cw: angst, happy izuku & katsuki but only for a second, non graphic death of a non-canon character, depression
They finally get him to smile again. It’s just a dumb joke—something Kaminari said to make fun of Kacchan for moping while Deku was gone.
He laughs, and laughs, and laughs until he cries because it feels *so good* to laugh again.
Katsuki smiles, relieved.
An hour later—
A news report shows a little girl who was mercilessly tortured and killed by an escaped villain. One who Deku had failed to capture.
His stomach sinks.
He shouldn’t have wasted time laughing. He let that little girl down.
cw: #bkdk#fluff college AU, soft bakugou, ROMAAAANCE

Izuku and Katsuki have been together for two years. Now they're freshmen in college, and their schedules keep them apart, but they're as in love as ever. Watch as people find out that they're together!
@bakujinchuriki "And you're sure you boys have everything you need?" Inko fretted, flitting about their tiny dorm room and checking all the nooks and crannies.
But it was *tiny.* There were like two nooks and maybe one cranny. Tops.
"We're sure, mom," Izuku replied, warm and affectionate.
He was really gonna miss her.
"You can always call us if you need anything," Mitsuki assured him. Then she turned to her son. "You too, brat."
"Don't need shit from you, hag!" Katsuki snapped. "Just get out of our hair already."
If Katsuki told his middle-school self that he'd started a thirsty-ass stan account for *Deku*, middle-school him would have attempted to punch him in the dick, Kota-style.
He, of course, would K.O. his middle-school self with the flick of a fucking finger, so fuck that guy.
Katsuki had gotten the idea from Mina.
She hadn't *told him* to do it, because there was *no way in hell he would ever tell her what was going on in his head.* Not even on his deathbed. He would never live it down.

IMAGINE: a new deku stan account pops up, and there's no way it didn't come from inside ua
do we want this thread?
It was their third year at UA, so class 3-A was pretty accustomed to their notoriety at this point. They'd all gotten their debuts early, especially the "demolition squad"—Midoriya, Bakugou, Torodoki, Kirishima, Kaminari, Ashido, and Yaoyorozu.
With that publicity came an almost uncomfortable amount of news coverage, and with news coverage came bad press. It just came with the territory, and they knew it.
There was even a class devoted to public relations and social media. Nobody needed it more than Deku and Dynamight.
