his look was nice, but what if a party went wrong:

or i believe that afo's had extremely troublesome teenage years since he managed to naturally obtain superpower, unusual look slash white hair in the era when everyone feared the other, and the biggest wasp nest in his ass - i mean, he could jump like a monkey on the streets and cause problems in his supposed to be early thirties, then gained almost 0 chills in his 200s, there's no good sense in his head and has never been... but at least he would make yoichi going home with his hair hidden under the hood, so little brother would always wait there for him

Thematically speaking, the most important thing Terry Pratchett taught me was the concept of militant decency. The idea that you can look at the world and its flaws and its injustices and its cruelties and get deeply, intensely angry, and that you can turn that into energy for doing the right thing and making the world a better place. He taught me that the anger itself is not the part I should be fighting. Nobody in my life ever said that before.

More lessons from Pratchett:

  • Good isn’t always nice (i.e. sometimes appearing nice is a luxury you can’t afford if you want to do the right thing) (this refers to setting bones and fighting evil, not to being pointlessly horrible)
  • Evil can appear very nice indeed (watch out for people who smile while they deny your basic humanity)
  • People can suck, be rude and actively work against their own best interests, but personkind is still something we must protect so they can keep being wonderful in between all the stupid
  • “Person” is always a broader category than you think
  • It’s not about who’s best for the job - it’s about who shows up and does it
  • Be very aware of how you treat those in your power; you will be judged on it
  • Respect women, which explicitly includes trans women (with or without beards and steel-toed boots)
  • Kings: no. Hard-boiled eggs: yes

  • No one - not military leaders, not kings, not patricians, not gods - no one is beyond consequences or above justice
  • Addendum: those who think they are are often the worst of the worst
  • Kids understand more than we think and sometimes the best way to protect innocence is to arm them with knowledge, confidence, and skill
  • How you’re born is intrinsically less important and less relevant than who you make yourself into
  • I can’t put it into a pithy sentence but that bit where Magrat is like “let’s toss [Lily] off the tower” and Nanny answers with “go ahead then” and Magrat hesitates bc it’s easier to do something like that together than to make the decision alone… impactful.
  • Evil begins when we treat people like things.

pacific southwest airlines lockheed l-1011 tristar, which had a cute little mouth

"The PSA slogan at the time, “Catch Our Smile”, is why all their aircraft were painted with a smile under the cockpit windows. The planes were referred to as “Grinningbirds” and the L-1011 was, perhaps inevitably, “Mother Grinningbird”. PSA itself was eventually taken over by USAir in 1988." (x)

Just can't stop giggling about second

On one hand I want to ask how you found his height

On the other hand, high school au where the vault is just a locker that AfO keeps shoving first and second in

i had to do math for it, here's Second next to a to-scale ruler based on AfO in the same panel

even if you're a bit generous given his footing, slightly bent legs, and perhaps being at most foot behind the ruler, he's not very tall

Sir Nighteye and Lady Nagant both use honorific titles in their hero names, it can’t be a coincidence.

So I propose: Sir Nighteye and Lady Nagant as Izuku parents. Izuku can habe his own title as a treat.

I have seen more and more readers on Ao3 mentioning that they don’t read non finished fics.

And I am not here to tell you to read fics that aren’t completed yet, because it’s not my job.

But please, if you subscribe to this policy, be aware that this absolutely contributes to fics never being finished.

Because writing a fic, especially a multi-chaptered-one, takes a lot of time and effort and writers need positive feedback to make it worth it. So if they aren’t getting it, the chance of them dropping the project altogether is significantly higher.

Once again, if ask game still on:

Devil wears Prada AU, where Izuku have to work on someone horrible and tremendous, but in a way that brings goodness to him

Avatar

Is... Is that not his canon internships with Nighteye or Endeavor... Izuku working under someone who's a less than decent person (and also doesn't really like him/isn't impressed with or prioritizing him) but taking a lot from it anyway... I mean I guess I assume the titular Prada Devil doesn't die or have a family member taken hostage so that's different...

But both options do sound like they could be very interesting

yosh, here goes the afo bad end entry! in which afo is fond of collecting quirks and mementos of his late brother.

AU in which yagi fell prey to afo's collection in their fated battle 6(ish? he can't really tell anymore) years ago. he manages to escape with the assistance of young tenko but was promptly retrieved after a year on the run. much to afo's annoyance, ofa is no longer in his possession. yagi already passed it on to another, in a desperate bid to keep it off afo's reach.

so in this verse ronin machia was searching for a lord to serve for years yet no one has been worthy of his sword 😔 until one day he does not befriend a honorable man, with wiseness of a teacher and skills of a seasoned warrior. so then machia decides: 'THAT'S HIM!' - only to find out later that this is not a man, but a fox, actually, and the one that he is hired to kill. but he takes very manly decision to follow his heart, even if it will cost him his life...

😆 this is redraw of the screencap from the 'samurai cat' series!

some aspects of the au are also similar to its concept:

look how cute it is 😭

AHSHS GLAD TO HELP
