Related to villain reader x matsus idea, who would be the easiest to manipulate out of the matsus and the hardest and why?
OOOO another good concept!!
again, just my opinions, but this is definitely food for thought!
from easiest to hardest, weāve got...
š Karamatsu is the easiest to manipulate, no doubt, no question, no argument. the biggest reason is that he wants to be loved, so heās willing to do anything for people to like him. all you really need to do is flash him some puppy dog eyes and/or a pretty please, or tell him things like āyouāll be doing me a really big favorā or āIāll love you forever if you do this!ā there are lines he wonāt cross, but theyāre very few.
ā¤ļø Osomatsu is also fairly easy to manipulate, despite seeing the warning signs if someone else is being manipulated. itās because he himself tends to take people at face value, and thinking he doesnāt really have anything worth manipulating him for. he also craves for people to pay attention to him, especially positive attention. praise him while you manipulate him and heās pretty much all yours to do with as you please.
š Choromatsu isnāt necessarily easy to manipulate in general, but heās very easy if you know the right things to use. heās a sucker for a cute face and nice body, and heās a sucker for intimate physical contact. there are a lot of things he can see through, ādealsā that arenāt worth it to him... then there are things heād do a lot to get. a kiss on the cheek, a snuggle, a pass of your fingers through his hair? ah... okay, okay, heāll do almost anything you want!!
š Totty is pretty hard to manipulate, although definitely not impossible, particularly if you know what he really wants. heās a pretty skilled manipulator himself, so heās not easy in the sense that he knows all the usual tricks and tactics. heās used most of them! however... heās weak to being given attention, new relationships, fawned over. if you can deliver in things like focusing energy on him and introducing him to more friends, it gets difficult for him to resist.
š Ichimatsu is, unsurprisingly, near the bottom; it takes some skill to get him to do what you want. itās half due to the fact that heās got depression and anxiety, so heās largely unmotivated anyway, and half due to the fact that heās kind of simple, thereās not too much you could offer that would get him to do something for you. your secret weapon is going to be compliments, and lots of them. if you compliment him a ton, and make every one seem genuine, he suddenly becomes putty in your hands.
š Jyushimatsu is the most difficult one to manipulate by far, for a pretty simple reason. heās Jyushimatsu. heās so out there in terms of being almost in his own world, youāll probably spend more energy trying to convince him than you would just doing whatever the fuck it is you want from him yourself. manipulating him is a wasted effort 99% of the time. however, thereās one way and pretty much one way only: become his S/O first. there are a few things he wonāt do for his S/O, but almost anything they ask of him, heāll do.
