🌺 Layla loves receiving homemade gifts, but on the flip side expensive gifts make her nervous.

oh, interesting! layla is the sort of person who will appreciate any gift, no matter the cost, as long as the intent behind it was genuine. what doesn't matter so much is it's price or monetary value, but simply the person who gifted it to her did so because they cared for her. how she approaches being given one fully depends on the gift giver's demeanor!

if she thinks they did it just to buy her, she'd be much more flippant with it than say, someone did it because they were trying to give her a fun gift to make her laugh (how she at first interpreted daeran's gifts F) or because they're trying to make a romantic gesture of some kind and will go according to the situation

that was very long winded explanation Lmao. all that said however i am going to give this a 6/10, i won't lie and say expensive gifts dont get assumed to be more joke gifts (sorry daeran...) or someone trying to buy her off for one reason or another. the later definitely make it much harder for someone to approach her and continue to have a relationship with her after that point, as she'll get uncomfortable and perhaps even scared depending on the situation

either way, it's definitely not the best way of getting her attention if your intention is you're trying to court her lol

#ama mumbles #ask game #layla (oc)#thank you ash!!!#this was a very long answer for a simple headcanon lol sorry #all those flowers from daeran she was just like 'lol this is hilarious. yeah ill joke flirt back thanks i do like them'#and then the bath scene happens and she is just like 🧍‍♀️ 'oh no. i think. i have misunderstood.'#gifts are gifts in her mind! as long as there was feelings behind it she appreciates it #she was a noble so it is also hard to shake the casual attitude to just ridiculous ass priced gifts given to you #depending on how much effort was put into it would also change how careful she is with it!#if someone spent a long time making smthing or spent a long time saving up money or searching for smthing they bought for her #she will cherish it bc of the effort it took them. thats why she helps seelah buy the better ring for example!#all that to say the beads lann gives her are Always on her person #i need to draw an end game version of her some time bc those things are never leaving her #youll find them clutched by her dead hands in the grave #you didnt ask that part i just added it in. for me 💕

Hey so I had like a crack/‘perfect’ world/found family au idea that I wanna share but like don’t know how to explain.

So like first off, saved LoV au cause I was feeling like comfort

Arrested/non-hero endeavor (idrc what happens to him but he just kinda goes away)

And OC/random person

(Also adding saved Hawks cause I can haha)

Anyway because this is my world and I can do what I want, Keigo was saved before his father was arrested and before the hpsc and whatnot because that’s too much legal stuff

He was like wandering or something (the cannon time? Idk) and got found by this person, recently graduated law student(lawyer because that is kinda a necessity)

Anyway, they take him to the police station, but there’s like, zero record of this kid ever existing, and so there’s lots of legal drama

Long story short, Keigo ends up living with them and his father gets arrested

Hpsc comes knocking but they get turned down pretty quickly, Kixi (what I’ve been calling the person) can smell bullshit a mile away and doesn’t want their money

So with Shigaraki the whole quirk development thing played out just like it did in cannon, except Kixi gets to Tenko before afo

Now they’re honestly more of an under the table lawyer, and after Keigo, they do not want to deal with all that legal paperwork

Forged adoption papers work fine 👍

(Also yes, Kixi has basically given up their life to adopt lost children)

For the sake of my poor mind let’s pretend afo doesn’t come looking for tenko as well

Now Toga, I made a whole new story for

So essentially, toga (‘s parents ig) was in a lawsuit for attempting to stab her neighbor (at like 8-10 years old)

Kixi happened to be a defendant for her family (under the table business) but instead found out abt the way her parents were handling her quirk

Boom child #3

Now for this part you have to use your imagination, but let’s say natsuo spent a period of time trying to find someone to help them (probably around the time that Shotos training picked up, or when the flashbacks take place)

Kixi is kinda a last resort, and he got the number from an add in the paper or smthing

Either way they believe him, and suddenly Endeavor has this huge lawsuit against him

No one else in the family really knows about this, only that Enji is more mad, and is taking it out on everyone else.

It takes a while to get evidence, and in that time, the incident with Rei and Shoto happens

However the lawsuit comes together before Touyas accident, and over a few months Kixi manages to get the kids away from Enji, and have his hero license revoked

But oh wait, Rei’s in the hospital

Would you look at that, 7 kids in the little townhouse they lived in.

But that’s ok because it only takes about a year for Rei to be cleared, and now the Todo- Himuras are living happily ever after

Also some Shiganatsu, dabihawks, and maybe some fuyurumi sprinkled in because I am the god of this universe and I decided it would happen

(Also no, the todo sibs and the mini kixis are not like siblings because that would make it weird and I really need some of the comfort ships in my comfort au)

Also to clear things up, ‘families ‘ (Kixi/OC, Keigo/Hawks, Tenko/Tomera, Toga) (Todorokis - Enji hehe)

What do ya think?

kixi: i've only had these kids for a day and a half but if anything happened to them i'll kill everyone in this room and then myself ✌

Chapter Eighteen: Girl

Cinder’s life revolved around the garage, working as a mechanic, until that one male student came in looking for a Mercedes and changed her life… AU AH Kaider story. Enjoy!

A/N: Want a fic? You can thank @helpimstillfiguringoutlife for this chapter as it was a birthday gift for her! I started this fic over a year ago and they're not together yet, I'm so sorry to the nobody that reads this ;p

The first thing that isn't generally assumed to be done in the mornings that Cinder does when she wakes up is switch on her laptop and log into her tumblr.

She's met with four new messages:

- Good Morning, Princess!

- Thorne says that I should explain what happened but I don't have a way to articulate it just yet so is it okay if I don't for now?

- I completely understand if you don't appreciate my insincerity and would like to stop working on my car now.

- Have an ace day!

Needless to say, she ends up grinning at her screen for so long that her eyes unfocus and everything goes blurry.

At that point, she blinks and types a quick reply, knowing she doesn't have much time before breakfast is expected to be ready.

- relax, idm, take ur time

- c u at the garage, kite boy

- ps. say hi to thorne for me by throwing smthing at him?

She then deftly logs out and shuts the laptop down, not wanting anyone to stumble across it and find out about Kai.

Breakfast is a blur, laundry is spent thinking about that one time she'd spent insulting her so-called family's fashion's taste, and her brisk walk to the café is silent.

The glass door slides open with ease so she slips inside, shivering as the warmth of the place hits her cool body. For a moment, she thinks she's made a mistake in calculating Kai's working schedule but no, she spots his silky hair behind the main counters within seconds.

Grinning to herself, she joins the small line of sleepy customers and ducks her head down a little so Kai won't recognise her.

"Why the hiding?" someone asks from behind her so she turns to see a girl with a curious smirk on her face.

Cinder shrugs. "Watch and see."

The girl nods at her, her eyes flickering between blue and green as the light hits them, and gestures for Cinder to move as the line shortens.

They don't talk more until they're at the front of the line and Cinder turns, giving the girl a small wink before stepping forwards.

"One 'I like your shoelaces', please," Cinder says, keeping her voice level, trying her best to keep a straight face.

Slightly flushed, Kai nods without looking up. "One 'I like your- wait, what?"

He pauses, drops the lid he'd picked up, and looks up with a ridiculous combination of fear and glee on his face. His copper eyes light up as soon as he matches her gaze, his furrows eyebrows of confusion rising to form a joyful expression.

"Cinder! What are you doing here? I mean, aside from more or less ordering coffee, of course..." he grins sheepishly, starting to make said beverage for her without her having to say anything.

She faces the girl behind her, who's stifling a laugh, and gives her a quick nod as if to say 'voila' before turning back to Kai and shrugging. "I just wanted to see if you were okay."

He nods at her without looking up again. "I'm okay, but I still don't understand how you can drink coffee if it's black, or at all..."

Chuckling, Cinder leans on the counter, only partially mesmerised by the way his hands deftly align the stencil and sprinkle whatever it is they put on top of coffee. "That's not your problem, kite boy," she mumbles, hoping he won't notice how distracted she is.

He must not, or he just doesn't mind, because he offers her the cup and sends her a charming smile. "If you can wait ten minutes, my shift ends then."

A part of Cinder wants to tell him that she'd easily, without question, wait hours, days, weeks, or years for him but she can't even explain that to herself so trying to articulate it for someone else is out of the question. Which is probably why she only nods and takes the cup from him, smiling as best as she can.

"Sure, thanks."

The girl behind her grins widely before subtly saluting to Cinder, flicking her long, straight hair as she does, then placing her order.

It only occurs to her that she hadn't even offered to pay when Kai slides into the chair opposite her with messy hair, a lopsided smile and bright, bashful eyes.

"Hey Princess," Kai says sofly, his voice smoother than the oil she'd used to fix the door hinges in her house just last week.

"Hey..." Cinder bites her lip, then sighs, deciding to just go for it. "Did I say something? I know your messages were diplomatic and all but I don't think I entirely believe you."

He looks startled for a moment before lightly shrugging his shoulders. "Honestly, I'm not a fan of violence. I simply didn't take it so well when you mentioned the whole nose-punching thing. I'd rather all noses stayed nicely unpunched at all times, if you know what I mean?"

She can't help it; she laughs.

Of course, she then promptly flushes and tried to hide behind her coffee cup, which serves as a great reminder of her payment, or lack thereof.

Knowing from his messages that he doesn't feel comfortable getting into why he prefers all noses to stay unpunched, she uses the opportunity to change the topic and says: "I didn't pay you!"

"Yes, that was the point," Kai replies, laughing, his dimples weakening her argument.

Trying her best to scowl - and succeeding if the look on Kai's face is anything to go by - and folding her arms, Cinder shakes her head. "I'm going to pay for it. You can't just give me free coffee, I'm pretty sure that's against your rules or whatever. Won't you get fired for a financial loss?"

"One single drink will hardly jeopardise the entire coffee industry, princess." He perfectly raises a perfect eyebrow and Cinder wants to punch something because everything about the way he'd said that had been so perfect, she'd momentarily forgotten her own name.

"Still..." she manages, angrily taking a sip of her coffee.

He bites his upper lip thoughtfully before his face lights up and he winks. "I found a way you can pay for your coffee without actually paying!"

"You would so fail business class." Cinder rolls her eyes.

"I'm actually top of my business class," Kai says, somehow managing to sound guilty for being smart, then frowns. "What exactly do you think a business class consists of anyway?"

Her brain blows a fuse because she's never attended a class, studied business, or anticipated she'd have to answer a question like that. Luckily, she's saved from stumbling through an answer by the girl from earlier, who comes up to them and gently taps Kai on the shoulder, steeping back as Kai jumps, turning.

"Hi, sorry to interrupt, the boy at the counter said you should go and catch your bus now," she says, her voice soft and sincere.

"Thank you." Kai smiles at her, quickly stepping out of his chair and holding out a hand for Cinder to take.

She stares at it, confused, until the girl clears her throat and she's jerked back into the present, taking Kai's hand for a moment, using him as a ballast to stand.

The girl quietly laughs behind them and heads back to her table, nodding encouragingly to Cinder before sitting opposite a boy that must be her twin brother, judging by the stark similarity between them.

"Cinder?" Kai asks, having opened the door for them.

"Huh? Oh, your bus. Right." She lets him hold the door open for her but falls into step right beside him as soon as they're outside.

Of course, he leads the way, but they're equal as they walk, their steps echoing on the pavement. They don't say anything but she appreciates it anyway, liking that they can be under a comfortable silence without it being too awkard, liking that Kai isn't someone who needs certain things out of their friendship for it to work.

She's almost sad that they get to the bus stop without interruption. Kai seems to be sharing her thoughts because he looks almost troubled for a second but quickly recovers, smiling again, once more sending warmth through Cinder's veins and arteries.

"I'll see you later, at the garage, right?" He looks at her with what should be an illegal amount of hope.

Cinder smirks. "Unless one of us goes blind before then, yeah. Until next time, barista."

They can hear the bus approaching so she waves at him, turning around before he can see her blush when he happily waves back, and starts walking to the garage, definitely not stopping and looking back to fondly watch the bus turn the corner, definitely not.

like/reblog but don't repost, thanks!
