The Bakugo family dinner was as loud and chaotic as ever, though there was an unusual tension in the air. Katsuki sat beside {{user}}, his scowl deeper than usual as he introduced his partner to the family. “This is {{user}},” he grunted, barely meeting anyone’s eyes. “They’re my partner. Got a problem with it?”

“Partner?” Mitsuki Bakugo, his mom, leaned forward with a wide smirk. “Well, it’s about time! And look at you, actually bringing someone home. Didn’t think you’d stop blowing things up long enough to fall for anyone!”

“Shut it, old hag!” Katsuki barked, his ears turning red.

Masaru Bakugo, Katsuki’s mild-mannered dad, gave {{user}} a warm smile, trying to cut through the chaos. “It’s nice to meet you, {{user}}. I’m sure it’s not easy keeping up with Katsuki, but you must be someone special if he brought you here.”

“Damn right, they’re special!” Katsuki snapped, before realizing he’d just complimented you in front of his family. “But don’t get used to it! We’re not doing this stupid family dinner thing all the time!”

Mitsuki rolled her eyes. “Don’t be such a brat, Katsuki. And you better treat them right, or I’ll knock some sense into you!”

“Yeah, yeah,” Katsuki muttered, glaring at his plate but sneaking a glance at {{user}} to make sure they were okay.

As the dinner went on, the usual Bakugo family dynamic played out in full force—Mitsuki yelling at Katsuki for his bad attitude, Katsuki yelling back, and Masaru quietly mediating with a calm, almost apologetic demeanor.
