few years ago, I've had an idea of gods!AU for mdtb.

gods have been forgotten because of technological progress, so kitsune god Tobirama is forced to cooperate with rogue demon Madara.

*Slides on in* Got any Naga Shiggy or Dabi headcanons to share? Can be romantic or platonic, give me them sneks.

Yan!Naga Shiggy HCs

Note: I do write for Yandere!Monsters, Yandere!Angels, Yandere!Demons, etc. really any supernatural being as long as it has yandere behavior.

Tag List: @issamomma @repostingmyfavs @chickennugnugnug

Warnings: Yandere themes, SFW, kidnapping, Yan!Naga Shiggy, talk of snake biology (including venom), threats of eating Reader

P.S: Hey, Pales! I love nagas so much! Thank you for this request!!! I’m going to do two separate ones and tag you in the Dabi one because I don’t want to make this post too long, but I still really want to do the Dabi one. 🖤🤘

Master List

—————————————————————————

He would have killed anyone else who stumbled into his cave, who trespassed on his turf. However, there’s just something about the innocence behind those wide eyes that has him second guessing whether he should off you or not.

The way you fumble to step back, yet still keeping your orbs fixed on him, it honestly amuses him. He doesn’t even remember the last time he laughed so genuinely.

He decides that he will not kill you. He can’t just let you go either. No, he decides he will keep you and make you his mate.

He’s good at playing the long game. You know how he loves his games. He knows it’s necessary when it comes to you. He’s quite the passionate snake, taking the mantra “she will learn to love me” to heart.

It’s understandable, really. He has kept you from your village, what you’ve known for all of your life. Now, he has thrust upon you a new way of living.

Based on what we see of him in MHA, he is very caring and looks out for his people, for those who work for him, for those who put their lives on the line for his cause. I can’t help but think he’d do the same for you.

He loves you so much and sees you as the woman of his dreams. He now knows why he’s been so bitter in the past. It’s because he hasn’t had you in his life until now.

Shiggy is BIG on cuddles. He wraps the end of his tail around your ankle, pulling you closer and closer to him until you’re plush against the softness of his underbelly. He coils himself around you, wrapping you up until you’re safely in his arms.

Another thing he is big on is providing for you. When he hunts, he puts a large boulder in front of the cave’s entrance. That way, he doesn’t have to worry about you leaving. Hunting is something he absolutely loves to do. He loves to see the full bellied, satisfied look in your eyes. He views feeding you as a special gift. He wouldn’t do it for just anyone. He only does it for you.

The Shigster is prone to fits of rage when things don’t exactly go his way. He threatens to eat you a lot. It always works because he’s so unpredictable that you don’t really know if he’ll do it or not. Either way, you just don’t want to make him angry and face whatever kind of punishment he has brewing in his mind.

Shiggy Shigs LOVES to play games with you, especially Find My Love. It’s a game where he lets you run far from the cave, giving you a pretty good amount of time as he closes his eyes, crosses his arms, and lets you run off. He always ends up finding you, using his tongue to sniff you out as well as his acute nose. This way, you get to release some steam and touch grass while he gets to show you how much he loves you by tracking you down and tackling you. 🫠

I imagine Yan!Naga Shigaraki resembles a blue coral snake (or blue Malayan coral snake) with his bottom half from hips to tail.

The blue coral snake has blue scales mixed into the outer characteristics as well as sporting a red head, red tip, and red underside. The red reminds me of Shigaraki’s eyes. Though he wouldn’t have a red head, because his hair would still be blue and his face would still be the same color as in the show, I think the tip of his tail and underside would match the same red hue as his eyes. This particular snake also has what is known as “a unique kind of venom that most snakes don’t have” (Bouchard, Blue Coral Snakes Have Venom Unlike Any Other Snake). Because of Shigaraki’s unique and deadly quirk, I feel this is the most befitting characteristic for him. Not only is the venom lethal, it’s fast acting just like his quirk.

Pictures here so you can get a better image of what the blue coral snake looks like:

I’m so sorry I’m such a biology nerd. I didn’t mean to turn this into a fucking essay on snakes.

We have a new yōkai flying in! It's the Yatagarasu! The three-legged crow is an important figure Japanese mythology and being a symbol of the sun and a servant of the sun goddess, Amaterasu. Each of its legs represent a virtue of the gods. If you manage to catch this rare yōkai, you'll get its special blessing of the three pronged attack!

夜更かしの雪遊び -afterdark snowfun-

« when night falls on the city, dreamshades who had been quietly watching over us during the day, go outside to play. what could be better than having a snowball fight or building a snowman for the mischievous little dreamshade on a neon-lit snowy night?! on the other side, warmth and homely atmosphere loving ones prefer to sit in a cafe with a cup of hot cocoa. meanwhile, busy at work dreamshades run errands, watching the nightlife from the rooftops and power lines »

Yuu is most easily comparable to a horse or a unicorn haha yuunicorn, but something about her really reminds me of a giraffe, so here's a hastily-made diagram to show what I mean. 🦒 Other points I couldn't fit on the chart are Yuu's height (Kei says she's tall enough to stand out in a crowd) and long eyelashes.

#''kirin'' is the japanese word for ''giraffe'' as well as the name of a unicorn-like mythical creature #so yuu's singular horn still works!#magia record #yumeno yuusa #giraffe #the magireco animal motif zoo continues to grow

Art from 2018! (OMg that's 5 years ago already :/)

Here's a Kingdom Hearts AU where Roxas is a lonely, shy, nature-loving quiet kid who goes on long adventures into an enchanted forest. On one of these escapades, he meets a couple of kirins, Xion and Axel, and they get up to all sorts of danger and shenanigans.

Our next topic..... Kitsunes

In early Japan, there was a deity named Inari that created intelligent foxes that he let roam the earth. Each one had a unique and specific title that was tied to the earth in some way, shape, or form. There was a sound, thunder, forest, mountain, ocean, river, earth, wind, fire, spirit, celestial, and dark kitsune. The only reason why they are so powerful is because of their connection to the Deity, who lived to trick people himself or send his pets to do it for him. Another reason why their so powerful is because of their tails. The more they have, the more powerful they are. The limit is 9 btw. Lastly, whenever they go into a human body and become one with you like every other spirit, you'll have the ability to use some of their elemental abilities. No, you can't use their abilities to become aang, but you can manipulate them to a certain extent. Moving wind with a thought, spreading fires that have already started, etc.

Warning: The majority of them ARE tricksters. So if you wish to summon one, protect yourself at all times.

Another creatuanary creechur - a kitsune. According to Japanese folklore, all foxes over a certain age are capable of transforming into humans. Their tails and fur are difficult to hide, however. They have between 1 and 9 tails, depending on their age and wisdom.
