Izuku Midoriya is a small and vulnerable quirkless boy, someone that needs to be protected from bullies and all the other dangers of the world. At least, that's how everyone sees him... What they don't know is that there dwells darkness behind those eyes, evil lingering in his oh so innocent smile and power unimaginable running through his seemingly quirkless body. It's been years since they last saw each other when he and his childhood friend Kacchan meet again. But will the blond hero in training be able to see through the façade? What would happen when Deku's mask finally falls?

Bakugou Katsuki is a Shounen manga artist and Midoriya Izuku is his assistant. The two have been working together ever since their manga got published. Fighting against the deadline is hard but it isn't that much of a problem for them. The hardest problem for them is... confessing their love to each other! Inspired by Gekkan shoujo Nozaki-kun. Main pairing: Bakudeku Side pairing: Kirikami (hinted on chapter 33, start at chapter 35)

"What was the point of talking if you weren't listening all these years?" Katsuki Bakugo, number two pro hero, was pronounced dead. He'd been missing for a little over a year when it was official, but Izuku couldn't bring himself to terms with it. Not completely, at least. Through the help of his friends and comrades, he'd finally managed to somewhat grow out of a shell of despair. He had to. For the sake of those whom Katsuki left behind, as well as the rest of humanity. All of these things considered, Izuku's 'new' life came to an abrupt halt, when he was informed of something concerning Katsuki and the other Pros and civilians who went missing... Something, he just wasn't about ready to believe. ⚠Trigger Warning⚠ -Character death -Depictions of violence -Depression/Suicidal thoughts (I'll put warnings before designated chapters) Cover art can be found at: 15e671021aa1d82954074479350
