what if even tho sy is just an assistant sometimes disciples ask him questions bc he's weirdly well read for some dude who just spawned in one day and he'll just Answer shit if it's innocent enough. how does x demon fight? where would you find y monster? and his little hyper fixation brain just rears its head. just a weirdly helpful little scrunkly
RIIIIIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT. to the disciples hes just this guy that their shizun keeps around that knows weird obscure facts. disciples go to him like hes their personal xianxia google. i think it would be REALLLLYY funny if when sy realized his position in the sect hed be like "oh god im failing these kids. they need moral support they need 3 meals a day they need to know what kind of plant they can use to ward off Six Legged Snow Panthers" or smth like that. im not sure hes in a good headspace to really figure out how to take care of kids actually

The Dagda, the first born and powerful chief of the Tuatha dé danann, he’s Married to the goddess the Morrigan. The Dagda is a god of many things, such as: fertility, strength, fatherhood, magic, weather, plant life, druidry, wisdom, life and death. To accentuate his many faceted qualities, his title of ‘the Dagda’ means ‘the good god’ attesting his excellence at all things. He may be the true identity of the god Briain, the first son of Donn and Danu. Briain, underestimating his own strength, killing his father in an attempt to free his other siblings from his parent’s embrace. The Dagda was also a major player in the wars against the Firbolg and the Fomorians. The Dagda’s role however wasn’t as great as his brother’s: Nuada. But when Nuada was injured in battle, the Dagda carried him back to safety.
Like most of the Irish Celtic gods, after christianization, the Dagda’s divinity was stripped away, with Christian writers depicting him as a mere sorcerer. But his popularity endured, those same Christian writers immortalized his myths in written form. The Dagda was also commonly conflated with the Norse Odin, as well as being connected to the Vedic god Varuna.

Keep coming up with fic concepts tonight, so, now I’m stuck on the whole exchange from the last episode of
“Orym druidcrafts a flower and hands it to you.”
“What the fuck am I supposed to do with this?”
Like, Orym’s trying to shyly do courtship by leaving flowers at the doorstep of a very confused Ashton until someone starts rambling off the meanings of flowers to them and they get more confused.
(I just really want an exchange like
"Have you even talked to them yet?”
“Well, no, I haven’t. But I did leave him a potted gladiolus!”
“Oh. Oh, Orym, buddy...”)

what do you think Sisyphus' favourite part of Lust is? and vice versa, Minos' favourite part of Greed?
OOHHH THIS IS RLY GOOD TO PONDER..
i think sisyphus' fav part of lust would be anywhere with greenery. i like to think there'd be some reinforced greenhouses (in minos palace there's a few outdoor lobby type things where you can just hang out, tyhe rest of the castle is WELL reinforced so theres no need at all to worry about wind.), full mostly of fruiting plants and veggies and the like. Theyre always beautifully arranged and the love and care put into them both shows and just EMANATES thru the air. warms sisyphus' heart(while also putting a little longing into it..he'd like these in greed.).. he also likes a good apple. he fucks up any apples minos/citizens give him. OH EYAH he also likes to converse w people:) never for too long bc hes Like That but being in lust always picks up his mood, makes him a lil talkative:)
minos fav part of greed is sisyphus palace, its a high view, its sheltered, it has pools.. speaking of the view it has a FANTASTIC one. minos would love love love to traverse about greed without having to observe its beauty from a distance but it is so fucking hot and minos just Isnt built for those backbreaking temperatures. only reason he survives is bc he runs cold fghdfkjgdf. Anyhow yeah, sisyphus palace:)

Not sure if you've done this before but what about an AU where Manual gets OFA?
Keep putting this poor normal man in Situations
1- Masaki is putting out fires in the wreckage AfO and All Might cause in their first flight when he finds All Might's heavily damaged body, and does what he can to keep his blood in his body. All Might, barely conscious, passes on OfA but does not explain. By the time he awakes in the hospital, he has forgotten that he did it at all, and attributes the weakening levels of OfA to his injury.
2- Masaki, of course, also has no idea. And since he doesn't have any reason at all ever to use super strength, he never tries and never breaks any bones activating OfA. Instead the quirk simmers in his body, slowly strengthening his original quirk. It gets stronger a little at a time as Masaki adds drops to the stockpile.
3- Years later, this means his ranking and power are higher, though he's still no top ten. When the Sky Egg Party is attacked, Tensei gives him a different job- use his quirk to keep the building balanced by moving the water in the plumbing around until reinforcement can arrive, and lighten Captain Celebrity's load. So, he's in a different place when the bomber proto nomu attack, and more under heavier fire. So when he acts on instinct and kicks a proto nomu back, OfA activates and sends the bomber to the ground, breaking Masaki's leg in the process. He would have fallen had Tsukauchi not called for All Might to catch the building and everyone else.
4- speaking of Tsukauchi, he's one of the only three people who saw what happened- also Masaki himself, and Eraser. However, Tsukauchi and Eraser were a bit distracted, and so it takes a minute to put it together. Eraser picks up Masaki to help him to an EMT while Tsukauchi goes to hide Toshinori, who's out of time. But Masaki looks over and is like "uh I think that guy needs your help more than me". When Tsukauchi gives Toshinori a jacket to cover up, Masaki sees the injury, and puts the pieces together. Eraser is doing some of that too, realizing that no hysterical strength is going to take down one of those monsters, and worried that the villain factory made some sort of contagious strength that Masaki caught. So he brings him over to Tsukauchi for a statement. Masaki doesn't want to impose, so he tells Tsukauchi not to worry about him, he'll be fine, he needs to take care of that civilian he found." Tsukauchi realizes that last part is a lie- but that means Masaki knows AM's identity, plus the quirk weirdness, very sus. He takes both Masaki and Toshi, and sends Eraser away.
5- a very confusing conversation ensues, with everyone realizing what happened. Toshi almost cries at the fact that he had a successor all along and no one knew. Instead, he laughs softly and imagines Sir's reaction. He calls in a favor to get Masaki's leg healed quickly by RG. Masaki offers to return OfA, but Toshi thinks it might kill his body to take it all back now. He invites Masaki to train at Might Tower, if he wants, but he doesn't need to- AfO is dead, after all, he can live a normal life as he wants. Masaki squints, and asks a couple questions about the Villain Factory. "And... You think all that doesn't have anything to do with the AfO guy?" When Toshinori tells him how sure he is that AfO died in that fight, Masaki just frowns and tells him: "All Might, when I got down there, there wasn't another body."
A heavy silence falls over them. Masaki accepts the invitation to train, and is there often- though, to Toshinori's surprise, he seems to care about Yagi as much as he does All Might, if not more.
