#naib: since when do i like you you show up in my house at random intervals and you steal my poptarts

[nortnaibz]

also ok i love the hc that all the different skins have different personalities bc it allows for the complete role reversal of typical nortnaib where naib is a dumb oblivious idiot who thinks norton is cocky and an asshole and norton who is sad and doesn't realize naib is the perfect balance 2 him so he picks fights with him all the time like. any norton skin and chesh and that would be completely flipped

#ghost boy talks #ALSO magic item keeper and chesh being super fucking good at blackjack and everyone else is like what is wrong w you people. #they play against each other and are always either the first out or the last left because they're idiots and target each other #magic item keeper specifically bc he has the cards on his hat and he gives me gamblet vibes #and chesh because he Loves a good game and is very smart despite being generally a shithead #and of course like the other universe skins...hound/wanderer is the best ship in the entire game no one can convince me otherwise. #norton who finds a dying bounty hunter in the middle of a fight and goes here let me save you #and then is like ok i didn't Mean to fall for the pureblood but he's so fucking pretty? #(i remember smth about naib being pureblood in that universe but it might have been non-canon i'm not sure) #and the other vamps r like why do you get him. #nort: because he likes me! #naib: since when do i like you you show up in my house at random intervals and you steal my poptarts #nort: well now everyone knows the infamous bounty hunter eats poptarts. so who's the real winner #why poptarts. i have no idea it's canon now #nort's like look i can't live off blood all the time you'd die if i did that and naib is like i see no downside. #and nort gets all pouty until naib is like ................................you are such a baby. i love you. stop stealing my pop tarts #demi is the only other vampire naib talks to bc shes chill and vegan and she just thinks they're funny #demi: nort you know i can get you drinks so you don't have to bleed your pup dry right #naib: if you ever call me that again i'll set this place on fire #demi: no you wouldn't dear. #naib: bet #nort: well you see demi my pup here my pup? my hound the absolute love of my life- #naib: *glaring at him in the most violent manner possible* #nort: -is just irresistible. and that vegan shit you make is gross. no offense #demi: well i think your pup would taste gross— #nort: HOW DARE YOU. #naib: iiiiiiii am leaving. #i haven't written for hound/wanderer now i have to oh no. 4 hrs until g2 and i'm not asleep yet. #but i love that skin line so much it allows for so much fuckery #oh hound barely has any lore i guess that pureblood thing was hc. i still like it

so uh naib new skin man in red hcs?

I love his skin so much (I love all of Naib's skins because he's my comfort character, but that quickly went to the top with Dax falling second and inference falling third lol)

Man In Red HC's:

Ruthless man he is and a very ruthless ruler. A lot of people fear him and they have every right to

He used to be loving and innocent himself, but something during the plague made him snap. Causing everyone he held close to him to run, only making him worse

Other than Violetta, he hasn't been close to anyone since. If anything, he wants to rule the throne on his own. No one to talk him out of things or to try something behind his back

The last person who tried to stop him was Edgar. Poor man was literally crucified when he tried to stop Naib from overtaking the throne

He's also pretty wicked when it comes to dealing with other kingdoms. Surprisingly, he never plans on invading one. But if a ruler keeps pushing it, he just might

After other rulers see how he runs and deal with things, they quickly back off and leave him alone. He is clearly someone not to be messed with, and they are not about to test his abilities in war and find out how cruel he can truly be

You have to be someone he holds very, VERY, dear to his heart in order to even be friend

One of his citizens managed to squeeze their way into his heart. Even become his s/o

They were trying to carry some stuff home, unfortunately, someone had stolen their horse, leaving them to carry what they could and possibly come back the next day and get it

They bumped into Naib by accident, they apologized, but when they saw his face they began to apologize even more out of panic

Naib just stares at them deadpanned and wondering why they're trying to carry all this stuff on their own. So he asks them as he picked up one of the items to look at it

They explain their situation. For once, deep down he wanted to help someone. And he did help them

S/o was quite nervous though. Naib asked them about their home life and what they do. Just small talk

They tell him that they're managing okay-ish. The plague that swept through plummeted their family business unfortunately

After helping them, he went back to the palace and kept thinking about them

He started leaving the palace a lot more frequently. Something about s/o just makes him feel like a person again and he missed that feeling so much

S/o starts slowly becoming comfortable with him that one day, they invite him into their little home

It only has one bedroom, a tiny kitchen, etc. But it's cozy and easy to keep up with

Naib finds the little home cute

He tries to invite them to the palace, but they get nervous about it because other people live in it. The last thing they want to do is get in the way of something by accident

He isn't bothered by this and kind of prefers to visit them anyway

After knowing them for quite some time. He shows up in their house with a rose (don't worry s/o gave him a house key if he ever wanted to visit)

S/o comes home and sees him. He goes on about how they knew each other for a while and eventually asks if they want to try and have a relationship together

The only reason he didn't try marrying them right away like people normally during these times is that he needs to make sure if this is something they and himself truly want. He's still scared that they will up and leave

But of course, s/o didn't leave if anything they just became more affectionate towards him. A lot of people envy them because they get to see and be around the sweet and loving man while the rest have to live under his rule

Naib is VERY protective though. He knows not very many people like him and would do anything to make him fall to his knees. So he asked his s/o if they come live with him. They don't have to sell their home or anything, he just wants to be there for them immediately if anything happens

He loves rubbing their back and whispering sweet nothings into their ear

At random times of the day, he'll steal a couple of kisses

He's a tease. Likes to pretend he's going to give them a loving and sweet kiss. Only to say: "my, you seem to want a kiss?" Leaving them to look redder than his clothes

He just laughs and gives them the kiss they wanted

Naib does plan on making them his king/queen. He just knows people who are popular or something (idk) will have issues with it because s/o isn't a royal or anyone considered important

He can shut them up quick, but it's the one's who scheme he's worried about

Violetta assures him that if she catches anyone being suspicious, they won't be around for much longer

But everything goes smoothly because again. Naib is some you don't want to mess with and if you hurt his s/o consequences are going to be so much worse

If his s/o is okay with it, he would like to have an heir (he would still love the child and would never treat them like some sort of project). If not, he's completely fine with that

If they prefer to stay out of the public eye, he respects that. He knows it's a bit stressful

S/o might become the favorite in the kingdom due to their kindness because they're what keeps Naib from going overboard with things

Walks everywhere with his arms linked with s/o

He wants to spoil them, but if they decline. He'll just settle for giving them beautiful flowers

When he comes to bed late. He likes to push his s/o's hair out of their face or rub his thumb against their cheek. He never thought he would meet someone that he loves so much

He has definitely kissed his s/o around the face until they woke up every morning

S/o usually doesn't mind as long as it isn't 7:30 or earlier lmao

Dancing together alone is his favorite thing. He would make sure that they feel extra special because he tries to make them feel special every day

While he is a cruel ruler, a part of him is still a loving, caring person when it comes to his s/o. No one else can have that side of him but them
