We all know how touch starved Knives is but what if his s/o was also touch starved to the point of clinging on to him like a kola or a backpack. Just thought it may be funny that he's just acts like it's just the norm walking around with his s/o hanging off him.

Touch-starved Knives? I'm already there. I'm in the theater, Anon. I've got my popcorn and my large drink and I'm ready.

This idea was so cute to me I decided to write you some little imagines and a bite-sized ficlet, too! Hope you enjoy!

Millions Knives x Reader: Touchy

Content Warnings: None again, just tooth-rotting fluff. Doesn't have any specific Knives incarnation in mind, since they're all ever-so untouched and in need of touching.

First off, don't expect him to outright admit anything, ever. Knives is very much a "if I don't think about it, it'll go away" kind of guy. So there's no way he'll ever come up to you and be like hey, guess who didn't get enough skin-to-skin contact as a growing youth, this guyyyy. But do expect him to start getting clingy once he realizes he can.

It's like getting your first taste of your new favorite food. Now that you've had it, you can't get enough. Suddenly he's pressing his hand up to yours while standing next to you (not handholding, he tried this once and got overwhelmed and had to go bite something for a while). Or he's hovering behind you, resting his head on yours. Or he's laying next to you, tracing patterns across your arm/shoulder/back/whatever's available and allowed to be touched.

It's one thing if you're fine with touch. But if you're touch-starved like him, on the other hand? You're trying to sap that same affection from him. Since he's quick to overwhelm (as previously stated) it can be hard at times, but he slowly, surely, gets used to the sensations of pressure and touch that aren't violent or painful, just kind and pleasurable.

So, the touch becomes more constant, more level, more in-tune with each other. It starts feeling very natural. And that natural-ness feels great.

Hugs. So many hugs. That feeling of pressure between the two of you is relaxing and reassuring. (Also you totally get pressed into those "airbags" of his if you know what I mean.) He's so precise with his movements that he can hold you at the exact tightness that makes you feel the best. Who needs a weighted blanket when you have the Compression Boyfriend?

Koala backpacking? Absolutely. 100%. Crawl all over this man. Crawl up him like a vine. He's so used to it by now, he just lets it happen, even in the middle of work. Sometimes he'll pretend you're not there, just for the giggles. Completely straight-faced, but makes you laugh like mad.

If this is Stampede Knives we're specifically talking about (though I personally think the other Knives do this too) then you get to sit next to him, or even on his lap, while he's at the piano. No naughty business--just being close to each other while he plays the keys. Or maybe he'll ghost his hands over yours and show you how to play/follow your playing, if you already know how.

Alright, a little ficlet below the cut just for you.

"...My liege."

"What?"

Legato frowned at the sight before him. There was important business to be done, and here Master Knives was, fooling around. Letting you, the human he'd bonded with, crawl all over him like an insect.

"If nothing's amiss, Legato, then let's get to work." Knives huffed and picked up the paperwork from the table.

You shifted around slightly on his back, head resting on his shoulder, watching as he shuffled through the papers. This was one of your little games with him--you'd hang out on his back, literally, and he'd pretend you weren't there. He didn't care about the game, really, but it made you laugh. And if it made you laugh (one of his favorite sounds, if he had any), it was worth it.

"...Master Knives."

"Spit it out."

"Get that human off your back."

Knives growled. "That human has a name, you know. Besides, there's no human on my back."

You stifled a laugh as you looked at Legato, mouth twisting downwards in a frown.

"Yes, there is." Legato pointed. "They're right there!"

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Knives shook his head, then turned around to procure some more files from a shelf. As he turned, you looked back to Legato and stuck your tongue out at him.

"You arrogant little--"

"Legato," Knives grunted. "If you mean to insult me, I'll gladly slice you open."

Legato fumed, then finally spoke again. "Not at all, my liege."

"Good." Knives leaned over to rub his head against yours for just a moment, then returned towards Legato. "Then, let's get to work."

End Notes: I have a soft spot for Knives. And a soft spot for Knives learning to love, well, love. This is also dedicated to my friend who lets me shout about Knives at them. You're the best, K!

One thing that I’ve decided I want to do with my SciFi stories is reaally REALLY incorporate the aspect of general relativity and just how hard it would be to have a cohesive galactic government. I want to focus on the isolated aspect of space where yeah, you’ve found a really cool exoplanet and its able to support human life, and all that would need to exist there in order to support human life, but creating a viable colony is going to take generations, maybe even a few centuries. Ntm ftl communications is also so so delayed too, so you end up having an isolated community that is ignorant to the history playing out in other sectors of the galaxy.

On top of this, the requirements that a multi-planetary interstellar faring government would need help in order to be able to control so many planets would be a ridiculous amount, and no amount of tightening restrictions to try and maintain control of planets would be able to overcome the time dilation that occurs depending on where you are even in terms of the arm of a galaxy. So by the time that a ‘centralized’ government would hear about a conflict breaking out in a planet on the other side of the galaxy, the time it would take to gather resources, manpower, and so on would make it so that by the time they get there to deal with the conflict, the conflict would have already passed and there might even be an entirely new society that doesn’t recognize the main government as their hierarch, or think that a fucking alien invasion is occurring because they lost their history to the conflict.

What i would see happening is like, almost what would be different branches of human evolution and societies that would form their own territories, and entire histories being lost, humanity even potentially forgetting where they originated from because of just the scale of a single galaxy and the way that time stretches and compresses depending on where you are.

It would be almost like when humanity first evolved to become, well, humans, and began to spread across the globe. Except galactic-scale speaking. It would take a TOOOON of time before humanity has completely spread across the entire galaxy and created a centralized state thats akin to globalization except…i guess u would call it galactification. And i wanna focus specifically on that in-between period of it all

#my stuff #my scifi story #original SciFi story concepts #if u wanna add onto this with ur own thoughts PLEASE feel free to do so i would love to hear them

I just adore your blog! Something about it and your imagines are just so sweet and homey 🥺 Could I please request some headcanons for Vash, Woowoo and Knives with a reader who loves to draw and is really passionate about it? I mostly have general sketching/figure studies in mind but you can do whatever is easiest for you! I hope that you have a good day and your blog continues to prosper <3

Thank you for the compliment 🥺!!! I'm so glad it feels homey. I try to make things like a home here... after all I LIVE HERE... thank you I hope to keep this blog going for a while after trying to revive it like twice before!

I think this request is so cute, I'm an artist too (have been for like, over a decade ^_^) so I've got lots of ideas in that aspect. I tried to keep to general sketching/traditional stylings of art but I think a lot of these can be applied to other art areas too!!

Vash, Wolfwood, and Knives x Reader: Artistry

Content Warnings: None! Reader doesn't have a specified gender, and some parts of the imagines are a little romance-oriented but this could also be interpreted as a strong friendship. Also this is my first mutli x reader so I hope the formatting's alright. No version was in mind for any of these so take them as you will!

Vash

Oh, he is definitely excited about this.

Vash is a bit of an artist, himself. He can do those super-complex technical drawings, and he really likes making art of machinery and stuff like that. There's a lot of diagrams of his arm lost in a notebook somewhere.

He loves to see your style and interpretation of the things around you. Seeing the world through your eyes, even for just a moment, is like heaven to him.

If you ever give him some of your art as a gift, he keeps it hung up on a wall or wherever he can stay for a while. (If he's in a more permanent place, his walls are covered in your art. He just loves it that much.)

The ones that are most special to him, he likes to keep in his pockets, so he can look at them whenever he needs a morale boost. Like, this is what he's fighting for: a world full of love and peace, a world that's able to keep creating beautiful art like this for years to come.

One day, the two of you get to draw each other as a sort of practice. Seeing each other through the others' eyes... again, it feels like a dream. Vash draws all the parts of you that you weren't always confident about with such care that you feel truly loved by him in that moment.

Wolfwood

"Oh, yer an artist? ... Can ya draw me?"

Yes he will absolutely pull that stunt at least once or twice, if only to get a hilarious dirty glare out of you. If you do actually take him up on this, he might let out a nervous "Haha... I mean, ya didn't have ta' do it, but..." He'll be really charmed.

Though his hands are strong and nimble from doing all those flippant tricks with the Punisher, he's entranced with the way you're able to use yours to create, to draw.

He's always sneaking you extra supplies, like pens, pencils, and paper, whenever you least expect it. You never have to ask for any of those things anymore, or even shop for them--they just happen upon your desk whenever you think you're running low.

One day, he takes a piece of your paper and a pen and doesn't let you see what he's doing until he's all done. He's a little dodgy about showing you, eventually he does. It's a crude scribble of the two of you, though you can tell he really put his all into it.

It's your most prized possession, and you give him a big hug for it.

Knives

Much like Vash, he's actually an artist himself--but doesn't really call himself one, rather saying that he's... capable of copying something he's seen part-for-part. So, his drawings are more like pictures or prints. They're exact. Eerily so.

The art that you make gets a half-hearted snort of approval from Knives, which is basically one of the highest praises he can offer in his own sort of language.

Though normally he'd want to give some sort of unwarranted criticism for a drawing looking wonky or off, he saves you from it. He doesn't want to break your passion--but he's not going to admit that outright.

If you do ask for criticism, though, he's very thorough while keeping you on the road to improvement. If you're studying a specific style, he's reading up on it. If you're trying new materials, he's making sure you have all the tools necessary for it.

And speaking of materials, he's able to secure uncommon colors and rare tools for you to use for art. He's making sure that everything you create is of the highest quality.

One day, you drew a portrait of him and presented it to him as a gift. He gave out that little snort of approval and maybe even a a tiny "Thanks..." as he wandered off. He secretly keeps it close to look at it in his private time, tracing his fingers over the ink marks and recalling your movements.

Hi it's 🌻anon it's been awhile!

I've mostly been working a lot and just wanting to crawl in bed to just rest for the next thousand years or so.

Which made me think of a request: Vash and/or Knives s/o that just wants to rest in cuddle all day with them.

Hope you have a wonderful day 🌻

Hi Sunflower Anon 🌻 Always here to brighten my day. I totally feel you with wanting to rest for the next thousand years, working on several projects all at once will do that to you.

I think this request is really adorable and since I feel like it, I'm gonna do both. I think they'd approach this differently and it's fun to explore how!

Vash the Stampede and Millions Knives x Reader: Whole Day Off

Content Warnings: None, we're just enjoying a super cozy day in bed. For the most part.

Vash

I bet he wishes he could take the whole day off. A day with no fighting, no running, no bullets, nothing but gentleness and peace and quiet. This is never quite his reality, but now that you're in his life...

It'd be rude of him not to indulge you, at least once. Once you brought the idea up, perhaps half-asleep in the morning, he couldn't say no to your cute face.

He'll spread out a bit with you nestled into his arm, smiling at the gentle sunlight now spreading across the bed. It's nice to slow down when it's possible. And in these moments, there's nothing to worry about--just Vash quietly breathing next to you, sometimes the two of you adjusting to a new position, he spoons you, you spoon him, toppled over each other like wayward building blocks, whatever works.

Eventually he will get up, much to your reluctance, but he promises quietly that he'll come back. And he does--probably with something to eat and drink. Can't spend the whole day in bed without a snack!

Knives

This man is a workaholic. Does he even sleep? I'm not entirely convinced that he does. If you can, somehow, get him to sleep with you (literally, I mean) I think he'd be leaving soon after you fell asleep to keep doing work.

I don't think there's any way he'd accept "lying around in bed all day cuddling" as a valid excuse to avoid work. I think he'd call you silly for even suggesting it! But he wouldn't force you to get up and do anything if you didn't want to (he's not that mean... at least I like to think...).

But maybe there's room for... compromise? Is that a word in his vocabulary? Maybe he'll allow you just a few minutes of his company in bed in the morning. As an apology reward for being such a good little human. And a few minutes might turn into a few more. And maybe just a little longer. And maybe he'll wait until the top of the hour, just to be exact--and, whoops, looks like it's a minute past...

If he can't stay with you, truly, maybe he'll come to check on you every so often. If you've fallen back asleep, he'll probably graze the back of his hand against your cheek, admiring how cute you look--he means, just checking to see that you're still alive. And maybe he'll make sure you're still tucked into the blanket. And maybe he'll leave a little kiss on your forehead... Maybe he'll join you when he feels he can sneak away.

Feral for affection uncanny vash or knives.

🌻have a good day

Hi there Sunflower Anon! I'm going to call you that, especially if you come back again with another sunflower. Thanks for the ask!!

I've seen the uncanny Vash and Knives stuff blow up in popularity. I Was there. Though sometimes I feel it's disingenuous to call them uncanny--that's our human interpretation of their forms. Maybe something more along the lines of primal? Well, syntax aside, I think it's a super fun idea to lean more into the alien ideals of Plants. I have plenty of my own headcanons for how the two look and operate, but, let's not focus on that right now. Let's just get affectionate!

Vash and Knives x Reader: Affections (Uncanny ver.)

Content Warnings: General uncanny or possibly unnerving content ahead. Features like multiple eyes/limbs/etc. are discussed, and there may be an implicit body horror to it. No violence, though! Just cuteness aside from all that!

Vash

I think Vash is pretty hesitant at first to show you any sort of uncanny parts of himself. I mean, we already know how he feels about his scars--he really doesn't want to scare you off, especially once you two have become close.

But if you can slowly and gently coax him out of his shell, if you can convince him that yes, you'll love every part of him, no matter how ugly he may think those parts are, he'll eventually relent.

And at first, it's just a few features that pop out. It might be reflective, glowy eyes in the nighttime, or fingers that have grown out just a little too long for the average man, or even a few spiny scutes along his back.

Once he's comfortable, though? He lets it all hang out. Not like that--he just allows his true form to come through. And there's lots of limbs and even some sharp edges to deal with... But if you're patient, you'll find he's maybe even more affectionate like this!

Cuddles end up the best because now instead of two (sometimes one, if he has the prosthetic off) arms around you, it's six (more like five!) and you are ever-so-tightly squeezed against his body. He also has a very comfortable temperature, so you never have to worry about being too hot or too cold. It's just right!

Purring. Yes, I know it's cliché, I know that it's mentioned in every imagine, but come on. It's so cute. I don't think it's like animal purring, though, maybe more like an engine. Or perhaps more akin to a larger cat purring. Less cutesy, more... well, rumbly. Sometimes it makes his whole body vibrate.

With his extra appendages, he loves to tickle you. Prepare to be bombarded with tickles. He's able to dance across your skin so fast that you can barely catch him in time to try and swat him away.

Kisses! He tries to be so careful with kisses since his jaw can unhinge and all that. And lots of teeth get in the way. But if you don't mind that... Or perhaps, if you're into that... Well, you can definitely start experimenting. But he's still as gentle as possible.

Knives

Now this is someone who's not afraid to show you their true self. Knives is going to quickly reveal his primal form to you. If you can't learn to get comfortable with it, he's obviously not for you. (It begs the question as to why he keeps a more humanoid form too--maybe it's just easier to get around in human-sized spaces with?)

No matter your initial reaction, I think he's going to make some kind of comment. You get scared? Typical human. You like it? Disgusting. You act as utterly neutral as possible? Don't lie to yourself. There's seriously no winning with him.

But with whatever charm (or perhaps sheer persistence) you give, the two of you are a pair now. And if there's one word to describe how he acts with you? It's protective.

If you two are ever out and about, he's got a sharp, bright wing curled over and around you, shielding from peering eyes. On the outside, it's all points and blades (and knives?) but on the inside, only for you to see, there's some softer, more downy feathers. Just so you won't rust up the blades, whatever you say, Knives.

His conscious self isn't keen to showing affection, but his subconscious body sure is. Expect a few tingly vines trying to wrap around and hold your hand, or a tail-like appendage that rests on your waist/shoulders, or a wing tickling your cheek. He swears he isn't doing it intentionally.

Unlike his brother, he's not a super affectionate guy, as stated above, so don't expect much in the way of kisses. Unless the two of you are alone, and he's in a better-than-usual mood. Then his cravings might get the better of him, and he might just tackle on top of you to bite a chunk out of you--I mean, get a few sloppy kisses in.

Overall? In front of others, relatively distant. Behind closed doors? You're becoming his. Tight tendrils keep you close at night, teeth nibble at the nape of your neck, the sharp edges of leaves or feathers tease your skin but never come too close. He's too precise to actually ever hurt you.

End Notes: I think their "true" forms are something akin to an insectoid/angelic/plant-like mix, where it's sort of indescribable, archaic, tangled and messy. Maybe I ought to draw them and show you all...~

Also, there REALLY need to be more 1998 Knives gifs, or I'm about to pony up and just make a buttload of my own.

Okay, last note. Sorry this took me a while! I just moved back into college and my first week was busy! (^人^)

Unexpected Waltz

Fandom: Trigun Pairing: Millions Knives x Reader Other Characters: None Notes: So ummm... Hi!!! I’ve been quiet on this blog for a while because I’ve been hemming and hawing about whether I want to keep participating in this community with others (I haven’t had a whole lot of good experiences tbh) but... I decided to whip up a little Knives x Reader for old time’s sake. Please enjoy! Also, this song inspired the title and general feel. Word count: 921

Warnings: None, just some dancing and a semi-established relationship. And maybe very slightly out of character Knives but this is my house and I get to decide how Knives talks.

[Also crossposted to AO3!]

“I see no point to the task of dancing.”

Millions Knives, the Plant who was forever unconvinced that there was any substance to be taken from extraneous activities and pastimes of humans. And you, the human who loved him and desperately wanted him to do something nice with you.

You knew there’d be a rift between your worlds the moment you met him, regardless of whether that led to a relationship or not. Knives was just so convinced that he was different that he couldn’t fathom partaking in any sort of human activity.

Which, at first, you didn’t really mind–you wouldn’t push him, and he wouldn’t push you. Most of the time.But today, you really wanted to dance with him. Everything felt right, but he stayed stiff as a board on the other side of the room, arms crossed as crackly music came from the record player.

“Come on,” you huffed, mirroring his pout. “Just one little dance won’t kill you, you know.”

“Waste of energy,” Knives added. “Waste of time. All of it, a waste.”

“You said the same thing about kissing and hugging and cuddling at night.”

“And I’m still right,” he snided. “But it’s beneficial to you. That kind of contact releases oxycontin, a critical chemical for your wellbeing.”

“And you don’t feel even a little nice when we do it?”

Knives closed his eyes and refused to answer.

“Well. Dancing feels good, for one. It’s nice to move your body in a rhythmic fashion.” You spun around a little. “Humans have developed a multitude of dancing styles, both for music and without music. Some dances are sacred and used to tell stories, while others are just for fun.”

“...So it’s important.” He was looking away, but had a slight quirk to his lip that could imply a smile–the I’m-not-interested-but-since-it’s-with-you-and-I-like-you smile.

“To me, at least.” You held out a hand. “Will you at least try it? Just once?”

Something he’d heard a lot. When you urged him to take a bite of your cooking, or to draw on some scrap paper, or read a book that wasn’t another tome full of boring nonsense. And every time, he’d groan and lament about how you were expecting too much out of his greatness, how he shouldn’t bother with these things–but he’d still do them, so who was the real winner?

Both of you, actually. He just refused to admit that he’d both lost and won.

After a moment of hesitation, he approached, putting his hand in yours. Ever so gently.

That was the one far cry of the Knives that stayed in your house and laid in your bed from the one that used to be in the elements of the desert–he was gentle in most everything he did, despite his cruelty before, despite the harshness in his words. Maybe he knew that you were human and mortal, and you could only handle a mere fraction of his power before snapping. Maybe he really didn’t want you to break, because he finally found someone who could hear him.

Maybe he didn’t want to be alone.

You placed his hand on your shoulder, reaching the matching one on your side to his hip (his shoulder was far too high to hold comfortably) and interlacing fingers on the other side.

“I’ll lead us, okay?” You were alright with dancing–not an expert, but not completely clueless, either. A simple step would be fine.

“...Alright.” Knives usually hated relinquishing control, but he had extremely barebones dancing skills, if any at all, and didn’t want to step on your toes. Literally or figuratively.

Slowly, you moved your feet to the beat of the music, letting Knives follow in your footsteps. He was able to pick up the rhythm easily, though he was primarily just copying what you were doing. You took him around the room, spinning gently, watching his unmoving expression as he stared at you. There was a slight gleam in his eye–the gleam of I-like-you-but-I’m-trying-not-to-show-it.

As the music continued, you pulled away from him slightly, twirling yourself around his arm. He seemed a bit confused, but your smile was enough for him to allow this to happen. There was a certain warmth in his chest that came from his hand on your shoulder, your hand on his waist, and the other hands intertwined to the side. It felt nice, as much as he loathed to admit it. Knives almost wanted the music to last forever, but it was coming to an end.

“I’m gonna dip you!” You said, bracing your hand behind his waist.

Knives sort of knew this move. He wanted to make some kind of remark, one along the lines of you won’t be able to hold me up, but his body reacted before he made up his mind. He fell backwards, letting you keep him close with one arm. You still strained against his weight–how can one man be so dense, you wondered–but were able to hold the move for a few seconds until the needle bumped itself off the record, music stopping.

Knives stood up, partially taking you with him as you slid off of him.

“Well? What did you think?” You asked, grinning up at him.

Knives huffed out of his nose, then replied. “It… Wasn’t that bad. But don’t expect me to do it again.”

The tiniest smile formed on his face as he turned away. I want to do it again so badly! Please dance with me again!

You knew him too well by now.

Hi call me blueberry anon or just blue!

I was hopin to ask with Vash and Knives with an Angel!reader g/n.

Like you know when Vash and Knives show their true selves and reader dont give a shit because they literally have giant ass wings and multiple eyes yknow like one of those biblical accurate angel but more human.

If its too specific just ignore this JDJKDKDKDK (ps when i said show their true selves i immediately thought of those wolf alpha vids on tiktok)

Hello Blueberry Anon~ I'm sorry that this took longer than usual to get to, I promise I wasn't ignoring or forgetting this request! College woes... (´Д｀)

I think this is a super cute idea and I'm always a sucker for a chaotic angel or devil or any sort of creature really. (Probably why I enjoy writing about Vash and Knives being little beasts so much LOL)

Vash and Knives x Angel!Reader: Heaven

Content warnings: None, but the descriptions of multiple eyes/wings might be offputting to some. Otherwise just fluff!

Vash

I take Vash as someone who's really accepting of everyone else's differences--even to the point where he'll feel a sort of disdain towards his own differences because of it.

But when he learns about your otherworldly nature? He's immediately curious. He really can't help himself.

He wants to ask a lot of questions. How do you hide your wings? Are humans afraid of you? Do you have any sorts of powers? Does this mean you're immortal--wait, are you here on a mission?!

Whether you indulge him or not in answers is up to you. He won't pry (but he might whine a little if you tell him it's a secret).

Now that he knows you're different, he wants to embrace it as much as possible. He's always trying to compliment how soft your wings are, how radiant and sparkling your eyes are, etc.

I think this especially goes for the '98 iteration of Vash--the "did it hurt when you fell from Heaven" pickup line. Feel free to respond with "yeah, actually, a lot" to get him sputtering and scrambling to apologize.

Knives

When you explain it to him, he's very quiet at first, running all possible responses through his head. What he doesn't say (but is thinking) is that he's thankful you're not human (because admitting he loves a human is an utterly impossible feat!).

He also hopes, deep down, that since you're inhuman, you might better understand his intentions for a world without humans. (Of course, if you're the kind of angel who's sent to help humans, this goes against your direct orders... cue troubles!)

He has a deep respect for your otherworldly self, being not of the planet himself, so he takes a lot of time to study and understand you to the fullest.

He's especially intrigued if you have repeating features--multiple eyes, pairs of wings, floating motes of flame, spinning golden rings, that kind of stuff. He really enjoys symmetry and repetition. (Vash does, too, but he'll appreciate from afar.)

He encourages you to take your "natural" form more often, rather than sculpting yourself into a more humanoid form. If this more "natural" form is imperceptible/cosmically incomprehensible to him, he won't mind. (Okay, he might be a little sad if he can't see you in all your blazing glory, but he won't make it obvious.)

I think there's definitely a case here for a "fallen angel" type deal--you've fallen from the sins of humanity, and now you've joined up with Knives in order to restore what should have been. Or maybe you find more worth in each other...

End notes: I finished this up on mobile so the formatting might be off. I promise I'll fix it tomorrow!

🚶‍♂️🤥and 💕 for vash?

Oh hell yes I will do anything for Vash. (also hi Val :) )

🚶‍♂️ a habit-themed headcanon: I think Vash is the kind of guy to have all sorts of habits that others would deem strange. Half of it is related to being a Plant, and the other half is related to being alive for well over a century. I think if there's earlier versions of certain inventions, he still uses the early versions (this is a man who pours over his coffee because it's the only way he knows). I also think he's a nighttime wanderer, so sometimes you might wake up and see him staring with big, glassy, reflective eyes.

🤥 a lie-themed headcanon: I don't think Vash is all that good at lying outright. I think he's great at avoiding the truth, but straight-up lying? He fumbles over every word, usually ending up spurting out that he's lying by the end of his spiel. He has way too many tells (avoiding looking you in the eye, searching for an escape, this weird chittery noise in his throat, etc.) for him to be effective. He'd rather tell the painful truth than get wrapped up in a difficult lie.

💕 a loved-themed headcanon: He finds it extremely hard to be loved. He can give love just fine (for the most part) but allowing himself to feel loved makes him feel guilty, endlessly. Like he's not allowed to want it, doesn't deserve it for all the things he's done. Dash the idea of getting affection from others, it's not for you. I think it'd take him a while to finally open up and reveal himself bit by bit, and ever so gently would you have to reach in and give affection to the scared creature inside of him, until he could finally relent and let his walls down for once.

Thinking about knives with reader that keeps bringing stray cats and dogs in.

Like he just walks into reader's room one day and they have 3 cats and 4 dogs sitting around the room

Knives with a disappointed sign"reader..."

"It was cold outside and was about to rain!"

Oh this is such a cute idea... I think he'd relent only because it was you who brought them in, and you give him the most sad, pathetic look if he tries to get them out.

KNIVES: I don't want any filthy mutts wandering around our home. YOU: (sniffle) KNIVES: Fine, fine, fine, just--don't cry.

He'd be terrible at naming them, by the way. One dog named Spot (you came up with this one) and another named Trichloromethane (guess who came up with that one?).

And I think by the end he'd be like one of those dads who relents having a pet in the house, but the next time you see them they're cuddled up together. Knives is standing up with his eyes closed (as per usual) and one of the cats has nestled into his hair, unmoving, purring the day away.

Hii! Can you do 🧼 and 🌏 for the thematic hcs with Vash or Wolfwood please?

How about BOTH? Because you're all special to me 😉

Vash

🧼 a hygiene-themed headcanon: How weird is it to say, sandbath? Do you all know what a sandbath is? It's more common in birds, but we think it's to help mitigate parasites and to clean off, much like a bath in water or wallowing in mud (like pigs do). With his angelic wings, a lot of people like to draw bird elements onto him, so I think a sandbath is the next logical step. I mean, come on, Gunsmoke is positively covered in the stuff. He can take a bath anywhere, anytime. Wouldn't it be great if you could do that? (He's very hygienic, even though a sandbath would make you believe he was gritty or dirty.)

🌍 a travel-themed headcanon: I mean, we already know he travels a lot. That's kind of his thing. But I think one thing that isn't explored as much is how far he's willing to go in a day. Vash is the kind of guy to say something's a short walk away, and then a few hours and five miles away later, he just says "we're close!". (He's nice enough to carry you if you get tired... He's used to carrying a huge load of gear, so carrying a person isn't much different.)

Wolfwood

🧼 a hygiene-themed headcanon: I think Wolfwood is the kind of guy who likes to keep clean. Like, yeah, he definitely gets gross during battles--but I think he tries to get into some fresh clothes and scrub the dirt and blood off his skin ASAP, because it was never something that really suited him. He wouldn't take that long to get cleaned up, either. He's become a multitask master, he's become so efficient that he's in and out in five minutes or less.

🌍 a travel-themed headcanon: Also a big walker, but I think Wolfwood enjoys the idea of traveling to a new place he's never been before to take in a different culture or other experiences. He's been a lot of places and seen a lot of different things, noted about 20 different fringe religions, discovered 12 different art styles that involve glass, and ate at least 3 things that he couldn't identify (and neither could the residents). I like to think there's a little trinket compartment in his Punisher.

might I request a knives x reader where he sarcastically talks to them about their interests at first but he eventually gets really curious/into the conversation

🦤 anon

Hello Dodo Anon~ I love Dodo birds, prehistoric animals (and recently extinct animals!) are very interesting to me!

I think this is a cute idea, thanks for being patient, let's get right into it!

Millions Knives x Reader: Curiosity

Content Warnings: Knives is vaguely a jerk at first, but he softens up. Otherwise, just cuteness!

Regardless of what your interest is, I think Knives would definitely be the type to scoff at it, simply because it's such a human thing to have an interest.

If, by some chance, you have an interest in something that Knives already likes (like, say, piano) he might be a little less harsh... or he might think you're doing it all wrong.

Yeah, he's not really the nicest sort of guy is he?

But as he slowly (very slowly) warms up to you, he starts to see your interests in a more... gentle light. If gentle is even in his vocabulary.

Rather than scoffing at it, he might just simply ignore it. It'd probably take him a longer time to actually come to like whatever you like, if he possibly can. Along the way, maybe he'll start associating you with that hobby...

You might even catch him a few times looking over your shoulder to watch you research/practice your hobby. But he'll deny it, saying he was just checking on you... Yeah, right, nobody needs to check for that long!

Eventually, you might find a little gift or two in your room related to your hobby. He'll vehemently deny that he got it for you, saying he just found it lying around and figured you could use it, because humans love these little things, blah blah blah... We know the truth, though, he totally got it because he thought of you and couldn't resist seeing your smile.

Hey! My birthday was on Monday, we’re birthday week buddies! Happy belated birthday, I hope you had a great day!

For the occasion, could I request a drabble of Vash celebrating the reader’s birthday?

Anon! Happy (very late) birthday, and thanks for the belated birthday wishes. They're greatly appreciated ＼(^^)／ I even went out and got myself a beer, and learned that beer tastes pretty bad. That's life!

I can definitely do something with Vash celebrating the Reader's birthday. Let's go!

Vash the Stampede x Reader: Birthday Bash

Content Warnings: None! Just fluffy goodness.

To me, Vash is the kind of guy who absolutely tries to go all out on a birthday. Even when he's on the lam from basically everyone in town, he'll still carve out time to toss confetti, hang up streamers, blow balloons, whatever will make your special day... special.

I think part of that comes from Vash being older than everyone else, and just generally having a longer lifespan--he knows how fragile human life is, so celebrating another year alive is important.

If you try not to make a big deal out of your birthday, he'll pout until you relent and let him get you a gift and bake you a treat. (Or buy you a treat. He's only so good at cooking.)

If he can't get you something with money (whether he doesn't have it at the moment or it just doesn't feel right) he'll conjure up whatever he can to make you a gift, or service you however you want as a gift.

Regardless, he's really conscious of the things you enjoy--so you can expect a good gift from him, bought or not.

When it comes to cake time, Vash will say that he couldn't find any candles, and he'll give you as many kisses for however many years you've been around--cue annoying and endearing kissy noises as he smooches you around your face, counting them off, reducing you to a giggling mess.

Once the day has ended and you've cleaned yourself up, you might see a grand sight on your bed--Vash posed up in an attractive fashion, saying he'll do whatever you want tonight, since it's your birthday.

It's up to you how you interpret that. It could mean the fun goes on all through the night, in any way of your choosing...

Maybe he's the best gift of all, in the end.

"uncanny" knives and vash revealing that part of themselves only for their s/o to go "FUCK YEAH!!!" and be even more amazed by them instead of freaked out.

Yep... I'm the kind of guy who really happens to like the strange, the uncanny, the weird... I love looking at bugs and weird plants and things with way too many eyes or limbs or whatever.

I'd be all over them in a hot instant. Especially from Vash I don't want to hear any my true form is ugly! No, your true form is sexy. It's different. I like that. Maybe I'm tired of dudes that look like models tripping at my feet. Maybe I want a guy with 10 eyes and segmented eyes and a thorax.

I think Vash would be totally aghast and shocked at the idea that his true form could be pretty or desirable to his partner, but I think Knives, again, would be like wow what a gross human (but deep down inside he's like yes yes yes yes yes okay rub my scales now!).

*drags myself into your askbox dehydrated* knives with a reader who's clingy and likes being babied...plz...🤲

What a perfect thing to ask me to do right now, honestly, because I feel like I need to be babied currently lol. I think Knives is my most requested guy so far… Who knew there were so many fellow Knives fans out there? Well, let's get to it. (And go drink some water!)

Millions Knives x Reader: Clingy

Content Warnings: None here! Just Knives being a bittersweet lover. More emphasis on the bitter.

I'd say a good jumping point for this post is my original Touchy imagine, which also provides plenty of reader and Knives being clingy as hell content.

In terms of being babied, though? Knives isn't necessarily open to this at first. Or he'll go the extra literal route and put you in the time-out corner. You want to be babied? I'll show you "babied".

If you're able to weasel some pampering out of him, I think he'll slowly start to understand what you want, and he'll act accordingly.

As with the imagine mentioned above, there's physical contact that starts to bloom. More head-pats and hair ruffling, hands on the shoulders, things like that. Keep going, and you'll get some verbal praise--some good job, you're doing well, things of that nature.

Slowly, you'll become the most pampered of his inner circle. You're the one who gets special treatment. Allowed to act out a little more, and instead of snapping, snarling teeth, you'll get a gentle tell-off--yeah, there's gonna be jealousy among the ranks since you're treated (comparatively) sweetly.

He might finally come around to "babying" you as you'd asked, but he's doing it all with a straight face. Wrapping you up tight in a blanket with a little kiss on the forehead as if it's Perfectly Normal Procedure.

Overall, I think he just needs a little pushing if you want him to do something specific for you. He's only... so flexible, though, so be good to him back.

...Don't try to baby him back, though, it might not end all that well.

End Notes: I hope the formatting looks OK, I finished this one on mobile! If it doesn't I'll fix it later on desktop.
