So we're all aware of the running joke that Izuku does not remember the iconic river scene,
This one right here. The one that Katsuki is constantly referring back to as "the moment where it all went wrong" and being all dramatic about. His core memory of Izuku being a hero.
But I raise you this... Katsuki does not remember this scene,
This is the scene where a young Katsuki has just finished winning a fight against some older kids that were being bullies.
The scene that is Izuku flashes back to when thinking about Katsuki's heroic nature.
Because Katsuki does not remember a time when he stood up to Bullies instead of being one.
guess my current terminal brainrot :^)
i might come back and render it fully someday but its not a promise cuz i know my dumbass self forgets so easily OTL
oh sure bkdk seem like polar opposites, but they both, in fact
are stubborn
have zero fucking chill
like... they’re so fucking emotional. my dudes.
... and yell a lot
ambitious/competitive
will throw down anytime anywhere
absolute nerds
academically inclined
strategic geniuses
all might/pro hero trivia
but also jocks
ambiverts (they seem just as content around others as they are by themselves)
also note they have similar number of friends
socially awkward af tho
& get embarrassed easily
one stammers, one gets snappy -> both flustered
yet ironically very charismatic!!! people are drawn to/inspired by them
fiercely protective (of each other and loved ones)
are the splitting image of their mothers
chafe at authority (their forms of deviance differ)
self-sufficient/struggle asking for help
have admitted willingness to break his body to achieve his goals
idiots
these two are just the same fucking person, different fonts. “i know him better than anyone else” yeah, fucker, cause your souls were clearly cut from the same cloth. one of you just has a potty mouth and the other fools people with his doe eyes into believing he’s innocent
I don't know how to properly emphasize that this is the only time that Bakugou has worn his uniform properly and it's specifically to convince Endeavor to give them Izuku's location.
Izuku: I want to be with you for the rest of my life.
Katsuki: Damn, that sounds like a marriage proposal.
Izuku, getting down on one knee: That's 'cause it is.
I need more Izuku and Bakugou backstory. I need to know who approached who first and how they became childhood friends. And then I need 2 or 3 chapters in a row of them finally talking. Somehow I need more of them and their relationship
