Hi! I was wondering if you could help me find a fic I’ve been looking for! It was an AU where Baku & Deku didn’t know each other in person but they both played an online MMORPG type of game where they met. They got “married” in game. Then Deku had to move suddenly & wasn’t able to tell Bakugou about it first. He stopped playing the game, years go by & he logs back in for the first time in years to find that his in game “husband” has been playing the whole time, now has a party, & is upset that Deku stopped playing very suddenly with no explanation. I’m pretty sure it was an unfinished (at the time) multichap fic but I’m not 100% sure about that so I could be wrong. I remember reading part of it a few months ago & I can’t remember the title for the life of me so it’d be cool if you could help me solve that mystery! Btw I was very happy to see this blog is back! I was sad that it seemed to have died, it was kind of my gateway into bkdk fic when I first joined the fandom & introduced me to so many of my now all time favs :)
Premise: stellar. Gamer-lad AU is about to steal my lil' soul thanks to this fic.
Mystery solved (or should I head back to the gay digi-shelves) ?

It's been eight years since Izuku last logged in. When he gets the chance to do so, he discovers that he's married to a user named Ground Zero. Apparently, the husband he's had eight years ago 「 King Explosion Murder 」 patiently waited and has somehow not divorced him. Also, for some reason said husband is now a professional player.
Or the one wherein Izuku learns about the horrors of online — not really — dating.
Lights. Camera. Hero! by brichibi
( E | 23,248+ | 6/? )
If there’s one thing Izuku Midoriya’s good at, it’s dreaming big, and dreaming hard. That’s why he’s in Hollywood, of all places, his hometown an entire ocean away along with his graduating high school class and single mother. But he’s gonna be an actor, an international sensation, a superstar like no other.
He just.
Has to convince the rest of the world.
Which is, admittedly, a difficult task.
[AU where “My Hero Academia” is an upcoming television series, everyone’s an actor/actress, and romance happens behind the scenes]
Do you happen to know of any AUs where either Kacchan or Deku (or both) are singers/vocalists?
Hello! Here’s what I found.

Singer Bakugou
The Space Between by Kanae_vR ( M | 77,012+ | 13/23 )
Holding his expensive camera tightly between his hands, Midoriya Izuku looked up at the once-white letters displayed on the black storefront banner. “The Hard Luck Bar,” he murmured to himself, unsure if he was getting ready to enter or flee.
Amateur photographer Midoriya Izuku is stuck in a rut and desperate for a change of pace. Deep in his city’s grimy underbelly, he finds exactly what he’s looking for in the form of an underground punk sensation on the verge of their big break, fronted by a foul-mouthed firework of a human being.
Loud, brash and passionate, Izuku may have just found the creative spark he needed, as well as something new to set his soul ablaze.
Blinding Lights by homojaku ( E | 23,985+ | 6/13 )
Bakugou Katsuki is a pop singer and Izuku goes to almost every single concert he has. It comes as a shock when he discovers that Bakugou’s real personality is a lot different from his stage personality.
Bombing King by brichibi ( E | 4,154+ | 3/? )
Izuku Midoriya is a top student at a prestigious university who, like many others, listens to music while he studies. While looking for a new CD with his friends, he discovers the lyrical stylings of one Katsuki Bakugou, a rather aggressive musician who definitely earns that “parental advisory” label. It’s not something Midoriya would listen to. No. Certainly not. He’s not buying his CD. He’s not watching his interviews. And he, most definitely, is not crushing on him.
Right?
[AU where Bakugou’s a rock star and Midoriya is quickly becoming his number one fan]
Band Name What Band Name by keepingtimewithmusic ( G | 6,246+ | 6/7 )
Izuku has played Classical all his life but has had a secret obsession with Rock music. His mentor signs him up to audition for a Band to broaden his horizons. It’s Izuku’s luck that the Lead member just so happens to be his childhood friend/bully.
I Don’t Care (I Love It) by a_genderfluid_otter ( T | 1,208 | 1/1 )
Every year at the local battle of the bands concert, the last three to survive the eliminations have to pick a song outside of their genre to perform. After last year’s “technically not punk rock” selection from the Bakusquad, Izuku is pretty sure that he’s going to have to sit through his comeptition’s new attempt at not exploring new genres.As always, the Bakusquad (and, specifically, its lead singer), know how to defy expectations.

Untitled by ALonelyGod ( G | 2,915 | 1/1 )
Katsuki Bakugou sings about love found and love lost.
Edit since I suck balls with summaries:
The voice of an angel, a person who loved him most, Katsuki Bkuou had it all… until a tragedy took it all away. Now he stands on a stage in front of millions, to get back up and to sing his heart out for forgiveness to the one person he’s ever loved.

Electric Lights by Aniimone ( M | 26,308 | 4/4 )
An explosive playboy working towards a degree in pyrotechnics develops an interest in the cute musician who plays at the bar he works at. Said cute musician ends up being a little more than the aggressive bartender bargained for. They warn you about biting off more than you can chew, but sometimes beasts have eyes bigger than their stomachs.

ELEMENTS by reijeux ( T | 45,270 | 20/20 )
In a world where quirks exist, the entertainment industry reigns supreme. Also, Midoriya Izuku and Bakugou Katsuki are in the same boyband.
Chapter 20 is a trivia chapter.

All Because You Are My Hero by bluelove22 ( T | 66,378 | 10/10 )
*Manga spoilers!* The Cultural Festival is approaching, and after much discussion Class 1-A has been split into three teams: band, staging, and dance. However, when the band team seems to be having trouble picking music for the performance Izuku surprises everyone with a talent no one knew he had (aka songwriter, singer, and dancer !Izuku).
Magnolia Dreams by ElopeToTheSea ( T | 7,098 | 1/1 )
“Kaachan!” Deku’s voice. Sweet and cheerful, like a midday breeze. He was looking at him with those big bright green eyes, holding a flower crown in his hands. “Look what I did!”
“What’s that, Deku?” he asked. He was five, flower crowns weren’t something he was familiar with.
“Mom taught me how to make them,” he replied, placing the flower crown on top of his head. “They’re called flower crowns! I made mine of Magnolias!”
“They’re so lame,” he snickered. The field they were sitting on was covered in flowers. From white lilies to purple orchids. They all bloomed in spring. “A true crown is made of metal, idiot!”

Hello! I found a fic on your blog not too long ago but now I can’t find it 😫 It was BakuDeku and Bakugou is a musician who performs in a coffee shop that Todoroki works in. Izuku moved to the town and made friends when he got there, and he recognized Bakugou when he performed one day. It was an Animal Crossing AU and I think it was finished. I went through the musician masterlist and tried searching through your blog, but I couldn’t find it. If you could help, I would be super thankful!
Hello! Here it is! We’re so sorry it was so hard to find on our blog ;~; The Tumblr search function isn’t very good, and we missed this fic when making the musician list because it wasn’t tagged asldkfsldfslj

Chorale by KingofPotet ( G | 15,963 | 7/7 )
Midoriya Izuku moved to Yuuei, a small village with (mostly) friendly people, and made new friends. Izuku thinks he rather likes it, especially when the traveling guitarist swoops in and snatches his heart at eight o'clock one Saturday night.
There's this fic I read a while back and I can't remember the name or who wrote it, Izuku is a photographer and Katsuki is a model for, a very popular one, and Izuku is in charge of taking pictures of Katsuki for the magazine, and it's mostly bakudeku but there is some shindeku, and I was wondering if you know that story? I've been meaning to read it again but I can't find it
Hello! This was the closest thing I found (the only other photographer Izuku/model Bakugou fic was a PWP), but Shinsou isn’t in it at all and the writer abandoned it after the first chapter. Maybe it wasn’t listed anywhere in the tags or description? That always makes it nearly impossible to find it. Or it was deleted, which I hope isn’t the case.
there are a million things to run from, but i’m not one of them by Seitos_Irony ( T | 3,961 | 1/1 )
Soulmate! AUBakugou Katsuki is a firm ideologist in the belief that winners conquer everything and losers gain nothing. He’s lived his life with an explosive demeanor and icy heart, and even as a model, he refuses to lighten up for the sake of public image. There is little that can change him, and nothing that can shake him- until he meets an insecure photographer whose fingers shake behind flash, but whose eyes shine stronger than anyone he’s ever met before.Oh, and who makes a soulmark spring up on Bakugou’s wrist the second their eyes meet.[In which Bakugou has no idea what secrets Midoriya Izuku is hiding, but he’s determined to find out and in doing so discovers that sparks don’t just come from cameras.]
