god imagine if that was the first time Eri called Aizawa Papa 🥲 not even there to hear it
also honestly I think All Might not seeing anything wrong with watching a war televised with a child is like... part of how complex a character he is. like he spent literally his whole life dedicated to hero work, and I doubt he made many actually meaningful relationships in that time considering most of the people wanting to be near him would be wanting to be near All Might, not Toshinori. so he has gotten to the point where he literally has no social skills and has difficulty interacting with people. he's not a person; he's a symbol, a celebrity, someone who preforms a function for society. all of his biggest mistakes in the show are Because of this flaw: showing Eri that news footage, encouraging Izuku to do things alone like he has and not ask for help when he needs it, their whole first meeting lmao, even his difficulty with teaching. it all links back to him having given every part of himself to heroics since young adulthood and he is just now seeing the consequences of this when he reflects on how he has mentored Izuku and the mistakes he made and how it leads to the events following the current war arc. it's so fucking tragic I love it so much attention was put into his character and the way he behaves and the things he does are reflections of the way he gave up his own life. like the fact that he even had to 'decide to live' after retiring he literally saw no value in his life once he couldn't be a hero anymore. All Might's arc has been him learning how to be a human again, how to he Toshinori.
I don’t have much to add to this because it’s said perfectly. UuU presented as is. Anon got their shoes tied on right 💜
(Also as far as I’m concerned yes it is the first time Eri called him papa. Every time she addresses him before this it’s a carefully-controlled “mister Aizawa” because that’s polite and she doesn’t want put a burden of familiarity on him. But she’s seen him as more than that for a while)

gotta give it to the percy jackson fans, you really do love your main character. for other franchises, fans usually place the #1 blorbo title on a specific side character. but in percy jackson you really love your percy jackson

I think one of the reasons I dislike zutara as a ship so much is because their friendship is so beautiful on its own without romance and such a huge sign of growth and character development. zuko and katara were one of the first m/f relationships I saw in media where the characters weren’t related or love interests. and while there are several other m/f friendships katara was my favorite character when I first saw the show and as such their friendship was (and still is) very dear to me. 
also, I know everyone loves a good enemies-to-lovers, and I do too, but y’all are sleeping on the criminally underused trope of enemies-to-friends. in almost every enemies-to-lovers story I’ve read the reason that they get from enemies to lovers is because of some undeniable and immutable attraction. but what if we didn’t have that? what if you didn’t haunt my dreams at night? what if it wasn’t a struggle to pull my eyes away from you? what if I had every reason to hate you and all you had to give me was a late apology and a promise to do better? what if forgiving you was a choice I didn’t have to make? then what? I’d have to know you on purpose. you’d have to trust me when I forgive you because I’ve thought of every reason not to. 
and I hear some of you saying “oh but that could be a great enemies-to-lovers story too” and maybe it could, but you’re missing the point. the reason zuko and katara hits so hard for me is because they didn’t have to be friends. they both had other friends and other family and they both would have had happy and full lives. but they got past it anyways. and it didn’t have anything to do with romance or love. it was purely growth and self-improvement. zuko didn’t apologize because of a crush on a cute girl, he apologized because he regretted what he did and was maturing into a better and kinder and more thoughtful person. katara didn’t forgive him because he was hot, she forgave him because she understood that her anger and hate was poisoning her and she wanted to move on. 
tl;dr: the beauty of zutara’s friendship is that they became friends because of growth and maturity that had nothing to do with romance and throwing in that they were attracted to or in love with each other cheapens the significance of their character development and shows that romantic love is the only way to overcome personal challenges.

Spiritual seekers need one another as mirrors. A member of the Hopi nation once asked me about our holy days. I was telling him about Passover, our celebration of freedom, and Sukkot, our Feast of Tabernacles, and how they fit in with the cycles of the year. "I think I get it," he said finally. "You people don't want to be in slavery. And you want to pass this on to your children. But when you tell your kids on Passover, 'We have to go away from here; we can't stay here because it will cost us our freedom,' your kids will say, 'Yeah, but what are we going to eat?' So you teach them how to bake bread on stones, how to roast a lamb if you are hungry, how to find dandelion greens, and so on. When the kids ask, 'But where will we stay?' you show them how to build a lean-to, so they will have somewhere to live." An Indian perspective on the mitzvot to eat the Passover lamb with matzot and bitter herbs and to build a sukkah on Sukkot gave me a completely different insight into my own traditions.
-Jewish with Feeling, Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi. 2005, p. 198-199
