"James And His Five Lives"

Oscar Pine and Miles Morales would be bffs

15 year old boys trusted into a powerful fate they didn't want and they initially can't come to term with

They both have a very flawed mentor they initially have a rocky relationship with but gets repaired with time.

They're both trying to measure up to an ideal hero who died.

They're both dorks in love with a goth girl who's more competent than they are and is plagued by guilt over the death of her beloved friend(s).

And then there's this

so every one in class 1A tired to say something nice to midoriya (largely failed. horribly. but moving on...) while bakugo said this;

bakugo compares midoriya to himself; he feels like they are now on the same wavelength because midoriya finally has power and is no longer the little quirkless nerd he has known all his life. (let's put aside for one moment that midoriya is infinitely stronger than bakugo and strength-wise they are nowhere near on the same level, like bakugo wants to delude himself they are.)

in bakugo's mind, you seemingly can't be powerful without being as insufferable, as crude and cruel, as narcissistic as him; you can't be powerful and not view every one else as simply an extra (or worse than an extra - the space midoriya used to occupy: quirkless and useless). and this may be as close as bakugo will ever get to admitting what he has done to midoriya, the tormet he has put him through. the closest he will ever come to a warped apology, that can never be considered as an apology.

maybe this is why, in the last chapter, he said that "when it comes to deku, i know him best" - it was about strength and power only. because clearly bakugo doesn't know anything about midoriya on an emotional level. he only sees midoriya - only sees people in general - in terms of their quirks, their power, and nothing else. nothing else could possibly matter about a person, where bakugo is concerned - that's why he can look at midoriya, a boy so fundamentally different from him, and see something akin to a mirror image of himself. (again: even speaking just in terms of power (everything else about them as people aside) this is deluded.)

this is also what creates confusion on the part of a reader because- really? how can you compare to you the boy you've abused basically all his life; the one who, despite you being his tormenter, jumped into a situation where he could have been killed all to try and save you, even though you told him to go jump off the roof and hope he gets reincarnated with a quirk barely a few hours before; who is literally sacrificing his happiness, his mind and sanity and even his fucking body, in continuous attempts to save and protect everybody he crosses paths with? who had so little in his miserable life - made miserable largely by you - in terms of human connection and kindness, who only recently has been able to receive all he probably never even dreamed to hope for.. and still! decided to let all he felt so blessed for go. selflessly. and no matter how much it must have broken his heart. feeling so grateful for the blessing he was allowed to hold, the light he was allowed to bask in for the less than a year that he spent at UA, that he decided to sacrifice all of it again and leave it all behind, just in hopes of being able to protect it all. oh my fucking god. midoriya, i am so sorry an ugly ass bastard like this dared to compare you to him. oh my god.

I’ve been playing Dragon Age: Inquisition again lately, and I was pondering a new fic idea (and despairing because Josephine is so competent that she renders my central conflict moot the moment she appears on the scene) when the following popped into my head a refused to leave. I’m almost certain someone has done this before, but on the off chance they haven’t -

(To the tune of “What is This Feeling?” from Wicked)

DORIAN: Dearest Darlingest Felix and Maevaris

BULL: Fellow Ben-Hassrath Agents

BOTH: There’s been some confusion, over rooming here at Skyhold

BULL: But of course, I’ll do my duty

DORIAN: But of course, I’ll rise above it

BOTH: For I know that’s how you’d want me to respond. Yes, there’s been some confusion for you see, my room-mate is…

DORIAN: Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe…

BULL: A Vint.

(The rest of the song pretty much continues as originally written)

yo does anyone else feel CONSTANTLY guilty? like you’ve always done something wrong but you don’t know what it is?

“Kill me. Kill me and live with the memory. Then tell the stars that you won.” Is such a metal quote. But it’s from fucking. Warrior Cats.
