my absolute most favourite thing is enji trying to surpass all might but he jsut ends up becoming friends with him
enji: masters english so he can best all might
all might: just thankful he has someone he can speak english with
all might: just thankful he has someone he can speak english with
enji: becomes #2 out of his own strength and determination to beat all might and take #1
all might: grateful for an incredibly talented coworker he can rely on
all might: grateful for an incredibly talented coworker he can rely on
enji: comes out as bi to flex on all might who is straight
all might: sees this and gets the courage to be openly bi himself
all might: sees this and gets the courage to be openly bi himself
enji: drinks with all might thinking its a competition
all might: glad to have a friend relaxed enough to drink with him
all might: glad to have a friend relaxed enough to drink with him
enji trying all these new things and gaining more skills and only realising way down the end of the line that he just came off as picking up similar hobbies as a friend to understand them better
if enji was younger, he may have been furious that all might thought he was so far beneath him that he didnt even consider the possibility that enji could be his rival, now, though, many years later, enji is able to see the value of friendship and companionship over rivalry
the number one spot is a lonely position; your own coworkers are in awe of your talent and presence, and what happens if things go wrong? what happens if you can& #39;t handle a threat? there& #39;s no one higher than you, stronger than you. if you can& #39;t handle it, who will?
it& #39;s the top of the ladder, you can& #39;t climb any higher. what more is there to strive for? your friends, family, they would all be at risk because of your position. you& #39;re constantly in the public eye, do you get free time? is it possible to find time to just be yourself?
it& #39;s thoughts like these that must have plagued all might for /years/ as he held the number one position. he& #39;s at least fifty, and thirty of those years have been spent as the symbol of peace.
enji, the man who& #39;s held #2 for two decades, is the only one who could come close to understanding all might& #39;s situation. and finally, years later, he& #39;s finally mellowed and realised the truth; he shouldn& #39;t have been chasing to surpass all might and his legacy —
he should have been seeking to carve his own. enji can& #39;t become the symbol of peace, because he& #39;s not that sort of man. a symbol of indomitable power, maybe. he has the most solved cases of any hero, and it& #39;s likely he& #39;s the only hero to have held #2 for so long.
enji and all might are both in a similar situation, grappling with similar concerns. it may have taken twenty five years, but enji is finally ready to consider the prospect that maybe, maybe — all might has always considered him worthy, but not as a rival: as a friend.
fin i guess!! turns out this was a thread!!!!!!
