Denki with the song do i wanna know or why’d you only call me when your high by arctic monkeys 🫣🫣
okay don't jump me, but i love hozier's cover of "do i wanna know?" so excuse my creative liberty here when i say
⋆☀︎。denki will always crawl back to you.
there were many moments in time where denki kaminari felt indescribable overwhelm. how could he carry so much unadulterated love for you, it was hard to fathom. at the mere age of twenty four, scarily determined he was that you were the only woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.
what did he do in his past life to deserve the glowing hope that fit so perfectly in his arms? a smile that could keep him going for weeks and weeks, that sweet voice that replayed in his mind like an earworm of his favorite song. when you catch him staring while you were deep in explaining away your day, you suddenly feel shy to continue on. he implores you to ignore him, a shake of head and "keep going, my love". your sole existence was proof enough for him to find reasons to be better every morning he woke up.
sometimes he feels like it was highly uncharacteristic, the way he's enamored. most of his friends would suggest he doesn't take many things in life seriously. education was a means to an end, his job solely to pay rent and feed himself. his orbit of aspiration shifted entirely when you entered. he read about things you talked to him about, studying constellations and planetary systems because you loved knowing more of the unknown. secretly hoping one day he'd find your name written in the stars. he caught himself bookmarking recipes you loved, opting for better quality ingredients when he went grocery shopping. hell, he opened a savings account for your wedding day and future home because he saw all your pinterest boards and how much you dreamed of a color-filled future. his tune followed the beat of your heart.
he wondered if the sheer magnitude of it would scare you. that one day, you would finally notice just how deeply he had rooted himself into every corner of your life and feel suffocated by the weight. denki knew his own nature—too loud, usually unserious and preferring using humor to get through important situations. the two of you did have fights here and there, painful ones. every one of your tears shed due to him are stained on his soul. he would rather stumble over himself learning how to love you properly than stand at distance pretending he was above it all. because perhaps to love someone that deeply was something worth being scared of, and persisting despite the fact.
if there was even the smallest chance that loving you with every fiber of his being meant keeping that sunshine in his world, then it was a risk he would take every single time.
does this make up for the 9k angst fic

You were laying down, mindlessly scrolling when you got the notification:
Denki: Missing you extra rnnnnnnnn!!! 😢🖤🖤
It’s 2 AM, why is he awake (you’re not surprised). You ignore it for a few minutes before finally opening the message, a screenshot of a tweet, which is a screenshot of messages, two eggs next too each other, looking like breasts, one of Denki’s favorite parts of you— potentially his favorite. He needs to be in bed not all horny. So like a good girlfriend, you scold him and make him go to sleep.
Y/n: Denki. Go to bed 😑
Denki: WHAT
Denki: WHY
Denki: BABY DID I MAKE YOU MAD??
Y/n: Not YET
Denki: Okkkkk I’ll go to bed :<
Y/n: Thank you sweet boy 🖤
Denki: I LOOOOOOOOOOVE you!!
Denki: GOODNIGHT BABYYYYYYY
Y/n: love you too baby. Gn 🖤
God, he’s so dumb. But you love him (unfortunately).

Meet cute but make it bloody?
contains: BLOOD, otherwise pure fluff, gn reader
After an hour in line, you finally reach the doors of the best haunted house in the city. Given the size of your group, you'd have to be split up. You offered to go in after and catch up to everyone. Ten minutes later, they let you through the doors.
It's creepy and well done, but not too scary yet. Maybe it's because you know it's meant to be this way, but you're just not as afraid of places like this as you were when you were a kid. Still, the nostalgia is nice.
You come into another room that looks like a toxic waste spill. Green goo glows on the floor with a path zigzagging through the middle. It's obvious where you're meant to walk.
As soon as you step forward, a zombie mannequin springs out from around the door. Instinctively, you pull your arm back, swing your weight into it, and hit the offending figure in the face.
“Yawwch, fuck!” it– he screams.
“Oh!” you exclaim, “I am so so sorry! Are you okay?”
Staggering back until he's leaning against the wall, he pulls off the mask. Much to your surprise, he's cute. Really cute.
He's also covered in blood.
“I am very sorry about your nose! Can I get you anything?” you glance around, trying to find anything to help him stop the bleeding, but everything you see is covered in glowing sludge.
“Uhm, no,” he says, looking up at you for the first time. “I'm fine. Great, actually.” He smiles as the blood trickles down his chin.
“It uh, it doesn't look like it. Really, I can go find something.”
“Nah, there's a first aid station. They'll help me out,” he says, still happy. You wonder if you gave him a concussion.
“At least let me walk you there, it's the least I can do.”
“Deal,” he smiles, sending butterflies through your chest.
You follow him through a few rooms. One is a crime scene, another is filled with brightly colored jars of fake body parts. He pushes through hidden doors you never would have guessed exist, leaving a trail of glowing green footprints. A few turns later, you pass through a door covered in fake cobwebs and you're in an undecorated back stairwell. He waits at the bottom step for you to walk alongside him.
“So, a first aid station. Does that mean they expect this sort of thing to happen?” you ask, trying to make conversation.
“You know,” he laughs, “I probably should have asked about that when I first started this job, huh?”
“How'd you end up working here anyways, it seems kind of fun. Minus the dangerous parts.” You notice that you're stepping in unison.
“I saw an ad on a flyer someone stapled to an electrical pole in the park. So, like any rational human, I pulled one of the numbers off and called.”
“That's… Official.”
“Yeah,” he grins, blood drying to his lips. “When I got a call back, I was like 50/50 on it being a job interview or getting my kidneys stolen. Imagine this place without the decorations, they probably could have left it that way and it would still be scary.”
Cute and funny, you think, you picked a good one to punch in the face. You cringe.
You arrive in a makeshift office, there's a desk on one side and a folding table and chairs on the other. An older woman with a lollipop stands as the two of you walk in.
“Kaminari,” she addresses him in a way that sounds like a greeting, question, and judgement all at once.
“I uh, an accident happened,” he points at his nose.
“Workplace injury?” she asks, gesturing towards the folding table. Before he sits, she already has gloves on. Sifting through the large box on the table, she finds what looks like disinfectant wipes and opens one.
“Which of this is…” she begins, gesturing at his costume. It's at this moment that you realize he's covered in fake blood too.
“Just what's on my face, I was wearing a mask,” he holds up the zombie mask like a decapitated head.
“Oh,” she sits up a little straighter, “oh dear.”
Reaching for another handful of the wipes, she gets to work cleaning the blood off of his face.
Your phone buzzes and suddenly you realize your friends are probably looking for you. The group chat is filled with questions about your location:
y/n where did you go???
you still alive?
Did one of the monsters get you?? 🧟🧟🧟
…and is he cute?
really though where are you?
You laugh at a few of them, replying:
yeah, he is cute 🧟
I kind of punched him in the face though
might have to buy him food or something to make up for it. I'll catch up later!
After more back and forth making sure you weren't actually kidnapped, you agree to come outside and prove you're alive soon. Then you turn back to Kaminari. His face is as clean as possible, minus a split lip.
“I am so sorry,” you gush again, “I didn't realize I hit your lip too! I thought I just got your nose.”
“Impressive, right?” he laughs, “it's not every day you meet someone who's cute and throws a decent punch.”
Heat creeps up your cheeks. After all of this, he's complimenting you for it?
“Flattery aside, I still want to make it up to you. Can I buy you dinner when you're off?”
“Yeah,” he answers quickly. “My manager sent me home for the night. I just have to change, give me twenty minutes?”
“Perfect, meet you by the exit doors?”
“See you soon,” he says before disappearing.
You remember some of the way back, at least you thought you did. In the end, you land yourself somewhere new that's filled with fake smoke. After passing through a hallway filled with hands trying to grab you into a room with clowns and a circus tent theme, you see the exit doors and leave to find your friends.
When you reunite with the group and tell them the full story, you find that most of them thought you were kidding earlier.
“Wait, you actually hit him?” one of your friends asks. “And he said yes to getting dinner with you after that?” adds another.
“Yes to both,” you smile awkwardly.
A few minutes later, you feel a tap on your shoulder. Your friends’ eyes grow bigger. “You weren't lying, he really is cute,” whispers one of them.
Turning, you find Kaminari in regular clothes: a white v-neck and black pants. He was a cute zombie, but this is even better. A bit of green makeup still tints the backs of his hands where he rushed to scrub it off. As soon as he sees you, his eyes light up. They're beautiful, you hadn't noticed earlier (probably too distracted by all the blood.)
“By the way, I'm y/n. You're Kaminari, right?”
“You can call me Denki.”
“Denki,” you repeat.
Your friends say rushed goodbyes before jumping in an oversized rideshare.
“So,” you start as the two of you walk down the street together. “Where do you want to go?”
“Hmm,” he exclaims dramatically, “I'm thinking lobster.”
“Great idea, but I'm not sure where we'll find seafood at midnight and I have twenty dollars in my pocket. Want to try again?”
“Ughh,” he sighs, “if I must. How about the first place we see with the open light still on?”
“Sounds perfect.”
He holds his arm out to link with yours, you accept. The two of you wander into the night, veering towards a large fast food sign.

he's actually so nervous when you first start dating it's unreal
but he's still really sweet
early on he will 100% be like "this random thing i saw at the store reminded me of you" or "i noticed you like this activity, so i learned to do it"
he's just a very thoughtful and attentive gift giver and date planner.
he LOVES physical touch so much!! he especially likes holding your hand and giving hugs all the time!
will get giddy when he remembers he's dating you
LOVES giving and receiving COMPLIMENTS!! definitely short circuits if you call him "handsome" or "pretty"
i feel like he'd want something matching. like pajamas, phone cases, socks, etc. just something small and silly to match with his partner!
honestly, he might even get matching earrings.
calls you "babe" exclusively. but will also call you "dude" and "bro" out of habit.
adding to the last one, he gets fake pouty if you call him "bro". he doesn't ACTUALLY care, but he just wants to be a little dramatic.
he likes laying on your chest when you cuddle sometimes. he also prefers being little spoon but has no problem being big spoon.
loves it when you help him with homework bc he gets to admire your intelligence
you will NOT catch this man turning down a makeout session no matter the circumstances (i mean unless it's literally a life or death scenario)
you guys will definitely have that one animated (kid) show that you guys watch together when you hang out while you play video games (minecraft???) together.
he will never ask you to watch a horror movie with him bc he knows he'll be the one crying and not able to sleep after.
loves when you send voice messages! he'll send them randomly just to get to hear you send them back.
has a playlist of all the songs he's caught you singing along to, or that you've mentioned you've liked, or that you've posted on your instagram and he plays it when he's on aux around you.
he would also propose the idea of having a shared spotify playlist and would only add songs he's already knew you liked.
after every phone call with you he audibly giggles bc he's so happy he just got to talk to you. it doesn't matter where he is or who he's with.
he tells all of the bakusquad about you!! it's a running joke that he just doesn't shut up about his partner.
hey so how do you think Denki Kamanari would deal with having a s/o who he first kisses with and he accidentally shocks them slightly, which instinctually gets s/o to activate their quirk on him. Instead of him apologising. S/o’s now apologising and checking he doesn’t need the hospital?
“Accidental Shock”
Denki kaminari x Gn!Reader -requested- (I didn’t know what quirk to put for reader but um.. yeah I tried!!)
“Okay, okay, yeah, so maybe I electrocuted you a tiny bit… but in my defense, you’re really pretty and I panic when pretty people get that close to my face. Wanna try again? I promise to keep the voltage under control this time. Probably.”
═══════ ═══════ ═══════
It was supposed to be soft. You were both a little flushed, a little quiet, sitting close after training. The sun was setting. His hand brushed yours. He looked at your lips. You leaned in. It was supposed to be cute. And it was… right up until your lips touched
ZAP
Not a big shock, but just enough to make your fingers twitch and your quirk instinctively fires back at him.
You both jump back at the same time. “AH CRAP, wait I didn’t mean to!!” You’re already rushing toward him. His hair’s sticking up worse than usual. He looks a little toasted. Eyes spinning a bit. “Denki, are you okay?! Did I hit you too hard?! Do you need to go to Recovery Girl?!” He just blinks. Then gives you a slow, dorky little smile. Like his brain rebooted and is still loading. “Worth it.”
He’s a little fried, but not dead. He waves off your panic. “No no, I’ve taken way worse! I think I actually saw the stars for a sec, but like, the romantic kind.” You’re still fussing, checking if he’s warm, if his pupils are okay. Meanwhile, he’s sitting there, dazed and grinning like a fool. “…You really okay though?”, “Yeah. But I won’t know until I get to kiss you again.” (He says it while his shirt is still smoking slightly.)
hey so how do you think Denki would deal with him having gone on a first date with his s/o, how would that go? and then later on, over text he apologises if he was awkward cuz he’s not normally that awkward and his s/o is like: I know you aren’t normally. it was kind of cute you acting that way for a change though.
“Nervous Laughter & Sparky Hands”
First Date;Denki Kaminari x Gn!reader -requested-
“I was probably weird, right? Like… too smiley, too much. I couldn’t help it though, everything you did made me feel like I was glowing from the inside out. I swear I’m not always that awkward, but with you… I kinda liked feeling that way. It meant it was real.”

Before the Date ⟢₊ ⊹
Denki is so hyped to go out with you he forgets how to be a normal person. Literally had his outfit laid out two days in advance. Asked every member of Class 1-A for advice “Should I wear something cool or something soft-cute? Do I even own soft-cute?”. Mina tried to style his hair. Sero dared him to bring a single daisy. He actually considered it.
He rehearsed how he’d greet you about 37 times in his mirror. And still ends up just smiling like a dope and saying, “Hey. You look really good. I mean,not that you don’t usually, I just, today it’s like extra. Like, woah. Sorry. Hi.” He laughs a little too hard after that. Immediately regrets it. But your smile softens everything.
▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰
The Date Itself ⟢₊ ⊹
You go somewhere lowkey, a quiet café tucked away from the usual UA chaos. Something soft. Something easy. Something Denki definitely thought through and still somehow gets nervous during. He taps his fingers on the table when he talks. Tries to make you laugh. Accidentally stutters when you compliment his outfit. Forgets what drink he ordered. Short-circuits when your hand brushes his under the table.
There’s a moment where the conversation dies out… but not in a bad way. He’s just looking at you. And it hits him all at once. “Holy shit I’m on a date with them.” That thought completely fries him for like 4 seconds.
▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰
After the Date ⟢₊ ⊹
He walks you home. No questions asked. Doesn’t care if it makes him late for the dorms bed time . Doesn’t care that he might get in trouble when he gets back. Just wants to be near you a little longer. When he finally says goodbye, it’s soft and a little shy: “Thanks for today. I had a really, really good time. You’re just… yeah. You’re amazing.” He waves, trips over the curb, then pretends it didn’t happen. You wait until he’s out of sight before you let yourself grin.
▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰
Later That Night ⟢₊ ⊹
11:13 PM (you two are messaging)
Human charger ⚡:

I just really like you and I got all flustered and stuff
I’m cooler when I’m not on dates

(He stares at the message for five full minutes before sending it. Nearly throws his phone across the room after.)

It was kind of cute seeing you like that.
Human charger ⚡:

Human charger ⚡:
