thank you so much for speaking up about Palestine, as someone who is half Palestinian it’s been really worrisome to watch what is happening to our family and friends who are still back home going through all this horror.

I was actually really surprised seeing many people around the world protesting and boycotting but filled with gratitude nonetheless.

especially knowing my favorite fic writer is showing awareness on it, just thank you, really❤️

My father's Albanian and when wars were happening in the 90s in the Balkans, Palestinians were protesting against the ethnic cleansing of Albanians in Kosovo. I think that says such a tremendous amount about Palestinians and how a people embroiled in their own fight for liberation, were at the same time, calling for someone else's.

Even if I were to try and imagine a fraction of the pain you must be feeling right now, I'd probably fall very short. I hope that this ends as quickly as possible for your friends and family, but also that it does not end and return to the way it was. I hope that the walls erected around Gaza and the West Bank are torn down, that anyone who wishes to see the sea can go without crossing a checkpoint or seeking a permit, and that waving a Palestinian flag is not criminalized or demonized, but celebrated for the freedom and resilience it represents.

I think these protests prove that so many people in this world are kinder and more compassionate than those ones who govern them. I'm so angry at how Palestinians are being forced to grieve and explain and defend and condemn themselves all at the same time in a foreign language to people who have already decided to dig their heels in and claim that this is "war," rather than see the genocide unfolding before them.

and Endeavor filming.

I need to get out of the house.

csadjkhfkamka, I'M CRYINGGGG. THE WAY THE LITTLE GIRL IN THE MIDDLE STARTS CRYING CAUSE HE HIT HER FOOT 😂😂😂😂

Endeavor trying to put them in a timeout would be too funny. Honestly in WHD, if he tried that with Izumi and she'd make the kitchen pipes overflow.

Shoto and Izumi once Touya starts hanging out with them again.

LAST ONE PROMISE, I’m just back in my WHD phase😭

Lol, no, I love these.

Touya would honestly be so annoying once all the heartache is over. He'd be so nosey about their lives and it'd drive him crazy when Shouto just gives literal answers instead of details 😂😂

Shigaraki trying to prove that everything in the world is wrong and trying to be ‘smarter’ than AFO.

And Izumi is just indulging him.

Lmfaooo, Izumi really would just sit there and listen. TBH, I'm so excited to see the end of MHA because it'll give me a better sense of what their new world looks like in the aftermath of the war including the villains roles.

when sugiwa hasn’t updated in a while~

me: well might as well reread the whole thing

Lol, I'm so embarrassed whenever someone mentions it. I swear, I'm writing it, but it's like there's a mountain in front of the finish line that gets taller and taller the more I climb 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[sugiwa]

me seeing spoilers for mha and op: 😐

me seeing spoilers of both of your fics: 🤬

literally i need to catch up, my job is ruining my life😭

Lol, I can't keep my mouth shut about spoilers. I'm sorry about that 😭😭

And I feel you on the work-front. My manager recently scolded me for not taking vacation, but if I leave, no work gets done

touya planning on exposing endeavor but izumi does it first

sorry i’ve been dying at this trend😭

fjdksafnjksda, lmfaoooo, that's so accurate. It's honestly one of the funniest trends. I don't know if Izumi's going to steal that limelight from Touya, but Endeavor is going to find out relatively soon, so that's exciting.

Dabi would drop her straight to Izumi’s room

No comment, cause....spoilers....but, that would 100% happen.

Penny when Kuma sends her to another island

The accuracy to this is unmatched. She would be so unbothered by it 😂😂

[sugiwa]

how we feelin about the mha leaks, that whole family is breaking my heart🥹

I'm heartbroken for Shouto and Touya, but REIIIIIIIIIII. Iconic. This actually matches part of the plot I have planned, especially the Himura side of things and Rei's next moves in WHD, so I'm very pleased that Horokoshi's on the same wave length as me.

Izumi and Shoto trying to get Touya to come back

You know what--that would probably work on him 😂😂

[sugiwa]

if you were to stick to the killing of ace in your fic, i hope he would come up more before that. only reason i wasn’t as sad as most ppl for ace and whitebeard’s death is because they didn’t come up as much enough to get to know them yk?

Yes, that's so true! When I first read OP, I wasn't that struck by his death. I was more hurt for Luffy's sake because it was such a painful event.

Ace is actually going to come back in a sort of surprising way and cross paths with Penny once more. Penny's already subtly changed things and we will see that come to head in the next couple of chapters.

We will also see more of Whitebeard's crew and Ace's, so if he does die, I'll make it hurt. 😂

My problem with keeping him alive is where to go next from there--how does it affect the whole Blackbeard thing, what does Ace do in the two years, how does Luffy grown, etc. I'm not sold on him living, but at the same time, the battle at Marineford will be slightly different too.

[sugiwa]

do you have anything that can help motivate me to reading op again? i stopped at ch. 664 and didn’t continue since august and i rlly want to read your fic after catching up so i won’t be totally lost😭

You're in the Punk Hazard arc? Ugh, that arc is a huge drag and I struggled to get through it too. I think I stopped for a few weeks before picking it back up. The next arc is one of the most iconic OP arcs and you get some pretty shocking surprises. Law's backstory alone is a huge reason to continue and Luffy gets a pretty shocking reunion with someone.

Once you do catch up, you're almost going to regret it because where we are now is both exciting and stressful for a number of reasons, but it's also fantastic that we're getting answers to questions that were asked hundreds of chapters prior.

*sobs*🥹

Why would you do this to me??????

[sugiwa]

Okay BUT Izumi ends up in another universe where the Todoroki family is healthy and filled with happiness and whatever, she’d freak the F outt

I think it would literally break her to know that there is a universe that exists where they were born out of love and not Endeavor's genetic experiments to build a super solider. Lol, she'd probably hate herself in that universe and try to get home as soon as possible. It's giving me the creeps to think about 😂

Izumi to Touya when he has to settle for Hawks and no one else

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSRWNC6tq/

LMFAOOOOOOOOOO, THIS IS SO ACCURATE. Izumi would be the last one onboard for that relationship. Though, decidedly, I'm not making a ship for Touya in the story as the primary focus there is his family and friendships. He has a lot of healing to do.
