rai relearns how to draw pt. 3 (the finale)

full pic under the cut

[atlcscp]

I'm reading a superhero webnovel titled worm, and I'm in a part that's pretty sinophobic, and there's mention of characters with mandarin names:

Tōng Líng Tǎ; Shén yù

I looked it up and didn't find anything, and then I remembered that you speak mandarin. Any idea what they say in English?

OOOO I could be missing something but from what I can tell Shén yù is supposed to be like 神谕 ? Which is like an oracle, and Líng tǎ could be 灵塔 like those buddhist pagodas maybe :0 and Tōng just sounds like a regular surname :3 definitely there's a like divine, spiritual or religious theme which is common enough in chinese stuff, so I guess that's fair. I'm not sure if it would be considered problematic since I'm quite blur about this stuff but I will say it's pretty on the nose if I'm guessing the words right, like they're just nouns 😭 ANYWAYY I don't know much about names so </3

[coollyinterferes]

//so...i'm just learning about some BL comic where one of the characters looks like this

and turns out that he's also apparently some gang boss (he's in his mid-30s, so like.. 10-ish years older than PB!Speebs), and he's also tall and buff too?????????? The lighting here doesn't really show it, but he appears to be blond in almost every other colored pic I've seen (his hair curly/wavy)

[astrxealis]

actually i'll change them to look like this

"playing wow without an ssd in 2022 is just trolling"

okay but consider this: not everyone has a gaming computer, or a desktop computer, and not everyone can afford good specs. some people are like "if it's working then im okay with it" even if the graphics are "bad" or it "loads slowly" like who cares

[idyllic-affections]

HIII so this might be an odd request,,, mayhaps i ask for kaveh with an older step sibling (since his mom remarried i think).,, i think kaveh would be a little awkward interacting with them at first but they got along in the long run!! esp when they update him about his mom and never really makes him uncomfortable, or always doesn't force a conversation!! he respects his ideals and supports his passion!!

but the main idea was they go to sumeru one day to visit kaveh (they've been informing him thru letters) and accidentally finds out that he's buried under crippling debt and flat out broke!! i think kaveh would feel so ahasmed of himself but!! his older sibling doesn't judge n is very understanding!! helps him with his burdens (if kaveh allows them), maybe recommend his architectural skills to their friends in fontaine!!

idk i just really like the idea of kaveh having an older family member that he could rely on because he really just deserves nice things yk 🥺🥺 even tho they're just step siblings, they feel like true family!!

anyways feel free to ignore this!! have a nice day/night and take ur time!! 💖💖

the blending of two families.

summary. not all step-siblings are like the cruel ones in the fairytales.

trigger & content warnings. references to death and grief. spoilers for kaveh's backstory.

tropes, pairings, fic length, & other notes. fluff, comfort, slight angst. kaveh & older step-sibling!reader. 1k words. they/them pronouns for reader.

author's thoughts. THIS REQ IS LITERALLY SO CUTE WHATSJSGJF??????? i have Feelings about kaveh's mom and they are NOT good ones but i'll be nice to her for the sake of this piece........ /lh i did this in brainrot format because i wanted SOO badly to get this one done relatively quickly this req invaded my brain like a song that gets stuck in your head

kaveh first meets his older step-sibling at his mother's wedding.

he's... happy for her, he really is. or he's trying to be, at least. she deserves nothing but the best. what kind of son would he be if he wanted her to live her life wallowing in grief and sorrow? she's hardly ever done anything to hurt him, and if she ever did, it was unknowingly. he could neved wish anything bad upon her. she simply does not deserve those things. therefore, he's doing his best to be happy for her.

a part of him, however, still misses his father.

a part of him— well, who is he kidding? the entirety of his being still suffers under the weight of grief and guilt caused by the circumstances surrounding his father's death.

he doesn't even know the man his mother has chosen to marry, really. kaveh absolutely does not feel like she is betraying him or his father whatsoever, but... he does wish that he had gotten to know this man a little bit better before having to trust that he would not wound his mother's scarred heart.

the architect doesn't engage with the other guests much. it's unlike him, really, but he finds that he can't muster up the strength and charisma to talk with people beyond simple pleasantries. he keeps to himself for the most part.

still, he doesn't dare dampen the atmosphere with his woes, so when another person approaches him, he offers his warmest smile.

"sorry, i hope you don't mind me asking..." this stranger smiles politely at him. it puts his mind at ease a little. "is the bride your mother? you look an awful lot like her."

"oh, i—" he stammeers inelegantly, then clears his throat. "yes. i am her son, kaveh."

they smile again.

"hello kaveh. i'm [name], the groom's child."

"oh. oh! i am so sorry, i had no idea!"

"it's alright, really. you mind if i stick around for a while?"

and kaveh finds that he doesn't. he doesn't mind at all.

the architect has been known to be loose-lipped about his troubles; that in and of itself is part of the reason why he spent the night withdrawn from the celebration. he had no intention of being open about his troubles, and yet...

his step-sibling had the sort of face that made him want to rant, and rant he did.

"i can understand that," they mused thoughtfully, kind eyes observing his expression closely. "it's complicated. grief is never easy. i get it."

initially, they were the one lingering around kaveh, but by the end of the night, the tables have certainly turned. he is practically attached at their hip.

he finds that their understanding presence ended up raising his low spirits.

a few days later, kaveh has to return to sumeru—he does have responsibilities, after all—but he's a bit sad about it! they're, of course, there to reassure him that they plan on visiting someday soon. maybe he can show them around? the prospect alone is very thrilling to him, and what's better is that he'll get to show off his magnum opus like an excited toddler showing off a drawing they made! he does warn them that it is very humid and they need to be prepared, though.

until they can visit, kaveh regularly exchanges letters with them. he complains about his terribly annoying roommate and how awful his taste in interior design is. he tells them about random gossip he heard at the tavern. honestly, he just rambles. it's endearing, really, and in return, they tell him about fontaine and maybe sneak in just the smallest bit of gossip about a certain chief justice or even about the hydro archon herself.

(in the future, closer to when the traveler arrives in fontaine, they do not dare tell kaveh about the heightened fatui activity. goodness, the poor thing would worry to death for theirs and his mother's safety.)

when they do finally have the time to come visit...

they arrive by boat in port ormos, and kaveh is there to pick them up!

he's got a lot of things he intends to show them and a lot of people he intends on introducing them to. on the way back to sumeru city, he stops a few times, pointing out some particularly beautiful locations or animals, all of which would have his siblimg absolutely over the moon. sumeru in general would have them enamored.

the air in sumeru is so... clean compared to fontaine, and the fauna and flora—it's completely different than what they've seen.

now, as for [name] finding out about kaveh's crippling debt... i think they would suspect something was off financially for him, simply because of certain mannerisms of his. he's careful with what he spends his mora on. he tries to be, at the very least, and his caution is very evident. or maybe they're just observant? either way, they know something is a bit off.

kaveh leaves them at alhaitham's home for a while.

it's not that they're one to snoop—it's disrespectful and rude to do so, they are very much aware of this—but a letter would catch their eye.

a letter detailing what he still owes to dori.

suddenly, things make sense in their mind.

they don't try to ask his roommate about it. instead, they wait until he's home and alone with them.

"kaveh," they call. "are you in debt?"

his heart sinks a little. so much for hiding it...

"i..." he hesitates, obviously embarrassed, but he does come clean. in their eyes, he looks like a kicked, pouty puppy. "it's... complicated. i mean, you're not wrong..."

"aw, kaveh, don't look like that," they coo, reaching out to gingerly squeeze his shoulder in a gesture of gentle reassurance. "it's nothing to be ashamed about. things happen, kaveh. life happens. i understand if not, but... will you let me help you out? at least a little bit?"

regardless of what he says, whether he admits that he could use the help or insists that they shouldn't have to do that, they do still go around and tell people about their super awesome and talented step-brother! and when kaveh asks in a letter about the suspicious amount of commissions he's getting from fontaine...

nope! they have no idea how those people found out about him. <3

please consider reblogging, it helps me out quite a lot!

[viperwhispered]

hi hi ner!

for the character opinion bingo, i’d like to throw in jamil (just for fun hdjdj) and/or kalim :0

Ty for the ask Ian! (and for enabling me for some more Jamil thoughts because they do be coming)

Uhh let's start with Kalim tho before I get rambly.

Honestly for how entwined Kalim is with Jamil, I don't really think about him that much. Like I definitely don't feel like I have a firm grip of Kalim's character below the surface. He is a total sweetheart, though, despite his cluelessness, and being one of the faves of one of my friends definitely always earns extra points.

A precious boy, basically, who I feel like yes is in a very complex entanglement with Jamil, but does not deserve too much blame for the situation being what it is.

Now, for Jamil. Unsurprisingly he got a few more matches on the bingo sheet.

I wish I could circle that beast unleashed for an actual (almost) bingo but idk, sure you could make an argument for it for book 4 and stuff but it just doesn't seem like the right vibe (or perhaps I just don't know what vibe that square is going for to begin with).

Partial circle on the headcanon square because yes I think about him a lot but I don't feel like I go for headcanons that much? Like it's more about canon things, extrapolating from there, or just "wouldn't it be neat" kinda stuff, if that makes sense.

(Or maybe I just think my opinions are so obvious I don't even recognize the headcanony nature of them, y'all can be the judge of that).

I feel like there are folks in the fandom who do have some curious opinions about him but I've done a pretty good job of surrounding myself with like-minded folks so I'm good.

My canon denial mostly goes for the tragedy of it all, like yes Jamil's situation sucks but how about I just focus on happier things instead (yeah good luck to me with that).

Partial silly for the good old passion for dancing overtaking him and stuff like that. And when he's just ribbing his schoolmates. Because then there's also those parts of him that are anything but.

I don't think anyone would disagree that he's a bastard. I mean, book 4, masquerade, we know how much (that is, little) he cares by default.

Kiss and bite are mayhaps kinda related and do not even begin to cover the range of desirable actions but I'm just gonna leave that at that.

Also like sure red and black are also the dorm's colors, not just Jamil's, but come on, those are definitely my colors, too.

Tho I do tend to prefer silver over gold, but anyway.

And as much as I have my problems with snakes, the way the hood suggests a snake and all the other little details are just so cool.

And don't even get me started on his hair and the hoodie under the school uniform and all those little things he does with his looks to push the envelope (oop is this actually a headcanon?) and to have a more personalized look while staying within what's required/expected of him.

(if anyone else wants to grab the plain bingo card, you can find it here)

[leonenjoyer69]

Okay so– In an au where both Elias and Whole Jekyll exist, what would Elias think of Whole Jekyll and vice-versa?

Also, would a Mind Elias exist at one point :0???

GREAT QUESTIONS MINT, HEHE >:3

First of all, theoretically, this could totally happen in the same universe, since it was decided that using the wrong salts allows Harry to take control... as a plus, Jekylls Mindscape would even be in better shape, since Hyde wouldn't have his temper tantrums! Maybe Mind Lanyon wouldn't lowkey fade away/die, too 💀💀 But, anyways--

(Forgot to add a cut before, so here's one now since this is long lmao)

Honestly, Elias would probably pity tf out of Whole Jekyll, while also kinda fearing him. Like, Jekyll or Hyde go to switch back but use the wrong salts and suddenly there's this weird combination of the two hunched over in pain instead. He explains that he's basically the original Jekyll and stuff from before the potion and immediately talks about how he intends to reverse the potion and become whole again, bc Jekyll and Hyde are both still hanging around in the mirror/Mindscape. Of course Elias doesn't really want him to reverse the potion at all, because that means he'd reverse Lanyons too, and he doesn't wanna die. He also likes hanging out with Jekyll and Hyde and seeing their differences and such. But, on the other hand, a small part of him does kinda want Jekyll to be happy and whole again, and this Harry guy seems to have gone through a decent bit. Plus, now Jekyll and Hyde are trapped away and Harry won't let them have control (tho in a combined au maybe he would, since Jekyll and Hyde get along better once Lanyon splits and knows about them? Idk, probably not without some serious convincing)

Elias still tries to spend as much time with Harry as possible, somewhat happy to see Harry actually kinda take care of himself, but also there's the not great occasions where Harry is fighting with his other halves (who he lowkey kinda hates. I don't think I've talked about it much, but I have/still do pull some things from Chonny Jash's Soul, since he was basically the whole inspiration for Harry in the first place lmao). He feels really bad for the 3 of them and kinda just wants to be there to provide any sort of comfort.

Harry would probably feel immensely guilty that Lanyon had to get split to, avoiding Elias as much as he can (which isn't really a whole hell of a lot, Elias is very persistent, and Harry can only take so much of his sad face). Like, he certainly wouldn't hate Elias, that's still a part of Lanyon after all, but he just feels so bad about it half the time. He certainly prefers Lanyons company, especially because of the comfort his presence provides him (and bc they probably at least mostly reconciled and are mayhaps dating again). Otherwise Harry spends a decent bit of his time researching how to undo the potion and such (which Elias will lowkey try to lightly sabotage sometimes, yk, so he doesn't have to remerge, or it at least takes longer.) And trying to keep his two halves in check.

Otherwise!!! When you ask about a mind Elias, 3 things come to mind, so:

A mind version of Elias in Jekylls Mindscape: honestly, I think the closest to a mind Elias Jekyll would get is just Mind Lanyon gaining more of Elias's features, I don't feel like there'd be a whole entity for him, but yeah. You know how mind Lanyon loses his face and such when Jekylls perception of him gets messed up? Yeah, I kinda just imagine that except instead of looking his face he just adopts some of elias's features (which mind Lanyon does NOT like, and it also really throws Harry off while he's still in the Mindscape)

Mind clothes and such for Elias in Lanyons Mindscape: yes, he absolutely has a silly little set of clothes for the mind scape (which I really need to come up with and draw frfr). Idk why, but my first thought is that he has a cloak in the Mindscape, for some reason. Also really wanna put him in one of those newsboy hats..

A "whole" version of Lanyon- theoretically, probably yes, but since he's so fresh and Lanyon doesn't have the multitude of issues Jekyll has, it's really Just Lanyon chilling in his fancy little Mindscape probably. But, also, my brain is kinda wanting to say that there's not a whole Lanyon, and that the potion Lanyon took actually worked a bitttt closer to the way Jekyll intended it, gathering all the things one hates about them self and giving it it's own identity, while leaving the original person practically unchanged. Like, with Jekyll and Hyde I feel like it did literally split Jekyll, leaving Jekyll himself changed in ways while also giving Hyde everything that was at least partially changed, but amped up by tenfold.

ANYWAYS, THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR THIS RN >:3 I have a bajillion OTHER things on Harry at the ready tho, (thank you Mint for asking things about him and letting me ramble on discord, hehe >:3) so like, say the magic word and I've got a dozen little things to dump about him, from straight lore to little quirks to other character's reactions to him while he's in control :33 Also thank you for the ask Mint! I would never have thought of this without being prompted tbh (sorry if some parts of this post may be a bit nonsensical tho, my brain go brrrr and sometimes I apparently completely forget how the characters I made act 💀) but yeah!!!! Thank you, I'm loving all the OC asks >:3

[rayofmisfortune]

IIIIIIII have a lil question for you, or rather two (and you can answer these whenever!)

First up! If you were to...mayhaps have a comic done of your lil fireboy and watergirl au beans (like just a silly lil one nothing major >_<) Would you be ok with it being posted and you being tagged and credited or would you rather it send through inbox (I...do not know the limitations of the Inbox tho so idk for sure if it'd work...? But thought I'd ask)

And second thing! Swearing. Like...full censor like a bleep or symbols to block out the word, or would a cut off word be fine? >_< (like sho- (this is shoot) kinda thing but with an actual swear) Have something in mind and while i'm not a big fan of swearing myself i sometimes have a character swear (usually some form of censored for anything drawn) and just wanna make sure I don't make you uncomfy >_<

Andddd for reading thro my rambling questions have a dood of your beans! (don't mind the terrible camera quality....)

They are both in basic my dood pose cause i was just trying to get a feel for how to draw them >_<

ik I say this a lot but- *shakes* A COMIC???? JESTER I WILL STRANGLE YOU- /aff /lh Someone transfer discord nitro on here so I can properly translate my excitement via emotes jfjfjfj

Uuuuuh to ANSWER!

I would be fine with it being posted and I tagged in it! Only if that's what you wanna do of course! Don't wanna force anyone into anything hehe

I'm fine with swearing! I myself have a veeery potty mouth so I really wouldn't have a problem with you doing either! (I do tend to avoid swearing when I write if that's any worth jfjfb) Though- thinking about it a little more... I'm just imagining a scene where one of them slipped and fell off a platform (not towards any body of liquid) and they'd scream their voiceboxes all the way to the heavens. Manage to say a curse, completely ignore the fact that if they were human they'd have a concussion- and focus on the fact that WOOO I JUST SWORE WITHOUT GETTING CENSORED YAHOOO JDJDJ ah- but to properly answer, yes I'd say they'd be able to curse. One earlier than the other. Probably Wamoon ending up annoying Solare with pulling up a personal playlist filled with curse words and singing along to them while Solare gets the guns (read fire) ready jrjrrj

*SHAKES YOU SHAKES YOU SHAKES YOU* ooooh I love that you noticed Solare's designs (forgot word oof) on his casing are sharper than Wamoon's! Didn't know if people would pick up on that but YUSSSSS I also love how you drew the fire and water in their hands! Very flowy and shapy!

[neverchecking]

hi hi I've been sitting here thinking about this for like hours I just NEED someone else to brain rot with me,,,

ok so I was replaying botw a bit ago and idk if anyone else has written about this before, but you know wild's barbarian armor – the one that has the paint?

now... hear me out... perhaps that body paint doesn't spawn when he puts on the armor... and it has to be painted on...

and imagine that perhaps the chain is planning on taking on some monster camps and wild wants to wear that armor set so he pulls the reader aside and asks them to help him

cause idk about you,, but that mark on his stomach – the one right in between his hips and partially hidden by the waistband of his pants – looks a little like a hand print... don't you think??

the reader and wild emerge from the forest behind the chain and wild has the BIGGEST grin on his lips and the reader looks a little frazzled if you will xD the paint on his chest and sides is a little wobbly and uneven and the chain notice,,, but it's that handprint that really gets their attention (and perhaps the scratches on wild's back but does anyone mention them xD )

goes a lil like:

legend: "hey wild... what you got there?"

wild proceeds to turn with a shit-eating grin on his lips and faint marks on his hipbones partially concealed by his pants: "some armor, why what's up?"

legend rolls his eyes even tho he knows DAMN well he wishes those bruises were on his own hips xD

OR ALSO CONSIDER

the armor can also be found in TOTK,,, so mayhaps,,, switch wild with sage...

anyway... I hope you have fun thinking about this HAHAHA

ANON WHAT HAVE YOU DONE-

bc now this is ALL I'm thinking about. Bc remember when I drew Sage? And I drew him in the barbarian armor? It's bc its one of my favorite pieces. Like its so slutty I love it.

And I LOVE This idea-

Like imagine Wild/Sage easily convincing Reader that it would be so much easier to just fingerpaint it. And that he obviously needs the paint. Its what completes the look.

Imagine Wild/Sage taking the opportunity given to him, with Reader's hands all over him and just trapping their paint covered fingers. Trailing them up and down his own skin for them in the markings he needs. And when it comes to the one on his stomach. He's pulling his pants down just enough to showcase his divine V-line and dragging Reader's hand down. Watching their every reaction before pouncing. If they're a little late to meet back up with the chain, well, who's counting anyway?

And when the others are doing nothing but glaring at him, he's smirking even more. He knows they're bitter and jealous and he can't help but relish in it just a little.

Especially when they realize the paint trails far beneath his belt line. Especially when thin white scratch lines decorate his back, stark against his otherwise pale skin. Especially when Reader comes back, stumbling and hair a mess, cheeks redder than anything.

I just JNFOFNF I LOVE ALL OF THIS ANON I NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS MORE.

[roszabell]

[boopshoops]

Hello user boopshoops!!!! I saw the emoji OC thing and I am here to send one!!!

I browsed ur OC masterlist and kinda got curious about Viddian Monroe, since she seems to be one of ur oldest OCs?? Her design reminded me of Catherine of Aragon from Six the musical, idk why, probs her spiky headband thing lol??

I do also want to ask about Yuu Shi and Jocia tho!! But pick and choose as you wish! 💭, 🎮, 🎻!

SKRIBLEE!!! HELLO!!!! sending you love for sticking around to support me for so long >:0

AAA VIDDIAN!!! She is- extremely ancient. I made her right around starting middle school! Her OG design was VERY different to how she looks now, but I picked her back up a few years later to rework her as an antagonist of mine!! She's just a teensy bit unhinged. Or mayhaps a lot. <3 ALSO WAIT SHE KIND OF DOES LOOK LIKE CATHERINE- damn i really need to fully watch that musical, i've only seen clips/animations of songs womp womp

💭what is your oc's MBTI, enneagram, and/or other personality aspects (if known/interested in)?

Viddian: ESFJ (Extrovert, sensing, feeling, judging) Viddian just LOVES people. To an unhealthy degree. She loves analyzing details about them, particularly regarding psychiatry, psychology, and morality. However, she only loves people in a purely entertaining sense. They're like toys she wants to play with, put in new scenarios to dance around in and see how they'll react. Once she learns enough, maybe they'll be thrown away. It's almost like she views herself as separate from them, though not necessarily above. Simply something different. To put it simply, she isn't as much 'gaslight gatekeep girlboss' as she is 'barratry, bludgeoning, babygirl'

Yuu: ESTP (Extrovert, sensing, thinking, perceiving) Ahh, now here's the gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss- constantly teetering on the edge of girlfailure-hood <3

Jocia: ESFP (Extrovert, sensing, feeling, perceiving) Live laugh love but like... combat, clinch, chokehold. (I'm keeping the twin's shorter since i already have their personalities summed up on their profiles :D)

🎮what are three of your oc's favorite hobbies?

Viddian: Astronomy study, hunting, sparring

Yuu: Singing, playing guitar, dancing

Jocia: figure skating, working out, skateboarding!

🎻does your oc play any instruments? what is their skill level (beginner/intermediate/advanced/virtuoso/etc)?

Viddian: Nope! Nada! She isn't very interested in music, but she is partial to ambient sound.

Yuu: YES! She plays guitar, violin, and piano! She is a virtuoso at guitar, as she has played it most of her life as well as MADE it her entire life. She is intermediate at violin given it is something she practices on and off mostly just to maintain her skills, and she is a beginner at piano!

Jocia: Ahhh Jocia... Lets just say there has been an attempt at guitar as a way to bond with her sister, but she is a beginner.

[astrxealis]

btw since ill get getting into editing more (...again? >.>) ive only once b4 actually made a self ship moodboard (w a gif i made myself too hehe <3) but !! for any of my mutuals/friends ... if y'all wld mayhaps like, i can make self ship moodboards for y'all too !

Markiplier Egos with an Aromantic DA / Viewer

a/n: I randomly decided I really wanna get something out for aro week, so I've got a oneshot mayhaps involving a certain adventurer in the works, but knowing me that might take a while (if I even finish it all) and these tend to be easier for me. So, that's why this exists...not that you asked.

(edit: made one for Ace hcs.)

WILFORD WARFSTACHE

He wouldn't really care, but in like a supportive way.

He may not look like it, but the guy's got some common sense.

I can't see him as the type to ask a lot of questions especially if you're visibly uncomfortable around the topic. (tho ig he might if it's for an interview, not sure)

A big part of Wil's character is just accepting shit as it is and not questioning what you can't understand because falling down that spiral is ultimately unhealthy; so if you were to come out to him as any sexuality/gender identity, he'd most likely just accept you immediately and move one.

Expect to receive a lot of aro themed stickers on pride month though.

DARKIPLIER

Also doesn't care, but it's less him being supportive (tho he is) and more: it doesn't affect him, so why should he care?

Like you do you. Your love life is none of his business.

Quite frankly, he couldn't give a shit.

Though, he might find some relatability with you.

Despite how one might interpret ADWM, I cannot see Dark as an entity with the capability to feel much of anything. (other than rage, vengefulness, etc.)

There are some vague memories of past feelings from both Celine and Damien (and possibly the house entity, idk) mostly shown through his clear favoritism for Wil.

However, I don't think he really can feel romantic feelings, nor does he want to.

Being loved sounds nice, but ultimately it would just get in the way.

So having someone around that's kind of like him in that regard is almost nice...cathartic even.

You both like to watch 'marriage gameshows' (the bachelor, love is blind, etc.) over wine and laugh about how you'll never have to deal with relationship problems. (idc if that one's ooc)

GOOGLEPLIER

He can't really feel romantic attraction himself, yk being a robot and all.

If you tried explaining aromanticism to him he'd probably just be like: "Yeah, and??".

He's supportive in a sense, that sense being: you not having a partner would mean one less meat sack he has to deal with once he manages to get admin privileges.

BINGIPLIER

Kinda stumped on this one ngl.

I just can't find a reason why he'd care whatsoever.

He'd just be like: "Oh...siiiick, brah." with total Bill and Ted energy.

ACTOR

(edit: this is pre-wkm btw. idk why I did that, it doesn't really fit with the others that way. so I probably won't do it again in future hcs. sorry ig.)

I imagine it comes up at a party.

He starts asking you about your love life.

You tell him that you've never really been interested in that kind of stuff, and you probably never will.

What does he do?

...

He calls you boring.

...

AND THEN JUST FUCKIN' WALKS AWAY- like- ????

In all seriousness, he's mostly chill about it throughout your friendship, but it's hard for me not to picture him as the type to think you're just being naive and that 'everyone has to find someone someday'. (I believe WKM takes place in the 1920s, so like, what were you expecting?)

That is until Celine cheats on him.

It was just such a world shattering thing for him, he genuinely loved her more than anything.

It's not a complete 180°, he doesn't suddenly understand your lack of attraction from this, but one night you check in with him to find him wasted in his wine cellar and he's basically like: "You had it right all along, my friend. Love...Love is not for everyone. ...Certainly not the faint of heart."

Which like, you didn't choose this, but you were more focused on making sure he was okay at the time to care.

YANCY

A part of me wants to think he'd be a little confused at first just cause the idea of having to explain aromanticism and/or asexuality to him because he's just genuinely curious is really adorable to me.

However, the rest of me refuses to believe his friend group isn't entirely comprised of both people in the lgbtq+ community and hardcore allies who would happily beat the shit out of aphobes on a daily basis.

Not to say that they think of you as child-like because of your sexuality, but it's a prison family and you're 'fresh meat' so you're their little aro-bean now whether you like it or not.

Yancy especially is protective of you in an almost older brother type way.

So if after/during coming out to them (or just him) you mention how scared you were/are because you've had a lot of bad experiences or something, he's like constantly ready to sucker punch and/or ballerina kick anyone giving you flack over just being who you are.

He's always willing to tell you how valid you are when you need to hear it, and overall is just a really great friend.

...Even with the stabbing.

ILLINOIS

In an odd way, he almost feels...relieved?

Call it a humble brag, but literally all of his past work partners had fallen in love with him at some point, and while the attention certainly feeds his ego, that kinda thing just gets tired and even annoying after a while.

So knowing that'll never happen with you is actually a nice break from what he's grown so used to.

He's never had someone around who genuinely enjoys adventuring as much as he does.

And who isn't like constantly ogling him. (I mean probably anyway, idk what it's like to be aroallo)

Having you around may also cause him to start questioning some things about himself, particularly when you're explaining your orientation.

But that's a topic we'll be getting into at another time! (*wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge* *stares at empty draft*)

He's still used to trying to fluster people cause he finds it funny and in general is just the kind of person to be a bit touchy with his friends (meaning: platonic hand holding, hugs, head/back pats, standing weirdly close a lot of the time just naturally, etc.), so if you're ever uncomfortable just tell him and he'll cut it out straight away.

You're both just kinda really good friends, and he's not at all weird about it like you thought he might be.

CAPTAIN MAGNUM

Supportive Pirate Dad! 10/10!

You definitely have to explain what it means to him, but he verbally accepted you before he even asked.

Kinda like: "That's great!...What is it?-"

Would have the crew sew you a flag if it would make you happy.

They are still pirates who have been sailing across the deep blue their whole lives with presumably no contact with the mainland however.

So unless you for some fuckin reason told them what it looks like, you can expect to receive a relatively small, plain black flag with the word 'Arrowmantik.' spelled incorrectly and somehow sewn on in perfect white Helvetica.

...

You hung the flag right above your hammock.

It is your most prized possession.

HEAD ENGINEER

Might be a little discouraged at first. His crush on you was a tad obvious.

But he figures it's for the best. You are the captain after all. Pursuing that relationship wouldn't have been professional in the slightest.

It does take a bit but he gets over it eventually.

He still genuinely loves you platonically/as a person, so things don't really change all that much.

You still have a strong friendship and work really well together.

He tends to go a bit overboard now about giving you personal space cause he doesn't want to make you uncomfortable. So you may have to reassure him multiple times if it wasn't an issue.

During when pride month would be on earth he might gift you little aro themed stuff, like a patch you can't actually add to your uniform for work reasons but love and appreciate anyway.

He may not fully understand how you feel, but he never stops trying to, and either way he's always gonna support you no matter what.

Your orientation could never change how much he loves and trusts you both as a captain and as his friend.

MURDOCK

He doesn't really care since it doesn't affect what you guys do, though he is openly accepting, especially if it seemed like you needed to hear that it wasn't something that bothered him.

In a similar vein to Illinois, he's strangely grateful.

He's not sure how he would've dealt with the situation had you developed a crush on him. Such emotions tend to get in the way more often than not in his line of work.

He didn't wanna have to kill you just to make his life easier. Taking a life out of necessity isn't as much fun, plus he'd grown a tad fond of you.

I like to think he cares quite a bit about your mental health, it would make sense given the whole murder thing.

So if you often go through periods of doubt or even internalized self hatred regarding being aromantic, he's gonna be there to help you through it.

He goes with you to pride parades and if anyone tries to tell you that you don't belong there, they're immediately getting put on a black list.

He got you a nifty little keychain once while you were there.

Overall, surprisingly wholesome.

a/n: I went back and forth on whether or not I was gonna use the pronouns I hc them all as using, but in the end I just said 'fuck it, appeal to general audiences, why not at this point'. I'm really fuckin' tired, dude. Just- HAPPY ARO WEEK! ig.

Okay despite me thinking of her daily, I have become stumped about what to say about frye to send you an ask XD

So I'll do an actual ask instead

What are your headcanons for frye? I noticed you used different Pronouns than me so I was curious!

Design wise as well if you'd like

My headcanona for her is that she's a lesbian and that she has tusks with a ring on it, as you may have noticed in my recent drawings of her XD

i dont know how 2 properly explain BUT i kinda kin/absorb characters as a tiny part of my identity/personality/self so like. frye is he/him because frye is a tiny part of me and IM he/him (i forgot the explanation but yah)

it usually ends up with some really weird headcanons cus its mostly just a mix of me and that character (if i ever do detach from that character remnants of the hcs will stay but i usually will call them by their original pronouns or a mix) which can be neat or really strange but either way

i think its mostly so i can be as similar to them as possible bc it brings me comfort to be similar to them (like me hcing hop from pokemon to be transmasc)? maybe a mirroring thing? i forgot but if anyone knows why feel free 2 explain

i dont have many hcs for frye but i do have a bunch of other characters ive kinda stamped with the he/him gun so. LMAO

i do think id probably draw frye with a bindi mayhaps... idk tho, also i think the longer the teefies the better so tusks are fuckin awesome, and i might draw him with a binder since in my eyes that yellow top is fuel to the transman fire/j
