ARRARARAR Masaru And Mitsuki Would Fucking LOVE Kirishima. Like, Katsuki Would Have Him Over For One

You ever be thinking about the character™ and just *heart wrenching sobs*

Ehehehe, chat, I finally found someone who sells ot3 keychains and got KiriBakuDeku, look how precious!!! :DD

(They're from WyntersRiddle on Etsy and Insta, please go check them out!!)

yeah guys she’s sorry

Yes, buff Izuku is unbelievably important to me. Yes, I believe buff Izuku is cannon. But stupid, lanky teenage boy Izuku who just HAPPENS TO BE ABLE TO PUNCH YOU SO HARD YOU BREAK YOUR RIBS is also pure comedy gold and precious <3

AU where Uraraka dies instead of Toga, and Toga is left with the uneasy realization she never finds herself falling in love with someone again...

Kirideku I’ve grown quite fond of you. Very sweet very cute very adorable.

Horikoshi, give us Gentle and La Brava art for Valentine's Day and my life is yours 🙏🙏

Watchbox has ruined me as a human being

My favorite KiriDeku headcanon will forever be that Izuku loves the normalcy that comes with being with Kirishima. So many of his closest relationships are built off of anintense emotional connection: his past with Katsuki, his shared grief with Uraraka, his understanding of Shoto's past, and those relationships are GOOD, but they weigh on Izuku's heart in a way he could never explain.

In second year though, his connection with Kirishima makes him feel...normal again, like he's a highschooler, a teenager falling in love. Kirishima takes him to arcades, and comic book stores, and cafes. They both blush and stutter the first time they cuddle on the common room couch together. They walk each other to class. Inko gushes over how handsome Kiri is. It's normal, it's safe, it's comfortable, it's a real, human connection that doesn't sit on the shaky foundation of trauma Izuku knows he'll need years to process.

And sure, there's bad days, nights Izuku sneaks beneath the covers of Kirishima's bed to cry in the other boy's arms, or days Izuku notices the way Kirishima seems quieter than usual, as if embarrassed to simply take up space in a room. But Izuku never leaves those moments with his chest hurting or the ever-growing worry he wasn't prepared to process or deal with those feelings. No, those moments of comfort are so much more soft kisses on scars and movies played to distract from bad thoughts then tear-filled shouting matches or awkward stunned silences.

Falling in love with Kirishima is what breaths humanity back into Izuku in their second year, and fuck that's beautiful.

I know a lot of people (myself included sometimes) love versions of Katsuki (especially post-war) where he has a big group of friends/actively is a beloved member of the class, but there is something about withdrawn, asocial Katsuki that is so special to me. Like, Katsuki that has grown-up with the fear that having friends means having more people that might abandon him if he's "not good enough". Katsuki that doesn't know how to take up space in a room without shouting or lashing out to prove he's there (and thus, after the war and becoming less loud, becomes strangely quiet cause he doesn't know how to enter a conversation). Katsuki who sees every act of kindness from a stranger or acquaintance as an act of pity, terrified they see through the false confidence he has. Katsuki that's used to people being repulsed to him when they first meet him and never being given a chance. Katsuki who clings to people like Kirishima and Izuku, and would risk his life for them, because they closed the gap between them, because they picked up the slack and forged the beginnings of friendship because Katsuki was never taught how to, because (much like Katsuki feared) they saw that insecure person Katsuki was hiding yet still wanted to love him.
