#i haven't been keeping up with the manga cause it was stressing me out and my heart fucking DROPPED seeing bnha trending

[helpimstuckinafandom]

Horikoshi I just wanna talk-

[pomefioredove]

Hiii!! Could you possibly do headcanons of overblot boys + adeuce with a s/o who likes to collect figures or like manga or something along those lines? Also I love your writing you’re awesome sauce. feel free to delete or ignore if you don’t wanna do it!! I understand :3

<3<3 ofc

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ collector! reader

type of post: headcanons characters: riddle, ace, deuce, leona, azul, jamil, vil, idia, malleus additional info: romantic or platonic, reader is gender neutral, reader is yuu

looking at... [vaguely gestures to Heartslabyul] all that, I can't imagine Riddle has any grounds to complain about knick-knacks or clutter. he literally lives in a minimalist's worst nightmare. he also gives the impression of a collector of odd trinkets. like stamps or antique tea cups. grandma vibes. probably gets you a nice display cabinet for your things

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Ace is a sixteen year old boy who balls and thinks of himself as a lady's man. and, I mean, he loves you, but you can tell what he's about to say before he even opens his mouth. weeeeeeb... then he saves up all year just to gift you that one ridiculously priced figure for your birthday. like I said, he loves you, he just has a very... defensive temperament

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

I feel like Deuce is a really good listener (or, at least, he knows how to be quiet when you're talking, unlike a certain other Heartslabyul first year), even if he doesn't quite get it. besides maybe Jack, he's the most willing to watch your favorite shows with you, read your mangas together, hear about each individual trinket you own... even if he still doesn't understand. it makes you happy <3

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Leona is more of a meh guy. "what do you want, a cookie?" is probably in his top ten favorite expressions. things to say when he doesn't care about something. and. listen. he cares about you, he does, but he's not really the type to pretend. he'll let you talk about your collection, though. as long as you're happy with him, you won't seek out Idia and become completely intolerable (his words, not mine!)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Azul is having flashbacks to all the junk that Jade and Floyd hoard. but, hey: at least your collection isn't of broken toasters or wild mushrooms. he can respect the pride you take in your hobbies, and the care you... wait, how much does all this cost?

...yeah. okay, he understands. definitely not toasters or mushrooms. your room is practically a museum

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

[Jamil voice] "once you're done playing with your toys will you come help me clean up the lounge"

no, he doesn't get it. you haven't said how much all of this costs because you think he might have a heart attack if he saw the numbers, and you keep your belongings tidy enough for him not to stress. so he doesn't complain

(and also because he knows they mean a great deal to you)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

[Vil voice] "once you're done playing with your toys will you clean up the lounge" lol

he's not exactly jumping for joy when you spend all your allowance on plastic merchandise and picture books. I mean, he's already had to lend you his winter coat, and there was that week you had to stay at Pomefiore because the water at Ramshackle was out... but making purchases seems to make you happy, so he begrudgingly accepts it

there are worse hobbies to have, after all. [side-eyeing Rook]

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

I don't even want to write Idia's part. I'm afraid he'll materialize in my room and start fangirling over this (rip idia shroud you would have loved x readers)

but seriously, he's been recommending you his favorite mangas and animes and games. he probably buys you authentic figures that are thousands of thaumarks on a whim 'cause you kinda like the character. very sweet. very thoughtful. when should I book your wedding. etc

*ੈ✩‧₊˚

you'd think that Malleus would be astonished? WRONG this guy lives with Lilia "hip with the kids" Vanrouge. who is not only a hoarder, but someone who most certainly has a shelf of manga and figures from his favorite games somewhere in the cavernous hole he calls a room. Malleus has probably gotten him one for his birthday (after the 5 hours it took for him to figure out how to buy things online). so like. it's no big deal to him. if you ever mention wanting new manga or figures or... anything... he will give you twice the amount of thaumarks necessary. he's like that

[lnkedmyheart]

Do you have any opinions on Sigma?

The thing with me and passive characters is that I usually struggle to really connect to them in mediums like mangas. I think I'd have more thoughts on him if Asagiri gave us a Sigma centric light novel.

I think he's interesting as a concept and has a lot of potential. But to me he is more or less average. We are given some details on him as a character. But its really not much to go on for proper characterization cause what we know about his personality is not much.

He is supposed to echo Atsushi. From Dazai giving them both a shot at life through some mild manipulation and general good intent to them starting to see him as a good person cause he keeps saving their life and giving them the assurance they need while faking his entire personality. However unlike atsushi who has had a lot of time to develop and a varity of scenarios that show us what kind of a person he is Sigma has mostly been stuck in an extended situation that has only shown us the guy being stressed out. And it doesnt do much for me personally.

I do have a minor issue with the guy and its that even when he is an active participant and does something in meursault its because Fyodor allowed him to. Dazai went "i'll leave the rest to you" and Sigma failed at being proactive. Sigma brought a gun to a knife fight and still lost, bro could have easily killed Fyodor because his ability works on dead people and not have had to worry about Fyodor's ability and he didnt take him out despite being able to in that moment and the only reason he got the data was because Fyodor was too full of hubris and gave it to him willingly. And now he's in a coma of some sort. And i get it. I just mentioned suspension or disbelief in media for plot reasons but this scene actively annoyed me because once again Sigma didnt really do anything himself. Like the guy is coasting by on sheer luck and other people saving his ass right now. Idk I need more time with him and need to see him actually do something.

He is so under developed rn that a majority of his personality in fanon is just projection and headcanons. We haven't seen him as anything but stressed for the most part. But Asagiri likes him and so I have my fingers crossed that he gets a light novel. He is so interesting conceptually. I really wanna open him up but I dont have the raw material just yet.

Kinda an important notice ...

Hey y'all! I haven't been on here much for the past several months, not sure if you even remember me lol

But yeah, if you do, I've got some things to say...

You don't have to read all of this, there is a TLDR at the end but I just want to use my blog to vent.

Sooo ... In the last few months, my health was slowly getting worse and worse. It started with a blister-like rash on my hands. At that time, I was working in the lab wearing gloves. So I thought maybe it was due to the friction of the gloves on my skin when opening bottles (I had to open a lot of bottles which were under high pressure).

After a while, I became more and more listless, I had no motivation to do the things I used to love like cooking or writing theories. I didn't feel like keeping up with any manga etc.

And then pain started to set in. At the beginning, it was only in the morning. Pain in my joints of my hands. But I ignored it because I had this pain yearly and my doctor always said, "It's probably nothing. You're too young." He was referring to me being too young for rheumatic problems.

I noticed how I started to have problems with concentrating. I started to forget things easily. I started to struggle with expressing myself or with remembering what I was gonna say or do. Much more than usually.

The pain didn't stop with my hands. It spread into my arm muscles and my legs and hips slowly became more and more stiff. It was getting harder for me to stand up.

I still ignored it because "I had no time". I was stressed because of my studies. I had to work on my bachelor thesis and exams. And since my ability to focus declined, I was getting more stressed because I wasn't able to study. I spent days scrolling on social media without taking in any information. With each day not studying, I had even "less time". So I told myself that I will deal with this pain after my exams.

Yeah, I know, stupid right?

The pain peaked after my exams. My whole body was in pain. I was unable to get up from my bed. Every little wiggle of my finger hurt. Every attempt to bend my knees shot me to hell.

I know, it sounds like I'm exaggerating. And maybe I am. But at that moment, I genuinely felt like I would die if I moved.

And then .. it got better!!

The pain lessened. I was able to move. I was overjoyed. I thought I had juvenile arthritis (simply said chronic joint pain due to inflammation). But if my symptoms are getting better without treatment, it's a good sign, right? Right????

Yeahhhh, nope. All the pain suddenly came back two weeks after it was getting better.

And so cold. I was so cold everyday.

So yeah, I spent the last month or more getting sent from one doctor to another. Taking blood and urine tests here and there. Going to the emergency. Taking x-rays and body scans. More blood tests. Trying to figure out what was wrong with my body.

The first time one of the doctors told me something about the test results was on March the 1st, after my first day of work at my internship.

"You have an autoimmune disease."

Yeah, I suspected that.

"It might be Lupus erythematodes."

...

A vague memory of a celebrity announcing they had Lupus surfaced.

Lupus ... a wolf, my latin brain thought.

Of course, I googled it.

"95% of the people with this disease survive the first 5 years. 85% survive the first 10 years."

What about 20 years?? Does everyone die off after the first 10 years???

More google searches.

"Most patients have an almost normal life span."

Relief.

"As long as it doesn't attack your organs."

Panic.

At that time, I had lower back pain for two weeks. Right where the kidneys are. Additionally, I felt a weird pain a little bit above my left chest and in my stomach area.

I might wanna explain more what systemic Lupus erythematodes is. But it's complicated because every patient can have different symptoms and I'm still learning about this disease.

But what it basically does is inflame and cause pain to your organs. Most commonly it affects your joints and skin. If your internal organs are affected, it gets complicated. Even deadly, if it is your kidneys. It can basically inflame any part of your body that's why the symptoms are so versatile.

Often the inflammation occurs in "batches". Inbetween these flare ups of pain, you might have no symptoms at all. In my case, I still have morning stiffness and pain in my hand joints. I also don't have strength in my hands.

What causes these flare ups? UV-light, stress, infections can be very dangerous and probably a few more things I forgot.

But most importantly, most of the patients have a limited "energy reserve". Every, and I mean literally e v e r y activity requires a lot of energy. Normally, I can't remove my blankets on my own because they feel too heavy. So my mom wakes up every morning to help me get up and wear socks.

The thing is, if I overuse my energy, I won't pass out but rather draw from tomorrow's energy reserve. But what happens in the next few days is another flare up of pain. So I have to be very careful.

Fast forward to last week, I finally got the official diagnosis.

Last July, I was in Rome, walking kilometres and climbing stairs up and down the whole day. No big issues except for tired feet.

Now, I'm already exhausted before I even leave the house for work.

It hurts. It hurts me and it hurts my family to see me like this. My family is super supportive. They do so much for me like washing my feet, massaging me etc. All the things that seemed so easily done, suddenly required so much energy. Especially my mom helps me a lot. And I feel so bad because she's not getting younger and I know she has health issues too. I know she's pushing herself.

Most of my friends and relatives keep their distance because they don't want to upset me. But I actually just want one shoulder to cry on. Because I don't want to cry in front of my mom any more. I know it hurts her. So so much.

So yeah, I wanted to tell y'all why I was absent and I will continue to be so. I want to focus on my health and try implementing life style habits that lessen the pain. Not sure when and if I'm coming back.

I've read that for some women it got better with age, so let's hope I'm one of them. I will start medication soon, so let's hope that it will help me and not affect me negatively. Let's hope I will regain the strength to do the things I used to love.

And most importantly, I hope my family stays alright.

Disclaimer: I'm sorry, if I got any medical facts wrong. As I said, I'm still learning about it and there is so much info. I'd be happy if you could correct me. Thanks.

TLDR;

My health declined over the last months. I've been diagnosed with a very rare autoimmune disease. Since I was in a lot of pain, I wasn't online much and I will continue not to be. I want to focus on my health. Currently, there is no cure but maybe I can lessen the symptoms by implementing healthy habits.

TLDR END;

If you read all of this, thank you so so much. It means a lot to me that you gave me some of your time to listen to me <3 but I totally understand if you didn't!!

I'm very grateful to have found this community. The tumblr side of bsd has helped me so much during this pandemic. I'm very thankful for the people I met on here last year. I really hope that life has good things for you and that you stay healthy. I'm sending much love to y'all.

Especially my mutuals. I'm sorry that I haven't interacted with y'all for such a long time. But you really made my last year so much better and I'm grateful for that. I hope you guys are alright.

@n1kolaiz @right-on-the-money @samsa19 @banunuisthebest @elk208 @everyonesfavoritebastard @chazukekani @atalina-falling @emmacifer @pompompurin1028 @agni-skies @justanotherdamnedweeb @boredotaku567 @tunamayuuu

I feel like I'm missing one or two people. I'm really sorry if I forgot you. My memory has gotten worse.

Take care everyone! Maybe I will scroll through my tumblr once in a while and interact with your posts. But yeah, please stay safe!

Domino Chapter Six

The domino effect. How one thing happening can cause a chain reaction. How were you supposed to know a call home made by your cousin would be the tipping domino that sets off the next several years of your life?

A/N: Sorry for the short chapter today guys. Been busy and don't have a whole lot of time to sit and write. Will have a longer one sunday I promise!

WARNINGS: This is not a XReader type story. There will be OCs. Rindou X OC, Ran X OC. Mentions of various Bonten things and events that have only happened in the manga. If you haven't read the manga, and don't anything to be spoiled...DO NOT READ THEN!

MASTER LIST

< Previous Next>

Without a smirk or smug smile or any sign that this was a breathing human being, Mikey turned and walked towards the stairs before he went up them and disappeared. Everyone was silent, watching even long after he had vanished behind the second floor railing. My fists clenched and unclenched over and over at my side, my jaw tense and grinding my teeth.

"Kira," Anaiya's hesitant voice rang behind me, Ran still blocking her body with his. I could feel the tension in the room seeping into my skin.

Slapping an obviously fake grin I turned towards her. "Don't worry 'bout it, Iya. It's fine." I said as cheery as I could. We were grown women, but I still felt the need to keep Anaiya from worrying or stressing over me.

"But-"

"Welcome to the ranks." Ran cut her off, seeing the desperation in my eyes. I needed her to believe I was ok. I needed Anaiya to think everything was fine and just handle it how I needed to.

I nodded in appreciation. I took a deep breath before clapping my hands together and forcing myself to adapt to my new situation. Freaking out and letting my anxiety run free wasn't going to get me anywhere let alone help me. Staying calm and remembering all the relaxing thoughts I taught myself on my travels was my best bet.

"I get one of those fancy pants offices now right?" I cheered, turning to Kokonoi who was now standing in the front of a hallway, his mouth hanging open.

He looked at me and tried to compose himself. "Uh, yes. You'll have to wait until tomorrow. I'll order some furniture for it." He turned on his heels and scurried off to his office probably to hide from everyone.

"Boo! I don't like waiting." I mocked a pout. I turned back to face Iya and smiled brightly at her-this time a little more believably. "How's about that lunch now?"

Anaiya had taken Ran, Rindou, and myself to a pretty extravagant rooftop restaurant. Large sushi boats were placed on the table along with delicious looking side vegetables. Anaiya had ordered herself a vodka cranberry and the Haitani brothers both ordered scotch dry.

"Kira, would you like a Vodka Cran?" Ran offered with a lazy smile, the waitress looking at me expectantly.

Smiling to the young girl I said, "Tequila and Cranberry please."

"Tequila? It's a little early to get that wild." Rindou commented sarcastically.

Rolling my eyes I let Anaiya answer for me. "She can't have vodka. It makes Kira extremely aggressive." She stated matter-of-factly.

"Isn't she already?" Rindou muttered under his breath.

Cutting my eyes to him I say, "Magic purple marker say what?"

"What?" He snapped, a second later realizing what he fell for. "Bitch." He barked out.

Smugly I shrugged my shoulders and picked up a piece of Squid Nigirizushi. "At least I'm not a magic purple marker."

"I like her." Ran smirked, looking over to Anaiya joyfully.

Anaiya chuckled and said, "She's definitely a handful."

Arching a brow I looked across the table at her as the waitress returned with out drinks. "Me? Anaiya, let's not who blew up a school microwave in second year of high school."

Ran, who had tried to take a sip of his scotch, choked and amusingly looked over to his fiancé. "You what?"

Red in the face from embarrassment, my cousin quickly turned to Ran to explain. "I didn't do it on purpose!" I didn't know what she was so frantic about explaining something so minor. Her fiancé was a hitman for the most infamous Yakuza.

"No, she just didn't want to throw her chip bags away so she slid them in behind Toshi Sensei's microwave until one day when it just went Pop!" I snickered at the memory. No one ever figured out who did it, but the utter look of terror on Anaiya's face that day still made me laugh. She had panicked about the school figuring out it was her for weeks after.

"Why didn't you just throw the chip bags away?" Rindou inquired, completely confused.

Grinning I said, "That's the fun part. She doesn't know. The trash can was right next to the microwave."

"The trash was under the microwave table, and I didn't want to bend down to throw them away." She pouted, throwing me adorable little pissed off glares. "And if we're throwing shade then let's talk about when Kira snuck out of school just to sneak into Chifuyu's school."

"Huh?" Ran and Rindou both looked at me with utter confusion, and to their defense it did sound odd.

"Inarizanki was so boring. And that one Miya twin, what was his name? The one we called pisshead?"

"Atsumu?"

"Yeah! Atsumu was so annoying all the time. And besides, nearly giving Chifuyu a heart attack and pissing him off was alway so fun." I chuckled and relaxed back in my chair, sipping my drink.

"Miya Atsumu?" Rindou gawked, his eyes wide while Ran looked shocked.

Arching a brow I said, "Yes. Pisshead. He was so damned annoying. He use to run around and talk about how great he was going to be in the major volleyball league." I rolled my eyes at the memory. "But his brother was sweet. Osamu I think. He and Suna Rintaro were always so calm compared to his moronic brother."

"Suna Rintaro?" Rindou repeated me again.

"Yes! Suna Rintaro and Atsumu and Osamu Miya. They were in my class. Are you going to keep repeating me?" I snapped, annoyed. I did not like being parroted.

"Suna Rintaro is the middle blocker for the EJP Raijin and Miya Atsumu is the starting setter for the MSBY Black Jackals." Ran took a gulp of his scotch and then said. "There some of the most famous players in the major league right now."

Anaiya looked start struck, like she had just realized she had known royalty. Of course, she was about to marry a very infamous man, but who was I to make that clear to her. I, however, was not all that awstruck.

"I know. I've run into both them and some other guys while out on the road." I popped another piece of sushi into my mouth and shrugged. "That kid from Nekoma, the awkward one, I saw him back in Florida. Said he was 'vlogging around the world for the summer'."

"You saw Kenma? Wow, small world." Anaiya chirped, then her face went smug as she said, "You ask about his friend? The one you had that major crush on?"

"I did not have a crush on Kuroo!" I snapped back, I could feel the blush spreading across my face.

Smugly she said, "He's the only name you remember."

"Well you liked that annoying pretty boy from Aoba Johsai! You saw him what? Two times in the nationals and claimed you were 'in love'." I pointed out, smirking when he face turned red.

"You girls liked volleyball." Ran said amusingly watching us go back and forth as we aired out more and more of our past hilariously.

"Kira liked that kid with the weirdly frosted tips from Fukurodani!" She pointed a finger at me like we were kids in trouble again. "Bokuto something or other!"

"Bokuto Kotaro?" Rindou gawked.

Rolling my eyes I retorted, "Well at least I wasn't obsessed with that lizard kid from Shiratorizawa. Satori Tendo, boy was that kid off."

"Well what about your fixation with Karasuno's couch our third year?" She glared.

"Doesn't compare to you frothing over the germophobic Kiyoomi Sakusa from Itachiyama." I shot back smugly.

"How many famous volleyball players do the two of you know!" Rindou snapped, cutting mine and Anaiya's arguement short.

I raised a brow at him amusingly before uttering, "Does the big and bad Haitani Rindou of Roppongi fan girl over some volleyball players?"

He glared and growled out, "Bitch."

Ran watched delightedly as Rindou and I held eye contact. Rindou glaring and myself amused and taunting. Ran looked to Anaiya and said jokingly, "I think they're in love."

[mesozoic-system]

Bakugou Katsuki is not as bad as he seems.

Okay, fine. That's a lie. Bakugou is a loud and obnoxious asshole with little to no character development and will snap at anyone who breathes on him the wrong way.

Now that that's out of the way, let's move on to why he's like that.

You all know what PTSD is, yeah? If not, it stands for "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder". It's something that causes panic attacks, unnecessary aggression, trust issues, nightmares, anxiety, depression, and more. People will develop it after a traumatic experience. It takes years of therapy to recover... actually, most people never recover from it.

Fun fact: Katsuki canonically has PTSD. It's confirmed, and you know what? After everything he's been through, it's not much of a surprise. He's been through one tragedy after another and never seems to get a break.

When we first met Bakugou Mitsuki (Katsuki's mother) in chapter #96, we instantly realized how aggressive she was. I mean come on! She talked smack right in front of him and his teachers- in front of All Might who she knew her son was very fond of. Katsuki may be irritable, but to have your own mother backhand you in front of your own role model is a little much.

Later on in chapter #165 during the Provisual License Exams, we get a little more information that only points towards more abuse- and this time it's not so verbal.

Most people paid no real attention nor gave it a second thought in these panels, but remember when Katsuki suggested to use violence against the kids? Of course, you'd look at it and wave it off as "normal Bakugou behavior", but what he says next took me by surprise:

That's right. He was raised that way.

Which means either Mitsuki or Masaru (or both) had struck him in some way multiple times as he was growing up, and I doubt it was Masaru.

"Spoiled" my ass. He might have a strong quirk, but people don't turn into little monsters just by being praised. It'll definely boost his confidence, but not dramatically. This could also explain his aggression toward Midoriya. He realized how helpless he was and had power over someone else for once. But that's just a theory.

Okay, let's fast forward a bit. He's finishing up his third year of Middle School and is preparing for the UA entrance exams. He's pushed away his childhood friend to follow his own dreams and tells him to jump off the roof.

Literally.

And then he walks out the door only to regret it much, much, muuuch later in the series- y'know. The "character development" I was talking about.

Next time we see him though, he gets what he deserves.

One panel he's tramping through an alley with his friends, and the next, he's being swallowed alive by the most perverted-looking slime monster I've ever laid my eyes on.

While Izuku's dreams are being crushed by his own hero, Katsuki is fighting for his life in the middle of town. He's struggling, but all he could do was look back at all the dozens of fearful eyes...

Right there. Right now. Look at him:

He's terrified. He's humiliated and afraid and hurt and despite all of the heroes that were there, none of them had even attempted to save him.

And this is where it really starts. This is where it all begins. Next thing we know, Izuku's running straight for him... The boy Katsuki's bullied almost all of his life is risking his own in order to save him.

You know the story from there; All Might trains Izuku to withhold his power, they get accepted into UA, and then comes the Sports Festival.

Katsuki's already made up his mind: he's gonna win. He's willing to give everything he has to show the country what he's made of, and this may be his only chance to make up for the mishap several months ago. And Monoma, being a professional at making things worse by opening his mouth, rubs salt in the wound.

It was pretty easy to predict Katsuki's reaction: pissed off and more than ready to prove him wrong. He does, but it cost him his "first place" during the Calvary Battle. But that's okay 'cuz it's not over yet!

Welcome to the next and last stage of the festival: The Battle Tournament, where all the kids get to beat the shit out of each other until only one remains.

Turns out, Katsuki does win. It was a foolproof plan: get Todoroki to go all out on him so he can make a final impression before the end of the day. But it was obvious that Shouto was still unsure of himself, so Katsuki did what he did best:

He had to piss him off.

But instead of getting angry and bursting into flames like he had planned, Shouto threw away the battle at the last second, and everything Katsuki had worked for with it.

No shit he's gonna be upset! He worked his ass off to get where he was, and the whole point was to leave himself a footprint! His entire life had been dedicated to that moment, and it faded away right in front of him.

Midnight put him to sleep and he woke up and threw a temper tantrum.

Now this is was UA did wrong:

Why would you do that?! They were all aware of what happened to him only a few months ago, he obviously hasn't properly recovered from it, and they restrain him in front of thousands of people. They cover his mouth and gag him, lock his hands in a tiny metal box and expect him not to go insane. Helloooo?! Wake up! He's just a kid!

Several months go by and now it's time for camp. Katsuki is tired. They all are. It's been a long day of training and training and training, and suddenly villains come out of nowhere, and nobody is prepared. And who shows up? The League of Villains, and they're after certain students...

Tokoyami escapes safely, but Katsuki isn't so lucky.

Just think about that for a second. When we see Shigaraki holding a picture of him, it's the one where UA tied him up. He knows what this child has gone through and he pities him. To be honest, I think the LoV treated him much better than anyone ever has (except maybe Kirishima). They're hesitant, but they treat him with kindness. They didn't just want him for his quirk. They saw what the heroes did to him and wanted to help him get the revenge he deserved.

But when All Might showed up (more like "burst through the wall like the Cool Aid man"), Katsuki is instantly teleported in the strangest way possible... and the most traumatizing.

He chokes out this weird slime-like substance that devours him within seconds. Thankfully it only last that long, but then again, the Sludge Incident, remember?

Yeah, bet that brings back some memories.

But what must have hurt him the most was All Might's downfall and early retirement. He said it himself:

After several chapters, he finally burst. He's been holding all the pain inside of him until it bubbled over and he couldn't take it anymore. So he went to the only person he could- the person he hated and yet trusted the most.

Maybe the Class 1A concert helped him in a way. It seemed like it brought him down and maybe even relaxed him a little. And something incredible happens. Something we haven't seen from him at all until now...

(From here, I'll try to keep it short to avoid as many manga spoilers as I can. That and I'm tired...)

He began to change; started to support Izuku... in his own twisted way, of course. As chapters went by, he started to open up little by little. He admitted what he had done to Izuku in middle school to All Might, which had brought him some peace of mind. It wasn't quite the apology we had hoped for, but I guess it'll do.

And during the war, he made the greatest sacrifice, finally unlocking his quirk's full potential. Despite being unable to move, he used his quirk to throw himself in front of Izuku without thinking, taking a blow to his stomach. To his stomach.

He was impaled.

Holy shit.

Last time someone had been impaled was Nighteye, and he died from his wounds.

But Katsuki somehow managed to survive... And woke up ready to beat Izuku's ass if he didn't wake up.

Anyway, that's all I have to say (so far). However, I'm excited for Season 5 of the anime series! Can't wait to see our new story animated! I mean, I've been watching the episodes as they come out, but still.

Completely understand why you want to stop translating, thank you for all that you've done (I'm also a fan of your fics as a fellow GiyuShino shipper)! Saw a while ago that you were assigned an amazing work project since you speak Japanese and I hope that's going well! If you ever decide to translate again, it'll be much appreciated and I hope that people would understand the conditions that you lay out, if you ever decide to translate again.

Look, I only have one wish for each of my translation posts with images:

DON'T REPOST THEM.

Manga companies, as people already know, are now increasing their surveillance on LOT of their stuff, translated or not, more so this applies to Kimetsu no Yaiba since it's famous as fuck. I made all the translation stuff I made for it since my friends actually even paid me to do so, and since they also have been bummed at Viz for not working on Kimetsu no Yaiba content for English speaking people besides the main manga. (Also, besides, Viz's translator for Kimetsu no Yaiba, John Werry, is someone who I and my friends feel is doing lazy work on the manga)

So I made these translations. And as always I warned people to take them with a grain of salt since I'm also an amateur at stuff like this as well.

Then the reblogs and other things keep coming. I really don't like the reblogs but I thought, okay, since this is famous, it's kinda expected.

THEN I GOT TWO DMCAs from Shueisha over Kimetsu no Yaiba stuff in the span of this fucking year. I learned the cause was that due to my posts being reposted on Instagram, they found my Twitter as the source.

I don't wanna stress myself over this any longer, and I already deleted stuff in my Twitter so that can be avoided. I'm keeping my Tumblr stuff here as I haven't received any copystrikes for it yet, but I guess it's just a matter of time. I don't want this blog reported for copystrikes, which is why I want you to treat whatever I post here as an open secret of sorts, a database perhaps. To be honest, again feel free to ignore me, etc etc etc, since I honestly don't need the clout, I just don't want any DMCAs or worse, a lawsuit, since what I'm doing is piracy and I recognize it as such, but I'm doing this with the risks in mind so to spread existing content for the fandom which people don't know due to the language barrier. If people, however, cannot understand the circumstance, I have to stop, not for anyone's sake but for mine, especially that I handle enough stress already and I don't want any possible lawsuits this shit might bring up. Receiving a DMCA is already stressful enough as it is.

::ooc// give us a headcanon that you wanted to post but haven't had a reason to yet OR give us family headcanons!!

gimme gimme headcanon asks | ALWAYS ACCEPTING

Fun fact I’m REAL BAD at going with broad topics like ‘do anything you’d like to do’ because I’m the most indecisive person on this green earth dfjbgdf SO I’M GONNA GO WITH THE LATTER OPTION

I wrote a headcanon post on general family things to do with him a little more than half a year ago so I’ll just… Copy paste it here and add to it a little

as always whenever discussing House Velthomer there’s a WARNING in place because canon material pertaining to the family goes over the topics of abuse, neglect, abandonment, rape, incest, suicide and infidelity. The game is often compared to ga.me of thr.ones; a lot of the same problematic issues are covered in both. Please let me know if I missed anything and need to tag this with anything else dgkfxbsf

Arvis acts like a foil to Sigurd in a lot of different ways, but one of the big ones is basis. Sigurd’s got loads of friends that he’s fiercely loyal to and a warm, loving household with a close relationship with his father and his sister. Arvis got to grow up with an abusive drunkard philanderer for a father, a ( WAY too overly idealised in his head, to the point where Kaga’s notes literally say he has a mother complex ) mother that abandoned him when his father killed himself, and a bastard little half-brother that was the product of his deeply loathed father raping his mother’s favourite maid/the initial trigger for her cheating on her husband with the prince that led to Victor’s suicide that led to the suicide note that led to Cigyun running away in despair and confusion that led to seven year old Arvis getting a duchy dumped into his arms to run and an infant brother to raise and effectively being robbed of any childhood he might’ve had otherwise, and according to the game design notes he took this hard.

                                                    … Understandably, but hard. Arvis pulled in and just never gave back out; where Sigurd went to Belhalla’s military academy and got to meet people and interact with and make friends with his peers, Arvis was a literal little boy stuck with going to the same meetings and dealing with the same responsibilities as every other duke in the realm, and since every other duke is old as heck he only very occasionally got to ever really meet people his age at all. He became cold and just shut people out: everything that happened with his parents put a foul taste in his mouth with people, so he already blocked out most of the population through that, and the game guide goes out of its way to say that he just isn’t attracted to women ( Deirdre is the sole exception, and that’s only because of his Oedipus complex and the fact that she looks so much like dear old mom, which opens up a whole different can of worms on its own ), so in stark contrast to his womanising father he never bothered with courtship. He didn’t have any interest in romance, he didn’t have any friends outside of Aida, and that’s really only because as his confidant and his right hand man she’s basically shadowing him constantly and he has to like her for that to work out, and despite the real, powerful love he felt for his little brother Azel says himself that he’s terrified of him because Arvis is terrifying. Everything he does is ridiculously severe and no-nonsense, and it’s directly because he got saddled with such an absurd amount of responsibility when he was so little. On top of this you’ve got Saias, his illegitimate son by Aida, which throws a whole other slew of drama into the mix because you know that he despised his father and he doesn’t want to be associated with him, and that word getting out of him having a bastard child of his own when his father was known for having a countless number of them because he just went and had affairs wherever he went would just mark open season on comparisons there… Except Saias is canonically 27 in the year Gran 776, which would make him about nine during the time of the massacre at Belhalla near the end of the game’s 1st generation. Arvis is still described as young here, presumably around Sigurd’s age and too young to really have a nearly ten year old child, and canon supplementary material still points out that he simply wasn’t attracted to any women before Deirdre, so that doesn’t really help cement a real concept of family for him. What’s most likely is that it was a mistake a la alcohol on both parties’ fronts, but it’s complicated; no canon ages are given to Arvis outside the manga, which puts him at 25 in the first generation, but that means he would have been around sixteen when Saias was conceived, by a woman that he loved dearly as a friend but not at all in any sexual or romantic light, while he was still trying to raise his then-nine-year-old younger half brother on top of leading Velthomer duchy. Saias was also a product of genealogy’s prequel and thus never actually shows up in game or gets mentioned until Thracia 776, so there’s no way to see what their relationship was canonically like, but regardless the additional stress that came with suddenly knowing you had a child out of wedlock in a very medieval setting and the immediate mental comparisons to his ever-hated father would have been crushing.

It all culminated in him both growing up way too fast and never really growing up at all.

Arvis is very strict, very arrogant and very pragmatic. He’s got a ridiculously overly idealised worldview in his head that says that he can do anything ( and nothing has ever done anything to suggest that he couldn’t; he led a duchy when he was seven, he demanded the respect of the other dukes and got it despite the decades-long gap between them in ages, he leads the royal guard and tends directly to the king, etc. — he’s accomplished plenty ), and since he can do anything, clearly he has to do good things, for the people. If a few innocent people have to be mowed down for the needs of the many then it isn’t a problem at all to him, because in his mind nobody else is capable enough to do what he can do. And he gets away with it!! Kaga’s notes talk about him outlawing slavery and punishing strict and unfair merchants when he first becomes emperor, and the people adore him for it. He wants to be a good guy, and as long as the people think he is and he does things to genuinely help them then he is… In his head.

Except that they, you know, don’t know anything about how he orchestrated the events that culminated in House Chalphy getting unrightfully saddled with high treason.Or how he ( unknowingly at the time, admittedly ) married his sister.Or how he’s a Loptyr blood carrier.That Loptyr blood thing and his actions regarding it play pretty well into his mindset; he never grew up socialising properly or being raised properly, so he just stuck to the idea that if a thing can cause trouble it ought to be hidden so as to avoid punishment, and being Loptyr-blooded definitely helped that along. If anyone knew about it he’d be burnt alive in a witch hunt, so of course he did whatever Manfroy told him to do on threat of blackmail, and, like a child, he justified all the gradually worse and worse things he did in the name of saving his own skin by calling it ‘a sacrifice for the greater good’.

                                                He never grew up emotionally.

At the very root of his character you’ve got a man with very good intentions and very very bad methods of achieving his goals. Would he have ever done what he did if Manfroy wasn’t blackmailing him? No, but that doesn’t matter. What does matter is how he reacted when he was frightened and how he keeps insisting on keeping things hidden from everyone and anyone if he can get away with it. He didn’t tell Deirdre a thing when he found out that his wife, the woman he loved, the mother of their children was actually his sibling, and you can bet he didn’t tell Julia or Julius that they were the products of incest. He didn’t tell them about his Loptyr blood, because he would never tell anyone about that. He didn’t tell her that she’d previously been married to Sigurd because that got in the way of his happy idyllic life. Family is overwhelmingly important to him because he just didn’t really have one as a kid ( or he’d rather have not had one; his father pretty much ruined everything ), but it gave him every issue he has and left him scrambling to justify doing some downright heinous things. If his mother hadn’t abandoned him, or if his father wasn’t, you know, an awful hecking person, or if he’d actually had a friend growing up he might’ve matured enough mentally that by the time the issues of the game really start he would’ve been able to handle things better, but he didn’t. He bottles everything up and keeps secrets that cost people their lives and just sits on them right into the grave.

I haven't read any chapters since Hide's return, and have just been keeping up with spoilers (classes man) but if Ish/ida keeps up with this type of writing, no point in me getting back on track when I've got tests & shit to worry about. (T-g was that one thing to ease my mind out of life, but now it's just causing more stress to see how my fav manga's writing is gradually becoming more poor)

You’re better off avoiding the chapters set in the 24th for the most part; nothing you’re not expecting is really happening; bunch of fights take place and a few people die. Not much bearing on the plot past that. You can pretty much just check tumblr to see what people are saying to have a good enough grasp on whats going on to understand the story if Hide shows up again and you wanna start reading lmao
