he sleepy

valid but uh dabihawks..!

Just a friendly reminder that Horikoshi always intended for Tomura and Touya to be the closest thing to soulmates/eachother’s identical parallel. Their thoughts and the reasonings? Practically the same. They’ll tear themselves apart just for a shred of validation; a plea for someone to see them, even as they destroy the others around them. Who cares is innocents get hurt, right? In the end, the result will be far more valuable than a couple of stranger’s lives.

Dabi’s entire philosophy is quite literally to burn everything around him into ash, including himself and Endeavour, all to liberate himself and others from the false shackles of hero society. This ideology *perfectly* coincides with Tomura, who not only wants to carve out a place in this dejected world for all of his followers, but to also liberate and destroy. Even as children their ideologies would have agreed with one another, which is, “Why should my father’s limitations on me restrict who I am? I just want to be free.”

The meaning behind their names. Tenko ( 転弧) & Touya ( 燈矢); Tenko’s name has the kanji with the meaning “bow” in it. and Touya’s name has the kanji with the meaning “arrow” in it. Hand in hand. Another interesting fact of their names is that 燈(Tō) means "lamp", or "light”, and 転 (Ten) means "turn", or "revolve”, which could signify the instinctive nature of humans (or Tenko himself?) to ‘revolve’ around light (or Touya’s fire/heat in a metaphorical sense).

If we also want to talk metaphorical, ‘light’ could be used to describe the lightheartedness of Touya’s character before Enji destroyed him at the seams, and we know that as a child, Tenko was a loving, empathetic child, attracted to ‘light’ (the softness and kindness of others). He played games with rejected children, defended them, and acted as a ‘hero’ in his own way. This parallel of Touya needing a savior and Tenko readily taking in others who need it, is very interesting to see, especially when we literally see this acted out later on in the LOV!

One more theory I have…now hear me out…also alludes to their name meanings. 矢 (Ya) means "arrow”…but 弧 (Ko) means "arc," indicating a curved path or trajectory. Now, arrows typically travel in a straight line or path when shot. Except for when they’re deemed, “defective.” You know where I’m going with this. It’s almost a completed story with those two characters. A defective arrow that lead a curved path, all because of a manufacturing/crafting issue. Sorry if that hit you hard, me too.

I’m so delusional about them. It’s totally okay.

absolute territory

awhh my heart

Dabi Color Trauma

I was thinking about what Dabi's favorite color would be and realized this man has at least a little bit of trauma from like every fucking color.

Red? Fire. Could be from him burning in the forest or just from his dad existing. Same could be said for orange and probably yellow too. Honestly that entire spectrum of color is probably a minefield. Not to mention his hair used to be red too.

White? His hair. Again. Only this time it's a physical manifestation of what's wrong with his quirk and why his father dismissed him and never looked his way.

Blue? Sure his own fire is now blue but like, his eyes. Or more specifically the fact he has his dads eyes. Eyes that he wanted nothing more than to just look at him as a kid only to see them every time he looks in the mirror.

Green? This one is probrably the lowest without being a nonissue completely what with him burning in a forest. Honestly if he sees the right shade of green he might think it's leaves and that he's in a forest and then he's in the forest and he's waiting for his dad but his dad never came and he's burning again why is he burning again he shouldn't be burning again-

Purple is in the same boat of green but this one is one he owns what with it being his scars and literally inescapable so he takes this color trauma by the horns and makes it his.

Now what does that leave for Dabi's wardrobe? Black. And with black comes white 'cause while Dabi may have trauma he also has the fashion sense of an edgy rebellious teenager 'cause that's exactly what he is (trapped as because he never got to grow up I cry). Then he goes all in on the white because he's a dramatic mother fucker and trauma can go stuff itself he needs to work here.
