Posted this onto Twitter (so I'll be copying and pasting) buut:
Someone pointed out that the students have their hero costume designs on the microphones, checked EraserMic and they have a part of their costumes on the microphones too-
I like both of them but Mic's is cool, it resembles the studs on his jacket and shoulder pads. Aizawa's are his goggles of course so that's so cool. I'm in love man.
Emergency: Help my family survive and start a new life
I am Hazem Shawish, and I am trying to save my family from this war.
We live in Gaza, where we face significant challenges due to the current situation.
My family consists of 11 members, including my mother, two daughters, four sons, and three children.
Every day is a struggle for survival, and each night is filled with prayers for a brighter tomorrow. Yet, amidst the darkness, we hold onto hope, seeking solace in the belief that one day, the clouds of war will dissipate, and we will find the peace and stability we so desperately crave. Until then, we endure, clinging to the threads of our resilience, and nurturing dreams of a safer, healthier future for us all.
Our home, once a sanctuary of love and warmth, was destroyed, displacing us into a life of uncertainty and fear. The laughter of my children and my sister's daughters, once the music of our home, is now silenced by the echoes of conflict. They deserve a future where education and happiness are not just dreams but realities.
Our entire neighborhood In Gaza Before and after
we had a supermarket that helped as to live and earn money, but it was bombed and we have nothing now, pic of our supermarket
But our challenges are not just physical; they are emotional and psychological. The loss of my father and the imminent threat to my brother's life weigh heavily on us. My mother, who has endured so much, faces the unimaginable fear of losing another child. For her, for my brother, for my children, and for the future of our family, we seek a new beginning.
We dream of a place far from the sounds of war we want to be safe with my family we dream to move to Egypt to save ourselves
This journey is more than a physical relocation; it is a quest for dignity, for normalcy, for the very essence of what makes life worth living. We seek to restore what conflict has stripped from us: our home, our health, and our hope.
We turn to you, not just as donors, but as fellow humans who understand the power of compassion and community. Your support, in any form, is a beacon of hope in our darkest times. It represents solidarity and a shared belief in the sanctity of life and the right to a safe and peaceful existence.
for children to pursue education and a life unshaded by conflict, and for us to honor my father's memory in a land of peace.
However, this dream bears a significant cost, one that is beyond our reach. For each of us to make this journey, to cross borders towards a life of safety and dignity, we estimate the need for at least $5,000 per person. This sum covers the complex tapestry of legal, travel, and initial resettlement expenses.

I am finishing up with my intro post after months of having it in drafts!
I want to put out a few of my new year's resolutions which are not very solid as in if I don't do them, I fail my resolutions. They're flexible:
1. Start posting more in general (art, doodles, rambles) to all of my social media accounts.
2. Draw more and be okay with having unfinished work especially if I'm not feeling it
3. Use my new blog @amethystartchive for bigger, finished art pieces
4. Just improve my art somehow. Doesn't have to be a grand improvement but I do want to improve somehow
I hope y'all have a happy new year and follow me on this weird journey for 2024! I will probably post something tonight for once but only if it's done unless I have a small doodle to include, then I'll add that.
how it feels to have no social media presence as an artist
Also if y'all wanna ask things about the AU, you totally can! I'm down to talk about it all sorts cuz it occupies most of my brain space rn
I need everyone to pretend like Hizashi's hair grew out too much cuz I somehow forgot his undercut on that drawing and I can't fix it now. Ohh my god how did I do that
I love his big ass forehead
Rq I'm gonna cross post (this will make it's way onto Bluesky eventually I PROMISE FOR THOSE OF YALL WHO ARE PROBABLY STARVING FOR YAPPING-) this here so y'all can see the reason why I named Present Mic/Yamada Hizashi "Ear Piercer" in my Villains AU.
This came from my strawpage hence why I'm putting the screenshot here:
Answer -
Quick tldr: Villain!Mic's name in this AU is Ear Piercer! He uses it as a means of tricking his enemies into not knowing what his quirk is.
(Below is my ramble because I cannot shut up sorry anon!) so for those that wanna hear the long one, it's under the cut!
Long answer:
My villain!Mic's name is actually Ear Piercer! For people that haven't heard of him, the name serves as a means of throwing them off of his quirk.
Cuz some people think "oh Ear Piercer? Must be a dude that has a quirk that physically pierces something" not "Ohhh he pierces people's ears with Voice".
He thought it was obvious at first because he also wears a mask similar to his directional speaker but apparently not!
The first like several fights when he announced himself, some heroes and villains prepared by covering their faces or other body parts instead of covering their ears like they would had he announced himself as Present Mic.
He uses this to his advantage of course.
Also he chose his name like he did with Present Mic. He wanted something related in some way to his quirk without calling himself what his quirk is.
Jirou was a fan of present mic growing up, I don’t make the rules.
Warmups between starting the Mic chibi again. Yes that is Shinsō in a dumpster. And no Zashi is not related at all to the thought process he is just there.
