My toxic trait is thinking that Tomura should get OFA solely bc he and Nana need to hug it out
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Blah blah great power blah blah great responsibility blah fate of the world” but have u considered that physical touch is their shared love language and that “touch” being taken from them both is a cornerstone of the Shimura Tragedy™. and also, that the last physical contact either of them ever had with their family is a source of intense heartbreak for them both,. have you,,,.
Tumblr media
*insert something something about MHA defining true heroism as protecting the future (and specifically safeguarding the futures of children), while Tomura’s inner self is frequently depicted as a child who is frozen in the moment of his worst trauma and has no future bc AFO deliberately created a situation where he would never be able to heal or move on from his past*
^ Like, I need this *gestures vaguely* to come full circle with a third Shimura Family Hug. But not in a mind crushingly depressing way where Tomura is just so desperate for comfort that he’ll settle for hugging a pile of remains-- I want the third hug to symbolize that he’s made peace with himself and is able to accept that he didn’t actually want his family to die, and that he's finally ready to start moving on from his past and looking forward to his future under much much much healthier terms. And I want Nana’s wish for her family to live a life full of smiles and joy to ultimately be revisited and fulfilled with Tomura— with her final hug sending Tomura off to a hopeful future where those who inherited her legacy finally step up and involve themselves in his life instead of dooming him to a life of unresolved abandonment issues. Please and thank.
