afo saw yoichi as his possession, he named both yoichi and "tomura", he groomed tenko to become an amalgamation of both him and his brother (almost like their "child" as gross as that is to say), in general afo projects HEAVILY into tenko like with him encouraging this kid to +
okay, but the more takes i see about afo and yoichi's past, the more i am sure people don't get it at all.
you can't point at an infant with the ability to steal powers and then complain when it, in fact, steal powers. their whole backstory is a tragedy, and i will tell why.
This is one of the pics for “brothers in crime” au - version where kudou is not the leader and rebels are quite more sketchy organisation than it was in canon, so when yoichi gets a chance to run away from them he returns to afo on his own
Ship, tho I like it with afomura version - would be interesting to see how he played with poor spinner and got nostalgic for his old self prime days, but also how he would struggle more and more with each day to keep control over Tomura…
