Summary
Izuku dies on Christmas morning and charms the Grim Reaper into a deal: his life for his firstborn.
The problem, Katsuki quickly realizes, is that Izuku has zero prospects, zero game, and absolutely no interest in having kids anytime soon. If Katsuki wants to be free, he’ll have to help Izuku find love.
He just didn’t expect to fall in love with Izuku himself.

Summary
In America, Izuku is assigned a pen pal from Japan. Bakugou-san threatens him daily and curses all too often, but he answers Izuku’s questions and shows interest in his dreams. Oceans away in Musutafu, Katsuki enrolls in the mandatory English language course. His pen pal is a pain in his ass and asks way too many fucking questions.
They're supposed to be learning a new language. Instead, they discover why crushing on someone across the globe is not the best idea.

Summary
“Aw, that sounds horrible, Izuku. What a jerk!”

Summary
How Izuku has loved Katsuki over the years. A character and relationship study.
“You,” he says, but his voice comes out strange, thick. Katsuki clears his throat once, then continues: “You never said where you were going, nerd.”
He is seventeen years old, and he cannot make himself move. There on the precipice, his dreams dangle before him; he needs only to make that leap and that quirkless, fatherless boy will fall to the wayside for Pro Hero Deku to take his place.
But Izuku does not jump. He looks over his shoulder, and he waits. He is seventeen years old and in love, searching for the boy who was always supposed to be in front of him to find and to follow.

Summary
“You can ask questions later,” Katsuki says through his teeth, “Just play along and I’ll pay you, alright?”
The stranger tilts his head at him, bewildered, baffled. Somewhere past all the panic and the desperation, Katsuki realizes he’s beautiful. When he grins, Katsuki is disarmed, unraveled.
“You can write the check out to the children’s hospital,” he says. “Thanks!”
Fuck, Katsuki thinks as he lets the door open and takes a good look at the pink-cheeked, freckle-faced stranger he’s convinced to be his boyfriend for the night, I hate Christmas.
Katsuki realizes he’s at a singles party far too late. To escape, he asks a donation collector to be his boyfriend for the night.

he won’t tell you that he loves you, but he loves you by pointyhearts

Summary
character studies through the lens of katsuki and izuku's relationship.
“You’re in a car with a beautiful boy, and he won’t tell you that he loves you, but he loves you. And you feel like you’ve done something terrible, like robbed a liquor store, or swallowed pills, or shoveled yourself a grave in the dirt, and you’re tired. You’re in a car with a beautiful boy, and you’re trying not to tell him that you love him, and you’re trying to choke down the feeling, and you’re trembling, but he reaches over and he touches you, like a prayer for which no words exist, and you feel your heart taking root in your body, like you’ve discovered something you didn’t even have a name for.” — Richard Siken

Summary
Izuku Midoriya was a competitive cheerleader up until an injury to his hand made tumbling and stunting an impossibility. It's devastating to think that cheer could be out of his life for good—until a pair of enthusiastic classmates show up at Izuku's dorm room with a signup sheet for a new hockey cheerleading club. All that's left to do is learn how exactly hockey works...and try not to think too much about the prodigious freshman right wing, who's just about the most wonderful person Izuku's ever met.
Shouto Todoroki has eaten, slept, and breathed hockey his whole life. He's got a legacy to live up to with his pro-hockey old man, and he's no stranger to the scrutiny and expectations of his coaches and teammates. It's different now that he plays for UA, though. He's got a former pro coach who sees potential in him and teammates who might actually like him as a person. Then there's the cheerleading captain, who's kind and compassionate in a way Shouto's never known—and who won't rest until Shouto stops dismissing hockey as nothing more than his old man's game.
