- Oops, All Self-Inserts: Different Heart, Same Beat. | Insomniac Reality | The Levitating Girl | The Time I Was Reincarnated As An Explosive Pomeranian | Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird | Eating My Friends"Bizarrely, our English word 'sturdy' may go back to the Latin turdus, thrush. Anyone described as 'sturdy' in the 1200s was wilfully reckless and possibly as immovable as a sozzled bird."
-Susie Dent
Eijiro Kirishima was on track to be a hero until the mind of college student and dimensional expatriate James Eisner was dropped in his head. That changed some plans, but somehow not all of them. He wanted to be a hero, right? Now he knows how to go even farther.
Plus Ultra and all that.
- Summary of "Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird"''
Wilfully Reckless and as Immovable as a Sozzled Bird
is a My Hero Academia Self-Insert Fic, written by SauronClaus on Archive of Our Own.
For the original project this fanfic is a part of, see Oops, All Self-Inserts. For other works by this author, see Oops, One for All for All.
Tropes:
- Adaptation Expansion: Kirishima being the main focus of this particular fic.
- Alternate Universe: Thanks to a large amount of other characters also being Self-Inserts, there is enough change to consider this an Alternate Universe.
- Character Catchphrase: Kirishima's catchphrase seems to now be "Plus Ultra and all that", seeing as it's said twice in the fic so far, as well as it being in the fanfic's summary.
- Didn't See That Coming: Pretty much everyone's reaction to Kirishima asking if everyone else was also a Self-Insert in Chapter 2.
- Establishing Character Moment: Throughout Chapters 1 and 2, Kirishima is constantly asking the others whether they are Self-Inserts or not.
- High School: The main setting of the fic is UA High School, due to Kirishima being a student in Class 1-A, despite James having already graduating
- Having already finished high school prior to being isekai'd is shared with another character in the Oops, All Self-Inserts project, specifically Franco from ''The Time I Was Reincarnated As An Explosive Pomeranian''.
- Named by the Adaptation: Manami and Alice, Kirishima's moms.
- Open-Minded Parent: Kirishima's parents once he reveals to them that James was isekai'd as Kirishima.
- Original Character:
- James Theodore Eisner, the guy who reincarnated as Eijiro Kirishima.
- Kirishima's family, specifically his parents, Manami & Alice Kirishima, and sister, Aiko Kirishima.
