#i missed bnha and i missed this girlie here

[audiear]

i need y'all to bare with me .. no icons at the moment , no banners, just vibes.

[cryiling]

thinking about that bkdk edating in middle school trope, except they're amino boyfriends 💀

they meet on an all might amino community. katsuki is one of the community mods, and izuku is the leader of an analysis club on there. izuku's posts were often featured and very popular in the community (he was def a microcelebrity), and katsuki always gave him a ton of amino coins on his posts.

for a challenge he's hosting for his club, izuku makes a huge deep-dive post analyzing all might's rise to fame in his bronze age. this post gets close to 10k likes, and katsuki gifts him 5k amino coins on the post. when izuku sees that number, he freaks out and assumes it must be a mistake since that's a huge number, who in their right mind would give him that much money??

he messages katsuki (who's username is 𝓓𝔂𝓷𝓪𝓶𝓲𝓰𝓱𝓽 ⛓️💥) (LMAOOOOO) and asks if the amount of coins was a mistake + offers to give them back. katsuki tells him that there was no mistake, and that he just really liked izuku's post. izuku is really flattered that this guy liked his analysis so much, and they continue texting back and forth for a while.

they follow each other and put each other in their bios under "bffs," and a month or two after that, they officially become boyfriends. izuku buys amino+ using all the coins katsuki had given him (katsuki keeps spending his allowance to buy more amino coins so he's super rich). they start matching profile themes after that, switching to a new theme every month. they have matching profile frames and chat bubbles and everything, and izuku makes a sticker pack of all might faces to use when texting katsuki (sometimes katsuki uses the stickers too, but only when texting izuku)

everyone on all might amino knows they're dating, since they're both such high-profile people in the community. they become the community's it-couple, and people love commenting on their walls how cute their matching profiles are. katsuki comments under all of izuku's posts praising his analysis, and izuku always replies with a string of all might heart-eye stickers.

6 months into their relationship, izuku tells katsuki he can call him by his real name. up until now, izuku had gone by the nickname "golden" in honor of all might's golden age. when izuku tells katsuki his name, though, he doesn't get a response. the next day, izuku wakes up to find that katsuki's profile has been deleted entirely.

izuku feels like throwing up. he doesn't know what happened to dynamight, if he caused this, what could have caused this. he debates deleting his account too, ashamed and confused and hurt, but ultimately decides against it. he changes his profile theme back to an aesthetic picture set of all might in his iconic golden age pose, and continues posting on all might amino as if nothing happened. he doesn't reach out to new people on amino again.

when izuku gets into ua and his workload drastically increases, he stops finding time to post on amino, eventually deleting the app entirely (his profile stays up, though).

in second year, izuku is sitting in the common room with his friends, somehow having been roped into a conversation about dating. "you've never been in a relationship before, have you, deku-kun?" uraraka asks him.

his friends' eyes all focus on him, and he blushes. "well, i had an online boyfriend in middle school, but i'm not sure if that counts." his friends gape at him, clearly surprised. some other people lingering about in the common area also tune into the conversation. katsuki is one of them.

"really, midoriya-kun?" iida says, doing his best to hide his blatant shock. "i must say, that sounds rather out of character for you!"

"did you guys break up or something?" todoroki asks.

izuku grimaces, remembering what happened. "i told him my real name, and then he deleted his account. i think it was because of my name, but I guess i don't know for sure."

uraraka frowns. "that sucks! he didn't deserve you anyway. what an asshole move." the rest of izuku's friends nod in agreement at that. out of the corner of his eye, izuku sees katsuki get up from his armchair and storm out of the room.

months later, izuku and katsuki finally start dating for real. izuku is so overwhelmed with happiness, and katsuki's eyes light up every time he sees izuku. one night, though, katsuki pulls him aside. "there's something i need to tell you."

izuku frowns in confusion. "what's up?"

katsuki takes a deep breath. "...i'm dynamight."

this does not clear izuku's confusion. "um... yeah, i know what your hero name is."

"no, it's-" katsuki cuts himself off, then starts again. "i was dynamight on amino, too."

izuku feels his heart drop. he's not sure what katsuki is saying, why he's bringing it up. "you... we were... you mean we dated back in middle school?"

katsuki nods, eyes on the floor. he doesn't say anything else.

"why did you..." izuku licks his lips in apprehension. "why did you delete your account?"

katsuki is silent for a moment. "i freaked out when i found out who you were," he finally says. "i mean, you know how i was treating you in real life back then. and we had been texting all that time, and i had been comforting you from the bullying you were going through, only to realize it was me who was- i didn't... i didn't know what to say. and obviously i was really immature at the time and wasn't ready to process my feelings yet. but that whole thing helped me realize my feelings for you, even though i didn't want to accept that at the time.

"but," katsuki continues, clearly on a roll now, "that still doesn't excuse what i did. it was a shitty move. and i know i've apologized for how i bullied you before, but i'm sorry for this, too, izuku. i know i hurt your feelings. i swear i'll be a better boyfriend this time, i promise. uh- only if... if you still want to be together."

izuku can't even think of what to say for a moment, still silently reeling at katsuki's confession. eventually he says, "no, i- i get it. we were both pretty immature at the time, and to be honest i kind of got over it a while ago. but," he smiles, "that apology really means a lot to me. and of course i still want to be with you."

he leans in to kiss katsuki briefly. izuku doesn't think he'll ever get used to that.

katsuki rests his forehead against izuku's, eyes taking in izuku's face. "i swear i'll be an even better boyfriend than dynamight was, golden."

and then they lived happily ever after :>

[tsukiida]

i just scrolled through my blog and i realised i have only two modes: weird pseudo-philosophical rambling. and absolutely unhinged yelling. AND I TELL YOUUUU IT'S SO FUNNYYYYYYY because i spent so long trying to curate my voice and sound like a normal, fun, easy to approach person back when i first made this blog!

then again it's been 3.5 years so i guess my voice changed naturally 🤨 i'm not smart enough for this 😮‍💨

[simply-trash5]

heeeyyyy do you happen to do trigun 🥺👉👈 also BNHA DILFs is such a vibe rn can we have sum yummy hcs pretty please 🤤 i can't decide who so dealers choice 🥴

Heyyyy anon sweetie!

Sorry I am just now replying, I have the flu so miss girl is struggling. I am planning to watch Trigun so I don’t do it yet, but please come back soon and request because I will once I watch it ✨

So BNHA DILFs huh? Yummy HC will be under the line.

First and foremost let’s assume that all of my DILFS are divorced DILFs ✨ single and on the prowl…

Let’s start with Daddy OneforAll:

DILF Izuku is that big hunk of man with the boyish charm that has NO IDEA how sexy he truly is. I have this idea about you meeting him in the park while he plays with his kids. His kid will accidentally throw a ball where you are reading a book in the shade of a tree and here he comes to retrieve it. Curls falling in his face, a blush covering his cheeks when he notices your beauty that makes his freckles pop…he will stammer a little when he asks for your number…

Next thing you know you’re in his apartment. He arranged for a sitter for his kids and he took you on a date; now he has you on his couch kissing sweetly on your neck asking you if all of this is okay. His large scarred fingers are playing at the hem of your shirt ready and willing to all but rip it from your body.

DILF Izuku is patient and wants to take his time worshipping every inch of your body when he has you laid in front of him. He treats you like a goddess came to earth just for him as he watches you come undone from his tongue while you beg for him to fuck you mercilessly.

“Don’t worry sweetheart…I’m going to give you exactly what you want. Gonna take care of you…”

Next up DILF Bakugo:

Now I HC you meet him at some event for his children. I think his daughters are dancers and maybe you are their instructor and when he caught sight of you in your tights—all bets were off. He began to flirt here and there until he finally was bold enough to ask for your number and take you out.

Now you are bent over his bed being absolutely wrecked as he is pounding into you with a handful of your hair. He is all muscle and hard planes bent over you growling into your ear—“that’s right, be a good fucking girl ‘f me”

Now once he’s made sure he’s ruined you for anyone else he’s going to spoil the absolute shit out of you and show up at your studio all the time—even on patrols just to give you kisses or food or little gifts he thinks you’ll love because you’re one of his girls now and

“I’ll always take care of my girls…”

Now on to DILF Kirishima!

You meet DILF Kiri at the gym—at kids gym of course! He’s taking his little one to kids gym for a day of fun but he catches sight of you lifting and decides you need a little…help..on your form. So he leaves his little one in the caring hands of the instructors and comes over to ask if you want some help. You are stunned and maybe a little grumpy (which he finds cute) but sure why not. After a little fun banter you ask him for his number because he’s hot and you haven’t had a good fu—I mean date in a while.

One thing leads to another and Kiri has you in a mating press in his bed rubbing circles on your clit with those large fingers. You’re in shambles over his frame pressing on you and his cock hitting that spot so well and he’s cooing how ‘aww pretty girl you are doing so well don’t cry’ as he is wiping your tears. After you have came more times than you can count and he has marked you with his teeth—he cleans you up in a warm shower together and you lay in his soft bed as he strokes your hair and tells you how beautiful you are. You’re whipped and he’s whipped.

Now you’re going to the gym with him and bringing him lunch to the agency and prancing around in Red Riot merch as his little girlie friend. Good thing you’re getting speared by his dick every day that ends in a “y”. You’ll be moving in soon.

DILF simps come get yalls juice—lemme know if you want any other DILFs ✨❤️

[riicahr]

Throwing my Bnha / Mha OC in here now that she got a new hairstyle. I missed my little cat girlie so so much ♡

Akai's quirk is pretty simple, Crystallokinesis, cuz I like pretty crystals. That's it. Might make her interested in fashion? That may actually be really interesting hmm why not~

[neonscandal]

So, if you asked to write your top 5 fav characters each from JJK & BNHA, what genre will you put them (or you agree that they should be in shounen)....

My asks are getting funnier. 🥰 As always, thanks for asking, lets dig in.

Look at these knuckleheads.

JJK Top 5

I've seen people make really funny observations about how every character in JJK belongs in a different universe but was shoehorned into a horror battle shonen and it delights me to no end. I'm not sure if Gege Akutami actually penned characters that are typical of other anime genres, in a sense, but do believe we all collectively just want our faves to have better odds of survival. At this point, Gege looks at fan polls like a dead pool. I think a story where characters are so obviously not meant to be there would be hilarious if done intentionally, camp even.

Satoru Gojo - The duality of a man who is "The Strongest" in universe while maintaining a girly pop facade to circumvent feeling othered by his strength? Two of my favorite things about Gojo are that he is 1) traumatized 🤪✨ and 2) down astronomically for the days he spent with Suguru Geto. Put this man in a shonen ai, stat.

Nobara Kugisaki and Maki Zenin - Yuri. I feel like I don't need to explain myself here except to say that I put them as one item on the list because I didn't want a list of 6 (I have so many faves). Both iconic, both bad ass. No notes. On the other hand, I would never want to rob Maki of her revenge story so... grain of salt if she stays in universe.

Kento Nanami - I was going to say "this man wants to be in an office sitcom so bad" but, truthfully, would not find the overdone gags and antics palatable. Nanami deserves to rest at an even, dulcet tempo. Traumatized in his youth, he really only returns to jujutsu because office work is unfulfilling but imagine if he were in an office shojo with a found family that he had to provide for? I'm not saying this anime is particularly good but plop him in something cozy like "The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague" but with the home life of "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid". He'll work for the money because it provides for someone else, you know? Let him suffer fools in peace.

Yuji Itadori - Sweet baby angel. Yuji follows the "best of both worlds" phenomenon that we see in other horror anime like Chainsaw Man, Tokyo Ghoul and Attack on Titan wherein he is both human and curse (avoiding further spoilers). But his disposition, his resilience, his pure physical prowess before he ever ate Sukuna's finger? Put this boy in a sports anime and let him thrive. While he'd absolutely body in a fighting sport, what if he was plopped into "Blue Lock"? Sports anime with a dash of horror aesthetic. He'd crush while being as upbeat and hilariously chaotic as Bachira.

Suguru Geto - Baby Girl is one of the most compelling villains we have. I'd say across multiple anime, honestly. He's what happens when a good person, someone who aims to be so morally upright, is faced with the reality that being good actually guarantees you nothing. With someone so unwavering, someone who can't live in shades of grey like Gojo, he can't bend. So he breaks. Honestly, it adds a layer of complexity to the overall story where... can we really, as the viewer, fault him? I feel like he wouldn't have this evolution anywhere else and that there's something to be said as to whether Geto was always doomed by the narrative.

There's never not been a good time to celebrate this frame, honestly.

BNHA Top 5

What's cool about BNHA is, it is authentically a shonen manga/anime while subverting a lot of it's tropes. BUT, we see this really interesting progression in the art that drifts into horror. Not aiming to spoil anything that's to come in season 7 (body horror, it's body horror. Bones better come through) but you see the beginning of it with the change in vigilante Deku's appearance. If Horikoshi felt inclined to do a horror anime post-BNHA, I'd definitely read.

Katsuki Bakugo - Hilariously, Bakugo wants to shonen so bad but is actually so damsel in distress/love interest coded that it almost undermines his role as Midoriya's rival. Almost. Shonen, shonen ai, I don't think he's out of place in either.

Shoto Todoroki - Todoroki's entire personality and character arc being so intrinsically linked to his family is honestly so amusing given the universe. Like, people have real life superhero powers but awful parents are very much still a thing. So it's interesting to expose the complexity of their family dynamics in tandem with the overarching story because, in every way, the Todoroki family are very much members of the Have's of BNHA society but they are still hopelessly miserable. TBH he could be in a slice of life just experiencing and resolving family trauma. "Kotaro Lives Alone" comes to mind.

Shouta Aizawa - I would cast Aizawa in "Life Lessons with Uramichi Oniisan" but he wouldn't have the decency to show up to work without a sleeping bag. I'm not saying it wouldn't look out of place in universe but do better for the kids. Joking. He's honestly both the perfect teacher but also a big ole hypocrite. He condemns Midoriya for his recklessness and self-sacrificing (re: breaking bones to use his quirk) but didn't think twice about hacking off his own leg, logical though it may have been. I know All Might is cast as the quintessential mentor in the shonen dynamic but Aizawa is the real MVP when it comes to mentoring and guiding the Class 1A competently. Shonen all the way.

Izuku Midoriya - I can't say Magical Girl Anime, I can't say Magical Girl anime. I appreciate Midoriya's similarity to eponymous crybaby hero Sailor Moon, tbh. She too was OP and with the fate of the world on her shoulders, just saying. He falls in line with the shonen trope of eating something and powering up (re: JJK, One Piece, Attack on Titan) but has emotional range that is not typically seen in shonen which, honestly I love. He is masculine while still being aggressively expressive (even if he struggles to articulate his feelings). His character and subsequent development is another way that Horikoshi subverts shonen tropes and I can't wait to see how his story wraps up.

Dabi - This crispy piece of bacon is a walking, talking and dancing personification of resolute rage. He is quite literally a vendetta held together by staples. Later chapters especially, he just gets unrelentingly grosser and more unhinged and it's both disgusting and emotional. To be honest, between him and Shigaraki, they are undeniably horror fodder by design. In fact, the reveal that he was a little misogynistic extremist radical was particularly wild of Horikoshi. Like, basically if he hadn't self destructed on that mountain he'd have been some incel plotting violence on the deep dark web? I'm trying to think of what to plop him into (maybe not his charred body but just his general... maliciousness, conviction and extremism). I feel like something horror, psychological with a sprinkle of thriller? What comes to mind is a dark series on my TBR but the name escapes me about a kid getting revenge one by one against sadistic bullies though its unclear where Dabi falls on that spectrum.

[fandomanimatic-tournament]

Fandom song animatic tournament: Bracket 1 Side B

Saint Bernard - Lincoln

"Hung pictures of patron saints up on my wall To remind me that I am a fool Tell me where I came from, what I will always be Just a spoiled little kid who went to Catholic school"

Line Without a Hook - Ricky Montgomery

"Baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you I need you here to stay I broke all my bones that day I found you Crying at the lake Was it something I said to make you feel like you're a burden, oh And if I could take it all back I swear that I would pull you from the tide"

Remember that we're voting on how Iconic they are for ANIMATICS, not for the song itself. In order to make things fair, the tone and mood of the song should not affect how iconic it is (for example, a serious song should not be considered more iconic than a joke song just because it's serious)

Propaganda and animatic links of the songs under the cut:

Saint Bernard - Lincoln

Propaganda:

Its got that sick clapping for smooth frame changes, and it's got all the applications babeyy. Low self esteem hero? Sure! Sympathetic villain? You got it! Morally grey character? Come on in. "Make me love myself so that i might love you" can be about god, friends, a partner, a found family, you name it. "Dont make me a liar cause i swear to god when i said it i thought it was true" can be about anything. Your best friend is evil now? A betrayal?? A disillusioned hero??? "Neither of us will be missed" girlies i am peeing from how good this song is for angst.

"the st. bernard sits at the TOP OF THE DRIVE WAY" makes for a very cool and sexy shot transition. you seen the beau lionett animatic set to this?

tik tok picked up the audio a bit cause the drop into distortion is great, but also the vocals and imagery as they stand are excellent. there's at least four ace attorney ones alone and they all focus on different characters (Blackquill/Sahdmadhi, Klavier, van Zieks, and Edgeworth) and the van Zieks one was posted shortly before the official localization was released. also idk if it's on youtube but there's also one for bass.exe on tumblr which is also excellent

Animatics with the song:

Omori

Five Nights at Freddy's Michael Afton Animatic

3rd Life Impulse Animatic

DSMP Revivebur Animatic

The Owl House

Line Without a Hook - Ricky Montgomery

Propaganda:

This is song genuinely feels me with such raw and powerful emotion; I know it's kind of annoying to say a song "makes you feral", but. this song genuinely makes me feel feral. Pairing up a song that already makes me pretty emotional with ships/blorbos that already make me emotional is such a good mix that leaves me crying on my bedroom floor

Animatics with the song:

Ace Attorney

BNHA Kiribaku Animatic

Omori Hero x Mari Animatic

Adventure Time Bubbline Animatic

The Owl House Lumity

Please be cautious and read the title, description and warning cards on the animatic videos if you decide to watch them. If you've got specific triggers I'd recommend even more caution when watching animatics of fandoms you don't know, since sometimes canon-typical themes don't get warnings.

Please keep in mind that I don't know all the media and fandoms of the animatics provided as examples and I don't have the time (nor the will) to research them all. Don't come into my notes or my ask box complaining about them being included, I will simply block you. If a ship animatic included is about an adult and a minor, do tell me and I'll take it out of the post

ALSO keep in mind that I don't know all the artists submitted; in fact, even if I do know them I do not know absolutely nothing about them as people (I do not have twitter nor tiktok) and I could not POSSIBLY have the time to research ALL of the artists' controversies and what came of them so PLEASE don't flood my inbox with the artists' entire crime list.

[aziraphalesbookkeeper]

Hii :))

You are my favorite writer and I want to let you know how much I love your work 💜💜💜

Really, everything you write is just aghhhh I'm speechless

And I'm very curious what authors (both on AO3 and not) or books or fics you like and maybe recommend?

And what is your inspiration?

If you don't want to respond to these questions, feel free to just ignore this ask, but know your works always make my day

Thank you in advance, have a lovely day 💕

UGH ANON you're so sweet!!! you made my day with this. i'm such a silly little guy i'm so happy my keyboard smashing brought you joy i'm blushing so hard rn 💕

this reply is long, so it's under the cut!

i read a LOT, both fic and published books. in general, i have two genres that are my go-to's: romantic comedies and fantasy adventures. (now this doesn't mean high fantasy, cause i'm not a LOTR girlie, but if a story has rich lore with a soft magic system IM ALL ABOUT IT)

i'd recommend reading ANYTHING by Casey McQuinston for romantic comedies - i love their style SO MUCH. the way they go from writing dumbass humor to heartfelt romantic moments is just UGH CLENCHES FIST SO GOOD. for fantasy i can never get enough of Emily Lloyd-Jones. she's not super well known but she freakin' SHOULD BE, every time i read one of her books i'm in the ground for seven business days, she's so talented at creating magic systems.

i'm in quite a few fandoms and read a variety of ratings, so asking for a fic rec is kind of hard without knowing which shelf to grab from lol. HOWEVER, the fics that inspire me the most tend to shatter my world and rebuild it into something more beautiful. i'll list some of them here:

TTS - The Before and After by vaguenotion

Arcane - your teeth in my neck by b_o_i

VAT7K - The Silent Opera by littlemisslol

BNHA - literally anything by roadtripwithlucifer or SpiritusRex

Good Omens - A Certain Celestial Agency series by Atalan

BNHA - Missing Everything by Haptronym

TOH - With Clay and Star Scraps by SiryyGray

A LONG READING LIST I KNOW IM SORRY but these authors and stories are all genuinely SO GOOD

honestly, my inspiration is trying to be as good as anyone i listed above. i want to be like them when i grow up. writing is subjective, but if i can make at least one person feel the way i do when i read something by those authors then i know i've done my job.

I am so tired of people missing the point so let's talk about a specific take I keep hearing in reference to Rei and Endeavor

So the specific take is that if Endeavor had just gone about his goal differently not only would he have succeeded, but he would have done so ethically

If he and Rei were just a team instead of just a Hero and A Mother; if he played up the family image and Rei doubled as a wife and a sort of pr manager, and how that family image would have boosted his ratings(one person even said "if Rei had a backbone" and to that person: go fuck yourself, that's not how domestic abuse works you uncompassionate fuck)

However while this may fix the domestic abuse part if the relationship, it still misses the point. Endeavor did not come into this marriage with the intent to beat his wife and child, he did not intend to neglect his children from the get-go. That is something he did as a means to an end. Saying he did so by accident would obviously be a lie, but he did not wake up one day and decide "Abuse Is Okay, Actually". The manga makes it clear this is more of a spiral; he came into this marriage with a goal: produce and raise a heir, he got worse and worse over time.

The reason I'm highlighting the spiral here is because the narrative point is that Endeavor's goals were wrong. His intent is flawed. His reason for starting a family is inherently unethical, and his single minded focus of a selfish goal is what produced the consequences. He did not have a family because he felt he was ready to have children with the woman he loves, just for the sake of that family and those children. Their happiness and wellbeing was secondary to his goal.

Having a equal relationship with his wife isn't fixing all the problems; so long as he has kids for the purpose of a legacy, to give them some sort of pre-determined goal he is wrong. As long as he has kids for the sake of his career he is Wrong.

(That's not to say that people who have kids for the joy if it, or out if love for family can't be abusers, just that Enji was wrong from the get go)

Furthermore, this also fucks with the major themes of bnha. The Todoroki family is pretty symbolic of and involved in all the major themes and messages of the show.

The major message is that society creates it's own problems; that the false dichotomy of heroes verse villains is inherently flawed and a self fulfilling system. Society gives people roles based on their quirks; those with flashy quirks are given privilege and encouraged to be heroes whether that want to or not, people with unappealing or "scary" quirks(or just mutant quirks) are harassed and called villians, limiting that persons options and making it difficult to be anything but what society tells them they are, weak quirked or quirkless people either have to work extra hard to be a hero, or are denied anything but ridicule and forced mediocrity. There's other things taht intersect with this, like class, family heritage, or queerness(seen through Magne).

Societies often play a game of sacrifice; what are you willing to sacrifice? Who are you willing to sacrifice? What is the cost you are willing to pay(or let someone else pay) in order to sustain the current social order? In my hero the sacrifice comes in the form of the underprivileged, and children's lives. This society is forced to contend with taht fact, and the consequence of the war arc and the resolution of this arc will answer that question, but so far the answer seems to be that, no, this is not something tehy can sacrifice. Systems made in blood to maintain a hierarchy are unsustainable.

This hierarchy is exemplified by the hero ranking system. If you think about this system of more than a moment it becomes clear that it's pointless and harmful. The most effective form of hero-ing would involve cooperation, transparency, and community outreach, and the ranking undermines all of that. When teams start being formed post-culture festival it's inspite of the system.

You get higher ranking (more money/notoriety/fame) by a) arrest numbers and b) popular vote. This creates a system where heroes are competing and trying to arrest as many people as possible, which makes teamwork difficult and can produce carelessness and property damage. Also, they are incentivized to preform more-so than do their jobs. This means focusing on high-traffic areas, wealthy areas, appeal to people more likely to vote, and preform for the camera. The focus isn't inherently on saving lives, it's on preforming. Working with criminals, minimizing crime, and actually making things safer is actively discouraged in this system because of the way it's made. There can't be heroes without villians, so they have to keep the villains around because this is a profitable industry. And it doesn't even have to be real villains! Most people aren't committing mass murder! Why do you thing the first scene in the show shows a man who stole a purse being called a villain, with the heroes(specifically Mt. Lady) escalating the situation and preforming for the camera? Mha isn't subtle in it's themeing.

And the public doesn't realize these things because of propaganda and "they're a hero! Of course they're saving lives, that's their job!" The public is both being deceived and acting as an active and passive participant in upholding this system.

So, what does this have to do with the Todoroki family?

Well, for one Endeavor serves as an example that being a hero does not equal being a good person. He also shows the flaw of the system in how notoriety and competition has unhealthy and damaging results.

One important thing to acknowledge is that society is currently answering what is a cost they're willing to pay? Well, they've decided taht the Todoroki family is an appropriate price. Sure, he's faced backlash because one of his sons is a Mass Murderer, and some people are, in fact, not chill with domestic violence. But. They need him for the war effort, so h doesn't face consequences. Not significant ones, anyways. Because he's never cared what they thing, he's never tried to but on a PR friendly mask. Their word's font hurt him. He has interpersonal consequences, but that's it. They've decided the perceived protection Endeavor the hero gives them is more important than justice for the harm Endeavor the father has done.

TLDR: The Todoroki family has thematic importance, and saying if Endeavor respected his wife everything would be fine is missing an important fundamental message that his intentions in starting a family were flawed. Disregarding the messages in the story and how they intersect with the Todoroki family is also harmful.

I know I've said before that it doesn't matter if you dislike the BNHA villains, and that idc if you want them to die

However

I am so fucking smug rn lmao. How does it feel to be wrong? How does it feel to have such little reading comprehension that you are genuinely suprised that the character beloved for his kindness, the character who said he sees himself in his brother, the character that talked about getting lunch with his big brother, how does it feel knowing you were so incredibly wrong that you thought he'd kill his brother? How do you feel? Because I feel VINDICATED

My #1 post of 2022

I'm thinking about how badly the Percy Jackson universe is begging for change, yet stubbornly refuses to do so.

Think about it. The demigods are stuck in an endless loop they did not ask for; monsters that can never be truly killed because they just respawn, suffering grudges born thousands of years before their time, wars of rebellion begging to be won. The universe is in a cycle. The primordial gods made it all, the Titans over threw their oppressive father, the Gods doing the same to theirs. But then it just... Stopped. There was no next generation of slightly-more-righteous rulers. The God's have ruled for a millennial, yet they remain. The world has undeniably moved on; a bronze age, an agricultural revolution, an industrial revolution, a technological revolution- by all logic, they've vastly outstayed their welcome. They retain old traditions no one quite remembers the purpose of and they've been abandoned by a vast majority of the populace. The Roman gods should have replaced them in an epic battle of the ages, but they didn't. They evolved and merged until they struggled to differentiate themselves and avoid identity crisis.

The demigods are born for this age. They understand the world- what it needs, how it works- in a way the Gods do not and Cannot. They can become known to the public(Percy is internationally famous in tlt, Piper, Jason, and Thalia have famous parents) they have compassion where the gods have become out of touch with the mere concept. They're angry and abused, like Zeus and his father before him.

But it doesn't change. The gods make up rules and quest, have convinced these kids that 'this is life and you're lucky to have made it this far, so thank us'. The ones that want change have gone about it wrong. They brought in Kronos and Gaea, monarchs of forgotten ages; those deities got their time, and were duly replaced. To reinstate them would be to replay an era long since past, and no longer needed. They are not the fated revolution; history repeats, but it does not rewind.

The Titans and Giants were not the answer, but a revolution must be had. Before the line is tarnished anymore, something has to give. The halfbloods have been beaten and broken, they use weapons of old, replay old grudges, and in their old Greek/Roman attire and training they stick out in the modern age; they've been held back while the world evolved.

So something needs to be changed, and it needs to be them. They need to be the ones to instate a new rule, before the universe is messed up any further. Fate is screaming out to them with increasingly peril threats of old, with large powers at play that refuse to lend a hand. These kids do so much for their parents, but the gods just keep biting the hand that feeds them. It's time they bite back.

They wouldn't even be hopeless; it fits with the history(the Gods were greatly outnumbered, and the Titans had to fight the sky itself). They are increasingly strong and have defeated gods already. They beat Time and Earth. The gods rely on them: they do their dirty work, they keep them alive and powerful through prayer, they protect them. As much as their parents refuse to admit it, they would be dead without their children. They could fight, and they could win.

The world is begging for change, so change it.

Why not just make a new character?

I love fandoms and I love the work they can produce, but it has always left me confused when people would change so many traits that it no longer feels like the same character (sometimes it is just clearly someone stealing the popularity of the character to increase their own popularity). Connecting to a character and projecting some of your traits onto them is one thing, but reforming all the characteristics except the hair or an interest or some other small but general trait makes no sense to me.

For example, I know putting non-humans/non-human-looking-characters into Human AUs is popular and also allows for a lot of personal liberties. However, I've seen people just slap the name and relationships on completely knew characters with different personalities and designs.

For me, a good example of this is Mina from BNHA. I've seen artists draw her as a black girl with afro-styled hair. Mina doesn't present as typically human in the series so her design is up to your imagination in a (typical) Human AU. Plus, in BNHA, she has a mutation quirk, which we are shown can lead to discrimination in that world. For many people who are minority races within their own communities, they may see that correlation and build a bond with her character. Adding these traits don't take away from her character, they add without deleting other characteristics.

Unfortunately, I've seen this perspective be corrupted, for a lack of a better word. Instead of making a small adjustment to the original character or a completely new character that barrows traits from the original character, people just make a new character and slap the name on them.

Why not make a new OC and state that you were influenced/inspired? Why do some people feel the need to add traits that would realistically change the character fundamentally? If you want representation from a character, why slap it on an old character instead of making a fresh, organic character?

Like I love imagining, for instance, Cater from Twisted Wonderland just using queer slang. There is nothing funnier to me imaging him grimacing, scolding you gently but directly, and ending it by calling you girly-pop. It fits his characteristic of being chronically online as well as his canon laid-back-but-fun personality.

Honestly, I don't really have any bad examples in mind right now, but I do remember them popping-up here and there. As a whole, I definitely know the difference between a headcanon, canon, AU, and just a whole new character using a popular name/body.

Please, if you feel like you are missing representation, make a character with that in mind. That character you are projecting onto will never fully be able to give the needed representation the justice its deserves if the original character never had that trait in the first place.

Heck, pull a Spider-verse (or, well, Comic Books in general) and make a new AU where your whole new character is in place of the original character. Remember the main concept of that whole series: Miles Morales is NOT Peter Parker. Miles Morales is Spiderman.

Hawks x Fem!Reader

-> 2.97k words 💘

The Secret’s Out!

Valentine’s Exchange Gift For Nicole💘💘💘 ( @vixenpen ) 💘💘💘 love u!

Exchange Organized by The Lovely @ayocee !!! ❣️

Prompt: Hawks Valentine’s date that ends in smut

Warnings: 18+, sexual content, fluff + smut

A/N: This is my first time writing for BNHA!!! So cool - It was fun, hope it’s sufficient:)

Song: Unthinkable by Alicia Keys 

The chilled red wine cooled your warm tongue as you emptied the remains of your glass.

Licking your now red-stained lips, to get rid of the fogginess you blinked at the laptop screen in front of you. 

“Baby,” you called as you poured yourself a third glass. “Can you show me the sunset again?” 

Displayed on your cute laptop screen is a FaceTime call—one that you certainly could have answered on your iPhone but you needed the visual to be as big as possible tonight.

When your question reached the other side of the call, the screen that once showed you in real-time: the intensity of the Pacific ocean in spring from a birds-eye view, tilted like a rollercoaster. Then, your eyes were met with the awe-inspiring visual that is the Pacific sunset from the point of view in the centre of the ocean. It’s shot from a perfect perspective: a perspective too low for a plane to capture, yet too high for a boat to capture. It is a perspective only attainable by a certain pro hero of yours…

“Wow...” your lips moved autonomously, even before you had time to register the thought— but as are the effects of your favourite bottle of red. 

Your eyes bore into the gorgeous planes of the orange and pink horizon. You unknowingly let your cheek rest on your closed fist, soaking in the rarity of this wonder. Admiring it.

“You like it, beautiful?” Called a loving voice, taking you out of your trance for a second. 

“Of course.” You answered. 

“I—“

“Please. Don’t give me that cheesy ‘it’s not as beautiful as you’ line that’s it’s in every lame movie,” 

The soft joyous chuckle of your boyfriend’s laugh reverberated through the speakers, travelling right from his lips to your heart: effectively warming it in  its entirety. 

“I was actually going to say to say that I wish I could bring your tipsy ass up here.” He chuckled again. “This mission would sure be a lot more fun if your legs were wrapped around me. You know: pretending to drop you so you’d hold on tighter.... your ass in my hands...” 

“Hm,” you smirked, glad that your new boyfriend didn’t plan on giving you one of the cheesy lines most guys did. “I agree.” 

“Yeah?” Your boyfriend inquired, voice rising with interest. “You really are getting tipsy, aren’t you? Usually you’d kill me for even saying that,” 

“Well...Under these circumstances.. maybe I wanna be nice tonight....” you weren’t aware of the sexual innuendo entering your tone when you said that either.

But your boyfriend, however-- picked up on it right away. 

He bit his lip bottom. “...how nice?” 

“Hmmm… Nice enough to balance out the awfulness that is: my boyfriend having to leave me in the middle of our first Valentine’s Day date?” 

Hawks sighed. “Mmmmm I know. I know, baby, and I’m sorry….” 

You frowned. “Why are you apologizing? It was incredible while it lasted and we were able to get through most of it without interruption, so I have to be thankful for that knowing your job. Plus, It’s not like it’s your fault—“

“But I’m apologizing anyway. I wanted to finish the date and be there with you... I wanted to see your face when you saw how I decorated my apartment for you,” 

Your eyes left the passing sunset so that you could take in the over-the-top but romantic-as-all-hell way in which your man decorated his apartment for you for Valentine’s Day.

From where you laid atop the blankets on his King sized bed, you could see the shiny balloons everywhere; some on the floor moving around because the window is open and the air is blowing them slightly. You could also see the dozens of candle flames fluttering with the wind and making the room smell heavenly--you could also see the real rose petals everywhere, even underneath you on the bed, as well as the silver and red streamers on the ceilings that could not easily be reached by anyone but your Hawks. You smiled to yourself at the thought of your cooler-than-thou boyfriend sprinkling girly rose petals everywhere as your boyfriend continued speaking. 

 “--It’s annoying because this mission is not even anything big, either. Just scouting for Selkie while his crew is out. It’s shitty new Hero work, to be honest, but the kids are in final exams right now I guess. Either way, I’d much rather be finishing the amazing date I had planned with you. I mean at least I got to take you to that yakiniku spot, but—“

“—That food was amazing, though,” 

Keigo returned your interruption—though his voice dropped, speaking slowly. “—Your dress was amazing.” 🤤 he let out a sexily breathy chuckle, not missing a beat. 

Clearly, it had been something on his mind judging by how quickly that response came out. 

This time, when you heard your boyfriend’s sensually connotation chuckle; warmed more than just your heart. 

Acting on impulse, and maybe a little bit on alcohol, too, your hand not holding the wine glass fiddled with the end of the short but very expensive-looking dress you wore. It is a form fitting maxi and, yes, it is red. 

You made sure to pick a red that perfectly matched the colour of your Pro hero’s wings. Ironically enough, it matched the colour of the wine you’ve been drinking tonight too.

Needless to say, you ruffled Hawk’s feathers in the best way when he picked you up earlier tonight. He was practically salivating and if he didn’t have reservations you two would have never made it out the house tonight. You made him behave himself until after dinner even though you wanted to pounce on him all the same. The look of your man in a tux, God damn. The wait always made it better, though.

So you two did wait. And that ‘later’ that you two unspokenly promised each other over heated glances at dinner is…. now. 

However, this “now” had been tortuously ripped away from you both when your man got a Hero call just as he was simultaneously fumbling with his house keys and undoing his belt. You avoided pouting or crying about his departure by indulging in your favourite wine that your boyfriend had bought, the one chilling near the bed just for you two. 

“You liked it?” You asked about your dress, your voice matching the sensual aspect of Tamaki’s. 

Your man groaned through the speakers. “Your legs........your ass......” is all he answered before he fantasized over there,

You watched the screen as Hawk’s right-wing that was visible in the FaceTime: straightened. “God, babe...If I wasn’t on this mission...”

“—If you weren’t on this mission, what?” You inquired coyly, unaware of the fact that the hand of yours that was playing with the dress’s hem had now begun brushing your thigh, tingling your skin lightly. The tingling was only intensified by the breezy air that flowed through the opened windows in Hawk’s apartment. It was complemented only by the sound of the breeze that took up the speaker because the #2 hero was calmly soaring through the air. 

“If....” Keigo continued, “If I wasn’t on this mission staring at this fucking ocean.... then I’d....” 

Your fingers pushed your skirt up—just barely. 

“You’d...?” 

“I’d be staring at another ocean, one I like much more--tongue-fucking you so deeply you’d be pooling around me, babe. Just the way I like you to.” 

Your breath hitched when those travelling fingers on yours pressed against the outside of your g-string: prodding lightly against the fabric that covered the ocean your man was talking about. 

Upon hearing your breath hitch, the FaceTime video camera scrambled upward, your gorgeous boyfriend coming into view as he soared through the sky. Behind those transparent yellow goggles, his eyes were wide. Not because he was surprised, oh no, on the contrary: your boyfriend knew just how much you wanted him to make you scream tonight based on the way you looked at him over dinner...that wasn’t it. 

His eyes widened more out of jealousy: recognizing the sound of your impending orgasm—even if very far—as accurately as he can recognize danger on a Hero mission. “Aw, you gonna play without me, baby?” He sounded smug, not sad. 

“Call it getting a head start...” You answered quickly, knowing that your boyfriend’s mission shouldn’t last longer than a few hours. That just meant you’d be able to take a nap in between that would hopefully give you enough energy to keep up with your insatiable, sex-God of a man when he gets home. 

“Okay, beautiful. Then start.” He answered coolly—sexily. 

Your entire body responded in the feeling of increased sensitivity, irrevocably turned on by your boyfriend’s demands. 

And he knew that. 

You stretched so that you could set your wine glass on the bedside table, giving your man a great view of your ass in that red dress. 

The same red dress that’s been living in his horny thoughts rent-free for the past two hours. 

He groaned. “Do that again and I’m losing my job today,” 

You smiled prettily as you returned to the laptop camera, getting comfortable by suckling on your middle & pointer finger gently. 

“Shit, Y/N...I love when you’re eager baby,”

You nodded, staring at your boyfriend through the screen as he flew through the sky. You did this as you awaited instruction patiently. As always. 

Hawks, who had originally been using his back camera-only in order to avoid getting distracting from enemy-watch, tried to remind himself why he did that as he struggled to keep hold of his phone. 

On his end, the sight of you looking so needy and sucking on your own fingers so that they were wet when you plunged them into the heat that—just the thought makes him drool—proved too much for him. 

And you haven’t even started yet.

His dick hardened just from looking at you. 

“No, Hawks. Can’t.” Hawks mumbled to himself, obviously putting his phone back down and switching the camera so it wasn’t facing him again. You were met with the pretty water once encore, the waves now sparkling due to the warm sunset reflecting off of them. 

“I can’t watch, love.” Hawks stated, disappointment evident in his tone. “But don’t stop. Close your eyes and lay on your back.”

Fingers still in your mouth, you listened. 

“Spread those legs, baby.” 

You listened. 

“Hike up that dress but don’t.take.it.off. That job’s for me. You hear me?” 

You nodded, even though neither of you could see each other. 

Hawks, being the good hero that he is, used all of his mental strength not to peek. He had to complete this mission.

You always listened anyway. 

As always.

“Pull down the straps of your dress--just the straps. So that your tits are out. Are you wearing a bra?” 

You were going to move your finger to answer before your man did it for you, 

“Fuck, no you’re not...” he said in a strained voice. He recalled how your perky nipples pressed against the sinful dress’s red fabric in the car because you were cold. This was before Hawks had given you his jacket that you wore the rest of the night. “God imma lose this job....” Keigo muttered to himself, shaking his head. 

“Mm,” you answered around your own fingers. 

“Make small circles around inner thighs, baby. Right around the prize. Use the hand that isn’t currently filling-in for my cock.”

You moaned, doing just as he says with the visual of your man’s perfect dick replacing your fingers in your mind right now. You felt your pussy throb. 

Hawks inwardly cursed his job when he heard you moan, pleased with himself but subconsciously deliberating just how much shit he’d get in if he left this mission post right now... 

After a few minutes, when Hawks heard your breath pick up, triggering him to get harder, he licked his dry lips and said, 

“Mm, now move your thong to the side. Slide those fingers up and down your lips baby, the same way I do with my tongue. You know how.” 

“Mmff,” you moaned, eyes still closed and still licking around your own fingers. You pretended you were cockwarming the #2 hero’s heavenly length. 

“Good, baby. Now switch hands.” 

You listened immediately—using the soaked fingers in your mouth to glide up and down your soaking pussy lips. They slid even easier than your other hand did and since—in your head—those fingers were stepping in as your man’s dick, it somehow felt even more pleasurable than your other hand. 

You moaned, arching your back slightly. “O-oh,” 

Against his better judgement, Keigo was unable to stop himself from looking down at his phone when you moaned like that, immediately dropping the device when the sight of you running your hand between your pussy lips with that sexy dress bunched at the waist came into vision.

“Fuck,” Hawks cursed, flying down quickly to grab his phone just before it hit the water. 

He checked to make sure that him dropping it hadn’t disturbed you, and then he let out a sigh of relief when he realized he hadn’t. You were still doing as he said with your eyes closed, and obviously having a good time doing it too. 

Unable to fight his desire anymore, Tamaki’s eyes darted around, scanning the horizon and the ocean for anyone within a 100-mile radius. 

When he deemed the coast, quite literally—clear—he held his phone with one hand and stuffed his hand inside his pants, grabbing his overexcited dick. 

“Insert one finger baby. You pick.” Keigo directed--his own finger encircling the tip of his dick. He resisted a groan that begged to be released. 

“Good. Now, insert the other. No, nice and slow baby. Niceeee…. and slow,” 

You did--and he copied your movements, a sense of pride washing over him that he had such a beautiful, absolutely stunning lover. 

***

You listened to your man for the next ten or so minutes... trying your best to hold off your orgasm as your stomach coiled in the best way. The combination of your fingers; the sound of your man’s deep voice giving demands; the thought of his dick inside you instead; and the way that the wind entering his apartment via the open windows contrasted the heat of your wet vagina; wow…. all of it just felt too incredible. 

“I’m close, baby...” you whispered hastily. “Can I touch my—“ 

Just as you were about to ask if you could pinch your nipples in order to throw yourself over the edge, you were erotically surprised by someone--or should you say someTHING --doing it for you. 

Your eyes shot open, and then your back arched, even more, when you realized that the thing that touched you is nothing more than a red feather. 

It encircled your nipple pleasurably, another coming from the window and encircled the other nipple. 

Your toes curled. The feathers were the same colour as your dress. 

“Ahh, Keigo!” You moaned, not even waiting for permission before you sped up the pace of your fingers. Your eyes squeezed shut on their own fruition.

There was a smirk in your boyfriend’s voice. “I assume they’re there, baby?” 

“Ngh.....” you sped up the pace even more, your short fingers just barely hitting your g-spot; the g-spot that your man’s dick can always reach. You whimpered.

The feathers around your nipples whirled around your body whimsically, filling in for what your fingers were just short of in other ways: 

travelling down the line that centres your breast... 

tracing your neckline... 

moving down to encircle your ankles... 

“Oh my God, H-Hawks, yes-s, ah....!”

The soft-touch of the material’s feathers felt so good. No, they weren’t Hawks’ strong hands, and the two small entities just ghosted over your skin... barely locatable, but it is the fact that they were red and they were your MAN’s —your man who is physically cities away right now—that made this indescribably amazing for you. 

He is cities away: yet he is here. This is him. 

“Hawks…” you sighed, getting closer and closer, 

“Y/N....” Hawks sighed back roughly: deeply. 

Not that you could see but his eyes were half-lidded as he watched you get off. Seeing you be assaulted by the feathers he sent drove him absolutely mad. This had to be the sexiest things he’s ever seen from afar. 

“I love you, Y/N.” Your man said softly, biting his lip and forgetting his demands because right now he needed to cum. The sight of you like this was too much to bear. Hawk’s picked up the pace of his own hand on his cock. 

When the feathers returned to your nipples from your belly button, you let out a wanton scream moan, your white-hot orgasm ripping through your body as violently as the Pacific waves that were crashing underneath your boyfriend right now. 

Hawks’ orgasm followed soon after, your name falling from his lips as he just-barely pulled his pants down in time so that he released in the ocean instead of in his suit pants. 

You both calmed your breathing as you came back down to earth. The feathers fell next to you as if they were sleeping peacefully. 

After a few moments passed and you found the strength to open your eyes, rolling over to look at your Hero. He matched your semi-satiated expression so you could guess that he had found sweet release as well just now.

Keigo knew you well enough to know that you needed a nap at this time, just as you usually did post-orgasm. Therefore, he wasn’t surprised whatsoever when you whispered in parting:

“Happy Valentine’s Day, baby. Be home soon so we can do...this... in person.” 

“Of course.” Hawks answered. Then, he couldn’t resist adding a cheeky pun.

“I’ll fly there if I have to.”

I don’t think this is a particularly hot take but I’ll elaborate on the ‘Phase and East are siblings’ theory

Part 1

(The reasoning is in no particular order)

Spoilers for RvB Zero and BNHA

So firstly they’re pretty clearly meant to be foils.

Promo Photos:

[A Red vs Blue Zero promo image with East, One and Axel. East stands on the far left, One in the center and Axel to her right. ]

[A Red Vs Blue Zero promo image with Phase, Zero and Diesel. Phase stands on the far left, Zero is in the center and Diesel is to his right.]

Phase and East are in similar poses and in the same position. Similar to how One + Zero (both characters with numbers for names) and Diesel + Axel (both characters with car related names) are posed. This indicates that they’re meant to be a pair. I guess if we wanted to get really into naming conventions, both the names PhASE and EASt contain the letters ‘A’, ‘E’ and ‘S’. All of their similarities could be boiled down to them being foils, BUT it could also be because they’re meant to be siblings/clones/whatever.

Their Color Schemes:

East is pink, Phase is (pinkish) purple. Pink and purple are generally considered similar colors, they’re both viewed as feminine (we’ll touch on that one later), they’re both associated with compassion and beauty, they both have red in them. Obviously armor color doesn’t indicate whether two characters are related (Carolina and Tucker for example aren’t related), however the sibling pairs we’ve seen in the series so far do have similar color pallets.

[An image of Dexter and Kaikaina Grif from Red vs Blue. Dexter is on the left and Kaikaina is on the right]

Grif and Kaikaina are (a very yellowish) orange and yellow.

[An image of Agent North Dakota and Agent South Dakota from Red vs Blue. North is on the left and South stands back-to-back with him on his right.]

North and South are shades of purple + green.

Femininity:

Again, two people being traditionally feminine doesn’t mean they’re related, and this could also just be a part of them being foils, BUT they both are somewhat ‘girly’. They both have ‘girly’ color palettes, the way they both walk and move (sashaying, one hand one hip, etc) (honestly Carolina, Tiny and One could totally be doing this too, take everything I say about body language with a grain of salt I’m not very good at picking up on it lol), Phase is even the token girl of Viper.

[Two images side-by-side. The image on the left is Phase from Red vs Blue Zero, she stands with one hand on her hip. The image on the right is of East from Red vs Blue Zero, standing similarly to Phase, with one hand on her hip.]

Body Language/Fighting Style:

I know I just said I’m bad at picking up on body language and you shouldn’t listen to me but just bear w me lol.

[A gif of Phase and East from Red vs Blue Zero. They stand back to back and then spin away from each other. Their movements mirror each other.]

[Two gifs side-by-side. On the left, Phase from RvB Zero performs a bolley kick. On the right, East from Rvb Zero performs a bolley kick.]

[Two gifs side-by-side. On the left, Phase from RvB Zero performs a cartwheel. On the right, East from Rvb Zero performs a cartwheel.]

[A gif of East and Phase from RvB Zero, they're fighting. East kicks at Phase and then Phase kicks at East. ]

[Two gifs side-by-side of Phase and East from RvB Zero. On the left, Phase kicks East off a van. On the right East kicks Phase off a van.]

Honestly their whole fight together in Encounter was really interesting, they seemed to be ‘mirroring’ each other the entire time. Maybe clones or something rather than siblings?

Powers:

Okay so they both have powers, and their powers are quite similar. East has short speed bursts, Phase has short teleportation bursts via her knife and I believe both of them were stated to be the result of experiments. Phase also seems to have a power called an ‘Echo’. I know some people were theorizing that East might be Phase’s ‘Echo’, but I think what’s more likely is that the Wash that Raymond and West rescued in Duo, who is still comatose, is Phase’s ‘Echo’, seeing as he was described as ‘bait’ and East has been around for longer than a few days.

Taunts:

This is pretty minor and just something I noticed when I was editing them, but they seem to have similar taunts during fighting.

East’s “Did you miss me?”

And Phase’s “Looking for me?”

(You can watch my edit here if you’re curious)

End of Part 1

[redscarfedsoldier]

I just thought...

What’s going to happen to this blog when snk ends...

I mean even last year I thought the anime would take way longer to adapt fully than it is going to...

I mean I’m 110% not leaving tumblr or anything even though im slightly more active on twitter now :oo but, making this blog way more active again is on my to-do list before snk ends.

but after it actually completely isn’t updating anymore... I think there will definitely still be a decent amount of snk stuff, but i’ll maybe throw in some boku no hero academia and kimetsu no yaiba? perhaps a few similar things? i don’t think ill make it completely multifandom because im not too picky with my interests so im into a lot of cutesy stuff and action adventure stuff, so... im not sure people here for snk would want their dash filled with fluffy frilly pink girly stuff? xD and I have a sideblog and twitter for that? but maybe things i know a lot of people from the snk fandom are also into!!

I also still need to catch up on yakusoku no neverland... I miss emma. 💖💞 So yeah, it’s still kind of tbd and a while away, but I might post some bnha, kny, ynn, etc, along with snk in the future... after like 8 years of being mostly into snk/rivamika xD 💖

Nani the heck is this? Read here!

Chapter 11: Secret Gardens Grow Forbidden Fruits

Its Monday and news of the practice test victory spread around to the few that didn’t tune in. I woke up still not at my best condition, Mimi and Jin were just as bad. I drove us to school but our bodies weren’t letting us walk properly, lucky for us, Diya put us in the school golf cart to take us to class from the parking lot. Since I have to go back and forth campus in my school day, I got a wheelchair to propel myself via Muffin 2.0.

-Homeroom before Weaponry-

“Ok class, we are going over heavy weapons today so fully suit up!” Diya announced as he panned to us “except for our trio here, you three still have to observe so you don’t have excuses when you do get better and have to do it.”

“Yes sir!” we said in unison. 

“This sucks ass! I really wanted to get hands on right away with the heavy stuff!” huffed Mimi.

“Me too! Didn’t think I’d be this fucked up after that exam!” groaned Jin as he wobbled to the back of the golf cart.

“I got the most damage, I can’t even feed myself!” I said as I sat in the wheelchair “Last night Glasses had to spoon feed me dinner and carried me around like a fucking child!”

Before Mimi and Jin could say anything, our classmate Yuka spoke up “Are you telling me that boy isn’t your new boyfriend? Girly, a boy wouldn’t just carry you around or feed you because you’re hurt, he’s in love with you!”

“Naw! he’s just being nice!” I retort “He’s been like that since my first day in that class. It’s not love, it’s just kindness!”

“Oh yea? what makes you think its JUST that?” sassed Yuka.

“Well, since living together, he hasn’t made any moves on me that have romantic notions. I gave him the opportunity to kiss me and he got close and backed out. I just think he’s gay or questioning and is confiding in me to keep his secret.” I say as we made our way to the gym.

“Hmmm that does add up, maybe you’re right” Yuka said pondering.

Weapons class was a disaster zone with a lot of injuries and sprained shoulders. The 3 of us were sort glad we didn’t get hands on right away. Class ends a bit early because of the amount of injuries, that gave me time to navigate myself to the hero wing in the wheelchair and Muffin 2.0. I was making my way down and I see some 1-B students walking toward me, I think dang I’m that early!

“Oh hello Palma-san!” said Kendo “how are you?”

“Hi! I’ve seen better days” I said rubbing my knees “I took a serious beating and my knees are giving out but I should be ready to train again later this week.”

“That’s a relief to hear! Oh, have you met my classmate here?” she said motioning to Monoma.

“I saw him at the welcome party but I don’t think I got the pleasure to meet you!”

“Humph! Well if you must know! I am Neito Monoma, we have the same copy quirk.” he said very dramatically.

“Very nice to meet you! Copy you say? how long can you sustain your copies? Can you do doubles? Do you have mastery in any?” I said intrigued by our common factor.

“Um well I sustain them for 5 minutes at a time and I didn’t really think about those other things you said.”

“Oh....then what are you training to be?”

“Well a Hero of course!”

“Doesn’t seem like you are if you don’t have mastery or can double wield.”

“THATS WHAT I’VE BEEN TELLING HIM!” exclaimed Kendo “He thinks he can make it into the A class by just degrading everyone and working out the minimum.”

“No! thats not how it works dude” I said giving Monoma a hard look “I can help train you the way I self-taught myself to hold my copies for hours at a time and how to double wield once I recover. If you really want to make it with the big boys, you gotta put on your big boy pants and make the effort.”

“I wear my pants just fine, agent!” he scoffed “but I accept this training session.”

“Great! I’m so proud of you Neito!” Kendo said excitedly “maybe you’d be able to finally be on par with me!”

“You’re embarrassing me in front of her!” said Monoma blushing at his expose of weakness. 

“Cool! I’ll be letting you know when I get back on my feet so we can get started!” I said as I scooted away “Bye bye now!”

“She’s so sweet!” said Kendo turning into their classroom “can’t believe you let your guard down like that around her.”

“Well, she was in a wheelchair! what could she do?!” he said walking to his seat “she’s also easy on the eyes so training with her would be a treat for me.”

*cut to the Hero class, before I arrive*

“I’m a bit worried about Palma-san” said Tokoyami “she was groaning trying to get ready for school and was the last one to leave the dorms.”

“I saw her get loaded on the back of the school golf cart along with her friends this morning” said Todoroki “but maybe she’s being carried here by somebody.”

“Maybe All Might?!” perked up Midoriya.

“NO YOU STUPID DEKU!” Bakugo yelled at Midoriya “she hates All Might, thats the last person she’d want to help her.”

“Maybe I should go and see if she needs assistance” said Iida standing up “she wouldn’t want to miss today’s lesson.”

As he made his way to the door, I arrive and Muffin 2.0 slid the door open.

“Hi everyone! please excuse my robot and wheels, I can’t walk very far without falling but I should be fine by Wednesday.” I said as positive as possible.

“Oh no! that won’t do! Here let me” Iida said picking me up from the wheelchair and walking me to my desk “allow me to write today’s notes so you can rest your hands too.”

“Tenya I’m not a child! I can do this on my own” I said flushed because I don’t like being carried “besides, Muffin 2.0 is programed to take notes for me and other assisted commands.”

Class starts and we go over new laws and how they’re affecting us. Class ended right on time and as I’m waiting for everyone to leave so I can wobble over to my wheelchair, Iida walks up to me.

“Please Ita, let me carry and accompany you.”

“You can accompany me but don’t carry me, I don’t like it.”

“Why not?”

“Because, I feel the breeze on my bottom and I’m pretty sure everyone got a peek at my panties and my big butt.”

Iida blushed hard realizing that I felt uncomfortable “I’m sorry! I didn’t know you’d-”

“It’s alright, I know you mean well” I said trying to comfort him “I’ll be good by Wednesday and I can start training again.”

Fast forward to Wednesday, in Recovery Girl’s office with Midnight.

“Ok Miss Palma, you can start training again. Just make sure you don’t over exert yourself.”

“Thank you Recovery Girl!”

“How did her other analysis go?” asked Midnight.

“As for her other health analysis, asthma stayed the same, cholesterol is normal, blood work is normal, stress is a factor we need to work on and same for mental health. Mindful practices are good for stress and body, please seek help when you’re in your homesick phases for a healthy outlet other than crying.”

“I know” I said softly “often I find myself in those phases when I’m alone or late night so it’s a bit hard to reach out to somebody to talk to. But I do want to cope and control my stress better.”

“We can arrange something then, if you can’t reach a peer, you can always reach me.” said Midnight putting their hand on my back.

It’s after school and I walk to the dorms, just to sort through my thoughts and when was the last time I cried. Nothing really eventful was happening when I got to my dorm so I just shut myself in for the evening to do homework. Some of the boys were scheming,

“Guys I can’t take this anymore!” said Mineta flailing his arms “aren’t you a little curious to see what is in Palma-san’s room?!”

“Just leave her be!” said Sero “what do you want see so badly that’s in her room?”

“Her secrets! All the things she’s hiding from us!” Mineta said standing on the couch “think about it! Every time she does anything, its a secret she’s been hiding from us. She has a bigger room than us and I bet she has kept all her secrets in her closet.”

“Do you know what” said Aoyama as he sat up from the floor “I’ve noticed that too! Plus she hardly makes any noise when she is in her room that it’s a bit suspicious.”

“Wait! remember when she said she has a car?” said Kirishima suddenly realizing something “she mentioned that Iida kept that secret along with other secrets, that means that Iida knows her whole secret facade.”

The boys get wide eyed and run to Iida’s room and knock on his door.

“Yes? is there something wrong?”

“We need to talk Iida-kun” said Mineta.

“About?”

“You keeping Palma-san’s secrets” said Kirishima getting in his face.

“Yes she has confided in me to keep her secrets, what of it?” 

“We need answers! What and why does she hide so many things?” confronted Aoyama “and why doesn’t she trust us?”

“Look not even I know if I have the full truth, all I know is that she’s been through a lot since landing in Japan.”

“A likely story from someone that knows all her secrets” said Mineta slyly “are these secrets the reasons why you won’t confess to her?”

“Get out of my room!”

They boys get kicked out of Iida’s room but they’re persistent to know what’s the deal with her. Fast forward to Saturday, day of some quirk training with some 1-B students.

“Ok I’m off yall! Be back by sunset!” I said as I teleport off.

Little to everyone’s knowledge, Mineta sneaks into her room.

“I have ventured into the forbidden garden” he said taking a deep sniff of the fragrant air “what secrets hide in her desk?”

He shuffles through all the stationary on the desk and sees some framed pictures of her family back home on the desk. He picks them up to take a closer look and sees a picture of her with a boy, holding hands and the boy kissing her on the forehead.

“A secret boyfriend?! No way!” he said realizing that there’s no other explanation on who this boy is. He puts the framed picture back and looks through the drawers, nothing that stands out other than everything is separated by color and there’s a lot of black clothes in the mix. He looks through the vanity and sees of professional grade make up.

“Why does she have all this? She has naturally clear skin and does eye makeup at most.” He put all the makeup back and goes to the closet. He sees the mini tv and console were moved to reveal all her coats, dresses, uniforms and swim suits. At the top there was labeled boxes that said things like Drag, Sewing, Cultural things but a box that caught his eye was one labeled ‘???’. Curious, he took the box down and opened it to find random items like beads, shells, a lighter and dried flowers. He puts it back and sees that she has both skirts and pant uniforms.

“Why does she have both?” he said as his gaze was turned to a garment bag with her name and 2 numbers on a white card in the clear pocket of the bag. “What in the world is this?” He unzipped it to find a red uniform with metal buttons, an embroidered K on the breast, the word Knights on the upper arms and black suspender pants. 

“She was training to be a knight?” he said as he zipped it back up and looked at the bottom of the closet and saw all her shoes, nothing unusual there. Some exercise equipment in a wicker basket that ranged from boxing gloves, brass knuckles and jump rope sparked some questions. Behind that was a red and white plastic box, upon opening it was a back military type hat with a metal sliver star crest on the front. On the inside of the lid it said in her handwriting, “NEVER FORGET YOUR DREAMS AND HOW HAPPY THEY MADE YOU”

“What the? How does she have all these things?” he questioned he put the hat back in the box. He moves on the night stand near the bed, there were some strange items like small canisters and ointment tubes that were in Spanish. Along with those items were pain medications, vitamins and cold medicine, nothing strange for that drawer. In the bigger bottom drawer, there were cables and chargers for different devices along with some of those said devices. As he was searching through the drawer, Kaminari notices that the door is open and Mineta was inside.

“DUDE YOU’RE ACTUALLY GOING THROUGH HER STUFF?!”

“AHH DON’T SCARE ME LIKE THAT!”

This yelling caught the attention of the other boys and came rushing in.

“What are you doing?! This is so wrong” said Sato.

“Guys lets get out before Iida-kun or Palma-san come back!” said Midoriya in fear.

“But guys I found a lot of things she’s been keeping from us!” Mineta said pointing at the framed pictures on the desk “she has a secret boyfriend!” then he pointed to the closet “and she has both the boys and girls uniform PLUS an official military uniform, hat and everything!”

The boys started to murmur to each other about these new found evidence. Mineta starts to look under her pillows to find any thing strange and found a rosary.

“Look! she has one of those Jesus necklace thingys!” he said as he held it up for everyone to see. The boys murmur even more and Mineta notices black feathers between the nightstand and the bed on the floor and how oddly similar they look like Tokoyami’s. He bend over to pick one up and sees that there was a whole bunch of flat storage containers under the bed.

“LOOK! she has more stuff under the bed!” he said as he lifted the comforter sheet that was draped just enough to hide the containers “not only that but I found some of Tokoyami-san’s feathers here on the floor.”

Everyone turned to Tokoyami and he started to sweat “Oh that’s strange hehehe what does she need with those?”

“Tokoyami-kun.... did you and Palma-senpai...” started Todoroki and Tokoyami was sweating harder “get into copy training too?”

He exhaled in relief “yes we did, I just she wanted to see if she can copy my mutation and she can.” The boys didn’t think anything else of it and peered at what Mineta was taking out. They see her weapons used for field work, live and rubber ammo, Short staffs that look custom made and arm wraps.

“I understand the weapons and ammo” started Bakugo “but the staffs and arm wraps? I’ve never seen her train or use them when we train! So why the hell does she have them!?”

Mineta puts them back and takes out a shoe box that looks like it held her pink running shoes. Upon opening, they see that it has a cards, letters and notes all filed neatly. They skim through and find some recent ones from her passing the exam and 2 confession notes.

“Oh these are all the notes and cards she’s ever received from people, how sentimental and sweet Palma-san really is!” fawned Kota.

“Some of these are from America! Look at the dates on those ones” said Kirishima pointing at a few cards and heart shaped letters “those ones date a year back!”

Mineta puts them back and pulls out a large container and inside was her feminine hygiene products and a wand massager but to the boys, they had no clue what they were. “What are these wrapped things? Gauze or something?”

“Look theres chocolates in there too! and one of those fancy back massagers!” said Sato “and... what is that? extra toothpaste?” It wasn’t toothpaste, it was body safe lube but they didn’t pay attention to it and moved on to the next container. They opened a slightly heavier one and it was filled with American, Mexican and Japanese snacks and sweets. The boys gasped at the sight of such a stash!

“Look at all these snacks! Hot Cheetos? chamoy? Skittles? JOLLY RANCHERS?! I HAVEN’T EVEN HEARD OF SOME OF THESE?!” exclaimed Mineta “how is she getting her hands on all these? She doesn’t go grocery shopping or gets packages sent here!”

“Palma-san has strange taste in snacks, most of these are spicy and salty, even the things labeled as candy!” observed Shoji as he picked up a sandia con chile lollipop.

Iida hears all the squabbling from his room and walks out to see where it’s coming from and sees that Palma’s room is wide open and peers in to his horror. “WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!” he yelled as the boys are opening another box “I didn’t think you would try it! I’m so disappointed in you all!”

“It was Mineta!” said everyone as they pointed to him “we came in later!”

“IIDA-KUN! She’s hiding so many things that don’t make sense!” said Mineta defensively “Like who’s that kissing her in that picture! and the non-school uniform in her closet!”

“And the short staffs under her bed! And her stash of snacks! And these gauze packs! And-”

“ENOUGH! Get out of her room! It’s near sunset and she’ll be here any moment now!” 

The boys look out the window to see the sun reaching the horizon and Palma teleporting to the front of the dorms with a box. They all panicked to put everything back and fixed her bed. They all scrambled to get out of her room and Mineta and Sero were still in the room when they heard her walking toward her room and unlocked her door. Mineta hid in the closet and Sero under the bed. They see her walk in as she took off her shoes and put the box on the floor. She did a stress groan so loud it startled them, then she took off her jacket and shirt to reveal her scratches from her training session.

“oof, better put some ointment after my shower....where did I put my towel?” I said as I reached for my towel that wasn’t on it’s usual spot on the hamper. “Odd, could’ve sworn I put my towel on the hamper-” I stopped and saw that my drawers weren’t closed all the way “fuckin Mina better have washed whatever she put back this time!” I said as I closed the drawers and opened the top one to find some clean underwear and socks “wonder if I’m gonna get some comforting today~” I say giggling not knowing that the boys are watching and hearing me. I choose my black set of underwear with thigh highs and pair them with a non-suspecting pj pants and t-shirt “there! just so he has something to pull to reveal~” I say as I turn to get my bath caddy to wash up. I drop one of my body scrubs and it rolled into my closet “I don’t remember having opened that side of my closet? Or did I?”. Mineta knew it was game over when I said that, I opened my closet and see him shaking. I close the closet door and yell “ok, you have to the count of 5 to come out before I rip you a new functioning butthole” as I flipped open my switch blade.

“1.....2....5!” and I see Mineta and Sero dash out of their hiding spots “You pieces of shit WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM!?”

“WE CAN EXPLAIN! WE-”

“SHUT UP! GET OUT!” I yelled waving my switch blade.

They leave and I shut my door in anger. 

I showered and dressed, feeling a bit fucked up over everything and checked if anything was taken, nothing is missing so I opened my box and took out my fresh supply of feminine hygiene and to my horror, Midnight added a box of condoms with a note that said ‘nothing against the rules for having some stress-relieving fun, be safe!’. I think oh damn really? but then I look at all my options and think nah, these boys ain’t worth my virginity even if I’m getting casual with Tokoyami. I put them away and have my down time, I don’t want to face anybody because of this whole mess. I wait for everyone to go into their rooms so I can eat in peace, as I’m chopping my cucumber, Tokoyami walks in.

“Hey Ita~”

“Oh jeez you scared me!”

“Sorry! It’s just that I heard what happened”

“oh.... yea” I said stressed as I ate some cucumber.

“Are you ok?”

“Yea but I don’t know why my room?” I said grabbing a disposable bowl from the cabinet to put my fruit in “I thought you guys trusted me enough not to seek for truths.”

“I do! But I’m going to fill you in on what they saw.” He then tells me everything and I get mortified.

“You saw my under the bed storage too!” I said as I got red and hid my face “how embarrassing!”

“I mean it didn’t look like much but like, why do you have so much gauze and a fancy back massager? Thats what I want to know.”

“Oh um thats not gauze or a back massager... It’s....” I said as I leaned in to whisper what they actually are.

“Oh?....Ohhhhh!...” he said getting flustered “I mean if it’s stimulation you want, I can be of service” as put his hand on my butt.

“That’s very erm- generous of you but I’m not ready to have those strong feelings” I said as I caressed his face “I’m scared that I’m going to get hurt or get used if I let myself be exposed like that, I’m still too young to have a sexual partner and so are you.”

He muzzled up to me “Sorry I pushed myself like that Ita, I understand now”

I held him closer “I’m glad that you’re considerate of my feelings, but that doesn’t mean what we’ve been doing is out of the question~” I said as I traced his beak with my knuckle. We spent the night together in soft and playful caressing and kissing in my room with the usual teleporting him to his room in the morning, pretending nothing happened the night before. I go in the bathroom to do my thing and the song to bop to was Neon Trees- Everybody Talks and I proceed to shave my peach fuzz.

“I love this song but what in the actual fuck are you doing Palma-san?” questioned Kaminari

“I’m shaving my face, duh”

“Girls do that too?!” exclaimed Mineta.

“Yea thats how girls manage to have smooth skin on their faces” I said as I move on to my upper lip.

“Wow thats so cool Palma-san!” Midoriya said with admiration “I wish I had enough facial hair to shave.”

I prepare the Texas Smash of roasts for this broccoli on this day “Well maybe if you spent less time watching Blues Clues, puberty would probably hit you finally.”

The bathroom explodes with that roast of the decade! I get high fives and chest bumps from the Baku-squad and Midoriya never really recovered from that roast.

“Oh my gosh Palma-san, you’re a riot to be around!” said Kirishima wiping the tears from laughing too hard away “a true honorary bro!”

I finish up my routine and left the bathroom shortly after then the boys started talking.

“What a gal! Iida when are you gonna make a move?” said Tokoyami “better say it soon or I’m swooping in.”

“I’m not worried about it” said Iida confidently “she’s not going to get wandering eyes or lips. Her number one thing is her training and studies.”

Tokoyami, fully remembering the last few nights they’ve spent groping and kissing, gives a face of doubt “Erm if you say so Iida-kun, she can’t be tamed so easily...she has provoking thoughts and feelings about intimacy.”

Everyone shuts off the water and looks at Tokoyami, “Excuse me but how do you know about her feelings and intimacy?” asked Aoyama.

Tokoyami realized he fucked up started to panic a bit “well... uh you know we’ve been spending a lot of time together in the evenings just talking about stuff...”

“Are you saying that you’ve been in her room with her...after lights out?! just talking?” Mineta said putting 2 and 2 together “it kinda looks like you’ve been sneaking through the secret garden at midnight, tasting forbidden fruits!”

Meanwhile I get my ass in the kitchen for my coffee and I hear the gasp of boys from the kitchen and wonder if everything was alright. But I didn’t really care because I had to head out for some weapons review with my squad for out quiz on Tuesday. What happened after I left is that the boys found out partly of Tokoyami’s and mine nightly talks. The boys wait for me to come back to confront me about it.

“Oh hello fellas! whats poppin?”

“Oh you know, just chilling, talking about stuff” said Mineta stressing on the last part.

“Cool, any y’all wanna-”

“WE KNOW ABOUT YOUR QUALITY TIME WITH TOKOYAMI!” blurted out Midoriya.

Play it cool, maybe he didn’t tell them everything “you mean the talks we have about life questions and feelings? What about them?”

“It is true that there’s kissing and groping involved?” asked Iida like he was upset with me.

“Yea, once by accident. It was just an quick peck on my bottom lip, I didn’t kiss back or have done anything that could’ve been lewd or intimate with him.”

“But it was still a kiss that he took while you were alone!” said Iida with aggressive chops.

“IF YOU HAVE SUCH A PROBLEM WITH ME ABOUT IT, WHY DON’T YOU JUST KISS ME!”

Everyone gasped and I recollected myself to stand by my feelings, theres no way I’d let them cuck me! Then Kaminari comes up to me and holds me close and went in for the kiss then chickened out and just gave a peck on the cheek.

“You fucking pussy ass bitch, cheek pecks are for grandmas that bake you cookies!” I said wiping my cheek “I have so much liberty to do much more explicit things but honestly, none of you have shown me the type of intimacy I want. So if we’re all done here, I’m hungry and I want some fast food, I was gonna ask who wants to come with me but it seems like yall too busy fighting over shit that doesn’t matter so I guess I’m ridin’ solo on this one.” 

I stomped to my room to get my keys and wallet and teleported out with my room locked. While I took my solo ride to McDonalds to buy $15 worth of food, Iida went to Aizawa sensei to tell him about my shenanigans.

“Kid, why are you so concerned about her?”

“Because she’s endangering herself with these promiscuous actions!”

“She’s allowed to do all this and way more. Also she’s technically not my student to look after, not that she needs it”

“What do you mean?”

“There was a huge mix up with her file information and as of now, she’s going to her proper dorms beginning of 2nd year.”

“But what about-”

“Look, you wouldn’t say all this if you saw her standing in the program. She’s number 1 international student, number 3 in her class, number 5 in the district wide 1-A in her program and if she was in our program... a close 2nd.”

“I see.... but is what she’s doing really acceptable?”

“Yes, but also lets keep a close eye on her emotions, she has a doctor’s note that she has to practice mindfulness and lower her stress.”

They both hear me teleport back and run back to my room.

“I better go and-”

“It’s best if you don’t, let her seek you out at her own pace.”

Iida walks out to the commons room and sees everyone with concerned and worried faces.

“what did sensei say?” asked Todoroki.

“He said to leave her alone until she’s ready to talk about things” he said shifting his gaze to her room “she’s not doing anything wrong, we’re the ones in the wrong by intruding in her personal space.”

Everyone kind of lingers near her room to listen to what she’s doing, but all they hear is rustling of food wrappers and soft weeping with the lights off. Little to their knowledge, she saw something so heartbreaking on their social media that it broke her into seeking the numbing comfort of the flask in her vanity. Right under their noses, she had slipped into silent depression and the next few days were going to be painful to live through. Nobody really noticed but Mimi and Jin did and they tried their best to let themselves be available to be a non-problematic source of support. But the numbness held me back to really seek them out or Midnight. Putting on the mask of ‘everything is fine’ was getting hard to maintain and I’ve pushed away all of Iida’s and Tokoyami’s invitations for comfort or accompanying. I didn’t even have the energy to change out my wilting flowers or go buy fresh ones, I was losing myself and I was getting scared. One week has passed and I was completely shut in for the weekend, no extra training scheduled, homework done and no desire to leave my room.

“Hey Iida-kun, did you invite Palma-san to our water training today?” asked Kaminari “it’s a bit late and she isn’t up yet.”

“She doesn’t want to talk, no matter what I’ve been trying” said Iida as he walked down the stairs to meet up with the others “maybe she’ll come around this weekend.”

Everyone went to the pool to do training and I didn’t know when I woke up and didn’t see anybody. I took this as time to shape up a bit as my drinking was making me feel terrible and I needed to work on new techniques. I pack my training bag and headed to the padded room at school with Muffin 2.0. I do my thing and start to feel better as I’m getting a sweat going, then I hear splashing and hollering over my music. I levitate up to the window that faced the pool and saw everyone there, they didn’t invite me I thought and felt hurt all over again. I slowly floated down like a deflated balloon and curled up in a ball to cry.

“Itati, I sense your distress, do you want me to contact someone?”

“No don’t! I’m alright!”

“Now calling Midnight.....she didn’t answer the phone but I sent her a message with your location and state of distress.”

That made me feel worse and I just stayed in my ball form as I idly floated around and bounced off the walls, as I do when I’m upset. Midnight came running in 10 minutes later in the padded room and gasped at my state of being.

“Oh sweetie! What happened?!”

“I don’t want to talk about it!”

She wanted to talk me down from the ceiling and then heard the splashing and hollering from the pool. She then figured it out.

“Is it because they didn’t include you? You love swimming.”

I float down to her and I explain what I’ve gone through. She sat next to me and listened until I was done explaining.

“...so now I feel more hurt but I know it’s all my doing on this one. I don’t want to feel this way anymore.”

Midnight gave me a hug “You can’t catch a break huh? Lets get you back in the dorms and washed up so we can talk about some mindfulness.”

“Ok but umm” I said as I turned my head to the door “I don’t want to get seen by them, I don’t think I’ll be able to hold myself together if they see me.”

“I’ll shield you and shoo them away if they get too close, I promise they won’t bother you on our walk to the dorms.”

We start our walk with Muffin 2.0 carrying my things, we get close to the pool deck and I lower my head into the collar of my jacket to hide myself. Midnight’s shielding didn’t divert Iida’s sharp gaze from Palma’s pink tracksuit and her rhinestoned training bag. He ran out the gate and called out to her.

“Ita? Ita?! are you alright?”

“Tenya please, she doesn’t want to be seen by you right now.”

“But what happened? I-”

“It’s a lot to repeat right now, please give her space, she’s not in the best mental state right now to be bothered.”

Iida stands there as Midnight and Palma walk away with Muffin 2.0 following behind toward the dorms. Midnight helped by getting me back on my regime and scheduling out my week to include meditation and lessen my social media time. And I was slowly coming back to my usual self but I didn’t tell anybody what I did during that week. 

-Thursday, in Homeroom-

“Matsui, Oleshin, Palma....may I have a word with you three outside?” said Diya firmly with his arms crossed.

We got scared and our minds raced with possibilities of what we could be in trouble for. We get to the hallway where sensei was and we were sweating bullets.

“You aren’t in trouble, lets get that out of the way” he said and we instantly exhaled in relief “the school asked me to ask you three if you’d do something for culture week thats coming up. Their reasoning is that we’ve never had international students from Korea, Mexico nor Russia.”

“Oh I see!” I spoke up “they want us to get extra and educate on our home cultures.”

“This is my chance to wear my fur hats!” Mimi perked up “and not wear pants!”

“YOU’RE RIGHT! I can sport all traditional robes!” said Jin with sudden excitement.

“I’ll take that as a yes, it’s in 2 weeks and I’ll be giving you more info about it when they give me a full plan.”

I feel astronomically better but that homesickness is still there. We plan out our dress up outfits and what to talk about through out the week. I hid this from everyone outside the program as it was pleasant surprise and I wanted everyone to understand my roots better.   

-End Chapter 11-
