Summary
“I don’t know what’s wrong with me,” he sobs out, hands automatically coming to to clench at his hair. Like if he pulls hard enough he’ll break open his scalp and see his brain, be able to dig around for an answer inside. “What- what’s wrong with me?” He’s begging even without saying please.
He used to stay silent in his bedroom, refusing to even listen to music through his headphones in case it was too loud. But now he knows that neither Aizawa or Yamada hear him, not unless they’re right outside his door. He can cry and he can talk to himself and go can go absolutely fucking insane and they’ll be none the wiser.
Sometimes he yearns to call out, hopes one of the heroes will hear and come save him. He opens his mouth, words tingling on his tongue, just to sob so hard he shuts himself up.
How can they comfort him from something he can’t explain?
He doesn’t have an eating disorder. He has no reason to feel like this. There’s nothing they can do for him if there’s nothing wrong.

Bookmarker's Notes
gut-level processing of eating disorder (read: PTSD). not humorous/hopeful (author explains why at end). good read for getting sensitized to others' experiences

Summary
It wasn’t until Todoroki fell in love that Bakugou discovered two things about his roommate he hadn’t known before: 1) Todoroki was a fruitcake. 2) He was awkward as hell when it came to love. The latter was more of a surprise than the former; anyone who dyed his hair like that couldn’t not be gay.
“His name’s Midoriya,” Todoroki said, probably sighing with lovesickness and disgustingness under his resting bitch face. “And he's amazing.”Or,
That college AU in which Bakugou suffers as an unwilling love guru, is surrounded by dumbasses, and falls in love himself.

Summary
“I don’t believe you’re in love with me.” Shinsuke tells him. “I think you look up to me, might have a crush. But it’s not love.”
Atsumu’s jaw ticks, his eyes now glassy, shining with abrupt tears he doesn’t shed.
“Mingle with people, look up to somebody else and see if it’s the same feeling. Date somebody. Explore your emotions. Compare them. And if you’re still as certain as you are now - I’ll say yes.”
