They look so cute here I want to put them in my pocket ☹️

l've been thinking it'll be so cute if he visits him in the middle of classes bc his schedule is really busy as a hero, so he just goes to see Deku at any chance he gets 😊 maybe they have lunch together and Bakugou tells him about his missions and Deku gives his insight and also tells him about the interesting quirks of his students...

Bakugou trying to act normal and not spoil the big surprise he's been preparing for Deku with the rest of their friends... 🥲 and being so excited to tell him, but he doesn't want to spoil it...

Thoughts & Restraint

oh NOW people are turning? now people are seeing what we’ve been saying for years? the parallels weren’t enough, their obsession and devotion to each other? katsuki willing to die with nothing on his mind but Izuku the first time wasn’t enough? it took him doing it AGAIN for you to see it?

not to mention with the latest chapter people who HATED bkdk suddenly feeling confident enough to admit bkdk was a legitimate threat. “they DO have the strongest bond and deepest connection and clearly care about each other the most, but thank god huh?” SO IT HAD YOU SCARED.

I’m not accepting anyone who spent years perpetuating homophobia, misogyny, and bigotry suddenly admitting that they feared bkdk’s possibility then trying to play nice. “you were right I just didn’t want it to happen” Be Quiet.

U CANT MAKE THIS UP 😭

Never in my wildest dreams did I think we’d end up here post-canon.

We had three seasons of Katsuki being various shades of angry and two where his cute aggression was in overdrive and any real feelings he had were buried beneath his guilt, inferiority, and rage.

So many bkdk fics from this era had them in a situationship of some kind largely because Katsuki Bakugo was the poster child for emotional constipation. The future of bkdk was often agreed to be this delicious angsty cocktail of yearning and we ate that up. Izuku and Katsuki loving each other but being unable to say it? The tension, the misunderstandings, the regency-esque moments of hands brushing? Bruh. Gorgeous.

And then season six happened and Katsuki apologized, calm, empathetic, validating, and boy did that open up doors for bkdk’s future, but that was followed by season seven where simp!Katsuki really found his sea legs, embraced his new normal and his all-encompassing obsession with Izuku and went LITERALLY RIDE OR DIE for him

Followed later by his return to the manga where everything he did screamed “I’d do anything, break my own bones, sacrifice my own life, my potential, my career, my money, all for him”. Boy came back from the dead and was all-in for Izuku and has never looked back.

We had tsundere!Katsuki down to an art and now we have simp!Katsuki too and whiplash has never in my life made me so happy. We get the best of both worlds. It has never been better to be a bkdk.

Katsukis PR team smacking their damn heads when suddenly Katsuki starts really giving a shit about the ranking because Izuku has his suit and they are competing(flirting) in the field now. And they have realized that he was sabotaging his own ranking the entire time, on purpose.

Their shock when, after Izuku joins the Heroes again, Katsuki doesn't treat fangirls/boys and paparazzi like leeches(as much) and they have to clean up less messes and do a little less damage control, and he just seems in a better mood overall.

Their abject horror as they now have to worry more about explaining the optics to Katsuki of how intense his competition with Hero Deku is(it looks Hella fruity and people are starting to talk).

Their sighs of defeat when Katsuki makes it clear he doesn't give a shit about the optics, and continues making public proclamations about him and Deku being the top heroic rivals ever seen, and how now nothing will stop him from becoming No. 1 now.

Their redoubled shock when it comes out that their client, Katsuki Bakugou, was a major contributor to the state of the art suit that Hero Deku is now wearing in his unprecedented comeback. And that Katsuki confirms the rumors without so much as a chat with the PR department first.

The way they just give up all together when the pieces come together that this whole time they have been running PR with a man so singlemindedly concerned with giving his childhood friend/partner/Boyfriend?? a leg up JUST so they could compete together, and how obnoxiously obvious they both are now that they are both in the public eye.

The hindsight that every move Katsuki Bakugou, GEMG DynaMight, has ever made in his career was for the sake of a future where he and Izuku are running the show together.

One day, one of them is definitely going to earn the rights to write a behind the scenes biography about Katsuki because it has the makings of an insane romance story on top of a big drama about GEMG DynaMights early career. It'll come out right after Katsuki and Izukus marriage lmao.

Don’t give me alpha, playboy, flirty Bakugo, give me awkward in social situations, doesn’t know how to flirt because why is that important, has never been on a date because he gets too nervous, doesn’t know how to talk to women or men unless he’s yelling or scolding them, who doesn’t care about the concept of virginity because why does it matter, who only ever thought about dating someone because of Izuku, who only ever thought anything to do with dating/sex because of him Bakugo

Kacchan likes Deku being the big spoon but he wont admit it!

Serious question, and sorry if it's rude, but why dkbk and not bkdk? Katsuki has such a dominant personality it's odd to see him the bottom lol

Dominance/submissiveness is not equal to top/bottom

I've explained it before

Technically, I don't have to justify what I like to strangers

BUT I also like sharing stuff about what I love so instead of justifying it, here's a quick, somewhat related presentation on how Katsuki Bakugo's arc follows the heroine's journey:

5. and on a COMPLETELY unserious note, this is my favorite ship dynamic:
