Ideal Types
Request: Hi!
I read your rules and I was wondering if I could request headcanons for Kyoka, Hikaru, Kaoru, Tamaki and Mori’s type?
Like what kind of person they’d fall for or what traits do they find important?
Thanks and feel free to ignore!
Bye!
Btw your writing is awesome!
Title: Ideal Types
Genre: mostly fluffy and slightly romantic (it is ideal types after all wink wink)
Pairing: Kyoya Ootori/Hikaru Hitachiin/Kaoru Hitachiin/Tamaki Suoh/Takashi Morinozuka x GN!Reader
Notes: So, I’m going to assume you meant to type Kyoya instead of Kyoka (i thought of Kyoka Jiro brom BNHA), to make that clear beforehand! Also thanks for the compliment! I’m glad you enjoy what I write, it makes me happy seeing that people enjoy it.
Otherwise, this sounded kinda fun! I will say, though, that this will be based on how I see the characters and how they are written. I haven’t read enough of the manga to get a super in depth grasp of their extreme inner selves (if you know what I mean), but I have finished the anime a multitude of times - I think I can get it pretty good, due to that.
Either way, I hope you enjoy this! And again, thanks for requesting!
Below the cut!
Tamaki Suoh
shy.
this man loves shy people.
if not shy, then quiet.
but no matter-
if you’re shy, he can play up his princely role and be your knight in shining armor!
but you still gotta give him a run for his money
(not literally, of course - he’d be willing to drop thousands for you if you even so much as glanced at something you wanted)
if you aren’t willing to push through his stuff, he won’t want to be with you
he wants support, no disregarding it
he doesn’t get much from the people he lives with, so if his significant other isn’t going to support him, expect to be dropped
otherwise, please support this boy.
that, and if his grandma doesn’t love you, expect to be kept a secret
if his dad loves you, though, then you’ve got a new father figure along with a boyfriend
intelligence isn’t necessary, but common sense might be
especially if you’re a commoner
with the way he can be, he needs someone to tie him down a bit
someone that understands how things work
(i’m really just putting this out there now, but every person here loved something about haruhi that would be universal no matter if it was or wasn’t haruhi)
it definitely helps if you can open him up to a new culture, too
he is a curious person, so i don’t doubt that he’d love to hear about any customs that my differ from his
especially if you have a certain religion or ethnicity
speaking if which, i do think that he would try to adjust his mannerisms to adjust to you and your family’s mannerisms
he (surprisingly) doesn’t come off as a player, so i do think that the way he handles himself reflects his ideal plan
whatever happens in the future does, but he wants to marry you.
he truly does.
i also don’t think he would care too much about gender (after a bit)
he means well, really
but he may be a little rough with pronouns and preferences in the beginning
so patience is also key here :)
that also applies to kids and family members that he may so happen to meet
very friendly to them, and very sweet in general
the way that you would react around children would probably be a very important thing, too
he didn’t see his mother for the most formative years in his life and had never truly felt comforted even though his dad tried his damnedest to be there for him
but you?
if you have a little niece that you see every so often and he sees her, guess what?
he’s gonna be all over her
but you?
you would probably have to handle the chi;ld with care
same thing applies to siblings, adoptive or not
younger than you?
perfect, if you end up taking them out to lunch because your parent(s)/legel guardian(s) weren’t able to hang out with you that day, tamaki will be f a w n i n g
seriously
it brings him comfort and makes him more comfortable in his choice
and he also just solidified his love for you
he will be proposing to you as soon as the time for the moment comes
that is a fact, and one that you can’t deny
and one more thing: adventurous
it’s another thing that he finds intriguing
especially if you love hiking
he will pay for the tickets to go hiking on a trail in the US
or to visit a forest in Korea or China
let’s also not forget the many places he could take you to see in France
seriously, he would love it
and he may try to profit off it for the host club
(in those cases, expect kyoya to run the show since you will probably have to drag him away for a few to get some alone time with him)
and when it comes to arguments and discrepancies between the two of you, please listen
you don’t have to agree, which he will be forever a drama queen about, but please
let him get his side off, and tell him what went wrong
articulate what is going on what problem came up, and work with him to find the middle ground and be happy for the night
i also find that he would be one to give you a good night kiss even if you got into it earlier in the night
seriously
so, in conclusion, act like haruhi
(to an extent lol)
Kyoya Ootori
debate
if you can debate with him, you’ve got him
especially if you can debate with him on certain topics
that, in theory, shows your understanding of complex ideas
which presents your intelligence to him
he finds intelligence attractive
that and if you can keep a cool head
he has to constantly handle big situation after big situation due to tamaki and the club’s antics, so a level head would be much appreciated.
there’s a small portion of me that just knows
k n o w s
that if you didn’t even get along with tamaki in the slightest, you’d likely be ignored
like, if you find him annoying, that’s fine
kyoya can find him annoying, too
but if you absolutely hate his guts, you are likely not going to go along too well with him
the two of them are an unconventional team so to tear them apart is to topple the japanese high school equivalent of royalty
that would drive him up a wall, but i can imagine that since they are a team
that you would be dragged into club activities whether or not you are a member
otherwise, please talk with him
kyoya, though driven, is also extremely unaware of his health (in a way that he ignores it)
so he needs someone to pull him back and get him to realize his worth outside of grades and gaining his father’s approval
seriously
bring him down and get him to take a break sometimes.
he needs it.
badly
(bonus points if you can get him to sleep before 5 am!)
one more thing, too:
his family.
get along with his siblings, especially his sister
she has been one of the few people to actually stay with him and respect him
so she is the key here
if she likes you, you know that you have managed to catch his attention
in all honesty, too
your appearance isn’t gonna matter much to him, as long as you can make yourself look presentable when the time calls
i will warn you though
he isn’t the best with emotions, so he may be tempted to buy copious amounts of gifts to compensate for hi slack of understanding
which could lead to arguments
debates are normal, those are safe
but arguments with his might get a little bit...on the threatening side?
idk how to phrase it, really
but i highly doubt that he is gonna fall back, especially if you cave first
he isn’t the most emotionally unintelligent, really
he’s just a little self-focused
which is why an ability to stand ground would be good here
he’s not gonna be like tamaki and refuse to go to bed angry, no
he’d probably let it stew overnight and then fix it the next day (if it’s petty enough)
but no matter
just state your point, allow him to state his, and discuss
level-headed, concise, and understanding are the keys here
especially in a fight
(or go to his sister)
(she could tear into him)
(and it may get a laugh out of him depending on the situation)
(just play your cards well)
anyways, carry your head well is the gist here
intelligence is what will catch him, but your personality is what will catch him next
again, he isn’t picky, more so just self-focused
so be calm and patient, and be willing to see the lines and read between them if needed
(that happens to be his toxic trait, but whatever-)
(and no, if any questions are to come up, he will not be capable of doing what his evil twin did in episode 8)
Takashi “Mori” Morinozuka
i’m gonna say it
mans is most definitely a tough read
like really
but there is one thing that i just k n o w he loves
he loves to be the protector
really, just looking at the way that he approaches situations with honey and haruhi proves this
even the rest of the club at times, in all honesty
so he’d like someone he can protect
(not at all times, tho)
(he is well aware of the lengths you’d go to in order to make sure that you walk out of a situation in pristine condition)
but still-
at least just let him help you
his love language is very obviously acts of service, so anyone that is willing to allow him to do so would be great
now we get to honey-senpai
ik it’s a common thread amongst everyone here, but this (next to the twins) would be the most prominent
honey’s judgement hasn’t often been wrong
and he’s really welcoming, so if you tip off honey’s radar imagine yourself cut from the list in general
seriously
you absolutely, positively, truly have to get along with mori’s precious cousin
(and do note, kissing ass gets you nowhere in this scenario)
that, and if you get along with kids in general
i see him as the kind of guy that would really like kids, despite the fact that some can get super scared of him
he’s really a sweet guy, so he needs someone sweet with him
like, if you have a younger sibling or extended family member that is like
a toddler, let’s say
and you can play with them and make them happy, even generally caring for them
yeah, that will make him happy
really happy
i also seem his as the type to like someone a little more...quiet
not like a bookworm (strictly, at least)
but like, someone that is more introverted
and can also hold their own in classes
not genius level, but hopefully you get the gist
if you could hold a joke and have a sense of humor, too
think a personality type similar to the “girl-next-door” archetype without the amount of modernized twists and gender specification
speaking of modernization
i feel like he’d like someone who’s a little more traditional
not like “stay at home and do [blank]” traditional, though
like...
values family traditions kind
really, dude’s a family man and he makes it very evident
i also think he would re4ally like someone who can knock people down a few pegs when the time calls for it
physically or verbally, doesn’t matter to him
a little fire is always nice
anyways-
when it comes to arguments, expect him to be patient
he will get mad at times, and that’s understandable
but he’s another one that doesn’t want to go to bed angry
he really wants to get to the root of the problem before it can get any worse, but if it means settling for the night and sleeping on opposite sides of the bed, well
that’s fine with him
he really just wants someone to discuss the issue with
that is, opposed to someone who wants to fuel the flames and create more problems
so please, someone open-minded and willing to listen would be great
i also feel like he’d like someone who would really like hugs, i mean look at him-
all in all, though, yeah-
to be reasonable and understanding
while also being carefree and gentle?
yeah, marriage material right there
he really just wants to hold you close to him
(and he wants to please you and treat you like royalty, but hey-)
but he wouldalso really respect someone who sees him as more than honey-senpai’s carrier or that one hot guy that won’t talk
really, someone that can treat him like a person
Hikaru Hitachiin
so there might be a theme between the twins
that being the fact that they would like someone that can have fun and focus on the good side of life
and that rings true for hikaru, really
but unlike kaoru, he isn’t going to be the type to ignore that at most times
(particularly upon first meeting)
if you can take a joke, that’s makes you attractive
if you can tag along with the twins’ pranks?
even more so
(again, particularly to hikaru)
willing to clown anyone else just because you want to?
yep, check that off the list as well
really if you can let loose, he will be drawn to you for it
otherwise, though, what he wants isn’t going to be the most ideal for him
it may take kaoru to point it out, possibly even mori or honey, but he needs someone to bring him down
he can get a little egotistical when something continually goes his way
but when that is immediately dashed, he gets mad
not really violent, rather passive-aggressive and insulting
he knows, when willing to acknowledge it especially, that he needs someone to calm him
call him out on what he’s done, tell him that it isn’t right.
remind him that the way that he is acting is only going to cause more harm than good
help him acknowledge where he needs help
help him develop himself and himself alone
help him come to terms with others, too
really, he needs someone that can take a joke, make a joke, and knows when to avoid joking altogether
(that may seem like a stretch to him, though)
another stipulation:
you HAVE TO get along with kaoru
HAVE TO.
there is no debate here, really
i remind you of being able to aid him in pranking others with him and kaoru
but that also means that he has to trust you enough to tell you anything about him
only kaoru and a select few others know how he really feels, and how he really processes everything, and how he really grew up and the feelings that came with it
so he also HAS TO trust you
and kaoru respecting you and liking you is the first step
in regards to appearance, though, i do feel like he would be a little more particular to it
he would budge, it believe that all of the host club members definitely have their moments but mean well
but i also do think that your appearance may be the first thing to grab his attention
i’m thinking he’d be drawn more to people that look similar to the models that his mom uses in fashion ad campaigns
to be specific, those from active wear ads
i don’t know why, but i feel like he’d like someone who looks like they take care of themself
but really, while that may be what draws his attention, it would come down to your personality
(i really felt the need to place this here especially)
(no clue why but i just get the feeling that the twins would be way more judgemental from the get-go)
to make it clear, though, he may get picky and a little nasty, but he means well
which makes it even weirder when it comes to arguments
there will be days where he will die on his hill of choice
he’ll refuse to listen, refuse to acknowledge you even
possibly even go to kaoru and proceed to make a fool of you without telling him the whole truth
(only for kaoru to pull him back)
he would be likely to do what kyoya might here
going to bed angry would definitely be something that he may do, but i also feel that he’d have enough awareness to settle it just a little bit
which leads to the other side
he can also be very gentle about it
(i have to draw another parallel to tamaki here)
this side is one in which he would be likely to at the very least ease thing sdown enough to sleep in the same bed
i see him as the type of hold you close to him, cheek to chest
so i find that he would be sleeping in the same bed, but on the complete other side and his back facing you
settled just enough to calm the situation
only then would he be willing to settle the situation the next morning
but in general, he isn’t going to pay much attention to you if you don’t have a sense of humor
really, he just wants to relax with someone that can make him feel safe and comfortable
someone that can bring out the best in him and give him space when needed
as well as help him become the best version of himself without it being strictly ‘hikaru and kaoru’
Kaoru Hitachiin
gonna say it again, definitely think kaoru would go for someone with a sense of humor
but he’d also want them to draw the line when necessary
and not be solely focused on humor and pranks
it’s all fair, really, but he already sees enough of the shallow image that he and his brother put on for the attendees of the club
so to only put your attention onto that would definitely make him
well...
kinda hate you
he is definitely more emotionally aware than hikaru is, so he’d be the one to step back and see you for more
your humor would be the signal
your personality would be the habit
and your reactions to him would solidify his interest in you
to be patient is to grab his attention
and intelligent
unlike hikaru, i imagine that he would be more interested in things that are the complete opposite of what he puts on for show
he doesn’t care about how other girls react to him and only that, he’d also care about appreciation for his achievements
which is also what he would seek in a partner
someone who can appreciate him, as well as appreciate themselves
that also applies to grades
he finds someone smart to be attractive
but that is still only something small
he would definitely be the one to pay less attention to physical appearance, too
he would still be picky
(sadly)
but he would also be quicker to ignore that and put more of his focus onto your mind, reactions, and the tiny little things that you do in your everyday life
but i do find that he would focus on your appearance in a different manner
like, appreciating the little acne scars and moles on your face
if you have a port-wine stain, too
that would intrigue him
even something as simple as a little mark that looks similar to one would draw his attention
that and any modifications and stuff like your eyebrows
i also feel that he’d be drawn to someone who is a bit thicker
like, muscular, heavier, has a build to suit that, etc.
stuff like that
really just any body that has a bit more space on it
and i do think he would really like body modifications
idk why i just..do
he seems like he’d like a slight divide in appearance in general, honestly
otherwise he is most definitely going to pay attention to how you help others
as much as he loves hikaru, the way he handles things (as well as a majority of the host club too, tbh) is really not great
not great in the slightest
handling things with utmost patience but also trying to take into account the person you’re helping just...
it leaves him flustered.
in arguments, too, that would be important
he can have a bit of a fiery temper at times, so to have someone that can bring him down would be great
he’d also appreciate it if his partner would be the type to tackle the issue before it gets out of hand
like, he wouldn’t want to go to bed angry but he wouldn’t be above it
(at least for one night)
he wants to rest with you, he wants to cuddle you in bed and give you a goodnight kiss on the cheek
he wants to be gentle and sweet with you
but again, he and hikaru do have some similarities that aren’t too great in hindsight
so to combat that, someone that can handle things like these in a composed manner would be great
seriously
kaoru really wants to spoon with you and sleep well and wake up to your sleepy eyes in the morning, so please-
no, really tho
he wants someone that can separate him from his brother and treat him as his own person
someone he can trust with his worst secrets and most awful insecurities and worries
someone who can treat him like a king but also knows when to get him to step down and draw the line
someone that can carry themself with a good sense of humor but a well-rounded sense of when to cut the crap
