    Summary

    Izuku watches long fingers slowly reach out of the glass, wrapping themselves around the mirror’s edge as the man steps into real life. It smells like sugar and smoke. The clouds follow him out as he bows his head to fit his deadly-looking horns through the frame, red tattoos glowing faintly all over his bare torso and half onto his leathery wings. He makes the rest of the room seem dimmer just by standing in it. Molten metal eyes bore into Izuku’s, paralysing him as he kneels on the floor in front of this beautiful, terrifying apparition.

    “I summoned you because want a boyfriend,” Izuku says and then winces at the shallowness of his own request. “I mean, I want to fall in love. I want to be assured that I’ll find someone someday who’ll love me the way I love them. Who isn’t grossed out by me. By the way I am.”

    The demon tilts his head. "I offer you a place at my side. You want companionship? I give it in exchange for your soul.”

    Summary

    It was customary for every child to be assigned a token, short for bride token or bride price, at their coming of age ceremony that was held once a year for the entire village. Everyone who had turned 18 since the last ceremony was welcomed into adulthood and their worth for the village and their family was judged.

    Bakugou Katsuki was the village's pride and joy.

    Midoriya Izuku wasn't.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I come back to this one over and over because I love a good “realizes what you lost” moment

    Summary

    “Will you marry me?” Izuku heard that much before Shindo continued talking.

    Izuku watched Shindo and he could feel his stomach curling, twisting with questions and anxiety. He felt nauseous and hot in the middle of the crowded room. He couldn’t seem to keep his focus on the kneeling man, his eyes didn’t move but his vision seemed to cloud.

    They were practically yanked into focus though at a movement across from him, and it drew his gaze up to a sharp point. Wide, red eyes.

    Kacchan was there, he was there for Izuku just like he always was.

    ~~

    Izuku and Kacchan are hero partners, roommates, and friends. Izuku is more than happy with his life until his boyfriend gets down on one knee at a party, but all Izuku sees is Kacchan standing behind the man proposing, and he rethinks everything.

    Summary

    Everyone assumes pro hero Dynamight and infamous UA-teacher-slash-pro-hero Deku have been together for the longest time, but the thing is, they aren’t even dating, and Katsuki hasn’t even grown the balls to confess yet.

    So what do their ever supportive and encouraging classmates do? Help Katsuki plan out the perfect confession to Izuku.

    The only problem? So many rumors are starting to spread all at once. Also, they barely have any free time, and Izuku has papers to grade.

    Summary

    The words that bloom on Katsuki’s arm are painfully familiar, to the point that he can hear the grating, wobbly voice saying them in his ear. They’re specific in a damning way, but at the same time vague enough that it could be someone else who says them. Someone he still has to meet in a situation that hasn’t yet occurred.

    …Okay, so that’s a bunch of bullshit and he’s not pathetic enough to cling to desperate hope like that for too long. But he’s got some time to convince himself it’s possible his soulmate is someone else. Anyone else.

    Deku’s birthday is still a few months away, after all.
