Work Text:
Izuku and Katsuki started officially dating when they were 16. Yes, they were childhood friends, but since they were idiots in love, oblivious idiots in love, it took them long before they realized their feelings for one another. Though them dating was highly expected, it was also expected for them to forever cower from their true feelings so you could say most were still surprised about their, now labeled, intimate relationship.
Katsuki never really dreamt nor thought of seriously pursuing becoming an artist/pop star. All he ever wanted was to be with Izuku for eternity, not even death would do them apart. After some time, his hobbies of playing the drum, the guitar, and singing bloomed to become a passion. Not really sure of what he wanted to pursue as his future career, he decided to bet on becoming a professional artist, which he then seriously fucking loved and never regretted.
He started writing his own serious songs at the age of 17 (technically started at the age of thirteen if you count his drafts and junks), having some of his original songs be used by his high school pastime, a.k.a high school band (which he was part of). Since they were most of the time free, they were able to hop from competition to competition which, unsurprisingly, they would often win. Unbeknownst to them, one of the competitions they would eventually join had a crowd of scouting record labels. Because of that particular competition, his high school band (which formed from members he considers friends ) wanted to join for entertainment, they were scouted by record labels impressed by their dynamic and performance. Supposedly, they were going to reject the offer due to the uncertainty of commitment. However, after a particular famous record label caught their eye, they opted to think over it more thoroughly. Being young and uncertain, the record label was considerate and gave them a year to think of their final decision. In the end, they came to a final agreement to accept their offer.
The first song they released after they officially debuted under the name ĐynamiTe became a total hit. It was a song about how love is so sweet, but at the same time so intoxicating, having the facade of a beautiful rose only to lure you to get hurt by its thorns, just the perfect song for someone who looks at love through rose-tinted glasses. Did I mention they were also hot? Well yeh, surprise, they were. That only made them stand out even more (especially to thirsty simps who clipped their juicy shirtless performances). Well, aside from all the stage presence and showbiz stuff, they were also actual genuine people. Many loved their dynamic as friends outside of the industry, finding their goofy relationship entertaining and in a sense, real. Of course, many original songs followed after their debut which fed the fame of ĐynamiTe even more. A few years later, they are now acknowledged as international stars, having fans from every region of the world.
Realizing how much power his vocals (and songwriting skills) are capable of, Bakugo Katsuki decided to pursue (besides being a member of ĐynamiTe) becoming a solo artist. The first original song he released as an official solo artist was enough to build his name ‘Bakugo Katsuki’ as a rising solo star. Well, to be fair, since he did come from a famous band, he didn’t need to build his fame starting from zero.
Throughout this one hell of a roller coaster ride, Izuku never left Katsuki’s side. Sure, they would have arguments, that's given, but rest assured Izuku always supported Katsuki. No matter what.
Of course, since the two were practically inseparable and fucking excessively affectionate with one another, the public caught on. Rumors of famous Bakugo Katsuki’s secret lover started to spread like wildfire, and Katsuki didn’t give a fucking damn. He has always wanted for the world to know that Izuku was his and he was Izuku’s , and he didn’t give a fuck of what others would think about that. At some point, the paparazzi’s never-ending guessing and prying irritated him to the fullest extent. He decided to finally put an end to the ‘Who is Bakugo Katsuki’s secret lover?’ mystery by kissing Izuku during one of his concerts in front of many people, announcing that ‘Izuku Midoriya’, a.k.a ‘the cute greenette’ was his boyfriend (to which Izuku cried on because they kissed on live television and his mom watched the show, but that's beside the point). Of course, many recordings of the kiss and announcement were fed to the internet, which inevitably became trending. The whole world now knows that Bakugo Katsuki’s secret lover turned out to be a little cute greenette who had big shining emerald eyes and freckles which looked like beautiful stars splattered in the sky.
Sometime after revealing their secret (not-so-secret anymore) relationship, Izuku started doing ‘just for fun’ duets with Katsuki. He especially loved it when Katsuki would play the acoustic guitar as they sang together. It was their jam, and instead of what most thought would clash, they complimented each other. Oftentimes, Katsuki would post their duets on his social platforms, bragging about his cute and talented boyfriend, which definitely caught the interest of many people. Some record labels found Izuku’s voice authentic, beautiful, sweet, and soft so they offered him a record deal. After thinking over it thoroughly, Izuku decided to sign the contract and be a partially not-so sideline artist.
Because of his ‘new career to pursue’, Izuku had to put in much more of his time and effort. He had to attend meetings, sign contracts, partnerships, and yada yada. An endless hole of responsibilities. Sure it was tiring, but he always wanted to be recognized for his own efforts, and make his own name rather than just being titled as ‘Katsuki’s boyfriend’. He didn’t want to leech off of Katsuki’s fame. He wanted to stand beside Katsuki on the pedestal, not being carried by him. It has been his dream ever since to create official songs with Katsuki, and sing those songs together with him on stage in front of millions of people. Now that he was working his way to becoming an actual artist, he’s very much excited to fulfill his dreams with Katsuki.
Although it may seem positive as of the moment, Katsuki finds it irritating that Izuku needed to spend much more fucking time on work instead of pouring his love to the blonde. What do you expect? Katsuki’s a needy dork hungry for love. Especially when it’s Izuku’s love. Don’t get him wrong though, he supported Izuku's ambitions VERY much, but the lack of affection he was getting was driving him to insanity. Izuku couldn’t come with Katsuki on tour, fuck, even some of their dates needed to be canceled! Izuku’s manager told him that this extra-ness of effort would only last for a few months since Izuku’s an ‘artist on the rise’ and shit. Well. Bullshit. Few months felt like years.
At present, the 'famous Bakugo Katsuki' has been demoted to a sad sack of potato sulking in a corner he named ‘My fucking moment spot’ (which his bandmates are very well aware of). Why? You guessed it, ‘cuz Izuku couldn’t come with him on his band ĐynamiTe‘s tour.
Feeling so single (even though he most certainly wasn’t), he opened his phone and reread the messages Izuku sent him 3 hours ago. In hopes of medicating his sad lonely heart.

Seen Today 7:37am
Reading those texts didn’t help Katsuki at all , instead, they only made his condition much much worse. Seeing all those exaggerated emoticons his lover always sent made him miss those cute emotions that would plaster around Izuku’s face. Hearing that Izuku was working on his first single ‘I'm Hooked’ which was a song Katsuki took most pride in since it was dedicated to him made the blonde miss his sweet heavenly voice.
As he read Izuku’s last text, he let out a long and exasperated sigh, feeling so miserable without his green goofball. Of course, as the drama king he was, that exaggerated sigh caught the attention of his bandmates. Oh, did I mention that he also dramatically smacked his phone straight into the wall? It's nothing but a short miracle how the phone’s seemingly fine.
A boy who had black hair tied up in a messy ponytail stared at the miserable sight of the blonde sulking at the corner with visible concern and slight confusion. It wasn’t normal for the blonde to just sigh out of nowhere, especially in front of people. “What’s up with him?” Sero asked with an eyebrow quirked up.
“He’s been like that ever since we left for tour. Don’t mind him, let him be. Engaging with him would only make things worse.” A boy with spiky red hair stated, flapping his hands in a ‘don’t mind’ way. Kirishima knew Katsuki too well to know when the blonde needed affection from his friends (yes, friends. The blonde finally considered them friends. What a promotion from 'better extras'). Well, that moment would definitely not be now. He needed affection from a certain someone, not from them.
“Ah, I see, it's because Midoriya couldn’t come, right? Long-distance from Midoriya must be cruel for him.” Sero spoke out, feeling a little empathy for the poor spiritless blonde. He knew how missing someone felt, and how it's a feeling no one appreciated.
“Cruel is an understatement. I think ‘will be the death of him’ would simply suit better.” Mina, a woman with pink hair, corrected the black hair, ponytailed boy.
Before silence rebutted through the air, a boy who had bright blonde mid-length hair with striking cool highlights dyed black broke through the door as it slammed open. He entered the room sluggishly pulling himself together. Then he proceeded to open his mouth, most probably to say some unnecessary stuff.
“Don’t tell me we have to stay like this for another hourrrr. Can we go live stream or some shit? I’m reallllyyyyy bored— wait, what the heck’s up with Katsuki?”
They all stared at the blonde who carelessly entered the room, partially surprised with his sudden action, before Kirishima decided to answer his well, arguably reasonable questions. “Don’t mind him, he’s busy sulking. And, what the heck would you even stream about?”
“Ohhhhhh, I see. It’s that time of the day again.” He said not so surprised, in fact, used to it. He paused, then continued, answering the red’s latter question with a snark. “Anyways, our depressed explosive Bakugo ‘die shitty extras!’ Katsuki right here. Bet many people would love to clip that.”
“Fuck off.”
Kaminari couldn’t control himself from releasing a light chuckle at the depressed blonde’s weak insult of a comment. “He really is depressed lmao.”
“Those insults were nowhere near the real stuff. If he were the normal Katsuki, he would’ve exploded like a timebomb. Goin’ on and on with his blasty swears. ‘FUCK OFF YOU IDIOTS’ or somethin’ like that. Though, it's okay Katsuki, crying is manly too!”
Kirishima left Kaminari awed with what he previously said. Not because of what he literally said, but of the Katsuki imitation he pulled off. “No shit. I gotta give you credit, that Katsuki imitation was so on point.”
“Fucking wasn’t. AND, I’M NOT CRYING.” Katsuki exploded as he glared at the two.
Being them , they high-fived, ignoring the exploding blonde. “I know right?”
“DID YOU JUST IGNORE ME? ARE YOU CHALLENGING ME?”
ĐynamiTe✓ is now currently streaming. Check it out!
Lucky for pikachu and shitty hair, Sero cut through their little dumb game of ‘ticking off the time bomb’ before the blonde actually exploded. “Started the stream. You guys better not do anything inappropriate.”
Kaminari, of course, glowed up as his vibrant yellow eyes sparkled knowing that the stream would definitely distract him from getting bored. “Hello darlings!” He gladly spoke out as he neared himself to the camera.
“Ew, stop trying to sound like an auntie. Doesn’t suit you at all.” Mina commented.
“Fuck you.” The electric blonde said, annoyed, as he pouted.
"Hahaha, thanks~!" The pink girl smugly replied to the blonde's insult.
“Since we have about…” Kirishima paused as he looked at the digital clock his phone had. “an hour before we start prepping for the concert, we deliver you all some sweet backstage content! It's a miracle how loose our schedule is today.” he then continued.
“Oh and, this is rated mature ‘cuz of the inevitable swears to come.“ Kaminari whispered to the recording device’s speaker.

“Even chat noticed Katsuki’s weird lack of explosions.” Kaminari spoke out as he read the viewers’ rather ‘interesting’ comments. He admits that their audience was quite unique , and he’s thankful for that. They were indeed lucky that they weren’t formed of majorly sexual people such as pedophiles.
"Hey Mcblasty they're looking for you!" The blonde continued to tease.
"Fuck off."
Sero shifts the recording device’s camera to face the depressed un-explosive (at the moment) blonde. The site of the depressed blonde is truly familiar. That’s if you’re not a ‘DynamiTe fan born only mere seconds ago’. It's the type of ‘site’ you’d definitely see when the blonde is missing a certain someone.
“As you can see, he’s pretty much sulking at the moment.” Sero explained to the viewers.
In annoyance (and mostly because he is Bakugo Katsuki), Katsuki raises a distinctly flat middle finger. Silently gesturing ‘Fuck off’.
“Hey! You can’t do that!” Kirishima immediately spoke out as he was startled by the sudden actions of the blonde. The blonde sure is a bundle of chaotic mystery. You'll never know what stunt he'll pull off. Hell, is exactly the reason why they're always in trouble with Aizawa and their PR manager.
“I fucking can.” the blonde replied smugly. He proceeds to blatantly raise another middle finger with his other hand, which left the group facepalming and pinching the bridges of their noses.

Of course, as they were streaming their comedic nonsense, they would, from time to time, look at their chat. As they were reading, one specific comment, rather, user , caught their attention.
“That’s Izuku right? I mean with the verified check and all.” Kaminari said as he chewed on the hamburger he bribed one of their assistants to get it for him.
“It’s Izuku for sure.” Kirishima confirmed.
As Katsuki heard the word ‘Izuku’, for a moment, he felt as if his ears heard better. Of course, when it comes to his greenette lover, he should be all-knowing.
“Where.” he angrily asked as he rose from his corner spot, stopping his way to the screen that showed the chat's "interactive" comments.
“I can do whatever I fucking want Deku.” He said as he read Izuku’s “Kacchan! That was totally mean >:v “ comment. He paused for a moment, then slowly mumbled “But, I’m sorry if it upsets you...”
Kaminari almost choked on his burger as soon as he heard ‘King Explosion Murder’ say soft genuine words. Give him a break, though they've been friends for almost 6 years now didn't mean he always saw explodo boi's soft side. This was a sight to behold. “LOL. OUR KING EXPLOSIVE MURDER DID SOMETHING SOFT IN FRONT OF MANY PEOPLE. SOMEONE CLIP THAT.” He barely spoke out as most of what he said was swallowed by his inaudible laughs and burger chewing.
“FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING DUMBASS. I FEEL THOSE SHITTY EMOTIONS TOO. I’M FUCKING HUMAN.” ‘King Explosion Murder’ lividly growled.
“He has a soft spot for Izukuuu~” Mina joined the mocking of the erupting blonde. "Totally whipped. Can't convince me otherwise." the female continued.
“FUCK YEH. OTHERWISE, I WOULDN’T BE FUCKING DATING HIM.” The blonde answered in annoyance.
Kirishima scoffed at the nonsense Katsuki spoke out. As I said, he knew the blonde too well. “Soft spot or not, you would still date him and you know it” He snarkly commented.

Chat:
HanabiWhite: LOL Kirishima be stating facts
BoomBoomLover_88: Dekuiru, look at your cute boyfriend haha
Burnt_Azh: Why don’t yer video call him you dekiru hungry simp 😂
-
“Oh, Burnt_Azh’s right Bakubro, why don’t you call Izuku?”
The explosive blonde calmed down and stared (at nothing) in realization. Once he came back to his senses, he immediately demanded for his phone.
“Give me my fucking phone.”
“Don’t you have it?”
“My other phone damn it. This shitty one failed me and died.”
Yes. The blonde owned more than one phone. He believes that having extras would save him the bother of borrowing from others in cases of emergency where his main phone’s in trouble. After all, being famous and rich fuckin’ paid off real nice.
“Lemme look for it bro…” Kirishima willingly answered as he searched for the phone. Normally, their assistants would handle needs such as these, but they "beggingly" requested for them to have some private time with no one but themselves, so logically, no one but them is present in the room. “Here.” He said as he found it laying on top of one of the tables and gave it to blasty.
Katsuki stood up as he snatched his phone from the red-head, and presumed back to his sulking corner waiting for Izuku to pick up his call.
“And he's back at his corner,” Kaminari remarked as he, once again, chewed on the second burger he was currently consuming.
“Fuck of you horny for junk food pig.”
Kirishima, Sero and Mina synchronizing-ly laughed at the blonde's choice of words. Well, he has always had a "unique" way with words.
Kaminari huffed and pouted, "Hoh, how dare you insult my Wacdonald's! They aren't junk, they're good food!" He then took a big bite out of his second burger and angrily chewed. He didn't mind being insulted, but if it was his beloved Wacdonald's instead, there would be hell to pay.
Mina snapped as she thought of a seemingly ‘great’ idea. The loud sound the snap produced caught the attention of the people in the room (except for the explosive blonde 'cause he's too busy doing more important things.
“Ooooh. I just got an idea.”
“Spill.”
“Someone keep a ‘fuck’ tracker on Bakugo.”

Chat:
Dekiru✓: On it. We currently have 9 all in all for the band, Kacchan leading with 8.
KatsuIzuuu_23: dekiru beat us to it
Honey_Pie_Z9: Of course, the number one king explosion murder fan got it
KatsuIzuuu_23: It’s true love hadsjkjk

Of course, Izuku was quick to respond. Tracking Katsuki’s ‘fucks’ was a piece of cake. After all, he was a proud King Explosion Murder fan so it was nothing but expected of him.
“Wow Bakubro! You’re really lucky to have a very supportive number one fan. Izuku’s been tracking your swears which are currently 8 on the rise.” Kirishima spoke out with a big smile, happy over the greenette’s supportiveness. Seeing the two’s relationship grow over the years made him realize how much they truly meant for each other. Damn, he wished that someday, he may find a person to share that kind of stuff with. He was a sucker for cheesy shit.
Being Katsuki, Izuku’s one and only lover, he turned his attention from his phone to Kirishima once the red-head said Izuku’s name. He stood up, and looked through the comments to make certain if the greenette really did put effort in tracking his blasty ‘fucks’.
“Oi deku, aren’t you busy?”
-
Chat:
Dekiru✓: I am, but I can’t miss my boyfriend’s stream 🥺
Dekiru✓: I’m working while watching, beating two birds with one stone (which I’m an expert at) if you will ;]
-
“Out of all the people I know, you are the least expert at animal abuse. Since you have the fuckin’ time to watch our stream, ditch it and answer my call.” Katsuki spoke out in an angry but soft way. He was desperate.
He returned back to his corner spot, sat down, and attempted to ring Izuku’s phone once again, in hopes that he would actually answer and Katsuki would actually hear his sweet voice.
Katsuki’s gloomy face then exchanged with a bright sparkling one once the ringing stopped. He looked over his phone to see the saving caller ID ‘ My Deku~ 💖’ projected on his phone's screen instead of an annoying 'My Deku~ 💖 missed your call.'. This made his heart flutter in the excitement of talking and seeing the greenette again, even if it's only through a measly screen. Sounds fucking cheesy, but he absolutely didn’t give a shit.
“Holaaaaa Kacchannnn~!”
With that, Katsuki stood up from his corner spot with a bright warm aura seeping to surround him, and walked out of the room. Of course, not forgetting to slam the door on his way out.
Kaminari unrestrainedly laughed at the blonde’s actions. Sero pinched the bridge of his nose, but couldn't help empathize with the lovesick blonde. Mina clapped her hands, cheering for the cute couple. And Kirishima couldn’t stop himself from finding the door slam supperrrr manly.
“Anddd he’s gone—” Before Kaminari could even finish his laughing sentence, a man who had black long hair, a scar on his right cheek, casual black clothes, and a face which looked sleep-deprived entered the room. It was their manager.
“Let’s go. Let’s go. Get going now, we're gonna start preparing. There’s been a change in schedule due to a minor technical problem so we have to start preparing as soon as possible.” The man said, voice in monotone.
“Awww mann. Guess we gotta end the stream noww.” The electric blonde said with a visible pout on his face. His happy cheerful facade now depressed into a miserable sad one. The look you would expect from someone who got their puppy taken away but minus the puppy.
“Thank you all for tuning in! Till we meet again!”
ĐynamiTe✓ ended their stream. “Till next time!”
“Katsuki’s gonna flip out when he finds out we’re goin’ to start preparing at the venue. He just started a call with Izuku after a long week of rehearsal and work, so finding out he needs to end the call too soon will make him really pissed.”
“More than pissed. Explode you mean.” Mina cheekily remarked.
“Let’s gooo then. Who’s gonna call and tame the beast?”
“Not me.” They all synchronized. Unfortunately, for them, none of them wanted to take one for the team.
“As if someone besides Izuku can tame that gremlin beast. Don’t wanna meet my death bed yet, I’m too younnggggg!” Kaminari cried out.
“Let’s draw straws then,” Sero gradually suggested as he stuck out a bunch of straws he, for some odd reason, had in hand.
"Shortest straw gets to be hailed as the 'sacrificial lamb'?"
They all chuckled and nodded in unison.
"3, 2, 1, pick!"
