When the fictional guy is a really obnoxious and irredeemable asshole but is also really soft and clingy with the person he trusts. But he also has a lot of trouble expressing and giving affection to his significant other cause it's been forever since he's had any affection from anyone else. Especially if it's some kind of soft and vulnerable affection like cuddles.

*sighs dreamily*

I think about this sometimes but I personally love that Horikoshi took the Yandere trope, split it in two, and gave one half to Izuku and Himiko.

Like it’s so fascinating how you can just SEE how purposeful Himiko was as a character in hindsight standing next to him.

Himiko is a really interesting subversion of her trope for two reasons:

She hurts people because she loves them, not for isolation or destruction of the competition (gore/blood is love to her, not necessarily a means to love someone)

She’s not possessive. Like at all.

I’ve seen that hc a few times and it always bothers me. Ochako is for sure a possessive character (we saw that with Hatsume around Izuku way back at the sports festival arc), but Himiko? Really?

You mean the girl who had a crush on a boy AND the girl who also had a crush on the same boy? Her?

You mean the girl who doesn’t hurt people who love who she loves, rather actively encouraging it in the first place? That one? Really?

Like it’s such an integral part to her subversion too. It’s what makes her such a weird and fascinating character. Possessiveness is supposed to be whats ugly about love itself, yet her love remains ugly without it. She is ugly because the fundamental ways in which she sees and feels about the world are considered “wrong”, “dangerous”, and “deviant”.

But Izuku… ohhhh Izuku…

He holds this trait like a badge melted to his skin. My man cannot escape these allegations. It’s to the point where it’s honestly a fundamental to his narrative. Izuku does not act nor feel the same without it.

Izuku holds a cutesy nickname that literally every other childhood friend of Katsuki’s has long left behind, saying his real name instead (this is honestly why I’m also uninterested in a scene where Izuku calls him “Katsuki” instead of “Kacchan”, Katsuki doesn’t represent the same things the name Izuku does, imo at least), izuku “give him back to me” midoriya, holds his dead body to his chest on a cover, freaked out on someone either hurting/offending Kacchan.. 3 times(?), keeping big boy ofa secrets…. The list goes on.

So it’s this main reason that I think their characters are just so. Fucking. Intertwined. I’m glad this has become a more common interpretation because there’s just so much that aligns between them.

Both of them call their “special people” with -chan endings, both by their first names, both deemed deviants/irrelevant by society. It’s no wonder Ochako fell in love with Izuku, just like she did toga, they’re fucking freaks. They’re interesting. They’re weird. They’re overly friendly and socially inept and a little beaten down by the world yet have too much passion to stay on the ground. They’re envious of the ones they love (Ochako of her freedom to be a normal girl, Katsuki for his raw power and harnessed skill), and I guess I just wanted to make this post because I adore how it’s all done.

I LOVE how the yandere trope is used as societal commentary here. Not necessarily as a way to make the main love interest jealous and feel she must protect the main character, nor for some kinky reason surrounding her character, but because the trope is built off of real, ugly feelings that can and do happen. That love can and is considered truly beautiful in all its forms, especially those of queer people.

So I especially love it because it isn’t just limited to Himiko, but Izuku as well. He may never hurt the ones he loves, but he would hurt for them.

A perfect narrative foil on queer and deviant forms of love. Big fan Horikoshi.

The softest Harringrove brain worm that’s ever invaded my head where Billy is the sole guardian of his little step-sister Max. (very little, like 6 years old little. And Billy is 25ish, so it’s a big enough age gap where everyone naturally assumes he’s just a single dad.) And Steve is the host of a dorky yet successful kids tv show called Mr H’s Treehouse (think Mr. Rogers) that Max is OBSESSED with.

She makes Billy watch it with her every single evening, like clockwork. Now, Billy would never admit this, not even with a fucking gun to his head—but he kind of starts to look forward to watching it with her. But it isn’t his fault! The host is, pardon his French, fucking hot as shit.

So every night he gets home from work, drops whatever take-out garbage he got for them onto their TV dinner trays, and parks himself in front of the idiot box while Mr. H from Mr. H’s Treehouse comes on and teaches him and Max about the power of friendship and sharing and eating vegetables or whatever the hell else he’s on about that week. It’s stupid, but it kind of becomes cathartic. Like Billy can just shut his brain off and stuff his face and watch the bright colors and listen to the gentle music and let the stresses of his life fade away—at least for that half-hour anyway. The fact that Mr. H has an ass Billy could bounce a quarter off of… well, it doesn’t hurt.

But what happens when there’s a meet and greet/Story-Time being hosted at Max’s elementary school? Well, Billy’s not a complete douchebag, so of course he has to take her! It has nothing to do with the fact that he also maybe wants to meet this tv host who’s all soft sweaters and pretty brown eyes that Billy’s maybe been fantasizing about for the past year and a half. That’s not it! He’s here for his nerdy little twerp step-sister, nothing more.

(Spoiler, it’s something more.)

LMK!Monkey Smiling Headcanons

i have so much to update on my blogs 😔 in the meantime have monkey headcanons

Wukong no longer sees smiling as aggressive due to prolonged contact with humans. As a result, neither does most of Flower Fruit Mountain/Huaguoshan. He and most of the mountain only consider it aggressive depending on the context (ex. some of the older monkeys may "smile" at each other aggressively).

I think Wukong actually really likes making his human/non-monkey partner smile/laugh because he knows it's different for humans (granted, he does understand smiling can be complicated).

Macaque, however, DOES consider it aggressive. I heavily headcanon him as autistic so I am thinking he never understood when the mountain starting leaning into more human customs (this is a form of him not understanding social cues in my head).

This doesn't really change if Macaque has a human/non-monkey spouse. In the beginning of the relationship it can start a lot of fights if you smile in his direction 💀 eventually he WILL learn that he doesn't immediately have to go into fight mode, but he'll also super appreciate if you find other methods to express happiness w him :3

I also think he takes great care to never snarl/smile/show his fangs at his partner. Ever. The only exception might be if you're curious and ask to see them, but even then it can make him pretty uneasy. He'll probably do some sort of placating/submissive gesture during to further reassure he's not being aggressive.

Macaque IS an asshole, which is part of why he gets irked over smiling/bared teeth, but I think most of the time it has more to do with his trauma and his struggle to distinguish between real threats and miscommunications. He'll get there.

because of their differing opinions, MK is confused on how to act once he gets his monkey form. Macaque trains him more "traditionally" (with an emphasis on grooming, hierarchy, respect, etc.) while Wukong is more "modern" and easy-going. This also means Wukong and Macaque have gotten into some gnarly fights because Macaque has assumed MK was trying to be threatening/aggressive.

After this, MK picks up smiling when nervous/covering his mouth when smiling.

i like thinking about how all the versions of frank i know are so gentle with civilians in a certain way. its always "it was my pleasure", "youre safe im not going to hurt you" and "just stay still youre fine" while hes defusing an actual bomb. its always we cant shoot at the strip club because the workers are going to get injured and we cant have that above most else. the punisher is big and scary and kills people without a second thought but if you didnt ask to be there and are just a regular guy wrapped up in situations way beyond you he is also so gentle and its driving me insane

thinking about how much it probably meant to faramir when he let frodo and sam go knowing his life would be forfeit and sam told him "captain faramir, you've shown your quality sir; the very highest."

Izzy Hands is a trigger-warning in himself:

A devious, (internalized) homophobic, simping, napoleon-complexed lil shitweasel who is also a broken, battered, silver-fox/unicorn worthy of love and redemption.

The duality of man. Or whatever.

My Stand In Episode 2 Thoughts

I thought maybe Tong somehow didn’t know about Ming’s giant crush on him, but this man was letting him feed him by hand??? So no, he’s def aware and encouraging it while whole ass dating Ming’s sister and excuse me. And Ming being all “how dare you say I like Tong, that’s my sister’s boyfriend!” Like he wasn’t out here hand feeding that man. Both these men are sick. lol

Sol pissed me off with not wanting to let Ming bring Joe inside. I get he doesn't know him, but there’s a dude wearing Joe’s house clothes in his house, that’s clearly his man, even if it’s not acknowledged, so maybe don’t be possessive over a dude who isn’t yours. Joe just keeps having shitty men in their feelings flock to him, doesn’t he.

It’s taking me out that Sol’s an idol in Korea, so obviously he has that red hair. I wanna see this young man have all the colors of the wind in his hair by the show’s end. Really hammer it home.

Ming really is just such a bitch. He had Joe sleep on the ground in his own house and then sat there pissily staring at him until he woke up. I award him five points for sheer bitchery and audacity. I deduct 15 points for hurting Joe’s feelings and making me see his sad face when all Joe did was some lighthearted teasing. 

Joe just needs to run away fast and run away far. There’s other cute dick out there. Rise up out of those trenches brother. This is not an Early November song, I don’t wanna hear you sad.
