I guess I forgot to mark this down in the list, but hers is a snowshoe hare!

I remember you saying that yuts!Izuku’s daemon would be a corvid and that if he someone used soul seeing on him they’d find a lot of fractures and ever since I can’t but imagine his daemon seeming constantly banged up and having much less restrain in terms of snark which only adds to everyone’s concerns. Can I ask what do you think would be the daemons for Aizawa and the rest of the main four (or anyone you want to add really) in this AU?
Yeah, YUTS!Izuku’s daemon would be pretty roughed up, I think.
As for the rest of the cast, I posted a list of what I thought everyone’s daemons would be–going by canon, not YUTS, which is why Izuku’s listed as a wolf instead of a corvid.
Considering the creepiness, the roughed up corvid daemon and the loyal kitty I’m pretty sure people would suspect YUTS!Izuku of being a witch
YES.
for the whole daemons in yuts, i would assume ghosts keep their daemons so: what’s rei’s daemon??? what about hino? and nana?? i love this au of an au
Going by His Dark Materials canon, actually, ghosts do not keep their daemons. But that’s not important because i haven’t given it much thought, and I kind of don’t want to.
But! As for the daemons of people who are now ghosts:
Rei died as a child, before her daemon would have settled. But in a hypothetical YUTSwap daemon AU, they would have settled as a fox.
Hino’s daemon would beeee… either some kind of corvid or some kind of mustelid, like a weasel.
And Nana’s would be a bird of prey. Maybe a kestrel.
For some reason your Not!ReI reminds me of Toph from AtLA. Does she luck into impressing All Might thanks to Izuku or does she try to make things work with the ghost sight?
She doesn’t luck into it; her little hero-obsessed Jiminy-Cricket ghost friend gives her puppy eyes until she does something stupidly heroic enough to catch his attention.
But Pit. Pit. What about Inko in the Reverse YUTS? You’re hitting nuclear grade Adult Fear there TT_TT
I don’t like to think about Inko in YUTSwap because that way lies nothing but pain, at least until she actually meets Hitomi. There’s a happy ending in store for her, though, because Hitomi just so happens to need a new mom.
EEEEE!!!! I love love love your YUTS swap AU!!!! I know that in the original YUTS, you mentioned that Izuku’s ghost quirk would be strong enough so that if/when he died, people would still be able to see him. Would “Rei” have this ability, or not since he is a lot younger than Original YUTS Deku is currently. I’m just imagining how Bakugou would react if he saw his dead childhood friend, tho. Possibly a lot of shock and anger. And some explosions mixed in. Keep up your amazing work!!!!!!!
In YUTSwap, “Rei” does not have the ability to make himself visible and/or tangible by himself, mainly because his early death stagnated the growth of his quirk. It’s possible for him to figure it out in the future, though! For now, Hitomi’s empathy quirk make it so that she’s the only one who can see and touch him.
And… yeah. Bakugou wouldn’t take it well.
Out of curiosity, what is Hitomi’s family situation in YUTS!Swap?
Her original parents were… not great. Currently she’s in the foster system, though she’s been bouncing around from home to home ever since she started. Things stabilize a little once she gets into UA, thanks to the existence of student housing. She’s absolutely ecstatic to be there because she hasn’t had her own room since she was three, and growing up effectively being passed from one government-paid babysitter to the next has left her pretty self-sufficient.
is it safe to assume YUTSwap “Rei” died in second grade, or is he the same age as canon Rei?
Nope! YUTSwap “Rei” died before he reached the second grade. He’s six years old, not quite seven.
To answer the question you’re really asking: Bakugou genuinely had nothing to do with Izuku’s death.
So in the YUTS swap, is Rei (izuku) strong like Rei (Hitomi) is in yuts? Does he freak out when Hitomi gets hurt like rei does in YUTS canon? Did Rei physically drag down a grown ass man that threatened Hitomi like rei did with that poltergeist in YUTS? Does he do the freaky screaming too?? How is izuku different in YUTS swap?
So for starters, Izuku is still the one with the ghost quirk in this AU; Hitomi’s quirk is empathy and emotional amplification. Because of this, Izuku ends up with a much stronger and potentially tangible ghost than normal; it’s really only his young age and memory problems that keep him from fully tapping into his postmortem potential. If anything, this gives him the capacity to be even stronger than Rei Classic, freaky screaming and face-melting included. On the other hand, he lacks Rei Classic’s temper and possessiveness, so he’s a lot slower to get angry and try to claw someone’s eyes out.
This sort of renders poltergeists a mute point for Hitomi; since Izuku’s still the one with the ghost sight/enhancing quirk, other ghosts and poltergeists can’t affect Hitomi unless he specifically brings them to her. She can perceive them to a certain extent thanks to her empathy, but she can’t see or hear them, and they can’t hurt her the way they can hurt Izuku.
Ghost Izuku often ends up running to Hitomi when he meets a scary ghost. She gets it, though, and she’ll let him cling until he calms down.
