Another thing I found. I think I re,ember making this as fanart for Viantastic’s character Bridget. Shame about the stuff surrounding it though. Still, I’m quite proud of this piece.

Fashion editor/stylist Anne-Marie Brouillee and model Jade Nguyen showcase the subtle, love-able quirkiness of this playful, appropriately titled, ‘spècial mode’ for ELLE France through the lens of Stefano Galuzzi.
It’s ALL in the details!
1Izuku is tested when he is 4, 5, 8, and every doctor swears up and down that he is quirkless.
(“Its completely natural,” the doctors say. “It happens, sometimes,” they say.
“Im sorry,” they say.)
Izuku is 4, 5, 8, and his brain moves too fast for his tiny little body, too fast for the way he tries to pour them out of his mouth, out of his hands. He fills up notebook after notebook after notebook, until inko finally breaks and gets him a laptop. And its better, when he writes, because his brain slows down a little, but its worse, too, because sometimes it feels like there are too many things he needs to write about and he cant just pick one, and it hurts, and it cant be right, because Izuku is quirkless, and there is no such thing as a mental quirk, so there must be something wrong with him.
And katsuki still bullies him, because hes quirkless, and the other kids still bully him, because he is a no-good smarty-pants teachers-pet
And his savior comes not in the form of All Might, or even, as Izuku imagines it might on his worse days, Endeavor
but as a young woman in the black, nondescript hero jumpsuit that most underground heroes wear. She cant be older than fourteen, fifteen, maybe, but she stops katsuki with her bare hands, even when his firecracker explosions singe and burn her hands. And she lets Izuku run through katas with her in the park, and spar with her on the days he uses her stealth advice to get away from bullies completely unharmed.
And she ruffles his hair and tells him that her name is Tsubasa, but that her hero name is Nightshade, and that he is definitely going to be one of the best heroes the world has ever seen.
And Izuku tells her that hes quirkless.
And for the first time she doesnt plop him down in the grass like she does when she needs to explain something. Instead, she walks him over to one of the park benches, plops him down, and kneels on the sidewalk in front of him.
“Izuku,” she says, low and firm, “what is my Quirk.”
“Silence,” Izuku answers quickly, even though he knows somehow that hes wrong, only because her perfect silence when she walks is something Izuku cant figure out how hes possibly going to learn.
And Tsubasa shakes her head in the indulgent way she does every time she chastises him for calling himself stupid, and like every time she says, “youre smarter than that.”
“Im quirkless,” izuku says, because its the only thing he can say, because she is dangling a brilliant promise in front of his eyes and he is trying very hard not to grab for it, because what if he grabs for it and it isnt there?
“What were you thinking about, when the doctors told you that?” she asks.
And Izuku opens his mouth to say “ill never be a hero”, but he doesnt say that, because thats a lie. He was thinking about how they couldnt really say hes quirkless because they never said he didnt have the gene, only that, if he did have a quirk, it would have already presented. And he was thinking about how so many of the medical machines surrounding him were the inspiration for, or inspired by, Hero Support equipment, and which ones were which, and why the two fields overlap so much, but also how the machines were put together and how they could be miniaturize and–
Tsubasa carefully pries his little hands away from his head and presses her forehead against his own and says, “Its never our Quirks that make us heroes.”

I mostly haven’t been able to buy new releases as they launched this past year, so I’m finally getting some of the bits I wanted in the sale. My latest IC order is…
Chalk It Up boots, got the matching bag the other week and it’s stunning (much nicer than I was expecting). I wanted the boots more than the bag (and preferred them over the shoe style), so can’t wait for them to arrive. Both come with chalk, so you can really draw and write on the black bits.
High Score, I only got the scarf and tights from the 2020 Gaming collection, but this IC exclusive colourway were the pair I really wanted. It’s unusual I opt for the darkest colour, but I preferred these over the multi-coloured ones. I love the big pinball and they light up too, which I always forget.
Spaghetti Junction, another IC exclusive colourway and from the same Summer collection as High Score. I do love the rainbow ones too, but there was something about the black and green contrast that drew me in. I once felt something tickling my feet in a shop and a little kid was lying on the floor playing with the rubber pom pom on my shoes, so I think I have to prepare for groups of kids attaching themselves to me in these!
Wonder Wheel Bag, from the same Fun & Games collection as the chalk boots. I got the matching Topsy Turvy boots for Christmas, the carriages really rock and the wheel rotates. I generally have a soft spot for the round bags, but I definitely couldn’t resist at £45. I keep trying to talk myself out of the Your Move bag with magnetic chess pieces from this collection.

1Hello Peeps. New to tumblr. Hoping you’ll like my quirky little peg people. They are small but full of personality. 😊
Firstly I’d like to introduce Pete. He rocks the “Young Tom Jones” look and basically likes to hang about in small swim pants. And why not?
