hi! can i request hcs of tenna with a gn reader who loves matching items with him? (for example like accessories or clothes). uty to decide whether the reader is lightner or darkner!
“It’s A Match!”
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Mr. Ant Tenna Headcanon’s with GN Darkner!Reader
⇢ ˗ˏˋ You were a big fan of a certain TV’s gameshow, it was to the point where you would buy or even make outfits or items just so you could match with him. His suit? Oh, you have a handmade one similar to it! It’s gotten to the point where you look like you’re cosplaying him sometimes, which wasn’t really out of the ordinary. Of course, you tend to tone it down in public; you couldn’t go out looking like a super fan.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ But at one of his shows? You’re in the crowd jumping around and cheering his name when he comes up on stage, whilst wearing a red suit similar to his own. Today, his shows were a bit different; usually, he has contestants already in their places on stage, but it seemed like he was pulling contestants from the audience today. You had somehow managed to get picked from the array of people, and then you realized how embarrassing it was that you were sort of matching with him once you stepped up on the stage.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Tenna, of course, immediately noticed and made a comment about it out loud to the whole audience. You stand behind the stand in embarrassment, but at least you were there, standing in front of your idol and even participating in his show!
“Look at that, folks! Aren't you something, we're matching!”
“Uh yeah! I did it on purpose since I'm such a big fan, but I wouldn't have imagined being up here.”
That was your first meeting with Tenna, as a contestant on his show. Soon, he saw you again and again in the crowd. You weren't lying when you said you were his biggest fan; most of the people in the crowd he had to bribe with points to stay, and yet you were just there because you enjoyed his shows.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ The more you attended his shows, the more he saw you. And that caused him to focus on you, especially when you're in the audience cheering him on and clapping for him. From then on, he was looking forward to seeing you. After some more time, you somehow became friends with him, and that allowed for more matching. You gave him matching friendship bracelets, matching clothes, and other accessories.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Tenna found the whole matching thing cute and fun. It was always a question of what you would match with and how you would present it. The closer you got to him, the easier it was to match. Oh, you want to wear matching ties one day? He's already on it, thinking about what patterns there are to choose. But since you were friends now, it was just small stuff here and there. A tie or maybe even a bracelet, small things to match with in friendship! But, the more your relationship grew to something more romantic, the more you ended up matching with him.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Once you're in an established relationship with Tenna, he won't ever let you go. If anything, matching with him makes him more attached to you. Especially if it gets to the point where you match in jewelry. Tenna was actually the one who asked you to wear a ring for him out of the blue, one that matches the one he suddenly bought.
“Y/N! Darling, look, I got us matching rings!”
“Oh, these are beautiful, Tenna, but why'd you get these? As far as I'm aware, there's no special occasion.”
“Aha, that’s where you're wrong! This is a special occasion, me giving this ring to you, a promise of our future together.”
“Ohh, Tenna…you’re too sweet.”
So now you've gained a new item, a promise ring. It held sentimental value, and it was the most important matching accessory you had. It made everything all the more real. Your love and adoration for one another were shown by the things you shared. So receiving a gift like this from him was more than you could ask for.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ From then on, for a few weeks or so, Tenna spent a good minute at least once on his show talking about his amazing partner and the ring they share. Or he would mention that he's matching with you today to the audience. He basically makes it apparent to everyone that your lovers and no one else should be matching with you besides him. Tenna adores every aspect of matching with you, and there's no shot he would decline your offer to match with him. With Tenna, he will 100% match with you even if the outfit looks ridiculous.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Advertisement: Hey you! Yeah you, the person who read this whole thing, do you like Tenna? Well this blog is THE place for Tenna fanfiction. Check my bio if I have requests open and my rules. I HAVE MY ASKS OPEN JUST FOR HIM RAHHH!!
A/N: Me when I make up scenarios for asks...anyways! I hope you liked this, dear Anon! WOO!!!
Tenna headcannons with a reader who is a lightner with social anxiety or just anxiety in general pls :3
Gender doesn't matter.
“Wired Emotions.”
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Mr. Ant Tenna Headcanon’s with GN Lightner!Reader (Platonic)
⇢ ˗ˏˋ When you somehow made it into the dark world. Your nerves were through the roof. You didn’t know how you made it to this place, where you were, or how to get back home. You were anxious of these creatures you kept seeing all around. They could be dangerous and harm you, or at least that’s what you thought. Even as you wandered through the dark world, trying to find a way back home, you came across a man with a TV for a head.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Tenna had spotted you as you were technically walking towards his area. He couldn’t help but be enthusiastic as he approached you. He was about to speak up until he realized he had never seen you before. You're not like any darkner that lives nearby. So he made the assumption you were like Kris! And it was a brilliant assumption that he made because he was right once he started talking to you.
“Oo, are you alright!? You look prettyyyy lost.”
“Oh, um…yes…I’m lost?”
The silence was deafening, your response to him was meek, and he just kind of stood there waiting for you to say more, but he soon realized you weren’t going to say anything unless he asked you. If anything, he noticed that you were quite nervous speaking to him. Maybe it’s because of his large height, but he then spoke in a softer, comforting tone.
“If you want, you could come inside, and we can figure out how to get you home.”
You nod your head at him and hesitantly follow him. He could be trying to trick you after all. But he’s slightly changed his attitude about not trying to kidnap people after Kris and their friends. You entered the place, and it was so lively and busy, and then he took you into the green room, where you sat down on the couch.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ After a while of some awkward and painful silence between short conversations you had with him he was able to determine that you weren’t from this world and that it would be best if you just stayed a while until Kris came back into the dark world so they could help you go back to the light world. He explained what the dark world was and everything which left you a bit confused and concerned.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ It took a few days for Kris to come and visit Tenna, but once they did, he introduced you to Kris, but of course, Kris knew you from the light world and was concerned as to why you were here, of all places. You had a whole talk on how it happens and stuff. They were able to get you back home after a while, but you soon realized you ended up in the place more often than not. Naturally, you would go to the only place you knew of, which was with Tenna.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ He would soon come to realize you didn’t like forced interactions or people coming up to you suddenly to talk. And that you actually found it very hard to talk to other people. Tenna was one of the first people you told about your social anxiety. How you didn’t like it when people talked about you or when everyone’s attention was on you in a group gathering, or anything similar to that.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ At first, he didn’t really understand why you didn’t want people to notice you or have their attention on you. Why didn’t you like talking to people? He was the complete opposite of you. It took him some time to understand why you felt that way, but once he was able to understand, he made sure not to make you uncomfortable at all. He’s always making sure that people aren’t pushing you to talk. Tenna ends up being very comforting and a bit protective of you!
“Y/N, are they messing with you? Just say the world and I’ll kick 'em out!”
He pointed at himself and smiled at you with care as he eyed certain people who were talking to you a few seconds ago, right before he arrived. No one was going to make his best bud upset! Not on his watch at least. Surprisingly enough, people respected him. Overall, Tenna is a sweetheart when it comes to your anxiety, and he definitely doesn’t force you to do things you don’t like. If anything, he tries to help you with your anxiety!

A/N: I rlly hope you liked this, Anon! I took some creative liberty and made a little scenario for this. Woahh!!!
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Mr. Ant Tenna Headcanon’s with GN!Reader (Established Relationship)
WARNINGS: nsfw, praise kink, oral sex, riding and more :0
⇢ ˗ˏˋ As a couple for a few years, it’s of course natural for you to engage in certain activities with your lovely partner, Tenna. Him being a host and all has somewhat gotten in the way of the privacy of your life; people want to know all the nitty gritty stuff just because he's a game show host. Of course, neither of you want that. But even with trying to keep things private, you both can’t help yourself when you finally have the free time to indulge.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ There have been cases where immediately after a show, Tenna would go to his office and flop onto his chair in exhaustion. If you were to sit on his lap and kiss him all over, he would immediately react. He would lean into your touch and hold your waist. While you lightly grind down on him. It drives him insane when you do small moves like that. But it only works if he’s tired after a show where he’ll just let you do whatever to him as you please.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Tenna especially likes it when you praise him, telling him that he’s making you feel good? He’ll be on cloud nine. He really likes being praised since he likes getting attention for doing something good. But if you’re praising him while messing with his sensitive antennas, he may just start getting a bit loud. When you first out, he was noisy in bed you slightly made fun of him for it. But now you enjoy it because it means he’s feeling really good just because of you.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ He loves holding you every second, he’s very touch-starved, and he can’t help but sloppily kiss you while you’re on top of him. Especially not when you’re wrapped around him. You know he can’t help but be very clingy during sex. So holding his hand while you move on top of him will make him feel wanted. Or wrapping your arms and legs around him, Tenna just wants to feel wanted and have your eyes on him.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Another thing, he’s definitely a service top. He loves giving in to your needs, making sure you’re feeling good and receiving the most pleasure as possible. But, there’s also the possibility of Tenna being the one taken care of. If you’re the one making sure that he feels good, then your company and touch are all he needs. All you need to do is praise him, compliment him, tell him that he’s doing good and he’ll be putty in your hands.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Sit on that man’s screen. For the love of all mighty, if you sit on that man’s face and let him please you that way. He will be enjoying every single bit of it, especially if you pull on his antennas while he goes at it. He may have fangs, but surprisingly enough, he’s not a big biter; he’s not constantly biting you, but if you’re riding his face, some bite marks will be left on your thighs. And if he’s close, his screen will start glitching, and even when he finishes, his screen turns into the ‘Be Right Back’ screen.

A/N: Just a few words for this one! More so, general headcanon's for this. Aaa, freaky deaky.
WARNINGS: deltarune end of chapter 3 spoilers!!, slight angst? idk
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Today was a mess. An utterly horrible mess, the other employees left. Hell, even Mike quit the job. But you just couldn’t, not when you know how Tenna is, you care about him too much to just leave him, even if he did hold those kids hostage. You could just abandon him after all the trust he’s put in you. Contact or not, you were more than just his employee; you were his trusted friend.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ He went hair-wire after the kids found out about Kris’s mom being held hostage. The kids managed to talk to him a little while after; they brought him back to his senses. They comforted him and assured him people cared about him. You weren’t involved in the talk; you were just waiting behind the doors, listening in. But you weren’t there for him when that dark figure came and injured him. The kids went after the mysterious figure while you busted through the doors and rushed over to his side.
“Tenna?! Are you alright?!”
“Y/N…?”
He was weak, his wires and arms were cut, and one of his legs was cut off too. Messy wires dangled from his limbs, and his screen was broken, glitching too. You panic a little, but take a deep breath and calm yourself down. Your panicking wasn’t going to help; if anything, it may make it worse for him. So instead, you ran out the room, storming around the place until you found his room and rummaged around the place trying to find spare wires, tools and screws—anything you could do to fix him back together before his screen turns off.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ You won’t let him vanish right before your eyes, you were going to fix him up with whatever you could find. He was sat there, vision blurred, dizzy, and constantly blanking out. In his state, it’s surprising how he can still have any consciousness. You then rush back to him with wires, screws, and even motherboards. As you sat down next to him, you began with his arms, untangling wires and placing in new ones. His screen kept glitching, and he looked so out of it.
“I’m so sorry if this hurts you, Tenna…Jeez, your wires are all messed up...This is going to take a while, alright?”
A meek twitch was all that you got from him; he really was injured since he could barely move his head to nod. You frowned and started to focus more on the task at hand. Sure, you're not a mechanic or a pro at this type of thing, but there have been times when he’s accidentally messed up a wire, you’ve helped him fix himself up, but never to this caliber.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ It took a few minutes to get the first arm back to its top shape, and the second arm took much longer since the boards that connected to the wires were completely fried. You ended up having to rip apart one of the mini game boards to get one to fix his arm. By the time you got his second arm back in shape, he was more awake and was able to finally speak with glitches in his voice.
“Y/N?! Are you alright?—”
“Tenna, I’m fine, goodness, I wasn’t the one attacked by that figure. But I’m fixing up your leg now, I don’t have anything to fix your screen, so we’ll figure that out later.”
You were too busy wiring his leg to notice that he was smiling at you. You stayed for him at his worst, and you’re even fixing him up after an injury? You’re better than Mike! He then tested out his arms, and it seems like you fixed them up pretty well; they were practically in top shape again.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Once his leg was back, he tried to stand up and adjusted to being fixed up. His screen was making him dizzy since it was cracked, but other than that, he was fine. You held his hand subconsciously as he stood up, frowning a bit as he stumbled.
“At least you’re better…although you nearly scared me to death when I saw you on the ground like that…”
“I guess you could say it was a KNOCKOUT…?”
He was trying to make you smile and make light of everything. It worked, though; he made you laugh a little, and he nudged your side with a grin on his face. You squeezed his hand, and he squeezed yours back.
“Oh, come on, let’s just fix that screen of yours up. Got any backups in your office?”
“Yep! Probably—”
A smile graced your lips as he sheepishly rubbed his neck. You both walk down the halls whilst still holding hands. In truth, it was because Tenna was sort of subconsciously afraid that you would leave him or magically disappear if he let go. Everyone else left him, and he didn’t want you to leave him either.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ His office was a mess. It was as if someone threw stuff around and tossed things to the ground. You frown and look at him. He looked away and instead started rummaging around to find any spare screens. You sigh at him, but let the matter go, especially since this was probably when he was going crazy. You don’t want him to feel bad about it when you should be worried about his screen instead.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Together, you found a spare screen for him. You told him to sit down so you could do it, but he kept refusing to. You sigh at his stubbornness and sit down and watch him fix his screen. At some point, when he took his screen off, he couldn’t see, so he actually did need help. He just didn’t want to ask for it.
“It’s fine, I can do it myself, see I’ve already got this much done.”
“Tenna, I know you can barely see me right now.”
“What?!?! Yes, I can, see you right there!”
He was pointing and facing a wall. You snort and then guide him to sit down by his shoulder, and then you cup his head with a hum. He stiffened, and a pink glow started to emit from his screen. He’s blushing! You’ve seen this color before, usually when he’s embarrassed or especially when he gets compliments from fans.
“Are you…blushing?”
“NO I'M NOT!”
His face glowed even more, and you just bursted out laughing at him immediately after his shout. You then calm down, but he jolts at the fact that you suddenly kissed the side of his head, humming immediately after, and getting back to work on replacing his screen as if you didn’t do anything just now.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ After his screen was fixed up, he decided it was time to get his revenge. So he cupped your face and kissed your head with a soft thank you. He caught you off guard, and it made your heart beat.
“Um…you’re welcome…”
“I mean it, though, Y/N, you’ve been by my side since day one, and I just want to say I really, and I mean really, appreciate you.”
He then smiled down at you and poked your cheek. You smile at him and then sigh at his antics, even at his lowest, he still managed to keep a smile. Even if it was meek. His hand then made its way to intertwine with your own, your gaze flicks up to him, and you bashfully look away from him.
“Is that a confession…?”
A small nod is all you got from him, well, his glowing pink screen told you more than that, and the way he was gripping your hand. He was flustered beyond belief, but also because he was in love with you, and he just realized it now. It wasn’t just because you helped him out today, but the fact that you’ve been his friend since day one, you’ve been by his side since you’ve met, and he wouldn’t change it for the world.

A/N: Please give me asks for this man 🙏 Also I went overboard with this for a “headcanon.”
Hello!! This is my first time requesting anyone about anything, but can you write a Cole x GN!reader in which the reader tries to show hints that they like Cole and he's just completely oblivious?
Like the reader buys him a lot of snacks and hangs out with him a lot and hints that he's their type and he doesnt even realize it until reader is just exhausted of him not picking it up and confesses to him and he's all like "yes I like you too but why didn't you show me any signs that you liked me because i totally would have noticed!"
I think that would be really cute :D
“Oblivious Affection.”
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Cole Brookstone Headcanon’s with GN!Reader
⇢ ˗ˏˋ You had first met Cole when he came inside your bakery one day in Ninjago City. After all, having one of the Ninjas break down your bakery wall wasn’t something that happened every day. Except that it sort of did. It was like your bakery was a target for destruction! But, hey, at least they helped you rebuild it every single time, which was nice!
⇢ ˗ˏˋ But that’s not the only reason why you see the Ninjas often, it’s also because a certain Earth Ninja really likes the sweets you bake. He was practically your number one customer. Cole came in at least 3 times a week to your bakery just to buy some sweet treats from you. And the more he showed up, the more you grew fond of the Ninja.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Sometimes, along with his order, you would give him extra sweet treats for him to take. And every single time, he would try to deny your offer. But you persisted and told him it was fine and that you would only do it for him since he’s your favorite customer.
“It’s on the house, just for you!”
“Oh jeez…I can’t accept this…”
“Cole, it’s fine, really! You don’t have to pay, I just want to show my appreciation.”
“Alright, alright, if you say so, I can’t pass up on free food after all!”
You deadpan at him, and then sigh and shake your head at his goofiness as you pack up his extra-sweet treats in a bag with the rest of his order. You smile and wave as he leaves the bakery with a grin on his face.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ Other days, he would come in while it was your break so that he could go on walks with you and give you company. You, of course, went along with it because you liked his company, but also just because you liked Cole himself. But it seemed like no matter how many free treats you give him, no matter how many walks you go on. Hell! Sometimes you invite him to go out! But it just seemed like the ninja couldn’t catch a hint that you were into him.
⇢ ˗ˏˋ It got to the point where you had to ask the other Ninjas for advice. And well, they just told you Cole’s just really oblivious like that. Apparently, a chick was flirting with him and he didn’t even know, until she outright kissed him on the cheek. That’s how oblivious he was, it seemed. Maybe you had to be more direct with him? And you did get more direct with your hints.
“Y’know, you look really nice today.”
“Huh? Oh, thanks, you look nice today too!”
You were screaming inside your head at him; how did he not get that?! Okay, maybe he thought you were just being nice and complimenting him. But come on, how does a man not connect the dots between free food and compliments? That’s basically flirting, right?
⇢ ˗ˏˋ The more direct you got with your hints, the more it seemed like you were losing faith in him getting the hint at all. It got to the point where you exasperatedly confessed to him while on one of your walks. And that was the day when he finally understood your feelings for him.
“Cole, hold on, I just want to tell you that I really like you, more than a customer, more than a friend. What I’m saying is that I love you.”
He paused and then grew a little flustered and taken aback because in his head, he’s been the one trying to flirt with you. And he thought you were just really oblivious to his hints. But you liked him back? His nerves were through the roof!
“You love me? Well, I love you too. I’ve been meaning to confess to you for a while now. I’ve been dropping hints left and right, and it didn’t seem you were catching on—”
“I wasn’t catching on?! I’ve been dropping hints left and right for you, too!! If anything, you’re more oblivious than me, Cole. I literally called you attractive multiple times.”
“I thought you were just being nice!”
⇢ ˗ˏˋ You sigh at him and then let out a giggle. He stood there a bit embarrassed but happy nonetheless, and then he made the move to wrap his arm around your waist with a nervous smile. You smile back at him and press a kiss against his cheek as you continue to walk around with him, holding each other’s hands. Finally, you were together, your efforts weren’t left in vain, and you couldn’t be happier.

Hey guys! I got really unmotivated so I didn’t complete the requests I got before, unfortunately :’) I want to go back to them at some point, but right now I’m really looking for something to motivate me to write more and expand my palette!
So, I’ll be taking requests for AUs! By AUs I mean specific ones! Give me your strangest, most unique AU ideas.
An AU like modern times can be interesting, but I’m looking for more fantastical stuff currently! Like monsters, vampires, aliens, wings, end of the world, ancient times, angels, I guess omegaverse can be thrown too in lmao? I’m allowing the AUs to get very specific! Though, note I may change some things while writing. If you’re not comfy with that, that’s alright! Just mention that in the request :)
I won’t be doing full on NSFW but they may get a little spicy! Please mention that if that’s what you’re thinking of, and please mention if you’d be uncomfy if that happened to be there! (though be aware it won’t be fully nsfw and mostly be hinted at/have high tension.)
Your AU can be set in the canon location or anywhere else, btw :3 I won’t be counting something like say werewolf farmer x Shane as a “basic” request because it’s still set in Stardew valley :)
Please send in whatever request you have, even if you think it’s basic! There’s no loss to be had here, lol! I may just queue it up because I like it regardless!
Here are the characters I’m allowing for this!
- William Afton
- Scout TF2
- Gordon Freeman (Freeman’s mind/Half life 1 & 2, not HLVRAI!)
- Sugimoto Saichi
- Ogata Hyakunosuke
