screaming at how opposite these fight club scenarios are depending on the ship
like...it’s bakugou who’s been eyeing this goofy lanky unassuming but strong ass dude for weeks. he’s always smiling and he gets beat within an inch of his life but he WINS, almost always, and even when he loses it’s still there. the smile. bakugou wants to wipe it off his face
but then it’s med student/intern todoroki, who sees this beaten, bruised, yet still wildly attractive man stumble out of an alleyway on his way home late at night and this is how people die in movies but he’s a med student, he’s obligated to help and this guy looks like hell
both of these are so...i’m finna start barking
imagine sero absolutely whooping bakugou’s ass the first time they match up
imagine todoroki thinking sero is seconds from death and his apartment is only a short walk away so he prays he’s not patching up a murderer in his bathroom
*ariana voice* can u...imagiiine a world like that
everything about bakugou and sero’s first real introduction is fiery. it’s muggy and there’s blood on the floor and they’re both bruised to hell but bakugou calls him out. challenges him. sero smiles, easy. accepts. wipes the floor w bakugou’s dumbass
but todoroki’s is the total opposite. the doctor-to-be in him is going haywire, he’s in the middle of the sidewalk pressing fingers to sero’s chest and face. he’s trying to talk to him, get a name, something but sero’s ears are filled with cotton. he smiles at him w bloody teeth
it honest to god should not be as attractive as it is. now look at todoroki, a blushing mess
i cannot stop oscillating between the 2 scenarios...they both are so.....sdfyhjuhj
i’m still on this y’all. listen this is so funny i just thought about the fact that bakugou has prolly never in his life had somebody embarrass him like this. not only is this fucker attractive up close but he’s strong?? stronger than him??? oh bitch. bakugou is RATTLED
sero helps him up afterward and he’s tryna be friendly and nearly gets his head bitten off. bakugou has to get his shit and leave before he can open his mouth and say something ridiculous bc fuck this dude and his muscles and his charm. bye. he doesn’t have to deal w this
but then in my other hand it’s todoroki who just barely manages to get this guy through the door & into his bathroom. sero is dizzy as hell, no idea who this person is or where he’s been taken but damn this a nice ass apartment. and a nice ass bathroom. ppl really live like this?
todoroki is trying to be strictly professional here but not only is sero flirting with him, voice hoarse and eyes prettily unfocused, but todoroki knows he’s bruised under his shirt so he has to get it off and aw damn. the physique. todoroki is like
listen to me y’all. listen to me. i literally can’t pick between these
bakugou the next 8 times he sees sero, literally day after day: i wanna fight lets go
sero: how many times do i have to teach you this lesson old man
sero, waking up on todoroki’s couch nicely bandaged but sore as fuck: dude i’m so sorry about the intrusion! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😫" title="Müdes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Müdes Gesicht">
todoroki, staring at his bare chest from the kitchen: it was nothing
sero & bakugou just agitate each other and then fight. they don’t know each other’s real names, never see each other outside of beating the absolute shit out of each other. this is exclusively antagonistic (sike. obviously). bakugou thinks it’s serious and sero thinks it’s funny
by the time sero wakes up in todoroki’s apartment he’s late for his day job. he barely has enough time to thank him and leave a stack of bills before he runs out. in hindsight he wasn’t thinking bc todoroki CLEARLY has more money than him but like,, what’s the etiquette here
todoroki’s kinda bummed & a little scandalized. but literally the same night they run into each other again. same alleyway, same time. sero is much more lucid, smiles when he recognizes him. todoroki connects some dots in his head and realizes this guy might b a drug dealer
in either of these, at the club or in front of the alley, sero gives the same blood stained smile and says, ā€œi don’t think i ever caught your name.ā€ the responses are wildly different
bakugou straight up feels threatened. like dude no u did not just make me BLUSH get the fuck out of here! ā€œfuck off, i didn’t throw it to you!ā€ he’s growling and baring his teeth. ā€œwell mine’s sero,ā€ he raises a split brow, ā€œwe should get to know each other.ā€
ā€œshouto. todoroki shouto.ā€ todoroki is more than happy to know this mans name. absolutely no concept of coming off as thirsty bc he’s sure he’s picking up what’s being thrown down here and he’d like to see that chest again one of these days. sero’s enamored. ā€œhanta. sero hanta.ā€
SOMEBODY COME LOOK AT THIS....... https://twitter.com/anpanmeg/status/1308999075522654209">https://twitter.com/anpanmeg/...
the way that meg is galaxy brained. now all i can see is the first meetings happening on the same night
a few weeks go by, sero spends his days with todoroki and his nights kicking bakugou’s ass. he’d actually been avoiding the infamous alleyway so he wouldn’t see him like that. then bakugou starts riding out with him when the club closes, and it turns out they live near each other
he and bakugou get roughed the fuck up one night tho, scrappy newcomers. doing too much. they still won but damn are they sore. and of course as soon as they step out of /that/ alley todoroki’s there in his scrubs looking dead tired. sero lights up when he sees him regardless
bakugou is kinda pissed cus like..who the hell is this clown any why are they so touchy? and who the fuck is hanta? but before he can open his mouth sero is introducing them, voice smooth and charm on 100 (when is it ever not?) with that stupid (gorgeous) smile in place
todoroki is unimpressed. he really never asked what led to hanta getting so beaten up, even when they started spending more time together when the sun was up, but he had kinda run w the drug dealer theory. so far this checked out. he reaches for a handshake and gets a sneer back.
ok so fuck whoever this guy is. todoroki’s eyes narrow, bakugou’s face scrunches up further. boy does sero know a fight brewing when he sees one. ā€œi hate to ask, but do you mind patching me up?ā€ the question makes shouto blink up at him, bakugou momentarily forgotten. ā€œJUST you.ā€
shouto directs a pointed glare at bakugou, and it’s all sero can do to step in between them after bakugou spits out a ā€œfuck you, candy cane.ā€ he heaves a deep spiritual sigh, bc it’s nearing midnight in the fall. he’s cold, his ribs hurt, the blood under his nose is congealing.
god he just wants to go to bed. he’s had enough fighting for one night. he squeezes shouto’s shoulder, ā€œthank you,ā€ and smiles as sweet as he can. shouto must be satisfied bc he smiles back, tiny & soft, and turns in the direction of his apartment. bakugou follows them, grumbling
sero’s certain he’s got some type of attitude now but whatever. he’s following them and he’s quiet, that’s enough. he’s sure if he put a lil extra work in he could get shouto to help bandage him up too. if he can get bakugou to keep his damn mouth shut. he’ll see what he can do
ight i’m back on bs. so imagine this: they make it back to todoroki’s apartment and it’s just bakugou standing angrily (awkwardly) in the living room why sero makes himself comfortable in the kitchen. sero’s like ā€œdude relax he doesn’t biteā€ and bakugou, obviously, is offended
ā€œhah? you think i’m scared of that son of a bitch? the fuck-ā€œ sero almost smashes his head against the counter bc ofc, of /course/ bakugou would take offense to that. he’s about to tell him to shut up, but todoroki beats him to the punch by throwing a towel at his face. HARD.
ā€œthis is a nice building and it’s late. shut. up.ā€ both sero and bakugou are just staring, slack jawed. sero starts to smile at bakugou’s obvious distress. todoroki must not notice, bc he’s making his way to sero and taking note of his injuries before heading back to the bathroom
bakugou is on the verge of blowing a gasket and before he can speak sero is over the counter with a hand over his mouth. ā€œok seriously, don’t yell in here again. this really is a nice building, i’ve met his neighbors. i promise he’s a nice person. just calm down.ā€ and bakugou...
he’s gone from angry to flustered & back to angry bc sero has at least 4 inches on him & they’ve never been this close to each other & not getting ready to kick each other’s ass. he can really focus on him when he’s this close, how even with his face all bruised he’s still pretty
the hand on his mouth is warm and bakugou has a death grip on the towel he tore off his face moments earlier and this shit is ridiculous. truly ridiculous. so he does what any sane, rational person would do, and bites the shit out of sero’s hand. sero yelps because what the fuck?
he snatches his hand back, brows furrowed in not quite anger but exasperation. ā€œwhat the hell is your problem? are you a fucking animal?ā€ he whisper screams. ā€œfuck off, don’t touch me!ā€ bakugou whisper screams back, & why the fuck are they whispering? ā€œi touch you all the time-ā€œ
ā€œhanta? do you still need me?ā€ todoroki’s voice rings out. bakugou scowls at how quickly sero turns from him to smile in half & half’s direction. and who the FUCK is hanta? ā€œyeah, i do. be there in a sec.ā€ sero says, honey sweet. todoroki nods, disappears back into the bathroom.
