Kiribaku Fic Recs!
I wanted to do a list of fanfics that are really close to my heart!
Sorry if it is too long but I wanted it all in one place.
My First One And Only by Quirkless-One (BlackBarBooks)
This is one of my favorites. Bakugou and Kirishima discover all stages of relationship together. They both have no idea what they’re doing, but they figure it out with the power of love! It’s unfinised, but it has 26 chapters out already.
This one is really intense! Kirishima and Bakugou are locked together in the closet because they play the game of seven minutes in heaven. The tension between these two is so thick you could cut it with a knife.
It’s an Omegaverse fic. Kirishima is an Alpha and he is addicted to suppressants because he had a really dangerous rut. Bakugou is an Omega and helps Kirishima with his struggles. Obviusly they fall in love during it.
This is an direct sequel to Heartbeat Thunder. This one is much heavier, deals with serious topics such as pregnancy and miscarriage. I cried so much reading this, so be prepared for feels!
Outshining the Sun by thesweetestnerd
Class 2-A are going on a school trip. Bakugou and Kirishima are in love with each other, but neither is aware of it. They struggle with jealousy and miscommunication. Things get complicated when Mina confesses to Kirishima and he agrees because she’s too nice to hurt her feelings.
what he thinks he knows by octobuns
Bakugou rediscovers things he thought he knew about Kirishima. It’s really sweet!
Another Omegaverse by amazing Shippeh! This one is so good. Kirishima is an Omega and a relly cute barista. Alpha Bakugou is ready to do anything to win his heart. But Kirishima has a dark past and a lot of issues, but Bakugou is here to help him go through it.
Tomorrow, Today by timetoboldlygo
I think this one is my favorite. Please read this! Bakugou and Kirishima are all grown up and married. But they are in a middle of argument when they get hit by a quirk that throws them back in time. They have to deal with difficult emotions while trying to go back to the present. They are so in love with each other, and their relationship is really healthy! My heart was sqeezed so many times by this fic!
Twelve Fifty-One by Trenchcoatkitten
Another one of my favorites! This is a Band AU! Kirishima is the lead singer in the band and Bakugou is the replacement bassist. Kirishima is head over heels (who can blame him, Bakugou has piercings!) Also, they sing with each other!
(Distance Makes the Heart Grow Fonder) FALSE by dragontrappedinhumanskin
This is pure fluff! Bakugou and Kirishima are hit with a quirk that forces them to stay really close to each other. Yeah, they have to spend every second with each other. They dance together and share clothes! It’s really sweet.
A matter of chemistry by mcshamey
This is a College AU. Kirishima share chemistry classes with this grumpy but hot guy and he decides that he will befriend him. Turns out they become more than friends. It’s basically fluff with a little drama at the end, but nothing big.
This fic will break your heart, I warn you! Bakugou is an old man and he is dying. He records his thoughts about his memories with Kirishima. They were in love but broke up when they were younger. Kirishima moved on and started a family with another man. But Bakugou never stopped loving him.
and Kirishima’s point of view:
After Bakugou’s death Kirishima finds out about his feelings, which he had hidden for so many years.
Everybody is wondering why Kirishima and Bakugou aren’t a couple yet. They’re obviusly in love with each other. But they made a promise to wait.
Kirishima lost a bet and had to flirt with Bakugou for a month. But Bakugou is weirdly okay with that. Fluff, fluff and fluff!
Sent, Delivered, Read, Loved by KiriBakuHappiness
This one is really interesting because it shows Bakugou and Kirishima’s text conversations and how their relationship developed.
I Loved You Once and It Seemed Enough
After many years of not talking Bakugou and Kirishima reunites and fall in love with the new versions of themselves.
After a drinking party with the whole class, Bakugou and Kirishima end up sleeping together. They both are afraid that this will affect their friendship. They don’t realize that they both want more.
Bakugou is an trangender ballet dancer. He overworked and ends up with leg contusion. Kirishima is his lovely physical therapist and helps him recover. (And they fall in love)
an opera in 5 parts by oredatte
This one is very heavy. CW: self harm. Bakugou can’t stop cutting himself and Kirishima finds out. It’s really finely written.
Resident Ships in the Night by redriothashira
Bakugou and Kirishima are divorced. After Kirishima’s grandma dies, they are forced to fix a cabin together and deal with their feelings for each other. This fic is very mature and I loved the different approach of their characters.
This is an AU where everything is basically the same but Kirishima dicides to not apply to UA. He meets Bakugou and they develop an connection.
This fic is very angsty but it has fluffy moments as well.
Kirishima’s Cocktails by Stitch_In_Time
Bakugou is depressed and his life is falling apart. He meets a bright plumber who helps him rebuild his bar. They fall in love but Bakugou still has to deal with his mental issues.
Freshly Ground Coffee by arxaris
Cute Coffe Shop AU where Bakugou is a pro hero and Kirishima is a fanboy barista.
show me where it hurts by JustAKilljoy
Soulmate AU where you can feel your soulmates pain and Bakugou begins to experience panic attacks that are not his own.
you have made me feel so sure by honeijirou
Another Soulmate AU where first words are written on your body. Kirishima doesn’t have them. He meets Bakugou who has hearing problems and doesn’t speak.
pickup lines and valentines by aloera
And another soulmate AU! Basically whatever you write on your body, it appears on your soulmate body as well. Nobody believes them, when Bakugou and Kirishima say that they are in a relationship.
Worth a Thousand Words by awareoftheconcept
Kirishima is convinced that Bakugou is dating Camie and struggles with jealousy. Little does he know that Bakugou is in love with him.
tell me the truth (even if it hurts) by Kilaco77
Kirishima is hit by a quirk, causing everyone to tell him the truth. Kirishima learns bad things, but Bakugou tries to protect him.
The Lost Continent by cattchi, paglykosReading this fic feels like readin a good, adventure book. It’s about pirattes! Bakugou is a Captain of the ship and Kirishima is a noble boy, who was taken hostage. But they fell in love and Kirishima finds happiness and a new way of life.
The quarantine really has me out here writing more fanfics!
Here’s a Casunzel one for y’all!
The Wastelander’s Guide to Pet CarebyArisuAmiChan
Day-to-day activities after the bombs aren’t so different. The sights though… That takes some getting used to.
Especially out in the Mojave.
Especially the ones surrounding Kurosaki Ichigo.
LISTEN OKAY LISTEN OKAY
I fucking love kittie so much and without them screaming with me this wouldn’t even be a reality. KITTIE I LOVE YOU OH MY GOD LOOK AT THOSE DORKS

Separate fandoms and even separate platforms will have their own trends when it comes to the type of content they create. The above quote compares fanfiction from the same fandom but on different platforms.
A survey of the ‘Sherlock/John’ tag on the MTSlash archive revealed that a majority of the written works were rated ‘G’ or ‘PG’ as opposed to the predominance of ‘M’ and ‘R’ rated works on global archives such as fanfiction.net an AO3.

This observation shows again that when talking about trends in different fandoms, it’s worth to take a look at the different platforms they appear at and if they appear differently there.
Do you have similar observations about different kinds of platforms you are familiar with?
THE RISE OF A SUN/FALL OF A STAR SERIES: ship manips
tom riddle and esrom riddle ( née trelawney ) circa 1957
❝It was true that Tom Riddle was conceived under a love potion and thus he would grow up with the inability to love another and it was true that he didn’t love Esrom Trelawney; she didn’t love him either. Their marriage was nothing more than a vow that bonded them together, tied his power to hers and vice versa. But at one point they did love each other, deep down, that was long ago back before their relationship was devastated by Tom Riddle’s perverse need for power and immortality. It was true that Tom Riddle could’ve loved Esrom Trelawney and she could’ve loved him but he loved power more and he would stop it nothing to live forever. It was tragically true that any chance for them to love the other died in nineteen-forty-six alongside Tybalt Riddle. Any chance that Tom Riddle had at becoming the most powerful wizard in the world or becoming immortal had died that day too. It was ironic that the one thing that could have saved Tom Riddle would lead to his downfall. It was true that Tom Riddle and Esrom Trelawney could have loved each other but instead they only ever ended up killing each other in many different ways.❞

Burns and Brass Knuckles— Chapter One
This is the first longfic I’ve written that is explicitly canon character x oc centric! I originally intended to write this as an x reader, but I couldn’t get anywhere with it. Every time I got to writing our bounty hunter, I just froze. I wanted to characterize and describe her in certain ways that just weren’t possible when writing something as vague as a reader-insert. This is also my first real attempt at a slowburn so I hope this is good. To the first chapter of probably many!
Relationship(s): Black Krrsantan & Original Female Bounty Hunter; Original Female Bounty Hunter & Other Original Characters
Warnings: Imperial/Rebellion Era; Alcohol consumption, Slight sexual harassment, Canon-typical violence, Death, Smoking, Slight non-sexual nudity
Word Count: 1,372
The only place where a wookie could blend in is Kashyyk. But Krrsantan can’t go back to Kashyyyk. Thus, he is eternally burdened with being an outsider, an other. The horrifying beast sitting in the back of a cantina that everyone stares at and treads lightly around. But Krrsantan doesn’t care. He’s grown numb to the gazes of others, especially after his days in the pits. And after all, bounty hunters are bound to get stares.
He could tell she was a bounty hunter the minute she entered the cantina; the dual blasters hanging around her waist were a dead giveaway. Her black hair was pulled back in a braid that reached down to the middle of her back. The worn black wampa leather jacket shone in the muted light of the bar as she sat down, the wedge heels of her battle boots instantly locking into the little bar on the cantina stool. Her gaze traveled around the room, calculated and analytical. When her eyes fell upon Krrsantan, she paused for a millisecond, then continued her scan of the room. To the average cantina patron, her eyes kept moving, but the wookie picked up on her miniscule surprised pause. She clearly wasn’t anticipating another hunter being in the same sector as her. Krrsantan wondered briefly if there were two bounties hiding out on the same skughole, but the chance of that was slim to none.
She called the rodian bartender over to order a drink, and he made it for her quickly. It was a blueish-purple concoction, and Krrsantan could only guess what was in it. Probably a mix of spotchka, Corellian whiskey, and maybe some Naboo wine, judging by the colors. She spun the drink around in the glass before taking a sip. Her movements were elegant yet purposeful. As she spun her drink, she leaned back to spare a quick glance at him, and Krrsantan noticed. He tilted his head and shifted his hands on the table; letting the brass knuckles shine in the low cantina light. She noticed the movement, and straightened her posture, one of her hands leaving the counter, and likely landing on a blaster. She nodded her head to the door, the unanimous we’ll talk outside known by every seasoned hunter.
She moved to finish her drink, the glass hardly touching her lips when one of the cantina’s patrons approached her, a zabrak. Krrsantan had been keeping an eye on him, as he had already started trouble earlier in the night, and the nautolan owner of the establishment had nearly kicked the skinny womp rat out for trying to get a rise out of a very drunk Devorian. The zabrak leaned against the bar, flashing the woman a flirtatious grin.
“Hey sweetheart,” the zabrak started, his words slightly slurred, “what’s a pretty gem like you doing in a skughole like this?”
The woman huffed, hardly giving the zabrak a glance as she continued drinking what was in her glass. The zabrak, in response, tilted his head at her. “What’s so funny, girlie?”
She finally looked at him as she finished the last of her drink, settling the glass onto the counter. “Where’d you get that one, a book?”
The definitely-not-sober zabrak suddenly grew angry, pushing himself up to get in her face, his hands balled into fist. The woman didn’t flinch. “I was tryin’ to be nice to ya’, but if you’re gonna be a bitch, I might as well take–”
The zabrak didn’t finish his sentence.
Krrsantan didn’t see her reach for one of her blasters, but he saw the flash, and the zabrak crumbled to the dusty ground, the wooden floor adding another blood stain to its collection. The cantina grew silent and still, all eyes on the woman.
She flashed the owner a grin, her shoulders shrugging apologetically. “Sorry ‘bout that Nula. Here,” she tossed a sack of credits onto the counter, “hope this’ll pay for any damages, and my drink.”
Nula shook her head, trying to suppress a grin, “Keep shooting my clientele and I’ll call the Empire in, Vexin.”
“Vexin” only laughed. She stood from her seat, gave Krrsantan a poignant look, and stepped out of the cantina.
Krrsantan had to admit, she intrigued him. He’s heard the name “Vexin” in passing when he had to interact with other bounty hunters in the past. She’s a younger guild member. Some called her a “pretentious upstart,” but some praised her competence, and Krrsantan definitely witnessed it moments before. Grunting, he walked up to the counter and dropped his own stack of credits next to hers, and followed out as the chatter of the cantina continued on as if nothing happened.
He found her leaning against the wall just outside the cantina, lighting up a cigarra. She took a huff, inhaling deep before exhaling. The bitter smoke faintly hit his nose.
“Nice to finally meet the legendary Krrsantan,” Vexin said, craning her head to look the wookie in the eyes, “‘Was a big fan of your gladiator career.”
Krrsantan nodded, “Heard much of you as well, Vexin.”
Her lip curled up in a smirk, “Oh really? Well I hope what you heard is good,” she took another huff of the cigarra, “What’re you doing here?”
“Bounty,”was the wookie’s response. “I assume that is what you are here for as well.”
“You assume right, though Nula’s drinks are some of the best in the parsec.” She rested her head against the wall, the smirk fading into a determined frown. “Look, I know you aren’t guild, Krrsantan, but I respect you. You stay out of my way, and I stay out of yours. Deal?”
“Deal,”he agreed. Vexin grinned, flicking the cigarra to the ground, a battle boot smothering the embers to dust.
She pushed herself off the wall, giving Krrsantan one last look before she turned around. “Good luck on your hunt, though I’m sure you don’t need it.”
Krrsantan growled out at acknowledgement. “You too, Vexin,” he said, though only in his head.
⚋
Ria Vexin collapsed on the inn bed, the blasters’ holsters still slung around her waist slap mutely against the Tauntaun fur blankets. The hidden vibroblades dug against the skin of her arm. That was Black Krrsantan. TheBlack Krrsantan. The legend. Her teenage self would’ve squealed and asked for his autograph. But she had to push away the awe of seeing an icon. She’d been on this planet for nearly two standard months tracking her target; A Bonthan businessman that owed money to the wrong people. A freelance player like Krrsantan being here worried her; the chance of two different marks hiding out in the same sector was slim to none. And if the client contracted the Guild and a freelancer… there was going to be trouble.
Ria shook her head and looked out the window at the quiet streets of the town, the usually starry sky obscured by fluffy clouds. Two people were walking down the near-empty streets, their laughter ringing through the brick walls of the room. Her gloved hands trembled, and she reached into her jacket pocket for a cigarra and light. She slid open the window, holding the unlit cigarra between her first two fingers, the flash of fire shooting adrenaline in her veins. As Ria inhaled, she put her mind at ease. No matter what happened, whether or not the wookie was going for the same bounty, she would come out on top. She’s survived in this business for seventeen years, and she wasn’t going to turn tail now. The smooth exhale of gray smoke provided a rush of calm, any anxiety soothed down into her gut. She inhaled and exhaled until the only thing left of the cigarra was a burning, ashy stub. She held it between her fingers for a moment, unflinching of the searing pain on her fingertips.
When the burning was gone, Ria flicked the dead stub out the window and rubbed the remaining ash between her fingers. She pulled the window down again, and methodically removed her weapons and laid them out on the dresser. And when she was left in only her tank top and underwear, she pulled out her braid, and let sleep take over.

For the first time in a good long while, I’ve posted a fanfiction chapter! It’s not historical (technically it’s… kinda got a 50’s vibe but I digress), rather it’s post-apocalyptic in the special Fallout 4 flavour. A love letter to my favourite synth detective:
My Funny Valentine - Chapter 1 - George_Sand_II - Fallout 4 [Archive of Our Own]
Love you Nick ❤️
the pros of reading ao3 fics in public is that their layout is so clean and simple that people would think you’re reading some academic researches when you’re in fact reading a 50k fic. the cons is that you need to control your face all the fucking time
An additional feature: the layout is clean and simple BUT anyone familiar with AO3 will immediately recognize it. Pro or con? You decide.
But you know, what were they doing at the devil’s sacrament
