MY HERO ACADEMIA MASTERLIST

The war was over, but the scars it left behind were far from healed, both physical and emotional.

Bakugo lay in the hospital bed, his body covered in bandages, his mind foggy from the painkillers.

The room was quiet, the beeping of machines the only sound as you sat beside him, waiting for him to wake up. Your heart was heavy with the knowledge of the painful news you had to deliver when he woke.

Slowly, Bakugo's eyes fluttered open, confusion and disorientation clear in his gaze. “Where... where am I?" he muttered, his voice hoarse and weak.

You leaned closer, taking his hand in yours. "You're in the hospital, Katsuki.”

His eyes narrowed as he tried to sit up, wincing in pain. "What happened?"

You took a deep breath, holding his remaining hand. "Katsuki, there's something you need to know."

His eyes, still foggy, tried to focus on you. "Spit it out," he muttered, impatience tinged with a hint of fear.

"Your arm," you began, struggling to keep your voice steady. "They couldn't save it. It was too damaged."

Bakugo's gaze darted around the room, panic rising as he tried to move his right arm and found it wouldn't respond. "What the hell?" he gasped, looking down at the empty space where his arm used to be. "What... What the fuck!"

Tears filled your eyes as you squeezed his remaining hand. "I'm so sorry," you whispered, barely moving your lips, tears welling up in your eyes. "They did everything they could."

Bakugo's face contorted with a mix of disbelief and rage. "My quirk... it was in my palms. How am I supposed to be a hero now? No... no, no, no!" he shouted, struggling to sit up, only to fall back onto the bed, his body too weak to support him. "This can't be happening!"

You tried to hold him, to calm him, but he pushed you away with his remaining hand, his eyes wild with fear and anger. "Get away from me!"

"Katsuki, please," you begged, tears streaming down your face as you reached out your hand to place it on his shoulder. "I'm here for you. We can get through this together. We’ll find a way…"

Bakugo screamed, his voice breaking. "Don’t touch me! I'm useless! I'm fucking nothing! And you want to find a way?" he scoffed, his voice rising. "There is no way! I'm useless without my quirk!"

His words cut deep, but you refused to give up on him. "You're still a hero, Katsuki. You're still the strongest person I know…”

He turned his face away, tears of rage and frustration streaming down his cheeks. "Just leave me alone, woman. I want to be fucking alone. Get the fuck out!”

You left the room, your heart shattered and tears streaming down your flushed cheeks, but you vowed to yourself that you wouldn't give up on him.

Days turned into weeks, and Bakugo's anger only seemed to grow. He lashed out at everyone, pushing away those who tried to help. Bakugo's mood grew darker as he struggled to come to terms with his loss.

He spent hours in physical therapy, not to regain strength, but to punish himself for his perceived weakness.

One evening, you found him in the hospital gym, punching a bag with his remaining hand until his knuckles bled. 

"Katsuki, stop!" you gasped, covering your mouth with curled palm.

He ignored you, his breath coming in ragged gasps, tears mingling with sweat. "I can't... I can't do this," he panted.

You approached him quickly, and grabbed his arm, forcing him to look at you. "You're destroying yourself. This isn't helping."

"And what do you think you know?" he spat, his eyes wild. "You still have both your arms. You still can live and enjoy your sweet life, goddammit!”

“And I want to live it with you," you said fiercely, refusing to let go. "But you need to let me in. You need to let me help you."

His anger gave way to despair, and he sank to the floor, covering his face with his hand. "I don't know how."

You knelt beside him, wrapping your arms around him. "We'll figure it out together. You're not alone, Katsuki. Not ever."

Slowly, painfully, Bakugo began to accept your help, allowing you to be his support as he navigated this new reality.

Everyone, including you, his parents and his friends stood by his side through it all, offering support, encouragement, and love.

The therapy sessions became less about punishing himself and more about finding a way to live again.

Slowly but surely, Bakugo regained his confidence, finding new ways to use his quirk and his skills to remain a hero. He still had moments of doubt, moments where he cursed his fate and his limitations.

Those moments became less frequent, replaced by a determination to rise above his challenges.

"I love you," he said one morning, out of the blue, as you approached him in front of the classroom, bringing him bento you’ve prepared for him.

You turned to him, surprised but pleased. "I love you too, Katsuki."

He smirked, a shadow of his old self shining through as he leaned forward and placed a tiny kiss to the top of your head, accepting the box. "I know. And I'm gonna prove to you that I'm still the best damn hero around."

You laughed, feeling a warmth spread through your chest. "I never doubted it for a second."

Bakugo found solace in the realization that he could still be the hero he always aspired to be.

Reca is a perfectionist

…to a concerning degree

Nobody quite figured out why he obsessed so much about every detail of every project,

or why he got so frustrated when a mistake slipped through the cracks,

at the end of the day, people still praise his works like masterpieces

All he can think of however is his fathers voice ringing in his head

Never enough

He’ll never be good enough

Not unless everything is perfect

I think I solved the “That six-fingered nerd hasn’t been himself in 30 years” line.

People have been wondering for years if Shifty had somehow met Stan during the 30 year gap, or what else that line could possibly mean. But if he could have left the bunker, I doubt he would still be living down there. I think there’s a different explanation.

By that point in the episode, Dipper had already said they were looking for the author, that he had gone missing.

Hear me out: Shifty’s in denial about Ford’s disappearance.

Stanford was so preoccupied with Bill’s betrayal and trying to block him out that he didn’t have time to go back to the bunker. He had been planning to go back after the portal was finished, but obviously the threat of possession and Bill invading the dimension kept him away. Fiddleford certainly wouldn’t come back, even if he had his memories intact.

And then Ford got pushed into the portal.

Shifty wouldn’t be privy to this information, especially if he was trapped in the bunker. Even if there was something wrong with the cryogenic chamber and he unthawed a few months after the initial freeze, he wouldn’t have known.

I think he spent those decades in the bunker trying to dig a way out, but being blocked by the metal lining. That’s why he was still down there by the time Dipper and crew investigated.

It must have felt like the slightly nicer scientist, the one that at least found him entertaining, had abandoned him. Either he meant so little to Ford that he forgot all about the bunker [a possibility if they were only keeping him to be frozen], or Stanford intentionally left him to starve should he ever unthaw.

So imagine someone telling you that the scientist has been missing all this time. For 30 years you’ve been resenting this person for how he treated you and threw you away in a glorified tomb, but now that’s being challenged.

Blaming the scientists for everything was easy to process:

The only time he saw the sun was when he hatched, then Ford put him in a cage underground. With no intention of ever letting him see the sun again, or any live animals.

The only food was canned, and it wasn’t even designed for pets. They just fed him baked beans.

They wouldn’t trust him to look at their faces. Fiddleford hated him and wanted to freeze him. Ford only seemed to like him because he was a “pet”.

It was easy for Shifty to tell himself that these neglectful men left him to die in a metal box underground. That they hated him all along, or saw him as an animal and forgot they left him in the ice chamber.

But Ford’s disappearance called that into question. He knew Ford was the author of the journals, from begging to get to read them. The nicer of the two scientists. The one that was at least hesitant to freeze him in a tube for all eternity, just for being a shapeshifter. The one that was interested in his powers, instead of repulsed.

It would be painful to admit the possibility that Stanford planned to come back. That he might have died 30 years ago, and that was the real reason why Shifty was left alone in the bunker. The possibility that Ford died was a heavy one already. Shifty never saw his parents. This scientist was the first face he saw when he hatched, for better or for worse, Ford was the closest thing to a parent Shifty had.

“That six-fingered nerd hasn’t been himself for 30 years!”

He couldn’t have died, he just… He changed. That’s why he never came back, he just stopped acting like himself!

Headcanon 16

I’m saying this is Headcanon 16 and just rolling with it.

Anyway,

The Vex love Scar. They enjoy his pranks, they like him being a vexling. He has all the charisma, and chaos, and most of all obedience of a good Vexling. He was Chosen by the vex especially.

Cub wasn’t.

The Vex hate Cub. Cub’s disobedient, and asks questions, and gets defensive, and doesn’t understand that he does what they say. And, the Vex like picking a favourite of Vexling pairs.

Cub was never properly Chosen to be Vexling. The Vex just realised he could be a good puppet for them, and could protect Scar. So he became a Vexling too. And ever since that day, they made Cub aware that Scar was the Good Vexling, and he was the Bad Vexling. The Vex forced Cub to be the Jingler, and be forced into a horrific state of half-possession, aware of everything and but unable to move on his own. And Scar knew that the Vex bullied Cub, but there was nothing he could do to stop them except swear to protect Cub from them, whatever it took.

i get wanting to differentiate Dick and Jason by giving Jason a different Robin costume, but i think it makes more sense that he kept it the exact same in an attempt to gain Dick’s approval and show him that he just wants to carry on his legacy.

poor kid probably also thought (wrongly so, but trauma does stuff and all) that his place in the Wayne family was precarious as hell and thought that the best way to get them to let him stay was to emulate Dick the best he could. which is a terribly sad reflection to have because now all i can think about is that this would mean none of them really knew Jason before he died because he only ever showed them a distorted version of himself.

cue Jason coming back from the dead, acting like a completely different person because he no longer cares what they think of him (he actually really does but he convinced himself that nothing he could do could make them love him after everything he did).

[part-time-zombie]

Every side has their own notebooks/journals that they use to log things they find important. Most of them don't know the others have ones too, as they're all usually kept private.

Logan keeps recordings of important information (and anything said to him that he considers stupid), Patton has a scrapbook full of fun/formative memories, Virgil writes down his deepest fears and stores them away, and Janus keeps track of gossip he gathers from the others.

The twins are different when it comes to what is writen down. Remus usually maps out his next scheme, with the pages looking strangely scientific, or he'll jot down some of his worse ideas.

Roman keeps two different books. One of them is filled with verbatim quotes from the other sides, namely the insults and criticisms they've given him. He keeps track of who said what and when, with Logan currently having said the highest number of hurtful things to him over the years. The notebook is painfully full, with only a few empty pages left.

His other book is currently collecting dust in the back of his closet, untouched for years. It's only about a quarter-way filled, despite it being used in tandem with the other notebook. This one is the counterpart of the first notebook, it's contents being every compliment and word of praise given to him. Patton was in the lead when he last updated it, but if you scan some of the earlier pages you'll find one of them littered with fresh tear marks as one phrase was harshly crossed over, enough to nearly tear the page:

"You're my hero"

Satosugu head canon that Suguru puts 1 sugar in his coffee after satoru kept complaining that his kisses were tasting bitter.

[avonne-writes]

Now not to be sad on main after the beautiful answer you gave to my latest ask, but the fact that John is so afraid of people leaving and Gale wishes for him to never have to go through it again made me think about what will happen once they're old and, you know... the fact that someone has to go first, as the saying goes 💔

I'm sorry I just had to share this painful thought! 😭

RE: this post

I know, I couldn’t help but think about the same too 😭💔 Already when they're young, Bucky thinks about this sometimes, and he’s terrified. Then, several years later, Georgia dies. It’s the natural order of things, but it forces Bucky not only to cope with the loss of his mom but to confront the idea of his and Gale's own mortality. It’s a difficult period for them both.

More sad thoughts and MCD after the cut. Warning for angst.

Imagine if Gale knows that he’s going to pass first, how much Bucky's denial of it would break his heart. Because Bucky would deny it to the last moment. Gale would feel like not being able to spare Bucky from this final goodbye is a failure of his, and he’d try to hang on and fight but the body has its limits.

Adding Bucky's wish for Gale to this makes it even more painful. Because he would make sure that Gale knows how much he loves him even in those last moments, and Gale would close his eyes for the last time filled with so much love and gratitude that it would drown out the pain.

It's just as painful if Bucky dies first. If he knew his last lucid moments were coming, he’d cling to Gale a lot, and Gale would be scared of leaving him alone even for five seconds. The hospital would make special arrangements for him to be able to stay with Bucky. And they don’t really know which moment is the last only once it has passed, but Gale makes sure he keeps telling Bucky he’s there, he’s there. And Bucky would try to tell him one last time that his love will always stay with Gale even after he’s gone.

Given that this would be after 60-70 years of a relationship, no matter who dies first, the other wouldn’t be long to follow.

More Rescue Bots Academy headcanons (this time with extra angst)

Wedge has a twin/splitspark named Axle, who Wedge both misses and despises at the same time

When he was younger, Medix was considered a 'hard-to-handle' child

In reality, he had undiagnosed Autism and didn't do well with others

As of now, he is currently taking medication for it (rescue work gets overstimulating very fast), though it took several prescriptions to find one that didn't kill his personality

Hoist and Whirl are absolute besties

Hotshot was bullied as a kid, which gave him a major inferiority complex

He stopped getting bullied shortly after joining his Cube team, but any insult still hurts him

Whirl feels like an absolute fraud whenever somebody says she's a good rescue bot because she's a scraplet colony pretending to be a bot

She knows it's for her own safety, but she still feels terrible about it

There have been times where late at night, Hoist will get scared by his own reflection if he's in dinomode

He says he's not scared anymore, but he's a little jumpy

Hotshot and the rest of his Cube team have flame designs painted on their heels because they think they're cool

Medix has spent countless hours trying to understand why so many bots don't seem to like him - he does what he's supposed to, so why doesn't anybody want to be around him?

Whirl is almost always hungry because she won't eat metal

It isn't necessary for her to survive, so she refuses to indulge her scraplet mind, but Primus, does it leave her hungry

Wedge gets severe imposter syndrome sometimes

Hoist can be pretty anxious sometimes, especially when he feels like he's already inconveniencing people

Medix listens to hyperpop

Mother-Truckin' Klance hc

Lance's dad would find and fix vintage cars, so Lance grew up with an affinity for old cars, specifically trucks. When they return to Earth after the war, Keith mentions something about fixing up his dad's old truck, so of course, Lance is like, "My dad's practically a mechanic and I help him all the time. I'll come with :)". When they make it back to Keith's desert shed, and Keith shows Lance the truck, Lance loses his marbles. Like, won't shut up about the model and how it's in such good shape for being left alone for so long. Keith just invites him to stay and help him fix it up because he could use the help, and it's the first time he's seen Lance this happy since they lost Allura.

Spy’s Disguise Headcanon Time!

TW: Loss, body horror, angst

The glitchy disguise kit should have been rejected by BLU Spy’s body the first time he tried to use it. But the fact that he was able to keep transforming with it meant that his body accepted it.

Personally, I think that the disguise kit has its own programming that was at risk of being overwritten when it glitched. Maybe the brain and nerve endings sent new commands to the kit when Spy first tried a building disguise.

Either way, the machine aspects of CyberSpy were under his control for a while, like an extension of his actual human body. It didn’t seem at all difficult to get a certain part that functioned like a real building, and it didn’t even take a verbal command.

While this felt like an excellent new tool in the eyes of Buddy Engineer and CyberSpy, it was actually a massive red flag. His body shouldn’t have accepted foreign metal and unnatural transformations. It should have attacked the machinery like a virus. He should have had pain signals all over his body telling him that the machine was dangerous.

Instead, the building aspects assimilated in his body. He didn’t even need the kit to transform past the first incident, which was also a massive red flag. They not only began acting as flesh and weapons, they began acting as an immune system.

The problem is, these mechanical parts were never, ever meant to be part of the human body. They were never designed to protect the body from harm like white blood cells, and had no backup programming should something like this happen.

When Spy took fatal damage, the machine aspects went haywire trying to repair him. The Medic that was always sent to deal with respawn failures had barely interacted with his patient when this became apparent.

I imagine that any attempt to insert an IV or make an incision was met with uncontrolled transformations. The false immune system was trying to protect the body, but was too powerful and unpredictable for the doctor to fix this cyber-mess.

Dr Ludwig was called in after the whole RED team permanently died and most of the local BLU engineers were slaughtered. It’s possible that that particular BLU team was mostly just Engineers, and that might have been why Spy knew how to kill one in the first place.

Maybe they used healing dispensers instead of hiring a local BLU Medic. But that didn’t absolve Buddy Engineer and CyberSpy from their involvement in the deaths. They didn’t report the glitch. They didn’t try to fix it when it first occurred.

They embraced it. Spy kept using these new, unnatural powers without any regard to his health or how unfair the battle would be. Over and over again, the symbiotic relationship between his natural body and this machine was tested and strengthened.

Maybe a Medic could have cut out the invasive metal when the incident first occurred. Maybe there was a way to prevent this from getting so severe. But by the time they called in Dr. Ludwig, it was far too late.

It didn’t take long for the devastating consequences to rear their head. There was no way to stop whatever mutations the glitch had caused. Before, Spy could switch back and forth between human flesh and machine. He started to lose that control.

In response to his injuries and the threat of more created by hallucinations, the metal became dominant. He couldn’t make the buildings go back to being dormant; they replaced parts of his body. He looked the part of a cyborg, whether anyone liked it or not.

Like an infection, it continued to spread. CyberSpy’s declining mental state only made the metal infection spread rapidly. Paranoia and hallucinations set in, and made the machine wary of any person who Spy didn't recognize.

It only took three months for him to get so bad that his head and neck was the last of his humanity, and Buddy Engineer was the only person who could interact with him without being fired at. By four months his mind was gone. Only the machine remained.

Buddy Engineer kept the machine, which somehow remained docile towards him. He kept fixing it and insisting on keeping the battery and fuel tank from running empty. In his mind, that would mean death.

The new teammates went from supportive to concerned. They could see that Buddy Engineer wouldn’t let Spy go, even though he had long since died. They feared that he’d lose his mind talking to that robot much longer. So they reported him to the Admin.

She had the machine confiscated, to Buddy Engineer’s fury. He tried to break into her storage to make sure “Spy” didn’t power down, but he already had by the time he fought enough underlings and found the right crate. Admin had him dismissed from BLU and barred from joining RED.

Grey Mann wanted an army of robots, and he wanted good engineers to design them. Buddy Engineer agreed to help him, even with the annoying caveat that they had to use money as fuel.

He wasn’t the only disgraced Engineer who agreed to Grey Mann’s offer, so they divided up the workload.

Buddy Engineer insisted on designing the robo-spy. He based it off of the lifeless machine that his friend became. Of course, he didn’t trust Grey Mann worth spit, so anything that didn’t directly have to do with Spy work was left out of the manufactured bots. No machine guns or jet packs.

Even so, Buddy’s extremely detailed work impressed the boss, and inspired the others to collaborate with him on the most complicated of the robo-mercs.

Can we talk about a moment I think has a LOT of angst potential from the qsmp? When forever became president, he left a very passive aggressive message to Phil about how he 'could have been the first lady', wich from a content creator perspective is very funny and silly but . . . From an 'in world' perspective? That whole dialog and encounter was kinda heartbreaking.

Think of this from Q!Phil's perspective as a character! He is very openly against governments as a whole! He was against the vote to the point that he said he wassnt going to vote at all, he finds breaking the federations rules funny, and he holds no respect towards cucurucho at all. He's never hidden that he was an anarchist!

And after so long of forever not pursuing him, phil probably started to belive that maybe forever really had finally accepted his refusal! They had several encounters since forever 'proposed' to Phil, and it all seemed very within Phil's boundaries as a platonic relationship! Then, the day forever wins the election, he gets a book telling him essentially that forever DIDN'T actually give up on him! Not only that, but he obviously hadn't been listening to Phil at all, seeing as how his big 'gotcha' was assuming Phil would regret not getting a position in the government.

From phils perspective this really showed how little forever paid attention to him, just like he had always suspected! This proved to Phil that forever had only ever paid attention to his looks, not who phil WAS as a person! Can you imagine how that must feel? Realizing that forever hadn't really changed at all?

Angsty Jeff Headcanons

TW: Angst, mentions of abuse, self harm, murder (attempted and succeeded), death, mention of guns, mentions of being locked up, homelessness

Before being reunited with Liu, Jeff would come to his empty grave and put his favorite flowers (which are orchids) or small things that remind Jeff of Liu. He did it as apologies to Liu for what he did.

Jeff has an extreme fear of guns due to his trauma from his dad trying to kill him while his mother held him down on the bed and would literally have a panic attack the second he hears gunshots.

Jeff would often cut himself in the bathroom when his self esteem problems hit.

His parents would often call him the mistake child and hit him whenever he did something wrong.

He refuses to go in the basement sometimes because it reminds him of how his parents locked him in the basement as a form of punishment.

He still has nightmares from the night he went crazy and Liu or Ben (sometimes both) have to comfort him and calm him down.

Before coming to the Slender Manor and for a year after he moved in, Jeff wore a mask to hide his smile because of how people called him a freak and a monster after the accident.

Jeff killed innocent people as a way to relief some stress and anger from the outside world.

Jeff was homeless before coming into the Manor because people were too terrified of him and only wanted to throw him in jail.

During his time of homelessness, Jeff would only eat what was edible and pickpocket people for their money (if there was nothing to eat or if he didn't have enough money, he would go to sleep hungry).

Jeff had extreme trust issues when he first moved into the Slender Manor because of how he was so used to how the outside world treated him. He wouldn't even leave his room on most days.
