#mezo

I feel like people forget about how observant he is, he keeps track of everyone’s progress and personality traits so well. Since he quite has literally nothing in his room, he ponders a lot. (This hc was inspired by season 3 ep1, the class is at the pool and he recognized and stated “it looks like you’ve been working out” to ojiro, which is proof that he does care about his peer’s health and wellbeing, obviously cuz he’s super nice and can do nothing wrong but sigh oh well…) this naturally impacts you guys’s relationship, in a positive way, especially since Mezo is super emotionally intelligent/mature.

When you guys go out to eat, if you insist on paying before or during the meal, he excuses himself to go the bathroom but in reality he’s paying for it.

Shoji will quite literally do anything you ask, literally the embodiment of “your wish is my command”. Even if it’s cleaning your toenails, he’ll do for your sake. But this man knows how to establish boundaries, so do not be fooled, merely only because he loves you and will do anything in his power to be your gentleman. Ok now thinking about… cleaning your damn toenails is dedication, Mayhaps at certain points he makes a compromise. Imagine, if you ask him to do a next level, impossible quest/favor, Mezo thinks about it at first and then decides to pivot. Not reluctantly, but warily devoted; loyal/dedicated but he’s also cautious. He decides to make a come back of “Well if I’m doing this, may I get a back massage in return?” his dorky smile comes across his face, in hopes of you accepting the offering with his twist. Stifling back moans to hell and back cuz I jus KNOW that there arms on each side is not for the weak, plus the amount of work he puts in working out and fighting a bunch of people is hard ass work. Majority of the time he’s pretty stiff at times, maybe not sore since he is a hero and I bet he has been taught to properly exercise but regardless of all the precautions before doing such prestigious work, he’s bound to have some semblance of joint pain and overexerted muscle strain. So having that back massage is doing the lord work in shojis eyes, the feeling of your hands going at it through all the knots around his shoulder blades is actually a ticket to see heaven’s gates.

At some point Mezo is gonna take his mask off, when he does he’s pleasantly taken aback when you have a positive reaction. He really appreciates the trueness of your heart and moral, thanking you for the fact that you never judged him by his cover and what’s underneath. Don’t be scared to ask questions or say silly remarks, in fact he encourages you to do so. (This is seen season 7 episode 14 [essentially shoji’s ep] and Mezo was explaining his backstory, he said that he doesn’t want the topic and its controversy of heteromorph abuse to be taboo. He wants an open discussion, as he is also into that stuff, but he has high emotional intelligence to not let get to him too much)

This is lowkey more personal/oddly specific headcanon, so skip it if youd like. Anyhow, Imagine Mezo watching MoistCritikal before going to bed; ready to sleep, on your phone, cuddling and wrapping his arms around you, perhaps your fidgeting with his webs as well. He sometimes comments on what charlie reviews, especially if it’s like criminal and police webcams. Mezo might be the most gentlemanly people ever but he is still so blunt and real, that’s why he also likes Charlie cuz he don’t beat around the bush but also when he analyzes situations, most times his opinion is actually so valid and logical/justifiable. Mezo pretty much 80% of the time agrees with moisty.

When you react to him, and the result of nuzzling into his chest, his arms tighten around while softly chucking as your cuteness. His phrase that he says most of the time is “my silly girl…” Mezo most of the time murmurs into your hair, reaching his hand to your scalp to lightly to give it soft scritches.

His hands are always touching you, physical touch and acts of service is his shit, his jam.

Since Mezo is hella minimalist then he would do more quality time type of things during hangouts of if he plans out a birthday or sum- I’ll dote on this idea in my next hcs (hopefully around Christmas)

If you call Mezo your husband before getting married, composed on the outside but good god if you saw that heart rate number you’d actually would think he’d be dropping like a rag doll on the floor in a minute. He is so attentive with everything that you say, no matter how interesting or boring the subject he’s always having at least one more ear to listen to “your beautiful voice.” As he likes to call it, but the mix between Mellifluous voice of yours and the thought of you guys getting married (assumed to be pretimeskip ig?) makes him ecstatic. Produces more reasons to love you even more than before. Mezo ponders a lot like I’ve mentioned before cuz he quite literally does barely nothing besides eat, sleep, work out, go to school and do homework + hanging out with friends. If you have seen his room IT HAS NOTHING😭😭 but it creates even more of a reason as to why he loves you so much since he is very simple to accommodate and please. So something like “ohhh here comes my beautiful husband walking through the door, what a sight” surprises Mezo cuz quite frankly, everyone has always been scared or thought weird of his appearance (like season 5 ep 8 where Tori was saying how she didn’t like octopuses and shoji responded to the statement with “I’m used to that” like omg noooo🥺🥺 but anyway) Mezo thinks the world of you for the nickname/label, because he really does want to spend the rest of his time with you. He is a very simple man, (this is also seen when shojis dream is just to walk with the person who he saved a whole while ago, that just screams how he’s every simple to please and doesn’t take advantage of anything in a bad sense)
