Somewhere in an alternate universe...
Maybe Reconfigure by omytheon, depends. That's where I got the 'What if Shigaraki and Kaminari were gaming buddies without realising each other's actual identities-'
Anyway.
Watchin' some stuff with my sisters the other day, and we were talking about the plot as it came up, and how mind control is basically hacking- (the stageplay was about assassins and it had hacking in it)-but like hacking people's feelings!
So obviously the main character had been controlled by the feelings hacker, which led to 'that's basically what therapy is right? I mean, they basically do that right? the hacking people's feelings?' (just to clarify, I do NOT mean the mind control part-)
Anyway. That led to "that would be hilarious if some kid who basically lived online described his therapy appointment as 'visiting the feelings hacker'" and my brain was like, 'wait. I can think of a character who might actually call it that in some alternate universe where he actually got therapy-'
Which is how this came to be.
:D
