Katsuki has a Boyfriend and Class 1A Didn't Know!? AND HE
LIVES WITH HIM!?
by JarOfMiel

Summary

Piercer and Tattoo Artist/Gamer Twitch and YouTube Streamer Izuku x Hero Katsuki

UA is a college in this universe, and unknown to class 1A, there's a reason Katsuki doesn't
stay in the dorms during their free time like the others and not only does Aizawa meet the
reason why before those dorms even begin, but after some months so does class 1A. It wasn't
what they were expecting, especially not seeing this other side of Katsuki and meeting
someone that can either be literal sunshine or a ball of sarcastic dark humor.

Notes

In this AU story, U.A. is a college, it’s still a hero school and this is still a quirk AU, Izuku is
still quirkless and doesn’t get OFA, Izuku, and Katsuki are in a relationship together and live
together as well. They are 18 right now and Katsuki has entered into U.A. and was accepted.

To give an Idea of their apartment layout (the smaller second bedroom is the room that Izuku
streams in) w/ color schemes of black, white, and grey with the occasional accent of orange,
green, or red:

Introductions and Permission

The year was going alright, Katsuki loved getting to live with his loving boyfriend which
followed his passion, and Katsuki himself followed his dream to be a hero. But then their
class was getting attacked by villains a lot and they were to be put into the dorms. Aizawa
showed up at Katsuki’s listed address, he thought he would be meeting Bakugou’s parents as
he had already gone to all the other students' homes before this, because Bakugou lived the
furthest away, and they all still lived with his parents.

When he knocked on the door he was greeted by a 5’9 ¼ young adult with messy curly green
hair with a black undertone and an undercut with many black ear piercings, a nose ring, and
rings on his fingers as well as some visible tattoos. Aizawa was confused and he could see
the green-haired guy was confused as well, so he finally spoke. “Is this Bakugou Katsuki’s
residence?” he could see the greenettes expression change to a realization.

“Ohhh? You must be caterpil— I mean Aizawa sensei. Yes, this is Katsuki’s residence.” he
spoke as he moved over to allow Aizawa entry into the apartment and Aizawa came in as
offered. “Katsuki is in the shower let's give him a minute.”

'Was he about to call me a caterpillar? Definitely acquainted with Bakugou' Aizawa thinks as
he sits on the couch.

Izuku sat on the love seat beside it before standing up once again “Oh yeah would you like
some coffee or some tea?”

“Um.. Coffee would be nice.” Aizawa hesitated as Izuku went to the kitchen and prepared
them both a cup of black coffee and returned with them.

“I didn’t put anything in the coffee, did you need something?”

“No, this is perfect. I prefer black.”

“Oh really? Same!”

The two chatted for a minute till Aizawa was too curious and had to ask “Where’s
Bakuogou’s parents and I was wondering about your relation to him? Brothers? Cousins?”

Izuku suddenly choked a second on his coffee then gained composure and laughed a little
“Sorry sorry! We're not relatives!” he laughed once more “His parents are at their home, I’m
Katsuki’s partner.” he simply stated.

Aizawa had a big ‘ohhhhh’ expression as well as shock that Bakugou was in a relationship
and living with them. “Did not expect this..”

“Which part?” Izuku asked with a chuckle.


Aizawa started “More than one thing actually. He’s the last student I’m seeing since he lives
the furthest away, the others all still lived at home so I assumed he would as well. I also
didn’t see him as the type to be in a serious enough relationship to live with them. You don’t
look like relatives so that was just a long stretch.”

Izuku nodded as Aizawa finished. “That makes sense, sorry about the distance we decided to
find somewhere equal distances from my job and his school. I understand why you didn’t
think Kat was the type to be in a relationship but there's more to him than his angry shouting
and–” Izuku gets cut off as someone enters into the living in baggy pants and a t-shirt with
still-wet hair.

“Babeee I need coffee or some of your spec–” That’s when the freshly showered young adult
realized his sensei was in the living room “the fuck..?”

Aizawa looked at Bakugou’s confused expression, who had just recently come from the
shower evident from his wet hair. He could see it on his student's face, he had forgotten about
him coming over for dorm approval. “Afternoon Problem Child. I see you forgot about me
coming over to discuss the dorms.”

Bakugou clicked his tongue in annoyance before walking over to sit down, before Katsuki
could respond in annoyance Izuku spoke up “It’s too late for you to have coffee I’ll make you
the special tea” he kissed Katsuki’s cheek as he got up to go to the kitchen, not before hearing
Bakugou’s thanks seeing Aizawa’s surprised at Katsuki’s expression of gratitude before
leaving the room (the special tea he is making is chamomile lavender with cannabis stems
and honey mixed in).

“The point of these visits is to make sure your parents approve you going into the dorms,
so–” Aizawa is interrupted by Bakugou pulling out some papers, and setting them on the
coffee table.

“These were the pages you passed out to be signed, I know that you were wanting to speak to
my old man and hag but they're chill with it” Katsuki stated.

Aizawa was quite surprised by the lack of yelling from his student “Why didn’t you mention
you didn’t live with your parents instead of letting me make this trip if they’re not here?”
Aizawa asked.

“I do have a request,” Katsuki said.

“Which is?” Aizawa asked.

“Could I still be allowed to go off campus any free time to visit Izuku and stay at our
apartment on the weekends, please?” Katsuki asked this with seriousness and sincerity.

Aizawa sighed, he didn’t expect a ‘please’ from the problem child. “I’ll have to talk to Nezu
about it but I’m sure I can get that approved.” Aizawa could see Katsuki’s tension released.

Bakugou had a sigh of relief just as Izuku was now returning with Katsuki’s tea, sitting it
down in front of him and sitting beside his boyfriend. “Did you ask yet babe?” Izuku asked.
“I just did, he will have to check with the rat but he thinks it will be approved,” Katsuki
answered.

“Hope so.” Izuku smiles and then turns his attention to Aizawa also catching his attention
“So how has Kat been in your class sens— Actually I was wondering if Eraserhead is okay,
what you preferred?”

“Eraserhead or Aizawa is fine with me. Bakugou is top of his class in academics and hero
course, he has an explosive personality he might want to work on dialing down if he really
wants to grow.”

Izuku couldn’t help but chuckle, “Explosive personality is one word for it,” he goes to start to
ruffle Katsuki’s hair as he says “he’s like an angry pomeranian.”

Katsuki was allowing the ruffle until Izuku’s comment so pulled his hand away telling him to
“fuck off” as he rolled his eyes.

“Alright alright, sorry for the tease. But he isn’t wrong, you know. You need to control your
anger with more than just me. Maybe you should start taking those gummies for stress relief
at school as well.” Izuku had some concern in his voice which Katsuki noticed.

“It’s cool, you broccoli,” this time Katsuki ruffled Izuku’s hair. “I was thinking of maybe
doing that as well, don't worry I’ll work on it.” Izuku nodded in response.

Aizawa was just baffled at Katsuki’s calm composer and lack of yelling since he came in and
now the affectionate interaction with his student's partner shocked him a lot but he was
starting to understand what kind of person his student Katsuki Bakugou is besides his yelling
angrily tendencies. After taking that in, this persona was now accepted in Aizawa’s brain but
he knew it would continue to surprise him for a while. “So I’m curious how this dynamic
came to be. Not judging, I have no right being in a weird dynamic myself.” Aizawa asked.

“We’ve known each other since childhood, we’ve had some stuff happen between us but we
managed to fix our friendship then we just started to have feelings for each other or we
realized we had the feelings.. Whatever.. But now we're here.” Katsuki flatley stated until the
last part looking over to Izuku who hummed in agreeance.

“Hmm. I see, well you two seem like a good couple. You mentioned having a job —” Aizawa
started to speak until he realized he didn’t know the boy's name.

“Oh shit I’m sorry I never said my name, that's so rude– I’m Izuku Midoriya. And yes I have
a job, what of it?” Izuku intervened hurriedly.

“Midoriya got it. Well, I was curious as to where you work?” Aizawa asked

“Oh, I work at a tattoo and piercing parlor called Black Gallary Ink and Piercers” he
answered.

“Ah, I see, guessing that's where you and Bakugou got your ear piercings and you got tattoos
and nose pierced as well?” Aizawa says.
“Well most of mine I did myself when I was younger–” Izuku rubbed the back of his neck
nervously.

“The dumbass decided it was a smart idea to pierce your own ears as a kid,” Katsuki added.

“Shut up Kat! The rest I got professionally done and I didn’t hear any complaints when I
pierced your ears and tongue!” Izuku shouted, acting irritated.

“Because you're almost licensed for that now it’s not like your tattooing where you already
have the artistic ability that’s shoving a needle through flesh not drawing on it!” Bakugou
draped his head behind the couch when giving this response half yelling it.

“Wait, I only saw your few ear piercings, you also have a tongue piercing?” Aizawa
intervened.

Bakugou lifted his head up, sticking his tongue out to show before draping it back once more
and simply saying “Yup, the nerd convinced me to.”

“I’ve also given him a tattoo!” Izuku stated proudly.

“Didn’t expect that either, I’ve never seen it,” Aizawa responded.

Katsuki pulled the left side of the collar to show his collarbone and bit of shoulder revealing
his dark red, green, and black floral tattoo. Aizawa looked at it in detail “Oh woah that’s very
detailed, you are very talented Midoriya.” he said genuinely.

“Thank you, Eraserhead!” Izuku said happily.

Aizawa looked at his watch before speaking “I need to be heading out, I have someone to get
home to as well. See you in class on Monday, problem child.” Aizawa says before heading
out.

That night Izuku and Katsuki gamed on Izuku’s Twitch game where he’s known as “Broccoli
Boy” the viewers are aware he lives with his boyfriend that joins streams occasionally and
just like how Izuku hasn’t given his name, neither has Katsuki. The viewers would call him
“Broccoli’s Hubby/Boyfriend” until Katsuki got annoyed of that and told them to call him
“King Explosion Murder” they chat digressed and started calling him “Boom Boom Boy”
instead to his annoyance.

Izuku has been a streamer for almost a year now and isn’t famous but he is very popular, the
viewers often nag for a boyfriend's face reveal because while Izuku has shown his from the
start he doesn’t show Katsuki’s face ever.

When Katsuki had a class on Monday, Aizawa told him that Nezu permitted him to go to his
apartment with Izuku on the weekends and can go visit him during the week just has to text
Aizawa ahead of time to let him know. The class was told they would have the rest of the
week to get settled into their dorm rooms.

After class 1-A was settled in their rooms Mina tried doing a dorm contest but Bakugou
refused to show his dorm to the rest of the class which annoyed them. He didn’t want them to
see all his pictures of him and Izuku and ask questions or make fun of him because in some
of the pictures he looked quite soft. Almost every day after class Katsuki would leave campus
to meet up with Izuku at his job until he was off work and they spent time together either
skating, gaming or Katsuki did homework, they always smoke during, before, and/or after
these activities.

However the class never knew where he was going, on the weekends they assumed Katsuki
was going to his parent's house but they weren’t sure.

After two months of Bakugou always blowing off his class when they tried to hang out with
him, he seemed more closed off since they got dorms and their class was suspicious and
wanted to know what was up with Bakugou and where he was going. Iida would often try to
stop him before he left campus every time stating he isn’t supposed to but Bakugou always
responds with a “fuck off” before just walking out. Specifically, Kirishima, Mina, Sero,
Uraraka, Iida, and Todoroki wanted to know what Bakugou was always up to and Denki,
Hitoshi, and Tsuyu kinda just tagged
Meeting some of the Classmates
Chapter Summary

Some of class 1-a are nosy and a few are just along for the ride, enter the cute but hot
(boy)friend the class has heard nothing about.

Kirishima and Mina decided they would just follow Bakugou to see what he was always up
to almost every day after class. So one day when class ended Bakugou as usual pulled his
phone out to what appeared to be sending a text before bolting out of class and off-campus.
As far back as they can Kirishima, Mina, Sero, Uraraka, Iida, Todoroki, Tsuyu, Hitoshi, and
Denki were following Katsuki as he took a train heading downtown and the group followed.
Continuing when he gets off and eventually sees that Katsuki is walking into a busy parlor
shop called 'Black Gallary Ink and Piercers'.

The group was confused.

They didn’t see Bakugou as they type to have tattoos, they knew of his ear piercings but they
couldn’t see this as where he is always going after school so they got closer to look through
the shop windows. They see Bakugou head to the back of the shop waving at the employees.
The group thought he must know some of the workers but didn’t get why he went to the back
or why he was there. A few minutes later they see him walk back out in casual clothes now
and with a guy barely shorter than him with green curls and tattoos and piercings and
Bakugou has an arm around on the guy's shoulders.

The group still couldn’t connect dots so continued to watch them as Bakugou seemed to
calmly talk to this greenette only occasionally hollering as the greenette had a few clients to
give piercings to until it was 5 p.m. and the two were finally leaving the shop and continued
talking to each other in their own little world. The couple didn’t even notice a group of
teenagers running up to them from behind.

“Bakubro!” someone shouted.

Bakugou turned around to see Kirishima who shouted running towards him followed by
Mina, Sero, Uraraka, Iida, Todoroki, Tsuyu, Hitoshi, and Denki. “What the hell shitty hair!”
Bakugou shouted when he turned to them.

The group finally all makes it up to the duo, Mina asks “What are you doing here bakubabe?”

“Bakubabe?” Izuku questions looking at Katsuki.

“I told you to stop fucking calling me that, I don’t like it!-” Katsuki says then turns to Izuku
“it’s a nickname she won’t stop calling me..”
“Oh, gotcha,” Izuku responded by going back to his casual smile.

Katsuki turns back to his classmates “Why the hell are you guys here? You're not supposed to
go off-campus without permission! How’d you even wrap four eyes into this?” Katsuki
shouted.

“We could say the same to you about permission and Iida got us permission to leave
campus,” Todoroki explains.

“I got permission as well Icy-hot! You still didn’t answer why you guys are here!?” Katsuki
demanded an answer this time.

“Well…” Uraraka started to hesitate “we followed you because we were worried and wanted
to know where you kept going after school.. We didn’t know you had gotten permission.” she
admits.

Katsuki lets out a combined sigh and loud groan “What the hell you guys are dumb-asses!
You can check with the caterpillar if you don’t believe me but he knows I'm out here.
YESH!”

“Sorry.. Why were you in a tattoo and piercings parlor though and who’s this guy with you?”
Kirishima asks.

Izuku perks up “He was seeing me, I work there.” He gives a cheerful smile.

“How do you know Bakugou, uhm..” Mina started.

“We’ve known each other since we were in diapers and it’s Izuku Midoriya. By appearance,
I’d say.. You're Raccoon Eyes, right? Sorry! I mean Mina Ashido?” Izuku asked.

“Nice to meet you Midobabe! And yeah, Raccoon Eyes is what Bakugou calls me but that’s
me! Mina Ashido!” Mina proudly and happily said.

“Nice to meet you but uhm.. Kinda like Kat I’d rather not be called ‘midobabe’ the ‘Mido’
part is fine though or something else.” Izuku mentioned.

Mina had a bit of a puzzled look “Um yeah sure, sorry. Is Izu and Mido okay?” she asked.

“Yeah, those are good with me!” Izuku smiled once again.

“You said you worked at the parlor, how old are you?” Uraraka Inquired.

“I’m 18, same as you all.” Izuku looked at her to acknowledge her question and smiled, he
didn’t notice this but Bakugou did, Uraraka blushed at Izuku giving her attention.

“Wow, that's cool that you already got a job set and we are still training for our future
careers!” Denki stated excitedly.

“It helped to take advanced classes online and to graduate early. I'm happy with my career.
But don’t hack on yourself, your heroes in training, that's so admirable!” Izuku said excitedly
with a genuine smile.

“Why was Bakubro coming to visit you? Is this where he always goes after school?”
Kirishima inquired, Mina was the only one to catch the hint of jealousy in Kirishima’s tone.

“Um I don’t really know what answer to give on that, we want to see each other so he visits
after classes and on weekends,” Izuku answers honestly.

“Wait on the weekend? He doesn’t stay the night at the dorm on weekends.” Kirishima said.

“Cause I go to my apartment, shitty hair.” Bakugou finally popped in giving an annoying


answer.

“Speaking of which, are we gonna go? We’re losing time as is.” Izuku says.

“Yeah let’s go,” Bakugou answered, they were about to walk away.

“Where are you two going? You know curfew is 11 at the dorms right?” Iida intervenes.

The two were starting to walk off as Bakugou answered “I know that’s why we're going
now!”

“Ou! Can we join you two since we came out here anyway?” Mina asked.

The couple looked at each other and the group could see them both shrug as they looked at
each other, Izuku then turned around to the group “Yeah sure, but we’re just going to hang
out at the apartment.” Izuku says.

The group followed the duo as they went on a train transport until they arrived at the stop and
they went to the apartment. The group was impressed by the nice, cleaned, organized
apartment of Bakugou’s. They all sat in the living room waiting till they left to go there, not
sure where.

“I need a fucking shower I smell so bad from sweating today!” Izuku complained, walking
off to the bedroom.

Bakugou silently snickers with a playful smirk “You're going to be sweaty and smelly later
but go ahead and shower I’ll take one later.” The whole group just looked confused, how is
he being calm and they swear they heard a snicker from him.

“Be nice to your classmates while I shower Angry Dandelion or no special tea!” Izuku shouts
as he closes the bedroom door behind him, the class wanted to comment on the nickname but
they knew better.

“YOU BETTER MAKE THAT TEA!” Katsuki could hear Izuku’s laugh at his response, he
grunted before making his way to the living room pulling out gamer controllers and setting
them on the coffee table. Enough controllers for everyone there.

“Why is he taking a shower at your place Bakubro?” Kirishima asked, finally breaking the
silence from the group.
“Because it’s also his, the fuck?” Bakugou looked confused at Kirishima’s question as if it
was obvious.

“Oh.” was all Kirishima said.

“So what are we doing while we're with you two?” Denki asked.

“What Izu and I typically do. Game for a while with some tea and– shit.” Katsuki paused
himself. Did any of them smoke? Would they try to snitch?

“Bakugou! Not appropriate language!” Iida said.

“Iida were 18, almost 19, we can curse. Leave it be. What was that for dude?” Sero asked.

“How do I work around this.. Um. Oh. Who knows what I’m talking about if I say ‘I got
hella gas’ huh?” Katsuki stated.

“Your gassy?” Uraraka inquired.

“Ohhhhhhhhhhh DUDEEEEE” simultaneously same from Denki and Sero.

“Gas for a car?” Iida asked.

“Gasoline?” Todoroki asked.

“Is it what I think it is..” Mina said.

Sero turned to her “yup!” he said

“Oh yeah! I mean I don't do it but I know what you're talking about” Mina responded

“I’ll just admit I don’t know.” Kirishima replied.

“I know what you're talking about. I don’t partake but I don’t care if others do ~ kero.” Tsuyu
answered.

“Scotch Tape, you think the others that don’t know would be chill with it?” Katsuki asked
Sero.

“Hmm. I don’t think Iida and Uraraka would be chill so they should head back to the dorms. I
don’t think Todoroki and Kirishima will have a problem with it, probably won’t partake
though like Tsu.” Sero stated.

“Ight you heard him! Might wanna head home four-eyes and pink cheeks!” Katsuki hollard.

“NO YELLING KATSUKI!” could be heard from the shower as Izuku yelled.

“Shit.” Katsuki said quietly “SWEAR I’M NOT BEING AN ASS!” Katsuki yelled to Izuku.
“Back me up idiots!” he said to the ‘BakuSquad’.

“HE’S GOOD WE PROMISE!” Sero hollard.


“IF YOU SAY SO!” Izuku shouted back.

“Why should we leave though?” Uraraka asked.

“Thoroughly it’s taking into account that I know what's going on and I’ve heard you on this,
both of you two, you won’t partake in this so just go home. We will all be back before
curfew, we promise Iida.” Sero explained.

“..fine,” Iida said.

“I guess,” Uraraka responded.

“I’ll go ahead and head back as well, I’m actually sleepy ~kero” Tsuyu said.

“That’s fine,” Katsuki said. After the three left, Katsuki asks Todoroki and Kirishima “Do
either of you have a problem with people smoking cannabis? If you do then head out to catch
those three.”

Todorki simply stated “I don’t care. Could I try it as well?”

Katsuki was a little surprised. “Uh yeah sure Icy-hot.”

Kirishima had a look of dumb realization “Oh um. I don’t know, I don’t care, I guess but I
doubt I’ll try it.” he answered.

“That’s fine, not going to make you do anything you don’t wanna. Anyways we're going to
game while we smoke and we were going to go to the skate park and smoke there as well
after but we probably wouldn’t be back in time since Iuz has shit to do around 10 so you all
gotta head out by then but is that cool?” Katsuki explained.

"Yeah man!” Sero answered for the group.

Only a minute passed when Izuku entered the living room and had his and Katsuki’s smoke
box and tray in the room to pack a bowl in a bong and start rolling three joints to pass while
they game. The group all exchanged their names to Izuku, although he had heard of all of
them by Katsuki’s nicknames.

As Kirishima said he would, he didn’t partake. Mina wasn’t partaking happily, enjoying the
company of Sero, Denki, Todoroki, Kirishima, Bakugou, and the new friend. As for Todoroki
he tried it and is now high off his ass. Izuku and Katsuki could see that they were in a room
full of low-tolerance people, aside from Hitoshi he seemed the same, they always find low
tolerances a bit funny and they had a brand new baby stoner and it’s always an honor to
introduce one to the ways of a stoner.

Kirishima never voiced it but he was judging this whole hangout. In his mind, he saw this as
Izuku was a ‘bad guy’ with a ‘bad influence’ on Bakugou keeping him from his ‘real’ friends
and having him partake in smoking. He was starting to wonder based on Izuku’s many
piercings and tattoos did he make Bakugou get the piercings he has as well.
The group is playing Mario Kart while Izuku and Bakugou drink herbal tea and the rest a
soda of their choice and there are veggie croquettes to eat courtesy of Izuku’s cooking.
Everyone has their own type of high there exhibiting, except Kirishima and Mina who
remained sober. He was barely speaking and when he did something seemed off with his tone
like he had something to say but refrained or he was just wanting to leave. They could tell.

Todoroki was way less tense, he was more relaxed with himself. He was also smiling more
than the group would typically get from him. He was easily more giddy than normal as well
so the group was surprised when they got a laugh from the heterochromatic boy. Sero was
more chilled out and calm as well as down to earth, he was quiet which was usual but his
inputs were very short followed by a low laugh due to his cottonmouth. Denki was still very
laughable but he wasn’t as hyper and could keep his train of thought together so he was
following conversations a lot more than usual when he was not high. Mina was laughing and
enjoying her stoned friend's actions, they were all more fun than usual and she was getting a
bit of a second-hand high but she still wasn’t actually high but more chilled.

The group was a bit astonished to discover that a high Katsuki is a calm Katsuki that didn’t
yell and said when he meant with less harsh words, he still had his nicknames to call them
though. He was also smiling with this person he apparently lived with and seemed quite close
with all the nicknames for each other and Izuku was easily matching Katsuki’s
competitiveness while they game keeping him more tamed than the groups seen before. They
had never seen Katsuki smile this much and they were all wondering which of the greens was
affecting him like this, the weed or Izuku.

“So, I'm just wondering. Why is it that you two smoke?” Todoroki asked, seeming to start
getting used to the high and clear his fogginess.

“You talking to us, Icy-Hot?” Katsuki asked, turning to him.

“Mhm.” Todoroki hummed to confirm.

“Um. For Kat, it’s for his OCD, anxiety, and anger as well as to relax his body more with all
those explosions he causes. Surprised you're not deaf, seriously Suki.” Izuku answered for
him knowing Katsuki wouldn’t and ignoring that he was asked as well.

Katsuki bonks Izuku on the head, not harsh very jokingly, and Izuku responds with a whine
“Shut it you dumb green bunny! They didn’t need to know that and you only answered to
ignore that you were asked as well!” Katsuki grunts before continuing “and this nerd smokes
for his chronic pain in his arms and legs as well for his ADHD, depression, and anxiety.
Expose me, I'll expose you bitch.” He looked to Izuku at that last bit, flipping him off which
Izuku responded by doing the same.

“At least I’m not a jackass to say the last reason..” Izuku muttered.

“Well, I didn’t expose that one for you either, little shit,” Katsuki responded.

The group didn’t know what they should be saying to that. Until one finally broke the short
moment of silence from their interaction “Um. same except for the chronic pain bit.”
The group turned to see Denki was the one saying this. They didn’t know he had anxiety let
alone depression, except for Hitoshi and Katsuki from the group.

“Wait, bud depression? Why didn’t you tell us?” Sero asked why putting his hand on Denki’s
shoulder genuinely.

“Um I didn’t wanna bother anyone with it and plus people don’t really believe that a “class
clown” could have depression.” Denki sluggishly answers.

Sero sighed at first before giving him a hug saying “We believe you, and we're here for you.”
before pulling away with a smile.

“We’re all here for you, even Izu, right?” Mina said, looking at Izuku at the end.

Izuku perks up right away “Right! I’m here for you as well and I can’t wait to become better
friends with you Denks! Oh, can I call you Denks?”

Denki genuinely smiles, and looks over to Hitoshi his boyfriend for comfort who gives him a
warm smile and he quickly turns to the rest “Thank you, everyone! I can’t wait to become
better friends with you too Mido and yes you can call me Denks!” he chirps up quickly.

The group all smiles before Sero continues the topic “Well for me I get pain in my elbows
from quirk over usage and smoking helps, it’s also good to destress.”

“I agree on the destress side, also nice to help you relax before sleep with some indica.”
Hitoshi says sleepily.

“Same Toshi, as they say at the dispensary smoke this to be in da couch” Izuku softly laughs
at his remark which is returned with Hitoshi's own quiet laugh making Izuku smile that he
made the guest laugh.

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Kirishima questions, he didn’t get the relation between the
two.

“Dumbass, “in da couch” like indica.” Katsuki clarified.

“Why do they say that about indica, and what even is indica?” Kirishima is still confused.

“Forgot you don’t know shit” Katsuki grunts “There are three strain types of weed: Indica,
Sativa, and Hybrid. To put it simply, Sativa can energize you and Indica can relax and make
you tired. Hybrid is, as said, a hybrid of the two.”

“So the “in da couch” reference is because you smoke indica you're usually trying to relax,
basically sleeping wherever like a couch where stoners usually reside.” Izuku finished
Katsuki’s explanation.

“Oh.” is all Kirishima said quietly.

“Do you two know a lot about marijuana?” Mina asks.


Izuku is the one to answer “Got a friend that works at a dispensary, we both have medical
cards and we look into everything about a strain before we smoke it so we know we’re
getting what we’re wanting for our high. It isn’t always completely as the labels say so we
experiment as well and we will blend strains together and try other herbs with it as well
even.”

“That’s really smart, cool!” Mina explains and turns to the other stoners in the room “Do you
guys have medical cards as well?”

“Yup.” Denki is the first to answer.

“Of course I do,” Sero responds.

“Yeah,” Hitoshi answers quietly.

“Well I, of course, don’t but I might look into it, this is actually helping me relax a lot. More
relaxed than I’ve ever been before actually.” Todoroki isn’t as monotone but not all foggy
from the high when he answers with the last part.

“You sure you wanna pick up the habit Todobro?” Kirishima questions concerningly.

“It’s not cigarettes Kirishima, it does no harm and it’s helping so yes.” Todoroki is monotone
once more before slouching back to his relaxed state as Izuku handed him the lit joint.
Kirishima doesn’t actually respond to the answer, instead opting to stay silent about it.

The rest of the conversations went smooth despite Kirishima's off-put mood but everyone
else was enjoying the company so opted to ignore it until they left. The time did roll around
9:45 when the group left their apartment. Kirishima brought up if Katsuki was coming back
and he reminded him it was Friday so he was staying there for the weekend. With that, the
rest of the group waved and said bye as they left and Izuku and Katsuki cleaned up their
living room, and finally retreated to their bedroom at 9:50 with time for Izuku to get ready for
his scheduled Twitch stream.

'Boom Boom Boy' did join 'Broccoli Boy' for some high gaming sessions.
Walk Home of Judging and -- Go To Sleep Streamer Broccoli
Boy
Chapter Summary

The group headed back home and made it back to the dorms as they reflected a bit
together, back at the Boom Boom Boy and Broccoli Boy's home was a blonde waiting
for a greenette to finish up streaming and go to bed.

Back with the group as they are walking home, Mina speaks up about their discovery and
new questions. “So, not what I expected. A sweet green bean stoner that curses but has many
piercings and tattoos contradicting his sweetness to befriend Bakubro.” She almost said
“babe” and not “bro” but recalled Bakugou didn’t like it and she needed to start getting used
to that.

“Yeah, most certainly not what I was expecting. Or that Bakubro smokes as well and it's
because of his anxiety.” Sero adds on to Mina’s comment.

“I don’t know about this Midoriya dude, he seemed kinda shady,” Kirishima commented
himself.

“They said they have known each other since diapers. I don't see how he’s shady.” Denki
questions.

“Just because they’ve known each other for a long time doesn't mean they know everything
about each other even if they share an apartment. Don’t you find it weird still that he never
hangs out with his friends opting to see the person he lives with? He can just see him on the
weekends; he doesn't have to always go to the green guy when he’s also friends with us.”
Kirishima explained his point.

“Hmm” Sero hummed to himself trying to see his friend's perspective but didn’t feel calmed
down enough yet so simply says “I’m too high for this, can we talk about Midobro later?”

“I guess,” Kirishima says reluctantly. When they return to the dorms it’s 10:48 and Iida and
Uraraka are sitting in the commons waiting for the others to return, luckily Izuku had blunt
effects for the group so they didn’t smell and the walking around in fresh air also helped to
wash the smell of weed away.

When they enter Iida immediately stands doing his typical hand chaps “You were almost late
for curfew! And where is Bakugou-kun!?” he asks loudly.

“We’re here now, and it’s Friday so he’s staying at his apartment for the weekend.” Mina
answers. Kirishima, Mina, Sero, Denki, and Hitoshi gather on the couch where Iida and
Uraraka are before the conversations continue.

“Tsu went to bed already, what were you guys doing over there and why did we have to
leave?” Uraraka inquires with a determined expression but it feels a bit overbearing if you
were to ask Hitoshi and Denki.

Sero is the one who answers “We played video games mostly, and before I continue those
who participated-” minus Todoroki “-are legally allowed to. Some of us got high, Mina and
Kiribro didn’t..”

Iida immediately stood as Uraraka gasped “What do you mean! Did we leave you to do drugs
with that stranger with Bakugou-kun!”

“No!” Sero immediately stood up “We smoked MEDICAL marijuana, that friend with
Bakubro as well as him have medical cards that what I meant by we did so legally, calm
down!”

“But that's drugs Sero-kun!” Uraraka insisted.

“It’s not, marijuana is legal and prescribed to those with a medical card like I have myself.”
At this point, Sero pulls out his wallet and then his medical card to show the group.

Iida hesitated “I-I suppose I can’t lecture you if you're not doing it illegally. Just please be
safe when you partake.”

“Of course, we always are.” Sero answers. Iida and Uraraka leave the group and go to their
dorms.

“Todobro doesn’t have a card. Why did you lie Hanabro?” Kirishima questioned.

“Because it would cause unnecessary problems since he’s going to look into getting a
medical card. We’re not hurting anyone or ourselves but you’ve seemed to have a problem
with it all night. Is everything alright bro?” Sero says.

Kirishima tried to restrain it but he annoyingly grunted a bit “Just don’t like that this guy has
such influence over Bakubro and influenced him to smoke and get piercings and will
probably convince him to get tattoos all over and he’ll start giving him a bad reputation and
that will affect him in the future.” he tried to hide his jealousy starting to build up.

Denki is the one who steps into the conversation this time “I don’t know man… Bakubro
seemed quite happy hanging with his roomie and I’ve never seen him smile so much or, ever
actually, and we even heard him laughing a bit tonight even.”

Kirishima starts to falter cause he knows what he said is accurate, Mina intervened rescuing
him however “If your that worried we can try to ask Bakubro to bring Mido over here
sometime to go with him to hang out with him to get a better idea of what he’s like before we
judge, alright Kiribabe?” she asks.

Kirishima sighs and gives a shrug “I guess.” is all he says and soon the rest all went their way
to their dorm rooms to get sleep or just occupy their time.
In Sero’s perspective, he thought Izuku Midoriya was pretty cool without even knowing the
full story; he knows that Bakugou has known him since they were “in diapers” and that he
makes Bakugou smile and happier than he’s ever seen. He remembers the days Bakugou
seemed unusually calm than normal and he’s now relating that to he was definitely high in
class those days, so this happiness was definitely coming from his time with Izuku. He was
happy that his classmate and friend and comrade has a good friend like that.

Hitoshi and Denki both discussed with each other that they agree Izuku was a nice guy that is
definitely close to Bakugou not just because they have known each other since diapers but
they remained close, now even living together and they could see the sexual tension between
the two they wondered if they were oblivious to it or if they were already dating. Neither of
them really thought to ask until they had already left so they left it.

To Mina, subtracting all his piercings and tattoos he was really sweet and especially caring to
Bakugou. She didn’t really care that they were smoking, she knew the medical benefits but
she didn’t partake herself. Bakugou was more calm and relaxed than she had ever seen, she
wondered if it was the weed or the greenette that had that effect and if there was a possible
ship there, then she felt bad thinking that because she knew that Kirishima was crushing on
him so she decided she wouldn’t push on anything and just work with seeing what kind of
person this Izuku is, maybe he danced?

Kirishima was a mixture of the Izuku guy who seemed actually pretty nice despite the tattoos
and piercings impression and the curing he was used to hearing from Bakugou by now, but
also wanted to know why they were that close he thought he was getting close to Bakugou
but he didn’t know that Katsuki lived in an apartment with a friend his age. He didn’t know if
they were more than friends but he couldn’t help but feel jealous of Izuku being so close to
Bakugou and possibly messing his chances. But all the faults he had to point out were quite
superficial and he knew it but still couldn’t help it, just seething into his jealousy.

Iida was perplexed, Bakugou smoked and so did some of his other classmates, he had mixed
opinions about the legality of marijuana so he decided he would look into it. He had already
checked with Aizawa that he did give Bakugou permission to leave campus, which he
confirmed. He discussed this with Uraraka more and they both decided they would let it be
since they weren’t breaking any laws or rules but they did want to know more about Izuku
since he lived with their classmate.

As for Tysuu, she didn’t really care much, she wasn’t getting any red flags from this Izuku
and she knew Bakugou wasn’t the type to smoke unless he had a reason to and a medical
card, so the only curiosity she had was their reasoning for smoking. Otherwise, she didn’t see
anything wrong as it’s not like she doesn’t have friends outside of school as well and some of
them had medical cards as well.

Back at the Izuku and Katsuki’s apartment Izuku started his twitch stream right at 10 p.m. as
he always did during the weekdays Monday through Friday. He did a try not to laugh
challenge with short videos sent to him by his viewers through different social media
platforms of his. He lost all 5 lives after 2 and a half hours. Then he gamed with some of his
streamer friends on Mario party and by the time it was 2:50 there was the sound of a voice
the stream was used to hearing off-camera by now saying “It’s almost 3, you need to sleep
dumbass!” so Izuku, or as Twitch knows him as 'broccoli boy' apologized for 'boom boom
boy's outburst' he was never in view of the camera though, and soon after that he ended his
stream.
Past Streaming and Reconciliation
Chapter Summary

A look into Izuku's past on streaming as well as the sludge incident, rooftop w/ All
Might, attempt the rescue 'Kacchan' and Izuku and Katsuki's reconciliation.

Chapter Notes

If it's a bit confusing how class 1-A doesn't know of Izuku being a semi-famous well-
known Twitch/YT streamer is because of the variety of content and viewers that Izuku
has, simply pure coincidence that some of class 1-A that do like watching streamers has
not come across Izuku's Twitch or Youtube channel. (plot device? lol)

Izuku considered himself to have two main jobs, neither was treated as a side job for himself.
He managed to get into an online high school right after junior high and because of his own
academic level, he quickly graduate high school early just a year and a half after starting. It
only took him the half left of the year to become a certified licensed tattoo artist, he started
working on getting certified to be a piercer soon after.

A year before Izuku and Katsuki were to finish at Aldera Junior High, Izuku at only thirteen
had started a Twitch channel where he would stream gaming while talking with the chat.
Almost a year into it, he started picking up fame real quick which he was not expecting to.

After finding a few youtube channels with just VODs or clips of his stream he figured he
should probably get into uploading some of his streams on YouTube and edit them as well.
Film editing was a new skill he had to start self-teaching since he didn’t have anyone helping
him on this Twitch stream.

A few months after starting a YouTube channel, during one of his streams, Izuku was doing a
typical off-the-top of his head mumble about things to his chat where he posed the query of if
they would wanna see any vlog type of videos with him doing some things or talking vlogs to
which his chat was filled with many ‘yes’ responses.

The hype the chat would have would often make him wonder about the difference it would
have if they all knew he was quirkless but would keep pushing that thought away from
himself the best he can.

Because his chat seemed actually interested in such, Izuku decided to take his camera out
with him one day for some vlogging as he skated at an old skate park that people didn’t often
go to many trying out different tricks and showing what he already can do. Even though his
chat seemed enthusiastic about the vlogs he wasn’t expecting the large amount of feedback he
got from his first vlog type of video.

Turned out the chat often found him humorous, not that there weren’t any haters in the chat
but Izuku would use mods that he’s programmed parts for himself and asks the chat to not
spread the hate even if they are trying to stop the one originally speaking bad doing it back to
them. Izuku may deal with facing the ridicule but he didn’t want to let any of that spread to
anyone.

Wasn’t long until on top of his gaming and skating vlogs, Izukus channel had a variety of
gaming, skating, parkour, gymnastics, doing art, playing guitar or ukelele, e-sport
tournaments, gaming lobbies with other streamers, and more activities that he has tried out.
He even does challenge, interactive, etc. types of streams like ‘Laugh and Stream Ends’ or a
chat interactive online trivia games. He has even shown off a few of the skills he’s picked up
from some of the dojos he frequents. As well as he’s done talking streams that would include
things from quirkism, quirk analyses, hero rankings, mental health, pre-quirk era, etc. of
topics that can be deep or controversial topics where he enforces people to remain open-
minded in his chat or he will ban chatters, he will do more relaxed topics as well where a chat
can be more joking.

Even with his chat rules in place as well as the mods and establishing boundaries, his chat
still likes to ‘bully’ him, well more like teasing him. They would tease him on his mumbled
rants, especially on quirk analyses which at first he thought they genuinely were bothered by
it until it was explained by the chatters that they thought it was ‘cute’ and ‘endearing’ as well
as shows how smart he is.

Izuku had many things that made him self-conscious that wasn’t just his lack of quirk, there
were things about his appearance that made him self-conscious as well as changes he liked
about himself but felt too embarrassed and lacked the confidence to present himself as he’d
like. Izuku already had given himself two ear piercings in each ear by the time he was eleven,
but his unruly curls tended to hide his ears from view. He had started painting his nails on a
random whim of boredom when he was ten, after that he’d continuously touch up his black
nails.

However, he felt that the public would be off-put by these ‘differences’ he has, now reaching
his fifteenth birthday Izuku already had the revelation that he identifies as gay and he knows
that an often assumption about males painting their nails is that they are gay but he hadn’t yet
come out to anyone so he wanted to try to keep those things under wraps.

It didn’t help his anxiety on the stream one day someone in chat made noticed that Izuku had
painted his nails black, he had forgotten to remove the nail polish which he also found
annoying when he forgot something since he had a photographic memory but he had to
remind himself that even people with eidetic or photographic memory can forget things.

Things became surprising to him when he saw that the chatters were complimenting his nails
and not making fun of them, that was new and different. There wasn’t even someone making
an assumption about him, at least not that he saw, if they did chances are the mods had
removed it before it could reach Izuku. The moment gave him a bit of a confidence boost
when he asked his chat's opinion on guys wearing earrings and once more he was surprised to
see so many supportive words and excited about the concept so he removes his headset and
pushed his hair back to reveal that he had ear piercings.

Another thing that seemed to pull in so many viewers for Izuku was the region of possible
viewers was very expanded for him because he could speak both Japanese and English so
making his own software to be applied during his live streams whether you speak English or
Japanese you could watch because he would sometimes do an all English stream with
Japanese subtitles and vice versa or have some streams where he would alternate the
language he spoke and the subtitles would alternate as well. He was still picking up some
English and working on learning Spanish as well so he would always have Spanish subtitles
as well.

Despite the plain negligence Izuku received at home Izuku was getting content with things,
especially with what he was gaining with the streams when the first check come in he had to
forcefully keep himself from yelling in surprise so as to not let his mother aware. He still had
a bit of a wish for the heroics as a career but he was also starting to consider another option at
this time. The idea was surprisingly given to him by his Twitch chat when they noticed the
detailed drawings that Izuku did on his arm to which they suggested that Izuku would be an
amazing tattoo artist. He thought that sounded pretty cool and enjoyable, if he managed to get
into heroics somehow he would definitely look for tattoo artistry as another career.

Izuku was glad that Aldera Junior High was reaching the end of the school year then he could
move on to high school, but towards the last few weeks, an encounter Izuku hadn’t expected
happened. He was only making his way back through the tunnel he was used to going
through when he heard a strange slushing sound behind him and when he turned around he
saw a sludge-like quirked person piling themselves together before punching on Izuku.

Izuku immediately went to fight back but before either had an upper hand in the situation,
what Izuku feels is safe to assume is a villain, when the villain is suddenly splattered by a
strong force. The force even made Izuku's small body falter back before he registered what or
who had arrived as it was his one top hero idol, All Might.

Izuku was flustered and excited and bewildered as well and started mumbling, All Might
even sign Izuku’s notebook for him but after that Izuku had a question. Except All Might was
going to think and in a brilliant moment of not thinking one bit, Izuku lunged forward
grabbing ahold of All Might's legs latching a grip as All Might projected himself into the air.
They ended up landing on a roof safely and collected themselves as Izuku started to mumble
with the intent to ask a question.

Though Izuku was mostly rambling it was made out that he asked “can I still be a hero even
if I’m quirkless?” explaining how he’s always aspired to be him but since he’s quirkless he
gets picked on a lot, which was actually an understatement. Suddenly after Izuku got his
question out a puff of smoke appeared suddenly from All Might, once it cleared away Izuku
saw what was a skinny skeleton man with deeply shaded eyes and screamed “Imposter!”
which he internally snickered because he said ‘imposter’.

At this point, All might figure he had to explain so told Izuku how he was injured by his
greatest rival that’s made his heroics have a 5 hour a day time limit, so no he wasn’t an
imposter it was just how he actually looked. He had Izuku promise that he wouldn’t tell a
single soul what he learned about All Might, and he promised.

Without leaving much time to take in the information All Might thinks about it but then tells
Izuku “I can’t simply say you can become a hero without power, you would get in the way or
get hurt without a quirk. I’m sorry kid, it’s a noble profession but think more realistically like
a cop. They may get made fun of a bit since Heros do the public work but it’s still a noble
profession as well. Sorry kid I really don’t think you can become a hero without a quirk.”
with that All Might exited the roof by stairs leaving Izuku alone up there. He stayed frozen
for a good minute or two before finally moving, his dreams had just been crushed by his
favorite hero and idol.

Taking the day's events into account Izuku was really starting to think about that “swan dive”
suggestion, not because of Bakugou though but more of just tired of his life and torment
when he just wants a person to believe in him that he can be a hero. He stood looking over
the edge for maybe 10 could have been more or less, he could only guess, contemplating both
sides of the option eventually he sighed as the streets below him started overflowing with
people, he couldn’t traumatize passerbyers with his death like that so he left the roof again
making his way home.

As he made his way home there were disruptions of civilians yelling in a panic and what
seemed to be conflicted heroes not moving as they watched a scene. When Izuku made his
way to the front of the crowd he saw the very same villain that had attacked him now
attacking his childhood friend Katsuki. He may have been a bully for Izuku now but he still
very much cared for Katsuki. His mind starts racing about how it could have happened and
realized that All Might must have stopped it while in the air with him. Internalizing his self-
blaming Izuku couldn’t bear the sight of Katsuki dying and he sees how absolutely no hero is
helping to save him.

Before Izuku could think about it his feet started moving on his own and he ran towards the
villain that had its grasp on Katsuki. Izuku throws his book bag as a diversion in the slime
villain's face and quickly grabs Katsuki to pull him out. When Katsuki notices Izuku he
shouts at him “What are you doing go away you quirkless Deku!” but Izuku ignores him as
he claws away from the slime and is able to grasp Katsuki before and finally yanks Katsuki
out and away from the villain as he himself clumsily falls back after doing so. Katsuki is still
in a state of shock at the events taking place and Izuku is regaining his balance as the slime
villain regains his clarity and starts running in at the boys only to be suddenly blown to
smithereens by an appearance of All Might.

After calming the scene down, All Might had to handle reporters and authorities while Izuku
got berated by the heroes for his recklessness, and Katsuki was unwillingly checked for
injuries before they were let go to be on their way leaving the scene of All Might around
reporters, policemen, and other heroes making Izuku briefly wonder if All Might is gonna be
able to get out of there in time before putting turning and making his way back home once
more.

As Izuku was once again trying to head home when he was getting just a block or two away
from home he hears someone shouting for him from behind. He turns around to see Katsuki
rushing up to him and slowing down as he got closer and officially stopping about a foot or
two away from another. Izuku wasn’t sure what he wanted so he just had a confused and
perplexed expression at the clearly conflicted and angry looking blonde.

“What the hell was that!?” the blonde yelled.

“Huh?” Izuku deadpanned. He really didn’t get what Katsuki was saying though.

“What was that!? Why did you try to save me back there!? Not like I needed help in the first
place, let alone your help!” Katsuki shouted emphasizing the ‘your’ that refers to Izuku.

“What do you mean? I couldn’t just sit back and watch you die..” Izuku started getting quiet
as the sentence carried.

“I didn’t need OR want your help you damn Deku! And why would you try pulling a stunt
like that in the first place after what I said to you!?” Katsuki shouted more loudly.

Izuku’s brain froze for a second at what Katsuki was referring to, the comment Katsuki just
said sounded like he regretted it, “Do– Did you not mean that?” hesitantly he asked, Izuku
wanted, more like felt he needed to know whether or not Katsuki meant it and if he regretted
it if not.

“I–” Katsuki stumbled over his words at the start for a second which was a bit surprising to
both him and Izuku, “I didn’t mean it. Obviously, I didn’t mean that Deku. I shouldn’t have
even said that,” he explained with as calm of an expression he can but subconsciously he
looks a bit defeated by the admission.

It helped Izuku to hear that, he hoped Katsuki didn’t mean it, he Katsuki wouldn’t really wish
death upon someone but he couldn’t help the doubts he felt and the other thoughts in his
head, so he sought further conformation, “Do you, um– do you regret saying that any?” he
asks.

Katsuki just looked at Izuku, as if observing something up and down before settling on his
green eyes “Yes.” he says simply.

Izuku could tell he was being genuine, also knows that Katsuki doesn’t often level with
people like this, “Um, thanks I think? I am glad to know that at least.” Izuku says.

“Yeah, yeah nerd,” Katsuki replies as he looks down kicking a small pebble at his foot. It was
getting awkward and they could both feel it.

“So I umm, I got to meet All Might,” Izuku says unsure of where things are going, Katsuki’s
still here and it wasn’t like Izuku ran up to him so he didn’t want to leave without Katsuki
doing so first but the awkwardness was too, well, awkward.

“Yeah no shit, I just briefly meet him too! I was right there ya nerd.” Katsuki states and little
agitated at the obviously known comment.

“No, no, I mean before what had happened there!” Izuku corrected quickly. He started to rub
the back of his neck sheepishly before looking more guilty there “actually it was my fault the
sludge villain even got to attack you there..” Izuku says.

“Okay, what the hell are you talking about! Explain, NOW, Deku!” Katsuki demands with
confused eyes at what Izuku is trying to say.

“Um, so you know that tunnel we used to take together until our moms said it wasn’t a good
part of town?” Izuku asks.

“Of course I do.” Katsuki replies.

“Well, I still take that route home–” Izuku say what Katsuki’s expression was saying “-Don’t
tell mom or Auntie! I have to so I can avoid Tesaki and the others…” he quickly explained.

Katsuki’s eye twitched in annoyance but understood why so he nonverbally agrees to not tell
their parents and motions Izuku to carry on.

Izuku continues “Well earlier when I was walking through it that slime or sludge villain had
attacked me the same it did you, yeah sludge forced down your nostrils and throat isn't fun...
But then All Might arrived and he saved me! He had secured the villain in this bottle he had
on him and he was about the jump away but I was trying to ask him a question and I didn’t
think when I jumped and grabbed a hold of his leg. He was definitely startled when he
realized I was holding onto his leg… I think that’s how he dropped the villain which lead to
you getting attacked by it…. I’m so sorry Kacchan!” he exclaims at the end.

Katsuki had to take this part in at first, “Well for starters that is the stupidest thing I’ve ever
known you to do when you grabbed his leg, and no, sludge down your nose and mouth isn’t
fun… And don’t blame yourself for stupid shit like that, even if you played part in All Might
losing the villain it doesn’t make it your fault it attacked me. It’s the villain's fault, they made
the choice to attack, not you, so shut the fuck up on the self-blame!” his volume built up.

Izuku was taken aback by that, and it showed on his face, Katsuki had to of noticed the
expression because he ‘tsked’ in response. Izuku looked down fidgeting with his fingers a bit
as he softly spoke out “yeah.. okay.”

Katsuki grunted in acknowledgment of that before asking “What the hell kind of question
were you trying to ask anyway? Some nerdy quirk analyst question?”

Izuku laughed a small quiet amount at the ‘nerdy’ comment, “No Kacchan, it wasn’t some
quirk analyst-related question. It was a stupid question in the first place that I already knew
the answer to.”

“So what the fuck was the question then?” Katsuki asked with curiosity and annoyance
growing.

“Um. Well, I had asked him if I could be a hero even if I’m quirkless…” Izuku finally gives
the answer to what Katsuki had asked in the first place.

Katsuki had a face of ‘Oh’ as that made more sense, “What did he say?” he ended up asking.
“He said he doesn’t honestly think someone without a quirk can be a hero and that I would
just be in the way and get hurt so I should think more realistically after that, he left,” Izuku
explains trying to be very nonchalant.

Katsuki’s expression turned into more anger as well as shock, Izuku didn’t know how what
he said made Katsuki angrier. Katsuki was already going there an internal struggle involving
Izuku and how he treated Izuku, he can now agree to know that he isn’t not acting right or
treating Izuku right but hearing that Izuku’s hero, his idol, turned him down crashed his
dreams and leaving him alone on a rooftop, today of all days, after what Katsuki had said to
him.

“Okay… I was trying to contain my anger because I’m not mad at you..” Katsuki started to
explain, “But what the ever-loving fuck! What I’ve done is already bad enough so what the
actual fuck! He left you on a roof! After what I had said earlier! That's just so– fucked!”
Katsuki hadn’t noticed his eyes started to tear up but Izuku most certainly did.

“Kacchan..?” Izuku hesitantly and questioningly says.

There was no real thought given at this moment but Katsuki just let the words that wanted to
come out, come out, as he said “I’m sorry De–Izuku. I know that can’t make up for what I’ve
done, there's never going to be a way for me to redeem myself I know that but I am sorry and
you never once deserved any of that.”

If Izuku wasn’t really taken aback earlier, he really was now, he actually just received an
apology from Katsuki for his actions. It’s like Izuku stopped breathing as he stared at
Katsuki, he was trying to find the words as verbally he wasn’t getting anywhere in forming
the words.

Finally, dots started to connect for him to articulate his words correctly as Izuku started to
actually speak, “You don’t know how much it means to me to hear that Kacchan, your
forgiven and I can’t say this makes everything okay, but it makes things better.” Izuku ends
with a soft but warm bright smile to Katsuki.

Things slowly started to get awkward again after apologies so they decided to continue
sorting things out after they decided to walk to Izuku’s house together and Katsuki would
actually come over to hang out.

Katsuki explained his jealousy and self-doubting that they both coupled with everyone
always praising him as what helped to create a high horse’ per se in his ego he felt that even
though Izuku was quirkless he was above him and he hated that. He admitted to his
wrongdoings and apologized for everything he had ever done to Izuku and that he went way
too far with his last comment in school today, he didn’t know why he said that, but he wanted
Izuku to know he doesn’t want him dead that's very much the opposite.
Izuku explained how he was never looking down on Katsuki, ever, that he was his in-person
idol and hero that he wanted to be just like him. Izuku told him how he never hated Katsuki
for what he did and they knew that they would have to start working together on things if
they really wanted to repair things between them.
Talking things out seemed to really clarify things and clear up misunderstandings between
them, when they made it to the apartment that Izuku and Inko live in together they were so
deep in the whole conversation or trying to repair things that they just sat down on the couch
as soon as entering and continued on. They were now at an understanding that neither of
them was and they wouldn’t look down on the other and neither of them would think
themselves better than the other and they would start communicating if there is even a
miscommunication or misunderstanding between them.

With the larger and heavier parts of their rocky past being spoken through, with the idea of
relaxing back now Izuku offered that they could play video games in Izuku’s room. Katsuki
was surprised cause he didn’t think Izuku was the gamer type but agreed as Izuku grabbed
them a few snacks before they would go back to Izuku’s bedroom.

When they first walked into Izuku’s bedroom, Katsuki was surprised by the ‘nerds’ room to
say the least.
A Few Discoveries Were Made
Chapter Summary

In continuation of Katsuki's and Izuku's reconciliation, they learn some stuff about each
other that they missed out on.

Izuku’s room had definitely changed over the years, there was still a presence of heroes in his
room with the majority of it being All Might and there being a few of what Katsuki assume is
probably underground heroes since there are a few hero merch items with heroes he doesn’t
recognize.

Another thing he doesn’t recognize is the corner of the room that’s set up like a workout
section with a punching bag hanging and a lifting bench with different size weights all beside
it with a few other workout types of equipment.

Izuku used to have an All Might-themed bed frame but it was now just a plain black bed
frame, the blankets were all solid colors as well except the throw blanket that had All Might
depicted on it. On top of the nightstand beside the bed rests an amp speaker which was
brought to Katsuki’s attention when he noticed the few different guitars propped on the wall
above Izuku’s bed, as well as a sole ukelele.

There is another corner that looks like an art area that has a canvas on an easel with a few art
pieces hanging up on the wall around it and even more stacked behind each other on the floor
but it seemed like the majority of them were black and white, done with pen, while some had
a little color or was filled with colors. Katsuki had seen Izuku drawing on his own arm with
pens plenty of times before or actually drawing on paper but he had never paid attention to
what the drawing was until now. He couldn’t deny that Izuku was an excellent artist.

There is also a long black desk, long enough to equate to two desks, up against the wall with
multiple computer monitors with computer symptoms and gaming consoles around and
beside them with a webcam, lights, and mic set up. There's a black, grey, and dark green
gamer chair that’s placed pushed in at the desk. Katsuki also noticed the four-panel black
screen room divider that was folded up and placed propped on the wall beside the desk.

Katsuki was preoccupied with observing the room set up and the addition of posters from
bands, animes, games, and even a few different types of skateboards hung on the wall that he
didn’t notice what was on the crown of the room until Izuku went the turn them on the turn
the main light off. Izuku turned on the LED lights he had around the room and turned them
on the color green as well as turned on the standing lamp behind the easel that way the room
was well lit even without the main light on.
Katsuki just sorta observes as Izuku mumbles out a ‘one minute’ stepping out of his room
and returning with an extra office chair for Katsuki to use. Izuku rolled it up to the desk
beside his gamer chair before turning to Katsuki “Oh yeah, I forgot to ask, do you prefer to
game in dimmer lights how I have it now, or do you prefer the main overhead light to be on?”
he asks.

Finally, Katsuki had been snapped from his long gaze of observing this new room, “Oh um,
dimmed like this is fine.” he answers.

“Awesome!” Izuku replied happily releasing the chair he brought in like he was still trying to
figure out what to do next before Katsuki replied.

“Your rooms definitely changed more than I expected. I figured it would still be covered in-
hero merch.” Katsuki says.

“Well, heh–” Izuku rubbed his shoulder as if thinking “When you don’t have anyone to spend
time with you end up with a lot of free time on your hands, and what else to do with that than
pick up new hobbies and I guess they just accumulated to merging into my room if I really
got into it and the hero merch started to decrease. I even sold quite a few things of mine
already to save up for all this gaming equipment.” he explains.

“What is with all this shit anyway? I have a gaming system set up as well but I don’t need so
many monitors, an extra keyboard, webcam, mic, lighting, pro headset and controllers as well
as some more professional looking equipment for simple gaming.” Katsuki couldn’t help but
ask.

“I just really got into software programming and coding along with the gaming and some
other tech stuff I guess.” Izuku shrugs with an answer as he grabs an extra headset and hands
it to Katsuki who accepts it.

“Sure…” Katsuki said with a watchful eye at Izuku, not that he was completely lying but that
Katsuki could tell that wasn’t it.

“Here for you” Izuku motioned that Katsuki could take a seat in the chair he had brought
before Izuku took a seat himself in his gaming chair. They then went through some of the
games that Izuku had before settling on Mario Party Smash Bros since they both knew how
to play it. After they settled in to get ready to play before Izuku put on his headset he went to
do what had become a habit at this point for when he went to the game, especially now that
he’s more comfortable with his Twitch chat.

Izuku grabbed a black scrunchie to pull the top half of his hair into a random little bun to
keep his hair out of his face, then he hears a sudden “what the fuck” beside him.

“Huh?” Izuku voices as he turned his head to Katsuki.

“Since when do you have your ears pierced let alone two in each?” Katsuki exclaims the
question.
“Oh um, I kinda did it myself a few years ago… mom was pretty mad about it…” Izuku
admits that because he had left a blood stain in the bathroom went unsaid.

“Well don’t fucking give yourself a piercing and maybe she wouldn’t have cared!” He
exclaimed like it was obvious, “either way it looks good I just didn’t expect you to be the
type to have piercings even eventually” Katsuki explains.

Izuku had to make himself move after he semi-froze looking at Katsuki, that was a surprising
comment from him and Izuku just keeps feeling surprised. “Oh, uhm, thank you Kacchan,”
Izuku says as he starts picking a character to fight as.

Katsuki seemed to catch on as he started looking for a character as well after a mumbled
“yeah” in response.

After they settled on a chosen character and began the game they both started the in-game
fight by going for the first blow and soon they were in a back-and-forth clashing fight where
Katsuki was starting to struggle against Izuku. Katsuki spared a split second to glance at
Izuku to see his eyes completely enthralled in the game so he immediately went back to the
game. After what could only be guessed as forty or so minutes, the game finally ended, and
Katsuki lost.

“What the fuck! Rematch! There is no way really beat me at this! How!” Katsuki started
screaming after he stood up as soon as he lost. He’s staring at the monitor in anger before he
looks over to Izuku who seems to have the expression of a deer in headlights about to start on
a mumbled rant of apologies if Katsuki’s intuition says anything. So he closed his eyes as he
let out an exhausted breath calming himself as he opened his eyes right after. “Chill out, I
didn’t mean that as I’m actually pissed at you just– how’d you get so good at this?” he asks.

Izukus expression softened at that into a verbal “Oh.” before Izuku really responded “I guess
just same reason my rooms not so filled with hero merch? I have a lot of free time..” he says
fidgeting with his fingers.

“Suprised auntie lets you sit in here and game away instead of making you focus on your
studies more,” Katsuki responds leaning back into his chair and putting his arms behind his
hands.

“I always keep up with my studies, besides she doesn’t really care.” Izuku shrugs watching
the monitor while looking through the character options once more.

“What do you mean? Of course, she cares, she used to cry when the littlest thing happened to
you.” Katsuki responds but actually sits up and gives his attention more to Izuku.

“Nothing really,” Izuku says.

“Nothing?” Katsuki asks untrustingly.

“Nothing.” Izuku shrugs.


Katsuki grunts annoyed at that answer, “sure.” he responds, he doesn’t really believe Izuku
when he says it’s ‘nothing’ but he can tell he’s not gonna get anything on that at the moment
so instead he opted to resume attention to the computer monitor to continue gaming.

They spent a few hours gaming, they at one point switched to a different game, but after that
Katsuki moved into asking Izuku about the other things Izuku does. Izuku also takes the
opportunity to get to know what he’s missed about Katsuki during the time of their strained
friendship.

Katsuki learns that Izuku has been teaching himself how to play the acoustic and bass guitar
as well as a ukelele and that he’s actually not that bad at it. Izuku managed to convince
Katsuki to sing a few verses of a song they both know while he played the chorus, it had been
a while since Izuku heard Katsuki sing and his voice had definitely changed since then but
Izuku hadn’t expected Katsuki to sing so well. Katsuki was just in the moment singing along
distracted by Izuku’s playing and Izuku’s own beautiful voice.

Another thing Katsuki learns is that Izuku skateboards and mix in parkour with it as well and
wait, the nerd does parkour? “Yeah, not sure exactly how I fell into that but it’s relaxing
going through the air and it’s a lot of fun doing it with a skateboard as well!” Izuku explained
to Katsuki.

Izuku learns that Katsuki also skateboards but that he hadn’t done parkour before, so he
offers to show Katsuki what he knows and suggests they could learn more together even.
Izuku thought Katsuki might not like this but surprisingly he was still laxer than expected
about it and was up for it.

Katsuki at one point asked about the workout corner Izuku had set up, that's when Izuku
elaborated that he started frequenting different martial art dojos for some protection. Katsuki
had to question that more, he recognized how Izuku didn’t really voice the desire for heroics
much more but he didn’t know what this was inferring.

Turned out that it wasn’t exactly that Izuku didn’t want to become a hero anymore but that he
wasn’t solely trying for that. This is where Katsuki got more context for Izuku’s art setup,
apparently, some stranger gave him the idea of pursuing a tattoo artist career. That was
unexpected to Katsuki, he didn’t think Izuku would be the type of person interested in tattoos
either doing it one someone or himself.

When Katsuki thought back to how often Izuku would draw on himself he started to see how
that actually made more sense now. He could see Izuku with some tattoos and giving some
tattoos as well.

Eventually, Izuku managed to shift the conversation more to the side of about Katsuki. Izuku
wanted to check in on how things were between Katsuki and Mitsuki, he knew Mitsuki loved
Katsuki but that she didn't have a good way of showing it and her version of 'tough love'
could often be tougher than necessary to the point of it being mentally harmfully. He
wondered if she still yelled at him like he was used to seeing if she still berated his attitude
with a smack to the head and a degrading comment or if she still pressured Katsuki on being
better.
Turned out that Mitsuki hadn’t changed in any of her ways but that Katsuki didn’t even
recognize that how his mother treated him wasn’t exactly okay. It lead to an in-depth
conversation that Katsuki wasn’t expecting out of the blue.

Katsuki felt like Izuku was some counselor speaking to him almost, he hadn’t known the
impact his mother had on him let alone the other people in his life encouraging the brash
behavior and action of putting others consider ‘lesser’ underneath him. Katsuki had tried to
deny his internal struggle of what he knows now is considered a superiority complex and
what he tried to deny as inferiority.

At one point they had noted that it seemed that they both had some mental problems to work
through, resulting in Katsuki getting surprised by Izuku’s sarcastic and dark joke he made
about them both being ‘mentally fucked up’ leading to an even more surprised Katsuki at
having heard Izuku curse.
New Kind of Weekend
Chapter Summary

The day after the run-in with some of class 1a following Katsuki to see Izuku at work,
some normalcy and something new.
Takes place the morning after chapter three.

Katsuki woke up around eight in the morning to an exhausted Izuku sprawled partially on top
of him and partially across the bed. The weekends were always the nicest for Katsuki, Izuku
would stream more on the weekends but Izuku would have some weekends off just so they
could enjoy their company with each other. This was thankfully one of those weekends where
Izuku wouldn’t be streaming.

Katsuki remained in bed not moving for a few minutes until he went to poke Izuku’s face
gently with a whisper of “time to wake up sleepy head” which of course prompted no
response from Izuku’s sleeping state. After a few more gentle attempts and no responses,
Katsuki felt forced to result to sliding out of bed himself before pulling Izuku off the bed into
the floor for a wake-up call.

“AHH! What the hell!” Izuku shouted as soon as the hit to the floor woke him up. Izuku
looked up annoyed at his blonde boyfriend who was now just laughing at Izuku on the floor,
he reached up on the bed pulling a pillow down before throwing it right at Katsuki’s face
making him stumble back a bit.

“Hey!” Katsuki shouted.

“Hey yourself!” Izuku shouted back as he lifted himself off the floor.

“Not my fault you sleep like a log Izu, you should get up anyways we got a few errands to
run since your not streaming any this week.” Katsuki states.

Izuku groans as he plops back onto the bed “Your right…” then after taking in a deep breath
and releasing it he stands up and walks over to Katsuki as he asks “I’ll make some tea and
you make some breakfast?” to which Katsuki hums in response while nodding ‘yes’ as they
walked to the kitchen together.

Katsuki made pancakes topped with syrup and powdered sugar while Izuku made them a cup
of earl grey and stem tea. After their breakfast was made they enjoyed while watching the
news before taking themselves to shower and then getting dressed for the day.

Izuku and Katsuki both have a pretty similar style with some differences here and there.
Izuku got dressed in baggy ripped dark blue jeans with a black belt to hold the pants up that
has extra of the strap dangling. Katsuki put on baggy black cargo pants with a black belt that
has the extra length of the strap dangling. Izuku puts on a baggy black t-shirt that has an
upside-down yellow smiley face drawn on and Katsuki has a baggy plain black t-shirt thrown
on.

They didn’t have any serious things to do today that required them to look more formal so
they stuck to their casual wear. They grabbed their own phone, wallet, and water bottle and
while Izuku grabbed the dab pen Katsuki grabbed the car keys as they made their way out the
door.

By the time they headed out, it was a bit after ten, the first trip they had to make was stopping
by the bank for Izuku to cash in his paycheck before then making their insurance and rents
payment. Once they were finished with that it was a few minutes past eleven-thirty so they
start to make their way to Mitsuki and Masaru’s residence.

The reemergence of Izuku in the Bakugou household coincided with Mitsuki and Katsuki
starting to repair some of their damaged relationships and nowadays is a lot easier when it
comes to the two conversing than it is used to be. The Bakugou couple even insisted on
helping with paying for groceries or bills even but that was all more like Izuku and Katsuki
were forced to let them help.

They were going over there for lunch together like they normally would every once and a
while when they had free time they weren’t using it all to themselves. The two managed to
arrive only a few minutes before twelve, which was the agreed-upon time they would come
over.

Neither of them got a chance to knock and announce their presence when none other than
Mitsuki swings the door open with a big smile as she loudly says “Boys! It’s so good to see
you!” before bringing them both into a hug that was a bit reluctant on Katsuki’s side but
nonetheless accepted and reciprocated.

“Yeah, yeah. You two.” Katsuki responds.

“It’s good to see you as well Auntie!” Izuku replies as he pats her back when hugging before
she releases both of them.

“Masaru is just finishing setting up the table to eat,” Mitsuki explains as she moves over out
of the way for Izuku and Katsuki to enter and then closes the door behind them.

They all start walking toward the dining room as Katsuki asks “What’s for lunch this time?”

“Kitsune Udon Noodles!” Mitsuki happily replies.

“Ouu, sounds good! Hello Uncle,” Izuku greets as they enter the dining room

“Ah, hello boys. Just finished setting up the table if everyone's hungry and ready for food.”
Masaru responds with.

The four of them all settled around the dining table and gave thanks for the meal before they
began to dig in their meals before them. They carried on normal conversation catching up
with one another, it sounded like the Bakugou’s fashion company is doing well. Eventually,
Mitsuki made their way back around to the topic of UA which is how they ended up at their
current conversation topic.

“Turned out they had been following me all the way down to when I got Izu, they shouted for
me once I left the parlor. I understand they wanted to know why I’m not hanging out with
them as much but that doesn’t give them the right to follow me around. That just pisses me
off and I thought they were gonna be pretty chill people…” Katsuki explains.

“Hmm…” Masaru started out “Well that certainly was disrespectful what they did and they
are going to have to earn back some trust from you after that but I think now you should
clarify things for them on respecting your boundaries. Explain to them what they did was
wrong and that they shouldn’t try it again, see what their actions show you after that.”
Masaru advises.

Katsuki picks at his food a bit with his chopstick while giving a grunt before looking up to
show he is giving him his attention, “guess your right..” Katsuki concludes.

“Since I’ve met them now, we could start having them over sometimes and maybe that would
help them not possibly feel like you're avoiding them or something?” Izuku queries.

Katsuki replies “I don’t know, we wouldn’t get to have much alone time together if that’s the
case and most of our alone time was busy…”

“True… but we will see what we can do. It can just depend on how that day is going and how
we feel if we have them over then. Besides just because we invite them that doesn’t mean
they will always be up for hanging out or even want to.” Izuku says.

Katsuki sighs “Guess your right…” he says.

“Also at least not all of them were trying to follow, some of them admittedly was just tagging
along, not that that excuses that they didn’t stop the rest. That Shinsou guy didn’t seem
interested in what was going on except for speaking to Denks." Izuku says then "Oh,” Izuku
turns directly to Katsuki with a curious face “I was wondering are those two a thing? Cause if
not they should be.” Izuku deadpans at the end.

Katsuki couldn’t help a small snicker because Izuku would mention things at the most
random times sometimes. “Your right and I bet Eye Bags was genuinely only there for
Pikachu cause yeah they’re a thing,” he responds.

The conversations seemed to pan out once more after that until Masaru inquired Izuku about
the latest thing that involved one of his more academic hobbies. “Oh yeah Izuku, how’s the
book coming along?”

That caught Izuku’s sparkling eyes' attention, “It’s going great Uncle! I should be finished
with this one by the end of the month!” he happily explains.

“What is this book going over again?” Mitsuki asked.


“This one’s on the overall relative quirk theory” Katsuki answers for Izuku.

“Oh, sounds very interesting.” Mitsuki responds with.

Izuku laughed a little at that “It’s okay auntie, your thing is fashion not quirk analysis. I know
this stuff does genuinely seem interesting to you but it also simply bores you.” he says.

“Sorry Izuku sweeties, my brain doesn’t seem hard-wired to comprehend your quirk analysis
stuff,” Mitsuki says with a sheepish smile “and you have written how many books now and
over what?” she questions.

“Let’s see…” Izuku had to think a moment “This when is over the quirk theory and last was
over the ‘how to’ general and in-depth quirk analysis, plenty are individual quirk analysis of
past heroes, vigilantes, and villains quirks being analyzed, and some different books on the
quirkless…” Izuku was getting into the start of a ramble.

“He’s published thirty-two, making this his thirty-third book,” Katsuki answers for him.

“Yeah!” Izuku responds giving Katsuki a smile as thanks for stopping the start of his ramble.
Izuku had been writing in his own time on various quirk-related topics, he ended up trying to
make a website for his quirk analysis when he was around fifteen-sixteen trying to see if he
anyone would be interested in it. It very much seemed like a flop of an attempt but after a few
weeks, Izuku got contacted by a book publisher that had worked with authors who printed
scientific-related books and was interested in Izuku making his analysis into a book to
publish, believing that his analysis is good enough to be publicly shared and used. It certainly
wasn’t what Izuku was expecting to happen but after that, it stuck around that he would work
on these books when it came to him.

After this topic, conversations once again seemed to bounce around until it was almost two.
The boys gathered themselves and the Bakugou’s gave their farewells to them, but not before
Mitsuki forced some money on the couple. They would joke sometimes about her being a
mind reader giving them money most often on the day of them planning to get groceries.

The grocery trip was going well, and they were almost done checking around for anything
they might want or need that they didn’t put on their list when they heard someone call out
for one of them, “Bakugou!” they turned around to see two people Izuku had already met but
the one wasn’t someone Izuku had met.

“What the hell Dunce-Face! Why the hell are you shouting my name?” Katsuki shouts at a
lower volume and then asks.

The three walks up to the couple all the way as Kaminari sheepishly rubs the back of his neck
and shrugs in one motion saying “Sorry Bakubro, thought I might end up losing you if I
didn’t catch your attention now.” Denki responds.

Katsuki gives him a good look with annoyance before sighing with a groan “Whatever,
you’ve stopped me, now what?” he asks.
“Oh right! Even if it wasn’t our plan or why we tagged along Shinsou and I wanted to
apologize to both you and Izubro about us following you around. It wasn’t cool of us.”
Kaminari explains.

“We also should have stopped things before they had started, told them to talk to you about
how they felt rather than following you around.” Hitoshi elaborates.
“Wait, what did you idiots do that your apologizing mister explosions over here about that?”
the two's third party inquired.

“Umm… well Kiri and Mina kinda convinced us and some others to follow where Bakubro
goes after school. I wasn’t really trying to follow him I was only going along because others
were down. Toshi was just there with me so he had even less to do with it.” Denki explains to
their third party who in response to the explanations smacks Denki upside his head.

“Literal dumbass…” the third party groaned pulling her hand over her face before it went to a
sudden realization “Oh yeah,” she turned to give Izuku her attention “Sorry I hadn’t
introduced myself, my name is Kyoka Jiro.” she introduces herself.

“Oh right your earphones!” Izuku immediately responds before covering his mouth in
embarrassment “Sorry, Kat usually uses nicknames so those have been committed to memory
more than people's actual names.”

Jiro was intrigued and confused with this new person before her, he was hanging around
Bakugou and she wasn’t quite sure what that meant about him. Either way, “It’s okay, no
worries” is how she responds to this.

The interaction getts then brushed off with replied smiles and Izuku then gives the blonde and
purple harried couple his attention as he says “And we appreciate the apology Denks and
Shinsou.”

Katsuki crosses his arms before speaking “Not gonna give some lie and pretend what yall did
was alright because it wasn’t, but you’ve recognized that at least so I accept the apology”
Katsuki’s posture remained till he let out a sigh and let his arms drop “Look it’s as eyebags
said, should have spoken to me about it instead of invading my privacy. But I’ve also gotten
to know you two well enough to know that neither of you tagged along thinking about doing
something hurtful so just don’t do it again and let’s move on.” he finally concludes for them.

Kaminari was a bit deadpanned in expression but turned it to a smile once Katsuki finished
talking “Alright sweet! We won’t do it again, and thank you for accepting our apology!”
Denki says then looks over to Shinsou.

Shinsou gives a nod saying “What he said” before changing topics “So what are you two
doing anyway, I mean besides getting groceries.” Shinsou asks.

“Oh, that is it. Just grocery shopping. You three?” Izuku answers as the group begin walking
down aisles as they talk.

“Same, we got picked to go grocery shopping for the shared kitchen.” Kaminari groans in
response.
“Quit acting like a baby about it Denki,” Jiro says as she rolls her eyes.

“Yeah yeah..” Denki replies, “So,” he turns attention back to Izuku and Katsuki “What are
you guys doing after getting groceries?” he asks.

“None of your business Sparky,” Katsuki answers, earning him a flick to the forehead by
Izuku.

“He’s allowed to ask, if you don’t want to give someone the answer there's a better way to
respond.” Izuku tells Katsuki before turning to the other three who are giving him a look like
he just did something stupid, it was just staring for a few seconds before Izuku finally said
“What?”

“How did you not just die?” Kaminari deadpans.

“Again. What?” Izuku deadpans right back.

“He means how did you just hit and reprimand Bakugou without him trying to blow up your
face.” Jiro elaborates.

“Oh” Izuku’s face seemed to turn to one of realization and understanding, “Let’s just say I
have some exceptions and ways to not get blown up?” he tries. The three seem to mostly
accept the answer and Izuku continues on with walking and the others carry on then as well.
“Oh, and after here we will have to go home to put groceries up but after that, we were
thinking we’d go to this skate park I like to go to because it’s been longer than usual since
we've gone skating,” Izuku answers as a later response.

“Oh hey would we be able to join!” Kaminari asks excitedly.

“Not me, after we take these back to the dorm I have to go visit my parent's music store and
help with some things.” Jiro intervenes before an answer is given.

“Okay, I will definitely have to get into a conversation about this music store your parents
own Jiro..” Izuku says.

“Okay…” Jiro respons a bit confused.

“And yeah, you two can come to join us. I’ll get your numbers from Kat and text you where
the skate park I go to is. It’s an older one that people don’t tend to go to anymore.” Izuku
says.

“Okay sweet!” Kaminari replies.

After that it wasn’t much longer than either group was at the store as they got their things
paid for, made it to their vehicles, and went their separate ways with Katsuki and Izuku going
to their apartment and the other three going to the UA Heights Alliengce dorms. Izuku got
Hitoshi and Kaminari’s numbers from Katsuki saving them to his contacts before making a
group chat that is with the four of them, Izuku sends a test text message in the group chat for
Denki and Shinsou to know that it’s Izuku’s number.
“Oi, why make a group chat with us four in it? Is there really a reason to?” Katsui asks after
receiving to group text. All Izuku did was shrug his shoulders and turn away from Katsuki as
he sent the skate parks location in the group chat before returning to help Katsuki put away
groceries.

After Kaminari, Shinsou, and Jiro finished putting groceries up Jiro did as she said and left to
her parent's music store while Kaminari and Shinsou went to their dorms to get changed
apporiopietly for skating as well as grabbing their own skateboards. When going through the
commons they had a few people like Mina, Kirishima, Iida, and Hagakure asking where they
were off too and just told them ‘to skate with Bakubro and Izubro’ which prompted some
confused looks from a few before they left but the ignored them.

When Kaminari and Shinsou arrived at the skate park Izuku and Katsuki are already there
and Denki and Toshi could see what Izuku meant about the skate park not being frequented
anymore as it was hidden by surrounding trees and you have to take a certain trail to get to
where they were.

Izuku and Katsuki weren’t in the car they had seen Katsuki drive to school all the time and
them go to when at the grocery store but instead it was a black truck that had the tailgate
down. What Kaminari and Shinsou were about to learn about the bed of this truck was they
had secured on it foam cushion and stuffing hidden under a few comforters stitched up and
secured as well as glued on as permanently as they could get it and have a few pillows places
throughout. There was a camper topper that they would either have on or off depending on
the weather but since it wasn’t cold out or raining they left it off. They had their stoner box
out as well as a sturdy tray before him for use of rolling, placing ashtray on it, placing bong,
pipe, or dab rig on it, or other things that need a flat surface to rest on.

They approached the truck and after Kat told them to get on and sit in the bed of the truck
that’s where they learned it’s cushioned. They stayed back there as Izuku rolled them each an
individual joint to smoke, once he finished rolling them they made way off the truck, and the
four each lit their joint as they smoked while they skated around.

This was the first time Kaminari and Shinsou had seen Katsuki enjoying himself so much,
they had witnessed that Katsuki would laugh a bit and even smile with the addition of Izuku
around but they were gaming so both of them seemed to have a competitive side that came
out and balanced each other while it seemed skating was a different comfort that also
balanced each other out. It was also another occurrence of seeing Katsuki more relaxed and
less angry than they typically see at school.

With so many glances catching Katsuki and Izuku smiling at each other and even a few times
they were holding hands, Shinsou had to quell some curiosity. Shinsou could come off quite
blunt in times of curiosity but either way “I was wondering, are you two dating?” was what
he asked the two boys who then almost tripped but Katsuki kept Izuku from doing so. “I just
mean, you don’t act overly affectionate or something there’s just little things you two do that
subtly say you're in a relationship but then yall also seem to want to go bone each other so
I’m thinking you two are in a relationship or both cluelessly into each other.” he deadpans
monotone the whole time.
“Uh, well.” Izuku had started out before looking to Katsuki for confirmation on what to do,
and it seemed he got it as he turned back to Kaminari and Shinsou. “Yeah we're in a
relationship, we're not exactly keeping it a secret but were also not advertising it. We’ve had
unwanted attention on our relationship before so unless it seems like more trouble than worth
unless you clarify to someone were together then we’d appreciate you just not mentioning it.”
Izuku explains.

“Nah, you're okay. Happy for yall, and a little glad my guess was correct. Also, don’t worry,
my dad isn’t a big fan of Denks so that wasn’t public knowledge that we are together at first
either.” Shinsou responds.

Izuku gives a smile at that “Thanks Shinsou.” and after that they carried on some more
smoking as they skated until they got tired enough that they wanted to leave, to which Izuku
and Katsuki gave the offer of letting Shinsou and Denki sleepover since their couch pulled
out into a bed. The couple happily accepted and then got permission from Aizawa for them to
be off campus tonight.

They arrived back at Katsuki and Izuku’s apartment after stopping by the dorms for Kaminari
and Shinsou to get overnight bags and all took themselves a shower and then relaxed with a
TV show and some of Izuku’s special stem tea while they all were picking wax to hit dabs
until they all got tired enough to attempt sleeping.
Back At The Dorms
Chapter Summary

The next day when they wake up, Izuku will have to go to work later in the afternoon
and since it's Sunday Katsuki, Denki, and Hitoshi have to return to the dorms.

Chapter Notes
See the end of the chapter for notes

The next day, Katsuki woke up around eight as usual on the weekends except this time left
Izuku to sleep in the bed. Katsuki entered the Kitchen that was open to the living room
ignoring the sleeping guest as he went to start breakfast for them all.

By the time Katsuki was almost finished and about to plate there breakfast he hears a groan
behind him, turning around he sees Denki rising up and rubbing his eyes. After Kaminari
satisfied rubbing his eyes he turned to see Katsuki staring at him, “Oh Good Morning
Bakugou.” he says with a tired morning voice followed by a yawn.

“Morning Sparky.” Katsuki responds returning to what he was doing. Denki was starting to
get off the bed as Katsuki spoke again “Suprised your up already but since you are go ahead
and wake your boyfriend up while I put breakfast on plates and then I’ll go wake up Deku.”

Denki raised an eyebrow at the end “Deku?” he asked, he was sure that meant useless.

“Izuku.” Katsuki clarified.

“Uhh…” Denki hesitated “doesn’t that mean useles?” he questions.

Katsuki groans after finishing set up the last plate etting it on the table “Yes, but I don’t mean
it like that anymore, but don’t start calling him that and I mean it.” he says finalizing the
topic.

“Alright, gotcha.” Denki responds with two thumbs watching as Katsuki starts to walk away
to he assumes Katsuki and Izuku’s bedroom so he goes to wake up his sleeping boyfriend.
First he starts shaking Hitoshi lightly not trying to startle him awake “Babe, wake up~” he
says sing-song. “Come on there’s coffee~” with addition Denki sees two eyelids starting to
twitch as he thinks ‘got ya’ while smirking a bit.

Hitoshi groans a bit rejecting the idea of waking up before finally rising and then Denki holds
a hand out to aid Shinso in standing up which he snickers at a bit but attcepts as he stands up
and the two walk towards the kitchen. “You mentioned coffee?” he asks in a dry morning
voice.
Denki of course laughs at that, “I don’t actually know if Bakugou has coffee made but I know
he has a coffee pot to make some and Bakugou made breakfast.” he explains.
Hitoshi stops walking “So you lied to me?” he deadpans.

“Uhhh…” Denki freezes while his brain races for a response.

“Kami, Denks, Babe, calm down. I’m messing with you.” he explains with an eyebrow
raised.

Denki lets out a breath neither of them knew he was holding “Oh shit, okay that’s cool” and
with that he laughs in response as they both take a seat.

It almost seemed simultaneous when they sat down they suddenly heard “KATSUKI
BAKUGOU!” shouted and they both look at another with wide eyed confusion and shock.

Seemed the explanation was on it’s way when Katsuki came barreling into the kitchen and
living room with what had to be a genuine smile and grin while he laughed. Katsuki rushed to
the kitchen and grabbed two spatulas when in came a running face soaked Izuku screaming at
Katsuki.

“WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU I’M NOT THAT HARD TO WAKE UP!”
Izuku screams as he threw a what looked to be one of Katsuki’s textbooks at Katsuki’s head
who barley dodged it.

“Woah now Zuku, come on, we have guest. We don’t wanna scare them off now do we?”
Katsuki reasons with as if he hadn’t just went into there room and dumped water on Izuku’s
face when he couldn’t wake him up.

“That’s funny coming from you man.” Shinsou couldn’t help but comment. He wasn’t
expecting this scene but he found it humorous.

It seemed neither side of the fighting couple heard Shinsous comment as Izuku went grabbed
one of the throw pillows using it for what its name suggest, throwing. This time Izuku hit his
mark with the pillow hitting Katsuki right in the face, “What if next time I dump freezing
cold water on your head when your sound asleep!” Izuku shouts.

“Hey if you ever managed to wake up before me and for some reason I don’t wake up after a
few tries then fucking go for it!” Katsuki responds.

“I will you asshole.” Izuku says with the last of his anger in his face dissipating with a sigh.
“Sorry about that, I doubted it was appreciated especially so early in the morning.” Izuku
says facing Kaminari and Shinsou.

“Hey man it’s alright, seriously.” Denki insist.

“It was actually pretty funny watching Bakugou act so childish.” Hitoshi says.

Izuku snorts a bit at that while Katsuki shouts “Hey I do not act childish!” in disagreement.
Izuku decides to go ahead and move on from things saying “Whatever, let’s just get to
breakfast before it’s to cold. Who want’s what to drink we have juices, herbal teas, coffee–”
“Coffee. Black, please.” Hitoshi accidently inturepts.

“Alrighty then, one black coffee for Shinsou. What about you Denks?” Izuku asks.

“Bakugou’s mentioned some kind of special tea you make, what’s that?” Denki asks.

“Oh, well I take a herbal tea of my choice even making my own mixture of herbs for teas and
I make it with weed stems as well. Since it’s the mornings I make it with either lady grey or
earl grey, or even some other black teas as well.” Izuku explains. “Would you like to try
some? I’m going to make some for Kacchan and I.” Izuku asks.
“Yeah I’d like to try that!” Denki answers.

Hitoshi get’s his coffee made by Katsuki which makes Shinsou surprised by how good the
black coffee is and Denki enjoys the lady grey stem tea that Izuku makes while they all enjoy
the delicious breakfast courtesy of Katsuki. They hanged out longer gaming on Katsuki and
Izuku’s switch and at one point had a smoke session before it got to almost noon.

Since it was Sunday, Katsuki and there guest would have to go back to the dorms and Izuku
had to go into work at one thirty. Katsuki made sure he got his smoke supply and anything
else he would need over the week and Shinsou and Kaminari got there things together for
Katsuki to drive them all back to the dorms.
Shinsou and Kaminari typically will go around in Shinsous car since he enjoys driving but
they left his car at the dorms since Katsuki could drive them back to the dorms when he
would have to return.

So the three UA university students made there way back to there dorms while Izuku made
his way to work at the Black Gallary Ink and Piercers.
When Shinsou, Kaminari, and Bakugou all entered the common room they honestly hadn’t
expected to have Iida and Uraraka right in there faces as soon as they returned, sure they
expected it at one point but not as soon as they walked into the building.

“Where were you Shinsou-kun and Kaminari-kun? And Bakugou-kun, did Aizawa-sensei
know you were staying the whole weekend over there?” Iida queries, emphasizing the word
whole pointedly at Katsuki.

Katsuki’s face immediatly turned to annoyance, which upsetted Denki and Hitoshi because
Katsuki had just been in a great mood. “Chill out four-eyes! First off Pikachu and Eye bags
stayed over at my apartment and second off Sensei knew I was staying the whole weekend
there as well as the two of them staying over last night, now fuck off!” and with that seeming
to sum things up Iida backed off as well as Uraraka without even getting a word in. Katsuki
started to storm off before turning around to say “You two coming or just gonna stand there
like idiots?” directly to Shinsou and Kaminari who were standing there absent mindedly.

“Oh! We’re coming!” Denki responds locking his arms with Hitoshi as he pulls him along
with him to follow Katsuki. Both Kaminari and Shinsou’s rooms were on the way to
Katsuki’s so they both dropped there things off in there room and continued following
Katsuki along to his room.
After entering his room, the two now could see why Katsuki didn’t let people into his dorm
room. Not that Katsuki’s room was embarrassing, they thought it looked pretty cool. The
walls were a cool grey and there were some various band, game, and hero posters on the
walls as well as a few skateboards and an electric guitar. In the corner was his bed with a bed
frame that had shelves at the head board and drawers under the bed. In front of his bed there
was workout equipment laid out for Katsuki’s use. In the corner next to the bed was a drum
set, next over was a tv stand with a larger TV that has a gaming system hooked up to it and
next to that is a desk with a few computer monitors and a black and orange gamer chair.
Katsuki appered to have some school work organized on the desk as well. All around the
border of the room are LED lights, the one on he corners are on orange and the one around
the crown is green.

None of that would of been embarrassing, they were sure they rest would find Katsuki’s room
really cool. Then they saw Katsuki corkboard and they saw why people weren’t let into his
room, the board was filled with pictures of Katsuki and Izuku. Some of them they were
kissing in so no wonder Katsuki wasn’t letting people into his room when he had those on his
wall. Shinsou and Kaminari thought that was surprisingly sweet that Katsuki had so many
pictures of him and his boyfriend pinned up.

The three ended up playing some games on Katsuki’s gamin system while passing around a
dab pen and they were honestly all in there own little world together. Shinsou and Kaminari
wondered if things were going to be a bit off without Izuku around if they hanged out with
Katsuki but things were going really well. They all fell into casual conversation that had a
few random outburst here an as commentary on the games they were playing while
conversing.

“Eyebags bring that pen up for me and hold it since your out of the match now.” Katsuki says
maintaining eye contact on the TV as he attempts to have his character draw in Denki’s
character.

If someone told Hitoshi he would comply to that a few hours ago he would of said ‘fuck no’
but now here he is, complying with it, he couldn’t help wonder if Katsuki and him were
actually friends now, “I’m not your servant.” he deadpans as if he didn’t just do what Katsuki
asked.

Katsuki snickered at that “But you did it anyways” he teases– wait Katsuki teases. “I know
dude, just hands occupied at the moment. I’d help ya take a hit if your hands were occupied
too insomniac.”

Shinsou was surprised at that even more than the friendly tease, he decides it’s best not to
make a deal of it and carry on with a soft smile knowing Katsuki can’t turn to look at him
responds “cause were friends?” he asks.

Katsuki suddenly pauses the gaming catching Kaminaris attention now who was to focused
on the game to even hear there conversation, “Hey man! What the hell!” Kaminari shouts
looking over to see Shinsou and Katsuki looking at one another, “Uh..” Katsuki looks a bit
offended and Shinsou looks unsure and a bit surprised.
“No shit were fucking friends. I wouldn’t let you two dumbasses sleep over if we weren’t”
with that response suficialy clarifying things in Katsuki’s opinion he swiftly turns around and
resumses the game.

“Oh shit!” Kaminari mumbles out shuffling back into gamin mode.

Shinsous still just a bit shocked, he was actually making friends, Hitoshi still wasn’t paying
much mind being a bit shocked and Katsuki added on “Izuku is also your friend if you
couldn’t tell.” which he couldn’t. He realized it would be quite weird for someone to allow
people that aren’t your friends to sleep over at your place but he also could tell Izuku was a
really nice person so he didn’t want to come to any conclusion really. Having clarification felt
nice and more reassuring.

The night carried on as the three continued to game and smoke while back in the common
room everyone else was either helping make dinner in the kitchen or waiting for it while
watching TV in the living room connected to the kitchen. Jiro had gone upstairs to tell the
Katsuki, Denki, and Hitoshi about them starting to prepare dinner which was done only
through the door and they said to send a text to one of them when it was ready.

In the living room there was Kirishima, Mina, Shoto, Sero, Momo, Jiro, Ochaco, Iida,
Hagakure, and Tokoyami while helping in the kitchen was Aoyoma, Tsuyu, Ojiro, Koda,
Sato, and Shoji. Conversations seemed normal until Toru perked up at what to her sounded
like gossip to learn.

“I mean he did seem quite different when he did, like he seemed a lot more mad at us then he
gave off but at his apartment after was high he didn’t seem that angry anymore.” Mina
quietly angrued.

“Yeah but it’s still smoke in his lungs, that doesn’t sound healthy Mina.” Kirishima argues
back.

“Your just jealous cause Bakugou’s living with a hot guy that isn’t you.” Mina retorts.

“Now that’s low Mina..” Kirishima eyes lowered a bit “I’m just worried about Bakubro’s
health and safety. He said he’s known him since diapers but what if there was a gap of time
were they didn’t talk and he got into some really bad stuff!” he tries to argue.

“Kiri… babe… look I’m curious too about him but there had been nothing to give us the
impression that he’s a bad guy. Let’s get to know him some more first.” Mina tries.

“Ohhh, that sounds like some really hot tea” Hagakure interupts stretching out the word
‘really’ as she grins. “What’s this about Bakugou living with some hottie? There was also
mention of getting high? You said something about smoking so I’m assuming smoking weed
is what the reference was to but who’s the hottie and why might he be a bad guy for Bakugou
to live with?” she asks.

Except, Hagakure wasn’t quite. For a girl with an invisibility quirk, she could be very
noticeable when she didn’t realize it sometimes. As well as loud without realizing it because
the rest of the class heard what Toru said to Mina drawing their attention to the conversation.
“Well you guys know how Bakugou doesn’t really spend time with his own squad much even
in free time and apparently he doesn’t even stay at the dorms all the time on the weekend–”
that’s how Mina starts as she explains her and some others following Katsuki only to see him
enter a tattoo parlor and walk back with someone they eventually learned is Katsuki’s
roommate. She then expands that they learned Katsuki smokes and even has a medical card
to smoke it for a few things like OCD and anxiety. She also elaborates on this softer side of
Katsuki they witnessed around his friend they had never met.

Based on the physical description of Izuku they all seemed unopinionated unless they that it
was an attractive quality until the mention of all the piercings and tattoos he had which
garnered mixed responses. The revelation of Katsuki smoking also got mixed responses but
overall, Mina now had the rest of class 1-A curious about this Izuku Midoriya.

Not So Fun Supper but, The Smoke Sesh After was Chill
Chapter Summary

When Katsuki, Hitoshi, and Denki go down for supper, it didn’t go the greatest. Some
perspectives on people being curious and if their curiosity is making them go out of line.
Sero and Todoroki are just trying to vibe honestly, Sero also remembers a question he
meant to ask when he met Izuku and gets the chance to ask Katsuki it.

When Katsuki, Hitoshi, and Denki came into the commons room the atmosphere was weird,
to say the least. Everyone seemed to share giving glances over to Katsuki like there trying to
figure something out. Katsuki tried ignoring it and it was working until he was halfway done
with his meal and couldn’t deal with the side glances anymore.

“Alright someone spit it the fuck out what the weird glances are about! If you got something
to say, say it!” Katsuki shouts annoyed.

While almost the whole of class 1-A was curious, not all were curious enough to bother
Katsuki about it or they just weren’t going to quell the curiosity. People like Mezo Shoji, Koji
Koda, Rikido Sato, Mashiro Ojiro, and Fumikage Tokoyami wondered who this person is that
Bakugou lived with and it was an interesting discovery of Katsuki’s OCD and anxiety and
that he smoked, especially interesting for Tokoyami since he enjoyed partaking. Despite
wondering a bit about this person they had no plans on pushing the discovery of more things,
they honestly didn’t care enough. Not that they don’t care for Katsuki’s wellbeing and such
but that they just weren’t the types to go digging around.

For others like Shoto Todoroki, Hanta Sero, Tsuyu Asui, Kyoka Jiro, and Momo Yaoyorozu
they also wondered about this Izuku Midoriya that Katsuki lived with. Momo hadn’t met him
and Kyoka barely interacted with him so they were more curious than the other three but
figured Katsuki would tell them if there was something they needed to know. Shoto, Hanta,
and Tsuyu have at least already met this Izuku Midoriya so they already got first impressions
of him and while they were admittedly curious about things between Katsuki and this new
person they also figured Katsuki would tell them if there was something they needed to
know, so they had no intentions of crossing any boundaries.

The rest of the classmates Toru Hagakura, Yuga Aoyoma, Mina Ashido, Eijiro Kirishima,
Ochaco Uraraka, and Tenya Iida were the more curious people in the class. When Toru, Yuga,
and Mina were together all they could talk about was trending things online and the most
recent ‘tea’ going around. With Mina and Eijiro pretty much always hanging out together, he
was almost always there right alongside them catching up on this ‘tea’ and even giving his
own from time to time. A good majority of their classmates are also aware of Eijiros crush on
Bakugou, but only Mina seemed to be catching on to Kirishima’s jealousy but she’s too
occupied with the new person that is Izuku. Ochaco and Tenya were the obliviously into each
other duo that often would be around their gossiping group in effort of reeling things in,
especially Tenya trying to keep things under control. Except whether he admits it or not,
Tenya gets just as curious about this ‘tea’ as Mina does but it’s covered by the guise of
‘making sure everyone’s safe and following rules’ and Uraraka doesn’t deny her interest in
drama and ‘tea’ but she’s typically wanting to tag along with Iida. While the rest of the
classmates seemed to have no intentions of crossing the boundaries, things weren’t so sure
about Toru, Yuga, Mina, Eijio, Ochaco, and Tenya.

After Katsuki shouted, anyone trying to avoid giving glances or just wasn’t paying any mind
in the first place was now looking over at Katsuki who was seething waiting for a response,
“Well?” he asks with more attitude.

“We heard you live with this hottie you’ve never mentioned before! Tell us about him!” Toru
perks up finally giving Katsuki a response but obviously not reading his mood.

Katsuki’s eyebrow twitched, “You guys are staring at me because you have questions about
my roommate?” he deadpans with eyes closed while an eyebrow still twitches and his hand
closes harder into a fist.

“Um… yes?” Toru answers unsure.

Katsuki tsked at that as his eyes opened again and he pushed his chair back and picked up his
plate as he stands up “If I wanted to tell you guys things about him I would have already,
otherwise fuck off, I’m going to finish eating in my room.” and with that Katsuki took his
food and himself upstairs to his room.

“Uhmm..” Denki started out after Katsuki left the commons “Toshi and I are gonna finish up
together in one of our rooms-” he says to the table then turning to Shinsou sitting next to him
tugging on his sleeve “Come on” he says quietly to which Shinsou nods a yes.

It wasn’t until after Denki and Hitoshi left the commons that another person spoke up, “What
exactly did I say wrong?” Toru asks her classmates.

“Well you guys did keep giving him looks and then he finds out it’s because you want to
question him on his roommate. I think I would be annoyed about it to because there’s a better
way to have approached that.” Sero supplies her.

“Yeah but I didn’t even get a question in, and it’s Bakugou! I didn’t want him to immediately
explode my face when I asked a question!” Toru defends.

“Mon âme, he could have been gentler to Hagakure as well..” Aoyoma adds on.

Sero has a look of ‘what are you not getting’ as he begins speaking “You guys don’t give
Bakubro enough credit. The first thing was it would have gone smoother if you guys didn’t
keep giving him glances and instead just mentioned something when he walked in. The
second thing was how you said that you want someone questioning you about your and I
quote ‘hottie’ roommate? Cause I wouldn’t. If they had questions about someone I lived with
then they could ask something like ‘Hey man, is it good living with this roommate of yours?’
or something like that.” he explains.
Sero didn’t get a response to that as it seemed Toru opted on ignoring it he could only assume
because she turned to Mina and just asked “You think we could get him to answer some
questions tomorrow?”

“Totally! We just have to figure out how to get him to talk about him or get him to invite him
to the dorms!” Mina exclaims.

“I’m still not sure about this guy so he should come here that way if something happens we
are on our own turf,” Kirishima adds on.

“I do agree that since we hardly know this person it is best to invite them to our
accommodated dorms as to attest the type of person this Midoriya is.” Tenya states.

Sero and Shoto exchanged looks with one another that just read annoyance so without any
real words as if the two had just spoken telepathically they stood up together and took their
empty plates to the sink as they then took themselves out of the commons just to get away
from whatever problems were to likely come.

Back with Katsuki, not even a minute after getting to his room, there's a small knock at his
door which he shouts “Who the fuck is it!” he asks.

“Your favorite pokemon and insomniac!” Denki shouts back in response.

Katsuki’s glad there's a door in the way or they would see his visible smile of amusement at
that before he goes over and opens the door for the two to enter. Shinsou just walks to the bed
plopping onto it as Denki sits both his plate and Shinsous down on the nightstand.

“Finish eating before you nap,” Denki says earning a grunt in response before Shinsou
complies by sitting up.

The three start finishing up their supper together in Katsuki’s room, the couple could tell that
Katsuki’s mood was a bit ruined by that interaction. “You alright Kat?” Denki asks looking at
Katsuki.

Katsuki gives Denki a look at hearing the nickname and the expression is held as Katsuki
responds “Yeah just annoyed with lack of human decency and respect of boundaries from the
others.” before going back to a neutral expression.

Denki wasn’t trying to visibly give away the concern of his words but he was glad that trying
to call Katsuki ‘Kat’ didn’t backfire. “That’s understandable that you’d be annoyed right now.
I really sorry this is going on man.” Kaminari tells him.

Katsuki looks up at Kaminari again saying “Why are you sorry? You didn’t have the bright
idea to follow me on my day off and invade my privacy. After learning I lived with someone
and we ran into each other you were just going like 'what up' it wasn’t like you were trying to
interrogate Izuku or me.”

“Oh.” Kaminari says “Yeah but still I feel bad you having to deal with it.” he adds on.
“Oh, my fucking word your like Izu in that area. Look it’s good to have empathy for others
but don’t let yourself get down for something not within your control and not your doing.”
Katsuki tells him.

Kaminari and Shinsou just keep learning things about who Katuki really is that keep
surprising them, not that they thought he was a bad person but that they hadn’t expected the
more in-depth there is to Katsuki. “Sounds like something a therapist would say” Shinsou
retorts.

“Yeah well, they ain’t all shit. Maybe it would do you two some good yourselves seeing a
therapist.” Katsuki tells them.

And oh did that give them a realization, Katsuki had definitely been in therapy before. Not
that they saw that as a bad thing but that to them it added more to Katsuki’s character as
someone striving to be better especially better than what people that of him as with his often
brash personality.

They eventually finished eating and Katsuki grabbed all the plates heading to put their dishes
in the sink. It seemed people were finishing up their food and filing out of the kitchen when
he came so he wasn’t paid much mind which he secretly appreciated. Katsuki returned to his
room to a sleeping Shinsou that Denki’s learning on as he started setting up a game for him
and Katsuki to play.

They stayed playing for some time before Hitsohi woke up to an argument about a certain
move that a character has when Denki’s phone got a notification. Kaminari went to reach
over for his phone laying beside Shinsou to see Hitoshi waking up “hi sleepy head” he says
carrying on to grab his phone and check his notification. It was a text from Sero, he relayed it
to Katsuki and Hitoshi saying “Hey guys Sero and Todobro asked if we wanted to smoke
with them.” he tells them.

“Sure, tell Soy Sauce Face I’ll match him if they come to my dorm. I don’t feel like leaving
the room.” Katsuki tells him as he gets up to get his stoner box out and set up to start packing
a bowl in his bong and setting up his incenses and candles for the smell and grabbing a
blanket for him to place at the crack at the bottom of the door while Kaminari sends a text
response to Sero.

“What about these?” Shinsou asks pointing at the corkboard filled with pictures of Katsuki
and Izuku.

Katsuki looks over to see what Shinsou points at and he thinks a moment, he walks over and
just simply flips the board around so that way the pictures were facing the wall “There both
introverts so even if they saw I don’t think they would go around gossiping and shit telling
others my business.” he says.

“Todobro I see as an introvert but I think Sero is more extroverted though, right?” Denki
queries.

“Denki you know how you act like the biggest extrovert there is out there but you internalize
the majority of things?” Shinsou asks him.
“Yeah, I get it’s contradictory but uh- yeah,” Denki responds with.

“Soy Sauce Face is more like an ambivert so he’s got both introverted and extroverted
qualities, like an outgoing introvert.” Katsuki supplies.

“Oh,” Denki says and as if they were given a cue there's a light knock on Katsuki’s door.
Katsuki asked who it was and it of course was Todoroki and Sero who came in being met
with the surprise that is how chill Katsuki’s room is.

“Woah man, your rooms really cool!” Sero expresses.

“I agree. The lights seem to give a different atmosphere to the room that’s nice.” Shoto adds
on.

“Thanks” Katsuki grumbles out.

That caught them all, Katsuki giving thanks, they hadn’t heard thanks from him since they
met him at least not that he recalled. The conversation carried on and Katsuki got the blanket
stuffed at the bottom of the door with a stool next to it with a few candles and incenses going
as well as some other candles and incense through the room going and two aroma diffusers as
well. Katsuki also has his bedroom window cracked up for the smell to escape the room to
outside as well when they get settled with Katsuki turning on a show for them to watch as
they passed around Katsuki’s bond and talked.

Conversations between the five of them were going a steady back and forth when Sero had a
random realization expression across his face when he suddenly went “Oh” catching the other
four's attention. “Bakubro I had meant to ask Midobro when we had met him but then we had
gotten high and I forgot to be honest.” he starts out while rubbing the back of his neck
sheepishly.

“Ask what?” Katsuki asks.

“So I didn’t know if it was just a crazy coincidence in appearance or not but is Izuku a twitch
streamer by the name ‘Broccoli Boi’?” Sero asks.

Izuku and Katsuki were already talking about not walking around as much as they were the
fact that they were dating when it came to their friends, but they still felt a bit refrained from
it being so public. That was because as soon as Izuku has a run-in with people who know him
while he’s out with Katsuki and they could very easily reveal that Katsuki is the off-screen
boyfriend. Izuku would insist that he could barely be considered semi-famous but Katsuki
insists that Izuku is more than semi-famous being recognized usually from his twitch streams
and YouTube videos but had had occasions of people recognizing him as the young author of
many quirk analysis related books.

How they hadn’t been confronted with Izuku being ‘Broccoli Boi’ Katsuki certainly wasn’t
quite sure but Izuku could already tell that none of them knew he was a Twitch streamer
either because they didn’t watch streamers or they just hadn’t happened upon Izuku’s or
gotten interested in it. Although Izuku did wonder if Hanta Sero had watched his streams
before because when they had met there were a few times Sero looked at him as if trying to
figure something out.

Katsuki now had them all four looking at him as he was trying to take a hit and exhale “Yeah
he is, but don’t go around spreading that Broccoli’s real name is Izuku.” he explains.

“I thought he looked familiar!” Sero bursts out, “That means your ‘boom boom boy’ on his
streams right?” Sero asks.

“Yup.” Katsuki gives. “And I’m trusting you guys to not go and gossip about that,” he tells
them with a lot more sternness in his voice.

Sero let the realization set in and nodded, he hadn’t looked over to Shoto whose face
appeared mostly neutral but he was confused about what they were talking about. “Who’s
Broccoli Boy and Boom Boom Boy? Also, what’s a twitch stream?” Shoto asks.

Sero does look at Shoto this time, “Twitch streams are done on a live streaming platform
where the viewers can give live commentation and interact even with the one doing the
stream. Not all but most streamers are gamers so they stream their gaming which is what the
Twitch streamer Broccoli Boi does as well as some other types of streams. Midoriya is
Broccoli Boi and in his streams, there have been many off-camera appearances of Broccoli
Boi’s boyfriend that the chat calls ‘Boom Boom Boy’.” now Sero turns to Katsuki, “That
means you and Midobro are dating right?” he asks for clarification.

Katsuki sighs with a nod “Yeah will you be quiet about it, there is a reason my face has never
been on Izu’s streams, ya know?” he says.

“Don’t worry man, you said you trusted us not to go gossiping about this and we won’t.
What’s talked about during the smoke sesh, stays in the smoke sesh.” Sero promises making
sure he comes off meaningful. “But why haven’t you shown your face on Midoriya’s
stream?” he couldn’t help but ask.

Katsuki couldn’t help letting out an exhale as if preparing before he spoke, “It’s a few
different things actually. It has to do with some shitty people from middle school when I was
a really shitty person myself that weren’t really my friends, we want to avoid unnecessary
shit that could come from then knowing I’m the off-camera boyfriend. Then there’s some
other homophobic asshole we don’t want the attention of, if they knew I’m the off-camera
boyfriend they’d be even more pissed. If that got sorted out we would want to wait till I’m
out of college and I’m a pro so we can afford a more secure living place because no matter
how much Izu denies it he’s getting more famous by the day on his streams and him dating a
Pro Hero is going to get us both even more attention.” he explains and lets out another deep
exhale “I’m not saying Izuku isn’t capable of handling himself but I still worry about his
nerdy ass.” he grunts out at the end.

Hitoshi, Denki, Shoto, and Hanta hadn’t heard such upfront emotions from Katsuki before
admitting that he worries for somebody. They also had the explanation to take in. What did
Katsuki mean by him being a shitty person in the past and these shitty non-friends from
middle school? Why would Katsuki being with Izuku cause a problem with them? Who’s the
homophobic asshole and why would Katsuki being his boyfriend make it worse? They
completely understood the explanation about Izuku’s rise in fame as a Twitch streamer and
Katsuki reaching for Pro Hero statues (Number One Pro Hero to be exact) garnering a lot of
attention. They could only leave Katsuki’s explanation at what it was as they could tell he
was not elaborating further on it.

“Hey dude, I get it.” Hitoshi was the first to speak up after the explanation, “Not one hundred
percent, that’s impossible. But I understand there are things in the way of too many people
publicly knowing you two are together.”

“Yeah, no worries cause no one outside of us and anyone you yourself tells is gonna know.”
Sero assures Katsuki, “right man,” he nudges Shoto who nods and hums in agreement.

Katsuki looks around to see them all agreeing on all that, “I appreciate it.” he tells them.

“No problem!” Sero tells him.

“Of course,” Shoto adds on.

“People barely pay attention to what I say and I could very well forget that Midobro is a
Twitch streamer,” Denki shrugs as he says.

Hitoshi nudges Denki for that comment to which Kaminari responds with a pretend wince
“Shut up, people do listen to you.” Shinsou tells him before turning to Katsuki, “Seriously
though we’re not gonna go around blabbing about this I promise that.” he tells him.

Katsuki nods at that in acceptance.

The night carried on with the smoke session until they all filed out and went to their own
rooms to get sleep for school in the morning.
Their Working on Things and Figuring Some Things Out
Chapter Summary

Back in the past, here's some of what happened following a few weeks after the sludge
incident.

A few weeks after the sludge incident had passed and Katsuki and Izuku were hanging out
again, there were already notable changes. Katsuki’s apparent friends Nagai Tesaki whose
quirk is digit extension and Kemuri Hashiga whose quirk is sharp tooth didn’t follow Katsuki
around anymore like they used to. After the disappearance of their childhood friend Akairo
Tsubasa when they were all only around five years old had already set the grounds in the past
for splitting them up but when they didn’t catch onto stopping tormenting Izuku that’s when
Katsuki stop hanging around them who were the only people other than Izuku that Katsuki
hanged out with.

No matter how he came off to people as outgoing and a leader of the pack Katsuki was
actually more of a loner type who would feel socially awkward and socially anxious
sometimes. He enjoyed his peace and quiet and alone time also being able to have peace and
quiet with the right company. He wasn’t always as angry as his tone of voice suggested,
which he was now working on.

Izuku had also been working on not allowing everyone to walk over him and also standing up
and protecting himself as well as Izuku and Katsuki both working on their insecurities.
Katsuki noticed that Izuku seemed to be gaining some confidence and feeling more
comfortable around Katsuki. Izuku noticed Katsuki refraining from immediate outbursts at
people and instead thinking about how he approaches things instead of reacting to the first
emotion he feels that’s usually anger.

Mitsuki and Masaru were a bit confused at Izuku’s sudden reemergence in their household
but they were too excited and happy that he was visiting again to question it really. That was
until a few weeks into that when Mitsuki was in her mind reprimanding Katsuki for his
attitude and tone but to Katsuki she was just yelling at him doing the exact thing she was
demanding Katsuki not to do. Katsuki likes to think it’s his influence that has helped make
him a bit bolder, and maybe it was, but Izuku had enough of hearing her yell at Katsuki for
doing the same thing she’s doing to him or berating him for not being better and meeting
these expectations shes laid onto him. Izuku had stood up and shouted for Mitsuki to be quiet
who was yelling at Katsuki to be quiet.

That’s when Izuku decided to lay it into Mitsuki and Masaru that they needed to evaluate
their parenting methods and reflect on what their own actions have caused Katsuki. Izuku
wasn’t denying that Katsuki had behavior to improve but that Mitsuki was going about it
wrong if she thought what she was doing was helping him. That’s where Izuku gave them the
idea of going to family therapy, which Masaru agreed that they should look into.

Katsuki wasn’t a big fan of the idea of talking to a therapist, he preferred to just rant to Izuku
and move on from things but after a lot of talks it was sounding like Masaru had convinced
Mitsuki for them to attend family therapy which then Izuku then had to convince Katsuki to
give it a try.

Katsuki didn’t like therapy, it wasn’t all bad but he wasn’t enjoying it. He felt like his mother
was controlling the narrative as always but the therapist was having Mitsuki refrain from
speaking when they weren’t asking her a question or when she was avoiding actually
answering the therapist would reroute her. Katsuki just didn’t know if this was really going to
help in the long run because he could tell his mother didn’t like the therapist interrupting her
even if it was for good reasons that Mitsuki was trying to understand.
It took some more weeks for the Bakugou family to start noticing some changes between
them all. Mitsuki and Katsuki could still have arguments but they weren’t on any harmful
topic and they were starting to resolve themselves and Masaru was intervening more taking
more of a stance on things. Izuku was glad to see things improve at the Bakugou’s household
even if they weren’t improving at his own home which he hoped Katsuki wasn’t picking up
on things cause he didn’t know what kind of route he would take off the possibilities Izuku
thought of.

Turned out Katsuki was getting a good idea of what Izuku meant by that ‘nothing’ when he
asked Izuku to explain why Inko wouldn’t care as he claimed. Katsuki had always thought
Inko was a great, kind, caring, and loving mother that always doted on Izuku. Except now he
wasn’t so sure what kind of person in general she was.

Katsuki at this point had noticed that those lunches Izuku brings to school are made by Izuku,
not Inko as he thought. It also didn’t seem like Inko made Izuku’s suppers or breakfasts.
Katsuki had spent the night over at Izuku’s some but not even a handful of times that they are
over at Izuku’s place is Inko's home. Izuku tells him it’s because Inko’s at work which he
knows is usually the truth but why would Inko’s job have her gone for twenty-four hours
because that’s how long she was gone one-time Katsuki stayed over.

Those few times Katsuki did see Inko at their home their interaction was very short and only
extended to greetings and small talk. Inko was still a registered nurse and picked up multiple
shifts and sometimes got called in to help at other hospitals when understaffed so he
understood that it made since for her to be absent from work but he couldn’t help the feeling
that Izuku was left home alone more than he should be. When he saw how Izuku and Inko
interacted it was very strange.

Inko and Izuku could hold a conversation but to Katsuki they seemed quite monotone with
each other, Inko more than Izuku. It was simple things like addressing when Inko would be
home and her telling Izuku he would have to get groceries and she left money before leaving
for work. It wasn’t like Inko didn’t do anything at all but it was very little from what Katsuki
could see. From what he was learning at therapy he knew that what Inko was doing was
neglectful.
Katsuki eventually confronted Izuku about it to confirm what he already knew, Izuku, of
course, walked around it with “it’s not that bad” and “she’s just busy” which Katsuki could
tell that Izuku even knew he was giving excuses. He did manage to get it out of Izuku after a
while, he learned that being too pushy does you no good but he also had to make sure he was
making it known that Izuku could confine in him.

Katsuki get’s filled in though, when Hisashi left for America to work overseas not long after
Izuku got diagnosed quirkless he wasn’t going for work like Inko told everyone, Hisashi was
leaving them. After that, Inko started doing less and less for Izuku to the point it was a bare
minimum so Izuku could take care of himself and Inko could do as she pleased. Izuku wasn’t
sure but he thinks that Inko blames him for Hisashi leaving them, but he wasn’t that kind of a
man when he even was in their lives. Katsuki tries to point out to Izuku how his living
situation isn’t good for his mental health but Izuku won’t accept the help that would actually
do something only allowing Katsuki to help with his own company and being there.
Getting The New Person Over
Chapter Summary

A few weeks after Izuku met some of class 1-A, Katsuki keeps getting pestered to invite
Izuku over to the dorms and finally gives in to the annoyance, this is just the start of
their night.

Chapter Notes

Sorry chapters tend to be quite short :( I'm trying to give out as much as I can as quickly
as I can to try to finish this before my summer break is up.

See the end of the chapter for more notes

It had been a few week now since the weekend that some of class 1-A meet Izuku and then
the rest later on learned of his existence and Katsuki living with him. Katsuki was getting
annoyed with Mina, Aoyoma, and Hagakura pestering him about having Izuku over at the
dorms one weekend instead of Katsuki going over there.

Kirishima on the other hand was feeling a bit annoyed, as well as hurt, Katsuki hadn’t been
hanging out with him as much. He had mentioned a few times Mina wanting to have
Midoriya over but he tried not to do it to much as to not annoy Katsuki. Except Katsuki’s
only really been hanging with Kaminari, Shinsou, Todoroki, and Sero when it’s outside of
classes and what he assumes is Katsuki going to his apartment. Kirishima didn’t want to be
jealous, he hadn’t even realized that Mina wasn’t completely wrong when calling him jealous
though.

It was the third week after that first meeting Mina had with Izuku that Katsuki finally gave in
and told Mina he would “check” with Izuku about coming to the dorms this weekend, making
sure he emphasized the word check.

He emphasized it hoping that Izuku would tell him he could give an excuse of the two of
them being busy but Katsuki concluded that Izuku wanted to let him suffer because his
response was “Yeah sure I’d be up for staying over there this weekend.” which Katsuki just
groaned at.

When Katsuki told Mina that Izuku agreed he wanted to take one of his explosions to his own
face she had sqelled so loud. He just walked away while she went over to Yuuga and Toru to
what he assumes tell them what he just told her. He thinks he’s right with the yelling he hears
as he continues to walk away.
Later on when Katsuki’s in the commons sitting on the couch as he scrolls on his phone,
there’s also Kaminari, Shinsou, Kirishima, Sero, and Todoroki hanging out around him.
Katsuki wasn’t paying much attention to the conversation because he was texting Izuku while
Izuku was at work before he would go home to get an overnight bag and come over to the
dorms or otherwise Katsuki would have left campus since it’s a Friday. Katsuki’s attention
was drawn out when Kirishima nudged Bakugou for his attention and he catches onto a “right
bro?” asked from Kirishima.

Katsuki finally takes his attention off his phone to look up “what?” he asks.

“Talking about Hanbro and Todobro?” Kirishima says but he see’s Katsuki wasn’t listening
so he explains “We were talking about how surprised everyone was when they told us they
were dating last week?”

“Oh.” Katsuki expresses “It wasn’t anything surprising, Soy Sauce Face wasn’t exactly subtle
about his crush and Icy-Hot got flustered around him all the time. It was honestly a matter of
time when Tape Face would ask him out.” Katsuki says returning to his phone that dinged
with a notification.

“Well either way, we're happy for you guys just didn’t expect it,” Kirishima says with a
laugh.

“Appreciated,” Todorkoi responds.

“So what do we think we're gonna do tonight?” Kirishima asks the group, first looking over
to Katsuki who looked up when feeling eyes on him and he simply shrugged an ‘I don’t
know’ as Kirishima turned back to the others for answers.

“All I know is Midobro and I are definitely planning to go to cloud nine tonight, he told me
he got these moonrocks he made for us to try.” Sero expresses swinging his phone in view
open to a text up showing texts between Izuku and Hanta.

“Depending on what he brings have fun either being stuck on your ass or impulsively
wanting to do random shit.” Katsuki snorts out.

“Oh?” Sero says suggestively “Alright, bet!” Sero expresses.

“So besides gaming, smoking, and doing tattoos and piercings what else does Midoriya
enjoy,” Kirishima asks.

Sero couldn’t help his internal joke of ‘Katsuki’ as an answer to Kirishima’s question that
made him laugh a little out loud causing the others to look at him confused “Sorry, ignore
me.” he tells them.

Katsuki tsked as he rolled his eyes at that “He likes trying different instruments, he’s got how
to play the bass, acoustic, and electric guitar as well as the ukelele down already. He also
likes to incorporate parkour with skateboarding.” Katsuki tells them. “If you don’t watch it
when he’s in the mood for it he might end up drawing on you or giving you an actual tattoo.”
Katsuki says “or maybe a piercing” he adds at the end earning some raised eyebrows.
“Uhhh, what man?” Kirishima asks.

Katsuki couldn’t help it, he snorted a bit at that, he knew of Izuku’s random impulses to want
to either give someone else or give himself a tattoo if someone doesn’t intervene and hand
him a regular pen or marker instead. “One of his coworkers was too numbed out from the
alcohol to feel it but basically Izuku just said to them ‘if you don’t tell me no I’m going to
pierce your ears’ which they said nothing to. They were too drunk to even feel the needles in
their ears but hey when they got over their hangover the next day they said they loved it so
even a high out of his mind Izukju can do his job.” Katsuki explains.

The others raised eyebrows just raised more in confusion, “This coworker of Izuku’s was so
drunk he didn’t really realize that he was getting his ears pierced?” Shinsou asks.

“Well I can’t remember what we were talking about at this point but I do know he was
crossfaded as fuck and I was high as hell stuck in some deep conversation. Or maybe it
wasn’t a deep conversation but either way we were not paying attention to much else but
whatever it was we were speaking about.” Katsuki elaborates.

“Uh-huh..” Shinsou says unconfidently.

Time passed and it was around eight-thirty that Izuku had shown up at the UA dorms,
Katsuki went outside to greet him at Izuku’s truck with a kiss before they went into the
building together. The commons had the couches and love seats, as well as extra chairs
spread out more and the coffee table, pushed out of the way for the whole of class 1-A and
their guest to pile in the living room so they could all hang out.

If someone was ready to sleep they could just go to their dorm room and it had already been
decided that Izuku could sleep over in Katsuki’s room. At first, there were some objections
claiming to look for a compromise but Aizawa eventually stepped in and concluded things
with ‘Midoriya will stay in Bakugou’s dorm’ promptly ending that discussion.
When Izuku walked in, he felt out of place, to say the least. He had hoped he wouldn’t feel
too awkward especially with his boyfriend, Katsuki, being there as well as the fact that he
had exchanged numbers with Shinsou and Denki and they were becoming fast friends and he
also ended up getting Sero and Todoroki’s phone numbers to which he was making fast
friends with them as well. Katsuki had also been having the four come over there sometimes
to hang out which gave even more opportunities for them to get to know each other.

Todoroki and Midoriya were able to get along quickly with some morbid dark humor jokes as
well as the whole ‘daddy issues’ joke that they had started to make into a dynamic between
the two. Katsuki and Todoroki had already been building a nonverbal understanding of
respect in strength. Outside of that, Todoroki doesn’t always get social cues and such when
he realized he felt something but didn’t know what, the only person Todoroki could think was
a ‘friend to confined in’ was Katsuki, Shinsou, Denki, and Izuku since they were all acting
like a group of close friends he was sure.

Sero and Izuku bounced off each other in Spanish quite often to the annoyance of Kaminari
that didn’t know Spanish in their little group. Sero and Izuku also would get into serious deep
discussions to talk about different smoking methods. Katsuki wasn’t as fluent as Izuku but he
could understand perfectly and speak fluent enough Spanish to be involved in full Spanish
conversations, Katsuki and Sero tended to relate to one another having to be the parent of the
group usually.

While Denki didn’t know Spanish, he did know English so it turned out Katsuki and Izuku
also knew English. What wasn’t that expected was to learn that Kaminari taught himself
English that way he could read English literature books, which Katsuki and Denki could get
into in-depth conversations about. Denki had also learned that Izuku was the author that went
by ‘Akatani Mikumo’ that wrote many in-depth quirk-related books both published in
Japanese and English which was ecstatic news for him getting to meet an author he liked.

Shinsou wasn’t a tea drinker like Katsuki and Izuku but when Izuku is sleep-deprived,
Shinsou and Izuku related to the ‘T’ about wanting a large cup of black coffee to try to help
themselves stay awake for the day. Katsuki and Shinsou tended to banter insults at one
another while Izuku and Shinsou seemed to compliment each other's sarcastic remarks.

So entering the UA dorms Izuku had some people to feel a level of comfort in having some
friends there and the topic of Izuku’s quirk, or lack of one, had already come up so Izuku’s
already told Shinsou, Denki, Sero, and Todoroki that he’s quirkless which they, in short,
didn’t really care about it were more of a curiosity question one had and after it was answered
they moved on cause they quite simply didn’t care. Izuku wondered if the others would care
cause he knew it wasn’t likely that he wouldn’t be asked about his quirk hanging around a
bunch of heroes-in-training.

The first person up and in front of Katsuki and Izuku is Mina, which surprised no one,
“Mido! So glad you're here!” Mina shouts as she grabs Izukus hand and starts dragging him
in further bringing him to sit on the couch. “I have the perfect idea for us to get to know you
better!” she claims.

“Oh?” Izuku queries.

“Yes! So it’s kind of like a mix of Kings Cup and truth or drink and truth or dares! It took a
LOT of convincing Iida to let us play this especially since he thought I was saying to use real
alcohol. Which I’m not, to clarify again!” Mina says excitedly.

“As I said, as long as it’s legal and not breaking any rules.” Iida nonchalantly adds.

“Mhm, so basically normally for Kings Cup there would be a cup in the center for
punishment that’s an alcoholic drink and there are cards all around it. Except for this, we
made one of those really unhealthy battery acid drinks. The idea is to not break a gap
between the cards or you have to take a drink from the punishment cup and the cards will
either be a truth card or a dare card and if you refuse to do the dare or answer the truth then
you take a drink from the cup. Everyone got it?” Mina asks everyone after explaining to
which there were multiple ‘yeah’ and ‘yes’ answers. “Sweet! Let’s start then!” Mina
exclaims.

Chapter End Notes


Fun fact I guess, the part about Izuku giving a coworker a piercing when they barely
noticed it is based on a real event of a friend of mine not sober enough to recognize his
friend was serious about giving him a piercing and didn't even notice they did it until
they were done and my friend now had a new piercing. They liked it and already wanted
a piercing there so no complaints were made really lol.

As always constructive criticism is appreciated as well as any ideas. Thank you for
reading <3
Interesting Sleepover So Far...
Chapter Summary

Continuation from where we left off, how the sleepover starts out and carries out for the
most part.

Some time into the game that Mina had made up they were in a back-to-back people doing
the dare or answering the truth or taking a quick drink, there had been no hiccups until the
current turn where Izuku pulled a truth card and on this turn, it was Hagakure’s turn to pose
the dare or truth question.

“Okay then Midoriya, what’s your quirk?” Hagakure asks.

It seemed only Sero, Shinsou, Denki, and Shoto were the only ones that saw the change of
shades in both Izuku and Katsuki’s faces where they both got paler. “Uh..” Izuku hesitated.

Katsuki leaned over and whispered something to Izuku which no one but Izuku heard him
say “You can just skip it.”

Izuku whispered back “They would end up asking again later if I don’t answer it now, it’s a
normal question to everyone else.”

Their audience didn’t seem to care that they were whispering but the class was just waiting
for Izuku to answer as so as he rubbed the back of his neck he mumbled out the answer.

“What was that?” Momo asked, Izuku had spoken quietly.

“I’m quirkless..” Izuku says again.

“Oh, okay cool,” Hagakure says nonchalantly as the person next to Izuku, Tsuyu, goes to pull
a card for their turn now.

“Just.. cool?” Izuku asks a bit confused, he knew that not everyone was quirkiest and if
someone had a problem with the fact that he’s quirkless Izuku at this point didn’t care like he
used to but he didn’t want to deal with it in a close part of his life, and his boyfriend's
classmates is a close part of his life.

“Yeah?” Hagakure says confused about why Izuku seemed confused.

“Oh.” Izuku’s taken aback, there were really no comments coming from anyone about it.
“Okay,” he says finally.
Before Tsuyu reads off if she got a dare or truth card she turns to Izuku “Midoriya, were you
afraid we would judge you because of that? ~kero” she asks

“Uhm, kinda.” Izuku admits

“I’m pretty sure none of us in here are going to judge you for that ~kero.” Tsuyu reassures
him with a pat on his back.

“Thank you Tsuyu.” Izuku smiles.

“I told you to call me Tsu!” Asui responds, earning laughs from the class used to hearing that
exact line from her now.

The game carried on further at that point to where the class was learning all sorts of things
about one another that they hadn’t known, or at least not everyone in the class knew.

It turned out not everyone knew that Hanta Sero wasn’t just Japanese but also Latino on his
mother's side, he didn’t just speak Spanish because he had features of a Latino it was because
he is.

No one but Hitoshi, Todorki, Sero, Bakugou, and Izuku knew that Kaminari is fluent in
English and enjoys American literature.

No one in the room knew that Izuku and Katsuki as little kids had started teaching themselves
sign language because they thought Katsuki might go deaf from his explosions. They, later
on, learned that Katsuki could get ear muffs to help prevent that but it was a skill they now
both had if they ever needed it.

Not everyone knew that Asui had two younger siblings that she has to take care of when her
parents worked out of town if they can’t find someone else to.

Izuku was surprised, not that not everyone knew but how it wasn’t even suspected by many
when Denki says that he has ADHD. Izuku added that he was also ADHD when Kaminari
said so, and Katsuki revealed that he has OCD which his class didn’t know, so Denki
wouldn’t think there weren’t other neurodivergent around him.

Katsuki was a bit annoyed by the reaction people gave to him being OCD, because it seemed
not many of his classmates were educated on what OCD is which wasn’t what annoyed them
but that they started asking him questions that were the stereotypical things, Izuku thankfully
helped shut it down by clarifying what OCD is how it’s different for different people.

The whole class could tell that Shinsou doesn’t get a good amount of sleep but they didn’t
know he actually had insomnia. None of them but Kaminari knew that Shinsou could sing
and play piano though, that was news for them all which Jiro promised Shinsou she would
get him to play and sing for her one day, except on each chance some got to dare him he took
the punishment drink.

Everyone knew that Momo and Jiro had been together for a while now, but they didn’t know
that they had actually met each other before UA. A few months before it to be more exact
when Momo happened into Jiro's parent's music store to get new violin strings.

Everyone had made jokes before about similarities in Yuuga as well as Neito Monoma but
they weren’t expecting Aoyoma to reveal that they actually are cousins, meaning that Neito
was also partially french which was also news to class 1-A.

Everyone knew how much of a, well a stick in the mud, that Tenya Iida could be, but learning
that junior high him dressed on the alternative side and that he still has holes in his ears from
piercings had surprised them all, well except Izuku who started trying to convince Iida to let
him put new earrings in.

Another revelation made was Shoto shared he got a medical card, which lead to Iida finding
out that Shoto first smoked without a card. Shoto quickly shut that up when he nonchalantly
said “I got it for my PTSD” as if there wasn’t more to unpack there.

The ones that didn’t know now knew that Mina and Kirishima went to the same junior high
together but they didn’t actually hang out until they got to UA. Mina was the leader of a
dance club in junior high and Kirishima liked attending sports games but he didn’t actually
participate in them back then.

Everyone learns that Kirishima’s red hair is fake, not by Mina’s doing per se but she was the
one to ask Kirishima the truth question to make him reveal that his hair is naturally black and
doesn’t defy gravity like he makes his hair.

The class as a whole got to see a picture of Hagakure to see what she actually looks like,
leading to a lot of people teasing a blushing Ojiro, making Toru get really flustered as well.

There was a variety of things the class learned about Izuku and Katsuki, an earlier question
asked by Aoyoma to Katsuki was “How do you two know each other?”

“My parents and his mom were friends in college so we’ve known each other since birth
practically.” Katsuki answers.

Jiro asked Izuku about instruments that he and Katsuki knew how to play, to which he
revealed that Katsuki and he can both play the electric and bass guitar and that Katsuki
know’s how to play the drums and Izuku knows how to play the acoustic guitar and ukulele
as well. Izuku emphasized how good of a singer Katsuki is while Katsuki heavily denied
requests to sing claiming that Izuku was the best singer they would hear but Izuku also
refused to sing. Which disappointed Kyoka a bit but promised that she would get them both
to sing eventually, but it also bridged the conversation for Izuku and Jiro to compare music
tastes and the bands they were into.

Ojiro asks Izuku about where he attended school, which he didn’t since he graduated earlier.
“I actually don’t attend a school right now, I graduated high school early and took fast
courses so I graduated college earlier as well and went straight for getting my licenses,” he
explained.

“Licenses?” Ojiro followed up by asking.


“Right sorry, all this ink on me isn’t just something I like on me it’s also my job. I’m a tattoo
artist and a piercer over at Black Gallery Ink and Piercer.” Izuku explains.

"Oh, I've heard that place is really good." Jiro mentions.

“I can’t help but worry with how unprofessional tattoos are,” Iida says with obvious tension
on his forehead.

“Shut it four eyes,” Katsuki tells him

“I was only saying.” Iida defended himself.

“You think? Or are you unintentionally being an asshole because you’ve been raised to
believe tattoos aren’t professional so you judge anyone with them as unprofessional?”
Katsuki spits back throwing a pointed look at him. “Do I seem like if the situation called for
it I can’t be professional?” Katsuki asks him.

“Well, you might be a bit brash but you seem collected when the matters are serious so I’d
say no you don’t seem like you can’t be professional but how is that relevant to what you
were saying?” Iida responds with.

Katsuki begrudgingly grabs the collar of his shirt on the left side to expose his collar bone
and shoulder where he had a tattoo at “The relevance being if you think I can be professional
but not Izuku based on assumptions because of something like tattoos then you need to
evaluate the way you judge.” Katsuki tells him.

Iida just sunk back a bit “Got it.” is all he can think to say.

After the tension settled a bit everyone was now asking about the tattoo they didn’t know
about while Katsuki was just ready to move on to the next person. But wait, the next person
would be Izuku who’s just grinning as they gawk over Izuku’s handiwork on Katsuki.

“Woah, you have a tattoo already!” Hagakure exclaims.

“I didn’t take you as a tattoo type actually.” Shoji states.

“It’s so pretty and the details are amazing!” Mina shouts founding over the tattoo.

“It is magnificent, I do agree.” Yuuga says.

There were other basic questions on the tattoo but they didn’t really catch anyone off guard
until Kirishima had posed a question “Why did you even get a tattoo?” he asked.

Katsuki looks to Kirishima with a confused expression “What do you mean Shitty Hair?”
Katsuki asks.

“I-” Kirishima seemed to falter a second “I meant like why did you want to get a tattoo and
why was this the tattoo you got, I didn’t mean anything by that other than being curious bro.”
Kirishima explains.
Katsuki sighs a bit at that but it was small, little, and subtle. “Izuku wanted me to be his first
client outside of giving himself tattoos so I let him work on designing me one and I gave my
own input on it,” Katsuki tells them.

"Wait you did his tattoo?" Jiro asks Izuku.

"Uh, yeah?" Izuku answers.

"Dude you are really talented!" Jiro exclaims.

"Oh, um, thank you I appreciate it." Izuku rubs the back of his neck a bit uncomfortable but
still appreciative of the compliments. Katsuki thinks to himself seeing the display 'you may
have gotten more confident in your self but you still suck at taking complements'.

“Aren’t you worried about regretting it when you're older though?” Kirisima asks to Katsuki.

“No.” Katsuki says giving an expression reading ‘why would I, dumbass’ before he opened
his mouth again “If I thought I might regret it then I wouldn’t of even let him put the stencil
on when he had. Plus–” Katsuki starts to lean back into a more relaxed position “Izu
freehands his art anyways, he’s a talented artist so If I was having a tattoo put on me it was
going to be something original.” Katsuki explains.

There were a few ‘oh’s’ heard to that, not that Katsuki was sure why, he found it stupid that
they thought he would allow himself to get a tattoo on his body if he might regret it. “Not that
I wouldn’t admittedly be a little offended if he wanted to remove the tattoo I gave him but if
he wanted, tattoos are not as permanent as they used to so he could get it laser removed one
day if he wanted to,” Izuku mentioned as an attempt to give their brains something to fall on
if they're so concerned about Katsuki regretting it later.

“Oh yeah, that’s true.” Momo said not really thinking if it was out loud or not.

“Do you not worry yourself about people assuming things when they meet you because of all
your visible tattoos?” Ochaco asks directing her attention to Izuku so he knew she was asking
him.

“Well not really that I worry about it but I’m fully aware that it could happen. There is not a
day that's gone by when I’ve gone into public and not had some stares. I’ve had people think
I’m a felon before which surprised me because the closes to trouble with the law I’ve ever
been was all in self-defense and the police could clearly see that.” Izuku explains.

“Oh. That sounds like it sucks though.” Uraraka adds.

“Yeah, the more people ut there working on not assuming things the better though. I had
someone try to tell me I can never donate blood again because of my tattoos.” Izuku says.

“Wait really?” Mina asks.

“Mhmm.” Izuku confirms.

“But, why?” Ashido asks.


“It’s not true, they’ve assumed something based on not all the facts.” Izuku says “Someone
that obtains a tattoo in a state that doesn’t regulate their tattoo parlor are prevented from
giving blood donations for a period of one year following the artwork.” he explains “It’s a
precaution, not some prohibition.” he adds at the end.

“Oh that makes sense.” Mina says.

“And Kirishima I know you were simply asking but a little tip. Don’t ask someone why they
got the tattoo they did.” Izuku says to Kirishima.

“What do you mean?” Kirishima asks.

“Well, some people get tattoos for very personal reasons and others because they just thought
the image looked cool. Some people won’t mind being asked for their reason behind it but for
many, it’s more a taboo thing.” Izuku explains to him.

“Oh man, sorry!” Kirishima exclaims to Katsuki “That really wasn’t manly of me then!” he
says.

Katsuki tsked at this but responded “Whatever it’s okay now chill out.”

“Sorry if this is something else not very considerate, just tell me, but I was wondering how
did your guys' parents react to the tattoos?” Momo asks Katsuki and Izuku.

Izuku and Katsuki looked at each and couldn’t helo but snort a few laughs while the others
looked at them very confused, but Izuku spoke up “Auntie Mitsuki wasn’t very happy with
me that day. It would have all been alright if Kat had actually told her about it before I did it
as I said to but she about beat my ass to hell that day and she did beat Kat’s ass to hell that
day while he had a really sore shoulder from the tattoo.” Izuku explains while Katsuki stifles
a laugh the whole time until Izukus at the end and they both just start actually laughing.

Class 1-A did not know what they were witnessing with Katsuki at the moment having him
laugh so much and openly in front of them but they were all trying to refrain from
commenting on such because they had almost all pretty much joined in on the laughing as
well.

“What about your mom? I feel like she would have something to say with the abundance of
them you have Midoriya-kun.” Uraraka asks.

“Oh um, she didn’t have to pay or do anything and it wasn’t bothering her so besides thinking
they look horrible on me she doesn’t care.” Izuku says in an attitude class 1-A can only take
as he really must not care what people think about his tattoos.

"She really didn't care?" Uraraka asks checking.

"When they were on me, yeah, no, she didn't care." Izuku states flatly "Although she was
pretty pissed that I gave Kat one~," Izuku said sing-songy at the end leaning back onto
Katsuki a bit as he did making the two laugh a bit at his comment.

"What's funny about her being mad about giving Bakugou a tattoo?" Iida asks.
"It's funny because why the hell does it even matter if he gave me one or not!" Katsuki states.
They all just look at the two confused and concluded that it had to of made sense between to
two of them because it didn't to them.

They ended up realizing they had gotten off track and they got back on track with the game
they were playing, back over on Izuku and Katsuki’s turns on truth cards they started getting
asked about their piercings, all similar questions they had about the tattoos.

“What did your parents think?” one asked.

“Why did you decide to get a piercing?” another asked.

“Did Midoriya do your piercings as well?” someone asked Katsuki.

“Did it hurt getting a septum?” one of them asked.

“Would you be able to recommend me a piercing?” someone else asked.

“Could you give me a piercing?” another person asked.

Izuku and Katsuki in summary answered that “Mitsuki out lashed like she did about the
tattoo” because they just did it and Katsuki didn’t tell Mitsuki like Izuku told him to. For
Izuku it “almost didn’t matter until she saw blood stains on the bathroom counter after my
attempts to self pierce” he told them, to which they wanted to ask more questions on except
Izuku moved the conversation along. Katsuki confirmed that Izuku gave him his piercings
and Izuku confirmed that a septum does hurt in the long run. Izuku also told them that he
would be able to recommend them a piercing and give them one if they came to the shop he
worked at.

Thanks to opportunities with the dare cards, Kyoka does manage to get Izuku and Katsuki
singing, neither was lying about the other's ability to sing or play guitars.

Everyone was aware of Tsuyu and Tokoyami’s mutual interest in one another except for
apparently them two but thanks to dare cards and Mina being the one to dish out the dare to
Tokoyami, they got the two to kiss. Which had them admitting their feelings to one another
and officially becoming a couple.

Sero at one point realized that he didn’t actually make it quite known that he and Todorki
were dating so with a chance to hit two birds with one stone when he got to pick the dar out
to give to Shoto he just dared Shoto to kiss him which Todoroki happily obliged. Earning
some mixes of 'awee' and 'knew it' comments while Hitoshi, Denki, Kirishima, Izuku, Mina,
and Jiro were just like 'been knew' about it.

Momo pretended to be offended that Jiro knew and didn't tell her but revealed she was only
joking when Jiro got concerned she had hurt Momo's feelings because she thought that
everyone had already known. These events left Jiro open for Kaminari to tease her right back
as she does to him all the time about being a simp for their partner.
The way they were all seated had Tsuyu next to Izuku with Katsuki on the other side of him
and on the other side of Katsuki was Kirishima so the whole time Kirishima was subtly trying
to scoot in closer to Katsuki who hadn’t even noticed himself subconsciously scooting closer
to Izuku. Katsuki did have a few times of noticing Kirishima really close to him so he
consciously scooted himself away a bit.

Kirishima noticed when Katsuki would actually scoot away from him, he wouldn’t comment
on it but it made him a bit sad that Katsuki wasn’t reciprocating the signals he was trying to
send, he also wondered if he was making Katsuki nervous instead and that he wasn’t catching
onto the fact that Kirishima was sending signals.

Katsuki had the thought cross his mind before, about Kirishima, the redhead sometimes did
things that Katsuki was sure was his way of acting around his crush but he didn’t want to
assume that completely. Tonight however was making it more apparent and Katsuki wasn’t
the only one noticing how Kirishima was acting. Izuku was noticing it too.

Kirishima was starting to get an idea of this Izuku Midoriya, and there wasn't anything he
could find that was red flags or cause for concern. Anything there was to comment on was all
superficial, he knew it wasn't 'manly' to judge someone on that. Izuku hadn't once been rude
to Kirishima or acted any different to him as he has all the others and Kirishima was starting
to realize he was finding the guy pretty funny and they were getting along as well. Except for
every time Izuku and Katsuki got physically closer whether they noticed it or not it would
make a singe of pain in his chest.

Later on when the game was well done with they had switched to turning on some video
games for people to take turns with and Sero gave the suggestion of going out to skate. So
now Izuku, Katsuki, Hitoshi, Denki, Shoto, Sero, Jiro, Momo, Tsuyu, and Tokoyami were
heading out to a skate park to smoke and skate after convincing Iida it would be okay and
letting Aizawa know.

Mina, Kirishima, Hagakure, and Uraraka were busy playing on the video games when they
checked so they stayed behind at the dorms as did Iida, Aoyoma, Ojiro, Koda, Sato, and
Mezo.

Out at the skatepark they settled sitting beside the edge of the post shallow bowl as Izuku
rolled them up a few joints using the moonrocks he made and brought with them before they
all got settled with their own joint and grabbed their skateboards.

Except for the ones that wouldn’t be participating like Momo, Tsuyu, and Tokoyami didn’t
smoke but Jiro did. Momo and Tsuyu also didn’t skateboard but Momo was letting her
girlfriend Kyoka try to teach her and Tsuyu was comfortable sitting like an actual frog at the
end of Tokoyami’s long board making him deal with trying to skate with her on there.

They were all getting to witness Izuku mixing parkour with his skating like Katsuki had
mentioned and he could tell Izuku was high at this point because he kept having moments or
murmuring his words.

“I can understand your mumbling I can’t make things out when your murmuring under your
breath Izu.” Katsuki tells Izuku as he drags him away from his skateboard and has him sit
down.

“Shut up, I’m just talking in cursive I’m not murmuring!” Izuku retorts.

“Talking in cursive?” Shinsou raises an eyebrow but then shrugs the comment off.
“Anyways, Izuku we were trying to get your attention because you had a few text
notifications and someone tried to call you as well.” Hitoshi informs Izuku while handing
him his phone.

“Oh?” Izuku asks taking his phone.

“Who’s trying to contact you tonight?” Katsuki asks.

Izuku shrugs his shoulder mumbling an ‘I don’t know, hold on’ before he turns his screen on
and unlocks his phone to see his notifications. Katsuki sees as the full annoyance covers
Izuku’s face.

“Izu?” Katsuki questions concerned.

Izuku’s expression that was simply annoyed then shifted into a concern which Katsuki could
tell as well, once again questioning “Izu?” he says.

Back at the dorms, after Kirishima, Mina, Toru, and Ochaco’s game ended things went in a
direction that Iida definitely wanted to avoid and wasn’t expecting would happen.

“That’s an invasion of privacy Mina.” Tenya tells her.

“Not when you all live under the same roof it isn't! We’ve all seen everyone else's room
except for Blasty's and he’s even let Denki, Sero, Shinsou-kun, and Todoroki-kun in there!”
Mina shouts back.

“Still-” Tenya started to shout back but Ochaco put her hand on his shoulder.

“Iida I don’t think you are going to get her to listen to you. We might as well go with them to
make sure she doesn’t mess anything up of his.” Uraraka tells him.
Iida lets out a stressed sigh “I guess.” he tells her.

So now while Ojiro, Koda, Mezo, and Sato sat back in the living room occupying themselves
Mina, Kirishima, Hagakure, Uraraka, Iida, and Aoyoma were heading to Katsuki’s dorm
room. When they arrived, Mina wasted no time swinging the door wide open immediately.
The Night Continues
Chapter Summary

Continuing from where we left off once more, building up more to find out who was
trying to contact Izuku.

When they opened the door, Katsuki still had his LED lights left on so it was set up to pretty
much walk in and vibe at the moment with his stoner box open on a small coffee table
between his bed and TV stand. The group was just taking in the sight of Katsuki’s bedroom
looking around noticing all the various bands, games, and hero posters on the wall and the
electric guitar and skateboards on the wall as well.

The first thing someone shouted at noticing was Mina shouting about the drum set “So he
actually has his own drum set! That’s really cool!” she exclaimed going over to check out and
inspect the drum set as the others started to spread out looking around Katsuki’s room and
Iida turned on the rooms main light so they could see better.

Kirishima is over at Katsuki’s TV stand looking at all the CD cases on its bottom self
“Bakubro really had a lot of video games.” he says while inspecting a single video game case
before placing back where it was.

“I’ll say..” Hagakure commented now looking through the video games herself.

Kirishima stood up and walked over to the skateboard Katsuki had on the wall “Well you can
definitely tell that Bakubro’s had this skateboard for a while.” he comments catching the
attention of all in the room.

“What do you mean?” Uraraka asks.

“I mean these,” Kirishima points to a few burnt spots on the skateboard “also there’s stickers
with explosions and skulls and while Bakubro likes those things I think this is more of a way
a kid Bakugou would design it,” he says.

“I see what you mean,” Uraraka says agreeing.

“I wonder if we could convince him to play his something on the guitar or drums, maybe get
him to sing even.” Kirishima comments.

“Oooo! We really do need to try to do that!” Mina exclaims.

“Bakugou-kun already expressed that he didn’t want to showcase his musical talent so I
doubt he will change his mind.” Iida points out.
“Maybe, maybe not~” Mina replies in a sing-songy voice.

“It seems Bakugou rather heavily partakes in this habit of his,” Aoyoma comments while
holding out a pipe he’s inspecting from Katsuki’s stoner box.

“It seems he does but as long as it is truly helping him, isn’t harmful, and isn’t illegal then we
should support him on wanting to better himself even if aid is used!” Iida expresses while
heavily chopping his arm and hand up and down.

They were all still looking around at things Katsuki has in his room when one of them saw
something they were not expecting to see, “Um, guys.” Toru says.

“What is it Hagakure?” Uraraka asks as she turns and starts walking toward Toru, as soon as
she sees what Hagakure is looking at though she stopped “Oh.” she vocalized.

“Well, what is it?” Mina asks excitedly as she made her way over to the wall that Uraraka and
Toru were looking at.

“Yes, I am a bit curious about what caused Uraraka-kun to stop in her tracks,” Iida says
walking over as well.

“Hmm?” Yuuga hums walking over to the wall like the rest.

“Yeah girls, what are you looking at?” Kirishima asks walking over as well.

Even with a struggle to read the room often, Iida was well aware of Kirishima’s crush on
Bakugou so like all the others once they looked at the pictures on the corkboard he froze
subtly glancing over to Kirishima as if looking for confirmation on how to react.

No one wanted to vocalize anything, unsure what to say as they all looked at the many
pictures all containing Izuku and the majority of them including Katsuki in them as well but
finally Kirishima said something “Oh.” it wasn’t much, but it was something.

In many of these pictures, there was Izuku and Katsuki curled up with one another and or
hugged each other, they generally looked adorable in all of them. There were a few funny
pictures as well, one picture depicting Izuku falling back into Katsuki’s drum set and another
had Izuku flipping Katsuki off with both fingers while Katsuki had a fake expression of
shock and hurt in response on his face in the image.

They all depicted this really cute couple, and what really said it to the snoopy six that weren’t
where they should be was the pictures of Katsuki and Izuku kissing each other. There were
some on the forehead or cheek that could have been read platonic but there were also pictures
of them kissing on the lips.

“Kiri…” Mina tried speaking gently and placing a hand on Kirishima’s shoulder but he just
jerked away.

“Sorry I– sorry Mina, just not right now,” Kirishima tells her.

“I understand,” Mina says bringing her hands down and more to herself.
Back at the skate park with Izuku, Katsuki, Hitoshi, Denki, Shoto, Sero, Jiro, Momo, Tsuyu,
and Tokoyami things were getting on a serious note for them as well. Katsuki is concerned
for Izuku who’s apparently decided even if he didn’t like who was calling that it was serious
enough to call back.

Tsuyu and Tokoyami were still in the bowl skating as were Jiro and Momo but when they
saw Hitoshi, Kaminari, Sero, and Shoto’s body language change as they all stood up around
Izuku as if something was happening they brought themselves over to the rest of the group.
The four could see that Izuku had his phone up to his ear as it was likely ringing so they
didn’t vocalize anything but Jiro gave a look over to Hitoshi who shrugged his shoulders as if
saying he doesn’t know what is going on.

“What the fuck are you talking about?” Izuku says catching everyone off guard, Katsuki less
than the others, it wasn’t because Izuku cursed they had heard him curse before but his tone
of voice was sour like he was spitting disgust at whoever was on the other end of the phone.

“This is why I told you to move somewhere else! Is he seriously over there right now?” Izuku
was shouting through the phone and gave the person on the other end a chance to speak again
before saying a bit monotone “I think he already knows I don’t want to talk to him.”

The mention of a ‘him’ seemed to catch Katsuki’s attention and the others could only assume
Katsuki knows who Izuku was referring to and right now Izuku was quite listening to the
person on the phone speak as Izuku looked up to Katsuki sticking his elbow out as if
nonverbally speaking and Katsuki took a hold of Izuku’s phone for him but held it up to
Izuku’s ear as Izuku started grabbing the things he brought with in his backpack up.

“You don’t do anything stupid. Stay inside with the doors locked I’ll be there soon.” with that
Izuku grabs his phone from Katsuki ending the call promptly and finishing throwing things in
his bag. “Sorry guys but I need to get back to your dorms and get back to my truck. I have to
go.” Izuku tells them.

“We can all head back to the dorms now, it’s around midnight anyways,” Momo says. They
had taken Todoroki’s vehicle up to the skatepark since it could fit them all but they were now
rushing back to the UA dorms.

“Was that about who I think it’s about?” Katsuki asks Izuku.

“Yup.” is all Izuku responds with and Katsuki tsked at that.

It was only a few minutes and they were back at the dorms and all rushing back inside, Izuku
was heading to Katsuki’s room where his bag with his car keys was at with Katsuki right
behind him as was Sero, Shoto, Hitoshi, Denki, Momo, Jiro, Tsuyu, and Tokoyami following
not far behind them as well.

If Izuku wasn’t so caught up in the moment he would have paused when he got closer and the
door looked like it was open except he was in a rush so he ignored it until he was actually at
the door and now has Katsuki standing behind him looking at what appears to be Mina,
Hagakure, Tenya, Aoyoma, Uraraka, and Kirishima all staring at there corkboard of their
pictures.
“What the actual hell,” Katsuki says.

Momo, Jiro, Tsuyu, Tokoyami, Denki, Sero, Shoto, and Hitoshi were all now caught up and
behind Izuku and Katsuki. Now the two groups were just staring at each other gawking until
Izuku started moving to walk into the room, “Alright it looks like you guys made a stupid ass
decision but I don’t have time for this.” Izuku says walking in and going over to his bag to
dig his keys out.

“What gave you dumbasses the idea that it would be okay to just come into my room
uninvited!?” Katsuki shouted at them, he was angry and pissed, and already wasn’t in the
mood when they came rushing to his room.

“Bakugou, please remain calm I do agree that–” Tenya tried.

“Don’t tell me to calm the fuck down four-eyes! You agree that what? That this was stupid
what you guys did? I hope that’s what you were planning on saying!” Katsuki yells.

“Why didn’t you tell us you were in a relationship?” came in Kirishima’s voice.

Katsuki turned to look at him “We had our reasons for that but if you had been patient you
would have been told anyways if we got to that comfort level with you! It’s none of any of
you guys god damn business what’s in my personal life I don’t want to share it!” Katsuki
shouts.

Izuku finally found his keys and was walking around the group of people and got outside the
room but Katsuki was too caught up with his classmates and Izuku had gotten called again,
with what Katsuki was shouting about patience Izuku wished this other man had patience,
“Oh my fucking Kami if he does any fucking thing I swear this time he will be the one to
almost end up in a coma!” he shouted at the person over the phone quickly hanging up.

Izuku looked around and saw Sero looking like he had more awareness at the moment so he
told him “Tell Kacchan I had to go, I’m running out of time.” he tells him.

“Wait, Mido, are you sure you should go by yourself? Whatever’s going on sounded serious.”
Sero tells him.

“Look I don’t care to explain things but I don’t have the time to right now!” Izuku
exaggerates “Okay?” he asks with pleading eyes.

Sero groans but grunts out “Okay fine, fine” before Izuku takes off.

The shouting in Katsuki’s room was carrying on but by the time Izuku had exited the building
and taken off in his car that’s when Katsuki looked around and didn’t see Izuku around
anymore. “Shit.” he vocalized “Where the hell is Izuku?” Katsuki shouted.

“Oh yeah, cause a boyfriend none of your friends even knew about is what’s important not
your friend's hurt feelings,” Kirishima says rolling his eyes.

Katsuki turned angrily at him “Shut the hell up shitty hair, there were friends that knew about
us being together and the reason you didn’t was because of your own actions. The way you
acted around him didn’t give the message that I could open to you that he’s my boyfriend.”
he states. “Now where the ever-loving FUCK is my boyfriend!?” Katsuki yells asking.

“He had gotten another call,” Sero speaks up “he mentioned something about someone else
being the one to almost end up in a coma before he hanged up and said he needed to go
before he ran out of time,” Sero explains.

“Oh no,” Katsuki says. “Oh my fucking word, NO!” Katsuki starts walking to jog and then
run almost tripping over people on his way out of the room with the way he acted he had his
class following behind asking him what was wrong and when they made it into the living
room there was Aizawa just standing there.

“Someone want to explain what all the yelling is about and why your guest's truck sped out
of here so fast the left skid marks?” Aizawa asks.

“Sensei, I really don’t have time to fucking explain I need to go help Izuku before he gets
himself hurt, arrested, or worst!” Katsuki shouts and now that definitely had everyone's full
attention if the situation didn’t already.

“Woah, Woah, wait problem child. So is Midoriya in danger right now?” Aizawa asks.

“YES!” Katsuki shouts in response.

“Okay then, let’s go problem child,” Aizawa tells him.

As Aizawa started to turn around and Katsuki was starting to walk to follow suit the rest of
the class vocalized a ‘wait’ to the both of them.

“We don’t have time to fucking wait!” Katsuki says while igniting a few small explosions in
his hand.

“We want to help though! Let us come with to help!” Mina expresses.

Aizawa just looks to Katsuki, waiting for him to say whether than can or not since he knows
what there heading into, “No. Izuku would get pissed if I let yall help so just stay here and
he’ll be happy!” Katsuki tells them as Aizawa and he finally leaves the building.

While they make their way to their destination where Izuku is, Katsuki fills Aizawa in on
what happened in the past to give him an idea of what the scenario is that he's walking in on.
A Past 'Outing'
Chapter Summary

Here is what Katsuki fills Aizawa in on, back in the past when the boys were only
sixteen, this is what happened in the Midoriya’s household.

Chapter Notes

There are offensive words used in this chapter as for the story but they are not words I
am okay with people using, just giving heads of homophobic words used in here. I don't
think it's okay to use those words, so I wanna emphasize they are not okay words at all
they were only used for the fics plot/story.

Around the time Izuku and Katsuki were sixteen years old, they had started dating the day
before Katsuki’s sixteenth birthday and they were now both sixteen. They had already been
having late-night calls with each other every once in a while but now that they were actually
together it was more frequent.

On this night Izuku was discussing something serious with Katsuki, he was discussing how to
tell Inko or if he even should tell her at all. Specifically, Izuku complained “I can’t just
outright say ‘hey by the way I’m a raging homosexual that’s super gay’ to her” about how to
even say it.

But Izuku wouldn’t even get a chance to figure out how he would say things because the door
that he thought was closed all the way flew open when he said that. Inko stood in his
doorway with an expression Izuku hadn’t seen before. “Y-yes?” he softly questioned.

Inko just looked him up and down and made a sound that Izuku could only say was disgust
before just walking away with only saying “I do not accept having a gay son.” and that was
it.

After that the neglect was still as is but the small attention she was, I guess ‘forced’ to give,
she would give dirty looks at him throughout the week, Katsuki was always there to comfort
him but it still hurt. He thought he wouldn’t care either way she reacted since she rarely paid
him any mind, but it still hurt, he still cared for her, she was his mother and he couldn’t get
rid of the glimpse of hope he had in here.

He was starting to wonder if there was any care left from her though when only two weeks
after the accidental outing to his mom he got the worse wake-up call. It wasn’t even a call
actually. Izuku had gotten woken up by being literally dragged out of his bed, the sudden
alertness and his situation made Izuku yell out.

“You damn brat! So you're some disgusting fagot?” Izuku hears a gruff loud male voice
behind him belonging to the one dragging him off his bed.

“Stop! Stop!” Izuku tried yelling as he tried to grab for anything he can to keep himself from
being fully pulled off the bed but he failed as he was yanked away and thrown to the ground.
After the impact, Izuku looked up to see the one attacking him to see a face he hadn’t seen in
many years.

“D-Hi-Hisashi?” Izuku questioned, he doesn’t know why but the word ‘dad’ almost slipped
out which this man was not to him.

“I knew you were useless but then you had to go and be even more disgusting!’ Hisashi
shouts as he walked over and kicked Izuku in his stomach right at the word ‘disgusting’.
Izuku was kicked hard enough he could taste blood in his mouth building up so he had to spit
out the blood in his mouth. “See! What did I say, disgusting!” Hisashi yelled motioning to
Izuku’s bloody spit on the floor.

Izuku pushed himself off the ground to stand up but Hisashi just kicked him back down
“Don’t even try to defend yourself you useless piece of homosexual trash!” he shouts at him
as he goes into a kicking him over and over in his stomach.

Izuku does manage to back up away and reaches to grab a lamp and throw it at Hisashi’s face
while he grabs his phone in a swift motion to shoot an s.o.s text out to the first person he
thought of and the only person he thinks of for safety.

Izuku went to sprint to get away but Hisashi was following close behind, they were in the
hallway when Hisashi took a deep breath and then sent a fire breath right at Izuku’s back and
‘shit did that burn like a motherfucker’ Izuku thought as the force sent him to the ground but
he was soon back on his feet despite the pain running away.

Hisashi continued to send breaths of fire Izuku’s way, most dodged but some hitting Izuku. In
the living room Hisashi breaths fire hitting all the immediate exits for Izuku as he comes
closer to corner Izuku in and they went into a fist fight with one another each landing hard
hits but Hisashi was using the advantages of his quirk and make the surroundings harder for
Izuku to manage in.

At one point Hisashi grabbed Izuku by the throat, the lack of oxygen giving Hisashi the upper
hand to throw Izuku hard onto the ground and Hisashi went to punching Izuku hard in his
face and he eventually stood up and went to kicking Izuku in a barrage of kicks, kicking him
as much as he can, as hard as he can, anywhere he can.

Izuku doesn’t even know how long it went on for but he guesses he passed out because his
eyes were heavy then when he could actually open it Hisashi was saying something about
finally ‘coming to’ but he obviously wasn’t about to give Izuku a break as he walks closer
and sucker punches Izuku in the jaw.
There was still some back-and-forth punches that were thrown but Hisashi was getting the
upper hand on Izuku and switched Izuku around to pin his stomach to the ground exposing
Izuku’s back to him which was already a bit singed.

Katsuki was gone in a split second as soon as he received the s.o.s from Izuku and he had
Izuku call him on speaker so he could hear what was going on while he put himself on mute.
Katsuki could pick up over the phone that Izuku was being hurt and had Mitsuki call the
police to the Midoriya residence. When Katsuki arrived at the home he could see a lot of
main exits blocked so he went around to Izuku’s bedroom and crawled in through the
window rushing to the sounds of yelling in the living room.

Katsuki walked in to see Hisashi fire breathing onto Izuku’s bare back, he immediately shot
for the man hooking a grip onto Hisashi’s face and sending him in the opposite direction of
Izuku with an explosion. Hisashi went to stand up after that but Katsuki started shooting him
down with his explosion when the police were finally arriving so Katsuki backed off only to
run over to Izuku’s side.

Izuku was put onto a stretcher and carried into an ambulance that drove Izuku with Katsuki
and Mitsuki riding along as well to the nearest hospital while Hisashi was taken into custody
and Inko was being questioned.

For the next few days, Inko had officers asking her questions about what had happened and
how it happened. Inko seemed to be very conflicted on emotions be otherwise answered all
questions truthfully so with her statement along with Mitsuki, Katsuki, and especially Izuku’s
statement Hisashi was going to jail for a few years for assault and illegal quirk usage.

The week and a half Izuku had after was interesting laid up in a hospital bed with Katsuki
there as soon as visiting time begins to until the employees make him leave. It turned out that
he was almost put into a coma from his injuries, and there would be a bit of physical therapy
he would have to attend for a little while with all the burns healing on his back. He at least
had the Bakugou’s acting like overbearing parents checking in on Izuku and coddling him,
and having unlimited cuddles, even if Katsuki is very cautious so not putting pressure on
Izuku any, from his boyfriend was nice even if the scenario he’s there for isn’t.

Izuku’s Twitch viewers were really curious about why Izuku was gone for a week and a half
as well as where some of his facial injuries had come from. He couldn’t exactly explain the
whole getting beaten almost into a coma by your sperm donor and spending a week in a
hospital getting coddled by your boyfriend and his parents while your incubator had to deal
with police while your sperm donor gets sent to jail all on a live stream. He felt that was a bit
much to share, maybe in the future if it came up.
The Missing Parts of the Phone Call
Chapter Summary

Here is the part of the phone conversation that was not heard

Izuku opened his phone to see two text messages from ‘incubator’ Inko, the first read “Izuku,
he’s out.” and the second one read “Hisashi wants to speak with you.” followed by the
multiple missed calls.

Izuku immediately went to call Inko back and as soon as it was answered he hears “Izuku?”
on the other line.

“What the fuck are you talking about?” Izuku shouts at Inko.

“He just showed up and now he’s outside shouting for you to come to talk to him,” Inko tells
him.

“This is why I told you to move somewhere else! Is he seriously over there right now?” Izuku
yells at her in disbelief because why didn’t she move out of the house they used to all live in
together before the man got out of jail.

“Yes..” she sounded hesitant, “he says he only wants to talk, nothing else,” Inko tells him.

Izukus expression unknown to him went a bit expressionless as his tone of voice went
monotone when he said “I think he already knows I don’t want to talk to him.”

“I don’t think he’s going to leave until he gets to talk to you Izuku,” Inko says as Izuku
looked up to Katsuki sticking his elbow out as if nonverbally speaking and Katsuki took a
hold of Izuku’s phone for him but held it up to Izuku’s ear as Izuku started grabbing the
things he brought with in his backpack to put things up.

Izuku groaned a bit over the phone before telling her “You don’t do anything stupid. Stay
inside with the doors locked I’ll be there soon.” before grabbing his phone back and promptly
ended the phone call.

Back at the dorms during the commotion in Katsuki’s room as Izuku slipped into the hallway
where some others were, Inko called once more, Izuku immediately answered with a
“What?” colder than he knew.

“He’s starting to get really impatient... Izuku, he said wants you to come out here and talk to
him or he’s going to blame me.” Inko says and Izuku can’t help but feel like a sucker hearing
the hiccup in her voice.
There were problems between him and Inko but he would never want her dead or seriously
harmed, “Oh my fucking Kami if he does any fucking thing I swear this time he will be the
one to almost end up in a coma!” he shouted to her before quickly hanging up and rushing to
leave.
Oh My Word, This Night…
Chapter Summary

Continuation of the interesting night they’ve been having, Aizawa and Katsuki hurry to
help at Midoriya’s House while class 1-A hangs behind.

Izuku’s truck skidded as he pulled up at his old home with his mother, he jumps out
practically slamming his door shut as he walks over to Hisashi who was standing in the yard
before Izuku pulled in though he was sending random fire breaths at the house burning parts.
Hisashi’s head turned in Izuku’s direction when he slammed the door of his truck, “Oh, you
decided to finally listen?” the man says with a grin on his face.

“Not my fault I have a life, unlike you who lost any semblance of a life a few years ago. How
was prison by the way sperm donor?” Izuku retorts.

Hisashi gritted his teeth together annoyed at that “Shut up. That’s all your fault anyway!” he
shouts at him.

“Oh really?” Izuku asks with a look of ‘you have got to be kidding me’ he sighs grunting and
running a hand through his hair “It’s my fault that you're a deadbeat dad that only showed up
again to beat the shit outta his son for being gay?” he shouts asking. Hisashi didn’t really
answer that, instead gritting his teeth harder and sending a breath of fire at Izuku who took
cover by going behind his truck. “Is that all you know how to do when you're mad? Shoot
that fire out of your mouth.” Izuku retorts.

“How about you stop hiding behind your truck like a little coward, huh?” Hisashi says,
“What happened to wanting to be a hero little Izuku~ heroes don’t cower away.” he taunted.

Izuku successfully ignored his taunt going around to the other end of his truck where the
tailgate would be to get a better look around. Izuku did think to grab a weapon from his truck
before exiting for protection, he grabbed a metal baton that has an insulator handle that way
Hisashi heated it up so it wouldn’t burn Izuku’s hand for holding it. Hisashi was making his
way closer to the truck at the same time Izuku was moving around behind it but Hisashi was
walking towards the side he saw Izuku go to, the front of the truck.

Hisashi tried dunking down some and started creeping around with the idea of catching Izuku
off guard but when he swiftly turned the corner of the truck he straightened up his poster and
he stood up straight with a confused expression. Then there was a few small taps on his
shoulder and he turned around only to be greeted by a metal pole smacking him in the face
and making him trip back a little. Izuku had sneaked all the way around to have Hisashi turn
around and face him face to face for Izuku to smack him in the face with the baton.
Hisashi couldn’t keep himself from falling down but he grunted in frustration bringing
himself back to his knees. Izuku tries to keep him from gaining an upper hand on him by
going into a fighting position and now sending a few directed punches Hisashi’s way. Hisashi
was still trying to regain his balance but it was hard with Izuku sending punches his way
through it he manages to gain his footing back to be able to send punches back at Izuku.

Hisashi and Izuku started on a back-and-forth clash of an assortment of punches and kicks
from both parties, whether Hisashi admitted it or not though Izuku was doing better than him.

Back with Katsuki and Aizawa, they opted for transportation via Katsuki his quirk, and
Aizawa his capture scarf. Katsuki had explained what he had been told by Izuku about that
morning a few years ago up to the part that Katsuki and his parents were visiting Izuku in the
hospital for a week and Katsuki helped Izuku with some of the physical therapy he had to do
for his back. Izuku became insecure about his back from the event, it left significant burn
scarring on his back so on parts of the skin that he could Izuku had tattoos over it but
otherwise if Izuku is shirtless and you see his exposed back then there’s no missing the scars.
Katsuki also helped Izuku with that as much as he could but he knew that Izuku still got self-
conscious about it.

“So basically we just got a homophobic abusive deadbeat dad with some firepower to deal
with!” Katsuki tells Aizawa.

“Alright, how much further are we from Midoriyas mothers house?” Aizawa asks.

“Not much further!” Katsuki tells him.

Back at the Midoriya home, Inko was watching things play out from inside the house with all
the doors locked as Izuku said for her to do. When she saw Izuku rushing to the door she
hurried to run over the door, Izuku banged on it and Inko swiftly opened the door and they
both slammed to door shut and locked it.

They were both breathing heavily from that rush, Izuku more than Inko as Izuku now had
some injuries on him. His forehead had blood dripping on it, meaning there was some injury
on Izuku’s head. There were visible cuts bleeding on Izuku and dark reddened marks that
look like they will bruise. Inko gives him a once over and walks into her kitchen grabbing a
rag and soaking it in cold water before ringing it and bringing it over to Izuku, “Thanks”
Izuku mumbles out to her.

“Oh, um, your welcome Izuku,” she tells him. There’s a bang at the door and they both jump
a little, Inko obviously more panicked. “Did he say what he wanted?” she winces when she
asks because Izuku lifted up his shirt at that moment revealing a bloodied wound she hadn’t
noticed.

Izuku seemed to not care about the injury, after seeing it he let his shirt back down and look
at Inko “All I was able to get is he’s pissed that he went to jail and wants some semblance of
revenge for that.” Izuku tells her. “He mentioned he was also pissed when he found my
stream and that I have a boyfriend. Hah– what did he expect? That because he beat the shit
out of me that he beat the gay out of me as well?” he asks rhetorically.
The banging on the door was still going on, they knew it was Hisashi banging on the door
because he was yelling all sorts of slurs and taunts trying to get Izuku mad enough that he
will open the door. “You were right, I should have moved from this place earlier. And I
should have never said anything to him in the first place about your sexuality, that wasn’t my
place and I’m sorry.” Inko speaks up.

Izuku wasn’t exactly paying her much mind, but to those apologies and admission that Izuku
was right, he heard. He watched her, observing for something fake to say that she was
pretending but it doesn't, she seems genuine. Izuku sighs with closed eyes before looking to
Inko again “Look, I appreciate the apologies truly and you admitting you were wrong but we
have a lot of problems that have to be worked out and fixed. One apology for only one thing
you’ve done to me doesn’t solve it all but that is the first step. We can try to work on
repairing things later, alright?” Izuku tells her.

Inko just nods with a subtle soft smile agreeing with what Izuku has said when the banging
on the door gets even harder, “Oh my.” Inko comments.

“Go upstairs, lock and barricade yourself in your bedroom, alright?” Izuku asks.

“What? What about you though?” Inko asks in response.

“There’s no way Kacchan isn’t already on his way here to help and I can handle myself,”
Izuku tells her.

Inko finally nods agreeing before running up to her room to do as Izuku requested, while she
did that Izuku stood in the living room waiting for Hisashi to break the door down when
suddenly he sees the door start burning away before it’s all burnt to ashes and Hisashi starts
walking into the house. “I was wondering how long it would take you to think to use your
quirk on the door,” Izuku comments nonchalantly.

Hisashi gritted his teeth “Shut the hell up if you're not going to say anything I want to hear!”
he yells rushing towards Izuku going to punch Izuku in his face.

Izuku dodges the punch and sends a punch at Hisashi’s stomach making him step back a bit
and send a kick at Izuku who back away to dodge the kick and runs and jumps to kick
Hisashi in his face making him stumble back. Hisashi’s holding his nose from Izuku’s last hit
as he looks at Izuku but then removes his hand out of the way taking a deep breath before
sending a fire breath right at Izuku. It was a close but Izuku managed to get out of the way
with the fire only singing his clothes a bit but he was unharmed by the fire this go.

It was right at that moment of dodging the fire when two people arrived at the Midoriya
residence, “Izuku!” was shouted and Izuku knew that voice. He looked around and landed
quickly on the source of the voice which was his loud, abrasive, spiky blonde boyfriend,
Bakugou Katsuki.

Katsuki rushed in while Izuku saw Aizawa’s hair float indicating his quirk is active and
Katsuki sent an explosion right in Hisashi’s face as he shouted "Hands off my fucking
boyfriend!" promptly sending Hisashi into the wall.
Hisashi started to stand back up but Aizawa sent his capture weapon at him securing him in
his custody. Once it appeared that Aizawa had Hisashi under control Katsuki ran over to
Izuku’s side who was on his hand and knees with one hand grabbing onto the couch next to
him to push himself to stand. Katsuki intervened and put Izuku’s arm around him to help
Izuku stand up, when Katsuki looked down at Izuku’s legs he saw one with a burn mark on it
which was probably why Izuku wasn’t putting pressure on it.

“Izuku, are you okay?” was the first thing out of Katsuki’s mouth “Why didn’t you wait for
me?” he asks.

“Sorry babe but Inko called me and Hisashi was getting impatient, he was going to blame her
If I didn’t hurry and I didn’t want him to do anything to her,” Izuku explains.

Katsuki understands but he still wished Izuku would have gotten his attention “I would have
ignored what I had going on with my classmates when it comes to you so next time
something comes up please get me before running off.” Katsuki tells Izuku while pulling him
into a comforting hug.

Aizawa had been putting quirk canceling cuffs on Hisashi and just observing the two boys
after sending a text to Naomasa Tsukauchi about what had just happened when “I hate to
interrupt your sweet moment but I contacted the police and they will be here soon to take
statements and to take this guy into custody.” Aizawa tells them “Also, where’s Inko
Midoriya?” he asks.

“Oh, I told her to barricade herself in her room. I should probably go tell her everything is
settled now.” Izuku answers and starts going to walk upstairs when Katsuki pulls him back
and makes him sit on the couch.

“Or how about you sit down here while I go and tell her she can come out now,” Katsuki tells
him.

Izuku legitimately huffs out and pouts at that “Fine.” he tells him which Katsuki just rolled
his eyes at while walking away with Aizawa silently thinking that the scene he just saw was
admittedly cute.

Katsuki goes upstairs and informs Inko of the threat passing and she exits her room coming
back downstairs to the living room with the rest it was barely a minute later when the police
force arrived and they took Hisashi into custody. Sansa Tamakawa got the general statements
from Inko while Tsukauchi and Aizawa were also discussing what had happened. After Sansa
was done the ambulance was getting Izuku ready to go to the hospital to have his injuries
treated.

This wasn’t like the last time when Izuku was severely hurt, this time Izuku’s sitting up
straight and is getting looked at on the way to the hospital where they will actually treat the
injuries that Izuku sustained, with Inko and Katsuki riding in the ambulance along with while
Tsukauchi and Aizawa followed behind the ambulance.

The doctor treats Izuku’s injuries which were scattered cuts, burns, and bruises with a few
more significant injuries where it seemed Hisashi had stabbed Izuku in his gut and also hit
Izuku’s head so hard against the concrete he had a concussion and his head was bleeding.
Luckily it wasn’t so bad that Izuku would be staying the night, after they finished treating
him and prescribed him antibiotics and pain medication he would be free to go. Before Izuku
got fully discharged Tsukauchi had to go in and question him and he was able to confirm with
his quirk that everything Izuku said was truthful.

With everything being as hectic as it was, Aizawa told Katsuki that taking Izuku to their
apartment they levied in together for them to go rest would probably be the best thing for
Izuku to recover from the mentally and physically draining night they just had. Katsuki just
agreed and with no real comment took Izuku and himself home to their apartment to rest,
leaving Aizawa to have to go back to the dorms and explain what happened but that everyone
was okay.
Reflect and Wait
Chapter Summary

Takes place after Katsuki and Aizawa left the dorm building leaving class 1-A alone to
worry until Aizawa later returns to the dorms alone.

“Uhhh, what do we do now?” Mina asks unsure.

“Well, Bakugou told us we should remain here and it appeared sensei was in agreement with
that so we should listen to that.” Iida expresses chopping one arm up and down.

“Guys.. we really messed up today.” Kirishima says looking to Uraraka, Aoyoma, Hagakure,
Mina, and Iida.

“Wee…” Yuuga agrees.

“Yeah…” Mina adds agreeing as well while Uraraka, Iida, and Hagakure nod agree as well.

“What were you guys doing in Kat’s room anyway?” Denki asks the six.

‘Kat’? Kirishima mentally questions, “Iida and I were just coming along to make sure
nothing was messed up.” Uraraka speaks up.

“That doesn’t really excuse going into his room without permission though,” Shinsou tells
her.

Uraraka backs up a bit looking down and Iida looks to her concerned, “I think we are both
well aware of that by now.” Iida says placing a comforting hand on Ochacho’s shoulder.

“What were you guys thinking you would accomplish though?” Sero asks them.

“I don’t know!” Mina exacerbates, “We just wanted to know more about Bakugou and he’s
always purposely not letting us know things and it that doesn’t feel fair!” she shouts.

“I just really wanted to get to know Bakubro more, I felt left out and like he didn’t trust
me…” Kirishima explains before bringing his hands together and putting his head low “but
now I think I’ve really made him lose his trust in me…” he says a bit softer.

Sero sighs with closed eyes and hands on his hips before walking over and placing a hand on
Kirishima’s shoulder, “Kirishima” Sero starts and Kirishima raises his head to face him, “I
think you know you were acting out of line with him on more than just trying to get to know
things about him. You need to realize everything you’ve done that was not okay so that you
can apologize for it to Bakubro and Midobro like they deserve.” he says firmly. “Look man, I
know you were catching feelings and I know you got hurt during recent weeks. You should
talk to Bakugou about those things, I don’t think he was actually trying to hurt your feelings
but I also don’t think he knows he was hurting you like he did so just talk to him.” Sero tells
him, “Alright, man?” he asks.

Kirishima’s guilty and hurt expression was still there but there was also some determination
in there, “Okay man, your right!” he exclaims clenching his fist to emphasize meaning.

“There you go, man.” Sero pats Kirishimas back before stepping back sum to stand normally.
Sero then turns to the other five snoops, “Now while it still wasn’t excusable what he did,
Kiri’s reason I get. But what about you guys.” he says then turning to Uraraka and Iida
specifically, “Uraraka I know most the time your either following along because Iida is going
or your following along because your gossiping with Mina. And Iida, you are usually there
because you don’t want them to break things. I get that but did neither of you take a moment
to realize that even if you couldn’t stop them you shouldn’t have joined them either in
snooping?” he asks them.

Iida and Uraraka both look like there cowering a bit into themselves, or each other, but Iida
clears his throat straightening his poster “You are right Sero, we should not have participated
and we will be apologizing to Bakugou upon his return.” Iida says.

Uraraka nods, “As he said, we were wrong for what we did, I’ll apologize when he comes
back.” she says.

“Good.” Sero nods, now turning to Mina, Hagakure, and Aoyoma he just looks at them all
and sighs with a face palm “Okay Mina, you said you had decided to go into Bakugou’s room
without permission from him because you wanted to know more about him and it felt unfair
that there were things that he didn’t tell you, is that right?” he asks.

“Yeah..” Mina mumbles out.

“Aoyoma.” Sero speaks out catching Yuuga off guard “You have things about yourself that
we don’t know you would say, right?” he asks.

“Well uh, yeah bien sur.” Aoyoma answers clearly.

“And Momo,” Sero says turning to Yaoyorozu catching her off guard.

“Uh, yes Sero-kun?” Momo asks.

“There are things about you that we don’t all know, right?” Sero asks.

“Oh yeah, of course, there is. I figured everyone had things we didn’t know about them.”
Momo says a bit more confidently.

“See.” Sero says motioning at Momo and to Yuuga while looking at Mina and Hagakure as
well, “You three need to accept just like you have your own secrets so does everyone else,
and just because your friends that doesn’t mean you are entitled to them if they don’t want to
share them. Now you need to realize how what you did was wrong and come up with how to
apologize to Bakugou just like the other three will have to.” Sero tells them firmly.

“Okay..” Hagakure, Mina, and Yuuga all mumble out almost simultaneously.

Sero takes in a deep breath and exhales with a groan while closing his eyes before opening
them once more and Shoto walks over to him giving him a hug from behind which Sero
relaxes into closing his eyes and leaning his head back into the crook of Todoroki’s neck
“Thanks for the hug, needed it.” Sero mumbles to him.

“Of course,” Shoto tells him placing a kiss on his cheek.

The class eventually dispersed from being in the hall and in front of Katsuki’s bedroom, so
they were all in different areas in the common room. Mina, Hagakure, Yuuga, Uraraka, Iida,
and Kirishima were all standing up in the corner of the living room conversing about what
had happened, where they made mistakes, and how they were going to apologize. Ojiro,
Koda, Sato, Shoji, Tokoyami, Tsuyu, Momo, and Jiro sat around on the couch in the living
room talking to each other while Todoroki, Hanta, Shinsou, and Denki were standing talking
to one another near the buildings entree doors in the commons.

They were all worried about what was going on with Katsuki and Izuku as they didn’t have
any real context to what was going on so they could on try to comfort each other that they
were alright, it helped to know their sensei was with them to help as well. At this point, it was
around four-thirty in the morning and they were all exhausted but determined to wait up
when finally someone had returned.

Aizawa came into the commons room looking more tired than usual and if it wasn’t for the
black clothing the class probably would have noticed some of Izuku’s blood on his clothes,
he wasn’t that surprised to see his students still all up and awake, waiting. He sighed looking
at them all as they looked at him waiting to hear some news.

“First off, no one died or is in critical condition,” Aizawa tells them and the whole class
seemed to release a breath they were holding.

“What exactly happened sensei?” Momo asked.

“Yeah, what was that about with Midoriya,” Jiro asks.

“Bakugou told me Midriya was alright with me sharing what happened in the past and what
happened tonight but after I tell you, your all going to sleep. Go it?” Aizawa tells them. The
class as a whole all nod together agreeing to the terms, “Alright. So when some of you were
off campus tonight, Midoriya got a text from his mother telling him that his father was
released from jail and was at his mother’s house demanding to speak with Midoriya.” he
explains. “I can already see some of you thinking of questions, I’m getting there. Midoriya’s
father left him and his mother after his quirkless diagnosis and a few years ago his father was
arrested when his mother accidentally found out about his sexuality and told his father. The
man came back from his overseas job in America to drag a sixteen-year-old Izuku out of bed
for not being straight and to cut it short, Midoriya sent an s.o.s to Bakugou but when he got
there Izuku was already badly injured and had to spend almost two weeks held up in a
hospital as well as some physical therapy for his back due to significant burn scarring.
Tonight however this man didn’t get any advantage of Midoriya for something too serious but
Bakugou and I apprehended him after Midoriya had already tired him out. The man is now
back in a quirk suppressing jail cell and after the hospital looked over Midoriya, he and
Bakugou went to their own home to rest.” Aizawa finishes explaining.

The class is just almost all mouths open as if jaws dropped, they didn’t expect to learn the
green bean went through something like that. Some of them had already learned that Izuku
had been bullied in the past and some just had the idea that he likely was with the type of
humor Izuku seemed to express sometimes but the rest didn’t suspect that.

They all had their own traumas and things they had gone through before they met and since
they had all met but to class 1-A Izuku was new to the whole of them and some weren’t as
accustomed to changes happening so the sleepover tonight was a whole new thing with this
extra person with them. It seemed to have changed some things and now class 1-A would all
have to go try to sleep with this new information about Izuku’s past on top of the event that
had already occurred at the dorms that night and at the Midoriya home.

They could all only wait for the weekend to come to an end and for Katsuki’s return at some
point on Sunday where they could all ask about Izuku’s well-being as well as the ones that
need to, apologize to Katsuki.
Alright, Everyone Get There Apologies Out
Chapter Summary

Katsuki's back at the dorms now.

Katsuki made sure to return back to the dorms as late as he could and also took the extra
length of sneaking around the building to enter in through his dorm room window, which he
got permission from Nezu to do to avoid his classmates questioning him. So quietly Katsuki
snuck into his own dorm room and slipped under their covers getting to sleep until his alarm
clock goes off at six-thirty.

Katsuki groans turning off his alarm clock as he gets out of bed, getting out of bed was
always more enjoyable if he was walking next to Izuku so he didn’t like mornings in the
dorm like he enjoyed mornings at his apartment. He walked into the bathroom connected to
his room and took a shower before getting dressed and then getting his things together that
way he could still be the first in the kitchen grabbing a breakfast-to-go and out by seven-
thirty. The time that people started coming into the kitchen.

Katsuki took advantage of this by heading to class before anyone else that way by the time
people were near him it would be in the classroom and it would be time for class to start.
Which was exactly what happened when people filed in and Iida was going to speak to him
until the bell rang and everyone went to their seats as Aizawa entered the classroom.

But once lunch came around, Katsuki no longer had a choice as he saw two different groups
of people walking toward him. The first group was Shinso, Denki, Sero, and Todoroki and
the second group was Mina, Hagakure, Yuuga, Uraraka, Iida, and Kirishima. Katsuki took in
a deep breath and exhaled as they all approached him.

Denki intervened first “Hey man, wanna eat together and–” he gets caught off.

“Dude chill, it’s fine,” Katsuki tells him pushing his chair back and standing up.

“Um... Bakugou. Could we talk to you?” Mina asks hesitantly.

“Alright, everyone get it out,” Katsuki tells them.

“We are so, so sorry Bakugou!” Mina shouts first.

“Wee, we really are. We all crossed a line.” Aoyoma adds.

“Yeah, we should have never gone into your room without your permission,” Hagakure says.
“We felt left out in not knowing things that other people knew about you but that still didn’t
give us the right to invade your privacy. We should have come and talked to you first.” Mina
explains.

“Iida and I weren’t really trying to snoop we were kinda going along with it either way and
we shouldn’t have gotten involved at all and respected your privacy,” Uraraka says.

“Yes, we are both extremely sorry for our transgression,” Iida adds bowing as well.

“Yes, we are all extremely sorry!” Mina says.

Katsuki sighs heavily, “This doesn’t repair the trust you broke that you were barely getting
built and this doesn’t make what you did okay, but your forgiven.” he tells the five.

“Thank you so much Bakugou! We will work extremely hard to repair things with you!”
Mina exclaims.

After a few more exchanges the five started to leave them be knowing what was coming as
Kirishima finally pipes up, “Um, could we talk privately Bakugou?” Kirishima asks.

“Yeah,” Katsuki says flatley, he looks to the rest still in the classroom and they leave, leaving
Katsuki and Kirishima alone in the classroom.

“First I want to apologize for the way I have been acting since meeting Midoriya, I need to
apologize to him as well as soon as I can. I was letting my feelings cloud my judgment and I
was not acting manly at all. Then I want to apologize for crossing the line the other day by
invading your privacy and going into your room without permission.” Kirishima tells him
and then takes a deep breath, “The truth is that I kinda have a crush on you,” he laughs a bit
nervously. “Don’t worry though, I know you're taken now and that’s fine I’ll just have to
move on. I was just feeling jealous and left out, it felt like you didn’t trust me as I trusted you
and Midoriya just seemed so close to you and I wanted to be closer to you as well. When
Mina suggested going into your room I thought I could find out more about you too, I don’t
know, make you like me more. It was stupid and I crossed a line though and I’m really sorry.
You don’t have to forgive me and I understand if you and Midoriya don’t want me around
knowing I was crushing on you now.” Kirishima explains.

Katsuki just inhales and exhales taking in what Kirishima said and his own emotions and
thoughts on the matter sorting it before he spoke, “Your right, you did cross a line and the
way you acting wasn’t cool in any manner. But I can understand feelings clouding your
judgment, you're just gonna have to work on yourself with that. I should have talked to you
when I first suspected that you might have been crushing on me instead of letting it go on,
that was my fault and I’m sorry I should have explained to you that I wasn’t available. It
wasn’t my intention to hurt me but you also hurt me by crossing lines you shouldn’t have so
I’m sorry and I’ll take your apology as well.” Katsuki tells him. Kirishima seemed to let out
an unknown deep breath as his body seems to relax. “Like them, this doesn’t fix everything
your gonna have to work to build trust but you're forgiven,” Katsuki adds.

Now Kirishima really relaxes more at that, “Thank you man, and I really am sorry. I’m gonna
work really hard to fix things between us!” Kirishima says.
They talk a bit more clearing up some things before they joined everyone in the cafeteria to
have lunch. Katsuki was also texting Izuku about what had happened and how they had all
apologized. Since Izuku was in a good social mood and it seemed that Katsuki was in a good
enough mood as well too now he told Katsuki something to relay to his class.

So Katsuki got his whole class's attention, “The nerd wants me to invite you all over to our
apartment to hang out later after school today, down or what?” he asks. The class as a
collective whole nod at this and give verbal agreements as Katsuki texts Izuku that everyone
was up for it so Izuku started picking up and straightening up the apartment for guest.

Later on, after school when things had all settled and they were all hanging out over at Izuku
and Katsuki’s apartment with some having to find a seat on the floor or bringing in kitchen
chairs and their bar stools and conversing when a certain topic came up.

“So all this time, you’ve had a boyfriend that you lived with and none of us knew.” Tsuyu
said, not really as a question but as a fact.

“Yup,” Katsuki said nonchalantly.

“Damn dude,” Kirishima said.

Katsuki directed his gaze to Kirishima “What Shitty Hair?” he asks.

“Oh, nothing!’ Kirishima waves his hands up defensively “It’s just pretty manly has sneaky
you were just for the one you love.” he says resting his chin in his head while closing his eyes
and nodding his head as if to agree with himself.

“Oh.” Katsuki says relaxing a bit more “Thanks, I guess.” he says.

That’s when the rest of class 1-A decided to mentally flip their lid a bit because Bakugout
Katsuki said ‘thank you' what was next, an apology??

“Also,” Katsuki started catching everyone's attention once more “sorry about flipping out
when Izu was missing,” he says rubbing the back of his neck and looking away a bit from his
classmates.

The one’s mentally losing it were no longer mentally losing. Because they were now
physically losing it. Bakugou fucking Katsuki did not just apologize to them.
Either way, Shinsou was silently snickering at the exchanges between everyone getting so
surprised by the other parts of Katsuki that weren’t just aggressive yelling and threatening,
while Denki was looking over at his boyfriend in concern. Izuku was just comfortable setting
cuddled next to his boyfriend while smoking a wax-coated joint with Katsuki and some of his
stoner classmates.
Maybe We Can Rebuild, or Maybe We Can Build Something
New
Chapter Summary

A little later in the week, Izuku casually mentions something out of the blue to Katsuki
and they, later on, have lunch with someone.

It was later in the week when Izuku mentions it to Katsuki, Aizawa told them that Izuku
could come and visit at the dorms so he was having supper with Katsuki in his dorm room.
“So Inko said she’d like to have us over for lunch or supper sometime,” Izuku says out of
nowhere picking at the food on his plate.

Katsuki promptly spat out the drink he was about to swallow, “What,” he said.

“Listen, she knows she messed up on how she treated me and she wants to be more
acceptable to us. We’ve sorta been – talking recently since the whole thing. She’s apologized
to me about how she was when I was growing up,” Izuku picks at his food more with his
chopsticks “as well for outing me to him and what followed…” he added.

Katsuki sighed placing his drink on the table, “Do you really think she deserves your
forgiveness?” he asks.

“I’m not sure.” Izuku answers honestly “I’d like to give her a chance though and she does
seem to feel remorse for what happened and like she’s changed some. That’s why I thought
the suggestion for lunch or supper would be a good way to test the waters a bit…” he says.

Katsuki takes himself a deep breath “Alright then, we’ll have lunch with her and see how it
goes.” he says.

Izuku looks up from the plate he had been picking at with his chopsticks “Really?” he asked.

“Yeah, if you really want to,” Katsuki tells him.

Izuku and Inko would later exchange texts for the three of them to meet up for lunch
sometime in the next week. So when next Saturday arrived, Izuku and Katsuki woke up early
since they would have lunch with Inko this day.

They enjoyed a morning of herbal stem tea and pancakes for breakfast as they watched the
news. The two went for a jog around their block before returning to their apartment and
resting by smoking a blunt together while playing a game of Mario smash bros. After a while,
they took themselves to the bathroom to shower and freshen up to get dressed and ready for
lunch with Inko.
Izuku was dressed in a white button-up with the sleeves lazily pulled up and a tan sleeveless
sweater on top with khaki pants and a black belt. He had in all black jewelry with his
piercings except a few gold hoops and wore a gold chain necklace. Katsuki wore a white
button-up as well but with a few buttons undone and black ripped jeans and an oversized
black jacket worn on top. There was a silver chain hanging from Katsuki's pants belt loops
where a black belt was and he wore a silver chain necklace.

When they arrived and Katsuki parked the car he grabbed Izuku’s hand to give a reassuring
squeeze before they took a deep breath and left the car to walk to the door. They knocked on
the door and within a second the door was swung open by Inko who had an excited smile
“Hello boys! It’s really good to see you!” she seemed to move forward a bit opening her arms
before recoiling back and moving over for Izuku and Katsuki to enter the home. “Don’t mind
any boxes you see around, I’m in the middle of packing up things,” she explains as they walk
further.

“You found a new place to move into?” Izuku asks.

“Thankfully I have found a nice and affordable enough place to,” Inko says.

“That sounds great,” Izuku replies.

“It is. Now, let’s head to the kitchen shall we, I bet you boys are hungry!” Inko exclaims
directing them and then leading them into the kitchen. Inko directs the two to take a seat
where she then places a plate in front of each, both had different meals though. They looked
up at Inko about to give gratitude to see her fiddling with her fingers “I wasn’t sure what to
make but I knew katsudon was always your favorite as a kid and you always loved spicy
curry as a kid. I hope you still like them.” Inko says.

Izuku gives her a smile, “We do, thank you it looks delicious.” he says.

“Thanks.” Katsuki mumbles out.

This makes Inko smile as well, “Of course!” she then get’s her own plate that’s also a meal of
katsudon and places it at her chair before taking a seat. The three of them all give thanks for
the meal before starting to eat. “So how has living together been?” she asks with some false
confidence but both could hear the hesitance in her voice.

“It’s been good, we don’t really have problems except for maybe needing to get a bigger
place. We don’t argue about cleaning or groceries or having meals made or anything like
that.” Izuku says assuredly.

“Only problem I would say there is, is when you're up at almost four in the morning.”
Katsuki grumbles arms crossed.

“Hey, it’s not on purpose that I lose track of time!” Izuku defends.

“Izuku, you have to get in eight hours of sleep and have a good sleeping schedule,” Inko tells
him.
“I know, I know. I hear enough about that from Kacchan.” Izuku says.

Inko smiles “You still call him Kacchan too.” it almost sounded like a tease as she said it.

“Hey it’s a habit most of the time, and not always. Sometimes he’s an angry dandelion.”
Izuku says ruffling Katsuki’s hair.

“Stop that,” Katsuki says but he didn’t do anything to stop Izuku.

Inko sits back more relaxed in her chair “You two are cute.” she says with a smile.

That catches both Izuku and Katsuki off guard, “What?” Izuku vocalizes.

Inko went into more of a frown looking at her hands in her lap “The way I acted and treated
you because of something like the gender of who you love being the same as your own was
wrong. It was stupid. It was horrible. I shouldn’t have acted that way, I realize seeing you two
that I really don’t seem to have a problem with it. You two are a sweet and adorable couple
and I have nothing but high hopes for the both of you and I would really like to rebuild what I
destroyed.” Inko says with a soft tone, it was genuine and Izuku could tell.

“Your right it was shitty.” Katsuki spoke for Izuku who now looked like he wanted to
interrupt Katsuki as if to say ‘that’s not what she said’ or something but Katsuki ignored it.
“But it’s good you’ve recognized and owned up to that, now you can start earning Izuku’s
forgiveness. He might say he forgives you but I know he doesn’t really forgive you yet. So
until you’ve proven yourself fully worthy of forgiveness, there will never be rebuilding what
you broke, but you can start building something new with him. As for me, you never did
anything to me directly but you hurt the one I love, that forgiveness is gonna be harder to
earn from me than it is for Izuku.” Katsuki says final.

It was quiet for a bit before anyone spoke again, “I understand, and that’s acceptable and
completely fair.” Inko says.

The quietness returned again before Katsuki gave a “Good.” and Izuku let out a breath he
didn’t know he was holding. They eventually found the swing of a normal conversation and
all in all, lunch with Inko hadn’t gone bad.
An Author and Streamers Friends
Chapter Summary

It's been some time since the story left off where this picks up, what's with Izuku's hectic
schedules sometimes? Don't worry, he was already planning to explain when it came to
this point in his friendship with the class.

It had been some time now, Katsuki and his classmate's school year was coming to an end
and they would have summer break soon. Shinsou and Denki frequently tend to visit over at
Izuku and Katsuki’s apartment or they’ve gone to visit Izuku at work at the parlor even. Sero
and Todoroki will come along with them as well but they don’t come over as much as Denki
and Shinsou. The class will all hang out with Izuku on outings on the weekends sometimes,
often enjoying outings to the skate park while the ones that smoke partook and Izuku
sometimes joins the class for supper at the dorm building.

Something that they’ve noticed about there friend Izuku is that he has an odd working
schedule. They understood with working at a tattoo parlor you take on your own clients and
work out schedules with them but if Izuku had time he would be considered unavailable at
the parlor. Sometimes Katsuki just tells them that Izuku’s busy some afternoons or nights
even if that wasn’t during the week so the weird schedule was bound to be mentioned.

“Oh Mido, I was curious. What keeps so busy other than the parlor? Sometimes your busy
during hours that aren’t your available hours at the parlor.” Sero asks as he reaches out for a
chip.

Izuku was hanging out over in the UA dorm buildings this afternoon since he was taking a
day off. Izuku was sitting on the floor between Katsuki’s legs while they both held a gaming
controller. They were all sitting somewhere in the living room but all around the couch in
front of the TV, Aizawa was actually sitting at the table in the kitchen with Mina and Denki
helping them with some math they didn’t understand in class. Todoroki and Kirishima also
had a controller in hand, and with the question posed to Izuku Kirishima took the initiative to
pause the game for him.

“Oh, well I could either be doing one of two things.” Izuku starts putting up his pointer finger
as to say ‘number one’ before continuing, “This isn’t something to really spread around but if
you ever come across a book by the author Akatani Mikumo, that’s actually me.”

That’s when everyone’s attention was turned to Aizawa who had promptly spat out his coffee,
“Your Akatani Mikumo?” he asks looking at Izuku.

“Uh… yeah?” Izuku says hesitantly.


“Sorry, it’s just I thought the anonymous author was, well older, considering how
knowledgeable and informative all the books I’ve read so far are,” Aizawa says.

“Oh.” is Izuku’s response.

“Are they some really good books?” Mina asks.

“All of them are in the realm of the topic of quirks. He has many books written but a few are
like on the quirk theory, his own quirk theory, evolution of quirks, history of quirks, a guide
to analyzing quirks, review of quirk counseling, quirklessness, the difference between
mutation and amplification quirks, and many different ones that are part of a series of quirk
analysis of peoples quirks ranging from people in the past to some heroes and even villains
we have now.” Aizawa explains. “You are far more intelligent than I thought, Midoriya,” he
tells Izuku taking a drink of his coffee.

Everyone else, excluding Katsuki who’s just observing everything as a whole, went from
looking at Aizawa to looking at Izuku, “Uh, what guys?” Izuku asks a little uncomfortable
from the attention.

“Sorry, we don’t mean to stare that just sounds really impressive Midoriya-kun!” Uraraka
speaks up.

“Oh, oh!” Izuku responds, “Thank you.” he says with a smile.

“Wait, you said there was a second thing you could be busy with. What’s that Midobro?”
Kirishima asks.

“Oh yeah, so at first we didn’t want this mentioned because you guys didn’t all know about
us yet but I have a Twitch stream so that accounts for the sometimes wack schedule, and you
can hear Kat in the background and the whole chat knows his voice and that he’s my
boyfriend but he doesn’t show his face,” Izuku explains.

“To be honest I’m surprised that it’s been this long and it was still only Soy Sauce Face,
Sparky, Eye-bags, and Icy-hot that knew.” Katsuki snorted “Like seriously no matter how
much you deny it Izuku you are basically famous and once it’s revealed that your the author
of all those books your gonna be even more famous you realize right?” he retorts. “Akatani
Mikumo is already famous in the academic world just wait till they find out it’s a young adult
not some old man like so many people have theorized,” Katsuki tells him.

“Woah, that makes it sound even more impressive man!” Kaminari comments.

“Yeah, that’s so cool your an anonymous famous author, AND you're a famous Twitch
streamer!? What’s your channel, we’ll all follow!” Hagakure exclaims.

“Well, I’m not sure you could really say I’m famous…” Izuku started shrinking into himself,
he hadn’t had so many people looking at him so impressed before.

“Babe. We’ve been over this. We don’t even go to really public places without you wearing a
mask and or hat because fans of your streams have crowded you before. You are definitely
famous in the streamer community. And don’t try to debate about your books because they
are famous in the academic community and you know it.” Katsuki tells him, reassuring him.
“Also, the channel is called Broccoli Boy,” Katsuki tells the class.

There were a few turns of heads at that making Izuku come in, “I made the channel when I
was thirteen and the name got stuck.” he explains and there were a few understanding nods
and ‘ohs’ in response to that.

“His streamer and book career is why we want to wait before it’s complete public knowledge
that we are together though. That’s already gonna get him so much attention and add being in
a committed relationship with a hero-in-training or when I’m an actual Pro is only going to
add to that so I’d like to wait until we can get a more secured and safe living space for us.”
Katsuki explains and he sees as everyone nods understandingly and agrees to keep it between
the class.

The week after that, Izuku asked some of his friends from Katsuki’s class if they like to join a
game on his stream and that they of course could all stay anonymous. The ones that wanted
to join were Shinsou, Kaminari, Shoto, Sero, Kirishima, Jiro, and Mina. The rest said they’d
love to join another time, Katsuki was already going to be joining.

Izuku, or ‘Broccoli Boy’ introduced everyone with their own alias and Katsuki was still
‘boom boom boy’ to chat but they would use K.E.M when referring to him. Shinsou is
Insomniac, Kaminari is Pikachu, Kirishima chose The Rock, Jiro decided on Bass Amp, Sero
went with FlexTape, Shoto settled on being called Freezer Burn as Katsuki suggested not
caring too much either way, and Mina picked Alien Queen to go by.

They had decided to choose Mario Kart Tour for them to all play with and Izuku had helped
them set up their own systems and set up a discord call for them all. They actually played a
few rounds off-stream getting things set up before they finally had gone on. Izuku had also
made an announcement on social media announcing he was going to be explaining his
absence he had a while back but hadn’t felt comfortable enough sharing until now, which was
another reason Izuku was having his friends on stream with him.

“What’s guys, you already know who it is if you’ve clicked on the notification that I’m live I
would presume but if not I’m the resident broccoli head on Twitch I guess.” Izuku laughs a
bit awkwardly at himself, no matter how many times he does introductions it’s always weird
for him. “But before I go anywhere first I have some people that will be joining with today as
well as K.E.M. for some Mario Kart while we all chat about something, kay?” he asks to his
chat. Izuku waits to let replies come in which were just a bunch asking who the guest was so
Izuku proceeded, “I’m going to let them all introduce themselves, no one is using the real
name today although I’m sure that’s going to be obvious as they introduce themselves.” he
says.

“I guess this is the part where I come in now?” Sero asks.

“Yup!” Izuku answers.

“Alright sweet! You guys can call me FlexTape. I realize that sounds weird but trust me to us
the names make sense.” Sero says assuredly.
“I’m supposed to be going by Freezer Burn I believe?” Shoto says a bit unsure while the
others are stifling laughs you can hear over the headset.

“Yes, you are daddy issues.” Katsuki barks out holding back a laugh.

“Babeeee don’t tease, also don’t throw in another nickname,” Izuku says.

“Fine.” is all Katsuki answers with.

“And I’m Alien Queen!” Mina exclaims over the mic.

“I’m The Rock! Cause manly, right?” Kirishima rhetorically asks.

“Just call me Bass Amp.” Jiro chimes in.

“I’m supposed to be Insomniac they said,” Shinsou says.

“Then there’s me! I’m Pikachu! Or Pika-Pika! Whichever you decide!” Kaminari exclaims
happily.

Izuku had the stream showing only his face but he now has his face in the corner and the
game full screen for his viewers for them to get started in the game. “Alright so chat, most of
you are aware of the absence I had a few months ago when the only thing I told the public
was something had occurred in my private life.” Izuku sees all the chatters commenting that
yes they do recall, he remembers all the worried and concerned comments that touched his
heart. “Well, how about a few years ago when I took off streaming for about two weeks, and
when I came back I still probably looked quite beat up. I had gotten asked a lot of questions
about what had happened but I never explained.” Izuku says.

“Broccoli relax, so ‘chat’ looks like a lot of you guys remembered when that happened and
we appreciated that when we asked a lot of you guys backed off on asking questions. So
Broccoli head was putting hope that you guys would be understanding that he wasn’t
comfortable explaining then.” Katsuki had interrupted.

“But now I don’t really mind explaining it to more people 'cause I read many comments
expressing worry and concern and you guys really touched my heart during those times,
especially with what was going on at those times,” Izuku explains. “What had happened a
few years ago was my– I like to just say ‘sperm donor’ had found out about me being gay. I
had never planned on him knowing since I knew he was homophobic and he was already a
deadbeat dad that had left and abandoned my mum and me after he found out I’m quirkless
but either way he did. And I got a really not fun wake-up call from him dragging me out of
bed one morning, I know it sounds cliche but everything did seem to happen so fast.
Basically though, the man found his offspring being gay was reason enough to return from
overseas to beat the ever-living shit out of me. He left me with some pretty nasty burn scars
on my back and there's only so much a tattoo can cover, it can’t change the different texture
now.”

Katsuki was still out of frame but he was actually sitting next to Izuku this whole time so he
reaches over to put a comforting hand on Izuku’s shoulder, “You're doing great.” he tells him
quietly but the chat and their friends could hear it and Izuku’s muttered thanks in response.

“But the idiot didn’t know I already had a boyfriend at that time and he can be pretty
provetective~” Izuku looks over to Katsuki endearingly at that rather than teasing him for
being so protective of him “I had sent your resident boom boom boy an s.o.s. and he came in
like my own knight in shiny armor – but with explosives.” Izuku smiles at the small addition
to his sentence as he hears a few snickers over the headset.

Katsuki even laughed a bit a that and smiled some before saying a low “nerd.” with a grin.

“Of course, the ass hole went to jail, I ended up at a hospital for two weeks and had to do
physical therapy even after that. Except for a few months ago when good behavior somehow
let him get out early and his first idea was to show up at my mum's place demanding that I
come to speak with him. Now my mother and I admittedly have had our issues but at the end
of the day, I love her and don’t want harm to come to her. There were other things that had
been going on that night and I rushed off to my mother's and,” Izuku was interrupted.

“The Broccoli wore his tired old ass out so much it barely took anything to apprehend and
arrest him by the time I and others had arrived to help. Broccoli was a badass, he had to get
looked over at the hospital and nothing was serious so he was relatively okay.” Katsuki came
in to finish the explanation.

Izuku looked over at him with an appreciative smile before looking back forward, “I
wouldn’t consider myself a ‘bad ass’ but I know how to handle myself in a fight.” Izuku
moves around getting more comfortable in his gamer chair.

Izuku’s chat was flooded with support for ‘Broccoli’ for his bravery in sharing what had
happened and for what he did to try to protect his mother.

“Oh, my word….”

“But you're doing better now right??”

“I would have beaten him to a pulp if he tried to touch my mother!”

“All because of your sexuality!?”

“How has recovery been?”

“Could we see the burn scars?”

“If I could, I would find your dad and end him for you,”

“The mother of such sunshine and sarcasm should be left alone!”

“Your so brave!”

“I don’t know how I would have handled that.”

“Glad boom boom boy got his ass for us!”


“You are strong for sharing this!”

The question about seeing his burn scar made Izuku a bit uncomfortable but the majority of
the people in his chat were making him smile with support and encouragement and it helped
having his boyfriend at his side and his friends with him as well making him laugh so easily.
Guest Lectures and Unexpected Run In’s
Chapter Summary

A week after the class learns of Izuku’s streamer alias Broccoli Boy and author pen
name Akatani Mikumo, Katsuki tells Izuku that Nezu and Aizawa went to meet with
him and gets an offer sorta when an unexpected reunion happens.

Chapter Notes
See the end of the chapter for notes

It had been about a week since Izuku revealed to anyone in Aizawa’s class that didn’t know
that he was the Twitch streamer Broccoli Boy as well as the anonymous author Akatani
Mikumo. That wasn’t something going through Izuku’s head right now on a Friday afternoon,
what’s going through his head is how Katsuki had sent Izuku a text that read “Hey nerd, the
rat, and caterpillar wanna talk with you for some reason whenever my class has ended.”

He had no idea what this could be about as he walked onto UA and made his way to Nezu’s
office thanks to the help of asking a student in the hallway for directions. Izuku knocked on
the door and hears a “come in” so he does so being greeted by Aizawa sitting on a couch and
Nezu sitting at his desk in the middle at the back.

“Kat mentioned you would like to discuss something with me,” Izuku spoke.

“Ah, yes, Midoriya. Before you assume after I mention what I plan to mention, Aizawa did
not tell me this information I was merely watching security footage and learned this
knowledge and I do plan to keep it to myself for as long as you desire I do.” Nezu says, to
which Izuku already doesn’t know what he’s referring to yet. “Upon learning that you are the
author Akatani Mikumo–” oh is what Izuku thinks when that’s said “I would like to give a
proposition, or offer I guess, that you of course would be compensated for,” he tells Izuku.

“What kind of offer?” Izuku questions.

“We would like to have you give some guest lectures to some of the classes.” Aizawa tells
him “Since it’s not public knowledge who Mikumo is we thought you could just do them
virtually and if or when you reveal that your Mikumo it would be your choice to do a virtual
or in-person lecture.” Aizawa explains.

And oh, “Oh,” Izuku says, it sounded like a great offer he would enjoy, he really couldn’t
think of a reason to want to deny the offer. Izuku was about to express that he was interested
in accepting the offer, or proposition whichever you’d like to call it when there was a heavy
and hard knock on the office door.
“I apologize Midoriya, let me see if this is a quick matter someones inquiring on or such.”
Nezu explains “Come in!” he vocalizes to whoever is behind the door.

As soon as the large figure walked in, Izuku wasn’t even sure if he tried to hide his physical
recoil of seeing the man as if he was off-put by him, “Hello, I Am Here!” the large man
boast.

“Can we help you All Might?” Aizawa asks.

“Ah, Young Aizawa–” All Might was cut off.

“Just Aizawa or Eraserhead.” Aizawa interrupted.

“Right. Aizawa, thank you but no I just came to inquire from Nezu about my schedule when
it came to any summer classes.” All Might explained.

Aizawa was now getting a good look at Izuku at the moment and he can see how Izuku seems
to be trying to make himself invisible to the Pro Hero before him. People were always
excited to meet All Might unless they didn’t know who he was so his big figure has scared a
few kids that didn’t know him. Except there was no way Izuku didn’t know who All Might
was, and Aizawa was now thinking back to in class.

When All Might had come to help teach his class, on that first day Katsuki Bakugou had been
giving him side eyes and sometimes stared him down, almost looking like he was seething in
anger every time. Aizawa wonders was he actually setting in anger back them? If he was then
why and did it have to do with why Izuku seems so bothered by All Might at the moment.

“Ah, I can get you a printout real quick.” Nezu supplied him before exiting the office.

“I do appreciate it.” All Might tells him. Aizawa is still just observing Izuku but now was
giving his attention to All Might who had finally noticed Izuku in the room, All Might turned
to Izuku with his signature smile and said “Ah young man! I didn’t see you there.” he
laughed a bit “Now, who would you be?” he asks.

Izuku found his composer when All Might gave him his attention for some reason, but Izuku
felt a bit annoyed now, “You don’t recognize me?” he couldn’t help asking.

“Pardon, my boy?” All Might is confused.

“I introduced myself when we landed on the roof.” Izuku supplied, he wasn’t really looking
All Might in the eyes but he was now and it seemed All Might had remembered now.

“Oh.” was all All Might said.

“Yeah. Oh.” Izuku deadpanned with the annoyance in his tone very present.

“Wanna fill me in here?” Aizawa intervenes.

“It’s nothing Aizawa, it just turns out I’ve met this young man before.” All Might tried to
shrug off.
“I get that but he mentioned a roof, I’d like the full story that could explain why he was on a
roof,” Aizawa says clearly not about to change his mind.

“I can explain.” Izuku supplies.

“Please, enlighten me,” Aizawa tells him bringing a hand out to gesture before returning to
crossing his arms.

“Hold on, how old was I… Fourteen I think? Yeah, 'cause middle school was about to end so
that’s right.” Izuku had a hand on his chin as he thought but after concluding that was right
shook it off and stood straight with his hands in his pocket. “I was taking this tunnel that was
in, not the nicest part of town, and this sludge villain had attacked me.” Izuku started to
explain.

“I remember hearing about a sludge villain attacking a blonde middle schooler and another
middle schooler that was quirkless tried to help then All Might stepped in.” Aizawa supplied
confused about where this was going and trying to get to the point.

“Yeah, that was after this. All Might saved me from the villain and had put it in this 2-liter
bottle and he was about to take off but I wanted to ask a question of him so I stupidly grabbed
his leg when he went to take off. That’s how we ended up on a roof though, All Might had to
land on one so he could put me on the ground.” Izuku explains.

Aizawa hums taking it in before responding “Glad you know it was dumb when you grabbed
his leg but what did you want to ask so badly that you did that?” he asks.

“It was stupid,” Izuku responded.

“Most not have been stupid to fourteen-year-old Midoriya Izuku,” Aizawa tells him.

Izuku sighs at that, “I asked him if someone quirkless could be a hero.”

“And?’ Aizawa asks.

“And, what? He said no of course.” Izuku deadpanned.

“What the actual fucking hell All Might.” Aizawa’s gaze went from Izuku to All Might real
quick as he voiced this, and Izuku was not expecting that really.

“Hey, I said it a lot gentler than that and made sure he was okay before I left!” All Might
defended himself.

“Wait– before you left him? As in left him on that roof?” Aizawa doubles back at All Might's
words.

“Uh, kinda, but I double-checked he was okay before that!” All Might tried defending again.

“That doesn’t matter! You should have taken him to be looked over by a doctor right after he
got attacked in the first place to make sure he really was okay!” Aizawa shouted in response.
At this point, Izuku’s backed up from the two as Aizawa is now trying to go at All Might
while All Might tries, and is failing, at deafening himself from Aizawa. Thankfully, or maybe
not thankfully, Izuku wasn’t sure if he wanted them to stop fighting or if he was enjoying it,
but Nezu had returned with the print-offs for All Might.

Nezu cleared his throat, “All Might I have the print-offs for you. It appears you might want to
take them and collect yourself in Chiyo’s company.” he suggested.

“Uh.. yeah.” All Might accepted the papers from Nezu and made his way to Recovery girls
office.

Nezu lets himself sigh “Now what was that about, I was gone just a few minutes.” Nezu asks.

“All Might is a complete idiot.” is all Aizawa gives.

Nezu sighs again, aware he’s going to have to continue this conversation later on he turns to
Izuku, “I hope that scene didn’t affect your decision on guest lecturing here.” Nezu says.

“Oh yeah, it did,” Izuku says, not missing the brief panic on Aizawa's face. “But not in the
way you think, with Aizawa here I’ll give all the fucking lectures you want,” he says with a
smile. He concluded that he was not thankful for Nezu’s return to his office as he was
enjoying Aizawa trying to beat up All Might.

After the meeting, Izuku and Aizawa would go out to a cafe for some coffee, with what had
happened Izuku felt a bit mentally drained and so he wanted some coffee as well as smoke
which he got on the way to the cafe. Izuku was just growing to love the Pro Underground
Hero Eraserhead more and more every day the more he got to know his boyfriend's
homeroom teacher.

Izuku can’t help but wonder if he had met Aizawa that day and not All Might would he be
chasing the dream of a hero? He decides to ignore that and accept how things are, after all,
they weren’t really bad even if he wasn’t getting to achieve a dream of a hero, maybe he in
another universe was.

Chapter End Notes

The end of this fic is coming around, there will only be just one or two more chapters
after this, just coming around to full circle I guess. I want to say I've appreciated all the
kudos and comments I've been getting on this fic, it means a lot. <3

Also, we're just gonna pretend that the things that happened where Izuku helps save the
day cannon that it just worked out differently or it just doesn't happen since the timeline
is changed up with UA being a college university in this fic, lol.
You Said This Was Before the Boyfriend Reveal had even Came
Out Publicly?
Chapter Summary

It has been some time now and Bakugou and his classmates have already graduated
already now, Izuku and Katsuki figured they could the whole 'boyfriend reveal' soon but
before they got to that this happened.

Chapter Notes

I just wanted to note that information for Izuku and Katsuki's "childhood friends" in this
fic is being based on what I gathered from this amino page link:
https://aminoapps.com/c/my-hero-academia/page/blog/bakugous-childhood-friends-
introduction-post/xJYY_aXf2u6zrDgwm7v70M32NPo6awn8oN

See the end of the chapter for more notes

Izuku and Katsuki are twenty-seven now, and Katsuki and his class have all graduated and
are all now Pro Heroes. Izuku and Katsuki did get themselves a nice and secured home to live
in to help quell Katsuki’s worries about Izuku’s safety. Izuku is still guest lecturing at UA and
maintains a colleague to sometimes familia level of bond with Shota Aizawa, also known as
Underground Pro Hero Eraserhead, often making Shinsou and Izuku feel like brothers
almost.

Izuku and Katsuki are still close and in contact with Katsuki’s class, they all get together
when they can and people like Shinsou, Denki, Todoroki, and Sero are still unspokenly the
closes to Izuku and Katsuki. A good handful of them get to see each other quite often with
Kirishima, Mina, Hitoshi, Denki, Todoroki, Sero, Jiro, and Momo working at a Hero Agency,
Ground Zero, that is run by Bakugou Katsuki a.k.a Dynamight and Todoroki Shoto.

A year ago, Izuku let it be public knowledge that Akatani Mikumo and he are one and the
same which as Katsuki said would be a shock with how young Izuku is. Izuku also didn’t
have the typical appearance of an academic with all his tattoos and piercings but that was the
very thing that helped encourages others that didn’t have the stereotypical appearance of an
academic.

Katsuki has yet to have a reveal on Izuku’s streams and the two are always dressed to the ‘T’
in disguise to avoid media. Sometimes they were more dressed up than normal as to hide
their appearance and other times their appearance wasn’t that much hidden. So, the media has
caught on to the Twitch Streamer and Author of many valued quirk-related books and the pro
hero Dynamight hanging out together. The two figured they would do the whole ‘boyfriend
face reveal’ soon on stream, they weren’t sure when and how they were going to do it yet.

The couple was just simply enjoying things one afternoon when Katsuki was taking a break
from patrol so got in civilian clothes and went to hang out with Izuku at the Black Gallery
Ink & Piercers where Izuku was now a manager on top of being one of their piercers and the
tattoo artist. Izuku was giving someone a nose piercing when Katsuki arrived so he patiently
waited for Izuku to finish that.

The only reason Katsuki wasn’t getting bombarded by people was because Katsuki had been
in there many times where people assume he was either getting a tattoo piece or is friends
with the manager or owner. They don’t realize it’s because Izuku and Katsuki are together but
they purposely make sure not to show affection publicly right now. Basically, though it
happened so much that people are either used to it there or know about the parlor's strictly
enforced rule of leaving heroes be when they enter or else leaving the parlor.
Izuku finished the piercing and then gave his attention to Katsuki who then reveals that he
brought a late lunch for the two to share together. Luckily today was not a busy day and there
was barely anyone in the parlor so it was also quiet instead of going to the back, a really
hungry Izuku sits down and starts eating with Katsuki as company. Izuku did make sure to
check that Katsuki was eating as well.

That’s the current scene going on at the parlor, Izuku and Katsuki sitting by Izuku’s station
while they enjoy a meal together. Neither of them paid attention when the door opened up
and two young men around the age of Katsuki and Izuku walked in. That was until they heard
an “Oh shit, is that Bakugou Katsuki?” making them both turn their heads in the voice's
direction.

While it was possible to find out the identity of Dynamight as Bakugou Katsuki people didn’t
call out to him by his name, they shouted his hero name at him. So the couple was used to
hearing Dynamight shouted not Bakugou making them confused as the two men had started
walking toward them.

“The fuck…” Katsuki said under his breath.

“Hey man! You remember us right? Haven’t seen you since we all went to Aldera.” one of
the guys says, he has dark brown muddy-colored hair with a blocky smile and his fingers all
look nimble.

“Aldera…” Katsuki had to think “We went to school together?” he asked.

“Yeah, dude! You seriously don’t remember us?” the other guy said this time, he had short
black hair with a mouth full of canine teeth.

Katsuki shrugged and Izuku had to stifle back a laugh at that because Izuku now recognized
who these two guys were. Katsuki turned his head to Izuku a little, confused as to what he’s
finding funny about the current interaction. “What?” he quietly asks sticking his confused
head out more to emphasize the question with how low he said it.
The two young men only now take the time to look and see the other individual that’s seated
next to a standing Bakugou that they paid no mind to when walking in, “Yeah, what are you
laughing at?’ the sharp-toothed guy Izuku recognizes as Kemuri Hashiga asks.

Izuku ignores the guy and tilts his head to Katsuki, “You remember the guys you called
‘stretchy fingers’ and ‘chompers’ or ‘canine mouth’ back them?” he asks.

Katsuki has a look of realization before returning his head to look at the two guys in front of
him “Ohhhh, your those idiots?” Katsuki asks and both guys are taken aback.

“Well, we're not idiots but yeah you used to call us that.” the guy with brown hair and the
digit extension quirk that Izuku recognizes as Nagai Tesaki responds.

“Yeah. Sure. Whatever. What do you guys want?” Katsuki asks, he doesn’t want to bother
them in general but he wants to try to hurry them along instead of shooing them away which
his PR team was saying he had a bad problem with.

“Oh, nothing man! Kemuri here was just coming here to see about either getting a tattoo
appointment or doing a walk-in.” Tesaki explained.

“Oh, I guess that means I should see what I can do for you.” Izuku stands up saying this
whipping his hands on a napkin.

“Yeah, you one of the artists here? I’m assuming you are either an employee or frequent
customer with all the ink you have.” Hashiga asks.

“I’m one of the artists here, that doesn’t mean I’ll be giving you your tattoo for certain unless
you request that but an artist is allowed to turn clients down for whatever appropriate reasons
they have,” Izuku explains.

“Gotcha. Well, I actually already have a rough sketch on me that I got a friend to do for me,
it’s not exactly what I’m wanting yet but I was hoping to work with an artist on that before
getting a stencil and stuff.” Hashiga says pulling a paper with the sketch on it.

“Oh yeah for sure the artist can help you with that.” Izuku tells him and walks over to his
station grabbing a small flip-through binder and handing it to Kemuri “You can look through
this and see which artists style you like more.” Izuku says.

“Alright sweet,” Kemuri says starting to flip through the small binder.

Tesaki gives Katsuki a friendly elbow poke for his attention, Katsuki didn’t like that though
giving the action a look of disgust but not acting as Nagai gives a grin before speaking “You
ever wonder what happened to that Deku kid we used to tease?” he asks.

Katsuki looks the guy up and down as if sizing him up and Nagai got a nervous feeling like
he said something wrong but wasn’t sure what. “No, I don’t wonder because I see his ass
every day,” Katsuki says sticking out a hand and motioning to Izuku who just sweetly smiles.

“Wha–” Kemuri didn’t even finish his sentence, not that he was about to.
“Did you not wonder how this person knew those dumb nicknames I gave you idiots to
address you as?” Katsuki asks.

“Well no… we thought you likely had mentioned us to him if he was your friend…” Nagai
started out timid but then went a bit back to normal but with shock and confusion on his face
and in his voice. “Wait, you're seriously Deku?” he asks Izuku directly.

“I’d like to inform you that is not my name but yes I am Midoriya.” Izuku once again smiles.

“Well, don’t you look different?” Kemuri snorts.

“Yeah did you think getting covered in tats and piercings would make you cool or
something?” Nagai asks rhetorically.

Katsuki sighs face palming “Okay let’s just clear some things and get it out of the way, why
don’t we?” he asks.

“Huh?” Nagai inquires but isn’t acknowledged.

“Izuku Midoriya also known as the manager of Black Gallary Ink & Piercers and the famous
Twitch Streamer Broccoli Boy as well as the well-known author that previously went under
the alias Akatani Mikumo until last year. He’s got a name for himself and will soon be having
a different name for himself.” Katsuki starts out by saying.

Nagai and Kemuri’s expressions continue to contort in confusion as they both vocalize a
‘huh’ at that.

Katsuki grabs Izuku’s left hand holding it up to show his hand in view and then puts up his
own left hand “Soon to be Bakugou.” Katsuki says.

That’s all it took for the two old, not really childhood friends but sorta was, to freak out at the
news. Suffice to say that Izuku’s artistry style was the one that Kemuri had pointed out as he
favorite and Izuku debated long and hard about being petty but decided to be the bigger man
and Kemuri got a tattoo from Izuku who may or may not have only pretended to use numbing
cream as Kemuri had asked.

Back at home the next week while Izuku was streaming when it happened, Izuku just asked
Katsuki if he could bring him something to drink which Katsuki complied with and asked
placing a drink down leans over and kisses Izuku on his cheek, and walked away all in full
view of the camera.

That’s how Izuku’s boyfriend reveal was done that turned out to actually be a fiance reveal
when Izuku just sat there laughing at his chat that thought it was an accident that Katsuki got
in the stream and just said “No chat, my fiance meant to come on camera.” they were just
letting that play out before Katsuki returns in view and now everyone could see that Katsuki
Bakugou and Izuku Midoriya were engaged.
