Hc that juza 100% did not know that you could dip your finger into (cooled!!!!) wax and it wouldn’t burn. 

Banri found this out when he was showing taichi how to make wax flower petals and was about to dip his finger in the wax when juza lunged over and grabbed his arm. [big sibling protection instincts never go away]. Banri was confused as hell and so was juza but for different reasons 

 Banri: ‘???? why are you grabbing my arm?? You wanna fight or something?’ 

Juza: ‘???? why are you actively trying to BURN YOURSELF??? Are you dumber than I gave you credit for??’ 

 Once it all gets cleared up juza is a teeny bit [read: very much so] embarrassed so he just leaves to go on a walk, while banri finds himself giggly and strangely glad knowing that juza moved that fast to try and ‘protect’ him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(kinda tried a shippy ending sentence here under the cut!)

Were friends supposed to make your chest feel tight like that? Was it weird that he could still feel juza’s strong and steady hand on his wrist?.....was it weird that he might have wanted, just for a second, to hold that hand?

banri and juza hanging out headcanons? :33 like once they get along, what types of stuff would they do together? Hehe,,

ANON I AM LOOKING DIRECTLY AT THIS PROMPT AND I AAAAAAAA

-i think they might go biking together! im preettyyy sure Juza already has a motorcycle but my assumption is that he probably has a bike stashed away somewhere at home.

- Juza and Kumon definitely go out on bike rides often, so Juza has the stamina to go for a good while

-Banri can definitely keep up with him, but he gets kinda tired by the end of the ride (but a good kind of tired, like, the kind where you sleep well afterwards)

-they’ll usually ride out to a park or somewhere nice to take a break from the noisy dorms and they’ll eat sandwiches Omi helped them pack. (Juza also brings a treat with him, pudding, cookies, brownies, pretty much whatever is on hand)

-i think they’d mostly prefer doing things outside rather than inside. It just kinda allows them to space out a bit if they need a minute for quiet and they seem to not get as agitated when outside with some breathing room. 

-I’d like to imagine Banri took Juza to an arcade once and found out just exactly how shit he is at fighting games

-(HOWEVER! Juza is weirdly good at games like Animal Crossing! His camp/town/island always looks really nice and put-together. The only thing he doesn't get is how to interact with some of the villagers. He hates upsetting them so he (somewhat reluctantly) has Banri or Taichi do any interactions for him so he can keep the characters happy.)

-they also tend to tell each other stories from what happened throughout the day, if a teacher said something funny, they saw something strange on a walk, they read a weird fact or an interesting article

-Banri’s stories tend to be a bit more humorous because he prides himself on being able to make people laugh

-while Juza’s stories tend to be a bit more mundane, yet still engaging 

- “You remember that cat I told you lives around this street?” -J

-“ya what's up with it?” -B

-“I saw it holding a piece of fish cut into a triangle, dunno how the hell it did that.”-J

 -“dumbass that was obviously Misumi”-B

 -“Misumi ain’t a fucking cat??”-J

-All in all they’re two dweebs who i would very much like to hug thank u very much

hi! if x reader headcanons are okay, could you write some with omi and a short and/or chubby s/o? 🥺 thanks so much if you do!

CUTECUTECUTECUTECUTEEEEEEE! anon bby i am also tiny and soft so this just made my omi loving brain go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

okokokokokok, let's get down to business!

-the hugs

-the fucking hugs

-holy shit the hugs

-this man is giant so he’ll usually have to bend down a bit to give you a proper hug but he says it's worth the back pain (he’s exaggerating dw <3)

-like, he's super warm and cozy and he just loves hugging and holding his s/o. He adores keeping physical contact with you at all times so even while he’s cooking or working on something he’ll want to be in arm’s reach of you. [he’ll absentmindedly squish your cheek sometimes and waaaajnckjndkfvdshf]

-if you don't particularly like physical contact dw!!! Omi is all about communication and making sure you both feel comfy, so he’ll always ask before touching you or getting closer. If you don't like it at all he’ll simply find other ways to express his affection!

-there’s a part of his wall in his dorm room that has a bunch of pictures and cheesy little love notes you’ve written to each other taped to the wall with some pretty brown patterned washi tape. They’re all specifically placed to be at your eye level so you don't have to get on your tiptoes or climb anything to see the papers at the top. It was originally a surprise for you for your first anniversary! You call it your little collage and over time you both add pictures and little mementos like dried flowers or museum tickets.

-not in a mean way, but he will occasionally rest something on your head just to ease the weight off of his wrist for a second, you just happen to be at the perfect height I’m sorry babe. This has included everything from a small book, to a stack of papers, to a FUCKING FRYING PAN OMI BABY ANGEL WHAT’RE YOU DOING?? (dw it wasn’t hot yet!!!)

-one time when baking brownies with him, you two decided to chill on the couch to wait for them to finish baking. It was so cozy and warm and comforting that both of you dozed off and didn’t hear the alarm go off. Just about a minute after it finished, Omi's internal baking clock went off and he shot up and ran to get to the oven. Unfortunately the way he got up knocked you to the carpeted floor and you just kinda sat there laughing at your omimi

-(he didn't notice at first because he was half-asleep, but when he did, he ran back over to you to make sure you weren't hurt. It was adorable to see him run over to you with the oven mitts on, tray in one hand, messy hair, and the most concerned look on his face <3)

-you’re both so baby it’s just plain heartwarming :)

uwu can i request hcs for sakoda reacting to reader giving him a fried shrimp bento?

-YES YES YES YES YES SADOKA APPRECIATION TIMEEEE!!!!!

-I LOVE HIM SO MUCH WAA

-He's puppy,,,mmncnbmbcb

-His first reaction is actually to ask who to pass it along to!

-“Yooo! This smells super good! Didn't know you could cook so awesomely!” he laughs, unrestrained and loud. Tilting his head he asks, “So! Who's this one for? The boss? Ooo, or the boss lady? Oh wait wait wait, is it for Fushimi so he can check your recipe?”

-Once you tell him the lunch is actually for him, his jaw will drop for a second, then his shocked expression will morph into the biggest grin you could imagine!!

-You can almost see stars in his eyes and little puppy ears perking up! If he had a tail it’d be waggin’!

-His favorite food!!!! Made specially for him!!! From you!!! For him?!?!?!!? :D

-If you’ve handed it to him at the beginning of the day he’ll literally be excited for it all day long and during lunch he will not stop telling Sakyo about how you made lunch for him!!!

-But if you give it to him roughly around lunchtime, he will plunk down on the floor right then and there and share the lunch with you!

-“Ooo this piece looks super good!! Ok here here, I’ll cut it in haaalf” (he’s struggling a bit with the chopsticks, give him a moment...) “GOT IT!!! Ok now say ‘aaaa’” :D

-He’s gonna try his best that night to make you a lunch for tomorrow, and with a teeny bit of help from Tsuzuru he’s made a super cute little lunch for you!

Can i request hcs for a cosplayer s/o and itaru? please take care~

-Omgggg he is your number one fan!!!!!!

-Hyping you up 24/7!

-You look awesome!!!!!!! Woooooooo!!!

-He’ll always try to help in any way he can in terms of putting together looks.

-Is this prop accurate? He’s already pulling up high-quality images of the character’s prop from at least 3 angles for you to check.

-Having trouble carrying your bags at an event while decked out in foam armor? He’s got all of them don't worry bby!!

-He’s very useful in terms of helping to check the accuracy of little details with his encyclopedic knowledge of all the things he’s interested in.

-He will also nag you to make sure that whatever you’re wearing is comfortable, and that if you wear any makeup, you always check for harsh chemicals and clean it off properly as soon as you can. <3

-He tends to chill out with any physical affection when you’re cosplaying because he doesn't want to mess up any of it, so he’ll stick to just holding your hand (cutieeee waaa)

-He seems to keep better tabs on your inventory than you do, so every now and then he’ll throw a mini palette at you or a bottle of foundation or whatever product you’re running low on.

-“Yo, you don’t have any nice purple shades left and I know you’re about to put together a cosplay of that alien character, so I got you this palette. I think it should be good enough. Oh right! I also got a bottle of that mi-cellular water thing you use, this one should be gentler on your skin.” (he can never remember how to say ‘micellar water’)

-Also super good at cleaning makeup brushes, so if you’re exhausted at the end of the day you can pretty much just toss them all to him and pass out, when you wake up they’ll all be nice and clean!

Tenma once put his hand flat on the hot end of an iron because he "didn't know where the heat came out of". Yeaaa, that hand burned and it was real ouchie for about a week. Thankfully, Misumi helped him out with holding things around the dorm. As far as anyone at school knows, he got burned while catching a hot pan that would have fallen on his director, like the total gentleman he is. (Banri laughs his ass off every time one of the kids from Tenma's class comes by Mankai to check on the ‘hero’.)

tenma with a really affectionate and positive s/o ☆ gn pronouns please ♡

-he can't handle thisssss aaaAAAAAAAAAA

-you’re too cute for him, he’s gonna implode

-like, he adores when you grab his hand when you’re out walking but his face is so red waaaa

-i feel like he tries so hard to be smooth but he gets flustered really easily

-his logic is this: ok, i’ve done so many romantic scenes and filmed at least 10 kisses, i can definitely hold their hand!! I’ll just.,.,.,casually grab it while we’re walking..anddd

-no he can't </3

-it just feels so different when it's his real-life s/o!!! It's so nerve-wracking!! So scary!! They're so cool.,so cute.,

-So he gets very red in the face (it's quite cute!!!)

-if he ever really wants to hold your hand he’ll pull softly on you sleeve or poke your shoulder,..,babeyy.,.,

-He really does adore hugs but if you don't warn him beforehand he’ll make this little noise of surprise because he isn't 100% used to casual affection (he does really love it.,,.he feels hella stiff but i assure you he’s melting on the inside)

- when embarrassed he kinda presses his lips together in a line and it's so cute looking gsakndjfskndndk

-the most he really can do in public is ruffle your hair a bit, but behind closed doors he’s one hell of a cuddlebug

-very quiet when hugging you too! He just can’t understand how magical it feels and he thinks if he opens his mouth he’ll say something stupid, so he’s content to sit there for hours in comfortable silence

-your positivity and praise tho?

-oh honey please he already has an inflated ego (/jkjkjkjkjkjk)

-truly though, i feel like tenma is, on a fundamental level, quite in need of a good bit of genuine validation, so hearing you comment on something he did really well? Nmnmnmnmn tenma melting part 2

-if you ever happen to sit in on a practice or rehearsal and comment specifically on something he does well, he will have to literally walk away because he’s so red in the face and so so so happy about it

-all in all he’s quite new to being so vulnerable and trusting with someone else, but he really is a sweet kid, i promise you that

CONTENT WARNING: this piece is about disordered eating [nothing very graphic, but mentions of some of the milder side effects of not eating well for a somewhat extended period of time] so please please take caution in reading

I honestly think Taichi may struggle with eating properly. Like, I can see him feeling super nervous during the middle of spring, because ‘oh jeez, summer is coming and I totally gained weight, I know I did, ah shit.,,’. He’d get worried about how he has a smaller frame compared to the other guys in Mankai, and especially the guys in his troupe. Like, Omi is huge. When he’s in a bad headspace, just standing up near Omi makes him feel so scrawny and pathetic. So he starts eating in a very unbalanced manner. While simultaneously trying to lose his ‘winter weight’ and gain muscle, Taichi starts skipping meals and doing strenuous workouts way more often than his body can handle. He starts sneaking into the kitchen late at night, trying to find something to stave off his hunger so he can sleep. He starts feeling dizzy and lightheaded multiple times a day. He can barely help Yuki sew anymore because his seams keep going crooked and he’s just too woozy and ‘God it's warm in here’ ‘Shit I'm freezing’ ‘Dude I’m fine I swear! (I feel sick)’ and he can't keep track of where the needle is going. Two and a half weeks of this. He feels terrible. Not only is his body struggling to keep up with his activities and schoolwork, he feels incredibly guilty for lying to everyone. Because, let's be real, some of the older members of Mankai know something is up with Taichi. Izumi can see that something is wrong, but she can't pinpoint exactly what. Kazu is worried about his peppy little bro seeming so wiped out at 3 in the afternoon. And Omi. Shit. It feels horrible lying to him. And smiling while lying to his face? Taichi feels nauseated every time he does it. 

 “I ate already!!”

“Oh don't worry, I had a big lunch, I’m just not hungry for dinner!”

“Haha, I’ll tell ya if I’m hungry Omimiiii!” 

Three weeks. Three weeks of this. And Taichi is in the kitchen at 2 in the morning, with a sad little sandwich in his cold hand. And he stubs his toe.

And apparently that was the last fucking straw.

And he slides down the side of the countertop to curl up into himself on the floor. And he cries. And he cries. Juza was the first one who found Taichi curled up on the floor and got scared. Unsure of how to proceed, he gently laid his hand on the little boy’s shaking back. Opening his arms, allowing Taichi to lean in and be held, asked who he would be comfortable talking with. And now we have Omi and Izumi sitting on the couch with Taichi, comforting him and listening attentively as he tells them everything. No more lying. Never again. I promise. I'm so sorry. Omi and Izumi glanced at each other for a moment, and the two minds as one body, proceeded to reassure this kid in front of them. “Taichi, its ok” 

“...what?” 

“Listen to me, hey hey, look at me please? Taichi, listen please.” 

“It's okay Nanao. I promise. We love you.” 

“We care about you. I promise.” 

 “It’s alright.” 

“It's okay.” 

“We love you” 

All Taichi can do is cry harder, cradled in Izumi and Omi’s arms, surrounded by the warmest reassurance he’s felt in a while. Omi and Izumi spend the next few hours calming Taichi down, re-assuring him that they’re here for him, that they still love him, that they’ll always love him. that they could never be mad at him for something like this. And Izumi chokes a little bit between ‘like’ and ‘this’. Someone in her care, god, a child in her care was hurting so bad and she couldn't help sooner? She could have helped with this one. She knew what it felt like to…no, she knows what it feels like, she, oh god, she knows and it’s bad. She’s tensed up to hell and back, she will not cry right now, this is not about her. but of course, Taichi notices. And he silently leans his forehead against her shoulder in assumed understanding. Omi notices and he keeps one hand on Taichi’s knee and one hand slides to the middle of Izumi’s back. Warm. Solid. Safe.

Tucked up on the couch like this, Taichi falls asleep first. Omi and Izumi can’t bring themselves to sleep yet though, and they both sit there for a little over an hour, in rapt contemplation of the boy between him, and the way he looked younger when he was asleep. There was a quiet comfort in how they both laid a hand each on Taichi’s back, in how Izumi’s hand tentatively searches for Omi’s behind the cushion between them, and how Omi gently catches it, and holds on to her, absolutely swept with a sense of fierce protectiveness, of reverence, and a sickening twist of fear and deep seated care for the two sleeping bodies next to him.

Misumi just so happened to wake up earliest that morning, having planned to cut up some triangle shaped fruits for Natsugumi’s picnic later that day. Yawing and wrapping his crochet blanket [courtesy of Yuki] to bunch up on his shoulders, he sleepily shuffled into the living room, walking to pull aside the curtains to let in some sunlight almost on autopilot, when he stopped in the middle of the carpet, standing stock still. Oh boy. Something deeeefinitely happened here. Something not very nice at all. As quiet as he could, Misumi tip-toed over to the couch, gently laying his blanket over Taichi and Omi, and slid off his hoodie to cover up Izumi. As darling as they looked, all cuddled up, Misumi’s heart absolutely ached seeing how desperately it seemed Taichi was clutching onto the hem of Omi’s shirt, how protectively the two adults had been sitting around Taichi. Putting aside the fruit for now, Misumi thought it best to put on a pot of water to make some black tea for the little group when they woke up. It’s what his grandfather did whenever Misumi was feeling all sad and run-down. While the water boiled he snuck around to the rooms of anyone he guessed could have been awake that early, Chikage and Itaru, Tasuku, Kazunari and Kumon, he even flagged down Kamekichi and asked him to keep the living room clear of any visitors till the trio woke up. Bustling around the kitchen, he couldnt help but softly giggle as he heard Taichi yawn and stretch out, one arm hanging off of the couch, and Misumi caught himself blushing a little as he turned around to see Omi [still half asleep], pulling Izumi closer, who, in turn, snuggled in, with her hand resting on the back of Taichi’s head. Pretty cute.
