My take on what could possibly happen if these two interacted in the vestige world again lol
Mi corazón crujió como una galleta cuando la muerdes.💔
Kudou and Yoichi only had two months before AFO killed his brother. Two months. Imagine that in those two months, Yoichi lived in constant fear, not only that AFO would find him, but that he would also find Kudou, knowing all too well how cruel and heartless his brother was and what he would do to Kudou if he found him. But Kudou is kind and patient, he shows him a side of humanity that Yoichi has never experienced, and over those two months, he starts to feel hope again. When Kudou reaches his hand out to him again, he takes it, and when Kudou leans in and offers him the world, he wants it. When Kudou kisses him for the first time and promises them forever, he believes it. But hope is an exquisite pain. And when his brother finds them the morning after their first and only night together, his last thoughts are of the warm hand still holding his.
Alright, gn
happy yaoi friday to bakugo's bisexual peepaw and afo's bishonen brother
Kudo siendo extremadamente rápido sin ninguna razón está en el personaje.
bruce and yoichi being extremely slow walkers who like to enjoy the view as they walk whereas kudo speed walks for absolutely no reason and has to wait a few minutes until they reach him
Totalmente canónico, Lol.
Once upon a time, in the OFA vestige world
"... you should smile more."
"Smile more? Oh god no, I hate my smile!"
Yoichi looks like he could get held by the back of his shirt easily and look like a baby cat while it's mother is holding it
second won't do it but third has.
Yoichi being your favorite character means heartbreak
Ch 407 leaks man, they sure were something 💀
Here’s a goofy little animation to cope with the pain 🙃
(High volume warning btw)
Absolutamente adorable.
awww poor Yoichi :(
Hmm, do you have any immortal headcanons?
I felt so sorry for him the whole time I was writing that AU. But yes, I do have some immortal OFA users headcanons.
Note: This time, an immortality quirk got mixed in with stockpile, so the users all had to fake their deaths. The headcanons go from there.
Yoichi had fun writing the books he always wanted to write, but under a pseudonym of course. His brother hates his books of course and vows to hunt down the author. (Yoichi does change pseudonyms and stuff every few years)
Also, once every few years, Yoichi will get HOOKED on some trend. It lasts about twice as long as it takes for the trend to die down.
Second married Yoichi and while he wanted to just steal what they needed; Yoichi convinced him to get money in a more ethical way. So, he became a mechanic. The only bad thing is they have to move every few years as they look the same age they were when they passed on OFA. Like the vampires in Twilight.
I headcanon Third as aro/ace, so this is a duoholders universe.
Also, Third becomes a therapist. He figured he would be qualified after so many years being the therapist friend. And he is good at it, but he also runs into the Twilight issue. Even so, the 3 are never far apart from each other. Third does have his own place, but he's always there if the other two need anything and vice versa.
(I have a weird version of trioholders where, while the first two holders are romantically involved, their friendship with Third runs so deep, that if he died, they would be destroyed. Same with Yoichi and Second. They all need and understand each other in a way so deeply, it goes beyond any normal intimacy. Like, platonic soulmates I guess is the best word for that.)
Hikage lives in the woods. After 18 years of being chased around, he decided to fake his death and give OFA to Banjo. So, now he lives with the forest creatures in peace. Third still drags him out for the occasional family dinner though.
Banjo uses his extra immortal time to become talented at, not just normal hobbies, but really weird stuff like peeling a banana with his feet like a monkey. In addition to bothering Hikage, he decided to try his hand at a childhood dream and become a cowboy. That didn't work out, so he travels the world instead.
My headcanon for En is that he had 5 siblings, so immortality would give him a lot of grieving to do. However, I also headcanon him as a lover of reptiles and technology, so he used his immortal time to get acquainted with all the new tech coming out each year and finally get a pet chameleon. He also got a degree in Graphic Art. However, he chooses to make his money by doing commissions.
Nana did give away her son after her husband died, but only until she faked her death. Then she got him back, so Kotaro doesn't end up being as bad, but there's definitely still some tension between them as she didn't tell him about her plan. She hides away, with Gran Torino helping her try to raise Kotaro as normally as possible. Meaning his last name does end up changed because Torino adopts him, but he co-parents with Nana. It's complicated. At least Hana and Tenko are happy children with grandparents who spoil them and a better dad. Nobody wants to be on the bad side of both Nana and Gran Torino.
Toshinori did not know about the immortality thing. Nana forgot to tell him, and he just thought his master had really good genes. So, he has the same knowledge in canon. In fact, his life is pretty much like canon, as they figured it was best that he goes to America for a bit to keep AFO away from Nana's hiding place. He also gets into the same fight with AFO, but sustains the same damage. You see, the immortality quirk doesn't keep them from getting hurt, it just keeps them from dying.
Oh yeah, remember the family dinners Hikage gets dragged to? Those are between every OFA user. Toshinori just thinks they're historians who love to joke around. He has to believe it at this point. At least they only happen once a year, unless there's an emergency, like a new user or a faked death. Or, AFO dying (is he dead?)
Then Toshinori brings Izuku to OFA family dinner. Cue the awing over the new user (who looks oddly familiar). There was some worry over how Izuku would adjust to the quirk, but they all assumed All Might had it figured out. That man was taught by someone who beat the crap out of him daily. All Might did not have it figured out.
(After the AFO fight, the other users convinced All Might to get a hobby or something, so he decided to try and get the credentials to become a teacher, because he always loved children. The credits to become a kindergarten teacher that is, so the jump to high school is still going to take some adjustment. Not to mention training a middle school boy to handle a quirk you gave them. I don't think there's a book on that.)
After the entrance exams, out of worry for their new user, all the vestiges move to the Musutafu area around UA to help with Izuku's training. The users get along great with Inko (who was told about OFA.) And Yoichi's brother and Inko's husband sure have a lot of similarities. What a coincidence...
From here they get upto all sorts of school-themed hijinks, but I'll let you imagine them. (The eventual meeting with Aizawa is always a fun one to imagine)
Uh... this did not turn out how I thought it would. It was supposed to be random headcanons and not a story outline. I did keep some stuff vague on purpose. Anyway, I hope you liked it :)
Shadow of the Forgotten
My submission for @aimportantdragoncollector ‘s Three Weeks of Triholders, (Although this piece is featuring Duoholders 😅)
I created an au based around a Nyavka Yoichi and a woodsman Second . .
Nyavka are a type of Mavka, a spirit in Ukrainian folklore.
One prominent feature is that Nyavka have no back so you can see their spine . . . They often live in bodies of water like rivers or lakes in the forest (my mother for instance first told me about them as a way of warning me away from a nearby river lol). Some interpretations have them leading men to their doom and drowning them, while other interpretations have them being more benevolent caretakers of the forest although these two are not mutually exclusive!
While I'm no writer and am still coming up with ideas I believe this au would go something like this:
Yoichi and AFO were born in a mountain village surrounded by forests and bordered by a fierce river The village believed the twins to be unlucky due to their odd striking white hair and the death of their mother during their birth and they are shunned.
The two are only really allowed to stay in the village as hands to help in the fields, life is unpleasant but the two make due as they grow up. One winter when the two are around 11 or so Yoichi gets very sick. However he is refused treatment, resources are low and they village do not want to waste supplies on the weakest of the twins who would likely die before he is an adult anyways.
AFO tries to steal him medicine anyways but this goes wrong and the two are driven out of the village when he is caught. They attempt to flee across the river into the surrounding woods. Unfortunately the water is freezing and they drown.
Due to their tragic death the brothers come back as Nyavka and now dwell in the surrounding forest.
A newly undead AFO takes on a much more vindicative and aggressive role, the number of deaths caused by drowning in the nearby area skyrockets lol. Yoichi on the other hand dwells deeper in the woods and keeps to himself as much as his brother allows.
Many years later, Yoichi sees a young man with a scar across his face and striking orange hair seemingly fleeing from something. He is intrigued and decides to observe this stranger . . .
(And your standard vault escape (forest escape)) story happens from there. :) (with some more twists)
Me preocupa la sanidad mental de la persona que escribió ésto, pero igual quiero ser su amigo.
>AFO's unhealthy and weird obsession with Yoichi/OFA.
>Yoichi's Transfer quick is useless on it's own if it has nothing to Transfer. It being 'empty' and needing to be given (...filled with 🤢) another quirk. AFO being the 'donor' of the Power Stockpile quirk. Planting his seed will into Yoichi's body to make him 'his' and make his brother sumbit to him by giving him a quirk. The quirks merging together to form a new one.
>AFO literally calling himself the 'father of OFA'.
>AFO having Cronus parallels/references. Cronus marrying and having children with his own sister, Rhea. Cronus being defeated by his and Rhea's child, Zeus.
>OFA 'starting to grow and kick' in Midoriya.
>Midoriya being the one to 'complete' OFA (read as: giving birth to the child that will defeat AFO, it's father).
>OFA sucking energy and life-force out of it's holders, like a baby takes resources out of it's mother's body to grow.
>Midoriya being the 9TH, and the LAST holder of OFA. Like. You know. 9 months of pregnancy? And it's impossible to transfer OFA further because it has grown too big now.
Make of this information what you will.
Dad Might Ask Game and uh Portal AU, where Toshi and Izuku have to escape a lab with a portal gun. (or just, have fun thinking with portals lol)
The first portal they enter is a gateway to a Villain AU, where an All Smite is helping Villain Deku become the greatest villain of all time, much to Toshinori’s and Izuku’s shock. They quickly exit this universe, and enter another one.
The second portal is a Monster AU, where a Werewolf Izuku is fighting other werewolves to protect a Vampire All Might. Werewolf Izuku noticed them and mistook them as another enemy, so they are forced to flee quickly as well.
As they travel from portal to portal, Toshinori and Izuku slowly come to the realization that they’re happily supporting and protecting each other no matter what universe they’re in. From Royalty AUs to Sci-fi AUs, from fantasy AUs to Reality Show AUs, from musical AUs to Hero AUs.
The plot twist: This AU is from the POV of the portal-hopping Toshinori and Izuku—who are very much NOT on good terms with each other at best. And sworn enemies at worst. Their home dimension is the dimension that is the antithesis of everything DadMight.
Faced with the fact that they seem to be the odd-one-out in a Multiverse whose answer to the question “Do you think we have a strong supportive and close bond in other universes too?” seem to be a resounding ‘YES,’ Sworn Enemies! Toshinori and Izuku reassess their lack of familial relationship, even if the mere concept of having a civil conversation with each other makes them feel violently ill.
Izuku: “Even if I hate you… And want nothing to do with you… Even if you’ve definitely NOT changed my life for the better, I guess you did change it for good.”
Toshinori, holding Izuku by the neck and dangling him at the edge of a cliff: “I could say the same for you, boy.”
Izuku: “...Hey old man, where did we go wrong?”

It’s disgustingly poetic that Kudou and Yoichi had two months to mean everything to each other but in their next life they shared their whole lives relearning how to love and protect each other right this time. GROSS GAY PEOPLE OH MY GOD
Está interesante la teoría.👀
In chapter 407 : Paranormal Orphan, at the first page, we see this.
"Before she knew it, those 'things' nested inside her womb and started draining life force."
Now, hear me out ... We know that, canonically OFA drains it's user's life force. And overload of Quirks makes one braindead (Nomu) or quite physically unstable if they don't "upgrade" their body strong enough to hold multiple quirks. But, OFA is the only quirk that canonically drains it's user's life force.
OFA is made of transfer (Yoichi's original ability)+ stockpile. Because the only thing the Stockpile quirk does, it stockpiles energy like a storage. Other functions is Yoichi's original quirk.
And if just like AFO, Yoichi also manifested his quirk at birth/ in his mother's womb. What if... Yoichi was the one how took the Shigaraki mother's life force and AFO took Shigaraki mother's quirk and Nutrients. Cause taking nutrients and taking life force ain't the same. What if that's also the reason Yoichi was able to survive at birth?... because ain't no way a newborn can survive just because its twin bro kept holding his hand tightly.
Simplemente maravilloso, se me ha encogido el corazón.♥️
Made myself sad because I imagined Yoichi and Kudo meeting again inside One For All.
Yoichi had been dead for a little while, yet unable to fully pass on as his soul echo lived on inside the Quirk. He was lonely again, trapped all by himself in another dark room because of his brother.
Suddenly, a blue light filled the room, so bright that he could scarcely look at it. It settled, slowly, and when he could finally open his eyes they instantly filled with tears.
Kudo. His savior. His beloved. Had he come to pull Yoichi out again? Could they be free together, under the sun again?
In his heart, Yoichi knew that couldn't be true, but he still had hope. Kudo always gave him hope.
His beloved had a sad smile on his face as Yoichi stumbled forward, pulling him into a tight embrace.
He was warm to the touch, just like the last time they'd held each other as Yoichi bled out. But there was no heartbeat, steady and sure. Not anymore.
Yoichi gasped, sobbed, clung to Kudo as the other man's arms finally encircled him again.
"Shhh, shhh, it's okay," Kudo said, running his fingers through Yoichi's long, white hair.
"No, it's not," Yoichi muttered, his voice nearly cracking on every syllable, "You look the same. Exactly the same. How long?"
Kudo did not require further elaboration. He sighed.
"A couple of months."
"This is my fault," Yoichi said bitterly, "If I hadn't... if I'd stayed in that room..."
"Self-martyring idiot," Kudo murmured, "He was always going to kill me. I scared the fuck out of him, you know."
Yoichi chuckled.
"I know. Still..."
"It's stupid to think of the what-ifs. I passed the power on to our friend, and he got away. I'm satisfied."
"Our friend is all alone, facing that monster, and we can't do anything," Yoichi said, "How can you be satisfied?"
"I have to be," Kudo replied simply, "What else is there? I'm mad as hell that he killed me and I can't fight him anymore, but at least I get to see you again, and hold you again." He tilted Yoichi's chin up with his finger and gently pressed their lips together. "And do that again too."
Despite himself, Yoichi smiled.
"I missed you."
"Same here. And our friend is strong and smart, so I think he'll be able to stay away for a long time. As for us, I think we deserve to rest for a bit, don't you think? Your brother can't touch us here."
A sickening feeling crept into Yoichi's gut just then.
"My body... what happened to it?" he asked quietly. Kudo stiffened, then tightened their embrace.
"Burned to ashes with my own hands," he replied, the choke in his voice audible, "I built the pyre, laid your body on it, lit the flame, and stood watch for hours until it was done. Until there was nothing left but ash to blow away in the wind."
"Kudo..." Yoichi started, reaching up for his lover's face.
"Our first time together, you told me about your brother's perversions," Kudo cut him off, pained and angry, "I couldn't let him touch you again, even if you were gone and only a corpse was left. You hear me? I couldn't let him!"
Yoichi brushed away a few tears with his slender hands as he gently forced Kudo to meet his eyes. Kudo had saved him, over and over, even when this last act of love had clearly broken his heart to carry out.
"Kudo, my love, thank you," he whispered, before he pulled his savior down into another slow kiss.
My submission for the Three Weeks Trioholders (or duo in this case—) also hi @aimportantdragoncollector
Uh so I hope this counts as romantic (I’m aroace rip) 💀💀💀
Also here’s sketch ig 👍✨
RUN!
Dream Theory AU - AfO's dream manipulation quirk seems to have a mind of it's own, and often causes his and Toshinori's dreamscapes to collide. He makes the most of it.
Kudo tuvo una buena noche.
My submission for @aimportantdragoncollector's trioholders event (bonus round)!!
they are at the beach
So the names of the OFA Users are...
1st - Yoichi Shigaraki
2nd - Kudou
3rd - Bruce
4th - Hikage Shinomori
5th - Daigoro Banjo
6th - En
7th - Nana Shimura
8th - Toshinori Yagi
9th - Izuku Midoriya
So if Yoichi was free and hanging out with Kudo and Bruce for a few months, that means they might not've transferred the quirk by hand-holding after all. Wonder how else it might've happened though, especially before they knew how OFA worked? ...did they have gay sex?
I mean, there's not a lot of other ways to just casually absorb another guy's DNA after all.
Estoy teniendo una maldita crisis, Yoichi es el amor de mi vida, y está sufriendo, quiero gritar, ya grité, quiero gritar más, Crisis, dolor, pena, miseria, necesito el próximo capítulo, quiero llorar, quiero morir.
Okay. I’ve had time to process the spoilers for chapter 407: Paranormal Orphan.
Here are my thoughts:
-WTF?! They are twins?! What is it with Japanese mangaka and having unhinged twin relationships?! I’m looking at you, Nightow.
-AFO was born with his Quirk activated. Stealing nutrients from his mother then desperately feeding off of her corpse. Stole her Quirk too and seems to have some sentimental value in it as he still uses it often to this day.
-Low-key, I think there’s a hint here that the genetic change in babies and pre-pubescent kids started as some sort of STD that evolved considering their mom was a prostitute and “contracted” an illness. That’s just me, though.
-The first person he ever had was Yoichi and he held his hand right after birth. Also: JFC THAT’S A BIG BOY
-AFO is a victim of his Quirk like the other villains(Toga, Touya, Tenko). He was born wanting to possess things. I don’t like the whole “he was born evil” narrative. Yeah, he looks like a crazy ass Omen baby, but it makes sense he’d think the way he does.
-AFO is also an unreliable narrator here as this is all from his POV
-He says something to the effect of (we’ll know more once we get the scanlations) how, even though Yoichi can’t give him anything like he wants from everyone else, he’s still “his”.
-So, did he just get up and start walking and taking care of his brother out of sheer will when he was still a baby or did someone pick them up and raise them to the point when AFO wanted something from them and killed them when he didn’t get it?
-Yoichi still believes there is some good in his brother because he held his hand as a baby. 😭 Poor kid
-Poor wittle Yoichi getting kicked because he threw something at AFO. For how they’ve had to live, it makes sense AFO would react that way…in a manner of speaking.
-Yoichi learning to read from comics he finds in rubble/a dump. AFO takes notice and sits next to him. He then likes the part where the author says “One for All, All for One.” He should have had a name prior that he must have given himself as Yoichi has one. Though it would make sense that AFO named Yoichi himself as “first gift” since he was the first thing he ever had.
-AFO being jealous of the Glowing Baby is pretty spot on. All of this seems to hint that AFO and Yoichi were the first to have powers considering how AFO talks about the Glowing Baby and the 50 kids born in India.
-The last page is quite a cliffhanger and it sucks we have to wait 2 weeks for the next part(there’s no way this isn’t a two parter).
-How AFO is thinking about Yoichi leaving him is intensely possessive and reminds me of how Vader choked Padme when he thought she was betraying/leaving him. This also ties into how AFO didn’t know he had killed Yoichi.
-My guess is that AFO lashed out and sliced off Yoichi’s hand in a possessive rage. He was so startled by his own action that it gave the 3rd user time to grab Kudo and Yoichi then speed out of there.
-Is it just me or does anyone else hope AFO kept Yoichi’s hand? Parallel to Tomura having all of his family’s hands. I sure hope he did because I need even more twisted twin obsession.
-It’s most likely Yoichi lived long enough after this(and maybe with his blood) transferred OFA to Kudo. He then died from his blood loss and that’s why AFO didn’t know he had killed him.
-AFO crying over Yoichi’s death maybe the first and only time he’s ever cried. Yoichi did mean something to him, maybe even more than a “thing”, but he didn’t realize it until that one moment. He blames Kudo for his death because of the mental gymnastics he has to go through to convince himself that there’s no way he would have hurt the only person he’s ever actually loved—possessive as it may be. If Kudo hadn’t have taken him from the vault, he wouldn’t have reacted and cut off Yoichi’s hand, and therefore, Yoichi would still be alive.
-If he takes OFA with Yoichi’s soul in it, then Yoichi will be his again and “I totally didn’t kill him. See! He’s still alive!”
-The internet’s hot-takes that AFO is homophobic because he went full possessive Vader over Yoichi is weird. I said it.
-A part of me wants there to be a cliffhanger where we think Bakugo may have defeated AFO. We then get the intense fight between Tomura and Deku. Deku is about to win, however that’s going to happen, but then AFO shows up around the age he was when he kicked Yoichi, and he’s holding Bakugo as a threat, demanding Deku give him his brother back. But that’s just me. Again.
Anyway, I can admit when I’m wrong about a villain’s backstory. It wouldn’t be the first time and I honestly should have expected something like this considering Horikoshi going full on horror during this Final War arc. However, I don’t think AFO being born with his Quirk activated and “wanting to take” necessarily makes him “born evil.” The twins still had to survive on the streets as orphans, anti-meta people believing AFO is a diseased heathen and never wanting to help either of them. So, he took on exactly what they thought of him. It’s actually quite sad when you stop to think about it.
I’m going to be frothing at the mouth for the next two weeks to see how this backstory ends. Since it started with AFO going nuts and thinking Bakugo is Kudo, I’m assuming we’ll get further context of AFO’s thoughts when he’s crying.
Totalmente de acuerdo.
There's some discourse on whether AFO was born evil or became evil from the environment.
In my opinion: a little bit of both, but more of "he was born evil" due to today's leaks kinda confirming that.
You have AFO being avoided as a baby and having no mother, but at the same time, apparently from the time from birth, AFO believed that the world belonged to him ans that he deserved something from everyone otherwise you were a nuisance. I believe that he was bad from the start but maybe it would've changed if people were there for him, but again, he expected people to give him things, he saw his brother as one of his things.
I do also hope hori doesn't do the whole naruto route and have them talk AFO into being a good guy lol. It may work for SFO, but not for AFO. Make him go through un-birth.
The leaks Katy?!
Yoichi got his morals from comic books, that's another thing I was right about.
I've made fun of Yoichi for having morals from a comic book but it turns out he literally got his morals from a comic book. That was all he had. He didn't have any adults in his life to teach him. He couldn't even read more complicated books. The reason why he's telling AFO "metapowers should only be used to help people" in the flashback is because he read it in a comic book, and it's likely he doesn't even understand the more complicated political situation. It comes from genuine ignorance and lack of learning not stupidity so I can't mock it any longer.
Meanwhile I've always been kidding that AFO is a chuunibyou who got his motive from a comic book but it turns out he was in the same situation as Yoichi. Seriously, if only AFO had gotten better reading material then he probably would have still been drawn to the bad guy but he could have turned out mostly harmless. If only AFO and Yoichi had read one of those idol mangas and been inspired to go into theatre. AFO would have been the dramatic jerk who keeps sabotaging all his opponents but the world would have been spared domination.
Esto realmente representa la vibra de Yoichi con su hermano.
All for One and One for All
Hdp , es un bebé, MI bebé.😭
LEAVE HIM ALONE HE’S JUST LITTLE
After knowing the name of the second generation, I was excited. It has its own tag!!!!
