I think it’s really funny that everyone thinks bakugo would smell like caramel. that boy is SWEATY and would smell like straight onions. like especially after getting home from a mission/patrol he would REAK 🥹🥹
I also think that he would be very insecure about it and whenever he isn’t working he wears like secret clinical and nice colognes and stuff
STRAIGHT ONIONS IS EVISCERATING ME 😭
pure nitroglycerin is odorless, but it tastes sweet. so that burnt sugar / caramel smell comes from when it detonates, which is where the headcanon comes from
tbh idk how to feel ab it cuz he’s said to sweat a nitroglycerin-like substance, not nitroglycerin explicitly, so who knows the chemical properties of his sweat (i can’t believe this is a sentence im typing rn)
i feel like he’d smell smoky and kinda like gunpowder because of all those explosions…
and since he’s japanese he might have that gene that makes u not smell at all or as much when u sweat tbh 💔
BUT ON WHAT U SAID thats soo cute aw
i like the idea of bakugou realizing he can be insecure when he’s potentially interested in someone. LEMME EXPLAIN
i feel like a lot of his self esteem comes from his quirk, so he doesn’t really i consider the effects of it (sweating, smell, whatever) to be bad or something to be insecure about because they’re tied to his power and that’s what makes him strong and able to be the best in the field yknow
but i think when plucked out of that battle and hero mindset and put into ‘normal’ situations, that’s when he becomes aware of how much he sweats or how that could be a bad thing in this new context
i like to think that his hands get the most sweaty bc that’s where his explosions come from for the most part and they get sweatier when he’s nervous or flustered, so in the beginning of a relationship, he’s especially averse hand holding in particular because of that
def tried to work up the courage a few times and wipes his palms on his thigh before he does each time but he lowk chickens out and plays it off like he never tried in the first place LMAO
he gets over it tho cuz OBVIOUSLY a good partner would not really care ❤️🩹❤️🩹
