    Summary

    ‘You’re awfully bold lately.’

    I know, Guan Shan thinks. Love is making me stupid and brave.

    ‘D’you mind?’ he asks. He knows his gestures of affection are hard to win—harder to receive of their own accord. Something—this morning’s epiphany—has made him want to give them more freely. But he was right, earlier: He Tian likes the challenge. Fear stabs at him, precise. Maybe He Tian won’t want him anymore.

    ‘Not in the slightest,’ He Tian replies.

    ‘I know what you want to hear. I know everything I’m saying isn’t what you’ve been wanting me to say.’

    Guan Shan jolts as if burnt, fingers caught on a hot stove. ‘I never asked you to say it back.’

    Softly, ‘No one says it without hoping for an answer.’

    this whole fic is Them. it's Everything. it's Them.

    OH MY GOD THEE BAKUGOU TOUCH-STARVED AND PRAISE-SEEKING KIRIBAKU FIC. OH MY GOD.


    A sense of suffocation hits him like a super-powered punch to the chest. So visceral is the emotion that Bakugou can’t stop how his hand instinctively presses down on his sternum. His breath stutters, mind whirling over the urgency in his body, the wrongness, struggling to understand an enemy to his system that he didn’t see coming.

    It takes a second to identify. But when he does, for the first time, he doubts his instincts.

    It’s—it’s hurt.

    It’s longing.

    It’s, why can’t I have that?

    Summary

    “Let’s say you’ve been asleep for a hundred years and when you wake up you’ve lost all your memories, but you defeat the big bad monster like you’ve been told to, because a girl told you to, and because you were in love with her. And after defeating the big bad monster she comes back, only she’s not the person she was a hundred years ago. And you’re not the person you were a hundred years ago. And yet every time you look at her, your chest hurts so bad you think you might be dying.”

    He looks up from his breadstick. “Am I dying?”

    “No,” Beedle says. “I think you’re stupid.”

    All roads lead to Hateno.

    Beedle’s bright, angular nose appears before him, carrying with it the wisdom of his ancestors. What do you want to do, Link, Beedle’s Nose asks him. What do you want?

    I want to pull her out of the burning house, he thinks. Is that too much to ask for?

    [...]

    Beedle’s Nose is indifferent. What burning house, it asks. Where’s the smoke coming from? Look around you, Link. There’s smoke, and fire, and windows with broken glass. But who’s still inside?

    Summary

    He’s about to open his door to go to the shared bathroom on this floor when he notices the scrap of paper that’s been pushed under his door. It’s a salmon-colored flashcard, the type that’s sold in 500-packs with multiple colors. Bakugou stoops to retrieve it, frowning at the message he finds written on it.

    Hey neighbor, welcome to the house! I heard you knocking things around, yesterday, and I think you maybe punched a wall? Anyway, the landlady gets pissy if you put holes in the wall, but I have a punching bag! You can come over and use it, or I can move it into the hall, if you want!

    There’s only one other bedroom on the fourth floor. Now, Bakugou crosses the hall to the bedroom on the right side, slamming the post-it note against the door.

    Fuck off and die, it reads.

    Bakugou Katsuki is not going to jeopardize his future a second time, and that means staying away from anyone who gets too close. Kirishima Eijirou has never learned how not to be close to someone. Of course, they end up as next-door neighbors.

    Summary

    Kirishima falls in love with a boy who speaks with his explosions and boasts dreams of heroism, even though such power and plans are forbidden.
    -
    The only times Bakugou spoke genuinely positively were of the victories of vigilantes reported on in the news; the only times he seemed genuinely alive were when he was using his quirk.

    And when he was with Kirishima.

    poignant and raw. when you're told part of you is illegal and should be hidden--suffocated, starved--who are you?
