BnHA Chapter 328: Pandora’s Box of Discourse

Previously on BnHA: DEKU TOOK A BATH.

Today on BnHA:

youtube

Also Naomasa grew a beard. Goddamn.

please let this be a cool chapter that plays nice with my ADHD lol

(ETA: lol I feel guilty because a lot of people hated this chapter, but I’m just happy there was a lot of stuff to make fun of, and also that I have another week to work on my backlog of meta posts since the kids were MIA.)

around one month ago?? ah, okay, so we’re gonna find out what was in that Tartarus security file huh

I love that they just randomly set the place on fire

was it necessary to do this in order to escape? no. was it a good idea to set the island they were occupying on fire while they were in the midst of still occupying it? uh. was it cinematic as fuck? fuck yeah

wow it’s a pervert!!

that’s so great that the villains set loose this fine fellow who I’m sure is definitely not a serial rapist. truly the LoV is so noble and misunderstood. they’re just trying to free society from its chains people

oh my god??!

SHANKED!!! oh my god I cheered for Stain before I realized what I was doing. time to have an identity crisis I guess

so he’s all “hey what’s going on.” which, while a respectable question, is something I personally would have waited to ask until I had put a bit of distance between myself and the fiery murder island. but that’s just my personal preference

Stain you really are tenacious I’ll give you that

“what’s the point of escaping prison if you’re not gonna be smart about it” well shit. anyways yeah you’re dead right, society is in the process of collapsing and the outside world is in total chaos, good call there

oh shit

I mean it’s not like we really expecting anything otherwise, but still. fucking brutal. I feel like these guys’ fates were decided the minute that one guy called AFO “scum” back in chapter 94. AFO is unmatched at getting long-term revenge

ahh, was it the security footage??

fdsdfk he’s still alive??

and he’s immediately launching into an inappropriately theatrical monologue even as the darkness closes in on him fdlfksjdlk. you know, was it ever confirmed that the other guy back in chapter 297 was Seiji’s dad? I’m just saying

very impressed that he’s still coherent enough to weigh the pros and cons before making the decision to gamble on giving this info to Stain, who at the very least has his own moral code and isn’t allied with AFO. it was definitely still a risk, but as we now know it was also the right call

what a weird alliance. so Stain tells him that he’ll give it to a just person, and the guy is all,

okay for real though I’m gonna need someone to run a DNA test on this guy. maybe it was some kind of cuckold situation?? the other guy had the family resemblance, but this guy absolutely 100% raised Shishikura Seiji and you are not going to convince me otherwise

anyway, so Stain is all,

PRISON GUARD: “???? ??????? what the hell. what the fuck does that fucking mean. I’m dying here, jesus christ, whatever man fuck you”

(ETA: I kind of feel like this might have been Stain’s last appearance in the manga, given all the fanfare. there’s not really much else he can do for the story at this point, and he seems to have gotten all the character development Horikoshi was planning on giving him. so if this really is it, hasta la vista and good riddance I guess.)

DWLFDKSLDK MEANWHILE, OUTSIDE

(ETA: I feel like this is meant to be evocative of that Sermon on the Mount painting, but in a really fucked up way lol.)

if it were me stumbling upon this scene I would just shake my head and walk right back into the flaming building. not getting involved in that mess. sorry not sorry. I’ll take my chances with the fire, especially given that it’s half-assed neutered BnHA fire lol

blah blah blah and so he decided to pass the info on to All Might -- HOT DAMN, HOLY SHIT

NAOMASA HOLY SHIT. THE APOCALYPSE LOOKS GOOD ON YOU, BOY

“I really like that facial scruff thing Aizawa’s got going on, I think I’m gonna get in on that” yes sir. “also thinking of ditching the tie in favor of the bulletproof vest look. also thinking of getting totally fucking jacked.” good lord. except I’m pretty sure that’s just body armor, but also I don’t care. anyway I should probably stop staring and actually read the fucking speech bubbles here lol

“All Might first handed this information over to Nao, and then went to see Deku, and then came back to Nao” thanks for that tidy little summary Horikoshi. we are capable of piecing events together in sequential order, I just want you to know that. but thank you

“so has Deku finally gotten a bath? also, sucks that Stain saved the day, but what are you gonna do” Nao I missed you so fucking much and didn’t even realize. how am I just now realizing that you are the perfect man

for a second I was gonna ask why Tartarus’s security systems would be cut off from the outside world, and then I remembered that’s a basic security control, and then I actually got impressed by how sensible that is. like, it’s been a while since I could genuinely say that the good guys (excluding class 1-A) did something smart. not that it helped them much in the end, but still

anyway so they’re talking about how AFO was able to coordinate the attack by communicating between his horcrux self on the outside and his ugly peanut-faced self on the inside

huh

okay you have my attention. I am taking notes here lol please continue

ah okay so he says that prior to Jakku, the transfer of information between him and his Vestige self was only one-way. but post-Jakku when Deku was in the hospital, he was able to tell what was happening inside the OFA Radical Lisa Frank Dead People Book Club Realm when he touched him. I feel like we established that before, actually. but he didn’t talk about how it actually felt, though

boy we already know this lol. yes AFO can talk with his horcrux self. and he can also communicate with his little bro in OFA too, let’s talk about that sometime why don’t we. what exactly does that imply, based on the rules we’ve established here

my god I cannot get over Naomasa and his fucking facial hair

no wonder All Might was in such a hurry to leave Deku and get back here

like I have no idea what this radio waves nonsense is but my god, people

that jawline. also so it’s a quirk, I see. except last I checked Deku didn’t have a radio waves quirk, so that doesn’t really explain his connection to AFO. but whatever, hopefully we’re at least getting closer to some kind of reveal here

(ETA: since I sometimes forget that other people’s lives don’t revolve around my theory posts, here are the two relevant links if you by chance want to know my thoughts about this.

Hagakure is still The U.A. Traitor™ regardless of whether Deku is passing information on to AFO through his psychic link, which he almost certainly is.

speaking of said psychic link, Deku is a horcrux.

just posting these now, because whenever trippy OFA stuff happens I tend to get an influx of theory asks. so hopefully this will be a bit of a time saver lol.)

-- wait, what

THAT’S what the recording was??!? holy SHIT. I genuinely was not expecting that. y’all wiretapped his fucking telepathy. fucking quirks, man. wild

AND THEY USED THAT POWER TO DETERMINE WHAT WE ALREADY KNEW, HUZZAH. GOOD SHOW

-- oh shit wait lol, except I forgot we’re not talking about 38 days from the present, we’re talking about 38 days from the date the conversation was recorded. heh. um

yeah that’s the face I would make too if All Fucking Might just casually told me we had eight days left until the end times

oh, pardon me. three fucking days

r.i.p. anyone who thought we were going to have another band arc sob. I sure hope Deku is enjoying that nap

(ETA: I realize people were hoping for a longer rest period here, but given that the man warned us all the way back in chapter 306 that we were entering the final act, you can’t really blame him too much when that turns out to be true. anyway but I do recognize that we’ve reached the point in the story where this kind of discourse is going to become a weekly occurrence, simply because there’s no possible way for Horikoshi’s actual endgame to line up perfectly with the variable headcanons of millions of fans, all of whom have wildly differing and in many cases contradictory expectations which can’t possibly all be fulfilled. anyway, so I’m already bracing myself for that lol. this coming year is going to be a wild ride.)

damn, U.A. out here looking like the motherfucking United Nations

-- is this U.A.?? I actually just realized, U.A. is four interconnected buildings, not two. wait holy shit is this Shiketsu?

wait holy SHIT

based on the overwhelmingly powerful vibes of bureaucratic incompetence, I’m thinking this really is the (future) U.N., or whatever organization it is that deals with international hero stuff

“just let them handle it themselves I’m sure they’ll be fine” yeah okay, thanks guys. appreciate it

wait oh shit did he say that it’s not just Japan?

soooo, what you’re telling me is that AFO is this close to bringing about the end of not just Japan, but the entire world, and you guys don’t think it’s a good idea to help the Japanese heroes stop him? so, genuine follow-up question: are you guys already planning your rich people exodus into space a la Wall-E, and that’s why you don’t give a fuck?? like, what??

omg international heroes

these guys are from World Hoodie Mission, right? is this Horikoshi’s way of reminding me to buy tickets

(ETA: and it worked too lol.)

WHO??? WHAT???

don’t tell me you’re introducing yet another badass new female character for me to fall in love with only to watch as you dismember them and/or blow them up, Horikoshi. I’m getting tired of playing this game my dude. don’t lie and tell me this time will be different. we’re not doing this again goddammit

noooooooooooooooooooo

god fucking dammit lmao. [sighs and rips the previous paragraph into shreds]

on behalf of Americans I apologize for our superheroes always being Like This

I also apologize because I love her already and I’m gonna be shameless about it. so fucking shameless you guys

is her fucking hair red white and blue. it is, isn’t it

this is the volume cliffhanger, 100% lol. it will take every ounce of Horikoshi’s willpower not to put her on the volume cover. he’ll have to settle for the spine or the inner cover this time because Deku VS his class 1-a superpals takes precedence. but it will be a close thing let me tell you

tbh it’s that smile that does it for me. she’s definitely All Might’s protege. get out there and show them how it’s done girl. and maybe call Salaam and BRD and see if you can’t convince them to play hooky from their governments as well. why not. world’s ending in three days you guys. “sorry, I’m busy this weekend” ain’t gonna cut it lol

so while I am not fully caught up with Vigilantes, I have read far enough to know that there’s an American hero named Captain Celebrity whose superpower from what I recall is being a humongous douchebag. and while I haven’t read far enough to know what happens to this guy, I can’t say I’m very disappointed to learn that he’s no longer the number one hero in the U.S. (actually, didn’t they kick him out and that’s why he moved to Japan to begin with?). anyway, so my thanks to Horikoshi for having a marginally higher opinion of Americans than Furuhashi, even though we have definitely not done anything to warrant said opinion lately, and you may have inadvertently opened the door to a pandora’s box of discourse lmao

(ETA: lol I went into the tags and they don’t disappoint. “why is she dressed like a flag” because she’s an homage to Captain America and Major Victory and literally every other character on this list. again, I apologize for fictional American superheroes being Like This. “oh boy another thicc waifu to make the fanboys happy” look, tumblr fandom never seems to have a problem thirsting over Dabi or Tomura or Aizawa or Nao, lol, I’m just saying. “where is Captain Celebrity” idk, probably murdered by the exploding bee cartel, let’s just be grateful for our good fortune and try not to Beetlejuice the man.)

anyway, so let’s see if Horikoshi’s recent character development with regards to making Mineta not terrible anymore will apply to other aspects of his writing as well. I know I was making light of discourse just now, but I do think the complaints about him introducing yet another new character at the 11th hour to be cannon fodder in the final battle are absolutely valid. and again, it wouldn’t be a problem if he didn’t keep maiming/killing off his female characters one by one instead of developing them and letting them kick ass long-term. but that said, I will never complain about Horikoshi adding another female character to the series, regardless of how clumsy the attempt may be. go ahead and pander away, just give us more girl power lol

anyway so we’ll see how it goes, but I think I’m gonna be optimistic and let myself hope once again, even though I’m probably gonna regret it lol. it is what it is. she is standing on an airplane just chilling for fuck’s sake. I’m only human. anyway fingers crossed

Tis i 🐱 anon I’ve been Mia for a bit lol. But I had the idea of Dabi with an assassin reader that was either 1) recruited into LOV or (2) was sent to kill Dabi but fell in love etc. whenever you can pls ily thank you ❤️

From Cindy: 🐱 anon! I love you ♥♥ And I missed seeing you in my inbox. I’m sorry it took me a bit to get to this request. I’ve been busy due to the holidays. My sister stayed at my house for a few days and we watched the entire first three seasons of Haikuu. lol Now she’s obsessed too *evil laughter* Anyway, I really hope you like how this came out. It might take a turn you don’t expect.

Bullseye (Dabi x Assassin!Reader)

The name of the extraordinary ability you had been born with was documented on the government’s official quirk registry list as “true aim.” It was a simple, yet accurate title for the power which allowed you to hit any target with pinpoint accuracy. No matter what, you never missed the spot you were aiming for as long as you had a clear path. The only drawback was that you had to be within twenty feet of the target. Anything further than that began to lose detail and required something greater than perfect 20/20 vision.

When your quirk had first manifested, you’d been pretty excited to think of all the creative ways and situations in which such a power could be used, even though the adults around you were quick to point out that most of your ideas would be considered illegal by the suffocating and suppressive laws enforced in your country. Such restricting rules had instantly rubbed you the wrong way, and that slight irritation had grown into full blown resentment by the time you’d graduated high school with the reputation of being a trouble maker. Your teachers and other authority figures never seemed to appreciate the way you dared to question the way things were, or that you constantly tested your boundaries by trying to get away with using your quirk in any given situation.

Your refusal to conform to rules made it difficult to get into a college or even hold a job. You even ended up getting banned from several bars and sports centers for having an unfair advantage against other people playing darts or other precision games. The discrimination drove you to look for the freedom and acceptance you craved in less respectable parts of your city. It was in some back alley pub where you’d met a crooked broker named Giran. He sympathized with your situation right away and convinced you that if people were going to villainize you no matter how you used your quirk, you might as well live up to the exaggerated and often times false accusations made against you.

The partnership began with small crimes, but grew more serious as time went by. However, it had still been quite a shock the first time Giran asked you to take care of a hit that had been put on some random scum bag who’d done some bad business with a different random scum bag. Your hesitation waned after seeing the reward money and you accepted the job. The power of your quirk in combination with the black market weapons you’d received from Giran made completing the task a piece of cake. You got a thrill from the easy money, and decided you’d take more jobs like that from then on. Reports of your assassinations spread until you’d earned the nick name “Bullseye” by the press. By the time Giran offered introduce you to a member of the League of Villains, you’d already made it onto the country’s most wanted list.

“Well, if it isn’t the infamous ‘Bullseye” everyone’s been talking about.” The moment your eyes landed on Dabi, you began questioning Giran’s judgement for the very first time since you’d met him. You didn’t like making assumptions about people based on appearance, but there was something about the fire villain’s presence that put you on edge right from the get-go.

“A pleasure to make your acquaintance,” you nod politely. “You must be Dabi.”

The recruitment process was a little tedious. Dabi asked a lot of personal questions about your goals and motivations which seemed weird coming from a guy who left piles of burnt corpses around the city. It wasn’t the questions themselves that gave you pause though, it was the taunting little comments he made at your answers, and the lazy smirks he gave you every now and then. There was something about the intense look in his half lidded blue eyes that got under your skin as well. It was like he was trying to rile you up. But even though you weren’t a diehard follower of Stain or anything like that, your skills as a killer allowed you to pass the interview, earning you a spot in the League of Villains.

The weird feelings you had about Dabi only increased as you spent more time with him on missions and at the hideout. The way his eyes lingered on you always gave you chills, and certain things he said lingered in your mind until you couldn’t focus on anything else. You tried your best to ignore him, but sometimes you lost your patience and ended up bickering with him about the stupidest things.

“Can you try to control your fire please?” You’d tell him irritably. “I can’t do my job if I can’t see where I’m aiming.”

“Sure thing, doll.” His answer just irked you more due to the mocking undertones in his voice.

“And do you really have to monologue for your victims every single time?” you snap. “You’re such a drama queen!”

“Oh, would you rather I focus all my attention on you?” the playful glint in his eyes does weird things to your heartrate and all your pent up feelings finally come to a boil. Keeping a cool head was important for you, especially as an assassin, but Dabi had gotten on your last nerve.

“I swear I’m going to actually murder you!” you say through clenched teeth. “Every time I look at your face I feel sick to my stomach. Your eyes and smirk invade my thoughts and drive me to distraction! You’re annoying comments make me feel like I’m actually on fire, and I really just want to punch you in the face.”

Dabi’s blue eyes go wide and he stays silent for a moment as your words sink in. Then, slowly, he’d make an expression you’d never seen grace his face before… an actual genuine smile.

“Wow,” he says while shaking his head. “Do you even hear yourself? You’re even more emotionally constipated than I am.”

“What do you mean by that?” you ask and the way his gaze softens threatens to trigger your fight or flight response.

“Do you want to punch me?” He asks seriously, “Or do you want to kiss me?”

“What?” of course the mere suggestion sounds ludicrous for a moment, but suddenly your thoughts shift and everything clicks into place. His eyes and smirk didn’t give you a stomachache, it gave you butterflies. And your reaction to his teasing comments wasn’t real rage at all, you were just flustered. All the pieces meshed together and formed a conclusion in your head. “I have a crush on you.”

“Oh?” He was surprised that you’d make such a bold statement after misreading your own feelings for so long.

“And yeah,” you say with a weird amount of resolution, “I think I do want to kiss you.”

A victorious look blooms in Dabi’s eyes and that obnoxious smirk spreads across his face. He opens his arms and beckons you to come towards him. “Well, come on then doll,” he coos. “Don’t keep me waiting.” You let out a sigh and narrow your eyes at him.

“But I think I’m still going to punch you first.”

end of act two — the idealogical war: who won the bnha war and why? (aka everyone’s in pain but who is in more pain — me. liking the heroes and the villains is a tough life. also shouto — can someone please give that boy a proper hug, NOT YOU DABI)

so it looks like the war arc is finally beginning to wrap up and while a lot could still happen, let’s take a quick moment on reflect on what’s happened and try and figure out who is winning this war because uh, both sides have taken some pretty major hits.

going into this war arc, in general, things were looking pretty bad for the heroes from a technical standpoint. structurally, it feels like we’d hit the point that many stories hit — where the hero loses.

you can find this happening in most stories, where at some point the villain comes out on top and things get bad before they get better. it makes the story a bit more interesting because normally it gives us a chance to see heroes at their lowest of low points. give us a sense of who they are when the going really gets tough and how they’ll react or respond to it.

and it seemed that this war arc would be moment where the villains came out on top. so a lot of us bnha readers were expecting the worst: bracing for death flags, expecting to see some major casualties from the good guys, or watching the heroes be forced underground as villains take over japan. we braced for the worst.

however at this point, things are kind of balanced. both the heroes and villains have suffered casualties. while crust is the highest profile confirmed hero death we’ve gotten, many other heroes are currently MIA or their statuses unknown (in addition to some grave injuries in bakugou, deku, hawks, miriko, aizawa and endeavour — all of whom at this point are pretty certain to survive but also very injured). the villains have lost twice, ujirou has been captured and things aren’t looking great for machia. plus compress is injured and escape routes are becoming limited (although admittedly very few heroes are left standing to stop them at this point).

so it seems like a bit of a toss up: so does this war come down to whether or not the LOV escapes?

well physically maybe, but i want to take the chance to talk about the main war going on — the idealogical one.

because quite frankly, that’s the one that matters moving forward.

yes, while the worst might’ve happened and things are looking grim for the villains, i feel pretty confident in saying that the villains have won this fight.

in most stories when the villains “win”, its normally accompanied by victory in some sort of physical fight. but bnha seems like it might be resembling the flip side to that: the heroes “win” the fight, but at what cost?

because the villains didn’t need to win this fight physically to come out victorious. their goal is to destabilize hero society, to make the public doubt the heroes that protect them, to punish and tear down the corrupt hero system that put them all in the positions they were left in.

that’s what this fight was really, symbolically about. while it manifested in brawls between heroes and villains, fundamentally it was about the villain ideology vs hero society.

even if they heroes manage to capture shiggy, dabi, compress, spinner and machia. even if the heroes win that fight, dabi’s video and the sheer destruction and civilian casualties of this “war” might very well lead to the villains winning out.

the flaws in hero society has never been more prominent than they are now, with the number one’s son being revealed as part of the villain organization that has just caused mass destruction that the heroes failed to prevent, lead there by a childhood of abuse.

the heroes failed to protect the public and with dabi’s video, it seems like they fail to protect their own even. however this plays out, there’s no denying that the villains biggest hit wasn’t on any hero individually, but rather on hero society.

and the heroes have no space any more for an “I AM HERE” moment from anyone, i think the chances of them doing equal damage to the villain’s ideology is slim to none.

and it’s going to be very interesting to see the fallout for all this. the heroes are going to be forced to try and minimize damage, the discussion of what to publicly say about endeavour (which is a whole other conversation that i started to talk about here), and figure how to win back the public support. and that’s going to be hard, and maybe even impossible.

the heroes might still win the fight, but i doubt they’ll win the war here. image and public opinions are one of the most important part of heroics: bnha has brought it up time and time again with best jeanist, the hero rankings, mount lady’s lesson at ua. and now that’s in ruins. with the worst side of heroes now upfront and visible for the public to see, hero society could very well be on the verge of collapse.

just what the villains wanted.

(okay look i promise i’ll be back on my todoroki tangents real soon if that’s what you’re here for. its just a lot to process and i’m too busy crying about shouto to form any sort of coherent thought -- yes dabi it is no fun only pain for him and IM SAD. anyway, once those thoughts have any sort of coherency i’ll be todoroki tangenting away)

bnha + tdmm gundam AU

This is an AU I wrote on the todomomo discord server eons ago. Anything posted to this blog will be transcripts of old original work and not really edited, save for formatting. I have no guarantees if I will ever finish these AUs either so these will only be kept as an archive.

Heavily inspired by Gundam SEED/Destiny

Original transcript posted to tdmm discord: Aug 2018

BNHA MECHA/MILITARY/GUNDAM AU??? FT. TDMM + OTHERS.

JUST HEAR ME OUT OK:

idk when this is set but some sci-fi au where earth is at war w some enemy people and the military uses mechs

U.A. aka United Alliance is the military organization in charge of Earth's mechs

decades ago for idk.. WW III or something, pilots enlisted in U.A. piloting giant mechs (aka H.E.R.O.S. - “high efficiency robotic operating systems”) became protectors of citizens?? some shit like that.

the top pilots made a name for themselves were namely Toshinori Yagi piloting the TPHR-ALL MIGHT at #1 and #2 Todoroki Enji piloting the FLHR-ENDEAVOR

(Bonus: TPHR for "The People's HERO" and FLHR for, you guessed it, "Flame HERO" woooo)

but during the final mecha fight that subsequently ended WW III, Toshinori Yagi was declared MIA bc his mech crash landed on some coastal shore and by the time they found ALL MIGHT, the cockpit was empty and the pilot was gone

anyway fast forward >> U.A. has a cadet school and low and behold who do we find enrolled,,, aspiring young pilots Midoriya Izuku and Bakugou Katsuki

they both heard the heroic stories of pilot Toshinori and ALL MIGHT and woooo got into U.A.

also in U.A. ofc is Todoroki Shouto whos been groomed to be a mecha pilot since age 5 courtesy of Enji. D u h. (Enji's still piloting ENDEAVOR at this time but has it pretty set that Shouto will inherit piloting his mech)

aaand ofc we get the rest of class 1A in U.A. cadet school for various reasons

ANYWAY im not going into cadet school days bc thats boring but lets say ofc top of the class pilots are Izuku Bakugou and Todoroki that aces all the flight simulations blah blah blah

Also Toshinori was found to be declared MIA to the public but actually whoop. He's at U.A. as one of the boardmembers bc ofc that’s how im making the story work. Idk he was too injured and has too much ptsd that he cant pilot anymore and is looking for the next pilot to inherit ALL MIGHT (which is fixed up by now)

NOW INTO THE ACTUAL MEAT OF THE STORY - NEW WAR (WW4? I GUESS)

CADET KIDS ARE NO LONGER CADETS. THEYRE FULL FLEDGED PILOTS NOW AND ARE THROWN INTO THE NEXT WAR BC THAT WAS PART OF WHAT THEY SIGNED UP FOR. Whos the enemy? LoV ofc but i dont have a cool name for them yet LMAOOOO

K SO new war. New battle cruisers. New mechs yayayya

U.A. has 2 new battle cruisers: Sirius A and Sirius B, designated (1-A and 1-B DUH)and duh, the crew of 1-A and 1-B is gonna be classes respectively

1-A, Aizawa is captain of the ship LMAOOOO Momo's the crew's battle analyst on comms + nav, Iida takes the helm, idk whos gonna be on weaponry yet but I kinda wanna make it Tokoyami

Izuku Bakugou and Todoroki are mecha pilots ofc

they have custom made mechs that were made for them for mostly training so the models are pretty basic compared to ALL MIGHT and ENDEAVOR but eh they do the job.

I'm doing the hero name thing again so Izuku pilots OAHR-DEKU, Todo pilots HCHR-SHOUTO and Bakugou pilots.... EXHR-K.E.KILL

bc they’re custom they got to name the mechs so friggin Bakugou. I tried LMAO (if someone can guess the acronyms, bonus points)

also hey! they have a squadron of fighter jet pilots and hey! Its the Bakusquad!!!

each of the fighters have their own names too so you guessed it, their hero namessss ha..ha..ha..ha..

OKAY more people: Hatsume Mei's their engineer. She basically built the mechs and works under Powerloader that built the cruiser ships

Gran Torino built the fighter jets lol

uhh Tsuyu's probably the crew's nurse in the infirmary or smth. Chiyo is the head military doctor back at the U.A. base??? idk

Nedzu head of U.A. Self explanatory.

Fuyumi and Natsuo are there too!!! Fuyumi's part of the cadet teaching staff. Natsuo's a fighter pilot of another fleet

Anyway, TODOMOMO IN THIS AU

they met in cadet training. Momo was working towards being an analyst anyway so naturally they paired up for training exercises as comm + pilot top of the class. Aizawa's first choices when choosing who to enlist in for the 1-A crew

every time Shouto deploys for a fight Momo's hypervigilant in keeping tabs on him in the air bc honestly the worst is seeing a laserbeam aiming for his mech's cockpit

I mean she keeps tabs on Deku and Bakugou too but. y’know she has a bias loool

and god forbid if anything were to happen to Shouto bc the worse would be for him to be MIA or KIA bc this is a war. People lose their lives. She knows its what they signed up for but if she can help him avoid it, she will

but sometimes it cant be helped. Especially since she’s navigating for the other pilots and the ship

it doesn’t help that Shouto's kinda reckless in his mech fights when they get too intense. sometimes he'll ignore his comms all together and when he does that half the time he comes out of his cockpit injured bc nuclear explosions. Recoil. Life threatening occupational hazard. D u h

Momo's basically crying by his bedside in the infirmary every time that happens

and THE ONE INSTANCE WHERE HE IS OFFICIALLY DECLARED MIA, Momo loses it

bc its his fight against the enemy mech CRHR-DABI. Its in the midst of the enemy's unexpected assault. and the 1A and 1B are taking heavy fire. So she has to focus on Aizawa's orders. and Shouto is getting out range that she cant keep tabs on him. and he's ignoring her comms. so by the end of it, by the time the enemy ships and mechs retreat, HCHR-SHOUTO is g o n e

the dust clears up. Its raining. The fighting's stopped. All of the enemy forces has retreated so U.A. calls their pilots to retreat

2 of their 3 mechs have returned to the ship except for SHOUTO. And Momo's frantically trying to get through to him. But nothing.

Aizawa orders her to stop trying. they'll send out a search team to investigate his last known location after everyone rests. Repairs to 1A and the mechs need to be made. They have to make haste, but for now, rest.

all the logistical post-battle crap is cared for first. Status reports, repair agenda, the next battle plan. The search team is sent out.

nothing.

they keep looking.

nothing for days.

keep looking.

they find it. HCHR-SHOUTO in a lake torn to shambles. The cockpit cut open. Blood stains trail out toward the forest it crashed in but no pilot nearby. (Bc hell ya im gonna recycle tropes loool)

Todoroki Shouto declared missing in action.

Momo gets the update and she’s devastated

but theres no time to mourn. A second enemy attack.

the Orion fleet is called in. ENDEAVOR's fleet.

and there he is. that mech. CRHR-DABI. again.

DABI VS ENDEAVOR wooooooooooooo

but this time its nearby the city. Civilians need to be evacuated. WGHR-HAWKS assists in protecting the city as much as possible.

but yup ENDEAVOR gets destroyed too. Enji comes out of his cockpit in critical condition. and the enemy retreats again.

more aftermath. More repairing, more strategies, more recovering the injured. Its a war after all.

U.A. works on building a new mech. ENDEAVOR #2. But Enji has to officially retire from piloting due to his head injury.

and his successor is missing.

there is no pilot.

that is until Shouto shows up again!!!!

he has new scar on the left side of his face.

he saw ENDEAVOR's fight.

he’s alive. He’s come back. And he's out to take down DABI.and you bet he made his dramatic reappearance like:

Aizawa, at a battle meeting with Momo, Nedzu, Toshinori and other UA officials: "Tell me Nedzu. what choices do we have? Enji is compromised. His successor is missing. We're out of pilots. Who’s going to pilot the second ENDEAVOR?"

Todo, walking casually through the door: "I will."

After thoughts:

hi yes pls imagine all the pilots in skin tight pilot suits and helmets bc HAHAHHAA NGL THAT WAS THE 5% MOTIVATION OF ME COMING UP WITH THIS AU 👀

also momo in a military uniform 👀

the mechs look like their hero uniforms. OAHR-DEKU is green & white in colour. EXHR-K.E.KILL is black & orange. HCHR-SHOUTO is red blue silver.

TPHR-ALL MIGHT is gold & royal blue. FLHR-ENDEAVOR is blue red and orange.

CRHR-DABI is grey and purple and is piloted by Touya who else would it be

the fleet that i said Natsuo was a part of is the Orion fleet.. Enji's fleet

now that I think about it, Aoyama is probably the designer behind the pilot suits

Shouto names the 2nd ENDEAVOR mech HCHR-REI after his mom

his mom is a civilian and is very much alive kthx Im not pulling some EVA shit here ok

> bonus tdmm mecha NSFW

> archives masterpost

#todomomo #todoroki shouto #momo yaoyorozu #ruiyukis unfinished aus #IDK man just take it #this was from when i finished vld s7 and gave me mecha au vibes #things that wouldnt leave me alone

Shadowed Hearts and Winter Souls (Three)

Welcome back to the story! This chapter gets a little dicey so buckle up. Also, slight TW for vague mentions of Natalia’s past abuse at the hands of her ex husband.

(Also, as always, I use Google translate for the Russian phrases, apologies to anyone who actually speaks the language and has to deal with me butchering it!)

MASTERLIST HERE

********************

Tony and Natalia took the time to stroll arm in arm through Kiev after a lovely dinner along the river, Natalia pointing out several historic buildings, Tony’s eyes wide as he tried to take it all in. “I can’t believe you’ve never been away from home.” Natalia stopped to admire a hat in a shop as they passed, discreetly checking over her shoulder for the two men that had followed them from the restaurant. “There is so much of the world to see and Italy is so small! How could you be content to stay there?” “I’ve never really wanted to be far from home.” Tony shrugged, picking up a scarf in a beautiful shade of blue. “My work is there, my family, and the man I lov--” he cleared his throat and changed the subject. “What do you think of this color?” “I think the red rather than the blue.” Natalia decided, picking up one from another display and holding it up to the light. “There are bits of gold in this one that would make your eyes look lovely.” “If you insist.” Tony smiled down at her, pleased and happy and Natalia’s stomach twisted unpleasantly. He has no idea what is coming. “Should I buy you one as well? I didn’t buy you anything for the wedding and regardless of our arrangement, a bride always deserves a present.” “Nonsense.” Natalia laughed up at him. “No, you won’t buy me anything! I have a hundred scarves at home and this one will just be added to the pile sitting at the bottom of my closet!” “I’d like to buy you something anyway.” Tony decided. “You married a nobleman, you know. I’m sure you have your wealth but I certainly have mine and I should use it for something, shouldn’t I?” “You’re happy tonight.” She noted. “Or at least drunk?”

“I am a little drunk.” he admitted and she laughed again. “But I am also happy to be here.”

Tony dug some coins out to pay for his scarf and slung it around his neck as they kept walking. “I thought I was making a mistake for most of the journey here, but now that we’ve arrived--” he shrugged and motioned around the city square. “-it’s lovely and new and I am finally feeling as if I’ll really escape everything back home. It’s a relief, if I’m being honest. I feel as if I can finally breathe.”

“Oh.” Two men crossed the street in their direction, and Natalia felt panic clawing at her throat, mentally cursing herself for refusing to let Rumlow escort them around the city. “I’m pleased to hear it. We are still a days ride still from my home but if you wanted, we could leave tonight.” She tried to hustle him down the street. “We would be there by lunch tomorrow and be settled in and--”

“Stoy!” one of the men called then. “Ne dvigaysya!” “What did he say?” Tony started to ask, but Natalia shook her head. “No no darling, just keep moving. Let’s go, I’m freezing cold and we need to find our rooms for the night.” She froze when another pair of men rounded the corner just ahead, effectively boxing them in. “Natalia?” Tony asked quietly. “What’s going on?” “Please.” she muttered, taking his hand and holding tight. “Please just follow my lead, and I’ll explain everything later, alright?” “Natalia?”

“Please!” she hissed, and then turned a charming smile towards the men. “Dobryy vecher, gentlemen. Is there something myself and my husband can do for you?” “Your husband?” One of the men, a big brute with a scar across the left side of his face, leaned in to peer a little closer at Tony. “Got mixed up with the Black Widow, did you? Poor sap.” “Black Widow?” Tony repeated and Natalia shook her head, murmuring, “Don’t listen to him, Antonio.” “You don’t who your new wife is?” Another asked, lighting up a cigarette and blowing a plume of smoke in their direction. “She didn’t tell you she is wanted for questioning regarding the death of her last husband?” “Or that her Da was executed as a traitor and that she herself is under suspicion of treason of the highest sort?” a third joined in and Natalia pressed at Tony’s arm when he went very still beside her. “Or were you too distracted by her bounty--” the man leered in Natalia’s direction. “-- to ask anything like that?” “You’re coming with us, Lady Romanova.” The fourth man finally spoke up, flashing an official looking badge as he stepped forward. “Your recent trip out of the country is highly suspicious, as is you returning with an apparent husband. Mr--” he paused, waiting for Tony to give his name, but Tony didn’t answer. “--whoever this unwitting fool is that you have conned into some sort of charade is free to go. Lady Romanova you are to accompany us, we have questions to ask and you have answers to give.” “Oh please.” Natalia finally found her voice again, tossing her hair over her shoulder and laughing out loud. “You’d drag a woman away on her honeymoon because of some tired old rumours? Careful boys, keep bothering me and you’ll come across as jealous.” “None of us are jealous of a man who falls prey to a poison woman.” The officer retorted. “You are free to leave, sir. Consider yourself having avoided a calamity and go on your way.” “You are being frightfully rude.” Tony finally spoke up and Natalia blinked in surprise at how exaggeratedly thick his accent suddenly was, the way he held her closer. “I’ve come to your country with mia moglie, my wife and you will detain us with lies and accusations? Do you have any idea who I am?” “I do not care who--” “My name is Lord Antonio Carbonell Stark, nobile dei marchesi di Brescia and I have come to see my new wife’s holdings before deciding to stay in your sordid--” Tony made a show of kicking muck off his shoe. “--little city. You will not be detaining my wife without myself and my counsel being present, and you certainly will not be asking her questions about her first marriage. I know all I need to know about her previous life.”

Tony tucked a strand of hair behind Natalia’s ear in a surprisingly tender gesture and smiled down at her. “And I am confident that everything you suggest of her is lies. My own dolcezza could never keep secrets from me, I know her far too well, don’t I?” “Of course you do, husband.” Natalia crooned in response, her heart in her throat when she saw the furious glitter in Tony’s dark eyes. “What secrets could I possibly be keeping from you?” “You will have to forgive us for being wary.” The captain said flatly. “Your wife is under suspicion for many crimes, the least of which is the murder of her late husband. You would do well to watch your back with this one.” “I have no inclination to forgive you for such ridiculous accusations.” Tony announced, turning on his heel and flaring out his coat to force the officers back a few steps. “And you would do well to leave us be.” “Mr. Stark--” “You will address me as Lord Carbonell Stark, or you will not address me at all.” The men had nothing to say to that, and Tony nodded as if that had been the reaction he’d expected. “Come along, il mio amore.” The arm he put around Natalia’s waist wasn’t so much comforting as it was demanding and Natasha knew she didn’t have much a choice in the matter. “Let’s go to our room and forget about this inconvenience.” “Keep your husband close by, Black Widow!” one of the officers called as they hurried away. “We will have our answers whether you give them willingly or not!” Tony didn’t look back and neither did Natalia, and neither of them spoke until they made it to the waiting hotel where Tony was all smiles and charm and every inch the proper Italian nobleman as they received their keys. Once up the curving stairs and through the door of their private rooms however, everything changed. Natalia barely had a moment to catch her breath before Tony was kicking the door shut with a bang, grabbing her by the forearms and pinning her to the wall.

“You lied to me.” He grit out, eyes blazing in anger. “You lied! Never in any of our conversations did you mention you murdered your husband, never did you say you were under suspicions of treason! What mess have you dragged me into? I didn’t agree to any of this!”

“Darling, you can’t possibly think to run away with a Russian heiress in the middle of the night and not run into some intrigue.” Natalia said loftily, and when Tony’s hands only tightened on her arms, she warned, “You’re hurting me. I’m only going to give you one chance to let me go.”

“I’m hurting you?” Tony snapped. “I’m hurting you? Madame I can assure you I will do far more than that unless you start telling me the goddamn truth right this--”

Too distracted by his anger, Tony didn’t notice Natalia hooking a tiny foot behind his leg and he didn’t even have time to shout before she had taken him to the floor with a neatly executed trip, his head cracking on the hardwood and leaving him stunned.

More important than the instant headache was the knife suddenly at his throat, Natalia having snatched the blade from her bodice, her skirts about her knees as she straddled him with the tip of her knife held to his jugular.

“I told you I’d give you one chance to let me go.” Natalia was breathing hard, her hair in disarray and cheeks flushed. “Please don’t make this any worse than it already is.”

“Because you’d hate to have the blood of another husband on your hands?” Tony mocked and then grimaced when the knife point dug a little sharper into his skin. “Are you both a murderess and a spy? Your father was executed for treason, tell me wife are you planning to follow in his footsteps? I’m sure he’d be proud.”

“My father?” Natalia hissed. “My father was a traitor with no love for his home land and he used me to smuggle letters in and out of the country because no one looked twice at a curly haired little girl going on trips with her Da. And when I was old enough to be of some other use--”

Commotion down the stairs, the thump of soldiers boots and general shouting and fear flickered through Natalia’s eyes, her voice hushed as she hurried to continue-- “When I was old enough to be of real use to him, he sold me off as a bride to his worst enemy, telling me that it was my duty to spy on the man that was to be my husband and report back to him. I was practically a child Antonio, still wanting to put ribbons in my hair and only having given up my dolls a summer past and he gave me away, sold me for the sake of his cause.”

Tony blanched and Natalia whispered, “I won’t tell you the things my husband enjoyed doing to his child bride, but I can tell you that when the end came, it was either his life or mine and after what he’d done to me for almost ten years, I have him a far more merciful death than he deserved.”

"But the soldiers don’t care about the bruises or the breaks or the pain--” Natalia’s eyes darted to the door as the footsteps got closer. “--they only care that a nobleman was murdered and that I know secrets enough to ruin lives and for that they will stop at nearly nothing to stop me. I am vulnerable here, more so than I am at home so they will try to take me.”

Someone pounded at the door, shouting orders in Russian and Natalia threw the knife to the other side of the room, fisting both hands in Tony's shirt and pleading, “You have the power to save me or condemn me right now, Antonio. I will explain as much as I can if given the chance, but if you let them take me away I will not survive to see another sunrise, whether my death comes at their hands or my own. I did not choose this life and yet I cannot escape it, would you see me punished for that?”

Tony didn’t say anything, didn’t have time to say anything as a battering ram was applied to the door and it started to break at the first blow.

Instead he flipped them over so Natalia was beneath him, put both hands at the top of her bodice and when she nodded quickly, he ripped the material right in half so when the soldiers came rushing through the door--

--they found a man and his wife locked in a passionate embrace on the floor, moaning into a thorough messy kiss. Buttons were strewn about, shoes kicked off, coats thrown haphazardly on the floor as if the couple hadn’t been able to keep their hands off each other long enough to even make it to bed.

“Izvinite menya.” The captain cleared his throat. “But we were downstairs and received word that there was a domestic argument taking place in the room. Considering how the Black Widow’s previous marriage ended we thought it best to--“

“To stall my honeymoon for the second time in one night?” Tony cut in, and drew a pistol from the holster on his back, pointing it calmly at the captain without moving off of Natalia at all. “In my country, it is not uncommon to shoot a man for interrupting a lovers interlude. Tell me Captain, would you like it through the heart or through the head?”

“You are not going to threaten a member of the Russian--”

“I don’t give a god damn what you are a member of.” Tony stood to his feet then, pistol held steady, head tipped back and a cold smile playing about his lips. “You are nothing but a commoner, your entire life set to serve those above you and my dear man, I am far far above you.”

"I will have you name and your badge sir, as well as the name of your commanding officer. In the morning I will be charging you with a formal complaint, suggesting you are stripped of your duties and set out on your ass for being stupid enough to accost myself and my wife not once but twice on the same night, stopping us in the street to fling wild accusations, breaking down the door of my hotel room, insulting my wife yet again with that ridiculous nickname.”

The Captain started to stammer a reply and Tony slashed his hand through the air to silence him. “I may look the part of a dandy, sir but I can assure you I am not someone you will want as an enemy. Take your men and go or you will see first hand that I make no idle threats.” There was a tense moment where the Captain seemed like he might call Tony’s bluff, confident with five men at his back to simply storm in and carry Natalia away, but the sound of the pistol being cocked had him reconsidering and one by one the soldiers shuffled away down the hall, the last closing the nearly mangled door behind him as best he could.

Once they were alone Natalia went to check the door in the adjoining sitting room, and Tony moved heavy chair in front of it as well to further deter another unscheduled interruption. She tried the windows to see that they were securely locked and he moved their bags from the bedroom to the parlor, propping Natalia’s in front of the smaller couch, his own in front of the larger one.

The table in the bedroom was slid over to bar the damaged door, and while Tony was doing that, Natalia drew the curtains over the window, but lit a lamp and placed it in the wash basin so it would cast shadows and give the appearance of people in the room.

When all the preparations were finished, the room as secure as it would be for the time being, Natalia finally stopped in front of a mirror to take her hair down, shaking loose the pins and gathering them into her bag.

“Thank you.” she said quietly, tears threatening even the simple words, shaken to her core by how badly the night had almost gone. “That is as close to being taken as I’ve ever been and for the first time I didn’t have a plan to escape. That might have very well been my end if you hadn’t spoken up.”

Tony didn’t say answer, only undid his neckerchief and stuffed it into his bag along with his jacket. “They weren’t really soldiers.” She continued after a moment, watching him carefully through the mirror. “That is to say, not really Russian soldiers. All this land that Russia calls her own, they all have different armies and soldiers. The noblemen keep their own garrisons and run their own piece of the world and yes, my Da was executed for treason against Russia, but they are coming along to blame me for my first husband's death, and that is not at the order of the Tsar. I doubt he cares at all about this sort of thing.” Still no answer, and Natalia played at the edges of her torn bodice as she thought about what to say next. “They shouldn’t have known I was here.” she finally said. “Very few knew I was even leaving the country and I returned much sooner than I had anticipated. That means someone told the soldiers ahead of time and they were lying in wait for me. I would apologize for that, I hadn’t intended for you--” “-- to ever find out?” Tony interrupted. “Was that your plan? To get me to your home and hope I would never question a thing I saw? Do you think me to be so stupid?” “Lots of men simply ignore the things they wish they weren’t seeing.” Natalia stated simply. “I had assumed you would do the same.” She raised a curious eyebrow. “I hadn’t assumed you would be armed though, or brave enough to face down the soldiers like that.” “Not brave.” Tony said shortly, stretching out on the couch and closing his eyes, folding his arms tightly over his chest. “Angry.” “A far more destructive quality than bravery, to be sure.” Natalia seated herself on her own small sofa, her hand still shaking as she folded them in her lap. “I’m glad your anger led to my life being saved though I am sorry to be the reason for it.” “No you’re not.” Tony didn’t even twitch, nothing more than resignation in his voice. “You’re not sorry you made me angry and you’re not sorry you lied. You have everything you needed tonight-- a husband as a plausible cover story, safety from soldiers that would try to take you away, and I’d imagine some measure of time before they attempt something like this again. You’re not sorry at all.”

Natalia’s mouth opened to argue, then closed with the realization that he was entirely correct. “After I see you safely to your home, I will be returning to Italy.” Tony said then. “I’ve had enough of this farce. I thought a marriage to you would provide me with an escape from my own turmoil and perhaps the chance at an anonymous life but instead you’ve brought me right into the midst of your own troubles. I’d rather fight my battles on familiar ground, than fight a strangers war in a country that isn’t my home.” “I understand.” Natalia made sure her voice was carefully neutral, not giving away the guilt that was constricting her throat and settling like bile in her stomach. “For what it’s worth, I never thought you’d have to see or know all this, at least not for a long time. I thought maybe we’d have the winter before my less polite secrets came to light. I didn’t mean to put you in this position so soon.” “For what it’s worth? Your word is worth nothing, Lady Romanova.” Tony said coldly. “I thought I was trading one relationship set on lies for one set in convenience, and instead I find myself sharing a room with a woman whose mistruths might cost me my very life.” Tony rolled so his back was facing her, the words bitter as he muttered-- “Don’t know why I’m surprised, though. T’would seem I have a type, wouldn’t it?” ***************** In the morning, Tony was full of charm again, holding Natalia’s arm as they left the hotel, helping her up into the carriage and leaving a generous tip with the doorman, but it was all a show for the soldiers who lurked just down the street and watched every move they made. “Your coat, my love.” Tony held up the warm cape. “Wouldn’t want you to catch a chill, what a terrible end to our honeymoon that would be.” “Blagodaryu vas, husband.” Natalia smiled down at him and Tony smiled back, but his eyes were blank. “Are you joining me in the carriage or riding up front for a spell.” “Leaving my wife to travel alone?” Tony shook his head. “A gentleman would never.” The moment the door to the carriage was shut, the matched geldings merrily on their way, Tony turned to ask, “How long until the borders of Sokovia?” “We will be there by nightfall.” She answered immediately. “And I wired ahead to let them know we are coming. The rooms should be ready for us.” “Separate rooms.” Tony said flatly, and Natalia nodded. “Separate rooms.” “Very well then.” They rode in silence for hours, Tony staring ostensibly out the small window, Natalia staring down at her hands. There had been a few moments on the train when it had just been the two of them, a few moments where Natalia had found herself honestly laughing, her words less guarded than they ever were. Antonio was her husband in name only and there wasn’t anything close to romantic sparking between the pair, but she would wager a guess that this time with the Italian was the closest she’d come to having a friend in years, perhaps even ever and it hurt in some small, secret part of herself that she had ruined it so suddenly. Antonio might very well never forgive her, might drop her in Sokovia and turn and leave her behind and he’d have every right to do so, Natalia wouldn’t blame him. What a fool she’d been to so badly misjudge the pain in his dark eyes for weakness that night at the masquerade. Antonio Carbonell Stark was not a weak man-- broken hearted and angry but certainly not weak and Natalia could only pray that his anger wouldn’t lead him to turn her in to the soldiers anyway, that he wouldn’t further ruin things simply out of spite. And as the border to Sokovia grew nearer, she prayed with her whole heart that her brother wasn’t waiting at home. If James was as far gone as the rumours said he was, Antonio would be seen as a spy, an interloper, a threat-- --And then he might not live long enough to turn her in at all.

bonjour ladies gents nd flowers.. i’m gonna make this simple for u .. .. u got T̴̤̀̑́́̕W̷̱̝̲̯̊O̷̢͖̰̬͂̄͂͠͝O̸̺̬̟͈͒O̶̳̿̏̄̓͝O̵̥͍̣͕͠ ̸̛͖͔̥͍͍C̸͍͚̍̈́͂̓Ḫ̶̃̒̏O̴̘̥͋͝Ï̷͓C̸̹͋͝Ë̷̡̳̝̬̊̀͊̕Ś̴̹̯̰̿̎͌̕ , yes or Yes ! the name is yuno nd here’s my bitchass son nd local furry <<33 in All truth he’s actually lowkey an angel .. despite what the b*sm test says :^) u can find the Sexie, absolutely Gorgeous version of the intro in the INTRODUCTION , STATS and OUTLINE pages Plus his PINTEREST BOARD ─── below the cut is the lazy, ‘my brainstorming draft but Nicer’ version nd me going more in detail about wolfe nd his status nd contradictions between hating fame but loving the lux life xoxo

anyway . xan already gave u a rundown on what the kwons are like. awful but very influential parents that cared more abt fame than their kids’ mental health, ffffffilthy rich & filthy famous babey, think a la kardashians, they’re a v famous v important family, all eyes on them. stay tuned for the k family clans showdown bc the kwons r coming for blood ! if i were u,, i would root for the kwons. poc AND unproblematic ? the Funniest most lovely hilarious ( nd most gorgeous too aha ) siblings ?? they r the nation’s siblings tht’s all i gotta say .

first nd foremost ? he’s a dignified virgo . now moving on:

his parents were.... .. . not the best. they r obsessed w being a picture perfect family nd having every member of the family b extremely influential nd famous . nd they forced their ideals down wolfe nd nari’s throats since v v young , that shit ain’t good. to wolfe’s dismay , the power of his last name is bigger than his will to not be it

he was not born to be under Such fame if any at all nd it shows. he resents his parents, he HATES being handed things ( read: opportunities ! ) to him Because of his last name, nd he hates the media. too bad, bc the media LOOOOOOVES him nd always has. as said on his skeleton in the main, he’s the anti fame it boy babey ! one day he’s gna throw hands at some pap and i can’t wait to see it. now he has Forcefully gotten used to it but he doesn’t hate it any less. consistency !

spite had him graduating high school as one of the top students nd getting into a prestigious university by himself, love a spiteful hard working king ! he majored in dance bc he,,, loves it. it’s his life. it has been his escapism n coping mechanism since v little. nari nd him went to ballet tgt, too bad nari quit ://// he also has kept a diary where he pours all his frustrations, joys nd secrets into :(( he’s a bit m*niac abt it tho

he is,, ,, u guessed it right v Lost in life !!! there’s nothing he rly want to be . no aspirations . no goals . so he just pushes thru doing anything, thus he’s like . a dancer slash rising model slash rising actor . Awful. but above all he is a socialité whether he likes it or not so he better Sit Down nd suck it up . eat ur food wolfe. saddest part is,,, the golden boy tht could’ve been Everything ended up losing his wings

he is kinda at Fault in that ( being a socialité that is ) bc while he may hate the media nd all the overwhelming attention he grew up w,, he Loves being rich nd Loves all the glam tht comes w his fame. wolfe loves attending all kind of events. fashion, charity, premiere events. he loves the exclusive parties, the exclusive passes nd the exclusive, privileged life. he has hardly missed an important event unless it had to do w his parents, in which he tries Everything not to attend. so when ur already famous by default,, nd u attend public events like this .. no matter how much u hate the media nd avoid it as best as possible, u just turn urself into a socialité. in a way, his parents won :/// despite that Though he also lived a relatively normal life ? wasn’t homeschooled Ever ,, has his non famous friends.. went to university .. he has normal, average things to himself nd his life nd he Loves them

anw. not to b me but he is so . .. lovely. he’s a bitch to paps but he’s actually jst a sweetheart.. . . i lov him. nd ppl love him for a reason :/// he’s the feeling of falling in love, Hard, for the very first time i will never stop saying that bc it’s him tht’s wolfe core

what i had to say abt his personality in my drafts: awkward nd dorky, lowkey moody, sasuke emo vibe while being absolutely chaotic w the impulse to do Anything jenna marbles style. he has eaten tide pods tht’s all u need to know abt him

oh god his sister is like .. . so important to him. the most important thing to him. their bond is Truly to b jealous nd envious of. so if u hurt nari... . . ur gonna win an enemy urself xoxo gossip girl ! when they were kids as mentioned earlier went to ballet classes tgt, nari had him learn movies’ lines w her nd they recreated the scenes together,, mamma mia is Their thing . it’s why they hav come to love abba sm they r an abba family first humans second abba r their real parents there i said it. they always mess w each other nd have running gags like her trying 2 make everyone believe he’s a f*rry or him playing Humiliating music very loudly everytime he has 2 pick her up nd films it ( the tweet tht brought me to apply 4 wolfe and the playlist x ) nd a New contender.. posting embarrassing childhood nd Not so childhood pics of nari bc honestly ? public pick up humiliation only wasnt cutting it anymore :^) they also hav matching tattoos it’s madness luv u rly can’t touch one w/o getting on the other’s kill list !

and tht’s it.... lemme kno if u want to plot <<<333

#bratsintro #u kno what... . . i think the last para in the introduction page sums him up rly well . i snapped w tht one #also the last bullet point in the outline page !#me : this is the lazy version ! me : still writes a lot #this is the... Funny ... lighthearted version ! KJSGNK sry..#i kno i wrote all this but like. .. . read the pages 4 better nd more info. . .. KJNSFSKGNS #mess . Mess !
