#acebun

when basil’s dysphoria hits, ace is extremely protective of them

“oi, deuce. you need to beat up ignihyde student b. they misgendered my partner” “ace i don’t do fights anymore” (deuce still threatens to fight the transphobes anyway)

ace likes showing off the practice doodles baz leaves on his arms, but he’s also conscious enough to hide them from crewel

ace is the obnoxiously affectionate boyfriend, constantly teasing and loving his partner. definitely milks out the PDA and is 100% cringe about it

when they’re adults, ace always tries to drop by basil’s job to give them food. he’d like to spend lunch breaks together. baz’s coworkers are used to his presence at this point

below are some tattoos each of them plan to get. the first is one ace suggests as a joke (basil shuts it down because “it’s so damn cheesy even for you, ace”)

the second tattoo is a matching pair they consider. ace would get the lil bunny with the devil horns >:)

the third is a more minimalist set they’d get! except the K and Q are replaced with their initials

ace promises that as soon as he turns 18, or as soon as basil gets their license, he’s getting a tattoo from them asap

onto part 2, ft. acebun, izurook, vilinh, deuju, azuru + bonus vilsun!

part 1 || part 3 || part 4 || part 5

•••

acebun: for Basil, all they felt was familiarity and nostalgia. that curly mop of red hair, that overconfident yet mischievous grin, that signature laugh of his. Basil felt like they were in elementary school all over again, peering over their sketchbook as Little Ace hung out with other Cool Kids. Ace, on the other hand, did not recognize Basil at first, so his initial reaction was “aren’t you a little to young to be a tattoo worker?”. very classy, Ace.

izurook: Rook’s first impression was… interesting. he was like a hunter and Izumi was like a prized prey, wanting nothing more but to “catch” her. well, more so to tease her. Rook found Izumi to be very attractive. Izumi, on the other hand saw Rook as someone she needed to respect, the same way she respected Vil; she saw him more so as a work partner.

vilinh: they both saw each other as a worthy rival in potionology, and had their own reasons as to dislike each other at first. rivals to lovers real

deuju: Juno believed Deuce’s goody boy act was just a façade… and they were somewhat correct. meanwhile Deuce saw Juno initially as a fellow classmate. Deuce earned Juno’s full respect though after the latter saw his tough guy side.

azuru: Azul and Yoru are childhood friends, so their first interaction was long ago. Yoru thought Azul was very cute, and thought he was really cool for being an octomer. Azul thought Yoru was beautiful in the way she danced and in her personality.

ace and basil have known of each other’s existence since childhood, but they never really got to know each other until much later

basil and ace’s older brother actually knew each other quite well, despite being in different years. i hc that ace’s brother was quite the troublemaker as a kid and since basil was often around teachers, helping them with tasks, he saw them a lot and they got to know each other

they actually kept contact as the years went on and remained pretty good friends, though ace never really knew

ace only knew basil pre-transition until they got reintroduced years later. at first he was very shocked that they were the same person as back then because of how much basil changed

young ace only ever really saw basil as a teacher’s pet, while young basil saw ace as a stereotypical jock. needless to say, their paths didn’t cross back then

it’s when basil gets sent to sage island as an apprentice to zhen that they meet ace again. basil recognizes ace immediately while it takes ace awhile to realize who basil was

ace is the one who confesses first to basil. he fell for their wittiness and sense of humour; basil had changed a lot, going from being a shy lil bunny beastman to being a confident lil rabbit

at first, basil thought ace was joking. but after speaking with his older brother, basil soon learns that ace was genuine with his confession, and gives dating him a shot

ace has a little stick-n-poke tattoo of a basil leaf as their relationship progresses, given to him by basil themself. he gets it done on the inside of his pinky. basil has a matching one on their ankle

like bunnies, basil can jump quite high, higher than most humans. when ace discovers this, he insists that they practice basketball with him (at least, guarding the net and trying to block his passes). it becomes one of their main dating activities

much to ace’s chagrin, basil and deuce get along quite well, with the former not being afraid to join the other first year in teasing ace

basil doesn’t go to NRC, but ace has definitely tried to sneak them onto campus before. he’s tried having them transform into bunny form, having zhen bring basil into ramshackle, and more

to clarify: basil temporarily lives on sage island as they are under an apprenticeship of a tattoo shop there. that same tattoo shop is where zhen’s working at. basil admires and shadows zhen. and during the weekends, ace, deuce and some other first years will visit zhen

riddle immediately discovered basil and threatened to collar ace, while grim went to attack them at first sight because they were in bunny form. rip

basil and cater become besties too. cater can’t wait for baz to become a certified tattoo artist and to be able to give him a bunch of cool tatts

during one attempt at bringing bunny basil onto campus, they ended up in the savanaclaw dorm. poor bunny had to hide from the preying eyes of its intimidating members. thankfully misun was there to bail them out (she was visiting leona)

ace 100% tries to show off in front of basil

basil likes drawing tattoo ideas on ace’s body with semi-permanent markers. epel mistakes these for real tattoos and suddenly there’s a rumour going around that ace joined a gang

ace likes teasing basil because of how their ears react; he thinks it’s really cute. his go-to method is calling basil “bazzy wazzy”/“bazzy-chan”

i just realized that basil x ace is basically nick wilde and judy hopps from zootopia this is awful 😭

ace likes to loudly and publicly declare basil as his partner. he’s quite insistent on it. “yeah that’s my partner. they’re taken so back off. they’re in love with me, got it?” etc.

basil likes giving nose/bunny kisses! and ace loves them a lot. he gets very embarrassed about them though; his face goes super red and he’s stuttering and yelling but deep down, he’d die before he’d ask basil to stop

basil is shorter and much tinier than ace. ace likes giving them piggy back rides + swinging them in his arms

they’re that couple who you’d probably see making out in the hallways ngl. fortunately for everyone basil doesn’t go to NRC

basil “i made you a friendship bracelet. you don’t have to wear it if you don’t want to” to ace’s “no back off i’m keeping it forever”

ace 100% asked basil to wear a bunny suit once. he got a cauldron thrown at him (thanks to deuce)

ace 100% shows off basil on his magicam account too. he’s either filming them at their apprenticeship or taking tons of pics

ace is basil’s hypeman and #1 fan. he really loves basil and hopes their relationship doesn’t end like his last one

@involuntarydiaphragmspasm​ wanted ace and perry and who am I to keep that from them
