#Gotta say wingman Monoma WOULD be HILARIOUS

I keep forgetting to post about this all the while it’s only become less and less likely to mean anything in canon… but can we talk for a second anyways on how Monoma’s the only person on the battlefield right now who actually knows the reason Deku’s black whip awakened in the first place, the reason for Deku losing control for the first time during the Joint Training arc was because of Bakugo?
Remember how even when All Might and Bakugo asked what triggered blackwhip Deku was like “I dunno,” y’know, like a liar?
The only people in the manga who know specifically what Monoma said to trigger black whip, is, well, Monoma himself, plus probably Shinsou. Almost certainly Shinsou actually.
It’s even strongly implied it was Shinsou’s idea for Monoma to mock Bakugo specifically. He was shown evesdropping on their friendly banter, no doubt for strategic purposes.
Shinsou knew he got Deku to talk by mocking his friends before, during the Joint Training arc he’s observing for specific friends to target.
I dunno I just find it oddly funny how Monoma of all people is one of only two people to know this particularly dramatic clue that Bakugo is literally Midoriya’s berserk button.
Heckin Monoma, why is this so oddly funny. Shinsou too, this is such a neat setup. Even for a platonic reading of BakuDeku, putting Monoma in this situation is just so bizzarely funny to me, like, I was honestly expecting Monoma to get a flashback of the Joint Training arc when Deku lost it in the recent arc over thinking Bakugo died… but okay, to be fair, perhaps Monoma hadn’t had enough reason to connect the dots quite yet. But maybe now he does? 🤔
Eh, or maybe I’m overanalyzing things.
