that very specific flavor of catharsis i crave
hello yes i took one look at midoryia re bakugo and when "oh shit same trauma" and so now i'm hoarding these fics. i have not yet asked my therapist but i'm sure this is a fine way of coping.
also i've never set up a collection before so idk what i'm doing.
edit: apparently creators have to approve their stuff to be added? if you got multiple notifs from me i'm so sorry omg

Summary
Over the course of one week, Midoriya Izuku sees his childhood friend turned bully face consequences for his actions, gets appreciated for his skills, acquires a boyfriend that sits right in front of him, realizes that his grumpy homeroom teacher is actually on his side, and tells Aizawa Shouta the truth about One for All.
All of that information, however? It's happening in the background. Follow our hero: Aizawa Shouta aka Eraserhead. Over the course of the same week, Aizawa looks into his Problem Child and his many contradictions in order to not see Midoriya Izuku and Bakugou Katsuki paired together for their upcoming final exam.
During this time, Aizawa learns things he should have known from the start, talks to a lot of people, drinks so much hot chocolate, loves his husband, feeds his cat, gets a shocking six hours of sleep, reflects on his past, and learns the truth about a legend passed through underground heroics for decades.

Summary
Shouta gripped the phone tight enough to make the phone case groan. “So it’s true. Midoriya was Quirkless.”
“Until soon before the entrance exam,” Nedzu confirmed. “That’s not relevant now, though, because—“
“Relevant?” Shouta hissed. “Midoriya is barely functional, socially. He doesn’t trust any adult. He thinks the whole world hates him. He apologizes for everything except breaking the law, and I’m sure I can trace every single one of those things back to his Quirklessness. You call that irrelevant?”
Aizawa visits Aldera Junior High and finds out some disturbing truths.

Summary
Izuku doesn't ever tell anybody about Bakugou's bullying. That silence shapes both of their futures and the redemption arc set up for Bakugou in canon. So here's a closer look at that silence, eventually breaking it, and Izuku's own frustration with it.
(Also there's parallels with Todoroki and Endeavour, #quality)
