I'd like to ask headcanons of your faves with a Reader from the Kure Clan, unless one of those faves is from the Kure clan. Can from anything but mostly thought of your Saw Paing.

˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ RAE'S NOTE. lol, i had to rewatch some parts of the anime for this one (what a great time). i didn't know whether you wanted the headcanons to be platonic or romantic, so i wrote a couple for each. the romantics ones are signaled by a heart icon before the em dash.
thanks for sending your request, dear @sethezh14 . i hope you like how they've turned out (<3).
friendship and romantic headcanons of ohma, gaolang and saw paing with a kure! reader
—This goes without saying, but at first it's a surprise to all of them to end up forming a good relationship with someone from the Kure Clan. This is partly because the clan itself isn't exactly known for being friendly, if you know what I mean. And that's without even mentioning how well they get along—note the sarcasm—with the couple of members they already know.
—Ohma finds silent support in your presence during your training sessions because, yes, you both share a training space from time to time. He's not much of a talker, especially when he's in the middle of an exercise, and even then he can't help but make a dry comment or two in your presence because that's how comfortable he feels with you.
—Given your styles of fighting, it's normal that towards the end of your training sessions you both end up sparring until the floor cracks, and he calls that "a good afternoon," mind you. You two have that particular knack for matching each other's intensity enough not to overwhelm each other on the first try.
—Ohma's one of the few who don't consider the Kure Clan's techniques monstrous, which means he doesn't criticize you for using them. That also means that, if the opportunity arises, he'll observe you in great detail to study each of your movements. Then, once it's over, he'll ask you, quite bluntly, about assassination stances as if they were just another martial art.
—Discussing one technique or another can end up in more or less intense debates about the pros and cons of your respective arts, since the efficiency of the Kure Clan may clash quite a bit with Ohma's raw adaptability.
♡—Now, on a more romantic note, he doesn't do dating traditionally—there's almost nothing about him that suggests normality to begin with. His idea of an ideal date would be going to a rooftop with the city lights illuminating your surroundings and sparring lightly until both of you are breathless on the floor. Then he sits with you, sharing food in the quiet ambient, legs dangling over the edge as you both converse or not at all.
♡—Now, given that it's a more intimate relationship, Ohma might be willing to add some physical touch to the equation. Neither of you are used to gentle touch, so it might take some time, but little by little you'll start to feel a hand squeezing on your shoulder, him pulling you closer after a fight, and so on. It's a gradual change that requires a terrifying amount of comfort, because it shows you're not just a comrade, but someone he's afraid of losing.
—To begin with, Gaolang has a deep respect for all disciplines, which applies to the rigorous training the Kure Clan puts its members through. That kind of endurance and profound training discipline fascinates him. So much so that he'd ask if you could teach him certain conditioning methods, even the painful ones. Learning something new, especially from someone he considers a friend, makes him genuinely pleased.
—It's difficult to coordinate your schedules, but Gaolang insists you join him on the rare occasions you share to do cooldown stretches after a harsh training session. He'd correct your posture with a professional tone of voice and gentle touches, explaining how you should do it to avoid damaging your muscles. And that's not even mentioning when he scolds you after you return injured from a dangerous assignment.
—As an activity you both enjoy, thanks to your diverse knowledge of martial arts and the like, you can easily end up discussing hypothetical combat scenarios, often focusing on Kure stealth tactics. He takes clan methods seriously, as it's not every day you find someone sharing that kind of information. However, he'd also talk to you about Muay Thai and boxing without hesitation.
♡—A typical date with him would be similar to Ohma's. In this case, it would be a quiet and private evening at a Muay Thai gym, which he'd request be closed or rented, so you could be alone together. Gaolang'd prepare a clean mat where you both can teach each other different techniques from your respective arts. Afterward, he'd prepare a simple meal to help you replenish the energy spent in the intense training. Your dates tend to end with him taking your pulse and gently touching your wrist with his thumb for longer than necessary.
♡—I'd say he's quite private about his personal life, aside from being a celebrity in his native Thailand, so he tends to be more composed in public, being much more affectionate in private. And yet, he seems to lose that image of serenity the most when he knows you're fighting or something similar, because even though he knows the Kure clan doesn't need protection, he still promises to take care of you out of devotion.
—Call me crazy, but I think Saw Paing'd be thrilled if you were part of the Kure Clan. Not for any specific reason related to brute strength, but because he genuinely sees it as the coolest thing ever. I wouldn't be surprised if he brags about it whenever he gets the chance, like a proud brother of sorts.
—The aforementioned training sessions—in Ohma's part—also take place with him, only in this case, it's much more chaotic, which clearly demonstrates his personality. He'd ask you to teach him the clan's techniques, shouting with excitement at the prospect of learning even the most dangerous ones in their arsenal. For obvious reasons, you'd refuse the most lethal ones you know, not trusting how they might end up; even so, he'd try to imitate your movements in the best of intentions… Although it wouldn't be unusual to see him crash spectacularly into a wall after attempting to copy you.
—Saw Paing has this vibe of a golden retriever on steroids with an insane energy. Add to that small details like his protective side, which means that for every person who insults you, whether passively or aggressively, he's already standing up in your defense with shouts before you've even had a chance to react yourself.
♡—Moving on to the romantic side, Saw Paing's very expressive, perhaps even too much so. Therefore, it's no surprise that he's so openly and unashamedly affectionate with you without any care about your surroundings. He's the type who would hug you from behind, squeezing you like a rag doll. He'd lift you into the air, whether you're taller than him or not, and then spin you around. He'd shout his love for you to the world, regardless of who's around. He doesn't care much about other people's opinions; all he cares about is you and his love for you, really—although he may happily present you to Gaolang if you two haven't met before.
♡—An ideal date for him would consist of something simple, almost typical, that would turn wild as soon as he had a chance to do so. He'd invite you for a stroll down a typical street lined with street food stalls, dragging you around by the hand, buying various snacks for the both of you, and loudly praising every bite he takes. Then he'd insist on taking a different route, mentioning things as ordinary as climbing a tall structure, racing down an alley to see who gets to x point first, or challenging strangers to arm-wrestling… You get the picture, right?

Heyooo it's 🦈anon againn!!! I meant to say thank you sooner but I'm an idiot 🤐. Could you do Hades Dionysus with an gn s/o who's kinda like valka from httyd? Tyyyy may you have all the pancakes you want
masterlist
˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ RAE'S NOTE. it's alright,🦈anon. i hope you don't mind the long time i had taken with your request (😭), i had to read the wiki for walka as i had only watched the first httyd movie.
thanks for your request 🦈anon. i hope you enjoy how it had turned out like (<3).
dionysus with a gn! s/o like valka
—Dionysus is genuinely fascinated by you, which came to be almost as soon as you first met.
—Your first real conversation, which took weeks to take place, lasted until sunrise. You found yourself engaging in a passionate ramble about everything and anything: migration routes, the beauty of places untouched by civilization...
—Dionysus calls everyone around him "mate", but the nickname becomes softer when it's directed at you. Sometimes he doesn't even realize how his voice tends to change in your presence.
—Your idea of a perfect evening would be sitting on a cliff overlooking the sea while strange animals–dragons for sure–gather nearby. He never thought he'd enjoy sitting quietly for hours, but somehow with you, he has found himself enjoying the unknown.
—Against your denials, Dionysus absolutely brings wine to every expedition you drag him on. Later on, you may discover that a warm cup of enchanted wine is surprisingly pleasant after spending days in the middle of the wilderness away from much comfort.
—Funnily enough, you're constantly rescuing any injured creature you find in your way. Such has come to a point that he has walked into your shared home and found: three birds nesting indoors, a massive boar sleeping on the living room's floor... And an unidentified creature is eating his grapes.
—The animals adore you, undeniably so, but oddly enough, they also like Dionysus. His divine aura seems to calm them, especially creatures that enjoy food or celebration.
—It has become a routine for him to start telling stories around a campfire while you're quite busy repairing saddles, weaving supplies or tending to animals. He swears those are his happiest moments on Earth.
—Each reunion after one of your many disappearances into the wilderness becomes quite the dramatic one.
"Mate! I thought you got eaten!" He exclaimed as he walked to the entrance to receive you.
Your arms soon found his form, bringing him fondly into a hug which he gladly reciprocated. "I was studying nesting behaviors."
He quirked one eyebrow, "for six days?"
"It became interesting..." You defended your case, furrowing your brows back at him.
—If someone ever dares to threaten your animals or damage a natural sanctuary you care about, Dionysus becomes frighteningly protective. The laid-back attitude vanishes immediately in favor of protecting your peace and whatever you've shown care about. No one should mess with an angry god.
heard requests were open so is it alright to ask relationships or parenthood hcs with qin shi huang alongside any other characters you'd like to add? it's ok if you don't want to
masterlist
˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ RAE'S NOTE. i ended up going for the parenthoods headcanons, hope you don't mind it. i had in mind adding three more characters, but alas i only had the time to write for these two (😭). maybe i'll write about the others whenever i've the time, though.
i hope you like it, dear anon. thanks for sending your request (<3).
parenthood headcanons for qin and tesla
—To no one's surprise, the little ones are treated like the royalty they're. They may be the emperor's child, but that doesn't stop Qin from teaching them how to carry themselves with confidence and dignity, regardless of which their status could have been. And that's not even mentioning the people hired to teach them that very thing in detail.
—Thanks to his more empathetic and emotionally sensitive side, to put it that way, it's harder for the child to hide their emotional or physical pain from their father. With just a look, he can tell they're upset about something before a word is even spoken. It's certainly convenient, though sometimes it can be intrusive.
—The biggest hype man anyone could ever have. Returning to the topic of achievements, if the little one accomplishes something as simple as winning a board game against one of his teachers, Qin'll react as if they've single-handedly conquered an entire kingdom. A bit of an exaggeration, but that's just how he is.
—Of course, if his child were to fail in the process, like any human being, he encourages them not to give up and to try again until they succeed. Because every dream is born from continuous effort.
—As an interactive way to share his experiences with his little one, Qin finds bedtime stories to be an ally. There isn't a night that goes by that he doesn't visit his child's room to share dramatic retellings of his adventures, complete with exaggerated sound effects and heroic poses. They might even stay up late with the excitement of the imaginary battle.
—I'd venture to say that Qin's one of the characters who would most indulge his child with whatever they ask for, if it's within their reach. If they want a book, they've got that book. If they want a flower that only grows once a year on a remote mountain in a neighboring kingdom, they get that flower the following week.
—If I had to think of him as a father, I'd say Tesla's one of the few who actually makes sure his child has all his questions answered, in the right way. That's to say, he won't tell them "it's like that because I say so", but instead, he can spend long minutes explaining the answer to their question in scrutinizing detail.
—If they ask why the sky is blue at 3 a.m. sharp, they're getting a full scientific explanation on how it's thanks to the sunlight being scattered in all directions by gases and particles in the atmosphere, and probably a demonstration of the Rayleigh scattering. Someone hold this man back; it's too late for his shenanigans.
—His child is growing up in a laboratory, in a way, since the house could easily pass for one. The living room is full of harmless inventions, prototypes, and somewhat more bizarre experiments. It's not hard to believe that the little one's toys are made by his own hands. At least that way it's cheaper.
—I imagine him as a father who celebrates both his child's successes and failures. As the proud human he is, Tesla sees every mistake as a valuable lesson, one that can help him stay on the right path in the future. He passes this perspective on to his child, reminding them of the importance of mistakes and improvement. After all, nobody is born knowing everything.
—Now, it's not all sunshine and rainbows, though, as Tesla tends to get more absorbed in his research than he should. More than once, he's stayed up late in his lab, losing track of time as he tries to solve an equation. That doesn't mean, however, that when he realizes his neglect, he won't make it up to the little one by buying him a new toy.
—If his child shows any interest in science, especially in his field, he'll light up like a lightbulb. His eyes will sparkle with delight, and a wide smile will spread across his face. His child could very well become his new favorite research assistant, taking every contribution and ideas they make as seriously as if it were any fellow scientist's work.
—I imagine them wearing matching lab coats, gloves, and goggles, with an engraving, "Tesla" and "Mini Tesla", or something on the upper left chest pocket.
Hai, rae, this is me again .... Since your request is open,can you do a headcannon for Vil and malleus (twisted Wonderland) x Male who's looks like Dracule milhawk s/o ?

vil schoenheit & malleus draconia with a mihawk-like male reader
—To begin with, Vil wouldn't know how to react to your presence at first, even bordering on being disgusted by it for one simple reason: you're impossible to read at first glance.
—For someone accustomed to the art of controlling a room with his beauty and essence, ordering everyone else around with a mere look or a few words, having someone who stands like a monolith with that air of elegance and intimidation feels exasperating. And yet, he can't help but be subtly interested in you, as he'll try to test whether he can break your composure with incisive comments or perfectly targeted criticisms.
After one of his many attempts to see your features show a hint of emotion, Vil had to admit something. ❝He’s beautiful in a way that can’t be sculpted. It’s… Exasperating.❞ The one who ended up breaking his composure was himself once he realized what he had just thought.
—Your uncanny skill with animals, as you can make a beast freeze or lower its head, is genuinely captivating to him. The fact that nature itself seems to recognize who you are and what you're capable of fills him with both envy and admiration.
—Even so, it's your quiet gaze that lowers the high walls of his heart, allowing you the privilege to see him more closely. Vil is a master of expression; as an actor and model, he's accustomed to controlling every aspect of himself. Every smile, every glance, every tilt of his head is intentional.
—But your self-discipline stops him, because he knows he can't act around you, not even exaggerate a reaction, when he already knows how you're aware of how much truth there will be, or how much will be lacking, in his actions and comments.
—So, little by little, he learns to see you as someone with whom he can vent his stress or complain about the constant pressure. The drama fades as it reveals the raw truth behind his perfection.
—Vil is still himself, after all. He prides himself on his refinement, being able to sculpt someone to elevate their essence and bring their talent to the forefront.
—Inevitably, he tries to correct your posture, guiding your shoulders and positioning your jaw. And, surprisingly, you let him move you without a word. But he only needed to take a step back from you so that you naturally returned to your own posture: that Mihawk-like stillness that characterizes you.
—That made him freeze. The audacity of your action clashed with its naturalness, prompting him to reflect.
❝You don't need my polish.❞ That was all he said to you. From that moment on, Vil learned to study you more in detail than to try to change you, admiring you as a perfectionist would a rare gem.
—As a random detail, Vil began to seek your company during breaks, sitting or standing next to you. There was no need to fill the silence between you with banal words in those shared minutes.
—As for Malleus, fascination quickly surfaced on his face, for in your profound silence he found a certain resemblance to something he already knew from back home. Your stillness reminds him of ancient fae royalty, of his lineage.
—Having you standing by his side has become normal, for he loves having someone next to him who, in a way, complements him. You're both silent, or so it seems at first glance, with an aura and reputation that precede you. Many are quick to judge you without ever knowing who lies behind the words, for it feels right to him to keep himself close to you.
—Malleus finds in you a figure both to admire and to sympathize with. More than once, the fae ends up talking more than usual around you about whatever comes to mind, like the gargoyles he loves. He doesn't expect a response per se, but he knows that in your silence and piercing gaze lies the permission to be vulnerable and to be himself.
❝Your quiet is louder than most men's shouting,❞ Malleus admitted once in the shared quiet of Ramschakle Dorm, away from anyone's peering.
—The new presence you brought felt like a fresh perspective to him. At first, he wondered if the calm that emanated from you had anything to do with the loneliness that plagued him day in and day out. However, as time passed and he got to know you, he understood that your stoicism stemmed from a profound discipline that few could comprehend.
—Being aware that, without the need for actions or words, you felt like any other being, Malleus found himself… close, for he wanted you to see in him someone you could trust in return.
—On those occasions when loneliness and melancholy knocked on his door, simply having you sitting beside him, without the need for words, calmed the fae. Your presence alone grounded him.
With a quiet sigh, Malleus leaned his forehead against your shoulder, mindful of his horns. ❝You always stay,❞ he said, almost unsure of what he was saying himself, ❝even when the world fears me… Thanks.❞
—As an interesting detail, Malleus becomes quite obsessed with the unique way you move. The precision of each deliberate gesture reminds him of the combat-like art from the ancient fae warriors. More than once, he has asked you to demonstrate your sword stance in the middle of a walk. You obligue with a single, fluid motion; all the while he simply stares, pupils glowing faintly. He may or may not ask you to train him…

—On those occasions when loneliness and melancholy knocked on his door, simply having you sitting beside him, without the need for words, calmed the fae. Your presence alone grounded him.
With a quiet sigh, Malleus leaned his forehead against your shoulder, mindful of his horns. ❝You always stay,❞ he said, almost unsure of what he was saying himself, ❝even when the world fears me… Thanks.❞
—As an interesting detail, Malleus becomes quite obsessed with the unique way you move. The precision of each deliberate gesture reminds him of the combat-like art from the ancient fae warriors. More than once, he has asked you to demonstrate your sword stance in the middle of a walk. You obligue with a single, fluid motion; all the while he simply stares, pupils glowing faintly. He may or may not ask you to train him…
i've decided to start taking requests once more. here y'all have the rules of the same. please, respect them when requesting.
request status: OPEN !
༉‧₊˚. — i'll accept requests for: love and deepspace, jojo's bizzare adventure (i'm more inclined to part five requests), twisted wonderland, shuumatsu no valkyrie/record of raganarok, bungo(u) stray dogs, kimetsu no yaiba/demon slayer, jujutsu kaisen, hades (game), hellsing (ultimate), dr. stone, one piece (it depends on the characters), stardew valley & fields of mistria.
༉‧₊˚. — i'll write mainly gender-neutral ( gn! ) reader, female if requested. and i'll do male too, but if i'm not comfortable enough with it (depending the request) i'll let the person know (if it isn't on anon). sometimes i may change fem/male request for gn if i don't know how to make it one gender (it genuinely happens).
༉‧₊˚. — i'll write mostly headcanons with a maximum of three characters per it; seldom having exceptions when it's for whole groups (for example; diasomnia (twst) or la squadra (jjba)).
༉‧₊˚. — i'll also write one shots, but those are pretty much more difficult for me, since the require more time. nevertheless, i'll try. this is one character per one shot; yet it's the same as the other one, groups might be exceptions.
༉‧₊˚. — i'll accept both sfw and nsfw, although i don't feel so comfortable with my nsfw writings yet.
༉‧₊˚. — please, understand that i'm in my right to decline any request in case i feel like i can't do it for whatever reason may it be.
༉‧₊˚. — and, also, this is a hobby for me. so, it's inevitable that it'll take me time (on most occasions) to write them. especially now, that i've to take more seriously my studies.

thanks for making your request, dear anon. i hope you like how it has turned out (<3).
love at first sight with mihawk
—Space and time seemed to stop abruptly and painfully. Mihawk only needed an instant in your presence to feel how your mere existence disarmed him.
—He didn't allow himself the luxury of reacting properly, not letting himself be startled by your beauty. Although that didn't change the fact that, for the first time in his long life, something new stirred in his chest, like an annoying pull on the left side… Dangerously close to where his heart rested.
—Despite this, any intention of remaining subtly close to you, to observe and learn something, anything, about who you were, was thrown overboard when reality dawned on the horizon. For it was your gaze, steeped in a terror he was used to seeing, that made it clear what you thought of him.
—He didn't need Haki of Observation to realize the inherent fear you had of him. He knew you were afraid of him, presumably because of the trembling in your body, and that very fact bothered him more than he could admit.
—This realization led him to behave in a way that was surprising for him.
Mihawk took a more passive stance. He rarely took the initiative in anything other than a duel, whether for a mission or simply for the pleasure of it. Even so, he felt compelled to do so with you, as there was no way you would approach him willingly.
—With remarkable patience, he learned to slow his movements, soften his voice so as not to appear (even more) threatening, even avoiding any movement that might seem abrupt so as not to startle you.
—Basically, his eyes were on you almost every moment they could be, without seeming frightening to you or suspicious to anyone else around. He observes you as if you were the most intriguing mystery to be deciphered.
—To gauge his own actions around you, he first had to learn how you reacted to your surroundings, especially to an environment you two shared. Your fear, your way of speaking, your tendency to avoid his gaze, among other things, revealed far more about you than you might initially expect.
❝You're not weak,❞ he told you one day casually, without even really looking at you. ❝You're just on guard. That's sensible.❞
—Everything Mihawk studied about you, with a mixture of his usual patience and a newfound fascination, made him fall more and more for you. It wasn't just that your beauty blinded him in that first encounter, but that everything about you was gaining ground in his heart.
—We're talking about the best swordsman in the world, so it was no surprise that he took a position of silent security beside you. It was nothing ostentatious, since he doesn't expect anything in return; it's undeniable that he had become quite protective of you, albeit quietly. Simply placing himself between you and any threat.
—I'd say that Mihawk didn't know how to flirt, or not intentionally at first, since sweetening his words becomes a tedious task for him in the long run. Even so, and I reiterate what I said before, he spoke to you with a brutal honesty, but softening his tone of voice to an almost intimate whisper.
—Although, he'd surprise even himself by wanting to make you laugh, because in his humble opinion, there's no better sound than your laughter. He's not exactly the kind of person who laughs easily, yet he tries to use ironic, almost subtle, comments if it means your fear will lessen and give way to a smile.
❝If you smile, I promise not to use Yoru all day.❞ If the intention behind his words was already crazy, the genuine addition of doubt in your expression could only bring a small, amused grin to your face. ❝I'm experimenting."
—Returning to the different side of himself that he showed only to you, when you were alone, that is, he let the "Hawkeye" mask fall away in those moments. He showed you who Dracule Mihawk truly was, without needing a reputation that only seemed to push you away at times. The weariness, the desire for peace, the weariness of the world, the longing for a proper duel…
—When fear finally abandoned you, when you finally stopped being afraid of the false image and admire the man behind it… He allowed himself the luxury of truly feeling.
—He noticed your gradual change, little by little, not pressuring you about it and giving you the time and space to open up at your own pace.
That day you approached him of your own volition. ❝You don't scare me anymore,❞ you confessed in a calm, yet somewhat nervous voice.
He almost forgot how to breath after that, ❝… Good. Then I can say it.❞
❝Say what?❞ You ushered, unsure of what he'd say.
❝That from the very first moment… I chose you.❞ He finally said it, letting himself meet your eyes properly for the first time ever.

Hello!!! I've recently seen your Record of Ragnarok content and I love it! If it's no big deal, I wanted to request a ror x female reader for Hermes and Nikola Tesla where the reader has mood swings easily but is a loving and shy person by nature. Thank you!!
masterlist
˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ RAE'S NOTE. this one took me some time, given i had to reread the wiki for them both and then watch a clip or two for better understanding. although i'm not sure how well it is. they're kinda gn given i didn't know how to make them feel genered (?).
thank you so much for leaving your request! i hope you like how it has come out, dear anon (<3).
hermes & tesla with a partner with mood swings who's loving
—We are all aware of the god's silent intellect, for it, along with his inherent ability to read your body language, allows him to detect your mood swings with surgical precision. It might seem odd, even suspicious, but you get used to having a walking emotional detector on your back.
—Thanks to his musical talent and that violin that seems to conveniently appear beside him, Hermes has found in playing a peculiar way to calm you when you're anxious or to accompany your moments of relaxation. Because, yes, a good melody can always lift the spirits, or so he claims.
❝Allow me. A melody to bring balance back to your heart.❞ Placing the violin on his shoulder and positioning his arms in their respective places, he began to play a simple tune. Your favorite one.
—Your more reserved nature, especially when you seem to blush at some of his displays of chivalry, strikes him as terribly adorable. Although Hermes doesn't openly admit it, it's evident in the sparkle of his eyes how much he's fascinated by your moments of genuine shyness.
—There are also times when, faced with your sudden outbursts of anger, he takes pleasure in gently provoking you with various comments here and there. He doesn't do it maliciously; he doesn't want to upset you, after all, but he can't help finding amusement in your very human and vibrant emotions. He does find you so interesting that he needs to study you in detail.
—Hermes is a god; that's something we all know, so don't be surprised if he uses his unique abilities to protect you at all times, whether you're aware of it or not. He levitates near you, manipulates objects at will, and moves with enviable elegance, all to keep you safe from any danger he perceives as imminent, without unnecessary drama.
❝Relax,❞ leaning in front of you, he placed a delicate kiss on your forehead. ❝I've already taken care of it before you could even worry.❞ A smile graced his lips once he pulled away and saw your tender expression.
—We're talking about the quintessential scientist of the human fighters, so it's no surprise that Nikola Tesla ends up analyzing your mood swings as if they were a scientific phenomenon—which, in a way, could be understood that way—but that's another story. He sees this approach not as something cold on his part, but as a genuine curiosity to learn about you and a growing affection for everything that comes with loving you.
❝Fascinating… Your emotions fluctuate like an unstable electrical field. Let me help you stabilize it.❞ He said this as if he weren't already jotting down notes on the ideas that were popping into his head.
—Tesla's not particularly good with his emotions, leaning more towards the rational side of his brain. However, that doesn't stop him from giving his all to be there for you when you need him. Learning to hug you, awkwardly enough, it must be admitted, when you get shy or nervous. If you ask him, he'll say he's improvising as he goes along, which is quite sweet of him.
—His talent for invention is as clear as the sky, so much so that he found in it the brilliant possibility of dedicating little things to you to make you smile during your relationship. They may seem like useless objects at first glance, but their intentions are adorable: a light that seems to change colour based on your current mood, an automaton programmed only to bring you flowers at certain times…
—Don't be bothered if you see him taking notes when your emotional changes lead to anger. Tesla's not trying to study you like an experiment, not at all, but he still likes to write down what he sees and what makes you react in certain ways so he can learn to understand you better in the long run. He has a specific notebook just about you, noting everything from why you got angry one summer afternoon to how you cried in April over a blooming flower in your garden.
—In another note, you can find him more than once looking at you intently as if you were living proof that humanity deserves to exist. Your inherent sweetness and vibrant emotions deeply inspire him to fight for the cause for which he'd later be recruited, at Ragnarok.
❝If humanity can create hearts like yours.❞ His eyes seemed to shine with an undeniable love you had never seen in them before. ❝Then our future is bright!❞ He raised his fist to the sky, smiling more radiantly than the sun itself.

˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ RAE'S NOTE. third part of my petnames posts for one piece, this time with some of the lovely ladies, which i love too much not to have posted anything about them already.
˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ characters. nami, nico robin, vivi nefertari, perona, boa hancock, shakuyaku, viola, koala, reiju vinsmoke.
˗ˏˋ꒰ 💭 ꒱ summary. headcanons for petnames each of them would give you, plus a short scenario.
petnames for you pt. iii
—Her choices of pet names are: "sunbeam", "my treasure". She names you according to how the weather of your heart is, quite poetic she may sound. Although sometimes they benefits more her mood and mildly inconveniences yours.
You two were looking at one of the many maps Nami had drew herself. You were lost in it, which she seemed to notice by the clear frown you wore in your attempt to figure out a route.
❝Oh, my treasure,❞ she said with a gentle smile, ❝if you get lost, let me guide you.❞ She touched your forehead with one finger as if marking a point of her own on the map.
—Her choices of pet names are: "flower", "my little scholar". Her choices are carefully picked in based of how deeply she feels for you. She says them with a straight face, fully aware how deeply they may fluster you.
The gentle sway of the waves against the Sunny felt unapologetic calming. You two were reading together on the deck, as usual.
❝You know, flower?❞ Nico Robin closed the book she had been reading, watching you with those beautiful eyes of hers. ❝I like how you concretrate on the pages. It's… Oddly relaxing.❞ Her voice was low, almost an intimate whisper that left you waiting for more.
—Her choices of pet names are: "my bluebird", "sweetheart". She speaks to you as if you're something fragile in that mess that has been her life, a delicate part of herself she trusts to be strong. Don't mind her if she panics after saying any of them for the first couple of times.
It was after another of your many new adventures, Nefertari Vivi had looked at you proudly as if you were the one that made the stars come out each night.
❝My bluebird, you did so well!❞ She took your hands in hers with that warmth and sincere energy that characterized the princess
—Her choices of pet names are: "little spook", "sweetie". Genuely, she calls you whatever matches with her current mood. Her attention comes dramatically wrapped in sugar and gloom, to no one's surprise.
You were choosing your outfit of the day, while Perona floated behind you dramatically. As soon as you pulled out that color she secretly loved, she huffed to herself.
❝Sweetie, that color looks way too good on you. I'm annoyed by how cute you are!❞ She gave you one of her pouts, as usual, as if a pretty blush hadn't already settled on her cheeks by your mere image.
—Her choices of pet names are: "precious one", "dearest heart". We know how she's, so her words fall like declarations. She names you with the certainty of someone who has already chosen you, her most loved one.
It had been a tiring day in Amazon Lily, you two were walking side by side towards your quarters when, out of a sudden, Boa Hancock tilted your chin up with a single finger.
❝Dearest heart… Everyone should bow down to you too.❞ Behind you the Kuja's sisters sighed tiredly at their empress's antics.
—Her choices of pet names are: "sweet eyes", "bright thing". She says them with the confidence of someone who’s seen every type of fool out there, and decided you’re her favorite one. If that's good or bad is left for interpretation.
Her bar in Sabaody was lonely that day, no one there to interrupt your precious time. Shakuyaku, or Shakky, served you your favoured drink as soon as you sat down on a stool closer to her.
❝Here you go, sweet eyes.❞ She smiled at you, looking impossibly gorgeous. "You always light up the place when you walk in."
—Her choices of pet names are: "my heart", "my (dear) love". It's almost inevitable for someone as passionate as her not to use petnames in her daily language, espeacilly when regarding to you. For her, they're a way to express her deep feelings without any filter.
You were on a balcony in Dressrosa at sunset. Viola looked at you with that mixture of mischief and tenderness that only she seemed to posses, a smile stretching at her lips.
❝My heart, you don't need to say it. I've already seen it.❞ Of course, she had used her ability to read the thought you were too shy to admit out loud. She placed a flower behind your ear, not letting you dwell deeper into that momentary breach of privacy.
—Her choices of pet names are: "sunshine", "(my) partner". She uses them for as many things as one may expect: to cheer you up, give you strength, and remind you that you're not alone in anything. She might also use then to tease you, just to see your smile while you complain.
The clearing in the woods had become your training grounds for the day. As you attempted to repeat a move she had taught you, Koala stared at you with her arms crossed, trying and failing not to laugh.
❝Sunshine, that's not a punch. That's a firendly wave to the air.❞ She came over, gently took yoru wrists and adjusted her stance. ❝Once more.❞ And when you got it right, she smiled at you brigthly.
—Her choices of pet names are: "sweet (venom)", "dearest". Given the environment she grew up in, she views petnames as a conscios way to create a real emotional bond with you. You're the only space where she doesn't have to pretend or hide her feelings, which makes her coquette confidence come out.
You two were on your own, away from any prying eyes. You were trying to help her close a small medical kit, yet you almost dropped an ampoule. Reiju Vinsmoke caught it mid-air.
❝Sweet poison… If I don't keep an eye on you, you'll end up poisoning the very air.❞ She gently set your hand back, smiling at you with that elegant calmness purely hers.
