/mai/ - Waifu★

>>54643 (OP)

>I sort of miss some explanation like the "What is a Waifu?" one but about daughterus. I've found /mai/ just recently and heard here about daughteru for the first time and just found it…well, odd (not in a bad meaning though, I just wouldn't make a daughteru myself and the idea never even occured to me)

I wouldn't call it "making" a daughteru in my case, unless you'd call it "making" your waifu.

>I believe that in case of waifu the "finding each other" feeling is mutual, but what about daughteru?

It's sorta the same.

>Do you just decide "I'd like this character to be my daughter" or is there some deeper mutual feeling?

I found Samantha to be my daughteru based on the protective feelings I developed for her, and from the joy I started to feel from seeing her smile and succeed.

>Do you see them like "children you have with your waifu" or "children you adopted with your waifu" or something else and imagine you all like a family?

I adopted my daughteru before I found my waifu.

>How did your waifu react to getting a daughteru?

It was the other way around, actually. When she found out I liked Arturia, she was very strongly pushing me to spend more time with her. They didn't really get along at first -- Arturia's more strict with her than I am – but we're becoming happier and happier to be all together every day.

>What if the daughteru's and the waifu's source materials are too different, do you "merge" them somehow in your headcanon or do you "take them out" of their official cannons completely?

A basic rundown of my headcanon:

>time-shifted they bleed pixels universe

>samantha was abandoned by parents after another incident with her cursed book

>find her after she manages to de-transform herself

>adopt her

>arturia is mostly divorced from her source

>How do you spend time with them?

Playing video games, singing songs, and cooking macaroni and cheese.

Did you want a kid before you found a daughteru and/or did finding a daughteru make you want to be a parent ?

Does having a daughteru effect your desire to be a parent at all ?

>>54683

To be fair, some people "make" OC daughterus when they already have a waifu. I suppose I forgot that possibility as well.

>Have you heard about the term daughteru before founding Samantha?

If I'd heard the term "daughteru" it was mentioned in passing. I was surprised to hear that daughteruism is a thing, albeit not as widespread as waifuism.

>Did it take long to realize what kind of feelings you hold for her and adopt her?

It took a few months for me to realize just how much she meant to me.

>>54693

>Did you want a kid before you found a daughteru and/or did finding a daughteru make you want to be a parent?

I was pretty against the idea of having children, particularly biologically due to some defects that I might pass on to them.

>Does having a daughteru effect your desire to be a parent at all?

I want to watch my little Samantha blossom into a beautiful person. I've longed to guide her since the day I adopted her.

>>54973

My parental feelings for Samantha brought on my fatherhood of her. I met her well before I met my waifu.

As I played They Bleed Pixels, I found myself thinking more about her, empathizing with her, observing parallels with my own life. This gave rise to my desire to see her succeed, and from that my desire to help her along that path. I was worried that if I didn't guide her, she wouldn't get the help she needs.

My waifu, Arturia, entered my life some time after Samantha did. She's taken on the role of mother -- something for which I'm eternally grateful. Things were rough between them for a while, but it's been uphill since. Today, they get along fantastically.

>I believe that in case of waifu the "finding each other" feeling is mutual, but what about daughteru?

Quite the same, really, only it's more on your side than theirs.

>Do you just decide "I'd like this character to be my daughter" or is there some deeper mutual feeling?

I started to see Chaika in a very fatherly way after fully watching Hitsugi no Chaika. I realized how weak in a normal life she is due to her lack of a meaningful upbringing. I wanted, and will always want, to fix this and see her live a happy life.

>Do you see them like "children you have with your waifu" or "children you adopted with your waifu" or something else and imagine you all like a family?

Adopted, for sure. She's almost my age! That said, I do see Hikage doing well with her.

>How did your waifu react to getting a daughteru?

She was indifferent for a time, given she didn't quite understand, but she seems to be enjoying it now.

>What if the daughteru's and the waifu's source materials are too different, do you "merge" them somehow in your headcannon or do you "take them out" of their official cannons completely?

Considering Chaika is in love by the end of the show, I have to separate my daughter from her canon. I don't really separate Hikage too much from her canon, though, because she's already pretty free due to her occupation as a renegade shinobi.

>How do you spend time with them?

I play Senran Kagura games, occasionally watch an episode of Hitsugi no Chaika, and generally shitpost with them on live chats.

Fuck it. Might as well post.

>I believe that in case of waifu the "finding each other" feeling is mutual, but what about daughteru?

Works pretty similarly.

>Do you just decide "I'd like this character to be my daughter" or is there some deeper mutual feeling?

Geraldine just kinda unlocked the inner father in me. i never went in to her anime thinking i'd get a daughteru out of it. i found many of the younger children in GJ-Bu cute but none gave me the same feeling of parental "i want to protect her" as Geraldine.

>Do you see them like "children you have with your waifu" or "children you adopted with your waifu" or something else and imagine you all like a family?

Adopted. I doubt Rozen maidens could naturally have kids as their no evidence supporting this so im assuming it isnt possible.

>How did your waifu react to getting a daughteru?

well she was naturally shocked at first and confused.she wasnt sure on the whole kids thing at first either like me, but we got around that and we love Kiara and Geraldine as if they were our own.

>What if the daughteru's and the waifu's source materials are too different, do you "merge" them somehow in your headcannon or do you "take them out" of their official cannons completely?

There is no real issue with this. GJ-Bu and Rozen Maiden both take place in the real world and could easily be mixed with the only discrepancy being art style.

>How do you spend time with them?

play vidya, watch t.v and movies. mostly just let Kiara and Geraldine enjoy each others company.

>If you have more daughterus how did your family grow?

I was originally only planning to take Geraldine but then i remembered her sister and i didn't like the idea of separating them so i adopted her too.

>Have you heard about the term daughteru before founding Samantha? Did it take long to realize what kind of feelings you hold for her and adopt her?

yeah. heard it here.not really.it was one of those i know when i feel it things that clicked in me.

>Did you want a kid before you found a daughteru and/or did finding a daughteru make you want to be a parent?

No. i was very opposed to having kids.

>Does having a daughteru effect your desire to be a parent at all?

Well im not really interested in having any more kittens after these two. seeing these two become beautiful women when there older is good enough for me(chasing away guys is already going to be a chore).

>How would you who have daughterus say your expanded famiry thing came about, did it happen because of parental feelings for her or because you wanted to have a child with your waifu?

parental feelings.

>Also how does this affect your relationship with your waifu, I mean do you think they get along or are they separate from each other?

There fine. There was some hesitation on Gin's part since she never reallly saw herself as the motherly type but now there doing really well.

>Considering Chaika is in love by the end of the show, I have to separate my daughter from her canon.

I feel like I should clarify, since this sounds kind of odd.

I don't consider myself extremely strict, but I don't like the idea that she's dating so soon before she's reached emotional maturity. She needs more life experience before I'll be ok with it.Not to say I don't like Toru, as he is the ideal boyfriend for her in my mind, but I'm not ready for that.

>When you are damn close to being Venom Snakes brother in law

200% Okay with this

Also most Hanakobro's are cool, so thats good, not met any that don't seem like good guys who would treat her right

Mashiro is not getting into any relationships anytime soon and FUCK whatsherface

>I believe that in case of waifu the "finding each other" feeling is mutual, but what about daughteru?

It was the same for me, except instead of "loving" feeling like my husbando gave me, it was "parental" feeling

>Do you just decide "I'd like this character to be my daughter" or is there some deeper mutual feeling?

It was a deeper feeling. but I did have a moment of "this is him, this is my sonfu"

>Do you see them like "children you have with your waifu" or "children you adopted with your waifu" or something else and imagine you all like a family?

adopted

>How did your waifu react to getting a daughteru?

at first he was a bit nervous, but once he started interacting with Yuya he opened up

>What if the daughteru's and the waifu's source materials are too different, do you "merge" them somehow in your headcannon or do you "take them out" of their official cannons completely?

There's no through explanation on how time moves in the YGO universe, but I headcanon this:

>timeshifted YGO universe

>pendulum summons/ect all from Miami City kinda close to Domino City and Miami City's tech isn't known to Kaiba

>cities become aware of each other

>we adopt Yuya due to his father being missing and his mom not really seeming like she values him that much (for example giving Yuya's breakfast to another kid because she thought the kid was cute)

>How do you spend time with them?

singing, dueling, cooking, and playing games

>>56855

> I see quite a few waifuists with other 2D family members (imoutos, onees, ect) are these similar to daughterus? Do they click in a similar way?

I can't speak for everyone, but for me personally the answer is yes to both of those questions. With my daughterus I felt parental love and wanted to take care of them, whereas with my oneefu I felt a love between siblings and looked up to her like an older sister. The type of love and how I view them is different, but the process is the same.

>>56855

It's somewhat similar, but also different in several key aspects for me. Whereas with mashiro its very paternal, wouldn't want to see her with anyone, would get angry at her being sexualized, and just want to protect her but wouldn't want her taking care of me

with onee's its less of a "I want to take care of her" and more of a "we would take care of eachother" sort of relationship. There's also the fact that my onee's are a bit older, so onee rather than imouto. them being lewded doesn't bother me either, as they are adults and would do that sort of thing, but there's no interest in that either, so feelings for them are very platonic. Quiet I also see as a bit older, and I do imagine her being more of a protector of me rather than me of her for the most part, where Hanako is kindof equal ground.

with both onee's and my daughteru however, they all give me that very distinct fuzzy feeling in my heart when i think about them.

Waifu nomenclature is weird. I can see why people would want words to describe exactly how they feel, but "waifu" has always been enough for me.

A lot that is because my feelings about Midousuji are complicated enough to not fit any one existing term. He's attractive to me, and I mostly think of him as "an equal", but at the same time it would be almost impossible to get close to him without becoming some kind of surrogate parent. In canon, obvious parallels are drawn between the protagonist and Midousuji's late mother, and Ishigaki's dad-senpai role is the only father figure Midousuji has ever had in the first place (dad has never been mentioned so I assume he's never been a part of his life). He's incredibly immature and, on top of that, incredibly resistant to change; I can't imagine anyone entering a normal romantic relationship with him without going through a long "therapy" relationship first, and I can't imagine very many people having the perseverence to do that with/for him.

I'd do it, though. It'd be hard, and it'd take a long time for me to establish myself as a reliable person in his life, but I would be anyone and do anything it takes to make him happy. I don't really care what anyone wants to call that.

Lilly and I adopted Butters because he was sad and lonely, also his biological parents were abusive.

>I believe that in case of waifu the "finding each other" feeling is mutual, but what about daughteru?

Sort of. For me it came from wanting two characters that got snubbed in their story to have their own thing.

>Do you just decide "I'd like this character to be my daughter" or is there some deeper mutual feeling?

It wasn't there at first. As I wrote I poured more of myself into them this is sort of why I don't mention them often. They fall way too close to the OC line and from there they came into their own. It wasn't long before I noticed the paternal parallel. There's also issues that arise from this, given the nature of the story and the implications that would have on two girls that in the daughteru context would be sisters. There's also the matter of them being the original creator's self inserts which muddies things even further. You can probably see why I don't typically get into this.

>Do you see them like "children you have with your waifu" or "children you adopted with your waifu" or something else and imagine you all like a family?

I don't have an answer for this. Adoptive doesn't cover it and they have their own parents. I'm their author but that doesn't cover how I feel them and how they feel me. I'm somewhere between adoptive and paternal and ethereal whatever. It's hard for me to articulate what it's like.

>How did your waifu react to getting a daughteru?

Other way around. I had them over a year before I ever met Peko. In short, they're fine with it. I'm sure they don't like seeing me get torn up when the relationship hits some turbulence and they'll show that in their own way. It's not something I think about much.

>What if the daughteru's and the waifu's source materials are too different, do you "merge" them somehow in your headcannon or do you "take them out" of their official cannons completely?

They mesh well enough. There's nothing about them that prevents them from coexisting

>How do you spend time with them?

As of late it's mainly been daydreams and little fantasies in the time when I try to sleep. It used to be actually writing but a very long time has passed since I last did that.

>If you have more daughterus how did your family grow?

They both came about at the same time and the family isn't getting any bigger. Daughterus are something I only understand from my own perspective.

It's taken me awhile to post i guess

I have basically an OC daughteru who I've named Cherry since Sherry is my family's name for girls.

Miia and I wouldn't adopt, we would want to make our own.

I've based her in as much canon as possible, her design is from Miia's family fantasies, and from what I've seen from Lamia genetics or at least Miia's she'll end up looking a lot like her mom. I like to think she would have my eyes, and i think she might have to wear glasses since i need them and Miia wears them sometimes in the manga.

Her personality is a mixture of mine and Miia's, just what i think our daughter would be like if we raised her.

I like to imagine cuddling Miia and Cherry in the morning, Miia would be wrapped around me and snuggled into my neck, and Cherry would be wrapped around one of my free arms and hugging us both.

I think Cherry would pick up my cooking skills, and we would make Miia breakfast in bed on mother's day. It would be nice

The old duaghteru thread disappeared?

I have two daughterus, Ika Musume and Hoto Cocoa.

Even through Ika Musume was my first daughteru I consider Cocoa being the older one of them.

>I believe that in case of waifu the "finding each other" feeling is mutual, but what about daughteru?

I don't think that finding a waifu us mutual.

>Do you just decide "I'd like this character to be my daughter" or is there some deeper mutual feeling?

It's not a choice thing, I just knew that they are the right ones.

>Do you see them like "children you have with your waifu" or "children you adopted with your waifu" or something else and imagine you all like a family?

I see them as our children.

>How did your waifu react to getting a daughteru?

She is their mother.

>What if the daughteru's and the waifu's source materials are too different, do you "merge" them somehow in your headcannon or do you "take them out" of their official cannons completely?

Luka doesn't have a backgrund story.

Ika Musume doesn't have any informations about her parents.

Cocoa has a big sister and a mother that appear in the Manga making it a bit of a problem for me.

>>59450

I am not sure if this is amusing or upsetting.

This is my daighter kiki, I adopted her becuase she is so kind and helpful. Also she's adorable. If I ever have a daughter one day I want her to be like Kiki!

>>59482

I've started getting pictures of Cherry based a lot off of Yotsuba pages,

I helped raise my little sister due to our age difference and I base a lot of Cherry's personality off my sister. Every now and then I'll just see a page from there and just think "Oh ya that's totally something I can see from us" and I want to get it done with Cherry, so i've been working on it.

Next picture getting done is winter themed with Miia getting some winter clothes on and Cherry being bundled up and ready to go
