#it doesn’t get better thank bkdk

[seagreenstardust]

One of my favorite things about bkdk is how easily they fall into just about any AU

And Hori gave us so many to work with, winter and fantasy and pirates and steampunk and dragon riders and even band AU’s, and more and I just realized

It doesn’t matter what world you put bkdk in, it works because the chemistry is there in canon

[belphiegore]

Here are just my overall thoughts about the MHA epilogue and the fandom response.

We don’t know if the leaks are real, they probably are, but until it’s confirmed we keep it open. AI can be crazy these days.

I’m upset about my ship yes, but not in the way people would think. I’m fully aware, most BkDk shippers are fully aware, that the ship wasn’t going to be canon, it never was. Shipping is a way to have fun, to look at the story through a different lens. Queer interpretations of literature and anime is not a new development. The reason I’m a little upset is because I know the IzuOcha moment will make ‘those’ people feel comfortable to be toxic towards fans who enjoyed same sex ships in anime, especially BkDk enjoyers. To be quite frank, most of the people doing the bragging aren’t what I’d call “true shippers” just people who hate same sex ships and are happy to see even the smallest inkling of confirmation of a straight ship so that they can rub it in the faces of others. Because let’s be honest, the IzuOcha moment was nothing more than that, just a small intimate moment that can imply romance just like all the other moments between them in the anime and manga so far. It’s nothing big like a kiss, so it’s not like the two were even confirmed to be together at all. Fans of the ship still had plenty to go off on and imagine them together afterwards, and fans of other ships have enough experience to just keep on shipping. Canon doesn’t matter, it’s just about doing what you want. Overall, it’s not an issue. At this point in time I do think that Horikoshi would’ve been smarter to completely refrain from any romantic moments in the end, as the bigger a popular fandoms is, it’s more likely to (sadly) contain people who get way too into shipping discourse, and begin displaying toxic behaviors. Now everybody keep in mind, shipping isn’t the problem. Shipping is fine. It’s fine for fans to feel upset about their ships, it’s a normal part of fandom culture. The problem comes when toxic behavior begins to become prevalent: doxxing, threats, bullying, offensive/bigoted language, harassment, mass reporting, and such are not acceptable. Long comment threads arguing with someone online for an hour or longer is just straight up annoying, I’m sure we can all agree. However I’m sure the discourse will die down, and the toxic behavior will stop. We just have to wait and abstain from disrespectful behavior.

Now about Izuku’s rejection of Katsuki. First, I’ve seen people saying Bakugo wanted Izuku to be his sidekick, which isn’t likely. While Bakugo is rejecting interns and sidekicks, I see it as him waiting for Izuku and trying to leave room for him in his agency. He doesn’t want Izuku as a sidekick he wants to be a duo. He doesn’t want to fill his agency with sidekicks and just call it a day, he wants someone to stand side by side with him and constantly challenge him and support him to be better.

I think with this ending Horikoshi is conveying that while Izuku is going to be a hero again, and is still friends with Katsuki and will still support and compete with him, he doesn’t want Katsuki to be “tied down”? (I don’t know how to explain it) When Izuku turns down Bakugo’s offer, Izuku ISN’T saying “no, I don’t value you or what you did for me”. He’s saying, “I’m thankful for what you did, I love and care about you but I don’t want you to be dependent on me. I have to make my own choices separate from you and put myself first.” Which is a good message. A great one. However I think it’s should have been made a little…clearer? So far the scene has Bakugo seemingly be left behind (again) saying “when everyone is special to you… no one is really special”. As if he feels abandoned. This seems like it’s against how their relationship has been defined throughout the story. It’s not about the ship, it never was about the ship for me. It’s about the relationship and development between two characters that I became so invested in.

One of the biggest things I enjoyed about MHA is these two characters. I enjoyed Deku’s ‘favoritism’ towards Bakugo, it’s a flaw, but an interesting one, and one that isn’t detrimental to his character as it can also be seen as a beneficial trait. Everyone has a person who holds a special weight, someone that they prioritize over others. This can be a bad thing and a good thing. I think this aspect of Bakugo and Deku’s relationship with each other is what drew so many to be so invested in their characters. I’ve always described the two of them as being soulmates in every sense of the word. Intrinsically tied together, despite the odds and despite their feelings. One cannot be without the other. Some might agree this is detrimental in a relationship, and I would say in real life it could be, but for two characters who’s writing and developments evolve in tandem with each other, it just makes sense to me. For them to be forever tied together. It’s good that Deku potentially doesn’t want them to become “just rivals” however to me, it was presented in a way that makes it pretty easy for people, to see it as out of left field with Deku straight up ‘rejecting’ Bakugo, when for the whole series one of his greatest wishes is to be at Katsuki’s side. I think the conclusion, that “no one is really special” is something that just hurts as a BkDk lover, and to me, seemingly goes against the development of their relationship.

Thankfully it seems that Katsuki says “See you”, not letting himself be left behind. He’s hurt and sad about Izuku’s rejection, but he’s still going to be close with him, he’ll still be Izuku’s friend and biggest supporter, he’s just not chasing after him. I suppose it’s implying that instead of chasing after one another, they’ll stand side by side. Not together as one, but together as individuals. Again, I wish it was a little clearer, as it gives this sense of openness that doesn’t really fit this story as an ending. I thought Chapter 430 was probably the better note to end off on, as it gives you that bittersweet feeling but ends on a final overwhelmingly positive note. The dream is realized, friends support friends, everything is final and conclusive. Nothing open that can be twisted negatively. But that’s just my personal opinion.

All in all, I’m not sure how to feel. It hurts a bit, it feels bittersweet. Because you worry. You know the two of them are so close, practically bound together, but you worry that they’ll grow apart, that their relationship will never be what was imagined. I don’t truly know the meaning of the scene, these are just my thoughts. Until Horikoshi confirms the leaks, we won’t definitely know his intentions for the scene and the ending. All I know is that I feel a little sad in my worry that these fictional characters I’m so ridiculously hung up on won’t be together anymore. And that’s okay. It’s okay for people to be so invested. It’s part of what keeps a fandom alive. Everyone just needs to keep in mind to be nice to each other. We went through such a nice period of calm when we thought ch 430 was the last chapter, please let this die down and we can return to that calm. We can all analyze, theorize, make fanart, create fix-it’s and rewrites once this is all over.

Bkdk fics for the Soul

tell them what you saw in me (not how i turned out to be)

Izuku volunteers himself as a tribute. He's eighteen, it's his last reaping, and still, he jumps out of the crowd and stops the world.

It's probably the stupidest thing he's ever done. But he doesn't regret it.

Not until the next tribute's name is called and it belongs to his best friend.

Katsuki Bakugou.

Pit against the boy he's loved all his life in a battle royale to the death, Izuku has to make some decisions.

first meeting

Who he is when the world is watching. And who he wants to be when he dies.

Katsuki has a plan. He’s been a virgin for long enough that it’s starting to get pathetic. He doesn’t have time for a relationship, but it wouldn’t be so bad to fuck someone more experienced than he is once and get it over with so he can move onto better methods of stress relief than watching Netflix with a jar of grilled olives and a beer.

Too bad it turns out that his ‘experienced’ date is a virgin, too—and a massive nerd.

take care

There are words to say stay safe, I’ll miss you, I love you, but Kacchan has always preferred to leave things unspoken. Izuku isn’t much with languages, but he thinks he’s figured out this one.

“Emotional constipation manifested as over-the-top housewifery?” Mina asks. Before Izuku can say that is not what he meant at all, she nods. “Yeah, I can see it.”

How to Train Your Useless Dragon

Bakugou Katsuki needs to kill a dragon to take its teeth and become a warrior of his tribe.

But, what? Why the fuck doesn't this dragon have teeth?

don't be a stranger

“Not even a thank you for your friendly neighborhood Spiderman?” Izuku called out teasingly. “Where are you going?”

“Why the fuck do you wanna know, creep?”

“You sure you can make it back home safe?”

Katsuki glanced back angrily and flipped him the bird. “Eat shit, bugboy.”

Bugboy. That was new.

In which Izuku is Spiderman, Katsuki is nosy, and juggling high school and vigilante work has never been so difficult when your best friend is convinced that something’s up.

Or, five times Katsuki almost finds out that Izuku is Spiderman. One time he actually does.

face reveal!

SmallMight and Dynamight are two streamers that nerd out over All Might video games and often interact, both on and off stream, though never with their cameras on. Izuku and Katsuki two are college students that find solace and friendship through online streaming, and occasionally think about their estranged childhood best friends.

It all changes when SmallMight reaches a milestone and finally turns his camera on.

Worth It

I have something for you, once you finish eating,” Katsuki says.

Deku perks up with poorly hidden curiosity. “Oh?”

His hair is still damp, dripping onto his grey shirt with a simple Sidekick emblazoned on the front. He’s wearing one of Katsuki’s sweatpants and a pair of fuzzy socks stuffed into slippers, looking so comfortable and at home that Katsuki has the sudden urge to tackle him into the wall or squeeze his face and kiss him until he passes out. Normal urges when dealing with Deku, of course.

Instead, Katsuki throws one of his chopsticks at him, nailing Deku perfectly on the forehead.

“Yeah,” Katsuki says, ignoring Deku’s squawk.

-

Deku doesn't give himself nice things often enough for Katsuki's taste. So, he'll fix that, starting with one iconic Lego set in familiar reds, blues, and yellows at a time.

A BKDK Hunger Games AU ch.5

LINK TO CHAPTER 1

Inko smiles at Izuku from across the room as he kisses his sleeping sister’s hair. Eri had passed out almost as soon as she had snuggled down into her Momma’s bed. Lulled to sleep by the sweet murmurs of her family talking about everyday life. 

Izuku bids his Mom goodnight with a kiss on her cheek before she climbs in bed to wrap her arms around Eri where Izuku had just been. Izuku switches off the light and quietly closes the door behind him, stepping across the corridor to his room. 

He clambers over to the window above his bed and peers out to the Bakugous’ house a few metres in front of him. 

Kacchan’s light is still on. 

Using their usual signal, Izuku pulls out the jar of pebbles he keeps under his bed for this purpose and throws three in succession across to Kacchan’s window. Each stone hits its target perfectly. They’ve been doing this for almost two decades now.

A shadow appears behind the curtains and Izuku smiles as Kacchan peeks his head out from behind the curtains. Kacchan disappears for a moment to switch off his light before he’s back and opening his window wide. 

“Hi, Kacchan.”

“I knew you wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight, Loser.”

Izuku rolls his eyes, “Says you. It’s 10pm.” 

Kacchan’s eyes go wide before he turns around to check his clock. “Damn… Touché.”

Humming, Izuku lets himself bask in the quiet hum of the summer evening for a few moments. Summer nights have always felt so tranquil to Izuku. It’s a shame he isn’t feeling the same way right now. 

“Eri cried earlier…” 

“She’s too much like you for her own good.”

“Hey.” Izuku glares at his boyfriend. Kacchan’s face is soft and he realises that Kacchan was only trying to make him laugh. Izuku smiles. “You’re not wrong, I guess.”

“I’m never wrong.” Kacchan pauses, looking concerned. “Has she fallen asleep?” 

Despite Eri and Kacchan’s rocky relationship, Izuku has never needed to wonder whether his boyfriend actually cares for his little sister or not. As much as Kacchan tries to hide it, he can be incredibly doting when it comes to Eri. Even when they were younger it was obvious how much Kacchan would look out for her. 

If a boy ever looked Eri’s way, they would soon be scared away by the glaring blond standing protectively over her. And Izuku doesn’t even want to think about what Kacchan might do to someone that hurt Eri. 

Izuku just about manages to hold back his grin. 

“Yeah she’s passed out with Mom. I wore her out with my rambling.”

“Hah. Figures.”

“Hey!” 

They both fall into silence again. 

Even with it looming above their heads like storm clouds, they’ve been avoiding talking about the reaping all day. It happens every year, but they still get scared every time July comes around again. 

“It’s Eri’s first reaping, isn’t it?”

Izuku frowns. 

“You know it is. She turned 12 last December.” 

Her name is only in there once. 

It can’t be Eri.

It can’t.

“Izuku, look at me.”

Teary green eyes meet confident crimson.

“It’s going to be okay.” Kacchan’s tone is strong and unwavering, Izuku’s breath hitches on his first sob. “No matter what happens - we will be okay.” 

They don’t break eye contact even as the last of Izuku’s resolve crumbles and tears start pouring down his cheeks. Izuku wishes he could crawl across the gap between their windows and huddle down into Kacchan’s arms. 

The warm gaze meeting his own from the other side of his window will have to do for now.

“You cried like this on your first reaping too. And that turned out okay, didn’t it? And shit, Deku, you had your name in three times at your first reaping and they still haven’t picked you even though you had 18 in there last time. Whatever happens, we’ll get through it together.” 

Katsuki sits across from him until Izuku’s breath is no longer catching over his cries, and the tears on his face have dried. 

“Feeling better?”

Izuku smiles a little. 

“Yes. Thank you, Kacchan.” 

“Come on, let’s try and get some sleep before the shit show tomorrow. Wouldn’t want the Captiol to think we’re disrespecting them if we yawn during their favourite show or something…” 

Izuku laughs. 

“Yeah, we would never want the Capitol to think we don’t like them or anything.” 

Kacchan smiles back at him and Izuku’s breath catches in his chest.

“There’s my stupid Deku.”

They sleep with their windows open.

[dekusleftsock]

I love your analyses so much! Especially the one about why bkdk and togachako aren't toxic. You really changed my mind on bkdk, so thanks for that!!

Awww you’re so sweet!!! Ty!

I feel like fandom has a habit of either exaggerating something, or straight up using the wrong terms because they don’t know what the term really is.

Toxic, abusive, etc are so wildly used for so many different things. And authors intent also gets lost in that. A story and it’s interpretations can easily be taken and malformed and destroyed. Prime example would actually be the first Matrix released in 1999. It’s a movie about trans identity, the allegory being confirmed by the authors years later, yet most people remember the matrix simply because of the “red or blue pill” scene, taking it as a silly joke.

So I feel like it’s really easy to get trapped in the whole “this ship is toxic” mantra, especially on platforms that aren’t tumblr. (Tumblr too ofc, but it’s easy to just find a post and create a new opinion since the algorithm isn’t necessarily built to keep you in an echo chamber)

And it also just feels toxic itself? It doesn’t promote critical thinking to just say “this ship is abusive”, especially when that word is so unbelievably watered down.

Going back to authors intent, if you told me “Yoon Bum and Sangwoo are toxic and abusive as fuck from killing stalking” I’d say, “no shit Sherlock” because it was from start to finish supposed to BE THAT WAY. (And anyone who says they aren’t I fully don’t trust you that was absolutely not the point of killing stalking) BKDK always falls into this toxic/abusive mantra because of the bullying and the general rough dynamic that Katsuki creates. And that’s stupid in my opinion. Most of its hatred is built off of people’s own experiences with bullying and a refusal to let a character grow and change when they have a trait they don’t like. For some reason people see mass murder or serial killers as more redeemable or better people than childhood bullying. WHICH THAT BULLYING???? MOST OF ITS RETCONNED NOW AND BASED OFF OF ASSUMPTIONS OF WHAT BAKUGOU ACTED LIKE.

The killing yourself comment he told deku? Literally retconned. I’m so done with that shit. Like I could attempt to tell these people why character development matters more than their stupid fucking opinions, but atp I’d literally rather just say “it’s retconned” because it fucking is.

Any opinions people have of togachako being toxic or something I’ve just straight up brushed off as misogyny. BECAUSE IF A MAN WAS IN THAT DYNAMIC… IF A MAN WAS THE HERO… IF A MAN FIXED HER EVERYONE WOULD FUCKING LIKE IT

Because people like when men fix women. But ochako doesn’t WANT to fix her. She likes the current toga. She just doesn’t want the murder. Good fucking day.

[kynamo]

hello!! i just wanted to ask a few questions if that's fine

1) ur style is amazing!! i enjoy how soft it all looks - its not a question just wanted to say that

2) why do you like bkdk? not trying to be rude or anything! i'm really curious is all

3) what brushes/programs do you use, i've been curious about it for a while now

Whoa my first ask!

thank you so much!!! I'm glad you enjoy my style so much, it makes me happy to see people enjoy my art

I'll answer your third question first as that will be a much shorter response HA; I use Clip Studio Paint, as for my brushes I use all sorts of brushes that I've downloaded from the shop. But the brushes I've been using the most lately is one called 6B Pen! the content ID is: 1995920 if that helps :)

as for your second question... this will be a lengthy response! and a bit of spoilers too the further I talk (1.2k words! goddamn)

I've honestly loved both Deku and Bakugo since the beginning! Their dynamic is one of the most interesting dynamics I've seen in a while personally. I was really into MHA back in 2016-2017 (my irls that knew me then will know this as a fact) and I was a HUGE Deku fan. I remember when the panels of Bakugo getting kidnapped happened and that was WILD. I knew since the beginning that these two were not gonna just disappear from each other's lives, they were connected to each other.

Witnessing Bakugo's development made me root for him and love him. A lot of people want him to change his entire personality which doesn't make sense to me, like he wouldn't be Bakugo without the attitude. He's a flawed character who has changed for the better. I'm honestly glad it took him a while to apologize. You actually got to see the progression of him realizing that he fucked up and is genuinely sorry for what he’s done. If it had been done any sooner the apology wouldn’t have been as impactful. He wouldn’t have been as genuine otherwise. That’s HIGHLY important to him as a character. There’s so much I can say about him as a character as there’s quite a lot of depth to him that I heavily enjoy!

I’ll leave Bakugo with one final thing as I’ve said so much already gejdndn but!! I think one of the major things some people struggle with when it comes to change is that change doesn’t always mean changing every aspect of yourself. Changing every part of yourself can sometimes make you feel lost or like an impostor in your own skin. I think it’s important for Bakugo’s character to have the development to understand he isn’t invincible, that he can lose, he’s made mistakes and has been trying to make up for it, and it’s okay to feel. It’s okay to feel but you can no longer bottle it up like once before. Those days are over. But that doesn’t mean he has to change the core part of himself. He’s learned his own way of what it means to be a hero.

Yeah Bakugo is loud! He’s proud! He’s witty! He’s able to adapt to situations and he’s quick to think about what he needs to do to reach absolute victory! He’s learned the lesson that he doesn’t have to be nice, but he needs to be kind. Those are two very different things. He’s never gonna stop swearing and being a bit of a menace but you know you always got someone in your corner when you need it with him.

Deku to me is also an incredibly interesting character. In the beginning he wasn’t super confident about himself, he had to play catch-up to all of his peers when they’ve had their quirks since they were 4! That means he had to work harder, be smarter, to be adaptable as he wasn’t able to use OFA to its full potential. While everyone had years worth of practice when it came to trying to get into UA, he had less than a DAY. There was also a giant secret that was his responsibility to keep at such a young age.

A secret… that he immediately told Bakugo about.

Deku who wasn’t confident in himself, someone who was told he could never do it, a boy who had no power of his own, yet he had a soul/heart of a hero. He naturally wanted to save. The kicker is his first need to save came about because of Bakugo. Deku saw Bakugo and his body moved on it's own. There's so much to unpack with that alone! But Deku obviously had his development occur over the series.

He struggled with this idea that he had to do this alone. He was isolated from his peers due to having to keep this massive secret from them. You can see he got close to his friends, but he didn't really talk to them about himself. Yeah they were close! But he kept a lot of his guard up around them still.

He was friendly but he wasn't open.

It was interesting to witness this arc of his over time how he became more confident in himself and in his abilities to save. But there was also another set of developments that were occurring that has led us to his vigilante arc. This need to be a hero led him down isolation. He became fearful because Shigaraki figured out his weakness.

Deku doesn't want to admit to his own feelings.

Deku keeps it locked up.

And that to me is when shit gets real fascinating.

I said earlier that Bakugo has become more open over time. He's accepted his feelings and isn't trying to bottle it up any longer. Deku on the other hand who is seen having his heart on his sleeve never tells anyone what he is really thinking. Every once in a while does he actually say what's truly on his mind (“I could admire All Might from a distance, but you were right there. This amazing person in my life! That's why I always… I always… chased after you!” - Deku says this in chapter 119!) but other than that he keeps his cards rather close to his chest (“When the urge to win is stronger than the desire to save, I tend to run my mouth a little more without thinking. You'd think I'd hate myself for that, but…somewhere deep inside… It's because you're who I picture when I think of ‘victory.’” - Deku's thoughts in chapter 120!).

It wasn't until recently that we, as the readers - have been entirely closed off from what Deku is thinking. Yet there has been a new possibility that has just opened up: Bakugo's thoughts.

"Because for all of his triumphs, he was still just a damned nerd." (chapter 348!)

Holy fuck??

Everyone is pretty much certain at this point in time that Bakugo was the one narrating chapter 348. Deku closed his thought process off but Bakugo has opened up his. Quite the fucking development if I do say so myself. They somehow swapped! And I can talk for two hours about this (and I have actually! the power of neurodivergency is so real) but I should cut this much shorter HELP

This all adds up to why these guys are my favorite out of the whole series. Their separate development including how their arcs go with each other and bounce off one another is so fucking cool!! They're foils of each other and it just works. I've always been interested in characters and how they'll change over the course of time and these two have really made my brain rattle.

It's due to this that to me they just work overall. Shit you don't even have to see them in a romantic light if you really don't want to. But to me: they're partners in every sense of the word. Their relationship cannot be broken, they're always meant to have the other in their lives. And that's why I ship them.

Plus to me they're just so silly... how could you not love them???

THANK YOU IF YOU REACHED THIS FAR?? and thank you anon for asking!!!

[vultureboi]

!-MHA SPOILERS-!

First off, I know some people don’t ship bkdk as romantic. But hear me out.

There is TOO MUCH SHIT that’s just- it’s impossible for me to not see it!! I swear!!! Uraraka x Deku isn’t going to happen. I can tell you why! How much have we seen of Uraraka and Deku? How many instances are they fighting side by side? How many times are they causing trouble together? Barely any!! Katsuki is always there causing trouble right by Izuku’s side.

Katsuki and Izuku fight side by side, argue like a married couple, have known each other since forever, and even have a special relationship with nicknames!! Kacchan? No one else gets to call him that! When Denki tries, Kat gets mad. And honestly? I feel like when Uraraka started calling Izuku Deku and then he chose it as his hero name, I think Katsuki was pissed. Like- “uh- no. I gave you that! That’s my name for you!!”

I also believe part of the rivalry with Uraraka and Katsuki is love rivalry. I truly believe during their fight at the sports festival they were also slightly fighting over Izuku.

But when Uraraka figures out that Deku needs to focus, I appreciated that. She backed off and put her feelings aside for the better. But in a lot of anime, usually, if there’s a love interest, they’re featured in most episodes with a strong role. In the movies, Uraraka was there, but not a strong role. Katsuki is almost every event is a strong role.

I really feel the two main characters are Deku and Katsuki. Not Deku and Uraraka. Yes, we had confirmation that Uraraka likes Deku. But we’ve seen nothing about Deku liking her.

“But he blushes when Uraraka is in his face!”

Uh, yeah. He’s never hung out with girls before. He said that. So he doesn’t know what to do and gets embarrassed easily, even with the guys. He’s just an anxious ball of green fluff.

But Katsuki has been a huge part of Izuku’s life and vice versa. They literally grew based on each other. Katsuki eventually learning to let himself be saved thanks to Izuku. Izuku learning to stand up from himself and make himself stronger from Katsuki. They literally use each other to reach the top in such a perfect way.

In the beginning of the story, it was clear that their relationship was not healthy, correct. However, Katsuki apologized and explained himself during the vigilante arc and admitted to All Might that he was helping train Izuku as a form of making up for his past mistakes. A way to apologize.

If you look at even the basic dynamics of an anime with love interests, you see that Katsuki is the one that is most viewed besides Izuku. And usually, the two main characters are love interests.

My dad actually told me it couldn’t work because the childhood friend never wins, which, I laughed my ass off, so did he. But every way I see it, if there is going to be romance in this, it’s going to be bkdk.

Plus, you can find a BUNCH of hints in actual texts and translations. Such as Edgeshot using “he” as in “boyfriend”. Which, if you don’t know, Japanese people don’t usually use pronouns. They say their name if they can. They could have done “Deku is coming back” but instead they say it as if calling Deku Katsuki’s boyfriend.

So is this really a question by this point? The main characters are Izuku and Katsuki. In a romance anime, the two main characters are the love interests. Whether it turns out to be romantic or not, I guarantee you. There is just too much proof of bkdk being the main thing.

There’s no convincing me otherwise.

They better hold fucking hands at least.

A kiss on the cheek or something at most like- c’mon.

[darkcircles4lyfe]

I always love your analysis and I was kinda curious on your thoughts on a certain topic! We know when talking about black whip going out of control, Izuku trails off and doesn’t talk about what activated it. Do you think he’s *consciously* intentionally pushing down his feelings and beating around the bush, or moreso is literally oblivious to what the true cause is? I know us bkdks tend to assume he’s being dodgy but i recently saw someone point out how he seems to actually *forget* his trauma and now I’m wondering if he really is more clueless than we think (we as an audience get to see the pattern, but every other time he’s lost control because of katsuki OTHER than black whip has been a traumatic event)

Ooooo I love this question thank you for asking. 

Since the day I saw the apology chapter, I always thought Izuku forgetting what Katsuki said to him in his sacrifice must be because of the trauma. However the blackwhip thing was a whole other scenario and I find myself asking, was that really traumatic in the same way? He lost control, he experienced a powerful flood of emotions, and then he had to bottle them up for safety’s sake. That certainly does sound a lot like the pattern of trauma. The only thing is, he doesn’t show any signs of forgetting the event, especially considering he keeps having flashbacks to Banjo’s words. So... idk. Your idea might actually be better summed up by the narration over Toga’s confession about him being oblivious to romantic feelings unless they’re spelled out. Perhaps that could extend to his own feelings as well. 

This is somewhat of a tangent to your question, but I have been wondering what Izuku’s mastery of blackwhip implies about the state of his heart. That he has accepted his emotions? Constrained them? Is he even using its full potential? The symbolism remains unclear to me and it bugs me a lot. We know he absorbed Endeavor’s advice about parallel processes and that’s it. 

Banjo clearly explained the task ahead of Izuku when he said "it’s okay to get mad. Rage can be the source.” Yet in all the training that follows, we never get to see Izuku take this into consideration at all. He focuses on restraining blackwhip completely and then slowly drawing it out. What I can guess from this is that he ignored the part of Banjo’s advice about anger and instead focused solely on control. Izuku doesn’t like his anger, and perhaps doesn’t want to accept it as a part of himself. For someone who sees themselves as deeply altruistic, anger is like a curse, a liability, a failure. I can guess this because it’s very reminiscent of him inadvertently mimicking even the parts of Katsuki he hates when he feels a drive to win. He claimed he couldn’t tell Katsuki about that either. Why?

The simplest explanation is that his anger triggers most strongly in tandem with his love for Katsuki, since blackwhip activated in response to Katsuki being insulted over a sensitive subject, and because Izuku’s image of victory is in Katsuki, explosive anger included.

But your question asks whether or not Izuku understands this and consciously chooses to avoid it, or if he’s oblivious. Honestly… I hope this doesn’t sound like a cop out, but I think it’s neither. Or, both? In a way? I think he is displaying avoidant behavior, but I want to present a more nuanced picture of what that could be like for him, internally. And I mention the whole anger thing because it’s a more obvious source of shame for him that’s in direct association with Katsuki, rather than say internationalized homophobia, which we haven’t necessarily seen evidence of. It could be that he simply doesn’t know how to express himself about this issue. When he trails off, feigns ignorance, etc, maybe he does so in response to a serious mental block that won’t allow him to tell the truth.

Anon, have you ever held onto a secret so monumental, so personal and so strong, that it physically felt too big to fit out of your mouth? Imagine spending so long pushing something down, you don’t know how to feel it anymore. Imagine wanting to pour your heart out to someone, but not being able to find the words because you can’t even bear to think about it long enough to do any real introspection. And then your habit of lying to compensate becomes so ingrained that it’s like a totally different person is speaking on your behalf, automatically.

I can very easily see how this could happen to Izuku as he has loved Katsuki his whole life, through all the pain and distance and misunderstandings. How else is a person supposed to cope with all that? This all could be the after-effects of a subtler, more constant trauma. Now Katsuki is finally truly open to him (post-apology), and he just doesn’t have the capacity to accept it, as much as he may want to. However that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to overcome. All it takes is the right push.

quirk shenanigans!

u didnt specify which quirk so i just surprised you :)

send me a trope and i'll write a bkdk drabble!

----------

“I can fucking what?”

“You can hear someone’s thoughts,” the man Katsuki bumped into at the grocery store by accident responds, “the person whose thoughts about you you want to know the most. Sometimes it can be pretty bad, but most people actually come out of it with better self esteem. I hope that’s the case for you, hero Dynamight!”

“Not a hero yet,” Katsuki replies. He’s still in his third year, “how long does this fucking quirk last? Do I have to hear shitty Deku’s thoughts forever?”

Yeah. He knows it’s gonna be Deku.

“Not forever,” the man promises, “it usually lasts about twenty-four hours.”

“A whole goddamn day of Deku muttering in my goddamn head,” Katsuki sighs, “alright. Whatever. I can deal with this. Thanks, old man.”

“Uh, you’re welcome, hero Dynamight!” the man calls after Katsuki as he walks out of the store. He’s trying to mentally prepare himself for whatever Deku’s going to start mumbling in his head, but he’s also nervous. He knows why Deku is the one he’s going to hear the thoughts of; Deku has every right to secretly hate Katsuki, or be thinking about his demise every second of every day. Or maybe Deku hasn't truly forgiven him, or doesn’t want to be his friend. Katsuki would be lying if he said he wasn’t a little scared of whatever Deku thinks about him. But he’s Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight, and he smiles in the face of danger. So he gets back to the dorms with his head held high, pretending he doesn’t give a fuck what Deku thinks of him. He’s not sure if he’ll tell Deku about it, maybe only if he has to confront him.

“Bakubro!” Kirishima yells when Katsuki steps inside the dorms, “you’re back!”

“I got all your shitty groceries,” Katsuki grunts, setting the bags down on the kitchen counter and starting to unpack them, “you shits need to eat healthier.”

“I can’t live without my Oreos, Bakugou,” Kaminari says. Katsuki rolls his eyes as he puts a box of cereal away, and from his periphery he sees Deku watching him from one of the tables in the common room, giving Katsuki a smile and a wave when they make eye contact. Katsuki rolls his eyes, but he does wave back. Deku beams.

Kacchan is so kind, putting away everyone’s groceries and looking out for his friends to eat better! I’m so happy that we’ve become friends again.

Katsuki jolts at the words in his head. That was not what he was expecting.

“Shitty Deku,” Katsuki mutters fondly, cheeks burning red.

Kacchan is so pretty, Katsuki hears as he reaches up to put something in a cabinet, he has such nice muscles. He’s so strong, and he works so hard.

Why the fuck did Katsuki worry Deku would secretly hate him? Now that he thinks about it, a constant stream of compliments makes so much more sense. It’s Izuku “Kacchan sugoi” Midoriya, for fuck’s sake. Katsuki sighs in relief.

Deku’s thoughts buzz with general affection for Katsuki for a while, and Katsuki blushes while he cooks. He doesn’t get anything specific from Deku until he’s finishing up the pork he’s cooking for katsudon, and Deku gasps in his mind.

Kacchan’s making katsudon! His katsudon is the best! Kacchan’s so amazing.

Katsuki snorts, even as butterflies storm his stomach. When he glances in Deku’s direction, the other boy has his head propped on his hands and his eyes are half-lidded. Kacchan, comes Deku’s thoughts, I love him so much.

Katsuki drops the pan he was holding. “You what?”

“Huh?” Deku yelps, turning bright red, “d-did I say that out loud?”

“No,” Katsuki ignores the pan and stalks out of the kitchen, walking towards Izuku, “I was hit with a quirk and I can hear your damn thoughts. Thought you’d secretly hate me or some shit, but apparently you-you fucking love me?”

“A quirk?” Izuku processes slowly, “secretly hate you? I could never!”

Not when Kacchan is so amazing, so worthy of being loved.

“Stop that!” Katsuki screeches, flustered. Deku eeps.

“Sorry, Kacchan!” Deku cries, “I really do love you, though.”

“I was not fucking expecting this today,” Katsuki says, and then sighs, “I love you too, Deku.”

Oh my fucking God Kacchan loves me Kacchan loves me and I love Kacchan Kacchan’s so amazing Kacchan loves me back this is real RED ALERT RED ALERT-

“DEKU.”

“Sorry!” Deku yells again, shutting his thoughts up, “I’m just so happy.”

Katsuki sighs. Deku is so fucking endearing. Even his thoughts are adorable, even if they’re also annoying as fuck. Katsuki loves him so much, though, so it’s okay.

“Me too,” Katsuki admits, and then leans forward and kisses Deku.

OH MY GOD KACCHAN’S KISSING ME, HE’S SO AMAZING-

“Deku, shut the fuck up!”

#bkdk #dkbk cw: angst, non graphic talk of suicide

College student Katsuki’s new phone number only has a single digit difference than the local suicide hotline. He gets a ton of wrong calls that first week and considers changing it, but after a while he decides he doesn’t mind.

Until late one afternoon, when he gets a call from the childhood friend he used to bully mercilessly in middle school.

“H-Hello, I’m Izuku Midoriya. P-Please, I need help.”

Izuku calls everyday at the same time after that. Katsuki always answers, afraid if he misses that something will happen. Even though Izuku only knows him as “K” during their calls, Katsuki worries how Izuku will react if he discovers who Katsuki really is.

Especially now that Izuku’s starting to open up to him.

“The bullying got so bad I had to change schools and I never could fit in. You remind me of him, you know. That friend I told you about, ‘Kacchan’,” Izuku confesses to him during a call one night.

“You’re both a little gruff but I know there’s a soft side to you too.”

“‘Sounds like an asshole,” Katsuki murmurs and Izuku chuckles loudly.

“He was, but I kinda liked that about him. Guess I’ll always have a soft spot for the ones that are hard to get,” Izuku replies wistfully and Katsuki can hear the sad smile in his voice; if he closes his eyes, he can see it.

“Forget him,” Katsuki grumbles, clearing his throat and shifting uncomfortably in his desk chair. “Losers like him ain’t shit.”

Izuku laughs again and this time all the sadness Katsuki could hear from before is gone. “Yeah. Don’t worry, I’m making better friends now.”

“Damn straight,” Katsuki returns, trying to sound encouraging even while struggling to calm the waring emotions curling painfully in his chest.

“Thank you, K. I couldn’t do this without you.”

——————————————

One day, Katsuki’s running home late from class and rushes past the rundown convenience store by his apartment trying to make it back in time for Izuku’s usual call.

Katsuki didn’t mean to lose track of time, but it was exam week and slots for the study rooms at the library were hard to come by, causing him to miss his usual train. His only solution is to run home from the previous station.

Katsuki jogs past the store’s entrance display but stops when he hears his phone’s ringtone go off. He digs frantically in his bag, cursing until he finds it and answers.

“Hello?” he gasps into the phone, wiping at the sweat beading at his brow.

“Kacchan? Is that you?”

Katsuki stills, his breathing coming in short, quick bursts as he looks up like a deer in headlights to see Izuku standing just outside the store, grocery bag in one hand and the other holding a phone up to his ear.

It had been years since they’d seen each other face to face. Izuku is around his height now and has filled out, broad chest and long legs fitting snugly in jeans and a windbreaker.

Izuku’s hair is also shorter and while he still has those recognizable freckles across his face, he doesn’t look anything like the short, wimpy string bean Katsuki used to pummel into lockers.

“What are you-“ Izuku starts to ask, but notices the feedback on his phone and puts it together. His eyebrows draw together, jaw stiffening as a flash of emotions appears on his face. “You-You’re K?!”

TBC.

WHY AM I GETTING BAKUDEKU CONTENT

i don’t appreciate this, i don’t hate it, it’s cute but i prefer the sibling relationship and deku having no one thanks and have a nice day also where on earth did tumblr i was a bkdk shipper?

deku’s such a nerd in romance that it translates to nerd in hero work, i simply can not see him actually getting a partner. the bean would work day and night in hero work if he doesn’t die immediately. i’m sorry it’s just familial relationships for deku for me, no romance. salutations to y’all shippers though.

also i used to be a tododeku shipper until i saw pitviperofdoom’s qpr for them and decided that was better- am i projecting my aroace onto deku.

[makeste]

some meta about Izuku, Katsuki, and trust

and choosing to trust is the real bridge that goes to accepting that person as a part of your live again and what the offender has to earn. I think the interesting aspect of Deku and Bakugou's relationship is that Deku has always trusted Bakugou, and I would say more than he had forgiven him at the start of the story (where he does show more frustration and resentment towards Bakugou's behaviour and see him as a jerk) but despite that he can always trust Bakugou to him himself, attested to

the fact that Deku feels very confident about how Bakugou will act or what Bakugou's true motives are and probably the reason why he always sees Bakugou as a hero despite his hurtful behaviour is because Deku 100% trusts Bakugou even if he's doing something disagreeable or that will hurt him. Knowing someone and trusting is not exactly the same and I see it as trust because of Deku willingness to be co-operative. On Bakugou's side he is mistrustful of Deku and thats where the communication

breaks down and there has been plenty of meta exploring why Bakugou has deep rooted problems around Deku and his journey is him taking accountability of that and changing to be a better person. While understanding and miscommunication get their fair due I think trust and mistrust are the true bedrocks of the bkdk river bed because that allows for how they can still be so connected despite the miscommunication (with Bakugou mistrust is mixed with some trust) because of knowing.

anon I really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing your thoughts! I concur with just about all of this, and this ask got me thinking a lot about the nature of trust, and how it applies to Izuku and Katsuki’s relationship.

I think a lot of people’s reactions to reading the sentence “Bakugou and Deku have always trusted each other” would pretty much be, “???” and “lol what.” like, yeah, sure. they trusted each other so much that Bakugou decided that throwing a tantrum for ten years would be an appropriate reaction to Deku trying to hold his hand. classic Trust, right there!!

lol but I honestly think this is true, though. it’s just that there are different... levels?? types?? of trust. let’s go with types. there are different types of trust, and what makes Izuku and Katsuki’s relationship so interesting to me is that it’s kind of the opposite of what these fictional rival-type relationships usually are. it’s basically the difference between knowing, and understanding.

okay so first of all let’s back up here to make sure we’re all on the same page. we’re defining trust as “firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone”, which is the Oxford Language definition and which works pretty well for me. you’ll note, btw, that the current relationship between Katsuki and Izuku more or less meets all four of these criteria.

reliability - both boys regard each other as dependable and are willing to rely on each other in a pinch (although Izuku is currently having some difficulty with that, but that’s another topic for another day).

truth - both are honest with each other, though not completely honest (this is the aspect that Katsuki still needs to work on, as he’s currently hiding his desire to atone).

ability - neither of them have any difficulty with this. Izuku admires Katsuki’s ability so much that he’s made it his own gold standard since childhood, and Katsuki respects Izuku���s ability enough that he made him his main rival, and never doubted that Izuku was qualified to receive OFA and become All Might’s heir.

strength - as with ability, this is another aspect of trust that neither of them has ever struggled with. in fact, a lot of their relationship struggles happened specifically because Katsuki never doubted Izuku’s strength, but feared it because he didn’t understand it.

so yeah. there’s a lot more trust between them than most people realize, I think. but the thing is that the type of trust they have is based more on knowing than understanding, and that’s where so much of their conflict stems from.

when I say knowing, I’m talking about the kind of awareness that comes from familiarity and experience. this is the type of trust that’s difficult to take shortcuts with, because it mostly just has to be accumulated over time. this is all about learning what someone is like through observing them and being around them. and it’s just as much about being known as well, because at the same time that you’re learning who the other person is, they’re learning about who you are. and that’s where trust starts to work its way in. it’s the slow unveiling of who you are, and laying it on the table piece by piece over time. and every time another little piece of you is revealed and accepted, and every time you accept one more piece of who the other person is in turn, that trust increases a little bit more. this type of trust takes a long, long time to build up, but in exchange the foundation it creates is pretty much rock-solid and nigh-indestructible.

understanding, on the other hand, to me is more instinctual. it’s about empathy and insight. and the interesting thing is that it’s possible to know someone for years upon years, and yet never truly understand them. and on the flip side, it’s also possible to understand someone within minutes of meeting them, even if you know almost nothing about them. if “knowing” is about learning who someone is, I would say that “understanding” is about learning why they are who they are. this type of trust isn’t necessarily always mutual, but it does necessitate forming a connection with someone. because empathy is such a critical component of it, it’s basically impossible to understand someone and not form an emotional connection to them in some way. this type of trust can be far more powerful and intense than the “knowing” type of trust, but the flip side is that it can sometimes be less stable and easier to break.

I think that the majority of fictional relationships, especially the ones that become really popular ships, are based more around the latter type of trust because of its intensity and unpredictability and potential for story development. the thing is, both of these types of trust are necessary for a good ship (and when I say “ship”, I’m talking about both romantic and platonic relationships just fyi). if neither type of trust is present on at least some level, then there’s really no foundation to start building up the relationship. so most of the time a ship will start out with one or the other, and then over the course of the story they'll work on building up whichever one was lacking.

and because of how stories work, the majority of the time we’re going to be dealing with characters who at first don’t know each other all that well. and so the relationships we get are ones where the characters first form some kind of emotional connection that builds understanding, and then over time they start to learn more about each other and build up that kind of trust as well. I feel like 90% of ships have this kind of dynamic. it’s the basis for things like enemies-to-lovers, fake dating AUs, and basically any kind of trope in which the characters get stuck somewhere and are forced to spend a lot of time together. it’s good, and it works.

but the fascinating thing about the relationship between Izuku and Katsuki, though, is that it’s actually the exact opposite of this. the premise of Izuku and Katsuki's story is that these are two people who’ve known each other their entire lives, but have almost no understanding of each other whatsoever. they know almost every little detail about each other, so much that they hardly even think about it. but all of their conflict is based on the fact that understanding between them is basically nonexistent.

and to me this is such an intriguing dynamic. the two of them know each other like the back of their hand. they’re familiar with the smallest habits. they can predict each other’s actions. they know how the other person thinks. and they have the kind of trust that comes with having seen the other at both their best and their worst. Katsuki is capable of letting his guard down around Izuku in a way he doesn’t do around anyone else. he cries in front of him on multiple occasions. he lets Izuku call him “Kacchan” long after their other childhood friends have stopped doing so. and even though he fears and resents Izuku’s strength early on, he also subconsciously acknowledges it in ways that even he doesn’t realize (e.g. “don’t you dare get into U.A.,” rather than “you can’t get in” or “you won’t get in”). he knows Izuku.

but he doesn’t understand Izuku. he knows who he is, but he doesn’t understand why. he knows that Izuku is strong, but he can't wrap his head around the nature of that strength. and because he lacks that understanding, this vital aspect of the trust between them is lacking, and is all too easily broken when Katsuki falls into the creek and Izuku tries to offer his help. Katsuki knows that Izuku is a good person, but he doesn’t understand that goodness, that selflessness, and so he’s mistrustful of it.

on the flip side of the coin, however, Izuku has the utmost faith in Katsuki. to him, Katsuki is the strongest, smartest, most capable and most amazing person in the world (aside from All Might). and Izuku, unlike Katsuki, actually does understand his childhood friend at least a little bit. he understands Katsuki’s reasons for wanting to be a hero. he understands that Katsuki is not just mindlessly pursuing strength. he understands that Katsuki’s motivation is about overcoming obstacles and beating challenges. and most importantly, he understands that Katsuki, in spite of everything he’s said and done to Izuku over the years, is fundamentally a good person.

and this is crucial. because, along with the bond of familiarity they’ve built up together over the years, it’s this other, one-sided bond of understanding that is responsible for their relationship enduring for as long as it did despite everything. as you put it, anon, Izuku’s trust is ultimately what becomes the bridge between them. on some level, he trusts in Katsuki’s innate goodness. he believes in it in spite of all of Katsuki’s attempts to persuade him otherwise. e.g. when Katsuki suggests that he go jump off the roof, Izuku is hurt by the words, but he never once takes them to heart, because he knows on some instinctive level that Katsuki doesn’t mean them. and so he grumbles to himself about Katsuki needing to think before he speaks, but aside from that he never gives the words another thought.

Katsuki would no doubt consider this yet another example of Izuku not caring enough about himself or taking himself into account. but it really is more than that. the reason the words don’t cut deep in spite of them being vicious and well-targeted is simply because Izuku knows that Katsuki isn't truly that cruel. and he knows that on a level so deep that Katsuki is never able to break it despite his best efforts. he can’t break it, because there’s nothing to break, because it’s true. the reason the relationship endures in spite of everything is because deep down Katsuki is fundamentally a good person, and so Izuku’s trust, in the end, is based on truth. and so it never fully breaks, and eventually, it becomes reciprocated.

and that’s what their story is all about. it’s two people that have known each other their entire lives, but have to work in order to build their understanding of each other. unlike many ships, they start off already having that foundation of knowing and being known, and so their story instead is about forging that connection of empathy and insight. and it doesn’t come easily to them at all. but they keep at it.

anyway, so thank you again for sharing your thoughts on this, anon. I didn’t even get into the topic of forgiveness, but I agree with you about it being a process of letting go of negative feelings and resentment. I also agree that forgiveness is a separate thing from trust, but I do think trust plays a big part in one’s decision to forgive or not forgive. it's a lot easier to forgive if you have an understanding of the other person’s actions. and it’s also far, far easier to forgive if the offender’s actions are long in the past. and because the latter is now true in Katsuki’s case, that shows a pattern of him learning from his mistakes and not repeating them. which further builds trust, especially in the “reliability” department. and so even though forgiveness and trust are two separate things, they’re still connected. and in many ways, by working to rebuild the understanding between him and Izuku, Katsuki is also working towards earning Izuku’s forgiveness, even though that’s ultimately something that can never truly be earned, but can only be granted.

I’m not sure if I’m really making my point very clear here lol, but basically what I’m trying to say is that while the relationship may have once been one-sided in this aspect, it’s not anymore. it’s mutual, and they’re both putting the work in. and Katsuki is also doing his part without any guarantee or expectation of forgiveness on Izuku’s end. it’s unconditional. he’s doing it because he wants to atone. and he’ll continue to do it whether he’s forgiven or not. and that’s important. it’s important because it shows that the relationship has value to both of them. and it’s important because neither of them wants to lose it. they want to fix it; they want to make it stronger.

and ultimately what that means is that the relationship will continue to endure, despite their ups and downs. because even though it may have started out as something incidental -- two boys who just happened to become friends because they spent a lot of time together as children -- it’s not, anymore. it’s no longer just something that happened, something that just accidentally came together. it’s something that they’re both working to build. they want to trust each other. they want to understand one another. their relationship is no longer something that simply withstood and persisted -- it’s something that is now being nurtured. and you love to see it.

so let's see, how do I even begin to tl;dr this post lol. something something blah blah blah trust, understanding, childhood friends, knowing someone, having faith in someone, being the recipient of that faith, and working to become worthy of it. they're very confused, but they care about each other a lot, and they are good boys.

It’s most definitely not an enemy to lover! If it was it would probably be better written. Thank you so much I have never felt such disdain before but it isn’t like me to be critical or spiteful. It’s just not in my nature but this ship and Bakugou REALLY push it. It likely it only got like this because of the fact Bakugou keeps some how reaching number 1. Not helped that I noticed many of the BakuDeku fans fell off the series wagon or are only anime. Mostly consuming media so most of their Bakugou love isn’t actually canon. The most damning thing about Bakugou is that he be better as a antagonist to Izuku not this protagonist. If they worked that angle it be so much better but also thank god during that ‘apology’ Izuku rejected being on first name basis with him. At least Horikoshi was able to keep him from actually forgiving despite the apology. Don’t know where people got the whole he forgives him he only accepted the apology. Accepting isn’t forgiving and Bakugou risking his life once is a start but doesn’t make up for everything. It’s a start of a conversation not a true redemption until Bakugou actually starts trying to be a better person! But status quo and all that ruining a good thing ugh. Like at least Endeavor dealing with consequences where Bakugou consequences!?!? (Thank you for letting me vent I really appreciate it.)

Yeah a lot of bakugou stans and bkdk shippers dont even follow the manga, or just read the chapters in which bakugou shows up, because they hope for bkdk crumps they can spam the main tag with it. There is a reason why the old bnha leaker always had to put the "no bakugou in this chapter" warning every fucking time in the leaks, so the stans wouldnt rant over what a waste of time the chapter was!

I disagree with izuku accepting bakugkus apology! He neither accepted it nor did he say one word about forgiving bakugou later after he returned to ua. Izuku still hasnt said anything regarding the apology, didnt even reacted to it, because he was simply in no right mental condition to process what bakugou said! He was tired, he was hurt and hungry, he was sad and angry he was absolutely not in the right mind! Bakugou choose the moment for his apology in which izuku was not mentally ready to react properly to it. Lost his consciousness the very next moment! The apology was not for izukus sake, it was for bakugous! If it had been for his sake, bakugou would have choosen a privat moment under 4 eyes after izuku was mentally stable enough again to react properly to it and not under the eyes and ears of their whole class, who have no idea what actually happened between the two! For gods sake they all think what bakugou did to izuku was giving him mean names, not one of them has any idea HOW BAD it was and HOW LONG the abuse lasted! A WHOLE DECADE! The same length as shotos abuse from his father! But hey only one of this things is a crime, not the other, because of bakugous age! Sorry to tell his stans that, but with 15/16 you are old enough to get the difference between right and wrong! And he needed over 10 years for an "apology" that at the end was only done out of his selfpity! Because he felt bad for HIMSELF, not for his victim! He wanted it to be done and move on and he was most likely sure izuku will think the same way, because thats how izuku always was! But fact is izuku neither accepted the "apology" nor has he forgiven bakugou yet! The question is more if hori will go deeper with it, or if he just wanted the apology to be done to please bakugou haters, but choose to do it in the most terrible and disrespectful way possible!

When it comes to endeavors arc Im more neutral. Im by no means an endeavor fan, but I can see that he is at least really trying to be a better hero and more important to be a better father. Unlike bakugou stans who will attack his haters, I would never attack endeavor haters, simply because I respect their opinion and view, even if I may not completly agree with them! What both endeavor and bakugou did is for many people very personal. Its absolutely disrespectful to say what happened to shoto was more terrible then what happened to izuku! Shoto was abused by his father, while izuku was abused by bakugou, bullied by his whole class and even the teachers and shunned out by society for being born different then the rest! Both is EQUALLY terrible! Both izuku and shoto were almost still babys when the abuse startet and both had to live a whole decade with it!

And yes at least endeavor in facing the full consequences of his actions! Some people will say its not enough, but at least there is something! We bakugou haters have to live with the possebility that bakugou will never have to face anything, simply because of his crazy fanbase!

42. They knock on your apartment door instead of your neighbor’s would be so cute for bkdk!!

send me a writting ask

42. They knock on your apartment door instead of your neighbor’s

Todoroki calls out from the front door. “I’m heading out to work now. Wish me luck.”

“Thank fucking god.” Bakugou grunts in a huff, still focusing on folding the cooked tamago egg on the skillet. “Don’t come back.”

“Thank you. I will do my best.” Todoroki offers back, while snuggly wrapping his scarf around his neck.

“Oi,” Bakugou beckons to Todoroki, “Check you got everything.”

“I’m running late. I’ll be okay.” He says, before closing the apartment door shut from behind.

Lifting his ego roll onto his awaited breakfast plate, Bakugou rolls his eyes. The damn bastard. He expects his roommate to run up the stairs back, looking for the one thing he always forgets to bring.

It’s what Bakugou calls ‘The Half-N-Half Curse’. No matter what he was leaving for, if Todoroki doesn’t double check, he will always be missing at least one thing he needs.

Getting the mail? He forgot to bring the key. Going to work? He didn’t put on his tie. Grabbing groceries? He has only one shoe on. Hell, just stepping outside for some fresh air, and Todoroki needs a damn shirt on.

Kirishima and the rest of their friends just thinks he’s a bit forgetful, but Bakugou knows fucking better. It’s a shitty curse, rooted from their new apartment complex, that fortunately haunts Todoroki, instead of him.

So, when there’s a tentative knock on his front door, Bakugou shakes his head, clicking at his tongue. Of fucking course. He told the idiot to check, and now, look at where he is; back.

Bakugou purposefully takes his sweet ass time. Turning off the stove slowly. Washing his hands in the sink. Dabbing his hands dry with a paper towel. Tossing the paper towel away. Fixing his tank top on his shoulders. And, finally, he walks over to the front door, with ease.

He fits in a good, long yawn, before opening the apartment door. “What did I fucking tell you-”

The words die in his throat. Instead, abrupt confusion floods his mind.

“U-Uh,” The stranger feebly voices, blushing, looking away and seemingly hiding behind the pizza box in his hands. “Delivery?”

Bakugou can only blink back. Stare right at the short, freckled guy, fitted in red and yellow, and capped with ‘Almighty Pizzeria’ on his hat. Green curls spill over his face, crowded in the small hat.

“I didn’t order a pizza.” Bakugou states.

Now, it’s the other guy’s turn to look confused. “H-Huh?” He quickly scans over his pizza box in his hands, where a receipt is taped across it.

Bringing his fingers, noticeably scarred, the delivery guy stares openly at the paper. “It says at the U.A Heights, sir.”

That is the apartment complex. But, nevertheless. “I didn’t order a damn pizza.”

Green doe-eyes look up at him, worried. “Are you not Apartment Room 218?”

It takes a second too long to reel Bakugou back to the question. Those damn big eyes almost had him fucking hypnotized, for fuck’s sake.

Besides, the biggest surprise is that he is indeed Room 218. What the actual fuck?

“..Did someone buy that shit for me?” He asks, more to himself.

“Oh no. It’s not paid, sir.” The guy responds.

“What the-?!” Bakugou finally takes the time to look down at the guy’s shirt, reading over his name tag. He glares back at him. “You’re fucking telling me that even though I didn’t order this, I need to still buy this?”

The tag read ‘Midoriya Deku’. Whatta shitty name.

Whatever, right now, Midoriya’s looking like a deer in the headlights, utterly lost. “I-I wouldn’t know. I only started last month, and I’ve never had this situation arise.” He stutters out. “I would think you still need to pay, since it’s to your address, though.”

“I ain’t paying for this!” Bakugou uproars outright.

“Sorry, I just don’t know!”

“What even is this pizza?!”

Once again, Midoriya glances down at the receipt. “..It’s a Hawaiian pizza, with sardines, instead of ham, and extra added olives.”

“Oh, I’m definitely not paying for that fucking disgusting shit!” That’s the worst combination he’s ever heard in his fucking life. And, Todoroki has the weirdest ones.

“Um,” Midoriya starts weakly, “..Are you positive you didn’t order this?”

“Of course I’m fucking sure! You think I’m a damn liar?!”

Hurriedly, Midoriya shakes his head. “No, no!” He exclaims, “I’m just as confused as you are!”

Then, the weirdest, most insane thought erupts in Bakugou’s thoughts.

Holy shit, did Todoroki order a pizza, and completely forget about it?

“..Do you got the name on that stupid reciept?” Because, Bakugou swears if he hears Todoroki’s name, he will gladly stomp his way to his office company, and scream bloody murder in front of all his collegues.

Midoriya swiftly nods, pointing his finger down at the receipt. “It says it was ordered by Kaminari!”

Oh.

Oh.

“Can I see that paper?” Bakugou lowly voices.

When Midoriya hesitatingly tilts the pizza box to Bakugou’s direction, that’s when Bakugou finally realizes that no, Todoroki wasn’t the biggest idiot he’s ever met.

This Midoriya guy was the biggest idiot he’s ever met.

Todoroki Shouto. You have been dethroned. Lucky bastard.

Easily, Bakugou points directly at it. “It says Room 213.” He states slowly, “The three was never an eight.”

And, just as slow, Midoriya brings the receipt back to his face, eyes scanning all over it.

Bakugou knows when he sees it, the moment those same pretty, green eyes grow as wide as saucers. “O-Oh god.”

“Yeah.” Bakugou crosses his arms. “That shit was never mine. It’s my neighbor’s, down the hall.”

And, the next time he meets up with that Dunce Face, he’s going to have to explain what the hell is that shitty pizza order. That within itself deserves prison.

Regardless, that’s not the real issue here. Midoriya’s face is blooming a deep red, as he steps back. “I-I’m so sorry!”

Quickly, he grabs a card from his front pocket, and offers it wholeheartedly towards Bakugou. “H-Here! I completely did not mean to cause you this total inconvenience! If you are ever interested, u-use this to get yourself any large pizza, free!” He stutters out in one breath.

Raising a brow, Bakugou grabs a hold of the card, their fingers brushing. He tries to ignore the small jolt he felt in his hand, as he inspects the coupon.

‘ALMIGHTY PIZZERIA: FREE LARGE PIZZA, THREE TOPPINGS’.

“Thanks..”

“I’ll take my leave now.” Midoriya does a long bow over Bakugou’s direction. “Thank you for your help, and I apologize again for the mix up.”

God, there was no reason to do that type of bow. It was just a stupid misreading. “Yeah, yeah. Just don’t go knocking the wrong tree.” He waves absentmindedly.

He’s about to close the door, before he hears a cough from Midoriya’s end. “A-Also,” He mumbles, head still down and low, “I suggest you wear pants, next time, sir.”

Bakugou furrows his brows. He takes a look down at his legs, and unbeknownst to him, he had been in his damn, tight ass briefs, the entire time.

Slamming the door shut, Bakugou feels a hot flush erupt in his face.

Goddamnit. He had forgotten to put on some stupid pants, out of all things.

‘The Half-N-Half Curse’. It’s taken him as a victim now.
