Lucio with an MC Who’s “Definitely” Not Morga’s Family Favorite…
This is Lucio route btw. Very much inspired by @iliveforyouilongforyouvesuvia’s headcanon about the M6’s families with permission.
Nadia with an MC who’s really close to her sisters and parents due to not having a family of their own (for reasons which I’ll leave vauge s
She denies all such claims. Actually, no. When Lucio whines and points out there is clear favoritism, Morga just replies, “Know your place, boy.”
Lucio begging you for your secrets.
(From the referenced headcanon, courtesy of Vesu) If your hair is braidable, she will braid it as often as she sees you with it down and scold Lucio for not taking better care of you. His response is, “But you keep yours down all the time!”, and she just huffs.
She told you a story from her childhood while braiding your hair once. When she was a little girl, she and the other girls her age used to braid each others’ hair during their free time, and on a day after they practiced how to tie knots, one of the girls accidentally knotted another girl’s hair and they had to chop it off…
Morga probably takes a liking to your magical abilities. Normally, she’d be a bit skeptical after Lucio’s Biggest Temper Tantrum, but after spending more time with you, she observes how you use it in your day to day and eventually comes to respect it rather than simply not care.
Ever since you started cooking for Lucio on some days, you’ve kept a vaguely written recipe book of your best work and Morga was a little unsettled how you took it out while cooking so close to the fire. When you explained you kept a fire resistant charm on the book, you might have grown a little on her. Not that it was obvious. With Morga, a huff could mean a yes or a no, and it seems like only Lucio knows the difference…
Morga on her way to scold Lucio for making you cook anyway.
She tells you many embarrassing stories of Montag’s ventures, including the one where he fled a sick bear. She’ll tell the occasional cute baby story that she knows he hates. Oh, but she does NOT leave out her experiences of her pregnancy with him. It’s a source of humiliation for him, one that he cannot justify. Lucio trips over a branch? His legs must be weak from all that kicking back then. He feels a little sick? Get up, boy. I withstood the plague AND having you in my stomach for nine months.
If you’re feeling sick, she won’t do anything unless it’s really serious and she can actively help, but will demand Montag take care of you as he’s groaning that he already knows. It does unadmittedly please her when he shows he can hold his own and properly care for you at the same time.
Her frigid heart hurts a little when she sees you two fall asleep together. It reminds her too much of the past, and she is stubbornly unwilling to accept that Montag can change so drastically for another person.
If you give her a gift, her reaction is deeply based on what you gift her. She has no need for fashion or luxuries, but if you gift her things she can utilize, she’ll gladly accept, and she might even return the favor. Her gifts are always hand-crafted by herself.
You haven’t even brought up the idea of starting a family yet but she’s already lecturing you about children. “A word of advice. Pray that you receive a girl.”
Hello!! What about the M6 with an Mc who still sleep with stuffed animals?? I still need to lol
The Arcana HCs: When MC sleeps with plushies
~ I hope you're ready for some lighthearted, tooth-rotting fluff anon! this one's dedicated to Pooh-boo, my loyal dream guardian of 22 years, and his many friends. thanks for the lovely prompt! - brainrot ~
Julian
Hey, you do you! If it helps you with stress or sleep then he's not one to judge
Seriously though, does it actually help with sleep? What about nightmares, does it help with nightmares? It does? Good to know, good to know ...
He will ask you if they have names and personalities and then suggest you introduce them to him. He will also jokingly introduce himself to them and thank them for their service
He now refers to them as "the children"
If you have any kind of discussion or lighthearted disagreement he will bring up "the children" and tell you that they're on his side
No really, they think he should stay up a few more hours too! They're so invested in seeing how this study turns out, you wouldn't deprive the children of that, now would you MC?
You should really join him at the Rowdy Raven tonight, MC! The children will be fine for a few hours, they think it would do you good as well. Malak can babysit them!
Speaking of Malak, if you get a raven plushie at any point in time it's Julian's favorite child
He will threaten to replace Malak with it if he doesn't behave
He doesn't mind you bringing the plushies to bed as long as he's still the main thing you're snuggling with. He has been known to wake up holding one with no idea how it got there
Asra
They think it's the most adorable thing they've ever witnessed, please never stop, it'll make them so sad not to see you all cuddled up and cute like that
Will snuggle them with you if you're okay with it
Makes a habit of bringing one back from every trip, in all the colors of the rainbow. Sometimes he'll name them in advance and concoct a ridiculous backstory for when he introduces them to you
Back when you were still recovering, they would sometimes leave a dab of their perfume on one of them so you wouldn't miss them too much at night
When you realized that he missed you on his trips too, you went out and got him a small one to fit in his bag and keep him company
They cried a little after you gave it to them (without letting you see)
It really helped him cope with your memory loss to know that you still wanted to be a part of his life, even when your condition and his isolating habits made it difficult
They have a favorite of your plushies and will cuddle it in front of you before they leave so it's charged full of all their snuggles to share with you while they're gone
Faust likes hiding in the pile of them and playing peek-a-boo, popping her little head out at random intervals
She refers to all of them as comfy friend and will threaten anyone who laughs at them
Nadia
Very, very surprised when she finds out, to the point of being momentarily speechless
She's not judging you at all. She just figures that it's a specifically MC thing that you like to do, even if she doesn't understand the appeal
When you start sharing her chambers with her she's initially a little put off by having them in her space
Not because she dislikes them, but because they're seen as childish and she's spent the last thirty years at least doing her best to distance herself from any and all childishness possible
She still likes to spoil you though, so she will regularly purchase new ones for you until you have enough to bury yourself in them
You notice she tends to get owl-themed ones, especially when they're made of similar material to her comfier clothes
She does grow to like them eventually
There's even a few well-founded rumors that she was spotted talking to them when you weren't around for her to verbally process her thoughts
Looking at them becomes almost as soothing as meditating
She will never admit to any of these things
Funnily enough, she does feel the need to be in a different room from them whenever she wants to heat things up with you a little. Something about their innocent little gaze freaks her out
Muriel
He doesn't say anything the first time he sees you hunker down with one, but his face and his mind are both screaming "What."
Genuinely did not know that anyone past the age of five could do that
Assumes that it's because you don't have a familiar yet and this is your way of coping. He knows he sleeps much better with Inanna around
He suddenly decides that he likes your habit when Morga makes several negative comments about it on your trip South. He'll quietly suggest you put it between the two of you so it doesn't roll out
He knows they're important to you, so he makes sure to have a good spot for them in the hut when you move in
Ideally somewhere out of Inanna's reach. You both know she probably doesn't care that much but neither of you wants to find out how quickly she could rip one to shreds if she felt like playing
He does find that they're very soothing to hold and squeeze sometimes, especially after a taxing day
He'll come inside and carefully wash his hands before sitting by the fire with one, idly smoothing his massive fingers over it if he accidentally squeezes too hard
If you charge one full of your cuddles and hand it to him to keep him company while you're gone, he'll turn bright red and sweat
He will keep it nearby and safe until you return though
Portia
She laughs when she finds out
Not the mean kind of laugh, the friendly kind of laugh that thinks it's a little silly but in a good way and very endearing
She loves how cozy they make the cottage feel. Don't just keep them in a heap, put some on the couch! On the chairs to hold a place for unexpected guests! By the fire, but not too close!
She never sleeps with them herself, but she doesn't mind them joining you at all
She does like playing with them though
Most of the time it's just to tease you. She'll hold one in front of her face and wake you up with a silly voice
Other times, if she's bored and in a very specific mood, she'll go full storyteller mode and use them to act out entire epics
The last novel she read? It's being dramatically reenacted on your stomach, complete with little red ribbons for the backstabbing scene:
"Blood! Blood! Blood! And ... DEATH."
You will never be able to read Hamlet the same way again
You were worried that Pepi might try to test out her claws on them but it turns out that she likes to nap in them instead. Which makes her hard to spot, because she is also very small and fluffy and cute
Portia once used an old skirt of hers to make you one for when she took an ambassador trip without you. It's your favorite
Lucio
When he first saw you holding one as a ghost he laughed so hard it made you jump
Gave you so much grief for it at first that Asra finally snapped and threatened to shove one up his -
- you know what, that would be too cruel to the plushie in question
He didn't comment on it again, and later apologized quietly once he had more practice acknowledging his mistakes
He still secretly thinks it's babyish until you ask him to hold one for you while you're juggling your traveling pack
It's so ... soft. And oddly comforting
Tries to hide the fact that he's reluctant to give it back when you're ready to hold it again
But now he reminds you to bring it to bed every night, because you sleep better with it, right? Yeah, no other reason
Except that you keep waking up with it missing, only to find it snuggled under his chin
He claims every time that it just got there because he was cuddling you, and doesn't say anything when you start bringing at least two to bed instead
Throws a fit when you get him one of his own because he's scared that his gauntlet might tear it. He names it five minutes later and now they're inseparable
He got one each for Mercedes and Melchior so they aren't tempted to chew on any of yours. Or his
Kinda combined handcuffed and collared and begging
He doesn’t have to stand that way btw, the chain is long enough so he can stand normally. He’s just..on his knees. Bc it’s Julian
I understand If this is out of your comfort zone, but would you be willing to do the main 6 and the courtiers seeing self-harm scars on their partner?
Course! Sorry I havent been updating, y'all 😭😭 I know I've said this but I PROMISSSSE I will update more, I just need more time okay okay I'll updatemore I swear and please dont hesitate to send requests, it really does motivate me :)
Asra💜:
Of course they're concerned, but they don't quite know how to bring it up
They don't want to embarrass you or, dear gods, make it worse
If they're old scars they'll feel a bit better but if they're fresh he definitely feels more pressed to ask about it
And finally, when Asra does, he makes sure to do it gently.
No yelling, or tears from them or anything at all to pressure you, they just want to know if there's anything they can do to help.
If there's something specifically triggering it they'll definitely throw that shit out, but if it's a person they'll definitely make sure they do not bother or upset you ever again.
If it's something mental, of course they'll never, even be mad at you. They'll help you any way he can.
Julian🦠:
The first time he notices he immediately asks.
Of course he's definitely not angry or joking or nothing, he just has to quickly make sure you're not hurting at the moment.
He'll not get mad at all or anything, he just needs to know that you're not bleeding an that nothing has gone too deep to be cause for a hospital
He'll do whatever you need or want to help you whether the scars are fresh or not, whether that's talking about it, not talking about it, or doing anything in between.
All in all he supports you no matter what, and will support you in whatever way you need.
Nadia💙:
She's worried, she won't lie.
She knows they're just scars, it might not have even been inflicted for years... but still.
Of course, she still cares, but she doesn't want to micromanage you, you're grown and can make your own decisions.
But at night when you two lay together she can't stop herself from glancing at the scars, wondering if you're hurting on the inside and she's doing nothing...
One day, she just blurts it out, asks if you're alright, if anyone or anything has made you hurt yourself recently.
No matter your answer, she'll support you, and reassure you that of course she would never hold anything against you for being human, naturally.
She loves you more than anything, after all.
Portia🧡:
She can't help herself, just like her brother, she immediately asks about it.
She just wants to know if you're hurting right now, if you've been hiding your pain, if she can help.
She's not going to pressure you at all, but she might get the slightest bit emotional when she thinks about it.
If she can help whether the scars are new or old, she definitely will.
At night she might even say a few mumbles Hebrew pairs, begging g-d for your happiness, your health.
But she will always, always, always love you with all of her heart.
Lucio👑:
He tries to keep silent for awhile.
He doesn't want to make you angry or sad or maybe even happen to hurt yourself so he just stays quiet. He can't help but wonder, though. What if you're sad? What if you're depressed? What if your scars are new and fresh and he hasn't noticed?
He just mentions it softly one day, ready to back out of you can't handle it, ready for everything that could happen.
He just wants you to be happy, and if you don't want to talk about it, he won't, no, he couldn't even imagine attempting to force you to talk about something you don't want to.
But he'll stay with you no matter what your answer is, whether it's crying or silence or screaming. You're his partner and he cares for you, so, so much.
Valerius🍷:
He drops his wine when he sees. He can feel his breath quickening and you hadn't even realized he saw anything when you look at him and, god, he can't look at those eyes of yours without being driven insane.
He asks immediately, tearfully, if you're okay. That's all he wants, god, he'll be happy as long as you're okay.
He'll never be angry at you. But he might cry. Just slightly. But it's still the first time you've ever seen his eyes water at all.
He'll do anything he needs to if you need to feel better, if you need a therapist, food, drinks, medical care-- he has a large supply of money and you deserve it more than anyone, he cares not the cost.
At the end of that night, he might hold you a bit more tightly. And he shudders at the feeling of you skin, breathes your aura in.
Vlastomil🐛:
Horrified, immediately.
While he won't make a scene because he doesn't want to upset your or anything, he does ask you when he thinks your calm and won't freak out.
But of course, if you happen to freak out, he'll definitely be able to handle it whether that means staying or leaving you alone.
He's not angry at all if the scars are fresh or old, you're still the love of his life either way.
If you need something to help, or lots of somethings, no matter what it is, he's going to get it. It doesn't matter how, what matters is you.
And he loves you.
Valdemar💉:
Their breath has not quickened for so long, for a moment they can't even name the feeling that is running through their cold, dead veins.
Worry.
When you catch a look at them, you're concerned. They've never looked at you like that before.
But suddenly they're dropping to their knees before you, clinging to you, eyes wide and horrified.
Their voice is breathless and soft when they speak to you, when they softly reach for your face to caress the curve of your face, look into your eyes.
They haven't spoken so softly in years. They really do care.
Whatever it takes, they'll give it to you if you need it, dosent matter if it's medicine or stim toys or anything else that could help.
And they don't mind getting rid of anything or anyone for you, either.
They don't plan for anyone to hurt you. And they don't change plans.
Volta🍰:
Bursts into immediate tears.
She's always been an emotional woman, and while she is so quick to tears under normal circumstances, she cries the hardest you's ever seen.
She can barely explain herself, and only manages to when she's finally calmed down, as she tearfully asks you, are you okay, are you okay? Are you bleeding? Are you upset? Do we need to talk?
But she quickly manages to compose herself, to hurriedly wipes her tears. She doesn't want both of you to panic, after all.
She'll definitely make sure to comfort you if you need it, and if you start crying, she will manage to hold back tears long enough to comfort you.
But she'll always be loving towards you, not mad, barely upset, and definitely not at you, just at the world, and she makes sure to help if you need it and give you whatever you need.
Vulgora⚔️:
Their heart is racing like their first fight.
It's been years since their heart has raced fast enough to pump their veins with the bad sort of adrenaline, with the horrific feeling of fear.
But they manage to keep calm. The only outward showing of their distress is the slight tremble of their hands as they grasp your own, eyes on your face, not your scars, just you and those eyes.
Whatever happens, if you relapsed, if you hurt yourself again, if you never do it again, they will never ever be angry. They'll always be there for you.
They're your partner, after all. It's engraved into their own ethics now to give you anything you wants whether that's time apart, time alone, more things, less things or anything else.
And they love you just the same no matter what.

Requests are open!
Aspiring writer that mainly will write for The Arcana visual novel on this blog. Rules:
Dont's:
Don't DM looking for a
Lucio's reversed ending is lowkey hilarious. Imagine being Valdemar, not feeling fear for the last 2000 years, and then this random magician smacks you down SO HARD your fear sensor *starts working again*.
And then 30 minutes later you find out that this magician is your new boss for eternity.
Valdemar is NOT having a good day
NSJSJWWJB NO STOP CUZ THAT WOULD BE HORRIBLE. I know that would DEFINITELY break down Valdemar's ego lolz. Especially since in their eyes they're probably, like, 'old as time itself, fearful monster, the things that your gods fear', all that monologue stuff 😭
