Out of Character
yes ✔︎ ask first | see notes ✱ no ✘
backtagging ✔︎ If it's been > 1 month since it was tagged, I assume it's dropped.
threadhopping: network ✔︎ threads/logs ✱ (touch base first)
fourthwalling: Generally, no. Open to discussion for exceptions.
spoilers: minor ✔︎ major ✱ (touch base first) I prefer to consume content for CR.
negative cr: While OOC communication is always good, I require that for negative CR.
descriptive violence/horror: I'm usually comfortable writing at my character's canon levels. I still appreciate a heads up all the time.
explicit sex: Generally no. Once I have gotten to know & trust a writer, I will consider it.
In Character
yes ✔︎ ask first | see notes ✱ no ✘
casual touch ✱
physical affection: Katsuki isn't a particularly affectionate person. Some casual touch with friends and people he knows happens, but he may just as well shove off the arm around his shoulders as accept it. If he doesn't want to be touched, he makes it clear.
casual low level violence ✔︎ explosions ✔︎ fighting while injured ✔︎ minor injuries ✔︎ sparring ✔︎ major injuries ✱ srs altercations ✱ temporary death ✱ killing others ✘ permanent death ✘
physical violence: Bakugo's usually the one bringing explosions. He's a hero-in-training with a provisional license. He's used to violence and comfortable with it. He's comfortable with fighting and also uses it sometimes to process things emotionally. That said, as a hero, he draws a line and won't kill people. Capture tape is your friend. As is knocking people out with explosions.
age-appropriate ✔︎ flirting ✔︎ crushes ✱ dating ✱ romance ✱ priority ✘
romance & sex: Good luck. First things first, romance and sex aren't a priority for Katsuki. That's being a hero. He likely won't notice flirting, and he won't care about interest from people he doesn't care about. Gotta be friends first.
attention to detail ✔︎ body language ✔︎ social cues ✔︎ using abilities on Bakugo ✱
psychic abilities: Bakugo's quirk isn't a psychic power (beyond psychically controlling his explosions). However, he pays attention to others to figure out how their abilities work or what tactics they'll use in a fight. He's vulnerable to psychic abilities, depending on what they are. Plot with me before using those.
explosions ✔︎
magic: Bakugo's quirk is explosion. He sweats a nitroglycerin-like substance from the palms of his hands, and he can control when his sweat explodes. This ability lets him do everything from fly to create a tornado and missile like impact. See his app for more details. He's willing to engage others who use magic, but lets plot it out.
constitution ✔︎ explosive sweat ✔︎ pain tolerance ✔︎ basic medical care ✱ mostly like other humans ✱
medical information: Katsuki is human with a quirk. The skin on the palms of his hands is thicker than usual, due to his quirk, and he only has two bones, not three, in his pinky toes. His body is able to withstand, while in pain, explosions in his bloodstream. Upon arrival, he's recently had field open heart surgery (and lung surgery), and someone used their body as the thread. So that might register to someone with powers.
Content Warnings & Sensitive Subjects
series & background cws ✘ character's sensitive topics ✱
✘ attempted genocide ✘ bullying ✘ child abuse ✘ child soldiers ✘ human experimentation ✘ manipulation ✘ mass murder ✘ murder ✘ violence ✘ violence against children ✘
hurting his friends ✱ villainous behavior ✱
sensitive subjects: Bakugo—make that Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight—is a hero, so when he sees villainy, he steps on in. That habit will stick around in Folkmore. Further, he's actually protective of his friends, so going after them is a good way to get him to go after you.
