Oh wow, this blog is so interesting, I absolutely love it! You’re both doing such an awesome job! I was wondering if the guys were to get an ‘owner’ in the Pet AU, how would they act towards them? Also I noticed you mentioned within this AU that there’s a custom of defanging; have any of the guys had their fangs removed? Thanks and I hope you both have a great day :)

Admin Mawile: Σ(ノ°▽°)ノ Thank you!!!

First to answer the de-fanging bit: Subaru has likely lost his for being “dangerous”. He has quite the history of acting out, and to make him supposedly safer to own, his fangs were taken out as a young teen, about the time the outbursts started. Yuuma has his out for similar reasons. When he was in the shelter, his sheer size made him too intimidating for most people to consider adopting, so his fangs were removed to make him seem like less of a threat. Kou’s were removed by his torturers at the shelter, for little reason other than that they found the helplessness and the sight of it appealing. Finally, Shin’s were taken out after a certain incident, to make up for him having been returned once, and to ensure to potential buyers that he was no harm. 

Shuu:

-Much, much less lazy. He’s still lethargic and constantly tired, but the pressure that keeping this new chance at life he’s been given instills is too great to lose. He stays quiet and out of the way, but gains a newfound desire to make himself useful, anything to keep from being sent back. 

Reiji: 

-With a real owner, Reiji becomes, if possible, even more desperate to please. He finally has what he’s been striving for for years, and he’d do anything not to have it taken away. He’s almost overbearing with it, constantly pushing to do something to please his new owner, overly eager to prove his worth. 

Ayato:

-He’s pushy, trying to force his way into their favor in any way he can. Having and owner, being an object of value to a human is the only thing he’s lived for, and he’s desperate to get there. No matter what he has to go through to get there, he has to be important to them. 

Kanato:

-Honestly, he’s terrified. Being someone’s prized possession is what he’s been raised for, but humans have done nothing but cause him pain. He can’t get over the trained fear that any contact from a human means hurt, all he can think about is what horrible things this new person could do to him. 

Laito:

-Laito is surprisingly well behaved. He stays out of trouble more than most of his brothers, and with an owner, he’d be just as good. That perfect behavior comes at a heavy cost to his mental state, but what’s a little more suffering if it can save him from something worse?

Subaru:

-If anyone adopted him, chance are they’re part of an illegal fighting ring, or something equally horrible. Subaru has been deemed unsalable, so bad that no normal owner would ever want him. He’d try, though, if anyone would give him another chance, he’d try so hard to be good this time. 

Ruki:

-Ruki knows how to behave. The only reason he doesn’t have an owner is his status as a a mutt and a stray. In a real home (and if he was sure his brothers were safe), he’d be an excellent pet, quiet, obedient, and willing to suppress his own fear and pain to do what’s expected of him. 

Kou:

-Humans, owners have caused Kou more pain than anything. He can’t even function anymore, what more do they want to take from him? He’s too afraid to hardly be in the same room as them, hysteric with the fear that he’s going to be hurt again, like he was at the shelter. 

Yuuma:

-He genuinely tries to be obedient, to stay out of the way and look harmless, but his size, strength and rough nature make it hard. Humans have never liked how intimidating he is, and if taking out his teeth wasn’t enough to prove he’s safe to own, what would be?

Azusa:

-He’s almost instinctively wary around humans, so used to them wanting him out of their sight it’s almost second nature to hide. He’s slow, but accepting (a little too accepting) of whatever pain and punishment an owner feels necessary, so pliant and obedient it’s more creepy than pleasing. 

Carla: 

-Carla has been literally trained from birth to be the best pet possible. He’s a near perfect example of the right combination of out of the way and eager to please, quiet and inoffensive, yet composed and obedient. If it wasn’t for his illness and the weakness it causes him, he’d be almost the ideal. 

Shin:

-His rebellious days are behind him, okay? He learned his lesson the first time and he’d never be that bad again. He’s well trained and safe now, even with an eye out he’s still pretty and he’d be so good. If an owner took a chance on him again, they’d never regret it.
