Had a silly (au) idea just now at the gracefully hours of 1am while listening to CORE and Waterfall ost from Undertale;
Nine sometimes goes to like a really old garbage dump somewhere at the outskirts of New Yoke city, either looking for inspiration, searching for random scarps he could use later for some inventions or just to pass the time somewhere else besides his workshop.
Once, he manages to find a really old looking, yet still somehow preserved set of burnt (what I mean by that is like a personal set of videos uploaded o pre exinsting discs, I'm clarifying becasueim useure if Im using the right word) CDs/cassettes. They were not in the best shape, but not too damaged to be thrown back out and ignored either. And idk if CDs exist in New Yoke but for the sake of this idea let's say that no, everything is just Bluetooth holograms, Nine either reverse engineers or reinvents a cassete/CD player to see what the deal with these things he found is, cause he really has nothing better to do.
After he's finished with the player, he boots the contents of his findings on the monitor and speakers in his workshop, getting rather startled to see bright blue and green colors dancing round the monitor screen. The video is really scratched up and lagging, but the short burts of stable video show what appears to be an unprofessional, thought of the moment recording of a family (either mobian or human idk) having fun playing round in a garden and laughing their hearts off, nearly hypnotizes the fox.
There's a still frozen frame for a second. At the edges a little motion blurred, but still visible grass patch with a single apple tree somewhere in the corner and a bright blue sky over the top with a barely recognizable brur of a child running trough the lower corner.
Nine stands still, completely mesmerized and subcontiously reaching of for the screen. If a bomb were to go off right behind him, he wouldn't notice nor perhaps even register things happening outside of the screen before him.
The only reasonable explanation the fox could find for the images he was seeing and the jovial and unnatural sounds he was hearing, was that this recording had to be way from the past. Way from the times the rebels only ever dream of returning. Where green skies and blue grass exist. Where there was not a single robot or a skyscraper in sight and people were full of life and hope.

the first Anne of Green Gables book is all about Anne being given a home and a family, people who love her and aren’t merely using her, someplace she belongs. and Gilbert is on the outside of that for the whole story, just this funny little rivalry that Anne hangs onto, someone who wants the privilege of belonging with Anne in some way, but whom she ignores, and ignores pretty easily. but at the very end he places himself at the center of the main story, no longer avoidable, by trading schools with her, so that she can keep everything that she’s grown to love—he claims his place in her heart by giving her Green Gables again, as a gift.

Unlike divorced!Kirishima (who told you he wanted to try taking a break before making anything official), I think Deku doesn’t mention anything at all before he tries to remove himself from your life.
Goes straight from simply acting busy and being distant to suddenly, fully ignoring you at home and over the phone; I don’t even think he tries to serve you divorce papers before he moves out entirely, so desperate to… what? You don’t know and probably never will.
(That is, until he returns after years of silence with tears in his eyes asking for you to take him back.)

btw idk if you know this, but if you're dealing with some bad lower back pain and it feels super tight down there, go find something you can safely dead hang from (no activation of muscles aside from hanging on like you're gonna do a pull up). Tree branches, monkey bars, pull up bar, whatever you have nearby. Hang for 30 seconds on, then take a break, then repeat a couple times. This can decompress your vertebrae and give a whole bunch of relief.
This is coming from someone who recently got pulled on my ass by a 40 pound cattle dog who'd seen a squirrel, and I landed pretty hard, wound up compressing my back for a few days. This is the only thing that helped haha. Stretching, foam rolling, etc wasn't addressing the root issue. This is good if you take a hard fall (landing on your ass or on your feet), or if you just sit a lot in general. Helps a TON with your lower back.
