Out of the ships listed, who would have Hanahaki Disease and how would it be resolved? Thanks! Ships: Meliodas&Elizabeth; Harlequin&Diane; Ban&Elaine; Merlin&Escanor; Gloxinia&Drole; Derieri&Monspeet; Zeldris&Gelda; Gowther&Nadja; Gilthunder&Margaret; Veronica&Griamore

Hello! Thank you for the ask!

Okay, here we go!

Meliodas/Elizabeth: I like to imagine that Meliodas was the one who fell in love first, so he would be the one experiencing the disease - for a short time because Elizabeth fell in love shortly after. He would be very embarrassed about it and try to hide it, but it would be fun if Elizabeth found out about it and was absolutely clueless (but also worried and a bit jealous). 

King/Diane: I have an AU exactly like this ... King is the one with the disease, no doubt! And of course, he doesn’t want anyone to know, especially not Diane - I imagine this happening during the time Diane didn’t remember about him and therefore didn’t love him back. Anyway, he manages not to let her know (and even if she found out, she probably wouldn't realise she is the one King is in love with). Anyway, the disease slowly starts to get better as Diane develops feelings for King. He barely realises that because they are in the middle of a war, until she literally kisses him. 

Ban/Elaine: I wouldn’t know honestly ... I think they fell in love more or less at the same time. I can see Ban realising that he is in love first so it’s possible that he would suffer from the disease for a very short time before Elaine realises it too. 

Merlin/Escanor: Escanor is totally the one with the disease! And if we consider what happened in the manga, I don’t think the situation would have been solved before he died. But in an AU where he survived ... maybe things could have gotten better, if he and Merlin had gotten closer (especially since Merlin finally realised how much he loved her). But it would have taken some time. 

Gloxinia/Drole: That’s difficult, I can see them falling in love more or less at the same time... but I think that Gloxinia would be the one who is more aware of it, so he could suffer from the disease for a while because he doesn’t want to rush anything with Drole and ruin their relationship. (It would be interesting if things were solved only after they became part of the Commandments because Drole takes a long time to find out about what’s happening and why it’s happening). 

Derieri/Monspeet: Monspeet is the one with the disease, but he is very careful not to let anyone know about it. He doesn’t want to scare Derieri nor to make her feel like this is her fault. This would probably get solved only when Derieri realised her feelings for him. If they survived, I think it wouldn’t have taken long. 

Zeldris/Gelda: Zeldris falls in love, gets the disease and he is so mortified and furious about it! He does his best to hide it from everyone, the Demon King’s son can’t show this kind of weakness (though eventually his father would find out ...). Anyway, luckily for him Gelda develops feelings for him as well, she just needs some time to figure it out.

Gowther/Nadja: in this case, I think that Nadja would have been the one with the disease - mostly because Gowther would have needed some time to understand what he felt towards her. He would be so worried about Nadja’s condition and would have no clue about the fact that it’s her love for him that’s causing it ... eventually he would confess her his love because he needs to tell her, not because he thinks she loves him back. He would be very surprised when she tells him she loves him back. 

Gilthunder/Margaret: that’s difficult ... I think that Gil was the one falling in love first, so he would be the one with the disease. Margaret probably realised she was in love with him shortly after he did, but considering that they were observed and controlled, it wasn’t that easy for them to spend time together alone and to confess - but it happened eventually!

Veronica/Griamore: Griamore is totally the one who fell in love first and spent the longest time without even imagining that Veronica could love him back. He tries to hide the fact because he doesn’t want to upset her, but when Veronica finds out about it, she gets so mad! At first, Griamore won’t tell her who he is in love with and she hates the fact that someone is making him suffer so much. And this could make her reconsider what exactly she feels for him... until she realises that she loves him too and that the person he loves could actually be her.

Howzer: Man, I feel like a third wheel!

Griamore, carrying Veronica on his back: What makes you say that?

Gilthunder, cuddling with Margaret: Completely untrue.

Howzer: Oh, so I am the fifth wheel. Wonderful! *sobs*

[imperiumtenebrarum]

Wise words from Howzer. I don’t think I’ll ever get over the sheer adorableness of Veronica and Griamore’s scenes in chapter 307... now, this is the wholesome het content I ungrudgingly endorse! Just look at these adorable lovebirds:

[moonstomars]

What I love about the Griamore and Veronica is that it's basically the classic knight-princess-setting, but it's actually very original because their personalities aren't the classic ones for this setting. One of the reasons why I ship it

Hello Anon! Thanks for the ask! 

I think their dynamics are rather interesting too, especially compared to Margaret and Gil’s relationship (that is more like the classic knight-princess dynamic). I like how Veronica is always herself with him and Griamore accepts her completely (even when she is basically bullying him) because he cares so much about her; I think that Griamore is one of the few people who are really close to Veronica and she trusts completely. It’s also pretty fun to see a tiny girl like Veronica totally rule over that mountain of muscles that is Griamore! Anyway, it’s nice to see so much variety among nnt couples! 

[moonstomars]

Sorry if I'm to late for it, but wouldn't you mind doing some Griamore x Veronica for the ship ask, please?

Hello! You are not late at all, and sure! Sorry it took a while to write this down

Who is a night owl: none of them is particularly a night owl, but Veronica can stay awake longer. She also doesn’t really like to sleep in front of other people because it makes her feel vulnerable and a bit childish, but she doesn’t have this problem with her sisters or Griamore since she has known them for so long and trusts them 

Who is a morning person: Griamore usually wakes up earlier, he doesn’t mind, and besides he has work to do! Veronica wakes up pretty early as well because she wants to train as well, she wouldn’t mind sleeping a bit more but she is stubborn enough to ignore the fact 

Are they cuddlers: not in public usually, but when they are alone Veronica likes to sit next to Griamore and lean against him, and she also appreciates when he puts his arm around her shoulders (though she has never said it out loud)

Who is the big spoon: Veronica would like to be the big spoon but Griamore is huge so in the end, she is okay letting him hold her. Griamore loves that! He feels like he is keeping her safe

Who is the little spoon: Usually Veronica, though she tries sometimes to hold Graimore

What is their favourite sleeping position: they face each other and Veronica usually hugs him, while Griamore holds her gently, he doesn’t want to squeeze her 

Who steals all the blankets: Veronica, always, she does it accidentally and then denies it or claims that she really needs all of them. Griamore is absolutely not bothered by this, he finds her adorable all wrapped in the blankets

What they wear to bed: Veronica wears a nightgown, Griamore a pyjama or shorts 

Who likes seeing the other wearing their t-shirt: the problem is that Graimore would rip Veronica’s shirt and but his shirts are enormous and Veronica basically disappears inside them. But she can wear them if she fixed them well enough with pins and a belt 

Who falls asleep mid-conversation: both of them! Sometimes Griamore is just so tired that he falls asleep while she is talking, while Veronica is just so stubborn and refuses to go to sleep even though she is tired, so sometimes she t falls asleep suddenly. None of them is bothered by this usually, though Veronica sometimes scolds Graimore about it (she is not serious at all, she knows that he can get tired and finds it pretty cute)

Who wakes up in the middle of the night with nightmares: it happens to the both of them but not often, like basically all the characters of this manga they passed through some very stressful situations and have some regrets. Veronica doesn’t like to admit that she had a nightmare, she tries to hide it, but Griamore usually notices and just holds her tighter without saying anything. When Griamore has a nightmare though she asks him if he wants to talk about it and reassures him that everything is okay

Who accidentally punched the other in their sleep: Veronica, she punches Graimore a lot, but he rarely notices if she doesn’t hit his face. 

Who can’t keep their hands to themself: they are very controlled, but probably Veronica is the one who reaches for him the most. Griamore is just very respectful and doesn’t want to push her boundaries 

Who said “I love you” first: I think it was Graimore, at the end he simply couldn’t keep it for himself anymore. He was super shy about it but Veronica already knew that he had feelings for him. She appreciated his confession a lot anyway 

Who would have the other’s picture as their phone background: Graimore, definitively, he tries to hide it at first; when Veronica sees it she rolls her eyes but she smiles. 

Who leaves notes written in fog on the bathroom mirror: Veronica, usually she writers funny comments like about the fact that Graimore should be faster at taking his shower. Griamore secretly finds them lovely 

Who buys the other cheesy gifts: Griamore buys her cheesy gifts sometimes, he knows she appreciates them, but Veronica likes to buy him gifts too. She just takes a long time to choose them and always asks her sisters’ help 

Who initiated the first kiss: Veronica, Griamore wouldn’t have taken the first step and she was sick of waiting. She asked him to bend and then just kissed him, it took him by surprise!  

Who kisses the other awake in the morning: Graimore sometimes, he can’t help! He finds her lovely when she sleeps! 

Who starts tickle fights: Veronica, she jumps of him traying to tackle him and usually Griamore lets her do whatever she wants

Who asks who if they can join the other in the shower: Veronica is the one who does that the most, Griamore still feels a bit shy about it. 

Who surprises the other in the middle of the day at work with lunch: Veronica! Griamore was working with Gil and Howzer and she just showed up with something to eat and dragged him away. He likes having lucnh with her a lot, it’s fun, so he never complains when it happens 

Who was nervous and shy on the first date: they were both a bit nervous, but Griamore was probably more nervous ... but they have been friends for so long that they soon relaxed.  

Who kills/takes out the spiders: Veronica doesn’t like spiders so she lets Griamore take care of them, he doesn’t mind 

Who loudly proclaims their love when they’re drunk: Griamore, always when he gets drunk! He gets really loud and needs to express his love. Veronica is not very loud when she is drunk but she is more likely to tell him about how much she cares about him

I don't know if we will see Gilgaret and Griamonica kids in the sequel, but if it happens, it would be interesting if they're will be some other figures from the arthurian legends (maybe not the most known or important ones, but still).

Hello Anon! Thank you for the ask, that’s an interesting idea. 

I think it’s likely that we will get Gilgaret and Graimonica kids! And it would be very interesting if they will also be figures from the Arthurian legends, especially if Nakaba has plans for them. Since they will be surely younger than Tristan, in the sequel they could still be teens/kids, so it would be interesting if they were Holy Knight apprentices. In the Arthurian legends, there could be figures that could fit this role ... Anyway, I can’t wait to see them! 

[moonstomars]

I always wondered how Griamore and Veronica spend their time before they came back for the battle against Hendrickson... I mean, it must have been a big shock for Griamore when he realized that Veronica (his big crush as we know) wasn't dead, actually.

Hello Anon! Thank you for the ask!

That’s a very good question actually ... a question Nakaba doesn’t want to answer apparently. Anyway, I can imagine Griamore being very very surprised. He was probably trying to find a place where he could bury her and maybe suddenly Veronica moved or said something and I can imagine him losing his mind. He wouldn’t believe it! But he would be so relieved he didn’t lose her. Anyway, I think he first found a place where Veronica could rest and recover and then the two of them just ... stayed there for a while, waiting for her to get better and most likely acting like a couple. They probably didn’t have the chance to spend so much time alone just doing nothing but waiting, so I can see them talking a lot and doing little things together like cooking. They were probably very worried about Elizabeth and what was happening in Liones as well and most likely talked about it and about what happened with the Holy Knights ... it would have actually been interesting to see something of this!

Mangakas vs. Romance

All other shounen mangakas: Romance is not a main theme of this series, and if we give even ONE character a possible love interest, it might take YEARS to make it canon. If either of the characters is also a protagonist, we will use the other character for the former's character development and give them moments once every 100 chapters, cause we can't mix action with romance--

Nakaba Suzuki: Hold my beer.
