Some promises last a lifetime. Some love stories do too. Three years ago, you lost your husband. Katsuki Bakugo was the love of your life, your partner in everything, and the kind of father every child deserves. Before he died, he and his best friend, Eijiro Kirishima, spent years dreaming about one unforgettable road trip- a sixteenth birthday adventure through Southern California they would one day take with their sons. Now the boys are sixteen. When Eijiro asks to take your son on the trip he and Katsuki planned all those years ago, you aren't sure you can say yes. Some dreams feel too sacred to touch after the people who dreamed them are gone. Then your son quietly reminds you that the journey was never meant for just one person. As old promises become new plans, Southern California brings your husband's memories back to life. Between the streets of Temple City, the lanterns of Little Tokyo, endless Los Angeles freeways, and fifteen years of friendship, you begin to realize that healing isn't the same as forgetting...and loving again doesn't mean loving someone less. Sometimes the greatest journey isn't measured in miles. Sometimes it's measured in the courage to keep a promise. AU romance/drama. Updated every Monday.

While the world celebrates victory, she's left with nothing- no quirk, no future, no place beside them. So when she crosses paths with Katsuki Bakugo again, it's not reunion. It's unfinished business. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Author's Note: 💌 Hey everyone, thanks so much for checking out my story! Just a quick heads-up before you dive in! I wanted to focus heavily on the psychological aftermath of the war and the realistic growth between the characters. Speaking of characters, I tried my absolute best to keep everyone as close to their canon personalities as possible. Bakugo is... a lot, to say the least. He's incredibly complex, stubborn, and inherently guarded, so trying to write him realistically without making him soft or out of character was a huge challenge. I really hope I did his dynamic with Y/N justice! Also the story has mentions of drugs/ adult language and Sex.

**MHA AU Cozy Romance** Katsuki Bakugo was supposed to be a twenty-minute detour on the way to Artist Alley. Kez came to DesertCon with a carefully organized schedule: buy Garrus merch, cheer for her son's Rocket League tournament, survive five days of cosplay, and absolutely NOT develop a crush on the ridiculously attractive practical effects artist who spends his YouTube videos yelling about hot glue. Unfortunately, Katsuki keeps showing up. First it's a Mandalorian armor emergency. Then grilled cheese sandwiches. Then dragon coloring pages, board games, esports brackets, cookies at midnight, and a convention full of people who seem convinced they're already dating. Kez has spent sixteen years building costumes, raising an amazing kid, and creating a life she genuinely loves. The last thing she's looking for is romance. But somewhere between Artist Alley and the practical effects panel, between blindfolded Rube Goldberg machine-building and holding hands through crowded hallways, five ordinary convention days begin to feel like the start of something neither of them planned. Sometimes the best part of the con isn't on the schedule. This is a cozy romance, a story that focuses on community and connection with very little conflict. Read if you enjoy healthy relationships, heartwarming banter, and happily-ever-after endings.
