"Wouldn't it make your fans jealous?" Kirishima asked.

"Tch. I already make them jealous of my existence. With you, it'll add fuel to the fire." Bakugo wears a devilish smirk as he interlocks his hands with Kirishima's.

Katsuki Bakugo is well known for his time drumming for Jiro's band Deep Dope. After a short run of shows in Japan, their last show brings them back to their hometown of Tokyo and to a nearby bar after said show. After Kirishima left him for unknown reasons, he kept his emotions under wraps.

After a sleep disturbance at around 1 AM, Bakugo gets a call indicating his friends were in trouble. He didn't expect to see his face again after so long, and soon enough, Bakugo will understand why his former flame made those choices.

I got this idea from the Cultural Festival Arc! A Kiribaku fanfic is what we need!

*NO QUIRK, AU*

Reader Discretion Advised: the story will contain alcohol use, minor drug references, death discussion, suggestive themes, and other topics that may be sensitive to some readers. There might be a warning.

I recommend using whatever kind of headphones/earbuds you use for listening to music. Some artists are personal favorites of mine or songs I enjoy outside of most genres (i. e., rock, metal) covered in this story.

quirkless college au 📚 ⸻ "i want you like this--naked and real ..." ⸻ Lexi never expected her college years at UA University to fly by in a blur of late-night cramming and college shenanigans--let alone find herself falling for the one person she used to swear she couldn't stand: Katsuki Bakugo. What started as sharp banter and accidental friendship slowly unravels into something neither of them can ignore. With every stolen glance and tension-laced moment, their desire for each other simmers just beneath the surface-dangerously close to boiling over. But they both know better. Falling for each other could mean losing control. And control is the one thing they've always clung to. Everything changes when Bakugo asks Lexi for a favor--one that pulls them into each other's orbit more intimately than ever before.

Hiraku Nakahara had made a lot of choices throughout her entire childhood. She had chosen to live happily despite her tragic past. She had chosen to follow her guardians. She had chosen to be a pro hero. And she had chosen to accept that her life would end earlier than others. But meeting Katsuki Bakugou made her regret some choices. She regretted not meeting him earlier. If she had, then maybe they would have more time. She regretted following her guardians. If she refused, then maybe she wouldn't lose a lot of people. She regretted being a young pro hero. If she waited, then maybe she'd go to school and make wonderful friends. But she would never regret dying earlier. Because meeting Katsuki Bakugou made her realize that her early end was worth it. He showed her that she deserved everything that she was owed. He showed her that he would do anything to save her from her tragic end. And he loved her. He loved her. Not because she was strong or beautiful. He didn't love her because she was Asra. He loved her because she was her. He loved Nakahara Hiraku. That is when she realized how it was worth every second of pain to die for someone like Katsuki Bakugou. She would do everything for him. And if she died saving him? Then it was worth it. ... OCxKatsuki Warning: There are a bit of vulgar words since it is Katsuki, but I tried to lessen them as much as possible. Disclaimer: This story follows the manga, and it may contain spoilers in the future. I do not own any of the plot or characters from the BNHA world. I only own my OC and her family lmao. ...

Bend Your Reality: Katsuki Bakugo by GoovinTheSlayer
95 parts Complete
[Book 1 of the Reality Series] "Have you ever heard the phrase 'a hero will sacrifice you to save the world, but a villain would sacrifice the world to save you'? Well, I was sacrificed so others could be saved. I didn't want that, but I didn't get a choice. What about you, huh? Which would you rather be? Sacrificed or saved?" + The world of heroes and villains is not as black and white as most people want to believe. Still, many hold onto that lie until the bitter end, when they're forced to face reality and their blind trust is shattered. For some, it's the opposite. They believe everyone is a fraud, and that there are no true villains or heroes because it's all about the money. And then, there are the forgotten ones. The ones that society cast aside, the ones left behind and abandoned. Shrouded in darkness and desperation, there are no heroes or villains for them. Just monsters and demons waiting to pounce at the first sign of weakness. It's survival of the fittest, the hierarchy of predator and prey at its finest. The lowest of the low. The ghetto. But it was the only world that one girl knew. At least, until she met a boy from a completely different world who flipped hers upside down. There's not much you can do once someone decides to bend your reality. + Warning: This story contains scenes depicting child abuse, graphic violence, and gore. Disclaimer: I do not own My Hero Academia or any of the original characters created by Kohei Horikoshi. I do own my original character Hitori and her storyline.

"𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐝𝐚𝐲" "𝙅𝙪𝙨𝙩.. 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙢𝙣 𝙗𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙤" ════ ⋆★⋆ ════ At twenty-seven, (Y/N) is done. Done with doubles. Done with understaffed night shifts. Done with scrubbing questionable substances off hospital walls. Her quirk-Chiropractor, the ability to relieve pain and tension with a touch-might make her a miracle worker, but it can't save her from burnout. She's exhausted, sarcastic, and one cracked vertebra away from quitting healthcare entirely. Then life throws her the world's most explosive curveball: She moves into the house right next door to Bakugo Katsuki-now the No. 5 Pro Hero, fully grown, annoyingly gorgeous, and carrying a secret guilt he's tried to bury for years. They haven't seen each other since their early twenties. Since that night. Their reckless, drunken, unforgettable one-night stand. To her? It was hot, wild, and not worth a shred of regret. To him? It was a mistake-not because of her, but because he thinks he didn't treat her right. Didn't ask her out. Didn't make it special. Didn't deserve it. And now that she's back in his life, his guilt turns into something unexpected: Homemade bentos. Left on her doorstep. Every morning. Like an apology he can't stop giving. But as her terrible shifts pile up, her quirk starts easing his old injuries, and their tense doorstep conversations turn into something dangerously warm, one thing becomes clear: This isn't about regret anymore. It's about healing-his body, her burnout, their past. And maybe, if the universe doesn't interfere first... something worth fighting for.
