Pairing (s): bnha boys x gn! reader
↳ Includes: Midoriya, Bakugo, Todoroki, Kirishima & Kaminari
Part 2 includes: Sero, Shinsou, Shigaraki, Dabi & Hawks HERE
↳ SLOW BURN
you and Izuku got partnered for a hero strategy project, analysing past battles and having to create counter-strategies
"if we adjust reaction time for this move we could- oh uhm, I'm talking too much again, I'm so sorry!"
he's always a little shyer with you around, fumbling over his words
the night before submission, you two were at the library studying late when he stops you
"wait... would it be okay if I... walked you back to your dorm?"
you thought that his nervousness was adorable
"sure, I'd like that."
the walk is quiet and all you can hear is the wind
"you're incredibly smart, you know?"
it caught you off guard but it felt... nice? like butterflies in your stomach
the project was now over so you two weren't expected to continue meeting up
the slow building tension lasted weeks after until you decide to finally say something
you go into the library - your safe space where you and izuku became close - looking for some form of comfort
until you see him there... looking for something? or someone?
the two of you looked at each other for a few moments
"y/n, i like you a lot!"
"i like you, izuku!"
a... mutual confession? at the same time??
"wait, what? i-i mean, i've liked you for a while but i didn't know if you-"
you cut him off, "me too!"
↳ ACADEMIC RIVALS
you and bakugo have both been competing for the top spot in class since before you could remember
every exam, every project was a battle to see who could outdo the other
"you should just give up now. i've already won."
you take your seat next to him, rolling your eyes
"i don't give up bakugo, why would i start now?"
the whole session is intense, even though it's just a 'short 'practice' test which isn't going to make a difference to your grades
every time he saw you write something before he did, he would complain under his breath
"damnit."
suddenly you get to the last question
you don't remember learning this...
quickly glancing at bakugo to see if he's struggling too, you notice him already writing
panic seeping through, you rush to write down an answer just as bakugo stands up
you glance up from your work to see him smirking down at you
"you better hurry up, don't want to be the last one finished."
smacking your pencil on the desk and standing up with your test, you smile at him cockily
"last one finished, my ass."
you stride to the front of the class to give the teacher your test as bakugo leans on the door with a confident grin
"if you wanted to copy me so bad, you could've just asked."
you freeze, "hey! i did not copy-"
but he's already out the door, smirking at you over his shoulder
↳ FAMILY RIVALRY
you grew up being taught that the todoroki family were snobs who never had to work for what they got
so when you were partnered for a training exercise, you could imagine how awkward that went
"so do you have a strategy?"
"mhm"
you'd been trying to talk to him the whole exercise but he continued to shut it down
"right... so are you going to explain it or am i expected to just follow your lead?"
a nod. a fucking nod.
that caused you to snap, "you know, you could at least pretend that you care, or is ignoring people just a Todoroki thing?"
he froze.
slowly he turned to look up at you, "you think i'm ignoring you?"
you opened your mouth to answer but he cut in
"look, i already know how this works. you hate my family, so you've already made your mind up about me." his gaze sharpened, "so why should i bother to change your opinion?"
the question had caught you off guard because honestly, truth be told, you didn't really hate him, you were just taught to
"todoroki-"
"shoto." his voice was softer now, "i know what my family has done to yours, but i'm not like them. so please... call me shoto."
↳ MUTUAL PINING
you and kirishima have been friends for ages, always side-by-side - training or hanging out
but recently you can't help but think something feels different?
the way he looks at you a little longer, or how your heart flutters when you see him smile
everyone can see it - except you two
"you two are practically dating already!" mina teases
"no way! we're just friends!"
but the awkward silence and mutual look after says otherwise
kirishima begins using training together as a subtle (or not so subtle) way to show off his strength
"I bet you can't beat me, y/n!"
"well, i don't lose, Ejiro so bring it on!"
after that particularly tough spar the two of you collapse on the grass smiling, looking up at the stars
you see his heard turn, like he's about to say something but he pauses
you notice and decide to say something first
"do you ever feel like... we're waiting for something to happen but don't know what it is you're waiting for?
he swallows hard, "yeah. all the time."
another wave of silence
"y/n, i think we both know what it is we're waiting for."
before you can answer, he leans in as his lips gently brush yours and for once, this is what feels right.
↳ ONE BED TROPE
it was a school trip / training camp and somehow the two of you got partnered up
he was so excited about sharing a room with you that he begged for you to let him pick which one to stay in and for some stupid reason, you said 'okay'
before you two got to the room, he was making jokes about how you should just sleep in his bed
he opens the door for you to look around, clearly pleased with his choice
you step into the room and immediately freeze. one bed.
"are you kidding me? what is this? you didn't think to ask for two beds?"
"huh? wait what... oh damn. that's crazy. I definitely asked for two, must've been an accident."
"an accident?!"
he just grins and flops onto the bed, spreading out like he owns it
"well, i guess that means we have to cuddle now, huh?"
dumbfounded, you threaten to sleep on the floor but he pouts dramatically until you give in.
when the lights go off, he's quiet for a bit until you feel a shift behind you
"you cold?" he says in a way where it almost sounds like he's trying to make you believe you are
"denki-"
before you can answer he throws an arm around you and shushes you, mumbling your name sleepily
"shh y/n, we can talk about how stupid this is in the morning, for now, this is okay. please?"
PICK UP LINES | SMAU
ೃ⁀➷ denki, monoma, shinso, midoriya, bakugo, todoroki
- i still have my finished my shinso & bakugou fic so gonna upload all my SMAUs heh.
Bakugou who just loves to look at you when you’re getting ready, it’s like he’s in a trance. As your putting on your clothes, doing your hair and makeup his eyes will never leave your figure till you’re done. He likes to get ready fast first so he can see you get ready. The first couple of times his eyes are on you, you get flustered and shy and tell him to stop looking at you while you’re getting ready. He’ll just grunt and mumble how he isn’t looking at you and looks away from you, but not even a minute later his eyes are drawn back you. As time passes you’re soon used to his eyes staring at you, now you love it and get giddy when he looks at you. Making getting ready feel intimate and special. He will never get sick and tired watching lovely you get ready.
You ever just… yell about #todoroki family??
⋆˙⟡ — FOUR TIMES MUALANI SUSPECTED SOMETHING WAS GOING ON (AND ONE TIME SHE WAS RIGHT)
pairing: kinich x reader
cw: no pronouns mentioned. ajaw is in a vacation. slight but not slight pda. mualani overreacting but she is a sweet. best friends trio. pyro vision reader mentioned. not beta-read.
reblogs and comments are appreciated ♡
Mualani knew Kinich and you were friends—close best friends, just like you two were with her—but lately, she couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.
It started with little things, almost too subtle to be noticeable but somehow it didn’t escape from her perception. Things like how Kinich, ever the quiet guy, had begun lingering a little too long when he talked to you, or how you’d run all your way to the Scions of the Canopy's village just to welcome him back after a mission.
At first, she didn’t pay too much attention thinking you guys were just being more affectionative and caring to each other. However, as time passed by, it has been shown to be more than a mutual friendly appreciation and certainly beyond a mere coincidence.
I.
The first time Mualani noticed something different was in an early morning by the coast, watching the waves curl and crash. She often started her day stretching at the shore and riding the first waves of dawn. But this time, as she rounded a cliff, she spotted Kinich and you sitting on a rock overlooking the sea. The two of you were close enough that your arms brushed every time the wind picked up.
Kinich’s usual stern expression was softer than usual. Mualani squinted at you suspiciously. Were you... holding hands?
She jogged closer, but just as she got near enough to say something, Kinich quickly stood up, putting a considerable distance between you and himself. “You're up early,” he said, his voice in its usual calm.
You smiled warmly. “Hey girl! How are the waves? We were just discussing about it.”
Mualani tilted her head, narrowing her eyes. “You were? Really?”
You let out a light and confusing laugh, tucking a loose strand of hair behind your ear. “Of course.”
She didn’t quite buy it, but you didn’t give her any reason to push further. “Well, the waves are good today! You guys joining?”
Kinich only gave her a polite headshaking, while you nodded smiling. Maybe she was imagining things.
II.
Except she wasn’t.
A few days later, you were hanging out by Tequemecan Valley' canyons with Kinich standing quietly while you and Mualani chatted. However, every time she glanced toward him, Kinich seemed to be watching you a little too intently. It wasn’t the usual hunter’s focus; it was softer, caring, almost like... adoring.
The girl squinted, pretending to be interested in some flowers nearby while keeping an eye on you two. You didn’t seem to notice anything, or if did, you didn’t mind. You just kept talking, your laughter filling the air.
When Mualani caught Kinich staring again, she couldn’t help but ask, “Kinich, you okay? You’ve been zoning out all day.”
He blinked, his neutral mask slipping back into place. “I’m fine.”
“He’s just tired from all the training,” you teased, winking at him.
Mualani raised an eyebrow, astonished by the scene before her eyes. Something was definitely going on.
III.
The third time came on a day when Mualani was guiding a group of Sumeru’s travelers near the springs when she spotted you and Kinich again, standing by the water. As she approached, she saw Kinich leaning down to whisper something to you, his lips close to your ear. You giggled softly in response.
Wait a minute... Kinich never whispers to anyone. Much less in such an intimate way and even less to make someone laugh. Mualani's instincts flared up immediately. What was he saying? And why did you look so happy about it?
She cleared her throat loudly as she walked up. “Hey. What are you two whispering about?”
Kinich straightened up quickly, crossing his arms. “Nothing important.”
You smiled at her, but there was a glimmer in your eyes that made the girl even more suspicious. “Just a silly joke,” you said lightly.
A joke, huh? Mualani filed it away in her mind. This time she was very determined to figure out what was going on between you two.
IV.
It was late afternoon, and Mualani had just finished surfing when she saw you two by the waterside. Kinich and you stood close, so close as it has strangely been, and for a brief moment, she could have sworn Kinich was about to lean in and kiss you.
She froze, watching from a distance as you smiled up at him, your palm softly pushing his chest away. Were you two really about to kiss? It couldn’t be just her angle view. Could it be?
But just as quickly as it happened, Kinich stepped back, his usual stoic demeanor falling back into place. You turned and waved at her, your smile as bright as ever.
“Lani. Hey! How was the surf?” you called out.
Mualani, still in shock, shook her head. “Uh... good. Really good.”
She stared at you both for a moment longer, convinced she’d almost witnessed something, but there was no proof. Again.
V.
In the several days that followed, Mualani continued to witness that strangeness that kept repeating itself every time you thought she wasn’t around, creating a certain tension between her and you and Kinich—although she doubted that you had noticed any difference, treating her as you always did from the beginning.
Even if it relieved her to know that nothing had changed in your friendship, the surfer couldn't help but feel upset too. Was it that bad if she found out? Didn't you trust her the same way she trusted you? She wanted to be able to release all of her thoughts and ask you if maybe there was something in your bond that was bothering you. But she didn't. And so, things remained the same.
That was a quiet evening, and the moon hung low over the mountains. Mualani had been taking a stroll, enjoying the peaceful night, when she stumbled upon you.
This time, though, there was no mistaking it—Kinich and you stood together under some trees, locked in a slow, deep kiss.
The girl’s cheeks burned as red as the pyro vision you hold so dear closely, eyes widely opening and heart skipping a beat. She gasped, louder than she intended, and both of you quickly turned toward her. You blinked twice before smiling stiffly, even daring to look a bit embarrassed, while Kinich gave her a calm look, his hands still resting on your waist.
“You two!” She exclaimed shaking her head, “I can’t believe you didn’t tell me earlier! I mean, I knew something was up, but really?”
You bit your lip while Kinich just blinked at her, slightly starting to look more guilty as well.
“We didn’t mean to keep it from you for long,” you said as you stepped out of Kinich’s arms and reached for her hand. “We were just... taking our time.”
Mualani arched an eyebrow. “Taking your time? You two were being so weird and annoying with all those suspicious interactions for weeks now! I’m supposed to be your best friend!”
Kinich rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly, clearly uncomfortable with the attention. “We wanted to keep it quiet,” he said, his voice low. “At first, anyway.”
Mualani softened, her fake scold melting away into genuine affection. “Still, I would’ve loved to know sooner,” she said, her tone gentler now. “You know me better than anyone else. You know I would never judge you,” she sighed as she watches the sorrow on your face. “Nevertheless, I’m really happy for you both. Really am.”
You beamed and even Kinich’s usual stoic expression seemed to relax slightly.
Mualani continued, her voice full of warmth. “I’ve always known you two had something special. And now that I know for sure, you better believe I’m fully on board with this!” She shot Kinich a playful look. “Just make sure you treat (Y/N) right, okay?”
Kinich nodded, his eyes softening as he glanced at you. “I will.”
You squeezed Mualani’s hand, your eyes sparkling with gratitude and pure happiness. “Thank you, Lani. Your support means a lot to us.”
Mualani grinned, pulling you both into a tight hug. “Just don’t keep secrets from me again, alright? I’m always here for you two.”
You all laughed but shared a quick but sweet bond moment, the atmosphere light and easy. And somehow, Mualani couldn’t help but feel like everything had fallen into place just the way it was meant to.
“But just for your information. If the day comes of you get engaged and don’t tell me immediately, I’ll crash the proposal myself, make a huge scene, and tell everyone how long I’ve had to put up with your not so secret glances and not so subtle hand-holding. Trust me, it won’t be pretty!”

I’M TIRED OF SMUT, I WANT TOOTH ACHING FLUFF AND HEART SHATTERING ANGST.
You look up from your book to see your husband standing over the bassinet with his arms crossed, his brow raising as he looks down inside of it with a tiny scowl. He stays like that for about a minute. You sit up in your shared bed, then call out to him. “Ryo.”
“Hm.” He doesn’t look up.
“May I ask what you are doing?”
“The little brat is staring,” Sukuna says matter-of-factly. “I am simply staring at her in return.”
Inside of the bassinet, your baby daughter coos. Her scarlet eyes—exactly like her father’s—glitter with interest. You hear her giggle, and you scoff lightly and return your gaze to your book. “She thinks you’re playing a game.”
“I am doing no such thing.”
You flip a page. “Put a hand over your face for a few seconds.” He doesn’t respond, but you know he listens. “M’kay, now lift.” There’s silence for a few seconds, then your daughter bursts into a fit of giggles.
Sukuna rolls his eyes. “I do not understand what is so entertaining about that.” When you look up again, you see that he’s covering his face again, then revealing himself to get the same reaction from the baby.
“It’s called peek-a-boo. It’s a game most babies love to play.”
The little princess babbles as she lifts her arms up, and Sukuna tilts his head. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
You snicker. “One: You’ll figure out what she’s saying the more you talk with her. Two: She wants you to pick her up.”
He sighs dramatically, then reaches into the bassinet to pick up the small girl. Though she has her father’s eyes, she has your hair, the shape of your nose, and your ears. She also has your fearlessness, because she smiles directly in the face of the king of curses. Now at his eye level, she reaches her arms towards him excitedly. “What is it now, you brat? I’m already carrying you.”
He looks over at you in question, and your smile grows. “She wants to touch your face,” you say.
“Why?”
“Because she’s a baby, and she’s curious.”
Sukuna pulls her closer, and once in range, his daughter lays her tiny hands against his marked face. She giggles more, and you can see his eyes soften. “Hmph. You have your mother’s smile.”
— — — —
The next morning, you walk into the kitchen where you hear Sukuna speaking with someone. When he turns to the side, you see your daughter nestled in the crook of one of his muscular arms, staring up at him as he concluded whatever story he was telling her.
“...At the end of the battle, only I remained. Victory was mine.”
The baby babbles excitedly, and Sukuna scoffs. “Ha, you will do no such thing. How do you expect to join me in battle when you aren’t even a year old, brat?”
Her face scrunches in what looks like annoyance, and she repeats to him what he taught her the night before. “Hmph.”
You burst into laughter, and Sukuna raises a brow at the little girl in his arms. “Great. Your mother’s smile, and her attitude.”
