When You Argue Over Which Ships Are "possible" In A Fandom It's Like... Idk Are You Campaigning To Be

When you argue over which ships are "possible" in a fandom it's like... idk are you campaigning to be the head clown at the circus?

"Those characters didn't even have a scene together!"

Okay well your OTP had every scene together and they're still not a canon couple so at the end of the day we all still put on the big red shoes one foot at a time.

"This character wouldn't be into this character because,"

You're probably right because, like your ship, it wasn't written into the actual show. Counter argument: whilst in the fandom land of make believe, we can make those little guys do whatever you want them to.

"This ship is the only one that makes sense!"

0+0=0. We're all 0 for 0, okay?

God bless rare pair writers and people who just put two characters together because they look cool. Fandom could stand for more, "okay but what if [insert bananas bonkers scenario here] happened?" tbh.

I figure try something like this. Ask me any of these questions and I’ll answer to the best of my abilities!

for the bnha asks, what are your thoughts on 22 & 28?

Thanks for the asks! And to any reading this that are anime only, any spoilers I may mention will be *starred* before hand, just in case.

22. The ones I can honestly recall off the top of my head that genuinely surprised me.

Sudden Iida moments

- The moments where Iida suddenly does a huge action that turns the situation on its head. The ones I refer to in particular are the sudden burst during the Calvary Battle, the Joint Training Battle, * and him bursting through the air to reach out and taking Midoriya’s hand while he was trying to escape from them after running away from UA. *

Throughout the story, Iida had gradually been placed to the sidelines more, being replaced by characters like Todoroki and Bakugou, coming across more as comic relief (save for during his personal arc with Stain). And it’s saddening because I do believe he’s such a great character. So those moments in particular happened, I was shocked and overjoyed because those moments highlight how powerful he is and why he deserves to rub shoulders with Midoriya, Todoroki and Bakugou.

Blackwhip’s Debut

- Even though we get hints before hand, I personally had no idea that Izuku was going to get such a significant power up, or it was going to happen/emerge like that. When we get introduced to Banjo and how his quirk works, I was actually surprised that Horikoshi decided to go this route. The results of the decision, I’ll admit, is a mixed bag.

Overhaul vs Mirio fight

- To be honest, this was one of the best fights throughout the entire manga imo. Mirio juggling to take down Overhaul and his goons while staying two steps ahead of them along with protecting Eri. Mirio losing his quirk. And of course Mirio STILL fighting Overhaul with nothing but his body. I still tear up a bit watching it because Mirio was nothing short but incredible.

Those were my genuine surprising moments.

28. For me, All Might. Literally within the course of three episodes, I adored this man. He was charismatic, powerful and genuinely funny. Him having the Superman-like figure and still being hilarious to watch is difficult in my opinion, but Hori pulled it off easily. I could already see that AM was going to be a great literal father father figure to Izuku. I know some people thought he was horrible to Izuku when he said he couldn’t be a hero without a quirk, but I see it as him doing his job as a hero which was protecting him from the dangers of the world, as gently as he could. Because sometimes to do some good, you may have to come across as a bad guy. Plus, since AM was quirkless before receiving One For All, there was no other individual who could tell Izuku the truth better than him.

Thanks once again for the asks, @violetlunette

Do readers even realize how amazing it is for a writer to receive comments on one of their stories, because like, I got a comment, and it was someone’s thought process about something that happened, and you know what, that shit left me too happy for words. I just. !!!!!!!!!!!!. I couldn’t language. There was no way to express my joy in spoken words. I ran to my sister and swung open her door to screech loudly while jumping up and down. I ended up stuttering something that vaguely resembled English to my dad as a stomped into the garage. Like, this comment filled me with such incomprehensible joy that I just, lost my grasp of being human. That’s what happens when you leave a nice comment of your thoughts, or even incoherent yelling or a keyboard smash with exclamation points. We get super happy you like the content we wrote. We want to provide you with more. Like, you readers, you have all of my love and appreciation

Hey, stop scrolling.

Everyone who is reading this: I’m so glad you’re alive. I’m so proud of you. You are loved. I’m here. Don’t give up, we’re almost there.

Pass it on.
