[qliphoths]

Headcanons are my absolute favourite part of RP, so I wanted an excuse to be nosy and read some of yours!!


This was a pretty popular one back on tumblr!
1) post your blank TLs
2) send each other fruits/questions!
Honestly, the fruits aren't necessary but they make it cute.

If this one doesn't suit your fancy, I'll post a TL with a
more detailed meme and you can send each other prompts
on that instead.
(credit!)

She's not the type to think far ahead into the future, generally focusing way more on the present and, to a lesser extent, the more immediate future. Anything she does see is going to be broad/general...and it would've been "back home and off this bucket"--until she found out they couldn't go back.

Realistically, she knows there's no guarantees now...and odds are she'll be in the void or maybe properly dead. She'd like to imagine something better, but she isn't going to get her hopes up... (If actually asked, though, she'd claim that of course they'll get off the ship and beat the captain and etc...even if she's not truly that confident about it;;)

Coffee and tea kinda take place of snacks throughout the day, though she might have a pastry with them if she's feeling hungry or needs extra perking up. She usually has a smaller meal around lunchtime when she wakes up, and dinner scheduled at 6. So she eats regularly these days since it's part of her social schedule.

She prefers seafood, especially shrimp. She's also a fan of fresh fruit, and soups. She doesn't overly like fried or greasy foods or anything that's too heavy. She doesn't like a whole lot of different things on her plate at once, but will steal bites of food that looks interesting off somebody else's plate.

She likes sweets in moderation, but nothing overly sweet. If she gets something she doesn't like she might give it 1-2 bites before giving up on it, she's not the sort to try powering through a meal she dislikes. When she first arrived she was really into trying everything, but she's been around long enough she mostly knows her buffet favorites.

She hates plain chicken breast and steamed vegetables. :( or anything that requires too much cutting up into smaller pieces. She has no idea how to cook anything that can't be shoved in a microwave.

11. Book genre fave?
43. Thoughts on religion?

1) If it's something minor: complaining or fireballing! If it's something more major/tiring: sleep and cuddling her plush... If she can't sleep, she'll try reading/problem-solving, sometimes looking out at the sea/sky. And lately, she can't deny that there's something kind of soothing about just relaxing with someone (especially a certain someone).

2) Very Normally... When she loves someone, she both feels so much herself and is more receptive/thoughtful regarding the other party's feelings (or...perceived feelings when it's blastia...). She's going to be affectionate, playful, protective; less prideful, willing to do things she might find embarrassing (again, see: Estelle not knowing that eat your words is a figure of speech, so Rita pretends to literally eat them at her insistence...); their pain is her pain and their happiness/well-being becomes her #1 priority. She wants to just spend time with them, even if that time isn't being spent doing anything "productive", because being with who she loves is never a waste of time (and anyone who suggests it is is going to regret it!!).

Basically: kitty love 😻

46: If they were to fall in love, who (or what) is their ideal?
& 47: How do they express love?

Pray he gets a happy ending. I'm skeptical.

🍍: Ava's so very uncomfortable in her body :( because her powers are both the source of constant pain, and the reason she was taken into shield custody. she struggles to control her phasing and doing simple tasks can be frustrating.

she has a hard time wanting to be seen, or drawing attention, so she prefers to dress in lazy nondescript clothing. she'll try to make effort for some occasions to look prettier, but she's rather sensitive about the compliments. she has a hard time seeing herself attractive. she has no problem with her features or body shape or any of that, but is used to her condition causing people to look at her negatively. and she's had a hard time taking good care of herself during her periods of failing health. she mostly focuses on trying to look better rested. she likes her hair, though.

🍓: she probably comes off a bit standoffish toward those she doesn't know, given her tendency to quickly disappear or not wanting to give away too much in conversation. honestly i have no idea what other characters think of her on first impression, but she tends to stumble into a lot of misunderstandings. she doesn't try to present herself any sort of way.

7. Ava grew up with a lot of idle alone time, so she's good at finding ways to keep herself from being bored. She's happy to waste her time on puzzles or trying to figure out her latest curiosity or creating some sort of challenge for herself. She doesn't have a huge drive to keep productive, but likes having little tasks to keep herself entertained and engaged. Otherwise she has a tendency to just lay in bed and read all day.

Ooooo, this is interesting because it seems like there isn’t a very strong line between childhood and adulthood on the Sixth. Pal is able to pass a series of exams that make him the leader of his people by the time he’s thirteen, and it seems pretty clear that adulthood vs. childhood is more defined by moving up through the academic ranks than age.

All of that said! I’d guess that he’d call “childhood” his life before age ten or so, and he’d probably call it uneventful, happy, and productive. He grew up in a society that fed and encouraged his intelligence, had great parents, and succeeded at his every ambition. That definitely impacted him: it gave him his warmth and his confidence, though it also made him arrogant and bad with failure. I don’t think he would ever choose to go back to childhood—he is very much someone who believes in looking forward—but from time to time he misses the simplicity and innocence.

Coded love note to 6 because he said it was cute 🥰

Hilariously, this has a canon answer!



So: write fix-it fic for a romance novel.

He'd also obsessively work on whatever problem he's currently trying to solve--on the Serena Eterna that would probably mean trying to devise a necromatic theorem that would help passengers escape the ship.

While Pal doesn’t seek out a lot of friends or need to spend time with a lot of people, he is very much used to having companionship. He and Camilla, his best friend and sworn cavalier, have been extremely close since childhood, and he feels extraordinarily lonely without her on the ship. They have barely spent any time apart for most of their life, and he still feels at a loss because he lacks that intimacy and companionship. It’s one of the reasons why physical closeness became part of his relationship with Clarke so quickly.

tbh if the popularity aspiration from The Sims was a character, it would be Shi Qingxuan quite frankly...

Loves being around other people and hates being alone. Being alone (or ignored!!) is one of the worst things! He's easygoing and casual, good with names and faces, and doesn't care about things like differences in social standing or other people's reputations, etc. etc. Very much someone who loves others and wants to be a good friend.

I personally headcanon that, because his early life was spent pretending to be someone else and the rest of his mortal life involved being cursed and unable to make friends or trust anyone, he's always making up for lost time by trying to befriend everyone and clinging tightly to anyone that manages to gain his trust... 🥲

🍑:
As mentioned in another answer, Darcy does consider her fashion and styles her hair, but she doesn't fuck with makeup or grooming past that. Avery back home was a big influence on her and was the catalyst for her to start adopting actual grooming habits beyond the teenage 'I showered and put on clean clothes'. Kind of hard not to run around with a dude in animal print suits and not see the impact that fashion has on how people perceive you.

🍇:
Darcy would describe it as firmly 'okay'. When she was younger, she struggled with the expectations of conformity that her extended family put on her and her parents- especially after she started taking up sports. She was a tomboy way past the point where it was considered 'cute', and while she's always been fussy about mud and nature, she was also pretty rambunctious and energetic. When Darcy was about 7 or 8 she developed a fascination with knights and dragons that has definitely stuck around (even if she hates to admit it), and her dad (who'd been a champion speed-chess player in university) attempted to put her into a chess club with disastrous results. Darcy doesn't really consider herself a child anymore, and sees her mother's injury as the pivotal point where she had to step up and mature. Of course, aboard the ship she's discovering how that isn't necessarily the case. But, point is, she at least considers herself Done with her childhood, and the only path she sees forward is becoming more of an adult, not looking back. She's definitely the type to hate her younger self for being dumb and cringe.

🍓:
SHE DON'T GIVE A DAMN BOUT HER BAD REPUTATION *guitar riff*

Back home Darcy was a social pariah for her history of mental health issues and also the getting into fights with people and the lesbianism. As far as she was concerned, people were already going to dislike her, so she may as well keep doing what she's doing and give them reasons to leave her alone. Aboard the ship, even now she's still getting used to the idea that people might hear of her in positive ways. She's always been the kind of person whose self-image was contained more in how she thinks of herself than the opinions of others, and she holds tight to some core parts of herself. She knows she's a bitch, she's strong as hell, and she's brave. Any other opinions of her are other people's problems.

9. Darcy is terrified of horses after being bitten by one at a birthday party when she was younger. She considers this an entirely rational reaction and does not comprehend why anyone would willingly go near a horse ever. She's also terrified of deep bodies of water, for far more understandable reasons. Additionally, she will salute her opponent with her sword before any sparring match even if I forget to write it because the fear of getting a yellow card for not doing it lives on in her.

26. it used to be that she just let other people decide the shape her life was taking. But since she's been on the ship, it's that she never made peace with her mother. She doesn't talk about it, but it still weighs on her.

38. Loud, energetic music, lowkey exercise like jogging, alone time, and long showers.
