For Shovelry!

Welcome to shovelknightimagines! This blog is created by one of the mods from kingsquestimagines (which is also an amazing blog like this one) I (Specter) am also accepting mods, check the Mods page for more details!

[shovelknightimagines]

Are you all still active at all? I'm a lil obsessed with SK right now and just discovered this blog, and I love your headcanons n such!! I was kinda sad to see you guys haven't posted in a while tho :(

Honestly I'm unsure as well. I haven't heard anything from the other mods in ages. Additionally i have not written anything for just as long. I can try to start writting headcanons for the knights again so feel free to send in headcanon requests. I take both sfw and nsfw ones for the OonQ, Shovel Knight and Black Knight.

Okay because i’m a sucker for soap opera like drama plots: how would the Order of No Quarter react to discovering they had like, an illegitimate child? Would they have figured out the connection on their own, or would they have someone else point it out to them? Would they try to be in the kid’s life now that they knew, stick to the shadows, or just pretend like nothing happened?

first and foremost many of the knights (with a few exceptions) would be asking themselves WhEn?! -mod mole

King Knight: It's most likely that the illegitimate child ain't even his since during KoC King Knight was very disconnected with his Crew unless it was about him of course. And any woman would try to raise her and her child's status if the child resembles their King. Even though King Knight would take them in. He, by all means, wouldn't be affectionate in the slightest especially if he has a lover at the time. 

Specter Knight: Most likely has one from the time he was alive so if he found out and finds them he would act as if he doesn't care (but actually cares deeply, their his blood and flesh after all). He would try to get closer to then to watch over them as they likely don't recognize him with him being dead and all. But if they show even in the slightest that they're uncomfortable with Specter around he would stick to watching and protecting them from the shadows.

Plague Knight: The one that is the most shocked about finding out, as he likely never had that emotional connection and is way too shy to flirt with someone to even get to that point. So I suspect the child is an alchemical homunculus made by another alchemist using their and Plague's DNA how they got his is a mystery to even him. But he would keep the child around if it wants that. (If you watch Plague and the child from afar you can see he is a good papa bird.)

Treasure Knight: I sincerely hope the Mother isn’t after Money cause she would get nothing (unless he can confirm the math that is). Now if he can then he will support his Child but never allow them on the Iron Whale unless supervised by him or one of his trusted minions when the child is older.

Mole Knight: They were probably a member of his dig team and also likely not from Mole Knight but he would still take some part of the responsibility as the woman wouldn't be able to dig anymore so she would have to get fired or something similar that means she wouldn't have an income. But Mole Knight cares for her and the child in case the real father is gone.

Tinker Knight: Another Knight where it's unlikely that the child is his, he is too much of a in my opinion but by no means would he dislike the idea of having a child just… his workshop isn't exactly the safest place to be even for adults. The best i can see that he builds himself a child of his own.

Propeller Knight: Least surprised in all honesty, he likely had many partners before even if they didn't go that far. He is a good dad supporting his kid/s and their mother/s. (who knows how many he has)

Polar Knight: I can't see him having an illegitimate child in all honesty. Maybe a wife long ago and one or two children that he helped raise that are now independent adults that sometimes visit him. But as Shovel Knight said he had an oath so I just can't see him doing that.

Would it be bad if I asked for Specter Knight x Gall HC's? You guys don't have to if you don't want to. Please, and thank you so much in advance.

• Specter is, for lack of a better term, extremely emotionally constipated. He was like that well before he died though- it’s always been hard for him to truly open up to anyone. Especially romantically, but Gall really has his own special way of getting people out of their shells.

• Since that first kiss of death Specter’s been Feeling. He’s not happy about that at all. 

• Specter has a huge fear of getting close to literally everyone, he thinks he’s cursed and that anyone who associates with him is doomed to a grim fate, so when Gall tries to get closer to him and expresses romantic interest it scares him really badly. (He doesn’t show it though, he kinda just shuts down and acts stoic as usual.)

• Gall is smart, he catches on to this. He doesn’t know exactly what happened, but he knows Specter lost someone and is haunted by it. 

• He tries to pry sometimes, he can’t help it he's naturally curious, but really doesn’t want to overstep boundaries or do anything that could drive a wedge between him and Specter.

• Gall is into cheesy stuff, and Specter can’t figure out if it's ironic or not. He doesn’t mind the roses and grand movie kisses and Gall sweeping him off his feet to carry him bridal style when they’re alone but you’ll never hear him admit it. 

• When people are around it's a whole other story, mostly Specter blushing, flustered, stuttering to be put down. Gall thinks it’s cute.

• Specter can kind of be “on and off” about dating and being in a relationship. Gall understands and always tells him something along the lines of they have an eternity to figure things out.

• Specter claims he hates people touching him but it's because he's extremely touch starved. Anytime anyone makes a simple gesture he feels 300 emotions at once. It scares and confuses him so badly.

• Gall tries the “do lots of romantic things all at once” approach at first and it kinda worked? Once Specter showed any signs of being a little bit interested Gall was like “i love you bitch…. I’ll never stop loving you, biiiiitch” constantly. 

• Specter! Really likes holding hands!!! It makes him melt and it's not too much contact that freaks him out, but enough that it scratches the “contact with another person” itch. 

• Gall is happy just standing around holding Specter’s hands or sitting together he’s just happy being with him.

S/O finds out what King Knight did in KoC and confronts him about it, post-SoH.

It depends if you meet him during or after KoC. If you meet him after SoH you would likely never even know that the events of KoC took place. 

Otherwise, if you meet him during KoC he likely recruited you somewhere near the beginning of his journey (or you where on the airship with the Bard and Cooper) and through the journey the more he began talking to you the more your opinion started mattering to him. So if you ever confronted him he would actually listen to you (congrats he doesn't even listen to his mother about his behavior) and try to change his way...like actually listening to the judges and taking the advice. But I digress you would be one of the, if not the only person that King Knight would willingly listen to and maybe just maybe you could change fates course.

Is it OK if I can request some fluffy Shovel Knight x Shield Knight headcanons?

Shovel Knight keeps his helmet on pretty much all the time, so to show affection he’ll do a gentle little head bump. (like how mandalorians show affection lol)

Shield Knight will often return this gesture with a small kiss on the forehead, which makes Shovel very flustered but he loves it

They’re the number one dynamic duo in the whole Valley- very renowned for their flawless teamwork and how well they get along and just go so well together, they’re pretty much everyone’s Couple Goals. 

When they cuddle Shovel tries his best to be big spoon but he is so very very tiny. Its cute and Shield loves it. 

Sometimes when they’re standing next to each other talking to people or just casually hanging out somewhere, Shield will rest her arm on Shovel’s head and lean against him. She’s always done it and Shovel really doesn’t mind/notice when she does. 

Anytime they get large sums of treasure from adventures both of them split it in ways where the other will have more. Shield will do her own personal inventory and account to give Shovel around 70% or so, maybe more, and Shovel will do the same on his own. This always makes them laugh and they settle on half and half in the end. (Even tho most of the time they end up buying stuff for each other with their money)

Can be kinda sappy!!! Not like romantic sappy like Propeller Knight or anything its just they’re so sickly sweet and cute together it gives a sappy vibe. 

Going off that they have some cute nicknames, like treasure, my shield, my protector, etc etc. Cute knightly adventure related stuff.

Mod Tinker

Hiya! This is Mod Tinker! :D I’ll be writing fics! I’m very excited to be a part of something awesome! 

[shovelknightimagines]

What would the OoNQ get for their S/O's birthday?

King Knight: Throws a lavish party, a whole ball and banquet just for them. Gives them very expensive presents and anything they ask for. Of course, if that’s something they’re comfortable with. If they aren’t King Knight is perfectly happy to throw a small private party.

Specter Knight: Something sentimental, something that means a lot to both he and his S/O. Says it's "no big deal" when thanked. Doesn’t make a big show of it.

Plague Knight: Makes a potion or gives high quality potion ingredients, Plague's S/O is more than likely someone that's into alchemy as well. Either that or goes out and does something dangerous to get something big that makes a huge "I love you" statement.

Treasure Knight: Obviously gives treasures. Not just gold and gems but things his S/O would consider treasures or things special to them. They're one of his greatest treasures after all, so he does anything to make sure they know it.

Mole Knight: He gives relics and treasures and other neat things he's found during his excavations. He always tries really hard to give his S/O the shiniest and coolest things he finds every year.

Tinker Knight: Makes them something of course! Some invention he's been fretting over and tinkering with in secret the whole year for their special day, something that was inspired heavily by his S/O.

Propeller Knight: Has an entire romantic evening planned with dinner, dancing and seeing the most beautiful sights the Valley has to offer. He of course gets them something cheesy romantic like fine jewelry and fancy chocolates and flowers.

Polar Knight: Something simple and from the heart. He's not really one to show outward emotions, but he really deeply cares for his S/O and gives them something they've always wanted. He makes a point to be near them all day and trying things they like.

[shovelknightimagines]

How would each of the OONQ propose?

King Knight: Would he make it a public event? Surprisingly no at least not at first, he first wants to make sure you say yes before he asks for your hand in front of his court. Alone his proposal is soft, heartfelt showing just how much he loves you, in his court while it is still genuine he has to hold up to his image as a strong, courageous King.

Specter Knight: Skull ring? Skull ring. He might be easily embarrassed but he is the pinnacle of serious when he stood in front of you, the full moon behind him, one hand clutching the ring and the other his locket...ready to give both to you, his heart and soul.

Plague Knight: He would go and make a magical ring with alchemy!...and then not use it for months due to his nerves failing him each time he tried to propose to you. It took a lot of cuddles and kisses under the stars for him to shyly ask you.

Treasure Knight: He wouldn't shy away from any cost, only the best ring fits his S/O after all, as in his words, "a gem as radiant as my love for you", be prepared for a beautiful dinner on top of the Iron Whale at sunset other than that he pulls the cliche romantic for his proposal.

Mole Knight: He would have made the ring himself, digging up a gem that matches your eyes and forging the base to set it into. As for the proposal, he would take you out for a picnic under the full moon and starlight before popping the question.

Tinker Knight: He would build a robot just for proposing to you. He is a man of science after all. You would expect him to be confident but nope he is a blushing anxious mess waiting for your answer.

Propeller Knight: The hopeless romantic would go with the classic candlelight dinner, watching the sunset before getting on one knee.

Polar Knight: He would most likely be either very blunt by just asking you to marry him or maybe get the help of the Spinwolves cause who doesn't love a puppy playing wingman.

Hello everyone! This is mod Treasure! I’ll be taking fic, hc, and other requests. 

And thank you to the other mods for letting me join!

[shovelknightimagines]

Hey guys, Mod Plague and I talked about the blog and we have decided to get new mods so if any of you guys want to join us feel free to send in an application

[shovelknightimagines]

Can I get some Bard hc’s?

He will serenade you...a lot

Constantly calls you nicknames like my Muse, Songbird, etc.

writes songs about you, your deeds and basically be your personal bard the only fee he asks for is your love

would love to travel with you if you choose to accompany him on his bard wandering but he would never dare to force you and he actually loves the thought of his S/O waiting for him in their shared home

god forbid if you are an adventurer he would follow you and sing of your great deeds as they happen

but if your not...while he doesn't look like it he isn't weak so he will be your knight in tight brown leggings

[shovelknightimagines]

How would the knights react to getting caught in the rain with their SO?

King Knight: Annoyed at getting wet until he sees you goofing off in the rain (he will dance with you in the rain if it means kisses).

Specter Knight: He will drape his cape over you so you don't get wet maybe even pick you up and run to keep you dry.

Plague Knight: He probably coated himself in a water-resistant substance so he is quite happy to be able to test it…Yes, he also gives you the same thing he used so you stay dry and can play in the rain for a long time. All he asks for is a kiss and a dance.

Treasure Knight: He lives in a vessel that is always at least halfway filled with water so he doesn't care about getting wet, but he is worried about you ending up sick so he will get you dry quickly.

Mole Knight: He is annoyed and in slight pain from the rain sizzling in his flames but he doesn't complain when he sees you play in the rain.

Tinker Knight: Since you two don't go out much anyway it's more likely that you two got caught in the rain while delivering some machines so he would have a robot with you guys holding umbrellas before you even realized that it started to rain.

Propeller Knight: Dancing in the rain? Kissing in the Rain? He can spin any situation into a Romantic one that leaves you blushing.

Polar Knight: He just silently looks up being used more to snow and ice then rain before looking at you and what you want to do in this situation if you want to play he won't stop you and smile at you, but if you want to go inside he just hoists you up and buries you into his fur trim to keep you dry while he walks.
