Rarepair headcanons because I am ignoring my problems

Serodeku:

Izuku reenacts the Spider-Man movies with Sero. Izuku is MJ. They also alternate being Spider-Man sometimes

They skate together

They get very protective when people call their boyfriend “plain”

They play dnd together

Sero tries to make sure that izuku gets some rest

They’re both kinda insecure, izuku more than sero, but still; and they make sure to reassure each other as often as possible

Sero likes listening to Izuku’s ramblings and finds them cute. He has told izuku this, only for the poor boy to imitate a tomato

After Izuku has been particularly reckless, Sero takes advantage of his quirk, wraps Izuku in bubble wrap, and tapes it there

Tokodeku:

Jocknerd bf and goth bf, we love to see it

Tokoyami teaches izuku how to sword fight

They start a dnd club at U.A.

Izuku talks to dark shadow a lot, Dark Shadow approves of him, and has claimed the spot of best man at their wedding

Izuku comes up with ideas to help Tokoyami gain control with Dark Shadow

Dark Shadow is very protective over Izuku, no matter how many times Tokoyami tells him that he can take care of himself, Dark Shadow will put himself between Izuku and any form of danger as often as possible

Dekoyama??? Aoyama/izuku:

Aoyama gives him makeovers, obviously

Aoyama drags izuku to the mall and tries to revamp some of his wardrobe, but he actually finds the “pants” and “flannel” type shirts cute

They help each other train their quirks

Aoyama is trilingual, and teaching izuku English and French.

Izuku always brings Aoyama home some new cheese

Y’all, I love them so much. There needs to be more aodeku content

Monoshinsou:

They have people watching dates. They come up with stories for the people they’re watching; their job, family, background, etc.

They judge people together

They call each other “love”

They’re both dramatic bastards, who will flop onto their lovers lap and proclaim their death due to a minor inconvenience

They jokingly sh*t-talk class A

Shinsou said “I love you” first, and it was because Monoma brought him coffee to class

Monoyama:

Like monoshinsou, they’re both dramatic bastards, who will flop onto their lovers lap and proclaim their death due to a minor inconvenience

They go shopping together and pick out the most dramatic pieces of clothing for each other

I love them so much, please 😭✋

They have tea parties every week, where they sh*t talk everyone else and gossip

They are both fancy bastards, and they wear the most exquisite outfits to go grocery shopping, and the outshine everyone

They both actually make clothing, they’ll go fabric shopping together. Gift exchanges are often articles of clothing that they’ve made for each other

Momomei:

They work on gear together!!!

Momo makes sure that mei gets some sleep

Mei helps redesign momo’s suit

They often work together with izuku to work in gear and such

They actually got together after izuku introduced them. He had been working on gear with mei, and studying with momo and he thought they’d hit it off. He was correct

Shintsuyu:

Dude they’d be so cute

Tsu is a vent gremlin, and you can’t change my mind. So she and shinsou will play a game where they try to find each other. Tsu is in the vent and shinsou is in the classrooms. Shinsou will try to find whichever vent she’s in, or she’ll find whichever classroom he’s in, in 20 minutes or less

I always headcanoned tsu as a dog person, so they’d have two cats and two dogs, and a bunny that they named Deku

They like comparing their friends to animals, hence the bunny, Deku

Kamideku:

Kaminari is a flirt, and izuku does n o t know how to handle it

Kaminari likes listening to izuku’s ramblings, and can keep up with them. He’ll ask questions on things too, and Izuku has never felt more appreciated

I don’t know why I feel like they’d have so many animals, but I do. They’d have so many, man. Three cats, two dogs, four sugar gliders, a hamster

Adhd power couple. They hyperfixated on complimentary things at the same time one time

Kaminari tutors izuku in English, and izuku turots kami in some other subjects. He’s also teaching kami JSL on the side. Kaminari has a live of languages

Momochako:

Study dates, Momo asks ochako to quiz her a lot

Ochako takes to floating momo’s things when she wants attention. Especially when Momo is studying. She makes a game out of how many things she can float until the other girl notices

Uraraka’s confidence does wonders for momo’s. Uraraka always makes sure to reassure momo that she is strong and that she can do this

Momo makes Uraraka whatever her heart desires. Uraraka blushes all the time, and momo takes great pride in getting her girlfriend to blush

Minatoru:

Mina clings to everyone, but especially to toru

They give each other stuffed animals so often. They’ll go to the store to get food, and come back with three stuffed animals that reminded them of each other

Please, they’re so cute 😭✋

They will play hide and seek, I stand by this.

Mina helps toru design a new costume. I hate hers, it’s horrible, and sexist, and not suitable for a fucking child

Toru says that pink is her favorite color

They flirt with each other all the time. Half the class thinks it’s cute, half of them used to think it was cute.

Iidamomo:

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, but study dates. they quiz each other, and it actually gets pretty competitive

They also have rage room dates. I will not budge on this. Iida tried to murder someone, and I am excited to see momo finally snap. She deserves it

They alternate paying for dates, don’t try me.

The go hiking a lot

They started liking each other after one late night, both having nightmares. Momo had tea, and offered some to Iida. They talked until the early hours of the morning

They can’t flirt. They try. But they’re horrible at it. They’ll compliment each other all day long, but they cannot flirt.

KIRIDEKU, MY BELOVED:

Y’all,,, y’all, I love them so much

They train together, obviously

They ran into each other one night in the common room after both having nightmares. They talked about middle school, how they were both bullied, izuku’s quirk coming in late, katsuki being abusive, kiri being bullied because his quirk wasn’t “cool.” After that, they were practically inseparable.

They started going on dates, not that either of them knew they were dates. The entire class knew, so did the teachers, so did the rest of U.A. Kirishima picked up on it first after a comment from Mina, he had is realization.

So, he started courting Izuku. Not thag izuku realized this. He brought him flowers on most ‘dates,’ he bought him hero action figures whenever he could, he complimented him until Izuku was red in the face (which was honestly very easy.) Still, izuku remained ignorant to the fact that he was indeed dating Kirishima.

The final tipping point, was due to Uraraka’s help. She was quite tired of watching the two of them pine for each other. It was amusing for the first couple months, watching Kirishima try so hard, and Deku being totally oblivious. However, she took pity on her friends after a while.

So, Uraraka devised a devilish plan to get the two together. She involved Mina, Sero, and kaminari in this plan. What was the plan, you ask? Oh, simply to trap the two in one room until they broke through izuku’s obliviousness.

Kirishima finally “straight” up admitted his feelings, to which Izuku had the sudden realization of “oh my gods, have we been dating this whole time??” Yes, Izuku. Yes you have.

They have two anniversaries after that.

Let’s be honest, they are really, annoyingly, horrifically lovey dovey. Kirishima brags about having “the manliest and bestest boyfriend in the world.” Izuku flaunts his many PowerPoint presentations on how talented and incredible Kirishima is

Uraraka doesn’t know if she did the right thing by helping them. She is so tired

Tsujirou:

Jirou makes playlists for tsu

The few sane ones in class A, I swear

They go on walks in the rain as often as they can

They go for dates in the bookstore too. They each pick out an album and a book for the other to listen to and read

Y’all, they make so much sense togetherrrrr, I’m love them 🥺

Jirou started liking tsu after the crew saved bakugou. Jirou sat with tsu after momo, Iida, kirishima, Todoroki, and izuku apologized and sat with her. They had movie night, and Jirou joined the Bakugou saving crew and tsu with taking well into the night. She just appreciated how much tsu cared

Tsu started liking Jirou after she helped Iida, momo, and izuku try to keep the class in order. She appreciated how diplomatic and calm she was

Jirou would talk to izuku all night long about how gay she was, and how adorable tsu was. So, izuku decided to try and suggest ways for Jirou to ask her out.

She did not end up getting to ask her out though, as Tsu walked up to her the next morning f and asked if she wanted to go on a date. Jirou said yes. Izuku cried

Izujirou:

They make playlists for each other

They go for runs on the beach a lot

They both have insomnia, and often spend time making blanket forts and talking, or FaceTiming and listening to music

Jirou walks into the common room once a week looking for new music. She started liking Izuku after he made a playlist for her for one of these occasions.

They’re both quite awkward when it comes to romance, but neither of them will shy away from facing the truth. So, Jirou made izuku a playlist filled with love songs that reminded her of him and sent it to him. Sadly, izuku is dense as hell.

So, then Jirou wrote a love song and told izuku that the song was for him. Sadly, izuku is dense as hell.

So, then Jirou write analysis about izuku’s quirk for him. Sadly, izuku is dense as hell

So, then, after thinking that Jirou had done so much for him, izuku made her a playlist filled with love songs. Jirou took this to mean that izuku had finally picked up on her feelings, and accepted them.

So, they started to go on dates. Not that izuku knew this, as he is dense as hell. All leading up to izuku finally confessing his feelings on one of their ‘dates,’ to which Jirou responded, “dude, we’re already dating? Aren’t we? I- I thought that was obvious??”

May this awkward couple be forever blessed

Tokoyama:

Goth/prep boyfriends, we love to see it

At least once a day, Aoyama will proclaim that Tokoyami “shines almost as bright as he does, in his fabulous emo way”

They sword fight, and come up with really dramatic scenarios and scenes that they’re in

They bond over being in the izucrew and their shared love of swords. Aoyama took fencing classes in middle school, and Tokoyami got into sword fighting after watching it in pirates of the Caribbean as a young child. He is self taught and watched countless videos on the art of sword fighting

Tokoyami asked Aoyama our by dramatically presenting him with a dagger and going “will you accompany me on a formal outing as my lover?”

Shinyama:

They flirt constantly

No really, it’s getting quite annoying. Someone please stop them.

They both plop down in random areas and proclaim their deaths, the difference between them, is that Aoyama will burst into shinsou’s room, and yell “love, I’ve been murdered. Mourn for me” while plopping down on shinsou’s lap. Shinsou can be found laying face down outside aoyama’s door, and when Aoyama goes to open the door, he just goes “I’ve been murdered.”

^^ one time, shinsou did a very fun Halloween prank for this, where he poured fake blood all over himself for Aoyama to find him an hour later, asleep.

Nap dates. Aoyama get glitter all over shinsou’s room

Iiyama:

Aoyama enjoys making Iida blush, obviously. But he takes joy in doing it specifically when class is about to start. Aizawa is tired of his shit

Here is how I think an iiyama conversation might go:

Aoyama: I ask for one thing in this relationship-

Iida: Aoyama, you know that’s a lie-

Aoyama: for my boyfriend to carry me around all day-

Iida: Aoyama, I cannot feasibly do this with class-

Aoyama: and I don’t think that’s too much to ask for 😤

Anyway, Aoyama got carried around all day that day, despite Iida’s blush and Aizawa’s eye twitch

Everyone in the izucrew is close, but Iida and Aoyama started to get close after Iida told the crew about Stain. Aoyama wanted Iida to know that he wasn’t alone, and that he wanted to help him. So he started packing extra cheese for lunch and giving it to Iida. Iida was very confused at first. But this was Aoyama trying to court him. This was only made apparent by momo and Jirou telling Iida that this was aoyama’s attempt at expressing romantic interest.

Aoyama flirts with everyone, that’s just who he is. But with Iida? Oh it was tenfold. The poor boy was red in the face constantly. Aoyama was a persistent little bugger too, following him around and calling him ��mon amour’

Kirikamideku:

My dearest traffic light trio, I’m love them

They train together, and kiri and kami always appreciate izuku’s analysis snd ideas

Kiri falls even more in love with izuku and kaminari when they go off on rants. Izuku rants and kami can keep up with him so he asks questions about it. Kiri loves to watch his boyfriends go on rants, I don’t make the rules, but I do enforce them

They started to get closer after kami and kiri found bakugou causing a ptsd flashback (could be on purpose of an accident, up to the reader.) they stated with him and tried to talk him through it. After this, izuku started to tell them about having been a “late bloomer” and being bullied, etc. (I don’t know, man; I tend to over share after flashbacks and after panic attacks)

Izuku tutors them in several subjects, but kami tutors them in English. Kiri just falls in love with his smart boyfriends

Izuku is teaching kami JSL and kami is helping izuku with English and Italian (personal headcanon that Italian has been one of kami’s special interests) kiri loves to listen to them, and finds it relaxing and calming to hear them do this. When he has panic attacks, he’ll ask them to tutor each other in different languages

“but I thought about how I needed to say this”

a.k.a. yet another meta dissection of The Apology. I actually wrote most of this up on Friday night based on the original Japanese (@pikahlua has an excellent translation up here, and I also used @hanashimas’ translations as a reference as well), but I wanted to wait until the official release, though that turned out to be a mixed bag to say the least lol.

I would also recommend reading @pikahlua and @class1akids’ breakdowns of this scene (here and here, respectively), because they are excellent, and because if any scene deserves to have as many meta breakdowns written about it as possible, it’s this one.

anyway so here goes.

Caleb did a more accurate job with this than the fanscan, even if he did try his best to take us out of the seriousness of the moment by throwing in that swiss cheese line lol. anyway so there are two things I want to talk about here. the first is the line about Izuku not remembering, which I thought was a nice touch. of course he doesn’t remember what Kacchan said back then. he wasn’t exactly in the soundest emotional state after seeing one of the people he cares about most taking a near-fatal blow that was meant for him. I’d be shocked if he remembers anything about the aftermath (including the way he flew into a mindless rage afterwards) right up until the point when he entered the OFA Interstellar Party Void with Tomura. anyway, so I thought that was a nice callback.

and speaking of emotional states, the other thing I wanted to talk about is the part that Caleb got right which the fan scanlation didn’t. “but I had more to say.” in other words, “stop trying to win on your own” wasn’t just a one-liner; it was meant to be the beginning of a much longer speech. “there were other things that I needed to say.”

like, can we just stop and talk about that for a second. because basically what this means is that in that instant, when Kacchan pushed Deku out of the way and got impaled, his one and only thought was that he needed to apologize to Deku. his life was presumably flashing before his eyes, he had no idea if he was going to survive or not, and the only thing on his mind was how urgently he needed to make things right with his former childhood friend.

moving on!

so I have a confession to make, which is that I am relieved to see Katsuki describing this as the reason why he bullied Deku, as opposed to Horikoshi trying to retcon it into some sort of “secretly he was just trying to protect him and keep him out of harm’s way because he was worried” thing, which ngl would not have gelled very well with me. the thing is that I’m really not a fan of the whole “Kacchan Did Nothing Wrong” mentality that some fans seem to have. like, I have seen all sorts of convoluted attempts to find excuses for Katsuki’s shitty behavior, but in my view those attempts undermine what I love about his character in the first place. Katsuki is such a great character specifically because he is not perfect. his redemption arc is so compelling because he was such a giant asshole at the start. he was completely at fault, and he acknowledges this, and takes full responsibility for it. and that is fucking fantastic.

his arc is so great because it doesn’t rely on garnering sympathy by giving him a Tragic Past, or by trying to foist the blame for his behavior over on someone else. it’s an arc that acknowledges that redemption isn’t something you achieve by making people feel sorry for you; it’s something you have to earn by actively working to change and do better. and by forgoing the “misunderstood/tragic past” route, Horikoshi is making a statement that anyone can go down the wrong path, but that more importantly, anyone can also choose at any time to turn away from said path. there is only one requirement for doing so, and that is realizing that you’ve done wrong, and deciding that you want to change.

anyway, so in chapter 284 Kacchan of course had that whole speech about Deku not taking himself into account, and mentioned how that made him want to keep his distance. and a good chunk of fandom took this to mean that Katsuki’s bullying was actually a misguided response to Deku’s reckless tendencies -- sort of an “if I show him how weak and powerless he really is, I can get him to accept the reality that he’s quirkless, and that being a hero will just get him hurt or killed” type of thing. and I won’t lie, for a good while I was wondering myself if Horikoshi was really going to go down that route. and like I said, I am honestly relieved that he didn’t. not only for the reasons stated in the previous paragraph, but also because the message that would have sent -- that there are certain circumstances in which bullying can almost be excused because the bully had Good Intentions and was just trying to save the other person from themselves, and so it Wasn’t That Bad, Actually -- is all kinds of fucked up to say the least. so yeah, I’m glad we ended up steering well clear of that.

(ETA: this post was long enough already so I edited out the 3 additional paragraphs I originally wrote analyzing the dialogue from 284. but just to be clear, I’m not trying to imply that Kacchan worrying about Deku’s recklessness is a retconned thing that Horikoshi only threw into the story recently, because there are multiple instances throughout the story where he clearly is worried and in total denial of it. but I firmly believe those feelings are not what led to the bullying. they’re two separate things. Kacchan worrying about Deku is what prompts him to yell at him in chapter 1 when Deku comes to save him. but it’s not what incited him to burn his notebook and taunt him earlier in that same chapter. that action had a much meaner and more selfish motivation behind it, and I’m glad Horikoshi didn’t try to change it up last minute, because it wouldn’t have felt right.)

thankfully as of this chapter I think we can safely cross that out as a possibility, as we’re given the true explanation straight from Katsuki himself. and the truth is that he bullied Deku out of insecurity and jealousy and fear and intolerance. there was nothing noble about it. there were no good intentions concealed in his actions. there are no justifications given, no excuses offered, and no mitigating circumstances to be considered, other than the fact (which neither he nor Horikoshi bring up) that he was and is still a child, and that children make mistakes.

it’s an explanation that challenges many of fandom’s ideas on who is and isn’t eligible to be redeemed. there is no Ozai in Katsuki’s backstory. there’s no great tragedy that he spent a lifetime trying to rise above. the only villain in Katsuki’s story is Katsuki himself. the only darkness that he has to overcome is his own. and it’s challenging, because I think many people believe the only way someone can be redeemed for doing bad things is if bad things happen to them in return. but what Horikoshi is saying here is that that’s not the case. bad doesn’t erase bad. and the one and only way to truly earn redemption is by doing good.

and that’s what makes this such a phenomenal scene for me. by not shying away from Katsuki’s flaws and failings, and having him take full responsibility for them, Horikoshi keeps the apology from being self-serving, and underscores the true depth of Katsuki’s character development. the level of self-awareness he has here is something most people can only dream of. which is very fitting, as that’s perhaps the most important takeaway from his character arc -- that it’s only by acknowledging your own weaknesses and flaws that you can learn to overcome them and reach your full potential.

one last thing to point out here, which is that in the panel where Katsuki finally acknowledges his terrible treatment of Deku, Deku is not even visible. instead, Horikoshi drew the panel from a perspective that makes it appear that Katsuki is addressing this particular line not just to Deku, but to all of his classmates.

again, he shows him taking full responsibility and admitting his wrongdoings in front of the people whose opinions and approval he cares about most. and just to clarify in case there’s any confusion from Caleb’s translation, Kacchan’s wording makes it very clear that he wasn’t just “mean” to Deku, but that he full-on bullied him (he uses the same verb -- “ijimeru” (苛める) -- that he did back in chapter 284). there’s no attempt to downplay his actions here.

moving on now, this chapter also reaffirmed another thing about Deku and Kacchan’s relationship which I was glad to see revisited -- Kacchan’s unwavering belief in Deku’s ability. this is one of those paradoxical things about their relationship which I’ve always been fascinated by, but which is also kind of hard to explain, because I don’t want it to come off like I’m trying to put a positive spin on something which was unequivocally awful. like, please don’t think I’m trying to say that Katsuki’s bullying of Deku was in any way a good thing. but that being said, there’s also a strange irony at play here, which is that Katsuki’s jealousy and insecurity also betray the fact that even at his very worst, he never once underestimated Deku. he has always believed in Deku’s strength, even when that strength pissed him off and made him afraid and uneasy.

no one else -- not All Might, or even Deku’s own mom -- believed from the get-go that Deku could become a hero. but Katsuki never once counted him out, even when he was calling him a pebble in his shoe. he confesses here that even though he “tried to act superior by rejecting [Deku]”, in truth he was never able to shake the feeling that Deku was above him. long before he ever understood the concept of “win to save”, he knew instinctively that there was a strength in Deku’s heart that couldn’t be measured, and which had the potential to surpass even his own strength. and I’ve always felt that this was so important, because it’s the one aspect of their early relationship that hinted that on some level, however subconscious, Katsuki held the same type of faith in Deku that Deku always held in him. it was one of the few things that hinted at there being a possible path towards reconciliation one day. and it paved the way for the most important shift in their relationship to date, when Katsuki finally realized who Deku got his quirk from, and responded not with resentment or spite, but with acceptance.

moving on, I also really love the way we see them portrayed at the different stages of their childhood throughout this speech, and how it perfectly lines up with the dialogue. from small children (when Katsuki talks about his insecurities first manifesting), to middle schoolers (when he talks about the bullying), to high schoolers (when he talks about the past year and everything he’s learned at U.A.). Horikoshi really didn’t have to go that hard, but he did, and that’s why we love him.

and then we finally get to That Part.

where do I even start with this there are so many things omg.

the bow. this is the one and only time Katsuki has ever bowed to anyone of his own volition as far as I recall. and this absolutely is a bow, just to be clear, even though his form is straight-up garbage (very Kacchan-esque, with his feet and arms spaced apart because he’s still a punk after all). this is Kacchan showing more humility and respect than he’s ever shown to anyone else in his entire life.

regarding “Izuku”, I actually have mixed feelings about this to tell the truth. I think it was a good call here because it was incredibly effective in setting the tone and showing just how serious Kacchan is. however if he continues to use “Izuku” rather than “Deku” from here on out, that would give the impression in hindsight that all his past usage of “Deku” really was meant as an insult, which would undermine some of my favorite scenes. I would really like to believe that since DvK2 or thereabouts, Kacchan has (mostly) been using “Deku (affectionate)” rather than “Deku (useless loser)”, lol. but if he switches to the “nicer” name on a permanent basis following his apology, it implies that the previous nickname was indeed being used cruelly. and so honestly I hope this was just a one-time thing, because I do think that in Katsuki’s mind, the name “Deku” hasn’t been meant as a slight to him for a long time now.

“my truth/this is what I truly feel” -- the word Katsuki uses in Japanese is honne (本音), and if you’re familiar with the concept of honne/tatemae, that’s the same “honne” he’s talking about here. it means that he’s casting aside all of his walls and facades and expressing what he truly feels. and of course, one of the fascinating things about Katsuki’s character is that he’s the exact opposite of most people in that he chooses to put his meanness on full display to the public, and ironically it’s the kindest parts of himself which he tends to keep the most carefully guarded and hidden away. this also means that while his rage and anger are very often insincere and put on just for show, those relatively few occasions where he lets his humanity truly shine through are pretty much 100% genuine, as is the case with this one here.

and Deku’s face says it all when it comes to how powerful those moments can be as a result.

and this, right here, is why it wasn’t enough for Katsuki to atone solely through his actions, and why he needed to actually say the words as well. it’s not that the words are more important; obviously the actions are far and away the most important part, and carry far more meaning. but the reason why Katsuki needed to say the words as well is simply because Izuku needed to hear them. needed to, and deserved to, because this is one of the most important people in the world to him.

and so he deserves to know that the relationship isn’t just one-sided, and that he is just as important to Kacchan as Kacchan is to him. he deserves to know that Kacchan understands how horribly he treated him, and that he’s sorry for it. and he deserves to know that Kacchan, without any expectation of it changing their relationship -- meaning that he will continue to feel this way regardless of what Izuku says or does from here on out -- cares about him. now more than ever, with AFO out there doing everything in his power to make Izuku feel as alone as possible, this is something that he really, really needed to hear.

so this part has some interesting wordplay which neither Caleb’s translation nor the fan scanlation was really able to get across. basically, in the Japanese version, when Katsuki talks about “those ideals”, Horikoshi uses the kanji for “ideal”, but pronounces it as ��All Might.” obviously the meaning of this isn’t too hard to decipher, as we all know how much both boys admire All Might. to them, he absolutely is synonymous with the Ideal. so this is a way of showing that respect they both have towards him, even as Katsuki goes on to point out the one fatal flaw that All Might was never able to overcome.

and speaking of interesting wording, as others have noted, at this point in his speech Katsuki switches from “temee” (which he was using earlier during the “your strengths and my weaknesses” part) to “omae” (“omae” being a less insulting word for “you”, though still very manly and tough-sounding), which is definitely a big deal. though fwiw this is not the first time he’s used “omae” for Deku (he switches to it briefly right after DvK2, when he tells Deku “you had the strongest guy lay the groundwork for you -- don’t lose”, and then later when they’re walking back to the dorms and he says he’ll learn and get stronger by watching everyone around him just like Deku did). it’s definitely a good choice on Horikoshi’s part though, as it makes this last part of the speech sound more earnest and sincere.

just a quick note, he does indeed use a plural pronoun here, as in “the obstacles that you can’t overcome, we will overcome.” but as @pikahlua pointed out, the “we” here is ambiguous -- it could either mean “we” as in class 1-A -- “we will overcome them for you” -- OR it could mean “we” as in all of them -- class 1-A and Deku. “we will overcome them together.” idk about you, but I know which one gets my vote.

anyway, and so this is the line that finally wins Deku over and allows him to let go of his fears, however briefly. what I love about this is Kacchan’s utter conviction. one thing that Caleb’s translation doesn’t quite get across is Kacchan’s use of the word morenaku -- “without exception” -- when he talks about how they’re going to save everyone and win. it echoes that same sentiment he showed back during the Joint Training arc -- that it’s not a perfect victory unless they save everyone. every last person. and he explicitly lists Deku among their number, just so there can be no doubt.

and Deku’s response to this (or at least his thoughts, since he’s not really able to get many words out) pretty much brings everything full circle here.

he acknowledges that everyone else has gotten ahead of him. which is especially meaningful given who he’s standing directly across from. because for most of the series, as we all well know, it’s been Kacchan who was woefully lagging behind Deku in the character growth department. but now Deku himself is acknowledging that not only has Kacchan finally caught up at last, but that he and the others have surpassed him. which is only temporary, I should add, as I have zero doubt that Deku will catch up again soon. but the fact remains that just as Deku’s rapid increase in strength and skill left Kacchan scrambling to keep up earlier in the series, Kacchan’s extraordinary character development has now left Deku in that same position. as All Might once put it, “when he’s starting at level one, and you’re already at level 50, it’s only natural that you’ll be growing at different rates.”

and what’s so wonderful about this though is that the two of them are finally approaching that point where they’ve both caught up to each other and are finally starting to level out. Deku is a full-on badass, and Kacchan is out here talk-no-jutsuing with the best of them. the two of them have been chasing and chasing after each other this entire time, and now they’re finally just about ready to meet in the middle at long last, with each of them fully embodying both of those two crucial aspects -- win, and save.

just about. because Deku still needs some help catching up. but seeing as help has already been offered -- and accepted -- I can’t imagine it will be very long now, and I can’t wait to see him finally overcoming those fears and doubts with his friends by his side. it’s going to be such a powerful moment.

and last but not least,

or, as I prefer,

you had one job, Caleb. flkjsdlk.

but at least this provides a good opportunity to note that unlike the “we’ll help you handle it” line earlier in the speech, here the phrasing is left up to interpretation, as he doesn’t use a pronoun. so it could be “we know”, or, as the fan scanlation put it, “I know.” or it could be both. regardless, it’s good stuff.

anyway, and so Deku passes out, and in the process Horikoshi gives us one last parting metaphor, just in case anyone still thinks Kacchan is all talk because they haven’t been paying attention for the past 322 chapters (more likely than you think). once again, Katsuki’s actions speak louder than his words (even his nice words) ever could: he is literally there to catch Deku when he falls.

so that’s it! my sincere thanks to anyone who actually read through all of my endless ramblings about this scene which I have been waiting for since day one. props to Horikoshi for taking on an impossibly difficult task, and pulling it off with all of the emotion and care and nuance that I’ve come to expect from his writing. imo he delivered on every single level with the exception of the aftermath, which I don’t consider to have actually happened yet. Deku’s part of this is definitely a “to be continued.” but yeah, as far as Kacchan’s part goes, 10/10. so fucking proud of this kid.

Mizutori’s bakudeku fanfiction master list [complete works]

Really really good writing by these incredible authors. In no particular order! These are all Top!Bakugou and Bottom!Deku. If A/B/O dynamics then it’s Alpha!Bakugou and Omega!Deku. Yes, I have preferences.

Canon World – until 15k

What The Fuck Did You Just Call Me? by reading_raindrop | 8,303 | Izuku starts calling him Bakugou and it pisses the explosive teen off a lot more than he thought it would.

Oh right, you were a little sh*t by SaysiWrites | 5,653 | When Midoriya Izuku gets hit by an age-reversion Quirk, the last thing anyone expected to find out is that Toddler-Izuku is a little shit. Except for one Bakugou Katsuki, who has seen this phase one too many times already. (Bonus+ the entire Little Sh*t (Kidfic) series)

Do Not Disturb by surveycorpsjean | 10,010 | Apply enough force, and something is bound to break.

And Atlas fell by supercrunch | 15,185 | They move in together, after a while. Katsuki joins Best Jeanist and Izuku trains under Gran Torino. They still take comfort in each other every day, curl up in bed and kiss and talk about how life is going. Their live are tumultuous, after all, what with villains and training and rescuing people every week. It’s nice to have something certain. At the end of a day filled with violence and adrenaline, Izuku knows he can come home to someone concrete. It’s perfect. Being a hero is scary and grueling and uncertain, but this part is just right. And then, one day, a child dies in Izuku’s arms.

be loved by bonnia | 5,403 | The kidnapping incident leaves bakugou traumatised about being touched on the back of his neck, and midoriya decides to take matters into his own hands.

Big Protein by Mysecretfanmoments | 13,683 | Bakugou Katsuki has a thriving hero career, an agent to manage his famous attitude, and absolutely zero romantic interest in anyone. With the exception of his favourite health food joint refusing to expand to his city, his life is pretty damn perfect—so why does a viral video revealing Deku's stash of dirty mags involving him and Deku together turn everything upside-down?

Chocolate cake and resin preserved flowers by Anoksun | 11,396 | Izuku loses his memories. Katsuki struggles not to lose Izuku too.

Twin Stars by theperksofbeinglarissa | 8,435 | When Deku saves a woman's life, her quirk is accidentally activated. Her quirk? She reveals a person's soulmate. A star-shaped mark appears on Midoriya's left arm... and on Bakugou's as well. Kirishima is the only one who knows that Bakugou is Midoriya's soulmate, and Bakugou isn't taking the news very well. Can the twin stars of class 1-A work out their differences and find their happy ending?

Unhealthy Fixations by Thesis | 12,522 | Izuku is an adult who knows better than to crush on his childhood bully. AND YET.

Like the Moon by osakakitty | 14,781 | Katsuki Bakugo is having constant, erotic dreams about Izuku Midoriya. He isn’t sure why, but they won’t go away. In order to make them stop, he needs to figure out what Izuku Midoriya means to him.

Worth a Second Shot by cinnabee | 13,080 | Katsuki and Izuku celebrate registering as a Hero Duo together with a big party. What could go wrong?

Like Something Out of A Shoujo Manga by Merrywetherweather | 2,971 | Deku ends up in a rather interesting quirk accident, one that triggers flag events as if he were the protagonist of an otome game.

Canon World – 15k++

Blood Moon by lalazee | 94,860 | The Thank-Fuck-We-Aren’t-Dead Sex had started then, and had never really stopped. Then came the feelings and the fights. The ego, the pride, the jealousy. And then there was Us.

The Way You Used To Do by edema_ruh | 669,463 | During a battle, Midoriya gets hit by a villain whose quirk detaches his soul from his body. Stuck in a ghost-like state, the boy enters a race against time in order to save himself from permanently dying. Much to his luck - or lack of it -, the only person who can see and talk to him in this state is no one other than Kacchan.

Just Like Breathing by MD_Daydreamer | 35,423 | Izuku got engaged. He didn't mind. If that made Uraraka happy, he could do it. He thought his life wouldn't change much.But then, Kacchan went to live in the USA.

briar roses (and hundred years of sleep) by vannral | 15,951 | In which Izuku is hit by a ‘Sleeping Beauty’ Quirk, Class 3-A tries to find his True Love and get them to kiss him, and Katsuki’s very angry about it all.

"what's your type?" by sapphicflower | 20,192 | In order to increase their popularity rankings as up and coming pro heroes, Izuku and Katsuki participate in the most popular late night talk show for hero duos - ‘Heroes Rising!’. They’re killing it, obviously, because they know each other from inside and out. Until one question stumps the two of them: “What is your hero partner’s type?”

and it was Just Right by cinnabee | 23,759 | Katsuki spends two years post-graduation in a furious one-sided competition with his childhood friend and rival's promotional photos - until they finally run into each other, and, well. You shouldn't believe everything you see in magazines. A love story about size differences.

Notice Me, Nerd by useless_donut | 40,000 | Bakugou is in love with Midoriya. He doesn’t hide it, in fact it’s so painfully obvious that the entire class of 3-A has him figured out in a matter of months (days, in some cases). Too bad Midoriya is the most oblivious motherfucker out there, and Bakugou is too damn stubborn to actually ask him out. A love story as witnessed by the class of 3-A.

in your dreams, nerd! by sapphicflower | 37,639 | In a strange and unexpected set of circumstances, Izuku and Katsuki find themselves sharing their dreams together whenever they happen to fall asleep at the same time. Being hopelessly in love with each other, they don’t mind it all that much. What better way to spend time with your crush than in a stupidly vivid dream?

Hear Me by my_name_is_Levi | 22,419 | It wasn’t as if nightmares were uncommon for the freshman class of Yuuei. They’d seen plenty of things, heard and felt and witnessed enough travesty in their lives to last them a lifetime. But Midoriya Izuku was screaming, and no one, not even Bakugo Katsuki could ignore it.

Bridges by supercrunch | 18,018 | Bakugou is signed up for a Calvin Klein modeling gig. The thing is, they really do need the money. And Katsuki's technically the leader of this bunch of morons, so he finds himself taking the job even though his pride will never recover. And even though nobody thought to tell him that he'd be working with his ex-boyfriend. You know, the cute freckled guy from high school who went and broke his heart. So, yeah. This whole situation kind of sucks.

objective truth by mamalade | 15,390 | Izuku gets hit with a truth quirk, as one does. He seems to be handling it well—until Katsuki shows up.

catharsis by dollcewrites | 15,071 | It's been six years since Izuku graduated.It's been six years since he confessed to his childhood friend; his classmate and his inspiration. It's been six years since he deleted Bakugou's number, asked his friends not to mention the name, spent every last effort of his heart turning off the TV and averting his eyes from the newspapers. It's been six, long, long years since he gave up on Katsuki Bakugou ever loving him back.

Here here, my friends and me (You are my familia) by Jeka | 128,832 | Bakugou Katsuki has made a great job of ignoring the fact that he is tragically in love with Deku, someone who could never love him like that and let's face it, he doesn't deserve. Now that he can't ignore it anymore, he has to find a way to keep his childhood friend and move on for his own sake. Or so he had thought, maybe he can have Deku, after all. Izuku has everything he always wanted in life. But suddenly he has to navigate the most important relationship in his life through different eyes.

Canon World – Jealous!

Hands Off by SaysiWrites | 7,140 | When a new girl at school starts flirting with Bakugou, his friends quickly become invested in the idea of their friend experiencing love - even if he doesn't seem at all interested in her. What they don't see is Midoriya fuming in the background. But how can he get rid of her when they've spent so long keeping their relationship a secret?

Surfaces by surveycorpsjean | 25,225 | Katsuki has a new girlfriend, but something isn't right. As impossible as it is, Izuku can't help but wonder what it'd be like to be called Katsuki's girl.

Green-Eyed Beast by SecretKiwi | 4,721 | Everyone wants a piece of Katsuki Bakugou, but they should beware of the Green-eyed beast always lurking close behind him.

Green with Envy by Sol_Morales707 | 2,611 | Izuku Midoriya is not as innocent and pure as everyone thinks he is. The truth was he was very jealous and willing to do anything for a certain blonde.

Happy Camper by Arysa | 7,074 | Wanting a break from the stress of dealing with the rookie Pro Hero grind, a handful of students from Class A decide to go on a camping trip. Izuku's excited to relax and catch up with everyone, especially Kacchan. But, well, Kacchan's... Kacchan. And dating Kirishima.

How to stop time: kiss by Teddingtons | 31,693 | Deku finally asks Uraraka out. Everyone's supportive except Bakugou who can't even look him in the eye. Deku seeks him out after and is hit with truth.

What I Deserve by s_the_queen | 16,671 | When Izuku starts dating a student in General Studies, everyone is happy for him. She's super sweet and really caring. But something doesn't sit right with Katsuki.

Deku's Already Fucking Taken by asdfjkl129 | 20,704 | 5 times people don't realize that Deku is already in a very happy relationship and try their hand at asking him out, and then in Bakugou's unique and special style, get very firmly corrected, +1 time where no correction is needed.

His by sister_elric | 6,206 | Izuku would like to consider himself a pretty level headed individual. Sure, he had the occasional tunnel vision, especially when it came to training. And hero work. And Kacchan. But, overall, Midoriya felt as though he typically kept his cool. Well, maybe that was a stretch. But, at the very least he could understand his own emotions. So, it surprised even him when an unfamiliar emotion coursed through him as a first year approached his boyfriend, Katsuki.

Down the Red Line by MinervaHope | 7,804 | Izuku has been able to see the red strings of fate since birth. It's no surprise that his is connected to Katsuki.

Canon World – Fake Relationship Goes Wrong

how he should’ve known (and how it turned out) by vannral | 43,918 | In which Katsuki and Izuku pretend to be a couple to avoid journalists, the plan backfires magnificently because of course it does, and the act goes on. Includes feelings, pining, domestic fluff and jealousy.

Vicious by feelslikefire | 105,173 | Midoriya and Bakugou wind up in the very last position either of them thought they'd be in: Hero Partners. It's not fun, but they learn to cope. Their first big assignment together takes them undercover to infiltrate a cult, but the situation turns out far more sinister than they first thought.

What I can never tell you by Mikacrispy | 27,067 | After living in the US for 5 years, Izuku returns to take care of a concussed Bakugou who believes they're engaged. Now, Izuku has to pretend he's in a relationship with the man he's loved for most of his life, knowing that it's just a matter of time until Katsuki gets better and realizes it's all a lie.

Not-Dating by MiraChaDoodles | 14,290 | Katsuki takes Deku on a not-date to save his career, only to find himself wishing it were real.

we'll do the things that lovers do by ethereals | 29,544 | Izuku gets an invitation to Shouto's wedding and Katsuki is PISSED that he asks Kirishima to be his date (also he wasn't even fucking invited

Canon World – Friends With Benefits (?)

Four Times Bakugou Katsuki Doesn't Intend to Sleep With Midoriya Izuku (And the One Time that He Does) by fallingraine85 | 17,601 | He hadn’t planned for any of this. He isn’t about to go delving into the ball of yarn that is Midoriya Izuku’s heart; he isn’t equipped to try and untangle and make sense of it all. He isn’t about to try to analyze how he’s feeling about all of this, either.... How many times can you repeat the same mistake?

We Wear Chains on the Weekend by surveycorpsjean | 35,086 | Well, in a day of revelations, it turns out that Izuku isn't as vanilla as Katsuki previously thought. Unfortunately, that fascinating discovery is overshadowed by Izuku's dumbassery, because he has zero concept of aftercare."Don't go to anyone else," Katsuki says, because screw it. He can do a better job anyways. Or; Katsuki finds Izuku on a bad drop.

Just for Now by Shiro_Kabocha | 48,135 | Katsuki's parents are out of town over a school break and to keep him from getting up to any shenanigans, they ask Izuku to house sit with him. What are two teenaged boys to do when left alone to their own devices? (Bonus+ the entire Just for Love series)

safe in the darkness by yoonskisses | 20,855 | Izuku and Katsuki had been meeting up secretly for months, with absolutely no feelings involved. Or so Katsuki thought at least. The dorm gossip about Ochaco and Izuku's new relationship seemed to set a spanner in the works for their arrangement.

Alternative Universe – No Quirks

Bluebird by EtherealBeing | 53,108 | Dialing a wrong number was no unusual occurrence. Everyone did it once in a while, and Katsuki was well aware of that fact. However, possessing this knowledge made it no less aggravating for him to discover — a full two minutes into his rant about his day — that he’d been venting his frustrations to a complete stranger. As if that wasn't enough, said stranger was also inexplicably determined to hear his story to its end.

Someone Borrowed by mynameis152 | 138,996 | It felt like hours that he stared at Izuku, coming to terms with the fact that a man, his childhood best friend, whom he hadn’t seen since their senior year of high school, was there in front of his very eyes. Then his brows furrowed and his jaw clenched before he uttered through gritted teeth the very name Izuku had longed to hear for years. “Deku.”

Dark Side of the Sun by Synnie | 51,598 | Staying up too late playing video games, Kirishima wasn't expecting to get an urgent call begging for help. Next thing he knew, he was letting his classmate Izuku Midoriya take refuge in his apartment - without consulting his always angry roommate.

Manage Me by Justaperson1718 | 10,756 | Izuku becomes Katsuki’s model agent.

Don't Set Your Drink Down by Crandberrycrush | 88,424 | With sudden clarity Izuku realized he had broken the first rule of going out. Never leave your drink unattended.

Livewire by pretty_rekless | 18,160 | Per Ochako's request, Izuku downloads a gay dating app in hopes to finally find a partner. Except every single one of his leads keep ghosting him or standing him up... That is until one hot, fiery blond enters the chat. Grindr/Tinder AU fic.

Drinking Watermelon by warschach | 8,906 | Katsuki works as a camp counselor, and Izuku is a boy made of summer heat and sunlight.

Precious Pet by Mikacrispy | 6,379 | When broke college student Midoriya Izuku found a job that offered lodging, food, and good pay for four hours of work each day, he thought it was too good to be true. But he called anyway. Turns out all he has to do is to be the spoiled little puppy of a rich businessman.

Our Eleven Summers by Dark_Mage_Ayumu | 34,472 | The first time Katsuki met Izuku was when he was eight. For the next eleven years, Izuku changed his life, and no one even knew. Their relationship was something they shared in secret.

sticky note crushes by ladyofsnails | 3,239 | Katsuki hates his roommate. The green-haired, freckled, artsy son of a bitch with his dumb pun t-shirts and paint-stained hands he can’t fucking keep to himself. Katsuki can’t leave a single assignment or paper out in his room because that idiot will just grab anything to draw on it. He’s like a shark that can’t stop swimming else it’ll die – he can’t stop drawing. Ever.

Don't Play Pretend by SweetSide | 10,103 | Actor AU: Deku and Bakugou get the leading roles for an upcoming TV Drama. They weren’t aware that they would be working with each other for who knows how long. It would’ve been completely fine if they weren’t exes.

97.6 FM by jamjars | 32,249 | Izuku can’t stop listening to the radio host with the deep voice who sounds like he’s stuck in 2010. It’s a harmless crush. That is until he starts calling into the show under the pseudonym Deku.

Read {between} Your Lines by greatcloudninja | 52,252 | Midoriya Izuku, up-and-coming actor, has finally hit his big break (...), Bakugou Katsuki, who has been acting for over twenty years.However, Bakugou seems to have it out for Izuku, leading to tension both on and off set. When some incriminating photos surface, the studio suggests (...): having Bakugou and Midoriya fake a relationship to get ahead of the rumors.

I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts by PassingShadow | 5,522 | Izuku is a professional cuddler and Katsuki is his new client that’s just a little rough around the edges, and needs a natural healing touch.

Call Me a Safe Bet (I'm Betting I'm Not) by WTTTD | 10,803 | He wished he had some sort of heads up before seeing Deku again for the first time after nearly two years, looking like the essence of a lazy Sunday, smiling and surrounded with brand new, adoring friends. It was a little fitting that Katsuki burned for him so badly. (Support Department Deku)

In Which Kacchan Has a Ruff Time by OneshotPrincess | 14,511 | Bakugou Katsuki gets quirked into a dog, gets adopted by an unknowing Izuku and generally has a very rough few days full of realizations

Somehow it all works out. ‘Kill them with kindness’, his mom had told him once. If that were true, Bakugou Katsuki would be stone-cold dead by now.

Smile For The Camera by kurokonekokilled | 19,179 | Midnight has a cam site, home to millions of users, but one catches Katsuki's eye when he goes scrolled through it in search for something to help him release a little stress. A live stream and the best orgasm of his life later, his wallet is lighter, and he might be almost as obsessed with this Deku guy as the cam boy is with him.

Just Like The Comics by brichibi | 24,935 | Where Izuku works at a comic book shop because that’s as close to a hero as he’s gonna get, and Katsuki plays the part of heroic ex-boyfriend who is good at everything except winning Izuku back... maybe

So when he's stopped on the streets one day by a pup begging for help for his mom, he isn't prepared to face what he gave up, and what the consequences of his actions were. (Quirkless Deku)

A/B/O – Quirks

Mark Me. Make Me Yours. by decadentbynature | 10,062 | Midoriya is the only Omega at UA and he's been hiding it well but there's one issue that threatens to expose him: his attraction to an Alpha, Bakugo. After being told to give some paperwork to Bakugo, Midoriya lets him into his dorm room and is immediately overwhelmed by his scent. Unable to help himself, he gives in to his urges, only to be discovered by Bakugo but instead of becoming enraged, Bakugo decides to give Midoriya exactly what he wants

Claim Me by ScientificallySinful (VampireGaaraCheesepuffs) | 114,449 | Being an Alpha has nothing to do with Katsuki's success as a Pro-Hero, the same way Deku's Omega status hasn't kept him from becoming Number Two. Secondary gender doesn't mean anything nowadays and “mating” is an antiquated practice. So when Izuku, his rival, asks Katsuki to Claim him in the middle of the night, there is only one logical thing to say. “What the fuck?”

Change of Plans by Mikacrispy | 185,965 | Alpha Pro Hero Bakugou Katsuki never planned to get married to some random omega but what he wants isn't an option anymore. One for All wielder Midoriya Izuku has suffered injustice too many times and doesn't plan in allowing his secondary gender to dictate how he must live his life. Falling in love was never in the plans.

Going Feral For You by ANGIE_fic | 17,977 | Bakugou has an aggression problem that might have to do with his Alpha. His job is on the line because of it. So what do you do with a pent up Alpha? Yes.Rut. (Quirkless Izuku)

i live for you, i long for you by jeonjeonggukkkkkie | 19,165 | The five times Izuku hinted he wants Katsuki to spend his next heat with him, and the one time Katsuki took the hint.

Baby's First Bloom by ContraryBee | 44,945 | Izuku blooms for Katsuki one warm day in their third year of middle school. What follows is both boys learning about themselves, their bond, and the society they live in.

As Fate Would Have It by ScientificallySinful (VampireGaaraCheesepuffs) | 88,737 | Katsuki Bakugo had plenty of reasons why he wasn't mated yet, not that he was going to explain why to just anyone. But now, Ground Zero was running out of time. If he didn't find someone soon, he'd lose his position as a Pro-Hero and he'd never get to be #1. So, when he finds out there's a male Omega recently arrested for prostitution that's headed to prison if he too doesn't get a mate…well it must be fate. (Quirkless Izuku)

A/B/O – No Quirks

Gravity by warschach | 71,477 | Izuku is back in his hometown and plenty hasn't changed much from the 8 years he was gone. Except, Katsuki Bakugou, the alpha king of their small town. He's hotter- because that's fair, right, God? -, stronger, a now-famous pro fighter, and noticeably nicer this round.Not that he cares, pfft. (Fine, he cares.)

Nine Months by greatcloudninja | 23,303 | Omega Midoriya Izuku connects with Alpha Bakugou Katsuki through an online singles ad. Izuku pays Katsuki to help him with his heat, ending up pregnant in the process. What follows is a pregnancy filled with ups and downs, but whatever hurdles come their way, they can make it through together.

The long dark by Ominous-Anonymous (Ominonymous) | 13,289 | He could have been really dangerous. He could be a fucking murderer for all he knew. But Izuku Midoriya, ever the reckless daredevil, was not thinking of that when he got into a car with a complete stranger. Completely ignoring the part where his mother always taught him to never gets into cars with alphas he didn't know...

“Entrance Exam Arc” & “Quirk Apprehension Test Arc” Dissection

Katsuki is Still Mad About Not Being The Main Character

Contents:

I: Quiet Before The Storm

II: Beginning of Toxic Rivalry

III: Aggressive Intelligence

IV: Wrap Up

I: Quiet Before the Storm

We get nothing from Katsuki after he gets attacked. He’s completely silent throughout chapter 2 which takes place over the span of ten fucking months. No training, no coping with his near death experience, no bullying Izuku. Except this one panel where his silent speaks louder than his usual brash words.

He’s not saying anything but it’s also obvious that he’s not ignoring what just happened. Izukus class bullies him for being quirkless. Katsuki only uses his quirklessness as ammunition and to remind himself that he has something Izuku doesn’t. Katsuki isn’t saying anything here because he knows full well that Izuku can get into UA, quirk or no quirk. He also knows that there’s no harm in Izuku training for the entrance exam and it’d be unreasonable to belittle someone who isn’t doing anything wrong when he just saved his life. Instead, he shows empty aggression but doesn’t act on it at all. His silence in this panel is his way of showing the little gratitude he has for what Izuku did for him.

II: Beginning of Toxic Rivalry

This is the start of actual rivalry. Not just needless one sided violence. This is the first of many times that these two are compared to one another on opposite sides of the spectrum by people in the story not nerdy manga readers that look too much into their relationship because they’re bored.

They’ll continue to be compared to one another and Katsuki is going back to his hostile ways because of it. Because they’re now stuck together.

There’s anger there. But there’s also a hint of concern if you squint. It’s not concern for Izuku, it’s more concern of what’s happening to him and why it’s happening so fast. Izuku is quirkless and weak, how’d he suddenly get strong and confident enough to not only apply but, to make it into UA? How’d he suddenly develop the guts to stand up to him?

III: Aggressive Intelligence

Katsuki is intelligent and inventive and we don’t start to see that side of him until the quirk apprehension test when we see one of the several ways he uses his quirk. We’ve only seen him use explosions as a weapon up to this point when he shows he knows how to use it for mobility as well explains how he does it successfully.

I actually really like this panel. Like I said, it shows a side of Katsuki we haven’t seen yet up to this point. It shows how much he thinks about his power. The more uses he can come up with, the more powerful. But not only that, it shows his curiosity about Izuku and not being angry about it for once.

I think this has to do with the earlier observation of Katsuki wondering how Izuku got into UA and feeling that something isn’t right with the situation. He wants to see what changed and what’s special about him now but instead he’s seeing the same old quirkless Izuku he grew up with. What changed?

(Of course this scene, being kind of important to Katsukis character in a sense that it shows he’s really not all bad, the dubbed version of the anime ruins it by making him seem like the cockiest asshole alive.)

…his question got answered

But this representation of newfound power did nothing but left him with even more questions.

newsflash, Katsuki is a conspiracy theorist, Horikoshi told me.

I’m sorry but, if he was just a pebble why would you bully him for ten years and get particularly frustrated when it came to Izuku specifically? Why would the mere mention of him piss you off so much? Why do you suddenly see him as this extreme threat just because he used this quirk you didn’t know about to throw a ball 0.1m farther than you? Don’t act like you wouldn’t have still bullied him if he had manifested a quirk when you were little. Whether you want to admit to it or not, you know you didn’t bully him for being quirkless. You used his quirklessness to justify your resentment and bullying and used it as ammunition. Sir, don’t pretend like you didn’t already know this boy was never ‘just a pebble’. Why suddenly reduce Izuku to something you know he’s not?

I’m putting emphasis on this panel because he’s always used the same insults towards him… “nerd”, “deku”, “useless”. Up to this point he’s referred to Izuku as someone he needed to put in his place. Those factors plus the fear/confusion in his face, it feels more like he’s trying to convince himself that Izuku was, and should’ve stayed a pebble when he knows he never even considered him as something that small, hence the emphasis on the memory from their childhood of the two of them in the woods… the first pleasant memory that we see from their childhood. If anything, Katsuki tried his best to shrink Izuku down to the size he thought he deserved to be but knew he wasn’t.

IV: Wrap Up

This is the start of even more unjustifiable anger and resentment towards Izuku for Katsuki. The problem that I don’t even think he realizes he has, is getting worse. He sees his problem as Izukus existence when his real problem is his own insecurity and how he lets Izukus growth effect him. While Izukus confidence and power is increasing, so is Katsukis self doubt and insecurity and he isn’t sure how to express it other than projecting it on Izuku because that’s what he’s always done. More insecurity = more aggression.

The next post in this series is gonna be Deku vs Kacchan and I’m excited to dump my thoughts on it. It’s the first of many of my favorite moments in the series.

Hii, I think your requests are open but I am not sure, so uhm, if they're not open just delete my ask and pretend it was never there, I'd hate to be disrespectful of you. Would you write about Deku, Shoto and Bakugo (or instead of Baku take Shoji) with an s/o that isn't in the hero course and has a shrinking quirk? Like mount lady but reverse, she can get as small as an ant but usuly when she does shrink she'll be shoulder sitting sized? That could make some adorable things like aaaaaaaa >///

fem!s/o with a shrinking quirk

[a/n: uhmm this concept is so adorable 🥺 thank you for the request anon, you’re so polite 💓 I decided to do all 4 boys so I hope that’s okay, sorry if it seems short...I wrote this in between classes hehe 🙈 enjoy!! -yours truly, bunnyy -`ღ´- ]

midoriya izuku

✤ you bet your diddly doo that this boy has MULTIPLE pages about your quirk

✤ when he first saw you use your quirk it was during the sports festival, you were standing there one second but then it seemed like you just disappeared

✤ he was stunned to see how much strength you actually had even when you were that size

✤ he was convinced that you and shinso were robbed of your spots in the hero course but there wasn’t much he could do about it

✤ I think it would take him a while to finally approach you, but when he does, he’s absolutely ecstatic that you didn’t mind all of his questions

✤ baby boy was quite literally vibrating with excitement

✤ “t-thank you so m-much for answering my questions, (l-l/n)-san.” He was stuttering so much but he couldn’t help it, he was talking to such a beautiful girl

✤ “it’s no problem but call me (y/n), at least that’s what my friends call me.” Now he was bright red as if he wasn’t already

✤ “f-friends?”

✤ but of course “friends” weren’t forever because soon after that, you both had confessed your feelings for each other

✤ from then on, he introduced you to a few of his 1-A class mates

✤ oh boy what a mistake that was

✤ you had gotten along really well with Denki of all people, so one day, the both of you prank bakugo apparently you both have a death wish and of course it backfired

✤ you had burst into the classroom with a panicked kaminari behind you, eyes frantically searching for a certain freckled boy. Your heart beating faster when you could hear explosions getting closer

✤ “Izu! Hide me!”

✤ “huh!? wait how will I-“ he was cut off when you sat on the desk and activated your quirk (you were about 4inches or 10cm tall) and made grabby hands at him

✤ he placed his hand near the edge of the desk so you could jump on

✤ “now put me in your jacket pocket!” Your voice was super cute but he held off his fanboying and did what you said, carefully placing you in his pocket

✤ perfect timing too

✤ “WHERE’S THAT DAMN BRAT?! I KNOW SHE’S IN HERE!!” he caught a glance of kaminari’s blonde hair and growled

✤ “I SEE YOU, DUNCE HEAD!!” And with that, they both were off

✤ you stood up and let your head peak out of the pocket

✤ “(y/n)?! Oh my gosh! That’s so cute!” Mina cooed, making both you and midoriya blush

✤ he carried you around on his shoulder often, he thought it was adorable

✤ he once hid you in the side pocket of his backpack and snuck you into the dorms

✤ it was a success so it was cuddle time!!

✤ if anyone ever bullied you about your quirk, he wad instantly be at your defense and comfort you if you needed it

✤ “Don’t listen to them (y/n), your quirk is amazing and very useful, especially in missions where....” and he went on rambling

✤ but it’s the thought that counts

✤ oh!! I almost forgot!

✤ whenever you were sat on his shoulder and feeling mischievous, stand up and give him kisses on the cheek or neck ;)

✤ this will always effectively fluster him into a blushing and stuttering mess

shoto todoroki

❆ uhm if you weren’t in the hero course, it would take him a little longer to notice you

❆ but you were friends with ochako so he actually often saw you at lunch

❆ one day, you were all sat down and midoriya asked about your quirk and since everyone seemed interested, you gave ‘em a little demonstration

❆ he was kinda paying attention but the soba was so good so he missed the part where you shrunk down a bit but when a gust of wind knocked you over and you landed in front of him, his eyes widened

❆ you were so tiny 🥺

❆ he held out a finger to you and you smiled greatfuly before grabbing onto it and hoisting yourself up, making sure to dust yourself off

❆ he thought your quirk was rather interesting and whenever you shrunk down to size, he would go all doe eyed because he thought you were so precious

❆ you reminded him of the fairies in the bed time stories his mother used to tell him

❆ (i will fight you if you don’t think he used to LOVE hearing about dragons or fairies and fantasy stories when he was a little boy 😤)

❆ once he realized his feelings for you, he just straight up told you

❆ you guys were the cutest couple, the prince and a fairy (ugh oh my god this is freaking cute)

❆ when you first mentioned that you wanted to try and sit on his shoulder while he walked around and stuff, he was a bit apprehensive since he was afraid of dropping you

❆ so you started off easy, you’d sit on his shoulder while he was doing his homework or something and once he was comfortable with that, then you guys got to the moving around thing

❆ he would love it if you sat on his shoulder while he read a book, and he’d read it to you

❆ as much as he loves your quirk, I honestly don’t see him wanting to just rather hold your hand while ya’ll walked around or something but give him those puppy dog eyes and he’d do anything for you

❆ he’d never out right say it but he loves when your on his shoulder and just nuzzle his cheek

❆ he’d call you his little fairy 🥺🦋

❆ “can I please, I’ve had a really long day.” You pouted.

❆ he softly gripped your chin and gently tugged you closer to his lips

❆ “hop on, my little fairy.” He leaned down and gently met you lips, slowly moving them against yours before pulling away and watching as your cheeks and the tips of your ears turned pink

❆ I’m so soft for this boy

bakugo katsuki

✸ pfft i’m sorry, i just had to use this gif

✸ okay so he’d be all like, “Why would I care about some damn extra!!” As he usually is but specially if you weren’t a part of the hero course

✸ but you were friends with kirishima so he learned to deal with you

✸ he originally saw you do the shoulder thing with kiri and he thought he was having a stroke or something

✸ “kirishima, why do you have a damn bug on your shoulder?”

✸ “huh? Oh that’s (y/n)!”

✸ “hey! Who are you calling a bug, you jerk!”

✸ “call me a jerk again and I’ll squash you like a damn insect! Got that you idiot?!”

✸ one time, you fell asleep on denki’s shoulder and he forgot you were there

✸ so when bakugo saw him acting like a ‘reckless idiot’ he swooped in to save you

✸ he gently picked you up by the collar of your shirt and he put you on his own shoulder, making sure to walk around carefully as to not disturb your sleep

✸ you had accidentally disactivated your quirk so you went back to normal size, causing the both of you to fall to the ground with you laying on top of him

✸ he was in shock so he didn’t really move, your noses were touching, his arms had gone around your waist to hold you still

✸ “I’m so sorry, I-“ you had tried to get up be his hold on your waist only tightened

✸ “shut up! I’m trying to think!”

✸ he turned his head a bit and placed an experimental kiss on your lips

✸ well you definitely weren’t complaining anymore

✸ uhh he’d act like he absolutely hates having you on his shoulder

✸ he lives for it

✸ he likes to have you on his shoulder while he cooks so you guys can talk and whatever

✸ if you’re ever being a brat while on his shoulder, he’ll threaten to drop you in the hot oil

✸ he likes to tease you when you’re tiny

✸ as retaliation, you take his things while your tiny, like you’ll steal his eraser or something and he’d tear up his backpack looking for it before he finally spots it on the desk with you sitting on it

✸ he constantly worries about you because denki and sero like to mess with you when you’re in tiny mode

✸ it’s been too many times that he’s found you taped to something while posting about it

✸ i feel bad for the poor soul that decides it’s a good idea to bully you for your quirk

✸ he would quite literally, ‘blow up their asses’

mezo shoji

♡ I think shoji is a little apprehensive about making new friends since he’s a bit insecure but he’s open to the idea

♡ so when he sees that you’re eating lunch alone, he decided to sit with you

♡ you were surprised that he had sat across from you, you froze in place while looking at him

♡ he hadn’t said anything though, he just ate his lunch and you relaxed, continuing to eat yours

♡ this went on for a couple of weeks before you finally broke the ice by offering him some of your onigiri, you watched as he grabbed the onigiri and fed it into the mouth on one of his arms

♡ “your quirk is really cool!” His eyes widened at your sudden confession, he watched as a blush formed on your cheeks and looked away. “sorry, I hope I didn’t make you uncomfortable...”

♡ he just chuckled and shook his head

♡ from then on the two of you would share your lunch with each other

♡ “come to think of it, I don’t know what your quirk is.”

♡ it was the first time you guys were hanging out outside of school, he had invited you to the dorms and you two were in the common room drinking some tea

♡ “I guess you’re right—hey! what’s that?!” he whipped around to where you were pointing

♡ “What? There’s...there’s nothing-what?” Once he had turned back to you, you were gone. “(Y/n)?”

♡ as he was looking around, you climbed up his sleeve and onto his shoulder, “I’m right here silly~” he looked around once more but couldn’t find you, “yoo-hoo! Shoji-kun!!”

♡ he looked down to his shoulder and oh...you were tiny

♡ he placed his hand near his shoulder and you jumped onto it, holding onto his finger as he held you right in front of his eyes

♡ he definitely wasn’t expecting that, he was so caught off guard that he started to blush (not that you’d be able to tell)

♡ you guys would also train together often and it was during one of those training sessions that he had confessed to you

♡ when you guys start dating, he’d definitely love to have you on his shoulder all the time...he can’t help it, he thinks you’re adorable

♡ “shoji...”

♡ “yes mr. Aizawa?”

♡ “what’s that on your shoulder?” You froze and trying to think of where to hide. “don’t make me do it.” He sighed

♡ “...do what?” Shoji tried playing dumb as he heard your tiny ‘oh crap!’ as you jumped off his shoulder, right when you did was when Aizawa activated his quirk and you reverted to normal size, falling to the ground

♡ there was a few giggles from the class as you got up, looking around

♡ “(y/n)? How’d you get there?” Shoji continued his act

♡ “you know, I was wondering the same thing...”

♡ “miss (l/n), please go back to class.”

♡ “yes sir.”

♡ that wasn’t the last time the two of you tried that

♡ he would also enjoy if you nuzzled and kissed his cheek while on his shoulder

♡ he vowed to protect you if anything were to ever happed

♡ he thinks you’re adorable, mini sized or not

Hello, can I get a short fic a/b reader who's dating Deku, but both are unaware that Bakugou likes reader also? Reader isn't a fan of Bakugou and always complains to Deku about how he kisses his ass too much and lets him get away with ish. Reader is definitely more sensitive/indignant than Deku tbh.

*ahem* this took embarrassingly long. But,, here. I like it <3

Bakugou X Reader X Deku

SFW, mild angst

Contains: yelling, insults, implied self harm *briefly at the end, very vauge*, bakudeku if you squint, references of suicide *in refrence to middle school Deku*

Katsuki Bakugou was not jealous. Bakugou was confident and was going to be a top hero, and top heroes didn’t have time to be jealous. And, above all that, he was not jealous if stupid Deku.

Sure, maybe he was mad that dumb Deku got a partner before he did, but it wasn’t personal. Bakugou definitely didn't think about you. He didn’t think about the way your hands would look in his, the way it would look when his much larger arm rested around your waist. He didn’t think about sparring with you all the time, the way your body would look glistening in sweat as you cave him all you had. He only thought about sparring with you because he wanted to kill you, you were just another extra… right?

But you were soft, delicate even. But, you also were assertive, not all peppy like the other girls. You were always looking for a fight. You wanted to protect people, not just save them. You weren’t afraid to kick Mineta in the balls (both sets), and you weren’t afraid of hero work. You never hesitated to jump into the fight. You were heroic- worth Bakugou’s time.

It made sense you would like Deku more than him, it made sense Deku would get you. Deku was going to be a pro hero too, and with the way All Might dotes after him, he would be a hell of a hero too. Deku was smart, he was kind, and he was a decent fighter. He was everything that Bakugou wasn't.

Because to you, Deku was a hero. He was going to save the world one day. But Bakugou was just a villain who managed to fool everyone into letting him be a hero. To you, Deku was kind and caring; Bakugou was just loud and violent. When Deku was emotional, Bakugou was just loud. He was a prick to you, and he knew it-and that destroyed him.

***

“Hey Kacchan! Come hang out with us tonight!” Deku stood over Bakugou's desk, freckled face glowing as he smiled. Bakugou noticed your presence behind Deku. You were trying to hide your annoyance, Bakugou noticed.

“No way would I ever hang out with you losers.”

Kirishima grabbed Bakugou’s shoulders, squeezing him playfully. “C’mon Bakugou! It’ll be fun.”

“Fuck off, shitty hair. I’m not going.”

Deku looked defeated. You knew how badly he wanted to hang out with Bakugou again. You didn’t see why of course- Bakugou was a jerk and wasn’t worth your boyfriend’s time. But, alas, you would do anything for the green haired boy.

You gave Bakugou a side glance, “Everyone is going- it would make you lame if you were the only one who missed.”

Bakugou looked at you, both angered and intrigued. “Huh? What did you say to me?” He rose from his seat, leaning around Deku to see you closer. You looked him in the eyes, not intimidated or threatened. Deku looked vaguely panicked next to the both of you.

“I said you would look like the class loser to skip. It’s just a group hang out, Kacchan.” You teased his nickname, knowing it would set him off.

Bakugou tried to leap forward to you, sparks setting off from his hands. “Shut up, dumb bitch!”

You were about to hit him first, before Deku grabbed you to hold you back, his large arms containing you. Kirishima held down Bakugou, having to harden his arms to hold the explosive boy back.

Deku drug you off somewhere, whispering in your ear in an attempt to calm you down. Kirishima sat Bakugou down. “Dude, you have to accept that she doesn’t like you.”

Bakguou rolled his eyes, looking out the classroom window. He knew you didn’t but he wasn’t going to accept it.

“You have to move on. It isn’t manly to fight a girl.”

“It’s plenty okay to fight her, she started it!” Bakugou sat down in his seat, mumbling angrily. “and I don't like her- she's just as shitty as all of you extras.”

Kirishima looked Bakugou up and down, seeing through his bullshit. “Whatever you say, bro.”

Bakugou let out a ‘tch’, thinking back at your interaction. He never wanted to actually hurt you, maybe playfully rough you up, but not genuinely hurt you. He never meant to yell at you either, you clearly preferred softer guys anyway.

***

“You really shouldn’t fight Kacchan so much-”

You snapped your eyes to Midoriya, blood still boiling. “And why is that?”

“He didn’t do anything.”

“He did everything. He’s a jerk.”

“He’s going to be a hero just like us, Y/N, one of the best-”

“Not with the way he treats people. He’s going to be a shitty hero-”

“Don’t say that. You don’t know Kacchan the way I do.” Midoriya tried to reach for your hand, but you swatted it away.

“Do you even know him? He bullied you in middle school and was never really your friend as a kid. Honestly, Izuku, I don’t know why you kiss his ass so much, he will never respect you back and is always going to make your life, everyone’s life, hell.”

Midoriya’s jaw dropped at your words, unsure of what to do. You had never been this mad at him, or at anyone. Small fits of anger were a normal occurrence for you, but normally a minute alone and a kiss to the forehead would put you at ease- but this was beyond Midoriya.

You crossed your arms, walking away from Midoriya. He ran behind you, trying to catch up.

“Wait, Y/N, you can’t just leave.”

“Yes I can. I can’t be around that blond headed shit stick anymore or I’ll fight him.”

“You would win-”

“Don’t kiss my ass now, Midoriya.”

Midoriya looked to the ground. He really wanted to support you, but he also knew that he respected Kachan. To him, Bakugou was a hero, someone he looked up to. Bakugou was powerful, his quirk was amazing. He had the talent and skills to become a hero. He was someone who demanded authority and respect, he was a talented hero. He was amazing.

“I’m sorry, just don’t go yet-” he peaked up at you, your body leaning against the wall, head in hands.

“I won't go anywhere.”

“Good. Perfect.” Midoriya walked to you, pulling you into his chest, wrapping his arms to rest on your waist. He placed soft kisses on your hairline.

“I’m sorry I got mad.” Your voice was not much more than a mumbled, muffled in his shirt.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry Kacchan doesn’t listen.”

You tensed, aggravated Midoriya just wasn't getting it.

“Why do you respect him?” You peeled back, looking up at him. Midoriya’s arms stayed firm around your waist. “To me, he just seems mean. I mean, the kid bullied you your entire life. He told you to kill yourself ‘Zuku. Why do you keep pining after him?”

Midoriya blinked. “I don’t know. I just think hes going to be a great hero, and I admire that.”

You let out a defeated sigh. “So is Todoroki, and he’s nice to you!”

“I do respect Todoroki-”

“Not as much as you respect Bakugou.”

Midoriya stayed silent. You were right, he just didn’t agree with you. He was someone of reason who tried to work his way through things logically, but your view of Kacchan didn’t make sense to him. Yea, he was sort of loud and abrasive, but that was just one of those things about him, like how Todoroki is blunt and Iida is controlling. It wasn’t bad, it was just part of him. He knew that he didn’t have the best relationship with Bakugou in the past, but things can change; people can change. It was all water under the bridge now. You were all going to be heroes soon, none of that middle school stuff mattered, not to Midoriya anyways.

“Let's just go back to class. We can worry about this later.” You started to pry yourself out of Midoriya’s grasp, his arms only pulling you in closer to him.

“Thank you for trying to listen to me. I promise Kacchan wont lash out to you again, okay?”

You nodded, not really believing him. Most of the time, you were the one who pissed Bakugou off first anyways. Midoriya placed a chaste kiss to your lips, letting his hands fall from your waist to find your hands. He placed a small kiss to your knuckles, watching your grow pink with the familiar blush he loved to see.

***

Bakugou watched Deku kiss you, his arms holding you close. It made him sick. You should have been in his arms, his hand on your waist, his lips on yours. His hands tightened into fists, small burns forming on his own palms. He knew he wasn’t what you wanted, he knew you weren’t ever going to like him, but he couldn't stop pining after you. He couldn’t stop daydreaming about you, how he would treat you, the places he would take you.

When you walked back into the room with Deku, both of you avoided his traveling gaze. You shot him a fast glare before Deku could usher you both back to your seats next to each other, Iida immediately lecturing you.

It was the first time you saw Bakugou without his angry scowl, but rather, a sad frown.

woo boy this has been gathering dust in my drafts for awhile but shhh we don't need to address that- *sweating*

new headcannon; except this time, it's MHA/BNHA (whichever you prefer) because we all need a break,,,i think-

okay today we'll be talking about our good 'ol childhood friends turned bully and victim turned whatever the hell they have going on now.

if you don't know who i'm talking about, you either just aren't apart of the fandom, or you choose to ignore their middle school years (which, while tragic, that's valid).

now enough waffling on, onto the actual AU. I present to you;

"comfort best friends katsuki and izuku"

so. we all know that while they were kids they were the best of friends, right? they were stuck together like glue and..more glue? and that's cute and all, but i don't care about that for this au (well i mean i kinda do but yeh). quirkless deku rolls around and bakugou is still the ass he is in canon. swan dive, bullying etc etc. but here's where it gets interesting.

the sludge villain;

izuku was probably traumatised after that i mean like,,he was like 12??? dude idk but he was young. and then assmight saying he can't be a hero yada yada (*coughs* hypocrite-). story goes the same on the bases that bakugou gets attack, deku saves him. but, imagine that if instead of bakugou and deku yelling at each other, it starts off as bakugou yelling at deku and then breaking down crying? surely, bakugou would have also been traumatised (as we see later on in the canonical series). it's not like just because he's a bully, he's still not 12.

anyway, bakugou breaks down crying bc shock and stuff, and deku sorta just hugs him and drags him back home. they have dinner together and end up spilling everything that has happened in the past few years. and then,,,bakugou brings up his quirk giving him tinnitus. you get your ass izuku slaps him and then tells him he should've told him earlier.

they (re)become best friends and now that they're back together (aS FRIENDS. STRICTLY FRIENDS BECAUSE I'M A SUCKER FOR THAT) they're personalities have started to rub off on each other. izuku starts swearing a little more (he only will swear is he's really angry (or if he stubs his toe bc that shit HURTS man)), gets more bold and sarcastic, but also gets better at spotting the telltale things that katsuki does when he gets uncomfortable, the ringing in his ears getting louder etc.

same goes for katsuki; he got better at communication, he likes to analyse things (mostly how explosives work but shhhhhhh) but like izuku was able to notice if something was wrong - just like when they were children. for the rest of middle school they learnt JSL and french (you can't tell me bakugou wouldn't grow up learning some french; his parents are fashionistas for gods sake).

Let's fast forward to UA. they both got in, because i'm to lazy to write that all out. midoryia still breaks his arm like the fool he is (oh yeah oops i forgot to mention izuku is still quirkless because i hate all might and uhhh yeh that's it) but he gets let go after recovery girl scolds him because katsuki comes over to yell at him for his dumbass-ery.

they're both in 1A - it's the first day. oh no, such nervousness. yeh no, i'm kidding. those two idiots took the train to school and probably left those poor passengers either traumatised or questioning reality. anyway, they're insulting each other - as best friends do, and they get to the 1A door. of course katsuki kicks the door and enters with a "wHATSUP MOTHERFUCKERS" which is followed by a monotone "yeehaw" from izuku. Iida is the only one there bc idk uhhh cannon??? idk broski. anyway, he's shooketh bc how dare these delinquents show such disrespect in such a prestigious place. he proceeds to yell at them and the two friends just look at each other and snicker (ignoring Iida's squawk of protest as they go and sit down). they pretty much do their thing until all the other students come in. they see aoyoma and immediately know these three years are going to be good (think of all the gossip they could do).

everybody has sat down and are like "wtf where the teacher at ayo" cue aizawa walking (when i say walking, i more mean he rides a skateboard on his stomach while in his sleeping bag because that's just a funny mental image) into class and everybody just like goes dead silent. izuku just says "what are thooooooose" and after five minutes of awkward silence aizawa goes "they are my crocs." and bakugou starts fucking WHEEZING in the background. safe to say, aizawa already hates this year.

skipping over the quirk assessment test and a bunch of plot bc i'm lazy. UA dorm shenanigans yeehaw. deku squad is a thing, as is the bakusquad. most of the class have bonded over trauma at this point (*coughs in villain attacks*) and they're all p chill. some of the class is super confused because like,,,what *ARE* izuku and katsuki??? are they friends? enemies?? fucking?? the answer is option a) and b) (but they prefer the term "RiVaLs").

shenanigan no #1; aoyama joins le french squad

so, as friends that both know french they're going to do the obvious thing and talk shit about others in a language they don't understand. one day, they're having their weekly gossip section in the common room (or whatever the hell it's call - it's just called a bloody living room here). the others in the class are watching a movie and aren't really paying attention to the two friends because like,,,plot (idk). aoyoma like the girl boss he is, pops up out of nowhere and joins the gossip. at first he's shocked that they know french, but after bakugou explains he's parents are designers, it makes sense. i like to think that aoyoma knows bakugou's parents designs bc like,,,hot girl shit, and so they talk and fanboy about that for a while. the movie ends and oh no, gotta stop gossiping in another language because god forbid the others know /sarc

shenanigan no #2; izuku sassing the teachers (specifically aizawa)

it's gotten to the point that the teachers have just given up trying to take this problem of a child, and have decided to just let fate (or in this case, deku) run it's course. izuku will *battle* these teachers to provide some sort of entertainment for himself. the rest of the class (aka pretty much just iida), is shook bc wtf how tf did he not die??? what the fuc- aizawa has a love hate relationship with this small gremlin child, because a) he is an agent of chaos (as is shouta), but b) he's fucking ANNOYING. but he'll never admit that.

that's all for now, because this took ten minutes of my life that i'll never get back but that's FINE. plus i have assessment work that i'm so behind on that i should probablyyyyy get started on.

uhhh yep adios i guess, i'll see you whenever i rise from the dead again.

okay rat i can feel u asking for it so 5 headcanons for your villain!deku au. go wild

thank u im so glad u asked i am a slut for my villain deku and villain bakugou (separate AUs) fics but anyway

1) it's DFO y'all should know I am a slut for DFO fics but anyway. Deku thinks he's quirkless for sure, except actually, HE WASN'T. DFO just jacked his quirk when he was little because the bastard wanted a mind reading quirk and welp, his son hit the lottery.

2) It's middle school, after the sludge event, and Izuku thinks there's something weird there, see for a second he thought he heard Katsuki ask for help. He shakes it off, because no way, that's impossible. It has to be, because he's quirkless and Katsuki couldn't even breathe let alone talk.

3) Izuku goes missing a week after the sludge villain. The time frame is weird here though cause they're like 13 instead of 15. And Izuku pops back up around 16-ish. So, he's been missing/kidnapped about 3 years. He joins Class 2-A as a transfer student. He fakes some kidnapped boy memories, and then says he just wants to be normal and go to school and be a hero so he can save people who were hurt like him. He marks his goal as an underground hero like Hagakure.

4) His first day of UA is wild, because no he is not a STRONG BOI(tm), but he is a sneaky boi. Still, no mental preparation on earth has Izuku prepared enough to deal with Katsuki. They bicker, and I don't mean D v K bicker, I mean it's just a casual back and forth that Katsuki finds he actually likes. He likes talking to this NEW NERD that came back from being kidnapped and that unsettles Katsuki.

5) Katsuki feels bad about a lot of their childhood. He's realized, and admitted to, the reasons he bullied Izuku. He came to the conclusion after about a year of Izuku being missing. He'd spent the past 3 years so WORRIED about Izuku, that when Izuku got back he didn't know the best way to handle RELIEF as an emotion. He starts to hover around Izuku, and if he disappears for too long he starts to wonder if he got kidnapped again. It takes a month or two to push through that.

Basically Izuku is the UA traitor but he falls in love with Class 2-A and welp they're just very endearing.

Bakugou Katsuki is not as bad as he seems.

Okay, fine. That's a lie. Bakugou is a loud and obnoxious asshole with little to no character development and will snap at anyone who breathes on him the wrong way.

Now that that's out of the way, let's move on to why he's like that.

You all know what PTSD is, yeah? If not, it stands for "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder". It's something that causes panic attacks, unnecessary aggression, trust issues, nightmares, anxiety, depression, and more. People will develop it after a traumatic experience. It takes years of therapy to recover... actually, most people never recover from it.

Fun fact: Katsuki canonically has PTSD. It's confirmed, and you know what? After everything he's been through, it's not much of a surprise. He's been through one tragedy after another and never seems to get a break.

When we first met Bakugou Mitsuki (Katsuki's mother) in chapter #96, we instantly realized how aggressive she was. I mean come on! She talked smack right in front of him and his teachers- in front of All Might who she knew her son was very fond of. Katsuki may be irritable, but to have your own mother backhand you in front of your own role model is a little much.

Later on in chapter #165 during the Provisual License Exams, we get a little more information that only points towards more abuse- and this time it's not so verbal.

Most people paid no real attention nor gave it a second thought in these panels, but remember when Katsuki suggested to use violence against the kids? Of course, you'd look at it and wave it off as "normal Bakugou behavior", but what he says next took me by surprise:

That's right. He was raised that way.

Which means either Mitsuki or Masaru (or both) had struck him in some way multiple times as he was growing up, and I doubt it was Masaru.

"Spoiled" my ass. He might have a strong quirk, but people don't turn into little monsters just by being praised. It'll definely boost his confidence, but not dramatically. This could also explain his aggression toward Midoriya. He realized how helpless he was and had power over someone else for once. But that's just a theory.

Okay, let's fast forward a bit. He's finishing up his third year of Middle School and is preparing for the UA entrance exams. He's pushed away his childhood friend to follow his own dreams and tells him to jump off the roof.

Literally.

And then he walks out the door only to regret it much, much, muuuch later in the series- y'know. The "character development" I was talking about.

Next time we see him though, he gets what he deserves.

One panel he's tramping through an alley with his friends, and the next, he's being swallowed alive by the most perverted-looking slime monster I've ever laid my eyes on.

While Izuku's dreams are being crushed by his own hero, Katsuki is fighting for his life in the middle of town. He's struggling, but all he could do was look back at all the dozens of fearful eyes...

Right there. Right now. Look at him:

He's terrified. He's humiliated and afraid and hurt and despite all of the heroes that were there, none of them had even attempted to save him.

And this is where it really starts. This is where it all begins. Next thing we know, Izuku's running straight for him... The boy Katsuki's bullied almost all of his life is risking his own in order to save him.

You know the story from there; All Might trains Izuku to withhold his power, they get accepted into UA, and then comes the Sports Festival.

Katsuki's already made up his mind: he's gonna win. He's willing to give everything he has to show the country what he's made of, and this may be his only chance to make up for the mishap several months ago. And Monoma, being a professional at making things worse by opening his mouth, rubs salt in the wound.

It was pretty easy to predict Katsuki's reaction: pissed off and more than ready to prove him wrong. He does, but it cost him his "first place" during the Calvary Battle. But that's okay 'cuz it's not over yet!

Welcome to the next and last stage of the festival: The Battle Tournament, where all the kids get to beat the shit out of each other until only one remains.

Turns out, Katsuki does win. It was a foolproof plan: get Todoroki to go all out on him so he can make a final impression before the end of the day. But it was obvious that Shouto was still unsure of himself, so Katsuki did what he did best:

He had to piss him off.

But instead of getting angry and bursting into flames like he had planned, Shouto threw away the battle at the last second, and everything Katsuki had worked for with it.

No shit he's gonna be upset! He worked his ass off to get where he was, and the whole point was to leave himself a footprint! His entire life had been dedicated to that moment, and it faded away right in front of him.

Midnight put him to sleep and he woke up and threw a temper tantrum.

Now this is was UA did wrong:

Why would you do that?! They were all aware of what happened to him only a few months ago, he obviously hasn't properly recovered from it, and they restrain him in front of thousands of people. They cover his mouth and gag him, lock his hands in a tiny metal box and expect him not to go insane. Helloooo?! Wake up! He's just a kid!

Several months go by and now it's time for camp. Katsuki is tired. They all are. It's been a long day of training and training and training, and suddenly villains come out of nowhere, and nobody is prepared. And who shows up? The League of Villains, and they're after certain students...

Tokoyami escapes safely, but Katsuki isn't so lucky.

Just think about that for a second. When we see Shigaraki holding a picture of him, it's the one where UA tied him up. He knows what this child has gone through and he pities him. To be honest, I think the LoV treated him much better than anyone ever has (except maybe Kirishima). They're hesitant, but they treat him with kindness. They didn't just want him for his quirk. They saw what the heroes did to him and wanted to help him get the revenge he deserved.

But when All Might showed up (more like "burst through the wall like the Cool Aid man"), Katsuki is instantly teleported in the strangest way possible... and the most traumatizing.

He chokes out this weird slime-like substance that devours him within seconds. Thankfully it only last that long, but then again, the Sludge Incident, remember?

Yeah, bet that brings back some memories.

But what must have hurt him the most was All Might's downfall and early retirement. He said it himself:

After several chapters, he finally burst. He's been holding all the pain inside of him until it bubbled over and he couldn't take it anymore. So he went to the only person he could- the person he hated and yet trusted the most.

Maybe the Class 1A concert helped him in a way. It seemed like it brought him down and maybe even relaxed him a little. And something incredible happens. Something we haven't seen from him at all until now...

(From here, I'll try to keep it short to avoid as many manga spoilers as I can. That and I'm tired...)

He began to change; started to support Izuku... in his own twisted way, of course. As chapters went by, he started to open up little by little. He admitted what he had done to Izuku in middle school to All Might, which had brought him some peace of mind. It wasn't quite the apology we had hoped for, but I guess it'll do.

And during the war, he made the greatest sacrifice, finally unlocking his quirk's full potential. Despite being unable to move, he used his quirk to throw himself in front of Izuku without thinking, taking a blow to his stomach. To his stomach.

He was impaled.

Holy shit.

Last time someone had been impaled was Nighteye, and he died from his wounds.

But Katsuki somehow managed to survive... And woke up ready to beat Izuku's ass if he didn't wake up.

Anyway, that's all I have to say (so far). However, I'm excited for Season 5 of the anime series! Can't wait to see our new story animated! I mean, I've been watching the episodes as they come out, but still.

Part two of three. Izuku has a new goal for this tournament, and Shouto’s getting a vibe check.

[No. 39 - Todoroki Shouto: Origin]

We start off with a brief flashback from a younger Shouto’s POV, ith Rei saying that that’s fine, he’s not…

Shouto’s narration wonders when he forgot what came after that. In the present, Shouto demands to know what Izuku is planning. Everything he’s got… did his bastard of a father pay him off or something? Shouto is pissed, and dashes forward, thinking that Izuku won’t be able to deal with him at close range. Izuku reacts by dashing forward as well, ducking low as he gets close.

In the stands, Katsuki has also notices Shouto’s slowed down, likely because of the frost covering his body. It’s different than Katsuki’s limits - kind of like magic points in a video game. The scale of that attack against Sero was probably the most he could muster.

Shouto panics just a bit, realizing Izuku had moved the instant he raised his left leg. Izuku himself is furiously muttering to himself about imagining the microwave, don’t let it explode, even as his powered-up right arm comes swinging, landing right in Shouto’s stomach.

Of course, Izuku isn’t entirely unscathed, Shouto managing to get some ice on Izuku’s left arm at the elbow before being flung away by the force of the punch. Present Mic makes a comment on things heating up, while both Izuku and Shouto take a moment to recover from the backlash of that punch. The crowds are shocked at Izuku landing a blow, but also note that he’s the one who can barely stand.

Shouto coughs, commenting on how now Izuku is on the offensive. He’s wondering how (I’m guessing on how Izuku finds the strength to keep going?), sending out another weak burst of ice that Izuku leaps over. Izuku comments on how Shouto’s not just slowing down, but his ice is weakening too.

Cementoss asks Midnight if he should stop the match. It seems like Izuku’s going all out because he knows he can be healed no matter what. And he’s not feeling all the pain he’s in because his adrenaline’s pumping. But those injuries… a single healing session won’t be enough for a full recovery. Even if he wins here, he’ll be in no shape for the next match. Midnight has no reply.

Aizawa thinks back to the quirk assessment, where he told Izuku to learn to control his quirk. In the present, he notes that that control is starting to come, even if it means weaker attacks. He’s not just blindly going wild out there. In order to win, this is the best strategy for him at this point. But… even if he does know he can be healed, putting himself through all that pain takes a hell of a lot of guts.

Toshinori, however, has caught on to what the others have not, wondering what it is that’s motivating his successor. Which is a small little thing that I find neat! Toshinori’s known this kid for just over a year at this point, while the rest of the staff have only known him a few weeks.

Izuku can’t make a fist with his right hand anymore. So when Shouto sends another up-close ice attack, he puts his thumb in his mouth and uses that to flick it, destroying the ice with a crack that is equally likely to be from the thumb as it is from the ice. During all that, Shouto (or Izuku?) thinks back to Izuku’s words, about wanting to be like All Might, and for that, he has to be number one, he has to be the strongest. It might seem like a lame motivation compared to Shouto’s, but.

Shouto asks Izuku why he’s going this far. Izuku dashes in, saying he’s just trying to meet expectations. A smiling, dependable, cool hero - that’s what he wants to be.

Shouto flashes back again for a brief instant, providing enough distraction that Izuku gets in another hit. Izuku states that that’s why he’s giving it everything! For everyone! Shouto’s experiences, his determination - Izuku can’t even begin to imagine what all that is like. But if he becomes number one without giving it his all, then Izuku doesn’t think he’s serious about denying Endeavor everything.

A longer flashback. Endeavor tells his son to get up. He won’t even be able to defeat third-rate villains, let alone All Might, if he gets knocked down by a hit like that. Rei begs Endeavor to stop, that Shouto’s only five years old. Shouto looks up from where he’s kneeling on the floor in his own vomit, just in time to see Endeavor slap Rei out of the way while stating that Shouto is already five, and to get out of his way.

Present Shouto tells Izuku to shut up, his right side absolutely coated in frost.

More flashback. Young Shouto is curled up in his mother’s lap, saying that he hates his father, he doesn’t want to be like him. Someone who bullies mommy - he doesn’t wanna be like that. She rests a hand on his head, noting that he wants to be a hero, right? That’s fine, he’s not…

In the present, Izuku takes another swing, thinking back to… someone’s words about if you have a future you’re striving for, while out loud declaring that that’s why he has to win. Which I guess clarifies the earlier reasons that everyone might think this is about winning the match. Toshinori, however, is cottoning on to what’s actually happening, thinking back to his talk with Endeavor, and how Shouto won’t use his left side because of his conflict with his father, which means Izuku is…

Izuku lands his hit while stating he has to surpass Shouto.

While the other Todoroki children play soccer under the supervision of an elderly lady, Shouto watches on from the window. Endeavor grabs him by the arm and yanks him away, telling him not to look, that his siblings belong to a different world than him.

Shouto stumbles across his mom talking on the phone to her own mother. She states that she knows it’s not right, but she can’t do it anymore. The children, they’re like him more and more everyday. And Shouto, his left side - sometimes she looks at him and hates what she sees. She can’t raise him anymore; she shouldn’t raise him. The kettle rattles as Shouto peeks into the kitchen, nervous and overwhelmed by what he’s hearing. Rei… does not react well.

Shouto, a bandage over his left eye, asks Endeavor where his mom is. Endeavor states that she hurt him, so he had her put away. He calls her a fool, during this crucial time in Shouto’s development, no less. Shouto weeps, furious and upset, stating that he’ll show Endeavor, that it’s all Endeavor’s fault.

In the present, he starts to talk about how he’ll show his father, only for Izuku to interrupt -

Not quite the same line as the anime! Which I was surprised by, to be honest. Like, I get why the line was changed up for that, and both have the same meaning, but there’s… something interesting in the original version of those words as well.

We flash back again, to an All Might interview Shouto is watching with his mother. All Might states that quirks are naturally passed from parent to child. However, that’s not the only thing that matters. It’s not just blood ties - instead, one must recognize and appreciate oneself! That’s what he means when he says it - when he says ‘I am here!’

(Not gonna lie, that bit of All Might interview actually has me thinking. That comment on blood ties makes me wonder whether he’s thinking about Nana, and that line about how one must recognize and appreciate oneself seems like a lesson both Toshinori and Izuku are needing to internalize in the current manga.)

Rei notes that Shouto wants to be a hero, right? That’s fine. Shouto isn’t bound by Endeavor’s blood. He can decide who he wants to become.

Shouto is practically in tears as he wonders when he forgot that. Flames lick at the corner of his eye and cheek, right before his entire left side goes ablaze with great force.

Everyone spectating is in shock. Tenya thinks on how Shouto had stated he’d never use his left side in battle, remarking on how he’s using it now. Toshinori realizes Izuku was trying to save Shouto. Endeavor is elated by this development.

As Izuku flinches back from the heat, Shouto comments on how he thought Izuku wanted to win. So why is he trying to inspire him? Which one of them isn’t taking this seriously now? But he wants to be a hero too. Shouto and Izuku grin at each other, and so this chapter ends.

Not gonna lie, I kind of vibe with this version of The Line. It’s still similar to the more popular anime version, but it’s also just different enough that I am. Thinking. Mayhaps it shall be used one day in a fic somewhere.

Anywho, character sheet incoming. Rest of the Izuku vs Shouto match on Friday. See y’all then.

So we have this two character

This abrasive woman

And this kind hearted guy

They were childhood friends since they were so little, they used to play together always, but something happened, in a society in which people can have amazing powers, she had a power suited for a strong hero, but him, he didn’t have anything. Her mind poisoned by extremely high expectations and compliments here and there, she fell into the delusion that she was perfect, amazing and that she could never be wrong, she was the strongest and was going to surpass her favorite hero one day because she is that awesome that nothing can’t stop her, not only that, but that she can’t hang out with weak people, that doesn’t go along with her, she only hangs out with people that can actually do something like her, so she starts to bully her once called best friend, because he isn’t as strong as her.

Later on, she not only discovers that, but her best friend has a problem with self sacrifice, how can someone give his life away so easily with the goal to save others? To lose yourself like that just to save one person, she was scared of how she could befriend someone like that and maybe lose him the next day, she couldn’t. One day when she was playing as usual with her friends, and his old best friend, since he never left her even if she was cruel to him. She fell down to a river, and she was absolutely fine, she was so strong she didn’t need any help, but he extended his hand to her, asking her if she was alright. She thought he was making a mockery of her, looking down on her, so since that day on she just became more evasive and cruel that she ever was.

Even in elementary school or Middle school, she even told him to dive off a roof. But then he suddenly demonstrated he did have a power, he showed everyone he could be strong. They both got into their dreamed High School, that school would make them both heroes, but who would be number one? The school humbled her a lot, she wasn’t the best, absolutely not close to being the best. Everyone was stronger, faster and more intelligent than her with stronger powers, she was hit with the hard truth, but she wasn’t going to let that bring her down. She also realized that the person she once thought of weak was indeed stronger than her in lots of aspects…

Meanwhile, he all these years had been by her side, because she was her best friend and he saw something in her that no one else saw, not even her. She was still there deep in, a kind person who knew how to work in a team, who cared for others, who could save too, she was just lost. Even if she was the biggest meanie to him, even if she told him to kill himself, he still didn’t doubt once she had absolutely changed for the worst, because if she still wanted to be a hero then she still was the person he once met.

Once they got attacked by villains in a school trip, everyone came out alive, but she got kidnapped. His biggest goal ever was to save everyone, so he should’ve thought it was good, right? Everyone is alive, they just lost one person and that person was still alive, right? No, he felt like everything was a complete lost, a utter disaster, because SHE got kidnapped, because he was a few inches from getting her back save, but he wasn’t enough. He didn’t gave up and with a group of friends they managed to save her, but he wasn’t the one to lend his hand because he thought he wasn’t worthy of it, she wouldn’t accept his hand, never.

Later on they fought, because she thought she was the reason their inspiration was defeated, because she thought she was weak, why was he picked as the successor of their favorite hero and not her? After years she finally opened up to him, and realized she had a lot of things wrong about him. Their relationship started to get less awkward and they could finally speak without screaming and punching each other. Then they got into an agency and listened to the story of their friend’s family, this hero everyone thought was so great in reality was an abuser, but there was something that caught her attention, he wanted to make up for what he did, he felt so sorry and wanted to fix it, to fix the suffering he made his family pass through. That reminded her of herself, she messed up too, she broke her friendship with his best friend and made him suffer, and even so he never gave up on her, he was so important to her she didn’t know how to express it, but she knew something, she wanted to atone to him.

She started to encourage him and help him get better with his power, she kept his secret and was his duo for the rest of their days. He really appreciated it, and they started to pick up the pieces to fix what they broke.

The big war came along and he was the target, everyone was told to stay put, but she couldn’t, she had to follow him and fight by his side and make sure he came out alive. It was difficult to keep up his rhythm, but she had to. The moment finally came when he was at the border of death, he was about to get impaled and he didn’t even realize, he was too angry and lost he wasn’t looking. She felt as if she was about to die just by seeing him at risk, so she went up there and risked her life to see him alive one more day.

The next three days she was already running through the hospital to see him, but she couldn’t. Wounded and still in treatment but she didn’t care, she needed to see him.

But before she could, he left, he was lost in himself and needed someone to take him out of it. She was worried all this time and she didn’t hesitate to go after him.

He was depressed, tired, stressed, he just wanted to give up, with no light in his eyes and with his limbs heavy he just kept on saving, saving, and saving, saving everyone but himself. When he was finally confronted with his weakness, people, innocent people, he finally felt like just stopping and leaving everything behind, but in that moment he saw her. Then it was clear that even if they didn’t realize, they both complemented each other, they were half of the same thing and had a connection. Seeing her made the whole world stop and his eyes shined again. Seeing him, made her breathe a sigh of relief that looked like she had been holding all this time, this time she would lend her hand to him, and he will accept hers.

This may sound to you like a lovely story about changing yourself for someone, right? Even romantic at some point, but no, this is the story of two characters in My Hero Academia, Izuku and Katsuki, but here we made them Female and Male, so now it feels “romantic” right? But when they are both males, the story is suddenly abusive, has not importance or is just brotherly. Please don’t let stuff silly as gender determine the importance of story.

BNHA: something sad (Resentment)

Summary: The last time Katsuki sees Izuku alive the other boy is rushing to save him. A ‘the Sludge Villain incident gone wrong’ aka Izuku dies.

Characters: Katsuki Bakugo

Fandom: My Hero Academia

WARNINGS! Major Character death, swearing, heavy angst, graphic descriptions of violence

Other parts in this AU: (Something Sad), (Anger), (Grief)

This is the direct sequel to (Implosion)

......

“Not many people get hit with a concussive blast of this strength and walk away will so few injuries.” Is what the paramedic that looks Katsuki over says, hand glowing a faint blue as he uses some sort of diagnostic quirk.

“It looks like you have a few cuts, bruising, strained muscles and sprained wrist from what I can see. I’d recommend getting a proper examination at the hospital but there’s nothing life-threatening here.” The medic continues.

The emergency doctor at the hospital confirms the diagnosis and shakes his head in disapproval, adding, “…bruising on your ribs and a fractured finger. No concussion, thankfully, but you’ll have a nasty bump on the back of your head. If your quirk didn’t make you naturally resistant to these sorts of shock-based blasts, you would be dead..”

…

After that, everyone is practically falling over each other to lecture him on how irresponsible and reckless he is.

His mum arrives and there is a lot of shouting which just pisses him off.

“HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO REACT WHEN I GET WOKEN UP AT ONE IN THE MORNING BY POLICE TELLING ME THAT MY IDIOT SON, WHO SHOULD BE ASLEEP, IS IN HOSPITAL!!”

“WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING!

Then there is the quiet disappointment he gets from his father when his mum is done yelling which only fuels his resentment.

“I don’t understand why you did it son. Did you want to get into that fight? Or was it a mistake? Please. We can’t help if we don’t know what’s going on.”

Eventually, he finally snaps, “I fucking felt like it! That’s why I did it! And you know what, I’d do it again.”

It wasn’t like he could or even wanted to explain that he’d jumped out his window to wander the streets at midnight because he had had a bad dream and his All Might poster had looked at him funny. That the rage and anger were preferable to that sinking empty feeling that had turned his every waking moment into a pointless repeat of everyday routines and useless interactions. That every time he let himself pause and reflect, Deku’s stupid smiling face was mocking him from the afterlife.

Next, he spends an hour with Senior Officer Watanabe recounting every possible detail from his stroll through the streets to his climactic fight with Lanky, Tiny and Grease-Hair.

“Well, you definitely don’t do things in half measures kid. So far we have private and public property damage, unlicensed quirk usage, quirk usage with the intent to harm, vigilantly activity, assault...”

“Assault! Why the hell is that on the list. Those bastards started it.”

“You can’t go around beating people up no matter how good your intentions are!”

“So, you wanted me to just watch!”

“Yes!” A long breath, “I know it can be hard but you need to wait for the pros. You got lucky this time but what if things had been different? You had misread the situation. What if you had been badly injured? What if you had accidentally injured the victim or killed someone? There is a reason we make people get a license for Hero work. Seison Masuyama is a B-rank villain.”

“B rank? He wasn’t that strong.”

“His quirk, Kinetic-Force, collects kinetic energy and releases it in one overpowered attack. It’s deadly to most people. You were lucky he had already used it once that day and that you were resilient enough to withstand it."

After multiple repeats of the ‘you’re lucky you’re not dead,’ with a side order of ‘it’s a good thing you’re still a minor because you could go to jail for this,’ he gets to go home.

It is three in the morning by the time he arrives back at the apartment, two exhausted parents in tow, having been issued an ‘official warning,’ an order to complete 100 hours of community service and instructions to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. He has never felt angrier or more resentful.

A days later and he is back at school, wasting his time watching clocks and avoiding classmates.

Nothing had changed.

…

The car screeches to a stop at the school gates, throwing Katsuki forward in his seat. His mum turns to fix him with a stern glare, eyes narrow.

“If you’re not waiting right here by the gate when I come to pick you up or so help me I’ll be escorting you to and from your classroom from the rest of your school life,” she threatens.

“Lay off you old bat,” Katsuki snaps as was becoming routine since his mum had started driving him the short distance to school, “I got it the first million times.”

“I’ll believe that when I see it.” A finger is pointed at his nose, waving in an almost menacing fashion. “Remember. Here. School Gates. 4:00pm. Don’t you dare think about ditching again.”

Katsuki sneers and kicks open the car door, turning to slams it shut with as much force as possible in retaliation. He stalks through the gates, shouldering his way through a group of loitering students. They all scatter when they recognise him. In some ways, he prefers dealing with the anger and yelling of his mum than his father’s quiet disappointment. That doesn’t stop it from being annoying as hell.

A spike of pain runs through his hand from where he must have used a little too much force on the door. Maybe he should take his father up on those kickboxing classes. Sure, he had practised punching after reading a bunch of online guides, but reading and solo practice were completely different when compared with real actual fighting. That was assuming he was going to be getting into more real fights. He opens and closes his bandaged fist, feeling a slight sting in his wrist and fingers. He glares. Four days on and he can still feel the echo of adrenalin. The thrill of righteous anger had been so much more satisfying than the directionless rage he was accustomed to. It had rekindled some of that fire that drove him to be the best, to win, chasing away the sickening emptiness which had been dogging his every waking step.

He wants to feel that again…He wants to do something other than listlessly go through the same daily motions as he drifts towards his now uncertain future.

“Hey Bakugō!”

He keeps walking, ignoring whatever loser classmates wanted to talk to him.

“HEY!”

A hand lands on his shoulder and Katsuki twitches, a hairs breath away from spinning and firing a blast point-blank into the pest’s face. Instead, he stops and deliberately turns to glower at the pathetic piece of trash behind him. Murata Taheiji from his homeroom is standing there, one hand on his hip, flanked by two other boys he doesn’t know the names of. Two more appear to stand in front of him, blocking his way. They are all puffed up like they think they’re hot shit. Katsuki scoffs. Are these failures really trying to bully him? HIM!?

“How about you get the fuck out of my way and go find a first year to pick on. You know, someone more on your level.”

That gets him an irritated scowl that transforms into a patronising grin, “You were always such a stuck up prick Bakago…Acting so high and mighty all the time. Not anymore, I know the truth. You’re just like the rest of us.”

“Huh?” he drawls, dragging out the sound, turning so he is facing the boy, “What the fuck are you on about.”

“My dad works for Musutafu police dispatch and he told me something real interesting yesterday.” A dramatic pause, “He said that you got arrested a few nights ago.” There is a laugh that is echoed by the four surrounding him. By now the confrontation has garnered the attention of several onlookers, who are slowly drifting closer.

“All that shit about being a Hero and you got arrested. What’d you do? Steal some candy from a convenience store? We all know you don’t have money.”

Around them, the growing audience is eyeing him with varying levels of eager anticipation like they think he’ll break down and start crying because of some dumb-ass insults. Damn, if that doesn’t just piss him off. How dare these losers think him that weak.

“Don’t compare me to your loser selves,” he dismisses aggressively, making to turn and forcefully elbow his way past. He is stopped by Murata’s hand which is still on this shoulder.

“You know what I think. I think you’re all talk.”

Katsuki stills, letting the words sink and curdle in his stomach. In one short move, he turns and steps in close to Murata so they are almost nose to nose.

“Don’t fucking touch me,” he warns. The other boy tenses, looking like he wants to say something else equally stupid. If he remembers correctly Murata has some sort of muscle-enhancer, reflex quirk. One of the only worthwhile quirks in the school.

Katsuki jerks his elbow up and around in a quick jab. It smacks into the loser’s face. Crack. Guess having fast reflexes didn’t make a difference when you never saw the blow coming.

There is a cry of surprised pain and shouts of alarm from the peanut gallery. The other boy falls back, tripping over his own feet. It is ridiculously simple to lift a leg and deliver a kick to the stomach, not even a strong kick, so his failed bully thuds onto the ground, tossing up a small puff of sand. Unlike the fight in the ally, there is no rush of excitement, no spike of anger or adrenaline. No exhilaration. He is just irritated and maybe a bit disappointed. That’s what he gets for expecting anything out of the pathetic losers that went Aldera Middle School. They were more annoying than anything else.

Murata rolls around in the dirt, wheezing, trying to draw breath. He can almost imagine Deku running up to complain about his violent tendencies or sprout some shit about Hero’s needing to protect people like Murata didn’t ask for it when he decided to try his luck bullying someone obviously stronger than him.

The reminder of Deku sours his already shitty mood.

“Ah…you broke my nose. YOU BOKE IT…ah…it hurts. Do something!” The idiot calls to his equally idiotic friends as he tries to stop blood from pouring down his face.

Katsuki gazes coolly at the boy before directing his attention at the four other ‘bullies’ standing frozen around him.

“You extras got something else to add to that?” With Murata out of the game, the rest of the pathetic group shuffles about uncertainly.

“Ah…we’re good,” The tallest one says nervously, “Sorry about that Bakugō. No hard feelings right?”

He scoffs.

One of the boys moves forward to pull Murata upright, kneeling and pulling out a tissue to help stem the flow of blood. “Crap. I…I think Murata needs to go to the nurse. This looks serious.” There are a few more apprehensive glances in his direction like the other boys think he’ll insist on continuing the ‘fight’-ha! like this has been anything near a fight- until they are all bloody messes on the ground. Kaksuki rolls his eyes. As if he has the patience to deal with any more of these losers.

“Cowards,” he mutters, shoving past. The crowd of students who had gathered to watch the failed confrontation, scramble to get out of his way. A strong breeze rushes through the school’s courtyard, drawing attention to how quiet it has suddenly gotten. Barely audible whispers follow in his wake and he can feel many sets of eyes on his back, watching.

“He always did have a bad attitude.” They murmur.

“Guess he’s a real delinquent now.”

“…did you hear what Murata said. Do you think Bakugō actually got arrested?”

“That’s got to be fake right? Murata is full of hot air.”

“No way. I believe it. You don’t have to share a class with him, I’m telling you, Bakugō’s gone nuts.”

“Kind of scary when you think about it. With a quirk like that...”

He doesn’t know why they’re all so shocked. This isn’t the first fight he has gotten into on school grounds. Okay, so maybe he’d held off doing any real harm before now, well aware that U.A. would probably check his school record. It had never mattered to him because there was no point in beating up weaklings when he was obviously superior. Except for Deku…the only person he had ever really hurt, the only person he could get away with hurting without repercussions. And now he feels like extra shit. God, what a huge farce it had all been. Kaksuki clenches his fist and growls, wondering if it isn’t too late to ditch and go find somewhere secluded to blow off steam. Anything to escape this feeling of frustration.

He doesn’t have time to make a proper decision because news of his ‘fight’ had obviously spread to the staffroom. One of the second year homeroom teachers comes barrelling out of the school’s front entrance, eyes immediately landing on him.

“What happened!” Their eyes move past him to the bloody Murata, “Go wait in the principles office. Now.”

Well, he didn’t want to deal with his annoying classmates anyway. He stalks away, the sounds of the teacher fussing over Murata growing fainter behind him. When he arrives, the principal’s office is empty and he flings himself down into one of the comfy couches, irritated. The bell for homeroom goes off and Kaksuki remains sprawled across the couch, arm across his face to block out the light and his view of the clock slowly ticking away.

Just as he begins to contemplate leaving, Principle Fukuhara comes strolling into the room.

“ Bakugō,” the man lets out an exasperated sigh, “Sit up please.”

Katsuki moves his arm to peek out and glare at the man, deliberately ignoring the instruction.

“I just finished talking to Ms Yuki and the school’s nurse. You broke Murata Taheiji’s nose. I hope you realise how serious this situation is and that there will be major consequences. Aldera Middle School does not tolerate this sort of violence on its grounds.”

Silence. That was a fucking lie. Slowly, Katsuki pulls himself upright, meeting the man’s hard stare with his own.

“Well, do you have anything to say for yourself and your disgraceful behaviour..”

Katsuki narrows his eyes, “The idiot was asking for it.”

Obviously, it's the wrong response going by how the skin tightens around the man’s eyes, “I see...I’m sorry you feel that way. Up until now, our school has been more than lenient. We have overlooked your shameful behaviour these last few weeks because we wanted to give you time to settle after going through such as tragic incident. However, I am afraid that this time you have gone too far. Your parents will be notified. You’ll see the school councillor. You will be staying back for after school detention. Since this is your first major incident we…”

“First?” He cuts the man off. He is sick of hearing the moron’s voice. “Hahaha and people say you don’t have a sense of humour.” He laughs an unpleasant laugh which increases in volume until he is almost shouting.

“What sort of shit hole are you running? Three years I’ve been beating up the dumb idiots that come here and now you decide to care. Why is that huh? Is it because I’m no longer going to put this shitty place on the map and become a famous hero! HA!”

He lets his voice quieten, sneering “I’ll never be a hero so you’re shit out of luck.” Finally saying it out loud is like throwing a bucket of water over the embers of an already struggling fire. It hurts deep in his chest. The expression of shocked disbelief is almost worth it.

“Thanks for proving what a worthless profession it is,” he finishes with another hash laugh, rage simmering under his skin. When he tries to stand and leave a hand lands on his shoulder, pushing him back down.

The principal, who still looks somewhat stunned at his sudden outburst, orders, “Sit back down Bakugō! I am far from finished.”

Why do people always feel the need to grab him. He is so fucking sick of everyone pulling and tugging on him, trying to control him and hold him down. Katsuki turns slowly, that simmering rage pulsing, running down his limbs. Pop pop pop go his hands. He feels as explosive fire gathering in behind his eyes and in his shadowy stare. It is not the dramatic, adrenaline-induced anger he had felt when preparing for the ally fight. No, this is a dark burning rage, fuelled by his growing resentment.

“Touch me again,” he growls, low and intimidating, “and I’ll kill you.”

The principal snatches his hand back like he has just been burnt. A poignant silence follows in the wake of his threat.

“Suspension,” the man says, swallowing, “You’re suspended. I’m calling your parents right now.” And is it just him or does he look genuinely worried? There is even a hint of fear in his wrinkled face. Katsuki takes vindictive joy in the achievement. Finally…finally the worthless morons are seeing him, truly seeing him and not whatever Bakugō -delusion they’d all cooked up in their heads.

Big 3 vs Wonder Duo (Which one will end happening in My Hero Academia)

Okay this topic has been on my mind for awhile now i mean their is evidence for both the wonder duo and the big 3 (especially from the vibe that I’ve been getting from the war arc) So i’ll try to break down evidence for both sides and come to my final conclusion on what might actually happen at the end of the meta analysis

Big 3:

Alright lets start with the Origin trio. This trio first became a official hero combination from the Endeavor Agency arc. Within that arc we as readers were able to learn more about Shouto as a person and his family dynamic. Now you could say that Deku and Bakugou being their was due to the fact that they are the protagonist and deurotagonist (which are valid points since it would make sense for them to be present in the Todoroki family conflict since one Izuku has helped Shouto a lot since the Sports Festival and on Bakugou’s end he got to bond with him during their remedial license exams)

The Endeavor Agency arc is the first time that we got a hint towards a possible three way combination in terms of skills. Izuku and Katsuki learned more about Shouto’s home life and we even got Fuyumi thanking Izuku for being his friend (which was important in terms of a successful hero trio working in the near future) having all of the members in it have something that binds them emotionally will ensure the strength in their bonds.

Let me break down 2 dynamics within the Origin trio (Im saving Bakugou and Midoriya’s part of it for the Wonder Duo section):

Todoroki Shouto and Midoriya Izuku:

Izuku telling Shouto that his power isn’t his fathers but his own helped Shouto embrace himself. This big moment helped fans understand Izuku as a character and that he didn’t care about winning but being able to help Shouto accept himself for who he is.

When Todoroki and Bakugou fought at the Sports Festival Izuku was showcased to be cheering Shouto (who at that moment was hesitant to use his full power) this ignited his flames to come full force which was big for Shouto’s character

During the Stain arc Izuku sent out a signal to his location (which Shouto saw) and we see him worried for his friend and he makes his way to Iida and Izuku

During the aftermath of the stain arc Shouto showcases his worries and protectiveness of Izuku and Iida.

In the Forest Training arc Izuku was having trouble connecting with Kota and Shouto was able to give him advice by stating “ "Even he's told all the right things, if you don't know his background then you'll only succeed in annoying him" and continues with "The important thing is, what the person who's saying it has done...and what they're doing now. I think that words are always accompanied with deeds.",

Shouto’s advice to Izuku showcases how much Izuku trust his advice and judgement (again a big change from where they were from the Sports festival)

When Izuku fought Muscular Shouto’s words came back as a form of encouragement which helped him defeat the villian and become close with Kota.

"Even heroes cry sometimes." which was a quote Shouto said as a mean to help comfort Izuku who struggled when learning about all the horrible things that have happened to Eri. That scene showed how perceptive Shouto was in the feelings of others and also showed his method of trying to help someone.

When Shouto fought against Tetsutestsu in the Joint Training arc the symbolic moment that started the beginning of their bond which was the reminder of Shouto’s quirk being his own helped him with his fight

We also have their friendship being stronger when Izuku talks to Shouto about his path to forgiving his father and saying that he is kind (Endeavor Agency arc)

Izuku saves Shouto from Dabi by using black whip and states that Shouto is his “precious friend.” which that signified how powerful their bond is

I wont mention all the moments that they share as I am saving more on the shipping aspect for another blog post but my point on these two supporting each other endlessly still stands. Izuku has helped encourage Shouto when using his quirk and in return Shouto has given Izuku such helpful advice when stuck between a crossroad. From canon alone Horikoshi showcases their unconditional support for each other.

Todoroki Shouto and Bakugou Katsuki:

From what canon has given us in terms of the introduction of their bond Katsuki has viewed Shouto as another rival of his while Shouto isn’t scared of Katsuki and his temperament at all.

Shouto and Katsuki are usually shown to bicker and banter with each other which is usually fun to see when observing their dynamic

Katsuki overheard Shouto and Izuku’s conversation after the calvary battle (which in a way foreshadowed his bond with Shouto getting stronger since it was able to connect him to the other two)

The Forest of training arc was the first arc that showed how natural Katsuki and Shouto were with one another (as compared to the Sports Festival)

Their friendly bantering continues when they both have to retake the license exam again. The running joke of Todoroki insisting that they are friends and Bakugou denying this is always a joy to see.

Bakugou was one of the first people (alongside Deku) to understand Shouto as a person when they were interning with Endeavor

Bakugou and Todoroki in canon both notice each others strengthens and made multiple comments on this. One example of this is when Todoroki used one of his well known attacks from the Sports Festival against his fight with Deku and Bakugou states this while bantering with Todoroki which he quickly responds with “I weakened the blow by a bit. Are you hurt?”

During their retake to get their hero license Bakugou opens up to Todoroki about how he was raised and that violence is needed against their challenge with the children which Todoroki comments that there is a better way that they can get through to the children.

Just from canon context alone these two have such a playful yet rival like bond and even to the current point of the manga we never really see these two break out of their usual bickering and bantering. I wont elaborate much on this since I plan to do a post more in depth about all the personal relationships. In canon we don’t really see a lot for them being explored but the potential for them to bond more is their and I have no doubts that Horikoshi will do this justice (especially if the big 3 route is endgame)

The timeline of where the third MHA movie will take place can play a factor to this as well. If the movie takes place during the Endeavor Agency arc then it wouldn’t really leave much room for fans to interpret Shouto’s role after he finds out about OFA. However, if the movie takes place post war arc “All for One and One for All.” which was the movie teaser’s highlight it could solidify the importance that Shouto will have once he finds out what Katsuki already knew about Deku.

Big 3 Evidence:

Deku, Katsuki, and Shouto were all shown to admire All Might when they were younger.

Ever since the concept of the big 3 was introduced (Mirio, Tamaki, and Nejire’s debut) it gave fans the idea that a future big 3 will come into play. It was just a matter of who would be apart of it

War arc hints that Shouto will be let in on the OFA secret (which was something that binded just Deku and Katsuki before) with this knowledge it will connect the three of them

With quirks alone all 3 of them are compatible and would be an ultimate tag team

Endeavor Agency arc once more hints of the potential trio with Katsuki and Izuku fighting alongside Shouto in order to save Natsuo from Ending. The first time we got to see these three join forces and showcase everything that they’ve got

Small parallels between them and the current big 3 (Mirio and Bakugou) (Deku and Amajiki) and (Shouto and Nejire) I might make a post on the comparisons soon if you guys are interested.

Trios have been shown in the My Hero Academia universe (examples: rooftop trio which consist of Aizawa, Shirakumo, and Present Mic) which considering that the three of them wanted to open up their own agency as pros but sadly could not it wouldn’t be surprising that the Origin trio ends up doing so instead.

Endeavor hints on this possible trio by saying that the three of them need to have the three fundamentals which are rescue, evacuation, and battle. Izuku (Rescue), Shouto (evacuation), and Katsuki (battle),

Wonder Duo:

Shifting perspectives let’s discuss some evidence of Horikoshi ending the series with the Wonder Duo. Now with this hero combination it was stated at face value during Deku vs Kacchan 2 ( chapter 120) by All Might who says “If the two of you can recognize each other and honestly raise each other up, you can become the best heroes who both win and rescue.” This was the first indication that not only could they become a hero duo but also that these two would rekindle their broken bond by the conclusion of the series.

Bakugou Katsuki and Midoriya Izuku:

From what we know prior to the beginning of the series Izuku and Katsuki knew each other since childhood and that their relationship started off rocky (since they were set up to become rivals)

To show the closeness of Izuku’s connection to Katsuki he calls him “Kacchan” while even tho Katsuki’s originally meaning of the word “Deku” meant worthless Izuku took that name and made it his hero name.

For seasons 1-3 (before Deku vs Kacchan 2) Katsuki believed that Izuku had always looked down on him hence him pushing him away which he yet again confirms in the war arc that because of his weakness he ended up bullying Deku because of it

When Bakugou got kidnapped from the villains he states “stay back Deku.” and as a result we have Deku screaming out in agony when the villains took Bakugou away during the training camp arc

Following his kidnapping scene Deku cries at the hospital about not being able to save Katsuki (despite during that time of their development Katsuki wanted to push Izuku away)

When Deku vs Kacchan 2 occurred fans got to see Katsuki become vulnerable for the first time talking about why had it been him that ended All Might’s career. This following with Deku stating that he is “the only one who can accept Kacchan’s feelings.”

"to the same extent of all your unpleasant traits, your sheer amazingness at everything you do was so brilliant to me, it was blinding!" (quote from Izuku during the fight) followed by "You, who had so many things that I never had... to me, you were an amazing, inspiring person, who was even closer to me than All Might!"

Deku vs Kacchan 2 was the pivotal fight that changed the entire course of their dynamic since it was the first time that fans got to see the two of them unleash all their emotions that they had been keeping in for years

In Heroes Rising Deku shares OFA with Bakugou and commenting that "It's okay if it's you," when talking about having his childhood friend hold that power and also showcases Izuku’s trust in him.

During the Meta Liberation War arc when Izuku tries to find Shigaraki and try putting a end to all of this Katsuki notices this and follows him commenting “because being a hero means protecting everyone." foreshadowing the save mentality that Katsuki has when he put his life on the line to protect Deku from Shigaraki’s attack

Link to a perspective that tackles the possibility of Bakugou and Midoriya being a hero duo in the future.

https://sacred-stoner.tumblr.com/post/174064238438/the-other-day-an-anon-sent-me-this-ask-thank-you

Wonder Duo Evidence:

During the provisional license arc Aizawa talks to Mrs. Joke about how Bakugou and Midoriya encourage and inspire the rest of the class (with a screenshot of the two of them while he says this)

During the Final Exams arc Midoriya and Bakugou were partnered together to take down All Might and that fight showcased the miscommunication the two of them had (despite them winning against him in the end) the fore shadowing of these two working together could be hinted as far back as the final exams arc if thinking about how shounen writing sets up rivals.

All Might’s quote about the two of them being the types of heroes to “win and save” made a return as we are shown during the war arc of Deku trying to achieve victory while Bakugou gained a quirk awakening because of his desire to save Deku. In other words having them switch perspectives in the current point of the story really does come a long way

Horikoshi mentions that Heroes Rising was meant to be the original ending for the series which could mean that a) the scenario of Bakugou and Midoriya working together in the series finale would stay and that the main difference is that they would be pros or B) the duo would be changed to a trio and that Shouto’s involvement might be intertwined with Izuku and Katsuki... still unsure on which route)

When All Might vs All for One happened we had a screenshot of the two of them calling out for All Might to win. Showing not only their significance to All Might but also foreshadowing them working together in the future

Throughout the series Horikoshi highlights their bond as one of the focal points in the series by not only setting them up as proper rivals but also being able to repair their broken bond (which in turn all goes back to All Might hinting at them becoming a hero duo)

We’ve seen some duo combinations as well as trio ones in the series example being Hawks and Endeavor during the pro hero arc (it was temporarily but the point still stands that as fans we were able to see how successful a duo could be in the series)

Foreshadowing can come a long way since the series has started with Midoriya and Bakguou through middle school it very well could end with them finally fixing their broken bond and become the heroes that will win and rescue.

Sorry this took so long everyone I was just gathering my thoughts on this interesting discussion. I can see Horikoshi going with either route but as of right now its possible that we could get the big 3 while Deku and co are still teenagers and then have the wonder duo happen when they become pros (which if this were to happen then there would need to be some explanation on what happened to Shouto during all this)

Im unsure of whether the big 3 would happen when they are pros or only for the time that they are still teenagers.

I could also see Shouto being in charge of his father’s agency and allowing people with all types of quirks to intern there (especially if Endeavor ends up passing away before the conclusion of the series) which might be the likely explanation we will get if the wonder duo route is still something Horikoshi stands by.

Final thoughts: As of everything we have so far I will go ahead and say that we will actually have both with the big 3 being officially confirmed as the Origin trio while they are still teenagers but the wonder duo happens when they become pros. This topic was such a fun and interesting one to dive into so regarding personal bonds i’ll do another post.

This post is meant to view them as hero combination not shipping wise so with that said I hope this post was worth the wait.

Note

I am in LOVE with your headcanons about the boys being omegas! Can you make some for Bakugou (poetic irony but also because he IS the mom friend), Shigaraki, Mirio and Kirishima?

NOTE: Spoilers, toxic behavior, and a lot of underrated omegas

A/N Of Course! I apologize if there are any errors since I wrote most of these at night, and shiggys turned into a pile of headcanons instead of a more story based one. It did inspire me to start a little something else though, so watch out for that in the future!

Katsuki Bakugo

Bakugo has a very pungent burned sugar smell due to his quirk, but his natural scent is more like cinnamon candy if you are able to convince him to let you take a sniff (good luck with that.)

Was told all of his life that nobody wants an aggressive Omega and that an Omega could never be the number one hero. Hearing that all of the time made him so irritated that he started taking scent blockers and suppressants so he can pass as an alpha, blaming the sweet scent on his nitroglycerin. Many didn’t think twice about it since it did make sense.

He still has his superiority complex, but he also knows that he lives up to the praise he had gotten all of his life. He worked hard and taught himself how to use his quirk as a child thanks to his dad really. Even though his mom kept his ass in check and made sure he was never lazy, it was his dad who sat down and taught him how to make and control his explosions.

His favorite memory is how his father would wear rubber cleaning gloves so he would sweat more in order to show Katsuki his acid sweat explosions. Katsuki laughing fondly before trying to mimic Masaru, only to end up flying back on his ass in a fit of giggles. It ended with both Son and Father getting scolded due to yet another noise complaint.

When he presented as an omega, he was initially destroyed because omegas had a stigma for being weak. He was NOT weak by any means and having people treat him different for being an omega male pissed him off. Middle school was especially tough after Izuku had loudly blurted support to Bakugo while revealing him to be an omega which only resulted in others treating him differently and some even bullying him about his dream to be a pro-hero. This only made him spite Izuku more, and since Deku had pointed out his one, massive flaw, he would do the same. He started bullying Izuku for being quirkless to get the attention away from him being an omega since being quirkless was much more uncommon than being an omega.

When the sludge monster attacked, his omega chirped loudly in distress and of course, fucking Deku had to come and save him. He never thanked the Beta, but instead yelled at him to remind him that he isn’t useless. He isn’t some weak ass Omega who can’t protect themselves. He was borderline in tears as he yelled at Izuku before storming off back to his house. Despite his parents attempting to comfort him, he just ended up nesting in his bedroom before sobbing himself to sleep. He had been a weak omega who couldn’t protect himself.

When he got into UA, he considered it a fresh start. Having been on suppressants and scent blockers for a long time now, this was his chance to shine for his power and not his role in society. When he found out Izuku was going as well, part of him felt pure rage and the other was disappointment. This was his chance to start completely over, but here was fucking Deku, a constant threat to his secret of being an omega.

He was originally shocked by the diversity of his class, not that he openly showed his shock. Omegas, betas, alphas, they were all there. Yeah, the omegas didn’t quite seem as adept for close range fighting, but they were still in the heroes course. It made him happy that there were so many in his class, even if his aggressive way of introducing himself was met with a lukewarm reaction. He did manage to find himself a nice group of friends that made him feel even safer. Sero, Mina, and Denki were Betas, and he felt completely comfortable around them. He didn’t feel threatened by them or belittled. You and Kirishima though, he was intimidated which only resulted in him being even more aggressive, yet neither alpha seemed to mind and often fought back playfully.

He naturally found himself growing closest to the two alphas and also found himself yelling into a pillow late at night at the thought of one of you being a potential mate. He honestly could see himself in a happy relationship with either person, yet he knew he shouldn’t focus on that. Even if his omega was whining for the approval of one of the Alphas, his desire to be a hero would come first. This didn’t stop him from sharing clothes with Kirishima, maybe even stealing some for his nest, and letting you wear his jacket any chance he got. If it meant that one of his alphas could scent the item, then he sure as hell was going to do it. No one ever mentioned it though until everybody got together for a movie night and Mina had taken a picture of Bakugo curled up between the two alphas. That’s when people started to tease which only made Bakugo feel insecure despite the Alphas scolding the others for not asking to take the picture, yet you both had the photo as your home screen of your phones.

After Bakugo had been captured, he found himself feeling lost as he once again had been a useless omega. Due to him missing his suppressants and scent blockers for a few days, his scent had started to shine through and he felt himself holding back his whimpering omega as all he wanted to do was chirp for help. The villains took notice and were shocked that the explosive man was an omega. Once Shigaraki had him released from his bonds, the man had made a nasty comment about him which resulted in Bakugo attempting to blow his face up. He was shocked to see that the man, who revealed himself to be a beta, was hardly phased by his attack before promptly reminding him that his offer still stood. The leagues’ arms were open for him, yet he continued to deny it. He was getting ready to fight once again when All Might broke in causing him to finally let out the loud chirps of distress he had been holding in.

After he was rescued and witnessed Allmights’ retirement, he promptly locked himself in his room. His parents could hear the distressed chirps coming from his room, yet were met with aggression the second they tried to help. Yet, when there was a knock on his bedroom door, he was shocked to see you peak inside.

He let you into his room, but you noticed how messy it all seemed. Katsuki was always a very clean person so this worried you, but that wasn’t your main concern as the blonds spiked hair seemed messier than usual, his red eyes were puffy from crying, and he seemed like he hadn’t been sleeping. You opened your arms as an offer but the other just scoffed and rolled his eyes, clearly trying to keep the alpha act he had before, but you were able to see past it and moved to hug him softly. He didn’t stop his omega from chirping out and slowly wrapped his arms around you, pulling you close as he fought off tears, only letting his omega chirp out more.

He did eventually break down in your arms, venting to you about him being weak, about AllMights retirement and about how he had been captured by the league. You had scented the other in hopes it would calm him down, but you just let him cry. He did calm down, sobs turning to chirps and whimpers after a while. He pulled away, yet could only lean back as you continued to hold him by his waist as he wiped his tears.

You instantly asked where his nest was, and he pointed in the corner of his room that was hidden behind his bed. You nodded and pulled him close to softly kiss his forehead before ushering him to the nest to lay down. He didn’t fight it and moved to collapse in the nest before hearing you leave the room. A few loud chirps came from his omega since he desired the Alphas company to keep him calm, but was caught off guard when he saw you walk back in holding a plastic bag and a tray. He huffed and moved over a bit so you could join him, but he noticed how you had taken off your shoes since the first time you had came in. You were careful walking into the nest which made his omega purr at the sight, and once you were in you sat the tray on his lap holding the bowl of spicy ramen.

“I remembered that you liked spicy food, so I decided to ask my mom how to make spicy ramen. I quickly figured out to not touch your face while making it.” The omega couldn’t help but grin since you remembered his favorite and actually made it for him. He moved to sip the broth before feeling himself purr louder thanks to the taste. He didn’t think twice before he began eating the ramen. It was moments later when he was finished when he turned his attention towards you, noticing how you searched through the bag.

You then pulled out a plush bear that looked obviously homemade. He didn’t realize it, but he had sat a little straighter due to his curiosity before you spoke. “Here. I made this too since I thought you’d sleep better with something that smells like me. I might have noticed how you sleep better when you’re snuggled against me during our movie nights.” He carefully took the bear and smiled, hugging it softly as you pulled out a hoodie he had let you borrow as well as one of Kirishimas’ shirts. He couldn’t help but feel cared for, and it didn’t feel like you were belittling him.

That’s when it hit him. “How did you know I was an Omega?” He asked only to notice you chuckle and rub the back of your neck. “I didn’t. All I knew was that this was stuff that I thought would comfort you. Your dynamic really didn’t matter much to me Katsu. When I grabbed this, All I could think of was the fact that you were most likely struggling, You weren’t going to show weakness, and I wanted to help you in any way I could. You being an Omega had nothing to do with it.” He felt himself blush before he sighed softly. That’s when you spoke again. “I uh...was planning on courting you either way. Alpha, beta, or Omega. It doesn’t matter since I was honestly more interested in you.”

He felt his cheeks heating up before he looked down, taking in the fact that you went out of your way to make him a bear, scent his hoodie, make his favorite food, and even stole one of Kirishimas’ shirts just for him. You took his silence as rejection and just sighed. “I know you aren’t looking, really, but I just wanted to let you know I admire you so much and you inspire me to strive to be better. A better student, a better friend, and a better hero. No matter what, Katsuki, You make me want to be better. So I decided why not and start off by making sure you were okay?”

That was the last hit his Omega needed to accept the courting. His omega had claimed you, even if he were to disagree. Yet he didn’t disagree. He ended up moving closer to you and kissing your cheek softly. When you burst into a deep red blush, he just chuckled a bit. “Thanks...I really appreciate that.”

You both ended up snuggling in his nest until his dad knocked on the door to tell his son that his teachers were there and they needed to talk to him. You had decided that it was most likely a good time for you to leave, but you felt Bakugo squeeze your hand before he told his dad he would be out in a moment. After his dad left, he moved to kiss your cheek once again before asking you about courting.

“You’d have to be patient with me, because I will become the number one hero. Nothing is going to stop me, so if you want to be with me, you do know that you’d have to be patient right?” “Of course, Bakugo. I want to watch you become the number one, so if our relationship isn’t traditional, then I don’t mind.” He smiled at your words before feeling himself getting pulled into a hug. He groaned and tried to push you away even if he didn’t want you to let go. You luckily knew him well and just fought back until he stopped resisting.

“If you think that you can deal with me, then I don’t see why I couldn’t go on a couple of dates with you…” He mumbled into your shoulder as his arms wrapped around you slowly. He wasn’t surprised to hear you agree, but you kissing his cheek back forced his cheeks to burn like yours had. He threw some swears at you and flicked your head before huffing while kicking you out of his room. You only chuckled as you left, bowing to your teachers, thanking the Bakugos’ and quickly leaving their house. His parents could smell you on him, and of course he was back to his argumentative self, but they were just happy he was feeling better.

Tomura Shigaraki

(More headcanon styled cause DAMN I love toxic, Omega, Shiggy. Let’s be real though, he wouldn’t be as lovable as people believe. Keep an eye out for more about him though)

Let’s just get one thing straight, never walk into his bedroom. If he were to ever get an Alpha, they would rather go crazy with the empty cans of soda, sticky floors, stained sheets, and random snacks that have been abandoned long ago. He is a messy ass omega that breaks a ton of stereotypes.

His scent is also just a bit...off. It isn’t sweet like the majority of Omegas, but can be described as the scent of an abandoned bakery? It really depends on his mood. If he is in a more content mood, he just smells like bread that had been left on the counter instead of properly put away. If he is in a bad mood, it smells like molded sweets. If he is happy, it smells like fresh baked goods. He is kind of insecure about his scent honestly, but then again he doesn’t have the time to look for a mate anyway.

The most likely to become almost Yandere-like over somebody he deems is his. Like seriously, if you walk into the hideout and catch the omegas’ attention, be prepared. He will try to act like he isn’t interested, yet hangs onto every word you say. If he sees you flirting with somebody, even Toga or Dabi, you better be ready to feel the man grab your arm and pull you away. He will threaten you by pressing his hand to your neck while whispering in your ear about how he wants you to play nice, but not too nice since he should be the only one who should be able to flirt with you.

Also would force you to mate with him if you’re unwilling. He will drag you into his room after a stressful, unsuccessful mission before shoving you down on his messy nest while threatening to use his quirk on you unless you mark him and make him yours. For him, it’s a way to control you as well as a way to comfort himself.

Pups? Oh you’re funny. That man is on suppressants and he refuses to help with your ruts. The most he will do is toss a shirt of his at you before telling you to fix it yourself. If he does go through a heat due to lack of suppressants, forgetfulness, or when he feels you trying to get distant with him, all of your attention better be on him. This is also maybe when he is the most vulnerable with you since he will be a whining mess.

At times it can feel as if he is only using you, and he is, but he also sees you as his toy. Something similar to what a child would use to comfort them when they are stressed or afraid, something to play with when he is bored, and something that is his. He will manipulate you, use you, scare you and love you in his own sick way.

If you ever try to fight him??? My god. This omega can take a hit. Need I remind you that he took one of Bakugos’ blasts to the face and he hardly reacted to it? He fought All Might and wasn’t injured, and he even managed to take out Aizawas’ elbow. You may be an alpha, but fighting him is suicide. Luckily, he adores you so he might just spare his favorite pawn.

Mirio Togata

Mirio had always been an omega that broke boundaries. Ever since he was a child, he had exceeded expectations and had caught the attention of a wide variety of people which always seemed to benefit him in wonderful ways. Between his lively personality and the scent of sunflowers that radiated from him, he never failed to catch an eye.

He had been getting courting requests since his first year, but he never had accepted any of them. He would claim that he had other goals that he wanted to reach before even considering courting, and even his Omega was content with his choices. That was until he had met you.

You were a transfer student that Sir Nighteye had decided would understudy with Mirio and Izuku. You had managed to impress him with your personality as well as your strengths and knowledge. Besides, he knew that you would play a special role after you had agreed to him using his quirk on you.

You had met Mirio when he had appeared to work for the day. Nighteye had watched you introduce yourself with ease and smiled a little at how you had instantly hit it off with Mirio, affectionate omega instantly chatting a storm with the new alpha before Nighteye reminded you both that there was work that needed to be done.

After your first day, you instantly exchanged numbers with Mirio after he suggested that you both should get to know each other better. You agreed and quickly made plans to hang out after class the next day before parting ways to go home,

The next day, you ran to UA to meet up with Mirio after his classes. He was quick to greet you outside of the school and instantly put his arm around your waist. Even if he was an Omega that didn’t know you well, he didn’t hesitate to be affectionate since he didn’t see you as a threat. If Nighteye trusted you, then so did he.

You both chatted as you walked to a nearby park and surprisingly, you were as affectionate with him as he was with you. It made his omega perk up when he felt your hand grab his, pulling him to the swings or when you slide your hand across his lower back to wrap around his waist when you both walked alongside the little pond, but he tried to keep himself from getting too hyper from the attention.

You both walked and played in the park for a while, sharing stories about everything that crossed your minds. He learned about your dreams as, and you learned about his. He couldn’t help but admire the sparkle in your eyes as you talked about your dreams since your passion was on full display.

As the sun began to set, you suggested a small hole in the wall diner that was your favorite, which he promptly agreed to. He didn’t even realize how much time you both had spent together until a slight cool breeze went by, temperature lowering as the sun retreated for the day.

You both shared some ramen at the cafe and enjoyed the company while holding hands and playfully kicking each other under the table. This became a weekly thing, going out to play at the playground before sharing some ramen together before parting ways only to send silly snapchats til one of you had to study or sleep.

This greatly improved your relationship as well as teamwork since you both now trusted each other and knew how your quirks worked. This caused new battle tactics as well as trust in the others quick thinking when something needed a quick answer. Nighteye was extremely pleased to see how you both had grown, instantly able to compare it to how he had once been with All Might.

After Izuku had joined the team, you three were inseparable during your patrols. Izuku naturally learned a lot while around you both, but everything came to a head when you three were stopped by Kai Chisaki and a little girl. Izuku naturally wanted to act, but your hand on his shoulder stopped him as you let Mirio do the talking. After you all let them go, you felt Mirios’ hand slip into yours on the way back. Even if he wouldn’t express it out loud, you knew he was worried that he made the wrong decision.

The next day you got a text asking if you would please come to his room. You had no idea why, but you quickly took notice of how his text seemed more distressed. You had run by the diner, got ramen to go, and ran to the dorms after hitting a convenience store. When you walked into the dorms, you quickly greeted Tamaki who was in the kitchen before rushing to Mirios’ door. You knocked before walking in only to notice that the man was chirping sadly in an unusually large nest. You frowned and sat the bag on the desk before taking off your shoes to join Mirio, spooning him and grabbing his hand in a small attempt to comfort the distressed man.

He never nested unless something was stressing him, like a big test or big task from Nighteye, but this nest was nothing like those. Those nests were meticulous and neat, always fairly small since he just needed a bit of comfort. This seemed like he threw it together in a hurry. Clothes from his closet were tossed messily over tons of blankets. Pillows were thrown everywhere, and he refused to let go of the large elephant you had won him at the local fair.

You mumbled little things in his ear in hopes that it would comfort him while keeping his body as close to yours as possible. You had noticed how his scent had shifted into one that rivaled the smell of a skunk, yet all Mirio could smell was your scent since your body had gone into overdrive to create a comforting hormone. After about 5 minutes, the blond had rolled over and hugged your waist, shoving his nose into your scent gland since it seemed to calm his chirping omega.

He soon spilled about Eri and what Overhaul had been doing to the poor girl. You felt your heart sink as you processed the information, but your attention turned to the omega clinging to you, chirping and venting about how he felt like this was his fault. You quickly pushed him back into your neck to get him to calm back down before explaining that this wasn’t his fault. All that you both could do now was try to help the others in any way you could, but calming himself down was the priority. He nodded and you felt how his fingers clutched your shirt as if you would disappear, and your Alpha whined at how upset the other was.

When Mirio had finally calmed down, you carefully sat him up and kissed his tears away before carefully pulling him to the edge of the nest. “Mirio, darling, Can you go shower for me? You always feel better after a shower. While you do that, I’ll scent some clothes of yours really well so you can rest comfortably. I brought you ramen and snacks too, so when you come out we can snuggle and maybe watch a comedy show?” You knew him so well that it almost made him tear up again. Instead of replying, he carefully cupped your cheeks and kissed your lips. He wasn’t surprised when he felt you kiss back, but the smile you had on your face after made his heart flutter a bit. You chuckled and kissed his head. “Come on, Omega. We need to get you happy so we can be at our best to help.” He crooned when you called him Omega and nodded, slowly getting out of the messy nest to do as you asked.

When he had come out of the shower, he was met with a neatly folded pile of clothes on the bathroom sink. He put them on and smiled at how they smelled like you before walking out to see you had logged into your Netflix so he could pick what you watched before finding you sitting at his desk with two bowls of noodles and a big grin. “You feelin’ better?” He nodded and looked over at the nest before sighing. “Gosh...I guess I got carried away.” “You were distraught, baby. You needed comfort and did what you needed to.”

He ended up abandoning you and the food to tidy up the messy nest since it was bugging him a bit. You watched happily as he tucked things in, draped blankets over, and asked you to scent certain items before placing it where he wanted. When he finished, he plopped down and made grabby hands for the noodles. You only chuckled when he gave puppy dog eyes before moving to hand him the bowl while sitting beside him, an added bonus of a kiss on the cheek which only made the man blush a bit.

Somewhere along the way, your Alpha and his Omega had decided to claim each other, yet neither of you had noticed until that day. How you took care of him and knew exactly what would help. How you climbed into his nest like he had let you time and time again, and how those kisses were different from the ones from before. His kiss on your lips seemed to make you both finally realize what had been decided for you long ago. He was yours, and you were his.

It never was clarified out loud since you both just knew. After you ate, he snuggled under your arm as you both watched the stand up show, chuckling at the jokes while you played with his hair. Occasionally, he would look up at you only to be met with a kiss on the head or a sweet grin in return. If you weren’t looking back at him, he would kiss your jaw to get your attention, and when you did look at him, he would steal a quick kiss. One would lead to two, two would lead to five. Eventually, you both abandoned the show to share sweet kisses. Mirio would occasionally mumble a corny joke against your lips only to get you to laugh before stealing another kiss.

Sure, he never planned on finding a mate so soon, but he was sure glad he found you.

Eijiro Kirishima

(I’m shocked by the lack of Omega Kiri tbh)

Oh boy was Kirishima shy about the fact that he was an Omega. In his world, the one where being manly was admirable, he was shy about being an Omega male as they were often seen as shameful by many. God knows how many time he had heard the term “Puppypooper” when referring to omega males. It was just so...humiliating to him.

When he decided to intern under fatgum, he had no idea that he would be working alongside Tamaki as well as you. He quickly introduced himself and found out that you were an alpha from a different school, but Fatgum had scouted you out. He was a little intimidated, but found himself adoring you in a matter of minutes. You were clearly attentive and frequently reminded Kiri not to overdo it with his quirk since he could be destructive towards himself.

You both instantly clicked and during your breaks at the Fatgum agency, would frequently share food, or spar outside. Tamaki was often too shy to accept your offers, but you always reminded him that he could join at any time. One day while sparring, you caught Kirishima off guard and pinned him on the ground, chuckling as you pointed out his error and how you were able to exploit it. He choked back a chirp from his omega, but you could tell something was up. Instead of making him fight to break free, you helped him up and ruffled his red hair, noticing how his roots were starting to turn black once again. “Hey Kiri, you should let me dye your hair for you sometime. You usually do good at it, but last time you missed a spot in the back. Is that why you wore your headband for a bit?”

The omega huffed a little when you read him like a book before nodding. Even if it made him insecure, his omega perked up after he noticed your attentiveness to him. “Yeah...Bakugo really isn’t the best at helping dye hair. He sorta missed a couple of spots and I knew that he would be upset with himself for missing them.” You grinned and moved closer. “My mom used to dye my hair tons of crazy colors when I was younger. I bet I could dye yours and trim it too?” His omega purred at the idea of your hands in his hair, but he kept it suppressed. “Seriously? You’d do that for me?” You instantly nodded. “Of course! I need my manly man to look as confident as ever, and you tend to get bashful when your roots start to show.” You teased a little which made him whine before swatting at your hand that played with a section of a spike. “Well...If you’d do that for me, how about tomorrow since we don’t have class? You can do it in my dorm room so we don’t have people freaking out over you..” he scratched at the back of his neck and huffed, knowing that Mina, Sero, and Denki would surely try to embarrass him. “Sure. That sounds good to me! Will about 3 work? So I have enough time to get some supplies gathered up?” He grinned a bit and nodded.

The next day, Kirishima had cleaned up his room and made sure it looked nice. Putting the punching bag in the corner of his room, putting away books and papers he had thrown everywhere, and cleaning up his bed that held the smallest of nests possible. He really didn’t want to seem like a messy omega, hell even an omega at all. He huffed softly before feeling his phone vibrate in his pocket, a message that you were here.

He quickly ran down to meet up with you, noticing how you carried multiple bags. “I didn’t expect this much.” You shrugged as he moved to take two of the bags. “Well I made some bento boxes for us cause I assumed you would like a snack sometime during the haircut.” He bit the inside of his cheek gently before nodding. “That would be amazing.”

When you got inside, he managed to sneak you away from everybody with ease. He didn’t start pulling you until he heard a familiar alpha lecturing Izuku down the hall. That’s when he decided to make a run for it with you. Once you were both in his room, you couldn’t help but laugh. “Well that was an adventure!” he moved to sit the bags on his desk before sighing. “Iida would die if he found out an omega snuck an alpha into his room.” He replied before realizing what he said. “Shit-” He looked down and sighed before turning back to you. “You...do know I’m an omega, right?” “Of course I do Eiji. Fatgum lectured me on not scaring the omegas before you and Tama walked in.” He blushed a little hearing that before sighing. “I wish people wouldn’t underestimate me cause I’m an omega. Like seriously, just because you’re an alpha doesn’t mean that I’d be afraid of you.” His shoulders slouched and you could tell he was feeling down.

You slowly walked over and hugged him from behind. “Kiri,” Your voice made his omega stand at attention, looking forward to any word you said. “You are one manly omega. I mean that in the best ways too, like remember when you made your debut? You went unbreakable and saved a whole bunch of people? That was cool as hell.” He couldn’t help but purr as you spoke, leaning back in your embrace before sighing. “But I’m still an omega-” “And I’m just an alpha. Just cause you’re an omega doesn’t mean anything.” You took his hand before turning him around, cupping his cheeks in your hands so he looked at you. “You are seriously one of the most badass heroes I’ve ever seen. I think you may even be cooler than Crimson riot.” His eyes widened, his cheeks flushed and he looked away. “Oh hush. You’re just saying that to make me feel better.” He pulled away before you took his hand. “Well, is it?” He stopped for a moment and thought about it. You, an alpha, thought he could be cooler than Crimson Riot. He started to smile before sighing. “Yeah...It is.” You just smiled and moved to hug him. “Good. Now let me wash your hair. God knows how much shit you put in it.”

Next thing he knew, his head was leaned back into his bathroom sink as your fingers massaged his scalp. He didn’t hold back his loud, content, purrs as your fingers untangled the knots and washed out the gel he used. You wouldn’t admit it out loud, but you might’ve spent a while just playing with the omegas hair to enjoy his purrs that made your Alpha howl in joy. After you finished washing his hair, you continued to play with his hair while cutting it before you bleached any missed spots. Then you moved to the roots, explaining to him that they will bleach quickly due to the scalp being warm, and that you never start with the scalp. By the time you were finished, his roots were unnoticeable and his hair was cut the length he loved it to be.

His omega crooned at how well he looked and instantly wanted to attack the alpha with affection, but Kiri just smiled and moved to hug you softly. “Thanks for helping. I feel a lot better with this fixed. You hugged him back, which made him purr one more time before snuggling against your neck to scent you. You hadn’t noticed it before, but maybe that was just because Kirishimas’ scent was so natural. It was refreshing, like outdoors after it rained. The kind of smell that you can't help but relax around and take one more deep breath. He noticed how you instantly returned back the affection and scented him as well. He blushed dark and pulled away to quickly move to grab the food. “H-Hey we forgot about these!” He said rather loudly which made you chuckle a bit. “Well I guess we better eat them then.”

He noticed how his box had been full of steak, cooked just how he liked it, and some amazing fried rice. After he had swallowed some of the steak, his omega purred once more. It made him bashful knowing that his Omega was being so loud, but you didn’t seem to mind. He continued to eat, occasionally glancing over at you to see you happily eating too. “Um...I have a question?” He started as he looked down at the box. “W-Would you ever be open to courting?” He asked without thinking it through. When he looked up, your eyes were wide and your cheeks were pink.

His omega started to panic and a small whimper came from him which made you jump. “H-Hey wait I just was caught off guard please don’t be sad.” He huffed and pushed you away when you tried to hug him. “Don’t. I’m not some weak omega who needs to be comforted by an alpha.” He said sharply, more to himself than to you. Yet when he looked back at you and saw the hurt in your eyes, he felt guilty. “I...I wasn’t trying to belittle you. I just thought you took my shock as a bad thing and wanted to hug you..” You spoke before looking down at your hands. “A-and I guess I kinda...Got my hopes up.” You chuckled and moved to play with your hair. “I thought you were scenting me and...I kinda was hopeful, but when you asked that I kinda just...Shut down for a sec.”

He felt his omega whine again, clawing at his chest to try to get him to comfort you, but he didn’t move. “I’m...so sorry.” he said softly as you shook your head. “No! No, No. Don’t be sorry Kiri, I was being stupid and I shouldn’t have acted-” “I like you. A lot. I have ever since you helped me out after my debut. You have no idea how much I wanted to just drown in your scent when you hugged me that day.” He spoke quickly and moved closer. “I know I’m just an omega, and I have no idea on what to do for courting, but I really just...Fuck I want you.” He moved to grab your hands softly. “Alpha, I want you to be mine.”

It took you a moment to process what he said, and his Omega was whimpering loudly and clawing at his chest for an answer. He got it when you slowly started to move, taking his wrist before moving to rub it against your neck. He was confused as to why his omega was howling with joy until it finally hit him. You were rubbing his scent on your neck with the gland on his wrist, a small smile on your face as you could smell his scent getting stronger. He smiled bright and almost pounced on you, rubbing his scent gland against yours properly while hugging you tight. You laughed and moved to rub his hips, a weak spot of his that caused him to melt and purr against your neck, nose snuggling closer to inhale more of your scent. He became putty in your arms, omega purring loudly once again at the acceptance. He sighed softly before moving to pull away from your neck to pepper your jaw with soft kisses, sharp teeth grazing a spot or two that made you gasp. He just chuckled before moving to kiss your lips, hesitant and inexperienced, but obviously happy. When he pulled away, he pecked your nose again before getting off of you. “I love you, Alpha.” He said as you sat up, fixing your hair that Eijiro had his hands buried in moments before. “I love you too, my manly omega.” You moved to sit beside him before kissing a spot on his shoulder, him instantly weakening before moving to steal another kiss from you.

After you had finally convinced the omega to eat the rest of the food instead of giving kisses, he happily laid his head in your lap while you played with his hair. “Hey omega?” He simply hummed, not even bothering to open his eyes. “Don't listen to them anymore, alright? Omegas can be stronger than any Alpha and you are the living proof of that.”

Cue his cheeks getting red once more before he moved to steal another kiss from you, so happy that he could say you were right, and he was yours.
