The ABCD ask game for devo? He needs more love imo (I don't even know if you write got him)
This man is so underrated it’s criminal. With that being said, hell yeah I’ll write for him! He definitely needs more love
Also kudos to a discord server I’m a part of for
Based on this post
TW: child abuse, light gore
Headcanon A: what I think realistically
Loud and vulgar, but to a lesser degree than Rubber Soul.
He’s had Ebony Devil since he was about 7 years old.
7′0″ tall.
He likes to enjoy a good cup of coffee or tea on his time alone.
His favourite song to have a smoke to is “Don’t dream It’s Over” by Crowded House.
Used to have a zeal for learning languages. He hasn’t practiced enough to speak fluently, but well enough to surprise people.
He’s probably gotten some pretty interesting piercings at some point.
Speaking of Soul, he’s more quiet/on-edge around him, but loud everywhere else.
Tends to clash with others, namely Soul and Nukesaku.
Likes to prank others and laugh at their misfortune.
Once he scared Boingo by sneaking Ebony Devil into his room and he nearly avoided getting beaten to a bloody pulp by Oingo.
Devo just laughed and dared him to go on with it, even making a few requests as to how he wanted to be hurt. Oingo just sneered at him, disgusted.
The “crazy ass” of the group (like in that one meme).
Gets too cocky about his abilities.
The fact that he’s got an impressive body count boosts his ego even more.
Whenever he and Steely Dan see each other it’s more or less like “that moment when you wear the same dress 😬.”
Of course, Devo thinks his stand’s ability is superior.
Devo’s really careful about his hair and he’ll cut your hand off if you even try to touch it.
If you’re very special to him then maybe he’ll consider letting you braid his hair -- just the fact that he considered letting you braid it means that he holds you in high regard.
Respects his elders. . . mostly.
Quite nervous about letting his guard down; his keen sense of alertness is what caught DIO’s eye.
Headcanon B: what I think is fucking hilarious.
He always hits his head on every doorway because he always forgets to duck.
He hates wearing stuffy/formal clothing and rips it off as soon as he gets the chance.
For his orientation at DIO’s mansion he had to wear a suit and tie and he visibly struggled to stay in it.
He used DIO’s announcement for “Funtime!” as an excuse to rip off the suit and he walked throughout the mansion that way, he didn’t give a fuck.
When he laughs too hard, he drools.
He has trouble pronouncing “Sassafras.” Any other word is fine, it’s just that one word.
Hates Speedos with a burning passion.
He would show up to his victims’ funerals sometimes just to see how much damage he caused.
He’s bragged about this to his co-workers numerous times.
He would definitely try to one-up anyone else’s body count/gory stories.
Hence the clashing with Soul.
Headcanon C: what is heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends.
His first victim was his father.
It wasn’t his fault.
He knew his father was a strict man, more so now that his mother wasn’t around, but he didn’t feel as if he deserved to have his milk teeth forced out of his mouth by the impact of a brick just for the tiniest of errors.
Over time, however, he began to accept his father’s view that he was indeed deserving of such treatment.
His father had said it was all for his good, after all.
No matter how he’d begun to find comfort in his father’s logic, there was always something in the back of his mind nudging its way to the forefront.
And it would all come to a peak.
He was only 16, barely starting to make sense of the world and his mind was racing and he knew he had to get away but he couldn’t, he couldn’t but he knew he had to push him away, to kick him, spit at him, scream, anything but he had to get away and he just couldn’t decide what to do and it all just happened so fast.
He didn’t know that Ebony Devil would react like that.
He just knew that he felt the tiniest glint of resentment for his father and the next second the man’s face lay at his feet, his faceless stump of a head smacking against Devo’s forehead on it’s way to the ground.
Devo didn’t know what would follow after, all he knew was that he couldn’t stay there.
DIO was the only “family” he’s had in a while, even if his words were just an illusion.
Devo preferred to play dumb, but he knew about the flesh buds, he had seen countless recruits slaughtered before his very eyes, and yet. . .
It’s not like he hasn’t been in that situation before.
At least DIO’s lies were more convincing.
Headcanon D: what would never work with canon but the canon is shit so I believe it anyway.
Anything to do with Those Three™ -- a.k.a Rubber Soul, Devo, and Steely Dan.
You can separate them, but it’s not recommended. They each bring about pandemonium in their own way, but they’re surprisingly more calm together??
Probably because Devo is their voice of reason (and that’s saying something. . .).
When they’re not committing crimes against humanity, they fulfill their roles as public nuisances in much calmer ways, some of which include:
Devo writing diss tracks for Rubber’s SoundCloud account.
Him participating in said SoundCloud account (or rather, Soul’s YouTube channel) by appearing in his music videos.
They record these god-awful homemade videos in front of random buildings and he and Dan stand around and throw up awkward hand signs while Rubber raps.
Speaking of Rubber’s YouTube channel, he also does those prank videos quite often.
Devo’s the cameraman.
He likes to piss Rubber off by zooming in on random stuff while he’s talking.
Sometimes he feels a bit sorry for the victims of the pranks (like Chaka, poor baby’s on the verge of tears!) and occasionally comforts them with a pat on the shoulder, or his signature, a sympathetic shrug.
Devo’s the designated driver whenever they go to a bar.
That’s not to say that he doesn’t drink, though.
Should they get pulled over he’d just kill the cop and head on his merry way.
(This is just the tip of the iceberg; feel free to ask for anymore hc’s about him! :D)
