    Summary

    Pro hero Ground Zero's apartment has just been crushed flat by Mt. Lady, but his boss, Fat Gum, sets him up with a sweet body guard gig that comes with free housing, food, and 24/7 access to the world's foremost genius of support gear. The only problem? Said scientist is being targeted by the League of Villains. Oh, and it's Midoriya Izuku--the kid he hasn't seen since telling the boy to take a swan dive off the roof of their middle school.

     

    (I'm terrible at titles. Also summaries. Bodyguard trope goodness. Please read.)

    Summary

    This is the way the world works: the sun rises in the east. The strong come out on top. Bakugou Katsuki rockets through life like a comet and Midoriya Izuku stumbles after. If he believed in such things Katsuki would say it was written in the stars. That some god of war had looked at him and said this one. That he’d been passed along a line to get his blessings – genius, willpower, fearless ambition – and dropped off on earth.

    Then, of course, there is the question of Deku. The spitfire runt. Deku, no matter what the world does to him, never stops hoping.

    Until, of course, he eventually does.

     

    (Katsuki broke him. Snapped him in half like a twig and now has to scramble to put Deku back together. “We can do this, Deku," he says slowly. "There are so many mysteries that never got put to bed. Criminals roaming around looking to hurt people and you and me, we can fix that.

    There’s a long pause. The comforter slips a little off Deku’s skinny shoulders and drowns him. “You mean like a team?”

    In that split second, Katsuki makes a decision he’s never even considered. He swallows his pride. “Yeah, Deku. We’d be a team.”)

    Summary

    “H-Hi, Kacchan.”

    “Hey.”

    “What’s— um, what’s up?” Izuku asks nervously, bouncing on his toes.

    Katsuki crosses his arms across his chest and stares at him, his face blank.

    “‘What’s fucking up?’” Katsuki narrows his eyes, and Izuku gulps, “Let’s discuss the last fucking month, shall we?”

     

    or, after Izuku gets back to UA, Katsuki finally gets to yell at him.

    Summary

    “I’m not a hero. Or a good person,” Katsuki says, giving Aizawa a pointed look, “So leave me alone. I don’t care about the League or UA, or you—” The two years he’s been away have been fine, more than fine, fucking fantastic actually if you ignore the bi-monthly near-death experiences. He doesn’t need this place. He doesn’t miss this place.

    And yet, longing, a childish desire to tear up, or maybe blow something to bits, they all twist in his chest like a band of traitors regardless. “—I just want to go home.”

    Or: the one where Katsuki and Izuku fail the first term exam, Aizawa discovers their pasts, and Katsuki is booted from UA. Featuring questionable descriptions of villain organizations, a slightly illegal moving shop, and your favorite emotionally constipated badass in distress with a newly discovered penchant for collecting strays.

    Summary

    After Katsuki shows up to the dorms drunk after a night spent at his mother's house, some things become extremely apparent to his classmates and teachers.
    One: Katsuki will refuse to admit anything is ever wrong.
    Two: There's something wrong with Katsuki, something very wrong, and they have no idea what it is.
    Three: Katsuki is in a violent downward spiral, and no one knows how to help.

    Or,
    Katsuki always attracts the worst in his life. For as long as he can remember, nothing was ever easy and painless. This especially comes true as he starts his UA high school journey. Now he has dangerous, slippery nightmares he can't explain, a mother who seems intent on beating the villain out of him, and nosy teachers asking all of the wrong questions. To top it off, his classmates are watching him more closely than ever before.
    Katsuki isn't sure what will come first- him splintering into pieces under the pressure, or everyone learning the truth. To make it worse, he has no idea which of those options he'd prefer.
