so like. the Way of the Househusband-style slice of life spinoff just about Aizawa going grocery shopping and grading homework.
YES that is EXACTLY what i want. here's some ideas i have for plot lines and chapters:
-at mic's suggestion, aizawa attempts to join a book club. it seems logical- aizawa has liked reading since he was a kid and it seems to be a casual way of figuring out how to be a normal person and not just a hero. however, when he walks into the first meeting, he very quickly realizes that the book club is full of former villains that he captured and put away. unfortunately, they all recognize him, too. these are all reformed villains, though, like they have normal jobs and fairly normal lives and they created this book club as a way of integrating themselves back into society and finding hobbies for themselves. therefore, they obviously can't/won't hurt aizawa or attack him and since this book club is open to the public, they won't kick him out, so instead they all just gang up on him and disagree with every single opinion he has on every book they read, to the point where they will vehemently deny even the most obvious things aizawa points out. instead of just joining a different book club as most people would do, aizawa instead decides that he will try to out debate these former villains about shitty romance novels.
-aizawa goes through a phase where every stray cat he comes across hates him and hisses at him and runs away. aizawa tries everything, even going as far as ignoring the cats to see if he's just bothering them too much. even that doesn't work and cats specifically seek him out to hiss at him. aizawa is so upset by this that he goes nuclear and signs himself up for therapy, to everyone's shock, thinking that if he can't figure out the reason why the cats hate him, surely a trained professional will. at every session, his therapist tries their damn best to talk about the mountain range of trauma aizawa has and every fucking time aizawa changes the subject with "no i want to talk about why the cats hate me". this story arc eventually ends with him opening up about his trauma and as a result, the cats begin to like him again. his vibes were just clinically rancid.
-eri tells aizawa that she would like to decorate his prosthetic with stickers. aizawa thinks this is fine, though he calls his doctors to make sure it will not impair the use of the prosthetic and is told that it will not. eri, having learned many good communication skills, asks aizawa what kind of stickers he would like. aizawa answers that he would like cat stickers. this is where the problem is. every single store they go to is inexplicably out of only cat stickers. even single stickers with cats have been stolen out of books of stickers. there is a cat sticker thief on the loose and eri somehow convinces aizawa that they have to catch the culprit or else the whole city will go up in flames.
-after being encouraged to indulge a little on things that he likes, aizawa decides that he would like to buy the newest line of adult ganriki clothes. he travels to a high end department store and stands in line on release day, only to grab the last sweater as soon as a middle aged woman does. an argument ensues and no amount of logic will work on this lady. however, aizawa is unusually determined to actually do something for himself for once and refuses to give in. someone films this encounter and it goes viral on the internet with aizawa being portrayed as a simple man who only wants to buy a sweater and the lady being a horrible monster who's attacking him for it. as a result, aizawa starts getting ganriki themed things in the mail. someone eventually comments on the video going "hey, isn't that the guy from the UA press conference?" and gets downvoted into oblivion.
-eri asks aizawa for a loft bed because she's at that age where climbing on things is fun. aizawa goes out and buys one for her. the instructions for putting them together are 100 pages long and contain only pictures and no actual instructions. aizawa tries for 2 weeks to put this thing together. he even begrudgingly enlists the help of other teachers. no one can figure it out. aizawa decides that the best course of action here is to track down the people that made the instruction booklet and demand that they rewrite the entire thing, even trying to track them down by traveling to their company. when he returns empty handed, he finds that shinsou has easily put together the bed in a span of four hours without any issues whatsoever. aizawa, flabbergasted, asks him how. shinsou just shrugs and replies that he was particularly bored and wanted something to do.
i have more ridiculous ideas for this so let me know if you want more.
