    Summary

    "Sparky," Katsuki turned and laid a hand on Kaminari's shoulder. "I need you to know that the position of Best Man at our wedding is between you and a fucking dragon, so start psyching yourself up to fight for it."

    "A what?" Kaminari repeated faintly.


    Bakugou Katsuki currently experiences three major problems with his life:

    1. He helped a dragon with a broken leg once and now it keeps showing up outside his house all the time.
    2. He has a huge hopeless crush on the guy with the red hair and the freaky teeth who just moved into the village.
    3. He has no idea what to do about either of the above.

    Summary

    “Goddammit,” he mutters, but stomps towards the cheery little shop anyways. A little bell rings out as he throws the door open. He scowls at the patrons that turn and look at him. He closes the door with a bit more grace before slinking towards the counter. There is one person behind it, their back to him as they trace chalk words onto a sign. Their black hair pulled into a low ponytail, and dusted with a thin layer of flour. Bakugo frowns and clears his throat to get their attention. He was hoping Ashido’s shitty friend would just be here and he wouldn’t have to ask anyone.

    “Oh, hello!”

    Bakugo is taken aback by the sharp teeth that grin at him. They should look unnatural against the mirth filled red eyes and soft face. They don’t though, they accent it nicely, very nicely. Black bangs fall across his face and he twitches his head to move them out of his eyes. Bakugo feels his ears burn, and clenches his fists in defiance to them.

    Summary

    Kirishima somehow accidentally becomes a supervillain, because that's something that normally happens, right?

    (It doesn't. Kirishima is just abnormally, astronomically, and exceptionally unlucky.)

    In which Kirishima is always in the wrong place at the wrong time and has convinced half of the hero ranks that he's some sort of diabolical mastermind who keeps getting away. When in reality, he's just a simple barista with big dreams and an even bigger crush on the manly hero who always orders a caramel macchiato.

    ...and also happens to be trying to throw Kirishima into prison.

    Summary

    The rowdy one introduces himself as Kirishima, and for just a second, Bakugou takes a chance to really look at him and he’s burning red.

    His eyes are familiar and Bakugou recognizes him still, only now his hair is dyed a cardinal red, a few tinges of pink staining the back of his neck. And as he turns to leave, suddenly Bakugou is nine again, staring distantly at another pretty boy with a firetruck-colored backpack, and a familiar flicker passes through his chest. It’s slight—a burning flame no more powerful than a lighter, but it’s there.

    And like a moth, Kirishima is drawn to the flame.

    Or, Bakugou is prone to anger, but a growing bond with Kirishima gives him a new understanding of "seeing red."

    Summary

    “Have you kissed anyone, before?”

    There’s dandelions in his eyes. Post-sunset glow. Two wandering hands. Bakugou’s lungs are torture chambers, and the question in Kirishima’s mouth, hopeful. [two words: kissing practice].

    Summary

    Based loosely on the musical “Company” by Stephen Sondheim. Requested as a Twitter prompt by @keraekun

    Summary

    Bakusquad break into an abandoned asylum with a history even darker than they could have imagined. When Kaminari is stupid enough to swipe some patient files the group find themselves in the presence of an incredibly charming, and completely confused ghost by the name of Kirishima. After some pleading and appealing to their compassion with his plea of having been trapped for three hundred years already, the group decide that they must take it upon themselves to finally put his soul to rest. What they uncover are harsh realities more terrifying than they had ever prepared for, and for Bakugo, perhaps a glimpse into previous life that he has no recollection of living. Well, that would explain why this ghost boy is so weird around him at least.

    Summary

    “I shouldn’t have moved out of the way,” Katsuki sighs. “I should have let that fucking asshole hit us, honestly, a broken back would be better than this.”
    Masochist, Eijirou thinks and, in the second right before Katsuki chokes and focuses intensely on salvaging what's left of their midnight haul, he realizes that this might be a problem.

    Bakugou and Kirishima get hit by a quirk that lets them hear each others' thoughts. It goes much better (and much worse) than either of them expect.

    Summary

    He clicked the pen his therapist had given him, opening the first page. In big letters, he wrote, “Reasons To Live: 1-100.”

    Then, he flipped to the middle of the journal. He paused, felt-tip inches from the page. This was gonna be another mistake to add to his long-running list, wasn’t it?

    Caving, he put the pen to the page.

    “Reasons to Die: 1-100.”

    The idea was simple; old as time.

    First to one hundred wins.

    ***

    After being kicked from the friend group his second year, radio silence from Bakugou over the summer, and a suicide attempt, Kirishima starts to spiral when he returns to UA.

    Bakugou walks back into his life wanting to know why his hair is black all of the sudden.

    Summary

    Kirishima brings up Bakugou one day as he and Kaminari are eating together in the campus cafeteria. Super casual, like yeah-I-saw-this-guy-on-TV-once, and not I’ve-watched-literally-every-single-interview-he’s-ever-even-been-in-the-background-of-and-wouldn’t-mind-having-his-babies.

    “Oh, him,” Kaminari says. “Eh, he’s popular lately, I guess. Don’t see what all the hype's about.”

    Kirishima feels lightheaded. “You—you don’t see the hype—” he splutters. “He’s incredible, dude.”

    Kaminari just eyes him.

    Katsuki stares at the ceiling hollowly, silently praying.

    O great quirk god, he prays. Come on. Just. Shut his ass up, please. Just get him out of my room.

    He even said please, goddammit.

    Summary

    “What kind of hero am I if I let people down just because they’re supposed to be above my help?”

    Katsuki doesn’t have anything to say to that. Kirishima’s right. Neither of them has ever been the type to run from a fight and Kirishima, especially, is undyingly loyal.

    Katsuki’s argument isn’t anywhere near as noble. It’s selfish, cut clean and dry. He knows that Kirishima holds himself to the same standards that Katsuki holds himself to, that he needs to win, needs to know that he did everything in his power to help other people.

    But Katsuki needs Kirishima to come home safe.

    or

    Five times that Kirishima doesn't get it, and one time he does.

    Summary

    Kirishima made it out alive but his body is covered in wounds that won't heal without leaving marks behind. He hides them away from the sight of others, away from his own, and he hates every part of it. Bakugou watches him reduce his own character to a parody of what it used to be, and he can't stand it.

    Or how Bakugou and Kirishima learn to deal with these scars, with themselves, with each other.

    Summary

    Sometimes Eijirou fantasised about the day he’d come out as asexual.

    His friends would hug him, tell him they still thought of him the same, and Bakugou would still hold his hand and kiss his forehead and tell him it was okay.

    But he’d have to think about the others shunning him, saying how surprised they were and slowly closing off as their speech around him changed while they realised just how much they should ‘catch their tongues’. He had to think about Bakugou glaring at him with steely eyes so different to the warm ones he reserved for Eijirou. He had to think about him saying, ‘you’re not enough’.

    Eijirou wanted to be enough.

    All he'd ever wanted in life was to be enough.

    Summary

    “That story is very personal to Dr. Bakugou. I’m not going to hand it out willy-nilly to anyone who isn’t in it for the long haul—it has to be earned. So here’s the deal: make it to the end of your shift without resigning your position, and I’ll spin you a tale.”

    In the morning, there would have been scoffing. At mid-morn, they would have asked him if he was serious. But it’s lunch-time now, and they’ve each seen first-hand how tough the next year is going to be, how hard they’re going to have to work if they want to get through this. He sees it in their eyes—the resolve solidifying.

    It’s not just about the story. It’s not about Eijirou and his scars, or about their curiosity. It’s about fortitude, perseverance—about adversaries, fights, and victory. It’s about learning what motivates people, what drives them. And, more than all of that, it’s about finding the people who will help you rise to the very top.
