Welcome To The Table - Blog Posts
I'll say more about it later because I wanna actually think about how all this would work but..........Superhero AU :)
GUESS WHO'S BACK FROM WAR!!!!!
Anyway being a Devils fan is an emotional rollercoaster and just when you think everything is over BAM they instill hope and whimsey right back into your veins.
Y’all gimmie your New Jersey headcanons, please, I am starved for content.
I don’t care how weird or strange they may be, just gimmie!!!
no one cares about my wttt/hetalia crossover fic but I am incapable of not spoiling my own shit so what i have so far is under the cut if anyone wants
Alfred yawned, blinking the sleep from his eyes. He looked around, still adjusting to the new light. Between the cheap faux-leather chair, the large round table, and the fluorescent lights swinging slightly above; great, he had fallen asleep in a meeting again. He couldn’t recall for the life of him what meeting, but he half expected Ludwig or Arthur to appear, scolding him for falling asleep again.
The light turned off for a moment, but quickly flicked back on; “I’m so sorry, I didn’t realize someone was still in here”
Alfred looked to the doorway, a man stood there. He wore a navy blue suit, and light blue tie, his hair and beard were dark and a bit long but neatly trimmed, Alfred took the US flag lapel pin to mean he was government… he swore he had never seen him before though, and Alfred knew everyone.
“Gov, I need to talk to you about–oh hello.” Another man came up behind the first, his shirt and tie were both loud, and looked like something a man fifty years older than he looked would wear, more importantly though was the white coat. What was a doctor doing here?
“Hi” Alfred said, offering an awkward smile, “I fell asleep, think the meeting that was in this room ended without me. Who was in here last?”
The two men looked between each other, a new air of nervousness permeating the room. “We were, but you weren’t here…” the dark haired man opened a file flipping through it, clearly looking for some hint of who Alfred was.
“You might have just missed him, there were more states than usual in the meeting today” the doctor (?) commented.
The other nodded carefully, weighing the possibility; “I’m sorry, who are you?” he looked over Alfred, his focus shifting to the flight jacket, “Are you Air Force? Did we arrange for you to come today?”
“Air force…?” Alfred got up waving his hands, in a negative way, as he crossed the room “No, let me restart.” He held his hand out for a handshake, the dark haired man taking it hesitantly, “I’m Alfred F. Jones, The United States of America”
The two men glanced between each other, then broke out laughing, “Very funny,” the dark haired one commented, accepting hand sanitizer from the other without even thinking about it. “Civilians really aren’t supposed to be in here, but since one of the states set you up to this don’t worry about it. Exit is at the end of the hall.”
He didn’t budge from where he was standing, “A. I’m not a civilian, B. No one put me up to anything, C. Haven’t told me who you two are.”
“I’m the Federal Government, this is Center for Disease Control”
The other pointed to the other them himself, “Gov and CDC for short”
“Yeah no, you two are the ones pulling my leg, I’m both of those things.” he stopped looking into the distance for a moment, “Actually, I know I’m one of those things, never really asked about federal agencies…”
Was just a quick little sketch sooooo enjoy?
Hand over the Texas hc's 🔫🥰
*not forcing ofc!! <3*
HIII!!! I wanted to get this done sooner but had to transition my brain from "OUTSIDE WOOOO" to "Sit yo ass down BOI" so this took a little...oops? BUT here ya go!!!
Texas-
*Slaps on back of the head* Oh this bad boy can fit SO much trauma
He has a human family but boy is he not human, he’s closer to human than Jersey and Maryland but whatever he is sure ain’t human
LOVES Transformers, the movies, shows, comics, all of it (whata nerd)
He’s very easy to become friends with so long as you give him the chance and you’re not at The Table
He’s a lovable dumbass and if one cannot handle that then one shall not be friends with sir cowboy
Surprisingly friends with New Jersey, they got closer after teaching each other how to cook certain things (Brisket and Pizza)
Adores cuddles, whether he’s big spoon or little spoon, he love ‘em
Is decently good friends with California, they may not agree on everything but the two been slowly learning that you don’t have to be friends with just those that share your same views and beliefs (a hard lesson for both to understand)
Oh you best believe this boy has become super best friends with Alberta, how could he not!? They are literally Walmart him!!
Used to go into the rivers near his home to dive for treasure, almost always found guns, so much so that he had to stop as his collection was a bit too big to take care of them all (he gave some to other states over time)
Oh wait yeah *clears throat* ✨~Guns~✨
He loves bats, thinks they are the most adorable little weirdos in the world and will do ANYTHING to protect them
Oh does he love to dance, will always find a victim someone to dance with, somehow always ends up being Oklahoma
He doesn’t really understand hockey but he’s trying (the southern states with teams are making sure of that) and he does understand why it’s popular, it’s the ✨~violence~✨
He will get what he wants, one way or another, no matter how long it takes and if he only has what he wants for a minute or two, he will get it.
Can you draw Colorado
Here ya go!!!
Honestly this didn't start out as my favorite but I gotta say, this drawing has suddenly grown on me, besides is Rado, the BOY!! I think it's his face, the way I draw him is just squish lol
Hey, look at this, a thingy tell y'all that the fancy ask box be open. That's correct folks, you, YES you, can send in asks about whatever, whether it be a drawing request or headcanon request, and I would be contractually obligated to answer them.
So please, SEND THEM IN!!!
HI BITCHES!!! GUESS WHOS STILL ALIVE!!!
*cough cough* Anyway, enjoy this Nevada drawing I did on the Ipad, isn't he pretty? I love him, like Nevada is just so fun to draw and whatnot. Maybe one of these days I'll color this (doubtful but you never know) :D
Wowza ain't this a big one eh?
SCENE KID NJ IS BEST NJ PROVE ME WRONG!!!!
*ahem* Soooo...I did this on my Ipad if it isn't obvious, I actually really like this lol.
There honestly isn't too much to say about this, like Jersey was a slight scene kid in the early 2000s and basically DIY'ed everything he is wearing, did I make it obvious enough that he is a Devils fan?
The red and green is a heavy call back to the original jerseys the Devils used, which I lovingly call the Christmas Jerseys, and clearly I went VERY heavy with that lol
The other side of the hat has a Rutgers patch instead of the Devils one you can see, this would have been when the Rutgers football team was doing pretty good I think soooo ya know, I felt it was important to mention.
ANOTHER POLAROID, this time by Rhode Island, and no you aren't reading that date wrong and I feel as though I don't need to elaborate ;)
Marylands like “You Mako Mermaid son of a gun, I KNOW WHO YOU AREEEE”
Headcanon: Maryland is convinced that Washington is a secret mermaid bc of starbucks. After all, Mary's never seen him at the beach, isn't that weird?
Whether Wash is or isn't is up to you
So I saw some stuff a little while ago about how "Oh why isn't there more ship names" or "Listen guys, other fandoms do this why don't we?" and I just want to say...
MY ASS DID SHIP NAMES WHEN I HAD TO DO SHIP REQUESTS!!!!
GoldenSunshine for CaliFlo and ColdCasino for ColoVada
So please people, if y'all are doin ship names, include my ass into it cause OOO do I love makin a good ship name :D
rhode island art pretty pretty please :3 ?
I AM SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG, I have not been at the computer at all recently and this time I can't use hockey as an excuse, I am very sorry!!! Anyway here~~
Someone complemented him XD (Del got it all on camera as blackmail)
I'm gonna force my texas headcanons on you yayy
My favorite personality is texas being transfem i actually forgot this one for a good bit but yeah i remembered it recently, i like to think the reason she doesn't figure out her dysphoria sooner is because partly she doesn't have that strong dysphoria and just thinks it's general insecurity that everyone has
I also imagine texas just not talking as a kid, i feel they just took a while to get it figured out i also imagine he had a weird voice for some reason
He has perception lens but doesn't use them because he doesn't like the look of them, another optional thing to my theory is that he might need them to drive but still doesn't and when someone finds his license says he needs his glasses they're just like "oh my god you could've killed me!"
He falls asleep right after work, for like 3-4 hours because of his sleep patterns (totally not me and school)
He crochets, i just gave him my one of my hobbies
Oooooo I love all of these :D
Transfem Texas is not something I would have thought of and yet it fits so well. Justa dumbass not realizing anything until someone gives a dare to wear a dress and of course Texas would never back down from a dare, so once the dress is on it’s like “…oh shit”
I mean Texases whole thing is guns soo…it would make sense if he was the quite kid, made fun of for his voice being weird and snapped…seems accurate
Blind as fuck Texas is hilarious, no one understands how this man has come so far without his glasses. The best shot in the StateHouse who actually uses guns consistently, best aim just in general for most things, I mean they don’t even ever see him stumble into stuff. Then they are on the road and get pulled over, Texas has someone grab his license for him and BAMB card says like “Yo ass so blind you couldn’t find a nuclear reactor if it wss right in front of ya” and everyone in the car is automatically terrified :D
Texas needs more hobbies than just ✨~Gun~✨ so him crocheting I can get behind. Same with the napping after work, cause let’s be honest here, there is no way that man is on a sleep schedule that is healthy enough to even PRETEND to be a sleep schedule XD
Yes yes, you are safe for now OwO
The bees, they just flock to him and he does not care if they could “kill” him, they are FUZZY!!!! (Also yes the bee is the state insect, love those pesky things here)
Just imagine, it’s 2am, your just going into the kitchen to grab something to drink before going back to or going to bed. You enter the kitchen and see Jersey and idk Loui maybe, just talking, ‘cept Jersey is straight up speaking tongues and Loui is acting like he understands what is being said (he doesn’t). Just slowly back away without being noticed and decide to never go into the kitchen again at night.
Meanwhile Jersey was just talking about how the strawberry poptart ia aids and the cookies and cream one is the best, looking like absolute death cause of how exhausted he is lol (he is not responsible for whatever he says when tired, it’s nearly started multiple wars at once so when he is tired the states just take whatever he says with a grain of salt smaller than an atom)
Yesyes he loves his babyes and whenever someone even thinks about trying to tell him otherwise…well…they don’t 😊
It has been way to long since I have bugged you for Jersey HCs sooo 🔪 hand then over 🙂
AIGHT AIGHT PUT THE KNIFE DOWN— /silly
Yes you may have the NJ hc’s :)
I picture him to have like- reddish-brown hair like Mass since in my AU they’re twins, but his hair is more on the brown side.
^Also he has blonde streaks in his hair that kinda look like bee stripes since they’re his state insect last I checked :3
Y’know how funny/cruel would it be if I just-*makes NJ allergic to bees*
^BUT DONT WORRY- the bees he hangs out with are friendly. To NJ at least. And York cuz he brings them roses.
This man says some of the most unhinged shit when he’s tired I swear to god-
He holds both of his dogs (a Doberman and a boxer (their names are Mar and Murrie)) like they’re babies and treats them as such (as he should)
Pspspsps heyheyhey, it’s that time where I ask for asks, please acknowledge me.
Art or HCs, maybe even lil shorties stories if ya ask nicely. I promise to get to them sooner rather than later but they will still probs be late, sorz in advance T-T
*cough cough* I heard someone say Baseball NY and Hockey NJ?
@alaskashigh *points aggressively* YOU!!!! I wanted to do this literally all day since I saw your post!!!!
I think this is like such a fun dynamic, whether it's shipped or just their normal bullshit (personally I don't ship them but I can agree with those who do ship them, they are very cute together)
They are arguing about who gets the backyard probably, a very common argument once the baseball season pops up I'd imagine (and I am), half the time the only reason they stop is because of a meeting lol
LOOK!! A COYOTE!!! AN ARIZONA COYOTEEE!!!!
Follow-up on the previous hockey position question, who plays goalie? Does someone just have to gear up randomly?
I totally didn't forget about goalies, nooooo. Anywaayyy super sorry about how long this took, finally got a hockey stick and literally have not touched the computer in days lol, BUT tis finally here.
HOCKEY STATES WOOOOOO-
New York: Forward, center, Goalie (only when he has too)
Tennessee: Defense, left-wing (doesn’t play often) Goalie (sorta consistently?)
Colorado: Defense: right-wing, Goalie (only one who plays this consistently)
Minnesota: Forward, left-wing, Goalie (mainly if Colorado is goalie on opp team)
Oregon: Defense, left-wing, Goalie (masochist)
Sooo yeah! Mainly based in like feels ya know, I feel like it sometimes is just picking a name out of a hat to see who has to get pelted with pucks, but normally it'll tend(y) to be these guys
Hehe Hockey!!!
What states do you headcanon play hockey, and what positions do they play?
HIA, it hasn't been 2 days, what are you talking about? Anyway I got them all down finally, I'm not gonna say they all make sense but most of them have a team so it's finneee...probably?
HOCKEY STATES WOOOOOO-
Jersey: Defense, left-wing
New York: Forward, center
Massachusetts: Forward, right-wing
Connecticut: Defense, right-wing (doesn’t play anymore)
Pennsylvania: Forward, center
Gov: Defense, left-wing (barely has anytime to play but tries to when he can)
Rhode: Defense, right-wing
North Carolina: Forward, left-wing
South Carolina: Defense, right-wing
Alabama: Forward, center (only plays roller hockey, college football offseason)
Missouri: Defense, right-wing (only plays roller hockey)
Tennessee: Defense, left-wing (doesn’t play often)
Arizona: Forward, right-wing
Colorado: Defense: right-wing
Minnesota: Forward, left-wing
Oregon: Defense, left-wing
Montana: Forward, center
I feel like most of these are self explanatory, like NY Jersey and other NE states, but others I may have to explain I think...oops?
Okay so, the Carolinas playing isn't really THAT surprising, they have a team (I don't know which state the team belongs too and I am perfectly fine not knowing lol), same with Tennessee, Arizona, Colorado, Minnesota, and Missouri.
Now Alabama on the other hand, football offseason, literally only roller hockey, besides ya know...violence. Hockey can be a very southern sport when you think about it.
Gov plays because once again, North East, but also because I have a feeling he would be very into the Washington Capitals. It isn't like he gets the chance to play often but when it's a slow winter day he can and will go and play on a lake somewhere with the NE states.
Connecticut doesn't play anymore because he is dramatic (RIP the Whalers, you will be missed until Carolina pulls out the jerseys again), and probably because of injuries or something, he's mainly just dramatic.
Anyway won't lie, this list is mainly off of vibes and whether or not they have a team. For example, California has three teams and yet it is impossible for me to see that man play any sport except maybe beach volleyball. Meanwhile Rhodey is on here and yet he doesn't have a team, I can just see him using hockey as a way to remove stress, it's therapy but WAAYYY more expensive.
Loved doing this one if it wasn't obvious lolz!
Eeee thank youuuu!!!
Listen I ain’t gonna say that pollution is a problem, but I am going to say that we got so FUCKED by the Canadian wild fires, like it was real bad air and stuff. So when in doubt, blame Canada (or the West when that’s all on fire, seriously it allll just comes over here).
Wasn’t alive but 2001 sucked for like everyone duh, the sad thing is that a lot of people who died were from NJ, since a ton of people commute to NY. Obvi a ton more New Yorkens died that day but a shit ton of Jersians did as well….so you know…something something angst.
Also yes the forest one totally counts as angst, the woods aren’t obviously dangerous here since we only have Forest Puppies™️ and like foxes and coyotes, but lemme tell ya, them woods not only definitely haunted but there is probably people doing the big illegals out there. Like moonshiners or…idk cultests probably, that’s also ignoring the actually legal hunting lol.
FUCK ENGLAND, damn tea drinkers.
Anyway thank you!!! This has made me unreasonably happy :D
Ayup friend, lifes in shambles, hockey has once again ruined me, and thus I must ask for you to absolutely ruin our boy New Jersey
(NJ angst hcs, if it wasn’t clear lolz, if you don’t got any when you see this that’s chill, take your time :D)
Ah yes I see you have once again returned to get NJ’s sadness :) /silly
Hmmmm tear scars on his wings……smth smth England…….
I don’t see him as someone that has had very good luck with dating (till he met S.C. or Del or Rhodey or whoever you ship him with), and it makes him kinda sad :(
^he’s sorta under the impression that people date him out of pity for some reason. And they’ll leave him when they feel less pitiful.
Idk if this counts as angst, but here’s a random hc: So like- NJ loves plants and nature and all that, so he also knows what herbs and weeds are good and that bring good health and could even help infected wounds. He also found this out from the amount of times he fcked off into the woods all alone and got hurt somehow.
……Okay so. I feel like he definitely watched like. Y’know. All the stuff that happened in 2001, as well as other things. He watched his brother and his brother’s city suffer. He wanted to tear his eyes away. But he couldn’t. He wishes he could’ve.
He definitely has some breathing issues. I’ve. I’ve decided that based off the pollution stereotypes.
I'm back, finally, with another chapter of The New State Groupchat. Enjoy :D

New Mexico dropped his phone upon hearing the blasting music from the hall. Opening his door the only thing he hears is
“OH OH OHAHO, OH OH AOH, OH OH OH OHAHO, THE RIGHT STUUAAAHHHHH-”
The screams continued even as he shut the door
“Nope”
Alaska n Cali ? ^_^ romantic or platonic, or neither, just how they’d interact doesn’t matter to me, just curious :33
I AM SO SORRY THAT THIS IS SO LATE. I meant to do this sooner I swear, I just had no idea how to do what I needed to on Google Docs mobile. Anyway, I went the platonic route sorta, it can read as romantic as well, sooo HERE!!!!
Alaska and California-
Cuddles, all the cuddles, it’s what they do like 80% of the time when they’re together
Alaska will just pick Cali up at random, like it’s the more normal thing in the world, and Cali just takes it
They don’t actually talk much when together, well Alaska doesn’t, Cali yaps
Cali somehow managed to get Alaska to watch anime with them one time, it ended at ep 4 when girl + dog = lot’s of crying from the both of them
Alaska has a pet bear and Cali has the insatiable need to pet and cuddle things that can kill him
They have gone to multiple sports games together, despite Alaska not liking the crowds and Cali not like the noise or the crowds, according to Cali it’s “a bonding experience to watch your team win while on the bring of either shutting down or a panic attack”
Cali does sketches of Alaska throughout the day, sometimes the drawings include other states but normally it’s just him, then at the end of the day Cali will give them all to Alaska who proceeds to put them all on the fridge in the garage
Winter vacay is determined by a coin flip, it’s normally with Alaska (it’s not rigged, Alaska just always picks the right side)
Cali tried to get Alaska to understand the appeal video games, then ended up getting demolished by him because of tilt control on Mario Kart
Alaska taught Cali how to ice fish, how to safely skate on open ice, and how to be silent in the woods
The two are just very close, Cali is an outcast not by choice and Alaska is one by choice, it’s an interesting relationship
Cali was incredibly close to telling Alaska about the fact that he writes fanfics, they didn’t but the fact that he was going to is something of note
Cali steals Alaska’s hoodies and shirts since they SWIM in them
Have I mentioned cuddles? Because that is basically what the whole relationship is built upon, cuddles. So. Many. Cuddles.
May I request NY angst hc’s? 👁️👁️
*🩴 (iykyk)*
Ask and thou shall receive. It’s not as many as I probably could have done but apperently when I have to do angst all my creative skills go out the window lolz
New York-
Never wears a shirt with sleeves shorter than elbow length, something something the British
Hates being in confined spaces without someone whos trusted, so Jersey and Mass
Yeaahhh his parents abandoned him to his grandparents, and he was abandoned or left behind multiple times during the war, so if he’s alone for too long he goes straight into a panic attack
Martial. Law. (The damn British)
Was on a class trip in NYC when the towers got towered with NJ and Rhode, watched the first tower get hit and then he woke up half a month later
Kidnapped and murdered multiple times, you know, normal colonial times
He’ll never admit it in any serious capacity but Action Park seriously traumatized him, he has not properly gone swimming at a park since
When he does sleep he doesn’t normally dream, when he does dream it’s always nightmares about pretty much his entire life, honestly he really needs therapy
My friends, thine ask box is open, feel free to ask for HCs (or art, though that might be either a lil late or from the ipad so it wouldn’t be the normal style sadly T-T).
Anyway I’m bored and have google docs on my phone, been too long since I last did this so please, ASK AWAY BITCHES!!!
I can totally see Ari cooking and just putting his whole hand on the pan to see if it’s hot enough while the others in the kitchen are just like “The hell!?”
People trust Utah for babysitting duty but when it’s Ari there needs to be another person around, elsewise Utah will do anything with the slightest bit of persuasion
Gov: Now why did you try to break into DisneyLand!!??
Utah: It seemed like a good idea at the time
Arizona: I asked politely to do something illegal
Gov: WHY!?
Arizona: Was bored lol
Also cant believe I ran ya dry of NJ HCs, sigh I guess I’ll have to ask for other states until ya get sick of me XD
Wassua broski, got any Arizona and NJ HCs up in that fancy brain of yours?
Moi? Fancy? Oh stawpppppp 🤭🤭🤭🤭
I sadly don’t have any NJ hc’s, but I do have some for Arizona (old home state! :D)
He’s 100% the Florida of the West, just less humidity.
Everyone loves him :3 No one hates him. If they do,,,,,, we’ll deal with that very quickly <3
Ari is the himbo ever <3
You may call him Ari, but if you call him Zona, he mightttttt shank you repeatedly (:
He experiences the equivalent of someone saying they’re from NY and then getting asked "what’s the city like?", but with Phoenix.
He can touch hot stuff without getting hurt (guess that’s how he’s able to touch NM huh?) and it makes the other states question his abilities
One of the only people to get the stick out of Utah’s ass and allow him to actually go have fun. Alas, the puppy eyes were too great for Utah 😔✊
As much as he loves summer, it’s an absolute nightmare sometimes cuz of his curly hair 💀 (<- coming from a curly/wavy haired person)
His hair is a sorta orange-ish brown cuz he tried bleaching it to die it, but failed and it ended up turning that color. It looks nice though, so he’s not complaining.
Wow me, drawing Jersey? Craazzzyyyyy
Anyway, I had an original design for this type of look on the Ipad, ended up not looking at it once since I apparently have memory. Kinda glad I didn't since I could go just by memory and figure it out as I went along ya know. (ps, for those who don't normally read tags just like, please do, i put so many lil things in there lolz)
Okay SO, I have this lil headcanon, nothin big, that Jersey didn't used to wear shorts until like 2000 or something, maybe a bit before then. This is because he has some scars on his legs, just from over the years, and wearing shorts not only shows those but also make it easier for him to get scrapes and such.
He was fine wearing shorts around NY, Del, and Rhode, occasionally Mass as well if he happened to be around at the time. He couldn't wear them around anyone else for a long time, some scars had Memories(tm) attached to them, some good most bad, so he just never wore shorts.
He's gotten a lot more comfortable wearing them around the other states over the years, mainly because of Covid where Mass unfortunately wouldn't let him keep wearing the same two pairs of pants. So he's fine now, if still a lil uncomfortable around some states (the west mainly), you just won't see him wearing them until it's the first day over 60 in state.
Anyway I love NJ but this isn't surprising, I live here. I am NOT a simp for this bitch, he's my state, I have to like him, 'sides who else would I attach to? Pennsylvania? Florida? Or god forbid NEW YORK!? Absolutely not, that's sacrilegious that is.
