“ stepdad! matt headcanons ★ “

— ꒰ 🍒 𝗌𝗎𝗆𝗆𝖺𝗋𝗒 ꒱ headcanons of stepdad matt (daughter)

— ꒰ 🐁 𝗐𝖺𝗋𝗇𝗂𝗇𝗀𝗌 ꒱ none, just fluff!

— ꒰ 🗯️ 𝗆𝖺𝖽𝖽𝗌 𝗇𝗈𝗍𝖾 ꒱ i might be warming up to dad fics idk we’re gettin there — also! for my baby @freshloveee

— ꒰ 🎀 𝗍𝖺𝗀𝗅𝗂𝗌𝗍 ꒱ lmao none for now i got rid of my old one

matt with a toddler (2-5 ish)

— matt didnt know you even had a kid. you two met at some random L.A party and after hitting it off and going on dates you always ended up at his house.

— but one night he offered to take you home and a kiss goodbye in the car turned into a kiss goodbye at the door then you two are stumbling inside and he’s pressing you against the door.

�� just as he starts to trail kisses down your neck, quiet footsteps are heard running down the halls followed by the sound of a rather small human falling on the floor with a ‘plop’.

— you panickly push him off you, mama bear instincts rush in as you walk over to your sweet babygirl to see if she’s okay. the whole time matt is just watching from the door confused, thinking it must be your really small sibling until the child cheers out a ‘mommy!’ and excitedly bounces up and down on the ground.

— you pick her up, resting her on your hip before slowly turning to face matt. he’s speechless, you never mentioned having a kid before, but at the same time he fully understood why.

— he didn’t try and put up a fight when you ask him to leave, knowing it’s not his place to try and stay, but god a part of him really wanted to.

— surprisingly, you woke up the next morning to a good morning text and an offer of going out for breakfast with matt. you were hesitant, but still got ready and after dropping off your daughter at her usual daycare center you made your way to the diner.

— after that morning, and many mornings, you were finally ready for them to meet. matt was more than ecstatic when he finally got to formally meet her, and even brought a flower and asked for her permission to continue ‘seeing you’, which in response was just blabber.

— months later, you and matt were already dating and he was over everyday. he truly admired seeing how you worked motherhood, but still pitched in and took care of your daughter when you needed help- whether it was preparing her food or holding her whilst you ran to grab something.

— but a whole year later is a different story.

— matt was considered moved in, but still continued the life he built with his brothers in L.A. . though, whenever they were filming a video for youtube and he got a message from you asking if he could come over he would drop everything and rush over there.

— on a particular day, you had asked if he could just watch your daughter for a little whilst you run and doing a quick errand. matt of course said yes, but had nerves. they’ve never been alone together for a long period of time and what if she starts crying and he can’t calm her down?

— the worries went away within fifteen minutes when she was yet to cry, busying herself with spongebob and coloring books that she just had to show matt so he could praise her excellent coloring skills.

— he made her snacks, just a bowl of cheezits and apple slices with a juice box, and remained patient with her the whole time. eventually, she got abandoned the coloring book and tv, her little body was screaming for a much needed nap.

— she climbed up the couch, without the help of matt because she insisted she was ‘a big girl’ and could do it on her own, and cozied up on him. he stayed still, barely breathing when he felt her snuggle him.

— matt played with her hair to help sway her into a sleep, because who wouldn’t fall asleep with someone playing with their hair ??

— just before she fully shut her eyes she mumbled out, “goodnig’ daddy i love you” and then sleep took over and was knocked out cold.

— matt’s heart dropped. all he wanted to do was drop to the floor in a panic and roll around on the ground crying until he was okay.

— he was mentally freaking out. obviously, she was too little to not grasp the concept of him not being her actual dad, but it’s not like matt would reject and make fun of her for thinking so.

— when you got home matt was still hyperventilating over this.

— after slowly picking her up and carrying her to her own bed, you sat next to him as he literally fell into your own lap, looking up at you with tears filling his eyes all over again.

— “she-she called me-m- oh god! she- she-“ poor guy couldn’t stop stuttering for ten minutes. “yeah, she call you that all the time when you’re not here.” and matt’s in disbelief that you just said that as if it’s the most casual thing ever.

— after that, matt fully embraced it. someone walking up to him asking for his number? no, he has a wife girlfriend and daughter at home. you three having bonding time at the park and another couple asking which kid is yours? matt’s pointing at her and proudly saying ‘that one! she’s our kid.’

— all her birthday parties his family attends. chris and nick had to ease into the thought of being turned into uncles within a minute, but after that they were constantly fighting about who was her favorite.

— chris would run around the house and sneak her treats when you and matt aren’t looking, while nick literally viewed her as a bestie and would steal her away. he tells her all the tea, nodding his head at the nonsense she would speak back.

— matt spends all his money on stuff she doesn’t need. his babygirl gives slight interest to it and he’s already checking out, saying he just wanted her to be the coolest kid on the playground.

Kiss Tax - Bart Allen x Reader

Word Count: 1,856

Summary: Bart had always been affectionate in your relationship. Quick to give or ask for anything from a hug to a kiss – the latter of which he had made a habit of giving before each mission he went on. At least when it wasn’t something last minute or it was manageable. But you had finally decided to return the affections more yourself, beginning to ask for a “kiss tax” on small things such as passing through the door or handing over a drink. A practice that Bart seemed more than happy to adopt and turn around on you just as quickly.

Notes: Partially inspired by something from Feels Like Fighting Gravity, one of my upcoming OC/Canon fics, where Wisteria tends to demand a “kiss tax” for things – I thought it was cute. Also, inspired by a relationship headcanon that Bart tries to kiss his partner before each mission, just in case.

…★…

It was quiet.

Far too quiet.

You had been reading in absolute silence by the window for some time now, a storm pounding on the windowpane in a consistent lull, only interrupted by the bright white flash of lightning and the cracks of ground shaking thunder that sent a vibration through your home and body.

The quietness that had you narrowing your eyes and sliding a bookmark between pages was not the silence of nature – not with its ongoing war cry – but rather the silence of your home. It was unnerving, unnatural, after becoming so used to the sounds of a speedster making himself comfortable within the walls. Setting the book aside you reached over, grabbing your phone and flicking the screen on to see the time: 4:57 PM. Bart had been due back from his 3-day mission more than 3 hours ago. Granted, it wasn’t uncommon for a speedster to be late back from anything, but for such a stretch of time with no word from him, it was becoming concerning.

But you had faith in your partner and knew when he was free from his duties or the debriefing – or wherever he was – that he would be back. That was not to say, however, that it would stop you from curling up on your bed and waiting a bit longer. At least you told yourself that had been the plan, but the moment that your head hit the pillows you found your eyes were growing heavy without your consent and you fell asleep.

When you woke later it was with a start and a pressure pressed against your entire body, one that was vibrating as it laughed. Just as quickly your eyes flew open and landed on your boyfriend, all too amused with himself and face shoved into the crook of your neck as he continued to shake in his absolute mirth.

Finally, he stopped, just long enough so he could peak up at you and the faint mumbling against your skin could be deciphered. “Did you miss me?”

“I always miss you,” you assure, bringing a hand up to run it through his fluffy hair. “But I’m also starting to miss sleep.”

He said nothing, only pressing a series of too-quick kisses against whatever exposed skin he could reach. The actions leaving you a squirming mess under him as you tried desperately to avoid his attacks, finding yourself short of breath soon enough.

“Bart please, please stop,” you gasped out, one hand trying to pull his head back by his hair, knowing you weren’t hurting him too much, and the other trying to shove him back by one of his shoulders. It did little to dissuade him, his onslaught continued until there were tears in the corners of your eyes and you could no longer beg for him to show mercy. It shouldn’t have tickled you too much, and perhaps you should have seen it coming, but it was the very speed that he left those feather light touches, and the hands on your side keeping you from hiding, that made it all the harder to calm down.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Bart stilled. His hands were still planted firmly on your sides, but he allowed his body to collapse onto yours. He seemed as content as could be to just rest his head on your chest, looking up at you with faux innocence as though he had not been lovingly tormenting you only moments ago. He was good at that, and he knew it. “Too cute to be mad at” you had said one time, and he had run with it for situations such as this.

Finally free to take in as much air as our lungs burned for you could finally calm down. With one hand limp at your side, the other that remained webbed through strands of his hair had just enough feeling for you to pull him forward. “Come here,” you murmured, pressing a quick kiss to his lips when he finally complied. When you opened your eyes and pulled away, the only thing that you could see was the elated grin of your partner.

“What was that for?”

“A kiss tax, you have to pay a kiss tax now.”

Bart cocked his brow at you. “What am I paying for?”

“For tickling me, you menace. And maybe I’ll make you pay another one for being cute.”

“What if I don’t want to pay the tax?”

“Sorry,” you huffed, a gentle hand to his cheek, “no tax fraud allowed.”

Bart only laughed, following your gentle pull before kissing you once again. “For being attractive?”

You rolled your eyes at his words, moving to correct him swiftly. “For being criminally cute.”

“I think I can live with the kiss tax, even if it’s just to get you to start kisses more.”

You waved him aside, knowing it wasn’t a rude jab. Bart had known about your shy nature and your hesitance at giving physical affection on that level. It was well discussed. But it did not stop him from poking fun at it on the rare occasion.

But what you had not known that day, after fully deciding to lean into the kiss tax idea - because your boyfriend deserved it, and always made time to give you what physical affection he could, including a goodbye kiss before every mission – was just how happy it would make Bart. And just how eager he would be to pay said tax for each little thing.

But three weeks later it was resoundingly clear to you.

Bart had always been the more affectionate of the two of you – not that it wasn’t mutual. But he had never shied away from asking or surprising you with hugs or a quick kiss, he gave compliments like he needed to do so to breathe. It was a pre-fight good luck charm for him to find you wherever you were and kiss you before he had to go unless he did not have the time. Hand holding, domestic mornings just cuddling in bed, hyping you up to those around you. It was just the way he was.

And in private you returned his affections. Your own flustered nature leaving you stuttered over it in the company of others. You enjoyed it nonetheless.

But now Bart had gotten a taste of you regularly starting these moments, and he was enjoying it.

“Can you hand me that water?” he called, puppy dog eyes on full display as he stared longingly at the bottle from over the bed of the couch.

You could only shake your head at his antics before bringing it to him, still partially distracted by something you had been reading on your phone; Anita had been recorded during one of her saves recently and you were checking the highlights, mentally reminding yourself to congratulate her later. Your train of thought was interrupted when Bart cleared his throat. Puzzled, you stopped, looking at him in a silent question of what was wrong.

“I have to pay the tax, don’t I?”

You could feel the way your lips twitched up at the corner. You couldn’t miss the chance to mess with him. “I don’t know if I'll be collecting any tax on water.”

He looked like a kicked puppy almost immediately. He would put Dox to shame with the sad eyes he was pulling.

“But you took tax the other day.”

You could only roll your eyes before motioning him forward, the air knocked from your lungs when he practically threw himself over your lap. So much for reading the rest of the article, you mused, tossing your phone aside. You took a moment and just squished his face between your hands, earning a grumble as he turned away to break your hold. “Alright,” you said, relenting at last, “come here you big baby.”

Bart was more than happy to oblige, stealing a kiss faster than you could even register the act.

But when he pulled back, he had that look on his face you sometimes found you would regret later, like he knew something, or was planning something. You ignored it, knowing full and well that if he wanted to keep his secrets for the time he would, especially if he thought it would make the payout all the better.

The best you could do was enjoy the tranquility of the moment and resign yourself to whatever fate awaited you.

That fate, as you found out only hours later, was Bart now flipping the script on you.

Where it had previously been you requesting a kiss tax before letting him into your bedroom, Bart now stood in front of it, puffed out and taking up as much space as he could. “You need to pay the tax, sorry babe.”

You snorted and crossed your arms. “I need to pay the tax in my own place?”

“Don’t you do that already?”

Your arms drop to your sides as you sigh. “Alright, come here, you.” You pull him forward and give him a kiss, before ducking under him and making for the kitchen before he can change just how much tax you owe. Not that trying to outrun him has ever worked in your favor before anyways, but it always seems to make the both of you laugh, and that’s enough.

But his demands for kisses don’t stop there, and you find that Bart seems to have found a new past time – finding what things he can still do for you and still be able to collect tax. It isn’t every time, thankfully, so it keeps you on your toes enough. Nor does it seem to diminish just how excited that he gets each time you still make him pay with a quick kiss as well.

That’s good, because the way he lights up is something that you’re hoping you get to see for a long time to come still.

An admission you let slip after stealing another kiss when he tries to pull you in to cuddle.

Bart seems to go completely soft at that, eyes half lidded, and arms thrown around your waist so he can pull away long enough to just watch you for the moment. “Anybody saying you can’t?”

“No, but I wanted you to know. I don’t always tell you as much as I maybe should.”

Bart breaks out in a smile there – he could put the sun to shame – but it’s just as soft as it is bright. “You show me all the time.”

You can only raise a brow at that. “Really?”

“You do,” he insists, pulling you closer. “It didn’t take me that long to figure out how you show it.”

It's like a weight you didn’t know had been there is lifted when he says that. The kiss tax had been in part to show him that you cared just as much, and knowing that he already knew? It put you at ease. Enough so that you quickly found yourself curling into his chest to be lulled asleep by his heartbeat, aware he wasn’t far behind you.

RANDOM KEIGO HEADCANONS ೃ⁀➷

¸ .　　★　° :.　 . • ° 　 .　 *　:.　☆

- I have a feeling that this man has astrological positions in gemini, scorpio and leo. I leave to your judgment.

He is not interested in the subject, he always says "I just know that I am 100% compatible with you, the rest does not matter"

- IT MAKES HIM CRAZY that you use his clothes, you know to sleep and stuff.

And gosh, the first time you put on his hero jacket he lost his mind. You will know what happened next

- This man is very intelligent, only sometimes he likes to feign dementia. Because of his relaxed and disinterested attitude, you never imagined that he is good at numbers, it is where his mental speed stands out the most. He calculates things too well and too fast. So fucking hot.

-He is also one of those who spits out curious facts out of nowhere and gives you his opinion about it.

- He prefers cats and I don't take no for an answer.

-When he's upset about something he'll make exaggerated sighs, make weird noises or cross his arms while frowning so you can rock him in your arms and ask him what's wrong. Damn dramatic.

-HIS charming and fake LAUGH that the press and his fans know about is nothing compared to his real laugh. It's so airy and loud that the first time you heard it you couldn't hold it and you ended up laughing together.

-Speaking of his laugh, when he is laughing out loud he is one of those who have to hit something yes or yes, he stops looking funny when he accidentally hits you on the shoulder or on the back.

-Although he is not as strong as Endeavor or All Might, he is very strong and has good physical condition. If you have to do some work that requires physical strength and that you can easily achieve, you ask him to do it, it generates things in you to see him work.

- He eats a lot, too much. It's salty team but it doesn't dislike sweet either.

-HIS HANDS. We have already mentioned that he loves that you touch him, you are not far behind since one of your weaknesses is his hands. The romantic way in which he cups your face, strokes your hair, or when he places his palm against yours to make fun of the difference in size just enchants you.

-He always talks, we know he is a charlatan. But more than talking to you, he loves to listen to you, he likes that you tell him things or anecdotes, even what the book you are reading is about.

-His guilty taste is the "girl songs" of the 2000s, sometimes you hear him hum some.

- Watching movies with him are comments or questions every two minutes or a pampering session that ends in something else. The next day if the plot caught you, you end up watching it in solitude while he works lol.

Hello, may I have some headcanons on Hunter Luchino and Jack react to their y/n falling asleep during a match?

｡☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★✼☆｡

Omg yes I love this trope!!! Sorry for the delay

Luchino and Jack with an exhausted s/o Headcanons

｡☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★✼☆｡

Pairing: Luchino x reader, Jack x reader

Tw: none

｡☆✼★━━━━━━━━━━━━★✼☆｡

Luchino

(He looks like he’s seen some things in half of the official art Netease needs to do him better)

|🧪| He knew there was something wrong when he saw you early in the match. You looked like he did back when he would spend his entire days doing research!

|🧪| Luchino decides to go easy on you since you look exhausted and manages to chair one of your teammates only for you to come rescue.

|🧪| When you rescue your teammate, it’s not long before you’re passed out on the ground in front of the hunter and your very concerned teammate.

|🧪| Forget about chairing your teammates- Luchino needs to make sure you’re okay first! He sits down and lays your head down on his lap so you can rest until he can surrender.

|🧪| As soon as he gets the option he does and walks you back into your room in the manor as fast as possible, laying you down in your bed and taking a seat next to you

|🧪| He sits down reading a book of some sort (probably science…) until you wake up

|🧪| The moment you try to get up he gently pushes you back down with a stern look on his face.

|🧪| Forget your matches for the rest of the day, he’s going to make sure you can get out of them and get proper rest.

You open your eyes to find yourself in your bed.. weren’t you just rescuing your teammate? Confused, you start to sit up only to feel a gentle hand pushing you back down into your pillows. “(Name), you need to rest.” Luchino sets his book down and gives you a worried yet stern glance. “..But-” He quickly cuts you off, a small smile on his face. “I got you out of your matches so you can sleep, (Name), you need it.”

…

Jack

(He’d be a pretty good baby girl if he wasn’t a killer..)

|🔪| Jack doesn’t see you until you come to rescue your teammate from being chaired, and boy do you look exhausted!

|🔪| Out of pity (or maybe morbid curiosity) he lets you rescue your teammate despite the fact you can barely stand up. It’s no surprise to him when you pass out.

|🔪| Unlike Luchino, Jack has no desire to spare your teammates even if you’re out cold, and simply Carries you around for the rest of the match as he hunts.

|🔪| Once the other three survivors are out though he surrenders so he can walk you back to your room.

|🔪| Tucks you into bed and runs his hands across your face, it’s not everyday he gets to admire you up close like this.

|🔪| When you eventually wake up, you’re met with a kiss on the lips and the ever prominent smirk on Jacks face (assuming you can see it… let’s just say you can)

|🔪| He’s not going to let you do another match for the day, and makes sure you don’t get out of bed if you don’t need to.

“Jack..? What happened to the match?” You ask after coming to your senses, only to hear your boyfriend chuckle at your cluelessness “You passed out cold in the middle of it, (Name).” You feel your face getting hit with embarrassment before a glass of water is handed to you. “Take a drink and go back to bed, (Name), I can’t have you passing out in front of somebody else now can I?”

…

There we go, hopefully it’s ok :))

porco as a teen hcs<3?? tysm!

MODERN! PORCO HEADCANONS #1 ★ masterlist.

⏤ hii! sorry for a late response, here are my porco as a teenager headcanons! i'm assuming u mean modern hc...because i think canon!porco is too busy with warrior training to actually enjoy being a teenager so i think they'd be boring, but i can think of some if u still want canon-related porco hcs!! other than that, enjoy!! <;33

for most of his teen years, i think porco is just figuring himself out

he probably feels a lot of pressure to live up to his brother (who went to an amazing uni and is doing an amazing degree and is just so amazing, yeah yeah he’s heard it all before)

porco doesn’t really know what he likes and what he doesn’t

he definitely follows a lot of crowds, trying to one day figure it all out

porco puts on a front when he’s in public, as if he doesn’t care about anything or anyone or anybody else’s opinions on his life

but i think in private porco is kinda sensitive and easily bothered by stuff

which is why his day to day life might shock people

porco’s room is a hand-me-down from his big brother but it has a lot of character

porco likes art and draws a lot in his spare time

(he could never do anything with it, he doesn’t love it that much, but it’s an escape for him)

so his desk is full of sketch papers and pencils and he’s that person who has drawers just filled with books and papers and some can’t even close properly

porco also likes to read and has a pile of random books down by his bed

when porco’s like 14 he starts to get really invested in planes and the mechanics and the whole aesthetic of pilots is kinda what his style is revolving around at the moment

he likes the top-gun movies soooo much

he owns one of those aviator jackets and wears it religiously

porco is also a lifeguard as a part time job, again he doesn’t really care much about it but it gives him some money and he gets to use the gym they have for free

personality wise, i think porco is really funny and honest which can sometimes cause conflict and it’s been the reason why he has no friends

then when he hits 16 and transfers schools when his parents decide they wanna be closer to the city that marcel moved to for uni, he meets a new group of friends

porco likes to start drama and then remove himself from the equation

actually he just likes to start shit with people for fun…which is why his mum thinks that he might be a good lawyer, he’s good at debating and arguing with people and doesn’t crack under the pressure of thinking of a comeback or a point or even a source

he probably does use reddit a lot….a flaw..

he’s also an avid porn watcher….like a lot of teenage boys, but sometimes he watches it even when he isn’t horny, just when he’s bored

he swears a lot and always has pencils in his pockets but he refuses to use a new one until it’s so small that he can no longer hold it

porco would kinda like to go into design engineering if he goes to uni (:

⏤ teen porco’s bedroom: a map

it’s small so there’s not a lot going on

porco doesn’t like to cling to his past self so anything slightly related to his childhood is in a box in the loft, he doesn’t want to look at stuffed animals now that he’s grumpy and a teen

his corkboard is full of cinema tickets, he definitely likes to keep the cinema tickets to all movies he goes to

sometimes porco can get lazy with his laundry and just has stuff everywhere but eventually he cleans it up

porco can be very clean when he’s feeling stressed, and he likes to deep clean the house (his mum likes that) when he’s feeling the stress get to him

he has a lot of movie posters in his room

and as i said, the drawings all over the desk

i think porco probably doesn’t have a tv in his room because he doesn’t watch a lot of tv, so his games console is downstairs because he shares with his dad

there’s nothing that makes his room stand out from anyone else’s room because porco doesn’t LOVE being in his room

if he can help it, he likes to sit in the living room in his house with his family or he’s out with his mates

if he’s in his room its to study, draw or sleep

⏤ porco in a friend group

unassuming at first

but he’s the cause of chaos in his group

currently his friend group consists of the warriors (zeke, colt, reiner, bertie, annie, pieck, yelena…the marley team yk) and sometimes ymir when she can be ripped away from her girlfriends’ clutches

at first i feel like porco is feeling his way around the group and then he starts to come out of his shell

his personality is quite “Chaddy” and sarcastic and he often jokes around for fun, never really meaning any harm by his flirty jokes or relentless borderline bullying

he also smokes with the guys a lot and figured out that marcel smoked and did every drug he could name at uni just for the experience, so he has something to bond with him about when he comes back for a bit

he thought his friends would find his hobbies weird but he comes to realise that these guys don’t give a single flying fuck what porco likes as long as it’s not revolting and yk, wrong

bertie, in fact, likes to draw and annie reveals she drew creepy anime characters when she was a pre-teen

porco and his friends like to doss in public places, like at skate parks or in the treehouse that zeke has in his backyard that his dad built for his half brother but since eren’s younger, zeke can take it by force (eren doesn’t care because he’s too busy trying to flip his skateboard on the patio with his own friends)

porco is also a bit of an underage alcoholic but he absolutely cannot drink wine or else he will be drunk too fast and be sick anywhere

he is that kind of freak who likes the Godfather pitcher at spoons and all of his friends think that’s disgusting

porco likes to tease and mess around but he is quite supportive of his friends, even when his words don’t align with that fact

⏤ porco in a relationship

himbo alert

he can find it confusing trying to be himself two times at once

because who he is with his friends is who he is on the inside, but who he is with his partner is also him but with alterations

he is quite laid back and toooo chill, which can sometimes be a problem with his s/o

his partner would need to also be low-maintenance because i just think porco would have a hard time finding the willpower to be over the top

he definitely puts his all into a relationship but it would be shown in ways other than extravagant flowers

he’d draw or doodle his s/o in class or something and probably likes writing love letters like an old man

but he does not believe in valentines day, that man thinks it’s a commercial scam and he’d rather just kiss his partner and give them a cute letter or drawing…cause he’s not spending £8 on some chocolates for one day, he loves his partner but that’s crazy

that stupid boyfriend who isn’t aware of how stupid he is sometimes

but you just need to learn to love it if you want to be tied down to him

(probably said and believes in “bros before hoes” so take that into consideration too)

he’s not a RED flag but he’s turning amber yk

★♦■ for Sirius and Remus <3 (also would love to hear more about autistic Sirius!)

Aaaaaah!!!! Okay okay okay. Let's get some more autistic Sirius in this house then!

★ - sad headcanon

♦ - quirks/hobbies headcanon

■ - Bedroom/house/living quarters headcanon

Sirius:

Sad: he has a stuffed animal his mother got for him as a baby (Walburga cared for him once. It wasn't much, but she tried) He forgot to grab it when he left Grimmauld and had to be stopped from going back just to get it. When he walks into his bedroom during OotP, the little thestral is sat on the pillow of his bed. He breaks down when he sees it;

Quirks/hobbies: hates the colour yellow. It's too bright and gives him a headache. His special interest is transfiguration. He used to transform pebbles into stimming toys;

Bedroom/house: soft lights, dark red colours, see-through curtains to soften the light. Has a carpet in the kitchen because the sun hitting the tiles "make my brain hurt"

Remus:

Sad: during the war he met a group of werewolves of his age. He realised none of them went to Hogwarts, and that's the first time he realised that Albus may not be as good of a person as everyone makes him out to be. Two months after meeting the group, Mad-Eye told everyone a great threat had been stopped and put into Azkaban. A group of rogue werewolves. Remus never forgave himself for telling Albus about the location of the camp;

Quirks/hobbies: always has a couple of Sirius' fags with him, because he knows Sirius will forget his own so he'll ask Remus for one. Remus only smokes roll-ups, which Sirius hates;

Bedroom/house: books, plants, vinyls. Once he and Sirius start living together their house looks like a small hippie space.

Headcanon asks!

Due to an injury sustained during the battle with Ghetsis, Hanzo is considered unfit for battle, lest he get hurt further or exacerbate the old injury. (Don't ask me specifics yet I haven't figured that out.) In a pinch, he can still fight if necessary, but neither of the twins want to put him at risk and so he generally accompanies them as a companion and not for battle or other practical purposes.

☾ and ★ and ♦ for Beauty! Thank you <3

Thank you for asking about Beauty, Nonny! She's so dear to my heart, and at the moment my only active RP character--and I'm always happy to talk about her.

☾ - sleep headcanon Beauty has been a night owl her whole life...

Which was easy in college because she was usually able to schedule her classes no earlier than 11am. One semester she made the mistake of taking a history class at 8am (because she had enjoyed that professor's class in the past), but when she got cast in Romeo & Juliet (in her dream role), the rehearsals ran until nearly eleven each night--and after, of course, cast & crew traditionally hung out at a local bar (Maggie's) frequented by generations of theatre majors. When the need for better sleep asserted itself--

--and it was too deep in the semester to drop that class--she chose to fail, and took it again the following semester as an afternoon class.

In dating Stephen Strange, she could easily adjust to his proclivity for late nights--but as her job makes her an early riser, she's developed a habit of taking quick power naps on her lunch breaks. Still, there are nights when they are snuggled on the couch together, lights out and watching a movie or a series, that she can't help closing her eyes ('only five minutes!' she tells herself) and nods off because she's not built to burn the candle at both ends.

★ - sad headcanon Alrighty, well...I have two to share; both bittersweet, and one must go under the cut for length of post reasons

When she was a child, the person she loved best in all the world was her maternal grandfather, Gramps. As his only granddaughter, she was his princess, but he never treated her like just a kid. He listened closely to her childish prattlings and always encouraged her imagination. He guided her to become an avid reader by reading works to her above her grade level, every time they were together. Brought her books she might never have sought out for herself, and that fed her romantic nature and her thirst for tales of adventure. She had plenty of friends at school and in the neighborhood, but Beauty always thought of Gramps as her bestest. He passed away suddely when she was twelve; it was her first encounter with losing someone, and it hit her hard. But she took consolation in the piles of books he left behind for her, most of which still occupy the shelves of whatever appartment she lives in as she journeys forward on life's adventure.

And the second, sad, little headcanon has to do with sleep as well...

Naturally, being the significant other of a much in-demand Hero and Protector of Earth has some downsides, but all along, Beauty tried her damndest to roll with them. When you love someone, you make adjustments and try to make their life a bit better even if it means some personal sacrifice. When Stephen is away (more and more and more of late) she can't help but worry, especially when he's out of contact for long stretches. And that eventually affects her ability to fall asleep as her imagination kicks into overdrive. So she discovered a little trick to help. She either wears one of his t-shirts or hoodies to bed, to be wrapped up in his scent, or sleeps with the pillow he uses when he stays over, snuggly in her arms. She focuses on his scent and their happiest memories, and in time she calms enough to finds herself drifting off.

It's worked for a while, now--but he's been either gone so long or been too distant when they are together, that the scent on his pillow has faded away to nearly nothing.

((don't look at me that way, you did ask for sad))

♦ - quirks/hobbies headcanon

When something is really, really funny, Beauty can't help that she snorts when she laughs.

Sometimes she's kind of clumsy, which most of her boyfriends have found endearing. Though she is extra careful at work to appear the complete professional, recalling an incident early on in her career where she accidentally got her skirt tucked in her pantyhose in the loo one day, and gave a half a library tour to a group of tourists before she realized she was a mess.

Beauty loves to bake primarily, but she's also a great cook, thanks to the fact that she had five older brothers and took it upon herself to help out her mother in the kitchen even before she started kindergarten. Baking & cooking for someone are key elements in her language of love.

Even though she couldn't make theatre her career, she still stays active in whatever way she can, most often now by organizing little plays for her reading groups to perform for parents & friends, based on the materials they are reading. And she's felt blessed when her little ones have gone on to middle school and come back to invite her to the plays they do, often telling her they would never have had the courage to try out if it hadn't been for the fun of the plays she did with them.

Beauty's a sucker for good, old-fashioned romantic comedies, either plays or movies, and loves the modern adaptations of Shakespeare's comedies in movies such as 10 Things I Hate About You.

Anon, please know that I'm truly grateful for the chance to write about my sweet Beauty. I miss writing her terribly, and this did my heart much good!💗

Hey anon here, I love your work a lot !! ❤️ May I request head canons for Ramuda, Gentaro, and Yotsutsuji as an older brother? (/p ofc!) ★

━━ ∘◦ ☆ ◦∘ ━━

Pairing: Ramuda Amemura x sibling!reader; Gentaro Yumeno x sibling!reader; Yotsutsuji Kannabi x sibling!reader

Genre: Fluff

Warnings: None

A/N: I absolutely love platonic relationship headcanons, so this one was so much fun for me to do! I love how all the characters would be totally different if they were your older brothers! Also thank you for including my sweet angel Yotsutsuji, that made me so happy!! Hope you enjoy~

⋘ ──── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ──── ⋙

Ramuda Amemura

Ramuda is the older brother that you always have to be suspicious of

I feel like he would be the type to constantly be annoying you, asking you where you are and what you’re doing

definitely walks into your room just to ask what’s up and then leaves without closing the door

your parents think he’s an angel and always tell you to follow in his footsteps because he always acts sweet and innocent around him

but you know exactly what he’s like and about his ‘dark side’ so you always get annoyed when they say that

I can definitely imagine sibling fights happening a lot, but the kind that are explosive and sometimes hitting is involved, but it’s playful and it ends with the two of you getting food at 2am

you grew up sharing a lot of things like video games and computers so whenever you’re together you always reminisce about the good old days

Ramuda’s the type to steal your clothes and accessories and then not ever tell you until you need them and can’t find them

which leads to even more fighting between the two of you

whenever he whines about not getting what he wants, you tell him that he’s older than you and that he shouldn’t be acting childish

and when he’s doing something bad, you’re the one that has to tell him to stop doing things he shouldn’t be doing

which can sometimes lead to you feel like the older sibling

he’s definitely protective of you as an older brother, and I can imagine him not approving of any of the people you date, and making sure your friends aren’t up to anything shady

even though you tell him that he’s the shady one and that just makes him fake cry and pout

when he starts working for Chuuoku and the Party Of Worlds, you try to tell him not to, but he doesn’t listen to you

and as much as you want to make him stop, he won’t listen to you, so all you can do is keep trying to get him to leave

overall, Ramuda doesn’t really care about many things in this world, but he definitely cares about you

and the two of you are actually fairly close as far as siblings go

Gentaro Yumeno

Gentaro is the older brother that’s always teasing and messing around with you

he loves playing pranks on you or telling you wild stories (they’re always just lies though)

I can imagine him making up stories when you were both younger, and you just being fascinated by all of them

but then sometimes they would be dark and scare you at which point you would cry and your parents would tell him to stop

or him putting fake, plastic spiders in your shoes or getting other toys from joke shops to mess with you

it doesn’t stop as you grow older though, and Gentaro is always telling you that you forgot to do something just to watch your panicked reaction

there’s definitely going to be a ton of quarreling and throwing of hands between the two of you

but it’s easily forgotten and always ends up in sitting together in one of your rooms silently reading books/watching tv together

Gentaro does keep an eye out for you though, but he always chastises you before helping you

so if you need money he’ll tell you to be more careful and demand you do his chores for a week, but he’ll give you the money in the end

likewise, since he was always older than you in school, nobody really messed with you because they knew of his reputation

and the teachers always loved you because they had him in their class years before and he would always be a charmer

you two definitely team up against your parents whenever the situation calls for it and have each other’s backs when it counts

you’ve covered for him while he’s snuck out to go to midnight slam poetry competitions and he’s covered for you to sneak out too

whenever you come back home for the holidays, you and Gentaro always hang out together and just bond over shared trauma from your childhoods

you definitely have a text chain that’s just a years worth of memes back and forth with the occasional question thrown in regarding how to cook some type of food

overall, Gentaro’s just going to be a fun loving brother that messes with you but also cares about you

Yotsutsuji Kannabi

Yotsutsuji is the kind of older brother you really only see in fiction novels

he cares about you in the most encouraging way and only wants to see you be successful

he’s more than happy to share his interests with you, and wants you to explore whatever you’re interested in too

since Yotsutsuji is an orphan, he probably wants to take care of you as much as possible because there aren’t many other adult figures around the two of you growing up

I can imagine him carrying you around on his back as kids, running through the forest and exploring nature

and then patching you up whenever you get hurt from trying to keep up with him and some of his friends

he never wants to stifle you, so he’s the first person to tell you to meet other people and make other friends

and when you introduce him to your first friend he’s going to be over the moon about it

if you guys ever get into fights and arguments, they don’t usually last long because neither of you want to feel awkward around each other

it can be difficult sometimes in the orphanage when everyone is looking to Yotsutsuji as being the ‘perfect person’ and I can imagine it being difficult to be his sibling

but even though you might feel jealousy, you’re just too proud of your brother to ever actually say anything to him

Yotsutsuji is always keeping an eye out for you as you get older too, making sure you don’t get into any trouble in school or mixing with the wrong crowd

although he’s not necessarily the biggest guy around so he won’t be able fist fight someone for you, but he’ll provide emotional support

I can imagine him being a senior in high school when you’re a first year and him showing you all the classrooms and making sure you know where everything is

he’s always helping you study and I can imagine him being really good at cooking snacks for you and your friends after school

when he becomes Jakurai’s assistant, he wants you to meet him too

overall Yotsutsuji is just going to be the kind, caring brother that takes care of you

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

™ Are they possessive? ✔ Are they holding a grudge against anyone?◯ Do they believe in ghosts? ★ Do they have a favorite scary movie? Book? Show?

Horrific Headcanons

™ Are they possessive?

No, he’s quite the opposite actually. As he feels more and more attached to someone, he hits a point where he will distance himself from his friends. I forget when I said it, but you can tell when you’ve started to pass the ‘acquaintance’ threshold and enter the ‘friendship’ threshold when he starts to ignore you. Suddenly he ‘misses’ your calls, although he never does. He ‘forgets’ to respond to texts. He’s ‘busy’ when you want to hang out. It’s because he feels like he’s a burden to be around, so once he realizes he enjoys someone’s company, he will start to abandon their friendship, out of fear of burdening them. He let’s go of the things he loves all the time and it hurts him usually, so, unless you know that that’s how he is, and stick with him during that phase, most people would usually assume he’s disinterested and leave him.)

✔ Are they holding a grudge against anyone?

(Maybe Gilgamesh. Maybe the empire. But he blames himself more than anything else. In my assumption he knows a lot of Niff refugees, a lot of refugees from all over, and he doesn’t blame them, he doesn’t blame people for their countries military being terrible. If he knew who killed Regis and Clarus, he’d probably have a grudge for them too, but, since he doesn’t, he can only blame himself for not being there.)

◯ Do they believe in ghosts?

(After going to the trial of Gilgamesh, he does, but, he doesn’t want to. It makes him think about how many people might haunt him. The fact that they taunt him and speak and wail made him scared as a teenager. The fact that souls could inhabit a body also disturbed him, but, he wanted to get stronger. So he did it anyway. Now, it doesn’t bother him as much, but part of it makes him hope that he can ask for forgiveness sometimes.)

★ Do they have a favorite scary movie? Book? Show?

(Nope. He hates it actually. Just because it reminds him of stuff he’s already been through. Gore has him staying up all night and he’ll end up airing out his house and cleaning everything because it reminds him of the scent of rotting flesh and he can’t rid himself of it. If you watch a ‘military’ movie with a lot of explosions and gunfire, he doesn’t shake as much as he used to, but he won’t care for it very much. He’ll wake up screaming usually the night after watching one. Military action actually bothers him more than horror sometimes, it can be really bad. Lately, he’s been able to discern between movies and real life and he can enjoy them, but, only rarely. The only horror he would watch would be something subtle, like, an underlying horror, not necessarily scary though. His life has horrified him enough. He’s good.)

#cor likes stupid rom-com and drama #he's watching his fucking twilight movies and korean soap operas u can fucking fight him #he has had enough terror in his life he doesn't need any more #he doesn't want it #so he actually likes 'chick flick' movies #because he needs more happy ending stories #and really he doesn't need to depress himself with someone elses sad story about blood and fighting and death #he's seen enough #although he would be the fucker reading tom clancy novels because he's a sucker for espionage and would be ashamed if anyone found them in #these are my incredibly important headcanons #ooc #ignore me #mun speaks #about cor #cor headcanons #my shitty headcanons at work #amazing #floweringeclipse

stealing my banner from my other blog because fuck it I might as well. detailed headcanon on Isshu, ancient unovan history (nothing that could be construed as modern, literally just up to the Heroes of Truth and Ideals), and the surviving culture. All of this is written AS IS KNOWN BY MODERN DAY HISTORIANS. This is largely why I am writing it on this blog instead of Adair's; lots of names are omitted because those have been lost, it's incomplete and in places not actually wholly accurate to the slightly more detailed version of canon that would be found over on @fusionbolts. I also have a lot of links embedded to other headcanons. So lets get into it.

The Foundation of Isshu

While the vast majority of Isshu's history is forgotten to time, there are a few oral traditions and folktales that have persisted, one of which being the most foundational to their culture: the founding of Isshu and Isshurem's pact with humankind. As expected, the details of the tale are somewhat fuzzy, being literal centuries old, but the core of it remains fundamentally the same:

In the distant past, there was a time when the differences between humans and pokemon seemed impossible to bridge; they lived entirely separate from each other and fought often. At this time there lived a young boy who was born with a gift that allowed him to speak with pokémon. This boy, who walked freely between the worlds of human and pokémon, sought out the Great Dragon, arbiter of balance, to help him bring about peace between their kinds. They forged a pact, that human and pokemon kind would walk side by side forevermore.

At least, that's the general gist of it. (A longer version of it exists on one of my older blogs, if you're so inclined. Fair warning I wrote it like five years ago. Probably more.)

This foundation myth is fundamental to Isshu's spiritual beliefs and their relationship to pokémon, information which can be found here. However, Isshurem has always been core to its belief system as the nation's sort of guardian deity, with the name "Isshurem" itself literally meaning Guardian of Isshu. In the old days, leadership of the nation meant being Isshurem's partner.

The Golden Age

Very little is known in detail about the golden age of Isshu Culture as much of it was destroyed, lost to time, untranslatable until very recently, etc. Part of it is the result of Unova's very tumultuous history and the eventual fall of Isshu, and part of it is just due to the fact that it's a very, very old culture and a lot of their written history fell victim to time. BUT,

The Golden Age of Isshu was, as the name would imply, the height of their civilization, but historically speaking—virtually none of it still remains. The only structures still standing from the Golden Age are the League Building and Dragonspiral Tower. Historians who have been able to study the few remaining writings from the era have also managed to learn something about "seals", a form of ancient "technology" developed by the people of Isshu that made their quality of life quite remarkable by ancient standards. It's also what gave us Golett and Golurk! Nobody knows how, though. The Golett that exist are... all of them. Ever. The art itself has been lost, but remnants of it remain in modern Isshu art and traditional crafts.

The original written language of Isshu has also largely been lost—or so it was thought until the Abyssal ruins were uncovered and translated, allowing them to serve as a sort of Rosetta Stone for the original alphabet. The modern version still follows many of the same grammatical rules (and uses the same pronoun system!), but beyond that, there's little resemblance.

In short: little is known about Ancient Isshu, but it was believed their civilization was highly advanced for the time. They were, perhaps because of their advanced technology, or perhaps due to their distance from many other regions, an extremely isolationist culture and did not have much exchange, cultural or otherwise, with the other large civilizations at the time. That was, until...

The Fall of Isshu

Short version: colonialism happened.

The long version: Paldea, Kalos, and Galar sometimes just got done fighting a real big war and somebody (we won't name names) set off a superweapon and just decimated both armies entirely.

Wars are very expensive and this was a large problem for everybody, so with this on top of it, two of those countries came out pretty broke and the third was having its own problems with a giant space worm and some dogs. It was a bad time! The solution? INVADE SOME OTHER COUNTRIES ABOUT IT!

Again, this is a particular part of history that is not especially well-documented from the Isshu/Unova side of things. Historians know that Isshu's rather limited military force was not prepared for the attacks, which made them a pretty easy target. We also know the then-sovereign of Isshu was killed in the ensuing conflict, and the original dragon was presumably quite badly wounded, which ultimately led to Isshu's utter defeat at the hands of invading foreign forces. (It is believed that the Abyssal Ruins, dating back to that general era, are a tomb or memorial for the last King.)

This is the period in which most of Isshu culture was lost. Either it was taken by foreign forces (which is why we have Golett outside of Unova!) or destroyed utterly. For the next two centuries, much of the remnants of these people lived in the northern, mountainous regions of their country, where they could live more or less in peace. At this point, the Village of Dragons becomes the last bastion of Isshu civilization, and remains that way for... pretty much the rest of their history.

The Isshu people were not treated well during this time, as tends to happen with colonialism. I will not go into heavy detail as I think we can all fill in the gaps as to what that means, but it wasn't a great scene. (Slightly further detail on all of that and the leadup to the Unovan Revolution can be found here.)

In the meantime, the three major countries that had done that colonialism and also had done a war with each other right before... started fighting again. Shocking. It was less of a full-on war and more infrequent, but definitely regular territorial squabbles that, unfortunately, the remaining Isshu got dragged into. So you know what that means!

The Unovan Revolution / Foundation of Unova

Two brothers and a dragon do a revolution! Again, this is not an especially well documented period of history, but it is heavily mythologized thanks to it being the precursor to Reshiram and Zekrom. The short version is a couple of guys found Isshurem, who most people thought was dead, and it helped them do a revolution. (The full story is much more complicated than that, but you get the idea.)

As you can imagine, this was incredibly important. Arguably, the foundation of Unova was the only thing that allowed Isshu culture to survive in any form during the modern day. But it wasn't without its problems. As with any colonial state, people were, uh, having some complex feelings about who rightfully belonged there and who didn't, the direction of this new country, etc. etc., which would inevitably create a schism between the two brothers who started the revolution, and... Well, we know the story from there. Three dragons!

The ensuing conflict(s) and family drama would drive the then-kings to their deaths and leave the dragons stuck in rocks for a few millennium while the new Unova got to mythologize them.

There is reason to believe that while the Heroes of Truth and Ideals were both in agreement of trying to restore and preserve Isshu culture (generally accepted as being the culture they came from), their successor let it languish for unknown reasons, presumably political. (Ironically, it's pretty well known that their successor was the progenitor of the Harmonia royal line... Harmonia being an Isshu name.)

Modern Isshu Culture

As to be expected, there are still remnants of Isshu's culture and people within Unova, particularly in the northeast. While it's been through some extremely tumultuous times, even after Unova's founding, there have been some troubles with homogenization. But, nevertheless, there remains a handful of people who consider themselves Isshu and keep a few key cultural practices (copy and pasted from another headcanon, you're welcome):

1. Isshu do not (traditionally) use pokéballs. Tradition is to find and befriend a partner pokémon without catching them. Now, mind you, in the modern day and age, this isn't always practical, so some would opt to capture a pokémon after formally befriending them, particularly if their partner was especially large, dangerous, etc. However, a partner pokémon is typically kept outside of their pokéball as much as possible.

2. Isshu do not eat farm-raised meat, but wild-caught meat is acceptable. Again, practically speaking, this is somewhat difficult in the modern day: that accounts for, y'know, most meat products. Depending on where they live, many Isshu are effectively vegetarian or pescatarian. (The rules regarding animal byproduct, like in gelatin, are a little loosey goosey, but it's generally regarded as fine: ultimately, it abides by another core principle of Isshu culture, which is to respect the body of what you hunt/kill as to not let it go to waste. What isn't used should be returned to where it was found and returned to nature.)

3. Though far from a hard rule by any means, Isshu marriage tradition dictates that the couple exchange emblems of their partner pokémon when engaged, so the couple is symbolically always together. It's all very cute.

4. The major cultural holidays take place on the summer and winter solstices, with the latter being the cultural new year, much like how other cultures recognize a lunar new year. Minor holidays are on the equinoxes.

5. Again, this is far from a hard rule, but music is a very important component of Isshu culture. Many of their core mores and norms are born from concepts that are, culturally and linguistically, tied very HEAVILY to music. As such, it's extremely common for Isshu children to learn how to play an instrument.
