would you look at that, more fluffy + dating hcs, but this time for our resident KFC lover <3
- first things first: he's gotten SO sick and tired of the "are you a cannibal bc you eat chicken" joke and literally just sobs on the inside every time someone genuinely thinks they're being funny 😐
- his partner is an exception tho
- tbh, his partner is an exception to A LOT of things
- "[y/n], y'know there's a law that says that you're not allowed to use your quirk in public recreationally?"
- "DO I LOOK LIKE I GIVE A DAMN, JUST GIVE ME A PIGGYBACK AND FLY GODDAMNIT!"
- he's actually a really good citizen??
- whether it's because of the pressure to be perfect, or because he genuinely feels great when he uses his feathers to pick up lingering trash and help the local newspaper kid distribute their papers
- this means he is GREAT housewife material
- h̶a̶w̶k̶s̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶s̶u̶b̶m̶i̶s̶s̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶b̶r̶e̶e̶d̶a̶b̶l̶e̶
- even if it's for lack of self-confidence reasons, he feels worth when doing something, especially for his partner, so his main love language is acts of service
- it's also because he's touch deprived AF and and doesn't have enough time in his day to spend with his partner to be prevalent in the other types of love languages
- however, the relationship is going to be rough at first
- like... REALLY rough
- less on the fluffy side, but hawks is the type to be instinctively toxic, like he'll try to shut out his future s/o once they know him too well because he's terrified of having his walls torn down
- it takes a LOT more than just "i love you hawks *kith*" for him to truly love someone back and be ready for commitment
- i also hc him as demiromantic-bisexual, with a slight preference for men. there's just something fruity abt him, yk?🥱
- he and mirko go to the gym together and she spends the entire time making fun of him for his scrawny legs and arms 😭😭
- i strongly believe the following and there is absolutely nothing you can do to convince me otherwise:
- he is a bird
- he thus has bird characteristics, such as not being able to see glass and being attracted to shiny objects
- no i mean he literally sees a small piece of gold wrapper and boom, he's pocketing it and creating a collection
- his partner would lovingly point it out and he simply goes "BUT IT'S SO SHINY???"
- his s/o lets him continue bc they find it adorable
- he also molts 😕
- IT'S FRIKKIN ANNOYING
- it doesn't affect his job all that much since, when hawks molt, the feathers tend to fall a few at a time, so they can still fly and stuff
- BUT
- THEY'RE EVERYWHERE
- In the kitchen
- In bed
- In the couch
- In the soba he made for dinner ⁉⁉⁉⁉
- his partner gets so pissed eventually that they tell him that he's not allowed to go to work unless he cleans up first (giving off milf/dilf vibes ngl)
- and he's like "ya ya sure ok"
- LITERALLY THE NEXT DAY THERE'S A BUILDING ON FIRE AND HE'S ON CALL WITH THE POLICE TRYING TO EXPLAIN TO THEM THAT HE'S GOING TO BE A BIT LATE BC HIS PARTNER NEEDS HIM TO CLEAN UP THE FEATHERS
- when he's not molting, he does love to have his feathers petted (petted? pat? putted? uhh-), especially when he wakes up or as he's about to go to sleep
- pure bliss for him is waking up by his partner's side and feeling fingers softly drag down his wings and ruffled gently
- he will sigh happily and then bury his face in his partner's chest and hold them close
- if he does this, it's basically his way of saying "i'm not getting out of bed for the rest of the day and there's nothing anybody can do about it"
- after a while, his partner starts to realize this, and just pulls him close, stroking his hair instead of his feathers and using the other hand to press his back forwards to bridge whatever gap might've been between them.
- little spoon, but is alright with big spoon as well. just as long as he gets his daily dose of cuddling 🥰
- hawks also LOVES those quick, tiny kisses on his nose and forehead, especially if they're out of nowhere
- doesn't get flustered easily but if you kiss him in the middle of his sentence he'll just meltdown on the spot
- "i'm going to go get some coffee, wanna come wit-"
- his partner just l u n g e s at him and muah
- for the next two minutes, he's 🕴
- then he realizes what just happened and evolves into 😳
- it doesn't matter how many times this happens, it just flusters him every single time and awakens the butterflies in his stomach
- hawks also cuts his own hair at home
- at first, it looked AWFUL
- then he started getting the hang of it over time
- now he could be a literal professional hairstylist, and will do his partner's hair as well
- won't admit it out loud but he loves it when little kids put his hair into two high ponytails and use a bunch of pink clips and smother his face in makeup
- speaking of kids...
- he wants some
- like,, BADLY
- the moment he lets down his guard in front of his partner, he'll start to get way more intimate with them and think long term. ofc he'll take his time before getting there, but that doesn't stop him from daydreaming about it
- it doesn't matter if it's getting his partner pregnant or adopting a kid, he just has this kind of maternal instinct to protect a child and give them a childhood that's better than his own (milf hawks 👺)
- he doesn't say this explicitly tho, and will just sort of dance around the topic for a long time
- if he does manage to get this through, and get his partner on board and a few years later they're full-on parents, he'll have daily competitions with his child over who can get their other parent's attention
- loves the child with all his being and starts to make sure the HPSC doesn't put him on dangerous missions unless absolutely necessary
- he tries his best to keep his work life and private life separate, mostly out of concern for their safety and also not wanting the HPSC to get their hands on them
- he gets jealous REALLY easily when it comes to his date
- but he's also chill about it
- if he sees someone flirting with his partner, he'll just flutter in like a mf angel and then wrap an arm around their shoulders and kiss them on the cheek. if seeing the number 2 hero so close to someone isn't enough of a hint to tell you to go flirt elsewhere, then what WILL be?
- only person who gets away with flirting with his partner is mirko bc hawks knows that she's a good person and wouldn't pull anything dirty, and i believe they have a nice (platonic) relationship
- his fanbase requires a lot of effort, so in order to keep all the s̶i̶m̶p̶s̶ fans happy, he created a social media account and posts quite frequently, the most boring things but it keeps people going ig??
- he'll post a literal picture of a rock (this was a dare from his s/o) and everyone started FREAKING OUT
- "WHERE CAN I FIND THIS SEXY ASS ROCK THAT CAUGHT THE HAWKS' ATTENTION???"
- his partner ended up selling it for 5 thousand yen to a hardcore fangirl online 💀💀💀
