(speedpaint)

Oh my gosh I love this, thank you so much lol

*stares deep into your soul* NJ headcanons please? Angst or fluff just anything

*stares right back into your very core with my autistic eyes*

But yes ofc you may have some NJ hc’s young child :)

NJ is strangely really good with hair. And that goes for literally every hair type. Unruly and ruined by bleach like Florida’s? Easy. Wavy and incredibly messy like Texas’s? No problem. Louisiana on the verge of tears cuz his curly ass mess of hair got tangled in the humidity of the summertime and he’s only hurting himself more by trying to brush it? No problemo, NJ will gently and delicately Dutch braid it.

NJ and Loui. Theres something between them. Idk what it is. But there’s something. Potential parental stuff perhaps. But something.

NJ can and will adopt any younger state that gives off "yeah I have parental issues" vibes

This man is a HUGE dog person :]

He has a Doberman, named Murrie, and a Boxer named Mar. He loves them and they love him.

I was just sitting in the snow for the past hour-ish, came back in about 20 mins ago. I would have stayed out longer if it wasn't for the fact that my other earbud died and I didn't want to check if the other was charged enough, and if my fingers hadn't started to get uber numb and my butt was totally soaked.

Would totally recommend BTW to sit in the snow like its a lawn chair, I was doing so with my legs bent and woah boy was it comfy. 10/10 I will do it again when I can!!

Your local Jersian is back, it is an actual winter wonderland outside soooo

SNOW!!!!!

Okay so, it snowed a few days ago and of course I was super stoked because snow, and I knew that more was on the horizon for Saturday.

So it’s Saturday. It’s the first day of Presidents Day Weekend, the day of the Flyers V. Devils Stadium game. It’s also the day I was meant to go ice skating again.

I’ve been going through what I call “Skate withdrawl” since it’s been almost a month since I last gone skating. I was finally able to get my poppy to bring me today, and yes I knew there would be snow but it went from a Winter Weathert Advisory to a Winter Weather Warning because it’s a full blown storm baybeeeee.

I’m sad that I’ll have to wait to go tomorrow BUT I am happy we got way more snow than predicted, so I guess I can’t be too sad.

Signed-

Your resident Snow Slut™️

No one requested this but I got distracted

Hear me out what if this was a ship

@nohappinessinthisworld Alright I finally did it, NJ headcanons. I had fun doing these

New Jersey-

Refuses to try Poutine, says that it’s just Disco Fries but worse

Suffers every summer, he can deal with the heat but he doesn’t like it

Never fully understood why murder was so bad until around the 90s when some good friends of his got murdered

He doesn’t like hurting the OG13 since he considers them apart of his family, so whenever he does it’s a complete tonal shift for about a week

He doesn’t actually smell all to bad, just like a normal guy, but he can make it worse however it only affects the states

He REALLY hates rain storms, whether it’s tropical or a hurricane or just a storm with lightning he HATES it, he’s actually gotten a lot better since the 2010s since before he would just have a panic attack the entire time (York helped a lot with this)

His hair gets frosted tips whenever there’s snow sticking in the state, if it’s a lot of snow his face will get way paler, his cheeks blueish and his freckles look like snowflakes

“Jersey if you stab Colorado with your skate blade again I’m tellin yer Ma” -Mass every single time there’s a hockey game between NJ and CO

Was inducted into a knitting club by his friend who worked at the library, all the old ladies in the club are very nice and have helped Jersey get as good at knitting as he is now

While he has had a lot of hobbies over the years, he only has a few active ones, such as knitting and cooking and garden/farm stuff (hockey doesn’t count because it’s a lifestyle not a hobby, his words)

Is not a fan of the Nintendo Switch, only owns one because what else is he going to do? Transfer games onto the DS illegally? (yes but that’s besides the point)

Oh he has horns and a tail alright, but he doesn’t have them always, he can just hide them and whatnot so most of the states don’t actually know that he does, only the OG13 know because oh boy did he have horrible control over it as a young child

Was very confused when he found out that the other states don’t have family’s, that they just spawned out of nowhere, in his mind it shouldn’t be possible but it is (“You can’t just CREATE mass like that, just because magic exists doesn’t mean you can just IGNORE SCIENCE!!!!”)

While he cooks a TON at the StateHouse, he actually tends to eat out when at home, support local diners oh and Wawa and QuickCheck

Was very obsessed with demon magic and stuff during the pandemic in the StateHouse, listen he was bored and curious, it was stupid but fun

New Jersey Jcfs request

I am so sorry I have no idea what your asking for, I will totally do whatever your asking for but I need to know what in gods name jcfs means

Hi, so I saw that you were doing requests so can you do California hcs? :D

(Not forced)

Hiii I'm so sorry that this took so long, I was kinda stumped and was doing other things BUT I did finally get around to it so HERE

California-

He has a lot of hobbies, such as hiking and making loom bracelets, if it exists it was probably a hobby of theirs

Has always been interested in how personifications/states came to be, most just appeared one day, some are related to each other or other countries, while a very small group (pretty much just the OG13 and Louisiana) are related to humans, it’s all very interesting and mildly terrifying to him

Trained marksman, owns two guns but rarely uses them unless their stressed, then it’s off to the shooting range (or ya know, he'll just shut down, honestly him going to the range doesn't happen too often when he's stressed but it is always an option)

Actually pretty close to the Canadian provinces, at least closer to them than they are with most of the states (Alberta scares him though, will never be alone with Alberta)

Loves astrology, knows everything that he can and had tried to get the other states into it but with no success (technically, they actually got Connecticut pretty into the science side of it)

Space cat

Likes to stargaze, occasionally will drag Nevada and Utah out with him, they can’t get Arizona to go unless he is dying

Animal Crossing ruined him and he loves the games so much (New Leaf's their fav)

Also I did a drawing since this is really short

Have NJ and NY. Just wanted to do a quick sketch, bit bored, hockey in a few hours though so I have that to look forward too :D

There was a fire on my street, I think it was some sort of kitchen fire but I'm not sure. Nobody was hurt thank god and it seemed the fire only effected the inside, however I didn't get the chance to look at the front.

I missed the actual fire BUT I got to see the fire trucks and OMIGOSH they are epic as all hell, like I know that firetrucks are so cool but MY GOD did I not realize just how cool. I've been close to firetrucks before like this isn't the first time but seeing it from the perspective that theres an active fire makes them WAAAAYYYY more badass.

I felt like I had to share this because FIRETRUCKS!!!!

I hath come to humbly ask thee for Texas hc’s 👁️👁️

*do not feel forced or rushed to answer this!!*

It's not been almost a whole day, I don't know what your on about. Seriously though sorry this is late, I wanted to get it done yesterday but sadly I do have a friend who also likes hockey so, anyway ENJOY!!!

Texas-

He can sing and play the guitar really well

Big ol’ stargazer, was very sad when he realized that the StateHouse wasn’t in the best location to stargaze

He doesn’t agree with a lot of what happens in his state, not that he has much of a choice but if asked in private he makes his opinion pretty known

Will occasionally drink a glass of oil, yea know, for the funnies, the other states are absolutely disgusted, even the ones with oil drilling

He’s never actually done drugs, like it was very tempting at one point but he never actually tried it and doesn’t plan too

Owns a dirt bike and bought a few other southern states one as well to do races

He’s smart, but specifically the stupid kind of smart, the kind of smart that got a super collider built but dumb enough to not be able to convince the government to keep throwing money into the project (this is real, this did happen and I love it so much it’s so interesting)

Manipulative bastard (affectionate??)

He doesn’t always dress like he’s a cowboy from the deep south, he actually has a lot of what the NE states call “normal people clothes”, he just prefers to dress like what he is, a gay cowboy

Whore (affectionate)

Was the one who started the southern Minecraft server, mainly so he could bomb Oklahomo legally

*cough cough* Requests are open, I'll take anything and everything I'm bored

Time Travel AU: The Weasley + The Not Technically Their Children and The Timey Wimey Number 13

Percy, Penelope and Oliver are the epicenters, once they turned 13 their memories returned

Each of the kids got their memories back at 13 except for Bill and Charlie, who only get memories back through doing things again like deja vu except way more clearly. This is because Bill and Charlie are older than Percy and because of the cursed vaults somehow

Harry and Hermione are able to get their memories back despite not being related to the Weasleys (though technically Harry is very distantly related) because they are soul connected/bound to Ron.

How this happened idk but it did, so instead of them getting their memories at different times they all get them when Harry turns 13, as he is the youngest out of the three

Percy has a way of communicating with Penelope and Oliver that’s not mail, its a message book, set up like a message board and until all children are 13 its just the three of them

It was a spell gone wrong, Penelope was trying to transfigure a Time Turner using a form of alchemy she had found in an untouched section of the ministry library, using Percy and Oliver as anchors, however it backfired and caused the three to wake up on their 13th birthdays

Percy beforehand could sort of see magic and afterwards so can Penelope and Oliver, just much fainter, because of this Percy knew that it wasn't just them three when the twins turned 13, as he assumed the weird hand markings on Bill and Charlie were unrelated and most likely caused by the vaults, which is not entirely wrong 

Each person that came back has a hand marking, its like swirls with the alchemy circle that was used in the center, its not visible to those who are not very sensitive to certain magic, alchemy being one of the ones Percy is pretty sensitive too

It was only three months post war, Fred did survive but was severely injured which had slightly carried over, George can also feel the pain that Fred can and vice versa but its severely dimmed

Percy was able to circumvent most of the insanity that was his third year (his roommate Adams was absolutely mauled and killed by his other roommate Nei and Percy was the one who found the scene after in their dorm, Percy was stabbed in the heart by murderous roommate after being super manipulated by him which was kinda stockholmish considering Percy did like like him) however Adams still died and Nei was still pretty insane, at least this time Percy didn't get stabbed, though the residual pain did carry over just significantly less, and hey this time he didn't completely pull away from everybody he loved and cared for in fear of them getting killed or him having to deal with emotions, he chose therapy this time

Charlie was more around during his last two years, he wasn't as sensitive to alchemy as Percy but he could still tell something was up, a lot was happening differently though he didn't know why it was different, it wasn’t until his last year that he realized that it probably had something to do with the vaults and told Bill about it, who was in training to be a curse breaker but seemed to already know pretty much everything loosely

The twins are connected, not soul bound/connected like the GT, proper connected, they can share thoughts feel each others pain (though only lightly) and their emotions (the more focused they are the more they can feel), this seemed amplified when they turned 13 and got their memories, the two rarely left each other's side, more attached than before, the heightened connection also allowed them to get an idea where the other was

Ginny was the most obvious about it, simply just pulling Percy aside and demanding an explanation because “This is something only you would have a hand in, not even the twins are this chaotic I swear”, she wondered if Luna would also remember despite her not having any relations to the Weasleys but considering its Luna anything was possible. Luna didn’t remember but did have something similar to the deja vu effect Bill and Charlie had, just a lot less, but since its Luna she didn’t need to have it as strong to know as much as she did

The soul connection between Harry, Hermione and Ron allows them to have a vague idea where each other are, have short thoughts sent to each other with training, have semi shared mannerisms (it's not strong or obvious), and feel each other's emotions, not that they know any of this beforehand. The bond was created during the horcrux hunt however since everything was strung so high none of them noticed anything was off, even after the war they just thought it was the bond of besties who literally killed and fought for each other and not some weird literal soul bond/connection, however everything is made extremely more obvious once Harry turned 13 and all three got their memories back (All the Weasleys were concerned as to why Ron just kinda started having a panic attack in the middle of the night, Hermione was much calmer because of her proximity to Harry but not by much truly, and Harry was a mess but what's new)

Bill had known something when he turned 13, he wasn’t sure what but something was different, he had an easier time with school and wanted to become a curse breaker despite not even knowing what it was. When he got more and more involved with the vaults he knew how to deal with them, knew just the right steps, when he had begun his training as a curse breaker he understood more. There was a curse on him, a time curse however it was scuffed and very broken, when Charlie came and talked to him about the weirdness Bill noticed that there was a strange marking on Charlie's hand, as a curse breaker he had to be able to see magic and his numerous charms and wards (I know theres like a proper term for little charms that are physical and stuff I just cant remember) helped with that

The twins doubt this timey wimey bullshit and while they weren't wrong, they were hit over the head for it 

Year three for the GT happens similarly enough, the difference being Harry talks to Remus about his parents and Sirius more and completely hands peter over to Sirius when asked, he does still somehow manage to escape but this time the GT work on getting Sirius a trial with the help of Penelope (their lawyer when the time comes is Lady Zambini or whatever her proper title would be, fanfics have made me love this woman) 

Voldy does still come back BUT Cedric doesn’t die, Percy and Penelope figured out a way to return vague memories to people like how it is with Luna but forced, problem is they gotta be 13 when it happens, so while Tonks would be in the know without the know, Cedric would be in the know with the know. The only way to do this is to alchemy their way through it, Penelope as the caster and Percy and Oliver once again as the anchors, otherwise it wont work at all

By the time Voldy is back, most of the horcruxes had been found but not destroyed as most of the information was with the GT, the destruction process goes well enough yada yada

As each got their memories, they barely acted like the kids they physically were which makes sense, however since they knew things would be better they relaxed, acted their physical age or younger, didn't care at all what people thought because goddamn it their childhood was stolen sue them for wanting it now, especially GT and Ginny, Percy and Co rarely did act their physical age and yet nothing was different because they were always like that

Bada bing bada boom whole AU, its pretty silly and dumb lolz, kinda all over the place if you think about it, probs more to be added, ciao adios Im done

I have Hogwarts Legacy and it just finished downloading OMIGOSHH

Okay so, stupid tired idea, WTTT Harry Potter AU. I know it's dumb BUT think about it, either they are still states and for some reason in the UK or they are like "normal" kids but they aren't normal at all.

I think though it would really only make sense to be the OG13 but maybe some others as well? I'm not really too sure but I do have a house list that I made ages ago.

Hogwarts Houses

New Jersey: Hufflepuff

New York: Gryffindor

New Hampshire: Gryffindor

Maine: Hufflepuff

Massachusetts: Slytherin

Vermont: Slytherin

Virginia: Ravenclaw

Connecticut: Ravenclaw

Pennsylvania: Gryffindor

Georgia: Hufflepuff

Florida: Slytherin

Louisiana: Ravenclaw

North Carolina: Slytherin

South Carolina: Gryffindor

Maryland: Hufflepuff

Delaware: Slytherin

Rhode Island: Gryffindor

I don't know, maybe it needs some work with these guys to make a bit more sense, pretty curious what others would think the states houses would be.

Like I know no idea why they would be going to Hogwarts but it would be funny for like 17 vaguely american students to just show up. Don't even ask me what their years would all be because I have no idea, that's up to y'all.

AHHHHH look at him!!!! Our favorite demon!!!

(I'm not a NJ simp thank you vary much, I just happen to live here)

Devil!NJ my beloved

@kyistell @sonofcoul27 cuz y’all are the resident NJ simps /lhj

And yes he has reddish-brown hair cuz I said so /silly

Oh look, what a surprise, a drawing from mwah. It's just the boys, NJ stole Rhodes hat and then had his taken by Del. Also yes Jersey is that much taller than them, I meant to put their heights but oops, Rhodes like 5'2 Dels 5'3 and Jerseys 5'8 so take that as you will.

*falls from the ceiling fan*

May we please have Loui hc’s? 👁️👁️

*completely fine if not dw <3*

Ask and thou shall receive :3

Louisiana-

He’s chaotic, just as bad as Florida but not nearly as obvious

Dyslexic, normally with English but it can affect him when reading French as well

Was really wary of the NE for most of his childhood as a state, now he is generally fine with them but there is no way he in going into any of their states willingly

Has been in a small prank war with Kansas since the 60s, over that time other southern states have been dragged in every so often

If he’s exhausted then there is no hope for understanding him

He won’t be in a good mood if he’s away from Florida for more than two days

He and Nevada go to parties in their states, switching every time

Is really chill and not aware of anything if he doesn’t have a daiquiri or any type of alcohol for more than a day

Has gotten into multiple fights with numerous states because of his quote on quote drinking problem, “it’s not a problem *state name here* I will literally die without it”

Always has a song stuck in his head, he has zero control over what the song is so it could be the most annoying thing in the world or something that puts him to sleep

The Cooking Mama god, The Babysitting Mama god, The every Mama game ever god, he is way to good at them

Has a few pets, 3 lizards, 2 cats, a few gators, and a snake

Absolutely loves horror games

He loves to see different magic systems and how they work in video games and books, it’s his favorite pastime 

He started to ask Jersey about his magic and how it works slowly but surely once he started to trust him more

He and Florida fell into the Hudson on one of their first visits, never again (seriously how are York and Jersey alive!??)

Cryptids are real, he’s met a bunch, but it is so much funnier to say they aren’t when California tries to prove they are

Collects YuGiOh cards, started because Florida got really into Pokémon but he couldn’t get into it as much

Likes to draw, just anything that comes to mind it goes on paper

Has a pin board, he mostly has button pins and enamel pins from anything and everything

Will just lay on states if there is no room on the couch, he doesn’t care if there is another couch, he wanted to be on this one and he doesn’t care how

Since there’s no hockey for you for 10 days, could you draw a state maybe playing hockey?

So I wanted to get this done immediately, went onto Pinterest for references because while I never use them, references would be the only way I could do this, got distracted looking at hockey memes, went and bothered my father and here we are now...oops?

It's not the best but considering I really didn't have a reference pic for this exact pose, I gotta say I think I did pretty well :D

Requests are open, art or headcanons or whatever, send them in and I will get to them I promise :)

May we please have some NY hc’s? 👁️👁️

*not forcing*

I am so sorry for this being literal DAYS late, things happen but I still feel bad, anyway I shall deliver as it is better late than never!!

Doesn’t like planes (feel like it obvious why)

Can figure skate, likes to do so for 30 minutes as a warm up before hockey

He has a lot of scars, pretty much all on his chest and arms though he does have a good few on his legs

Met Delaware when he visited Netherlands home for the first time, he continued to visit every weekend until Netherland had to leave

Actually likes Netherland, way better than England that’s for sure

He found out that there was a another New state when he found New Mexico going through his kitchen, he still doesn’t have a single idea how NM had gotten there and neither does NM

Friendship bracelets, specifically Loom (the rubber bands)

He has some problems with his own humanity because while yes he is a state personification, he also had parents and has grandparents, something that pretty much every state except for a few have,  swimming in the Hudson didn’t help at all seeing as now he’s all sorts of something

While he and Jersey seem attached at the hip, they actually don’t spend nearly as much time together as the other states thing, yeah they are slightly attached at the hip but they will go weeks without a single hello at times

Hates change, he went through so much of it as a child that he can’t stand it now

Spinny chair go brrrrr

“I’m not autistic, I just don’t like you”

He can’t really drive, like he has his license but is terrified to use it in his own state, he prefers public transport in the city rather than driving and always lets Jersey drive whenever they are in a car

He doesn’t like fireworks, they are pretty much way to loud for him to be okay

Used to have a pet duck

I don’t have tumblr on my phone but I do have discord. I promise my hand writing isn’t always that messy, I was writing with my finger.

I’m so sorry if you can’t read what I said, basically I was just saying how drawing is inconsistent on ipad, that I drew half of this with my finger, and that I love my Jersey design, so my normal tag notes but writen.

Heyhey, you know whats still open? My ask box. Art and headcanons, I'll do it at some point, you just gotta specify what you want me to do :D

I have stuff I should be doing, but lets be honest with ourselves, procrastination makes you do more than you thought you would because it's 3 in the morning and you need sleep but can't till you done the thing

EEeeehhehehehehe thank youuuu!!

How about some nice, good ol happy, totally not sad at all what so ever NJ headcanons (you could throw in some angst ones as well, I certainly won't complain)

Hello small mortal, yes yes I do have some NJ hc’s for ya here ya go :)

NJ braids flowers into his hair even if it’s not long enough and he has definitely tackled his brothers to the ground to put flowers in their hair too.

^he’ll never admit it but NY’s was his favorite to do since it’s long and fluffy.

He’s really good with hair for some reason and no one knows why. He’s one of the only people that NY’s allows to touch his hair.

His tail wags when he’s happy :>

Taught Texas how to take care of his bat wings since his own wings are very similar and he was lowkey horrified when he found out that Texas was keeping them folded 24/7 and not fixing them when they get hurt and not asking for help when his wings are hurting.

He can do a really loud blood curdling screech if he wants to

One of NJ’s horns has a crack in it and is shorter than the other. Courtesy of England’s bitch ass.

hehe demon. It's cute, it's simple, I like it :D

I don’t know if you’re still doing this but if you are may I please request a Greg or New Mexico drawing? If not then that’s ok! But I love your sketch style it looks very appealing

Awww I'm glad you like the style, also yes I'm pretty much always doing this, they never close. Went with New Mex by the pool, in the middle of winter (not like he cares).

Ahhhhh I just saw this but omigosh, poor Jersey

Hi I'm now depressed (hockey has absolutely ruined me), gimme Jersey angst, please?

Why sad? Happy! HAPPY >:D /ref that no one but me understands

But uhm- yes here’s some NJ angst for ya >:D

New Jersey and New York were currently participating in one of their favorite activities to do together. Play fighting! The two have them have always loved play fighting with each other no matter where they were. It was a good way to get out the loads of energy that the two of them had stored up 24/7, and it was quite enjoyable for both.

NJ grunted a little bit as he was headbutted in the chest by NY, who was previously being held in a chokehold. He didn’t let go though, despite NY’s cat-like biting and scratching. He was basically immune to it at this point, being NY’s token scratching post (this is a half joke). The Garden State put in little to no effort when fighting NY, seeing as he was significantly stronger than the latter. That didn’t make the playfighting any less fun though!

That was, until….

New Jersey completely forgot that this was just a play fight, and he threw New York over the couch when he saw the opportunity. See, this would’ve been okay-ish, if NY got up right after. And it would’ve been okay-ish if Jersey didn’t hear a loud whimper along with a thud. Ahhh hell.

He stood there for a minute catching his breath, as well as getting more and more concerned and afraid when his little brother didn’t get up immediately. And he started panicking after hearing the loud whimper. Oh god. Did he actually hurt New York?? What if he did??? Oh god- did NY hate him now???? Was he scared of him maybe???? Either one would be just as bad…. What would the others say if they found out that he hurt a fellow state???? Much more that he hurt his own little brother????? Surely they would hate him….

New Jersey had been so lost in his thoughts that he hadn’t noticed New York calling his name until he felt a gentle bap to the face. He snapped out of it and looked at whoever had just slapped him. New York stood there, with a mildly concerned look on his face. New York stood there. He was okay. Okay. Good. New Jersey would’ve never forgiven himself if he actually hurt his little brother.

"….Jers? Ya good?? We lost ya there for a second." New York said, playfully punching NJ in the shoulder.

"Huh? Oh- yeah- I’m. Im fine."

Based on how New Jersey suddenly found himself pinned to the couch with a hug, New York could tell that that was pure bullsh*t. He wasn’t going to force the Garden State to say anything. He’ll just hug the sadness out of him.

After a few minutes, New Jersey speaks up:

"Did I uhh….. Did I uh- hurt ya by any chance…?"

"No?"

"Mk….. ya sure?? Don’ make me check ya for injuries." New Jersey said sternly, but there was a worried lilt to his voice.

"Jers. I’m fine. Jeez yer soundin a lot like Masshole. Bein’ a mother hen and crap…"

New Jersey just chuckled a bit and laid there comfortably, listening to his little brother’s rambling. He was happy too. That meant that New York okay…..
