Thinking About How Funny Missed Connections Is From Anyone’s Perspective Other Than Nightshade’s

Do you have any favourite headcanons about Nightshade?

(I feel like them being autistic is a pretty common headcanon, so I’m curious if you have any thoughts on that as well)

YEAYEYWYEYYSUSY OH MY GOD YES WE HAVE SO MANY HEADCANONS ABT THEM !!!!! get ready for a fuckn infodump (also sosoos many of these are just us projecting)

warning: i sound like an insane person

okay so YES !!! nightshade is absolutely autistic. and they are stimming constantly. they stim vocally a lot, and a lot of the time its just bird sounds, but sometimes it'll just start screaming lmao. it also likes to rock back and forth a lot!! definitely a verrrry common one.

Also if youve seen how we draw nightshade you might've noticed that we draw xem with little wings in root mode! they also flap those to stim :]

also they love slime!!! this is verry much just me projecting but i like to think xey love slime and they have a huge collection of textures <33 its favorite is bingsu!!!

and NEOPRONOUNS as you might've noticed :P. (we have a nightshade alter that uses neos so we are once again, projecting) but anyway, it was hashtag that told nightshade about neos, and they immediately got into it!! they have many and love hoarding them <3 some of xeir favorites are it/xe/that/owl/web/bot/mur

bones!!! vulture culture!!!!! they collect bones. sometimes theyll go out into the forest and search for bones for hours (it has soooo many antlers) and if web finds a dead animal, web'll take it back with them to clean it out webselves :]

They also have intrusive thoughts. yeah less fun headcanon time. they can be very vivid and very graphic, and its caused nightshade to have panic attacks a few times. i hc that bumblebee also used to have them, so bees helped xem through some of the bad ones <3

also xey have severe emetophobia. yeah i know, a bit of a weird one. if someones sick, they will be avoiding that person like the plague. whenever it watches a movie with the family, it'll always check if there are emeto scenes so it knows when to look away or leave (shout out to doesthedogdie.com i fucking love that website!!!!)

this post cus i think about it a lot

and general terran hc! i headcanon that all the terrans can eat human food :D although nightshade specifically has a difficult time eating (the tism) and xey'll only eat things like noodles or very processed food. murs a huge ramen lover 😎

MINECRAFT. you cannot look at nightshade and tell me they dont love minecraft!! xey have a survival world going where xeyre completely decked out in netherite, have a hundred redstone machines scattered all over the place, and just so many huge projects going on. mur started a multi player world and got all murs siblings to join. most chaotic world ever

and now im thinking abt owls, so. they have night vision, because of course. and it also sleeps in a nest (terrans can sleep hc jumpscare) its just a pile of a fuck ton of pillows and blankets and if you touch it xey WILL bite you

also it has a very strong prey drive. if they see anything particularly small moving around on the floor they are fucking jumping it. its like xeyre the maltos mouser lmao. no small animal that shows up in the malto home is safe

oh and as for music !!! big fan of the big neurodivergent three lmao. lemon demon, will wood, tally hall. that stuff yknow? (yes im projecting) also heres a playlist that our nightshade alter made that is 100% what we hc source nightshade to listen to !!!!

LOVES STAR TREK !!!! you CANNOT convince me they wouldn’t. big fan of the non-human bridge officers <3 Spock, Data, Saru (and also big Odo fan) webs favorite is probably next gen :] also i 100% percent believe it was Alex that introduced xem to it. i look at alex and see a star trek liker. i will not be taking criticism

oh and now heres a weird one. when nightshade was a protoform, they were always very… squinty? i dunno, its just something we noticed. like why are you squinting baby, can you not see? and then when xey got their altmode, suddenly xeir eyes were much wider! and i like to think that they did actually have bad eyesight as a protoform! and becoming and owl greatly improved it :]

also they cant see glass in their alt mode <3 hashtag has a compilation of mur crashing into windows

and about the episode "missed connection", we aren't actually told how long nightshade was helping tarantulas, and while most interpret it as just one day, i like to think it actually took about a week at least or even longer. i dont really know why i hc this, but maybe its cus i need nightshade and tarantulas to be besties or i'll die

okay thats it for now <3 i definitely have more headcanons so i might make a second post abt em later

Your reminder that Transformers Animated had a Japanese opening that is the most anime thing I've ever laid my eyes on for an American show and it's so cool...

Submas are Gamers and you can tear that from my cold dead hands Emmet likes fast-paced reaction style games; typically Rhythm games (OSU, Taiko, Particularly fond of Miku Games), or FPS (But only the funny ones like Fortnite and Overwatch, Man hates COD and Battlefield with a passion) Ingo likes the slow strategy games and LOVES a good story - His favourite game was Fire Emblem 3 houses and he has over 1000 hours on Animal crossing (He plays it during his breaks) - Also very much in love with Beatsaber. Emmet hates it and feels motion sick when playing VR. BOTH have countless hours wracked up on Train Sim games, They share an account because they each like different bits of the game and they cover each others weaknesses like IRL. Both are also super into Racing games- they like the speed and the excitement of it. They can thrash ANYONE at Mario Kart, because they co-ordinate their attacks to knock everyone else out and then duke it out between each other for first. Among Us is a trainwreck because the boys take it too seriously and they have definitely cried and argued for real over it before. Emmet more so than Ingo, but Ingo can get petty very easily. Minecraft. They're autistic what more do I have to say about Minecraft?? jk but Ingo spends HOURS making underground rain systems in the mining tunnels Emmet builds. They're mostly always underground- their world looks so untouched from the top but they've had the same world for 10 years its all underground. Emmet likes to keep pet creepers to leave in his brothers way every so often. Ingo retaliates by building a waterstream to filter Zombies from a spawner on top of Emmet. Emmet tries streaming on his own, hates it. Ingo then tries, hates it. Try streaming together on a whim and its now their side hustle. When Ingo comes back from Hisui with Sneasler they set up a dedicated Sneasler cam in the corner to catch her napping.

Another batch of choo choo brothers… 🕺🕺

I just like imagining them talking to each other about anythiiiiiing. They are loud and hard to read, but they move their hands around and can loudly talk about battle strategies for hours…to their neighbors’ dismay of course. The neighbors are like hhhh they’re so polite and they’re barely home, but whyy are they discussing the history of locomotives at 2am…

Thanks to everyone for the support on all the submas spam lol this has been a fun and relaxing break from work 🐷

Drew Emmet in skirt around the same time I drew those . Maybe it’s his way to deal with the heat 🔥 ( to his brother despair who notice he either becomes a greater menace OR a public decency hazard )
