Teehee. Rubs my hands together evily

Killer's magic becomes erratic. His SOUL siphons off more, jolting magic that fills the air with an ambience of danger. A singular, red ring for an eyelight will form in his left socket. His body heat shoots up and he now has two moods:

You're gonna fucking die or I'm making a nest and putting you in it and you are not getting out.

When he's in his "You're gonna fucking die" state, it's never towards you- though the danger of existing near him during this is still a bit of a risk (collateral damage, bro is throwing shit).

"I'm making and nest and putting you in it and you are not getting out" is purely an instinctual reaction to danger. A deep, primal, incredibly powerful urge to keep you safe activates during the time where he is, most definitely, at his most dangerous and therefore: you have become the safest person on the planet for that moment.

Dust goes non-verbal and, quite simply, hides when he's not wanting to commit mass-genocide. He'll likely be shaking and fuzzy-headed, but he can recall one prominent thing: You. He wants you to stay with him- and if you don't, he's going to come and find you.

Anyone who stands in his way can and will be mercilessly slaughtered.

Horror during an LV high is... attentive, but lethal. Anyone who he doesn't know close enough that comes into your shared territory is going to have their head crushed in.

He's insanely strong, and I can guarantee you, from the moment he's got you bundled up in blankets with some warm soup, curled around you like a particularly affectionate dog, there is no one that can touch you without facing severe consequences.

( Save for the other boys )

Nightmare with an LV high is a slightly more dangerous, slightly less filtered, slightly more violent Nightmare. Never to you, of course, but he gets pretty jittery, too. Bouncing on his feet or rapidly tapping his distals against something.

Cross doesn't get LV highs anywhere near as frequently, but when he has them, they're always sudden and he acts more sick than anything else. This is a time where if anyone steps on the territory (that isn't someone he knows well enough) he is Fucking Them Up, but otherwise he's going to be all fuzzy-headed and bleary-eyed, reaching out to you like a little kitten.

"... suit yourself."

Bad Sanses Edition!! ( Feel free to ask for others )

Westerntale Killer's smooches aren't often, as romantic and cuddly as he loves to be (cough cough you better catch him before those commitment issues make him flee cough cough), but when they do they're often incredibly romantic and equally as playful as they are soft. He's the type to dip you with almost every kiss he gives. Very sweet. Very gremlin-like. He's also definitely the type to show you off.

Westerntale Dust's smooches are even less frequent. He's not the type to initially kiss you himself- preferring to wait for you to ask. But if he does kiss you by himself, he always asks for permission first. Usually a quiet "kiss?" is uttered before he gently tips your head up into a breath-taking smooch. His kisses are, more often than not, gentle and soft, but the affection they carry steal the breath from your lungs. ( Something he's quite good at- stealing. )

Westerntale Horror's kisses are usually frequent and usually gentle little pecks to your cheeks, forehead, hands, or nose. On the very rare occasion he smooches you on the lips, it's usually quite brief but very, very affectionate. Kind of like a content little nuzzle, essentially. Very comfortable, very affectionate.

Westerntale Nightmare's kisses are usually actually quite nervous. He's a charming, prideful, gremlin of a bastard but he is terribly nervous when someone he genuinely dearly cares about decides they want to smooch him. He gives kisses very affectionately, but not often- and always in private. Expect to see a semblance of a dopey grin on his flushed face afterwards, too.

Heheheheh.

Killer is probably trying to distance himself as much as possible. As soon as you're near him he is out immediately. He's terrified of catching feelings and so desperately doesn't want to have to go through that disappointment. But if you do manage to corner this Houdini somehow, he's going to be a nervous trainwreck. Laughing nervously, sweating, and a red blush forming on his face. If you manage to catch him and corner him, you better keep him or he's going to gap it out of town as quick as possible.

Dust is admittedly likely a lot more comfortable around you, actually. Nervous, sure, but he's beginning to be a whole lot more open to talking about himself with you- as well as getting close to slowly ridding himself of his scarf, poncho, and gloves (leaving his relaxed blouse, pants and shoes as well as his hat). He might start to hang around a lot more, as well as just... looking at you. Adverting his obvious eyelight whenever you two make eye-contact.

Horror is... adorably attached? Flustered, definitely, whenever you compliment him on anything he does for you- which leads us onto our next thing he does: things. For you. A lot of them. That guttering you've been meaning to get to for a while? He's got you. That dusting you haven't done for ages? He's got you. Too tired to cook yourself a meal? He's got you.

Nightmare ups the charm but also ups the distance. He'll come to you less and less, internally concerned with all of these emotions and kind of internally panicking because "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa". Commitment issues? He has 'em. Not as bad as Killer does but uh... he's definitely struggling, pfft. Snatch him and haul him into your life- he'll go willingly enough.

Cross is like. A genuine schoolboy. Flustered and dying whenever you get close to him- stumbling over his words and getting you silly little gifts he thinks you'll like. Invite him over to hang out- he really, really wants to spend time with you.

Killer is cuddly and romantic even before you get past his commitment issues. He wants someone to love and dote on badly, but won't let himself stay around to get attached. Once he's there, though, and you've got him under lock and key, he becomes the most devoted, loyal, loving sonofabitch to ever grace the deserts you live in.

Dust is usually very... hesitant? Out of his depth. Constantly, always asking for your consent before he so much as touches you because he doesn't know where the boundaries are and goddamn he doesn't want to cross them. But he's insanely loyal and will actively threaten anyone that looks at you in a way he doesn't like. He's not a jealous guy- no, that means that he's wishing he was the person meant to make him "jealous." He's possessive, is what he is. Not to the point of being overbearing, but he isn't afraid to show others that he's yours and he is keeping it that way. He also. Stares a lot at you, from afar. You can be in a crowded room and look up and his visible eyelight is locked onto you.

Horror is. Undeniably like a golden retriever. He's fiercely loyal and so very affectionate to the ones he cares about. Usually he's this big intimidating figure but it's heart-warming for all of the old gossip ladies to see him practically melt in your hands. Constantly doing things wherever he can for you- including cooking and getting ingredients where he can.

Nightmare, who also struggles to commit to relationships, is also one of the charming-but-also-struggling-internally-because-I-don't-actually-know-how-to-romance guys. He's doing his best, he swears, and it's evident in the way he's trying to figure you out and learn what your love languages are so he can effectively get across how much he cares. He's also willing to do essentially anything for you- all you have to do is ask.

Cross is nothing short of a devoted lover. He's nowhere near that "prince charming" sort of persona- what, with his rugged clothes and wanted poster slapped almost everywhere for how much crap he's stolen- but that doesn't make him any less loving towards his significant other. He loves to cuddle with you if you'll let him, often leaning on doorways of whatever room you're in and smiling stupidly to himself as he watches you with the more adoration ever seen in someone's gaze.

Cracks knuckles

Right.

Killer and Dust are almost constantly posturing. Expect these two dumbasses to tackle the other if either is getting jealous, often resulting in a play tussel of sorts- even if both are genuinely pissed.

Nightmare is a reasonably needy guy. He's going to try to soak up your attention as much as possible. Luckily Horror is around to haul that dumbass away from you and give you free time.

Please pay attention to Horror. He'll act like he's fine just helping you out mediating with the other boys, but he wants to be coddled dearly.

Cross and Dust are tolerant of each other. They don't fight, but they also don't talk a lot.

Killer is very insecure about his position being with you with the other boys being around, too. Make sure he knows you love him despite all of his chaos.

Dust is going to curl up to you like a cat. During his LV highs, you and Horror (and sometimes even Killer, funnily enough) are the only ones allowed near him. He will burrow under blankets and hold your hand in an inescapable grip.

Cross is going to make cookies for you. A lot. And he and the other boys are going to do all they can to lessen the workload.

Duel-wielder. Most well-known gremlin in the wild west, known for his elusiveness and ability to escape from basically any trap set for him.

Strategic and powerful, Killer is well-known and a point of extreme anger among the upperclass citizens, but all the people in the lower classes adore his charming, cocky attitude and vibe with him well.

He only targets upperclass people, stealing their riches more for shits 'n giggles than genuinely needing the money.

Feel free to ask about him, or any of the AU!
