i want to write this fic that's like — cowboy bakugou, late 1800's style LOL

with him as a leeeeetle bit older, spent his life in cattle drives, wanted to be a marshal at some point, but his health and injuries from his younger days made it hard 🥺 he doesn't settle down, doesn't have any kids though he's in his mid-30's, and — one day he gets a letter that toshinori dies.

it's really supposed to be deku's responsibility, but only god knows where he is. probably got the news and can't accept it, too chicken-shit to face it. yeah, it tears katsuki up inside, too, but someone has to stick around in musutafu and help figure out his estate, the ranch.

help figure out you.

toshinori married in his late age, an ad he put out on the paper. bought you, as katsuki has always said, though the older man would always just smile wryly at the comment, look around at his extensive acreage, his horses and cattle, and he'd say,

"i only want someone to share this with, young man, do you understand?"

and he didn't. he really, really didn't. especially because you were younger than even bakugou, fresh-faced, hardly knew how to cook anything decent or how to ride a horse. waste of money, in katsuki's eyes.

but when he arranges his feelings right, he meets you on the ranch and — you're scared, because you're now a widowed woman and everyone and their mama wants a piece. you have the money, now, to upkeep the place but you've never done it by yourself. have learned more in the few years you've been married but it's a big place, a big responsibility.

and when katsuki hears that the bank wants to take it all from you, he's all, "over my dead fuckin' body."

it's really all deku's responsibility, since he and toshinori were closer, but you need someone now. and if bakugou has to stay in the house with you and help with the ranch, make sure no one comes to bother you—

then he'll do it. because that's what the old man would've wanted.

#HE'S GRUMPY !!!#dealing with all his own grief from all might's death 🥺#he comes to visit the first day and you invite him in and he has to excuse himself to the bathroom #because he's GONE and bakugou HATES IT #hates that he wasnt here #hates that DEKU isnt here #hates that the leeches in town are trying to dismantle everything toshinori built #just for profit #but what he hates MOST OF ALL #is YOU #when you light all the candles in the house after the sun falls #when you cook for him and it's much better than he remembered #when you peek into his room to tell him goodnight #when you're in his dreams doing the same — only you're inviting yourself into his bed #and he's letting you #WAAHHH #grumpy older cowboy I HATE HIM #blast from the past: hiatus q #✿ willow writes #✿ thoughts: bakugou #✿ theme: cowboy bakugou
