Torrent | Bakugou x OC by camoflauge4146

Complete as of 10/19/2025!! ~~~ A student with a water-based quirk joins 1-A with a past and the skills to match. Intrigued by her quiet, yet fiery demeanour, who cracks first? With opposite interiors and exteriors, join these two on an adventure of butting heads, heartache, and possible love. This is an MHA fanfic; all the MHA characters we know and love belong to Horikoshi, loosely based on the manga with some extra scenes for support. Settle in, and enjoy the ride. Labeled as Mature for mentions of abuse and strong language. Chapters are marked for skipping. credit to: @seisyunbotbot on ig for the cover!!
