you know that thing that some parents do for their kids to make them sleepy, gently brushing a finger down the bridge of their nose? (as we saw in frozen 2)

Laios totally did that for Falin (still does sometimes (and vise versa)) and would do it for his lover too

OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS SO CUTE!! I feel that the first time Falin would experience a rough nightmare that prevented her from sleeping, Laios would be there finding ways to comfort her before eventually finding out by just gently brushing the bridge of her nose with his finger, she’d fall asleep soon after. Since then, he’d repeat the same motion every time Falin struggled to fall asleep or woke up from a nightmare.

And when he’s in a relationship, he’d definitely do the same if the reader struggles with insomnia or frequent nightmares. The action is hypnotizing and comforting in its own way, and though Laios finds it hard to understand, he’s just happy he’s able to help you and his sister get proper sleep. :))

[kotoku]

you know how Laios believes that if he had gotten eaten instead of Falin, his friends wouldn’t have gone back to save him?

imagine him privately talking to the reader about this before he nearly falls backwards as they throw their arms around his shoulders and hold him close like their life depends on it.

“I’d come back for you, without question.”

Laios almost misses the sound of them choking back their own tears, as if the thought of losing him alone is already breaking their heart.

Godddd this is so good but also heart wrenching. I feel that Laios wouldn’t share the internal struggles he faces with his party, even though they’re close, just because he’s somewhat(?) aware of how much stress everyone is going through (with the whole Falin situation).

So when he feels comfortable enough with the reader to blurt out his true feelings and the mental battles he’s been facing, I can imagine the reader being so stunned but hurt by how little Laios thinks of himself.

And like you said when it comes to a situation where Laios falls back or almost gets hurt (or even near death experiences), the reader just holds him so tightly yet warmly because they can’t imagine losing someone so important. They’ve already lost Falin and are trying to get her back, but losing Laios? God, I can’t even begin to think how the reader and remaining party members would function.

Despite Laios thinking so little of himself that his party wouldn’t go back to save him, I believe that both the reader and the rest of his party would look for him. Because as hard as it is for some members to admit (ahem Chilchuck ahem), Laios is like a glue that holds them all together. It would be hard to function without a party leader as knowledgeable and determined as Laios.

So when Laios feels the genuine pain yet empathy/sincerity in the reader’s embrace, best believe he’ll do his damn best to keep— not only himself— but everyone safe as they look for Falin.

[kotoku]

I feel like Laios has a breeding kink but at the same time doesn’t actually want to be a father

does that make sense?

Yess I get what you mean! I feel that Laios would be much too nervous/scared to become a father, wanting to wait for a proper time and all. He understands the responsibility that comes with the role and as much as he wants to have kids with you— if he does— he just doesn’t feel ready yet.

However, with that being said, it doesn’t change the fact I think Laios’ favorite position would be the Mating Press. He gets to see you, smell you, feel you. Eventually, he’s bound to lose himself in you and act without much thought— he’s completely lost in the way you squeeze around him, the tears that dot your lashes, and the smell of sweat and you flooding his senses.

Part of me also feels that he’d somewhat enjoy the thrill of it. The anticipation and excitement buzzing as he takes care of you afterwards… Yeahh.

Anywho, definitely know what you mean. :))

[kotoku]

y/n: (doodling in their own journal)

laios: (peeps over their shoulder) is that your monster-sona?

y/n: uh..

laios: that’s so cool! wanna see mine?

y/n: :0 :D

marcille: oh no… there’s two of them.

Marcille and Chilchuck would be absolutely MORTIFIED if they had another Laios on their hands… Double the trouble I say.

At the same time, I think Laios would be very happy to have someone who has similar interests and evens draws the creatures they come across. I also feel that Laios would point out the small details in the reader’s drawings, either correcting or praising them for noticing! (The same applies to the monster-sona the reader is creating haha)

Also, imagine how Kabru feels if he has to put up with not only one Laios, but another one. He’ll be doing mental gymnastics trying to dissect these two brains.

Spoiler!!

Imagine instead of Laios being taken over by the Demon Lord it’s the reader, and they instead turn into their monster-sona lol. Laios would trip out honestly.

note - it's been a while but i'm backk!! hoping to write more for this series, sorry for the long wait. :)

⋆˚🐾˖°

Throughout the past week, Sunday had become much more comfortable in his new home. You’d spend at least a good hour or so each day trying to train him to step onto your finger, often resulting in him pecking at your index or staring down at it… You were slowly getting there! 

“Can you step up? I have a millet waiting for you.” You coaxed, millet in hand. Sunday, on the other hand, only stared at you in what you could imagine as boredom. He was done with your shit, wasn’t he?

With a sigh, you retracted your hand. Sunday resumed preening his feathers atop his cage, fluffs of feathers popping off and landing on your clothes. 

“Well, we’ll get there someday. Right, Sunny?” You watched as he preened his feathers, directing his focus back onto you after he was satisfied. He cooed at you in response.

With a smile, you raised the millet towards him. “Even though you didn’t step on my finger today, you deserve the millet for the effort.” 

Sunday’s head turned to look at the treat, eyes slowly blinking. Before you could react, Sunday hopped onto your finger, nibbling away at the millet. 

“Wah— careful!” You yelped, stabilizing your hand after the sudden addition of weight. You weren’t expecting him to hop onto your finger so unexpectedly! Was this the unlocked power of the millet?

You stared at him, eyes unblinking as he continued to snack away on the millet. 

“Well, we have finally done it! We’re getting somewhere, Sunday!” You cheered, letting him hop off your hand as you threw away the barred millet. 

“I'll cut up some of your favorite fruits and veggies as a celebratory snack!” 

𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃

You woke up the next morning with a headache, did work really stress you out that badly? With a grunt, you slipped out of bed and sluggishly walked towards your bathroom.

You searched the medicine cabinet for Ibuprofen, taking one tablet with some tap water from the sink. You should eat breakfast soon.

After doing your morning routine, you walked out into the hallway to go check on Sunday. 

“Good morning Sunny! I hope you had a nice res—“ With a startled gasp, you dropped the blanket that once covered his cage. “Wha- what happened!? Sunday, are you okay?!”

Kneeling to the cage’s level, you opened the door, gently picking up the small dove. Sunday was laying at the bottom of his cage, eyes closed as his feathers remained puffed up. Was he sick!? 

You quickly pulled out your phone, dialing the nearest vet clinic. You cradled Sunday close to you, being mindful of his current state. After a couple of rings, you heard the phone get picked up.

“Hello this is the Honkai Vet Clinic, how can I assist you?”

“Hi, yes- my pet bird was found—“ You listed Sunday’s current state, his diet, his activities, etc.. anything that the receptionist needed. You peered down at Sunday as he rested in your arms, the steady rise and fall of his feathers providing you comfort as you conversed with the receptionist. 

“Alright, I have an opening for 9 AM today. Is that fine?” The clicking of computer keys accompanied by the sound of a printer brought you back to the call, eyes glancing at the clock on the wall. It was 8:42 AM. 

“Yes, that’s fine.”

“Great, see you soon, Mx. _____.”

With the call ending, you carefully got up to place Sunday in a carrier. You made sure to lay down some towels beforehand so that he would be comfortable.

Packing some of his food and water, you placed them in a bag with your phone and wallet, grabbing the car keys as you slipped on some footwear. You placed Sunday securely on the seat, ensuring his carrier wouldn’t topple over. 

“You’ll be okay, Sunday. We’ll be at the vet soon enough.” 

𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃

“We ran some tests and fortunately, his vitals came back normal. There’s nothing to worry about, Mx. _____. I think Sunday here is just a drama king.” The vet spoke, clipboard in hand as she handed over Sunday’s papers. You flipped through the pages, scanning the information with a breath of relief. 

Looking down at Sunday who’s carrier was in your lap, you saw him peeking up at you with his beady eyes. He’s much better and livelier than earlier, you sighed, maybe he really was just being dramatic. 

“Thank you, Doctor.”

“Not a problem, Mx. _____.”

Pushing the doors open with Sunday’s carrier in hand, you couldn’t help but clutch your chest in relief.

“Thank Aeons, I almost had a heart attack.” You cried, opening the car door and setting Sunday down inside. You circled around the car to the driver’s side, buckling your seatbelt and starting up the car. 

“Let’s get you back home, Sunday.” 

The morning sun filtered through the blinds, casting its light against your slumbering form. Aventurine, who had slowly revealed his cunning and mischievous nature, slept peacefully beside you, swaddled in the comforter of your bed. 

He stretched his arms and legs out, yawning while doing so as he cracked open his eyes to look around the room. Aventurine had felt you stir in your sleep, so deciding to engage in his troublesome acts, he climbed atop your side and sank his claws into the fabric of your shirt, kneading your skin. This action thus propelled you awake, almost flinging the poor cat to the other side of the room.

“Aventurine! That hurt!” You cried, rubbing the side he was kneading. Lifting up your shirt, you saw some scratch marks that began to redden in color on your skin. “You little—! Don’t make me banish you from my room!” 

Your scolding fell on deaf ears, however, as Aventurine started to lick his fur. This cat… 

With a grunt, you throw off the blankets that were tempting you with its comfortable embrace, heading towards the bathroom. Aventurine followed after you, cutting between your legs before you could even stop him from entering. 

“I need to use the bathroom, Sir.” You placed your hands on your hips with a huff as he sat atop the toilet cover, preventing you from using it. “I would very much appreciate it if you could, out of the kindness of your heart, wait outside so I can shit in peace.”

Aventurine only continued to stare at you with his doe eyes, refusing to hop off. You rolled your eyes.

“Fine, you asked for it.” You quickly picked him up before he could dodge you, carrying him out of the bathroom and plopping him onto the ground. Quickly shutting the door, you let out a sigh of relief.

“Mrowww…” Muffled cries came from the other side of the door as your pain-in-the-ass cat pawed at the wood. 

“No, you can’t come in. I need to get ready for work, Aven!” 

As you can probably tell, Aventurine’s ‘shy’ personality was all just a facade! It only took a day for him to unleash his chaos onto your home (and you). The sweet cat you once thought was going to be shy was actually a smug troublemaker, just like what the old lady warned you about! You should’ve taken her words into consideration, you sighed internally.

After going about your business, you nudged open the door just in case Aventurine was sitting in front of it. Expectedly, he was. 

“Mroww!” 

“I’ll have to leave for work soon, but I’ll spend some time with you beforehand, okay?” You gave him a couple pats on the head, moving past him to head towards the kitchen. 

You had moved his food bowl near the dining table since Aventurine seemed to always cling to you. He took a seat at his food bowl with an expectant look. You took the memo and refilled his food before getting started on breakfast. 

You had a long day ahead…

𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃

Fumbling with your keys, you unlocked the front door to your house, stumbling inside as Aventurine greeted you with a meow.

“Hey buddy..sorry I’m back so late.” You groaned, kicking off your shoes and setting your bag aside. Aventurine rubbed past your legs, looking up at you with a look that says, ‘Finally! I’ve been waiting for you all day, human.’. Chuckling, you bent down to pet him, finding comfort in stroking his back. 

“Work was such a pain..nothing but paperwork and sitting in a cubicle for 8 hours.” You sighed, letting your shoulders fall back as you stood up, dragging yourself to your bathroom to take a relaxing bath. Aventurine trotted after you, tail straight up in the air as he meowed persistently at you. Was he trying to tell you something?

“Hm? What’s gotten into you?” “Mraowww!!” 

You gave Aventurine a worried look, scanning over him for any injuries. “I left you some food while I was gone, did something happen?” 

“Mrow.”

“...Okay, are you just trying to get my attention?”

“...Mrow.”

“Hm.”

You breathed a laugh at his response, he was so human-like sometimes.  

“I’m going to go shower now, it won’t be too long. Wait here, okay?” Shutting the bathroom door with a click, Aventurine sat outside, staring up at the handle. 

It was unusual for him to be this clingy, did something happen while you were gone?

“Bad.”

“Veritas, I’m literally eating cereal–”

“Bad.”

“Don’t judge me for my life decisions! This is all we had–”

“Bad.”

You sighed in defeat, continuing to eat your cereal as Veritas, your pet bird for 1 week, paced around the dining table, eyeing the cereal you were eating. When you weren’t working or doing something ‘productive’, Veritas would repeat the word ‘bad’ until you either ignored him or did whatever he was hinting at.

For a bird, he sure acted a lot like a human. You were sure he’d be a professor if he was one anyways given his intellect. He reminded you of your parents whenever they’d scold you…

But besides that, it was your day off! How dare you let a little bird such as Veritas Ratio police you around! 

“Bad.”

“I’m not gonna let you boss me around on my day off! I am your giver of fruits and veggies so you will let me do as I please.” You huffed, shoving the spoonful of cereal in your mouth. Ratio gave you a side eye, letting you know he was heavily criticizing your diet. 

“You know, you remind me of my parents, always telling me what to do or what not to do–” another spoonful, “--I can’t imagine if you were a human. That’d be a nightmare.” Finishing the last of your cereal, you scooted your chair back, taking your dishes to the sink. 

“Thank goodness you’re just a cute little- gah!” As you said that, Ratio flew over to your shoulder, wings flapping against your head as he squawked at you. “Okay okay! I’m sorry!” You cried, brushing your hair away from your face so you weren’t blind. He stopped his squawking, opting to silently mumble words next to your ear instead. Rolling your eyes, you turned on the tap water, squeezing some soap onto a sponge.

“...”

“Did you just shit on my shoulder, Veritas?”

“...No.” 

𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃

For the rest of the day, Veritas just sat on his perch near the living room window, gazing at the greenery of your neighborhood. He was awfully silent compared to earlier, was something bothering him? 

You were seated on the living room couch watching a movie, so Veritas was always in your peripheral vision. Every now and then you’d turn your head to watch him as he would pace back and forth, bobbing his head up and down every now and then. His behavior was a little odd, but you figured he was just enamored with the scenery outside. 

Turning your gaze back to the TV, you rewinded the movie back to where you last paid attention to.

𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃

Night had finally come, the darkened skies only lit by the moon and stars. With the bedside table lamp on, you flipped through some pages of the book you were reading. You had already put Veritas to bed, so you were only winding down by catching up on a book you’ve never touched in a month. 

That was until you heard a commotion coming from the guest bedroom. Veritas’s bedroom. 

Scrambling from your bed, you abandoned your book and hurriedly ran to his room, flipping the light switch on so both of you could see. The commotion ceased.

“Ratio? Ratio! Are you okay?” Slowly pulling off the covers on his cage, you saw him staring back at you with his chest heaving rapidly. Did something startle him? You hadn’t heard any fireworks or loud noises so what could’ve caused him to become scared? 

You opened the cage door, Ratio hopping onto your finger as soon as you offered it to him. 

“What happened, Veri?” You softly asked, lightly petting his head. His breathing slowed down a bit as he stayed puffed up on your finger. Poor guy…

After some time had passed and everything had settled down, you let him retreat for the night, placing the covers back over his cage. You plugged in a dim night light that illuminated the bottom half of the cage. 

“Just in case he needs to see.” You muttered, standing up from your kneeling position. Turning off the bedroom light, you retreated back to your room.

“Goodnight, Veritas.” 

You hoped nothing would occur the next morning.

“Boothill no!” 

For the past 30 minutes, you had been chasing Boothill around your house. Currently, he was on the other side of your coffee table with one of your shoes in his mouth, staring at you with a certain gleam in his eyes. You, on the other hand, were in a crab pose, shimmying from side to side as you tried predicting your pet’s movements. 

“Come..on..!” You hopped towards your right, but before you could dash at Boothill, he made a run for the hallway. “Agh no!”

Hurrying after him, you looked around the different rooms, shutting the doors when you saw no sight of him. After confirming he wasn’t in the second to last room on the right, you slowly stalked towards the final door on your left— your bedroom. 

Quietly peeking inside, your eyes narrowed as you scanned the room from left to right, top to bottom. You stepped inside, closing the door behind you with a ‘click!’. 

“Boothill… I have some treats I can trade for my shoe…” You called out, walking towards your bed. It wasn’t a complete lie; you did have some treats for him but he’d have to give you back your shoe if he wanted to get any. 

You heard shuffling from beneath you, seemingly coming from under the bed. Sighing, you slowly bent down to look underneath it. Unsurprisingly, Boothill was there lying beneath your bed with your shoe tucked between his front paws. He gave a loud huff, resting his head on your drool-covered shoe.

“Come on, buddy. I’ll give you a treat— 2 treats!” You begged, literally on your knees as he only stared at you.

There was a tense silence before Boothill made a noise akin to a whine, taking the shoe into his mouth before worming his way out from beneath your bed. 

Standing back up, you stretched out your back with a relieved sigh, thanking the Aeons that this 30 minute game of chase has ended. Boothill plopped the shoe in front of you, sitting as he peered up at you. 

“What’s gotten into you, huh buddy?” You hum, scratching behind his ears as you bend to put back your shoe. Boothill trotted behind you, stopping to paw at your legs as he gave you an indiscernible look. 

“Hm? Looking to spend time with me?” Smiling, you plopped back down onto your couch, patting the empty seat beside you. “C’mere, I’ll put on a movie.” 

Boothill’s ears seemed to perk up at the opportunity of spending time with you (and possibly free snacks) so he hopped up onto the cushion and laid down, head resting on his paws. Internally, you cooed at the sight, wrapping a blanket around your shoulders while using the remote to sort through movies. 

Although his behavior seemed a bit off, you figured Boothill was having a rough day,

the touden party with a teen! reader

content - family dynamic / found family / nothing but platonic fluff! / a sprinkle of angst?

pairings - laios touden & reader / chilchuck tims & reader / marcille donato & reader / senshi & reader / izutsumi & reader

warnings - none!

disclaimer - some short headcanons just to get back into the swing of things :)

word count - 1k

✤✤✤✤

✢ Laios would honestly adopt you as his little sibling, treating you akin to Falin (protecting you, rambling to you, doting on you…)

✢ After the party loses Falin, he’d grow very protective of you– not wanting to lose you like his sister

✢ Laios can be a bit dense when it comes to the wonders of puberty/adolescence (it’s been a bit), so he just needs a little time to understand and find a way to support you

✢ I feel that Laios would start to become so protective of you that you might get into a small argument, he’s just worried though! (how could he not?)

✢ However, after watching you fight tooth and nail in the dungeon and talking with him (courtesy of Senshi, Marcille, and Chilchuck bringing you two togther), he’d let up and not worry as much

✢ Laios would ramble about monster facts, formulate new potential recipes, and complain about Marcille’s teachings to you

✢ You’d also help Laios with understanding people better, or at the very least, reading the room (nudging him into the right approach when needed)

✢ All in all, a very supportive relationship!

✤✤✤✤

✢ Great, another brat for him to take care of sigh 

✢ Regardless, Chilchuck still watches over you from afar, even if he doesn’t want to admit it

✢ He deosn’t want to show his worry or concern for your wellbeing, so if you do something risky or dangerous, half of him wants to help and scold you while the other half stays quiet with restrained fear (even if you’re twice his size)

✢ At some point, this facade cracks and he ends up dumping all of his feelings into the open– about how he thinks you should leave the party and find yourself a stable job uptop, ect…

✢ Chilchuck, just as he is with his daughters, takes care of you in his own ways 

✢ He’s almost like a stern father, lecturing you about safety and interpersonal relationships within a party

✢ You just roll your eyes and go along with, knowing he means well and wants the best for you

✢ I feel that he’d be protective but not as protective as Laios and Marcille, he knows when to give you space

✢ Although Chilchuck rarely says it, he does care about you very much and there is a gnawing fear that you’ll be heavily injured (or killed) while venturing with them into the dungeon 

✤✤✤✤

✢ Ahh Marcille.. where to begin?

✢ She’d take care of you as if you’re her sibling– gushing and fretting over you

✢ Like she does to Izutsumi, she’d help brush and style your hair, find new clothes that are a perfect match to you, and make sure you’re properly cared for

✢ Like Laios, she’d be super worried about you while venturing into the dungeon

✢ She has her healing magic/spells ready in case you get injured or bruised

✢ With you being a tall-man, Marcille can’t help but feel sad (and the creeping existential crisis) as she watches you grow throughout the journey

✢ However, sometimes it feels as if Marcille is the youngest of the two of you here, whining about how “gross” the recipes are and such

✢ Just as she does for you, you’d help take care of her as well, brushing her hair when she’s tired, feeding her spoonfulls of any dish Senshi makes, and tucking her into bed

✢ Despite Marcille’s clumsiness and quirky behaviors, you still care for her very much! (even if you don’t want to admit it)

✤✤✤✤

✢ He’d call you kid, youngin’, etc… no lie

✢ Senshi is pretty lenient with you but he knows when its time to step in to prevent you from doing anything rash

✢ Just as he does with everyone, he’d make sure you’re fed the necessary nutrients a teen like you needs for growing

✢ If you aren’t a fan of vegetables or fruits, he’d try to come up with a recipe that masks the taste

✢ The way you and Senshi spend time is by cooking together; he’d guide you every step of the way when it comes to harvesting ingredients, prepping them, and then cooking

✢ When you take it upon yourself to cook a dish using ingredients from the dungeon, he’d be very proud!

✢ That said, he’d also teach you the ways of the dungeon and how to preserve certain elements of it to maintain harmony

✢ Senshi is almost like a wise old grandpa to you!

✤✤✤✤

✢ It takes a while for her to come around as her upbringing was very different from yours

✢ You are likely helping her with her hygiene and health since she is unable to properly care for herself or eat her vegetables

✢ Considering the two of you are closer in age, I feel that Izutsumi would eventually find some similarities with you and confide in you about certain things

✢ Eventually, she’d grow comfortable and would tease or bicker with you a bit, getting into harmless fights and challenges (who can hunt down the most monsters, eat the most meat, etc…)

✢ You guys are basically siblings!!

𝙗𝙤𝙣𝙪𝙨!!

✤✤✤✤

✢ Again, like Laios and Marcile, she’d treat you as if you’re her younger sibling

✢ She’s not as protective as Laios and Marcille, but she still frets over you after confrontations in the dungeon

✢ Falin would enjoy helping you with any issues or concerns that come with growing up, considering you’re both tall-men and she has been through the changes that come with adolescence and early (early) adulthood

✢ Falin would enjoy gossiping with you from time to time, or just simply chatting with you during night watches and such

✢ If you’re having trouble sleeping, she’d help lull you to sleep through stories or humming tunes from her hometown

✢ Her presence is very comforting and you can always rely on her for support and respite

good to have u back! ive been thinking...maybe blade with an s/o who's also marastricken but worse?

pairings - blade x marastruck! reader

content - reader is gender-neutral/ established relationship/ reader is suffering fr

disclaimer - gonna be nice and short since I don't normally write for blade, but I figured I try :))

warnings - angst

⋘ ʟᴏᴀᴅɪɴɢ... ⋙

↻ Ahh where to begin with this..

↻ I feel that Blade has been by your side before your condition worsened (immortality and all that)

↺ That being said, he's been your pillar through the worst of it

↻ If you're a Stellaron Hunter, Kafka would try to help you with managing the symptoms/effects that comes with being marastruck

↺ With time however, Kafka's spirit whisper would start to lose its hold on you and your symptoms would become much harder to manage

↻ Blade (and the others around you) would see your condition slowly worsen, and there wouldn't be much for him to do considering you're immortal

↺ This would be one of the times he has felt an immense amount of pain; seeing you fight back the changes but fail.. he feels hopeless

↻ If your condition has morphed into something severe, he'd have to restrain you and keep you somewhere to prevent you from harming others (or himself since your memory has been deteriorating)

↻ It hurts him a lot to see you this way; so before he gets his wish, he wants to cure you or rid of this burden

⋘ ᴄᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ! ⋙

[kotoku]

Guess whooooss backkkk… Sorry it’s been so long guys! Inbox is open if you wanna chat or request something small for dunmeshi, stardew valley, and hsr. Right now I’m taking drabble/headcanon requests, something small to just get back into the groove of righting and uploading. :)

Thank goodness finals are over, I hope everyone has had a great school year (or year) and is doing well on any finals or projects. I’m kinda cooking with my classes, however I think I’M about to be cooked next semester… (cough 6 classes in which one is a lab cough) Hopefully work doesn’t get in the way but there’s a chance I’ll be dead again in the fall. Nonetheless, I’m back for now and hope to continue with my hsr series and other works!!

It’s nice to be back. :)

[kotoku]

hey 👋🏽 just thought I’d pop in, see how ur doing

Oh hey!! I forgot my inbox was still open but it’s nice to see these kinds of check-ins. Apologies for replying so late!

Aside from me popping in here and there to visit tumblr posts and fanfics, I’ve been busy with college work. Tis very unfortunate, I’d rather be writing fanfics and whatnot than research papers and presentations.

Besides the busy college life, I’ve been doing well! I’ve been slowly trying to get back into writing, specifically working on that one 10k word dunmeshi fic. I’ve also been getting back into art and have been going to the beach more often.

I have tons of trips coming up considering birthdays, a funeral sadly, graduations, and friends visiting. A very busy year ahead of me, time has practically flown by and my birthday is slowly creeping up on me (August…).

I have also been working on personal growth like my fitness journey. I love participating in yoga and weightlifting. If anyone has the time and interest, I’d definitely recommend it— my flexibility and strength has greatly improved. :^)

Anywho, that’s a summary of what’s happened so far. I hope you and everyone else has a lovely semester or year! I’ll (hopefully) be making a comeback towards the ending of the semester. See you all again soon. ^^

[kotoku]

This is so off-brand but I was planning to make a comeback at the end of the semester and maybe get into Stardew Valley fanfiction.

Anyways I headcanon Shane being a fan or just heavily listening to Linkin Park during his shifts at Joja and in general. Like try and tell me this man wouldn’t be internally jamming to “One Step Closer” while daydreaming of choking out Morris.

Small spoiler for Emily’s heart event below 👇

Just look at his outfit during Emily’s heart event. 😭

[kotoku]

imagine during the changeling arc, half-monster reader gets turned into a tall man and after a while they start to realize… they miss their old body

BYE

Name: It’s so damn cold… I wanna change back already.

Laios: What ?? I thought you always wanted to be a tall-man—

Name: NOT ANYMORE

half-monster!reader clawing at their skin because this body feels weird and they want to change back RIGHT NOW.

half-monster!reader in a corner just looking off into space because they feel so out of their own skin that nothing feels real.

half-monster!reader who when they finally change back, they cradle their body as they cry tears of joy because DAMN that as weird.

the party watching on stunned because they thought that the reader wanted nothing more than to be fully human.

you take that any wishes of being human back.

P.S !! yall pls send more asks or whatever, ANYTHING, am so bored… i promise i’m working on req but it’s fun to do these lil’ things. (college is also starting to take up some of my time—)

(Name): I need to confess something kinda sick and twisted. I feel like you’d understand.

Lauos: ??

(Name): … I’m wouldn’t be totally opposed to eating a demi-human.

ohh my goddd, laios wouldn’t think your the type of person to be willing to dishes including demi-humans, BUT CONSIDER HIM ON BOARD WITH YOU !!

maybe when marcille (and chilchuck) are away doing something else, you, laios, and senshi might find some ingredients and cook up a dish. poor marcille (and chilchuck), they wouldn’t be able to see it coming.

half-monster! reader reminding me of that one song “god must hate me”

also laios x half-monster! reader is so “mary on a cross”

WAITTTT YOURE ONTO SOMETHING ANON, THIS IS ACTUALLY SO LEGIT I CAN SEE IT. 💥💥💥

laios the type of man to spend hours complimenting every part of you, he can never get tired of it (and you).

[kotoku]

not exactly a request, but…

Imagine being a sort of half-blood monster humanoid, perhaps even one of a handful, and spending most of your life feeling as though you don’t belong anywhere, like you just came out wrong and there’s no cure for it...

And then you meet Laios and he absolutely freaking adores you and will not let you forget it.

imagining reader just hiding every single part of their appearance that shows their half-monster side, always walking with their head bowed down in shame. they have experienced so much hate, disgust, and horror to the point they don’t have much mirrors so they can avoid looking at themself. it’s truly sad.

i could see the reader usually spending most of their days down in the floors scavenging for some items that could be sold for money, considering it’s pretty detached from the surface world. maybe the reader is like senshi, who makes the dungeon their makeshift home, navigating the ecosystem and surviving all by themself. i think a floor that may be more deeper or less populated with adventurers is where reader can safely show their more monstrous appearance/self.

and then one fateful day, the reader meets laios. whether its through helping him and his party escape a monster or simply stumbling across them by accident, you’re now bound to his little gang of weirdos. he’d enthusiastically ask if you’d like to join, not knowing your true identity since you immediately sealed yourself away beneath a hood/etc… the reader, who has nothing much going on and figured they could use a change, would join (mostly due to laios’s pestering because you were pretty petrified of these people finding out what you are).

skipping ahead, lets say during a fight your identity was revealed. your appearance shocks the entire party, some feeling a little wary of you (their suspicions were already developing because whatever the situation, you always had that damn hood/cloak on). but nonetheless, they’re accepting. especially a certain blond tall-man who had a undying love for monsters.

ahh, count your days because this man is going to be the death of you. he’s so stunned, happy, fascinated, and angry because why didn’t you tell him !? what do you mean you hated what you are !??! WHY WOULD YOU HIDE SOMETHING AS COOL AS THIS FROM HIM !?!??!

laios is so envious of you, goddamn.

he’ll use every chance he gets to study your anatomy, your biology, your whatever. he’s obsessed. the others are interested too but not as much as laios… often having to wack or chase him away from you when you start feeling overwhelmed.

besides laios’s excited self, the rest of the gang are open to hearing about your insecurities and are a great support system. senshi would like to learn more about you so that he has an idea of your diet and what nutrients you need. chilchuck, a stern fatherly figure to you, would make sure laios isn’t getting too handsy with you. he’s also there to nail it into your head that you arent weird or anything (tough love huh..). marcille, if she doesn’t have any information on your species/monster, would like to learn more about you as well. like chilchuck, she’d be sure to drag laios away when he’s got a little too close and up in your personal space.

one night, you’d explain to laios about your insecurities in detail and your history. he wouldn’t really understand it because you’re so cool ??? but i think he’d get it because he’s been in that kind of situation back in his home town. he may not exactly know what you went through, but at least he’s able to understand and if you let him, he’ll gladly help/support you.

bye, you’d cry from happiness/relief from the party, especially laios’, acceptance.

group hug ensues**

sorry this was so long, it’s a lovely concept and i love just imagining it ^^

[kotoku]

working on a laios x reader fic with a coffeeshop au but it’s taking a little longer than expected… i fear it may be a bit of a slow burn as i near 5k words with only pining being the most that has happened so far… 😭 we’ll see how far this goes.

apologies to the people who have requested for the hold up… 🥲

[kotoku]

this shit is at 10k words…prepare yourselves.

[kotoku]

GOOD LUCK WITH UR FIC!!
