𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫: 𝐏𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐱𝐮𝐬 𝐎𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐬

A mountainous Spartan that just loves being by your side. Can never truly get rid of him.

𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜/𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜:

Straight off the bat, his presence is frightening to be around. His shadow engulfs other shadows, like he eats them. So it’s quite realistic when you run/shuffle away when you spot him. When he’s sees you? It’s a straight shot for him. Someone in his way? They almost get ran over by him or get shoved to the side. They are not as important as you, minima angelum(tiny/little angel.)

While he stands by your side. He’ll death glare at anybody that comes to close for his liking and it could be someone in a damn tower. He’s going to glare up at them with the heat of a thousand suns. How dare one be in the area with a deity such as you? How dare one approach what is his?

He does try to speak to you in his language. Trying to get to know you better with words rather than slow, processing actions, but it seems like you were always adamant with speaking to him. Always speaking to him in a different language and he can’t tell if you are teasing him with it or not.

Whenever he reunites with you again? He pulls you in for a breathtaking kiss. It has you filling all woozy and buzzed, you forget where you are sometimes. It makes you dependent on his strength to hold you up next to him and the warrior does it. Every. Single. Time. It drives you crazy, but it earns him a very needy deity to return to or a very challenging one.

The challenge consists of stealing his cloak away from him and avoid him as much as you can. Something like capture the flag, but just capture the cloak instead. Playing with him like he was bull and you were the Matador. It usually ends with him pinning you down on a surface with his cloak wrapped snuggly around you, laughing up at him at the small, childish game you challenge him with.

Speaking of the cloak, he’ll give it to you and only you like a gentleman. Wrapping it around your shoulders comfortably. Watching as you nuzzle into it on inhale his scent. He won’t admit it that he loves your scent. Loves when you give it back and it smells just like you.

𝐒𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥/𝐒𝐦𝐮𝐭:

When I said this man loves your scent? He loves your scent. He’ll have his nose in your neck anytime he could get. Whether if you are sleeping, training or simply just standing there. He’s nuzzling his nose in your neck and core. If he has to smeared his face with your juices to get your scent on him? So be it, he’s eating breakfast, lunch and dinner today.

When you two fight either by training or disagreeing with one another it riles him up. He knows he should settle this matter in a more… civilized manner, but you just look so beautifully angry at him. He can’t help, but pin you to the nearest surface and shove his c*ck through your folds raw.

Walls, he loves pressing you up against walls. It keeps you from running away from him. It also keeps you trapped, still where he wants you to be. It gives him almost more movement, but for you? You stuck on his c*ck until he’s finished with you.

Oh, tie him up and ride him, I dare you. He’ll be so quick to break from his bonds and have you on your back with your knees up to your shoulders as you cry out to him while he growls and snarls in you ear. Pissed that he fell for your seduction to tease him out of all the things? Oh he’ll make sure you can’t walk for the next moon.

Did I tell you this warrior loves to breed? Well I did now. He wants nothing more than to pass on his attributes and your divinity through both of your lineage, but no matter how long he stays inside of you. How many’s days he overstimulates you. You never seem to get pregnant like he wants :(

[superbat-love]

When Superman gave him the kryptonite, Bruce felt touched that Kal-El would trust him, a human, that much. He knew that Superman was wary of humans when he first crash-landed on Earth a year ago, receiving a less than warm welcome from the military. If it hadn't been for the Justice League's intervention, Superman would have been locked up under Amanda Waller's watch.

It took months of fighting side by side on the battlefield before Superman accepted Batman's invitation to join the Justice League. As a show of mutual trust, Bruce provided Superman with plans to neutralize him in case he went rogue, and Superman entrusted any kryptonite he found to Batman for safekeeping.

They worked well together, and Superman had Batman's back in every fight against supervillains. While they had their ups and downs like any relationship, their conflicts never lasted long. That's why Bruce was puzzled when Superman started acting coldly towards him all of a sudden.

Bruce may not be the most emotionally aware being, but he could tell when someone was deliberately avoiding him. The rest of the Justice League noticed the tension and tried to mediate the situation. It was then that Superman suddenly accused him of cheating.

“You slept with that redheaded woman!” he yelled. Bruce tried hard to recall which woman Superman was talking about. Had he accidentally slept with Superman's lover? Then Superman continued, “I was patient, waiting for you to be ready to consummate our marriage, but you broke our sacred marriage contract! Clearly, you don't love me anymore!”

Bruce felt like he had entered the twilight zone. His mind spiraled as he frantically tried to remember when he had gotten married to the Kryptonian. It turns out that Superman fighting off the supervillains trying to get to him was part of a courtship ritual on Krypton. When Batman had invited Superman into the Justice League, Superman had taken it as a marriage proposal to join his inner circle, and they had exchanged weapons to seal the deal. It seems that Kryptonians had long, and pretty bloody, courtship rituals revolving around proving their strength to their partner and exchanging rare objects. Verbal declarations were unnecessary.

Bruce had been married to Superman for months, and he didn't even know it.

Halo self-insert thought...kinda

Can you imagine John's reaction to finding out his partner became a Spartan-IV when he came back? When he sees them again, they're different yet the same. There is a hardness to them he hasn’t seen before, but when they look at him, they just soften to the person he remembers.

And later, when they're alone, he traces all their new scars and old wounds from battles he knows nothing about. The wound of Cortana being gone is still fresh but now he blames himself for his partner’s suffering too. In his mind, he’s let down two people close to him, regardless of what you tell him. John doesn’t even know how to ask why you did this or how this happened, he just feels so much guilt, like he's to blame for this happening, that he couldn't keep his promise to protect you.

He will do his damn best to reroute orders to have you on Blue team, only to find out you’ve met them and they've been watching your back this whole time and you theirs. Fred just gives you a nod and greeting, saying it's good to see you again and he's glad you're doing well [aka glad you're not dead], Kelly bumps her shoulder against yours affectionately, something she only ever does with her spartans, asking if you're ready to cause trouble and Linda shocks John by giving you a spartan smile on your helmet, which you promptly return. He has no idea who you're asking about when you turn to Fred and wonder about the Ferrets and company, a note of warmth taking hold in your tone.

He finds out it's Kelly who hunted his partner down the moment she heard rumors about you being involved with him and made it her personal mission to watch over you, a mission that Fred and Linda jump aboard instantly without even meeting his partner first. When Fred found out you joined the Spartan IV program, he requested your transfer to Blue team indefinitely and the three had trained you to be the best after them. So that you could survive their world to see John again and he feels his chest constrict when he knows he's the reason you signed yourself up for their world of bloodshed and war.

Halo Reloaded - Spartan-II Training Schedule

I've wanted to flesh this out for while, but here we go. Note: this seems impossible... it's because it is.

General Information:

From Monday through Friday (except Wednesday), they start every morning with stretching, then they do 50 jumping jacks; after a quick breather, they do the following routine below.

100 total squats, push-ups, chin-ups, crunches and sit-ups. 50 of these every morning after the jumping jacks, then they do another 50 before bed.

Go to class, listen to a lecture on tactics used by the Spartans of Greece and the Roman Empire. This goes from 1000 to 1200 (Lunch Break), from 1300 to 1500 is recess at the obstacle-course where parkour and acrobatics are to be practiced, then class resumes from 1600 to 1800.

Night-Routine, then bed.

Monday:

After a one hour break from the morning routine, they go on a one kilometer run with small sand-bags tied to every Spartan-cadet's ankles. (A work-out routine inspired by Rocky Marciano.)

They practice swimming for an hour from 1900 to 2000 shortly after class.

Tuesday:

After a one hour break from the morning routine, they step into a VR-simulator that trains them to eject from drop-pods.

At 1900 to 2000, they spar with each other; two per circle (every pair gets an individual circle). The art is a martial-art native only to the Spartans called "Spartan-Kata"; it's heavily influenced by four martial-arts: Krav Maga, Collegiate Wrestling, Judo and Kali. One is armed with tonfas and is on the offensive, the other is unarmed and on the defensive; the unarmed opponent gets a turn to be on the offense while the armed opponent learns to be defensive. They switch offensive/defensive positions at 30 minutes into the sparring session.

Wednesday:

Break on both the morning and evenings. It's just lessons for the entire day. They don't even do the morning/night routines, they just wake up, recover, go to class and return to bed.

Thursday:

In the morning, they play a game of CTF in the Zero-Grav Chamber using laser-guns that respond to their Zero-Grav Suits' sensors. (It's just Ender's Game.)

In the evening, they learn to disassemble, clean and reassemble their guns (don't worry, they're not loaded) for the first 30 minutes; in the last 30 minutes, they go to the targeting range to practice their aim. From ages 8 - 11, they use laser-guns (similar ones seen in the Zero-Grav Chamer); they are taught fire-arm safety and how to properly use guns, then from ages 12 - 16, they're taught to practice with real-gunloaded with live-rounds.

Friday:

They do their usual morning and night routine, though they go to class for the first half of the day; after lunch, they don't go to recess. For the rest of the day onward, they do a group "survival-activity" that they must complete before the day is over. If any Spartan fails to complete the exercise and return to the training-facility, ONI personnel will personally collect them and return them back to base with the usual penalty for failure/coming-in-last being no dinner.

Saturday:

Rest & Recovery Day. No class or training, obstacle-course is always open.

Sunday:

Rest & Recovery Day. No class or training, obstacle-course is always open.

Meal-Time:

Breakfast: Lots of organic-eggs (either scrambled or over-easy, depends on what the cadet wants) and scalloped potatoes, a slice of ham with a side of plain-crackers. Drinks are a glass of water.

Lunch: Fried-Chicken and fish with brown rice and a side of mashed-potatoes slathered in gravy. Drinks are orange-juice.

Dinner: Turkey slathered with gravy and ice-cream covered in hot-fudge syrup. Drinks are a glass of milk.

Class-Snacks: Plain-Crackers with a glass of milk and a side of Vitamin-Gummy packs.

Additional Information:

Every night, the Spartans sleep to white-noise.

After getting themselves in bed, they are first treated with story-time as they fall asleep; Deja, the AI that teaches the Spartans in Halsey's absence, reads them stories from ancient Greece, namely the stories from Classical Mythology, but sometimes real events thay transpired then, too. Deja swaps over to white-noise once everyone has fallen asleep.

All of this was done from ages 8 to 16. In John's case, due to him being the youngest by two years, 6 to 14.

its a small thing but i wrote in oathsworn that zevlor "smelled mildly of pepper, camphor, and leather" (and mention balsam elsewhere)

i picked these because:

Pepper: common, cheap, and easily harvested if necessary; he and the tieflings are on foot, they need Something to make food taste good, and I presume he and a few others would take it upon themselves to harvest it when they can.

Camphor: moth balls. keeps critters out of the armor/clothing.

Balsam: similar reason as pepper, you can find it canonically, its also a woodsier smell that compliments camphor.

Leather: his armor. he wears it All The Time, im sure the scent just clings to him at that point

just wanted to share.... i love making perfume so i might make this one too....

#zevlor #black pepper specifically btw #headcanon #i dont have camphor but maybe ill get some #to go with my raph and star perfumes #oh what kind of bottle.... something spartan i think but with an interesting inlay or something

[gotstabbedbyapen]

This is my headcanon, and I'm being crazy about it.

The Lacedaemonian dynasty (King Lacedaemon and his descendants) has a sort of "love curse":

Every Spartan royalty (both kings and queens) will meet the love of their lives during their youth.

They proclaim their love at the Eurotas River and will go on dates by the banks.

They will live happily together for many years.

Suddenly, tragedy struck, and they would be separated from their beloved for at least ten years.

The couple will face trials and tribulations when trying to get back together.

After ten years or so, they will be reunited.

And they finally got their final happy ending.

I basically came up with this because of Apollo/Hyacinthus and Menelaus/Helen.

Both are very much in love. Both are torn from each other. Both got back together.

They even have dates by the banks of Eurotas (recorded in Ovid's "Metamorphoses" and Euripides' "Helen")!!! Like what's up with this family and the fricking river???

what if. spartans who don't like how smooth their skin is. who when out of their suits are disturbed by how smooth their skin is. the texture of the bodysuit that holds the gel layer is textured and that feels better.

all the injuries. all the hits they've taken. the pain they've endured. yet no scars to show for it. it feels wrong. their skin is far too smooth.

in a way, yes, their armor is their uniform. a second skin. but it's also what protects them - not entirely physically - but also mentally. when their body isn't as mangled as it seems to be, the ridges and grooves and texture of their armor and the bodysuit makes their bodies seem a little more accurate to how they feel they should be.

college au nonsense pt. 1

“You think he’s got a girlfriend he hasn’t told us about?” Kelly shifts in her chair, her attention riveted on her brother, who’d been waylaid between the register and the table by a dark-haired woman Kelly didn’t recognize. The ambient symphony of scraping chairs and echoey conversations drowns out whatever words are passing between them, but their body language is speaking volumes all on its own.

Her other brother shrugs. “Wouldn’t be the first time.”

Linda snorts. “We only found out about what’s-his-name a week after they hooked up.”

Kelly smirks across the table. “You know he’s still got that guy’s number in his phone? I saw it the other day.”

“God.”

Over Linda’s shoulder, Kelly can see her brother’s conversation coming to a close. The woman smiles and places a hand on his forearm. The touch lingers for a few seconds before she takes a step back and, with a parting wave, begins to head in the opposite direction.

Moments later, Fred joins them.

“Who was that?” Kelly tips her head toward the mystery woman’s retreating back.

Fred offers a one-shouldered shrug, focusing more on his lunch than anyone at the table. “A friend. We have a class together, she was reminding me what pages we need to read for the lecture tomorrow.”

“Oh, that’s nice…” Fred still hadn’t looked up from his sandwich. Kelly pounces. “...and she had to touch your arm to do that?”

“She’s cute,” John cuts in. “You should ask her out.”

“Subtlety of a brick, thanks,” Kelly gripes, shooting a sideways glare in her brother's direction.

For the first time since he'd sat down, and with his face a few shades pinker than usual, Fred looks up at his siblings. He seems to be on the verge of defending himself, but is quickly interrupted by the approach of another dark-haired woman. This one, Kelly did recognize.

She gives the group a bright smile and slides a piece of paper across the table to John. “Here’s that cheat sheet I promised. Just don’t mention me if they catch you with it during the test.” She winks and hefts her bookbag higher on her shoulder. “I’d stay and chat but I’m on my way to class. Talk later!”

Fred waits until the sound of her footsteps fades into the rest of the noise, then nails his brother with a semi-hostile stare. “And when are you gonna ask her out, huh?”

John mirrors the expression.

Fred cocks an eyebrow. “Hey, turnabout is fair play. Don’t get on the field if you’re not ready for the game.”

“Touché,” John eventually concedes, sitting back with a huff. “...shithead.”

noble team headcanons to ease the pain of getting emotionally attached to them all exactly right before they all fucking died. thanks halo reach.

kat headbutts people as a display of affection. carter can't count how many times he's been standing around or just near her and suddenly he's stumbling because she lowered her head and. bonk.

jorge knows how to dance in almost every way imaginable. he taught himself some, learned some from other people, looked the rest up and followed tutorials. in his defense, your honor, he was left unsupervised, and he was bored. he ends up teaching six how to swing dance because he noticed six seemed interested by the motions.

helmet bumps and nuzzles as a display of affection. to people unfamiliar, it looks fucking ridiculous, because they bonk their heads directly against each other's - top to top - and then shake their heads slightly. it makes a kind of awful grating noise sometimes, but it's their equivalent of a nose rub with each other.

"...why does emile look so uncomfortable?" "six." "what? oh, six is staring again, aren't they." "yup." "man.. and they've really been doing that so long it's on their file?" "yeeeeup." "man. i don't like that." "i don't think emile does either."

squabbling over the dumbest shit. jun had to go look up the definition of a marker and a pen to settle a debate about if markers count as pens or not. by definition, they are! kat was delighted with herself, jorge and carter were distraught by the news. six started the debate.

six accidentally dozing off on another member and everyone being astonished by it, seeing as they have that "lone wolf" tendency and all that. and yet, here they are. completely conked out on a teammate's shoulder, snuffling in their sleep happily. (they all have at least three photos of it. mostly for petty blackmail.)

someone accidentally calls jorge "dad" and after they all have their fun teasing that person, they all start doing it. six chokes over a laugh the first time they hear carter do it casually, and laughs harder when jorge responds to it instinctively, before freezing and visibly going ????? at himself, and carter.

"...i love you guys." "we know, jorge." "love you too, dad." "come on, don't get all sappy on us." "ugh, gross. i love you too, big guy." "...." "six, you know you're included in that, right?" "i am??" "six, don't tell me you thought you weren't a part of the team. you're here for a reason. now sit your bitchass down and join the cuddle pile." "i... yes ma'am?"

Working on a fic and realizing I have two opposing headcanons.

Spartans know they could crush Normal People with no effort at all and have trained themselves to be extra super gentle and careful.

Spartans don’t know their own strength, have high-fived Normal People into next week, and cracked ribs from Spartan bear hugs are not unheard of in the infirmary.

Here's my two cents on "Spartan x Reader" headcanons.

Spartan-1337 is basically a male Cal-141 in that they're both doting, but where Cal is gentle with her SO, 1337 is boisterously proud and brazenly open about his relationship with his SO.

1337: shows them off proudly to his fellow spartans This is my SOULMATE!!!!!

Welcome to the 'here me out' train because I am here for this.

BUT THIS IS SO TRUE. The rest of the spartans wouldn't believe it, even Cortana is like "Really? Huh." But Spartan-1337 would show off any chance he gets and he's just so happy with them

#thank you for adding to the headcanons #I'm here for it #this is a movement now #thank you #halo #halo series #spartan 1337 #spartan 1337 x reader #Also Cal brain riot #she's just the sweetest #helix-studios117

Some fun facts about Master Chief & the rest of the Spartans of Halo Reloaded

John is the most reclusive Spartan out of everyone; which wouldn't mean much in the main-canon, but it DOES mean a lot in THIS AU, since the other Spartans are far more well-adjusted here. He's not a bad person, but everyone tends to refer to him as "The Mean Spartan," since he's such a brusque, aloof and terse hardnosed-bruiser with a chip on his shoulder; he still demonstrates high levels of kindness, compassion and empathy, but he's not soft, not by any stretch of the imagination. While he's FAR MORE well-adjusted than his canon-self and his TV-self, in comparison to his brothers-&-sisters-in-arms in THIS AU? He's definitely the one with baggage, probably from being the youngest in the program, which sort of made him an easy target of ridicule.

Female Spartans eat a bunch. To put it all in Layman's Terms: Female Spartans need more food because their bodies are designed to build and maintain more muscle, thanks to higher levels of certain growth-promoting hormones. This means they eat more to keep up with their body’s demands for energy and muscle repair, especially after tough battles or training. Male Spartans, on the other hand, have bodies that are tweaked to be more efficient, using less energy and therefore needing less food. Their hormonal setup is adjusted to support long missions without the need for constant eating, focusing on endurance. Females likely eat a lot of protein (for muscle repair), carbs (for quick energy), and fats (for long-lasting energy and hormone health). Males eat a balanced diet too but in smaller quantities, making sure they get enough protein and healthy fats without overeating. In short: Female Spartans eat like Saiyans, Male Spartans eat like Kryptonians.

John: burnt marshmallows. The rest of the team hates him for it.

Linda: she is patient and waits for a perfectly golden-brown marshmallow.

Kelly: it takes to long to cook in the fire. She eats them raw.

Fred: so paranoid about getting the perfect marshmallow that it ends up slightly over done or slightly under done. John also won’t stop setting Fred’s marshmallows on fire with his burning marshmallow.

Sam: he doesn’t like them. Too sugary, he literally cannot have them, it makes him throw up.

"So tell me more about Rio. What else did I miss?"

"Aw man, the place is a mess. I mean, too many Covenant asylum seekers all penned up. ... We even caught this one Sangheili freak trying to detonate a HAVOK nuke-"

343.

My God, this line has lived rent free in my head since Halo 4 came out.

Imagine the possibilities here!

What is that like, for all the people involved? How did the former Covenant get to Earth and seek asylum? How many are there? Other than humans and Sangheili, what species are represented there? How was a Sangheili able to steal a HAVOK nuke? Did that operation involve SPARTANS running through neighborhoods like it was the OG Modern Warfare 2 favela missions? Are any of the aliens hot? Are any of them cute & breedable?

343, WE MUST KNOW!!!

Just like Anvil Station, you've set up awesome world building and done NOTHING with it! When you showed alien-human interactions in Legacy of Onyx, it was brilliant! Give us more, I beg you!

~*It’s time for: Headcanon Time | Guest Staring: @pieman1112 ~

//This is going to be a long headcanon post but I wanted to give a little more context about Josephine's dream of being a Bow Knight. Since Shadows of Valentia is a remake of FE2 Gaiden, In the game Bow Knights are a male only class, while Pegasus Knight is a female only class. Which to me honestly is weird and makes no sense. In future games there many more women that can become archers and also bow knights and it took Fates to make the first male Pegasus Knight which was a long time coming.

So in this head canon, as a child Josephine wanted to be just like her dear grandfather Reginald the first. During his time in the military, he was a Bow Knight but also could become a Myrimidon, a sword unit, if there was a need for him to do so in battle. So when his youngest granddaughter asked if she could learn how to use a bow as well, he was more than honored to teach her everything he knew. His former military colleagues would tell him that he shouldn't teach her that. He would simply laugh and tell them, "If she want to use the bow to fight then so be it! She's my granddaughter after all!"

It was not easy at first to shoot an arrow while on a horse but with practice and her grandfather's guidance she managed to do so. When she was around 13 years old, it was her time to start her military training in the Rigelian army. Her grandfather had unfortunately passed away when she was 10 years old so he never got the chance to see her in her armor. Since Josephine had experience riding horses, it was easy for her to become a Cavalier and she did get used to using a lance, but when she asked about reclassing her to a Bow Knight, her grandfather's old colleagues refused to promote her to that unit. However, they did agree that she was skillful with a horse and had potential just like her grandfather. So they instead encouraged her to become a Paladin. All she really could do was customize her armor to look as close to a Bow Knight's armor but not make it too obvious for her peers to notice.

As a teenager, the Emperor Rudolf and those were close to him were intimating so she never brought up her wanting to be a Bow Knight to him. She mostly was on patrols near where she lived and sometimes fought terrors and monsters for the most part. When she turned 18, she had the choice of staying in the army and be promoted to Paladin or go back to being a boring noble woman to 'prepare for marriage'. She picked the latter option as she realized she would never get to be a Bow Knight while the old military order was still around. So she gave up on her dream believing that no one in Valentia would ever think that a woman could be a Bow Knight. She never spoke about her time in the military to anyone except to Berkut. The only reason he knows is because he found Josephine's military records when he was making sure she would be good friend for Rinea and was confused why someone with high marks would suddenly leave. She had told him that it was better for her family if she married a higher noble in the future and she enjoyed being in Rinea's company. "That does explain why you were able to fight back those assassins with a lance with ease. It is a shame really, you would have been an excellent Paladin for my army. Should you ever change you mind, I can have that arranged. I am the crown prince after all." Is what Berkut told her. He did however make her a secret bodyguard for Rinea but would be a 'lady in waiting' or some sorts in public. Josephine agreed to this and as order she never told Rinea the truth about it but Rinea figured it out easily since Josephine helped her get away from any fighting close by and had seen her fight before.

Perhaps due to Alm and Celica being much more open with changes, Josephine feels like perhaps she might be able to become a Bow Knight or at least have other girls like her be able to become archers. She has yet to tell her Hunter (or any beloved that could have had) about her military days since they are not the happiness moments in her life but he will find out soon enough. It will certainly be a huge surprise to everyone when she does show off in a battle the same skills that Bow Knights have.
