Summary
“I’ll offer some incentive for your cooperation: if you can best me in a spar, I’ll show you something I know you’ll like.”
“You think you know what I like?” Lyney goads skeptically.
Wriothesley tilts his head at him and Lyney does his best not to squirm under that pale gaze.
“I think I spent enough nights putting you on your back in this ring to have a good idea. Or have you forgotten?”
—
(A year after his disastrous clash with the Duke of Meropide, Lyney is back at the Fortress with two goals: protect Fontaine from the rising number of Vishap attacks and avoid Wriothesley and their unfinished business at all costs.
Now if only Wriothesley would stop turning up like a bad penny.)

Summary
“You look at us,” Bakugou accuses, breath hot against his jaw, “both of us, and expect us not to watch you back?”
Todoroki shakes his head but can’t summon words, and Bakugou voices the fear that has been plaguing Todoroki all summer.
“No one looks like that unless they have a match.”
—
Bakugou and Kirishima share a Soul Mark. Knowing that should be the beginning and the end of Todoroki's interest in their relationship.
(It's not.)

Summary
“Kirishima,” Todoroki says, voice flat, “you do realize we’re Linked. Right?”
Kirishima nods, because yes—they’ve shared enough emotions since their bond formed to solidify that, thanks—but Todoroki continues.
“That means…” He rolls his hips to emphasize his point, and alongside the pleasure that stems from the contact is another, fainter, echo of heat. “You feel what I feel when we’re like this, too.”
“O-oh.”
“You know what I also feel?” Todoroki murmurs into his ear, “You, getting yourself off every night before bed.”
“WHAT?”
—soulmate AU where you feel what your soulmate feels (which leads to some embarrassment when you're a horny teenager with a super hot boyfriend)

Summary
Here’s the thing: it’s not a date.
It can’t be a date, because if Todoroki Shouto—the most socially oblivious person Bakugou knows—had asked him on a date, he would have noticed.
Conversely, if Todoroki Shouto—the most socially oblivious person Bakugou knows—had asked him on a date, and Bakugou hadn’t noticed? Well, he might just have to fling himself off the nearest cliff.
(Todoroki and Bakugou are two of the smartest students at U.A.
However, when it comes to each other, they are PROFOUNDLY stupid.)

Summary
“What are you supposed to be, a Poké Ball?”
“Excuse me?” Shouto blinks, for lack of a better response.
“Your hair,” the blond trainer informs, looking down on him like Shouto had offended him in some way.
He hasn't, not that Shouto can recall—and he gets the sense that this boy is one to leave a memorable impression.(Pokémon Gym Leader Todoroki tags along for Bakugou's Pokémon Journey—and develops a crush along the way)

Summary
There lies the crux of Todoroki Shouto’s problems, the true reason he’s found himself lost and wandering the back halls of a concert by himself: his friends, in all of their well-intentioned meddling, had suckered him into going out with them that night—only to set him up on a blind date.
Again.
(Todoroki hides from his blind date backstage at a concert and ends up running into the band's drummer. Literally.)

Summary
"What do you want?” Bakugou snaps when Todoroki catches up with him.
Todoroki makes a confused sound, a quiet one that makes him appear even more oblivious than usual, and Bakugou is definitely not endeared.
“I thought we walked home together.”
Goddammit.
“Was I wrong?” Todoroki asks when the other doesn't elaborate, and Bakugou scoffs.
Todoroki can think what he wants—Bakugou had fucking waited for him, okay?
(bakugou shows affection the only way he knows how. god knows todoroki needs it.)

Summary
“I'm sorry," Todoroki says, "I swore I wouldn’t, just—you're okay.”
Bakugou thinks his brain might have short-circuited. He feels lightheaded, heart jackrabbiting in his chest.
“Of course I’m okay—why the fuck are you confessing?!” he demands, only slightly hysterical.
(Todoroki is exhausted. He may jump to some conclusions.
Bakugou hates hospitals. They bring the sappiest shit out of people.)Series

Summary
“Katsuki, I didn’t realize you and Eijirou eloped without me,” Shouto announces.
Katsuki almost explodes the couch.
“We what.”
Shouto lifts his head from his phone and regards him, idly sipping his milk box.
“It’s trending on Twitter.”

Summary
"He might hate us after this,” says Todoroki, too honest once again. “But I can handle being hated, as long as he’s hating me and safe, back at school with the rest of us.”
Kirishima finds himself staring, opens his mouth to say who knows what, when Todoroki continues speaking, voice thoughtful.
“Though—I don’t think he could ever actually hate you, Kirishima.”
(todoroki & kirishima & their unshakable devotion to rescuing bakugou: a tribute)
