    Summary

    After Hua Cheng is called in to do a rather simple task at a rather decrepit home, he finds himself replacing more than just the carpet in Xie Lian’s home—for example: the stove, the cabinets, the walls, the roof, and his heart (in Xie Lian’s hands).

    Bakugou hated being touched, but he found himself asking the most affectionate person he knew to hug him. Just so he could prove to himself it was not that great.

    Summary

    Kirishima, realizing he's going to be stuck alone in the dorms on Valentine's, manages to take Bakugou out on a date (though Bakugou will never, ever call it that). Part of the deal is that Kirishima is going to buy some soda cans for Bakugou to blow up after dinner, but when they get to the store they happen to walk into a stickup. Bakugou runs the risk of getting shot, so Kirishima takes two bullets for him while hardened, and one when he's not.

    Summary

    “You’re the first guy friend I’ve had that I can just like, be friends with. You’re either the most unthirstiest boy ever...” Camie shrugged and made another wobbly illusion appear between her hands. It looked like a sparkly rainbow with the word ‘friendship’ beneath it, accompanied by what Bakugou assumed was supposed to be a twinkling sound effect, but it had a tinny quality to it and sounded far away. “...or I just ain’t got the kinda straw you like to ssssip.

    Carefully, Bakugou considered the strange turn this conversation had taken.

    He had never been asked, point blank, if he was gay before. And he honestly had never thought about how he would respond. Lying about himself didn’t sit right with him. But he’d always wanted to wait until he was the number one hero - when he stood above everyone else - before coming out. Though he’d had times when he’d thought about doing it before then and had almost gone through with it once. But being the number one hero came first. It wouldn’t matter what people would say about it then as long as he’d risen to the top.

    Bakugou knew his lack of a response would give Camie all the answers she needed.

    Summary

    Not for the first time, Eijirou wonders what it’d feel like to kiss him.

    This time, he can’t stop thinking about it. It’s a little whirlpool in his head that just keeps spinning and he tries not to lose himself in staring too hard. He knocks his gaze back down to his books but it doesn’t last long before he’s looking up again.

    And this time, Bakugou’s looking back.

    ((AKA: Eijirou is absolutely smitten with Bakugou, and thinks it'd be nice to kiss him.))

    Summary

    When a rare picture of Bakugou smiling leads Class 3A to believe he is in a relationship with Utsushimi Camie, a contest arises to see who can get the most pictures of the couple together.
    ***
    “Umm,” Midoriya said nervously. “I-it’s Kacchan. There is always a spark.”

    With another round of boos from Kaminari and Jirou, Ashido took a page out of Mineta’s playbook and started shaking Midoriya violently. “I mean like a romantic spark!”

    Midoriya blanched. “You think Kacchan is interested in Utsushimi?”

    He seemed doubtful, so Ashido shoved Kirishima’s phone in his face. “Do you see this smile? That is the smile of boy who is head-over-heels smitten, am I right?”

    Midoriya actually took the time to look at the picture critically, though he shot an uneasy look towards Kirishima before he answered. “Umm, y-yeah,” he said as he started to back away, hiding behind Uraraka like a shield. “It definitely looks like Kacchan is in love.”

    How could Kirishima have been so stupid?

    Summary

    Now that he had turned his face completely he could see that this clear manifestation of anger itself was possibly the hottest guy Kirishima had ever laid his eyes on. His stare intense, eyebrows furrowed and his arms barely hidden by a simple black sleeveless shirt. The blond spiky hair only made him look more fierce and that really didn’t help Kirishima’s case at the moment.
    Chemistry now was probably the last reason why he really thought he was screwed.

    --------------

    or, university au in which Kirishima really hates chemistry and gets to meet Bakugou in the process.

    Summary

    Kirishima had always been an affectionate person. He was all sunshine smiles and red hot emotions that burned so bright it could blind you. He was easy to read, not one to hide his frustration, and always one to show off his radiant grin. It was like honey, so sickly sweet that it burned on the way down Bakugou’s throat.

    That’s why it wasn’t surprising to him or to much of anyone else that Kirishima was a touchy person. Not in a threatening way, more of a sort of confirming way. As they had grown older, it had only gotten more prevalent.

    Or//

    Bakugou is too scared to admit to Kirishima that he is in love with him, especially when Kirishima treats all their friends like he loves them equally. Bakugou want to be special to him, but he cant admit that to himself or his best friend.

    Summary

    It was starting to be insanely hot, Eijirou tripped so often that he was almost walking on all four at this point, his hands were all scratched from the rocks, his clothes dusty and in disarray, and to make things worse, the volcano was mocking him with an uneven slope that made him think the summit was close only to reveal another one further up.

    Kirishima's peaceful life on his volcanic island is put to an end when the dormant Mount Bakugou comes back to life, each eruption getting closer to the village and the crops. As panic starts to spread, people remember the old god of the volcano and the ancient tradition to offer him a sacrifice.

    Kirishima doesn't buy any of this, but the older villagers seem serious. So before they kill someone in the name of a god that might not even exist, he decides to climb the volcano himself, hoping to find out what causes the eruptions.

    Summary

    … It wasn’t that he was annoyed.

    Okay, maybe he was a little annoyed, but that was just the lack of sleep talking. Because a certain explosive punk thought it was a good idea to test the flammability of his sheets at 2 in the morning. Every single morning.

    (In which Bakugou's quirk wakes Kirishima up, and Kirishima gets way too invested in his bro's well-being.)

    Summary

    Kirishima leans forward, agonizingly slowly, until his nose is brushing Bakugou’s. His eyelids are half closed, and if Bakugou concentrates he can see the outline of the pink scar on the corner of his right eye. Pink again. Pink scars on his skin when he wears his hero costume, pink highlights in his hair while hiking in the woods, pink hands clutching his desperately in a small hospital room.

    Or, a study in the colors of a hero's life featuring Kirishima Eijirou, as told by one incredibly disgruntled and disgustingly in love Bakugou Katsuki.
