    Summary

    “Are you feeling alright, Kacchan?” Izuku asked softly.

    “I’m fine, nerd,” Katsuki responded, just as quietly. “Quit asking.”

    “Even here?”

    They stopped walking, and Katsuki watched with heavy, tired eyes as Izuku slowly, carefully, brought his hand up to rest on his chest. Over his heart.

    “It… feels kind of fast,” Izuku muttered, voice strained with worry and exhaustion. “Is that normal?”

    “…yeah,” Katsuki said after a brief pause.

    It’s normal when you’re around.

    For some reason, Katsuki felt like the fading of One For All correlated with the fading of Izuku from the picture of his life. It wasn’t like he’d never see him again, but it wouldn’t be the same.

    There had to be more than surviving just to watch One For All die and Izuku retire from heroics. That couldn't be the end of their story.

    All Katsuki knew for sure was that the more Izuku faded from his life, the more uncertain and dark everything became.

    Summary

    "I'm still incredibly upset with you,” Hyunggu admitted, just so it was out in the open. Wooseok nodded, avoiding his eyes. “But this is a job. So I'm going to do what I have to do until the job is over."

    Hyunggu didn’t do anything half-heartedly. He didn’t as a kid, and he sure as hell wouldn’t now, no matter how he was feeling.

    “A job, right,” Wooseok said, nodding again. He let go of Hyunggu’s hand to push his hair out of eyes. Hyunggu snatched his hand back, curling himself up again, ignoring the way his heart stung. So much for building his tolerance. “What’s the plan then, boss?

    -

    It's been years since Hyunggu last saw Wooseok, his former best friend, and he never expected them to meet like this. After the two of them have acted as if the other didn't exist, they're suddenly in a "relationship" and the leap from not having Wooseok at all to having all of him at once is enough to make Hyunggu's head spin. But, like every other problem in his life, he's determined to combat it head on. Even if that means confronting feelings he told himself were long gone.

    Summary

    Hua Cheng is passion and loyalty personified when he speaks, his voice a raw whisper. “Let me love you. Let me show you. I promise you, I’ll never leave you. I’ll never hurt you. I’ll forever be devoted to you, and only you.”

    Xie Lian used to think he had experienced every emotion there was to experience in this world, but he was wrong. Being loved by Hua Cheng is like being a butterfly, delicate and precious, held in the cusp of his hands with all the gentleness in the world, being kept safe from the raging winds and the way people could be cruel. And suddenly, everything he’s ever done makes sense to him, it means something now, all because Hua Cheng sees him. He knows him.

    One person is enough.


    Or: A post-canon story of Hua Cheng and Xie Lan talking and learning and exploring intimacy together.
