"𝘐𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘪𝘦, 𝘐'𝘭𝘭 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶. 𝘋𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘮𝘦? 𝘐... 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶." ============== When Y/n is taken in by an underground hero known only as Pale Ward, she's raised in secrecy-trained in silence, discipline, and control. Years later, she transfers into U.A. High School with a spotless past that feels almost too perfect... and a quirk she refuses to fully explain. Her arrival is unexpected. Her strength is undeniable. And Katsuki Bakugou notices. What begins as rivalry quickly turns into something sharper-trust, respect, and a connection neither of them knows how to name. With every secret she keeps, the weight on her shoulders grows heavier. Because some quirks weren't meant to be used. They were meant to end everything. And when the time comes, Y/n may have to choose between the life she's starting to build... and the destiny she was trained for. A slow-burn Bakugou x Reader story filled with action, mystery, angst, and romance.

When costume designer Takahara Mayumi-quirky, brilliant, and hiding a powerful Quirk-moves in with three pro heroes, she expects awkward living arrangements and maybe a little chaos. She doesn't expect friendship, found family, and a slow-burning tension with the last person she'd ever want to fall for: Bakugo Katsuki. Her life has always been about hiding-taught to suppress her Quirk after her pro-hero parents were killed and her older brother swore to keep her safe. But after a bad breakup sends her fleeing into a shared loft with Bakugo, Kirishima, and Kaminari, Mayumi's world begins to shift. As the guys grow to be more than just roommates, Mayumi finds herself pulled back into the hero world she thought she left behind. Between chaotic missions, rooftop confessions, drunken beach nights, slow-dancing at hero galas, and Bakugo being way too protective for just a roommate, the line between friendship and something much deeper begins to blur. But Mayumi's power is attracting attention-and not the good kind. As secrets unravel and enemies circle closer, her new family will have to fight harder than ever to protect the one person who never thought she was worth saving. A story of healing, slow-burn romance, dangerous secrets, and the loudest love from the quietest girl.

- "We're sparring, Fujiwara," he declared, as if the decision had already been made and refusing wasn't an option. - "Got you.~" she sang sweetly, a teasing smirk on her lips, mischievous eyes looking down as she pinned him to the ground in mere seconds. They met on a beautiful spring day, in a scene straight out of a romantic novel. He was strong. So was she. Perfectionists? Both of them. She hid her pain behind a beautiful smile; he knew it. He hid his insecurities behind explosive outbursts; she sensed it. In every way, they belonged together. In every way, everyone could see it. ────────── ✦ ────────── 𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘖𝘧 𝘢𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯~ 𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘻𝘦𝘳𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘖𝘧 𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘮𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯~ 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶. ────────── ✦ ────────── Update schedule: Every two weeks.

High-two future heroes bound by rivalry, loyalty, and a love neither of them ever confessed. Pride and fear kept their hearts silent, but Bakugo felt it anyway... and never truly let it go. After graduation, Katanabe disappeared without a word. No explanation. No goodbye. Bakugo was left with unanswered questions, unresolved anger, and feelings that never faded-no matter how much time passed. Nine years later, she returns as Japan's #3 Pro Hero, calling her former classmates together for a dangerous mission. Forced to fight at her side once more, Bakugo is confronted with everything he buried: the love he never moved on from, the hurt he never healed, and the girl who broke his heart without ever knowing it. As old wounds reopen and the truth behind her disappearance begins to surface, Bakugo must decide whether he can protect her again-knowing he might lose her all over. ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ Top Rankings so far!!! #1 in Yearner #1 in bakugou

"You're really starting to piss me off (L/N)." "You've been pissing me off, Bakugo." (Y/N) (L/N) was a cocky girl who wanted nothing more than to be the hero that leaves a mark nobody could get rid of. She wanted to be the center of everything. She wanted to be the sun. She was the sun. She was accepted into U.A and made great friends with everyone but one, they had a rivalry that would turn into something more once they got each other in check.

"I don't know how to be like this. But I'm tryin'. For you." Y/N grew up learning how to disappear. She stayed quiet when it hurt. Took up less space. Learned how to smile when she wanted to scream. She knows how to read people - their moods, their shifts, their silence - but she's still learning how to listen to herself. Now she's twenty-one. A pro hero with steady hands and a soft voice. She tells herself she's fine. She always does. Twenty-two, Pro Hero. He's the same rough edged, explosive, quiet and aggressive guy. But around her, it's different. She's quiet, steady - and something in him wants to protect that. So he keeps his distance. Not because he doesn't care, but because he does. More than he ever had. He's scared she'll get hurt. Scared he will, too. But no matter how far he pulls back... she lingers. In his head. In his chest. In all the places he thought were locked..

When you fail the U.A. entrance exam and get placed in General Studies, your dreams of becoming a Pro Hero start to fade - until you run into him. Katsuki Bakugo. Hot-headed, arrogant, explosive... and now your next-door neighbor. You don't get along - at all. But as your quirk draws more attention, so does his. Sparks fly in the hallway, tension brews during training, and the Sports Festival changes everything. You're not just the girl next door. You're the one who just might outshine him. And he hates how much he cares about that. ‼️SLOW UPDATES‼️ {lots of angst so be ready 🌝, mainly going to follow canon but it might have a few tweaks in it :) } *all my hero characters rightfully belong to Kohei Horikoshi* *cover art is not mine credits to the artist* #1 in #bnha 10/17 #1 in #bakugokatsuki 7/11, 8/14, 8/23, 10/15, 10/29 #1 in #jealousytrope 6/30 #1 in #angstyromance 7/21 #5 in #shinsohitoshi 7/23
