MHA monster manual- part 10 (One for All users were hard to figure how to put on a page, until I realized that Izuku shouldn't be the curator of this particular entry)

Would you ever make transcripts of the words written on the pages of the creature chronicles, both the notes and the faded words behind the drawings? I love your drawings, but it's hard for my eyes to read some of the notes, even if I zoom in :(
I really must apologize to anyone who ever tried to read these in earnest every time - especially since they were not intended to be read (ahaha). You're not the first to ask- I started to compile the flavor text into a little AO3

Omg i don’t know if you already have an idea for what to do.. but if you don’t yet could you make Dabi a winged dragon like creature for Dekus creature chronicles? your art is so amazing and i’ve always loved the dragon dabi aus and i’m curious to see your take on it. if not that’s totally okay i’m sure i’ll love it no matter what you think of since i’ve loved everything so far the details are so amazing 🥹💕
This is very sweet- I am afraid I'm not in the fandom to be familiar with AUs, but dragons are always a favorite pick amongst reimaginings. There happens to be only one true dragon in this particular story... but I can show you the Todoroki's now that I have them finished- (I plotted them as a unit)
You can learn a little more of the myths under the cut if you like :)

part 9! Nav: 1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9
tidbits under cut
Dabi was the lynchpin design-and his family was built around him! They are all creatures of reincarnation, but with various meanings.
Canon Touya threw around some choice words about being reborn as Dabi. The way he seems mentally stuck to his childhood felt like a Phoenix who can't (or perhaps won't) allow himself to grow beyond a certain point, doomed to repeat his self-destruction. Like the other AU villains though - he's a little more morally grey in this story.
Firebird (Slavic) are often harbingers of either good fortune, doom- or unattainable goals in their tales. If that doesn't sound like Endeavor I'm not sure what does. They differ from phoenix in which they are 'always on fire', but they don't self immolate - they're just 'built like that'.
Tsurara onna (icicle woman) are created from the loneliness of single men during the winter time. When a man gazes longingly at a strong, beautiful icicle, they may appear. They disappear in the summer, and may reappear in winter. The love stories invariably end in tragedy. Considering Rei's dynamic to Enji, it felt fitting.
A Snegurochka (Russian- Snow Maiden) the fairytales often echo tsurara onna, of maiden that melts due to "shenanigans" (not always tied to love stories). 
Simurgh (Persian) is more of a reach - you can really dive into their different lore and variations, but they are similar to phoenix in which they also immolate to reincarnate after a very long time. They have connections to both fire and water.
There's no myth creature equivalent of both fire and ice. Yet in canon, Shoto is the only one who doesn't provide himself a hero title. His name is his identity. So- he's the only "undefined" creature. There's a number of myths you could read him as if you wanted (he doesn't care).
... Dabi's pheonix fire also plays into forming the character Juzo (Not that anyone asked- this is reaaaaaaaallly reaching into the semantics on the yliaster, or prima materia that forms the philosophers stone- which mentions pheonix fire purification as a metaphor... ah don't worry about it).
Gashadokuro's are the scariest creature I could think of for a nomu.

I absolutely love your MHA fantasy/creature chronicles au! The designs are super creative and I can't say I've seen any others like it before. Do you have any plans for some of the other characters' creatures yet? (especially excited for Iida, Monoma, and Stain, lol-)
Thank you! 
And I do! My initial (grandiose) vision was to design the entire cast with unique creatures, with a pinch of plot and world building on the backend. Designing via "Rule of Cool" could have made this very messy, I needed to plan out what the cast was going to be at the onset. So, all 180+ of Hirokoshi's somebodies have a creature. I don't know if I'll GET to them all... but to help me get about half done, I split the story/characters into two parts. At the conclusion of the first, Deku's journal entries will come to an end. 
 ... you mentioned Iida. he will be coming up! (I've been delaying him, because then I'll finally have to lock into the "plot" and there's no going back)

Just checking in.
the difference in vibes in tumblr space and well… everywhere else is elite. I can’t tell if its because i worked too hard to curate a very specific feed in the past, if everyone left, or if everyone is just vibing.
Anyway, I hope you’re doing okay.

Can I just say, I'm particularly proud of this set- especially turning Susugu into a giant soap bubble making crab with vâltoares on his back, like... go me. That's a level of research I hope someone appreciates someday.

Kudos to @bibliodraco with the big brain of a baku FatGum, for which I would have never come up with a cute little sideplot with Shihai and Midnight.
