I am shocked it took this long for someone to ask for her

It’s honestly such a small minority of the fandom, I’ve only seen like two or three people with very weird takes on Tumblr itself- actually I see more of them on Instagram, as well as the mainstream fans who don’t really look past a surface level view of the show and characters. Apparently it’s pretty common on Twitter from what I’ve heard but I can’t really speak for that because I don’t use it haha.

Tumblr is the only site that you can really get all that deep into character analysis without having to take shortcuts in how you explain things so I think it makes sense that generally, people tend to have better, more developed takes in meta here. It’s kind of the whole problem that comes with how much people tend to essentialize things on Twitter and details in narratives get lost- and I think the same tends to happen on Instagram for similar reasons in how the website/app is formatted.

Even then though, I think the majority of the fandom is pretty tame and doesn’t believe anything too crazy, and considering how inconsistently the show is sometimes written or how open ended some stories are, it makes sense people would come to other conclusions that sometimes seem way less sensible, but I think most of those people are probably very chill as well even if their view on the characters seems super warped.

Mm. I’m willing to concede that Dabi being full of prejudice is my reading, my interpretation, and that other people won’t agree. I’d debate the disagreement because i’m stubborn 🤡, but ultimately I get it’s my take, and maybe i can be totally wrong lol

Let me know if you guys are interested bc praise is the only motivator I have.

Without his wings, the Commission didn’t need Hawks. They took care of his hospital bills, saw that his burns were treated well, formally retired the Number 2 hero (Hawks hated paperwork), and sent him home in a taxi. After all, he wasn’t flying back to his apartment.

He stumbled back into his apartment in a daze. He hadn’t been home in so long--he’d been in the hospital for days, and staying with the Paranormal Liberation Front before that. He’d left his place messy, which only further demoralized him. He noticed a trail of ants going back and forth from a moldy pizza. Great, he thought.

Rather than deal with it, he walked listlessly into his bedroom and collapsed on his bed. He missed having his own bed, his own blankets and pillows and his own Endeavor plushie from when he was a kid. But now, that stupid childish love of Endeavor made Hawks feel sick.
