#sdkfjsdf words i never thought i'd be using to describe yoichi: extra meat

[shih-coulda-had-it]

I wonder if being pretty much feral for a number of their formative years left noticeable effects on the twins

for sure! if not physically, then socially. i think there's a fun angle to explore as to whether all for one's vestiges affected his growth; i know some writers have used the 'One for All is Haunted' trope to the extent that Izuku's vestiges affect his personality/tastes, so it's not a huge stretch to think that baby AfO was being subtly influenced (when does he start having the nightmares?? they're first mentioned in C287 btw).

i'm inclined to think that the mother's vestige, at least, was integral to getting AfO to care about Yoichi instead of thinking of him as, like, extra meat.
