HC + Self-image.
send me ‘ hc ‘ + a word and i’ll write a headcanon about it regarding myself.
Classic move for me to ask myself about what kind of headcanon I would have regarding my own self-image. 2020 is the year of being openly vulnerable through the guise of seeming ironic and self-aware at the same time, so I might as well entertain this.
Google defines “self-image” as "the idea one has of one's abilities, appearance, and personality.” I will be assuming that this is the definition most people think of when they read the term “self-image,” because as we know, Google never lies.
I make it pretty obvious that I see myself as an omniscient, omnipotent asshole of a god who has a pretty sick sense of fashion. My abilities are fucking unmatched. Though I consider myself an asshole, I don’t condemn myself for it. Everyone else on this website might find fault with my appreciation for capes, but I don’t really care. From this very brief evaluation, we can see that my self-image is pretty good.
On the other hand, if one were to spend more time exploring my personality configuration as an asshole, one could likely tease out threads of more threatening, self-loathing strains of thought that could unravel my entire persona and reveal that my self-image is excruciatingly poor.
Just kidding. But imagine if that was real.
