A small question about your wonderful doppelganger au if you don't mind - why is Legato shorter than Legend now? Is it magic from Triforce Heroes or something else?
BTW I absolutely LOVED your last update, Legato being comforted by Hyrule and Warriors after dyeing his hair melted my heart🥹🥹🫶
Aw, thank you so much <33 To answer your question: he just shrunk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
...
XD Okay, but to be serious: I promise there is a reason. This is one of the points where Legato is an unreliable narrator. He does not want to think about the reason why, so he'll only mention it indirectly. Pay attention--there are clues if you want to try to figure it out before it's directly revealed :3
#it's fun to joke about it whenever folks ask me on ao3 but i figure i'll be upfront about it here#i love seeing people theorizing. like y'all are *smart*#nothing more satisfying than seeing you guys start to put together pieces of the story before it happens#means that i'm doing my job right and the story makes logical sense XD#LU Doppelgänger AU#starslog

Just saw a post from someone I follow that was blaming Hero Society and BJ attitude because instead of worrying for Endeavor's abuse he is worrying for Hero Society, and calling abuse apologist those that acted like that, saying that heroes just don't care because it's not going to benefit them (like a televised battle). Like damn, I understand your point but 1- We haven't read the official translation 2- I think you are making assumptions and 3-he is a hero, seeing a criminal exposing his past as a "hey, no.1 hero abused me so therefore we shouldn't trust any heroes" and seems to be actually manipulating the audience, so BJ, a hero who protects and who needs people to trust him and hero society, can't afford to be emotional in that situation since there's literally a battle with the LOV, where Dabi is, and heroes actually need to fight to save people. I had to shut down my own mentality and feelings just for the sake of trying to understand what was happening with Dabi on TV and that comment and while I'm not okay with his methods and BJ could have been more tactful or maybe care more about Endeavor's abuse, I guess that my idea is that we don't really need to drag everyone down and make things worse than what they actually are because of a bias...
+ I had to personally un follow the account since it has annoyed me in the past even if I like their blogs, I mean, I'm not a fan of things being treated like that and letting your own bias take control of your mentality, I just prefer when things are treated in a more rational matter than this. I really get their point I just would like that we could be a little more mindful of things before doing then, idk. It has make me think about how people can easily attach to these stories and just assume how things are going to happen or what is happening in the story, then complaining if it's not like that and sometimes blaming the writer instead of rereading just to see if you have lost something or make a mistake in your opinion (which is not the case right now, but it happens), I guess you're the only blog I follow that sometimes let her own opinions blind her but still knows how to address things and making sure that what you're saying is canon, saying that it's your own interpretation, and just having personal headcanons but rarely claiming that they are true on your own.
Rationality is usually lost when it comes to strong emotions, especially when abuse is mentioned.
It’s still wrong to label Best Jeanist as an abuse apologist though based on a few fan translated leaks and ignoring the context of what is happening at the moment. As you said, Dabi painting all heroes like they’re rotten to the core is going to have a massive negative impact on how they can do their jobs considering they require the trust of the public (and it’s a hard thing to get considering the heroes have constantly been under fire from them), especially because it’s a very biased take of him that completely misinterprets all heroes based on the actions of one (as Tozhan put it in a message to me, Dabi plucked a rotten apple off a tree and then declared all of them to be rotten without checking the rest :/).
Best Jeanist isn’t excusing Endeavor’s abuse but more condemning Dabi’s choice of actions which is something that all of the fandom has been doing (or at least on my dash), so I don’t know why Best Jeanist is under fire for it. I don’t want to say he should have been less callous on how he dealt with the issue until the official translations came out but from a rational perspective, I can understand why he’s upset.
I wish more people would be objective when examing the characters feelings. There will be a logical, or should be, reason why they feel that way that has been expressed in the story and all you have to do is find those reasons to make the character make sense (and even then you don’t have to agree with them. Case in point, I understand why the League are the way they are but still don’t agree with them.)
(Also, I feel like a lot more blogs could benefit from going��“I was wrong” instead of blaming the writing. There’s nothing shameful about misinterpreting things, I’ve done it many times and have been corrected by friends and anons alike and then apologised for doing so and amended my opinion. It’s the only way to remain as unbiased as possible when tackling the manga imo.
And I know this might be strange to say but I’m happy to hear that anon (not the fact that I’m the only blog you follow that does but the fact that I do XD). I try hard to stick to canon as unbiased as possible and openly admit when I’m not the best person to talk about something due to my bias (i.e. when discussing Shigaraki or Hawks wings) so I’m happy to hear that when I am biased, it doesn’t bother people as much as I’m open about the fact... Does that make sense?)
