He looks pretty in the sunset
You have to understand that this is a gift of the highest order in my eyes
βHe knows he's grinning like an idiot, but the cat is so cute he can't bring himself to stop. He raises his hand, thumb to the sky, in lieu of a response.

^ passage from @plusultraetc βs fic ! her works are always excellent and i wanted to draw smth small insp by a moment from one ^β©^ i recc all of them
One of my FAVOURITE ship dynamics to write or read in fics is when two characters are basically already a couple but they just haven't realised it yet. They call each other up at like 3am, they cuddle, they sleep in the same bed, they fall asleep in each other's arms, they hold hands, they practically live together, they talk about having a ~ special connection ~, they just haven't actually kissed or done the do or talked about their feelings yet so they're still both like "but I just don't know if they like me in that way!!"
Drawing my dad and then turning him into all might because heβs a big dad
Kirishima for ask game?
Anon I am giving you a gentle forehead kiss or perhaps a fist bump if that is more your style.
one aspect about them i love: What ISN'T to love about that sweet young man? I think if I had to name ONE thing, it's just... his attitude. I've rewritten this about a dozen times by now because I just don't know how to get it out correctly. He struggles with self worth issues yet would trip over himself to help someone is his very shoes. He took a moment in his life where he felt so weak and turned it around. Used it as fuel forward into the future of becoming a better hero and person. (I think he was a terrified pre teen but you get what I'm saying in the context of the show) Even though he's down on himself and his quirk, he literally wants to use it to save people. Make them feel safe and protected. He's just so kind and sweet I adore him so much.
one aspect i wish more people understood about them: My dude is depressed. We see a glimpse of it in middle school and in the way he talks about himself/his quirk. Yes, he keeps trying. Yes, he says it with a smile on his face. Yes, he attempts to hide it between compliments of others/their quirks. But he's sad. I think what I've seen has done a good job of exploring that in fandom, but it's not something that can magically be fixed or looked over. Send this kid to THERAPY!
one (or more) headcanon(s) i have about this character: If he sees a classmate of his is sad, he says they have a 'bro-tein' deficiency. He would absolutely make a silly pun to make them smile and then offer to hang out. Be it just sitting with them, offering a listening ear, or anything else he felt in his power to do. He's a sweetie.
one character i love seeing them interact with: Oh man ONE? He and Bakugo warm my heart. Buddy looks at that gremlin kid and is like 'I cannot take your ass seriously at all, you're my bro now' and Bakugo just... rolls with it? I think their personalities line up really well in general, and then their quirks work well together, too! Red Riot cannonball when they become pro heroes or BUST.
one character i wish they would interact with/interact with more: AMAJIKI! I would LOVE to explore that relationship more my GOD. What good outgoing younger sibling and introverted older sibling energy. You just KNOW Kirishima is constantly talking up his upperclassman and Amajiki is wondering if he ate something small enough he could actually shrink. As Fat Gum watches on like a proud father. I also think it'd be interesting to see the advice Amajiki has to offer Kiri. He's one of the Big Three at UA, he's done a lot of stuff! I want to explore that more for SURE.
one (or more) headcanon(s) i have that involve them and one other character: I think it's universally accepted that Mina helps him with dying his hair. It's so simple yet such a good headcanon for them. Being able to take an hour or so once a month (give or take) to sit down, just the two of them, and catch up. Even if they just talk about surface level stuff, they're still strengthening their friendship! and I love that for them! Ochaco is a gym buddy. She was the only one who understood his room, I can totally see them getting along like that. Kind of the same as Mina; they just get together and hang out! He spots her, she spots him, and they talk! By graduation her squat max is at least 50 pounds more than Kiri's and he couldn't be prouder. Deku levels of knowledge about Crimson Riot. Go ahead, ask him anything. He knows, can site the source and show you the news clip if you want!
