#kiribaku fic rec list

[what-would-have-happened]

Reblogging with a few edits, and another fic worth adding to the list!!

Soulmates and Wormholes — Kiribaku, Tododeku. It’s a modern AU featuring the well-loved soulmates trope; but with a twist, and that twist is parallel universes. This fic is consistently hilarious throughout and tells a compelling story that only gets more and more interesting every chapter, and I cannot wait to see where it’s going. It’s excellent. 76k, in progress.

MHA FIC REC LIST

Because apparently this is a thing that people do; so, I’m going to list the best fics I’ve ever read as well as why, exactly, you should read them. It’s a very varied collection, but you’ll find a lot of dimension/time travel, as well as Todoroki-family centric fics here.

Dragonborne — Ojiro/Shinsou. Set in an AU where Ojiro’s quirk isn’t just Tail, but something insane and awesome, actually. This fic has incredible writing and a very compelling plot that gets PERFECT around the middle of the story; if you are someone who likes either Ojiro or Shinsou for no good reason, this is the fic focusing on them that you’ve been looking for. 125k, complete.

Mild-Mannered School Teacher/Adrenaline-Junkie Vigilante — Fuyumi/Miruko. Fuyumi becomes a vigilante and runs around vigilanting with Dabi, without realizing who he is; she gets a girlfriend along the way. Check this one out for a peak f/f ship and lots of Todoroki drama; funny and emotional at the same time. 136k, complete.

Back To Me — no ship. A story about Kurogiri finding Shirakumo, or maybe about Shirakumo finding Kurogiri. Either way, it’s a rollercoaster; mental conflict abounds as the man of mist tries to figure out who he is, and villain-hero conflicts aren’t exactly making doing so easy. 214k, in progress.

Quirked — Erasermic. Izuku travels to a parallel dimension where no quirks exist, and manages to bring a quirk along with him. Despite not having had one before. What else to do than to become a hero? This is the vigilante Izuku story to surpass ALL vigilante Izuku stories, full of fresh and interesting ideas as well as a carefully evolving plot. 133k, in progress.

Cracked Glass — no ship. Essentially a Promised Neverland AU, but it takes place in a dimension parallel to canon; when said dimension collides with canon, it begins the first chapter of a brilliant disaster. Ojiro stans, this is another fic just for you. If you’re not an Ojiro stan, read this anyway and become one. 192k, marked incomplete, but it more or less is finished.

Dermabrasion — Dabihawks. This is a world where Shouto goes looking for Touya, and wouldn’t you believe it, he finds him! Naruto is vaguely involved. No, that wasn’t a typo of Natsuo. SO MANY GOOD TODOFAM FEELS. God, this fic is excellent; really explores the dynamics of everyone in the family in wonderful detail. Yes, everyone. All the Todorokis get screentime here. 410k, complete.

make this feel like home — Tododeku. A story about the three younger Todoroki siblings trying to get along over the holidays; eventually, they drag the oldest brother in too. Short but sweet, funny, and hits you right in the heart. 26k, complete.

Cair Parallel — Shinsou/Kaminari. If you don’t ship them (as I do not) you can simply ignore that part; and it is beyond worth it, for this fic’s magnificent story. It’s gotta be one of the most creative things I’ve ever read. Modern no-quirks AU, but the gang plays dungeons and dragons; so many varied character arcs, all developing with an equal amount of focus, and so much humor alongside the complex relationships. If you’re of the opinion that Iida needs more fics where he’s a main character, well, I am too, so come check this out. 590k, complete.

Artificial Parenthood, Affectionate Brotherhood — no ship. If you read only a single fic on this rec list, read this one. It’s metaphorically every single chaotic Dabi-gets-deaged fic you’ve ever read, but combined into a vaguely coherent narrative that’s glued together by innovative word usage, that good old Todoroki angst, and Bakugou. There’s also time travel. There are so many thoughts in this story, and they’re all condensed tighter than a steel rope. I can read this again and again and again, and I still don’t know if I’ve found everything this has managed to express. Probably not. If I had to say the story was focused on anything, I’d say Dabi, Bakugou, and the escalating terror of existence. 208k, in progress. (the other fics in the series are worth a look, too.)

The World Ended Before It Could Begin (Time Doesn’t Heal All Wounds) — no ship. Shinsou time travels back from the Nomu apocalypse to save the world, and runs directly into a pre-Dabi Touya. Events proceed with a lot of confusion from there as Shinsou tries his best while trying not to rope his friends into danger as well (he does not succeed) and with no intention of gaining a family (he gets one anyway.) Lots of family feels and humor here; Touya goes undercover as Dabi at one point, which is hilarious. Also: duck feet. 72k, complete.

Lost In The Darkness — no ship. Shigaraki kidnaps Bakugou at Kamino, but instead of the events we all know, there’s an earthquake, and they both fall in a pit and die. Okay, they don’t die. They do become besties, though; a hero-villain team up that’s determined to change the world and recruit each other to their respective sides, Bakugou and Shigaraki are like a pinball machine that wrecks everything else around themselves for the better. The League attempts redemption, Midoriya and Kirishima try their best, and the Todoroki brothers get dragged into the situation one after the other. If one thing’s clear, it’s that no one’s life will ever be the same again. 394k, one chapter left.

Ignite to the Call — no ship. The dimension travel is premium here, my friends. A group of UA students wake up in a world that’s both similar and different to their own; where reality could have gone, if one thing had changed. What is that one thing? Surprise, no one knows! Featuring Izuku as Shigaraki’s little brother, Dabi as a guy who wants to know why Shouto froze him in an iceblock, a collection of teenage runaways and dangerous animals, one or quite possibly two ghosts, A Great Escape Plan, and copious amounts of kidnapping. 600k, in progress.

Bakugou Bewitched — no ship. I can think of no better way to describe this fic than the term Platonic Bakudeku; the friendship is strong in this one. In summary, Bakugou is inflicted with the curse of obedience from Ella Enchanted. (I’ve never watched Ella Enchanted.) It makes his life increasing flavors of difficult, and the relationship between him and Midoriya is the most twisted spiked thing, and also stronger than the hardest steel. These two are inseparable—to Bakugou’s great distress. If you want a fic that treats the Bakugou-Izuku relationship like the insane shard of intensity that it is without once touching the line of romantic, this is the one. There’s also lots of neat Bakugou family content, which I don’t see often. 155k, complete.

sunshine in the library — Shinsou/Izuku. A vampire AU with the most beautiful feels, this fic is coming for your heart, and dragging a new OTP along with it. The plot is best described as a bundle of awesomeness with Shindeku the main and magnificent focus. Featuring: Izuku as a guy way in over his head, Shinsou as the brooding vampire who needs some light in his life, and Iida and Uraraka as vampire hunters who are rather unhelpfully misguided. They’re trying their best. The plot that’s planned out for this fic is fifty two forms of brilliant, and I can’t wait to read it all. 46k, in progress.

Where your love has always been enough (for me) — Enji/Rei. Endeavor time travels after his death to twenty years in the past; to a time before he broke his family. He doesn’t break it this time. Endeavor redemption arc, and a Todoroki family where only the father holds the weight of what he had once done. Where sometimes there’s a second chance. I dunno, but maybe the Todorokis need a little less angst inflicted on them, every now and then, and positive emotions, instead. You’ll definitely feel positive emotions reading this. 160k, in progress.

This Is Why We Have The Rules — no ship. Kirishima makes an entire chapter worth of accidental innuendos, Iida almost becomes the overlord of UA out of sheer exasperation plus a lack of sleep, and Ojiro is the only normal student in class 1A. That’s it, that’s the fic, and it’s one of the funniest things I have read in my entire life. 8k, in progress.

And that’s all for now! Thank you for reading!

[happyavenueluminary]

There are a lot of really cute, pure, and fluffy fics out there with new ones being made all the time. The key is to us ao3s tagging system to get exactly what you're looking for. Here is a post I found that has some of their fic recs, and they're all finished.

anyone have some nice kiribaku fics they recommend?

i had my first impression of the ship soured by a toxic fic and since then have had a hard time accepting them but i want to enjoy them (as a multishipper, i can absolutely see the potential) and want to see the good side. don't know where to start though, as i don't want to find a bad one again and be re-soured.

The “Our Bromance Is Outta This World” KiriBaku AU Fic Rec List

So... I've lost count of how many fic rec lists I've put out now, but the reasons remain the same as when I first started. I just love finding THAT fic that makes me happy, makes me smile, makes life seem a little better, and I wanna share the shit outta them!  I love sharing my admiration of the beautiful writers who have used their time and talent (for free), because after all, they are just as passionate as we are about the ships we choose to partake in.

Quirk Accident 2

favorite things by KBstories

“Because that’s the thing: Kirishima loves Bakugou, is pretty sure he’s in love with him, big red hearts and butterflies and all. And he was pretty sure that Bakugou doesn’t return those feelings, would’ve sworn it on his favorite signed Crimson Riot poster not even twenty-four hours ago.

But.

Kirishima has learned a lot of things about Bakugou since then.”

Kirishima gets hit by a mind-reading quirk. Bakugou gets involved, in more ways than one.

it started with a hoodie by shinsousshin

Finally, it dawns on him. The bushy mass of fur is attached to him. He has a tail. He has a fucking tail! This time he really does scream.

---

Bakugou gets hit with a quirk and it has some unintended side effects.

you are a call to motion by theyaremycrocs

Ashido frowns at him, at his red face and clammy hands. “Guys, I think she killed him. Wait, do you guys know those dramas about quirks that make you tell the truth? Because if that’s what this is-”

“Oh, hell no,” Katsuki says. “I’m shutting that down before it even starts- that isn’t what this is, Pinky-”

“How does Kiri look today?”

“Beautiful,” Katsuki lets slip without missing a beat, and then clasps a hand over his mouth, because, and he cannot stress this enough, what?

or; katsuki bakugo gets hit with a truth quirk, his friends are assholes, and he has the world's biggest crush on kirishima eijirou.

Day 12: Quirk Shenanigans a.k.a. So Much It Hurts by CurlyStar09

Bakugou is hit by a quirk that leaves him in excruciating pain. No one knows how to make it stop until Kirishima shows up to check on his friends.

Bad Timing by dragontrappedinhumanskin

Katsuki's not a very patient person, so he kind of hates it when Kirishima gets turned into a dog right after he'd said he had something important to tell him. Emphasize on 'kind of'.

--

“This is so weird,” Kaminari said.

Katsuki huffed, finally giving in and digging his fingers through Kirishima’s thick fur, and Kirishima’s tail wagged and he pushed into the touch with a small bark.

Petting Aggression by Cazuki

When Bakugou is struck by a quirk that combines him with a cat, Kirishima is assigned to assist him. What ensues can only be described as adorable and awkward.

Love Potion No. 9 by I_dont_know_man

"It's alright bro, I get it. Not everybody can handle all this pure manliness." Kirishima flexed a hardened bicep facetiously, grinning like the idiot he most certainly was.

...

And Bakugou - Bakugou blushed.

For the mere second time in 17 years of life, no less, and he was pretty sure that blushing over accidentally calling All Might ‘dad’ that one time didn’t count. Bakugou was an aloof, detached, analytical sort of person. Bakugou didn’t fucking blush, alright?

Just what in the ever-loving fuck was going on here?!

In which Bakugou finds himself victim of a love spell, Kirishima tries his Best, and the entirety of Class 1A waits for the other shoe to drop.

I Love You, I Love You, I Love You by starry_stan

Getting hit by a quirk that heightens the victim's last emotion to its breaking point sounds scary enough on its own. Pair that with Bakugou Katsuki, and you get Kirishima wishing he wasn't so deeply in love with the hot-headed blonde.

A dumb fic about Bakugou being an over-protective husbando, Kirishima practically combusting from embarrassment and Kaminari laughing so hard he nearly ruptures a lung.

catch you when you fall by pixiegold

--

“I accidentally used my quirk on him, he’s gonna be super honest for like three hours now, and I haven’t worked out how to stop it early yet! I’m so useless, I’m sorry!” She blurts out, and Kirishima blinks at her for a second, before looking at Bakugou. The boy stood next to her rolls his eyes and starts walking over to the nearest teacher like he’s done this a hundred times before.

"Three hours?" Kirishima mutters.

--

slow it down (go easy on me) by newamsterdam

It’s at that moment that Bakugou realizes something is very, very wrong. He glances down at himself and sees scars he’s never had before along his arms, little nicks and scratches he’d never have been oblivious to. When he reaches up, his limbs feel longer, and as he staggers to his feet he stands several centimeters taller than he had, last thing he knew. He glances at the mirror, catches sight of his reflection, and screams.

One of the doors on the opposite side of the room bursts open, steam spilling out into the bedroom. A man crosses the room in quick strides, looking around for some enemy he can’t yet see.

No, not just a man. Kirishima.

When a confrontation with a villain throws Bakugou through time, he's forced to face a future he never imagined, and maybe something he can't leave behind

quote love unquote by @newamsterdame

When Kirishima Eijirou's band hits the big time, he's not prepared for his newfound fame. He's even less prepared to meet the actor he's been crushing on for years, or to start dating him as a publicity stunt. The closer Kirishima gets to Bakugou Katsuki, the more he realizes he's in over his head. But it's hard to stop, once his heart is in it.

So, when his mother sets him up on a blind date with a weirdly bubbly girl with pink hair and dark eyes, he thinks he’s just about had it – and he’s not too shy to tell the girl just that.

To his surprise, though, she wholeheartedly agrees, and they come up with a plan, which works out pretty well until they are faced with a new problem; Mina’s childhood friend, Kirishima Eijirou.

Weekly Reading List - Christmas Special

I have a confession to make. I’m usually not a big fan of Christmas fics, because more often than not, they are Americanized, ignoring the way Japanese celebrate this holiday, and well, it’s often self-indulgent fluff, occasionally with slightly OOC characters. 

But after the absolute hell of a year 2020 has been, both in the manga, but also in the real scary big world, with many of us spending the holidays far away from our loved ones, we all deserve the self-indulgence of pure tooth-rotting fluff, and immerse ourselves into the warmth of love, friends and family feels. So this list was made in the spirit of curling up under a warm blanket with some hot chocolate or rum-spiked eggnog, and indulge yourself in that fuzzy feeling, knowing even if it seems far away right now, we’ll get there again. And if being happy right now feels like something that happens to other people, remember that letting yourself immerse into the joys of an imaginary world and live vicariously through your emotional comfort characters is self-care you deserve.

And if I missed some of your favorites, don’t hesitate to add your recommendations or make your own list to help spread the Christmas cheer.

Happy Holidays (wherever you are and whatever you may celebrate) to you all! Stay safe!

Candy Canes And Christmas Crackers by bigdorkenergy (PandaTanks)  (TDBK, Fake Dating Holiday Rom Com, Multichap) Todoroki being adored by the Bakugou Clan!

Making Love at Midnight by degradedpsychotic  (TDBK, Multichap) Bakugou being adored by the Todoroki clan! - this fic is E-rated, but the Christmas Chapters (2-3) are fairly smut-free, and can be read as a stand-alone, I think.

of gingerbread men and (maybe, just possibly) love by wonhaebunny (Gen, Oneshot, Baku-squad) - Bakusquad Xmas fluff

Of Concussions & Engagements by lalazee  (BKDK, Oneshot) - BKDK sucks at skating fluff

Furries Navidad by kriidsedovah  (EraserMic, Oneshot) - another skating fic. I adore them. 

Tender Traditions by SaysiWrites (BKDK, Oneshot) - Class 2-A Xmas fluff, with BKDK traditions

Hot Cocoa and Christmas Chaos by EllaBesmirched (El_Bell)  (TDBK, OneShot) - Another Todoroki meets the utter chaos of the Bakugou clan, this time they are real boyfriends

come what sleigh by dinosuns (TDBK, one-shot) - This is PEAK dumbass TDBK, with “surprise” Todoroki sucking at skating. I adore this fic so much.

christmas sweater get-together by todorokitops (BKDK, 2-chapters) - Christmas sweater is another sub-set of Xmas cute and BKDK need to learn to get along

For Warmth by castiiron (TDBK, 1-shot) - Another Xmas sweater fic, that’s too adorable for its own good.

Unread Emails by dimig0d (BKDK, oneshot) - BKDK are organizing a Xmas party which is an excuse for Bakugou to pour all his unresolved feelings into emails sent to Deku’s mailbox. They won’t ever get read, right?

winter's cold (warm me up) by ethydium  (TDBK, one-shot) - kotatsus are an amazing winter tradition, built for cuddly boyfriends.

Wrapped In Love by sincerelyjaime (KRBK - 2/2) - Bakugou is on a mission to find the perfect Christmas present for Kirishima.

Of Secret Santas and Secret Crushes by Daraya (TDBK, one-shot) - Todobaku Secret Santa with lots of pining.

A Little Christmas Cheer by CrzA (TDDK, one-shot) - Xmas fluff, in high-school setting

dear santa i was so naughty this year by Ejrin  (TDDK, KRBK) - social media fic, of Xmas chaos from pro-hero years

snow day by cassiopeia721 (Gen, Deku-squad) - the Deku-squad gets stuck at UA dorms 

Todoroki's First Christmas by Living_In_a_Fantasy  (TDDK, oneshot) - Class1a making up for Shouto’s lost childhood is a trope I can never get enough of. Here is a Christmas-y take.

a way around it by orphan_account (TDBK, oneshot) - third-years Christmas shopping together.

Technically a Christmas Movie by kowaidesuka  (KamiShin, oneshot) - this one made the list because I totally watch Die Hard every single Xmas too. 

Exploding Christmas by Avialle (TDBK, one-shot) - Shouto meets Bakugou’s parents.

I also recommend reading the Xmas Chapter of  playing with fire by ninanna for a really authentic feel of the Japanese way of celebrating Xmas. Also, it’s an amazing fic.

[ritualslaughter]

do you have any fic recommendations? anything that's your favourite?

absolutely I do!! here's a couple of my favourites in alphabetical order (under a cut cause I'm about to go wild):

attempts at earning love | T | 9.1k

pairing(s): shigaraki/dabi, bakugou/todoroki

Dabi: hey

Dabi: this is

Dabi: me

Dabi: touya

Dabi: fuck, don’t call me that

Dabi: or do, it’s fine

Dabi: maybe i’ll get used to it

Shouto: how did you get this number

Dabi: don’t worry about it

Dabi: you won’t like the answer

Shouto: well that’s reassuring

---

A year after the war ends, Dabi and Shouto reconnect.

I will never stop raving about this fic - it's SO good, the characterization is beautiful, dabi plays the piano, I cried, it's just great

-

Blindside | T | 98k

pairing(s): bakugou/kirishima

“You’re the first guy friend I’ve had that I can just like, be friends with. You’re either the most unthirstiest boy ever...” Camie shrugged and made another wobbly illusion appear between her hands. It looked like a sparkly rainbow with the word ‘friendship’ beneath it, accompanied by what Bakugou assumed was supposed to be a twinkling sound effect, but it had a tinny quality to it and sounded far away. “...or I just ain’t got the kinda straw you like to ssssip.”

Carefully, Bakugou considered the strange turn this conversation had taken.

He had never been asked, point blank, if he was gay before. And he honestly had never thought about how he would respond. Lying about himself didn’t sit right with him. But he’d always wanted to wait until he was the number one hero - when he stood above everyone else - before coming out. Though he’d had times when he’d thought about doing it before then and had almost gone through with it once. But being the number one hero came first. It wouldn’t matter what people would say about it then as long as he’d risen to the top.

Bakugou knew his lack of a response would give Camie all the answers she needed.

THIS !!!!!!! such a good slow burn, the action sequences are AWESOME, plus it features bakugou/camie friendship which is my ultimate kryptonite

-

body of years (take it to your grave) | T | 3.7k

pairing(s): shigaraki/dabi

”Someone’s gotta make sure I stay on the straight and narrow, or whatever,” Tenko says, leaning down to detangle the laces of his sneakers. ”Since you aren’t doing the job.”

Touya scoffs from his seat at the table, soles of his feet balanced carefully against the edge of his chair. ”As if you were ever going to be on the straight and narrow.”

(or; the semi-ordinary lives of Dabi and Shigaraki, years after the end of the world).

I know I've raved about this fic before but it CONTINUES to blow me away - I reread it earlier this week and OOF. touya reads t. s. Eliot, tenko and izuku get lunch, once again I am crying

Candy Canes And Christmas Crackers | T | 104k

pairing(s): bakugou/todoroki

“So….your huge family somehow all think that you have a long term boyfriend and are insisting that you bring him to your week long Christmas family reunion?” Despite his efforts the end of his question raised in pitch as Kirishma swallowed down a giggle.

“How does that even happen?” Kaminari added popping some of the hashbrowns Bakugou made into his mouth.

-

OR your classic holiday romcom where Bakugou needs a fake boyfriend to bring home for Christmas and Todoroki is willing to take that bullet.

listen... I don't even like christmas fics but this one SERIOUSLY made me reconsider that opinion. it's got all the good fluffy family fun, fireworks, and fake dating you could ever want!

-

Hate Is a Strong Word | E | 5.1k

pairing(s): shigaraki/dabi

Shigaraki hates Dabi. That's why he wants to fuck him. But if he fucks him too hard, Dabi will break. Maybe if he gets creative, he can break Dabi in a less literal way.

AKA, Shigadabi can't have rough sex because of Shigaraki's quirk and Dabi's scars, so they proceed to have the most gentle hate sex known to man. But maybe hate is too strong of a word...

😃😃😃

-

history has its eyes on you | T | 16.6k

pairing(s): midoriya/todoroki, bakugou/kirishima, momo/jirou

Midoriya looked over the occupants of the room with butter soft eyes. “We should do this again. Seeing everyone in one place … it’s like we’re back in school again.”

Todoroki said, “It feels like a family reunion.”

-

(Social media fic, counting down the five months to Class 1-A's ten year reunion.)

SOCIAL MEDIA FICS MY BELOVED 💖 also, I've been following aloneintherain's stuff for years and they never disappoint - their writing is just incredible omg

-

Just Fucking Kill Me | E | 3.9k

pairing(s): shigaraki/dabi

“Gods I fucking h- hate you,” Tomura thrashes, entire body drawing taut like a bowstring as Dabi curls his fingers inside him. It’s good, it’s so good, and he’s not sure how he’s still breathing.

Dabi, on the other hand, looks as calm as can be, posture lazy and expression lazier. He’s not even looking at Tomura, eyes cast to the screen of the latest phone he’d ‘borrowed’ and scrolling through some pointless website. Tomura doesn’t give a fuck what he’s looking at, really, or if he’s talking to anyone, what he does care about is the fact that Dabi’s fingering him and not paying attention.

I have absolutely no excuse for this other than that it makes me Feel Things

After a sudden shift in weather turns a wilderness rescue test into a real emergency, Katsuki and Izuku take on a rainstorm, a mountain, and their own worse natures to make it out alive.

---

Katsuki let out another unsteady breath, but it was a laugh rather than a sob. “You’re a piece of shit.”

“A piece of shit that you carried down a mountain!” Izuku shot back cheerfully.

Soulmates 2

pickup lines and valentines by aloera

“Hey, isn’t that Kirishima’s hoodie?”

“Yes.”

“Why are you wearing Kirishima’s hoodie?”

“He’s my boyfriend.”

Ochako grins, ruffling his hair. “You’re so cute, Katsuki, honestly. Like, you’re the only person who thinks that pretending to date Kirishima is somehow less embarrassing than just admitting you’re cold.”

Bakugou and Kirishima find out that they're soulmates after two years of dating. Their friends are more than a little out of the loop.

Heart Strings by starofjems

Red. Red was all Bakugou could see sometimes. His father called this ability to see strings of fate a gift. Bakugou called it curse. He never wanted to be fate's pawn, never wanted to willingly play its games. More than anything, Bakugou had never wanted to know who was at the end of his string.

There was no turning back.

Little Words by nightmoonz

Everyone has a Soulmate, and the words you're born with are the first words your Soulmate says directly to you.

Bakugou was born with only one word, one word that is said far too often, so when Bakugou enters UA the last thing he expects is to find his Soulmate.

his is the sun by bwyn

“Now that is how you score a goal!” laughs Eijirou.

Bakugou doesn’t look at him until Eijirou’s hand comes down on his shoulder—then it’s the full power of eyes like fire and a grin like the god of war blasting Eijirou. He freezes for a beat, and in the time it takes for him to recover, Bakugou has already left Eijirou to jog back to the centerline, accepting whoops and hollers from his teammates with a slasher smile.

Eijirou has—seriously—never been more glad to have him on their team.

-----

An AU in which Kirishima and Bakugou meet on the soccer field and things spiral from there.

firedancer by kiroiimye

Eijirou has learned to love, from his mothers, his sisters, and Crimson Riot, and it shows on his body, in the way that the flowers are colored and several are stemmed and rooted, how he doesn’t have many flower scars and bruises, from where the flowers fade away.

But Bakugou? There’s barely an inch of color on him, only displaying pearly pale skin. Perhaps in another world, showing such simple skin is normal, but in the world they live in, where Quirks reigned dominant and floral tattoos are the norm, Bakugou is the outcast.

In which Kirishima Eijirou has been in love with his best friend for all of three years and the flower tattoos on his back just keep growing.

Heart Made For Taking Flight by timetoboldlygo

"You seem like you have a good soul, Bakugou," Kirishima grinned, acting like that was something sensible people said.

"That's the worst reason to save someone's life I've ever heard," Katsuki scoffed. "And I don't have a good soul." He'd know better than anyone.

-

Katsuki trusted things he could see, things he could feel. Things he could back up with his own power. Souls were not included, so he didn't necessarily believe they existed. Really, he didn't even think about them, or hearts, or true love, or any of that bullshit. He didn't know or care if it existed and he didn't need to know, either.

Slowly but surely, one Kirishima Eijirou saves his life, remains by his side, and changes his mind.

Achromatopsia by PurplePersnickety

They lifted Bakugou up, Eijirou’s breath sliced into his lungs for a moment, and colour splashed across his vision. But the cavalry battle was about to begin. There was no time to consider it, or laugh, or talk, or do anything but meet Bakugou’s red eyes, red framed by yellow-gold-pale hair, and bare his teeth in readiness.

____

Until you meet your soulmate, you only see one colour. When you touch your soulmate for the first time, the true colours of the world appear.

Unless, perhaps, you're colour-blind.

Tiger Lily by LunarFlare64

Kirishima Eijirou didn't want to stick his soulmate with something as permanent as a tattoo, not without permission.

Apparently his soulmate didn't feel the same way.

A tattoo war, of sorts? Playful tattoo drama? It's hard to explain but it works for them.

Soulmate AU where whatevers drawn on your skin appears on your soulmate's, and in a world like that tattoos are taken very seriously.

someone has to know by TuesdayTerrible

In which Kirishima gets hit with a quirk that leads him to the truth he's always known, and the sacrifice he's willing to make for it.

Or Bakugou Katsuki loses his best friend.

Now I'm Covered in the Colors... by CharWright5

Kirishima thought he didn't have a Soul Mate. Kirishima thought his crush's Soul Mate was someone else. Turns out, he was wrong about everything...

Let Me Know Where I Can Go To Save My Soul by sodomizzerr

Children get a single vision of their soulmate when they're around five, and only for a few minutes. And as much as Bakugou would love to have Shitty-Hair as his soulmate, he knows damn well the little fuck he saw had black hair and flat teeth.

show me where it hurts by JustAKilljoy

Bakugou's beginning to have panic attacks at night, ones that don't belong to him. In which Bakugou learns to love someone else, and Kirishima learns to love himself.

Soulmate AU
