i love that if you ask Tommy what he thinks of Benny his answer basically boils down to ‘he’s shady as hell and doesn’t have a musical bone in his body but he’s an alright dude’ and then gossips about him if you pass a speech check.
What are your thoughts on Neil and Katelyn being friends? Either in your au or just in general. Personally I’m insane about it
SAME
Like if you’re asking realistically, if I was to write a post canon Neil and Katelyn friendship it would be that they don’t actually seek out each others company, but when they DO get together it is chaos for the twins. Like no one expected them to have that much or that kind of energy around each other. I don’t even know if I can describe it, it’s something adjacent to a sibling relationship with a wordless agreement to mess with Andrew and Aaron as much as possible and also having that step-sibling vibe that is both ironic hate and a little bit of real “still not a huge fan of u”. I do like Andrew being better with kids so Neil doesn’t necessarily have a special in with kateaaron’s girls.
But they get along completely well enough and are comfy around each other. My weakness for better post canon relationships for everyone strikes again
In the royal au it’s similar, obviously it takes even longer for Abram to be comfy/casual around the queen but once he is they have a fine time when they happen to around each other. As stated previously, he sometimes ends up watching out for her at parties and stuff bc Katelyn has always been incredible at sneaking away from her people - if she isn’t on Aaron’s arm she’s gonna be on Abram’s and like at least halfway drunk, if she’s not somewhere on the floor dancing. Since this universe (or at least Palmetto idk) doesn’t have super strict policy on dances and stuff, sometimes she convinces Abram to dance with her as long as there’s someone else near enough to keep an eye on the room around the prince. Andrew always rolls his eyes at their friendly/sibling-like affection but he’s also relieved Abram’s relaxing enough to allow it. He always lets Abram go dance (Andrew himself keeps the same arm-length distance from Katelyn that he does from everyone else). Aaron doesn’t mind either, HE’S just relieved she picked someone capable of protecting her to go drunkenly talk to when she disappears (he also likes the way she lights up when Aaron eventually comes to collect her. She’s very happy to see her beloved husband and I love that for them).
Anyway Queen Katelyn is very sweet to Abram (bc she’s a sweet person) and eventually yes they ABSOLUTELY cause chaos for the twins hehe
The worst take i keep seeing from Shouto fans themselves is complaining about Shouto not getting a flashy fight in his Rising chapter.
I’d ask you all go back to the Bakugou Rising chapter and read it carefully then show me what fancy fight Katsuki got there?
Spoiler alert: none.
He worried about Deku, played taxi to Endeavor, and then in the end saved Deku not by some finesse move, but by being actual meat shield.
Did he get praise for it? No.
Did he get thanks? No.
Was it focused on him getting a reward? No.
It was him, stepping up, showing his internal growth and when the time comes doing the right thing. Because it’s the right thing. Overcoming an ideal he couldn’t understand before.
Now go back and read Todoroki Shouto:Rising. Read the chapter, not some botched summary, not hysterical tweets by naysayers. Read it for yourself and think about what it is about. What is Shouto’s challenge? What does he say and what does he do?
