Code Vein Headcanons - Tumblr Posts
[I don’t know how well received this will be but it’s gonna be long so heads up!]
Random hcs I just thought of pt.1
Louis Amamiya
- So I have this idea that since he’s a heavy book lover, he would cherish those babies and get so hurt when he sees a book that’s been water damaged or ruined.
- Especially when someone decides to whack someone else upside the head with them. Like you could see his face visibly change to horror and you just hear this squeak at the book abuse he’s just witnessed.
- I feel he would read some average books but when he’s bored? He reads some of the more outlandish things he’s found. A book about the history of games? He’s read it once when he didn’t understand what the hell Murasame was going on about. Curious about the war of Kudzu? He’ll be somewhere reading books about plant warfare. This man will read the most unexpected topics and he will sometimes rattle off those weird ass facts that he learns and you can’t tell me otherwise
- I feel like in his pursuit of knowledge he would be amazing at still life art because identifying wildlife would be crucial but if you ask him to draw in his spare time? he will draw you a stick figure because he’s only good at drawing plants and that’s all you’ll get out of him.
Yakumo Shinonome
- Alright so I feel this teddy bear of a man can’t draw anything imaginative to save his life but give him rulers, pencils and what you need and he will be able to come up with a blueprint and start building what you asked for so long as you give him a base idea
- I would feel because of that he and Louis got along because yeah he has a past with mercenary work but also the fact that he was able to convert the church they found into the home base we know and love today? I’m certain the two of them would bond because the math and the damn work it would take to make sure anything was more or less structurally sound would impress Louis because let’s be real, that sweet nerd probably wouldn’t be that great with building like Yakumo would
Mia Karnstein
- So she strikes me as the type to admire people who have musical talent because she herself doesn’t have any but I could see her being really good at coming up with the most amazing fairytales to keep Nicola interested
- Also she’s the older sister who I could see helping Nicola through levels before the collapse and would learn how to play games just so she could play with him, especially if he had a hard day
- Speaking of games, I feel like for how sweet she seems to be, her best genre if she played games for fun in her own spare time? Fighting games. Specifically things like Street Fighter or Super Smash Bros and she would be the one who would play either Kirby or Solid snake and there is no in between
- Building off of that, I feel like her and Murasame would’ve became the best of friends because one day Murasame would be strugging with a level and Mia would notice and ask to help and BOOM she absolutely crushes it and now they hang out all the time because of it
- Lastly she always tries to adjust her dress strap but it never tightens as much as she needs it to and she’s always had that luck that any strap she wore would always be too loose on one side no matter how hard she tries to make sure it stay secure and so she just gave up on fixing it after a while and when people point it out, she’s just like “Yeah I know”
[So i’m getting a little bit more confident doing headcanons but I wanna stay sfw for a bit before I make an actual imagine blog and ultimately move into more spicy headcanons since i’m scared i’m not as good with writing some of the characters]
Random hcs I just thought of pt.2
Rin Murasame
- Alright Rin was a Gymnast and I feel like with how awesome and quirky she is, she would be the type to freak out/impress people with her hyper-mobility and I feel like people would’ve found out about it because something would’ve gotten lodged in a weird spot and no one could get it
- Everyone is like ‘well there goes that item’ and when she asks where it is, they just see her bend and squeeze in and grab it and come out so casually while everyone else was blown away
- Also, I could see her making Yakumo squirm because of how loud her joints pop when she does it. Cracking Knuckles? Sounds like she broke something. Popping her back? You could swear she split in two with the sound. Not to mention if she can dislocate something like her shoulders or can turn a body part farther than what most people can do. Like its one of her favorite tricks and while Yakumo and even Louis shudder from it, I feel like Nicola would find it amazing and ask her to do it all the time
- Lastly I feel like before the collapse, when she was in school she took robotics and metal shop and now I can see this tiny girl pretty much being in metal shop working on her projects and she brings that to the table and with help from Yakumo that’s how she became capable of repairing most of the weapons you present her with in home base as well as how she could get game consoles back up and running
- I just overall see her being this smart girl who’s just naturally bubbly and even with everything that’s happened, you give her a chance to flex some of her talents she picked up and she just lights up like a Christmas tree and you can pry this from my cold dead hands
Eva Roux
- Alright I’m coming straight out the gate with this one: Eva knows how to sew, let out, bring in and mend clothes and that’s why Jack’s suit always looks so nice. I feel like this is also why her outfit was ultimately shredded because she would mend it and not too long later it would get torn apart in a fight so after a while she just accepted it staying that way until it gets absolutely crucial to replace it
- You think that stopped Jack from trying to find her a new dress or fabrics though? Hell no! this man is dedicated to her and I fully believe the only reason why he stopped is because everything was too hectic and after a while he gave up but always worried that her dress would snag on something or that it would fall apart at any second
- She once caught Jack singing and when she found out he was tone deaf? This wonderful angel literally convinced him to let her teach him how to sing and it was one of her personal achievements that she to this day keeps close to her heart because whenever she can get him to sing with her? The harmony between the two is awe inspiring
Jack Rutherford
- So like I said in the last hc for Eva, Jack was taught how to sing and wooo boy if you can somehow get him to sing for you, you’re a lucky soul for two reasons: He actually likes you enough to trust you to hear him sing, be it friendly or more and more importantly? This man can SING when he gets into it
- Like you give him a song and if he can sing it, you get to hear that deep husky voice shine in such a way that any one who had the chance to truly hear him sing would just melt
- One thing he will never do, though? You will never catch him willingly singing in a falsetto in front of everyone. Man cares about his pride and despite it sounding amazing, he likes to maintain his reputation of being terrifying to anyone who dares to cross his path
- Does this mean he never uses it? Nope! Contrary to popular belief, he’ll sing like that if he’s alone or really comfortable with someone outside of Eva hearing it which means you gotta get really close for that or else he will threaten you if you so much as breathe a word of it to anyone else
- I could really see his music tastes being slow songs from before the great collapse. With how he dresses? He strikes me as the type to have all those songs meant for romancing people since they’re perfect, whether for setting a mood or just something to listen to that’s pleasing. Also picture the following: You’re dancing with Jack, listening to slow dance songs and you just hear him softly singing them in your ear. You’re welcome
Io
- Okay so Io is innocent about certain topics but I could definitely see her asking you to join her in watching the 35mm reels so she can learn about humans and humanity. Like this would be a movie night with her and just seeing the look on her face as she understands what it means to be human? Heartwarming stuff, man
- Now as Io is learning how to be a human, I could see her wanting to try things from before the collapse. Just her going “I’d like to try a spa day with you.” because she wants to find out why people in movies find them so much fun or how massages are considered relaxing and with how sweet she would be when she asks, it would be impossible to tell her no
- A cute idea I had? Io learning how to do pottery. Like seriously, being able to make her own little novelties? She would love that since as she’s learning, she would need help to make sure she’s doing it right but once she learns? She takes to it like a duck to water and suddenly you see that her collection has suddenly expanded, and she may even give you one of her creations as a gift
[So a heads up, this will be tagged as spoilers since it could apply for one or even two of the endings in Code Vein as well as mentioning parts of Vestiges! This will also be tagged as Code Pain for the sad/dark aspects aspects of it. It’s another long one so without further ado, I bring you more headcanons. Enjoy!]
Coco whens she discovers that you won’t be coming back
- When you first arrived at Home base, she was very standoffish towards you starting out because she was scared to get too close to you. She lost her son and got Kevin killed after letting him walk away with harvested blood beads that she sent him to collect among other things
- Of course it wasn’t a surprise that over time, as you stayed around and bought wares and even helped retrieve memories for her, she began to welcome your face coming through the doors of the church. After some time, you two even spent time together just talking and enjoying each’s other’s company
- So when she didn’t see you come through the doors after going to fight Silva? internally she was devastated, especially if no one came back at all.
- Coco would be very sentimental and would be beating herself up inside for not letting herself show anything if no one came back. Murasame and Davis would definitely be found comforting her as they would be as equally distraught.
- I could see her ultimately leaving Home base due to all the memories it has of you and of everyone else, either to find out what truly happened or because she feels suffocated there.
-Now I would personally say that being the person she is, she would make sure that Murasame and Davis wouldn’t be out of luck on a merchant before she leaves at least
- However, if only you failed to return? Prepare to see her turn cold as stone should anyone ever mention you to her. While everyone openly mourns your death, she would do it privately due to her memories of her own failures.
- If she saw you as family, especially as her child? Complete shut down at the sound of your name. She wouldn’t even want to mention you by name, let alone what you’ve done to attempt to ensure peace for a little longer. After some time, she would be able to ultimately mention you again, but with more of a wistful tone in her voice.
- If she saw you as a lover, I could see her being more open in her mourning in the sense of joining them to leave flowers at your feet at the throne. I could also see her visiting your resting place on occasion. Now she’d never drink or do anything that self destructive but with support from the others, I could see her potentially opening up and attempting to be more welcoming over time, if only to honor your memory.
[I’m so sorry I didn’t put out imagines yesterday! I’m working towards getting my Imagines blog up after I make my rules and move my Code Vein content there! Til that’s all sorted, enjoy some random HCs specifically dedicated to Jack!]
Jack realizing he’s in love with you
- I’d say its one of of those things that builds up over time. He’s just enjoying your company, maybe teasing you in fights and even had helped you sort out how you feel emotionally after having your memories of your past returned.
- If a memory upsets you too much, or someone says something harmful or you feel you’ve failed at something and you get upset to where it’s clear you need a shoulder to cry on? Jack is one of, if not the first one there to offer to listen. After all, he may seem threatening but if you need someone, he’s there to help. At least that’s what he’d be thinking anyways.
- Then he may notice he gets this little twinge of something in his chest when he sees you giggling too much with Yakumo or sitting a little too close to Louis but he wouldn’t act on it because it isn’t anything serious. You’re just spending time with them and being friendly right?
- He may start to struggle to hide it as the feeling grows, especially if he knows he has no reason to feel the way that he does. After all, you two are friends and spending time with other friends happens, right?
- So when someone asks if he’s alright because he can’t hide it anymore and he tries to play off only for someone to say he’s jealous because he likes you? It hits like a ton of bricks.
- Just Oh. Oh. Ohhh. And then he feels so stupid for it because before realizing it, he was just trying to be there after everything between you two in the past and he’s like ‘Well I know what to do next at least.’
Jack confessing and asking you to be his
- With how blunt he can naturally be at times, he wouldn’t skirt around this too much. I mean it’s the end of the world, the worst has already happened and the worst you can say is no.
- So he politely asks to speak to you privately so no one is watching when he asks this. This is something of the heart and despite his cold exterior, he’s actually very sensitive inside and wouldn’t want to embarrass or force you to say yes around everyone, not to mention his own well hidden nervousness.
- If you said no? His face wouldn’t give it away but he would feel like someone stabbed a knife through his chest and blame himself for being so foolish to ask. It’d be dropped quickly but you would be able to feel that things aren’t quite the same anymore. It’d feel like an uncomfortable distance would’ve formed between you two and being around each other would be awkward all around until the feelings went away and maybe even afterwards too.
- If you said yes? You’d see him give this smile that would melt your heart. He’d feel a weight off of his shoulders and you could swear he seemed warmer in his outward appearance. Jack would also pull you to him and even kiss you, if you were fine with that, just to celebrate that you felt the same way he felt about you. After all, love doesn’t come easy after everything you’ve known is gone.
Jack in a relationship
- He’s a man who values his partners so if you snag him? Ohhh be prepared for him to worry over you, even if you can’t see it outwardly. He sees you need help with something? He’s right there by your side when you ask. You need a smile? He’ll tease and joke with you until you’re feeling better. Out fighting and you get hurt? He’s hellbent on killing whatever hurt you and getting you to safety.
- Now he wouldn’t stop you from bonding with everyone though, because you still have a life outside of him and it just wouldn’t be fair to you or anyone else if he tried to hog your attention.
- However if he’s having one of his hard days where he’s thinking back to Queenslayer or any of the events after it? He’ll often want to spend time with you. Just having you near while talking about what bothers him and getting support does wonders for him. Remember how I said he’s sensitive? This is one of the few times it comes out full force and you get to see that his cold exterior is only a mask for someone who cares and wishes that he wasn’t in such a cold reality.
- Once you’ve been with him for a while, even if he’s trying to keep you from worrying, you just KNOW when he’s having a bad day and when it’s time to pull him somewhere to snuggle up to him and just give him some love and affection.
- Jack is also very much one for his relationships being something that isn’t explicitly announced. Like if someone finds out? All he’d say is “Yes, we’re together.” and leave it at that. But if they’re pestering him about what he sees in you or why he began dating you or anything equally personal? Good luck getting him to talk about it. He’d sooner shut it down and tell them his reasons are his than spill anything.
- Same for PDA. He may do little romantic gestures that aren’t overly extravagant but if you ask him to kiss you in front of everyone? He’s more hesitant. He loves you but he also doesn’t like the idea of people seeing and judging every little bit of affection he gives. So to him, he’d only do what he’s okay with within his discretion.
- When he lets the mask drop outside of things that he’s worried about? You just get this warmth as you talk to him and be with him. His touches are gentle and his love of feeling your hands interlocked with his or your head on his shoulder is something that gives him so much peace. He’s definitely one where his biggest love languages would be touching and quality time because while he doesn’t mind getting you gifts to make you happy, nothing beats out spending time with someone you love.
- Just. This man will make sure that despite how much he teases you, you know he loves you with all his heart and he will avenge you if someone dared to so so much as try to harm a hair on your head.
