    Summary

    Katsuki Bakugou, lead singer and the star of an up-and-coming rock band, needs to write a set amount of love songs as per the contract with his label.

    The bad news is: he sucks at it. The even worse news is: they need to hire a dorky-looking lyricist who always manages to get on Katsuki's nerves to help them out.

    ━━━━━━━━𝄞━━━━━━━━

    Izuku Midoriya is elated to be the lyricist for one of the coolest new bands of the century, really he is!

    But it would've been... a lot more enjoyable if the hotheaded lead singer didn't glare at him so harshly every time they work together! This is going to be a very difficult partnership indeed.

    Summary

    That well of frustration building in Izuku’s chest finally snaps. He follows after him. “Fucking say something for once,” he yells at his back.

    Katsuki whirls around. "I have been saying shit, you fucking idiot! Begging you on my hands and knees, I've been saying shit!" He steps forward into Izuku’s space. "Stop hurting yourself! Stop being reckless! Stop risking your damn life!"

    -

    "The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief—but the pain of grief is only a shadow when compared with the pain of never risking love."

    Summary

    When a pair of heavy combat boots thump onto the asphalt in front of him, he’s almost certain it has to be an exhaustion-induced hallucination. Standing mere feet away from Katsuki is a mirror image of himself. Taller, older maybe, and different in many ways—but the same face, the same scowl, the same scars, the same sharp red eyes.

    “What are you, a shitty cosplayer?” the knock-off Dynamight asks, voice huskier than his own.

    It’s so bizarre that Katsuki has to shake his head in the hopes it’ll dispel the mirage. It doesn’t.

    “Funny,” he replies with a deadly glower, holding the unconscious girl tighter in his arms, “I was about to ask you the damn same thing.”

    *** or ***

    Who would Katsuki grow up to be in a world where Deku didn't make it out of the final battle, and how can he find his way home to the Deku who's still waiting for him?

    Summary

    "—Oh my gosh, you remember when we were little and we’d play that game!?”

    Bakugo scowls, “What game?”

    “You know, the game you made up. We’d trade secrets and the winner would get to—”

    “That wasn’t a game. That was just an excuse to punch you, moron,” Katsuki argues, waving the bottle around expressively, “You never had a secret better than ‘I think Kacchan is the best!’ and I would save up lame gossip for the excuse to hit you without dealing with the tears.”

    ----- a.k.a. -----

    Katsuki sneaks off from Uraraka and Momo's charity gala to hide out in the dining room, and Izuku follows him with a bottle of champagne and ideas for some games they could play. So what if they spill some truth and make a mess along the way?

    Turning a childhood hazing ritual into a drinking game, finally confessing shit they should've talked about years ago, getting in their feelings, and then fucking on a dining room table about it.

    Summary

    Because Katsuki twisted, and broke, and ruined, and cornered himself, bent himself into an unrecognisable shape, in order to keep Izuku with him, in this incomplete, infuriating form of nothing and more-than-something. He was degrading himself, settling for something less-than-first, all because of the — what?

    In which Katsuki and Izuku don't know how to be in love with each other, or even whether they can or should be in love with each other, but can't stay away.

    Title from the song of the same name, by Laufey and The Philharmonia Orchestra
