    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya takes the same train to and from school Monday through Friday, morning and night. His only company during these lonesome hours comes in the form of another boy his age—a teen with scarred hands and blood gem eyes, a stranger with ash-blond hair who walks in a shroud of danger and mystery.

    "Would you stop with that fucking muttering, idiot?"

    And before Izuku can find his footing, his life becomes a full-blown collision course thanks to walking cannonball Katsuki Bakugou.

    (And along the way he may have found the missing fuel to his fire).

    Summary

    Let's make a promise.

    A promise that I’ll always be there for you, and you’ll always be there for me.

     

    Katsuki and Izuku have been best friends their whole lives. Nothing could ever change that. Katsuki wouldn't let it change.

    Summary

    Is a twisted bond really so twisted when it once felt like everything? What is happiness, anyways? What kind of hero can Katsuki even be in this sort of society?

    Or,

    “I mean to say…well, do you see Izuku as a person?” Shouto Todoroki had asked him, "I think you see him as a symbol to strive towards. To chase."

    …And promptly turned the next 4 years of Katsuki Bakugou's life upside down.

    "What kind of hero are you without Izuku Midoriya?"

    And just what is heroism, anyways?

    OR—Izuku insists he has everything he wants. Katsuki can’t say the same about himself. So, he’s going to find his birds and make them sing, even if he has to force them, dammit!

    Summary

    “How much English do you know?”

    Izuku joined him on the floor. “Basic phrases, some verb conjugations. I could probably introduce myself and ask a few questions.”

    Katsuki flashed him a smug look. “So nothing important.”

    Izuku suppressed the urge to smack the back of Katsuki’s head, thinking resolutely of his Pros and Cons list.

    ***

    Katsuki is fluent in English. Izuku wants in. Unfortunately for all parties involved, learning a language takes a bucket of time, a spoonful of consistency, a gratuitous pinch of motivation and several large helpings of persistence. Too bad they forgot the communication.

    Alternate title: how creative can Bakugou get with his insults before they turn into terms of endearment?

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya is great at English class,
    Katsuki Bakugou is, for the first time in his life, failing.

    On the flip side, Katsuki has had his first kiss.
    Izuku has not.

    Things get a little confusing after that.

    OR: Izuku tutors Katsuki in English, Katsuki tutors Izuku in kissing, and both of them are simply awful at all things feelings.
