I like to think of the warding cards as pictures MC takes or saves.

why? there could be a lot of reasons cause she could just like taking photos, but my personal headcanon would just be to remember, so every simple moment from her possible last year could be memorialized. All the simplicity what makes life with the ghouls normal to everyone else. A lot of the photos seem hidden or taken haphazardly and I like to think MC is hiding the fact she is taking photos of the ghouls.

I saw a warding card of jiro and yuri having lunch together and it reminded me of my personal headcanon about it. I really like the idea of it and find it sweet to picture a scrapbook she leaves for them so they can see how MC saw them.

Tokyo debunker bad end

okay, but imagine because the ghouls "aren't human" they are actively referred to in the story as not human, they are unaffected by the curse.

So MC is just taken care of by the ghouls.

They really avoid dehumanizing

Rui preens your leaves just as he does any other plant in the obscuary garden,

Towa fawns over you in plant form like he does the tree, he can assumably still talk to you.

Kaito visits you, but now he insists that Luca come with him because he is nervous seeing you in your anomalous form. He's scared but works hard to hide it. Luca acts the same but a sadness in his eyes promising to help you, no matter what he will find out how to help you.

Ren and Haru tend to visit together, Ren still referring to you with honorifics. You're not water so Ren is surprisingly cool with just kicking it with you than anyone thought he would be.

I think Yuri would still be trying to figure out how to reverse it, I imagine it would bring out a different side to him, because I think he would see it as a failure he would be working day and night to try and help you. I feel like the ghouls would have to intervene to get him to take breaks we see him as cocky and lax, but this would be personal to him as a failure it would lead to a big change. Given if his mother had passed and he was also trying to help her. She was gone and he couldn't save her now but he can save you.

Pt. 1

Vagastrom pretend its yellow

if you like what you read and want me to write any of these more in depth just request and I will.

Leo taking cute photos of each other Leo may act aloof, and like he's too cool for you, but the photos he takes of you show how beautiful you are in his eyes. His eyes glitter with pride looking at his work and he smiles up at you. Not relishing for long before bluntly demanding, “okay now take one of me,” he pauses, “make me look as good as you look,” avoiding eye contact after the half disguised compliment before posing for the camera. After you take half a million photos he excitedly looks over your shoulder at them. “Wow, you must really like me to make me look this good,” he says with a smirk. He continues to praise your work and remarks he's glad he took you because you took better photos than even Sho.

Sho going for midnight drives 

After a busy day Sho invites you to go on a ride with him to buy some ingredients for a new dish he wants to test for a new special. It's already sundown by the time you two leave. You two arrive at the grocery store only to find it closed up. You're quick to apologize about getting their so late. Sho shrugs and reassures you, "it's not your fault we left so late, lets just do something else," he grabs your hand and walks back to Bonnie. "You're not too tired, right" you nod and he smiles, "good to hear." Afterwards you two sneak back into Sho's dorm and sleep there it being too late for you to want to go back to the Clementina dorm, especially not wanting Sho to have to walk you all the way there. In the morning unsurprisingly, Leo casually strolls in and finds you two together too shocked to even acknowledge, rudely waking you two up. "um... okay...? I thought I would have heard you come in" and with his snide comment he leaves.

Mido dinner and a movie

He’s simple, but sweet going with a typical date to take you on. Bringing you a small gift each time you two meet for a date. He’s quiet and can be quite shy about holding your hand waiting for you to initiate. He always plans to go to the movie first because it gives him something to talk about, even still, he's quiet. He sits smiling subtly, admiring you as you eat. He insists on paying, of course, and walking you home no matter how much you insist you don't want to be a burden. On special days he will surprise you by taking you to get desert after and you can trick him to go to the bathroom so you can pay for him. Although after one or two times he will catch on and only will feign innocence to serve your ego.

[pong03]

this is Lowkey an extension to my post about towa. I'll link it in a reblog.

But,

Towa calling the MC dandelion is lowkey fucked up, like yeah dandelions are so cute and at first its sweet but like, dandelions are transformative, the nickname was foreshadowing to the reveal in episode six. Taking it into consideration makes Towa's nickname for the MC considerably darker but it also makes you question his knowledge and where it ends.

Also I'm gonna say I feel like this is very surface level so if you saw a post saying this before pls send, because I really don't want to steal an idea if someone else had alreadytalked about this

Leo kurosagi analysis

this was requested but tumblr wont let me post to their ask so: Okay, Leo is selfish. I'm not gonna deny all the bad things people say about him, or even deny he is a bad person, but he is a GREAT set up for a character. I would like to say that Tokyo debunker is giving set up for growth from each character, Leo is just the most Jarring, for the fan base. full disclosure, I did not like Leo or even consider liking him until I saw the HATE on here, I'm not just trying to be quirky by liking the most disliked character either. I tend to just want to see the good in what most people dislike. I like kpop and I tend to bias the most criticized or least biased members of a group, because I think it's an amazing feeling to give love... Although I understand it's cathartic to hate too, and that's probably why the Leo hate is so strong. I also still don't LIKE Leo, but I really do want to explore his character and I probably will make more posts as we see him more and as I experience him more myself. The Leo cu*king tho, is maybe my least favorite "trope" in TBD fanfic rn... but I don't k*nkshame y'all :*

I also would like to say Sho is his friend, not his victim or Rapunzel. There is some value to Leo in Sho's eyes and I think we shouldn't degrade that because we see that if Sho doesn't like someone he will not engage i.e Ren. Sho is a sweet character and I think he might be friends with Leo because he wants to see the best in him or knows his more repulsive behaviors are a defense mechanism or explained by other reasons we the MC are yet to see. Why I think that is even tho the weird blob guys in the mystery diner suck at making food he still wants to see the best in them, and that very scenario could be a cheeky analogy from the writers themselves, about Sho and Leo. Obviously Leo could be blackmailing Sho, I know that is a commonly held belief, but I do have some perspectives that could debunk that thought. Leo doesn't Garner blackmail on his peers. I think Leo is nosy, and invasive, but he is also incredibly capable, implied by his contributions to the vagastrom group case. If he wanted to figure out who Alan killed he could with his hacking prowess, but instead he asks Mido himself. In invasive ways yes, but he could just have found the information himself, whether by hacking or asking the countless witnesses of the clash. Rather he asks Mido face to face, and, correct me if I'm wrong we can't say he wouldn't have taken no for an answer because Mido just gets mad at his antics and never gives him a straight up no. Again I could be wrong so let me know if Alan does give him a straight no. It's been a while since chapter two for me.

Right now I want to explore some possibilities for his character given the information we have about him ATM. I mentioned above the fact his little nasty, mean, degrading comments could be a defense moreso that he wants people to try and push past that to see if they're viable as his friends. Especially because he is micro-influencer he might be protective of himself because of that. As well as being a chronic liar online he may want to know if he can trust you not to expose him online. I think exploring his past would be amazing because even his stigma makes him seem like an overly cautious person, as well as invasive. Cautious? I feel like its cut and dry that wanting to hear what people say when you aren't around could hint to him being quite anxious about what people think about him. like idk I also feel like the jealousy we see towards Sho might also be more about people finding Sho more approachable. I think because Leo wants to be more involved with people in power he might have not been trying to scare Subaru away because "Sho is mine >:(" and actually could have been jealous that Subaru noticed Sho first and not him. Still awful right? but also like I said I don't see Leo as enjoyable but more so a lot of room for redemption, or explanation. Sympathy or empathy might be something we feel for him a lot if he is properly explored.

Obvs these are just possibilities right :) I actually find him very cute and I like his catty behavior, especially because in comparison to other nasty ghouls he is like a kitten hissing at you, harmless. Like dude Taiga shot me, and you're just a nasty baby, I smell your fear on the inside, you just want to be loved like everyone else. He's a true tsundere and not that "I swear I don't like you!!" shit and I appreciate that. I hope nobody misconstrues this as defense of his toxicity more-so that the point of tokyo debunkers focus seems to be everyone is demonizing these teens who seriously are just teens, and sometimes teenagers are catty are toxic, but they're still learning. Especially when the adults suck too... if not more because they are adults. AND LEO IS HATED FOR BEING STINKY AND MEAN BUT TAIGA AND ROMEO ARE LIKED BUT SO MUCH MORE MORALLY DECREPIT... so idk that especially irks me. I still would like to know what people think and if you are also excited to see the exploration of the ghouls especially Leo, and what theories you may have on him yourself.

Go-to Date Headcanons pt.3

pt.1 pt.2

Jabberwock

Ren

Movie Date in His Room He texts you later in the day around sundown inviting you to come over clarifying that you should be in comfy clothes if not just straight up pajamas emphasis on avoiding Haru as you get in. as you’re at his bedroom door he opens it, quickly pulling you in and closing the door behind you. He locks the door and then the window. Seeing your confused and flustered face he shakes his head "ugh…it’s not like that, that clown is… it’s Haru. I just changed the locks so we should be good,” still confused as why he called you here in the first place, You're still flustered at the implications.

“It’s this new movie, I just wanted to watch it with someone… its like supposed to be scary.” he sits down on his bed scootting and making space for you and he pats the space next to him. As you sit next to him he flicks off the overhead lights creating a nice cozy vibe. He starts the movie and slyly waits for the movie to scare you so you move closer to him. If you don't scare before he starts to get impatient he’ll pretend to get scared himself. You flash him a confused look knowing how the only thing to unsettle him being the ocean. he looks up at you clinging to your arm, “ah, I didn’t think it would actually be this scary” he says unconvincingly slightly loosening his arms , but not fully setting you free. He spends the whole movie exaggerating his fear, but over the top for him is still quite flat. After you finish the movie Ren convinces you to stay the night by feigning fear. Although you didn’t need much convincing yourself, especially with his cute act he’s been putting up all night. 

Haru

Amusement Park date Haru isn’t one to relax and often gets anxious if he doesn’t feel like he is doing enough. The amusement park is a perfect place as it keeps him busy with no real responsibility. Though as you walk through it he points out certain risks that he would never allow on the Jabberwock campus. You smile but as he continues you talk about work you grab his hand gently “Haru, don’t worry about work. Let’s not even talk about it” he laughs embarrassedly. You notice that he is quiet after your comment and take him to a booth with soft serve and insist on paying for him. Its your treat and even when you were in the process of planning this date you refused to let Haru know the price. You lied and told him a friend gave you the tickets for free so he wouldn’t pay you.

After a couple rides and games Haru seems to forget all his worries so distracted by the hustle and bustle of the crowds around you two, he wraps his arm around your shoulders pulling you closer as you two walk side by side. Having spent the whole day there as the sun goes down and the rides’ bright lights illuminate the area you pull Haru into a more private side street between attractions. The lighting dim as one side of his startled face is illuminated you pull him closer so your faces are inches apart smiling up at his blushing visage before pulling him into a passionate kiss. Although you two were quite affectionate on this trip with hand holding, sharing food, etcetera Haru’s surprise is not well hidden. His hands fumble for an appropriate placement stumbling from a harsh grip on your arms before setting with a much more natural home wrapped around your hips, you smile pulling away.

“You did a good job not worrying about work today Haru, keep it up for next time.” you flirt before pulling him back towards the larger crowds who are preparing for a firework show. 

Towa

Stargazing Date As you often find yourself restless you take many midnight walks. You wander the Darkwick campus and at this point you know every corner of the campus by now. After the first night he spotted you during your mission with obscuary, it didn’t take long before Towa noticed the frequency of your nightly outings, as it grew he began to join you more often. Pulling you to the tree and laying on the hill surrounding it beckoning you to lay with him.

At first you two talk frivolously Towa easing you back to a restful state with conversation. Each morning you wake up back in your own bed. The first time it happened you thought it was a dream that was just so realistic, until the next night you found yourself similarly restless and go venture in the chill of the night. Towa finds you again with a smile. The events of last night repeat, with a different conversation, focusing more on love and soulmates as you two watch the stars overhead glow brighter than the fruit on the tree. Towa pulls you to his chest sweetly, “you seemed cold” he nestles his head by your neck, before shifting his head back towards the sky. Towa begins to point out the stars, showing you which constellations he knows. The entire time pampering you with physical affection, hand running through your hair, commenting on your floral scent. his warmth seeping into your body as you begin to fade back to sleep while he continues to talk to you. You think about the stark contrast of Towa during the day to how when you’re with him at night where it seems he would never stop talking.

His voices fades with your consciousness before you know it the sun seeps into your vision. you find yourself in bed again wondering if it truly was another dream.

pt.2

Frostheim

if you want a more in depth fan fiction of any of these please request these were so fun to write!

Kaito cafe dates Kaito is always on instagram seeing videos about the newest trending cafes plotting which ones to bring you to. He insists on paying despite the fact he’s broke asf always. He encourages you to buy the most popular things which also tend to be the most expensive, gritting his teeth as he sees the price all together. As you two sit together at a table Kaito watches you enjoy everything he got you with a smile on his face too shy to initiate anything more than wiping crumbs from your face. That proving to be too intense as he apologizes profusely for not asking if he could first.

Luca museum date

Luca loves to learn and is thirsty for knowledge not just about how to subjugate demons but everything. Wanting to learn more about Japanese culture he frequently researches places of worship, history and museums where he can learn more about Japan. He invites MC especially because she can help him understand more, especially as a Japanese learner he needs help with the more complex kanji. He whispers in your ear, shyly to ask you to read something aloud or help him read a kanji. he pulls you closer as more people come to the exhibit you two were already looking at as to not be in people's way. His hand doesn't leave your waist until he confirms his understanding and is ready to move on to the next exhibit.

Tohma - breakfast dates Tohma makes you breakfast himself, and treats you like royalty. Starting you off with a cup of tea and something small as he cooks the main course of breakfast. Sweetly smiling as he sits across from you laying down what he cooked on the table, the warm food contrasting with frigidity of frostheim, as you two continue to have these dates more often, Tohma notes which foods you seems to favor and makes them more often. Tohma is quite bold holding your hand and stealing kisses as he gets up to deal with the dishes.

Jin cuddle/nap dates This man is lazy asf sleeping in past noon he is not taking you out, but he constantly is encouraging you to sleep over and visit him early in the morning to cuddle him. If you wake him up coming in he’ll let it slide grunting for you to be more careful as he pulls you down to him. He comments how nice it is to feel your warm skin. He slides his hands up your shirt ignoring your gasp pulling you closer. He is relishing in your warmth he murmurs “you’re so warm” falling back asleep before you even process what happened.

Kaito character analysis

Let's start light before I get more into the conspiracy theorist ramblings. in nsfw stuff I have read I feel like he is commonly misunderstood. I have read a lot where he is hasty, unemotional and self-serving... although I can see where hasty and lazy may come from but, think about: Kaito towards MC focuses on making her happy and although not always successful it is his main goal, BUT to write him as UNEMOTIONAL.

Y'all he is the most emotional of any man in the whole series. especially, in a first time headcanon post he should not be written as unemotional... we all know he would be crying and being like "MC you're such an angel boo hoo" and "I'm so glad I had my first time with you." he might be quick to finish but I think he would very guilty and put effort towards making it up to MC as soon as he was physically able. ALSO one thing I read he just was written as giving no aftercare,,, sorry am I the crazy one to say Kaito (most of frostheim) would be the most into aftercare?? His grandma always told him blah blah blah.. to him sex wouldn't even parallel to the aftercare experience, and tbh dude would be the one to need it the most. Tell me he wouldn't do everything the MC told him too and if was even slightly degrading to her he would be SOBBING afterwards all like "I'm sorry I said all that mean stuff, I know you asked but I don't believe any of it. You're SOOO NICE." You can't disagree with me yk I'm right. Okay.. I'm like trying to keep this part short but kind of failed. Obviously your head canons are what you're entitled to... just I feel like a lot of people admit to struggling to write him so maybe they'd preesh a post like this. HML if you want Kaito advice ig okay, admittedly this second part is a bit in-depth... like could be a reach but I have A LOT of evidence so hear me out. We all know Kaito hates being a ghoul and is considerably weaker willed than the other ghouls, he is also raised by his grandma. We can assume this because she is the ONLY family member he talks about (on the home screen and in the story) and the process of becoming a ghoul is intense right? Something that would be surprising if he regrets becoming one and is the big ol baby that he is. I think that Kaito's parents are the ones who made the deal, and they didn't survive. He was born to a poor family we know this because he talks about it all the time. SO my personal thought is he was born to a single mother who didn't have any funds to raise him even with the grandmother's help, so she wishes for greatness for her baby, and makes a deal with a devil to protect her child. Because we know he doesn't have the academics to get in Frostheim and he probably was not open about being a ghoul, it's a hoe-scaring quality. So I think he's basically got assigned-plot-armor-at-birth. and basically the demon could be kind of like how luca's monster is possibly his brother, and his mom's soul in entwined with a demon's (like a ghoul's would be) and basically they co-parent him which would explain why his stigma is so weak comparatively to other ghouls. this is more exploratory, but what I truly BELIEVE bare bones is: Kaito's parents are the one's who made the deal. That's it that's all I truly believe in and everything else is speculative. I just think it would be cool especially because I think the process of becoming a ghoul is left especially vague for this purpose. Hehe let me know what you think about this and other things that you personally think about kaito! I'm really curious about other fan's thoughts.
