#made the thing met his horrible end with it but too many ppl don't get graced with this kind of dramatic irony

[mothocean]

i am, really just fucking hoping theres gonna be more safety regulations around this kind of stuff now. and that the greek coast guard gets fucking sued. also that the submersible company gets sued. and nothing like any of these things happens ever again

[cognitosclowns]

Ok so you know how A.B has a pretty big god complex? What if he met someone whos as close as you could get to an actual god-like creature. like they can change into some seraphim or biblical angel type shit [not to where he can’t comprehend their form or anything lol] I just want some shocked/flustered A.B

[if you want to make it dating headcannons or nsfw headcannons that’s alright too :)]

GKRKKGRKGKR IM DOIN A MIX OF BOTH BC IM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS IDEA AAAAAA

tw : religious references, cosmic/eldritch horror!!

LIKE <33333

yknow what'd make it even better??? if he's the ONLY one who can comprehend it

CAUSE,,,, LIKE,,,

Listen 99% of the time you've gotta use a mixture of Mind Control Glamour and self restraint bc,, Your True Form gives ppl Lovecraftian Breakdowns (tm)

IT REALLY IS SOME BE NOT AFRAID SHIT. just,, this swirling mass of wings and eyes and hands, sharp fractals of multicolored light that twist around in patterns that Do Not Make Sense To The Human Brain. Like,, Penrose triangles and shit all made of shimmering beams of light that surround you in a bubble w/ you at the center??? A mixture of metal and skin and something Other, a color on a spectrum of light humans cant see?? M.C Escher's wet dream

THE CULMINATION OF THIS MEANS A LOTTA PPLS BRAINS TURN INTO RICE PUDDING WHEN THEY SEE IT. Their brains just,, cannot handle it all together.

BUT WHEN *HE* FIRST SEES IT??

there's this little flinch - like you can definitely hear his processor tic-tic-tic-whirring at first tryna parse the details but... it goes quiet and he has this Horribly Curious, Adoring Look on his face??

an outstretched hand, mentally tracing the ridges as if he's making diagrams in his head??? He looks so,, simultaneously enraptured and surprised??? <33333

YOU DON'T EVEN GET IT, ELDRITCH ABOMINATION IS LIKE <333 HIS END GOAL FOR HOW HE WANTS TO LOOK ONCE HE ESCAPES.

HE'S SIMULTANEOUSLY ENVIOUS AS FUCK AND COMPLETELY GOO-GOO EYED BC <333 awooga what a fucking bombshell <333

'you're staring'

'Very closely, yes <3' just barely mumbled. He isn't trying to be coy about it, he's so clearly taken aback in the best way <33

it obviously throws you for a bit of a loop bc,, usually ppls first reaction to Uncanny Horrifying Creature (tm) is speaking in tongues and tearing their hair out but,, he starts asking questions?? His fingers and wiggling with this Enthusiasm?? oh gee <3333

GOD FUCK IF YOU TWO ARE A COUPLE??? HHHH <333

of course the obvious nickname of Angel <3 or variants - 'my lovely seraphim <3' and the like <333 its your own little in-joke

he loves it he loves it he loves it god why do you even have a humanoid form he just always wants to see you in your natural state please <333 never never never bother with disguises around him he doesn't care if you accidentally make some humans brain fall out actually yknow what that'd probably make him fall even more in love <333333 awooga

YOURE SO FUCKING TALL <333 oh god he would never admit it but it makes his legs go a bit wiggly. He's in the presence of such <333 beauty and power ofc he's flustered - why are you laughing, he's telling the truth >:(!

coming up behind him and,, placing those dozens of hands along his sides and back and shoulders feels like a thousand kisses <3333

he loves your voice <333 it's this fantastic,, layering?? Like a thousand voices speaking at once, slightly discordant coming from every direction??? <333 he'd never ask but like,, reading to him while you two lay down?? <33 oh my god he will be so at peace

his favorite thing is just <333 running his hands along your wings?? tracing the fractals as they orbit you?? it makes his fingers tingle <33 he never wants his hands off you. there's so much of you to touch and so many unparalleled textures and he wants all of it

THIS WASN'T REALLY THAT SMUTTY SMNDSMD BC IT WAS ALREADY GETTING LONG APOLOGIES

[bbq-hawks-wings]

I can't believe I didn't think the todo/endev stuff would've been divisive. Like if you don't like it then that's it, you just personally don't want to see it, that's valid, but then you have some ppl calling ppl who do like it and even hori abuse apologists (despite some of them being survivors themselves) but THen you have ppl on the other side insulting those who can't stomach it and, why is this all a thing.

CW/ abuse mention

I'm not all that surprised it stirs up such intense reactions. Unlike saving the world or becoming a hero, the struggle of a household and each of its members healing from a horribly abusive past, complete with all its uncomfortable, different, ugly blistering wounds and scars is way too close to home for a lot of people. Even for those who may have never experienced the same "severity" (in quotes because comparing trauma to silence or talk over victims of any kind is not okay - different forms of abuse is still abuse that leaves lasting impacts and effects everyone differently) they can feel personally connected to that pain.

I'm not surprised whatsoever that Endeavor is such a controversial figure. I would argue that's a good thing. If we come to love his character after lots of growth it's because he's really changed in the ways he's needed to and continuing on that road. If we can't ever get past what he did it's still justified because he's legitimately left the lives of his entire household in shambles - a home full of people who his chief responsibility was to love, provide for, and protect - who will carry the scars (some literal) of what he's done for the rest of their lives.

What surprised me most, however, is how Dabi became to be such a chief spokesperson for the entire family despite being the most removed as far as attitudes towards Endeavor and his actions in response; and how he became the only "valid" victim for so many.

I absolutely pity what he went through. He was absolutely right to feel abandoned. He was abused as much as anyone in that household. His trauma was just as real, just as impactful, and just as valid as the rest. All of his childhood trauma was a result of his father's actions of which Endeavor does need to face and account for. Even his desire to lash out at the objects of his father's affection - his mother and siblings - as a child as a way in his mind to make the pain stop and regain what he legitimately needed in his father's attention and affection is understandable given the circumstances. He's very much damaged, and the onset of that damage is not his fault. He desperately needed help he never got.

But here's where the split happens: at a point he was removed from his family and their influence and became his own person at which point he decided to step on the gas and purposely cause collateral damage on top of the self-destruction.

To be clear, simply leaving that harmful environment and growing up does not erase the damage it caused. PTSD would not be a thing of that was the case. However, Dabi is in one of two states given his behavior: he's genuinely insane (mentally ill to point he doesn't recognize what he's doing - a justified legal defense of insanity) or he's at least lucid enough to know and purposely chose to inflict harm on others because of whatever benefit he feels he gets from it (not able to plead insanity).

Either way, he's a clear danger to himself and others and needs to be reigned in. If he's not in full control of his faculties he needs professional help and has to be taken into custody for everyone's safety. If he is all there, it's right for him to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law because trauma does not excuse making more victims of any kind.

And for some reason, despite these facts well being able to coexist, the fandom doesn't seem to accept that - at least not uniformly and the disparity of opinion is night and day. We have real life examples of people who went through traumatic childhoods who became serial killers, and we don't disagree that they needed to be institutionalized or prosecuted for the safety of the public and their survivors; but Dabi gets a pass somehow?

Perhaps the main divide comes down to some can't/don't/won't make a distinction between Touya the abuse victim and Dabi the abuser. Both can and do exist in the same person, but the focus of his life's goal has shifted to be distinct enough to make that distinction as the audience. As a child, he was a victim who was doing everything he could think to do to get what he needed in a horrible situation. As an adult with ample degree of rational thought and self-awareness, he leverages his damage to justify the homicide he commits against his own victims.

And this especially is why I have pity for Touya, but not for Dabi.

I knew someone who did that - who did that to me. Someone who I considered a friend, even "family" until I set boundaries and started acting contrary to what they wanted when it was like a switch went off inside them. They had a legitimately terrible upbringing and a questionable family situation, at best; but that didn't mean I had to suffer the effects those negative influences splashed into my life.

If something I did made them upset and what they only ever knew was to verbally express, "You're lucky I have the control to hit the wall instead of you when I get this upset" that anger is valid, but I was also right to say, "If this is a problem, I'll do what I can to make it right on my end, but you do not have the right to threaten me, emotionally manipulate me, or lash out in retaliation - and especially not without consequences or pushback. You need help, and I want to help you help yourself; but that was not acceptable. I am responsible for me and what I do, not for how you take things and respond."

It boils my blood thinking back how often they tried to peddle back and make me the bad guy in my own head by trying to guilt me with their own tragic backstory so I'd stay complicit. Clearly, I'm still not completely over it, and I was unpleasantly reminded of it not long ago when nightmares with their face came back to haunt me for the first time in years after just seeing their name again in passing earlier that day. It took a complete stranger I met at a house party telling me after I spilled my guts late into the night for me to even begin to recognize that I was being manipulated and abused.

So yeah, there it is yet again - the Todofam drama is way too close to home for too many people. The worst tragedy in that, though, is that no one can apparently be validated in their opinions unless they bare themselves like I did just now. That shouldn't be the case. These discussions should be able to exist as hypotheticals and discussing canon events instead of requiring everyone who wants to weigh in to have their own trauma validated.

It's easy to pile onto Endeavor because he's the clear "bad guy" in the scenario who will never be able to erase what he's done even if all of his family magically forgave him and he turned into the patron saint of puppies and kittens. But for some reason it's not easy to recognize people can feel the same way about Dabi who can recognize him for being both victim and victimizer.

I wish it wasn't the case. There's a lot of right and wrong and stuff that isn't wrong - just uncomfortable and sucky in this subplot; but fandom is too stuck on insisting in an all or nothing bad guy/good guy to fully appreciate the nuance in this plotline.

[curseofaphrodite]

toriiii i hope you're doing good manifesting you did well in your neets

✨buckle up bestie you're in for a lot of drama bc i'm pissed✨

continuing my drama w "tina"!

i met her in 3rd grade w her another friend and tina was always like rude controlling in power type of person so she was sorta leader of our "trio"? like if i fought w her then she wouldn't let the other girl talk to me so i become alone and since i'm introverted person i usually don't talk to ppl outside my circle she knew that and took advantage of it like leaving me out of almost everything but i'm sorta desperate for someone so i'd stay anyways. so once we fought over some petty thing and she didn't talk to me for 5 months and just before my birthday she was like "BESTIE HEY HOW'S YOU" and naive innocent me became friends w her without any proper apology or conversation. yk i made some friends during those 5 months and idk once tina let me back into the "trio" i fell out of touch from my those new friends. then guess what after my birthday party and being a goodie two shoes infront of my mum she stopped talking to me once again and didn't let the other girl talk to me too. her and i would meet up in secret after tina would go home and bitch about her (we named her jiggly puff pokemon sorry jiggly puff for even considering you're anywhere near her😔) like see how toxic it was since the beginning. the other girl sort of left because of toxicity (funny she's toxic too she was gaslight gatekeep but no girlboss lmao) tina fucking finally apologized in 4th grade that too on a paper no verbal shits let's ignore it only when we were forced to sit together 🥰 damn now i think about it i think she "apologized" bc 1. the other girl was distancing herself 2. i started making friends again and we were like a group plus plus plus i would get along well with my seatmate and his friends so we were all (my girl friends++ my seatmate s friends) an unofficial official group ig she just wanted a group she could dominate

in short me 🤝 being friends w toxic ppl

now drama #2🥰🍷

so when i was 13 i liked a guy. i went to attend my cousin's wedding and he was my cousin's cousin (no blood relation with me pls! no insect 😭) so he was there too. i met him quite a few times before this and we were friendly anywhore that year we spent a lot of time together and blah blah blah and all. we kissed too😟 he was 25/26 at this moment and i was 13 pls do remember this shit. after the wedding was over we went back to my grandma's place so he and i had no contact. i was still in my ✨feels✨ and thought nothing was wrong. i even had a hidden folder of his pictures 🥲#regret anywhore after some days my cousin who got married and her sister (who's of my age) visited us and i was talking to the younger one whose of my age and turns out that he already had a girlfriend when we kissed and all that ilysm shit. he told me they've broken up very long time ago and he's single for almost a year now- TF BITCH BOY I WANNA BEAT YOU SO BAD. anyways i got over it soon it wasn't a proper crush i think i just found him attractive lol. thank god bless everyone who unknowingly stopped my attraction grow to love bc my god that guy was 25/26 and i was 13 that's illegal and a 12/13 age gap?? tf boy i didn't even get through my puberty at that time?? i didn't even have tits tf you liked me for??? and now the age gap i don't have any problems with age gap when they're both mature responsible and of age but in my case i was immature to. but anyways thank god nothing happened after the kiss i really don't want to imagine what could have happened had we have been close and in contact 😃😃 now 3 years later i see so many things which were wrong so many things which could have ended horribly and the fact that one of my very close friends is going through the same situation but the guy she likes is atleast respectful and he did say he cannot date her but they talk and i know it damn well she hasn't lost any feelings. it absolutely breaks my heart bc idk i feel like that guy is trying to be "respectful". he knows my friend feels more than friends for him then why not distance yourself from her especially when she's so young and immature. okay i understand if you don't wanna talk to her mum but atleast he could've distanced himself plus plus plus he invited her family for some travel tour EVEN after knowing her feelings for her??? what is wrong with people?? go for someone who's of age not some underage person who could regret it later in life when they become mature and start understanding shits???
