    Summary

    One second they’re saying something stupid, the next they’re reading and highlighting quietly on their own, then the pen is rolling out of Izuku’s hand, his head falls back against the pillow, and he’s asleep.

    Katsuki just lets him sleep.

    It should piss him off. It does piss him off. Doesn’t it? He should’ve made them study downstairs in the common room and flicked bits of paper at him if he started to doze. He should flick paper at him right now. He should wake him up.

    He's not going to wake him up.

    Summary

    For some reason, Katsuki felt like the fading of One For All correlated with the fading of Izuku from the picture of his life. It wasn’t like he’d never see him again, but it wouldn’t be the same.

    There had to be more than surviving just to watch One For All die and Izuku retire from heroics. That couldn't be the end of their story.

    All Katsuki knew for sure was that the more Izuku faded from his life, the more uncertain and dark everything became.

    Summary

    Katsuki was far from okay, he was blindsided and already had a lot on his mind today. His worthless arm still felt like hell, too. The pain didn’t compare to how he felt upon hearing that word, engaged. Katsuki had already spent so much of his time since the war grasping with the realities of his life; his heart was shit and he was losing his arm. It had been three-years, he should have moved on from it all but he couldn’t. Every day his hero work reminded him of his limits.

    Worst of all, it was an excessive reminder that he had lost his rival. That was a tough blow for Katsuki to accept as they had spent so much time keeping one another on their toes and aiming for the same goal, it was what made Katsuki admire Izuku.

    Izuku was what made him want to be a great hero, who was he now without his body at complete health and without his rival? A pathetic hero in love with his former rival, who was now going to be married. If only Katsuki had carried that same courage in the war to save the world when it came to his best friend. Instead, he was still a coward. Even after he was on the brink of death.

    “Are you really going to marry him?” Katsuki blurted out, eyes falling to Izuku finally as he stood in place.

    Summary

    For the next few years, that’s how it went. Izuku and Katsuki would give each other the penny at random times, and the receiver always had to say whatever they were thinking out loud.

    No matter the thought, no matter the time or place, the boys staunchly refused to lie about their thoughts. It was always the truth. Because that’s the way it went.
