I PREDICTED THE BKDK HAND HOLD THIS CHAPTER NOM FUCKING NOM TAKE THE SOUP BITCH.
(Crooked fingers—bruised with scratches and scars, lining up and down, grasping at the air between them, reaching out, reaching out, reaching out— “Kacchan—!”) (A bloody hand—bruised with purple and torn skin, fingers clawing at the empty space keeping him from grasping back, as if time and space will tear themselves apart to bring them together, just once, just one time, one time, one time— “Deku—!”) (Two hands hold—two souls merge, somehow twist, and tangle further into one another; the universe Herself couldn’t split them apart even if she tried— She could kill one of them, drop them mercilessly onto the ground, chest gaping and face splattered with remorseless red, but she can’t do it without killing a part of the other, too. They cannot live in a world without the other.) A yellow figure appears before Katsuki—it’s tall, grand yet solemn; the burdened soul of the Symbol of Peace. “Ah.”

Now that Katsuki’s resurrected,
I just want to say that his death still hits hard.
Like we all knew he was going to be revived, but the pain that Izuku felt, the finality of Katsuki’s words, the alternative of him remaining dead?
I’m never letting go of that :0

blurred lines
Pairing: Bakugo Katsuki x Midoriya Izuku
WC: 1,280
Tags: hurt/comfort, sharing a bed, anxiety, dissociation, crying, one shot
Summary: Over the years they’ve spent at UA, Katsuki and Izuku have come to an understanding: they help each other sleep at night. What they have beyond that, they’re not sure. But they’re in it together.
Izuku sings Katsuki a song, and Katsuki tries to come to terms with his feelings.
Bonus: here’s the song cover that inspired this fic
youtube
Tumblr media
1.
It’s silent, the understanding they’ve grown to accept.
It always has been.
A hand reaches up in the dark and knocks softly on the door in front of him.
Katsuki is met with green doe eyes and dark, messy hair.
Izuku is met with a husk of the person he knows.
“Hi, Kacchan,” he says with a small smile once the door is shut.
It’s a greeting and a litmus test.
Katsuki doesn’t answer, but stares blankly across the room, not meeting his gaze. He looks so far gone that Izuku’s not sure he’d recognize himself in a mirror, let alone anyone else.
Meaning he’s still going to be like this in the morning, or he’s on the verge of complete breakdown. Or both.
He leaves his shoes at the door and follows Izuku back to bed. Izuku wraps his arms around Katsuki, whose head is now buried in his neck. They don’t even bother with blankets, knowing they’ll keep each other warm.
Izuku softly hums a familiar tune. Katsuki doesn’t move or make a sound, but Izuku can feel the tears on his skin before eventually, he drifts off to sleep.
2.
With Izuku, he’s learned to stop locking his door at night. In fact, he deliberately unlocks it once the dorm lights are out, just in case. Izuku hates knocking. No, on nights like this, he slips in quietly. Eyes puffy, cheeks red and tear stained. Katsuki is still awake in bed and meets Izuku’s eyes the moment he walks in. He stands there silently with his hands in his pockets, and waits as the world crumbles around him.
Katsuki lifts his chin. “C’mere, nerd,” he says softly.
He’s already taking off his shirt anticipating that Izuku will do the same. Katsuki can tell by the panicked look on his face that Izuku needs skin contact, and while that always makes him too warm, he does it anyway because it’s the fastest way he’s found to calm Izuku down.
Izuku crawls into bed with Katsuki and clings to him like he’s the only one who can keep him from drowning. Katsuki pulls him in closer still, hoping he can do just that, if only for a moment.
3.
This time, it’s bad. Really bad.
Katsuki is already in tears when Izuku answers. He’s hit with a crushing hug as the door falls shut. Katsuki smells like fire and smoke. There’s a fresh cut on his cheek and a scrape that looks hastily bandaged on his upper bicep. Izuku reaches up and pulls Katsuki’s head into his shoulder.
“I fucking hate you. I hate you, you stupid fucking nerd. I hate you,” he says, angry and hushed, choking back a sob.
“That’s okay, Kacchan. It’s okay.”
When Katsuki says that, Izuku hears what he means.
“I’m hurting. I’m hurting and I’m sorry and I need you so fucking much I can’t stand it. Please just make it stop.”
“Fuck you,” Katsuki spits back.
“Nothing is okay.”
“I know,” Izuku says.
Katsuki pulls away and starts taking off his clothes. A rare occurrence, but soon enough he’s down to his boxers and Izuku follows suit. Izuku pulls him by the hand over to the bed. He lies down and Katsuki curls up on his chest, nestled against his body and laying between his legs. Izuku wraps his arms around Katsuki, one hand running through messy, knotted blonde hair that he’d clearly been pulling at before he arrived.
He doesn’t explain himself. Doesn’t want to. He rarely ever has. Katsuki just needs, and Izuku needs to be there.
“Please, ‘Zuku,” he whispers. “I need to hear it.”
Izuku. Not many nights warrant that name, but right now he’s not surprised. Izuku is grabbing his phone off the nightstand to play the song aloud, and-
“No. Just you. Please.”
His voice is small and almost pleading, and Izuku is sure his heart might break from the pain lacing his words. He sets his phone back down and returns his hand to Katsuki’s hair. Izuku sings softly in a key he can manage, pronouncing the foreign words as best he can from memory.
“When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case,
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love.”
He’s shaking out quiet sobs in Izuku’s arms. Tears are streaming up his chest and down his neck. Katsuki’s hand is gripping his so tightly, Izuku wonders if his hand might break if it weren’t for him matching Katsuki’s strength. But he continues.
“When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears,
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love.”
It’s almost too much, hearing him cry like this. The soft, gut-wrenching sobs of a seventeen year old little boy begging the pain to stop. Begging the panic and guilt and fear to “shut the fuck up for thirty goddamn seconds.” Izuku can understand that much, at least. He’s had his own pain like that wrapped up tightly in the same arms that are in his now.
“I know you haven't made your mind up yet,
But I could never do you wrong.
I've known it from the moment that we met;
No doubt in my mind where you belong.”
It’s taken all Izuku has to hold back tears of his own. He hates to see someone who means so much to him hurt so deeply. But he doesn’t stop. He means every damn word. He always has. He doesn’t care anymore if the lines are blurred. Doesn’t care if they never figure out what the hell hurts so much, or if what they have stays exactly as it is for the rest of their lives.
And that’s what breaks him. Tears are rolling down, running onto his cheeks, into his hair, and they won’t stop. He swallows hard and takes a slow breath because he’s still not done.
“I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue.
I'd go crawling down the avenue.
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love.”
Somewhere inside, Katsuki knows he means it. That’s why it hurts so fucking much. He knows that it doesn’t matter how long it takes, Izuku will be there. That this - safe in the arms of someone he loves - is where he belongs. And it fucking hurts like hell. He hates it. He hates that it makes him feel like he’s turning himself inside out, hates that it’s true. But all of that is still too big and scary to face. All he can do is weep until this feeling passes.
“The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret.
The winds of change are blowing wild and free.
You ain't seen nothing like me yet.”
Neither of them really knows what this is anymore, this thing they have. If you ask Katsuki, he’d still say it’s hardly a friendship. It’s just “shitty Deku,” the one he needs to sleep at night, of course they’re not friends. Ask Izuku, and he might tell you something closer to the truth, but still insist that he and Kacchan aren’t that close, and no, they never really were.
“I could make you happy, make your dreams come true.
No, there’s nothing that I wouldn't do.
Go to the ends of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love.
To make you feel my love.”
They don’t know if what they have will change or stay the same, but tonight it doesn’t matter. Right here, right now, they have each other to weather the storm. And for now, that’s enough.

Snow Day
#bkdk kidfic; fluff; slight hurt/comfort: Little Izuku and litt Katsuki play at the park after the first winter snowfall. When big kids ruin their fun, Katsuki steps up to play the hero.
-
“Kacchan! Kacchan! Kacchan!” Izuku squealed, wrenching his mitten clad hand from his mother’s grasp to run toward the little blonde boy all bundled up on the playground.
“Izuku, Honey, don’t run, there’s ice!” Inko shouted after, her voice warbling with worry.
“Eh, they’re kids. Let ‘em have fun,” Mitsuki waved her off. “Oi, Brat! Izuku’s here, play nice!”
Katsuki glared at his mother from atop the slide, only scarlet eyes visible between the heavy navy scarf and the hood of his orange snow suit. He grunted and threw himself down the slide, screeching as a bundle of green and white blocked the end.
“Move, Deku!” Katsuki shouted, voice muffled by the knit scarf pressed against his lips. But it was too late, the slide slicked with snow increasing his speed as he reached the bottom, colliding with the other boy and sending them toppling into the frost covered wood chips.
“Ow, Kacchan!” Izuku whined. Emerald eyes stared up at the gray skies, little flurries fluttering down from the clouds to tickle his cheeks and nose with chilly kisses. A bundle of orange and blue crossed his vision as Katsuki pushed himself up, grunting with the effort it took to bend the right way in his puffy gear.
“I told you to move, idiot!” The blonde snapped. “Who stands at the bottom of the slide anyway?”
“Sorry,” Izuku sighed, whining as he rolled over onto his knees and pushed himself to his feet. “I was excited to see you! It feels like it’s been forever!”
“Tch, we just played two days ago.”
“Yeah, forever ago!” the little green boy exclaimed, lifting his arms to exaggerate his point. “Do you want to play heroes?”
“Yeah, okay,” Kacchan nodded. “But I call dibs on All Might!”
“Aww, but you always get to be All Might!” 
“Yeah, well, you don’t have a quirk, so why should you get to be All Might? He’s the coolest, not some quirkless loser like you,” The blonde shoved him, forcing Izuku to land on his butt. It didn’t hurt, not with all the layers his mother dressed him in, but the words…the words hurt. 
“Don’t be mean, Kacchan,” he sniffled, the image of the fierce boy dressed in orange becoming a distorted image through his gathering tears. “I want a quirk, too.”
“Tch, crybaby,” Katsuki huffed, before stilling, eyes going wide at Mitsuki’s approach.
“Bakugou Katsuki!” she hissed, grabbing his arm and roughly pulling him off the playground. “That’s a time out.”
“Ah, I didn’t do anything! Let go, you old hag!” the boy growled, trying and failing to force her iron grip from his jacket.
Izuku sniffled and wiped his nose with his mitten, a streak of snot dragging across it. He grimaced just before his mother knelt down and held a tissue to his nose.
“That’s better,” she smiled. “Let’s dry these tears, too.”
“Mama, why don’t I have a quirk?” he asked, turning his big green eyes on her.
“We’ve talked about this, Sweetie,” she smiled sadly. “Some people just don’t develop quirks. But you’re still my special boy.”
“But being special doesn’t make me a hero,” Izuku pouted. “I want a cool quirk like Kacchan.”
“I know, Honey. I’m sorry,” his mother patted his head. “How about you play with Mama for a little bit? Looks like Katsuki is busy right now.”
Izuku spotted Katsuki sitting on the bench, arms crossed over his chest while Auntie Mitsuki berated him. “Okay Mama,” he nodded, letting her help him up again. “Can you push me on the swings? I wanna go high, up up up!”
“Okay, Mighty Man, let’s help you fly,” his mother laughed.
Izuku squealed and giggled with every push that sent him higher and higher. He swore he could see their apartment from here! The cold wind whipped at his cheeks, but the sting was numbed to the exhilarating feel of flying.
“Higher, Mama!” 
As he came back down from another weightless climb, Kacchan and Auntie Mitsuki were coming over to join them. The little boy, despite only his eyes being visible, looked embarrassed. And when the swing came to a stop, Auntie Mitsuki gave him a little push in Izuku’s direction.
“Go on, Brat,” she ordered. “Tell him.”
“Sorry, Deku,” Kacchan said barely above a whisper. “I shouldn’t have pushed you.”
Izuku hopped off the swing and ran to his friend, flinging his arms around the orange clad boy’s neck and squeezing. “I forgive you, Kacchan.” There was a small pat against his back as Katsuki hugged back.
“Wanna build a snow fort?” the blonde asked as they pulled away.
“Yeah!” Izuku beamed, nodding furiously, and next thing he knew, Kacchan was dragging him off the playground and into the surrounding field covered in snow.
“It’s gonna be the best tower ever!” Kacchan exclaimed. “No old ladies allowed!” He pointed accusingly at his mother.
“Watch your mouth, Brat!” Mitsuki warned as she led a snickering Inko back toward the bench.
The boys got to work pressing snow into a thick wall. It was a bit lopsided, but after some hard work, it really came together. Some bigger kids came to the playground, and Izuku stuck closer to Katsuki as they kept eyeing their fort. As they kept working on The Best Tower Ever™ Izuku made a little snowman, complete with hollowed eyes and All Might’s bunny ears.
“Look Kacchan! It’s Snow Might,” he giggled, but gasped just as one of the older kids came by and stomped on his snowman. “Heeey! You crushed All Might!”
“Yeah, and I’m gonna crush you next, Dork,” the boy laughed, shoving a fistful of snow in Izuku’s face.
“Leave him alone!” Katsuki growled, rushing to put himself between the green boy and the big kid. 
“What are you gonna do about it, pipsqueak?” The kid said with a smug smile. 
“Yeeaah,” his friends backed him up, all with similar expressions of arrogance. 
Izuku shivered as the melting snow dripped down his neck, wetting the clothes under his snowsuit. “Kacchan, don’t. They’re too big!”
“Tch, they’re just a bunch of big babies,” the blonde clicked his tongue. 
“Who you calling a baby, runt?!” The big kid growled and shoved Katsuki hard, making him gasp and tumble over Izuku who was sitting on the ground. 
“No pushing!” the little green boy yelled. “That’s not nice. Kacchan, are you okay?”
But when he turned around, the little blonde boy had ripped off his navy scarf, as well as his mittens. That feral grin Izuku had come to recognize has Kacchan’s hero face graced his features while his palms sparked with little pops or bright explosions.
“Oooh, somebody thinks he’s a tough guy!” The big kid teased, earning a round of laughter from his goons. 
“Tougher than you!” Katsuki growled, resuming his place between Izuku and the bully. “It’s okay now, Deku because I am here!”
The big kids sputtered a few laughs, finding the blonde’s All Might impression stupid and silly. But the joke was on them as Kacchan used his quirk to explode the snow between them. A cloud of white expanded, blocking out the bully’s vision and with a war cry, Katsuki dove at the boy and knocked him into the cold ground.
“I’ve got you now, Villain!” Kacchan yelled, gripping the front of the boy’s coat and shoving him further into the snow. 
“Hey you little jerk!” One of the other kids pushed Katsuki and Izuku gasped as he watched his friend hit his head against the wood that bordered the playground. Kacchan let out a pained cry and the little green boy let out a growl, launching himself at the boy who pushed Kacchan. With mitten clad hands, Izuku slapped and hit, screaming loudly.
“Stop it! Hey, knock it off!”
“You hurt Kacchan! You’re mean! Just a big bully! I hate you, I hate you!” The freckled boy screeched as he continued his assault.
“Izuku!” Inko snapped, appearing suddenly. “What are you doing?!”
Izuku stopped immediately, turning around to face his mother. Kacchan was holding his face, a little bit of blood coloring his eyebrow while tears left wet trails down his cheeks. And then the freckled boy was wailing.
“Those big kids were mean to us!” Izuku cried, running to his mother and shoving his face into her stomach. “They crushed my All Might snowman and pushed Kacchan.”
Mitsuki wasn’t far behind, eyes wide as she took in her son’s bleeding face. The glare she sent in the direction of the bullies had them stiffening up, blabbering about how they didn’t do anything.
“Mommy,” Kacchan whined, lip wobbling harshly.
“Let me see, Bud,” Mitsuki sighed before crouching in front of her son. She tossed a look and a little nod over her shoulder at her friend.
“Where are your parents?” Inko demanded, green eyes fierce as she patted Izuku’s back until he was only shaking with sniffles. The bullies all snapped their mouths shut, staring wide-eyed at the woman before them. “I said,” she reiterated through grit teeth. “Where are your parents?”
One of the goons pointed to the other side of the park, arm shaking and looking to be on the verge of tears. Izuku was guided toward the Bakugous, tears beginning to freeze on his lashes and nose still sniffling.
“You stay with Auntie Mitsuki,” his mother told him. “I am going to have a talk with these boys.” She approached the kids, who cowered under her fierce gaze. “Let’s go. Start walking.”
Izuku watched them retreat until the sound of snow crunching under their boots was lost to the wind. He crouched beside Auntie Mitsuki who was pressing a handful of snow against the cut on Kacchan’s brow to clean it.
“It’s cold!” the blonde boy whined
“Quit complaining. Here, press this against the cut. We’ll put a bandaid on it when we get home,” she told Katsuki, who followed her orders and pressed the tissue against his face.
“A super cool All Might bandaid?” Kacchan asked hopefully.
Mitsuki huffed a breath that sounded like a laugh and ruffled his hair, “Of course, my little hero maniac.” 
“Are you okay, Kacchan?” Izuku whimpered.
“It’s just a little cut,” the blonde shrugged like he hadn’t just gotten a near concussion.
Mitsuki smirked at the brave face her son was putting on, rolling her eyes. “Typical,” she shorted, whispering under her breath. “Come on boys. Up, up, up.”
“Where are we going?” Izuku asked, taking her hand while Kacchan took the other.
“Back to our house for some hot cocoa. How does that sound?” Mitsuki smiled.
“I like hot cocoa,” the freckled boy grinned.
“Can I have extra marshmallows?” Katsuki asked. 
“Sure sure, whatever you want,” she laughed. “But first, I think I need to save those boys from your mom, Izuku. I’ll be right back.” The blonde woman darted across the playground toward Inko who was laying into the boys and their parents, all of which looked terrified of the tiny woman’s wrath.
“Thanks for protecting me, Kacchan,” Izuku smiled. “Your quirk is so cool. And you fought those bullies just like All Might fights bad guys.”
Katsuki sniffed and shrugged. “It’s whatever. All Might wouldn’t have just let them get away with doing mean stuff. If I’m gonna be the next number one hero I gotta be just like him.”
The freckled boy nodded in agreement before stretching up on his tiptoes to plant a kiss against Kacchan’s wind chilled cheek. “You’re my hero, Kacchan.”
Izuku giggled as Katsuki’s ears turned bright red, and it wasn’t from the cold. His mitten clad hand was gripped tightly in the blonde boy’s hold as they walked toward their approaching mothers. 
“I’m gonna be the best hero, so I’ll always protect you, Deku.” Katsuki grumbled, refusing to look his way. 
Emerald eyes sparkled up at him with admiration and a beaming smile brighter than sunlit snow stretched across Izuku’s face. “Thanks, Kacchan.”

Izuku can stop time for a few seconds and see what’s going to happen.
The only time he used it was to save Katsuki; in each of his visions, the blond was dying with blood and serious injuries. In some of them, Katsuki was in his arms; in others, he sacrificed himself for Izuku.
The freckled man never forgot himself for letting this happen, even if he was the only one to know; the vision of the endless blood and the life leaving the red ruby eyes destroyed him more than once. No one except Aizawa knew about this capacity; if it turned into the wrong hands, who knew what could happen?
Izuku sighs, looking at his watch and waiting for his childhood friend. Today they planned to spend the afternoon together and change their mind before exams. To Katsuki’s surprise, the nerd accepted it without thinking and smiled.
Izuku realized the power of his quirk.
It could be life-saving but also destroying; he found himself having a mental breakdown more than he could count. The saddest part was how /he/ was the only one to know about this alternative life where Katsuki died. The sale katsuki who was standing beside him and glancing at the freckled man like he saw a ghost.
“Oi,” he says, ruffling the green curly hair. It was one of their habits, they never thought they could be this close, but everyone noticed how comfortable they were around each other. “If you’re going to stare at me all the time, at least take my best side, freckles.”
Izuku ignores the blush on his cheeks; he rolls his eyes and sighs. “I was just wondering how someone can be so confident and still be the most stubborn person I’ve ever seen, kacchan.”
Katsuki ignores his comment, putting his arms behind the freckled man’s back. “Maybe because you can’t leave without me ?”
Izuku smiles, realizing how the blond was right. “You’re right; I can’t imagine a world without you.”
No matter what their fate was, Izuku always promised to protect his childhood friend, even if this meant facing death and sacrificing himself

Rambling thoughts about where the the new chapters are headed:
So I'm thinking. With AllMight facing off against AFO, of course the whole prediction from Nighteye is coming back into question; will this be it? Will this be the fight and the death that Nighteye saw for AllMight?
But then I thought of something else to do with the Nighteye/chie-hasaikai arc, and when Nighteye was talking to everyone, he says that Izuku was the one who "changed the future" of his visions of Izuku dying to Overhaul.
Now of course this is going to do with Bakugou and how Bakugou and Deku are always touted as the duality of heroism: Save and Win.
And because I'm throwing my hopes at the wall in the hopes that something sticks and manifests, this also has to do with Bakugou's death plus his eventual revival. (I will never stop holding out hope that he is going to come back soon and still have a real, proper moment of glory that doesn't end in him being sent to the void)
So, let's first start out by establishing that Katsuki has ended up in the presence of All Mights vestige.
And yes maybe that is a hint towards something to do with him being OFA adjacent, but what if instead...(or Maybe also)
It's leading to him reaching All Might?
Specifically, what if it's leading to All Might fighting AFO, AFO breaking through the Hercules battle suit, and All Might sensing that he is in very real danger as Hercules breaks down and loses integrity around him.
AllMight, not regretting a damn thing he has done to get here, thinks to himself if this is it, if this right here is Night Eye's Foresight coming to fruition. We have a moment of anticipation (and likely a cliffhanger ending for a chapter) where we the audience wonders too. And we all freak out again o er yet another death flag.
Then, BAKUOGU arrives on the scene to help All Might out.
Essentially, what if Bakugou is ALSO one who "CHANGES THE FUTURE" that Nighteye envisioned? If this time it's All Might who says that Bakugou changed Nighteyes future?
Once again, the duality of win and save, Deku and Bakugou, a duality that AllMight himself associated with Deku and Bakugou. Also it ties in with the theme of the younger generation doing what the adults could not...change the future. Defeat AFO. Save everyone.
I know Bakugou has nothing to do with Nighteye, but he does have a lot to do with All Might. He has a lot to do with All Mights legacy.
And he also has a lot to do with AFO, since in a way, AFO essentially killed him with the possession/whatever you'd call it of Tomura.
Imagine Katsuki Bakugou coming to help All Might against AFO after AFO had BODIED HIM.
Imagine all of his fucking emotions; saving his mentor/idol, All Might, getting some slap-back at the same evil that literally killed him...and knowing that stopping AFO here with All Might, keeps him from getting to Tomura, and to IZUKU.
Because if that happens, if Izuku is not allowed to work, if AFO intervenes, it's game over, and Izuku will be killed. So Bakugou has to make sure that AFO ENDS HERE. Whether it's by force or by running down the clock.
He has to protect Izuku.
Backing this up, I believe that Bakugou will "revive soon", that is to say, it will be REVEALED how he revives. We are kind of all over the battle field in terms of timelines, so I can see a bit of backtracking once he is revealed to All Might, the way horikoshi has framed interventions by other characters all over the place in this war(example, Gentle and Nagant, Star's pilots)
I'm talking about the pattern I've noticed and expressed before: horikoshi puts a character in mortal danger in their fight, but a character we haven't seen in a while suddenly appears to Uno reverse the calamity about to happen, and then after a dramatic reveal, Horikoshi traces back in that character's timeline to how they came to be in that spot of intervention. How gentle came to assist UA, how Nagant came to snipe at Shigaraki before he can set a hand down to decay.
No matter how it happens I expect horikoshi to do the same for Bakugou.
In this case I would imagine that he is treated, and revived, and there's a period of time where he is allowed to breathe, let his body reacclimate, oxygen restore into his system, and he catches his bearings. Meanwhile, Jeanist and Mirio would be speaking to him, checking his awareness, performing whatever first aid and followup they need.
All the while, info about the progress of the war trickles in, and Bakugou can't help but overhear or even ask about it. Izuku arrived moments ago and has taken Shigaraki to the ground. Aizawa, monoma, and Mic have been portaled by Twice clones and are MIA. Dabi has reignited. Toga of course has erupted into Twice clones, and spread across the battle zones. They hear about AFO and Gigantomachia.
They hear that AFO has broken off and is headed for Tomura and Izukus battle. At this point, Bakugou is breathing steady again but his new heart races at the omen...
Eventually, there is shock among the Heroes as they hear of All Might leaving his post and later reappearing in front of AFO himself, donning Hercules as armor, a move no one saw coming.
Tsukauchi is trying to keep it wrapped up and off the coms because he is scared of everyone losing hope if AM is killed, but it's not enough, La Brava was already broadcasting it and word would spread.
And when he hears all that, Bakugou would stand up, knowing that it's not time for him to give up on the fight. He's still badly beaten of course, but he is alive.
He will go where help is needed, he will go to All Might. He knows that Izuku is fighting Shigaraki below, but he knows, even if he doesn't want Izuku fighting alone, Izuku having to fight on TWO fronts, AFO and an OP Shigaraki with no restraint on his Quirks, would be the worst case scenario.
So it pains him to abandon Izuku, but in order to give Izuku the best chance to work, and survive, he has to make the decision to bolster All Might so that AFO can't make it to Tomura and destroy the whole process.
Not to say other Heroes will not join All Might as well, if there are any left, maybe even Jeanist, the big 3 and miruko will pick themselves up and follow Bakugou. But Bakugou would be the leader.
Maybe something in there also about All Mights stand and Bakugous fighting spirit inspiring a second wind for the heroes?
(I still think in the grand scheme of this, that AFO will still get past, BUT I think that mainly because he is the true Evil of this story, sort of the final boss, and I feel like Tomura may get the final blow against him, whether in a physical, mental capacity or even both? Idk how accurate that might be but as one last Raise the Stakes I think AFO might get past AM and whoever joins him, but I think Bakugou would, again, be close behind. Because he would sooner die again than let Izuku get hurt(boy is ALWAYS dying for Izuku) so that might be how we get a Bakugou and Izuku reunion towards the end.
(If by some miracle they do stop AFO there and he is no longer a concern, I ALSO think that Bakugou would leave the scene to go to Izuku, same reasoning; he doesn't want anything to happen to him, and he will help him if he even can)
Also dialogue somewhere in there about Bakugou wanting AMs autograph or something maybe lol also probably bakugou being a tsundere and calling All Might an old man 🤣
Oh, bonus thought: when Bakugou wakes and is hearing all the news, and specifically about AM, he finds or is given his card back, and in staring at it, Bakugou gets to THINKING (and subsequently deciding to go to AMs aid.) I think the card coming back might be a fun motif.
Anyway that's a big thought dump and I have no idea if it'll actually play out like this at all but it's a fun little theory (and I cling desperately to the idea that Bakugou is not finished yet, that we still have more to come from him, I know he is in bad condition and it might be a big ask BUT he is one of my faves and I enjoy seeing Bakugou content and WOULD LIKE FOR HIM TO TRULY TRIUMPH after losing so much 😭) (and also reunite with Deku to share a moment of GLORY AND TALK ABOUT THEIR FUCKING FEELINGS FOR ONCE 😭😭)
Anyway just some thoughts, take em or leave em
Addendum: Given the new chapter, and that there is now definitely a connection in OFA between real life All Might and Izuku, I am going to say that I feel justified in thinking that we are getting closer to Bakugou reviving and/or converging with OFA.
Since All Mights vestige is currently WITH Bakugou but also....he's calling out to Izuku...and Izuku is sensing him....
Now will Bakugou be spiritually piggy backing the AM vestige to OFA space to see whats going on there before waking? Or will AM vestige disappear and leave Bakugou with a sense of urgency as he wakes up, sensing somehow that AM and by extension, Izuku, needs help?

"𝙸 𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝚑𝚊𝚝𝚎 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝙺𝚊𝚌𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚗." || Bkdk Angst.
Warnings: Bakugo swears a lot. Deku is sad. possible Krbk? Mention of Krbk. Insecure Deku. Jealous Deku. Bakugo is bad at feelings. Hurt/No comfort. Bkdk breakup. Mentions of cheating. Bakugo panics and says some things he doesn't mean. College au(?). I'm literally here to cause pain from my own suffering. <3
The time was 2:35AM, and Katsuki Bakugo had still not returned to his shared home with his partner Izuku Midoriya, who waited in pure worry on their sofa, gnawing at his nails in the tense, dark silence of his home.
His attention was immediately snapped to the familiar tune of the front door opening, and he rushed to it in an instant, "Kacchan! Where were you? I was so worried!" He made a move to engulf his lover into a tight hug, but was promptly pushed away with a gentle shove.
"Let me get through the door first Deku, damn." Bakugo grumbled in tired, quiet tone.
With some awkward stiffness, Deku lowered his arms, and stood waiting for Bakugo to take his shoes off in silence.
When he'd finally kicked them off, he moved past Deku without even so much as looking at him, leaving the poor man standing there confused and ever so slightly hurt by his lack of action.
Sure he was used to Bakugo's coldness, he'd been dealing with it for decades, but his behavior was throwing him off tonight as it was a contrast to his not so recent change in attitude to his no longer just childhood friend.
"Kacchan..?" He called after him, following just a few feet after.
Bakugo stopped with an annoyed sigh, having just taken his jacket off, "Jesus, what now Deku?" He turned to face him.
Deku frowned, "I just.. wanted to know where you were? This is very late for you Kacchan," he glanced at the clock again, "I was worried.." His voice got quieter as Bakugo's tone made him rethink his worry and mistake it for overthinking.
"Yeah, well I didn't ask you to worry did I? And I don't need to tell you where I am every five minutes." He rolled his eyes.
"No, that's not what I'm saying-"
"My God can you just leave me the fuck alone?! You're so damn annoying, I just want to lie down and sleep and you're keeping me standing here with all your damn stupid questions!" He ran a frustrated hand through his spikes and turned to face a stunned Deku who dawned an offended frown.
"What the hell Kacchan?! Why're you yelling at me like I did something wrong?!" He laid a hand over his thumping heart as he took a step closer.
"'Cause you won't shut the fuck up!.. I swear, shit for hair would've never pushed me this fucking far." He curses the last part under his breath, but Deku hears it.
"Are you serious? Is that what your attitude is about? Kirishima? What, you wish it was him here instead of me?" Deku looks at Bakugo accusingly, causing another tired sigh.
"No- that's not what I said." He rolled his eyes again.
"But it's what you meant and feel right?"
"Dammit, you're putting words in my mouth, asshole!"
"I bet he was who you were out with, huh." Deku looks down and speaks with a significantly lower voice, an ever so slight tremble in his shoulders.
"Yes! Okay? I was! Happy?!" Bakugo gives in, waving his arms dramatically with emphasis.
"You've spent time with him every day for the past two weeks, Kacchan! You never make time for me! It's always him!" Deku felt tears gathering in his eyes, and felt all the more pathetic.
"Oh here we go again.. I already told you- I'm allowed to make time for him, he's my best friend!"
"And I'm your boyfriend! Maybe you should date him instead if you're that infatuated with him!" Their argument had turned into an all out screaming match, Deku could feel himself crumbling with each word that left either of their mouths. Not too long ago, they'd seemed perfect, the 'it' couple of all of their friends. But in recent weeks, with Bakugo seemingly choosing Kirishima over his own boyfriend, it had put quite a strain on their relationship, and Deku's resolve as a whole. All going unnoticed by Bakugo himself.
"Maybe I will." A sly smirk spread across Bakugo's face, "Maybe that's what I've already been doing these past weeks. Going to his house and fucking him stupid-"
A sharp punch to his jaw shut him up, and effectively landed him on his ass.
With wide surprised eyes, and a hand cupping his quickly bruising jaw, Bakugo looked up to see Deku panting, tears streaming feverishly down his cheeks. His own eyes were wide and glowing an ever so slight greenish blue, the familiar electric effects of OFA scattering weakly around his shaking body and balled fists.
Through sharp breaths and in an almost deadly quiet voice, he voiced, "I really hate you Kacchan." And without giving the blond any time to respond, he was out of the front door at a speed only his quirk could give.
In the silence of his now empty home and the sting of his swollen jaw, Bakugo was able to feel the settle of realization from his giant fuck up.
