#I see Hisoka's arc of looking for comfort with pure glee. This is what healing is all about.

thinking about how Hisoka started out not wanting any material things to help him sleep because he wanted to be able to fall asleep in any situation, even uncomfortable ones, and how Mankai gradually gifted him things to help him sleep, that he first was warry about but soon enough he started to collect

and the boy who started out with nothing in his corner of his room now has a good pillow, countless plushies, which he always considers is a perfect gift, expertise on good pillows, an eyemask for sleeping purpose, welcoming cozy blankets, and even appropriated himself the coffin in the storage room for perfect napping spot, coffin that he filled with pillows and plushies and find ways to keep locked shut so Tasuku doesn’t drag him out of it (or else he becomes evil on purpose), and now he gets to complain everytime someone slightly disturb his sleep.

He agreed on rooming with Homare because he had such a deep sleep that he would have in theory not been bothered by his loud behavior, and instead he grew more and more irritated with it the more people taught him about cocooning because now his sleep is sacred.

And the lonely “nothing allowed to sleep” rhetoric, was traded with “gotta be hugging something no matter what” which led him to have nap and cuddle buddies like Azuma.

And i think it’s really just a peak character arc, to be someone who denied himself all sort of little comfort to not get used to it, to then become an hedonist plushy bot constantly seeking comfort he’s now allowed and expected to have. As he deserves.

#ichatalks about a3 #also ngl rant inspired by the fact i just put a hot bottle and a hot-plushy with me under my two covers to watch tv #on my sofa covered in 27 plushies and 6 pillows and i'm just ah yes this is the life #and as someone who also denied myself all of that just a few years ago and had to slowly learn to spoil myself #only for it now to be completely out of control but also just the coziest cozy of the whole cozy world? #I see Hisoka's arc of looking for comfort with pure glee. This is what healing is all about. #Comfy. #i also sleep with a sleep eyemask so like #i' was always bothered by slight lights during sleep and would cover them when i could else i'd be soo annoyed #and a few years ago i was crashing at a friend's place when i left my mom's house #and i couldn't keep the shutter closed bc it was summer and we needed to have all the air inside #so my friend - very concerned - bought me an eyemask and i was just. so confused. because i never considered it a possibility #tried it on and now? I'm content with any eyemask i can have. It's truly really the sleepy comfy mode. #like my plush collection only really started when i was like. 24? #it really started end 2019 and i'm just doing the math but i think i was already a3ing at the time #and to me it was just screw it i deserve plushies it's good to have a pal to hug. And now look at me. #Basically my point is the specific card of Hisoka wearing a massive scarf an eyemask and his Pen Pen plushy is where i'm at psychologically #ANYWAY. #Rambling over i just love Hisoka very much
