For the "top 5 anything" post; top five Jasper hcs!
Thank you for this ask! Here we go then!
He is insomniac. Because of that, he stays up late to work because he simply can't fall asleep. The years of stress don't help either.
2. Because he sleeps so little, he's not a morning person. He won't be fully awake if not for a warm bath and a sweet tea.
3. Because he works so late with for sole source of light candles, his eyes are very tired and he needs glasses. Not that he'll admit it any time soon.
4. He does a lot of work-out to compensate all the sugar he regurlay ingests. He's terrified to gain weigth and to look less appealing. However, his addiction to sugar makes it difficult to reduce his consumption. He usually reads or works on reports while training, as a way to save time.
5. He has an excellent memory that he trains as well. He also pays great attention to details, so he knows who he's talking to, even maids or soldiers/knights, and he knows details about them like birthday dates. He gets small gifts for the staff he appreciates, like a floral perfume for his appointed staff/maids.
Dqxi had the right idea. If you're gonna make a character in your story have their natural hair color being some kind of bright unnatural color, it should be the huge fighter man that's inarguably masc. Dqxi could've given the long, pretty lavender hair to any of the other main party members. They could've given it to Serena. Or Jade. But they didn't. They gave it to Hendrik. Absolutely unparalleled move.
Friendly reminder that my ask box is always open, especially if you wanna talk headcanons or request some!
5/6/25 WIP list to hold myself accountable
Favorite food headcanons
DQXI x Homestuck Classpects
Modern/Mundane HC Series
Vocaloid characters with DQXI classes, skill trees, etc
Perhaps a blub about hetalia or yokai watch if I’m feeling. Daring
Posts about my self insert characters (as well as an explanation of how I discern OC from self insert)
On that note
Erik
I cannot tell a lie he’s giving me caramel ribbon Frappuccino vibes. Or just an iced latte with nothing fancy.
If he were going for a hot drink I think he’d go for a white chocolate mocha.
I don’t think he’d be a huge coffee snob, or even a fan of coffee for that matter. It’s just a beverage. He gets nauseous if he drinks too much.
Veronica
They will not serve her coffee because she is a child. She is very mad about this.
I could see her ordering a few things— Definitely a strawberry crème Frappuccino, maybe a kiwi starfruit refresher?
She does enjoy coffee, and she asks Serena to order it for her. For some reason I see a sweet cream cold brew in her hands.
She has like, the best caffeine tolerance in the party behind Sylvando.
Serena
Tea enjoyer! Iced passion green tea lemonade girlie and you will not convince me otherwise. Very surprised that she enjoys tea iced and not hot.
Doesn’t hate coffee, quite likes it actually! But it makes her feel jittery if she drinks it too fast or on an empty stomach.
I could see her enjoying a mocha cookie crumble Frappuccino if she’s feeling daring.
Sylvando
He IS the pink drink and the pink drink is he. No one else in this world deserves it except for he himself. Gonna project a little and say he likes the blackberry sage refresher, too (because that’s my fav!)
Coffee does not affect him even a little bit. Could drink it like water. I think he’d have STRONG opinions about the sweet cream cold brew. I don’t know if these opinions are positive.
Would probably enjoy the most menu items out of the entire party. Macchiato, Frappuccino, lattes, Americano, I don’t think he’d really /hate/ any of it.
Jade
Not very much a coffee person at all, but damn. She was born for the iced brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso. It just feels right in my heart.
A pretty classic cappuccino would also satisfy her. If she’s feeling something sweet, I actually think she’d go for a hot chocolate.
Definitely a “coffee helps me wake up” type of person. Doesn’t need it to function, but it certainly helps.
Rab
I think he’s also a refresher enjoyer, specifically the blackberry sage. Also enjoys a good tea.
He’s definitely the most overwhelmed by the massive menus. Jade ends up ordering for him. Gets him a cinnamon latte. Later he goes back to the counter and orders an espresso macchiato.
Hendrik
Coffee gives him heartburn. He orders chocolate mocha. He drinks half of it and then has to stop.
My partner came up with this headcanon that coffee plants aren’t native to Heliodor. Like, there’s coffee in Gallopolis, Gondolia, Arboria, Phnom Non, almost everywhere except Heliodor. I’m considering this canon.
Jasper
Coffee also doesn’t always sit right with Jasper, he’s got a sensitive stomach imo. But he’s much a bigger coffee enjoyer than Hendrik.
Would rather kill himself than admit that he loves Frappuccino’s. He’s got such a sweet tooth and I’ll die on this hill.
Thinking about the cliche “what if [X] characters got transported into our world” and how that could relate to DQXI but like, I feel like something a lot of people fail to consider with this AU is that [X] characters’ currency may be functionally useless. Like if we’re taking the Luminary and Sylvando on a Starbucks side quest, that bedazzled pink tumbler is going on my credit card.
“Oh but they have gold pieces” and you think I’m letting those outside of my house?? In this economy?? Nah mf leave your important items purse on the kitchen counter.
Furthermore. Introducing them to cars. We are NOT walking to target. No horses. 2015 Subaru. Let’s hop on the LIRR. Leave the swords in the trunk or we are going to be forcefully removed from the Barnes and Noble.
This was an ask from @valeriewarrior137 but I accidentally posted it without fully answering and then deleted it 😭
Erik
He can guesstimate most measurements just by eyeballing them. Height, weight, distance, circumference. When you’re a thief, you’ve gotta know if your loot can follow you through the escape route.
Veronica
She’s an excellent climber, even with her shorter stature. She can scale trees, ledges, and even hop fences like nobody’s business.
Serena
She’s got a knack for learning new languages very quickly, and it helps out with how much traveling the party does. Her musical talents give her the ear for it!
Sylvando
With a stage presence like his? How could there ever be a talent the Great Sylvando hasn’t— it’s hunting. His father taught him. He can hit a target with a crooked crossbow from further away than any man should be able to.
Jade
She can forge someone’s signature to the point where it’s indiscernible. She’s never used this talent, despite how much Erik tries to convince her to
Rab
He can finish a sewing job with a good amount of competency! He taught himself how to when his daughter’s teddy bear ripped, and he was always there to help Jade out if she needed something hemmed!
Hendrik
He really enjoys gardening. He doesn’t get many opportunities to do it, but he’s read several books about botany, foraging, etc. and would love to keep his own plants one day
Jasper
He’s a very good singer! And he’s horribly embarrassed about it, surprising no one. It’s nothing professional, but it helps lift his mood when he’s feeling down
