#and so is deku tbh

[theloveinc]

omg.. deku getting a belly bc of ur food wahh <33 listen i cannot cook like AT ALL even tho i try so hard grr anyways thinking abt being married to him and slowly making progress in your cooking that when he starts getting his tummy you have this sudden realization that you've gotten sm better and it makes you so motivated to cook more and experiment and try different recipes and deku is like "? where did this come from?" but doesn't complain bc he gets to eat more of your delicious food and gets to see you happy <33333333

YES this is exactly it... and it's not like I don't think Deku can cook, it's just... he doesn't have time all that much to really do anything more than throw something random together if he's alone and needs to eat.

So I can imagine the whole thing starts when you use your interest in cooking to begin making bentos and lunch boxes for him to have at work instead of going out all the time or simply just starving (can you imagine, before all this, maybe even when you're still dating, the little dip he gets in his abdomen from a hollow stomach. You're all freaked out because he's not eating enough and hasn't been and he's just *shrug :)* lmaooo)... and eventually it just escalates into you including whole tupperwares of new things that you've made for him to try that he can never say no to🥺

WHICH NOT ONLY LEADS TO your happiness and his improved health, but also a nice bulky lil belly for you to caress when you're both in bed👅 head on his chest hand on his soft and hairy tummy while you fall asleep, I yam going to CRY.

this is literally one of my favorite panels of the war arc.

i am OBSESSED with deku’s perception of romance and how it’s probably based off popular melodramas and his peers’ stories about their dates.

because you can’t argue with me that that’s the reason why he will have no idea his and katsuki’s relationship is so close to romantic. i’m so sure he’s gonna be the last one to realise his feelings for katsuki aren’t purely friendly and platonic. the guy will be like “oh yeah we’re really close and i care about him deeply and i hate the very thought of him being hurt and i wanna spend the rest of my life next to kacchan but haha that’s just our friendship! we’re not holding hands and sharing crepes so there are no romantic feelings involved🥰”

bro is gonna be so shocked when kacchan finally confesses his true feelings.

tgck and bkdk parallels make so much more sense when you think of it as Katsuki paralleling Uraraka and Izuku paralleling Himiko instead of the other way around…

[dragonpigeons]

hello deku long time no see

the latest chapters got me hype for my boi

[strawberijasper]

Cheerleader!Deku x jock!Bakugou but hear me out…it’s sapphic…

Izuku with a cute high pony and bows, wearing her girlfriend’s team jacket over her cheer uniform. It’s big and warm and smells like Kacchan and Izuku steals it any chance she can get. Katsuki with short hair and muscles… idk what sport she’d play but she’s playing one of them and she’s 100% the star player. Team captain type vibes probably. A hot head on the field but then Izuku is running up to her and her scowl drops, replaced with the most whipped expression the team has ever seen.

Or Katsuki “hanging out” (standing around silently) with her team, only half listening to the conversation. She sees green hair out of the corner of her eye and her expression softens, eyes light up. She walks away abruptly to her friends calling after her, but she doesn’t hear them. Katsuki throws her arm over Izuku’s shoulders, startling the poor girl. The other girls on the cheer team giggle and excuse themselves, leaving the two lovebirds alone.

I’d write something with this but I don’t actually know anything about sports, might draw it one of these days tho. Idk I think it’s cute.

Mha chapter 429 Spoilers! Deku hugging ochaku mirrors exactly ochako's hug when Deku's 'heart' went out of control back all those chapters ago. In both cases, both their hearts were out of control because of someone else. Izuku because of Katsuki and Ochako because of Toga. Again, they're mirrors. They've been mirroring each other for a long time. Izuku knew exactly what to say, because he literally understands. He really does. Now, I absolutely loved the tenderness of the scene. The 'hey, you can let the ugliness out, I'm here, it's okay. You can let it out." Izuku has been dealing with his own closed-off heart for a long time, and we still haven't seen HIM open up properly. I'm not sure how the manga will handle it, IF it will. But it feels like there's something missing, for Izuku's character to round up. I vote for Deku vs Kacchan 3, a reversed of 'The only one that can accept Kacchan's feelings is me'

Me personally, I’m a very big fan of how Horikoshi handled his themes around forgiveness. I love that he really hammers in that forgiveness is a choice that someone can or cannot make, and that neither of those decisions are necessarily “wrong” or “harmful”, that they’re just that. Choices.

And I realized just how much I enjoyed how he handles this because of these leaks. Like him choosing to never forgive Shigaraki for what he’s done, yet wanting to end the suffering as much as possible I feel really speaks to an experience I could never put into words. It’s so viscerally human to be angry, happy, sad; it’s human to forgive, it’s human to not. It’s human to empathize with someone you fundamentally feel shouldn’t be empathized for, and yet it is the single most prominent structure of ancient human societies. We live to empathize, it’s why we have a dog in our house, or we help heal a stranger back to health; and I don’t necessarily think is what “makes us human” bc I feel that excludes people who don’t (because they do exist and nothing is wrong with them for not doing so), but I think it does speak to a very common feeling. It’s normal to want revenge, or to be angry, or to not forgive, but it’s also perfectly normal to want to end the suffering from its source.

That’s also a prominent feature of the Todoroki family, and it’s also what made me so angry about the interpretations surrounding it. There’s nothing wrong with Fuyumi or Natsuo to respond differently to their shared father’s abuse, they’re normal and expected ways to handle one’s inner turmoil. There is healing in forgiving someone, that’s a perfectly truthful idea. But what’s also a way to heal is to simply not let someone matter in your life, you can simultaneously be angry for what they’ve done…and be perfectly fulfilled/healed.

Horikoshi isn’t telling you to forgive bad people, he’s telling you that there’s a reason behind every bad action, that empathy and shared humanity is the single most integral part to a healthy society.

And I love this EVEN MORE because Midoriya Izuku: Rising isn’t even about Izuku, it’s about how everyone else has brought him here, now. That we are one people, one society—Izuku may be the driving horse but he stands as a symbol of our shared humanity in this moment.

I wish I could find the officials rn but I’m gonna have to interpret this given what it is.

Ochako’s choice to “not wipe your slate clean” almost feels less like a “I can’t forgive you” and more like a “society won’t forgive you” statement.

Where Izuku’s or Natsuo’s choice to not forgive someone who has hurt them was a personal decision, this was more of a decision to empathize with Himiko, maybe even forgive her. I can’t help but notice that this was much more of a confession/declaration of affection for someone who has done bad things, than it was about forgiveness and mistakes.

It almost feels more like the bkdk apology if I’m honest. Both of which never have a “I won’t ever forgive you for this” statement, more like they avoid it in its entirety. Same with Rei and Endeavors conversations.

Because it is the victims choice to forgive or not forgive someone. They have as much a right to do so as anyone else.

I guess that’s why I always hated the whole “Izuku shouldn’t forgive Katsuki” take, it’s a very literal commentary on the very thing Horikoshi has written is wrong. It’s wrong to try to tell someone how they should or shouldn’t have reacted to something, you are taking away their integrity. To a certain extent you are infantilizing their ability to make choices for themself.

So it’s for this reason that my love for this series shoots to the sky at this “I won’t forgive you” moment. It’s like Izukus guilt has been lifted, that he has allowed himself to be angry or bitter at someone for wronging him or someone he loves. The mask has fallen, this is it; Izuku and Tenko, and he is being honest of his feelings.

That’s what I love most—the honesty, the anger, the relief, the love, and that these are his choices. No one can take that away from him. Not you, not I, not us.

I can’t believe Sero KNEW Bakugou would lose his shit when he heard that Deku was in a coma. He’d said, “I’ll tell you everything, but please stay calm when you hear.” He couldn’t have been talking about the injuries sustained by the surviving heroes and students; Katsuki’s already been through experiences where his mentors and friends suffered serious injuries due to villain attacks, so it wouldn’t make sense for Sero to tip-toe around the subject.

No, the real problem was that Sero knew he was going to be more or less telling Bakugou, “everyone is gonna be okay EXCEPT Deku, whose survival is uncertain.” It means he knew that Katsuki would not be able to cope with the news about Deku specifically. And he was right.

[thefairmaidenoffandom]

[marieanneline]

random post canon tddk au where pro hero shoto and teacher izuku go to a baseball game!! the camera chooses them during the kiss cam segment and shoto just lets out a deep sigh, pops one of those listerine breath strips, and goes "well i guess we HAVE to" before grabbing izuku's face

[novaneondream]

Here are some extra headcanons about Izumi

- loves fashion and likes to diy jewelry and design outfits inspired by her favorite heroes

- personal stylist for her parents (mostly Deku lol) when they go to hero events

- other hobbies include dance, sketching, and journaling

- habitual rambler

- Her and Katsuki are always competitive for Izuku’s attention (Izuku loves them both)

- thinks Katsuki is lame lol and calls him old man (Mitsuki gets a kick out of it and Deku thinks “like father like daughter”)

- likes to hangout with Uncle Todoroki’s daughter (To Todoroki’s delight and Bakugou’s dismay)

Todoroki: Yknow we might become brother in laws one day

Bakugou: over my dead body
