And it’s not until a few weeks later, when Kaminari stumbles into the common room rambling about another dumb idea, when they see Bakugo simply stare at him with a blank look on his face and nod absently every few minutes, that they finally see. They finally understand why the whole dorm feels like it’s been flipped upside down overnight.

Midoriya left UA, and he took Bakugo’s voice with him. —— [Manga spoilers! *mild swearing] Midoriya leaves UA. The rest of the class tries to keep Bakugo standing while he’s gone

Over their months at UA, this sort of Deku-Dynamite rivalry among fans has started to rise. Most people who like Izuku tend to hate Kacchan, for some inexplicable reason (well, maybe a little explicable, but still). Kacchan gets a ridiculous amount of bad press for the sports festival, being kidnapped by the League, and causing the downfall of All Might. Which, first of all, they shouldn’t have tied him up at the sports festival in the first place. And who blames the person who got kidnapped for their own kidnapping? 

-----

The press hates Katsuki. Izuku hates the press. So when the press goes too far, Izuku is going to be there for Katsuki.

Izuku swallows. “I’m… really sorry that happened,” he tries, in a low voice. “They had no right to do that to you, it was awful—”

“This is how it felt, huh.”

Kacchan’s voice is low, hollow. Bitter. His bottom lip is still trembling, and he pulls his knees up towards his chest. Izuku hates it. “What are you—”

“When I told you to take a swan dive. This is how it felt, right?” ----- The business course documentary premieres. Katsuki is forced to reckon with old wounds reopened unexpectedly.

Katsuki was quite possibly the most stubborn child to ever walk the planet earth. While his unwavering nature could cause issues, it had also saved his life several times. His determination was boundless when well directed, driving him to reach greater and greater heights.

Problem was, this wasn’t a height Katsuki wanted to reach. He'd gotten up here accidentally and he didn’t know how to get down. Or if he even should get down.

 In which Katsuki’s kidnapping goes ever so slightly differently. His classmates don’t show up to help him escape, All-Might is caught up in fighting Nomu and as a result takes longer to reach Katsuki after All for One teleported him away. Little things add up, and Katsuki's path as a hero is forever altered, for better or for worse.

Izuku's life is going amazingly well, with his Twitch channel where he streams himself playing video games and discussing the nerdiest things imaginable hitting 3 million followers, his best friend as his roommate, and his other close friends as tight-knit as they've been since high school. The only possible road bump is his viewer's continuous demands to know who "Kacchan" is - thanks to Katsuki often coming into his room during streams and Izuku's repeated attempts to pull him into video game competitions - and, more importantly, if they're dating. Which is crazy.

“The quirk…” Monoma pauses. His irritation ebbs away and his grin reforms, likely taking pleasure in making Katsuki wait. “...lets you hear people’s thoughts about you.”

“Tch, what a stupid quirk,” Katsuki scoffs. Now that he knows the quirk he’s been hit with is nothing worth killing over, he takes a step back from Monoma. “Like I give a fuck what people think about me.”

By ‘people’, Katsuki means strangers and extras he doesn’t care about. The members of class 2-A don’t fall into either of those categories.

“Congratulations on getting nine out of ten questions correct! Without further ado, let’s move on to the last question..” Hanazawa paused for dramatic effect as the lights dimmed and the spotlights overhead honed in on their podiums.

“What is … your hero partner’s type?”

A brief silence.

“‘Type?’” Izuku questioned at the same time as Kacchan.

“Yes, type,” the host laughed. “Like, who would they date? What are they into?”

The blood drained from Izuku’s face and he shot a panicked look at Kacchan. The blond didn’t seem to be faring any better, his gaze zeroed in on Hanazawa as if he could will her to change the question to something else.

Izuku... didn't know the answer to that.

--

In order to increase their popularity rankings as up and coming pro heroes, Izuku and Katsuki participate in the most popular late night talk show for hero duos - ‘Heroes Rising!’. They’re killing it, obviously, because they know each other from inside and out. Until one question stumps the two of them: “What is your hero partner’s type?”

"Kacchan is beautiful, today."

 -----

 Izuku gets hit with a truth quirk, as one does. He seems to be handling it well—

until Katsuki shows up.

This entire situation was absurd.

Abso-fucking-lutely absurd.

He was in love with Izuku—who was in love with Shouto—who was also in love with Izuku, and yet knew how Katsuki felt and seemed… fine with it? Not just fine. He was actively keeping Katsuki’s secret. Helping in his own weird, endearing way. Add to that his growing crush on Shouto and, well—it was a clusterfuck, honestly, and sometimes Katsuki felt like he was breaking under the insanity of it all.

But he couldn’t break, not then, not when the two assholes were sitting in his living room.

Two bound, wild things kneel before the king, and Shouto wonders how long it will take them to realize that it’s always all about power, with his father.

They are both beaten, injured, probably starving. Even on their knees, the blond one is listing to one side, putting weight on his companion to keep himself upright. The second, whose hair is darker, has blood dripping into his left eye and dirt matted into his curls. He braces himself ramrod straight to keep the blond one from falling over.

They are bent, but not broken. Shouto suspects that will change. 

King Todoroki Enji captures the two successors of his greatest rival.

Make no mistake: this is a story about gentleness.

Their kidnappers had guns. Katsuki may have only been 5 years old, yet he wasn't dumb. He knew he wouldn't stand a chance. So, he watched the men leave, internally cursing at himself for not being able to do anything. A loud clank resonated inside the room as he and 13 other kids were officially locked in.

From beside him, Izuku, in a very wet, shaky voice, asked: “Kacchan, what would All Might do?”

Alt: 12 years prior to canon, 58 kids are kidnapped across Japan. Amongst the unlucky ones are Bakugou, Midoriya, and Shinsou, who are soon after forced to undergo training to become villains. However, nothing goes according to the League's plans - and the kidnappings end up causing a massive butterfly effect.
