Unpopular Kurapika Headcanon
A/N: As always, just my thoughts! Hope you enjoy! š
Warning: torture, murder and rape mention.
I feel like if Kurapika were to find out a spider had an S/O he would go crazy. He doesnāt understand why youād be with those monsters and that leads him to assume a possibly innocent person has involvement in the troupe that most of the troupe members likely donāt even know exist. Hell, some of the Spiders s/o might not even know the full extent of what the troupe does for their own safety.
( I totally head-canon that theyād all keep their s/o to themselves if they did except maybe Phinks? Especially if they werenāt a spider. Most of this is because while they have some trust in their team they donāt with their s/o especially because theyāre aware people with ability like Paku exist thus the more people that know the more danger their s/o is in).
He would demand to know how long they had been with said spiders, what do they know? Do they know about the Kurta Massacre and did nothing? Did they participate? You didnāt even try stopping their murderous acts and this is as bad as the act itself in his mind.
Kurapika would become very angry and unhinged. His friends likely would not be able to stop him. Leorio tried but got knocked out after being punched to a wall. Gon tried reasoning but fell to death ears. Honestly Killua might be able to stop it but it would be more like him and Gon would try finding the spider themselves to get Kurapika to stop from murdering someone who was so clearly not apart of the spiders. (This would come with the condition of not murdering Kurapika. Not a trade for the Spider for their s/o. Gon and Killua can see the advantage to it but honestly they just want Kurapika to stop and donāt care if it comes from a trade or just bringing the spider. This condition is something that the Spiders would live with as they want their s/o back. For now at least. They will plan a brutaler way for Kurapika to die later then.)
Depending on the answers given to the previous questions depends on the outcome.
First, his clan was all murdered. How could a troupe member have someone that they probably loved and still were able to do that with no regrets, qualms or sorrow.
He would want the spiders to feel that sorrow. Even if their s/o wasnāt involved. Heād want the spiders to feel isolated, abandoned, lost and the pain and suffering of loosing the people who love and accept you.
He would be a loose canon. He would only see red.
Depending on whose S/O they were probably depends on their punishment. People like Feitan, Chrollo, Phinks, and Nobunagaās s/o getting the absolute brunt of it. (If your Chrolloās good luck, your gonna get the worst of it).
If you werenāt the s/o of one of the previously mentioned spiders youād probably get a little roughed up and his judgment chain/ chain jail with nen conditions(he would adjust his conditions stating since while you may not have been directly involved with the massacre of the Kurta you are still involved with the Spiders).
The worst possibility is maybe he snaps and kills the s/o. This isnāt likely for the members S/O as he really wants the spiders to see their s/o destroyed as a consequence of their actions.
Now as I stated people like Feitan, Chrollo, Phinks, and Nobunagaās s/o would get the absolute brunt of it.
Now remember this man is only seeing red, there is no reasoning or stopping him like this. Not when it comes to the fact the troupe can kill people others care about but when it comes to their own loved ones they expect to be untouchable. He just canāt stop. He will regret and have a hard time accepting whatever decision he goes through with. Especially with these members s/o.
Their punishments could go from beating to torture to murder to having his own time with them but it wouldnāt be just his nen chains. The spiders deserved to get pain like no other and what better way than through their s/o.
He would try to break the Spiders s/o. This could be keeping them for a few days to figure out what to do with them and beating them whenever they say something to defend themselves or a Spider. He will break their wills. He wants them to beg for death like his clan did. He will take their eyes. No mercy will be found when he is like this. He wants them to break.
He gets a terrible idea to claim their s/o as his own while breaking them. This means he will force himself on them. He reasons they deserve it. The fact he gets pleasure from the spiders knowing what he did to their s/o disgusts himself. Knowing it will scar their s/o. That the spiders will never be able to get away from a piece of him. Something so intimate and sacred, ruined. He wants to make sure the spiders think of him when they tend to the psychological and physical wounds of their s/o. He wants to make sure they will ALWAYS see traces of him even if just in memories or a flash when they see or touch their s/o. He wants them to feel pain and heās not above going low methods he will for sure regret and have a hard time living with.
Kurapika justifies all of this with his end goal being to destroy the spiders. Their s/o was unfortunate but necessary collateral damage.
If Killua and Gon show up with the spider they will be horrified but try to block the memory of how far Kurapika is willing to go to break a Spider. The spider will collect their s/o with a calmness like no other but their aura promising nothing but the most painful murder possible. Meanwhile Gon and Killua try to hold Kurapika back begging through tears to just let them go. Heās done enough. When Gon tells Kurapika heās scaring them that is the moment when Kurapika snaps out of it and looks at his friends. Both pairs of eyes glassy showing urgency for him to stop.
Kurapika will cry, he will feel like he broke himself and imprisoned himself rather than the spiders with his actions. He never wants Gon and Killua to stare at him so afraid and hesitant to reach out again. He refuses to let himself get so out of control again.
He will disappear from his friends for a long time, ashamed of himself. While he is thankful Gon and Killua did stop him from going further he would have a hard time accepting they brought the Spiders to him. Both because it was stupid and they couldāve been hurt but also because his trust felt betrayed though he would push that feeling down a bit more. He knows they did what they had too.
He may still think the Spiders and their s/o deserved it but not at the cost of his closest friends. The only family he has left. It doesnāt necessarily mean he regrets doing it but he regrets being so unhinged that Gon and Killua felt it necessary to seek out the Spiders.
Depending on what happens and if the other Spiders know, Chrollo will most likely order that anyone who crosses paths with the chain user can kidnap and torture the user but to make sure to leave them alive so the s/oās Spider will get the finishing blows. (After his exorcism of course).

The reason I could never be spider man is because I am very respected in the spider club.
They would never bite me
Imagine if spiders had wheels instead of legs and they would use them to slide down buildings.
Whooooosshhhh there goes spidey John with his usual test drive.
one of my favorite lotr facts is that gondorians speak sindarin as a first language and yet when faramir was talking to frodo and sam about cirith ungol he was likeĀ āwe donāt know whatās in there.ā like faramir. cirith ungol is sindarin for āpass of the spider.ā do the math
Heads up to anyone with arachnophobia.
In the depths of his garden on Batam Island, Indonesia, dedicated macro photographer Uda Dennie has mastered the art of photographing jumping spiders that have droplets of water on their heads, giving them the playful appearance of wearing large, reflective hats.
"The massive water droplets stay in place for about a minute, which is just the right amount of time for the 33-year-old to snap these shots. While most of us feel a bit squeamish when looking at macro photos of spiders, Dennie has somehow taken that uneasy feeling away, replacing it with curiosity and glee."

Iāve made my very first custom! Her name is Rose, I modified #991 to loosely resemble a rose hair tarantula!
I just. I get really emotional about mirror spiders and their reflective scales.
they look like itty bitty bejeweled hatpins and I canāt. cope. i want one to dangle on my earlobe like an earring and whisper its tiny spider secrets into my ear. i would laugh at all of its jokes, and walk slowly and with my neck held very straight, so as not to disturb it during spider naptime.
Spider from the floor thought it was a good idea to grab onto my foot and runs off like Iām the one in wrong
I keep feeling my skin crawl like heās back
The Spiders In My Room
There are spiders in my room,
I see them every day.
Back and forth across the wall
They go about their spider way.
They eat up all the bugs,
And so I let them stay,
And hope with all my heart they crawl inside me and eat those in my brain.
