Hawks, Silently Minding His Own Business: …

Things I think Bakugo would pretend he hates but actually loves doing with you

Gossiping - Bakugo hates people and thus loves to shit talk. Yes he wants to know what Jirou told you she overheard Mina and Denki talking about. Do you know what Deku was talking about during class today with Cheeks? Something cringe and awful and he is certainly telling you all about it. Bakugo doesn’t want to be involved in any class drama, but he does want to know about it. He’s dramatic.

Skin Care - Bakugo is exceptionally pretty (He gets it from his mother). He’s got smooth, tight skin and soft hands. But with his quirk revolving around his sweat, he can get super anal about hygiene. You convinced him to try a face mask with you once, which he didn’t seem to mind despite the protesting. Now, usually sometime after dinner, he’ll slink into your room and watch you put your serums and creams on, silently saying “me next please”.

Holding Hands - I don’t think he does well with PDA. Bakugo is awkward when it comes to showing affection around other people. He doesn’t like to be concerned with what they might be thinking or their reactions. Plus, he’s sweaty. Ew. But he enjoys having you close. Something about holding hands feels very intimate. Maybe it’s because he uses his hands so much in his hero work that doing something soft and tender with them is…actually a nice change of pace. Bakugo will make a fuss if you grab his hand with others around but he won’t pull away.

Play Dress Up - Both of his parents are in the fashion industry, so buying clothes has become his worst nightmare. It’s so boring! God! His parents would drag him out for hours as a kid. He hates it! Well…he hates going with his parents. With you it’s different. He doesn’t know why, it just is. Bakugo loves to dress you up. He loves watching you come out of the dressing room and spin for him, showing off the items he picked out for you. Of course everything looks great on you; he picked it!

-Kazumi : do you love me because i have an amazing sense of humor?

-bakugou : babe, i love you despite your amazing sense of humor.

Bakugou Katsuki - Look at Me

===========================

He could feel it, the way his heart flutters, watching you heaving as you had your foot on Denki’s back with a tight hold on his arm. You’d completely immobilized him, rendering you the winner. It was your first combat training together, everyone was excited and energetic. You, however, were more nervous than anything. So when you had won in such a short amount of time, it surprised everyone. You felt your cheeks almost sizzle as heat rises in them, with everyone’s eyes on you, you thought you’d shrink to the size of an ant. You scurry off of Denki who looks at you with a wide smile, a little bit of dirt on his cheek.

“Wow Y/N! You took me by surprise there, you were amazing!” He sits up, the rest of the class coming to shower you with praise as well.

“Oh- well…I-“ You wave your hands in dismissal at the constant glory given to you, you felt like you’d pass out if you heard any more. As you’re backing away from your persisten classmates, not paying attention to what’s behind you, you felt yourself collide with something. Slowly turning to see, you’re met with Bakugou’s chest. Your whole body tenses and your head lifts to meet with his prideful gaze.

“Fight me.” He says with a self-assured smirk and dark, looming eyes. You jump and squeak, running behind Mr. Aizawa for protection. You felt like your heart was stuck in your throat as you hold onto your teacher for dear life. You knew how strong Bakugou was but the reason for your running wasn’t his menacing stare, but the way your brain kept repeating the same phase as you stood against his sturdy chest.

‘So cute!!’

The feeling of being so close to him, it was simply overwhelming! Your body had to get away before you melted before him.

“Bakugou! You’re scaring her!” Mina shouts angrily at the blonde boy, swinging her fist up and down in frustration at his aggressiveness.

“SHUT UP EXTRA!” He retaliates, stepping closer to his teacher which you’re hiding behind.

“Your training buddies have already been decided, Bakugou. Now let’s move on with the training!”

“Yes, sir!” The class shouts in unison at Aizawa’s demand. Dispersing to their places with their sparing buddies, Katsuki turns around with a “tch”. He couldn’t stop thinking about that stupid feeling in his chest, the one he felt watching you fight with your all. It was almost like when he watched All Might fight when he was younger, he’d feel such a pump of adrenaline from how awesome All Might was, but this was somehow different. He didn’t like it.

After your first interaction, the two of you generally kept a distance but you’d often find your eyes meeting, like both of you were always watching each other. You’d completely deny any time Mina or Jirou pointed out your constant stare, saying you just admired his power. They’d always give you a teasing look and giggle at your tinted face.

You had always been shy, ever since you were a kid. People have tried to help you overcome it but every time you were in front of unblinking eyes, words seemed to escape you. You would always strive to be better, but any progress was scarce and only noticed by yourself. Because of your shy personality, people felt the need to protect you, do things for you and make sure you’re okay. They always treated you like you inferior or weak, you even started to be believe that you were.

When you told people of your dream of being a hero they’d often discourage you, saying that heroes need to be brave and fearless, even your own parents tried convincing you to find another career path. It became another reason for you to fight for your dream even more, you want to prove to people, to yourself, that you don’t need protection. That you too, can save others.

So you trained, and trained and polished your quirks abilities, compensating your weaknesses. You did everything to be strong, but you still felt your brain go blank whenever someone spoke to you. All your training, meant nothing to those around you, they still thought you were weak. But when you got into UA, you felt hope fill your heart once more, they had recognized your strength, and you’d continue to show them that you were worth more than anyone bargained for.

When you first saw Bakugou, it was at the entrance exam. He had this fire in his eyes, his body never staggered, his voice never shook and his gaze never wavered. Your eyes met for a split second as he jumped over your head and exploded the robot villain you were going for. You felt your heart beat echoing through you, simply watching his unshakable movements made bravery surge through your body and for that split second his eyes met yours, you felt fearless.

To say you were relieved to see him in the classroom on the first day of school, is an understatement. While everyone coward in fear of him, you looked up to his careless attitude, he didn’t care about what others thought and you wish you were the same. The only reason for keeping your distance was to keep your heart from beating a hole in your chest and jumping out. You quickly understood you had feelings from him, but who are you to love him? You’re nowhere near as strong or brave, not to mention the other gorgeous people in class, they were all incredible but you…you were just you. To please yourself while not disturbing him, you watched him from afar and admired him from the sidelines, that was enough. You convinced yourself of that.

All the wonderful people in your class were so kind and understanding, so you made friends pretty quickly. You hung out with everyone, expect for Todoroki and Bakugou, though you would often speak with Midoriya. He’s also a bit shy, so the two of you had that in common and understood one another in that aspect. Bakugou noticed that. He noticed how the two of you grew close but he couldn’t care less.

It was at the sports festival, where you gave your all and showed the world that you were capable of being a hero, it was then he truly noticed you. After your first training session, he knew you were pretty powerful but the strength and diligence you presented during your 1-on-1 battle, it blew him away. His eyes widened as he watched you, grabbing his shirt and clutching the fabric tightly he tsked at the familiar feeling arising in his chest, it was there again. The dumb flutter of his heart, how annoying.

“Bakugou, is there anyone you like?” Denki asked teasingly. The boys of class 1a had gotten together for the sake of studying but it ended up becoming more of a chatter fest than anything.

“Tch, don’t be so stupid, dunce face.” He turned his head to look out the window of the common room of the dorms, your face creeping into the back of his mind.

“I’ve noticed you tend to watch Y/N quite a lot.” Kirishima adds, making some of the boys let out a long “ooooh”.

“She’s super pretty~!” Denki says in a dreamy way, thinking back on when you’d overpowered him during training.

“Yeah and she-“ before Mineta could utter another word, his face was engulfed by Bakugou’s hand, a small explosion going off and knocking the manlet to the ground.

“YOU DO LIKE HER!” Sero and Denki shout in unison making Bakugou’s face heat up with an unfamiliar stir in his stomach.

“I’LL KILL YOU!” He jumps at the two boys who only laugh harder. The only thing that spared their lives was Iida pulling Bakugou off of them.

After they’d all gone to bed, Katsuki couldn’t help but think about it. Had he gone and fallen for you? He covers his eyes with his forearm, sighing heavily at the fluttering in his chest. Whenever he’d lock eyes with you, you’d jump and turn away. Whenever he was close to you, you would practically run the opposite direction. Was he that scary? Did you hate him? His mind kept him up for hours, mercilessly berating him.

The next day he had dark circles under his eyes, not having gotten enough sleep because of you. He felt so sluggish and could barely focus, but when he heard he’d been paired up with you to spar, he suddenly felt a pulse of energy wash over him. Though he couldn’t tell if it was out of confidence or nervousness. Turning to get a glimpse of you, he found you already staring at him and like always, you quickly look away with a panicked look. Why?

You could look at Deku just fine, you always spoke to him, always laughing with that nerd so why not him? He felt his heart squeeze in a way that was rare for him, a painful ache that spread throughout his body.

You gulp, standing a few feet away from Katsuki whose palm already flare up with tiny explosions. Your brain focusing on how cool you think he is, but your eyes only manage to stare at his feet, not having the nerve to look him in his breathtaking eyes.

“Start!” Aizawa shouts. Bakugou wastes no time and runs right at you, jumping in the air as he winds his arm back and launching it forward with a powerful explosion erupting from his hand. You quickly dodge and counterattack with an elbow to his back, his eyes widen as he watches your movements. You had yet to look at him. Before you could activate your own quirk, he’s already charging at you again and your barely able to react but you manage to dodge him by jumping in the air and launching yourself off his back to get some distance.

“Damn it!” He shouts, hunched forwards as he stares at his hands, you watch him in shock as he trembles.

“Why won’t you look at me?!” Your shock having distracted you he’s able to land a blow, sending you flying back. Aizawa declares his victory but your mind only replays what he’d said. You struggle a bit as you stumble to your feet, Midoriya running to your side to make sure you’re okay. You give him a weak smile as he helps you get to recovery girl. The sight makes Katuki clench his fists and furrow his already tense eyebrows.

“Whatever…” He mumbles as he sits on the ground, thoughtlessly watching the rest of the class battle.

“They’re both oblivious!” Mina shouts in frustration, sitting on Kirishima’s bed as he’d gathered her, Denki, Jirou and Sero to talk about you and Bakugou. Sero gives a long sigh and closes his eyes while leaning on a wall.

“It’s true, they’re impossible to convince.” He agreed with Mina.

“Then we’ll just have to make them talk it out!” Everyone turns to look at Denki who seemed to have a plan in mind. Bakugou sighs as he makes his way to the front of Heights Alliance, looking at the text Eijiro had sent him.

‘Hey, meet me outside, I need to tell you something.’

He lets out an annoyed “tsk” as he puts his phone back in his pocket, mumbling to himself about how ‘this better be important’

But when he makes it outside, he doesn’t see Kirishima anywhere. Instead he sees the silhouette of your back under the dimly lit night sky. You’re looking up at the stars, like an idiot. Looking to the stars like they’re the most wondrous things to ever exists. You were always like that, seeing such rich beauty in small every day things, you always had something to smile about. But you never smiled at him. Bakugou’s pulled from his thoughts as he hears the entrance door lock, he shouts out an angry “OI!” As he runs to the door, banging on it, yelling at them to open it. The commotion startled you, making you turn around to see Katsuki recklessly banging and pulling on the door. You’d been tricked, hadn’t you? You knew it was odd for Mina to text you instead of barging into your room like she usually would. A panicked expression twits your features as a blush creeps onto your face, you’re alone with him now.

“B-Bakugou…” You say in a small voice, almost a whisper as you walk closer to him.

“WHAT?!” He screams at you, but your blush only grows as he looks at you.

“If you..shout like that, Mr. A-Aizawa will wake up…” Your gaze once more glued to the ground as you shyly stutter your statement.

“I-I think they’ll open up if we talk…”

“About what?!” You shrug your shoulders slightly. You knew what, but your words were stuck in your throat and you couldn’t cough them up. Not with the way he intently watches you, his eyes practically burning holes into you. The words he’d yelled during training returned to you, he’d completely misunderstood your attitude and you knew you had to do something about it.

“I’m sorry!” You say suddenly, nails digging into your palms as your hands formed tights fists. Your eyes stay lowered and your lips quivered, the beating of your heart ringing in your ears. Katsuki’s expression softens slightly, looking at you as you struggle to speak your mind, he lets go of the doors handle.

“I…I think you’re really cool…” You gulp, looking to the side as you lift your head a bit.

“And my heart…it gets excited when you’re close.” Your hand creeps to your chest, feeling your heart beating the way it does when you’re around him. Though it aches in the moment, knowing what is to come.

“I run…because I know, I’m not worthy of your attention-“ A lump in your throat begins to form, making it harder to breathe. “B-but…I like you!” You quiver as you fight the tears threatening to fall, your head hanging low again, not having the courage to look at him. Knowing how your heart will beg for his. As you sniffle, you feel a hand grabbing the sides of your face, making you look up. Within a second, your lips are met with his, in a rough and inexperienced kiss. You feel the tears forcing through and falling freely down your burning cheeks.

“You should look at me if you’re gonna confess like that, idiot.” He lets go of your face and shoves his hands in his pockets, looking away as the blush on your cheeks had spread to his. He looks at you from the corner of his eyes and his heart does that stupid thing again, because you were finally smiling at him.

Hello! This is my first ever request! :3 and I really love how you write Bakugo , and I wanted to ask if you could do a bakugo x reader headcannon where bakugo reacts while watching the reader go ham/ berserk with their powerful quirk during class exercise with robots and totally looking like a bad ass? ;)

Hey! Thank you so much and I really hope you enjoy this. It was really fun writing💕

bakugo dating headcannons

what I write for + links to my masterlists

Bakugo. Is. In. Awe.

He's usually impressed by you

He's seen you fight before of course

But Bakugo has never see you fight like this.

We all know how Bakugo really likes and admires super powerful and strong quirks like All Might's and even if your quirk doesn't have to do anything with super strength or isn't similar All Might's, Bakugo really likes the ways you being training and using it.

It doesn't matter what your quirk is.

You are POWERFUL and you are slaying.

make sure you don't drop your crown while you're taking all the bad guys down.

Kirishima had just pointed out that you were surrounded by robots in a Class 1-A training exercise.

But then- you get all of them

Every single one that was making a circle around you.

This surprises Bakugo so much.

And I'm not saying that he didn't think you could do something so cool

Because he did.

Bakugo believes in you 100%.

He knows you are extremely powerful.

He just wasn't expecting you do something so powerful with your quirk so soon.

He thought it maybe it may take a while for you to practice these moves and get used to them.

You also wreck the robots with such ease that the rest of Class 1-A is very very impressed with you.

Even Aizawa.

Everyone actually is speechless after watching you kick ass.

The first one to speak was actually Kirishima.

Right below this is exactly what he said about you to your classmates who were closest to him, including Bakugo, word for word.

"Dude, that was so manly."

Then everyone else started speaking up

"That was so cool!! You looked amazing!!" - Mina

Bakugo doesn't say anything to you about what you did until you're alone later

but we'll get to that at the end. he doesn't want to say what he really thinks in front of his classmates especially the really nosy ones, you know who I'm talking about.

But Bakugo did say "nice one,"

and maybe he added a nice nickname onto it

or a mean nickname, depending on how long you've dating and your personality lol.

Now, to be completely honest, when Bakugo watches you, there are only two thoughts that go through his head:

The first being you look so cool and badass

and the second is he wants to fight you.

Yes, Bakugo is going to ask to fight you later.

He wants you do to the same thing you did in training against him this time.

Please don't hold back.

Bakugo won't like that.

He really enjoys seeing you make progress in your hero journey and in training your quirk.

Bakugo is so freaking proud of you.

He can't believe he's in love with someone so powerful and cool.

He actually cannot wait to fight actual bad guys along side you.

Yeah, Bakugo doesn't like teaming up with people.

But after that training session, he realizes you will always have his and everyone else's back.

You are capable of so much and he's happy he gets to watch you grow even more powerful then you already are.

When you're finally alone with Bakugo later that night, he tells you his thoughts- not the ones about you two fighting, he'll talk with you about those the next day

Bakugo struggles to get exactly what he wants to say all out, so please be patience with him.

He's still working on his communication skills for you 🥺

But here's just a shortened version of what he told you:

1) the obvious, how absolutely incredible you looked.

2) He's so proud of you.

3) He's looking forward to the days where you two work together and take down villains.

all of these are so sweet, but there's one that stands out the most.

When you started to date, you may have been unsure of how long this relationship would last...

but now Bakugo has given you an answer

and you two couldn't be happier :)

2k follower event: yan!Bakugou’s confession

Dear ______,

Listen, I’m no good at this romance shit or being patient, so I’m gonna say it how it is: I need you to be mine. I need you by my side forever. And if you’re smart, you’ll realize I’m all that you need too. Meet me outside my dorm building after I finish training to accept my confession. The future #1 hero needs his lover, and you need me to protect your weak ass. I’ll treat you better than any damn extra could ever hope to, so you’d better make the right decision tonight.

-Bakugou Katsuki

(p.s. You will call me Katsuki once we’re dating)

bnha boys as your typical crushes!

character/s: bakugo katsuki, midoriya izuku, todoroki shouto, kaminari denki, kirishima eijirou

genre: fluff, mutual pining

notes: posting this before i disappear for exams :((

୭ 𝐌𝐈𝐃𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐘𝐀 𝐈𝐙𝐔𝐊𝐔 as the shy, unassuming yet friendly boy who sits next to you in class. he's always offering his lecture notes to you, picking up whatever you drop from your desk like the gentleman that he is, and makes a cute habit of tapping your chair lightly as a form of congratulations when you answer a question right. (he wishes he was bold enough to pat your shoulder instead) when he eventually does get bold enough, he'll stand by after school ends until he sees you, offering to carry your bag and walking you home if you'd let him.

୭ 𝐁𝐀𝐊𝐔𝐆𝐎 𝐊𝐀𝐓𝐒𝐔𝐊𝐈 as your childhood friend whose house is right in front of yours. one minute you're bickering nonstop as you're walking to school together, and the next he has a firm hand on your shoulder, moving you to the safer side of the sidewalk without uttering a word about it. relentless teasing is normal to the two of you. he's told tons of embarrassing stories from your childhood, but once you remind him of that time you took a bath together when you were four, and you tease him for his "teeny weenie," he could only glare at you as you let out a cheeky snicker, unaware that he's actually more flustered rather than embarassed of the memory. he's also had to put up with his mother gushing over you two. mitsuki claims that she's already planned out your wedding with your mother years ago. he acts irritated; you act embarassed, but there's no way to forget everything mitsuki said.

୭ 𝐊𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐀 𝐄𝐈𝐉𝐈𝐑𝐎𝐔 as your best friend's older brother, always radiating a warm, approachable aura. whenever you come over to their house, he tidies everything up, prepares the snacks himself, and will insist on walking you home when it hasn't even gotten dark outside yet. you'd have to keep your composure when your best friend starts gushing over their brother asking them about you on multiple occasions, "was l/n there? is l/n coming too? how's l/n?" when he runs into you at school, eijirou likes to give you and your best friend little headpats and friendly side hugs when you part waysー you're convinced eijirou's just the embodiment of the word comfort itself.

୭ 𝐓𝐎𝐃𝐎𝐑𝐎𝐊𝐈 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐎 as that dreamy-looking, gentleman of a guy, who goes to the same train station as you and has once let you fall asleep on his shoulder. although his initial instinct was to tap your shoulder and wake you up, it doesn't take a while before he decides not to, seeing how peaceful and adorable you look. he can't explain the warm, fluttering feeling in his chest as he gently props your head into a more comfortable position on his shoulder, careful not to wake you up. when you eventually wake up and immediately apologize for dozing off on his shoulder, he doesn't feel the slightest ounce of annoyance or discomfort, but he does feel the urge to protect you at all times. the next day, he sits next to you again, and he feels relievedー maybe even a bit overjoyed when you start talking to him. the day after, when there's particularly a lot more people on the train, he doesn't shy away from standing closely next to you. when people start bumping you, he cages you with protective arms, his hands laid flat against the wall next to your shoulders, while still leaving a respectful distance between you two. you're not sure whether your heart can still take it, but for once you wish the train would move slower this day.

୭ 𝐊𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐈 𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐊𝐈 as your best friend who never misses the chance to flirt with you. your friendship is anything but boring. when you unintentionally say things at the same time and with the same tone, when you do your ridiculously complicated, secret handshake yet pull it off flawlessly, and when you exchange flirtatious remarks nonstop and burst into laughter that's loud enough to echo around the room, people can't help but find your friendship wholesome (and want to bang your heads together). no one's surprised when denki stops flirting with other people, but it takes you aback when he starts talking a lot more sincerely about his feelings for you. when he does confess to you eventually, you don't know whether to kick his shin and tell him to quit joking or just say that you've also liked him secretly since day one.

Mariah Carey on being High Maintenance

hot things bakugo katsuki does

✸ ft. bakugo katsuki

✸ info + warnings: prohero bakugo, suggestive

izuku version :: todoroki version :: sero version

✸ always has his arm wrapped around you in public.

he doesn’t mind wrapping it around your shoulders, but he’s more likely to hold you by your waist. he thinks it sends a message to any wandering eyes that you’re spoken for. though, he does make it clear that it’s from a place of protectiveness and not jealously. he likes pulling you into him so that you’re closer and he can feel you. if he’s taking you somewhere you’ve never been or you’re just distracted, he tugs you toward him and in the right direction, his fingertips giving you a little squeeze as a reminder to stay focused. his fingers tend to roam, running up and down your side as you two walk.

✸ cooks for you.

he’s always sure to ask what you have a taste for before setting off to make it for you. he actually enjoys when you watch him because loves showing off his skills. whenever he cooks, he always wears short sleeves or tank tops so the fabric doesn’t get in the way, but it also happens to show off his muscles as he chops away a vegetables and prepares the rest of the meal. he’ll call you over for a taste test and hold a sample up to your mouth, a cautious hand under the utensil so nothing makes a mess. if you like it, he’ll plate if you. and if he’s feeling extra nice, he’ll even feed it to you.

✸ smirks and licks his lips when you’re annoyed with him.

he thinks it’s hot when you’re fed up with him and does not try to hide that it kind of turns him on. he’d never do it if you were genuinely upset about something, but he finds himself doing little things that bother you like skipping past the show you like when you’re both trying to find something to watch or leaving the toilet seat up. something about you rolling your eyes or raising your voice at him makes his pants feel a little tighter and he can’t help but grin about it. the fact that him doing this riles you up even more is only a bonus for him. if he’s lucky, maybe you’ll be generous enough to put him in his place.

✸ wipes his sweat away with the bottom of his shirt.

he doesn’t believe in using towels; why would he go out his way to get one when his shirt is already sweaty? so he just grabs the garment by the hem and pulls it up to dry off his forehead after his workouts. while he’s busy making sure the beads of sweat aren’t dripping down his face, his whole abdomen and chest are on display. the workout is an entertaining show on its own, but getting a peek of his chiseled abs makes for a great finale. but now that he’s using his shirt as a makeshift towel, he might as well take it off so he can reach his neck with it, right?

✸ keeps his eyes on you while you’re talking to him.

even if he’s busy doing something, he’ll drop it or turn away for a moment to make eye contact with you. he doesn’t let things like his phone or background chatter distract him. having his undivided attention on you is a little intense, but he just wants you to know that he’s listening to what you’re saying. if for any reason he isn’t able to look at you, he nods and hums along so that you’re certain that he hears you. if you stop in the middle of a sentence or abruptly because you think he’s not paying attention, he’ll prompt you to continue and reassure you that he was listening.

thanks for reading! comments and reblogs are appreciated <3
