#the funny thing is it’s canon

[gnappart]

Since I still haven’t be able to finish the new age of the bkdk Persephone&Hades AU (stuck in a cycle of have energy/no time or viceversa çvç), here a little fic that I wrote weeks ago at 2AM (I have a brilliant sleep schedule, thank you).

ANOTHER KIND OF SHOVEL TALK

Izuku got his quirk a week after his fourth birthday. He was watching TV with Katsuki when he sneezed. The little boy covered nose and mouth – like his parents taught him – and suddenly he was holding a fireball.

“Deku!”

“Kacchan!”

“You’ve got your quirk!”

“I’ve got my quirk!”

Jumping up and down on the sofa, they celebrated.

-

Katsuki’s fifth birthday came around and he still had to manifest his quirk. He was impatient, but his parents explained to him that quirks may take time to show themselves. So, Katsuki convinced himself that his quirk was taking its time because it was the most powerful one ever and he had to properly train his body to contain it.

He would look at Izuku’s pretty fireballs – he was getting better at making and controlling them – and thought that it would’ve been nice if he had a fire related quirk too, maybe explosions. It would’ve been awesome. Katsuki kept on dreaming and hoping.

-

However, as his sixth birthday was approaching, the other kids started turning sceptical and talked among them.

“Did you hear? Kacchan still hasn’t got his quirk.”

“That’s strange, right?”

“My mom said he’s probably it.”

“Ah, I know, quirkless.”

Quirkless. No, it couldn’t be. Those were lies of stupid extras who understood nothing!

“Soon. Soon I’ll get my quirk and I’ll become a hero with Deku, and I’ll show them!”

-

He turned seven, then eight, and still nothing. His classmates and “friends” wouldn’t try to hide their gazes and comments anymore. Some even tried to “put him in his place” but Katsuki punched back until they ran away.

When Deku found out, he had the strangest expression ever, so dark… Then he bursted out crying. Silly nerd.

Izuku clung to his friend’s arm all the way to the infirmary. Since the nurse wasn’t there, Katsuki had to do with Izuku’s clumsy help. Between sniffs and applying band-aids, Izuku kept repeating how amazing Katsuki had been to win against a whole group. Normally, the blond boy would’ve preened under the compliments. However, during the last year they started grating on him: Deku was lying to make him feel better. But he didn’t, he felt worse. That was the day the presence of Izuku started feeling sour.

-

Things repeated themselves until Katsuki couldn’t take it anymore; there’s so much the body of an eight years old can repress.

“Kacchan’s amazing, Kacchan’s amazing” he mocked, “Stop it! I know you’re lying! You just think I’m a useless quirkless! I can see your eyes… you think I’m pathetic, just like everyone else!” his voice raised until he was shouting, but he didn’t notice until he found himself panting.

Clenching his fists, he watched Izuku defiantly, challenging him to try to deny his words.

He was met with watering eyes and he felt his heart split: half of him was heartbroken for hurting his only friend, the other half was irked to no end.

“... Is this what you think, Kacchan?”

“Are you deaf, Deku?!”

Izuku flinched: Katsuki had never spoken the nickname with such venom. The blond boy scoffed.

“Right, that’s wrong. Because I am the deku, am I not?!”

Wet trails glinted on his heated cheeks. He was so angry, and so sad, so lost…

Tiny, a bit chubby arms enveloped his shoulders, hugging tight. Katsuku whined and tried to break free but just halfheartedly, as the more he wiggled the more his protests turned into hiccups and, soon after, full sobs. His hands found Izuku’s T-shirt and gripped hard.

“You’ve always been amazing, and just because you don’t have a quirk, you’re not less amazing. For me, Kacchan is and always will be the best, my number one Hero.”

It was like someone slapped his brain. Did he hear that right?

Without loosening his grip, Katsuki distanced himself enough to see Izuku’s face. They were both a horrible mess of tears and snot.

“... Not All Might?”

His friend quickly shook his head, so energetically that his green curls bounced comically.

“I like All Might, a lot! But I like Kacchan better! And, and! A quirk is just a tool! Like… a shovel!”

A chuckle escaped Katsuki’s lips.

“A shovel?”

“Yeah! And it may be useful, or difficult to control, or just pretty. But even without a shovel, you still have your hands!” and as he said the last words, Izuku took Katsuki’s hands in his, holding them like they were the most precious things in the world.

“Will it be more difficult to dig? Of course. Still, you can do it and it will be an amazing hole nonetheless!”

The shovel analogy was getting a bit out of hand, Katsuki thought, but he understood what his friend meant to convey.

His precious, kind friend, who still cried like a baby when he got hurt so that Katsuki would coddle him (in his own gremlin way) or that would go absolutely feral whenever someone even just thought of disrespecting his best friend.

Izuku, who despite receiving the cold shoulder and cutting words once too many, still looked at Katsuki like he hung the moon. And how could the blond boy not have his self-esteem back with those eyes watching him?

“Let’s be heroes, Deku.”

“Yeah!”

His arms were already open, ready to receive the hug Izuku charged with at him despite their closeness.

“And if you need a shovel, just say the word: I’ll be your shovel!”

“Enough with the shovels!”

And Katsuki hugged his friend tighter, so as to not make him see the redness creeping on his cheeks and ears.

FNAF Glitchtrap really HATES Mike specifically

For decades, the blank vision that Iudex Neuvillette wears near his heart has been subject to much discussion in Fontaine. Nobody remembers who it had once belonged to or why the ancient dragon protected it so jealously. It is said that if the Chief Justice would to stare at it for a long while, it would be sure to rain right after. Oh, how beloved that person must've been.

#genshin impact #genshin fanart #neuvillette #visions #wriolette #wriollette #neuvithesley #myart #sorry for the short drabble? #kasndkansd i have emotions over a simple thought i had #the tragedy for someone eternal to fall for someone who's here for only a brief moment eats away at me hhhh #it started with a funny thought of IF neuvillette needs to carry a fake vision for some reason after laughing at the archons for it #and then i remembered how people like kazuha would hold onto their loved one's masterless vision after they died #one thing led to another and now we have some wriolette angst with neuvillette cherishing wrio's masterless vision #after his inevitable passing #and idk if its just the traveller or if its even canon #but i like to think that neuv being a sovereign he would be able to hear the ambition of one's vision and maybe just maybe #he can use wrio's masterless vision to listen to his voice albeit ever so softly

i tried watching the 1st movie and i couldn't move on from the very ridiculous premises of how half of class 1A made it to that island, my point is that there's no way that deku doesn't know about bakugo's summer plans, so this is what i imagine went down a week before the movie takes place

#kirishima being bakugo's plue one and they're in that candy themes suite and bakugo's dogs are out and kirshima packed a suit for bakugo #what is going on lmaooooo #didnt finish the movie i am nottheir target audience but this was too funny WHY were denki and [redacted] jobbing there???????? amazing #bnha #deku #midoriya izuku #bakugo katsuki #kirishima eijirou #no yaoi implied whatsoever i just think this is a genuienly funny canon thing that happened like alright

Lan Wangji Goes To Lotus Pier AU: Part 5: Flip Slip.

(Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 4.5)

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #mdzs au #Yungmang Jiang Training Arc AU #lan wangji #wei wuxian #digital art #Trying out some digital techniques to see if I can get closer to feel/style of my traditional comics. #So far the biggest difference is *colouring* Digital colouring feels...not good. I have complained about this before and I'll complain agai #Before we get into the sad stuff with Yungmeng Jiang in the PD-MDZS comics lets have some lighthearted fun! #Remember that if anything bad happens to these Jiang disciples in the canon comic - they are happy in this AU B'*) #I think one of the funniest things about the teenxian dynamic is how WWX accidently finds things that get LWJ to feel flustered. #My guy wwx goes 'I'm going to lightly bully/tease this nerd 'cause his reactions are funny.' and LWJ goes “My god. He's everything to me.” #Part two of the fun part of this dynamic is that LWJ is ever so lightly self aware enough to LOATHE THIS CRUSH. #Hence why I have been marinating on this 'Accidental Lan headband miscommunication' concept. #This is how LWJ assumes that WWX knows what the band means in this AU. This will be relevant later. #And YES! I am still going to be making comics for this AU. I have so many ideas I simply can't hold onto forever.

I've been sad lately so I've been trying to boost my serotonin by drawing Jedi AU youngling trainer Maul (who I affectionately call Dad Maul)... it works :))

#star wars #fan art #jedi au maul #maul #darth maul #i call this my #happy au #it's fairly extensive and i have written many things for it #i love it a lot #its my happy place #all younglings belong to friends! #maul would be so chill if he never met palpatine #i have proof for this bro dont fight me #also i just think its so funny if jedi au maul has ALL the apprentices while canon maul has like zero

ok but stewy being canonically bi really makes everything about his relationship with kendall so much funnier like imagine being a beautiful bisexual stallion and your fate is to become best friends with and develop a 30 year crush on logan ‘homophobia’ roy’s prodigal son like. imagine having to do deal with kendall’s ‘no homo but my tongue is down your throat’ repressed bullshit for 30 years whilst also dodging the beam of mixed flavor racism homophobia his father directs at you every time he sees you within 5 feet of said prodigal son but also you feel a strange solidarity with this old man because he at least has also accurately clocked and acknowledges that his prodigal son is queer

#like no i dont think stewy is an out proud pride parade bisexual equity bro i think his own relationship to it all is its own thing but. #kendall just casually dropping ‘you kiss guys on molly’ like the most casual thing in the world to zero surprise from the sibs is like. #stewy being a canonical known gay presence in their lives is just so funny #succession #kenstewy #stewy hosseini #m

What is your opinion on apples, Fionn??

"I do enjoy a good apple, 'specially Granny Smiths! Gotta thank Wally for that, but..."

"The eye thing definitely wasn't something discussed in board room meetings..."

Peach's definition of a surprise may be a little excessive, but she's got the spirit! 🤭💖

One thing I haven't often talked about but which makes this pairing absolutely delightful to me is how the sheer difference in their social status would manifest in the "small" attentions they show one another. Nothing would ever be deemed too grand or too extravagant for the Princess, especially in the early stages of her friendship with Mario, and learning to apply a moderate level of zeal to her endeavors when trying to express her affection would still be an ongoing process even much later! 😅

(Inspired by this ask sent to me by @zootopiathingz. :3)

#Mario #Princess Peach #Mario x Peach #Mareach #concept #headcanon #aka the moment you realize that your crush has a giant replica of your face on her property #the fact that this is canon is very funny to me xD #I looked up the MK map in question and it's real!! #also the topiary is insanely huge #had to scale it down a little for this piece cause omg 😂 #there IS such a thing as too much #but it's the thought that counts! 😇 #Peach hoping Mario likes it - meanwhile he's over there trying to wrap his mind around it #Also I just realized it's almost been two months since I last shared a Mareach piece O_o #Guess this was overdue! #Mario Bros #fanart

inverness here they come!!!!

#ignoring canon. does everyone know that esther forces her way back into his life even in a world where they don't have to meet #and then they just ditch london and live an oddly quiet life until the end of the war in scotland. they told me that. #more than anything in the world i am always thinking of the incredible force that these two are and how determined they are to survive #please see: esther genuinely trying to shoot him (makes me laugh everytime i see it) and the way karl blends himself into every scenario #not above lying not above running away just trying to get by. 'i treat others the way they treat me'. distrustful by default #and finally the only reason these two stop kicking and clawing is the budding family they accidentally form #AND THEN THE LAST 20 MINUTES OF EP4 HAPPENS. #ep8 gives me a semblance of peace. theyre in inverness to ME. #i do also rly adore their twin rbf. at any given moment they look as though theyre chatting shit (they are) #AND the gun thing is so funny. the gun fails and instead of giving up esther just tries to shoot him again LLOOOLLLL #no thoughts towards the consequences and with no experience with guns as well. she's literally goated #jacob fortune lloyd's interview on this and his thoughts on their relationship also makes me a tiny bit sick so . #anyways.

more clone^2 memes because i think they're funny

#dpxdc #dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dpxdc crossover #dpdc #clone^2 #danny fenton is not the ghost king #so canon to clone^2 and clone damian the portal that ends up transporting damian to amity park is left pr ambiguous #so really how he got there could be one of many things whether it be through divine intervention or clockwork's doing or hell #it could've also been quite literally the 1 in 1 millionth chance that a natural portal opened up beneath him and sent him to amity #and was a happy accident #but the idea that the laz pits or another adjacent such entity heard damian wanting an older brother (he meant og damian but oops never- #specified) and then sends him to the one person who could fulfill that wish and make him happy at the same time. #was really funny to me within the context of the lilo and stitch meme. the meme can also be seen the other way around with danny as lilo #and damian as stitch. but danny being stitch was infinitely funnier and ~technically~ more accurate imo #danny technically IS a nice angel but also. he's a developing menace to society (just ask wes) and he's going to make damian one too #danny being from the midwest means he has a midwestern accent and thats not something the bats know how to handle when they finally meet hi #hey look at that! my meme making skills are steadily improving. im no longer making the same joke six different times in different formats #those first two images i made a few days ago the rest i made in the last thirty minutes in a spur of clone^2 induced inspiration #and procrastination of writing the cfau rewrite of the first post. we are 10k words deep folks and just barely got past the 1st gala reunio #dunking on the giw is a god-given right and danny WILL pass it down to damian
