Something About The Way You Draw Katsuki And Deku’s Magnetic Interactions Towards One Another Makes

I literally couldn't be happier with this sketch page I commissioned from @pbeltarts!!!! They totally captured the progression of Izuku's emotions that I was looking for. I can't wait to post the fic this is inspired by! (also, you should join their patreon and become a member of the frog cult) Image description: Izuku Midoriya is being hand fed from a bento box by Katsuki Bakugou on the left side of the page. Izuku is facing the camera and we can see Katsuki is standing between his legs facing away from us while feeding Izuku. Izuku's expression is slightly shocked and concerned. The rest of the page is three close-ups of Izuku's face where we can see Katsuki's hand playing with Izuku's mouth and tongue with lots of drool strings and tears. Izuku's expression transitions from discomfort and uncertainty to arousal. There is a last close-up of Katsuki's face in the bottom right corner where he is looking pleased and licking Izuku's saliva off of his fingers.

aw i love when these freaks share a brain cell

Most of the time, I wish people wouldn't water down characters to fit in the mould of romance—– But I do understand that fiction is often an escape from reality, and fans perceive art the way they need to.

But I really love BKDK.

And I wish people would realize that, without watering down the intensity of a character, the reality of the dynamic is far superior in it's rawest form.

The growth driven by respect they have for each other. The admiration and recognition through setting each other as their own standards.

Twin blades—– clashing, TRANSCENDING affection and reassurances.

Sparring, fighting and racing each other out of pure Respect. Hand holding? No, collar grabbing and screaming:

"I will surpass you."

"I see your greatness and I will mold myself into your worthy adversary."

I promise you—– that the accuracy of how egoistical, competitive and fragile Bakugo is... is exactly what makes BKDK thrilling.

I think it would be beautiful if more people recognized that love in it's purest form, is deeper than just the surfaces of physical affection and verbal affirmations. The reassurance that your existence matters, through admiration and sometimes both art and people, softness of love lies in what was never communicated directly.

True admiration isn't contingent on praise. It’s recognizing a person's depth, their struggle, and their brilliance without needing to demand it be reflected back. The most profound love often doesn't shout; it whispers in the spaces between words, in the gestures that go unnoticed.

I hope that people recognize that unconditional love does exist, and it's BKDK—– in their rawest form.

y’all I just found out that Mirko doesn’t have a winter hero costume; I know that bitch be freezin or going into hibernation

P.S. I only found this out b/c I went to do an OC insert in a sketch that she’s in and she was wearing a jacket so I was like ‘oh is that hero winter costume so let me draw my winter costume.’ So I did some research and there is literally zero references for her winter costume so either I’m cooked or I’m cooked

Ah yes

when you died protecting your crush but you came back to life so now it’s awkward

I’m drawing this later trust (IMA KISS THAT BIG ASS FOREHEAD)

i’m loving the forehead reveals

Thank you for everything, Kohei Horikoshi
