Izuku Midoriya has always been on the shy quiet side. The smart and attractive 22 year old is an artist right out of art school who is looking for something different. He finds that something different when his friends drag him to a tattoo shop to get his first tattoo. He meets Katsuki Bakugo here, the shop owner and rather talented tattooist. The greenett is instantly attracted to the rough around the edges , brash, loud blonde who on whim hires the greenett to drawl up some tattoos for the shop and clients. It's now Katsuki who now finds himself drawn in by his shy new artist. The two both soon find out just how true it is that opposites attract. * BakuDeku*
