“Hell’s the matter with you?”
He asked you that some few moments ago, and you meant to answer (really, you did), but the response got lost in your thoughts—or lack thereof—as you cackled. In the whole world, it figured that you would happen to wear the same costume as Bakugou Katsuki. Though, to be fair, you never would have clocked him as someone who would wear a costume as intricate as this one. Not that a robe, belt, and like two props made something intricate to most people.
“Aren’t you, like, way too cool to be dressed up for Halloween?” you ask him, clutching your chest dramatically while you finally come down from your hysterics.
He rolls his eyes, arms folded over his chest. You can tell he’s trying to be pissed and not acknowledge the compliment inherent in your question based on the deep crease between his eyebrows and the wrinkles forming on the bridge of his nose.
“Sure he is!” Kirishima says as he comes to Bakugou’s side. “It’s for that exact reason that I had to drag him here against his will.”
“Oh, that makes sense. Plus, it’s not like a reaper can do the job alone, so I guess we’re basically co-workers now.”
He looks like he’s about to explode, so the goofy grin on your face broadens. While Bakugou might appear tortured and angry to any onlooker, the fact that he starts conversations with you and carries them on time and time again tells a starkly different story—one that makes your skin tingle with excitement. You, subsequently, are increasingly eager to press his buttons.
“Like I would—”
“Guys!” Kaminari bursts into the bubble of your little group. “Have you had these? They’re shaped like bats, see?” He hands you a sugar cookie. You notice that Bakugou is about to tell him off, but he continues, “Heeeeey, wait a second. Are you guys matching?”
“No, we are not—”
“Yes, we are!”
You strike a pose beside Bakugou, holding onto his bicep as you do.
“Damn, that’s cold. You know Kirishima asked him to wear matching costumes with him—”
“I did, yes, that’s true.”
“—and he said no, so this is a little brutal.”
“In his defense, it wasn’t on purpose,” you say. You hold up your hand, and stage whisper behind it to Kaminari: “If we don’t stop making fun of him, he’ll leave.”
“Oh… yeah, you’re right…Bakugou…you can do whatever you want, obviously.”
“Tch…course I can. Not my fault if extras like this one,” he emphasizes the label by bumping his arm against you, almost shaking you off but not quite, “can’t help but feel like copyin’ me.”
This, ordinarily, would be your cue to give him another witty comeback, but you were too busy thanking the lord that it was already warm in this room because you knew the heat radiating from you must have been tangible. The way he’s looking at you is heavy: ruby eyes glinting from beneath his lashes and deeply furrowed blond brow, the sly wisp of a smirk ghosting over his lips. The tip of his tongue pokes from the corner of his mouth, revealing his teeth just slightly until his lips part in surprise when you finally do respond.
“You wish I were copying, huh? I planned this at least two weeks ago, so, if anyone’s copying, you are copying me, Katsu.”
You have never wished you had a photographic memory more: his face is pink, eyes wide and empty, mouth pressing into a thin line to hide the way he’d previously been gaping dumbly like a fish.
“He lets you call him that?” Kaminari’s eyebrows soar, eyes glittering with excitement.
“He does not!” Kirishima says, and he tosses his head back in a rich, proper laugh. “Look at his face. Bro, chill, you’ll blow a head gasket.”
“He’s never stopped me, actually. He usually just makes that face.” You take a risk and pat his cheek playfully, watching the plush flesh bounce back. A bout of impish oohs and ahs swells at your gesture and dissolves again into laughter.
“I’ll blow your fuckin’ face off, idiot,” Bakugou mumbles. He clearly means for it to come out in his signature explosive shout, but he’s too busy pouting to go all the way with it.
“That’s the spirit! Grim reapers live for death. Unfortunately, I—as your colleague and fellow reaper—cannot die, so you’ll have to choose someone else to blow up this time.”
You turn away to go find something more to drink, but you’re stopped by a strong hand on your forearm.
His words are a low growl in your ear: “This ain’t over, got it?”
You look at his side profile and blink cluelessly. “Not sure what you mean…if there’s something you want to say, you’ll have to just say it.”
Pleased with yourself, you tug out of his grip and head off just as you had planned, giddy that the evening seemed to be taking a very interesting turn.

Beomgyu stopped strumming abruptly as rhythmic thuds sounded against his window. Setting his guitar down gently on his bed he made his way to the covered window, desperately hoping that the crow he had lovingly named chicken wing wasn’t attempting to break in again as toto wasn’t exactly pleased with a strange bird flying around Beomgyu’s room. Beomgyu parted the curtains and peered out into the darkening sky. As he was looking out his window a grey object hit his window with a soft thump. Furrowing his eyebrows the boy pushed the glass screen up and began to slide the screen out of the way. Just as he had a clear view of his yard he was hit in the face with a soft lump. “Ow what the?” laughter was heard as y/n giggled “there you romeo!"
Beomgyu looked at his best friend, a bag of what looked like balled up socks sitting at her feet. “What the hell are you doing?” The girl smiled brightly before lobbing another sock at him “trying to get your attention.” Despite the growing smile on his face Beomgyu shook his head softly “Why didn’t you just text me?” the girl rolled her eyes “because that’s lame.” she huffed. “Now are you coming or what?” Beomgyu stared at her. “What do you mean?” y/n grinned “We’re going on an adventure.”
I’ve seen a lot of people talk about Luke sitting in front of his own Missing Person poster but did anyone see the poster that said “Unfinished Business The Orpheum”?
𝐓𝐗𝐓 𝐈𝐌𝐀𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐄 — what choi beomgyu would be like as a boyfriend
▸ listen to ride with me by pink sweat$
「 headcanons 」
okay i know that these boyfriend posts have literally never been consistent (like ever) and i’ve decided i’m just going to go with the flow and write what i want because they’re my posts and i just want to vent about how cute beomgyu is so that’s what i’m doing.
we have to talk about playing with his hair. like it’s a must. he’s definitely the guy who, whenever he comes over, he just flops onto your bed like he belongs there and then he tugs you on top of him for cuddles. bonus points if you reach up and run your hands through his hair until he falls asleep.
beomgyu also really likes holding hands with you. he holds your hands the most when you’re upset or anxious, and he does that thing with his thumbs where he moves them back and forth over the back of your hand to comfort you.
i feel like beomgyu is definitely the type of boyfriend to make fun of you all the time, but it never comes from a malicious place. he just really adores you and think you have the most adorable face when you’re angry or embarrassed. he’s always squishing your cheeks!
he definitely takes you to get boba all the time. he knows your order by heart.
you’re not super close with the boys, but they definitely hear about you all the time. beomgyu is always gushing about you, no matter how often the other members make fun of him (lovingly of course) for it.
「 cute nicknames for you 」
little princess — usually sarcastic, but it always makes you blush and that’s why he likes it so much
sunshine — also sarcastic sometimes, usually used for good morning texts or greeting you when you see each other in person
cutie — most commonly used, always genuine because he always thinks you look so cute
sweet pea — used whenever you’re feeling upset in any way (mostly when you’re sad)
「 favorite date 」
some people might think it’s boring, but one of your and beomgyu’s favorite things is staying in and having movie nights. they’re the perfect remedy for a stressful day, with lots of soft blankets and throw pillows arranged in a pile in your living room. you light your favorite scented candles (vanilla and coffee) while beomgyu brings the snacks (usually fresh strawberries and soft pretzels). regardless of how either of you are feeling, you always end up so much more relaxed by the end of the movie.
sometimes you have dinner together like that (usually take out, but sometimes you cook together) or you put on face masks and beomgyu braids your hair for you. he’s gotten pretty good at it since you taught him how. one of gyu’s favorite things is when you fall asleep on his shoulder. he loves everything about your movie nights, but his favorite part is carrying you to bed to cuddle after the movie ends.
Fall in love with ordinary. Fall in love with the everyday. Fall in love with brown eyes and small towns and a hand full of dandelions. Discover. Discover the crevices. Read the books that aren’t so popular, by little known authors who have a lot to offer. Listen to music that makes you think. Choose art that is buried in the corner of galleries, or on the street.
Teach yourself to love the small things. The special but unnoticed things. Teach yourself how the ordinary is not so ordinary after all.
