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.
Mmm Hawks
I’ve been around for a really long time in various fandoms, and no one ever writes this stuff down. I’ll start. Please add to the list. We can’t expect people to follow “rules” they don’t know exist.

if you like something, reblog it. Help the artist get their work out there in front of more people. Share the joy that it brought you.
if you want more of it, support it. This can be via commissions, reblogs, recommending the artist to other people, shouting in the tags, or sending the artist asks/messages.
if you hate it, keep scrolling. Keep the hate in a message window with a friend, not in the artist’s notes.
if you want to use it, ask permission. Artwork is beautiful and you want to show it off. But please ask the artist before you throw it into your header or your icon.
if you use it, give credit. And not just a post where you say “Do you like my new icon? X made it!”. Put it in your blog description, that way when someone rolls around your blog three months from now, they also know where your icon/header came from.
if you like something, reblog it. Help the author get their work out there in front of more people. Share the joy that it brought you.
if you want more of it, support it. Kudos are fine, but if you want more of the thing you like, you should comment. Subscribe to the story or the author. Send them a message about how much you like what they wrote.
if you read it, kudos it. Or give it a thumbs up. And this is just if you managed to get all the way to the end. If you finished the story and you actually liked it? Comment and reblog.
don’t demand content. Be patient. Stories take time. You can encourage without being demanding. Show your love for what’s there without telling them to post more often.
be gentle with criticism. Some people want it and some people run away from it. If you don’t know what type of person the author is, it’s best not to go there. “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything.”
ship and let ship. You love your ship and other people love theirs. No one needs to “win” when we’re all going to end up in tears anyway.
if you hate it, stay out of the tag. This has two meanings: 1) don’t deliberately put hateful commentary in a tag and 2) if you hate a tag, don’t go and read through that tag just to make yourself angry
if someone makes you something, appreciate it. Read and comment the fic. Like and reblog the artwork. Pimp it out and tell them how much you loved it. It’s a gift, treat it like one.
if it’s a gift, put some effort into it. You signed up for that exchange three months ago and now it’s a week before you have to send the gift and you don’t have the time or the inclination to do the thing. Well too bad. Someone out there has been working hard in your gift, so you should do the same for them.
none of us are “better” than anyone else. We’re all trash for our particular show/film/book/ship/artist/what-have-you. My fave is no better than yours and yours is no better than mine.
actors are not their characters. They are people. Treat them like people.
I wonder if Hawks ever had a proper education or if he learned via private tutors/teachers. And if he was tutored, just how much did they teach him?
(Pardon my typos, been drinking)
Should I release chapters one by one? In segments or release the whole fic, completed? I just finished chapter 2, now going on to chapter 3. The fic is planned to be 10 chapters long, but I'm trying to make it long, so its at least worth the read, ya know? I had to do a bit of research with the story, since fey/fae/whatever you wanna call it, aren't really a Japanese thing, BUT HEY is an AU for a reason, and its my interpretation of fey as well. So yeah.
Im at 3k words, with chapter 1 and 2 so far, chapter 2 being longer than chapter 1. I already planned what each chapter would be about, so yeah. Reader doesnt make an appearance until chapter 3 and beyond. Why? Because world building, thats why. I wanna make sure y'all as readers have a least a bit of enrichment, enrichment? is that the word I mean? i dunno. Make sure y'all have at least some understanding to the world is all.
FOR THE RECORD, it will NOT be stated where the reader is from, obviously this fic isnt based in japan, so yeah, where ever you wanna be based from, is up to you. Cuz writing allows me to do that. (I'm gonna have such a bad hangover I just know it.) ANYWAYS, heres a lil preview of like, chapter 2 or some shit:
I wanna like... scream my mind, but its 6 AM and folk are asleep, so instead we listen to music and play a dinosaur game. OKay, I'll make a poll later, if I remember
F.Hawks: pfft, this is my first time playing this game. Are you sure your not letting me win on purpose? I got green. Soon I will reach the end before you, if you keep going easy on me!
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.
I love that my tumblr auto sets my Hawksinacup blog for everything, even when I am on my Hawksinabowl blog and have everything set for the Hawksinabowl blog. Gotta love it
Was in a drawing mood so I decided to draw Hawks
I absolutely suck at drawing Hawks, so I tend to draw him in a more rough style.
I LOVE your C. Hawks vs F. Hawks posts! It’s so funny to see how use-to fanon hawks I am when all your posts on him feels like something I’ve read before, but with canon it feels so new to me cause I never see him canon-written! ❤️ If requests are okay, what about in a romantic situation? 🤔 Maybe asking you out in a date and how both would go about it?
Lets see here... let's go with you are NOT a hero, you have been friends with Hawks for about a year now, and in that span, he has caught feelings.
Canon Hawks is a helpless romantic that has no idea what he is actually doing, but is trying his best. He doesn't want to ruin his first relationship, and doesn't want to lose you either. He has tried those magazine quizzes, advice online, even asked his friends about relationship advice, which didn't help. He sees you walk by and gets nervous, buy steels his nerves as you say hello. He greets you back, and asks what you are up too. After doing so, he looks around to make sure no one is within earshot. He doesn't need paparazzi and crazy teenage fans tearing him a new one. You notice him looking around, and ask if he is okay. He laughs it off and says, of course he is. As you two talk for a bit about ya'lls day (pardon my southern), he then asks if you are busy the next day. You wonder why asks, but realize his wings are down to nubs for he had recently gone through a tiresome search and rescue mission. Saying yes, he then proceeds to straight up ask you on a date. He doesn't beat around the bush either, he says a nice dinner, a movie, maybe even an amusement park, not all in that order of course. You are taken back by him asking you out, and ask why a date? He tells you he has no self control over what he wants, he saw you and wanted to be with you, but didn't want to scare you off. The practiced response you knew very well. You thought about it for a bit before accepting. He gives you a genuine smile and walks with you as the two of you continued to plan the date. A weight is lifted off his chest and his nerves die down, but not entirely. He is still nervous about the date, and tells you to tell him if you feel he is moving too fast. He does not want to make you uncomfortable in the slightest, and he does not want to act as if he knows what he is doing. He is honest when he says he knows little to nothing about dating due to working constantly and his days off are him resting, or out with his hero friends. He always has to keep up his image and isn't a fan of people treating him like his untouchable idle, or a man with the world in his palms. He tells you, that you treat him as a person, as a human being, which he truly appreciates. Hearing these things aren't new to you, as he has told you before, but it always surprises you that his response never changes. Before you two could continue conversation, a crowd of fans come by and you are pushed aside as the rampant teens and 20 somethings bombard him with compliments, questions and requests. You chuckle, used to it and wait nearby for him to finish tending to his fans.
Vs.
Fanon Hawks has gone and dated almost all of Japan by this point, yet he is very drawn to you of all people. He has dated other models, celebrities, even a few other heros, but is still enamored by you than all of them. He sees you walk by and he flies down to you, greeting you as he lands by your side. You greet him back, and already his is flirting with you, calling you pet names and asking if you are free tomorrow. You know that it's his day off tomorrow and luckily you are off work too. Saying yes, he smiles and suggests a date at a local amusement park. You raise a brow at his suggestion, knowing he wants to sleep with you. He has tried many different ways to get into your pants, all failing. However you would be surprised to say the least, seeing him take the romantic approach. You were curious about it and told him yes, on one condition. He asks what it was, and you tell him that you aren't sleeping. He blinks for a minute before he bursts laughing. He knew that was going to be the condition considering he his many advances. Shaking his head, Hawks proceeds to tell you that he rather it be a date-date, and that he actually wants to spend time with one of his best friends. Rolling your eyes, you agree, which makes his wings flutter and his smile wider. You two continue to walk as you plan the date. You knew that people would see it as him trying to get into another girl's pants, but he didn't see it that way. He didn't want you to see it that way either. Knowing Hawks for a year, you can tell when he is joking and when he is serious. Him asking you on this date, you knew he was serious. Deciding to treat it as a proper date, you think about what to wear when your are torn from your thoughts by a group of fans crowding Hawks. Some of his fans giving you dirty looks, and you being able to hear them talk about you in negative ways. You were used to it by now, in fact, its why Hawks couldn't keep a relationship for more than a week. His fans were ruthless and their online gossip was brutal. Hawks was happy you stuck around after the first month of being friends, and always apologized when things like this happened. You would always reassure him its fine, and he usually feels bad about it anyways. You decided to wait by a nearby bench and scroll through social media as he tended to his fans. You laughed to yourself once more. The infamous Hawks, genuinely asking you on a date, and no him wanting you to ruffle his feathers in bed. How interesting.
Look at the boys!
Some old DabiHawks sketches
C.Hawks: Avoiding fans and just trying to get home can be really tiresome.
F.Hawks: Why avoid them? I love my fans!
C.Hawks: I love my fans too, but after a long day, all i want to do is relax and drink a nice cup of coffee.
F.Hawks: Then go to a cafe.
C.Hawks: Even at a cafe, I'd still be recognized and pestered.
F.Hawks: Aren't you supposed to be an optomist?
C.Hawks: Jeez, sorry for wanting time to myself and not spend my entire life wearing a mask to please the public.
F.Hawks: Okay okay, point taken.
