Order Up!

You made your way across the street, breath visible in the air from the cold. You can see the cafe just ahead of you, the large windows allowing a glimpse at the other people inside. Coats draped over their chairs enjoying the warmth as they sip their coffee. You sighed slightly seeing everyone was there with someone. There was no one sitting alone at one of the empty tables for two, looking up and down from their phone and scanning the cafe.

You were the first one to arrive, so the person checking their phone and looking about anxiously would have to be you. You huffed lightly as you pushed the weighted door to the establishment open. Finding an empty table near the window you set your coat on one of the chairs and walked to the counter hoping to find something to enjoy while you waited on your date.

After ordering your drink you stood waiting, eyeing the door each time it opened and the bells on it chimed. Each time it was a different couple. Before you could turn your head at the bells again your name is called by the barista and you grab your drink from them, giving a 'thank you' as you do. You then feel a tap on your shoulder and hear a friendly "Hey!"

Turning around you see a man with pink hair, a yellow scarf, and a red top.

"Couldn't help overhearing, you're Y/N right? Name's Pokkle!" He held his hand out to shake and you giggled a bit.

"Yep, that's me! Nice to meet you Pokkle!" You shooke his hand and you both laughed a little.

"Sorry, don't know if you're supposed to shake hands on a first date or not." He laughed awkwardly and scratched the back of his head.

You both went to your table and he set his things down before getting a drink at the counter. He came back with the cup and sat down across from you.

"So, Y/N, what do you like to do?" He took a swig of his drink but teared up a bit as he burned his tongue.

"I'm into drawing, baking, and reading, but I like watching anime too." He nodded and smiled.

"So, you're a pretty creative person, nice! What do you like to draw?" He leaned one of his arms on the table as he listened. As you talked about the things you drew he took a sip of his drink, this time a lot more careful not to burn his tongue.

"But yeah, that's what I draw for the most part. What do you like to do? Do you draw too?"

"Pshh, not that well. I'm working on it though. I'm a magical beast hunter, I have to be good at sketches, especially of animals. They aren't great right now, but I've made some progress on them. Wanna see?" He made a grab for his messenger bag.

"Oh, I'd love too!" You leaned closer enthusiastic to see what he was able to draw. He dug around for a minute in his bage before pulling out a few papers.

"Most of em aren't magical beasts, I'm practicing drawing some more regular animals for anatomy. But these two are actual magical beasts." He pointed at two of the drawings.

"Oh my god these are so cool!" The drawings were not nearly as bad as he had made them out to be. They were done quite well and were even shaded quite realistically. "I don't know why you talk down about them, they're very pretty."

Pokkle blushed briefly and looked away. "Well, uh, anyways, do you like animals?"

You two continued talking about your hobbies and interests, you'd occasionally look back at the drawings and admire them. After pressing further he told you that one of the two drawings was of a more common magical beast found in woodland areas. They're pretty cute and they're herbivores so a lot of magical beast hunters practice drawing them since they sit still for hours.

The other one was an aquatic magical beast. Apparently the first one he'd found on his own but it was already a known one. You showed him some of the art you had made on your phone and you helped critique each other. Where to rework anatomy, how to fix the pose so it had more flow.

"Hey have you seen Harry Potter by any chance?"

"Yea I have! You?"

"Yep! Watched all of the movies twice." He had a very proud look on his face as he said that.

"I've read all the books. Don't get me wrong the movies were great, but the books had a lot of stuff that got cut out."

"Yeah, that's true, I've only read the first two but I did see the difference."

"Oh! What house are you?"

"I'm gryffindor I think, I took that quiz a while ago so it might have actually been hufflepuff."

"No kidding! I'm a gryffindor too!"

Harry Potter stayed the topic of conversation for a good while, just until both of your drinks now sat empty, foam staining the sides of the cups. You played with your cup's handle, fidgeting while you talked.

Pokkle eventually took notice of your hand fidgeting with the cup handle.

"Hey, sick tattoo!"

"Oh, thanks! It's a henna tattoo, I've got it on my other arm too." You held out both your arms so he could look at your tattoos better.

"They're beautiful, the detail is crazy! Do you have any other tattoos?" He looked from your arms to meet your gaze again.

"Yeah! I've got a couple more!" You showed him a some of your other tattoos, talking about where you had gotten them and what they meant for you. Pokkle thought they were all so beautiful.

"Do you have any tattoos?"

"Nah, not yet. I've been thinkin about getting one but I'm not sure what I want yet. I want it to be something important to me."

"What about a magical beast? You can draw them really well so you could even draw the tattoo yourself."

"Maybe, if I do get one though I'd probably want to get a tattoo of one that I discovered."

Both of you enjoyed your time, talking on and on as the hours ticked by. You'd both refilled your drinks a couple of times now. Pokkle never failing to burn his tongue trying to drink his too soon. Eventually you both had to leave as the shop was closing soon. Customers left and employees started stacking the chairs on the tables.

It wasn't quite as loud anymore, no more conversations from other tables drowning you or Pokkle out. Now the only others were people working or on their laptops.

Neither of you really wanted to leave, you enjoyed talking so much and there was still so much to discuss. But you still both had to head out for the time.

You both stood just at the door, finishing your conversation.

"This was awesome, I loved meeting you!" He said, his voice not as loud with no other patrons to speak over anymore. He had a very nice voice.

"I loved meeting you too, I'd love to do this again sometime!"

"For sure! Text me sometime, I'd love to hear from you again!"

"Will do!" You smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek before walking off in your direction, waving goodbye to him for now.

He stood there with a big smile waving to you too before turning around and walking off as well. About 2 minutes later you felt your phone buzz. Opening it you found a new text from Pokkle.

"😚"

I am so sorry this ask took so long, I normally don't write things this long but wanted to challenge myself! Hopefully you liked this! I covered as much stuff as I possibly could!

HxH Random Thought/Headcanon Time

TRIGGER WARNING: Mentions of dissociating, torture (I'm talking the freaky renaissance torture stuff) abuse, and trauma

I wanted to talk a little about the fight between Gon and Hanzo. It's really intriguing to me because of how different Hanzo acts during the match, compared to his usual self.

I've gathered that he definitely didn't enjoy any of it and really tried to go easy on Gon. He looked extremely uncomfortable after breaking Gon's arm. And even though Hanzo is a master of torture, he really went easy on him. Throughout the whole match, Gon was beaten up pretty badly by Hanzo and of course, had his arm broken. But every time Hanzo would punch or kick Gon, he would only do it once and pause before punching or kicking him again. He gave him chance and chance again to give up.

And even when he tried reasoning with Gon, it was never demeaning or insulting. It was reasoning. And when he tried to reason with him again when he was doing the handstand thing, what he told him was, "At this point in time, you have no hope of defeating me." He said, "At this point in time." Not "Never," or anything the like. He could very well have caused Gon to need amputation of his arm or legs if he wanted by breaking his bones badly enough in several places so that they would be past repair. But he never did. In fact, when he did break Gon's arm it was a "clean break," and "easily set." Satotz even told Gon that his arm would be even stronger once it healed.

But something I noticed and have been thinking about is that maybe Hanzo was trying to dissociate during the match. When Gon and Hanzo first enter the match and are just walking to the center of the room, we see Gon looking at Hanzo and keeping an eye on his opponent. But when we look at Hanzo, we get a clear shot of him staring off at nothing. He looks like he's zoning out.

Now, I doubt that if he was dissociated that it was during the whole match if at all. Some sources have said that people are unable to talk while dissociated while others have claimed they are able to. But I think he would likely have been doing this out of habit and as a trauma response. And it would make total sense for him to do this. He is literally a ninja. I know it gets brushed off as "Oh haha, the weird ninja guy, is he from Naruto or something?"

But we actually see a glimpse of what Hanzo's training is like and it's brutal.

In the first image, it shows him and others being hung upside down by their feet. It isn't as if they're wearing a harness and just pull themselves back up when they want, their legs are literally bound together with rope or bandage and they're just hanging there. Have you ever tried hanging upside down on the monkey bars as a kid? You know how after a while it's painful and you get dizzy? They likely had to stay like this for a while.

The next image we were shown freaked me out a bit more. While not as extreme, this is very similar to "Quartering." An execution method in which the victim had each limb tied and attached to a horse and then they would have the horse go in opposite directions, ripping them apart. They are doing the same thing to him but with more ropes and people instead of horses. And they did this to him from a very young age. In all of these images (not just the two above), he always portrays the other people as taller or bigger and him being smaller. These are events that happened when he was very young. He claims to have been training from the day he was born (probably impossible) but to him, this might actually be accurate.

He had killed someone by the age of 12. It doesn't seem like a big deal because also in HxH is Killua a 12-year-old ex-assassin. But seriously. Could you imagine being made to do that before you were even 12? That is horrifying, not to mention any other traumas he may have experienced, and from what he shows us, they were awful. But this is where it makes sense that he thinks he's been training from the day he was born. Obviously, training is all he's been doing his whole life, I believe that but he was traumatized, there is no debate, there is no way he could have gone through all that without trauma.

When people are traumatized one of the responses is dissociation. It can be voluntary but also involuntary. With dissociating the person forgets everything that happened. It can protect the person from remembering a traumatic event. It really isn't a stretch to say he likely dissociates intentionally when he does things like torturing. He obviously has some coping methods (be them healthy or not) for when he's in those situations. When explaining why he didn't straight-up torture Gon he says, "I expect when I torture someone, my victim will despise me for the rest of their life. It's more effective and less stressful."

Having to torture someone who doesn't hate him is stressful and he literally admits it himself. He likely wanted to dissociate from the fight because it gave him a lot of emotional distress, but Gon just wouldn't hate him no matter what, hence why maybe he wasn't able to dissociate and became more and more agitated and escalated to threatening dismemberment of his legs. It's not like it was a short escalation, this was over 3 hours of him having to beat up Gon, something causing him a lot of distress, be judged and berated by the people watching who he had wanted to bond with some of them, adding humiliation to the mix, he is unable to dissociate and cope, Gon manages to kick him while his guard is down and cause him more humiliation and now physical pain, and the cherry on top is Hanzo's own impossibly high standards.

We've seen more than once during the exam that Hanzo has very high standards for himself, feeling defeated and like a failure when having to get more badges than he bargained for, and becoming angry with himself for coming in third place at trick tower.

It's really no wonder that he threatened to cut off Gon's legs and had a bit of a tantrum before threatening to just kill him. But keep in mind he never actually did it. And I don't think he actually intended to. I think he wanted to try and scare Gon into finally surrendering, and when Gon brought him back to reality with the reasoning of him being disqualified if he cut his legs off, he became frustrated and overwhelmed. He can't even speak for that moment and doesn't know what to say.

That's why he then threatens to kill Gon as a final attempt to make him back down. But he actually gives it away that he didn't intend to kill Gon at all. When He tries to reason once more and Gon explains that he needs to see his dad and that it's his only chance, Hanzo says, "So, logic had nothing to do with it," to himself. He thought Gon was playing mind games with him too, even more reason that he would become emotionally distressed so easily. But he was threatening Gon with killing him because he thought that it would break through any mind games he was playing and end the match.

But in realizing, it wasn't the case he finally gave up. That's why I just can't see Hanzo as a bad person.

I don't know a ton about dissociation, as I don't experience it and I am not a psychologist. I have done a lot of research on DID, but not dissociation on its own, so I would absolutely love to hear from anyone who experiences it or knows more about it if you want to add more and correct me on something. I tried not to mention anything about dissociation that I didn't fact-check from multiple sources.

Imagine your favorite hxh characters to write for cuddling with their s/o for the first time 🥺

Ooh yay! My favorite characters!

-Cheetu is very physically affectionate, I doubt it'd take long for y'all to start cuddling together

-You're both probably chilling and you just sort of end up cuddling

-He's comfier than whatever wall or tree you're leaning on and he'll take any affection he can get

-I actually picture it being embarrassing for him at first

-You laying against him and cuddling is gonna make him so damn happy he will immediately start purring

-It's not the quiet kind either. Ever heard a cheetah purr? Loud as hell. And it's not slow, it's like a motor

-You think it's adorable and start teasing him

-He's shockingly very flustered

-You have to reassure him it's fine and you like it

-You cuddle him again and he keeps purring this time

-He's a lot more physically affectionate afterward

-He will squeeze you a lot, he's very happy you're there and just wants to give you all his love

-He'll often have his arm around you but he isn't going to initiate cuddles first

-If you start cuddling him he's really nonchalant

-You might hear him chuckle but apart from that he'll just pull you closer and relax

-Don't get him wrong, he loves that you're cuddling him, but he's just really chill about it

-Might actually play with your hair or pat your head

-He's really great to cuddle though, he's big and warm and fluffy, perfect!

-Even after he'll usually let you initiate cuddles if he's had a bad day though he might initiate

-If you want cuddles but he can't at the moment he'll pat your head and promise them later

-Oh boy, you thought Cheetu was flustered, this guy just malfunctions

-He is absolutely tomato red

-Probably speechless for a second

-Once he's functioning again he'll just slowly wrap his arms and tail around you

-He's got a big happy smile

-He's screaming internally and he's so excited

-He'll eventually calm down and he feel like he can relax with you

-Conversation might be awkward at first but he just ends up giving you a lot of compliments

A-Was probably by accident, I bet it was like the middle of the hunter exam where they're collecting badges

-Y'all teamed up since you'd already made friends and all that before the exam

-It's the middle of the night, you're exhausted so you end up falling asleep sitting next to him

-He can stay awake much longer since he's a ninja so he's kind of keeping watch

-Aaaand your head falls on his shoulder

-He will whip his head around so fast, he thinks your an enemy but when he sees it's you he doesn't know what to do

-He just kind of sits there with a nosebleed and internally fist pumping

-Heaven forbid you hug his arm or side in your sleep, his soul might just leave his body

-Most likely he just sits there enjoying it and trying not to wake you up til morning

-If you're especially adorable and make cute noises in your sleep or if you straight up start full-on cuddling him he might kiss the top of your head

Could you do some headcanons of Meleoron and his S/O going to a convention together.

Oooh I love this!

-Meleoron loves conventions, I've mentioned this before in another headcanon

-He feels insecure about his body being a chimera ant now and feels like he scares people

-But when he's at a con he fits right in. Everyone is dressed up as different characters, some very scary. So he doesn't have to worry at all about feeling out of place

-That and people often go up to him to complement his "cosplay"

-He would be absolutely thrilled to go to a convention with you

-Especially if you're really into cosplay

-He probably won't cosplay, but he's happy to help you with your cosplay

-He goes to as many conventions with you as he can, it's the one time you two can have sort of a date without him worrying about being seen as a monster

-He's a lot more confident at conventions, and a little more extroverted because of it.

-Definitely knows some of the people that have panels etc.

-But when he gets socially drained you two go to a quieter area just outside for a while to recollect.

-And probably so he can smoke

-He really loves when people at cons ask about his tail and how he made it so animated and life-like. He'll just tell them it's a secret.

-He loves the praise he gets from the other cosplayers, it really boosts his self-esteem, he always leaves feeling really happy

-But when he's with you, he'll bring more attention to whatever cosplay you've made.

-If there's a long line for something he might use "God's Accomplice" to get the two of you in without waiting forever.

-If you're new to cons he's really excited to show you around.

-You're both on the lookout for cool merch

-You two basically spend as much time as possible at the con, no matter how many days it is

-Afterwards you're both very tired, especially socially, so when you get home you both just cuddle and go to sleep

Hey I just wanted to tell you I love your work and it always makes my day to see it💗💖💕

Aww, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy it!
