HEN'S BROCNIGHT THESIS (yes this is about broca x midnight arknights)

i keep thinking about brocnight even while doing other stuff so i guess this is the promised Explanation FAQ Post i said i would make. longish post so theres a readmore which everything is under

im not used to really doing stuff like this but... i cant be the only one to suffer so

The Big Question Nobody Is Asking: Hen, why do you ship Brocnight?

same reasons that people ship or yumeship, i like it, it fulfils me, they look good together, makes my dick hard etc

for me its the added thing of "these two characters were in my top 5 before i finally had a brainwave and decided to just start shipping them because like. whos gonna stop me. i already have a penchant for characters that are less popular so who cares anymore be cringe... be free

General ship notes

theyre reversible to me but midnight is definitely more dominant (not at all because i like huge dudes that are also cute submissive discord kittens. gap moe)

midnight is touchy and broca is avoidant i think thats so funny. i think thats hilarious. broca gets used to it after a while of course and since now midnight is "tied down" hes less annoying towards the women which orchid is very thankful about, although she still finds herself getting pissed off by him anyway (deepcolor makes doujinshi of them or something)

i do hc that the terrans of animal variety have hidden animal features so broca has a stronger sense of smell than midnight does. he likes how midnight smells a lot (besides his cologne which he also likes but less)

in tomolife brocnight got married and had a kid (Popukar) so i think popukar would love training with broca (and broca is both scared and impressed by this tiny girl)

broca is protective over midnight bc he is physically stronger (both in game and like. just look at him) and i also think the hc that midnight is implied to be (somewhat) physically disabled is interesting bc of the way he doesnt really put weight on his left leg and how he uses his sword as a cane in his art/chibi

i think broca is also sort of possessive once he finally warms up to midnight... doesnt really like that midnight flirts with people casually bc thats just the kind of person he is (bar his former job) also perhaps because of being left behind by his former famiglia so he clings on to any relationships he has (including the ones with his gang) while also rejecting or being hesitant about creating new ones. its a little ooc but im trying my hardest here

midnight is older and broca is younger (not by much). the tv tropes article for ak characters changed me... midnight no longer a twink but now a delicious older man 🤤

Additional reasons I think Midnight and Broca look good together

Guard x Guard

Smiler x Frowner (similarly, Optimist x Pessimist/Realist)

Broca's base skill is related to Guard skill specialisation, so they can hang out in the training room together (bar the fact that as a 3 star, Midnight can't E2 and thus can't specialise his skill 💔💔💔)

pink and yellow's a good colour combo

both of them have bangs over one eye, and the covered eye is like. flipped on either of them if that makes sense (midnight has his right eye covered while broca has his left eye covered)

they are ALMOST the same height. midnight is shorter by 2cm so the height difference is basically zero and i think a couple with zero height difference is hilarious

tigers are nocturnal and vampires are commonly associated with the night, so they can stay up late together <3

don't think that there's anything else i can add without seeming pedantic... either way i want to develop the relationship more outside of Yaoi of course (my brain does love some Yaoi though)

I just got Asbestos’s new module and oh my god the things they do with this woman continue to get funnier and more fascinating every time she gets more writing

[fishing-princess]

To my young reader:

Hello, my young friend. I've seen the photograph you sent me, and read the letter attached to it. Luckily for you, your letter arrived during my return to Rim Billiton to write my next draft. But I am sorry to inform you that Asbestos vs. Two-headed Gloompincer is not one of my works. I did not write it. You profess your love for Asbestos Tears Apart the Mutant Mangler, but that was not written by me either. Those are unauthorized knock-offs.

As for Asbestos Charges into the Cave of Death and Asbestos Conquers the Waterfall of Blood... Yes, my editor says those two were actually mine. I'm sure my publisher has their reasons for choosing those sorts of names. I suppose otherwise I probably wouldn't have received your letter. Also, that sales tactic of 'buy the book for a complimentary miniature'... When my editor told me my books were incredibly popular among children, I was very confused, but now I understand.

After receiving your letter, I went out to buy some of the Asbestos series, including the unauthorized volumes, and I noticed that, whether genuine or not, the free item was always a miniature. Did you make the board and other items in your photo yourself? You're amazing, reading my books as seriously as you have. As for your questions...

Your first question about the color of Sami's Borea, that is, the aurora. While I've only seen and written about a green one, there are other colors such as red, violet, and blue. Your friend is right.

As for your second question, Sargonians really do use their tails for angling. According to them, there is even a species of sawtooth fin that has a special love for thin Archosauria tails, so only those blessed with such tails can catch them. You are right.

On the topic of your third question, whether the two-headed gloompincer or the mutant mangler would win in battle, I don't know about this. First of all, I have never seen either of them. Secondly, the two of them don't even appear in the same unauthorized book.

Which means you and your friend are equally matched. As for whether you two make up or not, that's none of my business. That's something you'll have to do yourself. Also, there's no need to force him to 'seriously read the great hero Asbestos's books'. He'll read them if he's interested. I only wrote about my travels to record my experiences, impressions, and the sights I've seen. If you love them that much, I suggest you go see them for yourself. Who knows, maybe we'll run into each other. Maybe you'll be able to see even more than I have.

Finally, I have included with my reply the Asbestos and Two-headed Gloompincer miniatures I got for free with those unauthorized volumes, which you can share with your friend. If you really want to make up with him, it'd probably be better to play with him than try to prove that you're right. Hope you enjoy your time with him.

Ah, yes, there's no use replying to this letter, since I'm setting off to Columbia tomorrow. I won't be able to receive it.

With To The Grinning Valley and Leto’s oprec* we learned that Asbestos:

Is popular with single mothers

Is a cryptid hunter

Has a collection of photos of dead animals she encountered on her explorations

And now with her module we learned that:

When publishing her journal entries from her adventures, her publishers give them ridiculous titles like “Asbestos Charges into the Cave of Death”

Her works became really popular with kids, who see to think she’s a fictional character

Her works became so popular that either her publishers started writing original Asbestos stories to cash in on the craze or, even funnier, there are people making bootleg Asbestos adventure stories

Her stories come with Asbestos miniatures that her young readers collect

And the most surprising of all:

Asbestos, the toxic slimy abrasive cunt who doesn’t like being around people, says she doesn’t need friends, and curses like a sailor, can actually be really nice when it comes to dealing with kids

It’s becoming a bit more clear why single moms like her…

Eblana assistant dialogue: "I know you deeply desire it, Erudite. You want to do a kickflip. Why not do it, that kickflip? It'll be freeing. I want to know, to see, the kickflip only you can do. Is it a good kickflip? A horrid kickflip? That matters not. It's your kickflip. I did a kickflip once, you know, Erudite? Oh, I did. Beyond the boundaries of life and death, those meaningless things, the kickflip was my north. And you know what happened after my kickflip? I was reborn -- figuratively, the literal rebirth happened later -- and I want to see exactly what kind of spectacular moth emerges from this hooded cocoon. And, in the end, even if you beef it or land it flawlessly, meaningless artifacts only accessory to the act of the kickflip itself, I will be there."

Doctor, 4:45 AM:

[cerastes]

Amiya, fidgeting with her cuff, fixing the hairs on her ears, pacing on place:

Loughshinny: "Miss Amiya, are you perhaps wondering if this is... A s--

Amiya: "Is this a sex thing?"

Loughshinny: "--ex thing, right, that is a fair inquiry."

Amiya:

Loughshinny:

Amiya: "...Well?"

Loughshinny: "...It would be much easier to explain and comprehend if that were the case. Yesterday she was like this about the Scholar's Mate while playing Chess with Doctor. Today, it's about kickflips on a skateboard. Tomorrow, it would not surprise me if it was competitive beatboxing."

Amiya: "And does she need to sprawl herself all over Doctor's desk and or lap while staring with the eyes of a Minoan fertility goddess all the while?"

Loughshinny: "She very much does not know any other form of interaction. Harmonie had a full on awakening due to this, and it was all because Eblana wanted to fly a kite that day. Harmonie thought the experience was indistinguishable from high impact raw coitus."

Amiya: "You've had it rough, haven't you... Wait, beatboxing?"

Loughshinny: "She can Amen Break perfectly."

Amiya: "Ok."
