Read 'the Guy I Was Interested In Wasn't A Guy At All' And Now All I Can Think About Is An Au Where Fem!shigaraki

Just posted on ao3 for the first time!

for now it's just a one shot but i'll probably turn it into a full story if people like it (i have half of the plot already planned out lmao)

so if you're interested in todoroki brothers fluff and Touya being a protective sibling, here's the link:

a lesson never learned (only violence)

hope you enjoy!

“Can’t two guys just be friends?”

Yeah, just not these two guys.

allow me to answer my own ask bc i need to add my personal favorite

i love a dramatic bitch

favorite dabi moment? (doesn’t matter if it’s a serious or silly one)🙏

All of them, I love my man wife💕 buttt I am partial to these scenes

The first time we see him verbally express guilt🙏 my bbg u did nothing wrong. BUT ALSO HE LOOKS SOO PRETTY. He always looks better when he's being genuine.

☹️

Literally any of the scenes with his lil smiles oh my GOD MY BABYY

Really any part of his reveal, Dabi's dance is my fav episode throughout the whole series (butttttt when his fight with shoto is fully animated that might change)

Then also the couch scene. I don't have to add a pic, you KNOW what I'm talking about. I actually love any scene where he's crying cause like,, idk it's just such a break from his asshole persona. It's a meeting point between Dabi and Touya. ALSO UGH AFTER HIS REVEAL WHEN HE'S JUST,, HIMSELF??! The best ever tbh. I love how loud and obnoxious he gets, total opposite of how he was in the beginning.

The Problem with the League of Villains

this is just me ranting after reading many people say that the lov deserved a better ending (i agree with them don't worry). most of that stuff has already been said but i'm bored and need something to write

so why is everyone disappointed?

by definition, an antagonist is someone that goes against the main character(s) and a villain is someone who does immoral and/or illegal things (wow, shocking)

so by definition, the league of villains is aptly named. shigaraki and dabi are mass murderers, toga is a killer too, and even if the others are 'less dangerous' they're all guilty of terorism and kidnapping a teenager.

not nice, right? then why would anyone would want them to have a good ending?

long story short: horikoshi made the league too sympathetic and relatable

when horikoshi has decided to make them funny, he's decided to make them likeable. that's not enough though. you can find a fictional villain funny and not root for them (for some reason the examples that comes to my mind are the disney villains. captain hook is hilarious but no one wants him to win)

the cause of everyone's disappointment is the relatable part. everyone in the league has gone through stuff viewers can relate. touya, shigaraki and toga have been abused; twice has mental health issues (and stuggling to get a job is relatable too lmao); spinner has been discriminated against... you get the idea

and even without knowing their backstory, most of the league's fights can be considered noble: they want to change society and make the world a better place. to take a more precise example, the league kidnapped bakugou because they thought he had gone through similar struggle as them

(this is mr compress talking in chapter 85) as far as i've seen, most of the fandom either think bakugou being chained and muzzled at the end of the sport festival was just comic relief or agree that it was fucked up

so yeah, you can't put a group of people rejected by society, who just want a better world and expect people to not like them

and that's why their ending is disappointing (the rest contains heavy spoilers of the last few chapters of mha)

they're all either in jail or six feet underground. we rationally could understand it, they're all criminals/villains so of course they wouldn't get a happy ending and face consequences for their actions. the only one who could have gotten away with it is shigaraki because of all the grooming/brainwashing he's gone through and maybe toga because she's a child

but if you relate to a character, you want them to get a happy ending. of course fans would want dabi to be at peace, but instead he's forced to spend his last moments being stared at by his abuser). of course fans would want shigaraki to be free from afo (but instead his only freedom was death). of course fans would want toga to be understood and cared for (but she never had that opportunity)

that's not very 'save to win' out of you horikoshi

maybe it's just a shortcut made by the fandom, but the league are seen more as victims of abuse than actual criminals. i mean, what's more important in dabi's story? the fact that he burned himself alive after overworking himself to get his abusive father's attention, or the fact that he's burned people alive? probably both, but there's more focus on the first element.

and obviously we would want abuse victims to get a happy ending

basically, their ending isn't coherent with what we've seen of them, and that's why people are disappointed

btw, the same logic applies to stain. some fans agree with stain's reasoning bc he's fighting against corruption. of course, his logic is stupid and he's delusional but he's introduced not long after we've discovered shouto's past. you can't say "one of the most popular heroes is abusing + all he wants is to get n°1 to satisfy his own ego" and then follow with "see that guy fighting against corruption? he's bad, don't do that"

the clever way to make sure no one would agree with stain would have been to make the heroes fight against injustice with good methods. i live for the fanfics in which izuku takes down the hpsc

okay i'm done ranting thanks for reading

Bakugou makes the claim that he's a bigger All Might fan than Deku is, and this really pisses Deku off. He starts listing every single piece of merch he has, and sure, a lot of it Katsuki has as well, but he stopped collecting merch years ago while Izuku is still going strong! But the entire time Katsuki just sits there with an infuriating smirk, nodding along, the entire time claiming he's still the bigger fan.

Finally Izuku just throws up his hands and demands to know what makes him the bigger fan.

"I have a one of a kind piece of All Might merch no one else in the world has, worth a shit ton more than your crappy collection."

And Izuku's brain just starts trying to figure out what piece Katsuki could have, how much it's worth, where he got it -

Katsuki leans forward and gives him a long, hard kiss, shutting down his brain like always.

"I've got his heir."

A few seconds of stunned silence while his brain tries to reboot before

"KACCHAN!"

Hawks, responding to a call at 3am about an unknown figure running around rooftops in the area: Heyya kiddo! Shouldn't you be at home in bed?

Vigilante Izuku: wouldn't you like to know feather-boy.

silly tweets inspired by my villain shouto au [part 2]
