League of Villains Halloween Headcannons

Here's what I think each member of the league of villains does for Halloween

Toga

Toga wants to go trick or treating. Or to the candy aisle. Or both! On the way, she ends up stealing buying all the cute halloween pushies and cozy socks she can find.

Dabi

Dabi follows along with Toga, not claiming to enjoy it but also not complaining as much as usual. He likes that everyone in costumes means he gets less looks with his scars. Admittedly, he also likes making up for a lost chunk of childhood eating halloween candy with Toga.

Twice

Twice joined Dabi and Toga, claiming both to keep an eye on them and steal their candy. Instead, he gets distracted by a parking lot corn maze and at least two of his doubles make it out. The league doesn't see him for three days after this.

Shigaraki

Horror movie marathon? Any time of year, but the good ones are more easily accessible around Halloween and he's taking full advantage of that.

Spinner

Spinner joins Tomura for his movie marathon, enjoying the more mild ones. When it gets too scary, he's out - having his own movie day with Hocus Pokus and Beetlejuice instead.

Compress

Arguably the most sociable of the group (that's not saying much,) Compress has at least one acquaintance's parties to stop at. He's by far the best dressed at the party, even if it is what he wears every day.

Kurogiri

Kurogiri is handing out candy to trick or treaters. King sized candy bars and packs of Pokémon cards, they only get a few (brave) kids but he looks forward to it every year.

Here is a glimpse at three of our starring acts on the tour. Just a little insight to who's who and some juicy bits about the band members!

The Vigilantes - Thirty years ago, Lady Midnight, Shota Aizawa, Present Mic (aka Hizashi Yamada), and Oboro Shirakumo founded The Vigilantes. The four teens were still in their first year at UA when the idea struck, and over the next ten years, they built their reputation and accrued a vast, loyal fan base that exploded when their hit single "At Any Cost" gained popularity outside of Japan.

Life at the top wasn't always perfect, though. At the pinnacle of their fame, Oboro was involved in a near fatal car accident, which left him amnesiatic for nearly year. Fortunately, the support of family and friends miraculously unlocked his lost memories and the charismatic drummer was eventually back to his old self.

While The Vigilantes' fame has cooled in recent years, the announcement of the Star Struck music festival fanned the embers and gained the rock stars a whole new generation of new supporters who can't wait to witness the legends perform.

Cremation - The enigmatic vocalist known only as Dabi, along with his best friend and lead guitarist Keigo Takami, launched Cremation when they were in their late teens. With their dark, rebellious sound, they quickly gained a small, dedicated following in the local music scene. They added band mates Jin Bubaigawara, Atsuhiro Sako, and Tomura Shigaraki respectively over the next two years and diversified their sound in a way that kept the attention of old fans while gaining them thousands of new supporters.

The lineup changed slightly a year ago when Atsuhiro left the group to pursue his blossoming acting career. Wild child Himiko Toga took up the vacant bassist position and .proved herself to be the perfect addition to the band, well-known for their "michievous" behavior. All parties stated that they parted on good terms and remain friends.

りんご飴 - The newest act on the tour is the mega-popular, all-girl rock idol group Ringo Ame, featuring Eri, Ochako, Mina, Tsuyu, and Nejire, Their popularity skyrocketed around a year and a half ago when their third single "Midnight Karnival" went viral on TikTok. Their unique candy-goth style rock has made them icons in the world of both music and fashion.

Ringo Ame has close ties to The Vigilantes and EMG, and recent rumors claim that Ochako Uraraka has been seen out and about with Cremation's bassist Himiko Toga. Nothing has been confirmed about their relationship, but there are many fans who would love to see the two pair up.

Sources tell us that the ladies will be performing a few brand new songs during the tour, allowing festival goers the privilege of hearing them before their official release following the Star Struck event.

Okay okay okay! So! I've mentioned before that my BFF and I did a Kickstarter back in April. Yesterday, we got all the rewards packaged, and they were shipped today. I'm so excited by the way everything turned out and wanted to share. The pictures don't do then justice. 💙💙

[kyiratodoroki]

So! Monday was my birthday, and my BFF spoiled me like crazy. We went out for hibachi (scallops OMG) and had super chocolate-y cake. I also got lots of presents, some of which I want to share. She made me some of the cutest things! Prints of Dabi art she's made me amd some super-adorable stickers. The one round sticker is mine and Dabi's ship symbol, which I created... StarFire. 💙💙

Then! Dabi got me the most gorgeous sapphire tennis bracelet! Sapphires are symbolic of loyalty. 💙💙💙💙

[kyiratodoroki]

Dabi mail! So much to catch up on! I have some stuff from last week, which I'll show in this post, and then I have some amazing things to show that my BFF gave me for my birthday. Then I'll share what I'm up to today. 💙💙 For now!

We have three keychains; another spectacular example of that repetitive art stealing my cash. And then again, in the acrylic coaster and block. Finally, two stickers. I especially love that second one!

Another sneak peek into some pre-tour antics!

りんご飴 (Ringo Ame)

"Dad!"

"What?"

Shota and Hizashi poked their heads out from rooms on opposite ends of the upstairs hallway as they answered her call.

"Have either of you seen my lucky charm?"

Eri stood in the doorway of her bedroom. The bed behind her was strewn with clothes and shoes and makeup. She'd been told no less than a dozen times to only pack the necessities, which suited her perfectly - all the more reason to shop - but there was no way she was setting out on a trip around the world without her lucky charm.

The small candy apple keychain was a gift from Shinso when Ringo Ame auditioned for their first gig. He was her big brother; maybe not by blood, but he'd been around to offer his support since the day her dads adopted her.

Shinso also introduced Eri to Ochako and the other girls that made up the rock idol group Ringo Ame. She was just a child back then, but they took her under their wing. They spent countless hours learning the choreographed dances Mina developed and making up songs. It was just for fun at first. Jiro, the girls' friend and a member of a new local band Shake Down, taught them a lot about music, and their desire to perform grew.

Since both of her dads were members of the lengendary rock group The Vigilantes, they - along with the other members of the group - offered guidance as the girls worked hard to bring their vision into reality.

Now, they were living the dream!

"In the studio by the soundboard, I saw it there this morning. Forgot to bring it up." Hizashi said before ducking back into the storage room where they stashed the luggage.

"While you're down there,* Shota added, "grab the red notebook off the stand by the door. It has the set lists we were working on last night."

"Got it!" Eri hurried across the hall, bounding down the staircase, mind buzzing with excitement. Ringo Ame had completed two small tours since their popularity skyrocketed about a year and a half ago, and growing up, she'd frequently gone on tour with her dads. This time, though, she was nearly eighteen, and they were traveling all around the world. The list of cities on the schedule left her breathless.

The doorbell stopped her in her tracks. She glanced at her phone to check the time and then made a beeline for the front hall. When she threw open the door, she braced a hand on her hip and shook her head.

"Uncle Oboro, you were supposed to be here an hour ago! You know you're gonna get an earful."

Oboro put his hands up in surrender, flashing a grin. "You've got my back, though. Right, Eri?"

She grabbed his hand and pulled him inside, laughing. "Don't I always? But when you get your sentence, you're serving it alone. I have to finish packing, or I'm going to be in trouble."

"I only asked you to c9ver for me that once - twice... Okay, a handful of times, but tonight wasn't my fault. There were villains -"

Eri arched a brow. Since Shinso had gone on to become a pro hero, her dads often kept the news playing, and they hadn't heard a thing all day. "Sure you want to go that route?"

"Okay, okay." Oboro laughed, completely unfazed by his niece calling him out. "It's practically the truth, though. I stopped to get a coffee and ran into a crowd of fans -"

"Attractive fans?"

"Hey, is that really relevant?"

She gave him a look. Her uncle wasn't a player, but he did tend to get distracted by pretty faces. It'd been the cause of the band getting delayed on more than one occasion.

"Maybe one or two," he admitted with a sheepish grin, "but that really wasn't the problem. I swear. The group in general was pretty... How should I put it? Fanatical.  Our popularity has really skyrocketed again since Miss Yaoyorozu announced this tour. "

He was trying to sound put off by the The Vigilantes' resurgence in popularity, but Eri saw his grin and the way his eyes gleamed as he went on about all the interviews they had lined up and all the new fans that were going crazy on the band's Discord. After twenty years, they were considered rock legends, but the hype had waned since the earlier days of their career.

They were halfway down to the basement when Shota's voice came from the top of the stairs. "Oboro, is that you?"

"No?"

Eri rolled her eyes. "That's such a lame joke."

"Can't blame a guy for trying."

"We're already behind because you're late. Pack the extra mics while you're down there, and then you can start loading the van. We have to meet up with Nemuri and the crew at the hotel then try to get some sleep. Our flight leaves early tomorrow."

"Uncle Oboro didn't mean to be late. He had something of a, ah, a villain run-in -"

"Oboro," Shota interjected, "quit making my daughter cover for your irresponsibility," he crossed his arms over his chest, smirking, "and our fans aren't villains."

"That's what you think. I'm pretty sure one of them clipped a lock off the back of my hair."

A faint smile ghosted over Shota's lips. "Don't worry. We'll have Hizashi trim it in the van on the way to the hotel."

Eri glanced up to see the look of horror on her uncle's face, most likely recalling a story she heard about Oboro asking for a quick trim before a show, and her dad butchering the job so badly that her uncle had to wear wigs for the rest of the tour.

"Don't worry," Eri whispered, "I'll hide the scissors."

Dabi mail! It's been a while. Things have been... Well, let's not do that right now. Yesterday's mail was just amazing 💙💙 We have a nice little Dabi acrylic charm. The picture doesn't really show the pretty pearlescent colors. Also, a Dabi glass. These are both from my favorite Mercari seller.

AND! I received the last of my "Eyes of Heaven" enamel pins pre-orders. So, I've finally acquired the whole set. 💙💙 These are from Halcyon Pins.

Sorry for the delay! Not going to pull any punches here, I spent 6 days in the hospital, and then, my first day at home, I woke up as sick as hell. I'm still coughing, sore and tired, and my voice is funky, but I'm trying to be productive.

These designs aren't final. Until we get some official art, you're stuck with my awful, amateur graphic arts skills. 😂

Anyhow! These are the top acts on the MHA Star Struck Fantasy Rock Tour!

[kyiratodoroki]

edit as you write. use adverbs. use said. outline. or don’t. plot it. pants it. make a mary sue. who cares! just write whatever makes you happy. that’s all this is about. be happy in what you make.

The who and the why behind the Star Struck Fantasy Rock Tour fan zine.

Alright! Introductions are in order. My name is Kyira, and I'm 99.9% sure you wouldn't know me from anywhere. 😂 I've been a fan of My Hero Academia for 🤔 at least six years. Originally, I put the show on as background noise while I was making dream catchers, and now, here we are. 🤷‍♀️

My favorite aspect of MHA is Dabi/Touya Todoroki. I won't bore you with the list of reasons why, but he was the catalyst for this project. A few years ago, I created an AU focused around Dabi finding a different path in life as a rock star, and from that concept, Cremation was born.

For the Star Struck fan zine, I've reconstructed the idea, giving Dabi a different back story while expanding the focus to include a number of other characters. I've been running polls on Tumblr to garner some insight about who and what people would like to see. This has allowed me to begin fleshing out the world where this AU takes place.

On a side note, world building is probably my favorite aspect of writing, along with weaving together all the various aspects of the story.

I'll be totally up front and tell you this is my first project of this magnitude. Recently, my best friend and I ran a Kickstarter for MHA X Genshin crossover enamel pins. It was funded, and we managed to unlock the second design, but we jumped into it too quickly. That's why, for this project, I've taken things slowly and allowed more time between goals than usual. Besides, I love the idea of building a community of MHA fans.

On a final note, I have an MFA in Creative Fiction and took some business-related courses during my undergrad period. My goal has always been self-publication, and I've done a lot of research on the topic. I've also worked in the artist alley at conventions, wrote comfort character letters for a little while, and currently co-own a shop with fandom-related products, which is in the process of being revamped.

More than anything, I have a deep passion for MHA and this AU world. I want to bring it to life and share it with others who love this show and its characters. So, please, if you or anyone you know might be interested, please share the project and fill out the INTEREST CHECK. We are also taking MODERATOR APPLICATIONS. Thank you for taking the time to read and take care!

[kyiratodoroki]

As they say, better late than never! 😅 I'm posting a link to the moderator application for the Star Struck Fantasy Rock Tour. I would love to include everyone who's passionate about bringing the idea of the MHA cast as rock stars to life, so unless we end up with a huge influx of applications, this is more of a formality.

MODERATOR APPLICATION

That said, I know things have been a little slow here. I apologize for that and hope to remedy the lack of content. Despite appearances, things are taking shape behind the scenes. I have a silly little back story piece I'm finishing/editing and have solidified the six (yep, six!) groups that will be in the spotlight during the tour. There are lots of head canons developing as the characters' histories reveal themselves. Those will start rolling out in the not-too-distant future.

I also plan to write an official introduction to give you a better idea of who I am, how this concept developed, and what I'm hoping to accomplish. This includes more detailed information about my goals for packages, products, and some fun stuff I'm hoping to incorporate if the interest check is successful, and I can confidently begin to invite contributors and put the production of this project into motion.

This is why it's so important for everyone to take a moment to fill out the INTEREST CHECK and share with others who might be interested. My goal is to produce something, whether that's a simple PDF file with art and stories or full digital and physical merch packages. The more interest the project generates, the more I'll be able to provide. I have so many plans...

Alright, it's 5 in the morning, and I need to go back to sleep. 😂 My motivation strikes at the most inopportune times. Take care, and be on the lookout for more information!

“how do you plot / plan your book?” very bold of you to assume i do that.

[kyiratodoroki]

This is me. Kinda jealous of all the writers who can write quickly because I can't.
