And maybe he wasn’t ethically inclined to let those UA kids in the way of danger, but there were only maybe 20 kids in that class and they were already in their teens. They had teachers to protect them and a couple months of training under their belts. If he disobeyed the Commission, it would be hundreds of little kids–10 and under type little–getting hurt, with nobody there to defend them. Nobody on their side but themselves.
He was the only person who could prevent that.
They’ll find a way out for you too, someday.
…It was a nice thought. To think that he did enough good in his prefecture that the people he protected would protect him in turn. He knew it was a silly thought, a stupid thought… but it was still a nice one.
That didn’t mean he dared to hope.
Currently just starting the editing process of this chapter. Uh, go find the fic on ao3. Some tags to help you find it are the dabi/hawks tag, Canon Rewrite, It Gets Worse Before It Gets Better, and Slow Burn or Eventual Romance. Beware that it'll have some dark topics in the future so mind the warnings and any future tags added.
Hawks: We’re having a moment, aren’t we?
Dabi: If by 'a moment' you mean me not wanting to strangle you for the first time since we met, then I guess we are.
Dabi: I love you. Hawks, not paying attention: What was that? Dabi: I said I’m selling you to the zOo-
Hawks: Are you busy? Dabi: Yes. Hawks: Cool, listen to this...
Hawks, talking about Dabi: WHAT THE FUCK I WAS ARGUING WITH THEM AND I SAID “OOH YOU WANNA KISS ME SO BAD” AND GUESS WHAT? THEY DID. THEY KISSED ME. WHAT THE FUCK WHAT DO I DO.
Mirko: You need a hobby. Hawks: I have a hobby! Mirko: Fawning over Dabi isn’t a hobby.
Hawks, staring upwards: So, Dabi broke up with me… haha… Mirko: Why are you looking up? Hawks: I need to cry, but my foundation was 48 dollars!
Dabi: Hawks and I are no longer dating. Hawks: Dabi, that’s a horrible way of telling people we’re married.
Hawks, throwing his head into Dabi's lap: Tell me I'm pretty! Dabi, lovingly stroking his hair: You're pretty fucking annoying, that's what you are.
Hawks, at Dabi: You're my significant other. Dabi: Yeah I am! Hawks, at Tokoyami: You're my child. Tokoyami: Yes boss. Hawks, at Endeavor: You're my bitch. Endeavor: Yeah I am- wait, what? Hawks, at Mirko: My bestie. Mirko: Naturally. Hawks, at Shigaraki: HA, GAY! Shigaraki: Fuck you.
Hawks: Hey, Dabs, what do you think it would be like if we had kids? Dabi: What would it be like? Inconvenient, mostly. Hawks: No, I mean, what would they be like, the kids? You ever think about it? Dabi: Can't really say I have. Hawks: You know, for someone as eccentric as yourself, you can be boring as fuck sometimes. Dabi: Sorry, birdy. For what it's worth, I'm picturing them now. A boy and a girl. Two perfect little freaks of nature raised by people who've clearly got no business bringin' up anybody.
Dabi: Pros and cons of dating me. Dabi: Pros. You'll be the cute one. Dabi: Cons. Holy shit, where do I begin-
Hawks: Yeah, a partner sounds nice, but a supreme enemy you can make out with in secret sometimes sounds a lot more hardcore.
Dabi: Love is weakness and an evolutionary mistake. Toga: You are literally making a Valentine’s day card for Hawks. Dabi, pointing his hot glue gun towards Toga: You’re on thin fucking ice.
Dabi: Fight me! Hawks: gets on one knee and pulls out a ring Hawks: Fight me for the rest of our lives.
Hawks: That was so hot, Dabi. Dabi: I literally called the person who just flirted with you a degenerate dog and told them I hope they get dragged through the streets. Hawks: I'm so in love with you.
at 3am Twice: runs into Dabi’s room and turns on the light Wake up sleepyhead! Dabi: wakes up Dude! Twice: cackles Hawks: sits up from where he was sleeping behind Dabi What the fuck, Twice? Twice: jaw drops Wait WHAT-
Kurogiri: Just be yourself. Dabi: Really? Kurogiri, I have one day to win over Hawks’s parents. Dabi: How long did it take for you guys to like me? Mr. Compress: Couple of weeks. Spinner: Six months. Shigaraki: Jury’s still out. Dabi: See Kurogiri? ‘Just be yourself,’ what kind of garbage advice is that?! (joke's on him, if Hawks's parents actually like him that's probably a red flag)
Hawks: How much did you spend on this date? Dabi: $1400. But all of it's on credit cards, so it's like $5 a month for the next 2,000 years.
Toga, walking into Hawks and Dabi’s bedroom in the middle of the night: I had a bad dream. Hawks: What was it about? Dabi: No, don’t ask her that! Hawks: Why not? Dabi: Cause she’ll answer!
okay I'm feeling much better now that's all thank you goodbye
No because I go through phases of being OBSESSED with Dabihawks kidfics but I never write my own because I have no set AU for a kidfic yet so now I have to create one for my own piece of mind
The problem is that when I do that, I want to incorporate my other ships and THEIR potential kids because in reality other kids from canon characters would be relevant in a storyline. So then I start going off on little mental tangents about other ships and their possible kids and suddenly Dabihawks has 7 kids and Mirko and Fuyumi are giving those kids like 6 cousins and we haven't even touched on Natsuo or Shoto's protentional future kids-
And suddenly I have too many mha OCs (which I never make because I'm plenty interested in the canon character) for me to keep track of and I have to start using apps like foretelling to keep them all in order.
I think I'm going insane guys. And I'm gonna keep going insane because now I'm committed to the bit. Personal Gen 2 AU/headcanons here I come.
I think I’m in hell because I’ve reached yet another dilemma concerning a GIANT DabiHawks fanfic I’m writing when I haven’t even finished figuring out the last one.
See, I have a whole AU where Hawks made a friend during Commission training who became like a pseudo older sister to him who died essentially saving his life and the temptation to add that headcanon to this sort of fix-it AU I’m writing is so tempting like I am metaphorically SALIVATING over the idea. But then I’d have to make a bunch of new decisions that would heavily impact ones I’m already struggling with… grrrrr
It’s frustrating. I’m frustrated. Why can’t writing be easy for once? Smh
istg I’m going CRAZY over this
I could’ve sworn left right up down and on my mother’s life that there was a fic somewhere on ao3 where Hawks was sold to Endeavor to be a baby maker and then he and Touya fell in love in the meantime and like the Todoroki siblings (minus Touya) HATEEED his ass
I’m writing something kinda similar for fun but I have been searching for thag original fic to see if it’s been updated and credit the creator for the inspo for DAYS and I cannot find a TRACE of it. I’ve used both arranged marriage tags and looked through every single one. I’ve specified that it had both DabiHawks and EndHawks. Then I unspecified it and specified that Dabi was a civilian in the fic.
PLEASE if ANYONE has any idea where this fic is HELP ME. I’m going absolutely insane here and I need to at least know it wasn’t some funky ass fever dream. If it was taken down for some reason (if it was then WHAT THE FREAK MAN I WAS ENJOYING THAT FIC???? Like you owe me nothing and have full agency over what fics you keep up but I just want you to know that I’m dying inside just a little) just please. Please tell me you’ve seen it. Tell me you know what I’m talking about. PLEASE.
this has got to be the funniest shit i've seen this year and I need to make sure I keep seeing this every time I see my own page OH MY GOSH
this idea came to me when my blood sugar was low, i’m aware it’s stupid but bear with me
could you imagine hawks reading the redbull slogan and then getting an idea for a stupid video like just stick with me here..
Hawks, recording the can of redbull he’s holding: redbull gives you wings, huh? no way a drink could give me wings
the camera flips as it shows hawks drinking the redbull but he then looks at the screen and see’s his wings behind him, he acts scared and the video ends
OR for after he lost his quirk when he goes to flip the camera he finished his drink and then looks over his shoulder and suddenly looks annoyed as he mumbles “fucking liars”
Flower Shop/Tatoo Parlor AU where after the war Hawks takes to gardening as a coping mechanism and years after the war Dabi gets a job as a tattoo artist in the tattoo shop next to the flower shop Hawks now owns and they have to meet again when Dabi is getting flowers for his mom or sister or something. Then they keep awkwardly running into each other and Dabi realizes that Hawks's new flower shop is his family's favorite shop because they keep visiting it when they think he doesn't see them.
Then Dabi and Hawks become Touya and Keigo to each other and smooch :)
Jeanist: What's up, guys? I'm back. Dabi: What the- you can't be here. You're dead. I literally saw you die. Jeanist: Death is a social construct.
Inko: Hey, how are you doing today? Middle School Midoriya: Can we change the subject before I start crying?
Bakugo: Do you ever wonder why you're still single? Denki, eating mayonnaise straight out of a jar with a spoon: Yeah... I mean, I'm perfect! Who wouldn't want to date me? Bakugo, sighing: I can name a few people...
Kirishima: Don’t trust everything you see on the internet. Denki: Pfft. What possibly nonsense could come from the internet? Oh. Did you know that the Earth is actually flat? Kirishima: *Takes away B’s phone* Yeah, that enough for you.
Shoto, at Dabi's funeral: I need a moment with him. Everyone else at the funeral: Of course. *leaves* Shoto, leaning over Dabi's coffin: Okay, listen here you little shit. I know you're not dead. Dabi, sitting up in the coffin: Yeah, no shit.
Shoto: What is wrong with you? Dabi: Loaded question. Elaborate.
Tomura: PEASANT. I REQUIRE SUSTENANCE. Kurogiri: You know there are other ways to say you want McDonalds. Tomura: FOUL PLEBEIAN. YOU DARE SPEAK AGAINST ME— Kurogiri: sigh What do you want? Tomura: Chicken nuggets please.
Denki: *watching their house burn down* Denki: Denki: *starts filming* Waddup, guys, welcome to my vlog, today's topic: how to get away with accidentally committing arson because you forgot Spaghetti O's cans are metal and thus non-microwavable! Step one: deny everything.
Toga: When I see initials carved into a tree with a heart I think it’s so romantic. Two lovers on a date… one of them carrying a knife for some reason.
Mr. Compress: Twice, Toga, I love y’all and all, but can I ask what in the hell are you doing? Toga, trying to stabilize a tower of folding chairs that B is sitting atop: Oh nothing much. Twice: I love you too :)
Endeavor: What goes up but never comes down? Natsuo: The amount of stress you're bringing to this family.
Dabi: *coughs blood* Shoto: Don't die, Touya! Dabi: Don't tell me what to do!
Tomura: How’s practice going? Himiko: Terrible. I want to stab everybody there. Tomura: Okay, just don’t get any blood on your clothes. Mr. Compress: …you shouldn’t be condoning this. Tomura: Don’t tell me how to live my life.
Incorrect quotes keep me alive so expect more
So many Hawks headcanons and AUs to yap about and also the selfish need to keep them to myself until I can post writing about said headcanons and AUs because I'm a stingy stingy girl who would love for people to use my ideas but only after I get to use them
We toxic but only passive aggressively in this house
