    Summary

    (Formerly known as Into the Deku-Verse)

    Shota sneers at the teenager across from him. His defense raises like the hairs on the back of his neck as he glares steadily, ready and waiting for whatever will come from this encounter. He narrows his gaze when the teen shifts; just the thought of sharing this rooftop with Japan's most notorious villain makes his skin prickle. “Deku.”

    “Y-yes!” the teenager cries out in relief, taking a small step towards Shota, “I’m Deku! I’m so g-glad you—”

    “Deku,” Shota growls darkly, flicking out his capture weapon hastily to snag the villain before he can make his move. He's quick to tug it taut, leaving no room for Deku to escape. “You’re under arrest.”

    “I-I’m what?! W-wait!”

    tl;dr

    Hero Course student Izuku comes to the realization that he is definitely not where he's supposed to be.

    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.

    Summary

    "What's this?"

    "My autograph, dummy."

    "Why would I want your autograph?"

    "I'm Bakugou Katsuki," he states plainly, face neutral.

    The little fucker grins. "Why would I want your autograph, Bakugou Katsuki?"

    Katsuki places his palms on the counter and leans forward, a familiar smirk stretching across his lips. "I'm Dynamight."

    Katsuki expects realization to dawn in his eyes, for his cheeks to tint pink, for his next words to come out all jumbled as he accepts the napkin with jittery enthusiasm. Instead, however, he leans forward on his elbows, fearlessly mirroring Katsuki's smirk, and it makes his head feel light. "And I'm Midoriya Izuku."
