    Summary

    “Who in the hell did you get in a fight with, Deku?” Katsuki demanded again. Izuku groaned loudly, ripping up a handful of grass and sprinkling it all over his face. The expanse of stars flickered in and out of view, reminding Katsuki of much simpler clear nights – clear nights when he still had this idiot beside him, but lucid and covered in bruises from bike crashes and tripping over roots, not fistfights with strangers.

    “Does it even matter who?” Izuku finally muttered. “It was just someone.”

    Katsuki looked over at his best friend, curled up on the ground with bits of blood coating his lips and blades of grass sprinkled all over his messed-up face. “I guess it doesn’t matter,” he admitted, “but I’d prefer you fucking invite me next time.”

    Summary

    At age thirty-five, being at the top is… 

    Living alone in an apartment big enough for five. It’s closing your eyes and inhaling the crisp spring air, only to remember war-scorched skies and the metallic scent of blood. Passing by a laughing group of strangers, only to hear screams for help. Watching your colleagues around you either get married or fall apart—there’s no in-between. It’s an itch that you can’t scratch out of your skin, where old lacerations have amassed on epidermis. The ringing in your ears that doesn’t go away no matter how many times you’ve changed your hearing aids.

    It’s sleeplessness even when your body is so exhausted, because your mind is on overdrive. Yesteryear’s failures are monsters breathing under your bed. The friends you let slip, the lives you couldn’t save.

    The boy with green eyes.

    Twenty years later, Katsuki rescues Izuku from a villain attack. As they rebuild their friendship from scratch, he learns what it means to be a hero.

    Summary

    As if Izuku didn’t have enough trouble keeping his intruding feelings for his unfairly attractive best friend at bay, Ochako had to go and teach him about the Pocky Game. Now here he was, his lips wrapped around one end of a chocolate stick, while Katsuki’s wrapped around the other, faces mere inches apart.

    And they were both too stubborn to back down.

    Izuku had a feeling he knew where this was headed.

    (He made a mental note to remember to thank Ochako later.)

    Summary

    It was over in an instant.

    It was over with Katsuki’s small retreat backward to look at the board. Over when Katsuki’s hand slipped over the squares, only to grip a piece between his fingers. The glorious moment – over, punctuated with the drag of Katsuki’s queen across the board, and a final dreadful clicking sound.

    Katsuki laughed, coming close again.

    He whispered right into Izuku’s mouth, “Checkmate.”

    Summary

    He hadn’t thought about it in years. It was easier that way, pretending Izuku didn’t exist; that Katsuki hadn’t done what he’d done. But now Izuku was back. Back in the same town, the same school, the same class. Right in front of him, mere feet away, was the object of every fucking feeling Katsuki didn’t want to feel. The source of his problems, his hatred, his anger, his regret, sorrow, self-doubt, insecurity—everything he didn’t know how to feel was back, and Katsuki couldn’t escape any of it now.

    Or,

    Katsuki's childhood friend moves back home after living with his dad in California for five years, and now he has no choice but to face old feelings.
