~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tiny, graceful, slender bodies and tight buns. Pink flittering tutus and smudged stained shoes. Rock hardened muscles and curved thighs; cracked toenails and bleeding soles. Dancing fingers and stretched out arms.

These were all things of ballerinas. The beauty and elegance along with the pain and practice were all things you longed for. From the pointed legs and the hours of torment.

You longed to be a ballerina. From the day you could first remember, watching those graceful figures creating stories across the stages. Singing with their bodies and speaking with their movements.

All of it seemed so magnificent. However, you weren't exactly built to be a ballerina. Your body was larger and muscles wider. Any and every class you tried to enter you were met with glares and snickers. Cruel words behind raised hands and mocking laughs.

For a period of time, you were dishearten. However, you parents refused to let you give up. So, you were sent to class every night, with rude classmates and cruel teachers never believing you could do it.

Stuck in an endless cycle of torment and mockery you began to hate to dance. That is until your teacher told you, you had to stay after to practice.

Late, many hours after the sun had fallen, you were in the studio alone with the music playing softly throughout the room. You raised up on your toes, trying your hardest to hold a releve, however your legs trembled and buckled causing your legs to give out. Stumbling forwards, you bumped into the bar and sent it skittering across the room into more bars and you fell to the ground as the sets of bars tumbled over in a loud crash.

Heat raced across your cheeks as the lights above you flickered and glitched, sends a cast of shadows across the disaray of bars on the ground and smudged hardwood. Looking over to your own reflection you sighed, pressing your hands against your face. You looked ridiculous in your black leotard and ratty ballet shoes. You only had tights no tut, it made you look even less like a ballerina then you usually did. Your thighs looked huge and your torso- you looked more suited for football or rugby the ballet.

Pressing your head against your knee you sniffed, feeling something burning in your throat and itching at your eyes.

Why couldn't you just be pretty? Like them? Dainty and small, delicate and elegant. Why couldn't you be a ballerina?

The burning turning into something stronger as something warm began slipping down your face and the itching faded. Your body shook and you squeezed yourself the best you could against your legs.

Suddenly you heard the bell on the front door jingle and your head snapped up. Who could it be at this hour? Was it something thug? Someone coming to hurt and take the dainty dancer practicing at this hour? Boy were they in for a surprise when they saw you.

 Rubbing at your eyes and sniffing you pushed yourself to your feet before looking around. There was nothing as the flickering light began to steady. You heard slinking and soft footsteps before you held your arms to your chest. There was another clattering when a blurr of colors rolled into the room.

“Where are you bad guys? Come out!!" 

You blinked a few times to see the red, green and yellow clad vigilante Robin, in front of you. His arms raised ready to strike whoever he thought was hiding in the shadows. 

"Are you alright civilian?" He asked in too deep of a voice to be his own.

You stuttered, sniffles escaping you as you backed away from him, "I'm-I'm sorry there no one here but m-me." 

He turned towards you blinking when he dropped his arms. 

“Oh," Something in his stance sagged slightly but he looked at your and you saw his forehead crinkle, "are you okay?" 

You nodded slowly, feeling a bit more sobs building up in your chest as you gestured towards the pile of bars on the ground. 

"I-i just fell and they fell." 

Robin blinked and then nodded smiling. He jumped and bounced around the room, somersaulting as he examined it. He suddenly paused and looked back to you before his face lit up. 

“OH, are you a ballerina?"

You froze blinking at him in surprise. Was he being serious? 

"Uh, what?"

Robin bounded towards your eyes practically glowing as he stared at your shoes.

"You are a ballerina! That's so cool. Could you show me some of your moves?"

You shook your head feeling something hot and angry in your chest. He- he had to be making fun of you. There was no way he was being serious right now. 

"No, No. I-i'm not a ballerina. Are you crazy?" 

Robin blinked and looked you up and down, his brow creased once again, and his mouth twisted upwards in a strange kind of way that made it look like a little knot.

"Why not?"

"Have you seen me? I look nothing like a ballerina." 

Robin shrugged before bouncing more around the room. He paused then gestured to himself.

"I don't know. I don't think I look like a hero."

You opened your mouth to explain how it was different but paused. Was it? Was it really that different.

Sighing you fiddled with your fingers and let out a breath.

"I- I'm not very good." You began and Robin stopped in his tracks.

"That's okay! When I first started with B I wasn't very good either... I mean it's also cuz he didn't really want me to come with him."

Your brow furrowed as you looked at him and tilted your head, "B?"

"Batman."

"Oh, he didn't want you as a sidekick?"

Robin snorted shaking his head before he began flipping and bouncing again.

"Of course not. 'it's too dangerous'. But now he has no choice so here I am!"

Hmm, that was weird. You could have sworn Batman wanted Robin. Oh well... "I- I'll show you some of what I know but you can't laugh."

"Got it! Show me!!!!"

"Okay."

Taking in a breath you went to begin a rise into a releve when you heard a grumble of sorts. Robin frowned before sighing.

"I have to go."

"Oh-uh I- I'll be here again tomorrow if you wanna-if..."

"Tomorrow? Awesome! I'll be here. See you then!"

You smiled slightly as Robin bounced around the room once again. Nodding you watched him move towards the door before you paused.

"You're-you're welcome anytime!"

"See you tomorrow!"

He bounced out the door rolling into a summersault, and you smiled before walking towards the bars. You'd have to practice if you didn't want to embarrass yourself in front of Robin. Yanking one of the bars up you positioned yourself beside it.

"One, two three and-" You muttered before rising upwards.

Hi! Could you do a Tenya Iida fic x fem!reader? Either a soprano opera singer or ballerina, just something super delicate and feminine to contrast his stoic and boxy character. Fluffy cuddles after a long day of hero work and rehearsal please!

warnings: none

notes: hello! i sing soprano in a chorus and i dance ballet, so this is gonna be fun to write. i chose ballerina because i have more experience with that. i wrote it in a way that made sense to me so i’m sorry if it wasn’t the exact way you requested it

(as a quick little backstory) when you met at ua, you guys got along very well

you weren’t very loud as a person so you never bothered the learning environment

this was why he liked you so much

he never had to tell you to quiet down in the middle of class

you ended up sitting together at lunch and eventually started dating

nobody at the school knew except for the people you and iida agreed to tell

so it was basically only todoroki, deku, momo, tsu, and uraraka who knew

you guys didn’t show any pda because you respected iida’s boundaries

you showed more affection towards each other when you went to your house

this was where he saw medals and trophies on a shelf

he thought it was so cool that you could manage to balance your dancing and school at the same time

he’ll go to recitals if you want him to

(okay as pro heroes)

even when you’re older he respects that you’re able to do hero work and ballet dance at the same time

he loves that in you

on a day that you had to go to rehearsal in the morning, and had to go on patrol later in the day, iida would be so sad for you

he isn’t even involved with any of it

but he feels your struggle of all of those things at the same time

when you get home he’ll open the door as soon as he sees you go into the driveway and give you the biggest hug

it’s awesome because his shoulders are so big and they make it so that your whole body is engulfed in his body warmth

he’ll pick you up and bring you to bed because he knows you must be tired from all the work you had to do

he won’t stop hugging you until you ask him to but i don’t see why you would

main point is that he respects all of your hard work so much and will do anything to make it so that you’re comfortable after it all.

Not Today Mister - Chapter 9

Aizawa x Reader Masterlist

-

Aya took you out to get some coffee, to talk more about Aizawa and your situation away from any possible prying ears and eyes.

“As crazy you are over him, you need to start thinking he’s a regular man.” Aya spoke up, giving you the cup, she picked up from the front of the coffee shop. You sighed as you reached for the cup and grabbed it.

“He is not regular!” You respond, slapping your hand on your knee for effect. She just stared at you blankly.

“He’s a regular man, just like every other man.” Aya replied, raising her eyebrows at your reaction.

“But he’s a hero!” You tried to explain but she shook her head.

“So is Endeavor.” She snorted.

“Ew, don’t compare my man to that pile of flaming trash.” You scoffed, taking a sip from your cup.

Aya rolled her eyes but nodded, “Okay, yeah, sure, he’s better than Endeavor. I’m happy you don’t like Endeavor.”

You two laughed as you responded, “If I liked Endeavor, please slap me out of that nonsense. He’s so mean to everyone!”

“Okay, enough bashing the number one hero. Now, let’s talk more about Aizawa.” Aya spoke up, stopping her laughter.

You scratched your head, “Uh, what do you want to talk about him? I’m all for this, but I don’t want to be emotionally blackmailed in the future.” Aya chuckled at that and placed her coffee on the table.

“I wouldn’t emotionally blackmail you.” Aya said and then you gave her a pointed look.

“Hm, really? Cause,” You got caught off with Aya sighing.

“I’m sorry. I won’t do it again, I promise.” Aya swore and you smiled at her.

“Good.” You noted.

“Okay! Okay… let’s get to it. We are going to set up a plan. You can’t give all this power to some man you haven’t ever spoken to. So, at least speak to him once and make sure you like him. What if he’s actually some rude asshole?” She rambled and you laughed and shook your head.

“Talk to him? Also no, I’m not giving him power! I have the power here, because I know who he is and I’m avoiding him because it’ll distract me from reaching my dream vacation, you know this!”

“Avoidance and power are two separate things.” She shook her head.

“When did you start being a therapist?” You groaned, dropping your head down to the table.

She snorted, “When my best friend started to act like a lunatic.”

“You’re just supposed to be a pro hero, stop being a therapist.” You criticize playfully.

She rolled her eyes and drank some coffee, “After you stop being crazy about some guy.”

“Deal.” You laughed.

“So, the plan starts off with talking to him. Learn what to type of person he is and if he’s actually a good guy. And I know you can’t talk to him face to face so we’re going to do solve that by making a situation where you can talk to him without him seeing you. Then you’re going to decide if you actually really like him or not. If not – then congrats! You go on your dream vacation without any problems. If you do, then we’ll go to part 2 of the plan.”

You stare at her with wide eyes, “Okay, first off, how are we going to make that happen? That situation thing?”

She shrugged, “I don’t know but it’ll have to be in UA. Is there a dance room or a ballet room, something like that?”

You perk up, “Oh, yeah! There’s an interrogation room with a two-way mirror, good idea!”

“I’m the best at ideas.” She bragged, laughing.

“You are, so how should I bring him to the room?” You asked.

“Uhhh, no clue.” She spoke.

“Damn it.”

-

You left soon after the plan was completed. Aya helped you a lot, you didn’t expect her to, but she did. You grinned at the thought of her, and you knew you’d have to pay her back or give her a few gifts as a thank you.

You were back at UA now and had a few things to do. You still needed to figure out how to bring Aizawa into the interrogation room, but you also had to do your job now. You couldn’t forget about that.

You tried to think about how to get him into an interrogation room. You couldn’t find a way without speaking face to face with him and you couldn’t do that. Maybe you’d have to ask someone for help. Nezu would help you but then you’d have to explain why you had to speak to him in the first place – which would reveal that you lied to him.

In the meantime, you have to do your job now.

You pushed your cleaning cart along with you as you started to mop the floor of one of the main hallways. It was after school ended, so not many students and staff were still around the classrooms.

In fact, you checked the cameras to make sure a specific man was not here (Aizawa), and you were glad to find he left the moment class ended. He was probably going to go sleep in his room here and then get ready to go on patrol.

You hummed as you slowly got to the classes to mop the floors. They were mostly still clean, except there was some dust in the corners and a bit of mud on the carpets by the entry ways.

“Hello there, listener!”

You gasped and flinched in shock at the loud voice and turned around to find Hizashi Yamada standing behind you.

“Oh, hi there.” You spoke back politely as you nervously gripped the mop in your hands.

“I have some stuff I need to speak to you with…” Hizashi grinned widely at you. He noticed how nervous you were and took a step back, hoping to calm you down.

You were nervous for one main reason. He was Aizawa’s best friend! They’ve been friends since high school! You had no reason to talk to Hizashi too, so you wondered what exactly he wanted from you now.

[justsomeoneintoomanyfandoms]

Hi! Could I get a haikyuu, MHA and Percy Jackson matchup, please? My (nick)name is Shan, and my pronouns are she/her. I'm also straight. I'm a virgo with an INTJ/INTP mbti type. I have wavy brown hair which I usually straighten, they go down to my waist. I also have light brown eyes and fair skin. I'm 5 foot 2 and I'm pretty slim. I'm also very sarcastic, and often considered to have a very complex sense of humor. I don't talk a lot, unless it's with my friends and I'm very competitive about the things I'm passionate about (ballet and studying). I also like making silly jokes and puns to light up my friends' moods. I'm often awkward around new people, which is sometimes mistaken as rudeness, but I swear I just get shy. I like reading, ballet, studying, the color pink and little heart doodles. I dislike the rain, failing in tests and someone being better than me at things I like. My hobbies are writing, reading, ballet, swimming, playing the guitar and studying. That's all <3 Have a great day and make sure to stay hydrated, thank you!

Hi Shan! Thank you for your request! Sorry it took so long. I hope you like your matchups!

In Haikyuu, I match you with...

You and Yamaguchi are very similar at first glance. You’re both quiet and a bit awkward but underneath that, you both have a great sense of humour and a whole lot of sass.

I think the main difference between the two of you is that you’re more open with your sarcasm and humour than he is. Because of this, I feel like Yamaguchi often feels like you’re saying the things he wants to.

Yamaguchi’s definitely more in touch with his feminine side than a lot of his friends so he’d love it if you’d teach him some ballet. It might even help with his agility and coordination on the volleyball court.

He knows you don’t like failing tests so he’ll do his best to help you study in return. Whether you’re stuck on something or just want company, he’s there for you.

Please write little notes for him with heart doodles and slip it in his bag. Yamaguchi’s self-confidence isn’t great so this will mean a lot to him.

In My Hero Academia, I match you with...

The sarcastic couple of UA has arrived! No one dares challenge you or Shinsou when you’re together simply because they know that however sarcastic as you each are alone, it only gets worse when you’re together.

He’s pretty quiet and awkward as well but since you feel comfortable around each other, that’s not as much of an issue as you’d think.

Shinsou really likes reading with you. He might not get a whole lot of free time because of his hero training but he does enjoy reading a good book in better company.

I feel like Shinsou has a bit of a competitive streak as well. For you, it’s because you don’t like people being better at things than you are. For him, it’s to prove that he’s more than his quirk.

As long as you can support each other and help the other recognise when you desire to be the best is becoming detrimental, you’ll both be fine.

In Percy Jackson, I match you with...

Will is your exact mirror image: Sarcastic and funny on the outside, quiet and complex on the inside. It’s one of the reasons you two get along so well.

Enjoys studying with you. He’s got to keep up to date on his medical knowledge, so he does a lot of study sessions. It’s nice being about to sit with someone while doing that.

Loves listening to you play guitar. His inherited talents may lie more with medicine than music, but he can still appreciate some good playing when he hears it.

Like you, Will’s also not a huge fan of rain. He’s the son of the sun god so he usually prefers sunny weather. At least you can keep each other company when the weather isn’t so nice.

But when the weather is nice, please go swimming in the lake with him. He loves getting away from the ward and relaxing in the weightless feeling the water provides.

Greetings!!

I’ve started a new job and am doing the best I have in a very long time, I would love to write more fatgum fics but kinda lost interest in the ones I was working on so those are on hold. Winter is already in full swing where I live, so I am thinking of doing some cozy vibes! Please vote which fics you would like to see the most! (Please note, I only write SFW) 

Option 1: Nutcracker ballet, a classic anime trope I have seen is an alice in wonderland style episode. Wherein the characters take on roles from the story...with Christmas coming up, why not do something similar but instead with my favorite childhood story?

Option 2: Fall festival with Nighteye, he is surprisingly very bad at carnival games. 

Option 3: Aizawa is sick and refuses to rest...until he passes out right in front of you.

Option 4: Frost Might, you and Allmight decide to have some fun in the snow. 

Option 5: Present Mic x quirkless reader, Hizashi rescues you and protects you along with your students when yet another LOV attack happens at UA. (Let's give some love to class 2A)

Option 6: fatgum x reader, under the oak tree AU: don't know if you have read the webcomic but basically, you were arranged to marry Taishiro and you're unconfident in yourself. However, when he returns from war you are amazed with how much he loves you. (who knows, I could make this into multiple parts potentially!)

Doctor Luis was shocked by the hygiene of UA. Such a prestigious place and yet everyone here is so gross and disgusting! The place is filled with girls and femboys alike covered in acne, sweat, grease and smelling like dumpsters! The menus were nothing but lard and cheese, the pros were equally as gross and he was left to look after them all!

"We're here for out checkup doctor Luis!" The familiar voice of one of U.A's femboys filled the air as Izuku with a wide messy smile on his face waddled into the examination room followed behind by a very grumpy looking Bakugo.

The two obese femboys weren't wearing their usual uniforms instead both sported pink leotards and tights along with frilly pink tutus. They had just got done attending professor Midnight's heroic ballet class when they got the call to report to the nurses' office.

figure skater todoroki shouto au

The image of todoroki-kun figure skating has been stuck in my head for the last few days. Men's figure skating is MASSIVE right now in japan as everyone is chasing hanyu yuzuru's shadow. like japan might be THE strongest country in the world right now for men's figure skating even with hanyu's retirement, or maybe because of it japan's got like 10 male skaters that are jostling for like 3 positions its a bloodbath, which is why jp nationals will probably be the only event i watch this season (well and maybe worlds or 4 continents). the only other contender would be the US but that's mostly nathan chen, the other american skaters aren't quite as strong as the japanese ones.

im off topic. i just think figure skating really fits todoroki, it fits well with his ice powers, he's got the right physical build for it, and the aesthetics suit him. Figure skating as a sport has a lot of similar problems to gymnastics and ballet (though a bit less bad). so right around highschool age to the mid twenties tends to be the peak career of figure skaters, the only ones who tend to stick around into the late twenties or thirties are the really good like olympic medal level ones. and so as a highschooler todoroki is right about the time a skater would be breaking out into the senior division.

It fits with his initial character presentation too. I can imagine todoroki taking up figure skating as a way to better connect with his ice powers and the mother who was taken away and as a fuck you to his father. because both skating and hero training raise his base athleticism they're pretty compatible with each other. highschool's aren't free in japan so i imagine he still goes to UA while skating competitively, though i can imagine him both working as a hero afterwards or skating professionally after graduating. imagine if he included ice skating techniques to improve his speed and maneuverability (figure skating for precision and aerials, speed skating for well speed).

competitive skating fits him personality wise as its the peak of athleticism for the sport and while quiet, todoroki is competitive and driven to succeed. Much like how todoroki is cool on the surface and runs warmer underneath, i like the contrast between an elegant sport like figure skating and the aggression inherent to a competitive sport. i imagine that despite his cool ikemen appearance todoroki's a power/speed skater like uno shoma is. and even after leaving competition i love the idea of him using his ice powers as a part of exhibition skates.

Men's costumes over the last decade have been increasingly moving away from the rhinestone bodysuits towards costumes that look like workout clothes or suit blazer jackets and slacks, you can see this trend with nathan chen but really watch any international competition. and i think todoroki would follow this trend, like just look at his hero costumes or casual clothes, he'd totally wear training clothes to competitions. (i personally like this trend. yes yes sparkly costumes, but this is a high level sport where athletes are essentially sprinting for 4 minutes straight, their clothes should be geared towards practicality and performance. now if only women's figure skating would do the same. and as the sport has continued to become even more physically rigorous with bigger and bigger jumps nows the time to embrace the next evolution of the sport).

Shouta !!! On ice ! (En/Fr)

In English

The shy little Shouta, 5 yo, see figure skating at TV and asks if he can do that instead of that boring baseball.

Granny-Aizawa takes him to his lesson every week, then to his ballet class, as the coach recommended. This coach sees a great potential in him.

Shouta loves to dance, what he hates is dancing in front of too many people. He has a terrible case of stage fright, it plummets his prestations during contests and shows.

With time, the pressure to get a good ranking spoils skating and dancing for him. He quits and focus studying and the UA exam.

After Oboro's death, he need to let off steam. He goes back to the skating rink as the crack of dawn so he can be alone on the ice. He discover how he loves to skate again, and he keeps practicing regularly, without any pressure.

Obviously, Hizashi is very happy to have a dance partner, even if Shouta prefers to dance at home or within their small friend group.

Shouta takes Eri to the skating rink, and teaches her the basics. Hizashi is uneasy on skates, but he films every session with his phone.

Eri watches Shouta skate with stars in her eyes, and wants to take lessons. Hizashi is more than happy for the opportunity to be a wholesome dancemom, pick her outfits and cheer. Shouta makes very clear with the coach that Eri is here to have fun, and not to make her cry.

Meanwhile, other heroes think Aizawa owns his mobility and core strenght to the practice of muay thai.

En Français

Le timide petit Shouta, 5 ans, voit du patinage artistique à la télé, et demande s'il peut faire ça plutôt que le baseball ennuyeux.

Mamie-Aizawa l'emmène chaque semaine à son cours, puis aussi au cours de danse classique, comme recommandé par le coach qui lui trouve du potentiel.

Shouta adore danser, ce qu'il n'aime pas, c'est avoir un trop grand public... Il souffre d'un trac terrible qui sabote ses performances en compétition.

Au bout d'un moment, la pression pour obtenir un bon classement lui gâche le goût du patin et de la danse. Il abandonne pour se concentrer sur son entrée à UA.

Après la mort d'Oboro, il a besoin d'un moyen de se défouler. Il se rend à la patinoire dès l'ouverture au petit matin pour être seul ou presque. Il re-découvre la joie de patiner, et continue de pratiquer régulièrement, sans se mettre la pression.

Naturellement, Hizashi adore qu'on l'emmène danser... Mais Shouta préfère que ce soit à la maison, ou parmi leur petit cercle d'amis.

Shouta emmène Eri à la patinoire et lui enseigne les bases. Hizashi n'est pas très à l'aise sur des patins, mais il documente ces sessions avec son portable.

Eri admire Shouta qui patine avec des étoiles dans les yeux, elle veut apprendre aussi. Hizashi est très heureux de cette opportunité d'accompagner Eri et choisir ses tenues. Shouta a une conversation ferme avec l'entraineur sur le fait qu'Eri est là pour s'amuser, et de ne pas la faire pleurer.

Pendant ce temps, les autres héros pensent qu'Aizawa doit sa mobilité et son corps gainé à la pratique de la boxe thaï.

I have a strange hc that bakugo can... Tap dance

His mom signed him up for tap dancing when he was very young (like when he was 6-ish?) and he kept on doing it until he dropped out of it at age 10. Maybe he forgot a couple of tricks, but I feel like he has the basics down and can remember how to tap to certain types of songs he remembers rehearsing to

But you'd have to have a gun to his head to see him tap dance though 😭 but that's why his mom has vhs tapes 😼

This is making me 💀 bc I remember finding tap dance shoes in my closet as a kid and being lectured for making fun of them b/c "tap dance is really hard!!!!!!!!" (which I don't doubt, but as a kid I was just like: 🙄🙄🙄).

I can see this very clearly though, mostly because I truly believe Bakugo's parent's enrolling him in every single extracurricular they possibly can when he's younger. Poor baby Bakugo takes drumming lessons, dance classes, and probably even does some kind of sport every year until UA... and tap is just one of those things he gets thrust into for the "cultural wealth..."

It's kinda funny because you're right, he absolutely won't tap dance for you, but he also probably won't admit to actually hating the class because it did teach him a bunch of useful things about movement and footwork........... same with all the ballet and hiphop he took after too, maybe ages 10-13.

(I'm not sure how or why this would ever happen, but if he ever hears one of the songs he did a recital to, maybe on the radio, he probably starts tapping a foot or shaking his butt along just due to muscle memory. You catch him in the kitchen once when this happens, absentmindedly doing the routine with one foot as he chops vegetables... and while it's adorable, the second he notices you, he's getting embarrassed and pretending he has no idea what just happened.)

So yeah, call up mama Mitsuki for all her pictures of him, like:

(she probably still even has the outfits somewhere)

Bakugou Headcanon #1

We’ve seen Bakugou pull off some crazy moves while fighting, but Horikoshi never mentioned that Bakugou had training classes before UA. So how did he reach that sort of combat ability before starting high school?

I think calisthenics make up a big part of Bakugou’s workout routine. Don’t get me wrong, he still does weight training (since he has to brace for explosions coming out of his palms), but mobility combined with strength is his focus.

He also did ballet and gymnastics when he was younger to help with balance and control. I can imagine Little Bakugou watching heroes hopping around and doing crazy stunt while fighting villains, so he runs to his mom and begs her to sign up for classes.

Doing all of this not only improves his combat abilities, but leaves him being super flexible.

We have already seen some of this in Bakugou’s canon fights.

It would be funny for the class to be stretching before sparring and Bakugou just folds himself in half and sticks a leg over his head. Or him just dropping into an upside down split.

Siim. Eu consigo imaginar um UA no qual Camus e Natassia são os pais do Hyoga. Imagina o Camus como um professor universitário e a Natassia como uma ex-bailarina do Bolshoi. Imagina um Hyoga adolescente ficando sem jeito quando algumas pessoas dizem que os pais deles são atraentes? Imagina o Hyoga e mãe treinando ballet juntos. Imagina os três patinando no gelo juntos.

Eu amo 😋 mas pra mim o bailarino é o Camus numa missão em disfarce e a Nat uma camareira do balé 😂. Ai, o potencial de drama com pitadas históricas 🤌❤️
