Izuku couldn’t help but fidget as he stood up, fingers curling against his too-long sleeves to tug at them lightly. He regretted not finding a suit earlier and giving himself time to get it altered, like Katsuki always did, but that was the least of his problems now – a too-big jacket was nothing on the haggard-looking woman standing ac...

Katsuki frowned slightly, tapping on the link to open it. He really shouldn’t have, considering Denki’s history with link-sending and catching people out with shit they didn’t want to see, but he couldn’t quite resist the cryptic words. When the page loaded, though, he couldn’t decide if he was incre...

Katsuki leaned carefully over the railing, tying the last little knot in his fishing line, then stepped back to survey his handiwork. He’d had to visit three different stores to find exactly what he wanted, to make sure they’d all match well enough when they went up as a set, but he was satisfied he’d managed to finally make it work.
“How’s it look?” he called, looking down at ...

Hiroki seemed oddly twitchy as they headed into the building, clinging to Izuku’s hand in a way he’d never really done before. Despite Ryouji being right by his side, holding his other hand, he never moved away – and Ryouji, to his credit, never tried to make him. Izuku had expected them to be more excited, training together for the first time, but instead Hiroki just seemed... shy. A...

Izuku shifted his grocery bags to one hand, freeing up enough motion to wave goodbye as he left the store, giving the old lady at the counter the biggest smile he could manage. She had always been so sweet to him, from giving him and Kacchan candy when they came in with their parents as kids, to asking him all about his school classes and club activities now. He’d just dropped in for five minutes to grab some stuff his mother wanted for dinner, but he’d ended up chatting with her for an e...

Izuku froze when Imiko smiled at him sweetly, perching on the corner of his desk and folding her hands neatly in her lap. It really was quite remarkable the way she made it look so effortless, like everything about her was just perfectly elegant without even trying. He supposed that was a good thing, though. Katsuki was much the same, after all. He didn’t like it when people saw him try, it had to look like it was all easy.
“Good morning, Midoriya!” she said brightly, eve...

The more annoyed Katsuki got, the more torn Izuku felt. He was finally getting attention again, with all his praise and compliments and the starry-eyed looks he no longer tried to hide, but it wasn’t exactly good attention. He’d known going in that that was a possibility, but on some level he’d still kind of hoped that maybe Katsuki would appreciate it. When Imiko flirted she got smirks from him in return, or at least he stood up a little straighter, but when Izuku...

Katsuki grunted as he let the bar land back on the stand, taking a moment to just let his arms fall to his sides and relax. With his headphones turned up loud, shutting out the rest of the world, he’d managed to just fall into his zone and forget about everything else, relishing the dull burn in his muscles. He’d been too static over the past few days, had spent too much time either sitting on a bus or hunched over a sewing machine – or both – and he’d gotten all stiff as a result. ...

“I’m so glad we have a few days in one place!” Ochako sighed with relief, kneeling on the sofa to watch the hotel carpark roll into view. “Don’t get me wrong, I’m having a blast, but I’m so keen to just get in a real bed and sleep uninterrupted.”
“We still have events to do,” Aizawa reminded her, glancing over at Tenya and the clipboard hugged to his chest.
“But not until Wednesday!” she objected.
“Granted, but I don’t want you a...

“Be on your best behaviour, stick to the plans, don’t go off-script, and-”
“I know, you old hag,” Katsuki scowled. “I know how to do my damn job.”
“I’m serious, brat. If you screw this up, we might never get to work with them again. Or anyone else, for that matter.”
Katsuki bristled, but it was surprisingly difficult to keep his scowl in place – as much as he hated to admit it, he knew his mother was right. If he gave in and let himself fanboy ...

Izuku sneaked a look around the lobby as they entered, scanning all the faces, but his eyes never landed on that familiar little frown and those piercing red eyes. He tried his best not to let his disappointment show, but considering how much effort he had put into just convincing Aizawa to take him along, he couldn’t help but feel it. Tenya was there too, of course, always ready with the paperwork or to fetch Aizawa whatever he needed, so at least it was a chance to spend some tim...

Katsuki couldn’t keep his eyes off the familiar face as they walked, everything Aizawa said to them going in one ear and straight back out the other one, with no stops in between. If they were warnings or requests about behaviour and no-entry zones, the old hag would remind him a thousand times anyway, so it wasn’t like it really mattered.
Deku was sitting at a little table, only metres away from him, with a line of giggling girls and embarrassed dudes waiting patiently for their tu...

“You new here, sweetie?”
The woman had to yell to be heard over the pumping, pounding music that filled the room. Izuku felt too awkward to yell back in a crowded entrance, so he just smiled sheepishly, nodding.
“You’re gonna love it!” she assured him, holding his bicep lightly to lead him through the crowd. “I’m Nomi, everyone here is super friendly, we’re here every weekend if you want to join us!”
When they got closer to the bar, the music was slight...

Hizashi was already awake when Izuku stepped out of his tent, and for a moment he just stared, blinking at him in surprise. He wasn’t used to having other people around in the morning, it was weird to not just find a silent, solitary, farm or forest outside his door – well, flap.
“Good morning!” Hizashi said brightly. “There’s scrambled egg for you by the fire, I put a little surprise in them.”
Izuku hurried over to look, grinning when he found finely chopped mushroo...

Izuku wasn’t sure he’d ever seen Eri as excited as when she ran up to the Tsunotori farm, already waving at Izuku and Pony. For days she’d been begging to join him for a ride, and finally Pony had decided Izuku was ready for it, ready to venture out beyond the fenced-in yard without Pony right by his side.
“If anything goes wrong, you listen to Eri,” Pony instructed, a little teasingly. “She’s been doing this a lot longer than you!”

Katsuki glanced over when he heard Yoshiki stir, lowering his book and waiting. After a moment, Yoshiki’s eye blinked open, and he lifted his fist to rub at them.
“Need anything?” Katsuki asked.
Yoshiki shook his head, snuggling back down into his blankets, but keeping his eyes open, this time.
“Thanks for staying,” he mumbled.

Katsuki rolled over with a groan, reaching for his buzzing phone. Izuku was long-since off to work, leaving Katsuki alone, cold, groggy and cranky, in the bed alone. He hated to admit he was such a sap, but he really did hate the days he woke up without Izuku beside him.
“Hello?” he yawned.
“Am I speaking with Mister Bakugou?”
“You are.”

Katsuki frowned when his phone rang, picking it up to look at the screen. If it was a call about an urgent job, he’d undoubtedly have heard about it on the TV he had running as background noise. Izuku was long-since home, sound asleep upstairs, so it wasn’t a call about him either. Instead, he was stunned to see an old family photo light up the screen, a hilarious shot of him and his mo...

Happy Bakugatsu! I had to go with more than one image to fit this month's schedule on it 😛
As usual, this month my aim is to post every day until Katsuki's birthday - schedule is subject to change depending on Life™ but I'll be doing my best to keep up!
You'll see a new Ace fic for International Asexuality Day on the 6th, a birthday-themed fic on the 20th, and a brand-new multi-chapter fic that begins in week two!
I hope you all have a great April, and enjoy all the con...

It felt weirdly nostalgic to spend his morning on the Chimura farm, harvesting crops into a stack of buckets that had grown even taller while he’d been gone. He hadn’t been away that long, but everything seemed to have changed, grown bigger and more incredible. He was glad he’d been able to play a part in getting it established, but Aizawa and his little class of schoolkids were really the ones who deserved the credit. He hoped those kids never had to worry about their next mea...

Unlike Katsuki, Izuku knew the names of all his classmates. Katsuki only ever bothered to memorise the important ones – few as they were – but Izuku made a point of knowing them all, just in case. He was friendly to everyone, greeted them by name if they passed in the street on the weekends, and knew all their birthdays as well! He always left a cupcake on their desks early in the morning on those days, or on the last day of school if someone had a birthday during a brea...
