Request: Can I get a bnha matchup please? ;u; I'm a transman, 165 cm, 20 and bi/pan with no gender preference. I'm usually quiet/reserved, monotone/boring when spoken to, but once a subject of interest is brought up, or when im with someone I'm comfy with, my personality does a 180 - I'm loud, sarcastic, and annoying. My sense of humor is all over the place lol Ive been told that I'm "old in spirit" bc I'm really mature when I need to be, even if most of the time I act like I'm 5 lmaoo

I'm pretty chill for the most part, idc what u do as long as it's not hurting anybodyhdjdh im also rlly stubborn but a huge pushover, dunno how that works. I'm both carefree and a worrywart (to both others and myself) and I typically hold my emotions in cause I don't wanna bother others. I try to help others 24/7, even if it affects me negatively. Uhh physically speaking im a lot stronger then look, and I own literally no nice clothes lol its all graphic Ts, cargo pants and hoodies for me

I'm a huge ass nerd when it comes to anything science related, especially paleontology + herpetology. I love all animals (no phobias) and I have 3 snakes whom I adore. I also like to draw and write occasionally. I have severe MDD and SAD, so even with meds I can have really bad depressive episodes and/or panic attacks. This is getting super long so I'll stop now fjfkh thank you !! Sorry if I repeated info I got a shit memory

Before I start, I personally have no experience with MDD or SAD, but I did look up both disorders and I hope that what I wrote about them is okay. If you’d like to correct me, please feel free to do so ^^ 

I’m sorry that this is so long lol, but I wanted to discuss as many things you noted as possible ^^ Hope you enjoy it!! ^^

Reminder that as of right now, requests are closed!

I ship you wiiiith

Hawks!

Your personality reminds me of a rainbow in a way? So, I feel like Hawks would never ever find a day boring with you! Since he has this whole thing of people calling him fast etc, I lowkey get the idea that that also applies to his personal relationships, so having someone with so many fun personality traits is perfect for him.

I think Hawks is mature in a way, just like you are. I mean, he started his own agency at 18 and a few years later he is the number 3 Hero, that definitely does something to you. So I think it’s nice to him that you are the same, while also remaining carefree most of the time. It makes his busy and serious life a bit more fun.

Your chill attitude is yet another thing Hawks loves, since he wants to be that way as well. Also, with his job, he most likely can’t always tell you everything about it for safety reasons. As for whether it’s hurting people… He can’t always promise you he won’t do that, but he will let you know it’s always with good intentions. Villains can’t always be defeated with just talking to them.

It kind of warms his heart when you are worried about him. I don’t think Hawks is really the type to fall in love easily, so if he had any relationships before meeting you they may not always have been genuine. While part of him likes it, he also doesn’t want you to worry. He always promises to come back, and it does make him a bit more careful when patrolling, because the last thing he wants to do is upset his wonderful boyfriend.

Now, when it comes to you keeping in your emotions, this is where it gets a bit difficult. I don’t know exactly how much time you two will be able to spend together, so he may not always be able to be there for you when you’re having a hard time. However, while Hawks appears to be chill, he’s also smart and analytic and notices when you are feeling down. He won’t force you to tell him what is wrong as he knows it’s hard for you, but he does reassure you that you’d never ever bother him and he will always listen to whatever you have to say. However, if it seems to go on for a long time, he might push you a bit more, simply because he knows keeping it in won’t do any good. But also here he can tell when it really gets too much, so if you still won’t tell him, he will be a little hurt, but definitely stop.

He thinks you’re the sweetest person ever, but he also worries about your well-being at times. If he sees you absolutely exhausted but still telling him everything is fine, he will just scoop you up and go somewhere so you can relax for a bit. Sorry not sorry :p

He thinks it’s kinda hot that you’re stronger than you may seem heh, like if you work out or just do something that requires strength and he sees it, he might make a flirty remark about it and appear chill but on the inside he lowkey panics because uhm what how is his boyfriend so attractive???? explain?

I don’t think Hawks cares that much about what you wear really, if you feel comfortable in it that’s all that matters. You could literally wear a potato sack and he will think you’re the most attractive person on the planet. He might even spoil you a little by buying you hoodies and other clothing which he knows you would love. And no, he won’t let you give it back, it’s yours.

I can’t really see Hawks being super interested in paleontology or herpetology, but he won’t mind you rambling about those things to him! While he might not always focus 100% on what you’re actually saying, he will study your face, smiling at how your eyes are lighting up and your lips are curled in a happy smile as you go on and on about it. If you catch him not listening to you, he will just make a remark related to your beauty, partly to see how you react and partly because he genuinely means it.

So you love animals? Bird boi is perfect for you, now he sees why you fell for him ;). He definitely likes birds, i don’t think he particularly adores any animals but I can see him strongly disliking some mammals like cats and dogs (I think these sometimes eat birds sooooo yeah..) He definitely thinks your snakes are pretty cool.

Hawks doesn’t seem like much of a reader, but he would definitely love to see your drawings! He thinks every single one of them is super awesome, and if you ever give one to him, he will definitely make sure it gets a special place in his house, a place where he can look at it easily whenever he misses you or just feels like it.

As for your MDD and SAD, at first Hawks will be clueless on how he can help you out. If you have a depressive episode that causes you to isolate yourself, he will definitely force you to go outside. It could be just walking to his place, or taking you on a nice flight at night over the city. Afterwards, he will bring you to your favourite restaurant or buy you food that he knows you love. You will also definitely be showered in lots of love and affection. If you’re uncomfortable with PDA however, he will only do it when you two are alone. He will also joke around and flirt with you just to see you smile, but if he sees it doesn’t help he will stop.

Same goes with your anxiety attacks, at first he’s completely lost on what to do. Hawks isn’t stupid of course, but he’s aware that every person is different. If he finds out about this before you have an attack, he will ask you what would help you in situations like that. However, if this happens without him knowing about it at all, he can recognise what’s happening and will do his best to get you to calm down first before talking about it with you. Hawks may not always seem like the most serious guy, but when it comes to you he’s dead serious and always careful. 

So, you’d be very lucky to have someone like him by your side :) Once Hawks is in a relationship, he will give his all. And any moment with him is definitely far from boring

Greyhounds, Goon and G'days

For the past six weeks I've been making my way down the east coast of Australia on the good old Greyhound bus. The journeys have been looooong, like very long, like up to 15 hours each time! To save money on accommodation, I've been pulling the oldest trick in the 'How To Save Money As A Traveller' book and done them all through the night. Unlike New Zealand, most places are so far away in Aus and when you look outside the window on any stretch of the coast, there really isn't much to look at but when you reach your destination you begin to realise why soooo many people choose to visit this country. I flew to Brisbane first and caught up with a few friends including one I met in America and the other I'd met in Hebden Bridge UK back in July. She kindly put me up for a few days and it was an amazing start to my adventure in Australia. I got to experience the buzzing atmosphere, the amazing shops (Tree Of Life being my personal favourite Australian chain) and the free, city hopper ferry. I would definitely recommend South Bank as being the best attraction of the centre. Finally we had a trip to the beautiful Sunshine Coast and I learnt that a Blue Bottle in Australia is not the insect we know it as back home but a stinging jelly fish, which viciously wraps its tail around you before stinging! Luckily I managed to dodge them but equally wasn’t impressed by the sand crabs lurking around you whilst you sunbathed! I suppose the wildlife is what you have to put up with in Australia in general and amongst its coastal line. I then flew to Cairns and although I didn’t make much of the boozy, British cultured town itself, I still got to experience the Great Barrier Reef, which genuinely amazed me. A side note to Cairns.... if you are 25 and over try not to be tempted to stay at Gilligans you will feel old! Anyway back to the Reef! A lot of travellers on the trip decided to dive but I just chose to snorkel and Im really glad I did because when swimming in the reef, you look down and like looking through a window you literally see right to the bottom of the ocean floor anyway and all the wonderful fish and colourful choral. When snorkelling you can float along on a noodle and just chill out and its cheaper! On top of that I was lucky enough to swim with four big turtles and a barracuda fish, which at first glance I thought was a shark and its safe to say I was very relieved to find it wasn’t! I tried swimming with reef sharks in Fiji and it really wasn’t my thing lol Next stop and 14 hours later was Airlie beach. A pretty coastal town, which was much more atmospheric and picturesque than Cairns. I met a lot of lovely people in the hostel and on the first day we spent some time relaxing by the lagoon. A lot of northern Queensland coastal towns tend to have lagoons, free to use, which sit right in the centre. In my opinion it is very necessary for the towns to have them as the temperature far north can be stifling hot and very humid! A few days later I went on a two day one night boat trip to the amazing Whitsundays. Ok so ill Start with the positives..... I couldn’t recommend a trip to Whitehaven beach enough. It was literally the most beautiful beach I have ever witnessed and looking down from the view point and taking that memorable picture of the swirling turquoise and white gold, it almost didn’t seem real. Whitehaven without a doubt was the best thing about the trip. The first day was filled with snorkelling, eating nice food and meeting other travellers, which was also a very lovely day.... but then came the night. If you are like me and don’t tend to research before a trip i.e. typing questions into google like 'what is it like to sleep on an adventure boat?' most of the time you will get away with it but sometimes it bites you on the ass! All night I felt like I was been cradled by a grizzly bare with so much strength you would think the boat was going to flip upside down at some points! Constant rocking side to side, which made me and some others feel like we were in a nightmare! So the point im trying to make is.... seasickness? Stick to a day trip! DO NOT sleep over! Up next was another main attraction of the east coast, Fraser Island. Fraser I have to say was so much fun and better than I expected! You and your selected group set out from Rainbow beach in a big 4 by 4 and get a ferry over to the island. Fraser is made entirely of sand so quite casually you spend your time there driving on it to get to each of the islands attractions. What I loved about Fraser was swimming in the lakes made entirely of spring water. The intense blue colours of them reminded me of the lakes I saw in New Zealand, except in Australia, the water is much warmer! The lazy river being one of my favs! You get to visit an old abandoned ship wreck and hike to the most beautiful view points. For three whole days I felt like I was part of a lovely family and with no signal on our phones, everyone just got to know each other so well and its safe to say a lot of drinking went down as each of the nights commenced! #goon The last part of my trip was spent visiting friends over the Christmas period. Stopping briefly in the hippy area of Byron Bay but mainly staying in Coogee Bay Sydney. Christmas day in Sydney was an unforgettable experience. It felt so wonderful but incredibly surreal. After being amazed by the cities attractions including the opera house, the bridge and the rocks etc and having Christmas dinner in Hard Rock Cafe, me and my friends made our way back to Coogee. Getting off the bus I was amazed to see the swarm of people covering the beach wearing bikinis and Santa hats, drinking their bags of goon and getting high. It was so weird to think of cold Britain and although I enjoyed my Aussy Christmas I wouldn’t change the way i normally experience it. After a week of visiting the beautiful beaches between Coogee and Bondi, visiting Manley, which I highly recommend and camping out NYE at 3pm for eight hours to see the spectacular fireworks right in the centre, i got on the greyhound and 14 hours later arrived at my last stop in Aus, Melbourne. A lot of travellers along the way have expressed their love of the city and I really understand why. There really isn’t a huge landmark like the opera house in Sydney but the unique, quirky atmosphere of Melbourne is something Sydney definitely doesn’t have. I just loved walking around and seeing how much choice there was for food and GOOD coffee. The side streets full of street art, which is constantly getting updated. At night I walked along the bridge to witness the colourful skyline and talented musicians busking on every street corner. The overall look and vibe to the city is something you definitely have to experience. One of my favourite spots in Aus by far and spent with a very good friend of mine to 😊 I also took a trip to St Kilda beach, which is a gorgeous spot in Melbourne that I highly recommend. Overall my six weeks in Australia, travelling completely independently has been a brilliant growing experience. There’s been a mixed bag of emotions, some sad but defiantly most of the time happy ones. The reason for this is when you get to the three month mark of travelling, you start to feel physically exhausted and the fact you are in such a hot climate doesn’t help. Moving around all the time carrying your heavy backpack and sleeping in bunk beds really does take its toll. With all that said, even though I would love the comfort of home sometimes, I would never trade this amazing experience. There is never a dull enough moment to make me want to go home as I know that moving around all the time means that no situation stays the same. I have had some days where I've been lonely and down but the next I've met people and had such a laugh. Its very important to not give up and to stick with it as the reward of travelling is seeing some of the most beautiful sights of the world and meeting people you would never normally have the chance of meeting. My time in Australia has also been a long chunk of my overall trip so including all of my experiences in this blog has been very tricky. So finally below I've listed the main things I've learnt about Aus! Enjoy and thanks for reading xxx Things I've learnt about Australia.... Don’t wear your hair in French plats! When travelling in hot heat, all you want to do is have your long hair out of your face. If you're planning on platting it like i did, make sure you put sun cream on your scalp! Yes I burnt all of my scalp sunbathing on the beach. Be careful! Be aware of hostel plugs! This is more a one off experience (and nothing to do with Aus) as I plugged my hairdryer into a plug in a hostel and got electricuted! I had to go in the back of an ambulance so they could take my heart rate etc. Not the way you want to start your night out! And its safe to say it didn’t do much for my travelling alone confidence. All was fine! So don't worry I'm ok! There is no shade on the Eastern beaches! When we go on holiday to Europe, its normal for us to hire out an umbrella and bed to protect ourselves from the harsh rays. But on probably one of the hottest coastal lines in the world... NOPE don’t expect to find them. In my opinion, I think its crazy and isn’t going to favour the countries skin cancer statistics. Everywhere I go in Aus, all I see is skin cancer clinics but the beaches arnt shaded??? Go figure 😂 There is never too much sun cream! Make sure you put a good amount on every morning and top up during the day. Its Australia, you will get burnt. Aus = LA! iv noticed that the Aussies are just as health conscious as LA people. There are so many health kick juice bars and breakfast places that sell muesli and acai bowls. If you are a health freak you certainly wouldn’t have a problem finding somewhere to eat here! Goon is the way to go! Its safe to say that Australia is one of the most expensive places to drink, except good old goon! A boxed wine which tastes like gone off apple juice but will get you very drunk is priced as little as 13 dollars! Aus has amazing wildlife! I stayed with a friend in countryside Victoria and was lucky enough to witness a field filled with kangaroos at sunset. It was a lovely moment. I also held a koala in one of those wild life places, which was also lovely but I only got to hold it for a millisecond just to get the picture as there was a queue of 20 odd tourists behind me waiting to take the same picture! Australia is only just over 220 years old! Yeh didn’t know that! Stay clear of Australian men! The ones iv met have been total freaks and I have come to the conclusion that the chat up lines are too vulgar to put on here! To sum it up, you could say that in terms of culture, the Australian east coast is a lot like Britain in the sun. There are probably more poms in Aus than Australians them selves. But the fact that you can drink from the streams and experience all the other wonderful things I’ve mentioned in this blog have always reminded me that I am most definitely on the other side of the world.
