Katsuki had been bored in middle school, beyond training after school and easy as fuck studying he didn't have shit to look forward to until he reached UA. All he had around him were extras and fucking Deku. So basically he was sort of alone...but he liked it that way. Besides, no one was on his level, or so he thought. He didn't notice the new extra in their class, not until two weeks after he arrived.
He was grabbing a drink after training, his adrenaline running and his hackles rised especially since his mom insisted he be careful at this time since there were reports of thieves. So when someone he didn't notice grabbed his shoulder and he sensed reach at him he reacted before he could think. Blasting off a small explosion but the person was still standing? Barely even scruffed beyond their sleeves being messed. Black hair and stupid big buggy eyes and a small scar on the right one.
"Woah! Aww man I just bought this shirt. Guess I'm lucky I'm rock hard-uh!! Because of my quirk, holy shit sorry! fuck that sounded bad-uh my name is Kirishima Eijirou,my quirk is called hardening is what I mean sorry, it's why I'm mostly okay from that blast of yours is what I mean...dude wait why did you blast me I mean what if it was someone else."
Katsuki was genuinely so baffled by this guy and reeling a little that he just grunted out a simple answer."Thought you were that thief..."
"Ohh! Yeah my moms' was telling me about that too...well sorry for the scare then man, I just wanted to uh-say that your shoelace was untied that's all...see you around in class I guess haha..."The guy ran off and for some inescapable reason to Katsuki he wanted to talk to that guy again. He was a total extra, so what the hell??? No, thinking it through, such a quirk hardening, durable skin would be the perfect foil to Katsuki's quirk, it could withstand his blasts easily. Such a thing was a threat and he NEEDED to learn how to overcome it. Fortunately it was Monday so he could find the extra and study him. Not in the creepy stalker way Deku does though fucking shitty nerd couldn't be subtle even if he wanted to.
Katsuki might have overestimated himself if you asked Eijirou. From his side of things, he saw a classmate of his have his shoe lace untied and looked like he was about to step on them so he reached out to get his attention. Then the next second he saw a glare and a flash of something and his body instinctually reacted which was a good thing as he was blasted by the guy's quirk. But it might have been Eijirou's fault for spooking him and he seemed on edge. Especially as Eijirou embarrassed himself with his stupid rambling. But in his defense the guy had a weird as fuck vibe and his stare seemed...ínstense so he tried to get out of there as soon as possible. It was only when he got home he recalled he probably should have asked the guy to at least repay him or some shit for the his now ruined sleeves.
In school the next day he felt eyes on him and he had a good suspicion of who. When he gave a glance back and saw a head of blonde turn quickly to look away he sighed. At first he thought the guy was still angry but he never approached Eijirou. This went on for a week until he just decided to confront the guy for being lowkey obsessed with him for some reason?? He waited until the hall was mostly empty and just sped over to the guy quickly just so he couldn't run off.
"Look...we need to talk..how about at the end of the hall there's less people.."
All he got was a grunt and a rough nod. God this blonde guy was so weird. It sorta makes Eijirou feel relieved in a way, he's usually more nervous or weird but this new school kinda just makes him feel normal. Although...something about that doesn't settle right even though it's sorta what he's been wanting since his last school. He was getting off track with his thoughts again, and the guys red eyes were just sorta staring holes at him.
"So what you want to say to me so bad.."
It sounded more like a demand but Eijirou sighed and continued on because he just wanted to get this over with.
"Look man, I know you've been trailing me and it's kinda super strange and uncomfortable if I'm honest, but-"
The blondes face was kinda contorting and now Eijirou felt a little bad.
"-I mean, if you wanted be friends you coulda just aske—"
"GET OUT OF MY SCHOOL, MOPHEAD!!!"He didn't get to finish as the guy literally exploded at him. Pulling him by the shirt and yelling quite loudly he might have blasted Eijirou's eardrums with his voice. Would someone's quirk make them that explosive or is he just like that, who knows? Then the guy just roughly let go and stormed out. what the fuck was that???
'THIS DUDE'S GOT SERIOUS ISSUES!!!'
"Ahh, you're Kirishima right?"
"Huh?"His thoughts were quieted as some random dude popped out of nowhere?? He had green hair and looked even more nervous than Eijirou does on a normal day.
"Uh-yeah.."
"Right, so sorry about kacchan-I mean bakugou, he's, well I don't mean to pry it's just, well he's sorta just like that with everybody so I wouldn't take it too harshly. And I think-you're just someone who interests him is all..maybe it's your quirk or something...or did kacchan really just got a-no no no way, kacchan being like a tsundere...maybe.."
The guy was muttering a lot and Eijirou was sure if he even heard all of that right so he's just gonna take this at face value. That first mumble got to him though.
"I mean, it probably has to do with my quirk? My quirk is hardening, it's not flashy but uh, well he accidentally used his quirk on me and I used my quirk in defense-it was a misunderstanding is all!...I dunno why he's so interested.."But the greenette had stars in his eyes. He started asking rapid fire questions and started answering them to himself before he just stared at Eijirou brightly.
"Your quirk is so amazing! All the possibilities! You'd be an amazing hero!"
"Huh?? You-you really think so? But it's not flashy.."
"Flashy quirks don't always necessarily mean they are the best. Besides, with a quirk like that you could take bullets or hard hits from plenty of physical quirks and be fine or blasts from flashy quirks. As well with training you could punch away at walls or dig well for rescue missions and be overall a very well balanced hero!"
"Woah...I never really thought of my quirk like that..thanks...ah! I don't know your name, I'm sorry!"
"Oh no I'm sorry I never introduced myself, I'm Midoriya Izuku!"
"Kirishima Eijirou, but you already knew that heh.."It seemed Eijirou made a new friend at this school, Midoriya was all about hero's like him. He also knew about crimson riot and basically no one knows about crimson riot so it felt so good to finally find someone who likes him too! And that thing with Bakugou never really went away. The guy after two days started hounding him to fight him and train. But literally he sucks, he sees how he treats Midoriya and that's just not cool man.
"SPAR WITH ME COWARD!!"
"NO MAN,YOU SUCK!"Bakugou couldn't understand what the hell was this guys problem. It's a fucking honor to be under his interest. And to be invited to a spar with him. He doesn't fight extras but this one is interesting. Kirishima Eijirou, his quirk is a perfect foil to Katsuki's and he needs to overcome it and be able to do more. It doesn't help that this guy is just rejecting his good ass offers to spar!
'The hell is his problem..'
It was annoying the hell out of him. Not to mention Deku of all people got to be close with Kirishima for whatever fucking reason. Shitty nerd! Why the hell does Kirishima even think he sucks? He's Bakugou katsuki, he's number one at this lame ass school the fuck does he mean katsuki sucks. Maybe the guys hardness quirk affects his head since it's so fucking thick it can't see katsuki's greatness. Guess he'll just have to show the guy the excruciating way ugh.
Which was simply inserting himself around Kirishima, being 'cool and aloof' which to kiri was being weird and just stubborn. It was weird for everyone or just Eijirou. Plus it didn't help that Midoriya would suspiciously find a way to disappear leaving Eijirou alone to deal with Bakugou.Which wasn't exactly right since he just moved himself out of sight but nearby to observe the two. Because at first it truly was about sparing but..izuku has observed them enough and kacchan for years to understand him a little. This was so officially kacchan first sort of crush, and he doesn't even know!! He has to observe this, and maybe he's sorta rooting for it, I mean, kacchan is amazing and with Kirishima by his side they could really become a crazy cool duo! A hero duo that balances each other out, as well they are romantic partners?? Okay maybe izuku is obsessing over this idea a little too much but he can already think of the cute merch and possible scenes of the two dating!
