Thinking of adding onto this at some point
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.
(Edit: spelling)
(Side Note: I could keep going, I really could... but if I did this would be stupidly long.)
C.Hawks: Oh, don't worry. I can cover lunch no problem! What is everyone in the mood for?
*two new underground heros walk in*
(Daybreak) Zarah: oh hi, nice meeting you both :). This my freind/hero partner Big bir- I mean Nightwing
(Nightwing) Raphael : sigh...Hello, hope you all having a nice day. We wer-*gets cut off by Zarah*
(Daybreak) Zarah: -We come from Latin America. We was wondering if u can help us navigate japan, we are new here...
(Nightwing)Raphael: Sorry, apparently our mission had us going across the globe this time. Hehe...
C.Hawks: Hello there! New to Japan eh? Sure I can show you the ropes, just hope you can keep up!
F.Hawks: Heyo, nice to meet new faces in Japan. Latin America you say? What’s it like over there if you don’t mind me asking. Oh, and what quirks do the two of you possess?
*F.Hawks smiles and hugs Sorano back*
F.Hawks: Thank you, Sorano. You make me smile. Let's get back to our game why don't we? It's your turn after all.
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.
So we all know that Canon Hawks loves sweet coffee yeah?
But like, why?
Here is my theory.
We know as a kid, Hawks was neglected and would more than likely go days without food. Meaning anything he has had, would more than likely be bitter or stale. That is, until he gets taken by the commission. We know they trained him since he was young, and so what do kids love? Sweets! I can only assume they rewarded him with treats and candy whenever he did well, and once he was old enough, he would drink coffee to stay awake. Though when he first had it, they gave it to him black and without sugar. I would like to think that he is reminded of his childhood by the bitter taste it leaves, and he flat out rejects it. So the commission makes him sweet coffee, and he is in love. From then on, he only ever drank sweet sugary coffee because he would be reminded of how good of a job he did, or that he is no longer the sad little kid he used to be.
When Skeptic points out that Hawks freaked out when he almost got black coffee, it just points out more how much he hates the bitter taste it brings into his mouth. And any time we see Hawks eat or drink, it's usually savory or sweet foods, never bitter and salty foods.
Hawks, sweet tooth? Developed.
It's like that one meme.
*Hawks drinks coffee*
Hawks: It's like a reward.
I've been sick this past week so I decided to write some Hawks fluff. Slightly self indulgent.
It was only 7 in the morning when Hawks was getting ready for work. You were still asleep in bed, which Hawks found odd. Normally you would have been awake by now, but today you were still under the covers, your body slightly shaking. Hawks walked over to you and took in your features, mouth slightly agape as your lips were reddened, skin pale. He took off his glove and felt the top of your head, you were burning up. He frowned slightly before looking at his watch, he still had time. He decided to fly out to the local convenient store and buy a few items then came back home to drop the items off. He laid a kiss a top your forehead before flying off to work.
An hour or so later, you finally wake up, hot and feverish as you blink the sleep away. A chest hurting cought erupted from your throat as you groan in discontent. Looking around you find the room empty and cold, but on the nightstand next to you, you spot a glass of water, a bag, and a note. You pick up the note and read it over, 'Got you some things to combat your sickness, get well soon! -H.' You place the note down and pick up the bag, searching its contents. Some pills, most likely Ibuprofen or Tylenol, a few cans of different soups, and different types of tea. You smiled at the gesture and opened the bottle of pills. You popped two in your mouth and took a sip of water to wash them down. You decided to go about your day normally, every so often taking medicine or making tea. A cold shower helping reduce the fever and you ultimately feeling better.
The sun had finished setting when the front door opens, a voice calling out.
"I'm home!" Hawks' voice rang out.
You turned to greet him, a bowl of soup in hand as you were making your way to the table. Hawks closed the door and took off his boots as he came by to check your temperature. Your fever had gone down greatly, but you still didn't feel 100%. He gave you a sad smile as he sighed, taking a seat by you at the table.
"Feeling better?" He asked.
"I am thanks to you." You commented.
He smiled and took the spoon away from you, feeding you instead. The rest of the night, he dedicated his time taking care of you and treating your sickness. The following morning you woke up before him, as per usual, and worked on making breakfast. A bit of time going by before he woke up and greeted you, sleep still fresh on his face. You greeted him back, a smile on your face, and you feeling way better than yesterday. He seemed to notice, and perked up at your cheery mood. He set up the table and waited, both of you enjoying breakfast together and ready to start your day.
Agreed ❤
A birb appreciation post 🥺
F.Hawks: Not if I have anything to say about it. Hah! Double blue! I'm so going to win, just you wait!

I guess I should make this announcement due to the number of asks I have been getting. But anyway, I have the freedom to choose what I answer, and there are some I will not answer on this blog, just because they ask are very specific or explicit. And because minors have access to media, and some, do have access to my account and a majority of others. Now I don't see them as "very explicit", but others may and I just rather be on the safer side of things for now.
Now then, I will be fine to answer those on my other blog/account, Hawksinabowl, because that one is meant to be more 18+ with the rp, requests, asks. So if you do want me to answer asks that are very explicit or very specific. Any type of 18+ asks/requests/submissions can be posted on that on that account. I would prefer to keep Hawksinacup, more... wacky shenanigans, and fun. Hope you all understand.
Also please note, that me, getting to asks/resquests are slowed down due to having to take care of a puppy.
Whenever I re-watch the 3rd MHA movie, I like to think that Hawks is fast, but like, inhumanely fast. So fast that he can dodge literal gunfire and take down the enemies with ease. BECAUSE HE FUCKING DOES! He moves so fast that he is unharmed as he fights on the ground and still keeps going. Without his wings btw, because his feathers are busy searching, so ye. Hawks is fast, but like, inhumanely fast that it's scary.
Au where Keigo ended up like his father, whilst Touya ended up a pro hero. Keigo had the villain name of Hawks, and Touya had the hero name of Dabi. Hawks was considered un-stoppable, as no one could catch him. One day, after a bank heist, Hawks got into a scuffle with Dabi, in which the fight led to an allyway. Hawks was winning until Dabi pushed himself and exterted too much blue flame at Hawks. Hawks managed to dodge and laughed at Dabi's attempt, only to stop as he realizes that Dabi hurt himself. Hawks lands and moves near Dabi, visible concern on his face. He asks if he is alright, to which Dabi rebuttles about the fake sympathy. Hawks retorts about how he is a villain, not a heartless monster, and proceeds to leave the bags of money he stole and secretly wisks Dabi away to his secret hideout to patch Dabi up. Dabi realizing that Hawks never keeps the money he steals and that Hawks uses the money on necessities such as food, clothes, etc. After patching up Dabi, Hawks gives him the option to arrest him. Dabi thanks Hawks for patching up his burns, with his lips. Dabi doesnt arrest him, but instead secretly provides for him by letting Hawks move in with him, in which Hawks becomes domesticated and turns into a lethal house husband.
Should I write a Hawks x Reader fanfic? But like, it takes place years after the whole war arc and society is back to normal? Like Hawks is older and his scars are fully healed but visible and hair has grown back to its normal length, with his wings healed. The reader being quirkless (because it’s better than having people very opinionated with whatever quirk the reader has), and a year or two younger than Hawks. Maybe have him 26 or 27 years old. Idk, im tempted, not sure if I should though.
