𐔌 . ⋮ imagine megumi fushiguro who has a habit of tucking stray hairs behind your ear without ever saying a word about it .ᐟ ֹ ₊ ꒱
｡ ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ ｡
it happens when you’re both studying and a piece falls in front of your eyes he just reaches over with those long fingers, brushes it back gently, and goes right back to his notes like nothing happened, but his ears turn a little pink every single time like always
during late night missions when you’re exhausted and the wind is messing up your hair he does it on instinct, thumb lingering for half a second longer than necessary before he looks away and mutters “you’ll catch a cold” even though it’s barely breezy like you’re not slick you simp
when you’re ranting about something and getting worked up he’ll do it mid-sentence to calm you down, the tiny touch so soft it makes your brain short-circuit and you forget what you were mad about
in the mornings when you’re still half-asleep and your bedhead is a mess he does it while you’re sipping coffee, never making eye contact, just quietly fixing it like it’s his personal responsibility to keep you looking soft
and the best part? he only does it when no one else is looking like it’s this tiny secret ritual that’s just for the two of you, because megumi doesn’t do big gestures but he’ll spend forever making sure that one little strand never bothers you again
he never explains why he does it. he just… does. and somehow that makes it mean everything.
The two of you likely got close because of the fact that you’re apart of the Z team or even if you work in some other position in SDN
If you’re the type to show interest right away or are a bit direct, I fear that might scare him away
He’d likely be not only taken aback by your directness, but also maybe even a bit afraid because of how unfamiliar and unexpected the sort of behavior is
He’d run away and unfortunately avoid, just not outright
Just keeping his distance– not too much though because he feels guilty for it
Now, if you were to have approached him by just saying that you’ll be teammates from now on so you’d figure it best to get introductions out of the way or by gradually greeting him when you see him around– well that's the best route to take.
It would still be unexpected but I think that Herm would slowly grow to appreciate how you always make time for him, even if it’s just a good morning, good afternoon, or a see you later.
I think he’d be the first one to develop a crush– which then spirals into a pile of doubts and overthinking everything he’s ever done and will do
It first starts when you do a small, nice gesture. Maybe you get him something or even just pay him a compliment
Whatever it is, he keeps replaying it in his head and gets more and more excited at the prospect of seeing you from then on out
He finds himself staring longer than usual, and even makes excuses to be around you
He probably doesn’t even realize he likes you until someone else notices like Robert who just casually points it out and encourages him or even someone on the Z team who just makes fun of him for it.
From then on, he’s a complete and utter mess.
Before, he just thought you were a good person that made him feel good about himself– but now he thought you were a good person that made him feel good about himself who he also happens to have a (presumably one sided) crush on.
Whenever you’re apart, he’s filled with either hesitation and anxiety or optimistic and hopeful thoughts
He gets anxious at the thought of seeing you and beats himself up over how he behaves around you
What if you thought he was weird and never wanted to see him again?
He’d rehearse conversations in his head but never actually succeed at saying them aloud
Then, he has waves of feeling optimistic
Whether it be through Robert or him just feeling a bit better about himself– he suddenly gets bursts of thinking he might actually have a chance with you
I think it takes a while before he finally becomes determined to pursue you, especially after he’s presented with undeniable proof that the crush is indeed not one sided
From then, he’d do small gestures and be the first to reach out
He’d likely try and get you something small that is drenched wet by the time you get it, which you don’t care for because it's the thought that counts right?
Eventually though, I think he’d bring you flowers or even chocolates– very traditional I know– and come up to you at the end of a work day and confess through a long string of stutters and hesitations
You can see the occasional regret flash across his face but his determination to say what he wants to get across never wavers
Then he hands you the gifts and just stares at you, waiting for your answer
You can tell the anticipation is eating away at him though and the moment you agree to go out with him, you can tell he wasn’t expecting that response
Surprise flashed across his face and he nodded along like it was exactly what he had expected
The actual relationship is pretty sweet
Hermy is a really sweet partner and really considerate
He’s so awkward yet earnest that you can’t help but feel endeared
He might still fumble over his words and overthink gestures, but everything he does comes from genuine care
He’s very attentive too
He notices when you’re upset and provides support and listens to you if you want to vent
He’d listen and nod along, even relating it to himself to show that he also struggles with it, afraid that you might be a bit embarrassed by the end of it
He’s not the best at it, but he’ll also give you pep talks and cheer you on
He’s not too loud about it, but he tries
When it comes to affection, I think he’s most likely to compliment you and spend time with you– maybe even give small gifts
He’d be flustered, but he’d be happy to compliment you and go on how amazing you truly are
Plus you’re bound to spend time together regardless
I do think he’d be pretty wary of any physical touch though
I doubt he’d want to upset you if he got you wet, not like he’s used to initiating it anyways
So, if you do ever hug him or show physical affection– he’d be very startled
Eventually he reciprocates and holds you back but he’d never initiate due to him not wanting to wet you when you least want it
If you ever kiss, he’d be both flustered and giddy about it
I doubt he’d ever kissed anyone– both due to his powers and how he’s only ever lived with his grandma without any friends (presumably)
So when you do, it’s not the best kiss in the world
It’s a bit awkward and he stiffens up at it but doesn’t pull away
So despite the butterflies he feels in his stomach, he leans in
He doesn’t know where to put his hands or how to reciprocate at all
You would part afterwards and while he’s surprised you even kissed at all, he’s really, really, glad you did
afab s/o who experiences extreme drops in their energy levels during their period headcanons for jade leech, leona kingscholar, and rook hunt
or; how three very different students manage to adapt to your sudden drop in energy during your period
featuring jade leech, leona kingscholar, rook hunt, and an afab reader
requested by anonymous
see my pinned post or my night raven college masterlist
j a d e l e e c h
jade leech approaches your menstrual cycle and the changes you go through as a result of it with the same mildly offputting curiosity with which he approaches most new things he learns about on land. that’s to say that he will be treating you like an experiment — but also helping you out as best as he can, because while he can be annoying he’s not entirely inconsiderate and doesn’t want to actually upset you
he noted the sudden distinct drop in your energy levels long before you two became a couple, and before he was fully clued in as to what was behind them (don’t be too harsh on him for his ignorance; mers don’t have a cycle like that and it wasn’t something they were taught about during land camp), though he never actually questioned them until you had actually started courting
and the second he learns about the hormonal aspect? consider his interest piqued and your cycle tracked — with a startling level of accuracy… like he can even tell when you’re going to start earlier or later than expected because he tracks your symptoms and the subtle changes in your scent instead of the actual number of days between each period
starts experimenting with different herbs and vitamins and potions to see how your energy levels are impacted by carefully incorporating them into the meals and drinks he prepares for you and keenly observing you for the hours afterwards to check for any sort of change. he claims he’s doing this for your benefit, and that is mostly true as he does want to help you, but he’s also just a very curious eel who likes studying you so… yeah
he keeps your menstrual products of choice on hand when he knows you’re most likely to start bleeding or when he knows you’re already on your period, having memorised the exact details of the specific type of product you use in order to stay completely on top of things. he also has a very well maintained stock of products in his dorm and in azul’s office just in case — and, yes, he times his stock ups around the times when he notices your energy levels starting to dip because he’s efficient
uses trial and error from one month to the next to try and figure out the best ways to both wake you up after you’ve drifted off, and to help you stay awake and focused long enough to make it through your lessons and your shifts at the lounge — and to his credit he has a pretty solid idea of what he’s doing by, like, your fourth or fifth period after you two start dating
will absolutely tease you for falling asleep if you do so in front of him (when you’re not supposed to), but it’s all lighthearted and he truly doesn’t mind acting as your pillow/headrest/bed for as long as you need to recharge your energy. he’s just a bit of an ass and likes to get a rise out of you is all
that being said, he will politely ask other people to leave you alone if he notices them messing with you or mocking you behind your back for being so lethargic all of a sudden. he won’t disclose your particular circumstances, of course, but he will make it very clear that they will not enjoy the outcome if they continue what they’re doing — and, thankfully, most everyone he’s had to talk to so far has been very receptive to his advice and has corrected themselves enough that he hasn’t needed to follow up with them afterwards
don’t ever worry about your sudden quietness bothering him because he’s more than content to either just sit quietly with you and keep an eye on you as you nap in between classes, or to fill the silence himself by talking about his latest terrarium project or whatever he found on his latest hike
your yawning isn’t something he takes offence to either. firstly because he knows well enough that you’re truly just tired and aren’t bored of him. and secondly because he grew up with floyd and has grown accustomed to far less pleasant responses to him sharing his interests with someone. so just relax, rest up, and don’t feel any pressure to perform with energy you don’t have, because jade gets it and is happy to just let you be while he observes… which is about as comforting as it is unsettling, or perhaps more one than the other depending on how accustomed you are to his particular brand of curiosity
l e o n a k i n g s c h o l a r
leona kingscholar is both the best and worst partner you could possibly have if you experience regular periods where your energy drops to near nothing. the best because he doesn’t question or belittle or mock you for it… and the worst because he won’t even try to keep you awake and will just drag you off to nap with him until your period is over
so if you need to find a good spot to nap during your free period he’s your guy — he knows all the spots with the best sun, the most comfortable flooring, and where you’re the least likely to be found and disturbed — but if you’re looking for someone to help you fight off your exhaustion and keep you awake then you’re either gonna have to prompt him for that kind of help or go looking for someone else
not that he can’t or won’t help you stay awake and on top of your schedule, because he can and he will if you want him to, just that he will be offering a lot of token complaints about being treated like a servant while he’s doing all of that for you
if you ever nod off while leaning on him, he’ll just reposition you so you’re less likely to end up with an ache in your neck and either stay awake to make sure you’re not interrupted or (if you’re in his dorm room or somewhere equally private) fall asleep with you. but if you call him out for being so soft and attentive with you he’ll brush you off and make it out like it was just the easiest thing for him to do in the moment
on the days where you’re too worn out to actually focus during class he’ll lend you his own notes to make sure you’re not missing anything important — and maybe threaten ask one of the savannaclaw students in your class to take some more notes on your behalf if things get particularly bad
won’t make a big deal of it if you start to become quiet or withdrawn because of the lack of energy, at most just checking in briefly to make sure you’re just tired and not upset before pulling you down to rest on his chest so you can nap together (and for someone so muscular he makes a surprisingly comfortable napping spot, luckily for you)
he may love you but he’s still a bit of an asshole at heart and will make fun of you if you look particularly out of it (in a funny way). like once he knows that this is just normal for you and not something to be concerned about he has no qualms lovingly bullying you for it
but sevens forbid he catches anyone else doing the same because he will shut them down immediately. you’re his herbivore, after all, and he’s the only one who gets to talk to you that way — especially when it concerns matters related to your personal health
he has enough tact to not say as much outloud but he can absolutely tell when you’re about to start your period because of the slow shift in your energy levels and in your scent. he does keep a healthy stock of your products of choice in his dorm room, though, (courtesy of ruggie, of course) and will casually point them out to you whenever he can smell you starting… and when you’ve changed he’ll waste no time in pulling you down for a nap
all in all, a solid nap buddy and the type of boyfriend you can rely on to have your back and to keep others away when you need to recharge… but could do with some improvements on the whole ‘helping you stay awake’ front (but nobody’s perfect so…)
r o o k h u n t
being the most notorious stalker in all of night raven college, it almost goes without saying that rook was well aware of the changes you went through immediately before, during, and immediately after your period before the two of you became an item. and now that you’re officially together your beloved hunter of beauty is more than happy to use what he knows to better accommodate you even when you feel like you’re on the brink of complete collapse
by his own admission, he can go on for quite a while once he starts talking and that means that you’ll never have to sit through an awkward silence with him — even when you’re at your most withdrawn. but at the same time, the sheer passion behind his words can be enough to disorient or startle you sometimes if he catches you when you’re particularly out of it… but such is the risk of dating someone like rook
and speaking of rants, he can easily go on for hours at the time waxing poetically about the beauty of your exhaustion and the efforts you go to in order to fight it… but if you happen to fall asleep midway through one of his impassioned speeches he will lower his volume and minimise his movements to ensure you have a most restful slumber under his ever watchful eye (and if you don’t fall asleep on him he will be fetching his camera to snap a photo to commemorate the beauty of the moment… sorry not sorry)
he already spends a lot of time watching you even when you’re not on your period, but when your cycle hits you the hardest he becomes almost religious in his stalking and observation. partially because he just finds you fascinating and loves to watch you go about your day, but mostly so he can properly keep track of your symptoms from moment to moment and always stay on top of your needs (it’s cute in a slightly creepy way, but by now you’re certainly used to rook’s more unique approach to doting on you so it should come as no surprise that he’s doing all of this for you)
whenever you decide to nap between lessons or during your break period, rook makes a point of staying close and staying awake in order to make sure nobody messes with you/your things or disturbs your much needed rest — only ever actually waking you up when you do have somewhere you need to be (and then theatrically despairing over disturbing your beauty rest). and he can be very intimidating when he needs to be so you have nothing to worry about when it comes to being interrupted
for as keen as his senses are, and for as obsessively as he observes you in your day-to-day, it shouldn’t be much of a surprise to learn that rook is able to track your period with a startling degree of accuracy. though he only ever uses this knowledge to your benefit by stocking up your products of choice and supporting you when you start to feel your energy drop even before you realise that you’re due
as touched upon previously, rook is a talker. a very theatrical and passionate one at that. so if you ever need anyone to help you stay awake, you needn’t look any further than your darling boyfriend, who is more than happy to regale you with whatever knowledge he’s gathered that day in order to help you fight off the urge to fall asleep. and if you’re in a situation where he cannot talk for whatever reason? well, he has his methods for that too. don’t worry, you’re in good hands
do not let him catch you yawning because he will get extremely emotional over it and start gushing poetically about how adorable and beautiful and endearing and whatever other positive adjectives he’s decided you are that day. and no you will not be able to stop him from doing this. vil can’t even stop him. just let him get it out of his system
as a member of the science club, and as someone that is generally rather talented when it comes to potion making, rook has the means at his disposal to try and make something to help you effectively combat your exhaustion during your period. but as that requires a lot of time, a lot of experimentation, and a lot of trial and error, it will take a while before you two are able to settle on something that both works well enough to help you focus during classes and that isn’t so potent that it leaves lingering and undesirable aftereffects after being consumed… and even then he will continue to tinker with the recipe because he very firmly believes that you only deserve the best
all in all, rook is a very attentive partner who will do what he can to both keep on top of your needs to ensure you don’t have to deal with any unnecessary stress and help you find ways to work around your low energy throughout the duration of your period. but he can also be a bit much to deal with if your lack of energy makes you more prone to irritability, so… do with that whatever you will
varka is a gentleman; everyone knows it. from his mannerisms, his chivalry as a knight, his respectfulness towards women, and his prickly-sweet nicknames, he loves calling you by.
miss, lady, darling, my woman, dear, the list goes on. he'd always say it in a tone that would make passersby give him looks and whisper, 'aw, how cute that couple is!' whilst his arms were wrapped around your waist and he whispered honeyed words in your ear.
and he dearly loves the way you react to it every time. the way your cheeks flush pink when he proudly shouts his pet names, especially in public, he enjoys it when you get embarrassed and get mad at him, but you can't fight the fact that you adore it.
"darling, how about we come over to this little cafe, hm? i know you'll love the drinks there." he says before giving a peck on the top of your head, as he guides you by holding you by your waist, keeping you close to him while you give a pouting, flustered face.
a/n i've been going through my nod krai quests, and bet you did i wrote this just right after varka appeared in the quest.
Okeey, so can you please do some headcanons with tokyo revengers about what turns them on the most??

What Turns Tokyo Revengers Characters On
Cw: suggestive content, sexual themes, slight nsfw, teasing, mature themes, character headcanons
Thank you very much for your request <3
Kazutora
Kazutora is a really unstable guy, and it shows. It shows in his tastes—completely diverse and contradictory. One day, he’ll want you to be a really bad girl for him. Insult him? Please, yes.
He wants your hand wrapped around his thick neck. He won’t ask you to squeeze—he won’t give in that easily—but he’ll definitely be thinking about how much he wishes you would. He’ll provoke you into it, push your buttons just right until you get mad enough to do exactly what he wants. He’s a complete masochist, no doubt about it, and if you asked him, he’d admit it with a wicked smile on his face.
Some days, he’ll want you to act like a helpless, soft, submissive girl. Fuck, he’d love that side of you. You can experiment, act however you want—he’ll eat it up either way. Whether you come at him with intent or pull away with a hint of fear, it doesn’t matter. He wants everything. Give him everything.
Something that instantly turns him on is your soft, delicate tongue on him. On his cheek, his lips, his chest, his thighs… fuck, just thinking about it is enough to get him hard. He could be your candy without a problem. All he needs is you tasting him where he’s sensitive, feeling your warmth, and the way you smile against his skin.
Rindou
It’s simple. From your shortest skirt, barely covering an inch below your ass, to the expressions and the blush spreading across your face when you sit on his face… he’s satisfied with even the smallest things.
Rindou gets turned on very easily, honestly. And for him, it’s not a problem—he admits it openly. He’s that shameless. If you get him hard, he won’t even try to hide it. He’ll ENCOURAGE you to touch him the way only you know how.
What he always loves most is when you tease him. I’d say those are the moments when he gets excited the fastest. Just grind against him, and you’ll have Rindou on top of you in seconds—he won’t pull away for anything in the world, I swear.
Keisuke
Your touch is incredibly arousing to him. He’s the kind of guy who gets turned on by every little contact, every brush, even the slightest one. He especially loves the moments when you grab his biceps (which is exactly why he’s been working so hard at the gym) and hold onto him firmly. Fuck, he loves it—he loves it when you cling to him, your soft fingers pressing into his skin.
When he fucks you… yeah, he needs you to scratch his back hard. Ruin him. He wants you to leave marks on him, he craves it—wants everyone to see that he’s yours. Gripping his shoulders, his arms, his waist, his ass… everything. He just wants your hands all over him.
Draken
Being called “daddy.” There’s really not much else to say about that.
Draken grew up fast, surrounded by girls of all ages, even teenagers. He knows how to give good advice, he’s responsible, and extremely level-headed. He likes getting credit for what he does, sure—but he also needs to be taken care of every now and then. He probably doesn’t want kids, not in such a fucked-up world… so you could indulge his little thing, right?
It turns him on when you ask him for something with that fake innocent look on your face—and he completely loses it when you say the magic words. “Please, daddy” or anything along those lines. Just one word—one fucking word—and Ken Ryuguji is at your feet. Whether it’s to hear you say it again… or to start kissing you from your ankles all the way up to your thighs.
Manjiro
Control.
What turns him on is having complete control over you in intimacy. But only physically—because emotional control is what he needs from you. He can handle you easily, tell you not to speak, to stay still while he fucks you… and you obey every demand.
And yet, even then… you always seem to be one step ahead of him. Outside of intimacy, you don’t fear his dark side. You know how to calm him, you understand him without him having to say a single word—and for Manjiro, that’s more than enough.
You complement each other in a way that’s almost absurd. The connection between you is so intense that Mikey, who was never a man that got turned on easily, now feels that heat creeping up on him just from having you close. That’s why what excites him the most is exactly that—the fact that he has control over you… and that you could take it away from him at any moment, if you really wanted to.
Mitsuya
He loves to look.
Mitsuya is a serious man, but fuck… sometimes it’s actually annoying how he insists on measuring your body, even after doing it at least ten times before. What turns him on is aesthetics—the clothes you wear, the accessories… or the lingerie. That’s what drives him crazy. Now imagine him seeing you wearing something he made himself. He loses it.
It doesn’t matter if what you’re wearing is outdated. For Mitsuya, that’s not a problem. He’ll just tear that horrible piece of fabric apart and, after taking his time observing you, he’ll make you a new outfit. And honestly, he’d love to do it all over again.
Of course, there are other things that excite him—your chest, for example. He’s definitely a boobs man, no doubt about it. But the number one thing on his list will always be seeing you in his clothes… or without them.
Hanma
Provoke him.
Provocation is what sets Hanma off.
He loves to provoke, he loves to play, to mock his enemies—so do it. Play with him right in front of his face. In less than a minute, you’ll have him hard as hell, just as intense as he is.
He wants you in tight crop tops with cleavage, tiny skirts… or walking around his place in a robe right after a shower. Or something as simple as drinking wine and letting a few drops fall down your chin. That alone is enough. And if your thumb moves to wipe it away… fuck, he’ll be on top of you without saying a single word.
Takemichi
He’s honestly… very sensitive.
With just a hint of your perfume reaching his nose, he could already be embarrassingly turned on. But what really excites him are hugs. Yeah—hugs. He just can’t handle it when you press him against your body, when your chest brushes against his. Feeling you that close completely messes with his head.
And those times when you hug him and wrap your legs around him… he’s done for. Not literally, but he panics. His heart starts racing so fast that for a second he feels like he might pass out.
Please—if you’re going to do that again, at least warn him before you jump on him.
Inupi
Flirting.
What turns him on is you flirting with him anywhere, at any time of the day. The fact that you dare to do that to him pushes him right to the edge, and he can’t help it. He’s tough, mostly serious, not the type to act recklessly… and yet, he can’t help falling right into your trap.
Bite your lip slightly, look at him with that shameless intent… and he won’t take long to lose control. He’ll get painfully hard, to the point he has to do something about it.
If you’re in public, he might hold it together for a bit… he’ll cover his face with his hands, maybe a low groan slipping past his lips. But in the end, he’ll give in. He’ll grab your hand and pull you along, dragging you to the nearest place so you can deal with what you started.
Kakucho
Whispering in his ear is something that turns him on way more than it should. It might seem simple, but imagine this: he’s focused on fixing something on his bike, or at least trying to figure out what’s wrong with it.
Then there’s you, leaning in close to his ear, whispering his name along with something completely ordinary.
But that sudden whisper makes his hands tense, his back straightening instantly. His breathing shifts, and all his focus goes to shit in a matter of seconds. He can feel your breath, and that alone is enough. The closeness pushes him past his limit.
Izana
Begging.
There’s nothing that turns him on more than seeing you beg. Your voice dropping, your hesitation, the way you look at him waiting for something… it completely wrecks him from the inside.
Get close enough for him to feel how you tremble with anticipation. He’s capable of touching every sensitive part of you, pushing you right to the edge—only to pull away just enough to watch your vulnerable expression. That only encourages him more. He wants to see you like that, so desperately needing him.
He’ll watch you in silence, a smile forming on his lips as he takes it all in. He loves it. And just when you’re about to stop begging, when your breathing starts to steady…
Jotaro who loves to go on and on about his research on small plankton to big whales while your head lies in his lap, eyes drifting off.
Jotaro loves to come behind his pretty wife, taking in the perfectly crafted scent he's known for years while she cooks dinner.
Jotaro who isn't a big fan of PDA, but if it's for you, he'll gently place his hands on your waist or snake his arm around your waist.
Jotaro, who freezes at night when you take all the covers to avoid waking you and ends up pulling you closer for extra warmth.
Jotaro, who was known for his stoic and nonchalant energy, melts a little when he sees his cute little wife hum to songs on the radio while you make breakfast, your apron twirling as you turn around.
Jotaro, who loves to please you, flicking his tongue up and down your clit, his large hands holding your thighs open as you squirm.
Jotaro loves to push his pretty wife's head into the pillow while he pounds in and out, whispering lovingly into your ear. His hand tangles between the locks of your hair, sweat dripping off his perfectly crafted abs. His black curls stick to his forehead as he lets out one final grunt before whispering, "I love you."
Soldier Boy only lets you cut his hair, and he says it like it’s no big deal — just a practical thing, since the outside world thinks he’s dead and he can’t exactly roll up to Supercuts without starting an international incident. But everyone else in the squad knows he’s lying.
Dude trusts no one.
Not Butcher (for obvious reasons).
Not Hughie (because Hughie shakes like a chihuahua when he’s nervous and Soldier Boy is not about to put his jugular at risk).
Not that Starlight chick (too righteous — he’s pretty sure she’d use the opportunity to lecture him about responsibility and humanity).
But you?
Yeah. That’s different.
He doesn’t even fully understand why at first. You’re this soft, steady presence in the group — always patching people up, always making sure everyone’s fed, hydrated, and emotionally stable enough to not commit crimes out of spite. The literal mother hen to this unhinged murder flock. And when he looks at you, he gets this weird sense he can’t name. Like you see something human in him. Something worth not flinching away from.
So the first time he asks you to cut his hair, he does it all casual, tossing the scissors to you like it’s a chore. But you step behind him, combing out the snarls left over from forty years in a Russian cryo-sarcophagus, and your touch is so gentle he goes still. Like…still still.
You keep checking on him:
“Am I tugging too hard?”
“Let me know if anything hurts.”
“You doing okay?”
And he just sort of grunts, because he genuinely doesn’t know what to do with the fact that someone is worried about hurting him — him, the guy who’s been treated like a weapon more than a person, the guy who’s been restrained, injected, beaten, tested on, worshipped, and feared.
You’re the only one who treats him like he might bruise.
That’s the moment it clicks for him.
If someone was gonna have a blade anywhere near his neck…
If someone was gonna stand close enough that he could feel their breath…
If someone was gonna touch him in a way that didn’t make him flinch…
It was always gonna be you. Only ever you.
He sits there in absolute silence, letting you tilt his chin, run your fingers through his hair, snip around his ears. And when you’re done, when you brush the loose strands off his shoulders with that same feather-light touch, he says a quiet, rough:
“Thanks.”
And he means it in the deepest way someone like him can mean anything.
Because you don’t just cut his hair.
You make him feel less like a monster — and he’d never admit it, but that means more to him than any of them will ever understand.
The Way of the Househusband: Gun Park & Goo Kim hcs
One word: perfectionist. Less neurotic, more inspired—passionate. Look at his fascination for martial arts, his perverted devotion to fighting; if you manage to catch his attention and keep it, rest assured, you won’t be stuck with a loser husband.
Weaponized incompetence? Not in Gun Park’s house!
This man is Tatsu, he is the househusband.
We all know that Gun cooks, hell, he can even make sushi. The kitchen is his domain. If you love cooking, too bad, you’re going to have to fight your husband for space. He wakes you up with fresh coffee, prepared just the way you like it, and by the time you’ve finished staring at the wall and trying to blink the sand from your eyes, breakfast is on the table and he has already packed your lunch for you (it’s an insulated lunch bag, of course). And I’d like to add, his bento boxes are the best. Your colleagues
After giving him a kiss goodbye, he cleans every inch of your home. No, really. He’s in a not-so-secret competition with Goo Kim when it comes to maintaining a spotless house.
When he’s done with his morning errands, he does his usual training: running around the neighborhood, weightlifting, flower arrangement classes with Goo Kim, beating up Goo Kim, studying about agriculture so he can maintain your beloved vegetable garden—the usual househusband hobbies.
Then it’s time to prep for dinner.
Gun’s favorite meal of the day is dinner, because that’s when you come home. Gun always waits for you. He refuses to eat a single bite without you at the table; even when he’s starving after his fight with the blonde psycho, even when you told him that you’ll be late for, he waits for your return. He looks forward to dinnertime, so much so that he used his yakuza connections to stop your bosses from holding nomikai[1] after work.
When you finally arrive, you give your husband a kiss and a hug, like you always do, everyday without fail, then you sit down and tell each other about your day.
Goo Kim is the very definition of a kept man. Just kidding, he’s a proud househubby who sees conventional expectations on men and flips them off while wearing his Gucci glasses. He’s goofy but also very proud.
Tom Lee used to say that Goo is “always messing around. He messes around when he eats. He messes around when he fights. He messes around no matter what weapon he has. He doesn't have a serious bone in his body… but as much as he messes around, there's one time when he gets serious. It's when he's holding a sword.”[2]
After getting married, Goo Kim now takes two things seriously: his swordsmanship and his marriage.
Despite his carefree childishness, like all martial artists, Goo is very hygienic and prefers things to be a certain way. He polishes every surface on the house like he would his beloved swords—and, not to brag, but you could look down and do your makeup on most of the floor and walls.
During his free time, he hangs out with Gun, whether casually, to play video games or fish, or more seriously, like cooking classes, which—to them—is serious business.
Goo loves expensive things, but as a “proper adult” and someone who is lucky enough to marry you, he tones down his spending habit. He always checks with you before going forward with major purchases, like cars or a brand new sword.
He has a tendency to prank you. Nothing extreme, usually harmless, mildly infuriating but ultimately funny jokes like covering your things with his selfie stickers, or welcoming you home wearing nothing but a pink apron.
If there is one thing you can rely on Goo, it’s that he can always make you laugh. A very goofy and sweet partner, he’ll humiliate himself if it means seeing you smile after a hard day.
[1] Nomikai: Japanese. Drinking parties held after work, it's not explicitly stated to be mandatory, but you are expected to participate lest you lose chances of a promotion. According to some sources, the boss/company doesn't always foot the bill so not only are required to drink, you're also going to pay.
[2] "He's always messing around. He messes around when he eats. He messes around when he fights. He messes around no matter what weapon he has. He doesn't have a serious bone in his body. But you know, as much as he messes around, there's one time when he gets serious. It's when he's holding a sword." ~ Tom Lee, Lookism Ep. 344
