#about rodydeku specifically

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

Oh the rodydekus are AWAKE say more rnnnnn

[numberoneredriotfan]

What do you love most about rodydeku?

I love pretty much every aspect about them. But I guess what I would say is that I love how their characters foil one another.

Deku, someone who remained optimistic about his goals and dreams, who always had high hopes that someday his dreams would become reality. And they did.

And then Rody, who had to let go of his dreams and face the reality of his situation. He didn't have time to fill his mind with delusions, he had his siblings to provide for.

Deku would save the people he loved as well as the rest of the world because he has the ability to do so. Rody would sacrifice the world for the people he loves, because he doesn't have the ability to choose both. There's only so much he has in his power.

Overall, I love how their characters influence one another. How they can learn from each other. Specifically, from how Rody learned from Deku.

I used to only really post my polished official analysis on here but since the website that most of my ramblings went to got nuked over night that will be moving over here

Since I’m not as established here I figured I’d make a post where I can introduce some of my usual topics of rambling and you all can ask questions about the backgrounds of any you’re interested in

I sort of struggle with summarizing as well as remembering what I’ve established already or not, so questions (especially specific ones) are very helpful and make me happy /gen

Some of my usuals are:

Monoma, just everything regarding him but especially mental health/psychology and his dynamics with others

Vlad King adopts Monoma au (similar to the Aizawa adopts Shinsou aus and often set in the same universe)

Quirk analysis

Meta analysis (examples being parallels and foreshadowing, sociological/psychological aspects shown in the world, etc)

Queer platonic interpretations of pretty much any ship but especially tododeku, rodydeku, and monoshin

Ostomate bakugou au

Hey I'm dynachan or Jen. I've been in fandom spaces for like... I dunno since I was 10. 2008? So a long ass time.

I'm autistic/ADHD so I like yapping about my hyper fixations/special interests. That's for damn sure.

Queer friendly acct! I am demipan and enby. And most of the ships I ship are yaoi anyway.

Neat personal fact: I have Synesthesia! Specifically chromesthesia. I see colors to sound so that's neat.

I draw. Sometimes. God knows when I'll post art tho.

I am in other fandoms as listed above but this is mostly a mha acct. I got into mha casually around like 2018 ish? Off and on. And around 2020 I really got into it and then I started participating in fandom stuff alot more around 2022ish.

Came up with the username bc obviously bakugo. I thought about dynamight and kacchan then I just combined the two.

[achairwithoutapandaonit]

Reverse Uno - favourite characters to write? favourite fandoms to write? favourite relationships?? what are your favourite kinds of aus? what kinds of fics do you look for?

Crying sobbing,, oKAY

Favourite characters to write: so far I've had the most fun writing tomura I think, tho that was also hard. I also like writing all might and izuku, though i think I write from izuku's pov more often. I've also enjoyed writing the shounen tantei-dan a lot. There was just something very relaxing about it. I remember REALLY enjoying writing five from umbrella academy and delving into everyone's relationships in the one fic I wrote for it. I think I would enjoy writing from eri's pov one day. And lately I've had a want to write tsubasa fanfic, tho I don't have any ideas for what to write. Haibara was fun to write for too the one time I wrote her. Nejire as well - delving into her character and relationships was fun even if that wip hasn't seen the light of day in months.

Favourite fandoms to write: it really changes depending on my current hyperfixation. Right now it's bnha, but sometimes it's dcmk, and I also get cravings for various CLAMP mangas. Digimon and umbrella academy were fun the times I wrote for them. I enjoy writing for avatar as well, but I think that really depends on my mood

Favourite relationships: mostly platonic. I struggle with romance. I love dadmight, and aodeku, and rodydeku. I like the friendship between izuku and ochako and iida a lot, especially throwing shouto in the mix. Natsuo and shouto bonding is a favourite of mine, tho that's more something I've read than written. I also like platonic izuku and shigaraki A LOT. And the fact that spinner cares for tomura so much makes my heart melt. I think erasermight is one of the only ships I really like, but even then its in a really specific slow burn way that could make me just as happy platonically. Mirio and izuku and eri friendship is good too. Very much like big brother mirio. There's also a trend in my fics/wips of yoichi having parental feelings for toshinori??? But I feel like that's a very specific au thing that I wouldn't really care for outside of that kind of scenario.

With dcmk it's platonic coai, platonic kaishin, the friendship between conan, haibara, and the detective boys. I'm also a sucker for conan and amuro friendship, as well as hattori's undying loyalty as shinichi's friend.

Avatar is platonic aang and zuko.

With tsubasa you could literally pair up any of the characters platonically and I'd be like !! That sure works. I think I have a certain fondness for syaoran and fai interaction.

Pretty much the thing that drew me and keeps me obsessed with digimon is literally Ken and daisuke's friendship.

What are your favourite kinds of aus?: canon divergent. It has to be something that works somehow in the universe we've been given, otherwise I'm not interested. Time travel is a favourite, and also little small changes. Even big changes. Just the way something changes and how the story's affected. I would kill for more fic set during all might and izuku's ten months training period where there's some tiny little change. I feel like that's a favourite period of time of mine in bnha, its where I always start writing from.

The kinds of fics I look for: they're usually canon divergent. I generally don't read fluff fic or short coda fics. What I look for seems to be little changes from what I see while I watch. I'll see something and go, oh but what of something happened during this time and they were forced to sort that out. I especially like time travel. I also,, have a habit of breaking my fluff rule for dadmight simply because there's not a lot of good dadmight out there. I generally don't read romantic stuff cause I'm fussy about it. I'm a big fan of hurt/comfort tho. I'll read shorter stories just for hurt/comfort. And I also generally dip out of longer stories because of my attention span.

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

What are ur language hcs for Rody? I've seen ppl hc him speaking languages like Spanish, Italian, Portuguese or Dutch, so I'd like to know if there's any language u particularly like to hc him speaking. Also is there anything u want to say about the language Othenic that u made for ur last fic? Does it sound like any existing language or did u not put much thought into it?

okay, let me try this again now that I've had a day to rage about tumblr deleting my original reply kasdjfa

OKAY

Simpler answer first-- When I wrote in the "othenic" language, I never really thought of phrases or words for it, it's just another lesser know language of the world. My head imagines to have a sort of heavier touch on consonants, like Maya or Nahuatl, and a certain speaking rhythm that would make it sound musical, similar to Irish or Italian. But no actual phrases.

I headcanon Otheon having its own language typically, with English as the sort of European tether (as I've noticed in european media. Most people have like conversational English down pretty early on). HOWEVER---

So, when I saw Otheon in WHM, I sort of gasped and teared up a little bit because it looks so similar to my city in Mexico. The colorful houses, the tin roofs, the mountainous region with trees.

To the left is Sierra Ventana, where one of my great grandmas lives. I visit her every time I go to Mexico (hold on I think I even have photos I took last summer because the Rodydeku brainrot had already gripped me by the throat)

Ta-da!!! the view from my abuelita's patio!

So, of course I started projecting a lot of Mexican culture concepts onto Rody. That's why in "To End Up with You" he uses the phrase "Pampa nimitzlazohtla nochi no yollo." It's actual Nahuatl, one of the native tongues of Mesoamerica (the Aztecs, specifically). Like, yeah, he's European, but what if, y'know?

Okay, so now a deeper nosedive into my Rody Soul analysis.

I feel like we all forget that Rody was kinda rich before his dad was killed, so I think he managed to get a bit of schooling before they were run out. That makes me think that he had to be bi or trilingual at a young age, maybe not perfectly, but for sure enough to get by, especially on the streets.

Add to that the fact that a lot of europeans learn multiple languages because of how close so many other countries are to each other and how easy it is to travel between them (it's like an hour??? hello??? I drive an hour, I'm still in my fucking CITY).

I think I do kind of have Spanish and French as a given because of that, I mean they're very popular languages. And then Italian is pretty easy to comprehend if you know those two since the three are very intertwined and similar. Portuguese is super similar to Spanish as well, just with a throatier sound (like the French), so I think he'd at least be able to understand those at a surface level.

Of course, I headcanon he teaches himself Japanese because of Izuku, and since I'm teaching myself (with duolingo and some workbooks and music ksjfka), that's why I'm so specific about Rody being better about understanding when he hears it slowly, but not really being able to read Kanji much less write it. Also why Roro is a bit better at speaking it than Rody (living where the language is spoken really forces you to figure it out lmfao); he's had way more practice. Actually, if you pay attention, when Izuku describes Roro speaking, he describes it as proper, over-pronounced, and a bit choppy. But when Rody describes it, he considers it very flowy, even if it's not as fast as Izuku's. That was just the perspective since Izuku of course is a native speaker and Rody is just really fascinated with how quick his brother picked it up.

ALSO because English is a learned language in Otheon in my headcanon, I imagine that Rody also has an accent when speaking English!!!! And of course Izuku has one as well. I love accents. I love cultures. I love languages. And I love this couple because of how much I get to play with that, especially with expressions of affection, things lost in translation, creating a new language to let them say things. Like the Nahuatl Rody speaks, he describes as something you say to suggest a bond, a deep-rooted connection, etc. But the literal translation is "Te quiero con todo mi corazon" which, again, can't even be correctly translated into English since there's no word for "te quiero." Though the closest would be "I love you with my whole heart."

I also think Rody would love to learn other languages when he becomes a pilot, like at least enough to have a conversation even if he can't exactly read or write it, which is why I added Arabic and Hindi to the fic when he talks about languages. I think he'd want to get a good grasp on some of the most spoken languages in the world. I also think he'd like to learn Hebrew and Greek just because I think they're really pretty.

God, there's so many languages, and in a perfect world, he'd know them all at least a little, but ah well. I do think he'd really admire other languages, Dutch, German, Swahili, and all the ones that don't get quite as much love, you know?

Ahhhhh this is really long, but I hope I make sense. I hope you enjoyed reading this very long answer lmfao <3

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

how do you think a first date (excluding the roadtrip LMAO) with rodydeku would go? would they even plan an official one or just hang out and realize it was p much a date later? would izuku or rody fret over it? i'm thinking of your Timezones verse but also just a like "what you'd see happen in a canon compliant fic" way

Timezones verse my beloved t.t

OK! I actually had ANOTHER like 2 fics to explore that jenxjdjjf one in drafts the other in my head to be thought of when a specific song plays.

Hm. I think my default idea is that after the war and all. Rody reaches out to izuku, and they start talking and catching up. A few visits maybe, sporadically.

And I think that in one of those times there'd be a confession. I can't decide who would do it first. Maybe Rody, who is brave and has learned to go after things he wants, who knows that time is ticking and izuku has a scary job so he needs to speak before he never gets the chance. Maybe Izuku who always wears his heart on his sleeve or has picked up on Pinos mannerisms and wants to prod rody and who is unapologetic about his feelings and wants rody to know how amazing he is.

But I think they'd know it's their first date. It'd be planned. But I love the idea of it being something simple, something that takes them back. They go stargazing in a field or have a picnic near a lake.

And it's so much like before, but also so different. It's calm and relaxing and comfortable. It's new and nerve-wracking and exciting. There's something new between them and they both know it and it's still unreal to both of them that the other reciprocates. Lots of gentle touches, like scar tracing, learning the grooves and ridges of a palm (let's not talk about 419 rn), counting freckles, learning the texture of hair, embracing the warmth...

Funnily enough neither of my two fics have this date but it's so

They're so

Ugh. Them

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

i'll send some questions so we all can get distracted in those trying times. if Rody wasn't a pilot, what do u think he would like to pursue? what is a hc about rody or rodydeku that u didn't use in any fic (yet), but regardless u like this hc? and, counting any hc that u may have used already, what is your favorite rddk/rody hc? i remember in one of ur fics Lala had a middle name, Evelyn, what middle name (or names, in case u think of more than one) would u give to Rody? and Roro? and, between Rody and Izuku, who do u think is the most jealous? this isn't specifically about your series holding out for a hero, although i thought of it. personally i see Izuku as being more of the jealous type, but only bc there would be a bit of culture shock

Ohhhhh boy oh boy okokok

I think if rody wasn't a pilot he'd be an engineer. If he's not flying the plane I think he'd really like to be part of the behind the scenes stuff yknow? I feel like he's really smart he just never got a chance to properly do the whole school thing because of, well, everything. I think he'd be a cool teacher too.... hmm.

A headcannon I have not used yet..... OH I'm actually gonna use it, so I guess spoiler alert, but I have a headcannon that once rody starts dating izuku, bakugo takes it upon himself to teach rody some fighting moves to practice against various quirks so izuku isn't distracted and worried about rody if they're ever ambushed. I love the idea of rody and bakugo having a genuinely good friendship (I just think bakugo really admires that rody stole and piloted a fucking plane yknow)

My favorite headcannon? Oof. ooooof lol

Honestly, I think my favorite hc for them is the idea of someone disapproving of the relationship for whatever reason (friends or strangers or whatnot) and deku being unwavering in his love for rody, and rody realizing there's someone to fight for him to stay ♡

As for their middle names. Haha fuck I have no idea. I need to think on this fr

And I always write deku as the more jealous one, but it's usually subtle. So I think izuku is more likely to get jealous out of whatever insecurities, BUT I think that when Rody gets jealous it's a bigger thing. It'd take a lot to get him jealous I think (you date someone half the world is in love with you kinda gotta have a high threshold), but I do think that when he does get jealous it's like oh shit yknow

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

Can I get uhhhhh, an L, M, N,O with a side of W please? Thanks!

L: uhhhhhhhh. Well it depends.... I think I wrote the first chapter of These Violent Delights like 5 times? Like scrapped it and started from scratch. For a long time I just... I just fucking posted lmfaoo. Now I do revise specific scenes that I feel are weak or awkward by asking one of my best friends to help me workshop it and at the very least skim the whole chapter before posting.

M: oh sooooo many!!!!

Bakugo waking up in the hospital after That Scene from the manga, yknow. It's a fic meant to explore his dynamics with everyone (parents, izuku, the class, his teachers, and his closer friends)

Rodydeku au that parallels Hadestown

Lovebug songfic for Rodydeku of them getting together.

Another songfic for rodydeku about dealing with the vultures that are the paparazzi when they start dating. could and probably will be a followup to the previous one.

a porocks one shot regarding parenting and how katsuki would approach the whole "hitting your kids" thing (he is NOT for it, but it clashes with parents, it's a whole thing born from my own experiences overhearing my parents and family friends talk about corporal punishment in a way that makes me wanna scream)

a one shot of Rody and Deku's first time together because I don't like how Deku is written when it comes to sex. Like ever. Pairing doesn't matter, I just never like how he's written in them and rddk specifically is lacking in the concept

I'm currently messing with one based on Timezone and Loneliest by Maneskin kdjfaksdf

a dabihawks epilogue to the duology

a dabihawks fic where they don't start out as hate fuck buddies but genuinely have to work together leading to the whole falling in love with a little plot twist

N: No. I've come to accept that if I want it I gotta make it. And if I haven't finished one (Teaching a Heart, specifically) I would never be able to live with myself wanting someone else to finish it for me.

O: I think. I think that also varies. Sometimes a specific ship leads me to create a plotline (I.E These Violent Delights. That plotline would obviously not work with Kiribaku or Zukka, yknow?) and sometimes the plotline comes up and I'm scrambling to see which ship it fits and expand it from there (Like when I watched enchanted, realized it reminded me of Rodydeku, then I just revamped the overarching plot to be more specific to them)

W: I haven't taken prompts in a longggggg time, but I do think I prefer general ones because theyre more freedom for writing. But I WILL get in my head about whether it's what the person who requested it wanted asdkjfakf

[numberoneredriotfan]

First of all, I love seeing your input on rodydeku so thank you :)

And yeah, I never saw Rody being the more possessive type of jealous. I always saw it be more revolved around his insecurities. Like, he's more worried about how he fairs to Deku than other people trying to "steal Deku" (not that they could if they tried lmao). I can definitely see Rody being a little passive aggressive though, and kind of taking out his insecurities on Deku? Though it's obviously not intentional. ALSO YEAH RODY TOTALLY WORRIES ABOUT HIS PLACE IN DEKU'S LIFE. Especially considering all the friends Deku has who have have known him longer, and look up to him and probably know him better.

I actually brought this up in my Rodydeku headcanon post!

On that note, I definitely if Rody ever gets jealous over a person specifically...it would... probably be Bakugou. And Rody definitely feels bad about being jealous over this, but at same time, it doesn't feel too great to hear about how much history him and Bakugou have. Honestly, I relate to Rody so much on this because, while you don't want to impose on your partner's friendship or come OFF as insecure (which he is unfortunately), it still sucks.

Rody's kind of a mess but we love him for it lol. Definitely a rough patch in their relationship, but while Rody is insecure, and has trouble communicating his feelings in a healthy way. I also think he's open to listen to Deku when he wants to talk. So, it's a process and I think even after they get serious Rody still feels this way every now and then, but it gets better. And yes give my boy THERAPY.

Also Rody at some point brings up his jealousy over Deku and Bakugou and Deku definitely feels bad about it for a WHILE😭 Deku just admired his friend so much and never realized it could come off that way.

Chat do we think Rody gets jealous easily with Deku or is a rare feat or does he just not get very jealous at all
