    Summary

    He's a cherry tree urging itself to bloom in the midst of winter, only to watch his colors fade underneath black snow.

    ***

    In which Kirishima feels too much and does too little about it, until he's tiptoeing on the edge of too late.

    Summary

    “What’s holding you back then?” Kaminari smiled, trying for encouragement, “What happened to being manly about things? Taking a chance on the one you love sounds like one of the manliest things you could do!”

    To his credit, the comment caused Kirishima to give a little smile.

    “Point taken,” the redhead said quietly, “But there’s more to it than that. I think part of it, for me at least, is all the lectures we’ve been getting lately.”

     

    Oh.

     

    Now it makes sense.

    When a practical crafted by Aizawa-sensei forces Kirishima and Bakugou to face a terrible reality, it’s made obvious it’s time for a talk.

    The fact that they destroyed the kitchen in the process is just par for the course.

    Summary

    Katsuki was going to kill that fucking trickster.

    He managed to fight through the pain and force himself into a sitting position, only to immediately keel over onto his back, pulled down by an unfamiliar weight there.

    “What the fuck?” he grumbled, reaching behind himself to feel at his back.

    There was something leathery spread out on the ground under him.

    Katsuki moved his hand around, trying to guess how big the leathery whatever-the-fuck was. Before he could get a definitive answer, however, his wrist bumped into something cold and smooth.

    Something cold, smooth, and attached to his fucking head.

    Katsuki’s attention immediately shifted to that. He felt his way along it, and the dread that had been gathering ever since he fell over congealed into a cold mass in the pit of his stomach.

    It was a horn, and when he checked the other side of his head, there was an identical one there.

    Which meant that the leathery things under him were…

    “FUCK!”

    Summary

    The water is freezing, painful as he thrusts his arm into the hole in the ice, all the way up to his shoulder. It soaks through his jacket in an instant, agony as the cold stabs into every pore, making his muscles go rigid. His fingers close over the dark shape in the water, and with all his strength, Kirishima yanks Bakugou’s parka up and pulls him from the lake’s surface in one singular motion.

    Well, he's gotten him out of the lake.

    ...Now what?

    Summary

    Bakugou's realised, Kirishima shines bright always. But brightest when it's dark. When someone's in pain, when someone's down, when someone needs help, Kirishima's glow isn't blinding but soft in how it leads the way to better.

    "That's what you do," Bakugou says, alone one night on his balcony, looking up at the night sky. And talking to the moon. "You light the way for those who need you."

    Bakugou finds out that Kirishima isn't the sun.

    Summary

    "What's my name again?"

    "Kirishima Eijirou."

    Eijirou nodded, sounding it out a few times. "Sounds good...uh, what about you, man?"

    This was strange. He'd never had to introduce himself to Eijirou before. "Bakugou Katsuki."

    "Oh nice! What are we, dude?"

    Katsuki's mind went blank. What were they? Boyfriends, that was it, yeah, that was right. Though Katsuki wondered if amnesia Eijirou was homophobic, that'd be something. But he was really hesitating. He didn't know why at first until Eijirou lowered the blanket completely and Katsuki stared for a second, at his open curious face and messed up hair and questioning stance. No matter what state he was in, he always looked perfect to Katsuki.

    "We're friends."

    This was for the best.

    "Just friends."

    He'd been wanting to let Eijirou go for so long anyway, so what better way than if Eijirou didn't get hurt, at all?

    Katsuki doesn't think he deserves Eijirou, and it kills him inside. Then one day Eijirou gets knocked out in an attack, and when he wakes up not knowing who Katsuki is, it's his chance to finally end this without it seeming like a break-up.

    Summary

    Eijirou brought his hands to his head and groaned.

    Waking up from cryosleep was always nasty business, but he’d gotten used to it after being put under a few dozen times. Back home, it had been a controlled process, with a whole crew of scientists monitoring him as the cryochamber systematically thawed him and woke him up in stages.

    But this time, the ship had overridden that process, thawing him much too quickly and forcing him awake to flashing lights, a blaring alarm, and the words “HYDRAULICS SYSTEM FAILURE'' blinking red on the piloting screen. He’d had no choice but to pilot the ship to the nearest planet, through an unfamiliar atmosphere, before crashing and then stuttering to a halt on rocky terrain.

    Hopefully, this was the right planet. A nice, habitable planet. One with air and water and optimal atmospheric conditions.

    Astronaut Kirishima ends up stranded and alone on an uninhabitable planet. As his supplies dwindle and his sanity slips away, he finds help from an unlikely source.

    Summary

    Katsuki absolutely hates lying, he really does. But if there’s one thing he hates more, it’s his mother’s insistent urge to set him up on date after date. And sure, the girls are pretty and kind, but Katsuki really couldn’t care less. Anyone his mother picks for him is already out of the picture.
    So, when his mother sets him up on a blind date with a weirdly bubbly girl with pink hair and dark eyes, he thinks he’s just about had it – and he’s not too shy to tell the girl just that.
    To his surprise, though, she wholeheartedly agrees, and they come up with a plan, which works out pretty well until they are faced with a new problem; Mina’s childhood friend, Kirishima Eijirou.

    Summary

    "He knew that, despite his own confusing feelings on the matter, the relationship he had with Katsuki was purely physical. To the blond, Eijirou was a hookup, a fuckbuddy, a one-night stand. Well, a ten-night stand, really, but who’s counting?

    (Eijirou is.)

    He shouldn’t be feeling this way, so broken up over something he knew wasn’t serious, that he knew wouldn’t last. But Eijirou had never been the smartest. Of course he’d go and make the dumbest mistake in the book:

    Falling for Katsuki Bakugou."

    Summary

    “Where the fuck have you been man?” Kirishima asks, collapsing back into the bed. Exhausted from the struggle. “I missed you.”

    Bakugo winces and sits down tentatively next him, fully expecting Kirishima to push him away at any moment. To acknowledge what’s happening and cast him away.

    Villain.

    Instead he reaches out, grasping his hand and lacing their fingers together.

    Summary

    Sometimes a family is two men, their newly adopted dog, and the ways in which they all help each other heal.
    -
    Bakugou's frown slipped into an exasperated almost-smile as he realized what Kirishima was doing. “We're not naming the dog, Eijirou.”

    “Right. We should at least wait until we know what it looks like when it's all better.”

    “Eijirou.”

    “I've always wanted to name a dog. Never had any pets as a kid. Always wanted one though.”

    “Ei.”

    Kirishima beamed at his husband, pleased with the grin that Bakugou was trying to hide under the guise of seriousness. “Yes Katsuki?”

    “We're not naming the dog.”

    Summary

    Bakugou Katsuki is six the first time he hears his mom say it.
    “He’ll never be a good father. Or a good husband. Throw out being a good human being.”
    It was supposed to be said quietly, to his father, as he walked away towards his room. The school had called again, ratting him out for “bullying.” Whatever. He didn’t care.
    “Dear, he’s only six years old,” Masaru replied, a sigh in his voice. Bakugou had stopped walking to listen to their conversation. “Give him some time.”
    Katsuki heard his mom “hmph” before turning back to the dishes. When he realized they were done, he continued his silent walk to his room.
    And he couldn’t understand why, as he curled up in the sheets to sleep, why his heart hurt.

    Summary

    The thing about your best friend/roommate/long-time crush/probably the love of your life being in a coma is that it sucks. Like, a lot.

    "Kats, if you don’t wake up, I will hide a dirty sock somewhere in your room. Somewhere you’ll never find it. And you’ll just have to live with that."

    The machines beep in the back, like a ghastly metronome.

    "I will move your desk 3 inches to the left."

    The soft rise and fall of the blonde’s chest is uniform, lungs contracting and expanding and contracting over and over.

    "I will literally stop watering the orchid Kats, I swear to god."

    Summary

    Now, for as antisocial and socially inept as Bakugou is, he knows who Kirishima Eijiro is, everyone does. Kirishima is the school’s golden boy. Captain of the football team. He’s sickeningly friendly and, somehow, becomes friends with literally everyone he talks to. He has a sharp tooth smile that lights up every room he’s ever been in (Not that Bakugou noticed), and always wore that stupid letterman jacket over either a muscle tee or nothing at all (Not that Bakugou stared). He had this loud ass laugh that is impossible to ignore, (Bakugou knows, he tries) and bright as fuck, red hair that he spikes up, if he’s not wearing a snapback (Not that Bakugou has ever paid that much attention to it, or how soft it looks).

    "Fuck!"

    OR

    Bakugou Katsuki is UA's resident delinquent who secretly maintains a 4.0 GPA. Kirishima Eijirou is UA's star quarterback who is failing multiple classes. When Aizawa offers Bakugou extra credit to tutor him, he can't say no, not when this is his opportunity to steal the number one spot in the class. There's no way this can go wrong.

    Summary

    He registers his surroundings. The shape and width of the container he’s been stuffed inside. The wood that crowds every inch of his vision, a distinct long and rectangular shape that forcibly pins his legs together-

     
    Cold recognition lances through him and electrifies the blood in his veins.

     
    Because it’s a coffin.

     
    Katsuki is inside a god damn coffin.

     
    (Katsuki Bakugou wakes up buried six feet underground, blindsided and trapped by a faceless villain. His quirk has been rendered useless, and his only tools for escape are a faulty cell phone and his own perseverance. With time running out, he is forced to confront not only his increasingly futile odds for survival but the rising tide of feelings he's kept buried all these years).

    Summary

    Nothing changed and everything remained the same; mundane, routine, suffocating. So when the news broke that a student went missing, it was hard for Bakugou not to take notice. For as long as he could remember, he'd been empty. Everything he did was under a haze of apathy and it was rare for something other than anger to shatter the wall that dulled his senses. Kirishima's disappearance became something to distract him from the hollowness, whether he wanted it to or not.
