My Problem With The Plf War Is That We Get Little To No Information On The Regiment Advisors

My problem with the plf war is that we get little to no information on the regiment advisors

God, ain't it the truth. I mean, I have a lot of problems with the PLF War, but that was certainly a prominent one. Like, I told myself when Taser Face lightning dude got unceremoniously no-sold by a high-schooler and effortlessly one-two'd by Edgeshot and Midnight that, well, if nothing else, maybe we could assume that all those nameless advisors were there to give the heroes some vaguely significant faces to fight while the named characters with more build-up would escape to have more prominent and narratively significant fights at some later point.

But if Trumpet, Geten, and Re-Destro all get off-paneled and arrested, what exactly was the point of the advisors, then? Like, a few of them have escaped, we know, but other than the one who killed Midnight, there's no particular reason to be invested in the fights with them later. It's not like they even got portrayed as a real threat, for all that they were billed as "stronger than the average hero."

Mind, Edgeshot of the Top Ten Billboard Ranking is by no measure an "average hero," but what does that matter, when you're not going to let any of them fight and beat an "average hero"?

Also too, dramatic tension in your fight scenes aside, I continue to be irked that we got all these characters that the League had three and a half months to bond with, only for it to come to nothing. And look, three months doesn't sound like a lot, but the League themselves had only been together for two months when the Shie Hassaikai arc kicks in, Magne gets killed, Compress maimed, and this pisses off the rest of the League so much they scuttle an alliance and maim the man responsible in return.

The League isn't even together for all of those two months! Their early meetings are much more sporadic; they all split up to lay low for a while after Kamino. Three months with the people at the mansion would be much more prolonged contact! I'm forever salty that the fandom just assumes--with little canonical reason to do otherwise--that those fourteen weeks just meant nothing, that not one single League member got invested enough in the cause they were building, the people they were seeing in regular meetings, to spare them so much as a thought.

I can only hope we'll get more of them back later; given their focus on Re-Destro, I find it unbelievable in the extreme that any number of escaped advisors would just let the man stay in prison--not after having lost Destro to prison the same. (Assuming, of course, that Geten hasn't hijacked the contents of an ice machine to break them out already.)

Thanks for the ask!

Goodddd I LOVE this song for ouma so much I cant even express. I find it so fitting to his demeanor and it's such a fun one to listen to too. There's this part toward the end where the chorus starts to get desperate and he sings "am I really that bad" in such distress then recovers to his badass demeanor in the same note and ITS SO GOOD !

Semi regular reminder that

James Bond is trans.

The main characters are all patriots. Not nationalists. Not loyalists. Patriots. They put the people before the nation or the government.

Sherlock has explicitly said he is not into women.

Mary is insanely perceptive and great at deduction and reasoning to the point she impressed Sherlock.

John Watson is a ladies man but simps like a mfer for Mary.

All three Moriarty brothers are deeply disturbed individuals with Louis being the most stable yet second most ruthless.

Albert shows signs of deep depression and OCPD.

Moran and Moneypenny are incredible and dynamic characters.

Sherlock and William are massive simps for each other.

While there aren't many women in the series owing to the lack of women in the original medium, the women that ARE in the story are all badasses.

The treatment of material in the story, particularly given the era it is set is, is very progressive. From the way mental health is handled (without demonizing the person but by getting them to work on themselves) to Sherlock growing to actually respect women through Irene and getting Moran to accept Bond into the team as well as see him as a man. Yes, people would not have been this progressive at the time but team Moriarty are literally a group of social misfits and outcasts fighting against an oppressive, discriminatory system and are all about found family. That's very lgbtq+ of them.

Edit- discreetly adding an edit here to let you know this is about yuumori, I'm so sorry for all the confusion.

My bad! (tノω\t)

MHA ACTOR AU HEADCANNONS

is it four in the morning? ya. do i haven requests i gotta get done? ya. will that stop me? no.

first of all, the main ensemble cast of MHA gets along so well, but what many people don’t know is that while filming the first few episodes the original casting choice for Aizawa had to drop the show entirely due to family issues. Thankfully Aizawa didn’t show up much in the first few episodes, so many of the shots he was in could easily be refilmed and edited in after they had recast the actor, which was stressful.

After the family issues subsided the man who was originally going to play Aizawa still got to feature on the show as Yokumiru Mera, aka the man who runs the provisionary licensing exams.

A lot of the student actors can relate and share some personality traits with their characters, however it is more of a challenge for more of the outlandish characters, such as Mineta, Iida, Bakugo, etc.

ā€œWith [Mineta], you have to wrap your sense of reality. You gotta have an open minded view, and find something, anything that you can relate to yourself. For example, when I was younger I often valued my self worth on the approval of others, and Mineta kinda does that too, in his own way.ā€

ā€œI’ve always been the type of kid to bend the rules, so Iida admittedly came as a challenge. I always saw rules as limitations, where Iida sees them as guide lines for success, but even that world view begins to shift after the Stain Arc— which is probably my personal favorite arc, by the way—. He walks the fine line between comedic relief and a serious character, which is probably what I love most about him.ā€

ā€œI’m not gonna lie, I wasn’t the nicest kid in elementary. I bullied some kids. I’m not proud, but it definitely helped me in terms of figuring out just who Bakugo is. People put down others because they feel low themselves. They want to level the playing feild, make people feel like shit cause they feel like shit. Bakugo can come off as arrogant but he’s pretty insecure when you think about it. Pushing around Deku, calling his classmates extras or ā€˜creative’ nicknames, he does it not necessarily because he doubts his own ability, but because he’s scared that what he has to offer won’t end up being good enough. He’s powerful, sure, but is he most powerful?ā€ ā€œDo you think that keep him up at night.ā€ ā€œ[Laughs] Maybe, I don’t know. He needs his beauty sleep though, so I hope not.ā€

The cast shares a bunch of inside jokes with one another, their personal favorite and longest running gag is the ā€œAizawa Smileā€, which is basically the smike you made for your first grade picture day.

They’ll be shooting lines back and forth at one another and when someone blanks, they’ll slowly creep their mouth up into this horrendous smile

Iida and Mina do it the most, followed closely behind by Denki and Aoyama.

Speaking of Aoyama, he absolutely hates his utility belt

It’s so heavy!

And lowkey v itchy

not fun

Also, Aoyama wasn’t originally French, but after nonchalantly using french words in conversation, the creative team was like ā€œthis mans is onto something.ā€

The makeup process?

Awful

Mina and Koda have it worst, but Jiro and Hagakure don’t have much fun either.

While Hagakure doesn’t have to paint her body green, she does have to wear a giant body sock, which is equally, if not more annoying since breathing can be hard as shit to do in that thing.

ā€œAt first I thought her quirk was a thing she could turn on and off, ya know, like everyone else, but apparently not! I learned that the kard way...ā€ ā€œ[Laughs] I still remember your face! ā€˜I gotta wear this for how long?!ā€™ā€ ā€œ[Stifling Laughter] Oh yeah, well I’d like to see you try. Let’s swag, I’m Ashido, you’re Hagakure.ā€ ā€œOh, you’re on!!ā€

Sadly and for very obvious reasons they could not do that on show

However after countless begs to the coustume crew, they let Mina try on Hagakure’s body suit and do some typical action stunts in it.

Mina’s never complaining about the makeup again.

You can not breathe in that thing!

Todoroki’s scar is partially real, althought how he got it was completely different.

ā€œOk, this is embarrassing, so I was cooking with my mother when I was about 7 or 8, and we were boiling eggs. The phone rang, so she told me she’d be back and to watch the eggs. The eggs started to make some weird sounds so I tried to check up on the eggs, but since i was short, my way of checking was by tilting the put over. A good chuck of it actually splashed around my eye and not on it, but I guess it looks cooler with a full 1/4 of my face burnt. Sorry I didn’t get it right the first time [Laughs].ā€

His hair color is a dark brown, He wears a wig, but the heterchromia is real.

People have told him he looks like Zuko from Avatar and he humbly accepts the compliment every time.

He’s a big ATLA fan.

But he’s a cloest fan.

Sato is actually a novice/going on advance baker and chef.

The stuff he makes is pretty good, but it often takes him more than one attempt to het the recipe right.

Everyone loves it when he just pops on set w a bunch of goodies.

Momo in particular

Cause like

girl can’t cook

but she tries!!

Her and Sato actually became pretty close because of this.

Although no one will eat what she makes

No one can stomach it.

Mineta and Aoyama tried once and they almost got food poisoning.

Sero is actually insecure about having pointy elbows irl so playing Sero was pretty sweet.

He’s also very quiet.

Like you wouldn’t know he was there unless you’re looking for him.

It’s not cause he’s shy, the boy just doesn’t like vocalizing his thoughts

Or more of he doesn’t know how to.

Meanwhile, Shoji can be such a big chatterbox

Basically Midoriya but his mind hops from one topic to the next.

He’ll be in an interview answering a question about how he feels his character is being developed and what he wishes for his character in the future but then he’ll start talking about his favorite villians in the show and fun spoilery moments he can’t wait to see on the big screen and stfu Shoji you’re ruining the show >:( don’t say spoils!!

Shoji was born w a cleft lip, and he used to be insecure about it when he was younger but like...

fuck it, y’know??

Kaminari can actually be as stupid as his character at times

not that he means too

it’s mostly him just misplacing things he either

A. Just had in his hands

B. Are still in his hands

C. He passed off to someone else two minute ago

He’s literally so sweet though

Like he’s so close w everyone in the cast

and yes

Bakusquad is real

Except the true Bakusquad consists of Bakugo, Mina, Kirishima, Kaminari, Uraraka, Iida, and Hagakure

Which shocks no one after they released that one episode w all the behind the scenes footage cause they are all so competitive

They have so many miniscule challenges and whatnot going on

But let it be known that the Bakusquad isn’t like some sort of super elite group

They are just the ones who are always trying to one up eachother

Selfies happen all the time

Everyone w Everyone

Mid-makeup selfies

Post-shoot selfies where everyone looks and feels like a wreak

Script reading selfies

Cuddle selfies

Many of the casts memebers will just sorta

cuddle eachother

and it’s okay

sometimes you just need it

And it helps fuel the shipping wars

No one takes sides except on Toshinko

Everyone ships Toshinko

People just want Midoriya to have an active father figure in his life and whoops now he’s a legitimate father figure in his life haha

It’s sort of a joke ship, sort of a real thing??

Like when fans ask ā€œWhat’s your favorite ship??ā€ Or ā€œWhat ship do you want to see become canon?ā€ The answer is always defaulted to Toshinko.

The actors of Toshi and Inko are also married iro so that might be a reason too

Speaking of Toshi!!

He was almost an automatic shoe-in for his role, but they still had to find a guy to play his buff ā€œalter egoā€, All Might.

Which lead to them hiring his cousin, who was originally a full-time bathing suit model.

Eh, he had time to spare though.

Toshi and All Might are such a vibe

They’re the dadsā„¢ļø

Might make more cause honestly i eat this AU up >:)

Emergency cleaning: Unfuck your whole house in the shortest time possible

So, your landlord/parents/home inspector/favorite movie star is dropping by, and your place is a disaster. You don’t have much time to clean it up. You’re in emergency mode. Let’s get started.

Don’t panic. Panic leads to fear, fear leads to procrastination, procrastination leads to the dark side. You can do this, but you have to stay calm.

Unlike maintenance cleaning, we’re not looking to completely unfuck one space at a time. Instead, we want to decrease the overall mess in stages, spread evenly across the whole area that we’re concerned about. If you think your home is at Level 10 filth, we want to bring the whole thing down to a Level 9, and then down from there. One really clean spot in an otherwise messy home is not going to be helpful here.

Get prepared. You’ll want to shut the computer down (or turn the modem off if you need your computer to play music). Trust me. Get your music going. Gather up trash bags, your vacuum and mop, some rags or paper towel, sponges, and other cleaning supplies. Use what you have on hand. Don’t get distracted running to the store and spending an hour browsing cleaning supplies. A multi-purpose cleaning concentrate or a jug of vinegar will be just fine.

Breaks are very important. Depending on your time constraints, work in 20/10s (20 minutes working, 10-minute break) or 45/15s. But take breaks because otherwise you’re marathoning, and marathon cleaning is no one’s friend. Keep hydrated, don’t forget to eat, and check in with yourself frequently to make sure you’re physically doing OK.

Make your bed. This will be your home base if you get overwhelmed or need somewhere clear to take a break.

Start with the garbage. Going from room to room, throw out anything that is obvious trash. Once you fill a bag, take it out. Repeat as many times as necessary.

Move on to dishes. Gather the dishes from all over your house and bring them to the kitchen. If you can, start them soaking in a sink of hot, soapy water or start loading the dishwasher. After the dishes are all in one place, spend one 20/10 getting started getting them under control.

Now it’s time for your flat surfaces. Countertops, tables, dresser tops, etc. Clear them off and wipe them down. Don’t get distracted in too much sorting and organizing. We’re in crisis mode here. There will be time to get in-depth once this is all done. The same applies to cabinets and closets. Unless you have reason to believe people will be opening closed doors, leave these alone for now.

Attack the floordrobe and shoe pile. Get your clothes either put away or in the hamper. Start a load of laundry if you need to, but keep in mind that laundry and dishes have three steps: wash, dry, and put it away, goddammit!

Get random stuff up off the floors. If something is trash-worthy, throw it away now rather than just move it around a bunch of times. Otherwise, put stuff where it belongs.

Take another 20/10 or 45/15 to catch up on more dishes, if needed.

Head into the bathroom. Pour some cleaner in the toilet bowl, fill the sink with hot water and cleaner, and either spray the tub and shower with cleaner, or fill the tub up with some hot water and add cleaner and let it soak. Put everything away that’s out and shouldn’t be, clean the mirror, counters, and toilet seat. Sweep or dry mop the floor. Wipe down the sink and tub/shower, and give the toilet bowl a scrub. Mop the floor.

Sweep and mop the kitchen floor.

Vacuum everything you can, and sweep everything you can’t.

Walk outside of your house (don’t lock yourself out, please). Walk back in and see what catches your eye first. Go and deal with that.

If you’re being inspected or your landlord is coming in for repairs, spend time on whatever area they’ll be focusing on.

Give the whole place one more once-over and pay attention to anything you’ve missed so far.

It’s an old trick, but if your place is a little funky-smelling, put a pan of water on the stove on low heat and add some citrus or cinnamon or vanilla. Don’t leave it unattended or forget about it.

Take a shower, put on something clean, and eat something.

You can do this. It’s overwhelming, yes, but it is not impossible. You just need to do it. You have a list. You have directions. You have a whole bunch of Internet strangers who have been there before and who are cheering you on. You can do this, but you need to get started.

Why are you still here? GO. START. NOW.

Shihai night he manifested his quirk woke up by falling from the ceiling as his room got lighter

I imagine all around the class 1b dorms there’s connected streaks of black paint on the walls so he can get from place to place in a couple seconds without walking (probably wrote it off as fire safety somehow)

When he was young he couldn’t control his quirk so he couldn’t choose when to go through dark things and instead just fell through. He still does it sometimes and considers it the most embarrassing thing ever. ā€œEven the darkness you have come to know will sink it’s unholy teeth in you,,,ā€

He likes to sleep in black blankets cause,,,then he is, quite literally, the definition of soft.
