Could we get some tickle monster headcanons for the matsuno boys? I can imagine there's an endless amount of shenanigans that goes down between the six of them and your headcanons in the past have been so cute!

Ahhh, yes, adorabe request! I need to catch up on requests so I promise there's more coming after this, I've just been slow at getting to them!

~

Osomatsu: He will tickle his brothers over anything and everything with the only person he has trouble wrestling down being Karamatsu, but the other four are fair game.

• Does it all the time to reinforce his place as the eldest brother, so of course, he's gonna make them as embarrassed as possible while he's at it. He's so sickeningly teasey and there's no method he won't try.  Pokes and squeezes? No stomach is safe. Raspberries? He'll go until they're both out of breath. Playfully noms? You bet your life his baby brothers are so cute he just wants to eat them up. He has no shame and he makes that everybody else's problem.

• Choro and Totty are his biggest victims. Choro because he's so uptight all the time, always trying to tell him what to do with his life, and Totty because he needs to be humbled once in a while. Plus, his place as the youngest makes him a natural target for big brother shenanigans.

• He's a massive, goofy douche when he's playing tickle monster, and he laughs along the whole time as well. Ticking him back also isn't satisfying, at least if you're doing it out of revenge, because even if his target manages to turn the tables on him, his grin stays just as shit-eating as ever. He is only a little bit ticklish, just enough for you to get a good snicker out of him, but he's only smiling that widely because he finds the whole situation hilarious and fun.

• Overall very embarrassing on purpose but he finds quite a lot of genuine fun in it. And while he does intentionally try to fluster the person he's tormenting with teases, he somehow also manages to make them less self-conscious about the whole thing with how nonchalant he is when it comes to that kind of intimacy.

Karamatsu: Cheer-up tickles are his favorite but he's not above using them to teach his younger brothers a lesson. He's less of a tease than Oso is though.

• Unlike Oso who's embarrassing on purpose, anyone he decides to target immediately gets put in their place when they realize just how easily he's able to wrestle them down, all while being excruciatingly gentle.

• He's not one to tease, but the satisfied smirk on his face is almost worse, to his brothers at least. If he is being particularly playful, like when he's tickling Jyushi or Choro, then he does tend to throw in a few teases here and there, but they're more akin to compliments and genuine affectionate cooing. Usually drones on the whole time in some flowery way about the importance of staying in good spirits and how it warms his heart to see a smile on their face, and it's not like they can just ignore him like they usually do when he's literally holding them on his lap and forcing said dazzling smile out of them.

• Choro and Jyushi both also happen to be his biggest victims. Choro because he's always stressing himself out and needs to lighten up, and Jyushi because they've always had a really good big brother-little brother relationship and Jyushi is one of the few that lets him lean into the big brother role often, so they play around a lot. He's also gotten more than a few black eyes from Ichi but that hasn't stopped him from being one of the few people in the house dumb enough to tickle him. He does so just long enough to get a real laugh out of his usually morose younger brother then quickly releases him and runs for it before Ichi has the chance to collect himself.

• Kara is a blast to retaliate against. He's extremely ticklish to the point where all that strength he has becomes completely useless and he falls apart into a blushing, guffawing mess as soon as you lay your hands on him. It's more adorable when you realize he doesn't fight back at all since he secretly really enjoys the closeness and bonding aspect of it, even if it means you get to see him lose his cool composure. You could tickle him back for as long as you'd like and he'd never once try to get away.

• Him and Oso have a little bit of a rivalry going on since they're both the only brother the other can't wrestle down easily. Kara has a strength advantage over Oso, so he's always the one to give Oso his comeuppance, but Kara is way more ticklish, so if Oso can get him down, Kara crumbles and becomes helpless. Their tickle fights are a lot more like actual tickle fights as compared to the one-sided torment they inflict on their younger brothers.

• Overall, very painful and boisterous the whole time but also super gentle and not one to overdo it like Oso or some of the others.

Choromatsu: He's not nearly bold enough to be a tickler. Instead ending up as the one most often on the receiving end of the tickling, usually from Oso and Kara. He tries really hard to assert himself as one of the eldest, but they've both collectively decided they don't agree (despite it technically being true) and feel the need to remind him just what a cute little brother he is to them, making him one of the only targets the two of them will team up together against.

• Extremely ticklish all over and finds being tickled very embarrassing, so he always goes red-faced before it even starts, nervously trying to back away or talk himself out of it. He's a serious flailer too, so usually one person has to sit on his back or waist to keep him from getting away because he's such a squirmy little guy.

• His frantic laugh is adorable and his voice goes high when begging for mercy because he gets so unbelievably flustered by it, even to this day.

• He has attempted to tickle Oso back on a few occasions but it didn't go too well with him and immediately had the tables turned, so he's not too eager to try again. He has successfully tickled Totty on a few occasions to cheer him up but precariously avoids the others when they're having tickle fights because he knows if they so much as hear him from the other room he'll be pulled into it because he's such an easy target. It doesn't help that the others show absolutely no restraint with him and will tickle him until he's wheezing then move on with their day like it's the most normal thing in the world, leaving him a tired mess on the floor.

• Ichimatsu: Another one who is far too reserved to be a tickler and avoids it like the plague. Similarly to Choro, he will struggle for his very life to try to get away before it even starts and when he's finally been wrestled down will consistently throw harsh punches and kicks at his brothers in an attempt to throw them off, all while yelling a wide variety of swears and threats

• The only people in the house to dare target him regularly are Karamatsu and Jyushimatsu. Jyushimatsu because he's the only one of his brothers that can get away with it without harsh backlash and Karamatsu because to him, whatever promises of violence Ichi makes through gritted teeth are more than worth going through for the smile and laughter that follow.

• He'll fight it for as long as he can but when he finally breaks his laughter is quiet and wheezy, often further muffled by his hands if he's able to cover his face or bury it in the carpet. Hiccups a lot as well because he's still fighting for his life to try to hold back but once the flood gates open it's impossible for him to regain his composure completely. Jyushi called him Gigglymatsu once, resulting in the only time Ichi has ever threatened his younger brother as well as sending a spine-chilling glare at anyone who dares to repeat the embarrassing nickname. Unfortunately for him they still refer to him as that in private.

• He gets tired quickly but his brothers know his limits pretty well so he never has to endure it for too long. Almost always falls asleep right after too, but when he finally wakes up whoever did the tickling had better have spent that time finding a good place to hide.

Jyushimatsu: He's a wholesome menace. Tickle monster Jyushi is as unpredictable as he is impartial. He'll pounce anyone for any reason but most of the time it's cause he sees them looking down. He's not a malicious tickler by any means, so once he's had his fill and is convinced they've been properly cheered up he's quick to let then go, even helping them back onto their feet.

• While Kara is the strongest when it comes to normal human standards, I think we all know Jyushimatsu has the unfair advantage of being Jyushimatsu. So there's no getting away from him once he's successfully pounced. He'll probably let you go if you ask nicely, but only if you can promise that you're feeling better!

• He is the resident tickle monster of the house, so he gets each of his brothers quite a lot, but his biggest victim is Ichimatsu. Mostly because he's the only one that can get away with tickling him without the threat of bodily injury. He's also wise enough not to do it when anybody else is around because he just wants to see his big brother's real smile.

• Very ticklish himself and loves tickle fights. Doesn't even bother to fight back when he's the victim besides excitedly kicking the floor or gripping their wrists. If he really wanted to throw them off he totally could but he finds the whole thing very fun and is more or less letting them take their turn. The only downside is that he sees it as an endurance competition so either you have to exhaust him or he's going to exhaust you, and chances are you don't have the advantage of being a near-endless ball of energy like he does.

Todomatsu: He and Choro are the resident ticklees of the house, but he's a little better at avoiding it than Choro is. Is targeted by everyone because of his attitude and because he's the youngest and he hates it with a passion. Maybe not quite as much as Ichi does but he still finds it humiliating, especially the way Oso is so sickeningly teasy about it.

• Deep down there's for sure a part of him that enjoys being treated like a little brother, even in an exaggerated teasing way, but his ego's too big to let him enjoy it like Jyushi does so he's gonna avoid it at all costs.

• Choro is probably the only brother he doesn't mind tickling him since he's not embarrassing like Oso, painful like Karamatsu, or overly obnoxious like Jyushi, but he'll take the fact that he even has a preference to his grave.

• Will tickle his brothers if someone else is helping him. Has tickled Karamatsu on a few occasions while Oso held him down in an attempt to get him to change out of his tacky fashion before going out together, but he most commonly teams up with Ichi and Jyushi so they can all get back at the older three.

headcanon:

animatsu gained their mother’s eyesight and are BLIND ASF

osomatsu doesn’t like wearing his glasses nor does he want to stick his fingers in his eyes for contacts (he’s a big baby…ofc), so he became stubborn enough to just squint at everything. and he likes to be like “i’m dumb and can’t read words”, like he uses the fact that he’s an idiot that can’t read. but he literally CAN’T READ. CUZ HE CAN’T SEE THE WORDS.

literally catch him trying to see what his brothers are laughing and pointing at and he’s just squinting and he gets frustrated cuz he wants to laugh too.

karamatsu wears contacts canonically. BUT i headcanon that they’re prescription and he just asked for them to be colored. (if thats all possible)

choromatsu wears contacts. the glasses he wore in high school, he REFUSES to even LOOK AT (if he can lmao haha loser- i really shouldn’t talk. i’m blind as hell) he has a new pair, which is much nicer, but he opts for contacts. more specifically, the 1-day ones. he only ever wears his glasses when he’s home and not going out. and when he’s at job interviews because ‘glasses make me look smart’.

darlingpost darling post get out while u still can

this is my ososan self insert darling! not their real name they get named a la homestuck aka they need a name and so thats what we call this guy

visual arts student in their last year, no gender unless its funny, always wear comfy or flowy clothes that hide the chest (SHRODINGERS BOOBS?? ((they r flat theyre like a ken doll, )))

le ref sheet

IN MY HEAD darling was like photocopying some doujin pages they were working on (for fun) at some store bc their printer broke or wathevs and then fucked up and suddenlly all the papers are scattered everywhere!!! noooo the gay porn!!! and karamatsu is like oh hang on let me help u with those my good sir (darling is dressed like a mess here) and darling is so fucking embarrassed but still goes like ummm thank uuu??? and karamatsu is like of course! no need to thank me!! karmatsu matsuno!!!<introduces himself here and darling is like waaaa he so nice and doesnt think im a freak for LITERALLY PRINTING GAY PORN IN PUBLIC WHAT THE FUCK anyway they do small talk with like ah yes great work here get home safe dont lose those papers again yes sir yes sir!!

karamatsu goes on with his life but darling is like waaa he was so nice i wanna be friends or something but idk if i will everrr find him again siiighhh. buut like one week later darling is all dressed up on theyr way to the city museum bc they help out there for school credit (is that a thing in japan idk this is me playing with dolls) but still have some time to kill to get there and on the way they see karamatsu in the distance and darling is like oh! i can say hi!! so they go but bc they r dressed more cutesy now karamatsu immediately starts doing his bit before darling even says hi hes like: "AH YES OUR FATED MEETING WAS WRITTEN IN THE STARS!! YES IVE BEEN SEEING U IN MY DREAMS AND MAY IT BE FATE THAT HAS BROUGHT U TOGETHER¿ RIGHT NOW MY **DARLING**!!" or something like that and darling is an idiot so they go "OMG HE REMEMBERS ME FROM LAST TIME! AND HE WANTS ME TO KEEP HIM COMPANY!! OR SOMETHING IM NOT SURE WHATS HE TALKING ABOUT!" point is darling doesn't ask for his name cause they already know it and karamatsu quite literally just names them darling and then they go on a not date to the museum cause i say so

dont get me wrong i ship them but also theyre both so fail at this bc darling is an airhead and karamatsu is....karamatsu

they would be the kind of ship that starts dating without knowing which i find funny bc karamatsu would make a big deal out of asking darling out and darling would be like oh as a friend right and would miss every romance cue ever but then when darling would be like hey are we dating and karamatsuu would be like *dies from both exasperation and relief* and then darling would be too concerned about getting him to the hospital and forgets about the dating part im hjust having fun here

darling tag with silly stuff

ANYWAY darlin n karamatsu are besties darling likes hearing him talk bc its funny and they compliment him on his spakly stuff n music even tho darling knows shit abt music and karamatsu hangs around trying to cheerlead darling on stuff and darling does the same, idiot to idiot communication,

ALSO darling cant see very well n they make a very goofy lights r on nobodys home face whenever they dont wear their glasses and confuse the matsus constantly at the start probably lol,

like after hanging out a bit darling probably sees totty in the city and they go OMGG KARAMACHAN U DIDNT TELL ME U WERE GOnna be in the city we could hang out and ur dressed in pink if i wore my pink cardigan we could maaatch and then realizes, they fucked up and totty is like KARAMACCHAN WHO, but totty was like, with friends and the girls are like omg totty who is this and darling is like TOTTY WHO, and his friends rope darling into hanging out bc darling straight up glomped totty there and they r never living that down ever.

and then todomatsu confronts karamatsu like DO YOU KNOW THIS GIRL and karamatsu is like ah thats darling and totty is like DIE?? anyway they get along fine n totty calls them dari-chan i think darling also gets along with osomatsu darling draws him silly stuff on request n sometimes tries to play with jyushimatsu (dies) ichi probs thinks darling has something wrong in the head to hang out w karamatsu (they do) and choromatsu is like perpetually confused, no one uses the same set of pronouns for darling which creates confusion at the start

darling is technically a nickname (and an overly cutesy one too!) so darling gets named that way by karamatsu at the start so they go oh i guess we r besties for life now and so they go like ok so i need a cutesy nickname for him so they do that and with totty darling fucks up introducing themself to him so they end up being dari-chan to him as a way to make an even more cutesy name out of an already cute nickname i just think thats funny

uuu what else what else, picky eater of the eats meat variety, short, cant see, tummy hurts, lightweight but doesnt care, this is literally me bro, this post is already so fucking long idk what else more, im just playing with dolls man

The (unofficial) birthday boy

[image description: A sketch portraying Chibita as both a child and an adult on his birthday. As a child he is sat on the floor, his only friends being a cat and a frog on his head. They are all wearing birthday hats. He has wrapped up a rock and made a cake out of mud, a candle sticking out of it. He is covering his eyes and giggling to himself. Meanwhile, adult Chibita's eyes are being covered by Karamatsu, who is rolling his eyes lovingly at his pouting face. Chibita's arms are also crossed. Multiple speech bubbles surround the two, showing his friends preparing to celebrate his birthday. Totoko has wrapped him up a large fish. Nyaa Chan is stood next to her, unamused with the gift and holding her smiling daughter. Osomatsu has his hand outstretched, embarrassed that all five of them only had three pennies to their name. The others seem proud of this achievement. Iyami is holding a cake which Hatabou has dived out of. Dayon and Dekapan are prematurely toasting two wine glasses together.]

Okay okay, I love this?! I have to make it a headcanon post though because I feel like a written out scenario would be chaotic and a little too hard to follow, so I hope that's okay! MATSUS CRASH A WEDDING LET'S GOOO, under the cut:

Leave it to Osomatsu to overhear some dude spill the details on his wedding at his bachelor party and make plans to crash the thing. Rounding up the buys, all six of them slip into the wedding venue unnoticed. Well none of them were invited, so wtf are they doing at this wedding?! Osomatsu

Immediately hits on the bridesmaids - he figures at least a few of them might be single and at least one is willing to have a one night stand, right? Right?! 

When that doesn’t work, it’s off to the bar (if there is one) to knock back whatever they’ve got. If there’s nothing to drink, he’ll move on to shooting his shot with cousins or even a widowed aunt if she’s halfway decent 

Ends up locking himself out of the venue at one point and has to literally climb the building to get back in (almost falls off twice on the way up).

Karamatsu 

Yes he brought his guitar, yes his suit is blue and yes he attempts to play Sugar by Maroon 5 because he saw the music video and thought that was a genius thing to do for a wedding.

Tanks the wine and cheese available for the guests and does his very best to strike conversation with whoever is nearby, swishing his glass as he does. 

Accidentally spills his drink on the bride and immediately runs off to the bathroom to hide for a half hour so that he can be sure no one saw or suspects him.

Choromatsu

Has to corral his brothers for the most part and that’s why he’s here - or at least that’s what tells himself as he partakes in some of the pastries at the finger food buffet.

Does actually end up screaming at Osomatsu and apologizing to a number of women for his crassness. 

Bumps into one of the server girls by accident and she ends up dropping a bunch of silverware. He freaks out in a string of apologies and dips down to help her; the two share a movie moment as they kind of connect through eye contact, but that is instantly ruined by Osomatsu attempting to drunkenly play leapfrog with him. The server girl is never seen again after that. 

Ichimatsu 

Has dipped his fingers in the wedding cake more than once because he’s astounded about how delicious the frosting is. 

Very much stands off in the corner otherwise, it’s already loud and crowded enough and he doesn’t want any part of it.

Alternatively, he ends up in the kitchen with the venue culinary staff, standing in for the head chef. He’s barking orders and cooking up a storm in his white coat - very much Gordon Ramsay style.

Jyushimatsu 

You’ll probably find him amongst the children at first, running around and playing tag or hide and seek. 

At one point ends up in the dance circle only for everyone to give him very weird looks at first because they have no idea who he is.

But as soon as he starts breakdancing and ends the routine with a headspin, the wedding guests go absolutely NUTS with cheers.

Todomatsu

Is ALSO talking to the bridesmaids, but unlike his older brother, is super chill about it. 

Almost gets the opportunity to ask one of them out on a date until both Osomatsu and Choromatsu smack his phone into a cup of water, to which Todomatsu immediately has a meltdown.

Sits in the corner sobbing with his poor cell in a bowl of rice for the remainder of the reception.

@miru667 made a su pearlsona n got other ppl to make su pearlsonas n i am not immune to FUN

Hi!! Hope you're having a nice day/evening :] Just wanted to request Karamatsu x Gothic reader. (Idk if you write the brothers separately or all together but you can totally write for the other matsubros if you want!) Gender Neutral/Fem Leaning will work just fine!

Of course! I did just Karamatsu, if you would like to see the others/specific brothers for this prompt lmk! This one is a bit short, just a heads up! osomatsu san/reader |Karamatsu/Gothic! Reader

Oh, this man adores you and your sense of style. 

Will constantly compliment you whenever he first sees you, “Oh my dark flower, how I adore your outfit today, it sets my heart ablaze seeing you express yourself!”

He loves to use dark adjectives and synonyms when addressing you, things like ‘dark flower’ and ‘my eerie darling’ are just a select few!

Will always wear his black leather jacket when he’s with you as a way to match you and your sense of style. 

He loves to take you clothes and trinket shopping for your apartment, he loves to buy you things even if you tell him it’s ok and you can afford it yourself.

“Nothing is too expensive for you my Karamatsu Darling, I shall provide only the best, whatever you desire is yours.”  

He once bought you a little black wolf glass figurine that sits on your bookshelf, something that reminds you of him whenever you see it.

On your first date, he gave you a bouquet of black roses. Now on every date, he gives you a single black rose or your favorite flower. 

If you would like to, he would love to dress up for you! Help him pick out an outfit at your favorite shop and he will wear it with sheer pride.

thjimking about karamatsu with glasses instead of shades

Y'all were probably wondering where Karamatsu's glasses went during that wholesome moment on @dreamsfulblues 's birthday, right?

Well let's just say they didn't go that far...

[COMMISSION STATUS: CLOSED]

Commissions for @thatjerkrmed, @jaymzeecat, and @ghostlyghosti! Thank you all for commissioning me! ♥

Image descriptions below the cut!

The top image depicts a Pokemon trainer with his Squirtle. The trainer is holding back his hot-headed Squirtle from getting into a fight offscreen. The Squirtle is apparently swearing by saying, "SQUIRT!! SQUIRTLE SQUIRTLE!!", prompting its trainer to scold it by saying, "Language!"

The bottom-left image depicts Karamatsu Matsuno from the Osomatsu-san series, wearing a blue kigurumi and posing seductively on some pink pillows while holding a glass of red wine. Karamatsu has a smug expression on his face as he's looking towards the camera with sparkles near his face. What a dork.

The bottom-right image depicts two characters: Oswood(left) and Graeskar(right), enjoying some crepes together. Graeskar is wiping some stray crumbs from Oswood's face, saying "Ah, let me get that for you~" to which Oswood shyly responds with "Th-thank you...", blushing and averting their gaze from the handsome pumpkin man. :3

Osomatsu: vocal to a annoying degree, he will scream if his bowl is empty. he picks on the other dogs and steals their toys. he wont respect personal space and likes cuddling

Karamatsu(not pictured here): like wearing clothes, mostly his glasses. he likes being brushed and is kind of a mediator, he doesn't like fighting (most times). he likes interacting with other dogs but usually gets picked on

Choromatsu: he has fucked up hips and is food driven. he will do anything if you give him food, do not give him human food. he's also very anxious, he doesn't like other dogs and for some reason thinks hes allowed on the couch (he sleeps alot)

Ichimatsu: very much an indoor dog, he gets heat stroke easily. hes very independent but occasionally cuddles. he's always shedding for some reason despite his short fur. he also still loves cats and runs in circles when he see's one

Jyushimatsu: he needs brushing regularly but he will avoid it no matter what. he's an escape artist and is the reason they lock the doggy door at night (he will escape if not monitored). he's very hyper and loves playing chase

Todomatsu(also not pictured here): he's very snooty and will bite your ankle. it takes him a while to get used to you and it only happens if you give him enough treats. he hates getting dirty and prefers indoors where he gets brushed

@gayroomate // plotted starter ( karamatsu )

Karamatsu doesn't go to many bars. Certainly not as many as his older brother does, anyways; typically, he just hits up either Chibita's oden stand, or the local place near their house that Osomatsu loves to take them too. It's even rarer that he travels the world -- but while in search of the fruit, and because their producers thought it would make for good entertainment, they were allowed to travel the world.

Things were taking a little pause for a while, though; right now, they were currently in Canada. Toronto, Canada, to be exact; and everything felt so wildly different than what he was used to. The buildings were tall, the streets much wider than the relatively small roads back in Akatsuka alley; and there was so many things to do, and sights to see! Honestly, it was a bit overwhelming.

Naturally, the first place Osomatsu wanted to hit up was a local bar, though. Not even two hours into arriving, and even with it getting dark soon, he'd dragged all six brothers out on the town, much to their dismay. Not many of them actually wanted to be here ( besides Osomatsu, that is ), but they couldn't deny that having drink did usually help them loosen up. They could always tackle sightseeing and searching around for that fruit tomorrow -- but after such a long flight, they deserved a little break! So sayeth Osomatsu, anyways.

Karamatsu, though -- he didn't really feel like drinking that much, nor getting buzzed. He didn't trust himself not to go overboard, even if he did have a higher-than-average tolerance for alcohol; swirling his wine glass, only sipping it every now and then, he'd strayed away from his group of brothers and towards the wall of the bar. It was a little out of the way of most of the others here, far enough from how rowdy his brothers were getting, and enough to see almost the whole bar and it's dark mahogany booths. This place was bustling, and honestly -- with all the racket, and the amount of people, it was probably better he strayed away from the group of his brothers anyways.

He CERTAINLY doesn't want to be there when Ichimatsu inevitably snaps. Why, looking at him now, he can already see him doing his best to shrink into the corner of the very booth they'd been sitting at, radiating such a terrifying energy that even from across the bar it made Karamatsu's skin crawl a little. Eehhhhmmm. Better focus on something else!

He shakes his head, lips a little curled back; and to cover up any uncertainty he'd been feeling, he settled for trying to be aloof and cool. Pushing up the sunglasses on his nose that definitely weren't needed in a bar as dimly lit as this one, observing all that passed him... yeah, that's Karamatsu's thing, alright. People watching was something he did a lot anyhow, and he'd gotten pretty good at being subtle about it, too. The triangular shades hid his eyes as he gazed to and fro, fro and to .... kind of doing nothing but keeping an obnoxious playboy smirk on his face as he took a sip of his wine every now and again, and preened his hair and leather jacket.

After awhile of uselessly trying to look cool, and balancing watching everyone with pretending he wasn't even looking at anyone at all, though ... one guy caught his attention. Walking into the bar with a couple friends, he'd noticed -- part of him instantly felt like it died when he saw the others walking in with him and chatting away. But, something about his black hair and his cute little sweater just captivated Karamatsu; he looked... very cute.

Despite his attempt to seem cool, the truth was that to approach the guy was pretty nerve-wracking when he was surrounded by friends -- so he instead waited for an opportunity for the people to stop hovering around that guy like buzzards. The moment he was certain he'd be able to get a good few words in, he'd made his way over -- but with every step, he looked stiff, and awkward. A bizarre walk, and everything about him seemed to be on edge; this was not something that went missed by his brothers when he passed their table, their obnoxious loudness screeching to a near halt once one pointed out how weird Karamatsu was acting.

He could feel their eyes on him. He KNEW they were watching him like a hawk. But, he couldn't chicken out now ... ! So, doing his best to take deep breaths and approach Wallace, he let that burnt on smarmy grin of his settle in. Walking right up to the open bar seat beside him, he'd knocked on the bar's countertop twice to get the guy's attention. Then, he'd turned around, cool as a cucumber, and tilted his sunglasses down just enough that Wallace could get a peek of his reddish brown eyes.

"Heeey there, gorgeous. What's a pretty boy like you doing all alone in a place like this?" His head tilted to the side, actively deepening his already deep voice. It was a little bit of overkill, and with his sparkly pants and his tanktop with his own face on it, well... it's pretty clear that he's a Lot. He's really hoping that for once a person -- this person -- indulges him in his shitty flirting, though. He's got to look cool, this guy has got to know how cool he is! Because he's cool-matsu! The coolest of the brothers no matter what they say! He can DO this!! With a confident snap of his fingers, and a little leaning over into Wallace's space, he continued.

"How about I buy you a drink, and you and I can chat a little more? Heh. But only one. Money's a little tight on my budget right now."

... Ok. Maybe he's doomed actually. What kind of person thinks revealing THAT would make him look cool? And WHY does he look so smug about it?!

Aww~ I knew you two got along 💜

Although, that's only when Ichimatsu is drunk enough to be friendly with Karamatsu...

sober Ichimatsu though...not so much.

I can't even tell if Ichimatsu is smiling in this last photo or not.

(Btw, Karamatsu seems just a bit suspicious whenever Ichimatsu is being close or nice to him XDD. Maybe Karamatsu's just too used to being the one who approaches Ichimatsu first and not the other way around.)

(Atleast, even though Karamatsu is suspicious, he still accepts Ichimatsu's offerings it seems. A glass of water and a piece of gyoza won't kill him... right?)

Ok, so Imagine catching Karamatsu playing with your bike and he pretends it's his to show off to you. You're heading out to your motorcycle, helmet tucked away under your arm, and as you step outside, you see Karamatsu running his hand up the fuel tank and resting it at the throttle. You've seen him around town a few times before and have had fewer interactions, but you find it amusing to see him so interested in your bike. You clear your throat and he jumps, spinning around in surprise. “That's a nice bike,” You say matter-of-factly. He quickly rights himself and flicks out his sunglasses, placing them on before leaning against the motorcycle. “Heh, I see you've taken notice of my ride. It takes a true renegade to handle this wild stallion, and what's an outlaw without his steel horse.” He gives you a smirk and you have to hold back a snort at his obliviousness. “Ya, that Milwaukee 8 does make her pretty wild. But, y'know, it's kinda dangerous to drive around without one of these." You show off your helmet as you pull it out from under your arm. Karamatsu immediately stiffens up, the pieces clicking together in his head as he realizes the situation. “Oh, and you're gonna need keys if you want to get anywhere.” A key ring twirls around your finger, and Karamatsu takes a few stuttering steps back as you approach your bike to mount it. When you're comfortably seated, you look back up to see that Karamatsu’s glasses have slipped down the bridge of his nose and his mouth is left open in stunned silence. Before you go to place your helmet over your head, you give him a smile, offering, “If you ever want a ride, I'd be happy to show you the reins sometime~” And with that, you slide your helmet into place, turn the ignition on, and take off down the street. At this point, Karamatsu's jaw has snapped shut, his cheeks stained pink, and he's left wondering how soon he can take you up on that offer. Ok that's all thank you!!! (⁠≧w≦⁠)💕

Ohhhhh my god, not him getting caught leaning on a bike that's not his! 😭 Oh Karamatsu, poor sweet man, you would do something so silly. This was really cute, darling! Thank you for sharing! (Also have you considered posting more fanfic in general? 😊)
