Insomniac-Dreamss
This is a post-canon continuation fic eight-year time skip story that begins the moment Deku learns the truth, and realizes the last eight years were never empty at all. They were full of someone else's quiet devotion, carried silently, deliberately, without expectation of recognition. Bakugo and Izuku have always been part of each other's lives, but adulthood, trauma, and time have changed the way they orbit. The story focuses on reconnection into slice of life.
A few notes going in:
- This fic is written in alternating first-person POV (Bakugo / Deku). Each chapter stays fully inside one character's head.
- PTSD, survivor's guilt, and war aftermath are explored, including mentions of therapy.
- Romance is intentional, soft, and earned. Physical intimacy appears later and only where it makes emotional sense.
- Izuku is a teacher at U.A. at the start of the story. Bakugo is a Pro Hero
Updates are planned weekly or bi-weekly (I'll see my timing after the first couple chapters), with longer chapters that sometimes span multiple parts.
This is a story about what happens after. It's about endurance, choice, and finding home in someone who's always known your name.
Thank you for reading and if you hate it just lie to me hehehe 💥💚
