What the heck happened to Trumpet's face? I like his hair though. These are all cute.

Heeeeey! Look what I've done here! What resins! I want to make either micro stands or keychains, or both. I could make a pack of them.

That's a good glow up of the boss without messing with his original design too much.

His nose should still be bigger than a person's forearm, LOL!

ReDestro: “Where is Shigaraki?”

Spinner: “It’s his gaming time.”

ReDestro: “Gaming time? We have important things to discuss. Skeptic, go retrieve Shigaraki.”

Spinner: “I wouldn’t do that—”

Skeptic walking into Shigaraki’s room.

Skeptic: “OW!— FUCK.”

Skeptic running back out.

ReDestro: “What happened?”

Skeptic: “HE BIT ME!”

Spinner: “I tried to warn you.”

OMG this beautiful art work.

Whoa, this was a good read! I'm glad someone took the time to flesh these characters out (and I'm still reading the lore post here and there. I'll reblog it when I'm done).

ReDestro's name meaning, 'bottomless darkness-unfathomable gloominess' brings an interesting level of depth to a character who is always smiling but who cries when a colleague dies and who also will break someone like a twig if they talk bad about his ideology.

In my writings, rather than make ReDestro and Trumpet ex lovers, I'm doing the unrealized sexual tension that never gets resolved. ReDestro can't ask that of Trumpet if he knows he obeys him without question. Then it's a matter of...is it real? -Or meerly because he believes I have the right?

Going forward, I will adopt this fanon lore as canon in my writings.

The MLA(/PLF) Headcanon Post (1/2)

In response to this nice ask about whether I have any headcanon or thoughts about the current members of the MLA/PLF, I spent two weeks blithering 16.5K words of exactly that into a Word file, because when it comes to underappreciated characters I love, I do not understand restraint.  This post and its follow-up will cover all ranked ex-MLA members of the PLF, as well as Original Flavor Destro and Curious, since I wasn’t going to leave them out of a project like this even if they aren’t “current.”

The ask only mentioned having previously read The Lore Post, the last exercise in ridiculousness that I wrote at the tail end of MLA Week, so I wrote this to summarize everything that doesn’t appear there—which is to say that a lot of the material in these two posts will look familiar to anyone who’s read my fanfic about the MLA cast.  There’s still plenty of new material to go around too, though!

So, I don’t have much in the vein of askblog-style headcanons where I can randomly tell you stray trivia about a character’s favorite foods or their love languages or what have you; that stuff either comes up when I’m writing fanfic or it doesn’t.  That said, below, please find a mix of thoughts I keep in mind when writing characters, facts that have only turned up in my fanfic/notes so far and not the Lore Post meta, and a selection of lightning round headcanon provided by cross-referencing a random number generator with some old questionnaires I keep around for OCs and tabletop characters.

In this post: Destro, Re-Destro and his advisors, and Geten.

They Have Done Nothing Bad Ever (Promise)

[itsnothingofinterest]

This is probably a weird note to end my time with MHA's run on; but I find it so strange how I still see people calling Tomura out on just being a destruction-hungry villain with supposedly no plan or follow up...as though he is unique for that simplicity. Especially after the ending we got. Like, Deku and All Might never really had a plan when they were reshaping society by beating up the enemy and everything worked out fine for them, but does anyone call them out for just using violence to mindlessly solve everything with no further plan? (Well, yes. Me. Right now.)

Because like, really thinking about it; how different was All Might's plan from the start of his career to take down AFO and become a symbol, and Deku's plan to end the villains and bring everything back, from Shigaraki's plan to end hero society and bring about a world accommodating to the League? It all seemed to boil down to the same basic premise of Step 1) Beat everyone & everything making things worse, Step 2) ...it all just kind of works out from there. (I guess All Might planned on being inspiring and uplifting, but then we could also count Tomura's plan to be imposing and...uplifting but for different people. Deku was winging it every step of the way though.) Everyone's getting on Tomura's case for doing nothing but destroying; but all evidence from when the heroes do it suggests violence & destruction works. And it just never fails to bug me when people call Tomura out for stuff that's fine when heroes do it.

Which, yeah, let's touch on how it did just work out for Deku that way for no logical reason, least of all anything he planned. He punched out the big bad just like All Might and now things are like a hundred times better than they were under All Might with no more Tenkos abandoned in the street. If stuff like that just happens if you punch out your enemies hard enough, then why couldn't that happen for Tomura? Maybe if he had destroyed the government & hero society it would've, idk, been so fear/awe-inspiring that all the villains would've been nice and cooperative under the PLF and everything would've been fine. Or something. No more contrived than what we saw with the old lady plot line, MHA is just a series where that stuff works out. Heck, one time it actually did just work out that way for Tomura:

Again, violence and destruction works in MHA. I mean; duh, it's a shonen manga.

Plus all this is ignoring the fact that, unlike those two, Tomura did have a follow up to the violence. He did have a step two, or at least one & a half, after "beat down all the bad guys in the country." Rather than just going "and everything will work out from there," he had his guys plan for the future so he could say "and Spinner, Toga, and RD et. all will make sure everything works out from there." (Admittedly, not much; but also, not hopes and dreams.) He did have a plan, it was just the plan from the Overahul arc, where he was last asked to have a plan: leave it to his allies.

And hey, that means it's actually better than what we saw from genius All Might and brainiac Deku. So why are we still, even after everything was over, acting like there's some expectation as a villain he didn't meet? I guess it's just in the nature of a 'tantrum-having man-child who wants nothing but destruction' to put more forethought into the future he wants to build than the society-uplifting greatest heroes.

That or maybe everyone had really detailed follow-ups for when they won that Hori never went much into, but that'd render this post a bit pointless so shhh.

So, uh, idk if Bakugo is going to end up keeping that arm. I don't think it should bend that way...

Horikoshi obviously loves Star Wars, and I feel like he might outdo Lucas in how many characters lose limbs in a franchise, depending on how this keeps going. Especially since not all of the battles are wrapped up yet.

Shoto may be the Hand-Crusher, but Horikoshi is the Limb-Taker.

Omg, I forgot Trumpit...

Anyway, since I still can't draw anything with my busted ass laptop, I'm gonna be posting a lot of wips I've had hidden away for ages.
