So I dunno if you’ve already spoken about this or not (I’ve desperately tried to catch up on your timeline but MAN there’s a lot of asks lately lol), but what’s your opinion of Gran Torino? Because I see a lot of BNHA fans absolutely roasting him and I don’t really get why? I actually really like him as a character, and was surprised to see so many people hating on him, especially during the current arc in the manga. Sure, he roughed Deku up a bit during his internship thing, but it wasn’t any worse than what he goes through at school (it actually seemed like a bit of a break in comparison, really). But yeah, just curious on your thoughts??
Yeah we’ve been on a roll with answering shit lately.
Gran is, in my opinion, kind of in the same category as Recovery Girl. Like obviously a decent hero in their day (motivations aside), obviously have a lot of information and skills still to be passed on to the next generation, but they both absolutely have poor execution on a lot of things.
I am, in general, not fond of how most of Izuku’s personal teachers treat him. But I do know that some of the Gran Torino salt seems to focus on his back story and issues with Nana and Gran’s outlook on things.
I’m gonna be real with you though, I don’t really care about him all that much. Like he gets ghosted and the only reason why it would upset me would be if it upset Izuku or All Might. I can take him or leave him.
it's been a while
excerpt ; the daughter of denmark ; chapter ?
“I am here because you are dying. I am here because of your fate.”
“But you said — before, you said if I die. Now you say it is my fate to die?”
The fylgja laughed. It sounded like the ringing of church bells on an early morning. It filled Hamlet with simultaneous joy and apprehension. She did not know why the creature laughed. She did not know what God would ask of her. She knew nothing.
“It is everyone’s fate to die, child. Even the gods, one day, will curl themselves into a grave. But there is a difference between how one ends and how they got there.” The fylgja extended her palms to either side of her, like the statues of the dead in the tombs of Roskilde. One hand held its sword, the other was palm up, empty. “Your fate is both at once. You will die as all men do, but will it be now?”

I’m sorry but I think it’s absurd that men have spent thousands of years writing philosophical essays on how to be a good person all while ignoring and/or actively mistreating women, who are in fact people
I’m gonna focus on Dressage Dragons this November, so prepare for a relentless onslaught of Hot Rich Barn Bitch rivalry!
Or, y’know, radio silence until December. Depending on my spoons.
Some deets about DD!
YA queer urban fantasy - real world with added dragons
Queer rivals-to-friends-to-maybe-more
Dragon riding is basically equestrianism
The sport has a reputation for being populated by spoilt, wealthy young white women (obvs a whole range of folks ride horses IRL, but… there’s a reason for the stereotype, and we’re gonna acknowledge elitism where it exists)
Plot revolves around a competition to gain entry to the most prestigious Draconic Dressage Academy in the world
And a developing wlw relationship between a cruel ambitious heiress and a resentful, ruthless stablehand
No soft lovable MCs here guys sorry Except Fareed, he’s perfect
But lots of character growth all around!
Plenty-o diversity
Set in the UK
Vicious rivalries!
Pranks that get WAY OUT OF HAND!!
Dragons!!! Did I mention the dragons??
