Odd request but can I please get a headcannon for Shino with a s/o who’s scared of bugs? I’ve always been curious on how that’d play out.. thank you!❤️
■ He is rather discouraged at first because he’s unsure of how a relationship can really work between the two of you with you being afraid of bugs. Since it’s not something he can avoid or just get rid of because he will always have his beetles on him.
■ The only option he’ll see is getting you to overcome your fear of bugs not even of every bug just his beetles at least. He just needs you to be able to be around him and not afraid of him or his beetles, if you still have a fear of other bugs like spiders or centipedes, he will take care of them for you.
■ Though he can go out of his way to keep his beetles or other bugs away from you, after all generally looking at him he doesn’t have insects visible on him and often times you won’t see insects on or around him aside from battle or when he’s working on his techniques or hobbies.
■ He doesn’t expect you to conquer your fear all in one day either he will be very patient with you and help you to overcome your fear, trying to desensitize you to his beetles and teach you about them in hopes of trying to calm your fear.
■ Does whatever he can to help you and to help you to overcome your fear because he does want to be with you. Though he can be very hesitant to get close to you or affectionate with you, unless you instigate things first because he worries that he makes you uncomfortable.
■ As long as he knows you love him, he will do whatever he can to make the relationship work even if that means taking the relationship slowly and constantly working on improving things and overcoming your fear.
