#Also also Hawks might be a little OOC in this?

[bicheetopuff]

(Ch. 336)

You know, this panel has always made me a little curious. Every other time we saw Izuku sparring with Katsuki (before the war started at least), he’d use blackwhip to defend himself, hence ‘catch-a-kacchan’ so I found it weird how Izuku didn’t even try to grab Katsuki. For like 100 chapters prior to this, he used blackwhip for everything and would eventually just leave it out incase he needed it quickly kinda like how Hawks utilized his feathers (when he had them) so I kinda just made a mental note about how weird it was that Izuku chose to evade instead of defend when he easily could’ve.

I also found it weird how quickly Izuku wanted to change the topic along with the distress on his face. I thought it was just a cheap and ooc way of explaining Todoroki’s new power quickly but, since it’s now confirmed that Izuku has PTSD about Katsuki’s sacrifice, what if Katsuki’s cluster move triggers that trauma response too?

The next time we see cluster used with Izuku present, Izuku actually does respond with blackwhip.

(Ch. 404)

He doesn’t use it in defense though, he uses it in almost possessive way by securing their hands together with it. But also, he doesn’t speak for this entire chapter. It could be explained away by the side effect of using gearshift and him not being able to breath but before now, he’s been more focused while in distress and was also speaking just fine before. Though, in these panels, and through the entire chapter, he seems almost delirious and in shock. He’s not even reacting to the lack of oxygen anymore.

He even starts ignoring Shigaraki in these moments. He’s stunned and mesmerized but now I’m starting to question whether he’s amazed or scared out of his mind for what might happen. With that uncertainty, all that I can say confidently is that he’s distracted.

(Season 7 ep. 4)

Arguably after chapter 404, he stops thinking straight and, honestly, gets a little sloppy. A few chapters after this, is when gets danger sense stolen and starts getting truly injured. He makes the decision to give away OFA and loses his arms. He reverts right back into his “I don’t care what happens to me” mentality that his class has been trying to get him to grow out of for a while.

He wasn’t mentally prepared for something to go wrong in this fight. He wasn’t mentally prepared to be pulled away, leaving Katsuki with Shigaraki. I thought it was just iffy writing that he’d mentally regress after Katsuki woke up instead of before but, it honestly makes a lot more sense now. He cared about what happened to himself because he needed to stay alive to ensure Katsuki’s revival. Once Katsuki woke up and he watched him fight AFO, he started being reckless again. He went back to viewing himself as nothing but a vessel for OFA because he believes OFA is the only thing that can beat AFO, hence why he trusted the vestiges when they said “we can fight him from the inside” (which I think was a silly decision. It’s noble in theory but it amounted to nothing because Izuku can’t win in this regressive state of self sacrifice anymore. Or at least, he shouldn’t since it’s such a big part of his arc.).

And now, with the most recent chapter with most of his classmates present it seems like he’s regretting that decision because he’s being reminded that people care about him. They showed up to support him regardless of already being hurt because he can’t win on his own. Eri mutilated herself to help him and if that doesn’t tell him that fighting without the intent of not dying is stupid, idk what will.

(Ch. 421)

He was about to just throw himself back into the fight with the same mindset as before if Aizawa didn’t stop him. He looks frustrated because he realizes the weight of what he’s been doing and how looking up to AM and the previous vestiges shouldn’t be his role models right now considering all of their fates. He’d just be continuing OFAs curse like Katsuki’s been worried about for a hundred something chapters.

In conclusion, this post was very unfocused but I can’t wait to see Izuku kick ass and for Katsuki to show back up because with the impact he’s had on Izuku, I DESPERATELY need them to talk. Most of this post may have very well been a stretch but, let me be delusional please.

WOMAN IN MY BED

Katsuki Bakugou x Reader

Includes: established relationships, fluff, changing into woman, suggestive content, a little ooc, written in second person, this fic takes place in third year.

Summary: Bakugou gets turned into a girl because of some random kid that you both had saved the day before. You show him how fun it is to be a girl and in other words your girlfriend.

a/n: Hey! This is my first time writing for Bakugou, so I really hope you enjoy this. By the way, this isn’t proof read and English is not my first language.

Word Count: 1.5k

It was a beautiful Saturday morning, sunlight carefully placed itself through the blinds in your dorm room and landed on the bed in which you and your boyfriend, Katsuki Bakugou lay in.

You were not in the mood to stand up yet, and Katsuki for some weird reason was yet to get up from the bed for his usual early morning run, but you weren’t complaining. With a small smile on your face you snuggled deeper in your boyfriend as you spooned him.

You moved your hand up a little into his chest to pull him in closer, but you realised that the lump that was once his chest had become considerably bigger. Out of pure confusion you squeezed it and your boyfriend woke up, feeling confused. As you sat up and took a good look at him. What was this beautiful woman doing in your bed? And where was your boyfriend?

“Uhm Kats? Is that you?” you said, your voice small from just waking up, you scratched your eyes to get the sleep out of your eyes, you felt like you were still dreaming.

“Of course it’s me, what kind of question is that?” he, well she said but her voice sounded more feminine and to you a little sexy. ‘It’s not fair!’ you thought to yourself. “You might want to take a look at yourself” you said while still mesmerized by her.

He sat up and took a look at the mirror that was opposite of your bed, and he couldn’t help but scream and scurry off your bed.

“Why do I look this way?” he looked at you as he asked as if you know, he was standing now and you could take your time to admire him appropriately, his body had noticeably reduced in size and he was wearing one of his black tank tops that made him look even curvier if you might say, he was in one of his boxer shorts and he looked noticeably shorter.

His hair for some reason no more spiky but sat beautifully on his shoulders and upper back, and he seemed like he had natural mascara, ‘Totally not fair.’ you couldn’t help but think to yourself.

Your boyfriend, was the most beautiful girl you had ever seen, as you were looking at him, well her, his hand began snapping in your face to make you concentrate on him, but you already were so there was no point of that anyways.

“Oh! I think it’s because of that boy we saved yesterday, he told me privately weird things happen when he uses his quirk this might be one of them.” You said shrugging as you continued to look at him.

You were no better than a man the way you watched him.

“Come back to bed, Katsuki. Let me see what we can do with this new body of yours as we still have it.” You said looking at him while licking your lips.

He blushed and although that sounded very promising, he couldn’t help but ask, “We have to find how to change me back first.” He said while looking away from you and going to look for something else for him to wear in your closet.

“He also said you would be fine in 24 hours but your very accepting of this, you know?” you said, shamefully watching him walk away. “Well sorry I also want to see what I could do now that I look like this.” he laughed as he threw his tank top that he had now removed at you.

“Oh, my boobs are bigger than yours.” He said before running into the bathroom to run away from you before you could do anything to him, but for some reason you didn’t you only hummed in agreement and he couldn’t help but roll his eyes. You were whipped but luckily he was to.

Both of you had now changed into your clothes. You wore a red, baggy Hawk’s merch and a pair of sweatpants that dropped from your waist, it was Katsuki’s before he became a woman, and it gave everyone a peak of your Calvin Klein boxers. You felt like the man in the relationship so you wanted to play the part.

He wore one of your black V-necks and a low rise jean to give a beak of the black thong he wore, courtesy of you but he wanted to whether it feels as sexy as it looks.

You two had woken up earlier than the others as usual. Since, you both were too lazy you both decided opt just eat cereal for the time being and then began discussing what you were going to do for the time being.

When everyone else had woken up they were met with a sight they were sure they won’t forget. Todoroki and Kirishima were the first to come to the common room that morning.

Kirishima was planning on making a protein shake he saw online and he wanted to try and make it earlier than usual in case he failed he didn’t want people to see or for everyone to know the reason the kitchen was messed up was his fault and Todoroki happened to know how to make it so he was willing to teach him.

So you could imagine the shock on their face when instead of them meeting an empty common room they found you manspreading on the couch and a really curvy woman straddling you as you looked at her all lovey-dovey as you massaged her waist.

“Y/N, definitely not manly!” Kirishima said after he had taken a picture and sending it to Bakugou. He was at loss for words, well Todoroki was by far worse since he couldn’t even form a sentence. He didn’t take you for a cheater. Definitely not you!

“What would Bakugou say when he comes back from his run and sees you hear partaking in scandalous activities with this stranger?” Todoroki said trying to fan himself so he wouldn’t faint from shock.

Bakugou couldn’t help but smile, his friends won’t let him cheat on you. At least that’s good to know, in case of future, hopefully it won’t happen in the future.

Before he could explain himself, they all heard a ding from his pocket. He took it out to see a picture of what was happening right now but he couldn’t deny, you both looked hot. He saved it and looked behind him and turned to see the look of shock on both of your friend’s faces.

“Bakubro?” Kirishima finally let out making eye contact with the red-eyed female, it was only him and Katsuki’s mother knew that also had the striking red eyes.

“Yes, dumbass?” he said now smiling, this was so funny to him, “Oh my Mother of all things Manly, Bakubro, you make such a beautiful woman.” Kirishima couldn’t help but say, his face was a little red.

“I know.” He said while smirking, he got off your lap then took a seat on the couch, then continued you two’s conversation on who was better, Hawks or Miruko. It’s obvious who was for who.

“This is so cool, do you mind if I write this in my notebook, Kachaan?” Izuku had said to your boyfriend once you had explained the whole predicament to the class.

Once again you were confused why they were all so accepting and understanding about this, you didn’t understand how they weren’t freaking out, if you weren’t his girlfriend you know you would’ve.

Bakugou simply swatted his hand at Izuku motioning that he could do whatever he wants. Before taking you by the hand and leading you outside the building completely. You were supposed to take him to your favourite record store today, and maybe buy him a Victoria Secret lingerie and maybe a dildo….

Night time had come and he was really happy to use everything you two had bought, and now you both were doing with your scandalous activities and both just finished showering now you were cuddled up reminiscing all the things that had happened that day.

From the group of boys that couldn’t stop gawking at you both, or Hawks asking if you were truly cheating on Bakugou because he was on patrol and happened to see you kissing a girl, or the matching press ons you both got but how you removed for Katsuki because you knew he wouldn’t want to stress himself doing that before he goes on his run tomorrow as a man again.

He had requested for you to spoon him again and you obviously complied, even allowed you to put your hand under his shirt, he smiled as he heard your soft breathing indicating you had fallen asleep and he knew today was a day to remember.

Avatar Request

Hi can I request lo’ak, where he tries to impress reader but he’s just keeps embarrassing himself. He goes to his dad for advice and just makes a fool out of himself till Neytiri comes to his rescue.

mother knows best

lo’ak sully x fem!metkayina!reader

summary: lo’ak tries so hard to gain your attention, little does he know all he needs is his mother’s advice

warnings: fluff, lo’ak pinning, maybe slight angst if you squint? lo’ak has no game

this wasn’t specific so i made reader metkayina bc i feel like it fits since yk, also probably ooc lo’ak but it’s fine

lo’ak just couldn’t help himself but be attracted to you.

your curly hair, gorgeous aqua eyes, and bright smile caused him to blush and beam.

but when tonowari asked you to help teach the sully children the metkayina ways, lo’ak was sure he was going to be with you.

it might just take awhile.

“y/n!” lo’ak calls after you. carrying a pile of fishnets to drop off to the fishermen, your ears perked up from your name.

“good morning, lo’ak.” you nodded to the boy.

“do you need any help carrying all those nets?” he asked you, a hopeful look on his face.

“why, do you believe i am not strong enough?” you teased.

“no! no that’s not what i was implying-“

lo’ak’s face blushed red as his ears fell, tail swaying behind his legs.

“relax, skxawng (idiot). i’m only joking. but if you’re offering, you can grab those buckets.” you nodded your head towards the pile of wood.

lo’ak nodded, grabbing the boxes as he began to walk with you.

“let me show you how us omatikaya hold things…” lo’ak joked, grabbing the crate with one arm and holding it over his shoulder.

“impressive. metkayinas can do that when they are three.” you winked, seeing as lo’ak tripped over a rock and dropped the crate on the floor.

lo’ak’s ears fell as you laughed, hiding your smile behind your hand. his face grew hot as some surrounding metkayinas snickered.

there were multiple instances where lo’ak would try to show off, the deed going wrong and causing lo’ak to embarrass himself.

“dad,” lo’ak approached where his father was sharpening some knives.

“what’s up?” jake asked, pausing the action to pay attention to his son. lo’ak appreciated it- the one time his father might give him real advice.

“there is this… uh… girl. and i want to impress her, but every time i do- i just make it awkward or embarrass myself.”

jake smiled at his youngest son.

“what i did with your mother was try to learn her ways. make her laugh, take what she does seriously, and just be around her. maybe ask her help you with the sign language. compliment her, make her feel special.”

lo’ak nodded at his father, a smile on his face. “thank you.”

little did the duo know, neytiri stood away with perked up ears listening to what her mate was telling her son.

the next day she watched lo’ak approach you while you were resting on the sand.

he sat across from you, accidentally splashing water into your eyes.

she swore to eywa, believing how much her son was like jake.

“i’m so sorry-“

“lo’ak, it is alright. we have two eyelids for that reason.” you sat up, blinking to show him your second eyelid and the late reaction it had.

“it’s like an alligator- an animal my father would tell stories about. how they attack sky people and other animals for venturing too close to their territory.”

you looked at the boy, confused. neytiri rolled her eyes, face palming herself.

“sorry.”

lo’ak was mentally cursing himself. a deep blush made your teal cheeks have hints of pink, and lo'ak swore he wanted to crawl into the sand and die at that very moment.

➽─────────────────❥

a few days later, lo'ak sat across from you as you taught him sign language.

"dive, swim, follow," you demonstrated every word with a hand motion, the teen following intently.

lo'ak copied your movement, his eyes watching you like a hawk as you continued to teach.

"now, you try." you nodded towards lo'ak to begin.

he was nervous, taking his hands and trying to remember the ten words you just taught him within a minute. with you, it was learn fast or get left behind, and it intimidated lo'ak.

"dive, swim, follow..." lo'ak had messed up. his ears fell flat in embarrassment, your eyes glowing with a glimmer of something he couldn't quite tell.

"well... you are learning something, at least." you shrugged, pushing your hair off of your shoulder and behind your back. lo'ak hated that you made him so nervous, made him feel like a fool.

he could tell you were slightly annoyed.

"i have to go tend to my siblings. we will catch up later, yeah?" you excused yourself from the boy. lo'ak watched with sad eyes as you left, his head hung low as he sat on the sand alone.

"get up, maitan (my son)." neytiri grabbed her son's forearm from the side, nearly frightening the poor boy.

her tone was harsh as she looked at her son with wide eyes.

"it shocks me that you did not pick up flirtatious banter from your father."

lo'ak furrowed his brows as he stared up at his mother.

"mama-"

"let me help you. while i love your father, he is like a baby sometimes."

neytiri began walking away while lo'ak stood in the same spot on the sand, dumbfounded at his mother.

"come." she barked.

"while girls like being complimented, having boys to spend time with, and whatever else your father told you, it is the average. that is not going to stand out to y/n. you need to do something special, something that shows her that you care."

it was almost as if a lightbulb went off in lo'ak's head.

"thank you, mama." lo'ak bowed to his mother, a beaming smile on his face as he ran off to begin organizing.

➽─────────────────❥

later that night, you woke to lo'ak shaking you awake gently.

"come, i have to show you something."

you wiped the sleep away from your eyes, your mind too hazy to realize what he said until you were outside of your pod.

you looked to where a woven blanket was placed on the sand, a breakfast meal arranged gently in the middle. the sun was about to rise, the moon beginning to move past it on eclipse.

"what is this?" you asked curiously, a yawn escaping your lips.

lo'ak would be lying if he were to say he wasn't terrified.

"i figured we could watch the sunrise." lo'ak was absentmindedly playing with his hands. you noticed his nervously, a small grin tugging on the end of your lips.

you sat down, beckoning him to join you. lo'ak let out a sigh of relief as he sat next to you, picking up a berry and eating it. you followed suit, the juice of the fruit exploding into your mouth.

pink, orange, yellow, and red erupted over awa'atlu as eclipse began to undo. you watched the sight intently, never purposefully watching the sight.

but eywa, it was beautiful.

the animals went back to life, the clear reef showcasing each one and their uniqueness. you were in awe, a subtly glow on your face.

"this is beautiful, lo'ak." your big grin made lo'ak's heart flutter. he ducked his head down, almost scared to meet your gaze.

you unknowingly put your hand on top of his, too lost in the scene to notice or care. but lo'ak noticed, and he very much cared.

you looked absolutely stunning under the lighting. it was refreshing to see you so happy, normally being so overwhelmed with clan business.

still tired, you put your head on lo'ak's shoulder. his heartbeat was beating rapidly. and before he knew it, you had begun to gently doze off onto him.

lo'ak grinned, rubbing your bicep gently as he laid back on the sand. your head moved to rest on his chest as you curled into him.

"i see you, y/n," lo'ak whispered. even if you didn't hear it, he just needed you to know.

however, you did hear it. the adjusting had woken you up to barely any consciousness.

"i see you too, lo'ak."

lo'ak pressed a kiss to your head, his heart doing leaps in his chest as he began to doze off with a smile on his face.

neytiri had woken up that morning to the sight of you sleeping on her son, beaming proudly at her son.

sorry if this was bad or too short, i still think it's cute tho :)

These tags on a reblog of my Anders analysis are another problem I have with DA:2's writing

#god i have so many feelings about this#cuz i romanced anders my first playthrough#and i hated that our relationship did a 180 as soon as I was like#“im not gonna let you gaslight me into doing war crimes”#was it OOC?#i don't know#I can't say#I haven't studied anders as a character or taken the time to contemplate him enough to speak on it#but i just know it was such a turn off that i started a new game entirely EDIT: I have removed the word "gaslighting" from this meta owing to the fact that technically, Anders isn't gaslighting, because gaslighting is something different. Gaslighting being trying to make someone doubt their perception of reality, among other things. What Anders ACTUALLY does falls under emotional manipulation. I would say to the OP that yes, indeed, this is VERY "out of character", so to speak. Most definitely for JUSTICE, the spirit inhabiting Anders's body. But also for Anders as well. Think about it: emotionally manipulating one's romantic partner is an inherently unjust thing to do. It is not something two people who respect and love each other do. Yet the spirit of Justice is completely silent when it happens. A being that supposedly embodies nothing but Justice simply...allows his host to guilt his lover into doing something they disagree with. He does not protest or try to stop Anders from engaging in a truly toxic form of emotional manipulation. If written properly, Justice should immediately have called Anders out on this. Which should prompt either an apology from Anders or a long, seemingly one-man argument between the two. But that doesn't happen. In fact, Justice only shows up if you, as Anders's rival, manage to turn him AGAINST blowing up the Chantry. And then, only to railroad Anders back into the role of terrorist. This, combined with Justice's general lack of reaction to any injustice or violation of rights that DOESN'T have to do with mages, causes him to become little more than a cheap plot device. Now as to why I don't believe a properly written Anders would do it, either. Anders at this point in the story is a revolutionary, yes. He is passionate about his cause. But he is also MORE than that. And part of that 'more'-and also WHY he's a revolutionary-is that he was a victim of a controlling, emotionally manipulative institution. One that bombards people like him with all kinds of unhealthy messaging. Messages like: the outside world is guaranteed to hate you, your (unchangeable) nature is inherently wrong and sinful. As well as: you can't trust yourself at all, you are one bad day from being a monster, you need to let us control you for your own good. Anders probably saw more than one person like Keili-that girl in the Mage Origin who actively believes she's evil and prays to 'not be a mage'. He probably encountered a lot of mages with varying degrees of religiously based self-loathing. He probably had some himself. And he lived in the Ferelden Circle. He's also a person who not only left a toxic institution, but actively sees and complains about how toxic the institution is. People who've suffered from toxic environments/relationships and RECOGNIZE how toxic those environments/relationships were, tend to value healthy relationships/environments. They try and work on themselves to remove any lingering psychological effects of that toxicity. It is highly likely that Anders would NOT want to repeat the kind of emotional manipulation he and others were subjected to. While he might not agree with Hawke about methods, Anders would not believe guilt to be a good tactic because guilt is one of the very tactics the Chantry used on him! Guilt about being a target for demonic possession, guilt about what the magisters did, guilt about being a mage in general.

Guilting his partner into agreeing with him, is, essentially, him doing what the Chantry did to him. And if the writers had put any thought into his character, they would have realized that too. And thus, if they were smart, or and simply give the player the option to permanently decline the quest with no negative consequences. The other option is to lean into that, and purposefully make it a character flaw, that he's too blinded by trauma to see that. But the writers did NOT have the time to be able to successfully pull that off. Thus, yeah. They make Anders, who suffered from religious based emotional manipulation...into someone who emotionally manipulates his partners. Which is yet another thing done in the name of a less-than-stellar ending and plot beat. EDIT: I have removed the word "gaslighting" from my part of this meta owing to the fact that technically, Anders isn't gaslighting Hawke, because gaslighting is something different. Gaslighting being trying to make someone doubt their perception of reality, among other things. What Anders ACTUALLY does falls under emotional manipulation. Which I still don't believe a properly written Anders OR Justice would do, for the reasons stated above.

[astridthevalkyrie]

Okay where do we start with cobra kai part 2 now that you’ve finished watching it

i'm SO glad you asked! here's my thoughts (prone to change since i just finished it last night), spoilers under the cut:

the bad:

oh my god we GET it. miguel should've been the captain. making everyone else get their ass kicked so easily just to hype him up was lame. once, sure. the "watch how it's done" scene was cool. but like three four different times? come on.

there was just so much repetitiveness in general. robby's distracted by tory. kwon is an asshole because he is. daniel and johnny argue over the same things they always argue about. zara is a mean influencer because she's a mean influencer. we get it we get it oh my god.

not specific to season 6 part 2 and far be it from me to be a superfan of miguel and johnny but oh my god johnny is so shitty to him. why the fuck are you bothering him on the place leave him ALONE. we've lost the heartfelt moments with miguel and johnny, and we've lost the plot with daniel and robby (which was one of the best relationships in the show).

sensei wolf was hot but useless, silver might as well have just been the iron dragons' "anonymous sensei" that they reveal later on. was silver waiting for daniel to find out before making himself public? like why was he hiding if he was just gonna come out and be there anyways.

they kinda have hit a snag with silver. he was a really good villain, the actor has a really good screen presence, and so they didn't wanna write him out of the show, but his arc was over. bringing him back now, again, becomes repetitive, and adds very little to the plot, even if it does make the iron dragons kinda relevant instead of just being super strong side characters.

what the actual fuck did they do to demetri. why were they trying so hard to make him unlikeable. i was rooting for him in part 1. he's hurt and lashing out at hawk, he's clearly still traumatized from his best friend breaking his arm and imo a shitty apology afterwards, but now? consistently talking about MIT, not trying hard, cheating on his girlfriend? it sucks how much he shouldn't have been part of the competition. more s6p1's fault for the dumb as fuck way they chose the team, but demetri was never a super strong fighter. so if you send him to sekai taikai, my god, at least give him a moment or two to show he's there for a good reason. character assassination at its finest. also very clearly done to make hawk look better in comparison.

carmen's appearance in this season was just another disgusting hammer in the nail of everything they've done with her this far.

stop making johnny a right wing conspiracy theorist i'm begging, stop sacrificing his character that should be mature af by now to make him say haha woke mob jokes.

while i love how mature sam has been the entire season, she has no goals right now. i don't know what it should've been, but they should have given her some stakes in the sekai taikai. her arc in season 4 and 5 also kind of concluded, without her ever beating tory and without tory ever honestly beating her. my samtory heart says i don't want them to fight, i love them fighting for each other and protecting each other (for once want tory protecting sam instead of the other way around), but my samantha larusso heart wants her to have a solid win against tory on the mat.

she was also ooc. i think she was right to call out johnny, but s4 sam would not say this!! s4 sam was johnny's student too! come on now. sam is not just miyagi do. sam has mastered both elements as much as the boys have. them deciding to switch up sam and amanda every season.

didn't want drama between miguel and sam but was hoping for a moment. ig if they're not broken up we're not supposed to care about them.

hawk's hair is tacky. hate it.

the cgi/ai mr miyagi thing was incredibly awful. why the hell did they do that it was so disrespectful.

WE SHOULD'VE HAD MORE SAM ROBBY SCENES. GIVE ME THE LEGACY KIDS GODDAMMIT.

the big thing. kwon's death (if he is dead that is). it's hmmmm. idk how i feel about it. on one hand, yes, good for everyone to finally realize this has gone way too far. absolutely fucking ADORE daniel trying to reach him and stop him. daniel lasrusso my beloved the only one who acknowledges these are kids. on the other hand, and i don't mean in this in a super mean way, who cares. right now the only thing that makes this sad is kwon's age. otherwise, his teammates didn't like him, his competitors didn't like him, the senseis didn't care about him aside from his skills. maybe this would be different if he was kim's favorite instead of yoon or if him and kreese had a relationship like tory and kreese did. or if he had a SINGLE humanizing moment. or a friend. they just did his character dirty tbh. also made him seem like a hotshot with nothing to back it up when part 1 showed him as very formidable. brandon lee is mega hot and his acting was fire he should've had more to work with it.

i also think the way it happened with him stabbing himself is dumb af. at this point it might've been better if he just stabbed axel.

and what's gonna happen now? if they continue the competition that's insane. if they don't then it's disappointing. we hyped all this up only to not have a winner? my god that sucks.

the whole brawl was just. meh. it's nothing like the high school fight they didn't even come close.

the good:

sam and axel were so fucking adorable. i really wish they hadn't gone down the he likes her and tries to kiss her route. would've been so much better if they were just friends, and kinda wanted to see a brawl of the two of them versus kwon and yoon.

KENNNYYYYYYYY. dumb as fuck that hawk and demetri didn't trust him for such dumb reasons, but oh my god they like my baby finally have a win. loved his middle finger to silver. wish there was a robby kenny scene.

sensei kim's hair down oh my gooooooood. she's so gorgeous.

i didn't wanna put kim/chozen in the bad, idk if i should put it in the good, it's just. there. lol.

tory and sam for the most part. no rivalry. just two traumatized girls knowing they need to fight each other and grimly resigning themselves to it. poor babies.

johnny's divorced wife ass voicemail. "the kids need you, i need you." the middle aged gay men have once again gotten me. silver called him a pretty boy this show is OBSESSED with calling johnny a pretty boy what the fuck.

silver also put daniel in a dog cage. no explanation as to what would've happened if daniel didn't use jesus (?) to escape. jumin han ass plan.

fight choreography was insanely good. personal fav is kenny's little flip when he's tapped in.

liked anthony and kenny's resolution.

training montage in the last or second last episode was super cute.

ADORABLE scene in the locker rooms with the whole "who are we? miyago do!" call me cringe. i loved it. i'm glad they realized this is it, they're not gonna be fighting as a team forever and they need to savor it.

miguel's maturity after he comes back to the competition was so refreshing. finally.

i know i already said brandon lee is hot but brandon lee is hot. the way they did his hair, his smirk, the way he talks, ohhhh my god.

carrying from season 4 part 1, whoever is doing peyton list's makeup makes it look like tory is constantly crying. at first it was jarring, but it really adds to the scenes and makes you feel bad for her.

hopefully in part 3 we'll get core 4 stuff. i want miguel sam robby tory hanging out. not on awkward double dates, but as friends who all like and love each other. the characters are all in a good place with each other right now. please please please.

there was probably more good? but i can't think of it right now lol. anyway watch cobra kai as a comedy and it's insanely good. take it seriously and you'll suffer. i have done both and will continue to.

CAN YOU WRITE DOLPH X SUNSHINE PERSON MALE READER? PLS

They messaged me on the prompt that i need to make this request so that’s why you don’t see it. I might miss remembered something wrong so i’m sorry if i might get some things wrong 😅 i also might accidentally make some characters if mentioned ooc which im sorry about 😅.

Warning: noob author, male reader, violence?, and others.

Character: dolph.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You met dolph when the warden of Eden; Sarah, kidnapped you along with him and some others. You got along with the others pretty easily; pey’j being more on guard and overprotective of jade though.

Dolph immediately got your interest, you would chat with him but he would always answer with a yes or no before making a excuse to leave which would lead you saddened but you think it’s because of his past especially having to be back in Eden after what they had done to him. You knew about Eden being fake and corrupted though you get the feeling that there’s another thing on why he’s so cold.

You decided to give him time but also make sure to take care of himself so you don’t get worried and fret over him and stress which would get you killed either on the mission or by Sarah.

Dolph appreciate it’s but still on guard especially after his previous partner betrayed him. He starts doing little things for you as well but brush it off saying something about not needing to get held back if you are in bad health because you couldn’t make sure you stay healthy as well.

Sadly things took the turn for the worst and two more of your teammates died, jade had died when all of you was getting a smuggled high tech tool (forgot what it’s called) and she was killed by ping man when he was threatenng dolph, you find out about how Alex is dolph’s ex and that Alex betrayed dolph which angered you greatly, you made up your mind on if dolph doesn’t get revenge on Alex’s betrayal then you will and you make it be like hell to Alex for what he did to dolph as you don’t take betrayals kindly.

You, dolph and Sarah are the only ones that isn’t dead or captured; bullfrog being captured while pey’j like jade died in the process of protecting innocent hybrids after some glasses controlled Kenny a wrestler into killing a lion hybrid wrestler, some humans were also wearing the same glasses started killing hybrids. You went up there with dolph to take down the tower before it was just the four of you and battled wagainst Alex, Alex wouldn’t hurt dolph but he certainly would hurt you though in the end Alex lost and the towers was destroyed you comforted dolph when you saw him crying by groaned as the wounds Alex placed on you was more severe in pain after the adrenaline finally wore off. Sarah also need up betraying the two of you as well after she saved you and brought you to a wasteland which ended up with you to both dying trying to stop her.

Or so you thought.

(A/n: hope y’all like it!! Also my first captain laser hawk request let’s go!! I hope y’all like it i tried my best to remember as much as possible for it as it’s been a second since i last seen captain laser hawk 😅 but anyway hope y’all like it! Hope y’all have a wonderful day/evening/night!!)

SHIPPING INFO // ANSWER THE FOLLOWING FOR YOUR MUSES SO PEOPLE KNOW HOW SHIPPING WORKS ON YOUR BLOG. [Rima.]

WHAT IS YOUR OTP FOR YOUR CHARACTER(S)?

I am a BIG fan of ships with mirroring pasts. 2 muses with similar pasts, but with VERY different outcomes. (It is one of my favorite thigns in writing <3) Example Hawks x Rima - They were both saved by Endeavor, but the route they take in the aftermath is a little different. Or Dabi x Rima - Raised in a not great way with bad familys, but VERY conflicting views on Endeavor. Also Rima doesn't like it but I Love The Hate ship she has going with Kaiba (she can't stand him.) but having relationships where people don't get along can be fun <3

HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE?

As long as it is 2 consenting adults, I'm all good. I love exploring all kinds of situations. (I feel like it challenges me as a writer which is fun)

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING?

Not Really~ All it takes is a conversation, and batting ideas back and forth. (For me the biggest thing is to just talk to me) I am way more likely to ship with someone if they are good at communicating OOC.

WHO ARE OTHER CHARACTERS YOU SHIP YOUR CHARACTER WITH?

@bearratic (Hawks ) @heroic-endeavors ( Hawks ) @frogsonalotusleaf (Hawks and Night eye. Kaiba) (Oh good Lord there are a lot of hawks... -shrug-) @darkenedpunk061 (Piers), @inmensapotentia (Shunsui and Ukitake <3) @pocket-sized-lawyer (Jun) and @secondchxnceduelists (Jabari ) - Lets be honest there are probably others but I just woke up.

DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU?

I accept flirting, but for actual ships I need some form of communication. So yes. Ask first. (It helps me figure out how to go about things) I'm the kind of writer that really ENJOYS talking about dynamics, and seeing what we can work with. Even if its a canon muse I write with multiples of. (No 2 people write the same canon muse in the same way. And I LOVE exploring the differences. From different writing styles to DIFFERENT interpretations. THAT is what makes rp fun.) So please TALK to me. (the worst you might get is a ton of questions cus I like to world build like that)

ARE YOU SHIP-OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE-OR-LESS?

For me it REALLY depends on the muse. With Rima she is very easy to ship with for the most part. (I think theres only been like ONE person she's out right said no to. -looking at you kaiba- ) Just talk to me, I promise I don't bite.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM?

End/Hawks (and I giggle since Rima is a hawks simp, but Hawks is an Endeavor simp.)

FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU?

Dm me, come say hello, TALK to me. Communication outside of threads is VERY important to me. IF you want ot ship with me, talk to me.

I’ve been obsessed with Professor Hawke lately. I was wondering if you could do a head cannon with how him and the mc came to be together? I always thought it would be under dire circumstances, (Spoiler) like when he got hurt protecting mc that one time in Lance’s route? I feel like someone with him would only be under special circumstances you know?

Hawke brain rot coming right up!

(warnings: none, aside from the narrative holding you at a proverbial gunpoint if you squint. Also, I kinda struggle with writing Hawke, so it might be a lil' ooc)

(GN reader and an adult around Hawke's age)

How You and Hawke Came to Be

During your time at the Royal Academy of Concordia, you've come to quite admire Professor Hawke

How could you not? As easygoing a professor as he was, he still went out of his way to help his students succeed

And you were no exception. He often stayed behind to help you if you were struggling on multiple occasions

With his help, you got just the boost you needed to pass all of your exams

Since you've passed all your exams, Fenn invited you out for a drink with his friends

There you and Hawke got the chance to talk some more and really seemed to hit it off

He told you that your coming here was a pleasant surprise and he seemed quite happy to get to know you better outside of class

Since that night you seemed to have butterflies in your stomach whenever you and Hawke had the chance to talk.

And lately, that seemed to be pretty often since Fenn often invited you out for drinks

It seemed as though the more time you spent together, the better friends you seemed to become. And it wasn't long before that friendship spiraled into you pining for him

One day you were sent out to run an errand and you came across a shady group of people wearing cloaks in an alleyway

You hid behind a barrel and observed them for a bit as they discussed some sort of plan you did not quite catch

You only heard something about some magical artifacts before they slipped into a secret passageway

Ok. You definitely had to notify someone about this. You went to go tell the authorities, but little did you know that there was someone following you from behind

One of the cloaked people noticed you and started to follow you

For some reason, you couldn't find anyone to report this suspicious activity to, and now you got lost

You were about to turn back when the hooded figure came face-to-face with you

This was not going to end well

Or was it?

Hawke noticed the person following you and followed them too

The hooded figure and Hawke got into a scuffle and Hawke emerged victorious but not without a few injuries. None of them were life threatening, but they definitely needed to be treated as soon as possible

With your help, Hawke bound the person in ropes and led him to the nearest constable's office where he was interrogated

Thanks to you, a small portion of Iritum was sent to justice and now the authorities have another lead on the case

You asked Hawke if he was okay since the goon landed a few hits on him

"Not to worry, now, [Name]. 'Tis but a few scratches. How about yourself, hm?"

"I'm alright"

He escorted you back to the academy once he was patched up by some healers the constable called in

It was past curfew, so he vouched for you

He dropped you off outside your dorm building, but before he left you had to tell him something. This was bugging you for too long so you HAD to tell him

You confessed your feelings for him right there

Cue shocked Hawke

It turns out he seemed to have fallen for you also, and he was quite happy to know you felt the same way. Hell, he SAVED you bc he didn't want you to be in danger. He likes, nay, Loves you that much

Congratulations! You now have Hawke as a paramour

@the-ethereal-god

Fun fact about Umbrolus’ name. Ooc his name came from the Latin words Umbra and Diabolus, shadow and the devil, because he’s a shadowy colored tiefling. In universe he was named that by his adopted parent, who is a green chromatic dragon, and it’s a draconic name.

You have no idea how right you are about “poor Draven” I have not even scratched the surface about her problems 😂 I was probably cruelest to her out of my characters, but she also got a very nice peaceful happy ending with her literal soulmate. I like for my characters to earn their happy endings, but I *do* like happy endings.

Fun fact about Ileark is he’s actually a joint creation of myself and my friend who GM’d the Pathfinder game he was from. All his present day choices and his general personality and reactions and such were all me as well as some small backstory details, but the lion’s share of his backstory was made by my friend, because the twist of this particular game was all the characters started with total amnesia and slowly remembered their previous lives throughout the first few chapters.

Lucien was originally made for a short one-shot game, which then became a long running game, so I had to rework him into a fully fledged fledged character after the fact instead of going into the game with everything already made. So maybe he doesn’t jive with you as well because he was created a little less organically than the others. Also I didn’t get really get into any of his angst in the last post 😂 That is to say he has crippling depression and sees the world as a constant spiral of the same dull things over and over, he self sabotages and can’t hold down any regular ‘respectable’ work because it’s all too dull and ‘grey’ to him, and he wants to fight one particular super dragon with the full intention of going out in an adrenaline fueled blaze of glory.

Sai is the way she is because she was raised by a hag who stole her true name (Sai doesn’t know this she thinks she’s just Sai Gwenn). So her sense of morality is a bit…skewed. She does genuinely want to do good. But she tends to go about it with methods that others might find questionable. It doesn’t help that one of the first people she met when she ran away from home was Hayden, an assassin who worships the god of murder, who quickly took up an older brother-esc position in her life (although due to some trauma family stuff on his end he says she’s his older sister). So he’s far from the best influence but he’s also her favorite person in the world and she’d defend him with her life.

Also fun fact, I made her name from the word sanguine, because she’s a bat beastkin, which traditionally are drawn to blood like vampire bats.

Kaius is a gunslinger who for almost his entire story went by the name ‘Hawke’ (short for Hawkeye) because he didn’t want any enemies he made working as a mercenary to find their way back to his family. He only told one person his real name and the truth that he was doing all this to raise money for his daughter: the party’s cleric Gabby—the one who turned out to be a cultist and betrayed the party later. She used this information against him exactly as he’d feared, and since then he’s never really extended real trust to anyone outside of his family—not even the other members of the party. He goes by his real name now because he’s (mostly) retired. But while he’s a friendly and easy to talk to guy, he lies easily and keeps his walls up with anyone who isn’t his daughter or wife.

Fun fact about Kaius, I made him with the intention of him lying about basically everything in an attempt to obscure the truth about his past and his family. His bluff score was through the roof. So at the start of the game we played two truths and a lie, and I decided to be a little shit and tell 3 lies. Well of course that would be when I roll a nat 1 to bluff. So all my plans for the character were out the window immediately because his habit of lying about everything was revealed right at the start 😂

“I don’t know how much I like Calio but I like him” is such a common reaction to Calio. Even in universe 😂. He’s definitely kind of a bastard, but he’s a charismatic bastard, and he owns it. He leans into it, and has fun with it, which I think helps his likability.

Fun fact: I don’t know everything about his backstory yet, because he had a year long gap in his memories that he’s been slowly learning what things he did during (mostly bad. Let’s be real it was mostly bad 😂). I should be finding out the final pieces of the puzzle tomorrow, because the party finally freed Baba Yaga from the trap Rasputin (yes that Rasputin) and the Queen of Irrisen set for her, and Baba Yaga should know the full story of what Calio was doing in the last year because he was pretty entangled with her, the Queen of Irrisen, and Rasputin from the sound of it.

What Could and Should Have Been (DDHTC V3) by GoatDuck

The traumatized children get real loving homes. This follows the story of hero married couple Hizashi and Shouta as they collect traumatized children like Pokemon cards.

This is the third version of the story and second time I am rewriting it due to me re-watching the series again. I will attempt to keep personalities close to canon but due to the nature of the fic some things will be OOC. Also I have to change some events due to the nature of the fic. I will attempt one chapter a week but college is hard ya'll.

Ugh, yeah the scene of Hawke handing Fenris to Danarius and Anders agreeing with it is utterly horrific. I don't understand why the writers went with that, but I guess it's what we got. You'd think Justice would interfere as well as he despises slavery. Vivienne stans living in an alternate universe where she's the perfect model minority with no flaws whatsoever? What a shocker..

Yeah, that moment makes little sense to me. If it was Surana, whom it was originally supposed to be, then the comment, though disgusting, would fall more in line with the horrible crap she said in Awakening. But for Anders, who's been on the run almost a dozen times? For Justice, who was still himself when we entered the Fade? It just doesn't click for me well. One of those moments that feels like the original writers wrote him OOC, tbh. But as you said, it's what we've got.

The only way I can think of it is... Anders was looking to hurt Fenris, for some reason. In his efforts to do so, he said something horrible, something he may not even agree with, just so he can create a wound. It's something I've done; it's something I think most people have done at least once in their lives. Allowing themselves to become a monster just so that they can make someone else hurt.

Whether it's that or he meant it doesn't matter. It's sickening. It deserves to be called out. You can love the character and also despise that moment; humans are capable of such complexity. In fact, maturity often means recognizing both the good and bad in a person.

A person, for instance, like Vivienne. Because from what I've seen, Vivienne made herself into a monster long ago, and she now revels in it. I've quoted this before, but there's a conversation between her and Cole that makes my stomach twist every time. I'll give you the pertinent recounting here:

Cole: The templars hurt mages.

Vivienne: Stupid, panicking mages who became a danger to themselves and others because of you!

Vivienne: You brought matters in the Spire to a head. Without you, there would be no rebellion.

Vivienne: Countless deaths are on your head, demon. Are you satisfied with the result of your protection?

Cole: You're lying. You're... twist the words right, and it will show its true form. Blood or banishment, either will suffice.

Cole: You like the templars. You think they were right.

You like the templars. You think they were right.

In this exact instance, Cole is saying, point-blank, that Vivienne knows the templars were hurting and killing mages, and she feels they were right to do so.

So when it comes to mages... no, Vivienne does not care. After all...

Solas: While mages live in depravation you do not share? You lord their mystique over those not so gifted. Well played, Enchanter. In another age you might have ruled an empire.

Vivienne: You are too kind, my dear. But this age is still young.

I don't think I need to explain this any further.

As for elves...

Inquisitor: There's an altar.

Vivienne: If the elves performed some sort of magic here... we should proceed with caution, Inquisitor.

This may sound normal if you look at it from the surface - you're in the Cradle of Sulevin, there's a weird altar, and it all culminates in a battle you definitely saw coming. But it's weird that Vivienne didn't say something like 'if these people' or 'if they' or 'if some sort of magic...' It's disturbing that she emphasizes with, 'if the elves...' It's almost like she's denigrating them or something.

Sera: You all think no one can touch you, but I say a kind word to a butler and I'm in your vault. Because he hates you.

Vivienne: And I'll fill it just to watch you scurry from the gutter. Again and again and again.

Vivienne: Big vault. Little elf.

She says it because she knows it will bother Sera. But it bothers me. Mocking her as if she's a rat. It's disgusting.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. The things I remember off the top of my head.

These people can despise Anders all they want. They can love Vivienne all they want. They can have a million reasons, or none at all; everyone has the right to love or hate whichever fictional characters they want. But pray they don't come to my house and say anything so hypocritical and stupid as how Anders is racist, but Vivienne isn't.

ABOUT

scratch the cat is an original character based around the events of sonic forces

i'll be playing scratch in her early/mid 20s, and probably won't be using any icons for her. she is a tortoiseshell cat with brown, orange, and black fur, and yellow eyes

while scratch is not the avatar that you play as in forces, she is from the same city, and was privy to the death and destruction wrought on the city by infinite and eggman

scratch's parents, older brother, and younger sister were killed in the attacks, leaving her nothing and nobody to go back to, so she throws herself into the resistance, taking on risky missions and front-line defense positions

in the beginning of the war, scratch was definitely not focused on making it out alive, instead just trying her best to make any kind of impact against infinite and eggman. as she survives and hardens over the months, so does her anger, and by the time sonic comes back she's become more focused on killing infinite and eggman than protecting the resistance or any of the people who call her their friend

when infinite disappears, it robs scratch of any semblance of closure. she can't accept that he's really gone because she hasn't seen that he's actually dead. it's a similar feeling when the resistance beats eggman, letting him get away, as if he doesn't have to pay for all the hurt, all the pain, all the death he caused

while most citizens were grateful to give back their wispons and join the restoration effort, relieved the war was finally over, scratch only became more restless. she stole her wispon, the ivory lightning wispon, and set off on her own crusade to find and kill both infinite and eggman

scratch has a close relationship with the ivory wisp that resides in her wispon, naming it blitz -- although blitz doesn't seem to condone her revenge plot, it's loyal to her and doesn't want to see her get hurt. blitz has never abandoned her, although sometimes it will choose not to attack or provide it's hyper-go-on energy if it doesn't agree with what she's doing

after the war, scratch broke into old eggman complexes and workshops, hunting for information about infinite and the phantom ruby. she's working on gathering enough intel to figure out not only what happened to infinite but also how to find him and finally take her revenge on him

in terms of plotting against eggman -- i'll probably play around with idw timelines here in regard to the whole mr. tinker and metal virus arcs

anyway.. lots to vibe with in terms of helping scratch along her revenge plot or trying to convince her of another way. she's also extremely reckless and willing to help with missions or tasks others might deem as suicidal, so if there's something stupidly dangerous your character needs to do, you can probably count scratch in to help

[some-cookie-crumbz]

Huwumi: "I think I'm in love with you and that scares the crap out of me."

Oh, Anon... I am so weak for soft, emotional confessions like this~! 

"Avoidance is the approach of a coward," Father had once told her. It was one of the few pieces of advice he offered her after her Quirk presented and he deemed her a failure. She hadn't thought much about it back then. After all, she had no plans to go into Heroics so it seemed rather impractical of him to give. Especially since it was mere weeks after she'd announced her decision to go into education.

Hindsight, however, revealed that he was correct. And that she, Todoroki Fuyumi, was a damned coward.

She was a little embarrassed about it, if she were honest. She was almost 23 - a grown ass adult! - but she was still playing silly kid games like this. She wanted to blame her students in some small, immature way. When one spends most of the hours of the day interacting with and grading assignments completed by children who are just starting to grasp concepts like the toilet and reading words, one could arguably develop some tendencies gleaned from that age range. Like how her students tended to shy away from new things because they were scary. Typically in the form of one of the students acting up or attempting to derail a lesson to avoid the subject all together.

Which worked great for preschoolers with preschooler problems. Not so much for Fuyumi and her 5'8" of Winged Hero problem.

And a part of her knew she was being silly. It wasn't like Pro Hero Hawks - or Takami Keigo, as she addressed him in private - had done anything to earn the cold shoulder from her. Or, rather, not intentionally or even knowingly. It was just a her problem brought on by her own hang ups and fears. He really didn't deserve the treatment she was giving him and she knew that. And that knowledge only worked to further highlight why her fears were absolutely founded and why avoiding him was the right course of action.

It had all started out from a mutual physical attraction nearly a year prior. It was at one of those charity events where Pros went to rub elbows and grease palms and do other such things she'd been trained to look away from. And it wasn't like she hadn't seen him before. Hawks was a model when he wasn't working as a Pro, for heaven's sake! She'd seen him in magazines in various states of dress and camera filter effect. She'd seen him on the news, all red and gold, zipping to and fro to save civilians. She was aware he was an attractive guy but something about seeing him there, dressed to the nines and his hair slicked back, had certainly done something for her specifically.

And if she ended up spending a portion of that night ushered away from prying eyes with his tongue down her throat? Well, nobody else had to know.

Things continued like that between them; playing like they were teenagers hiding in broom closets all over again. And it was… honestly nice. He wasn't Fuyumi's first foray into relationships but things with Hawks felt different, hit different. The physical side of things were very good and she had no complaints there. A good portion of the people she had dated in the past had done so without any real sincerity. They were just interested in her because of her family ties to the Number Two Pro Hero and what being important to her could win them. After the fourth time someone asked her out for the express purpose of using her to fast track their own Heroics career, she decided to just circumvent the emotional side of things. She would stick rather tightly to friends-with-benefits arrangements to get that infernal itch scratched and then dip the moment a partner started trying to push for more.

But Hawks was different. He didn’t need her for any of that. He was the Number Two by his own merits and skill. He didn’t need to use her as a rung on that social ladder when he was already hovering right at the top.

But that didn’t mean the emotional side of things didn’t still terrify Fuyumi.

And slowly things were becoming less physical. Or, rather, he was seeking her out for more than just a quickie. It started as him walking her home from work every so often, when his shifts and days off lined up properly. It was… nice. He never talked about his own work day when she asked, but he would ask her about hers. He’d listen to her anecdotes about her students and the mayhem they enjoyed causing or the latest plot twist in the drama she was watching. He would hover around the Todoroki estate those days, stay for dinner and watch a few programs with her before leaving for the night. From there, it progressed to him taking her out for lunches or coffees when their days off lined up over the months to follow. They’d talk about this or that and it just felt so right, like she could just be herself and that was enough to keep him engaged with her.

But then he had offered her a smile, chin cupped in one hand and a look that was far too soft in his eyes, and declared, “See, this is the best expression on you. When you talk about something you really care about, your eyes light up and you talk a little faster. It’s cute.”

That exchange had her confronting her own feelings and, unsure of what to do with those epiphanies, she decided to run away. And that was two weeks ago.

“You can’t avoid him forever,” she chided herself as she gathered her things at the end of her day. She’d been able to ignore his texts and calls easily enough, and then been able to dodge him when he stopped by her work by convincing some of her peers to claim she was busy with something or had already left for the day. So far he hadn’t tried to come by the Todoroki estate but she was certain it was only a matter of time. He was well-versed with where she lived and the inner workings of the Todoroki home from their meet-ups. “Eventually you’ll have to talk to Hawks about it.”

“Well, I’m not sure if I’m flattered or concerned that I’ve been on your mind,” Fuyumi didn’t even bother trying to muffle the startled squeak she released as she whipped around to face the figure leaning heavily on the frame of her classroom door. He was still in his Hero uniform, even still sporting his visor, and his headphones hanging at his neck. A small part of her wished he’d been wearing them so that he didn’t hear her.

She took a deep breath to compose herself before standing up a little straighter. “Hawks,” she said, dipping her head politely. Perhaps if she aimed for being politely callous he’d just leave on his own accord. That way she could spare herself having to say anything condemning because saying things out loud would make them all far too real.

He stepped forward and she moved back, watching his movements carefully. She didn’t like that he was wearing his visor. It made it harder for her to read his mood. She had learned that his eyes tended to be the biggest give away to what he was really thinking at any given moment. It was incredibly subtle things she’d noticed - the slightest slackening of his upper lids when he was content, the slimming of his pupils when something displeased him - but she found it all incredibly enthralling. “Oh, so I’m Hawks now? Not Keigo?”

She opened her mouth to make some kind of smart retort back, like calling attention to the fact that he was still adorned in his Hero gear, but the words wouldn’t come. Her hands shifted grip at the edge of her desk behind her, trying to find something to ground her. “I need to get home and start on dinner before Father gets home,” she said, forcing the excuse out and having to resist wincing at how forced the words sounded. 

He moved slowly towards her, like he was approaching a startled animal. Which, she realized, was a pretty fair assessment. If she wanted to make a teasing comparison based strictly on name alone, he was the hawk and she was the field mouse poised on a tree stump in a field. Once he was close enough he settled one hand beside hers on the desk and leaned closer to her. “Look, if I did something to piss you off, just tell me. Ghosting me doesn’t fix anything,” he said, a bite of irritation making his voice a bit harsher than usual.

Not that she blamed him.

“You didn’t,” she said evenly, leaning more heavily against her desk to put just a hair of extra space between them.

“So you’ve been ignoring me for no reason?”

“There’s a reason but it’s not-!” she cut herself off, scowling up at him for a second before fixing her glare on the floor. “It’s not a you thing. It’s a me thing.”

He growled quietly and it startled her enough to look up at him, taking in the frustration and hurt she could just barely make out. “Don’t give me that ‘It’s not you, it’s me,’ bull! Just tell me the truth!” This was exactly what she’d been hoping to avoid. She didn’t want to hurt him. Underneath the bravado of the big, confident playboy, she’d seen he was a genuinely sweet guy. And she knew that, some day, she’d end up hurting him.

She’d hurt them both, but she could deal with breaking her own heart. No, what she dreaded was having to hurt him.

“I think I’m in love with you,” she admitted, forcing herself not to flinch as she watched his body stiffen, “and that… that scares the Hell out of me.”

She was trembling after the words escaped her. She wasn’t sure why she’d let the truth out. Maybe to just rip the bandage off now? Just get it over with and embrace the pain sooner rather than later? She knew she had already started to as the silence between them stretched out and she let her gaze fall. This was it, she told herself as she squeezed her eyes shut. He’d tell her she was crazy and walk away and she’d be hurt for a while and she’d swear off exclusivity again. But then there’s a gloved hand cupping the side of her face and tilting her head up. She felt her shaking get worse as her eyes met his, visor removed, and saw nothing but what she could only call… relief? “What if you weren’t the only one who was scared of that?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

“What?” she breathed as his thumb traced along her cheekbone.

“I’m not exactly versed in the way of relationships,” he laughed quietly, the tension slowly waning from his body. She felt herself start to relax and match him a bit more. “I mean, I wasn’t really raised in an environment where that kinda thing was… given a lot of focus. I’ve had a few other sexual partners, sure, but a committed relationship where it’s about more than that? Never. I never really wanted that until you, Fuyumi.”

She swallowed hard. “I'm not easy to be with,” she mumbled before she could stop herself, her voice cracking and trembling.

“Are you trying to persuade me to walk away? Because that isn’t going to work. I’m not one to just walk away from something once I’ve got my hooks in,” he said, amusement dripping from his words as he pulled her closer. His wings spread out and curled around them, too, as tucked her head under his chin and let them mutually rest against each other. “When you really do want me to go, I’ll go. But until then? You’ll just have to get used to having me around.”

She wanted to tell him he was wrong, because that was a silly thing to say, but she also knew how happy his words made her selfish heart. She knew how much she wanted to hear those words and have them be worth something more than hot air. For as much as she wanted to cling to him she also wanted to shove him away. Because good things never lasted for Fuyumi. Good things in her life were fickle; either leaving abruptly like her brother and mother, or being nothing but surface level like her past partners. For as much as she wanted something or someone good to be permanent, she knew it wasn’t.

She closed her eyes and let herself melt into his embrace, forcing her mind to shut down as her fingers curled in the material of his jacket.

Dear God did she want this to be the one good thing that didn’t fade.

☕️ GFA?

Thank you! It’s another long one lol.

SO like, I like it. I think it’s a genuinely great finale. Every character gets a fitting ending that suits them, usually in a sad way but sometimes positively. I kinda wish Potter and/or Margaret experienced some tragedy like the draftees do, but oh well, they got the least focus in the finale so that’s okay. I thought Klinger’s ending was sweet, Charles and Mulcahy’s effectively tragic, Margaret’s fine (she makes a decision contrary to her father’s opinion, I’ll take it), Potter’s... idk he gave his horse away and retired, it was unmemorable.

But what I’m really about here is BJ and Hawkeye’s plot, especially Hawkeye’s, so I’m just gonna gush about that mostly.

I love just about everything about Hawkeye in the hospital. I love how inevitable it feels, the show staying on point to build up to it since like, the seventh episode. The only sane response to an insane situation is to go insane, and we finally see it happen to Hawk for real. And it’s well done too, I prefer this take on a breakdown over pretty much everything we’ve seen before from Hawkeye and incidental characters. It feels more lowkey and character-focused and less sensationalized than, say, hysterical paralysis, or hypnosis recovering buried memories, or psychosomatic sneezing, or hallucinations, etc. We got the traumatic amnesia for the sake of the dramatic reveal and we got mania, we don’t need more than that.

And like, I love how they went for a manic breakdown instead of say depression and listlessness. They could’ve communicated Hawkeye’s MI through making him feel different and unHakweye-like (and we have seen him appear depressed in other episodes so it wouldn’t come out of nowhere), but instead they heightened the aspects we associate most strongly with him, and it works so well. The jokes, the word-association ranting, the energy, the emotion, the anger turned outwards instead of sideways. I adore it.

Like before I watched the episode I was very nervous about it because I knew I’d be very picky about how a mid-breakdown Hawkeye is characterized and I assumed I’d be disappointed, but nope, the show nailed it imo. Like I was beaming during the phone call scene lol, Hawkeye refusing to let them off the awkward hook by making angry joke after joke about it. Like “Just remember, every day you keep your best surgeon here you're killing patients :)" had me heart-eyed for the writing and acting lol. And then when he went on his rant about gaslighting after BJ triggered him? Chef kiss.

I also loved that he wasn’t cured when he remembered, or even after being discharged. It’s a low bar, but I have low expectations when it comes to old media and MI so Hawkeye still being a little manic when he’s back at the 4077 and Sidney coming down for a follow up was a pleasant surprise.

And then there’s BJ. This episode was both fantastic and terrible for him lol, in that it was an excellent, accurate, fitting portrayal of his character, and he was just awful in it. The first one to start playing hot potato with the phone call, talking about his baby child in front of Hawkeye when he’s well aware of what caused Hawkeye’s breakdown, acting inconvenienced when Hawkeye predictably gets triggered instead of remourseful (I will grant that this is obviously all in part to foreshadow the incident while preserving the mystery, but I can’t say it’s ooc), then - the wildest part to me - appearing hurt that Hawkeye doesn’t open the emotional door BJ can’t open himself and offer a heartfelt goodbye, because Hawkeye isn’t a mind-reader... then of course leaving without a goodbye or a note (having had plenty of time to prepare in advance while knowing he might not be able to say goodbye in the hospital, since he asks Sidney about it).

This all makes perfect sense for how consistently emotionally withdrawn and unsupportive he is, for how the pattern has always been Hawkeye supporting him no matter how awful Hawkeye might be feeling (eg Period of Adjustment), and for the theme of BJ being emotionally divided by making friends with Hawkeye and denying that by just silently escaping. But man it sucks for Hawkeye lol.

So BJ gets a do over, and even then he jerks Hawkeye around for ages with his refusal to say goodbye no matter how much Hawkeye needs to hear it. Obviously this leads to the touching final shot with the “note” and I think the writers did a great job of building up to that to make it feel conclusive and emotional, as well as meaningful to the characters and not just to the audience.

Like I adore that the emotional core of the finale is Hawkeye and BJ’s flawed friendship, and that we see those flaws in this episode but we also see how much they mean to each other. We got like half an hour of goodbyes here, and Hawk + BJ get the climactic spot, which is fantastic. The climax of BJ’s character arc is admitting his friendship with Hawkeye affected him, and I think it works, thematically. (On a watsonian level I don’t think the goodbye scene makes up for how emotionally evasive BJ was even in just this episode, let alone throughout the show, but it’s still a nice gesture.)

It’s also a great capstone to the little thread of Hawkeye’s reoccuring pattern of abandonment and it’s an a+ choice to work that into the finale to make the goodbye feel that much more climactic and satisfying. The writers honestly did a magnificent job of making this finale resonate with these characters in ways that have barely even been discussed verbally in the show, but are still on full display.

Like I’ve mentioned this before but I think “What if I was dying, would you hold me in your arms or would you let me lie there and bleed?” is an absolutely perfect line for Hawk to say to BJ, because it’s about BJ’s recurring pattern of refusing to be there for him emotionally. BJ will help Hawkeye if there’s something concrete he can do, but if there isn’t, he won’t just stay at his side and be supportive, he will toss him in the dirt and run away (Depressing News, Blood and Guts, most of Back Pay, Give Em Hell Hawkeye, The Grim Reaper, etc). I love how it becomes a significant aspect of the finale.

It’s just such good character writing, especially in an episodic show with iffy continuity in general.

Also speaking of character writing and continuity, I love how inevitable it is that Hawkeye is traumatized by the death of a child too. The show built up to that so successfully imo, From Hawk’s Nightmare to What’s Up Doc to Dreams etc etc. I think especially as a call-back to Letters, where the one thing keeping him going is being able to save an innocent life... kinda indicates that what Hawkeye lost in the finale was his ability to live with being part of the war machine imo. Also why I think driving the jeep into the O-Club was to some extent a suicide attempt. I’m not sure how purposeful that is though bc while Letters is def part of the lead up to the finale, the weapons repair bit is never addressed again and then Hawkeye salutes Potter lol so yk. But it’s a connection I like.

Aaaaand lastly I’m not sure how I feel about Hawkeye quitting surgery. I mean I think it’s awful and tragic and the worst possible thing for him, but I’m not sure if the writing also thinks that? It’s definitely meant to be the war affecting Hawkeye, but the way it’s phrased as wanting to be a small town family doctor and get to know his patients... feels a little too romanticized. Plus the way it comes after he gets back into surgery at the 4077 does seem like a way to try to distance that decision from the immediate trauma and make it seem like a more reasonable career choice. But like, it fucking sucks, it’s tragic, surgery is the one thing Hawkeye has ever wanted to do, and to end with him quitting his career track is so loaded, like how can you see it as anything but the war destroying him? So that’s like my one big question mark when it comes to the finale lol.

I think that’s about it. Thank you for asking!

send me a ☕️ and a topic and i’ll talk about how i feel about it
