any friends with benefits turned lovers fanfics? i have a mighty need
Anonymous said:So after seeing an angsty fanart where bkdk were friends with benefits, I was wondering if there were any good fics with a similar plot out there! So in which they are friends/rivals with benefits but this all backfires when one of them realizes he’s actually in love. Thanks!
Here’s a mini-list! I tried my best to filter out the fwb that didn’t end in romance or at least rom feels. Some are still in progress though, so they may not have moved into love territory yet!

Mechanical Bull by warschach( E | 27,573 | 1/1 )
Katsuki has a track record of bad choices, it’s a condition, but Izuku might be the one choice that’s right.
Procrastination by capncapnk( E | 5,458 | 1/1 )
But it is still surprising to see his more-than-friend-but-also-lover-he-guesses in his office seeking attention though Izuku already turned him down.
Usually he’ll get a text of ‘wyd?’ followed by a time and place if Izuku responds with a confirmation, and silence if he’s busy.
Or slammed into the wall in the agency’s shower for a quickie if no one was around, which despite his anxiety, he often acquiesces to.
There was also the time at the annual Pro Hero Gala that Katsuki discovered the bathrooms had their own individual stalls with thick walls that reached the ceiling and shoved him into one, to which he definitely protested because he was not fucking in a public bathroom. ‘Germs, Kacchan’, was his reason, and of course Katsuki made sure to make fun of him and his ‘germaphobia’ for a solid month after that.
Bell Pepper by ticklishivories( E | 7,059 | 1/1 )
Midoriya knew they wouldn’t talk about it. He was right. But he never thought it’d happen again.
The Benefits Between Us by dat_heichou( E | 37,699+ | 5/? )
It was never meant to be a serious suggestion. But of course, Deku has always been someone to rise up to Katsuki’s challenges. It’s both his best and worst feature, after all.
In which the Wonder Duo agrees to release the stress of being pro-heroes together and discover that sometimes being friends-with-benefits can mean being better friends.
you’re prettier with your mouth shut by capncapnk( E | 3,614 | 1/1 )
He hates how sensitive he is, how he arches up into the touch, how nice it is for Deku to keep running his mouth with whatever sappy, syrupy bullshit comes to his mind, even if he’d rather die than admit he likes this vanilla shit Deku has to offer.

In which Deku has a thing for Bakugou’s hands and Bakugou has a thing for nice words
stuck in the sun by bombshellbrunette( E | 21,486+ | 6/? )
Bakugou Katsuki has had his life planned out since he was four years old, and activated his Quirk for the first time. Those plans include attending Yuuei, becoming the number one hero in the world, and being an Alpha. They very much do not include future dealings with Midoriya Izuku, if he can fucking help it.
(He can’t help it, and, inevitably, things don’t go according to plan. Fucking figures.)
[On Hiatus] Knock Me Out by guess ill die (richkid_asshole)( E | 3,664+ | 2/? )
No, he knew this feeling. This awful, hollowed-out feeling in his stomach, like he was in freefall. This wasn’t that ravenous desire he’d felt during the concert.
This was a crush.

Sequel to Sucker Punch
SeriesPart 2 of Impulse Control
like you, unlike you by ruche( T | 5,582 | 1/1 )
“No, what,” Izuku laughs nervously, dismissively, to a chorus of boo’s. “I can’t give Kacchan chocolates, you guys. No way. He’ll get mad.”
It’s Katsuki, not love, that makes Izuku do stupid things.
[Underage]
an after school special by Birdschach, WattStalf( E | 2,993 | 1/1 )
AKA Bakugo is still not getting his shit together but they’re kind of getting somewhere this time.
[Underage]
the space between by ruche( T | 4,707+ | 1/? )
Deku shifted weight back and forth on his feet. “Is it alright if I text you while you’re away?”
“Hah? You already text me.”
Or: with the gift of technology, Izuku manages to bug Katsuki even when he’s in another city entirely and has more important things to do. But alright.
Just Friends, Right? by SpaceStorm23( T | 2,263+ | 1/? )
Deku thought he could keep this up, but he couldn’t it was killing him on the inside. He couldn’t lose Bakugou like this, in such a stupid way. Why couldn’t he just keep his feelings in check. [Graphic Depictions Of Violence]

Hello. I looked through the library first and still couldn't find the story. Bakugou is like nerdy and Izuku has a lot of tattoos and piercings and a stoner. The story is really good and I'm sad I can't find it again. I do believe it was a WIP and rated E. Hope that helps. I love the account btw. Thank you
Hi! I believe this is it.

Bro I need to find a fic that I absolutely loved so in the fic deku calls kirishima late at night because he’s running away from his violent boyfriend after they got into a fight and kirishima takes him in to his college dorm I think where deku kinda falls in love with his roommate bakugou
Ooh! I’m a big fan of this fic too and am subscribed!

Dark Side of the Sun by Synnie ( T | 51,597 | 20/20 )
Staying up too late playing video games, Kirishima wasn’t expecting to get an urgent call begging for help. Next thing he knew, he was letting his classmate Izuku Midoriya take refuge in his apartment - without consulting his always angry roommate.
They sit there, in the darkness of the common room, about a few centimeters between them, but miles apart. Somehow, the quiet is companionable. More than it has been in many years. Katsuki knows he’s responsible for the rift between them, and he knows even more that it can’t only be Deku who attempts to mend it.
“Hey,” he says, after a while, and Deku turns to him in question, but Katsuki refuses to look his way. “Touch me again.”
(or: the kidnapping incident leaves bakugou traumatised about being touched on the back of his neck, and midoriya decides to take matters into his own hands)
As time went by, Izuku found it more and more difficult to reconcile his perceived quirklessness with the ever-growing permanence of his imaginary friend, Kacchan. This boy he’d created, whose very existence was designed to balance out his own shortcomings — he couldn’t always see him. Hear him. Feel him.
Kacchan, this boy whom Izuku made as an extension of himself — he wasn’t always real.
(Submitter’s Note: This story isn’t finished yet, but the writing is so captivating. The idea itself is so unique, and with each consecutive chapter, I am amazed by the worldbuilding and the intricacies of Midoriya’s quirk in this universe. It’s really cool, and everyone should give it a chance! )

springtime of youth by claimedbydaryl
( E | 25,592 | 6/6 )
Now, Katsuki was capable of at least acknowledging that Izuku was his friend, but Izuku doesn’t think Katsuki knows that their rekindled relationship would entail things like talking, and almost-dates, and unsaid feelings.
(Or, the five times Izuku knew he would never forget the innocent sweetness of their childhood friendship despite all that had happened, and the one time Katsuki realised he had not forgotten it too).
For Want of Izuku’s Toe Joint by Talavin
( G | 103,109+ | 20/? )
When he was four years old, the doctor showed Izuku and his mother the x-ray of the boy’s foot. Since he only had one joint in his pinky toe, the doctor explained, there was a very high chance his quirk would manifest eventually. Year after year passed without any sign of it though, leaving Izuku to wonder if he could become a hero even without a quirk. Nevertheless, Izuku does possess a subtle, but extremely powerful ability - the kind that could make him the greatest hero of all time.
Hi! I love the effort you’re putting in here, thank you so much! So I’m trying to find a fic where Katsuki becomes a pro hero, but Izuku never gets OFA and instead he becomes a vigilante. He’s trying to stop a villain when Katsuki catches him thinking HE’S the villain, and when they both fight her (the actual villain) Izuku gets hurt and hides in her apartment to patch up his wounds. I hope this is specific enough because I’m dying not being able to remember who wrote it
Hello! I’m 90% sure you’re talking about the fic below!

[Deleted] the life cycle of a star by katsudeku
Izuku Midoriya is a vigilante, damned by society and barred from a career in heroism. With eyes painted in shades of ferocity and scarred hands that clutch the jagged edges of his heart, he makes a life for himself between good and bad, right and wrong, the murky depths of gray between black and white. He’s the kindest act that was never done, the best thing that could have happened.
But it doesn’t take long for hero prodigy Katsuki Bakugou to put his life in a spiral, with eyes once bright enough to ravage corneas and hearts alike. He’s an explosion in stasis with a quarantined supernova for a heart, and Izuku can’t help but fall into his orbit.
Between bloodied knuckles and unspoken words their lives intertwine in the best and worst possible ways, but some things are still meant to be.
