#LNitV family tree

[catastrophic-crow]

haha hey—quick question...

(spoilers for @five-rivers' incredible BNHA fic Long Night in the Valley on ao3)

what is this? what relationship is this???

is was? (do vestiges count?) is hibiki AfO's child?

(i just double-checked and it sure seems like it in the fic. how many kids has he had?? clearly he's not that close to all of them...)

that's wild, and i can't wait to learn more about the contest of that. (wait. izuku makes the second time AfO's kid has had OfA?? dear gods.)

also—shouldn't there be a link one of these places?

or did [Shigaraki Hibiki / Shimura Souma / Four / the Fourth OfA User] marry into (or at least reproduce with) someone from an existing family named Shimura, and just took that name while a different member of that family line had a descendant who later married into the "multiple generations" descended from [Three / the Third OfA User / Harmony Trey(?) / "Miura" / Thunderclap]? that [Shimira Nana / Seven / the Seventh OfA User / Skyrunner] came from? (dear gods they really all do have a bunch of names you weren't hanging a lantern for nothing when izuku said that)

that's—okay; let me rephrase that.

did [Four] create the name Shimura? or marry into it?

was Shimura [Seven]'s original family name, or did she marry into it?

did [Seven] get the Shimura name from [Four]? either by being a direct descendant or having married a direct descendant?

if not, did [Four]'s spouse have a relative of the same family name, whose descendant passed it along to [Seven] (again, either through marriage or having been born into it)?

or were [Four] and [Seven] just. separate Shimuras? because to be quite honest it would be hilarious if in this family wreath of a genealogy chart, there were two people who came by the same last name and didn't share an additional relation for it.

also! hey! Doctor Garaki is supposed to be on here somewhere! oh, nevermind—there he is. garaki's parent was the original user of stockpile? stockpile came from AfO and [One / first One for All user / Shigaraki Kazuki]'s nephew?? what, did it mutate to stockpile years for Garaki Kyūdai's longevity quirk or something?

just. dear gods. i am very impressed by this family tree (now that I've spent a while wrapping my head around it) but as many questions as it answers, it just raises more 😅

My current, noodle-like family tree for LNitV.

How much of this will be relevant? I don't know. But the parts that are...

If I had a nickel for every time you’ve posted an overcomplicated family tree for a fandom I would have two nickels*. Which isn’t much but it’s weird that it happened twice.

(*I’ve only seen the lnitv one and the dp one my apologies if you made more and I just haven’t seen them)

Neither my computer nor my phone will show me your emojis, so I'm just going to assume that they indicate an appropriate level of respect and fear for my person.

(And, yes, those are the only two fandoms I've made trees for, but in my opinion the LNitV one is worse.)

So I tried to see if anyone asked this before but I'm on mobile. Does Izuku know all Might writes fanfics because of their mental link? Also do the vestiges of the previous holders help?

I've taken so long to answer this, because it's hard to decide. There are so many funny ways to take this.

I would say that Izuku does not know All Might writes fanfics... but if All Might so much as thinks about them while they're still under the influence of this quirk, that will change in a hurry. (As it is, the 1-A kids are planning on spreading the information, so...)

All Might is not consciously aware of the vestiges helping, but if you've seen my LNitV family tree, you know how they are about adopting unattended (or even attended) children. So.

The updated LNitV family tree is utterly batshit, it’s beautiful

Thank you, that's the intent. :)
