Homecoming - by LostLoveLetters
"You're going to have a bad trip, baby."
Shouto's undercover case takes a turn for the worst.

When they rescue him, Shouto’s got a scrape on his cheek. That’s it. Just one scrape, and the rips in his hero suit.
Later, they’re gonna tell Katsuki one of the villains had a healing quirk. Later, Deku will put a hand on his shoulder and say It’s not your fault, Kacchan. (Later, Shouto will spend a full hour in the shower scrubbing himself clean, his skin pink and raw from the hot water and how many times he’s tried to wash the same spot.)
Now, Katsuki takes him home.
Or: It's not Katsuki's fault, but it does feel like his responsibility.
Hold Me Tight (don’t let go) - by cumroki (cumkuni)
“Congrats Icyhot, you’ve done this shit before. What, you want a medal?” Bakugou says to him and Shouto is confused now too. He furrows his eyebrows together.
“I don’t think I need a medal for that, Bakugou. I didn't do a lesson on it, I already said that. I mean I had to show the nurse where the bad man touched me so I know all about this already.” He says it so simply. Says it like he didn’t just tell everyone some man had bad touched him before.
[ In which class 1-A have to have a safeguarding class and Shouto reveals something to them all ]
For You I’d Bleed Myself Dry (Your Skin and Bones) - by cumkuni
He had been overseas helping with some big trafficking case when he was suddenly called back to Japan. No one would tell him a damn thing until he was back in the country and on the way to the agency in a black sleek car. What a terrible place to be told the love of your life has been kidnapped.

“Why would he do something like this?” Katsuki asks in a whisper, because he doesn’t understand. He’s spent a long time just thinking and analyzing the way Shouto has been the past month. There had been no indication that he was unhappy, no signs that he didn’t actually love Katsuki.
Eijiro is silent for a long time, frown on his face. “Honestly, it doesn’t seem like something Shouto would do. I actually didn’t believe it when you told me. There really wasn’t any reason for anyone to think he wasn’t happy or satisfied with you. He- he was in love with you. Everyone knew it.”
Only two weeks after their engagement, Shouto admits to Katsuki that he cheated on him.
Katsuki’s world falls apart.

“Where do the bruises come from?” Katsuki asks one day, a full month after their first conversation.
It takes Shouto a second to register the question, since it’s so casual that he wonders if he misheard. But Katsuki’s eyes are on his neck and Shouto touches the side of it absentmindedly, because even if he can’t see them, he knows the bruises there.
“My dad,” Shouto replies before he can stop himself, but he doesn’t feel a thing when he utters those words. It’s a hollow confession that carries no weight, and he’s not sure how he can say such a thing without even skipping a beat.
Or: Shouto learns to breathe with as much ease as it takes to kiss Katsuki.
