Idk if this is a mini series or smth but inspiration hit me again with Blueberry Spectre~ inspired of course of the strawberry dress trend from a while back.
Do you have any Spectre x paranoid headcanons to talk about? I've never considered that ship before but I think it's really cute
I spent the whole day trying to organize these so it's easier to read...but I gave up so you're just gonna get these, in no particular order!
Enjoy my mad ravings under the cut!
(Note: Paranoid uses she/they/he interchangeably. So keep that in mind while reading)
- Spectre didn't initially like Paranoid. In my au, it's bc She was the voice with the Slayer when they killed her. In more "canon" settings, they don't exactly interact with one another, except for Wraith.
- but she found him, during a particularly bad episode (Para suffers from hallucinations). And tried to help her see that there's nothing to be afraid of. By possessing them (with consent, of course).
- Paranoid could...actually breathe easier. Sure, limbs felt cold and numb, but she was no stranger to jumpstarting organs.
- from there, Spectre lingers around Paranoid, possession becoming a common "bonding" activity.
- They talked a lot, in this state. Going from staying in place to actually able to function with each other.
- its like sorta-PatD existence. Where they sometimes forget that they're different entities.
- outside of possession, being with Spectre made Para more confident and comfortable. Always having someone to listen and not brush off their fears warmed his heart, even with her cold chill, which she quickly got used to.
- Spectre herself wondered why she ever thought Paranoid was ever a threat. To her, she's just a scared bird who was handed a blade and a set of instructions and panicked. Regardless if he was her murderer or not, she realized the Construct took their stability, much like how it took her body.
- there's a bond to be have, between people who lost something significant. And in an imperfect way, they got it back in each other. Paranoid gets his peace of mind to think and Spectre a body to feel. Is it perfect? No. But they are together. And they feel happy together, that's all that it needs to be.
- wait shit, these are supposed to be headcanons.
- Spectre is always the one to push Para out of her comfort zone. Anything new that could go wrong? She is there to guide them through it, going through the safety steps to calm her while also indulging in the thrill of something new.
- They both talk in sync sometimes. It's completely on accident. But they can't help sharing the same opinion or answer on something.
- if Paranoid shuts down, Spectre half-lets go so she can hug them through it. And will stay with him until she comes to.
- Because of the ghost, Paranoid has an insane temperature tolerance. Cold will not wear winter clothes bc he doesn't care about frostbite. Paranoid will not noticed she was freezing until he stepped into a warm room.
- strangely, he doesn't get frostbite, even when Spectre isn't sharing a body.
- Spectre described Paranoid as "something trying to take as little room as possible in a room made just for them".
- they're working on that.
- paranoid was the one to suggest the blueberry dress. Because he thought it would make her feel more connected to the mortal plain.
- it wasn't needed, but Spectre was so flattered, she got the dress made anyway. And it's one of her favorites.
- paranoid has worn it too. They can't help but admit it's fun to twirl in it.
- yes they go on picnics. And Spectre's favorite food are tomatoes, ironically enough.
- this has nothing to do with the tomato plant Para has been trying to painstakingly grow in his room.
- Ghost smooches. She does it before sending Para to bed. It helps them sleep at night, when she has to leave.
- if they ever meet Spectre!Wraith or PaTD, Paranoid is horrified. Both from the terror they exuded, and from the implications that they had to hurt Spectre to get them. Hurting her seems out of the question to the voice. (Spectre reassured she will never be mad at her)
- they heard each other talk for so long, they can replicate each other's voice. It's perfect for pranks, which Spectre loves.
((And that's all I got for now. Lemme know if you wanna hear more. Byeee~))
Hi Mai!! Saw you reblogged the ask game, and wanted to ask 🌹 and 💕 for Heropris and Spectnoid, please?
The ask game in question
Let's get the show on the road (under the cut)
[Note: these ships do not follow canon at all. So i hope thats ok]
🗡HEROPRIS⛓️
🌹 Who fell harder and who fell first?
To both, Hero fell from the moment she saw Prisoner and it was a deep crush. Back then they were simply the "Voice" and the "Princess". Sure, a lot of it was egg cracking, but she felt compelled to save him. After everything was said and done, Prisoner was most comfortable with Hero, so they spend time together. And after their individual change, they remained together. Hero was lucky that the love was reciprocated. And who could blame Prisoner?
💕 How did they both realize "Oh wait, this is actually love"?
For Prisoner, it was when Hero refused to give him the blade. Not out of distrust, but out of the belief that they didn't need it to save themselves. Hero showed agency and determination. And together they broke the cage and freed themselves. To this day, Hero is the only one he trusts full heartedly, despite her occasional mistakes.
For Hero, it was already there from the start. But what really sold her that it was love and not a crush was when they came out to one another. Admittedly, saying you're transgender to another transgender isn't the worse way to confess your love. Because she realized that she would love the Prisoner, no matter what he was.
👻SPECTRENOID😱
🌹 Who fell harder and who fell first?
There wasn't a who fell first, or who fell harder, because, from some perspective, they fell for each other at the same time.
After possessing the Decider and leaving the cabin, the Spectre wasn't eager to talk to her killer again, neither was her killer. But a panic attack lead to another, and they started walking as one entity again.
They were still separate beings, they are not always together, and they do spend time apart. But there are many ways to interpret their relationship. Some may say it's unhealthy. But Paranoid never opposed to her being inside him. It just simply what felt the most right.
Spectre called em as a couple as a tease, but there is no distinction from how they usually are. They are together, that's all that matters, to them.
💕 How did they both realize "Oh wait, this is actually love"?
As stated above, it just came naturally. What started as a tease in the wind became solid fact. Paranoid didn't deny anyone saying they were, and Spectre was simply along for the ride. She enjoyed having her killer to herself, even if she's a little jumpy. Paranoid liked that he's never truly alone. Not in a creeping terror way, but in the tangible (heh) way.
They knew of the Princess and the Dragon, thst they used to be one. Maybe that's the reason why they're so relaxed, maybe not. Paranoid isn't one to think about why things work to it's atoms (that's Skeptic's job). Things just needed to work.
And what they have right now is what works for them.
