As they rebuild Japan after the war imagine if they put a statue of Kacchan where he fell into his victory pose after defeating AFO.

Now imagine it's a statue of his gremlin pose.

#bakudeku #bnha spoilers #/not serious #i dont think itd happen but wouldnt it be hilarious #you know the one hes in as AFO goes pop #like ah yes our hero #the feral teenager who harassed a multicentury mastermind villain into nonexistence #and called himself by his cutesy nickname that only his childhood bff rival bf uses regularly #surely the immortal pose of our daring hero should reflect AUDACITY of that magnitude #GREMLIN STANCE BAKUGOU GLEAMS DOWN ON PASSERSBY FOR DECADES TO COME #honestly tho there might be something to it if its the pose of him catching himself #refusing to fall until he has won #HES THE IMAGE OF VICTORY

"The light is fading fast. The intensity of color seeps from the forest around them, and fireflies begin to flicker to life over the water.

It isn't long before it's so dark that Izuku begins to stumble on roots and protrusions along the uneven ground. Each time he almost falls, Katsuki yanks him back into balance with the grip on his hand. He spits encouraging insults over his shoulder.

Two boys racing the colors out of the forest.

Izuku becomes so focused on his feet that he doesn't react in time when Katsuki finally trips. He flies forward with such force that they are both subsequently launched into the mud.

Izuku blinks up, dazed from his position next to Katsuki on the ground, and takes in the grayscale sky. Impressionist bursts of buttery yellow break through the charcoal air, and illuminate the shifting surface of the water.

The sounds of the forest filter back in, and that’s when he notices it.

Katsuki is silent.

That’s what sets him off. More than the blood, the panic, or the realization that they weren’t going to make it home in time setting in. It was Katsuki. Katsuki who was always loud, pissed off, and bigger than life just sitting there. Silent. Watching the blood trickle from the cut in his knee down into the muck."

People: “Shigaraki should be able to force his way out of the possession like the independent badass he was meant to be!”

Shigaraki: screams about things that happened to him when he was 5

#what was that about him having agency and being independent and being mature and— #he is none of those things #he is a big ball of sad #who misses his dog #bnha #boku no hero academia #bnha spoilers #shigaraki tomura #shimura tenko #bnha 361 #also lots of us dwell on things from our childhood like #what an icon #represent #lmao

FFXIV Write 2k23 - Day 10

Pick Your Own (Meetings) - Dravanian AU, y'all are just stuck with it now.

Reymanaud had four fearsome brothers and three terrifying sisters. The whole time he’d been in the room, they hadn’t left him alone, not for an instant. One was always beside him and keeping a keen eye out as if guarding their small brother with their life. They’d laugh at jokes, flirt when flirted with, and even dance with others as the night went on. However one was always there to keep an eye on them, and Haurchefant had a lot of time to notice this through the window he was stuck watching the party through.

He didn’t even know why he bothered watching, these parties had been a bitter sore spot for him since childhood and watching from the outside only made his anger grow. Haurchefant wasn’t allowed to attend parties alongside his siblings. His egg had been given to his father, the last gift his late mother gave to her secret love. Edmont had kept him safe from an angry wife, even in the egg. She’d told him to smash it, he’d argued that all children are precious. It had been the final rift in their marriage born of status instead of love.

Which meant the countess hated him, she hated him for having his mother’s downy soft feathery wings instead of the proper scaled ones like his brother. She hated his soft silvery hair, the same color as his mother’s, and her mother’s before her, and her mother’s before her, all the way up to a clutch laid by Hracevelgr after the devouring of his beloved Shiva. Most of all, she hated him for having his father’s charming smile. She couldn’t look at him without being reminded of her failed marriage- so she did everything in her power to never have to see him.

Once upon a time he’d been barred from a party at the manor, and he’d met Francel. The pair became unlikely friends and had experimented with each other in the way young Dravanians did when trying to figure out the difference between fondness, mating, and love. This time, he met Reymanaud, and an odd mixture of jealousy and heartbreak hit him. Rey was a small thing, but he took up more space by sheer personality alone. He filled the room when he walked into it, chipper and bright and gentle and soft. So unlike most other Dzemael boys, because just by looking at him, anyone with eyes could tell he was adopted.

Which was the sticking point. Adopted. This small fluffy eared boy four summers his junior was adopted into a noble family without a single question. He was no Greystone, not like Haurchefant was. He was a Dzemael, and no one questioned why there was a rabbit amongst dragons. Between the noble cruel knight Percival and the high inquisitor Charibert, no one dared accuse Reymanaud of not belonging in the family. So why was he allowed to attend parties and functions like the rest of his brothers, and Haurchefant was left out in the garden, watching through the window?

His eyes made contact with the dark haired viera and he ducked down to hide, lest his stepmother catch him again, but the damage had been done. Soon enough the door opened, and that too small, too fragile young boy stepped out. “Hello? It’s cold outside, don’t you want to come in?” He shut the door behind him, making it clear he’d been allowed away from the watchful eye of his siblings. Or he was just that good at sneaking away from them.

“I’m not allowed. The lady of the house doesn’t want me to attend.” Hopefully that would be enough for the small boy, he’d turn and leave following proper decorum like any good noble child and that would be the end of it.

“Well that’s bloody stupid. Come on then, if she gets mad at you, I’ll tell her I invited you in as my guest.” That wasn’t how things were done, or how this conversation should have gone at all.

“You can’t invite someone into someone else’s house, my lord.” Clearly he was too young to understand, or he didn’t have a proper education on the matters. Supposedly Charibert was from a commoner’s background, maybe that was why their son didn’t know what hospitality rules were.

The small boy thought for a moment, ears drooping as he tapped his foot on the ground. His face scrunched up until his smile grew wide and wicked and his eyes lit up like crystals before a fire. “I can’t, but my parents can say they brought you as a playmate for me. To distract me when I get bored so my brothers can mingle and find mates and settle down without having to babysit me the whole night. How good are you at lying? I’m awful at it, but if you claim we met before tonight and you’re good at convincing people, maybe we can sell it.”

“How can an Inquistor’s son be shite at lying?” The words tumbled out before he had a chance to tell Reymanaud how terrible this plan actually was.

“Halone help me, I’m too honest for my own good, it’s a curse I tell you. They named me after a bloody saint and now I can’t lie, it’s so bad even Father pities me and his job is exposing lies!”

Haurchefant found himself snickering a bit despite his earlier anger. “You really think your parents would allow it?”

“I know at least one of my dads would publicly shame the countess for locking someone from her own house out in the cold. Maybe both, at the same time, but one would be more subtle about it.” He offered his hand to Haurchefant, and reflexively, Haurchefant took it. “Just act like you belong, and follow my lead.”

Just like that, Reymanaud’s protective detail of siblings became his own. 

Not one questioned where their little brother had gone, or why he came back with the count’s bastard son. They simply hovered around the pair like nothing had changed. Florine brought them both drinks and a plate of food from a table, claiming she’d grabbed too much to eat herself and figured they’d do it for her. Francel found him after a short while and even danced with first Rey, then himself, then Dacien. Then he found himself dancing with Rey and for just one night, the world made some sort of sense. He’d have no regrets the morning after, no matter how angry his stepmother was. Tonight he had finally figured out what he’d spent all that time looking through the window for.

A place to belong.

A quick redraw of an old picture I stumbled upon. I believe I was like...10 years-ish when I drew the one below. It was heavily inspired by Sonic Heroes. I really enjoy the fact that after almost 20 years I'm still very much hyping over Sonic, drawing and writing ^^

#Shadowsfascination #my art #childhood drawings #a trip down memory lane #I kid you not I have so many sketches and drabbles and doodles of mostly Sonic on our attic #it's so much fun to see them again actually #although I laughed my ass off upon reading that little story #xD #character design #sonic the hedgehog #sonic heroes #fan characters #sth #also I didn't feel like drawing the fourth character #it's basically a green and blue tails

Somewhere between all of this lies our youth, the glory days of our past, the bittersweet memories of old.

We have grown up together, living victories worth remembering,

battles worth fighting,

laughters worth sharing,

and chapters worth closing, innocent still of time that passes us by.

At this end of the crossroad, I remember: It was a story of a lifetime, a journey, a last adventure with you.

Thank you for always being here.

And this one last time,

goodbye.

Oda's message about Akira Toriyama passing away.

"It is too early. The hole is too big. Sadness washes over me when I think that I will never see him again. I have admired him so much since I was a child.

I remember the day he called me by name for the first time, the day you used the word "friend" for me and Kishimoto, I remember being overjoyed with Kishimoto on the way back home. I also remember the last conversation we had.

He was one of those who took the baton from the days when reading manga made you a fool, and created an era when both adults and children could enjoy reading manga. He showed us the dream that manga can go global. It was like watching a hero going forward. For not only manga artists but also the creators in various industries, the excitement and emotion of the time of Dragon Ball serialization must have taken root in their childhood. His existence is like a big tree.

For the manga artists of our generation who stood on the same stage, the closer I got to Toriyama's works, the more I realised that they had a greater presence. Scary. But I am just happy to see the easy-going man himself again. Because we love Toriyama-sensei on a blood level. With respect and gratitude for the creative world he has left behind, I pray for his soulful rest in peace.

May heaven be the joyous world just as you envisioned it." (X)

Just remembered our motto week in highschool where we had a gender swap day. And I went full out. I taped off my chest with cling wrap and tape(unsafe don't do that, get a binder or Physiotape) stuffed a sock in my pants even tho one one cared and bothered with it, masc low-key drag king makeup, leather jacket biker look and getting upset at those who did it so halfheartedly. I was thriving.

It still took me 5 more years to figure out I am trans. But hey we got there!
