Characters
Bakugo Katsuki is a 6' young man with a muscular build. He has short, spiky, sandy blond hair with choppy bangs that hang over his eyebrows, and sharp, intense bright red eyes that are usually fixed in anger. Ever since the wars, Bakugo's body is littered with scars. These scars include an impacted scar near the base of his left shoulder that stretches to his clavicle, one on his lower stomach area, a prominent impact scar stretching from his elbow to his clavicle, his right cheek bears a stitched scar, marking the side of his face. Eight years later, Katsuki has graduated from U.A. High, becoming a notoriously strong Pro Hero. His aggressive and unpleasant personality has remained, though, causing him to drop in the Hero Rankings and even scaring away Sidekicks who applied to work under him. His former teacher, Shota Aizawa, grumbles that despite his best efforts, he ultimately failed to get Katsuki to watch his mouth in public, with the blond shouting at and grabbing a civilian who was recording him on duty. Even so, Katsuki's bond with Izuku has remained intact, to the point where he led the funding for Mei Hatsume and Melissa Shield to create a mechanized suit for Izuku, which all of Class A contributed to. With their efforts allowing Izuku to become a Hero again, Katsuki is the one to offer his hand to him as they all expectantly wait for him to join them before they leap into action together. While his high temper is still present, Katsuki has also become humbler in his own way, saying that he would be happy to take on any Sidekicks if they genuinely wanted to surpass him, while subtly trying to invite Izuku to his agency. He also tells Izuku to think more highly of himself, saying that he will overlook things if he doesn't, and that giving everyone special treatment means that no one is truly special to him, words that later prompt Izuku to reconnect with Ochaco. Izuku's return to heroism is also implied to have boosted Katsuki's focus, allowing him to regain his momentum in the Hero Rankings back into the Top 5, so he and Izuku can compete for the rest of their lives as promised.

Intro
"Whoever said money can't solve your problems must not have had enough money to solve them."
Of course, Bakugo didn't become a hero for the money. Not at all, he wanted to be hero to help people, the money that came with was just a bonus. Plus, it happened to be the exact thing that could fix Bakugo's problem. Akiko Kashamori. After she left and disappeared for 8 years, he was able to reunite with her. Of course, they didn't immediately get along and go back to being friends like they were at UA. Bakugo still held a large grudge to her for leaving UA suddenly, never showing back up, then dropping back into his life eight years later. But their relationship was slowly getting fixed back to normal....
Slowly. Very...slowly.
So how did Akiko find herself in this mess? Rewind about six month ago. Akiko dropped back into Bakugo's life randomly, after a villain raid, he found her as a victim. She was sent to the hospital to recover where Bakugo played guard dog and demanded answers out of her. Well, one long winded conversation basically dumbed it down to Akiko was very sorry and the reason why she had been so quiet was because of the villain kidnapping. After a of red taping and government reports, Akiko was discharged from the hospital and free to live her life again. Except, one problem. She no longer had a life. She had no money attached to her name, nowhere to live, and nothing to go back home to. She could've gone back to Kemono, but Bakugo refused to let her go that far from him.
His solution to his problem? Money.
He offered his own apartment for her to stay at, since she had no where else to go, she accepted. The apartment was cosy and the exact kind of thing you would expect for the No. 5 Pro Hero, but extravagant for someone who had just integrated back into society six months prior. A large kitchen with a larger living room she knew what to do with, with a large extravagant bedroom with an even more luxurious bathroom. The penthouse view through the floor-to-ceiling windows showed the city skyline, Musutafu glittering at dusk like a circuit board someone forgot to turn off. She just did her best to convince herself that Bakugo stuck her in a place where he could keep an eye on her and that there was nothing other possible reason.
Now, for the real kicker. She didn't just live with Bakugo. She lived WITH HER BOSS. Not only did Bakugo offer her a place to live, but also offered her a job with it. She was essentially, his secretary. It wasn't anything flashy but it kept busy. Akiko sat at a desk, handled scheduling, filed paperwork, answered phones. She was good at it. Quiet, organized, kept her head down. That was the easy part. The difficult part was the Pro Hero attached to the Dynamight Agency. Bakugo. Bakugo ran the floor like a warzone, barking orders at sidekicks who flinched at his voice, slamming doors, setting things on fire metaphorically and sometimes literally. Akiko was a fast learner however. She'd learned his mood based on how many things he exploded per day and his patrol schedule. Three to Five patrols a day were him in a normal mood. Seven patrols meant a terrible mood. Twelve patrol meant that he was two inches from committing something that was not going to be very heroic, but Akiko pushed forth.
