I'm curious, in The New Day's AU, what traumas do the parents/older siblings project onto their surprise adopted kids?
Oof this answers probably going to be long and all over the place so bare with me please.
Shigaraki: Shiggy has abandonment(All his family dying then later Afo leaving him) and trust issues(Finding out that the heroes he loves so much are the reason his father abused him and later failing to be saved by those same heroes.). He fears his last real piece of family being taken away from him so much that he'd do anything to keep Izuku safely contained at his side even if it means hurting his little brother. The heroes would do much worse to him in his mind.
Dabi: To me Dabi has a severe inferiority complex and so so much rage from being beaten abandoned ignored and replaced by Endeavor. That even though he loves Shouto there's a mean little part of him that likes seeing his father's masterpiece so weak and utterly dependent on him. He's never going to let Shouto grow to be stronger than him and despite being kinder than his father Dabi is still just as manipulative and possessive. He's never going to let any of his family become more powerful than him or be away from him ever again.
Hawks: Hawks went through so much neglect and abuse from not only his bio parents but also the commission. He's lacked any sort of familial bond for so long that even though he is using the same tactics used to train him on Tokoyami he feels its not wrong because its still better than what he went through. Finally being able to freely partake in his avian biology and using those same instincts against Tokoyami is cathartic for him. He's indulging in all the things he was never allowed to do/have even if its against Fumikage's will.
Twice: Jin grew up a poor kid with neglectful parents he honestly thought he was doing Ochaco a favor by taking her in. He assumed she was in the same boat and thought he could provide her a better life. He's not trying to be malicious he just can't stop projecting his and Himiko's experiences onto her. He thinks her wanting to go back is self-destructive/self-harming behavior and will stop at nothing to end it.
Toga: Poor bby has so many issues from her parents she couldn't help but project that onto Ochaco. She can't see parents doing their best despite their poor finances all Toga sees are people trying to exploit/use their daughter. Himiko just wants to give Ochaco everything she ever missed out on and more even if that's not what Ochaco wants. She wants her to be cherished and loved even if her idea of love is a bit...skewed.
Spinner: Poor Spinner faced so much discrimination in his life he thought Asui would genuinely happier with him. He thought she would be happy to live with someone who has experienced the same type of discrimination.
Why does no one ever talk about the jealousy/insecurity that comes with writing fanfic. I see writers be able to whip out 20k fics in a week like its nothing when I struggle to even get something 5-10k out every 1-2 months. Seriously some writers have put out 20-30 fics out this year and I only put out 7. I feel so dumb and often wonder why can't my brain just work like theirs? Like I try my best but I just feel like my fics aren't up to par with everyone else's. Does anyone else relate to this or am I just being insecure?
me 250 words into a chapter: Gosh, how am I gonna make this at least 2500 words?
me at 6193 words on accident: Uh
Do any of you have any ideas for a good ending for Puppy Love? I already know how the bad ending is going to go cause I'm me duh but I'm really stuck on the happy. Like every time I try to even attempt to write a happy ending I just keep drawing a blank.
Any ideas/suggestions would be helpful thank you!
Do you mind if I use your Overhual prompt to write my own fic? I promise I'll credit you!
Oh course I don't mind if you guys use any of my ideas! You don't have to credit me either I've never cared about stuff like that. Since even if we are working with the same idea I doubt we'd ever write the same thing. Especially since I usually end up scraping or changing a lot of the stuff from my original mock ups! I would love to see what you end up writing though if you do end up using it!(tag me or send a link in my dm <3). I hope you have fun with it!
Currently experimenting with fluff and time travel. We shall see how it goes.
Hehe alternative version of Trapped in Heaven if the league wasn't insane lol.
Toga, in disguise: Why do you want to be a hero?
Toga, internally: All their answers have been so shallow. Glory. Fame. Misguided desire to help people. To beat up villains. Blah, blah, blah.
Ochako: I am poor.
Toga, in disguise: …sorry, what?
Ochako: Money is exchanged for goods and services. I have no money.
Toga, in disguise: You-
Ochako: At UA, we get three meals a day! So it’s really working out for me!

Two weeks later…
Ochako: I keep finding random money everywhere! I must be lucky lately!
Deku: Why is it stained red?
Ochako: Don’t question the money gods.
Can I just say that Kalego works so well as a teacher because he isn't just a mean teacher, he genuinely cares about his students and wants what's best for them? And also I like how Jazz secretly wants his classmates to look up to him and call him Big Brother ( I HC Jazz as being one of the oldest in the Misfit Class)
Right!!! I love Kalego, he reminds me of Aizawa! And the Jazz thing is sooo adorable. He just wants to be the misfits dependable older brother since his real big brother sucks so much. I think Iruma and Lied fighting over who is the little brother is so cute too! <3
I think that you hit the nail on the head regarding Spinner and Magne’s scent profiles.
Magne does seem to smell like Chocolate tbh. Either that or Victoria’s Secret perfume lol, maybe even bubblegum
Hawks would probably smell like old spice, maybe pine or citrus. Probably something not too overpowering, but something that leaves an impression
Compress DEFINITELY smells like gingerbread and cinnamon, look at him!
Spinner would probably smell like jolly ranchers or Monster energy, he just looks like it
-I think I'll keep that one then! For Magne I was just thinking of something mature and lady like.(The chocolate cherry idea came from this one ice cream that's popular with older women called Cherry Garcia. My mom loves that stuff. So since Magne is like the mom of the group I thought it might fit her.)
-For Spinner yeah I might change it to like something to do with energy drinks and sweets. Since for him I had no idea and just googled what fruit can geckos eat? And pineapple and honey dew popped up lol.
-Definitely Compress was one of the easiest. Idk he just gives off like spicy fall bakery vibes~
-Ooh pine would be good maybe with something woodsy like cedarwood might be cool for Hawks
