Have you ever wanted to draw something but you fought due to your skill level at the time you decide not to do it
I think this used to happen to me more when I was younger haha, but now I've sort of adopted a "fuck it, we ball" mindset where I will just draw things the best I can at the moment and whatever happens happens lol
Although I do sort of still have this mindset for projects moreso than individual drawings...like I may want to make a bazillion page long graphic novel or a feature length film, but there is no way I would be able to do that on my own right now lmao
but rather than just not do it, I figure out how to do it in a manner that I can achieve at the moment, like by making a 20 page comic or a short film instead!
it's sort of all about compromise...if there's something out of your level at the moment, find a way to bring it to your level and then just try your best with it! After all, in the end, the only way to get to the level to draw the thing you want to draw is to give it a go anyway and do it a million times shittily with joy in your heart haha, at least that's what I think!

Yandere Merc Dads (Imagine)
[Heavy, Sniper, Demo]
Heavy
You come under Heavy's care most likely because someone he was close to could no longer care for you. Whether that was because of their death or other circumstances can vary. He will hesitate to take a young child in, but if pressured enough he won't push the responsibility away.
"Why me? Meesha ees not-"
"Because you're all they have left"
Heavy is very well known for being a protector and when it comes to children you can bet your ass that protectiveness intensifies, let alone one he's responsible for. He's sheilding and vigilant at every turn and will most definitely throw himself into harm's way if it means protecting you.
"You weesh to see Y/n? HA! You amuse me. Please tiny baby man, say more."
His obsession comes almost immediately. If you are a child placed under his care, this will be an immediate connection as every fiber in his being is set on defense mode. You are family, so he would sooner see himself face a thousand hells than let you get even mildly injured.
"Thees is Y/n. You hurt them, you die. Ees simple"
While he doesn't have his eyes constantly on you as he still allows you to experience the world and learn to be on your own, he will always keep tabs on you. He always knows where you are, where you're going to be, and who you will be around. If, however, he does lose track of you he will not stop until he finds you. He will head to every single possible place you could be and any soul that steps in his way will be crushed. During this time he will hold a cold yet terrifying stare on his face, like an angry bear looking for his cub. Upon finding you, however, he will immediately melt into worry and without asking you why or how he'll take you back home, only asking if you were hurt the whole way.
"Where ees leetle-"
"Misha? How did you-"
"Y/n! I have looked everywhere for you! You are not hurt? Thees ees good. We will talk later. I weel take you home now"
"What- hey! Put me down!"
While to others Heavy might appear as a man only made for destruction, he can be rather sentimental and extremely caring with people he cares about. On top of that, he is undoubtedly amazing with kids. When he cares about them, at least.
"Come. Eet is bedtime"
"But I don't wannaaaaa"
"Hm...I weell sing you lullaby eef you do"
"...fine"
The little things are what matters most to Heavy. Each little achievement is congratulated and he will encourage you to do what you care about. He hopes that if he can give you the life he and his sisters never had, you'll be able to grow up normal and hopefully manage to get away from the life of bloodshed he's lived with.
"Misha! Look! I made it for you!"
"Ohhhh eet ees nice work! Misha loves it!"
He calls you "Solnishko" which means "sun" or "little sun". You remind him of the sunlight he saw in Sabira. It was never expected, but each glimpse of it was cherished.
"Come Solnishko, eet ees time to get up"
"But whyyyyy"
He will allow you to go to school if you wish, but he has no problem homeschooling you. He is rather educated and has enough general life experience to teach you how you survive and the basics. Though his teachings are in Russian, so you best get to learning that quickly.
"у нас сегодня много работы (we have a lot of work today)
"у нас всегда много работы (we always have a lot of work)"
"Hm?"
"Nothing!"
Now, as stated earlier, Heavy's protective. So the singular moment anyone, and I mean anyone threatens your safety, they're gone. He will not have you hurt, he wouldn't be able to live with himself if you were. The younger you are the worse this is because he knows you are completely defenseless and that he's the only thing standing between you and death. Even so, he will not harm anyone in front of you unless it's absolutely necessary. He doesn't want you to be afraid of him, nor does he want you to grow up near violence.
"Misha! Help!"
"No one's gonna hear you-ack!"
"You theenk eet ees good idea to mess with them? Hm? Thees makes you very stupeed"
Heavy's rules are simple and easy to follow. One, always tell him where you are, two, don't lie, and three, never ever join any type of violent career. His worst possible fear is you picking up on his job and thinking that it's cool or that you want to grow up like him. He doesn't want you to do anything that requires bloodshed and will try to get you to avoid it at all costs, even if it comes at the cost of your present happiness. He knows in the long run it's better if you don't go down that path.
"B-But I want to be just you! You're no strong and-"
"Nyet. Y/n should not want to be like me. I have bad job. I only do eet for money. You weell not do the same. Thees ees final time we talk about thees"
Upon breaking any of these rules though, he does have his punishments. He is nothing if not fair though and never goes overboard with it. He won't yell and he rarely gets angry but he will take away privileges and assign harder chores. Groundings are also common though manual labor is what he believes to be the best way to discourage you from breaking the rules.
"Am I done yet?"
"Nyet. You steel have two more bags"
"Ug! This is so stupid-"
"Play stupeed games, ween stupeed prizes. Get back to work"
However, if you were to break a big rule, and I'm talking you lied about where you were going and started messing around with bad people kind of breaking rules, his calmness will cease to exist. It will be one of the few times he ever gets angry at you. It alone will be enough to get you shaking in your boots. It's after that though, when you see tears rushing down his face, likely due to the fear your actions have caused him, that you'll truly be hit with the reality of what you've done.
"I hate it here! I'm never allowed to do anything! I'm just- just- a fucking puppet!"
"...Я работаю на тебя, я истекаю кровью ради тебя. Я делаю все, что в моих силах, чтобы дать тебе хорошую жизнь, и Я НЕ УВИЖУ, ЧТО ТЫ ЕЕ РУШИШЬ! (I work for you, I bleed for you. I am doing everything in my power to give you a good life and I WILL NOT SEE YOU RUIN IT!)
"..."
"Hate me eef you weesh. But you weell not make same mistakes I did"
Growing up you will soon notice his overprotectiveness and deep fear of you getting hurt. The older you grow and the more you start to notice how abnormal this was, especially once you become an adult and learn of not only his past, but the jobs he worked as you grew older and how hard he tried to keep that part of his life hidden from you.
"You...You're a killer..."
"I deed what I had to..."
However, you will still love him, because despite his extreme care he truly did and will continue to always want the best for you. He is also one of the few in the team that will let you live your life and become the strong person he taught you to be with no interference. He let's you make mistakes and learn from them, he's just here to beat the absolute shit out of (and effectively murder) those who dare to hurt you in the process.
"I understand...I'm glad you were the one I ended up with"
"Meesha ees glad as well"
He will always love you too. There is never one day where he doesn't think about you or the memories you made together. He will, until the day he dies, be there for you and will always insist on protecting you, even as he grows old and you grow stronger.
'Так невинно...Если бы только мир позволил тебе остаться таким (So innocent...If only the world would let you stay that way)'
After all, he's the only one truly able to keep you safe.
Sniper
You were the result of his parents growing lonely when he left and adopting another kid to raise. And so you came under his care at probably the most tragic time of his life. Finding out his parents were dead.
"Mum? Pa? Oi'm home! Where-...oh no"
He almost resented you at first. Both of his parents died yet you lived!? You!? This useless blabbering pipsqueak was what they left alive? Soon though, he'll recognize that anger and realize that his parents had cared about you. They had been loving you the same way they had loved him. You were his sibling and there was no way in hell he'd ever want you to end up with anyone but him. So, after pulling himself together, he took up the mantle as your caretaker.
"They're gone...they...they're gone..."
His feeling of obsession was almost immediately after his realization. He'd let his parents be killed, he wasn't about to let you get killed too. No, he'd be there for you. He'd keep you safe. He wouldn't lose the last person in the world that he cared about. The last remaining piece of his stitched together family.
"No no don't cry, oi'm here. You remember me don't cha? Your big brother! It's gonna be okay...it's gonna be okay..."
While Sniper wasn't the most emotionally available or openly loving person, he had his own way of showing his care. Little things every now and again and his (mostly awkward) attempts to be involved in your life. He often found himself acting like his father. Sure, he might have never said as much as he should, and maybe he was a bit hard to talk to, but you knew as well as him that he'd lay his life down for you, and that there was never a day he ever regretted having taken you in, no matter how overwhelmed he became with the prospect of basically being a father.
"So uh...you ever read any books?"
"I don't know how to read"
"Roight, roight. Forgot about that"
This can be best described when he loses track of you. The moment he realizes you've been gone too long he's panicking. Like a chicken with its head cut off, he's trying to find you even in his panicked state. It will be one of the very few times you ever see him truly scared. Once he finds you he's at the point of cursing and, though he might seem angry with you at first, it's more so that he thought he had truly lost the only family he had left. He'll apologize later if he goes overboard, though it may take a few days for him to do so.
"Y/n! Y/n! Where the fu-"
"Mick?"
"Y/n! Where the bloody hell have you been!?!? You can't just run off whenever you want!"
You aren't allowed to go to any type of school, it isn't necessary. In his mind all that matters is what he teaches you, everything else isn't important enough to care about.
"Alroight, you're gonna learn how to make a fire today"
"But it's raining..."
"Oi'm aware'a that. We're still doin it"
Sniper's not good with children. He was always a loner as a kid and a bit mature for his age. That and he's never had to take care of a kid before. So it's more than a few times that he treats you as more mature than you are, and thus more culpable for your actions. It's often that he has to remind himself you aren't fully able to do adult things yet, and that he should be a bit more lenient with small mistakes.
"Y/n? You seen my-...hat"
"..."
'They're only a kid, they're only a kid, they're only a kid-' "WHERE DID YA EVEN GET GLUE?!?!?"
Small moments with Sniper include hunting, camping, and long road trips. You two will go place to place around in his camper, though most of your time is spent outdoors. The moment you're old enough to hold a gun he's going to teach you how to shoot and once you hit your teen years he'll take you on hunting trips. He will 100% give you your own gun for your tenth birthday.
"Alroight, you're getting older now, and it's about toime ya started helpin out. So oi got ya this"
"...holy shit really?!"
"Oi! Watch your language!...it is a beaut though ain't it?"
He calls you "little joey". Mostly because he finds it funny.
"Let's get it movin little joey-"
"Hey! I'm not little"
"...you sure about that?"
When it comes to protecting you from the outside world, Sniper takes preventative measures. He pretty much isolates you, only allowing very minimal contact with strangers. Not only that, but his weapons training isn't just for hunting. He's teaching you how to defend yourself and to always be alert and ready. He will instill this paranoia so deeply that even he can't sneak up on you.
"...I can hear you"
"You're gettin good"
"Learned from the best"
If, however, you were to be threatened in any way, or others were to threaten to take you away from him, he won't even blink an eye before killing them. He doesn't care who they are or what future threat the action might pose. He can deal with that after he's sure you are safe with him. Due to this, you will grow up not entirely unfamiliar with death and thus grow cold towards the action. Sniper finds this to be a good thing because he believes it's better to be hardened and alive than trusting and dead.
"Looks like you've come crawlin round the wrong neck'a the woods...say, why don't we make a deal? Give me the kid and I'll let you be on your merry-"
BOOM!
"...M-Mick-"
"We gotta get movin. Ain't no way he's the only one around here"
"..."
"Oi said get movin!"
He is terrible at setting strict rules considering he's always flip-flopping between considering you a child and considering you as an adult. Some of his clearer rules though are to keep away from people, always have a weapon on you, and to never leave his care for more than a few minutes at a time. All of these rules tie back to his paranoia and his deep fear that the people that killed his parents are coming for the both of you next.
"I'm gonna head down to the lake for some water"
"Got your gun?"
"Yep"
"Ya hear anyone down there?"
"Nope"
"Be back in five minutes tops"
"On it"
Breaking these rules has many different punishments. Most include getting yelled at because he really just isn't sure what the best way to discipline a kid is and it's the first thing that ever comes to mind. Other times you'll be grounded to the camper, unable to leave it for days or even weeks at a time. Most times though, when it's a small mistake that isn't very harmful or could lead to danger down the line, he'll just grumble and tell you not to do it again.
"What were you thinkin! That could have been dangerous! How many toimes have oi told you ta stay away from strangers! They could'a hurt ya!"
If you were to manage to do something completely against what he asks of you, such as trying to run away or talking to a group of strangers, he just loses it. You will never get far from him and the moment he has his hands on you he's silent. Stone cold. He'll drag you back to the camper if he has to and no matter how much you yell, kick or scream he isn't going to let you go. The moment you're in the camper he slams the door shut and finally releases you. When you turn back to look at him his face is unreadable. He'll stare at you a moment before silently heading to the front of the camper. He won't talk to you for weeks, even if you beg him to. What you don't notice is how much your actions shattered him. You'll instead only interpret anger and resentment.
"Are you still mad at me?"
"..."
"Look I'm sorry okay! I just-...I just wanted to hang out with them for a little bit"
"..."
"Fine! Don't talk to me! Not like there's much of a difference"
As you grow older and you notice how much of a vice grip he has on your life, you, like any teenager or young adult, will want to explore the world. Every time you make an attempt though, he's quick to shut you down. Eventually you'll either run or you'll explode at him about wanting to leave. Either way, it will turn dark very, very quickly.
"I HATE IT HERE! I HATE YOU! WHY WON'T YOU LET ME LIVE!?!? YOU'RE RUINING MY LIFE! I'D BE BETTER OFF WITHOUT YOU!"
He won't let you leave. Even once you're an adult he doesn't want you to be anywhere without him. So if it becomes a big enough problem, and you are making genuine attempts to leave him, he'll resort to what he has to. Even if that means locking you in the camper or, worse yet, tying you down. Maybe even putting a tracker on you.
'Ya can't leave- ya can't leave! You're all Oi've got left! Ya can't just go, you're moi family! Ya backstabber! Oi give ya everythin oi can and you just go'n ruin it! Foine! Two can play this game!'
He can't lose you. He's lost everything else. He just can't lose you too.
Demo
The family tradition is that if a DeGroot has a kid, they must be separated into adoption at birth, so he's very much hesitant about having any kids, even though he would love one. Buuuut, you know what isn't tradition? Having one delivered right to his doorstep! Since you weren't through his efforts at adoption, and you weren't directly his kid, that means he bypassed tradition! So he gladly took you in. It wasn't like his mother was complaining either. At this rate she was just glad that he had something to be responsible for.
"Maw! Look what I found sitin' on the fron' step!"
It was love at first giggle for him. The moment you stared at him with those wide happy little eyes he was hooked. You were everything he dreamed of in a child, he couldn't have asked for a better miracle!
"Oh ain't yeh just a lit-"
*giggles*
"...ye're perfect!"
Demo is nothing if not the doting type. He's constantly and always finding new things about you to get excited about. Every tiny little thing you do becomes the biggest deal in the entire world. To the point where it might be overbearing or patronizing. But he does truly and genuinely get overly excited. He just can't get over how amazing you are!
"Me lit'le one's doin so well! Just look at yeh! I couldn't'a asked for a beh'er-"
"I get it, I'm amazing, can we go now?"
"...but yer just so- so-"
"Please don't start crying again-"
*immediately breaks down into sobs*
He isn't the type to be over-obsessed with your location at any point. As long as he has a general idea he's fine. Mostly because he isn't away from you very often. Hanging out with him is genuinely fun, so you rarely spend time away from him, especially as a kid. That being said while he might not know your location he definitely knows who you're with. He believes as long as you're around people he fully trusts then everything will be fine.
"Dad! I'm heading out to the shop!"
"Fer what?"
"Just to look around. I'm kinda bored"
"Headin out with Milly aren't yeh?"
"...yeah..."
"Alright, don' be gone too late"
"Wait really? Cool!"
Demo is absolutely amazing with children. He genuinely enjoys playing with them and he finds them adorable. However, His alcoholic habits can and will interfere with this trait. When you came into his life he tended to limit himself a bit so that he could take care of you, but it's still a habit and he can sometimes go overboard, not to mention its necessity. Usually, his mother takes care of you when he's had too much and the next day he will feel extremely guilty for indulging himself. He will greatly restrict himself after these binges, but he knows he needs it so he never fully gives it up.
"Dad? Are you dead?"
"Nay, he's just steamin. Looks like I'm Gonnae be puttin yeh ta bed tonight"
Demo is always trying to find something fun for the both of you to get up to. He's never against a bit of mischief, in fact he loves it! Once you're old enough he'll start teaching you about bombs and the basics of chemistry. You two will often build your own fireworks to set off, just for fun.
"Da! Can I light it this time?"
"Aye! Course ya can!"
Demo undoubtedly calls you "Mo chridhe" which means "my heart".
"What does mo chridhe mean?
"Me heart"
"Oh...why do you call me that?"
"Cause ye just take up me whole heart!"
He would prefer to send you to a public school. He knows he has some weak spots in his education and with his busy life juggling a kid, a blind financially dependent mother, and work, he can't always be there. So off to public school it is!
"Do yeh got what yeh need?"
"Mm-hum!"
"...do yeh got somethin yeh shouldn't?"
"...no..."
"Y/n-"
"It's just some chemical stuff! I wanna show the other kids!"
"...well alright then, off with yeh!"
Now Demo is on the lower end of crazy when it comes to obsession. He's not trying to inhibit your life in any way and is actually a really good father.
But pray for the poor soul who hurts you.
If anyone hurt his wee bonnie, it's murder time. Be that mentally or physically, it doesn't matter. He will not put up with anyone hurting you, he will not stand for it. When he finds out, his first objective is to console you and make sure you're completely okay. You won't even notice his held-back fury. After you're consoled, and preferably when you're fully away, he's going to find and kill this bitch. No questions. He doesn't care what their reason is, they should never have even gone near you with any mal intent. In his eyes you were perfect. You were everything he cared about. So he had no problem killing those who threatened your safety.
"There yeh are!...what 'appened?"
"M-My teacher got mad at me. I was doing an experiment and I was just about to get to the fun part when she shoved me away. Then there was a big explosion because she didn't let me do the next part! And now I'm in big trouble!"
"...she shoved yeh? Oh me sweet lit'el bairn, don't worry. Yeh ain't hurt are yeh?"
"I got a bad bruise on my arm..."
"Alright, we'll get that fixed up when we get home. In the meantime, I'll be talkin to that mean ol' teacher you got"
Demos rules are pretty lax. He isn't a very strict parent, nor does he wish to be. He only hopes that you'll tell him when something's wrong. If he found out you were hiding a dark secret from him he'd feel utterly destroyed as he wondered what he could have done wrong for you not to trust him. Other than that (and maybe killing people and causing unneeded chaos and destruction with your chemistry skills) he kinda just lets you do what you want.
"Now listen, yeh can't be doing those dangerous experiments at school"
"But whyyyyy. They're cool!"
"Aye, they are. But the school don think so. If ya wanna show off yer skills your welcome'a invite some friends over"
"Really?!?!"
"Course!"
Even when he does have to punish you (mostly because his mom put him up to it) he's still pretty hands-off. He might send you to your room or take away some activity you enjoy, but it won't last very long. He prefers to talk it out and once you two reach an understanding he relents on whatever the punishment was.
"Yeh know why yeh can't do that anymore dontcha?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry...can I have my chemistry now?"
"...aye, yeh can have it back"
"Yay!"
Chances are you'll never realize the true extent of Demos care even as you grow older. He kept most of his violence away from you and he never put too much of a damper on your freedom. He taught you what you needed and let you explore the world. You'll likely never know. He would like to keep it that way.
"Dad?"
"Hm?"
"I'm glad I got left here with you...I couldn't have asked for a better Dad."
"*fully tearing up* yer gonna make me cry"
The older you get the more he wishes he could turn back time, just to watch you grow up again. So when you finally leave he needs to hold himself back from begging you to stay. He knows it's normal for kids to grow up and leave, this is a part of life. But he almost can't bear it. He will break down in tears when you go and will give you the biggest bear hug of your life. After you're gone he slowly spirals as he takes up heavy drinking again and begins to gain weight. In other words, your absence leaves him completely depressed, but he will never let you know that. Every time he sees you it's like it all disappears and it's back to his joyful self until you leave again.
'Why couldn't yeh have stayed? The world donnae make sense without yeh! Me sweet lit'le chridhe...I hope yeh miss me..."
There was never a moment you weren't on his mind

I wonder what would happen if Y/N had a really bad day and just decided to pick a sibling from the Yan!Todoroki clan like a cat would pick its person and just?? Sit in their lap?? They'd say 'I had a terrible day, no torture today please' before taking their well-deserved nap lookin' all cute and peaceful. Then the sibling would be so proud and confused at the same time but really really happy like 'omg for real? Me? What's happening?? 🥺'. Bonus points if it's Dabi just having the widest grin on his face while staring straight at the rest of the fam seething with jealousy.
I saw your works btw and been inhalin em all cause they're all so good *chef's kiss*
-Vibin' anon
Yandere Dabi comforting sister reader
This is so cute omg. Thank u Vibin anon!
Check out my MASTERLIST for more!
Yandere Dabi:
Shotou had come to pick you up from school today. Even though he had a busy schedule himself, he still made time for you, just like the rest if your family.
"How was school?" He asked.
"Fine."
"Just fine? Wasn't your result supposed to come today?"
You nodded. "It did. I passed."
Shotoy smiled. "Thats great. Did you get your report card?"
You knew he was going to ask for it. You also knew that he already knew what grades you got.
You nodded and handed him the report card from your bag.
Shotou's face lit up when he saw your grades.
"You're first again. I'm so proud of you." He patted your head.
You smiled. "Thanks."
By the time you guys reached home, you already knew that your entire family was home. They always were when your result came. You knew the principal had already informed Enji of your grades, she always does.
When you entered the house, your family yelled "surprise!" You feigned shock as they hugged you and congratulated you on your achievement.
Rei had prepared a little feast for you, everything was made from scratch. Enji was beaming with joy, he was so proud of his little girl. Rei had made your favourite cake, kissing your cheek as you cut it. Enji had gotten you beautiful diamond necklace. Natsuo, Shotou and Fuyumi had gotten you some gifts as well, stuff you had vaguely mentioned about. Dabi wasn't home, but you didn't mind his absence.
Your family had planned to spend the night on the couch cuddling and doing a movie marathon, but when you asked them to excuse you for the night because you were feeling tired, they became a but worried. You reassured them that you just had a long day at school as well, and now that you were stuffed with Rei's delicious food, sleep was inevitable. They nodded, a bit sad that you wouldn't be joining, but understanding nonetheless.
You went up the stairs to your room, and as soon as you closed the door, the smile you had been displaying all night was wiped off.
You sat on your bed and recalled the events of the day. Tears pricked your eyes, but you kept yourself quiet. They're not worthy crying over, you reminded yourself. Still, you couldn't help but crumple up your report card and throw it in the dustbin.
Silent tears fell from your eyes, no longer being able to hold them in. God, its infuriating.
Suddenly, you heard someone knock on your bedroom door. You looked at the clock. 12 am.
Its Dabi.
You couldn't deal with him tonight. You remained silent, hoping he'd leave you alone.
But of course not.
You quickly turned away from the door as soon as you heard it open. Wiping your tears quickly, you heard Dabi come in.
"You brat. Why didn't you answer when I knocked?" He asked, pushing the door close with his foot.
"Leave me alone, Dabi." You were trying hard to stabilise your voice.
"Huh?! Is that anyway to talk to your favourite brother?" Dabi mocked as he pulled at your ponytail. You yelped before turning around to push him away.
Dabi was about to laugh at you when he suddenly noticed the your face. Your eyes were full of tears, lashes heavy with them. Your face was flush, your nostrils flared, your lips in a pulled in a tight scowl. Had you been crying? Or did he make you cry?
"Hey, I'm sorry-"
"Just leave me alone." You said as you angrily wiped the tears from your face.
Dabi was shocked to see you like this. He had never seen you cry, not even when he took his teasing a little too far. So, to see you react like this, it worried him a bit.
"Have you been crying? What's the matter? Did you fail or something?" His voice actually held some concern.
You shook your head, pulling your ponytail loose. "Its nothing. Just leave."
Dabi could see the pain in your eyes. What happened? He plopped down on your bed next to you. "Come on. Tell me." He poked your shoulder. "You know I won't leave until you tell me."
"Its nothing, really." You sniffled, avoiding his gaze.
"Did Enji say something?" Dabi asked, his voice taking a dangerous tone. "Look at me. Did he do something?" He's going to kill that bastard if he-
"What? No. God, just go."
Dabi let out a huff. He'll have to use another strategy. "Fine. Don't tell me. I'll just tell Shotou you have been crying, and then you can answer to him."
Shotou? God, he would just overthink everything and do something stupid.
You caught his wrist just as he was about to leave. "Do you have to be such a jerk every single day?" You glared daggers at him.
Dabi smirked before pulling his wrist away and plopping on the bed next to you. "Yes. Big brother privileges." He poked your cheek. "Now spill."
You looked at him, hoping he'd just get blasted magically. Idiot.
You inhaled deeply before closing your eyes. "Its stupid, really." Dabi stared at you, signalling for you to continue. "Something... happened at school." You paused. "Just a couple of assholes."
Dabi was attentive now. "Go on."
You looked down at your lap, playing with your fingers. "Some kids in my class... they said mean things about me."
"Bullying?" Dabi quirked an eyebrow.
You shook your head. "I- I don't think so. They just said that I only get the highest grade in class because of my dad. Like Enji bribes the school into giving me good marks." You sniffled. "They undermine me. They say I'm not good enough to be in their school, and that the only reason I got in was because of my surname."
Tears dripped down your face slowly, almost as if they were ashamed to fall.
You wiped them away harshly. "And it doesn't matter what I say. I've tried to befriend them, I've tried to get along with them, but they still ridicule me. Its frustrating. They... they don't understand that my only option is to be the best." You whispered the last part, but Dabi heard you loud and clear.
He sat up and gently gripped your chin, turning your face towards him as he narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean 'its your only option'?"
You rolled your eyes. "You know what I mean. I know that no one in the family cares if I get the highest marks or not but...I still have to live up to the family name. What will people say if the number 1 hero's kid is both quirkless and dumb?" Your lips wobbled.
Oh. Ohhhh.
You don't want to let down the Todoroki name; you don't want to let down Enji.
He already knew it was that shithead's fault.
Dabi sighed before pulling you close to him. Placing an arm around your shoulders while his other hand wiped your tears away.
Wanting to prove your worth, that you're a valuable asset to the family. Dabi never thought he'd see himself in you, or his younger self really.
"You're an idiot." Dabi began, carding his fingers through your hair. "You don't have to be the best. You're not expected to. You know, the family knows, hell even I know how hard you worked to get in that school. I've seen how you'd do all nighters, how many times you've turned down going out so that you could do well in your exams. But you don't have to do that." He tilted your chin up, staring into your glossy eyes. "We don't care what the public thinks of us. We won't care if you fail. We don't care you're quirkless. You're not expected to be anything but a good girl." He squished your cheeks together, making you look like a fish. "You just need to be safe. Do you understand?"
You sniffled as you nodded. "Yes. Thank you."
Dabi smiled. "Why didn't you tell anyone before?" You shrugged in response. "You know what would've happened if I said anything. They're already hesitant to let me go to school, this would just give them another reason to homeschool me. Besides, I didn't let their words get to me before, so it really wasn't a big deal." Before? You were about to continue but then kept your mouth shut. But Dabi saw that. He pulled you away from him, his eyes turning sharp as he raised his eyebrows. "But something else happened today as well?"
You averted his scrutinising gaze, keeping your lips sealed as you shook your head no. "Do not lie to me. Or I'll tell Shotou and Enji and then they can handle-"
Your eyes widened. "Do you ever stop making threats?" Rolling your eyes, you told him what happened. "It wasn't anything serious. One of those jerks... thought it'd be funny to try and kiss me. When he tried to force me, I slapped him. Really hard. My handprint still on his face." You smiled at that. "He said the only reason he wasn't using his quirk on me was because I was Todorokis charity case. Then he said that I should be grateful that he was going to kiss me, especially since no one cares about a quirkless, frigid bitch like me." You let out a humourless laugh, but Dabi could see the pain in your eyes. You gave a small smile. "Dont worry. I already know what they said isn't true."
Thats it.
Dabi was already planning murder. He's going to make those little shits pay for what they did to you. The nerve to not only bully you, but make you cry, and then touch you? Dabi is gonna make sure they get tortured in every way possible before he incinerates them-
"Dabi?"
Your soft voice pulled him out of his violent thoughts.
"Hmm?"
"Can you... stay the night?"
He looked at your tear stricken face, your eyes were still laden with tear drops, your nose red from all the sniffling.
How could he say no to you? You looked ugly.
"Its okay. You don't have to-" you were cut off by a pillow hitting your face.
"Move over, brat." He climbed in the bed with you, covering you both with the blanket. "And don't put your cold feet on mine." You smiled cheekily at that.
"Don't hog the blanket- why do you need it anyway?"you yanked the blanket.
Dabi pushed another pillow on your face, laughing as you punched his shoulder. "You're insufferable."you mumbled.
It took a while to get comfortable on your single bed, but it ended up with your head on his chest, while Dabi propped himself against the headboard.
"Thank you." You whispered.
Dabi hummed. "Dont think I don't know why you're doing this."
You smiled softly. He caught on to why you were keeping him home that night; you knew he would do something terrible to those guys. "Promise me you won't hurt them?"
Dabi remained silent. You pulled your head away to look up at him. "Dabi. Promise."
When he didn't reply, tears started forming your eyes. He sighed, before shoving your face back into his chest. "Fine, crybaby. I won't hurt them. Promise." You're such a brat, stopping him from doing his big brother duties.
You went back to snuggling him, not taking long for you to finally go to sleep. Once Dabi made sure you were asleep, he pulled out his phone and texted Toga.
"Need a favour. Up 4 stabbing?"

i’ve been watching ffxiv cutscenes for the main story (pushing thru heavensward right now) and i’ve been thinking of stuff for my wol lately so i guess now’s a good time to introduce them a bit :-)
here’s a link to the og meme: Self Insert Development Meme
1. Does your insert have a name that’s different from yours? Does the name reflect their character in any way, or is it just because it sounds nice? How did you come up with it?
wol’s currently nameless... i can’t use with the usual “eren” as per the naming conventions of each ffxiv race (i will use wol!eren to indicate, well, My WoL). maybe if i wanted them to be a hyur i’d be able to, but i’ve been hopping back and forth between aura (raen) or viera (veena)...
edit (8/4): i keep forgetting to update this lmfao,, but my wol’s name is momo and they’re an aura (raen)!
2. Does your insert have a very strong relationship with a f/o, maybe more than one? Tell us a little about the dynamic they have! This can be a bond that’s romantic, familial, or platonic, anything - even an enemy would count as a strong relationship!
there’s only maybe one person who’s aware of the character(s) that i’m maybe. MAYBE. maybe. looking at (eros Do Not Interact). no names as i refuse to acknowledge/perceive them in any manner.
but, the relationship’s still in the works,, i’m thinking it’s a lot of it’s gonna have to focus on positions of power/hierarchies... maybe a bit of slowburn... for spice.
i feel like any rom relationship i could build might. be slow burn. oops!
3. Who in their canon are they closest to? Who would they drop everything to come help, if anyone? Who’s the person they’re least close to? Who would they most likely not get along with, if anyone?
in terms of story, i think wol!eren’s really close to alphinaud; i get familial vibes from him (and actual wol spends a very large chunk of time with him as well)... but personally, i’m thinking estinien. yea he’s a bit of an asshat but he’s cool (but ig that makes wol!eren a bit of an asshat too)
when it comes to who wol!eren’s not close with... honestly, anyone that abuses their position of power for selfish and harmful reasons at the expense of people go on the hit list. but even then, if the character’s one of the main characters/shown often then it’s like... i’d have to think about it a little more. happens a lot
4. Does your insert have a backstory? Tell us about it! How does their backstory, if any, define who they are? How does it reflect their relationships now? Their hopes and dreams?
hmm much like my other s/is, wol!eren delves on their past often despite their preaching of looking forward. a hypocrite they are!! (/s) a lot of my self ships also delve on like. “same hat” so... honestly they’re just kinda going with the flow and walking wherever they feel is an easy path. they’re a pretty passive person despite the role they’ve been given.
5. Does your insert have any magical talents or otherwise special abilities? Are they passive, like the ability to befriend animals, or dangerous power that the villains want? Or if they're evil - any powers the heroes want to stop?
as per the narrative, they were chosen by hydaelyn and have the echo. however, they’re also extremely perceptive. they can typically tell whether someone has good intentions or not. the issue is that it’s always a feeling and they usually don’t have anything to prove their claims. as a result, they rarely say anything about it. it's not really a “power” but it can certainly be helpful.
6. Do they fight? What’s their weapon of choice? Do they stay on the sidelines? What would it take for them to get off the sidelines? Revenge? Saving a loved one? What’s the motivation for them to fight, or to stay OUT of a fight?
i plan on wol!eren being a summoner! or maybe not exactly a summoner, but something to do with magic being used offensively. they hate getting their hands dirty so they’ll just blow you up instead.
they mainly fight because it’s their duty/obligation to fight, but had they not been in the position they were, they’d have sooner leave combat and live off the grid. nobody really knows this because they never voice it -- it also wouldn’t be good for a warrior of light to say “yea i hate my job and i don’t really care about some of you”, you know?
(7/18) edit: with the help of my ffxiv mutuals, i’ve decided to make wol!eren a black mage :) it’s definitely fitting for their character.
7. What kind of clothing style do they like? What would they never be caught dead wearing? What’s likely in their closet right now?
REALLY DARK CLOTHING. if they show any skin when they don’t have to, they’ll Perish. i intend for them to wear the void ark clothing for magic users but much like everything else, that’s subject to change. clothing that’s aesthetically pleasing and easy on the eyes is good.
8. How do they fit into their canon world? What’s their role to play, if any? Do they have a big destiny? Or do they more live as a side character that’s helpful for the protagonists/antagonists?
literally the protagonist but very much desires to be a side character. because they like playing a supporting role more than the main role, they live in “anonymity.” kinda. it’s just hard when the group you’re apart of and gods?? know literally just about everything you’ve been doing.
9. Their favorite foods? Colors? Activities? What do they enjoy in life? How do they express their joy for things they like?
they will. eat just about anything they’re given, even if the food’s not super great (like a raccoon.....). they don’t really have any particular favorites and if they do, it’s likely to be meat or basic, easy-to-make dishes.
just anything that’s dark/muted. color colors (blues, purples, etc.) are their favorite.
they very much enjoy doing absolutely nothing, especially now that they’re so busy with working. if they’re free from work even if it’s just for a few seconds, you will find them sleeping. Lazy
if they like something, they’d never say it out right. extremely private and closed off person, so unless you’re really close with them, you’d never know if they truly liked something.
10. Their least favorites? What don’t they enjoy in life? How do they deal with being presented with things they don’t like?
literally just anything that inconveniences them. they want things to run smoothly so they don’t have to deal with anything they don’t have to. when something arises that stops them from fulfilling their duties, they’re get irritated. they also just, not the biggest fan of people and socializing.
11. How easy is it to make your insert angry? Sad? How easy is it to twist their emotions into negative things? By contrast, how easy are they to cheer up? What can brighten a bad day?
they’re easily prone to negative emotions, but it’s not “major/serious” since they’re mostly out of touch with their emotions anyhow. if it gets really bad, they kinda “shut down.”
one way to get under their skin is confront them about personal matters, but you can cheer them up if you have a good sense of humor! alphinaud’s helped with that, albeit unintentionally more often than not.
12. Is your insert a loner, or do they prefer crowds? Do they warm up easily, or do they tend to take longer to befriend others? What kinda people do they get along with? Who are they likely to be uncomfortable with?
i think i did mention earlier that wol!eren really doesn’t like crowds. it takes them a very long time to genuinely consider someone as a friend. sometimes they might not even acknowledge someone even if said person tries their hardest to befriend them. and there’s not really a type of person who they’re really “uncomfortable” with (spoilers they’re always uncomfortable with everything asjfhsd), but i guess if i had to answer, it’s just anybody with potentially harmful intentions?
they have. Trust Issues™, if you will.
13. What are your insert’s goals? Their hopes and dreams for the past/future/present! Do they intend to achieve no matter what? Could anything stop them, big or small?
in the past, they wanted to live a comfortable life as a recluse where they can do things without the eyes of others watching... and they still do, but now they’re too accustomed by the presence of people to truly achieve that. after their duties as a wol (if they’re ever completed honestly), they’d probably pull a cloud final fantasy and start a delivery service or something like that LOL
14. Does your insert have any family relations? How do they get along? How do they disagree? Is it a biological family? Adopted? Or is it found family? How did this family come together, if it was one of the last two?
sssomething like that? so far i’m thinking they come from a family of arooound 5. 2 siblings + parents. they have a younger sibling who’s a miqo bard mercenary and an older elezen (?) astrologian currently working somewhere in ishgard. debating on who their parents are but all of them were kinda... “picked up” and put into a family.
the “parental figures” were desperate to have a family but they had little knowledge of how to care for children. needless to say, the environment was not one to flourish in.
miqo brd is kinda like robin hood where he steals from the upper class to give to the poor because he refuses to allow people who’re in need suffer due to a lack of resources. on the other hand, the ast is the elezen who wants nothing but peace. the downside is that he’s very aggressive with his ideals and follows people like the archbishop, thordan.
edit (7/18): wol!eren wasn’t tied to their family biologically, but due to their questionable actions and words, they cut ties with their family and started traveling alone. it was extremely difficult but because they didn’t stay in confines of their own home, they were able to meet the scions and the not.
alphinaud and alisaie are like their siblings. they share a surprisingly a deep, unspoken familial bond with the three because of all the adventures they went on together. wol!eren’s been caught acting like an older sibling to the two.
15. Does your insert have any enemies? What’s that dynamic like? Why are they enemies? Did they ever get along in the past? Is patching up differences out of the question for the future?
much like the actual in-game wol, i’d imagine that anybody that wants to stop the wol in their tracks are considered “enemies.” i haven’t gotten that far into ffxiv to really name characters though,, tba.....
16. Free question space! Ask whatever you want to know!
if ur into ffxiv and u’ve gotten this far down... thank u :) and talk to me abt ur wols or ur ffxiv faves in my inbox maybe?? 👀

As a "formal" start here, I'll post about my Hera OC Reese! He's got quite a long backstory, so bear with me!
Name: Reese Puffalato (Pun of the Cereal Brand “Reese’s Puffs”, Cereal Names were the thing on the planet he was raised on.)
Age: 87 (Born sometime in Age 767)
Universe: 7 (Alternate Timeline)
Race: Hera/Cokhan Hybrid
Voice Actor: TFS Jeice Couldn’t find voice actor’s name (English) Tomokazu Sugita (Young Joseph voice/Japanese)
Orientation: Unknown
Alignment: Lawful Good
Story: After Cell’s Kamikaze Explosion wiped out Goku, King Kai, and the entire planet they were on, the energy keeping Bojack and his crew sealed away dissipated. They were finally able to wreak havoc and continue their conquest after all these years! To celebrate the occasion, the Bojack Crew started a conquest to take over all of North Galaxy. They took over planet after planet, including a planet named Flingor. When Bojack was on this planet, he would encounter the Whollies, Uwocs, and Cokhans. Bojack would actively seek out Whollies and their colonies just so he could force them out of their underground colonies and punt them around like footballs. He wanted to do the same with the Uwocs, but no matter how many times he and his crew tried to gang up on them, they would always outspeed and outmaneuver them over and over. But to them, the most important race was the Cokhans. Somehow they had developed technology on this arguably primitive planet and were fierce fighters all on their own. They made it especially clear that they did not want the Bojack Crew on their planet, and they sent armies after armies of Cokhans to battle them. The Bojack Crew easily won thanks to Bujin’s magic and the sheer difference in power alone. With the Cokhans humiliated and most of their resources spent, they called it a victory and left the planet in disarray.
That would be the last notable thing heard about the Cokhans, except for one thing. While Bojack was on Flingor, he maybe-probably-definitely had an… incident with a Cokhan woman named Cheria (Play on words for “Cheerios”). Months after Bojack’s Crew had left Flingor, she gave birth to a child (Who she named Reese) and took up the task of raising him as a single mother. She kept the origins of his father a secret since he had cause their planet so much harm and turmoil. Thanks to his Hera genes, Reese looked more like a Hera than a Cokhan, and his peers would mock him just for this. Despite the constant torment, he never snapped back. One day, he questioned Cheria why he looked so different from everybody else and why he was bullied because of it. He was 11 at the time, and had somehow already gotten a simple grasp on the concept of death, so she decided it was time he finally knew about his beginnings. She told him about the Space Pirate Bojack and how he was not only his father, but the same person who had fought and killed millions of Cokhan soldiers and threw the entire planet into its own “depression” that the Cokhans were still trying to recover from. Cheria most likely regrets starting off with telling Reese his father was a space pirate.
Reese had never heard of a “Space Pirate” before, and the words clouded his mind as Cheria explained everything about the Bojack Crew, Heras, and why this made him a target. Reese pretended to listen and absorb everything, but all he could think about was becoming a Space Pirate and going on all sorts of adventures away from his boring home and the people that despised him. For the next 7 years, Reese would study and learn almost everything there is to know about space travel and his surrounding galaxy in secret. If he was discovered by anyone, it could potentially ruin his plans to escape. He also devised an efficient plan to sneak into the Cokhan’s military base where they kept their ships and steal their best ship, the Mars Armor. He figured out that the Cokhans hadn’t done space travel ever since Bojack’s Crew attacked their planet, since they were too focused on rebuilding Flingor. When he was 18, he gathered all his money and important belongings (22780 Zeni, many Guides to piloting a ship and navigating the galaxy, and the other essentials), barely managed to execute his plan, and escaped Flingor on the Mars Armor.
Even though Reese had escaped his home planet, he wasn’t in the clear just yet. To avoid being detected by the Galactic Patrol, he had to strictly follow Space Traffic Laws (You read that right) as any Spaceship Pilot would. However, one Galactic Patrol Elite was catching onto what was really going on. The officer, named Jaco, began following the Royal Ship afar from the safety of his own Patrol Pod. He noticed that not only was the Ship a decommissioned Cokhan Royal Ship, but that it was reportedly being Piloted by a Hera Space Pirate. He decided that he would finally confront the ship after it made it’s next unordinary supply run. That day came when Reese landed the ship on a jungle planet to gather food. Imagine his surprise when he returned to his ship only to find Jaco of all people waiting for him! Jaco was less than amused to see him, and arrested him pretty easily. When he was brought to the Galactic Patrol for further questioning, Reese explained to them that he wanted no trouble and that he didn’t know why being a Space Pirate was a bad thing. After lots of discussion and recounts from planets that reported him, the Galactic Patrol determined that Reese was honest and was actually helping the planets he visited instead of harming them. He just didn’t know that it wasn’t a good idea to go around telling everyone that he was a Space Pirate (Thanks to the bad name Bojack gave them).
After the misunderstanding, the Galactic Patrol offered him a type of part-time job and combat training. Reese happily accepted this, and over the course of 10 years, he gained quite the notoriety for being a hero. He also became fast friends with his very idol, Jaco, who would soon become known as “The Dynamic Buddy-Cop Duo”. The Galactic Patrol were also kind enough to make modifications to his ship that would allow him to fly and fight with it to its fullest potential. Life seemed perfect for the Hera until he received an urgent distress signal from a group of scientists… A group of Frieza Force scientists, no less. A woman they were running experiments on broke out of her confinement and was hellbent on destroying not just them and their facility, but their entire race. Her name was Callisto, and she didn’t take very kindly to Reese getting in her way. He fought the fight of his life against her, and by doing so, bought the Scientists enough time to escape the planet. After one final push against the woman with a new power achieved through the sheer will and desperation to survive… He succumbed to her harsh onslaught of attacks and died. The Galactic Patrol had lost an irreplaceable member that day, and Jaco was devastated. He swore to find a way to bring Reese back, so he began his secret mission to gather the Dragon Balls.
After his death, Reese found himself in on Snake Way. Following others across the Galaxy that had died and ended up on Snake Way as well, he would learn about, and eventually meet King Yemma and King Kai. Yemma judged Reese’s heart as good, but upon Reese’s request to train with King Kai, he directed the Hera to Otherworld to train under him as opposed to just going to heaven (Since in this Timeline, King Kai and Goku were still dead.) He was able to train intensely under the watchful eye of King Kai for years, and after 10 years of grueling training and learning his body’s limits, not only did Reese learn how to fly, but he was able to achieve Kaioken x50. Reese would’ve also learned more about the “Full Power” ability Heras have, but Jaco had finally gathered Namek’s Dragon Balls by then to wish Reese back to life.
While he was gone, the Galactic Patrol had taken Reese’s Ship and upgraded it with one of their first new Combat Programs. This program would allow Galactic Patrol Ships to morph in to large humanoid Mecha Suits that would follow their pilot’s moves. This way, Galactic Patrol Members were more equipped to deal with larger threats. Reese would continue to work alongside the Galactic Patrol and help everyone across the Galaxy in his new and improved ship. One day, he was taking it out for a Galaxy-Wide spin when he happened to intercept a Time Patroller in a heated battle with a fellow Time Patroller under the influence of Demonic and Villainous Energy. After subduing the out of control Patroller, the 2nd Patroller deemed Reese trustworthy to be introduced to Conton City and the Time Patrol. While Reese already had his hands full with working alongside the Galactic Patrol, he promised that he’d visit and help the Time Patrollers every now and then. During some of those visits, he was able to train with some of the Hera Time Patrollers and was finally able to get a grasp on the Full Power Hera Form. Despite his rough beginnings, Reese continues to be an inspiration to aspiring Galactic Patrollers and Space Pirates to this day.
I'm gonna post about the Cokhans sometime later. They're a fanmade race of mine!
