modern world/GO AU: katsudeku

so i thought of this for day 1 of katsudeku this morning while getting ready for adulting. the plan is to start writing this up after i put up this post (lol) also inspired by all the pokemon Go trash on my feeds

i made katsuki not as big a dick as canon just because his dekuanger is embedded in their quirks and childhood relationship (i believe) and here there is none of that. i was aiming for something like canon kiribaku

katsudeku day 1 #brainstormingthread from my twitter

1 day ago (7/14)

izukus bday is 7/15, katsukis bday is 4/20

first meeting! the day after izukus bday at a park where izuku accidentally bumps into katsuki??

they’re both playing GO but katsuki is a closet GO player who is slowly getting really into it

they both weren’t paying attention but katsuki blows up because keep outta the way ya damn nerd!

but izuku saw the game on katsukis phone before he could hide it and giggles, he starts pestering the other boy and even explains stuff about the game

he gets super excited because all his friends are already playing and know so much about it but here he can nerd out ‘for a good cause’

they have this ‘date’ and katsuki is panicking IS THIS A DATE and they plan to meet up again later

they exchange their contact info

5 hours later

turns out katsuki had been struggling to catch this pokemon because the ball wouldn’t fuckin go!! Izuku gets it on the first shot and katsuki mutters fuckin nerd but can’t REALLY be angry at the blinding smile directed at him

katsuki decides to call that pokemon fuckmunch in izukus honor and that becomes a habit, where he’ll be playing GO and can’t stop thinking about deku and he names pokemon after him like a dork

deku thinks the fuckmunch name is because katsuki is really angry but then comes to learn that angry is his default mood

one day katsuki calls him by some of the pokemon names he’s got saved and izuku realizes what’s happening because he’s observant as fuck the little dipshit

8 hours later

tying in the birthday prompt, deku’s phone is new! a birthday gift he received from All Might (idk relation yet) and first thing he does is play GO because his old phone would constantly crash but this one is so nice and NEW

when he exchanges numbers with katsuki, kacchan thinks he’s special because wow i’m his first contact (inner squeal) and that’s how katsuki thinks up dekus nickname

obviously he’s a hermit with no friends so midoriya ‘can’t do anything/deku’ izuku is perfect for him (he’s being a tsundick?)

but deku doesn’t get his nickname on their first meet. by the time he does get it deku knows katsukis mo so he fires back with kacchan and the names stick!

eventually katsuki finds out deku is very much social with two clingy, nosey, and overprotective friends 

1 hour later

katsuki also learns about a third friend Todo-something who is studying overseas who deku frequently talks with (he knows this because it’s the only number besides his that stays at the top of his sms messages

at this point deku explains the contact/new phone/birthday

katsuki gets deku a late present!

note: this has expanded longer than i thought it would so i’ll just keep editing and adding stuff as i think it up. i’d love to do a bit of fanart for this when i finally post it on ao3 (most likely just lineart xD)

"Watch where you're going ya damn nerd, damn it, can't even walk around town without one of you getting in the damn way!" (Pokemon GO AU)

deku's latest pokécatch

Read on Ao3

When everyone blew up about Pokémon GO Bakugou Katsuki swore he'd never ever play the damn game.

He ended up muting just about every person he followed on Twitter, stopped using Facebook (because my fuckin god even the teachers were playing!) and he shut off anyone who randomly stopped on the street to stare at their phones, catching whatever stupid Pikachu that'd shown up. So how the game ended up on his phone was quite the mystery (or not really, he knew it was that hair for brains asshole who'd been messing with his phone last week).

And now here he was, walking around downtown, having created his character and trying not to look like all the losers playing this shitty game.

Of course, it was easier said than done when it pissed him the fuck off. He was absolutely sure that he'd thrown the ball at the freakin bird cawing at him but the damn thing wouldn't go inside. No. In fact, the ball would go past the damn thing or it would disappear and he'd have to try again. He gripped his phone, tempted to smash it to the ground, "You little fucker-"

"AH!" his face was assaulted by dark green locks as he almost toppled over some stranger. The guy turned around quickly and shot him an apology but Katsuki short circuited. Are those really his natural eyes? which, fuck, now that he'd thought it he realized he shouldn't be one to talk. But they were just so...bright, and freckles. He didn't know many people with freckles...if any at all.

He scowled, "Watch where you're going ya damn nerd, damn it, can't even walk around town without one of you getting in the damn way!"

A blush immediately adorned the guy's face, "S-sorry, just, I-wait...are you playing too?"

Fuck. Katsuki stashed his phone in his pocket and growled at the stranger, "The hell I am!"
