"𝙌𝙐𝙄𝙏 𝙇𝙊𝙊𝙆𝙄𝙉' 𝙊𝙑𝙀𝙍 𝙈𝙔 𝙎𝙃𝙊𝙐𝙇𝘿𝙀𝙍!" ---- At U.A. High, secrets don't last long. So when Katsuki Bakugo's phone lights up with a message from a contact named "Homebody <3," the class explodes with questions. Who is she? How long has this been going on? And how did Bakugo-loud, volatile, impossible Bakugo-manage to hide a girlfriend from everyone? As rumors spiral and an unofficial investigation takes over the dorms, the truth remains quietly out of reach. Because Bakugo and (Y/N) aren't hiding anything. They're just... private. They've been together since middle school, loving each other through quiet gestures instead of grand displays-shared snacks, exchanged notes, a hand resting over clenched fists. While the class searches for drama, they miss the steady, unshakable bond right in front of them.

"𝘽𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙬, 𝙆𝙖𝙩𝙨𝙪𝙠𝙞" "𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐭" "𝙍𝙪𝙙𝙚" ---- When Katsuki Bakugo disappears under accusations that threaten to destroy his career, the last place he expects to wake up is in a stranger's barn-half a world away from hero society, buried under hay and silence. Y/N is just a farmer. She lives half an hour outside Tokyo, wakes up before dawn, and knows more about cows than pro heroes. She never planned on hiding Japan's No. 5 Hero-but when a wounded man shows up needing help, she doesn't turn him away. As the city hunts for Dynamight, Katsuki learns a different rhythm of life: early mornings, muddy boots, quiet kindness, and a woman who sees him not as a weapon-but as someone who deserves rest. While the truth inches closer to the surface, two lives collide in the middle of nowhere. 🥇 Bakugoukatsuki 07/01/26

"𝙒𝙖𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙖 𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙡𝙡?" ---- When Pro Hero Katsuki Bakugo ends his relationship to "protect" the woman he loves, he thinks distance will make things easier-for both of them. But distance only amplifies the silence... and the silence becomes deafening. (Y/N) refuses to crumble. She rebuilds her life with new friends, late-night shifts at a quiet bar, and the unexpected comfort of a charming magician who seems to know exactly when she needs to laugh. But healing isn't linear and heartbreak leaves shadows that don't fade easily. Half a world away, Bakugo unravels. He tells himself he made the right choice. He tells himself he doesn't care she's moving on. He tells himself he can breathe without her. He's wrong. When a single rumor shatters his fragile denial, Bakugo finds himself fighting a new kind of battle-one he can't win with explosions or brute force. It's messy. Human. Terrifying. And it forces him to confront the one truth he's been running from: you don't stop loving someone just because you think you should.

"𝘉𝘢𝘣𝘦, 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘶𝘱?" ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── When Dynamight hires a quiet, dreamy sidekick with a strange sweat-based quirk, he never expects she'll become the one person who can calm him, match him, challenge him-and eventually marry him. Years later, their 15 year old son, Reihana is ready to prove himself at UA while battling the weight of his father's legacy and a dangerously powerful acid-sweat quirk of his own. With each challenge, he discovers who he is and who he wants to become. But villains don't wait. Life doesn't slow down. And the Bakugo family soon finds themselves facing high-stakes battles, high school drama and unexpected events. Explosive, emotional, and endlessly heartwarming, "Start Me Up" is a story about love that burns bright, family that fights for each other, and the beauty of growing together-even through all the chaos.

One day (Y/N) receives an invite from the one and only Deku to give a guest speech about being a Pro Hero to the new students of UA high school. Little did she know.. She will not be the only guest speaker... THIS STORY IS CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF BEING EDITED, PLEASE MIND ANY GRAMMATICAL MISTAKES 🥈 bakugoxreader 07/11/25 🥇 heros 14/11/25

"𝐁𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐠𝐨." "𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 !?" "𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐭 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲." ---- When (y/n)'s best friend Jiro asks her to fill in as lead guitarist for a one-night charity concert, she expects awkward rehearsals, maybe some stage fright, and definitely a headache or two. She does not expect to be stuck teaching Katsuki Bakugo-explosive, loud, annoyingly talented Bakugo-how to sing and drum at the same time. He's passionate, intense, frustratingly competitive... and absolutely clueless about keeping tempo while opening his mouth. Somehow, that becomes her problem. Between late-night practices, chaotic band drama, and the confusing warmth that keeps growing whenever Bakugo looks at her, (y/n) finds herself swept into a rhythm she didn't know she was missing. It was supposed to be one concert. One night. One favor. But sparks fly when opposites collide, and soon (y/n) learns that some accidents... create a chain reaction you can't stop.

"𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬, 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐩 𝐛𝐲 𝐧𝐨𝐰.." ---- When the elusive vigilante known as Ephemeral crosses paths with the explosive hero Dynamight, neither expects their worlds to collide in a whirlwind of danger, secrets, and unexpected connection. By day, (Y/N) is a skilled operative with a past she's desperate to leave behind. By night, she's a phantom thief-turned-hero-in-training, navigating the murky line between justice and survival. Bakugo, ever the brash, relentless hero, finds himself drawn into her world-first as a partner in missions, then as something far more personal. As threats mount-from the shadowy PSIA to deadly villains with quirk-altering powers-the two must rely on more than strategy and strength. Trust, honesty, and raw emotion become their most powerful weapons. Between tense investigations, adrenaline-fueled battles, and stolen moments of domestic life, sparks fly, walls fall, and hearts collide.

"𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐝𝐚𝐲" "𝙅𝙪𝙨𝙩.. 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙢𝙣 𝙗𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙤" ════ ⋆★⋆ ════ At twenty-seven, (Y/N) is done. Done with doubles. Done with understaffed night shifts. Done with scrubbing questionable substances off hospital walls. Her quirk-Chiropractor, the ability to relieve pain and tension with a touch-might make her a miracle worker, but it can't save her from burnout. She's exhausted, sarcastic, and one cracked vertebra away from quitting healthcare entirely. Then life throws her the world's most explosive curveball: She moves into the house right next door to Bakugo Katsuki-now the No. 5 Pro Hero, fully grown, annoyingly gorgeous, and carrying a secret guilt he's tried to bury for years. They haven't seen each other since their early twenties. Since that night. Their reckless, drunken, unforgettable one-night stand. To her? It was hot, wild, and not worth a shred of regret. To him? It was a mistake-not because of her, but because he thinks he didn't treat her right. Didn't ask her out. Didn't make it special. Didn't deserve it. And now that she's back in his life, his guilt turns into something unexpected: Homemade bentos. Left on her doorstep. Every morning. Like an apology he can't stop giving. But as her terrible shifts pile up, her quirk starts easing his old injuries, and their tense doorstep conversations turn into something dangerously warm, one thing becomes clear: This isn't about regret anymore. It's about healing-his body, her burnout, their past. And maybe, if the universe doesn't interfere first... something worth fighting for.

"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..
