okay anyway i said i already thought of how to make this post about kubosai so here it is hehehe.. (this will not make sense without the context of the other post)

imagine kubosai get together, but after a few months of trying his best to help kusuo out of his shell, aren starts getting worried that kusuo just isnt into it or is regretting starting the relationship..

he never initiates dates or physical contact, and aren has been waiting for a sign that its going well so that he can say i love you or kiss him for the first time, but.. he doesnt think it is going well, so that hasnt happened yet..

he always goes along with arens date ideas, and seems to lean into his touch usually but aren cant think of ONE time where kusuo initiated it beyond a brush of shoulders or hands, so forgive him if he maybe is feeling a little dejected..

kusuo has started doing the three taps thing by now, but aren doesnt think much of it since hes been doing it at least a little bit around all their friends.. he doesnt catch the fact that kusuo does it so much to specifically aren, every single time they come close.. like so much that hes started a habit of every time they hug (which isnt often to be fair, but it happens) he'll splay his hands out on arens back or shoulders and tap three times separately with every finger before letting go. he does the same thing with every finger whenever aren holds his hand. and when aren puts his head on kusuos shoulder during lunch or break at school, he pats his shoulder three times before settling it there EVERY TIME.

and then kurumi tells the whole group about kusuos three tap love code..

and he remembers so many instances where kusuo has done this to him.. but his memory of it is a bit foggy, since he hadnt thought to pay any attention to it.

so he starts to. and suddenly, kusuo is saying "i love you" a few times a day. in every conversation. after every shift in mood or movement.

and on top of how often it happens, aren knows his boy enough to know that hes doing it even less than before since he got so embarrassed by his mom telling everyone. the times where he does do it, which is VERY often as i said, its because he was in the moment and forgot to even be embarrassed.. now that he knows aren KNOWS, and can hear arens thoughts every time he does it, he always jolts a bit and flushes red when he realizes what he did, but he never tries to deny or take it back.

so one day, theyre just watching a movie side by side, kusuo is kind of curled up with his arms around his legs, and during a sweet moment in the movie kusuo brings a hand down just to tap arens three times and then return it to where it was. and aren OUT LOUD says "i love you too." and kusuo jolts slightly out of shock and turns to look at him. aren just rests his weight against kusuo and smiles down at him, and kusuo huffs at him but leans in anyway..

so when people ask, "who said i love you first?" TECHNICALLY aren said it out loud before kusuo so kusuo always says aren said it first but aren always tells people kusuo said it first, and neither of them elaborate to dissuade the confusion..

#can you guys tell im very normal about kubosai #ʕʘ‿ʘʔ #this could honestly work with any kusuo ship. but. this is the best one and i dont take criticism<3 (/hj)#saiki k #tdlosk #the disastrous life of saiki k.#saiki kusuo #kuboyasu aren #kubosai #meows post

Hello!oh my god, Your stories are so amazing!!! May I request for Luxiem headcanon with reader as their roommates? Thank you so much btw :D

authors note: thank you so much my love, i'm glad you enjoy my work !! thank you for your request i hope you enjoy ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡) if you would like something more specific (such as roommate!luxiem realising their crush on you or sumn) feel free to request honey !!

all writing is mine and mine only !! no reposting ,,, this isnt proofread very well sorry for any mistakes or typos !

characters: vox akuma; mysta rias; ike eveland; luca kaneshiro; shu yamino

⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆

˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗ luxiem as roommates ˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗

ʚɞ vox akuma ʚɞ

i think vox would be a lovely roommate, he's very kind and cleans up after himself, and is always there when you need someone to rant or gossip to, he loves hearing about the drama in your friend group or what your coworker did

when he's streaming, he tries his best to make sure he streams when you're not sleeping, but even still he makes sure to stay quiet so he doesn't disturb you as he knows how hard you work ;;;;

vox is a (not so secret) sweetheart, so he definitely pays attention to your likes and dislikes, so expect to find your favourite snacks or drinks in the fridge

especially after he's loud during a stream (or after one of his.... explicit asmr streams....)

you are definitely the first person vox goes to whenever he wants to talk about anything and everything, or get drunk and have a karaoke night and play smash bros together

possibly one of the best roommates you could ever ask for he's such a sweetheart

more under the cut!

ʚɞ mysta rias ʚɞ

mysta is a bombshell of a roommate ;;;;;

you both have an unspoken agreement that you do all the work in the kitchen, after the rice cooker incident ...

you have a note on the fridge that says "0 days since kitchen incident"

however!! despite this, mysta holds you close to his heart and appreciates you, so he tries his best to be a good friend and roommate.

he can be very loud at times so he tries to make his schedule around yours, so whenever you are out of the house he streams so he doesn't disturb you ( •̯́ ^ •̯̀)

when you first moved in, mysta would be very shy and hesitant to open up, so you could go days without seeing him, all because he didn't want to cause you any trouble or disturb you

he first opened up and became your friend when you were watching a movie together, in which you continued to have a movie night every week as much as you can, and mysta loves these movie nights with his whole heart and buys both of your favourite snacks beforehand

you once caught him trying to make a blanket fort in front of the tv ;;;;

he wasn't able to look you in the eye for a while after that he was too embarrassed (୨୧• ꒳ •)=:♡

ʚɞ ike eveland ʚɞ

living with this novelist is like living with a ghost .... you don't see him often, but every now and then you notice the dishes are suddenly cleaner, theres drinks missing from the fridge, and there's food for you in the fridge to heat up

but!! when you do see him, it's like making eye contact with the sun. ike is such a sweet roommate and listens to your likes and dislikes, talking about games or movies or anything possible, in which he recommends you books or games he think you'll like

ike is definitely the type to buy you books he sees and think you will like, and will sit them by your door with a sticky note on it saying "i think you might like this, lets talk about it once you have read it ! -ike ♡ "

because you don't see him around the house often, you bond most whenever you go shopping together, whether its for food for the house or just shopping in general.

he would quietly watch as you browse the snacks isle, the feeling of happiness sinking in as he realises he couldn't have asked for a better roommate (❀❛ ֊ ❛„)♡

ʚɞ luca kaneshiro ʚɞ

luca is in between the absolutely insane roommate or the best roommate you could have

luca wakes up early and goes for runs, even asking you if you want to join him (to which you reply with a glare..)

if you do decide to join him on his runs, he will show you the biggest smile you have ever seen on a human because he is excited to bond with you. he would even take more breaks than he usually does and go slower just so he can talk with you and learn more about you◝(ᵔᵕᵔ)◜

luca also often invited you to work out with him, go shopping with him, or just play games with him. luca loves to spend time with you and thinks of you of one of his best friends ( ⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝)

he often checks up on you if you havent come out of your room in a while, making sure you are drinking and eating well, patting your head on his way out

luca definitely urges you to come out of your room more often, but he doesn't do this to annoy you he just wants to make sure you're taking care of yourself and doing well

he sometimes sits in your room on your bed if you are playing games on your computer with friends, keeping quiet and doing his own thing, just liking your presence

he's the cutest mafia boss ever (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

ʚɞ shu yamino ʚɞ

another ghost that haunts your house ....

we know his sleep schedule is chaotic as ever but he still tries his best to take time out of his schedules to check up on you, because he still wants to maintain his relationship with you

tries to get you things he thinks you'll like whether it be snacks or ... a microwave .. ?

definitely cleans up after himself, sometimes even acting like a mother and going in to clean YOUR room

is going to bed whenever you are going to work in the morning, but he still makes sure to pat your head, say goodbye and wish you a good day

in the short span of time that you are awake at the same time, he offers to watch your favourite shows with you, or even just cook together, chatting away about how your day at work was

another one that acts like he knows what you are talking about when you gossip about drama in your workplace or friend group, but he loves how dramatic you tell stories hehe (❀´ ˘ `❀)

thank you for reading have a good day lovely!!

20+ looking for others 20+ to potentially help me bring a neat idea i had thought of to life! 🌌🌠💫

Would anyone happen to be interested in Monster/Alien x Human RP? I dont have too many ideas for plots just yet but id absolutely love to talk about it and come up with something together! A loose idea that had come to mind is my oc is a scientist or xenobiologist that works in a lab studying non-human lifeforms, maybe your oc is an alien, maybe a monster, maybe something else entirely! Either way, your oc ends up with mine to look after and study. Overtime, inbetween small experiments and scribbled notes, our ocs start to bond and form an unlikely friendship (that maybe leads to something more!). Maybe your oc often expresses wanting to leave and everytime my oc has to gently turn them down and remind them that they cant, before eventually and finally deciding that they dont want your oc being stuck there any longer and helps them escape! Maybe its angsty and they have to part ways after your oc is free so they can go home (maybe they eventually meet again?) or maybe my oc is able to leave every thing behind and join your oc! i think it could be fun to play around with different ideas.

Or maybe we could go with a more classic idea of my oc somehow stumbling upon yours (maybe in a forest while camping? on the way home after a late night shift?) and helps keep them hidden knowing if they were found theyd be locked up in a facility somewhere or something and they bond that way.

Im absolutely open to any other ideas you may have or that you may want to bring to the table, and actually encourage it! Id love to hear anything youd want to do and any way youd want to take this loose idea of mine.

Im not looking for NSFW and dont particularly care for it, but if its something you want, absolutely feel free to let me know! We can talk it over and work something out. Id just prefer more plot over smut if this is the case, so keep that in mind!

Im primarily looking for MxM but I could be swayed into others so dont hesitate to let me know what you're feeling!

I often get carried away in writing which can cause my replies to be more on the longer side, but do not feel pressured to match! I try to match my partners length either way. All I ask is to please give me something to work with so no one liners! It can be hard to keep an RP going when there isnt much for me to go off of.

Im free most of the time and my reply rate tends to be fairly comsistent, though things do tend to come up now and then spontaneously. Whenever this happens, I will absolutely try my best to let you know beforehand! I dont mind slow replies at all, this is for fun and there shouldnt be any rushing! All i ask is that you communicate with me and let me know!

Feel free to talk to me OOC as well! I dont mind and would be more than happy to talk with you. I do tend to like getting to know my RP partners and potentially becoming friends, but I will not be offended or upset if you'd rather stick to Rp-related conversations only!

Thats pretty much it! This will be on discord, like this post and I'll reach out!

like if you're interested and op will get back to you

I can't fathom being bothered by the lack of new releases of media, I have almost always been the type of guy that only gets into media after years of being recommended it, I got into HK after four years of consistent recommendations, and I recently I got into umineko (a more than a decade old VN) after years of hearing about it's predecessor for almost five years, the only new releases I'm looking forward to is deltarune chap 3 to 5 and silksong and those will take ages to come out and I'm only looking forwards to them because I liked what came before.

Like, how do people get into new releases? Don't other people need years of second hand exposure to know whether they'd like it?

I'm not gonna pretend this is a perfect mindset, only getting into new releases because I like what they're sequels to often results in companies becoming too eager to pump out sequels, but I try to only get into sequels or side stuff if I feel like it's gonna stand well on its own.

Maybe I'm not the best candidate to enter this discussion seeing as I don't even watch TV shows (can't afford Netflix and it's been years since I touched a TV) so maybe I'm just not part of the audience affected by this.

Yeah same here. I generally tend to find getting into new media to be extremely difficult because of how picky I tend to be with things and how difficult it is for me to sit still and actually watch it, or find a time where I can deal with the overwhelming fascination that tends to swamp me whenever I get really into something new (emotions are often overstimulating even if they're positive). Which means that there's a whole lot of content out there that is perfectly engaging to watch, read, or play that has been on my backburner for ages, so I'm not at all impacted by not getting new releases nor understand why people might be upset.

Like sure, I don't watch television at all and I don't have netflix (though for me anything that isnt like animal planet tends to be overwhelming, hence why I dont like watching tv shows often) but even then there's a whole fuckload of stuff you can watch instead. TV has been around for nearly a century now you don't need to only watch new releases. And if it's a follow up to your favorite show, then just wait. Learn patience. I'm still waiting for Silksong here but I've got no problem if it takes even longer than it already has, I just want a good finished product that I can watch knowing that the devs were able to work on it to their satisfaction instead of getting pushed through a meat grinder for profit

#anon #reply #im so backloaded on shit i need to catch up on and games to play that i simply cannot fathom whining about the strike

I know you don't do sequels but what do you think would have happened with Renjun and the main character in "when nobody's watching", I obviously think they got together and had a relationship and Renjun lived happily ever after jsjsj, but I don't know if you have a more elaborate answer or maybe a key destiny in your mind.

Another couple I'm curious about is Yangyang and her main character in "Im not angry anymore" from Jeno's fic I guess they did have something but I don't know if you have anything else to say about them.

pd: Go back to write something about Renjun or Yangyang or the 00 line, tumblr is a desert and I don't have fanfics of them :c ily

I really like making open endings so the readers can imagine how the story played out afterwards and what happened that i didnt decide to show in my story, but dear anon, if you really dont mind and want to hear my take on those universes, here is what i imagine happened 🌞

in when nobody's watching, renjun and the reader get closer and explore each others personalities, really discovering how it feels to have a friend that you can share everything about yourself with and not feel judged. I think after all renjun went through, he is trying to heal, which can sometimes cause him a lot of insecurity, but the reader is always patient and understanding with him. Obviously, i am a lovesick fool and i imagine those two ending up together, but that comes after a longer time of feeling comfortable in each other's presence and also the reader deidolizing the boy she's been pining over for years and realizing he isnt perfect and dreamy, but is a person just like anybody else - and still loving that version of him anyways.

when it comes to i'm not angry anymore (well, sometimes i am), you can see that its a little more complicated. Yangyang is very obviously a safe place for the reader. after having her heart broken by jeno, it takes her a while to get over it, and although she always has yangyang by her side, its a little hard for the boy to come terms with the fact that he was never the first choice for her. However, the two can't deny their growing chemistry that comes with hanging out together and the more the reader forgets jeno, the more she feels at ease thinking that maybe, maybe she could have something with yangyang that is worth exploring. and as we saw in i'm not bitter anymore (i'm syrupy sweet), the two of them are discovering a playful, but very deep connection that definitely blooms into something more <3 they were always destined to get together, it was just wrong timing for them at first!

ahhh dear anon i would love to write more for the 00 line :c i am a busy university student, however, so i must admit that i no longer write as often as i would like to, since dorm life is busy and assignemnts are kicking my ass 💔💔 the time and energy i have left for writing is now reserved for my current kpop ult and that is sadly not nct anymore, but is tbz (follow me on @sohnric plug plug) 😭😭 i do however have a mark wip that i really wanna write soon and also i need to finish that jeno entry for my simplify romance series 🤧 whenever i get over my current kpop hyperfixation i do always come back to nct tho, so dont you worry, my journey is not over with them for sure and i will write something for them again one day <3

#💌ask #anon 🌱#fic: when nobody's watching #fic: i'm not angry anymore (well sometimes i am)#fic: i'm not bitter anymore (i'm syrupy sweet)

hihi 💟 anon here 🧎‍♀️

can i req platonic raise a suilen headcannons with a vv serious or shy reader but when theyre with someone whos theyre close with they turn the total opposite??

like if theyre with their with ras altogether tgey become like emu from prsk? But to other people theyre kinda like kanade yoisaki

ahah srry if this was long ,,, but ty !!!

smile!

it's your turn to change the world!!

— ＼＼\\٩( 'ω' )و //／／—

notes: helloooo 💟 anon thank you for requestiing!!!! thank you for the proseka analogies i can understand it very well that way ^＿^ ive def received longer asks (which idm at all, being specific is good !!) so dw lol

this one's long too so do not worry! i had no idea how to go about this, i'm sorry huhu i did enjoy writing it though!!!

to everyone else, you're fairly calm and stoic. you're not often seen outside alone, and when you are out, you talk softly and quietly. you get things done as quickly as possible, and your friends would talk in behalf of you if you ask.

...no one would ever believe you if you said you were the same person with raise a suilen.

on those days you are out, sometimes you encounter rei on the way home. whenever she notices you around (or she hears your voice getting louder really fast...), she slows down until you spot her. at first your hugs are quite surprising, but now she braces herself every time it's about to happen. it's not that she doesn't like them— she enjoys them— it's just that it's hard to regain her balance whenever you hug her while her guard's down

whenever you decide to attend or visit chiyu and pareo before their practices, you decide to get them a gift before you go. usually it's jerky or maybe a clip, something that isn't that expensive. even if it's a fairly small thing (and the jerky isnt world-class...), both of them appreciate it a lot (chiyu doesnt like the flavor, but she is genuinely grateful for you buying this for her.) after all, your bright smile after handing the things you got for them is a sweet enough gift for the both of them

maybe you're in a band or a unit, or maybe you perform as a solo artist. when you visit galaxy to check any open slots, you have the small chance to encounter rokka or masuki. rokka may just be a normal day at work, or masuki's just bored and wants to hit the drums, but their whole day changes as soon as you see them in galaxy— the mood gets brighter and happier, as if you brought the sun down into the livehouse. they love listening to you and love your hugs a lot.

rei noticed it first— your sudden changes in demeanor when you're around with them. it happened as she saw you walking home with your other friends with a blank face or a simple smile, hiding away behind them.

it confused her at first and she got worried initially, thinking you're not alright and you're being forced to do this, but when you spotted her you had zero hesitation to approach her and happily greet her like you weren't just quietly standing behind your other friends.

admittedly your friends were quite shocked as well. they saw it for the first time with rei, and at some point they teased you for having a soft spot for her up until they saw you with any other RAS member and acting the same way you did with rei

everyone else in RAS soon followed and saw how you acted. they weren't expecting you to trust them and feel so open around them— they just thought you were usually like that.

(rokka and masuki probably knew first before rei even... this is If you're in a band/unit: they had backstage passes and you didnt notice them until you turned around.... rokka and masuki were Both confused for a bit and in disbelief? on you were talking so calmly and seriously since theyre Definitely used to your happy lucky smile self)

either way, nothing really changed between any of you. you're still having fun with RAS, RAS is having fun with you, and you're still friends with your friends, of course.

they all enjoy your company very much, and would never ask for anything else.

Late Nights, Crowded Thoughts

A/N: first time writing inanimate insanity, surprisingly?!?! i hope balloon isnt too out of character here, i wasnt quite sure on how to write him </3

this is a paintbrush centric character study, so the dialogue is very limited until the end! happy readinggg :D

WC: 2.3K

tags - implied lightbrush , implied fantube , SPOILERS FOR ALL SEASONS LEADING UP TO THE CURRENT EPISODE (posted before s3 ep9 release)

When Paintbrush came along for this supposedly vacation, not once would they think that they would be seated on an island during midnight, rethinking their life choices as another season of a competition that they lost twice in resubmerged when they least expected it.

And right now, in the most straightforward way possible, they were thinking about Lightbulb.

Paintbrush has always been infatuated by her. They can’t help it - especially not when she manages to make them feel lighter with her presence alone.

Sure, they’d admit that they’ve been an absolute jerk in their second season together, but now, alone on an island with close to nobody that they were close to, Paintbrush found themselves wondering, is Lightbulb alright over there?

Sue them for being worried. Seriously. They dare you. They’ve been rooting for her ever since they got eliminated, and leaving for this vacation-turned-competition, they wanted nothing more for this just to be over with just so they could go back home.

But of course, it’s only a given that they would be upset if they got eliminated. Again.

However, at that point, they’ve been mentally preparing themselves for when that time possibly comes.

And if it doesn’t and they win? Well, they can’t really complain now, can they? Maybe they could even surprise Lightbulb with the prize money once they get back.

Ah.

There they go again, mind trailing back to the bright light that had their mind occupied more times than they’d admit.

Can they really win? They had already lost their closest friend on the island, so who can they rely on at this point? Aside from Lightbulb and her dumb yet endearing rants, they also missed OJ.

OJ quickly took the role as leader when teams were formed, and Paintbrush had the time of their life making up for lost time with him when they were unable to in their first season.

One thing that MePhone4 liked to do was broadcast the exit interviews, and OJ’s was no exception. So to hear that he had faith that they could win the competition, they’d have to thank him whenever they crossed paths with him again.

The more they thought about who they missed, they found themselves thinking of Fan.

Fan was an eccentric fella, in the best and wackiest ways possible. A previous fan of Inanimate Insanity who now is a participant of not only one, but two seasons must’ve been a dream come true for him, Paintbrush would think.

But as someone who had already been in all three seasons, they couldn’t really see the appeal of the pedestal that Fan had put this show on.

In their perspective, reality shows are only fun for the audience. It’s always a constant need to be on guard during reality shows, because as messed up as it is to think about, being put in a reality show is an indirect warning to be prepared to get your privacy ripped away.

It made Paintbrush feel anything but pleasant inside, so they shoved it back down.

Speaking of which, they’ve been working on controlling their feelings. It’s not an easy task, and there hasn’t been any large-scale improvement either, but hey - at least they don’t project their anger in violent outputs anymore, right?

They really need to spend more time with Fan to make up for the amount of times they’ve blown up at him, and they regretted not doing so sooner when he was still on the island. Test Tube must also feel lonely without Fan too, huh?

Thinking back — something that Paintbrush has been doing more often than not as of lately — Test Tube and Fan did seem to share a close friendship with one another, maybe even something similar to what they and Lightbulb have.

No, they shook their head, I can’t make any assumptions.

But they wonder what Test Tube’s up to. Since the previous challenge came to an end and they were, thankfully, back to their own body and not just a face on the earth’s surface — sorry about that, Floory. — they haven’t gotten many opportunities to have any lighthearted conversations with Test Tube.

Maybe they should give her some company when he has the chance. She seems like she needs some, anyway.

They didn’t know how they got so friendly with her so quickly in the first place. Was it because she’s actually a pleasant and level-headed companion to converse with? Yeah, that might just be the case.

To Paintbrush, speaking to Test Tube was refreshing, in a way. She speaks her mind easily, thoroughly and straight to the point, which she excels in with flying colours. They’ve never really been close in the first place, but it didn’t stop them from being worried sick after finding that one day, she and Lightbulb had both mysteriously disappeared during season two’s painting challenge.

After all, how couldn’t they be? Especially not after how Marshmallow went missing just as they started getting closer to her, so who knows where those two might have gone?

They don’t think they can handle losing someone - some people - the same way they lost Marshmallow. Even now, Paintbrush is still clueless on where Marshmallow was, clueless in the labyrinth called their mind.

Even if it had cost their place in the competition, they were glad to at least see the two of them safe.

They even got to hold Baxter on their way out - a fond farewell gift from Lightbulb.

Going back to Lightbulb, they mentally scoffed to themselves, albeit playfully.

But speaking of Lightbulb, whenever they think of her, the conversation that they had on the day of their elimination always came up in one way or another. Although with the occasional jokes that Lightbulb threw around, Paintbrush knew that it wasn’t in any ill will, it was simply put - an attempt to lighten up the somber mood, to provide them with the familiar and lighthearted form of comfort that she thought they needed.

Admittedly, it was working.

It wasn’t as though Lightbulb was trying to be insensitive, no. If anything, Lightbulb would know what they were going through more than anyone.

She knows how exhausting it can be to constantly have the topic of your identity get thrown around. Hell, it even took a while before everyone could adjust to not treat Lightbulb as if she was delicate, just because of a label that she decided to be open with.

To be out about her identity was something that Paintbrush has never even considered doing. They envy that part of her - the part of Lightbulb that was always so honest to others, so much that it made them worry about her wellbeing. But at the same time, they wished that they could express the way Lightbulb can be comfortable being herself in front of others.

That was exactly what pushed them to do it. To finally be honest, after years of leaving people in the dark about what was arguably a big part of themselves.

In all honesty, it was a downright terrifying step for Paintbrush to take. They didn’t know how the other’s would react to it, after all. Would they still be accepted? Or had they failed some of what the others expected them to be? What if they didn’t get any good responses at all?

They were scared. It was an all-out and new experience for them, to be open to so many people. But they had to do it. They were scared, but even then, they wanted to take this step.

So, they did.

And up until this day, not once have they ever thought back on it and seriously regretted it.

All the others were so supportive towards them, even hearing Nickel scoff out a “So that’s all it was? Man, you really left us hanging for years,” which they chose to deliberately ignore. They didn’t really care either way since Nickel was just as supportive about it as the others were.

It still feels surreal, even up until today. It never fails to make them feel all happy inside whenever someone refers to them the way they want to be referred to as.

Just the other day, when Paintbrush was exchanging the Calm Down Cabana with OJ, they heard him talk about them on set.

He used ‘they’. And although they hadn’t slept a wink from the challenge, a jaw aching smile never left their face for the rest of dawn before they fell asleep from exhaustion.

Another time, when Yang had accidentally grouped them up with the boys, Paintbrush had corrected them, which made him correct himself right afterwards, being completely unbothered about it.

Sure, a lot of people may think that Yang might be a mouthful in contrast to Yin sometimes, but even he had his redeeming qualities, and being respectful was most definitely one of them.

…They might need to apologize for voting them the last time they were on elimination grounds. Maybe Silver would’ve been a better choice instead, they thought to themselves, but there was no going back at that point.

And while they were on Silver, lately, he seemed to have been quite… ‘occupied’ with something ever since that elimination day.

He was acting like his old snobby self back in the Mile High Pie challenge, much to Paintbrush’s chagrin, but when they were all switched and Silver took the place of Candle, he looked as if he had more things on his mind rather than focusing on maintaining his royal image. It was as if he was trying to find something that wasn’t even there in the first place.

And, well, they knew this because they were still stuck in Floory’s form, which basically gave them the displeasure of hearing practically almost every conversation that everyone has had throughout the course of the time they were stuck there. Yeesh, was that all Floory had to deal with? Poor guy.

But on the bad end, having Silver step all over them - quite literally - was one of, if not the worst thing that they ever had to experience in their life. Then they remembered all the other times they also stepped on Floory beforehand, and their anger died down just the slightest.

All the bonds and relationships that Paintbrush has gained and built, regardless of whether it was good or bad, made them realize that maybe Inanimate Insanity wasn’t that bad after all. Without it, they wouldn’t have met people like OJ, or Test Tube, or Fan, or Lightbulb. Who knows what they could be doing right now if they weren’t participating in this reality show?

However, did that mean that they could stop making fun of MePhone4? Absolutely not.

“Hey, Paintbrush.” Their thoughts were cut off by a call of their name before it could expand even further than it already has. They looked behind them to see an unlikely someone.

“Balloon?”

He nodded, walking towards them and sat down beside them, bringing his legs together, “It’s late - why are you still sitting out here? Isn’t it cold?” Asked Balloon.

Paintbrush shrugged, “Somehow, I feel like I should also be telling you the same thing,” they said instead of giving him the answer that he asked them for, completely avoiding the question, “The wind is pretty strong on the island at night, so you might want to go unless you like, I dunno, get blown away or something.”

“Very funny,” Balloon huffed, “And how are you sure that the wind won’t mess your bristles up?”

They paused.

Then they shot their arm up to check their bristles, carding their hand through it, “Ballon, are you serious? Do my bristles really look messy?! Ugh… This is going to be such a pain to straighten up again if it is!” They groaned, all the while Balloon giggled.

“What? What’s so funny? Can’t you see that someone is having a crisis right now!?”

“Aha-! I’m sorry! I was just… messing with you.”

“You’ve really been hanging around Nickel too much…” They sighed, “Didn’t TK say something about him being a bad influence or something? What is she, your mom?”

The comment makes Balloon let out a small laugh, “I hope not,” he says, “I think I’d rather have Silver as my dad than have TK as my mom.”

“Wait, wait, wait, pause right there! Are you for real? Really?” Gasped Paintbrush, completely in disbelief of how he, for some twisted reason, chose Silver Spoon of all people over Tea Kettle.

Ballon, on the other hand, was genuinely confused. “Oh, jeez. Is he really that bad?”

“‘Bad’ is an understatement,” they muttered, “Tea Kettle’s way better than that royal pain in my ass.”

Because Balloon hadn’t gotten many opportunities to talk to Silver, he was more than intrigued about what made Paintbrush dislike him so strongly, “Tell me about it!”

That was how they spent the rest of the night, chatting away like time had stopped to wait for them. Surprisingly, they stayed out for a pretty long time, and they got on pretty well, too. Balloon was someone that they never pictured themselves getting along with, and clearly, tonight had certainly proved them wrong.

To have an actual lighthearted conversation with him for once made Paintbrush think that maybe Balloon wasn’t such a bad person after all. Maybe he had actually grown past his mistakes from their first season.

After a little more chit-chat, they both went their own separate ways and called it a night.

Paintbrush was glad to be friends with such a wide variety of people. After a night of wondering, thinking, and a lot of reminiscing, it was about time for them to actually go to bed.

Tomorrow awaits another challenge, after all, and they fully intend to give it all they have. This wasn’t where they planned on losing just yet.

For OJ’s sake, for Lightbulb’s, and maybe even Fan’s, they’ll try their hardest to win for them.

“Its all fiction” jereth x reader fanfic

[tw swearing-lots of it,older brother being an asshole]

[reader is gender neutral and 18-19 ish]

Thank you @liquid-death-and-bones for the awesome ass request! Enjoy! And fuck tumblr for deleting my hour of work the first time.

“Calvin did you fucking touch my book collection again? If I find one fucking page wrinkled im killing you!” I shout down the hall as I stare down at the strewn about books on my floor the hoot of an owl being the only sound i hear back. Clavin is my older brother by barely a year, he calls that span of time “the happiest times of his life”

“Dude its just some books, I was looking for one for a book report” he walks up to my open door frame holding my copy of the labyrinth which I snatch out of his hand. He even did things like this when we were kids and he never grew out of it and always remained immature when it came to others things, he would take my things not put them back, move them around, leave them laying on my floor, even my expensive hard back ones.

“Yeah and you fucking left them lying on the ground yet again Cal ,pick them up for fuck sake!” “Dude no, theyre yours you pick em up” “Im so sick of you! Do you know how many of my books you ruined by spilling shit on them, leaving them places, and not taking care of them? A fucking shit ton! You’re gonna start owing me money!” “Y/N you are the most sensitive little hard ass ive ever met ” “im not being sensitive! this is why you cant get a girlfriend Calvin,you have no respect for others or their things!” “Oh! And like you have any grasp on romantic relationships? You dont even have friends for fuck sake Y/N ! You just read all the time and pretend you have friends.”

I clutch the book in my hand until my knuckles turn white, that struck a nerve..Calvin knew I have a hard time making friends, barely having any over the years and often crying to him about being lonely throughout school. “Get the fuck out Calvin..” I say through clenched teeth my eyes stinging with tears,my brother dissmisses my words with a huff and saunters back to his room, I hear the harsh closing of his door before I close my own.

I sit down and lean back against my door, looking at the brilliantly red book that sits in my hands as I feel some tears slide down my cheeks and onto the cover. “I wish the goblins would come and take you away..right now” its stupid, I had uttered the same line whenever we were kids, whenever he broke my things, fucked up my home work that was due that morning by spilling orange juice on it, never really putting any meaning behind it till now. I close my eyes and lean my head back against the door.

I hear mischievous laughter come from down the hall as well as many rushed footsteps, my eyes snap open as I realize what I heard, I stand up and open my door, poking my head out “Calvin?” I call out, no answer, I rush down the hall and knock on his door so hard I thought I was going to break “Calvin! Open up!” Nothing still, I open the door and I dont see my brother, I walk in the room with caution, I start to grow panicked as I screw my eyes shut“no no no this is all fictional, this isnt real, its just a stupid kid story!” I feel the cold air rush from Calvins window “a stupid kids story you say?” I open my eyes and I come face to face with the blond smirking figure I know to be Jereth the goblin king I observe him for a small moment .

“ That cant be—you arent real! I didnt wish away my brother—why didnt you come until just now??” “My my you certainly have your head on a swivel hm? As for your question my dear the anwer is, you simply never meant it when you were a child, but with those few tears you shed I couldn’t help but answer you” he walks up to me and places a hand on my cheek “am I real enough for you now Y/N?” Careful Y/N this is not the time to make a sassy remark “yeah..so what deal do you want to make? My brother for me? Or do i have to run the labyrinth? Im wondering”.

Jereth takes his hand back in surprise, oh dear god was I too snappy? Fuck im so screwed, he doesnt look angry “no one has offered to stay before,youre not going to beg for you to stay here and for me to just give your brother back?” “Well no —ill be honest im not the friendliest of people sometimes and I dont really have any friends, but my brother does, he may be a dick sometimes but i want him to live a good life, and I dont want to mess that up for him.”

Jereth looked in deep thought “alright you can stay with me in exchange for your brother, but you do know he and your parents will forget about you?” “I know..please just make sure they live well even without me?” Jereth smiles warmly “alright, i dont see why not” “thank you Jereth” “no my dear I should be thanking you, I too am often lonely” “well now we both have good company” we both smile at each other.

[ I will make a part 2 to this because I had so much fun,so for now take this and I will return with more as soon as I can! Thank you once again @liquid-death-and-bones for the request!]

8, 6, 7, 5, 3, and 9 for Barnabas? 😗

aueuegeh tyty srry this took ages,,,

asks from here!

3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 for barnabas

3 - What would their song to each other be?

- to him, i'd show him paint it black by the rolling stones. it fits him sooo well and i think he'd like it!! but for something more love song-y, i'd also show him time will define by fever <3

- assuming he was showing modern/earth songs, i think he'd go for a song like purple rain by prince or maybe use somebody by kings of leon. it's not what i think his fave music genre would be, but deffo how he'd view me/kosmos

- but i bet there are some songs from valisthea he'd hear n think of me too,,,

5 - Who curses, and who reprimands the other for it?

- i curse so much,,, but barnabas doesnt usually comment on it unless we're around other important figures / royals n such

- in which case he'll just sort of tut and say smthn like "hardly appropriate language to use around such honoured guests." he actually doesn't care but he thinks its funny to make me squirm. evil really smh smh 😫 /lh

6 - What small quirks do they love about each other?

- i love his little giggles so much!!!! and barnabas has this half smile/half smirk he does whenever he's trying not to laugh in important meetings

- he always says i snore which i dont !!! he is LYING. but he says i do and altho he teases me for it, he thinks its cute, he'll often lie awake, long after im asleep n cuddled up to him. snoring. 🤭

7 - Who makes the other laugh more?

- he makes me laugh a lot, usually when he's not even trying to! sometimes he'll just respond to others in such a deadpan way that it makes me giggle. its a real problem during those royal meetings

8 - Who gets jealous easier?

- oh barnabas for sure! he is a very jealous person, that meme thats like "u talk to other men? 🤨" but hes also quite...patient? he likes to sit with his emotions before acting on them, so its not often (if at all) that he has those typical "jealous bf" moments

9 - How did they know they were right for each other?

- well, barnabas isnt used to ppl caring for him (or sleipnir) and is also scared to let ppl close to him. he has this belief that inevitably, ppl will either leave him alone again or let him down in some way or another. it takes him a while to open up to me but it's probably late one night when the three of us are cuddled up that he goes yeah... this is what life should be and we're all better for knowing each other <3

- i am actually the last to know. it takes me a while to sort of settle in with both him and sleipnir. im still not convinced he's actually in love with me until after one of the fights against ultima (there's a few, dw abt it), kosmos' powers are completely gone n it looks like they won't come back. and he still stays. even tho im now just Some Guy, he stays and him n sleipnir fuss over me n make sure im okay n cared for 🥰 and thats when it hits that we are meant to be,,

#jupiter.speaks #.asks #❤️.barnabas #❤️.sleipnir #👤.kosmos #> ty!! i enjoyed writin these it was a nice insight into them #> and throwin in a cheeky fever song heueheuheuhe

Here is a fun one... HC+extra lives. ;)

Send me “HC” + a word and I’ll write a headcanon about it.

"Dude, you know that's not real, right?

"Like, that's just some crappy rumor some jerkface made up a long time ago. Cats don't actually have nine lives. "Always hated bein' teased about this. Sure, it's cute the first couple times, but when someone tries 'ta throw you off'a buildin' 'cause you got ''nine lives'' or whatever, it kinda ruins the whole thing. "Ain't sayin' I wouldn't make the landin', I would! Just like, c'mon. We ain't invincible. We're the same as you guys! Just, a little cooler. 'Cause I can climb walls and stall my falls an' stuff."

---

((actually, its funny you mention this! freedom planet 2 already has lore about extra lives. allow me to just

((ahem, and i quote

(("The first five senses are physical - sight, touch, hearing, taste and smell. The sixth and seventh senses transmit the first through space and time, respectively. "The sixth sense is what some would call telepathy. Few can truly master it, especially with technology acting as a substitute. "Have you ever been knocked out in battle and, upon waking, felt like you've already lived through future events? The seventh sense influences this feeling. "It is the perception that what we are experiencing now is a vision that an infinite number of past selves can learn from.

((and already there's a lot of interesting stuff here, dealing with past and future business and visions and even involving the five wu xing elements??? most notably water, if im reading into things correctly ((i dont wanna go on for too long here, going into how i think these two extra elements interact with the wu xing cycle and yada yada, so ill just go over who i think do and do not have a strong connection with this trait

((carol does not know what an element is. she is very obviously the weakest of the quadrio in this sense. she has next to no mental foundation to even begin to peer into the possible future, she kind of just does what she does and goes with the flow. there's nothing happening up there to make this vision stuff happen

((next is lilac, who probably gets these more often than carol [which is to say, zero times ten is still zero] but is also not too mentally sound for them to be helpful. she got the short end of the stick in fp1 and fp2 [i think. i havent finished her campaign yet]. she's still very obviously dealing with trauma and, this isnt even mentioning the baggage she carries from the scarves. however, because she doesnt try to hide it [much], like carol, she accepts it all more than her. this gives her much more leeway to access these visions but, like i said, its not gonna be much help. she is not as headstrong as carol, but is still very much just gonna boost in and ask questions later.

((then there's milla, who is an interesting case, for sure. i think she'd get these the most consistently out of the main trio, but for the opposite reasons of the other two. ((she's uh, kind of an airhead ((her problems dont weigh on her as much as they would with lilac and carol. she's grown a lot in this regard--adapting their carefree attitudes without the downsides [kinda] ((but because of this she's not wandering around aimlessly or stressing over her past crush. she's kind of just doing her potion stuff so she can help herself and her friends and make a living. with the money she makes selling potions she can, well, buy more ingredients for potions. not to mention that she has a very stable friend group [i mean stable in the ''theyll always be there'' sense not in the ''they are mentally sound'' sense. none of them are mentally sound] and is gaining more interests as she learns and grows. her talking to aaa a lot is giving her ideas about his mechanical stuff!!! she's got a science buddy!!!! a science buddy that also helps out with potions, sometimes ((i imagine whenever a potion literally blows up in her face, she'll get a vision about the next time it blew up in her face, and correct accordingly. saves her some time!

((and lastly is neera! she is extremely mentally sound, even despite all of the happenstance that happened in fp2. shit, she's the only one who has an active therapist--which is something she didn't always have, to be fair. she decided to start looking into therapy immediately after she got the regent job, because she knows how much stress itll put on her and isnt willing to fuck up and have a mental breakdown on the job. the magister himself made her the standing regent, to oversee the affairs of turning everything into a democracy, to rule the city-state, to make decisions on her own on how to better make shang tu/avalice a happy place to live. sure, she still has anger issues, and sure, she's not the most likeable person to be around ((but she's not one to want to fuck up. she's the most developed and sound, mentally anyway, of the quadrio. not to mention extremely knowledgeable on things like this. ((i like to imagine, however, that she doesnt get these visions from ''falling down'', rather, she gets them as ''anxiety induced nightmares''--that's what her therapist calls it. it doesnt happen too often, but everytime a big decision is coming up she'll probably get a vision detailing how her alt self fucked up big time and how she should probably not do that.

((all this is to say that uh

((i have a lot of thoughts and opinions on freedom planet 2 and its lore, i guess! ((extra lives are canon, technically! carol cant use them because her brain is too fucked.))

#carol's cruisings #catmun speaks #asks #meme answers #i wrote a lot haha oops #ask-the-infiltrators

their crush caught them staring

includes: shinichiro, mikey, chifuyu

warning(s): swearing

word count: 2095

Part 1 Part2 masterlist

shinichiro

i love this dork so much aaaaaaa

lets get one thing out of the way shinichiro isnt the most subtle when stealing glances

the man could literally hear your name in passing and he's already whipping his head in search for you

whether you do end up noticing or not is really an odd ball but those around you and those around him notice

a lot

one thing is certain though is everytime your eyes meet all cognitive and motor function in his brain stops working

what can i say he's weak for you

It was friday afternoon club hour when shinichiro was on his way to the school's parking to go grab up his precious babu to meet up with his gang

Now shinichiro wasn't ditching perse since he doesnt exactly belong to any club mainly due to the fact that the clubs that the school offered didn't exactly interest him the slightest only because he found it too much work. Considering that most activities required staying after school hours and some even before school hours or even weekends sounds too much for him to handle.

He's a busy man, yknow? the leader of one if not the most well-known gangs in all of japan for crying out loud he had no time for clubs

Though that didn't mean he couldn't spare a moment or two to watch you, right?

You, his precious crush was part of the cheerteam that always held practices by the field which was conveniently close to the school parking where he leaves his famed motorcycle.

God's blessing, he would often say

He'd always be extra slow on his walks to the parking whenever your team had practice (he probably had your whole training days schedule memorized by now) in hopes of getting a glance of you which he thinks makes his day better and if he were in a fight could endure a thousand punches.

Today, he was lucky to see you in all your glory, sipping on a blue sports bottle in the open as your team seemed to have dispersed into their own little spaces around the field to cool off.

'It must be water break' he concluded as he continued to watch you.

God, how could you make every mundane thing and action look so effortlessly breathtaking?

Your hair done up in a high ponytail, the way your cheer uniform fits and accentuates all the curves on your body, the way your eyes light up when one of your teammates called you over who then whispered in your ear and pointed at him wearing a teasing look

he could watch you all day

wait. . .

pointed at him. . .

he glanced from your teammate then back at you who was now locking gazes with him with your head tilted and a soft shy smile on your face you offered him a small wave

Did you just. . .

His heart did flips in his chest and he could feel a bubbling feeling in his stomach

A cheeky smile grows on his face as he brings a hand up in response

A whistle is heard, signaling the break was over. Looking once over back to Shinichiro you gave him another smile before leaving a stunned shinichiro who hadn't noticed he had stopped walking during this whole exchange.

He could see the way your teammate that pointed at him snicker before slinging an arm over you and taking you to the rest of the team who had now looked his way

Your eyes manage to find his again and he sends another wave before he ends up tripping over his own feet in his attempt to coolly walk off.

Takeomi who had been a couple meters away and saw the exchange dashed forward to help his "bro" who had face planted to the ground

Shinichiro's face could never have felt any hotter since not only you but your whole team saw

This was definitely going to be one of his core memories from now on.

In the midst of Takeomi helping him your eyes lock once more, concern and slight amusement pooled in those (e/c) of yours and something goes off within himself enough to have him standing back on his two feet as he sends you once more a confident smile and a thumbs up

Chifuyu

another one of the huge simp squad

secretly or subtly smiles when he sees you

kinda a hopeless romantic and overthinks a lot of your interactions as fate

canonly reads romance mangas so its kinda clear why

also he's subtle but not?

golden boy on the inside

buuut he got a reputation in school to uphold so he cant risk getting caught simping on 4k man

he'll never hear the end of it otherwise (baji)

so he tries to keep the staring on the downlow

he would be the type to turn his head away the moment you even so look to his direction but then would glance right back after a moment or two

on the occassion you do catch him staring he'd flush and mutter a small sorry regardless if you could hear or not and turn the other way

he would never admit it but just your gaze alone is enough for him to turn into putty

Chifuyu sat through his last class sketching on his notebook, gaze flittering over the classroom ever so often. His teacher's voice fading into the background as the class continued on, chifuyu's attention however was elsewhere

He didn't like math the slightest but despite not being geniunely interested to put actual effort into the subject, he knew enough about it to keep him from failing.

Besides there were more interesting things to do than actually listen to some old oaf talk.

'maybe if it was more interesting i'd actually pay attention' he reasoned

unconsciously his blue eyes would lazily scan the classroom before resting on your figure who sat two rows in front looking as concentrated as ever hunched over your notebook as you hurriedly took down notes.

Your side profile was something he was quite familiar with, having been seated adjacently two rows behind you for the last few semesters and yet it was something he could never get enough of.

You, (Y/n) (L/n), were his subject of interest. A mystery he was more than willing to solve rather than some traingle.

He remembers the day he first met you, when time seemed to stop. It was a scene seemingly straight out a shojo manga.

The way your hair bounced when you walked, your vibrant smile and your eyes that met his for a split second, shoulders brushing as you passed eachother in the hallway.

He couldn't help but look back towards your figure that was walking to the opposite direction.

You were mesmerizing. It was then he decided that You had the face that deserved to be materialized on a canvas or sculpted on marble

A smile made its way on his face at the memory as he picked up his pen once more and gliding it over the sheet of his notebook with light memorized strokes.

He couldn't remember when he did start making sketches of you when he was bored but it was enough to fill a month's worth of a notebook

As if it were muscle memory by now, chifuyu swears he might even have your whole side profile and features memorized by now

Bringing his cheek to rest on his open palm he continues with his little sketch, eyes alternating from you and to the drawing trying to make sure they were made almost as accurate as he could.

Though you must've sensed someone staring because you shifted in your seat a little and turned your head towards his direction slightly to which he shifted his head and gaze back down to his notebook to avoid getting caught

Though once he looked up to glance at you once more he was surprised to see you both locking gazes.

Heat slowly rushed up to his face as he was caught in the act, blinking away he mumbled a small "sorry" despite not you being able to hear it before turning his attention to the teacher for the first time this whole period.

His ears still burned pink minutes after but he missed the way you smiled at his cute fludtered antics.

Mikey

Stares at you with the intention of having you look back at him

Boy loves attention in general but he loves it more when the attention comes from you

having his eyes meet yours sends him to a different type of happiness and is the type to smile when it happens

maybe even call your name and send a wave your way

looks calm on the outside but is really giddy on the inside

would tune out the entire world snd focus solely on you whose attention has landed on him

wont be the one to look away first unless its really urgent

if he could he would love to have your gaze on him forever and his on yours

he gets the sudden need to show off whenever you look his way but he tries to be subtle about it

keyword to subtle

Emma squealed as she tugged Mikey's arm and dragged him towards the entrance of the mall where his friends were waiting.

Among those friends were Draken, Chifuyu, Takemichi along with Hina

The latter being excited upon seeing the female Sano met her halfway into a hug before ditching the four males and entered the mall with linked arms.

“I guess that’s our cue to head in,” Draken sighs

Thinking back at it now Mikey doesn't exactly remember the last time this month he had visited the mall at all since most his outdoor trips consisted of the sweets shop two streets down that sold his favorite dorayaki and the musashi shrine where they held their Toman meetings.

Perhaps this outing was a blessing in disguise and gave them a day where he can hang out with his friends doing what supposedly normal teenagers do on weekends

“. . .So where do you guys want to go?” Takemichi asks breaking the silence because it was clear that Hina and Emma had already ran off to do their own thing

“Hmmm theres an arcade around here if i remember right,” chifuyu says

“We could place bets!〜☆” Mikey proposed with eyes gleaming before a mischievous glint turned up on his eyes, “Loser can buy us all lunch!”

All four of them on board of the idea made their way into the arcade before deciding which game they should settle this bet on

From across the entrance Mikey could see your familiar figure donned with casual wear playing a shooting game with your friends not too far from the Punch Machine

Almost as if you could sense him you turned to have your eyes meet with his and a smile made its way up his face as he waved at you unashamed while you sent a small wave back before you continued on gaming with your friends

“What about you Mikey?” Takemichi asked the blonde male who was looking at the distance not paying attention to the conversation

“Mikey?” He called once more, it was like talking to a brick wall until he followed the male’s gaze who was staring over at you

Draken was growing impatient wih Mikey’s lack of response so he took matters into his own hands before pulling on mikeys hair with an “Oi Takemitchy just asked you a question”

A shocked Takemichi waved his hands furiously before telling draken that the act was unnecessary

“Ah, just wanted to ask your opinion on what game you wanted to do,”

“That one!” Mikey pointed at the punching machine without haste, “the one who sckres lowest on that machine loses!”

“Bet I’ll do better than you Ken-chin,” Mikey taunted

“Your fucking on pipsqueak”

He’d never let the opportunity pass to show off especially if it’s in front of you

"Not to be that guy," Chifuyu says, "I hope you have enough money on you Takemichi"

Bonus:

Takemichi lost horribly (though we sint surprised right?)

Mikey won with a kick but is sour that the gap between he and Draken's score was just by a mere 30

Still he looks over at you to see if you saw him win

Smug that you did see

Takemichi crying in the corner counting his money while Chifuyu pets him on the back

Hey guys asks and requests are officially open!

Also I might turn this into a crush series, whatdyall think?

Giann brainrot but hear me out

What if Giann was like really good at music? Maybe at playing an instrument (like the guitar, which Marius couldn’t bring himself to play because it reminded him of his mom) or singing or both idk.

Mama Von Hagen was very talented in both music and arts (this is canon), so what if each son took something from her??? Besides from Giann being (also canonly) more similar in personality to Ms Von Hagen while Marius is (in Austin’s words) “colder(!)” just as him

(Random long commentary because I listened to a nostalgic song and decided it was Von Hagen bros angst hour)

HELLO, I LOVE THISSSSS!!!! i need to know tho, where is that latter detail in canon about austin saying marius is colder omg, i havent seen it before and i Must know!

that aside tho, YESSSS, GIANN GOOD AT MUSIC. that is hugebrained idea, esp since canon doesnt really give us anything more on his character aside from "really great CEO during his term" and "marius loves him to BITS" and "protective shithead, i am always thinking about that flashback scene in SSR Will Of The Trees". so this hc adds nice flavor to the free real estate that is giann von hagen

i now like to think that giann deffo took up guitar. not as a “serious” venture but he just picked it up in his teens and got pretty good at it casually. and while hes no concert level vocalist, he sounds really great whenever he and marius went for a dumb karaoke hangout whereas marius just misses EVERY BEAT, GOES OFF EVERY KEY, it’s a genuinely fun time for both of em since karaoke isnt about sounding good, more just yelling into a microphone for the Vibes Of It All

another reason why i love this is cuz marius is shit at anything musical, canonically. twice now in current global cards (SR Overture, little scene in SSR In The Darkness) and here and there in official art (that one beach chibi? marius playing the guitar and the notes are viSIBLY SHAKY LMAOOOOOO), this dude cannot do anything musical

but he keeps trying anyway.

at first, i chalked it up to marius' tendency to dive headfirst into anything, even stuff he isnt good at, because effort and intention matters!! which i still think is true but i got another layer added when i remembered SR Twilight Beauty. theres this bit in there where marius is trying to understand his mom's musical compositions, trying to Truly Grasp how it felt like creating that music in the moment, trying to see how or what she was thinking when she had created her music

phrased a different way: marius does not understand music, but he tries to in order to understand someone who is no longer here

mama von hagen passed away shortly after marius’ birth, but i figure austin had told marius a bunch about her. her personality, what she loved to do, and maybe a hummed lullaby she’d always hum to put marius to sleep. marius cant remember melody of that lullaby coming from his mother herself, he was too young. so he just hums it himself based on how his dad told him it sounded like, going through the tune over and over again as a way to connect with someone he never got to truly meet.

art is a lot about communication, and marius, of all people, would know that. i feel like trying to understand a person’s art to understand the person themselves is an avenue he’d gravitate to. he didnt get to meet his mother, but he can try to connect with her through what she left behind.

but shes not the only one whos gone now too

so marius often has a bunch of songs stuck in his head, and theyre not songs hes personally into. theyre giann’s go-to songs back in their dumb karaoke hangouts. marius will idly find himself humming them while working or painting and he doesnt let himself forget these tunes or the melody of the lullaby from his mom. because even if he hums off tune and cant manage to do anything musical one bit, music is a language his mom and giann used.

for his mom, keeping her music in his mind is a calming way to stay connected to her even if he never got to meet her.

for giann, memories of his singing is something that grounds marius in reality so that he doesnt ever give up on finding giann and bringing him back.
