Since Karin can smell chakra: what are you HCs for the characters' chakra smelling/feeling like.

Aaah, I've been waiting for this question... Expect a long answer from me, as always... 👉👈

First, I must say that the smell Karin senses goes far beyond the "smell of roses" or "smell of sweat", as you said. She can sense whether a person is good or bad, and whether or not they are lying, exactly as some people believe animals do when they smell us. But, as we know, she has proven to have a much greater sensitivity than animals or any power in any Village.

Still, we want to know the real smell too, lol. So I'll try to give a description of both - the physical smell and the smell of their "nature".

Sasuke Uchiha

Chakra Smell: Aside from the time when Sasuke was going through a bad phase, his smell is as pure as his personality. If we take into account what Karin herself says, Sasuke's smell is "dark and cold". This may seem like a bad thing, but I think it's the feeling of being in a cabin on a snowy night. The cold is comforting, and unlike the heat of a sunny day that burns your eyes, you feel an almost hypnotic desire to watch the snow falling, and sometimes, an deadly impulse to stand under it, even though it will hurt you at some point.

Physical Smell: Sasuke doesn't seem to be very vain, but he certainly doesn't allow himself to get dirty to the point of smelling. As someone who is always traveling, he must smell like the grass and bushes he passes by, and he also has his own soap and shampoo (which he prefers to have a non-perfumed scent, but still give off a fresh and pleasant aroma), which he takes with him to bathe in when he stops at a Ryokan on a regular basis, or if he has no choice, in some secluded stream.

Jugo

Chakra Smell: Jugo's chakra essence must be the best of all. Besides being a good person who seeks peace when he is not under the curse mark, he never lies. There are some scenes where Jugo holds Karin in his arms or touches her in some way, and even though she is so "skittish", she never seems to mind. I always compare Jugo to a big teddy bear that you can hug, vent and cry for hours on his shoulder, and even though his expression remains the same and he will not give you an answer to your problems, just the fact that he is there already makes you feel good. He smells like "home".

Physical Smell: In Shippuden, he smelled really bad. Jugo didn't seem to have been taught how to bathe, since he probably didn't have anyone to take care of him since childhood. He didn't cut his hair and almost never changed his clothes. He smelled like sweat, blood, and of course, animals. In Boruto, Jugo smells minimally good because Suigetsu and Karin taught him to take better care of his hygiene. He cuts his hair regularly and takes a bath (at least every three days...). He still wears the same curtain he wore in Shippuden, and I'm sure he lets the birds do their business on him and doesn't care... So you better enjoy it while he smells like soap right after a bath, because when he goes to the forest, he'll smell bad again.

Suigetsu Hōzuki

Chakra Smell: The worst smell on Team Taka. Suigetsu was a cold-blooded killer practically since birth, there was no compassion or kindness in his personality, and I don't doubt that he would easily lie to deceive an enemy (or for less). His smell was like being caught in freezing rain after a bad day. However, we saw his personality change along with Team Taka. He became a reliable companion and learned that the lives of others matter. In Boruto, even though he still has his acidic personality, he is clearly not as cold-blooded as he was in his teens. He smells like... Being caught in a drizzle after a happy day. It's still annoying from one perspective, but from another, it makes your day even better and makes you want to stop and let the thin layer of water accumulate on your face and give you that cold, funny feeling.

Physical smell: I don't think Suigetsu smells like anything... His sweat shouldn't have a very strong smell and the scent of any soap or perfume shouldn't stick to his skin for long, thanks to his anatomy. Some people think that his water ability is something that can be activated manually since it's listed as a jutsu in the Databook, but based on his statements and the times he was caught off guard and liquefied, he's literally made of water 24 hours a day. Odorless and tasteless.

Karin Uzumaki

Chakra Smell: A very strong smell, just like her personality, for sure... Due to her difficult past, she ended up creating a thick shell around herself, so she was not honest about her feelings, most of the time, in addition to being unnecessarily ignorant with people, as if she wanted to protect herself in advance. Imagine that you went to a bookstore, and there is that delicious smell of new books everywhere and you could spend hours there, but there is that side separated by a chain where there is a warning for sensitive people not to approach... You feel an immense urge to go in there, wanting to take the risk to see what you might find, but at the same time, the fear of getting a lecture and being thrown out forever makes you unsure about going any further. In Boruto, the same thing. But I think you are so intrigued with all the other interesting areas that the bookstore has that you don't care about checking that forbidden area. Maybe one day, who knows.

Physical Smell: The best of all. Karin is extremely vain. Not only does she love perfumes and has a collection of different scents to match her mood of the day, but she also uses a product for each area of her body, knows what kind of cream to use for each season and doesn't let cheap shampoo touch her hair. Her skin is very soft, and even when she goes on long trips, she *needs* to stop and take a shower at least once a day. If she can't, she uses perfume to not smell so bad. This also keeps the scent of her chakra disguised from potential enemies.

Bonus: Orochimaru smells like "Danger, move away immediately and carefully or you will be bitten". But he physically smells really good and is almost as vain as Karin. Mitsuki smells like a baby because he IS SO BABY. And Log smells like cigarettes, obviously... His chakra smell shouldn't be too noticeable. I feel like he smells like sitting in a leather chair and reading a good book.

[zenkindoflove]

I am going to overwhelm you with questions about Carrion Flowers because I initially was going to ask you one question but then I thought of another one...andddd another one. So I got 4 questions lmao.

I know you said Carrion Flowers was inspired by Sleepy Hollow with the victorian horror and mystery elements. What other things inspired you while writing this fic?

2. what was the first scene/chapter you wrote?

3. what was your favorite scene/chapter to write?

4. what was your process with the mystery and the big reveal? Did you figure out who the killer was beforehand? Did you have other plans that you were going to do before deciding on the final, but did you know the exact plot when you started writing?

Ooooh, my weird little baby. I love these questions because I have SO MUCH to say about Carrion Flowers. It really flew under a lot of people's radar, and I feel like its certainly not for everyone haha. But it gives you a glimpse into all the things that I like in fiction.

I know you said Carrion Flowers was inspired by Sleepy Hollow with the victorian horror and mystery elements. What other things inspired you while writing this fic?

I pulled from a lot of movie/tv/book references when writing it! For one, I leaned into a lot of my favorite witch stories, like Witches of Eastwick, The Craft, The Witch, Slewfoot, Hereditary, and even a little Hocus Pocus. I think if you read it closely you can see some indirect influences but also really direct nods. The incantation that the sisters use to summon the Seventh Hell King was directly inspired by the scene in The Craft when they call on to the four corners. The goat that attacks Lucien is basically Black Philip. Feyre being more feral and wild is inspired by Sara Jessica Parker's witch archetype and Elain as the more natural witch inspired by Sarah in The Craft. I could go on and on but you get the point.

In general, I love themes of Satanism and women being either pushed toward or willfully choosing to reject domineering Christianity for the sake of freedom and hedonism. And that is sort of the story I wanted to tell in Carrion Flowers.

There were also a lot of other references I was inspired from/pulled from, such as from the detective genre (Hannibal and Silence of the Lambs) as well as other horror films. But this post will be entirely too long if I went into all of them.

2. what was the first scene/chapter you wrote?

I wrote the story in order, so the first scene I wrote was the first scene in the fic, where Lucien is packing for his trip to Sunset Hollow and Eris comes to visit. I sort of used it as a means to figure out how Lucien fits into this world and what his character is like as a detective, and I thought Eris would be a good way to explore his backstory in a succinct way. I also just finished Pull Me in Deeper and was coming off a long Erixius focused time period in my fic writing, and I thought sending Eris and Alexius off in Carrion Flowers to fuck in a cottage while the events of the story unfolded was a good way to feel good about where I left them haha. Also, I will use any excuse to include Eris in things.

3. what was your favorite scene/chapter to write?

I think my all time favorite was Lucien's dream, which was inspired by this twisted little poem on Acid Bath's album Paegen Terrorism Tactics called "Old Skin". I actually listened to this album/this particular track a lot while thinking about this fic because the sludge metal genre that came out of New Orleans is so damn witchy. I try to tell people if you like Season 1 of True Detective, Acid Bath is basically the identical vibes in music form. ANYWAYS. That scene in particular was fun because I got to get very weird with it, including planting some foreshadowing for the rest of the fic as well as interlacing some of Lucien's darkest fears and memories.

4. what was your process with the mystery and the big reveal? Did you figure out who the killer was beforehand? Did you have other plans that you were going to do before deciding on the final, but did you know the exact plot when you started writing?

****BIG SPOILERS FOR THE FIC. DO NOT READ BEYOND THIS POINT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED ON THE MYSTERY****

I knew when I first plotted out the story that the three sisters would be the killers and that they were doing it to summon the devil (Rhysand). I knew at the core of it, I wanted them to be the killers and that all the hopes the reader had that they were being wrongly accused was playing on your expectations of how these stories normally go. Now, once I knew that, planting the clues that would both show you who was doing the murders but also set up red herrings came through a lot of careful plotting and sometimes realizing I placed something in one chapter and needed to connect it later as I was writing/posting. So some things were developed more organically like Nesta's telekinesis powers so she could have killed H. King alone and left the pentagram on the floor under the bed. But a lot of things were determined before hand, such as the sisters collecting flesh, blood, and bone, and who it made most sense to collect each item, and trying to make their murders reflect not only call outs to canon (like Nesta beheading H. King like she did to the King of Hybern) but also how it fit with their personalities.

I would say that this fic took a lot more careful pre-plotting than I normally do, where I often let the characters drive scenes. There certainly was that also in this fic, especially scenes between Elain and Lucien, but I realized quickly that writing good mysteries is hard, and you have to be quite technical and deliberate in order to make it satisfying (which I hope I achieved).

I do want to shoutout @crazy-ache because initially I was going to fill this AU with a lot of OCs, but she basically was like "why don't you try to find a way to bring in the canon characters". Tamlin initially was not going to be in it, but I think she suggested I make him the sheriff and it worked out sooo much better. She also helped me figure out how to change the OCs I had planned to be the victims to fit with canon characters which is how we got who King, Tomas, and Ianthe as the victims. Definitely owe a lot of that to her and her beautiful mind. And just in general being an amazing beta.

On Heteromorphs & Heteromorphobia (Arcs VI - X , Hero Killer to Provisional License Exam)

(This post will also cover the bonus chapter “Tsuyu's Ribbity Diary.”)

Thank you all for your amazing response to last week's post, my goodness! I thought I'd found about all the audience I was likely to get for my harping about heteromorphic discrimination, so I was delighted to see a number of new names!

I do have to warn you all, if you haven't done much looking into my archives, that I'm pretty critical of BNHA these days, especially of the ways it insists on holding up individualistic solutions to problems clearly established as systemic in nature. That will become more apparent when I get into the post-war material, as the endgame is absolutely rotten with it.

This week, though, we'll start by getting out of the school to get a look at signs of and contributors to heteromorphobia in the wider world.

The Vs. Hero Killer Arc (Chapters 45-59)

Chapter 45:

Mina’s preferred alias, Alien Queen, in reference to the Xenomorph queen from the Aliens franchise, is turned down by Midnight.  The reason for this is never made especially clear.  Class 1-B gets away with a number of villainous or monstrous hero names, like Phantom Thief and Gevaudan, violent ones like Battle Fist, even an animal reference in Jack Mantis.  But Mina, for whatever reason, gets pushed towards the indescribably twee Pinky instead.  Does Midnight the R-rated hero not think girls should get to have hero names with some edge?  Surely not; her entire persona is based on titillation.  Length is clearly not a factor, given that Midnight personally approves Can’t Stop Twinkling. I don’t know exactly what went down here (from a Watsonian perspective, that is; the Doylist guesses are readily apparent and all eyeroll-inducing), so I will simply point out that a non-baseline gal wanted to name herself after a famous monster with acidic blood and was pressured into going with something cutesy based on her skin color instead.  Bakugou’s choice gets turned down as well,[1] but he actually has “murder,” like, right there in the name; Alien Queen is quite roundabout by comparison!

Chapter 48: 

Introduction of Uwabami, the Pro Hero gal with the head snakes.  She’s a bit of a weird case.  Given that all we know she does is find hidden people using the snakes’ keen senses, do they have some self-awareness that makes them able to communicate with her—a case somewhat like Tokoyami and Dark Shadow, perhaps?  Does she just tap into their senses at will rather than being able to speak to them?  Or are they rather just extensions of herself, with no particular consciousness of their own, and they function like what must be a fairly dizzying array of extra-sensory perception that she receives at all times?     Whatever the case, she’s a model and celebrity, and thus our first clear example of a heteromorph who doesn’t seem to suffer for her looks. Her looks are, of course, quite accentuated, given that her hero costume is a low-cut evening dress with a slit in the side up to her hip.  Other than the hair-serpents, she’s a baseline woman who checks all the boxes for modern beauty standards; she will serve in this fashion as a good predictor of other highly ranked heteromorphic Heroes.

Chapter 51+55:

Endeavor, as will be made clear in Chapter 55, doesn’t really have any idea what the Noumu’s deal is.  As far as he knows, it’s just like any other villain—and yet in Chapter 51, he opens up with an attack that bathes the Noumu in flame anyway, and comments in 55 that he’s never known anyone to remain conscious after such an attack.  While I think this mostly speaks to the general brutality with which villains are treated by heroes—much different from standard police practice in real-life Japan!—it’s nonetheless notable that the Noumu he attacked with such casual ferocity certainly doesn’t look very baseline to the casual eye, between the exposed brain, the significant height, and the crawling movement.

Chapter 56:

Midoriya is startled by Chief Tsuragamae’s “woof” interjections.  He doesn’t comment on it out loud, so I’m not inclined to hold it against him (not like someone else I’m about to bring up), but it wouldn't be the first time he’s come across this kind of vocalization: Tsuyu makes ribbit noises pretty frequently.    

Tsuragamae notes that the authorization of a certain class of people, called “heroes,” to weaponize their quirks against others was initially a heavily criticized decision, one which only garnered public support because those original heroes were careful to always obey the laws dictating the circumstances in which they used their quirks.  He goes on to say, of using one’s quirk to inflict harm without explicit instruction from the powers-that-be, “Such action would represent a stunning breach of law.”  Like Thirteen before him, he completely omits any mention of how such laws disproportionately affect heteromorphs, who can’t turn off a permanent physical trait, and, particularly in cases of people whose entire bodies are divergent, have little choice in whether or not to use their quirk in any sort of physical altercation that might lead to harm.    

Shouto, angry over what he perceives as punishment for a good deed, calls Tsuragamae a mutt.  The chief doesn’t react particularly strongly to this, but as the chief of police, you have to imagine he’s pretty used to the slings and arrows of public opinion.  The incident passes without comment, but it will not be the last time we hear a Todoroki derisively referring to another human being as an animal.

There are some sweatdrops and exhortations to get the kid to cool it, but those were ongoing before the animal words came out.

Chapter 57: 

Gran Torino notes that the age they live in, for better or for worse, is one of suppression, and that the situation with Stain and the League will draw people out who are influenced by that ideology.  Gran doesn’t elaborate on exactly what sorts of people he has in mind—All Might says only, “Then heroes will deal with them,”—but it’s an early hint that there are people in this society who feel unjustly suppressed.  Crucially, Gran Torino doesn’t even necessarily think those people are wrong; he just thinks it’s a necessary evil.  But what, exactly, is it that he’s grudgingly accepting as inevitable for the sake of maintaining the status quo?  And how might his circumstances need to differ for him to have a different opinion?    

In Chapter 27, we learned that producing support goods requires a government license; here we find out, courtesy of Giran, that dealing in and producing support goods without such a license is a major crime.  So if you, for any reason, failed that “rigorous examination” to get cleared for support goods for quality-of-life reasons, you’re unlikely to find someone who’ll just provide them to you out of sympathy provided you keep quiet about where you got them.  Instead, you have little choice but to turn to black market brokers—all because the government doesn’t think your quirk is affecting you negatively enough to qualify you for support equipment.     Again, this isn’t specifically about heteromorphs, but someone having an emitter quirk they can’t control well who needs the support item because they are choosing to pursue a career requiring them to learn that control is a very different case than someone who needs government support because of an immutable, always-on physical trait.    

This chapter contains the first appearances of both Gigantomachia and Spinner, both fairly extreme heteromorphs: Machia for his size and rocky hide, and Spinner for animal traits considerably more prominent than e.g. Tokoyami’s bird head or even Tsuyu’s conglomeration of mildly froggy traits.  Indeed, Spinner’s heteromorphic traits are so much more prominent than something like Jirou’s earlobes that it hardly seems accurate to even categorize their bodies the same way.    

The sidebar for Daikaku Miyagi, the anchorman with the quirk that gave him two big horns who amputated one so that it would be less in the way during newscasts and other things that required there to be a camera on him.  This in and of itself wouldn’t necessarily be notable, save that the same extra goes on to describe how the decision garnered some backlash from “a certain human rights group” who said that decisions like his fostered discrimination and were linked to the rejection of quirk-based society on the whole.  Horikoshi further notes that he enjoys thinking about the lives and stories behind minor characters—even this far back, then, three and a half years before the introduction of the CRC, we have concrete evidence that the author was thinking about quirk-based discrimination and the politicization of heteromorphic features.

Chapter 59: 

All Might drops some exposition about the Advent of the Exceptional, during which we see an image of a crowd full of implied-quirkless people holding up signs proclaiming their humanity and the monstrosity of those with quirks.  Conversely, three of the four quirked people we see have obvious physical divergence from baseline human appearance.  So from early on, that “monster” turn of phrase was heavily associated with changes in the physical appearances of those with special abilities.  Later on, the PLF advisor at the hospital will tie these two things together explicitly.

   

The Final Exams Arc (Chapters 60-69)

Chapter 61:

Ectoplasm’s character sheet.  The teeth are creepy no matter which way you cut it, but they look much more profoundly unsettling when they’re right there on his unmasked face, as opposed to behind a black cowl, where you can let your eye fool you that they are in some way part of its design.  His hero costume, naturally, includes the cowl, but his daily clothes do not—I wonder if he ever tried to have a gentle talk with Shouji about why Shouji wears the mask even in his downtime?  I wonder even more how much the teaching staff in general, and Nedzu and Aizawa specifically, actually know about Shouji’s history.     o It’s also noted that Ecloplasm looks scary, but has received continued support after coming back to the job after losing both legs in a fight with a villain—we see this same pattern with Jeanist after Kamino.  No word on how regular his support was before the traumatic double limb loss, though.

Chapter 66: 

Nedzu, we find, was “toyed with by humans in all sorts of ways in the past.”  Nothing we know about him suggests that he has any particular longevity, but his dynamic with Endeavor,[2] many chapters down the line, does suggest to me that he was at least on the staff when with Endeavor was at UA some thirty years ago.  Thirty years is within the span of All Might’s career, well after society began to stabilize with the formalization of the Hero System.  And yet, despite that, a sentient being, one with human—above human!—intelligence, was mistreated badly enough that he bears a grudge to this day.  Nedzu is, again, not in precisely the same situation as a human heteromorph, but he serves as an indicator of what humans have, even in the age of heroes, been willing to do to those they think of as “animals.”    

A shot of Koda and his mother, who look much alike.  Interestingly, the biggest difference in their appearance is that she has horn-like protrusions that her son lacks.  We’re a long way from the first quirk evolutions, and even farther from Koda’s quirk evolution, but we will later see Koda’s mother specifically tie those horns to her animal communication quirk becoming more powerful.  This makes for another good piece of evidence towards Horikoshi having a grasp of heteromorphobia from early on, as the evidence is pretty good that Koda-mama got those horns as a result of a quirk evolution of her own, and those don’t happen under normal, non-stressful circumstances.  More on Koda’s parents in a bit, as they're a pretty stand-out case in another way that isn’t immediately apparent here.

Can we call it foreshadowing for Koda defending Shouji at the hospital that Koda is wearing the same scarf as the main character in Horikoshi's Oumagadoki Zoo? Hmm. I'll leave that one to codenamesazanka.

Chapter 67: 

A flashback panel to Mineta’s days in middle school.  While I don’t doubt that there are P L E N T Y of reasons Mineta would be unpopular with the girls in his class, it is nonetheless notable that the popular boy getting showered with attention is perfectly baseline, while Mineta and his friends are not.

Note also that the cute heteromorph girl has long-ish ears and no other obvious divergent features.

Chapter 68: 

Shouji and Iida are specifically called out to at the mall, trying to attract them as customers with claims that whichever storefront employee is hailing them can help them find anything they need.  Midoriya mutters to himself about the difficulties of catering to everyone, given the many different types of quirks scattered across multiple age groups.    

Crowd scenes at the mall show scattered numbers of heteromorphs, a somewhat higher number than usual for such civilian crowd scenes.  The Kiyashi Ward Shopping Mall is noted for being the biggest and trendiest in the prefecture, with a variety that attracts lots and lots of people, so perhaps it’s no surprise to see somewhat more heteromorphs than usual there.

   

The Forest Training Camp Arc (Chapters 70-83)

Chapter 70: 

Introduction of the Wild Wild Pussycats.  A team of three Emitters and a Transformation-type, none of them in the slightest heteromorphic (give or take Tiger’s permanent :3 mouth), they nonetheless theme themselves after cats, including fake tails, big costume paw gloves, and cat-ear-esque headsets.  It’s cute and unobjectionable in and of itself, but I do wonder what people like e.g. Officer Sansa think of it.

Chapter 71: 

Shouji is missing from the hot springs scene.  It doesn’t hugely stand out in the moment because Aoyama and Sero aren’t there either, but it does read a bit differently with the benefit of hindsight.  Given the strong possibility that Aoyama is off doing Traitor Activities and Shouji is avoiding any possibility of having to torpedo the hot springs fun-times with an explanation of that time he was savagely beaten by people in his hometown right in an open street, it kinda leaves Sero as the only one who maybe just skipped for normal reasons, like that hot springs would gunk up his tape or something.

Chapter 73: 

Bakugou addresses Ojiro as “Tail”—referring to him by his heteromorphic trait.  He’s not even particularly angry at the moment; he’s just still nursing a grudge about Todoroki’s underwhelming performance in their Sports Festival match and wants to swap partners for the Test of Courage.  Early Bakugou is very much a “judge a person by their quirk” sort.    

Pixie Bob ushers Tsuyu and Ochaco into the woods for their turn at the Test of Courage by referring to the latter as Uraraka-kitty and the former as Ribbit-kitty.[3]  While in the English, this reads as a baseline woman in a cat costume referring to the heteromorphic student by her animal-themed verbal tic and the baseline student by her actual name, uraraka is a fairly onomatopoeic way to say bright and cheerful.  I would guess that Pixie Bob is probably referring to Ochaco’s personality here, which makes it somewhat less egregious.  It won’t be the last time someone refers to Tsuyu via the frog sound instead of her name, though.

Chapter 75:

Mandalay telepathically compliments Spinner, calling him both cool and handsome.  While I doubt he’s the only person in the world who’d react the way he does—he blushes, gets flustered, and missteps, giving Mandalay an opportunity to attack him—the moment does get some new context when you consider how everyone called him “the lizard freak” in his hometown.  Approximately zero people calling him cool and handsome back there, one imagines!  Having it immediately turn out to be a ploy likely informs some of the outraged anger in his response.

Chapter 81: 

Mandalay points out that Spinner never used his quirk during their combat, implying that she doesn’t think just his lizard-like appearance or his claws “count.”  Chalk another one up to the classification problems of “heteromorph” as a descriptive term.  This will turn out to rather neatly illustrate one of the issues I’ve been talking about with regard to the way heteromorphs are unfairly disadvantaged by the current laws about public quirk use.  Remember, a “Villain” is someone using their quirk illegally.  So if Mandalay doesn’t think Spinner used a quirk here, and since he has no record, why does he get categorized as a Villain instead of just a garden variety criminal?     Now, one could say that by associating with the League of Villains, Spinner is rather claiming the designation for himself, and we don’t know how the legal system will technically classify him, when and if he ever actually faces trial.  To that, I would say to hold the thought, because Skeptic will eventually back me up on the, “Heteromorphs are unfairly targeted by Villain designations,” claim all but word for word.    

BONUS CHAPTER 1: Tsuyu’s Ribbety Diary

We meet Tsuyu’s family, all various froggy types.  They’re a cute family, but the husband and wife both being froggy kind of raises some questions about pressures that might exist about marrying your same “type,” or at least refraining from marrying anyone too obviously not.  I’d be more willing to wave it off if not for two things.      First, we get the same sort of scenario from Spinner’s character sheet, that his is “a family full of reptilian quirks.”  Second, there are very few romances in the series between someone close to “baseline” and someone with a more extreme heteromorphic appearance.  The most obvious, clear-cut, canonical example is Koda’s parents—his dad has slightly weird hair but is otherwise entirely baseline; we see him defending his wife from other peoples’ mockery.  That, of course, is a single panel limited to a flashback inside a flashback, so not exactly very visible to the reader!  The next-most significant one I can come up with is Natsuo and his mouse girlfriend, who has likewise been seen in one (1) panel, had no dialogue, and whose appearance and identity were so incidental the anime deleted her entirely.     Who’s next?  Well, if you assume all those No Comments from Kamui Woods and Mount Lady about their relationship are indicative of a relationship between them, they’d be another, though we don’t actually know what Shinji actually looks like under his mask, only the implication that it’s divergent enough that he prefers to cover his face.  Next up on my tally would be Thief Takami and Tomie, but since the sum total of Takami’s animal traits are tiny little elbow wings, you can see how fast the drop-off is there.     Compare this to the number of pairings/families we have between people of like type: Bakugou’s parents, Iida’s, Jirou’s, Aoyama’s, Tsuyu’s, Ochaco’s, Shouto’s, Toga’s, Spinner’s, and Tomura’s whole family on both sides.      Then you get the ship-teasy stuff that’s more about crushes, people dating, or hints that are perceived as pointing towards epilogue romances: Deku and Ochaco, Jirou and Kaminari, Shindo and Yo, Gentle and La Brava, Miss Joke’s flirting with Aizawa, and Toga’s variety of crushes (among which Tsuyu is the most distant from Toga’s own body type).[4]  I think Kirishima and Mina are right on that borderline, with Mina having a normal body type but a collection of minor but highly visible divergent traits.     So like, the vast, vast majority of the romantic relationships in the show are between relatively baseline people.  In that context, it sticks out like a sore thumb to me that Tsuyu and Spinner are both explicitly said to have the same type of animal heteromorph quality on both sides of their family tree.  It’s not an incest concern or anything, just that I wonder what the pressure is on cross-type couples, or what social circles look like post-graduation.    

Two classmates talk about how it’s hard to tell what Tsuyu is thinking; one of them says, with her eyes hooded and a kind of cool expression, “That expression of hers never changes.  Maybe ‘cuz she’s a frog?”    

Tsuyu tells us that she never really made any friends; while some of this may simply be because Tsuyu didn’t have much time to socialize, between hero training and looking after her family, it’s also true that all of her classmates that we see have baseline appearances.    

This lasts until she starts getting stalked by a snake-headed heteromorph girl named Mangusu Habuko—a fellow loner.  Tsuyu is initially frightened by Habuko’s behavior, but has an intuitive sense for what the deal is, that Habuko wants to be friends but is awkward and doesn’t know how to broach it.    

When asked if she wants to be friends, Habuko flips out.  She calls herself treacherous and untrustworthy; she calls Tsuyu a foolish frog and says she must be joking, and that she should choose her friends more carefully. She then immediately dissolves into tears.  Somehow, I doubt all this self-loathing about her innate nature manifested out of thin air!    

The Hideout Raid Arc (Chapters 84-97)

Something that’s observable throughout this arc is that we’re in another sequence, like the Sports Festival, where the percentage of people with heteromorphic features in the crowd shots tends to run a bit higher than the norm of the series to date.  Unlike the Sports Festival, though, these crowds are just civilians, not heroes.  So what’s the difference between Kamino and the earlier on-the-street crowd scenes?     Well, the neighborhood the Noumu warehouse is in is a somewhat rougher area.  Part of the visual shorthand for that is people in edgier clothes, stuff that’s indicative of districts with bars, clubs, sleazy hangout spots, and so forth, but another shorthand is an increased number of heteromorphs.

These panels are respectively from Chapters 87 and 92.

Chapter 87:

The character sheet for Kamui Woods notes that the story of his early childhood is “grand and compelling,” and that his story was made into a documentary.  That, to me, has Inspiring True Story written all over it.  Probably not coincidentally, Kamui Woods is another character whose face we’ve never seen.  As more pointing in the direction of him having a childhood marked by severe discrimination, he’s not sure of his age—it’s given as “29 since he started counting.”  So was he abandoned as an infant for his weird face?  I could come up with other explanations, all equally over the top (extreme confinement, for example, that left him unable to properly mark the passage of time), but the fact that he can’t e.g. look up a birth certificate for himself suggests that whatever went so wrong for him, it happened very early.     …Though I suppose there’s the possibility that he’s not human, but rather a tree that manifested a quirk.  As documentary-worthy origins go, though, that feels less Inspiring True Story and more Educational Biopic About Rare Phenomenon.    

The Provisional Hero License Exam Arc (Chapters 98-121)

Chapter 99: 

Shouji’s room is shown, all but barren.  He says that he doesn’t care much about owning things, but knowing what we come to know about his history, it’s easy to wonder if he really doesn’t care about owning things or if this is rooted in a childhood in which it was believed that anything he touched would be polluted.  Not a situation that led to him being given much of his own, one suspects!

Chapter 103:

This chapter introduces Yokumiru Mera, from the HPSC, who gives an opening statement that has some very interesting ruthlessness lurking in its subtext.  Particularly relevant to our current topic is his comment that in the modern era, the time it takes to resolve a given incident is incredibly short, so the test that year will be prioritizing speed.  Prioritizing speed (wouldn’t want some other hero to get the metaphorical kill first, after all!) is a surefire way to guarantee that heroes are not taking the time to really examine all factors in a situation or make any attempts whatsoever at calm, considered de-escalation, but rather are just making snap judgements based on their biases and gut reactions.  Guess what group of people that’s going to disproportionately impact?        o Now, it’s notable that Mera says the test prioritizes speed, but the conclusion many others come to is that the test only pretends to do so; that actually, it prioritizes care and information gathering.  Indeed, we find a few chapters later that the actual priority is teamwork, as requested by police higher-ups—the idea is to fill in the gap left behind by All Might with hero squads that work well together.[5]   However, while the intention may be to gather those good at teamwork, it certainly doesn’t stop people like Shouto and Inasa from cruising through—and, in any case, whether the groups learn teamwork or not doesn’t take away from an HPSC rep telling them to their face that speed of incident resolution is one of the most important things to a modern hero and never following that up with any kind of amendment or clarification.

Chapter 107:

Introduces the HUC, or Help Us Company, professionals trained to act as victims in disaster rescue exercises.  Given that context—what they’re communicating to students training to understand what “victims” look and act like—it’s extremely worth examining what they, well, look like.

God, this is so Yikes.

And having asked that question, we find that the only people in this group that might not be baseline—the ones with short, childlike statures—are dressed to emphasize that stature.  The end effect is a crowd of “victims” with not a single heteromorphic representative.

Chapter 109:

Shiketsu’s class rep, Mora Nagamasa—the extremely hairy one—approaches Bakugou to extend an apology for Shishikura’s behavior during the exam.  It’s noticeable here that, having matured somewhat since Early Series Bakugou, and having been approached in downtime in a reasonable manner, Bakugou manages to refrain from coming up with any demeaning nicknames centered on Mora’s appearance.  Kirishima remarks internally on all the hair, but only internally; he’s much too polite to say anything out loud.

Chapter 110:

A big splashy introduction for the man ranked #3 in the Heroes Who Look Like Villains ranking, Gang Orca.  He’s at the test to play villain and is, just as noticeably as all the play-victims are baseline, a heteromorph.  At the time of his introduction, he’s ranked Number 10 in the Hero Rankings, but will be bumped out later on.  This does, however, make him the highest-ranked known heteromorph who doesn’t have a human face,[6] with the possible exception of Kamui Woods—who, like Shouji, covers it with a mask.

Gang Orca’s character sheet notes that, while he’s a popular guest at aquariums, his intimidating face and “stony personality” always result in weepy children.  He apparently finds this relatively upsetting (“lots of angst”) but, unlike Shouji or Kamui Woods, has not taken to wearing a mask, nor trying to tone down his personality on any level—to the contrary, Present Mic suggests much later on that he exaggerates it.

-----------------

Next time, I'll cover from the Shie Hassaikai arc through the end of Joint Training. Thanks for reading!

--------------------- FOOTNOTES ---------------------

[1] Initially.  He sticks to his guns long enough that he gets away with it in the end, though.

[2] The big tell is that Nedzu addresses Endeavor as Todoroki-kun rather than Todoroki-san or simply by his hero name, but his observation that Todoroki-kun has “matured” (literally in the Japanese, “become an adult”) doesn’t hurt, either.

[3] Kerokero neko and Uraraka neko.

[4] You can get further out there with this, but by the time you get to e.g. Shouto and Momo or Ojiro and Hagakure, the ice is definitely getting thinner on whether you’re seeing groundwork for future wedding bells or just reasonably close male/female friendship.  Your mileage may vary depending on how tightly attached your shipping goggles are or how cynical you are about shounen authors’ tendencies towards timeskip marriages.  Also, I can’t be bothered to dig up and list out the crushes or shipping patterns among the Class B kids. Koroiro likes the mushroom gal?

[5] Note that Mera phrases this as being merely a stopgap until they find the next All Might.  The HPSC is not so eager to change the methods they’ve come to rely on over the last thirty some-odd years!

[6] We don’t know enough for me to say for sure whether Wash is a heteromorph.

[definitelynotalessa]

Idk how to start this but I RLLY like acid bath, they're a really cool sludge metal band from the early 90's that had a really short lifetime only having two albums (and a cancelled third) before the breakup over the death of Audie Pitre (Bass Player).

(sludge metal is also a real term just incase u don't know it usually referring to the downtuned guitars, heavily distorted sound, slower tempo. And with combined influences of both hardcore metal and punk in terms of lyrics.)

Anyways, this is my top 5 songs. I don't know how to really make it descriptive (sometimes I'll just describe this to friends as like "it sound good in ma ears") so I'll try to sell you on this band and if it doesn't work you can call me lame and gay and throw fruit at me or some shit idk- okay.

(also I'll link every song in a separate post cuz it kinda glitches here srry, it'll only be Spotify links as the record company that owns their music refuses to put anything on YouTube so the only OFFICIAL way to listen to this bands music is on Spotify or buying a CD or vinyl... Keep in mind the band doesn't even own their own music.. industries suck no surprise tbh)

5. The Bones of Baby Dolls

Something about this song is so chilling and haunting, it's a lot slower and toned down to the other songs (Scream of the Butterfly has a similar tempo) but everything about it just blends really well.

Dax Riggs' Vocals are so good in this (as usual with every song, he's not terrible in any of them idk what the fuck point I'm tryna make but hear me out) he really delivers on the slow and eerie vibe of the song.

ESPECIALLY in the demo version, I really enjoy both of them for different reasons, the album version is a creepy droning ballad with a really defeated tone in it.

I won't get into the lyrics because I'm not intelligent enough to tell you any meaning to it (Usually people argue whether the song refers to a killer or child abuse or both or even a hallucinogenic experience) I personally don't look too deep into the lyrics (future alessa here to say I do infact commit hypocrisy later writing dw) because I feel like it's just a mash of things into a poem that you're not really supposed to understand but more so feel through sound than by thinking about it.

(To finish off about the demo version it really sounds like something you'd imagine hearing walking through a desolate wasteland by just how drowned out the vocals are as if you could connect the demo to being an aftermath of the album version).

4. Tranquilized

Just entirely a different tone from everything else on the first album, it has such a groove to it and almost a cocky tone especially with the lyrics like "I will make it through even without youu.. my sky will be blue- I live Tranquilized.." followed by such a sick breakdown after with that one distinct riff looping (when you hear it you'll know) that just really carries the song. My favorite lyric before the next breakdown is "THEY'RE DYING OF RABIES, EATING THEIR BABIES IN. FIELDS. OF. DEAD DAI-SIES- I live Tranquilized"

3. Venus Blue

Fuck this is my favorite in terms of Dax's vocals alone, he's so fucking beautiful and his lyrics are impeccable.

I just love how it starts immediately where he sings with his eerie lyrics slow and it builds into him getting louder and more passionate with his vocals but not really doing any screamo stuff just reaaally getting into the song.

"Like drowning in dry oceans of bone.. I taste the wreckage of crumbling faces... I know the pale thing in the darkest of places... I REMEMBER BLOOD FROM THE THIGHS OF THE MOTHER, AS EVERYTHING IS EATEN BY ANOTHER... HOWWW- MUCH?! MORE MUST WE BLEED HER?! I.. CUT. THEIR THROATS WHILE THEY SLEPT (I wept..) I.. PEEL! BACK MY SKULL JUST FOR YOU- yes I do..."

2. God Machine

...Holy shit, from the sampled audios cutting in and out with sayings of "Did I crucify your God?" followed with a really distorted and droning guitar with Dax opening the song with what you could interpret as either a poem or a warning with-

"The God machine is hungry for individualism and ripe brains.. the skull farmers do their rain dance and pray the machine falls to sleep.. she holds me close and whispers wet "there are cannibals among us." Mad in love with dry dead boys in the backs of abandoned cars.. smoking the bones of children plotting the murder of love..."

This is the one song I'll give my interpretation for cuz I'm a little.. passionate? Or touchy.. maybe even spiteful? On the subject personally.

(no hate to your beliefs, practice it at home where it's safe and private don't go to those creepy churches with those p3d0 priests that exploit those seeking hope.. for money)

I think it's a bit of a commentary on how organized religion brainwashes people into obedient god fearing zombies and the song is a story from the perspective of some clergy men acting like mad scientists disfiguring individuals mentally and physically into an ideal persona to appease "the machine" but don't even entirely believe it themselves just using it as an excuse to do the horrors they've done (you could also interpret it switching between both them and the victims this is just my interpretation I'm not smart-).

Also this one part goes really hard.

"Lick thy mother's bleeding lips, from this glass of hate we sip- GAH! FUCK THE GLASS WE PUMP THE KEG!

KILL CONCEPTION AT. THE. EGG!

Her chin is wet with someone's hate.. love disfigure, amputate..

AMPUTATE!...

AMPUTAATE!..

Can you remember how it felt to be alive? Your God Machine is cold and dead, your eyes they cannot cry.. FUCK YOUR DEITIES OF DYING LOVE!.. We have shot them down from the skies above..

Screaming.. convulsing my eyes are bleeding...

BE SILENT NOW AND TAKE YOUR BEATING!!"

1. Locust Spawning

Well to start off, if the opening riff alone doesn't sell you then... "the locusts are coming"

"SO THIS IS IT!!"

"YOU'RE A DEAD MOTHERFUCKER WADING THROUGH A WORLD OF SHIT! WITH DUST ON YOUR LIPS TELL ME DO YOU EXIST??"

"YOU WERE BORN TO. DIE. LIKE. THIIIS!-

-CHINS SMEARED RED WITH CONSPIRACYY! THE FIENDS NOD OFF AFTER BLOODSEX AND BLASPHEMY!!!"

"YOU WERE BORN. TO DIE LIKE THIS FOR ME."

"̵C̴H̶I̷N̵ ̸S̷M̴E̶A̶R̷E̸D̵ ̶R̵E̶D̶ ̴W̸I̵T̵H̶ ̴C̴O̷N̸S̶P̶I̸R̸A̶C̵Y̴Y̶Y̵Y̴!̷!̴!̷!̶!̶"̶

This is their heaviest song imo, I've nearly broken my neck head banging to this in the shower.

That's really it, I appreciate and love you if you actually read this far and gave a shit so thank you. I'll do another post if anyone cares about other bands I like or maybe take a recommendation? Idk, we'll see or I'll probably just delete this out of embarrassment and never post again.

Bye 🩵

[the1entirecircus]

Task Force X Suicide Squad Pokemon Teams

Here is my picks for the pokemon the members of the Suicide Squad would choose.

---

Amanda Waller

Malamar- An obvious pick because of her manipulative and malicious nature.

Mandibuzz- A pokemon associated with similar death and malice that Amanda is known for.

---

Rick Flag

Watchog- Rick often overwatches the missions of Task Force X

---

Harley Quinn

Mightyena- Harley owns a Hyena called Bud

Mightyena- Lou is the other Hyena that Harley owns

Gliscor- Since she's a part of the Batfamily now, her gliscor reflects that part of her. Her Gliscor would also have the hidden ability poison heal which reflects her history with Joker.

Roserade- A nod to her relationship with Ivy that also involves part of Harley's color scheme

Tinkaton- Harley's best known weapon is her giant mallet.

Mega Lopunny- This Lopunny has been through everything with Harley, including the Acid bath that bleach Harley's skin. This turned Harley's Lopunny into a meta pokemon that can mega evolve.

---

Captain Boomerang

Marowak- Boomerangs

Manetric- Electric Boomerang

Perrserker- Bladed Boomerang

Excaldrill- Razor Boomerang

Galarian Rapidash- the toy unicorn he has in the movie

---

Killer Croc

Mabosstiff- Killer Croc is a crime lord in Gotham City

Feraligatr- Killer Croc is based on the alligator of the sewer myth.

Krookodile- Crocodile (well, Gharial, but similar enough to a crocodile) thats also a crook.

Druddigon- Croc's skin condition gives him a rough exterior

---

King Shark

Quagsire- Many often see King Shark as dopey thanks to The Suicide Squad movie.

Cetitan- Another creature that once dwelled in the sea but can walk on land.

Mega Sharpedo- Great White Shark (Well, not really, but its shaped similarly)

Tapu Fini- He is a hawaiian demigod.

---

Peacemaker

Braviary- Its Eagly

Seismitoad- Activate Sonic Boom

Chandelure- A nod to how he can see the ghosts of people he's killed.

Scolipied- Scabbies for all (its a stretch i know)

Haxorus- Doesn't he use an ax in the movie?

Incineroar- Peacemaker is sort of a heel in terms of wrestling. He also doesn't care but secretly does like Incineroar.

Peacemaker's team consists of pokemon that come from Unova and Alola given that Peacemaker is a Captain America parody.

---

Deadshot

Intelleon- Deadshot is known for his espionage skills so handing him an Intelleon was an obvious choice.

Luxray- A perfect pokemon for Lawton's job, its x-ray eyes can see through anything

Sandaconda- Another type of gun-related pokemon.

---

Katana

Ceruledge- This is Katana. She's got my back. I would advice not getting killed by her. Her sword traps the souls of its victims.

Mega Lucario- A nod to her spiritual ties

---

Enchantress

Mismagius- She's a witch!

Spiritomb- An ancient artifact containing an evil spirit or just evil spirits.

Cofagrigus- Another archeological pokemon

---

Reverse Flash (Daniel West)

Orthworm- Daniel gained his abilities in a train accident.

Elektross- Daniel's Elektross is a meta pokemon. Its able to manipulate metal due to the accident which gave it a connection to the Speed Force.

---

El Diablo (Chato Santana)

Skeledirge- Spanish in origin

Salandit- A male salandit which ties into his criminal history and partly to how he killed his wife and children. Again, partly.

---

Deathstroke

Intelleon- He's a bounty hunter, so Intelleon was a good choice for him.

Talonflame- A nod to his connections with Robin/Nightwing

Hydrapple- A nod to the film title of Deathstroke: Knights & Dragons as well as his ability to regenerate as his Hydrapple has that ability

Olympian Aegislash- Deathstroke has been known to hold the Godkiller Sword, a weapon that is able to kill gods.

Gardevoir- This is taking a darker turn as this is in reference to Deathstroke's manipulative nature as he manipulated this Gardevoir to be loyal to him.

Kingambit- Deathstroke is not only an assassin like many samurai but he is also a leader.

I wanted to give Slade a very good team, and while I'm not an expert on pokemon teams, I think this is the best I could offer. Like Batman, Slade has other pokemon at his disposal that are also in nod to his other skills.

---

Bloodsport

Kryptonian Minior- A reference to him shooting Superman with a kryptonite bullet.

Klinklang- Bloodsport's armor in the movie The Suicide Squad is made up of nano-technology. To reflect this, his Klinklang is a meta pokemon made by Lex Luthor.

Shiftry- This is a stretch, but this is a reference to his time in Vietnam in the comics, as that was a part of his original origin.

---

A lot of these guys don't have full pokemon teams because A) I don't know enough about them and B) some don't seem like they would have full teams.

re: that tourism poll, ACID BATH HOUSE? PLEASE EXPLAIN

The house was knocked down many many years ago as it had become a ghoulish tourist hotspot. Haigh was one of the UK's most famous serial killers of the time.

[ask-prosci]

Wow, you have a guitar. Do you play it? Whats your favorite song on it?

I don't have a drawing for this ask. Thank you for asking regardless. I'll doodle something when I have the time.

It's actually a bass. We've owned one for a while and I am just getting around to... Well, thinking about playing it. I have an entire playlist dedicated to songs I would like to learn one day. Here are a few:

1. Nights In White Satin - The Moody Blues

2. Andy, You're A Star - The Killers

3. Scream Of The Butterfly - Acid Bath

4. Orion - Metallica

5. Airbag - Radiohead

If people are curious about my music taste, I love curating playlists and I especially love sharing stuff with people.
