[insert any character to ur liking] headcanon pls? <3
*pushes up glasses* here you go 😏
Okay but I’m choosing Bakugou because I am nothing if not a Bakugou Katsuki love dispenser 😌
Anyway!! Bakugou crying but also being super dramatic for no good reason:
So Katsuki really only cries when he’s angry, but!! He’s just as much of an emotional crier as Deku. Like, any extreme emotion has tears streaming down his face. He’s always tried to hold it back, though, because crying is for the weak and all that nonsense, but anger just hits him so hard that he can’t stop the tears.
Time skip and Katsuki has started opening up a lot more to his friends and the people he trusts. He talks to them about his trauma, triggers, and regrets, and he’s met with love and care and support.
Now, that’s all well and good, except…
His body took that as permission to lose any semblance of control over his tear ducts.
So he’s starts crying. A lot more. Like, a lot more.
Cute animals? His eyes are wet.
Kiri calls him manly? His nose gets stuffy.
Glamouroki makes another appearance? River of Tears is open for business.
And he knows it doesn’t mean he’s weak, but that doesn’t stop him from feeling super insecure about his crying. (And he hates that he has this in common with Deku. It’s absolutely terrible. Terrible.)
But!!! Katsuki is nothing if not a problem solver, and his Problem Solving leads him to the best solution in the history of solutions:
And not that waterproof stuff.
No, Bakugou Katsuki wants his eyeliner to run streams of vermilion down his cheeks. He wants to evoke pure, unadulterated fear.
He wants students to flee from the sight of his that-animal-has-no-right-being-so-adorable tears. He wants villains to freeze at a glance of his you-hit-one-of-my-insecurities-dead-on cries.
(Not to mention, he feels like a badass when he sees himself. Like, crying what looks like blood? Looking scary? Other than being the number one hero, that’s all Bakugou Katsuki wanted out of life)
Plot twist: He gets this idea from something he used to do when he was younger: He watched a show where a girl’s mascara smeared in the rain, so he started wearing red eyeliner so that when he’d get into physical fights and arguments and started crying (either from pain or his emotions), he could use it as a trap card and scare the other kids away bc they thought he was a demon
(Also why is there no good synonym for tears??? Like??? That is absolutely atrocious of the English language to do.)
