can you write some headcannons for a mc that suffers from migraines and how the rfa would help her?
sure! i also get migraines and theyâre so, so bothersomeâŚhonestly one of the worst kinds of pain, mainly bc of the photosensitivity orzsince you specified the pronouns iâll be using she/her for this! ^^
YOOSUNG:
* MC never mentioned her migraines to him-it honestly just slipped her mind to do so
* So when Yoosung comes home to find MC laying on the couch, all the lights in the apartment turned off, a blanket over her head, he panicked
* He dashed to her, foregoing turning a light on and nearly tumbling over his dropped bag, as he kneeled beside MCâs face, pulling the blanket down despite her groans of complaint
*Â âMC? Hey, sweetie, no whatâs wrong?!â
* When she explained that itâs something she gets frequently and how lights and noise make the pain even worse, he breathed a sigh of relief-seeing MC in pain was horirble, but he was glad at least itâs something sheâs used to and not deathly serious
* He didnât want to bother her too much with talking, but he did ask what he could do to help-anything MC wants, heâd do, just say the word!
* Like the good boyfriend he is, he gathered MC up in his arms and took her to the bedroom so she could rest better, making sure to shut all the blinds and lights in the room before doing so, setting her down gently on the bed as he tucked her in.
* He wanted to go back out to the living room and google on his phone tips to help ease migraines, but MC held his hand, mumbling a complaint as he made to leave. Yoosung turned, seeing MC mouth the words âstayâ, and well, what sort of boyfriend would he be if he didnât comply?
* He stayed beside MC, running a hand through her hair and gently massaging at her scalp until he felt her slowly fall asleep, continuing the ministration until he knew she wouldnât rouse if he got up.
* Heâs relieved to see her refreshed and better the next morning, albeit a bit drowsy-the pain did wake her multiple times, but he was there for her every time, and even got up at some point to make her some warm tea and bring some painkillers. She apologises for disturbing his sleep, and Yoosung rolls his eyes, flicking her nose teasingly.
*Â âYou could never bother me MC-no matter what, being able to see you smile like this itâs always worth any effort!â
ZEN:
* MC had mentioned she frequently gets migraines, but so far into living with him, she hadnât experienced any.
* That is until one night, Zen came home late from rehearsals, opening the door to their home and seeing all the lights in the place turned off.
* Figuring MC must already be in bed, he turned the lights to the living room on, only to stumble back in surprise as he heard MCâs groan from the couch, her complaint of âTurn it off please-ughâ making him instantly turn the lights back off.
*Â âBaby, what are you doing here? Itâs late, you should be sleeping-and whatâs up with the total darkness?â
* MC, unsurprisingly, wasnât up for much talking. âGot a bad migraine. Everything hurts, lights hurt my eyes.â
* Zen nodded, his brow furrowed-he hated seeing his princess in pain. He remembered Jaehee, and how she oftentimes got migraines too, and how she said painkillers donât really help, but compresses to the eyes and a good nightâs rest do the trick most of the time.
* He rushed to the kitchen, closing the door behind him so the light wouldnât bleed through to the living room, and started warming up water to make some lukewarm compresses with chamomile tea bags, making a cup of tea for MC to drink too if sheâd be up for it.
* He walked back out to the living room and picked MC up in a princes-carry as the tea brewed, ignoring her complaints and taking her into the bedroom, placing her on the bed as he leaned over to give her a kiss on the forehead.
* For the remainder of the night, Zen held MC close to him, singing a quiet lullaby, urging her to focus on his voice instead of the pain. Despite most noises making the migraines worse, Zenâs voice was deep yet soft, a gentle lull that made MCâs mind drift off and shift itsâ attention away from the pain.
* In the morning he brought her a cup of tea in bed, and when she thanked him for the help the night before, he merely shrugged.
* âIâd do anything for you darling. Although, if you really want to thank meâŚâ he tapped a finger to his lips, his smile devious, âI do take payment in kindâ.
JAEHEE:
* She also gets migraines! She knows exactly how much they suck, so MC is definitely not alone in this
* (Fun fact: Women statistically suffer from migraines more than men do!)
* When working at the coffee shop with MC, she notices her wincing everytime she turns towards the industrial lights hung at the ceelings, how as the day progresses she starts to become distant, pressing her hands over her ears when the music becomes too loud for her to handle.
* Jaehee is instantly there for her, taking her to the backroom and dimming the lights, leaving only some light bleeding through the shutters of the windows so they could see their own footing at least.Â
*Â âIâll take care of everything outside. Rest for a bit, take these, and when youâre feeling up for it, we can close up early and go home together so you can get some proper rest, okay?â
* Jaehee brought her a pack of medicine from her bag-usual over-the-counter medications donât work on migraines, so she had a prescription for a specific type of painkillers, and always had them in her bag just in case. She gave them to MC, making sure she took them before going back out to manage the shop, closing the door gently behind her as she let MC take a nap on the couch.
* Once the medicines kicked in and MC was feeling well enough to take the trip back home, Jaehee quickly locked up and held MCâs hand all the way back, giving MC a kiss on the temple when she winced in pain.
* Baeheeâs got her MC covered-from cold compresses to soothing white noise, anything she needs to get through a shitty hangover, Jaeheeâs got it-and MC couldnât be more grateful.
* Later in the night, when MCâs half asleep with Jaehee running a hand through MCâs hair, she couldâve sworn she heard Jaehee hum a song-it was quiet, but there, her soft voice trailing into MCâs mind, bringing sweet dreams through the night.
JUMIN:
* He came home one evening after work, asking the bodyguards how MC was, and the answer freightened him-Â âMC has come home earlier from work sir, she was feeling unwell and has been resting in her room ever since.â
* Jumin tried to calm his frantic mind, taking slow steps to the bedroom as he gingerly opened the door. âMy love-are you there?â
* MCâs groan in response made him frown. Was she that unwell? What happened? What could he do to help?
* He knew MC had frequent migraines-itâd happened before, and as panicked as he was that first time, he made sure to read up on everything he could about the issue, to know fully well how to handle it the next time it came around.
* When MC confirmed that it was yet another migraine, Jumin nodded, giving her a quick kiss on the temple before leaving the bedroom to let her rest.
* Heâd only come back a few hours later to make sure sheâd take her painkillers, and with a cup of black tea for her to drink even a little-heâd read that small doses of caffeine could actually help, and wanted to make sure sheâd get some in her system.
* Overall heâs very calm and quiet-he dims the penthouse lights throughout so they wonât bother her, and whilst heâd usually put a vinyl on the pick-up for them to enjoy, he skipped it that night, settling instead to sit on the couch reading with Elizabeth the 3d besides him.
* At night he held MC close, letting her rest her head on his chest as he trailed his fingers across her back. She already seemed better, and he was thankful for it.
* Of course heâs the type of dude whoâd go to a million different doctors asking if they can cure migraines, but the answer was always the same-you canât cure migraines, thereâs a hereditary predisposition towards them, you can only try to minimise the pain and avoid flare-ups, blah blah blah. Heâd definitely fund a unit to research a cure to migraines regardless. Anything for his beloved.
SEVEN:
* He doesnât get migraines, but staring at computer screens for hours on end everyday of the week does cause him to get very frequent headaches in general, so oftentimes both he and MC will be nursing a nasty pain, trying to help one another feel better in any way they can.
* They have a cabinet for painkillers in their kitchen, and have marked the stronger medications from the lighter ones with a red X, so theyâll know what to take when the pain becomes unbearable.
* When MC gets a migraine, heâll turn all the lights off and dim his computer screen as much as possible-he doesnât want to leave her alone during those times, but he also canât completely abandon his work, so they both make do. Sheâll usually lay on the couch and heâll take frequent breaks to check up on her, or sometimes to just squeeze in beside her, holding MC close to him as he pretends to cast spells to take the pain away.
* MC loves when he runs his hands over her forehead and eyes-his hands are always freezing cold, and itâs a welcome soothing distraction from the pain to feel the coldness on her eyelids.
* He wishes he could do more, and does dive into the depths of the internet for advice-but he knows that what MC needs the most is just some comfort and quiet, so his usual cheery meme-ness is gone whilst MC is in pain. Instead heâll whisper soothing encourangements, promising her dates and kisses as soon as she feels better.
* Heâs just such a supportive boyfriend my dudes, give him a pat on the bad for his hard work pls
