#it's been like 4 years since I've posted mha I think

[crosshatchedaces]

Just a couple of manly buddies comparing strengths!

[myheroblogs]

Yoichi and All For One are IDENTICAL TWINS (and what it means...)

Okay, I know this acc has kinda been dead for over a year or two by now and I haven't exactly caught up with MHA, I only started reading the last 3-4 chapters, and I wasn't planning to revive this acc after being inactive for so long, but I discovered something that I CAN'T keep quiet about.

In the newest chapter, further detail on Yoichi and AFO's backstory is revealed (Yes! The chapter I've been waiting for!), and surprisingly, AFO and Yoichi are TWINS! I think very few people really thought of the concept, so it was unexpected in general.

I assumed they're fraternal twins, because while they're twins, the anime showed them having different eye colors... (Yoichi has green eyes and AFO has red eyes)

...Until I realised that isn't actually possible.

Because TTTS (twin to twin transfusion), can only occur in IDENTICAL TWINS.

In other words, yes, Yoichi and AFO aren't just twins, they're IDENTICAL TWINS. Anime may be wrong about eye colors again (like how they were for Iida's).

And while it's both unexpected and funny to think about all this (I mean, c'mon, that means Yoichi could've had the exact same face as his brother-), a lot of people may have missed the very BIG implication that this has.

Remember, identical twins share the exact same genetic makeup. After all, they are basically what should've been one person but got split into two somewhere in the early process.

But aren't y'all forgetting...

...that QUIRKS are also genetic?

If AFO and Yoichi are identical twins the entire time, with the EXACT SAME GENETICS, then that would mean that the quirks they have, would be identical as well. Because quirks are also genetic.

All For One and One For All are the SAME QUIRK by nature.

You may be wondering, "if they're the same quirk, why do they seem to function differently?" Yes, OFA can pass itself on, AFO can't, etc.

Well, while they are identical twins, they did suffer through TTTS, with Yoichi as the donor twin.

This probably messed a lot with Yoichi's development, and thus, his quirk. After all, while identical twins, are well, identical, a lot of factors can change how their genetics are expressed (some are expressed more than others). TTTS would've been a big one for AFO and Yoichi.

Notice when looking at OFA's functions (minus the stockpile), it's a significantly weaker version of AFO? AFO can just take and give through close contact with another person. For the transfer to even work for Yoichi, he has to transfer through DNA (blood, or eating hair??), and the only way it can even store quirks if said person inherited the quirk and passed it on like hot potato. I wouldn't even be surprised if Yoichi's quirk could only story a certain number of quirks.

The functions of Yoichi's original quirk got so messed up, it had to evolve into being able to pass itself on for it to even function itself. So much so that literally no one realised he had a quirk, maybe even Yoichi himself until after his death.(Im in the camp that Yoichi died passing on the quirk and it was Kudou who discovered the transfer ability and made the plan to defeat AFO)

So yeah, Bakugo was correct about OFA being the same as AFO all along. Except he was wrong about it being due to AFO creating OFA. It's actually because the original quirk holders were identical twins, meaning the quirks they have would also be identical. But things happened, which caused the quirks to work differently from each other.

EDIT: As another addition to this post, this also explains why OFA and AFO are so intricately linked, that the two users can start seeing into the other's vestige realm. To the point that when they both come into contact, it merges their vestige plains into one. Or perhaps, it's actually two quirks temporarily merging into one.

Since identical twins are basically one split into two, then two identical quirks having contact with each other is the same as two merging back into one again.

Izuku Midoriya agere head cannons! ^_^

recently i've been getting back into mha sooo,,,, here are some little izuku headcannons!! (i will be doing cg izu in another post but for now, have the little guy hehe) . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁

ᯓ★ he is both an age regressor and caregiver! Possibly a little lean but it depends how he's doin mentally ᯓ★ when he's small, his headspace ranges from about 2 to 6 but usually falls between 4-5 ᯓ★ his main reasons for regressing are all the problems caused by all the bullying when he was growing up and finding out he was quirkless, crushing his dreams at such a young age. And the constant fighting in wars with villans and such, when in UA. Sometimes he just regresses to get the weight of the world off his shoulders for a couple hours. ᯓ★ found about his regression in the first year of being in UA from mumblings of coping mechanism during therapy. but he didn't really understand or think about it until kaminari was being pretty open about being a regressor himself one eday, so, Izuku being Izuku went down a rabbithole of researching and found it to be a great coping mechanism for himself! ᯓ★ when he's regressed, he prefers to be called "Izu" or "Zuzu" by his close friends who aren't his cg but still know he regresses! ᯓ★ speaking of cg's, he has a couple. Because I like katsudeku, I think that Katsuki is his main cg!! His other main ones are Todoroki and possibly Aizawa ᯓ★ when little, he calls Katuski either "Kacchan" or if he's really small sometimes he'll slip out a "dada". He likes to call Todoroki either "Todo", "Roro" or "Roki". As for Aizawa, usually just a little "Zawa" ᯓ★ Besides his main cg's, most of class 1A likes to care for Izu when he's small and absolutely love it since he's just such a little sweetheart! but kirishima, ochaco, momo, sero and Iida spend the most time with small izu ᯓ★ his love for All Might only grows when small! He just loves to watch All might documentaries, movies, little youtube clips. Dont even get me started on the amount of all might little space gear he would have hehe! paci's, decorated bottles and sippies, onesies, plushies, teethers, absolutely everything! ᯓ★ he's an absolute angel for the most part! especially when around the ages of 3-6 loves to cuddle, always smiley and giggly, just a joy to be around!! howeverrr, when he slips tinier than around 3, he can be a little sleepy, leading him to be fussy ᯓ★ loves to play hero games with his friends and cg's, "saving" them, usually pretending to be all might. ᯓ★ because i headcannon izuku to be autistic, i think he stims a lot more when hes regressed!! he loves to rock side to side and back and forth the most! ᯓ★ he also tends to babble nonsense, just complete babababa and all his cg's can do is just sit there and nod while he has a full conversation with them in baby ᯓ★ his favourite pet/nicknames (and the ones only katuski and shoto are allowed to call him) are baby, sweetie, honey/hun, sweet boy, bunny, bubba, cutie, dear, dearest, little love and munchkin! but everyone else can use little one, buddy, kiddo, things like that hehe thats it for now!! i will definitely be making more little izu posts bc hes just so cute!! i will also be posting little izu stories on my ao3 if anyone is interested :33 bye bye lovelies, hope you have a wonderful day or night!! 💗

[haleigh-sloth]

Hello! So I am very late to the “meeting” haha, you can dismiss this since it’s a bit out of the blue. But I wanted to ask if you ever shared your thoughts for the ending of MHA? I kind of fell off of it after seeing spoilers, but then looking back into it, I didn’t really get to see the op of some meta blogs I followed since they’ve posted a lot since then. That and when trying to search up “ending” or meta, there was just a lot of vague posts that did not help. Even then, it seems like everyone had a united agreement that know one liked it (don’t blame them either. Toga’s death sucks along with Shigaraki, it’s vague about Spinner and Compress being or not being in jail, and Dabi unknown, but hey that’s better than nothing. Like to think he and Shoto are able to eat soba together even if Dabi is or is not under house arrest) 😅 Did your friends Redphox, Transhawks, and Hamliet ever share their thoughts? Or other meta blogs you know? Or did everyone kind of just drop it…

Sorry for the late response. I've mostly disconnected for my sanity but I can answer.

All my friends did share their thoughts yes. You can probably search their blogs and find them. But also a lot of us just....dropped it.

The manga went so south so fast in such a shocking and unexpected way that there wasn't any time to process it. Truly a horrible experience that I don't ever want to deal with again lol. I sound dramatic but really, 4 years of my life being so emotionally attached to these characters and the dynamics and it all meaning nothing in the end. It really did hurt!

The re-readability is completely gone because of the ending. It's not even a mediocre "passable" ending, it's just....the kind of ending I pretend doesn't exist. I really do, except when I'm forced to remember it.

I think a lot of us shared our thoughts as we could and then just dropped it for our emotional health because we all were going through it pretty bad. And even still it's hard to even look at content for the series.

I think what hurts the most is the recent visuals used for the OP for the 7th season. Like...putting the kids with their villains, showing them happy, or the "what could have been", or just showing them TOGETHER, and for what? For nothing, and that sucks bad.

I'm trying to get to where I am with every other series I've been attached to and hated the ending, where I literally just forget the ending exists and it doesn't bother me. I'll get there one day, which is why I'm not getting rid of my merch or my volumes. I love the characters and 420 chapters of the story. That's enough for me, I just need time. Sorry idk if this answered your question. If I had it in me I'd search for posts and link them here but I definitely don't have it in me to do that. Thanks for the ask though :)

New art challenge: post all of your souyo tf art :D

Honestly, not sure I can as I have so many of them, and a lot of them are old sketches I'd want to clean up before sharing, but of the ones I've made over the years, here are the most finished ones, ordered into a somewhat organized set

Neko Effect

a series of drawing from mostly 2020-2021 involving a fanfic I also wrote (and kinda left of an infinite hiatus. sorry bout that), involing the two of them getting cursed with a rare new status effect "Neko" which seemingly slowly turned them into cats. Yu adjusts to it pretty well, as he is want to do, while Yosuke has his more panicked response that is both super cute and what makes him a way too fun TF target.

2. Birthday Gift

what started as a birthday drawing of Yosuke for his B-day in 2021 kinda turned into this silly little sequence. of them turning into cats (with me as a cat playing an extra, cuz why not). I think this one was set in the Quirk AU I made? short version, basically going into the TV world and conquering your shadow gave you a super power similar to the quirks of MHA, but with the fun added twist that they were usually based in some way of the persons insecurities.

iirc, Yosuke has a power called Malleable, which was basically shapeshifting, but without the ability to directly control it. or at least, the people around him and his environment seem to have a greater control over what form he takes than he himself does. Yu has a power called Mirror, the ability to copy other people's power, holding only 1 at a time, and usually without the downside. for copying Yosuke's Malleable, Yu is still quite susceptible to outside influences, though he does have a small bit better at controlling it while he has it.

a lot of my random, usually less explicable TFs of them can prolly be tossed into this camp somewhere.

3. Commissioned Colorings

so, I have literally hundreds of sketches and doodles, all posted to my Patreon as one of my rewards. I draw 1 doodle (more closely a finished line art) a day and post it to my Patron discord, and every month post that months collection of doodles to Patreon for record keeping. I have been doing this more or less every day since 2021, so that's nearly a thousand sketches that can range from more tf sequences like the dogsuke sequence i recently colored, to more general ideas for one of my game projects I work on. if a patron likes a specific daily doodle and wants it specifically finished up, like these above, they can commission me at a significantly reduced price to take the drawing from a doodle to a completed work. because otherwise its left to my whims if I feel like coloring them

4. Seriously, so many doodles

seriously, sooooo many doodles. here's just a few i feel like sharing, plus one of my livestream sketch sessions (oh yeah, I do a free sketch request livestream every 1st sunday of the month over on twitch btw) which got a monkey-yu and batsuke, plus a chibi sketch of them being silly.

and that's just art of Souyo being cute and silly and tfable. i also have a fair amount of just Yu and or Yosuke solo getting tf'd into stuff in general. (you may have stumbled into one of my hyper fixations X3)

Hope i passed your challenge ;3

Silver Talks AniManga (22/09/24)

Post is a day late cause I was catching up to Magilumiere and ended pretty late so I just went to bed instead of finishing up the post and going even later. It was well worth staying up late cause it is THAT good. Looooots of yappin on this one, not just for that but some of the other stuff too. Buncha stuff ending next week too so more yapping then

blue - finale/completed green - new series/new to me pink - catching up

Anime

Plus-Sized Elf Ep12 (Finale)

I was going back and forth between 5 and 4 but ended up here. If it was normal lenght instead of short like this it would've ended up as a 4 for sure and maybe even a 3. But at the end of the day the show knew what it is. Just an ecchi show that served as a tool to promote the manga. They never did anything fancy and the animation was always the bare minimum with a lot of stills and pans. It being uncensored was a surprise for sure but there's not much more to say about it. There is only one joke and it's "damn this girl is thicc as hell", but it's never used in a negative way cause the author is clearly into it so it's not terrible. Tho it is also kinda like danberu with it giving recommendations for a buncha easy exercises anyone can do to lose weight and the such, which I didn't know was a thing cause I only ever saw the gags getting posted so that was cool to see. But at the end of the day, if you're interested in the series you'd be better off reading it anyway since synedoche's art is better

Manga

Yoshida Lemon Drops Ch1

This actually came out last month (and scanlations like 2 weeks ago) but I only now decided that I wanted to start it. I thought it was monthly because of that but apparently it's up to chap 4, there's just not been any more scanlated chaps, oof... But anyway, that was a decent little first chap just setting up the premise. I'ts a rom com between the most popular girl at uni and a guy that's not sure what he's doing at uni in the first place. They used to be together in a club in HS. The twist is that she confesses right at the end of first chap instead of it taking a billion years, it was pretty cute too. The artstyle might look familiar to you and that's because Wakaki has done many a series before including, his biggest one, TWGOK and more recently 365 Days to the Wedding which is getting an anime next season. I've never read or watched any of their other series but I know they're pretty well liked by people who have so I decided to give this new one a try. Hopefully scanlators pick it back up again soon, Mega just told me that the people who did this ch1 also did all of 365 so there's hope 🙏

Magilumiere Co. Ltd. Ch1 - 125

I've been meaning to read this for a long time and finally decided to do it now. Anime is starting on a couple weeks so I'm right on time tehe But anyway, the first chap was really good. I was already expecting good things cause my buddy Mega has always praised it since the start but I was still surprised. I wish every new series on WSJ could have first chapters this good. They did a great job introducing the mains and giving us a little taste of how the world works, plus the art is great, the style really reminds me of early MHA which is a big compliment. I'll go back to reading now and then give some more thoughts when I finish catching up (or if something comes up meanwhile.) Alright I caught up with it and all I can say is, it's peak, it's just peak. As I was reading it I caught myself putting it in the same headspace as Kaiju. Maybe cause they're both Jump+ titles? Maybe cause they're both different takes on their respective genres? I'm not sure but I did. And as much as I like Kaiju, and I like it quite a bit, it feels like Magilumiere blows it out the water. While I like the action scenes in Kaiju a lot more cause it has better coreography and a lot flashier scenes, everything else about Magi is just better, including the art. I think the biggest difference between the two is how much better the pacing is in this compared to it, but the characters also feel a lot more fleshed out unlike in Kaiju where that's only the case for like 4 or 5 of them. The only exception to this is Koshigaya but she's going to get a little arc soon so yeah. Me and Mega discussed it a bit before I went to bed, after catching up, and we think it'll still have 30-40 more chaps so I'll be looking forward to reading this for the next few months. Anyway I'm rambling a lot and still feel like I forgot some stuff I wanted to say but I'll stop here lol

Just one last thing I wanted to add, you can really tell how much the author loves and respects the genre which is refreshing to see. I wish other magical girl series that try to put a "twist" on the genre were half this good. They really do get it

Hakutaku Ch1

Well that was alright, I guess. Certainly the weakest out of the 3 in this serialization round. I wasn't expecting much out of it so can't say I was disappointed but wasn't impressed either. The art was good at least, the artist worked as an assistant for Black Clover before. It's about a boy who gamefies most aspects of his life meeting a girl that wants to make games and her convincing him to make a game with her. This felt a lot like a one shot to me but it's a serialization, so we'll see how the next few chaps go but I won't be expecting too much

A03 Questions Tag Game

I got tagged by @coffincrows

I tag: @theroyalspiderart and well, anyone who wants to do this (my mind has drawn a blank)

1 – How many works do you have on AO3?

Okay, so, I actually have two ao3 accounts. One I don't use anymore and one I do currently. So I'm gonna count both of them

In total, it's at least 41. (14 on my current account, 24 on the old one, and there's 3 fics I've written that have since been orphaned that I remember having written)

2 – What's your total AO3 word count?

Roughly 150,549, but that's only from the unorphaned works, so it's gonna be a few thousand more, probably more like 152-155k

3 – What fandoms do you write for?

Currently just cotl, but I've written for a bunch of fandoms over the years, like mcyt, tgcf, mha, and a couple other fandoms, although those are the ones I've posted to ao3. Wattpad, where I started tho? Lot more lmao

4 – What are your top five fics by kudos?

I plead the fifth

5 – Do you respond to comments?

Yes!! I try to respond to every single comment I get, I appreciate and love my commenters so much <3

6 – What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I don't remember the name of it, but it was a fic from my old account. I typically don't do angsty endings, so it's rare for me to do

7 – What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Pretty much all of them aldhsha except a few with more ambiguous endings (sorry I'm being so vague)

8 – Do you get hate on fics?

Not that I've seen, no.

9 – Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I've written smut like. 4-5 times in my life (default poses in asexual), and only 2 of them are published to ao3. I have NO CLUE what "kind" of smut it is, but people on both works have described it as "tender" so ig that'll work

10 – Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

I do nawt like crossovers much, so I don't write them. Closest I do is aus based off or set in another media's universe, but there's no character meetups

11 – Have you ever had a fic stolen?

I hope not! I have no clue tho

12 – Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! My biggest fic on my old account has been translated a least once or twice (with my permission)

13 – Have you ever co-written a fic?

Not on ao3, no, but I'd like to try it again one day

14 – What's your all-time favorite ship?

Hmmmmmmm. Idk actually, my favorites shift with time. Currently it's narilamb, but it was ineffable husbands a few months ago. We'll see how it changes again in the future

15 – What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Got a couple wips for good omens and mtp but idk if I'll ever finish them, they be sitting

16 – What are your writing strengths?

I've been told my characterizations have been a strong point while reading, but I wouldn't count that as a WRITING strength. I think, to me, my writing strength is setting up an environment

17 – What are your writing weaknesses?

Pacing and endings. I struggle with them every single time.

18 – Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I love it! I wish wish I knew more than English so I'd be comfy doing it myself (bc relying on online translators doesn't seem like a good idea slshs)

19 – First fandom you wrote for?

On ao3? I think mha?? Not sure I must have started posting ao3 fics over 5 years ago at this point (first fandom I wrote for period? Creepypasta fandom, on quotev.)

20 – Favorite fic you've written?

As of rn, maybe "of Harvest, of Celebration, and of Rest". I was so proud of it when I finished, and I love it :]

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Our Soulmate Academia (BnHA (MHA)) - 355

Pain (Banana Fish (manga!verse)) - 280

Crush (SuperWolf (SPN/Teen Wolf (MTV))) - 256

A Gift (Avengers (MCU)/Daredevil (Netflix)) - 219

Best Laid Plans (Banana Fish (manga!verse)) - 203

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I always respond because it seems like the polite thing to do especially now that people don't leave as many comments as they used to back the 00's on ff.net

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

You Can't Stay Blind - (SuperWho (SPN/Doctor Who)) - the Eleventh Doctor runs into Crowley who's wearing a too familiar face

In the Pasture of a Vale (Supernatural) - Dean runs into Adam and Ben five years post-season 5 (written back in 2010)

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

 I think I always end up with a kind of mixed emotion ending like Best Laid Plans or Our Soulmate Academia, so it's difficult to remember the truly happy ones. The most recent happy ending would be The Mystery in the Fog (ACD!Holmes) where Holmes and Watson end up at the same secret wedding of an underground queer club they're both members of unbeknownst to each other and have some revelations

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Sometimes I do. The most infamous incident was the time I wrote a fic speculating on who Castiel's vessel might have been before I got to Jimmy's episode in my binge watch back in the day. The reviewer went into gruesome detail on how I was going to burn in Hell for my fic. It was unreal. I just deleted the fic and then went on to write several more SPN fics as you do.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I've written smut a handful of times for fics and more often than that for RP since that's part of the RP culture I fell into in university. Most of my smut fics have been orphaned now, but the one that remains is Swallow My Fang at Night Island (Interview with the Vampire (AMC)) I approach smut like I approach fight scenes so I can keep track of the flow of action. I keep my own personal kinks out of it and try to write a scene I think the audience would look for instead

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I've written 15 crossovers. I enjoy them tbh. In terms of plot, the craziest one I wrote was Distortion (BBC Sherlock/My Life in Film) where Jones was hired to play Moriarty and things get way too real. In terms of titles crossed over, the craziest one is probably The Hokage (Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle/Naruto)

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Yes, ages ago. It's why I'm my own beta reader or Kitty Britpicks me because I can trust her

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

I had some requests but I've never been alerted to the final products

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

My brother and I regularly cowrote fics together when I was in high school and he was in middle school. If you ever read a Trigun script-based crack fic in the 00's with the phrase "Love and peace! Doves and geese! Change the world!" or "Another carnival ride with cotton candy," that was us.

14. What’s your all time favourite ship?

I don't think I actually have one because I'm a multi-shipper and I have so many favorites. That said, it might be inuyasha/Kagome since I always had an Inuyasha fic in rotation (usually more than one though) from 2001 - 2007 or so. Unfortunately they've all been lost to time. According to my AO3 relationship toggle in the filters sidebar, it's Destiel (7) and Devil's Minion (7)

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

I have a BnHA fic from before we learned what Hagukure's powers were where she sent Class-A and Aizawa back in time to Yagi's high school years to do a kind of Tenchi in Love (1996) type of plot where they had to stop a time traveler from murdering Yagi. I wrote quite a bit of it but it stalled on me when Midoriy and Nana interacted and I wasn't completely sure how to get that to work

16. What are your writing strengths?

The most consistent thing I get complimented on are my fight sequences, which is why it's sad I lost all my IY fics because I wrote so many fights for them

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

My memory is a sieve and some of the holes are too big

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I've done it before because I was a weeb and it was a trend in the 00's. Not sure I'd do it again now that I've matured past that.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Technically fairytales. I retold Cinderella when I was so little my mom had to write it down for me because I couldn't write yet. I drew pictures to go with the narration

20. Favourite fic you’ve written?

The Land Across the Sea (Black Clover/Boruto) - Boruto ride a tsunami to Clover Kingdom and the knights have to take him back home, which is also Yami's homeland.

I got the idea for this fic when a friend and I were talking about what we'd want the Black Clover movie to be about when it was first announced. Then I took my idea of Yami getting to return to his homeland and made it a crossover because I like the idea of Yami and Naruto knowing each other from back in the day.

Self Indulgent OC Fic Sneak Peak

The thing that follows lives in her dreams, and as far as she knows, that is the only place that it can hurt her.

Well, maybe not literally, she thinks to herself, spindly legs trudging wet sand, bare feet so heavy that there may as well be weights tied to her ankles. Maybe it’s just a stupid illusion, a stupid Dreamscape Monster Come to Half-Life. This is a dream, she reassures herself. And Hinoka knows it's just a dream because of the feeling in the air. Like she's living on the static channel on the TV. And the thing that follows sounds the most staticky of all things that follow in her dreams. 

It's always the same thing when it shows up to stalk her—it's the long hallway. The doors parallel to one another, unable to be opened no matter how she tugs or twists the knobs. The long walk in search of a soft place to fall, hopping creaks and cracks, clearing any and all targets on her back. Clearing targets even though it never fully washes off. The Thing That Follows seems always to see it no matter what. 

It’s tall, whatever it is, and walks on two legs, based on the rhythm. It moves at a snail’s pace, but never far behind. She’s sure she could see its face if she bothered to look back. She never dares to turn around to look it in the eyes. 

It smells like smoke in the dreamworld. Smoke and flames and her childhood, of sweet melon and honey, in the faintest of ways. Maybe other people's dreams smell different, Hinoka thinks to herself as she trudges, no longer with the energy to run. Maybe they smell like their childhoods and less like smoke. 

She walks fast in her dream instead, as fast as she can, away from the following creature, listening to her own steps, her bare feet leaving behind footprints in the hallway, only to fade quickly, like ocean waves have come to wipe them away. 

The hand belonging to The Thing That Follows reaches for her.

Sometimes she swears she hears the ocean. 

The Thing That Follows breathes softly on the back of her neck.

Sometimes she swears she hears sweet voices long unheard, unsettled, calling her name—

Hinoka.

Hinoka.

Hinoka.

“Hinoka.” 

The voice that calls her name is like the rush of waves as they draw from shore for an impending tsunami.

"Wake up." 

With a gasp, the black haired girl’s eyes fly open, her breath caught in her throat. Her vision is blurry, as with every other very early morning. But when it clears, she's greeted with the wood ceiling, the spindle-thread thin sliver of light of sunrise painting her room less black and more very dark purple. She shifts, turning, only to see…

Oh.

"U-Uncle Kagero?" She asks, slowly sitting up. He glowers down at her.

HI HELLO This is a sneak peak of a new project that I've been wanting to do for years. Essentially, I created my main My Hero Academia oc when I was about 15 or 16 and since MHA has been one of my main hyperfixations for the last ~2-3 years (maybe 4 idk) I decided to finally just. Write some self indulgent oc fanfic

When will this project be posted? No clue. Will it be posted soon? Probably not. Is it canon divergent? Indeed.

I am trying to unravel years worth of self-consciousness and stepping out of my comfort zone so when this fic goes live, I will post it here. Maybe I'll even have a poll to decide on a title idk

SO YEAH i guess this is my way of introducing one of my ocs gxgdkhfkhdy

[theameba1436]

Thank you for the tag @vestigialpersonality <3 This is Wesley, I don't really do much with him anymore since I'm no longer writing things for MHA. Here is a little about him. He is human, but his quirk is snake fang, (When he bites a victim his venom will make them feel anything he does, this could be his emotions, pain extra.) He is 32 years old; he enjoys his own space and is a hero that is undercover within the villain hideout.

His scars are not right BTW he would be covered in scars all over his body and has a scar over his left eye and three scars that run over his chin and lips. So, this was the best I could do.

1) An event that defines your character's past

Abe Parker - it is what it is You're walking on the water that I'm drowning in Thought I heard a whisper, was it just the wind again Or the trail of blood I'm following? (Following, following, following) mm-hm And if I'm the one to blame I guess all that I could say This is the best song I can find for Wesley's past. This song is mostly just the feeling of his past since he mostly just wished to die.

3) How others view them

Cage The Elephant - Cold Cold Cold

Doctor, look into my eyes I've been breathing air, but there's no sign of life Doctor, the problem's in my chest My heart feels cold as ice, but it's anybody's guess

Doctor, can you help me 'cause I don't feel right? Better make it fast before I change my mind Doctor, can you help me 'cause I don't feel right? Better make it fast before I change my mind This song isn't really a good fit for this question. But - it was the best on my playlist for how people see Wesley. Mostly it is here because of the lines saying that he is cold inside. Like he has no feelings.

4) Their closest relationship (platonic or romantic)

Skin and bones David Kushner

I fantasize to feel you like a bullet And all your layers to the fullest But the heavens won't condone it, mm You deceivin', wayward woman You're a false prophet at the pulpit The condition of your soul is erodin'

Wrap me in your skin and bones, yeah, you're electrical Oh, I'm gonna lose control, yeah, as you pull me close Wrap me in your skin and bones, yeah, you're electrical Oh, I'm gonna lose control

As your flatter talk shivers down my spine I hear the Holy One exposin' all the lies Lord, forgive me, I know my flesh needs to die She has the lips red as cherry wine A poisonous kiss, she's part of the swine My salvation won't be sacrificed

I picked this song for Wesley's relationship. His relationship with Dabi would be that of obsession and it would be toxic since Wesley is a hero and Dabi is a villain, and their ways of thinking don't match most of the time. That is until they do.

5) A major fight scene

disturbed - the vengeful one

As I survey the chaos, taking in the lack of raw humanity It's as if the entire world's fallen in love with their insanity Hear the innocent voices scream As their tormentors laugh through all of it No forgiveness for all I've seen A degradation I cannot forget

So sleep soundly in your beds tonight For judgement falls upon you at first light

I picked this song because in the end Wesley gives up being a hero and turns to the side of the villains.

6) End credits song

(Ooh) there's darkness in the distance I'm begging for forgiveness (Ooh) but I know I might resist it, oh

Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time You and I drink the poison from the same vine Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time Hidin' all of our sins from the daylight From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight From the daylight, runnin' from the daylight Oh, I love it and I hate it at the same time

I picked this song for the ending because if I did write a full story with Wesley the ending would be rather sad, and he would most likely regret the choices he picked, and I get that feeling from this song.

Well, that is all for Wesley I plan on doing Vorn next and When I do I will re-post this post with his as well. Thank you for the tag again @vestigialpersonality this was really fun and also hard for me lol

6 Songs - Garrett

I was tagged a few days ago by @dandelion-bride for the 6 Song Ask Game.

So meet Garrett, a human(?) sorlock. I don't typically write about him directly, he's more of a figure who haunts my Durge's past and present. I typically associate him with folkpunk. He'd hate my choices and be mad that I didn't pick out Wagner or Debussy.

Picrew here

I've also done these for The Inevitable Pre-Tadpole (Keres) and Post Tadpole (Rune).

Tagging @vialae @theameba1436 @picathartidae @pantsbutfancy @magmethius and anyone else who is interested

1) An event that defines your character's past

Haunting by The Pogues

For weeks and weeks after, with nerves a disaster Nowhere near that road would I go And from dusk through the night, I would shake with the fright Of the tree that had haunted me so

Flamerule 1477. The lyrics themselves aren't directly correlated to the events themselves, its more about the way that it's written like someone telling a story in a bar about a single terrifying moment that irrevocably changed them as a person. The exact same events when viewed from another perspective would be encapsulated by Mitternacht by E Nomine and is a fic I'm slowly writing.

2) How your character sees themselves

Wonderlust King by Gogol Bordello

I traveled the world Looking for understanding Of the times that we live in Hunting and gathering first-hand information Challenging definitions of sin

Always moving, never staying in one place. Question everything. Find the answers to lost questions. Another apt one would be Michael Martin Murphy's version of Streets of Laredo, if you view him as both the dying cowboy and the man listening to the cowboy's story.

3) How others view them

Selfish Man by Flogging Molly

Walk around me, not before me I'll pretend not to ignore you But I'll compromise if I realize You can do something for me

Admittedly, he probably views himself this way too. He's very self aware.

4) Their closest relationship (platonic or romantic)

Fairytail of New York by The Pogues

Anyone familiar with this song: "Ooooooh. 😐"

Garrett is married, but estranged is putting it politely. Posting a lyrics version of the song instead of just a snippet because the transformation of sentiments is why I picked a Christmas song to define his marriage. The lyrics take a drastic shift at 2:14.

5) A major fight scene I'm choosing to interpret this as his personal boss fight music.

Rose Tattoo by The Dropkick Murphys

A ship that always stays the course An anchor for my every choice A rose that shines down from above I signed and sealed these words in blood

I'm taking a more ominous interpretation of the lyrics. Instead of reminders about treasured memories, when in relation to Garrett it's more of a threat that he will not forget and he will not forgive.

6) End credits song

The Hand You Reach Out Is Empty (As Is Mine) by Ramshackle Glory

We're egalitarians with empty hands Is it justice to split up the dust? We are damned and we'll never earn trust And so we'll betray everything that we can

This was the first song I added to his playlist. Everything about this song encapsulates him perfectly.

[ticklish-n-stuff]

Uhh hello, hope y'all are having a good day :)

I've been feeling very tired because of the medication I've been taking. So if you don't see me post often it's because of that.

Anyways, I mentioned wanting to do the tickletober list thingy this year, and considering how indecisive I can be sometimes when it comes to writing fics I thought i'd ask you guys to send me whatever characters you'd like to see me write for.

For the fandoms I wanna expand a bit so you can send me characters from Project Sekai, Enstars, MHA, Bandori and Demon Slayer* (maybe ill add other fandoms in the future but for now those will do).

Rules are simple:

Send me whatever character you want from those fandoms + one of the corresponding days from the list (you can send multiple reqs. if you want)

If your gonna send multiple characters (like a poly ship) pls try to make it no more than 4, it can be a bit overwhelming writing for multiple characters at the same time.

I'm very open with ships so feel free to send me whichever ones even if it's considered an odd ship (as long as its not incest or illegal im open to it). Can also just be platonic.

I think thats about it. Also keep in mind I probably won't do all the days since I'm going back to college soon.

Soo uhh yeah feel free to go into my inbox and happy friday :]

[bylaudelekha]

i was tagged by @sevarix-writes, thank you for this! looks fun :)

disclaimer: i swear i know what capital letters are my fic titles are just really bad

what's your all time favourite ship?

obviously claudeleth. what did you expect me to say?

how many works do you have on AO3?

i have 13! all for fe3h.. for now ;)

what's your total AO3 word count?

i.. actually didn't know this was a thing before lol 29,375! that is. a very Big number.

what are your top 5 fics by kudos?

for 2021 (and basically all time, since i only joined in february 2021): 5. strawberry dresses and fashion shows: a fluffy yurileth fic i wrote for var's birthday!

4. A Reunion in Abyss: the one (1) fic i wrote for yurileth week day 1

3. A Blind Mercenary: one-shot featuring a blind byleth

2. the dragon awaits: my current wip, featuring a nabatean!byleth and claudeleth

1. The Almyran Sun: my longest fic to date! making up quite literally half of that total word count (also the messiest thing i've ever done but shhh) featuring claudeleth obviously.

what's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

i'll never do this again, but it's a professor of crimson, a deer left behind. can be read as a claudeleth fic for that extra Angst

what's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

right i have three for this one as i am an indecisive little shit. either:

Training and A Confession (fluffy dimivain)

how many years has it been, khalid? (claude and his oc half-sister i made reunite, with obvious minor claudeleth)

A Reunion in Abyss (mentioned above, ends in yurileth kisses)

do you write crossovers?

i haven't yet, but i have a few ideas! no idea how to write them though lol (my multi-fandom brain still goes brr regardless)

have you ever received hate on a fic?

nope! everyone's been super nice so far :)

do you write smut? if so, what kind?

no i don't (and do not wish to), i'm a minor and ace lol

have you ever had a fic stolen?

i hope not? i'm not really sure where and how to check lol

have you ever had a fic translated?

not that i know of! once i know how to write in french and bengali i'll hopefully be able to translate my own though!

have you ever co-written a fic?

i used to beta one of my friend's fics (dee if you're out there-) but i don't think that counts lol, so no i haven't. seems fun though!

what are your writing strengths?

i have no fucking clue. next question.

what are your writing weaknesses?

you might want to sit down, grab a pencil or something. my dialogue always seems very stilted, i'm not good at making scenes flow, characterisation is shitty, pacing jumps everywhere, too much repetition, i literally cannot focus on one wip for my Fucking Life.. there's more but i can't tag this as a long post anymore so. onto the next question!

what are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

i think it's very cool! i've read a few fics like that and it was super interesting. i might give it a go sometime, see if my private school education (they teach us fucking latin here send help) is paying off lol

what was the first fandom you ever wrote for?

i wrote for mha two (?) years ago.... on wattpad..... but we do not speak of those days. only One other person knows of that and they're not even on here anymore, and i deleted my wattpad account so you're never finding me out >:)

what's your favourite fic you've written this year?

i'm not really sure if this fits since it's a wip, but the dragon awaits is so much fun to write! dragonleth is Very Nice to write :) and as much as i bash it, i do have a special place for The Almyran Sun in my heart.... first multi-chapter i ever stuck with and actually completed lol

Tagging:

@indigowallbreaker @umbralstars @sergeanthopeless - no pressure though! - and anyone else who'd want to! please tag me in yours if you end up doing it! would love to see it :D

[savrenim]

This is the second time I've found somebody who got into the mha fandom from Nov 5 within two days of each other, except yours is a reverse reaction XD That OP was someone who understood all the memes EXCEPT "what is a dabi and why is he touya" when Nov 5th first had Dabi trend above the election and all that happened, the rest of us were dying to know the confusion it caused to the non-mha fans and the poor twitter headline writer who had to wonder why a burnt anime boy was trending that day.

hello anon thank you for making my day other five asks below the cut bc this became a Long Post (ur right it's more.... I try to be as considerate as possible to other people on my dash so I've gotten into the habit of readmores for long posts?)

(2) So thank you for sharing your story, even in the form of an insane chunk of tags lol. Some fics updated before canon reveal actually contain crumbs of canon too just because the author goes back and edits it in, usually names since they can't change the entire fic of course. This is the case for Hawks's name, we used to call him "Takahiro Sora(ta)" after a fic first kickstarted the name. But shortened it because birb + sky. And hawk + word that sounds like "hero"

(3) In Dabi's case, it was whatever name related to spring or autumn the author could find, I've seen Haruka used once. (Because the Todoroki sibs are named after seasons, Touya and Shouto are too but vaguely and I forgot which is which.) Their tags are HUGE and I've read so many fics these past 4-5 years, I'll have to get back to you later because not only do I have so many deadlines, but also have to look through them all again 😭 Once you have canon sorted out, do u wanna hear fandom stories?

(4) You really had to go and choose the only two mha characters (Dabi and Hawks, Aizawa is fine) who caused an absolute RIOT in fandom. In so many ways, but we'll stick to one type for now. Dabi??? We been knew who he was, but it actually wasn't his backstory reveal trending that day, it was his name, which was also revealed 100 chapters ago! Just not connected to him. We got EVERYTHING wrong about his backstory, the single thing we got right was the method which was a beloved fandom dream.

(5) And even then some of the "method" caught us off guard, I won't spoil you but boy am I tempted to ramble cause these are all my favs too lol. Hawks? We got everything RIGHT. But in all the worst ways. Every crack theory we had became canon. Everything we thought about his backstory was severely understated or we were outright tricked into thinking it was something else because of how it was drawn. It does NOT help that these two aren't often written accurate and they LIE a lot. Good luck!

(6) Also I would love to know what your osmosis journey has taught you if you're willing to share, it's always funny I want to see if you fell for the same things we did or even the same things other osmosis readers fell for. It shows just how strong fanon becomes XD I could send a really long ask, but decided to send it in parts so you could hide it under a read more, since it looks like you don't like long posts. Also! I can find canon retellings, but how do you feel about canon set fic?

OKAY SO

funny story with (2) actually I have seen something like this happen in the star wars fandom, specifically with Dooku. I read several fics that referred to him as 'Yan Dooku' and there is so much spinoff material that, like, I went 'shrug even though this doesn't appear in the movies it might as well be true' bc it was in multiple fics. and then was brought up in question whether or not that Was His Actual Name and it had gotten into fandom osmosis enough that it made it onto a wiki page it took quite a while for me to convince myself that no.... no this wasn't actually Dooku's name...... canonically he only had one name...... someone had just picked it up and run with it..........

but that's so fun and funny I love it, good job fandom choosing names, that's great

I mean I Do Not Mind Spoilers, I'm already pretty spoiled for this thing and am only going to learn through fandom osmosis and love fandom stories so if you want to give me The True Story Of Trending/ Method, I would love that

also deeply amused that I picked the two most Fandom Rioting characters to love this is GREAT, I would absolutely love any set-in-canon fics mostly, like, 'alternate universe -- no quirks' doesn't interest me very much bc there's less grounding into the things that I find interesting in the setting, but otherwise p much anything goes

alright so the interesting thing with 'things I learned from osmosis' is that you need to understand that I started out this fandom reading a jjk crossover fic where My Fave Character Gojo Who Has Math Powers That Are Ridiculously Overpowered and this fic was 'Gojo Is Reincarnated As Dabi He Keeps His JJK Powers And Just Gets Dabi's Too And Decides Instead Of Being Responsible For The Whole World He'd Rather Just Fuck Around And Have Fun And Kind Of Accidentally Gets Labelled As A Supervillain For This And Doesn't Care And Is Also Adopting Half Of Class 1-A Bc The Teacher Instinct Never Goes Away' but it means that a whole bunch of things that were from the initial osmosis were like.... me knowing the character Gojo and assuming things were him and not BNHA; it took my a few chapters to figure out that Dabi was actually a character and not just the hero/villain name that they decided to give Gojo throwing him into the universe (and also that all the other characters who appeared were actual characters and not OCs)

but anyways some fun weird osmosis things

I at first thought that everywhere having star wars names was 100% just Gojo having fun naming places. the star wars names have come up enough that I'm pretty sure everywhere does have star wars names. this is so weird to me. like I guess if it's set on earth that's a historical reference not copyright infringement but W I L D

I've gotten used to gay canon pairings in a few things and I did legit think Aizawa and Present Mic were married for a little while. I think that's just a popular ship now but a person can dream

given other ridiculous parentage reveals (mostly Dabi) there are a number of fics where All For One is Izuku's father. I am now, like..... 65% convinced this is a fan theory but am leaving a 35% convinced this is canon

I figured out really quickly that Hawks/Dabi is a popular ship, which, like, good for them it's fun with their backstories but then exactly bc of the backstories and the ship, 100% assumed that 'Hawks goes undercover to try to infiltrate the League of Villains' was a contrived reason for them to interact. at this point I'm 95% sure that no that's an actual canon arc not just a fanfic thing

on the opposite end of the spectrum I am fairly sure that Dabi is not the lead singer of a mcr-style emo/punk/rock band but boy did y'all have me going for that one a lot

cannot tell how much the League of Villains are Misunderstood Poor Little Meow Meows who just want to Change Hero Society and Unfortunately Are Somewhat Willing To Murder To Get There and how much they are murdering psychopaths I think it's the latter but it's funny how many fics they seem a lot more willing to be chill in

also having a hard time telling who is currently dead or not as well as whether canon had a Nomu apocalypse arc and canon itself is now in some horrible everyone-barely-surviving setup or if things are more chill there but I hope y'all are having a good time wherever you are

those are most of the ones that I can think of, the rest of the osmosis has mostly been me picking up what the main events of the first few arcs are, general things about how quirks work, I'm fairly certain the reveal that One For All kills you/ages you at an accelerated rate came late enough bc there are a number of fics that are 'Izuku actually has a quirk!' that does not touch that angst at all but yeah out here having a good time mostly

[space-cat-in-a-teacup]

Oh hey thanks for the tag!

1. How many works do you have on ao3?

14! This will change!

2. What's your total ao3 word count?

53,592, which is pretty neat considering most of them are oneshots.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Currently focusing Bungou Stray Dogs! But I dabble in many, having an ongoing My Hero Academia fanfic that has outlasted my fandom presence, and some TMNT works on the way... I'll also probably end up writing

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

"That Awkward Moment When You, Your Class, and Your Worst Enemies Get Stuck in a Timeloop - 691

"In Candlelight" - 75

"The Greatest Problem" - 74

"Case of the Criminal Copycat" - 59

"The Inconveniences of Illness" - 56

5. Do you respond to comments?

No, but I've been thinking of changing that. I really do appreciate the comments left on all my works, and I'd like to make sure people know that I do.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

That's difficult to say, especially since it depends on what kinda angst we're talking about. But if I had to choose, it's between Winner Takes It All or The Wanderer of Hissui- and I'm personally inclined to say the latter since it tells a complete story, while the first is part of a much longer narrative.

7. What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I'd say The Greatest Problem, honestly. It's not even 1K words, making it short and sweet.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Nope! I did get spam once though.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I am physically incapable of doing so. The most I've done is the vaguest paragraph known to man which doesn't detail the act, just communicates that it's being done, and even that makes me embarrassed talking about it.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

That I do! None posted to AO3 just yet, but I have some TMNT iteration crossovers planned, as well as one BSD fanfiction that's heavily inspired by Clue 1985.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not as far as I know, and I certainly hope not.

12. What's the longest you've spent working on one fic? And the shortest?

I've been working on my timeloop My Hero fic- which is still ongoing- since June 2021. It is November of 2023. I do not see this fic ending anytime soon, so the answer is: Years. (And this is just counting from my published fics, not a certain WIP that has yet to see the light of day.)

As for the shortest... if I'm feeling particularly good, I can finish a oneshot in just a couple hours, but I don't do that as much as I used to.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yes! Though as of writing this it isn't ready for posting, I am currently working with some friends one one.

14. What's your all-time favorite ship? From all fandoms?

I'm a massive multishipper you can't just ask this. We'll be here all day.... that said, here are some are particularly clingy:

Mushiango (BSD)

Tokoraka (MHA)

Aidesse (MCSM)

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

Though I have had to lay down some WIPs to rest, I generally like to leave myself open to coming back to my fics/WIPs, even if it's been a long time since I've touched them. If there's one in particular though, it's an almost 10K My Hero oneshot that's been untouched for 2 years that probably only needs another few scenes in order to be complete- I even have part of the ending written already. I haven't given up on it yet, but... I don't know if that means I'll ever actually finish it.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Dialogue and character development! Aside from being some of my favorite stuff to write (or rather, letting the characters wander off to write themselves) it's what people have usually complimented about my work.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Get myself too write. But for writing itself, action sequences. Trying to write things quick and fast-paced when you're very wordy and like to get specific imagery across is very difficult, but I'm practicing to improve on them.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

Cool! With non-fanfic and stuff too, I always like seeing people adding those kinds of details since it often comes from something unique to the author.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Probably Pokemon, as it was one of my childhood stables I would create for constantly.

20. Favorite fic you've written?

I don't think I have one? Even if I did, it would probably change in a couple months. I really like my latest BSD oneshot Nowhere to Return though, if that counts?

Tagging @a-problematic-writer and I suppose anyone else who would want to!

20 Q's for Fic Writers

thanks for the tag @spacejammie-eimmajecaps!

How many works do you have on ao3? Officially 8, but I have one on anon and one currently unrevealed in a fic exchange

What's your total ao3 word count? 61,996

What fandoms do you write for? So far I've written for Death Note, Tangled the Series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Haikyuu, plus a couple of crossovers. Haikyuu is definitely my main rn though

What are your top five fics by kudos? #1: Frosting and Freckles: 69 (nice) #2: Draw Me Near: 39 #3: [embarrassing anon fic]: 35 #4: Varian Is Not a Wizard: 25 #5: Midnight Coda: 21

Do you respond to comments? Yeah, I love to! I don't get a lot so they always make me happy :)

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? probably the anon fic sdfsk but other than that, Midnight Coda is kinda bittersweet because of what happens later

What is the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? hmm idk but the sappiest is definitely Frosting and Freckles

Do you get hate on fics? Not so far, thankfully! I don't think I have a big enough readership for that haha

Do you write smut? If so, what kind? I have not; not sure what kind it would be if I did

Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written? I love writing crossovers! A PJO/HP crossover was actually what got me into fanfic. Unfortunately most of them are merely concepts or abandoned (for now), but as for crazy, I think my Lunar Chronicles/PJO one is the craziest in terms of how the plot grew out of control from a simple "what if these two characters interacted" to "I could rewrite most of this series," which is why I got stuck and put it on hiatus lol but I do want to get back to it someday. Maybe once I finish my other active crossover

Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not to my knowledge

What's the longest you've spent working on one fic? And the shortest? Uhhh well if we count "working on" as "having it in the back of mind to get to but haven't worked on in months," probably Sent from the Heavens lol. If not, then Varian Is Not a Wizard (just over two years since I published the first chapter). Shortest is definitely Midnight Coda, since I wrote that pretty much in a day iirc

Have you ever co-written a fic before? No, but it sounds like it could be fun!

What's your all-time favorite ship? From all fandoms? Dude I have no idea how to narrow that down. Best I can give you is my current fave is Tsukkiyama from Haikyuu

What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? Probably my "Leo Valdez ends up in the ATLA world" one :sob: It never made it past the word doc and about three pages of story and I haven't looked at it in like two years

What are your writing strengths? I like to think I'm pretty good at dialogue and grammar/spelling

What are your writing weaknesses? Everything else (jk). I am awful at describing scenes/settings; I get bored writing them so I don't put as much effort in as I should haha. I also tend to ramble and use passive voice too much

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? I haven't done it, but I think it's fine as long as it fits the context

First fandom you wrote for? Published: Avatar: The Last Airbender. Unpublished: Percy Jackson

Favorite fic you've written? I think it's still Bent Out of Shape. It's so niche, but I had an idea and I executed it, and I'm proud of what I accomplished. Although once I finish Varian Is Not a Wizard, that might take the top slot.
