Their S/O takes them to an Asian House Party

[Midoriya + Todoroki + Bakugou + Kaminari + Kirishima]

A/N: Hey here’s a niche that no one asked for.

I know that Japanese is a type of Asian but I am a wildly different type of Asian 🤣🤣, so my headcanons are based entirely off of being this other racial group.

I just want to say that most of the time older Asian relatives really step out of line with their comments and can be really hurtful. I absolutely hate that behavior and their mindset, but for the purposes of this let’s just say that they’re not being harmful at all and it’s mostly light teasing :) If they’re like that in real life :) screw them >:) Also P.S. if these sound familiar it’s because I’ve recycled a lot of ideas from my other blog where I wrote “Asian House Party” headcanons already!

Warnings: mentions of alcohol, hints at underage drinking

Midoriya Izuku:

For the longest time it has only been him and his mom, so when he enters the house and sees it packed with people his brain just goes blank because this is a family party.

These people are all related to you somehow??

He asks you how you guys are all related and you’re genuinely like, “I don’t know???” You just call everyone auntie and uncle and hope for the best.

If you start taking him to parties before he becomes a Pro, he has enough of a baby face that your older relatives and grandparents give him a red envelope without thinking too hard about it. But he gets so embarrassed and feels so bad that he ends up giving it to your mom.

At his first party he’s supperrr nervous and wants your family to like him. He’s stuttering nearly every other syllable.

Never leaves your side. Trails behind you like a puppy the entire time.

After he’s been to several parties with your family, they recognize his red Nike Air Forces in the pile of shoes outside the house enough to be like, “Hey, [Name]! Your boyfriend’s here!”

Midoriya is kinda of a pushover during the beginning of the series, and Asian families have the tendency to tease without knowing how it might sound, so he becomes an easy target until you pull him aside and tell him to argue back.

He’s like noooo I don’t want to be disrespectful :(. He says that he’s used to bullying so this is nothing which makes you kinda sad and angry. You’re like hahahaha no.

You two eventually get your family to stop and that’s when he’s finally indoctrinated into your fam.

He’s kind of the quintessential Asian boyfriend? He goes to a good school, is sweet and innocent, polite to elders, etc. When he goes to the party with you your aunties are going to your cousins and say, “Why can’t you get a boyfriend like [Name].”

Your female relatives kinda baby him because every time they see him he’s always in a new cast with another broken bone, so when there’s no more space left on the couches or the folding stools they kick your cousins off to make room for him.

When he later becomes Pro-Hero Deku, everyone’s in love with him. He becomes the talk of the party. Everyone brags about him saying that they practically saw him grow up when they only see him once or twice a year.

He also becomes the “cool uncle” that offers to take your younger relatives out for boba. But you pay. You have to pay or else your mom will yell at you for making the guest spend money.

Yes, you will polite fight your own boyfriend.

No, he will not win, but he’s determined to win one time like the shonen protag he is.

Always leaves the party with the large trays of leftovers for him and his mom.

Even when he’s like in his late twenties he’s still sitting at the kid’s table.

Todoroki Shouto:

When you first invited him to a party with your family he’s just like, “Oh. Sure.” Most of the parties he’s been to is the rich people parties that his dad took him to for publicity, so he arrives to the house in a whole suit and tie.

Your cousins and uncles are clowning him while the older women swoon. You’re in the background panicking because everyone else is in sweats or shorts while he looks like he’s going to prom??

[Your auntie says, “Oh my god, he’s making such a good first impression!”

You: Hahahaha! Yea!〔´∇｀〕

Inner You: Oh god I forgot he’s clueless ⊙▽⊙]

Brings an expensive pastry every time because Fuyumi said it was polite. From that everyone’s like, “Oh??? You’re invited to every party from now on!”

Becomes the source of your mom’s humble brag. “Oh, your son goes to Stanford and is studying medicine? My kid and their boyfriend are both Heroes-in-training and he’s the son of the Number One Hero — “

Kinda just does whatever your aunties and mom tells him to do?

He’ll sit wherever they tell him to sit, even if it’s far away from you and he’ll even take the many family photos for you guys in the end. Even though he’s shit at photography.

If they’re like, “Oh, you’re so skinny, you should eat some more!” He’ll just shrug and be like okay, and doesn’t stop them when they continue to put food on his plate even though he’s full and gets into a big food coma that knocks him out on the couch right away.

Every time he appears, your aunties will just stop and say, “Oh, he’s so handsome!”

He’s getting better at handling kids and it shows by the way he’s more willing to play with them then hang out with your cousins that are around your age. He’s in the room upstairs and is ;; just napping with them.

The kids in the party call him Zuko.

Before you brought him your aunts and uncles would be like, “Do you have a boyfriend?? Do you have a girlfriend??” and you would say, “Yeah, Todoroki Shouto.” And they would laugh in your face.

NO ONE BELIEVED THAT HE WAS YOUR BOYFRIEND UNTIL YOU BROUGHT PROOF!! HERE HE IS !! IN THE FLESH!!

I feel like he would have the most culture shock? You guys conduct yourself in such a different way than his own family and from everyone in 1-A. You guys go batshit insane.

When you wake him up and offer to walk him to the train station to take him home, he offers to walk you back to your house as well and you say, “Oh, I’m going back to the party after this.”

It’s almost midnight??

He asks you where are you going to sleep or if you’re going to sleep at all and you don’t know how to explain the concept of how you and all of your cousins and siblings are going to cram into one room upstairs and sleep on every blanket in the house on the floor while only three or four lucky relatives are able to get the bed.

Older Asians have no filter so they will straight up say to his face that he looks nothing like his dad he’ll just go, “ :’) Thank you, that means a lot to me.”

Before Endeavor’s redemption arc he’s prone to oversharing and one day he tells your mom that his dad is a piece of shit and his mom is in the hospital.

Your mom, taking her sandal and holding it like a weapon: Oh? Where’s your father?? I just want to talk. Your mom is welcome to every [Surname] party from now on!! Haha! (◕ᴗ◕✿)

His brain is doing backflips trying to figure out how you’re related to everyone.

The only guy that neatly puts his shoes off to the side at the front door.

Bakugou Katsuki:

At first you didn’t invite him to the party, he kinda just figures it out from how your relatives are all tagging you on social media and forces you to invite him.

Not because you’re ashamed of him but because they’re somewhat overbearing ;; and Bakugou has no filter.

For someone who’s so “badass” he’s super anal about the rules and punctuality.

You tell him the party is at 18:00 and by 17:45 he goes into your house and finds you still napping with your PJs on. Even though you tell him that the party isn’t really starting at six he doesn’t listen. He forces you to get dressed and takes you to the party and whatdoyouknow no one is there yet. No one is going to be here until at least two hours after the designated time.

He instead forces you to help the women in the kitchen prepare the food, aka he’s helping while you laze around in the living room.

All of the women are like, “Wow! You can cook so well! [Name] you should be more like him!!”

If this is the first time he meets your entire extended family, he’s inwardly hyping himself up to make a good first impression. If you are not Japanese, he manages to memorize several greetings in your language and the proper formalities when greeting an older relative. Then he goes in and everyone’s already drinking and screaming their throats out to karaoke.

When he walks into the party with his black tank top and saggy pants everyone’s first thought is that he’s an Asian Baby Boy. Like he probably takes social media pictures in front of cars, is going to break your heart, goes to raves, is named Kevin Nguyen.

Everyone is loud af at this party so they don’t really care that he’s screaming. They love teasing the shit out of him because his reactions are so fucking funny.

When one of your uncles offers you alcohol he immediately snatches it away from you. No, you guys are underage, have an athletic lifestyle, and he’s so protective of you asdfg

He’s been so focused on being a Hero that when your cousins play against him in video games or card games he loses horribly. He’ll just keep going, “One more round!” until he finally wins.

Your mom forces you to do a convenience store run to get something that the party is running out of and when you come back Bakugou managed to find is way into the “women” side of the room where they’re all gossiping with him and playing poker together like they’ve been friends forever.

Your mom honest-to-god acts like he’s more of her child than you are.

When you guys finally get your families to meet, his mom and your female relatives are going to be so powerful together.

Is trying his damned hardest to get through the entire party because it can go all night long and he sleeps at 8:30PM.

Kaminari Denki:

The KING of the Asian House Party.

Absolutely CRUSHES it at karaoke with your family. Even though he might not speak your language, he’s putting so much passion into it that no one cares anyway.

Sings so loud that the neighbors complain.

Your family loves him because he’s just so happy-go-lucky. The life of the party.

He goes around eating all night and continually asks you, “Hey [Name], what’s this? What’s this one?”

You can drop him off in the designated kids room and not see him for hours on end. He’s too busy playing video games with your cousins and siblings.

But he’s such a sucker. Your uncles and older cousins pull him into any gambling game and he loses so bad, even if he’s gambling things like candy or food.

Kinda gullible when your family teases him?? If you’re not Japanese they teach him an insult in your language but tell him it’s a complement or “It’s like saying, I love you more than words,” and they send him off to tell you it.

And he acts super fucking cocky like the e-boy smirk while he’s rubbing his hands together, and biting his lip and shit. While you’re just sitting on the stool with a drink in your hand like, “Okay....”

He tells you the insult and butchers the pronunciation already, but acts like you’re about to fall in his arms and you just ;; burst out laughing ;;; until you fall off your chair.

Has the party time down pat. He won’t arrive until three hours later, and that’s when you tell him an earlier time than everyone else.

Will drink anything your uncle offers up. He’s a lightweight. You end up half-carrying him half-dragging him back to his house. Nearly trips on the sea of shoes outside the front door and falls on you.

You’re just lucky that he doesn’t discharge his Quirk randomly when he’s drunk.

Doesn’t get Asian glow.

When your mom discovers you struggling outside she just tells him to sleep over and if this is his first party with you guys, you’re able to get the bed because he’s the guest 😌😌. If he’s been here several times before, yeah ;; you guys are going back to a pile of blankets on the floor.

Kirishima Eijirou:

The “big brother” figure of the party.

The kids love him and he’s willingly playing “Heroes and Villains” with them for hours.

Since he’s so broad they hang off of him like a limpet and he walks around with children draped around him.

Ngl... He walks into the party dressed like all of your other male cousins.

Basketball shorts, t-shirt, crew socks.

He’s able to find his shoes super fast at the end of the party because he’s the only person that’s willing to wear crocs.

Willing to go outside with your cousins to play basketball with them but he’s so out of practice that he fumbles so bad.

After several games he gets the hang of it and isn’t deadweight to your team anymore.

LOVES going to your family’s parties because he gets to eat whatever he wants without holding back. Eats several plates and when someone suggests going to get ice cream he’s like, /gasp/ “Ice cream???”

They were offering the little kids, but okay, a teenager can come along too.

You’re never too old for ice cream.

For some reason he’s able to get along with everyone at the party?? He just has a personality that makes him easy to talk to, and by the end of the night or the next day, he’s saying goodbye to everyone by name.

[“No, wait, [Name], I haven’t said goodbye to your cousin’s sister-in-law’s daughter yet.

You do a double-take because even you have no idea who that is.]

When he gets a little bit older and he’s finally allowed to move out of the kid’s table and eat with the older male relatives he’s so ;;; awkward.

They’re just all in the garage eating, drinking, and smoking and he’s just sitting there having no idea what to do.

Eventually he convinces you to join him in the garage because he wants your emotional support and is super shocked when you fit right in. He’ll just ;;; go back to the kid’s table.

Can’t sing to save his life.

You guys heard him do karaoke once and you never let him do it again.

If one of your relatives teases him he’s able to laugh it off and not think too much about it, but if they say something that might be hurtful to you he’s so quick to shut it down. He doesn’t care that they’re blood related to you or not.

Does not let up until they apologize.

For some reason all of the ladies are confused af when they find out that he dyed his hair?? They’re like omg is he a secret delinquent.

LOVES to hear your relatives talk about what you were like when you were a kid.

It’s embarrassing af but he just laughs it off like, “It’s okay, babe! You sound like you were super cute as a kid!”

Alright y’all, I was bored and wanted to ignore my hw, so I made a tier list on everyone’s lore and a quick writeup for each placement. Just an fyi this is my opinion and will most likely change as we get more story content, but right now this is where I stand (no arguing please, or at least nothing that’ll result in name calling and such)

But yeah this is something I’ll probably look back on and be like “hmm maybe I was too harsh with my rankings” but rn it’s like 2:30 in the morning so yeah

TW: mention of abuse in Octane’s section

All of it will be under the cut

S Tier

Bloodhound: Maybe I’m biased because I’m a BH main, but imo their lore is the most interesting and nuanced out of everyone’s. From their parents, to their uncle, to Boone, and now their planet, Bloodhound’s backstory, current lore, and character is fantastic and honestly peak writing from Respawn atm.

Wraith: I understand that not everyone loves the “I lost my memory and am now trying to find out who I am” trope, and maybe this is also biased because I’m a complete Wraith simp, but her lore to me is also very unique and well done. The entire Voidwalker cinematic alone is what’s basically putting her in S tier, but I also love how she is the prime definition of “Looks like they can kill you, but is actually a cinnamon roll” instead of your typical edgy girl that coldly pushes everyone away.

A Tier

Horizon: Interstellar but make it Scottish. She has really nice interactions with Mirage and Wattson, and there’s plenty of potential with where her character can go now that Ash is in the picture.

Gibraltar: While his lore isn’t as flashy like the ones in S tier, I still think it’s really good. For one, it’s consistent, and the stuff with Nik and Michael is very bittersweet. I really like how despite the tragedies in his life, like BH, that only made him more determined to do the right thing. 10/10 he’s got your back bruddahs

Mirage: Respawn’s poster boy, so it’s only natural that he gets a shitload of lore. Fortunately, it’s not shit and actually fleshes him out as a character greatly. I also really like the canon sibling relationship he has with Rampart. Now that his dad may or may not force himself into the picture soon, it’s gonna be more character development for Mirage either way.

Borderline

I’ll explain this tier real quick. Basically they’re between A and B; they have the potential to be great, but they’re being held back by a certain something.

Bangalore: Pathfinder’s Quest did a really good job fleshing her out, but the love triangle and inconsistent behavior towards Wraith isn’t doing her any favors. It’s a shame, because characters like Anita are really unique and not seen often. I can only hope Respawn realizes that no, love triangles are not the peak writing they think it is.

Loba: Same deal here, that love triangle and her rebounding off Valk is really not doing anything good towards her character. They’re adults, are they not capable of communicating? Like Bangalore, she’s also really unique in the sense that she’s a bisexual woman of color in a video game who is a complete girlboss and inspiration. Respawn stop fucking up your characters please!

B Tier

Revenant: He’s really badass, and his lore is fun, it’s just that the writing is making him look like a complete joke. He gets clowned on every time he’s about to do something cool and it’s honestly kinda sad. If the writing could give him a few kills to his name to actually establish that he’s a threat, I’ll put him up higher.

Octane: If this was fanon Octane, he’d be an automatic S tier. Respawn needs to flesh out his backstory some more, like most of the fanfics do. That one comic where he confronts his dad was 10/10, we just need more of that and actually tackling the effects his father’s abuse had on him. Also the potential history he has with Seer is a good opportunity to explore more of his character, so that’s a good start.

Rampart: Just recently she’s getting lore, and all of it is very good so far. The relationships she has with a lot of the legends are very strong, and the foreshadowing towards Big Sister returning is also a huge plus.

Fuse: The Maggie stuff was honestly really fucking lame (I blame the ingame comics for this), for me what’s really carrying his character rn are the Fusehound interactions. Idrc if it ends up platonic or romantic, all Ik is that there is a lot of potential in fleshing out Fuse as a character either way.

C Tier

Pathfinder: Okay I’m not gonna lie, I have conflicted feelings on Path. He got an entire book to himself dedicated to his own lore, along with a cinematic that gave a visual on what actually happened to his creators, and yet I don’t care for his lore??? Thinking about it, it’s probably because he didn’t really get any character development, he ultimately stayed the same (except that one moment where Revenant screwed with him, but he bounced back literally one chapter later). Also, it honestly looks like his story is over anyway, he just has to find his kid. At least his personality is 10/10 though

Lifeline: Y’all are probably thinking, why is Lifeline here and not Octane + vice versa, isn’t their lore basically the same? It’s because imo Octane has more potential character development atm, and Lifeline doesn’t really have any character interactions that don’t have to do with her childhood friend, so that to me is what’s separating her from Octane. Lol again if this were fanon Lifeline she’d probably be in A tier, borderline S tier.

D Tier

Valkyrie: Literally the first thing that happens to her in the lore is that she gets thrown into a love triangle. I understand that it’s in her character to be flirty and stuff, but a love triangle? Really? Ms. Kairi Imahara deserves sm better than that. Honestly the only reason she’s not in F tier is because I like her personality, along with the Northstar cinematic.

Seer: Tbh, there isn’t a lot we know about Seer. However, what we know about him so far isn’t detrimental and for me the reason he isn’t in F tier. The interactions he has so far have the potential to be explored.

E Tier

Wattson: Man. I wish she wasn’t here, but the fact that almost all her lore involves babysitting two grown men really killed her character for me. Fanon Wattson is a million times more enjoyable to me, Respawn needs to seriously consider giving her independent lore and/or branch out to other characters that aren’t Crypto and Caustic.

Crypto: Same thing, the fact that he’s strictly tied to Wattson and Caustic rn is annoying and stupid. It also doesn’t help that literally nothing about his personal lore has been addressed recently (Mila, clearing his name).

F Tier

Caustic: If he were actually established as a proper villain, he’d be way higher. But no, Respawn wants to play rock paper scissors with this guy; one second he literally wants to gas a city, the next he’s playing nice because “Wattson blackmailed him?” Lol I don’t fucking think so. I’m not saying a redemption arc for Caustic is impossible, it’s just that Respawn did a really shitty job in actually convincing people that he deserves it. And yes, even the whole deal with his mom isn’t doing it for me. Nah fuck this guy sorry y’all, he’d be way better as a villain imo

TLDR: Fanon does it better

CHICAGO FIRE – REAR VIEW MIRROR (S01E06)

[door bell chime]

Hallie Thomas: Gabriela.

Gabby Dawson: Hey.

Hallie Thomas: Thank you for meeting me.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, of course.

Hallie Thomas: I hope it wasn’t an inconvenience.

Gabby Dawson: No, no, no, no. Not at all.

Hallie Thomas: I know you and Matt are close.

Gabby Dawson: Oh, uh…

Waitress: Can I get you something to drink?

Hallie Thomas: Uh, coffee’s fine, thank you.

I didn’t want to go to the Chief about this

because…

God, I’m so sorry.

Gabby Dawson: Oh, it’s okay. What’s… what’s wrong?

Hallie Thomas: It’s the Detective Voight thing. I didn’t, um…

I know your brother’s been trying to help.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, that’s right.

Hallie Thomas: It’s just I have never seen Matt like this, and I have

a feeling that something bad is gonna happen.

Gabby Dawson: I’m really sorry for everything you’re going

through, Hallie, I am, but I’m not sure what I can

do.

Hallie Thomas: Matt’s deposition is scheduled after his shift.

Once he testifies against Voight’s son, it’s…it’s not

worth it anymore just to prove a point.

And I’m thinking more and more that Matt

shouldn’t go through with it.

Gabby Dawson: You should tell Matt.

Hallie Thomas: I did. Last night.

He wouldn’t listen.

But I think he would if it came from you.

Tagger: You mean drop?

Kelly Severide: That’s right.

Otis Zvonecek: Zito…big-time tagger.

Leslie Shay: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’ve seen his name around.

Otis Zvonecek: Yeah? He’s hit every “L” train, bus stop, and

mailbox in Chicago.

Christopher Herrmann: You president of his fan club?

Otis Zvonecek: No. There’s a street art exhibition at the MCA.

Christopher Herrmann: This clown’s in the museum?

Otis Zvonecek: What a country. Right?

Kelly Severide: Just slide on down nice and easy. I got you.

Tagger (Zito): You called the cops!

Whoa!

Kelly Sevride: Hey!

Tagger (Zito): [struggling]

Kelly Severide: All right, now! Just drop!

(into radio) Coming down.

Matt Casey: (over radio) Copy. All clear.

Chief Boden: All good?

Otis Zvonecek: Yeah. Graffiti artist got stuck up there, Chief.

[dramatic music]

[car door shuts]

Chief Boden: Kelly.

You got no reason to be here.

Hank Voight: Oh, collecting gang intel, Chief.

Big new tag like that… gotta make sure it doesn’t

spark a turf war.

Chief Boden: You’ve seen it. Now leave.

Hank Voight: You might want to take a step back there. I don’t want

to charge you or one of your men with interfering

with a police investigation.

Chief Boden: Yeah.

Pack it up. We’re outta here.

Hank Voight: Oh, hey, Casey. You got your deposition tomorrow.

Kelly Severide: Come on, let’s go. Come on.

Hank Voight: Let me ask you, is that cute little fiancée of yours

gonna be there too? ‘Cause I gotta tell you, the

other night, when we were talking, she seemed

kinda, I don’t know, uh, shut down. But by the

end, she really started to open up.

Kelly Severide: Hey! Hey! Come on.

Matt Casey: Your day’s coming. Your day’s coming, Voight!

Chief Boden: Close the door.

[door shuts]

Chief Boden: You all right?

Matt Casey: Yeah.

Chief Boden: What do you want to do?

Matt Casey: About?

Chief Boden: You.

You want to go out on calls, stay here in the house,

take some time off?

Matt Casey: Go out on calls.

Chief Boden: Then you have to do it right.

Matt Casey: I have been.

Chief Boden: You’ve heard me say this a million times.

In this job, regardless of what’s going on in your life,

you take your eye off it for one second, people can

die.

Matt Casey: You’re right. I have heard you say that, and we’re in

agreement.

Chief Boden: I wish I could do more to fix this, but right now, it is

just a matter of trusting the system.

Look, Matt, there won’t be another warning.

[background chatter]

Kelly Severide: Hey.

Hey, look…

Look, man, you wanna hit somebody, my buddy

has got a boxing gym over in Bucktown. You get

a trainer, you glove up, you hit mitts. 5 bucks a

round. We could head over there after shift.

Matt Casey: Yeah, I’ll-I’ll think about it. Thanks.

Christopher Herrmann: Not to sound like my father-in-law, but

this is what’s wrong with America.

Otis Zvonecek: What’s wrong with America or what’s great about

America?

Christopher Herrmann: Are you kidding me? 3,000 clams for that,

and I’m out there doing side jobs for 20

dollars an hour?

Joe Cruz: Hey, Mouch is looking for you.

Christopher Herrmann: Do you know how much the taxpayers of

this city pay for graffiti removal? 50 million

a year.

Peter Mills: Uh, that… that sounds high.

Christopher Herrmann: Look it up.

All right, stop. All right, so it’s more like

25 million or something.

[laughing]

Christopher Herrmann: Either way, it’s a lot of money.

Peter Mills: Yeah.

Christopher Herrmann: And then this little wannabe hood rat…

Leslie Shay: Herrmann… it’s bold. It’s provocative.

Christopher Herrmann: Hahaha. You’re just trying to get a rise.

And look at these high society douche

bags lapping it up.

You see, this is why, when my kids get out

of high school, Cindy and me, we’re

moving to Chain O’Lakes ‘cause… I can’t

deal with this insanity.

Gabby Dawson: How long am I looking at? Realistically.

Mouch: Somewhere between 0 and 100 days.

Gabby Dawson: Oh…do you understand [chuckles] the definition

of ‘realistically’?

Mouch: There’s a lot of moving parts to this.

Gabby Dawson: They’re on your head.

Mouch: Ah.

Gabby Dawson: Have you ever even been to a suspension hearing

before?

Mouch: Of course.

Your case [Gabby sighs] is a two-demerit issue, and so

we’re gonna keep it friendly. And the more aggressive

you come across, the more guilty you’ll look. Keep

your responses short and to the point.

Gabby Dawson: All right, cool. So you’re saying you got this,

right Mouch?

Mouch: Yeah, but we still gotta prep. Where you going?

cutscene

Gabby Dawson: Hey.

Matt Casey: Hey.

Gabby Dawson: [nervous chuckle] Sorry, just what you needed,

right? One more person asking how you’re

doing.

Matt Casey: Better than nobody giving a rat’s ass, I guess.

Gabby Dawson: So… how are you holding up?

Matt Casey: I’m just hoping that luck’s on my side because in

terms of me being able to control the situation. It

hasn’t worked out so well.

Gabby Dawson: Uh… but I guess there… there is one more thing

you could do to end this whole thing, right?

Have you thought about retracting your statement?

Matt Casey: Would you?

Gabby Dawson: I would think about it.

Matt Casey: Okay. Now that you have…

Gabby Dawson: [sighs]

Matt Casey: Why would you advise me to do something you

wouldn’t?

Gabby Dawson: I…

[truck door shuts]

Lady 1: C’mon!

Matt Casey: Wait!

Leslie Shay: Where’s the victim?

CTA Driver: In the back.

Matt Casey: Shooter?

CTA Driver: Gone. I swerved when I heard the shots.

Matt Casey: Cruz, Mills, in the bus.

Cones and flares; get these cars moving.

[car horns beeping & honking]

Leslie Shay: Shot to the neck. Not breathing. Weak pulse.

Guys…

Gabby Dawson: We need your help.

Leslie Shay: Alright, get him down here.

Down here’s good. Watch his head. Watch his head.

Gabby Dawson: Okay, you gotta get an open airway or we’re gonna

lose him right now.

Here, open this.

Leslie Shay: We can’t tube him; too much mouth trauma.

Gabby Dawson: All right, surgical cric.

Leslie Shay: Not approved in the field, Dawson.

Gabby Dawson: Excuse me, sir, does that really matter to you

right now? No? Oh, okay, good.

Leslie Shay: Give it to me.

Gabby Dawson: I got it.

Leslie Shay: Dawson, give it to me. Now!

Alright, give me the tube.

Joe Cruz: We’ll get the backboard and stretcher.

[car door shuts]

Christopher Herrmann: Chief.

[whistles] Hey, keep it moving!

Let’s go, let’s go.

Chief Boden: Surgical cric?

Gabby Dawson: We could’ve waited for approval, but then he

would have been D.O.A.

Leslie Shay: It was my call, Chief. I’ll take the hit.

[tires screech, horns honk]

Matt Casey: What was that?

Man 1: What are you doing?

Matt Casey: Huh? No, you’re gotta wait.

Oh, you’re gonna do that? Go on.

[tires screeching]

Chief Boden: Casey!

Your shift is over.

Matt Casey: Oh, come on Chief!

Chief Boden: No, no, no, no. Go home. Head for the house.

Whatever you want but you are done for

today.

[truck door shuts]

Kelly Severide: Where’s Casey?

Chief.

Chief Boden: I’m not taking any more chances.

Kelly Severide: He’s doing the right thing. He’s getting his ass

kicked for it.

Chief Boden: You don’t think I know that?

Kelly Severide: Then he needs to be here where we can keep an

eye on him.

Chief Boden: Kelly, I tried that already.

Kelly Severide: So he’s better off out there by himself, pissed off,

not thinking straight…

Chief Boden: This is a firehouse…

Not some of the time, not for some of the calls.

Any man who walks through that door, he gotta be

ready. If he isn’t, he’s gonna be walking in the

other direction.

‘Cause I am a chief first and I am a friend second.

Casey’s just gonna have to find his own way from

now on.

Leslie Shay: Saline?

Gabby Dawson: [sighs] Two.

Leslie Shay: Ambo bag?

Gabby Dawson: One. Do you also want me to tell you how much

gas we have left in the ambo tank ‘cause

apparently, all I’m good for is inventory and

driving now.

Leslie Shay: Listen, one more black mark on your record between

now and Friday…

Gabby Dawson: Why even go to the hearing if you’re already

suspending me?

Leslie Shay: Maybe I don’t want to ride around with half-assed

relievers for three months. Ever thought of that?

Listen, Chief did the right thing. Gave him some time

to cool off.

He’s gonna be fine.

Otis Zvonecek: We should eat, huh?

Peter Mills: Make a sandwich.

Otis Zvonecek: [munching]

Peter Mills: So… Casey’s out for how long?

Christopher Herrmann: Chief knows that, not me.

Mouch: I got a suspension hearing to prepare for.

Send Dawson in, if you see her.

Joe Cruz: [slams fists down on table] Yo I feel like we’re sitting

around like a bunch of pussies while we let Voight

push our boy around. Why can’t we take the ball

game to him?

Christopher Herrmann: I got a wife and four kids who don’t need

their dad fired or locked up.

Joe Cruz: How ‘bout you, Mills?

Otis Zvonecek: Why aren’t you asking me?

Joe Cruz: Because I’m not talking about toilet papering Voight’s

house, O.

How ‘bout it, Mills?

Peter Mills: I’m down.

Christopher Herrmann: Okay, the both of you shut up.

Nobody’s gonna do nothin’.

Joe Cruz: So we just sit by?

Christopher Herrmann: Then go! Put on a ski mask and take on a

dirty cop, and see how far that gets you.

Gabby Dawson: What’s the latest?

Antonio Dawson: Nothing yet.

Gabby Dawson: What are you say…what, we’re still at zero?

Score one? What do you mean nothing?

Antonio Dawson: I’ve been doing plenty. But if you’re asking if I

have anything conclusive at this moment, the

answer’s no.

Gabby Dawson: Well, what have you been doing, Antonio?

Antonio Dawson: [scoffs]

Gabby Dawson: I would love to know, because this whole thing is

unravelling for Casey.

Antonio Dawson: Voight’s put the word out on the street…

we know that. So we’re looking for someone to

wear a wire. Yesterday, we busted a kid for

possession. He’s in a gang with ties to Voight.

I offered him a deal if he’d flip. Had him this

close, but he wouldn’t go.

Gabby Dawson: So offer him something else.

Antonio Dawson: [scoffs] It don’t work like that.

As long as Casey doesn’t take the bait, this

thing’s gonna play out the way we want.

So sit tight. Have a little faith in your brother.

Hallie Thomas: Why don’t we just leave? We both have vacation

time built up. We could even go longer, I’m sure

they would give you a leave of absence.

Matt Casey: When we get back… Voight will have forgotten all

about it?

Hallie Thomas: We go where he can’t find us, and we give the

cops enough time to bust him.

Come on, baby. Let’s get out of here.

Let’s regroup.

Matt Casey: Just…

[indistinct radio chatter]

Officer Bell: Matthew Casey?

Matt Casey: Yeah?

Officer Bell: We have a warrant to search your home.

Matt Casey: What?

Officer Bell: We got a tip says you’re in possession of cocaine.

Either we can search your house, or you can

produce the cocaine and your cooperation will be

taken into consideration.

Matt Casey: Voight. Detective Voight, he put you up to this?

Officer Bell: No, I don’t know any Voight.

I just know we’re coming in.

The warrant allows us to search the entire house, and

you’re allowed, by law, to stay in the house if you

remain cooperative.

Matt Casey: I’m a firefighter, Station 51. My fiancée is a doctor at

Lakeshore. Do we really look like cocaine users to

you?

Officer Bell: If you could please both go wait in the front room.

Now.

Matt Casey: Antonio Dawson. He’s a Detective in Vice. He’ll tell you

we’re being harassed by this cop. I have Antonio’s

number on my cell. Will you please just take a second

and talk to him?

Please.

Officer Madden: Yeah, this is Officer Madden.

Yeah, we have a search warrant for

Matthew Casey…

[continues indistinctly]

Matt Casey: It’s all right, baby. It’s gonna be alright.

Officer Madden: He says they’re clean.

Officer Bell: If I ever have to come back here again, no favour is

gonna get you out of it.

Oh my God.

you, it ends now, or you’re the one that’s gonna

disappear.

[gun cocks]

Hank Voight: Yeah, I can respect that.

Go ahead. Use it.

You retract that statement against my son… or you

She had a sternal fracture, a large

Mouch: You’re already talking too much. The question was what did

you see?

Gabby Dawson: Uh, I saw a young girl in danger of dying and so I

felt it was necessary…

Mouch: Feelings… no feelings. Thoughts. Convictions.

Gabby Dawson: Okay, fine. I thought that… I knew that I had to do

something immediately, and that something was

it in. Flames went up the service elevator

shaft, spread out on the fifth.

What about the main elevator?

Christopher Herrmann: Otis just cleared it. He’s coming out with a

few more tenants.

Chief Boden: Five more ambos, and Chief Hatcher’s on the way.

Leslie Shay: We’re gonna need ‘em. Anticipate at least five reds in

there.

Gabby Dawson: We can’t wait for Hatcher with this many

non-responsives.

We gotta set up triage.

Chief Boden: Do it. You’re in charge here.

Gabby Dawson: All right.

(into radio) This is Ambulance 61. Give me an

EMS plan one...[continues indistinctly]

Leslie Shay: Hey, Chief?

Chief Boden: She’ll be fine.

Leslie Shay: I know. But where are all the people?

No one’s coming out of the other side of the building.

Chief Boden: (into radio) Squad 3, check out the West Side fire

stairwell.

Kelly Severide: (into radio) Already on three. Must be a blockage.

Capp and Hadley have the east.

Matt Casey: Severide!

Kelly Severide: Hey, I’m clearing a path.

Hey, is there anybody back there?

Hey.

Victim 1 (lady): They… They can’t breathe. It’s pitch black in there.

There’s people in the hall.

Kelly Severide: If you’re mobile, keep walking.

Slow and steady. There’s paramedics waiting.

Hey, I’ll take this.

Matt Casey: I’m going up further.

Kelly Severide: Okay.

Kelly Severide: (into radio) Got at least four reds heading to triage.

this kid safe.

Mouch: Come here, pal.

Leslie Shay: You gotta get that tube down her throat.

Paramedic: I can’t. There’s too much swelling.

Leslie Shay: Then cric her.

Paramedic: I’ve never done it.

Leslie Shay: Dawson, you’ve gotta cric this woman, or she’s a

goner.

Gabby Dawson: Alright, hand me a scalpel.

Chief Hatcher: Who’s the lead here?

Gabby Dawson: You’re looking at her.

You may as well keep looking over my shoulder,

Antonio Dawson: Curtis is gonna do it.

Chief Boden: When? Where?

Antonio Dawson: Now. He already put in a call to Voight for a

I’m gonna prep him while my techs wire him up.

Then we’re good to go.

Now, we got one shot at this. There’s about a

dozen things that could flush it down the drain,

so don’t say anything to anyone. Don’t even

mention his name out loud, ‘cause Voight’s got

ears all over this city.

I’ll let you know once it goes down.

Antonio Dawson: [sighs]

Fine. Let’s go.

Hearing Officer: The charges you face, Miss Dawson, are both very

serious and very troubling.

Mouch: We disagree whole heartedly, Sir.

Hearing Officer: Miss Dawson chose to perform a procedure that

was clearly outside of her jurisdiction, and that

could have mortally injured the patient in her

care.

Gabby Dawson: I…

Mouch: J… To refresh my memory, could you please read the full

charges out loud? I believe we have that right.

Hearing Officer: Gabriela Dawson is charged with wilful neglect of

protocol, and of practising a medical procedure

that she was neither trained nor certified…

Gabby Dawson: No, I have been trained in that procedure, and I

knew exactly what I was doing, and how much

time we didn’t have. I’m also currently taking

pre-med classes, where I’ve re-studied every

procedure…

Mouch: I’m sorry.

Hearing Officer: And I am studying for my pilot’s license,

Miss Dawson, but that does not mean I

can land a 747 in a blizzard.

Gabby Dawson: But you’d sure as hell try if you were about to

crash.

Hearing Officer: You are lucky that girl is alive, or there would be

criminal charges pending against you.

Gabby Dawson: If saving a kid’s life is now a criminal offense, then

maybe it’s your damn protocol that’s out of

whack, and the wrong people are making the

rules.

Mouch: Ten-minute break?

Hearing Officer: Five.

Gabby Dawson: You didn’t even remember the charges.

Mouch: I was stalling for time.

Gabby Dawson: What? Why?

Hearing Officer: We’re ready.

[footsteps]

Mouch: Ah…

Gabby Dawson: Hey Madeline.

Lady 2 (Madeline’s mother): I’m sorry. Are we too late?

Gabby Dawson: Hi.

Mouch: Uh, please enter into the record witnesses number two,

three, and four.

Curtis: What’s up with you, V?

Deshawn said there’s money to be made on the firefighter.

I want his deal.

Hank Voight: He tell you who it is?

Curtis: Yeah, but I wasn’t really paying attention till he said

something about the money.

Hank Voight: His name is Casey.

Curtis: How much?

Hank Voight: Depends on services rendered.

Curtis: Well, Deshawn said his boys got 5 for jumping him. I figure I

could do a lot worse for a grand.

Hank Voight: Bro, you stop him for good, I’ll give you 2.

Police Officers: Let’s see your hands!

Don’t move!

Come on, get ‘em up!

Oh, that’s great.That’s great to hear.

Oh yeah, okay. See you at the shindig. Bye.

suspension party tomorrow night.

Joe Cruz: So how much money does she lose, like, 2 grand?

Otis Zvonecek: [sighs] A little bit more but if we all chip in

20 bucks, we might be able to put a dent in

it.

Christopher Herrmann: Or…[sighs]

Otis Zvonecek: It’s got that signature wild style of his and it has

this lovely unfinished quality to it. He almost fell

Christopher Herrmann: Unbelievable.

Otis Zvonecek: Can you hold on one second?

Thanks, pal. Hello?

Hey Serg, how are you?

Listen, I’m gonna have to give you a call back.

I’m on the other line with a different buyer. But if

he starts dragging his feet, it’s all yours buddy.

All right [chuckles], thanks, pal. Hello?

Alright, 2,000.

Wings of Fire (A MHA Fanfic): The Storm

The day consists of quirk trials where we test the lengths our quirks can go. I stand over a canister of gasoline and light the canister with my flames. The flames appear blue to the eye, unlike Shoto’s which is red. I focus my eyes on the flame, watching it swish and move as my eyes narrow. I focus on the center of it and watch it grow. Then, I try the opposite, making it shrink until there’s only ash.

A crowd forms behind me.

”Woah! That was awesome. I’ve never seen fire look like that,” A girl with a long dark ponytail says behind me.

”It’s a gene thing,” I say, starting to feel the heat.

I hyperventilate as I feel myself start to sweat.

”Are those the side effects?” She asks.

”Yeah. I-I start to sweat profusely. But my ice softens it,” I say using my other hand to cool down, placing it across my neck.

”You wouldn’t last a day with me, hot stuff. With me there’s no cool down,” Bakugo taunts.

”And what makes you think I’m interested in you or your quirk?” I ask.

”Nitroglycerin and sweat create naturally from my skin, that’s what makes my explosions work,” Bakugo says, putting out his hands to show off his palm explosions.

”Aww little fireworks, how cute for someone with such a big ego,” I say, rolling my eyes.

”Shut up, woman!” Bakugo says stubbornly.

”Bite me,” I say through gritted teeth.

I roll my eyes and return to my training before I realize that the girl is still standing next to me.

”Fascinated, huh?” I ask.

”Oh! I just...I wish I had such a cool mix of quirks,” She says shyly.

”What is your quirk?” I ask.

She hesitates.

”I- I can create things...through my chest. As long as I eat enough food, I can sprout anything out of my chest,” She says.

”That’ll sure be a hit with the boys. And plus you’re a nice looking girl,” I say confidently.

”You think so?” She asks.

”Sure, I mean your pretty and you’ve been nice to me so far. Why not?” I say.

”That means a lot coming from someone so beautiful,” She says.

I stop in my tracks.

”That's the first time I’ve ever heard that,” I laugh.

”You’ve never been called beautiful?” She asks.

”Nope,” I say.

”Not even by your dad? You know, when you go out on a date or if you’re going to dinner?” She asks.

I huff and think of my memories of my father.

”My dad was never kind to me. He doesn’t know what emotions are like. He’s cold-hearted even for a hero with a fire quirk. If you ask me, he’s an asshole. If you ask everyone else, he’s a saint,” I say honestly.

”I’m so sorry. That was so rude of me. I shouldn’t have gotten so personal,” She says nervously.

”It’s fine. The names Aki by the way,” I say.

”Momo Yaoyozuru,” Momo introduces.

”What a name! Can I just call you Momo-chan?” I ask.

”Sure!” Momo agrees.

We take a break for lunch and I pop in my headphones when I grab my lunch. I get a couple of spring rolls, some honey butter chips and a Dr. Pepper. I take my tray and scan the room for somewhere to sit. The group from class sits together all except Bakugo, who is no where to be found.

I shrug and I take my lunch and search for a place to eat.

I find an empty classroom and I sit in the back hopping on the back table.

I much on my spring rolls, looking out the window to think.

So many different quirks, so many different characters, meanwhile everyone idolizes me. What did I do to deserve all this? This praise and attention is nothing like at home. The world has no idea what I’ve been through. I just don’t know why.

Suddenly, the classroom door opens.

”What the hell are you doing here?” Bakugo says, revealing himself.

I roll my eyes and take off my headphones, hopping off the table.

”I figured your little goons didn’t want me around. Shouldn’t you be with them?” I ask.

”You think I’d really hang with those losers? Pfft, no way. They’d rather stick to your kind of crowd,” Bakugo scoffs.

”‘My kind of crowd’? The hell does that mean?” I ask.

”You think you’re so slick, huh? I know you put up a front to make yourself look good just because you're a big old celebrity,” Bakugo says, stepping towards me.

”I don’t have to make myself look good for anyone. And for your information, I’m not a celebrity, I’m not hot stuff, and I’m certainly not a loser. Now, let me eat my damn lunch,” I spit back at him.

His eyes widen softly at my words. Then he tsks, looking away and blushing.

”Whatever. I’m leaving,” Bakugo says.

”Actually...I kind of like your company,” I say.

Bakugo raises a brow, and a smirk appears on his face.

”Oh really now? Have you changed your mind about me?” Bakugo asks slyly.

“Not sure yet, I thought I was a loser to you,” I say.

”You tease,” Bakugo scoffs through his smirk.

”See ya later, hot stuff,” Bakugo says with a wink.

”Oh shut up, you angry Pomeranian,” I say with a smile.

”Oi! Don’t call me that,” Bakugo says.

”Okay then, ‘suki,” I say, making up a cute nickname to tick him off.

”First name basis huh? Kinda cute coming from those lips of yours,” He flirts.

”It was fucking joke, ditto,” I say returning to my usual tone.

Bakugo’s smirk fades and he exits the room, leaving me alone once again.

——————————————

I wait for Shoto at the front of the school to walk home.

He appears soon with that same concerned look on his face.

”You okay?” I ask.

”Yeah, dad just told me that he won’t be home until later tonight. There’s a situation with some villains in Kyushu, he wants be there before All Might does,” Shoto explains.

”Speaking of All Might, he looks just about worn out. That’s probably why dad’s taking advantage that he’s here at UA,” I comment.

”Hey, Todoroki-chan!” Mina calls, waving to me from the other side of the gate.

”Hi, Ashido-chan,” I wave back.

”Why didn’t you sit with us at lunch today?” Sero asks.

”I got a little caught up with registration, you know. Getting some paperwork filled out,” I lie.

I peak a glance at Bakugo who stands beside Kirishima, staring with that familiar glare.

”Anyways, these knuckle-heads were just doing what they do, so you didn’t miss much,” Kirishima explains.

”Catch you tomorrow?” Mina asks.

”Sure!” I say, before returning to Shoto’s side.

”First day and you're already making friends with the class clowns?” Shoto asks.

”What’d you expect? They’re fun. Everything can’t be serious all the time, and plus we’re going to be together for the next three years,” I say.

”We have a lot at stake though. Just try not to embarrass yourself too much,” Shoto says.

”So this is what this is about. Me embarrassing our family? Our family was embarrassed by our own actions the minute Touya left. And the minute Dad decided to start ‘training you’ and the minute mom gave you that scar,” I scoff.

”That’s not what I meant, Aki,” Shoto says.

”So then what did you mean?” I ask.

”I’m trying to protect you from yourself. You can be reckless sometimes. I don’t want you making a fool of yourself with dad’s eyes on you. I’m just trying to help you prove to dad that your capable of these responsibilities,” Shoto explains.

”If I’m capable of doing these responsibilities, I don’t need help doing them. The one has to prove that to dad is me. You already made a mark in his book, that’s for sure,” I scoff.

Shoto lets out a sigh and we walk to the train station together.

”Welcome home twins! How was your dad at school!” Fuyumi shouts from the kitchen as she cooks.

”It was okay,” Shoto says calmly.

”It was great! I made some friends our teacher’s...interesting,” I say honestly, switching to my house shoes.

”Well, I guess that’s hero school for you! I mean I can personally say that being a teacher is hard, I mean-“

”Here we go again,” Shoto and I say at once, rolling our eyes.

Fuyumi goes on a familiar ramble about her being a teacher and me and Shoto continue our routine. Eating our pre-dinner snacks.

I sit on the couch by Natsu, who’s focused on his game of Overwatch.

”What’s up, Aki?” The college student says.

”Nothing much. You get any serious kills?” I ask.

”I got a quadruple kill at the beginning of the game. By the way, did you switch mains? I saw you had more game time with Widow than Sombra on your account,” Natsu says.

I slap his arm and he flinched from the pain.

”Why’d you look through my account?” I yell.

”Aki, stop hitting your brother!” Fuyumi says from the kitchen.

”Sorry Fuyumi,” Me and Natsu say in unison.

I huff at Natsu and he refocuses on his game, stealing a pocky stick from my package.

”H-Hey!” I exclaim.

Natsu laughs as he munched on the snack while moving the joysticks and pressing the buttons on his controller.

”You wanna play a match?” Natsu asks.

I nod and snatch the controller from him.

Me and Natsu go back and forth playing rounds, while eating snacks.

”Aki, go wash up. Dinner’s almost ready,” Fuyumi reminds.

”Sure,” I say, handing the controller back to Natsu.

I drag my feet behind he walking the long halls of our home to the stairs towards the bathroom. I turn on the shower and turn it to the hot water. The bathroom starts to fill with steam and I inhale it, making my tense muscles relax.

The best part of my day...where I get to unwind and wash off the negative energy.

Later, I throw on a baggy t-shirt and some shorts and head to the dinner table.

”Aki, you got a letter from Mom,” Shoto reminds me, handing me a white envelope.

I take the letter and put it to the side.

Fuyumi gives me my plate of food and we all start to eat.

”Shoto, did you make any friends?” Fuyumi asks.

”A couple,” Shoto says shyly.

”That’s great! It’s good to have a couple friends when going into high school,” Fuyumi says.

”Sure, but it can get real competitive. There’s this one guy that I’m holding out for though,” I say.

”You mean, he peeks your interest? Romantically?” Fuyumi asks.

Shoto practically spits out his own food from laughing.

”No! I mean, he flirts with me but he’s a total jackass. A total bully,” I say rolling my eyes.

”Maybe it’ll be like one of those romance mangas where the bad boy softens up with the good girl,” Natsu comments.

Him and Shoto laugh at the situation.

”You think I’m the good girl? That’s more suited for any of the other girls at UA. But certainly not me,” I scoff.

“She‘s got a point. Her comedic timing overpowers his egotistical comments. I would know because I’m a witness to it,” Shoto says.

”See?” I nod.

”Como sea (whatever it is), I think you should start looking for a boyfriend, you're coming of age and your gonna be sixteen in January,” Fuyumi says.

”Ayy, la cumpleañera,” Natsu says jokingly, rubbing my head like a small child.

”I get it! Anyways, I’m not so worried about that though. I’m just trying to focus on my studies right now,” I say.

“If you wanted to focus you’d be sitting at the front of class with me and not joking around with that group in the back,” Shoto comments.

”Loosen up, bro! You think I want to be cracking joke 24-7? The work is all that matters to me and if I make friends or even get a boyfriend along the way, fine by me. The thing that’s important to me is making you all proud,” I say to my siblings.

They all give me a small smile before continuing back to our dinner.

The next day, we are assigned to go to the support classes and request hero costumes for our training. I walk with Momo towards the support class.

"Hey guys, I'm Mei Hatsume! I'm essentially in charge of the support class and I'll be helping you with some of my babies!" A girl with pink hair and steampunk clothes says.

"Babies?!" we all exclaim.

"My projects, silly," Mei says.

We wipe sweat from our brows and move into the workshop.

"So, what kind of costume are you getting? I mean.. since your quirk doesn't allow much...leeway," I say, looking glancing down at her chest.

"Even Todoroki-chan is intimidated," Denki says, standing next to Mineta, a short kid with grapes for hair.

"Don't make me scold you, Kaminari," I scoff, catching his dialogue.

Denki blushes furiously and Mineta laughs at him.

"You're gonna get scolded by the pretty girl!" Mineta teases.

I turn back to Yaoyozuru and roll my eyes.

"Well, I was thinking of something that is a little more fitted since my quirk comes from...my chest. But I might need something that's similar to Midnight's," Momo explains shyly.

"You mean something provocative?" Mina asks, sneaking behind her.

"Shh! The boys will get ideas," Momo scolds, hushing the alien girl down.

"I need a strong material that doesn't break through my acid," Mina says.

"I need a costume that weighs me down," Uraraka says, joining the conversation.

"Because of your quirk?" I ask her.

"I can make things float! It seems weird but when I activate my floating, I lose control sometimes, so I need something to weigh me down a bit," Uraraka explains.

"Actually, that's kinda cool!" Asui, a girl with long green hair and a frog quirk says, also joining.

"I wish I had such a cool quirk," A voice says.

We all turn and see Hagakure, the invisible hero standing behind us.

"What do you mean? Your invisible! That's the most practical quirk," Jiro says.

"I think Todoroki-chan's quirk is awesome! She can control fire and ice," Momo says.

The girls turn to me with wonder in their eyes.

"That's so freaking cool!" Mina says.

"That's like having two quirks," Uraraka says.

"Sort of. But it's kind of hard to balance. I'm not effected by my ice quirk but if I use my fire quirk too often, I pass out," I explain, scratching my neck nervously.

"So you'll need something that distributes both quirks evenly," Mei says, barging in.

"Yeah, you could say that," I say nervously.

"I would say that since your quirk comes from your hands, that some metal wrist plates would regulate the temperatures of your quirk so you don't overheat. Where else do you think you might need plating?" Mei asks.

"My waist, it gets sore when I switch back and forth," I say.

"Hmm, how about a metal corset? Regulates your temperature, form fitting, not too tight, and since the cold doesn't bother you, you'd be nice and loose. the most it'll be is a bit heavy, so are you good with carrying weight?" Mei suggests.

"Yeah, sure I am," I say confidently.

"Nice, then underneath we can just have a loose and airy sheen fabric. Let's say, almost a mini-dress. I think perriwinkle would look best on you," Mei says, jotting it down in her journal.

"My fire is blue, so that fits," I say with a giggle.

"Woah!" The girl exclaim.

"Great! I'll have some of my assistants work on that! It's not too complicated unlike the boys's costumes," Mei comments.

I give her a smile before she turns to the other girls.

"Say, Aki. You think you could score me date with your brother, he's kinda hot for a 15 year old," Mina jokes.

"Jeez, Ashido," I scoff, rolling my eyes.

"What, he's a good-looking guy," Mina says.

"He is kinda cute, and he's sweet too," Momo says.

"And how would you know that?" I ask her.

"First of all, I sit next to him in class, second I listen to his conversations from time to time, and thirdly he gave me his number," Momo says confidently.

"My shy ass brother gave you his number?" I ask, shocked from her words.

"Yeah, I don't know why but he seems a little interested," Momo says shyly.

My eyes widen from her words. I can hardly believe that Shoto would even want a girlfriend, being so busy with his focus on his hero work. As days go by, I can hardly recognize my brother, my father's influence on him starting to shine on him as he interacts with our classmates and gains tasks. I can practically see the gears in his head turning as he thinks to himself. But to think he'd want a relationship? That's odd indeed.

"Good luck with that one, he won't say much. And if he does, call me for advice," I say to Momo.

"Yeah, sure. I mean you are his twin," Momo giggles.

The bell rings for lunch and we all go to cafeteria.

As I pick up my lunch, I glance behind me and see the groups sitting together.

I grab my usual lunch, and walk to the familiar classroom with my headphones in.

I open the door and immediately rip my headphones off my ears.

Bakugo sits on the table in the back of the classroom, waiting for me.

"I knew you'd come back here," Bakugo says slyly.

"Leave me alone, Bakugo," I scoff.

"What happened to that cute nickname you gave me? And don't say your sick of me, cause you and I both know you wouldn't be here if you were at least interested in me," Bakugo asks, recalling the last time we were together.

"God, you're such an idiot. I could care less about whether or not your interested in me. All I said was I liked your company. It didn't have to go farther than that," I say, grabbing a spring roll.

"Fine, why do you even come in here anyways?" Bakugo asks out of boredom.

"To think, get away from people like you, process things," I say.

"But thought-"

"Yeah, I do like your company but don't you think your ego gets a little bigger around other people?" I ask.

"Sure, but it's a competitive school. And when your trying to prove your the best, competition is your number one enemy, people who'll try to drag your ass into the pits of hell," Bakugo says, honestly but harshly.

"You're starting to sound like my father," I comment.

"Endeavor? That old man can rot in hell too. He's a good for nothing piece of shit if you ask me," Bakugo adds.

His comment peeks my interest.

"You don't like Endeavor, huh?" I ask.

"Hell no. No offence by the way," Bakugo says.

"I didn't read you as the type to apologize but it's all good. If anything I have more reason to hate him too," I say snarkily.

"But he's your dad," Bakugo says, trying to justify my opinion.

"Yeah, and a shitty one too. But you don't need to know the details...at least not yet," I say, taking a sip of my drink.

"Spill it, Todoroki," Bakugo orders.

"I said...not yet," I bite back.

"Whatever, fucking tease," Bakugo tsks.

"Angry pomeranian," I tsk.

"Stop calling me that!" Bakugo exclaims.

"Whatever, your hairs' spikey and you're blond, so to me you look like a pomeranian," I comment.

"And to me, you're a refrigerated hot Cheeto," Bakugo adds.

"At least I'm tasty," I wink.

Bakugo growls and mutters under his breath at my comment.

"What? You never had a girl talk back to you before?" I ask.

"No," He mutters.

"Well then, I guess that serves me as the first girl who's ever had to put up with your ass," I say snarkily.

Bakugo stands up and pins me to the table.

"Listen, woman. I'm tired of this little act, are you scared of me? Intimidated? Is that why you keep treating me like I'm a kid?" Bakugo growls.

"You're cute when you're angry," I say through a smirk.

Bakugo rolls his eyes.

"I'm not scared of you, I just think you've never had your buttons pushed because you think everything in life is gonna get handed to you," I say honestly.

"Says the daughter of the number two hero," Bakugo snarls.

"Says the boy who hasn't even had a girlfriend yet. I don't know what they fed you back in middle school, but you won't get a single girl with that narcissistic mindset," I say.

'And what? You gonna straighten me out? Teach me to be soft and shit?" Bakugo says.

'I didn't say that. What I mean is, if you wanna talk to me, your gonna have to grow some balls first," I spit.

Bakugo starts to make small explosions from his palms but before he can do anything I freeze the table completely. I slip out from under him.

"Oi! Where the hell do you think you're going? You're not gonna leave me here!" Bakugo yells.

"Yes I am," I say turning to him with a smile, before closing door of the classroom and walking towards the cafeteria.

I spot the group and Mina waves to me.

"Finally!" Mina exclaims, pulling a chair out for me.

I sit with the group and can faintly hear the loud scream of Bakugo from the halls.

I smirk to myself and join the group's conversation.

You still look like a movie (DickWally, side JayTim)

When Gotham Academy offered him a position, Wally jumped at the chance. He’d trained as a teacher here, after all, and he thought the city could use all the help it could get.

The memories of grad school were a mixed bag, as these things tended to be. Living prices in Gotham had been low, still were, which had been what allowed Wally to truly break away from his father for the first time. He’d made his first best friend here and had his heart broken.

That had been ten years ago, though. When he arrived at school the week before the term started, Wally was determined to make new memories.

His hiring had been kinda last-minute, so he didn’t expect any arrangements to have been made for his first day. Apparently, the old teacher had been kidnapped by a clown-penguin or something? Gotham was so weird.

But there was a figure waiting for him at the gates. And he looked familiar.

Wally blinked. “Jason?”

Jason Todd grinned and ground out his cigarette. “Hi, Wally. I’m your welcome committee.”

So Dick’s delinquent little brother had grown up to become a teacher, too, huh? Who’d have thought? The students they met on the corridors clearly liked him, though, judging by the enthusiastic greetings they got. Jason was kinda doing a half-assed job of showing him around, though, soon abandoning it entirely to drag Wally into one of the classrooms.

A pale, dark-haired young man gave Jason a wave, then smiled politely at Wally. “Hi, I don’t think we’ve met.”

Wally was about to introduce himself, but Jason intervened. “Wally, this is Tim Drake. He teaches CS and, occasionally, Math. Tim, this Wally, our new Chemistry teacher.”

“West?” Tim asked, peering at Wally’s face. “Wait, are you that Wally?”

“Uhm.” Wally didn’t know how to answer that question.

Luckily, Jason seemed to know exactly what Tim was talking about. “Yes. Yes, he is.”

Wally watched in confusion as Tim’s smile suddenly turned a lot more genuine. “Welcome to Gotham Academy, then, Wally. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Wally was just going to ignore that. “Thanks. Good to be here. You another brother?” Wally had always bet Dick that Bruce Wayne’s adoptions wouldn’t stop at two. That man screamed ‘father energy’ as loudly as ‘will not be in a stable long-term relationship.’ Of course, he’d adopt.

“Sort of.”

Jason rolled his eyes. “Definitely. You know that if we’d divorce, Bruce would sign the papers in a heartbeat.”

“I’m a grown man.”

“You think that’ll stop him?”

Oh. Okay, then.

One of the reasons Wally had been so eager to leave his old school had been the constantly-reinforced need to stay in the closet. And here he was and the first two dudes he met were married to each other.

“Anyway,” Tim pointedly turned back to Wally, “Dick will be so happy to see you.”

Would he, though? And more importantly - “Does he teach here?”

“Does he ever.”

“Jason’s just here on loan,” Tim explained. “He usually teaches at the other end of town. Dick’s the one that roped him into this.”

“That’s cool. That you’re doing that, I mean; in my old school people always refused to help out even when we didn’t have an English teacher for six months—”

“Right,” Jason said. “Let’s get going.”

This was good, Wally thought as he followed Jason through even more corridors. He’d get to see Dick again, but he’d have time to prepare for it. Once he sorted through the mix of dread and joy rushing through him at the prospect, he’d be fine. Great, even. Totally cool.

They turned a corner, and Jason called out: “Yo, Dick, check out who just joined our school!”

Dick Grayson turned around to where he’d been talking to one of the administrators, and. Uh.

Wow.

Dick, as a teenager, had been short and wiry. As a young man, he’d been the epitome of an athlete, lean and with a flexibility that had caused Wally some sleepless nights.

As a man in his thirties, he was a total fucking knockout, Jesus. Where had that jawline come from?? Wally hadn’t acquired anything like that. It was unfair!

“Wall-Man!”

“Robin!” Wally called back, unable to resist that smile or the hug Dick immediately drew him into.

“I haven’t seen you in ages!” Dick grinned. “Awesome to have you here, Walls.”

See, that was the thing about Dick. He might be one of the weirdest people Wally knew, thanks to his family, but also the nicest. He’d even pretend it hadn’t been Wally’s massive, creepy crush on him that had caused him to flee to the other side of the planet.

“Yeah, well, last thing I heard, you were in China. What in God’s name possessed you to come back here?”

Dick shrugged, running a hand through his hair. “I dunno, man, it always comes back to this, doesn’t it?”

Considering the situation, he and Dick in a hallway in Gotham, Wally had to agree. “I guess.”

When the silence stretched on a bit too long, Dick finally looked away from Wally. “Hey, Jason, if you want, I can take over the tour—”

Jason had already left.

It was incredible how easy it was to fall back into old patterns with Dick. Two months in and Wally was as regularly a guest in Dick’s office as Dick was at Wally’s apartment after work, which is to say, almost every day, including today.

“Do you need anything else?” he heard Dick say. The group of students shook their heads, so Wally had no qualms about walking in.

“Walls, hey,” Dick smiled when he saw him. “Lemme just finish that form, and I’m all yours.”

“That’s what I like to hear.” Wally was dying to tell Dick about the shit John from 4a had tried to pull away, but it would need to wait until the group of students that was still lingering outside had moved out of earshot.

“See, I told you he’d be taken,” he heard one of them say. “Guys like that don’t reach their thirties single. He’s certainly not interested in you.”

“Oh, shut up!”

“Don’t be sad,” a third voice interjected helpfully. “Mr Grayson is like the hottest teacher around. No shame in losing out.”

Wally would very much like to tell them how much he resented the implication he would go for a teenage girl if Dick were slightly less hot.

Wait, what was he thinking?

Wally glanced at Dick. He was still focused on his paperwork and hadn’t heard anything.

Good. Last thing Wally needed was for his stupid crush to fuck things up between them again.

“So that’s happening again, huh?”

“...why are you crowding me into a wall?” Wally asked curiously. It was quite impressive, really, the way Jason towered over him despite not being that much taller. If Wally weren’t so sure he could outrun Jason, he would even feel slightly intimidated.

Jason backed off a bit, still glowering. “Just be glad it’s me and not the munchkin parade. Damian was all for locking you two into an attic at swordpoint.” He pointed his thumb vaguely into the direction of Dick’s office. “I’ve heard the students discuss running interference, Wally. This has to stop.”

Wally sighed. Trust the Waynes to have figured him out. “Am I that obvious?”

“Not obvious enough, apparently.” Jason snorted. “Do us all a favor and actually kiss him this time. He’s a dumbass who thinks this has always been one-sided.”

“Well, yeah.” Wally’s brain decided to skip right over ‘kiss him,’ because what. “It has, I’m just being stupid; I know Dick isn’t interested in me that way, but it’s so nice to have him back, he’s my best friend and I missed him so much, that’s more important than being in love with him.”

“I think that you need to kiss him,” Jason said again, more loudly, and why was he speaking so loudly, almost as if he wanted someone else than Wally to hear it—

Wally turned.

Dick was gaping at him. There wasn’t a better word for it. Even he couldn’t make that level of ‘wtf’ look attractive.

Of course, he’d heard all of that. Wally wanted to sink into the ground. “You, uh. Maybe wanna talk about that?”

“Yeah,” Dick nodded. “Yeah, I think we should.” He made toward his office but abruptly turned back before he’d finished the movement. “No, actually, we should follow Jason’s advice.”

Wally heard grumbling behind him. “I’ve been saying.” He’d tear Jason a new one for this, he swore, right after he found out what Dick meant by that.

And then he did find out and forgot all about Jason Todd, because Dick was—rather predictably, but still incomprehensibly to Wally—kissing him, and that was more important than anything else.

The first few years after Dick had left, Wally had idly fantasized about this. In his mind, there had been elaborate love confessions that displayed a degree of coherency neither of them ever possessed in real life; kisses in the rain, maybe, or at an airport; Dick somehow swooping in and rescuing Wally from what his life had become.

Later, when he’d started getting his shit together, the phantasies turned more mundane. What it would be like to have Dick with him again. How Dick would laugh at Wally’s impression of his annoying boss; whether he’d get along with Wally’s new friends; what Dick’s opinion on fidget toys might be.

And yes, how it would feel to be kissing him the corridor for the entire world to see. That, too.

The answer?

Even better than Wally could’ve ever imagined.

Audio

Over nine minutes of material here as Joe Iconis and Will Roland alternately provide explanatory introductions for “More Than Survive,” “I Love Play Rehearsal,” “Two-Player Game,” “A Guy That I’d Kinda Be Into,” “Loser Geek Whatever,” “Halloween,” “Michael in the Bathroom,” “The Smartphone Hour (Rich Set A Fire),” “The Pants Song,” and “Voices in My Head.”

Transcriptions!!

Hey, I'm Will Roland from Be More Chill, and this next track, "More Than Survive," is from Be More Chill's original Broadway cast recording; it is our opening number where we follow our leading man, Jeremy Heere, as he travels throughout an average day at school. In it, we get to watch Jeremy get tortured by everyone around him, and also tortured by himself, and the voices in his head, and it really rocks! It's a lot of fun to do every night, and I hope that you have fun listening to it.

—

Hi, this is Joe Iconis, writer of Be More Chill, the musical, and this song is "I Love Play Rehearsal." Which is the first song that our leading lady, Christine Canigula, sings, and the song just sort of encapsulates her feelings on theatre, and on life—y'know, she's a character who's really excited about theatre at this moment in her life, and all she wants to do is express that excitement to anyone who will listen. And so, this is the song that sort of encapsulates her as a human being. And, uh, the performance by Stephanie Hsu is pretty spectacular. It won several awards in my amateur theatre awards that I hold, uh, every month in my own apartment. So, "I Love Play Rehearsal."

—

Hey, everybody, I'm Will Roland from Be More Chill—"Two-Player Game" is the buddy-cop fun friendship song on our show; features myself and George Salazar as Jeremy and Michael, these are two guys who are supremely uncool and—and supremely uninteresting, but the thing that they have is each other, and their friendship, and this is a song wherein we find them, uh, playing video games, and, uh, discussing life together. On the surface you might think, "Oh, this song is about video games," but this song is actually...about friendship.

—

Hi, this is Joe Iconis, writer of Be More Chill, the Broadway musical, and this is "A Guy That I'd Kinda Be Into," sung by Stephanie Hsu and our incredible Be More Chill cast, and this song—it's a song that happens, uh, sorta towards the end of Act 1, and, uh, our leading lady, Christine Canigula, says that she has something that she needs to tell our leading man, Jeremy. And we think that this is going to be the sort of classic musical theatre love song, but what she, uh, lays on him is not quite that? Take particular note of the really, really cool orchestration done by Charlie Rosen; uh, this song is a song that could feel like a sort of very generic pop-rock tune, but it has so much character, uh, the instrument choice is so specific, there's such an undercurrent of technology in this song, even though it's kind of a bop.

—

Hi, everybody, I'm Will Roland! From Be More Chill. Uh, this next track, "Loser Geek Whatever," is from Be More Chill, the Broadway musical; it takes place at the end of Act 1, and, uh, in this moment we find our leading man, Jeremy Heere—he is alone onstage, and he has just been told by his SQUIP—uh, played by Jason Tam—the SQUIP, which is a supercomputer which is implanted in his brain and instructing him how to be more chill—the SQUIP has told him that in order to make this transformation and become the cool guy that he wants to be, he has to get rid of his best friend, Michael Mell, and leave his old life behind and become this person that, uh, that he thinks he's always wanted to become. My friend, Joe Iconis, often describes it as the—the "anti-Defying Gravity," because instead of singing about becoming yourself, he's singing about becoming someone who is not himself. This is: "Loser Geek Whatever!"

—

This is Joe Iconis, the writer of Be More Chill, the great big Broadway musical, and this song is called "Halloween." "Halloween" is our great big opener of Act 2; it takes place, unsurprisingly, at a Halloween party—the sort of ultimate suburban high school Halloween house party. There's debauchery, there's people dressed as killer clowns, it's sort of everything that you want and dread from a high school party. This song is notable because, uh, one of the main inspirations for the score of Be More Chill is the John Carpenter film, Halloween, and, uh, this song, uh, just completely stopped trying to reference it, and, in fact, it just stole its title! So here is..."Halloween," from Be More Chill.

—

Hi, this is Joe Iconis, writer of Be More Chill! The Broadway musical. This song is called "Michael in the Bathroom," it is a song that's—has been a lot of people's, uh, sort of gateway drug into the world of Be More Chill. The song takes place in Act 2, and, uh, the character of Michael Mell, who is the second banana character in our show, he's sort of the sidekick to the leading man, uh, Jeremy—Michael, uh, has been ignored by Jeremy up to this point in the show, uh, formerly his best friend—they have this big fight in the bathroom, Jeremy leaves his best friend alone in the bathroom, uh, and Michael, uh, depressed, and with this raging Halloween house party going on outside the door, sings this song, and the—the performance by George Salazar is one of the things that kinda catapulted Be More Chill from being this, y'know, sort of, uh, musical oddity that lived in the—the nether regions of social media, uh, to being, uh, a musical in New York City! Um, it's just one of my favorite performances of a song that I've ever heard, let alone one that I've written, check it out! George Salazar, singing: "Michael in the Bathroom" from: Be More Chill.

—

Hey, everybody! I'm Will Roland, from Be More Chill. This next track, "The Smartphone Hour," in parenthesis: "Rich Set A Fire," is a song that takes place in the second act of Be More Chill—it is this massive, uh, maximalist technicolor extravaganza. What happens is there's a big Halloween party, and then at the end of the party, uh, we see this one kid, Rich, um, sort of really—really, like, uh, tweakin' out crazy, and we're like, "Oh, is he okay?" And we find out, uh, in the first chorus of this song that Rich has, in fact, uh, committed a heinous act. And throughout we get to see all of the kids at school disseminate this information and—and share it amongst themselves, and it's really about, y'know, the way in which news and gossip can spread in the 21st century, and it's very much our homage to, uh, "The Telephone Hour" from Bye Bye Birdie mashed up with some 21st-century lunacy. As the song really ramps up, it becomes this sort of, like, pep-rally cheerleader situation, so imagine human pyramids, and people flying through the air, and—and air-raid sirens, and, uh, just the most insane experience you could ever picture in a theater. Transport yourself there, and it will really, uh, enhance your experience with "The Smartphone Hour."

—

Hey, everybody! I'm Will Roland, from Be More Chill. This next song, "The Pants Song," is, uh, sung in the second act of our show by the wonderful Jason SweetTooth Williams and George Salazar. It begins with Jeremy's dad, played by Jason; they've just had a big fight, and Jeremy's dad has realized that his son, Jeremy, who I play in the show, has really sort of gone off the rails—he's become this—this unrecognizable young man, and he realizes that he has been derelict in his duty as a father. And so, he decides, in one of my favorite lyrics of the 21st century, that "if you love somebody, you put your pants on." Because at this point in the show, he has literally not worn pants. At all. For the entirety of the play. And so this is a big moment where he decides to make a change, and he goes and enlists the help of Jeremy's best friend, Michael, and they decide that they are going to save their buddy. Here it is, from Be More Chill: "The Pants Song."

—

Hey, everybody, this is Joe Iconis, writer of Be More Chill, the Broadway musical. This song is called "Voices in My Head," this is our finale of our show, and it is sung by the leading man to end all leading men, mister Will Roland, one of my absolute favorite actors of all time, and I—I can't believe that I've been lucky enough to work with him on Be More Chill, and that I get to hear him sing the finale of my musical. It is the first song that I wrote after the death of the fella who wrote the original novel, Be More Chill, Ned Vizzini, and, um, y'know, Be More Chill is a show that's pretty wild and wacky and crazy and it's kinda easy to look at it and—and say, "Aw, this is this sorta goofy show about, y'know, technology and computers and high school kids," but it really is about something deeper, y'know—it's about how we struggle with anxiety and depression and how we deal with that, and "Voices in My Head" is the song that kind of most explicitly deals with that, right? It most explicitly talks about how, y'know, we all have issues, right? We all have voices in our head telling us what to do, uh, and the—the trick is to not make them go away, it's just to know which ones to listen to. So here is our celebratory finale, "Voices in My Head" from Be More Chill.

#resorting to a tumblr audio post...hmu if it's not working at all ugh #joe iconis #will roland #be more chill #bmc

IT CHAPTER TWO REVIEW

This is v long and heavy on the spoilers, so read at your own risk

.DISCLAIMERS

1. I saw this in the Spanish dubbed version because of reasons. I will be rewatching the original version but, because I still haven’t, there may be some things that I’ve missed because of the translation. I also didn’t hear the changes in the kids voices which made the “they haven’t aged” thing they tried to pull a tiny bit more believable.

2. I have read the book. However, I read it about 8 years ago and I while I’ve reread some parts, I’ve never read the whole thing since. Because of this, there were a lot of scenes that I felt weird about, as I couldn’t tell if they had just made this really random thing up or I just couldn’t remember it.

3. These are just my opinions, please don’t take them personally. I love all the characters with my whole heart and I do think the actors did them justice.

THAT BEING SAID

Let’s start with what I liked

1. The cast

They all did a fantastic job. Every single one of them. Even the new little kids killed it. (The scene with Pennywise and the girl in the bleachers was one of the best moments/jumpscares in the whole film for me). Obviously Bill Hader was a standout, also I’d only seen him in SNL so I didn’t know what to expect, and he definitely impressed me. But we can’t forget about James Ransone. I couldn’t get enough of him. He captured Jack’s Eddie so so so so well he deserves every bit of praise he gets.

2. The flashbacks

I don’t know who the fuck said there were too many flashbacks, but they’re wrong. I get wanting the focus to be on the adults but the flashbacks gave us a bit more insight on the losers dynamic outside of the whole “this clown is trying to kill us so we need to stick together”, and I liked that they showed more encounters with It, because there is no way he only tried to get to them once all summer. Eddie’s scene with his mom was really good too, I liked it a lot more than his scene in the first movie with the leper. Also they were cute as fuck. Don’t get me started on the hammock scene.

3. Adrian and Dom

I loved this scene. It was a great beginning and it gave me hope for the film. Really well done, very similar to the book and heavy on the reddie references, which you know I love. Also very sad, but I knew what was going to happen so it didn’t affect me as much.

4. Richie’s arcade scene

This scene hits hard. Finn Wolfhard’s acting is 10/10. He just wanted to play with the cute boy Bowers leave him alone.

5. Mike calling Eddie

I’m a bit bitter that they didn’t make him a choffer but I’ll admit that making him a risk analyst makes sense. His conversation with Myra was on point. It said so much in very little time. How unhappy they are, the mommy thing, just great. Also the car accident and him being like “I’m fine”. Wonderful.

6. Benverly/Reddie scenes

The parallels. Amazing. Beverly drowning in blood while Ben drowned in dirt, very effective. Meanwhile Reddie just being husbands. 10/10. The pomeranian bit might have been my favourite in the entire movie, not gonna lie.

OKAY NOW TO THE THINGS I DID NOT LIKE

1. Mike

Yes, Isaiah did really good. But Mike character was just so... bad. Just really annoying. The scene where he drugs Bill just didn’t sit right with me. It just wasn’t Mike and I was really frustrated with his character any time he did or said something, I’m sorry

2. Bill

Again, really great job on McAvoy’s part, but, again, I found the character very annoying and unnecessarily reckless/stupid at times. The scene with the sewer and the kid was just uncomfortable to watch and a bit cringey. Also the whole blaming himself and going after It alone got old very soon.

3. Most of the “scary” scenes

There were a few good jumpscares here and there, but in general the actual scary parts of the movie fell kind of flat. Young Richie’s encounter with It would have been really cool if not for the horrible, horrible cgi on Finn’s face. The scene with the naked grandma looked promising in the trailer but it ended up being pretty meh. Also the photographs and her talking about Pennywise like it was her father and them showing him as a person dressing up as the clown... very misleading and completely unnecessary.

4. The final battle

So many things wrong with this part. Where do I begin. For starters, why would they include the super weird ritual that I can’t remember if it was in the book or not, if it was just gonna be for nothing. Literally the whole getting the objects was such a big part of the movie and all they do is put them in the fire and scream for a while and then it’s like “well guess that didn’t work” and then they are in the same exact place they were as children. The objects did NOTHING WHY WOULD YOU MAKE IT SUCH A BIG DEAL I DONT UNDERSTAND. And do you expect me to believe that while all of them had their weird adventure (Bill with young Bill and the Benverly/Reddie scene) Mike was just there????? Hiding behind the rock???? The whole time????? Eddie’s scene was nice and I wouldn’t have mind the changes if HE HADN’T DIED FOR NOTHING. Like are you telling me that ALL THIS TIME all you had to do was BULLY THE CLOWN TO DEATH. WHAT THE FUCK. That was soooo underwhelming. Very unsatisfactory. Seeing a bunch of adults just shouting CLOWN, YOU’RE JUST A CLOWN to this thing that’s supposedly this great evil was just, so bad I cringed the whole way through. As you can see I’m still bitter about it.

So yeah, that is all I have to say. Had its moments. Enjoyable, scary at times but also kinda disappointing.

Oh and the whole “horror version of brokeback mountain” is a load of bullshit. There is so little Reddie please don’t go in there expecting this big gay romance because you only get glimpses of it and they never delve into Eddie’s side of it. So yeah, glad R+E happened, but it does, unfortunately, seem kind of one-sided the way they went into it.

Rebellious Fabrics Pt. 2

Part 1

Adrien took deep breaths as he squeaked his way through the school toward his first class. He wasn't going to let what Gabriel had said hurt him. He refused to get akumatized over this.

Adrien looked up when he heard Marinette's voice. He grinned as he reached the door. Marinette's first reaction to this ensemble was everything to Adrien right now.

Adrien entered the classroom, eyes immediately going to Marinette, “Good morning, Marinette.”

“Good morning, Adr-” Marinette finally looked up at him.

Marinette's eyes widened in horror and her jaw dropped. Adrien suppressed his snickers as she floundered for words. She stood from her desk, slamming her hands against it.

Marinette leveled Adrien with a determined expression, “What the hell did Gabriel do?”

“Wh-what?” Adrien blinked in surprise at that. Was he that easy to read? He took a step back. His shoe squeaked. Adrien tried to laugh it off, “What do you mean, Mari?”

“I’m sorry.” Marinette breathed and relaxed her shoulders, as well as resting her hands palm up and otherwise opening up her body language. Marinette softened her expression into the concern she meant to convey, “Let me try again. Are you okay, Adrien? Did something happen at home?”

“I… no, I'm fine. Nothing happened.” Adrien looked down. He'd really been hoping for a lighthearted reaction. But clearly, Mari knew him too well.

“Sunshine, you're wearing clown shoes. They squeak like a clown's nose!” Alya said.

“Or like the noses of giant, terrifying animatronic bears possessed by the souls of dead children.” Nino added.

The other three turned to look at him.

“Look, dude, your shirt says ‘Foxy’ on it. Of course my brain is going to jump to fnaf.” Nino said.

“Fair enough.” Adrien nodded.

“Adrien, it's okay if you don't want to tell us.” Marinette said, “We're here for you no matter what, okay?”

“Okay… thank you…” Adrien sighed.

Then Adrien explained what had happened the day before and how tired he was of never being good enough. How he decided to stop trying to be perfect and to figure out how to express himself through his own personal fashion choices. And that he kinda wanted it to piss off Gabriel.

His friends agreed to help. Within days, Adrien was covered by all the fashion magazines and many local fashion blogs. The paparazzi were eating up his new outfits. Looking at pictures of him during that first week was like a weird fever dream. There were so many pictures of him dressed in ridiculous and clashy thrift store outfits while surrounded by his friends, who were wearing the same things they always did.

The day Adrien found his “world's best grandma” blouse was the best day of his life. It was a purple that was brighter than Simon Says’ and had elaborate viney embroidery spilling from the phrase. The words themselves were embroidered on and cut in half by the buttons. It had long sleeves, ruffled cuffs and a ruffled collar. It was several sizes too big for him. Adrien wore it every chance he got.

One of Adrien's other favorite pieces was a frilly green princess gown that had once belonged to a young kid. He'd managed to convince/commission Marinette to turn it into a vest for him. She'd been conflicted about it before she grinned and told him to tell Gabriel it was avante garde.

“Cuz it technically is.” Marinette cackled as she took scissors to the dress.

Adrien also had a marvelous collection of insanely atrocious christmas sweaters. He also had managed a collection of the weirdest tee shirts he'd ever seen.

At some point, Kagami had gotten him a custom made fashionable, Spanish/Japanese reversible face mask that read “world's best grandma”. He was always wearing it.

To say his father tended to be exasperated or furious would be an understatement.

All that isn't to say that all Adrien did to rebel was dress in fashion atrocities. He might have also bought and renovated a homeless shelter. And it could be possible that he had started financing Marinette starting her own fashion line. And modeling for her, of course. It was the least he could do.

***

“What precisely is this charge for several thousand dollars, Adrien?” Gabriel asked.

“Oh, it's the homeless shelter I bought and renovated.” Adrien smiled. He straightened out the hem of his “I minivan housewives” tee.

“Under my name?” Gabriel glowered.

“Well it was either do it myself or ask you, but I know you're too busy for that, so I did it myself.” Adrien shrugged, “Oh, and it's called the Noir Sanctuary.”

“What!?” Gabriel growled, “You named it after that mangy cat!?”

“Well, yeahhhhh.” Adrien said.

Gabriel's eyes narrowed at his son, “Are you… are you seeing him?”

Adrien glanced at the mirror behind his father and smirked, “I might be.”

“He is banned from my home and the homeless shelter!” Gabriel declared.

“Cool, I'll just go over to his apartment.” Adrien shrugged and began to walk away.

“Wait! He's your secret twin!” Gabriel blurted, clearly having no idea how to regain control of his son or the situation.

Adrien almost snorted and composed the properly horrified expression. Then he slowly turned to his father, “Y-you mean… I… I played Super Penguino with my twin!?!”

What are your top 10 Evillious characters?

Finally back from church, trying to get my fingers to type properly(i’m a dumbass who doesn’t wear gloves at 32 degrees fahrenheit), thank you for your question anon :D

as usual I’ll go in reverse order ‘cause I like to do things that way

and like last time, honorable mention goes to... Lich Arklow! Why? Man, I don’t know. He’s just entertaining.

10. Seth Twiright

This is one evil dude! I mean, he is the ‘father’ of all HERs in the Third Period, and the demon of Wrath. If I tried to make a list of how many people’s lives he’s screwed up, either directly or indirectly, I’d be here for a very, very long time! It’s almost impressive... Why do I like him? Let’s see.

He created Irina, which makes me happy. I love the concept of a sentient mask as a renowned physicist. His life’s pretty wacky--he goes from mask to person to key to mask to octopus, not necessarily in that order. Plus, it kinda cracks me up how he basically went from ‘DESTROY THE GODS, WREAK HAVOC, DO CRIMES’ to ‘I don’t... even care...’

While I was thinking about this, I had a weird thought. Isn’t he basically just a writer entertaining himself by wreaking havoc in the world he’s created? No wonder I like him.

9. Banica Conchita

The woman who won Evillious! No, seriously, she basically got everything she wanted out of it. She’s really cool, all right? Her childhood sucked but by the time she was an adult she basically had it all together(aside from the whole demon thing) which I find pretty darn impressive.

Plus, her story is seriously chilling, I mean, she goes and eats everyone who crosses her!

The end of her life is just... Awesome. Instead of eating her baby, she eats herself... and an entire demon for dessert! And then she doesn’t change a bit as Master of the Graveyard, and when it’s all over she just flies off to another universe to find more to eat! She’s an absolute legend.

8. Behemo Barisol

What is there to say about Behemo Barisol? Quite a character, that one. Kinda chaotic. Entertaining as heck. [Wilhelm scream]

7. Gammon Octo

Emo communist bundle of scarves. If he removes them all he will die. Perhaps he is made entirely of scarves? We just have no way of knowing, not without risking his life anyway. He went into the time loop and then just disappeared... maybe he’ll come out in the wash.

6. Gallerian Marlon

My eye’s always drawn to any character involved in the legal system, and Gallerian Marlon did not disappoint.

Well, he did disappoint, because he’s corrupt and has no sense of justice beyond what’s determined by money, but hey.

At the very least he’s a good dad, to the one kid he knows exists, I guess.

Plus, ‘Money is the best lawyer in hell’ is kind of an epic line!

5. Kayo Sudou

Okay, I know the Envy novel plot twist got a lot of people mad, but it’s actually the reason why she’s so high on my list. A cunning murderer who convincingly faked insanity in order to prevent all-out war and destruction? That’s simultaneously terrible and awesome, and also really scary. I mean, killing people with scissors... wow, she’s hardcore.

4. Nemesis Sudou

Nemesis... She’s a really angry girl and she’s got a lot of reasons to be, but she also is very, very, very over the top. You know, as one could call it for someone to decide ‘humanity sucks, so I’m going to blow up the entire world’.

Still, she’s super epic. I like her a lot.

3. Eve Moonlit

Yeah, yeah, that’s a picture of Margarita. I like all her incarnations, okay? Eve, Mikulia, Platonic, Margarita, et cetera. She’s just a giant fusion of coolness. Also, her story is really tragic. She loses everything and spends lifetimes trying to get it back.

Though she does commit a lot of murder along the way. Ahaha. Par for the EC course, am I right?

2. Irina Clockworker

Nya... Nya... How I love her. Small evil girl, blown up by her big brother, gets her soul shoved into a stuffed cat. Just wants kids. And also massive worldwide havoc and destruction.

Smart, sarcastic, and fond of arson as well... she’s awfully evil and she does a whole bunch of stuff that I disapprove of, but I love her anyway.

And finally, in a move that shouldn’t surprise many, the spot of my favorite Evillious character goes to... drumroll...

1. Lemy Abelard

*intense screaming* CLOWN SOOOOOOOOOOON

I LOVE HIM AND WILL ALWAYS LOVE HIM.

He’s so small and adorable in his little costume... He’s a clown that doesn’t freak me out. He has catchy music. He’s a good boy... even though he kills people... he’s still a very good boy. He needs better authority figures that won’t lead him to kill people.

Look at his face paint... *sobs, overcome by love*

He’s doing his best. I adore him. Let him be happy.

Thank you so much for asking, anon! :D

AH THAT CURLY WRITING WAS SO GOOD AND REALISTIC OMG GREAT WORK!!! do you think you could do one of soda with his ADHD back when he was in school some time? (I think you said you can see him having it and so can I) love your writing 💛💛

well, thank you, love! this is what motivates me to keep writing. so keep sending me requests, spread my writing and I'll keep it up!

Sodapop Curtis was in the seventh grade and he had just received his report card. He knew he did poorly; he was always being yelled at by his teachers, getting distracted and losing worksheets. He would always try to entertain his best friend, Steve, but Soda was still learning how to enjoy jokes by himself. Most of his teachers were easily charmed by his smiles and cheeky excuses but there were a few sticklers who had zero tolerance for nonsense.

Soda chose to walk home, taking his time, plotting how to get rid of the letter. He could burn it using Dally’s lighter or bury it in the lot. He could stick it down the drainages system or maybe even switch out his and Steve’s. Steve was smart. He could explain to Steve - Steve always understood - and it’d be okay. Soda’s nerves were still sky high, even as he tried to convince himself everything was under control.

“Hey Soda!” Two-Bit Mathews greeted him. Two-Bit was in eighth grade and the class clown. Soda thought he was so cool and somehow, Two and him were friends.

Soda screamed, throwing the letter out of his hands. “What do you want?” He snapped, showing anger rather than fear so he wouldn’t look weak.

“Ooh, is that a love letter?” Two teased. He peeked at the note just to embarrass Soda.

“What? No!” Soda picked up the letter and clutched it to his chest. “It’s my report card.”

“How’d you do?”

“Bad.” Soda’s eyes were wide, scared if what his parents would say. Darry was an amazing student as a sophomore in high school. He was on the football team and in the choir; he was the biggest ladies man and he had so many friends, yet he brought home A’s and was all the teacher’s favorite. Darry set the bar so high and Soda was just a disappointment. He could barely sit still, he forgot his papers at home or lost them and he never paid attention, resulting in him never understanding the material. He was nothing like Darry: it wouldn’t even surprise him if he was adopted because Ponyboy was just like Darry.

“Earth to Soda; come in, Soda.” Two-Bit waved his hand in front of Soda’s face, bringing him back to reality.

“Yeah. Bad.” He sighed. He shook his head. “Help me destroy it.”

“Are you sure?” Two-Bit looked at him, skeptical.

“It’s easier to lie than to show them this.” Soda thrust the crumbled letter into his friend’s hands. Two peeked at Soda’s grades. He wasn’t wrong; all Soda was passing were workshop and gym.

“Hey! An A in gym. Good for you!” Two cheered, trying to be encouraging.

“Everyone has an A in gym, idiot.”

“But not everyone has an A in workshop. Now that’s impressive.” Two smiled at him, trying to cheer him up.

“Look, man. I appreciate what you’re trying to do but I just want that damn thing outta my sight.” Soda sighed. Two-Bit shrugged and did as his friend asked; he pulled out his lighter and lit the report card on fire. “Oh my God! Two-Bit!”

“You told me to do it!” Two-Bit exclaimed in defense.

Soda sighed. “Thanks for trying to help, I guess.”

“Soda, it’s okay. I promise.” Two cocked an eyebrow but eventually cracked a smile. Soda couldn’t help but grin back. Sodapop went on his day, finally relaxed and kinda happy. He had already forgotten the weight of guilt the bad report card had put on him. He even stopped by his buddies’ houses, both Steve and Johnny Cade.

“Hey Johnnycake! Wanna come over for dinner tonight?”

Johnny’s whole face lit up. “Well, sure!” He agreed. The two raced to the Curtis house. Soda won but not by much; the excited sixth grader was powered by excitement.

“Soda, where on Earth were you? We were worried – oh hello, Johnny.” Mrs. Curtis greeted both the boys with warm hugs. “Would you like to stay for dinner?” Johnny nodded and Mrs. Curtis smiled; though they acted tough and cool, she knew her sons’ friends’ hearts and loved them like her own. Thinking of her sons, she remembered Darry had given her his report card. “Soda, did you get your report card today?”

His eyes got wide and he had to think quick, coming up with a lie as fast as he could. “I lost it.” It just came out and Soda cursed himself. “It’s at school.”

“Oh, well. Just bring it home tomorrow, okay, sweetie?” Soda let out a sigh of relief; he was safe, for tonight. Except for at the dinner table, Mrs. Curtis brought it up again. “Darrel, you should see how well your son did in school this semester.”

Darry beamed as his father gave him a pat on the back. “How’d you do, Soda? Ponyboy? Johnny?”

Johnny smiled, so happy to feel like he belonged. “I did alright. Three As and the rest Bs.” Johnny knew he wasn’t a perfect student but he was okay with that. B was for above average, anyway.

“Soda?” Mr. Curtis turned his attention to his middle son.

Mrs. Curtis saved him. “He left his report card at school, by accident.” Quickly changing the subject, she complimented Darry. “The potatoes were cooked perfectly, Darry.” Darry smiled; like any kid his age, he loved getting complimented by his parents, especially with such strict teachers who only pointed out what he did wrong.

The next couple of days, Soda’s anxiety would rise and fall at an alarming speed. Anytime his parents asked about his grades, he panicked and would have to make up a lie. “I left it at Steve’s house” or “my teacher made a mistake and had to correct it.” Soda just didn’t have the heart to tell his parents he was flunking. He might even have to repeat the grade. One night after dinner, Soda couldn’t run any further.

“We got a call from your teachers, asking you to bring back your signed report card.” Mrs. Curtis’s voice was firm but not loud. The middle child was sitting on the couch opposite his parents in the living room. “Where is your report card? You were given it a week ago.”

Soda’s eyes widened and he gulped. He couldn’t think so the truth just poured out of him. “I burned it.”

“You what?”

“Sodapop,” his father sighed. “Why would you do that?” Both Darrel and his son were dying as they had to sit still and be serious. Mr. Curtis felt guilty and nostalgic; he did the same things as a kid. He chuckled to himself; Sodapop looked just like his mother but he couldn’t be more like his father if he tried.

“I’m flunking.” Soda hung his head and his voice was barely above a whisper. “All’s I’m passin’ is workshop and gym.”

“Honey, that’s not true!”

Soda glared at his mother. “Yes. It. Is.” His words were verbal venom, scarring the air with tension. “I’m not Darry, I’m not Pony and I’m not a good student. I’m stupid, I don’t turn in my papers and my grades suck. I don’t see how I’m related to them because they’re so perfect.”

Mr. and Mrs. Curtis’ hearts broke. What had they said that would make Soda feel so horrible? Did his brothers tell him these things? “Darrel! Ponyboy!” Mrs. Curtis shouted.

Tears spilled over his eyes, rushing down Soda’s cheeks. “No! Please don’t.” His brothers sauntered in but their father dismissed them. Both of his parents went over and cuddled their son.

“Baby, you are the sweetest, kindest person I know. In the real world, history and math and science don’t matter.” Mrs. Curtis tried to sooth her middle son.

“Yes, they do.” Soda choked through the tears.

“No, they do not. I go to the hospital every day and I only use basic math. You’re a pro at that! Sure, I had to learn what medicines do what, but I don’t need it now. I just give the patients what’s on their chart.” Mrs. Curtis looked at her son, holding him close and her love radiated off of her.

“Your mother’s right. I just need to know what parts do what and where they go. I’ve taught you everything I know, so honey, you’re set.” Mr. Curtis chimed in.

“But…”

Mrs. Curtis cut her son off, offering him the best words of advice she had. “Darry may became a lawyer and Pony a doctor. They’re school smart. But you can draw, you can write and you’re the best people person. Darry wasn’t popular until high school, but everyone’s loved you since the day you were born. School isn’t everything, darling. We’re not telling you to stop trying, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself. No matter what, we will always still love you.”

Top 5 Arc V Moments.

OKay so this is very over due as hell I’m sorry like sincerely apologizing here. I don’t really have an excuse since I’ve known my definite favorite moments for a while, I just felt I had to… emotionally prepare myself to write all this out. And well

(it’s fucking June now…) as you can see it takes me a just a bit to become emotionally prepared for anything Arc V, especially so when it comes to deciding on JUST 5 Arc V moments but alright. Here they are:

5. Episodes 69 & 99 (tie): Melt My Heart

Yeah, I know I’m starting this list off with a tie just to emphasize how hard this is for me. Well anyway…

I’m choosing both of these episodes as a tie because my favorite thing about them both is, you guessed it!, fruitshipping.

Fruitshipping is, of course, my favorite pairing from Arc V (honestly, it’s my favorite in all of YGO in general by like… a really, REALLY long shot) and I’ve already talked about why episode 69 is my favorite fruitshipping moment from the entire show (tl;dr: it’s what made me go from casually shipping it to full blown “I WILL DROWN WITH THIS SHIP WITHOUT REGRET”) but the reason why I’m placing it tied to episode 99 in this list is of course because

this. Amazingly touching reunion. And although, yes it was short lived, nothing takes away how satisfying everything about this scene is, imo at least. Maybe you ship this, maybe you don’t. Either way, I’m not sure you can’t deny how heartwarming it is that Yuya isn’t holding back his feelings here. Okay, perhaps he is maybe slightly (goddamnit Yuya cONFESS ALREADY DAMNIT U DENSE BOY). Even the entire present cast finds it hella endearing:

Shingo’s satisfied look of approval pretty much confirms he ships it.Gongenzaka is beyond happy to see his best friends reunited, as they should be.Sora probably going thru the biggest sugar high of his entire goddamn life from how sweet this reunion is.

Look. At. Reira’s. Smile. Damn shoulda just shown baby Reira/Zarc a pic of fruitshipping… but then maybe Arc V would have ended 5 episodes sooner…Tsukikage, the cool stoic ninja, has been shipping this from the shadows but this scene was too perfect he dgaf about hiding it anymore.

Jack & Crow transcending shows just to show their approval of this ship.

Fruitshipping is all according to Reiji’s keikaku, and Shun seems glad he was awake to see this.

Not to mention my favorite part of this moment:

I get this is YGO and who knows if we’ll ever get an on-screen kiss but… the amount of time they stared directly into each other’s eyes without even blinking once, like… I know I wasn’t the only one who thought they were actually gonna kiss there for a moment… it’s symbolic of something, ya feel?

sweartogodithoughttheyreallywereandasiwatchediwasscreaming

This moment was too pure, too good, too heartwarming………

Anyways,,,

4. Episodes 31+32: A True ‘Entame’ Duel

Again, this is a moment I’ve talked about as being one of my favorite Yuya moments recently.

There’s a lot I can add about why I love this duel (for example:

giving Shingo some character development as well as demonstrating that he actually really is a skilled duelist and a true entertainer in his own way, not just a follower or an imitator

Yuya using this duel to challenge himself and push himself to reaching for his father’s level of Entame Dueling which is his dream

the cliffhangers they left us off with at the end of ep 31, the one that happened at the beginning of 32 with Yuya diving into the collapsing castle (which, Idk about anyone else, but that legit got me anxious AF too cuz how unpredictable the duels in this show are sometimes) and of course the other one towards the end of the duel as he made his ‘destiny draw’ while calling for the audience to cheer him on, etc.

but what really makes this duel the textbook example of what makes Entame Duels so fun to watch is the flawless call and response (aka back & forths) between Shingo and Yuya and their absolute dedication to keeping the flow of their entertainment as intense and unpredictable (even for themselves) as possible.

Also, as far as YGO goes, there is always going to be moments where the protagonist has to rely on a ‘destiny draw’, but the way it was implemented in this show (pretty much always like this moment) was a really creative way that fits into the world and story-telling of the show extremely comfortably but also adding to the anticipation since both we AND the actual in-universe audience are expecting something BIG.

Another rewatch bonus here: the stark contrast between Yuya’s Entame Dueling vs Zarc’s vengeful, overpowering dueling- this duel is the prime example of everything that Zarc strived to achieve as an entertainer but was unfortunately ultimately swayed away from despite his true intentions.

Last note for this moment: this duel was will always hold a special place in my heart for happening at a time when I really needed it. It was a nice reminder to not be afraid to Take A Step Forward With Courage.

(Side note: this episode was also immediately followed by, without a doubt, the best written duel in Arc V: Shun vs. Sora, so that just added to this moment in retrospect due to the contrast between dueling for smiles & entertainment vs dueling for war & vengeance, which was brilliant considering these 2 duels perfectly showcase the 2 sides of of the single coin that is Arc V and its overall themes, so you could say that, yeah, MCS arc was fucking good.)

3. Episode 1 + 2: A Solid Intro that AWED

Alright, so I’m very aware that not everyone shares my opinion on this, but again this is a list based on my experience and perspective of Arc V so lol anyway,

Episode. 1.

I’ve told this story plenty of times before, I think, but I’ve left some details out. After watching + finishing Zxl (as it was airing, mind you) I was left feeling kinda… mostly… “meh” about YGO as a whole. The last few episodes of it, though, we got this a few times:

And I was kinda… also “meh” about it. *cries writing that*pastsaiyoufool Tbqh with you, my only reaction to him at first was “he’s riding a hippo while playing card games… does he even know what it means to be a YGO protag? Where is YGO going…” but it was also “eh, it’s YGO. Nothing’s changed probably.” Then, a certain someone was confirmed as “main rival” for Arc V and I was motivated to watch. “It’ll probably be just okay but I’m watching for Hosoyan,” I told myself, fucking clueless as fucking hell. “Plus this is the first time I get to watch a YGO RIGHT as it airs RIGHT from the start.”

So episode 1 finally came around and this happened

within the first… not even 2 mins in. And part of me was “ok” and the other part of me was nothatwasntcutethatwasnOTCUTEATALL*denial* (I am a known tsundere when it comes to the things I end up loving the most [see: Chrom, Shun, Zarc, etc.]). Then the next thing that caught my attention was:

. By now, I was internally being even more aggressively tsundere because Fuck that was cute… but he’s ridiculous! Dressing up like a clown?! NNNNO. though on the outside I just kept watching with a straight face like okay okay it’s the first episode, he’s allowed. I’m very dense too just like him.

My first impression of the duel was actually that it was rather okay & somewhat interesting for the most part and that the action cards seemed fun but oh boy a new gimmick but I continued watching, cuz again, I wanted to give it a chance.

My expectations, going into the show, were “this is just gonna be another silly, happy-go-lucky kinda theme, eh I already got thru Zxl so why not?” + no real expectations at all.

And then,

this happened:

My first reaction: oH MY GOD LOOK AT THOSE EYESSS!!! (little did I know this was the beginning of my being zarctrash… yuuup… since episode. fcking. 1.)

I don’t know exactly why, at the time, and I don’t know about the rest of you but this was basically me right after:

Then the next episode continues the duel, Yuya wins, and again, I’m like

And to top that off, they give us this too:

First of all, that ending screencap of Yuya looking at the screen confidently right after he Pendulum summons for the first time and leaves everyone (including me) in shock… I’m sorry but, to me, THAT’S how you end a first episode. The animation. The soundtrack. The pacing and writing. Yuya’s sudden and mysterious (at the time) complete change of demeanor, along with the mystery of the Pendulum itself, is what left me in absolute awe, especially so seeing that even Yuya himself was not expecting it. It was all perfect. Then going on to the next episode and learning that Yuya suddenly had no idea what had just happened or where he even was… that got me hooked instantly.

But the ending to that first episode… haha… I started watching this show for Reiji Akaba and suddenly forgot he existed right after this moment happened. When he finally made his dramatic, opening double-doors + scarf flowing in the wind (in his office somehow?) debut, I was like “Oh sHIT there he is! Right… I was gonna watch this show for him… right…” Barely an episode in and I had completely forgotten why I was even watching anymore. I didn’t care. I just wanted to watch more. (And thankfully Reiji Akaba ended up also exceeding my expectations of his character like by a lot.)

I’ve seen this episode way too many times to count. I enjoy it thoroughly each and every time. But I honestly just really wish I could relive seeing it for the very first time. It was… such an incredible experience. To me, this is the best first episode of any YGO. I went in expecting nothing or even less than that and instead, fortunately, got everything I didn’t even know I ever wanted.

2. Episode 135: The Perfect Episode

I. Am an angst. Hoe.

Part of the reason why I enjoyed this show so much was because it gave me so much well-written angst that hit all the tropes I enjoy so much and then some.

This episode was and then some.

First of all, let me just address the fact that the duel between Yuri and Yuya was hyped and anticipated for 2 fucking years ever since Yuri was first revealed. Don’t lie, our first thought when we saw Yuri was “So WHEN are they gonna duel??!?”

For 2. Entire. Years. This duel was hyped up, and I’ll even dare to say it was more anticipated than even the Yuri vs Yugo duel, honestly. Even up to the last minute. I can’t tell you the amount of polls and discussions I saw debating who would win the duel because not only was the duel hyped, after seeing the first half, (in keeping with the surprise nature of the show) the result was still pretty damn unpredictable (a lot of those polls I mentioned were split almost evenly half the time).

Then it finally happened.

And it delivered. My god did it deliver.

But alright, I know I titled this “The Perfect Episode” but yeah there was some flaws in the duel writing (Yuya, my boy, you forgot your monsters have Pendulum effects?, Yuri I get you were losing your shit too and just wanted to hitotsu ni but you also forgot to use your dragons’ effects or just didn’t bother, etc.) buuuut I’m going to call this off as somewhat realistic in the fact that when you’re feeling you’re going insane and panicking you just might not be able to think entirely straight and might miss a few card effects or so.

But besides that.

The animation for this episode, directed by Ebina, and the sound direction as well was spot fucking on. And the script throughout was…

Oh my god. The script throughout this episode…

Let’s just say, during the span of less than 24 minutes I

cried

and cried

and died cried.

A lot.

just getting those screenshots hurt… beyond words…

Major shout out to Kensho Ono for this scene in particular because. wow.

(Side note 1: just in general, I thank the gods every day for casting Ono Ken as Yuya because I cannot think of anyone better to voice him ever. He left his own personal mark on Yuya’s character [Yuya’s “Ladies & Gentlemen!” was his own added touch and was not originally in the script, gods bless 🙌] + on the YGO series as a whole.

Side note 2: This is more of a personal one with regards to this scene in particular…I say often that I relate to Yuya a lot and let me just say that watching this scene was incredibly hard to watch through tears especially the first time around because, as someone who went through a terrible depressive episode that lasted months in 2014-2015, it just… reminded me… of that exact feeling… and I felt so. goddamn. horrible for Yuya… he never deserved that. Ever. This episode broke me so bad for a good while…)

Of course, I think the thing we all anticipated the most was… Zarc. We knew for certain that he would revive by the end of the duel. “How?” was the main question. Most speculation lead to the theory that Yuri would forcefully merge with Yuya despite losing, but that didn’t happen. Instead,

Zarc did it himself. Of course.

I think by the very end of the duel it was obvious but… that still didn’t stop me from spouting “no no they aren’t doing this tHEY AREN’T REALLY DOING THIS THEY CAN’T FUCKING DO THISSSS NOOOO!!!!” as he walked towards Yuri. And I knew exactly what was about to happen. And it still broke me anyway. And when Yuya’s Pendulum hit the ground

so did I.

*sniff* Fun times.

[Here is where I was gonna put some honorable mentions but the list was pretty damn long so I’m omitting it because honestly I’ll just end up listing like every single episode (besides episode 19 ofc well now y’all know my least favorite Arc V episode… wow… shocker, right?)]

1. Episode 37: Point of No Return

Welp. This is it. My favorite. Favorite. Arc V episode and moment.

The one episode I’ve seen like……. idefk how many times. I pretty much know the script by heart now. Yeah. In Japanese.

What is it about this episode? Maybe it’s the-

No! Stop we’re not there yet!

I think it’s the fact that this episode

is, imo, when shit TRULY. HITS. THE FAN.

As I titled this entry, this is literally. The Point. of No. Return.

Nothing is the same anymore after this episode. The plot is completely, entirely on autopilot from this point on.

“Destiny Starts to Move.”

This fucks with me, man. How much so? Here look:

Yeah I know this was just 5 months ago, but my god. You never know what fate has in store for you. Look at this other thing that I just found again also:

haha “lol”.

I can go on forever about the massive foreshadowing this episode is, or about how tragic it is, or both. OR. I can just… appreciate what they’ve done here.

I love Arc V because, as I said before, this show hits at like literally ALL of my favorite tropes, combines them with YGO and Arc V’s relatable AF characters, and then deconstructs those tropes immensely.

So for example, this episode alone:

A PLOT MAJOR duel NOT involving the main character/protagonist, yet still affects his life forever anyway.

“Kills” (ymmv) off a plot-important character within less than the first half of the show.

Said character STAYS that way (almost unheard of in YGO).

Said character’s dying words aka his last fucking will remains unresolved for pretty much the entire show until the very last episode. (FORESHADOWING WHAO)

You can’t. Escape. Fate. (The end result would be the same regardless of what happened this episode.) You can’t even change fate, in this situation. Not even slightly.

No. You won’t even fix your fate either. Hell, this is a trope that Yugioh usually actively avoids.

Yes, I know this episode is cruel in so many ways, and even more so in hindsight, but as I said before, I love angst. And I love deconstruction of tropes. And I love foreshadowing.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t just love this episode in hindsight. There are so many things going on

“Destiny Starts to Move” - yeah, after all of Ray’s bracelet’s struggles of keeping them away from each other, Zarc finally made his first definitive move sending Yugo here and now three of his four pieces are gathered in one spot, two of them misguidedly pissed at each other for extra hitotsu ni- dueling motivation, with not a single bracelet in sight. There’s no turning back now. Just another win-win Sunday night for Zarc.

And, oh yeah, this was Yugo’s debut. Just to emphasize the fact that their coexistence is unnatural.

Lmao no matter how you see it, their story is so damn sad fite me

Out of hindsight, though, I’ll admit that, besides Yuya, I still wasn’t entirely attached to the characters (or at least not to the extent I am today, even regarding Yuya), but this episode was, as I titled this, the point of no return for me as well. If I ever thought about quitting the show and just coming back to binge it later (which… never actually crossed my mind, I don’t think lol), this was the episode where I thought “shit… I’m definitely here forever now.” I mention the whole quitting and then binging thing cuz that’s what I pretty much eventually did with all YGOs before it, even DM, but not with this show.

Of course this episode is also where we get a hint of what’s been going on with the introduction of Yuri and Leo Akaba asking him to bring Yuzu to him, but doesn’t give enough away that it’s obvious at all. Pretty much all the mysteries gathered in this episode here quite nicely but the shock ending- Yuto dying- gave us all something even greater to ponder about… we knew when it happened that this was only the beginning…

“When the paper’s crumpled up, it can’t be perfect again…”

Honestly, I can continue talking about a bunch of other things regarding this episode for forever, but… talk about… otanoshimi wa kore kara da… so many things that came after this in the story were built upon this moment, it’s definitely one of the most important moments in this show.

And it’s my favorite moment in Arc V.

Note

Hi! Thank you for your great writtings. May I make a request for headcannons about the first official date of RFA, V, Saeran and MC? You don't have to write this if you think that it's too boring. Thank you!

It’s not boring at all! ^^

Just a little disclaimer about Saeran one: originally I wrote them going to a soccer/football stadium because it’s a very popular sport on my country, but I figured it may not be that popular in Korea,so I changed to baseball, and since I understand nothing about baseball,there may be lacking some specific terms… Anyway, I hope you like it!

RFA + Saeran and V on a first date with MC

Zen

You were practically living together, how could this feel like a first date? Well, he was an actor, he would act as it was something new…

And he wants to impress you, show you how cool and sensitive he can be

So he took you to ice skate, knowing you didn’t know how to ice skate. “Maybe you’re taking this ‘pretend it’s a first date’ too serious, Zen…” ‘Relax, babe, it’ll be fun!”

But it was kinda pathetic, he was so elegant on his moves, and you were there sliding like one of those animals that get stuck on ice and can barely stand

But to his eyes, you looked so cute trying that hard, oh… look at you going fast… wait, too fast! MC, stop!

You two ended up on the hospital and you got a cast on your leg, the good news is that it came with an exclusive autograph from a famous actor that happens to be your boyfriend.

He was feeling so guilty, what was he thinking? Worst idea for a first date! He made sure to apologize and pamper you all the time, it was impossible to keep pretending this was a first date. You reassured him you were fine and kissed him to prove it. None of you had nothing to complain about that.

You two went back to your place and you teased: “Guess we’re back to where we started, huh? Should I send you away at night because I’m worried about unleashing the beast? “Oh, come on, babe! I was just being a gentleman!”

He pouted, but inside he was relieved you weren’t mad and was still managing to keep it bright and fun.

And you didn’t want to end it. So to make it up to you, he made you hot cocoa and you cuddled on the couch binge watching “Yuri on Ice”.

Yes, he was messing with you! And you would get your revenge, let’s say you weren’t totally kidding about releasing your own beast…

Yoosung

He’s so nervous, oh god, this poor guy couldn’t even sleep the night before

What if he misunderstood and it wasn’t a real date, it was just two friends hanging out? And he would go for a kiss and you would awkwardly hug him and pat his back? Ohhh god, it would be so embarrassing! He would never be able to face you again!

He was panicking! “I can’t go! I’ll look like a fool! She’s gonna laugh at me, oh, but her laugh is so adorable… but I can’t go!” he struggled like that all night.

So when it was time for the date, he had dark circles under his eyes and he was so tired…

“Yoosung, are you okay?” you asked, worried. “Sure, MC! I’m great, even greater now that you’re here!” you blushed, and he was shrieking inside “She’s so cuuuute! And I’m pretty cool!”

You went to the movies, and then walked on the park a little, you knew he was tired, so you sat on the bench and he, of course, followed you.

You kept talking about the movie, and he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier till… he leaned his head on your shoulder and slept. You were shocked, this was super bold of him and… oh, nevermind, he’s just sleeping, but it’s so adorable tho

He woke up a few minutes later. “Rise and shine!” you smilled playfully, which made him get extremely flustered.

He walked you home and kept apologizing the entire time. “I’m so sorry, MC! I didn’t sleep well last night and I was so tired, but it’s nothing about you, ok? You’re amazing, and interesting and so… warm… Wait! Nevermind! Forget I even said that! I’ll… just…” you leaned to him and gave him a peck on his lips, he stood still and gave you the biggest smile you’ve ever seen right after, his cheeks were so pink.

“It’s fine, Yoosung. You’re pretty warm yourself too. So, hum… are you too tired to… I don’t know, some Netflix and chill?” “Oh! Of course not! I managed to stay awake in the movie because it was so good, I can do it again now!” Oh my god, so adorable! He thinks Netflix and chill really means Netflix and chill!

Jaehee

She wants something classy and romantic for your first date, so reservations at a fancy restaurant it is!

It was pretty crowded, which already made her feel a little anxious. But you took the receptionist’s suggestion of waiting in the bar, some drinks would loosen up both of you.

But “some drinks” quickly became “a lot of drinks”, and you never got to the restaurant, you two were blushing and giggling at the silliest things. “MC, I love how bold and adventurousoeis (she couldn’t say such a long word) you are, seriously… I feel like I could dare you to do anything and you’d do it!” “Oh yeah? Try me!” “Hmmm… call Jumin for a prank!”

And you kept daring each other to make prank calls to all RFA members, you were both laughing so hard.

She was a lightweight, you weren’t. So when she started leaning her back on the bar’s counter, you gathered what was left of your sobering and called a cab.

“Hey, MC?” “Yes, Baehee?” you two were still giggling inside the cab “Can you… can I… can you dare me to kiss you?” “Oh… I think you won’t like it if you remember this tomorrow morning…” “Let me be the judge of that.” And she kissed you, you were so thrilled and excited, it would be a shame if neither of you could remember this night.

In the morning, you got your voice mails, and your hangover immediately faded away when you heard her sober voice. “Hey, MC. How about I dare you to go on a second date with me? Let’s have dinner for real this time! Oh, and you were wrong, I remember and I really liked it…”

Jumin

You knew it would probably be something extravagant and over the top, but for a first date you wanted something… smaller.

And you told him that you were down for whatever he wanted to do, if only he could… you know, keep it simple.

So he took you to a very fancy and discreet restaurant, which sounded perfect and very like him.

But apparently he and his father shared the same taste, as Mr. Chairman walked in the same restaurant, and he had company! A beautiful lady who was probably your age, maybe a little older.

And this wouldn’t be a problem, but they suggested to join you and him, oh lord… kill me already but both you and Jumin were too polite to refuse.

So this became the most awkward double date ever, and it got worse when you excused yourself to go to the restroom because you needed some air, and the lady made you company “But don’t get the wrong idea, gentlemen, we’re just going to gossip and… hihihi did I say it out loud?” take it easy, gurl…

You could see she wasn’t a bad person, she was just… a little too much? And maybe she was a little high on something, but you weren’t sure. “Oh, aren’t we the luckiest gals in this restaurant? I can’t wait to be your mother-in-law, you’re so pretty and smell so good…” what… what’s going on? “Are you down for some swing? Let’s ditch the guys and have some fun ourselves…” and let father and son… wait! Why were you even trying to understand this? “Huh, I’m flattered (no, you’re not) but no, thanks.” “Your loss, babe” she took a pill and a sip of something of a canteen. Oh, so she wasn’t high before?

And if you think this was better for Jumin, since they are father and son… well, let’s say Mr. Chairman was lecturing him about the importance of protection. “Do you know if she’s taking her contraceptives appropriately?”

He excused himself and went to find you, you bumped to him halfway through the table. “Do you mind if we leave?” you asked at the same time and smiled, it was so good you were on the same page.

“How did it go with your father?” “Maybe it’s better if I don’t talk about this… what about you?” “Well… if I hadn’t known before, now I know why you should never mixture roofies with booze… and I’ll just keep at that…” Silence in the car, neither of you wanted to call it a night, you didn’t enjoy each other not even a little… “Hey, are you interested in a truly commoner’s date?”you asked “What do you have in mind?”

I mean… commoners go to decent places, but you just wanted some Burger King right now! And Jumin didn’t know how to order, it was so cute!

“I’m sorry for tonight, MC, I… wanted to be special… I’m not one to create expectations, but I was really longing for you to feel like a princess tonight” You giggled and put one of those Burger King paper crowns in your head. “I feel like a princess wherever you go with me…”

Oh god… how could you be so adorable? He couldn’t resist kissing you… and you didn’t even mind you probably tasted like processed meat, this was so perfect in a very weird way.

Saeyoung

You’ve been through so much together, would it really feel like a first date? Well, he was nervous as if it really was…

He was laughing of his own weird jokes, so you knew you had to be the calm one to keep it balanced.

But as soon as he told you what he planned for the day, you lost it! You were going to the circus!

And you’re terrified of clowns, but you managed to hide this so well that it probably didn’t even appear on his background check… fuck!

Now you were both a nervous mess, but for different reasons. You wanted to hold his hand to calm yourself down, he didn’t want to because it was all sweaty… this was going to be a long day…

At first it was fine, the magician number was pretty cool and all, and the acrobats were very impressive, you were already forgetting about the object of your worst nightmares…

And, without any warning, the clown’s number began. They should warn that they would start mingling between the audience, otherwise, you wouldn’t have freaking PUNCHED ONE OF THEM.

“Holy shit, MC!” Saeyoung was shocked and… impressed? You had a good left! He didn’t know if he should laugh, help the clown or you… who was freaking out! The show was over after, well, this little show.

“I’m so so so sorry, sir! You surprised me… with your pale make up and this weird nose, and… those freaking shoes, oh my God! Saeyoung, save me, please!” you buried your face on his chest, and he hugged you. This would be hilarious if it were someone else (cof cof Yoosung cof cof) , but since it was you, he kept serious and did his best to calm you. “There, there! Let’s get you somewhere nice… I’m really sorry,MC…” the clown didn’t say anything, he just handed a flower to you… awww… maybe they aren’t that bad.

“Honhonhon, MC, I think he liked you punched him, we have a kinky clown here…” Saeyoung whispered to you. Dude, you’re not helping…

After you left, you went to his place and you were cuddling lazily on the couch. “I’m sorry I didn’t know that you were so afraid…if I knew, I would never take you there…”he apologized again “It’s fine… I think it’s kinda nice that you don’t know everything about me after all, it will be so good trying to find out… Oh, and I’m happy the clown didn’t want to press charges for assault!”

“Yeah, I don’t know if I would be able to hold myself seeing you handcuffed…” “Saeyoung!” you blushed “What can I do, MC? I’m kinda of a kinky clown myself…”

Saeran

You’ve been trying to take him on a date for months, it was impossible!

Not that he didn’t want to, it was just… he was a freak and didn’t want to scare you. “You don’t get it! I’m just… I’ll get angry out of nowhere and people will think ‘what is that cute chick doing with that creepy dude?’ I don’t want to embarrass you and… I don’t want to lose you…” how can you run away from this adorable weirdo?

But you had an idea! “Hey, meet me tomorrow! I know a place we can go where nobody will judge you for getting angry… don’t worry, it isn’t a date! We’re just hanging out, okay?” keep lying to yourself until you believe that

He was so curious, and he looked puzzled when you took him to… a baseball stadium? What the fuck? Did you even like sports?

“MC, what the hell…?” “Don’t worry! Trust me!” and you went to your seats, he didn’t understand any of this. “Fuck… this is boring…”

“I know, right? How come they can’t score?” an old man talked to him. “I heard the hitter right there is negotiating to go play in America, he doesn’t give a shit about this championship anymore…” another guy joined the conversation, Saeran was intrigued: “Seriously? What a fucker!” “Yeah, you tell him, son! Hey, number six! You suck!” the man yelled.

“Wait, can he… do that?” Saeran asked you “I mean… cussing the guy like this?” “Well, there isn’t a rule that says you can’t…” “Really? So… hey, number six! Go fuck yourself! Have fun eating hamburgers and just get the fuck out of there, you asshole!” the guys who were talking to him before cheered him, and he was smiling, he felt like he belonged for the first time in a loooong time.

And he looked at you. You were really something, only you could come up with something like this for him, maybe you were the freak here…

“MC, what’s a kiss cam?” You were distracted with your phone, the smell of beer and testosterone was grossing you out, you only did this for him anyways… “What? Oh… it’s just a thing they do on breaks, the cameras in the stadium look for couples and put them on screen for them to kiss…” “Oh, so should we kiss?”

He pointed to the screen, and there were you two with that tacky heart frame all over you… “Oh… we don’t have to if you don’t want… it’s not a dat…” he pulled you for a kiss, you were shocked! But it felt so good…especially when his tongue slipped playfully inside your mouth… not so grossed out anymore, are you?

This guy…

Because he is such a gentleman, of course he let you take the lead on what you should do for your first date… oh crap!

Why is he so perfect? You had no idea what kind of date would make justice to such an adorable and sweet man.

You thought of so many things and all of them felt too pretentious, so… why not keep it simple and ask him to join you for dinner at your place? He’d bring the wine and you’d cook!

Since he can’t see, you wondered if his other senses were more intense now… maybe the taste of food could be such an amazing experience for him! So you decided to try exotic spices, you wanted to be magical for him!

And… let’s say it looked like some kind of magic trick , this handsome man was turned into a swelling red mess, his soothing voice was raspy due to his throat closing. Congratulations, MC! You gave him an allergic reaction on your first date.

You rushed to the hospital and you were so embarrassed, even when he looked fine and normal again, you kept quiet and distant, and he noticed. “What’s wrong, beautiful?”

“I’m so sorry, you have no idea how much! I completely understand if you decide to never see me again! I mean… if you never… want to hear from me again, arrrrgh! Why do I keep messing up so much with you?”

He just cupped your face with his hand and planted the most loving and sweet kiss, did you die and this was heaven? You could hear the angels singing…

“Next date, my treat, okay? But for now… let’s go back to your place, I think I want to keep tasting your flavor all night long…” when did he become so bold? Oh… who cares? Just enjoy it, you’re in for a night, girl…

MARVEL FALLS

My idea of a crossover between Marvel and Gravitiy Falls….

The twins obviously had to be Wanda and Pietro Maximoff- since their not-so-interested father Eric would send them away to some sketchy uncle he vaguely knows… and well, Xavier said Fury is a reliable guy that ows him a favor, so off you go, kids!

Wanda would be in Dippers place, with her affinity to magic and all, while impatient Pietro with his many colorfoul varying outfits would get in Mables place… and I think the personalties (calm and serious vs extrovert and colorful) suit as well!

Fury as Gruncle Stan?

Yes! The many identity changes suit him, like the eyepatch… he would not have SHIELD behind him- ANYMORE - and act dead- but investigate the weird happenings in the area… and search for the guy that replaced the actual Stanford… they would not be twins anymore but have worked together on some hard mysterious and outer wordly cases…

Thor as Soos because I just could see that… kinda xD

And Vision as handy replacement for Wendy… related to Wandas and Visions relationship, but also him being the quiet cool guy, who is capable of way more then it looks like!

Of course with Vision as Wendy, Ultron became Robby, acting cool having a hard crush on that smug cyborg….

Wendys friends had to switch to, and for the texting girl, always researching secretly working with SHIELD, and keeping tab on Fury, is Natasha…. yes, she would never date Ultron and all… but it’s a different universe, so the storylines would change anyways xD

The slightly desperate but extroverted and attentionseeking buddy had to be Wade Wilson- lovely but derpy and always fun to hang around! Also, with Wade, the desperate part would disappear, Wade is never desperate, he knows exactly when he’s making a fool of himself, and has no regrets whatsoever about being called a clown!

Peter and Sam got in there… well… I don’t recall exactly why, expect for being in need of some not loud or noisy characters here that still stood in contact with Vision… and…. since I already planned most of the Avengers for other rolls… it came down to them ;p

Of course Pietro makes some friends with his colorful and outgoing personality… Wanda is not sure about those two, but… they seem… kind of… okay…. … … inspired by X-Men Evolution of course xD

No question who’s Blendin Blenjamin Blandin, the time-traveller: Cable!And for Waddles… I was a lil troubled … but then I choose a Bamf- because they are adorable!!! ♥

Pacifica had to turn into Emma. For obvious reasons of similartiy. … Rogue and Raven… well… … … it just kinda happened…

Old Man McGucket, having a Family and bein part of a big Project, loosing his Memory... ... of course he became Old man McHowlett... and his son Daken really does not need any further contact, even if McHowlett sometimes aggressevly tries....

Who else but Victor von Doom in Gideons place?

An evil magician, who crosses Wandas path, and poses in various ways with different schemes, always acting surpreme…. yes, that was what went through my head…. There is not much I have to add here except that he would probably not have proper parents, but some Doombots in their places...

…. and yes, he’d fall for Pietro and romance him… … not Wanda… nope… ;D

Ultrons Parents- Janet van Dyne and Hank Pym, happily burring failed experiments and robots in their graveyard… als also Sentinels…

First it seemed more fitting to go for Dormamu… but then again- Mephisto and his deals, demons and monsters from another dimension, posessing people, making tempting offers…. … perfect!

And travelling to paralelle universes or communication via dreams- Strange!!! Absolute Dr.Strange!!!

The obvious similarities between Quentin Trembley, the 8 1/2 president and Steve Rogers, aka the very First Avenger kind of made it impossible to not do it xD

BNHA self insert AU [Book 4]

Foo, here’s books 1, 2 and 3...CATCH UP!

Chapter 3: Turns Out Your Just Fam

It’s day 3 of house arrest and the twins are tortured by the fact that it’s a perfect summer day outside AND they can’t go out to enjoy it! In defeat, they try to entertain themselves by flipping through the saved television shows in the digital library.

“Found anything?” groaned Tensei, face down on the floor “please tell me you found something!”

“Shut up! My eyes burn from staring at the television!” yelled Hanaka, furiously flipping through with the remote “Here lets watch this shit!”

Tensei sat up and looked at the selection “Hanaka what the fuck is this?”

The image of clowns and jesters doing tricks in a different language came up.

Hanaka rubbed her eyes “I don’t care, it was under the foreign tab in the library.”

The twins watched forcefully, then intently as the tricks caught their interest. Ignoring that the entire thing was in some Scandinavian language.

“Psh I can do that!” Tensei scoffed at the clown on the screen “I can do a front flip onto a unicycle.”

Hanaka stared daggers into her twin “Cap! I’ve never seen you do anything like that in your life!”

“I can do things if I really wanted too!” huffed Tensei, standing up “Catch me outside do it so fluidly that you’ll shit.”

“Okay bet with what unicycle tho?” one-up’d Hanaka.

“Pretty sure our old tricycles are in the garage somewhere” Tensei opens the sliding door “Come on, you know you wanna.”

His twin rolled her eyes and stood up “Fine, not like I have anything better to do.”

Tensei sets up the tricycle and his stance “Okay! Here I go!”

And to nobody’s surprise, he fails miserably. He fell short of the tricycle and landed on his back.

“Stupid, you didn’t propel yourself hard enough” Hanaka walked over to her twin to help him up “You’re thinking too much about the landing, a front flip is all about the propel and balance.”

“You try it then.”

“I will and watch closely” Hanaka commanded as she did the flip “See? You point your foot the direction you wanna go and land.”

“Hmmm okay, let me try again.”

Their parents came home to the sight of the twins practicing flips in the backyard.

“Look at them! They’re getting along” their mother pointed out “It’s that change of heart phase.”

“Didn’t think I’d see the day” their father smiled “Next thing we know they’ll be out of the house. What are we to do with an empty nest?”

“I don’t know, we’ll figure it out when that day comes” she leaned on her husband’s shoulder “But is seems like everyone’s coming back to these parts of Japan to raise their kids. Seems like there’s a hero bug going around among our friends.”

“Yes! I didn’t expect to see both Aoyama and Sero on our errands run” laughed the husband “Their youngest looks just like them! Maybe all of our kids will be in the same class too.”

“Oof I can feel the screaming already” she kissed his cheek “Better hope they don’t fall in love and keep it to themselves.”

“Yea.....HEY!” called our her husband, realizing the shade she threw.

Slowly the twins collaborated on their hero training and studies. But yet Tensei was still piecing himself, who is he now that his basically killed his goody-goody reputation? He knows rumors will spread the moment he steps foot onto campus, how is he going to own up to it? Yes its all true but he doesn’t look the part! He so happened to be downstairs when his twin was watching Steven Universe: The Movie and the part where the band opens with Disobedient plays. The words resonated with him and inspired him to do the thing! And by thing, Tensei means shaving the sides of his head to make a mohawk. One shoddy self-taught hair cut with the electric razor, Tensei looks in the mirror...and there he is! So much closer to what he really is inside. He teleports into his room and texted his twin to come in his room for some sibling time.

“What’s up with the towel on your head?” Hanaka asked as she sat in the lounge chair in the boy’s room.

“You’ll see!” Tensei said, trying to contain his excitement. He then started a group video-call with his two older siblings.

“Hello? What’s up Tensei?” spoke up Iwa.

“Bonjour? Little brothers? Can you hear me?” asked Lili “The internet in my place is kinda sucking right now.”

“Hi, I can hear you” Tensei said before propping up his phone “Okay you’re probably wondering why I gathered you all here.”

“Did you get kicked out of the school?” asked Lili

“You landed that kid in the hospital?” asked Iwa right after.

“Clearly he’s going to pursue music” popped in Beizu in Iwa’s video.

“You got chorro” blurted Hanaka.

“What- NO!” Tensei dismissed their assumptions “I wanted to show you guys my true self. I finally feel content with what I see in the mirror and that it’s really me! Not dad or any other Iida!” He gripped the front of the towel “BEHOLD!”

When he unveiled his new hair cut, there wasn’t a collective dramatic gasp nor screaming. It was just silent shock.

Iwa broke the silence “Okay, I love you lil bro, but I have to shit on this cut.”

“Yeah, it’s just so...uneven and the strip isn’t aligned straight!” Lili cringed “Who did this cut?”

Hanaka gasped “You did this didn’t you?!” she pointed at his hair “it literally looks like a blind person did it, and you’re blind!”

“I’m not blind! I have astigmatism!” Tensei said with an arm chop “and yes I did give myself this cut and I’m quite happy with it.”

“Did mom and dad not want to take you to the salon?” asked Iwa

Tensei stopped running his hand through his strip of hair “I didn’t ask. Just grabbed the clippers and looked at a reference picture.”

Lili face-palmed “Ay hermanito mio! Mom and dad aren’t dictators, they’d take you to the salon if you asked.”

“Yea, so this little stunt of yours is gonna look like a cry for help if you don’t word it right” Iwa sighed “Seriously Tensei! You were supposed to be the smart one.”

After the video-call ended, Tensei had to come clean to his parents. Both of them so happened to be home now and are having down time in the living room. The twins walked up to the stairs to start the descent.

“I’ll be right here Tensei” assured Hanaka, putting the towel over her twin “If you feel like yourself, then I support you 100 percent of the way. Heck any negativity toward you!”

Tensei took a deep breathe “Thank you Hanaka” He took the first step down “Oh jeez I feel so heavy!”

He finally makes his way downstairs and toward the living room.

“Mijo? Are you okay?” asked his mother “You seem very stiff.”

“I’m fine mom, I just ummm” Tensei looked up to the top of the stairs to his twin for assurance “I just, have to tell you something.”

“Oh? What is it Tensei?” curiously asked his father “You can tell us anything.”

Tensei finally mustards the courage to tell them his feelings and thoughts of his self image. He reveals his shoddy hair cut.

“...and this is what I feel, the closest to my real self” Tensei felt his knees wobble “It needs a bit of tiding up and I wanted to ask if I could get it fixed at the salon.”

“Oh my sweet boy!” his mother gushed, in near tears “Of course I’d be happy to take you to get it touched up. Any thing to help you realize your true self.”

“Cool because I have another thing to come forward with” Tensei lifts his shirt “I also got this piercing and it makes me feel normal somehow? I can’t explain it but it was my first step into things.”

His father didn’t look too pleased “TENSEI ORO IIDA! This is so uncouth of you! You’re far too young for a piercing of ANY type!” he arm chopped and faced his wife “Tell him Ita!”

“Oh shit that’s clean, a ver” the mother requested for Tensei to come closer “I can’t be mad! This is a professionally done piercing and has been well maintained. It’s maybe two weeks fresh from the looks of the pinkness and I love the choice of piercing!”

“You’re not mad?”

“Honey, I got my first tattoo at 15 years old” chuckled his mother “This isn’t as shocking, in fact, I was kind of expecting it for one of you guys.”

“You can’t be serious!” her husband intervened “Our son has a string of rebellious events and you’re okay with it?!”

She crossed her arms “You always the party pooper Tenya, let the boy express himself! I’m giving him a supportive environment to do so.”

“What?! I am not a party pooper!”

“Need I remind you what you did to me 1st year?”

The parents exchanged looks that confused Tensei.

“Fine, you can openly express yourself Tensei” sighed his father in defeat “And I won’t meddle.”

“Wait hol up, it was that easy!?” Tensei was in disbelief “I’m not in MORE trouble?”

“Oh sweet baby boy, there comes a time where everyone becomes more comfortable in their own skin” she smiled “and if this is your first step, then I will support you and continue to love you.”

Tensei smiled back “Thanks mom.”

Last day of summer break was spent at the salon and at the music store for some mother and son bonding time. Tensei couldn’t wait to enter school as a new person, his truest self. As for Hanaka, she couldn’t wait to show the girls what she’s learned with her quirk training.

-First day back-

“Okay we’re here- ninos? Are you okay?” asked their mother when she caught a glimpse of them in the rear view mirror “You look like you’re about to throw up!”

Hanaka and Tensei were stiff and nervously sweating, with their eyes fixed on the front gate.

“I just might, that’s the coach I snitched on in front of the court” Tensei peeped.

“I dunno if I’m ready to face everyone like I thought” gulped Hanaka.

Their mother looked at the front gate, then to them “Don’t tell your dad, but I’ll let you in on my secret to facing my fears.”

“We’re listening”

“Whenever I have to face my fear” she leaned in to her children and dropped to a whisper “I puff out my chest and I tell off every person that tries to belittle or kill me. Because I know I’m a bad bitch and these crusty, dusty and musty won’t tell me otherwise!”

The twins looked at each other and gave each other a nod.

“Okay then mom, we’ll see you later!”

She waved her children off “Have fun at school! Don’t tell you dad what I told you!”

The twins puffed out their chest and walked through like they didn’t just changed a ton since the last time.

“Iida! That hair cut is breaking code” Barked the teacher at the gate.

Tensei gave them the side eye “And so is cheating on your wife with the school nurse, yet you still broke that code huh?”

The twins kept walking, leaving that teacher dumbfounded in the dust. Everyone at the school were giving them looks and whispered around them, so it was safe to assume that they heard about what happened. It was homeroom time and Tensei was approached by Huei.

“Tensei, let me start-”

“No, your actions were unforgivable” Tensei cut him off “So unless you’re here to compliment my new hair cut, then we have nothing else to talk about.”

Huei scoffs “Then good luck finding another guitarist with my versatility!”

They walk away to their seat right as the bell rang.

Tensei outwardly acted like that didn’t bother him...but it did and he was panicking! He didn’t think about that consequence when cutting off his ONLY versatile guitarist! He didn’t have any other musician friends, or friends in general!

Meanwhile, Hanaka and the girls were giddy with their plans to train and share what they learned over the break.

“My papa had me on his regime” shared Twinkle as she rolled her shoulders “So many pull ups and cycling reps!”

“My dad had me hitting the books” Hanaka spoke up “It wasn’t so bad, Tensei was training and studying along with me.”

The other three girls stared at Hanaka like she just grew a third arm.

“Tensei trained with you?” questioned Petti “Like...trained to be a hero too?”

Hanaka nodded “Yuh I convinced him to train with me to go to hero school! My parents took it alright.”

“Nya! You changed so much Hanaka” cried out Kyanka.

“Eh? There was nothing to do!” Hanaka shrugged “Capital Punishment in my house is cruel, we didn’t even get toast for breakfast type of punishment. So of course I had to get along with Tensei! Lili and Iwa aren’t around to mediate things when I lose my temper.” She sighed and slumped back in her chair “I miss them! Sundays aren’t the same without them.”

“What happens on Sundays?” asked Twinkle naively.

The other three gasped, confusing Twinkle further.

“That’s right! You haven’t been to my house before!” Hanaka perked up “On Sundays we usually have backyard yakunikku, grilled meats and quality time. Usually we have my parent’s friends and their kids over, I’ll convince my parents to invite you and your dad.”

“Really?! I’ve never been to a backyard party” Twinkle beamed “I hope the food won’t be too spicy, those red chips you let me try before break set my mouth on fire!”

Petti put her hand on Twinkle’s shoulder “Oh you poor child, that’s the least spiciest thing you’ll eat if you’re gonna be coming over her house.”

“I can eat hot peppers right off the bush like berries Nya!” Kyanka said proudly.

Twinkled starts to nervously sweat “I’m scared.”

-Fast Forward to Sunday-

The usual Sunday activities popped off but all Tensei wanted to do is be face down on the hammock. He was still worried about finding another band member ON TOP OF revealing to his bandmates the double whammy that Huei is out and he has a new look.

“Mijo what’s wrong?” asked his mother as she floated over to the hammock “You’re reverting to your old habit of being face down when you’re upset.”

Tensei groaned “Mom why is it so hard to make friends when you’re older?”

“Aw it’s not that hard baby” cooed his mother “You’re also not that old silly! Come on sit up.”

Tensei obeyed “Is it really not that hard? Then how am I supposed to find another guitarist?! I really don’t want our band to fall apart, not after all that hard work we’ve put in.”

“Who’s to say that you need another guitarist?” She raised an eyebrow “Maybe you need a new sound too, a whole new direction.”

“Huh? But that’s so much to change!”

“Hey I said the same thing when I took on the CEO position and it all worked out” she pointed toward the grill “It lead me right back to the love of my life and into the future I thought I wouldn’t have.”

Tensei looked at his father and sister trying to light the grill.

“Why did you marry him?” asked Tensei “You could’ve been with anybody! But settled for this doofus.”

“Hey, he’s MY doofus” his mother laughed “But he’s the one person that cared about me before the fame and riches. And didn’t care how much I’ve changed, he just wanted to be in my company. Someday you’ll understand and your kids will be asking the same question.”

The sound of Aunty Mimi’s thick accent was heard from inside the house. Followed by Uncle Jin portaling in with his huge dish of fried rice. That was the cue to help out with setting up the food. Wasn’t long until his band mates came and flipped out over his new look. He took them up to his room to explain everything.

“...and now we’re down a member” Tensei took a deep breath “To be honest, I don’t have any idea who I can ask!”

“Hmmm, I don’t either” Masaru pondered

“Bro, you changed” Tetsu gave a thumbs up “I’m into this new look! LETS LOOK LIKE THIS DUDE!”

Tensei looked at the poster Tetsu was pointing at “Like Machine Gun Kelly? Hmmm...I guess? Our hair are already different colors, so just look more hardcore?”

“Way ahead of you bro!” Tetsu expanded his arms until his shirt sleeves ripped off “HARDCORE!”

Masaru and Tensei look at Tetsu with confusion.

“I feel like you just wanted an excuse to start wearing sleeveless shirts.” Masaru spoke up.

“I feel like there’s easier ways to do that” Tensei pointed out “Your mom is going to whoop yo ass when you get home for ripping your nice shirt.”

Tetsu realized his mistake “Oh man you’re right! My mom is going to whoop me into next week!”

“F in the chat for Tetsu’s ass” Tensei pray squat

“F” said the other boys.

The smell of meats grilling broke the boy’s congregation and into the backyard for some food. Tensei saw that there was some new people while he was grilling his meats.

“Is that- Ita you didn’t tell me your twins were paternal!” said a man with circular elbows “He has Tenya’s hair and eyes!”

“Yes, isn’t he handsome?!” gushed Tensei’s mom “Oh! Tensei, this is one of our old classmates, Sero Hanta.”

“Hi! It’s so nice to finally meet you!” Beamed the man “I knew Lili when she was just a baby but moved away before getting the chance to know the rest of the fam.”

“Oh Lili would’ve been so happy to see you. Say, where’s your son?”

“Huh? Oh where is that kid” the man looked around “He’s quite the illusionist, just like his mother!”

“Yes dad?” said a boy that looks nearly exactly like the man that just appeared out of nowhere.

“GAH! Don’t sneak up on me like that!” the man gestured toward Tensei “Introduce yourself.”

“Ummm Hi? I’m Maiko and I’m a second year in middle school” waved the boy nervously “I don’t really have friends and I moved here recently from Nagoya.”

“Hi I’m Tensei, it’s nice to meet you”

“I’m Masaru!”

“And I’m Tetsutetsu! But everyone calls me Tetsu” he kicked a chair out “Come sit with us!”

“Um Okay” the boy sat down cautiously.

“So....you happen to play guitar?” Tetsu cut to the chase.

“TETSU!” yelled Masaru and Tensei to make him shut up.

“What? We were all thinking it!” Tetsu defended himself “Might as well have it a starting point.”

“I kinda do actually” meekly spoke up the boy “I like to remix music and make beats with my computer. I have a whole set up with a synth and other instruments.”

“Do you sing?” carefully asked Tensei, trying not to sound desperate.

“Does rapping count?”

The three boys looked at each other with wide eyes and smiles spreading on their faces.

Tensei cleared his throat “I know we just met and you probably want to go home, BUT how would you like to be part of our band?”

“Say less!” the boy suddenly came out of his shell “I always wanted to be in a band, wanna listen to my latest diss track? It’s about my older brother and how he taped me to the toilet.”

The girls were looking on from the other side of the yard

“Wonder what got them so excited?” said Petti

“They’re getting along so fast! I’m proud of my twin” proudly stated Hanaka “He’s always such a loner.”

“It can’t be as exciting as this fried rice!” Twinkle cried out as they took their last bite of rice “Come get more with me Kyanka.”

“Nya that’s your 3rd plate!”

As Twinkle dragged Kyanka to the food table, Someone else came up to Hanaka and Petti.

“Hi Rosa, Petti” greeted Hoshi, Hanaka’s future brother-in-law.

“Hi Hoshi! When did you get here?” asked Hanaka.

“About 20 minutes ago, I didn’t want to miss another yakunikku” explained Hoshi “I missed the smell of meats and beets on a late Sunday afternoon. Plus your mom wanted to talk to me about something.”

“Work related?”

“Maybe?” Hoshi shrugged “But I heard you wanted to go to hero school! That’s exciting!”

Hanaka nodded “Yeah, my friends and I want to train together. But it kinda hard to get all of us to train on the same day.”

“If I could skip errands day with my dad, I totally would” sighed Petti as she scowled “It’s dumb as hell! What’s the point of taking me to the grocery store if he won’t buy what I want to eat?!”

“Oh? Are all of you planning to go to UA?”

“If we get accepted yeah” Hanaka replied.

Hoshi chuckled “Why wouldn’t the school accept you and your friends? All four of you are the daughters of alumni, heck, even I got in and I didn’t do so hot in the entrance exam! It’s the one perk of being a hero’s child.”

That made Hanaka think, and I mean ACTUALLY think about things. If that’s true...then did her dad and uncle not try as hard to get in UA? She waited until everyone left and things were cleaned up.

“Dad?”

“Hm? Yes Hanaka?”

Hanaka took a deep breath “When you did all those hero studies and training, did any of it matter in the entrance exam? Since you had a whole lineage of heroes attached to your name?”

Her father was astounded by her question “It’s true that I didn’t have to do the exam, but I did it anyways to prove my strength and knowledge.”

“Then do you think I will make it out there?” Hanaka asked “Be honest.”

“I know you will. I’ve seen you when you really want something” he smiled “You don’t stop until you have what you want, the easy way or the hard way. Just like your mom, she was always so dead set on things and did whatever in her power to achieve it. And she always gets what she wants.”

“But what if I fall short?” Hanaka’s insecurities set in “I don’t know what to fall back on! All it seems I’m good for is to be in hero work.”

“Don’t be silly you can...” her father started off then trailed off in thought “Hmm, you know what, I’m not even sure what I would’ve fallen back on if I didn’t make it as a hero!” he looked at Hanaka “Seems like that’s something we should look into huh?”

Hanaka giggled “You’d just be Mom’s sugar baby! Or a house husband!” she teased “Raising the kids and making bento for mom.”

“I guess that’s all I’m good for then” he laughed and ruffled her hair “Hero and house husband. But you don’t have to have all that figured out right now, you have yet to start the application process! One step at a time.”

“Okay then” Hanaka jumped to give her dad a hug “Thanks dad.”

Tenya gave her a squeeze before watching her run off to her room. The way she walked away reminded him of all those times her mother did the same when they were in high school.

“Did you ever think you’d have that conversation with her?” Ita cut in.

Tenya sighed “Not at all, they’re growing up so fast!” he turned to his wife “I’m both excited and afraid of what will come next. She acts so much like you.”

“Hope you’re ready to handle it” Ita giggled as she wrapped her arms around her husband “Exam season is coming up.”

The next day, at school

Tensei makes his way to the library for independent study period, just because he got a new look doesn’t mean he won’t upkeep his studies! His studying was interrupted by a group of boys that surrounded his area. Tensei looked up from his math textbook to see his old debate teammates.

“What can I do for you gentlemen” Tensei spoke to the group, trying to read their faces.

“Iida-kun we can’t do this anymore!” cried out Tanaka as he did a deep bow, the other boys follow suit. “Please rejoin the team! We need you.”

Tensei scoffed at the display of begging “You heard what I said at the mock trials, I’m good not coming back. What makes me so valuable that you’re begging? Need the token loser back?!”

“Don’t degrade yourself Iida-kun, we agree with you with the unfairness of the coach and the clearly rigged trials” Tanaka spoke up “In fact, the school investigated and found all the bad things coach did. It was enough for him to get fired!”

“Fired?! That’s why he’s not here today?” Tensei thought about it “Wait, that must of been a lot of dirt to get a tenured teacher at this academy fired.”

One of the boys tossed a file on the desk and slid it to Tensei “If you think that’s wild, read this” he waited for Tensei to flip the file open “Coach has been swindling funds from the various clubs he’s advisor for. Been sleazy with almost all the female teachers and staff. And the best part, he’s been bribing the judges at every away tournament for the debate club.”

“NO!” gasped Tensei

“YES! That means he was purposely trying to get you out of the team” Tanaka clarified “Probably to shut you up about the affair you knew about.”

Tensei thought back to that day “Well maybe they should’ve closed the door, maybe I wouldn’t have seen the scandal of him frenching the school nurse then answer his phone to his wife, wondering if he was going to be staying out longer.” He crossed his arms “He wasn’t down to eliminate me himself! I could beat his ass, no quirks!”

“So you’ll come back?”

“That’s the thing, I don’t know” sighed Tensei, looking at the eager faces of his old teammates “I’ve changed directions! Being lawyer is no longer my dream and I burned all that work that I did to find my true self. Now I’m so much happier like this” He gestured to his body “I’m afraid I’ve made up my mind fellas.”

“We’ll let you mohawk your hair to competitions”

“Nevermind, I’m suddenly competing once again” Tensei stood up from his seat “Gentlemen...shall we case build in the club room?”

Meanwhile, with Hanaka and the girls....

“Come on Hanaka!” cried out the three girls at the finish line of the track.

Hanaka was doing the optional relays in gym class but she wasn’t doing so hot. All the other students were leaving her in the dust. Trying really hard not lose pace, she felt very helpless against everyone else.

“Do the thing!” cried out Petti “Who cares?! Kick it into MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!”

Hanaka nodded and focused into using her engines, thrusting her forward in line with the others. She didn’t get first but at least she wasn’t dead last.

“Hanaka that was amazing!” said the three girls as they ran up to Hanaka.

“You’re on fire girl!” cried Twinkle

“Thanks!” beamed Hanaka.

“Nya! You’re literally on fire!” pointed Kyanka.

Hanaka looked at her shoulders, then to the track she just ran. Both of which were on fire.

“Oh oops, I forget that my sweat is flammable.”

The girls looked on as their gym teacher tiredly puts out the track fire with the hose.

“Would you like to get doused too Miss Iida?” asked the teacher.

“Yes please!” Hanaka closed her eyes and held out her arms for the semi-jet stream of the hose.

“Can we please contain the fires?” sighed the teacher “There’s other classes that use the track.”

“I’ll try!” apologized Hanaka “Sorry!”

The girls were the last ones in the locker room. Everyone else was already in their uniform.

“Hey Hanaka, have you ever set your entire body on fire?” asked Twinkle “I’ve only ever seen your head and arms on fire.”

“My mom said when I was little I did” recalled Hanaka as she applied deodorant “But I was like, a baby! I don’t remember what I did to activate that or if it’s achievable anymore.”

“It’s hard to control her fire quirk, she can’t feel cold or too hot!” spoke up Petti “When we were kids, Tensei or I had to hold her ice cream so she could eat it. Otherwise she’d insta melt it in her little hands! But in the winter she could go out in tank tops and shorts and not feel cold! EVEN IF IT’S SNOWING!”

Hanaka blushed “I wear a sweater to feel normal during the winter, otherwise I don’t really feel temperature differences” she started buttoning her uniform shirt “I’d like to someday go somewhere really cold to see if I can feel it.”

“Where would that be?” Twinkled wondered.

“I dunno, Hokkaido?” shrugged Hanaka “I’ll ask Tensei, he’s seen a map of the world. Bet he knows.”

The twins are back on track with themselves. They still have one more year of this...but the real work is coming sooner than expected.
