‘Hero’ is a Subjective Term has reached chapter 30! Now, if only I could get inspired to write it more often than draw things for it...

Midoriya Izuku had a quirk. Medically, there was no reason he shouldn't. He only had one joint in his pinkie toes, the doctors confirmed that when he was little. He wasn't technically quirkless. His quirk registry file just said 'unknown'. Any day now, it could manifest. All along, he'd had that hope.

What cruel irony, that it would take him losing all hope to discover the damned thing.

He really had to hand it to Kacchan though. The jerk was dead wrong about him, but he'd gotten one thing right.

 Izuku did get a quirk in the next life.

I doodle too much, a saga

Going through the camera roll on my tablet has yielded just... so many random fanarts I never posted. I don’t want to post everything separately so have one long list of things! Enjoy:

A baby Todoroki, happy as heck, imitating All Might

The quality is sub-par, but I gave it a solid effort. It’s cheesy because they’re in each other’s shadows

I realized I’d never drawn Tenko in a school uniform, but it was also 3am, and I’m lazy, so this was all that happened. Will we see him in the regular school uniform too? Probably. I draw him too often

Eri-chan! As a teenager! In a hero costume! I vote her hero name would be Reversi. Yes her costume is heavily inspired by Mirio’s

Oh look, baby Shigaraki. This is why I wrote a fic where All Might adopts him, and he’s actually happy, because canon Tomura is not a very happy kiddo

I’m just gonna... leave this here... This is technically for the fic I’ll probably never write where Endeavor gets charged for child and spousal abuse and Touya/Dabi is Shouto’s strong male role model, but it’s also just cute. They’re smiling, neither of these kids smile enough

Ah look there it is, another Tenko. Also, Izuku! I drew this an eternity ago and it’s going to be another eternity before we actually see AFO Izuku in the fic so I’ll just toss this out there now

Wow, that was a lot! The art style is really inconsistent because some of these are almost a year old and the effort I put into each differed wildly, but there you go.

I changed my icon on AO3, if anyone was curious what it was now, here you go

Still so far off but I had an idea and it was too cute not to draw. Have a little preview of future Tenko and Eri, the shirts are mostly a joke. I don’t think Aizawa would allow anyone else to adopt Eri she’s his kid dammit back off All Might don’t you dare

Another side project that might happen. Concept: what if Endeavor lost custody of the kids after the boiling water incident with Rei, and Shouto ended up majority raised by his siblings (including Touya/Dabi because why not)?

Do I call it spoilers if I put it in the tags for the fic from day one?

A side project I might start posting at some point. This Izu has a fire quirk, no self-preservation, and no tolerance for Bakugou’s bs. He’s gonna fist fight the whole world, poor kiddo has no chill.

A soft sleepy boy. The plot doesn’t like him very much right now

Another hero Tenko, doing a cool action pose. drawing these seriously helps with writers block, should have the next chapter of ‘Hero’ is a Subjective Term up soon!

One misguided villain boy, ready to fight the world to save it

Woo, so, Tenko’s hero costume! Marked departure from my usual drawing style, felt like experimenting with something that looked a little more like the actual anime. Hoping this makes up for the lacking description I wrote in Chapter 5.

A hero costume for Shinsou, because this boy deserves one of those. May or may not be writing a fic where he gets into the hero course from the start.

My Hero!Shigaraki, who was taken in by All Might after spoilery bad times and gets into U.A. I have many drawings of him. Maybe too many. This au also promises some future vigilante-turned-kind-of-a-villain!Deku, so if you like that.

Summary:

At age 4, Midoriya Izuku learned he was quirkless. At age 5, Shimura Tenko learned he had one of the worst quirks imaginable.

Ten years later, All Might's protege enrolls in the U.A. High hero course, while the leader of the League of Villains prepares a war on the society that left him behind. The line between good and evil has never been so blurred.

After all, when was the last time U.A. took in a killer, or the world feared a villain without a quirk?

first post.

hey everybody! I’m Orion, and this is my mess of a fan blog for Boku no Hero Academia. I write dumb aus for my own amusement, and draw things that sometimes look nice. you can also find me on ao3 (orion_writes) and my other tumblr @anxious-aces.
