#yesterday upon the stair by pitviperofdoom for bnha

[five-rivers]

Does your fandom have it?

You know what I'm talking about. That one divinely inspired fanfic that contains the holy trinity of good writing, length, and completeness.

(If it does, say the fandom and fic in the tags!)

Fanart for Chapter 14 of Yesterday Upon The Stair by @pitviperofdoom

honestly I haven't been into bnha since i first got into anime in like 2019 ish, but this fic might bring me back in...

[ghoulysaphomet]

Holo there

Name's Saphomet (He/it)

Most refer to me as Ghost, or something else. I am known by many names, truly.

I'm in my mid-20s and not suitable for minors.

This is my AO3/Writing/Fanart focused account. Here, I ramble about my WIPs, ideas, inspirations, ect. I also try to post fanart whenever I actually get around to draw.

My works tend to either be Angst, Crack or Smut. If you've come here from reading something by me, then this is probably not a surprise.

I love incorporating themes of death into my works, like ghosts, tragedy, grief, rebirth, cannibalism, ect. I also love monsters::)

I also like to share AU ideas (when I remember to do it) - if any of my ideas inspire you to create, go for it! If anyone does create from any of my ideas, then I'd love to see it!

Main account where i reblog whatever i want: @timstolejasonscorpseagain

Feel free to send me asks here or there!! I love getting asks (beware, I tend to ramble...)

I've written fanfic since 2012-3, can't remember for sure, and posted them to deviantart and ffnet. I moved to ao3 in 2014.

I have a lotta wips. Sorry 'bout that.

Terfs and bigots of any kind aren't welcome::) fuck off::)

If you've read any of my works and have any questions feel free to ask!

Wishing everyone a good day.

[chaoticattt]

Fanart of Yesterday Upon the Stair, by @pitviperofdoom :D I got bored and wanted to doodle something, so y’all get this. Yuts is definitely on my favourite bnha fics list, currently rereading it actually.

[impdidnothingwrong]

Yesterday Upon the Stair by PitViperOfDoom

Is a BNHA fic with no link to Worm at all but by khepri does it not have Taylor Hebert feels

"If your opponent has the upper hand, you break it"

[samglyph]

I think you’ve mentioned ao3 before. Do you have any favourites you’d like to share?

Hmmm I’m happy to share some of my favorites, but they’re kind of all over the place in terms of fandom. If anyone wants recs for specific fandoms feel free to ask but I don’t consider myself an expert on any specific one.

Completed fics that I’ve bookmarked because I like rereading them

Whiskey Old Fashioned Sour by @bluejayblueskies (Malevolent, separate bodies modern au, Jarthur, Aro Arthur) I experienced shrimp emotions while reading this fic it’s so sweet but also the tension is SO high. I’m not going to include summaries here because you can just click the link and read the blurb but truly malevolent fic of all time.

Something’s Wrong with Danny Fenton by perfectly_inconspicuous (Danny Phantom, no one knows au, horror vibes) listen to me. You don’t need to be that into Danny Phantom to read this fic it’s just good. It’s also pretty short but there’s some small bonus content after you finish it which is fun.

Ok this last one is a little embarrassing but honestly it’s been a comfort fic for me since I was in high school lol

Yesterday Upon the Stair by PitViperofDoom (BNHA, Deku has a quirk, Aro relationships abound) listen. Listen. I haven’t really cared about bnha since I was 17/18 but a good fic is a good fic and I fucking love ghosts ok. Also good characterization.

Ongoing fics that I’m currently enjoying

Call it Even by abbysue, okayanna (Miraculous Ladybug, enemies AND lovers au-Adrinette dating Ladynoir trying to kill each other it’s fun) ok so I don’t typically go looking for ml fanfic but I’ve followed @/anna-scribbles for a while who started posting this fic with additional art and I’m completely hooked.

Things That Bleed by artistfingers, kkachis, perfectly_inconspicuous (Danny Phantom scp au, crossover with Alex Rider) listen I don’t know who this little British kid is but I am really enjoying this one. Love me some unsettling Danny.

Something Greater 2 by busket (botw/totk, Link/OC) ok so in sharing this one I’m actually recommending you go back and read Something Greater (the first one), it’s another comfort fic for me, it’s about a yiga clan member who very accidentally falls in love with Link and defects from the clan so he can learn to be his own person (if you know me you can see why this is exactly my thing). The sequel has been pretty fun so far too! Also there’s a bunch of art on Busket’s blog relating to the fic and the characters so that’s fun.

[murderousewpecspredator]

So I'm like way way way late but I finally read @pitviperofdoom's Yesterday Upon The Stairs and I'm just. Blown away. I can see why this is the highest ranked fic in ao3 for bnha.

Anyway I decided to doodle Izuku's little big sister. Have some Reis. She is the bestest girl and deserves the whole world.

(Don't worry about the blood and menacing grin. She's a sweetheart, I promise.)

Here are a few of my treasured finds across the internet, in thanks of some of the stories you've recommended.

Thanks! It's been a long time since I've read fic outside of ao3 or tumblr tbh

[pockethep]

Can I ask your top 10 fav fics ever (from any fandom, if you don't mind)?

Also, just curious, is there a story behind your name "pockethep"?

I’ve had this Tumblr for a molten minute and originally it was a Pokemon themed blog before I deleted my side blogs (a choice I regret every day). The Pocket in my user came from “Pocket Monsters” and the HEP was just tagged on because a lot of pocket monster themes names weren't available but younger me wanted to be open to having a blog that wasn't just 1 thing.

Now for the fics…

These are in no order whatsoever. This is based purely on fanfics that I love that no matter what I keep going back to, there are honestly a lot I could put especially if I think harder but its late and I'm typing on my phone.

Yesterday Upon The Stair by PitViperOfDoom on AO3. (My Hero Academia)

Genuinely an amazing fanfic, probably the best BNHA fanfic I’ve ever read which is a strong title to hold. It even has its own TV Tropes Page. It was Published in 2016 and I read it religiously. It had it all, Queerplatonic relationships, Drama, Angst, heartwarming moments, and realistic character depictions. It’s one of those fanfics that most people in the fandom know as “One of the Big Ones”.

A Breach of Trust by Phantomrose96 on AO3 (Mob Psycho 100)

Another “One of the Big Ones” and another fanfic that I’ve been following since it was published way back in 2016 (a wonder how 2016 had a lot of really great fanfics just like how a lot of good writing came from the quarantine). This is such a good fanfic, that really expands past the base content of the manga/anime and has a well fleshed out world as well as characters. It’s a drama that has a good dose of angst and I love the way the relationship between Mob and Reigen develops.

Issho by ToastyToaster22 on AO3 (Mob Psycho 100)

Normally I’d try to keep it one to a fandom with these types of lists/asks but Issho was really good. Once again has the bonus of being a fanfic from one of my favorite anime/manga. But it highlights one of my favorite characters, Teru, in a way that develops him very well over the course of the series. Issho is just the first of ten parts and I'd recommend reading all of them.

Salvage by MuffinLance on AO3 (Avatar the Last Airbender)

One of my comfort ATLA fanfics. A great amount of humor, angst, and a lot of found family. I absolutely adore Hakodad pics and Zuko honestly deserves it but Salvage has the plus of adding more additional siblings and a cute isopuppy because Zuko really deserves it.

fool in the moon by arahir on Ao3 (Trigun)

Despite having read the Trimax manga and having seen the original Trigun anime, I didn’t actually start reading fan fiction for it until Trigun Stampede paraded through…And BOY was I missing out. Although fool in the moon is a recent addition to the roster of amazing pics, it’s up there as one of my favorite. It’s a vashwood fic with a healthy dose of angst and comfort. I don’t know what it is but Trigun writers all have the ability to write the most visceral things.

(HONORABLE MENTION: A Ship and his Anchor by DerringerMeryl who aced the Vash whump.)

Press 9 to delete this Message by moriturism on Ao3 (Jujutsu Kaisen)

One of the most cleverly written fics not just on this list but that I’ve read. I can’t recommend it enough, even to those that don’t ship satosugu. This is a hurt no comfort fic and the way my stomach sunk reading the date for one of the last messages is a feeling few people can replicate. It’s good all around. 11/10

Those Hands Were Meant To Love by Ahenix on Ao3 (Spy X Family)

I think this is one of the big fics for Spy X Family and for a reason. It’s fluff without plot, and I love a good bit of found family and fluff especially centered around my favorite “fake” family. I read this one a couple times last year because it’s cute and its only 6 chapters.

Cascading (In a good way) by Hubbleablubble on Ao3 (Genshin)

There are a lot of well written genshin fics but this one is my favorite both for the ship (Kaebedo) and that I enjoy the way the characters are written. I like how everyone was written in this. Although it’s only a chapter the pacing was great, especially as it told their story from strangers to friends to lovers. It also mentioned Khaenri’ah Royalty Kaeya which is a huge plus.

(HONORABLE MENTION Song of Resistance by TheOpticalMouse absolutely check this out, its a series of 2 fics)

Starstruck by shizuoh on Ao3 (Yuri on Ice)

All that needs to be said is that the author basically created the Actor Victor Nikiforov tag on ao3. It’s a fic that’s been there since around 2016 when the show debuted and it hasn’t left my favorites for a while alongside a lot of others. Featuring the aforementioned actor Viktor, a barista/babysitter yuuri, and Yuri as a child caught up between the two. There are a lot of great’s and this is one of them.

(HONORABLE MENTIONS: There are a lot of Yuri on Ice fics I could have put here so…Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart aches by Reiya (The Biggest Diamond among the rest of the diamonds), crust and sugar over by ShanaStoryteller, Where the Cliff Greets the Sea)

Academic Intrigue by kassvea on Ao3 (Word of Honor)

It’s a modern AU, college/university AU with well written characters that are true to the original source. It’s a story about starting over, especially given the scandal at the start of the fic. I love the connection between Zhou Zishu and Wen Kexing in all forms of media but this is one of my favorites.

(HONORABLE MENTION: Sanguine by jaemyun this is one of the big word of honor fics and for a reason.)

[windrunnered]

🍓🍄❄️!!

🍓 ⇢ how did you get into writing fanfiction? 

My god!!!! I actually looked to find the video that made me laugh so hard on youtube I started writing fanfiction about like, getting adopted by him, haha. I used to write “getting adopted by [one direction/youtuber/celebrity]” style self-inserts. I’d have every mental illness and they’d all cure me the second they started hanging out with me. This guy’s a piece of shit now, but it was a video like this one. I was like 11 and had just been given unrestricted internet access, it was a wonder it didn’t do more to my brain.

Other than that, I was usually writing other sorts of youtubers. I just found some really, REALLY old writing I can show you that I made when I was like, 11-13. The improvement is crazy.

🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings

Oh, man. This one’s totally fictitious but I love the idea that when Kaladin couldn’t get any tattoos for Bridge Four because he felt like such an outsider, Moash gave him a tattoo that said basically “mine” and that one stayed. You know that one, Nat, but the world needs to know that. 

Other than that, I love t4t transman4transman Dalinar/Kaladin, especially with Dalinar being like “I can’t believe you were failed this bad, I’ll get the ardentia to officially legally transition you + we’ll get you on T” and Kaladin is like ewww the ardentiaaaa no thanksss and keeps doing whatever tf he wants. He takes the testosterone though. Also totally fictitious, actually. I just be doing whatever I want, god bless.

❄️ ⇢ what's your dream theme/plot for a fic, and who would write it best?

I have always craved a nonlinear time fic. Like one that jumps back and forth between present day and past. I’m trying to write one like that and it’s really goddamn intimidating. I really love sleepy-skittles as an author and I think she’d kill it. I wanted to do a BNHA time loop au and I think pitviperofdoom would kill the idea. Both of them have fics that I love.

I love pitviperofdoom’s Yesterday Upon the Stair work (complete, teen, bnha) and sleepy-skittle’s we grew under a bad sun. (complete, explicit, trc) Both are phenomenal.

Send me a truth or dare.

[si-siwrites]

Some fanart of mika from @pitviperofdoom 's yesterday upon the stair!

Really happy with how the static ghostiness of Ms. Yamamoto's hand turned out.

[issalesnunes]

Can I ask your top 10 fav fics ever (from any fandom, if you don't mind)?

Also, just curious, is there a story behind your name "issalesnunes "?

About my name, there is nothing behind it. It's my first name (Isa) + my two last names (Sales and Nunes)

That's how I sign my drawings and I thought about using it on Tumblr too.

Hey! So, my top 10 might be slightly questionable since I really like BL and Crack Fics, but I can make a ranking.

The Enchanted Library, by Monochromatic

If you've read any of my previous lists, you'll know that I like MLP, despite not being exactly a fan of the couple in this Fanfic, I ended up hooked with line, bait and everything. For me this is a 10/10 story

Because i liked you better, by dreamer_of_dreams

I kind of watched the K-drama "Startup" and loved and hated it in equal amounts, but if there's one thing I fell in love with, it was the character Han Ji Pyeong. I couldn't accept his ending and ended up turning to Fanfic, and this fic is perfect. I always go back to it to read a specific part or just to read the whole thing again.

The Ghost of Heroes, by Enigmaris and ScarletNightFury

I kind of stumbled upon this Fanfic when it was still in its first 10 chapters, the Danny Phantom fandom was lukewarm and this story activated the desire in me and many others to start consuming DP content again

lex luthor's ascent from supervillainy to fatherhood, by halfagone (milkywxy)

At some point I started devouring DP Fanfic, but it's complicated for me to truly love it.

Hero Class Civil Warfare, by RogueDruid (Icarius51)

At some point between 2019 and 2020 I madly consumed BNHA Fanfic, mainly AU without any shipping as a focus and this was one of my biggest obsessions, I even created a playlist for this fic.

Yesterday Upon The Stair, by PitViperOfDoom

I especially like Fanfic, it combines two things that I love. The strangeness of death and the reinterpretation of canon events

Photos of the past, videos of the future, by Music_Feeds_My_Soul

This is one of my favorite crack fics, it has everything that makes me laugh.

Fire Walk with Me, by HibiscusTea9

I love Stardew Valley, and when I went to Ao3 looking for Fanfic about this game I didn't think I would find this masterpiece, it has the game's canon + super interesting couples + hatred for Mayor Lewis

Disassemble as Instructed by WyldOctober

This Fanfic can be controversial, a lot of people hate this ship, I'm not a fan myself but this story is so... incredible. Everything is well tied together and each chapter has a cover made by the author, you can feel the care that this Fanfic was made

he's a killer queen, sunflower, guillotine, by hoye

Did I mention that I like dubious crossovers? So... Harry Potter+Fullmetal Alchemist= a great and very unexpected story

I think that's it, I had to select my favorite Fanfics and I ended up leaving many out but it was cool to answer these questions

[ejt-draws]

“My friends are scarier than you.“

[ID: Digital fan-art of Midoriya Izuku and Rei from the fanfiction Yesterday Upon The Stair by @pitviperofdoom.]

[extratiredofyourcrap]

AU DUMP BBY!

I’ve been trying out a different style rn, so I thought I’d draw Izuku’s from some of my favorite Fics! These are just kinda how I see them in my head, sooooo ye. Ya’ll really need to check these out they’re to die for!

Here’s some info cause I’m bored,

Live a Hero by  BeyondTheClouds777 - I kinda went ham w/ the scars and doodles, I’m not mad thou, I think scars are really beautiful. He’s a traumatized bby, but he’s smiling on the inside I swear. OH FRIC I FORGOT TO COLOR HIS FRIENDSHIP BRACELET

The Scars We Carry by  Banana_Ink - Mm K so I might have added a scar but shhhh don’t tell anyone (¬‿¬) ANYHOW! This fan-fiction actually got me into bnha fics, the writing is so freaking amazing! If you check out their tumblr they have a crap ton of amazing art/comics! Psst this one is one of my favorites

Dis(associate) by  BeyondTheClouds777 - Here is another one from Cloud, what can I say, their writing is too good! Alas I’ve massacred the boy. Honestly thou, I messed up pretty bad on the face. I might have to redraw him later to make up for this.

Yesterday Upon the Stair by  PitViperOfDoom - Really this boi needs no introduction, I thought I would try to make him all spooky and stuffff. And yes I added little scars from the closet incident, sue me. ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ♪

Locked in Digital by  RogueDruid - This is a REALLY underrated fic. The basis is so interesting and I really feel bad for this Deku. I put him in his fathers jacket and gave him more of an androgynous face like it said in the fic. Idk if i succeeded but…

A Beacon in the Dark by  NohaIjiachi - I kind of feel like I was cheating since there is so much art already made by the creator of the fic, but like with The Scars we Carry I based it off of them and took a liberty here and there. Over all it’s an interesting fic and a fun draw!

Welp! That’s all for now! I’m considering showing my silly doodles/memes I make w/ my oc’s and different fics. Would y’all be interested in that?

[shototdoroki]

So, I know I’m late. But I just finished @pitviperofdoom ‘s AMAZING fanfic called Yesterday Upon The Stair... And I’m just speechless... It’s one of the best fanfics I’ve read. It’s SO GOOD. 

Sooo, I wanted to make some fanart of creepy Deku and his ghost firend Rei :)

Hope you like it!
