Summary
Endeavor, the number one hero, is dead, and nobody besides the League of Villains knows it’s Hawks’ fault. Grappling with the death of his childhood hero at his own hands, Hawks spirals. At the same time, Dabi's reason to live and die is wrenched out of his grasp cold turkey. Hawks finds himself more and more disillusioned with his way of life. This can't be heroism, can it? Twice, the man he's sent here to kill due to being a 'national security threat,' likes gossiping and girl's nights and calls him a friend. He finds himself caring beyond his purview about Toga, who's just a kid and caught in a spiral of her own. He desperately claws to save Dabi from himself when their entanglement reveals ugly truths and rising feelings. When he finds his bonds shifting in strange new ways, he has to deal with all the cruelty in the world in order to push the ones he cares for out of the darkness. Because no matter how many times the hero Hawks is eviscerated, he always chooses hope. It's what Keigo would have wanted.

Summary
When Bakugou Katsuki dies during the war, Edgeshot curses him with the worst thing of all: resurrection. He wakes in a broken body, a hero who consumed himself without a second thought beating in place of his heart. Not only did Katsuki fail to get back up and fight after the sacrifice of Edgeshot's life, Izuku had to deal with the rest of the battle on his own, losing both his arms in the process and barely saving All Might. Now, despite the 'blessing' he's been given, Katsuki can't stop dreaming about death. When he's given the green light to leave the hospital and go back to studying at UA a month later, he takes it without a second thought: UA is all he has left. However, this arrangement comes with caveats. Unable to do things the way he used to, he has to either agree to a volunteering peer 'caretaker' watching over him just in case or return back to his parents' place (where he'll inevitably be smothered). Having resigned himself to going back home, he's blindsided to hear that someone actually VOLUNTEERED to get yelled at by him. His only thought at that moment: what the actual FUCK is wrong with them?

Summary
Several quiet beats pass between them. Far away, the ruckus of the rest of the League echoes into the night. Everyone always goes buck wild after these meetings, all riled up.
Dabi holds his hand out. In the shadows it’s hard to see his face, even with Hawks’ eyesight.
“Light?” He offers again, flicking his fingers together. A tiny blue flame pops into existence in his palm and dances against the dark. It’s…sort of beautiful. Like a miniature star.
“…Yeah.” Hawks nods minutely and bridges the gap, stepping closer. He dips the cigarette into the small fire and lifts his hand to shield it from the wind.
Dabi shakes his head. “It won’t go out on its own. Don’t insult me, Birdie.”
Hm. Hawks isn’t sure if it’s the funny nickname or the first breath of nicotine, but he gets a head rush.
“Thanks.” He says, blowing out a cloud of smoke. Warmer already.
***
Or, where Hawks and Dabi start out as nothing, and turn into something, over time. It's complicated.

Summary
A deep-dive into the final understandings of what Katsuki Bakugou wants the rest of his life to entail. The completion of his mental/emotional character arc for purely and solely himself. In other words: The finest love letter I can conceive to write to one of the most important characters I've encountered in any medium.
9/27/26: Fanart now on Chapter 1 and Chapter 6!!!

Summary
Sparks and tiny explosions glittered around the hero’s right hand. Ground Zero never took his eyes off Eijiro, eyes more threatening than any weapon.
“Touch me and I’ll blow your face off,” the hero growled, his teeth clenched so tightly it looked painful.
Without really taking any more time to think about it, Eijiro answered in a voice full of confidence he didn’t recognize in himself. “Go ahead. I dare you to hurt me. If you manage to leave even the slightest scratch on me, I’ll let you go. But if I don’t have a single injury, you’ll let me disinfect that wound, so I can move on to another patient.”

Or when Eijiro Kirishima not only has to deal with his work as a nurse at the hospital and his regular training fights with Tetsu but also a new fiery stubborn patient, pro-hero Katsuki Bakugo, and his undeniable blooming feelings for him.Bookmarked by underwateranon

Summary
Someday, Kacchan will leave. He has to. There’s no question that eventually a good enough opportunity will rise to rip Kacchan away from here. And Izuku will be happy for him when it does. Because Kacchan deserves that much. He’s fought and died for their future; Izuku should want nothing for Kacchan but success and happiness.
At the same time.

life changing good. the type of carnal hunger for someone that makes you want to join bodies, stitching and melting into one another in a visceral, gory display of cosmic body horror as a type of intimacy - soul merging.
