6. 💖 What is each person's love language? (Words of affirmation, acts of service, giving gifts, quality time, and physical touch)
Question being from this post here!
Ah yes, one of my favourite recent ships I consider to be semi-canon. I have several ideas for these two in particular, but it's best to start small for this particular duo.
Heiress' love languages would undoubtedly be quality time and giving gifts. She isn't the most confident when it comes to physical affection other than hugs, so she would probably not be the one initiating a lot of physical interactions with a partner, or even just with a friend. But despite this, she is the strongest at just spending time with her partner and her friends, and giving them things to feel wanted and loved. From food, to jewelry, to clothing, she'd try her damnedest to make sure her partner knows how she appreciates them.
Phobos, while he is not my character, I can pretty easily tell what his love languages are; words of affirmation and acts of service. While I imagine he's weakest at giving gifts because of his lack of understanding the current modern era, he'd know exactly what to say to make people trust him and to deepen a bond with them. And his actions are just as carefully chosen as his words. A date night for something rarely witnessed, a box of chocolates with a candle lit dinner, it'd be no surprise that people could fall in love with him.
Of course, is that always a good thing with him?

Phobos belongs to my good friend @lostsoulau-ask who had asked this question, so I gotta ask to not ask for others to not ask for their OCs being shipped with my OCs. 😅
Merry chrismas! Heres a reference sheet for a tottaly normal Dream Matter, yup definitly normal dude-
This dude is called Phobos :3 (He/him/they/them/it)
He is a Matter Born from the Mirror World and Nightmare's Mirror counterpart !
Also fun fact! You can sometimes tell if someone of his kin is old by cheking their wings (if they have)! Phobos' ... undisclosed amount of wings confirm this even! Their wings starts black, then as they grow takes a white coloring and for the oldest, you can even see red at the tips!
Under there its him when he was younger, he used to have black hairs! All peoples of his kin have naturaly black hairs that will never turn white, for Phobos he got his hairs white becau-
[It is unwize to seek other's secrets. Dont you think ? Beside Phobos is just a Dream Matter, just like you and me :3]
Morningstar laces his fingers around his softly steaming cup of coffee, the crackling hearth providing additional warmth and a lovely flicker of light to the table.
“Mister Somius; and, of course, Doctor. While I am certain you have no issues in subduing an unruly patient; I am curious to know if you have a tale of your most troublesome patient. However if the patient is anything as distressing as a Soul Beast, I will have you know that in that particular case you should not feel coerced to share. That being said, I am eager to hear about any other particularly sour beings and hope that you spare no detail.”
They froze slitgly at the question, their cup still warm in their hands. Somius took a shy, almost heasitant sip of the warm liquid, neither were a fan of coffee but he apreciated the gesture.
"I-i tend not to restrain using violence, a-at least not often-" Somius spoke quietly. "I-i had a few who were... q-quite disturbing-" He quikly continues "I-I-I won't say any names for privacy purposes- b-but Dark Matters were s-sometimes... not quite easy to restraint-" He took a sugar cube from the tray, puting it gently into the cup. "W-we had to catch up t-to chairs and t-tables multiple times a month-" He looks to the side, uncomfortable with certain memories "I-i still hope to forget the one who possesed the sewer networks in the Northen wing-"
He took a sip from the cup, mumbling a curse at the bitter taste of the coffee despite the sugar "But of course Soul Beast and Dark Matters are more common in the Mirror World than many would think of." Doctor sounded sligtly annoyed, "the prospect of death being near inexistent for most, Soul Beast are much more prown to apear when someone shatter." He paused, "The most recent one was panicked- even violent as they thought that we were another minion of this... Angel of Fear." He huffed before finishing the coffe, the bitterness still coating his palet "For an entire month I was seen as a 'demon' or a monster by this ...person- I had a cross thrown at me more than once- But at least i took the compliment with pride knowing I still instil fear into the heart of peoples~"
Doctor: He huffed in annoyance, this is clearly a question that neither him nor Somius amuse. "Since you decided that reading the room wasn't on your agenda, I shall inform you of something~" He throws the letter onto an already quite big pile situated in a crate near the fireplace. "This pile of scrap paper had been assembled using only... those sorts of letters."
After an angry gumble, he turned his chair so that it faces away from the camera. "So if that can finaly make you all stop asking this quite idiotic question then so be it~"
"I am quite awaire that my face share some resamblances with this ...thing. But i must precise that I am the mirror counterpart to the Lucid Dreamer, who has also similar feature in some regards~ As for the rest ... I belive that if you need to wear glasses~"
Words from OP :
This question was the most often asked on my blog.
While yes, I know that Doctor looks like Spamton, after the 20th time being asked that same question with almost no other ones being asked isn't fun. I adressed that multiple times.
I know it is not great to rant in an ask post, but I had those "Why Doctor Look like Spamton ?" asks being at least 3/4 of the total asks i got.
Doctor is a Dark Matter, who in my AU naturaly got black hairs. They're the Mirror counterpart to the firework of color that is Lucid.
They are an 8ft Tall LICENCED DOCTORs and one of the DIRECTORs of the biggest HOSPITAL in the mirror world.
But saddly, most of the lore and world building I got will be either thrown into the wind or stay in discord. Because more than half of the questions i got are about his resemblance to a 4ft tall washed up salesman with a penchant into mangling sentances.
So please, stop teling me that Doctor Somius, look like Spamton. The joke had gone sour some time ago already. And it undermine the work i, alongside my friends who helped me put into making them as nuanced as possible.
For the Kirby Oc Halloween collab, I got Doctor from @lostsoulau-ask ! He's meant to be both Frankenstein and the monster, hopefully I conveyed it well enough ^^
"Autumn is my favourite. I don't like Winter, since my fur isn't really... that thick during that time, and Summer can get a bit too warm for me, too. I don't like seeing Papa so upset, as well."
"I love to go foraging during autumn, and last year, while I was looking for some mushrooms, I found the strangest little guy."
"He said his name was Somius. Poor thing couldn't even get up to fly away. He said he was startled by a loud sound, and accidentally hit against the tree."
"Thank goodness he's much better now."
@kirbyoctournament
This was a collab between myself and @lostsoulau-ask! He did the lineart, and I did the colouring and shading!
Somius: I-im sorry, I cant quite chose one- Theres a lot to chose a-and it would take quite a lot of time for us to decide on one-
B-but one of my favorites are the Marble C-crown! I-its a... M-mirror World pastrie that is very much akin to the Croissant of the Regular world b-but with Marbleberries* for decoration a-and a nice sugary taste!
Doctor : Ever since the Dimension Mirror was opened (and of course some adaptation time~) Both of us had quite the ...delightfull surprise~
...Not just about the fear, of course, but there was quite a different set of ...treats to chose... or not~ The profitroles** were quite the acceptable welcome as a nice treat to relax after a hard day~
(the definitions are undercut :])
*Marbleberries are the mirror world's equivalent of rasberries, usualy dried or/and candied, they are considered a popular treats amongst certain peoples due to their taste akin to an apple or a pear depending the breed!
**(more of a annon talking here) Due to me having lived in the distant and mystical land of the baguettes (france) all my life, some pastries might sound unknown due to me potentialy using the french name for it, please corect me if some things are wrong and hope yall havin' a good day/night :D
Mirror worlders are made of glass… and mirror world glasses… are also made of glass…
Doctor: We arent entarely made of mirror/glass, It is a quite ...common misconseption that Mirrorfolks are mostly made with that sort of thing due to the Monarch's curse making us temporarely shatter upon expiration of the body.
But don't worry~ We can always come back from the dead as good as... almost new.
Timeline of Shard and his Mirror counterpart (TW theres sensible subjects, i will try to be as familly friendly as i can but there is still yikes stuff)
Mirror Folks are mostly seen as simply a dark mirror oposite of their Regular counterpart but in this AU, they are their own person!
Of course, if we took a timeline of a MirrorFolk and its regular counterpart life, we see that most of their character and events had been quite different, almost mirror oposite (eyyy).
I will say it now, im not an expert in anything psychologie. If many details are being glossed over or plain wrong, I apologise for this.
Also In this (and future post), you might see me refer to Somius' and Doctor as siblings or things siblings related, i like to refer them a siblings bc exept some arguments and accoastional rivalrey that dosent last for too long, they are getting along as siblings and one refers to the other as their sibling!
And one thing before we begun, neither Doctor or Somius are outwardly evil, one is seriously out of touch and caused horrors, yes, but the dudes never been in a healthy environement in their lives so-
[the timeline of both Shard and Doctor Somius are undercut bc they were longuer than i thought]
Shard's timeline in the AU:
Shard is adopted by the Squeak Squad and grow in a familly oriented crime familly (familly first, job second), after a while when hes an adult he start his carrer as a Knight because he wanted to protect peoples, he goes onto the abandoned Pop Star, meets and help Buddy and Crowny and love story insues.
They are lovey dovey for a while untill the ForgotenLand when Shard takes the Star Rod to avenge his lover's death, turning into the LuciDreamer.
After some time being in a yikes possition mentaly, he and Buddy managed to reunite and they live a happy life (safe for some shenanigans and horrors)
Somius' timeline in the AU:
Meanwhile Somius started his carrer as a doctor because he wished to help peoples but hes not the phisical type (for now), he goes to Pop Star who is still rulled by the Tyrant (aka Mirror!Buddy/Mirror!Magolor), he becomes the head medic of the castle and works in the meadbay, he tries to help Tyrant but its unsuccesful and the poor Somi ends up in a worst place.
After years of abuse, he had enought and goes to grab the Nebula Cane, turning into a Dark Matter. However, the transphormation leaves him in a weakened state all around and he needs to stay in the now-upgraded sickward for a while.
Thats when Doctor shows up, Somius was wildly terrified at the fact that someone else was using his body but after a while of ...erm 'sibling rivalerie' (im sorry i don't have other terms right now-) both soon learn that cooperation is the key to live a normal life.
After a while of adjusting, healing the few wounds left and helping around, Tyrant showed back up and while Somius is too terrified of him Doctor decide to give the Tyranical overlord a piece of the Karmic Boomerang. And thus the Tyrant was gone from the throne and turned into a soul beast.
Doctor is ...exentric and out of touch, yes but hes not evil, living in the Mirror World isn't easy and many things that are seen as horrifying in the regular world are like a normal saturday in the Mirror World. Plus, hes the one whos facing the horrors head on most of the time since it takes a lot to make him nervous.
While Somius is still the kind yet awkward person hes mostly (?) known for, but his anxietie became worst (with everything that happened, would you blame him if hes a nervous wreck) with the medbay turning into a full on Hospital that replaced the old castle with him (and Doctor) as the head director.
In the AU, even after they gets out of the Mirror, both Doc and Somi are still trying to keep the fact that they are two in this body, mostly fearing of the consequences.
As i said before, I am not an expert in psychologie and most things i will say will probably be wrong.
I will gladly take advices of peoples ! Any comment is welcome to make sure i don't make anyone uncomfortable in the presentation! (English isn't my first language so it might come out wrong in some instances)
