A Theory about Shouto's and Touya's birthdays
I've been thinking again about the meaning of Shouto's and Touya's birthdays. What if Shouto's birthday is 111 because it's like the winning combo on a slot machine (getting three ones is a particularly good sign in light of Endeavor's aim to raise a son to be No 1) and Touya's birthday is 118 because he's only "almost perfect"?
And then I did some further research, and sure enough, the in the 18 in Touya's birthday the kanji for 1: 一 (ichi) and 8: 八 (hachi) can be found in the following Japanese gambling phrase:
一か八か = ichi ka bachi ka, “one or nothing”, or literally “one or punishment” - i.e.: a high risk gamble or something like "go for broke".
As in the phrase:
一いちか八ばちかやってみよう。
Ichikabachika yatte miyō.
I’ll take my chances.
So now I'm 99% convinced that Shouto's and Touya's birthdays are a refence to Endeavor gambling with the kids as if they were prizes in a pachinko slot machines / was playing child gacha?
(Also - Hori's sick sense of humour)
do you think kurogiri sees the back of dabi (black hair), toga (blonde hair) and shigarakis heads (blue hair) together and part of him is reminded of when he was with aizawa and yamada
might draw this later
hawks would start a list and then start doodling dabi’s body 3 bullet points and make a decision

no because its that they're the fear responses. the todoroki children are all just the fear responses. touya is fight, natsuo is flight, shoto is freeze, and fuyumi is fawn. when you stare down abuse every day you have to react somehow, and they all just developed different methods of coping with it
Found WIP. I won't finish this but they're too perfect to be kept hidden.
Everyone's...watching...Is that all it was? Something as simple as this? I wish I'd realized sooner...
Run and Go Au Todosiblings!!!
I feel like a lot of people tend to forget that Touya was only a baby in his backstory.
Touya's quirk was discovered when he was less than a year old.
Touya was born in January, and Fuyumi was born in December of the same year. We see Fuyumi as a baby in this panel, and they already know about Touya's quirk which means it developed almost immediately after his birth.
Shouto began training when he was 5(ish), while Touya had started training much younger. Touya's lack of fire resistance was found out when he was only around 4 years old. He was not "old enough to know better". He was a child who'd lost his fathers love and sense of self worth in a span of 5 minutes, and didn't know how to deal with it.
I understand disapproving of his actions once he became an adult, but the things people say about him when he was js barely out of diapers are so nasty. How can you hate a child that much?? He acted out because that's what his only role model taught him to do?? He was practically taught that violence is the answer, and gets blamed for lashing out. How about we blame the abuser this time!! Just to switch it up for once.
breakup was so bad it was broadcasted on national television
I felt like drawing dabi with even more piercings today
Here is a small piece of chapter two of my fic that i have talked about before,, it might not stay in the final draft, idk, but i like it!
Right now the name of the fic is 'Is It Cold Outside?' but it might change at some point.
Todoroki Enji, most commonly known as the Number Two Hero; Endeavour, was a perfect and beloved hero. To civilians, maybe. To kids whose parents told stories of great heroes, probably. But, if you asked his family, you would get vastly different answers.
Todoroki Touya loved his father. Admired him with all of his being. He wanted to be exactly like him when he grew up. He was the eldest of four, and so, it was his responsibility to look after his siblings. But, in his heart was a dark and cold feeling that screamed at him everyday.
New fic I'm making called Fires & Feathers!
