A min ago I jokingly made a post about how I’m a bit over headcannon of Shinso with insomnia so I’m gonna give him sleep paralysis as his sleep disorder instead and the more I think about it the more I think I was cooking.
Like he has this power to control other people and it’s his job to use it. But on very stressful nights, or maybe nights he’s eaten too much spicy food, he wakes up unable to move. Seconds stretch to feel like hours. There’s a weight at his feet, hands on his back, hot breath on his ear whispering words that spike his adrenaline. Tomorrow he won’t remember what they said but that doesn’t matter, the chemical memory still remains. For the next night or two or three he can’t relax enough to get more than a few hours of sleep.
Day in and day out he uses his quirk to take away people’s control of their own body and for a few nights his own mind, through a coincidence of terrible irony, shows him exactly what that’s like. But at least his quirk doesn’t make people hallucinate.
