You weren't looking for anything-certainly not the tattooed, broad-shouldered baker behind the counter with a guarded stare and hands dusted in flour. But day after day, you find yourself drawn back, pulled into his warmth, his teasing, his unexpected gentleness. It should be simple. Sweet. A slow burn from strangers to something more. But the past lingers-shadows of a love that left you wary, scarred, and scared to trust again. Can you let go of what broke you to make room for something new? Or will your past keep you from the future waiting in Katakuri's arms? ~~~~~ Mature & Modern AU story Cover photo is not mine (found on Pinterest, credit to artist) Any additional photos will be credited when able, otherwise all found on Pinterest I don't any of the mentioned characters, just this story! **Cross posted on AO3**

As he continued to look down at his patterns, his words were sincere: "These are a constant reminder of my shame. And... so was she." Rumi perks up curiously, keeping quiet so that he can continue. His face was pained, but Jinu quickly found the will to mention you, "I... had a lover." You feel your body grow rigid as you await his next words. Was this also going to be a made-up version of the truth? "She was the light in my darkness." Jinu smiled sadly, remembering your wide grin that was only for him. "When she spoke, the words of Gwi-ma were silenced. When she embraced me, the itch of my patterns went away. When she kissed me, I felt human again." ˋˏ-༻❁༺-ˎˊ "Gwi-ma sent you to watch me?!" "Just because your plan is working, doesn't mean he can completely trust you, Jinu. After all, you did create one of the greatest rebellions the demon realm has ever seen." "I did that for you, y'know... To see you again." ˋˏ-༻❁༺-ˎˊ "This isn't like you, Jinu." Your steps echo in the black abyss as you approach him. "Did Gwi-ma send you?" His golden gaze meets yours, shimmering in the shadows. "This is between you and me." You pick at your claws, feigning disinterest. "What is going on between you and that girl? With the purple braid." "I don't know what you're talking about." He laughs bitterly, turning his back on you. You appear before him with eyes of hot gold, burning with jealousy. "Don't you play dumb with me, Jinu. I see the way you look at her, the way you once looked at me." His gaze softens, but only for a moment. His silence only fuels your wrath, but you control yourself. "Don't forget that YOU were the one who made me join Gwi-ma, turning me into THIS. Because of that, don't ever think you could get rid of me so easily." As you pass him, you mutter into his ear, "I won't let you get your happy ending. I promise you that." ˋˏ-༻❁༺-ˎˊ • spoilers! Follows the K-Pop Demon Hunters • angst, but I promise a happy ending

#3. animexreader 07/30/21 (Y/N) (L/N) was just a regular teenager like any other, he behaved pretty well, and usually got good grades. He was usually a cold and distant person and didn't really have anyone to turn to after his parents left for a "business trip" a few years back, so everyone was used to his cold demeanor. Other than that there was not much that stood out from him....other than volleyball. He was always considered a prodigy when it came to things like volleyball, but after a while he drifted away from it. He didn't feel the rush he used to when playing anymore. He still loved the game, but he didn't know why he just didn't feel satisfied. After a few weeks he decided to leave the team Will this years' first years get him to join back? Will he get the satisfaction he used to before he quit? Will he become Karasuno's Golden Crow once again? Sup bishes, now I know what you're probably thinking, another story and you haven't even finished the other two!?!? Yes I know, and I apologize, but every time I look at my two stories I think, "I could add some more". so this story will be here now too (I'm going off the sub version but adding from (Y/N)'s backstory, etc. So I ask you not sue me) This will go on for as long as Haikyuu goes on, I will be getting my story from other people's stories and the anime as well, also, if you know me you know I ain't doing none of that gay shi (there's not many haikyuu x male readers, and those that are, are mostly full homo), sorry if that's what you're into but that's not really my thing, that and also I don't think I'm adding any romance to this book(I am), okie that's all byeeeee

[Bakugou Katsuki x Villain!Reader] The last time Bakugou saw his childhood friend, (Full Name) was at the playground in their neighbourhood park. Ever since then, she has been reported as missing - still not found till today. He had accepted that he will never see her again until the attack of U.S.J where amongst the villains stood (Name). From then on, Bakugou vows he will do anything to bring her back to his side once more. Warning: Cursing (I mean it's Bakugou we're talking about so it's normal.)

Nearly 2 months after Kira Nanami's disappearance, police have finally linked her disappearance to the League of villains. Requesting the aid of pro heroes, U.A is front in line to assist in the recovery of the girl, thats where Bakugou makes an unlikely connection. * I do not own any of the characters from My Hero Academia* *I do not own any of the art used* I hope you enjoy :)
