okay so you already told us your other monoma pairs, but what are your other izuku pairs? im curious. (my personal fav is tododekuiida,,, they are so,, polyam,,,, i love them)
GUYS. IM SO ASHAMED TO ADMIT I HAVE NO OTHER ROMANTIC IZUKU PAIRS I LIKE. but god do I have so many platonic ones. take them as qprs or as just friendships but like UGH.
I do like izuchaco romantically theyre cute!! But i also love them as wlw mlm friendship<3
so like the main one I have is izuku, mei, shinsou, and monoma as one bigggg friendgroup/qpr because theyre just so. theyre literally bestfriends.
tododekuiida is also really really reallllyyy cute I love them but im like such a big fan of the deku squad like oh my god I'm obsessed with them.
AND CONSIDER MIDORIYA AND DENKI BECAUSE THEY ARE LITERALLY BEST FRIENDS AND HAVE ADHD.
Midoriya, tetsutetsu, kendou, monoma, setsuna friendship is something so necessary as well like. they mean the world to me.
Also aoyama and midoriya friendship because theyre just. yeah.
Shinsou hc: to annoy the fuck out of monoma he uses the worst french possible
What are some monodeku headcanons you have and want to share?
omg..love this ask <3
I've said it before but I'll always hc that they have matching nails always! Usually in the color of the others hair but sometimes they go with pink and black or yellow and purple :)
Monoma is terrified of bugs and midoriya is the type to put them outside
When they become pros and move in together they get a cat :(<3 his name is paper towel
Midoriya has an irregular heart beat so monoma likes to lay his head on his chest and listen to it
The two of them like to do yoga together<3
Midoriya gets an average 3 hours of sleep a night unless he's in the general vicinity of Monoma. Then he gets the normal 8 hours or more.
Midoriya likes to braid Eri's hair and sometimes Monoma will ask to have his hair braided too. Eri usually puts hair clips in Monomas hair while Midoriya braids it.
Every two weeks Monoma and Midoriya take Eri to the zoo (with Aizawas supervision)
Monoma writes long letters because he's not good at verbally expressing how he feels while Midoriya will just lay his head on Monomas shoulder and rant for hours about how pretty he finds Monoma.
khukjnkjb day two of drawing @awkwardmonodekugod hcs <33 this one was sm fun cause I got to rant about monoma <33 if you wanna read the quirk ramble its under the cut!!
"Copy is such a neat quirk, imagine all that you could do with it! Its the perfect quirk for a hero because of how versatile it is. You could always keep a piece of recovery girls hair on you at all times to help people who get injured during a fight. Can you copy all quirks? Like how Tsus' quirk is physical? and does it matter what you touch? like does saliva count?
You're gonna be such a good hero man! I bet you're gonna be really high ranked, especially with how pretty you are. You'll have to let me experiment on you and you're quirk in the future! With permission first, oh man am I so glad I got to meet someone with such a cool quirk! like wow, there are so many things you could do do, I mean, if you become close enough with enough pro heroes and future ones -aka us students- you'll always work well with them and their quirks.
Really relationships with other people are gonna be really important for you. OOOO and!! when you use a civilians quirk you'll probably become their like favorite hero because in way they were helping the heroes! You're gonna have to have a cool tag line, like "saving the day with your help" and point at a camera. okay, I admit that was kinda bad but, just imagine the promotional work you could do! you're quirk is so strong too!
How do you know how to use a quirk directly after you copy it? or do you just make a guess? and on a cellular level, how does it work? because quirks are apart of out cells and each one is individual so, do you just have a second set of cells that changes to match the quirk or does your current set of cells just temporarily adapt? and how does it work when you copy more than one quirk?
plus, wouldn't having more than one quirk like reck your body? so how do you manage that? and do you feel the drawbacks at the level or is it a higher level than the original quirk user? have you ever tried to use two of them at once? what's the most quirks you can copy? the most complex? your quirk is so cool I have so many questions-"
Skypeia robin doodle!
midoriya analysis because im fucking insane and hes insane
Midoriya analysis because I'm fucking insane and he's insane
Ps i won't be covering the movies bc I like to leave them as their own entities
pps this contains spoilers
god okay so we all know that Midoriya has SOME kinda issue because... yk.... he was literally bullied and abused by his peers physically, emotionally, and mentally for all of his formative years and that's gonna FUCK SOMEONE UPPPP
but but but Midoriya so so obvi has a thing for escapism!!!! yeah, his quirk thing started before he was diagnosed as quirkless and then abused, but did you see how intense it got after he was abused??? how that was literally all he spent his time doing and how it was the only thing he was known for?? AND THEN. HE MEETS HIS IDOL WHO CRUSHES HIS LAST HOPE. and then said idol proceeds to try and build up an already destroyed boy (it doesn't work) because THEN we see even more escapism in UA because they make it so clear Midoriya spends so much time training and pushing himself to be a better hero because it's the only way he knows how to be useful and escape away from his reality of believing that's he's really not worth all that he's been given. Btw pls dont say that “midoriya is just ideally heroic he doesn't have a hero complex” this is an analysis for my opinion ty
Midoriya can be viewed as a narcissist for many reasons as well but that is because he's a product of his environment. Honestly there's ways to show midoriya has a hero complex, is a narcissist, has self esteem issues, has a superiority complex, and more. Im slapping midoriya and going “This bad boy can fit sooo many issues it him”
Another btw before you continue reading: I have really bad adhd and halfway through this forgot what I was writing about so my points get super blurry but I just wanted to state it here. I believe midoriya has severe self esteem issues and a hero complex. I can explain why concisely if anyone asks!
Going by arcs now because I need some order to follow and regretfully can't just throw my thoughts about Midoriya at a wall and hope they stick (I will happily just spout nonsense at anyone who wants to listen):
Pre ua-
Most of this I already covered in the above paragraph but I still wanna break down why Midoriya's childhood set him up for a hero complex and a love of escapism. As mentioned before, Midoriya has always had a love for analysis and heroes but it got much more intense after he experienced large bouts of trauma. You can see him isolating himself and getting completely absorbed into his analysis in multiple parts of the pre-UA sections of bnha. His hero complex stems from the fact that there genuinely was no one to save Midoriya. Because he knows what it's like to be alone without help, he takes it upon himself to save people (he basically says this himself too like my god this boy's hero complex is so so clear). Not to mention the fact that his abuser has been called a hero throughout his formative years. like….god….
All might training-
And THEN all might destroys his dream by telling him he can't be a hero then LEAVES. Midoriya has not had a single good personal hero at this point. Like even his own mother doesn’t save him from this blatantly obvious abuse. So midoriya is just like. Left there to evaluate everything being broken in his life when he falls back on his escapism aka he walks to the scene of a hero feet because “[his] feet carried him [there]” ARE YOU KIDDING ME. he is literally doing something that brings him joy on autopilot. As a response to being told he can't do his life long goal by his idol. Following that he sees bakugou in pain and trouble and this is like right when the hero complex forms. The entire ‘feet moved before you can think’ IS NOT A GOOD THING!!!! He has NO self-preservation in this moment. AND THE ALL MIGHT PRAISES HIM FOR IT. literally cementing his hero complex as a ‘positive’ thing and not at all the self destructive thing it actually is.
Following this all might tells midoriya he has to be the next symbol and that he has to be the one to make everyone feel safe. That is NOT a healthy mindset for a child to be in. Here Midoriya is told that he needs to protect everyone and this is where he starts to feel the need to be the one to fix everything, this is where he feels that everything is his fault.
Usj-
Bro just got put into a hugely traumatic situation and did you see how he literally like blacked out when he went to protect Tsuyu? I’d also like to point out that at this point he's been told by all might that his lack of self preservation is a heroic quality. PLus plus plus being put into a situation like this would hurt your brain function so immensely, the adrenaline rush he must be having at this moment.
Sports festival-
Todoroki. Just the entirety of the todoroki thing. Someones gonna go “he was just doing the heroic thing, that makes him hero quality!!” BUT!!! I GUARENTEEEE MIdoriya saw some of himself in Todoroki then. Like, todorokis situation is ‘boy whos in bad situation with no one coming to save him because no one would believe him/step up against the number ½ hero’ and midoriya's situation as a kid was ‘boy whos in a bad situation and no one is coming to save him because no one would believe him and no one wants to help the quirkless kid’. So midoriya obviously took it upon himself to be the one to save todoroki and at this point he's had all mights words drained into him so he probably has taken it upon himself to save everyone in similar situations.
Hero killer-
Speaking of people in similar situations: Iida! Sooo you're probably going “ghost. Iidas situation is NOTHING like midoriyas” and to that i say LET ME EXPLAINNNN because at this point iida has seen so many people be killed by stain that he more than likely believes no one can stop him but iida himself. This situation is ‘things are happening and no one is actively trying to stop it in the way I should, no one is coming to save this situation.’ so iida takes it upon himself and Midoriya sees this and recognizes it because of his own situation.
Final exams-
Bakugou. I have thoughts about this arc. Midoriya has no self preservation here at all. I could quite honestly say I believe midoriya is in some way suicidal. There is no ounce of non hero complex actions here. Midoriya takes it upon himself to save bakugou from failing the entire final exam even if bakugou doesn’t want that. And the their fight afterwards??? Where midoriya is like “youre all I look up to [bakugou]” (side note i hate calling him kacchan)???? WHERE IS YOUR SELF RESPECT MIDORIYA!!! BAKUGOU BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU VERBALLY AND PHYSICALLY FOR YEARS!!!!!!
Hassaikai and Paranormal liberation--
Combining these because during both arcs midoriya shows absolutely ZEROOO self esteem and self preservation. These two arcs are combined because therye basically him on the brink of absolutely losing his shit and fully leaning into the hero complex.
Dark hero (so important r you kidding)-
R you serious rn..this is literally him going ‘no one else is fixing it so I WILL. in a dangerous way this IS the hero complex arc
But it's also the most self centered arc midoriya has had. His entire childhood has taught him to rely on himself and only himself so it's a given that he would only think about himself when anything happens that he needs to take care of as he's the only one who's ever shown to care about himself and others for a large portion of his life. Midoriya is such a complex character but you genuinely can only tell if you look deeper than what bnha has on the surface of it which makes me sad. I’m not here to diss horis writing and world building skills-he's much better at it than me- I just wish he would go deeper into his characters issues than having them fixed in short spurts (momo)
Izuku, exhausted and trying to study:
Bakugo, yelling at Izuku:
Izuku: Kacchan, look at me. Look at me in the eye.
Bakugo: Hah?! What did you just-
Izuku, grabs his shirt collar and brings Bakugo to his face: If you don’t get out of here now, I will take your butcher knife and slice your hands off while you sleep and end your entire hero career. Make a wise choice.
Bakugo:
-
Kirishima, after hearing the story: Oh my God.
Bakugo, petrified: He looked straight into my soul when he said it.
Kendo: why are you being snob with midoriya?
Monoma: i'm playing hard to get
Kendo: why? You're already hard to want
