Imagine Hiro godzilla size with his horns fangs, and eyeliner. Then imagine zero two calming him down after ikuno says there is no cure and he has to stay like that for a while imagine him loosing control and it only takes a few head pats from zero two to calm him down

If I’m reading this right, you’re describing a scenario where Hiro’s Klaxo-side gets a little out of control, and Zero Two is the only one able to get him to calm down. Because if so, that’s pretty cute, but instead of head pats, Zero Two touches horns with him.

Hiro and Zero Two get married at the beach from ep 7. They cry (along with everyone else) when they say their vows and by the end of it Futoshi, who’s officiating, is bawling so hard he just goes “just kiss”. Hiro, smooth operator and dork that he is, channels all the things he’s learned from romance books he’s read since coming back on Earth and dips Zero Two down as the cheers double around them.

This is basically the alternate scenario in my head instead of the big grand wedding I wrote about before. I don’t even have anything to add to it, it’s just that good.

Hi! I’m new to your tumblr and just wanted to ask: Do you have any other fan children from squad 13? Or more specifically, Miku and Zorome?

Not really, most of my focus has been on Hiro and Zero Two, but I did have the headcanon that Zorome and Miku would live together and have like 5 dogs. Which isn’t to say I don’t think they’d have kids, but they’d be the last of the Squad to start a family and they’d only have one.

Modern hirotwo teo headcanon: Hiro owns a motercycle and it’s name is strelitzia. He takes zero two on it before and after school, and zero two will put cute stickers on it once in a while and Hiro doesn’t mind

I love this, especially the bit about Zero Two putting stickers on it, but consider this as well:

They buy a run down motorcycle together and spend the next couple years repairing it before going on a summer road trip together.

A lot of people like to think Hiro would be the “chill, responsible” parent but we’re all forgetting homeboy was a mini-Kamina at, like, 8. He’d teach his kids to make grapple hooks with grass strands and egg shells just in case of necessity, I’m sure. Combined with the sweet tooth they probably got from Zero Two, Futoshi’s bakery isn’t a safe place for tarts anymore

I wouldn’t exactly say Hiro is teaching them crazy stuff like that (because honestly, they’d figure it out on their own), but I definitely do see him as being the “fun” parent. Zero Two surprisingly takes to the role of being the rule-setter…which isn’t to say she doesn’t have moments of being the “fun” one. For one thing, she is absolutely the favorite aunt among the rest of the Squad 13 kids. They all agree she’s the most fun.

But with her own children, they all know she’s the boss and when it is and isn’t okay to goof around. If they’re scattered about, she’ll whistle once for dinner, and all of them will be back in the house in minutes. And on the flipside, she’s always the first one any of them go to if they’re upset and need comfort.

Also, yes, no pastry is safe if any of the HiroTwo kids around. They will get it, and you cannot stop them.

HiroTwo?

Here ya go anon. HiroTwo with all of the OTP questions

1. Who is the most affectionate?

I mean, have you seen Zero Two? She will cuddle with her Darling and nothing can stop her

2. Big spoon/Little spoon?

Zero Two is always the little spoon because she always feels safe in Hiro’s arms

3. Most common argument?

Not so much an argument, but Zero Two in general can be very reluctant to talk about how she’s feeling

4. Favorite non-sexual activity?

Writing and drawing picture books is a big one for them

5. Who is most likely to carry the other?

Hiro is more likely to carry her because she frequently wears herself out and then he ends up carrying her to bed

6. What is their favorite feature of their partner’s?

Zero Two loves Hiro’s eyes. They carry so much emotion and no matter what, she always can look in them to see the love he has for her.

For Hiro, he loves her horns. They were the first thing he noticed about her and it’s one of the most important things he shares with her because it means they are the same now.

7. What’s the first thing that changes when they realize they have feelings for the other?

If we look at canon, not much really. They’ve pretty much been in love with each other since they first met.

8. Nicknames? & if so, how did they originate?

I mean, it’s…it’s kind of the name of the show and there’s an entire episode dedicated to it.

9. Who worries the most?

Hiro tends to fret when he notices that there’s something on Zero Two’s mind that she isn’t talking about. Otherwise, nothing really worries them as long as they’re together.

10. Who remembers what the other one always orders at a restaurant?

Zero Two doesn’t really have a consistent order, but Hiro always knows what she’s in the mood for, so he’s good at predicting what she wants.

11. Who tops?

You look at me and try to tell me that Zero Two isn’t the biggest top in all of anime.

In all seriousness though, pre-saurification, Zero Two absolutely tops, but post-saurification? It’s something of a competition and both of them are in it to win

12. Who initiates kisses?

It’s a pretty even thing really. Both of them are very open with their affection for each other.

13. Who reaches for the other’s hand first?

Again, it’s pretty even. It’s pretty instinctual for them to hold onto each other in some way.

14. Who kisses the hardest?

Zero Two is very…aggressive with her affection and Hiro doesn’t mind at all.

15. Who wakes up first?

Hiro’s always been an early riser, and it comes in handy because he loves watching Zero Two sleep since it’s one of the few times she’s entirely at ease

16. Who wants to stay in bed just a little longer?

Zero Two relishes her sleep and not even her Darling is exempt from revenge for waking her up too early

17. Who says I love you first?

Canonically, Hiro is the first one to say it, even if it doesn’t exactly go well…

18. Who leaves little notes in the other’s one lunch? (Bonus: what does it usually say?)

Of the two, Hiro’s the one who cooks more, so it would be him. Most of them are little notes of how much he loves her.

19. Who tells their family/friends about their relationship first?

Not really either of them. They announce it in a pretty grand way by blowing up a giant Klaxosaur.

20. What do their family/friends think of their relationship?

After the initial drama of episodes 12 and 14, Squad 13 is incredibly supportive of their relationship and wants nothing but the best for them.

21. Who is more likely to start dancing with the other?

This gif just kind of says it al

22. Who cooks more/who is better at cooking?

Hiro cooks more and is generally better at cooking, but Zero Two is a master of desserts and no one can beat her when it comes to sweets.

23. Who comes up with cheesy pick up lines?

Hiro found a book of pickup lines hidden deep in a library and Zero Two absolutely loves them. In the long run, Hiro and Zero Two are the ones who reintroduce pickup lines to the world, for better or worse.

24. Who whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear during inappropriate times?

Both of them are a couple of horny pervs and they’ve been caught multiple times giggling with each other during important meetings, and their friends are just “why are you two like this”

25. Who needs more assurance?

Despite everything, Zero Two still has moments of self-consciousness about her horns, but it’s never too difficult for Hiro to cheer her up. Usually just a horn bump is enough

26. What would be their theme song?

Kiss of Death kind of is their theme, so there’s that

27. Who would sing to their child back to sleep?

They both do, but Zero Two takes special pleasure in being able to comfort her children. Hiro always loves watching her sing to the children.

28. What do they do when they’re away from each other?

I honestly don’t really know how to answer this question because their lives revolve around each other so much

29. one headcanon about this OTP that breaks your heart

In the time after they were separated as children, Hiro always felt there was some part of him missing that he couldn’t explain and it was tearing him apart. For Zero Two, she knew what she was missing and no matter what she did she couldn’t fill that hole.

30. one headcanon about this OTP that mends it

In the they-come-home-after-defeating-VIRM AU, they have a giant family full of love and joy.

I saw someone say the Darling anime was really average and dull. I’ve never seen it, only heard of it. I was wondering your opinion on this opinion. And it is more than just a relationship show right?(I know they fight stuff?)

Well, first of all, they’re wrong. Darling in the Franxx is anything but average and dull (for better and worse).

The main thing to keep in mind when watching it is that the show isn’t about the mecha fights. Sure, they’re some of the best mecha fights this side of Gurren Lagann, but the main focus of the show is always going to be on the relationships in Squad 13, and Hiro and Zero Two in particular. 

At the end of the day, the mecha fights are window dressing for one of the best character dramas I’ve seen in years. Some top notch window dressing, but still window dressing.
