it was never casual i fear
thinking about how katsuki’s dying breath was izuku’s name … history will call them roommates
All Might was literally suicidal and people dont talk about it enough.
How it must've felt to have to pass on the one source of his strength, for years that has kept him at the top, his sole source of not only livelihood but also his way of helping others? How he must've felt knowing that he could not be the pillar of peace as he had been for almost four decades, that he had to subject another young person to carry that weight. How he must've felt after Kamino, after losing that power for good, after the entire nation saw him at his weakest.
His talk with Aizawa about deciding to live for the next generation, absolutely broke my heart. He felt useless, in a way probably none of us could ever even grasp. Not even izuku could.
What does it mean to be the entire world's pillar in one moment, the strongest man alive, only to go powerless in the next? It's no wonder Toshinori considered ending his life after Kamino- He didn't even look the same. What other option would you have but to end it all there? When you go from the man everyone looks to for help, to a man who can't even take a punch and survive?
But the fact he chose to live speaks volumes of his strength. His willingness to carry on, and help his students and successor fight with whatever strength remained. He helped Izuku during his tenture as a vigilante, because All Might would've done the exact same thing. He packed those lunches. He chased after Izuku, trying to give him the same support he knew All Might would've needed if he was the same age as Izuku.
It's why he put on that suit and fought All For One, even if it meant stalling and not defeating.
Because All Might is beyond his quirk, the same way Izuku is. He has the heart of a true hero.
The reason Izuku probably managed to survive those eight years without an ability to fight alongside his class- was because All Might was likely there beside him, both of them sharing the loss of their power after being at the front of the field. And they both know the importance of sharing their strength, their true strength, with future generations.
It was the strength of their hearts that put All Might and Deku above the rest.
headcanon that gojo is actually a massive nerd. if he had to go to university, he would probably major in mathematics just for the fun of it.
he has to run so many mathematical calculations in his head on a moment’s notice just to use his technique. i imagine he geeks out over numbers and whatnot. i bet his passwords are like the answers to some freak equation that only true nerds could know. he’d probably say shit like “yeah my favorite equation is the cauchy-goursat theorem. it’s an important statement about line integrals. it can be used to show that every function that is analytic on a simply connected domain has an antiderivative on that domain. isn’t that insane? that’s insane lol.”
HELLO
happy Thursday the 20th
real talk on the laws in the mha universe:
i wonder what the law is on unlicensed quirk use in self-defense situations would be like? if a person was hypothetically using their quirk in a situation where they had to fight back to keep themselves safe, is there a legal code defending self-defense? or do they instantly fall under vigilante laws? what even are the laws of vigilantism? what legally constitutes vigilante action? i am SO intrigued on this hello. but also i bet quirks would make law school such a pain in the ass
What is this, a crossover episode?
can we get more arguing in stsg fics? i want them to yell at each other. like at the top of their lungs. i want to see them yell everything theyve ever kept hidden from each other right in each other’s faces. i need them to be so mad and devastated. please. thank you <3
SOMEONE WRITE THIS PLEASE I DONT HAVE THE TIME
Need a bkdk body swap fic but instead of doing freaky shit they have a competition on who can embarrass the other the most
"shipping" doesn't feel like the right term anymore. like im not looking at these two characters and thinking "outside of the canon they would make a good couple." or "i hope the author writes them to be together" shipping is shallow. shipping is taking two characters who have a potential, but dont really live up to it. shipping is just making shit up. that's jelsa. that’s shounen boys and their “love interests.” that's the entire disney princess catalogue pre-ariel. what im doing is im looking at WHAT THEY ALREADY ARE and thinking "woah. okay. incredible dynamic there. im gonna hyperfixate on it until i shrivel up and die" and if it happens their already existing dynamic has heavily romantic implications, then that has NOTHING to do with me and EVERYTHING to do with the canon🤷♀️
Hello, Tumblr. For all my years on the internet, I am very, very late to creating a tumblr account. So here. Here it is. I will use it, someday, somehow. But for now, a simple hello! How are you! What is eternity and what does it mean to you!?
can we acknowledge how insane izuku was? like he was literally insane. surely we realize that as a fandom, right? he’s insane-
oh. we don’t? oh okay let me just compile a list…
-GRABBED onto All Might’s leg in an attempt to have a single conversation with the man
-WITHOUT THOUGHT ran into a literal villain, and attempted to save HIS BULLY while having NO QUIRK or COMBAT experience
-Cleaned ALL OF DAGOBAH BEACH (a literal landfill) on his own without question
-Broke his bones the first time he used his quirk. Knows the pain of breaking bones. HAS NO PROBLEM WITH BREAKING THEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN
-breaks his bones just to fight Katsuki.
-jumps IN FRONT OF ALL MIGHT (a 15 year old boy trying to save the symbol of peace) to take a hit for him from shigaraki in the USJ
-Executes his plan with the mines during the sports festival, LAUNCHING HIMSELF USING EXPLOSIVES WITHOUT GUARANTEE OF SUCCESS (he literally could’ve died if he landed wrong)
-broke his ARMS JUST TO PROVE A POINT against shoto (nobody asked him to do that??? he just did??? never had to do that???)
-Uses the name associated with a very specific insult towards him specifically into his HERO NAME (Brave move. like who the heck does that)
Let’s not even begin to discuss how Izuku is in a constant HANDS OR NOTHING mindset. The amount of times he could’ve called in for a professional or a teacher for backup, but instead electing to dive headfirst into combat regardless if he thinks he’s gonna make it out alive or not. He has no problems running into the portal during the league of villains training camp raid if it means he can save Katsuki. He used OFA at 100% regardless of the intense pain he felt just because Eri was rewinding him. When he meets gentle, he doesn’t even try to call a teacher or text a friend. NOPE! He’ll fight the fucker himself. Nobody told him to go vigilante. He chose to go vigilante because he felt it was necessary to do handle shit on his own. Forget recuperating and figuring out strategy with the class. He’s gonna go fuck all and find Shigaraki himself.
Also, LET’S NOT EVEN BEGIN with when things involve Katsuki, Izuku is a MASSIVE CRASHOUT. His biggest character moments are him having to fight against his crashout tendencies. He isn’t even a self-destructive crashout. He’s a destroy absolutely everything around him crashout. HE IS A PROBLEM
Extenuating circumstances aside, his mindset is ABSOLUTELY not a common one for the average 15-year-old. Let alone the type of sunshine nervous cinnamonroll the fandom makes him out to be. He’s a nervous wreck, yes. He’s also very kind. But he is also literally insane.
It’s why I love him so much tbh
