Fic Finder 101

Hey y’all! I’ve gotten a lot of fic finding requests in my inbox over the past few months, (Yay!) so I'm excited to help y’all and discover/rec some great new fics in the process!

In order to make things a smidge easier on myself, I’m making this post to clarify a few things that are helpful to include when submitting a Fic Finder ask:

AO3 Only. I don't look for or read fic elsewhere (i.e. Wattpad, etc.) and am very, very familiar with their website, so I prefer to only rec fics that are posted to Archive of our Own. If you can't remember what platform you read a fic on, just know that there is a possibility that I may not be able to find it.

Details, details, details! If you can list specific dialogue, scenes, settings, plot points that stuck out to you these are all very helpful. For example, great details to include would be something like: "Oneshot Coffee Shop!AU where Pro Hero Katsuki falls in love with Quirkless Barista Izuku at first sight and asks Izuku to make him Deku's favorite drink every morning. He keeps coming back even though he hates the taste of coffee. There was a lot of fluff and pining and it had a happy ending where they moved in together. Bakugou finds out that Izuku knew he didn't like the drink the whole time and kept notes, making it a little different each day until he did."

Include your @. It is understandable that you may not want your username included in posts! However the reason I request this is so that I can message you if I am having issues finding your fic or have questions while searching for it. If you would still like your post to remain anonymous when posted, start your message with "anon please" or something along those lines and I will be sure not to include it.

Read Date. If you are able to give me a rough estimate of how long is has been since you read the fic, that is helpful for me to narrow down results.

I realize that not everyone will be able to provide everything on this list, so don't fret if your answers to most of these are "I don't know." I will still do my best to find that fic you've been looking for!

Helloooo everyone! I thought I would pop back in to give everyone an update and noticed that I have somehow amassed quite a few more followers than I expected in my time away?! Thanks for that y'all!

Now that the manga is over and everyone is turning to fic more than ever before (myself included), I will be re-dedicating time toward this blog! I am slowly compiling my (personal) best of all time list and am excited to share some incredible authors and works with you all.

If you would like to submit fics for potential recs as well, feel free to do so and I will start putting together a community favorites rec list!

Also, please note that if you’ve sent me an ask looking for a specific fic for Fic Finder, I promise I’m trying my best to find them in my free time when I am able, but it can be very difficult with limited info. Thank you for bearing with my patiently!

Despite the manga ending, the past few years I've spent in this fandom have been so wonderful, so I hope that this blog will only grow as time moves on.

I'm off to rec y'all some killer fanfic, now. <3 Bye!

Hey! So this is a super long shot but I’m looking for a fic I read eons ago and can’t find anywhere. It’s bkdk with villain bk and possibly (?) pro hero Deku. I do remember that it was omega verse, they were mated, and it was the first time either of them had seen each other in a while because Baku switched sides. Pretty sure it was either a one shot or just relatively short, but I can’t find it and it’s driving me mad. Can you help?

Hi!! Thank you for the ask! I hate it when fics get lost to memory. The one I found for you was originally posted in 2018, but it sounds like the author had removed it from the archive for a while before reuploading. Maybe this is why it’s been so hard to find!

I haven’t finished reading it, but judging from the first few paragraphs I’m fairly certain that this is the fic you’re looking for:

He knows how Katsuki thinks, talks, and fights. He knows how he sleeps, how he eats, how he loves, and how he leaves. And he knows what knows what it means for Katsuki to come back; has washed the evidence from the sheets countless times, scrubbed the scent of him off his skin in the morning until it’s as red and raw as his heart.

Katsuki shoves his hands into the pockets of his joggers and tilts his chin up, eyes narrowed like he’s looking for a fight. “I’m here to share some important villain intel with the number one Hero. So, invite me to stay for dinner.”

Hello you! I have recently gotten back into bnha and this is a list of some of my favorite bkdk fics I have ever read to start this blog off right! I was even able to dig up an old fic I lost years ago! Let me know if you have any rec requests.

All the fics in this rec list have 2 things in common!

They are completed fics.

They are beautifully written.

Now, now, off you go and get reading!

Midoriya and Bakugou wind up in the very last position either of them thought they'd be in: Hero Partners. It's not fun, but they learn to cope. Their first big assignment together takes them undercover to infiltrate a cult, but the situation turns out far more sinister than they first thought.

(Or: Midoriya and Bakugou pretend to be Fake Married, join a cult, start having sex, and learn not to suck as partners, not necessarily in that order.)"

Katsuki's never been one for gentle words, but from the wild panic in Deku's face, he knows this is the time for it.

"Deku—" The weapon presses a little harder against Katsuki's forehead and he stops, getting his bearings. "Fine. Midoriya, then. Look. I'm not going to hurt you. I swear. I'm just looking for some answers I'm hoping you can provide."

After a battle gone awry leaves Katsuki stranded, he seeks out one of the few people he really trusts: Deku. Except when he finds his hero partner, he looks completely different, and the first thing he does is put a gun to Katsuki's forehead. So that's different.

Canon-divergent future fic where Katsuki gets sent to a parallel universe during a villain battle. One where Izuku's a cop instead of a pro hero, and Katsuki himself has been dead since middle school. In a world that's different enough to be strange and similar enough to be familiar, Katsuki does whatever it takes to find his way home.

Izuku has been talking to Stranger for about six months now and he’s only been crushing on him for like half of that.

Or

Deku and Bakugou met anonymously in a discord about Quirk Theory, became somewhat friends, and now they talk almost 24/7 without having a clue that they’re literally living under the same roof.

When Bakugou's suppressants get swapped for sugar pills at the very start of their heist, several things become clear: That their competition is sabotaging him and his team, and that they know he's an omega. It isn't long before the rest of the team finds out—

Primarily, their team leader, Midoriya.

hi do you know any bakudeku au where Katsuki is pro hero and he has a new secretary. But then she didn't know that Katsuki at Izuku are married. Then Izuku brought Katsuki lunch and the secretary was wary of Izuku.

Thank you!!! 💚🧡

Hi! Thank you for the ask, I'm so glad you reached out!

This was pretty adorable! I love a secret relationship moment, especially because these two idiots really do lend themselves to it well. If you are interested in more secret relationship fics or other fics similar to this one, feel free to let me know and I'll put together a rec list!

I am pretty sure this is what you're after, though. Let me know if I found it!

Fic rec is first, in case you don't want any spoilers and want to just dive right in. (Although I will try to keep review spoilers at a minimum.) Just note that it is incredibly angsty in the best way.

________

So, where to begin?

I have to say that I am so impressed by @majjale. The Night We Met is hands down one of the greatest pieces of writing I have had the pleasure of reading. If you're an angst-lover, then look no further. This fic is from 2018 (and completed), so I can't even begin to explain how blessed I was to stumble upon it. Not only does the story revolve around the concept of reincarnation and what it means to live forever, but it is also written from the point of view of our very own Katsuki Bakugou. Talk about angst! Could this story be more enticing?

Yes, it can!

You might think you were just getting into this for the angst, but that's where you'd be wrong. You're lured in by the staunch sincerity of Izuku and aloof defeat of Katsuki only to be pinned by the concentrated joy that underscores the happier moments they share together. The author weaves comedic moments, chance meetings, and internal monologues into a bittersweet blanket. She segues between points in time in a way that makes each sentiment Katsuki and Izuku share that much more poignant.

A striking moment of angst comes while Katsuki is trying to reconcile his desire for peace and his desire for love,

Whatever this life wants in return for Izuku knowing him, even with the trials—father, fiancé, friends — is it something Katsuki is willing to give up? What would Katsuki part with to hold Izuku again?

He blames the steam from the faucet for the condensation around his eyes.

What wouldn’t he give?

And another arrives as a tearful confession,

"I want to be why you’re happy, not why you’re alive.”

In moments like these it becomes clear that The Night We Met  is lathered in angst, but not the kind that hits you like a bus in a bad rom-com. This is the kind that envelops you slowly the way ivy snakes its arms around a tree. Then, when you finally reach the end - and especially after reading the one-shot epilogue, take me back -  you are left astonished, breathless.

Each chapter's end brings with it a short, sweet author's note.

"take a deep breath. in, out. that's it. it's gonna be okay."

A gentle reminder you made it through. Lungs working, heart pumping, tears falling. You feel relief and joy and sorrow. So empty and yet so full all at once.

Even days on, fleeting moments that hinge upon a simple wish will give you pause. Spotting a shooting star or cracking a wishbone. Blowing that stray eyelash off of the back of your hand. This is the kind of feeling I chase in fiction. The feeling of feeling. And few authors I have encountered have managed it so skillfully as Majjale.

do you find fics? like if someone is looking for a fic would you be able to list it as a rec? if not it’s ok, i’m on the hunt for a particular bkdk fic that i cant find

So, I started this blog months ago and then had a bunch of personal stuff pop-up before I really got things going, so I don’t really do much with this blog lately.

However, I have been meaning to get back to it! I haven’t ever tried to hunt down a fic for someone else yet, but I’d be more than happy to help if I can! @angeldevildevil Let me know what you remember about it and I’ll do my best digging.
