It's Toki's 2nd week at UA when he sees a man hauling a lifeless body over his shoulder as he treks across campus. "Sempai, should we do something?" he asks hysterically, because what the fuck.

She squints, then shrugs. "Oh, it's just Bakugou and Midoriya. You'll get use to it."
Toki know those names. It's the first lesson he was taught by his RA at his freshman orientation: "Your campus life would be much easier if you stay clear of Bakugou and Midoriya." It was said with such gravitas that Toki almost rescind his enrollment right then and there.
Nobody can be that bad right with the way the rumor mill churns about these two? He'd tried to reason to himself before the fear can completely overtake him. It was something fun and stupid. A prank the seniors like to play on their kouhai just to give them a little scare.
But the first time he ever heard anything about the Danger Couple outside of his dorm were the murmurs of Midoriya getting drag out of class by the campus police for releasing the frogs meant for dissection that day in anatomy lab and Bakugou had to bail him out.
His classmates in his Freshman English comp class couldn't stop talking about it when pictures of Midoriya grinning cheekily as he was dragged out of the Health Science building in handcuffs by a weary campus officer made it way on to the college's social media page.
Toki didn't look. Didn't dare to because he came to UA with the promise of the best academics and athletics in the entire country, and not for this kind of shitshow. All he wanted was to graduate at the top of his class and in peace. Please. He doesn't have time for this.
Except two days after Midoriya got in trouble with the campus police, Bakugou got into some kind of an oral fight with his professor that they spent a good thirty minutes arguing in class while Bakugou made it clear he doesn't give a crap about art history but refuse to drop it.
The audacity and absurdity of the story spread around like wildfire across campus as more and more people retold it to their curious classmates, because apparently this was not the first or the last time Bakugou had went head to head with a professor and came out on top.
Toki didn't need to hear anything more about these two to know his RA's advice wasn't so much an advice as it was a very grave and serious warning not to be taken lightly. Especially now, when he is face with the two nightmares that has been haunting their elite campus.
Toki stares at his sempai incredulously and she grins, patting his shoulder as though that would offer any comfort to him.

"It's a Tuesday and Midoriya always stay late at the library to study so Bakugou have to come and drag him back to their dorm," she explains cheerfully.
Toki turns his head toward the scene unfolding before him, in the middle of the night and under the cloak of darkness, the blond man proceeds to ignore everything else and drags his partner in what is reminisce of a murder across their campus grounds like it's all normal.
Abruptly, the formerly lifeless body jerks up and lets out a whine as he struggles against the man's grip. Bakugou drops the body to the ground and walks away as Midoriya rolls around on the grass for a bit before dragging himself up and chases after Bakugou's departing figure.
Toki stares and stares, stupefied by what he just saw.

"Ah, yea," his sempai says, like the voice of someone who had long suffered. "Don't even try to make sense of it. This is the Bakugou and Midoriya's show. We're just lucky enough to be watch it live and not be part of it."
