on the timeline where izuku midoriya swan dives off a rooftop, katsuki's punishment came when he died as a hero. his soul became stuck as a grim reaper, guiding souls to heaven or hell despite being unable to go there himself.
he guides civilians, criminals, heroes, and villains to where they need to go.
then he meets izuku again. he doesn't look entirely the same but katsuki knows the soul in front of him was the boy who once followed his back.
then he meets izuku again. he doesn't look entirely the same but katsuki knows the soul in front of him was the boy who once followed his back.
izuku doesn't remember him. katsuki doesn't know why he's disappointed.
he knows better than anyone that when a soul reincarnates, their past memories becomes buried.
he knows better than anyone that when a soul reincarnates, their past memories becomes buried.
despite that, he feels a throb on his chest when izuku just looked at him and smile. something deku never did anymore when katsuki refused to take his hand.
"am i going to heaven, mr. grim reaper?"
he does.
"am i going to heaven, mr. grim reaper?"
he does.
(katsuki wonders for a brief moment if deku asked the same thing when he died.)
that's when katsuki starts to watch over deku's reincarnation. he doesn't know why exactly but for some reason he feels like watching over him is part of his punishment—his atonement.
he watches izuku be reborn as quirkless and become a successful support engineer.
he watches izuku inherits a powerful quirk and become a hero, now that there was no kacchan to stop him.
he watches izuku become successful with his coffee shop, become a famous movie actor,

he watches izuku become successful with his coffee shop, become a famous movie actor,
become a best-selling mangaka, become a doctor that found a cure to an incurable disease, become something more than deku could have ever been because kacchan existed.
katsuki watches them all.
"am i going to heaven, mr. grim reaper?"
and katsuki guides them all.
katsuki watches them all.
"am i going to heaven, mr. grim reaper?"
and katsuki guides them all.
until one day, something broke. as if there was a glitch in a system. katsuki watches, unable to do anything, as izuku's life spirals down.
izuku becomes a villain and die as one.
stands before him as one.
izuku becomes a villain and die as one.
stands before him as one.
"am i going to hell... kacchan?"
