A BKDK Hunger Games AU ch.5

LINK TO CHAPTER 1

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

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

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

Kacchan’s light is still on. 

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

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

“Hi, Kacchan.”

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

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

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

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

“Eri cried earlier…” 

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

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

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

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

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

Izuku just about manages to hold back his grin. 

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

“Hah. Figures.”

“Hey!” 

They both fall into silence again. 

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

“It’s Eri’s first reaping, isn’t it?”

Izuku frowns. 

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

Her name is only in there once. 

It can’t be Eri.

It can’t.

“Izuku, look at me.”

Teary green eyes meet confident crimson.

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

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

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

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

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

“Feeling better?”

Izuku smiles a little. 

“Yes. Thank you, Kacchan.” 

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

Izuku laughs. 

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

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

“There’s my stupid Deku.”

They sleep with their windows open.

OH I WANNA RAREPAIR! heres one I think about Iida × Bakugo LISTEN

Imagine bakugo sits on the desk and any other annoying thing because hes trying to get iidas attention Bakugo is not verbal when he flirts normally he says whatever he wants but he is very shy when it comes to these kinds of things at first. So he just keeps doing these little things to tic him off everyday at school until iida finally confronts somehow it turns into something where this line can be used by Bakugo "You wanna kiss me so bad it makes you look stupid" and then they actually do kiss.

My second and most preferred way is that when Bakugo and Iida kiss it's in the classroom after everyone has left already and they start talking about something doesnt matter just something that leads the conversation to Bakugo going "just do it then." And they are so close Iida leans down a little and kisses Bakugo who kisses back and when they pull apart they just stare at eachother like, did that just really happen? Did we kiss? And the first thing Bakugo says is "you better not ever tell Deku about this" and Bakugo goes home that day so stricken with confusion that he actually may really like Iida

Down the road of their friendship developing he preferable calls him glasses over four eyes cause it's a little nicer and one day they actually talk it out and start dating and only the bakusquad know and maybe Tsu and Uraraka but not Deku and Uraraka keeps trying to make mention to Iida to tell Deku and he doesnt know how to tell him so hes been putting it off.

The reason he doesnt wanna tell Deku is because everyone and their grandma knows Deku has a little crush on Bakugo and Bakugo just fell out of it couldn't mutually feel those feelings for him MEANWHILE deku fully just knows about Iida and Bakugo cause he knows everything about Bakugo there ain't nothing he can hide Deku doesnt see HE SEES HOW THEY STARE AT EACHOTHER BEFORE CLASS.

One day he accidentally catches them kissing outside the classroom and Iida's talking real fast like. "MIDORIYA I CAN EXPLAIN we were going to tell you it just-" he stops him with his hand and just goes. "I know already I have known for a while now its okay"

I can go on but this ask is long enough.

okay, first of all, I am on my knees to apologize for not responding to the asks sooner, just life is crazy and I'm in another country so I hardly have time to sit and read! but I'm here now please don't hate me <3

now second of all, I have never thought about this pairing before, I'm usually a hardcore bkdk with occasionally tdbk or krbk but the way u worded it makes me fall for them a bit!!!

no matter how wrong people say this is (and they might be right) but bakugo flirts with insults and being a little shit it's just who he is sawrri, so I can definitely see him not knowing how to properly convey his interest and just resulting to annoying iida and insults here and there, nothing too much cause he's not fucking stupid !!

the kiss scene.. I'm all behind u on that, def like a "just do it then" kiss, as a izuku stan I'm so happy you included him somehow in the narrative cause yeah no matter what they gonna be in each other's lives, and I think he would be the first one to admit defeat because he would be the first to realize bakugo had a new crush (even before the man himself!)

he wouldn't actively push them to each other but I think he would back off a little and just let life run its course and when it happens he would assure bkg a lot (and cry himself to sleep after).

but anyways, I can see the appeal of this pair, it's interesting to see how many different combinations exist in the fandom, send me more yall!!

[shuotaizawa]

we all know bakugou naturally has good looks and good skin because of his mum right? but then one day he gets a few zits (bc Hormonal Growing Boy) that kinda hurt and also drew the attention of the bakusquad so he wants em GONE dammit!!!! bakugou with all his Embarrassment, sneaks off to deku’s dorm to ask for help on getting rid of them — bc it was a snowball’s chance in Hell for him to turn to his own friends first.

naturally, deku throws all his plans out the window to have an impromptu Skincare Day with bkg instead. deku gives him a crash course on skin types, common skin issues and the proper facial products one should use; and bakugou’s a lil annoyed over the influx of info & deku’s fussing but he secretly thinks it’s all worth it when he got to see how adorable deku looks sporting a fluffy headband and a clay mask on

[mycinnamondiary]

*deep breath* Okay...

NO ONE who ships bakudeku dismisses how badly Bakugou treated Midoriya.

NO ONE who ships bakudeku is saying that it wasn't bad behavior and that he shouldn't be chastized for it.

NO ONE is saying that them shipping two FICTIONAL CHARACTERS automatically dismisses whatever abuse or trauma other people have experienced from bullying nor does it mean that they do not sympathize with the real people who have suffered.

NO ONE is telling people who were victims of abuse to go and date their bullies.

There are a lot of people who feel like they have the right to invalidate a ship (again, BETWEEN TWO FICTIONAL CHARACTERS) and bash REAL PEOPLE (for the sake of a fictional character) because they believe their experiences and what they would do in that situation is more credible than what is canonically happening in the story that the ship is based on.

To antis who love to lurk and post hate on the tag and harass people who ship bakudeku, you may not want to have any sort of a relationship with someone that has bullied or abused you, and that is completely understandable. Again, no one is forcing you to. Why you would think anyone is doing that to you is beyond me because DEKU IS NOT A SELF-INSERT CHARACTER for abuse victims. He's not there for you to project your own experiences on. He has his own story to tell and his own set of morals and ideals. Just because he has had some experiences that remind you of your own traumatic past, it doesn't mean that those situations are exactly the same (was your childhood also affected by a quirk-driven society? I don't think so) or that Deku would follow the same footsteps that you would have done. And it certainly doesn't give you justification to go around harassing people who have different opinions than you. That's just absolutely hypocritical.

Deku doesn't even see Kacchan as an abuser nor does he hate him, otherwise he wouldn't be admiring him, looking up to him for inspiration, nor would he be chasing after him after so many years. Not to mention the times when he deperately tried to save Kacchan even at the risk of his own life (it was his plan that got Bakugou out of Kamino). Shipping lens aside, anyone who has been following the series can clearly see how important Kacchan is to Deku. Deku made up his mind on that, so who gave you the right to decide that for him?

In the wise words of @drivingmenatz in his video (pretty much pure gold and everyone should watch it whether they ship it or not): BakuDeku | What's in an OTP?:

"You may see yourself in a fictional character, but that fictional character is not you."

And calling Horikoshi a bad writer or harassing him for not writing Deku in the way you want him to act is absolutely not okay. Wtf?! Go write your own story then, that's what fanfiction is for anyway. If you hate the story that much or if there are too much triggers for you, why would you even continue following it? Find another story to read ffs. There are literally thousands out there. There's so much more you can do with you time other than wasting it on something that stresses you out.

[kewltie]

bkdk au where deku's hero brand twt acc is super popular & often his agency uses it to post promo pics of him on the job for his fans but recently there been more candid pics of him out of his suit grocery shopping & drinking coffee. they're like who IS TAKING ALL THESE PICS?? the fans are used to professional photos taken of deku shielding a kid against a crumbling building and deku sitting on top of a tower as he oversee the city he's protecting like standard heroic photos but this is the first time they see deku so unfiltered and approachable.

at first they thought maybe it's just a new style of promo ya know trying to make deku more human instead of this larger than life figure, that he's not always deku BUT ALSO izuku yet compare to the promo pics of the past the new ones are captionless and seems "ordinary" in fact. the 'heroic' pics are still being posted regularly and it's always have a caption attached: "hero deku saved a child!" etc it's all really dry and robotic lol standard promo lines but these new candid pics are posted randomly and there's never a sentence or word attached to them. compare to the pro pics of deku on the job looking courageous and noble, this version of deku--IZUKU under the suit---seems to be taken w a phone or something bc its clumsy and raw; it's izuku stripped to his bare essentials smiling at the camera shyly like he didn't expect it.

so rumors spread that it's deku's assistant or someone from his agency taking these candid pics to show the 'true deku' that he's just like everyone else!!! but then one day theres new pic of izuku w messy hair holding back a yawn as he climb out of the BED and ppl are like ????? unlike the other candid pics of izuku doing everyday things this is a more intimate look bc IZUKU is in bed and who the fuck would let their assistant or someone from their job to go into their bedroom and take pics of them waking up??? so maaaaaybe it's not from his agency??? the next series of pics continue to fall under the same theme of intimate and private look of deku in his most natural habitat: napping under the sun w a book on his chest AND waking from it as he smiled softly at the person behind the camera nuzzling his cheek against their hand. unlike the rest of the other candid photos, this is incredibly LEWD. like deku still has his clothes on and he's not doing anything scandalous but it's worst then watching a porno bc this felt so warmth and affectionate in a way that they all felt terribly voyeuristic LOL /o\.

after that photo speculation RUN RAMPANT bc clearly it's not from his agency and deku looks so in love and smitten in that waking up photo and how can anyone touch deku that tenderly if THEY'RE NOT ALSO IN LOVE WITH HIM? it's def a lover posting these pic of deku behind the scene. these photos become the talk of the fans and media bc everyone want to know WHO IS THE PERSON BEHIND THESE INTIMATE PHOTOS OF DEKU?! but no matter how many ppl pressed deku about it he just smile amusingly and brush it off completely, neither denying or agreeing LOL. which only fuel the speculations and rumors that ppl start taking guesses from close friends of deku in the likes of hero uravity & shouto to a random idol that deku had saved several months back. just about everyone was named even completely out there endeavor was suggested LOL but among all the ppl named one name kept getting pass by and it's dynamight. some did brought him in the discussion but only as a joke bc LMAO dynamight and deku eternal rivals and mostly likely to killed each other if locked alone in a room?? PLS pigs would sooner learn to fly.

deku is such a high profile figure that something as silly and inane as 'secret lover' taking candid pics of him and posting it online is like the most interesting hop topic that nobody can SHUT UP about. everywhere you go, ppl want to know who you think is behind the photos???? bc izuku is so silent about it and wont give them anything, ppl start hounding his friends and colleagues about it demanding to know: is it YOU?? ARE YOU BEHIND THE CANDID DEKU'S PHOTOS?? IF IT'S NOT THEN DO YOU KNOW WHO IT IS?? CAN YOU TELL US??? and it's super annoying lol. then some brave fan asked dynamight of all ppl and dynmight stared at the brave kid in the face w a severe look in his eyes: 'yea it's me, you dumb fuck so you can stop asking others.' and the kid was like HAHAHA that's so funny dynamight i didnt know you can joke :'D!!! bc this is the era of the internet, someone always have their camera so the clip of that fan asking dynamight if he was the one posting those 'intimate pics' and dynamight saying it's him go viral. everyone thought it's the funniest shit bc hahaha dynamight and deku?? HYSTERICAL.

then completely unexpected, a new photo from deku's acc got posted and holy shit: deku in an oversize dynamight's shirt w the tinniest of short, BITE MARKS ON HIS NECK & an embarrassed look on his face as he tries and fail to fight off the arm that yanking his shirt down. if the shirt and bite marks weren’t obvious enough hint, the fans would recognize that ridiculous biceps from anywhere and this time the photo came w a caption: "you can fuck off now." yea it's def dynamight alright LOL and that's how bkdk ended the internet :D.

somewhere in between (bkdk drabble)

(for the bed-sharing and fake dating prompts on the post where i asked for cliche prompts to turn into prose :D @tired-and-clumsy @theyeeyeetbois​ @merwholockian-404)

When Katsuki dreams, he walks the line between bliss and heartbreak.

He walks it like he walks down the familiar streets of Musutafu at night, walks it like he walks the halls of UA years after he’s graduated, walks it like he walks everywhere.

He walks it like he owns it.

In the middle between slumber and consciousness, he dreams of paradoxical visions that make his head spin and his mind scream. Katsuki dreams like a dying man’s vision of oasis. He dreams of all the things he cannot reach and the deepest secrets that no one else has ever tried to. Blindly, he dreams like he is a man with everything and nothing all at once.

In those dreams, he is fine.

The dim early morning light shines through the window and besets its orange glow unto ruby eyes struggling to pry themselves open. Katsuki squints, staring belatedly at the stripes of sunshine that peak past the blinds. Dust motes float in the air like the thoughts that drift and stir in his head and he buries the side of his face back into his pillow.

Katsuki looks down and finds a much brighter sight.

Warm hands. Warm body. Messy, fluffy hair. Freckles and freckles and freckles and freckles--endless constellations of little dots that when traced could spell out the secrets of the universe. Katsuki wants to count them all. Katsuki wants to count them forever. 

He thinks he’s never been in a comfier, safer place than in these tan, scarred arms. 

Deku continues to snore peacefully in his cuddled position, green curls pressed underneath Katsuki’s chin. His chest rises and falls with steady breaths--each repetition a tiny miracle in the eyes of someone who’s seen the hero flatline too many times to be comfortable. Absently (wishfully) the blond runs his fingers up and down the smaller man’s sides.

“There’s only one bed,” Deku explains. He says something about a cover as a couple and how they need to stay close by each other. Mirio adds something to the mission briefing that Katsuki doesn’t catch because his mind is too stuck on the concept of sharing a bed with Deku.

He’s saved Japan. And the world. Probably multiple times over if you’re looking at impact more than setting. Katsuki’s legacy is spread far and wide and he highly doubts that no one understands having the world on your shoulders quite like he does.

But right now, he holds his entire universe in an embrace.

In this period--this twilight between reality and his dreams, Katsuki can pretend for just a moment that its like this everyday. He can pretend for a moment that the way his heart stops and his chest aches with want is normal and free and that this death grip the man below him has over his heart is something they are both allowed. In his dreams, Katsuki can pretend he has everything that he wants and everything he will ever need.

It’s frustrating.

The way his dreams make him feel like the happiest man on Earth and the most pathetic fuck in history. The way his dreams confine him to the corner of his mind that allows himself to long for something he can’t have. The way that dreams are dreams and reality is reality but somehow his mind still finds a way to blur them both.

The way that his dreams also feel like nightmares.

“I hope this doesn’t get weird,” the green-haired hero jokes. He pushes the blankets aside and sits down on the bed gingerly (even if they’re only a few feet apart, Katsuki feels like there’s a mile-long rift between the two of them). “We used to do this all the time as kids anyway, you’ll still be my best friend in the morning.”

Because in these dreams, Deku reaches out for him. He grabs his sleeve and nuzzles in closer, saying Kacchan in that cute way of his like it’s simultaneously a prayer and an answer. In these dreams, Katsuki is free to hold him close and kiss him until he’s breathless and panting and unable to this of anything but of love and joy. In these dreams, Katsuki can hold scarred hands and feel the cool press of a gold ring hum against the warmth of his palm.

Hands so finely attuned to destruction. To hurting. To creating explosions that could level cities and kill dozens. Those hands would be intertwined with ones that have reached out for years. Yes, in his dreams, Katsuki is allowed to never let go.

There’s a gap in his chest, both literally and figuratively. He has died, is dying, and will die for the man in his arms more than a thousand times over but it is still somehow only in his dreams (only in his sleep) that he can manage to admit those three words. Those three words that he’s been holding inside of his heart since the day he misread the name of his heart’s keeper. It is only in his dreams that he can reach out and never let go. It is only in his dreams that those gaps are filled. It is only when Katsuki lets himself dream that he truly lives.

So in the dim light of the morning, under the sheets that are the barrier between reality and fantasy, straddling the line between bliss and heartbreak.

Katsuki lets himself dream.

Some non canon Villain waifu deku angst

So I’ve read been reading some angsty bkdk twitter threads this morning and last night. I want to try making one of my own, would you guys like to see? Its about villain Waifu deku and husbando kacchan. Its NON CANON to my au though. Here goes: Katsuki would always look forward to coming home. You know why? Because he would always have his extremely adorable ‘waifu’ (as he’d lovingly call his husband ) greet him by the door. Often, Izuku would be in his little pink apron but on extra frisky days, JUST the apron. What Katsuki loved about that the most is Izuku’s bright smile. He always looked excited to see Katsuki come home, even if he does this everyday. Katsuki NEVER grew tired of it too. He especially looked forward to it during shitty days. His babycake’s smile can just Lighten up his mood easily or take away any stress or pressure from being the number one hero. One day, however, he felt something strange. Katsuki was still at work when he felt this weird feeling. As if something was amiss. He had this gut feeling that he should go home.He tried to reason out that he was just imagining it. So katuski tried to go about his day as usual and ignored this strange feeling. When he got home, he excitedly opened the door expecting his husband to be there as usual. However, he was shocked at what he saw. Instead of Izuku smiling brightly at him and greeting him cheerfully....someone else stood there. It was Todoroki Shoto in a black suit. “What the are you doing in my house?” Katsuki asked, raising a brow. Shoto looked at him with grim expression. “I’m sorry katsuki...he cant Come home right now. Izuku.” Katsuki was taken aback. “What the hell is that supposed to mean?!” Todoroki had always been a weird guy. A good fighter and hero, but weird. He has always been so distant and quiet...so Katsuki was shocked to see him like this. He looked Iike he was tying his best to hold back his emotions of grief and worry.... which alarmed him. Shoto then took out something from his pocket. It looked like a jewel or a pendant. He handed it to Katsuki. Upon closer inspection, Katsuki recognized it as the pendant. The big boss. Katsuki, shocked, looked to Shoto. “What... I’m confused... why do you have this...” he stumbled with his words. Shoto’s facial expression hardened. “I think you know already...” katsuki’s eyes widened. “What happened to him? To the big-no...to my Izuku.” Shoto, who couldnt hold it in anymore, clenched his fist and faced away from Katsuki. Damn it, why did Izuku have to leave him with the toughest of tasks. “He’s gone. Katsuki.... he died a hero even if the world thinks he is a villain. He tried to protect you until the end.” “He loves you very much, please dont resent him from keeping his other life from you. He wanted you to remember him a smiling and loving husband, not a villain who’s path is stained with blood and sin.”

What happened to the saying “DON’T kill the messenger”?

Well, he’d learn from the prince himself that the he does have the decency to take heed of the saying, but there’s no saying stating you shouldn’t or couldn’t fuck the fiery messenger boy with green hair and eyes.

After all, it was not everyday that the rarity of a male omega was born within these times.

Izuku grows up knowing he is promised, and has vague memories of his alpha from his younger days. He is also gifted, in more ways than one when his teacher Toshinori confronts his mother with Izuku being named as his successor. But a war breaks out between the kingdoms of the north and east, and the betrothed are separated far longer than the royal family would have hoped.

[luffythinker]

Bkdk grabs your heart but can i raise you ShinDeku? i once read a fic where something happen to Shinso (he got hurt) and he couldn't be a hero and Deku said if he wanted he would condone him doing vigilante work it's "Soft Light by Saezs" gonna talk about ShinDeku dynamics.

Shinso believing he has 0 worth but he wants to prove himself wrong, it's harder on some days but not everyday. Midoriya is there to snuggle him when he feels worthless. Shinso is the first next to Bakugo who's going to knock somebody's face off if they even say a hurtful word in Midoriya's direction your getting kicked 7 ways to hell. Midoriya is Shinso's sunshine and he tells him that every day protective boyfriends!!! cause i'll be damned if Midoriya isn't the same way Shinso's life was hard enough so if anyone's going to ruin his boy's day your getting punted, your getting mississippi smashed, colorado smashed united states of america obliterated if you even breath wrong by Shinso and Midorya catches it

i don't think either of them are the jealous type but they probably hold hands and walk down the street thinking "what did i do to deserve someone like him" at the same time they've probably also thought when they first started dating if they slightly see someone and this is mosting going in Midoriya's direction cause he's probably popular with the girls (and boys for that matter) at UA and Shinso over in the corner thinking wow he would probably be better off with somebody else but the only thing going through Midoriya mind is MOVE I NEED TO FIND MY BOYFREND i don't doubt Midoriya would ever have the thought of Shinso's better off without me im so terrible at maintaining a love relationship when he's the only one with experience cause ya boys was bullied but i think Shinso was bullied a little worse for having a cough villain quirk

NO cause i can see them having a conversation where Midoriya starts crying and wiping his eyes saying stuff Shinso has no idea where it came from and Shinso grabs his hands and tells him nobody ever even gave him the time of day like Midoriya does so the fact that he's even still here now is a blessing, "You say your blessed to have such friends in your life im blessed to have you in my life" which turns Midoriya into sprinkle mode and he's screaming and crying and hugging Shinso tightly

Both of them getting on eachothers cases for not taking care of themselves properly but it's a cycle cause neither of them have the care for themselves as they have for eachother it's literally the only argument they have when they argue its about not taking care of yourself one way or another, "you keep doing dangerous things" "SO DO YOU" "i want you to be careful" "i know you don't care about your body but i do" stuff like that

Midoriya called Shinso tinky winky once and he just stared at him for a long time whispering what the fuck is a tinky winky? are you talking to me????? and Midoriya laughed. no go on i wanna hear all the pet names you have for me and Midoriya just laughing and swinging his arm cause he can't two can play at this game Shinso calls Midoriya sprout and string bean, cabbage head and broccoli boy Bakugo probably calls Midoriya broccoli head Midoriya calls Shinso basil which is cute cause basil can be purple but also a lot of the vegetables shinso calls Midoriya can be purple too they are vegetable boys im crying

Shinso wears cat ears casually because of Eri and Midoriya thinks it's cute he teases him and calls him his little meow meow "shut the fuck up" - blushing Shinso lol

Golden retriever x Cat that's what this is omg

Who do you think confessed first? it could be Shinso but it also could be Midoriya im leaning more on Shinso but not cause he's super ready for the turn down of asking and doesnt wanna be the one to ask but he just really likes Midoriya after the sports fes AND AIZAWA KNOWS IT OH GOD he's in class A and Aizawa is teasing him about it THE DAD EVER he's a little shit about it too like have you told him you like him yet? snort wuss MIC TOO

this is getting long but before i go i remembered another doujinshi that is actually ShinDeku [atarime] Can Tonight Be The Night? – Boku no Hero Academia dj [Eng]

you absolutely can, because shindeku is actually my second fav deku ship!! (rodydeku is the third btw), and I've also read this fic!!

I love this dynamic of grumpy + sunshine because Shinso is not even that grumpy he's just bitter and mad at the universe, but Izuku brings out the best parts of himself, he really is like a ray of sunshine, deku gives him hope that the world is not that much of a bad place. I think for him it's a reminder that life can be hard and you can still end up being good like Izuku is, so he tends to be very protective of him, he won't let the world even try to mess with his boyfriend, he will be smiling and happy forever if it depends on him!!

I agree, don't think they're jealous because they are very secure and there's a lot of mutual trust involved. Like you said, in the beginning, it would be something that bugs Shinsou because why would Izuku choose him, but luckily, his boyfriend is always there to reassure him that he has all the right reasons to be the best boyfriend he needs, so eventually, shinsou trusts this and they don't have any issues down the line. I think they both would communicate well with each other, I really see them as a very healthy couple (I love the toxic flavor in some ships, but for me, the appeal of these two is that they're a lil fucked up but managed to have the best relationship possible)

Them caring for the other but not for themselveskjdfjk i think eventually they would just learn basic first aid stuff to be able to care properly because they're both too stubborn. I love the idea of them having weird cute pet nameskjfdf because the mental image of a guy like Shinso calling his boyfriend lettuce or sumn is so adorable to me

they're absolutely golden retriever x black cat !!

I think Shinso confessed first, it makes sense to me that he would realize his feelings and just… take a shot with it, like he knows izuku will be nice about it even if he rejects him, so he thinks he should be honest about how he feels bc he couldn't continue a friendship like this, I think he would try to make it a romantic moment but it would be so unlike him that it just doesn't go as planned and it doesn't feel like he's being himself. So he tries again, this time just taking Izuku on a walk and he just says it, he likes him, he doesn't want him to feel pressure but he also thinks it's fair for deku to be aware of his feelings, to his surprise izuku is really eager about it and says he is also into him, his feelings have been growing but he didn't know how to bring this up. I feel like they would not kiss at this time, just because they're both really nervous (like have you seen midoriya???)

But they plan on having a date, maybe something really cheesy like an amusement park or going for a picnic at the beach (bc Shinsou needs all the sunlight he can get), and the kiss would happen naturally, with them just wanting to feel each other <3

thank you for the dj rec, I will make sure to read it with the others!!

[kewltie]

thinking of bkdk in their late 40s when all their friends have already settled down with a family, izuku muses a lil forlornly how he would like to have someone to come home and katsuki just stares him dead in the eyes and says, "marry me then. i wont let you be lonely in that empty apartment."

the thing is bkdk are super successful heroes, they're the ranking no.1 and 2 and everyone knows their name but because izuku put so much effort into his career he never give himself the chance to meet someone and fall in love because the next things he know he's already 48 yrs old and still very single. as soon as he got right out of UA he had put himself right to work and hasn't truly stop since so izuku feels like he misses out on his youth, the flutter of first love, and now he feels like it's too late to grasp that chance again because he's too old to be stumbling around at love BUT here is katsuki suddenly telling izuku to marry him as though that would solve everything, solve izuku's worries and fears that he'll never experience love the way his friends had or knows what it feels to come home to a waiting arms that will comfort him after a hard day at work.

izuku first tries to laugh it off because katsuki cant be serious right?? but katsuki doesn't crack a single smile. "Do i look like im the type to joke about this kind shit to you?" he asks, voice steady and true. it is then that izuku realizes katsuki had meant every word he said.

but izuku still cant wrap his head around why would katsuki want to marry him of all things?? it is because they're both bachelor and wretchedly alone standing at the very top of their career where nobody can touch or hope to nobody can understand them like they do to each other?? izuku thinks that's a very dry reason to marry someone for the sake of convenience and not love at all because even though he'd devoted all his time to saving the world and helping ppl and HE'S OLD NOW but he still earnestly yearn to fall in love the ways all his friends had.

"If you needed company, we don't have to marry each other. I'm here for you always, you know that," izuku offers instead. "We're partners."

katsuki is silent briefly, then, he says, "You think i want to marry because you're convenience?"

Izuku blinks. "is that not it?"

"No," he says, all grave and serious, and for a moment izuku is breathless with realization.

"Oh," izuku replies, looking down at the table like it has all the answer in the world. "how long?"

"Since our third year at UA."

izuku jerks his head up, eyes wide with shock.

"what—I, wait, you can't mean that right?" he shakes his head as he flounders for the right words. they're both almost hitting their 50s now, so if it started in their third year then it would be 30 years of katsuki waiting for him, of pining over izuku and all that time was lost because of it.

katsuki press his lips into a thin line. "I have never lie to you."

"I—I'm not—" izuku flushes, because this wasn't anything he had plan for. who would anyway? no one would ever believe that katsuki has been in love with him for almost 30 years and izuku only found out about it now. even though katsuki has revealed the secret he has been hiding for 3 decades, izuku has no answer for him. he didn't notice katsuki's feelings for this long not because he chose to willfully ignore it but because he has never thought of katsuki in that light and that is the sad truth of it all. katsuki must have realizes that too because he doesn't press for more from izuku.

"i'm sorry," izuku says, mind racing to come up with a proper reply to katsuki's feelings because he deserves that much. "it's not you—"

Katsuki scowls. "shut the fuck up, don't even start that with me."

izuku quickly shuts his mouth, floundering for another reply that with save both of their feelings.

"Six months," katsuki says instead, eyes firm and never once dull since izuku has known him. "give me six months to convince you and if it doesn't work out we can get divorce then."

"you still want to marry me?!" izuku asks in disbelief. "shouldn't we like date first at least? isn't that how normal relationship work?!"

katsuki roll his eyes. "we co-own an agency, you have your toothbrush at my house, and we spent 18hrs out of 24 together almost everyday. our friends joke about us being a married to each other as much as to our work, we're each other's first emergency contact if something were to happen," he continues, straightforward like he's listing their grocery for today, "and i cant ever imagine wanting anyone more than i ever want you."

throughout this strange turn in their conversation, izuku realizes not once has he ever heard katsuki said he loves him but the way katsuki had revealed his unwavering devotion that lasts 3 decades and the dry, bluntness in which he spoken of wanting izuku, it's heavy. this hefty thing that katsuki has carried with him for nearly 3 decades, and in those years what izuku thought katsuki was just disinterest in any romantic connection because not once had izuku seen him look at another person, but it's because he has eyes only for izuku and nobody else.

izuku should have known never to expect anything less then 120% with katsuki because if there's anything that means something to katsuki, he would give it all and then some. it's humbling really, to be loved so fiercely and with such devotion that 3 decades is worth every second of it but izuku doesn't know if he's worth it especially when he's hesitant about his own murky feelings. he loves katsuki undoubtedly. they're partners in more way then one, but he doesn't know if he can love katsuki the way he deserves to be love in return, to return that same level of intensity.

"and what if the six months went by and there's nothing show for it?" izuku mumbles, hands clasp together under the table. i dont want to ruin this friendship of ours, he doesn't say. "what if you get bored with me and realized this isn't something you want now. what happen then?"

"you're stuck with me for life even if we get a divorce. i won't let you ever get rid of me either way," katsuki says, lips twitching with the slightest hint of amusement. "and if you're worry about me getting bored of you, don't. i fucking wont." It’s firm, assured, and completely sincere.

izuku thinks anybody with a half a brain at all would see this admirable man right in front of them with his unwavering affection and devotion that he had nurtured for 3 decades would be half way in love already, but izuku neither race or skip a beat; it remains dull and unmoved. maybe he's really too old to love like this. maybe, it's not that he's too busy to ever search for it like everyone else but because he has all the love for everyone but none ever hold a special place in his heart. for all of katsuki's sharp edges, his feelings burn ever so brightly while izuku has since been numb to his own emotions. to give too much to the world, to his job that he has never let himself fall freely and unconditionally. it's terrifying.

"what if i hurt you instead?" he says, quiet and severe. "what if in the end i couldn't return what you've given me?"

katsuki doesn't answer right away. the air around them tenses, threatening to suffocate them in the waiting silence. then a hand grab his and draws it toward katsuki's chest. "don't fucking underestimate me, idiot. i can and will make you fall in love with me in 6 months. 6 months is more than enough to make you realize what a fucking dumbass you have been the entire time for not taking notice of me while i have been looking at you for almost half of our life," he says with the cocky assurance that propelled him to the no. 2 position and beyond.

for the first time since this exchange had started and taken a strange, strange turn that left him his world shaken to its core, izuku's heart feels lighten. He stifles a giggle. "i still think we should date at least. marriage is maybe jumping the gun a little too soon."

"No." Katsuki's eyes narrow, and he squeezes izuku's hand firmly. "i'm not giving you any chance to escape from this. we can do all the dumb dating things you could ever want but we're getting marry first."

izuku tries to draw his hand back but katsuki remains undeterred. "Kacchan, please," he says. half begging for his hand back and half pleading against his insane idea. who in their right mind would ever marry first then date each other?! That's just not how it work! yet, katsuki is an unmovable fortress against increasing izuku's distress.

"deku," he says, thumb running across izuku's knuckles in a soothing circle, "give me this chance. let me prove it to you that i can do it. take this leap of faith with me and i won't disappoint you. trust me with your heart like you trust me with your life and i promise i will keep it safe."

izuku draws out a long, lingering breath that leaves his head heady with a dawning realization. "o-okay," he finally acquiesces, shaken with the knowledge that his heart suddenly doesn't feel safe at all for the first time in a long time in the hands of the man in front of him. bakugou katsuki is dangerous, but to the tender beat of his heart.

Katsuki's lips stretch upward into a small, precious smile that rarely see the light of day, leaving izuku breathless just for a moment. "we'll go get the marriage license tomorrow."

"tomorrow?!" izuku shrieks.

maybe he has been wrong all along, maybe you're never too old fall in love and experience it for the first time and that sometimes the things that matter the most to you are always worth the wait even if take 3 decades and katsuki always been more patient then people give him credits for.

[kewltie]

im entertaining a pro baseball au with bkdk on rival teams (one a former champ and the other a new powerhouse who had arrived on the field), set up by the media as each other's nemesis, until izuku got traded to katsuki's team and now they're force to work together and win a champ with this riff raff baseball team that had never gotten very far.

they're childhood friends. izuku grew up in katsuki's shadow—who is hailed as a prodigy, a one of a kind pitcher that come only every few gens but katsuki worked super hard to get where he is. izuku is actual the real genius but it's overshadowed by his insecurities and lack of confidence . so while katsuki shines ever brightly in the spotlight, he never forget that izuku is the only one to hit his fastest pitch and he got a mind like a machine that steer katsuki's pitching right into in glove every time because worse than getting a hit off Katsuki's pitch, he's a catcher who make katsuki feels invincible. Undefeated.

in their younger years they were a battery pair that dominated the lil league until Katsuki's warped superiority/inferiority complex broke them up because he was terrified that izuku would outshine him one day, ppl would start to see Izuku's brilliance, and that he wont need katsuki anymore. he left izuku for the bigger and better stage while izuku floundered helplessly wit out him thinking he wasnt good enough for katsuki. he dreams of being in the pro league with kacchan; it was both of their dreams to follow their idol--All Might, the no. 1 baseball player in Japan—to the biggest stage of their life. they were supposed to go pro together but katsuki went first and then racked up champions and champions with an all-star team as their starting pitcher, while izuku watched katsuki shut down the other team from his couch.

he thought that should have been him out there with kacchan so he trained everyday, dumping all his money into those batting cages because even if he got no team izuku still dreams. If he can’t have katsuki as his pitcher than he’ll do the next best thing, face against him as a batter. Changing position is not an easy choice to make, while izuku may be genius (though you wouldn’t know it by the way he’s shyly steps up to the plate) but even better than that he’s a hardworker. it's there that all might found him, discovered this diamond in the rough and took him under his wings because izuku was always meant something bigger than this cage. with all might's help izuku gets better enough to be scouted in an mid level pro team and it's there he get to stand on the same stage as katsuki even if they're on diff teams. katsuki's team may be a championship team with all its accolades so far but izuku is izuku. he's always beaten the odds; it's in him.

the 1st season izuku entered the pro, his team finally made it into the playoffs in many years but was knocked out by 1st seed team--Katsuki's team. it was a bitter feeling but to stare katsuki down on the pitch and getting a hit off of him like back in the old days felt amazingly good. katsuki had won against izuku and his team but it wasnt a total shut out either. in the last game izuku managed to to hit 2 home run off of katsuki's fastball and that's 2 too many. izuku is terribly awkward and shy in front of the media but when he step on that plate--he's mean and vicious. Eyes on the prize and the gauntlet is thrown. To chase a victory is in his blood as much as katsuki’s.

katsuki may have won but he felt like he lost the fucking war because izuku is here in front of him now and he cant get rid of him even if he want to. they were bound by some fucked up twisted fate that kept them tied together and meet like this once more. with that 1 series, izuku secured his place as katsuki's rival as the only handful of batters who can get a homerun on katsuki. in the next season, izuku made the playoffs again and lost to katsuki AGAIN but this time it was a hard fought fight that could go either way as the entire nation watched with bated breath. izuku and katsuki's team clashing was the most hype series in the playoffs even more than the grand finals. even their regular season games were watched by so many ppl. they were both stars of the their respective teams and they have a history so THE MEDIA ATE IT UP.

in izuku 3rd season, at the playoff once more he finally at last knocked katsuki off his perched in front of a stunned crowd and a glowering katsuki. they would eventually go to win the championship but nobody can forget that rainy long day when katsuki and izuku met up against each other on the field that last so long it felt like an entire year had passed between them. the grand finals was great between izuku’s team and another ace but it was the bitter, hard fought semi-finals battle between katsuki and izuku’s team that was etched into everyone’s memory.

that lost cut katsuki deeply. it was his first time not making it to the finals and to see izuku winning it all was such a bitter feeling. he started to slipped as his obsession with beating izuku grew. his pitching became erratic and uncontrollable. his pitching staff and catcher doesnt know how to fix him. it all came to a head when he had to face izuku again in the regular season and ofc izuku knew right away something was off with him. katsuki's team lost that match up and after the game, izuku reached out with concern.

"it's your shoulder isnt it?" he asked as though he didn't already know.

katsuki rebuked him right away, but it burned in him that even with all these ppl surrounding him it's only izuku who noticed that his shoulder was the source of the problem. izuku knew him better than anyone even now. katsuki eventually had to tell the staff that he blew his shoulder in the offseason while training and it didnt heal right. so he was benched to recover but even when he did... it was like he wasnt ever the same again. his pitching was off, lacking its usual explosive speed and power.

his team started to use him less and less and they didnt even make it to the payoffs in DECADES. the loyal and fanatic fanbase turned against their star even tho it wasnt Katsuki's fault, pushing to trade him out for a better, newer, and younger pitcher as though there were anyone better than him but katsuki was considered old news and izuku was the new face of the league as he won a back to back championship and mvp title. so katsuki himself pushed to be traded off to another team so he can start over and prove to his doubters than be can reach to the top with ANY TEAM.

they send him to the bottom of the league--U.A. a team of troublemaker players who are all talented but eccentric enough that they cant fit anywhere else. with this new team who finds katsuki's abrasiveness interesting rather than annoyance or something they have to put up with, they start to make a sort of family out of these misfits and katsuki slowly learns to rely on his teammates and not take on the world just by himself because he may stand alone on that mound but his team got his back to make sure he would never fall. they're good for him and hes good for them!!

 though they still have much to learn about each other, but they managed to beat some of the top teams in the regular season with their sheer guts. even tho they didnt make it to the playoffs this season, katsuki didnt feel bitter at all he knows there's a next year and a next year. There’s hope still for them. they’re growing and improving with each win/loss. Losing DOESN’T FEEL LIKE A PERSONAL BETRAYAL ANYMORE. It’s a measure of one’s growth.

Izuku's team consistently outperformed everyone now that katsuki isnt posed as his rival because he's in a diff league (west vs east) now so they rarely meet up in the regular season but izuku misses that edge, that feeling of being cut by Katsuki's fastball, and to stand on same the field with katsuki but more than anything he wants catch Katsuki's pitch, to be a battery again with KATSUKI so TO THE SHOCK OF THE ENTIRE WORLD izuku didnt renew his contract with his 3x championship team but chose to sign up with U.A. at a heavily discounted price because he wants to win WITH katsuki!!

the thing is he'd been following katsuki all his life. katsuki was the one who taught him baseball, followed him into the lil league, middle school, high school, the pro, and then followed in his footsteps to take the champ, so it should be no surprise that he would eventually follow katsuki to his new team.

"aren't you tired of being in bakugou's shadow?" his general manager asks. "dont you want to stand separate from him? with us you can go so far, midoriya."

izuku shakes his head. "im not in katsuki's shadow. he's paving the way and telling me to hurry up and come to him."

it's always the case with them. katsuki runs and izuku gives chase, but somewhere along the way they both have to stop. U.A. is that destination and the day izuku arrives on u.a.'s homestand he feels it in air--the electricity, the tension, and new beginning.

katsuki's eyes are wide as he spots izuku standing on the field of his team. anger and bitterness flickers hot and heavy in his chest. he storms over to izuku and demands to know wtf is he doing here DOESN'T HE KNOW THIS IS KATSUKI'S TEAM? but izuku just smile, sweet and soft.

"i'm here to be your new catcher," izuku informs him, rocking happily back and forth on his heels.

katsuki bristles. "not happening," he hisses.

Izuku raises his brow. "why dont you try me out first then." he quirks the corner of his lips up in amusement. "or are you afraid?"

katsuki eyes narrow because izuku knows him. KNOWS WHERE AND HOW TO PUSH THEM. it's like back in the playoffs again when they're facing each other. katsuki can read him just as easily izuku can too and it made their battle exhilarating, like dancing on the edge of a blade but sometimes he wonder what if it would be like not to have izuku's blade pointed at him but have him at his back instead. he should know because they were that once. together as one and it was a pairing unlike any other. no other catcher clicked the way izuku had and to have that again.

Katsuki grits his his teeth and nods. "get your gear," he says, "and i'll show you who is the one you should be afraid of."

izuku is an excellent batter. strong grip, good shoulder and arm, and there's power behind his swing, but he's an even better catcher.

he got good eyes to see ppl's move before they even do it. it's how he was able to shut down other pitchers as a batter because he read them all like a book, spending hours going over their specialize pitches and habits but he has never find a pitcher that pitch the way he wants them to. only katsuki gives it to him because katsuki holds no barred when he throw, he puts everything on the line and izuku wants that. he earnestly wants to receive all of katsuki's feelings. like he had in their past. izuku steps back as he watches katsuki gets on the mound.

it feels so right to crouch down, his gloved hand forward to receive katsuki's balls, and the fire of katsuki's eyes on him the entire time.

"give me everything you got. your best yet," he orders over the field.

katsuki snarls. "shut the fuck up," he says, and throws.

the balls slide right into izuku's glove like the turn of a key, the fit of a jigsaw puzzle, like a pitcher and their catcher. perfect just like izuku's imagine it to be. the impact of it knocks izuku back but the ball is right in his glove. right where izuku wants him to throw.

izuku gets up and throws his gear to the ground as he races up toward the mound. he laughs because THIS FEELS GOOD, BETTER THEN WINNING THE CHAMPIONSHIP ALONE BECAUSE NOW THEY'RE GOING TO WIN THIS TOGETHER AND HE KNOWS IT. CAN SEE IT IN KATSUKI'S PITCH, CAN FEEL IT THE BALL IN HIS GLOVE

"that was beautiful kacchan! i knew you can do it because with you here with me, we can do anything, even conquer this entire world," he declares with a certainty that startles even katsuki. he's grinning so wide and proud like katsuki's pitch was made for him and--

katsuki reaches out and pulls him into a forceful kiss because he looks so beautiful it hurts to watch, because in the end it was always about them. deku. Izuku. he has been waiting for a long, long time for izuku to get here. to stand on the same field as him and to have izuku catch his pitch. even when they fought each other in the regular seasons and the playoffs, where one side always win and the other always lose, he thought one day they would both share the same fate, same side and katsuki and izuku will taste victory together. they can, and now they will.

Try listening to Don’t leave - Snakehips!! It is SUCH a Bakudeku song I cry

the way i’ve been listening to this song everyday Since u sent me this ask bc i keep Thinking about how this song is literally? their? anthem??? and not @ how i can vividly picture this song in the form of a fic told in bkg’s pov....!!!! and yes there’s a tldr at the bottom 😗🤚🏻

glances at my additional tags [canon divergence, light angst, bakugou katsuki is Bad At Feelings, established relationship, fluff, smut] .

its a random tuesday afternoon & they’re both resting at home as they happened to have the day off. plus nothing ever happens on tuesdays anyway. then out of nowhere - bakugou, staring down at deku who’s lying in bed next to him: you know me; now and then i’m a mess. please don't hold that against me, i'm a [guy] with a temper and heat.

the first verse of the song = the starting of bkg’s shitty but heartfelt apology to deku, despite it being very Sudden

that’s bc bkg was Reminiscing and feeling overwhelmed over how him and dk are both finally top heroes. and how he’s been together with Freckles for a few months now. plus they even live together as they’re living out their dreams!! it hasn’t been long but hes so so so so in love Already.. sniffles

bakugou continues softly, while thinking of their u.a years: in a room full of people with you, i [didn’t] see anybody else.  when we fight, and you [were] right — i’m so sorry, I [made] it just so difficult.

this 2nd verse = bkg somewhat expanding on their animosity turned rivalry, and what he thought of it. however bakugou is a complex character and im not gonna say much Here about his canon r/s with deku

deku just hums in reply and gently takes bkg’s hand into his own as he waits to hear everything bkg has to say. naturally, he wants to give his own input but bkg has never sounded so gentle yet firm when talking to dk, much less opening up about his feelings. and so, deku remains silent.

im not gonna type out both pre-choruses, but it’s bkg talking about how “he’s a fuck up that deku needs and loves, because bkg’s perfectly imperfect, and that in turn makes the both of them perfectly imperfect together”.

in this au, i see it as bkg admitting to how shitty of a person he was for the way he treated deku in middle and high school, and its also his own roundabout way of apologising~

like bkg is so grateful that deku loves him enough to be in a relationship with him Now, After everything that has happened — but he can’t deny that a big portion of their lives were spent with him kicking deku around literally and figuratively, and then followed by them butting heads often

ok this is getting real long for no reason SO Lastly this pseudo fic / au ends with the song’s bridge and chorus!!! bkg just lets his feelings spill through strong reassurances

of how he knows deku loves him but has days where he overthinks and doubts bkg’s feelings being reciprocated, and while bkg always try to verbally relay his love, he usually loses his words and he doesn’t know where to start

in natural bakugou tact and charm, he tells deku to shut his mind off and let his heart hear him and that he doesn’t need to worry bc even though bkg may never get his shit together, one thing bkg can swear on is the fact that he wouldn’t trade their relationship for anything else so that he can continue to prove that nobody can love deku better than he can

cue them making love bc mr ground zero has always proved himself through doing, than through words.

tl;dr  don’t leave by snakehips is bkdk’s official anthem

Thanks sis 👏🏽. Preach! I’m so tired of looking for bkdk content and enjoying myself and suddenly seeing #anti bkdk content

Just because you don’t like a fictional ship that doesn’t give you a reason to harass real people.

You guys are no better than the characters you hate..walking around here harassing horikoshi and other shippers

Personally.. I’m a bigger fan of tododeku and kiribaku but I do enjoy bakudeku!

And it makes me sad to see people spew this hate. It’s ironic kind of. They’re being bullies too.

Blacklist it if you don’t like it. Simple.

Putting the fact that these are fictional characters aside.. meaning that people who ship bakudeku don’t condone abuse of any kind.

Deku is not a character insert. He isn’t you. I’m sorry you were bullied as a child or teenager. But everyone who’s been bullied doesn’t act the same way.

You don’t tell someone how they should react to someone or something in their life.

Some people go on to forgive their bullies and even go on to date them. And some people hold onto the hate.

What you decide to do with that hurt is up to you. But that doesn’t give you an excuse to harass people.

Bakudeku isn’t canon.. so calm the hell down. It’s okay y’all. It’s just a fake fantasy ship.

And Midoriya doesn’t hate Bakugou.. if you’d watch the anime and/or read the manga you’d know. Does he like Bakugou? Not really.. at least he doesn’t like him to a certain extent. Does he respect him? Yes. Does he still view him as his childhood friend? Yes.

Bakugo being a grade A asshole doesn’t erase him from Deku’s past.

If Deku hated Bakugou then he could’ve and would’ve walked away. He said he was “the only one that could accept Kacchan’s feelings” and that Kacchan was an “amazing person even closer to him than All Might”

Idk about you but I wouldn’t speak that way about someone I hated. And I wouldn’t help someone I absolutely despised with letting their feelings out.

Besides I don’t think it’s part of Deku’s character to to just hate people. Does he dislike people? Sure. Shigaraki, Overhaul, AFO, etc...

He actually has never expressed an extreme hatred or just plain hatred for anyone.

Sometimes I feel like anti bakudeku people are extreme reachers. It’s not like we think this ship will ever be canon or that it’s real.

At the end of the day all of this is fake and you guys are the ones cyber bullying people over a fucking book and tv show.

I find it hilarious and sad that you guys constantly talk about bullying but a lot of people in the anti bakudeku crowd bully other people.

They bully people who’re just looking at fan art and wanting to find more.

Shipping bakdeku doesn’t mean we condone bullying

And the world isn’t black and white. It isn’t “once a bully always a bully”. People change everyday. It doesn’t erase the past but changing most certainly does alter your future.

And please chill with comparing Bakugou to Endeavor because that’s two different situations and y’all know it.

*deep breath* Okay…

NO ONE who ships bakudeku dismisses how badly Bakugou treated Midoriya.

NO ONE who ships bakudeku is saying that it wasn’t bad behavior and that he shouldn’t be chastized for it.

NO ONE is saying that them shipping two FICTIONAL CHARACTERS automatically dismisses whatever abuse or trauma other people have experienced from bullying nor does it mean that they do not sympathize with the real people who have suffered.

NO ONE is telling people who were victims of abuse to go and date their bullies.

There are a lot of people who feel like they have the right to invalidate a ship (again, BETWEEN TWO FICTIONAL CHARACTERS) and bash REAL PEOPLE (for the sake of a fictional character) because they believe their experiences and what they would do in that situation is more credible than what is canonically happening in the story that the ship is based on.

To antis who love to lurk and post hate on the tag and harass people who ship bakudeku, you may not want to have any sort of a relationship with someone that has bullied or abused you, and that is completely understandable. Again, no one is forcing you to. Why you would think anyone is doing that to you is beyond me because DEKU IS NOT A SELF-INSERT CHARACTER for abuse victims. He’s not there for you to project your own experiences on. He has his own story to tell and his own set of morals and ideals. Just because he has had some experiences that remind you of your own traumatic past, it doesn’t mean that those situations are exactly the same (was your childhood also affected by a quirk-driven society? I don’t think so) or that Deku would follow the same footsteps that you would have done. And it certainly doesn’t give you justification to go around harassing people who have different opinions than you. That’s just absolutely hypocritical.

Deku doesn’t even see Kacchan as an abuser nor does he hate him, otherwise he wouldn’t be admiring him, looking up to him for inspiration, nor would he be chasing after him after so many years. Not to mention the times when he deperately tried to save Kacchan even at the risk of his own life (it was his plan that got Bakugou out of Kamino). Shipping lens aside, anyone who has been following the series can clearly see how important Kacchan is to Deku. Deku made up his mind on that, so who gave you the right to decide that for him?

In the wise words of @drivingmenatz in his video (pretty much pure gold and everyone should watch it whether they ship it or not): BakuDeku | What’s in an OTP?:

“You may see yourself in a fictional character, but that fictional character is not you.”

And calling Horikoshi a bad writer or harassing him for not writing Deku in the way you want him to act is absolutely not okay. Wtf?! Go write your own story then, that’s what fanfiction is for anyway. If you hate the story that much or if there are too much triggers for you, why would you even continue following it? Find another story to read ffs. There are literally thousands out there. There’s so much more you can do with you time other than wasting it on something that stresses you out.
