This year, I want you to be unapologetic when you create.
Don’t apologize for your writing, drawing, music, designs, films, sculptures, cosplays, knitting, sewing, cooking, and anything else I might’ve missed.
Don’t apologize for the quality.
Stop being afraid of what you can accomplish. You might think you can do so much better, well guess what? You will. You’re always improving. But if you start to apologize for the best you can do at this moment, then you might restrain yourself, stop yourself from taking risks that will help you.
I know this is a hard thing to stop. I do it all the time. When I submit art to people that I’m not so confident about, I’ll apologize in advance.
This year, I challenge you, and myself, to stop doing it.
The first thing to consider is Aizawa’s age. Aizawa is thirty years old at this point in the story, meaning it has been over fifteen years since he entered UA. While fifteen years may not seem like a long time, it is a very long time in terms of technology. It could have been entirely possible that the robots didn’t even existence at that point in time, or at least weren’t widely available. So there could have easily have been a different kind of entrance exam for UA. This explanation would make sense if Midnight was also a UA student, but I haven’t found any proof of her ever being a student.
Another possibility is that heroics wasn’t as widely popular or as easy to get into back in the day, so it would have been easier to get in with less competition. I doubt he was able to bring in a weapon. While UA has allowed items that augment candidates abilities, such as Aoyama’s belt, I doubt they would allow ones that would completely replace their abilities.
But out of all the possibilities, I prefer the idea that Aizawa went from General Education to the Heroics Course. Not only would it fit with the general theming of the series, it would also fit in with Aizawa’s character. Aizawa is very stern hero who expects the absolute best from his students. This would make sense if Aizawa was someone who had to struggle and work to even get a chance to be a hero, let alone actually being one. So what likely happened was Aizawa gets in, but only as a Gen Edu student. He proves himself in the Sports Festival and earns a spot in the Heroics Course. That’s why we see him in choosing hero names with Present Mic in the one flashback, as the process of choosing hero names takes place right after the Sports Festival.
Considering Present Mic’s Quirk, he would have very easily got in the Heroics Course, but not some much Aizawa as his Quirk isn’t as combat oriented.
Sidenote: Would it really be called pulling a Hitoshi if he’s never pulled it off?
Visit her 3 times without buying anything and the next time you see her she’ll hang out with you, get all her dialog option correct and go solo at prom and you’ll have yourself a cute kitty date ❤
Valerie is very easy to get along with so the relationship overall is uncomplicated.
Which is nice because there´s pretty much no pressure to be a certain way. You know that she is going to accept you either way. You wanna pick up yodeling? Cool make sure to show her sometimes. You´ve started wearing a cone on your head as a fashion statement? Nice you do you man.
Valerie trusts you to know what´s good for you and won´t interfere unless you´re seriously harming yourself.
Lots of cuddling!
She loves putting her head in your lap and letting you pet her hair. And yes. She purrs.
She introduces you to her friends, the Slayer and the Coven, and the six of you become the ultimate clique!
Valerie will often give you little gifts she originally got for the shop. She usually tells you not to ask where she´s got it from… but it´s still sweet!
She comes over unannounced a lot but it´s cool because if you´re busy she´ll either help or sit down and quietly do her thing until you have time for her.
(Since you said it´s optional I just wrote down a few things that were on top of my mind for NSFW!)
I would give Valerie the whole ass world. Also, this is written as if reader and Valerie are dating.
– Valerie is a very sarcastic and sassy person but she would use it to make her s/o laugh
– She is very protective and if someone gives her S/o trouble, she will give this person trouble tenfold if they ever visit her shop
-She uses some of the proceeds, alright I’ll be honest, she uses most of the proceeds and income from her shop to spoil her s/o with small things they will appreciate.
-Despite denying it every single time anyone brings it up, she loves cuddling and if you scratch behind her ears, she melts

Target Practice – when it first came out, the target was a metaphor for my ovaries, ngl
4. Fav emote to use
Oddly enough, I don’t really use Hanzo’s emotes on the rare occassions I play him. I guess the most used one would be his Chuckle emote since his laugh is really handsome ❤
5. Fav voice line
I love spamming ‘SAKE’ when I use him. ❤
6. How often do I use this character
Hardly ever. I feel like Hanzo takes a lot of skill to effectively play (without being a one trick) – even more so with the upcoming nerf. Still, the few times I do play him are very rare indeed. 7. What I hope to see from them in the future
I know it’s very unpopular to have this opinion, but I’d really love to see Hanzo…being more of that character that Blizzard gave us in HOTS. I want a cocky, not villain but not hero kinda character. That’d be really cool. I want to see him be an asshole…and just doing his own thing. :> Preferably with Symmetra
It’s fine if your self insert AU isn’t completely figured out yet. It’s okay if it never will. It’s okay if it doesn’t really differ from the Canon. It’s okay if it almost has nothing to do with the Canon. It’s okay if it’s a crossover. Nobody can judge you. As long as you are happy with your self insert, you’re doing everything right.
Abominable – I think it’s cute how she’s all bundled up.
2. My fav skin of theirs
Jiangshi! She’s so cute in that one <333
3. Their highlight intro
Frosty 🙂 is my favorite because Mei’s smiles are precious and pure!
4. Fav emote to use
Her ‘So Excited’ and ‘Yaaaaaay’ emotes are too adorkable I love them ;w;
5. Fav voice line
“Sorry, sorry! I’m sorry, sorry…”
6. How often to I use this character
Pretty often! I like to use her as a hybrid dmg/defense character – mostly when I’m bored and I don’t particularly want to play anything useful aka tank or support.
7. What I hope to see from them in the future
I would love to see more of Mei back with Winston and Tracer – maybe some official meetings with other characters – I’d love to see how she interacts with them officially. But mostly, I want to see more of what she does. Chu once said that Mei isn’t really like the other heroes that she’s used to combat. She’s just super smart and creative. The cinematic was great at showing this but I’d love to see more. ❤
Sombra is a little leech that feeds on McCree’s warmth so any time she is even remotely cold she will cling to him for cozy times.
McCree isn’t fluent in Spanish but he knows enough for a decent conversation. Sombra likes to teach him new words and phrases but when McCree actually uses them it turns out Sombra taught him some pretty vulgar stuff instead. Cue a very flustered McCree coming back to whine at Sombra for embarrassing him.
These two are pretty cute when they’re drunk. They get really snuggly, giggle a lot, and say a bunch of sappy, cheezy romantic stuff that they’d never say while sober.
McCree picks up Sombra a lot. Piggyback, over the shoulder, bridal style– he just enjoys manhandling her.
McCree likes to be old fashioned and flirts with Sombra the classic way: giving her flowers, candy, opening doors for her, pulling out chairs. Sombra, on the other handwill just walk by McCree, give a smack to his booty and leave him to blush and swoon on his own.
I love her ‘Shh’ highlight intro…so snarky and I think it sums up her personality quite nicely
4. Fav emote to use
The candy one!!! It’s so cute when people sit around you and say ‘thank you’ when you give them candy 😛
5. Fav voice line
Her ‘Justice Rains From Above’ – I wish Pharah could have this line as her ultimate!! (In her native language, ofc)
6. How often to I use this character
Quite honestly I don’t use her much – I wish I knew how to play her better. My aim sucks but I love to use her when I’m bored of playing Mercy or when I have a huge losing streak with Zenyatta (my main).
7. What I hope to see from them in the future
I honestly would love to see a comic or mini-cinematic of Ana and Pharah talking…there’s so much tension between them. And like, things don’t have to get patched up but I’d love to know more about Pharah in general as well as Ana and their relationship, how it was growing up and if Pharah, in lore, knows her mom is alive.
Her LA Gladiators skin. 🙂 Honestly I wish that outfit was her classic/actual color scheme…it’s just so sleek and awesome ❤
3. Their highlight intro
Who doesn’t love her ‘Hacking’ intro? 🙂 She’s so cheeky, I love her ❤
4. Fav emote to use
Her dance emote!!! She’s so adorable – love her shuffling <333
5. Fav voice line
‘I can be nice…’ I love this one because she sounds like she’s pouting. :3
6. How often to I use this character
Even less than most heroes under my play belt. I really don’t know how to play her. OTL
7. What I hope to see from them in the future
Just more of Sombra in general. I can never really get tired of her. She’s the only reason I got into this fandom/game so if there’s no news on her, my interest slowly wanes, at least on official material. I’d love to see more of her past – if she was orphaned as an infant/toddler/child, how exactly she came to join Los Muertos…her first exploits…her life growing up…I’d love to know if she eventually leaves Talon after getting what she wants…will she find what she’s looking for? I could go on and on.
2. My fav skin of theirs Blackwatch is my favorite – but Glam comes in close second ❤
3. Their highlight intro
Coalescence – the first time I got a POTG with her and I had this one equipped…I was so happy…in awe…I love Moira so much ; – ;
4. Fav emote to use Facepalm and Amused – they’re both so great…and Moira’s laugh does things for me.
5. Fav voice line “Good news, everyone” – I love using this when my team is close to winning. Also makes me think of Moira in a lab coat just like coming out of the lab and getting everyone’s attention.
6. How often to I use this character
Not as much as I’d like – I just find I get tempted to use her as more DPS than to heal which is what people expect ;_; But I love playing her.
7. What I hope to see from them in the future
Would love to see more interactions between her and Mercy, hell, even more of her between Gabriel, McCree, and Genji. I hate how Blizzard gives us actual interesting characters who aren’t all “uguuuu pure =w=“ but they don’t give us anything else with them… =/ Would love to see more of her and her work with Talon, as well.
