A:What do you looking at, freak?
Okay so I know he's out Vat7k exclusive but he is in team radical so what are your Varian headcanons??
YAYYY VARIAN MY BELOVED
Used to love when it snowed because it meant he got to go sledding with his dad, but then he developed an intense fear/hatred of snow because of the events during queen for a day
First reaction was to not trust Nuru because of how much she reminds him of Rapunzel. Even though the two of them had mostly mended things at that point, there was still a part of him deep down that blamed Raps and expected Nuru to betray the rest of the team for her kingdom
Had to put up a sign declaring his lab an “anti-Eugene” zone due to how often Eugene just barges in without warning. When it didn’t work, Varian changed it to say “Anti-Horace” just to piss him off
Keira and Catalina were his first friends that were actually around his age
Calls Hugo “pretty boy” as an insult (backfires cuz Hugo thinks they’re flirting)
Thrives in warm/hot weather but the moment the temperature drops, Varian refuses to go outside and wears thick clothing until it’s spring/summer again
He’s a snob about produce due to his dad being a farmer, and it’s a nightmare to go food shopping with him. What’s supposed to take an hour at most turns into an entire afternoon wasted at the market because the tomatoes are too soft or the apples aren’t the right color or the celery doesn’t snap right. Hugo, who grew up eating whatever he could get his hands on, has to physically restrain himself from strangling Varian
He had freckles everywhere
Exchanges letters with Rapunzel throughout his journey as a way of mending their relationship further (they both still feel super guilty about everything that happened and blame themselves) so no matter how far Varian travels, he’ll always have someone from home to guide him
Doodles Team Radical in the margins of his journal when he’s bored (caught himself making a very detailed sketch of Hugo’s face and was shamed of himself for days)
Inconsistent sleep schedule due to nightmares, which often leads to him sitting outside by thr campfire late at night. Because of this, he and Hugo are alone together a lot of the time because Hugo is usually the last of the team to go to bed
Insane sweet tooth, genuinely can’t get through the day without consuming something sweet
First to see Hugo with his hair down and was a flustered mess about it for hours after
Hugo was the first one he told about his past as the Alchemist
Has the Saporian emblem on his body somewhere (either tattooed or branded idk) because everyone in that group has it as a way to pledge their loyalty
Slight country accent that surfaces only when he’s really fired up (you can pry this hc from my cold dead hands cuz I think it’s so funny that he becomes a cowboy when he’s angry)
“Accidentally” leaves too traps in the castle halls where he knows Nigel and/or Frederick will be walking
Forgets to eat all the time. People will remind him, but he’ll just wave it off and forget until someone shoves a ham sandwich in his face and threatens to reorganize his beaker drawer
Despises coffee and makes fun of Eugene for drinking an “old man” drink, but he will drink it if he’s pulling an all nighter and is desperate for something to keep him awake
Realized he was bisexual at some point during the journey. I feel like he wouldn’t care about romance after becoming royal engineer and getting over his crush on Cassandra, so it wouldn’t really occur to him that he likes both guys and girls until he’s on the road with too much time to think
Tries to emulate his dad when taking charge of the group cuz even away from home, he looks up to his dad
Wrist scars from the handcuffs during his prison era, whether they’re prominent or barely visible
Left-handed. Why? I dunno, it just makes sense to me
Hot chocolate snob. He’ll drink almost all kinds of hot chocolate, but he has a preference for the high quality stuff they keep in the castle and can tell the difference between different kinds (judges people who make it with water instead of milk)
When he’s in a particularly sour mood, he’ll shut off all the hot water in Corona just to be petty (usually does it when Frederick pisses him off)
Yong called him his brother once and he didn’t stop crying for an hour
Makes fun of Hugo for not knowing how to swim until Varian has to save him from drowning in the water trial
Gets offended when people call Ruddiger fat or say he’s overweight (he’s basically a bowling ball that waddles around the castle but Varian isn’t ready for that conversation yet)
Refuses to let people take care of him when he’s sick because they “have better things to do”
Hugo is the only one he will voluntarily share a lab space with. Anyone else and he’d sooner throw himself out a window
I have so much more but this is definitely long enough jansosiwbsoishwnsksoaisj I love him
Thank you for the ask <333
Some character design/ costume concept art for a fan project me and @banannerbread dreamed up. It was a little spinoff comic about Varian continuing his adventures in alchemy through the seven kingdoms in order to learn the seven alchemical laws and attain forbidden knowledges. New characters we wanted to play with were Varian’s mom, who design-wise was a in flux, since we only had one reference image to go off of…but we really wanted to match her aesthetic to Varian/ that of a field researcher. We always imagined her as being a lot like Varian! Tried to develop some motifs between the other characters (L-R: Hugo, Donella, and Donella’s muscle-man) to make them look like the evil pack they were. Hugo was a sneaky artificer who conned the wealthy and worked for Donella: Varian’s mother’s former research partner. We also had Yong and Princess Nuru- who were some new friends that Varian would meet on his journey! And of course, Prometheus, a farm donkey Quirin gifted to Varian before he left Corona. (Not quite a Maximus…but, hey!)
So APERENTLY this isn't a "popular" headcannon (which left me feeling hella bamboozled) so @uhjamszone, here's your promised essay (took more than ten minutes but wtv, sry lol)
SoOoOoOoOo, Hugo grew up on the streets where food was scarce and what people like him could get was usually from the dumpster or worse. So Hugo grows up not being picky, eating whatever whenever just to survive, but he still tries to make it decent (he tried to sleep in the back allys of restaurants and stealing from markets in the summer and stuff) so he learns to try different food combinations.
Then, when he gets taken in by Donella, since she is not only a badass crime boss but the Royal Engineer (#queen) he has access to real food now (he'd still have rations like all of Donnie's lackeys but it's still wayyyyyyyy better than before) and since he'd have to travel a lot for missions, he'd get pretty good at actual cooking (and he'd hide a little travel skillet in his room so he could cook) and since he has such a strong stomach from years of such shitty food, his dumpster-fire first tries don't phase him so he can just keep getting better at his craft.
On the trials, Nuru or Varian are usually the ones to make meals (neither of them trust Hugo not to do something stupid and prank their food) but all they can make is shit like ham sandwiches and baked potatoes and eggs on a good day or something all the time (Hugo dosnt love it but he dosnt care, food is food) but then, one day when they're out getting supplies or stm Yong is super hungry and asked Hugo to make something with him and Hugo just casually whips up the best meal they've had the entire journey so far and he's in charge of cooking from now on!
(Quick intermission to say that Olivia is his little chef just lime Remy. Yes she has her own little chefs hat. Yes she runs around grabbing all the spices and ingredients and stuff. Yes she does go up and pull on Hugo's hair and it dosnt do anything but piss her off. Annnnnnnnnnd Yes she does act all bossy and insist her idea is better despite not having a sense of smell or taste because she is a robot <3)
But later on, post-betrayl when he moves in with Varian at the castle and stuff. He gets super overwhelmed, he hates it there, he hates himself for hating it there, he dosnt deserve this, he dosnt belong. He dosnt know how to use all this fancy silverware and weird food that's super small and fancy and one of the things he lived most is turning against him, so he ends up skipping a lot of dinners. Varian gets concerned but he's sees how Hugo will eat his basic sandwiches and stuff, so they end up having a lot of cooking dates and skipping the fancy dinners in favor of Mac & Cheese in the library. And, another hc is that he ends up becoming good friends with Lance as they cook together (I hc he's a good cook too<3) and Lance teaches him how to make those fancy royal foods and Hugo ends up making them WAY better.
So, to wrap things up. He likes cooking, it's one of his love languages, he can pick up on new recapies pretty quickly but prefers to just wing it, despite being a great cook he's a shitty baker so dessert is always Varians job and feel free to add to this.
I'VE DONE MY PART, MAKE THIS A PIPULAR HEDCANNON NOW PLS!!!!

Chapter 1 "Without You"
Crowley's apartment in London was *the worst* place on earth at night. A lot of *a lot of drugs*, alcohol, cigarettes and hookah. *He was having fun to the fullest*, one could have thought, but no. Crowley was bad, insanely bad. His sweet, sunny, dear angel left him for the sake of heaven. The snake could survive everything from Aziraphel, after their kiss: a blow, screams, swearing, perhaps an angel would not let him get to the threshold for the next two centuries. All, *but not this*. He exchanged the redhead for heaven, went with Metatron. For God's sake...satans...and anyone! He's an idiot! - with such thoughts the fallen one drank another bottle. Crowley stopped taking care of himself a long time ago and hadn't washed for almost four months, and there was no question of anything else. His hair has grown to an incredible length - almost 2 meters! The demon drowned his pain in alcohol and substances, falling into a terrible addiction. But before, he felt a kind of pity for such people...
The plants in the apartment have long since dried up and the leaves, once the greenest in London, and now yellowish-brown, lay near the pots. The corners are covered with cobwes and are teeming with all kinds of creatures. The blackness of the walls and furniture in the apartment put pressure on the psyche, like a hydraulic press on a can of cola. Mona Lisa's sketch, hanging in front of the hidden safe, seemed to be looking at Crowley with a mockery. It seemed that everything on this planet , in the Milky Way, was amused by the demon.
Unfortunately (and the horror of subsequent events), and Crowley's so heavily overloaded psyche could not stand it...

Глава 1 "Без тебя"
Квартирка Кроули в Лондоне , ночью была *худшим* местом на земле. Много *очень много наркотиков*, алкоголь, курево от сигарет и кальяна. *Он отрывался по полной*, можно было подумать, но нет. Кроули было плохо, безумно плохо. Его милый, солнечный, дорогой ангел бросил его, ради небес. Змий мог пережить все от Азирафеля, после их поцелуя: удара, криков, ругани, возможно ангел не подпускал бы его к порогу ближайшие два столетия. Все, *но не это*. Он променял рыжеволосого на небеса, пошёл с Метатроном. Ради Бога…сатаны…да кого угодно! Он идиот!- с такими мыслями падший выпивал очередную бутылку. Кроули давно перестал следить за собой и почти четыре месяца как не мылся, а о другом уж и не было речи. Его волосы отросли до невероятной длины- почти 2 метра! Демон топил свою боль в алкоголе и веществах, попав в страшную зависимость. А ведь раньше, он испытывал некое подобие жалости к таким людям...
Растения в квартире уже давно засохли и листья, когда-то самые зелёные в Лондоне, а теперь желтовато-коричневые, лежали около горшков. Углы покрылись паутиной, и кишат всякой живностью. Чернота стен и мебели в квартире давила на психику, как гидравлический пресс на банку колы. Набросок Мона Лизы, висящий перед скрытым сейфом, будто с насмешкой смотрел на Кроули. Казалось, все на этой планете, в млечном пути, потешалось над демоном.
К сожалению (и ужасу последующих событий), и так сильно перегруженная психика Кроули не выдержала…
My headcanon about Saint Peter in the Hellaverse: he has imposter syndrome! He still feels guilty about that time he denied knowing Jesus, and secretly thinks he does not belong in Heaven. Not sure if Jesus even exists in the Hazbin Hotel universe, but hey! Headcanons are just for fun. (Side note: the heavenly authorities won't let him have anything sharper than a pen due to The Ear Incident of 33 AD...)
