Nobody keeps winning the way bkdk does, and considering that is a CORE FACET OF THEIR STORY I don’t know why we were ever surprised

Where Kodamas Live

Katsuki Bakugo x gn Reader

Hiking Date

part of a small series I just started, these dates can be read as one shots or all existing in the same universe [quick read; wc: .7k]

You've never had issues keeping up with people while hiking, but for the first time you could swear it takes you two steps for every one of Katsuki Bakugo’s. On top of the pace, he hasn’t stopped for a break in the hour you’ve been trudging up the hill.

“How much further?” you ask, breath betraying the calm demeanor you’d been trying to put on.

He laughs slightly, “almost there, I promise.”

He said that twenty minutes ago too.

It really is beautiful out here, you think. The golden light layering through the trees. Making the air look heavier than it is. Places like this make the existence of kodamas seem not so far fetched.

When he asked you to go on a hiking date to watch the sunset you weren’t sure where you’d end up. Sure, you know a lot of places but most of the ones with good views would all be overrun with people this time of year. Not the most appealing location for two well-known heroes to go on a date. You’d rather spend time getting to know him than running from the inevitable following you’d attract.

You haven’t seen a single person out here. Although, you’re not completely convinced this is a real trail - most of it is overgrown. He looks confident in his trajectory though, so you continue to follow. 

A few branches brush against your legs but you hardly notice them anymore. You’re getting used to it. Your body is beginning to get used to is speed too, relaxing into the movement. Just as you begin to think you can maintain this, he comes to a stop. 

Stepping over the last few rocks and tree roots, you finally catch-up to him.

The trail abruptly ends, opening to a rocky clearing on the side of a cliff. From here, you can see everything. The forest you’ve just run through. The city gleaming faintly in the distance. 

He pulls a small blanket from his backpack before laying it out on the ground. You take the chance to drink some of your water before taking a seat next to him. 

As the golden glow deepens, the warm light illuminates the tip of every tree beneath you. The river burns red like lava snaking through the valley.

His hand reaches over yours, grazing your pinky before linking a few fingers with you. The touch sends a thrill through your body. Up to now, the rush to make it in time for the sunset masked any nerves you might have had about going on a date with Bakugo. Here you are now, with no distractions. 

Maybe you should say something, you think. The two of you haven’t talked much since getting to the trailhead side of the road. He looks uncharacteristically calm though. Orange and pink light reflecting from his face. Only now does it occur to you why he brought you here: it’s where he can feel at peace. He wanted to share that with you. 

You decide against interrupting his experience with words and opt to tip your head onto his shoulder. He smirks, wrapping one arm around you to pull you closer.

The two of you sit like this until orange fades to pink. 

To purple. 

Into a deep blue, specks of stars beginning to form.

“We should probably head back,” he whispers, thinly veiling his disappointment the moment is ending. The weight of his arm leaves your back, leaving a coolness in it’s absence.

The walk back feels much more leisurely. The lack of a rush allows you to notice more this time around. White wildflowers tucked into the forest glow under your light. Every shadow moving along with you. The way he moves adeptly through the woods like he does this all the time.

By the time you reach the car, you’re exhausted but so refreshed. The drive home continues just as quietly. Not awkward, more tranquil. It’s a nice break from day to day life.

In spite of most of the evening being spent in silence, you leave feeling like you know another side of him.

Little hiking adventure in the fall colors

1/1/24

Today my love and I went for a short hike.

We wanted to do a longer one but my seizures were pretty hectic this morning so I had to sleep until about 12 and couldn’t really function until about 4pm, also there was a sign for a cougar siting in the area so we wanted to get back before the sun started to go down, this meant we only had time for the shorter hike this time,

After the hike we went grocery shopping together and then came home and made home made macaroni and cheese with salad. We also shared a cream soda.

Now I’m working on cleaning the rat cages and hoping to still have time for some art before bed.

I think the first day of 2024 has been a good one.

I hope you all had a good first day of the year as well, but if you didn’t, there is always tomorrow to try again.

“On many systems, the stinger is actually considered a delicacy,” started Tech as they kept hiking.

Before he knew it, they had spent the better part of the day walking through the forest, planting monitors into the dirt, with Tech telling her stories about his experiences with Clone Force 99 and Sjael excitedly asking for more.

Loved practicing new drawing tools for this.
