Summary
Uraraka ended up winning in the end, and her controller floated away in happiness as she accepted the box of mochi as the prize. As Shouto stared at her dolefully, she laughed and gave him a piece, and a grudging Bakugou too, though she held the box protectively after everyone wanted some.
Shouto found his mind both wander and analyze everything yet again, taking in the cheerful atmosphere but thinking about how it was going away-
"Oi, spaceman," Bakugou said, nudging him. "You're spacing out again."
OR: Five times Shouto didn't want anything to change, and one time he realizes he has nothing to worry about.

Summary
So Shouto was- cleaning. Something he usually staved off for after he had finished his other priorities, but today it had been the first on his to do list. The second being: impress Bakugou's parents. Third: don't look like an idiot.
"The fuck're you sweeping for." Bakugou asked from the couch, feet propped up on the coffee table Shouto had just wiped.
Shouto whacked the All Might socked feet with the broom (sorry All Might), and Bakugou gave a nasty glare, rubbing his now sore feet.
"Dust," Shouto answered a beat later. Then, to reiterate: "and don't put your feet on the table."
OR: Bakugou's parents are visiting their new apartment, and Shouto doesn't know why he's so nervous. It's not like he's dating Katsuki, right?

Summary
"How's living with Bakugou?" Natsuo jabbed curiously.
The elevator whirred, as did Shouto's thoughts. Living with Bakugou... He thought about the films they'd watched and fallen asleep to, dinners they cooked and shared in high and low spirits, morning routines that clashed as they fought for the bathroom with neither the victor so they ended up sharing- Bakugou doing his skin care routine while Shouto brushed his teeth. Countless more moments, both past and to come, which in one word could be described as:
"Good," Shouto settled on saying, and he opened the door to his home. "Tadaima."
OR: Shouto’s family visits his and Bakugou’s apartment. Cue Bakugou frantically cooking and cleaning; enter Shouto’s realization of his feelings.

Summary
All he could think about was rice/rice/rice and how maybe, just maybe it was still salvageable but when he entered the hallway, he could see some smoke emanating from beneath his apartment door, a faint hazy thing that would escalate if not taken care of.
The key was inserted, the door was wrenched, and Shouto was expecting a fire and disaster and anything but an unamused Bakugou, still in his hero suit, standing by the kitchen and scraping off some charred rice from the stove.
OR: Shouto tries to cook Christmas Eve dinner, a three course meal to win Bakugou's heart. (He doesn't know he already has it, with it without the kitchen on fire).

Summary
The apartment was certainly spacious enough. And knowing Shouto, having not one but two cats would send him over the fuckin' moon with that soft smile of his rivaling the neighbouring star's beauty. For all that he was languid with certain responsibilities (read: laundry), Katsuki knew that when it came to things the other truly cherished, he would give his all- none of that half-assed crap he had pulled some years back.
And. Katsuki could envision it now, those heterochromatic eyes wide open with a childlike wonder so rarely expressed that when it was, he wanted to give Shouto the world so that the sparkle would stay there, telling him that he was love, love, loved. Who was Katsuki to deny that smidge of joy?
Alright. So maybe the cats could stay.
Both of them.
OR: Katsuki adopts a cat for Shouto's birthday... as do his siblings.

Summary
Struck with genius, he typed in:
Shouto
He stared in dismay as it said the username was taken. His head jostled up and down as Katsuki cackled with shaking shoulders.
"They even used my face as their profile picture," Shouto commented, clicking on the profile and seeing his face in all of their photos. "Is this identity theft?"
"Nah, this is a fan account," Katsuki sneered, looking half like he wanted to destroy the account and half like he wanted to look at it more. "There's probably loads."
OR: Following the advice of his PR manager, Shouto gets Instagram; Katsuki subsequently gets grey hairs at each post.

Summary
"They ran out," Katsuki said with a straight face, as if he hadn't delivered a metaphorical punch to Shouto's gut (he felt staggered anyways). "Thought we could make our own."
What.
Making homemade ice cream was a far cry from the instant gratification of a store-bought one, no matter how much better quality homemade would be.
"Are you sure they ran out?" Shouto questioned. If worst came to worst, maybe he would have to venture and brave the great outdoors of hell; hot pink biker shorts and sandals and all.
OR: A heatwave strikes Musutafu. Cooped at home, Shouto and Katsuki manage to make the most of it.

Summary
Shouto could hear laboured breathing and a grunt as Katsuki presumably bent forwards to snag at the bandage that spiraled around his ankle. Strained, quiet, panting as he jutted forwards and- a whimper that ended in a ‘fuck!’
“Shou, please, just- go,” Katsuki breathed out, and Shouto’s heart broke.
Turning around, he faced Katsuki, red eyes, red eyed Katsuki who looked like he wanted to scream and cry and break at any moment. It was an expression Shouto never wanted to see again, and maybe it was being selfish, maybe it was acting on his emotions, but he surged forwards to wrap his arms around his boyfriend in an act of something.
Lips beside an ear, whispering, “never.”
OR: Shouto deals with the aftermath of Katsuki's injury; the chores, the cooking and- Katsuki's spiral down, down, down.
(He manages, barely.)

Summary
"Yeah, says me," Katsuki said. His finger tilted up his boyfriend's face until they were staring at each other, eyes crinkling with love. "You're so fuckin' pretty, Shou."
Shouto thought there'd be another kiss after the sentiment was expressed. His heart was already beating faster as a response, and he even closed his eyes for a second. After two seconds, he opened them again to see Katsuki still frozen in that rare soft gaze of his. He grinned then, boyish and mischievous as he only thumbed Shouto's cheek before pointing at something on the table.
"Photo should be done, Halfie," Katsuki said, and their little world of two people broke into reality.
OR: Shouto finds a polaroid and knows exactly what he wants the first picture to be; Katsuki (surprisingly) cooperates.
