Brittle Bones, Little Heart
congrats on the fatherhood, dabi <3
a universe without you would be thoroughly mundane
he has what i have fr
(bonus infodumping🫶)
no because its that they're the fear responses. the todoroki children are all just the fear responses. touya is fight, natsuo is flight, shoto is freeze, and fuyumi is fawn. when you stare down abuse every day you have to react somehow, and they all just developed different methods of coping with it
an attachment formed during childhood could've saved them maybe
au where toya stays part 4 (?). hawks and touya meet at endeavor's agency whether they want to or not heh (some lore in the tags)
Enji, Toya, and the little bird guy
dabi and hawks are both victims of abuse and neglect but while it’s clear that dabi is more traumatized by his father, I’m not sure about hawks like what’s worse, a violent father or a mother who doesn’t protect you and abandons you
New Halloween sketch!
So we got phantom of the opera, the mad hatter, spider man, green goblin, the joker, and harley quinn. I LOVE IT!
Thank you, Horikoshi! 🎃🥰😍❤️
Omg, Gigantomachia is in the background! And he's smiling! T-T RIP my heart!
I'm undooming the Yuri and you can't stop me
Dabihawks is not about what we get in canon (which is close to nothing), it's about the possibilities. It's about dabi being destined to be a hero like his father but becoming a villain and hawks being destined to be a villain like his father but becoming a hero. It's about both of them being amazed by endeavor and for it to save one of them and destroy the other. It's about touya and keigo who could've been best friends but dabi and hawks ending up enemies.
I'm still mad at horikoshi for dropping this art and not giving us a full-on gut-wrecking childhood friends backstory. The Touya reveal could've been even more heartbreaking (not that it is not already very heartbreaking) if hawks was counted in. Like just imagine having one and only friend that understands you, that lives through a horrible training like you and is your only source of comfort, and then one day your handler tells you with a cold voice that this person just died. No further explanations, no more informations, and then you're all alone again trying to become one of the best hero in this fucked up society.
And then during an undercover mission you notice that one of the villains in the League has the exact same eyes as your long lost friend (because the eyes are the only thing you remember), and you can't stop thinking about the possibility of him being alive but it's destroying you to think that he maybe became what you hate. But you can't help feeling drawn to him, until the betrayal and then BAM, revelation : your friend is alive but you can't save him.
And then Hawks has to live with the fact that the only friend he ever had is bound to be killed by his idol, and with the fact that this said idol is the one that hurt his friend on a so deep level that his friend doesn't even remember what it's like to feel a warm embrace or a comfort feeling. That his idol is exactly like his own father who violated him at such a young age. That the first person he wanted to save is unsavable. That the one he wanted to be a hero for is unsavable.
This would've been SO GOOD.
