General Valentina Headcannons (Saw X)

Currently planning the "Valentina lives and becomes an apprentice" AU I've been wanting to write so consider this a precursor to that! (I wasn't kidding when I said I had many headcannons about her so enjoy the ramblings of a mad man <3)

Her full name is Valentina Rosa Hernández

She was 32 years old during the events of Saw X.

This makes her younger than Cecilia & Mateo and older than Diego and Gabriella

Valentina’s birthday is on the 27th of July (thus making her star sign Leo)

Let’s those close to her call her Val for short.

Is still trying to put an exact label on her sexuality but knows for a fact she isn’t straight

Valentina struggles to fully trust and open up to people as she’s been hurt by many throughout her life; she often uses her feisty, sarcastic personality as a shield. Though if you manage to break through this prickly facade, you will find a loyal woman with a lot of love to give.

Valentina loves doing her makeup and is quite the talented makeup artist. It was almost like her pre-work relaxation ritual for the night, doing her makeup while blasting some of her favourite music.

Loves heavy metal and rock music! It was quite rare but when she was able to go to concerts, she’d be in the mosh pit.

As well as having her ears pierced, she’s also got her belly button pierced.

Has a younger half-sister named Carmen who is five years younger than her. Val loves her above all else and is fiercely protective of. Aside from this has no relationship with any of her immediate family.

Growing up it was just Valentina and her father; her mother wasn’t really in the picture. She was really close with her father. However, he passed away when she was 12.

She was then sent to live with her mother, step father and Carmen. Her mother and step-father were cold and neglectful towards her, it was always clear that they didn’t want her there.

 As a result of this she grew into a trouble making teenager.

At first, she was distant from her little sister, envious of the love her mother and step father seemed to give her. However, as the pair grew older Valentina came to realise that the amount of pressure they put on her, even from a young age, was harmful within itself. They didn’t love her, they loved the idea of her and as soon as Carmen strayed from what they wanted she was punished. From that moment onwards Valentina vowed to love and protect her sister.

In fact, she started trying to change her trouble making ways so she could be a better older sister.

Valentina left home the age of 20 after a huge argument with her mother and step-father. The only person she stayed in contact with was Carmen (and she had to fight to stay in contact with her, their mother tried to prevent it but was unsuccessful).

Had little to her name when she left home and ended up couch surfing at friend’s places for a while.

Eventually saves up enough to rent a little place of her own, it was small and little bit rundown but it was hers. Carmen ended up moving in with Valentina after also having a falling out with their parents. Times could be tough but they were happy to have each other.

Valentina always wanted to provide a better life for her sister than what she was able to and this is why Cecilia was able to convince her to join the scam. She promised Valentina a life changing sum of money in exchange for pretending to be a nurse for a couple of days. Valentina had her doubts but at the end of the day, such a large sum of money to pretend to be a nurse for a short period of time??? She’d be a fool not too, after all this was for her sister. And she’d do anything for her sister.

#saw #saw x #saw x valentina #sawposting #saw franchise #saw movies #headcannons #I am so normal about her /j #It's funny that this originally started because I wanted to headcannon a full name and age for her #And then it just spiraled from there lmao #And yes her last name is the same as her actress's pls excuse my lack of creativity there LMAO (I overthink names far too much) #Also something that's silly is I gotta lowkey hype myself up to post any writing I do 'cause I'm worried I'll somehow get it all wrong loll #Which is RIDICULOUS I know haha #But I gotta show my girl the love she deserves #cause I am forever cursed to care about characters who have little to no cannon info about them #also not to be rambling in the tags but y'all can pry sapphic Valentina from my cold dead hands <3

[glitterandgold-cos]

After not doing so for years, I've started writing again and had totally forgotten how much I enjoy it?? And since Saw X is permanently on the brain I'm tempted to write a Valentina survives and becomes an apprentice AU (I know it's probably pretty self indulgent AU since she's arguably more a side character but I LOVE her so much and am very set on the fact she beat her trap so idc haha)

#Valentina my beloved #saw #saw x #saw x valentina #I could ramble for hours about her ngl #I mean I'd be tempted to make an rp blog for her as well but I don't think there's any demand for her character LMAO #Moral of the story I really want to write more and thinking of starting to post fics and stuff here

Since the Malignant brainrot has taken over (alongside the House of Wax brainrot), have some character vs. cosplay of when I cosplayed Madison last year during Halloween month! This cosplay was part of a series in which I did a bunch of horror cosplays with stuff I already had in my closet so the wig isn't perfect (I don't know how curtain bangs work so styling it was an adventure lmao plus I needed it to be longer) but am planning on giving her a wig upgrade soon to match whatever I get for the Gabriel cos!

Needless to say I'm super keen to get started on this project!

The House of Wax brainrot has once again taken over so while I work on some new cosplays, here's some more Vincent Sinclair! Left was the first time I ever cosplayed him back in June 2023, while right was the most recent time I cosplayed him at the beginning of November 2023! I feel like I was able to improve on the makeup side of things and can't wait to work on similar stuff when I cosplay Gabriel May from Malignant (One of my dream cosplays I am so excited to work on it!)

#house of wax #horror #vincent sinclair #sinclair brothers #cosplay #horror cosplay #slasher film #I'm hoping to do an on location shoot for him somewhere sometime this year #Though I have to remake the apron cause it's kind of falling apart lmao #Also peep the mention of one of the characters I'm working on cosplaying this year #I have a type I guess
