Summary
Familiarity in grimy cheeks smeared with dirt; Izuku's eyes are half-lidded in exhaustion, and his mouth mumbles out words inarticulate. It opens, breathes, closes.
From above, Katsuki watches with narrowed eyes like a hawk for the right moment to strike; his hands are impassive weapons, so he will brandish them as such. It's what feels right, what's natural.
A hand gloved in nylon and leather, so filthy and threadbare it’s barely even white anymore, reaches out towards the sky with wavering. Thus, without a second to spare, entirely unwavering, Katsuki circles a hand in front of his candescent palms.
This’ll be easy, he thinks. Easy like breathing, like earthshaking rage.What if post-rescue night had gone just a little differently?

Summary
Kacchan wipes at his cheek with the heel of his hand. “He just… I couldn’t be with anyone else. I can’t, I really can’t.”
“He’s it for you. Yeah.” Katsuki smiles.
“Yeah.” Kacchan takes a steadying breath. “I know he’s got all kinds of issues and stuff and he’s a fucking shithead and he’s super annoying, but it’s whatever. It’s—I just like him.”
*
Katsuki goes back to himself from after the war.

Summary
“That’s heavy, Deku,” Katsuki finally drawls out, and it resounds a little bit like a teasing remark, especially with how rarely the blond uses his nickname these days. “Letting out my feelings for you as much as I want won’t make your days normal like before. Do you get that?”
“I don’t care,” Izuku says, straightening himself a bit more. “I don’t mind. Let it all out.”
“You hearing yourself?” A slim, blond eyebrow is slowly being lifted. “You don’t even like me, dumbass.”
Or, Bakugo Katsuki confesses his love for Midoriya Izuku the same way he does everything: bluntly. It starts the strangest Game of Gay Chicken in existence. Class 3-A is exasperated.

Summary
"What about you, Midoriya-sensei? Has anyone ever made something like that for you?"
The class goes ohhh before going silent and expectantly staring at their teacher, who has suddenly gone very still.
Oh.
Inevitably, the image of a briefcase pops up in his mind, containing a hero suit and all of his dreams, given to him by the only person who could be stubborn enough to spend so much time working to make it happen without asking for anything in return.
He thinks of an extended hand and blond hair, on deep red eyes and star-shaped scars.
On how difficult things get when you grow up.
or
Eight years after the war, Izuku is forced to stop running from himself.

Summary
"The Prince returned today! Everyone was at the market to see him come by!"
Mitsuki perked up instantly, eyes big and shoulders relaxing. "The Prince? My, he's been gone for some time, now. Since puphood."
"He's old enough to marry and take the crown, now," an older man muttered as he walked by, "They must bring him back to find him a suitor and prepare him for the throne."
"Why are ya so damn invested in the fuckin' prick?" Katsuki's lip curled in disdain, arms folded as he slouched back against a tree. "He's just another fuckin' royal that'll have fun come Hunt Season."
Mitsuki shot him a glare, Denki visibly wilting behind her at the mention of the dreaded season.
"I oughta wash your fuckin' mouth, Katsuki. We do not talk about Hunt Season, ya hear?"
"It's our fuckin' way of life, hag," he snapped back. "Can't pretend it doesn't fuckin' exist! It does! Happens every fuckin' year!"

Summary
A year ago, Izuku's friends gifted him something he thought he lost forever: the chance to be the hero he'd always dreamed of. Now he's back in the game, blessed with a rising pro career on top of getting to teach his favourite topic in the world.
It's everything he's ever wanted—everything he's worked hard for.
So why does it feel like a life he hasn't earned? How could he even dare to want more? And why do his hopes and fears still lead back to Kacchan?

Summary
“Satoru?” The word rings, fuzzy in his ears as it whines like tinnitus, familiar and heart stopping.
‘I’m dead.’ He can’t even hear his own thoughts over the loudness of the world, staggering where he stands, eyes still fixated on the sky, on the sun. ‘I’m dead, I died, I felt my heart stop, this can’t be, it can’t-’
“Hey,” it comes again, a little more urgent than before, a little closer, another hammer to his ears and all the noise shrieking behind his eyes. He recoils hard enough to go stumbling as a hand reaches for him, covered in flesh rather than empty bone, tan and recognizable. Unbelievable.
There’s something wet trickling from his nose. Bile stings on the back of his tongue. The words dissolve into the rest of the white noise as he stares up at the blue of the sky, and tries to remember if he’d ever had a hallucination as bright as this.
‘I have to be dead,’ he thinks. Somehow, he isn’t.
Or: Gojo Satoru goes back in time. He makes a couple of changes for the better.

Summary
LONG fic charting the marauders' time at Hogwarts (and beyond) from Remus' PoV - diversion from canon in that Remus's father died and he was raised in a children's home, and is a bit rough around the edges. Otherwise canon-compliant.
1971 - 1995This IS a wolfstar fic, but incredibly slow burn. Literally years. Long build up but worth it I promise!
PLEASE DO NOT COPY TO WATTPAD. SERIOUSLY, WHY??

Summary
"I’m not gonna die, Kacchan,” He glances down, and Bakugou’s hand moves off his stomach when he realizes it's been laying there a bit longer than it should. “unless you wanna confess all your secrets to me if you think I will, be my guest.”
He snorts, ugly. Deku’s lips perk.
Katsuki and Deku get stuck under a collapsed building on a mission with Aizawa; it goes a lot more different than either of them expected.
(Or: the thousandth thought-sharing quirk fic nobody asked for.)

Summary
"We're really sorry," his father says, in a teary-eyed, wobbly way. "But your friend, Izuku, he's... He's gone, son."
Katsuki can do nothing but blink up at them for moments that feel like an eternity, eyes darting between both his parents in obvious confusion, disbelief, and, more than anything, indignation.
"What the fuck are you two talking about? The damn nerd is standing right beside you!"During a battle, Midoriya gets hit by a villain whose quirk detaches his soul from his body. Stuck in a ghost-like state, the boy enters a race against time in order to save himself from permanently dying. Much to his luck - or lack of it -, the only person who can see and talk to him in this state is no one other than Kacchan.
Alternatively: Deku and Kacchan are soulbound.

Golden eyes flicker down from his eyes to his mouth, then travel lower.
Neteyam reaches out and grabs the small shell he had strung up as a necklace, and Aonung's heart is hammering wildly. For a second, he fears Neteyam might rip it off and take this thing that always reminds him of the other boy away. But he just holds it in a loose grip, examining.
His calloused hand is warm on his sternum, knuckles grazing his skin."What happened to not letting things fester, Aonung?"
In which Aonung let's the internalized prejudices and self-doubt get the better of him, but Neteyam believes in second chances.
