Oh, little hero, keep acting like you’re better than me. Because deep down, we are the same. Fighting for what we believe is our truth.
"Oh but Touya was a Daddy's boy" YOU CAN PRY MAMA'S BOY TOUYA OUT OF MY COLD DEAD HANDS
Crying sobbing bawling throwing up
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.
Dabihawks angst save me save me dabihawks angst.
i think shipping culture is very centred around sexual intimacy, and sometimes just how good they look next to each other 😭 at least with some ships I've seen. It leads to some crazyyyy mischaracterization but that's another topic for another day
but i agreeeeeeeee, when it comes to ships i think more of how their dynamic plays out in different universes/ circumstances/ situations etc. because isn't it way more fun that way ?
i need you guys to understand i can get behind pretty much any ship as long as i can justify it. and i can justify a lot of things. i’m really good at that. i am not restrictive about the things i ship. and when i “ship” something i need you to know that (unlike the majority of humankind apparently) i am not thinking about sex. and without sex, the spectrum of romantic and platonic gets so incredibly gray that i personally do not feel like it’s worth distinguishing. in other words, when i say i “ship” something, i mean i believe these people have a very intimate bond that i think is worth exploring across a variety of contexts.
let me make this clear: labels are irrelevant to me. i am not distinguishing platonic ships vs romantic ships because without sex the difference is negligible to me. i am a big fan of casual (non-sexual) intimacy in relationships across the board ok.
so when i say “i love poly class A” i need you to understand that it is an incredibly complex web of dynamics that i cannot explain in simple words. i will have to write a million fics for you to understand it. but it allows me to explore multiple ships without having to distinguish universes or previous relationships, ok. it’s easier and a whole lot of fun.
i also have contradictory ships sometimes! endhawks and dabihawks, for example. those cannot exist simultaneously, but i do find them both compelling for different reasons (endhawks is more hawks and dabihawks is more keigo. it makes sense). cases like this do depend heavily on universe + characterization (aka how events preceding the ship have affected its existence) and i like to explore that. it’s interesting.
in short: i am very casual about shipping and i like lots of things! i am also not a sex-focused person or writer, so that has very little bearing on what i ship!! it’s about the emotional complexity and vulnerability and intimacy! those are the important things!!
thank you that is all

But I also know that there are many people who have humanity and a clean heart and will help despite all this.
🚨We ran out of bread again🚨
Hello my friend,🇵🇸
I hope you are well.🌷
My kids couldn't speak, just crying💔
How can I ask them why they cry when they are children who suffer from all human afflictions‼️
They suffer from malnutrition, a tent that does not protect against cold or heat after we lost our warm home, a cold that crushes their bones, no food, no education, no entertainment, no food or medicine.🥺
Children in a fragile state, sadness pouring from their eyes, and their tongue unable to speak.😥
Please help me get out of this difficult situation and provide bread for my children as soon as possible.
