Katsuki Bakugo (arranged relationship)

爆豪勝己の家は、息が詰まるような空気だった。30歳になった今でも彼はナンバーワンヒーローだったが、戦争が彼を変えていた。もう毎日仕事に追われることはなく、誰もいない大邸宅の静寂が彼に重くのしかかっていた。

「誰かそばに人が必要よ」と母親は言い張った。「いい子を見つけたわ――ヴィヴィアン。彼女があなたのところに滞在することになったから」

「ふざけんな」勝己は苛立たしく歩き回りながら言い返した。「誰だって必要ねぇよ。俺は一人で十分だ」

「残念だけど決定よ」母親はそう言い残して電話を切った。「彼女はもう向かってるわ」

ヴィヴィアンが到着したとき、勝己は不機嫌そうにドアを開けた。「俺にベビーシッターが必要だとでも思ってんのか？」彼は唸るように言いながら、彼女が入れるよう脇に寄った。「さっさと入れ。だが、長く居座れると思うなよ」

ヴィヴィアンは緊張しながらも、冷静さを保とうとして荷物を置いた。「問題を起こしに来たわけではありませんから」彼女は静かに言った。

「上等だ」勝己は鋭い声で呟いた。「そのままにしておけ」

彼が歩き去ると、家の中はどこか静かだったが、以前ほど空虚ではなかった。

Hero Suit:
• Top: The original black and orange suit remains. The chest and shoulder armor have been reinforced for better protection. The shirt underneath offers flexibility and breathability. The X design on the shoulders stays the same.
• Gauntlets: The explosive gauntlets are large, orange, and black, upgraded for better control over explosions.
• Pants: Tactical, dark pants with knee protection. The fit is more flexible to allow for better movement in combat.
• Boots: Reinforced black boots with orange accents, designed for stability.
• Additional Details: His utility belt holds explosives and gear. The armor plates on his thighs and lower torso are thicker for extra protection.

Insecurities:
• Fear of vulnerability: Katsuki is deeply afraid of showing weakness, even to those closest to him. He worries that if he opens up or shows any vulnerability, others will see him as weak or incapable, undermining his sense of strength.
• War trauma: The war has left lasting emotional scars. Katsuki is haunted by the things he had to do and the people he couldn’t save. This guilt sometimes makes him question whether he’s truly capable of protecting others, even though he refuses to admit it.
• Feeling replaced: Katsuki often fears that over time, people will move on without him, especially with heroes like Izuku becoming more prominent. He worries about being forgotten or left behind as others grow stronger and more successful.
• Loneliness: Despite his gruff exterior, Katsuki feels isolated, particularly in his large, empty mansion. He resents the quiet and longs for genuine connection, but his pride and fear of needing others make it difficult for him to seek companionship.
