WHAT'S IN IT? characters: whole phighting cast! (playable cast) self aware phighters, crack, POSSIBLE OOC!!! some yandere/obsessive elements?

NOTES FROM THE AUTHOR! wrote this at like 1am and i have school tomorrow

Self aware!Phighters when you get so frustrated at the game, you leave the game and them alone for days; making them so frantic and worried from not seeing you for a while.

It has happened before—you'd rage quit the game, leave it for a few days, and then get back to into it after missing the characters. It's a cycle, but they couldn't lie that they missed your presence.

But three days passed… then five… then a week… then two.

It was getting longer and longer—and it's getting unbearable for them. You haven't even opened Roblox, where they could feel your faint presence—but nothing. You didn't open the program.

Though, when you finally get back to the game, the rounds suddenly become easier—you always get good KDAs, get MVP every time despite swearing you did bad that round; everything good that was possible is suddenly happening to you. Any Phighter you play, even the ones you refused to play due to being bad at them, you get so many kills or assists.

Apart from that, you earn so much Bux despite not being multiplier events or any special event of the sorts. Was Lady Luck on your side for once? Or were you finally getting good at the game?

Once you've had enough rounds for the day—even reaching a winstreak of twenty, a new record—you went back to the lobby. But… there weren't any players.

You see the Phighters just scattered in the lobby… At first, you thought it was other players using default skins, even though you thought it was odd… But as you looked closely, there weren't even usernames below their HP and shield bars… how unusual. Was there an event? Surely not, they didn't announce any upcoming events—

"[Username]!!!!" A suspiciously yet familiar vocaloid sounding voice rung through your headphones. It was Sword…? But you selected Rocket?

"[USERNAMEEE]!!!" Sword suddenly jumped into your view, startling you in your chair. You yelped in surprise, almost falling back and landing on the floor.

"[Username]! Please don't leave us again!!" Sword sobbed akin to a whining puppy, his cheek pressed against the screen, thick tears streaming down his face. A groan was heard behind his back, with Rocket pulling him back.

"Geez, Sword! Don't jump at them like that!" Rocket retorts, dragging him by the collar. Rocket wasn't being controlled anymore—it was a fixed screen now.

"Sword, you're getting snot all over the place." Another voice piped up—Medkit appeared, with his eyebrow furrowed. "But… I agree."

"Oh, Meddy, gettin' all soft, aren'tcha?" A sly voice appeared with Scythe's sillohette—suddenly emerging from out of nowhere which made Rocket and Sword jolt in surprise.

"Hmph! Where was the player all this time?" Subspace stepped into the screen, with Biograft following behind him. "Don't tell me their sulking was too intense? This could've been solved if I was the one who—"

"Yeesh, can it down!" A booming, gruff voice was heard in your left headphone. Ban Hammer rested his hammer on his shoulder, with his other hand resting on his hip. "If it was anyone, it should've been me who they've been mainin'!"

"Yeah, Sub-Fart, can it down!" Coil snickered from behind, earning an offended huff from Subspace. "I disagree with that last statement, though."

"You're right, Coil!" Skateboard draped an arm around his shoulder, "Because it's supposed to be me! I can do tricks, be cool, and kill other players while doin' it!" Boombox's visor changed into pixelated sweat drops, as if he was unsure about this bantering.

Hyperlaser and Katana were in the background, but something in their posture told you that they also disagree with everyone.

"Hey, shouldn't we be focusing on [Username]?" Slingshot suddenly piped up, crossing his arms as his eyes were already on you. "You all are just scaring them even more!" His voice took on a more scolding voice. Shuriken also materialized out of nowhere—presumably after his skill of turning invisible.

"I agree…" Vinestaff nodded, her gaze slowly turning to the screen. "It must be quite a shock to them right now."

All eyes slowly turned to you.

Okay, what the hell is going on?

You froze in your seat, getting cold sweat and chills shooting down your body. Your skin prickled, getting the feeling of bugs crawling on you. Your heartbeat was unusually fast, to the point that you could hear it over the voices in your ears.

And this was the time where you found out that your game was sentient. How fun.

You're dreaming, you must be dreaming—

The first thing you did was scramble towards your device and immediately boot out Phighting—where the last thing you saw was their hands outstretching towards the screen with panicked faces.

…It's the 3AM air. It surely must be.

——

"Wait—!" Sword outstretched his hand, seeing your frightened expression before the holographic screen in front of them vvwoomped! out of existence, until it was a small ball and turned into a small wisp of smoke.

"…What did I tell you all?" Slingshot's eyebrow twitched in annoyance, "We should've done this gradually. It was supposed to be Sword, Rocket and Medkit first!"

"They must be really scared right now…" He proceeded to pinch the bridge of his nose, shaking his head in disapproval.

"Aw, don't worry, Sling!" Coil piped up. Everyone turned to him, seeing him casually sitting on the edge of a rip in reality. Well, their reality. "Lookie, what do we have here?"

"How did that happen?!" Shuriken exclaimed, wide eyed along with the others.

Somehow, after you've left the game, a tear in the fabric of reality happened.

In the blinding light of the rip, they could faintly see your face in your hands. Muttering about something—some words coherent.

"…probably….just dreaming…."

"…need…sleep…college lectures…morning…"

"They think it was just a dream." Medkit noted. "It is late for them, after all." He held his chin in his hand, pondering.

"Whaddya say? It's another chance!" Coil grinned, holding his hands up. "We could probably get out of this prison, anyway."

He suddenly swung his legs inside the rift, looking inside. "Huh. There's more inside."

"Are we even sure this is a good idea?" Slingshot interjected. "We don't know what's—"

"Nonsense! This is an opportunity to learn more about the player!" Subspace proceeded to speed-walk to the rift, poking his head inside. Biograft stared. "This could further my research and knowledge!"

Eventually, the others followed, taking their own peek inside the mysterious rift. Until the rift suddenly vacuumed them in—their exclaims echoing until there was nothing left…

Oh, you were really in for a surprise when you wake up.

So uhh, Phighting x reader people, may I propose;

“self aware Phighting”?

Like a tag for self aware phighting alongside x reader, and all? 😇

Apparently it has been written before, but back in what 2025, 2024, and barely any nowadays? (Might be wrong here, throw a brick at me if I am wrong /j)

But like I can’t help but get giddy at the thought of phighters, npc’s, swords and etc alike in the Inpherno(? Sorry, still trynna understand places and etc-), that they know that we, the player, is playing as one of the phighters, or “helping them win”, “helping them earn bucks” and etc, etc.

Yeah it can be yandere themed bc that’s most of the self aware au’s anyway… But it can also just be purely platonic or just, non-yandere at all, y’know?

Just think about the amount of reactions the Inphernals(?), deities and etc will have, like it’s weird that an Inphernal acts more stiffly, more… Weird in a sense, purely because we’re controlling them, “helping” them and etc, etc.

PLEASE TELL ME Y’ALL GET MY DRIFT. I DESPERATELY NEED TO READ MORE SELF AWARE AU’S.

Also sos for the clog in tag 💔💔 my brain is currently being fried by multiple different types of ideas and so on 🫠💔

[777sasha777]

imagine that you went to get a drink while the character selection game was loading. And then, when you arrive, you see the sword actively waving at you... I would be so scared...

We need some self aware au crumbs with subspace... 🥹/nf

LIVING THE DREAM — SELF AWARE!PHIGHTING

Imagine this...

It was a nice day to be playing games. The weather outside was gloomy, the temperature just right to just huddle up in your sheets. And what better way to spend it with playing Tomodachi Life with your sentient favorite characters on your favorite game? Though, once they found out that Miis could fall in love with each other... They were somehow fighting over your mii....

In which, the Phighters fight over your own Mii in a silly game.

characters; medkit and ban hammer, subspace and coil

Your computer's light was practically the light source of your room as the sky was gloomy outside. You currently leaned back against your chair, currently engrossed in your switch.

In the screen, there sat Medkit and Ban Hammer. They were both sulking (Ban Hammer was more notably noticable with his sulking) at the lack of attention, with your gaze focused at the other game.

"What are you playing...?" Medkit suddenly mumbled, moving closer to the screen to see more properly. You perked up, spinning thwe chair to face them both.

"Oh, this? It's Tomodachi Life," you replied, showing the screen to the curious Inphernals. You were currently making the Phighters their own Miis, since you wanted them to be on your island.

"I'm currently creating everyone's Miis since I need residents in my island." You fiddled with the game's controls, before showing the two that you made them. "Here, I made you two. I still haven't made the others, though."

"What do you even do in this... game?" Medkit questioned, though looking pleased at the design of his own Mii that you made.

You explained that you basically care for them, you watch over your creations and help them meet other residents. Other than that, residents can befriend each other, and even fall in love with each other.

"Fall in love, huh?" Ban Hammer tsks, as if finding the prospect ridiculous. "Hah, why's that even a thing in that silly game?"

But, as if on cue, a little jingle came from your switch. It was Medkit's mii, with the text "What's up with Medkit?"

And it was the most dramatic scene of Medkit falling for your Mii. Your Mii was just looking at a bush of flowers, and when suddenly just at the right moment--the birds flew by as you looked up, and Medkit's mii just falls for them.

"Woah what?" You fall into a fit of cackles, in disbelief. "I just made you like, 5 minutes ago! How even--?" You couldn't even finish your sentence as you were giggling. Medkit just stayed silent as the scene went on.

"It would be funny if I confirmed-- hnk!" You snickered as you clicked the option "It must be love!" as Medkit's mii swoons.

"Well. That was unexpected." Medkit hummed. He even seemed quite pleased by it. His lips faintly curved upwards, seeing his Mii watching yours.

Ban Hammer, however, wasn't too happy about this. In fact, he visibly furrowed his eyebrows and huffed quietly. "The Doctor? Hmph."

Not even sparing a moment, another event happens. This time, Ban Hammer's mii bumped into your Mii. In his mii's view, your mii helped him up-- sparkles floating around your mii.

"Wh-What? How's that even possible-?!" This made you laugh even harder, your stomach starting to hurt.

"Why was I the one who fell?" Ban Hammer got real close to the screen, trying to press up his face up to the screen as Medkit tried to hold him back. There was almost a pout to his lips, but he wasn't entirely upset with it.

"Well... This is really unexpected, I just created you two, and you just suddenly fell in love!"

"I don't even think that a Mii could have two partners," You remarked, now observing your oblivious Mii as the other two followed behind it.

"Well, if your.. Mii... had to pick one, then it should be mine!" Ban Hammer declared, crossing his arms in a smug grin.

"Why you?" Medkit suddenly interjected, almost defensive. Ban Hammer scoffs, as if the answer was already obvious.

The exchange turned into a full on quarrel. Over whether your Mii should with either of them. You just sat quietly in the background, with Tomodachi Life just running in the background.

Despite their bantering, one similar consensus reached in their minds.

If they couldn't express their affection in the same reality, then a silly game would make do for them.

You sat on your desk chair with your computer running in the background, Phighting open with two arguing Inphernals in the background.

You were supposed to do coursework today, but the weather outside was making it hard to focus and made you sleepy. So, you booted up Roblox to waste the day away, which led you to now.

"[Name], when are ya gonna get into a match? Sub-Fart's getting annoying as hell with his yapping." Coil whined, before Subspace sneered in the back.

"Annoying?! I'll have you know--!" Coil just shushed him, also plugging his ears as he rolled his eyes while Subspace was just spouting muffled nonsense.

"I'm almost done, I'll just add finishing touches.. and..." You scribbled on the touchscreen of your Switch with the stylus before setting it down on you desk. "Done."

"What's that?" Coil raised an eyebrow, walking close to the screen as he left Subspace alone. Subspace grumbled as he reluctantly followed Coil, his interest being piqued.

"Tomodachi Life," You simply replied. "I'm making you and the others for my island."

You proceeded to explain what the game was--basically just taking care of residents and helpign them make friends, or even make them have relationships with others.

"Hm. Sounds boring," Coil teased. You rolled your eyes at his antics. "It's not thrilling like phighting."

"It sounds pointless!" Subspace objected, crossing his arms. "What you SHOULD be doing, is something useful! What about that coursework that you were supposed to be doing?"

In their objections, something happened with Subspace's mii. This quieted down the two as they watched with uncharacteristic curiousness. They even leaned in to the screen, watching the Switch.

Subspace's mii falls over, and you hovered your own Mii to help him up. But in the process of that, Subspace unexpectedly falls for your Mii. This made your jaw drop.

"Wh-- I just made him! How??" You watched as it went on. Subspace was uncharacteristically quiet, watching intently and not even opposing it.

"Pft-- He fell and you helped him up, and that's what it took to fall in up?" Coil mocked, almost jabbing at Subspace himself. Though, there was slight tension in his expression, despite the cocky, teasing remark.

Though, as soon as that happened, Coil's mii had an event too. A prompt popped up, "What's happening with Coil?"

To Subspace's dismay, Coil's mii fell for your mii. You mii was obliviously and peacefully walking, and passed by his Mii. His mii, of course, ended up falling for them.

"That's even more pathetic!" Subspace cackled. "Unlike yours, I actually HAD interaction with them!"

"Oh, shuut up!" Coil seemed flustered, as if the game was directly affecting him. "Whatever, they'll end up with me anyways than your boring and egotistical ass, Sub-Fart!"

"I think not, you idiot!" Subspace seemed ready to actually debate seriously on this matter. "I would be the better option! I actually have fine qualities, unlike a stealing wanted criminal!"

Now you have two Phighters who were seriously fighting over your Mii in a silly game... but it was funny, and a bit endearing.

For some reasons, I feel like self-aware au phighting cast would be great comforters to teen!reader/kid!reader,,, well not all of them would be that excellent at it but I hope ya get me:’D

I GET YOU ANON… I SO GET YOU!!! anon please keep sending me ideas also im lowkey sorry for straying so far off topic here BUT

i have so many more ideas for teen!reader honestly… (i tried to fit all phighters here now!!!!)

imagine, just getting home from school with a bunch of homework on your back—but you decide to go on your laptop/computer to play phighting to procrastinate; usual teenage antics.

and then, you load into the lobby to just see all the phighters on your screen—a little silly thing happens and theyre all like “go do your homework, kid.” like LITERALLY forcing your game to stop teleporting to the other servers. of course, the game is left open for them to see youre actually doing your homework. (but you know they come from a good place.)

you would rant about everything what happened at school; your crushes, incidents, all that! i feel like while most phighters are not good at comforting words, they make it up with listening, like hyperlaser. maybe phighters like coil, rocket (maybee? i guess he’s close to reader by now) scythe, and ban hammer would tease you about your crushes or whatever was embarrassed.

I feel like all of their reactions are funny whenever you especially if it’s gossip—jaws dropped, many questions asked, and mortified ones. it makes you cackle every time! teenages scare the shit out of them now. 

other phighters show how they care is by looking after you—say that you’re playing for almost about five hours, they might pop up and tell you to take a break; shimeji style, like i said in my last post. i think phighters like medkit, katana, vinestaff, boombox, shuriken and skateboard.

i feel like for specifically biograft, it can serve as your personal reminder list, alarm, or anything. subspace really urged you to use it, says that it’s more useful and efficient than your human-made ones. (it’s true. tried and tested by you yourself.)

speaking of shimeji phighters, i feel like they would find a way to get into your phone (if you’d let them). maybe by having the roblox app on your phone, or some cryptic way you don’t know. there’s a limit to how many can fit on your phone, so they take turns to see the human world through your phone. 

sword would want to see everything—your school, hangout spots, everywhere! he’d get very curious about the places in the human world, but you can only go far (strict parents am i right.)

slingshot would revel when he saw the food in your world—when you go to cafes after school and show him the pastries, he would ask all about it; he would also want to get the recipe and try it out for his own cafe!

subspace would want to see your lessons—he would probably listen in to the teacher’s lectures, some other phighter would try to shut him up for you to not get caught (because for some reason, whenever subspace speaks, the volume level of your phone raises. you try not to bring subspace out as often now.) 

but all in all, you’re really grateful for them. 

[sleepyrinister]

may i request..... medkit cuddles..... pretty please... yea.... have a nice day.... yea.... thank yuo..... looks at you with my bug bug eyes

Imagine self aware!Medkit somehow—yet finally—materializing in your world in front of your eyes while you both were talking. The cool air of the air conditioning brushes against his skin, making him shiver slightly.

The first thing he sees is the dark of your room, save for the light of your computer.

And you sitting on the floor in shock.

The first thing he does is rush to you in a worried manner, kneeling down to your side to see if you're okay. You're muttering about something that this is a hallucination, you're lacking sleep—

When suddenly a palm cups your cheek, pulling you back into reality.

"You're not dreaming. It's me."

Your eyes widens, his gaze that was usually filled with something heavy behind, was now warm. Your hand slowly reaches up to where his hand was, fingertips brushing against the heat of his skin—it felt real.

"Look at you... You've been skipping on sleep."

His other hand gently pulled you up—at the same time pulling you closer. Medkit's thumb swiped over the under of your eye, seeing the dark circles that's been forming. He knows how hard you've been working, how many nights you've sacrificed just to get work done.

He knows how it feels.

Without another word, he pulls you against him—guiding you both to your messy, yet cold bed. He pulls the sheets over the both of you, tucking you under his chin.

You were warm—just like how he imagined it.

For a long time, he wondered how you felt physically. How it would be nice to see, to feel you without a barrier of a digital screen.

Before he knew it, he heard soft snores. You were fast asleep. He tightened his hold on you, but not too tight that you'd jolt awake. His thumb was rubbing against your shoulder, an subconscious gesture.

Medkit was sure the others would be jealous when he comes back—but he didn't care.

He was savoring this moment. And so, he too, closes his eyes. The room wasn't that cold anymore.

the other side of paradise — self aware!phighting

tags; may be ooc, made this at 4 am

a/n; inspired by linorinax's self aware phighting post! title is a song from the glass animals

hey everyone! it's been a while again

keeping it short, i'll be deleting all old requests from my inbox. i sincerely apologize for the people who have been waiting for a very long while.

i want to refresh my blog—retheme, refresh inbox, all that—especially that most of my old requests were forsaken related, which i am deattached to now.

you may send requests, the following fandoms i am accepting at the moment are PHIGHTING!, BLOCKTALES, and ABNORMALITIES APARTMENT. DIE OF DEATH will be removed from my fandoms list.

requests will still be slow, i apologize again, since i want to keep working on my fic, 'a life to dream'.

without further ado, enjoy reading!

Thinking about Self aware Phighters. At first, something will feel off to them. They feel their limbs are heavy—something, or someone controlling their movements. Not only that, a heavy weight on their shoulders, almost like a burning gaze searing their back—at the same time, it also felt... comforting. Like something was keeping them safe, guiding them.

Then, there comes the whisperings—if they could even call them that. It was more like yelling at the back of their minds, yet they couldn't discern what it was saying. But they somehow knew... it was cheering for them.

Though, there are specific hours where this 'guidance' fades away, letting them be free. It sometimes made them feel lonely.

Curiosity eventually brimmed in them. Was this force a friend, or a foe?

Sword first confides in Rocket, saying that there's this weird feeling that he's being guided. It felt really weird, especially that he didn't mind it. In fact, it helped him focus more in the Phights, earning more Bux than usual!

Rocket tells Sword that he's not alone, that he's been having that exact occurrence. That the 'gaze' was on him while he was helping Zuka around Da Shop. Sword then wondered if Medkit was also the same, and took Rocket with him to find out.

It wasn't long after that word spread around. This 'gaze' that had been watching the Phighters specifically. All agreed to group up in the middle of Crossroads.

The atmosphere was tense, especially between the Inphernals who had past history with eachother. But Sword cleared the air, stating about the situation they were all in. Nobody except them receiving that gaze.

"Could it be a higher deity above?" Sword pondered, his chin in his hand.

"How could it be? The Swords are barely out in public." Rocket chimed in, being beside him. Everyone else were also in deep thought of what could it be. "Not after... what happened."

"Then what else could it even be?" Slingshot crossed his arms, feeling a bit disoriented about the whole situation. "What even is this... being anyway?"

"I've always felt it...or them... in the sky." Medkit muttered, before looking at a specific direction out in the sky. The others followed his gaze, seeing the vast horizon above.

At first, it looked normal. The clouds drifted, with the birds flying by. Then they saw it. A thin, vein-like outline in the sky. It felt out of place, akin to someone plastering black tape. The more they stared at it, the more it became apparenr.

Suddenly, the sky started to crack like glass, before the shards fell off. There was a perfectly rectangular hole in the sky—except there was someone in the middle. That someone, who held that same gaze, the same feeling that made them safe.

You.

more a/n; aaa i wanted to give the others dialogue but my brain wasn't working nnhhh.,sms. anyways guys pls send more ideas for this,,,

[sleepyrinister]

Wait I thought of something silly for self-aware!phighting & teen!reader…

basically teen!reader cosplays as them and I like to think some of the phighting characters WOULD LOVE TO SEE THEIR CRAFT AND ACCURACY

WHAT'S HAPPENING?! You're about to go to a cosplay convention! The night before, you're doing a dress rehearsal when you're suddenly unsure about the cosplay's accuracy... what better way to check it by asking from the source themselves?

WHAT'S IN IT? characters: ban hammer, coil, scythe, rocket platonic, cosplayer!teen!reader, gender neutral! reader, tooth-rotting fluff, crack, POSSIBLE OOC!!!

NOTES FROM THE AUTHOR! this is really silly and cute thank u anon for the brainworms... shoutout to my friends for picking which phighters should be here for me... my brain went a little dry at this though so i'm sorry it's kinda short,,

✶ Coil

— "Nice one, kid." He seems pretty proud that you decided to dress after him rather than the others.

— He'll put on some comments for you, even with details that weren't shown in game. But he was geniunely surprised with your accuracy.

— He'll tease you though—with how you're not that all rough looking. But there isn't any malice in it, it's just funny for him how you're getting ragebaited by him.

— Overall, he's impressed that you pulled off his appearance, and would jokingly say to the others that you're a "mini-Coil" now.

✶ Ban Hammer

— "You got most of it! Except the height; you're lacking in it, squirt." He cackled, as you deadpanned at him.

— Other than the lack of height, he seemed geniunely mesmerized you got most of the details. He sees the effort you've put into your cosplay.

— He would also encourage you to be more confident and imposing like him, so that you can be better than everyone else in the convention (as per his words).

✶ Scythe

— "Ya look adorable, darlin'!" Scythe cooed as she was looking over your cosplay. She essentially loved how her outfit fit you, and you look like a mini-her!

— She would find it cute that you would try to mimick her for the cosplay. With the gear, she was giving you full marks for the craft.

— Scythe would find it precious that you decided to cosplay her for an event you're going to. If only she could show you to a certain individual…

✶ Rocket

— "Hah, you got it right on the nose." Rocket smirked, even impressed that you made the prosthetic look real too.

— Rocket felt really flattered; you reminded him of himself, in a way—him wanting to emulate his adoptive father's image.

— You sized down his launcher though to make it managable to transport it around, that was his initial comment, you didn't make it big enough. You can't exactly summon a gear out of air, can you?
