    Summary

    Izuku looks contemplative for a moment, and then his face lights up, which means he’s got an idea. He turns to the entire common room and spreads his arms out wide, beaming and standing on the coffee table for good measure.

    “Oh, fuck no,” Bakugou groans, his face turning a little red. Denki grins; he loves it when people embarrass Bakugou. It’s his one and only reason to live.

    “Everyone!” Izuku yells, “if I may have your attention!”

    ----------

    Contrary to popular opinion, Bakugou Katsuki does care about people. He just has weird ways of showing it.

    And his friends? Well, they care about him right back. And now that Deku's finally his friend again? He's gonna show it, too.

    Or: Katsuki accidentally lets himself love, and ends up not regretting it.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    One of the reasons I love this story is because of chapter 16 where Kirishima gave Izuku a very nice shovel talk. Most BakuDeku stories don’t talk about that because it’s always Bakugou receiving shovel talks and being told he doesn’t deserve Izuku.

    Summary

    Katsuki was quite possibly the most stubborn child to ever walk the planet earth. While his unwavering nature could cause issues, it had also saved his life several times. His determination was boundless when well directed, driving him to reach greater and greater heights.

    Problem was, this wasn’t a height Katsuki wanted to reach. He'd gotten up here accidentally and he didn’t know how to get down. Or if he even should get down.

     

    In which Katsuki’s kidnapping goes ever so slightly differently. His classmates don’t show up to help him escape, All-Might is caught up in fighting Nomu and as a result takes longer to reach Katsuki after All for One teleported him away. Little things add up, and Katsuki's path as a hero is forever altered, for better or for worse.

    Summary

    UA, to prove that it’s still a school and not just a child-soldier-creational facility, opens up a new club: the literary club! But participation is weak, and the budget already accounted for a definitive anthology by the end of the year. So they need volunteers to submit writings, long or short, just to fill this quota.

    Coincidentally, Izuku and Kacchan have gotten themselves into some serious administrative trouble, again, which would normally require yet another house arrest. Except... Why make the punishment familiar if the school can just force them to collaborate on an original story for the literary anthology?

    Izuku and Kacchan combine heads to write an awful buddy cop action romance slow burn. It’s horrible, but what’s even more horrible is their forced time together spent writing this piece of shit, and Izuku’s terrifying realization that the stilted yearning he’s writing might be pulled from his own life experience.

    Summary

    "The king sent me to get you," Merlin said, with a tone that implied strongly that he wasn't rolling his eyes where Arthur could see, but just wait until his back was turned. "He said you're to get changed into formal clothes and meet him in the Great Hall, there's a delegation coming from the Summer Court."

    Summary

    Tony asks Stephen if he can see the future. Stephen agrees and provides a demonstration of the ways Tony's romantic life could go.


    "Considering the idiocy that you are prone to on the daily, it’s reasonable that you would be surprised at your longevity... Although, I suppose, that may have something to do with your… partners.” He gave a laugh and Tony frowned at the wiring in his hands, then turned around to look at him.

    “My partners? What, the Avengers? Well yeah, they’re a great team.”

    Stephen snorted. “I do not only see the future, Tony. I see multiple universes, multiple realities, ways that things could go, the way things have already went. Small changes. Large ones. You, Tony, have options as to where your life will go. Who you decide to choose to spend said life with.”

    Tony paused, then laughed. “Bullshit,” he said cheerfully.
    “Do you want to see?"
