#and bkg isn't like that with anyone else

[crybaby-bkg]

Trainer Bakugou who you're a little terrified of the first day you're paired with him. when asking for a trainer at the gym, you had expected the friendly redhead who always looked so sweet and encouraging and cut as hell. you weren't expecting his grumpy looking blond counterpart, who was all glares and shouts for his clients to keep pushing themselves.

you were hesitant at first, before you quickly realized that it was all a ruse, for the most part. he pushed those who needed that extra encouragement, but was more lenient to people like you who simply wanted a professionals guidance. so, after a few weeks, you liked him for the most part, and his looks damn sure made it easier to cozy up to the big guy.

the only issue you've been having with Bakugou though are the...coregasms, as you've seen them been named on social media, that you keep experiencing. the first time, you weren't sure what it was, why your stomach and pelvis kept tightening up. you couldn't have...climaxed, or anything. you hadn't even been touched!

but, as the weeks go by, and the workouts get more strenuous, they've become harder and harder to subside and ignore, and so had Bakugou's commands to keep going when you suddenly stopped. you can only lie and say its cramps so many times before he realizes that something is up.

you're midway through a good morning, when that familiar feeling starts tightening in the pit of your gut. you clench your eyes shut, shaking your head a little, as if you could ward off the impending feeling. bakugou notices though, frowning at your almost pained expression in the mirror, walking up behind you to stop you as you pull yourself back up. his hands are on your waist, and as you come up, you feel his bulge glide over the curve of your ass, and something in you snaps.

you gasp, buckling over, one hand on your knee as the other reaches back for bakugou's hand to keep you up as your thighs shake. you can feel yourself spasming, clenching and unclenching around nothing, secretly wishing you had something that could fill you up, something that you felt throb against you as bakugou leaned over your form.

"Another coregasm, huh?" he asks you lowly, his lips brushing your ear as you bite your bottom lip to hold back your moan. your eyes buck open though, when his words sink in, head tipping back to look at him in the mirror, only to find his gaze already on you.

"You knew every time?" you ask quietly, panting now that its finally starting to pass over you. but bakugou doesn't let you up from this position, especially since the area you're in seems to be desolate for now.

"It's hard to ignore how pretty you look when you cum, sweetheart." Bakugou seals his words with a firm press to your ass, his cock rubbing the seam, and you can practically feel the heat and veins of it through your thin bottoms. you groan under your breath, getting lost in the feeling of him grinding against you, when he suddenly speaks again.

"You still feel it?" he asks, voice low as he looks at you through his lashes. you nod, biting at your bottom lip as you meet the steady rock of his hips, watching how he smiles before slotting his lips against your ear.

"Want me to help make it go away?" and he does, in the employee locker room after hours. he makes it go away, and rebuild, and go away again and again until you're hoarse and your legs are weaker than they typically are on leg day. bakugou helps the ache go away, but not for that sweet redheaded coworker of his, whose fists have fucked his cock the entire time of watching bakugou rail you over the locker room bench again and again.

fang now you got me curious... thoughts on ex boyfriend bakugou? 👀

he is a wet cat kdjhsdkjsd

i really think bkg is a "mate for life" kind of a guy. if he's in a serious relationship he does not plan on breaking up ever. very "i'd rather start over with you than anyone else even if we have to do it 100 times". so if you're breaking up - the chances the break up isn't a hot emotional mess is slim to none

and the chances that bkg was the one to initiate is fucking zero. once you're in the relationship you're in it, and while he's not gonna stop you from backing out, you're basically it for him. like. forever. he has a hard job and love was alr the bottom of his priority list.

to be honest i think he's a little bit more of a soggy guy than we'd like to believe. everyone thinks he's going to be really...? angry about the situation. but he's actually just. alarmingly sad. there's something really hollow about him and he's still very very kind to you and very amicable but he always sort of looks like he's in pain. he speaks much more gently and is way less playfully gruff in a way that's very gutting.

even once he gets over that, he doesn't know how to butt out of your life. he wants too so much. he really does but he can't. you became his person so long ago and now what? you want him to pretend that's not true?

bkg will respect ur boundaries if you enforce them. and he certainly won't chase after you if he feels like you don't want him anymore.

it's not him who chases after you but his friends dfkjkfhs. bkg is a person who by all intents and purposes - is defined by the relationships he's made. and his friends know more intimately than you ever will, how much you mean to him. they're also ceo of meddling lmao so just. one after the other you get messages like hey....... and its so insane

they all meddle trying to get you two fall back in love like a shitty hallmark movie. you practically never see bkg cry, but once the two of you are alone in a room and you ask if he really misses you, he sort of turns his head and says fucking obviously - all while sniffling a bit. and it just sort of strikes you that maybe it's worth it trying to work it out one more time

i would love to write him in a hot sexy way but i actually think he gets DEEPLY pathetic as an ex in a very not fun way KJSDHKJF. our emotionally well-adjusted but ultimately riddled with attachment issues king.

#return to sender #katsuki <3 #my pookie wookie bear hes so soggy #i love him but i genuinely dont think he could handle a break up #just like i dont think he can do hook ups #hes very sensitive lol #a.bnha

[epickiya722]

I'm glad someone said it. I have a real hard time shipping Bkg with anyone else bc i got the impression that he just wouldn't be able to move on... Specially not that quickly. Bc Bkg has never been so devoted to anyone except Dk.

While i can see Dk trying his best to move on and accept it, i don't think Bkg could. Bc it would just never feel the same.

Yeah, Midoriya is the type of person who wants to move on. Stuck the past, isn't his thing. Using it to understand a situation, yes, that he is.

But if Midoriya really stayed stuck in the past, actually believed he was just "loser", the story would be a whole lot different than we have now.

Bakugou though? The thing with Bakugou I think some people don't see, or want to admit at least, is that he has his regrets.

Out of the two, he will be the one to wake up at 3 in the morning and think of something he did embarrassing back in kindergarten and have a crying session over it.

Oh wait!!

He does!!

For years, all he thought about was taking Midoriya’s hand that day at the river. He has regrets of not doing it. He has regrets about how he treated Midoriya after.

I think the funniest thing I sometimes see from some people in this fandom is when they post things like this -> "Bakugou hates Midoriya".

Here's the thing, if Bakugou hated Midoriya, there are some things he would not have done around him.

He would not have poured his heart out to him on multiple occasions, he wouldn't have kept that All Might card he got with him when they were kids, he wouldn't help Midoriya train, he wouldn't have sacrificed himself for him, he wouldn't worry for Midoriya, he wouldn't be the person who knows Midoriya the best, he would not have apologized and admit how wrong he was. He would not have thought about Midoriya last before the you-know-what happened.

Jealous of Midoriya? Yes. Feels inferior to Midoriya at times? Yes.

But hates him?

Bakugou may hate how Midoriya makes him feel, but he doesn't hate Midoriya.

If he really hated him, Bakugou wouldn't go as far as to make up to Midoriya.

Bakugou is an honest person, if he hates you, he'll tell you. He is also the type of person who doesn't like wasting time. He would not have put in the effort to help train Midoriya, apologize, call him by his first name, and everything else if he hated him.

He's not going to move on from Midoriya until he feels he has done everything he can to make up for their past. And if he had romantic feelings? Bakugou would immediately tell him the moment he can because again, he doesn't want to live with anymore regrets and doesn't want to waste time and hide anything from him.

Really, the only thing that would stop him if someone else is in the picture.

Hell, even then, he would tell him and add on that Midoriya shouldn't drop anything for him because of his feelings.

Yeah another ask...I love make them.

Anyway, on the new chapter of "fuck you Izu" written by Hori. Not only we have AM paying a homage to bk- a pos who told Izu to kill himself and nothing happened to HIM- but is also the pos who caled Nana pathetic IN AM'S FACE.

Also....AM has 0 reasons to care or pay homage to class A1. Bet he has no idea clas A1 corned Izu in that way, with bk having fun.

But may point here is....AM and Izu know shit about each other! Its freaking bizarre, AM cant be his mentor, but also can even know how was Izu's past at all...

I like dadmight as much as the next guy and I can see AM caring for Izu(he did more than Inko) but damn....those two never had a real talk?

Not saying AM needed to tell everything

Am:So Izu it all start when my mom birth me!

But the important stuff as quirkless, as well being as how bk is detrimental to Izu's mental state and more should have been discussed.

Does Izu even knows his fav color?

(I know some people would make the joke "har har Izu is a creepy fan" which I hate it)

Does AM even knows izu's fav color?

Hi @mikeellee 👋,

Totally agree with this. Hori has underdeveloped AM's bond with Izu and with everyone else to the point where AM doing a homage to Class 1A as a whole comes out of left field despite how nice of a sentiment it is.

And seriously, logically speaking, why the fuck have All Might do a homage to Bkg? Bkg acts abusive to Izuku daily, quirkest, openly admits to having bullied Izuku (and still does, let's be real here.) Add on the open disrespect of Nana, AM's mother figure, and all the other holders of One for All... AM should hate this kid. But Hori can not allow anyone to rightfully hate his fave, SMH.

On to your next point, AM is one of the best adults in Izuku's life and yet Hori doesn't allow him or Izuku to confide in each other outside of plot related OFA meetings (which Bkg is also shoehorned into 😒.)

Why isn't Izuku confiding in AM about Bkg?

Why isn't AM telling Izuku more about his own quirkness orgins, being orphaned, his mentorship with Nana?

All these things would SHOW more closeness, and SHOULD happen, yet Hori doesn't do this. Despite Izuku being the MC and AM being THE main mentor figure, Hori seemingly hates them both. They deserve better.

The many times of Midoriya Izuku rejecting Bakug*u Kat*uki & what it means to them

Again, not exactly anti-bakug*u but I'll tag it like so and hide his name so that people who potentially don't want to read it don't have to

(contains: mha comic spoiler, antibkdk but it's really complicated, in general critical of a certain blonde character but I don't think there's anything mean spirited here and my point isn't to shit on him, but to theorize where he's heading towards)

Thinking about how over and over izu chose the other option as opposition to bak*gou and feeling a moment of hope for a liberating ending between the osananajimi but then also grim cause hori probably won't do that (or the jump editors won't let him do that)

It's a thought that only came to me after the comic apology scene, which so many 💥🥦 shippers screamed over, and it led to me contemplating the progression of their relationship & how they were positioned in the story as archetypes.

I kept on thinking about how in the apology scene, Izuku never directly replied to bkg's apology. Bkg said I'm sorry for everything I've done, and Izuku's immediate action after the shock was to apologize to everyone for being inconsiderate in his previous words.

I'll have to say this first, I don't ship them at all and could never see myself doing so (for apparent reasons), and as someone who endured bullying and abuse I hate bkg a lot, but thinking about their character development is really interesting and as far as angst goes, they probably have the most dramatic mutual-but-also-not-mutual pining relationship ever and its honestly kind of fun to think and read about, lol.

And after they have returned to UA, and bkg accidentally called him deku as usual instead of Izuku, his reply was a smile and "you don't have to force yourself", which...

Like, can we stop a moment and think about how Izuku never directly addressed bkg's apology? The way he said "you don't have to force yourself" as if he's given up on hoping? If I am the author and I wanted the apology moment to be the salvation the two needed, I'd definitely let Izuku accept the apology then move on. There's no point in dragging things out unless I'm preparing for a greater moment of enlightenment. Unless the reply Izuku had in his mind was not what we are expecting (acceptance).

From my pov, I think he was hesitating. He was having second thoughts and he was unsure. If it was set before the final arc, Izuku would probably immediately accept the apology, or say "I've never blamed you/been mad at you"-- no matter how we view their relationship, we can agree on that, right? But why the hesitation now??

I think we're close to the reveal of the reason for the change of mind for Izuku, judging from how the story has been building up. And I have a theory which is an unlikely one but I also really want to see if anyone else feels the same.

One of the main theme of this story, or of most stories, is the discovery of self-identity. To establish your name and develop your personality & world view and find where you belong. It's a very common theme, yeah?

MHA is a story that's defined by choices instead of predetermined fate-- todoroki chooses to use his power to neutralise but not harm (unlike what he's been taught), midoriya chooses to save eri despite nighteye telling him he couldn't do it, the LoV thinking bkg would be good villain material and him rejecting them, and the dichotomy between the heroes and the villains? It's "I choose to become what I want to be not what others (eg my father, society, etc) want me to be" versus "society called me a villain so I will be one as my revenge".

For Izuku, I’d argue that his journey of becoming himself relies on the rejection of his childhood, in which he was repeatedly told that he had no right to choose (quirkless people can't be a hero, you should kys instead, you need to become the next symbol of peace, so and so), and he needed to defy those voices and choose his own path. And as someone who played a big part in those negative voices, bkg was someone who Izuku needed to reject. (By reject, I don’t necessarily mean cut off. What I mean is that they both need to reevaluate their view towards each other and stop seeing the other as someone more/lesser, which had been a constant in their dynamic until very recently; Izuku needs to reject what bkg used to say to him and the labels that he had given him. Only with this could they achieve a healthy & balanced relationship.)

It started with him reclaiming the name deku by choosing ochako’s interpretation over bkg’s; and then cheering for todoroki when td and bk faced off in the sports festival;

And Izuku did, repeatedly. It was small but it was there, how he was trying to push the influence & shadow of bkg (his abuser) out of his personal narrative, in a passive way. It was unintentional statements and outbursts at first, and it was kind of a one step forward two steps back situation (which is common for abuse survivors who are trying to make amends), but I think he was coming to the realisation that it’s what he needed to be the hero he wanted to be.

Tbh, I really really didn’t expect this line. Like I was so so so bracing myself for midoriya to cheer for bkg but then he DIDNT and it was insane and I screamed. Anyways--

Then it escalated into deku vs bkg 2 and well, that was definitely a lot of emotional baggage to unpack. It was an incredibly painful read for me because well… the level of mental gymnastics you’d need to do in order to view the world like bkg…. bro needed the psych ward not a hero school. There were definitely a lot of moments that shippers would swoon over, but if you’d allow me to go blue curtain a bit I’d say the most important line is this one:

There was also the “it has to be you kirishima who goes to save bkg because if I was the one who’s holding out a hand he would rather die than catch it” in which, yea it was accurate assessment. But like. Anyway I don’t feel like getting into that today...

Wtf bkg? You thought of me like that?

Judging from how it’s been emphasised over and over by bkg and AM lately, Izuku changing from someone who has no regard for his own well-being will be a major plot point in this last arc, and this will likely include his relationship with people. In order to grow from being overly self-sacrificial, he will need to distance himself from people who hurt him or at least, acknowledge that people who would hurt him doesn’t care for him and move on from there. And this leads us to this line:

Prior to this, I don’t think Izuku gave too much thought to their relationship. He likely attributed all the bullying and namecalling to his quirklessness and “it’s bkg being bkg” and this was the moment when he was like, ah, so you hate me on a personal level, you pick on me not because you look down on quirkless ppl (Izuku probably internalised a lot of the shame & discrimination regarding that) but because you really hate me, midoriya izuku, specifically. You THINK I look down on you, and you THINK I get beaten up by you because it’s fun for me or something. All the while I've idolised you and looked up to you and believed so earnestly that you will be a great hero. It’s through this fight that they finally get a glimpse of what the other thinks of them and it’s when Izuku started to contemplate the definition of friendship, affection, and relationships in general. I feel like after this was when the distance between the two really showed, even though the air between them became less tense. Bkg had learned the truth of OfA, but in terms of plot progression it didn’t seem to do much for the two. The “helping deku to train” acted as a plot device to explain how he got stronger, but aside from that, how did this part contribute to Izuku’s character development?

And really, I think we are seeing bits and bits of how Izuku is mentally distancing himself from bkg (he still cares but not as much and as extreme as before), although it could just be my wishful thinking. one of the notable instances is this frame from the apology scene:

When I read this, I was like...??? So you actually know that friends aren't supposed to beat you up??? On one hand, the IRONY but on the other hand, there's a part of me that's holding out for the possibility that this is hinting at something bigger in the future. Could this statement mean that he will learn to draw a better boundary between himself and people who don't treat him fairly (which is very often)? I definitely hope so.

To be fair, I didn't remember either, so I went back and had a look:

He didn't remember. oh. my. god. You would have thought that he definitely would, but he didn't remember at all. (I ugly laughed, for a moment) Whether it was because he had too much on his mind or that he didn't exactly care is left for you to determine.

The other reason for this theory of mine was Todoroki's development after the license exam. We got to see how Izuku told Shouto it's ok to not forgive his father, but because he's "a caring person," he was waiting for an opportunity. In which, kinda a wack argument but it was indeed very much in character for him to say so.

...ok.

It was said before by many others, but the two really have a lot of parallels as well as opposites, like childhood trauma, refusing to use his quirk to the point where it hurts himself vs forced to cope with a quirk that hurts himself, and of course most importantly, learning to come to terms with your trauma and making peace with your abuser.

What Midoriya said above irked me a little, because no, you are 100% allowed to not forgive him forever and that doesn't make you a bad person, but then in the next chapter we got this:

And then we get to know exactly what Shouto was waiting for:

He was waiting for endeavour to change before deciding whether he should forgive him. In which on this aspect I really think Todoroki was coping a lot better than...... anyone else in this series even though he's often depicted as a dense & slow person. So with the parallels in mind, could this be what bkg and deku are heading towards as well? Would Izuku's mind change after witnessing the conversation between Natsuo and Enji? Could we expect more of the dirty laundry between the two will be revealed to the other characters and they will be forced to face it? Will Izuku need to do the same thing, to hold off his judgement and possibly decline the apology until bkg really has proved himself?

On bkg's side, we have been seeing a lot of references to him being the one who knows Izuku the best, even bkg himself said so. There seem to be this shift of power balance where it used to be izk chasing after bkg, and now bkg might have to chase after izk who's less interested in him now. (If this is the case, imagine the angst. The role reversal. The pining. Oh my god hori would be insane to pull this but it would be so delicious--)

In the latest chapter, we saw shigaraki declaring that he was not interested in bkg at all, aside from his relationship to Izuku. Shigaraki demonstrated his unrivalled power which gave bkg a great shock. By the presupposed logic of “the characters of mha need to learn to be something other than who they’re told to be,” for bkg who’s always been told that he would be the greatest, the most powerful, the protagonist in life, it’s probably his moment to learn how to step aside and support others (which he evidently hasn’t mastered yet, since he burnt hadou’s hair again). If I am to maximise the dramatics in this plot, I might even force him to renounce his status as a hero because I crave the poetics and the internal struggles, but that’s unlikely. However, since right now we are having two people facing off, one of which rejected Izuku’s help in their childhood, and for the other one Izuku wanted to save his childhood (The visual parallels were so blatant that there’s no way it’s not intentional) so I’m really, sincerely looking for a role reversal between Shigaraki and bkg, between a “false hero” and a villain (label wise).

Anyway, I think this is it for me today, I read the lastest chapter yesterday and there were so many thoughts on my mind and needed to vent a little (a lot)...

But then, these are all just theories and most of the time, manga theories remain to be just that. If this really happened hori will probably go to god tier author for me, but I really don't think that's gonna be the case, haha

[luffythinker]

I once asked you how you thought Bakugo would do if he liked somebody who already had a partner because we're all human and we can't choose who we fall in love with but How do you think Bakugo would like function if Kirishima was already with somebody else and he just fell in love with him?

I have a scenario that after Kirishima and the gang saved him before they went to the dorms that Bakugo always wants to hold his hand and only Kirishima's hand after that and Kri's like "Oh he just wants to feel safe and stuff" and Bakugo doesn't know why he's doing it at first it's just a impulse to hold his hand and he starts actually liking Kirishima and one day when they are chilling in Bakugo's room Bakugo leans over and says he loves Kirishima and kisses him

LIKE Im over here thinking Bakugo would feel bad about it cause he understands Kirishima is with somebody else but he can't stop himself from doing everything he's about to do or thinks he wants to do and Kiri isn't stopping him and he's like "Why arent you stopping me?" as he continues to kiss him and go further and further seeing what lines he can across until Kiri tells him to stop if he'll ever tell him to stop while it eats them both up cause this other person is possibly part of the class and Bakugo has to see them everyday and live with what he's doing

Do you think Bakugo would think this isn't good cause like making somebody cheat isn't winning?? like i said before i read somewhere that someone said Bakugo would not cheat on anyone cause in his book it wouldn't be winning and my only argument is what i keep saying you can't help who you fall in love with

I love tough situations like this give me your juicy thoughts

OMG ANON, that's a really difficult situation, I have to ponder things for a bit

Okay so, yes you can't help who you fall in love with and I think Bakugo wouldn't blame himself for falling for Kirishima but I think that it would be against his moral code to pursue somebody who is already with someone else, and he would try so hard to not cross the line. Like do you get me? He wouldn't feel guilty for his feelings, but he wouldn't want to act upon on them at first either.

BUT…. at some point it would be too much, I feel like Bakugo is a person who feels things very intensely so at some point he would get consumed by it, probably in a private moment with a Kiri he would get this overwhelming urge to kiss him and he does it. Kiri doesn't stop him, he isn't sure why either but he lets it happen.

I think it would eat them both alive to live like this for too long though... Neither of them seems like the type of people to handle guilt well (we saw the whole all might mess with bkg), so I can't see them staying in an affair situation for long.

But yeah I don't think Bakugo would cheat on anyone he's dating, he likes to be in control too much to "slip up" like that, so I do think if the situation was reversed (like kiri kissing him while he's in a relationship) he would stop it, break up and then give it a go with kiri.

[howcouldtheyletmebeanadult]

A favorite bkdk trope of mine is when Bakugou is like, really jealous of Todoroki, not because i like love triangles or Tododeku (in fact, the trope is 100 times better when neither of them are interested in each other like that), but because i think Bakugou projecting his feelings on Todoroki (Plus the potential unnecesary drama so befitting of bkdk) is genuinely funny.

Especially if this happens before Bakugou realizes his feelings 

Todoroki:*smiles at deku*

Bakugou:ugh i hate icyhot’s stupid crush on deku, not that i care who that nerd may date or anything so what if the idea of him dating someone else physically hurts thats just annoyance what kind of loser would crush on shitty deku anyway fuck yo- did deku just smile back at that bastard?!

#dont take this to mean i want bkg to hate todo #or to be super mean to him #i love platonic tdbk #i just think bkg being jealous its funny #he does this to uraraka too in some fics #but something about tdrk makes it funny #one time in this fic i read in the last chapter where dk and bkg are already a thing but bkg is still wary of todo #and so he ask him why (specially since todomomo was established in that fic #and bkg isn't like that with anyone else #bkg tells him its because Todo is his rival in everything he cant help seeing it like that in this situation #anyway am rambling #bkdk #bkdk tropes #bakudeku #bakudeku tropes

[eijiroukiriot]

if you had told me back in 2018 when bnha only had 2 season and we had just barely learned where kirishima came from i don’t think i would’ve outright not believed that deku dropped out of ua to go pro immediately and use his 7 quirks to help people but i think i probably would’ve been pretty skeptical. interested but skeptical. but the thing that would’ve drove me completely over the “no way. absolutely no way” line would be “kirishima’s roots grow out, and to show that he’s serious about becoming a hero and a part of the class, bakugou wears a tie with his uniform. these happen in the same chapter” 

#(voice of that one specific gravity falls line that idk if anyone else is gonna get immediately) #my one and only dream...which was to see kirishima's roots in canon...has come true! #or like idk. i know it sounds dumb but also we're all kirishima stans here i think we all get it #i'm gonna justify anyway bc i really want to say that like idk #kirishima has a lot more to him than a lot of the other side characters bc he was given that spotlight #but most of the time he's kinda put into the ensemble #the fact that he dyes his hair is like a fun detail that plays into his backstory and also like random trivia not every character has #so like the fact that his roots grew out after this very intense period of sadness is such a tiny little detail #but it acknowledges so much abt him...the fact that he dyes his hair in the first place to feel more confident...and the fact that he must'v #e lost some of that in the fallout of the war arc #really tiny little thing but the fact that horikoshi included it honestly shows a lot of care towards him as a character #so ;-; that's one thing #i know uraraka didn't have her cheeks this past chapter too and deku looks a lot like yamikumo #lots of cool transitional details in this past chapter #bkg wearing a tie wasn't like something i (or anyone?) was really like expecting or hoping for as a step on his character development? #but maybe that like makes it hit harder #i do have the emotions around it but idk if i'm sold on it as like...a permanent thing #the same way when people say 'oh eventually kirishima will be able to stop dyeing his hair' #like i feel like at some point it stops being a statement and just starts being a thing. wearing a tie isn't the end all be all of respect #but still the fact that he did to show unity w the class at that moment...him as one of the leaders and not trying to distance himself #from it at all.... #man he really has come such a long way it's so crazy that at one point 'if all you do is look down on others' was such an unthinkably huge #step #i finally watched this past week's episode today and the 'i came here to find what i lack' scene hit very hard again #and . i have typed a whole wall of tags so this will be it for now #happy wednesday guys i hope you all have seen a nice tree in the past few days #thoughts

— BAKUGOU:

katsuki has an nonexistent tolerance for jealousy, it's always very clear when he gets jealous and quickly boils to the surface. he's not loud, never wants to scare you, and tries not to make a scene. he locks eyes with them over your shoulder, dark and daunting, and makes his intentions very clear. fuck off. if they're persistent, he wraps a heavy arm around your waist and tugs your back against his chest or hovers over your shoulder and glares. once they're gone, he gets softer. subtly touches you: slipping his hand into yours and sitting close enough that your thighs brush.

— MIDORIYA:

izuku hates feeling jealous and tries his best to work through it without you noticing. whenever he sees you and someone else talking, laughing, he gets all quiet. the pit in his stomach weighs down and his thoughts race, frown carving itself into his face. gets really touchy afterwards, pushing his nose into the crook of your neck and draping himself over your shoulders. his mood is brought up immediately when you return the affection and quell his worries. if the person is making you obviously uncomfortable, however, he gets scary. he tries to end the interaction as quickly as possible, firmly introduces himself as your boyfriend and pins them with a heavy glare.

— KIRISHIMA:

eijirou gets upset, not at you, but himself whenever he feels jealous. he hates feeling like he's doubting you, showing you that he doesn't really trust you. but he does, so much. so whenever he feels uncomfortable with how someone's talking to you, he gets really quiet. his grip on your hand tightens and he pulls you closer to his side. he thinks he's being subtle about it, hiding it, but you can always tell and quickly end the conversation. even when he's down, he's always willing to step in if someone's making you uncomfortable, though. he hides his anger behind a sunny expression- pulling you away from them. his easy smile and soft affection is back the moment you're back home.

— TODOROKI:

shouto doesn't really get jealous. not often, at least. he trusts you so much, but that doesn't stop the doubts form bubbling up. he's worried you'll realize everything he lacks and leave, even if he knows you'd never. he's so unused to being loved unconditionally. he gets distant, trying to slip his hand from yours and give you space to talk. he doesn't ever manage to get far, though, before your fingers are tangled back together and you press yourself into his side. he's terrible at voicing his feelings but the reassurance means the world to him. if he sees that someone is bothering you, though, he's staring them down and inserting himself into the interaction. the moment they're gone he's so soft: cupping your cheek and asking you if you're okay- even if they never managed to get close to you.

— KAMINARI:

denki doesn't usually get jealous easily, mostly because he's too enamored with staring at you to notice anyone else looking, so they have to be pretty shameless for him to notice. he hates seeing you uncomfortable, even if it's only a little, so the moment he does notice- he's removing you from the situation. he has no shame about it either, doesn't even try to hide his intentions when he walks over. he will pick you up and carry you off without so much as a word. he gets really clingy afterwards, whining about you not paying enough attention to him and pressing himself against you, curling over your shoulders.

— HAWKS:

keigo isn't a particularly jealous person. he never gets very angry or confrontational when he does, keeping up a charming smile and initiating little touches to your hands and waist. attempts to show them you're taken and that they should take their leave. sometimes he'll lift a wing to hover behind you, never fulling encasing you, to act as a divider between you and whoever it is bothering him. if he ever feels like they've crossed a line, he's still able to hide his anger well- simply excusing you and quickly putting as much distance between you and them as possible.

— DABI:

touya is incredibly protective. he hates the idea of people seeing you- anything longer than a glance leaves an unsavory taste in his mouth. so when someone actually tries to talk to you it has him on edge. he's moving closer to your side, unabashedly curling around your waist and nuzzling at your neck, hovering over your shoulder. if you don't seem bothered by them, he stops at attempting to mentally burn a whole through their skull. if they actually try and touch you though or start making you uncomfortable, he's not afraid to hurt them- feels it's more than justified- no matter where you are. he gets very needy once your back home, draping himself over your lap and pushing his face into your hands. makes you tell him how much you love him and refuses to move for an hour.

[amaranthdahlia]

because "you're my hero" outro song is deku's feelings about bakugou, while "shout baby" outro song is deku and bakugou's feelings about eachother and their relationship.

While not actually confirmed unlike you're my hero , shout baby's lyrics suspiciously sounds ao much like its about bkdk's relationship lol

(Incoming shitty and messy explanation but i just wanted to point it out haha)

(So like, i just suggest listening to the song and have bkdk in mind wkdkwl and like the song is so fucking good)

●

Nothing seems to stay the same (dk and bkg's relationship?)

Your hair, the way you smell

The way we struggled when we learned to dance so long ago

All of these times, they're stuck deep in my memory

Only to sink into silence, never heard again (like how we dont get to see alot of their childhood moments?)

Since when,

Was I able to tolerate more like this.

Since childhood, people have been telling me I am such a cry baby (literally screams deku)

Keep it a secret (dk relying the OFA secret to bkg?)

What a cruel phrase

My scream is getting scratched out

A typical future, yet so far away (dk becoming a full fledged hero by mastering ofa, or maybe them becoming friends again?)

It won't reach to that person

Where should I go?

I don't know, so I simply cling to it

Admiration that can take away

The worries from everyday It won't disappear (deku admires bakugou and he knows he's strong and capable but he would always worry and look out for him)

I wanted to keep protecting our fragile connection (do i even need to explain cus holy shit this line is what completely sold me)

 If I were to keep it locked away

It would be as if it isn't there

But do you know

that it's not so small that I can forget it?

So when the sun comes up I know what to do

I must put on my strongest face,

Because that's all I could have done

I am a bit confused since I have never been this way (putting both colors cus both verses could be referred to both of them, bc one it can b about dk bc uhhh dk, [see i told yall i suck at this] and the other thing it could b about bkg referring to his guilt about all might? And the fact that the you're next scene happened during a SUNRISE)

You are in my heart completely (???)

I don't know what to do

I didn't want to learn

I wish I had done it differently (bakugou regretting not taking deku's hand)

It's so fragile

I wanted to deny myself (bakugou not wanting to acknowledge his weaknesses)

Like I was doing something wrong

I was disappointed in myself (bakugou realizing his assholery)

But everything is so new to me (the way bakugou perceived the world was turned upside down for him)

I can tell without asking anyone

You wont bring me happiness

But there is something else

that you have given me (his heroic heart and instict?)

●

I wish i could decipher some lyrics and connect it with canon material but unfortunately im not an ultimate bkdk expert so i dont have many receipts so if anyone wants to go ahead PLEASE i would love to read it

(ALSO this is NOT the entire song, i removed some lyrics so i suggest looking up the entire song if you want to see the full gist of its ktdkness)

AGAIN this is pure speculation and interpretation, since i think this song is broad and vague and most likely not related to bkdk in the show (that its a bit of a stretched allegory?). I distanced some lines from the other when it was supposed to be connected and mean something else.

so yeah this is defs bit of overanalysis ykno

Anyways yea the only reason i said this is bkdks song is bc i got ALOT of bkdk vibes from the it, period.

haha doesnt help they showed us this sequence at the end of the song/outro (and it happens in a sunset lol) :

#look man shout baby is such a fucking banger i wish ppl talk ab this song more #i love the way it was composed and sang it gave me so much nostalgia vibes idk why #and the fact that it sounds sooo much ab bkdks relationship makes it even more emotional #midoriya izuku #bakugou katsuki #bakudeku #katsudeku #decchan #wonder duo #dynadeku #man this relationship #katzuku #dekugou #dahlia.txt #twin stars of class 1a

[literaryobsession]

— bakugo headcanon

everyone in class-a knows how private bkg is. no one, not even his best friend kirishima, has seen his room or even a glimpse of it. he also doesn't talk much about his background, his family, his thoughts, and most especially, his past. the only time anyone ever really discovers anything about bkg is because of midoriya.

bkg shares nothing about himself. he continues to keep his real feelings to himself. he hides his thoughts in his head. aside from the insults he spews on a daily basis, he says nothing else.

it isn't like he doesn't want to. no, believe me. he wants to share, especially because the kamino incident still haunts his dreams. it's just that bkg hasn't fully trusted anyone yet.

"can i borrow your notes from cementoss' class?" you ask him as he tutors the bakusquad in the common area.

this boy doesn't bat an eye, "yeah, on my study table."

"what?"

"you know what floor my room is?"

"...yes."

"and which door mine is?" he continues hitting kaminari with a rolled up notebook as he questioned you.

"yes."

bkg raised an eyebrow, "then go get it."

until, of course, you.

everywhere we've been | b. katsuki

✫ tags ;; a/b/o, alpha!reader, gn!reader, omega!bkg, scenting, kissing, confessions, v fluffy other just general omegaverse nonsense

✫ wc ;; 1.3k

✫ a/n ;; i don't want to talk about it. and if anyone says anything abt this ill cry

✫ synopsis ;; bakugou hates most alphas. you are the third exception

Bakugou's gotten so many lectures about instinct at this point in his fucking life, he could probably recite each one from word of mouth. All of them bog down to the idea of being careful.

"You're still an omega, Katsuki. You have to be careful, even if you're a hero."

Bakugou hates the notion entirely. Everyone can go fuck themselves. He's a grown ass man, and he doesn't give a single shit about anything related to being an omega. He avoids the subject all together, in interviews and in life. When heats come, he takes a week off and leaves it at that.

He doesn't accept any shitty alpha courting gestures because most of them suck. And there's really nothing Bakugou hates more than some half-assed creep insistent on becoming his mate.

He doesn't take any shame in being an omega. He's still the goddamn best, still number two on the pro-ranks. It shouldn't matter to anyone else, and it hasn't yet. His outstanding capabilities are highlighted. He's always been one to subvert peoples expectations.

He hates most Alpha's, though. A whole fuckload of them are cocky. Bakugou enjoys making them submit, it brings him great pleasure to see them fold and crackle under the pressure of his intimidation. He can only stand like three total, and Deku barely counts.

You're the most recent addition to the list of alphas he can tolerate.

And you're another barely. Bakugou met you in a fucking fabric store, buying lame nesting shit he needs. He's picky about the materials on his skin so buying online is a hassle. Most fabric stores with nesting shit are full with omegas and beta's for obvious reasons. He figured you were another beta. He figured all the omegas just flocked to you cause you were so damn friendly.

The first time Bakugou figured out you were an alpha was when he came into the store and smelled something intense.

Rain. Like the earth after a rain shower, deep and rich and heavy. It was borderline intrusive. The store normally smells mild, other omegas don't smell like much to him.

But it was so potent. So intense, he couldn't help but track you down. There you were at the fabric counter, frantically putting patches over your neck that did little to cover anything up. Bakugou let out a shaky inhale, and then looked at you.

"Hey, Bakugou."

"What the fuck is that smell."

You gave him a mild smile before chuckling sheepishly.

"Uh.. me? I guess. I worked out before coming and I guess I -? I don't know but my patch isn't doing much to cover it up. Boss said it was fine, but people keeping giving me weird looks."

Bakugou stared at you for a long, long while.

"You're an alpha? You fucking soggy bastard?"

You paused then laughed at that. Nodding.

"Surprised?"

"Fucking.. obviously. Who wouldn't be. Shitty Alpha."

Bakugou pins most attraction on instinct. His weekly visits to the fabric shop for new, soft things to take home had become something of a routine. But he's never felt like that before. That weird fucking feeling that stirred in his gut. The repetitive of what you were to each other.

He makes more excuses to see you. Eventually you say he can see whenever he wants, outside of work. Normally, something like that would make Bakugou irate.

But it's you. So it doesn't. He just sort of accepts it. Like it's the most obvious choice in the world for him to be making. He texts you when he's free, and you come see him.

But you never cross any boundaries. You don't court him or even suggest the idea, never comment on his scent or how he looks. When weeks pass because of his heat, you merely send him some food and a note to take care of himself. You just join him for dinner sometimes and walk him back to his apartment and smile just barely.

And you're funny. You have a wit to you that Bakugou doesn't resent. But you never take that patch off your neck, never act like a shitty alpha like he expects you to. Like he's almost waiting for you to pull the rug from underneath his feet.

It never comes. Months pass and you're still the same as you are.

He blames everything on instinct. When his omega yowls more and more for you, he can't help but be angry with it. Be upset with his body for wanting something so bad, to clinging to the scarf you lent him and sleeping with it for days.

Shitty fucking beta-passing alpha. Bakugou hates you so much for making him like this.

__

"You're distressed."

Bakugou's eyes snap to you immediately, scowl twisting in upset. You look the same as always. A plain expression meshed with mild concern, hands in your pockets. He seethes.

"What the fuck do you know?"

You pause momentarily, shrugging.

"You smell distressed."

Bakugou freezes.

"You can fucking smell me?"

You pause, looking at him for a while before laughing. He swallows something thick in the back of his throat. Something in him feels like it's on fire. It's so fucking lame. He hates it.

"Yeah. You don't wear blockers or anything. Why're you so surprised?"

And he wants to scream at you for being so stupid, but his mouth goes dried. You're right, and it's obvious but there's more to it then that. You look a little amused, but not all that concerned and that pisses him off worse.

"B-because, you fucking shit! You never say anything about it."

Another pause, this time much longer. You grin slightly.

"Did you.. want me to say something about it?"

"Fuck you," He deflects, heat creeping up his neck. He can feel the flush, the tips of his ears turning pink. "W-what the fuck do I normally smell like? How would you even -"

"You normally smell sweet. Kinda smokey." You say, non-plussed. He freezes. Bites down the urge to ask if you like it or not. He wants to ask so fucking bad it's killing him.

"Don't all fuckin' omegas smell sweet to you? Shitty, useless alpha."

You laugh this time. Your hand reaches over to him, and he doesn't flinch from the touch. You twist some of the blonde between your fingers. You lean forward, so close to his neck. And take an inhale. His whole body goes into shock.

"You smell like honey-blossoms, oranges, and a campfire. Like a camping trip." You say, pulling back to meet his eyes. His expression narrows, lower lip trembling.

"You fucking dick - "

"It's good. Nice and sweet, omega."

The praise runs over his whole body like a shock. When you pull away, you're grinning. Hands in pockets and relaxed. And something in Bakugou snaps, grabbing you by your collar until you're faced with him. A growl rips from his throat, and you grin. Cocky bastard.

"If you fucking breathe around another omega or smell them like that, you're dead meat." Bakugou grits. You dickhead. "Was this all part of your shitty fucking plan?"

You shrug.

"You didn't seem like the type of omega who wanted me to court you first, but I'd love to court you." You say. Something in him soothes, as much as he's agitated. There's some semblance of relief, almost immediately.

"Distress is gone." You say, soft and bright. He slams you into the wall a little harder and you laugh.

But his grip weakens when you grab his wrist. He watches you, eyes growing nearly watery when you carefully removing whatever patch was there to cover your scent. The smell of rain floods his lungs in a fit. You smell so good, he's drunk off of it immediately. You grab him by his wrist, pulling him into you.

Your rub your scent onto him with a soft hum. His whole body goes ragged with relief as you coo at him. He could cry. Stupid fucking instinct. Stupid fucking feelings. Everything smells like rain, and something rumbles in his chest.

"Shitty alpha."

"Just the worst." You agree mildly. When he pulls back, faced with you - he can't help but lean in. You press your lips to him soft, wiping tears from his cheeks. He hates you, he swears.

"Wanna come inside?"

He huffs, breathing in more of you.

"Yeah."

002 bkdk and 003 bkg

When I started shipping them:

idk, i guess a small part of me felt like i would like them together at the beginning of the manga and how their relationship started to develop more and more after the first chapter. and i did 😊

My thoughts:

they have such an interesting, complex dynamic and interactions, they were so close when they were little and became so strained when all the miscommunication started but to see them both grow, individually and together, especially after clearing up some air on things after dvk 2, it's so amazing to bkg encouraging and giving advice to deku and deku still admiring and becoming stronger bc of bkg, their rivalry is helping them rekindle their friendship and i'm all for it 💗

What makes me happy about them:

that they'll become a hero duo in the end, since they both need each other to rise higher and w/ all the foreshadowing on them thnks to horikoshi

What makes me sad about them:

there's kind of a power imbalance now that deku is getting power-up from past ofa users but i get the feeling they won't last long and they'll slowly fade away the more deku makes ofa his own, still i'm a bit iffy on the whole 9 quirks thing :/

Things done in fanfic that annoys me:

making them ooc w/ bkg acting like a tsundere who's always angry and swearing 24/7 and deku acting like a "bamf" w/ that toxic masculinity bull and is made out to be all might 2.0 😒

Things I look for in fanfic:

mutual pining, bkg being an oblivious romantic, deku trying to be romantic but only getting it half right, funny banter, bkg being openly proud to date deku and not being ashamed, both being mutually affectionate

My wishlist:

if bakugou meets eri in-canon, pls let them and deku play pretend w/ eri as a sword fighter, bkg as a monster and deku as a damsel, it'd so adorable. also i hope when they have another internship they'll both intern miruko 🙏

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: 

gotta be honest, canonically i don't think they'll end together w/ each other or anyone else, since hori isn't that good at writing romances, honestly i'd be fine if they didn't end w/ anyone and/or each other, leave it open ended for the reader to decide

My happily ever after for them:

them as a pro hero duo is all i could ask for 💥🍀

[eijiroukiriot]

JUST FOR THE RECORD...these are my top 10 favorite bkg moments

10. the fact that he plays the drums!! not any one moment in particular, just his presence and role in that arc. kinda cheating but i think the fact that he was put into drum lessons, is good at it, and played them as a part of the band is just so sweet and nice. whatever makes you happy kid

9. the scene with the vacuums

this is a really good scene in general - the atmosphere, the pauses, the stiffness of the dialogue...it all really goes to show that this is like. huge. compared to the actual scale of the conversation. because it's AWKWARD and it's HARD for bkg to be thinking about what he's supposed to do here, and harder to put it into action. dvk2 is really huge for him as a character but it's this moment where you see that he's really starting to pick up the pieces that gets me

8. the whole sequence of mina and kaminari trying to get him to wear the santa coat :)

one big part of bkg's character arc that i think tends to get missed a lot is him coming to realize that he has a place in the class as another student - not someone that they fear, or someone they hate and look down on, but someone who they recognize has issues but want him there as much as anyone else. they're FRIENDS!! come ON!!

7. when he denies vehemently that he was worried about the internship group and goes to bed at 8:32 to prove how not worried he was. idiot

6. this line

THIS IS HERE BECAUSE I think that it is funny that he ran into deku and racked off every word in his vocabulary at once. but i'm also gonna cheat and talk about how after the sludge villain attack he runs up to deku like "you didn't save me, alright?? huh??", fooling absolutely nobody. something about fronts and underneath it all he's got a lot to work on

5. this

do i even need to talk about this? what can i say that hasn't been said before. god.

4. THIS

TOP 10 MOMENTS THAT MAKE YOU THINK GOD I LOVE THE BOY...this is such a legacy bkg moment and it happened right as i was getting into bnha so it left a big impact, i think, on the way i look at bkg's character. the way he's saying it like he doesn't want to admit it, but knows it needs to be said. he's made crazy strides since this but this was the first concrete time we ever saw him acknowledge that he was wrong in the past, has a lot of work to do, and has started, even if just barely, trying to be better in the way he needs to be. legacy moment.

3. save and be saved!!

also soooo extremely good in terms of him recognizing he's got work to do and is on his way but in such a stupid flashy textbook bkg way!! him declaring it in the middle of a fight!! you can't grow if you don't recognize that you're missing something but growth isn't and shouldn't be about regret, it's about embracing where you're going and the victories you're making along the way!! the fact that bkg is able to acknowledge and interact w his own arc in a way that feels like HIM! loud and chaotic and even a little arrogant in how cool he knows he looks!! i love this moment. i love him

2. THIS!!

i think...when it comes to what bkg moments stand out to me it's all the times where he put something out there himself. and there are a ton of moments in bkg and kirishima's relationship that i love (which should be super obvious at this point) and most of them Are about him learning to be a better friend and give back what he's receiving! but even kamino is about how their relationship is equal and kirishima and bkg are both taking a risk. it's about what bkg does knowing that he has someone who is willing to be by his side and try time and again to reach out to him even when he's receded back into himself in the past. in this moment bkg sees that kirishima needs someone to be there for Him and puts himself out there to help him - he's got nothing to gain here, nobody's even asking him to talk, but he finds it in himself to take the risk and pat kirishima's back! because he's a good friend. a good person. and it's through his own strength and putting himself into situations that he knows he'll have to try hard in that he's getting better, too

and number one my favorite bakugou moment of all time is

so i love talking about bkg as a complex character with layers and hard feelings and many, many challenges to painstakingly work through and i could sit here talking about it all day but it's also equally important to me that he is a kid. he is a stupid teenager who has made mistakes and knows he's made mistakes but would he have made those mistakes if he wasn't a kid working through who he is and what that means and where he's supposed to go in the world? no! it is equally important to me that he's putting in so much work to be a better person that it is that he just gets to be happy. stinky. stupid 16 year old boy. skull shirts and baggy pants etc. and genuinely making amends with deku, through no small effort of his own to swallow his pride, yeah, but also being goofy about it. and dumb. joining the conversations about ofa and deku's next quirk because he accepts that this is a legacy that belongs to deku and the best thing he can do is provide his insight and support to the cause, but also laughing and declaring that he's still better than him and letting himself be goofy and stupid and young while he still can. because he's got so much time ahead of him! and he's on his way. i love him but this is no surprise

#breaking news: i love the boy....i love him. #somewhere in an alternate universe bkg gets the weird feeling that someone is thinking about him #and it's just me. thinking about him #i do want to type long long tags as usual but tumblr's being kinda weird about me making the tab smaller and i'm worried all this will just #ANYWAY bet you didn't expect a 2k word essay about why i love bkg katsuki tonight. or maybe you did. like i said i'm predictable #rewatching bnha w my friends has made me realize wow i have not watched my hero academia in a long time #for someone who is thinking about it constantly #i always walk out of it thinking wow...i love and care about my boys so much #seeing bkg's worst points and stuff makes you think a lot #we just finished hero killer arc and i was just thinking aaa....aaaaaaaa... #i love laughing at early seasons bkg bc him being written as goofy and dumb instead of Scary is very interesting #like the jumping off point for the crux of his character arc to become 'this is a kid who is figuring some things out' #and endears you to his character while he's at a pretty rough point too #but i was just watching thinking oh man he is not gonna take this well #remember back in the day when i used to call him like stinkman mcshithead all the time? and stuff? #that. my terrible stink boy who i love #thoughts #hope you guys are having a nice saturday :) think of bkg for me

[prettyboykatsuki]

pt 2., s2, ep24, bkdk vs allmight

✫ disclaimer: this is a complicated scene. my analysis is meant to be a break down of each characters choices and why they made them more so than it is talking the ethics of the fight which i personally feel are questionable

also i write meta for fun and because i enjoy it so please be kind lol. this is very messy and disorganized but i just want to document what i noticed on this watch.

part 1 here

to me.. this is really where things get interesting. i think this reaction, this frustration on deku's behalf is very telling. a cornerstone of the bakudeku connection is rooted in deku's admiration for bakugou (and vice versa though this isn't obvious till much later). of all the things that should've made deku act or retalitate, it's bakugou giving up on winning that frustrates dekus most.

as it stands, i'm not sure i understand his reasoning. if i had to guess, i think seeing bakugou falter in character is frustrated given everything else that deku experiences. deku admires bakugou deeply and bakugou has a will stronger than anyone he knows.

we cut to a flashback of bakugou in his childhood, meant to demonstrate his desire for glory and deku's admiration. immediately when we cut back, we see bakugou acknowledge truth in deku's statement - his co-operation (at least in bkg standards) is meant to be that.

the conversation leads into compromise. bakugou says that there's no way to avoid fighting, with that speed. izuku insists that they have to run to win, that they don't stand a chance against allmight as it is. bkg tells deku to shut up, but in a turn of events - we learn information bakugou had gathered when he looked like he was recklessly aiming for allmight.

it's this scene i want to talk about. this scene.... when bakugou comes in you almost think he's talking about allmight. his frustration is so apparent, angry tears and runny nose. a split second later and you realize that bakugou is speaking to deku, he calls for his name. and bakugou has given deku his gear. in terms of their relationship, this level of compromise and planning is such a huge mark in their progress. and it was deku who reminded bakugo of his roots.

this scene, i think allmight is actually referring to how they feel for each other. envy, hate, and pursuit is an accurate depiction of what kacchan feels for deku. awe, rejection, and pride in terms of what deku feels for kacchan. allmight breaks it down best, their relationship is so nuanced they've forgotten how to interact with one another entirely.

they almost make it to the end goal but allmight stops them in their tracks. i appreciate seeing bakugou entirely overwhelmed by all mights power, a small detail about how bakugou views allmight. the highest wall in the world.

in a last minute attempt at victory, i think we see what is my personal favorite part of the fight, but also the biggest sign of growth from bakugou. he wants to send deku flying into the gate. the ultimate victory requires this sacrifice, and bakugou's willingness to sent deku through is huge.

bkg continues, through the whole fight, to do everything in his power for deku to win. he jumps in front of allmight, takes into consideration their strengths, and does whatever possible to lead them into victory. this actually where my favorite bakugou quote in the entire series comes through.

"even if there's nothing left of me, i will choose the way i win." or something along those lines. bakugou is willing to do anything for victory . this quality in him that deku admire so much, pushes deku to turn around. even in the face of allmight, bkg's unwavering will is present. they are so necessary for each other in this way.

hearing bakugou speak like that fires deku up.

a victory withou kacchan isn't something bakugou is willing to let go of. in this scene, deku punching allmight is symbolic. it's a first step to letting go of becoming allmight shadow and in turn becoming newlight. taking bakugou with him to win, no matter how much it may deter him - is still the right choice for izuku to make.

"sorry kacchan. this is just who i am" because he could've easily left bakugou there. but that's now who deku is and deku is becoming confident in that. it is bakugou's will that allows for that.

in more ways then one, they are reliant on each others judgement. they are necessary to each other to grow.

overall... this fight is a brilliant fight. it has a lot of nuance and requires a lot of analysis. an understanding of not just deku and bakugou but of allmight in universe. there are a lot of elements about it that are hard to stomach, but in my personal opinion - seeing everything through makes it easier to understand what choices are made

most of all, it really reaffirms me to see how important these two are to each other. while it seems onesided, i think bakugou's stubborn-ness gives midoriya a necessary strength. bakugou is influenced by deku equally no matter how frustrated he always seeems. this fight is a corner stone in their relationship and i am truly astonished by how much i enjoyed it no matter how hard it was to get through at times.
