I already made the point that while Shigaraki, Dabi, and Toga got a symbolic moment with their hero counterpart as children reaching out to them
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Spinner is shown to be all alone during his moment
Tumblr media
Initially, I made it as a sad post to highlight the fact that Spinner has no one by his side. Like "Oh how terrible it is that no one is reaching out to him to understand what caused the little kid inside him to become who he is today"
But then I noticed how different his moment was compared to the other 3 moments. He is not just alone, but also behaving differently.
Shigaraki, Dabi, and Toga are either crying or begging for help in some way as children while Spinner is cheerfully running.
(If it's supposed to be different on purpose to highlight the difference between his character and his assigned hero compared to the other 3, then that's a post a smarter person should make).
That made me realize that he is not the Spinner we should see in a moment like that.
Tumblr media
It's this one. The poor Shuichi Iguchi who had to hide in his room to not be sprayed with pesticide for the crime of walking down the street.
And reading further ahead made me realize that he already had his symbolic moment. It's just that the "kid" version of him happened months ago.
Tumblr media
With someone people wouldn't really call "a hero"
Tumblr media
But then again...

Shigaraki Tomura Canon Tidbits #1
Happy Halloween from this Shigaraki fan! 👻 I feel like this is an especially important time for us because, well, symbol of death and decay. He's the embodiment of spooky and I love him for it! ❤️❤️
Unfortunately, wrote smut for both of my other blogs for the time being and I'm a bit burned out. *Sigh* Will try to scribble down something but since I'm not sure I will manage to do it today...
Here's some canon Tomura tidbits! Helpful for writing, and very cute~✨
Prefers quiet atmosphere (MHUI)
Likes to be talked to with respect, despite the fact that he often doesn't return that courtesy (lol)
Surprisingly open-minded; Will listen to the point of view of others, even if he disagrees with it
Likes playing games where he can figure out the strategy and win, but will get bored if it's too easy (MHUI)
Very good at reading people
Short tempered but able to rationally think through the situation once he calms down
Obsessive about research. Kind of a workaholic if you think about it??
He itches less if he's in a situation he can control
Feeling out of control may cause him to experience traumatic flashbacks
Likes to go on walks around the city
Especially if agitated?? That's how he (sort of) deals with anger which is surprisingly healthy??
Despite that, he hated going on nature treks in Smash. May be because it was hot.
Also in Smash, Tomura seems to hate being perceived as "cute" (too bad~~)
Doesn't wear socks, as we all know
Seems to prefer verbally talking through his thinking process to sort his thoughts out, and to bounce the ideas off of someone
Likes Green Tea
Often thinks up his current philosophy on the run, and is able to argue its points without believing in it. Basically, a debate lord lmao.
Which also (along with his room being full of books) suggests that he's pretty well-read
Stays up to date with the current events (boomer newspaper Tomura supremacy)
Seems like some kind of movement helps him think - most often seen scratching himself, or just moving his fingers. Stimming Tomura confirmed??
Extremally high pain tolerance

I know it was never gonna happen but I think it would have been cool if instead of Kirishima and Shinsou it should have been Hoseface on Gigantomachia telling AFO that that “we serve the true liberator” before tossing a mountain at him
Tumblr media
You are so right, @plf-advisor-stan.  You have blown my mind with how right you are. Everyone look at this incredible plot we could have had. My god, that would have been so incredibly good.
I wanted—so, so wanted—for Gigantomachia to have an actual character arc about choosing between Old Master and New Master.  He loves AFO so dearly, of course, far more than he does Shigaraki, but AFO transparently doesn’t care about his minions once he’s had his use of them,[1] whereas Shigaraki’s care for his team is repeatedly shown in scenes like him remembering Mr. Compress’s desire for sushi or reflecting out loud that he wants his comrades to get what they want.
There’s obviously a difference in the levels of Shigaraki’s regard for the League and for the rest of his followers, but all the same, I can’t imagine a Shigaraki who’d gotten to spend any significant time with Machia as a follower being willing to leave him in the dust the way AFO does in Jakku—indeed, calling the lonely Machia back to him is one of the first things Shigaraki does after getting out of the tube.  Shigaraki wouldn’t have left Machia alone in the mountains for 15+ years if Machia didn’t want to go, either.
Machia, as he was originally written, was not a mindless Noumu.  He spent the entirety of MVA vehemently not blindly submitting to Shigaraki because it’s what AFO wanted him to do, but rather testing Shigaraki’s worthiness, telling Shigaraki the kind of master he, Gigantomachia, would bow to, and insisting that Shigaraki rise to that level.  Shigaraki did, and Machia accepted him—it’s such a letdown that all of that effort on both their parts has, thus far, come to nothing.  Machia chose Shigaraki as his master once.  He deserves the chance to do so again.
And, of course, the same goes for the erstwhile MLA.  All that bleeding Shigaraki did, all the work the League put in while he was in the tube, and we just get nothing at all about what the PLF think about being repurposed to serve AFO.  Good lord, the higher-ups were so open about their disdain for the League when they thought they were just villains with no larger goal for societal reform, but how does their vision of liberation work at all with AFO at the helm?  As recently as Chapter 363, Skeptic—who’s nominally still giving the PLF remnants their marching orders!—spoke rather dismissively of AFO, instead citing Re-Destro’s desires, Shigaraki Tomura’s interests, and the intent to bring about anarchy that would contain neither heroes nor villains.
AFO is, consciously and intentionally, the ultimate villain.  And even if we’re meant to believe the MLA is all about the quirk supremacy,[2] it’s not like AFO’s even doing a convincing job of being An Strongest, given that All Might has defeated him twice!
The MLA never chose AFO as a leader; they followed Re-Destro in choosing Shigaraki.  It’s maddening that the story seems to want me to view that loyalty as so interchangeable.
Anyway, yes, your scenario is good and you should feel good; A++ thanks for sharing it with me, and it’s my pleasure to share it with my followers.
---
[1] AFO, you cad, rescue your danged husband from prison!!!
[2] They weren’t all about quirk supremacy, of course, which is what makes their lack of on-panel reflection even more exhausting.  I’ll spare the full rant on that until I eventually get around to that What Does the MLA Believe post, however.

JJBA Fic Recs Part 3
Hello! I like all these fics but the little star ⭐ means its extra funky. I’m sorry these are almost all from part 5. I swear its not my favorite part. First two links are for fic recs part 1 and 2
Jojo Fic Rec 1
Jojo Fic Rec 2
a guide to self-care: by pannacotta fugo and purple haze distortion by icaberries (oneshot)  ⭐
“Stands are a manifestation of our souls,” she says, voice clipped with professionalism yet soothing as she pets the brown, doglike Stand curled up around Fugo’s shoulders. “What they feel, you feel. If we cannot take care of ourselves, we can project our needs to our Stands and deliver it through them. If we do not know how we feel, we can look into our Stands and understand ourselves. By caring for your Stand, you care for yourself, although not directly.”
“I don’t know where to begin.” Haze isn’t like the Sex Pistols who are easily pacified by food. He’s not like Spice Girl who can express herself and her needs freely.
Fugo learns how to take care of himself and Purple Haze, with a little help from his friends.
Thoughts: LETS GOOO Fugo Trish friendship supremacy. Also I’m such a huge fan of stand centric fics so I’m automatically bias. Fugo enjoyers should def check this one out. It’s a good fic. Just Fugo learning to love himself and what more could you want??
Piove Sul Bagnato by pearliegloom
“I apologise Signore...?” “Kujo. Kujo Jotaro.” “I apologise Signor Kujo. I don’t believe I heard you correctly…?” “Your biological father is the stand-wielding master vampire, Dio Brando, who, in 1889, stole my great-great grandfather’s body and attempted to take over the world. I killed him once, nearly fifteen years ago now- but it seems… The bastard just won’t stay dead.” Giorno blinks at him before motioning for Mista to refill his wine glass. “Leave the bottle,” he tells him.
Thoughts: The summary looks a bit janky but the fic is spaced out. The fic is OOC but funny as hell, and consider the author and I just enjoy seeing Giorno and Dio being sassy. Jotaro/Rohan is not something I ship but man,,,,, I was forced to enjoy it okay. Rohan was just so funny I couldn’t not like it. Damn you author, I might seek out more now. All character interactions are just gold and I keep coming back for serotonin. Like, here’s a very small interaction
Mista is still frowning, studying Dio’s face like it was going to be on a test.
Giorno just watches him do it- watches the cogs in his head turn like a complicated old clock.
“...He’s kind of hot.”
“Mista. No.”
Very Funny 10/10
5 Times Giorno Relied On Narancia by li2
+ 1 time the rest of the team noticed.
Thoughts: Just as the title says. What more do you want?? Its sweet and I love the orange boy.
And Another One Bites the Dust by Origamidragons (oneshot)
In which quirks are mistaken for Stands, Stands are mistaken for quirks, and weird hand-related complexes are in abundance.
Or: Tomura Shigaraki and Yoshikage Kira switch places. They have fun. Nobody else does.
Thoughts: I never knew I needed to see Local Mega Bestie Bros Josuke and Okuyasu make Shigaraki their bro. I never knew that’s what I needed. Kira has a ball and the rest of the league collectively lose their damn mind. Please give them rest. Its a very fun fic. It feels very fast paced because of how often the point of views switch but it really keeps my attention as I read because I can get distracted from longer fics. 
somebody's baby boy ain't coming home tonight by simkjrs (oneshot)  ⭐
He rolls back the sleeve on his left arm and looks at the scabbed-over words that have been cut into his skin.
          KASAI 181           BRING PEN
It’s not like Jotaro makes it a habit to listen to what other people say to him, but this is too strange of a case. He doesn’t remember doing this to himself, but if he didn’t do it, then who? And if he did do it, then why can’t he remember?
----
Four months after Egypt, and there is something strange happening back at home.
Thoughts: author wHY WOULD YOU WRITE THIS that hurt. Jotaro centirc and it’s a long one shot. As per the authors words, “ I'm just sitting here like can everyone grow up and read this really fucked up and evil thing I wrote already?” Just some warnings real quick part 6 spoilers and there are some extra warnings in the notes. There’s an oc if that counts at a warning but we love the oc so read it. Once again, that hurt. Very well written. I felt very immersed in Jotaro’s thoughts and feelings. It felt so raw at some points. The ending is very good so go read

Can we talk about how BS it was for Deku needing to see the “crying child” inside of Shigaraki to make him want to save villains. What about the man struggling under AFO’s control, shouldn’t that be enough to make Deku want to save him? Maybe Kurogiri talking about how Shiggy was raised to make Deku realize that he was groomed to be this way? And then he thinks deeper about heroes and villains, cause and effect like anything besides what happened in canon.
Frankly, if we were going to rewrite this whole story post-Jakku, I’d have let Lady Nagant win her fight with Deku. Save the explanation of her extremely fucked up personal history for the several hours she'd spend dragging Deku back to AFO’s cave lair, because it is some horse shit that Deku is able to leave that encounter blaming Nagant's fate on AFO, when AFO met Nagant for all of a few minutes after like two solid decades of her getting repeatedly screwed by the HPSC and the society that let them get away with it. Deku would also have to spend those several hours in the company of what remains of Chisaki Kai, who definitely would not have the focus to spare on openly loathing Deku the whole time when he could be spending his fleeting lucid periods on increasingly hysterical demands to see his Pops. You know, just to make sure Deku gets a nice long look at what became of Overhaul once the heroes handed him off to state custody.
Anyway, my beef about that whole situation aside, once Lady N delivered him and fucked back off with Overhaul, the story could let Deku spend some time in captivity while the villains tried to soften him up enough for Shigaraki’s hatred to overpower One For All. Make him actually have to talk to the villains for more than a few minutes in the middle of a crowd or a battlefield. Let Toga run the same question she asked Uraraka by Deku; let him ask Spinner why someone who was professing to follow Stain was now following Shigaraki. Make him have to field Dabi after vouching for Endeavor on the field. Let him watch Shigaraki writhe and rant for a while. Hell, let him get an earful of Skeptic at some point.
Sadly, it seems all that will have to wait for the fix-it fic.
As to the rest… Let’s definitely talk about it—below the jump.
jump tldr: You’re completely right about Inner Child Tenko being unnecessary hand-holding of the main character; there would have been much better ways to write Deku coming to the understanding he needs, but part of this is Tsukauchi's fault; Kurogiri’s nice and relevant to Tomura’s childhood history, but if you’re really looking to talk about saving who Shigaraki is now, consider Spinner Supremacy.
The vision of the five-year-old is yet another iteration of one of my long-standing beefs with Deku’s alleged oh-so-uncommon drive to save, yes. Like, if Deku were really letting himself think about it, he had all the clues he needed as far back as the mall encounter, when Shigaraki all but said into a microphone while staring meaningfully at the audience, “Something very bad happened to me in the past and I hold All Might personally responsible.”
The kindest interpretation I’ve got about that—and I actually just came to it while typing up this answer, so thanks for that, anon!—is that it wasn’t All Might’s answer to Deku’s later question about it that got Deku’s mind off the subject, but rather Tsukauchi’s. All Might saying, “Yeah, sure, I fail to save people all the time,” would be cause to think further about what happened to Shigaraki to make him say something like that, but Tsukauchi instead said this:
Tumblr media
Do you think this man ever lays awake at night having flashbacks to how this line felt leaving his lips?
I'd always kind of thought the line was a bit out of left field, but it would track with the conversation if it were being offered as an explanation for Shigaraki's line—which Tsukauchi even brought up, prefacing the panel above with, “Worried about what Shigaraki said?” I think, then, that what he was saying here was basically that he thought Shigaraki was making a threat for the future—like, "All Might may have saved everyone this time, but just you heroes wait, my next plan, that'll be the one where All Might fails to save someone. Then you'll see that smile is phony. Then you’ll all see!"
That's still not a great excuse for Deku taking the out—after all, Shigaraki obsessing over setting up All Might for a situation where he fails does imply that he's got a beef about heroes failing—but it's at least something. Certainly it’s a reading that would fit into the heroes’ early understanding of Shigaraki as a sullen manchild, and villains of insane “others” with no motivations any reasonable person could ever parse—and Deku, raised in the thick of that society, has all the reason in the world to take any explanation he can get that doesn’t undermine his faith in his favorite hero, his predecessor, and the pillar of his entire society.
I would be a lot more forgiving, though, if Deku would ever admit that he’d had much earlier misgivings and consciously chose to ignore them because they made him too uncomfortable to look at straight on. It would be in keeping with Deku’s tendency to clam up when he doesn’t know how to handle some wrinkle in his nice, clean heroes vs. villains morality,(1) and it’d be entirely in line with the failings of Hero Society as represented by Tenko’s Long Walk. Further, overcoming it would be a much better marker of growth than the (demonstrably false) claim that Midoriya Izuku, patron saint of saving people, just never had that failing at all—but he totally has both an overwhelming drive to save and an analytical streak, we swear.
OKAY, sorry about that whole diversion. Yes, hard agreed that Deku really ought to be able to find some sympathy for Shigaraki after everything he’s heard and seen, and it shouldn’t require some hackneyed vision of Shigaraki’s inner child. I’m also 100% down for Deku talking to people who are close to Shigaraki to come to a better understanding of him.
Kurogiri is one good option, but somewhat complicated by the continued uncertainty on where the manga is even going to fall on treating Kurogiri, where “Kurogiri” means “the 12+ years Oboro served as a guardian to AFO’s ward, bearing intimate witness to his growth from a child of less than ten to the villain Deku meets at USJ, and, by implication, developing a level of fondness for the boy as someone he ‘could not abandon’.” I very much want to see Kurogiri talk about Shigaraki some more—I will also accept Oboro regaining consciousness with a decade and change of new memories and loyalties to sort out—but I fear that taking that tack would be somewhat overly complicated for the time the manga has remaining.
Still, even if we do get Kurogiri/a reckoning with Oboro’s existence as Kurogiri, that strikes me as being less a good information source for Deku and more a hurdle for Aizawa to overcome—Aizawa, who has been distressingly vengeful against Shigaraki ever since the whole Kurogiri thing came out, despite Shigaraki’s age making it quite clear that he could not have had any active hand in Oboro’s fate. Aizawa, who has been so focused on saving his kids that it seems not to have occurred to him at all that Kurogiri might want to save his. Aizawa, who in this most recent chapter has claimed to be “telling it to Aoyama straight,” about the low odds that he will be able to remain at U.A., yet had nothing to say about those odds when it was his friend who had had his life toyed with and warped for reasons wholly outside of his control.(2)
No, Kurogiri feels pretty thoroughly regulated to Aizawa’s corner at this point. The character who’s really being set up for this role, I feel, is Spinner.
Spinner, following Stain’s example, protected Deku all the way back at the training camp, laying some early ground for them to be able to have a pseudo-civil conversation. Spinner has dealt with discrimination due to his quirk—and particularly the weakness of his quirk—in ways that could easily be raised as a parallel to Deku’s experience of quirklessness. Spinner and Deku are now both profoundly invested in Shigaraki’s welfare, making them natural allies against All For One despite their otherwise opposed positions. Spinner and Deku are the only characters that get arc narration, distinguished by the past tense they use to discuss current events and how those events affect the future.(3) Spinner and Deku are both green.
Spinner is the one who bonded with Shigaraki over mundane pastimes. Spinner is the one with insight into what Shigaraki wants now and why he wants it. Spinner is the character with the best handle on who Shigaraki is outside of what AFO tried to make of him. Spinner is the one most tightly glued to Shigaraki’s side, with only the scene-setting with his PLF followers and Shouji “gonna have a cool moment before the series ends” Mezo as a possibility for any other endgame whatsoever.
Spinner also recently watched his keen understanding of Shigaraki’s emotional state—an understanding that turned the tide for the villains at the tail end of Jakku, when Jeanist and Lemillion’s arrival came so close to cinching a hero-side victory—immediately backfire by careening Shigaraki straight into AFO’s hands. So, you know, it’s never going to be easier to convince him that he can either support Shigaraki’s hatred or he can support Shigaraki’s freedom. The empty horizon, or the man who showed it to him; Spinner doesn’t get to have both.
This would likewise lead Spinner’s arc to a proper culmination: resolving his sense of emptiness. Going from a self-loathing shut-in to a terrorist cloaking himself in another man’s cause when all he really wanted was an echo of that other man’s fervor, to falling for a new man because he saw a reflection of himself in that new man’s experience, all of these were just different forms of self-focus. It’s in the last iteration, though, that Spinner began to really look at someone outside of himself for reasons other than what personal fulfillment that person could give him. Realizing that he’ll have to sacrifice that chance at vindictive self-fulfillment if he wants to save the guy he bonded with—that he’ll even have to risk Shigaraki’s hatred himself by turning against that vision of “everything between heaven and hell”—that is Spinner resolving his emptiness in a way that will last.
Of course, none of this is going to matter if the endgame turns out to be, “Deku fights Shigaraki to a standstill and then Eri Rewinds him back to being Tenko” or some shit, but if there is to be any reckoning with Shigaraki as he currently exists, getting on speaking terms with Spinner is—in my admittedly very Spinaraki-colored view—Deku’s best hope. Other people—the rest of the League, Kurogiri, Nana, All Might, Bakugou—might well have roles to play yet, but I can’t imagine what the point was of setting Spinner up as “Shigaraki’s most devoted follower” (or, more literally, “the one who cherishes Shigaraki the most”) if he’s only going to get peeled off by Shouji before he and Deku have a chance to talk about how much more Deku needs to know beyond “crying five-year-old” if he’s hoping to do anything remotely productive with that psychic link.
As I’ve said time and time again, saving “Tenko” doesn’t mean shit if it doesn’t lead to Hero Society addressing the problems that formed all the other villains Tomura represents. And Deku, Hero Society’s highest hope, is still, even after everything he saw outside the walls of his hero academy, still telling people that they’ll get their old lives back, that he’ll put everything “back to normal.” Does he have the slightest idea what horror that implies to the people whom that normalcy pushed out?
Who better to tell him than Spinner, who suffered under the old normal, who met and grew close to others who all suffered like he did but for reasons entirely their own? Who spent months working closely with people with wildly radical ideas for a new, different way, who is now becoming a focal point for people all over the country who see in him the same kind of inspiration he once saw in Stain, that of someone willing to stand up and fight back? Who better to say, “You have to care about the people you turned us into, not just the kids we used to be”?
And that’s my pitch for Spinner Supremacy. Thanks for the ask, anon!
--------
(1) As seen with Kota’s hatred of heroes, Shinsou’s resentment of those “blessed” with good quirks, his drive to save shriveling up in the face of the maimed Overhaul, both times Shigaraki laid out his motives without an attendant vision of a crying 5-year-old, and so on.
(2) This is oversimplifying things somewhat, sure—we can assume Oboro had his brain tinkered with by a mad scientist to lay in directives and orders, which is a significant difference in levels of agency compared to the Aoyama family’s blackmail/hostage situation. But it is not a distinction I expect the people in charge of e.g. handing out Hero Licenses to care about.
(3) Bakugou has a tiny, tiny bit of future!self narration, but he only uses it to talk about how his body moved without him thinking about it, while Future!Deku and Future!Spinner have more broad statements to make about where their stories are going and how they’ll impact the world.
