My Hero Academia Prints I Did For AX

My hero academia prints I did for AX

Fic writer aesthetic

- you just had a brilliant idea. it’s 3am - bonus: you have something important the next day - “wow I wrote so much, let’s see the word counter” 350 words “LIES” - when your worst work gets the most attention - “[AO3] You’ve got kudos!” emails are your lifeblood, water your crops, and clear your skin - B L A N K P A G E S O F D O O M - playing the entire story out in your head. never writing it - watching or reading anything ever and imagining an au - making playlists to write to. never writing - getting an “[AO3] Comment on ______” email and doing the thing. you know the one - headcanons. so many headcanons - spending days or weeks on a piece - watching the hit count rise and the kudos count stay on said work - when will the kudos return from war

Not gonna lie…he was one of the first characters that grabbed my attention to this anime. And he has become one of my all time favorites.

Me ever since starting My Hero Academia:

{\__/} ( • . •) / >♥️  i give this to everyone that is struggling right now. it’ll be ok.

Just because I feel like it, I want to do a personal shoutout to something that I never thought I’d be interested in.

Shipping. Specifically Rare Pairs.

As I started BNHA, I was content on love pairs simply being Izuku and Ochako, and that was all. (They are still one of my faves, don’t worry!) As time went on, I started coming across fanfics of BNHA, and started to look at them, and I came across one fic that made me do a double take.

Rock n Roll High School by TheJoshuaTree87.

It’s a discontinued fic (hasn’t had any chapters since 2018 as of now) and it had these two as the main romantic pairing.

And at first, I was like…

…what?….

How would this possibly work?

The two of them are just so…opposite!

But I decided to read it anyway, out of mere curiosity.

Two things happened.

I enjoyed EVERY chapter.

And I ended up looking forward to seeing these two as a couple!

Again, this hasn’t been picked back up in ages, so I’m not holding my breath. But I actually enjoyed it!

After that, it got me into digging around, and I started looking up more about shipping and eventually the term rare pair (which this pair very much is).

And the more I understood it, the more I ended up enjoying it.

Because I see shipping as something just to let the mind explore and have fun! That’s what is important at the end of the day after all, isn’t it? As a little thing to distract you from the main storyline if you wish.

And over time, I’ve had a number of rare pairs that I particularly love. IzuMomo, IzuTooru, Kirichako, Iida and Aoyama, Shouji and Ibara, Momo and Satou, Jirou and Koda, to name a few. As for MinaToko, I still like it and it’ll have a special place in my heart, but there’s another ship involving Tokoyami and a pink-themed girl that lives rent free in my head.

So what about you? Is there a special rare pair that you love? Is it your OTRP? Or maybe what started getting you fixated on rare pairs? Feel free to share! Just don’t start a fight now!
