#and indeed

They taped an air horn under his office chair while Price was out on a coffee run, then sat back and waited for Price to come back.

Except instead of started flailing and cursing, Price seized once, grabbed his chest, and passed the fuck out.

Gaz and Soap had picked Price up and were halfway to the medical wing before they realized Price was just about dying trying not to laugh, and had not, in fact, had a scare-induced heart attack like they’d assumed.

the thing w dabi and misogyny is that it's so complex and interesting but horikoshi genuinely did NOT careeeeeeeee ab any of that one singular bit man it makes me sick 😭😭😭😭😭😭

like personally i don't think people should be reduced to the worst of them especially if the "worst" of them isn't even remotely close to being their actual worst and also happened when they were 13 bc seriously who among us wasn't evil at 13? exactly. dabi doesn't show any bias against women as an adult, not even casual "normal" misogyny and like the real reason for this is really that horikoshi didn't actually care about any of that as part of his characterization i seriously cannot stress this enough he just added that in for the sake of showing how touya has always been difficult and a bitch to everyone without really having any intention of exploring any of it later or beforehand and it really shows like i need everyone to know this so so urgently.

however, staying watsonian for the sake of blorbo enjoyment, this implies that at some point after setting on his quest to traumatize his father back, he did consciously decide to reject that mentality as part of rejecting his father? see because it actually makes perfect sense for touya to have crazy misogynistic bias. touya always knew the purpose for which he was created and the reason why his parents had gotten married, both he and his mother were just pawns for enji's goals. since he was born his family worked with strict gender roles and despite being as much his parent as enji, rei's level of authority or agency regarding touya growing up was always minimal, even during the good times she was little more than a glorified nursemaid going by the way enji treated her. she was never his equal and touya was always a perceptive kid; both he and fuyumi caught onto the gender roles modeled to them since early on and internalized them deeply. what enji modeled for touya was that strenght and heroism were masculine traits ("girls wouldn't understand it"), that femininity was weak, inferior and useless (the whole thing with his hair turning white like his mama's and his body not being able to handle his quirk because it's meant to have an ice quirk like his mama followed by enji's rejection and emotional abandonment) and that his worth depended on his usefulness and his usefulness depended on his ability to be like endeavor the pinnacle of hypermasculinity, which naturally led to the conclusion that the women in their family were useless because enji's behavior reflected that idea.

however this all happens in a very subconscious level as it was taught to him in a subconscious way as well (enji doesn't SAY or consciously believe that women are lesser, but he acts that way) which is why those attitudes only come out when he's emotional and feeling rejected which if you notice is a common theme in all three instances of this. he reaches out to fuyumi for connection by asking for her opinion and quickly starts venting, wanting understanding, but fuyumi expresses concern and since he's already internalized that vulnerability = weakness, it feels like rejection and he lashes out and says she wouldn't get it because she's a girl. then when he's venting to natsuo, natsuo doesn't fully engage and tells him to talk to fuyumi about it instead, and that too is rejection + that earlier experience, it makes him lash out and say the women in their family are useless and wouldn't understand him. lastly when rei tries to stop him from going to sekoto peak and encourages him to do something else than try to be a hero, that too is a form of rejection since he knows she doesn't believe he can do it, so he lashes out again. and each time misogyny comes out because his father is his model for strenght and identity and enji todoroki is a man who has always responded to feeling weak by exploiting the power that misogyny gives him.

so again, this behavior is a result of internalied subconscious bias on touya's part and not conscious feelings of hatred towards women, which is why i find it ridiculous when people try to imply that touya hated rei. touya loved his mom and sister and after waking up from his coma his first thought after wanting to see his dad again (bc that's always no.1 ofc) was that he'd said horrible things to his family and had to go apologize to his mom. because again, those aren't beliefs he consciously willingly holds but rather absorbed from his father, and he said those things while actively spiraling. touya todoroki loves his mom and if he hates his mom it's because he knows he is much more like her than he is like his father who he's tried his whole life to imitiate.

See? It's posted... not entirely late! Baby steps. I'm so glad the last 5 were fairly easy, because I did them in 1 sitting the day of to get them done in time. While very, very hot. Did I mention the heat? Anyway! It's a very normal and quite cute week for Monster March.

78. Fetcherfly

Now, I'll admit that this one barely made the list with all the other fantasy and monster additions. But, I don't have nearly enough bug representation. And bugs are cool! When they're... far far away from me, preferably behind a screen. But a big glowy stingy bug? That's pretty cool

79. Three Frogs and a Toad

One of these things is not like the other... and maybe if you can't read, it would be a surprise. But also, I have no restraint. It's World Frog Day, and obviously I wanted to do a poison dart frog. Problem was... I couldn't actually choose a single one. And then I also found a picture of a Harlequin toad on my phone, and it was all over. Worst part is? This is only the first time I did a quartet.

80. Dragonbat

The Cabin in the Woods was one of the first horror movies that I actually willingly watched. And the reasoning should be pretty obvious... Cool creatures! I remember drawing the giant cobra as a kid as one of the first times I actually drew all the scales on a snake. And that elevator scene... But yes, the dragonbat was my favorite. And I called it Bella because I always loved horrific creatures with cute names.

81. Mediterranean Monk Seal

Seal! Seals are such a blessing for this project... So easy to color, so cute. And the monk seal is a special one, my favorite from Endless Ocean! Just so cute, and equally so in real life, so it was my first choice for International Seal Day. Solid seal right there, we love.

82. American Black (Cinnamon) Bear

For World Bear Day, I switched between a few different bears. I thought about grizzlies, and regular black bears, and then... I found a picture of a 'cinnamon' black bear. Bro. The blondie of black bears?? Love. Instantly. I put that on the list so fast. She looks a lil wonky right now, but trust. Cutest bear I've ever seen.

83. Echatere

And this bear is less cute... but also still pretty cute? I remember playing a mod with this in Skyrim, and it was the absolute bane of my existence. But it's such a fun, funky design. This is what I want in fantasy! Weird insect bear with a shield crest and tusks! And somehow, just a babey.

84. Amazonian Manatee

Manatee Appreciation Day! I appreciate Mama Cortica, that's for sure. She's got a fancy white chest patch, she's got a lovely moss coat. Once again, I love the Legendaries in Endless Ocean, and I'll take any excuse to add them to my list. I also appreciate how easy this was to finish. That too. But also because cute!

Oh wow~! It's already been a whole year since I made this Inter-Knot alt account!

A lot can happen in a year!

Time sure flies as you get older...~!

It's my 1 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
