a trans lars hc thing… quotes from tiger millionaire

Here ya go:

Headcannons of Mineta with a s/o who loves how short he is, they just carry him around or help him reach for stuff. And comfort him whenever he's insecure about his height? (Bonus if the reader is also short and can't reach whatever mineta was reaching for lmaoo)

Comin’ right up! Headcanons of Mineta with an S/O who loves how short he is!!

-he loves when you pick him up and carry him around. Bridal style, piggyback rides, over the shoulder or under one arm like a sack of potatoes; he doesn’t care how you carry him, he appreciates it all.

-he loves it ESPECIALLY when he’s tired from training or hero work, he’ll cool off in your arms. he finds it relaxing (he’s fallen asleep like that more times than he’d like to admit)

-because Mineta’s short, any of your clothing will fit him! (Even if it’s too big) Which means that your wardrobe is now his wardrobe too. He usually takes your sweaters and hoodies in the evening or when you’re not with him and he misses you. Half of your shirts have now also been promoted to His Pyjamas.

-It’d be super comfy cuddling with him, you can just hold him like a pillow. And there’d be so much space left since he barely takes up any!! Suuuper comfy.

-he can just lay on top of you while the two of you cuddle and you wouldn’t feel crushed, it’d be painless. Soft, even. Since we all know he’s soft.

-now YOU are HIS pillow. Oh how the tables have turned…

-depending on how much taller you are than him, you can totally wrap your arms and torso and legs around him when you cuddle. He’s just kinda trapped then. But he doesn’t mind, to him it feels like a gigantic, warm, cocoon hug.

-your hands big, his body small. Need I say more?

-he can’t reach high shelves so he’ll ask you to grab stuff for him all the time. Only problem is, if you’re short as well, you won’t be of much help to him. WHICH IS WHY YOU TWO MUST WORK TOGETHER!! so whenever either of you needs something but it’s too high up to reach, you scoop up your bf and lift him up just enough so he can grab the thing for you. Or I guess you two could always climb up there. When that’s the case, he’ll make it into a competition. (And the winner gets a kiss from the loser)

-you tease him by grabbing this stuff and holding it out of his reach. When you’re feeling especially merciless, you dangle a magazine he was reading or his note/sketchbook right above him, just high enough that he can’t snatch it back from you. You might get sticky-balled but that’s a risk you must be willing to take. (When he jumps up to get his things back, you give him a kith on his forehead. He gets even grumpier then.)

-“excuse me, he asked for no pickles!”

-if you’re in the hero course as well, you two would be an excellent duo, and he’d feel encouraged by you to use his height to his advantage in battles. (Like in the joint training battles for example, when Mina swung him around and he bounced off his sticky balls, serving as little trampolines)

-when going to events which require you to pay an entrance fee, Mineta convinces you to wear a big jacket and hide him in it. You’ve smuggled your bf inside parties and theme parks more times than you’d like to admit, but you can’t deny his plans are clever.

-some evenings the two of you will dance to music in one of your rooms. You have to bend down quite a bit for you two to dance together, but it still works out. Mineta worries his height ruins the fun, however, so when you notice he’s starting to feel upset, you bend down to pick your boyfriend up and sway and hum to the music with him in your arms.

-Mineta gets insecure a lot about his height + overall appearance and of course you want to help him out. Any sort of physical affection always seems to cheer him up a whole lot. Compliments and flattery work wonders as well. Calling him handsome, beautiful, cute while holding his hand or cupping his face is bound to lift his spirits!! He adores it and will want you to keep going for hours, if that were possible.

-It’s no secret he’s jealous of Todoroki, so one day when he told you he was feeling down and self-conscious, you declared that “Todoroki holds nothing against you, his looks means nothing when he’s nowhere near as adorable as you are.” He cried. In a good way, obviously. But the tears wouldn’t stop flowing for about 20 minutes.

-Whenever you’re doubting yourself or feeling insecure about your body he’ll talk with you about it. Mineta might not be the best at comforting others, but as your boyfriend, he will take it upon himself to make you feel better!! Afterwards, Mineta showers you in the most cheesy, sappy and sometimes distasteful compliments. But you appreciate it nonetheless, it’s how he shows his love.

So today I wanna talk about a somewhat controversial topic. Let me preface this by saying that I am no means a Minoru Stan. I’m pretty neutral about his character but I completely understand the hate he gets due to his actions.

However, a pet peeve of mine is how people write Minoru in such a negative light that it becomes OOC, especially when they write Katsuki in an extremely positive light when both of them have done extremely shitty things. Let me break down some stereotypes that fanfic writers fall into when writing Minoru:

Homophobic/Quirkist Minoru: Something that is constantly done in MHA to villainize a character they don’t like is to make them either homophobic or quirkist when they aren’t in canon. Focusing on the homophobia part, Minoru’s a victim with this alongside other characters such as Neito and Inko. A lot of authors will write Minoru as this homophobic asshole who sprays out slurs and will bully whichever character(s) has come out. With Minoru, the idea that he’s homophobic comes from him being a sex obsessed person who’s always lusting after women. The thing is, Minoru displays absolutely no homophobic tendencies whatsoever in canon. You know who does? Katsuki. In one of the light novels, he asks Ejiro if he’s ‘into that’ with a disgusted tone when it was revealed Ejiro wore a dress once. Minoru on the other hand has never said anything negative about the LGBTQ+ community. For fics to have Katsuki be the one to defend the LGBTQ+ community and have Minoru be disgusted by it screams “let me villainize Minoru so Katsuki can look good”. In regards to whether he’d be quirkist, that’s also a resounding no. In fact, he apologizes for calling Mezou an octopus after hearing how he’s been discriminated against and tells Izuku that it was his bravery that inspired him rather than his quirk. Minoru also canonically has self confidence issues with his own quirk not being as flashy as other people’s so he’d be more empathetic towards someone who doesn’t have a quirk. Katsuki meanwhile bullied and suicide baiting someone who didn’t have a quirk because he saw him as beneath him.

Coward Minoru: Now, in canon, Minoru is more fearful than his classmates. However, fanon would have you think that he’d abandon his classmates to save his own skin. Canon once again disproves this. During the USJ, he was panicking, for a good reason mind you, but inspired by Izuku taking action even when he was afraid for his own life, he ended up aiding Izuku and Tsuyu in stopping the villains. During the Final Exam, he did initially cower against Midnight. A few moments later, he gathered the courage to not only go against Midnight, but to save his partner Hanta from her clutches. This proves that despite his fear, he wouldn’t leave someone as a result of it. You know who would leave someone? Katsuki. In the Final Exams, Katsuki refused to work together with Izuku to the point of admitting that he’d rather fail. It took Izuku sucking up to him to actually convince him to work with him. When it came time to rescue Katsuki, Izuku knew that he hated him so much that he’d never accept his hand, so he had Ejiro reach out to him instead. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have Minoru as a teammate than Katsuki.

Now, does this mean I think fanfic writers HAVE to write Minoru in their fics? Absolutely not. Are fanfic writers not allowed to expel him? Again, no. Alongside Katsuki, Minoru’s the easiest character to expel. He’s constantly groping and harassing the female students. All an author needs to do is have one of the girls become so fed up with him that they report him to a teacher. Boom! Problem solved, and it didn’t even involve jumping through hoops to make a character look worse than they actually are. Another way you can remove him is have Shota expel him during the Q.A.T. Minoru, despite his fantastic score in the side step test, scored below the guy whose electricity based quirk can’t help him with any of the exams, the girl with an earphone jack quirk that faces a similar problem, and an invisible girl who struggled to do a pull-up. Shota could look at this, somehow notice him being creepy to one of the female students during the exam, and expel him for these reasons alone. If you wanna remove him from the story later, you can either have one of the girls get the teachers involved or you can say that Minoru decided to drop out of the hero course after experiencing the War Arc or something along those lines. Seriously, it’s not hard.
