Tethered by shinycrash
Summary: Cherry blossoms carry new beginnings, they spur change. For Katsuki, spring is about resolutions as much as it is about embracing the past. It’s a journey he started with uncertain, admittedly small steps, but one particular moment always comes to mind this time of the year.
For Katsuki, spring is about Izuku.

ulterior motives by ladyofsnails
Summary: Katsuki had a problem. A problem in the form of the adorable, badass, selfless, selfish, kind, hot-as-fuck green haired nerd he’d known since they were both brats in hero-themed diapers (side note – the fuck kind of merch is diapers? Katsuki was going to confront All Might about that at some point. Weird as shit).
This adorable problem happened to be called Deku, and he also happened to be more oblivious than a squirrel running into oncoming traffic.

And That's The Problem by Roya1Gir1

The only thing he hasn’t done yet is grab his stupid cute ass face and kiss him.

Fool Me Twice? by @amarisllis
Summary: “Why would you mention that stupid game?” Bakugo says, his voice growing louder. “You said—thing I was scared of… And I—and he… Now he thinks I didn’t mean it.”
Kaminari feels ice spread through his whole body so quickly that it’s almost as if Todoroki froze him. The tiny crack in Katsuki’s voice rips right through him. Mina reaches out an arm towards Bakugo but stops just shy of touching him.
The room is so silent that they can hear the crickets outside. Kirishima recovers first, letting out a tiny gasp as he puts the pieces together. “You asked him out,” he whispers, equal parts awestruck and sad. “And then we… Oh, Katsuki, we’re so sorry. We didn’t—"

Katsuki is dared to do something he's afraid of, and it pushes him to go after the one person he wants. An ill-timed comment makes Izuku think that it all meant nothing. Kaminari tries to help clean up the mess.

Dating Your Rival, by Katsuki Bakugou. by purple_anonymous
Summary: Where the fuck do people even go for dates? Katsuki has never done anything romantic in his life except maybe watch the Lion King once. Unless he was going to run away because of his uncle’s betrayal for years till Deku finds him years later and they declare their love through song under a fucking waterfall, he had absolutely no idea where the fuck.
“So… how’d it go?”
Katsuki whirled around from his place at the door, clutching a hand to his chest, “WHAT THE FUCK?”
Kirishima motioned vaguely with his hand, “How’d it go?”
“HOW THE FUCK DID YOU GET IN MY ROOM?”

Hero Instinct by Ellessey
Summary: Deku has been maddeningly rocking onto the back two legs of his chair over and over, so it was only a matter of time before he went flying backwards. Lucky for him, Katsuki not only anticipated this, but is able to knock Deku back into place before he can smash his stupidly busy brain all over the floor.
“Oh, gosh! Thanks, Kacchan!” Deku says, his round face turned towards Katsuki.
“Sit still, I’m not catching you again,” he growls, a little irritated by the fact that he hadn’t actually made a conscious decision to catch him this time.

the floor ain't so bad (when you're looking up) by thispieceofmind
Summary: So it becomes a once a week thing, for a little while. If it were up to Katsuki, it would be every night, but there’s no way in hell he’d let Deku know he’s so keen on spending time with him – learning from him – nor would he be okay with losing so much sleep. This school is fucking tiring, if nothing else.
or, my take on the events that unfolded behind the scenes between midoriya and bakugou's fight at ground beta and the cultural festival. featuring a lot of wrestling in the common room, and dumb comments from none other than kaminari denki.

you can be selfish, for me by kauLikeCow
Summary: “Bro, I’m serious. He doesn’t talk like that to anyone else in the class.”
That earns him a narrowed glance from Bakugou. “No, that’s exactly what he does, he compliments everyone. He does that to you too, you should know. Always blabbing about how cool your hardening is,” he turns back to his desk, closing the open textbooks and neatly setting them aside on his bookshelf.
“Bakugou. He didn’t even notice I was here.”
Bakugou freezes, halfway through zipping up his backpack.
Kirishima smirks. Irrefutable evidence. “Dude, has it ever occurred to you that maybe, Midoriya’s compliments are actually genuine? Like he’s not just saying that shit. He sounds like he really means it,” he suggests, trying to keep his voice even and casual.
Bakugou doesn’t move, but his red eyes uncharacteristically widen, just the slightest bit.

An Appetite for Love by EnduringParadox
Summary: He should have been pretty capable in the kitchen, but Izuku confused the fuck out of Katsuki at every turn and he was no different in this respect. For Eri, Izuku once managed the miracle of making candied apples, and he was well-versed in making rice and eggs—scrambled, boiled, or fried. But for anything else, somewhere between his head and hands the nerd always seemed to fuck it up.
Concoctions that came out burnt or raw or dense or sticky. Katsuki had seen all sorts of abominations scraped into the garbage, and that's where they belonged. He wouldn't eat a single bite of it, but if he did—if Izuku just asked—he could tell him exactly where he'd gone wrong.
Izuku sucked shit at cooking. But if he was going to cook regardless, then why was he feeding everyone but Katsuki?

Setting up Camp by Oh_Taco
Summary: Katsuki needs to formulate a plan. There is no way the nerd is sleeping in a tent with Icy Hot.
Karasuno's first year as a third year (but without Tsukishima and Yamaguchi) So, I made this for contest and I got second place in it wewww Hinata Shouyo Hinata's height doesn't have big differences since he was a first year and pretty sad about it. He kind of wish he could have same height as his favourite, Little Giant, when he's grown up but unfortunately no. He also cutted his hair short and wear piercing because he kind of overheard some girls in his school, talk about how interested bad boys is. So, he is trying his best to look like one and surprise suprise, some girls actually like him. But whenever he gets compliment from other people, he got embarassed pretty quickly despite being a bad boy he is. Kageyama Tobio Kageyama still angry as usually when he's around Hinata because Hinata become much more annoying than he was in first year and getting on Kageyama's nerves. Kageyama kept his hair because Hinata challenged him last year to kept his hair as long as he can and feel his suffer with pretty annoying long hair. So, Kageyama accepted it and wanting to prove that long hair is not really difficult to handle and now he's kind of regretted it a bit but still doesn't want to give up. Kageyama also wear contact lens in volleyball match and glasses aside volleyball's activities because he watched too many volleyball's match on TV. Yachi Hitoka She's pretty popular in school and always getting chased by her fans. She actually still scared when people suddenly close to her especially long guys. But she kept her cool around people and then cry it all on Hinata or Kiyoko. She still in-contact with Kiyoko even Kiyoko's now in the college. She's pretty much BFF with her.
As third years, Hinata spends a lot more time studying so he can get into the same university as Kageyama on more than just a sports scholarship. This results in him falling asleep in the most random places (against windows, on his feet at stop lights, in the utility closet against a shelf, etc).
This causes Kageyama to start following him everywhere to make sure he doesn’t actually hurt himself.
The new first years created a game called “Where’s Hinata?” as a joke but the name stuck and only Hinata is clueless as to how it started.
