Dekus Dad - Tumblr Posts

Gonna be honest, I’m not anti Dad for one theory. I’m not pro dad for one theory. It exists and I find fun in both theories.

What I love more than the theories is the dozens of posts I’ve seen of fandom extremist infighting, where some people constantly hate on the theory like it killed their extended family all while attacking the character of anyone who would think such a thing was possible, while the other portion of fandom extremists on the complete opposite end of the fight are all all “HAVE YOU SEEN THAT AFO HAS EYES/HAIR/TWO ARMS AND LEGS/SITS DOWN/STANDS/HAS EMOTIONAL EXPRESSIONS?! SO DOES DEKU! THIS IS UNDENIABLE PROOF THAT HE IS THE FATHER AND IF YOU CAN’T SEE THAT YOU’RE [insert over the top insult here].”

I find this fascinating.

I want those two halves of this argument to go to anime paternity court. And I want Horikoshi to be the judge with the little envelope that, after listening to both sides go off, dramatically opens it up and announces to the two (usually deranged looking at this point when it comes to those shows) sides of the court room that “AFO? You… are/are not the father!”

Both sides absolutely will burst into tears. One side will start cussing at the other for reasons. One might even demand money for pain and suffering it put them through. Meanwhile the back of the courtroom (who are the people who are more chill about it) are just oohing and ahhhing over all of it and clapping at the end while the drama still continues.
