Since I made one for my overwatch sideblog I decided to make an official one here!
Cherie, She/Her, Korean
-Proshippers DNI
-Very random with what I post, mostly reblogs
-The one thing I’m actually consistant with posting here are related to Kpop (Even then I dont stan any group besides IVE, I love them), though I also enjoy Pokemon, Kirby, and Magical Girls!
Speaking of my overwatch sideblog, Its @cheriewatch! But I might still post about Overwatch here every now and then, that accs more focused on gameplay
I also have an Heartsteel hyperfixiation and I have an oc x canon/self shipping blog called
I am back on this blog after about 5 months (cause I was too focused on my league sideblog) to say that I went to the IVE cocnert (Show What I Have Tour) and I have THOUGHTS
1) I went with my mom cause my sister is still at college and I didn’t have anyone else to go with, she was more then happy to go with me tho (Her bias is Yujin, mine’s Liz and Wonyoung)
2) I knew only pretty people stan IVE and all but OMG the OUTFITS everyone was wearing?? So much of those platform heels and the ribbons everywhere and the Love Dive school uniforms like YALL UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT (I wore something that looked like the black dresses with the stockings in I AM era, complete with the pearl necklace). Personally one of my favorite parts about kpop concerts are to see the outfits everyone wears lol
3) Yujin and Leeseo, I hope you know your Woman Like Me cover changed my life thank you
4) And Gaeul with 7 Rings holy shit
5) The horror VCR followed by Hypnosis and My Satisfaction???
6) All Night was such a good way to end the concert
7) Also as I was waiting for the concert I saw someone carry the IZ*ONE lightstick with them like DAMN that was kinda foul- not against anyone carrying other unrelated groups lightstick to concerts and anyone says otherwise is wrong (Sometimes we don’t have money and all) but I just thought it was funny that it HAPPENED to be the IZ*ONE lightstick
8) Also while we were waiting I saw this other girl wear this cat ear beanie and it just so happened that they had red hair and I know I’m too brainrotted by Heartsteel to immediately think of Sett at that moment
I hate being sick my throat has been hurting for the past 2 days and now I have a lowkey cold
I was supposed to get a perm today which was something I wanted for a long time (I got a perm earlier this year in March but the curls went away) but now I cant because I’m sick and tired and its better for me to just stY home today
Okay thats it..I caved and made an oc x canon blog. Its @scarlet-moonlight where I can ramble about Aphelios, Heartsteel and my OC Seol because I love her and Aphelios lot! I’m moving all my Heartsteel stuff there. I dont have anything and I’m still setting it up but still check it out and watch me fangirl lol
I HATE MY HYPERFIXIATIONS SOMETIMES DO I MAKE A NEW SIDEBLOG TO POST MY APHELIOS SELFSHIPPING BULLSHIT BECAUSE IM INSECURE ABOUT ANNOYING PEOPLE OR SPAM THIS ONE BECAUSE I KNOW ITS JUST A HYPERFIXIATION THAT’LL GO AWAY EVENTUALLY
How Heartsteel would react catching their S/O singing/dancing to “Paranoia” (to their part if applicable)
Inspiration: Me being a dancing/singing/lip syncing fool every time I listen to the damn song, especially while I’m cleaning my apartment.
Genre: Headcanon
Category: FLUFF
Gender: Gender Neutral Reader
TW: Swearing
^^(How did they get this GIF of me dancing?? 😂)
General things:
Setting the scene, let’s say it’s the first time they’re coming home after the song has released so they’re really getting your reaction to the finished song for the first time.
Ok let’s be clear, all of them would be so flattered and would love this.
Having a supportive partner means EVERYTHING TO THEM.
So even if I don’t put “it means a lot to them to catch you doing this, etc…etc…, it’s still implied.
Aphelios:
He’s had a long day in the studio working with Yone on the next album’s instrumentals after doing a debut music show, so he’s very ready to be home with you and to take it easy tonight.
Grins under his mask as he opens the door and hears “Paranoia” blasting on the Bluetooth speaker he got you for your birthday. He knows how much you love to jam to music!
Sneaks to wherever you are, not wanting to disrupt you and absolutely wanting to grab a photo he can send to Alune (after swearing her to secrecy [not that she would send the photo of you to anyone anyway! You and her are good friends too]).
Manages to get an excellent photo of you using the duster as a microphone, a smidge of dust on your cheek.
You’re so absorbed in your “performance” you don’t notice him at all.
Right after you mime the *ding ding ding* of the bell in Sett’s verse, your smart watch buzzes with a text message.
“I hate to disrupt your award-worthy performance, but what would you like for dinner? (Also you have a little dust on your cheek, cutie.)”
When you spin around and finally see him, he’s spinning his mask on his finger and giving you a sly grin, winking as you gasp in surprise and blush at being caught.
He grabs a tissue and gently wipes off your cheek before giving you a gentle kiss hello.
(I have a headcanon that he would primarily communicate to his partner using sign language)
*Signing* “I’m glad you enjoy our work, love!”
Seeing you love something he put so much effort and time into really brings him a LOT of pride and will continue to motivate him.
He helps you clean and asks you more about your thoughts on the song.
You were in the studio while he worked so you’ve heard parts of it, but you and him agreed that you shouldn’t hear the finished song until it released to the public. It was your suggestion actually. He was ready to let you listen to it early but you wanted to experience the full excitement of waiting for their debut just like everyone else.
Which he LOVED.
Ezreal:
This litTLE SHIT (said lovingly)!
Smug man #1
He will NEVER LET YOU FORGET THIS.
The SMIRK he has when he walks through the front door and hears the all-too-familiar intro to the song.
And when he hears you RAPPING along with Kayn’s part??
NO WAY is he missing this!!
He immediately makes his way to wherever you are and positions himself so he can see you without you seeing him.
Phone camera is at the ready.
Starts recording a video right before the pre-chorus begins and his part starts.
He can’t help but smile as you switch to lip syncing, clearly wanting to hear/focus on his voice.
You’ve told him many times how much you adore his singing voice.
(And he’ll never admit to anyone how much hearing you say that means to him but that’s a different story)
It takes every fiber of his being to not reveal himself while he’s recording.
He’s about two seconds from giggling.
Records through the end of the chorus before stopping the recording and immediately sending the video to the Heartsteel group chat with all the members and Alune. They all love you so he knows they’ll love seeing the video.
He puts his phone away and plans to sneak up on you. (Lmao sneak up? I mean flash.)
This man is an EXPERT at surprising you.
Flashes right behind you before the second pre-chorus starts and starts singing, bursting into laughter as you let out a surprised scream.
He gets a well deserved pillow to the face for that.
Later Yone texts you and tells you that he’s “glad you like the song enough to sing and dance to it throughout your daily tasks.”
And Aphelios hits you with the “:)”
And Ez gets another pillow to the face before bed.
Followed by a kiss because he is POUTING.
Kayn:
This SMUG motherfucker!! (Again, said lovingly!!!)
Smug man #2!!
Comes home to you cooking dinner for you and him, using the spatula as a mic.
Does THE shoulder lean against the door frame (y’all know what I mean, especially if you read romance novels) and just watches you with the biggest shit-eating smirk on his face.
That smirk only get bigger as the song ends and restarts and you don’t change it, telling him you’ve had their song on repeat for who knows how long!
If anything, you’re getting even more into it, starting to dance a little more now and adding some little ad libs while he raps.
Ex: “If you try to step to me, it’ll be the last time” You *in rhythm*: “FUCK YEAH”
He absolutely loves it.
Honestly you’re making him fall in love with you all over again.
Also gives him the idea to ask Alune if you can help make up the fan chants (although he’s sad because he knows they’ll have to be a bit more PG)
Can’t help himself as he lets out a chuckle, giving himself away in the process.
Holds his hands up peacefully as you spin around, ready to throw the spatula if needed.
“Sorry baby, I’m afraid you can’t use me for target practice.”
“God Damnit, Kayn, you know I scare easily! How long have you been home?”
“There’s a reason I stayed over here instead of startling you over there where there are a bunch more kitchen utensils you could have reacted with. And to answer your question, enough time for me to understand how much you seem to enjoy our song.”
You playfully, roll your eyes, shake your head, and smile as he comes over and wraps his arms around your waist, kissing you hello.
He’d definitely tell the guys what he saw, but he wouldn’t film or photograph you (this time 😉).
K’Sante:
I get such immaculate vibes from Heartsteel K’Sante.
Like I’m a BTS fan (woot woot ARMY) and I get very very similar energy/vibes from K’Sante and RM.
Like I do not know what it is, but I would trust K’Sante with holding/watching my drink at a club if I needed to run to the restroom. He has that sort of good energy.
I suppose it’s the…safe? energy??
Absolutely hilarious to use that word considering the batshit things they did in that movie studio.😂
But you know what I mean!
And being in a relationship with someone who has this sort of energy would be A++++.
(I know this is a bit of a tangent but I swear it’s relevant to the topic)
K’Sante’s part in “Paranoia” has that same sort of energy to it. (It’s so hard to explain what I meannnn)
And when he catches you singing and dancing along to his part, the bridge of the song, while you’re folding/putting away laundry, I think he’d watch you for a couple moments.
But only a couple.
He’d make his presence known a bit earlier
Because then I think he’d come join you! ☺️
He’d start singing with you and encourage you to keep singing with him.
He’d gently pull you a little closer to him.
And obviously the slower paced part of bridge doesn’t last forever, but even then I think he’d still dance with you once the song ramped up with you (hard to explain but think casual dancing with a partner at a club/bar).
It would be so FUN??? Such a fun sweet moment between the two of you.
He’d of course then help you fold the laundry.
“It’s only fair since I distracted you from it for a bit!”
You’d keep listening to music with him as you both get some chores done around the house.
Definitely making sure to take time for more dance breaks (duhhhh).
Sett:
(A/N: I love the entirety of “Paranoia” but something about Sett’s verse makes me absolutely FERAL!! THE LYRICS. THE VIBE. THE INSTRUMENTALS. PerFECTION! ØZI fucking nailed it.)
When I first started thinking about this, I thought that Sett would be smug guy #3.
Now I’m not quite so stuck to that idea.
Oh don’t get me wrong, he’d definitely hug you and tease you once you saw him watching you and blushed a deep red.
But they would mainly be half-hearted teases.
And internally? You know this man is melting about you and how lucky he is to have you as his partner and how much he loves you.
Sett clearly has such a soft side for the people he truly loves and cares about.
Have you seen how much he adores his Mama???
You are like the only other person who can really bring that soft side out of him.
And catching you already having the lyrics to his verse down 100% is something that would bring that out of him.
Speaking of his Mama…
Sett would absolutely take photos or videos of you.
But they’re only going to one person.
That’s right, to Mama.
We’re going to assume that his mother really likes you and you really like her. (You think this man is going to be with someone his mother doesn’t get along with? BFFR)
Though let me say I think she’d be very easy to get along with.
Like I definitely don’t think she’s the mother-in-law from hell I keep seeing stories about on TikTok.
But anyway, he just wants to show off his favorite person to his other favorite person (who also adores his favorite person).
And little do you and Sett know but that just inspired Mama to knit you a sweater that matches the beanie she made that he wore in the MV. As like a holiday present!
(I’m so sorry this one was admittedly a little self-indulgent but I think it’s so cute!)
Yone:
Oh this man.
Obviously everyone has worked extremely hard so that Heartsteel can debut. Everyone has had late nights and long days on little sleep.
But as Heartsteel’s main producer…
(Not to mention band mom!!)
Yone really had a record number of late nights at the studio.
Reworking a passage over and over and over….
And OVER
Until it’s right (or until Aphelios/Alune drag him out of the studio at 3am telling him to work on it tomorrow with fresh ears).
And he’d never tell you, but you know he’s felt really bad about all those late nights. All those nights he wasn’t with you.
Potential dates missed because of deadlines.
Not that you were angry with him or anything.
You love him and you know how much pressure he’s put on himself.
And the last thing you want to do is potentially add more pressure on him.
In fact, you and him made a routine the past couple months. Whenever he’d have to work on the weekends, you’d come over to his studio each night during the weekend and bring a movie/couple episodes of a show and takeout.
And he gladly lets you pull his attention away from work for other media and cuddles.
(I feel like in private Yone would be more cuddly than one might expect of a stoic man like him.)
But during these media breaks??
This tall man was like a damn koala the way he cuddled you (not that you were complaining).
So seeing you sing and dance to the song he produced…
Even though the production of this song meant you often went to bed alone….
Was so fucking cathartic for him.
It made him feel like every sacrifice was worth it. Just to see how happy you were to dance and sing to the song he put so much of himself into.
His expression would be so soft as he watched you.
And after you noticed him and gave him a smile, he’d come over and give you a hug, burying his face against your neck.
You are his MUSE, and don’t you forget it.
Ahh thank you for reading! This is my first bit of creative writing in over 5 years, so apologies if it’s not great!
Shout out to @coco6420 for telling me on my main account to not stop myself when I talked about being tempted to post headcanons for Arcane/Heartsteel. Well here we go. 😂
Okay so Heartsteel opening ceremony/“debut stage” is coming up so now I’m imagining me comforting Aphelios because I feel like he’s very nervous about performing for the first time without his vocal cords. (I think thats how it goes? He was a singer before his surgery and he worked as a songwriter after and now in Heartsteel)
I want to tell him that even without his voice I still love him for his personality and charm and thats why I fell for him in the first place. I’ll probably joke about how cute he looked in the mv so he can just go up there and be pretty and its still more then enough lol
I’ll tell him that he’s still gonna dance and have fun with all the other members and that if nothing else, I’ll always be proud of him and I’ll support him always (I hope they do that thing for True Damage where they used projections/screens of all the characters and its not just the singers on the stage cause otherwise this is gonna be very awkward to look back on lol)
Its special to me because he helped me get over my stage fright on my first dance performance at school and how he told me that he’ll always support me whether I do good or not. Its like repaying the favor I suppose, but more then that I just wanna to be there for him the way he does for me (Though what I do will never measure up to the support he gives me) I’m totally imagining my oc decorating a lightstick+wearing a matching outfit for his performance lol
Anyone who also ships themselves with another member Heartsteel please imagine hyping your favorite member up for their first stage at Worlds because its wholesome and I like the idea of comforting them for once
Ykw I’m just gonna throw out all my Aphelios self insert headcanons cause I am so turning this into an x reader blog for the next couple of months and I am absolutely normal about him
Most of these are used interchangeably with Classic and Heartsteel because I love them both (Feel free to use these as you wish)
-Still obsessed with the idea of Aphelios having stars in his eyes as a Lunari, also obsessed with the idea of caressing the area around his eyes to admire them and giving him little brow/eyelid kisses (Even more if its his left eye with the moon marking on his face)
-Aphelios is surprisingly good at braiding hair as he did it for Alune when they were kids. I imagine him braiding/playing with your hair while humming something soft to himself. The feeling of running your hands through your hair helps him calm down and he loves it
-He can sign and will teach you phrases or words if needed. Other then that though, he usually brings a piece of paper around with him to write what he needs to say
Adding onto this to say in the Heartsteel universe, he uses sticky notes and now I’m imagining a cute scenario where you collect all his sticky’s behind his back
-He puts a lot of thought into the letters/messages/songs he writes because its one of the only ways he can express how he feels, especially when it comes to you. He makes yours extra sentimental because of it, and you eat it up everytime because they’re always super beautiful and elaborately written.
-Aphelios likes doodling! Its safe to assume Heartsteel Aphelios drew his discord profile himself but in both universes he draws cute sketches of you and Alune and/or the sights he sees (As someone who also draws this hc gives me a lot of comfort)
-I’m totally imagining a random scenario where Heartsteel!Alune paints yours and Aphelios’ nails while watching a movie together
-Something something kissing/dancing in a rainstorm at night in a super sentimental manner (Until you get sick the next day from being out in the cold and he has to take care of you)
Can I make the super self-indulgent definitely not canon compliant (Cause I dont actually know anything about league lore and im too lazy to research) that all Lunaris are born with little galaxies/stardust in their eyes including Aphelios
Then I can imagine tracing my thumb under his eye and admire how they sparkle,,,giving him kisses on the eyelid (Especially on his left eye with the moon marking, makes it extra special)
Oh that also applies to his skin, I imagine him with stardust on his body glowing faintly in the night,,,it just makes him look prettier then he already is
may i request aphelios x reader where the reader is dealing with stage fright before performing, and he tries to comfort them/help them get through it properly? I’m actually performing something for school this week and i felt like I needed this, so thanks!
Sure can do and good luck with your performance
Oh fuck
Why did you agree to it?
I mean it was just a little collab stage at an award show
But how were you going perform next EVELYNN AND QIYANA?!
You were sure they were gonna outshine you
I mean they were what everyone else talked about
You were just an afterthought
Suddenly breathing became difficult and your eyes started to water
You can't do it
Suddenly you felt someone's hand on your shoulder
You looked up, it was Aphelios
You couldn't help yourself, you hugged him and started crying
You felt bad for getting his shirt wet, but he didn't care
He just hugged you back and calmed you down
He even gave you a note full of supportive messages
You felt... better
Like a huge weight have been lifted up from your shoulders
Even if no one else paid attention to you, he did
And that's what mattered
He helped you calm down your breathing and helped you fix up your makeup
Little comfort character win today? This is gonna be cringe
So this entire week I was preparing for a dance performance i signed up for at school, and I was feeling kinda nervous about it because its my first time performing and all but Aphelios made me feel better about it.
I went up there and did really well! I played it off naturally and most of all just had fun! And I feel like I have to thank Aphelios for it, for all the comfort he gave me. After the performance when I was walking home I saw a lot more stars in the sky, i couldn’t see the moon, but there were definitely more stars then usual, a lot brighter too. I cant help but imagine him hanging them up in the sky to cheer me on (I’m sure Alune probably came up with the idea first however)
I’m just rambling cause im feeling a lot and im lowkey sleep deprived but it just feels like i found him at the right time honestly
The best part about me crushing on Aphelios is that I can obsess over him like I used to do with kpop idols without having to worry about them making me heartbroken in two very different ways but still heartbroken nonetheless because hes not real and hes always happy and perfect in my eyes
though then i get sad over the fact that he isnt real
May I request some more Aphelios crumbs please? Anything works also sorry for the inconvenience if it's too vague again (could I mayhap be a regular anon? I wanna take 🎃 anon hehe)
Of course you can, 🎃 anon (I spend an embarrassing amount of time looking for this pumpkin in the food section)
Aphelios x reader
Gaming with Aphelios headcanons
Kinda went with a lot of my childhood games in there lmao
He usually plays rhythm games, if you do too, he will always compare your score to his, maybe even letting you win some stages~
But if you don't, he's willing to try anything
Usually you two will just play random games on Roblox since it doesn't require a lot of brain power
But if you wanna do something different, he's willing to look at some multiplayer games with you
Fell in love with Stardew Valley
Everytime you two play it, he wants to marry you, and if he can't, since you wanna marry an NPC, he will marry the one most like you
Other than that, you play browser games like fireboy and watergirl
He also has at least one Papa's game on his phone
He will create a save file for you
And you will serve customers things like mayo covered burgers
Because why not
It's amusing
You both also enjoy watching the other play video games, he'll usually hug you from behind and watch
And if he's on tour, demands streams when you're playing and talking with him
Because of that he knows your entire Sims family since 12 generations ago
Gaming is usually his way to unwind after a stressful day, so having you there? Even better!
Won't tell you this, but he loves to watch you so focused on whatever you're doing
He always wants to give you kisses on your face when you do, but doesn't want to distract you from your game
So sneakily taken photos will do
Alune joins you sometimes!
You always make sure she doesn't feel like a third weel
Since she's not
She's the only one keeping you two from destroying the entire world in Minecraft
Or from letting all your crops go out of season in Stardew
