Yoooooo! Any favorite Rui headcanons of things that weren't explicitly stated in-game?
hello hello hello thank you for the ask!!
i have loads and loads of rui hcs, probably so many that i can't actually list them, but here's some from the top of my head:
he has a corner in his room filled with platypus plushies. he says he's not collecting them (and he's not, nene and mizuki just keep giving him platypus plushies for his birthday and stuff) but he's accumulated quite a large number of them. eventually he starts naming them. one of them is named 'cornelius the 37th'. don't ask how i came up with that because idk either lmao
again with the platypus plushies, sometimes he takes one and puts it on his lap when he's working on robots/a new show. when he gets in a tough spot he picks it up and squishes it. usually after a few minutes an idea pops into his brain. healing plappus.
and ANOTHER ONE ABOUT THE PLAPPUS. emu accidentally gave him an otter plushie and he said "oh its okay! the platypus family can just adopt them :)" (its because of rui that i have an unbridled love for the platypus now. doesn't help that i'm australian)
i think he's a bit cuddly! (this one is me projecting) sometimes he'll come up behind his friends and just. hug them from behind and if possible rest his head on their shoulder/head. most of his friends (tsukasa, nene, mizuki) find it weird but cute. emu loves it!
(adding onto that last one. neck nuzzles. always.)
okay this next one is MAINLY the fault of @/ticklish-n-stuff (and also you. somewhat. dw that's a good thing!!) but. HE'S TICKLISH. SO TICKLISH. ticklish hands. ticklish tummy. ticklish sides of the neck. ticklish everything.
and also he can't take what he can dish out. not just in the tickle way but in like EVERYTHING. imagine with me bro: tsukasa deciding to tease him to get back at him and he. he LOOKS like he's chill about it (usual cat smile. usual 'fufufu~' laugh) but on the inside he is quaking. he goes back home that day and just lies down on the floor and starts blushing and squealing and replaying tsukasa's words in his head over and over again. it's a cycle
also relating to the above: if he gets a random gift from someone (e.g. toya giving him a share of his claw machine haul after hearing he has a platypus plushie collection) he will simply shut down. "oh... t-thank you... hehe..." as his face slowly colours. he also squeals over this sort of thing when he gets home.
girls find him cute/hot but he's really not interested. not interested as in he flings his arms around tsukasa and cuddles him at every possible moment. imagine if in-universe there's some sort of wxs fanclub online and there's an entire corner just for rui. it's funny to think about. imagine if they like him because he doesn't look like he's interested. like "*twirls hair* well you see rui is just soooooo cute/hot like have you seen him?? hes super nice but also he gives off this totally disinterested vibe which is like. sooooooo hawt. and also he's soooooooooo pretty like what's he doing here? he should be like a model or somethinggggggg"
also after kami sports fes and when people have warmed up to him more, he probably gets a lot of chocolates for valentines/white day mainly because he's pretty. but also because he's nice!
NO FASHION SENSE. mizuki and nene have to physically drag him out to the mall in order for him to get some actually good clothes.
he likes to be warm. once i read this fic about him being a "freeze baby" and honestly i thought that fit so well and then it stuck so here we are. oftentimes he can be found rolled into a blanket burrito on the floor of his room, or with a blanket draped around him if he's working on robots. he also finds tsukasa to be very warm!
he and mizuki listening to vocaloid on the rooftop. (just think about it... tying in the miku thing...) i have a feeling they might have liked neru and n-buna. both of them still like to listen to the playlist they made together when they feel out of it, makes them feel better.
as self-proclaimed chairwoman of the rui fanclub i cannot let these disappoint. hope this fuels your (our?) love for him even more!

this is a poster i made for my call to action assignment in humanities! it's a bunch of basic and easy stretches for people who sit and work at a desk all day (me)
the idea is that you'd put the poster up above ur desk and do the stretches every 30 minutes or so,, the whole routine won't take more than about 6 minutes to complete and when done regularly it can prevent wrist, shoulder, neck and back pain! :)
all these stretches can be done while sitting (although i HIGHLY recommend you stand up and move around while taking a break from working)
you can get a free digital copy of this poster here on my gumroad!
and you can order a print/poster here from my inprnt!

i love it when characters are codependent. i love it when losing someone feels like losing a limb. i love it when two people "complete" each other so wholly and terribly that one can barely function without the other. i love it when the fear of losing the only person who understands them is so all-consuming they'll destroy anything to stay together, including themselves.
