Your tags on my fic were so sweet! Thanks so much, dear â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸ Glad you liked it!
[Note for followers - see "L'heure bleue" on tumblr or ao3 on which I tagged " #I still actually think about this all the time #Iâve reread it like 8 times #if youâre comfortable w bkdk smut itâs. *chefs kiss* #so much to love. I could ramble for like 10 min on this"]
Aww thanks so much for writing it <3 I think this is an invitation to ramble about it for 10 minutes?
Ok so listen normally I'll copy-paste a few of my favorite clips and explain why I like them but I thought about doing it for this one and it's impossible because there's so many things that I'm in love with.
It includes lots of details that engage all five senses (the smell of smoke, the taste of bitter green tea and salty sweat, the steady drone of HVAC units, the feeling of sweat and humidity sticking to Izukuâs body, the way the early morning sky changes the colors of Kacchan/the walls/the world). Itâs so engaging, it really pulls you in.
It naturally fills the reader in on post-canon events and the shift in their relationship without distracting from what is happening currently in the story.
Thereâs a good fight scene. Easy to follow whatâs happening and who is where and Izuku makes full use of all his quirks which is always cool. And, uh. The easy-to-follow applies to the sex as well, which is not always the case in fic.
The whole sex scene is filled so full of emotion from start to finish and like, of course itâs hot, but like mostly itâs romantic and just full of so much feeling and thatâs what Iâm looking for in a bkdk fic.
Thereâs lots of internal thoughts and feelings and reflections that donât distract from the dialogue and actions and it makes the whole fic feel really full and complete and emotional.
Izuku is so needy, heâs been so thirsty for Katsuki for so long and it shows how much he really, really, really wants this. (âHe doesnât have the words to express what it is to want so much, so badly, but he does want. He wants everything all the time, over and over again. The possibility of satiation doesnât exist.â)
The fic isnât from Katsukiâs point of view, so itâs impossible to say what he truly thinks, and heâs not exactly forthcoming with his emotions. But the way he reacts is so... I donât know the right word, consistent, maybe. With his canon personality and with what youâd expect from someone whoâs fallen hard for Izuku. The point is that you can tell how he feels in the actions described.
Also I said I donât have a favorite clip but actually it might be this:Â
Kacchan remains still. Except for his fingers. Theyâre clenching and unclenching just slightly, like a cat when it purrs and kneads at the air as it dreams. Izuku unwraps his fingers and moves them a couple centimeters up so that heâs palm to palm with Kacchan, their fingers automatically intertwining.
Also
âI like you,â he whispers. âI like you.â And he begins to come. âI like you, I like you, I like you so much, Kacchan. Please, Kacchan, please.â
Thatâs so him. He really would. I love it so much. And Katsuki says itâs weird but you know he likes it too.Â
Anyway, once again, thanks for writing it. I hope to one day write as well as you do and I actually donât read a lot of fic but I think I should check out your other stuff for sure.
