(Not counting the Sports Festival in which he was all covered up.)

And whenever he's interacted with parents or Guardians of the kids, he looked like this:

Now this is how Shouta usually looks:

Curly and wild hair, facial hair as well, dark eyebags, he's scared many characters just by his looks. (Ochako, Izuku, etc.)

Shouta is a man that has no care for appearances nor how others view him. And yet, he cleaned up in the name of his kids. He, or someone, straightened his hair, maybe even cut it a bit, he shaved, put on a suit and tie, I even think he could have put make up under his eyes because of the lack of heavier eyebags.

Now, we know this. Old news.

But consider:

There's a real possibility that the kids parents have never met Shouta when he was not dressed up, and do not know him as anything else but that cleaned up version.

Can you imagine you meet your kids teacher, he's quiet but polite and well kept. Very straight to the point and well mannered.

Time goes by, parents evening comes up and you're talking with all the teachers, asking about your kid's grades and such, you ask where the homeroom teacher is, Mr Aizawa, they point across the room, you expect to see that quiet but polite man talking to another parent maybe.

Instead you see a sickly tired looking man, curly hair unbrushed and knotted, he's holding a ugly yellow sleeping bag under his arm. He's drinking out of a jelly packet, next to him is a punk rock guy with the ugliest fucking moustache you've ever seen, and a woman who looks like she's from Victoria Secret.

[ Well that sounds familiar. In the middle distance, the pale figure, that Chronomancer, is walking towards your shop. He carries the limp (and ragdolling) body of one notable Pickpocket. ]

[ He seems to skip forwards a bit, standing before you in less than a second, as if by teleportation. ]

Right. Did I overshoot this again, or is this after we had or conversation about this idiot?

[ He nudges the Half-elf. ]

“Ya, you got it this time. Well it did happen after for me but still _____ should remember this time.”

I feel like Spyro could’ve had a show like MLP, he’s a small, cute, marketable creature. There could’ve been all sorts of other dragon younglings for Spyro to go on small adventures with, either in the Dragon Realms or Avalar.

One of the biggest purposes for queer people & alterhumans reclaiming the word “freak” is to use it in a positive light- to twist it around into a positive thing- because while people may be “freaks” or “freaky” about something, these things in question that set them apart are harmless in the grander picture of it all.

ex: someone who thinks & fully believes they are a dog (in whatever way) on its own is harmless even if it were to be perceived as weird or freaky- using “freak” in this instance is reasonable and fine. However if this hypothetical someone uses “freaky” to downplay or “normalize” the concept of grooming youth or sexually abusing animals in queer spaces- freaky no longer gets to be just a reclaimed word & starts being a possible excuse or justification for harm of unconsenting parties.

Trying to break a patient’s habit? Curse them to have pain when they do it.

wanna put them under without potentially damaging potions? Curse them to an eternal sleep only broken if they smell this thing (or the day ends)
