A tale in 4 parts

[manlyprospering]

It’s kinda cool how someone can just pop into your life all of a sudden and become so important to you within such a small amount of time. I think that’s what makes life so interesting though. There’s always a reason to be hopeful for the future because you never know what good things will come your way next.

do you think Aizawa is married? i've seen some people say that he has a wife and kid (not the Erasermic family)

Absolutely not.

You can see his backstory in Vigilante. He's going basically from underground hero (where he's virtually homeless or lives in very temporary places) to UA as a teacher - there is nothing to suggest that in the 3-4 years he's been at UA he would have married.

luz and eda were both raised by a mother who wants the best for them, even if she goes about it in an arguably flawed way, and both ultimately run away from what is wanted of  and accidentally find portal but the difference lies in their feelings about their mother because while luz desperately wants to return to hers eda resents her mother and keeps pushing her away and the most important part is that neither of them is shown to be in the wrong about their feelings

I knew the MOMENT I saw that scene, I had to draw this out. The idea of the applebees post is too powerful

Luz, falling back: ugh-!

Belos: I suggest you give up now, human

Luz: it isn’t over yet, Belos. I have one more trick up my sleeve

Belos: and what is that?

Luz: Apple or bees?

Belos: ...Bees?

Luz: *steps aside to reveal Gwendolyn*

Gwen: Bees it is then

I love how old cartoons had morals of "be a buddy not a bully" and "don't litter" and "listen to your parents" and now we're up to "don't join a psudeoscientific pyramid scheme in an attempt to cure your daughter's chronic illness"

All these authors are amazing writers and lovely people on discord— definitely check them out!

Favorite fics by some of your buddies on Tumblr and Discord?

Oh man, there's so many! It's hard to limit myself, especially since I read such a wide range of fic. I can find enjoyment in just about any trope or genre to an extent, and I have like... 900 bookmarks haha. Sorry not sorry for the amount of pure adoration I have for these people and their fics. A few of my favs (but by no means is this all of them) are: https://archiveofourown.org/works/27274960/chapters/66637159 Little Sunshine, by CosmicMerman. I adore this fic. I usually have a hard time getting into the whole "Izuku gets turned into a cat" trope... but this isn't really typical of the trope considering the *twist.* This fic is just. so good. Aizawa is the focus character in this, and their characterization of him is just phenomenal, and the way they portray depression is really realistic and I just. felt. it. in my chest. I will never not gush about this fic. https://archiveofourown.org/works/31689026 we are but remnants of stars (and somehow you still shine) by CalicoLynx @faelwenholdsthelight I may be a bit biased here, because this is a gift fic they wrote for one of my prompts during fic-fight... but man, did they nail it. They knew exactly how to target me directly and kick my knees out from under me. It's a sweet fic, but it also kinda hurts and that's my whole jam. Light Tododeku, which is my favorite ship. Plus, the characters are .stars. literally. Space is like... my whole thing. What's not to love? https://archiveofourown.org/works/22155211/chapters/52887604 Presumed Dead, by cornflower_Blue @cornflowerbluewrites Ok, listen. Like everyone here, I have a very hard time picking any one fic I love for Alice. She's got so many that I adore. Phoenix, worm fic, just... all of them. But I chose this one in particular because I have a soft spot for kidnapping/escape/gasp he's not dead? tropes. My first MHA fic is a kidnapping/recovery fic, after all. And Alice does it so well. She knows how to capture the characters I love. https://archiveofourown.org/works/25942834 Phantasmagoric by Orkestrations @autisticmidoriyas Again, it's hard to choose, but phantasmagoric and it's sequels just hit me hard in all the right ways. Dire, hopeless timeloop situation, angst, hurt/comfort with all my favorite characters, who's characterizations are all just. On point. Dadmight. Dadzawa. It's just my jam all around and Kestrel is an amazing writer. https://archiveofourown.org/works/24798505/chapters/59972725 Complicated Creation by Elemental @elementalsight Is a fic rec post even really a fic rec post without CC? Haha. Elemental handles this AU setting so well, and all the characters are incredibly fleshed out and believable in the world, while still staying true to their canon selves. I adore AU fics that don't get rid of quirks, and you can tell that they put so much time and effort into the worldbuilding. There, there's five recs from me. I could honestly go on for days because there's so many writers I love and who's fics I admire. I can always do more later if people are really interested!

happy pride to queer role models and fish

do you have an "about" page with relevant information about yourself (eg pronouns, a name you go by, etc)? only i like your blog but always feel strange about following blogs with no face so to speak

I’ve answered this before so we’re going to do this bullet points style

-If there are categories of people you don’t want to follow please assume I belong to all of them

-If you need my demographic info before you can decide if you agree with my opinion or not please disagree with my opinions

-Please assume I am up to no good - this is a good thing to assume with any blog on here - even blogs with faces may be no-faces in disguise

-All of the information you want has been posted here at one time or another if you want to know but I like having that threshold of difficulty in place - if you want to get your creep on I want you to have to work for it

-I am hoping the irony of your having sent this ask anonymously is not lost on you

And, for all bloggers everywhere, a quick reminder: you don’t owe anybody jack shit!

As important as explicit gay rep is, nothing will ever be funnier to me than an entire fandom collectively deciding a relationship between two characters is gay without even a shred of subtext
