    Summary

    "What do you mean? I'll still be in the industry," Izuku says, voice clear and reassuring. "I'll just be behind the camera."

    And that's the whole thing, isn't it? Two different sides. Katsuki will be alone on the stage. Alone in his dreams of being a film star. He hates that some naive part of him wanted them to come up together. Be one of those iconic acting duos dominating the screen–together and separately. Is it that crazy, though? They started this journey together. Spent it together for a third of their lives at this point. How will he do this without him?

    Will he even see Izuku anymore?

    Katsuki stiffens, bitterness creeping its way up, inevitable. "Hm. Sounds familiar."

    Izuku's brow quirks, a blank expression masking over.

    Katsuki just chugs the rest of his beer, exhaling when he finishes. "Sounds like Deku."

    OR

    A Very Meta Actors AU - After a depressing table read for the final season of their career-defining show, My Hero Academia, Izuku and Katsuki both end up at the same bar to drown their sorrows. As they bicker, reminisce, and reconnect, they come to realize just how much their characters' journeys mean to them–and how much they mean to each other.

    Summary

    "I wanna take you out, Izuku."

    Katsuki means 'on a date', for his birthday.

    Izuku hears 'in a fight', like an invitation to spar.

    It's one thing to be in love, but it's another to be idiots in love. But like always, they figure it out. Eventually.

    Summary

    It started at drinks with his past classmates, but now Katsuki’s sober and a bit, minorly, entirely, lost.

    Being with Iida was good. Fun. Exciting, new, and a thousand other adjectives he could use to describe their one night of passion. Because that’s all it was: one night.

    Summary

    “S’nothing bad,” Katsuki insists. “Just. Different.”

    Izuku’s shoulders unwind, and he hums. “Different how?”

    It’s vague and noncommittal when Katsuki shrugs and rubs his face into Izuku’s hair. He has to slump down to be hidden all the way. “I…” His heart thuds not only in this chest, but through his whole body, inside his skull. “Wanted to try something new?”

    Katsuki dredges up the courage to ask for something. Izuku delivers in spades.

    Summary

    “Kacchan,” Izuku says, pressing the cool tip of his nose into Katsuki’s throat. His lips are cool too, and wet, when they follow. “Do you…do you want—” His fingers press into Katsuki’s waist, and it feels nice, that touch. But Katsuki’s heart is thudding out against his ribcage from inside with enough force to scare him. “Can I…?” Izuku’s hand slides under Katsuki’s shirt, strokes over the small of his back, and then walks down to the waistband of his sweats.

    He’s waiting for Katsuki now. But the longer Katsuki thinks about how he needs to answer, the less he’s able to answer, and he’s—Izuku is so hesitant. He’s so careful when he brushes his fingertips over the front of his pants, and Katsuki tenses up in an instant.

    “Izuku—fuck, not—not today, I—” He tries to shuffle Izuku back, further away from his lap to give himself space.

    Izuku’s face is transparent. So easy to see the surprise and disappointment flash across it before resignation sets in. “Okay,” he whispers, sitting back. His hands are back on Katsuki’s shoulders, and even that feels like too much right now. “Sorry, Kacchan.”

    Katsuki heals after the war, and navigates his relationship with Izuku.
