Tomura Shigaraki doesn't just use newspapers to check for hero news. I think he also does the daily crossword puzzles religiously.
He's pretty good at them in general, but of course there are occasional times he gets stuck and reads the clues out loud. Kurogiri will offer his own insights and guesses, or even just be a soundboard to bounce ideas off of.
Shigaraki: The edge of a path...
Kurogiri: A sidewalk, perhaps?
Shigaraki: No, it doesn't work with 15 down...
It's a bit of an unconscious bonding session for them, but even then it's mostly a solitary activity for Shigaraki.
As more people join the League, frequent the bar at all hours of the day - including Shigaraki's crossword hour - the more of a group activity it becomes.
Toga and Twice lean over his shoulders and throw their best (ridiculous) guesses or heckles his way. Although, Toga as a teenager is able to point out some of the more ultra-modern pop culture references that go a bit over even Shigaraki's head. Twice knows a lot about sports teams and old syndicated tv shows.
Compress also usually takes a peak, he's actually pretty helpful though, especially with the theater and classical literature clues. Although he's a bit show-boaty about it.
Spinner, sitting at the bar right next to Shigaraki, is also pretty good, but very self-conscious about his guesses. Usually just mutters his answers under his breath and gets really embarrassed when they're correct and the rest of the League praises him for it.
Dabi of course gripes about it all being a waste of time...
...all while piping in to solve that one 13 letter word that's had them all stumped for the last twenty minutes.
Shigaraki insists at first that they're all being way too loud, they're all too obnoxious, he misses when he was able to do these puzzles alone in peace.
But slowly, as the days pass, he stops complaining. Stops working on them at whatever open hour he desires, and starts waiting until the bar is full to turn to the games page.

It’s hard to describe what it feels like to lose everything. To wake up and realize your entire life has been erased.
But here we are—$1,580 raised so far.
It’s a small step in a long journey, but it proves that there are still people who care. That hope isn’t completely gone.
💙 Please, if you can, help us move forward. Every share, every donation, every kind word helps us hold on.
🙏 If this post reaches you at the wrong time or feels intrusive, I sincerely apologize please ignore it .
From the bottom of my heart, thank you. ❤️
I need people to stop making Primo nice. The dude is unhinged and evil and terrible and THAT'S WHY I LOVE HIM.
Any smut involving the man should include him killing the other person like a preying mantis.
His first suggestion to his brothers when they come to him for advice is to sell their soul to the Devil even further to make the issue go away. The next suggestion is murder.
He eats nosey reporters who stray too close to the Ministry. He hunts people for sport.
The reason Imperator had him specifically killed was NOT because she was worried about him getting up in arms about Copia's assention, it was because they were running out of cover-up money for his numerous crimes
Nihil should be baffled as to how he produced such offspring.
Hello? Is anyone out here? Can anyone here me? Where is my crazy evil old man?
this is my pre-gaming for watching this show. dipping a metaphorical toe into the fandom. i haven't read the books either.
there are 3 vampires: lestat, louis, and armand
armand's name may or may not be amadeo?
lestat and louis had a daughter named claudia
claudia was unhinged (which is fair. i would be too if i was stuck at age 15 forever)
claudia had a girlfriend named madeline
claudia and madeline died together (without even having kissed each other. true love? sapphic teenagerism? perhaps both)
claudia's death caused lestat and louis to break up after like a century of dating or something
armand killed claudia?
there was a play involved in claudia's death...? i am incredibly confused about this one
either it was a play or an execution
the love triangle seems convoluted
armand is in love with louis and lestat is also in love with louis and lestat & armand have definitely also fucked each other
louis should just get the hell out of there actually. free my boy louis !!!
the interview is being done by daniel molloy who is bi (?) and definitely into that kinky shit
daniel molloy fucked either louis or armand in his youth (during the 80s maybe?). possibly he fucked both. the human pet of the marriage
daniel's memories got messed with to... forget fucking the vampires? idk. p sure armand did it though
that seems to be the consensus for most things in this show
armand did it.
claudia died? armand did it. daniel's memory got wiped? armand did it. louis stubbed his toe? armand probably did it.
armand needs to be sent to vampire jail this guy's a menace
also lestat had a midlife crisis after louis left him for armand and became a rockstar. i hope they release his songs on spotify as marketing. i wanna hear it
BONUS: lestat's album flops? armand did it.
anyway now daniel is old and interviewing armand and louis in dubai?
armand eats suicidal ppl?
daniel causes armand and louis' marriage to fall through
that's louis' 2nd failed marriage
surprisingly not his fault either time i think
armand turns daniel into a vamp
this is signficiant because armand has never turned anyone into a vamp
armand is going to fuck that old man
that old man has kids apparently
and swore someone out on live tv
BONUS 2: daniel got turned into a vampire? armand did it.
seriously what the hell is armand's problem (said affectionately. i have a feeling he's gonna be my fav when i watch)
does lestat know daniel?
claudia may or may not return from the dead
if she does i'll blame that on armand too
is armand french or not? he lives in dubai. has a french accent (?) but also not.
lestat is french. louis and claudia are american.
surprisingly, the americans are the nicest of the bunch. rare american W
also can lestat fly? did he throw louis from like... a 4 story height? ppl on twitter were mad abt it like last year
are there any other characters in this show except the ones i've named. it's been 2 seasons. 6 characters cannot be all there is.
Completely agree
I miss these two…
You know what I can't stop thinking about?
How long did Hawkmoth intend on leaving his face in her palm? Like, she obviously pulled away first. GABE, HOW LONG WERE YOU PLANNING ON SOAKING IN THE LOVING WARMTH OF HER TOUCH !?
Sometimes I like to tell myself that he was surprised at how fast she pulled away.
When we look at it frame by frame:
You can clearly see that he
a) has his eyes closed the whole time. An indicator of being in the moment and sternly concentrating on it
b) even though Mayura is pulling away and forces him to loosen his hold on her, his head remains in the same position
(Don't get me started on how he continues to hold her even though she signalled that she could stand on her own. And her hand above his heart better be some serious foreshadowing)
Nathalie, darling, I love you. But do you even know what chance you might have missed there!? He MELTED into you! Unconsciously starved of physical attention and you pull away so soon 🙃
I feel like a fake fan because I still can’t tell them apart… I’m sure that if I dedicate any actual effort to learning who each one is, I’ll be right as rain, but so far I have no clue.
Keeping this for future reference.
Some people had questions for the new era about how to tell the ghouls apart. So I made a handy flow chart! I hope this helps (:
This is so cool. I love seeing fanart for sitcoms, it’s great - especially older ones.
Reblogging for Richmond being dramatic in the background. He is everything I want to be as a goth. Fabulous.
