#endeavor ment

[super-paper]

in the bnha story fantasy is used to reject and ignore someone else like Tenkos family, who rejected the reality of the situation in favor of the fantasy of a happy family. if they admitted that it wasn’t a happy family it would be like challenging the fantasy of a happy family that they created for themselves and admitting their complacency in the abuse. they ignored reality in favor of fantasy in turn ignored Tenko who was hurting  Afo has control over the narrative and likes being in control by reducing people to roles and archetypes instead of people. he likes to lose himself as a character and doesn’t want to be understood as a human he rejects reality in favor of his fantasy but when his control of the narrative and fantasy is being challenged he becomes aggressive he loses control of the narrative he was piling up, for example, ofa is the only quirk that can not be controlled he is technically is eating his own words “reality doesn’t follow the old playbook” with the same reality he used to reject is now turning on him in the form of ofa.  izuku has been given a quirk and now attends ua he got to live his dreams as a hero he gets to live out his fantasy but while he was using his quirk he constantly gets injured due to his lack of control when izuku lived out his fantasy, in turn, ignored his mother's feelings as a consequence. which comes to a head when she was discussing after being back in school

Ye!!!!!!

MHA acknowledges that fantasy is not inherently a bad thing-- It can inspire people and give them the strength they need to get through their lives! It can give them hope for their future! It helps people dream of becoming better and becoming happier! It can be a wonderful and healing force! It can save people! Fantasy has value and that value deserves to be acknowledged and respected! But, fantasy should never be used to ignore or cover up pain instead of healing it. Pretending that everything is all right when it's not or pretending that the problem will just go away if you refuse to acknowledge it is where fantasy starts to segue into escapism.

Like, to clarify I don't think every issue in MHA falls under the banner of "fantasy as escapism" (in the case of Tenko's household, there were a looooot of complex factors at play and I don't want to diminish or oversimplify any of them)-- but a lot of the core plots in MHA do involve fantasy/escapism in some capacity, so like, it's hard not to think of it as one of the main themes in the series lol.

Outside of AFO's whole deal (and Tomura's) (and Toshi's) (& Izuku's), one of my favorite examples of "Fantasy as escapism" vs "Fantasy as healing" in mha actually comes from the Todoroki plot:

The anime adds a scene of Endeavor sitting in a dark room and wallowing in anger/self-pity as he watches All Might be lauded as the ~*~ultimate superhero~*~ on TV, while Rei watches on in horror-- it's an absolutely horrifying scene, and I do understand why some ppl are mad the anime added it because it's framed in a very..... viscerally uncomfortable way. But, I like the scene purely from a narrative standpoint because I feel we're meant to draw comparisons to an early-MHA scene between Shouto and Rei:

In this scene, Shouto associates watching All Might on TV with a tender, happy memory. Everything is framed in a warm and bright way, and Shouto takes what All Might and Rei are saying to heart-- That he must be able to recognize who he is and appreciate himself independently of his quirk, and that he isn't bound by blood. It's ok for him to want to be a hero because HE wants to, and not because Endeavor tells him he has to be one. This memory, combined with Izuku telling him that "his quirk belongs to him and he alone gets to decide how to use it," allows Shouto to finally start healing.

"And that's the despicable truth!"

Meanwhile, Enji uses fantasy purely as escapism from a wound he wont allow to heal and as a way to mask his own ugliness as a person. He projects all his fantasies about "All Might" being this invincible, unbeatable, undying superman onto Toshinori-- and he's spent his entire life madly chasing after a vision of All Might that only exists in his head. He chases after the fantasy of becoming the ultimate superhuman because supermen don't have to worry about pesky human limitations like, say, dying. Or death. Or being killed. After all, if his father had been a "true superhuman," then SURELY he wouldn't have died and SURELY he would have been able to save that girl and NOTHING bad would ever happen ever, right?? ...... Right??????

Enji's long laundry list of sins starts with him treating his own sons as an extension of his fantasies and placing that absolutely impossible, unreasonable dream on their shoulders. The literal moment Enji is confronted with Touya's humanity-- that is, the moment he's confronted with his son's inevitable mortality-- Enji's immersion is broken. He immediately clams up and retreats as deeply as he can into his Endeavor persona, shutting Touya out and prioritizing sparing his own heart from injury over the heart of his son. Touya simply can't understand where his father went and spends his entire childhood trying to get him back. Mentally, Enji went out for a carton of milk and then never came back-- and Touya, a literal child, was left behind and expected to make sense of this abandonment.

To Touya, Enji and Endeavor were the same person: His dad. To Enji, Endeavor was an alter-ego-- just a mask he wore to feel better about himself and play pretend. All Touya wanted was for Enji be his father-- but being a father of course meant remembering that he is mortal, and that Touya is also mortal. So, Enji ran and continued to chase after his fantasies through Shouto while becoming more and more abusive towards his family for refusing to play along.

*AFO Voice*"This body is just a proooooooop what you're actually fighting doesn't have a tangible foooorm lol rofl lmfao 😂🤣🤣"

Endeavor is AFO's main foil for a reason. Like AFO, he uses fantasy as a form of toxic escapism-- both men essentially cannibalized their own families in their attempts to escape "humanity, weakness, pain, and death" and achieve their idea of "godhood," and both men attempt to live out their dreams through their children (AFO just takes this one to a literal extreme 💀💀💀). AFO and Endeavor are quite the pair, and Endeavor choosing to keep playing hero over confronting the realities of his responsibility as a father only enables AFO to also keep playing out his own comic book fantasies.

Speaking of fantasy.........!

When the clock strikes midnight and All Might turns back into Cindertoshi in front of the entire world, Endeavor's immediate reaction is to fly into an impotent rage and scream at him. As if to say "How dare you be human. How dare you be human when the entire basis for my whole fantasy specifically hinged on dehumanizing you. How dare you be a human, just like me!" Endeavor never understood what made Toshinori an actual hero and spent his life treating Toshi as an unreachable, unattainable "other"-- And now that dream is over. Toshinori's just a regular human, and supermen don't exist. The cold, hard, cruel reality of what he did to his family finally sets in.

Just as Touya's constant burns forced Enji to confront the reality of Touya's and his own mortality, All Might's true form again forces Enji to confront the "human" part of the superhuman ideal-- he is forced to admit that there is no such thing as a "true superhuman" and that he was always chasing after a fantasy that never existed.

Side Note: Enji looking at All Might and basically saying "YEAH YEAH COOL COOL I'M SURE EVERYTHING WOULD'VE BEEN FINE AND I NEVER WOULD'VE HAD TO EXPERIENCE ANY PAIN IF *YOU* WERE MY DAD. WATCH ME FATHER FOUR CHILDREN TO SHOW YOU JUST HOW FINE I WOULD BE IF *I* WERE YOU AND YOU WERE ALSO MY DAD AND ALSO IF YOU WERE MY SON (???) :)" is like next level unhinged and I don't think the fandom talks about it enough lmfao. Dadmight game so strong it created a generation of deadbeat fathers who would rather fantasize about ~All Might takin' them to the ball game~ than raise their own damn kids.

Another aside....!!! Bakugo's reaction in particular always gets me during the Toshirella reveal, bc Bakugo n' Endvr are so often foiled with each other-- but their reactions are like night and day.

Like Endeavor, Bakugo is witnessing the moment his untouchable, unconquerable fantasy "falls to earth" and gets exposed as someone who as just as human as him, just as human as anyone else, and just as capable of getting hurt and discouraged as anyone else. Unlike Endeavor, though, Bakugo's reaction is neither scorn nor blame-- he instead chooses to cheer for Toshinori harder and louder than ever:

Another day, another instance of Endeavor getting absolutely owned in some vague capacity by a teenager lol. I should turn this into a drinking game and just get, like, completely smashed. I mean I would probably definitely die by the time we reach the part where he starting gets verbally browbeat by horribly bitchy visions of his teenaged self, but at least I would go out doing what I love: bullying fictional middle-aged men.

^ The above is another good example of how fantasy isn't always harmful when you're still willing to accept the reality underneath it. When the chips are down, one of the things that really defines you in this series is how you react when that layer of "fiction" gets violently ripped away and you see what's underneath:

PILE ONE ⚔️

Some of the people who chose this Pile could be mothers, or your enemy could be a mother. Could even be YOUR Mother. Take what resonates leave the rest. I'm kind of getting a vibe here that this person is being seen as very self serving.

This could be someone who uses their children to manipulate others. It seems like they're digging a hole they'll have a hell of a time dragging themselves out of.

I see here where a child could've been used to pull on heart strings or push boundaries.

I heard Sagittarius so some of you could be 9th housers or have significant sag energy. Could also be the other person in question.

This person is about to have a lot of their lies revealed publicly or socially

These lies could've been about you or your capabilities as a parent? There could also be something revealed about their parenting skills or how they treat children.

They could be moving or wanting to move soon?

Once again this has to do with a child.

I immediately think of possibly a child being hidden? I thought of the pusha T drake diss, the part where he goes "you are hiding a child" and I'm also thinking someone could be trying to run from taking responsibility for something?

It could potentially result in legal troubles.

They could be moving in order to escape accountability or backlash?

They also could have stolen money or resources from you, and if you have decided to take legal action or are soon headed that route there's going to be a lot of consequences for them.

To the point they may even try to flee the country?

That's super specific and not for everyone, but it may resonate for some specific people.

There could be some sort of plan being devised by this individual. Maybe they're planning a vacation or wanting to buy a vacation home? Perhaps this is why I saw something regarding travel. This also explains the "escaping" or "running away" vibes I was getting.

So this person could be going on a vacation get away to escape some sort of drama or backlash they receive. This is looking like a family vacation of some sorts.

I definitely think whatever this is will likely end up going a legal route due to the presence of the justice card.

I feel like the rug is going to be ripped from beneath this person and that the stability they've cultivated may begin to crumble. Possible family issues, feeling very much stuck or trapped in some sort of situation or position that there's not much of an escape from.

That or they will be feeling too exhausted to even take action in this situation.

A new endeavor they try to start will result in a judgement of some kind that is going to effectively bring all of their momentum to a halt.

PILE TWO 🌑

Tw: grooming ment

I do feel that your enemies may have begun secretly trying to move on from some sort of conflict they've instigated recently?

It seems their hands may be tied regarding some sort of situation.

I heard sticky situation, so theres definitely going to be evidence left behind of their actions. 🤣 I feel like there was or will be a lot of losses and social conflict for them.

Perhaps losing friends or some sort of family support in regard to a conflict they created.

This person may be highly charismatic, it could be a fire sign male. I kind of get the feeling this person could have a very solid reputation for something they do?

It's funny because while they may be chilling rn, it won't be forever.

I feel like this person is likely HIGHLY delusional, like honestly no matter what happens to them they tend to maintain an "I'm better than everyone else and I'm doing great" perspective even in the throes of the toxic cesspool that is their life.

I'm seeing where soon this person could be feeling totally isolated due to the ending of a relationship of some kind?

There may start to be small instances of others beginning to recognize this person's true nature.

I heard Capricorn, and The Devil came out. So it's possible this person has a Capricorn placement.

Their shit is about to get rocked, their security is about to be destroyed, and they're gonna be fighting for their lives just to keep their head above water.

This could be someone who wished illness or death upon you. Someone who takes advantage of others mental weaknesses and molds them to their liking.

Like it's giving groomer energy, not gonna lie.

I'm thinking of the pillar of severity on the kabalistic tree of life.

There's some sort of severance they're going to experience. Perhaps they could be getting a severance package from a job and it's not going to be enough to survive?

This person is very delusional about how they're actually perceived. I get the feeling not many people with common sense and critical thinking skills are a fan of this person.

They could gravitate towards children? For some this person could go to jail due to something involving a child. Or they could be held accountable for something involving a child.

It doesn't have to be like anything s*xu*l per se. It could be something involving child endangerment? This is weird because pile 1 involved children as well, and talked about the legal system and I do know mercury is about to retrograde in August which is Leo season and Leo is associated with the 5th house which deals with children.

Ultimately I feel like while this person is bound to end up suffering it's likely they won't even connect the dots as to WHY it's happening to them. They don't seem very self aware. It's weird though bc they don't see themselves as a victim either. It's like they literally just don't care. Super odd.

PILE THREE 🥀

So this person could be an ex, maybe even an ex situationship? This person might be a serial cheater, or they could be dating a serial cheater 🤣 there's definitely some 3rd party shit going on that one of the people involved in this connection has no idea about or is being mislead about.

I'm seeing something about feeling a lot of social pressure. Perhaps fearing the effort they're putting in to cultivate an audience or some form of acknowledgement will be for naught.

It's possible they aren't getting the traction they hoped for or that they feel they deserve.

There could've also been some sort of loss in the family recently? Either falling out with a core family member so a parent or grandparent or an actual death. This could also look like getting brushed off by the family.

Some sort of physical conflict could've occurred as a result of a secret or hidden action. Something that was done very sneakily, it's something they've tried to remove and clear and run away from for quite some time?

This looks like some sort of argument where they're being held accountable and they play the victim 🤣

I feel like they're going to lose something as a result of doing this. Or that the way they treat women is going to become very apparent to others? There's a tower moment coming their way, idk why I get an inkling you'll somehow hear about it or be able to witness it. This person could have psychotic meltdowns sometimes?

Not saying that in a mean way at all, but like it's giving a severe crisis and a really bad meltdown. I heard punishment and ashamed, so they could be feeling very ashamed of themselves.

If you did some sort of spellwork regarding this person it definitely worked.

They're very scared about some kind of relationship. I heard the name Tyra? Could be relevant to some, if not disregard it.

There could be an earth and air sign woman holding this person accountable for their actions and balancing the scales for you. What's interesting is these could be people who initially betrayed you for or because OF this person?

Some sort of endeavour this person has been planning may fail as well.

Sorry this Pile is so short compared to the other 2, there's a lot of obscurity and weird shit going on here 🤣.

For Eternity, Chapter 2 of 13

Alastor x Angel!Wife Oc (Isabel) Rated: Adult - this fic contains content inappropriate for minors. Chapter Warnings: Suggestions of sexual assault

Masterlist AO3 KoFi

“Welcome back, Ladies!” Alastor was in the hotel lobby as soon as the doors opened. “How did your ill-fated endeavor go?” 

“Bad.” Vaggie answered, not wanting to talk about any of it. The less people that knew her angelic origin story, the better in her mind. 

“Alastor?” Charlie tried to find the similarities between the man in the picture she had spent most of the trip home looking at and the one standing before her. 

“Whatever can I do for you?” He was in front of her in a heartbeat, leaning into her space slightly, hands planted on his cane as was his way.

“I think maybe I have something for you?” Charlie held out the silver pocket watch. 

“Angelic steel?” He asked as he stepped closer, eyebrow cocked in curiosity. “As a pocket watch? What a silly trinket to bring back. Pocket watches were a thing of the past long before my day.”

“It was given to me. A woman, she asked me to give it to you. At least, I think you’re who it’s for. Maybe there’s another Alastor? Or one who isn’t dead yet. Or one that already had their soul destroyed. Or-”

Alastor bounced the watch in his hand a few times, enjoying the weight of a well made pocket watch in the palm of his hand. Wristwatches had indeed replaced the pocket by in his time on earth. Still, they had an elegance he had favored in life that few knew about. 

They made handy trinkets to fiddle with. In life, he’d run his thumb over the faceplate of the watch his wife had gotten him while he stalked his victims… or while he sat through pointless meetings. 

She had gotten it for him as a gift early in their marriage, upon discovering his rather modest personal collection. It’s weight lived in his pocket during those few short months they had spent together. In the time after her death however, he had wore the faceplate smooth, running his thumb over it again and again as he went about his daily life. 

Alastor froze as he opened the watch. A face he had spent what felt like eternity trying to forget looked up at him.

He had hoped that was where she was. He had feared she had already perished in hell, having been damned for one wrong thought or some childhood action like so many of the weakest sinners in the realm. 

Static jumbled his voice, radio filter going heavy, “Where did you get this?” 

“A woman, she gave it to me.” A shiver ran up Charlie’s spine as Alastor clicked closed the watch and slipped it in his pocket, moving without a trace of the dangerous flair of power he had displayed. “Do you- is she-”

“My wife.” He confirmed. Though they had been separated in death, he wouldn’t deny her. He had spent decades trying and failing to forget her, but he would never deny her outright. 

“You had a wife?” Angel was too shocked to add any quips to his question. Alastor having a wife ment that surely, at some point he had an interest in more than just himself. “Does that mean that you do-”

“I advise you to speak carefully,” Words came nearly lost in static as shadows deepened, lights dimmed and Alastor’s back twisted and his neck turned far more than should have been possible so Angel was faced with his terrifying face. 

“What is she like?” Charlie was eager to settle the mood and learn more of the woman who she had only gotten to meet for a fleeting moment.

“She was sweet as honey. A woman truly deserving of Heaven.”

“How’ed she end up with a fella like you?” Angel stuck his neck out to ask the question on everyone’s mind, not having enough sense of self preservation to keep his mouth shut after the first warning. 

“I was far from deserving of her,” Alastor felt like such didn’t need saying. “We had family connections pushing us together. Is she well?” 

Charlie hesitated, her mind replaying the way Adam manhandled the wisp of a woman. 

“She’s in Heaven.” Vaggie answered, as if that was an answer. 

Alastor accepted it with a nod, “I thank you for bringing me her trinket.” 

“She said to tell you that she loved you,” Charlie blurted out. “No, that’s not exactly it. She would always love you, that was it. I didn’t have a chance to talk to her but she said she would wait forever for you.”

The wide toothed smile on Alastor’s face closed, pulling tight, “She shouldn’t.”

“You can try for redemption.” Charlie felt renewed hope for him. He had someone to be redeemed for!

“No, thank you.” Alastor’s smile grew again, cut wide by his sharp teeth. “I am hardly the man she knew. I thank you again, for the trinket, and carrying my Isabel’s message. Good Night.”

~~~~~<3

Adam was in a rage as he threw her against the wall. Isabel wished for nothing more than to die. If this was heaven, she didn’t want to be here. 

“What were you talking about!”

“I just wanted to find him.” She whimpered in the face of Adam’s rage. He was held up as the perfect man, the first man. If he was placed next to the man she loved though, he couldn’t even live up to his shadow. 

“He’s a disgusting Sinner!” Adam grabbed her again. “Why do you hold out for him? You could have me, the original dick.”

“You’ll never be half the man he was!” 

Adam threw her on the floor and loomed over her. “Take what I am willing to give you,” His hand grasped her ankle and pulled her toward him as she tried to get away. “And I will make you forget him.” 

“You’re as much a sinner as anyone in hell!” She kicked at him, “This is no Heaven. This is but a beautiful blasphemous lie. This is Hell!” 

~~~~~<3

Alastor sat in Rosie’s parlor, teacup of rich warm blood swirling as he was lost in his thoughts. Across from him sat his dearest friend in Hell. Her territory was a refuge for him, somewhere without cameras and where those who would spread idle gossip about him were not eager to wander inside.

“Alastor Dear, As glad as I am to see your face, what troubles you?” 

Rosie had been sitting in silence, watching him. She waited patiently for him to open up before her soft prodding, though she wouldn’t dare push or pry. Maintaining a friendship with her often chaotic fellow Overlord took some delicacy and respect for his many boundaries and walls.

“My wife,” Alastor’s smile was subdued yet ever present even as the weight of his punishment in hell crashed over him once again. 

It was a weight he had long ago gotten used to. He had learned to thrive under but when he was forced to remember this part of his living life, it was a stone around his neck that threatened to try to drown him. There wasn’t a chance in hell that he would let it.

He needed to once again cast aside the stone. She was where she belonged and he would never be with her again. So what if she waited for him? So what if she still loved him? She didn’t know the sins he carried. He needed to throw her memory aside, once again, and leave the past in the past. 

There was nothing that could be done to change anything. 

She sat back in her chair, back perfectly straight and empty eyes wide. Sure, she had been privy to the fact that at one time, he had been married but most gave up such ownership over their spouse after a few decades, referring to them as former, ex or late.

It was easy to assume due to his apparent lack of romantic or sexual drive that he had mentally divorced himself from the relationship long ago, shed the shackles that societal expectations bound him with in his life. They hadn’t spoken explicitly about his preferences or desires, it wouldn’t be proper, but she had a way of knowing these things. 

Or at least, she had thought she did.

The idea that taking a wife had been anything more meaningful to him than the socially expected and proper thing to do hadn’t crossed even her mind. All things exist in a spectrum, she supposed, and matters of the heart were rarely anything less than complex. 

Alastor placed a open pocket watch on the table between them after she was all but certain that he wasn’t going to discuss the matter further, “She’s in Heaven.” 

“How did you get this?” She asked, picking the silver watch, gleaming in a way things in hell rarely did, and examining the picture inside. 

It was hand sketched and ever so detailed. Crafting the image clearly took a significant amount of time. Someone had slaved over the artwork inside for a great many hours to produce something that had near photo results. 

“Is this-?” 

“My Darling and I, the day we wed.” Alastor confirmed. “She had always been a talented artist, though I’d say her skills have progressed significantly in the decades since she left my side.” 

“It’s very good,” Rosie said, “You made a lovely couple.” 

“Our Darling Princess delivered it when she returned from Heaven,” Alastor took a long pull from his teacup. “A gift from Isabel.”

“I’m so sorry, Alastor.” She slid the watch back toward him, not sure what the proper thing to say to him in that moment was. 

“No need, my dear friend.” He absently responded as he pocketed the watch, sparing a moment to run his thumb over the faceplate hiding the picture inside. “No need. She is where she belongs, as am I.” 

“Yet it weighs on you,” Rosie pointed out, “You long for her?”

“Perhaps.” Alastor wasn’t fond of the questioning but thankfully, Rosie did so with tact and respect. It was something lacking from the hotel residents who struggled to picture him caring for anyone, let alone as a husband. “She is safe, as she should be.”

“It’s a relief then?” Rosie asked, plucking a lady finger from the plate between them. “To know she didn’t parish in an extermination?” 

It hadn’t occurred to her that he had been looking for, hunting for anything more than the powerful demons he killed as he arose to power. Perhaps there had been a bit of something else driving the events of those days. Now wasn’t the time to ask however.

“To know that she is where she belongs,” Alastor countered.

“Which isn’t with you?” Rosie delicately tried to untangle the complexities of her dear friend. 

“Which is somewhere safe,” Alastor corrected. “You know just as well as I, Hell chews up and spits out those who are not savage enough to earn respect and take power.” 

~~~~~<3

Sulfur stung her nose as the portal to Hell opened. This was her chance, she had humored Adam though it had made her skin crawl to get to this moment. Adam wasn’t an intelligent man but still, it wasn’t easy to allow him to believe that she was finally willing to entertain his advances, his hands on her. 

It was too much to hope for that he would know anything about her husband but he was her ticket to where he was. It was common knowledge that Adam took his warrior angles between Heaven and Hell in order to protect the gates. 

There’s no way she could convince Adam to take her with him. Manipulation wasn’t her strength in the slightest. Just pretending to accept Adams advances was challenging enough. 

It wasn’t for nothing at least. It had gotten her here, standing at the front of the select crowd who would see off Adam and his warriors to the mighty battle as the citizens of Hell once again rose up to try and overtake the gates. This was a war only a select few knew about and being one of those few took work. 

Golden sparks kicked to life in the air in front of the army. Sparks grew, swirling to life into a large portal from what had started as a pinprick. Adam offered her a cocky grin that she did not return before he lead the first wave of his army though.

This was her chance, Isabel knew. It was now or never. If she let this chance pass by, she wouldn’t get another. 

Counting, Isabel prepared herself to do something she knew she could never come back from. 

One. Looking in the distance she saw her Mother-in-law nod her blessing. How she had managed to get that close, Isabel would never be able to ask her. Everything she had learned, everything she had feared, everything she had experienced in Heaven, she had shared with her dear Alastor’s mother. If anyone knew how much being separated from him was torture to her, it would be his mother. 

Two. She fluttered out her wings, tensing muscles and ruffling feathers. To pull this off she needed every feather in place. She needed every muscle to propel her forward before anyone could stop her. Hopefully at least. 

Three. One last deep breath of the cleanest air she would ever breathe as the hot sulphuric air wafted into heaven from the open portal. Just a few more rows of the army were left. 

 Now. She ran, long dress clutched in one fist as she hiked the hemline up to her knees, wishing she had worn the dip hemline she had favored instead of the ankle long hemline Adam liked. She had to manage without getting caught. She had to make it through and out of reach of the angels while she fell. 

One powerful beat after the other allowed her to pick up speed as she ran forward, going as fast as her legs would carry her. Then she was going faster, feet grazing the stone floors as she shot forward into the stream of deadly angel warriors.

Fingers grazed the feathers of her wings in a startled attempt to stop her as she shot away from the army. For a moment, she was disorientated. 

They were supposed to be high above hell, defending the gates from one of the frequent uprisings. She had planned to fall, hoping to miss the battle and fall fairly safely.

Instead, the portal all but threw her out into the battle near the grounds of Hell. This wasn’t right but Isabel had no time to get her feet under her. The air burned her lungs as she gulped  air as her wings beat with all the strength she could manage. 

Dodging out from the army, a black tentacle nearly knocked her out of the air. She had to get away from here, where ever here was before she could do anything else. Flying from rooftop to rooftop, she did everything she could to try and put distance between her and the battle without drawing attention to herself.

Once the fighting was over, she would look for him. First she had to find somewhere safer to wait out the violent fighting taking place around the large building. Surely, everyone would be paying attention to the battle and one lone angel wouldn’t draw too much attention, right?

Hell is Forever(whether we like it or not)

Charlie and Adam talking about the hotel

Charlie: please mom, isn’t there anything you can do to help? I really need, we need it, our people need this chance to live!

Adam: charlie

Charlie: if we get this chance imagine how many souls we can help

Adam: (slightly frustrated) Charlie

Charlie: and I know they messed up but that doesn’t mean

Adam: (fed up stops Charlie mid sentence) CHARLIE! let me stop you right there, save us both precious time, what your suggesting is letting them climb, up the ladder, do you think heaven will allow them to cross the pearly gates?

Charlie: well uh,

(Adam gently grabs her cheek and caresses it with a forlorn look on his face)

Adam: I’m sorry baby but there’s no defying fate, because hell is forever whether we like it or not, they had the chance to be better now they have to boil in the pot, because the rules are black and white there’s no use in trying to fight it, their burning for their lives and the angels kill em again

Charlie: but what if,

Adam: please try and relax Char, your not doing favors for yourself, your even implying that those souls don’t deserve death! Are they winners are they sinners, because it’s cut and dry

Charlie: well actually if we look at

Adam: fair is fair, an eye for an eye!

(Adam flies up and gets Charlie to look up)

Adam: when all said and done! There’s the question of fun? And for those with divine ordained ment, extermination is to help with the containment!

Adam: Hell is forever, whether we like it or not, they had the chance to be better now they have to boil in the pot!

I’m thinking I need some Dabi…maybe reader is the kid of a fellow villain the League is working with or even a former target, but they form a bond and he sneaks into their room from time to time to visit and label their relationship;)

Paring: Dabi x Reader

Word count: 1764

Warnings: Mentions of childhood trauma, spoilers for Dabi’s past if you haven’t seen that bit yet, talk of killing endeavor.

A/n: One, thank you for requesting. Two, I love you. Three, I hope you like it. I went for a more reader is also the kid of dick prohero and became a villain. 

Being the child of a hero wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. Having the constant pressure of being better than your parents and proving that you’re also great at saving people sucks. I spent my entire childhood trying to prove myself and when I failed to get into U.A my life just got worse. I was kicked out because how could I not get into the best hero school with my quirk.

    My quirk let me draw energy from the moon and stars and turn it into powerful attacks. I was also able to heal minor wounds with my quirk but nothing substantial enough to go into a medical field. Having a quirk that relied on the moon meant that taking the entrance exam in the middle of the day was extremely difficult, this resulted in me not scoring enough points to get in. This pissed off my parents who called me a disappointment for not being able to use my quirk during the day, not my fault but ok, they said they couldn’t bear to deal with a child that couldn’t be a hero so they kicked me out.

     That was eight years ago. I’ve spent that time living on the street and doing some not so legal things to survive. Being able to use my quirk at night made it fairly easy to steal from shops and people wandering the wrong parts of town late at night. I quickly earned the villain name of Moon Spirit. Now don’t get me wrong I wasn’t a villain in the sense of hurting people just to hurt people. I only did it to survive, if someone got hurt maybe they shouldn’t have been in my way.

     My ability to unleash powerful attacks at night is what led the League of Villains to recruit me. They were planning an attack on U.A’s current Class 1-A. This attack was to happen at night up in the woods, and they figured having my powers there would be valuable. They weren’t wrong, I was able to help keep the Pro-heroes distracted while the rest of the group went after a kid named Bakugo. After the attack and nearly being caught by All Might I officially joined the league. It just made sense, working in a group would offer more protection not to mention our goal was to overthrow this corrupt hero loving society, which was down to help with.

     I hated heroes after what my parents did and that hate only grew stronger as I got closer to a certain fire user who trusted me with the truth of his past. After finding out that Dabi was Endeavor’s oldest kid and hearing how the flaming ass treated his kids, I knew I would help Dabi take out the overgrown birthday candle. He also became aware of my past and agreed to help me take out my parents as well. 

     All of this happened in one of our secret late night meetings. Every night one of us would sneak into the other’s room and we would just relax. SOmetimes it would be playing some video game I managed to steal from Shigaraki, other nights we just layed down and vented about our trash parents. Right now it was a more relaxing night, I had Kurogiri warp me to a convenience store nearby where I snagged a bunch of candy and sodas, and now we are just watching random shows trying to forget the trauma of our life and enjoy each other's presence. 

      The comfortable silence that overcame the room as the current program ended on the tv was broken by Dabi. “What are we doing? I know what the League's plan is, that’s not what I’m talking about.” He asked and then began clarifying what he ment. “I mean what are me and you doing? We both know this probably isn’t going to end well, one of us is going to get captured or hurt. We shouldn’t be doing this, hanging out late at night sharing secrets and trauma bonding.” He stated sitting up and moving away from me.

      I was in complete shock. I know he’s right but I thought we were doing more than trauma bonding and I had to voice that. “I don’t think we are just trauma bonding, if that was the case you would have told me about your past long before these late night hang outs. You’re right that one of us is probably going to end up hurt or in jail but why can’t we enjoy our time together.” I said trying to get him to see that even if shit goes south in the future we can enjoy right now. “If you feel that sneaking out to talk in the middle of the night is pointless then just say the word, and I will go back to my room and act like nothing ever happened. But if you do that now you can’t change your mind. If there is any doubt in your mind that you still want to have these late night meet ups, then be quiet and play the next show.” I didn’t want to leave but if Dabi wanted to end it then so be it. I would walk away and lock these feelings away and pretend nothing ever happened.

      Dabi stayed silent for a moment. “I don’t want to stop doing this, but if we keep doing it I won’t be able to go through with my plan. I’ve grown too attached to you, I need to let you go before I change my mind on other plans.” He said not fully explaining himself.

      “What does that even mean? You grew too attached to me? Like you caught feelings, cause if that’s the case news flash so have I but that doesn’t mean you have to change any plans for that. I accepted that we may lose each other but I want us to spend whatever time we have left together. Don’t make us stop being together because you think you’re going to die, you should instead make more time for us to enjoy each other’s company.” I expressed my feelings, not noticing that he was staring at me wide-eyed not having expected this reaction. “I love you, Toya. And I’m tired of hiding it. If you really think you can’t go through with killing your dad because of your feelings for me then don’t do it. Hurt him in a different way, make him wish he was dead. But don’t cut me off.” I now had tears running down my face, not realizing what I had called him.

      To say Dabi was stunned would be an understatement. He never expected that suggesting our hangouts stop would lead to me saying I loved him, and definitely not me calling him his real name for the first time. “I-i love you too. But I wouldn’t even know where to start. The only way I can think to hurt him in such a way is hurting my brothers and sister, and I can’t do that. The best way to get revenge is to kill him and the only way for me to do that is to sacrifice myself.” He was letting his thoughts flow with no filter. It was the first time he admitted that he couldn’t hurt his siblings. “I know I said in the past I could hurt Shoto but I don’t think I can. I have to kill Endeavor . That's the only way to make him pay for everything he has done to us.” He had blood leaking from the staples near his eyes at this point. It would have scared me if I didn’t know that was because of how damaged his tear ducts are.

      I reached over and rested my hands under his eyes, letting the small amount of energy I gathered on my trip to store relieve some of the pain near his eyes. “It’s good to know that your feelings about hurting your siblings have changed, all they have done is be hurt by your father. I can see why you think killing him is the best option, but what if we did something a little less violent for once? I have a few ideas and it would hurt both of our parents.” I said trying to find a solution so that maybe he doesn’t have to die to get revenge. He looked at me confused for a second but nodded for me to continue. “We make videos. And before you ask, let me explain. We make videos telling the world all horrible things our parents have done. You tell the world how Enji Todoroki is an abusive ass who views his children as weapons to take down All Might, and when they don’t meet his standards he casts them aside like trash. Show them who you are. Let the world know that the new number one hero’s kid is alive and fighting against him. I’ll do the same explaining how my parents kicked me out because I couldn't be a hero. And to add salt to the wound we tell the world that we can’t be stopped as long as we have each other.” I told him. 

     He just looked at me for a second, before he responded. “I will agree to do that but only if you agree to never call me Toya again. As well as if he doesn’t completely break from being exposed as a horrible father you help me kill him, you have to help me end him so we both live.” He said resting his own hand on my check.

     I blushed as I realized I had in fact called him Toya earlier when my emotions had gotten the best of me. I just smiled and nodded. “If he somehow manages to overcome being outed as a dick, I will help you end him. And I apologize for calling you that. Let me rephrase, I love you Dabi.” I said with a smile. “Now if we are done with this mushy shit, I would like to watch some more movies with my boyfriend if that's okay with you.” I smirked at him as a slight blush over took his own face, well at least the parts not covered with deep purple scars.

     “Yeah, whatever.” he responded and moved so we were back to laying against each other to see the tv. The only difference was instead of crossing his arms behind his head he had one draped over my shoulders pulling me closer.

With each issue devoted to a single artist--Roland Topor, HR Giger, Unica Zürn, and Niklas Nenzén--Antonio Ramírez Mentes de Ácido's Óxido Lento from Spain is a fascinating endeavor. Order information below:

Hello, six months ago we published the first two issues of the fanzine Óxido Lento, focused on visionary, fantastic and surrealist art. It is a fanzine in the most classic sense, with cheap, practically artisanal editions and, of course, non-profit making. But with the ambition of presenting a selection of good images in each issue, and also accompanied by our own texts that deal with each topic in some depth.

The first was a special issue on Roland Topor, the master of black humour and absurdity. The second was on the dark universe of HR Giger.

We also published a special issue outside the collection: Desorden Orgánico, with automatic drawings of mine.

Now we are back with a second batch of fanzines.

Issue three is dedicated to Unica Zurn and her rich visual world full of magic and mystery. Her automatic drawings are an inexhaustible source of poetry. It includes a wonderful text by María Santana.

Number four is about the Swedish surrealist Niklas Nenzén, creator of delirious and strange images that assault our gaze to question and amaze us. It includes a recent interview published in English and Spanish.

If you are interested in purchasing the fanzines, we offer the following prices:

1 copy: 3 + 4 shipping costs

2 copies: 5.50 + 7 shipping costs

3 copies: 8 + 7 shipping costs

4 copies: 10.50 + 7 shipping costs

The complete collection (4 Oxido lento + Desorden orgánico): 12 + 7 shipping costs

The prices indicated are for Europe, for Spain the shipping costs are 3 euros.

If you wish, you can order it by private message, or through oxidolento@gmail.com

Pics: Shaded HPL portraits are, I think, the best way to honor his cosmic endeavors.

I particularly like numbers 7 & 8.

Number 9 is, of course, the Old Gent himself.

Intro: This is a look at Lovecraft's main literary themes & at his own particular worldview.

Both are usually intertwined & can lead to discoveries on a creator's work habits & personal beliefs.

This is a shortened version of Alex Kurtagic's masterful intro in his essay on HPL's The Conservative.

Work: Worldview, Part 1 -

Howard had an aristocratic, elitist & hierarchical¹ worldview.

(This, I've argued, was the result of being raised by his rich mother & even richer uncle - who were both training Lovecraft for a life as a rich heir.)

HPL basically rejected the trappings of egalitarian modernity², while he also embraced a nostalgic past.

He used, instead, a strict classicism³ with the archaic gentlemanly arts & propriety⁴.

Howard's use of an old-style British diction⁵, syntax⁶ & idioms⁷ only showed off his scorn for modern literary ideas & sociopolitical movements.

He also rejected the tenets of religion, superstition, romanticism⁸ - plus, the sterile & 'exhausted' sentimentality of the Victorian Age⁹.

Lovecraft dismissed them all as the products of simple ignorance.

HPL's cold worldview arose from his scientific interests, his own extreme rationalism¹⁰, a cynical materialism¹¹ & his profound cosmic indifferentism¹².

He was able to make a coherent & consistent philosophy out of these personal thoughts.

This is why The Conservative's most apparent feature is Howard's own literary style.

He grew up reading mostly British poems & literature of the early 1700s period.

And, came to feel that there was nothing better for him than this.

Lovecraft grew up in a social class with rigid conservative values - which led him to try improving the literary standards of his 'degraded' times¹³.

(But, his mother disproved of his tutoring of another kid & he stopped this early social experiment.)

HPL was a vocal critic of extreme radicalism¹⁴, artistic popularity, free verse¹⁵ & T.S. Eliot's¹⁶ "The Waste Land" - all of which he derided as "the grotesque displays of egotism & affectation¹⁷."

Due to his early reading material, Howard was attracted to the ideals of the Anglo-Saxons¹⁸.

This intense Anglophilia¹⁹ led Lovecraft to reject the American Revolution - to the point of some revisions of history.

Further, he offered his total allegiance to the British King²⁰ - while HPL was still quite young²¹!

Howard actively railed against the Americans who kept the U.S. apart from "The Mistress of the Sea²²."

He even denounced 'biased' history books that upheld "the independence of pig-headed politics & the economic interests of a seditious²³ minority."

Lovecraft thought the same about the Irish - blaming Hibernians²⁴ for will- fully "sowing division from a greater glory (England)."

Notes:

1. Aristocratic, elitist & hierarchical support the ideas of a ranked society & it's leaders living a privileged life above 'normal' folk.

2. Egalitarian is believing that every- one is equal & deserve the same rights & opportunities.

3. Classicism is following ancient Greek or Roman ideals of harmony, restraint & craftsmanship.

Craftsmanship, however, covered the period from the Renaissance to the 1700s!

4. Propriety usually means to follow the accepted morals & behavior of one's lifetime.

In Howard's case, however, he was speaking about the 'morals' of the 1700s.

5. Diction covers the choice of words that one uses.

6. Syntax is the arrangement of words that make well-formed sentences.

7. Idioms are words with meanings beyond that of the individual words.

Examples: "To rain cats & dogs" & "to see the light."

(For HPL, British norms of the 1700s were his major inspiration.)

8. Romanticism was a cultural move- ment of the late 1700s.

It emphasized: emotion, the irrational, subjective, nature, the primal human, expressions of feelings, remoteness & melancholy.

9. The Victorian Age was the reign of Queen Victoria: June 20th, 1837 til January 22nd, 1901.

In America, it was known as the Gilded Age - a period of economic growth, social reforms & strict cultural rules.

10. Rationalism is making decisions thru reason & knowledge, rather than using belief or emotions.

11. Materialism considers possessions & comfort as more important than any spiritual values.

12. Indifferentism usually means that no one religion or philosophy is better than another.

But, for Lovecraft, it meant that the universe at large doesn't care about human life nor 'destiny.'

13. The Decline of the West (1918) by Oswald Spengler states that man's 'historical weight' becomes 'diluted' the more that his culture becomes a 'defined' civilization.

Spengler thought that all Western Culture had entered the end of its civilized stage & was nearing its ending.

14. Radicalism wants complete quick social or political reform - usually thru violent means.

15. Free Verse is any poetry that doesn't rhyme nor has a regular pattern formed out of beats.

Howard especially hated the sensual free verse written by Walt Whitman.

16. T.S. Eliot was a British-American poet & essay writer.

He was a leader in the Modernist Movement in poetry.

(And so, was HPL's 'enemy.')

Among Eliot's works are:

A. 1915's "The Love Song of Alfred Prufrock."

B. 1922's "The Waste Land."

C. 1925's "The Hollow Men."

&,

D. 1930's "Ash Wednesday."

One of his most famous sayings is, "Life is a long lesson in humility."

17. Affectation is anything 'artificial' - a lie - that's meant to impress others.

18. Anglo-Saxons were a northern nation in ancient Germany.

During the 400s AD, they conquered most of eastern & central England.

They, in turn, we're conquered by the Normans (French Vikings & some others!!) in 1066 AD.

And, the surviving English were sent to the lower classes of society.

19. Anglophilia is an intense love for English people, culture, etc.

20. In 1915, this was King George the 5th, who would rule until 1936.

21.

22. "The Mistress of the Sea" were titles for England & Venice.

This was due to their powerful navies.

The phrase is originally taken from the Inuit (Eskimo) goddess Sedna, who was 1st described as the Mistress of the Sea.

23. Seditious is anything that gets folk to rebel against their state or leader.

24. Hibernians are the proud people of Ireland.

Hibernia, "Land of Winter?" is Roman for Celtic Iweriu, "Fertile Land?" from which the Irish got Eire, "Ireland"!

Iweriu was 1st known to the Greeks as Ierne, which describes the Iwernoi people who lived in southern Ireland.

Tomorrow: Part 2.

Rimanete immersi in quel puro vuoto che è la presenza di Dio e la vera fonte di ogni sforzo spirituale. Basta sinceramente presentarsi come candidati per la libertà. Avere fiducia, senza la necessità di conoscere qualcosa, come ad esempio quanto bene si stia ‘procedendo’, che cosa sia probabile che ‘accada’ e così via. Una volta risvegliato il senso della presenza, si avrà il coraggio di cedere tutto al potere massimo e di sciogliere la mente nel Sé. (White Fire – Mooji) ************************ Remain immersed in that pure emptiness which is the presence of God and the true source of all spiritual endeavor. It is enough to sincerely present yourself as candidates for freedom. Having confidence, without needing to know anything, such as how well you are 'progressing', what is likely to 'happen' and so on. Once the sense of presence has been awakened, one will have the courage to surrender everything to the maximum power and to dissolve the mind in the Self. (White Fire – Mooji)

Versione in italiano alla fine

OF THE MUSES: the existential universe of her sophomore album

"Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts and Saltwater" is the evocative title to OF THE MUSES' new album. Cristina Rombi, mind and soul of the project, is now in Brussels, Belgium, to record the new album. The potent production of Opus Magnum Studio, ran by famed producer and musician Déhà (Slow, ex-Dropdead Chaos, Wolvennest among others) will definitively shape the sound of the Italian artist's newest endeavor.

If with "Senhal" Cristina Rombi ushered us into a world of poetry, anger and melancholy, for "Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater", the talented Italian multi-instrumentalist will take us into a very private and intimate universe equally full of pain, but painted with utterly vulnerable and existential tinges, no longer conveyed through the extremism of screams, blastbeats and distortions, but rather with impressive emotional depth and staggering transparency both in lyrical themes and musical delivery.

Explains Cristina: "While I'm still internally debating whether or not 'concept album' is an appropriate definition, I can definitely say there's a red thread weaving together the sonic and lyrical tapestry of this album. At its core, this is an album about addiction, illness and losing a parent to AIDS during the health crisis of the 80s/early 90s, back when HIV was still an irrevocable death sentence. But in a broader sense, it's also about breaking cycles, finding closure, the devastating consequences of dehumanization and erasure, reckoning with life and death and what to do with the time we're granted here on Earth. It's really important for me to get these songs and these stories out there and I hope you will find them worthy of your time and attention".

We are deeply proud of what is about to emerge and incredibly eager to share it with all of you. "Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater" will be released next spring on My Kingdom Music on CD, vinyl and digital; further details to be revealed soon.

Keep in mind: OF THE MUSES is cathartic, eclectic and emotional Art!

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

OF THE MUSES: l’universo esistenziale del suo secondo album

"Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater" è l'evocativo titolo del nuovo album di OF THE MUSES. Cristina Rombi, mente ed anima del progetto, è volata in Belgio, a Bruxelles, per registrare il nuovo album presso gli Opus Magnum Studio del grande produttore e musicista Déhà (Slow, ex-Dropdead Chaos, Wolvennest tra gli altri) il quale ha il compito di plasmare definitivamente il suono potente della nuova ceratura dell'artista italiana. Se con "Senhal" Cristina, ci aveva introdotto in un mondo di poesia, rabbia e malinconia, con "Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater", la talentuosa polistrumentista italiana ci accompagnerà in un universo molto intimo e personale altrettanto ricco di dolore, ma dipinto con tinte vulnerabili ed esistenziali, espresse non più attraverso l'estremismo di urla, blastbeat e distorsioni, ma con una impressionante profondità emotiva e tagliente trasparenza, sia nel tema trattato, che per come questo viene manifestato in Arte, musica e parole. Nelle parole di Cristina: "Anche se non ho ancora deciso se 'concept album' sia o meno una definizione appropriata, ciò che posso dire con certezza è che c'è un filo rosso che percorre l'intelaiatura musicale e concettuale di questo disco. Più di tutto, è un album che parla di malattia, dipendenze e del perdere un genitore a causa dell’AIDS durante l'epidemia degli anni ottanta e novanta, quando ancora questa patologia equivaleva a una vera e propria condanna a morte. Ma è anche un disco sull'accettazione, sull'interrompere i cicli, sulle conseguenze devastanti della deumanizzazione e dell'invisibilizzazione, sul rapportarsi con l'idea della morte e sull'uso del tempo che ci è concesso sulla Terra. È davvero importante per me condividere queste canzoni e queste storie, e spero le riterrete degne della vostra attenzione".

Siamo profondamente orgogliosi di quello che sta per emergere ed incredibilmente desiderosi di condividerlo con tutti voi."Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater" diverrà realtà la prossima primavera su My Kingdom Music in CD, vinile e digitale; ulteriori dettagli verranno rivelati presto. Tieni solo a mente che OF THE MUSES è Arte catartica, eclettica ed emotiva!
