gets frustrated easily if you don't listen to him but gives you lots of praise when you do
bribes you with snacks and toys
has a lot of rules for you, mostly for safety but also things like "no swearing" "only [x] many snacks before lunch/dinner"
if you break any rules he'll tell you that if you do it again you're not allowed to have your favourite snack or toy. he's too soft on you to follow through though, he'll just complain and say the same thing again
usually when you regress he takes you to his relaxation room, but if he's too busy to leave the lab he'll set up a soft corner for you
he has legos and inventor toys in the lab for you to play with while he works so you feel included. he'll sometimes ask you to make something and pretend to use it then thank and compliment you
"kid" "kiddo" "little genius" "my favourite little inventor"
gives you lots of head pats
he definitely does not let you draw and color on the construction and graph paper, he has no idea why they're so short on paper lately (he absolutely lets you)
What are some alternative hero names and epithets that you would give to the Pro Heroes or UA Teachers?
For the sake of this, I am sticking to the UA Teachers, because that would be a lot of characters otherwise, and only epithets in general. Partly because I am fine with lot of the hero names and partly because we don't know a lot about the characters to build interesting hero names around. And for the ones we do know, like Aizawa, Nemuri, and Yamada, I'd rather make their own post focusing on them considering how much we do know about them. You are still more then welcome to ask about specific characters if you want alternatives.
Power Loader: The Construction Hero or the Ground Up Hero could be a good pick, working both his overall aesthetic, his support item focused style, and his tendency to dig into one name.
Ectoplasm: I believe that a better options would be something like Multi-Man or The Dividing Hero would fit him well enough. A good mix of his cloning power and his role as a math teacher at UA.
Cementoss: Since there isn't much to go off of for him, I decided on The Foundational Hero. Something simple and solid like Cementoss while fitting well enough with his Quirk.
Snipe: While I did consider options like the Sheer Shot Hero or the Marksmen given his skill with firearms, I think the Deadeye Hero fits him best given his cowboy appearance.
Recovery Girl: As tempted as I was to call her the Nursery Heroine, I think that the Health Heroine works as well. Partly for the alliteration and partly because she focuses on all forms of care and not simply physical health.
Hound Dog: Something like the Rabid Hero would fit well, but I think it would be hilarious if he was called the Therapy Hero. Again, playing off his role in the school, but would be so off putting with how he usually acts.
Nezu: The Lab Rat Hero would be perfect considering everything about him, but would be absurdly cruel given his backstory. So instead, I went with the Apex or Evolved Hero, referencing his role as an animal, but something far about other creatures.
Vlad King: I did consider something like the Vampiric Hero or the Royal Blood Hero, but I really like the idea of calling him the Blood Drive Hero. It works with his passionate attitude, plays on his bloody power, and has a more heroic connotation to it.
Thirteen: I like the idea of calling Thirteen something like that Discovery Heroine, referencing her role as a search and rescue heroine and space theme, but I like the Stella Heroine, as it's a non-threatening name tying back into how black holes are collapsed stars.
Midnight: While you could go with any kind of adult name for her, I wanted to go with the Respite Heroine. It would work with how her power makes people fall asleep and her general philosophy of heroism. That people need to blow off steam or it becomes a risk to everyone.
Present Mic: I really like the idea of calling Present Mic The Roaring Hero. Sure, it fits with his wild, rocker hero persona, but I think that it fits his more threatening side as well. Because roar could mean something boisterous and passionate, but it can invoke ideas of something violent and harsh.
Eraserhead: There are a few options, like The Restless Hero for his tired yet determined persona, but I want to go with the Blank Hero. It fits well enough with the Quirk and hero name, but I mostly picked it out for how it fits with Aizawa. It fits with his lack of theatrics with hero work, leaving his title blank.
[VD] A drawn TikTok skit of Ectoplasm and Power Loader from BNHA. It starts with Ecto walking by Power Loader's dorm room and hearing loud music coming from inside. He questions what PL is listening to, so he pokes his head in. Inside, PL is dancing to a very loud, punk/metal style song about digging a hole. The lyrics are as follows: "I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole. Diggy diggy hole. Diggy diggy hole." [end VD]
