deep dive character sheet
stolen from: ree + all of toa! tagging: the lovely lass reading this, of course!
NAME: Laslow
BODY
height: 170.18 cm / 5'7
strength ★★★☆☆ (he's lean instead of built yfm)
dexterity ★★★★★ (a dancer after all!!)
health ★★★☆☆ (i like to think he's more susceptible to things like allergies/colds bc of growing up in a literal wasteland rip)
energy ★★★★☆ (fluctuates depending on circumstances like if he's gotten enough sleep/if he's sick)
beauty ★★★★★ (i mean look at him bro roguish good looks isn't just a line and no i'm not biased on this at allllll)
style ★★★☆☆ (he tries!)
hygiene ★★★★★ 
SKILLS
perception ★★★★☆ (he's not half as stupid as he appears, especially when the situation calls for it. he knows when to shut up and be serious.)
communication ★★★★☆ (heart on his sleeve and all that)
persuasion ★★☆☆☆ (technically two and a half stars bc while he can't get beyond a first date, he does get one and he can generally coax a smile out of those he's close to)
mediation ★★★☆☆ (he tries he really really does but sometimes the nonchalant attitude has the opposite effect)
literacy ★★★☆☆ (def not a regular at the library but he'll occasionally stop by. also, he does enjoy reading about both famous dancers + swordmasters)
creativity ★★★★★
cooking ★☆☆☆☆ (dirt soup a la inigo, anyone?)
tech savvy ★★☆☆☆ (he can learn but it's a huge learning curve)
combat ★★★★☆ (explained this before once but basically: incredibly talented swordsman made even more so after his arrival in Fatesland. The magic wore off once he left but his base talent remained.)
survival ★★★☆☆
stealth ★★★☆☆ (moves lightly on his feet in general but can be stealthy when needed)
street smarts ★★★★☆ (he's managed to keep his pretty face intact so far!)
seduction ★★★☆☆ (HE SUCCEEDS OCCASIONALLY [thank u for the quote Sain] plus Laslow does get a paired ending)
luck ★★★★☆ (now I'm no stat expert but his base luck at the start of Fates is 14 and can grow up to 60%. Plus, he relies on a healthy amount of luck to get him out of dates gone awry.)
handling animals ★★★☆☆ (dogs are his favorite animal of all time ever)
pacifying children ★★★★★ (my personal hc is that inigo/laslow always wanted a little sibling so he therefore has a soft spot for kids and is a pro at making them giggle)
MIND
intelligence ★★★☆☆ (again, not as stupid as he has everyone believe and his emotional intelligence grows the older he gets)
happiness ★★★☆☆ (docking off one star because he does canonically fall into depressive episodes when he gets rejected + there's the whole childhood trauma thing oops)
spirituality ★★☆☆☆ (he believes in Lady Fate more than Naga or even Nohr's Dusk Dragon; having met both of them, he's not the biggest fan of either tbqh)
confidence ★★★★★ (full 5 stars for what he projects but like a three for how he actually feels)
humor ★★★★★ (does not matter if they are laughing at him or with him--point is they are laughing)
anxiety ★★★☆☆(gets better as he's older but it never fully goes away)
patience ★★★☆☆
passion ★★★★★ (one of his crit lines is literally "i'm a man of passion!")
nice         ☆★☆☆☆ mean (only truly sarcastic to owain. sorry pal. fully capable of being a snide little jerk but that's VERY rare)
brave       ☆★☆☆☆ cowardly (has to fight against his fear quite a lot but he will always say he's brave first and foremost)
pacifist   ☆☆☆★☆ violent (i have mANY thoughts about this but shall leave this here for now)
thoughtful ☆☆★☆☆ impulsive (finds a good middle ground at the ripe old age of 22)
agreeable ☆☆★☆☆ contrary (depends on the situation really!)
idealistic   ★☆☆☆☆ pragmatic (head full of rainbows and sunshine etc etc)
frugal        ☆☆☆☆★ big spender (lazzy needs money saving courses fr)
extrovert   ☆☆★☆☆ introvert (i say ambivert solely because he does require time to recharge. [read: sneaking off to go dance])
collected   ☆☆☆★☆ wild (i lean more towards wild because he does like going to a tavern/enjoying a good party but he's not boisterous by any means)
ambitious / possessive / stubborn / jealous / decisive / perfectionist
SOCIAL
charisma ★★★★★ (he wormed his way into his friends [and eventual beloved's] heart SOMEHOW)
empathy ★★★★☆ (another one of those things that grows with age)
generosity ★★★★☆ (when it really comes down to it, if you needed the shirt off his back, he'd hand it over)
wealth ★☆☆☆☆ (if he'd stop buying tea and flowers and trinkets and sweets all the time--)
honest  ☆☆★☆☆ deceptive (he had to be deceptive during his days in Nohr though he leans towards honesty)
leader   ☆☆☆★☆ follower (followed lucina's orders without question and became a retainer in Nohr. Now, how well he listens to some orders....)
polite    ☆☆★☆☆  rude (errs towards manners but he's fairly casual in how he refers to others due to how he grew up)
political ☆☆☆★☆ indifferent (he has a pretty good sense of right and wrong and isn't afraid to stand up to those who are wrong. doesn't matter his own political beliefs [and politicking in general gives him a headache.])
BELIEFS
higher power ★★☆☆☆ (same as spirituality above!)
fate/destiny ★★★★★ (Lady Fate this, Lady Fate that, listened to ex-girlfriend constantly saying "I challenge my fate!" So Fate is something he believes in wholeheartedly, as well as it being something you can change.)
magic ★★★★★ (he has no talent for it but he works alongside it constantly)
soulmates ★★★★★ (yeah.)
good and evil ★★★★☆ (i'd say without a doubt but he does have a conversation with Owain about the merits of killing others without stopping to think about it once in awhile.)
luck ★★★★☆ (again, see above)
PRIORITIES
family ★★★★★ (either blood related or found, he knows he would not survive one day without them)
friends ★★★★★ (again, he'd never survive a day without them)
love ★★★★★ (his entire reason for living)
home ★★★☆☆ (he broke time to fight for some version of his home to exist; he has accepted the home he knew no longer exists)
health ★★★☆☆ (takes care of himself best he can! will run into the rain/snow without enough warm clothing if given the chance. idiot.)
praise ★★★★★ (the validation eases his anxiety)
justice ★★★★☆ (docking off one star because he was a mercenary upon going back in time to a non-apocalyptic Ylisse. Having money for food meant more than always being just though he did have lines he would not cross.)
truth ★★★☆☆ (again, will lie for necessity or intentionally be vague but prefers the truth)
power ★☆☆☆☆ (physically he likes being strong but in terms of holding power he holds no desire)
fame ★★★☆☆ ("I won't rest until every woman in the realm swoons upon hearing my name!" [i'm paraphrasing there but. again. idiot.])
wealth ★★☆☆☆ (he's used to not owning much at ALL though he would absolutely want to provide for his family.)
others' opinions ★★☆☆☆ (his friends have no qualms telling him exactly how himself he is and he's fairly self aware but really he wants to make others happy and if his antics provide that, then so be it.)

Hoshizawa maximumn infodump !
As a pre-note also, this is almost an ultimate guide (as of now.) If any details here conflict with previous details, this one is the correct one. They shouldn't, but I'm not omniscient (infact I'm pretty small brain actually.) Also restating stuff I've mentioned before just to include the full dining experience. And no, I still don't have his casual outfit. It's not here. (i know what it looks like am jus lazy...)
this includes stuff directly from some previous posts too because hdfsjklsdh ya-
I'll try to keep this updated too but no promises i'm lazzy asf.
Very long post ahead! (3.5k words. many. words.)
Hobbies & Stuff (L)
He likes to go outside and sit, usually. Look at the grass and rocks, hold whatever bugs come crawling by, say hi to some birdies, etc. He tries to make friends with the crows, but he keeps forgetting. In his off time, it's not uncommon to find him sitting in the grass (or lying in the grass which can be a bit disconcerting if he's also spaced out 😥)
He can also play the guitar pretty well. "Hey Hoshiz, Play Wonderwall." Usually he spends more time playing guitar than usual if he can’t see. Not always well, just having fun with it. He also grew into playing one song that’s fairly easy to play that he has memorized.
He likes to produce music as well. He's picked up the hobby since a younger age, and still works hard at it today. He’s not stunning or amazing, but he makes good music. While he likes to share it with others as well, he usually just keeps his music saved for himself. He has a laptop that’s a bit dinky at this point, but plenty competent for his purposes. He does more upbeat and experimental electronica(?) music.
He's greatly enamored with dragons as well, and has a collection of books about dragons too. He's creative as well -- he has and continues to pour a significant amount of energy and time into creating and maintaining a pantheon and world of dragons he's created. He keeps a few notebooks with him to write stuff about them in. They're almost like his version of a diary even with the amount of allusions he tends to make, and his collection stretches back to just after they moved. There are a couple notebooks from before the move, but he doesn't really touch them anymore, and most of the pages are ripped out. He tends to drop references to his dragons in conversations as though everyone knows what he means (they don't) and will GLADLY rant about dragons if anyone asks.
He has two plushies with matching designs - one is more keychain/handheld size that he brings with him everywhere, (usually in his bag or pocket or something, or clipped onto his clothes) and a bigger one that he usually keeps inside or on his bed. It's a little white and purple dragon, he says her name is Blushie. The little keychain is “Happie Blushie” - his happy charm that he takes out if he's upset. The bigger one he keeps on his bed is "Huggie Blushie." He's had both for as long as he can remember, gifted by his grandma, custom made based off of some of the drawings he’d sent her. Both are fairly worn, but Huggie especially. He loves his Blushies, and even asked for parts of his hero outfit to include motifs similar to the Blushies, and a special pocket to keep Happie Blushie with him at all times.
He doesn’t really have a favorite color. If you press him about it he'll probably just start listing different colors and what he does/doesn't like about each of them with at least a few dragon references.
His approach to gender & pronouns is precisely the Knuckles pronouns meme, I think I'll draw it at some point. And his sexual/romantic orientation is pretty much the same way as well, though it's probably gray/demi and omni?
He basically refuses to cut his hair, or at least to any short length, and still only trusts his mom to cut his hair. He likes to keep his hair clean and nice, and likes it when others touch/play/mess/etc with his hair, though he does prefer that it's expected.
He only just got a phone before attending UA, and it's already filled with pictures of his pets, several wild critters he saw, cool leaves and plants, pictures of his drawings, and a lot of just dumb stuff. He’s really bad at taking pictures though. He also was able to keep his laptop with him, so he can produce his music while there.
He hadn't grown up with texting. He is a very slow texter, and usually talks in proper grammatical sentences. Scary. Most acronyms especially (but a lot of slang as a whole) are lost on him. He does not know about many memes outside of what his schoolmates show him, but he’s trying to learn… somewhat. Despite this he’s not a complete brick wall to text, and will engage well in any conversation that piques his interest. Just be patient...
Personality (L)
He's not exactly outgoing, but not timid or shy either. He's very open to talking with others, and will happily and readily engage in conversation. He rarely kicks off with small talk, or talk just to Talk though. He'd much rather start a conversation about some random thought he had. He doesn't talk about himself much either, as he doesn’t really know what to say.
He's quite forgetful, and tends to forget things even a few seconds later. He also misremembers major details about people sometimes, even if he's seen them recently. "Oh, you dyed your hair, I like it." "...No I didn't??" "Oh."
He's quite creative. He's one of those types to burst into a conversation without warning with some random thought he just had, whether related to the current topic, a topic from 5 minutes ago, or something else completely different.
He has pretty strictly "good" morals, but can be easily convinced or deceived into believing something is right. Like, he does things because he thinks it’s the right thing, but doesn’t think through it all that far, and often fails to notice subtleties unless they are Pointed Out At Him. He also believes the same of everyone else by default, and often expects others to hold similar values and morals to him. He does not expect others to just lie about something, just as he wouldn’t lie.
Hoshizawa is frequently listening when you don't expect him to, and not listening when you want him to. He doesn't shy around bringing up or making known that he overheard you either.
He isn't vivid with his emotions usually?? He can tend to bottle up or hide his emotions in general, unless it's something big at the moment, in which case he can very easily default to crying. He doesn’t really actively hide his emotions, but more so a mix of not knowing how to talk about them, and not knowing that it’s not just normal or standard and just doesn’t realize how he’s feeling at all and doesn’t really pinpoint it.
He is honest to a fault, or at least he tells his truth to the best of his ability. It can be very convoluted or confusing, and he often misremembers details. Sometimes this can come off as deceptive to someone suspicious, but it's not his intention. He doesn't skirt around denying something, raising an objection, or pointing something out either. He only really skirts around talking about himself when he was younger - he won’t lie, but often won't explain in any discernible detail.
On honesty, including when talking about people. It's rare he dislikes, especially hates someone, but he won't skirt around how he feels about someone. He doesn't typically go up to someone and just say if he doesn’t like them, but if they ask he wouldn't lie.
He very much lives in his head. He frequently spaces out when not very much is going on, and can be completely unreachable. He can ignore others by mistake, and can space out in the middle of interactions.
A bad habit is he tends to say something the moment a thought comes to his head, and often ends up interrupting others because he just had a thought.
When he gets accused of lying, he stops talking about it as a whole and moves on to a lighter subject where applicable, or just ends the conversation. He doesn't try to justify himself to someone who won't listen. In fact, he generally tends to just disengage and mute conflict.
While he means well, he's just not the person you would want to go to if you need to vent. If he doesn't just try to change the topic he can be unintentionally dismissive of someone's issues, or give Really Bad nonsense advice. He's like, negative therapist friend, honestly. He doesn't mean to be rude, but definitely better to come to if you want a distraction, and not advice or comfort. Also in the traditional Squishizawa ways, he will gladly give you a hug.
He’s not “facts over feeling hEhE” but he does take a very logical/analytical approach to trying to understand emotions and whatnot when he doesn’t understand them. Hence the amount of references and connections he makes in emotional situations. He often has a hard time exiting the box of the implications of an emotion, if that makes sense (i hope it does because I don’t understand it either…)
He's not afraid of bugs or critters, or really any animals. Probably to a ridiculous and dumb point. No matter how many times he gets stung by wasps or something, he’d probably hold one. He's strongly against killing animals or bugs for nothing, and will often try to protect them wherever he can. He's the one that takes the spiders outside. Please do not stomp on them. He already named it :(
He loves physical contact. If you ever need a hug, Squishizawa is always here. He will not turn down a hug.
Yummy snackies!! (S)
He's not terribly picky, but if he dislikes something, he will not eat it, and rather avoid it. He's very obvious about this. Usually he'll try to give it back or pass it on to someone who would like it more at least.
Sweets are kind-of always in the meh zone (he'll almost always eat it but typically tries to pass it on to someone who likes candy more first) except Bontans, which are his favorite.
Meats are something he eats infrequently, but he likes it fine nonetheless, and he'll eat it. Sushi & raw meats is a complete no go though.
He likes vegetables a good bit, and loves nearly every fruit (given it's not spicy or too sour.) His favorite food as a whole is watermelon, but is not picky with fruits and veggies. Fruit is his candy.
He does not like sour. Some sour is okay, but anything too sour he won't do.
He will probably cry if he eats spicy foods.
He's a pretty competent cook also! He's not a super amazing chef, but he can definitely hold for himself in the kitchen, and is proficient in cooking.
Home life & Past (S)
Still hiding most of it hehe I might share more eventually <3
He moved away from his birth town in Southern Japan in late primary school, after having been held back a grade for medical reasons.
He had been quite reliant on his parents, as they played a more possessive role in his life and he remained dependent on that. Strictly home-schooled since moving, he hadn't had much contact with other people his age either. Any time he had the chance to reach out, he was rejected.
Now in UA, he will still call his parents frequently. He gets a bit sick of it, but at the same time it gives him a sort of necessary comfort. He genuinely loves his parents, and, where possible, will rarely make a big decision without at least consulting them, in which he will always take their advice.
His mother used to be a sidekick. While she didn't have much success going much further than that, she still lived comfortably at home soon following their move. She was a lot more consistently close with Hoshizawa, and most on board for allowing Hoshizawa to attend UA. Her quirk allows her to fling volleys of star-like "shurikens" at a target that burst into harmless sparks on impact.
Quirk details (XL)
His father currently works a much tamer job in comparison, as a computer hardware engineer. He wasn't as engaged in Hoshizawa's life directly, as he worked most of the day, but held more control over the household and other decisions. He has a quirk that allows him to create small, orb-like light sources of any varying intensity.
Whenever talking about his past himself beyond that, he tends to be fairly inconsistent, and it's not hard to find that it doesn't line up, whether because it seems too weird, or details don't line up.
Generally, his quirk allows him to create and manipulate miniature, (millimeters sorta small) cyan and yellow stars that produce similarly colored clouds of stardust which he can also control. The tiny stars themselves are bright, but the clouds of stardust they make can be disorienting, and temporarily blinding to those who look at it for long. The thinner, or further away a cloud is, the slower it acts in causing these effects though. As he uses it, he takes on the same effects it causes, however.
Hoshizawa knows how to use his quirk in a couple of ways. He can create the stars in his hand and throw them out, create stardust from his body to float around him, and bring the stars and stardust tightly together to make a loud flash of light. When creating stars to throw, they float past and eventually come to a stop midair. Once they're flying, they start to create a dim (relative) trail of stardust, which soon turns into a proper cloud once they've separated and come to a stop. When he creates a cloud around himself, it's usually not a lot at once without straining himself. He can however shake himself (or other similar body movement like if he falls & hits the ground) while doing this to increase how much there is at once. The flash brings together a collection of stardust already in the air, and makes a small burst of light, as well as making a loud, twinkling “pop” noise. It would absolutely be extra of me to make an audio for what I’m thinking, so that’s why I might at some point.
Once he creates a cloud, it doesn't take a long look at it to be blinded. Likely just more than a couple seconds of a look can trigger the effects, and a few seconds more can be blinding. Also depending on how dense it is, or how close someone is. When under the effects, one can quickly be horribly disoriented or faint feeling, as well as being temporarily blinded.
Standing in a cloud isn't worse for any particular reason beyond the effects setting in Much Quicker because You Are in a Cloud of Blinding Light??? The closer you are, the less effective external eye protection is, and once within the light, unless one is wearing very specific, strong eye protection, it is basically useless.
A quick glance past a cloud, or with your eyes shut tight or otherwise obscured usually wouldn't be an issue. As well, powerful solar eye protection (ex. eclipse glasses) would work: this way it's possible to see any stars or stardust clouds without disorientation (the less it is, the dimmer, but still possible to see with a sharp eye.) but only be able to see things of similar brightness. One will get as disoriented as they are blinded, meaning if someone is unaffected by the blinding properties, they won't be disoriented either.
However, his quirk doesn't come without cost. While looking at the stardust is completely ineffective in blinding him, as he uses his quirk, he slowly starts to take on the same effects. Any amount of use will cause the side effects, but he is able to hold up remaining sighted for a while. He experiences disorientation as well after a while too.
Typically the worst of the side effects stay for around a day, and go away over time depending on how bad it is, but rarely it can last even longer periods of time. The disorientation effects can get pretty bad, but don't last as long - a couple days tops to go away completely but usually worst around a few hours to a whole day depending on severity. It's not entirely consistent either just by chance, and if he's less strained/stressed/tired/etc. he is able to go longer and recover faster.
While recovering from major use (gets to a point where he's lost most/all of his sight) it's just not worth using his quirk again. He has to expend a lot more energy (and sight+centeredness) to get half as much good out of using it. 99% of the time he's going to take that time off. Worse so, overusing it while recovering can make the recovery take twice as long or more. The effect continues to worsen exponentially if he keeps trying to use his quirk while recovering, but he says it's never happened to such an extreme extent.
When his body creates the stardust while he's using his quirk, he will glow with the stardust himself. This is nowhere near the blinding clouds, and is more like a cat's eye or other similarly mirrored light but appearing more like glitter. It can be found in slight amounts in the air or surfaces he recently visited (around 10-ish or so minutes at most) or where he is currently. The amount of dust is relative to how much he used his quirk: the more he used his quirk at once, the more extra stardust there will be. Hoshizawa tends to not even notice it, as the more light he ends up actually giving off, the less he can typically see. This effect lasts for a couple hours. However this does not happen if he used his quirk while still recovering from overuse.
Yes, he can look directly at the sun (and other similarly bright things) without his eyes frying. Both the sun and the stardust aren’t fun to look at either way, but more like staring at a shaded lamp than burning his eyes off, which he can get used to anyways. Sometimes he can space off staring at bright lights or something and it's weird. Despite this he will usually see as normal. However, in darker spaces he can't see quite as well. His eyes just can't adjust to dark environments as well. Like when you're up at 1:30 am staring at your bright phone screen all night and look up - that first second is how well he usually sees in the dark.
One usage of his quirk he used only once before, during his entrance exam
He discovered and showed an extreme version of his regular burst during his entrance exam. Similar to the flash, but bringing together and "igniting" all existing stardust he's made up to that point (including currently still inside him) to make a much greater flash focused on himself that can even physically blast away anyone or anything nearby in a burst of light. using it just wiped him out completely, and he fainted on the spot. Following this incident, his quirk stopped working for a while, for which he experienced some other ill effects, as well as the familiar blindness and extreme disorientation. While he doesn't know why it happened, even if he knew, he is far from keen to try it again.
UA entrance exams (M)
Convincing his restrictive parents after so many years of homeschooling to apply to one of the largest, most prestigious and grandest hero schools was more than a task. Fortunately his mom sided with Hoshizawa, and applied him to UA, only sort of behind his dad's back.
The day of entrance exams and all soon came. He passed the written exam very well, definitely in a higher grade of scores. However, the practical gave him a bit more issue as his quirk was a lot more of a special effect, couldn't actually hurt something alone, and would seem ineffective on mechs. Despite this, he managed to score a lot of points by figuring out generally how and where the robots sense the world, and using the light and noise from his quirk just enough to screw with their detection to trick them into breaking themselves. Most of the exam he tried to keep distance from others, as he was afraid his quirk may affect other test takers. Due to this he scored less rescue points which he had to make up in overcoming more of the mechs.
He used his quirk in an extreme way during his practical exam, in a way he hadn't even expected himself. He discovered and showed this extreme version of his regular burst. Towards the end of the exam, he was struggling to see and walk straight. He had lots of stardust still in the air that hadn’t completely dissipated, He got several points for managing to destroy several of the mechs with it, however, using it just wiped him out. Fortunately for him though, time was almost out anyway.
His parents were freaked out by this, and they had a big talk over everything, considering trying to take him out of the school. He assured them he still really wanted to go, and that he would be safe. A lot of debating later, and they finally came with a compromise, choosing to let him continue at UA if he made it. Fortunately, he received the acceptance letter not long after, and he was able to attend UA, following their other terms as well.

Colin and Lazzy move to clay hill for the summer to A-Company their uncle Roy till school starts back up.
It’s a nice cozy town yet not all people are kind as they’re supposed to.
Even though making friends is hard they manage to find a small group of kind while meaning people, and while hanging out in the living room they find something they don’t think they were supposed to.
What will happen?
Ask: so far closed but will be open soon
Please no nsfw ask keep language semi appropriate
I will update the story everyday (hopefully) with one art piece on every chapter :) some chapters nay be slow asome long and some short :)
