I request general headcanons for ej from you because you have a very unique take on him and I NEED more information
i've lowk been putting it off because even i dont really know whats going on with that mf. most of my hcs for him surround making my super-de-duper cool design for him work. but, that only goes so far :P
anywayz
eyeless jack general headcanons, warnings forrrr death, BODY HORROR, violence, cannibalism, hes a freaky monster man and i love discription more than anything in this world i should have written classic gothic liturature i'll take those pages to describe that staircase.
Backstory Stuffz.
jack nyras went to medical school in a small town on the west coast, the type of town where walmart was an event and highschoolers had parties in the woods instead of anywhere else.
he was a good student, pretty self concious and focused on his studies, no one ever got to contact his family, his only emergency contact was his one friend at school, and they went missing with him.
the eyeless was a demon haunting the woods near the college he went to. one day he was dragged out into the woods by his friend and his friends girlfriend, who wanted someone who had a gun liscense to come with lol.
the three of them found a spooky cabin and ended up separated for a few minutes. in these few minutes jack couldnt ignore the scary slightly bloody tufts of fur on the ground leading towards one of the rooms.
the eyeless was there dying, and quickly inhabited jacks body. it broke most of his bones, because it had to literally queeze itself into jacks meatsuit.
he killed his friends and used their skin as grafts to stop himself bleeding out.
as i said, his body is wrong, the skin twists unnaturally, sometimes his bones break randomly (they refuse instantly but its even less right) hes surprisingly fragile in his more 'human' form, but only in comparison to the eyeless.
jack and the eyeless are mostly seperate personalities, but they bleed over. jack still has murderous intent as a human and the monster does sort of try to go along with jacks human wishes. he didnt mean to kill his friends it was a matter of survival.
jack the human has a sort of vision, hes extremely color blind and has almost no depth perception. but he can sort of see shapes. the eyeless is blind fully.
jack killed a whole bunch of people in town the first year after he was inhabited, it created rumors and panic. the main theory is that the cannibal who was killing people in town also killed the group of college students who went into the forest. :P
he was found by slenderman pretty soon after. slenderman thought his medical training (he was a senior in med school at 25 with experience in surgery and injury medicine) would be helpful, and the eyeless plays surprisingly nice with slenderman, as long as its fed.
jack made his own mask because he didnt want to be caught on camera, it got dirty over the years and thats what the streaks are from,
General:
jacks hair is a mess the first few years after he was inhabited, he had been keeping his hair pretty short for school, just not wanting to put too too much time into it, but after he was turned it turned into baisically a large dreadlock on his head. (once he was a bit more in his own mind he cut all his hair off, and now just keeps dreds.
his teeth arent particularly sharp but they do grow like a rodents, he chews on bark to keep them not too long (this makes his breath smell like wood and sap)
he cannot digest anything but raw meat, but most liquids are fine, he relishes a vegetable broth. (he was mostly vegetarian when he was alive(he made eceptions for mainly just beef jerky.))
the eyeless doesnt really have a face, whats connected to his neck is almost human, its eyes leak dark blood (it got stabbed by some think a few times)
its mouth is in its chest, it pushes things into its mouth whole and what cant be digested turns into its very soft fur (it cant create keratin)
long tail, works like a monkeys more than anything else tho. <- he has it in human form too! as well as ears sort of like a lambs
the eyeless theoretically intelegent, think noface from spirited away.
jack has a really really high body temp (this means he genuinely never gets sick none of the bacteria can live in his body)
he has a crazy high vertical. dont ask me why.
he shambles around more than anything, hes good at traversing places he knows, but put him in a different situation and hes running into legit every single thing.
the monster prefers to sleep in piles of bodies or in trees. jack sometimes wakes up in a nest of dead people, he will stink the whole day after.
the transformation is excruciating, all his bones rebreak and his skin becomes raw from having leathery and furry skin. he grows and his biology drastically changes. once he comes back it takes about an hour before he can move at all.
he doesnt have very much control of when he transforms into the eyeless, he can request it to take over though and sometimes it works. mostly the eyeless just takes over when he hasnt eaten in a bit.
he can pur, he doesnt know when he does it tho.
his hands are stained black.
the horror of broken morality in the exchange for continued life in suffering and pain.
he doesnt wear real leather or wool. hes still trying to be as vegan as possible.
also he does have three tongues (if you saw my sketch of the eyeless, the tongues in his chest are in his mouth too lol:P
Romantic:
he thinks you're too good for him, no matter who you are or whatever, hes a monster in his own eyes, he thinks you should run away from him, prefferably kill him, and move on with your life.
he is a cuddler, in either form. hes all over you.
he will cut his fingernails and take care of his hair for you.
when yall met he stole some poor guys silk pillowcase to stop fucking up his shit when he slept lol.
he carries those clear super minty tabs to fix his breath for you.
he keeps his mask on around you, get used to kissing the mask if you want it. he is genuinely quite scary under it.
he stays away from you at first right after hes been the eyeless, because he feels bad making you see him in such a broken and battered state.
when you guys meet he legit begs the eyeless to leave u the fuck alone if you're not a creep, praying to the demon before he goes to bed like i pray my soul the lord to keep style.
knows how to dance in a few ways, he tries to teach you if you dont know how, but hes a bad teacher. so he sort of just leads you in partner dances and has given up on anything else.
he wants you to wear his clothes, really bad actually.
he will sew your names into his clothes, the inside of his sleeves or the waistband of his pants.
hold his tail like a hand. do it. now not later.
if you rub his ears he starts purring.
he likes gingers. fight me.
he brings you classic romantical gifts, flowers chocolates teddy bears, that type of stuff, and also fancy hats. idk, it just feels right.
listens and watches you sleep until he falls asleep with you.
cleans his mask of the blood before coming over,
also tries really really hard to unstain his hands, bleaching them and shit, to try and look more normal.
knows how to cook and will do it for you
datenight looks like a homecooked meal by him (he makes a mean vodka pasta), a movie, and a cleaned living room + kitchen. and some flowers.
he likes when you hold his hand because it means he has to focus less on his surroundings.
im too tired to continue, you get the gist.
please ask me questions i like talking about the eyeless. also give me drawing ideas in my inbox. i like drawing. god im tired. i need to mentally prep for the iv tomorrow. my moms fuckass friend is trying to scare me abt my wisdom teeth on purpose and its pissssing me offff
