Katsuki Bakugo dies on the battlefield, surrounded by chaos and the weight of a war that was never meant to be won. His last thought is of Izuku Midoriya, his rival, his partner, his everything. But death isn’t the end—not for him.

He wakes up again, in the body of a child, the same child he once was, with memories of the future burned into his mind like scars. This time, he vows, things will be different. He will fix everything: the war, the losses, the mistakes. He will save everyone, no matter what it takes. But the burden of knowing too much, too soon, weighs heavily on his young shoulders, and Katsuki quickly learns that changing the past isn’t as simple as it seems.

Izuku Midoriya was never meant to wield One For All. Not like this. Not at fifteen. Not with autism, ADHD, depression, and anxiety dragging him under while the strongest quirk in the world tore his body apart from the inside out.

But Izuku wouldn’t stop. Wouldn’t rest. Wouldn’t let himself be weak.

So Katsuki stepped in.

Because Izuku was drowning in a world that wasn’t made for him, and Katsuki wasn’t going to let him do it alone.

Through sleepless nights and broken bones, through overstimulation and spirals, through every moment Izuku tried to hold the world on his own—Katsuki was there.

Until the day he took the burden for himself.

Because Izuku had suffered enough.

And Katsuki was always meant to be the one who saved him.

Izuku roundhouse kicks Todoroki in the face. By accident. Probably.

Somewhere between the cyberbullying, the alcohol, and way too much physical proximity, Izuku and Katsuki end up making out.

Because of course they do.

(Or: How One Roundhouse Kick, a Meme Cake, and an Unhinged Friend Group Ruined—and Also Maybe Fixed—Izuku’s Life.)

It starts with a notebook. A place to put all the things Katsuki can’t say out loud. Battle notes, at first. Weaknesses, strategy, a way to keep one step ahead. But then it shifts. Becomes something else. The way Izuku moves, the way he mumbles when he thinks, the way his eyes burn brighter when he fights.

Then comes falling.

Slow and inevitable. The kind of love that creeps in like gravity, inescapable, unstoppable. The kind that feels like touching something too big, too bright, too dangerous.

Then comes the black hole.

Time bends. Light shatters. Izuku is gone. Ripped from him, scattered into stardust and silence.

Katsuki is left with two years of nothing. A restaurant instead of a battlefield. A notebook instead of a hand to hold. Memories instead of a future.

Then—Izuku returns.

Glowing, unchanged, humming with something bigger than life itself. His eyes aren’t just green anymore—they hold whole galaxies.

"I only meant to push it away," he says, smiling like he didn’t tear the universe apart.

But nothing is that simple. And Katsuki has never stopped reaching for him.

"I have spent my whole life chasing after Katsuki Bakugo."

When I was four, I followed him like a shadow. When I was ten, I reached for him even as he pushed me away. When I was sixteen, I realized—I never really stopped.

It should’ve been different. We should have stayed rivals, or maybe just friends. But I never knew how to love him in halves. Even when we weren’t speaking, even when he hated me, even when I tried to let go—I loved him. Quietly. Desperately. Like breathing.

And then, one day, I stopped being the only one reaching.

Because somewhere along the way, Katsuki Bakugo started reaching back.

It starts with little things. Tea waiting for me after a hard mission. The way he watches me when he thinks I won’t notice. The way he sees me—the real me, the one the world has forgotten in the wake of the hero they want me to be.

And when he snaps—when all the unspoken things between us finally ignite—there is no stopping it.

Because this was never a rivalry. This was never just friendship. This was never something we could have avoided.

This was a love story. And it was always going to be us.

I’ve lived a thousand lives.

I remember all of them.

Every time, it’s the same—I find him, I lose him. We fight, we burn, we die. One of us always goes first. Never got it right. Not once. Not ever.

But this time—this time, he’s not him.

Izuku’s gone. In his place is Haruto—same soul, same fire, but new. A girl, a fresh start. A future we were never meant to have.

I should let it go. Should leave her to live this life without the weight of a thousand pasts clawing at her heels.

But I can’t.

Because no matter how many times we’ve burned, no matter how many times we’ve lost—

We always find our way back.

And this time?

This time, I’m not letting go.

Look, body-swapping is already a pain in the ass. Katsuki thought the worst part would be dealing with Izuku’s stupidly breakable body. Izuku thought the worst part would be trying to not explode himself with Katsuki’s quirk.

They were both wrong.

Because apparently, the real problem is that being stuck in each other’s skin means feeling each other’s emotions. And Katsuki really doesn’t need to know how much Izuku still cares about him. And Izuku definitely doesn’t need to find out that Katsuki never stopped caring at all.

Now they’re waking up tangled together, finishing each other’s sentences, and—oh god—communicating telepathically. The class is terrified. Aizawa looks like he wants to quit. And the worst part?

They only have two weeks before they switch back.

Two weeks to pretend this isn’t happening. Two weeks to pretend they don’t want each other. Two weeks before they go back to being just Katsuki and Izuku.

(Or: A body swap quirk forces them to finally confront their ridiculous, soul-crushing love for each other. Chaos ensues.)

Izuku Midoriya died first.

Katsuki Bakugou followed.

Hell is not kind to children. It is not kind to anyone, but especially not to lost souls barely old enough to understand what they’ve done. Katsuki learns this the hard way—through fire, through hunger, through the hands of sinners who see him as nothing more than a commodity. He learns quickly that Hell does not care if you regret, if you suffer, if you break.

But Katsuki didn’t come here to suffer.

He came here for Deku.

Dragged into a den of demons, a city of sin and survival, Katsuki finds himself entangled in the strange, chaotic world of a certain red-eyed princess and her grinning monster of a business partner. But none of that matters—not the war they’re fighting, not the absurd concept of redemption, not even the tangled mess of alliances and enemies lurking in the shadows.

Because somewhere in the depths of Hell, Deku is here. He has to be.

And Katsuki will tear this place apart if that’s what it takes to find him.

Because he followed him once, and he’ll do it again. No matter where it leads.

Izuku Midoriya learns the hard way that heroism isn’t immune to burnout — or addiction.

It starts small. Sleepless nights. Pain he can’t shake. A prescription bottle with his name on it. But painkillers don’t fix what’s broken. They just make it quieter.

Until it isn’t quiet anymore.

Until his friends notice the empty stares, the missed calls, the way he’s wasting away right in front of them. Until Katsuki Bakugo decides he’s not letting Izuku destroy himself — even if it kills him to watch.

And in the end... it nearly does.

This is a story about addiction. About love. About failing so hard it nearly ends you — and about choosing to get back up anyway.

Side effects may include: withdrawal, relapse, recovery, regret, grief, rage, devotion, and two idiots too stubborn to stay down.

God made a weapon and forgot to name it love.

Alastor was never born. He was built—a divine anomaly, crafted to fracture the balance, unleashed to break the world. A creature of perfect control, elegant horror, and deafening static. Until she sang. Until she smiled.

Charlie Morningstar, daughter of Heaven and Hell, queen of lost causes, falls in love with the very radio-borne ruin her father swore would destroy them all. She dares to dream. She dares to trust.

And from that impossible trust comes a child.

Belle. A miracle born in Hell. A beacon. A question.

And suddenly, the monster God made has to learn how to hold something soft without breaking it.

This is a story about choosing to be more than what you were made for. About what it means to rebuild something sacred in a place meant for ruin. About demons who cry, angels who bleed, and one impossible family holding hands at the edge of Armageddon.

Hazbin Hotel: rewritten as a theological found-family saga where love is an act of rebellion and the Radio Demon is a dad now. Sorry.

It happened in the space between breaths. Between the echo of a dying scream and the snap of a world’s last nerve. Between what should have been—and what now was. Ichigo Kurosaki fell. Not like a stone. Stones didn’t drag the sky behind them in black-and-red streaks of bleeding spirit energy. Stones didn’t set the clouds on fire with grief. Not like a boy. Boys didn’t fracture the seams of dimensions just by existing. Boys didn’t carry swords like coffins, wrapped in cursed cloth and too much memory. Not like a hero. Heroes reached for the ones they could save. Ichigo wasn’t reaching anymore. He was falling. And the sky—God help them all—the sky cracked open like a ribcage. And Musutafu breathed in its first ghost. Izuku Midoriya saw him first. He shouldn’t have been on the roof. Class wasn’t for twenty minutes. He was supposed to be hydrating. Stretching. Reviewing rescue scenarios like a good little future hero. But the day felt wrong. Like static behind the eyes. Like a storm holding its breath. Like the world was leaning toward something.

Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugou get a second chance. No, like—a literal second chance. Magically. Against their will.

One minute they're grown men with battle scars and bad habits. The next, they’re ten years old again, sitting next to each other in a classroom like none of it ever happened. Except it did. They remember everything. Every fight, every word, every bloody inch of the road that brought them here—and neither of them is handling it particularly well.

Childhood was bad the first time. This time it’s worse, because now they know better.

This isn’t a redemption arc. It’s a goddamn forced replay. They're angry. They're grieving. They're trying. And somehow, they’re becoming something new—something raw and unfinished and sharp around the edges.

Second chances don’t fix the past. But maybe, just maybe, they can stop the cycle before it starts again.

Summary:

🕯️ Demons Flee From the Names Not Spoken in Heaven (Book Two of the Gospel of the Damned)

The war is over. The monsters stayed. And the Safehouse grew teeth.

Five years after the end of everything, the survivors did the unthinkable: they lived. They healed. They rebuilt. They became something no one expected—whole.

But when a town vanishes overnight—swallowed by spores and sorrow—and two children emerge with more power than control, the Safehouse answers the only way it knows how: With towels. With tea. With terrifying love.

This isn’t just a rescue. It’s the next reckoning.

Because some demons don’t run. They bloom. They remember.

And the family that built a home from ash and fury? They’re about to learn how loud mercy can roar.

Summary:

Katsuki Bakugou was never saved. So he learned to survive like a bomb learns to burn—loud, brilliant, and alone. Because needing someone was weakness. And weakness got you left behind.

So when he’s dying—again—when the heroes freeze and the world watches him choke, he doesn’t hope. He doesn’t scream.

He already knows: no one is coming. That’s fine. That’s always been fine.

Until Izuku Midoriya moves.

No Quirk. No glory. No chance in hell.

But he throws himself into the fire anyway—and everything detonates.

Because Katsuki breaks. In public. On camera. And the world doesn’t look away this time. It devours them.

What follows is not forgiveness. Not even close.

It’s a war.

A war of media trials and moral panic. Of weaponized children and state-sanctioned betrayal. Of trauma, transformation, and the feral miracle of found family clawing itself into existence in the ashes.

Because this isn't just a redemption arc. It’s a survival story. It’s a horror story. It’s a love story—just not the kind you think.

And it’s only the beginning.

Summary:

Izuku Midoriya is not okay. He hasn’t been for a long time. Living with undiagnosed BPD and masking every breath through autism burnout, he thinks he’s broken. Useless. Disposable. The world tells him he’s fine. He doesn’t believe it.

Then everything spirals.

One For All ends up with Monoma (don’t ask), U.A. burns, Shigaraki starts a war, and suddenly Izuku’s not the one who needs saving—he’s the one left behind. Katsuki holds the pieces together as best he can, but trauma doesn't play fair, and neither does grief. Monoma becomes a ghost in his own skin. Power shifts. People break. The world ends, and somehow, they survive anyway.

This is a story about what comes after the end. About learning to live with the parts of yourself you never wanted. About boys who mistake survival for failure. And about how loving each other—despite everything—is the bravest thing they ever do.

Breathing is a bad habit. But they're still doing it. And maybe, finally, that’s enough.
