Since we've been rping about, tell me some of your juicy JacklexSelph (or in your case, Mirrage) headcanons
Ok, to let anyone else reading this know, Mirrage is my version of Selph. I dont feel up to posting about them now, but I did submit them to @funkyneonguts so you can go there and read about them there, just click on the selph tag. I'll post my version of Selph here latter.
(Edit: I posted Mirrages bio! Go check out the Selph tag if you wish!)
And yes, I ship Selph x Jackle. Or as I like to call it with my version, Mirrackle. Here I'll give you guys the Abridged version of how I see they're story.
I like to imagine they met before Mirrage was freed. Like Jackle was one of the nightmaren that was tasked with fetching them. Since Wizeman uses Mirrage- or Selph as the other nightmaren knew them- as a fear tactic, to get them to behave or else "They will be imprisoned too."
Jackle however, liked Mirrage, they were different. And Mirrage found the Mantle amusing, with his antics. After Wizeman heard of this, he forbade Jackle from seeing Mirrage again. Those two would not meet again until Mirrage was freed...
When they were freed, after Wiseman's fall, Jackle was the only one who volunteered to show them around and get used to being in the physical realm again. Mirrage at first thought he was joking. They thought that he was just wanting something from them before, but now he actually wants to hang around them? Unless he really wants something from them, why would he just want to 'hang out'?
Eventually, they slowly learn to trust Jackle. They except that he actually wants to be around them. They realize that this isnt some elaborate plan to earn their favor. They realize that he actually loves them. And they too fall in love with him...
Now that that story is done, here are the headcannons!
Mirrage is a fashionista through and through. They love changing their outfits, whether it be feminine or masculine. And they absolutely adore it when Jackle goes gaga over their new garments. They always make sure to show off to him.
I like to imagine Jackle did the art on his cards. Mirrage loves art. They love seeing Jackle's art. Because of this, he makes so much art for Mirrage, they could make a scrapbook of them! They treasure each and every picture.
Because they spent so long in the reflection realm (like centuries long), they like touching people, especially those they like. They love physical contact of any kind, whether it be hand holding or hugging or kissing. If they arent touching Jackle in anyway, something is wrong.
However, on Jackle's end, I headcannon that his body is sensitive (hence why you remove his cape, than attack.) And is only used to skin on skin contact if its related to pain. When Mirrage touched him for the first time, he flinched and hissed at them. Now when he feels upset, Mirrage will just gently touch him, whether it be massaging or just hugging him.
Likewise, Mirrage wasnt used to the physical contact of others. When Jackle first gave them a surprise hug, they nearly bit his face off. Now they revel in Jackles touch, and know that if he doesnt hug him once, than something is wrong.
I personally imagine Jackle is a combination of 'just being hyper and mischievous' to 'actually insane and/or sadistic'. Mirrage absolutely loves both sides.
This would be Mirrage in general with someone they cared about. They are insanely protective of Jackle. Even though they know that he can stand up for himself, they'll rip out a man's spine if they were messing with Jackle.
Jackle is also protective, but he's the one that tells Mirrage to take a chill pill more often.
Mirrage is actually traumatized with how long they were trapped, how their senses were left immobile save for sight and sound, and how they couldnt escape. Jackle is the only one who helps them through their moments. Staying by their side and not leaving them until they feel better.
Likewise, Jackle has trauma from serving Wizeman, especially from all of the punishments. Mirrage makes absolute sure to be there for him during his moments, holding him close and not letting go.
Mirrage likes being wrapped up in Jackle's mantle, with him holding them. It makes them feel better if they had a rough day. Jackle will not hesitate to hug them from behind with his cape to help them feel better.
Mirrage likes that Jackle is smaller than them (Jackle is 7'0, Mirrage is 7'8). They'll use his size as an excuse to carry him, lift his head up and kiss him, etc. "Your so small." "I'm seven feet tall Mirrage." "Tiny."
Basically, they are so I love with each other, they could compete with Morticia and Gomez. I said it and I meant it!
And that's all I can think of! I know @marshmallow-biscuit-blog I already mentioned some of these to you. Hopefully the new ones are worth it!
