    Summary

    Hawks' approach is languid, his expression is easy and open. Even knowing it's fake, Dabi can't see the cracks in the façade. Horrifying, really.

    "Hey," Hawks greets as he enters the shadow of the alley. He then proceeds to crash against the brick wall at a glacial pace, face smooshed up against the brick and his shoulders and torso slumping to follow.

    In half surprise, half genuine glee, Dabi cackles. Hawks' arm twitches at his side like maybe he'd flip Dabi off if he had the strength.

    Dabi's still chuckling when he asks, "How ya feelin', hero?"

    "Like shit," Hawks grumbles into the wall.

    "You look it," Dabi assures him, grinning and pulling out his phone. He came all this way; Hawks can afford to wait a minute while Dabi gets a few pictures.

    Trying to get a ride home from a party, Hawks misdials and gets Dabi. Dabi, thinking it'll be fun to see his "favorite hero" drunk out of his mind, agrees to help Hawks get home.

    Things get a lot less fun when Dabi realizes Hawks isn't drunk.

    Summary

    “Obviously Dabi will need to be reintegrated into society,” Hawks says. “Get a job. His own room and board. Granting the use of his quirk is a conversation in the far, far future—“

    “You want to have him work a civilian job?” Mera asks, aghast. “You want us to do that?”

    Hawks smiles gleefully. “He already has one. He’s my bodyguard.”

    Who else is going to protect him from Mera strangling him?

    --

    Hawks heard breakups with your exes are supposed to be less messy. He’s not doing a good job.

    Summary

    In the spring of 1817, Lord Touya Todoroki, the disgraced firstborn son of Duke Enji Todoroki of Sekoto, is quietly exiled to a remote northern estate. Once the pride of his family, he is now an embarrassment to be hidden, managed, and quietly forgotten.

    Keigo Takami is sent in as his "companion", a young man of humble birth and sharp ambition, promised rank and reward if he succeeds in taming the fallen heir. His instructions are simple: keep the boy alive, keep him quiet, and report everything.

    OR: how to reform a fallen lord, fail spectacularly, and fall in love instead.

    Summary

    “You might recognise this one folks—”

    A struggling man is dragged onto the stage and pushed to his knees.

    Touya throws back his last sip—

    “It’s our former Number Two. Say hello to your fans, Hawks!”

    —and almost chokes.

    Well, he’ll be damned. Of all the gin joints at the end of the world.

    Dabi burns himself to ash during the war.

    Touya wakes up late to the apocalypse, but just in time for a second chance.
