Wheat fields are more mystical than fields of other crops. You are 7,000 times more likely to meet an old god or see a portent of doom in a wheat field than in a field of like… soybeans.

can i ask for some fluff headcanons with Towa?? 🫶

sparks fly

towa fluff headcanons

A lot of the things Towa experiences when it comes to love are firsts for him. It took him some time to get used to blending in with humans, trying to live normally and up until now he still encounters bizarre things that threaten to let his true identity out with the way he doesn't know how to react to them.

Physical contact is perhaps one of the things that Towa had to grow accustomed to when he entered a relationship. He wasn't made of the same flesh and skin as normal humans but whenever he held your hand, he could feel the warmth of it the same way.

The need for physical contact wasn't as urgent for him but he took every opportunity to hold your hand or give you a hug after he was informed that it's the most common way to show affection.

At some point he'd pick up a book he found at a local bookstore titled “100 ways to show your partner you love them” and he'd commit to doing every single one no matter how absurd they sound.

Give you 100 roses? Write a song for you? Fold a thousand paper cranes for you? They're ideas that Towa wouldn't think of himself but if someone told him to do that to show his love for you, he wouldn't hesitate to do it—that’s how much he values letting you know that you're precious to him to make up for his lack of humanity.

In his own way, he'll show you he loves you. The miniature automata he makes that were meant to be given to you might not mean much at first glance but they were made with thoughts of you.

He might need more frequent maintenance visits to Lagoon with the way his circuits keep heating up around you but he doesn't see it as a bad thing. After all, someone told him it's similar to what happens to human hearts.

Tidbits from the Yumekuro artbook:

Cuit has been visiting Tsukiwatari's guild home a lot lately. He and Gran try to teach Itsuki how to cook. Godspeed to them

Both Cuit and Riche list "Kuchen's chocolate" as one of their favorite foods. Riche additionally also lists "Cuit's cooking"

Elma hates any spiders, isopods, basically any animal that has lots and lots of legs.

Searle dislikes people who bully fish

Adel's weakness is Merry Rose, Canaan's weakness is Volks. What is going on in Yume Tsumugi, haha

You've got Lykos and his dream of making a world where children can grow up peacefully, and Alex and his dream of becoming a true hero. Then there is Urbano (I want to take over the world) and Len (I want to become rich)

Shiharu's likes: People who pursue their dreams. Also people's tears

(Not so?) coincidentally, Alma's dislikes include Shiharu's punishments, and Daste's weakness includes Shiharu

The fairies' profile has a bit that describes how they show they trust you and imagining all of that is like imagining a group of stray cats, haha. Caprice will stare at you, Plow will actually keep his mouth shut and listen to you when you're talking, Navi shows he trusts you by pranking you, and then there is Mateo who will show you he trusts you by giving you a cute smile 🥹

The fairies all have a policy, or a point of view about life that they believe in. Fidel's is "There's no cure for stupid" haha

I'm all for the movement of "if you're going to accept all autistics, that means all autistics. Even the weird ones" etc

But I much more fancy that we just accept weird people point blank. They don't need to share a diagnosis. They don't need to make themselves smaller just to fit into the world.

Cuz, as a late diagnosed autistic, my weird ass could have used just acceptance. Regardless of why I was weird.

archers gloves vs digital artist gloves being opposite of one another

Something that I first applied to working with children, and have applied in a limited form to working with adults: you don't need to tell someone when they read your instructions wrong. Sometimes it's enough to point out what they did right and then whatever they didn't do? You ask them to do it in more precise words, and you make it sound like it's a new request. Remarkable how fast things get done this way.

characters that lose the most important person to them and are devastated by having to live in a world without them and get stuck in a futile time loop that turns them crueler and crueler and more and more fervently obsessed with the person they initially lost because they just want a world where that person is alive and are initially written off as heartless before the sickening realization that their devotion is so painfully human. you will always be dear to me.

I seem to really like the "pathetic boyfailure" type, and I am now realizing it's all Stork's fault.

#storm hawks #nostalgia #How did it take this long for me to realize this

Femme fatale, girlfailure with a tragic past and spunky preteen boy with electric pet is a winning formula idk idk 

(the veronica taylor/rachael lillis effect)

[starlitmothspectra]

It's really fucked up when you treat characters like people and people like characters.
