He... doesn’t want to have sex. He’s never wanted it— well, maybe not never, but in the ballpark of never and that’s good enough for Shouto to decide the matter is settled. Besides, what’s the use in wanting what he knows he can’t have? Pain, Shouto can deal with. And when it’s over, his life will be right where he left it: full, and good, and unchanged.

Shouto gets hit with a sex quirk and proceeds to pretend it never happened. Izuku and Katsuki won’t let him suffer alone.

no because i actually go so soft at the thought of izuku waking up panicked from a nightmare about kacchan dying, and kacchan, without even fully waking, just guides izuku's head down to his chest so izuku can hear his heart beating, until izuku's own heart stops racing, and they fall back asleep tangled in each other, together and alive

[antsday]

okay i will admit it: i don't like 431 from a narrative standpoint (or really any standpoint) but if you view it exclusively as the true epilogue in an alternate universe of mha in which 5 year old katsuki is right about deku looking down on him and doing everything to spite him and wanting to bring about his downfall then the whole thing becomes kind of absurdly funny

[epickiya722]

"She liked him since the beginning! The ship was hinted at the beginning!"

AH!! How come people are so stuck on mentioning just how Ochako feels and not Izuku?

It's like some of you can't process that regardless of whether she had a crush on him or not, which again isn't a bad thing, her crush shouldn't be the only thing Ochako stands for.

It's not a personality trait and I hate it people will treat it like it is.

If anything, it just feels weird!

And I ask again, then what about Izuku? Oh, what did he not like her in the beginning? Or it's just being realizing that his mannerisms is that of a person being nervous and/or embarrassed?

Or does it not matter because "He's a guy, he's gonna have the girl anyways, so who cares if he develops romantic feelings for Ochako"?

And I wouldn't say Ochako even liked Izuku in the beginning romantically. In fact, I would say she started to like him that way during the Final War Arc.

Saying she liked him in the beginning would imply she liked him since they met.

Oh, please, the word "crush" didn't come up until season 3 during the Provisional License Exam arc. And how that scene played out, let's be real, Ochako believing she had a crush was enforced by Mina. Someone is obsessed with the idea of love. That's whose word is to be believed? Are you joking?

And I said this before, as big as Iida is, people be acting like he's invisible. Mina brought him up to in that conversation as, hello, Ochako hung around him a lot, too. Izuku just so happen to be who Ochako's attention went to because he was right in her line of sight... while practicing moves inspired by Iida!!

Now, do I think Ochako confessing her feelings undeveloped her growth? No. She accomplished what she wanted to do and I don't see Izuku making her a wife at the end. I see them deciding to reconcile a bond. Do I think Toga was forgotten? Uh, no. She is drawn right there and been on Ochako's mind for nearly a whole damn decade.

Everything about this chapter is up for debate. We don't know if that ship is truly canon and who said it has to be? And if it is, who is stopping you from not shipping it?

I know some people hate to see that IzuOcha handhold as the last shot and I get it. But I wouldn't be too pressed about given it's a part of an aftermath. You can just pretend the epilogue doesn't exist. Chapter 430 is still the complete story. You don't have to read the epilogue to fully understand the story.

Epilogues typically are just added ending scenes to show a glimpse into the future and/or to tie up loose ends. And honestly, MHA didn't need it. This was just something to have.

What I do know is I'm not on anyone's side.

I find funny that people who don't ship BakuDeku was quick to be like "I only see BakuDeku as platonic, the shippers really want them to be romantic, they're like brothers". But if anyone even implies that maybe the ending could be Izuku and Ochako rekindling their friendship, it's "how dare you, Ochako said she loved him".

Again, what about Izuku?! DID HE LIKE HER FROM THE BEGINNING?!

If BakuDeku are "like brothers", then bring up how Izuku and Ochako look like relatives. Having the same face shapes and whatnot.

Look, both sides are wrong. The behavior is ridiculous. Attacking and harassing each other over characters some of you clearly don't really care about unless it is for shipping.

I know the story isn't flawless, what story is, but it's not hard to actually read and try to understand what these characters are all about.

I'm not an expert on these characters, I'm not. But I adore them and regardless of how the writing is, I like to read their arcs and understand them better.

And there's no need to point at someone and fire lasers to do that.

If you ship BakuDeku, ship it. If you ship IzuOcha, ship it. No one is fucking stopping you. Heck, the story shouldn't stop you.

But all of this ship war bullshit is stupid. The official epilogue ain't even out yet, but here y'all go wanting to argue and argue and argue and argue and harass and harass and argue and act the fucking donkey.

"Well BakuDeku shippers are toxic!"

"IzuOcha shippers are toxic!"

No, look in the mirror, sit back and do some self-reflection.

Come December, the story will be done, finished, published, sold, another one in the "Well, that manga is finished" collection.

Society as a whole needed to learn that being a hero was a choice, a way of life more than a profession, but Izuku Midoriya needed to know to learn that he could be a Capital-H Hero without a quirk. That’s what Katsuki was trying to say with the suit. That was the hope that 430 gave Izuku and us, and that 431 took away again.

[Not sure what's up with the AO3 links on tumblr today btw, hopefully that works ok ^]

Oops, I wrote another one. One shot and part 1 of a series based on this prompt list. Soft, fluffy, emotional, post canon, established relationship, living together.

Prompt: love letter

Summary:

Izuku and Katsuki have just moved into their very own apartment together. Izuku gets home early and starts unpacking the last few bits, delighted in their new home, until he finds something inside Katsuki's bed-side table. It gives him an idea.

Emotional conversations and date night ensue.

Excerpt:

It almost goes unnoticed. Izuku’s been a bit of whirlwind, running up and down the apartment to put bits and bobs away, barely paying attention to what else is already there when he opens a drawer or a cabinet.

He certainly didn’t intend to pry into the contents of Kacchan’s nightstand, either.

Still, the piece of paper is unmistakeable, even folded in eight and yellow with the passage of time. A torn page from the limited-edition All Might Campos notebooks he had bought for his first year at UA, just enough of Izuku’s handwriting visible on one of the folded edges.

It’s a little sad, that Kacchan keeps that letter in his nightstand, of all things. It’s the only letter Izuku ever wrote him and…

Oh.

There’s an idea.

[theophagie]

I have a disease that makes me... not lose interest in a ship once it has a happy ending or as close to it as possible, but it does make me lose something when that happens. The tension, that spark, the uncertainty, etc... And I crave happy endings, I'm a sucker for angst and anguish whilst generally needing a light at the end of the tunnel, but once that conclusion comes I'm left like. but mhhhhhh... the journey though 🤤🥴......

You’re not nothing

Katsuki leaned against the kitchen counter and sighed. A warm mug of tea was cupped between his hands as he watched his boyfriend. Izuku had been in the same spot for hours, sitting cross-legged staring out their large living room window. 

Patrol had been rough today. Katsuki would have known from the non-verbal signs, but it was the constantly running news coverage of the disaster that really hit home what Izuku was obsessing over.

Of course that idiot would think it was all his fault. But what was he supposed to do? Deku had a lot of quirks, but he was not able to be in multiple places at once. He was fast…but not that fast.

Other heroes had been on the scene, too. But like usual, Deku tried to do everything himself. To be the one who shouldered the worst of the damage. Take on the villain and save all the civilians. 

Katsuki inhaled deeply and scrunched his brow at the first sign of Izuku’s shoulders shaking. Hadn’t he learned anything over the years?

The mug was placed on the counter, ready to be forgotten and turn cold. The blonde padded over and stood behind his boyfriend. The lights were dim, shining from the kitchen behind them. Katsuki’s shadow was cast over the smaller man, giving the impression of the blonde looming over him.

“Hey.”

Izuku’s shoulders continued to shake with silent sobs.

“Izuku,” Katsuki tried again, crouching this time. He hesitated to touch. Didn’t want to freak him out.

Soft sniffling was the only sound between them. Katsuki was sure he was going to have to pull his boyfriend out of whatever headspace he’d put himself in. But then, Izuku lifted his face.

Scarlet eyes caught the other man’s reflection in the darkened window. Puffy eyes, tear stained cheeks, lips twisted into a pain grimace and showing off his teeth as he sucked in air to sob again.

“I c-couldn’t save them,” Izuku choked. “I’m useless! Useless Deku. A failure of a hero. I’m n-nothing!” His hands dug into his thighs, crooked fingers twisting the fabric of his shorts so hard they turned white.

Katsuki sat on the floor behind him, bracketing his shuddering form between his muscular thighs. He reached around and covered Izuku’s tight, shaking hands with his own. Gently, oh so gently, he pried those powerful fingers back, lacing them with his own.

“You’re not nothing,” Katsuki told him softly with a kiss to the back of his neck.

Izuku sobbed harder. “Y-You should have heard them. They h-hate me.”

“They don’t,” he argued. “They’re grieving. They’re angry, but not at you.”

“They should be,” Izuku whispered. “I’m supposed to be All Might’s successor…a hero who saves everyone with a smile on his face. And I failed.”

“You’re one man, Izuku,” Katsuki told him. “And you’re amazing.” He squeezed his boyfriend’s fingers between his own. “You’re so strong.” He lifted their connected hands to place a kiss on scarred knuckles. “Compassionate.” A kiss to a freckled cheek. “Kind to everyone.” A kiss to his other cheek. 

Tears continued to flow. Izuku shook his head. 

“I’ve never seen you give up. Not once. I admire you for that.” Katsuki lowered his forehead to his boyfriend’s shuddering shoulder and pressed a kiss there. “And so does everyone else. You may not have been able to save everyone, but you never once stopped trying.”

“I feel w-w-worthless,” Izuku gasped.

Katsuki sat up straight. “Look at me, Izuku.” Curls flopped as he shook his head. With a sigh, the blonde let go of one hand to grip wet, puffy cheeks and forcibly turn his boyfriend’s head.

Dull viridian eyes, glassy with flooding tears stared back at him.

“We are going to lose people, Izuku,” Katsuki spoke plainly, but softly. “It’s inevitable. And we’re going to lose friends.”

Izuku squeezed his eyes shut and choked on a wet breath.

“I’m not done,” Katsuki growled. “Look at me.”

His boyfriend complied, fluttering his eyelids open and looking at him with the most heartbreaking expression. 

“We’ve only been pros for two years. There’s a long road ahead of us filled with loss and disappointment. But there’s also so much hope and happiness.” Katsuki could feel his throat tightening, his scarlet eyes burning with forming tears. “But you have to promise me you will never stop trying. Because you are my hope, Izuku. You are my happiness. And without you, I am nothing.”

“Kacchan,” Izuku whispered, barely audible. “You’re not nothing.”

“And neither are you.” Katsuki told him earnestly. He squeezed those wet, freckled cheeks harder and leaned forward to kiss the corner of salty, swollen lips. “I love you.” Katsuki let out a shuddering sigh. “Now, please…love yourself.”

In an awkward twist of limbs, Izuku pulled Katsuki into a bone crushing hug. 

“I promise I’ll try,” he whispered.

Katsuki’s arms wrapped around him protectively. He squeezed his eyes shut, forcing his tears back and pressed a kiss against verdant curls.

ok im still not over this, saw ppl on twt talking about it and it just made me think,,

do you think there was a silent acceptance from bakugou that shigaraki wasnt going to stop until he died or that he realized he was going to die trying to help deku in this fight however he could or both?

itd be crazy if from bakugous perspective, he thought that when shigaraki said "youre the closest person to izuku midoriya," shigaraki was trying to hurt him.

Like, im insanely distraught by the idea that bakugou probably doesnt believe that hes izukus closest person, but that shigaraki knew how to hurt bakugou by bringing deku up to throw bakugou off. Everything he's said in this fight, from bakugous perspective at least, is taunting from a villain to get him to slip up emotionally. This line is such an insane thing to drop on someone, im trying really hard to think of any other implications or understandings where theyre relationship isnt drastically different from where they were before the war.

Like theyre on good terms, some things are left unsaid and deku still hasnt directly responded to bakugous apology, however, knowing deku with his tendency to put on a face, keep everything behind lock and key, and say hes lucky to have a relationship at all, bakugou and deku probably wouldnt talk directly about this if shigaraki hadnt targetted bakugou like this.

Theres going to be some kind of talk between them after the war and im constantly thinking about what its going to be like because what do you even say? What does this imply?

(i mean,, i have an idea but i refuse to get my hopes up lmao)

Hypnagogia by ElizabethMarlowe

(M, 12K, 1/1)

Deku’s voice is quiet- powder-puff gentle in the night air; the remaining flush of post-coital exertion tinting his cheeks pretty and pink in the yellow lamplight.

“What are you thinking about?” He asks.

And Katsuki, still shaking- still coming down- answers him honestly; turning towards him with soft, sappy eyes- with a lopsided smile as he shrugs and answers:

"You."
