parrot's never really touchy with his friends, much less with strangers. so it doesn't come off as a surprise when he sometimes intentionally puts physical distance between himself and people, to create an invisible barrier where they won't be able to reach out and touch him
he doesn't know why he's like this nor does he bother to change. it doesn't affect him much and it's even useful sometimes
when he started going out and exploring with wifies, he treated him all the same. nothing changed, at least without his consciousness
wifies tends to wake up in the middle of the night and find parrot curled up below him, making himself smaller, as he shivers. his ear is always almost precisely pressed against wifies' heart. his hands pawing wifies' shirt tightly. his lashes damped with tears
the first time this happened, wifies stilled. he didn't know what to do, he knows parrot will kill him if he finds out whatever this is. worst case scenario, he'll set up his own tent and they'll never snuggle together ever again!...and yet, wifies held him, at least until the blizzard passes
it happens over and over and at some point, parrot wakes up in one of those nights. bleary eyed and spinning vision, he starts grumbling. he feels something shift against him. he feels warm and safe
"go back to sleep," he hears wifies mumble dozily, patting parrot's shoulder slowly with his hand that was previously resting there. the pats came steadily and gently and it was nothing like parrot has felt since a long, long time ago
parrot, stubbornly, argues in a small whisper, "let go of me."
wifies peeks open his eyes slightly, skimming over parrot, before sighing heavily. parrot feels the way his chest rises and falls—his own lungs following the rhythm for a second
"no," he states hoarsely, "don't be annoying. go to sleep, we have a long day tomorrow."
well, he can't argue with that. so parrot grumbles before closing his eyes and letting himself be lulled to sleep again. but they'll have to talk about this tomorrow, and he says so to wifies
in response, wifies only huffs, and parrot swears he hears him smiling when he hums in agreement
guys do we fw silly unrealistic workplace romance parfies 🥹🥹 long yap lets go guys
ceo!parrot x secretary!wifies.!!!
parrot owns the biggest company around, somehow. after countless sabotadges, betrayals, and a total of 5 hours of sleep/week, his company has grown and flourished under his rule. that isn't to say he himself grew and flourished
ceo parrot, witty, unrelenting, fiercely bold, and determined. one of a kind bird, with the clearest memory and the deadliest glare, commands the respect and loyalty of every one of his employees and partners. he's perfectly fine, thriving even
...and comes parrot, with heavy eyebags, wings that are only taken care of when he's going outside of the office (once a month, maybe twice if theres an emergency), borderline hallucinating, and unfortunately clumsy, is struggling with his personal life
after almost a decade in the office and plenty of nagging and begging from his friends, he finally hires a personal secretary. one that works for the office and outside. parrot sees no use, he's really alright alone but he'll let this secretary try, even if it's for naught
then, wifies enters the picture
at first, wifies was as flawless as parrot's image. the most competent person parrot has ever met even. parrot doesn't even realize how quickly he's grown to accept wifies' presence. however, he only lets wifies work at the office. parrot can deal with his outside of work problems on his own
until well, one or several accidents happen
one night, when parrot was too drunk to even talk properly and call a cab, wifies was there. wifies held him up and drove him home. the entire time, parrot's image fell apart. he was rambling on and on, fumbling with words, occasionally hitting his chair in frustration—a complete 180° from his usual self. wifies just smiles as he responds to each and every incomprehensible question
one morning, when parrot's body completely gave up on him, imprisoning him inside of his house with a near-death fever, wifies was there. he cooked him warm soup, changed the towel on parrot's head, held up parrot's glass for when he needed to chug down medicine, cradled parrot's hand for hours because of his nightmares
one evening, after wifies drives parrot home after a horrible and hard day, there were some small flaws seen in him that parrot notices. wifies was exhausted. parrot even more so. because of that, he suggests the next best (worst) solution. wifies should stay for the night
these accidents accumulate till, one day, wifies was just sort of... there. just everywhere. the guest room in parrot's house is often dubbed as "wifies' room". he cooks meals for parrot and himself. he sometimes does parrot's hair for him. he chooses the suit parrot wears for the day. he manages parrot's workload to a humane degree. he even drives them both home. wait. since when did wifies refer parrot's house as home?
the moment parrot realizes this, it was already too late. he was too far gone past the line of a professional relationship. now what? what if wifies decides to quit and leaves parrot? he trusts wifies with his life (literally) and got too comfortable. he needs to fix this, even if he just realized now
so parrot, albeit a little stupidly, decides to slowly push distance between the two of them
wifies instantly noticed—but he doesn't comment on it. he assumes this would be a short phase. till it keeps going on for a month
he's confused, and a little hurt. did he do something wrong? he was sure parrot was completely comfortable with him now, hell, he practically lives in parrot's house. he knows parrot like the back of his hand. he knows parrot favors him. so what in the world?
the confrontation happens dramatically, like it always does in these type of situations
it was somewhere past midnight and they both aren't clocking in tomorrow. they meet each other in the kitchen. they silently stare at eachother before parrot tries leaving in a hurry...but wifies catches his hand first
wifies apologizes. for what, he doesn't know. he just does. he tells parrot he wants to fix whatever happened, he says he regrets whatever he did that made parrot so distant. he just wants to take care of parrot again
parrot, thinking too loosely this late at night, cracks open and spills. he pushes wifies away, telling him nothing is wrong and that they're fine and he just needs time for himself. he doesn't even try to lie properly, he only wanted to escape
unluckily for him, wifies wasn't having that. he grabs parrot again, this time holding him close in a firm hug, and stubbornly buries his head in the crook of parrot's neck
it doesn't take long for parrot to reciprocrate it
it also doesn't take much longer for him to be honest
they both slept in eachother's arms that night, and the moment the sun rises, they laugh at each other before making breakfast together again–only this time, kisses aren't considered unprofessional
With how little content or no content we get out of odyssey duo and or parfies, besides the lil scraps wifies sometimes sometimes gives us by mentioning parrot, doing something wild like for example; the minecraft live mcc crafty awards segment showing the end of paragon, etc, and how rare it is of content of them together recently either streams or videos, and this by saying they aren’t friends—they are but that’s besides the point, so you think the fan content (fics, tumblr, twitter, youtube, etc posts) of odyssey duo and parfies (platonic and or romantic) will run out or die (and it did down significantly? Like there’s already barely anything parfies content on all platforms and odyssey duo content is doing significantly better like with fics and all but do you think fan content of them will die eventually because of how little we get of them? I mean that’s not to say we won’t have LOADS of content and streams of them together again because again they are friends and we are just in a “drought” for now and it’ll go up and down just like everything else- it’s normal, I guess I’m especially talking about uu fan content of odyssey and parfies because wifies isn’t in uu anymore and we kind of can’t get any more content of them from that because of that fact except lil info dumps wifies or parrot gives us and fun lil side fan projects like the “wifies’ last letter” and how I heard wifies is supposedly gonna voice it for his lines (I’m excited for that), anyways what do you think? Also I don’t think we as fans deserve content from parrot and wifies and they aren’t obligated to give us any content, either of their characters or content of their friendship, like tbh, parrot and wifies are the most offline content creators ever and I think that’s a good thing and that they can do whatever the hell they want, I guess I’m just saying all of this because I miss them and content with them together in it like stream and videos but also they can do whatever they want to I don’t care.
What do you think? Sorry if this is a weird thing to do/ask, I didn’t mean for it to be and also sorry if this is WAY too parasocial, I also didn’t mean to be.
hi!! thank u for the ask anon, no worries it's not weird or parasocial at all 😭😭 totally normal to wonder if fan content will stop or not because the main source isn't giving any new things to do with!!
personally, for the main duo tag, i don't think it'll completely die down. before and after parrot changed his boundaries, they've always been one of the most popular duos around and a huge chunk of people still include wifies in deurotagonist fanarts. plus, parrot dedicated an entire arc for the director and there's still new fanart of the reveal every so often 😭 they're really popular, so don't worry about running out of fan content anytime soon!!
but it's totally different for the parfies tag. mcyt fandoms are notoriously known for being obnoxious so when parrot set up his boundary, obviously it caused a rift within the fandom (bw & bb titles and whatnot) and people taking it way too seriously lol. im not someone who engages in fandom discourses so idrk, im on tumblr for a reason nobody gaf here 😭 but people who ship parfies are still there (me, everyone on parfies tumblr, literally any site) we're just a little hard to find!! while there's rarely ever new content around parfies itself, it's still a huge ship. just really hidden haha
i do agree, they aren't obligated to give fans content and they can do whatever they want. and i do have the opinion that it also applies to fans; i don't take shipping seriously, it's something i do for fun and i don't force anyone to like it (tagging, blocking is a thing guys!) and also, u really can't expect people not to ship, especially when the entire arc has some questionably romantic undertones bro so really, do whatever u want but if yk it'll bother some people then tag it properly. we're in a dire lack of fandom etiquette
can we know your top 5 (in no particular order) parfies fics maybe… 🤔🤔 or top ten idk whichever one people use the most I think top 5 is a good number
ANON. THANK U FOR THIS. unfortunately im rather picky with my favorites so i'll only be able to give my top 3 purely because only these three orbit around my brain alternatively everyday 🥹
kalapastangan by nox (qekyo) ; absolutely stunning. lives in my head rent free. internally, my knees drop from anguish everytime i remember a certain dialogue from this fic holy shit this fic has me on a chokehold bro
sinner by ialmosthadhim NSFW DD:DNE ; im sorry this was everything i liked in one fanfic im so sorry i just need to be freaked out sometimes or i'll genuinely explode from frustration😭😭
preen your wings by anonymous NSFW ; this was so good bro 🤤🤤 freaked out asl im not really sorry for this one #speakingmytruth
if u have any recs for me, please lmk!! i rarely ever open the parfies tag due to the fact there's barely any new stories there 😢😢 but it's always a nice surprise whenever a new story comes out!!!! im mainly looking for ones that arent nsfw because honestly i crave stories that dont just revolve around sex.!! character studies and aus are my favs always 🙂↕️ THANK U FOR THE ASK ANON :3
the lack of tropey parfies content needs to be fixed!!!!! throw away all angst!!!! this world is already sad enough!!!!i need childhood friends to lovers parfies!!!! i need fluffslop coffeeshop au parfies!!!!! i need silly and light hearted workplace romance parfies!!!!!!!! i need parfies to be happy for once!!!please!!!!!!!!!!
wifies harvard student™️ having his head spin around math equations and theories and so on and so forth that he tends to accidentally isolate himself for periods of time to study
parrot, conveniently having a copy of wifies' apartment key, tends to crash and sleep in the same room as wifies. just so his best friend doesn't forget what humans are
after wifies finishes all of his homework, deadlines, and todos, he feels like he's aged by two decades. but when he turns around and sees parrot comfortably asleep, wings carelessly open, hair flopped over his face, him blending in so well in wifies' home; wifies finds it hard to complain about the amount of workload he gets if this is what he sees everytime he finishes studying
idol x fan parfies but in both povs because zombst is actually turning my brain into mushrooms
LONG YAP!!! BEWARE!!!!!!
idol!parrot being loved for his down to earth and genuine personality, his appearance loved by the masses with his gorgeous wings and lovely eyes, and how he's always ranked number 1 in the most hardworking idol category
however, parrot is dating wifies, his childhood friend who he lost contact before finding him in a fansign event. it felt extremely wrong for him to date wifies but he really did love him, though the idol industry simply demands too much from him and he sometimes isn't what most people would define a good lover is
the press latch onto the most inane and far fetched rumors that parrot sometimes fumbles when answering. one time, a reporter asks him about a rumor that he's dating someone
parrot's heartrate skyrocketed but he simply laughs and says that he obviously isn't, how could he do that? that'd be so selfish of him, wouldn't it? besides, he doesn't even have time for anything than being an idol
later that night, he comes back home to see wifies on the couch, watching the clip. parrot stands by the doorway. wifies doesn't look at him
they don't talk for the remainder of the day
but really, wifies doesn't mind. wifies loves parrot the way he is. wifies can wait; parrot won't be an idol forever, and wifies will be there–he'll always be there for parrot
it's just maybe...he wants parrot to ask for it himself one of these days
OR
idol!wifies is the industry's it boy. flawless, perfect, charming wifies. nobody not knows him and even a sliver of attention from him is equivalent to winning the golden ticket for billions of dollars
but despite all this, wifies finds himself slumped. it's getting too repetitive and he finds no joy in performances no matter how well they go. at the end of the day, being an idol is a job like all the others in the world
he was so close to retiring, not because he was fading, but because he really just can't keep himself entertained any longer...till he meets parrot
sweet, beautiful parrot who somehow doesn't know who he is. lovely and kind parrot who only came to his meet and greet in place of his friend who couldn't make it. perfect parrot who doesn't bother to search wifies up
wifies is completely and utterly entranced—by the time they see each other for the third time, in yet another meet and greet parrot's friend couldn't go to, wifies has already memorized everything
the groups of colors in parrot's hair, his saturated wings with slightly off centered feathers, the way he smiles awkwardly, the small bits of information he gives to wifies because of the mandatory small talk they need to have
after the third time they meet, parrot starts to recognize wifies everywhere. his songs playing in every store, his face plastered on the billboards, his name being spoken by every passing stranger
parrot doesn't think much of it, only bewildered that he met such a huge celebrity three times because of his unlucky friend
till he sees wifies in real life. in his grocery store, in his local park, in the small cafe he always goes to. and each time, they would always talk again because wifies was the one who always striked up the conversation. they sort of become buddies, somehow
parrot keeps it a secret, his friend would freak out if they find out after all
but on the other side, wifies knows it'll take a while till parrot is his. but wifies is a patient man
avians remember terrifyingly well and parrot's bird brain is a prison of itself
...so in the scenario where he hugged wifies once... his wings would wrap around wifies' body and he remembers his warmth and surprise and laughter and now in the current timeline, whenever he feels lonely, his wings would instinctively mimic the very same sensation he felt back then
but there was nobody around, and no sensations or false warmth his body mimics will ever make him feel like wifies did
hanahaki parfies because there's something agonizing about having parrot see a wifies shaped lump in the snow drenched in blood and dandelions and that only makes parrot spiral even more. because where's wifies? and the director is on him, and is this wifies?
or when they're at the end of paragon and the director isn't supposed to have hanahaki but the moment they're in the chamber and he sees tears well up in parrot's eyes, he can feel the roots tightening his throat and the petals making their way out of his ears
when he held the spyglass, he was already long gone. not because of the explosion, partly because parrot had left him, and mostly because he accepted it. he accepted the fact he'd love parrot, no matter how many fixes and replacements he goes through, his heart transfixes on the same person
guys do we fw s1 parfies where they do everything for the first time together?!!???😢😢
hello? first kisses, first time parrot getting his wings preened by someone else, first time wifies falls in love, first time parrot grows a habit of falling asleep in wifies' arms, first time wifies finds himself eating actual food willingly for parrot (cz he really just needs oil), first time going on dates, first time having sex, first time laughing so hard over a shared inside joke they both keel over, first time drowning and landing on a random shore together, literally everything
absolutely adore the hc that wifies "haunts" parrot after he dies. like, he protects parrot even in death (though this time, he won't and can't trap parrot). he shoos away people that bother him by scaring and creeping them out with something supernatural (?)
or if parrot accidentally left something behind and panicked the moment he realized, he'd check his bag and realize it was already there (wifies placed it there)
parrot sometimes get shivers, goosebumps even. he feels like he's being watched but whenever he looks behind, it's just theo and reina bickering like always but they're not watching him. the feeling he gets from the attention feels familiar but he can't put his finger on it
during those times when wifies would almost get caught, he would intentionally float further away so parrot won't realize
wifies is considered a world reknowned skater, has been in the industry for a long looong time. his style would be graceful in a way that it's sharp and completely hypnotizing. he enters a room and everyone instantly turns to him.
parrot is a rising skater, sort of an underdog. he only went viral after pulling off an incredible stunt in a fairly major competition that the media deemed a "miracle" and thus the public caught onto him like moths to a flame.
wifies saw the stunt online one day.
one day, parrot realizes the boy everyone's drooling over has been appearing more often than not in competitions way under his league, more specifically, the level parrot is on—as a special guest appearance or something. he didn't even know that was possible?
but each time parrot sees wifies on the ice, he's as mesmerized as everyone else. and sometimes, he can't help but feel like wifies' eyes go to him. though honestly, parrot must be wrong. why would he be looking at him anyways? barely anyone knows him.
wifies skates for an entirely new purpose now; he needs parrot to be on the same ice as him. no matter what. and first, he needs to make his pretty bird realize that he's someone worth wifies' attention.
