~MY HERO ACADEMIA FIC RECS PART 2~

appassionato (for a halcyon winter) by bonnia (oneshot // 29k)

“That boy…” His mother gives him a tired smile. “The music he plays is incredibly sad, isn’t it?” Shouto blinks, because Bakugou’s music has never made him feel anything but an inexplicable feeling of freedom. But that’s the beauty of it, he supposes — that the meaning of music lies in the ears of its beholder. “I don’t know,” he answers honestly. “But I think it’s beautiful.” (or: todoroki shouto is a pianist who had sworn never to play the piano again, and bakugou katsuki is the unpredictable maelstrom of a violinist who turns his monotonous world upside down)

TW: Vague descriptions of terminal illnesses and child abuse.

Genre: Angst, Hurt/Comfort

TODOBAKU, AU: No Quirks, Todoroki Shouto-centric

The FEELS. Oh shit, they hit me like a truck. I cried while watching Your Lie In April and I cried while reading this. I am in love with this fic and the idea of musicians!todobaku occupies my brain 24/7.

2. Alcohol Speaks Louder Than Words by CelticMoone (incomplete // currently at 6k)

“I don’t think so,” his dad said, wiping his chin with the back of his palm to rid himself of the dribble of wine that fell from his lips. “And why the hell not? You feeling threatened?” Katsuki challenged. Hitoshi was sure he was delirious at this point. There was no way in hell he was sitting in his father’s home, listening to Katsuki drunkenly argue for his hand in marriage. That just didn’t compute. Damn, he’d really have to apologize to Denki for all the times he’d teased him for frying his brain. Hitoshi now knew exactly what it felt like and, man, oh man, was it literal torture. “I shouldn’t be the one afraid of threats, Bakugo. If you so much as lay an unholy finger on my son I will make sure your life is a living hell.” His father’s words were chilling. His face sported a less than comforting grin, hands folded neatly under his chin. OR Katsuki and Hitoshi get married whilst drunk, much to Aizawa's chagrin. Come join my brainrot in attempts to see how this will play out :)

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Fluff & Smut

SHINBAKU, Drunken Confessions, Getting Together

Adorable. These idiots are whipped for each other and Aizawa Suffers because of it lol.

3. To Watch You Fall (is a beautiful thing) by ChaoticHeart (complete // 62k, 10 chapters)

Aizawa has witnessed many relationships bloom over the course of his years teaching at U.A. In the end, whether these relationships last or not doesn’t matter to him. He has never been invested in the romantic endeavors of his students, and it’s easier to view their relationships with a sense of detachment, knowing that many of them will inevitably crash and burn. They’re all so young- they’ll get it right eventually, he would say to himself. But this… this is Hitoshi they’re talking about, and suddenly, like a switch being thrown, Aizawa finds himself caring all too much about the personal lives of his students. He never thought he’d be in a position to watch his adopted son slowly fall in love (with Class 1-A’s resident gremlin, of all people), yet here he is.

TW: Implied/Referenced Child Abuse

Genre: Fluff, Romance

SHINBAKU, minor/background ERASERMIC, Outsider POV

This was such a satisfying ride. Although it is outsider POV (Aizawa's), it all feels very clear. I love how EraserMic are polar opposites lol. The fic came together beautifully and I loved the slow descent of how Shinsou and Bakugou got together (though maybe Aizawa was getting a bit impatient-).

4. allow me the pleasure of loving you by pyrrhicwildfire (series of oneshots // total 15k // complete)

TODOBAKU, Fluff and Romance

My babies are adorable as hell and their shenanigans? Amusing as well.

5. Motivation to a Realization by NeonBlackRoseRevived (oneshot // 5k)

It's common for first years in the Heroics course at U.A to write a mandatory essay on how and why they would become a villain. No, this is not some attempt and making sure there are no traitors, and no this is not done to discriminate between quirks. This essay is used to get future heroes thinking about what-if's that could make or break them. This is for future heroes to know what to do, what to expect if one ever deflects or something else happens to make them become villains. Bakugou doesn't want to write this stupid essay, but like hell, he's going to get himself kicked out of the Heroics course for not completing it.

TW: Implied Child Abuse, Child Neglect, Non-Consensual Touching, Non-Consensual Drug Use, Past Attempted Rape/Non-Con, Implied Sexual Assault, Molestation, Kidnapping, Implied Human Trafficking, Implied Panic Attacks

Genre: Angst, Hurt

GEN, Bakugou Katsuki-centric

Hoo, boy. That's a heavy list. In all fairness though, it's not very graphic but I have to say this fic mentions some awful events. Not everyone's cup of tea but it summed up Bakugou's character very well. The writing was top-notch as well.

[class1akids]

I've started to write a fic during the Jump Festa when I was bummed out how Shouto's VA wasn't invited. The fact that Anime Japan panel was the same, gave me the push to finish this fic. (Which is a 5k vent-fic in a way).

uninvited by class1akids (BrusselsSprout)

(G, GEN, 5k)

"After that disaster, the HPSC press director gave Shouto a call, kindly explaining how he would not be invited this year. It was a new era, an era of national rebuilding, of forming new bonds between society and its celebrity, baby-faced heroes. The Symbols of Victory and Hope, the Twin Stars of Japan, who did not share blood with villains and disgraced former heroes. It was not personal, Shouto was a great hero as long as he kept his head down and did his job in the background. But Japan had no need for a “Todoroki” to be in the spotlight."

Or

Shouto is not invited to the yearly hero gala.

There are many things that Shouto loves about his relationship with Katsuki, but sometimes he finds it hard to articulate them all.

(G, 0.5K, 1/1)

Todoroki's voice dies out as he watches small flecks of rainbow dance across Bakugou’s face as the chain swings slowly. They’re everywhere, the small rainbows—they’re tucking themselves into the lips of Bakugou’s smile, splattering across his cheekbones like freckles dipped in stardust.

He can’t take his eyes off of Bakugou.

“It’s just a suncatcher,” Bakugou explains, face flushing red.

“It makes rainbows,” Todoroki murmurs.

It’s tradition. Common decency. Basic fucking manners. Katsuki is doing the bare minimum by not showing up empty-handed.

It’s not his damn fault that the stupid birthday present looks like he is asking a certain idiot’s hand in marriage.

Trial AU: "TDRKvTDRK" / The people v Endeavour

Either for a post-war trial of the people v Endeavour or to determine if Rei is able to live unsupervised or if she's a fit guardian to Shouto. They would need to determine if there was abuse towards her and/or the kids in either case.

-Endeavour's argument during his testimony being "it was training", "in order to become nro1 hero/what he was meant(created) to be" and some people siding with him since "he's perfect to become a hero, it'd be a waste of talent otherwise, of his quirk, his fast judgement, his training, the kid should just keep going!"

-And Shouto's lawyer response being "so that means it's ok to raise all kids with strong quirks to be heroes? (some Hawks parallels)" "Train them as soon as we find out! Take them from their childhood and family and instead of a kindergarten send them to a hero factory!" "Because as long as they become perfect heroes it doesn't matter if they are kids." and they get close and holds Endeshit's eyes "Isn't that right, Endevour-san?"Reminds me of Snowpiercer "As long as it's beneficial to our society the sacrifices don't matter" kind of mentality.

-Imagine the media asking heroes what they think about the allegations. And Hawks smile suddenly turning serious and answering with hints about this being covered up for years without explicitly saying it. 

And Endeshit's sidekicks being all "as long as Endeshit does the work perfectly it's not our business" Most heroes opting for a "no comment". Some reflect on their colleagues and how they view them until now. Others are aware this wasn't the first case and are sure won't be the last no matter the outcome. WWP coming out regretting not having being able to realise despite being in charge on people's safety "80% of our rescues are kids, be it from disasters, accidents or domestic calls involving villains". "Kids are strong, most time, the adults are the ones that need more reassurance from us, when kids see a hero they immediately feel rescued, safe, they follow our instructions as soon as they call down" "We heroes are supposed to inspire that feeling, our presence should evoque safety even before starting the actual rescue" "For a kid to not only see their father as danger, but a hero, the Nro1 Hero as a threat to that safety... is something that will not only destroy everything we have worked on as Pro Heroes but will came up every time we see a kid light up when we arrive in their rescue"

-Then Shouto's testimony; being asked about his routine, his training, diet, education, his relationships with his friends, with his mother and how he saw her, with his siblings. By his lawyer and then by Endeavour's lawyer. "How was your relationship with your siblings?"; "Non-existent" "What's the closest you remember being to them" "I saw them once" "they were playing with a ball on the yard, I was being dragged to training" "Touya-nii fell and Natsuo-nii was laughing at him, Fuyumi-nee and the housemaid were worried" "I asked Fa-Endevour to join them but he say no" "Did he say why?" "Objection hearsay!" "Denied" "Did Mr.Endevour say why?" Not looking up, in a soft voice he repeated mechanically "They are failures, don't get close to them" -Can you describe what happened that night?" 

“Until recently I'd only remember her crying, her words at her breaking point" "...then I started remembering her words, her reassurance "It's ok to become who you want to become" 

and then they get to the scar incident, which at this point everyone was speculating was Endeavour's training fault, another cover-up. And then the defendant lawyer starts "it was your own mother who hurt you wasn't it?" and Shouto is visibly mad "she is the one who burnt your face, am I wrong?" "and that's the only burn scar you have isn't it?" and Shouto glaring "that's the only scar with medical records, since an ambulance was called" and either then or on redirect Shouto's feed up and determinated "where's my scar?"

"She was talking on the phone about needing to leave, she was asking her mother for help, in the middle of the night, in desperate whispers, and then, as soon as she turned she saw red peeking from the door" "the terror on her face as she grabbed that boiling water while her her whole body was shaking its marred deeper into me than any scar" Shouto shifting his eyes from the lawyer to Endevour "And of that, he is responsible."

aaaand tw going nuts cause Shouto is saying an abused mother was so on the edge she saw red hair and blue eyes and reacted in fear, thinking her 6yo son was her abusive husband.  #wheresmyscar is trending Bakugo

Imagine if Endeshit trial happened when they grew up (which would happen if it was Shouto who wanted to press charges since he'd need to be over 20yo, to testify tho there's no age restrictions I think) Class 1-A are already pro heroes and Bkg goes in as a witness to "needlessly" prove the point that "Shouto is a victim". Cause the other lawyers would be like "Pro Hero Shouto, best grades, best results, best hero, where's the flaw? What was the consequence of this alleged "abuse"? being the best? My client was the best and trained the best hero, and it shows!" And then Bkg goes into detail on how being "classmates" with Sho allowed him to be the expert in identifying abuse victims he is today 

"and also" Bkg ending his speech "Endeshit wasn't the best, All Might is, he just turned up to be the asshole who abused the kid who would end up being the best on his own, and he shouldn't get too comfortable just cause I spend a few months in USA, I'll be taking that title soon" and then when sho's on the stand he's asked about what he thought about Bkg's testimony "it's weird how he still doesn't notice we are friends even when he sees everything else" Shouto's lawyer

Imagine their protectiveness towards a child, a 15yo who had given up on justice but is willing to make this step regardless. They'd be so fucking honored to be in charge of this case but under so much pressure, not only cause it's The Trial of the current Nro1 hero that'd change all their society's views on Pro Heroes, but because of his client, this kid's trust in them is the biggest and heaviest responsability they've ever carried, and they will make sure to get them justice and hope.I need their first time meeting Shouto and their first impressions, the revelation of how big this case is, Aizawa being the one briefing them before being introduced to Shouto. 

Endeshit

Endeavor would be combative and deny everything; corruption, propaganda, Endeavor’s side trying to depict Shouto as an exaggerating rebellious teen, a liar, using the Sport Festival as an example "he just wanted to make his father mad! a victim wouldn't take that risk!" totally not taking into account that Shouto wouldn't consider making Endeavour mad a risk but just part of his daily life, especially since there's no one else who would get hurt as collateral damage, and he's used to being hurt. 

All Might testifying, recounting his meeting with Endeshit at the Sports Festival and his regret on not seeing it sooner, his failure. -I need corruption, old and new cover-ups attempts, hero&villains propaganda, paparazzi following Shouto and his siblings, reporters surrounding Rei's hospital freaking Shouto out when they try to barge into her room and making him question if all this was worth it.

-I need jury reactions, a judge that controls both sides and is polite, Shouto's lawyer feeling this case close, Endeavour's lawyers being at the top of the chain and having a reputation.

-I need the public response, on the news, on twitter/blogs, paparazzi.

And the news portraying Shouto "not being social" "unfriendly and giving off an arrogant vibe" "expressionless and impossible to read".   Mainstream media covering it while being biased, hyperfocusing on the heroes v villains implications. While tw/blogs/yt being like "how tf are they so blind" while analysing Shouto's and Endeavour's answers and behaviours.

-I need doctors' and/or nurses' recits and secret notes.

And the maid who used to take care of the Todoroki children, and had stopped making their meals because of a back injury, being a surprise witness.

#basically #I need a +100k Gen shouto-centric fic #there's a bonus on the making but it turned into a character study so I need to tidy it up #if anyone writes a trial au please let me know I need to read this so bad ;w; #todoroki shouto #enji todoroki #bakugou katsuki #aizawa shouta #takami keigo #bnha manga #rei todoroki #hawks bnha #bnha #BNHA au #bnha prompts #I can't write cause idk what plot is

ONESHOT 2 | APOCALYPSE —

TW: Death, gore, blood, weaponry, killing a friend, suicide, oocness.

SHIPS: Kiritodo/hinted Bakudeku.

P/R/F: Platonic

Over fifty years ago, the world began to collapse. A large explosion off in the middle of Japan somewhere was caused. A mass of greyish-green smoke erupted from a small building hidden in the corner of an unpopular street.

The small building was disguised as a paint shop, when in reality it was a lab of unqualified scientists. Scientist's who made experiments that deliver no help to the world.

People ran as fast and far as they possibly could. Some people idiotically stayed nearby, curious as to what in the damn's name was going on; a few held their phones out, recording the scene.

Those who stayed near started to become affected by the smoke. It ventured through their nostrils, ears, eyes, and mouths —anywhere that is a possible opening to the inside of a human's body — it restricted their mobility of breathing, then their skin started to peel off and change to a light grey colour.

Their words slurred; minds fogged over…

Until they were only puppets to the smoke.

Some of those same people died from the mutation caused by the smoke immediately, others became zombified and started attacking the ones unaffected, by biting and digging their fingers into their flesh… anyway possible.

The mass attack had spread quickly. From one part of the country to the other. Some people had even spread it across the globe. To the United Kingdom, Poland, and many more countries, until, there weren't many people left.

Which brings us to today. Fifty odd years later, with only just over two hundred people across the globe left alive.

Shoto Todoroki - a young seventeen-year-old was one of these survivors, along with some friends he's made along the way.

The sky was gloomy, filled with stormy grey clouds with some rain drizzling. The wind howled and pranced around the small group of teenagers. The group consisted of four teenage boys:

- Shoto Todoroki

- Izuku Midoriya

- Eijiro Kirishima

- Katsuki Bakugo

Other than the sounds of their shoes tapping against the asphalt road in sync with the freezing wind, no other noise was made. The group was silent — the type of silence that was tense and unsettling.

Not even two hours ago did the quadripartite lose a member of their squad, and damn it did Shoto blame himself all for it.

Shoto, the others, and their now-deceased friend: Hanta Sero were surrounded by a group of zombies. It all came on so quickly. The zombies surrounding them far too swiftly for the squad's liking. There was no room to run, only fight.

And fight they did. With swing after swing with bats and knives. Shoot after a shoot with some guns they held. Blood, guts, and greying fleshy meat spewed over the five boys, dirtying their clothing; rusting their blades.

The counted leader of the group, Katsuki Bakugo, shouted out commands for each person in the group to do. Pairing everyone up with one another but himself. Shouting out when to attack. His voice echoed on for honestly long miles.

Shoto could feel himself becoming exhausted from all the attacking and trying to run - dammit, this was no time to have some sort of asthma attack now! The dyad-haired boy scolded himself.

He took a glance around the surrounding area. Seeing Katsuki excellently take down the dead figures on his own with no help whatsoever. Izuku and Eijiro back to back shooting and jabbing the zombies with their guns… and Hanta-

Wait… where was the black-haired boy?

Shoto frantically looked around. Spinning at three-sixty degrees plenty of times to the point he became dizzy; he could feel his breathing picking up, anxiety rising with it.

Where was he, where was he, where was he?!

He couldn't see the familiar boy anywhere. Nowhere to be until a scream occurred on the other side of the street.

Shoto glanced over to where the scream came from, there Hanta Sero was…

The others were too busy fighting the zombies themselves — they barely had the space or time to go and save a friend, but no zombie was blocking Shoto's pathway.

So he ran.

He ran towards Hanta, slashing and dashing through the horde of zombies. Stabbing and jabbing. Feet thumping across the asphalt as his chest burned some more until he skidded to a stop in front of Hanta Sero.

Hanta who was kneeling on the floor on the grey-stone pavement, clenching his left hand over his right wrist, his skin tone was greying at a fast rate to the rest of his body, sobs erupted in his throat. The older boy looked up to see Shoto standing there, a distant look crossing his face.

Hanta's teeth clenched in horrid pain. The wound burned far worse than fire. His eyes stung from both the tears and the feeling of the forming of mutating.

From what sounded like in the distance, a trio of footsteps came up from behind shoto.

“Oi, bastard! Don't just stand there, do something!” Shoto felt the blond flick his forehead out of anger as the same said blond kneeled also in front of Hanta.

Shoto and the other two—Izuku and Eijiro - watched as the blond and the black-haired argued back and forth on Hanta's situation.

“Please, it is the only way. I would rather not become like one of those!” Hanta cried out as he glanced from Katsuki to the trio, then straight into the eyes of Shoto begging him to agree to his wishes.

Shoto glanced at the two usually optimistic teenagers on both sides of him, seeing no reaction but sadness and fear. Whereas Katsuki in front of him, was shaking with anger and despair — the counted leader wished not to lose anyone else… Not after losing some others from their squad already (Denki Kaminari, Tenya Iida, Mina Ashido... Katsuki clenched his fists tightly at the thought of his losses).

“I can't do it.” Katsuki stands from his kneeled position, small stones and dirt from the pavement trickling off the creases of his joggers and falling to the spots in front of his red colour faded trainers. He turns away from Hanta, gritting his teeth as he walked away from the group; tears building up.

“Shoto please?” Hanta pleaded. His skin was greying more and more. Shoto could tell he was starting to lose control over the feeling of staying conscious from the horrid virus puppeting him. His words were slurring like a drunken man. His body started to slowly sway from one side to the other.

Shoto was stumped on the choices he was weighed with. To kill his best friend instantly, so he won't have to suffer, or to let the virus puppet his controls as they watch him try to kill him and the other three?

Shoto grabbed his gun from the side pocket of his heavy blue coat, placing a couple of bullets inside as his fingers curled around the handle of the heavy metal junk piece. Pointer finger rested lazily upon the trigger, “if you're sure, Hanta.”

He didn't want his friend to suffer… He'll let his best friend rest in peace, even if it means he'd have to deal with the consequences of killing Hanta.

Hanta frantically nodded, readying himself for the quick pain to send him to eternal rest.

Izuku and Eijiro - once beside Shoto's sides, now backing away from the scenario, not wanting to watch what will go down. They decided to sit on the other side of the now empty street, just where Katsuki sat on a set of stairs that led to what they assumed was once a sweets shop.

Shoto aimed his gun up.

Hanta closed his eyes.

Shoto pressed back on the trigger.

Hanta slowed his panicking breaths, waiting for his end to come for him.

A loud bang suddenly goes off, and Hanta's body slumps forward over as Shoto placed his gun back in the same side pocket as before.

The colour of dark red flowed from the front of hanta's head, causing a puddle of blood to form. His blood was the only colour shown among this boring street of greying death-

“icyhot! Bring yourself back to the present will you, damn bastard!”

Shoto shook the thoughts out, eyes blinking rapidly as he looked around his now new surroundings. “Where are we?” His quiet voice echoed across the empty area.

“We're in a garage area! We decided to camp here tonight to rest!” Eijiro responded as Shoto now noticed the trio in front of him setting up their sleeping bags, Izuku had set up an electric lantern light beside his own dark green sleeping bag.

Shoto slides his bag off his shoulder and kneels to the lino-tiled ground, grabbing his blue one, copying the actions of his friends by placing it on the floor, and soon sits on top of it whilst he digs through his brown shoulder bag next grabbing four small pull-up cans, handing one each to Izuku, Eijiro, and Katsuki along with handing them a plastic spoon each.

“Cheers icyhot.”

“Thanks, Sho!” both Katsuki and Izuku thanked the dyad-haired teenager as he hears Eijiro on his right sigh and then whine next to him. “Sweetcorn again?”

“They're the only cans we have left. All the meaty or pudding ones are empty.” Shoto responded as he started to dig into his cold canned vegetable.

“If you're going to complain like that, why don't you explore for better food, redhead loser?!”

Eijiro decided to give up on his complaint and join in with the rest of the group by digging into his food.

The aura was calmed, and the noise was silent, minus the quadripartite eating and clinking their spoons against their tin cans.

After some time, one after the other, all four of the teenagers were done eating. Now they were all doing their things: Izuku was writing down in his notebook, Katsuki counting his and everyone's weaponry seeing what might come in to use for their long deathly trip, and Eijiro was reading a comic he once stole from Hanta Sero ages ago, now reading it due to the loss of his dear friend.

Shoto sat idly still in his sitting position, face blank; no movement was caused, minus his breathing and sometimes blinking every few minutes or so.

The youngling was stuck in thought, thinking over and over again of the scenario that happened over four hours ago now. Having to kill his best friend… he didn't want him to suffer, so of course he helped Hanta with his wish. He would rather not be seen as a wimp after Hanta's pleads. Plus... it was the apocalypse. There was no other safe route to go down except for death.

Shoto could feel his hands start to shake and sweat at the repeated flashback. It kept replaying. Over and over and over again! He wanted it to stop. Leave his damned mind, let him be with peace!

Suddenly, a loud noise brought Shoto back to the real world. He flinched at the noise; looking up from his lap. His surroundings were dark. How long was he stuck in thought? Eijiro, Katsuki, and Izuku all have fallen asleep, Izuku's lantern ran out of saved charge to keep any light glowing.

Shoto's senses perked as he could hear the sounds of footsteps and hushed voices echoing from the other side of one of the walls behind his back. He grabs his bag from beside him and grabs both a knife and a pistol gun with him, standing from where he sat as he tiptoed over to the wall, pressing his ear up against it.

Though, as he pulled his head immediately away from the wall he noticed there was no sound on that side. Was the apocalypse's madness finally getting to him, causing him to go crazy?

A tap on his shoulder makes Shoto turn swiftly around, yet nobody was behind him, nor anywhere actually. The only people in the room were him and Eijiro, Katsuki, and Izuku — nobody else...

Shoto glances down to the ground, noticing a piece of folded paper by his feet. He bends down and grabs it, unfolding it he sees a few numbers written on it. Was it a code of sorts? He folds the piece of paper back up and places it in to one of the few pockets of his jacket, and heads back to the sleeping trio.

Maybe he'll stay up tonight, he thought, just to keep an eye and ear out for anything odd going on.

A few more hours passed as Shoto stayed far wide awake. The sun was just about rising, flitting glimmers of sun rays through the thin gaps of the huge garage doors. One of the others began to groan awake, Shoto looked over to the group of three and realised it was his curly haired friend Izuku.

“Mornin' Sho!” Izuku immediately perked after realising he wasn't the first to be awake of the lot.

Shoto hums in response, nodding curtly toward the smaller teenager.

With a small conversation happening between the green-haired and the dyad-haired teenagers, Eijiro and Katsuki eventually both woke up, all four decided then to ration out some food they still held on to along with coming up with some plans for their mysterious adventure (although — most of the “talking” was just Izuku and Katsuki arguing about this, that and the other whilst Eijiro tried calming the two, Shoto decided to stay out of it. There was no point in trying to stop the argument anyway.)

The group of four eventually pack their belongings and one by one — like chicks following the mother duck — they leave the space. Eijiro and Izuku talked to each other about anything they possibly could (dreams, their ideas on how the world is like before and maybe after the apocalypse, creating jokes to cheer the quadripartite up; you name it!) Katsuki held a beyond look, glancing at every corner and shadows the world casted looking for any zombies or other walking beings. Shoto stayed stuck in thought, one hand in his heavy blue jacket, as he fiddled with the edges of the once-folded-now-scrunched-up piece of paper he found last night.

He suddenly slides the paper out of his pocket; gently unfolding the creased paper and reviewing the numbers again. What could the numbers possibly mean, why so ominous; who placed it on the floor and why?

“What you got there bro?” Shoto jumps as he looks to his left side, seeing Eijiro peeking over Shoto's shoulder at the paper he held, his eyes squinting confused at what he was reading.

“Oh… I found this last night on the floor of the garage-”

Katsuki abruptly stops in his steps as his ears perked up at what he heard his quiet acquaintance say, causing the same-said male to bump into his back. He turns around to face the heterochromatic-eyed boy, seething fire on the sides of his face, as he jabs a finger at the youngest of the group.

“You found a note… And didn't bother to tell us?!”

“I was going to eventually-!”

“When, huh?!”

Mere silence.

Katsuki rips the paper out of Shoto's grip, reading it over for himself whilst mumbling, “freaking Half-and-half, absolute stupid bastard.”

The world was quiet around them for a couple of minutes — like a television's volume being turned to mute by the control of a simple button.

“They're coordinates.” Katsuki eventually talks up.

“What-?”

“They're coordinates to some place!” The blond grins then wavers the paper high into the air, “I say we check it out!”

“W-wait!” Izuku interrupts, “but what if it's a trap?!”

“Then we'll fight our way out of the trap!” Katsuki faces forwards again and starts speed-walking ahead, Izuku and Eijiro running, following behind the usually angered boy, Shoto soon walking after them in thought.

He's got a bad feeling about where these “coordinates” are, Shoto internally tells himself, clenching one fist together tightly.

Their walk went on for a couple more hours and now, the group was hiding behind a fallen concrete-grey wall, hiding away from some zombies they'd now encountered. The excitement the group held mere minutes before has now drowned to the darkest depths of the ocean, whilst seriousness and concentration surfaced to the top.

They stood as still and quiet as possible, waiting with baited breaths for something to happen: whether that was for an outraged attack to be caused or for the zombies to disperse, none of the four was sure.

“Fuck it, I'm going in!”

“Wha- Kacchan no!" yet Izuku's response failed to reach the ears of his childhood friend as the same blond ran out from behind their hiding spot, shooting bullets and jabbing the butt of his gun into the heads of the zombies.

“He kind of has the right idea, dude.” Eijiro shrugs, feeling slight defeat in not helping the other to stop their teammate from dangering himself. Izuku tilted his head to the ground and sighs then looks back at Eijiro in the eyes, “I guess he does, right!” Izuku then grabs his gun from the top of his partly opened bag and runs out too, following the counted leader, helping him seize the layer of zombies.

“We should probably help them before Katsuki shouts at us.” Eijiro commands Shoto as the dyad-haired teenager nods and hums in response, the two following the other duo.

Shoto decided to use a machete he found long ago, sneaking up to a standing still zombie and swinging the blade at the side of its greying and peeled-off neck, its close-to-black blood splattered onto his pale skin; the zombie's head slicing jagged off the start of the body's neck.

The head rolled onto the asphalt road, causing a small stream of blood to be caused whilst the rest of the zombie's body collapsed over on its side.

The sound of footsteps slowly coming up to Shoto with a heavy beat to it caused the teenager to swiftly turn around and immediately stab the blade of his machete into the top of a zombie's forehead, he could see the tip of the machete coming out of the other side of the zombie's head, the same zombie collapsed forwards ragdoll-like on to the road, same as the other zombie.

Two more of them came up to Shoto. Teasing him as they walked ever so slowly. Shoto stepped towards them and stabbed them both — one immediately after the other — in the chests, kicking them to the ground as he then stabs them in the tops of their heads too.

“DEKU!" Came the sudden distanced voice of his counted leader. Fright and panic wavering in his tone. Shoto perks his head away from the two zombies he just slaughtered and over to where the voice echoed from. Not all that far away he could see a clear view of Izuku Midoriya lying still on the cemented pavement, Katsuki Bakugo kneeling over his body, his shoulders hunched and tense yet shaking.

Was he crying? What's wrong with Izuku? Shoto questioned as he began making his way over.

Though his steps were too slow. Suddenly, a loud sharp bang goes off.

Katsuki's figure slumped over Izuku's one in an instant, blood trailing down the side of his forehead as the gun he once gripped onto slid out of his grip, sliding onto the other side of Izuku's deceased figure.

“What the hell was that noise?!” Eijiro, winded, came running up behind Shoto - his figure slightly hunched over as he took in deep gasps of breath.

Shoto stayed silent. Taking the chance of Eijiro not focusing on the scene in front of him by walking up to the now dead duo, digging into the pockets of Katsuki's hooded jumper as he finds the paper the blond male once stole from him, along with grabbing Katsuki's and Izuku's guns and any other items; placing them inside his bag.

There was no time to mourn when it came to the apocalypse.

He stands from where he was kneeling and twisted away from their bodies, heading back over to Eijiro at perfect timing as the spiky redhead finally caught his breath and started to stand normally. Shoto grabbed Eijiros' wrist and twisted him around, pulling him along the road, passing the two dead bodies of his friends.

“Woah‐ okay! Bro where are we going?”

“To wherever these coordinates Katsuki was going on about are.”

“Without him? Where is he actually- and Izuku, dude?” Eijiro suddenly felt the horrid aura that cocooned Shoto. Something bad went down and Eijiro wasn't there to notice, the spiky redhead thinks.

The aura stayed like that for the rest of the day, seeping into the evening. Shoto and Eijiro — not even ten minutes ago — have come across a food shop of some kind, so with no thought in mind, the two internally agreed upon raiding the said shop… If the food was still edible and not stolen, that is.

“I knew the outside of this looked big, but damn… The inside is so much bigger!” Eijiro excites whilst Shoto hummed in response. They both walked in synchronisation over to one of the closest food aisles; both covering their mouths and noses at the horrid stench it brought.

Rotten vegetables and fruit are strewn messily on the shelving and littering the white-tile floor.

Disgusting, both redheads thought.

They explored the large shop for a while, and in the middle of doing so they accidentally split up whilst looking for anything edible and maybe some good drinks too. Both piled their bags to the brim with what the duo both liked and may eat in the future on their everlasting survival adventure.

Half an hour later and the two find each other again at the very far back of the shop, standing near an “employee's only” door which Shoto stood near against with an ear up to the door, eijiro standing close by. When the two paired up again and were about to talk, they heard voices coming from the other side of the door.

They waited near the door for a while. Two minutes, five minutes… eventually a couple more minutes crossed the line and the voices stopped. Shoto glanced towards Eijiro who held a stern look, nodding towards the dyad-haired teenager, indicating for him to open the door. They both got their weapons out ready, in case anything bad happened.

Shoto brings a hand down to the handle on the right, gripping the bronze metal tightly as he pushes the handle down. It squeaked slightly, causing both boys to cringe and wince at the noise as Shoto suddenly shoves the door open.

What he saw was not expected.

Instead of there being a standard boxy room for employees of the food shop they stood in, there was, instead, a large barrier/fenced-in area outside with newly made buildings and camping tents filling the ground. Various people roamed about. Some looked like guards, whereas most were just plain surviving civilians.

Eijiro came up beside Shoto as he peeked into the doorway also, “Woah…" He breathed out.

Suddenly a bulky male in dark clothing came up to the doorway, and in a deep voice he spoke. “You can't enter unless you've got a paper slip to do so.” he says, crossing his arms. He looked terrifying, Shoto thought, whilst he dug into his pockets looking for the piece of paper with the numbers he held, though silently gasping and starting to inwardly panic as it was not in any of his pockets.

Shoto was about to freak out until- “here, I got it.” He looked over to see that Eijiro handed the bulky man the paper, did he drop it by any chance if so, when?

The bulky man stands to the side, guiding his arm out after reading over the paper. “you may enter.” he tells as eijiro goes through the door. Shoto was about to follow when the same bulky man stopped him, pushing Shoto away from the doorway, “you cannot.” The man demands, “you don't have a permission slip to do so.”

What...?

“Why can't he enter?” Eijiro butts in for Shoto as the man turns to face him slightly whilst also making sure to keep an eye on Shoto, thinking the dyad-haired teenager might do something suspicious.

“Only a certain number of people are allowed to enter this camp. The amount is one hundred and fifty, you filled up the last slot; there's no more room for him to join.”

“That doesn't even make sense… This is a safety camp for the survivors of this apocalypse, right? Then let him enter! Who cares about how many people can or cannot come here, just let-” Eijiro's words were suddenly interrupted by the man jabbing a sharp, jagged blade into his chest. Eijiro staggered backward, collapsing to the ground with a loud yet dense thump.

"EIJIRO!"

Shoto attempted to enter, wanting to run and comfort his very friend. Tears begged to fall from the corners of his eyes, blurring his vision slightly.

The bulky man pushed Shoto away once more as Shoto shouted out for Eijiro again, watching as the life drained from the spiky redhead's eyes, his body becoming still and fragile.

As Shoto screamed and cried for his last friend, the man slammed the door closed in front of Shoto, the sound of it locking as Shoto falls to his knees, his body tensed with shaking as his tears freed themselves by rolling down his pale skin and causing small puddles of salt water to form on the white tiles.

[mytragedyperson]

So recently I've been really enjoying dabi and shouto fics. Like where dabi and shouto end up having a decent sibling relationship. And honestly I just like shouto fics anyway. So if you have any good shouto centric fics, specifically with villain shouto or shouto and dabi friendship, can you request them? Any ship but I do prefer todobaku and/or dabihawks but I'm really not that picky as long as the story is interesting. Can be angst, fluff or anything in between, including crack. I do also like social media fics and conspiracy theorist todoroki

~MY HERO ACADEMIA FIC RECS PART 1~

If I die (will you be the one to push me off the roof ?) by Hoco_Koen (oneshot // 5k)

Bakugou Katsuki is many things, but he's not a liar. So when they ask : "Did you tell Midoriya to kill himself ?" When they ask, he says yes.

TW: Major Character Death, Suicide, Bullying, Stalking, Abuse, Murder.

Genre: Hurt No Comfort, Angst

Bakugou Katsuki-centric.

This was so deliciously sad, oh my god. Beautifully written and had a very bittersweet tone to it throughout the fic. The ending made me openly gasp and a complete 10/10.

2. Our echoes, they are deafening by underfallingstars (oneshot // 6k)

“Shinsou, I dare you to kiss the most attractive person in the room.” Bakugou knows Shinsou would choose him, if he gave him the chance. He doesn't.

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Hurt/Comfort

Ships: Shinbaku (Shinsou Hitoshi/Bakugou Katsuki)

This?? was so cute?? A bit angsty, a bit sweet. Made my heart throb, I loved it.

3. stitch me up by kae_karo (twoshot // 36k)

Much to his chagrin, both- what, halves? It’s as good a term as any, he supposes. Both halves of Todoroki stand side by side, staring at him in the most irritating and unnerving way. -- todo gets split into his two quirk halves and katsuki has to Deal With It

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Light Angst, Fluff

TodoBaku.

Absolutely brilliant. Idea? Brilliant. Execution? Brilliant. As a todobaku enthusiast, this hit the EXACT spots that needed to be hit. 10/10, will read again. The way both the halfs were portrayed was utter GENIUS.

4. Tales of unlikely brotherhood by mentallypapaya (Incomplete // currently at 6k)

Five times the class didn't get the Kacchan-Deku dynamic, and the one time they started figuring it out. // "So that was fucking weird, right?" Kirishima checked, pointing at the door they'd just left through. The other occupants of the room nodded in agreement. "I don't think I've ever seen those two have a conversation that didn't end in Midoriya's physical health taking a hit before." Todoroki muttered, head tilting to the side. "It is very odd," Tokoyami agreed. "Could that simply be what happens when Bakugou neglects his sleep schedule?" Kaminari shook his head. "I don't think so, we've been with him all day. He's mostly been normal, apart from just ignoring the shit out of us. I think Mido's the first person he actually responded to." "This is so weird," Kirishima reiterated.

No TWs Apply.

Genre: Fluff, 5+1 Things (is that even a genre-?)

Platonic BakuDeku, Bakugou Katsuki-centric, Midoriya Izuku-centric.

There is a lack of platonic bakudeku fics out there, just saying. And this fic is the perfect example of how many more fics we need.

5. lol get rekt endeavor by Saccha (oneshot // 4k)

"How do you feel about your father becoming the number one hero?" "He'll always be number two in my heart." In which Todoroki Touya grows up to be a hero, and channels his anger into pettiness instead of villainy.

TW: Implied/Referenced Child Abuse

Genre: Crack, Light Angst, Humour

Gen, Todoroki Touya-centric.

Beautiful. I love petty characters and this fic filled the petty meter 100%. The angst was also really well-done and ofc, the Todoroki family deserved better. Not Endeavour tho. Burn in hell to him.

#this is such a mess #can u tell im a bakugou fan? lol #mha #bnha #fic recs #ao3 #bakugou katsuki-centric #todoroki shouto-centric #todoroki touya-centric #midoriya izuku-centric #bakudeku #todobaku #shinbaku #shinsou hitsoshi #bakugou katsuki #midoriya izuku #todoroki shouto #the todoroki family #class 1A #being a multishipper is hell but im not complaining

[class1akids]

17 (with everyone) by class1akids (BrusselsSprout)

(G, GEN, 3K, 1/1)

Half a year after the final war, Todoroki Shouto turns 17. Celebrations in the Todoroki family are complicated. But do they need to be?

5+1 things, as the family prepares to share a table for the first time since the events of the final war.

For once, I managed to finish a birthday fic on time for Shouto!

Hear me out

When todoroki gets sick and he coughs or sneezes his quirk goes haywire. Like just picture it

Todoroki:*makes face like he's about to sneeze*

Sero: CODE RED, I REPEAT CODE RED EVERYONE HIDE

Todoroki:*doesn't sneeze*

Sero:k guys false alar-

Todoroki:*actually sneezes*

Class 1a:*incoherent screaming*

Aizawa:*walked in just at the right moment to witness it*

Long story short they had to repaint the roof to fully hide the scorch marks

Hope u guys liked this

fiiiiiic reeeeecs? 👻

Thank you for being so sweet & patient with this, HERE ARE SOME!!! (also I know this is a long post but I didn't want to put any of them under a keep reading😭):

Nine Lives by machiroads | You may have been wondering if I was going to start by recommending Nine Lives again and yes I'm going to recommend Nine Lives again, who do you think I am. This fic was my Book Of The Year 2023. I'm also going to recommend its Shinsou-centric spinoff, Naruhata Noir, bc I love Shinsou and NN is so fun despite the literal actual cannibalism (mind the tags, but I didn't find anything in this fic overly graphic!)

Actually, I am going to blanket recommend everything by machiroads, you literally can't go wrong. Special shoutout to 1966 Ford Nutstang GT350 Shelby for Present Mic's quarter-life crisis and Aizawa at his Most Gremlin Ever, I love this fic sm.

let's make some noise (time goes fast when you're having fun) by carolinaa | The first time I read this fic, I actually scrolled right back up to the top and read it again. It's so good. I don't even know where to start. First of all, my favorite Hizashi POV I have literally ever read. The way the author handled everything from his hearing loss to the inherent horror of trying to navigate your 20s. How much he and Aizawa love each other. So much about this fic feels so whole? in a way? I don't know? 1000/10, no notes.

Cry Me A River is another favorite by carolinaa. I literally am wrapping this fic around my shoulders like a weighted blanket.

Passaggio by kashinoha | If you would Like To Cry, this fic is a very recent read for me. Another really good Present Mic POV, but also I curled up into a weepy little ball on the ground upon reading it. I just want the boys to take care of themselves for once is that too much to ask.

nothing as undoing by HalloweenClown | 'Fics that land somewhere between soft and stabbing me in the heart,' which is where a lot of Aizawa & Eri fics land for me. This fic does such an excellent job of capturing the very early stages of building trust™ between them.

acid reflux by lcthe | Vigilante Midoriya AU with a twist(?) The vibes are surreal, the vibes are I'm confused, the vibes are I'm having a great time, and the writing is excellent. It's incomplete and being revised, but I read up to Chapter 3 fairly recently and the erasermic in that chapter,, so painful but so good. Fair warning, this one does get a little dark!

the river walked me home by Thealmostrhetoricalquestion | Writing this post actually reminded me that I want to reread this one. It was the first Todoroki-centric fic I ever read in this fandom (something like a year ago? or close to it?) and I can vividly remember shedding tears over Animal Crossing. I have never played Animal Crossing.

My Brother, My Brother, and Me and Breaking the Ice by seventh_time_lucky | SPEAKING of fics I want to reread, we are going back to 'Liza's pre-ao3 era' (as in, the fics are on ao3, but I was not) These two follow Natsuo as he tries to get to know Shouto after growing up as virtual strangers. There are sentences in the first fic that genuinely haunt me, and the entire coffee conversation (motif?) in the second fic is just. So good? I'm so glad I was able to find them again.

komorebi by Calamitatum | If you're interested in a waaay canon divergent fic, this one reads like a gut punch (in a good way!!) komorebi is one of those fics that I started reading thinking 'oh, that's an interesting premise' and then ended up thinking 'oh god wait what oh no.' I don't want to spoil anything but it definitely went in a direction I wasn't expecting, and honestly it feels like a masterclass in building tension, tackling multiple POVs, and callbacks, my beloved. This author is soo good at unpacking exposition, backstory, and motivation through conversations as well, which I appreciate greatly bc I struggle so hard with that in my own writing. The fic is incomplete with one chapter remaining, so I'm currently rereading it while waiting for the final update!

#i know for a fact i am missing some really good ones which is really frustrating #so i may come back to add to this later #but these were some of the first to come to mind!! #fic rec #ask #anon
