What do you think Shouto will do in this final next? I hope he isn't sidelined for Endeavor again like in the first war..
A thousand dollars question, isn’t it?
Shouto, for better or for worse, has had his own development arc, that has been mostly that of ‘becoming the hero of his family’, in stark contrast to Endeavour, who fails on the family and the hero account (as seen in the last chapter).
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As you see portrayed here, Shouto’s theme of breaking through the hate of his family, and the fear of failing at not becoming the way his father is (therefore someone who has made of his mistakes his biggest achievement) is made through the motion of becoming a ‘family hero’ and saving Touya. Perfunctorily, he fulfilled his aim and purpose.
While Touya’s faith and how their relationship will evolve is still under question (not the end result, just the process), I do not think that Shouto will be sidelined when it comes to Touya and the ending of the Todoroki’s family plot line, and not even in the final fight against AfO, as likely Endeavour will be too injured to fight, as he is currently fighting through all his might to fend off AfO or he will just be unable to fight more (interpret that as you wish).
I think that the confrontation between Dabi and Shouto has ended: their values are still at odds, as Touya did not think to get out of it alive, one. And two, he is still stuck on the idea that there is no turning back for him, now and that Shouto’s will to fight him stems from the fact that he is a villain, rather than his brother.
Tumblr media
But, Endeavour being sidelined from what is one of the most important confrontations in his life (namely the one between his ‘masterpiece’ and his ‘failure’) is exactly the point; look at the panel down here, Endeavour is accepting his faith as a burden, an obstacle to his sons’ future: he does not want his sins to colour the path of the youth, and therefore he is leaving Shouto to deal with Touya.
Tumblr media
He is clearly in want to make amends, but that does not mean that atoning or making it up to Touya will be enough, or will get Shouto on the sideline: Touya and Shouto are foils for a reason, and while Endeavour’s arc is centered around them - as their is around him - they are still independently interwoven with other characters (Touya with Tomura and Toga; Shouto with Midoriya and Bakugou; while Endeavour with Hawks).
They are all walking to the same point, and there is no way to tell who will get there first; however, what I can tell is that there would be no point to have Touya and Shouto fight now, only for it to be eclipsed by a Touya/Endeavour fighting encounter. They’re all well in it; but then again, what Touya says here (which is basically a reboot of the Plus Ultra, mind you) is also true: they are the absolute limit, and so who knows what awaits us next.

Wip Weenis Day. ignore how many i’ve missed im on quentin beck and dr strange brainrot
-
When he woke up, he was alone.
He’s not positive how, on either account; after all the failure, screaming 16 year olds, ricocheting gunshots and mild to moderate bleeding, he made his last hoorah- framing Spider-Man, revealing his deepest darkest secret and painting himself as the hero. All the things he was best at, really, and if we was going to die in a municipal buildings bridge in a heap of his own broken drones and ambitions, it would be doing what he did best.
And yet, he was not dead.
Quentin recalls throwing up that final illusion, before those lovely, priceless glasses were stolen from him (after the kid willingly gave them to him, too!) and laying face down in his own misery, and ‘died’ right before the kid. EDITH had helpfully reported Quentin was ‘deceased’, Parker almost crying over his ‘corpse’, and it was all very sweet, Quentin was touched. Despite his attempts to kill the kid, he was fond of him. Under different circumstances, they could’ve even worked together. He was smart.
Not smart enough to realize Mysterio would’ve had contingencies to fake his own damn death, of course.
It was, to be fair, a lucky thing those functions even still worked- Parker busted his helmet up pretty well. Along with literally everything else and all his plans, but oh well, he’s recovered from worse!
He’s made his bed, nice and tucked with a mint on top. He’s made the worlds most recognizable superhero (second only to Ironman) number one public enemy, murderer of the beloved, brand new up and comer, Mysterio.
What a tragedy.
Back to his current circumstance, he’s currently laid out on the floor of some empty room. Linoleum floors, concrete walls and popcorn ceiling, now with a hole in it- that might’ve been him. Tables stood in threes with chairs tucked in, ready for a conference or secret meeting. Quentin, currently, was laid out in the center of one such table. Wooden, else it would have broken under the weight of one whole jackass.
Which is what he was.
He had made some missteps on his path to greatness- he sees them in broad colors, now, no projections needed. He groans, partially from complete frustration and mostly from his probable broken bones and definite gunshot wounds. They all felt fairly superficial, which was one bonus on this safari shit pile of a day, otherwise he’d have likely been dead before he woke up. Lucky him.
Quentin moans, again, as he rolls over, debris of ceiling, walls, glass and dust poof off of him in a cloud of asthma mixture, which he’d left behind in his youth, thankfully. His suit was fairly trashed, which, ok, it obviously needed some god damn improvements anyway.
He can’t even breathe for a minute, the pain flares up with such vengeance- almost as revenge for his somewhat peaceful time unconscious.
Quentin could very well black out again- who's to say, really, but what finally brings him squarely to consciousness is this- sizzling, vaporous sound, something like the faintest smell of heat and ozone. He leans up the most his battered body will allow him at that moment, the most resigned part of himself wondering if someone the building caught fire and was about to rain rubble and peril yet again upon him, but instead sees a sparking, mind bending portal open out of thin air, a doorway carved into reality. If Quentin hadn’t spent so much time with illusions, he might have thought he was hallucinating- although, they aren’t such terribly different things.
And then someone steps through.
From Quentin’s perspective, he’s out of sight- this portal opened in the hallway into another wide room, giving him only half the picture, but the man who steps through is mumbling something inaudible, a great, red cape fluttering behind him. He can see black hair, streaked with white at the temples, and hands that gesture strangely, before they still and the portal fizzles out of existence.
The man seems to notice the general hostility of the air quality, and starts coughing, and trekking through the rubble, down the hall and past Quentin’s eyesight.
Quentin collapses quietly back onto the table, and asks himself some questions.

my stranger
hangs where the plaster cracked and the ribs of the house show. He’s the only stranger I can afford, a middle-aged man in a plaid shirt smiling for an artist. Nothing to me, but still I hang him in the hallway and call him Dad. Of course, visitors have doubts. I know they know his hair’s too light, the eyes too blue. I win them over by recalling our fishing holidays, how dad slit the belly of a rainbow trout, and out slipped a diamond ring for me. A perfect fit. Dad was handy. He met my mother when she broke down outside the Camden Palace, and changed her tyre without a jack. He made us a sherbet playhouse, we licked its walls to nothingness. He taught my brother harpsichord. Now he’s international. You may have heard him on the radio. That’s a self-portrait. He never lived to paint us all. ‘What a terrible loss,’ visitors sigh. I lead them into a living room, and whisper, ‘Yes.’

This seems like the same person who has been spamming that take around reddit as well. They've changed it slightly as it's always Touya uses PB to kill himself and Todoroki and Iida rescues Todoroki but apart from that it's exactly the same.
I cannot believe that some people have the sheer courage to post takes like this and the absolute idiocy of people who spur this kind of takes on. Seriously, do people think? Do they even think?
Because, let’s be honest: it’s a terrible take in itself, but it also seriously neglects canon and the fact that Touya is an unreliable narrator, and that lying to himself is a coping mechanism with which he faces reality. Touya already went through a ‘rebirth’ by means of self harm, and it would not make any sense if Dabi’s ending was the same, because of two simple facts. A. If Horikoshi wanted to kill Dabi/Touya, we would have had a face-off with Endeavour and would have not bothered to develop Shouto’s arc in which he realises how similar he is to his brother and that Touya is what could have been him in case he lacked the community of support he found and B. Horikoshi wants to address the severe trauma and the familiar theme in a way which lets the villain redeem, and have Shouto as his hero’s family before being a hero for others (in contrast to Endeavour, who was a hero for others first, and a father/hero for his family second), while also pointing out how there is no such thing as ‘all hope lost’ and no second chances, and that not everything is black and white. Therefore, there are shades of trauma which creeps into crime, and builds up to feelings of spite and revenge, with a side dish of disregard for the self in view of a goal and the sprinkle of sacrifice that Touya has been making all these years, denying himself the home, the identity, the name he felt did not belong to him anymore.
But then again, this fandom has history of being bigoted and ignorant so I am not surprised, not in the slightest and I am both giddy and afraid of what will happen when we will be at the final (final) stretch.

I’m not sure if you remember but I remember you and a few of your mutuals were arguing with this user called Mikeellee who was arguing with you guys over Shigaraki and Enji’s abuse and they were saying that Shigaraki was wrong about heroes and his rant falls short because Endeavor was a hero who abused his family but returned home to them or something along those lines. Well I scrolled through their account and they ship ShigaDeku(romantically) and also found them on Twitter to where they also ship Dabi with his dad 😭
Good morning, and I vaguely remember something of the sort (it must have been long time ago), but I am not surprised in the slightest. Between incest and underage, they really thought that the worst was Shigaraki being wrong (when he even wasn’t) about heroes? Laughable at best! But then again, it feels like with passing time and chapters, the comprehension of the narrative is declining instead of unfurling into a full-fledged clear picture - because of misinterpretation, therefore it is only to be expected. People enjoy only a determinate amount of things from a thing they read in their bias, so that is how the world spins. Unfortunately so, if I may add.

For the ask pairing game I can see you with Kakashi.
Well, that’s news to me. I think I would thrive on Kakashi’s penchant for being a troll and a fun activity would be reading smut together, but also yes. I’d love to be his own secret diary and care for him when he just fails to. Also, no mask privileges? Great.

Random ask...Which houses from Harry Potter would you put your favorite characters from BNHA and Naruto?
So! I’m going to do my Top 5 for both, because otherwise it’d get somehow messy, but thanks for the ask!
Gryffindor: Uchiha Itachi, Hatake Kakashi, Bakugou Katsuki, Midoriya Izuku, Uchiha Obito (Gryffinpuff).
Hufflepuff: Twice.
Slytherin: Senju Tobirama (definitely a Slythercrow), Uchiha Madara, Todoroki Touya, Shigaraki Tomura.

I was hoping GH only asked out HE like that to maybe take attention off of the whole reveal she did on the livestream. Like teenagers love to gossip, so give them something else to gossip about
Actually you might not be very far off. It certainly did the trick, but what bothers me the most is how GH seemed serious about it (which, yay and also yay for college), and the way they made it seem as if he was trying to also get SJ to move and confess his feelings (DJ as well). So maybe GH just took the ball in his court and saw the chance of getting some pressure of the livestream of HE’s shoulders, which certainly was great - but I also wonder whether it might be to show something else? Fingers crossed and awaiting for tomorrow’s episode it is!
