Holy Shit, Dude

Holy shit, dude

Happy early birthday and good luck with the requests 🫡

I respect your dedication

I sure hope so. This is me at 11:40 pm on April 21st, 2024 doing the last request.

Headcanons/one-shots of Bullet and Kokonoe celebrating their S/o birthday.

Also happy belated birthday.

You KNOW these two never got proper, normal birthdays. Big yikes.

-Bullet...never had a traditional birthday that most people would want to have. Her mercenary group didn't really do that.

-She did however want to do something for yours when it eventually rolled around the first time since you started dating. However figuring out how to do this from nothing was easier said than done, especially someone of her...personality type.

-Gifts were supposed to be commonplace on birthdays so she figured that was as good a place to start as any. Problem is, she didn't really know kind of gift what was appropriate.

-After much deliberation and some asking around in a very...Bullet kind of way, she settles on a book relating to something you'd particularly shown a lot of interest in.

-She can't shake the feeling of awkwardness and nerves of giving you something, feeling the pressure now more than ever that she was actually doing it.

-You know full well Bullet really tried her best to do something nice for you despite not knowing what birthdays are typically like. You make your gratefulness as apparent as you can, making her let out a breath she didn't know she was holding in relief.

-You thought Bullet's birthday cluelessness was bad? Well at least she had people who cared about her to spend them with. Kokonoe on the other hand...yeah.

-You are not getting a party, you'd have better luck jumping into shark infested water with pork chops in your pants. Being the pragmatist she is, Kokonoe thinks all the hooplah to be a waste of time and money, she has far more important things to be doing.

-She's not cruel though, she's not going to ignore the day entirely. Like Bullet, she'll commemorate the day in a very...'her' way.

-She likely cooks up some kind of weird, never-before seen gadget just for you that she knows you can use in some way, for self defense, missions, or some miscellaneous use.

-Being a scientist, she's a very practical person. Whatever you get is something she knows for a fact you'll be using frequently, not some sentimental bullcrap that'll just collect dust somewhere in your house.

-If she's feeling nicer than usual, she'll also throw in some chocolates from her personal stash in there as well. Collecting the stuff is a hobby for her, one of the only ones she has so it's definitely guaranteed to be the good stuff.

-Once you're alone with her she'll present her gift to you and attempt to casually play it off, but her inexperience is obvious in both her body language and the subtle, soft coloration on her face. It's actually pretty cute, but don't point that out to her.

Happy Birthday, my man. You are growing right now :D Enjoy your birthday and here this. I don't know if this text emoji fit in for you to see full picture ⊹ ࣪ ˖🍰₊˚⊹♡

It looks good on my computer but kinda looks like a thumbs up on my phone funnily enough. In case it doesn't translate to post I have it screenshotted. Much appreciated, my dude.

Bonus request

So, this was a request that was given to me in DMs. @chefskillet1 was the only person to miss the deadline for a request so I decided to give her a free request submission. She asked for HCs about how Izanami and Nine celebrate their S/O's birthday, but Izanami was already done in a previous post so Nine will be done here. This ask will take place after the Dark War before she dies since that feels more natural to me for this post.

-Nine is quite used to celebrating a birthday, she does it all the time for the people important to her like Celica and Trinity, she'll have no qualms doing it for an S/O as well.

-Even after the Dark War and losing a lot of her political power, she can still definitely do something for you. She'll be damned if she doesn't, she got way too close to losing you for comfort, she's fully intent on spoiling you

-She still has more than enough power to reserve an entire building in Ishana specifically for the celebration, getting Celica and the rest of the Heroes to help out, albeit with differing levels of enthusiasm.

-She can be a real slave driver at times, as everyone finds out in her efforts to make everything as perfect as possible. Terumi especially has it bad, though since he's still under the Mind Eater, he can't do much of anything to go against her.

-On the day of your birthday, Celica tells you to come to some place in Ishana you hadn't yet been to before. You hadn't really had time to wander since for the last 10 years you and everyone else were too busy trying to stop a giant ass nuclear hydra from ending the world. You had no reason to not at least see what she was up to.

-Much to your surprise, there's a whole ass party set up just for you, Nine, Celica and the rest of the Heroes having differing energies as they shouted "surprise!". Nine, Celica, Trinity, and Jubei were all quite enthusiastic, Valkenhayn not as much but still wanted to do his part, Terumi doing it rather begrudgingly, and Hakumen expectedly staying silent.

-Gifts of all kinds are laid out on the table nearby, it's pretty easy to tell who each one is from since no two people in this crowd are completely alike. Tea leaves from Valk that you've probably never seen before, a special magic charm from Celica imbued with some of her power, A shiny new katana from Jubei, a special staff handmade by Trinity to enhance your magic, the list goes on.

-Nine had something extra special for you, though, naturally. Her gift is a magic snowglobe of Ishana, shaking it while thinking about any particular part of your home will show your happiest memories there, however few and far between they may or may not be.

-The day you first met Nine and all your other friends, the day you two finally hooked up, your wedding if you're already married, the party of historical proportions when the Black Beast was finally slain, and many more you can revisit with this one contraption.

-Terumi couldn't be fucked to get you anything, so to make up for that Nine makes him do party tricks. Maximum embarrassment for the bastard and maximum amusement for the rest of you. Though he would never admit, even Hakumen couldn't help a scoff of amusement here and there, taking pleasure in the humiliation of the man who'd caused him so much suffering.

-Nine may be brash, aggressive, and hot-headed, but it's moments like these where you're reminded that she really does care about you, more than life itself. She'd go to hell and back to ensure you and her family are safe and sound.

Chie, Yukiko, and Wagner being surprised by their S/O for their birthday and them also finding out their S/O is a master at cooking and baking? (Honestly they need an s/o who can cook since canonically they all suck at it.)

Fun fact, I almost had this ask finished by but my fucking browser crashed and I lost everything. God fucking dammit.

-Chie's cooking had...improved a bit at least, though that would be rather generous. People weren't in danger of going catatonic from it, but it was just bland.

-She tended to end up using so many flavors at once that they all cancelled each other out and made something completely flavorless, almost like eating water.

-You thankfully were not nearly as helpless, so much so that you ended up being assigned to making the cake for her party that the rest of the IT were throwing for her. Yukiko and Rise were rather disappointed they couldn't do it but the boys all breathed a collective sigh of relief.

-What you end up making isn't good, it's really good. The aforementioned ladies weren't even mad about it anymore once they had a taste of it for themselves. Chie especially was happy about it, and proud to call herself your girlfriend in that moment.

-She definitely knows who she's relinquishing cooking duty to when you eventually get a place together.

-Until that time comes though, expect to get a lot more requests from her to make her lunch most days. It'd be a reason for her to look forward to school now.

-Yukiko was in a similar situation to Chie in regards to her cooking skills, or lack thereof. Thankfully she's pretty aware of it and is trying to improve, as much of a mixed bag as that is sometimes.

-You'd suggested spending a day at the Amagi inn together to celebrate her birthday, let her relax and take advantage of it's services for once and not have to worry about taking care of guests.

-Naturally given your hobby, you end up doing some cooking beforehand, making a nice homemade dinner for both of you to enjoy. Yukiko had known you were a cook but hadn't yet had the chance to try for herself.

-The moment Yukiko puts the fork to her mouth she instantly gushes about how good it is, quite the contrast to her own skills. She very quickly scarfs if down despite her attempts to control herself.

-She then has the spontaneous idea to make a date out baking cookies together using the inn's kitchen with you teaching her how along the way.

-She has some...interesting ideas to say the least. Mostly not in a good way. Odd ideas for ingredients/flavors to use, wrong ideas about how to use kitchen equipment, and everything in between.

-You nearly have a heart attack when she suggests setting the oven to a higher temperature so that they bake faster. You just barely manage to talk her out of it so that she doesn't start a fire, knowing damn well what she would do if left unchecked.

-Wagner had been fully aware for a while now that cooking was not her forte, after several failed attempts. She knew it was for the better not to try again as well.

-Despite her snide attitude, she learned to be grateful for anyone who provides food for her, and an S/O who can cook quality scratch meals is definitely an important box to be checked for her in a relationship.

-Her birthday rolled around and you decided to make something a little extra special for her. Using your experience you used an entire week taking what you learned cooking in general and about what she liked best in a dish to make what you felt would be her new favorite food.

-Wagner was a big fan of tempura in particular so that was your focus. Opening up the box with the food inside, she could feel her stomach rumbling as she looked at it.

-She'd heard many times before that cooking was a labor of love. An activity that one continued to get better at when they cooked for the people they cared about. By that logic how much you loved her was practically palpable in every bite.

-As you go about the rest of the day together celebrating her special day, she still can't get that food off her mind. She's not exactly one to admit things out loud too much of the time, but she does sincerely admit how grateful she is.

-What she can't seem to figure out how to communicate though is that it might just be the best damn thing she's eaten in her life, and that really says something considering the type of lifestyle she was born into. She's absolutely going to request you recreate that recipe more often.

Thinking about if they adapted persona 3-5 into live action movies and made every protagonist be played by Ryan Gosling

Ken from Barbie is the protag of all the modern Persona games confirmed.
