UP ON THE CLIFF :

↳ Summary :

“ Of the five families that began the exodus from the cities to the mountains after the appearance of the urban plague, none had as much history or wealth as the Todorokis. However, it is not uncommon for tradition and tragedy to go hand in hand.

Shortly after the Todorokis came to settle in the "red valley", Enji received a letter: In exchange from their peaceful stay in those lands, the Count of the Cliff demanded the life of Touya Todoroki, the eldest son. As the head of the town, Enji was expected to do anything to protect his people, for what he put his oldest child in a carriage at midnight, on his way to the Count's castle up on the cliff.

Between the place he has just left and the place he was destined to reach, Dabi needs to decide which was a prison of endless despair and which is a source of unconditional love. Should Dabi trust his forever burning heart or the pit of darkness on his head? ”

↳ Main Info :

BNHA / MHA au where the League of Villains are monsters living among the humans. Multiple narrators.

↳ Additional Info :

It can contain spoilers from the manga adapted to the au.

Since it focus on the League, don't expect to see other characters a lot, except when it comes to their relationships with the members of the League and their stories.

Main ships are Shigadabi and Kuropress. I'll add more ships as the story goes.

Some chapters will have violent or strong scenes, but I'll tag them and I'll make sure they don't matter that much to keep up with the general plot. In general we'll be dealing with:

Domestic violence mentions, wounds and blood mentions, abuse mention, dead mention, monster related images, etc.

did @villainsandvictimsalliance 's post about a lov band au motivate me to finally draw my own band au I had in mind for like two years? Yes. Yes it did

x Tomura is the singer and bandleader, Dabi the lead guitarist, Toga the second guitarist, Twice the drummer and Spinner the bassist

x they got together in high school and made the decision once they finish it they’re gonna try and make it as the “League of Villains”

x no quirks

x I loved Shan’s idea for the lore that formed around them, like people thinking Tomura destroys everything he touches because he wears gloves or Twice playing like four people at once so he must be more than one person and so on

x Giran is their scrappy cool uncle manager

x AFO is Tomuras adopted Dad after his parents died in an accident (there is more to it but he doesn’t talk about it) and Tomura is still on the run from him

x Dabi had an accident with fire years ago so he has his scars (even tho they’re not as bad) and hates his father with a burning passion you could say

x Endeavor is a music producer with his own label; All Might too

x Spinner was bullied in high school because of his wierd looks and Tomura befriended him and showed him how to stand up to his bullies

x I imagined they sound a lot like Nothing but Thieves and/or Bad Omens

I‘m gonna post more headcanons with more art in a later post

Wait, Idk if you saw but I’m creating a small AU where the support kids and the hero kids are all swapped [minus BKG so he can be mad when LoV focuses on the support course they accidentally attacked and found more interesting than the hero course], and I just realized..

Shinsou depends on support items to help him into the hero course, which stays the same as canon. Midoriya now works in support.... /I can make it ShinDoriya, Shan/. Late night workshop talks. Coffee dates disguised as them working together. Just... ✨ShinDoriya✨

BLEU PLEASE, I NEED IT RIGHT NOW THIS SECOND IMMEDIATELY PLEASE!!!!

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

Can you imagine the survivor guilt of the LOV in a universe where they're still alive after the final battle, but Tomura isn't????

None of them considered that he would lose, let alone die. Even worse if Deku tells them about all he saw and how he kept fighting for their sake, how much he tried to be their hero.

Especially since most of them had accepted the possibility of dying, believing Tomura would fulfill their dreams. Who would tell them? Deku? Would they be separated? It'd be too cruel, to keep them apart as they realize their boss sacrificed all he could for them.

Do you think they'd remember Tomura trashing on the ground as AFO pats his head? Would you think they'd rage or just cry? Would Dabi hide his pain? Would Spinner blame himself? Would Toga accept the possibility that she now can live more freely, but she can't share her happiness with Twice or Tomura? Would Mr. Compress feel that his sacrifice to keep Tomura alive was in vain now that he's dead anyway?

It's so wrong. For him to be dead and then alive...

MY TOP 3 SHIGADABI AUS

UP ON THE CLIFF ( fantasy au )

There's a sickness slowly turning humans into monsters and there's a Count demanding their lives in exchange for safety for the villages.

When Enji gives in and sends his oldest son as a human sacrifice, Touya is determined to get some answers from the Count himself.

Aka Tomura pretends to be the evil Count of the Cliff so human villages send those suffering from the demon sickness to him. They're later offered a deal: they can run away on their own and be free as they please until their sickness kills them— or they can continue the journey to the castle up on the cliff, where they would be safe and could learn how to live as monsters.

Maybe find a cure. Who knows.

I DON'T DANCE ( college au )

Every year, UA college awards the best project of every faculty with the Plus Ultra Cup. Win it and you'd be one step away from making your dreams come true, they say.

This year, captain of the baseball team Touya Todoroki is desperate to find a pitcher that takes his team to win the sports cup. Their reward? A chance to play with the pros on the best League in Japan!!

Meanwhile, horror artist Tomura is in charge of the faculty project of that year. Not only does Tomura have to consider and include all arts available at UA, but he must create something that goes up and beyond the expectations.

How can it even go wrong?

AKA Tomura and Touya mix sports and arts on a genius stupid bet. Tomura is the new pitcher of the UA heroes and Touya is the lead actor for Tomura's play. Mess of the century.

HEAL YOUR BURNING HEART ( 911 au )

A society that acts like only a few can be heroic is rotten to the core. Tenko and Touya learned that the hard way. Heroes can suck— they can be selfish, arrogant, blind hypocrites. The truth is that they're just people with flashy quirks or a reason to risk their lives to save others.

Flash news, assholes: you don't even need a quirk to do that last part.

AKA in the most ironic move someone could ever expect, Touya becomes a firefighter and Tenko a paramedic. Without a hero license, they are stuck fighting with the system so that they can do their job. Break the law, save a life, join your local firefighters!

#2 Version — Writing in Spanish and translated to English.

Context: pro-hero au.

Tenko succeeds in catching the bad guy who generated the leak on the sewage systems and the heroes' effort confined the explosion to a small zone. Unfortunately, Tenko didn't have the time to get out of the sewage before the explosion. Now he's stuck underneath as the other heroes search for him.

    Move move move move move—

    "MOTH!"

    Part of him would always respond to his sister's call. It was something intrinsic to him, a kind of compulsion that took his body hostage when Hana's voice rose to the heavens.

    Sometimes Tenko found it hard to believe that they had survived the shadow of a villain like AFO. If he closed his eyes now, he could imagine that he was just sleeping and that at any moment he would wake up in another bed, another room, another life just as his as his own. He would walk to a deserted room to shake the fantasy of his dream into dust on the trash can. He would go to the bathroom, wash his face, and not recognize the young man standing there. Only his red eyes would give away his identity.

    All was a dream.

    It was time to stop playing heroes.

    He knew that he had done his job well because his whole body hurt, yet he was alive. Tenko had managed to contain the explosion to the smallest tunnel of the sewage system in the middle of the evacuated area. Hana had surely redirected most of the gas and dissipated it appropriately on the surface. He knew this because the explosion only knocked down a couple of walls and sent him flying into the bars on the west side of the tunnel.

    Deep inside, he just wanted to curl up against Touya's jacket, lay down on the floor and take a nap. He must have had a concussion. He couldn't feel it 'cause everything hurt the same, but Tenko always took his paramedic classes very seriously. Check for contusion. Check to see if he kept the rest of his body. Even without visibility due to the smoke and the giant block of cement covering the exit, Tenko knew that he would see nothing but a firmament of starts blinking on his periphery if he tried to open his eyes. However, Hana was calling him. There was not time to rest.

    "Hana."

    No good. His voice sounded beyond ruined. If he had heard Hana, she must be somewhere around him, he reasoned. Tenko had no idea of the radius of the explosion, so he had to do his best to help his sister locate him.

    "Hana..." Think, Tenko.

    Could the piece of rubble in front of him be safely removed? When the explosion sent him flying, the separating metal fence saved his life by stopping a large piece of debris just over a meter away. He couldn't see anything because of the way the tunnel collapsed. On second thought, he couldn't put it down. Tenko wasn't sure if that would bring him to the surface or let more debris rain down on him. He had not survived the explosion to die buried by his own impatience.

    "MOOOOTH!"

    "Here..." to your left. Damn, he was running out of oxygen in there. Was that normal? How come he could hear his sister perfectly, but he couldn't feel the slightest draft of air against his skin?

    Panic struck him suddenly. He couldn't be hallucinating, could he? The concussion, the lack of oxygen, the feeling of being swimming in air... If he decayed with his quirk that piece of debris and there was something on top of it, he would die. If he did nothing and he was hallucinating, he would die. If he rushed to make a decision and it was the wrong one, he would die.

    Ironically, Tenko could only think about his conversation with Touya a couple of hours ago.

    I promise not to die in your jacket.

    Wait... Touya's mask!!! He had it with him!!

    When he made it out, Tenko promised he'd pay for Touya's new jacket. For lending it to him— and for saving his life by doing so.

Writing Practice ( 21 / 04 / 2024 )

#1 Version — Writing directly in English.

Context: pro-hero au.

During a city-wide coordinate villain attack, Tenko hears that the villains plan to use the sewers to leak a gas and make it explode with a timer. Hana worries, so she calls Touya to help get some sense into her brother's brain.

"I need to go under."

    Tomura tried to catch his breath, looking right and left for the alignment of the sewage system underneath them. What type of leaking were they creating? How fast would it travel down the tunnels? They needed to seal each and every entrance for— what? How many blocks were they talking about? How long until the timer stopped? How—

    Tenko felt first the shove, then the pain as his ass bit the pavement. When he looked up, he had to squeeze his eyes to see anything beyond the sun angled to blind him.

    "Hold it," that snarl he knew. It wasn't the day looming its heat over him. It was a man with thin threads of smoke floating around him as he tried to calm down. "You're not doing shit."

    Tenko spat, wiping his mouth with the back of his gloves. Ah, he thought as he searched for Hana, to no avail. Touya waited for him to move or say something.

    Standing slowly, Tenko took care not to look at him.

    "That might not be up to you." Where was Hana anyway? It'd be quicker if she could float him to the nearest sewer entrance. "Go now, Touya. You cannot be here."

    If the villains were planning a gas leak on the sewers —and they were, Tenko would bet his life and some on what he heard earlier— they didn't have time for Touya to get stubborn. His fire quirk was a hazard at best. He must know. Hana must have talked to him on the radio while Tenko was trying to recall every late night at the agency he spent studying the prints of the city.

    Even with so many villains on the loose, there was no case on staying there and waiting for the ground to explode. They were a distraction. No one saw it coming. No other fellow student or pro-hero was catching on the actual plot. Like it or not, Tenko was their best bet. He had the training, he had the knowledge—

    There was a hand closing on the front of his suit, putting him impossibly close to big blue angry eyes.

    "You're gonna get yourself killed." Tenko wanted to protest, but Touya was not having it. He shook his head in disbelief like he knew exactly what Tenko was about to say. "Where's your cape, moth?"

    It was getting annoying. His cape was—

    Touya's gaze sharpened as Tenko realized what he was being told. His cape was wrapped around a little girl on paramedics ground. His suit was fireproof, of course, but not as sturdy as his cape. Without it, if he got caught in an explosion on the sewage, he'd—

    You're gonna get yourself killed.

    Fuck, Touya was right.

    Tenko raised his hand and Touya let go of him by instinct. Even gloved, people knew to keep their distance just in case. Tenko landed already twisting on his heels, spotting his sister on the mouth of the alley. The sunlight had moved from its previous position.

    "I have a plan."

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

THIS WONT HAPPEN SO PLEASE DON'T GO THEORIZING ABOUT IT but can you imagine if Deku ended up quirkless and Tomura ended up with OFA (but AFO gets destroyed).

Concept is "what if the hero saved the villain by making him the chosen one, by choosing him, by telling him that maybe no one considered you but I do, I see you, I still believe you can do what you dreamed to do, I think you can still be a hero".

If Deku did with Tomura what All Might did for him and gave up on the power that he worked so hard for, in exchange for saving the one person he needs to save the most.

It's be horrendous. A total tragedy. When has the main character given up everything he's worked for and gifted it to his biggest enemy. How is that a satisfying ending. It's stupid. It's insane. It's the type of ending that would have the people riot, insulting the mangaka for the ages, the manga ranking in "worst mangas ever" for all eternity.

It's perfectly an insane and interesting move.

Giving villain the hero responsibility of keeping the world safe? Chaining them to the wellbeing of all humanity by granting them the wish of being the chosen one? Teaching them to repent for their ways? This far in the story, Deku had taught many of his friends how to deal with OFA. Deku taught them how to stop him, contain him. They have practiced it. OFA is no longer infallible, but just another (couple of) quirk(s). Deku could contain OFA user Tomura if he wanted. His real power is that he understands quirks so well, he can work around anything.

The thing about All Might is that he couldn't even breathe between jobs. He was all day and all night running to help people. The law couldn't keep up with him, the government couldn't keep up with him, no one could. It's borderline slaving your life to your hero job. Not a moment to be idle, not a moment to rest. You can't even enjoy the money, because when? Vacations? You don't have those. You're never in your house, you barely sleep on your own bed, reporters and fans follow you every minute of your life so you have no privacy...

I need a fic like that.

I need a fic of Tomura getting to be the new OFA user and Deku becoming the first quirkless hero and the drama is so unhinged and funny because Tomura and Deku are completely restless, they're not even considered human (they are, but fuck if they're not obsessing over the hero job).

Also no one wants to be saved by Tomura and Tomura can't be rude to people. Deku goes with him to every job. Worst possible sibling duo and your house is on fire? Just a Tuesday, I guess.

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

I just decided to send paramedic Tomura to Recovery Girl on his internship. I need him to hate how much the UA kids get hurt, I need him to be starstruck over Aizawa and I need him to falsely assume that kisses have special healing powers.

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

What if something happened and post-final fights LOV had to take care of little Tenko in the present and Tomura had to take care of the LOV in the past before they even were the LOV, uh?

I'm talking about the "5 years old Tenko and 22 years old Tomura swap places temporarily" type of trope.

Pre LOV members wondering why the hell that strange creep cares and Tomura like "they don't know they will follow me to the end of the world".

Little Tenko scared because it's the version that just killed his entire family and the LOV (+ Deku) doing all they can to comfort the child until he trusts that he's safe with them.

Imagine the drama.

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

Thinking again of the I Don't Dance au and how screwed was Touya right from the start. After all, Tomura is the type that's completely unaware of how good he looks while he's pitching (Touya is a professional, dammit. He's not getting distracted).

( picrew )

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

I think about painter Tomura and baseball player Dabi every day of my life that au is everything to me even if I'm not sure I'll ever write it.

Dabi is a college jock because he wanted to impress his dad, but the minute Tomura wins the bet and Dabi steps on those dancing practices is like time stops and he doesn't have the crushing pressure of the world on his shoulders anymore. All he knows is the weight of his body against all that gravity and the steady commands of steps that he can follow and the perfect synchronicity of those moving next to him, a world of order and reassurance, a world where he belongs.

Tomura loves his art, but he reeeaaaally needed someone to challenge him physically like Dabi does. He needed someone who he could wrestle with in the mud and someone who threatens to punch him in a parking lot for fun and that doesn't fear the violence within Tomura, who is not afraid of all Tomura is without the protective barrier of arts. It's not a painting, it's not a metaphor, he is mentally unwell and unbalanced and he bites.

The afternoons they waste arguing about tactics to win games and mocking their rivals like mean school girls and throwing painting around and all the times they almost asked the other to dance or thought about the texture of their lips meeting.

OOOOOuuuUUAAHHHGGG mY BrAIn 😫😫😫

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

Kinda thought about writing a futuristic (ish?) bnha au where the hero society had the brilliant idea to turn controlled time traveling? time loops? into the new jails of the hero world.

Basically it makes you commit the same crime over and over again under different circumstances and to different versions of the same victims, 'til it makes you feel bad enough to repent and change your ways. Except it works as horribly as it sounds 'cause if you change the setting of a crime, well the whole crime falls over.

For example, if you kill someone you'd have to kill that same person again and again since they were innocent babies all the way growing up until the moment you killed them. And if that's not enough the time jail makes you start killing them in other universes too. A million deaths in one death and a million crimes in one crime. Each time the person has the choice to don't commit the crime or do it anyway, but your reasons and your logic is judged by the watchers and if they feel you're lacking in terms of morals or whatever, you're in for another round of time traveling.

The two protagonist would be Midoriya Izuku, one of the new members of the recruit program, and Shigaraki Tomura, a criminal secretly presenting an anomaly where he knows he's in a time jail and he's trying to get out of there.

The plot revolves around Deku realizing that the time jail is a horrible horrible concept and Tomura destroying the time jail from the inside, starting a revolution (by accident lol). The more Tomura and Deku interact with other recruits and inmates, the more they find out how corrupted is their system and how complex their situation. But do they have what it takes to be the leaders of such revolution or would it result in another spin of the wheel and the same old cycle repeating itself?

Comedy and chaos and romance mixed with the old ethic queations about freedom and correction. Also AFO is there, don't worry, but he's more like a virus trying to take control of the time jail system so he can rewrite the world to his sick likings. Not so far from what the hero society is doing, isn't it?

[villainsandvictimsalliance]

DUMB ASS PLOT EXPLANATIONS OF MY TOP TWO SHIGADABI AUS (THAT I WILL MAYBE WRITE SOMEDAY?!?! WHO KNOWS) :

—- UP ON THE CLIFF.

Fantasy au. A dark sickness has pressured the people from the big cities to run away past the mountains, but not before some of them got contaminated. That's how Touya found himself on a harsh position: being asked as a sacrifice to the Count up on the cliff, as is the tradition for the clan leaders to trade a sick member of their group for a safe inhabitance of the valley.

However, soon after parting from his family, his expectations of being just another sacrificial lamb are shattered. The Count gives him the chance to continue his journey to his castle and meet his court of freaks; to live among people like him if he'd like. Or he could go back to fight his sickness, even when he knows now that his father would gladly give him away as colateral damage.

Touya tells himself that he only continues for the promise of finding a way to triumph over his sickness and not because he's curious about what the Count has to offer to man like him.

He let's himself believe it... For a while.

—- I DON'T DANCE.

College au. Every year, UA University presents to its students the chance to crown themselves with glory and fame by winning the UA PLUS ULTRA CUP. All they have to do is break the expectations in their respective courses, being Socials, Science, Arts or Sports, and one of the four cups will be theirs. To win means to win it all, but there're only 3 chances to get it right.

This year, 2nd year art student Tomura plans to win it by directing a horror musical, but his lead actor broke his ankle. Meanwhile, Dabi tries to make a final push as a 3rd year captain of the UA baseball team, but if he hopes to win the university league he needs a pitcher capable of holding back their rival's firepower.

That's how Tomura ends up challenging Dabi for a baseball game and how Dabi accepts it.

If Tomura's team wins, Dabi would have to play the leading role Tomura's missing. However, if Dabi's team wins, Tomura must become their official pitcher for the most important games of the season. A perfect plan, if only because Tomura still remembers how much Dabi loved to dance as a kid and Dabi could never forget Tomura's natural talent, if only because he was there the first time he saw him catch a ball.

When the fucking game comes to a draw, after breaking the record for the inner game college attendance, Tomura and Dabi realize their only mistake: the world will never ask for one show if it can have both.
