Chapter Text
To the old man and the old hag. Read this if I’m dead or whatever.
You better not be snooping through my shit and reading this if I’m alive, because then we’re going to have some fucking problems. Anyway, do you know how weird it is to write a letter to someone as if you’re not alive? Like I’m breathing right now as I write this, I can feel the fucking paper with my hands and hear mom screaming at something (probably really stupid) downstairs. I’m fucking alive as shit right now.
This letter will probably end up being burnt, because I plan on being here to annoy you guys for a very long time. If I’m not, though, then I hope you know that I’m haunting your asses. Not in a creepy way or anything, I’m saving that for Deku. If I leave him alone for too long he’ll probably burst into tears or something, the fucking cry baby.
You both know I’m not good at expressing my feelings. Fuck, I don’t even know what to write in this stupid fucking letter. I don’t know if this’ll make things worse for you or better, but I decided that for once in my life, I’m gonna be honest with you. I’m writing this because I love you. There. I’m not gonna say it again. If I really am dead, which I’m probably not but whatever, I don’t want to leave this world without you ever hearing that shit from me, because I do, and you deserve to know it. You were good parents to me, even though I wasn’t always a good son to you.
But because I’m trying to be better, and because I’m alive right now, I’m gonna metaphorically smack some sense into you because dead Katsuki is obviously not able to do it beyond the fucking grave. Don’t stay sad for the rest of your lives. I’m not asking you to pretend I never died or to be back to normal right away, but I promise you that I will be really fucking angry if you waste your lives wallowing over me. Just don’t do it. Or do, and I’ll kill you when we meet again. I’ve got hero training now and I’m not afraid to beat your motherfucking asses. Don’t test me. Also, can you tell my group of idiots (Kirishima, Ashido, Kaminari, and Sero) that I don’t actually think they’re dumbasses and that I liked them or whatever? And at this point you’re reading this because I’m a pile of bones in the ground so I don’t care since I’m not gonna be there to do it, could you tell Deku that I’m fucking proud of him when he becomes the number one hero? Actually fuck that, don’t tell them anything. Dead Katsuki is cringing. You’re probably gonna do it anyways. Fuck.
Hopefully me saying this isn’t me jinxing things or whatever, but I’m probably not fucking dead because I’m going to fight the hardest I’ve ever fought to survive this shit show that Hands has created. So, again, even though you’re most likely not reading this right now, I’m gonna write this shit anyway before I change my mind. When I get home and there’s no more League of Shitheads and All For One, you can get ONE hug. I’m feeling nice today.
Here’s to me becoming a better fucking son to you old fuckers. It was long overdue.
Love,
Katsuki
