well, I’ll be writing longer route posts once I get motivated and figure out how the formatting. And stuff works BUT
Here’s some more general headcanons for this au and the different characters. This is basically the aesthetics of the routes instead of an actual “how the route goes” thing. Also a rating of how good of a parent they’d be
wish I could put a read more but tumblr mobile is a bitch.
well, I think we all know jaehee has some major mom instincts (if you don’t believe me just take one look at her interactions with Yoosung. Or what happens when you say you haven’t eaten, but that applies to pretty much every character)
that doesn’t mean the initial distrust in her route disappears, it just means that she is very conflicted about whether she needs to be wary of this child or she wants to be their mother
so, jaehee is conflicted but also this child HIGHKEY is ready to thrown down and wants nothing more than to stick up for her
very concerned about where their parents are????
they tell her they can handle themselves. she just about has a heart attack because Child You Are A Baby.
10/10 mom, would recommend.
the age gap might be smaller here but they are still a Literal Child compared to him.
the Rika comparisons would be less creepy because this isn’t a person he is potentially romantically interested in, but still uncomfortable because.
this child doesn’t want to be compared to your dead cousin, yoosung.
highkey a big brother, he has not reached a dad level in his life yet.
he still gets blinded in an eye.
best for “wait I can be a good influence. don’t be like me.” moments.
this boy is 100% ready to be a dad.
I mean, that’s just canon?
in his route normally he fantasizes about having kids with the MC like two days after meeting her irl
Jaehee, concerned people will think he has an illegitimate child: no child for u
Zen: this sign can’t stop me because I can’t read
100% dad material, let him ADOPT.
it’s got the Annie aesthetic
the bad ends probably have more of a coraline aesthetic
despite the fact that I Do Not Like jumin I believe he could be a good dad
also has room for cat - child - dad cuddle piles so that’s ALWAYS a plus
8/10. I’d watch a remake of annie where he’s the dad.
suddenly his route is even sadder
I 100% believe he’d be quick to have a protective instinct over this child purely because of
1. His own brother being younger
2. His own Lost Childhood
later in his route he’d have more incentive to push them away, but I also imagine he’d be a bit softer
not to say he isn’t the Way That He Is, it’s just less of him being a Total Jerk All The Time and more like an exhausted parent
not the greatest influence, but he’s trying
TBA when I’ve played his route
TBA when I’ve played his route
I could make a whole post about my hcs for him and my whole backstory BUT instead I’ll put it this way
100% the found family parent that tries Very Hard not to get attached and outright refuses to accept their attachment
definitely attached though
10/10, found family parents in denial are the greatest.
