the concept of a female France who is nearly exactly the same. Also, her design is gorgeous - and in a universe where both France and America are women, France absolutely claims that it's her "genes" that contributed to America's beauty. She's not actually very voluptuous - she is very delicate looking, she's also only 5'4, but wears heels that give her at least 3 inches. Always wears very sophisticated, branded clothing. That she is prone to taking off at random times. She would still be England's best friend, though England would have been less rough in their history because [gags] he's just too uncomfortable treating a woman like how he'd treat a man. He absolutely still thrashes her though. Just. Differently.

New Zealand: Looks pretty similar to the androgynous design of actual New Zealand, except she's a woman. Small, dainty looking and just as unassuming when you talk to her, but has strong convictions - she'll listen to what you say but you won't actually change her mind. Australia has been trying to marry her for a while and she keeps breaking his heart by telling him she sees him as a brother. She might actually feel something for him, but she also feels like they're incompatible and shes too practical to go for something based on feelings alone. She loves a mince and cheese pie and has a dry sense of humour. She gets along with pretty much every country.

India: Also a woman to me, despite Himaruya. She's a biochemical engineer and is incredibly clever. She's very outspoken about women in STEM and is a proud feminist. Has a soft spot for children and animals. Short hair, just up to her chin. Is England's ex; sometimes still has feelings for him, but mostly it's complicated because their relationship took place when he was at his worst. Feels a kinship for Alfred over Arthur, not that Alfred has noticed his feelings.

On the flipside, I am not a fan of nyo England at all and if I ever reblog it it probably means I've been replaced by a pod person. Like... pigtails... why does she randomly have glasses... why are her eyebrows thin... who even is she.

Beyond my absolutely seething hatred for the design, I have also thought about Arthur so much as a character that it's an even more severe version of how I sometimes feel about Alfred - I don't want any other version except the Arthur I've spent so long thinking about, and unfortunately because of how the fandom sometimes is about Arthur I ended up having a lot of headcanons about his physical form and it's all super linked to him being a man in a way my Alfed headcanons aren't. It doesn't make sense unless I delve pettiness I dont like to dwell on that despite that absolutely does exist and informs how I view the characters. (I also feel the same way about Canada.)
