#it's hot as hell in here || Kozu

[baratiddyappreciator]

Baki boys with afab reader who had abs or just muscles

Simping hard is the short answer, but that's not what you're here for lmao.

Baki:

The first time you take your shirt off or show your muscles in any way, shape or form he almost breaks his own neck trying to get a proper look at you. He knew you were a bit more toned than Kozue, but he had no idea you were absolutely ripped.

He's got abs, he knows he does and he thinks they're pretty cool, but he doesn't really care that he has them. Yours, on the other hand? He could stare at the all day and never get tired. They're the greatest things in existence.

He'll beg you to come with him to train so he can see what you're doing that might be different than what he's doing. Do you want a spotter? There he is. Want someone to count your reps? He'll do that too! Honestly, you'll need to remind him to also work out or else he'll just watch and help you the entire time.

He'll take you to the arena once or twice and basically peacock around you so the others can see how stunning you are, you're the prettiest person out there in his eyes and nothing can change that for him, so he's going to show you off to the other fighters.

Hanayama:

He's seen a lot of muscular people, but it's different when you're dating someone that fit, because normally he doesn't care, but with you he just can't get enough. The first time he sees your arm muscles his brain stalls because hot damn bby, those are nice.

Your abs are nice, but so are his. He'll subtly compete with you to see whose abs maintain the best forms. So what if he'll subtly flex the entire time so he can win? That's the point of having abs if you can't look at them?

Try all you want, but your hands will never be as muscular as his. He's got big, thick meaty hands, and that extends up into his wrists. You try and hold his hand and it's just all muscle and tendons. He feels strong, and unfortunately for you, wheter you're amab or afab, you're never gonna be able to get to that level.

You want to go to the arena with him whenever he's going? That's fine. He's proud of you, so he doesn't mind showing you off a bit, especially to Baki or Chiharu. Those are his buddies, and them being able to see the hottie he bagged waltzing around the arena like you own the place is affirming to him.

Chiharu:

You take off your shirt once and he starts full-on licking your abs. No hesitation, no asking for permission. He sees your abs and he's on em. He's got his hands on your hips, and his tongue on your stomach.

He just??? Licks you??? All the time. He doesn't stop. Showing your shoulders off? Lick. Showing your bicep off? Lick. Abs? Lick. Lats? Lick. He's not going to stop licking you because you're just so damn tasty.

He's more than happy to help you workout. You want some weights? Sure thing baby, he has those, he can get some more for you too! You wanna go on a run! He'll book it ahead of you so the route is completely empty for you to enjoy on your own.

He knows you can take care of yourself, those muscles aren't just for show, but hot damn does he not want to put you in a situation where you might be forced to protect yourself, so going with him to the arena or to a gang related matter is off the table.

Katsumi:

YES! HELL YES! Curves? You got em. Muscle? You got em. You'll find him staring at you when you get undressed, drooling. He is looking very respectfully.

You wanna work out? He can work out. You can both workout together!! He has access to a gym, the dojo, anywhere you wanna go, whatever you wanna do, he's doing it with you.

He's gonna grab your hips and hold you close whenever there's something he doesn't like nearby. Is there a shady person around the corner of an alley? He'll hold you close and glare at him until he leaves. You're his pookie, and you might fully well be able to kick some ass, but he's going to make sure you don't have to.

You want to go to the underground arena? It'll take some convincing, but he will eventually take you, if only so you can see him fight and show off.

Jack:

Honestly, he's the most normal about it. You're buff, cool. Good on you, he is proud of you and your work, but like, he's also buff. He's fucking huge. This only means he might be a bit more open to being a bit rougher with you.

You wanna wrestle? Oh he'll wrestle. You'll see that mischievous glint in his eye only seconds before he tackles and pins you to the ground. Will he get up? No, silly, you wanted to wrestle, so you can push him off of you.

You wanna work out? That's something he'll agree with regardless. Honestly, the easiest way to bond with him is to spend time with him while he's working out if only because he does it so often. He's a fantastic gym partner.

You wanna go to the underground arena? Hell no. You're going to have to prove to him that you can protect yourself first, and even then, there are rules that he needs you to follow. He loves you, but if anything happens to you, he'll never forgive himself.

Kosho:

He's oddly quiet and pensive. He's staring straight into your soul really. You're so pretty, he can't help it. Ignoring the muscle, he finds you stunning regardless of how you look, but knowing that you're strong too? That just does something for him.

You wanna work out? He'll work out with you. You can go and bench press comfortably while he meditates in the corner and does some stretches.

He'll just randomly walk up and grab your stomach. Just full-blown wrapping his arms under yours, hands on your abs kinda grab. He likes touching you, and when it's someone else's abs, he can see why people like them so much.

You want to go to the arena? Him too babes, just give him the chance to train a bit more so he can make a comeback. He promises it won't take too long.

Kureha:

He wants to study you. Not in a creepy way or anything, he just wants to look at your muscles and really see how it compares to his own. Really, he knows the differences, but seeing it in person does something to him.

He sees your workout regime and then the next day he gets you another one, one that he said will yield maximum results, and he's not wrong, but it's a really heavy workout.

He's the type to just grab your arm and start tracing your veins. Just worked out? He's tracing all of the little raised veins in your arm up until your shoulder. He's playing with your fingers too.

You want to go to the arena? Sure, he'll swing by next time Jack's fighting and he'll bring you along. He'll just say that he's there to treat the wounds after the fight, it's the perfect cover.

Retsu:

Looking very respectfully, but he's embarrassed to admit that he's looking. It's just a body, he's got no reason to be acting like you're a fresh body of water after a draught, but it's your body and he can't help himself but think that you're just so beautiful.

He has a habit of rubbing your abs after a while. Just laying together in bed or on the couch? His hand is under your shirt, tracing up and down your abs with little nothings.

Workout plan? Done. Meal plan? Done. Meal prep? Done. Leave it all to him, he'll make sure that you have everything you need for your workouts.

A bit hesitant to let you go to the arena, but he won't stop you from joining him. He loves your company, he's just worried you'll find one of the others more suitable than him.

Doppo:

He'll poke you in one of your few soft spots and tease you a bit, but it's in a "oh, you missed a spot! Time to work on your glutes a bit more!" in that highly sarcastic tone he's used a few times.

He likes training alone, but he doesn't mind watching you workout or train when he isn't doing so. He'll bring you water, a snack, and a towel, give you a quick kiss and off he goes to start training himself.

He likes your back. He likes running his hands on your back, for a reason he can't quite understand or tell. He just thinks the softness of your skin and the hardness of your muscles contrasts so interestingly, he can't help it!

You can go to the arena if you want, why wouldn't you be able to do that? He can protect you if you need him to, and he knows you can protect yourself. The arena is a natural place to want to be in his world, and he's happy to include you in that.

22. stuck together with midoriya 😁☝🏽

ᴀᴜᴛʜᴏʀ'ꜱ ɴᴏᴛᴇ: this was supposed to be headcanons oh well. Hope you like it <3 ᴡᴀʀɴɪɴɢꜱ: Izuku and (y/n) being simps ʀᴇᴀᴅᴇʀ: female ɢᴇɴʀᴇ: fluff + troped

Izuku had never been one for "(Y/n) moments". The thought of having one was so lost to him, so incompressible that he dedicated journal's worth to deciphering the puzzling issue that was the "(Y/n) moment". That is why he found it ironic that he was in one himself after trying to decipher the moment. It was in a hero's mission when this particular moment happened. He was tasked to save people inside a building on the brink of collapse. With speed and elegance, he managed to save most of the people inside... All except you. The building showed signs of coming down and the count of letting anyone die on his account, and with that knowledge in his mind, he ran back to save you.

You were only a worker, someone of no importance to anyone besides you. That's why you thought as you ran through the slowly imploding building that you were to die here. It was such a fit for people like you, unknown to the world. The smoke was rising more quickly as chunks of the building starts falling. Strength was leaving you, as you become more and more sluggish.

"Hello! IS ANYONE THERE!" you heard a voice call down through the smoky haze of smoke. You thought no one was coming, no one was here to save you, but there was someone. The last thing that you thought before you passed out

When you come to the first thing you see is a pair of emrald green eyes staring at you in a concerning manner. Pulling yourself up a flash of pain through your right side, bright and hot.

"Hey hey hey... Are you okay?" the man helps you up, making sure no vital points are hurt.

Your head clears as toy sit up, taking in your surroundings. The dust seemed to settle, as you hear the sound of sirens echo all around you.

As your vision cleared, you realized what happed. The front of the building caved in. You were now stuck.

“They said they’ll have us out of here in a couple hours, no worries.”

“A couple of hours? How long has it been already?”

“Maybe 30 minutes, the shock must have took you out for longer than you expected,” the green-haired man beside you gave a soft smile and continued “Seeing that we”re going to be here a while, we should get to know each other. I’m Izuku Midoriya, Pro-Hero Deku! What’s you name?”

You had heard about the number one hero from the news, how he was always so kind to others even when they didn’t deserve it. Was that the kindness that saved you today?

“I’m (Y/n)” you say bluntly, ready to leave this hell hole. But the pro hero beside you would not let up. And for the next couple of hours the two of you sat and talked about everything and anything. And the more the two of you talked the closer you became.

He wasn’t like anyone you’ve ever met before. It was weirdly funny, being put at the forefront of death and coming out attracted to you’re savior. Wait was this Stockholm Syndrome? It felt like it.

Eventually, the two of you got out. And as you stumbled towards the light, the only thought running through your mind was

I want to see him again.

[felswritingfire]

Relationship Headcanons (SFW)

Kaioh Retsu:

I'd like to start this off that he'd be really picky with his partner. Like, super picky not because he means to- it's just diffcult for him to be genuinely attracted to someone enough to pursue a relationship with them.

Looks aren't all that important to him, but personality is an extremely important aspect. He prefers people that are a tad more outgoing, but knows when to reign in their excitableness- that being said he also really likes shyer people as well; he thinks that they're very cute (what I'm getting at is that I high-key headcanon him as Pansexual-)

Before he got with you, he made sure that you understood his fighting career and how dangerous it could be. He'd leave it up to you if you'd like to pursue a relationship after he tells you, but he'll respect your decision if you say no. But he will be e l a t e d if you say yes

Away from that, though, when he does find a partner that he wishes to persue a relationship with- he is super, super sweet!

He's an extremely considerate and understanding partner and just really wants to prioratize you're comfort

If you want a more laid back partner, he is your man- there's barely any arguements in the relationship, and if there is anything bothering you and/or him, he'll bring it up in a conversation so you guys can talk about it

It takes him a bit to be completely open to physical affection, even when he does get used to it, he's still a soft maybe on PDA; he won't hesitate to hold your hand tho. He loves holding your hand. LOVES IT.

The first time he held your hand though, it was about 1 1/2 months into the relationship (no one else knew about your relationship prior to this), and Katsumi, Katou and Doppo almost shit themselves because "oH MY GOD, RETSU'S GOT A GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND/SIGNIFICANT OTHER! RETSU'S GOT A GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND/SIGNIFICANT OTHER! RETSU'S GOT A GIRLFRIE-/BOYFRIE-/SIGNIFICA-" (and yes, I have a feeling these three have just enough dumbass bastard vibes enough to chant this)

Retsu was red for a week because these guys are (lovable) assholes. And Katou gets socked in the face because he just straight up went: "So, you bend them over ye-" and then he got a broken nose

On a different note, he's really touchy-feely in private

HE LOVES COOKING FOR YOU

And if you can cook- then, baby, it's partner cooking

You are 10/10 meeting his master, he's also excited when you guys get along

You also end up becoming well acquainted with the others (Katsumi, Doppo, Baki, Etc.) If you weren't already. And, boy, do you end up with some life long friends from that (and good training partners if you fight!).

Even if you do fight, he's protective of you. He'd try to sheild you from anything- even Yujiro if you, God forbid, caught his attention (this could be from just being a pretty face that appeals to him or a SUPER strong fighter that he wants to be his pray). This man is very ride or die.

If you're with him for the Convict Arc, and you are a skilled fighter, be prepared for the fact that he almost shit himself if one of them attacks you. It's their funeral if they end up hurting you- no matter how bad- they're dead.

Now you manage to fuck one of their shits up? He is both simultaneously worried about you, proud of you and being like: Oh shit that's hot-

Retsu doesn't get jealous. He gets mad if someone is trying to come onto you and making you uncomfortable and will not hesitate to get in their face. But not jealous. He's a man who is every comfortable with himself and the relationship. He wouldn't have started dating you if he had even the slightest inkling that you were going to cheat on him.

No matter how tall or short his partner is, he likes to rest his face on their chest.

Jack Hanma:

You two, MOST LIKELY, met a Restaurant- like, maybe you got stood up by some asshole and you just happen to notice this monster of a dude sitting at the table right next to you shoving an entire steak in his mouth, holy shit?????

When he catches you staring at him in bewilderment, he just gingerly dabs his mouth with his napkin and says, "What you've never see someone eat before?"

"Oh, I've seen that plenty of times- I've just never seen someone shove a whole steak into their mouth." You snark back.

He's honestly a little flustered on the inside, because yeah, you're right. But on the other hand, this (he thinks) is prime flirting time. So then you guys hit it off from there and by the end of the night you two have become friends and exchanged numbers.

If you have daddy issues too, prepare to bond over them, because he will not hesitate to bitch about his dad, because fuck that guy

Once you do get in a relationship, you realize Jack is a very quiet lover. He's calm and collected and he doesn't say much

But he listens and you know he does because he'll hum and grunt, stealing little glances at you if you're chattering away

He's really attached to you and is another extremely sweet partner

He's also really observant and will snag things that he knows you've been eyeing

Meeting his little brother is a must, you gotta meet Baki and be approved, which you most likely will be because Baki is a super sweet dude and he knows that his brother would pick an asshole to date

He dreads the day that his dad will meet you, because it'll happen inevitably, but he doesn't want you to happen

When it does happen I feel that it's a similar situation to Baki and Kozue, the only difference is is that Jack is hella pissed and on the verge of going ballistic, because what the fuck, dad???? ME AND MY S/O WERE HAVING A MOMENT, ASSHOLE-

He's a soft maybe on PDA, it reay depends on the time of day with him

When he is in a mood though, he'll hold your hand or wrap an arm around you to keep you close

He likes to lay his head in you lap at home and just stare up at you

You're the most beautiful thing he's ever seen

Likes to give you kisses on your cheek and forehead

He also likes to pick you up and carry you: you talking your friend? Sorry, baby, it's time to go. Shopping? I don't want to be here any more and I'm bored, let's go. My dad's here? TIME TO SKADDADLE, BABE.

He's huge, so I doubt your taller then him, but, hey, I might be wrong, but he really likes pulling you into him and holding you to his chest

He takes you out on dates to fancy resturaunts

He has some insecurities from whenever he was young, so when he gets jealous he gets HEATED

Like he is ready to kill a man, pls do not push his buttons when he's like this, just take him out of the situation and shower him in love snd affection because he worries he's not good enough

Please smooch him. He's sweet

If you're a fighter, he'll spar with you, but very gently, which may or may not piss you off tbh

But he means well

Absolutly head over heels for you

Hector Doyle:

Ok, I want to say, Doyle is a very tricky man who loves his teasing.

It'd be pretty "obvious", from his stand point, if he had a thing for you and wanted to pursue you. To you and everyone around you though, he just kinda comes off as,,,,a creepy dude???

Like, this poor guy has the shittiest time with... Personal interactions, unless it's fighting or social situations where he has a "word template" to go off of. He's just a real awkward dude and he kinda, low-key, has no tact sometimes; like when he just stares at you from across that Café you like to go to like some sort of freaky stalker guy planning to kill you. It doesn't help that you two bump into each other a lot and he just blurts out "You're hair looks really soft" BUT YOU TWO DON'T REALLY KNOW EACH OTHER AND WHY IS THIS DUDE TALKING ABOUT TOUCHING YOUR HAIR??????

When you two do, somehow, finally manage to talk to one another, he explains all the freaky stares and comments and he's like obviously I was flirting? Isn't that how it's done?

No Doyle. That is not how it's done.

Once you two manage to establish a relationship, it's kinda up to you to make a lot of the first moves again, Doyle is very ignorant to how social interaction works, this applies to relationship etiquette as well. That being said though, he has some sort of knowledge about how relationships work from books and shows, that also being said, his version of relationships is probably outdated because of the type of books and shows he watches/reads (Pride and Prejudice, The Great Gatsby, The Picture of Dorian Grey, etc.)

You gotta be prepared to put in the work to reap the rewards in this relationship-which are a lot actually!

For one thing, he is an extremely loyal partner and a really good listener (this not pertaining to the end of season 3, you know?) And he surprisingly has really good advice to offer

And! Once he figures out flirting, he's really good at it! He end up flustering you a lot, so be ready for that.

He's an unintentional hard yes on PDA. He just doesn't care. Your his and he's yours- he can smooch you when he wants. BUT, he is still really weary of this since he is a convict and he doesn't want you to be used against him. Or get hurt because of him. But he does end up touching you in whatever ways he can to be close to you: so, a slight bump of the hands her; maybe if you two are in a crowded enough bar, his hand caressing your lower back or resting in your back pocket; feet resting on top of one another under the table in the very back of that Café where no one can see you two-

At home it's a completely different situation- he likes to grab your hips and press you against the wall and just kiss the ever loving F U C K out of you; his hands will wonder and this usually leads to some fun times, but sometimes it just ends in some cute ass cuddles.

And might I just add on to the whole Convict part: he didn't tell you that he was a deathrow inmate until the fourth date. And he just brought it up casually, on the inside he was nervous as hell, but on the outside he's like, normal calm and collected Doyle (I mean, if you didn't already know).

Doyle gets jealous every once in a while, but it's still pretty rare, usually he just, kinda shooes them off. But, when those rare moments do occur, get ready for a blood bath because whoever thought it was smart enough to try and flirt with you is either getting a verbal beating of a life time or a physical one. And let me tell you, either one is crippling, one just means you can walk away in tears while the other you're most likely dead

After that mess Doyle'll drag your ass out of there and take you back to the apartment where he's even more touchy then usual.

He tries his absolute hardest to shield you away from the other convicts. He doesn't trust any of them and is so, so afraid one of them will do something to you.

Similarly with Retsu, even if you do fight he'll be protective of you, but he'll most likely be more relaxed about it if you can fight.

In that same vein, he'd totally spar with you. And if it gets heated that just means he manipulate it into some fun times ;)

Really like movie night as a date night. He's been exposed to so many mainstream shows/movies because of you, it's great.

Sikorsky:

THIS BITCH- THIS SUAVE BITCH-

He walked into wherever you were and pinpointed you, out everyone else in the room, as the hottest piece of ass in there. Waited for you to notice the heavy weight of a heated gaze on you, look up and make eye contact with him before he gives you this lazy smirk and saunters, easy, slow steps, with all the confidence of Apollo, over to you and leans against the wall with one arm and starts chatting you up. It doesn't matter if you're taller then him, you will feel small and a lil' intimidated/turned on.

I ain't gonna lie, you guys probably start out as a one night stand and became a friends with benefits after you fed him waffles in the morning after aforementioned one night stand and got to know each other, knowing Sikorsky- he just ends up coming to you every time he needs to blow off steam, which is, admittedly, a lot.

Sikorsky is a big ol' dumbass when it comes to the dreaded things called emotions, so he drops of the face of the Earth (at least to you) after he realizes how bad he's got it for you.

He pops up again after he had time to think about it and mull it over. And, would you look at that? He brought flowers and chocolate!

He's real shit at using his words to express himself, he's more of a actions type of guy, opposed to words, that doesn't mean can't be eloquently spoken, he just has a hard time when he's getting frustrated/experiancing heavy emotions; so gift giving is his go to as an apology!

He's actually a really observant lover due to this! He also remembers really important dates too!

He's really good with his hands so more often then not, he'll offer to give you a message after you had a long day at work, this sometimes leads to some sexy time; even if it doesn't though, his hands still feel amazing: they're rough and calluses, sure, but it sends such nice tingles down your back, you can't help but sigh.

He's really gentle when he holds your hands because he knows that his grip strength is off the wall and, he won't tell you, but he is terrified of hurting you.

Another hard yes on PDA but this time it's intentional. Sikorsky likes to prove his dominance over you, which may or may not lead to some arguements between you guys, and flaunt you relationship so he will openly shove his tongue down your throat to prove a point.

He has a tendency to grab your hips and press you flush against him, or even pull you onto his lap in resturaints, he'll whisper dirty things into your ear like this, so be prepared.

He likes to push your buttons once in a while because he thinks your hot when you're mad. He's a little shit and sometime has the mental fortitude of a 12 year old boy. It just comes with the territory of dating him, unfortunately

Sikorsky gets jealous easily and flies off the handle way too much, you'll have to really talk to him about that. But afterwards he'll drag you of there and, instead of making it to your guy's humble abode, he'll take you into the closest alleyway and start making out with you hard. It's almost too much, but it's kinda hot????

Anyway, Sikorsky may not seem like it, but he has your back. He wouldn't let anything happen to you without a fight. Even if you're a fighter.

SPEAKING OF IF YOU'RE A FIGHTER, SIKORSKY WILL FIND IT HOT AS F U C K. LIKE, TRY AND KICK HIS ASS, BABE, DO IIIIT

You will def. be his training partner, whomst he will smooch and smack your ass at any given opportunity

He likes to lay his head on your ads and straight up be like "don't fart, babe, or I'll slap your ass so hard that you won't be able to walk for a week" and you've never want to slap a man more in your life.

Matsuki

Rating: Teen-ish? Could be Mature if you wanted to really be serious about it Warnings: Cursing, adult suggestive conversation, pregnancy, labor, birth, very soft Bakugou, cute fluffy family things Genre: Fluff / Romance / Domestic / Family Words: 5,964

A/N: This is the first time I’ve ever written anything like this, and I was extremely nervous and anxious about how it turned out. It still makes me cry when I reread it, so I think it’s fine lol. Forgive anything that I got wrong, I did do a lot of research and watched a lot of labor and delivery vlogs to try and get this as accurate as I can. Since I haven’t had any children of my own, idk how to properly explain or express the feelings of it all. Hopefully I got close. Either way, I hope those of you that like Koge will enjoy~

“You’re shitting me.”

“I’m not Katsuki. I’m not shitting you, that just happened.”

The two lovers stared at each other as Koge stood in the hot clear liquid that had just cascaded down her legs, soaking her orange fluffy socks. Standing for a moment to relieve some pre-labor cramps had resulted in something more than what either of them was expecting that calm and chilly February day. Koge’s water had just broken, and the constant recurring pain she had been feeling the past few days finally made sense. Sure, they knew that it was going to happen at any moment since her due date had already passed them by a week ago, but that didn’t dull the shock any less. In fact, the shock was so severe that neither of them moved until Koge felt a sharp contraction, making her cry out and double over a bit, gripping the edge of the couch for support.

“Okay, Katsuki, it’s now! Right now!”

“Fuck!” Bakugou ripped off his gaming headphones, ignoring the confused grumbling of his friends as he tossed all game gear aside on the couch before leaping up. He was in and out of the bedroom with suitcases in hand faster than one would expect, not even bothering to change out of his pajamas. “Utsuro, you have the worst fucking timing with everything, I swear!”

Digging her nails into the couch, Koge glared at him as he dashed around to grab this thing and that item that they would probably need, though she didn’t care to keep track of what he was getting in her pained state. “Shut up, I can’t help it that I’m going into labor! Argh, oww! Hurry!”

“Don’t rush me, I’m going to forget something!”

“Then forget it! You can get it afterward!” With a moment of a dull pain, Koge waddled her way towards the door. “This isn’t a business trip, I’m about to pop! And rip your eyes out while I’m at it!”

Shrugging on a backpack and picking up a suitcase, Bakugou glowered down at his lover as she clutched onto him, having to stop again as she cried out in pain. “You tell me to be prepared, and then you threaten me when I’m trying to be.” He opened up the front door, leading her out at her pace. “What the hell do you want from me?!”

“Don’t yell at me, Katsuki!” As tears began to stream down her flushed face, Bakugou was immediately hit with a rush of confused feelings, unsure of how to handle any of this. Had he gone to all those stupid classes with her? Yes. Had he read all those stupid articles about how to handle this exact moment? Yes. Was he being calm and rational like they told him to be? No, not at all. How could he be? The woman he adored more than anything was crying, screaming and about to go through the most painful thing she would probably ever experience. Nothing he could have read or studied could prepare him for this. But, he knew he had to try to calm down, for her and their child. If she was upset, it would only make it all worse.

“Alright, alright, I’m sorry! C’mon, you’re doing good.” Encouragement seemed to work well to get her down the hall to the elevator, where she clutched onto the railing inside with both hands, leaning forward and breathing heavily.

“Katsuki, I want you to imagine-” A wince interrupted her, followed by a moment of deep breaths. “Someone shoving a watermelon up your ass. Not a small one, a fucking big one. Oooh, ow ow- And they shove it all the way up into your intestine. And force you to shit it out. Imagine that. Imagine it.”

Bakugou could only stand there in stunned silence for a moment, watching the numbers on the elevator decline. Never before had he heard her talk like this, and that was also a visual he never thought would be brought into his imagination. “Uhm… Utsuro, I don’t think that’s something I could imagine if I wanted to.”

“Did you know that there’s data that women have a higher pain tolerance than men just for this reason? Just for the act of pushing a tiny human through your vagina.”

“This is the longest elevator ride of my life.”

“Shut up, don’t chastise me! I’m spitting facts here.”

“You’re spitting nonsense. C’mon.” Right before the elevator stopped, Bakugou gently pried her off the metal bar, allowing her to clutch onto his arm instead with her iron grip. “Do you want me to walk you to the car or go get it?”

“We’ll be walking for an eternity, Katsuki. I can’t do it, I can barely stand.” Hiding her face into his upper arm, Koge walked beside him the best she could. “Just leave me. Leave me to suffer, you’re gonna hate me after this, anyways.”

With a roll of his eyes, Bakugou stopped at the entrance to the apartment complex, leaving her there with the suitcase. “It’s your turn to shut up, I’m not leaving you, stupid. Don’t move.” Before she could confirm or complain any further, he sprinted out the door at full speed to the parking garage where his car was waiting for him. Left alone, Koge sniffled and clutched at her swollen abdomen, leaning back against the wall.

She had been through pain before. She had bones broken, bruises, cuts and whatever else came with her profession. But this was something that she could never have prepared herself for. The daily cramps she had gone through were nothing compared to these, which were rolling through her body from a dull pain to a full-on contraction that almost crippled her to the floor. It was obvious to her now that these pains she had been feeling for the past couple of hours weren’t just the regular pre-labor cramps. She had been having contractions, and her water had just now broken. It was stupid of her to have not realized, and now she worried that she may have caused extra complications by not going to the hospital sooner.

As her worried lover returned to her, she clutched onto him tightly, struggling to walk through a strong contraction. “I’ve been in labor for hours and didn’t realize it, Katsuki, I’m so stupid!”

“You’re not stupid, don’t talk like that.” Bakugou got her into the front seat of the car that he had already leaned back, helping her buckle in. “Just… lay there and breathe, alright?”

“Take my socks off, please.” Koge struggled to speak between her hiccups and sobs, the way she looked up at him so pathetic he nearly felt like crying himself. “They feel gross and wet.”

Unable to help a small chuckle, Bakugou pulled her socks off as requested, before giving her a comforting kiss on the lips. “Anything you want. Any other requests before we drive off?”

“One more kiss.”

Bakugou gladly gave it to her, though it was cut short as she cried out, wiggling in her seat. “Okay, no more, time to go.” He shut the door and was in the car within seconds, speeding off at what traffic and the law would allow him. Now that he was sitting, he could finally feel how intensely he was shaking. Every inch of his body felt jittery, squeezing the steering wheel so tightly he feared he may just break it. He was nauseous, excited, scared, worried and just all around ecstatic. They had been preparing for this for months, and now their little man was finally going to be here. Still, they weren’t out of the woods yet. He knew that any number of things could happen to both Koge and the baby in the next few days, and though he tried to keep those thoughts at bay, he couldn’t stop them.

All he could do was try to think of anything else. Right now, all that mattered was getting her to the hospital as quickly and safely as he could.

“Katsuki,” Koge spoke between heavy breaths, hands still on her stomach. “Talk to me. Tell me a story.”

“A story? Like what?”

“I don’t know, just something! Something funny, I don’t care.”

“Fuck, uhm…” Bakugou glanced at her as she shifted about uncomfortably in her seat. “Do you remember right after I graduated, when I came to visit you in Eguchi’s studio and we started fooling around in the locker room?”

Nodding, a small smile broke Koge’s lips at that moment, though it couldn’t stand up against the need to wince with another rush of pain. “How could I forget that? Y-you were so handsy and excited, I don’t know why you were like that.” Becoming winded, she took a moment to breathe before she continued. “Why were you?”

“I think having watched you teach a class got me all riled up. But that wasn’t what I was getting at. Remember how loud Eguchi screamed when he walked in on us?”

“Oh!” With a laugh, Koge brought a hand up to cover her mouth, something she did when she got embarrassed. “He was so dramatic. We hadn’t even started doing anything yet, and he acted like we had just committed murder. ‘Don’t fornicate in my studio!’, he says.”

“Who the fuck uses ‘fornicate’ in a sentence seriously?”

“Seijirou, that’s who. Hypocrite, him and Doey probably-- ow, ow, ow damn it! Ah, they probably do way worse. Did you get my phone?”

Reaching into his pocket, Bakugou pulled out her phone and handed it to her. “See? I would have forgotten it if you had been in charge.”

“I am in charge! I’m gonna post online that I’m going into labor-”

“No, Utsuro-”

“- so everyone calls and shows up at once-”

“- don’t do that-”

“- it’s… baby… time!” She typed with furious speed, not giving him a chance to talk her out of it. “Boom, posted. Argh, damn it!” Letting out a heavy cry, she slammed her hand down onto the car door. “Baby time is pain!”

“We’re almost there, Utsuro, just- hey, get your foot off my dash!” Bakugou glowered at his lover as she simply put her other foot up as well. “What the fuck?”

“Shut up, it helps!”

“Damn it, you’re freaking insane right now.”

The rest of the trip to the hospital varied, from bickering to Bakugou trying to comfort her, to Koge begging for distraction in the form of stories or stupid conversation. What was only ten minutes felt like an eternity for both of them, and arriving at the hospital was even worse. Apparently, what Koge was feeling was only stage one of active labor, or that’s what the nurse that got her set up in the Labor and Delivery room called it. After a bit of running some tests and watching Koge’s contractions, they determined that her cervix was only dilated up to six centimeters, and she had another four to go before the birth would begin. Being the stubborn woman that she was, Koge declined the use of epidural, and so she was settled into the room to await the full dilation of her cervix.

Dressed in a gown now, Koge wandered about the room, as sitting didn’t help the pain at all. Bakugou was with her at all times, holding her hands and helping her with whatever she asked for, though it was more like commands. By now, Bakugou’s initial rush had faded, and he was able to think more clearly and calmly to better help Koge cope.

“C’mon, Utsuro, tell me. What do you think he’s gonna look like?”

Breathing heavily as a contraction passed, Koge held onto Bakugou’s hands tightly, leaning forward a bit with her forehead pressed into his chest. “Just like you… He’s going to be your little clone.”

“Same hair and eyes? Everything?”

“Yes.” As the pain subsided for a moment, Koge stood up straight, releasing his hands to instead clutch onto his shirt. Looking up at him, a smile crossed her lips as he gently moved her hair out of her face, releasing the sticky grip of sweat. “Just like you. I’ll have my two beautiful boys, my Katsuki and Matsuki. My fluffy-haired boys.”

With a small chuckle, Bakugou gave her lips a soft kiss, beginning to help her walk backwards again as she winced. “I think he’s gonna have white hair. My style, but your color.”

“No way. I grew him inside me, I know exactly what he’s gonna look like. And it’s gonna be exactly like you, won’t even be able to tell you apart when he’s an adult. Fuck, fuck, fuck that’s a good one, owww!” With his help, Koge squatted down, squeezing his hands tightly. “I hate this! No more babies, not ever!”

“Remember what you said, Utsuro, you always wanted three.”

“I want three without the pain!”

“Well, that’s not gonna happen if you want to birth them yourself. And you refused the pain meds, so you gotta deal with it.”

“Don’t smart-mouth me. I’ll rip your eyeballs out, I swear.”

Before Bakugou could comment, there was a knock on the door, before it opened up to reveal a nurse and some very unexpected company. “Some of your family has arrived, Ms. Naegi, would you like them to come in or wait in the waiting room?”

Peeking up and looking between Bakugou’s legs, Koge’s eyes instantly landed on her mother, who was looking at her with teary eyes. With Bakugou’s help, Koge stood, nodding to allow the nurse to let them in. “Yeah, if they’re family, they can come in. And if someone says their name is Kirishima. Hey, Mama!” Koge hugged her mother tightly as the petite older woman nearly ran up to her.

“Oh, my sweet baby! Are you sure you should be walking around right now, they told me you were almost at eight centimeters by now.” Stroking Koge’s back, she looked up at Bakugou, giving him a smile that greatly resembled her daughters. “Katsuki, you’re being so wonderful.”

“Well, Kozue, she has threatened to rip out my eyes a couple of times, so I have to behave. Not gonna lie, though, I seriously need to take a piss break. Especially before my parents show up, that’ll--”

“Katsuki! How dare you not call us when she went into labor! We had to find out from online!”

The sudden blaring voice of his mother instantly made Bakugou stop, glowering at Mitsuki as she barged in past the nurse to Koge’s side, who was now gripping the end of her bed and leaning forward with another strong contraction. Taking in a deep breath to keep himself from yelling, Bakugou instead looked at his father, feeling a bit of relief at the presence of a man who looked just as bewildered as he felt. Though, as he began to head towards him to hopefully take a break from the madness, Koge called to him, making him stop.

“W-wait, Katsuki, where are you going? Don’t leave me!” The panic and tears streaming down her flushed face made Bakugou’s heart drop, putting his arms around her as she stumbled over to him. “What if I have the baby while you’re gone! Don’t go!”

“Utsuro, you’re being overdramatic, I seriously just need to take a piss and get some air.” Bakugou coaxed her back towards the bed, helping his sobbing lover back up onto it. “What is all this, you’re going from anger to sadness in like three seconds.”

“But I need you! Pee in the pan, please don’t go anywhere. I can’t do this without you.” Instead of laying down, Koge grabbed a pillow, squeezing it tightly to her chest. “Ow fucking hell, I feel like I need to hit something!”

Kozue came to sit beside her daughter. “Koge, baby, let Katsuki go to the bathroom, me and Mitsuki are here for you. We won’t let him miss the baby, okay?” With a wave of her hand and while Koge was busy yelling into the pillow, Bakugou ducked out of the room, leaving the women to deal with the labor pains.

Another four hours went by like this until Koge was to the point that she couldn’t even stand to walk off the pain. By now, the nurse was always present, observing her condition and giving instruction to make sure that things were going as smoothly as they possibly could. Bakugou’s hand was permanently fixed into Koge’s, as she refused to let him go or let him out of her sight for more than a few minutes at a time. She was quite set on the fear that he would leave and then the delivery would happen without him, which was a thought that brought her to tears. Bakugou thought that it was ridiculous, but to keep her calm, he stayed by her side without question.

“Okay, Ms. Naegi,” The nurse began, having just finished with a test to check her dilation. “Looks like you’re at full dilation. You said you’re feeling the need to push, right?”

Koge nodded, sitting up as laying down was very uncomfortable. “Yeah, though it feels more like I have to take a giant shit.”

“That’s normal. Just keep breathing and if you feel the need to push, then you can. I’m going to get the doctor in here so we can start, okay?” With a gentle touch to her arm, the nurse left the couple alone, quietly ushering the parents out.

Once the door closed and they were completely alone, Koge looked up at Bakugou, the tears once again beginning to stream down her face. “It’s about to happen, Katsuki… Our little man is about to be here.”

Knowing that she wasn’t going to let his hand go, Bakugou brought his free one around to push her hair out of her face gently. “You’re doing great, Utsuro… Why are you crying?”

Squeezing his hand tightly as she had another contraction, Koge leaned her head back, wincing and gasping. “I-It hurts. But I’m so happy. Katsuki, you stay right there, I mean it.”

“I couldn’t move even if I wanted to, you’ve got a death grip on my hand right now. Hey, she said it’s alright to push, don’t hold it.” He stood from his chair as Koge did just that, leaning back against the propped up hospital mattress, her cries making his stomach churn. At any second, if he lost even a sliver of control, Bakugou knew that he would vomit. He was so anxious, so filled with a mix of nervous and happy energy that he could hardly take it. Yes, he knew that she was going through way worse, but since he wasn’t distracted by the pain, he was left to his constant worrying thoughts. It was to the point that nothing he did helped her anymore, and he hated to see her in such pain.

As she calmed for the moment, Bakugou knelt beside the bed which had been lowered to accommodate Koge’s height, before leaning forward to give her cheek a comforting kiss. One hand still on the top of her head, he stroked her hair softly, his nerves calmed for just a moment as she smiled up at him. With her tender touch, she stroked his cheek gently, giving a soft and content hum.

“My Katsuki… I love you so much. You mean the world to me.”

Bakugou wasn’t sure if it was her words or how nervous he was, but sitting with her like this filled him with such an intense emotion that he immediately felt like bursting into tears. This woman was his everything, his lover, his best friend and his reason for waking up in the morning. She was love, hope, pride, and beauty. She was his Koge, and out of everything he had ever done or said, she loved him. The burning that built up in his eyes and the way his vision blurred was enough to solidify how much he adored her, and before he could even come up with a response to her, the tears escaped him.

At first, shock crossed Koge’s flushed face before she began to cry again herself, latching her arms around his neck in a tight hug. Hiding his face into her shoulder, Bakugou caressed her petite body as carefully as he could, even though his emotions were so out of control he wanted to squeeze her. Sniffling and trying to clear out his now clogged senses, he struggled to speak, taking in a shaking breath.

“I love you, too. My Koge… More than fucking anything…” The thought of letting her go only made his boiled over emotions begin to steam, unable to pull himself away. “You can do this… We can do this.”

The feeling of her fingers through his hair calmed him enough to finally be able to sit up, his heart fluttering from the smile on her face. Cupping his cheeks softly, she wiped his skin of tears before pulling him in for a kiss. “We got this, Katsuki… Just… hold my hand and I’m sorry if I break your fingers.”

“Utsuro, you could break my arm and I wouldn’t give a shit.”

After a soft giggle, another kiss was shared before Koge suddenly became aware of the pain again, wincing and wiggling as she laid her head back. “Okay, okay Matsuki, I get it, you want all the attention!” In the moment that she cried out and went back to squeezing the life out of Bakugou’s hand, the door to the room opened. Four people came inside, one of them dressed head to toe in protective garb, including a splash mask to protect her eyes. They brought with them supplies, none of which Bakugou could make out, as he was more focused on what they were saying.

“Okay, Ms. Naegi, we’re going to start the delivery now. Keep pushing if you feel the need to while we get set up.”

“Heart rate and blood pressure are good.”

“Positioning is good, no current complications.”

In their practiced and rushed movements, Bakugou didn’t even notice the other person in the room until the familiar voice snapped at him, gaining his attention. “Katsuki, don’t look so emotionless and comatose!”

Glaring at his mother, Bakugou instantly felt his ears flush hot at the camera pointed at him, having not even realized she brought one. “Who let you in?!”

“Me!” Koge wasn’t looking at either of them, but instead focusing on getting her legs into the props as the nurses positioned her for birth. “I asked her to film it.”

“Without asking me?”

“Damn right, because you would have said no! Argh! Katsuki, don’t complain, who gives a shit!” Koge squeezed his hand tightly as she couldn’t resist the urge to push, leaning her head back. “Damn it!”

“Okay, Ms. Naegi, it’s time to push.” The doctor was positioned at the end of the bed between her legs, now. “With your contractions, don’t try to force it.”

Koge had never been in so much pain in her entire life. Pushing that little human through her was something that she could never have prepared for, no matter how many things she read or classes she went to. Every single contraction up to this point was like a little needle prick, though she did have to admit that the effort of pushing helped quell the initial pain. She could feel that she was drenched in sweat, head pounding and jaw sore from clenching her teeth.

Everything vanished in an instant when there was a sudden feeling of emptiness and a warm, wiggly weight was placed on her chest. Crying with an incredibly strong set of lungs, the little Matsuki had been delivered into the world. As the nurses worked to wipe him clean as he rested on Koge, she could only sit there and stare down at him, panting.

“Here’s your sweet little boy! What is his name?”

“M-Matsuki.” Koge was able to choke out, between her heavy breathing and tears. “My Matsuki.” When the nurses finally backed off for a bit, Koge shifted the baby up just a bit higher on her chest to be more comfortable, looking up at Bakugou with a wide smile on her flushed face. “Our Matsuki.”

Bakugou was only pulled out of his stunned state by her smile, that burning returning to his eyes as he looked at her. Sniffling, he quickly reached up and wiped his eyes, overwhelmed with happiness and excitement at the birth of his son. “You fucking did it, Koge. You did it!” After kissing her with an excited passion, he turned his attention back to the still screaming child in her arms. The smile on his face was something that couldn’t be stopped, nor could he resist rubbing the child’s back softly, even if he was covered with a blanket.

“Our little squid… He even looked like one coming out, Utsuro, just wait until you see it.”

“I love him. My little darling.” Stroking the babies arm softly, she softly hummed and tried to calm him, finding that she was successful quite quickly. Matsuki calmed, only giving little gurgles as he grew comfortable against his mother. Giving a heavy sigh, Koge leaned her head back, closing her eyes as a feeling of relief and calmness washed over her. “Katsuki… now comes the true hard part. For both of us.”

Softly moving her hair out of her face, Bakugou kissed her lips softly, before resting his forehead against hers. “Whatever comes, Utsuro, we’ll do it together… All the sleepless nights and dirty diapers in the world couldn’t stop me from loving you both.”

New tears cascading down her cheeks, Koge smiled nearly from ear to ear, nuzzling her nose against his affectionately. “My sweet Katsuki…”

Sniffling and soft sobbing from the other side of the bed caught their attention, and Bakugou instantly felt his face flush with fire at the fact that his mother was still filming them. “Hey, Mom, get that off of us!”

“No way!” Mitsuki wiped her eyes, near sobbing herself. “My boy, being sweet! I have to get it all! And my beautiful grandbaby!”

Giggling softly, Koge kissed Bakugou’s cheek to gain his attention. “It’s okay, Katsuki… I know I’ll never forget this moment, but… I really wanted it on camera.”

Bakugou looked back down at the baby, feeling himself calm just from the presence of the child and the happiness of the occasion. “Okay, okay… It’s worth it.”

“It is… So worth it.”

The rest of the process came and went, with the baby being taken away to be cleaned, checked and wrapped up for warmth. Koge went through the rest of her steps as well, delivering the placenta with no difficulties. Once mother and child were both cleaned up and deemed healthy enough with no signs of issues, the two of them were moved into a recovery room. The first thing the nurses suggested was to have Koge breastfeed if she wanted, which after an assisted trip to the bathroom, she took the opportunity without hesitation.

“He’s so squishy, I don’t know how to… move him.” Koge carefully handled the child in her hands, shifting her clothing aside to maneuver him to her right breast. Quite instantly, the child latched on, bringing a new smile to Koge’s face. “That’s it, little man. Get it.”

Bakugou chuckled, sitting next to her on the edge of the bed. “Look at him go. He’s a natural, I guess.”

“I’m the one that’s gonna need practice.” Koge shifted her position just a bit, though did her best to not disturb Matsuki. “Look at him, he’s the most adorable thing ever! I love him so much.” She lied her head on Bakugou’s shoulder as he stroked her hair gently, both of them watching their child nurse.

“Me too, Utsuro.” Seeing some movement through the window in the hospital room door, Bakugou glanced up, noticing a raven head of hair dash out of view in that same instant. With a sigh, he kissed Koge’s head softly before standing. “Looks like there are people that want to come in. How are you feeling?”

“I feel great, Katsuki. It’s okay, you can let them in.”

“You’re not embarrassed about having the baby on your tit?”

Giggling, Koge shook her head. “No love, not at all. They can’t see anything anyway. Let them in before they have a heart attack.” Making sure that at least her other breast was covered and that Matsuki was comfortable, she watched Bakugou as he made his way to the door, opening it just a crack at first. He hissed something at everyone, probably telling them to keep it down before he allowed them in.

Seijirou was the first, hands over his mouth as he excitedly entered the room, nearly hopping. “Oooh my goodness, look at the baby!” The quiet, excited squeal told Koge that Bakugou did tell them to be quiet. “Doey, look!” Dokuji barely got one glance in before he looked away, face flushing at the fact that Koge was basically nude. Next was Mitsuki and Masaru, then Koge’s parents Kozue and Ryuji, followed by Nene and Kirishima with little twins Otoha and Daiki in their father’s arms.

“Ko-Chan! I can’t believe it! Finally, we’re mommies together!” Nene quietly came up next to the bed, sitting down next to her best friend. Koge couldn’t get rid of the smile on her face, glancing up at everyone as they came at varying distances to see the still nursing baby. Bakugou seemed more wary of the company than Koge felt, wanting to share the experience with everyone. Sure, she may not want anyone to hold the baby just yet, but having everyone sit like this with her felt like such a blessing. Everything had gone perfectly, and now she could only expect that the happiest years of her life were to follow.

“Thank you, Ne-Chan. And thank you, everyone, for coming to visit. I promise everyone will get a chance to cuddle him, but he’s all mine right now.” Koge looked down at Matsuki, softly stroking the top of his hand. “My adorable Matsu… Gonna look just like his Daddy.”

“Aw C’mon, Koge, don’t curse the kid like that.” Seijirou joked with a smirk, ignoring the fuming Bakugou across the bed from him. “That’s the worst you could have happen!”

“Shut up, you kook!” Bakugou snapped, able to keep his voice surprisingly low. “Before I kick your stupid ass out of here!”

Koge laughed softly, watching Otoha as the young girl looked at the new baby curiously from her place upon Nene’s lap. “What do you think, little Otoha? Is Matsuki gonna be your best friend? Bestest friend in the whole world?”

Nene giggled, giving Bakugou a sly smile. “The baby talk begins. You make fun of us for it, but you’ll see! You’ll forget how to talk like an adult.”

Before Bakugou could snap back, Matsuki began to cry, bringing forth ‘aww’s from nearly everyone in the room. Adjusting her gown back into place, Koge looked up at Bakugou. “Katsuki, would you-?”

Understanding, Bakugou nodded and scooped the child into his arms. Even though it wasn’t his first time, the emotion at holding his son swept through him again, forcing him to turn his back to the group so they wouldn’t see it. He bounced and rocked the child softly, hushing him quietly with every bounce. “It’s alright, squid, I gotcha.”

“I can’t believe I’m watching my son bounce a baby, let alone his own child! I never thought I’d see the day!” Mitsuki lied her head on Masaru’s shoulder, hugging his arm tightly. “It’s the cutest damn thing! Isn’t it, honey?”

Nodding, Masaru removed his glasses, his own eyes tearing up. “It’s adorable.”

“You two shut it! Enough mushy crap!” Bakugou hissed at them over his shoulder, still trying to calm the crying baby. With a happy sigh, Koge leaned back into her mattress, starting to truly feel exhausted without the baby in her arms.

“It is adorable… He’s going to be a great father…” As her eyes closed, Nene stood with Otoha in her arms, looking over to Kirishima as the redhead wiggled over to Bakugou to see the baby.

“Hey, we were all complaining about being hungry a minute ago, why don’t we go get something to eat and let Koge nap for a little while? Then we can come back. I know I needed a nap immediately after giving birth.” Nene nuzzled her nose against her daughter's cheek, making the little girl giggle. Giving Bakugou a soft pat to his shoulder, Kirishima joined his wife.

“I agree, baby. I think she’s already out of it.” With a sharp-toothed grin, Kirishima pointed down at Koge, who was clearly already asleep.

Tenderly fixing Koge’s sheets up over her, Kozue gave her daughter a gentle kiss on the top of her head before turning her attention to Bakugou. “We’ll be back to let her rest.”

“Yeah, then it’s our turn for the baby.” Mitsuki began to leave with a gentle touch from Masaru. “I want to hold my grandson!”

“You’ll hold him when I say so.” Bakugou’s glare didn’t back down as everyone filed back out of the room, with Kozue being the last. Before she left, she smiled at Bakugou sweetly, calming him for the moment.

“You all get some rest. Thank you for being so good to her, Katsuki. No one else in this world is better suited for her than you, and I’m so happy you’re together.”

Swallowing the emotional lump in his throat, Bakugou gave a nod in understanding, finding it difficult to respond with words. With that, Kozue left the room, shutting the door softly behind her. The new silence bringing peace to his mind, Bakugou looked down at Matsuki, who had fallen asleep in his arms. As carefully as he could, Bakugou laid the child down in the bassinet next to Koge’s bed, giving a soft sigh of relief when the child didn’t wake. Though, his lover did, lifting her head a bit to glance around.

“Huh? Where’d everyone go? Did I fall asleep?” She looked up at Bakugou as he sat down beside her, taking her hand gently. After sharing a quick kiss, Koge shifted her body over, giving him room to lay down beside her without any cords getting in the way. Bakugou took the silent invitation gladly, carefully caressing her body to his once they grew nice and comfortable.

“Yeah Utsuro, everyone left just a second ago to go get something to eat.”

“You didn’t want to go with them? You have to be hungry by now.” Koge softly ran her hand along the skin of his arm, smiling against his lips as he kept his face close to hers. “I would let you go now… If you wanted.”

“No way.” Bakugou caressed her cheek, looking into her eyes with such an uncharacteristic softness that Koge couldn’t help but wiggle herself in closer. “I couldn’t be away from you even if I wanted to.”

“You’re so sweet, Katsuki... I love you.” With another kiss, Koge nuzzled her face against his, settling in with her eyes closed. “I love you so much.”

Bakugou grew comfortable as well, moving his hand back down to hold her body to his. “I love you too, Koge. Now get some sleep… We’ll have lots of ‘family bonding’ to do when you get up.”

“It’s always been my dream to have a family with you… I’m so happy.”

“Me too… I’ve always known that you’d be the one I get to call my lover… and the mother of my children. For my family, there’s nothing I want more...”

Revolutionary Girl Utena 34-39 And The Adolescence of Utena

So hot diggity damn, I finally finished the Series and it’s Sequel movie. (Perhaps it’s not truly a sequel. I will be graceful and acknowledge this as a possibility as I gleefully ignore it because hot damn that movie makes Negative Sense if You haven’t seen the series before (Which I know factually because I’ve watched it multiple times without having seen the series in full proper. That dance scene man) but makes immense amounts of sense if viewed as a sequel. I’m gonna get around to it sooner or later I think, probably sooner since the subject is on my mind, but still) Shit went down.

TOUGA: Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Final Letter? Hm..Why the play? But I'm making this call. Akio's not actually end of the world?

Saionji: YOU SURE YOU WANNA BE LIKE HIM?

But for real dudes, why you strippin.

...Oh is chuchu a familiar? Or some part of anthy?

Anthy is not having it. AND SH what the fuck WHAT THE FUCK WE JUST GONNA IGNORE HER SPURTING INTO SWORDS?

Honestly, all of this is half making me wonder about the black rose arc cause it feels...mad out of place? It got excised from canon but...hm.

Episode 36

This yinyang shit is increasingly worrisome.

Elevator again? Also, how long has it been since we've seen the rest of the student council. And why does Touga think he needs to beat her to save her?

Hm....

Is the coffin (Coffins) Ohotori? Is this some weird purgatory? Would explain shadow seminar guy.

You sound sincere when you say that. IMPLYING HE DOESN”T THE REST OF THE TIME.

DON'T KISS AND LOOK ALL DREAMY FUCK YOU AKIO. FUCK YOU

WHY CANT THESE GUYS CLOSE A SHIRT?

Oh Stuco? Please be the heroes we need.

Juri: SOMETHING IS WRONG

Miki: WELL SHEIS A GIRL BUT...Uh...I mean that's good? Right? Something is off.

Oh Boy. Revolution TIME.

….What...what are they doing. What's with the  Bike...? Also, the metaphor shit makes me uh..Hm.

Touga: GETTING SECOND THOUGHTS.

Saionji tries to copy akio, and immediately shot down, shits dumb.

Night Dueling...?

So...what's up Touga?

REAL STARS. SEEING REAL STARS FOR THE FIRST TIME!

And it shows the castle? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Man, touga realizing he fucked up but big.

I'm not sure if he's fucking around or for real right now. This is a cute as hell moment i'll grant, but suspect. Touga's got a history.

So he does care. Oh...So that's why he has to win. To keep her away from Akio? But...what's up with that.

...So is Saionji to Anthy as Touga is to Utena? Huh...?

Shadow Time...? Prince of the Horse and the Prince...uh...Hm.

Apocalypse time Hoo boy.

Huh. The Roses growing in anthy's clothes....I wonder if they're supposed to be sorta like...Swords? Analagous to Swords.

Touga and Saionji...Yeah I think that's a HARD ass confirm there. Wait oh my god really?????

That no budget though.

….Touga said he'd protect her and....EVERYTHING GOT REALLY FUCKING WEIRD. THE CARS. ANTHY

Oh man the cars are getting HOT wrecked.

Yo. YO GUYS THIS IS DOPE.

Nanami was RIGHT THE WHOLE TIME. TRIFLING AS HELL AS SHE WAS SHE WAS RIGHT.

ALSO BLUE HAIR AND JURI MIRROR UTENA AND TOUGA OK GOT IT. Shiori is Anthy then I guess.

Utena don't you know how much i've despised you? HOLY SHIT

Episode 37

Hey, Hey, Utena. SHITS FUCKED. ITS HIS FAULT.

DON'T TAKE THE RING OFF OH FUCK. She remembers. Oh boy. Ohhhhhhhhboy.

Only realizing how many fake ass stars are in the apartment.

Anthy is acting more robotic than usual.

Forgive Me! Chuchu.

Oh, the Rose bundle has the whole set of colors don't it. Yep. Orange, green, blue, yellow, red.

End of the World doesn't want things to change?

You two just gonna...just gonna admit how close you are. Touga. Saionji.

Anthy can hear the car noises. If you can still hear it.

GOD I HATE THIS MAN SO MUCH.

Anthy on her mind.

No star mention huh. Stars don't interest him....Hm.

Only place you can see stars are in Anthy and Utena's room.

Is this the first time we've seen utena in red?

….I JUST realized how immensely creepy this picture taking thing is from Akio. Somehow.

Anthy: My brother loves you as well miss utena.

Oh she's fucking up the ball game.

I love this life, I hope our feelings stay the same between the three of us.

Well fucking up the ballgame is off. But falling out the pattern. Never a good sign.

Juri and Miki to the rescue?

Utena is chosen to bring the world revolution. And she doesn't...want it. Been playing prince..So you could make yourself a prince.

Juri: What're you gonna do about anthy. You love her right. You...You know that right?

Nanami to the rescue. YOU KNOW YOU'RE BEING TRICKED YOU MORONS. STAY AWAY FROM AKIO AND ANTHY.

Nanami is a good girl, if a bit of a bitch..

Kozue watching like a hawk.

Miki: Hey I'm a bit in love with you.

Juri: COINCIDENCE?

Duel for her huh. HUH?

Shadow Girls...Why aliens crashing into the tower?

Utena's the Actress here. Shadow Girls OTP. Only one girl can be chosen at the audition.

So, a taste of the princess life?

Hoo boy...Why does he look so fucking angry. Also Anthy with the uh...weirdly sexual pains there.

What do you wanna do in the future Anthy?

Cantarella. A Deadly Poison. Why...are you just bringing that up. Poisoned Tea and cookies...huh?

What's with the record skip.

BOTH OF US TOGETHER 10 YEARS FROM NOW. Yes it would be nice. Just...Just ask her out utena. Please.

...Why are you on the ledge Anthy. uh...Is this a suicide HO SHIT.

I just can't go on. Anthy just...legit tried to kill herself? She just tried to kill herself.

Devoted to true friendship? A gullible fool?

Anthy. You can still turn back huh. Ring On. Prince Mode Engaged. Let's just fucking go.

Episode 38

APOCALYPSE AT THE START? UH. UH PATTERN BREAK? Uh...Shit.

Last two eps, now is the time I guess.

Hold Hands in the face of the End of the World. Let's goooooo

So...That's Dios. And Akio in front. So they're not the same person. For sure.

The Castle where a prince and princess will live together happily

WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED TO ANTHY JESSU CHRIST THAT WAS SCARY.

Rose Bride Utena.Make her into a rose bride. Hit him utena.

Yes, what does happen to Anthy. Rose Bride forever. Swords for ever.

Oh are they building on the suicide thing? Please and thanks.

Oh anthy REALLY wants to die. Like she is not even trying to stay alive.

The Rose Bride, a doll with no heart, to be abused and used huh.

Anthy and Utena finally having a heart to heart.

...Kinda feel like they're talking past each other though?

TAKE BACK THE SWORD.

Dios on her side.

The Prince and Castle are illusions. So that include the school...?

Uh...Uh...the star gazing room? Planeterium, that's the word.

Akio's room is the tip top. Casts Illusions.

Is it so wrong? YES FUCKER JESUS.

YOU ARE AN ADULT YOU FUCK. ITS NOT POSSIBLE TO BE FAIR.

You never tried to understand anthy. Huh...

They are throwing so much here. Like god damn.

Akio claims

HELLAVATOR?

He's trying so hard to get that sword from Utena.

He's...crying?

JUST A WITCH.

OH GOD THE SHELL. ITS BEEN SO LONG!

Nanami too!?

Smash the Worlds shell....oh the end of the world.

The Revolution Duel Has Begun huh.

Akio with his off brand Utena Outfit.

Real Combat huh?

Akio is REFUSING to explain himself. Which is markedly different since he's the only adult here.

I'm Gonna be a Prince...Oh shit is this the duel opening shot. Illusory construct. Oh boy. Oh boy that shit was literal wasn't it.

Anthy...? She looks uh...Not Ok.

Akio isn't though. He's looking uh...Bad too.

ANTHY? ANTHY?! WHAT TU FUCK? THATS HOW YOU END THE EPISODE?!

HOW YOU GONNA STAB UTENA LIKE THAT?

EPISODE 39

uh...pattern breaking again. Where's the opening. Last time to break a pattern I guess. Chance to.

FUCKING STABBED HER! WHY.

You remind me of Dios. But you can never be my prince cause you're a girl.

uh.

Uhhhhhhh.

The Duel Named Revolution. Utena is...Her Their Representative.? She's their Rep.

A boy saved juri's sister, and died. They can't recall his name. Uh...hm.

Y'all just gonna have corn cookin though.

Anthy....?

Do you hate what i've become? Why is he crying?

Y'all just gonna leave Utena dying.

His knowledge is absolute. He chose this path. Claims to love her. FUCK HIM UP.

He couldn't win with his sword, so he stole utenas.

UTENA HANGIN ON.

Stubborn and reckless hero. A taste of true friendship.

OH FUCK THATS A LOT OF SWORDS

Shine with with human hatred. Summoned and deflected by Utena's sword?

HEY HEY WAIT A SECOND. THE FIRST SWORD THAT STRUCK HER IS DIOS/AKIOS. HEY WAIT A GODDAMN MINUTE.

Takes the sword in place of the prince. Destiny of the Rose bride huh. And he's sitting here saying she chose this? YOU TALKED HER INTO IT ASSHOLE.

AND HE CAN'T EVE DO IT WITH THE SWORD HE WANTED SO BADLY.

So...Dios...Again. Through the door eternity, and the power to change things. Well damn fuck dios too.

It's interesting that Dios is presented as a powerful figure, but is ultimately pretty impotent here. He holds absolute power but cannot act? HUH.

Broke her sword huh.

Akio: I COULDn'T DO IT SO YOU CAN'T EITHER. FUCKING DUMBASS

Utena; FUCKING TRY ME. THIS SHIT IS GOIN DOWN.

Oh, friend pointed it out. Roses are all her color.

No power, you can't do anything. Just be dependent.

Utena: FUCK OFF. FUCK THIS DOOR. ANTHY

HAVENTS SEEN THIS SHIT IN A WHILE!

And the swords stopped.

Just realized how childish the prince is...

Oh hey a coffin. And her hands are bloody.

Oh...I think HES gonna have to deal with these swords now.

It's anthy in the coffin. Of course. Tracks.

Don't be afraid of the world says baby Utena. Word.

AT LAST WE MEET!? Yeah that tracks. That. Yeah. She's not being the rose bride. She's being Anthy.

TAKE HER HAND ANTHY GODDAMNIT

While i'm thinking, the whole edifice of end of the worlds power broke down.

Someday together. Uh. Uhhhhhh. Hey. Hey wait a minute.

HEY NO THATS NOT COOL. In the end I couldn't be a prince. Forgive me.

The Swords are...Uh...Utena. UTENA! oh..oh shit.

Wakaba. Hero.

Shadow Girls gonna be an actress. 10 year reunion.

Who was Utena again...? uh.. Utena Hopitalized? Uh...Hey wait a second.

Everyone seems to be..going on.

They're all forgetting she ever existed.

He really doesn't realize what happened.

She vanished from your world. Huh.

Oh hey she's in utena's colors. Well maybe her colors.

I SWEAR I'LL FIND YOU. HEY WAIT.

Hey Final frame Utena and Anthy. ALRIGHT.

MAY THIS ROSE REACH YOU.

NOW THE MOVIE

Revolutionary Girl Utena The Adolescence of Utena

Ok, so this isn't the movie proper, just the dvd thing, but Man Anthy looks super. She looks actually kinda confident and active and alive I guess?

Anyway, I'm going into this assuming it's some kind of sequel. I'm looking for that anyway. Whether it's true uh..We'll see.

HERE WE GO

Anthy and Akio on the tower? And now Just Anthy. At the toppest point where things were controlled right?

….what the fuck is this geometry.

Music still slaps.

I'm sure those pictures were supposed to mean something but fuck if I know what.

...What the hell.

Utena!? SHORT HAIR SHARP DRESSED!

Wakaba! Utena being the charmingest though.

On Air? Shadow Girl Radio! Listen Carefully!

This academy is castelvania.

Shadow girls: Dumped again? Rain on her parade? Huh.

Utena's Pavlor Instincts: PRINCE?! PRINCE WHERE!?

Budget yo. Miki and Juri though man. Juri's not a bad choice for prince.

Juri has like 8 times as much hair. Like Damn. Your Rival

Hey it's Touga! Utena is SHOOK

...The Rose Thing is BUSTED.  Just straight wrecked. The Garden. That's the word.

Hey touga what's with the spooky ghost bullshit.

HOW MANY YEARS HAS IT BEEN SINCE WE LAST MET.

I didn't come here looking for you. Surprised you're here.

I'll live with high goals.

More of a pink rose really. Unfurls to reveal...the ring? Huh. Rose Rain now.

Oh...That's DEFFINITELY the highest place in the academy. Structurally uh...uh.......

The Rose Gate looks fucked up. Oh that's a lot of roses. Didn't anthy say something about tending roses...?

Are you not afraid? Anthy looks...really happy. Her hair is down.

I'm the only one captive to the roses. Why'd you come here?

Why'd you come to this academy? And Anthy stopped when she saw the ring. And kinda freaked out.

How do you know about that. Heyyyyyyyyyyy. Saionji.

Rose brides symbol. She's holding that pink/white flower pretty tight though.

Anthy just...kinda went back into robo mode there. And she's not...precisely feeling the ring thing.

Meanwhile, that gate effect.

Do you have a sword? (you know nothing. Last chance to take it off please.)

Utena. A broom ain't a sword, but yeah fuck him up. Ain't worse than what you.

Anthy slap count. But she's active here. She's being a person here unlike before which is.

Anthy is covering her ears.

You're the one who doesn't understand. Is there any girl who's happy to be treated like a possession.

I NEVER SAID THAT I WAS A BOY. FUCK OFF.

Anthy looking hopeful there. DIVE. YOU're NOT ALLOWED TO DUEL WITHOUT A SWORD.

And...Is this song from the original but better but....

Anthy and utena got back into the swing asap. Long Hair Utena returns. Prince Utena rather I guess.

GG Saionji.

PINK MOSTLY! ITS PINK MOSTLY! NOT RED. A LITTLE RED! OH MY GOD THIS MIGHT BE A LEGIT SEQUEL!? Kinda sorta. I'll have to explain myself later.

Touga and Utena are cute as kids. Look at em.

Anthy just...asserted herself.

I don't usually invite people to my room. And then you pull her onto your bed.

Mark of the rose, you know it don't you?

Uh...uh damn Anthy. She's just....straight up feeling up Utena. Looked shocked then certain.

Dreaming of the castle with the prince.

Kozue what are ...what's up with this room. Her prince drowned huh?

Probably the closest we'll get to duelist wakaba here.

Also trying to win her. Well I guess you could say he's here for the dueling.

Hey, Touga don't kiss and tell.

These two are...oddly friendly.

Touga, don't talk to Akio. It's never good.

Calling her a witch.

Prince was a lord of the flies. The witch turned them into a prince.

Wait, not Kozue, that was shiori.

KOZUE, just put a knife to her brothers throat. OK.

Uh...Sold to your father...? Where's nanami though. Calling him a customer makes this uh...infinitely skeeziesr.

Wow Shiori seems a bit uh...

Oh yeah, that's no good. Goddamn poor touga.

Touga: I will win. But I can't be cruel to Juri. High goals man.

This darkness leads to the end of the world....And Dios being a goddamn Cryptid.

The Revolution will begin soon.

Miki: My wish is to obtain more power.

Juri: I want power to be free. To be unconstrained.

Touchy Juri is cool. Big Big Sister Energy there.

Shiori being MAD damicky right now. Trifling. Just absorb Nanami or something?

Miki: Free from Constraints. I get it. Yeeeeeee.

Anthy Please step away from the edge. And you just flash stepped to the center. ok.

Utena is WAY more expressive here too.

“There is no prince” That's...pretty chilling coming from utena actually. And Anthy is so damn touchy feely.

Uh. Uhhhhhhh. ok. Axe antics.

But not in utena which is a step up.

Ooh the ground is mad pretty.

And the starrrs. YoooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Anthy! Looking mad gentle and sweet here. Duelist Utena! And Rose Bride Anthy!

Oh shit. This dance scene is...And it's their reflections .

NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME PASSES DON'T FORGET THTA PROMISE. IVE COME ALL THIS WAY AT LAST!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE LIGHT IS ALWAYS SHINING!

THEIR EXPRESSIOSN AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

Oh it's the oninon boy.

Draw Each Other huh! eyebrow waggle

Anthy where the hell are you going.What the. And it's the tower huh.

It's just an obvservation room now though huh. Or in this version.

Anthy, smiles when she takes off the ring. SEQUEL VIBE INCREASES.

Anthy, is unquestionably the one in charge this movie. Compared to before. She's way more impish.

Like...How the hell did you talk her into posing nude exactly?

Utena. Utena are you asking her to strip- ANTHY!

Uh what's that sound. WHAT ARE THESE PICTURES? Uh...Uh...wait what's up with the anthy here.

Ok, so Akio/dios being a weirdo again....and there is a fucking hole in her chest. A big honking hole.

SHADOW TIMES:...

Is...Is that nanmi. There's Chuchu and nanami yep, ok. OK. Oh it's the three dudes too.

You had limitless budget and you put this shit in.

...What the fuck was that though. Crocodile kun.

Hey Akio looking...Cool as usual. But is he still awful?

Record skips. Great.

Did he roofie his sister.

Hey fuck that noise WE DUEL NOW

VS JURI

...People can SEE them dueling?

What's with Shiori though.

Juri once again, being a boss. Also, I just noticed that all of their outfits have gotten an upgrade.

...Miki what do you mean who is Touga.

Juri is...WAY madder about her pretending to princedom than before.

Dios Overlay. And Anthy seemed shocked.

…....A Dead Akio. And he was buried under the ground. And Anthy looked...kinda...pissed.

Anthy killed Akio. And Shiori? Out here pulling shit?

...Oh Akio thought she was asleep when he pulled his shit. Hoooooboy.

Oh the interview room. Shadow room?

Akio freaking the fuck out and he killed her.

And he's dead. Pretty pathetically actually.

Deffo the shadow seminar. Hellavator!

...Touga?

So castle showed up when she killed her brother.

Is...Touga dead.

They keep going back to this drowning kid.

Hero Touga. The Touga we deserve.

Well he died in water and not fire, so...Go him. Seemed pretty chill about it.

I finally found you utena. Power of miracles as long as you stay here.

Pull the sword out and just put that shit back in.

Let's get the fuck out of here-CARRED

TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD

Best version of the Apocalypse song, but why a fucking carwwash. Who thought this made sense. It's DOPE to look at but like damn man.

Utena makes a DOPE car though. Like that shit looks awesome. SHES RUSTING  ANTHY. PUT THE KEY IN HER.

Shadow Radio! Hot Damn, Kage OS looks DOPE.

They're all pink haired shadow gals. Which is neat.

Wacky Races Yo.

BIG MISTAKE THINKING YOURE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN TURN INTO A CAR.

Only one who escapes this world. The only one who deserves it is beautiful me. Well...Rip Shiori.

OH ITS THE SWORDS. THEY'RE THE SWORDS.

Ok, this makes CONSIDERABLY more sense if you think of it as a sequel I think.

Needs help? Stuco Squad is there for youuuuuuuuu.

Or at least those who remain.

….WAKABA IS THE JEEP!?

Saionji: I have your back. And when we get to the outside world, I will be there to seduce. The fucking dork.

Oh hey it's the castle making what I must assume is it's last appearance....Oh that's ominous. Das big.

THAT OPENING THEME YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Still freaking weird, but Shadow Girls got your back..

HYE THATS CHEATING!

Oh hey, it's everyone's favorite dickhead.

Where you can be a living corpse.

You can only be a prince in that world.

Goodbye brother, you are no longer my prince.

Hey Akio, how is it you're still the worst.

The balancing act there is crazy like damn you two.

Shadow Girls no more! But we'll miss you.

Anthy Himemiya and Utena Tenjou as the Shadow Girls huh.

Man, the real world looks like shit. (?real World?)

The logistics of it aside, that's a hell of a cool shot.

Return to the outside world we're from. Explore and make the world bigger. Ok. Ok. I get you.

Also. That made LESS sense with context.

[aweebwrites]

Cooldown

Warning: swear words. Not a lot tho

(HAVE THIS FLUFF YOU WONDERFUL PERSON @sayijo >:( ))

__________________

Kozu hated summer. He hated seasons overall really. They were annoying and unnecessary. Well. Unnecessary in his eyes. What's the point of Ninjago being an inferno one quarter of the year and downright arctic the next? Why can't they have an Equinox all year around? He sat by the window in Cryptor's room, wishing he had the means to cool down somehow. He declined to have the ability to sweat. It was unappealing and disgusting to even think of. He gave an irritated sigh, glaring out the window. As a Stone Soldier, he was obviously made different from every other being in Ninjago. But he had soon come to be reminded that he was indestructible, not perfect.

Much like the serpentine, he couldn't regulate his own body temperature but the effects are not fatal nor does it inhibit him in anyway physically. He feels hot but it doesn't hurt him at all. So what was his problem?

Being overly hot or cold all the damn time is very uncomfortable.

It was during the hotter days when he and his brothers who also share in this misery, when they were all hot to the touch, that Kozu would leave to hang around the Ninja. Tensions around the apartment would grow high with all of them being annoyingly hot and unable to do anything about it. Yes, there was air conditioning but Kozu hadn't reached that far enough into their savings to afford it yet. His brothers were fine with that and him leaving but they weren't very comfortable around the ninja as yet. They did like to hear when he spoke of them however. Especially Cryptor.

Speaking of, said Nindroid walked in just then, pausing to look at Kozu.

"Still sulking huh?" He huffed, setting his swords down on his sword rack, the Mask of Vengeance at the top.

Kozu has heard of it from their father once before. He knew the mask was not a thing to be trifled with.

"You know, you hurt Lloyd's feelings though. I thought you and him got along." Cryptor hummed as he moved about in his room, Kozu stubbornly glaring out the window.

"The child should have known better than to put his nose where it does not concern him." He says, keeping his arms away from his body by holding onto the window pane and spreading the lower two apart on the bed.

"Maybe. But you didn't have to get personal." Cryptor countered.

He supposed saying 'do you not have a father to look for?' was taking things too far. He wasn't in the mood to admit it however. So he says silent, sneering to himself as the heat kept soaking onto him. Cryptor was unimpressed.

"Look, I hate forcing anyone to talk about anything so whatever." He says then looked over his overly messy, heavy looking bun.

It was unusual for his hair to be messy after just coming from his place with his brothers. Maybe something happened at home. Either way, if he leaves his stupid thick, long ass hair like that then it'll be hell to comb later. Good thing he's prepared. With that, Cryptor picked up a metal comb and a reinforced brush that was specially made for his difficult hair.

"At least let me fix that mop you call hair before it gets even more complicated." He gruffed, walking over as he spun the comb.

He took Kozu's lack of response as a yes, climbing into the bed and kneeling behind him. He pulled the red scrunchie from his hair, leaving it to spill down his back. Cryptor was pleased to see it as glossy as it was. It meant not only has he been washing it, it should also be easier to comb. He set it aside then began to brush the surface knots out. This was the easier part of the whole process. Once the brush didn't hit anymore knots, he replaced it for the comb.

Here we go…

He started from the ends, holding it to reduce the tugging it would be bound to start up. He then started to work his way up and hit a pretty stubborn knot. He growled then gave it an impatient tug.

"Ouch! Fuck! Be careful will you?" Kozu says with a growl in his voice.

"What the fuck do you think I've been doing this whole fucking time?" Cryptor scowled, working the knot free.

Finally.

He did run into more knots- of course he did. This was Kozu's hair after all- but everything was less eventful. Other than a warning sign appearing in his field of vision, warming him that he was overheating.

"Oh fuck." He mumbled to himself then activated his cooling systems as he continued on making sure the comb could pass through his hair with ease before pulling it all back from his face.

He braided his hair, starting from the back of his head down, his mechanical fingers following the instructions researched with ease. With that done, he tugged a few parts, making the braid looser.

"Now was that so hard?" Cryptor huffed then patted his shoulder.

He moved to get off the bed- only for a hand to grab him by the arm and pull, sending the whole world turning dramatically. He blinked once he found himself wrapped tight in four arms, a stone cheek squished against his forehead.

Um.

"... Care to explain?" Cryptor asked after a moment since it was clear Kozu was content with silence.

"You're… Cool." Kozu mumbled after a while, pressing him closer to his body, laying down with him so he could curl up around him, a loud, happy purr rumbling through Cryptor as he did.

"The sentiment is appreciated but that doesn't answer my question." Cryptor pointed out.

"That is not what I mean Cryptor and you know it. Your temperature is lower." Kozu clarified. "Pleasantly so." He purred, rubbing his face against his forehead while Cryptor closed his eye against Kozu's rubbing.

"I turned on my cooking systems not too long ago. I was overheating." Cryptor says, not sure what to do in this situation but he wasn't inclined to rush anything.

"Can you get colder?" He asked and Cryptor nods, allowing his cooling systems to work a little harder to get him much colder.

Kozu's purrs somehow became louder as Cryptor tried to figure this out.

Maybe he just liked the cold? Cryptor doubted that very much. Almost nothing would get Kozu out and about during winter. Maybe he was just hot? That seemed more logical. He is made of stone after all. Do Stone Soldiers even sweat? He doubted that. He's never seen Kozu sweat before. Maybe he's a lot like a snake then. Unable to retain body temperature. That would make sense since again, he was stone. He didn't mind though. This. He had four arms which meant extra cuddling and hugging power. Extra support… it was good. Best yet…

Cryptor melts, purring mixing with Kozu's as wait Stone Soldier began to run his fingers through his hair slowly.

He can still be fully cuddled while his hair was pet and his chin scratched. Kozu didn't go for the chin this time. His hand brushed his neck before his claws began to gently scratch behind his ear and oh fuck. Cryptor was nothing but goo. That felt so fucking good holy shit…

Kozu was all too thankful for the relief from his misery, happily paying Cryptor back by petting him like he liked. Like they both liked. He hoped he didn't mind if he took a nap. Sleeping was hard to do when the nights were almost as hot as the day. He yawned then, just thinking of sleep, his fangs shining in the light of day as his long, pierced, forked tongue pressed itself against the base of his mouth. He nuzzled the cool metal of Cryptor's face and settled with a huff, his purrs cooling a bit.

He kept scratching and petting, even as his eyes began to close. They soon stilled as he dropped off, fast asleep. Cryptor laid their content, despite Kozu's hands stilling their petting. He wasn't very sleepy but he was still being firmly cuddled so that was a definite win. He kept his eye closed still. He could drift for a while…

______

When Kozu blinked his eyes open a few short hours later, he felt pleasantly cool and rested. Content. Soft purrs started up in his chest as he closed his eyes again to relish. He would have never expected to manage to cool down like that. Or even sleep. And it was all thanks to Cryptor. He lifted his head to get a proper look at him. Whom was asleep. Kozu huffed then continued to run his fingers through his short, fluffy hair, fiddling with a lock as he began to purr as well. He reminds him of his other stone brothers. His other stone brothers whom were no doubt suffering from the heat still. He wanted to- He blinked.

Cryptor cooled him down… Was still keeping him cool. He could do the same for his brothers… Of course! He untangled himself from Cryptor, careful not to wake him before scooping him up in his lower arms. Once Cryptor remained asleep, he made his move. He opened Cryptor's door and immediately headed out, his Land Shredder his goal. Surprisingly, he hadn't run into any of the ninja along the way. He didn't really care though. He set a sleeping Cryptor in the front and got in the driver's seat, starting it up and heading towards New Ninjago City.

Cryptor only stirred when he was less than half way there.

"Ugh, what the fuck?" He says as he looked around, confused as to why he was in a vehicle when he remembered falling asleep in bed. "Where are you taking me?" He asked Kozu who only smirked.

"You will see." He spoke and Cryptor casted him a wary look.

He doesn't believe Kozu's intentions were to harm but he still felt wary. At the very least, they were still in New Ninjago City, a place he knew like the back of his hand. Cryptor watched as the high rise technologically advanced buildings gave way to smaller, traditional buildings that had some age to it. The remains of the old city. It dawned on Cryptor then. He was about to finally meet Kozu's brothers, wasn't he? It was confirmed once Kozu stopped before an apartment complex it appears.

"Did you at least tell the ninja?" Cryptor asked as Kozu slipped out, following suit a moment after.

"No." Was all Kozu ssys, walking up to the building and pulling out his keys to open the door. "Come in." He says, walking inside.

"That's called kidnapping you know." Cryptor says as he walked in behind him.

"It is not kidnapping if you willingly came." Kozu ssys, glancing over his shoulder at him then stopped in the main living space where a few of his brothers were.

'Brother, you have returned early… And with a guest…' A warrior greeted in their native language, casting a wary look at Cryptor.

'Yes, I have. This is Cryptor, the one I often spoke of.' Kozu gestured to Cryptor who awkwardly waved his hand once, figuring Kozu was introducing them.

Stone language was something only Stone soldiers knew and they seemed content to keep it that way.

'Ah. The Nindroid.' The same warrior says as they all relaxed some. "Pleasure to meet you." He says, switching to Ninjagian language.

"Yeah. Same." Cryptor nods.

Cryptor wasn't very phased when he found himself scooped up and being carried off like some damsel in distress.

"I can walk you know." He says drily, crossing his arms.

"Maybe so." Kozu says lightly then deposited Cryptor on a surprisingly soft bed. "My brothers are also plagued by the heat. I would like for you to allow them to cool down as well." He said as a few watched curiously from the door.

"... You could've just asked like a normal person. Fine. I don't mind." Cryptor shrugs, sitting up.

He lowered his body temperature again since it went up during sleep, waiting a moment for him to cool more before nodding at Kozu. Said Stone Soldier turned to his brothers.

'He will help you all cool down.' He says and they perked up at the mention of cooling down. 'Go ahead. He is cold to the touch.' He encouraged and they all looked at each other before a stone Scout made the first move.

Being as small as he was, heat gets to him more than the others. He looked up at Cryptor from the edge of the bed that was manually cut low considering their height. Cryptor reached a hand out to the small soldier and they reached out hesitantly, taking it. The Scouts slitted eyes blew wide open, leaving him looking like a puppy before he scrambled onto the bed, clinging to Cryptor's arm and rubbing his cheek against it with loud, happy purrs. Cryptor snorted at the small soldier. Cute… That is, until he found himself pinned under 14 stone soldiers, eagerly purring and clinging to him.

Ok, so they were still cute then too. Like a gaggle of puppies. Cryptor laid there, resigned to his faith as a life sized cooler. But then someone began stroking his hair and it was even better. They all looked at him surprised when he started to purr- but the surprise only lasted a few seconds before they relaxed even further around him, guards lowered. Kozu watched them all with warmth in his chest. Pleasant warmth. He then headed out and up the stairs to find the three missing soldiers.

They weren't hard to find. They three scouts were all out hissing at each other on the 6th floor, ready to fight- that is until Kozu picked all three of them up by the backs of their shirts and carried them downstairs as they growled irritably. He didn't say anything, only brought them over to their brothers who freed up a spot on Cryptor's body for them to cling to. Immediately, their growls turned to purrs once they came in contact with cold metal. Kozu sat on the upper half of the bed, his back against the wall as he reached out to comb his claws through the closest head. This warrior so happened to have shoulder length straight hair.

"Are you alright Cryptor?" Kozu asked, glancing at the Nindroid face, the only part of him fully visible from the mass of purring stone soldiers.

"Yeah. M' good." Cryptor says, ruffling very short hair that pushed itself into his palms.

The cold he was emitted would have been uncomfortable without their warmth to neutralize it. Right now, with several, constant purrs rumbling like thunder, he was content.

_________

Cryptor waited for them to fall asleep before navigating his way out of the stone pile around him later that night. He had to call the ninja and let them know he was alright before Kai burns the city down or something more moronic. Kozu wasn't asleep, his green eyes glowing into the night but he hadn't stopped him. He headed towards the bathroom he gestured to then activated his communicator. He paused then, looking in the mirror.

Well I'll be damned.

He looked his hair over in the mirror, noticing with a tilt of his head that the back was partially braided, cylindrical red beads holding the ends of the braids, preventing them from becoming undone. They left most of it as it as normal but just at the side of the metal playing covering the right side of his head, he could see tiny braids held by just as small, red beads. He didn't even feel them do it. He gave an awed huff.

"Cryptor?! That you?!" Kai yelled into his ear then and Cryptor winced.

"Fuck don't yell. Jeeze. Anyway, I'm fine. I'm spending the night at Kozu's." He says, brushing his fingers over the braids.

"Really? Why didn't you tell us? We thought…" Kai began to rant into his ear and Cryptor let a smile slip onto his face.

No wonder Kozu praises their skills so much.

___________

Bonus:

"Kozu what the actual fuck." Cryptor says the next day, positively swimming in his borrowed shirt.

"It is either mine or one of theirs." Kozu simply shrugged, allowing his brothers to decorate his still braided hair.

Cryptor looked at the warriors who were closer to his body type but also shorter than he was. No doubt their shirts would ride up uncomfortably.

Cryptor looked down at the baggy black jeans and white t-shirts with extra arm holes.

He supposes he'll just have to deal until his laundry is done...

Revolutionary Girl Utena 13-15

I’ll give overall thoughts like...later. Tomorrow. or whatever. God.

God.

Episode 13

Just realized in the intro that Anthy and Utena are not spinning in sync. Almost in sync, but not quite.

Can't believe I didn't think about this before, but Juri is also something of a Ditto fighter. Not quite as blatant as Touga sis, but kinda.

...The...The Recap of the Thesis again? Wait are the colors of the roses different?

What shit is about to happen oh god.

WAS IT SUCH A GOOD IDEA?

Shadow Girls immediately? UFO?

...Is..Is toga listening to a recording of himself?

Egg time but uh... Uh this feels way fucked up.

WHO THE FUCK IS THIS

Dios...?

Also, seven trials? Self Duel? What?

Friendship 1 (saionji)

Self 7 (Touga)

Slap on Beat. It is a thing. No way this is on accident. CONFIRMED

Also, Saionji actually had reads on Utena? Uh...Not sure how to feel about this.

Never Lose the Strength and Nobility even when grown.

Also, Anthy was legit shocked this first duel huh? First awakened and all but...Huh.

That really was just a soul crush there though damn.

Choice 2 ( Saionji)

Keep fighting the duels? Yeah man.

THIS CLIPS EP THOUGH. Can't even have just a cheap review of things without it doing something huh.

It just occurred, but do any of them know WHY they do the sword drawing thing with Anthy?

...Are these slaps gonna stay on beat? Can...Can we not?

Choice breaks the seal on Dios power? Not just friendship, but choice? Choice made by friendship? Hm

Reason 3 (Miki)

The need of the bride thing still remains weird and unexplained yet.

Toga taking things away and uh...being on the bed like that is...Not painting a great image

...Wait, is the Rose Mosaic supposed to be a violation thing?

Love 4 (Juri)

Wait, Revolution is impossible because they lost hope? Wait wait wait what?

Also, with this being full blood light imagery, these night darkness gods, some shit went down here didn't it.

Gynous?

Certainty of Death Namely Light. Absolute Destiny Apocalypse? Huh....

These...Inside i'm hollow.

Adoration 5 (Nanami)

Also, just realized, Sword with Power turned pink. So...Is pink the power color here?

Increasingly sure that the rose mosaic is doing SOMETHING. And that these songs are well

Conviction 6 (Touga)

Wait...She cleared Seven duels?

….Vases on the tables? Milkshakes.
