[Bakugo hasn't pushed Scott to engage in those sorts of training exercises, but he plans to in the future. Anywhere from fighting with his shades knocked off to dealing with someone or something that could potentially reflect his optic blasts. And then there's the normal fighting deaf or blinded or with a limb missing or bound. Maybe those things won't really come up here in this stupid place, but if anything, it's an interesting distraction?
Speaking of distraction... Might be embarrassing if Scott gets a boner during their spar, but Bakugo's likely gonna taunt him about it rather than stop the fight and deal with it. Then again, he'll be focusing on winning, even if right now he's taking a few unnecessary eye wanders over the mutant's body. The way he moves his arms and pulls at his sides, causing his chest and shoulders to flex and shift under his skin. Hmph, yeah, knowing exactly what he looks like under those clothes makes this... distracting.]
Pin has to last for five seconds. [Otherwise the first one floors and dropped on wins, and he can't have that crap. Bakugo steps into the room and leaves his boots by the door rather than stomp around on the mats with those hard-soled monsters. Tear right through the coverings after a few hard moves. He drops his arms and lets them swing before turning to face Scott. Anything goes works with him.] When you're ready.
[He affirms, agreeing to their terms without another thought. Sounds fair enough to him and they've sparred like that before. It's part of the whole idea of making this familiar; it's just that Scott hopes that it feels that way still. Looking at Bakugo and his determined expression, maybe he really is the only one that's thinking too much about it, but he's having a hard time reading the other teen. He doesn't know for sure.
Only way to know for certain is just... ask. Later on.
But leaving his own shoes off, he braces himself on top of the mats, something more relaxed and actually calm taking a hold of him as he fully looks at his opponent, settle into training mode. This feels good at least, just leave everything else behind and only focus on Bakugo's movements. It makes him feel good and he gets practice in. Scott's glad that at least that part of his mind isn't thinking about getting dicked.]
Ready.
[And that's pretty much the only warning he gives before he steps forward, stance ready. Guard up, only switching to more active as he extends a jab out, never putting his full strength in but not really holding back either. He'd get the floor wiped from him if he didn't give it his all anyway.]
[They should have enough time to break out of a hold, giving them the chance to train on escaping someone who's a little too damn clingy. Unnerving reality being it's come in handy a few times in this shitty place. Unfortunately, Scott's not the only one thinking about it; Bakugo, however, is more used to compartmentalizing and stuffing things down when he focuses on the task at hand. Heroes can't be distracted with shit like... uh... stomach butterflies in the middle of a fight.
Bakugo moves back on the mat to let them center each other. Without his Quirk, he opts for a more traditional martial arts stance. He thought about sticking to one practice while growing up, but quickly abandoned the notion for more power and flexibility. Adapting and being able to change from one practice to another gives a big advantage in fights. Hard karate strikes, grappling throws, powerful limb locks, akido pressure jabs, tai chi deflections, and more. All elements he's gathered into his own experience and use.
Ready. Instantly he steps into Scott's jab, he moves his arm to let the strike glance off his forearm, pushing both his and Scott's limb to the side in a deflect while simultaneously throwing a hard right hook towards the mutant's chest.]
[Most of his hand-to-hand started with what he learned from Raven, who is certainly no slouch, but he and the others only trained for a few months before he found himself here. Then it was just building what he learned from those sessions, mostly practicing with the teen that he's now standing across from. It's been so valuable and important to Scott, to find someone like this here. Not only willing to teach him (even if it's through example), but also not go easy on him.
He's gotten better, for sure. Far better than the first time they went at each other, where he was knocked to the floor in a minute. He got back at him in return eventually and it's been a constant back and forth between them, each session never failing to pump his blood and get the mutant to feel energized. It's probably where he really started to grow fond of the other teen, more than just hearing his views as a hero back home. That was a good starting point, of course, but shifting into something physical-- then having lunches together, hanging out at the arcade. That came easy right after.
When did all that start to really matter to Scott so much? Guess when he suddenly realized that he didn't want to lose any of it. Especially not here, where it's taken him a while to be comfortable again, without his teammates around.
At least he's not distracted by these thoughts. His initial jab's blocked and deflected, Scott reacting only just in time to block the hook with his other arm. Not having enough time to fully counter, and he's already on the defensive, eyes glinting behind his sunglasses as he takes a couple of steps back, arms up and ready.]
[He had to go easy the first few times. Finding out Scott was so new to martial arts the initial spar meant he could've wiped the floor with him easily. And now one's going to learn getting their ass handed to them so fast they can't figure out what to do to improve. Good for him Scott's a fast learner, and skilled too. Bakugo got to watch him grow pretty quickly over the weeks, able to stand up to him after a month and give him a good challenge.
From a leg sweep to getting thrown over Scott's shoulder, he's had his share of tumbles on the mat. Bakugo's a sore loser and winner, so each fall, pin, or defeat flared his temper, but never had him quitting until he was able to bring their "score" back to even! Even if it left him a panting, sweating mess with a smirk struggling to stay on his face. He looked forward to the days he trained with Scott, feeling a gentle warmth and nostalgia like when he was able to train with Kirishima or Midoriya back home. Something he silently grew fond of. And someone.
Enough to flare up into an encouraged, but sincere date he's thought plenty on over the past few days. Bakugo always said he wanted to go home and screw this place in particular, but Scott's now one of the handful of people the young hero struggles over the thought of losing. Frustrating.
Scott goes on full defensive and Bakugo swiftly capitalizes on it. Rather than go for a punch, he instantly switches his hands and grabs at the mutant's arms, one strong grip clamped around his wrist and the other on his forearm. Blocking him is dangerous, as he seamlessly transitions to a grapple, controlling both of Scott's arms to keep them out of the way as he steps in and rams his knee towards his chest.]
[He's fast, unrepentant with his moves, and Scott wouldn't ask for anything different. Oh, he'll certainly curse him in his mind, but he isn't going to complain or whine.
A loud and audible grunt leaves Scott when Bakugo lands his hit, knee slamming into his chest and it's only through sheer stubbornness on his end that he doesn't let himself react more than that. Fuck that hurt, bastard, that flash of his own competitiveness spiking as he looks at his opponent and twists himself so that he can counter and break out of the grapple.
At least his forearm is pulled away from a strong grip, using that momentum to try and sweep the leg his friend is still standing on.]
[Good. Bitching during a spar means Bakugo goes for a hard throw or pin, purely out of enjoying spite. He does at least pull his attacks enough not to leave Scott with long-lasting bruises. They're not trying to beat each other up here. But an ache? Yeah, he'll have that for a little while.
Bakugo snarls when Scott twists himself, having to release his arms so he doesn't get yanked into his body at close range. Even with his strength, body slamming the other in a wrestling suplex isn't his preference.
He drops his foot to the ground again, bracing himself just in time for Scott's sweep to slam into his leg. It's enough to rock him up onto the braced on and he hops to the side once, twice, to avoid getting tripped up, breaking his hold on Scott's upper body in the process.]
[Heh, asshole managing to get both feet planted before he could get in.
There's a small smirk, one that briefly twitches at the corner of his mouth despite everything, before he presses on, closing that short distance between them and now using his free arms to feint an attack on the left before swinging more with a jab on the right, aiming for Bakugo's chest as he keeps pressing on an offensive now.
Best defense is a good offense? Besides, he can only get so far through guarding and trying to counter. Not to mention there's that additional spike of blood pumping through his veins as he keeps at it with his friend, a spark of red glinting behind his glasses as well as sweat beading across his forehead. He's sure that they might actually draw a couple of interested people with how they're fighting, despite their low rank, but he doesn't need assholes gawking at them. It's why he picked this closed off room for just the two of them.]
[He's been fighting almost his entire life, learning how to move his body quickly and predict his opponent's motions. Current position, common attacks, how they would capitalize, a lot of people think the same in the heat of battle, always trying to gain the advantage. Scott presses his offense and Bakugo snarls as he's forced onto the proverbial back foot. A fake out to the left, another strike from the right, causing both arms to move and block.
Bakugo doesn't need other people staring at them, always opting to spar with others in the closed rooms. He likes being able to focus on his opponent and nothing else. Though this time, his focus slips into other thoughts. A flicker of red sparking behind Scott's shades, the twitch of his lips in a smirk, a lick of sweat wandering down his cheek. Fucking details he wouldn't have thought much of before, but now twitter on his peripheral. Stupid sexy bastard.
[Not that he's cocky, because it's not over until it's actually over, but there's a boost to his movements as he keeps on that offensive, trying to break through Bakugo's guard even as each blocked strike expends his energy and getting that sweat to roll down his face. His lips parted, Scott's only able to truly focus on this spar and not the way his friend's muscles smoothly flex and show off in the light because of sheer will. Same brain that helped him focus on getting the mission done after Alex's death.
Another punch. Another feint. And then--]
Ow, fuck! Asshole--
[No holding back his shouting this time, because fuck that hurt. An extremely hard head meeting his own (who has the harder head? who knows) and it's enough to get Scott to stagger in his movements, the mutant stepping back a couple steps from the teen.]
[Bastard's making him hunker down! Arms up, blocking one hit after the next, working to make sure those fists glance off one side and the other. His arms and shoulders can easily handle the brunt of it, considering the recoil his explosions force on them all the time. But Scott's no pushover either. The only reason Bakugo's tanking these things is because he wants a clear shot at-
THOCK!!
-right there! Bakugo's headbutted people before. And no! It never feels "good" when he does it! Pain blooms in his head, his skin reddens behind his bangs, but there's a maniac grin spreading across his face as he blitzes through starlight blinking behind his eyes and shoves himself right into Scott's personal space. One shoulder into his chest, and a leg swiftly hooking and jerking behind the mutant's calves!
Fully intending to dump his back right onto the floor and go for the pin!]
[Scott barely catches that crazy ass smile on Bakugo's face before said face is directly in front of him and one collision later, the mutant finds himself plastered on the ground as his legs are swept beneath him in an expert hook. Well, combined with a fucking headbutt of all things. Granted, he shouldn't be surprised, this is Bakugo, and he said anything goes, but.
Still calling him a bastard in his mind. Stupid attractive bastard that's currently grappling him to the mats, their bodies flushed together.
As the seconds tick down for the pin, Scott struggles against the well-muscled teen, slick muscle sliding against one another and he's still recovering enough from the blow to at least not get hard from that, but unfortunately, he can also feel victory slowly slip from his grasp as he's unable to get the right angle to dislodge Bakugo from his limbs. If he really wanted to cheat, he could probably tug his glasses off, but he didn't say powers this time and not at this close proximity. Not unless he had his visor.
So, he just pushes and tugs, trying to gain some ground, but...]
[As soon as Scott's world tilts backwards, Bakugo bends forward and grabs onto his shoulder. He follows him down, grunting as he slams the mutant to the mat with a hard impact. It only takes a second to drop his knee onto Scott's thigh, pinning it outward as his other lands with one shin crossing the mutant's own. That takes care of his legs. No attempts to kick or lash out as he's practically kneeling on the guy's limbs.
Shit, as much as he'd like to shove together and really trap Scott into the ground, Bakugo knows exactly what part of his body's thinking like that! He'll... fuck, he'll deal with that in a minute!
One hand plastered onto Scott's shoulder, his other arm's free to try and fend off those attempted blows to dislodge him. Jerks from side to side rock his body, but he counter balances with tilts and jerks, wrestling Scott onto his back again each time. Until finally he manages to grapple the other boy's hand and jails it to the mat above his head, ending up with his body kneeling and leaning over Scott's, muscular chest heaving with hard breaths, red eyes locked onto the mutant's sweat-slick face.]
[There's only so much he can try and toss the other teen off him with such limited movement, legs pinned and after a few rough tussles, arm pulled and held above his head so that he only has the one hand left to try and break free. It's definitely a losing battle, but it's still one that Scott fights to the very end for, hips jerking and spine curving in an attempt to break some space and get some leverage, but to no avail.
Damn muscular bastard. How many times has he internally said that now? A lot. Scott would just say that the boot fits--
And Bakugo really has him flat and secured on the ground, his own loud breaths panting out and mixing with the other teen's as he stares up at those red eyes (even more red because of his glasses? no that's not how that works but). He looks mildly grumpy, as he doesn't like losing, and petty enough that he doesn't count at all because hell no. He's going to only admit defeat until the time has passed.
Scott's legs press up and his hand struggles in the other teen's grip, muscles bulging as he tries one last time with all his strength to break his hold, but Bakugo is stronger than him. And he has the advantage.]
[There's no half-assed attempts to free himself, no slacking off towards the end. Scott fights the entire damn time they're tussling on the ground. Bakugo's torn between keeping the teenage mutant pinned to the mat and trying not to get distracted from all the different ways Scott's bucking and writhing under him. Shit, stop thinking about how he used those same damn moves while they were on the couch together! And, uh... other times. ...fuck.
He cuts off before final count, eyes widening as Scott suddenly heaves up a last attempt. Legs surge against his knee and shin, shoulder shoving at his hand, almost lifting him clean off the ground for a scant second.]
Down. [SHOVE!! Three thuds and Bakugo's got Scott right back flush to the ground, a panting sweating mess with very exposed shoulders and arms and a hell of a flushed look on his face. As if that doesn't remind him of other moments between them. From a blizzard-swamped cabin to windows fogging in a car.]
[Scott doesn't consider himself down and out yet as Bakugo interrupts his own count, thinking that he might've cut himself an opportunity. He surges up against him with limbs and muscles strained-- until the sudden growl of the other teen reaching his ears dashes all hopes of that. His body smacks right back on the ground with a low gasp emerging from Scott, both from his exertion and just the way Bakugo snarled that single word at him and fuck.
Why did his body think that was way hotter than it should be? A part of him wants to fight back, but another part of him, that's just as strong, basically equal, wants to just let this spar go to Bakugo as he stares up at the panting teen. He's equally flushed, sweat rolling down his face, and it's probably because Bakugo still has him pinned that Scott doesn't try to surge up and kiss him, just like this.
Instead, he continues looking up at Bakugo with that exposed, sweaty face, lips parted as breathes push out of his chest. He's no longer fighting, and honestly just trying to stop his body from reacting too much. He... he still wants to talk and all that too, but gazing up at the other hero like this, Scott's mind barely registers anything else besides noting just how fucking attractive and hot he looks. How stupidly warm his chest gets when he's hanging out with him.]
[As if he'd let Scott break free when he was so close to victory! His shoulders harden as Scott shoves up against his arms, thighs flexing with one putting more pressure on his knee, the other grinding down on his shin, core tightening to try and compact himself even more. Refusing to allow the mutant an escape until he drops his friend right back down to the mat with a single snarl and shove. Everything thuds below him and once more, he's on top.
Paying way too much attention to Scott's presence beneath him. From lines of sweat dripping down his face to the tension in his neck thanks to a damn swallow to the way his chest rises and falls with bellowing breaths. Scott looks too damn good when he's hot and breathless like this. Shit, he really should focus on the spar, not on... how much he wants to just lean down and... ah hell with it.
Bakugo's the one who drops down, head tilting and lips finding Scott's own in a heated kiss. The taste of sweat instantly bites on his lips and tongue, not giving a shit whether his body's so eager to respond to his budding interest since the start. Spar's over, he won, he can move onto something else. Scott said he wanted to talk about something, but he'll have to wait unless he wants to try shoving his words between their lips. There's nothing else to "blame" this on now. It's pure and honest attraction and want.]
[A small noise scrapes free from his throat as their lips meet, similarly tasting sweat and everything else that simply makes the other teen. Fuck, he's wanted this, to the point that it's almost embarrassing. Just the feeling of heat and aggression, but also attraction mixed in, always gets the mutant to similarly reciprocate.
He knows he should at least give some sort of attempt to push away, so that he can get his words out, be sort of responsible and rational, but instead of doing any of that, his free hand moves up to grab the back of spiky blonde hair, his grip burying almost roughly into his strands. And unlike the last few grapples, there's no effort to push him away or fight, now fully intending to keep him pressed close as he deepens their kiss, tongue sliding back into that familiar mouth as that heat between them grows.
...Okay, he probably should interrupt this soon, because he definitely wants to talk before they do anything more than this. But fuck, man, why can't that part of him just shut up so that he can enjoy this?? Can't he just have horny brain right now?? Instead of stupid responsible brain???
Give him a few seconds to enjoy this more. Scott thinks it's a reasonable compromise anyway, the mutant making another rough noise from the base of his throat as he slides their tongues together. Maybe a part of him wants to at least pin his tongue down but that would be petty right--]
[Salty and wet, that's what their kiss tastes like. Amid all that pleasure and heated relief, he's kind of pissed he wants this so much. Dammit, he should've been focused on fighting, on sparring, on getting stronger! Instead, he's down here making out with Scott on the fucking mat. And can't bring himself to be angry enough to care.
There's plenty more time to spar, there's more time to get stronger, hell there's more time to do this too. Whatever, nothing says it has to go beyond that. A hand grabs the back of his head, fingers dig into his hair, Scott's rougher grip threatens to catch Bakugo's breath in his throat, and he likes it. No attempt to shove him off or pull his head away. It's all welcome and wanting. Hauling him close even if he wanted to pull back.
Mmmn, tongue. Pushing past his lips and shoving between his teeth with a low growl and groan. Fuck, that feels good. He lifts his own and tangles it with Scott's immediately, trying to wrestle his slick muscle into the juicy floor of his jaw. Maybe they should stop, but that'd be responsible, and apparently sexual heat doesn't give a shit about being responsible. He breaks the kiss for a split second, enough to suck a breath in, then dives right back to Scott's mouth.
Go ahead and try to wrestle his tongue; Bakugo's up for the challenge, already twisting his tongue around the mutant's in attempt to shove it down. Kind of like the rest of him, still pinning Scott to the mat. As if their mouths are the final attempt Scott can make to try for one last victory.]
He might've had a chance to begin the Conversation when the blonde pulled away just briefly, but it's back to sparring, except, just with their mouths this time.
Truly, any word that started to form from Scott is immediately silenced as Bakugo barrels straight down and pushes their mouths together once more. It's rough, but familiar and it's so easy to just turn his head, angling his mouth so they can slide their tongues even deeper against each other. Pressing, stroking-- to the point that a pleased and rough little groan emits from Scott as his hand clenches and unclenches in his hair. Nothing about this is really clean, but Scott never cared about that, barely paying attention how saliva escapes the corner of his mouth as he tries to pin Bakugo's own slick muscle down to his jaw.
Maybe he can cheat a little and move his hand from spiky hair to the back of his nape, stroking the sweaty skin there.]
[Why the hell does if feels so good? He knows why, but... but fuck. This heat consumes him with each twisting tangle of Scott's tongue around his own. What started as fists and knees connecting in body blows and blocks has completely consumed itself in a different battle. This one with his hands touching and his body pressing, memories of a fire-lit body writhing beneath him on the couch blooming hot and ready in his mind. If Scott came here to talk about something, it's gonna have to wait until they're no longer trying to forget the needs to breathe.
Bakugo's eyes flutter shut as a hand slides down to his nape, caressing over sweat-slick skin and scrunching up into the jagged rim of his hairline buried under a few shorter layers. It's enough to earn a shudder down his spine, mouth breaking the kiss long enough to suck in a few molten breaths against Scott's lips. His knee slips off the mutant's thigh and thuds into the mat, shin slowly gliding downward as Bakugo starts melting out of that martial pin.
...and probably intending to go into another kind.]
[As they break their kiss once more, but still so close to each other, with breaths intermixing, he knows that it's pretty much now or never. Scott nearly shuts his eyes behind his glasses, mentally hating that he wants to do this, but it's important and it will stick to his mind otherwise.
So.
His hand draws itself away from Bakugo's nape, dropping lightly on the mat as he forces himself to push those first words out.]
Bakugo, hey, wait...
[Scott's already regretting getting Bakugo to stop, so comfortably warm and eager to just continue this, but he knows that he'll just end up regretting things more if he lets all this go on without talking about things first. And shit, it feels like something a girl would do or whatever, but communication is something actually important to him. Not just as a X-Man leader, but... just in general. Especially in a place like this.]
[Somewhere in the midst of heat and want, reality slices a cold skewer through. Even before Scott makes a motion or tenses a muscle, he can tell this is going to stop. Shit, why the hell does he want to stop it now when they've already gotten this heated?! If he wanted to talk, he should've done it while they were fighting, or opened his mouth before he kissed him! ... That's his frustration and teenage hormones talking. Grumble grumble... fine.]
What. [Not gonna work well if he's still pounced atop Scott like this. With a final irked huff, Bakugo pushes backwards, knees dragging off Scott's leg and the mat, arms bouncing away with a hard flex, and down he plops on his butt, sitting to the mutant's side with his hands resting behind him and his knees loosely crossed legged.
Yeah, Scott wanted to talk about something; that's why he asked to meet. Probably should've had the talk instead of crossing fists, but someone needed to work up to it. Bakugo knows the feeling himself... He's the one who dragged Midoriya out to fight him. And to talk. It was the only way he'd been able to vent everything built up inside.]
[As Bakugo fully shuffles off him, Scott starts pulling himself up, abs flexing underneath that tank top until he's fully sitting upright and next to his friend. Yeah, this kind of sucks, just sitting like this, and he only has himself to blame. But as the heat dissipates, it's easier to let himself focus, hands settled loosely in his lap as he looks at his friend with a no bullshit expression.
Now or never, right?
It's maybe one of the more serious faces he's made since they've started hanging out. Well, considering the topic he wants to get into, it probably makes sense. He asked Bakugo out for a spar because that was easy and he wanted to see if anything felt weird, but it didn't. And he's glad.
He breathes in, slowly.]
I just. [...This is actually harder than he thought it'd be. He's never really had this sort of conversation before.] ...Wanted to talk and shit.
[It's hot. Not only from the sparring. Sweat drips off his chin and leaks down his back, chest rising and falling with heavier breaths. Scott's moving and that soaked tanktop sticks to his abs in all the right places for a few wet patches. Damn, not helping his issues at all. Naked skin, flushed collarbones, a damn shirt might as well wipe off Scott's body in his mind like one of those stupid sexy flash games. So quickly comes memories of Scott's appearance under his clothes.
Is this gonna be a round of blueballs? Or is Scott really holding onto a topic far more important?
A serious expression flickers across the mutant's face and Bakugo narrows his eyes, arousal taking a frosty breeze despite himself. He's never had difficult switching his focus when he's invested or it's needed.
I just-
And he stops. Ugh, come on. If he wasn't ready, they should've finished the wrestling match... turned... uh... sexy grinding making out. Bakugo presses his lips together, brows furrow, a brie-]

Fuck that hurt, bastard, that flash of his own competitiveness spiking as he looks at his opponent and twists himself so that he can counter and break out of the grapple.
At least his forearm is pulled away from a strong grip, using that momentum to try and sweep the leg his friend is still standing on.]

Date: 3/12/25 22:08 (UTC)Bakugo snarls when Scott twists himself, having to release his arms so he doesn't get yanked into his body at close range. Even with his strength, body slamming the other in a wrestling suplex isn't his preference.
He drops his foot to the ground again, bracing himself just in time for Scott's sweep to slam into his leg. It's enough to rock him up onto the braced on and he hops to the side once, twice, to avoid getting tripped up, breaking his hold on Scott's upper body in the process.]
no subject
Date: 3/13/25 00:15 (UTC)There's a small smirk, one that briefly twitches at the corner of his mouth despite everything, before he presses on, closing that short distance between them and now using his free arms to feint an attack on the left before swinging more with a jab on the right, aiming for Bakugo's chest as he keeps pressing on an offensive now.
Best defense is a good offense? Besides, he can only get so far through guarding and trying to counter. Not to mention there's that additional spike of blood pumping through his veins as he keeps at it with his friend, a spark of red glinting behind his glasses as well as sweat beading across his forehead. He's sure that they might actually draw a couple of interested people with how they're fighting, despite their low rank, but he doesn't need assholes gawking at them. It's why he picked this closed off room for just the two of them.]
no subject
Date: 3/13/25 01:58 (UTC)Bakugo doesn't need other people staring at them, always opting to spar with others in the closed rooms. He likes being able to focus on his opponent and nothing else. Though this time, his focus slips into other thoughts. A flicker of red sparking behind Scott's shades, the twitch of his lips in a smirk, a lick of sweat wandering down his cheek. Fucking details he wouldn't have thought much of before, but now twitter on his peripheral. Stupid sexy bastard.
Both arms occupied? ... SURPRISE HEADBUTT!!]
no subject
Date: 3/13/25 22:16 (UTC)Another punch. Another feint. And then--]
Ow, fuck! Asshole--
[No holding back his shouting this time, because fuck that hurt. An extremely hard head meeting his own (who has the harder head? who knows) and it's enough to get Scott to stagger in his movements, the mutant stepping back a couple steps from the teen.]
no subject
Date: 3/13/25 23:09 (UTC)THOCK!!
-right there! Bakugo's headbutted people before. And no! It never feels "good" when he does it! Pain blooms in his head, his skin reddens behind his bangs, but there's a maniac grin spreading across his face as he blitzes through starlight blinking behind his eyes and shoves himself right into Scott's personal space. One shoulder into his chest, and a leg swiftly hooking and jerking behind the mutant's calves!
Fully intending to dump his back right onto the floor and go for the pin!]
no subject
Date: 3/14/25 00:39 (UTC)Still calling him a bastard in his mind. Stupid attractive bastard that's currently grappling him to the mats, their bodies flushed together.
As the seconds tick down for the pin, Scott struggles against the well-muscled teen, slick muscle sliding against one another and he's still recovering enough from the blow to at least not get hard from that, but unfortunately, he can also feel victory slowly slip from his grasp as he's unable to get the right angle to dislodge Bakugo from his limbs. If he really wanted to cheat, he could probably tug his glasses off, but he didn't say powers this time and not at this close proximity. Not unless he had his visor.
So, he just pushes and tugs, trying to gain some ground, but...]
no subject
Date: 3/14/25 01:48 (UTC)Shit, as much as he'd like to shove together and really trap Scott into the ground, Bakugo knows exactly what part of his body's thinking like that! He'll... fuck, he'll deal with that in a minute!
One hand plastered onto Scott's shoulder, his other arm's free to try and fend off those attempted blows to dislodge him. Jerks from side to side rock his body, but he counter balances with tilts and jerks, wrestling Scott onto his back again each time. Until finally he manages to grapple the other boy's hand and jails it to the mat above his head, ending up with his body kneeling and leaning over Scott's, muscular chest heaving with hard breaths, red eyes locked onto the mutant's sweat-slick face.]
One... two...
no subject
Date: 3/14/25 20:58 (UTC)Damn muscular bastard. How many times has he internally said that now? A lot. Scott would just say that the boot fits--
And Bakugo really has him flat and secured on the ground, his own loud breaths panting out and mixing with the other teen's as he stares up at those red eyes (even more red because of his glasses? no that's not how that works but). He looks mildly grumpy, as he doesn't like losing, and petty enough that he doesn't count at all because hell no. He's going to only admit defeat until the time has passed.
Scott's legs press up and his hand struggles in the other teen's grip, muscles bulging as he tries one last time with all his strength to break his hold, but Bakugo is stronger than him. And he has the advantage.]
no subject
Date: 3/15/25 00:25 (UTC)He cuts off before final count, eyes widening as Scott suddenly heaves up a last attempt. Legs surge against his knee and shin, shoulder shoving at his hand, almost lifting him clean off the ground for a scant second.]
Down. [SHOVE!! Three thuds and Bakugo's got Scott right back flush to the ground, a panting sweating mess with very exposed shoulders and arms and a hell of a flushed look on his face. As if that doesn't remind him of other moments between them. From a blizzard-swamped cabin to windows fogging in a car.]
no subject
Date: 3/15/25 18:19 (UTC)Why did his body think that was way hotter than it should be? A part of him wants to fight back, but another part of him, that's just as strong, basically equal, wants to just let this spar go to Bakugo as he stares up at the panting teen. He's equally flushed, sweat rolling down his face, and it's probably because Bakugo still has him pinned that Scott doesn't try to surge up and kiss him, just like this.
Instead, he continues looking up at Bakugo with that exposed, sweaty face, lips parted as breathes push out of his chest. He's no longer fighting, and honestly just trying to stop his body from reacting too much. He... he still wants to talk and all that too, but gazing up at the other hero like this, Scott's mind barely registers anything else besides noting just how fucking attractive and hot he looks. How stupidly warm his chest gets when he's hanging out with him.]
no subject
Date: 3/15/25 20:28 (UTC)Paying way too much attention to Scott's presence beneath him. From lines of sweat dripping down his face to the tension in his neck thanks to a damn swallow to the way his chest rises and falls with bellowing breaths. Scott looks too damn good when he's hot and breathless like this. Shit, he really should focus on the spar, not on... how much he wants to just lean down and... ah hell with it.
Bakugo's the one who drops down, head tilting and lips finding Scott's own in a heated kiss. The taste of sweat instantly bites on his lips and tongue, not giving a shit whether his body's so eager to respond to his budding interest since the start. Spar's over, he won, he can move onto something else. Scott said he wanted to talk about something, but he'll have to wait unless he wants to try shoving his words between their lips. There's nothing else to "blame" this on now. It's pure and honest attraction and want.]
no subject
Date: 3/16/25 18:57 (UTC)He knows he should at least give some sort of attempt to push away, so that he can get his words out, be sort of responsible and rational, but instead of doing any of that, his free hand moves up to grab the back of spiky blonde hair, his grip burying almost roughly into his strands. And unlike the last few grapples, there's no effort to push him away or fight, now fully intending to keep him pressed close as he deepens their kiss, tongue sliding back into that familiar mouth as that heat between them grows.
...Okay, he probably should interrupt this soon, because he definitely wants to talk before they do anything more than this. But fuck, man, why can't that part of him just shut up so that he can enjoy this?? Can't he just have horny brain right now?? Instead of stupid responsible brain???
Give him a few seconds to enjoy this more. Scott thinks it's a reasonable compromise anyway, the mutant making another rough noise from the base of his throat as he slides their tongues together. Maybe a part of him wants to at least pin his tongue down but that would be petty right--]
no subject
Date: 3/17/25 00:57 (UTC)There's plenty more time to spar, there's more time to get stronger, hell there's more time to do this too. Whatever, nothing says it has to go beyond that. A hand grabs the back of his head, fingers dig into his hair, Scott's rougher grip threatens to catch Bakugo's breath in his throat, and he likes it. No attempt to shove him off or pull his head away. It's all welcome and wanting. Hauling him close even if he wanted to pull back.
Mmmn, tongue. Pushing past his lips and shoving between his teeth with a low growl and groan. Fuck, that feels good. He lifts his own and tangles it with Scott's immediately, trying to wrestle his slick muscle into the juicy floor of his jaw. Maybe they should stop, but that'd be responsible, and apparently sexual heat doesn't give a shit about being responsible. He breaks the kiss for a split second, enough to suck a breath in, then dives right back to Scott's mouth.
Go ahead and try to wrestle his tongue; Bakugo's up for the challenge, already twisting his tongue around the mutant's in attempt to shove it down. Kind of like the rest of him, still pinning Scott to the mat. As if their mouths are the final attempt Scott can make to try for one last victory.]
no subject
Date: 3/17/25 22:59 (UTC)He might've had a chance to begin the Conversation when the blonde pulled away just briefly, but it's back to sparring, except, just with their mouths this time.
Truly, any word that started to form from Scott is immediately silenced as Bakugo barrels straight down and pushes their mouths together once more. It's rough, but familiar and it's so easy to just turn his head, angling his mouth so they can slide their tongues even deeper against each other. Pressing, stroking-- to the point that a pleased and rough little groan emits from Scott as his hand clenches and unclenches in his hair. Nothing about this is really clean, but Scott never cared about that, barely paying attention how saliva escapes the corner of his mouth as he tries to pin Bakugo's own slick muscle down to his jaw.
Maybe he can cheat a little and move his hand from spiky hair to the back of his nape, stroking the sweaty skin there.]
no subject
Date: 3/18/25 01:26 (UTC)Bakugo's eyes flutter shut as a hand slides down to his nape, caressing over sweat-slick skin and scrunching up into the jagged rim of his hairline buried under a few shorter layers. It's enough to earn a shudder down his spine, mouth breaking the kiss long enough to suck in a few molten breaths against Scott's lips. His knee slips off the mutant's thigh and thuds into the mat, shin slowly gliding downward as Bakugo starts melting out of that martial pin.
...and probably intending to go into another kind.]
no subject
Date: 3/19/25 01:32 (UTC)So.
His hand draws itself away from Bakugo's nape, dropping lightly on the mat as he forces himself to push those first words out.]
Bakugo, hey, wait...
[Scott's already regretting getting Bakugo to stop, so comfortably warm and eager to just continue this, but he knows that he'll just end up regretting things more if he lets all this go on without talking about things first. And shit, it feels like something a girl would do or whatever, but communication is something actually important to him. Not just as a X-Man leader, but... just in general. Especially in a place like this.]
no subject
Date: 3/19/25 02:35 (UTC)What. [Not gonna work well if he's still pounced atop Scott like this. With a final irked huff, Bakugo pushes backwards, knees dragging off Scott's leg and the mat, arms bouncing away with a hard flex, and down he plops on his butt, sitting to the mutant's side with his hands resting behind him and his knees loosely crossed legged.
Yeah, Scott wanted to talk about something; that's why he asked to meet. Probably should've had the talk instead of crossing fists, but someone needed to work up to it. Bakugo knows the feeling himself... He's the one who dragged Midoriya out to fight him. And to talk. It was the only way he'd been able to vent everything built up inside.]
no subject
Date: 3/19/25 23:29 (UTC)Now or never, right?
It's maybe one of the more serious faces he's made since they've started hanging out. Well, considering the topic he wants to get into, it probably makes sense. He asked Bakugo out for a spar because that was easy and he wanted to see if anything felt weird, but it didn't. And he's glad.
He breathes in, slowly.]
I just. [...This is actually harder than he thought it'd be. He's never really had this sort of conversation before.] ...Wanted to talk and shit.
no subject
Date: 3/20/25 00:47 (UTC)Is this gonna be a round of blueballs? Or is Scott really holding onto a topic far more important?
A serious expression flickers across the mutant's face and Bakugo narrows his eyes, arousal taking a frosty breeze despite himself. He's never had difficult switching his focus when he's invested or it's needed.
I just-
And he stops. Ugh, come on. If he wasn't ready, they should've finished the wrestling match... turned... uh... sexy grinding making out. Bakugo presses his lips together, brows furrow, a brie-]
HAA?! Then why'd you call me out here to fight?!
[-or do that.]
