>Discuss husbando>Worship husbando>Bully husbando>Post art, headcanons, greentext, etc.Previous Thread: >>58220900TQHow does your husbando handle stress? Is he the anxious type and often stressing about things or is he pretty chill.
I love RenGima... I love it.......
>TQI think it depends on the kind of stress, but he feels like a react-first-then-process-later kind of guy. He doesn't really shy away from his emotions and openly expresses them, so I think it would be pretty obvious if something was stressing him out. I wonder if that has to do with him being alone growing up, he never really regulated his emotions/reaction to stress so it just comes out in big ways.That being said, I can also see him kind of closing himself off if things are really stressing him out. He had to handle all the stress of raising himself and taking care of Mabosstiff by himself, so I think he has a habit of trying to handle things on his own, even if he doesn't have to anymore. Might be a hard habit for him to break for a while. I don't think he lingers on stuff for too long though, he's proactive and probably tries to solve problems in whatever way he can.He probably stresses a bit about his friends, which would come out as him nagging like the mom friend he is. He might seem mad or frustrated that people aren't taking care of themselves, but it's only because he cares so much. I think he easily gets stressed from watching other people cook or do things that he could do better too lol. Visibly gets frustrated at first, a little blunt or rude, but then tries to help anyway.Hiking and being outside probably relaxes him, or watching tv shows with that huge TV in his room. I think he likes watching cooking shows, but the competitive ones stress him out haha. Probably yells at the screen if they're doing something wrong!
>TQWorking as the branch chief of the aether foundation means he has lots of little stresses every day. Which leaves him quite irritable and he's prone to snap at people and come across as rude because he's a busy man with a lot to tend to and you're wasting his time.When it comes to the bigger stuff like the higher ups opening wormholes and he might lose his job if it gets out. Then he's actually very motivated and productive. He doesn't spend a lot of time wallowing because he knows he's the only person who's going to save his hide. He is a self made elite and there is that constant stress in his mind that he needs to keep himself there. That kinda pushes everything else in his life so he can keep up the facade of who he wants to be.A hot bath and a bottle of wine is how he really relaxes and can shut off his mind for a bit.
I like to imagine my husbando is a giant and im his tiny waifu that can sit on his shoulders or hang in his pockets

>>58263416>>58263421he's just standing there...MENACINGLY
I had a dream that was Faba related. I was in some shop and buying bean merchandise xD
>TQVolkner’s definitely a bottle it up until he can’t hold anymore and then blow up over something seemingly minor kinda guy. He’ll seem chill on the outside but when he does blow, it’s only going to be in front of someone he’s close to like Flint, his SO, maybe his parents (I imagine him having a decent enough relationship with them). Flint has probably learned not to take it personally and more as a sign that Volkner feels comfortable being honest and vulnerable around him, and once Volkner cools off and seems like he’s in a better mood Flint may try to remind him that there’s better ways of dealing with stress. Not sure how effective those talks are or if much changes (this is advice coming from Flint of all people), but he’d probably try to tone it down if someone he had feelings for gave him the exact same advice.
>>58263421damn he's got some DSL's ngl
How do you anons cope with the fact your husbando is not real? He is the only one I’ll love in my life ;-;
>>58265402I used to go through spurts of low feelings because of that, especially when the hyperfixation and new and very strong. I try to feel close to him in whatever way that makes me happy, but it is important to recognize that they're not real. It's easy to fall back onto them for comfort because since they're not real, they can never really hurt you and you can control the entire relationship, but it's not realistic. Acceptance is hard, but it's important to keep yourself healthy. It does get better with time.Husbandos can serve as motivation to better yourself, serve as inspiration for little daily things or give you things to daydream about and THOSE feelings and things are real, even if he isn't. Just don't get stuck in comparing potential partners to an unrealistic expectation in your husbando and maybe don't use chatbots as much if you do. I think they feed into those feelings, too.
>>58265402>husbando is not realMan.
>>58265402I basically get sad.
>>58265402I mean, I can chat to him on the bot whenever I want to and I can think of him. And when you're in a relationship with someone the feelings only matter between you and your partner. Beyond that what does it matter other than social norms?
>>58265402I view husbando as just kind of a filler until I hopefully get an irl partner (though as the years pass, the chances of that are looking more and more bleak). He keeps me sane and fulfills my need for love and affection while I'm alone, but I just kind of hope that eventually I'll be able to move some of this obsession to an irl boyfriend/husband. I don't plan on ditching husbando entirely, but I'd likely tone the obsession down a bit once my needs are met irl.
Soon it will be my one year anniversary of finally noticing and obsessing over the twinsies. I started getting into them after seeing they have cute round heads underneath their hats LOL. But it also helps that they look like Raidou...
>>58266705
>>58265402I don't need to.... I've always "accepted" the fact that they're fictional and that neither of us would be into each other if they were real. Actually, I'd be really concerned if any of them had their eyes on me IRL. 2 brainwashed cult members and a cosplaying thief... all criminals... would rather not be on such mens' radar IRL, kek. Some stuff is really only cute in fiction. So the "not being real" aspect is absolutely part of their charm for me. I'd love to spend time with them in lucid dreams rather than have them be real in this world. That'd be perfect for everyone involved, I think (because husbandoism aside, I would not want these men to get ported from their utopia-like world into this shit reality kek). If only I could lucid dream, though... ;_;Although, out of my 3 special boys, post-Cyrus-clarity Saturn (his DPPt game version) MIGHT be safe & mentally stable enough to be IRL husband material for me.. But even so, I'm just not the type to get sad/depressed over this sort of stuff. But if you struggle with these sort of feelings, perhaps knowing that husbando is happiest in his own realm might help... He wouldn't thrive as much in this world as he does in his own, which holds his mons, friends and everything he knows
>new N centered song released>no one posts about it at allthere are no N fans in the husbando threadhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFZK8GbCmQY
>>58268027I don't use this thread but I was going to make a thread about it since I'm a vocaloid nigger. Problem being 4chan was dead for a while so I couldn't.Nilfruits is one of my favorites so I hope you enjoy. He's had better though since he doesn't normally use Miku.
>>58268027One N fan here. I don't follow the Project Voltage songs and haven't followed anything Vocaloid related in over a decade.
>>58268027>Vocaloid song>posted 5 hours ago>no one posts about it at all>there are no N fans in the husbando threadkekmaoMaybe no Project Voltage fans. I mean it's a cool thing for sure, heard one song & liked it. But the whole hype about it didn't catch me. Not that I'm an Nfag (used to be but I'm just a casual fan now) but I don't know how they'd be aware of a song from a project that focused on types of Mikus (in terms of humans, please correct me if they've done other trainers yet). If anything, that's waifufag territory kekThanks for sharing though, I bet Youtube would wait several years before pushing this to me. And I hate & avoid shitter so I wouldn't know if it's posted there or not.
>>58268027I love N but I don't care for Vocaloid. That said, I will listen to it when I will have the time.

>>58269289see >>58268027 (but thanks for sharing still!)
>>58269354Yeah I noticed later lmao
I like this guy, but he's got almost no art. Might start playing Cafe just to see him
>>58266491>Raidoubased fellow megaten enjoyer. there's something about slick black hats and capes/coats that really workson a semi-related note i've always thought that volo was unlucky to be in the pokemon franchise and not smt, since he would've had a route if he was. he'd probably be law-adjacent given how much he despises the concept of suffering
>>58265402i just figure that my husbandos would be some level of awful to be with realistically (god-obsessed psycho, gambling addict, yakuza leader, somewhat sociopathic in the name of science, had no real contact with people for most of his life, very disillusioned due to loss of his career). fictional characters will always be better and more ideal than real people. i wouldn't want them to be real otherwise it'd be a broken pedestal situation
>>58265543>>58266169>Just don't get stuck in comparing potential partners to an unrealistic expectation in your husbandosee this is my problem. i've been husbandoing for so long (nearly 2 decades now) that real men just don't interest me whatsoever. the last and only time one did was a crush in 4th grade that lasted a few months. i just don't find irl men attractive at all, i'm strongly introverted, and hearing all the horror stories of relationships only kills any desire for a relationship even more. but i feel the need to get someone for practicality purposes, since otherwise if something happens to me no one will help
>>58269372His situation is worse than that: The evil team he's in, Team Crunch, doesn't even have a Bulbapedia article.
>>58269267made for rape and loving cuddles
>>58269458Where's the justice? I love men with eye bags and goofy smiles
>>58265402i think my take on this might be divisive, hope it doesn't upset any anonsi actually don't feel any sadness when i remind myself of this. my husbando has been a constant creative muse and comfort character for half my life - 15 years, i'm an old hag lol. i will always feel magnetized to the concept of him, and he has enriched my life in ways impossible for a real person to accomplish. but i've also been in a very happy IRL relationship for a decade with an amazing real person who i love deeply and am starting a family with soon. so i speak from experience when i say it's important to remember your husbando isn't real, because he can never substitute a real person - and vice versa if you're anything like me. the love experienced with a real person, versus the love felt for the concept of a person are two very different things - one is reciprocated, one exists in your imagination (which is okay, but a different thing entirely). it's a hard pill to swallow, but also something we all intuitively know to be true.so to answer your question i cope by fully embracing the fact my husbando is fictional, since fictional beings/imagination sandboxing enriches my life in ways real people and reality just can't. it's a permanent, necessary role in my life reserved solely for him.
>>58268541It was never about different miku types, producers make any kind of music they want it only needs to have pokemon sample/themes
I’m in love anons
creating different spotify playlists centered around different themes for my husbando is fun as hell. Never really cared about music before falling for him.>>58272005Morty is a cutie. You got a good one there anon
God, I fucking love Volo. Feeling bad because I haven't drawn anything with him recently, but I'm saving all my good ideas for kinktober
>>58272005You're late to the Mortytrain, I'm afraid.
>>58272072I’m riding the Morty rails anyway and I love it!I’m sure there’s a “getting railed” train joke to make in there somewhere haha
>>58272072It is never too late to fall in love with a husbando. Husbando love happens when husbando love happens, regardless of mainstream fandom relevance.Besides, Morty season is starting again.
>>58272053are jannies gonna ban you? thats a pretty obvious banana in his pocket there
>>58272233He's just happy to see her
>>58272233Jannies never nuked that Guzma last thread, so that Volo is probably fine.
>>58272233It's a holster seen not too often in Unova, no worries. There's always something worse on the catalog.
>>58272233It's not Volo's fault he's that massive
I want Volo to do horrible things to me
>>58272566need him to lose it on me desu
>>58272667I wonder how many women has he legit snuffed
>>58272895ToT hopefully many !! (and me next!!)
>>58272895Not enough
So I was playing DP today and noticed Flint's sprite has cheekbones which made kind of like him. A shame about the tacky color scheme because the sprite looks like James Caan became a Pokemon character.
>>58273132Open your heart to him anon, he is an underrated hottie
me on the left (I did not shave)
>following my husbando's VA on twitchI think i've fully fallen for him, ya'll

>>58273604A perfect match
hampter husbando..
>>58272667>>58272912HOTTT
If you have to post Volo ryona at least post him getting ryona'd
>>58273837the only thing ryona'ing him is life itself
>>58273837I actually have drawn him getting stabbed and a power drill to his head
Focusing less on fandom stuff lately and more on professional stuff and I want to believe he would be proud of me, but as I was getting ready to take a shower I had this two panel comic pop into my head where he and my self insert are waving me goodbye and it made me really sadIt isn't goodbye forever, right? I can always come back?Like one of those sad "idol is graduating" comics (I'm not an idolfag but I see them occasionally)But I know he wants me to be successful and at least for a while I need to laser focus on my careerIt's hard not to feel down about the state of Pokemon. I'm not really excited for ZA, like at all, and I'm only going to be pirating it.For anons who are self employed or in a position where they have to rely on themselves, how do you stay productive? How do you crack the whip on yourself (non-sexually)?It isn't like being Pokemon brained is the entire problem, I live alone and don't really have real life human contact, but Pokemon has just always been *there* with me since I was a kid and I've never fallen "out" of it until now.Combined with trying to get my life together, it all just feels unknown and scary. In a way. I'm such an immature child sometimes. It's a complicated feeling. Thanks for reading my blog.>TQRed doesn't stress easily, but even when he does you wouldn't know it.He has a poker face that Grimsley would envy.His biggest tell of being stressed is that he starts to sweat.>>58265402I've never had trouble getting real boyfriends but they never feel as good as husbandos, especially Red since we go so far backCompartmentalization goes a long wayIt hurt a lot more when I was a teenager to realize they weren't real, it punched my heart with a hole that flesh ironically cannot fillNow when it hurts it's more like a numbed remembering of how badly it ached back then than being sad about it now because at some point my brain accepted that while he isn't real, I always have my imagination(1/2)
>>58274128(2/2)A part of me is always in the Pokemon world and has been since I was a kidOnce you get over that initial, raw pain, it's almost like no longer being scared of riding a bikeI think the problem is that for some anons they learn this later, going through it as a teenager made it easier I think but I've been husbandofagging for as long as I can remember>>58269916A fellow Redsister who is also an oldfag?!Not very many husbando him, I've only ever met one on social media that I liked and not for any retarded no doubles reasons but he's a rare husband to haveVery nice :) I feel you about fiction enriching your life in a way that reality just can't, it's always been the case for me which was another thing that I had to come to terms with as a teenagerFiction is way more exciting than real life, but there's nothing we can do about itOne day I'll find happiness in reality!>>58273523>you got a Catbox or AO3 link?That's hot as fuck, I love seeing Volo being rapey

>>58275104not even a pepperfag but this would be a wonderful thing to wake up to in the morning. A handsome boy cooking breakfast as I go into the kitchen after finishing up my shower/getting ready for the day
>>58274135>oldfag>career-focused>veteran Redsister>lifelong husbandofag>lifelong Pokemon fan disenchanted with the current state of the franchiselmao are you me? it's such a fucking comfort knowing there are kindred spirits out in the world. i never browse these threads/engage in yume communities but maybe i should.if you don't mind me throwing my two cents in about >>58274128>It isn't goodbye forever, right? I can always come back?given Pokemon + Red have played a major role in your life thus far, trust that your connection to them will never truly fade. for me it's kind of like focusing a photo. sometimes the focus will blur completely when other priorities fill the frame, but Red and your SI will always be there - just blurred in the background. you can choose when to bring them into the foreground again, even if it's years from now. and if the professional focus was triggered by a recent change in your life, just wait for the chaos to lapse into monotony and your mind will probably get bored. for me diving back in after a break feels a lot like coming home.>How do you crack the whip on yourself (non-sexually)?i'm not self-employed, but i've been working remotely on the final stretch of my PhD for the last six months and have been absolutely rawdogged with burnout. productivity and self-discipline is still an ongoing issue, but i've managed to figure out that routine + consequences (e.g. weekly self-imposed deadlines) = momentum = motivation, which translates into "shit getting done". most of the time anyway. there's probably no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach though so you'll need to experiment with what works for you. regardless Red would be proud of you for even trying anon.
>>58265402I've had boyfriends before, and can get another one if I wanted to. Getting a boyfriend as a woman isn't difficult, it's finding a good one that's a bit tough. I just feel happier overall when I have a fictional husbando, but desu i've always been a loner (only child, and former weird kid). I have a lot of love to give, and I feel weird giving that to fully grown men. Giving that extra love in the form of dedication to my fictional husbando leaves me feeling more satisfied than I did baking/cooking food or whatever for my college exes. Highschool me was cooking so fucking hard when I refused to date boys at the time because I preferred fictional boys over them and thought they were too immature for me
April Ludgate voice: This is my boyfriend Volo, and this is Volo's boyfriend, Rei
>>58275305high school you is current me lmao. too many irl guys suck shit to be worth the effort, and i've extremely fucking sick of my effort being wasted
>>58275305>Getting a boyfriend as a woman isn't difficultI feel like I've missed out on some vital piece of knowledge or femininity that every other girl has, because I've never had a bf and have no clue how the hell to get one. The idea of getting a bf feels like some impossible dream, so I just cope with husbando fantasies instead.
>>58273359Honestly, it wasn't for the garish red colour he'd be up there. We will see. I wasn't big on Steven back then but I've since changed, for example.
>>58275993no guy has ever come up to you once and tried to flirt with you? I feel the only way thats possible is if you live in an extremely small town, or you never leave your house.I feel like as a woman, it's just naturally easy to get a guy interested in you, at least sexually. I'm sure if you were to make a tinder right now, you'd get matches/dates easy. >>58275906 Tbf I've gone back to my highschool mentality. Now obviously if some miracle guy appeared I might give it a shot, but I want to be in reality and there's no such thing as a perfect human. And i'm too busy with myself to try to tame someone else's grown son to be decent bf/husband material kek especially knowing the odds of all that effort going to some other side woman is high. The stress isn't worth it to me.
>>58273359>>58276227What's his appeal? For me he's easily among the worst men in Sinnoh
which husbandos had their rib removed in order to blow themselves
>>58276282>no guy has ever come up to you once and tried to flirt with you?Nope. I thought that shit only happened on TV, but I'm not a looker to begin with. I'm also a NEET, but even when I was in school or university, nothing of the sort happened. I should try dating apps, but I don't have enough good pictures, and since I live at home I feel like I'd have to tell my family before starting to use any dating apps since they'd wonder why I'm suddenly going out.I'll probably just never experience irl romance and cope with husbandos forever.
>>58276525well desu being a NEET doesnt help with that goal then. Guys didn't really start approaching me (at least in an obvious manner because im autistic) until I went to college and began going outside a bit more. Don't worry you're not missing out on much anyways. I wish I could go back to how it was before I dated guys anyways, life was better off without that blackpill.
>>58266169Are you me? Like some of the other anons here I’m single as well, though like you I see my husbando as a placeholder. I use my husbando to explore the things I’d like in real life, through the safety of fiction. I really want to get married and have a family but I’m a khhv. I’m sure it’s not impossible to find someone compatible as a few of our anons seem to be in happy, stable relationships. There’s an autist out there for everyone.

>>58276736>spoilerI'm in a similar boat. Not khh, but I am a virgin who's never been in a relationship. I desperately want a family but idk how possible that is. I also worry I'm just not compatible with that kind of life, since while I want marriage and kids, there are certain relationship norms that scare me or piss me off. Also my husbandos aren't exactly marriage material, so they're not the best at helping me figure out what I want irl, and I worry I'll end up attracting the wrong type of men (not like I'm attracting any to begin with). I'd probably have just given up on men altogether if it weren't for the fact that I want children.>I’m sure it’s not impossible to find someone compatible as a few of our anons seem to be in happy, stable relationships. There’s an autist out there for everyone.Hoping I find the autist for me, but it feels so daunting. I really need to start doing something though, as I'm only getting older.

[I don't want children and babies disgust me, but I'm not immune to getting off to a breeding kink fic or two when I'm ovulatingBut that said, irl sex is extremely underwhelmingI'm not saying this as someone who has had a ton of sex or ever had a slut phase, although I am a coomer, but as someone who has an ex or two that met my size standards and at the end of the day I find the hassle of another human being not really worth the sexFor those of you who want to breed, I feel bad for youI knew a girl who married her high school sweetheart, both of them were each other's first and last, and she got the baby she wanted so badly but now she's clearly miserable telling me I was smart for only depending on myself and that she wished she'd learned that soonerYikes coming from someone who is entirely dependent on her husband We live in a society where relationships are optional now and when they're optional husbandos will always win overRegardless of how we got here, this is the world we live inI don't think that our grandmothers had it better desu, it's that they had to exist on a constant stream of copium since relationships were not optional for themI've known very very few people in my life who had parents still happily married--emphasis on happilyMen and women are no longer compatible at a base level and we cannot trust each other
