Hello! Thank you so much for this request and for being so patient! I loved writing this and hope you enjoy.
KIRISHIMA EIJIROU
❀ Kirishima's love language is and will always be acts of service. While he is an extremely physical person, doing things for the one he loves makes him feel like he's doing what you would enjoy.
❀ When he first realized he had fallen for you, he would always do small things for you, usually things that he would focus on getting done rather than the task at hand for him. He wanted to show you his appreciation, so he would give you compliments, help with whatever you were doing at the time, or figure out a complication you might be struggling with. (Even if it ends up stumping him too)
❀ He always found it strange that you were so appreciative of things that he barely took time to do, even if he meant them wholeheartedly. He's a little confused at how emotional you get and eventually asks you why.
❀ He'll be taking you out to dinner on a special occasion, your anniversary. He would have prepared a beautiful location and meal he knows is specifically crafted to your tastes. Everything about the event has been intricately done. He picks you up in the evening and notices your overjoyed smile and small, minuscule tears of happiness at the tiny flower he gives you. He's confused at first, why would you be excited over a flower? Did he really not do as much for you as he thought?
❀ When you reassure him it's simply because you haven't been given this amount of attention and service in past relationships or throughout your life, he's upset. Upset that he didn't realize sooner. But he makes a vow to you on that very same night he would do anything to make you happy, and he hopes he can teach you to slowly become used to the things he does for you.
BAKUGOU KATSUKI
❀ Bakugou's love language in your relationship - to say the least - is extremely complicated. In its own way, of course. He doesn't openly admit his feelings, but there are small cues he gives you to help assure you he cares. Cooking your favorite meals, taking care of you when you get sick, buying and styling your outfits, and doing his best to make you comfortable in any scenario or setting you find yourself in. All while grumbling, of course.
❀ As the relationship with him progresses things become less messy and abrupt. He plans dates to make sure he does the best for you. After all, he's surprised you would be with someone like him, especially with his attitude. Part of him is guilty he can say such crude things towards you, so he mentally apologizes and gives you small gifts and random intervals.
❀ He comes home after a long day of work, often expecting things to move much smoother with you than it usually does at his agency. He gets frustrated easily by the work ethic and quality of other heroes and workers by his side, so he's not in the greatest mood to do a lot of things for you. You'll guide him to the bathroom and help him wash his hair, running your fingers through his scalp as he hums his appreciation to you.
❀ It's when he really sees the things you've done since coming home that afternoon, that he feels slightly guilty about completely neglecting to do the major things he usually does for you. You've set out his washing neatly, cooked dinner and gotten him something to drink, put on his favorite movie to play in the background, and drawn the curtains to block out any sunlight, hoping to prevent him from getting a headache.
❀ He spends a small amount of time in the kitchen making your favorite drink, coming up behind you as finalize your preparations, and handing it to you with a tired, yet loving smile. You take the cup with a small frown, covering the tears pooling in your eyes. He's concerned, thinking somethings wrong until you assure him you're just happy with what he's done for you. He promises to do much, much more for you in the future and makes sure you feel loved at every point he's near.
KAMINARI DENKI
❀ Kaminari is definitely someone who has random, impulsive bursts whenever he's around you. The atmosphere is never too calm when you're with him, he'll always pull you into a random conversation or constantly joke around until he's sure he can see a smile on your face, the face he loves so much.
❀ He can be a very needy person at times, so he hates leaving you alone to do practically everything, from going to work as a hero to spending time with his friends and family. It usually takes a few minutes of convincing and bribery to get him away from you, not that you hate it, but you assure him everyone has responsibilities they need to attend to, even him.
❀ After quite a long few days of being around him, it takes a little bit of convincing to finally push him when his friends ask to hang out. He'd love to spend time with him, but he's afraid you might feel lonely or lost without his constant jokes, conversations, and affirmations of his love and devotion to you. But he eventually agrees, knowing you would feel a lot better if he spent time with the people he loved.
❀ It's hard for him to not think of you while he's gone, considering he thinks of every moment of his day he possibly can. He's excited and relieved you even agreed to be in a relationship with someone like him. He's often shared his insecurities with you, worried if he doesn't show enough love he might leave you for someone he thinks is more capable, the friends he looks up to like Kirishima, Sero, or even Bakugou.
❀ So when he returns home, he's reminded of this and brings you a small present, something like a snack he knows you have been craving recently, or an item he saw you admire from a shop window in one of your many spontaneous dates with him. When he hands it to you at the door with a loving kiss and smile, he notices how emotional you seem to become. He can be worried he did something wrong until you assure him of the reason, and he showers you in all the affection he can possibly give you, making sure you know how much he loves you.
this is for shigaraki, bakugo, midoriya, tsuyu and kirishima & is entirely superfluous world building bc i spend too much time on studygram. it’s roughly around season 3 just for league & campus living situations, there’s no content warnings or reader insert/ships. is roughly 1k words total (200~ ish each)
shigaraki
frankly it’s a mess, notes strewn across the table many stacked precariously on the pc tower that takes up the right side of the desk, along with the fan perched next to it in attempts to keep it cool. there’s a few cd cases from old games, cables and a broken controller strewn in the corner; but the main thing covering the desk is notes. from detailed logs of hero’s schedules and abilities to top secret stolen documents, they’ve all been meticulously worked on then left together in the state of somewhat organised chaos that shigaraki naturally lives in. on the floor under the desk there’s a few things stacked up, a bin, an empty box with anti-theft tags still attached from some recent tech addition and a few broken keyboards, left around just in case he has time to fix the damaged space bar switches.
the space above his desk is mostly empty, there’s marks in the drywall where a shelf was once attached to the wall and a few posters of video game characters dotting the space (think byleth from fire emblem: three houses beach costume).
bakugo
it’s quite neat, a cream tablecloth covers the standard ua desk and is pined down at each corner to prevent it slipping. the two main objects on the desk are a small file cabinet to the left and a raised ergonomic laptop stand that sits in the centre of the desk, a 60% bluetooth keyboard slotted neatly underneath. there are a few smaller items dotted around the desk; a case containing some earbuds to use when studying that’s pushed to the back when not in use, a monthly flip calendar with events and assignments scribbled in atop the file cabinet, a coaster which normally has a cup of strong black coffee placed on it and two photos in minimalistic black frames.
his desk faces the window so there’s no wall space above it, there is however a small allmight standee on the windowsill. his desk chair has a lower back cushion strapped to it, to aid good posture while writing, with a corresponding footrest underneath the desk.
midoriya
the whole rooms covered in allmight memorabilia, and the desk is no exception. that being said most the items that fill the desk are what you would expect; just very branded. a well-stocked pencil case, mostly filled with pens or highlighters, not a pencil in sight. also, no white out, if there’s a mistake drawing a diagram in his notes it’s just getting drawn over with the same pen in the hopes the correction is clear [it’s not]. there’s a lamp to the side of his desk, which is surprisingly not allmight branded but has different colour light settings to help reduce blue light strain when studying at unreasonable hours at night.
the walls are all covered with allmight posters, yet the space above his desk is a little different with most of it designated to a huge monthly calendar which he crosses off the days on as they pass, key events both in school deadlines and the pro hero world scribbled on in colour coded markers. any space in between the posters is filled by photos with his friends, there’s a few photos of him and bakugo as little kids up there. anything up on the walls is held up with high tech zero damaged tacks, no pinholes to be found in these posters.
tsuyu
the standout item on the otherwise green and wood toned room is a pale blue humidifier on her desk, it’s shaped like a cloud! there’s quite a lot of things cluttering up her desk space, a little analogue alarm clock with a brass bell at the top, a stack of books- some to read for leisure some as part of hero training all piled up together- and a pot of pens, pencils and highlighters filled to the brim. there’s a few novelty pens in the mix, as they’re often given as gifts by mina, but they all use black ink, the highlighters are generally left forgotten.
the wall above the desk is covered in closely stacked wooden shelves, not just containing desk paraphernalia. they’re stacked with plants throughout, with one row of shelves designated to dining ware and plates (although it’s mostly cute mugs), another further filled with books- journals, textbooks, a few photo albums, with the upmost shelf filled with whatever’s left including a precariously placed camera. the small space between the desk and shelves has a fair few photo strips pinned into it, as well as class 1a’s year group photo.
kirishima
there’s not many school supplies on kirshima’s desk aside from a small pot of pens and pencils, they’ll end up ‘folded’ in his bag overnight, unless it’s exam season. he does most of his studying with his friends in the library, so his room and desk are more dedicated to relaxing and time off. his computers set up to the side of his desk and is seemingly eternally left in sleep mode; much to the chagrin of the parts that keep it going barely. there’s a keyboard and mouse left on the desk, both with neon red backlighting, often in a tangle of wires. most of the time at his desk is spent playing games with friends, it’s the main way he keeps in touch with everyone from middle school! vanishing for hours on end to play animated games of cs:go or minecraft. the aforementioned pot of pens often ends up knocked over amidst energetic celebrations.
the space above his desk is dominated by a huge crimson riot poster, with a similarly sized promotional poster off to the side. it’s from recent action film, he was only able to grab it since he saw it on the last day in cinemas! there’s quite a few photos pinned in between the two posters, they’re mostly from when he got disposable cameras with mina and sero; although he gave quite a few of the prints away to the people who he took them with.
