!!! Hi, Yes, I’d Like To Establish That Kari Calling Katsuki Any And All Petnames Currently Occupies

💕 bunkugou 💕

I am banging my fists on a table as we speak. Oh my god, I just?? I really like this?? I remember when you messaged me about this, and I was super excited to see how you handled this!! To be honest, I never expected Kariage and KariBaku to get as popular as it did. When I first started shipping it back in August-ish, literally no one I knew had heard of it. Only a few Japanese and Korean writers and artists had works spread across the web, and @pyrrhicwildfire had their fic on ao3 that came out last year, which helped me get hooked.

Now, we’ve got a whole ass Discord server for KariBaku, so many talented artists and writers creating amazing content every freaking day, and a doc for Kariage and his rise to fame?? Please, I am so happy that you made this!! It was absolutely perfect, even for a work-in-progress, and I can’t thank you enough for making it <33

The Kariage Master Doc

It is a somewhat collective from of Kariage and his character. It's still unfinished but I'm planing on adding onto it. Such as expanding on the history of the character and other smaller aspects. Going more into depth with his dynamic and the versatility that it holds.

tch.

Do u have any special headcannons about Katsuki and kariage’s relationship?? R they a clingy couple, do they have a date night every Friday etc etc???

I absolutely have special headcanons for the boys!!

So, first of all, physical affection is a big part of their relationship. Kariage is a possessive boy, so he loves showing his love of Katsuki out in public. He kisses and hugs him, holds his hand or waist, even pulls him onto his lap when he knows he’ll get away with it. Katsuki pretends to hate it, but he loves when Kariage does those little things. He might scream and shout otherwise, but he also adores the fact that his boyfriend can and will just pick him up whenever, just because he wants to.

Sometimes, though, Katsuki will accept the affection without even grumbling, and even initiate affection. Kariage loves those moments more than most things.

As for dates, because they are both so busy with Hero school, they go on official dates once every three weeks. Their dates usually consist of eating at new places, attending festivals, going hiking, or going on double dates with Mito and Seika. Between dates, though, they do still hang out, often studying together and trading Heroics lesson notes, going to the arcade with the crew, and training together.

They also have little traditions in their relationship. Katsuki often prepares bentos to last a week for both Kariage and Kanji so they don’t have to go without food at home. He also carries around lollipops and other hard candies for when Kariage starts itching for a cigarette. Kariage always greets Katsuki by pushing his bangs up and kissing his forehead, and the two of them have a tradition of going on a week long camping trip with Kanji once a year to relax and take in the beauty of nature. The two also have a habit of doing the three squeezes when holding hands to nonverbally tell the other “I Love You.”

All in all, they’re a very cute couple and I love them lots!! <33

i saw ur title in my recommended and i came as fast as i could

!!! AHH I’M SO HAPPY YOU’RE HERE!!! <3 i really love when new people come to my lil corner of tumblr 👉👈 i hope you enjoy your stay here :DD

okay but consider,,,,

kariage and bakugou haven’t talked in a long time. after katsuki went to UA they lost contact and stopped talking to each other even though they were best friends. until one day katsuki is out with the bakusquad plus the rest of 1A. they’re at the mall just looking around having a fun time. until someone pushed bakugo. they were just messing around but he got caught off balance and fell. and landed in someone’s arms. he looks up and sees kariage who has changed so much but is still the same old bad boy he definitely didn’t have a crush on. but he caught him like his knight in shining armor.

“guess you’ve fallen for me huh”

and all katsuki can do is blush while he stares at those dark brown eyes that used to be so familiar.

If you guys catch me replying to asks like a month late, no you didn’t <33 No, but, for real, I love this. Like, Katsuki and Kariage losing contact despite being best friends is just so sad and real, because you know it had to have affected Katsuki a lot. After all, they’d been friends since they were kids, add Katsuki’s obvious need for affection and desire to be understood onto that and Katsuki’s probably feeling pretty shitty. But, since there’s no way to get back into contact with Kari, he’s left feeling so lonely, not that he’d ever willingly admit it. And, on some random day, he’s out with the idiot brigade and the rest of his loser class at the mall. And, like always, they’re always so touchy-feely. He doesn’t understand how they could just poke and nudge and shove at each other so easily when touch, for Katsuki, hasn’t felt right in a whole year. Hasn’t felt good or safe and warm, which is why he dodges, ducks, bends away from the wayward, wandering hands of his classmates. And, then, out of nowhere, Shitty Hair knocks into him. Katsuki knows immediately that it wasn’t purposeful - unlike the other idiots, Kirishima knows to respect his boundaries, and he doesn’t go out of his way to tease and touch him when Katsuki obviously doesn’t want it - because Shitty Hair jolts away right after and opens his mouth to apologize. It doesn’t matter, though, because Katsuki’s already tripped forward and he’s falling and -

Someone catches him.

It wasn’t necessary, of course. Katsuki’s a Hero-in-training, he would’ve easily been able to regain his own balance if some random stranger wasn’t there to grab onto his waist and steady him. So, Katsuki straightens and looks up, already preparing to step back and put space between himself and the hands on him, and stops.

Because the person who caught Katsuki isn’t a stranger, and the feeling of the not-stranger’s hands on him suddenly don’t make him feel like bugs are crawling under the surface of his skin, doesn’t make him feel cold, doesn’t make him feel wrong. No, the touch feels nice, and the sheer surprise of that is what makes Katsuki stutter when he blurts out the name of the not-stranger, who’s hands are gripping him protectively: “K - Kariage?”

Kariage, the boy Katsuki used to visit arcades with, used to tell off for his nasty smoking habit, used to laugh with, used to love. Kariage, smelling of smoke and leather and the cheap vanilla cologne he used to wear back in middle school, with his messy undercut and pierced ears and half-lidded eyes, caught Katsuki. He grins down at the blond-haired boy, smug in a way Katsuki has missed, and huffs out a short laugh.

“Guess ya fell for me, huh?” he teases, dark eyes sparkling with mirth, and Katsuki can do nothing but fall in love all over again.

if katsuki’s cheeks spark when he’s flustered, does kariage’s ears smoke when /he/ is?

asdfghjk I am looking at this so freaking hard. Like, the cheek sparking thing is not going to be canon in my version of the ‘verse, but the absolute ingeniousness of having Kariage’s ears literally fucking smoke when Katsuki’s being far too cute for his own good?? Immaculate.

Like?? Imagine Kariage literally fucking smoking when Katsuki does anything. Katsuki wears Kariage’s huge ass hoodies? Katsuki curls up in a little ball when he’s sleeping? Katsuki training or working out his backyard? Katuki initating hugs and kisses? Katsuki smiling? Katsuki existing? This all results in Kariage getting so flustered that his ears start smoking and he coughs out smoke, and it’s the cutest, most unexpected thing ever.

asdfghjkl!! This is just absolute perfection, in my honest opinion <33

Them™

asdfghjkl I’m gonna be honest, I don’t really have words to describe how much I freaking love this. Like, I knew distantly that you were writing a fic, but I was not prepared for the greatness you wrote. I actually cried, literal tears fell out my eyes, I was this close to sobbing. You’re writing style fit so freaking well for this story, and it just tied everything together in a prefect little package.

The part where Katsuki begins to worry about whether Kariage would want to stay with him - an embarrassment, a wild animal, a villain - and everything after practically tore my heart to shreds. How you describe Katsuki walking home after the festival, hiding to keep people from seeing his face was absolutely heartbreaking. The way Katsuki acknowledges that baths make him feel good enough that Kariage gave him stuff to make him happy, but thinks that he doesn’t deserve something like that after the Sports Festival, instead taking a shower so cold it piractically hurts? That’s where I really started to cry.

And, when he curls up with Kariage in bed and just starts sobbing? Yeah, I got shivers reading it. And, the atmosphere of the story when Kariage is comforting Katsuki felt so real, so personal, that I actually had to take a break in reading becuase I was feeling it. Feeling the hurt and desperation and love and validation, and, yeah, by the end of it I was full out sobbing. It was absolutely perfect, and I’m so freaking thankful that you decided to share it, because it was simply amazing. <33

“You hurt, baby?”

The concern in Kariage’s voice nearly made his knees buckle. It wasn’t what he expected, it wasn’t what he deserved. Kariage shouldn’t worry about him; if he was hurting it was his own fault, his own weakness which caused it. 

It was fine, he was fine.

But Kariage was looking at him in that knowing way he always wore whenever Katsuki didn’t voice his true feelings, brows furrowed and dark eyes sparkling in the room as he trailed his gaze over Katsuki’s face, hands still cupping his cheeks and the scent of cigarettes, leather and vanilla encompassing his senses.

Or:

The Sports Festival happens and Katsuki is falling apart.

Based on a hc I posted a while ago. I thought it was a sweet idea and wanted to write a full one-shot, the first in a series I’m planning on writing. Hope you like it!

dafsgsdhjs I’ve reread this about twenty times and it keeps getting better. Like, every time I go back to the beginning of this, it somehow gets more funnier? I freaking love this.

Aizawa being overprotective with it comes to his pseudo-son?? Him immediately giving Kariage the side eye because how can he trust such a delinquent around his model student of a kid?? Katsuki just being so oblivious about the tension between Kariage and Aizawa?? Aizawa giving Kariage a serious shovel talk and Kariage turning about and calling him old man and calling Katsuki a precious little princess?? Aizawa reigning in his frustration and urge to punch Kariage becuase he recognizes that this is one of Katsuki’s only friends?? Him immediately having regrets about allowing Katsuki to be around Kariage when he finds out that they’re MORE than friends???? THIS is utter fucking perfection, this is the reason I live, and the fact that this exists makes my life 500% better <33

Undercut-kun and Katsuki da- I mean Aizawa? How would that go? 👀

Honestly? I think that Aizawa would hate Kariage at first, like he would pull Katsuki to the side after he meets him and he’d go ‘Are you sure? Like... That’s who you wanna hang out with? Please reconsider, I love you but you’re an idiot and I will not hesitate to punch you in the face.’ All the while Kariage is just standing a few feet away behind Katsuki, looking straight at Aizawa and giving him a little wave before he smirks and pulls out a cigarette. Aizawa has to close his eyes to stop himself from actually harming a teenager.

Meanwhile, Katsuki is completely and utterly oblivious as to why Aizawa is even acting concerned and he has no idea about the amount of tension between him and Kariage. He’s just trying not to smile while being like ‘can’t believe they finally met and they love each other, this is the best day of my life :D.’

Aizawa later talks to Kariage and tells him to be careful with the way he behaves around his so-student, his student because he doesn’t want this delinquent corrupting him in any way, shape or form.

But Kariage just waves him off and rolls his eyes, ‘yeah, yeah, old man, get off my back, I’d never hurt the precious little princess.’

Aizawa’s temples throb.

Fucking... princess? He’s going to punch him, he just knows he is.

But he leaves it alone and he moves on, he can’t force Katsuki to leave his friend behind, especially when he knows how hard it is for the kid to make friends in the first place. And he can’t deny that he looks really relaxed around that.... boy.

It’s not until Katsuki brings him to the dorms and Aizawa walks into the common room only to find Katsuki straddling the guy while they make out that he realizes they’re not just friends.
