this is my headcanon
I've had so many terumob thoughts lately. I have had this story in my head for over a year and part of me wants to sit down and blast it out and the other is just not quite sure how to start it yet.
But i have been noodling on the not great Terumob moments. The arguments, the struggles, the "Teru still slips into worship phases" that causes tension and discomfort.
The moving in together moments that are no so pretty.
Teru who has lived alone for most of his formative years is suddenly living again with another person.
Shigeo who still struggles to be his whole self (because he will always have ups and downs) who doesn't always read the room and misunderstands queues from Teru. No fault of his own. But Teru gets frustrated and annoyed. Because that's just how humans are. We get upset at the ones we love sometimes over things that we love them for.
Of Shigeo leaving the dishes uncleaned because he just didn't notice.
Of Teru staying out late and not telling Shigeo because he never had to tell someone where he was because no one ever cared. And Shigeo feeling hurt.
Of Shigeo getting frustrated over small things and making the whole apartment shake. And Teru loves him for being himself but he also has a massive headache from making poor choices the day before and now is upset.
Of Teru doing everything because he has ALWAYS done everything and not communicating what he wants.
Teru not understanding the unsaid family relationship Shiego has with his parents. The things no one says but they all do that he, in all his observance, can't always figure out.
I'm rambling
But I just love exploring their relationship as adults. I want more of this. I need to write this. One day one day
After I write the like, 10 other things I have in my WIPs
WHAT IF THEY ALL HAD TAILS?? If they didn’t have to go one right after another of course…
Wayne’s is like something between larvas tail and Old W’s tail. My best boring idea for Soms was to give her fluffy dark tail that maybe repeats her antennas shape too or something (not visible here). Deds is like a lizard to me so their tail is lizard-like + armored. And world’s best grandpa has weaponised fish tail that could even kill.
I really liked how this one turned out, so I'll indulge myself in some rambling hehe
First of all, I was thinking about making a normal cake, but Teru seems to deserve more than JUST a cake... Then I had the BRILLIANT idea of making a Swiss roll, which is still a great dessert but stands out for the occasion (birthday, I mean) !
So for more details on this sweet, it has chocolate dough, the filling (orange part) It's filled with passion fruit, it's citrusy but sweet, and the little pieces of fruit in the middle are mango !! Let's say that the whipped cream and cherry on top were Teruki's own whim, but come on, he deserves it !!!
☆ Day 7 : birthday or free day
THANK YOU SO MUCH @hanazawaforevaaaaaa For hosting Teruki week this year, all the themes were amazing and it was great to have participated ^^ (even with difficulty)
Simpler version and prompt list :
thinkin about my shou and mob friendship headcanons again
Thinking about how "You really are amazing!" from Teru to Mob in the broccoli fight is about disconnect. About Mob succeeding where Teru failed (giving Teru yet another reason to idolize him). He views Mob as incorruptible, so there will always be an uncrossable distance between them.
But then "You really are amazing" from Dimple to Mob at the end of divine tree is about connection! It's about understanding! He gets Mob more in that scene than he ever has before bc his godly powers gave them a shared experience. He knows Mob is fallable and as a result knows how hard he's working not to fail, and Dimple's desire to emulate that work for Mob's sake gives the scene such a gentle intimacy.
The admiration isn't the problem. The problem is that at this point Teru sees Mob as a deific figure, while Dimple sees Mob as a friend.
mob psycho feels so beautifully queer to me. like i know it wasn't really written that way but i find the dynamic in fandom between gay adults helping raise gay kids to be so comforting. maybe it's just because i have barely had any experiences with older queer people, but seeing it in media always has me mesmerized. i finished watching dungeon meshi a while ago but what really stood out to me is the pure representation of care between everyone involved. it doesn't mean that there isn't conflict, but that all of the characters have specific and interesting reasons for why their dynamic works and how they care for each other. i feel like that same sentiment is carried by mob psycho and i love it sm.
Teruki week day 2!

Inspired by the feel of some of my favorite movies, where dumb things can happen for the sake of cool cinematography
