because Inko is an important character. in a lot of shonen series, she may just be mentioned off hand and then just. forgotten

but Inko is an extremely important character to the series. she supports Izuku, she loves him, she worries about him, she stands her ground when she thinks Izuku is being put in more danger than his dream is worth at UA, she’s got her own agency, etc. she acts like a real mom

and Izuku always mentions her when he thinks about the most important people in his life. and those are his mom and All Might

The title says it all - here’s a more or less complete (*) compendium of all the available toshinko fanfics that me and the lovely peeps on Discord were able to find. Enjoy responsibly! 

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jL9Iid9CqWEopoekTOEV1XY-62XomVjxOEZ3ClcNMzI/edit?usp=sharing

(*) I am well aware that I’m probably missing a lot of stuff here. That’s exactly the reason why we started a spreadsheet in the first place - the idea is to keep it going and updated! So if you have written something and it’s not listed or if your favorite fic is not there please by all means send me a message (anon works too) and we’ll add it! [I’m especially looking at some mutuals I’m too shy to tag but seem to have a good fanfic knowledge if that’s a thing]

Likewise, if you are on this list and want to be taken off of it, please contact me. No need to give a reason, no questions asked, but please don’t be anon or I’ll never know it’s really you. 

All Might: there’s nothing I can do, the people.. Need me.

Inko: please don’t die

She said, "Yes."

This Greedy Heart of Mine

[Ok so… this was supposed to be a cheesy thing over Toshinori slowly realizing he fell in love with Inko but then as I was driving home today I thought about Toshi in… Elegant Thief Attire™ and well, I am very weak for this sort of things…]

No one would suspect that your local billionaire Toshinori Yagi (muscle form) is actually the mysterious thief All Might (true form)! Well, no one beside the newly appointed Detective Inko Midoriya, who didn’t really want this job - she was perfectly fine working in the Traffic Division, but since all other detectives have been fired or removed due to their failures in catching All Might and since she needs the extra money now that she’s officially divorced… here she is. But why would a billionarie steal very specific items from several art collections? Could it be that the stolen items are somehow linked and serve for a greater purpose? And why does All Might’s young sidekick remind Inko so much of her own son???

Follow the adventures of your local Noble Thief™ All Might as he tries to prevent the evil organization All for One from… doing evil things I guess, all of this while teaching the ways of Noble Thievery™ to his young successor and trying to steal the most important piece of all - the heart of a certain beautiful Detective, who totally stole his!

(This is what I mean yes)[Just for the shits and giggles: since Toshi is a thief and Inko works for the police, it’s like totally logic that Naomasa and Sansa are teachers at UA, your regular local school - there’s no quirks in this AU. 

The comedy in the show came from the family’s “odd” lifestyle, rather than from infighting and petty bickering, or worse, as was common on other shows of the time, thinly veiled references to spousal abuse. They didn’t make fun of each other or act like their children were creatures from another world. Were they strange and outside of social norms? Yes. Were they united in creating a loving home and being good, supportive parents? Absolutely.

These two support and adore their children, care for an aging mother and an estranged brother, put family before everything, and they love each other, wholly, fiercely, without reserve. They are every bit as much in love after at least a decade of marriage as they were the day they met.

It’s nobody’s surprise that many of the aesthetic and thematic elements of The Addams Family in its various incarnations are influenced by Gothic tradition (not goth, that mostly came later. And not Goth, that was much much much too early), and I think Gomez’s words are a dead bullseye in terms of Gothic mentality.

“Make her feel like she’s the most sublime creature on earth”

The sublime is a recurring theme throughout Gothic literature. Although the word (like “awesome”) has lost a lot of it’s original luster over the intervening decades, sublime doesn’t really mean elevated and lofty (or even heavenly) as it’s often used today, but rather something possessing the power and grandeur to induce awe and veneration in the mind of the beholder. Although less than divine, something sublime possessed a wildness and power that transcended human ability to control…or even to comprehend.

Sublime is standing at the edge of the Grand Canyon leaning as far as you dare over the railing and still not being able to see the canyon floor below. Sublime is warrior-queen Galadriel being tempted by the One Ring. Sublime is waking up in the middle of the night in the heart of a wild thunderstorm.

“Make her feel like she’s the most sublime creature on earth”

Gomez isn’t advising Fester to treat a woman he fancies like a princess, or even elevate her to pedestal of angelic nature (who’s idea was it to equate femininity with purity anyway? What a laughable and historically damaging idea. Shame on whatever dead (probably) white dudes promoted that!)

Gomez is advising Fester that if he truly loves a woman he must do everything he can to remind her of how she’s an untameable force of nature who’s grandeur brings him to his knees in awe and terror. Just like Morticia, for Gomez.

I’ll sign off with one of my most favorite quotes of all time, because it feels suddenly very relevant:

“When I find myself surrounded by so much beauty, I feel as if I am the eye of a hurricane.”
