I've seen a lot of hcs that Venti would be a needy, whiny mess when he gets sick, but I disagree. Here are my headcanons about sick Venti.
-Doesn't get sick super often since he is an Archon, but it happens occasionally since he's in a human body
-If it's minor, he continues with his usual schedule (performances, drinking, hanging out with friends, going on walks, etc.)
-People sometimes notice his raspy voice or runny nose, and he blames it on allergies or overuse of his voice
-When it interferes with his singing, he decides to do something about it: drinking tea. However, he refuses to take medicine because he's too cool for school
-If it's actually serious, he avoids people altogether and seeks out Dvalin for comfort. Sleeps for a few days, then bounces back semi-recovered.
-Brushes off most people's concern, unless he really trusts them, in which case he would let them take care of him as they like
I'm sick as shit and want Scara to take care of me, send tweet.
The afternoon was lonely as you shiver underneath your blanket, it was the weird feeling of being way too cold and somehow still burning up. Your mom already brought you the medicine to take while she does her work downstairs.
The urge to puke rises up your stomach as you shoot up from the bed in panic, thankfully your mom had already placed a basin besides your bed.
You felt delirious enough that you didn't notice the pair of hands that carefully held back your hair whilst gently patting your skin with a towel, emptying your stomach with a groan before you gaze up at the person who rubbed circles behind your back.
“Scara?" You whisper loud enough that he could hear, you thought for a moment that you were hallucinating from the fever but the cold feel of his touch on your face said otherwise.
“Texted your mom since you haven't answered my texts for two days now, turns out you're sick. If you're wondering why I'm here” Scara shook his head scrunching his face at the smell of puke but nevertheless helped you clean your face.
“When did you get here?” You lean into his touch melting at the his irregularly cold hands, something you find cute about your boyfriend.
“Ten minutes ago?” He shrugs before guiding you back to lay down.
“Awe, you're worried?" You couldn't help the snicker that came out looking at Scara like that.
“Who wouldn't be when usually you'd already called or texted me by now” He sighs before looking down seeing the puke in the basin, “Get some rest. I'll get you some water” He usually took care of his younger sister, it wasn't a big deal to him.
Your heart couldn't help the stupid grin on your face as Scara took the basin to the bathroom. You were sick and he was here to take care of you and he meant it.
A few minutes later Scara had came back up with a glass of water in one hand and the now clean basin in another. “Your mom said it was time for you to take the meds” He carefully placed the basin beside your bed while his gaze looks over your pitiful state with small concern.
“Okay, thanks. I really appreciate you doing this.” You feel his hand behind your back helping you up as he gives you the tablet.
Scara watches as you take the glass of water from him, noticing that your weak grip he instead tilts it to you, guiding carefully as you drink the medicine.
“What do you want? Apple or Orange?" Scara scans your face for any sign of discomfort, finding none he sighs in unsaid relief.
“Apple.. please and thanks” You mumble as Scara nods, “Be right back" He walks out of your bedroom turning off the light, shutting the door. Scara walks down the stairs to the kitchen seeing your mom making coffee for herself.
“Ah, thank you so much for helping out. I'm really busy with making exam papers that I couldn't check on them as much.” She smiles at the boy who stood by the door before urging him to come in, “Did you need something?”
Scara nods at her words, “An apple and a knife, if that's alright.” He steps inside the kitchen as your mom hands him a knife and a cutting board. Scara carefully cuts and carves the apple into a cute bunny. It was a funny sight with him so careful and focused carving the apple into a bunny.
You hear the bedroom door open as your eyes adjust to the light, “..Scara?” You call out to him as he walked with the plate lined up with the apple slices that looks like a bunny.
“Here, to make up for what you threw up” He sat on the bed as you move to give him a bit of space.
“Really, thank you so much. It's so cute, I didn't know you knew how to do this.” You instinctively open your mouth while Scara feeds you the apple slice.
“My younger sister wouldn't eat it back then if it wasn't cut like this.” He looks at your figure happily munching on the apple slice. A small genuine tugged at Scara as he feeds you the rest of the apple slices.
After a while, he helps you drink your water before helping you prop up your pillows. So, you wouldn't have to lay down completely flat on your bed.
“By the way, what did I miss at school?” You question your boyfriend, who luckily had a friend in your class he could ask.
“Xiao said you had a quiz and an essay. I'll do it for you. So, just get some rest.” Scara mumbles before holding your hand in his, gently caressing while holding eye contact with you.
“.. I'll stay with you until you fall asleep. So, get well soon.” Scara mutters softly, the tinge of concern apparent on his face with how heated your hand still felt in his gentle but firm grasp.
“I love you so much.” You smile at his words and in less than ten minutes, you feel your eyes close at his gentle caress.
A comfortable silence settles between you both as you eventually fade into a peaceful sleep.
“love you too, y/n.” He replied in a hushed tone not wanting to wake you up, bringing your hand to his lips.
“You better get well soon, idiot.”
Super self indulgent of course. I'm feeling better now that I've had medicine but I'll prolly go to the doctor for a check up tomorrow 🤷🏻♀️ anyways ily scara and all your versions mwa🫶 the borders r from @/saradika-graphics, also the third fanart on the banner is from valerieks on insta/twt 🫶
I headcanon that Bob is really whiny and clingy when he’s sick, but only with Cherry. He acts tough in front of everyone else but the minute it’s just the two of them he’s all, “Cherryyyyyy, I don’t feel good. 🥺”
The Curtis brothers absolutely refuse to admit when they’re sick. All three of them are terrible about this. They’ll hide it, then when the other two inevitably clock them they’ll deny it, then when they can’t deny it anymore they’ll insist on powering through it, they’re fine, it ain’t that bad.
They’ll drag themselves through work/school until they all but collapse - or until they do collapse - and the other two drag them home and manhandle them into bed.
The sick one will get scolded by the other two, “what the hell were you thinkin’? You pull a stunt like that again, we’ll skin you!”
Except they turn right around and do the same thing the next time they’re sick, because they are all gigantic hypocrites in that regard.
