*in a soft, broken whisper* but why not me?? why not me?? why couldnt it have been me instead? am i lacking something? was i not enough for you??? what did i do wrong?

Hey, everyone! Due to the sudden influx of viewers on AO3, the site has had to modify some things, including the experience of guest users and how hits are counted on the site. This is not the fault of AO3 (they're doing their best to keep things up and running for all of us), but if you're a guest user following stories on AO3, PLEASE make sure to leave kudos for your authors to see. We understand it can be difficult to get an account on AO3 (probably more now with COVID-19 leaving people in their homes), but sudden drops in statistics can be inexplicable and disheartening.

Keep your heads up, people. We're gonna get through this.

listen, when god made me he gave me the ability to stress about 10 different things at the same time but he did not give me the mental capacity to learn a math formula

so technically its not my fault if idk how to find the length of chord CD if AD is 4cm and PB is 16cm.

there is a strange horror i cant explain when seeing animal photos in the dark, late at night

imma go on a rant here

those bnha 'fans' who are disappointed and angry that bakugo apologized to deku is so fucking disgusting. and going as far as to say that they're completely dropping the manga and calling it a 'waste of their time and money'. i dont know if yall have eyes or if we watched or read the same thing, but id say that almost anyone could've predicted that an apology was coming from the last few chapters. horikoshi himself said bakugo needs to apologize. hell, we even see bakugo slowly coming to terms with the fact that the things he did in the past are wrong in the anime. in the manga, it is so much more evident reading the last few chapters. for example, when bakugo follows deku as hes charging toward shigaraki and when he takes a blow for him. i mean, did we really read the same book? even in the battle between class 1-a and b, we see him improving. how much more do yall need?

here is a character, a boy, who has been praised since the second he was born, been celebrated and showered with good words and compliments all his life for his quirk. let me remind you that he was a child. A CHILD. and who wouldn't believe the things we're told as a child? i would even go as far as to say he had the right to believe them, he did indeed have a powerful quirk and though not as refined as now, he certainly knew how to use it. as a bullying tactic or otherwise. bakugo was so confident that he was better than his peers, that he was going to become the number one hero. only for that dream of his to shatter when he reaches u.a and is confronted with, not only people like todoroki, whose quirk rivals his, but the kid who now has a quirk of his own and whom he told to take his life.

and let me remind you again, telling someone to take their own life is fucking disgusting and i dont condone these types of behaviors. and to hear the fact that a lot of you saw yourselves in bakugo and related to him when he was a bully, an asshole who constantly puts down others, has anger issues amongst other things just breaks my heart.

and another thing, horikoshi isn't 'changing his personality'. what he's doing is giving bakugo a character development which he desperately needs and which has been hinted at for as long as i can remember. horikoshi is plainly doing what every good author should be doing. i feel like screaming. bakugo wasn't a very likable character at first, in fact, im pretty sure everyone despised him. i hated him. and if the bullying wasn't enough, him telling deku to take a swan dive off the roof of the building was the last straw. idk how anyone can watch that scene and think, 'ah, someone just like me'. he was arrogant, and made me want to rip his hair off, and the fact that deku kept defending him just angered me more.

now though? bakugo has become my absolute favorite in bnha. yes, he bullied deku, and i dont view that as anything great. but thats a reason for his actions. not an excuse. piled on his shoulders is the pressure to be the best, to be the real deal, to be the hero to his sidekicks, who wouldn't be cracking with expectations like that? for a while now, i have been waiting for him to be the person he can be. watching him accept that deku is not as powerless as he used to be, that he cant just rely on people to congratulate him for waking up that day, keeping deku's secret, breaking down when he thought all might lost his powers because of him, realizing that if he keeps looking down on everyone else, he'll never be able to see his own weakness and passing on that message to other people. unlocking that potential inside of him and being a decent person. it is sooo satisfying, hes come a long way and im proud of him. and thats not even counting the things hes done in the manga. he deserves the development he's getting. HE DESERVES EVERY LAST BIT OF IT. he is a brilliant character who shows that redemption is possible. that human beings are capable of change if they themselves want to, if they desire to truly change themselves for the better. and that SOME people deserve second chances.

its going to sound cheesy but i dont care at this point: he gives hope. he may be loud and brash and uses harsh language, but he's maturing. he's looking at his mistakes, and bettering himself. something most people cant even fathom to do. and i applaud him for that. he deserves it.

and saying that horikoshi is invalidating you, the people who related to bakugo when he was selfish, arrogant and an overall bad person. and to that i say, as he should. people who tell someone to suicide is someone i can't consider as a human being.

and last but not least, i want to say that deku deserves the apology. that boy has been through so much of bakugo's shit.

i am honestly so done with this fandom. i hope this is the first and last time i rant about smt like this.

another hc: luna and mana always give makeovers to nahoya and souta whenever they comeover. and i mean ALWAYS. they will braid their hair, try to brush it, straighten it and one time even managed to force a wig upon their head. souya doesnt mind it but nahoya literally vibrates in his seat because he hates it when someone messes up his hair.

mitsuya obviously has fun with this. he will deliberately place certain objects on low surfaces so luna and mana can easily find them.

they use their mother's makeup set to put lipstick on their lips, orange and blue eyeshadows, fake lashes (nahoya is scared shitless of those things) and blush and whatever else!

luna gets nahoya because she can talk back to him.

"next up: eyelash curler!"

"oi, you're not putting that anywhere on my face!"

"it won't hurt, you big baby."

"im not a baby!"

"prove it ,then."

mana and souya are literally the cutest. they work together to bring glam to souya's face. souya suggests some colors and mana tries to find it and when she cant, souya gently guides her toward it. they will laugh and giggle and have the most fun while their siblings on the other side are struggling to put on a bit of powder (it gets all over nahoya's face).

i have found another relationship to appreciate

these two big bros

i love love love to imagine how these two started to interact cuz theyre the older brothers in their family and toman. draken, chifuyu, baji, and kazutora all have the "only child syndrome", mikey is the middle child mess, we dont know anything about mucho's life and i think practically everyone ignores him and sanzu. so among the mess they found themselves in, these two created a tight bond no one ever expected.

their contrasting nature works: mitsuya with his polite way of talking, respects everyone unless they give him a reason not to, and generally is a friendly nice guy while smiley has a rough way with his language, disregards anyone who is not worth his time and once you peel back the layers is just as amiable as his twin. yet they share that responsibility of being the big brother, of taking care of their younger sibling/s. they get each other.

i imagine the day the kawata twins were introduced, nahoya and mitsuya locked eyes and nodded cuz they have that "older sibling" vibe to them that only the other one gets. they just went "i feel u, bro" and left mikey and draken to wonder wtf is going on.

they can also telepathically communicate!!! whenever one of them is having a rough time, the other acknowledges it and tries to destress them. nahoya catches mitsuya struggling to be strong and offers him a handkerchief, tells him its okay to cry it out. one day, mitsuya happens to stumble upon one of the kawata twins arguments and gently intervenes, explaining to souya that his brother just wants him to be safe and telling nahoya that he doesnt have to raise his voice and could also explain things in a soft voice because souya is not a three year old anymore.

i also would like to imagine these two eat together and just talk about the hilarious stuff their siblings have done or advice each other on how to get them to sleep quicker or what to give them for their birthdays.

"luna tricked mana into letting her cut her hair yesterday."

"seriously? man, shes got -"

"nahoya."

"confidence. shes got the confidence that every girl should have."

mitsuya sighs. "gods know what mom wouldve done to me if she saw half of mana's hair gone."

they just get along with each other and its a mystery to others. their bond became so close that they swore to take care of each others siblings in case something happens to them.

naturally, them being close also meant souya and luna and mana see each other very often. they get together every once in a while and although souya is older than luna and mana, the three of them are a pact and already have inside jokes. oh and hakkai's there too.

listen, advice is a great album ... taemin is super talented and amazing and the songs are absolute bangers ... but 2021 was not done ... go listen to moon and back by bloo

shameless rant about tokrev!!!

i wish the female characters in tokrev got to display their fighting abilities more, it would rlly add some more depth to their characterization and i dont mean like they dont have backstories or anything

like some of these girls are real badasses

senju is said to be as powerful as mikey and yet we never see her fight properly??? what was the point??? several characters have commented on her strength, namely wakasa and benkei so then why is she being treated like a fragile little thing. maybe im missing smt but i genuinely dont get why wakasa would tell takemichi to take care of brahman's princess when he himself knows how much strength she possesses. also takemichi cant fight for shit hows he gonne take care of her?

emma is said to have been taught how to fight by her siblings. yet we never see her skills. its a different case if she deliberately chose not to involve herself with gang affairs but what about that battle in the parking lot?? she had the skills to protect herself. even if she does not alter the aftermath of the fight, we wouldve seen her being able to fling two attackers with her umbrella.

yuzuha is the most competent female character i feel like cuz we do actually get to see her fight but idk if its just my memory but i dont actually remember how the fight went. did she beat whoever she was fighting? also i would like to see her more. wish hakkai had invited her to the toman 2.0 so in that way we'd get to see more of her.

hina honestly has such wasted potential. i mean this girl went up to mikey - a person who can knock anyone with just one kick AND whos the leader of a gang - and slapped him in the early episodes! GIRLBOSS BEHAVIOR!!! and then she;s just ... there ... even her promise to protect Takemichi seems weak. i get that shes like the emotional support for takemichi but i wish we got to see her full on blasting guys. imagine ppl just underestimating her cuz shes short and fragile-looking and a GIRL. then she goes and knocks up everyone who charges at her, dislocating their jaw, breaking teeth, three punch to the chest, four to the sides and one special to the groin and she has five guys kneeling at her feet. i feel like she would also like to do some emotional damage while grabbing a guys arm and twisting it like 'damn, you must not be very strong if a mere 5 ft girl can just snap u like a twig'

i would also like to see a female gang like pls wakui-sensei make it happen plz

tokrev has little female characters as it is but to have the ones we do get to be just on the sidelines and only appearing when our mc needs a boost is wasted potential. we couldve had some rlly entertaining stuff like the toman members teaching the girls how to fight or the girls getting together for a trip when they get harassed and boom! the harassers are crying for their moms with blood running down their nose.

im hoping the battle between kantou and toman 2.0 will have senju bring out the monster in her. i wanna see the senju ppl compare to mikey. the one wakasa and benkei praised. the one who was the leader of a gang she formed herself, a gang which was infamous in tokyo and which was one of the three deities.

plz

have senju go wild

im begging here

tokyo revengers spoilers....

spoilers if you havent read the manga

is2g if you tell me that this entire shit happened just cuz hinata rejected kisaki's proposal
