Summary
After yet another night of neglecting his own well-being, Midoriya learns that Kota has once again tried to sacrifice himself for a civilian. Pro Hero Mandalay reaches out for his help in talking sense into the boy. Izuku can only think of one person to help. With so much left unspoken between them, can they bridge the gap and reach Kota together?
--Katsuki reads between the lines of his friend’s careful words.
Can you help me talk about what we lost, Kacchan?
His eyes shut tight, fists clenching so hard his knuckles pale. His whole expression collapses inward, like he's holding back a scream. For a moment, Izuku thinks he won’t answer, that maybe he's pushed too far.
How the hell can he ask me this, when we haven’t even discussed it? Katsuki thinks.
Izuku waits, quiet and steady. There's a furrow in his brow, a crease of hope there that Katsuki doesn't have the heart to destroy. Just like that, all his frustration dissolves.
“If you really think it’ll help him…” Katsuki exhales, then opens his eyes. “I’ll go with you.”
He smiles and it's not the cocky grin of his youth. It's an assurance that the path to victory isn't too far away, and Izuku believes him.

Midoriya Izuku has never stopped supporting Kacchan from afar, even with all the unsaid things between them; Bakugou Katsuki has never felt more at peace or at home than on the stage. When his band, an up and comer called Ground Zero plays in his hometown Musutafu, it seems like nothing can go wrong. Except it does — spectacularly— for both of them.

Summary
Several quiet beats pass between them. Far away, the ruckus of the rest of the League echoes into the night. Everyone always goes buck wild after these meetings, all riled up.
Dabi holds his hand out. In the shadows it’s hard to see his face, even with Hawks’ eyesight.
“Light?” He offers again, flicking his fingers together. A tiny blue flame pops into existence in his palm and dances against the dark. It’s…sort of beautiful. Like a miniature star.
“…Yeah.” Hawks nods minutely and bridges the gap, stepping closer. He dips the cigarette into the small fire and lifts his hand to shield it from the wind.
Dabi shakes his head. “It won’t go out on its own. Don’t insult me, Birdie.”
Hm. Hawks isn’t sure if it’s the funny nickname or the first breath of nicotine, but he gets a head rush.
“Thanks.” He says, blowing out a cloud of smoke. Warmer already.
***
Or, where Hawks and Dabi start out as nothing, and turn into something, over time. It's complicated.

This is such a tantalizing mixture of dynamic character development, complicated relationships, love, smut, and eventual fluff-- If you like the ship DabiHawks, HotWings... whatever name it goes by for you, then this is absolutely the fic for you.

This is the perfect Denki character study. The ebb and flow of all the emotions throughout is MASTERFUL storytelling!!! I'm gonna be staring at my ceiling thinking about this one for a while.

Summary
“Will you be participating in the melee?” Shouto asks dutifully.
“... What’s the winner get?” Bakugo asks.
Shouto stares at them blankly for a long moment. “A boon,” he answers. “Anything the royal family can grant. A lordship, a position within the royal household, an advantageous marriage, what have you,” he says, shrugging. “Whatever you’d like.”
Midoriya looks troubled. “That’s a… really dangerous prize to offer, isn’t it?” he asks, biting his lip.
Shouto shrugs again. “I suppose it would be, if anyone other than a Todoroki won it,” he says flatly, his gaze bored.- Language:

Read the summary, look at yourself in the mirror and tell me you don't need this in your life. YOU DO. YOU REALLY DO. Mind the tags and the warnings, though.
