Oh my god Nonny, you’re supposed to convince me not to!!!
In a world where most of the population has a quirk, the mmorpg genre has long since lost most of its appeal and has become a relic of the past.
Or at least, that is until the game Elder Tales is released. Maybe it’s because of it’s fascinating lore, or its sophisticated mechanics, or maybe it’s simply that a world without quirks has become such a novelty, but the world goes crazy for Elder Tales.
It quickly grows to dominate the gaming market, and so maybe it shouldn’t be such a surprise when Izuku gets to UA, and finds that most of his classmates also play this game that has captivated his imagination since childhood. And the ones that don’t play are soon dragged into the game by their friends and classmates.
It ends up becoming a bonding point for class A in those first few months of school. But as months pass, as the League of Villains becomes more active and their school workload grows heavier, Izuku and his classmates slowly find themselves growing away from the game.
By their third year of high school, they barely even play anymore.
But then, Elder Tales announces their newest xpac - Homesteading the Noosphere.
And class A decides - what the hay. They’ve had a rough few months. The league of villains was finally defeated, their final exams are over, and summer break is about to begin. They deserve a break.
So they spend the weeks leading up to the release of the xpac questing and upgrading their outdated gear, getting ready for new adventures.
And on the night of the update, they’re all sitting in the computer lab on the first floor of their dorm building, joking around and questing together, just hanging out until midnight strikes.
There’s a palpable air of excitement in the room, and as the clock ticks closer to midnight, someone (probably Kaminari) starts counting down.
But something goes amiss. As the count reaches 1, there’s a bright flash of light, and the next time they open their eyes, they find themselves in Theldesia, separated, scattered across the server.
Izuku, Iida, and Todoroki had been in the market in Akihabara, unloading all their useless loot on merchants.
Momo, Uraraka, Asui, and Jiro had been thousands of miles away in Susukino, hunting for achievements.
Bakugou, Kirishima, Kaminari, Sero, and Ashido had been running a dungeon.
And the rest of the class had been scattered across various zones in groups of twos and threes, fighting monsters or just exploring.
They’re all disoriented at being misplaced, but after two full years with Aizawa as their teacher, how could they not be good at disaster management? Izuku and Iida immediately start contacting all their classmates, making sure no one is alone.
Within fifteen minutes, they’ve already made plans to meet up in Akihabara. The inter-city teleportation gates are all down, so they all have to travel the long way, by mounts. Luckily, all their combat training from school makes it a lot easier for them to get used to the fighting mechanics in this world.
Knowing that their classmates will need a place to sleep and gather together in safety, Izuku, Iida, and Todoroki immediately head to the Guild Building to form a new guild, and rent a Guild Hall as their temporary headquarters to figure out why the hell they’re in Theldesia, and how the hell they’re going to get back.
Iida insists that Izuku be the guild leader, because he’s always been the best at staying calm in the face of disaster, and reining in their rowdy classmates.
Izuku reluctantly agrees, that’s how the guild is founded.
/I wasn’t angry. I just didn’t want to get too used to calling you that. Because the war isn’t over, and you never know. /

gosh but like we spent hundreds of years looking up at the stars and wondering “is there anybody out there” and hoping and guessing and imagining
because we as a species were so lonely and we wanted friends so bad, we wanted to meet other species and we wanted to talk to them and we wanted to learn from them and to stop being the only people in the universe
and we started realizing that things were maybe not going so good for us– we got scared that we were going to blow each other up, we got scared that we were going to break our planet permanently, we got scared that in a hundred years we were all going to be dead and gone and even if there were other people out there, we’d never get to meet them
and we gave them names and we gave them brains made out of silicon and we pretended they were people and we told them hey you wanna go exploring, and of course they did, because we had made them in our own image
and maybe in a hundred years we won’t be around any more, maybe yeah the planet will be a mess and we’ll all be dead, and if other people come from the stars we won’t be around to meet them and say hi! how are you! we’re people, too! you’re not alone any more!, maybe we’ll be gone
but we built robots, who have beat-up hulls and metal brains, and who have names; and if the other people come and say, who were these people? what were they like?
the robots can say, when they made us, they called us discovery; they called us curiosity; they called us explorer; they called us spirit. they must have thought that was important.
and they told us to tell you hello.
So, I have to say something.
This is my favorite post on this website.
I’ve seen this post in screenshots before, and the first time I read it, I cried. Just sat there with tears running down my face.
Because this, right here, is the best of us, we humans. That we hope, and dream of the stars, and we don’t want to be alone. That this is the best of our technology, not Terminators and Skynet, but our friends, our companions, our legacy. Our message to the stars.
I’m flat out delighted, and maybe even a little honored, that I get to reblog this.
did humans invent math or did we discover it
i already regret making this post bc smart people keep messaging me trying to explain math and it’s making me nauseous
absolem0RebloggedstardustizukuFollowOkay but all those Quirkless Deku hcs (for both villains and heroes) fall incredibly short. We’re talking about the guy who could remember exact pages from his notebooks, who could read Bakugou’s moves like a fucking book, and went through two thirds of the fucking Sport Festival without using his quirk and working with a literal piece of metal and a jet pack. Izuku is AMANZINGLY smart and without a Quirk he would still have kicked ass and probably become way more inventive with the way he fights#bnha#true

absolem0Reblogged thespace-dragonaenramsdenFollowI want to see a fanfic where Harry hatches a basilisk.I want to see a fanfic where he looks up “magical snakes” as soon as he gets to Hogwarts because that thing at the zoo always bugged him, and so the Trio works out that it’s a basilisk immediately after the first petrification in Second Year. But they don’t know how it’s getting around or where it is or anything, so Harry is just like WELP SET A BASILISK TO FIND A BASILISK while Hermione and Ron are like HARRY NO.I want to see a fanfic where Harry sticks a chicken egg under a toad and makes all these plans about how he’ll talk to his huge deadly snake and get it eye-blinkers and shit so it doesn’t kill people and make sure it’s not too aggressive, and somehow it never occurs to his twelve-year old brain that the chicken egg has a total volume of about four tablespoons and he is not going to get the giant King of Serpents he is expecting.I want to see a fanfic where it finally breaks out of the shell and Harry finds himself with a bb!basilisk too smol to even have the murder-eyes yet, who can only petrify someone for about half an hour before the effect wears off. She eats spiders and gets tired very easily and demands that he wear a hood she can curl up in and sleep.(She is also the same vivid green as his eyes and already hideously venomous, but doesn’t like using her fangs because she says they get cold and give her brain freeze when she unsheathes them.)I just… I really want Harry with a haughty, demanding, arrogant danger noodle who has an overinflated sense of her own importance, views Hedwig as a TERRIFYING MENACE because she isn’t big enough to eat owls yet and keeps up a steady stream of insults hissed in Harry’s ear whenever she’s near someone who has a Dark Mark (which she can sense at close range). And who is basically useless as a familiar because she refuses to slither across anything other than sun-warmed stones or Harry, hasn’t got a very powerful gaze yet and doesn’t like biting people.(Except snake-arm-people. She finds snake-arm-people confusing and annoying, and would probably make an exception on the no-biting thing where they’re concerned.)thepiodenI mean there are obviously a lot of factors influencing snake growth rate but if we assume basilisks just get stupidhuge because they grow their whole lives and are immortal, this snake is probably going to be at least 8 feet long by Deathly Hallows, which is a significant and intimidating chunk of scaly muscle that is intelligent enough to do what it is told. Like, you know, hey, bite this necklace. So I mean by like his fourth year it’s going to be pretty hard to hide this snake that is nearly as long as he is tall and it’s not going to do much for his reputation that the Boy Who Lived has a pet fucking basilisk but holy damn does it make book seven a whole hell of a lot shorter. frosttrixI feel like I should write thistwinkie13can you just imagine him ron and hermione coming up with increasingly ridiculous excuses trying to hide their pet baby basilisk in the dorms (hagrid would be so proud). how long do you think it’d take before harry’s pet basilisk is just a really badly hidden secret between all of gryffindor? and the ensuring antics of the entire house as they try to keep mcgonagall from finding out? (she knows something is up, but even just thinking of what could be big enough the entire house is trying to keep it from her makes her want to break out the firewhiskey)ron gets the idea to try and practices parseltongue with baby basilisk since he hears harry talking in his sleep with it all the time anyway (and ngl, baby basilisk is kind of adorable and eats all the spiders in the dorm so he doesn’t have to deal with them, he’s pretty smitten once she hatches), and as soon as hermione overhears him trying it, she’s dragging him and harry to the library because, well, parseltongue is a language, why can’t they learn it? so it’s the two of them alternating between hissing at harry and hissing at the basilisk and harry is trying so hard not to laugh because 90% of what they’re saying is utter nonsense and the basilisk doesn’t even bother, because she likes these two humans but wow are they dumb, that’s not how words work.mzminola#i really wish jkr took more advantage of the parseltongue thing#it was so freaking cute when harry just chatter with the friendly boa constrictor at the zoo#it was such a nice boa constrictor#let harry met more nice snakes [tags via twinkie13]#hp
absolem0RebloggedskygemspeaksFollowmore on the bnha elder tales au:None of the UA staff were transported to Theldesia because they were all busy either sleeping, or in Aizawa’s case doing his job (the release of the xpac happened at midnight after all, and he does most of his work at night).But when he gets back to the dorms in the morning to find them eerily quiet, he knows immediately that something has to be up.With how boisterous his kids are, the dorm is never this silent, not at 7 in the morning, not even at 3 in the morning.He goes to the computer lab on the first floor, knowing that his kids had planned to stay up late for some kind of game or other. But when he gets there, he finds it deserted, the computer screens black. He sees a few personal items here and there, Midoriya’s notebook sitting in front of one of the computers, Mina’s fuzzy slippers on the floor in front of another chair, a half empty bag of chips at another spot.He’s a little annoyed, thinking that they went to sleep without cleaning up first. He goes to knock at Iida’s door, sure that the ever responsible class rep will be the most likely to answer at this hour.No luck. Starting to get a little unsettled, he goes to try the other boys’ rooms, but none of them answer either. He tries shouting, and still nothing.His gut is nagging at him that something is wrong, so he falls to his last resort - his master key. Never one to intrude on his kids’ privacy, he hesitantly unlocks Iida’s bedroom door, and his nagging suspicions are confirmed - the bed is neat, unslept in.He checks the other rooms on the floor, and they’re the same, no sign of his children anywhere.He hurries to his room, boots up his computer to check the security camera footage. They only have cameras in the common areas on the first floor, but he’s hoping to see when they left the computer lab, hoping to see when they might have left the dorm building.He brings up the footage from right outside the computer lab, counts all twenty of them filing in before the clock strikes midnight but then…nothing. He plays the plays the video at 10x speed, waits for them to leave the room, but they don’t. He searches the footage meticulously, but the door doesn’t open until 7, when he sees his own image go in looking for his students.He immediately goes to call Nedzu to raise the alarm, but as soon as the principal picks up-“Please tell me you’re not missing children too, Aizawa-kun,” he says immediately.“Too?” asks Aizawa.“I’ve been getting calls from nearly all the homeroom teachers this morning, complaining that some of their children have disappeared. Vlad is missing nearly half his class. There has been news of strange disappearances all over the world, although it does seem Japan was the hardest hit. They’re saying it has something to do with Elder Tales.”“Elder Tales?” asks Aizawa, mind racing. “Yes, that would make sense. My kids were planning to stay up all last night to play because there was some big deal happening in the game. Now all twenty of them are gone.”Nedzu is quiet for a long moment, and just as Aizawa is beginning to wonder if the connection had been cut, the principal lets out a little sigh. “Well,” he says, “that does take a load off my mind.”Aizawa’s brows furrow. “I fail to see how my children all having disappeared makes this situation any better,” he growls. There’s worry churning in his gut already, an instinctive need to protect his students.“Well, no matter where they’ve all gone, we can be fairly certain they were all sent to the same place, right? I’ve been worried sick about all our students from the gen ed, management, and support courses, and especially the first and second years. They’re not as used to dealing with unexpected situations as the heroics students are. Knowing that some of Vlad’s students were there too did reassure me a bit, but while I do have full faith in them, just the nine of them to lead and take care of almost 300 of our other students is just too much pressure on them. And that’s just our students - there are other civilians to think of too. But with all twenty of your kids there, I’m sure they will be okay. They were trained by the best of the best after all.”Aizawa reluctantly agrees. He knows his kids - their disaster management skills are on par with the pros, they’d been training for this for two and half years now. He has faith that they will survive, and that they will keep not only the other UA students safe, but the civilians too.But…“We have to get them back,” he growls into the phone, unable to stop the worry churning in his gut.“Of course,” says Nedzu, and there’s something dangerous in his usually pleasant voice. “We already have the best detectives and all the pro heroes on the case. They believe this situation might have something to do with the quirks of the Elder Tales devs, who have all conveniently disappeared over night.”Aizawa grunts in acknowledgement, already on his way out the dorms to find Present Mic. Like hell he’s gonna go to sleep now while the rest of the pros are out looking for his kids the missing people.“We’ll find them, Aizawa-kun,” says Nedzu, trying to sound reassuring. “And until we do, have faith in your students.”#bnha#aw yeeeeiiiisssss#i love this
