In a Superhuman Society

by Stonecreek

A world with quirks means its people will be rather quirky. Whether heroes, villains, or somewhere in-between, every BnHA character deserves to have their story told. These are but tiny 100-word snippets of their lives, told one a day, every day, in 2023. Newest chapter: Goto Imatsuji (AKA Muscular and Jailbreaker) is a brutal fellow, but he appreciates the artistry of depravity.

341. Goto Imatsuji (Muscular)

A.N. — I wonder what it says about me, that this pretty simple to understand character got me to write a drabble that my word counter site judged as "college graduate" level. Perhaps I just relished letting loose, much like this birthday celebrant. Salutations to Muscular, a villain who's more than earned the title.

341. Goto Imatsuji/Muscular/Jailbreaker

Whether going by Muscular or Jailbreaker, Goto Imatsuji considered himself a connoisseur of carnage. He looked for strong willpower in his targets, but his killing instinct always proved the more overwhelming force. Muscular viewed himself as the pinnacle of his profession: a cold-blooded, ruthless combatant for hire. He loved his work, and his employers enjoyed getting their money's worth in the bloodstained results he delivered.

Even when his massive ego got bruised by taking damage from those he saw as beneath him, Muscular still reveled in the tablau of trauma. Seeing his sanguine lifeforce leak out was a visceral spectacle.
