If your characters were a pantheon, what would each be god of?

OOOOO!!

Major - Death

The most powerful of all the gods. Devout followers scatter lycoris flowers every new years eve as a prayer for one year longer with their loved ones.

Nakedtoaster - Memory

The keeper of all known history. Those who follow them tend to be doctors or students -- they offer burnt written memories on a pyre when they seek blessings.

Jerri - War

In times of conflict, all seek her favor. She isn't particularly interested in selecting a victor, however -- she'd much prefer it if the war could rage on forever.

Nightowl - Beauty

Many adore him, and many fear him. His temples and ceremonies are the most beautiful of all the gods, but skip one week of worship, and you'll never escape his wrath.

Felix - Family

A humble god. He holds no temples and encourages no worship, but still families will find themselves humming folk songs about him on cold nights around a warm fire for comfort.

Xyx - Abyss

A strange, misunderstood god. His followers are scattered on the road as eternal wanderers. If you stop them and meet their eyes, the god himself will grin back at you.

Sungho - Sun

An explosive entity among the gods. His booming laugh is often mistaken for thunder on stormy days when he sits above the clouds. When the clouds part and he appears, all rejoice.

Quest - Moon

The silent brother of the sun. Nobody has heard him speak a word, and his followers cut their tongues out and take lifelong vows of silence. Many claim to have seen him standing on mountains alone.

For actual animal awareness, you should probably reblog the updated version of the whale poll that OP made. There's confirmation that they're not necessarily whales but still worth protecting with a link to a premiere orca research page.

Yep, you are right!

We looked into the post after we reblogged it and did take note about the orca being whales' situation (despite not correcting our tags, that's our bad). However, we did not know the OP added more information so thank you for letting us know!

I have a sudden, unsolicited opinion on the moment where Ochako admits that she fell in love with Izuku. Since it has been going around as one of those context-less, surface level articles on Google(I spotted it too)

So it's talking about the moment when Ochako is fighting Toga and she tells her that she fell in love with Izuku.

Does she use the exact wording? Yes.

Does that mean it's an end all declaration? Does it mean she is endgame with Izuku? I do not think so.

I don't think it's the final nail in the coffin to the argument for any other ship involving Izuku or Ochako. Here's why:

The admission is so anticlimactic.

We have known for a while that Ochako has complicated feelings about Izuku. We know that it has been a bit of a crush. And that has led to ANTICIPATION to see what becomes of those feelings.

But along the anticipation, we have also seen her going through some feelings of discomfort about the whole thing...unusual, for a supposed love interest of a Shonen manga!

So the audience has been waiting for a LONG time for something, anything, to happen between Ochako and Izuku that rewards that anticipation and that waffling on Ochakos part.

And for something like a supposed love confession, a line like "I fell in love with Izuku Midoriya", to heppen....

But NOT in a moment between Ochako and Izuku themselves, just also does not reward the anticipation that was built up.

She did not confirm and admit these feelings TO izuku. She admitted them to Himiko.

And that is the first time the audience hears her positively confirm that she had those feelings, blatantly.

But it TAKES AWAY from the actual relationship because Himiko received that confession...not Izuku.

We didn't get a charged confession between Ochako and Izuku. The relationship was STILL not mutually developed. It's still just a quality of Ochako, it says nothing about Izuku. The anticipation of Ochako having a crush, and changing, complicated feelings for Izuku and where that would eventually climax, where it would reach its peak for Ochako and Izuku both, instead is diverted. Kind of literally. Because it didn't happen at either chance they had to talk it out, to confess, she sent Izuku away when Himiko tried to trap him into a love discussion. She didnt bring it up before the war began even though they had such a calm moment to be able to do so. It didn't come out in the logical places. And now in the endgame, they have split up to fight different battles...Ochako has even exhausted everything she has right now to save Himiko and likely is out until we receive the wrap up.

So, the anticipation I mentioned, again, does not have a payout in the form of even a rushed battlefield confession because the two of them are fighting different battles.

Instead the audience is given the confirmation of "I fell in love with him" when he is not even present, when Ochako is not confessing to him or confronting him. It comes out with Toga, when she Is trying to reach out and level with her, it almost could read as a "I had a crush on the same boy" kind of statement. It comes out when saving Himiko is Ochakos main priority.

What I'm saying here is that Ochakos love confession for Izuku, which is usually a big deal in any story, is in the back seat to prioritize each of their other relationships and goals. Which is great that it is not forced upon us when there are bigger things happening, however it just does a disservice to the pairing itself when most of the feelings are expressed onesidedly, and an actual statement of love, if it's not even outdated because of changed feelings, means a lot less when it's not filling the gap between the two people in question. When the confession doesn't reach the other person.

(And I will go ahead and say that is kind of similar to how bkdk is right now as well, bc we have SO MUCH material on Katsukis side, about how he feels and how much he cares about Izuku, but not a lot on what Izuku feels or allows himself to feel about Katsuki. I will call that out as well.)

Like at this point, the best we could hope for, for Ochako and Izuku being a couple, is a very open note about it in the aftermath. Like maybe Ochako asks Izuku if he would like to get crepes with her. That's just enough given context clues to suggest to the audience that yes there are still some feelings there, she heard what he said about crepes and holding hands and took note of it, but also that Izuku himself is willing to explore those feelings as well. It would be Ochako finally choosing her feelings for Izuku, but without it being too sudden for Izuku to accept. This whole time we are not shown Izuku crushing on her at all it would be strange to have him suddenly initiate.

But anything more romantic and profound than that? Any dramatic reveal/confession of feelings, any chance for them to have a moment in the midst of war to have the "i love you" discussion? That has been bypassed time and time again. Horikoshi COULD HAVE WORKED IT IN, IF IT WERE A PRIORITY TO HAVE THEM ENDGAME. While no, romance doesn't have to be a priority in a Shonen, and Ochako has flipped the script on how she handles her feelings as a shonen love interest, Hori has demonstrated that threads and concepts of romance ARE part of his narrative.

And right now? Hot take, but the most romantic thread that Izuku, his main character, finds himself in, is whatever the hell is going on between him and Katsuki Bakugou.

You'd just think if the mc was going to be with a romantic partner, a girl, by the end of the story, something would have happened.

I feel like I'm going in circles past my point, but it boils down to Izuku not having any indication of interest in Ochako besides friendliness....the fact that the audience received confirmation of Ochako loving Izuku from her telling a 3rd party and NOT her subject, and the anticipation of that confession, built up for YEARS of this manga and animes run, of supposed feelings not really being paid off, if the two are meant to be the romantic end game. It also boils down to the fact that the anticipation of the confession had a CHANCE to occur with Izuku, the subject, multiple times. It boils down to again, ochako and Izukus relationship being romantic in anyway being little more than an after thought.

AND! it doesn't even guarantee that her feelings of love for him are still the same! We don't know for sure if she STILL loves Izuku!

So yeah. I hope this made sense, but it sure feels anticlimactic to have a love confession(supposedly) not even occur while the subject is present, where the audience can view it and celebrate that long awaited conclusion.

As always, these articles that pop up on Google leave a lot of context out, and are very face value. They saw Ochako say the L word and called it endgame. There is a reason I don't read them.

#bakudeku #bnha spoilers #bkdk #togachako #thoughts on romance in bnha #take with a grain of salt bc i could of course be wrong #but that is how it reads to me #honestly i would be satisfied with the scenario of ochako asking izuku on a little crepe date at the very end #bc it would still be believable #even if we dont know how izu feels #there is nothing that says he cant aay yes to a small casual date like that at the end pf their war #just dont call it a whirlwind romance cus its not #there also nothing wrong with izuku just not having a dtrong romantic interest in anyone #he has a lot going on it makes sense #just bc shonen USUALLY has this big romantic sideplot doesnt mean hori wont subvert it #he already has honestly #arguably tho he has got more romantic coded drama going on with Katsuki #BUT THATS JUST OPINION FROM A MULTISHIPPER WHO SPECIALIZES IN BKDK #anyway ochako is doing fantastic and i love her very much #ochako uraraka #at the end of the day horikoshis writing is pretty complex #he had already done Ochako a service by subverting the love interest character trope and having her focus on Himiko instead of Izuku

I like how scorch and brick seem to care more, if you know what i mean, about deaths and family. Especially scorch caring for firestar.

THANK YOU AAAH

I imagine BloodClan not so much as a ruthless gang of thugs, but as just a broken found family who support each other and think they're edgy and cool, lol.

I never go into what the actual relationships are between the main three, and I just don't have a simple answer? They truly love and deeply care for each other, and that's all that matters to them. I was actually a bit worried that this scene might convey Brick as being in love with Bone romantically. That's a perfectly good headcanon! But I like not having a clear answer with them.

Why is mini figure Mac half shirtless when he was so flustered over Swk helping him with his clothes. What happened to turn him into that loud creature we see now.

death changes people, i guess

#he was feeling a Mad Max style would be great post-revival #also less clothes = less timee to get dressed #AND WHO IS TO SAY THAT SWK ALWAYS FUSSED OVER MACKY’S CLOTHES #WHO IS TO AAY I AM WRONG #like imagine swk always fussing with his subjects clothes and even more with Macky because they’re super close #and while Macky might enjoy the attention he also feels some embarrassment like he’s being babied when done in public #especially when the fussing is in front of the Brotherhood #so once revived (Lego figurine) Macky is very pissed & on the revenge route so decided that a good mini fuck you to swk = less clothes #bc now no one can fuss over them being tied on wrong or something #lmk #lmk six eared macaque #but honestly the figurine is so funny to me #it looks like he’s wearing a fishnet body suit and like Macky are you trying to kill swk or seduce him which is it???? #it’s giving 80s cartoon villain vibes #asks #shadowpeach

Unpopular ask: orange🧡, blue💙, purple💜 pls!

🧡: What is a popular (serious) theory you disagree with?

The Jedi do not steal children. If you want to have a conversation about something real (if they are separated from their parents too young, if they created a cultural pressure that encourages parents to give up their kids) I will hear you out. I hate this theory so much I wrote a fic featuring a support network of parents who refused the Jedi. I had a mother tell a Jedi to their face that there are aunts and uncles who she only knows from baby pictures, that she had such a hard time getting pregnant she knew she couldn't go through with that with her daughter. But they couldn't avoid tragedy because after O66 because the Sith came to steal their kids. Because that's their favorite thing to do. They got caught multiple times in 4K doing just that.

💙: Which character is not as hot as everyone else seems to think?

You know what Aayla Secura never did it for me. I get it, you can see her midriff and she's attractive. But there's just so many other Twi'leks out there who have more interesting characterization in my eyes. Maybe I didn't read those Republic comics from 20 years ago, idk. I think she and Bly are cute together, tho.

💜: Which character is way hotter than everyone else seems to think?

Someone else asked me this so I'll answer both and tag you. I have a lot to say here. Starting with my love of characters in one or two episodes.

Cut Lawquane! Y'all are sleeping on him. I love a family man. He's not the stepfather he's the father that stepped up. He's so much of a wife guy that he dyed his hair pink so he looks more like his wife! Here's the real controversy, Cut has all the qualities that make y'all go wild for Hunter, but unlike Hunter he can keep his found family together and safe. And he's hot! He's rocking those lamb chops. Please more fan art of Cut and Suu.

For romance hour: what is each ROs (bp & aai) favorite everyday, mundane thing about their relationship with MC? Singing together in the car, washing dishes together after dinner, chilling on the couch together after work, etc

Thank you for all you do robo pal 🫡

nakedtoaster: brushing your teeth together in the morning on a lazy saturday. your hair is totally fucked, their hair is totally fucked, and yet you both smile in the mirror at each other.

quest: the feeling of your hand in his on a walk around the city. it can be on an errand, on a date, anything. it's grounding and warm.

xyx: sitting in silence and reading together. it's even better if you're leaning against him. connection without forcing anything at all -- real comfort.

nightowl: texting. he just likes being able to talk to you wherever he is. it reminds him of the bp server days, in a way. like, oop, there they are online again! makes him smile.

---------

major: doing the dishes together, side-by-side. it's a quiet team effort, filled with little jokes and jabs and pointless conversations. it's a time he feels like he can genuinely relax.

felix: sitting in waiting rooms with an arm over your shoulders. he can be quiet, think about work, and still get to be connected to you. a moment where time feels a little slower -- in a good way.

sungho: showing tiktoks to each other that only the two of you would love. building that sense of humor together makes him feel even more connected to you.

jerri: wearing each others' clothes. you're just both so comfortable with each other that you don't even comment on it anymore. it's very gay of you honestly.
