I Haven't Watched Season 7 Just Yet, But I Am Fully Caught Up With The Manga, And Like... I Don't Think

Fanon looks over to Talons as he sighs. He whispers back to her.

"Canon has always been alone, plus he isn't like us. Well, he doesn't partake in any bird things. In all honesty, I'm still on the fence if he has any actual bird traits, or if his quirk is just him having wings."

Canon easily overhears the conversation as looks at the two.

C.Hawks: I've already told you, Fanon, my quirk is a mutation from my parent's quirk. Neither have wings nor the abilities I do, so my features and wings are unique. The only thing I can remember is having my- actually... I don't even remember that much.

Canon avoids revealing more than he has and refuses to go into his past. 'He's dead, you're Hawks now, a hero!' Canon thought as he looked away, staring in front of him, looking at the mundane walls.

C.Hawks: I think I'm gonna go, for now, get some fresh air.

Canon rises and puts on his jacket and flight gear. He leaves and takes to the skies, wanting nothing more than to be alone. He this about his mom during his flight, and subconsciously flies to the home provided to her by the commission. He stands in the yard for a bit, before sighing and flying away.

"The name Takami is dead. The name Hawks, is born."

Meanwhile...

Fanon looks at Talon and tries to think of a way to cheer her up.

"Maybe we should dig into that chicken before it gets cold, huh?"

*finishes fluffing up up the pillows and blankets in a circular formation and flutters in. Sees the boys and pats the open spots next to her*

Come rest a bit?

F.Hawks: Nest? Nest. Nest...

C.Hawks: You good, Fanon?

F.Hawks: I'm gonna go rest in the nest. Join if you want, or not.

C.Hawks: Sure... I guess I can try out whatever it is you find enjoyable about this...

F.Hawks: You don't mind if I lay down do you? I reaaally need to stretch, and I feel more comfortable on my stomach when I do so.

C.Hawks: Well, we were invited to sit, so I guess you can?

*Fanon lays down in the nest of pillows and blankets. He stretches his arms legs and wings as he lets out a satisfied yawn.*

F.Hawks: Can one of you preen my wings? It's been a while since I last got them sorted out and it's causing mild discomfort.

*Canon walks over and sits next to you, then looks at Fanon who seems to be very relaxed.*

C.Hawks: hm...

I find it so amusing how fast Hawks can run backwards, especially after falling and hitting his back on the roof of a building rather harshly. Man is zooming, backwards forwards side to side. Hawks is speed. All while controlling his feathers to pick up debris and move them from harming others. 😭😭

Left, right? Ambidextrous!

Anyone else love that even when Hawks is relaxed his eyes remain sharp and predatorial? Man's always alert even when he is relaxed. That carefree attitude of a man who could kill you in an instant if he felt like it? Hot.

My baby is standing his ground

Boku no Hero Academia || Hawks (Keigo Takami) Episode 153

Whoever gets got first loses then! I got... Red!

To All the Hawks: Your personalities make me think you'd be very good with kids. Thoughts on kids? Maybe taking a little orphan girl under your....wing?

In unison: Kids?

C.Hawks: I always enjoy making kids happy, and putting a smile on their face is just another joy of being a hero!

F.Hawks: I don't mind kids. As long as they aren't the type to constantly put everything they touch in their mouths, then I'm fine with them.

C.Hawks: Though, I don't know if I would have the time to watch over a kid while I'm working. I feel like they would be very lonely since I'd be gone all day.

F.Hawks: Ah you and your excuses. I don't mind taking a chick under my wing. Plus if her original parents didn't want them, I sure as Hell do. Birds of a feather have to stick together after all.

C.Hawks: Oh sure, play the guilt trip card. Very mature of you fanon.

F.Hawks: Look bud, are you gonna help or bail on me like your mother did when she gave you to the commission?

C.Hawks: Okay ouch first of all. Second, fine. But your watching her while I'm at work.

F.Hawks: Yessir!

C.Hawks: I've got to admit, they are very cute.

F.Hawks: That they are.

It's 5 in the morning and instead of going to bed like I should have 6 hours ago, I made myself stir fry

I spent the literal day reading a dabihawks fanfic, and I am so invested in it. FUCCKKK

It's called War Prize, on Ao3, by Kayrikka.

It's a fucking must read.

My dog scratched my arm and left two gnarly scars.

Now I think about if you get into an argument with Hawks and you are trying to walk away and Hawks tries to stop you by grabbing your arm but you try to pull your arm away and his talons end up scratching you and draw blood. Then he looks at your pained expression and then his hand in horror of what he just did and apologizes before leaving. And then the next time you see him, you notice he clipped his talons and filed them to dull nails. He looks at your now bandaged arm and can't stop thinking about how he hurt the one person he truly loved.

RANT ABOUT HAWKS

Thinking about Keigo's wings, and how a lot of people like to base Keigo's wings on a Red-Tailed Hawk. The average wingspan of RT-Hawks are just under 5 feet, and so if we scale it up by about 3.1x (taking the average size of a TRH and matching it as close as possible to Keigo's height.) Then multiply that by the average wingspan, (Lets say 4ft 2inch). Keigo would have a wingspan of around 13-15ft, depending on the size, so about 14ft.

From what we have seen, Keigo soars in the sky, like a Hawk would do. Understanding how a Hawk is able to soar, you would know that it conserves a lot of energy by doing so. We see that Keigo gets bored while flying during work, as its takes so little energy that it would quite literally not require him to concentrate on flying at all. (Theoretically, he could soar the skies effortlessly without even thinking, second nature type shit.) This allows him to use his eyes to scout the ground below, or shift his body during flight.

We also know that Keigo states that he is not powerful, and relies on speed and agility. Keigo can also manipulate his feathers to sharpen them, use them as blades, sense things around him, and pick people or object up. We know his feathers are incredibly strong, specifically the calamus, or quil. If we take that into account, we can theorize that Keigo could probably lift close to a ton with his feathers. We know this because when Hawks rescues the civilians in the collasping building in the nomu fight, he is carrying well over 20 adults (possibly 30-60), the average weight of a human being anywhere from 120-200 lbs. Even as a child, Keigo has saved adults during the high-speed car accident, meaning Keigo's feathers have always been strong.

Knowing all of this, we can safely say, I have no idea where this is going other than Keigo is stupidly fast, smart, and strong. Even if we only see two aspects, his speed and wit, we also get bits of how powerful his wings are.

BY THE WAY, Keigo is stupidly resiliant... He lands on his back, tumbling and recovered within the instant, adjusting his wings for balance as he runs at an inhumane speed, not only backwords, but squated, or knees bent close to 90°, any other hero would more than likely have taken the fall, stayed down for a good while then recovered.

Keigo is also impulsive, manipulative and aware. He can read others better than they think, he states how he is impulsive and can't control himself when he wants something. He snuck his way into Twice's brain along with 95% of the PLF. Keigo is so casual about how he presents himself, that people never notice how alert he is.

Oh and and and, THIS IS IMPORTANT. KEIGOS WINGS ARENT CONSTANTLY SENSITIVE. We knows this because canonically, kids and adults touch and mess with his wings when he deals with his fans. We only see his feathers detect sounds, vibrations, etc. when he concentrates to do so. Meaning he needs a lot of brainpower to "listen in" through his feathers. If they were constantly sensitive, then he wouldn't be able to use them during combat, rescue, or near others.

Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.
