people who undermine the importance of izuku and katsuki's relationship throughout bnha because of "annoying shippers" or because they just don't like katsuki are insane because their relationship is literally so? important??? to the entire story???? katsuki is the deuteragonist of bnha. he was one of the first characters to show up. he was the first other person to know about OFA. so much of the manga is spent showing his development. if you deny his character development and relationship development ("relationship" does not always mean romantic relationship) with izuku, you are quite literally denying a massive part of the series. the manga starts with them and ends with them. you're allowed to dislike him but if you dislike him so much that you, in turn, start hating how izuku is a "punching bag" or a "doormat" for the entire series because he doesn't stay angry and vengeful at people even though a massive part of his character is that he's compassionate and kind even to people who aren't to him or used to not be, and you seriously think that that makes him weak, and you just start to dislike the main two characters of the series, i think you should. idk. stop reading, probably. read the revenge fantasy shit that you obviously want to read. there are like seven million manhwa available to you where the character gets the revenge you so desperately want to see.

stan twins the canon cptsd brothers i will always think about all your unaddressed issues that would make perfect plot fuel for your spinoff

and also the whole 'stan getting that poem by bill via a website which contrasts with bill getting one from the axolotl via a website' foreshadowing thing

like idk i would love something like su future but like more optimistic, aka not an accumulated breakdown that has to be mostly resolved off screen at the end :/// but something thats being kinda addressed throughout? (although would love to see one of them turn into a monster thats always fun lol)

stan having severe issues from his dad and those years of being homeless that we keep on getting more info on but never really getting confronted on (the drifter catalogue and tijuana incident...), him being completely alone for like twenty years when running the shack before soos comes along to the point that 1998 is noted as his low point, and him not really learning about bill+what he did to ford until ages after he killed him if he ever did get the full context

while i think amnesia and everyone seeing him as a hero actually helped with stan's 'i'm a worse version of my brother' thing its still a lingering issue too and we now got him being insecure over his own hands

ford being immediately thrown from 'being tortured by bill' to 'being stuck in the multiverse and being chased by bounty hunters constantly', him fully expecting himself to die when destroying bill, and him only now being safe for the first time in 30 years ....relatively safe, he's still in constant danger because of course he is

idk in the end the series wants them to be happy and they deserve it, its why i wasn't too worried about the book being like 'ooh bill is back!! and the book is haunting ford' thing cos i knew they'll be ok

I’m sure this point has already been made to death, but I think a major reason as to why more…darker “x reader” fics are so prevalent and popular in certain spaces is because simply put… “x reader” fics, and by extension fanfiction and just general fiction, are probably one of the more healthy and safer ways for many irl readers and writers to navigate through their fantasies and/or traumas. Many of us recognize that our fantasies would be harmful to do irl, so we project it (?) through fiction.

Hey…….. Hey........... This is largely just headcanons and speculation for me and my good erimela (Erique x Flamela) and kabrinmick friend because we love Rin angst and her backstory's vague but it's interesting to think about lowkey so c'mere c'mere... Since my headcanon is that Rin grew up with the canaries, it'd be interesting to make Flamela & Erique her shitty distant mother figures……. For base info on Flamela and her little trio go here. Misyl is Flamela's more prominent convict, and Erique is Flamela's second in command, an ex-convict herself. It's unsure since how long they've all been assigned to each other, but we do seem to see both Erique and Misyl in Rin's backstory comic, and of course Flamela. Erique's the cold and serious type, often on the same wavelength as Flamela but balances out her more loud and impulsive sides, meanwhile Misyl is in the shortest way I can describe it, a fangirl.

Like, my take is that since Milsiril couldn't take her in, they sorta just... Kept her around. The canaries' headquarters is basically a prison, they have plenty of room and food to give to a meager kid. Rin was in shock so she wasn't one to throw tantrums- and well, we know who she grew up to be too. Rin grew up minded like an animal, eating rations and given no time of day. I go into it all a bit more here. She was an "impounded article" and the only piece of evidence to be able to tell if her family did do ancient magic or not, but the trauma made her mute, so they kept her around as a piece of evidence at first. Kabru was used as a shorthand for therapy and Rin gradually processed things and opened up and when she could talk again, talk to adult elves a month or two down the line is when the case could finally be classified, ancient magic hadn't been involved after all. Flamela was the one in charge of her case since she lead the investigation and was the one to retrieve Rin, so I like to think she also was the one to keep tabs on Rin's progress and try to get her to talk, the one more or less in charge of saying when the impounded article served its purpose and where to store it. Once things settle down, maybe Flamela still checks on her semi regularly, until eventually she doesn't ever. And where she goes, her second in command and prisoners follow.

Idk if birthdays are celebrated within the dunmesh world at all but god imagining Rin living with the canaries and year after year never having her birthday celebrated because she truly doesn't matter in this place and the pace of it wasn't built for her. She stayed there too short a time for her presence to have mattered- both negatively in that people didn't grow to care about her, but positively too in that she was allowed to stay for a decade because that's not that long to elves and so not much of a bother- she really just didn't matter and that was that. Her presence changed nothing.

I need her as a kid to be able to cry loudly into SOMEONE'S arms I'm going to make it happen by god. Milsiril-Rin dynamic is also interesting to think about since if Rin kept in touch with Kabru she doubtlessly has had run-ins with and has opinions™️ in the woman, either way...

I can definitely see how Rin would have grown so tough with Flamela monitoring her every so often- or even just with Flamela being her first/biggest impression of elves and "how we do things here, where you'll be living until you can take care of yourself and leave". And Erique & Rin duo? Would go so so hard. Ice queen forms ice queen.

Like would you not turn out like Rin if these two were the most memorable role models you have to survive in the system you live in.

Which is fun because it seems like Flamela doesn't really remember Rin either when they meet during canon? And with how traumatized Rin was and how she neverrr ever brings up her parents Rin may actively want to forget that time of her time or repress memories too. Rin grew up so much :/ Is she supposed to remember every face of insignificant shortlived people she interacts with!!!! Weird mother figure who forgets you're not a baby anymore so she doesn't recognize you, also you kinda hate each other.

Erique and Rin probably get along better but still. Elf. Honestly seeing Erique as a role model to Rin makes so much sense to me like is that not where Rin got the ice queen stance from……. She does not like elves but she thought erique was cool and seemed untouchable… So she wanted to be like that too so she wouldn't get hurt anymore…

Bonus points if Rin notices the whole erimela mess/they have some talks about it, like Erique has to wait on Flamela while with Rin or she feels like she should teach this despondent vulnerable child to be stronger- and Erique is the one to tell Rin that loving is a pain and to never, ever expect things from others. (Erimela kabrin parallels when…) In that "vaguely and briefly ranting to a kid and framing it as imparting wisdom" way adults do. Rin is quiet and just stares all the time when they're there and she looks disheveled and feral and maybe Erique relates a lil man…… She sees the fierceness and anger in her and is like, yes good, always bite the hand of your master, don't chain yourself to your slavery as I have, be rebellious and free and always prioritize yourself. Misyl is a little Mickbelly…… Misyl being super dependent and clingy with Flamela like that's the other thing Rin grows up seeing and that Erique points to like "don't be like that". Especially since Flamela barely reciprocates the attention like at all. Growing up seeing the Misyl-Erique-Flamela triangle mess… Rin fell into the same trap in the end after all. The cycle is too real...

And she saw Erique as a role model somewhat even if she was still spiteful of her right, but in the end she moreso became Flamela- rigid and angry and militaristic in attitude and discipline, and these 2 guys are pursuing her in very different ways but she's closed herself so much she can't see that or open up her feelings to anyone anymore. She's become Flamela, the big one of her 3 role models growing up even when she tried to be Erique, she's become the most suffocating one the most unhappy miserable non convict officer the one that upholds the system. The doom and tragedy of it………..

Makes me wanna spin dramatic poetry about mothers. Kabru had a foster mother all plushes and cakes, who couldn't quite try fleeing her past as a soldier but tried, Rin had a general. Kabru had someone to dry his tears and Rin had someone tell her to suck them back in. Rin had a mother figure she never saw as such and never wanted to let her have any importance in her life, but the ghost of her still hangs in how straight she keeps her back while standing and how she frowns at everything. She's become the person she least wanted to be tied to. Neither chose their replacement mother but both have become irreparably shaped by them.

Is it maybe a little pretentious to have my persona be more.. god like? Perhaps- XD

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In one manner, Starry is a sovereign of the night sky, the stars at dusk. She watches over the world, spanning across several universes, and her domains resides above them all. She spends her time watching over the little people in their worlds, embarking on journeys, meeting strife, falling to love and loss. She does not instill fate, she simply watches, but she knows of what is to come. She does not exist to any of them, as a concept outside of their universe, the goddess of their gods. And yet?

In another manner, she is nothing. Nothing omnipotent or all-powerful about her, other than her regal/elegant looks. She is a big nerd at heart, kicking her feet and giggling at people's writings and aus. She may have curved horns and stars dotting midnight skin, but she is no more of a god than a human wearing a yellow poncho. She resides our with the community and has the niche ability to summon a blue martini glass that she can communicate through/physically embody if need be. Why? Comedic humor. XD /hj /silly

"An Introduction..."

You feel yourself being flung across an unfathomably great distance at terrifying speeds against your will. In the blink of an eye, you see the world below you as you fly through space; in another blink, the Sol system is beginning to disappear from your sight entirely. Before the vacuum of space has the time to steal your breath, though, a flash of light envelops you, and you witness a violent expanse of energy before you as you continue to be yanked somewhere unknown.

Another flash of light, you feel the pull release and tumble to a halt; there’s only darkness around you save for a dimly glowing door. Seeing nothing else around you and with no other prospect of escape from this weird place, you steel yourself and prepare to enter. You take the latch in your hand, give it a gentle turn and find it unlocked. Swinging the door forward, you take a step in…

.

.

.

…and find yourself in a room; a study, by the looks of the various scientific instruments, academic manuals, and artistic diagrams. Immaculately clean, the room also appears to have a fireplace actively roaring in the corner, and a table is set up with a variety of little snacks; someone has prepared this study quite recently. You hear the door behind you, and you quickly turn to prepare for this unknown individual - yet you turn around and see nothing. After a few seconds, a gentle tugging at the hem of your clothes forces you to look down. 

A diminutive, green-skinned creature - maybe no more than four feet tall, if it was able to stand up a little straighter - stares up at you attentively. An inquisitive sparkle glints in their golden eyes, and they take time to study you as you study them. Then, seemingly satisfied, their folic ears wiggle in excitement and they extend a four-fingered hand towards you in greeting.

“Well, hi there, stranger! Funny seeing a new face around here, but I sure do appreciate the company.” You both grip and shake, and they flash you a smile; you notice their incisors are pointed like their elongated canines. “Please sit, and help yourself! I’m sure wherever you came from was far away, and you’re most likely hungry.” Finding yourself a seat, you indeed do help yourself to some of the food that, while foreign to you, looks rather appealing. The stranger eats along with you for a while, sitting across from you between stacks of journals; after no more than a few minutes of silence, they finally speak again.

“You’re probably wondering the basics, who, where, why, all that? Well, let’s start with the basics. My name is Gobb’ola, but you can call me Gobbi if you find that easier! This is my little haven, my preferred home-away-from-home; I came across it just like you, quite accidentally and not by my own choice. The Sea has a mind of its own, like that.” They jab their thumb behind them, and you notice what you initially thought was a polished mirror, shimmering in the firelight, is in fact a window, looking out into the great dimension you were previously zooming through.

“Beautifully terrifying, yes? Bless the dead Hædon I had a device to return to where I came from. You, however: I do not know where you come from, and I doubt you’re a human from my world; unlike lightning, the tunnels of Stability rarely strike twice. 'Earth', you say? Then you’re most certainly from a different reality than my own, for the ships of my world haven’t encountered nor named a planet 'Earth' yet.

“And, unfortunately, without knowing where exactly Earth is in relation to here, I don’t think I can be of much help in getting you home,” they state, with regret lacing their words. A tea kettle they had set over the fireplace begins to whistle, and they rush to attend it while you let the weight of their words sink in. Coming back with the kettle in a gloved hand, they help set out a couple of saucers and cups for the two of you; they hold out a selection of tea for you to choose from, then pour water into your cup for you before pouring for themself and sitting down.

After what seems like an eternity of realizing you can’t go home, they clear their throat and look up at you. “However…I do believe you can fit right in with my world, if you so choose. You appear just like any other human, and as long as we get you even somewhat familiar with how things work over there you should do just fine! Otherwise, you’re more than welcome to make yourself at home here; quite honestly it’s probably a lot cozier than what you’ll find out there.” After taking some time to consider it, you agree to just crash here for now, at least until you’ve heard more about this strange world of humans and not-humans that this Gobbi is from.

Cleaning up after yourselves from the snacks and tea, you both go over to the fireplace; Gobbi carries quite a large stack of books behind them first, then turns back and struggles to carry over what appears to be a globe. Visibly straining yet refusing to accept your help, they beam up at you and ask, “who’s ready to learn!?”

Setting down the globe, they sit in an armchair across from your own, take a deep breath, and prepare themself. “Now then, let’s talk about this little world, called Karya..."

Edit - hi, everyone! You can just call me the Goblin with a Problem :3 this is my first every Tumblr post, and so I wanted to use it to introduce people to what Project KARYA is all about:

Project KARYA is a setting of my own design, blending characteristics from both the sci-fi and fantasy genres (as I like to call it, a "sci-fintasy" setting). Since 2022 I've been slowly worked on my "little" worldbuilding project, after I was dissatisfied with never having what I considered a cohesive setting to play Dungeons & Dragons campaigns in.

My overarching goal (aside from making my own TTRPG) has been to explore a world that would otherwise be classified a "high fantasy" setting, and analyzing it through a scientific/science fictional lens. In my future posts, you'll be seeing creatures from Earth's past being given a present in Karya, often to explain beasts or monsters from folklore and mythoi; materials with properties unknown to our own universe and barely predictable in Karya's take part in everyday life; cultures and languages will find a way to mimic our own as you see them develop over the course of thousands of years; and more!

Last year, 2024, was when my creative drive for this project really took root. Since then, I've been doing a variety of things to breathe life and reality into both the titular world of Karya, as well as its general universe. The main focus of this has been on little slideshow presentations, dubbed "Gobbi's Lessons" (after the nickname for my online persona/OC, Gobb'ola Mawwick). Each slideshow/lesson will cover a singular topic in relation to Project KARYA; this first season of lessons are currently dedicated to the prehistory of Karya, leading up to the climatic, nigh world-ending event known as the Restructuring.

I hope you enjoy all future Gobbi's Lessons posts, as well as all content relating to my setting as a whole! Please feel free to refer to my /ask page for any info you'd like to obtain on Karya, its local star system, or the reality it resides in as a whole.

Have a nice day~
