Hey there!! Could I request Ben Prime x plumber-in-training Reader/OC? Reader could be gender neutral. Thnx <3

(Author's note: Thanks for sending in your request! Hope you like it and sorry for the long wait. I updated my masterlist recently. I added transformers to it as my request box is now open again.)

🔧Ben 10 x plumber-in-training!reader🔧: training for greater adventures with you

At first when you told ben that you wanted to become a plumber after thinking about it for some time.He was conflicted because on one hand he did think you would make a good plumber with the times you've helped him and rook.

But on the other hand ben was sort of afraid about you getting badly hurt and maybe not making it back.Though even with that ben supported you and your choice since he could tell you were passionate about it.

But don't worry if you were to call him about needing his help with anything. He'll be there as soon as he can. Even if it's late Ben will try to make an effort to get there to not keep you waiting.

Ben even if he finds certain information boring before he'll make an effort to listen to rook or grandpa max. When they're talking about certain tasks as what plumbers should do in certain missions. He's doing it for you so he can text you about it or call you if you have the time.

As helping you with any plumber training that you might need to learn. Like plumber weaponry and code on certain scenarios that might happen if you were there.

Ohh! Ben would definitely “borrow” rook’s proto-truk to show you the type of spaceship it is. As the different functions it would have with the different technology it's made out of.

Quizzing you on any plumber training that you asked about. If you're even unsure about something you can ask ben or even if it's quizzing you with flashcards. Definitely buys you smoothies as a good job after a successful study session.

Even if Ben is on a mission or gotten into a mix-up he'll quickly text you about taking a break. Plus making sure to eat a snack since studying can do a number after hours.

I can see Ben as the type of person to leave doodles or a nice hype note in your notes. If not in your textbooks when you open it. “You're gonna do great I highlighted some important sections that rook was telling me about. Oh! Also don't forget to eat / take a break. 💚”

Though Ben notices if you're starting to feel burnout about having to study for becoming a plumber then he'll plan a fun day for you. If not he'll ask you what you wanna do for the day to take your mind off of it.

Cause while yeah it's great you're studying but ben says you should take some time to relax and chill. But he does it in a funny silly way that makes a smile to your face that you can't say no to having a fun day with him.

Random: Gwen has concerningly good handwriting. You'd swear she's writing a font. Very clear, very concise, a little closer to uniform than is normal. Between being herself and her mom being her mom, she's practiced a lot.

In contrast, Ben's is a little sloppier. Not like illegible levels, but his letters tend to bunch up or even sort of merge together so it can take a minute, especially if he's been rushing. He also tends to angle downwards when he writes so his words tend to just sort of, slip off the line more and more the longer they are.

Helen, meanwhile, is much more of a scrawl. When she's writing in print it's not uniform, spacing is variable, size is variable, but when she's writing in cursive all bets are off, nothing is sacred. Her writing implement will not leave the paper, partially just a personal quirk and partially because of the superspeed thing. You can tell her writing on a page from most anyone else's because even when she's moving to a new line she swipes across the page rather than pick shit up and move down there.

Alan is better, but still not great. His words tend to fade out, they'll start perfectly fine and then as they get longer will degrade into a loose semi-scrawl. They're at least nicely spaced and stay on line though. His signature, meanwhile, may as well come put of a doctor's office- presumably there's at least one letter per name but good luck finding it. Good luck getting it to be the same twice, too.

Cooper's handwriting is an absolute mess, mostly because it's been a long time since he's had to actually write something down on paper rather than type it out. Can't do cursive, print is legible but iffy, consistency does not exist. If he leaves you a note it's a coin toss whether you'll make it out fine or have to call him and ask what the fuck he was trying to say.

Kevin, again, does better, in that his writing is consistent and legible, but it has a similar problem to what I give him so far as accent in that leaving Earth so young and wandering so long has sorta pushed things out of alignment. The way he writes letters can be, odd, sometimes. Be writing 'the' and muscle memory will have him put a fucking Khoron letter than looks kinda sorta like an 'h' in place of the 'h', that sort of thing. Sometimes run letters or words together, again on muscle memory or because his brain skipped for a second.

Manny's, on the other hand. Manny has some nice fucking handwriting. It's legible, it's neat, very loose and swoopy in a way in a way that's a bit too ornamental to be elegant, but not quite enough to fall out of the range of 'classy'. Like Gwen he's practiced with it a lot, but unlike Gwen it wasn't out of a need for perfection but instead just because he was having fun. And also a bit of 'people will want my signature one day' back when he was small. He does tend to write large, he'll take up two lines per line on a sheet of paper easy, but he's like 7 foot tall and built like a fridge, we can give him that.

Ok since @anti-azmuth-blog brought up the fact that Ben is the owner of earth, I had the greatest idea: what if that means that he’s Earth’s representative? Like would he have to go to important meetings on Earth’s behalf?

And I’m not just talking about intergalactic meetings. Just imagine he gets a call saying “We need you to talk to the United Nations about climate change or world peace.”

Just imagine Ben Tennyson, this scraggly teenage boy that has a magic watch that can turn him into aliens, speaking to an United Nations delegation.

More Ben in crop tops bc I like drawing that

P.s. Idk why I did the sleeveless one tbh. Just felt like it

Kevin for the headcanon thing

sexual orientation headcanon: pan!gender headcanon: he’s had like... a bit of weird gender feels, just b/c of that whole looking like a giant monster for like a year or w/e and also growing up mainly in space so he feels kinda disconnected from like, a lot of human gender stuff as a wholemental illness / neurodivergent headcanon: he’s got a Lot going on tbh and also he probably has like, cptsd or something from living homeless and without real guidance, and also that whole monster thing. and yanna, servantis3 random headcanons:

uhhh i like to imagine that the amalgam kids made a lot of jokes about him being their “leader” esp b/c he was so like, into it. like, if he got too full of himself, helen would just zip behind him and start immitating his body language. he always knows when she does this b/c manny has the WORST poker face

after their memories were erased and they were set out in the null void, kevin and argit kinda just gravitated towards each other and it really pissed them off b/c caring about others isn’t really something that would work out for them a lot but after spending some time together they were juust like “i would make an attempt to save your life and honestly there’s no higher sign of friendship”

when he was working on his GED it took him a while to study, not b/c he was bad at it or whatever, but because he doesn’t have a lot of self worth and is like. a lot more aware of how little offical schooling he’s had then he lets on

Headcanon: The Galvans have an ableism/anti-mutant/eugenics issue going on.

Seriously, a guy was born with a disabling mutation and he's not just referred to as a 'subspecies' over it- something that, quite obviously, causes great offense- not just restricted in his movements- we're shown he was forbidden from entering the city Azmuth lives in, and was under orders to stay on Galvan B- but once he's killed his corpse is put on public display as the 'natural predator' of his species. That is not something that happens when a culture is cool with and has supports and protections in place for people who are different.

So yeah, expanding off the as near as we can tell canon bigotry at play in the culture- with their clear anti-mutant sentiments and likely ableist ones, Galvans have a long history of eugenics. Reproduction is a carefully managed affair, especially in the cities where it's easier to restrict who has access to breeding pools, and the species has engaged in genetic manipulation to remove 'undesirable' traits from those authorized to breed.

There have been changes to this whole system recently (for a Galvan standard of recent, the first generation is starting to breed) to loosen the standards of what's considered 'undesirable', spearheaded by Galvan anti-eugenics groups, but it's an uphill battle and they've hardly even managed to dent the breeding rights portion of things outside of specific areas.

[Image Description: A map of the fictional world Ha'n, featuring seven major landmasses and a plethora of island clusters and chains of various sizes. The oceans are a pale blue. The landmasses have a base color of light brown denoting desert areas, with areas of darker and light brown mottling denoting mountain ranges and white patches marking snowy areas- primarily high mountain ranges. The planet has no ice caps. The majority of the landmass is marked with large patches of deep grey-blue denoting differing levels of plant cover. From a medium tone denoting grasslands and other low vegetation areas, a slightly darker tone denoting forested areas, and the darkest denoting dense forests. /End description]

After exactly 439 days, this map is done!

Kwarrel's homeworld everybody!

Welcome to Ha'n, first planet in the Fai'r system and home of the Perison. With a global average temperature of a balmy 71 degrees Fahrenheit and a plethora of plants in shades of deep blue, it makes for a fine place to visit and lovely home for its native life.

A planet of easy winters and plentiful growth have proved a perfect starting point for the herbivorous Perison, nearly half of which live a nomadic life in small herds traversing the planet.

[Image Description: Another map of the fictional planet Ha'n. This one features the same water and landmasses and the one prior, though here the colors denoting plant density have been exchanged for around eighteen patches of six bright colors (yellow, red, green, purple, blue, and orange) used to demote political divisions on the planet. On the large continent in the southwest a small bronze colored star can be seen near a political border and a small inland sea. /End description]

Ha'n, since becoming a unified planet, has divided itself into several regions for the sake of better governance. The greatest of these regions- each of which is divided further internally, can be seen on the map above.

Also visible is the location of Kwarrel's hometown, roughly. It's hard to get exact when you're working at this scale. Set at the base of a mountain range and not especially far from both a large body of water and a political border. Raised in a family of farmers, beadmakers, and prospective miners, he stayed in the area until his mid-teens, when he began an nomadic life that took him in a circuit of the region and up the western coast before he finally left the planet in his early twenties.

[Image Description: Another map of the fictional planet Ha'n. Again the landmasses and water haven't changed, but the solid patches of color have been replaced with a rainbow of colors fading into and out of each other, covering all of the planet's landmasses. /End description]

And here you can get a glimpse at the major cultural areas (not, of course, accounting for more specific cultures within each greater collection of related cultures) across the planet.

While there are some traits that are common across even unrelated cultures (there's only a small few ways marriage is handled and it's based more on resources than anything else, for example), the wide variety of inhabited regions have led to a plethora of cultural differences in everything from food to religion. Though, on this blog the focus is primarily on the southwestern continent for obvious reasons.

Random Headcanon: Most of the extra mass Kevin gains in his mutations is the result of absorbing surrounding energy- not just from the Omnitrix and such but also other energy around- alongside digging into calories he's consumed, but also his clothes, to varying degrees, tend to get broken down to add to the mass as well. Sometimes just to be remade to fit what he's dealing with, it depends. When he shifts back, spare energy may or may not be converted back into clothing.

You can tell clothes he's recreated because they 1) don't have seams, 2) any patterns or such they had will be off to varying degrees, 3) materials tend to end up sort of blending together or being replaced with other materials (see: rivets in pants fading into threads haphazardly woven in with the fabric threads)
