They brag to each other about their partners♥
I finally got around darning the toe of my favourite knitted socks!
I’ve had them for six years at this point and basically live (and sleep) in these socks all winter, and they are starting to fall apart; but I will darn them until nothing of the original yarn is left and then some more! They are from some generic fast fashion brand and I’m kind of surprised by how well they hold the constant use.
The purple yarn originally served to tie together a pair of leg-warmers my mum gifted me from a super cute and knitting and sewing shop. It was the perfect length to darn the hole in the toe of my sock.
The blue darned patch is from last year, I think, and it’s some sort of poly yarn leftover I found in my mum’s box of miscellaneous sewing and knitting supplies. I just had to pull in a few threads that came loose before they broke.
one day taka is super late to class and he starts panicking and mondos like "TECHINICALLY IF YOU GET ON MY SHOULDERS AND I RUN IT'S NOT AGAINST THE RULES" so taka ends up riding ten minutes late into class gladiator style
(or alternative ending where mondo forgets to duck and taka hits his head on the doorway, thus missing the entire class to get stitches)

In the desolate aftermath of a catastrophic battle, Aizawa Shouta trudged through the debris, his soul weighed down by the heavy burden of grief. The once-vibrant city now lay in ruins, mirroring the shattered pieces of Aizawa's heart.
Amidst the wreckage, he discovered Mic's lifeless form, a stark contrast to the dynamic hero who once filled their lives with laughter. Aizawa cradled Mic's cold body, his anguished sobs echoing through the desolation as he clung to the remnants of a love lost in the chaos of heroism.
The days that followed were a numb blur for Aizawa. He moved through life like a ghost, haunted by the absence of Mic's infectious energy. UA High felt empty without the sound of his partner's laughter reverberating through the hallways.
Aizawa's erasure quirk, once a symbol of control, now served as a bitter reminder of his inability to erase the pain within. The hero known for his stoicism found himself crumbling under the weight of sorrow, unable to escape the suffocating darkness that enveloped him.
As the city began to rebuild, Aizawa remained a solitary figure, a silent guardian haunted by the specter of loss. The world moved on, but Aizawa existed in a perpetual state of mourning, forever tethered to the memories of a love that once illuminated his life but was now extinguished in the relentless march of tragedy.
I have been feeling the urge to make a Bard-Dûr cosplay recently. Like a dress but it’s the tower and a hat with the Eye of Sauron on top of it. I just don’t have any occasion to wear it nor the space and money to make it…
Shinsou Hitoshi, disheartened by his defeat in the Sports Festival, does everything in his power to transfer into the heroics course, with a little extra help.
A story exploring the "what-ifs" of Shinsou's training prior to his return, becoming more and more canon-divergent as my desperate desire to give Shinsou what he deserves runs wild.

Fic Rec round 1
TW: suicidal thoughts
Summary:
Midoriya Izuku's bad relationship with heights started at a young age.
It had started festering when he first hurt himself falling.
It grew violent when he first learned what it felt like to fall out a window.
And it turned into cold hatred when he first learned that jumping didn't always mean getting away, sometimes it meant getting trapped.
But as much as he hated heights, Izuku thought it looked pretty from 30 meters up high.
It was also weird, he thought, that in movies they portray people as crying, screaming, whimpering, and being so emotional as they stand on the edge.Izuku just felt empty.
A sense of calm finality.
This was it.
This was how he was always destined to end up.
He closed his eyes and breathed.
"Midoriya, step away from the edge, kid."
And Izuku’s eyes shot open.

Yalllll I cannot even express how good this writing is. 100/10, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, whatever you call it. Its P R I S T I N E
If canon!Spinel rotates her gem upside down, would swap!Pearl flip her gemstone from front side to back side?
Sure! Except, it wouldn’t really have quite the same impact would it?
I recently saw a post lamenting how expensive sewing as a hobby is, which has been nagging me all day and of course now I can’t find it anymore.
It is, in fact, quite an extensive hobby and you can get bogged down by the capitalism monster thinking you need to buy a ton of things right away. You don’t! I’ve been sewing most of my life and have been slowly collecting tools and things as I need them but you can start off real small! Here are some random tips from me to you:
Sewing patterns: there are butt loads of free patterns all over the internet. Check out Mood patterns, Peppermint magazine, and your local library for the pattern bind up books if you’re lucky. However, indie patterns are totally worth the price, especially for beginners. They tend to have great instructions and better fit than the paper patterns you can find in stores and they come from people with a real passion for sewing. If you’re going more historical costuming, some of the free patterns can be finagled, but your best bet (besides drafting) is to purchase patterns depending on your era, just avoid Sense and Sensibility patterns. You can also find vintage patterns, but the instructions and fit are a tad different than you may be used to, especially for beginners. Shameless plug anyway for my vintage pattern shop.
Fabric: don’t be scared of your thrift store! Ive found lengths of fabric a couple times, but I always check for sheets and tablecloths that I like the look and feel of. You can get natural fibers wayyyy cheaper this way and tho it’s an extra step you can dye or overdye to get the color you want. The black fabric in this stack was faded so I dyed it darker black with Rit and the yellow I dyed with marigolds from my garden.
Notions/random bits and bobs: ask your friends and family! Sewing used to be basically ubiquitous and has gone out of style so as a result there are more vintage sewing supplies in the world than you could ever want and usually people hold on to them until they can find a good home. I’ve gotten so much random bullshit from my mom and grandmas and friends just by announcing that I love to sew. Obvi don’t be rude or conspiratorial, but esp older folks love to share their love of the craft.
Machine: cheapest is to inherit one, but you can usually find some older models at thrift stores or on Craigslist/fb marketplace. I found my serger for a decent discount from a company that refurbishes sewing machines.
I hope this helps anyone who is interested in sewing but scared of the starting costs. It’s a bit of a learning and cost curve, but the internet has helped break that down so much.
