so I go to animation school now
hiiiii! im not sure if your requests are open at this time but, can i request how it would be like when you go camping or shopping with michael? 😭😭 i just thought it was a cute idea <3
Hey! Requests should be closed but I have no self control anymore so I will write this lol (Crack HC'S tbh. I needed a good laugh)
Includes all three versions and both scenarios!
Not proof read.
-
SHOPPING
❥ OG Michael strongly dislikes it. The only thing stopping him from hating it is you. Since you enjoy it, and more specifically when he tags along, he can tough it out but he will silently complain the entire time. He's not too insecure but hates not wearing that damn mask.. and he's well known at this point in such a small town so.. yeah, he's going to go without it for an hour or two.
❥ He has no fucking money. It really clicks when you sigh at price tags and put something back, picking the cheaper option. Michael is slightly annoyed by this fact. He wants to spoil you without words and maybe money is the way to go-- unfortunately he's not going to be able to do that. So he drops the sour attitude to make it a better experience for you.
Bonus: Michael wants candy. Ice cream. Chocolate milk. And maybe some drinks. He will pay you back with rare obedience and affection later. (And if anyone even looks at you weirdly, they are on his list faster than you can blink)
CAMPING
❥ One word.. why? Michael lives in his abandoned home but like.. outside? Really? Whatever. Nature never bothered him. In fact, if you're really dedicated to camping, leave the hunting for food to him. He's always eager to stab someone or something, so if some animals are around that you're willing to eat then yeah. He can do that. Tries to gut them but does it very wrongly. At least he's trying, right?
❥ Doesn't sleep too well outside. Not because he's scared of bugs or uncomfortable-- this man can sleep anywhere at this point, he's just very protective over you. You'll never have to worry about being bitten by some bug.. when you're sleeping. Michael will hold out whatever he caught and lowkey chase you around with it when you guys are awake during the day. He finds it hilarious. Does he laugh? Nah. You can hear his breathy responses though so maybe that counts.
Bonus: He actually hates beetles. The ones that fly. He never felt his soul leave his body like that before.
SHOPPING
❥ Peepaw Myers is the definition of sugar daddy.. without the money. I mean technically he can steal cards and cash from victims but he doesn't do that often. On the times he does-- it's always for you. Does he like shopping? Fuck no. He does it for you. Although there are moments where he finds himself liking the domestic feel of it all, watching you pick things out that you like. Tbh you might be able to convince him to look into some new shirts and sweats for casual wear at home. And he gives you stuff he thinks you'll like, he's trying to tell you to buy it. Because he said so. You'll look great in this-- what do you mean it looks ridiculously hideous? Okay. Okay. Yeah, he was being sarcastic and held out the most fucked up outfit. At least you laughed. That's a win in his book.
❥ Protective. Won't leave your side for a split second. Glares at people walking by a little too close. Gets pissed off when someone you know is there and y'all start talking. He hates it. This was supposed to be some quality time. Michael really doesn't like people. It only gets worse with age.
CAMPING
❥ Sure. Okay.. Michael ain't judging. Or excited about it. He thinks his home is perfectly fine but if you wanna go camping then he will tag along without hesitation. Peepaw might actually like the peacefulness of it all. As much as he hates being away from his hometown, he cannot deny the fact that those voices are quieter the farther away he is.
❥ Not a fan of the weather if it's too hot. Sweats alot under that damn mask. He prefers camping in the fall.. also perfect to cuddle you, to keep you warm. Totally not an excuse he likes to use all the time.
SHOPPING
❥ RZ! Michael is the more chill one about this. He can hide his face pretty well with his hair alone so it isn't too bad. Plus he likes feeling involved in your daily activities. He also wants to protect you so you might clash a few times with how close he is lol
❥ He's genuinely happy in the moment and likes looking at clothes together. He shows you things that he thinks you'll look good in, and shyly shows you stuff he wants to try wearing. Let him know it's good he's exploring what he likes through clothes even though it may sound silly or not that important.
CAMPING
❥ Wherever you go, he's right there. Doesn't matter if you wanna move somewhere where it snows all the time or travel the world without having any real destination. Michael will go with you and be somewhat homesick but not enough to wanna go back or say no to leaving.
❥ Would probably take over some abandoned cabin and make a second home out of it with you. It'll be a safe place for both of you. He tends to open up a little more too.

I'm aware I didn't add bonus hc for peepaw & rz and I'm sorry! Idk why my brain froze and I couldn't think of anything else so OG got some extra love here lol
Pines pines pines
this tiny hop
All Rui wanted was to fill that void of not having a family, he wanted that bond that he believed he hadn't gotten with his first family and that's just what he had created for himself. With the assistance of Master Muzan's blood, he was more then capable of bringing forth his vision of a family, his family. Albeit, his family wasn't necessarily "real" but that didn't hinder Rui from going along with his own delusions. After all, if he wanted a family then that's just what he was going to get, no matter how many disappointing, failing 'family members' he had to go through to achieve his image.
He is going to get his perfect family at any and all costs.
Rui would be the one to bring you into the family, of course he would, this is his family after all. He's the one who will decide whether you're fit for your role in being part of the family, critiquing anything and everything you do, no matter how small or minimal it maybe. He'll watch you closely, having the other family members watch you as well.
Maybe you're a demon who had run off to the mountain to flee from the Demon Slayer Corps or maybe you're a demon slayer who had been sent to take out whatever demon had been inhabiting the mountain, not knowing what you would be in for. Maybe you had gotten in the way of one of your comrades to protect them and that snapped something in Rui. Or you could be just some poor soul who wandered into their territory, how foolish of you (Imagine the Spider family with a human new addition, someone so much weaker and vulnerable compared to the rest of them.). It doesn't really matter how you came to be on the mountain, in their territory, watching you're every move Rui sees just how well you'd be as part of his family, deciding your fate then and there.
You'll be forced to be the closest to Rui, he'll keep you by his side if he has to to ensure that you two will be bonded. He will expect you to fulfill your role as whatever he gives you, holding high expectations not only for you but everyone who becomes part of the family. You won't be exempt from consequences and or punishments if you're deserving of them, but the least Rui will make an exception for is that he'll never kill you.
You'll surely, without a doubt, give into the family fantasy. At first, you'll just be playing house to save yourself from punishment or overall death, but you'll gradually fall into your role as part of the family, probably lying to yourself to the point of believing that they really are your family.
Rui, along with the rest of the family would probably prefer someone who is naive and kind, someone who can be easily manipulated and controlled by them. Having someone full of warmth and kindness would be a complete change compared to the cold and loneliness they all are subjected to, even within the family.
Rui can be rather possessive and territorial of you, even with the other family members, but they've learned their places by now. Or at least some of them have. The others will just have to be taught a lesson until it's carved into their memory that your time is mostly Rui's. He sees the other family members as disposable compared to you, you're the one that really means something to him, especially given his image of family.
He sees you as family and feels a real bond with you, unlike the 'fillers' that are your guys' other family members. Rui has no problem getting rid of them and just having it be the two of you but that would hurt you, wouldn't it? After all, you have grown to see them as family, how could you just let Rui take them away like that?
You'll be the only one who can manage to keep Rui at bay with his outbursts and bashing out at the others. You're able to save them from their inevitable dates, even just for a time, but you can't be their savior all the time. You do have a role to fulfill as as part of the family now, and Rui will remind you of that time after time.
Rui will have his soft moments, only with you though. The longer you prove your worth, filling your role and forming a real bond with him, he'll be more likely to allow himself to feel vulnerable with you. Something he didn't know he was capable of anymore. You'll be able to bring out the real Rui as long as you're willing to try.
Something that would really win Rui over is if you ever tried to protect him, he is the most powerful out of the family, so their isn't really any need for the others to protect him, but you going out of your way to do so would make Rui obsess over you all the more. He'll get emotional, especially if you got hurt as a result of protecting him.
Speaking of which, if you ever got hurt, whether from protecting him or by being attacked in general, Rui would lose his shit. He'll slaughter, shred, and do whatever he can to kill the person who did anything to you, even if it was another family member. He's not going to allow for anyone to hurt his family, especially you.
The other family members don't really have any of their own opinions about you, all that matters is that you fill your role, falling into place with the family. It won't take them until much later on, after playing house for awhile, that they'll really start to grow their own attachments to you.
Father is just as delusional as Rui, he fills his role as father just as he should and he expects everyone to do the same with their own roles. He is extremely protective of his family, willing to do just about anything for them. Whether that's due to his genuine care for his 'family' or just for his survival, it doesn't matter, as long as he fills his role at the end of the day.
Despite his investment towards his family, his children, you'll surely become his favorite. He'll gradually grow attached to you, being one of the first ones to not only fall along into the obsession of you, but to also be solely bonded to you, excluding Rui.
Father would have a such soft spot for you, you're presence alone is enough to calm him down. He doesn't want you seeing him lash out, especially towards Mother, he doesn't want you to be scared of him. He wants you to see him as a good father, someone you can count on for protection and providing. He never wants you to fear him, unlike anyone else.
He'll often check on you when he's doing his rounds, patrolling the mountain. He likes to check in and see if you're safe and well. You're probably a lot weaker compared to everyone else and he feels the need to protect you even more because of it, they all do.
Father can have his softer moments, not only with you but everyone else too, it only took you being brought into the family for there to be changes like that. He'll often give you and the children piggyback rides, or spiderback rides?, all around the mountain. You may even be able to get Rui to indulge in them too.
He also likes to play with your hair, something he only started doing when you came around, playing with with everyone's hair. He'll also give headpats or hair ruffles, you'll get loads of them.
You'll be able to get him to be much more gentle with Mother, too. Especially if you voice how much it hurts to see Mother crying and hurting, he'll do anything for you.
If anything ever happened to you, along with the rest of the family but mostly you, Father would go berserk. There's nothing that would stop his from destroying the people or demons who hurt you in any way. None of the family stand by and allow that to happen, ever.
Mother would be apprehensive and weary of being too close with you given Rui and Father's own growing, festering attachments towards you. She's already been punished enough, she doesn't want to upset either of them any more then she already has, especially concerning you.
Showing any kind of kindness and gentleness to her would really draw her in. Everyone in the family can be so cruel and cold, but you're showing her something she hasn't had in a long time if at all. She'll bask in whatever warmth and affection you'll gift her with. It won't take her long to fall alongside Rui and Father in their obsession of you.
She'll learn to fill her role as mother by watching you and taking on some of your behavior and tendencies, which will earn her better resignation among the family, especially with Rui.
Mother would love to show you her dolls, performing little shows for you and the rest of the family. She also loves having you sit with her, sharing her rock and looking at the moon and the stars.
She's the softest out of the family, picking up on your warmth and affection, she'll gladly return it all tenfold. Mother really loves to hold you close, basking in your very existence, it really makes here feel so warm and...dare she say, "happy". You make her so happy and free, feelings she hasn't felt for a long time.
Mother loves to do your hair, no matter how long or short it may be, she loves messing with it in any and all ways.
You're her baby, her precious baby, and she will uphold her role as Mother just for you. She doesn't want you having another mother, no one could possibly take her place just like no one could possible replace you. She'll do her damndest to keep this family together, for you.
If anything ever happened to you, Mother would become enraged, she'll be heartbroken but she's going to lash out first. Once everything is said and done she'll be by your side once more, like any mother.
If you ever died, Mother would be the first to join you. She'll gladly walk out into the warm sunlight just to be with her baby again, the two of you being free together at least.
All the family members would eventually do the same, hoping to maybe be a family again in the afterlife, even if it is in Hell. Maybe you'll all even be returned into the same family, being together once again.
(Whenever I see this dude, i just fucking lose it laughing. I don't know why.)
Brother is an odd one, he without a doubt likes the violence and chaos that was the original family before you came along and that's how it still is. He doesn't much care for you or your role in the family, honestly he most likely wishes you'd never came along to begin with but there's no going against Rui when he sets his mind on something.
He's definitely a little teasing shit, he'll do whatever to get a rise out of you, one way or another. If you're scared of his spider minions then he'll use that against you, you'll be seeing them everywhere from now on. If you hate that he just pops out of nowhere then he'll be doing it more often. He's that shitty brother who just never let's up about anything.
Rui, Father, and Mother will all have talks with him but it won't do much, at least Mother and Father won't really get any result from him. Rui, on the other hand, sure will. Brother will, at the very least, tone his teasing/cruel pranks down a smidge, but that's about all he'll do.
You may even thing that Brother hates you, but that couldn't be further from the truth. At first, he couldn't have cared less about you but the longer you're around and more fun he has with messing with you, the more he grows fond of you. Coming to realize that, in some twisted way, this is what a family is like, this is how siblings are with each other, at least to an extent.
He'll secretly adore his new little sibling but you're not getting a peep out of him about it, no one will ever get anything from him about it but they all know.
As vicious and cruel as Brother can be, he's much more terrifying and merciless when your safety is concerned or if he believessomeone is trying to take his place with you.
He won't tolerate anyone messing with his sibling unless he's the one doing so. Anyone who tries to so much as do anything to you will be poisoned immediately, turning into a spider and becoming yet another little minion of his. No one messes with his family, unless it's him, especially not some little humans from the Demon Slayer Corps.
Brother can have his much nicer moments, particularly after some of the meaner things he does to you, he'll send some of his little minions with gifts for you. Sometimes it's a flower he found, or something that one of the demon slayers or humans had on them that he thought you'd like. He'll never admit it but he does like to see you smile, at least from time to time.
Sister became part of the family solely to save herself from the Demon Slayer Crops, otherwise she wouldn't have been part of such a thing. She felt the need to pay her debt by filling her role as a sister and so that's what she did.
She felt rather threatened when Rui had brought you home, she didn't want you to replace her, even if the family wasn't good to beging with. She was necessarily mean to you but she would try to get something on you to get you in trouble with any of the other family members, maybe then she'd be a good sister/daughter if you were out of the picture. But no one ever budged when it came to you, hell, you didn't even budge whenever she asked you about running away or something of the sort. It was hopeless in the end.
It wasn't until you had come to her baring a gift, that she really started to look at you in a new light. You were really trying to fill your role but along the way you came to see these other beings, these people, as family. She was weary at first, not trusting you, but that changed soon enough.
She'd seen what happened to those who didn't fill their roles or were just disappointing in general and she didn't want any of that for you. She wanted you to thrive, she wanted to thrive with you. She knew that the others' loved you dearly but she still felt that she had to watch out for you, which was odd since she really only watched out for herself.
If you weren't spending most of your time with Rui then sister would have you to herself, at least until Mother or Father came to get you. Brother only coming when he wanted to see you squeal or shriek from whatever mean thing he had planned for you.
Sister would really start to take her role seriously once you're part of the family. She wants to be the best older sister, not only for Rui, but also for you. She wants to be something, someone, that you're proud of, that you're proud to call your sister. She wants to make you prouder than anything or anyone else.
You and Sister will often chase each other around the mountain, maybe even getting the rest of the family involved too, playing a fun game of tag. She would also accompany you and Father on your usual piggyback rides around the mountain too, each of you on either of his shoulders or holding onto each other while on his back.
Sister will eventually love you along with the rest of the family, falling into their shared obsession with their new family member. She'll be just as willing to do anything for you, like they all are willing to do.
The family would really come to feel like a true, genuine family once you've been brought in, filling your role as the strings that keep them all tied together as they should be, as a real family should be. Not letting them fall apart, not again.
Bless whatever poor soul may try to come between this family and their new addition, they'll surely be destroyed without so much as a blink.
i hope i drew them w/ justice ><
