    Summary

    "What kind of a name is Deku?" he tried to sneer. It came out as more of a wheeze.

     

    Deku regarded him carefully. "The one I have given to you."

     

    A bell rang in the depths of his mind and his gaze sharpened—looking the boy over again. A strange boy with a strange name, playing in the forest alone wearing fineries. He shifted on his feet, and Katsuki's stomach twisted as the light caught his eyes. They seemed to glow in the sunlight—and his very skin was casting off the light. He understood now.

     

    Deku wasn't his real name. He'd probably never hear his real name, because Deku was one of the fae.

    -or-

    Katsuki gets trapped in a fae deal.

    Summary

    “Sorry,” Izuku said, wiping the gravy off with the back of his hand. “Um… this is —” Did Okami even have a word for squid? Gods, he was so unpractised. “Summer festival food,” he explained instead. “Y-Yummy.” To his own horror, Izuku began rubbing a circle over his stomach.

    Katsuki’s lip quirked, and Izuku prayed very hard for Nana-sama to lightning strike him into ash.

    Izuku’s shoulders sagged. “My Okami—”

    “—Is still atrocious.” Katsuki smirked, clearly revelling in the shock on Izuku’s face.

    Izuku and Katsuki weren't meant to become close. They weren't even really meant to meet. The differences between their clans — and the significant language barrier between them — should have ensured that.

    But nobody has ever needed perfect grammar to fall in love anyway.

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya has been missing for almost four years, and this time, he didn't leave a note.

    Katsuki, in the meantime, has been searching for him and working full-time as a hero. His mission for the last year has been to locate and capture the mysterious vigilante Zero.

    When he opens his apartment door in the middle of the night to a dying Izuku in a Zero mask, he doesn't know what to do.

    "Izuku?" Katsuki whispered.

    Izuku's eyes fluttered shut as he grimaced, curling into himself. He was holding his stomach. His black, deeply-shadowed jumpsuit looked darker where he was holding himself, a black pool spreading. He moved his hand from his stomach and stared at his scarlet palm.

    "I didn't—" He laughed weakly, red dripping suddenly from the corner of his mouth. "I didn't know where else to go. Kacchan."

    Summary

    Based on the ancient tumblr post originally written by tonystark-tm about a king making his soldier who can't go up the ranks his concubine so that the soldier can advise him at council meetings.

    When low-class soldier Katsuki is injured and unfairly discharged, he petitions newly-crowned King Izuku Midoriya, who he used to be a personal bodyguard for, to help him change careers. The scarred soldier changes armor and swords for silk togas and feather pillows and becomes the king's personal concubine.

    Izuku, who has struggled to gain control of his drunken council meetings rife with luxury and frivolity, is all too eager to have his friend at his side. Or...sitting on his lap, rather.

    Maybe he should have thought this through.
