im gonna forget about this later but, just finished reading mother of learning (yes I binged most of it in a weekend yes I have a problem) and like.
trans woman zorian. Just, big woman vibes for some reason. no idea when he'd figure it out given he didn't in the entire time loop, but I'm also not convinced about his level of emotional intelligence.
I think she would begin the transition after fully planning it out, and everything would move very quickly because she doesn't know how not to overachieve. I think Zach would start to have a crush on her. I think she would come out as a lesbian.
The energy I think between these two is the 'straight' boy who's going to figure out he's bi in a few more years of actual puberty and by then it'll be too late to date Zorian, and queer trans girl who's as uninterested in dating as she ever was and only learnt to kiss girls when she was one. between the two of them they've turned pretty much everyone at the academy gay.
anyway those are my thoughts.

so I'm playing assassin's creed odyssey for the first time, completely blind, and I just finished the hungry gods quest, which involves finding a bandit hideout behind a shrine. So I go in, kill all the bandits, only die once to Talos sneaking up on me, and then I head out and get a scene with a woman praying to Hermes, and Kasandra can choose between pretending to be Hermes or saying nothing.
I'm like, my girl kass is the bluntest mf on this island, she's not gonna let this woman continue to believe in Hermes doing shit to help her. But I accidentally press on one of the options, so that's what she does, and I get a quest marker to help this woman out etc.
But I'm like, hmm but ooc, so I load an autosave, but the only one that works is halfway through the battle, so I have to refill these guys, and apparently the game hates me so it spawns Talos right where I appear?? I nope out of there, but then manage to kill Talos, leveling me up to level 5 and giving me access to some of the dlc armour I haven't been able to use. I now look badass as hell. But when I go back through the cave, I don't say anything to the praying woman this time, and now I don't have the quest marker and the woman's last words were like 'im gonna do something real fucked up'
so I think I accidentally diverged the timeline and I don't know if I'm in the bad version yet???

I just think Wei Wuxian should get to be a little bit evil, a little bit mad genius. goes round cackling and telling mean stories about the things he's done and the people he's killed, like this dude is a mass murderer and you bet he's never regretted it. wears his supervillain outfit down to the pub and sits in a spooky corner and pretends to be dark and brooding. pretends he's a ghost to kids that wander by. hangs people up to dry when he sees them being shitty to others. boi has been slenderman for the last decade and a half, you bet kids had nightmares about him growing up. I just think he should be allowed to be evil and the villain and have fun with it, and I also think it's really funny that Lan Wangji keeps trailing behind him like 'thems the breaks pal' whenever anybody tries to get him to do anything cause this man didn't go supervillain with him the first time and it sucked, so if he has to also be a bit evil this time round to keep Wei Wuxian in his life, then there are much worse things. and also it's kinda hot.

watching the current wilbur stream and like, i’m having a great time here, but everytime they hold up that radio i like, lose all suspension of disbelief. like, you’re just rotating through radio stations? that’s why you hear music and voices between the static? that’s what happens when you try to tune into a radio station on an analog device. british radio stations are from 87.5 to 108 which seems to be the only range the the device does. every time it turns on it says fm. is this really how most ghost hunting goes? how does anyone believe it, or does everyone just pretend to? because that’s a lot more fun.

oh, but i do like the idea that techno only has one life. it means he actually has motivation for not dying, you know? like of course he wasn’t just going to let himself be executed, he would’ve died for real. it means he goes into every battle knowing it could be his last, rather than just entering every battle far more powerful than literally anyone else fighting because he’s got two more lives to lose. or something.
also the three lives system is dumb as shit and never should’ve been established. all good moments surrounding character death has involved characters who are already on one life. they already only die when the narrative calls for it, so just do that once rather than thrice, and have grevious injuries instead.

Spinning Stories
Alright everyone! Welcome to Spinning Stories, a collaborative writing game where I write a story start and you all get to continue it! Think of this as a game of ‘yes, and’!
I’ll post my story start later tonight for you all, and then it’s out there, you can add onto it how you like! I’m not going to dictate a writing order because that would be detrimental to what I’m trying to do. If you’d like to participate and you find part of the story, feel free to add on!
I know for those who have played fic telephone typically we add on to the last part of the story, but that doesn’t have to be the same thing we do here, you can just pick up on whatever chunk of story you happen to like best or come upon first! I want to see how different story threads develop!!!
Also, if you’d like to play along and write your own story start, tag me and I’m more than happy to write something for it!
If you have any questions or would like some clarification please feel free to ask, I’m more than happy to answer as best I can!
I really think this is going to be fun! I honestly cannot wait! Happy writing!!! <3

So, I’ve been thinking about trying something.
Most of you probably know I write fic, and you might have heard of a fic writing game called Fic Telephone that NWA has run several times. But if you haven’t, I’ll explain. Fic Telephone is a collaborative writing game wherein several people in a group all write a couple hindered words for a story start and then pass all the story starts around in a circle, each person adding a couple hundred words before passing it on, until it reaches the original author again to finish.
I’ve also run this as an original writing game with my DND group.
But I was thinking I might try to do it here as well. It’ll have to be a bit different of course, but I think it might be fun to write a story start and then release it out to you guys to continue.
I’d have to come up with a new name for it, but would some of y’all be interested in doing this??? If I get a few yeses I’ll start writing tonight

Fanon vs. Canon #2: Quirkless people face heavy discrimination
The second of these posts , first post is here.
This fandom interpretation pops up more frequently with Izuku than it does with Toshinori, but I don’t care, I’m going to write about it anyway. This concept is exactly what it says on the tin: that the phenomenon of Quirklessness is a black mark on a person’s reputation. It ranges from “people make fun of them” to ���Quirkless people are abandoned by their parents and randomly murdered on the street.” With Toshinori, it’s often used to formulate backstories about his childhood: he was abandoned as a child for being Quirkless, or had to struggle through heavy discrimination, making Nana’s decision to give him One For All even more meaningful. It’s also used in All-Might-critical works to make him give up on Izuku (so that Izuku can go become a cool vigilante or villain out of spite, or so that some other character can swoop in and play mentor).
You only have to watch the first episode to understand why this idea exists. Izuku’s Quirklessness is devastating to him. His mother cries and tells him “I’m sorry” over it. He is bullied and mocked and told that he can’t achieve his dreams. It’s easy to look at this and conclude that Quirklessness is a terrible, tragic curse.
But... let’s consider the circumstances first. Izuku’s life goal is to be a hero. And in this series, “hero” is a job position, one that specifically exists to allow people to use Quirks freely. Of course Quirklessness would be a catastrophic handicap in a Quirk-fueled profession.
Imagine a basketball anime where the protagonist is 4’2” but still dreams of joining the top ranked high school basketball team in the nation. Of course his height would be a horrible setback for him. But it would be a huge stretch to decide, just based on watching the basketball tryout episodes, that anyone in their society shorter than 5’11” probably ends up homeless or murdered in back alleys. Quirks may be vital for hero school... but that doesn’t mean they’re vital everywhere.
For example, in the anime, a lot of characters get little intro sequences that briefly showcase their name and their Quirk. At first, this seems to reinforce the idea that this world thinks Quirks are the most important thing about a person. But notice who gets these special intros. As far as I’ve noticed, only heroes or hero students get them. Other characters, even recurring ones like Tsukauchi the police detective, do not get this kind of attention. It’s only done for heroes and aspiring heroes because heroes are the only group that are defined by their Quirks.
So how does the rest of the world handle Quirklessness? First off, we learn right away that a full 20% of the population is Quirkless. That’s huge. That’s every one in five people! Even if it’s heavily skewed towards the older population, it’s still an enormous percentage. And in the past, the Quirkless population was even larger. This is not an uncommon phenomenon whatsoever. Every person in this society most likely knows a Quirkless person personally.
Of course, it’s very possible to discriminate against a large population. But does the worldbuilding seem to suggest this happens? It actually seems to suggest the opposite. One of the key conflicts in this story is that its society really doesn’t handle people with Quirks very well.
In the world of My Hero Academia, the government responded to the chaos of Quirks by banning public quirk usage entirely. This extends to workplaces: people are not allowed to use their Quirks to help make money, which is why Ochaco is attending U.A. instead of helping her parents revolutionize the construction industry. This puts a huge dent in the common idea that being Quirkless hurts a person’s job prospects: having a Quirk wouldn’t improve a person’s job performance, since nobody is allowed to use them anyway. In fact, having a Quirk could be a downside! Companies don’t have to worry (as much) about Quirkless people accidentally setting chairs on fire or being unable to fit through doors. Being Quirkless would actually be a benefit.
This extends to things like housing as well. Vigilantes is especially direct in addressing these sorts of inequalities, like it does in these panels from chapter 37:
Quirks are only about 200 years old, and society still doesn’t seem to have the tools to handle them. It seems to have responded by trying to suppress Quirks as much as possible. If you can’t do so, then you are often forced to the fringes of society. This is the main conflict fueling many of the members of the League of Villains, and the entire Meta Liberation Army. In this society, the ability to act Quirk-free is the ideal.
The differences between people, and the conflict that differences cause, is brought up over and over in this series as it explores why certain people are ostracized by society and what happens when their suffering goes unaddressed. If Quirkless people really faced discrimination, it would only make sense for the story to use them as prime examples of this! But it never does, not even in passing.
The most striking example of this occurs in the 3rd My Hero Academia movie, where a terrorist organization tries to use a bioweapon to eliminate all people with Quirks, leaving only the Quirkless. The story tells us several things indirectly. First: if Quirklessness were oppressed, it would make sense for this Quirkless-glorifying organization to use this angle in order to attract members: rise up against your oppressors! But Humarise doesn’t do this. It just uses a lackluster pseudo-religious argument that Quirks are a ��disease.”
Second: if Quirkless people were really a despised underclass, don’t you think these threats would have caused a huge backlash towards the general Quirkless population? Izuku and Toshinori, being former Quirkless people, should have been aware and worried about this, if it were an issue. But we see no animosity like this whatsoever. Not the reaction you’d expect if there was some kind of divide between Quirked and Quirkless people.
One last note on the worldbuilding: Quirklessness is naturally getting rarer and rarer every generation. It seems like a huge waste of effort to try and systematically oppress Quirkless people out of existence when they’re disappearing just fine on their own.
So, based on the way the story is set up, it seems unlikely that there are systemic issues that cause Quirkless people to have a disadvantage in society. In fact, Quirkless people may have a leg up in many areas. But how about the way that individual Quirkless people are treated by others?
We’ve already seen that Izuku’s struggles in the beginning of the show are largely because he’s trying to get into a profession that is not made for him. Once he gets a Quirk, he has remarkably few lingering issues about his prior Quirklessness. The only time we see it affect him is during the Sports Festival, when he is discouraged by his failure to live up to All Might’s expectations and briefly wonders whether One For All would be better off with someone more skilled who can combine their existing Quirk with its power. But this is resolved within a single conversation, and to my knowledge, Izuku never shows this kind of self-doubt again.
The most striking thing is how Katsuki, bully extraordinaire, reacts to Izuku over the series. He is enraged when the “Quirkless” Izuku begins showing off superpowers... but it’s all because it threatens his superiority complex. And later, in chapter 117, when he puts the pieces together that Izuku got a Quirk from All Might... it might just be my interpretation, but he doesn’t seem to react the way one would expect if Quirklessness was a huge mark of inferiority. He barely brings it up, and is mostly just self-centered and guilty about All Might’s downfall. The whole fight is him trying to understand why Izuku deserved this power, rather than trying to assert that he doesn’t deserve it in the first place.
And after this fight, Katsuki seems to accept Izuku’s borrowed power as legitimate. He faithfully keeps Izuku’s secret and there’s no talk about anything like Izuku not deserving it.
Later, when Quirklessness becomes a plot point in explaining why Izuku can wield One For All without shortening his lifespan, none of the vestiges express much wonder about Quirklessness itself; they don’t say anything like “to think that such a despised condition would have such a fortuitous upside...” It’s just treated as an interesting oddity.
There are (spoilers ahead for anime-only viewers) three other confirmed born-Quirkless people in the main series so far: Toshinori Yagi, Melissa Shield, and Yuga Aoyama. With Toshinori, we don’t learn much about his experience being Quirkless, just that the world was in turmoil during his childhood and he felt compelled to make a difference. He doesn’t talk about what it felt like to be Quirkless, because trying to get personal feelings out of him is like pulling teeth.
He does tell Izuku that Izuku can’t “become a hero like All Might” without a Quirk... because of course he can’t. All Might can’t be a hero like All Might without a Quirk; no support items could possibly bridge that gap. Otherwise, he doesn’t give any overtly negative opinions on Quirkless people throughout the course of the story and is overall pretty cryptic.
Melissa Shield, on the other hand, has a whole mini-comic all about her Quirklessness. Here’s how her peers behave towards her:
Far from the witch-burning hatred we see in fanfic. They’re friendly with her, they’re trying to include her. The main thing she struggles with is not overt prejudice, but a feeling of being different. (And again... she is probably not as alone as she feels. Remember that 20% number.)
But luckily, during the comic, All Might teaches her that you don’t need a Quirk to be someone’s hero, and her dejection lifts. By the time we see her grown-up in the movie, she seems happy and well-adjusted, and discloses her Quirklessness voluntarily without any apparent distress. She even seems confused when Izuku expresses pity towards her. She’s in a prestigious academy, studying to be a scientist, and there are no signs that her Quirklessness is hindering her goals.
Aoyama has a less clear picture of his childhood, but like Melissa, there were no indications of bullying or oppression, only a fear of being different. It wasn’t even him who felt this fear the strongest... it was his parents, who entered into a deal with the devil to grant him a Quirk so he could be more like everyone else. Did they do this because Quirkless people are shameful pariahs in this society and they wanted to protect him, or because they were vain and wanted to keep up with the Joneses by making sure their kid was as flashy as everyone else, even if it meant consorting with crime lords? Maybe it was a little of both. We may never know for sure.
The takeaway from this is that none of these characters show any direct indication of oppression because of their Quirklessness. They suffer from a fear of being different... but “being different” is not something unique to Quirkless people. People with inconvenient Quirks are shown to suffer much more because of their Quirks than we see any of the Quirkless characters suffer for being ordinary.
In conclusion: both from the worldbuilding and from individual histories, there’s not a lot of support for the idea that Quirkless people face societal difficulties, or are considered lower-class, except perhaps in the context of a hero school. They might feel left out and different, but that’s a far cry from being randomly targeted for hate crimes.
Even if there’s little canonical backing, it makes sense why Quirkless discrimination would still be an intriguing concept to explore. It’s always poignant to explore the story of someone who lacks the thing everyone else has. Plus, the distinct lack of canon coverage leaves plenty of opportunity for fandom to fill in the unexplored possibilities. But according to the official story, the condition of Quirklessness seems about on par with being born short in a world where some kids want to grow up to be basketball stars.
Once again... I'm not some kind of expert, I forget basics about the show all the time. I'd love to hear your rebuttals or additions on the topic. And fanfic is valuable and fun because it explores topics in a different way than canon does.
(Thanks to @journalxxx for lots of help and input on this post)
#bnha#ohhh yes. exactly this#I've been thinking it for years and you put it into words so well#this is why its so hard for me to read fanfic recently
