A3! Taichi Nanao - Tumblr Posts

taichi seems to be the type to put coffee in a thermos[or just a general reusable metal bottle] and put it in the fridge to get cold. only to go to the fridge a while later, sip the coffee, realize its lukewarm, and then remember the concept behind thermoses.

his solution is to pop an ice cube in the bottle, put it back in the fridge, and hope for the best. [this is totally 100% not based on something i may or may not have just potentially did today :’3]

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?

i thought this'd be funny asf omg so can you sort mankai actors by whether they can whistle or not?? it's okay if u don't but i just think it'd be rlly funny lmaooo

Ajdkfhdnkd this was fun!! I also threw in izumi, matsukawa, and sakoda for funsies!

Can whistle and is good at it: itaru, citron, chikage, tsuzuru, misumi, banri, taichi, azuma, guy, matsukawa, tetsuro

Can whistle mostly well: yuki, kazunari, omi, azami, homare, sakoda

Cannot whistle and is fine with it: sakuya, masumi, muku, juza, sakyo, tsumugi, hisoka

Cannot whistle and is furious/upset about it: tenma, kumon, tasuku, Izumi

AAAA can we PLEASE have sakyo and taichi dad and son bonding headcanons 😭😭

ANON I LOVE THIS IDEA THANK YOU

Mmmmmm, ok, so at first it seems like a very small thing, but sakyo always turns to look at taichi when he is talking so he always show that he is playing attention

Taichi couldn't pinpoint exactly what he was doing at first, and all he knew is that he always got the feeling that sakyo paid attention to him. But when he noticed that he actually moved to have a conversation his lil puppy heart was vv happy

Every time taichi gets a test back he shows it to two people right away, izumi first if the grade is lower, and sakyo first if he got a higher grade than he expected. Sakyo tends to respond with a ‘Good, that's what it should look like.’, because he's gotta look tough >:) but!! He always gives taichi a little pat on the shoulder bc he knows the kid worked very hard

On that note!! Sakyo is very serious about making sure that none of the kids overwork themselves or get burned out. He specifically makes sure that he tracks how long taichi has been working on any given thing to make sure he takes breaks

Quite a few times he’s had to pick up taichi off of his desk and tuck him into bed. Often times he checks to see what he was working on, if it’s something that he happens to know about he’ll talk with taichi about it the next morning to give him a little recap and maybe some extra details to impress his teachers with [if he doesn’t know the work he’ll have one of the older kids or adults try and help taichi, usually banri volunteers for this]

Sakyo never goes to sleep if one of the kids are still awake and working, so he will check in on all of them too

Whenever taichi goes out skating sakyo will stop him at the door and make sure he has his helmet and knee pad and elbow pads and a bottle of water and a first aid kit and is your phone charged? And do you have any pocket money in case of an emergency? And- [sakyo, gramps, the kid has already snuck out]

Speaking of! Taichi is a little gremlin and i do believe he’s snuck out before after his curfew, sakyo always notices and watches for him to come home

Every father’s day taichi hand-makes something for the old man (affectionate)

If sakyo has time he’ll take taichi out for something on his birthday, but if he’s busy for the day he’ll ask sakoda to hang with taichi [those two get along like a house on fire!!]

are your reqs open? if they are could i get hcs of the wan wan combi w/ a cosplaying s/o ? thank you !!

Yup! Reqs are always open!

⋆Kazu⋆

Ok, he’s been enamoured with you from day one, but the first time he sees you in cosplay he’s just squealing for a minute straight

How?!?!? How are you so cute?? So handsome!? So pretty!?

If you want him to, he’ll do photoshoots for you at the drop of a hat

I think part of what draws kazu to cosplaying is how intensely artistic it is! You quite literally re-create an entire other being with yourself! How cool is that?!? (he’s very excited ab this if you can't already tell)

He’d absolutely want to get in on the shenanigans >:3

Imagine doing cute couple-y cosplays with him!!! He’ll be bouncing off the walls the second you texted him a pictures of the characters you wanted to do

Tai-chan <3

Omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomg!!!!!!!

If you post your cosplays online just know that he runs a stan account for you,.,bby is your biggest fan

He is just :pleadingeyesemoji: every single time he sees you all dressed up <3

He actually low-key gets nervous when talking to you in cosplay bc in his brain you look so cool and awesome and maybe just a little bit scary with how well-put together you are,.,., he’s just wearing a band-tee [he does not know the band, i’m sorry, he just thought the words “My Chemical Romance” looked cool] and cargo shorts, he feels kinda lame next to you..,.,

Will be too scared to mess up your outfit or (if you happen to be wearing any) smudge your makeup, so he will harness all his willpower to not poke your cute little cheeks or snuggle into you like normal

Now, you’re having none of that. Attack him with kissies and cuddles so he doesn’t cry

Taichi will plunk down on the living room floor and watch the muppets with such intense joy everyone cries end of post

Thinking about how taichi trusts so readily and so strongly,..,like, this is a boy who knows what the world will do to you and yet! and fucking yet!! he trusts his troupe so much. he lied to them. he hurt them. he expected them to hate him, and he still confessed to what he did!!! he met these [i say this lovingly] Fucking Weirdos and went 'heeheehoohoo they're my brothers now >:)'. people warm up to him like nothing. hes so open and good and kind its wild. i remember in the first year when breaking up a fight between banri and juza, taichi was able to get banri away by literally asking him what kind of curry he liked. and this is banri ‘was just beating hyodo’s ass’ ‘literal delinquent’ ‘implied criminal’ [fr he has this one line ab testing the limits of the law and his own body and,..,ban-chan i think we need to have a conversation ab what that last one means bc it cant possibly just be him being redundant ab his fights], and yet there is something ab taichi that makes him go ‘oh huh i better answer this question honestly. ummm beef is good :)’ like????!?!?! this says a lot ab both of them but there’s def something to be said about how taichi nanao is able to get a real asshole to genuinely stop and open up about something as mundane as his favorite food

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.
