Cousins…… 

// setting things up to drop some hugeeeee story things for Shimi!

//kICKS!!!! 

I forgot to post this redesign I did for Tetsu’s hero costume, cause like, cmon this mans gonna get some frostbite! 

Just added an undersarmor shirt and some gloves and bracers(i think thats what it is???) and extended the top bar on the mask!

*dw shimis normal costume is suited for winter already*

reminder that being against ai also means being against character.ai and not using character.ai and not interacting with character.ai

i've never talked to chatgpt i've never talked to character.ai i have no interest in talking to a chatbot even if it's fun or based on my comfort character. if we want companies to stop using ai we need to tell them we aren't going to interact with it - so don't.

don't talk to robots. full stop.

Hey tetsutetsu, you getting good grades 🤨

I know you hard-headed (pun intended 😋), so I just gotta check up on you.

Tetsutetsu: Thanks for checking up on me! It means a lot!

Tetsutetsu: And your joke was really good sir!

//its 3am that means its ramble time

With Overhaul arc upon us in the anime. i say its high time,for me to reintroduce my very first Verse I ever made for Shimi and the first one ive ever deeply explored for Shitetsu, the issue issss theres no,definite end for that verse... Meaning, the verse basically exists as an everlasting pain and angst route right now, with no definitive ending, which quite frankly, aint very plus ultra of me

Like just an au of consistent denial and emotional turmoil,is fun but only,for so long, so, i will ramble out here with some stuff

So if I keep traitor verse as I have it currently, Shimi is manipulated into becoming a yakuza lackey and over the course of a few months breaks into a personality fed on obtaining power, that which she calls "blighted" and in a way sections off, Shimi from Blighted acting as if she were two different people, but instead of my tree branch route of an ending,

Shimi gets found and 'rescued' from the Yakuza and is kept at UA as a hope to rehabilitate her, which comes with more angst yes, but also, that power she got helps her boost her way into the hero course while attending therapy to help break her from the mindset of being two people.

Tetsu would be mostly unaware of the circumstances but noticeably worried his (girl)friend is missing from,school and isnt be let out to investigate where she is, adding into his fear of failing those he cares for, and when she comes back like... Well, a villain, he gets really pensive and kinda angry that shes like that because she wasnt months before, why is she so????? Cruel and violent now???

And he probably tries to make her talk to him a lot,,sometimes with some luck and other times he takes a fist to the face, and overall hes really torn up about it because thats NOT the Shimi he knew but that is still SHIMI, and hes so mad he cant just go out and fight those people who changed her in such a way, but he knows its for the best he cant do that, and it messes him up so much, but hes trying and he tells it to Shimi,sometimes and occasionally she enables him to like take it out on her since she too was at the time of being with them enjoyed being a villain, even if for a short time

I wanna give it a better end where ultimately Shimi does become a hero just, not one whos allowed to do villain apprehension, and the trauma inflicted upon her by the yakuza can be undone to a healthier state, but also, i want to share some of my really bAD ENDINGS BECAUSE THEYRE SO WilD,

Like Shimis villain verse is actually an offshoot from this AU, where once the Yakuza falls, she wanders around and then gets picked up by the League of Villains.

And Tetsu's villain arc which too could be sprouted from this traitor verse where he does actually go and beat the Yakuza up, but because of just how vigilante it is, (and also because he probably beat them an,inch of their lives) thinks he cant ever be a hero anymore or do good, so he just, "i guess its villain time"

Theres just. Alot I can do with it. And its cool?????? I think??? Its a long ramble,I'm,so sorru

on bakugous hero name

[ SPOILERS FOR MY HERO ACADEMIA CHAPTERS CHAPTER 293 maybe beyond ]

Okay so like I said I was going to write that post about Katsuki Bakugou’s hero name some time ago, anyways I’m getting around to doing that right now! So we need to address something vitally important that I should’ve done earlier but now is an apt time as any. 

“Ground Zero” as a fandom hero name for Bakugou is something I am personally chill with. It is, however, no longer chill with it when people say things like “Bakugou’s hero name should have canonically been ‘Ground Zero”. 

I really don’t think I need to get into the reason why, but I’ve been proven wrong already so we have to do this now. 

My Hero Academia (Boku no Hero Academia) is a JAPANESE anime and manga series.

“Ground Zero” is defined as “the point on the Earth’s surface closest to a detonation“ when used in relation to large bombs and nuclear weapons

For those who do not already see where “Ground Zero” maybe being an issue as a canonical hero name I will go more in-depth.

Japan suffered two nuclear bombings in August of 1945 at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Furthermore, as a result of the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, the cooling system at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant had a meltdown causing everyone within 10km to have to be evacuated (at the time of writing, I do not believe people have been allowed back into this area). 

Alright now lets get into the meat of this.

“Ground Zero” is a term highly, highly associated with nuclear weaponry and other weapons of mass destruction when discussing bombs and such. Guess which country has actual generational trauma relating to the destruction of their cities and home via bombs? Japan!

Guess which hero name would be the WORST name that has bombing connotations to give to an audience that in recent history of having to live through horrible nuclear events, and have a horrible history regarding bombing and nuclear bombing in particular? Ground Zero!

And before anyone! Brings up the prototype design sheet of Bakugou, this picture! 

Just because this prototype design says “CODENAME: 爆心地” which does indeed translate to “center of explosion; hypocenter; ground zero”, that does not give you any reason to not consider the emotional impact that it potentially has towards a full on generationally traumatized society. 

Unless, of course, you truly do not care about people for who this media is directed towards because you know insensitive western-centric mindsets who don’t actually care about people other than themselves and their own enjoyment topped with a likely, extremely U.S. mindset that nukes are just “good”. 

Frankly, I would like to also discuss the implications of this mindset possibly stemming from anti-Asian discrimination or a fetishization of some sort or general disrespect for the literal people that this work of media is intended for, but I don’t quite know how to word it nor do I have the patience to make it easy for everyone to understand. Hopefully people still understand it anyways.

tl;dr: it’s a highly self centered and culturally ignorant thing to say that “Ground Zero” should’ve been canon for Bakugou’s hero name, which takes absolutely no care for the generational trauma of the Japanese who have suffered due to horrific bombings. fandom name? a-okay by me. Bitching that the name isn’t canon? leave!

“reasons to not kiss him: 1. you weren’t raised to love tender. 2. when he’s around all you do is tremble. when he’s around you want to get on your knees. look how much power he has over you. it’s dangerous. 3. he’s too good at forgiving and you’re too good at violence. 4. you know what they say about monsters. you know what happens to the boys who love them. are you going to do that to him? 5. your hands don’t know how to be gentle. think about the last beautiful thing that shattered in your palms. the fresh rosebuds crumbling between your fingers like a bruise. you wolf-boy, you war machine. you wouldn’t know how to hold something magic and not destroy it. 6. if you hurt him it might kill you 7. if you hurt him you might kill yourself. 8. you are very bad at rehabilitation. this is one addiction you’d fail to give up. he’s going to ruin you for all other kisses and all other boys and you’ll spend the rest of your life trying to forget his name. 9. you still aren’t sure he isn’t a dream. 10. if you kiss him, you might wake up. reasons to kiss him: 1. because he’s beautiful. 2. because he asked. 3. because he preceded please with, i’m not afraid of you.”

Resilient - Chapter 1 🐯

It’s the first day of school!

Shimi takes a step into the world of U.A. High but nothing feels cracked up to how it was supposed to feel.

Oh yo, new lore dropped??? not really pfrt, but I am hoping to draw out portions of Shimi’s fac

[ ko-fi ] < support me here!

This blog is kinda retired now, because I'm not really working on the Made Not Born story anymore - I still love all the characters I created but the story was just too big and unwieldy and I never found a way to tell it that I'd have been satisfied with. I might come back and do some short fics of certain events, or some mini comics, if I get the inspiration to do so. I'm also going to be putting everyone's profiles on Toyhouse (@/jamscandraw) where I'll be writing up a TON of lore that I don't think I've ever posted anywhere else

That being said that now means that because there's no story coming out, there's no such thing as spoilers anymore! You can ask me absolutely anything about the characters or the story I had planned, and I promise I won't say "you'll have to wait and see ;)" like I usually do. No limits, ask whatever you want!
