#this is abt the perfectly regular au btw

[llumimoon]

i am so cool and normal <- thinking SO HARD abt Regular

[izru]

junkzuru headcanons

in celebration of me n @enshima​

THIS IS KINDA LONG IM SOWWY BUT I HAVE A RLY STRONG SENSE OF ALL OF THIS 

(Dr3 Didnt Happen Btw)

in the regular timeline/canon:

how i Imagined the timeline to happen

at first izuru was. Angery. he wasn’t rly apathetic just overly frustrated when he got bored with things

junko heard abt him from matsuda and was Interested right away. not only for her plans but bc , if he had every talent, she found someone like her

tbh the meeting proably did go like it did in the dr3 anime, altho i doubt he was as Apathetic. he was mildly interested, but like in the anime, he was like, I dont undertand  the point? its not my purpose?

n the grow to despair was more gradual 

ok away from the timeline shit bc its p much just like the anime

junko played w/ his hair n brushed it / put it in different styles a lot, she loved how Snazzy n Cool he looked in his suit but tried to get him to wear other clothes a lot. sometimes he agreed

he wasnt rly interested in anything except when he was with her. yea he learned to memorize her behavior, n even the predictability of her unpredictability, but overall she always managed to surprise him

Constant Casual Flirting.

lots of physical contact like junko hugging him or playing w/ his hair or leaning against him

-

izuru: i’m fairly sure i enjoyed what we did today. it kept me entertained. junko: WAAAAAAAAAAA IM SO HAPPY!! DONT WORRY WE’RE GONNA DO MORE UR GONNA BE 100% SURE! DO U BELIEVE ME NOW ABT DESPAIR? izuru: im not sure yet. perhaps. junko: we’re the only ones on the same level, we’re literally the king and queen of despair! izuru: -Doesnt Deny It- junko: HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

-

sometimes junko gets super serious n genuine n it literally surprises izuru. he always stays quiet, he gives her his full attention as she like cups his face or walks around him or just sits next to him. she talks abt how he’s exactly what she needed in a world where everyone is on a different level, how its so refreshing to meet someone as smart as her. how hope’s peak used him n they’re gonna make them pay for being naive n for what they did. but also that she’s glad they made him. he never denies anything pda or genuine she says, and secretly agrees.

izuru learns to be more expressive, sometimes attacks first instead of being passive/defensive

they thirdwheel mukuro and komaeda Constantly. theyll just be walking arm in arm and junko is leaning on izuru and izuru is walking at the same pace as her so they stay perfectly together n theyre talking n mukuro n komaeda r like ene;

they do thngs for FUN TOO. hard mode on video games w/ impossible puzzles. super mario maker. cat mario.

she tries to scare n attack him in his sleep all the time. he asks her if she wants him dead for despair and she replies that she knows she could never kill him, but wants to keep his life as excitable and enjoyable and unpredictable as possible. he looks away n she always swears that he looks flustered or surprised that she’s doing it for him

he doubts her intentions and has glimpses of his life as hinata a lot, but admires her drive in making her own life interesting. however, even if he’s judging her or wondering whether she’s tricking him, if one of the despairs says a word against her he gets Pissed. everyone learns not to talk abt junko around him

they shittalk matsuda CONSTANTLY. sometimes junko gets a laugh out of izuru

izuru feels a tight pang in his chest when she dies in dr1. he has her ai, though, and often turns her on just for company. he denies doing so and says its only for the grand scheme of despair, but never leaves the room that her ai is plugged into 

REGULAR HIGHSCHOOL AU

junko finds out abt him from Komaeda who knows abt him thru hinata

junko is smart af but deals w/ a lot of shit n sees no point, so she just kinda skips a lot, she’s the teachers’ favorite though

izuru is just kinda that emo kid in the back of the class who never raises his hand or talks but has all A’s, has a bunch of rumors abt him

she just starts. sitting w/ him at lunch every day n at first he just doesnt even look at her but then she starts talking n flirting n he’s like Excuse me?

junko convinces him to start skipping with her n to try to find Emotion in life rather than just focusing on school/his talent

junko learns to be more genuine w/ her feelings n they have a lot of silent moments at night where they just sit next to each other and sense how the other is feeling
