MHA is a dumpster fire of angst right now, so enjoy this lighthearted thread.

Love the idea of Katsuki in a universe where everything’s the same, except he didn’t grow up with Deku. Not bc I hate the childhood friend dynamic (I ADORE it), but bc
imagining Katsuki getting to know Izuku as an adult is hysterical. Can you imagine how fucking *stunned* he’d be by Deku? Not only by his looks, but by the many, many different facets of his personality.

At first he’d probably find him a *bit* too cheerful and nice, and snark
about him behind his back to co-workers—AKA the Baku Squad, who immediately know why Bkg’s so riled up over the other pro. Not because they’ve known him since High School and have a deep emotional connection..... nah, they know because Katsuki’s cheeks resemble
strawberries whenever he rants about the annoying new addition to their agency. That, and he spends a hell of a lot of time glaring at Deku through the blinds of his office window for someone who claims to hate his personality.
Eventually Izuku would rope him into a conversation, as he does, and Bkg’s (conscious) opinion of him would drastically change.

Bkg: So, Riot told me you’re an All Might fan. That’s pretty fuckin’ cliché, but I get it. I’m his biggest fan, probably.
D: No, I am.

Bkg, not expecting a challenge but immediately preparing to regurgitate as many All Might facts as possible: Oh, really? Well—

D: No, I literally am his Number One fan! His official fansite has a ranking list determined by a lot of variables, actually: trivia
knowledge, amount of merch collected, how many events you’ve attended over the years...

Bkg, visibly bristling: Well, that seems pretty classist. Maybe I just couldn’t afford to go to as many events as you.
D: Aren’t your parents fashion designers? 🤨

I imagine this conversation ending with Katsuki immediately heading back to his office, where he screams into a pillow. Fucking stupid condescending nerd.

Although the fact that he knows so much about All Might is pretty sexy,
he privately muses to himself. Not that anyone but him needs to know that.

He’s in for a shock when he realizes that cheerful and fucking nerd aren’t the *only* sides to the pro.
Realistically, Katsuki would probably know that he’s shredded right away, or at least would assume that he is. Deku is a pro hero, and his power is super strength.

But this is MY feel-good thread, and it isn’t supposed to be realistic... and besides, I love writing Katsuki
who is incredibly smart and good at what he does... but possesses no common sense.

So let’s pretend he assumes Deku is just as frail as he is short, and that his quirk protects him and powers him up.
Assuming he avoids Deku like the plague in the changing areas at their agency, (he does, because he doesn’t want to see what Deku looks like in his boxers—no, he doesn’t.) we’ll say that the first time he ever sees his co-worker in a state of undress is at an Onsen.
Katsuki didn’t want to go to the damn hot spring, he sticks his hands in hot water enough for training, thank you very much. But alas, his friends managed to rope him into agreeing to a weekend trip to a resort. He reluctantly agrees to go along.
He *should* have asked more questions, particularly who was on the list of invitees, because he nearly drops his towel when he heads out to the hot spring and sees Midoriya Izuku lounging in it. Nude.
Kirishima and the other male heroes are behind him in the changing room, so Deku is all by his lonesome in the water. His eyes are closed, hands behind his head as he relaxes.

The idiot probably needs this more than Katsuki does, considering how much he overworks himself.
And, yeah, sure, pot calling the kettle black and all, but *still.*

The idiot is already missing an arm from his early years as a pro, and has insane, scary scars running up his other one.

At this rate, all that’s going to be left of Deku in a few years is a torso.
Katsuki feels himself getting weirdly emotional over the thought, even though the mental image he’s conjured up is more goofy and cartoony than gory. He swallows, tossing his towel to the side and climbing in.

Normally, he would sit as far away as possible
from anyone in the spring. Sure, he’s comfortable with his body, but that doesn’t mean he wants to be pressed against some idiotic extra!

But Deku, he thinks begrudgingly, no longer fits into the category of ‘extra.’ He isn’t sure when the switch happened, exactly,
isn’t sure when Midoriya went from a mere workplace annoyance to someone that Katsuki respects and even admires, but, well. He’s okay with change.

Even if he’ll never, *ever* voice his shift in opinion out loud.

He wades through the warm water, settling next to Deku and
resting his head against the side of the heated spring, eyes already heavily lidded. He needed this, too.

Eventually (and this is solely due to gravity, *not* instinct,) Katsuki’s head starts to droop, and it tips over, cheek smushed against Midoriya’s shoulder.
The other pro startles awake with a soft little gasp... and then he emits a high pitched, un-heroic shriek when he realizes who is right next to him, *touching him,* in the nude.
And that’s how their entire friend group got banned from an Onsen resort before half of them even stepped foot in the water.
This was something I randomly came up with while writing with a friend! I love goofy threads, so I thought I’d try one out. The BKDK hockey AU won the poll, btw, so except an update for that soon, along with others!!

If you enjoyed this... you know the drill. Like ‘n’ retweet.
