Your gateway to endless inspiration
Since a lot of people liked the last post abt actor au here’s the second part of it.
Tenma and Johan have opposed clothing style irl in difference of their clothes during the show; Johan is most likely to use shirts, jeans and t-shirts while Tenma is more likely to use suits and turtleneck sweaters. Like, during an interview, Johan admitted that turtleneck sweaters were uncomfortable because of the hot weather.
Epsilon and Johan are the same person (actor)
Rung (the Vietnamese Doctor) and Tenma are siblings irl
The cross dressing scenes in Prague where mostly performed by Nina’s actress but Johan’s actor was willing to dress as Nina too and he did once or twice mostly the scenes with Suk lmao
The actors ages:
Tenma- 31
Nina and Johan- 25
Eva- 30
Grimmer- 39
Lunge- 50
Rung (the Vietnamese Dr): 26 but she looks really young
Dieter - 11
Suk- 29
Lotte- 26 / Karl- 25
Martin- 36
Tenma would be a Giorgio Armani model
Nina took a lot of clothing from the set because she literally ADORES all the dresses she wore.
Eva is actually redhead but she dyed her hair (I took this idea bc Idk where I read, Eva was supposed to be redhead and I personally love the idea)
Tenma and Johan read together all of the Tenjoh fanfics. Johan is the one actually enjoying and wheezing and Tenma is all uncomfortable and shocked, he’d be like “why would they write that?”
In the other hand Tenma would read the Guriten fanfics and he’d be like so flustered but he’d enjoy it. (He’s the strongest Guriten shipper)
Of course the filming would be placed in Germany and Czech Republic and some moments are placed in France and Poland.
Lunge and Roberto get along really well out of the set, like they’re hanging out and joking around.
Tenma followed a very rigorous and restrictive diet to loose weight to represent the depression more realistically. And of course he grew his hair. Plus, before starting the filming, he didn’t want to grew his hair because he thought he wouldn’t look good, but through the series he discovered he actually loved it long and by the end of the series he stayed with his hair long (and the final scene where he has short hair again he was using a wig)
By the end, Lunge bought a beer for Grimmer (just like they couldn’t do in the series) (coping mechanism)
Grimmer came out as bisexual and a few months later Tenma came out as gay and the whole fandom started to make conjetures because they saw them together a lot of times.
I loved making these, pls tell me if you want me to keep working on this AU and If you have more hcs don’t be shy and share them 🤭
My Roman Empire is that Grimmer didn’t met Nina and Dieter
The way he would care a lot about them, he would’ve been so kind and so sweet to Dieter and he would’ve been so protective and gentle with Nina I’m in tears. And Dieter and Nina would definitely ADORE HIM.
I can picture Grimmer playing soccer with Dieter, struggling while doing his math homework with him and preparing his lunch for school before taking him to the bus stop and I can picture Grimmer being there for Nina in her PTSD episodes because he would understand her better than anyone (obv Tenma would understand too) But Grimmer and Nina went through almost the same hell in their childhood so yeah
Pls someone write a ff or I will do it myself
OH MY GOOOOOOOOD SO BEAUTIFUL 💗💗💗💗
Two gay dads and their precious son
Dieter:*calls Tenma because he had a nightmare*
Tenma: *thinking* “I have to get back before Grimmer realizes I’m not in bed”
Grimmer: *awake and crying* “Tenma? TENMA!”
(Grimmer had a nightmare too)
Grimmer is a Hufflepuff at heart my beloved
Tenma and Johan actors get along extremely well out of the set. Like, they are always hanging out and taking random pictures of each other and posting them on their instagram. And they’re always on interviews together. This is a great contrast to their relationship in the show
During the filming someone who makes the cast laugh the most is, surprisingly, Lunge. Sometimes is on purpose and sometimes his poker face to stay on character makes them laugh.
Grimmer actor made almost zero mistakes during his filming. During the filming he never forgot any of his dialogues. But he did laugh once or twice when he was with Tenma or Lunge
Of course Nina and Johan are twins in real life and their actors when they were little are their cousins. (But their cousins aren’t twins tho)
This was Dieter’s first role and he got along really well with the whole cast. Obviously, specially with Tenma.
Eva actress had a little crush on Tenma but nothing happened between them. They stayed as friends only.
Sometimes when Johan is in public and kids see him, they’re a little bit scared but he smiles and says: “Don’t worry, I promise I’m actually a good guy.”
Dr Reichwein was filming another show at the same time.
Tenma doesn’t have an Stuntman, he decided to record all of his action scenes, including the ones where he gets hit by a car. Lol
Tenma, Nina and Johan have a lot of Vogue covers.
The most difficult scenes to film for Tenma and Johan are the ones where they stare at each other for too long because they both start laughing. The scene in the library where Tenma points at Johan with the gun took almost 40 repetitions because they laughed all the time.
Eva actually hates alcohol so the times she had to be drunk she was actually drinking apple juice because the color was the closest to the whiskey’s
Do you guys think Tenma adopted Dieter? Like, legally, I mean, gave him his surname went to the register of births or something like that to make it official?
I like to think he did.
We seriously don’t talk enough about Dr Reichwein. He was a father to Tenma, Nina and Dieter, he literally adopted the three of them.
I just know they lived together happily at the end.
I mean, Reichwein lived alone before they came to his life, I know Reichwein felt a little bit lonely but at the end I just know he feels happier with them.
He was more of a father to Tenma than his own parents, he was always there when Tenma got arrested. And Reichwein always took care of Nina when she had her PTSD episodes. Plus, the way he cared for Dieter it was so sweet, like a grandpa and grandson 😭
I love thinking of them on Christmas Day, halloween, Easter, their birthdays, Dieter’s first day of school, Dieter’s soccer games, going on vacation.
Stop. Found family is my favorite trope.
Urasawa and his obsession on making us know they were Dieter’s parents.
I got another draw the squad, except its the Bff’s terrorize Ludwig edition.
At first I was wondering, why would Ludwig be crying? but then I decided I would probably cry too if I was being terrorized like this.
I don’t know why I made this, my sibling and me just agreed it would be them, and then I made it. (Beef’s really hard to draw btw)
-bases template under the cut-
This is older and doesn't have much to it, but deet needs some appreciation. Also under his glasses on his sprite is two placement markers that look like eyes, so those are his eyes now.
also, did any of you know that Dieter is an actual German name pronounced Deet-er? Fun!
